IN THE WEEK’S FREEMAN’S JOURNAL

Overcoming Adversity

Stricken with cerebral palsy, Cooperstown's Patrick Dewey overcame adversity, graduating with honors from Cooperstown Central School last month to a standing ovation. He's off to Edinboro University this fall, looking toward a career in radio. Reporter Libby Cudmore tells his story in this week's Freeman's Journal, no newsstands this afternoon.
