   Coastal Med Tech, a Maine-owned company headquartered in Ellsworth, also serves the area. I live in northern Oxford County and have been very happy with their service. I have an oxygen concentrator and a BIPAP machine from them, and they keep me supplied with supplies. I am 100 percent physically disabled and this company, along with a personal support specialist from Home Care for Maine, are the chief reasons I can stay in my home with Medicare and a supplemental policy from Aetna through my former job. My medical bills are still hefty, but both companies try to keep their prices reasonable. And the state of Maine has been good to me on the home health aide, who is a hard worker and earns every penny. Her fill-in is also a fine worker. God bless them and supervisor Nancy.

   Sadly this is not uncommon, especially in small volunteer deparments. I don't know why. It's stupid and did no one any favors. It sounds as if one house especially provided foster kids a home. To quote the title of one of Great Aunt Alice Mary Kimball's poems, "God I Pity Them Children." Read in context

   E-books should be priced to reflect the decreased cost of resources, transportation, etc., but no lower. An author, and I know a couple, deserves to earn a living. Read in context

   As a clergyman myself, I'm always sorry to see a historic church close, but it's the reality of the times with declining membership and rising maintenance and heating costs. I wish the Rev. Dr. Ami Sawtelle, whom I know as a veterinarian and Army officer, the best in her pastorship of the Methodist Church in Livermore Falls. Read in context
