Graduation not all joyful

Sunday, June 21, 2009 — I know times are hard but this is to the person who stole my granddaughter’s wallet during graduation from North Stanly.

This was supposed to be one of the best memories of my granddaughter’s life and now whenever we mention graduation to her she cries, not because she is happy, but because of all the gift cards and money people gave her for her accomplishments.

Also, she just had a baby two weeks prior, and knowing my granddaughter, most of those gifts were probably going to be used for her new baby. So, you not only stole from her, but the baby and all the people that the gifts were from, including me.

All we ask is that when you go to spend this money that it is used wisely and for the good -- and for you to ask yourself is it worth all the hurt feelings and guilt you will carry for the rest of your life.

If you do have a conscience, please send back the wallet and any unused cards or money. Her license is in the wallet with her address on it, or mine will be at the end of this letter.

    Regarding the recapture of the FERC license, it seems some folks want to focus solely on the money spent instead of the accomplishments that have been achieved or planned.

  • Tired of all the lies

    The people of Stanly County have been lied to and are unknowingly spreading those same lies regarding ALCOA and the Stanly County Commissioners. The only way to find the correct solution to the re-licensing is for the truth to be told.
