To the editor:

I read Maynard Brandon’s letter in The Democrat about “missing the orange man” — and really you had four years in that article for everyone to see what has been taken away from us. I have saved it, making copies for my friends and to a few who are on that other side of the fence — or should I say, “fell off the fence,” hoping to see the BIG mistake they made.

Can’t wait for 2024 to get here. 2022 is important to get us started down the road of replacement and rebuilding.
