Dear Editor: It appears St. Gerard’s Church is heading in a negative direction. Recently the music director and the entire adult choir were told they were not to be singing any longer. I am in the choir and it was quite a shock, especially at the holiday season. “Cost” was cited as a reason and […]
Dear Editor: To many of you, the holiday season begins with the preparation of decorating the outside of your house before the real bitter weather of New England falls upon us. We begin by cleaning the yard of the fallen leaves, making sure the flower beds are all pruned, the last of the leaves are […]
Dear Editor: We just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the coaches of the Pop Warner C Team: Doug Ragusa, Lee Bryant and Craig Allen. Like all coaches, their volunteerism is what makes youth sports possible through their commitment and donation of their time. This triumvirate seems to have mastered the balance between dedication, […]
Look! Canton, again you have outdone yourself, raising taxes while the country is in deep financial trouble. Where do the people go that have lost or almost lost their homes, or businesses?

Dear Editor: On November 6, Temple Beth Abraham hosted the 23rd running of the Canton Fall Classic, attracting nearly 600 sign-ups for the 10K, 5K and the kids’ one-mile fun run.

Dear Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank former firefighter Butch King for his continued effort, even in retirement, in providing quality CPR and first aid instruction to the citizens and employees of the town.

To George Comeau: Thank you for your wonderful article about Ed Bolster in last week’s Canton Citizen (October 20). Ed was a great man, a humble man, a humorous man, and a trusted friend. Your article brings Ed’s spirit and unusual life to so many new people who did not have the privilege of personally […]
A message to the community: I want to take this opportunity to thank the town of Canton and Canton High School for the years of support I was given as the boys’ basketball coach at Canton High School. I cherished every single day that I was involved with the basketball program in Canton, and it […]
Dear Tony Andreotti: I am writing to thank you and your committee for putting together the program honoring the Vietnam Era veterans on Sunday, September 11. As a veteran who served in Vietnam from February 1968 to February 1969, I felt a sense of homecoming from the moment I was greeted at the registration table. […]

We know that our loss is felt throughout the entire town, and your thoughts and prayers have always helped us get through what […]
