To the editor: I bet you all are tired of having old geezers telling you what you should or should not be doing. However, this should be important to all of us and our children’s children. I live in a small neighborhood out in Goldstream. For many years, I have been one of the few people around who plant an insanely ridiculous number of flowers and a few veggies.

After a dozen years of trying to save our “grand old lady of theater,” the Coconut Grove Playhouse is coming down. Ninety-eight years of history will soon be rubbish and debris. The space where such stage and screen icons as Maureen Stapleton, Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Eve Arden, Tallulah Bankhead, Carol Channing, Liza Minnelli, Linda Lavin, Bea Arthur, George C. Scott, Colleen Dewhurst, Ethel Merman, Denzel Washington, David Letterman and so many more performed will be a memory.

Nathan told their 4-year-old daughter Seraphine that he planned to kill Mary.

The killing of a mentally ill West Kendall man by a Miami-Dade police officer — as his horrified mother watched him bleed out on her kitchen floor — has elicited a pledge of reform by county leaders eager to lessen the danger of encounters between police and people in crisis.
