A community comes together to bury a beloved neighbor
Story by Alan Johnson
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
When Betty Lou Davis died Jan. 29, her sons had no money to pay for a funeral - not even for a coffin to bury her in.
But Davis, 79, faithful churchgoer in her Athens County community, often told her two boys, "You should trust in the Lord. He will always find a way to get things done."
Turns out she was right.
Thanks to family and friends Davis had a proper funeral yesterday in 106-year-old White’s Chapel Wesleyan Church where she attended. She was laid to rest in a handsome, handmade casket of aged poplar lined with purple cloth and was lowered into a grave dug by her friends and neighbors.

Shooting
So a man went off his medicine and started shooting at his neighbor's houses with a high powered rifle and some hand guns. Luckily no one was hurt.
