Orchids to…

President Barack Obama for listening to experts so we didn’t have to learn Dr. Fauci’s name during the Ebola outbreak.

teachers, because teaching is not a career, it’s a calling.

Judy McCormick for her reasonable and well thought-out letter about the pandemic.

St. Peter’s Lutheran Church Pastor Teike for the encouraging message and to the organist for playing the “Widor Taccata.”

Judy McCormick for the voice of reason we finally heard concerning the pandemic as expressed in her letter Sunday morning.

Darlitch Ford of North Vernon for the best deal I ever got on my new SUV, from Mr. Phelps of Columbus.

Judy McCormick for her letter in Sunday’s paper stating we should stop blaming the leadership of our country and instead work together in fighting this virus.

Wayne County for canceling its 4-H fair and being pro-life instead of pro-business.

Judy McCormick for a very common sense letter in Sunday’s paper, it is a shame all the elected officials don’t have the same common sense.

Happy Birthday to…
