SHOCKED BY DESTRUCTION

I have read many things in this paper over the years, but nothing got my attention like the story of vandals destroying Blanche Braswell's ``dollhouse.'' The people who did that should serve time and replace the destroyed items.

My hat goes off to an 88-year-old woman who takes such a setback with a positive attitude.
