Lovely Lapeer
the county press was owned by Ben Myers for years, and as I recall, he got alzheimers. He did not enjoy having alzheimers and so after some struggles he wrote one last column, walked out in the woods behind his house and commited suicide. There is a very cool bronze sculpture of him sitting on a park bench reading a newspaper. the sculpture sits in the foyer of the Lapeer County Medical Care Facility, where many elderly alzheimer's patients are cared for. I wonder if this was Ben's father in the build record?
