Letter: Parent proud of BHS wrestling program

Icon:

Have you ever stumbled upon something quite by accident, than over a period of time realized you found something worthwhile, something life-changing.

I am a Bluffton High School parent who has found that something! My son came to us his Sophomore year expressing an interest in joining the Bluffton High School wrestling team.

Letter: Thank you Bluffton businesses for your support

Icon:
I would like to personally thank those businesses in the Bluffton Village who helped further my dreams of playing professional football at the next level by sponsoring me for the Hansen All-Star Senior Bowl in Virginia Beach, Virginia on January 16th.

The Icon's llama friends send a letter to Santa

The Icon received a letter to Santa from one of the llamas at the Hard Rock Llama farm, rural Bluffton. Anyone who attends the Bluffton Arts and Crafts show each May has had a chance to say hello to some of the llamas. The farm is operated by Mike, Wendy and Mandy Gerken.

The letter came from a baby llama, who is yet to have a name, however, it signed the letter "Milk Toast." 

We invited viewers to read the letter and to get an update on the life of llamas in rural Bluffton.

Letter: Thanks for diligent employees in village utility department

Icon viewers:

I wanted to take a moment to once again thank the diligent employees we have in the Bluffton Utilities Dept. No matter what time of day they are there to help you with your emergency situation with calm and professionalism.
Thank you

From Kyler to Santa

 

Dear Santa:

Letter: Enjoyed the Andrew Bixel interview

Message to Andrew Bixel:

 My wife and I enjoyed the Bixel interview. My wife, Joy, is also a Hope College graduate, and I am a Bluffton College graduate. Small world. We have been married 45 years. Kindly pass along to Andrew that the liberal arts of both colleges make for an ideal relationship.

Thanks NSB,

Letter: I enjoy your book "A Good Place to Miss"

Fred:

I've been browsing in "AGood Place To Miss" and having a fine time remembering my younger years. It was a great idea to compile it.
