Saturday's Letters to the editor
Kudos to a giving community
Dear editor:
I have lived in Hot Springs about three months now. Since I arrived I keep reading in The Sentinel-Record about so many individuals, organizations, and various entities giving, giving, giving! They serve so many diverse cross-sections of our community, and in so many different ways, that it just jumps off the pages. What a giving, altruistic, and compassionate community I now live in. I consider myself so lucky to live here.
