Friendly folks abound

RUSHVILLE —

Dear Editor: Rushville people must be the friendliest people in Indiana. We had motor home problems and stopped at the trucking company just outside town. They told us to go to the shop behind Lloyd's Auto Sales to ask for assistance. The employees at the shop behind Lloyd's (sorry, I can't remember the name) were at lunch. I asked where I could find a place to walk to for lunch and Lloyds explained there was no place close, but he loaned me a car to go get something to eat. That act, in itself, was very nice. But, the employees at the shop behind Lloyds took a look at the motor home (no charge) and suggested another place in town for repairs. We drove to the other place where they spent quite some time helping us in the rain to decide the problem and made some phone calls for us, AT NO CHARGE. Everyone was so nice and we appreciated their commitment to helping and to their service they provided. I would highly recommend going to Rushville to do business. Thank you for your service. Terri and Steve Best Yorktown

  • Hunting is not a sport

    Dear Editor:
    Albert Schweitzer (Medical Missionary, 1875-1965) said, "When will we reach the point that hunting, the pleasure in killing animals for sport, will be regarded as a mental aberration?"

  • Parking on Jackson

    In regards to Jackson Street being turned into a two-way street, I think it is time that the city stops people from parking the way they did when the restaurant was there. It is a hazard and makes it impossible to drive when there is oncoming traffic.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What gives the East Hill Cemetery Board the right to speak for the entire city?
