McCarty recalls Salvation Army ties and youth memories

McCarty says he did not see himself as special, recalling a rough past in Aiken County. He lived at the Salvation Army Lodge on Horry Street for over a year amid his parents split, part of a tambourine crew that aided drinkers before they spent money. Annette Heath credits him for helping the community through tough times and calls him a wonderful volunteer.

Union density is low in Greenville, with about 1 percent of nonagricultural workers unionized. Upstate manufacturing pays 39 percent more than nonmanufacturing areas, yet faces job losses as factory jobs decline nationwide.
