Dear Editor: Can a few hours change a life? Absolutely! Have you ever wanted to give back to the community but didn’t know how? So did I.

Dear Editor: I just read John Bredin’s screed to Steve Nicola. Wow, talk about a mouthful. Mr. Bredin devoted a good portion of his letter to the virtues of nannies and nanny states, a good time considering Mother’s Day has just passed.

Dear Editor: In his May 9 letter to the editor, John Bredin makes many claims and assertions that are so outrageous it’s difficult to know where to begin to set the record straight.

Dear Editor: My name is Amanda and I live in Hudson County. I was wondering if by any chance you were aware that May is Stroke Awareness Month! With that said did you know that babies, infants and children have strokes too. Well I for one didn’t until my daughter was diagnosed in June of …
Dear Editor: My name is Blair Ridder and I am a neophyte in local politics. Recently I made the internal decision to get more involved in the community that my wife and I have decided to settle our lives in. With a fresh set of eyes and ignorant bliss towards the political landscape of Hoboken …

Dear Editor: I thank the Hoboken Police Department and the Soccer Learning Center for organizing the Lt. Alan Beck Memorial Soccer Tournament on Sunday, April 18th.

Dear Editor: The Hoboken Housing Authority’s “Family & Friends” Health Fair was a tremendous success, and it couldn’t have happened without the help and support of a broad array of community leaders who came together for a good cause.
