Posted Mar 16, 2019
A year after the death of the man long known as the voice of the Tar Heels, his wife has found a new mission. Jean and Woody Durham had been together since they were 16 years old. "We were married 54 years, 8 months and 11 days," Jean Durham said. "I feel very fortunate to have had such a treasured soul mate for as many years as I did."
