Fannie Hatfield Hospice Ceremony_Part II Ashland, KY
Daily Independent (Ashland, KY)
ASHLAND — March 22 was proclaimed Fannie Hatfield Day by Ashland Mayor Thomas E. Kelley and Greenup County Judge-Executive Robert W. Carpenter in recognition of her founding the first local Hospice Quilters group and to acknowledge her countless hours of volunteer work.
From the original group that began at Thomas Sewing Center in Greenup, three more groups have been formed, one each from Boyd and Carter counties in Kentucky, and Lawrence County in Ohio. There are a total of 52 quilters who have donated about 2,500 quilts since it began in 2003.
We thank the Highlands Museum and Discovery Center for hosting a luncheon where we were presented with these proclamations. Our thanks also go to Mayor Kelley and Judge-Executive Carpenter for honoring our mother/grandmother. We also thank Nancy Osborne and those who hosted the event.
It's a blessing to have a mom and grandmother who, through her efforts, has touched so many lives.

Trump's Muslim Surviellance Idea is Ridiculous - Rand Paul
Senator Rand Paul held a town hall meeting in Ashland, Kentucky Monday. Paul talked for about 20 minutes before taking questions from a crowd of dozens at the Highlands Museum and Discovery Center.
If you want Kentucky to thrive, if you want the United States to thrive, you have to leave more money in the private sector, Paul said.
The senator said taking in a large number of Syrian refugees would not be fiscally responsible.
We have a lot of people in our country hurting without importing people we're going to put on welfare, he said.
Paul says comments by GOP frontrunner Donald Trump that mosques should be under surveillance and and Muslims should register in a database are too extreme.
I think it's a crazy idea to register people of a certain religion or to do surveillance of different religious places of worship, he said.

A Short Bio on Rand Paul
Senator Rand Paul, M.D. is one of the nation’s leading advocates for liberty. Elected to the U.S. Senate in 2010, Dr. Paul has proven to be an outspoken champion for constitutional liberties and fiscal responsibility. As a fierce advocate against government overreach, Rand has fought tirelessly to return government to its limited, constitutional scope.
A devoted husband and father, Dr. Paul and his family live in Bowling Green, Kentucky, where Rand owned his own ophthalmology practice and performed eye surgery for 18 years. As a hard-working and dedicated physician--not a career politician--Rand Paul came to Washington to shake things up and to make a difference.
Dr. Paul has been married for 24 years to Kelley Ashby Paul of Russellville, Kentucky, and together, they have three sons: William, 21; Duncan, 18; and Robert, 15. He regularly volunteered to coach teams for each of his three sons in Little League baseball, soccer, and basketball. Rand and Kelley are both devout Christians and are active in their local church.
Rand is the third of five children born to Carol and Ron Paul. He grew up in Lake Jackson, Texas and attended Baylor University. He graduated from Duke Medical School in 1988. Dr. Paul completed a general surgery internship at Georgia Baptist Medical Center in Atlanta and completed his residency in ophthalmology at Duke University Medical Center. Upon completion of his training in 1993, Rand and Kelley moved to Bowling Green to start their family and begin his ophthalmology practice.
In 1995, Rand founded the Southern Kentucky Lions Eye Clinic, an organization that provides eye exams and surgery to needy families and individuals. Rand is a former president and 17 year member of Lions Clubs International, which is dedicated to preserving sight by providing eyeglasses and surgery to the less fortunate around the world. In recognition of his outstanding and sustained efforts to provide vision care to Kentuckians in need, Lions Clubs International has awarded Rand many of its highest commendations.
A large part of Rand's daily work as an ophthalmologist was dedicated to preserving the vision of our seniors. In 2002, The Twilight Wish Foundation recognized Rand for Outstanding Service and Commitment to Seniors.
Dr. Paul's entrance into politics is indicative of his life’s work as a surgeon: a desire to diagnose problems and provide practical solutions, whether it be in Bowling Green, Kentucky or Washington, D.C.
Randal Howard Rand Paul (born January 7, 1963) is an American physician and politician from Kentucky. In office since 2011, Paul currently serves in the United States Senate as a member of the Republican Party. He is also a trained ophthalmologist, and is the middle son of former U.S. Representative and physician Ron Paul of Texas.
Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Paul attended Baylor University and is a graduate of the Duke University School of Medicine. Paul began practicing ophthalmology in 1993 in Bowling Green, Kentucky, and established his own clinic in December 2007.
Paul has been considered a supporter of the Tea Party movement, and a vocal critic of the Federal Reserve System. He has opposed NSA mass surveillance of Americans and supports reduced government spending and taxation. He describes himself as 100% pro-life and has cosponsored legislation for equal protection of the right to life from conception. Paul officially announced his candidacy for the 2016 U.S. presidential election on April 7, 2015.

No one was in the mood to have their pictures taken, but here it is, anyway, photos and video footage from the 2008 Keith Whitley fan gathering held at the Laurel Gorge Heritage Center in Sandy Hook, KY back on August 30th, held in conjunction with the local Tobacco Festival. Included in the video are pictures of Keith that were included in the exhibit and some exhibits new to this year donated to the center by the Highlands Center & Discovery Museum in Ashland, KY. Also, Bill Arnold is featured in the video discussing the subtle differences in the cover art of the 1st & 2nd pressings of his 2003 CD One Lucky Man, in his own unique way.
Music featured on the video is That's Where I Want to Take Our Love by Keith Whitley from his 1991 OOP CD Kentucky Bluebird, and Hands of Time from Bill Arnold from his aforementioned CD One Lucky Man.
Yet another thank you goes out to Josh for mad bird-playing skills and for bringing his iPod.
Quote of the Day honors belong to Mrs. Flo Whitley, director of the Laurel Gorge Heritage Center, who was heard from her office saying, Looks like there's more going on out there than just Keith Whitley. Flo, you are more than just a pretty face!
