Monday, February 06, 2017His announcement cited his previous "hard-fought race" against Allen in 2007, as well as his affection for the district, which spans from Bordentown Township south to Palmyra and east to Mount Laurel and Moorestown."As I receive word of (Allen's) upcoming retirement, I would like to announce my interest in pursuing her seat as state senator of this great district, spanning all towns that I love, many running along the Delaware River, and other great towns to our east," Dennison said in a statement.During the 2007 race, Allen defeated Dennison by a close to 14 percent margin to retain her Senate seat.Dennison said he was proud of his 2007 effort."I think my team and I fared pretty well," he said. "Sen. Allen proved to be a very worthy adversary. In all, I would like to thank her for that very fair race, and I would also like to thank her for her many years of service."A long shot to unseat Allen in 2007, Dennison faces similar odds in winning the Democratic nomination for the seat this year as both of the district's Democratic Assembly members — Herb Conaway and Troy Singleton — have expressed interest in running.Conaway is the more senior of the two, but Singleton has been the more prolific fundraiser and has strong ties to some key trade unions.New Jersey Building and Construction Trades Council President William Mullen and the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 825 have endorsed Singleto...
Monday, January 09, 2017She had a heart the size of a school bus, and the people she interviewed all knew it.”“Dot’s family life was so complicated,” says longtime friend and former Observer colleague Pat Borden Gubbins. “I think the paper was her refuge.”But Jackson and Observer editors came to an impasse over job responsibilities in 1982, and Jackson was fired. (Jackson later told former Observer staffer Jeri Fischer Krentz that the dispute was partly her fault.) Outraged readers filled one Observer Forum.“I hate to see Dot Jackson go because she writes like I talk,” wrote one reader, “and she makes her people sound like people I know. Over the years, she has come to seem like another dear next-door neighbor. May you have dust under your refrigerator, sir!”With a collapsing marriage, Jackson sold her house on Willow Oak Road, moved to South Carolina and hired on at the Greenville (S.C.) News-Piedmont and later the Easley Progress.“Dot could get into some of the most complex fixes of anybody I ever knew,” said long-time friend and former Observer colleague Jerry Bledsoe. “But she always wriggled out giggling. I always hoped somebody would record Dot’s giggle and post it online so anybody in need of heartening could click and find the relief and joy that giggle gave to so many.”Once in a while, Jackson’s giggle failed even her.In 1989, her middle child, Tom Jackson, died while a student at Western Carolina University. Ten months later, a granddaughter died.It was time for a new direction.In 2000, Jackson and three friends, all board members of the S.C. Academy of Authors, began searching for a possible retreat, a gathering place for writers and artists to work and talk about their craft.The group settled on a few overgrown acres with a dilapidated 200-year-old house and a view of Table Rock Mountain. Jackson had known the spot since childhood. She moved into a trailer on the premises and began writing grant proposals to restore the house and establish the Birchwood Center, which at Jackson’s death had long been showcasing the region’s writers at its annual Book and Author Fair.During her Observer years, Jackson had begun a novel that, after many incarnations, was selected as the 2006 winner of the Novello Prize, by the Novello Festival Press of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Public Library. “Refuge,” set in 1929, is the story of Charleston’s Mary Seneca Steele and her flight to freedom, family and love in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It won the 2006 Weatherford Award and the Appalachian Book of the Year Award. In 2008, John F. Blair of Winston-Salem brought out “Refuge” in paperback.Award-winning Appalachian State novelist Ron Rash called Jackson’s novel “a beautifully rendered portrait of a lost time and place.”That place was always working its way into Jackson’s prose.In 1982, about a year before she left the Observer, Jackson wrote about the funeral of a cousin in Central, S.C.“We come ... from all those far-flung places where we live and sometimes don’t belong. Whoever we are, in those other lives, we are Totsie and Teeny and Red and Bud and Bitsy, when we fall upon each other’s necks in consolation.”And as they gathered in the cemetery, she noted: “One cannot walk but to walk upon our folks. Nature is nearly always kind to us, though we tend to die in winter.”And she concludes:“And it was warm for us, this time, a beautiful false spring, rustling in the dry leaves of the church yard. The lilac bushes on Bird’s grave were showing clumps of tiny purple buds.“Up the road toward Six Mile, the pastures greened on that old land where Aunt Bird and her daughters had been raised. The surface things change. Old houses burn and crumble; new ones rise, sometimes in designs that look freakish (to me) on that landscape…”“But we do not live with that; we live with what it used to be. It is our land, though we come to it only to put another of us down.”...

The other dairies are Borden’s, Producers, Purity and Woodbury.At some point Ideal Dairy apparently merged with Woodbury Dairy, although the dates are unclear. A 1977 Bee story about the Producers’ Dairy acquisition of Woodbury Ideal Dairy said that business was 40 years old, putting its beginning in 1937.Q: I would like to know more about drive-thru mini marts in Fresno. I remember one on Fresno and Ashlan and another on Barstow near Fresno. I rode my bike to go and buy snacks.Alan Ball, FresnoA: Wilson’s Lollipop Dairy Drive In at 4180 Fresno St. at the southeast corner with Ashlan Avenue was opened by Robin C. and Gladys Wilson in about 1960, according to Fresno city directories.A Fresno Bee story about an attempted holdup at the store in 1968 lists the name as Lollipop Ranch. Wilson, then 62, told police “two boys about 17 years old drove into the place and their pickup truck bumped a display. A discussion developed over the incident.” Wilson said one of the boys then got out of the truck.“The youth displayed a revolver tucked in his waistband and told Wilson, ‘Give me the money,’ ” the story said. Wilson told the boy, “I’m not going to give it to you.”“At about that time another customer showed up and the youth got into the truck and drove off,” the story said.The 1973 city directory lists the store as Woodbury’s Lollipop and the store was vacant by 1974.The Roselane Dairy Drive In was opened at 485 E. Barstow Ave. east of Fresno Street by Larry Raven in about 1966, city directories show. By 1969 it was listed as R Pantry Drive-in Dairy.By 1972 the store was Metro Markets but by later that year it was Zip N Go Market.
