Wonderful memories of mother

Dear Editor,


I’ve enjoyed reading the “Remembering Mama” letters. I to have memories of my mother tho she passed away when I was almost nine years old.


Mama sewed a lot for me and my two sisters. I still have a special Sunday School dress she made for me, much by hand. I believe I was about seven years old so the dress now is 71 years young!


Mama also made the best applesauce cake I’ve ever tasted. Unfortunately, we have no recipe.


Memories are wonderful, aren’t they?

Gov. Terry Branstad released a $25 million education reform package that calls for more rigorous testing of students, higher standards for the state's teaching corps and includes a $10 million statewide literacy initiative. How do you feel about the cost of this plan?
Right now, the state cannot afford to spend $25 million on education reform.
It's $25 million well spent.
I don't care.
