In today’s paper starting on Page 14 you’ll find a list of Sabine Parish residents owed money by the state of Louisiana.

The state currently has millions of dollars it wants to return to its rightful owners, but first it has to locate those to whom money is owed, according to State Treasurer John M. Schroder Sr.

The list in today’s paper shows Sabine Parish residents who have unclaimed property of various types on record in the state Treasurer’s office. Businesses from all over the country are required by law to report unclaimed property to the Treasury each year. Sometimes, the address the company has on record is no longer correct. Funds may be in the form of cash, stocks, bonds, securities, insurance benefits or other. The assets are reported in the name and last known address of the owner(s).

Quad C, located at 326 Fisher Road (next to Pizza Hut), hosted an elaborate open house on Friday, October 4 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Executive Director of the Sabine Parish Chamber Shanna Gaspard was on hand to conduct the ribbon-cutting, which was attended by several Chamber members.

Physical Therapist and DPT Kearstin Cooley was on hand to greet those attending and talk with prospective clients.

Ian Goff will arrive in Many, on Friday, October 25 as part of his 2,000-mile bicycle ride across the United States.

His journey began at Niagara Falls, New York, on the Canadian border October 6, and he plans to arrive at the Mexican border in Del Rio, Texas on November 2.

The reason he has made this personal challenge a public event—to help remember and restore the victims of the shooting which occurred at Sutherland Springs Baptist Church nearly two years ago --is as impressive as his 28-day, 2,000-mile journey. With his bicycle trek across the nation, Goff has chosen to honor and remember the individuals who lost their lives in the deadliest mass shooting in the history of Texas.
