Window on the World Column | The Spirits of Thanksgiving Past

Lucy Jensen
Ah, those memories, like the corner of my mind. Most days we chug along, casting a glance back once in a while when Facebook reminds us of something, or if it’s Mama’s birthday and she’s no longer of the planet — or it’s sister...

Worthy to Print Column: Being a Father

I have been many things in my life, but without a doubt being a father was the hardest and yet the most rewarding. My daughter suffered my teaching as I had grown up in a home of men. I guess all children need discipline,...

Funny Papers Again Column | Notes From the 365 Little Squares on My Calendar

Steve Wilson
An end of the year, month-by-month chronicling of stand-out events of the past year is an age-old newspaper tradition, and as I have never attempted such a column, I thought this year I’d give it a go. In beginning this, don’t know what events...

Worthy to Print Column | The Care and Training of a Household Pet

George Worthy

Window on the World Column | The Mysterious Tale of Two Chains

Lucy Jensen
I can only attribute it to wedding brain or, perhaps, the sad story of the lost memory. The last few weeks running up to my daughter’s wedding were borderline insane — the details, followed by more details, checks and rechecks, lists made and lost....

Worthy to Print Column | Saying Goodbye to an Old Friend

George Worthy
This has been a rough week. It might look different to most of you, but for me it’s just another reminder of the test of time. Many years ago I bought a car from Joanne Rodriguez. Joanne’s husband Alva had passed away and he,...

Window on the World Column | Rosie’s Birthday

Lucy Jensen
I’m not great with anniversaries, birthdays and the like. When I say I’m not great, what that means is that I have an incredible memory for what can be difficult days in the annual calendar. Days like my sister’s birthday. ā€œForever 48,ā€ I wrote...
