    To the editor:

    On Oct. 1, George “Zeke” Inman Jr., 92, will fly to Washington, D.C., along with other veterans from the Bluegrass Area for a whirlwind tour of monuments commemorating the armed services.

    Dad read with great delight about Earnest “Pete” Cox and his recent trip on the Honor Flight that took place on Aug. 27. He had The Anderson News open for me to read the article when I arrived on the evening that he had received the paper.

    To the editor:

    Thanks will never be enough for the community support I received for my retirement. All the texts, emails, cards and calls meant so much.

    For the first time in several years I don’t have to sleep with the phone beside my ear all night. Lawrenceburg has always been our home and will continue as I look forward to being more involved as a down-town business.

    To the editor:

    The Anderson County Family Resource and Youth Service Centers would like to thank all the community partners, school staff and

    volunteers for their continued support of the Anderson County Family Fun Fest.

    This year proved to be another success. We handed out close to 1,000 backpacks and supplies to local students in grades preschool through 12th grade.

    We also had more than 60 vendors who participated by distributing information about local businesses, agencies, and activities.

    To the editor:

    I would like to publicly thank and commend Det. Jeremy Cornish of the Lawrenceburg Police Department.

    Very recently I was given cause to rely upon this law enforcement agency to recover property stolen from me. Had it not been for their diligence, I would have never seen my items again nor would justice have prevailed.

    I cannot begin to express the gratitude I have toward the Lawrenceburg Police Department and Det. Cornish.

    We love Lawrenceburg!

    We just hosted the 13th Annual Model T Speedster Tour there this past week and we have been blown away. Everybody that we worked with went out of their way to help us.

    Troy Young did a great job taking pictures of our speedsters at the Healing Field. What a beautiful setting!

    Thank you to the Anderson Board of Education for its help with parking.

    To the editor:

    On May 13 the Department of Justice and Department of Education released a joint statement that they have reinterpreted (and will enforce) Title IX, a 1972 statute written to prohibit sex discrimination, as also prohibiting discrimination on the basis of gender identity, including discrimination based on a student’s transgender status.

    For example, if a boy claims to identify as a girl, then he must be treated as a girl by an educational institution. The joint statement gives opposite-sex access to restrooms, locker rooms, showers, etc.

    To the editor:

    I recently completed a major community service project for my Eagle Scout rank. This project required the donation of many materials. I would like to express my gratitude and amazement at the local businesses in this community. They were very willing to help with what they could and asked very little of me in exchange. They fulfilled the needs of the project with little to no hesitation. I simply asked and they gave.

    One of the businesses even delivered the materials I needed with only a couple days’ notice.

    To the editor:

    Before everyone gets their knickers in a twist about the president’s executive order to allow transgender students to use the restroom of their choice, we should look at the human side of the issue.

    I am not gay and I’m comfortable with my biological sex, but I have several gay friends and one or two who have powerful urges to express the side of themselves that is not represented by their genitals.

    To the editor:

    I’m writing this letter concerning items taken from my husband’s grave at the Lawrenceburg Cecmetery.

    In five years, I’ve had four items taken — a saddlestone, two Styrofoam ball arrangements and a toy John Deere tractor.

    This year, my sister Valerie Taylor; Fay Banks who works in crafts; and I made Styrofoam arrangements, of purple and lavender flowers, beads, foliage and net silver ribbon. Fay made the remark that someone would take it because it was really pretty.
