At every possible opportunity, I try to let The Oregonian know HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE their mail delivery option for me here in Hillsboro.   My fondest memory of my own mother back in Illinois is of her finding her favorite chair after her morning homemaking duties were complete and settling in for a long session with The Chicago Tribune.   Now, after a lifetime of newpaper addiction and even more so now that I have reached senior age myself, I continue to cherish my daily time with the Oregonian.  It keeps me in touch with the world, the state, my community, and Life itself, and is a virtual necessity for me.  Surely it is a blessed lifeline for many Seniors. 

Thanks for the appropro topic.   Love you all,      ~Joyce in Hillsboro
