Letter: Sad our neighborhood lost two of its finest

Vicky Pike writes:
The New Columbia Greater Bliss community lost two of our finest yesterday in Margie Collins and Kenneth Scott. Both were a big part of our little area. Kenneth being fondly remembered as the mayor of Bliss. Margie truly one of the most gracious ladies I ever met. Both did their part and then some for their community.

Heaven has certainly gained two of the best. My sympathies go out to both families. They will be greatly missed by Greater Bliss as our friend Ed Waggener so fondly referred to it in his many posts of the area.

Letter: Food delivery in Columbia and Russell Springs

Daniel Hedges writes:
I want to follow up and once again promote Doordash in the Russell Springs and Columbia areas. Russell Springs has Dairy Queen and one of their Mexican restaurants, which Columbia does not. I want to encourage businesses to get this service. The community needs to ask for the service with local managers. With cold weather coming and lingering virus concerns, this service can only be an asset. People can have food safely and conveniently delivered to home with no contact options. Businesses will have money driven to their store. The economy will be stimulated further. Let's get this accomplished. Thank you.
