I loved my time at the Courier. Gene Thorne, Ken Murphy, Bill (The Iron Duke)Severin, Stu Haas. Dave Selzer, Jack Bender, George Saucer, Russ Smith, Burk Evans (and brother Kevin), Jim Fickess, Lawn Griffiths, Phyllis Singer, Betty Ferguson, Dave Brown (and brother Doud), Bob Case, Jim Humphrey, Dick Cole, Dan Jacobs, Carolyn Cole, Lamont Olsen, Dave Martin...yikes! So many people I fondly remember. Even Bob McCoy, who made certain I had a job when I was discharged, became a friend. So many years ago. So many changes.
Losing our local voice is so painful and I imagine anyone involved in the local news business feels that same pain. You're the last of a special breed, Pat, and I appreciate reading your work. Keep it coming.

This is so sad. Thank you for telling us, Pat.
