Rudolph and Hattie Powell are used to being on the go, but are busy now from the safety of their home in the West End. Mrs. Powell is a retired Richmond teacher and Mr. Powell is the retired director of 4-H programs in Virginia and a contributing photographer at the Richmond Free Press. “We make more phone calls to church and organization members and send a lot of cards and emails to the sick and bereaved,” the couple said. Because of the pandemic, they have “more time to listen to music, read and FaceTime with the grandchildren.”

Ashley Williams, with her dog, Sebastian, a pit bull-spaniel mix, on the front porch of her East End home, is happy to stay in during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her family, she says, has experienced health scares in recent weeks, both related and unrelated to the coronavirus. “I have always valued family and friends, yet the communication with loved ones is even more cherished than before,” said the founder of BareSOUL Yoga. The experience also has shifted how she connects with people and the community — through online offerings and resources. The silver lining? “I am able to appreciate, explore and enjoy my home.”

She likes that the world has slowed down. “We’re becoming humane,” she said. “I hope we get from this a heightened sense of senses ... I hope we continue to feed one another with truth.
