Ron Kemp and his wife Nancy have published the Clay County Democrat since 1977. They are excited about the new possibilities with the website and the opportunity to give a daily approach to "late-breaking" events in a weekly newspaper operation. Kemp has spent his entire career in the newspaper business and served as president of the Arkansas Press Association in 1993. The Kemps' daughter, Ashley Wimberley, has continued the family tradition, currently serving as director of marketing at the APA office in Little Rock.

Larry stopped by Harps in Rector on Wednesday night to say hi on his way through. He left a couple of his company caps as souvenirs.
His loyal canine friend "Mister" was with him, as he is on all his trips.
We have invited Larry to join us for the annual chamber banquet in April to be honored for his help to our community.
What a great guy!!
