Page Jackson Sun Tuesday, Jan. 19, 1999 Giuliani: Garbage not others' burden The Associated Press NEW YORK Mayor Rudolph Giuliani on Monday softened his assertion that other states should take New York City's garbage because their residents enjoy the city's cultural and business worlds. "I never said they were obligated to do it. We pay them for it, this is a business. This isn't a question of obligation," Giuliani told reporters.
'His remarks were a retreat from controversial statements last week, when he said since out-of-towners benefit from spending time in New York, there is a "reciprocal relationship" under which their home states should accept New York trash. His remarks inflamed lawmakers in states like Virginia, where New York ships thousands of tons of waste for disposal. A top aide said the mayor was not shifting his position. Cristyne Lategano, Giuliani's communications director, said the mayor's earlier statements had been misconstrued in the media and by Virginia politicians, and she emphasized Giuliani never used the word "obligation" in characterizing New York's relationship with other states: Last week, Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore said he wanted to curb the dumping of out-of-state trash in Virginia, and ban barges from moving trash on state waterways.
He was reacting to word that Waste Management a trash-disposal company, wants to dump an additional 4,000 tons of New York City trash in Virginia every day.

Lawrence-Sorensen Funeral Home 424-2424 In Loving Memory Of Carl Perkins After many days of dark, gloomy clouds lurking overhead the clouds parted on January 19, 1998 to reveal the sun shining in the blue sky. The fight for him was over and his journey into eternity had begun. None of us will ever be the same again. We each grieve in our own way praying that with each day that passes the pain will become less. We miss his laughter the way only he could tell a joke.
We miss his gentle words of wisdom always knowing exactly what needed to be said. We miss his thoughtfulness always making the day a little sweeter. And, we miss his strength always sharing our heavy loads. And, as each day does pass, we realize more and more there is no one who can fill his Blue Suede Shoes. There is nothing easy about death.
There is no one who has not experienced the loss of a loved one. We were not singled out by God to be the only family to experience such painstaking grief. We are not alone. God didn't give us a choice, but he did give us strength to make it this far. The comfort of his love He sent through you.
We deeply appreciate all you have done. We thank you, too, for loving him sO much. He truly loved You. He always felt it a privilege to live in Jackson, Tennessee. Today as he looks down we know he still smiles with pride.
