Floyd County police are asking the public to avoid the rail-road crossing on Park Avenue in Lindale Thursday due to work on the railroad. Sgt. Gary Conway, head of the Floyd County Police Department’s Selective Enforcement Unit, said the crossing near Old Rockmart Road will be shut down from about 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. He said there would be very limited traffic allowed through the crossing during this time. Detour signs will be posted directing motorists to use Booze Mountain Road or Eden Valley Road if approaching from the south and Old Rockmart Road if approaching from the North. Conway said Norfolk Southern will be doing some repairs to the tracks.

While the graduates of 2013 begin to prepare for the culture shock of college, one Ridgeland High School alumnus returns to Rossville after receiving his prestigious degree.

On May 30 Joshua Garcia, 22, graduated cum laude in English from Harvard.

Garcia, who was Ridgeland High’s 2009 valedictorian, has since visited with classmates and his former teachers upon returning this summer. He also attended Ridgeland’s commencement as his younger brother, Jason received his diploma.

“It has been a combination of relaxing and getting ready for the next step,” Garcia said.

He decided upon a bachelor’s degree in English during his sophomore year of college to harness his interests in creative writing that began while taking English and history courses at Ridgeland.

She is not "Otwell". She changed her name to Ann Serpentfoot-Mooney. I hope your comment was written in jest. If not, you really have some issues of your own to deal with. I don't think that the "Dude's dead already" excuse would fly very well with his family. Thanks for your input though. Move on please.
