Letter: The good old days

Posted

To the editor:

As my 65th high school reunion is quickly approaching on July 2, I dug out my yearbook. What impressed me the most was that on one page was a picture of a class praying with the caption “Time for God”. On the next page was a picture of a class with their hands over their heart facing the American Flag with the caption “Time for Our Country”.

Those were the good old days. They say the country is progressing, but in what direction?

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
