More Than Medicine: Pharmacy Care That Feels Like Home in Pinetops
In the small town of Pinetops, North Carolina, community members often say that walking into Stallings Drug is like stepping into a place where everyone knows your name—and your needs. This warmth and familiarity are not happenstance but the result of Jessi Stallings' dedication to maintaining a pharmacy that feels like home. Her journey from pharmacist to owner of Stallings Drug is a testament to her commitment to personalized care and community service. Originally operating as Pinetops Pharmacy, the business transitioned to Stallings Drug in January 2025. Jessi, who had been a pharmacist there since 2021, saw an opportunity to continue the work she loved under her own stewardship. "I wanted to carry on the good work Pinetops Pharmacy had been doing for the local community," Jessi explains. Her story is not just about a change in ownership but about carrying forward a legacy of care. The decision to rebrand the pharmacy under the Stallings name was a nod to both ownership and local roots. Jessi’s husband’s family name is well-known in Edgecombe County, adding a layer of familiarity and trust. But it's not just the name that keeps customers coming back—it's the service that feels like a warm embrace.

An East Carolina University Police Department explosives detection dog died unexpectedly and was found Monday morning by her handler, the department announced. Brixi was an 8-year-old german shepherd and a member of the department since 2025, a news release said. Prior to her work with ECU, she worked for the U.S. State Department. According to ECU Police Chief Jason Sugg, Brixi had worked an athletic event Sunday and had no previous medical issues. Her handler, Officer Daniel Folk, checked on her around midnight and found her doing well, but discovered she had died in her bed at approximately 6:00 a.m., Sugg said. “Our condolences go out to her handler, Officer Daniel Folk and his family. Brixi was well loved as part of the Folk and ECUPD families,” Sugg said in the release.
