Sticking to charity

 When the going gets tough, the tough keep going, or at least that's what 93-year-old retired Air Force Colonel John Hobson does. In 2020, he busied himself by handcrafting and selling nearly 100 walking sticks, and donating proceeds to a local Ohio charity group, the Xenia Area Fish Food Pantry. 


"He's just a sweet man who gives a darn about other folks who don't have (anything)," says his son Mark Hobson. To sell his wares, Hobson set up a roadside stand in his front yard. The price was beyond reasonable -- $3.00 each, or a donation to the food pantry.
