J. Scott Albrecht surprised both Jefferson Hills Council and staff members, as well as those in the chamber, on Monday night, May 14, by reading a letter of resignation during the general business. Citing a work load from his occupation, Albrecht said that he could no longer justify taking the time needed to best fulfill the obligations of a councilman. One by one, the other members expressed their gratitude for his service, his friendship, his talent and contributions to the community the past two years.

Being in the right place at the right time can have the right results — at least that’s what Kenneth E. Martin, 49, of Monessen believes. An over-the-road truck driver, Martin typically is only home four to six days per month. On Monday, May 30, 2011 at approximately 2:30 a.m., he was awakened and could not move. Because it was Memorial Day weekend, he was sleeping comfortably in his own bed. He woke up his wife, Barb, who immediately called an ambulance.

Have you ever wondered where a writer gets his ideas, how he develops them, and what process he goes through to have his work published? To answer these questions and more, plan to attend the “Meet the Authors” event being presented at the Rostraver Public Library on Saturday, May 12, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet these published writers, ask them questions, purchase their books, and have the books signed by the authors.
