LETTERS To the Editor Endorses Nyssa Plan Of Building Village For Senior Citizens March 11, 1966 To the Journal Editor: While reading my copy of the March 3 Journal. 1 learned of the plans being made to set up a Vil- lage for Senior Citizens. This sounds like a wonderful plan for many reasons. First, it will give the elderly citizens a chance to live among neighbors of their own generation, and they can talk over the early days. I also noted that those working on this plan are some of the best Nyssa businessmen. And if this proposal can become reality, these men will see that it is done. The village will also give the senior citizens better and more comfortable homes. It will also help to remove some of the small er homes from valuable land, giv ing room for more modern and larger residences which will im prove the city.
