hCheers: To Jeb, nurse in the post-anesthesia care unit at Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Southwest during my recent stay. His care and concern for his patients are surpassed only by his nursing skills.

Cheers: To Fort Worth Police Chief Jeff Halstead, lead investigator Brad Thompson and others for uncovering the elaborate scam of Michael McDowell impersonating a decorated military officer. Hopefully, McDowell’s shameful and disgusting charade will not diminish the honorable service of actual military members.

h Cheers: To the Grapevine-Colleyville area. After my mother suffered a stroke, my parents moved from Houston to Colleyville. Leoni Michael found them a home, Marcy Roitman-Boothe gave Dad a job, Dr. Oliver gave Dad dental work that made his smile complete. Thank you for your love and kindness.

h Cheers: To the Hurst-Euless-Bedford school district for offering professional development opportunities in early childhood education at no cost to private pre-schools and day care centers in the H-E-B area. All H-E-B personnel are friendly, helpful and encouraging, and our staff always learns something new we can use in our program.

Jeers: To Texas Sens. Cornyn and Cruz for putting guns, money and bullets over the safety, health and welfare of Texans and other citizens. Plus, those senators who joined their ranks should be ashamed of themselves. This convinces me of the need for term limits for all politicians.

Cheers: To Walking Tall Ranch in Pilot Point for taking in 10 dressage horses, their distraught owners and their trainer/instructor on very short notice. Owner, staff and other boarders were very welcoming and attended to our every need. We are all settled in and very pleased.

Jeers: To a local landscaping company that would not come back to our property to evaluate problems with our newly planted grass. No follow-up to numerous calls and emails. Nothing! Guess their motto is: “Get our money and it’s done!”
