Giving back in honor of Greco

Special to The HeraldSimmons Bradshaw and Rivers Wells have spent the past few weeks collecting toys to donate to the Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children in honor of Leta Greco. Greco, 3, was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago. The toys will be given as prizes to children at the hospital’s cancer center after they receive treatment. Simmons is the daughter of Dan and Melissa Bradshaw. Rivers is the daughter of Brad Wells and Mr. and Mrs. J.D. Cresswell. Pictured from left are Rivers, Simmons and Ashley Prendez, child life specialist at the children’s cancer clinic.
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
