PUTNEY — Sending love and condolences to Joyce Marcel [“The death of Rose Kagan,” Voices, Jan. 4]. I always loved reading her essays about her mother, Rose, in the paper and in her book, A Thousand Words or Less.

During one of President Trump's State of the Union addresses, he boldly stated that “America will never be a communist country.” This statement speaks volumes to everyday patriots - Americans whose grandfathers, fathers, sons, and daughters have fought in certain wars against communism around the...
