Your vote is important in senior center issue
Dear Editor,
On Aug. 5, 2008, Vernon County voters will have an opportunity to support a generation of our senior citizens who have become known as the "Greatest Generation." Our seniors have earned that title by surviving a worldwide depression, winning a world war, building more roads, highways, bridges, dams, hospitals, schools, and conquering more diseases than any generation before or after them. Our seniors have blazed a trail of progress allowing all Americans and many foreign nations to benefit from their achievements.
Now our seniors need support with medical transportation, meals, in-home services, minor home repairs, and health and wellness care. Seniors deserve our support.
I urge all Vernon County voters to give serious consideration to supporting our seniors and approve the Senior Services Fund on Aug. 5.
Respectfully,
Barney Fisher,
Richards
