Letters

I, as well as other readers, have appreciated the series about Spencer County services and volunteerism that Deanna Godman has written, including stories on the mentoring program at Spencer Elementary, the Spencer County Family Resource Center and the Life Long Learning Center.
I have learned more in the past months about what services and volunteer opportunities are available to our residents than I had been previously aware of.
The extra research and interviews with those involved have made these articles some of the best in The Spencer Magnet.

After multiple incidents involving wanton endangerment, menacing and speeding by adults while driving my daughter to Spencer County Middle, I finally had to resort to making a criminal complaint against one individual (who I had to track down with the polite help of Spencer County Sheriff Buddy Stump and his staff). This is all because a Taylorsville officer, following the chief of police and Mayor Don Pay’s policy, refused to implement a simple written report.

On behalf of the social studies, math, English, and science departments at Spencer County High School, we would like to thank Becky House and Spencer County Physical Therapy for their generous donation of paper.  This has made our lives so much easier and less stressful in the final months of school.

Where did Spencer Countians’ respect for each other go?
I have not even read the weekly edition of The Spencer Magnet, but I can tell you that I really don’t have to. From going to the local grocery store, dollar store, bank and hardware store, I know what it holds.
From lips of discouraged citizens to ears of discouraged citizens, I have heard enough.
To Judy Puckett and the people that work for the clerk, I apologize that you are having to go through this.
