David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Written by David Schaef

Linesville Area Chamber of Commerce welcomed in the holiday season with its traditional Linesville Pays It Forward which started on December 1, and ends on December 20. Then on Saturday, December 3, with the Christmas Tree Lane at Mickle’s Barn and its 3rd Annual Christmas Tractor Parade.

People were able to view the Christmas trees decorated by organizations and businesses of Linesville while listening to the Methodist Bell Choir and the CASH vocal choir.

They could also enjoy a spaghetti dinner sponsored by the Friends of Music which benefits the CASH Band.

At 5:30 pm the Christmas Lighted Tractor parade started, not only to bring in the Christmas season but also to thank our farming community.

Announcing the parade was Toadie Foster from Froggy 100.3 and John Beagle.
