The Commonwealth Journal has cause to celebrate this week after staff learned the newspaper took Second Place in its category for General Excellence at the annual Kentucky Press Association’s contest.

Editor Jeff Neal described learning of the paper’s accomplishments after what has been an emotional week for the staff.
“I am very proud of the Commonwealth Journal staff. It’s dedicated to bringing its readers the best coverage of local news in the state,” Neal said. “It’s fitting that on the week our humble reporter, Bill Mardis, left us, that the CJ placed second in General Excellence and won several awards in the KPA contest. I know Bill would be proud.” ....

It was an honor to work with the legendary Bill Mardis in the Commonwealth Journal s newsroom, but it was a greater honor to call the Humble Reporter my friend.
When I first learned that the former, longtime editor of the newspaper would be making a comeback as Editor Emeritus, I was a bit intimidated. As it turned out, the man who was once known as hard-nosed and maybe even a bit gruff actually turned out to be a kind gentleman who carried on delightful conversations and who showed us all what being a humble reporter truly meant. ....
