The news has been full of the Boston bombing and the rapid identification of the suspects. Contrast this with the 50 bombings of black homes in Birmingham in the late 1940s and 1950s. Police reports continued to state there was “not enough evidence” to enable them to search for the perpetrators.

The Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office saw the need for a better way to recognize law enforcement officers, their families and other community members. In January 2007, that need was filled by the creation of the Sheriff’s Office Honor Guard and Pipe and Drum Corps.

I wish to express my deepest heartfelt feelings concerning the burial of Tamerlan Tsarneav in American soil. Too many servicemen and women have given their lives to ensure that we can live in a country as great as America. Their bodies have been buried all over the world, not to mention other great Americans that helped to preserve the great freedoms that are guaranteed to each of us.

Jacksonville is watching a new level of teamwork develop between city leaders and the school system. Their efforts will likely lead to much needed improvements in school facilities. Much of the credit goes to Mayor Johnny Smith, for his experienced fiscal management, and to Superintendent Jon Campbell, for his collaborative leadership style.

On behalf of United Way of East Central Alabama, it is with heartfelt gratitude that I write this letter. I am overwhelmed, although not surprised, at how our community came together to support the Whirlwind of Color 5K celebrating the recovery from the devastating storms of April 27, 2011.
