Fund established to aid fire victim

NEW CASTLE — A fund has been set up to help the victim of Easter Sunday’s fire in North Beaver Township.

Linda Shoaff lost her home on New Road and everything in it during the afternoon blaze. The house is a total loss and two of Shoaff’s dogs perished in the fire.

Her daughters — Lacey Hammond and Jill Jones — have set up a fund at First Commonwealth Bank.

Anyone who is interested in helping Shoaff may take or mail a contribution to any First Commonwealth Bank branch and earmark it for the Linda Shoaff Fire Fund.

The Lawrence County commissioners have decided to solicit proposals for the private operation of the county jail. Good idea?

Yes. If it’s a more efficient way to run the jail, I’m all for it.
No. I think there would be too many questions of liability for the county.
Not sure. The county seems to be doing a good job of running the jail now. Why break it if it’s not broken?
