What about the other Ethan Crumbleys?

Dear Editor, We are unfortunately informed once again of another horrific, senseless school shooting. They don’t stop. When will the next one be? Who will be the next shooter and who will be the next unsuspecting victims?  Once again, American kids go to school to pursue education and American life but are murdered by a classmate while walking the hallway or sitting in a class. This has to stop. Will it ever?  According to news reports, on Nov. 30, 2021, Ethan Crumbley, a fifteen-year-old, took the lives of four schoolmates and injured seven others at Oxford High School, a Detroit,…

What is the real truth?

Dear Editor, We hear so much about COVID-19, but do we get the truth, especially from our government and the pharmaceutical industry? Of great importance to all of us is how effective and for how long the COVID antibodies last. Many tests done by other countries have shown it is more effective than the vaccine and lasts longer.

A thank you to the Veterans Day Parade entries and volunteers

Dear Editor, The Kingman Downtown Merchants Association would like to thank the community and all of the entries for this year’s Veterans Parade. As you know in 2020 it was cancelled due to the pandemic and we were determined to have a parade this year 2021 thinking that it would be small but the attention and efforts well deserved. However, it was very exciting to have the largest parade ever, with both attendance and registrations to show our support to our veterans. The message was heard loud and clear: Thank you to all members of our military, in all branches, past and…

Surviving a pulmonary embolism

Dear Editor, On Saturday, Oct. 2 I had to go to the hospital emergency room. The prior Tuesday I had an unusual leg spasm from my left thigh to my groin area. I’ve had pulled muscles from sports off and on and thought it was from exercise or just sitting weird in my recliner.  By later Wednesday, I noticed an occasional cough that felt strange. On Thursday, I called my family doctor’s office and reported I was coughing occasionally and didn’t feel right. I was told by the receptionist, “We aren’t seeing sick people and the doctor thinks you should have a…
