It really does Cletis! My hometown lost their elementary school, a year or two after that the bank closed and now with all of the post offices closing who knows if we'll still have one of those! It's horrible. Everyone used to move there because we had an awesome elementary school but now my Dad said that he's never seen so many houses up for sale. We're slowly turning into a ghost down and it's really sad :(
