HUBBUB: Fund sidewalks, grateful for childhood cancer awareness

Teenager's death a tragedy

Very, very sad. Maybe now the city of Crestview will … fund sidewalks for its roadways especially those side roads.

… As more and more people get into fitness, my fear is that this will occur more and more. The roads are tight, in disrepair, and nowhere for pedestrians to walk.

An absolute tragedy: A young person getting ready to begin life struck down. My sincerest sympathies!

Grateful for childhood cancer column

Thomas Boni, I'm grateful for your editorial and for your sharing facts for September's Childhood Cancer Awareness Month!

Since moving to Crestview in 1979, the Crestview Bulletin has been a source of vital local information and recognition.

Before Crestview became a larger "small town," every student in our area had their name and/or photograph in "The Bulletin" sooner or later.

It is my prayer that cancer research will advance to the point of a cure and prevention in my lifetime and that there will no longer be a need for awareness, fundraising, spam or special features on children or adults suffering with cancer or long term effects from treatment!

Little has changed since Ivan

Nothing has changed since Ivan. When we get another (hurricane), it will be a major disaster. No additional roads or alternatives have been created. Even today it is gridlock in the morning and afternoon going through Crestview.

If a fender bender occurs, may as well call it a day. Accident investigation takes forever and blocks the road for too long a period.

Tried to report IRS collection scam

Received one of these scams and tried to tell the sheriff's department in Crestview, but sadly, they were all too busy to speak to me. Sat there for 40 minutes.
