Boys to Men

Every Thursday Timothy Donald rises early in his Jacksonville home, goes into work, gets things settled there and then sets out for Williston. It's a two-hour drive each way but he does it.

Every. Single. Thursday.

And while Williston was his first home, he's not coming to visit family, tour old stomping grounds or look up friends.

Instead, he heads toward Williston Middle High School where he will, for a little more than an hour, talk real – very real – to 12-13 young men.

Random thoughts for a random...

Many of you have sent me notes or dropped in to tell me how much you enjoy reading my personal column. Many of you have asked why I don't do it more often – like weekly.

Easy answer. I'm either A) worn out from everything that's going on that week or B) lacking inspiration.

I'm afraid B wins out more often than not.

I admire people who can write a weekly column, 52 weeks of the year, or the columnist who shares three times a week or more. I wish I could. I can't. I need inspiration.

Let it be told

I am a Baby Boomer. I grew up in the 1950s and 1960s. I remember parades on the 4th of July and Memorial Day and Veterans Day. I remember marching in those parades as a Brownie and a Girl Scout.

The parades ended at my town’s village green, where, after an invocation, we would listen to war veterans recall their experiences and their fellow soldiers. We children would sneak into a nearby candy store for popsicles which melted too fast.

April Students of the Month...

Williston Mayor Jerry Robinson and the city council paid tribute to the students of the month at last week's city council meeting.

Joyce Bullock Elementary second grade teacher Monica Cooper nominated Tenley Lewis, daughter of Cecily Gleason. Cooper wrote:

"Tenley is an amazing student and role model. She is intrinsically motivated, always putting forth great effort and working hard to do her absolute best. She is very bright but also very humble.
