Cheers & Jeers

JEERS: To the parents that brought their young children to see the movie “The Best Man Holiday.” This movies is R-rated and no place for babies or young children. Shame on you!—J.N., Texarkana, Texas

CHEERS: To the Gazette and the other organizers for the very nice appreciation program and luncheon for the veterans. It was exciting to see our friend, Lewis Whitworth, meet up with a fellow POW and learn that they were in the same camp at the same time. Thanks for all your work to honor our veterans.—G.S., Atlanta, Texas
