“Coping with Loss on Father's Day” opened the issue with compassion, offering comfort and guidance to readers marking the holiday amid grief — a tender, service-minded lead for June.
“Andrew Jackson's The Hermitage” took readers to the historic Nashville-area home of the seventh president, a day-trip destination steeped in Tennessee history, while “Tennessee: Southern Food Classics” celebrated the regional dishes that define the state's table. The 2016 Montgomery County Fair previewed one of the summer's signature gatherings, and “The Final Curtain” added a reflective note. The health pages offered “9 Screening Tests for Men” — a fitting complement to May's women's-health checklist — along with dental coverage and an important feature, “Understanding the Unknown: Ovarian Cancer.”
The recurring departments round out a June number that pairs tenderness with Tennessee tradition — willing to console a grieving reader on one page and send a family to the fairgrounds on the next, holding the full spectrum of a Clarksville June with characteristic grace.
“Coping with Loss on Father's Day” drew its weight from the writer's own grief. Parents hold a place central enough to our well-being, the feature noted, to earn their own commandment — Exodus 20:12, echoed across Matthew, Mark, Luke and beyond: honor your father and mother. The writer's own father had passed at 73 from kidney failure, after thirty years with type 2 diabetes, eighteen months on dialysis, six days of home hospice, and, twenty years earlier, a quadruple bypass.
