In 1964, Mr. Fore moved his family to the country, Irmo, SC, to have a better life for the family. Mr. Fore was a member of Salem United Methodist Church and was a Mason. More than anything, he loved his home and family and was deeply loved and respected. Each year he planted a beautiful garden that was harvested, canned and put up in the smoke house for winter.
