Busta’s Person of the Week: After 23 years, The Boss Lady’s annual Toy Drive continues to bring joy to Triad families

This year’s toy drive will be held on Tuesday Dec. 19 By Busta Brown Mrs. Anita Dean Arnette, affectionately known as “The Boss Lady of Gospel,” is no stranger to the Triad community. Over the past 35 years, the proud wife and mother has given her audience love, inspiration, and hope. The Boss Lady of Gospel Radio has graced audiences throughout the country and has won numerous awards as well. One of Dean-Arnette’s favorite quotes is “Love isn’t love until you give it away.” The legendary radio personality has been giving love away to Triad families during the Christmas holidays for 23 years.  I was curious to learn more about what contributed to her generous spirit and how her annual Toy Drive began. Why do you continue to do the Toy Drive? I continue to do the Toy Drive because it is part of my ministry. God laid it upon my heart back in 2000 to start a toy drive here at the radio station because so many agencies closed early and children in our communities were left out. I wanted to see the children blessed at Christmas in my community. What gifts can children expect from your toy drive?...
