Henry Walker says he didn't have a choice when it came to taking a job at Kroger when he was 17 years old. His mother, who worked at the home of Richard Morris, Kroger manager at the time, made him take it. "She didn't give me a second choice," he said. He did choose, however, to stick with Kroger for 44 years until his recent retirement, something he was not expecting when he took the job.

Four days before Christmas, I was grocery shopping at Kroger with my 21-month-old grandson. In my haste to take the hungry boy home, I parked the shopping cart in the parking lot stand, lifted him out, and absentmindedly left my purse in the cart. As soon as I got home, I realized my mistake and in a panic, went inside to call Kroger. On my answering machine was a message that my purse had been turned in and I could pick it up at the Kroger customer service desk. I grabbed some crackers for my grandson and drove back to Kroger.

As Christmas approaches, one Winchester resident is spreading holiday cheer to animals in need. For the past six months, Terry Welch, of Lafayette Boulevard, has been going behind the Goodwill store to feed stray cats. He goes to the spot, located at the top of a hill and surrounded by shrubs, about twice a day, once in the early afternoon and once around dinner time. Welch said he began the practice after feeding a couple of cats behind Kroger for a while. “I just kept on coming back and before you know it, there were about 10 or 11 cats,” he said.

I tried grocery shopping in the Danville Walmart recently and only two lanes were open. There were at least eight customers in each line, and even the self checkout lanes were full. There are more than 20 lanes, so it's utterly ridiculous that only two were open. I left my cart, full of groceries, and informed the staff they would have to put them away because I could not be checked out in a timely manner. I spent nothing, and if I see the same conditions in the future, I will stop spending my hard-earned money in Walmart all together.
