Jim Herzet is right. The commissioners don't value their employees. They can't even give them a cost of living raise, yet they vote themselves a raise and are the highest paid commissioners in the surrounding counties.

It's one thing to steal from the living but to go to a cemetery and steal is horrible! Sometime this weekend some lowlife went to Hillcrest Cemetery at Florence and took two live plants off a grave. The person who did this was nice enough to leave a totally empty pot — they must have needed the dirt too. Hope you enjoy the plants.

The Marion Sports Complex is something to be proud of . . . except when there is a big pile of rock right down the middle of the parking lot during the busiest month of the year. Grandmas and grandpas and parents with young children have to hike in from the football field parking lot to watch kids play baseball or softball. Other people are blocked in by inconsiderate drivers . . . or people who weren't able to walk that far to watch the games. What's next?
