Letters

It was appropriate to publish Michael Jedson’s letter (and super pile of propaganda,) “Facts, without the whining and ranting,” on Super Bowl Sunday. There is enough no-fact information there to tax even Snopes’ capability. Even Phil Noble could not match this pile of falsehoods.

I would like to give a special thanks to all of the churches, schools, organizations and individuals that participated in the Shoebox for Senior’s project in December 2014.

This project, sponsored by the Lancaster County Council on Aging, continues to grow more and more each year. The gifts that we receive are sent out to our home-delivered meal clients and if there are enough gifts we also give gifts to our group dining clients.

We truly thank each and everyone of you who played a part in bringing so many smiles and miracles to 78 children and 38 families this past Christmas through Gonzie’s Miracle Bike Ministry.

Each year, we experience and personally witness many touching stories to share.

I try to the best of my ability to treat folks fair and honest and to have open arms whenever there is a need to meet.

Take this one, for example: Before Christmas, one family member who came by the shop and “wanted” five “new” bicycles.

‘Lousy job’ on road repair

I would like to let it be known that Lancaster County made some kind of repair at the corner of U.S. 521 and River Road.

When the workers were done, they just filled the hole with gravel and did not fill the hole all the way.

There are holes big enough to knock a hubcap off, and there are edges where they cut the road that could bust a tire. They did a very lousy job and I think it should be redone.
