Michael Jackson was a man of compassion
DEAR EDITOR: For two decades, I worked in various segments of the entertainment industry. What began as a part-time job as a bodyguard ended with a lifetime of memories of so many top-name performers; stars such as the Rolling Stones, The Who, Bob Seger and Elton John and far too many to recall here and now. As so many of the young men who came to this line of work, I was a returning veteran from Vietnam working his way through college, every night acting as a bodyguard for the world’s biggest stars. We were the big fellows who wore the bright yellow shirts and stood in front of the stages at all the concerts in Cleveland and cities far away. It was the 1980s, and the Jackson Tour was coming to the Cleveland Stadium that summer. Little did I know, this week-long event would come to define and remain paramount in my memory, only to come back in a flood of tears as the world now mourns the loss of an icon. The Jackson tour was scheduled for the old Cleveland stadium.

When you open your electric bill and see it has jumped 90 percent, you will have one person to thank for that increased cost to you. That person would be the 16th Congressional District’s Representative, John A. Boccier.
Lyme disease is vastly underreported
DEAR EDITOR:
The story you published on lyme disease is biased, inaccurate and appalling to read. How do I know this? Because I have chronic lyme disease.
Salaried worker is sacrificial lamb
DEAR EDITOR:
A few years after I began a career at Delphi Packard Electric I was laid off. I had just completed building a house and was finishing up my BS degree at YSU.
Electric bill will look a little different
DEAR EDITOR:
People should check out their electric bills this month. As of June 1, all discounts are gone so customers will see a huge increase in their bill if they have an all-electric home or received any type of discount.
Health care proposal would be a disaster
DEAR EDITOR:
I continue to be extremely concerned and angered about the health care legislation that is being presented by President Obama.
This piece of legislation will dramatically change our rights as American citizens.
