To the individual who called the Lake Placid Sweetbay store on Saturday morning, Jan. 19: According to the account of the conversation that was given to me, you said it was the first time you and your husband had ever been in our store and it would be the last time, because I was so inexcusably and excessively rude to you.

I would like to thank all of you who helped with the Buddy Poppy Drive on Nov. 10 and 11. I can't name you all but you know who you are. I would also like to thank David Flowers for allowing us to do the poppy drive at the Heartland Idol Saturday night. A thank you also goes out to the managers of Wal-Mart, Publix, Sweetbay and Winn-Dixie for allowing us to hand out poppies on those days. We had a very successful drive and we couldn't have done it without the help of everyone involved. Again a big thank you to all. ...more
