A rose of appreciation in our Sunday paper to Golden Triangle public servants who stepped down or were voted out in 2021 had a glaring omission, which we regret. While we are sure there are other public officials we also failed to name, former Columbus Chief Operations Officer David Armstrong — who held that position for nearly 15 years — should certainly have been named. We wish him well!
