The bio should have read: Bio: BHS Class of ‘67, Vietnam Veteran awarded Bronze Star, Married 38 years to Margaret. 60 year resident of Beavercreek, serving on: Board of [...]
A talent from the start Craig is a longtime friend of mine from high school. I remember him in printing class. He always had a knack for unique art and just being different. In my own line of work and trying to be different from the norm, I can certainly appreciate the time, care and [...]
Where’s Illinois? I greatly enjoyed the forum from Oct. 4 but found it amazing that neither side mentioned Illinois.
