My wife and I normally like to eat at one of the many excellent restaurants in our neighborhood.

How sad, in just over 50 years, we have gone from our nation’s most famous civil rights icon dreaming that his children “will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character” to the African-American mayor of the third largest city in America determining access …

Yes, a local dog park is desired, but please do not put a dog park at the south end of Ridge Park and proceed to destroy one of the last natural parkways in the city.

As our world works to return to “normal,” I am reminded—every day—that the Crisis Center for South Suburbia would never have survived the past 14 months without the incredible generosity and support of the community.

Thank you, 19th Ward Ald. Matt O’Shea and 19th Ward volunteers for the second vaccine clinic at Mt. Greenwood Park.

Dear goodly people of the thereabouts of Beverly, I pray this finds you in good health, wealth and company during this fortuitous spring season.

On Saturday, May 8, nurse authors of the recently published “Through Our Eyes” participated in a book signing along Western Avenue to highlight Nurses Week 2021.

As executive director of Garden Center Services, I can say that this challenging past year of the pandemic has been especially stressful for community-based agencies like ours that provide residential support to adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities.

“Beat 123 to 911 Center, alleged perpetrator who just shot four victims surprisingly did not volunteer to be arrested upon my arrival, instead opted to flee. Can you contact my supervisor and secure a Foot Chase Authorization number? Will stand by for reply.”

I rarely respond to articles, but your editorial (April 28) “Good to have Burke on the job,” I had to respond.

Hate has no home in the 19th Ward, and apparently, neither does tolerance, especially from some of those who yell the loudest about being “tolerant.”

The people who responded to Corinne Rose’s letter (April 14) about the sign at McNally’s bar seem to have missed the point about the concerns that have been raised.

I would first like to respond to the letter to the editor (April 14) from Corinne Rose.

In Corinne Rose’s letter to the editor (April 14), she expressed her opinion of what she viewed as divisive language used on the sign outside of McNally’s bar.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”

Apparently, McNally’s bar has somehow provoked outrage among the “woke” once again, as shown by the letter to the editor (April 14) from Corinne Rose.

This is in response to the letter to the editor from Corinne Rose on April 14.

I read state Rep. Fran Hurley’s comments published in your Legislative Briefs on April 7.

As a former member of the management team at the Maple/Morgan Park Community Food Pantry, I would like to thank 19th Ward Ald. Matt O’Shea and Food Pantry Executive Director Karen Overstreet for the food drive they combined to run on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17.

Our “Village in the City” is one of the most diverse areas in Chicago and has been for generations.

Thanks for the Be Like Bob Day article (March 31) about Bob Berk and students at Christ the King Elementary School.

Thank you to the Beverly Arts Center for the exciting pirate experience at the Bubbie’s Club, which included the grandchildren, on Saturday, March 27.

The independent economy in Illinois has always been beneficial to drivers, allowing us to create our own schedule and supplement our income on demand.

Thank you for sharing the wonderful photo of the hawk perched on the stone column near the 91st Street Metra train station in North Beverly!

Nearly a year into the coronavirus pandemic shutting down the United States, it’s time for our leaders in Washington, D.C., to put aside partisan bickering and do something to help.

Recently, I was almost in a multi-car collision.

I was not enthused that more police cameras will be installed in our neighborhood.

We got our vaccines! Thank you, Mr. Pfizer, Mr. Pres, Mr. Gov, Ms. Advocate Pediatric Nurse Suzanne and the thousands of people in between.

For a person who has suffered a life-altering injury, incurred serious medical expenses or lost a loved one who was the family breadwinner, their suffering is often compounded by immoral legal delay tactics employed by businesses and insurers.

Republicans call themselves the “law and order” party, but 45 percent of GOP voters still support the MAGA seditionists who tried to overturn an election.

In the middle of the night on Monday, Jan. 25, the city of Chicago canceled scheduled COVID-19 vaccinations for my wife and me at Daley College.

The author of a letter to the editor (Jan. 20) made some interesting claims about what he sees as the media’s response to the coup attempt that took place on Jan. 6

At a time when Illinois lawmakers should be supporting healthcare heroes who are working tirelessly during the COVID-19 pandemic, we instead receive unwelcome new legislation that will drive up the costs of practicing medicine in Illinois and send more physicians packing to move to a more we…

I was disgusted to learn that there were many military and law enforcement (active and retired) members who took part in the coup on Jan. 6.

Call me old-fashioned, but I was raised to believe that riots are a bad thing.

The Democrats control the presidency, the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House. The voters have chosen, and that reflects polling that shows that Americans support core Democrat positions.

This is my farewell to Beverly Hills/Morgan Park.

Why are businesses on Western Avenue, 95th Street and 111th Street blatantly operating in violation of city and state restrictions?

I enjoyed and agreed with Joe Bird’s letter (Dec. 30) in The Beverly Review with regard to complaints against police officers.

In a recent report, the Office of the Inspector General for Chicago (OIG) revealed that when complainants refuse to sign a sworn affidavit confirming the truth of their allegations against a police officer, the investigating agency, either the Chicago Police Department (CPD) or the Civilian …

I was president of the Morgan Park Action Council from 1989 to 1997.

A huge thank you to the Beverly Improvement Association (BIA) for sponsoring its decorating contest in North Beverly and to The Beverly Review for publishing (Dec. 16) “BIA honors local families for Christmas decorations.”
