Dear Editor, It had been four months now since the Oxford High School shooting. Almost $2,000,000 has been raised by caring onlookers, for distribution to victims and their families. People harmed should always be our first concern. However, now is time to especially recognize the four who left us permanently as a result of this […]
Dear Editor, This is in response to the article last week on the “Crumbley’s week in court”. I was watching golf on Saturday and my wife decided to share the information on what The Leader reported, which is good reporting and need to know if you desire, about what the alleged Oxford school shooter is […]
Dear Editor, I know Don Rush’s column on community newspapers was published in a Janurary edition, but I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU! I hope the Oxford Leader is active well into the future and I will always subscribe to it. May God continue to […]

Dear Editor, As if we aren’t paying enough already in property taxes, the Michigan Senate under Republican leadership may soon be voting on SB-653, the “History Museum Authorities Act.” We already pay for the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Detroit Zoo.

Dear Editor, Just wanted to give a HUGE shout out to the OXFORD FIRE DEPARTMENT, OAKLAND COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE, TIM HORTON’S AND DTE for their quick and compassionate response to my emergency on Sunday, January 30. Our Purdy Lane barn burned down in the early morning hours and two DTE line men going to work […]
Dear Editor, Good afternoon. I heard a small plane over my house for quite a while this morning. When I opened my FlightRadar24 app (my son is a pilot), I saw this image from the pilot’s flight. Brought a tear to my eye. You are more than welcome to use my photo. Our community needs […]
Dear Editor, Oxford Strong. We’ve seen this phrase a lot the last couple of years… Adorning front yards, in the windows of shops and restaurants downtown, on tee shirts and stickers. Since the tragedy at Oxford High School on November 30, 2021 we’ve been inundated with messages of Oxford Strong. But what does it even […]

Hot delicious meals were donated so our local seniors could not only have a nutritious meal on the holidays but also be greeted by a […]
