How Best to Honor the Sons and Daughters of Central Virginia

Lynchburg News & Advance
June 18, 2007

While the thought of “Jerry Falwell Parkway” running through the LU campus seems fittingly appropriate, it’s not a road we should travel down.

There are many sons and daughters of this region who accomplished much in their lives and who deserve recognition: the Rev. Haywood Robinson, George Stewart, Ron Dolan and Bert Schewel immediately come to mind.

How should their lives, and others, be recognized and remembered?

Campbell county unanimously approved it. Lynchburg's approval is up next.

[Fumblerooskies]

They asked for a comment. Mr. F. Ruski weighed in.

[Libertine]

So did Lee Bertine.

So, basically, their argument against having a Jerry Falwell Parkway is that it leaves out people not named Jerry Falwell. That's just asinine. And transparent.

...naming that part of the road for him as it passes the monogram.

You had to bring up the monogram, didn't you, Fumble?

[PAmedic]

I vote for removing ALL the Martin Luther King Blvds out there because they don't include George Washington or Abraham Lincoln

[SuperJon]

Racist jerk.

Someone needs to make that point and REALLY watch the fur fly.

[ATrain]

I nominate R. Fumble to make that point...I would, but I can't think of anything to get creative with A-Train

[SuperJon]

I got it.

[PAmedic]

A. Treighyne

[SuperJon]

No. I'm doing it.

[PAmedic]

I'm betting there were a few posts that haven't shown up yet

[SuperJon]

Cause mine hasn't shown up yet. I think they screen them.

[Fumblerooskies]

Well done...and well stated. Time for the fur to fly.

[ATrain]

Guess I'll stay out of this one...for now

[Knucklehead]

I vote to name the section Falwell Parkway and paint the road with a "mini-monogram" every 100 yards. How about that!

Aye...of course, that idea does have me thinking...other schools (W&M, VT, UVA) have their logos painted on streets through campus...why shouldn't we do something like that?

[LUconn]

because ours has to be resurfaced twice a year?

The only road on main campus I've seen re-surfaced is the road leading out to the back circle exit to 460.
