The NBA playoffs are over, and the Raptors were victorious — yea! Deservedly so Kawhi Leonard received the playoff MVP. It was an amazing performance throughout the playoffs by Kawhi and an incredible success story for the Toronto Raptors — go Canada! I am not a huge NBA fan anymore but like to root for
World War II French Military Leader Jean de Lattre de Tassiguy was once quoted saying, “An optimist is a man who plants two acorns and buys a hammock.” I often pass by South Williamsport Lions Club member Max Dell’s house and have not yet spotted either oak trees or a hammock in his yard.

Father John Manno came to Annunciation Parish (as it was known then) right around the time I left home for college. So, I never had the same level of interactions with him that rest of my family experienced. I did enjoy his homilies when I came home for weekend visits, and I was impressed with
It is sometimes a tedious task to cover the Lycoming County Commissioner’s Meetings, but Thursday, June 13th was not one of those times.

If ever there was a Leader in Our Neighborhood (LION) it was Father John Manno, who passed away on May 30th at the age of 78. Tributes to the man poured in throughout the region because he touched many lives far beyond his own parish. Much has been written about this extraordinary individual, but I
