  • Letter: To Mr. Stephens and Eminence City Council

    I just wanted to thank yourself and the city council for their support of the planned CVS Pharmacy.  Too many times government gives into the wishes of a few at the cost of the many.  Many residents including myself cannot wait for the added convenience a CVS pharmacy will bring.  Currently I have to drive all the way to La Grange to fill a prescription because I am not happy with the service that the one pharmacy in Henry County provides.

  • Letter - Thank you for coverage

    Thank you for your coverage of the beginning of the re-beautification program at the Eminence Cemetery. This was made possible by many people who responded to letters and calls.

    The Eminence Cemetery Board was elected in 2011 with the express goal to address the needs of the cemetery.

    By Candy Clarke

    Spring is here; the flowers are blooming, the wonderful world of nature is constantly changing, and the fish may be biting. The sun is shining, a gentle breeze is blowing and the water is warm. That’s reason enough for me to hook up my little boat, loaded with fishing poles and  a picnic lunch, and head for the nearest body of water. It has the makings of a perfect day. What more could you want?

  • The city’s gain will also be its loss

    In 2002, a coffee shop opened up in Owensboro, Ky. The shop, Beyond the Brim, was a first for the city, and at the time, the only coffee shop.

    In addition to coffee and tea, the shop also served food. The service was great, the food fantastic and the coffee was pretty darn good. The owners, a local couple, regularly gave back to their community, supporting youth sports, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, church groups and much more.

  • The doubter’s gift

    Most of us start out believing whatever we believe about whatever because someone we trust told us it was the truth.  For a while, it is enough.

    “The stove is hot.  Don’t touch!” Momma warned.  For a few people, the warning is enough.  For others, there will always be the necessity of testing the warning.
