This week’s stories include two that are close to the hearts of everyone in our community: a front-page story on a fundraiser for local cancer patient Hezzie Pipkin, and an article on a missing teenage girl whose parents are desperate to find her. Our history report this week was on the first African American teacher at Dundee Community Schools (research courtesy of Douglas Heinlen). Please read these features and feel their closely related themes on this beautiful Valentine’s Day: we are here to love and help each other.
