Good morning, Portage County. Beneath the weathered gravestones of our local cemeteries lie stories waiting to be uncovered, and genealogy enthusiasts will have their chance to learn these secrets at an upcoming free presentation on May 3. Mary Jamba's "Epitaphs & Icons" workshop promises to reveal how those silent stone markers can speak volumes about our shared history—perfectly timed as spring brings renewed access to these outdoor historical archives.
While some explore the past, others are building the future right in our backyard. Cleveland-based Asclepii is preparing to launch its breakthrough wound care device, Poseidon, representing a significant milestone for regional healthcare innovation. On a less uplifting note, the futuristic Tesla Cybertruck that's been turning heads around town recently became a target for vandals outside a Solon deli—proving that even cutting-edge technology isn't immune to old-fashioned mischief.
