Praise for Dr. Phil Aaron essay: TED About: TED by Dr. Phil Aaron. To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I just read Dr. Phil Aaron's comments about Senator Ted Kennedy and thought it was an informative piece about the senator. As a Kentuckian I am grateful for the 300+ bills he wrote to help children, the elderly, and other citizens who often do not have a voice. In addition the 2700 bills that he either co-sponsored or helped to be passed helped so many people in our state. I worry so much about Congress and the special interest groups that controll them today. In Senator Kennedys case, he didn't need money from special interest to keep getting electing. It is refreshing to see someone who has no financial cares or needs to be so passionate about giving back and helping others. s/Nancy Moran Fouser 2009-09-03 18:52:29 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Julia Miller Horton loved flowers from earliest childhood In later years, Dr. Horton planted roses outside her bedroom window so she could always see the roses. When they were in bloom, he would cut roses from the garden and set them beside her bed. Roses played a big part in a beautiful Columbia love story, still remembered in the legacy of the Julia Burns Horton Rose Garden at the Trabue House. Julia Ann Pickett Great niece and namesake of Julia Miller Horton Julia Miller Horton was born May 28,1894, to the parents of Susan Russell Patteson and Dr. Samuel Preston Miller.
