An old friend, June Hensley of Kingston, just died at 86. I knew her through the Southwest Point Chapter of the D.A.R., for whom she volunteered tirelessly. She had a kind heart and always gave freely of her time; she truly cared about veterans, students, and our whole community. She will be greatly missed.

Sunday night, volunteers from the West Roane County Volunteer Fire Department saved my aged mother. She had gone outside to the porch to feed the cat, then fell down and hit her head and couldn't get up. The volunteers arrived within a few minutes, got her to her feet, and offered medical assistance. We could not have imagined a faster response. I want to give a big thank you to the amazing, wonderful, and selfless men and women who volunteer fire and emergency services here in West Roane! -- OneTahiti ( categories: )

See, and consider supporting, the cause below. No, it's not political - in fact, it's apolitical. But the fact is that it could benefit all of us: RB

Tennessee has only two bookmobiles. Kentucky has 98, and even Georgia and Alabama have 23 and 17 respectively. See this PDF: Link.... I loved the access to books that a bookmobile gave me when I was young. We could really use a bookmobile or two here in rural Roane County. -- OneTahiti ( categories: )

The West Roane County Volunteer Fire Department has issued a call for volunteers. Our neighbors in this all-volunteer IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit not only fight our fires but also provide our emergency medical services. Every year they respond to hundreds of calls.

Today I received an envelope via U.S. mail with a real-looking cashier's check inside for $1290.45, drawn on the First Legacy Community Credit Union in Charlotte, North Carolina. I checked with that credit union and they said the check is a forgery, one of several recently reported.

Well, Jack lost the race. But I hope he won't stay away from future races. On a personal level I agree with Jack on some things and I disagree with him on some things. But he ran a totally clean race. He ran an informative race - we all knew pretty clearly what Jack stands for and what we could expect out of him. He's a stable person who is a real servant - and this can be seen in the way he's lived his life, not just in what he says. I beleve he DOES care about people the way he says he does, and that's because actions speak louder than words; he's been directly involved in things that SHOW he cares. ( categories: )
