Letter: Appreciating service

Three of the most dreaded words in the English language are “you’ve got cancer.”  Our Congressional representative, Jim Hagedorn, apparently heard those awful words a year ago.

There are certain things which should transcend politics. Battling a serious illness certainly falls into that category. While it sounds like Rep. Hagedorn is making great progress in this fight (and judging from the full schedule he keeps), I do hope that everyone, regardless of political persuasion or political affiliation will join together in praying for his complete recovery.
