Some stories of resilience are written in boardrooms, but others are forged in far tougher places. For Jeremy Hornack, owner of JMH Land Management, the path from soldier to entrepreneur has been one of grit, sacrifice, and an unshakable commitment to doing things the right way. His journey from a Jacksonville childhood, to the deserts of combat, to the thriving landscapes of Palm Coast is proof that even the hardest challenges can give rise to something lasting — both for the man and the community he serves.

The Yacuzzis moved to Palm Coast 7 years ago from Worcester, MA. Angela was formerly an accountant, now retired, and Vinny was self-employed as a stone mason and now works full-time for Bass Pro Shops in Daytona.
Angela’s friend Andea lived here in Palm Coast, and the last time they visited her, Vinny said, “Put the house on the market, we are moving to Florida”. When they bought their house, the front yard was totally empty.
Angela became a member of The Garden Club at Palm Coast, where she acquired much knowledge on how to grow succulents and other varieties of cactus. She also joined the East Coast Bromeliad Society, where she procures the plants and Vinny plants and maintains them.
Vinny’s really the one who plants everything! He enjoys creating and designing new garden areas. He even has an area out back dedicated to his potted plants, and it features a sign that reads, “Vinny’s Pot Herb Garden…Plant Smiles…Grow Love.”
The front island features a pygmy date palm, prickly pear cactus, a myriad of succulents, a large variety of bromeliads, pink, red, and yellow crown of thorns, three dracaena trees, and yellow and red roses.
Going towards the back yard, there are golden dewdrops, Texas bluebells, tillandsia, oyster plants, ponytail pal, large starfish cactus, crinum lily, palm lily (Cordyline Rubra), agapanthus, angel trumpet, scarlet firespike, and bird of paradise. Vinny has also made a workbench where he propagates plants to add to his gardens!

Flagler Schools Bids Farewell to SRD Michael Spinelli After 25 Years of Service.
Palm Coast, FL — Flagler Schools proudly honors the retirement of Flagler County Sheriff’s Office Master Deputy and School Resource Deputy (SRD) Michael Spinelli, who has dedicated more than 25 years to serving and protecting Florida communities, including the past four years at Rymfire Elementary School.
On his final day, students, staff, and families at Rymfire came together to celebrate SRD Spinelli’s unwavering commitment, compassion, and steady presence. His impact on the school community has been immeasurable — providing not only safety and security, but also mentorship, encouragement, and care to every student and faculty member he served.
“Deputy Spinelli has been more than an officer on campus — he has been a trusted role model, a listening ear, and a friend to our children and staff. We are deeply grateful for his service and wish him every happiness in his well-earned retirement.”
As he closes this chapter, Flagler Schools extends its heartfelt gratitude to SRD Spinelli for his years of dedication to law enforcement and to the students of Flagler County. His legacy of service will continue to inspire long after his retirement.
Thank you, SRD Spinelli! We wish you an amazing retirement.
