I was on hardcore drugs 15 years ago and into lots of trouble, but 15 years ago I decided to give up booze and hardcore drugs after I hit rock bottom and ended up in a homeless shelter in Harrisburg. I now celebrate recovery and have a great support system. It is not easy but I put my faith ...
I would like to commend William Heggenstaller on his letter ‘’Marionette dictator’’ in the March 12 edition of the Williamsport Sun-Gazette. Very well stated and spot on. It is encouraging to see well-informed and educated people writing in to the Sun-Gazette. And when I say ...
