On April 4, I read “Project might get funding help,” a story about Davenport’s Taylor School renovation. I think it’s great that seniors might get affordable living areas. With all the road blocks keeping this project from its goal, I am glad that with the help HOME funds and the Community Development Block Grant funding it may be done.

I have seen what it’s like for grandparents to be forced out of their homes because they have no money. My grandparents have been forced to move three times. They couldn’t stop it, they had medical bills to pay. I have high hopes for the Taylor Heights School rehabilitation project.

I hope that this project is the start of something more and think others should follow Davenport’s example.

    I will be a guest at someone’s home.
    I plan to eat out at a local restaurant.
    I will eat at home but we are not cooking: Some or all of the food will be catered.
    I hosted Thanksgiving for years. It is someone else’s turn.
