Letter to the Editor,

I would like to give a personal thanks to choir director John Tucker, the SHS Men’s Choir and the participating men from our community who joined together on Saturday for a most delightful evening of music. “For Men Only” was a men’s choir of some 55 individuals including students from our high school and men of all ages from our area. They performed six pieces ranging from comedy to the nostalgic to the truly inspiring. I couldn’t believe how wonderful those guys sounded after just a day of practice! This is only one of the many innovative ideas John Tucker has brought to our high school choir program.

Letter to the editor

I wish to respond to the lady who apparently was upset about the way things are at City Hall in a Letter to the Editor in Friday’s paper.  To be sure she had some good points, but there is another side of the coin.  I am of the same age as the person who wrote that letter, and from a standpoint of senior age, I feel I am on the same footing as the person who wrote that letter, except I have different views as explained herein.
