Dear editor, More from the Conversation! Some very good questions were asked at our recent Eastside Conversation. Sometimes our initial answers are not the best, or most complete. The benefit of time to ref lect, consider and consult can help form a better response.

Weather permitting, the recrowning of The 1895's bell tower is scheduled for Tuesday, April 2 at 1 p.m. There will be places to stand and watch across the street. Won't that be exciting? I'm so glad it's happening in time for all the sesquicentennial events. —kwc— When my memories come up on social media, I sometimes get a laugh, especially the ones during the pandemic because the best part of the whole thing was the silly and funny memes people shared.
First some sad news. A member of The Reporter Gang, Linda Whorton, died this past Tuesday. She worked here for 36 years. Naturally, her son Shannon was out on Wednesday being with his family which is exactly where he should have been.
