HEMINGWAY, S.C. (WBTW) -- After nearly a decade, Susan Tyler’s vision is finally coming together: a home for women who have nowhere else to turn.

"Because God can make a difference in anybody's life,” Tyler said.

For years, she has brought that message to women in area jails and prisons. That’s what made her realize these women need something more if they want to get out and stay out.

"Most of these women suffer with drug and alcohol addiction, and in order to get free from that, then you've got to have a different environment to live in,” She said.

Tyler said many of the women she spent time with would get out of jail, but it was only a matter of time before they were back. After picking one woman up for church and seeing the conditions she lived in, she realized why so many fall back into old habits.

    Hamilton loves books about unicorns, storms, and cubicles. He lives in Waco with his cat named Mr. Bojangles. Before his work as an attorney, Hamilton was a leprechaun chaser. His all-time record is three pots of gold at the end of the rainbow. He was forced to give up the gold in a dispute with a rival hobbit. He spends his free time tripping out on the smallest details, none of which are important He likes doing the things with the ball and scoring the points. He pays attention to the green of your eyes, even when it is not Saint Patrick’s Day. He is not Irish. Hamilton Lindley has fun plans for people in need. Whether your need a dreamcatcher for your dreams or a tape dispenser to put your life back together, he can be there for you to yell at. There are times when it is surprising that he has any friends at all. But thankfully he does have a few. He drives a Dodge Stratus. People respect him, except at home.
