    A note for those of you who have ever seen the old Dodd Funeral Home in Paris Crossing, it is in very sad shape. It was built by Samuel Wright in 1891 as his residence and purchased by the Dodd family, then used as the Funeral Home. The last time I was by there it was falling down, one turret has actually fallen off and upstairs windows are broken. I spoke to some neighbors one of whom related there is a racoon living in the upper floor. It is a beautiful and historic building, I am hoping it can be saved before it is too late. As of the winter of 2012, there is very little hope the home can be repaired, I fear this winter will be its last.
