To the editor:
Timmy Brothers was a good bus driver and an easy person to get along with on an adult and student level over his 20 years.
He drove my children from 1992 to 1996 until we moved. I feel as though Timmy was targeted unfairly for a lesser rule broken and picked out among many bus drivers who merely got a tap on the hand for leaving children on the bus at the bus garage, children driven around for up to an hour after not being let off where they were suppose to be while parents or grandparents were frantic as to their whereabouts.

To the editor:
A big thank you goes to News Editor Meaghan Downs of The Anderson News for her coverage of an unfortunate situation for the elderly couple in our county who were in need of assistance in getting their electricity turned on.
The couple contacted our county’s charity group, Helping Hands--Heart of Community (HHHC), for possible assistance due to word of mouth from one of their neighbors.
We are thankful that word of our group’s charitable work is getting around the county so we can help as many people in need as possible.

To the editor:
Sovereign Grace Church would like to thank the kind people of Anderson County for donating to our Missions Yard Sale this summer.
With your help we have raised over $20,000 that will go to the spread of the gospel around the world. This money will help to send out mission teams, translate the Bible for people groups who do not have the Bible in their language, and support missionaries on the field.

To the editor:
If you had to bury your trash and garbage in your own back yard, would you recycle?
I often ask this question, especially to those I know do not recycle. The answer I usually get is, “Of course.”  
I continue my questioning with, “Well, then, why do you not recycle now?” The answers are varied: I do  
not want to sort all that stuff. I do not a have a blue recycle bin. It’s too much trouble. The list gets longer. None of these reasons can be substantiated.
