I for one, am exceedingly grateful for all that our volunteers do for the village. Their expression of support for one another should be applauded, not criticized. Candidly, I don't understand a world where people can openly ask for you to come to their aid in time of need, but chastise you for expressing your support for one another. I long for the America that looked to celebrate our commonality, not the current one that looks to tear us apart.

Questions however, should be referred to the village board/mayor.Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217542873346619236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787750143375798683.post-11172041070165268962021-06-16T13:19:12.519-04:002021-06-16T13:19:12.519-04:00Yay John!
