Tip of the Hat

Saturday, June 9, 2012 - 12:01 am

Thank you to the retired gentleman who was out on a hot sunny day placing American flags on the graves of our departed veterans at St. Peter's Lutheran Cemetery, Fort Wayne. God's blessings.

A hearty thank you to the person(s) who paid for these two seniors' dinners at Bob Evans on Maysville Road on Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. What a nice surprise! And we'll pass on your kindness to another couple. Thanks again!

Tip of the hat to Laura Snyder's column in the May 24 News-Sentinel. I agree with her regarding air conditioning in schools. I'm in my 90s, and we didn't even have a fan in the classroom. We had wonderful nuns who tolerated the heart, and they wore their habits. If we complained, we were told “offer it up” and the subject was closed. Laura, there is comfort in knowing there are many others who share our opinion.
