While Valentine's Day may be just another day in the year for some, others rank the holiday right up there with Christmas, Easter and birthdays. One such person is Chris Kor negay, cartoonist for the Perquimans Weekly, whose growing "valentine" collection shows her great interest and enthusiasm for the holiday. She has been collecting " heart things" for nearly 20 years because she says, "I've always loved them." Her collection includes valentines, jewelry, boxes, dainty brie a brae, and other things which adorn the symbol of love. Kornegay says her mother, Borden Kelley of Raleigh, probably started the tradition years ago when the family awoke every Valentine's morn to find loving surprises at their bedsides. Continuing the tradition, each year Mrs. Kelley sends a box of Valen tine's Day surprises, many of them created by hand, for the Kornegay children to enjoy. From delicate satin covered candy boxes, to stuffed heart-shape mirrors, to "crazy" things like glittered magic heart wands, each item in the Kornegay collection carries its own endearing message. "One year she sent little hand painted satin heart necklaces for the children's teachers," said Kornegay, who managed to save one for her collection. The history of St. Valentine's Day and its customs is incomplete and no one really knows why the holiday was named for an early "Pope of Rome," who according to, William S. Walsh in his "Curiosities of Popular Customs," reported that St. Valentine was cast into jail for his religious beliefs where he cured his keeper's daughter of blindness and was subsequently beheaded. Another Valentine claimed the holiday, according to Walst>, who also had powers of healing, but choked to death on a fish bone. Valentine's Day is alluded to in the writings of both Shakespeare and Samuel Pepys, but according to Walsh, the custom probably is the Christianized form of the Lupercalia feast held each February 14 in Home. Walsh refers to sending valentines as an "expensive luxury," during the 18th century but by the early 19th century, valentines became an established tradition. Kornegay and her family do send valentines, but they are old ones that have been saved and treasured over the years. She explains that she, her mother and grandmother write new messages on the old valentines and send them over and over. "They watch for them each year," she said, "and they will say something if they think I'm holding one back!" Holidays are as special as people want to make them. St. Valentine's Day can be just an ordinary day or it can be a day for simple, unique and and loving traditions.
