Death in the family

For anyone who might be trying to get in touch with me at the newspaper, I will be out of the office for a few days. My mother-in-law, Betty Barnett, passed away late this afternoon. She had COPD and had been in the hospital for about a month with an upper respiratory infection of some kind. She had lived with us for the past couple of years and was very close to the kids, and to me. We'll miss her dearly. Arrangements are pending at the funeral home in Jewett. I'll catch up on emails and phone messages early next week. If you need to get something in the paper that I would ordinarily handle, please contact Cheril or Angie. Thanks for your understanding.
