Links provided for top Turner Report/Inside Joplin posts for the week

For the past several months, Turner Report readers have been fortunate to have weekly columns from Kim Frencken and Nancy Hughes and the readership of those columns has increased every week.

Last week, Kim broke into the top 10 for the week and today, Nancy makes her debut, at number two, with a column inspired by the recent death of Lamar Elementary School teacher Jordan Cantrell (pictured).

Jordan Cantrell's death and the response to it by the Lamar R-1 School District topped this week's Inside Joplin posts. That list also includes the obituary of 17-year-old Joplin High School student Aidan Leas, which I accidentally posted in Inside Joplin instead of Inside Joplin Obituaries
