Thanks for mowing cemetery

We want to say our thanks to all that have assisted in the mowing of Cullman Memory Gardens this year. This shows great respect and pride in our community.

We'd also like to express many thanks and great gratitude to all involved in the mowing and cleaning of grounds at Cullman Memory Gardens the week of July 27. This is the cleanest the cemetery has been in a long time. We were impressed when I drove through the cemetery this past weekend. We commend the Cullman High School football team and all involved with this job well done.

Our brother mowed our family plots this year, but we realize that everyone cannot do this due to various reasons. Just when you think that one man's greed and selfish acts have affected so many and caused great concern for numerous people, we have these outstanding young people come forward with this donation of their time. This is a wonderful expression and gift to the community in which they live. This is an impressive example of our future community leaders.

We, the family of Staff Sgt. Billy G. McCravy, would like to thank the Cullman football team, coaches and parents and all others who helped with the cleanup at Cullman Memory Gardens. Thanks also to Sen. Zeb Little for what he's doing to help.

I read with interest the article in the paper on the cemetery cleanup at Cullman Memory Gardens. It was good to see people care for the cemetery. What a tribute to the coaches and players of the Cullman High School football team! They are first class in everything they do.

My husband and I bought two plots in 1983, so we are very much aware of the shape it has gotten in. We drove down Saturday afternoon and were witnesses to such a marvelous job performed there by the youth who volunteered. The cemetery was beautiful, attention was paid to every detail. This makes us all proud of our young people.

  • Lady Broncos' coach/Lady Broncos

    We, as the Holly Pond Varsity Lady Broncos, would like to clarify a few comments published in a previous spread about our coach. It would be accurate to refer to him as a second father to all of us players.

  • Small random acts of kindness/Johnson

    Small random acts of kindness often have the largest impact. In this season we often spend large amounts of time and money trying to win favor with that perfect gift. Ceaseless hours are spent shopping online or in the mall often without success. This is a story of the perfect gift that has affected us all.

    I don't often say nice things about government or government employees. But, perhaps this doesn't count either.

  • Teacher gifts are not the problem/Weaver

    Teacher gifts are not the problem.
    Legislators need to get off the backs of elementary schools and attend to the bigger issues we are facing-greed and corruption in government.

  • Thank your child’s teacher!/Wright

    Thank your child’s teacher! On Dec. 7, the State of Alabama Ethics Commission issued a 26-page opinion on how the new Ethics law affects Alabama’s teachers. The area of the law that is receiving the most attention concerns appreciation gifts given to our children’s teachers.It is incredibly restrictive – and has simply gone too far!

    There is a glaring misrepresentation of the facts in the Saturday, Dec. 10, 2011, article, “Governor, lawmakers to work on immigration changes”.
