Editor
State Representative Cleo Duncan announced
she will not seek a 9th term in the Indiana
General Assembly Monday morning at 8:30
a.m. in the lobby of the Ripley County
Courthouse, Versailles.
Those gathered for the announcement heard
the catch in Duncan’s voice as she
made the announcement. She has served
since 1994 and said she is “not crawling
into the woodwork” by any means,
but intends to remain active helping the
area she has served and the state she
loves in a non-elected way.

Local volunteer
and friend to many in the Osgood area,
Edna Taylor, 77, was recently diagnosed
with leukemia. She was in a very advanced
state when the diagnosis was made
and was immediately hospitalized for
several weeks of intense treatments.
Taylor has returned home for a short
period of time, but will undergo treatments
by traveling back and forth to an
Indianapolis hospital, according to
her son, Mike. He noted, “we’re
over the biggest hump,” as he
and his brother, Jerry, take turns
helping out with her medical transportation
and care.
Known in the Osgood area as a loving,
kind volunteer, her good friend, Georgia
Adkinson described her as “an
angel here on earth.”

Lena
Dramann celebrates 100 years

Wanda

Content with the life
she has lived, Lena Dramann said there’s
only one wish she didn’t fulfill in her
100 years. “I wanted to be a nurse,”
she told the Osgood Journal in an interview
about her upcoming birthday on November 8 when
she will have lived a century.
Simply put, she said her folks couldn’t
afford for her to go to nursing school. So as
many girls of her generation, she completed
“common” school - which was eight
grades and then went to work.
