Too bad this has happened. Good or bad reasons chances are it's going to create bad thoughts in everyones mind. 

Names of good Income tax Preparers in DuBois ?

Are they doing it at the Senior center this year?

Thanks  for your help!

Anyone still doing leaf pick up?

Yes can you post it on Facebook so it is seen there also

What day is trick or treat in DuBois

What  Day is trick or treating in Du Bois??? I am being told different days

Was the council meeting canceled on 9/25

Take a look at DuBois Live concerning the reservoir.   Quite the mess.  I would really like to know if it is safe to drink 

So we should not be drinking the water that comes from DuBois?

Who is selling these stylish T-shirts?  These are sure to be a top seller.

AGAIN..OUCH!

And yay Goodwill ARE the City Champs!

If things were taken care of in the way they should have been,  this would not be such a mess.   One person taking care of everything..with no checks n balances by no others ...crazy!

Will the Firemen be having their contests for City Champs this week?

The original family was Ed, Joe, Grace, John, Louis, Francis and a couple more whose names I can't remember.

Ed was a lawyer (extremely honorable) and served as the City Solicitor.  I think, 4 children, 3 girls, one last boy.  Toni is his daughter.  At least one of her sisters work with her.

Joe was like the head of the family, earning money and making sure the kids all got educations in good jobs.

Grace was a nurse for Dr LJ Cherry a well know General Practitioner and Surgeon in our area.  There was another sister also.

Francis dealt with financial matters.  He even went to homes to do taxes.

John was Judge John Cherry, an extraordinary man and legal entity with a beautiful heart. 

I am proud to have known all of them.  They worked hard and were for the common man, not the high and mighty.  They were all very personable, kind, hard-working and would even come to a barn dance or housewarming if invited.

Most of the grandchildren have soaked into the woodwork of life other than Judge Paul Cherry.  

Toni was raised to be elegant, socially accepted anywhere, well-educated but does not seem to have followed some of the traits of her family.  She seems to be more driven, stressed and private.  When Herm first asked her to become the City Solicitor, she refused (according to the newspaper).  For some reason she finally agreed.  Now she is here, in the news, possibly in a pile of trouble, definitely a mess. 

Just my memories and opinion.

 

 

Yes. I remember when the Cherry name was an honorable name.  I would hope this for  most of them has not changed.  They were good people.

Wht are a lot if women using so many names these days?  Instead of Jasmine Broock. Its Jasmine Annette Reed Smith Broock. Or more??? Just wondering. 

Thanks Everyone!

Who best for window replacement?  Installation and pricing  Thankyou!

The current VFW's and AM Legion, perhaps even the AmVets is discouraging.  When I was a boy, my uncle - a pilot in WWII - would take me along with him to the Am Leg and the VFW.  I would get an orange pop and wander around the club.  My memory is that there was more to those clubs than a bar with less expensive booze.  There were locations set aside where members and guests could sit in comfortable chairs and read the news papers, or just sit quietly.  It was a place JUST FOR VETERANS.  In my adult life these clubs have permitted so-called "social members" to crowd in for the bar.  No more exclusiveness for veterans who earned the right to have their own club.  It has been years since I was in any of them.  By the way, I am retired military.  Marines in the early 60's with a year at Danang, later 3 years as a weapons instructor for a Navy Seabee Bn, some years in various Nat'l Guard units, I retired when I came home from Desert Storm/

Thankyou for your service

Question?  From the embankment there should have been a LOT of interlocking wall blocks, plus the bricks that people donated with their names on them.  Where did they go?  They were not trash.

Yes. Where did they go?!

On 5/7/2023 at 4:31 PM, BillyC said:

Didn't realize about the donated names. HOWEVER I have been wondering exactly how those walls were placed to make sure (short of a natural disaster} (not considering a heavy rain either} that the complete system doesn't end up at the bottom of 255

I dont understand how the Donated Stones disappearing has to do with the topic it is with..BUT YES..where are those stones?!!  People paid for those with good faith in honor of a loved one
