Ed, I want to commend Tammy Coomer for making the decision to participate in this year's St. Baldrick's Shaving for a Cure to raise funds for the fight against children's cancer. As a participant last year, I will never forget the encouragement and support that I received from the residents of Columbia and Adair County.

This event is for such a worthwhile cause and I hope everyone will support her as they did me in my efforts. If anyone would like to make a donation online on Tammy'ss behalf, here is the website address: StBaldricks.org, just go to to the site, type in her name under Find A Participant, and you can then make your donation. I just did!! Tammy, hope you not only reach your goal but can pass it up!! Good Luck!! --Cathy Luttrell
