Today's Opinions

  • City will lose legacy

    I am disappointed by the news that the remaining buildings at the corner of East Broadway and Penn Avenue in Eminence are to be razed. I had the honor of serving as the Main Street Manager for the city for several years and learned of the many beautiful old buildings that have been lost over the past decades. I also had the privilege, during my tenure, of being taken inside the building known as the “old dance hall” and the old brick residence to the rear of it. The beauty of that experience made time stand still for me.

  • The Silver Run fun sans grizzly bears

  • Citizen involvement and civic pride

    Every town needs it to prosper and Eminence has it!
    As an example, perhaps you’ve noticed lately the change in the Eminence Cemetery. Those stark dead tree trunk that stood defiantly throughout the cemetery since the tornadoes of the early 1970s are gone. Removing them was the first phase of a plant to bring our venerable cemetery back to its heritage of beauty and dignity.

  • With love and determination

  • Fiscal responsibility should be commended

    I truly hope my fellow Henry County residents realize how fortunate we are to have fiscally responsible county leaders. (“Magistrates to cut $150k from budget”)

  • Forget Fox, remember reason

    I had not intended my July 25 letter to be solely a defense of the Affordable Care Act, but to point out the widespread deception of Mr. (Geoff) Davis and his party, and the unquestioning acceptance of these lies by many people on many issues.  

  • David needs your help! And so does Mona

    Do you remember the story of David in the Bible?  He held a slingshot to fight off Goliath.
    Well, I feel like David as I have been issued a challenge with Bullitt and Shelby Counties.  We are having a competition: who can walk the most steps on Sept. 29, in simultaneous walks in our counties. I feel like David as both counties are much bigger than we.  However, even if we are small we are mighty and we can win.

  • Remembering Michael will help us serve others in need

    Remember Michael as the first grader who stood out from all the others at Campbellsburg Elementary School. I was a nervous, inexperienced new teacher of elementary P.E. and all those little faces just blended in as they gathered expectantly around me for their first day of P. E. Michael stood out. He was taller, he looked you in the eye and talked like a little adult. He seemed very self-assured even then.
