Nikki Byers and Ian Byers
StoryLine is a volunteer-led effort to collect the stories of everyday people in Forsyth County. Stories were collected via the StoryLine bus, a mobile recording studio that travels throughout the community. This week: In 1994, Nikki Byers suddenly found herself a single mother of 9 children. In a conversation with her son, Ian, Nikki describes how being the sole provider unearthed her inner strength.
