🚨 TRIBAL VOICES NEEDED

The U.S. Census Bureau has proposed changes to the 2030 Census that would remove questions about race and ethnicity from the decennial Census questionnaire.

Accurate representation of Native American, Indigenous, and Alaska Native people in federal data matters. These changes are proposed and haven't been finalized, and now is the time for Native voices and Tribal perspectives to be heard.

From Ray Jr.

First I would like to Thank all of our friends and Family that have reached out to give their love and support !!!
Lord knows how much my family and I appreciate it.
As most of you know that my father asked that we not have any type of Funeral or showing. We promised him that we would abide by his wishes

What he did ask of us. He said we could have a Celebration of LIFE.
This is not to be a sad event. He wanted us to celebrate our Family
And his Life We can all show our Love and respect for my Dad.
I am asking for our friends and Family to please attend (October 10th)
Dress in Browns attire. Share with us any and all experiences you have had with my dad.
I even if you lost contact with my dad or the family, I encourage you to attend

The theme is a combination of the Browns and Casino (other than his family). Two things he really loved
Feel free to share this
I want dad to see how many ppl came to help Celebrate his Life and all that he did for each of us

Thanks again
Ray

Saturday, September 12, Prime Focus Inc. is hosting a FREE Vision Day for children ages 5–17 at Motorsure America in Euclid.

This is more than a quick screening.

Families may receive:

Free vision screening

Eye exam if further evaluation is needed

Free prescription glasses if prescribed

Referrals for follow-up care

Vision resources and next-step guidance

Not every child will need glasses — but every child deserves the opportunity to see clearly.

Priority is given to children ages 5–17 who are verbal and able to follow simple instructions.

Appointments are strongly encouraged, and limited walk-ins will be accepted only if time permits.

If you have been putting off getting your child’s vision checked, this is the time.

Register today before the remaining appointments are gone.

Saturday, September 12, 2026
