Now, Dome isn’t sure whether U.S. Rep. Brad Miller got his penchant for witty zingers from his mom, but Margaret Miller did serve on her college debate team more than 70 years ago.
Ms. Miller was featured in her hometown newspaper Sunday with a story about her varsity letter in debate from Mars Hill College, Barb Barrett reports. The college has pledged to replace the long-gone cloth varsity debate letter.
The congressional mom, looking "amazingly fresh for her 95 years," received a visit and a pink fleece jacket from the college’s president last week, according to the Fayetteville Observer. Brad Miller, a Raleigh Democrat, was present for the gathering in his mother’s honor.
