Every citizen should be able to use and enjoy their property as they see fit (within the boundaries of the law) without interference from their neighbors. Ms. White’s new home is cause for celebration and is something we can all be proud of. It’s always nice to see tax dollars used to provide those in need with relief. Now the question remains, will the City of Oak Hill step up, do the right thing, and complete the circle?

This Memorial Day weekend, while spending time with family and friends, please take time to reflect upon our county’s fallen soldiers and the sacrifice they made while protecting our freedom. To learn more about citizens of Oak Hill who died while serving in the Armed Services of the United States, visit the Oak Hill Field of Honor. It’s located at the intersection of U.S. 1 and Halifax Avenue. There you will find a flag which represents a citizen of our city who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect us.
