Help the less fortunate
Gun Barrel City — Dear Editor,
Today you and I have a lot to be thankful for.
First we live in America, have a job, pay our bills and support our families. But with the economy in the state its in, there are a lot of people who have lost their jobs and for the first time have had to ask for help.
Not only do they have no job the utilities have gone up and they find they can’t pay them and have no place to go.
The Family Resource Center is helping pay their bills and guide them to other sources that can help them with their particular needs.
We are also lowering our prices in the thrift shop. Our winter clothing is 50% off. This includes our coats. A much needed item with this weather.
We are again giving out “Bonus Bucks.” Those of you that shop with us know how much they help. Our requests have doubled. Any help you can give us will help your neighbors.
We need money, gently used furniture and household items.
Toni Muirhead
Family Resource Director

Stick to the issues
It saddens me to see Betty Brown attempting to spread lies about her opponent being a district outsider. Lance Gooden was born and raised in Terrell and Betty knows this. Betty herself even briefly left the district to attend college before she dropped out and returned back to Terrell. Unfortunately, Betty continues to push this lie outside of Terrell, knowing that the folks in Lance’s hometown know better.
She should not try to distract voters from the real issue, her lack of effectiveness.
