Now that the new By-Pass is open, we have the added worry of our children crossing a street with cars constantly whizzing by at 50 and 60 miles per hour. If you could have someone to help them cross, as you suggested, it would ease our minds- greatly and we would be ever" in �rour debit. _ We will appreciate anything you can do for us.
