DOUG O: One to lead us
As a lifelong resident, I celebrate this community and the many servants who dedicate their time and talents to shape its future. Doug Okuniewicz has been fully engaged in our community for many, many years as a ...
VIRUS: Pay now or…
Having trouble understanding COVID-19? Think about watching a tall tree being cut. At first you hardly see it move. But that’s the time to take cover, because in seconds that tree will come at you a hundred miles...
HOMELESS: ‘Warrior’ misinformed
There seems to be a misconception that Kootenai County has closed its homeless shelters.
GRAMER: Column right on
Each day I read the Coeur d’Alene Press. I recognize it is a community newspaper which provides primarily information on our community. The letters to the editor from local people sometimes are uplifting and othe...

In the name of safety, our current city administration has ordered the closure of public places such as restaurants without any cause other than political correctness. I had hoped that North Idaho leadership (Hay...
TRUMP: A citizen’s request

ESSENTIAL: Bullets and booze? Really?
I applaud Governor Little’s courage and wisdom for issuing a stay-home order to flatten the curve and save lives.
