Welcome Home, Mary Keltner

A number of community leaders, most recently Delwin Blair, Joyce Williams, and Christine Ussery, have sent welcome home messages to a beloved former Adair County Health Department Nurse Mary Keltner, who is home again in Gradyville, KY, where she belongs, after undergoing a long period of medical treatment in Maryland.


The card was started by Angie Murrell and her other former colleagues at the Adair County Health Deparment and has been subsequently signed by many others, who've missed this Columbian who moved here when her late husband, James Howard Keltner, brought her back to his hometown for retirement and it became her home, too. She's stayed, and is now more "Adair County" than natives - a metamorphosis that happens so often, we know.

"This is home," she says. "i've lived here longer than any other place in my life. The people of here have made me part of their family."
