NEW ALBANY â¢Â Jane Goode and Joy McCullough have been part of Sharing at Christmas for many years and the local ladies have always viewed their contribution to the community as a ministry. As well as they can recall, the first year for them began in 1989. Bobbye Ann McCollum asked me to help her, so I started helping her with the food first and then it went from that to I think in 2001 to doing the toys only, Goode said. They were doing toys and food when we started. Â
McCollum was the local Home Economist with the Extension Service and was also a combination of goodwill ambassador, community servant and community missionary as she left an indelible mark on Union County with her tireless work to help her neighbors.
A new children s book,
Champ and Major: First Dogs by Joy McCullough, was released on Tuesday. The book follows the president s first dogs as they live with their dad in the White House. In the pages, Champ, who joined the former vice president s family in 2008, shows three-year-old Major the lay of the land. Get push notifications with news, features and more. + Follow

This Inauguration Day will be unlike any other event of its kind, but the Bay Area still plans to honor the momentous occasion for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.
The ceremony will be held at noon (9 a.m. PST) on Wednesday, Jan. 20, in Washington, D.C., without crowds for the sake of public health and safety. Biden will be sworn in by Chief Justice John Roberts on the Capitol’s West Front, where he is expected to give his inaugural address and conduct a review of military troops. Instead of the traditional parade before throngs of spectators along Pennsylvania Avenue after the ceremony, there will be a much shorter route taken with representatives from every branch of the military acting as escorts.
