I am so very sorry. This is a terrible, terrible tragedy. My heart goes out to the entire Running family; may they be comforted with love in this time of great sorrow.

A big thank you goes out to everyone who pulled off this great event this year; who said firework shows are only for kids? This was our first year to attend the fireworks for 4th of July celebration and the kids and I had a wonderful time.

Yes, we were a bit worried too, as expressed by a few others in this article because of the rain and whether or not the show would go on! Of course the show did go on, after all, this is Craig with its can do attitude. No monsoon rain was going to spoil the fun and now we have a new family tradition! Thanks again to the Craig Fire/Rescue, the B.L.M. and the Moffat County Sheriff’s Office; hope you all got the mud off your boots!

Thank you for your service and your sacrifice; your dedication to both our county and your comrades is truly humbling.

Congratulations. We appreciate the hard work, as well as understanding where the future in technology was heading and recognizing that we could lead the way. While Craig may be considered small in size compared to a big city, it is wonderful that we have forward thinking leadership that has enabled the city to be recognized as a leader to be envied by larger cities in this very important arena. A big thank you to the both teams in tackling the difficult challenges of this very important transition with both professionalism and superb collaboration. Great job and thank you!

I want to thank Ms. Albers for writing to the Daily Press today about the increasingly troubling issue of personal and libelous attacks taking place within our online community and specifically here on the Daily Press forum. I have been in the Moffat County area for only a short time and have been welcomed with open arms and deeply appreciate the friendliness shown by the generous people of Moffat County.

Online forum users may not realize that many potential employees and employers will canvass forums to learn about a community and give weight in their decision making processes as to whether a particular community will be a healthy environment by creating profiles of cities and towns that are both business and family friendly.

I am a voracious reader of both online and print content and always travel to online forums where either I am going to vacation, conduct long term business or if I am entertaining the idea of moving to an area. Holding to this past practice and before I applied for the position in which I now hold within the community and visited this online forum frequently. While I found a majority of stories and related comments full of valuable, positive information, there were a few postings that caused me heartache as they were filled with personal attacks, which seemed to only be posted by individuals with a personal axe to grind.

During my hiring process, there were numerous personal and professional attacks made on the Daily Press forums about the other finalist. I found it extremely unfortunate that community members would use the online forum to attack this person, as it was extremely unfair to the entire hiring process and to both finalists in general. After watching the forums become increasing hostile and with seemingly little intervention from the online administrators, I finally commented on the forum and stated my displeasure about the nature of the personal attacks, as did the other candidate.

I am pleased the Daily Press has this afternoon announced it will enforce its End User Agreement (EUA). While I am disappointed that it has taken such a long time to come to this decision, I very much value the opportunity an online forum allows the community at large to participate through this at times complex medium.

The Wyman Museum has been such a blessing to the community of Craig and Moffat County, with Lou and Paula always giving back. We look forward to the full hours returning in June, but in the meantime, on the days it is open, lets make a full effort as a community to support this wonderful treasure!

Congratulations everyone. Keep up the great work!

Congratulations! What a great accomplishment. I was so excited to read about the joint venture with the VA and getting special permits to allow our veterans to fully participate. Thank you!

Congratulations and great job everyone! Great to celebrate the victory at hand, but as always, there is another challenge awaiting these well prepared kids and their coaches. Also a big kudos goes out to all the parents, you truly are the backbone that makes this all work.

Thank you for all you do and your willingness to breathe life into history. Yours life is a great story and I thank you for the wonderful example that you are setting for our kids. Truly your journey is that of a curious and intelligent young man who is finding his way; in some ways, traveling full circle, and yet still broadening your life story at the same time. Enjoy the cold Drew, for springtime is just around the corner for those of us who enjoy a bit more of the green part of Mom Nature's cycle! Be well.
