Thank you for printing the article “A mother says ‘thank you.’” I was the first person on the scene of the accident, along with another woman who tried to help me get Jeannie out from under the car.

It was the driver for AMVETS looking for our donations. My husband had told him the marked bags were there at the base of the drive. The driver said there was nothing there! Someone had stolen our donation bags from our driveway. I...
I want to thank Scrappy’s for their honesty and integrity. Last week I took my 4-Runner in because I was told by an oil-change shop that I needed new brakes.

The pro...
