The cover feature, “Cacophony and Clare Coyle Taylor,” profiled a local musical talent, celebrating the artistry and personality behind the sound — the kind of creative portrait the magazine returned to when spotlighting the makers who give Clarksville its character.
“365 Things” offered readers a year's worth of ideas and inspiration to spark activity and discovery, while “Are Flips a Flop?” brought a skeptical look at a trend of the day. “Helping Children Grieve” approached a tender subject with compassion, giving parents guidance on supporting kids through loss, and the health pages addressed oral-disease risks for children with special needs alongside a Financial Focus feature.
The recurring departments round out a May number that celebrates the arts while tending to family life's harder moments — a local musician's profile and a year's worth of inspiration beside compassionate guidance on helping children grieve, the joyful and the tender together.
Pamela Magrans's profile of Clare Coyle Taylor turned on a single terrible day. At 34, Taylor was a wife, a mother of two boys and a budding local artist, happy with her life — until one day in October 2004, her husband suffered a fatal heart attack in their driveway just after helping her unload paintings. In the years since, her love for her sons and her passion for painting had proved to be exactly what held the family together.
