Dear Editor: On Sunday, December 29, we hosted a CHS boys’ hockey team dinner at T&B Pub in Canton Center. It was fantastic. The thin crust pizza was delicious, rivaling anything from anywhere, and a steal at only $6 a pie. The chicken parmesan was also really good. The chicken cutlets were crispy and the […]

It had been a wonderful vacation because both my girls were in town for 12 days. It’s funny how parents of older children measure their kids’ at-home times. I didn’t realize it until my friend Peg told me that she had a great vacation because her daughter had come home for 11 days. Almost like […]
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 […]

Did you know … At midnight on December 31, 2013, an old and decrepit Father Time, representing the year 2013, will finally come to an end. For some, it will be a happy passing while others will be sad about it. For many, it is a time to make a lot of New Year’s resolutions, […]
My baby is about to turn 30 next week. How is it possible that my little bright eyes has been in my life for 30 years? No one ever warns you how quickly child-years race by. Or maybe they do, but you’re not really listening until suddenly, you are the parent of a child who […]
