Editor, Gazette-Journal:

​It’s been almost a year since this horrible plague took over our world and yet, our hometown paper pushes on.

I can’t imagine the strength to keep covering the news, while putting yourselves at risk.

I want to thank each of you for your tireless work.

Because of you, we still know what’s available, where we can get something to eat and unfortunately, who we have lost.

We are a little more mobile than last March, but we have a long way to go before we are back to “normal.”

Please keep doing what you’re doing and know that you are appreciated.
