On Dec. 15, my family will participate in the annual Wreaths Across America event at Barancas National Cemetery in Pensacola, Florida, Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery in St. Louis, and the Houston National Cemetery.
It's that time of the year when I hear weather forecasters warning drastic climate conditions coming, which will be perceived to change life as we know it, in the way of a "cold" front. It's going to get down to the low 40s and maybe "life" threatening 30s.

With each passing year, the Lone Star Rally’s collective auditory assaults, flouting of traffic laws and unsafe motorcycling seems to worsen.
I have a solution for the "southern invaders." Stop everyone at the border.
Galveston Island, with its spirit of helping, has an active veteran community. Two jewels on the island are the Gulf Coast Center, with Heather Melton as its veteran volunteer coordinator for veterans services, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post No. 880 with Cmdr. Michael Caballero at the helm.
In response to the letter by Alan Baezner ("Please deny zoning change in neighborhood," The Daily News, Oct. 25): It’s hardly a “zoning” change. The property is located at 2627 Avenue O, but actually fronts on 27th Street.
