CNB ARCHIVES: CHEERS AND JEERS FOR The Month of JULY 2009
CNB Archives Displayed here Monday, August 03, 2009 
By William E. Cleary Sr.
CHEERS: To the men from Highland Park Church of God, and Bill Wilson and his workers from Property Pro’s, for helping out when Kyle Warner was injured by a chainsaw. Special thanks to Doug and Don Conner, who stayed with Kyle until the paramedics arrived. It has been a long time since I have seen men who were working on a job stop what they were doing, and take the time to remove the tree, clean up the yard and everything that had fallen, and ask nothing in return. Just caring, common courtesy.
JEERS: To the Gloucester City Fire Chief and the Chief of Operations for not providing the public or CNB with statistics on fire and ambulance responses at the minimum of once a month to see where our tax dollars are being spent. Real stats not the ones you hand into council.
