We support Richard Boehr and his dedication to Bluffton. His on going project to improve the Shannon cemetery is a wonderful way to memorialize and honor the deceased.
It’s about time that Blufftonites stick up for Richard Boehr and all that he has done for Bluffton, including the Shannon Cemetery, which he is thoroughly trying to improve. Where were all you complainers when the cemetery was in shambles?
Why is it that the person in this town who does something productive, gets blasted from people who do nothing but cause turmoil?
The good souls who live above ground and now who will be memorialized are shaking their fingers at the people who can’t leave well enough alone.

Dear Village of Bluffton council members, Mayor Augusburger, and Mr. Mehaffie,
Thank you so much for listening to my concerns about pedestrian safety at the intersection of College and Main at your streets and alleys committee meeting on May 18.
Since that meeting, I have observed vehicle and pedestrian traffic before and after school. On Tuesday, May 19, I counted 200 cars in the intersection in the 15-minute span between 3 and 3:15 p.m. Only two drivers stopped to allow pedestrians to use the crosswalk.
The Board of Directors and the staff of the Bluffton Senior Center would like to thank Rick and Ruth Grihalva from Forever in Stitches for the very generous donation after they closed the retail side of their business. They gifted the Senior Center with much fabric, kits and sewing notions. The sewers at the Senior Center will be set for quite a while.
Spring is here and that means the end of the school year is quickly approaching.
The PTO committee has been busy discussing and working on many projects we want to complete before the end of the school year.
We will be providing $400 for each grade level (K through 5th) to purchase new accelerated reader books; a total of $2400.
We will be purchasing three SmartBoards, along with USB cables, for three of the third grade classrooms. One classroom was completed previously. The cost will be around $4758.
