Thank you for your loyalty and support for our local newspaper over the years. I don’t think it has ever been more appreciated than during the last couple of years when all of us have been challenged in so many ways. It’s times like these when I appreciate even more the special bonds that are…

I began writing this weekly column in December of 1999, crafting almost 1,100 essays over 22 years. One of the great pleasures in my life is to receive a note from a reader thanking me for giving them a smile. Some forward my column to friends around the country, but my favorite compliment is when…
