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

  • Is Romney still a conservative? TV media doesn't think so

    Dear Editor:
    It's interesting to note that television reporters and talking heads now use the term "conservative" to refer only to those on the extreme far right.

  • RE: Forced "fairness" not government's role

    Dear Editor,
    I again find myself puzzled by Mr. Barada's columns.
    It seems that Mr. Barada believes that that there is an Obama-occupy army waiting around every street corner to kidnap our children and force them into a life of Socialist servitude.

  • What about The Star Spangled Banner?

    Dear Editor,
    When it was recently announced that an Indiana state Senator had introduced a bill calling for rules regulating the performance of our national anthem, some of you may have groaned, "Well, Norm Voiles will certainly weigh in on that one!"

  • Union myths

    Dear Editor:
    If Hoosiers wish to break free from the chains of stagnation and lead the
    country on the road to recovery, they should embrace the right-to-work law.
