Remembering Clora (Coty) Harvey: God gained an angel

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

I was so fortunate to have known Coty through work and on a personal level. She was such a kind and gentle lady. And her Christian faith always showed. God gained a new angel today. Coty ,you will be greatly missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family today.

I hope I get to see you another day, my old friend.

s/Nina Wood

City Pool, Park, a good place to enjoy summer vacation

It's open seven days a week this summer

By Sonya Roy

Large numbers are finding the Columbia City Swimming Pool the place to be during the extremely high temperatures we've be having for the time of year.

The Pool and the Park are in really good condition at this time, and everyone seems to be trying to keep it clean and neat. This is very much appreciated by Mayor Bell, the City Council, and especially the city workers who handle the maintenance at the Park.

Remembering Clora (Coty) Harvey: A wonderful Christian

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

I worked with Coty for several years at Summit Manor Nursing Home. She was such a kind and sweet person. Always worked hard and treated all the patients with so much gentleness, kindness & respect.

She was a wonderful Christian person because it showed on her every day & all the time. The whole family has my sympathy but they can all be at peace just knowing that Coty is now.

Sincerely,

s/Sharon Moss Burton
