Services set for column writer

Kenny Clemons, 84, passed away Sunday, January 10 at the Margaret Mary Hospital in Batesville. He was known to many throughout our readership for his writing: Splinters, which was a sports column and In and Around Ripley County, which was a variety of subjects about local people. When you saw Kenny, he would always ask, “What do you know?” That would lead to him having some good information for his column.
