Letter to the Editor

Photo choice was painful to Lynn family

To the editor:

I would like to inform you of the tacky photograph that was selected to be on the front page of the Feb. 4 edition of the Southeast Missourian with the article "A coroner's worth." This photo obviously was used without consideration to the family of the deceased. The photo was a painful reminder of the intense pain the Lynn family is still experiencing three months later. Please use discretion when choosing front-page photos.
