Note: The following letter was written in response to Joe DeFelice’s Man About Canton column that appeared on January 30. Dear Editor: Welcome to February … The month when people stop saying Happy New Year.

The Friends of the Canton Public Library wish to thank all who sponsored the Caddystacks Mini Golf fundraiser at the library through generous donations of cash, gift cards, goods, and services.

Dear Editor: Thank you, thank you, thank you. Those words cannot be said enough and they will never relay completely how our families feel. Saturday night at the Canton Town Club was amazing.

Dear Editor: As I mentioned to Canton Citizen publisher Beth Erickson recently, I believe Jay Turner does an excellent job covering municipal news in Canton. He asks very relevant questions. He quotes people accurately. He keeps probing until he uncovers the story behind the story. In a small town it must be very difficult to […]
Dear Editor: How many more accidents have to happen before a living person is killed through lack of common sense? The traffic light at Turnpike (Route 138) and Randolph streets is wrong! There should be a left only with arrow for both facing lanes of traffic, rather than the Russian roulette of hoping a driver […]
