has been publishing touching tributes for the thousands of Canadians who have died of COVID-19.
Your tributes put a face to some of the more than 25,000 Canadians who have died of COVID-19 (“They Were Loved,” Coronavirus, July 2021).

My disabled brother was misdiagnosed with an eye infection and was nearly blind when my sister got him to a specialist.

The Salem community got a first look at the new Charter Street Cemetery Welcome Center after Mayor Kim Driscoll cut a red ribbon with oversize scissors before a gathered crowd outside the Samuel Pickman House on Wednesday afternoon. We re going to cut the ribbon on - for us - what s a really historic and important day - we ve been making a number of investments in the Charter Street Cemetery, trying to make sure that we re being good stewards of that historic space, the mayor, the Pickman House s wooden front door to her back, told the day’s crowd. “And through a renewed partnership with the Peabody Essex Museum, we re going to be able to have this building where we can welcome people who are visiting the cemetery, the [Salem Witch Trials] Tercentenary Memorial, or frankly, the city at all, but primarily geared towards these spaces.
