Dave Marks, 63 of Cambridge
Dave Marks left his earthly home to live eternally with our Heavenly Father on December 14, 2020. He was born on December 16, 1956 in Cambridge, Ohio. Dave was always a kind, loving, thoughtful husband even when he was not feeling his best. He will be greatly missed by his wife of 25 years, Lynn (Markley/Dragosin) Marks. Dave could not have been a more loving and helpful Father to his daughter, Angie (Joshua) Moore, whom he was so proud of, and was the best Pappy ever to his adored grandchildren, Blake and Lilyan. He was a devoted son and brother who kept his Mom, Doris (Smith) Marks, and his sister, Linda (Robert) Frye, close at heart despite the miles between them. Dave was preceded in death by his Father, whom he is now joyfully reunited with, Robert (Bob) Marks.

In a society that celebrates arrogance and elevates the unworthy, itâs easy to lose track of Anna Young.
Anna quietly works miracles in dark corners few choose to visit. She seeks no attention and accepts no credit. The glory goes to God. She thanks Him for the work.
For 50 years, Anna has shared her experience, strength and hope with inmates at Lackawanna County Prison. At 90, she has taught generations of women how to rebuild their lives with dignity, faith and grace. She trusts the Almighty to decide when itâs time to retire.

The mural is painted on the side of a nondescript building on the Near East Side, and it includes portraits of Black jazz musician Duke Ellington and Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, with larger portraits of Martin Luther King Jr. and Abraham Lincoln. Welcome to Bronzeville, the message on the mural says. In diversity, there is beauty and there is strength, quoting renowned Black poet Maya Angelou.
But in diversity, some viewers have focused on the outsized visage of Lincoln and wonder why he occupies such a prominent place in a historically Black neighborhood.
The mural has been both lauded and criticized on social media, and some believe that during a turbulent year of racial reckoning after the death of George Floyd while in Minneapolis police custody in May, Lincoln s placement comes across as tone-deaf at the least.
