Sad news of the passing of William (Bill) Grover The story of the tragedy of the death of Mr. William (Bill) Grover of the Anderson Road neighborhood of Greenbriar RD is beginning to reach us. From the information we have, Mr. Grover died as the result of a heroic effort to rescue his wife, who was stranded in high water. Friends of the Bill Grover say he exemplified the spirit of Adair County in a wonderful way. Among his many contributions were several memorable appearances in Folklore of the Old West Bank Robbery pageant as a member of the Green River Cowboys, whose membership, with the death of Mr. Grover, has been dealt a second tragedy in just over four years. The scant information we have now is that Stotts-Phelps-McQueary Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements, but details of those arrangements are still being worked out. Related earlier story: Larry Smith is reporting search for missing South Adair man Further information, including memorial arrangements and tributes to Mr. Grover will be posted as receved. Comments and further submissions are welcome. Thanks to Barry Jones, Larry Smith, and Stotts-Phelps-McQueary Funeral Home for contributions to this brief item. 2009-12-09 18:06:03 | Comments | Printable version

Remembering Doris Beard: She made community better About: Remembering Doris Cave Beard To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I have such beautiful memories of Doris Cave Beard. She was an active member of the Extension Homemakers club and Hospital Auxiliary for many years.

Common Sense? Why put off gas merger? To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I don't know all the particulars concerning the transfer of Columbia's water and sewer services to the Adair County Water District but why are we going to go through this process more than once? If the ACWD is that much better at developing, managing, and maintaining public utilities than the City of Columbia why wait for the natural gas infrastructure to deteriorate to the same high state of disrepair as the water and sewer? Let's get this all done at the same time. I would think it would cost less to do it all at once. s/Billy Joe Fudge 2009-12-09 14:10:18 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
