Dear Editor,
Let me tell you about a lady friend that I know. I met Mrs. Jean Cooper some 40-50 years ago and have been fascinated by the lady ever since. People in this county and many other counties around here have met Ms. Jean. At present, she is homebound after breaking her hip for the second time. Mrs. Jean knows no strangers. We travel all over Georgia due to our ties with Georgia Farm Bureau, and everywhere she will stop and ask people where their from, and sure enough she will know someone from that same area.

Appreciates Dr. Hall and staff
Dear Editor,
On Wednesday night, April 20 a car hit my Weimaraner, “Maggie.” The accident caused extensive damage to her leg, leaving the bone exposed, meat and hide gone, and her artery severed and she was bleeding profusely. My regular vet was several counties away and was going to meet me, but I knew she would not make it that long. I called Doctor Hall, whom I have never used, and he told me to meet him at his office. He met me at the car. That moment would be another story within itself, but that was the moment I bonded with Dr. Hall. [Full Story »]

It’s inventory time!
Dear Editor,
Every morning we wake up to something new or strange that has happened all around us. From day to day so many things take place. We begin to wonder why, when and how could this happen to me? We get so busy doing our own thing, our way. So many things will happen to us, when we only think of me, my and I, and forget who holds the key to our every day life. [Full Story »]

Writer expresses unease with Appling County Road Dept.
Dear Editor,
This letter concerns the operations and management of the Appling County Road Department. During June and July I spoke with Manager Tommy Davis and County Manager Lee Lewis about the right of way fronting my property on County Farm Road. I conferred with them twice about the condition of the shoulder of the road. The right of way in front of my property has not been mowed in months. Because of the steep shoulder parts of it cannot be mowed period. [Full Story »]

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart”
Dear Editor,
I would like to take this opportunity to say “thank you” to my dear friends and relatives in Baxley. As many of you know, I’ve been on the Kidney Transplant list at Emory Hospital for a while now.
I was blessed to receive not one but two new kidneys on April 13, 2011. The transplant was a tremendous success, and I’m doing wonderful. God has truly blessed me through this experience.
I’d like to say “thank you” to everyone. You may have attended a fund raising event, made a donation to the fund raisers or my transplant fund, brought food, stopped by for a visit, called, simply asked about me, thought of me or said a prayer. Each and everything is so appreciated. [Full Story »]

Professional healthcare close to home
Dear Jamie,
I would like to submit just a short note to say how fortunate that we are to have our hospital system in Baxley. A lot of people don’t realize how many communities have either lost their hospitals or have had to cut back to “skeleton crews” across Georgia. Nearly every hospital that I am aware of is having severe financial problems for numerous reasons. That is another story for another time. [Full Story »]

Cherish the details
Dear Editor,
When we recount our day is it not filled with minute and mostly unimportant details? Maybe a conversation with a crush, which led to absolutely nowhere, or a television show that likewise did little other than further distract you from the prison called life. [Full Story »]
