Letter from William Kose, MD, JD, Vice President of Special Projects, Blanchard Valley Health System

As the days get shorter and cooler, community members should be aware that multiple infectious diseases will be more prevalent, including COVID-19, influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). If you are someone who always gets vaccinated, here’s a reminder that this is the time of year to do so. And, if you aren’t, now could be a great time to start.

Letter: Significance of August 8 NO vote

Posted by Staff on September 5, 2023 - 9:28am

It is our sincere hope that members of the Ohio legislature realize the importance and significance of the “NO” vote on Issue #1 on August 8, 2023. The citizens of Ohio said they want their voice heard in regards to state policies, laws and constitution.

We want elected officials who will work for the public good, not the party good!

Letter: Where are these Dillinger era furnishings?

Posted by Paula Scott on August 27, 2023 - 6:00am

I enjoyed reading of the recent Dillinger robbery reenactment. I am reading through the old Bluffton News online and found this about the auction of some furnishings from the Citizens Bank. Wonder where these furnishings are now that probably were in the bank at the time of the robbery.
