More than 30 of Emily Harris’ co-workers and friends from Beaufort Memorial Hospital gathered last week at the Distant Island home of Sallie Stone in order to celebrate the pending arrival of her first child, baby boy William Holland Harris. Emily is the associate marketing director at Beaufort Memorial and is due mid-October. Emily and her husband Patrick live on Lady’s Island and are avid boaters, so the festivities had a nautical theme, right down to the cookies.
