Llano ISD officially welcomes Mac Edwards this summer as the district’s superintendent of schools.
Although he is new to Llano ISD, he is not exactly new to Llano. Over the years, the Edwards family has been frequent visitors to Llano. His wife, Courtney Osbourn Edwards, is from Valley Spring, and they have been coming to town to visit her family for many years.
Mac Edwards was reared in the northeast Texas town of Paris.

Jake Gilligan and Rey Gonzalez, two young men from San Antonio, brought the dough, cheese, sauce, and toppings, and, oh, yes, a two-ton cooker, to make the biggest pizza most of us will ever eat — or see.
Franklin Smith thought it was a prank when he received a phone call last Friday declaring him Llano’s Luckiest Dad.
