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.

Thank you to Victoria at Winn-Dixie in Lake Park for being honest. I left my cash back in the automatic check out. She found it, and turned it in. Great employee. Keep her Winn-Dixie.

I am a student at Valdosta State University, I pay thousands of dollars in tuition, but I am not allowed to use the Student Recreation Center because I am not taking summer classes. I was told that I have to pay $45 to use the Rec Center during the summer. As if I don't pay enough already... Utterly ridiculous.

Truly embarrassing that our community euthanizes 12 animals daily. Our citizenry hasn’t progressed to understand responsibility. The end result in these horrible economic times is the ongoing suffering of animals. Other locales nearby have solved this problem; mandatory spay/neuter and breeding licenses are needed to stop this scourge. Let’s get serious, please!

I think what the County Commissioners are doing to Deep South Sanitation is outrageous and I think the citizens of Lowndes County should remember this during the next election. They are giving away freedom of choice. This man had this trash collection before Advanced.

The City of Valdosta needs another cable company! Competition is a great thing.

Perhaps I'm in the minority, but I'm quite pleased with Advanced Disposal. I'm paying less than I paid for service with Veolia, the service is reliable and they offer a large recycling bin. I don't understand what's "socialist" about offering county residents affordable, reliable service.

Closing the trash drop off was a big mistake. I live in Stone Creek so now I can’t put anything beside the street, now I have to haul it to the landfill and pay by weight. I had to pay $15, then I have to pay the trash pick up monthly. Something is wrong in this picture. I have a lot of yard waste, so now I have to take it to the landfill every time I clean yards.

I live in Brooks County. A while back, a limb fell at the edge of my yard. I called the road department asking to remove it. I was told they could not help because it was on private property. Later driving down Johnson Short Road, I saw the road department removing limbs from a yard. I have found out the limbs were on private property.

Do people in Valdosta not understand that when you lag behind at a green light there are people behind you that will not make the green light due to your inconsideration?

Mosquitoes in the city are growing fast. But sanitation and cable bills in so-called "Metro Valdosta" are growing even faster!
