Letter to the Editor: Economic, Artistic and Social Changes Merit Support for Mayor Gayle
|
I think that from the trenches of the daily grind, we tend to miss the forest for the trees; we see our local government in terms of the extraordinary -the once-in-a-while headline or sensational event- rather than in terms of its everyday functions.

Franco Juricic Turned his Personal Tragedy into an Exhilarating Victory for Humanity
|
Franco Paul Juricic of Highland Park may have lost his battle with pancreatic cancer on March 6, 2019, but won a great eternal victory for the resilience, spirituality, and dignity of human kind. He not only was a beloved husband and father, but also a beloved citizen in his community and advocate for helping others with pancreatic cancer by raising awareness about the need for dedicating resources to finding a cure. In his honor, the Sunday, May 5, 2019, Highland Park 5k race, is being dedicated to his memory by mobilizing runners and the entire town to raise money for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PCAN). The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is a nationwide network of people dedicated to working together to advance research, support patients and create hope for those affected by pancreatic cancer. The entrance fee for the 5k race as in the past goes to support a variety of community organizations, but the generous runners and community members have stepped up with extra funds for the PCAN.
