Early voting begins Oct. 24
Early voting in the Nov. 8 general election begins Oct. 24 and runs through Nov. 4. Applications for voting by mail must be received by Oct. 28, according to the secretary of state’s office. Texans are eligible to vote by mail if they are 65 or older; sick or disabled; are expected to give birth within three weeks of Election Day; will be absent from the county where they vote during early voting and on Election Day; or are in jail but otherwise eligible. 10/22/2022 09:48 AM
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Dear Editor, City cemeteries in many places—Texas and elsewhere—have created effective and compassionate ways to enforce their versions of a “No Clutter Clause,” as it is so insensitively described in the Taylor City Cemetery’s “Rules for Beautification and Improvement.” From asking families to supplement perpetual- care funds, which every Taylor plot-owner is required to pay into already, by the way, to allowing church and community groups to organize volunteer cemetery clean-ups, cemeteries elsewhere are keeping things tidy without running roughshod over the bereaved. I likely am among many who have glossed over the “fine print” of the Taylor no-clutter clause while making funeral arrangements. When you’re in a state of shock, as we were after the sudden death in February of our dear friend, who would think to ask why neither a cross nor more than one set of flowers could be placed on her grave? 10/22/2022 09:48 AM
