Remembering Will Dohoney By Martha Henry Berry There have been several posts about the characters who have lived in Columbia, but no one has mentioned Will Dohoney. He roamed the square in the 1940s and probably early- to mid-1950s. Will was a big man, had a speech impedediment and was slow in his thinkng. Even though he was a member of the Christian Church, he knew all the Methodist preachers for miles around. He collected small change from the people on the Square, usually asking for a nickel. Someone once asked why he didn't ask for a dime, as they were worth more. His answer was that if he did, people would stop giving him money. With the money that he collected, he bought neckties for many of the Methodist preachers on their birthdays. I don't know how he knew the preachers and certainly did not know how he knew their birthdays. Dad had several of them. I think of Will every time I drive out Fairground St. 2020-03-07 09:44:11 | Comments | Printable version

Letter: Thanks Jerry Antle for picking up the trash Steve Coomer writes: "I would like to extend thanks to Jerry Antle and his crew for picking up litter on Lampton Lane. They did a great job!" - SC Steve, thank you for writing and affirming the County's good works. Also Mayor Hoots reported over 40 bags of trash were picked up this week inside the city limits. Now is the time to get trash cleared from the roadsides - it's so visible in spring rains and it's better to get it picked up now before weeds and grasses grow up around it, mowing begins and trash gets scattered in more places, in smaller pieces. - LW 2020-03-07 07:20:28 | Comments | Printable version Birthdays and Anniversaries for March 7 Happy anniversary, Ricky and Brenda Neat | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Alicia Miller | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Ann Burton Murphy (1951) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Bernice Mitchum | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Bobby Daniel (1961) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Bridgett Richardson | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Bridgett Williams | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Brooke Furkins (1992) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Carol Murphy | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Claudette Harris | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Colton Kemp (2005) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Dean Quinn | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Desiree Wright | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Erik Burton | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Jean Corbin | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Jeff Dickson | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Jodie Tucker (1991) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, John Forrest Arnold (1964) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Lester Sneed | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Maurice Cheatham | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Murrell Burton | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Ruth Ann Smith | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Shauna Maria Grant | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Sheila Willis | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Shenna Lea Smith | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Tabitha Mann | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Thelma Hatcher | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Trevor Riley Murphy | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Jonathan Dale Farris, Liberty, KY (1981-2018) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Gladys Pepper Milby, Greensburg, KY (1924-2018) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Johnnie Wesley Jessie, Summersville, KY (1962-2019) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Mark Wayne Mitchell, Greensburg, KY (1942-2019) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Harry Kessler, Greensburg, KY (1945-2019) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Vickie Jo Brooks, Columbia, KY (1960-2020) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Thomas L.
