As pines keep the
shape of the wind even when the wind has fled and is no longer there,
so words guard the shape of man, even when man has fled and is no longer
there.
Dave
Hamrick's legacy: Make the most of each day
By AMY RILEY
Our community has
come up short this past week. We aren't the same today as we were a
week ago, and we won't be the same next week as we are today. Such is
the way of this world.
O,
the joys of car tripping

LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR
Hamrick's
patriotism more authentic than a thousand flags
It was the longest,
most intense, most impassioned, most exciting and most controversial
political conversation I had ever carried on with one single individual.
Dave's untimely death brought it all to an abrupt halt.
Dave
was that rarest of species: a Georgia native
Clayton State [University]
lost a friend last [week]. Dave Hamrick husband of Development/Alumni
Relations Terri Taylor-Hamrick, father of Gabe and Nancy, managing editor
of The Fayette Citizen, former Clayton State interim sports information
director, spelunker and soccer enthusiast died suddenly at the age of
51.
Dave
wrote from the heart
I was shocked and
very saddened to learn to of the sudden demise of The Citizen's Dave
Hamrick.
Too
many unfinished talks
Dave, I just came
back from a trip to find you are gone.
Saddened
by untimely passing
I was shocked and
saddened by the untimely passing of a great American, Mr. Dave Hamrick.
Georgia
native remembers Dave as 'all heart'
As a native Georgian,
transplanted in North Carolina, I feel the loss hugely. I remember Dave
from when I was just 4 years old and older. He was all heart. My condolences
to the staff at The Citizen News.
Thoroughly
enjoyed Hamrick's weekly columns
My condolences on
the loss of Dave Hamrick. I never met him, but I've thoroughly enjoyed
his columns.
Schools
moving toward untested year-round idea
Do you know how
[the balanced calendar] will affect your family and the community? It's
also known as year-round education, year-round school, modified school
calendar, extended school year, alternative calendar, and education
for all seasons.
BOE,
vote for calendar 1
To the Fayette County
Board of Education:
Letters
from losers: PTC residents must be wary
Wednesday's Page
5 of The Citizen could easily have been headlined "Letters from
Losers."
Is
Mayor Brown a 'do as I say, not as I do' person?
Once again, Mayor
Brown has demonstrated his knowledge and "Johnny come lately"
foresight, just as he had when he decided to run for the position.
Keep
buses, give road money
GRTA has offered
$12 million to Fayette County if we pay $1.2 million toward buses we
do not want, will not work and do not need. The point is that the $12
million they are offering to us is our money. It came from our gas tax
dollars, we paid for it and want it back.
A
kind of elder abuse is occurring here in Fayette
Thank you for your
article regarding Fayette Senior Services (FSS) in last Wednesday's
newspaper.
Seniors
not being treated well at local Senior Services
I am writing in
response to the article in the March 6, 2002, edition of The Citizen
concerning the forum on service needs are of persons age 60 and older.
The notice for the forum was published in The Citizen and stated: "Interested
persons are invited to comment ... there is no limit on topics."
Budget
hearing had no budget; services missing
Thank you for freedom
of speech.
