We hope Holley Navarre Water System will get their act together and behave like a professional board that controls one of the largest budgets in the county. We wish successful business owners, or at least people with board experience, would seek to become part of the board for no other reason than to serve their community and make Holley Navarre Water System the best water provider in the area. They have top-notch employees who deserve top-notch leadership. Up to now, they have only known leadership that is an embarrassment to the community by people who make money off the system.
Another Christmas has come and gone. Thanks be unto God for Jesus, the reason for the season, making it possible for all who choose to live eternally in Heaven with the Lover of our souls. He loves each one of us more than anyone else ever could. He shed His own blood for us all. He alone deserves the pre-eminence in our lives!
Christmas is a time to relax. To open presents, enjoy quality time with family and friends and savor a getaway from the grind that is this business we call journalism.
