On behalf of Bishop Bambara, and all of us gathered here this morning, I wish to express to Fr John’s family our prayers, friendship and condolences. We also thank Fr.

Your allowance was never enough, as a kid. Oh, sure, it bought you what you needed but what you wanted, well, you had to figure that out yourself. A dime here, a dollar there, little chores-for-pay, tasks for Grandma and you made it work. And as you’ll see in the new book, “Gigged” by Sarah
Strawberry Season Ahhh, the beginning of June! Schools out, and the pickin is grand! Strawberry pickin that is! I remember back in my younger days that when school left out, we had a strawberry pickin day with mom. As long as it wasn’t hot, I didn’t mind it, but if my upper lip started to
This article is about an automobile built in Williamsport called the Imperial. In October 1905 N. Barrow Bubb started a garage.

I love Father’s Day because it gives us a chance to put our dads in the spotlight – a place they’d normally not choose to be. I have three different men in my life who have the roll of a father figure. One being my amazing dad, Lee Perry, who was and has always been
The Williamsport Civic Chorus slated to go on a concert tour of Ireland on June 28, will have a concert previewing some of the music they will be singing on that tour, when they present a free concert on Monday, June 24 at 7 p.m. at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Williamsport. Four concerts are
