    Like you, I depend on the bus to get to work and get around in general so I completely understand your anger and frustration. It seems like we're always being told to use public transportation then fares go up, routes are cancelled, and the drivers have no idea of what a schedule means. If there's a petition about this, please let us know - I'll sign in a heartbeat! The prayers are already being prayed. If there's ANYTHING we can do to help this cause, let us know.

    My letter to the editor is out

    Just got a call from a guy who works with our senior center here. He thanked me for my letter to the editor. He is working with the bus people too trying to get the funding. He said it was one of the best letters ever and is going to keep it.

    He is getting a list of the businesses in town to give to our city manager to see about donations.
    It is so nice to have an ally in this battle. I feel lots more positive now.

    He did ask for prayers so please keep them coming.
    I thank you again for them.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Good for you. Sounds like there is a real chance to get positive results for you & others. Will continue with

    Thinking of you and praying for good news! I'm glad you have an ally in this battle. If there's one, there's more... hopefully your letter will bring them out of the woodwork.

    Well done, Connie! That's great that you already have an ally.

    Prayers and good wishes are continuing from us, too.

    Great news! The businesses in town might lose a few customers if bus service is no longer offered. I wonder if they thought about that?

    More prayers going out!

    So sorry you are going through this kind of problem...budget cuts, seems we hear that every day and it also seems it only applies to lay people. Wonder why the representatives who should be working for us don't take a cut in pay to help keep the buses going.
    I'm flabbergasted to say the least that this would happen anywhere. Do you have Red Cross where you are? Our Red Cross has volunteer drivers to take them to appointments, shopping, hairdressers etc etc. And they will also give anyone a day a week to do housework if they are unable. I'll keep my fingers crossed that there is some kind of volunteers where you are that will be able to help you out-- sending up prayers also and hope they help. Keep us posted on the impact your letter has.
