The editor:
This past week a very dear friend of mine, Jenie Johnston, passed away Sunday, June 7 here in Frankfort, Ky. She is from there in Morehead, but to get to the point is that she was brought to Northcutt Funeral Home there in Morehead and was buried in the county and I want to thank your people in Morehead for the reverence they showed the funeral procession on the way to the graveyard. It really made me rejoice that there are people out there like that to care about the dead and their loved ones.

KMA takes issue with editorial on ‘pill mill’ lobbying
A recent editorial in this paper took issue with the Kentucky Medical Association (KMA) for its stand on recent legislation regarding prescription drug abuse.

The U.S Postal Service, another perspective
Having been an employee of the Postal Service for 40 years and serving in the Washington, D.C area for a decade there is another side of the USPS story. Every article in our Constitution states a right to all citizens. Article I Section 8 speaks to the governments’ role in society by providing a public service for the good of all the people by establishing the Post Office Department, which was never designed to make a profit.
- In praise of volunteers during tornado relief We would like to thank everyone on behalf of the Community Soup Kitchen for the tremendous outpouring of support during our relief efforts to feed those in need during the tornado at West Liberty, Menifee County, and other areas of eastern Kentucky.
- Consider needs of voters To vote or not to vote, that is the question. Our rights are slowly, maybe quickly, taken from us. Our leaders, elected officials and special groups are again telling us what to do. These people are elected to their high-paying, high-profile and controllable offices to represent us the people.
- People’s Clinic says thanks The Board of Directors, patients, volunteers and staff of the People’s Clinic express our gratitude to American Legion Post 126, its members and volunteers, for the Pancake Breakfast that raised over $3,000.

Please report suspected child abuse
Kentucky has already seen the destructive power of nature as storms and tornadoes have hit several communities across the Commonwealth this spring. There have been lives lost, whole communities devastated and families uprooted from their homes. There’s another storm raging across Kentucky that can prove just as fatal and just as damaging. Child abuse and neglect hits thousands of homes in Kentucky every year.

In praise of St. Claire
Recently I was a patient at St. Claire Regional Medical Center and received hospital care on the 3rd floor, 5th floor, and in ICU. I want to take this opportunity to praise the staff in every department. They were so attentive to my every need.
