Truck route comments on how to get around Square Has everyone driven the routes to help big rig drivers get around Columbia and avoid the Courthouse Square? We have another special event coming up - "A Magical Christmas" parade on Dec. 2, 2023 that will close the Square off and drivers who are not familiar with downtown need to know. From what we hear, GPS is no help and drivers wind up on little streets not fun for drivers of vehicles of any size. Letters we received so far are not from actual drivers so we're posting the topic again in hopes those who actually drive the big trucks can share their routes.

Frank Wilcoxson, 86, Taylor County, KY (1937-2023) Frank Harden Wilcoxson, 86, of Campbellsville, passed away on November 15, 2023 surrounded by family after a long and fruitful life. He served in the Kentucky National Guard and was a faithful member and deacon at Beech Grove Baptist Church. He owned Wilcoxson Construction and enjoyed building barns for farms across the state. But his favorite work was tending the land, and he raised countless cows, donkeys, horses, pigs and--in the later years--fainting goats. He was a farmer in every sense of the word, cultivating life and growth in all sorts of places, from the fields to the Sunday school classroom. He was also an avid storyteller, a thing those who had the privilege of sitting around his kitchen table know all too well.
