Dear Editor:
I grew up with two sets of grandparents, five sets of aunts and uncles and numerous cousins all living in the same county with many more extended family, neighbors and friends to count on.
It served to be the glue that kept us together through many trying times. It wasn’t perfect and it never will be. Your kids grown up and try to find their own path.
As a retiree to Virginia, I find Page County beautiful, but disjointed in setting goals.
COVID hit three months into my move. I wish I could say it’s all been good since, but it’s not. I’d like to get people talking and taking steps for change. What is your biggest complaint?
In case you didn’t already assume, I don’t participate in social media.
Let’s just help one another as best we can.
Paula Dorangrichia ~ Stanely, Va.
