Family thankful for help

To the editor:
I am writing this to the editor because I think just about everyone should read this article.
To the people of Anderson County and surrounding counties, we want to say thank you.
Our son-in-law Johnny Simpson had a massive stroke on Oct. 20, 2012. He was in intensive care stroke unit for 10 weeks at the University of Louisville. For eight of the 10 weeks, we didn’t know if he was going to live.
On Dec. 21, we started seeing some improvement and he was moved to Cardinal Hill on Dec. 29. He was there until the end of February.

Recycling center to move forward

To the editor:
After many months of waiting, Anderson County’s new recycling program will be launching soon.
Last spring, the county received grant money from the state to help improve its recycling program. With this money, the county purchased a skid steer loader, a cardboard baler and seven collection trailers.
To support the program, the city purchased two additional trailers, making the total nine.

Tornado and glass pile would be a bad mix

To the editor:
Usually I’m writing monthly weather forecasts, or looking for that next severe weather outbreak, or perhaps helping someone pick a good weekend for an outdoor event.
Today I’d like to mention something a little more interesting and maybe a little strange, but possible. What would happen if a tornado hit the industrial park?

Only antidote is honest power

To the editor:
Money-purchased thievery (e.g. monopolistic drugs) and money-purchased incompetence (e.g. our $16.7 trillion debt) by greedy profiteers produce the stupid legislative outcomes in Washington (e.g. a bridge to nowhere).
For years, Speaker Boehner blamed President Obama and Senator Reid for not submitting their budgets. He should have blamed himself. He was responsible for their irresponsibility and therefore an equal party to their malfeasance.

Return to true meaning of Mother’s Day

To the editor:
With Mother’s Day around the corner I, like most mothers, are excited about this special day.
Whether that means a day of pampering without the kids, or a day full of exciting family activities and sweet cards, it’s a nice feeling to have a day just for us.

Senior citizens need our help

To the editor:
Several weeks ago I was approached by an agency to serve on a committee.
I have been approached by several others in the past, and have normally agreed to do so, but this one was different. I agreed immediately because this one is very special to me.

Let’s unite in prayer May 2

To the editor:
Christians of Anderson County,
Evil is present in our nation. Just watch the evening news … murders, robberies and terrorism.
Last year on May 3, Christians all across our nation gathered to pray for God to forgive us and to intercede on behalf of people in our nation.
Then in our nation:
On July 20, 2012, evil came to Aurora, Colo. Twelve were killed in a movie theater and 58 were injured.

Setting record straight on Kentucky Blood Center

To the editor:
I would like to respond to your April 17 column about blood donation in Anderson County.
While we applaud your support and encouragement of blood donation, we want to make sure you have all the facts and understand the important role Kentucky Blood Center (KBC) plays in the healthcare of our community.
Since 1998, my wife and I have coordinated the Anderson County Community Blood Drive at First Baptist Church with KBC. This blood drive has provided a convenient opportunity for Anderson County citizens to donate blood.
