Bouquet – From Bob Furno, Iron Mountain: Thank you, Raph Rittenhouse, for a job well done as Iron Mountain School District superintendent under difficult and trying circumstances for you and your family. To your credit, you have handled the adversity with class with malice towards none.

You have maintained your focus on the student, the best interests of the district and leave a large footprint for those who will follow you.

Mary Beth and I wish you and your family all the best. God bless.

Niagara historical group appreciated coverage

Bouquet – From Karen Klenke, Niagara, Wis.: Can’t say thank you enough to The Daily News and your creative staff for supporting the Niagara Area Historical Society.

Newspapers give strength to events and projects in our communities, so we are taking the time to say thank you for that. Our small group at the Niagara museum have felt the response from stories and photos you have done for us — so again, we say thank you for that.
