To the editor:

I know there was a lot of controversy around the building of Key Bank and Walgreens.

Years ago, I was unhappy about Safeway and Rite-Aid too, but today I shop at both.

I’ve also become a regular at Walgreens because their employees are always helpful and kind. My two grandchildren who have autism are welcomed from the moment they walk in the door. There’s never a line at the pharmacy, and I think folks who have challenges walking across crowded parking lots would be delighted with their drive-up window.
