VALDOSTA —
My child was recently very sick and we went to Smith Northview Hospital emergency room. I would like to thank Nurse Mandy Anderson, Georgia Cochran, Dr. Thomas and all of the staff that did such a wonderful job caring for my child. The concern, kindness and professionalism shown by the staff is much appreciated. Well done, Smith Northview. God bless you and your families.
AnneMarie in the technology department at WalMart was knowledgeable, efficient, and helpful as I was searching for a cell phone. She went so far as to call and set everything up for me. She was kind and courteous and went above and beyond what was necessary. She deserves a pat on the back!
I would like to rave about the servers we had at Texas Road House Saturday. They went above and beyond. The young man was very sure to say, yes ma’am. He was very well mannered. Will definitely be going back!
I love Dean’s article on the dump. We will miss the personnel at the dump, too. They are always friendly.
Much thanks to all who worked in the freezing cold to restore a broken water line.
I want to praise the City of Valdosta trash and yard clippings pickup workers. They do a great job!!
Rebecca at ADC, thank you so much for caring. You’re the best.
A huge rave to Kendrick at Verizon. He was very helpful and on top of my issue. ... thank you.
Thanks to the firefighters and everyone and the couple who stopped first to help me and my family when my house and barn was burning. Please stop back by so I can let you know how thankful we are.

How long is it going to take AT&T telephone and/or Mediacom cable to do something about the vines and bushes growing over the cable lines at Mt. Zion Church Road and Academy Acres. The lines are pulled down where a 6 foot person can touch them. We won’t have any cable service or phone service if something is not done about this pretty soon.

Alright Sister's Pizza, how am I supposed to cheat on my diet if you stay closed! The other pizza places are too far from downtown for my lunch hour and are a bit too greasy.

I am thankful I chose to stick with Deep South Sanitation. Our trash is always picked up right on time and he never leaves anything behind. After all my neighbors' trash is "picked up," often items are strewn by the road and the cans are either left in the road or fallen in or beside the road. Get rid of the big company and move to Deep South, if you want true customer service!

Over 150 applicants applied for the handful of teaching jobs in Lowndes County. Plus, almost every single paraprofessional is a certified teacher who has been waiting patiently, “doing their time.” And, Lake Park Elementary hires a teacher who has quit, not once, but twice before. The "good ole' boy" network at its finest.

Have we progressed to the point where we are arguing about gay marriage? I thought the South was still outraged about blacks being able to marry whites! Hmm...We will catch up to the rest of the world eventually.

I found the cartoon referencing Tim Tebow's Christianity on Thursday's editorial page very offensive. I can agree that many people are out for what God can do for them, not how they can serve God, But I do not see any evidence of that attitude or life style in Tim Tebow's life. Time will tell.

Good riddance to the doctor unable to take Medicaid patients?! Do you work for free? I bet you go to work and expect a paycheck. Why would the doctor be any different? Blame our fearless leaders, not the doctors. And you are WAY out of line questioning whether that person is Christian or not. Sounds like the person who thinks preachers should work for free.

Amazing: Even a judgmental person like yourself can’t even bother to get the facts straight before you criticize something. Jason Collins did an extremely brave thing by coming out in a world filled with people such as yourself. Words of Wisdom: Leave the judging to God.

Raves to Mrs. Kay and Mrs. Sylvia at Cook Primary! They have the best behaved class and are the best teachers in that school!

To all who use Coleman Road as a short cut between Old Highway 41 North and North Valdosta Road, please remember the speed limit is 35, not 65. Tailgating me isn’t going to make me go faster. Remember, it’s our neighborhoods, not your short cut!
