  • Our thanks to you

     

    The five board members of the Eminence Independent Schools and the five board members of the Henry County Board of Education oversee budgets, make tough decisions, maintain the upkeep of our schools, and ensure academic excellence for all students. They also make it a priority that each individual child, in the Henry County and Eminence Independent district, gets what he or she needs to successfully learn in school and beyond. All that is done in the face of shrinking state and federal dollars for education.

    Standing out against fairness ordinance

    I want to thank Shawn Golden for vocally opposing the Fairness Ordinance as well as taking a stand for Christianity. I want to encourage all Christians to do what is right and fight for our families. Research for yourself the Fairness Ordinance of Kentucky and take a look at what it has done to other Christian businesses in our state. Anyone who is not familiar with this topic should visit http://www.kentucky.com/2012/11/26/2421990/city-rules-hands-on-originals...

    See what happened to this company.

  • Our Greatest Generation

    Our greatest generation

    Four weeks ago today I attended the memorial service for my uncle, Kenneth Bratton, a member of the greatest generation.

    Sixty nine years ago today he was fighting in the deadliest battle our nation had ever seen, the Battle of the Bulge. This battle resulted in over 85,000 US casualties, with over 19,000 dead.

  • A moral responsibility

    A moral responsibility

    The historic wrought iron fence, surrounding the Point Pleasant Cemetery that is located in a curve on KY 573, was silently removed last week. Its purpose had been to prevent speeding cars and weather related accidents from demolishing the tombstones. There seems to be no one in the community who witnessed it being taken down.

  • Scrap your idea

    I’m writing in regards to the Point Pleasant Cemetery in Bethlehem.

    This is an old graveyard, but people are still buried there quite often.

    There used to be an old iron fence around a big portion of it. Notice I wrote, “Used to be.”

    It sits in a very sharp curve off of KY 573. There’s been several wrecks there over the years and thanks to the fence it prevented a lot of damage to the cemetery and possibly a fatality.
