Both bands are off-shoots of the Neenah Community Band.      Several family members talked on ""How Dad/Grandpa has influenced their lives"" and Phil's favorite poem was read entitled ""I Am a Veteran.""

When the tribe gathered near Stockbridge, Massachusetts, they became known as the Stockbridge tribe. Captain Aupaumut was written of, by those who knew him in high esteem and General Washington mentioned him with praise on several occasions. He was born about 1757, descending as he did from a long line of chiefs noted for their sagacity and wisdom. He obtained his education and spoke several languages being sought after by the government to negotiate treaties with Indian tribes.

"I167513","Babcock","Havilah A."," ","8 Sep 1838","19 Apr 1905","14 Oct 2015","Appleton Post Crescent","Those who know Havilah Babcock's life story say the 19th-century man's accomplishments with his business partners are remarkable even by today's 21st-century standards.<br />
The paper industry will honor Babcock Thursday night in its Paper Industry International Hall of Fame for his role in co-founding one of the Fox Cities' iconic businesses, Kimberly-Clark Corp., almost a century-and-a-half ago.<br />
But there's more to the story than a Neenah industrialist who worked hard with his partners to create what would eventually become a $20 billion-dollar global company.<br />
""Everyone thinks they know Kimberly-Clark, but there's an aspect no one knows,"" said Peter Adams, Babcock's great-grandson and last descendant remaining in Wisconsin.<br />
""They did something that was truly phenomenal in the times they lived, or in any day. It was 150 years ago, before the Green Bay Packers. They honed the idea of what it was to be a team.""<br />
In 1872, Babcock and three other men  -  John Alfred Kimberly, Charles Clark and Frank C. Shattuck  -  created Kimberly, Clark & Co., which first made paper used for newspapers.<br />
""It sounds simple, but it was not. Every one of the four partners had the same say,"" said Adams. ""They all knew everybody else's jobs. They had equal shares of the business. They even went so far as when there were community projects, like the Neenah library, they gave the exact same amount of money. They played up each other's strengths, but they had this collective identity.""<br />
Clark was a strong leader, Adams said. Shattuck was a meticulous record-keeper and Kimberly had a scientific mind.<br />
Havilah Babcock, co-founder of Kimberly-Clark Corp.<br />

Babcock was the one with charisma and salesmanship.<br />
""The thing that stands out for me was how young and progressive they were,"" said Susan Middleton, records analyst and lead archivist for Kimberly-Clark. ""I don't think any were over the age of 35. You look at what they did as a group, and it's phenomenal. They were inexperienced men who took on something like this.<br />
""Babcock played a vital role in helping with the mills and businesses in those early years. He was successful in building those operations in the Fox Valley. He played a big role as corporate vice-president and later treasurer after Shattuck died.""<br />
Babcock was also a pivotal link to the next generation of leadership, and served as mentor to Frank J. Sensenbrenner, K-C's next chief executive who helped move the company toward becoming a world leader in paper and tissue-based consumer products.<br />
<br />
A ladies' man<br />
<br />
Havilah (a Biblical name his family pronounced ha-VY-lah) Babcock was born in 1837 in Vermont and began working for his father in construction in Neenah at age 12. He had a sixth-grade education, but was an avid reader and became self-educated.<br />
He and business partner Alfred Kimberly owned a dry goods store, bank and flour mill before they created Kimberly, Clark & Co. with their partners.<br />
He sang in the church choir and led an all-female Bible study at his Presbyterian church.<br />
""He was tall and good looking, and he first established his reputation selling dress goods to women. He had a devoted following of women. He loved beauty, the arts, fashion and style,"" said Adams.<br />
""He also understood quality. His reputation was based entirely on the highest quality possible. The company's initial success was because of the rag content of their newsprint. It was the highest quality paper being manufactured. It was a disposable product that was almost archival quality.""<br />
<br />
An American Downton Abbey<br />
Babcock's grand 1883 Queen Anne mansion at 537 E. Wisconsin Ave. in Neenah still stands as a perfectly preserved testament to his taste and love of high quality 110 years after his 1905 death.<br />
The house remains as he created it with allegorical stained glass windows, ornate woodwork, lavish furniture and oriental rugs.<br />
It has been nicknamed ""An American Downton Abbey,"" after the TV show, because of its grandeur.<br />
Though it's not open to the public  -  it is still a private home where Adams lives today  -  it can be seen via  Wisconsin Public Television's ""Remarkable Homes of Wisconsin"" at the 10 minute mark in http://video.wpt.org/video/2365438345/. It is also documented in the book ""Wisconsin's Own: Twenty Remarkable Homes"" and on Adams' 2012-2013 blog http://anamericandowntonabbey.blogspot.com/.<br />
Neenah High School students collaborated on a landmarks project with the Neenah Historical Society, and their research on the house is found at http://havilahbabcockhouse.weebly.com/.<br />
<br />
Company's early success<br />
Building was also part of the K-C company's early success.<br />
Once the four partners got into the paper business, they built or acquired seven paper mills in a little more than a decade.<br />
""Through this rapid expansion of capacity, Kimberly, Clark & Co. established the Fox River Valley as one of the leading centers of paper production in the U.S."" according to Babcock's hall of fame biography.<br />
Babcock will be the third of the four K-C founders to be inducted in the Paper Industry International Hall of Fame. Kimberly and Clark were previously inducted.<br />

He calls himself a ""putterer"" but to anyone who views the finished work of Harry Balck, 64, 1615 Riverdale Drive, he is a craftsman. Balck, an employee of Appleton Wire- An Albany International Co., makes furniture. With no formal training and without the benefit of woodworking classes, he turns out furniture which matches or surpasses anything that can be purchased in the finest furniture stores. What most people consider scrap or junk lumber, Balck turns into a work of art. He uses shipping crates, skids, pallets and tree trimmings in fashioning creations which cannot be duplicated. Balck has been interested in wood and creating things with it all his life but only in the past five or six years has he pursued the hobby in earnest. He started out with Christmas cribs and shrines but has graduated to much more elaborate items. Today, practically anything made of wood in his home and those of his four children are the results of his efforts. End tables, coffee tables, flower benches, chairs, bookcases, toy boxes, octagon tables, hutches and display cases are only a few of the many items he has turned out. Many of the items turned out by Balck are replicas of antique furniture formerly owned by his or his wife's parents. Some are patterned after pictures taken from newspapers or magazines and a good many are duplicates of items found in the most expensive furniture magazines. ""One of the items came to me in a dream,"" said Balck as he displayed an ornamental key which graced the wall of his home. Power tools in his basement would be the envy of anyone having the slightest ability to work with wood. A drill press, lathe, handsaw, jigsaw, joiner, belt sander are only a few of the many tools which indicate a major financial investment needed to pursue his hobby. Balck estimates that he spends three or four hours per day working in his basement but his wife claims that he is underestimating. Both agree that his woodworking is limited to winter months as warm weather in spring and summer finds him busy with yard work. The craftsman has no preference for the type of wood with which to create his finished products. He has used pine, ""cherry, oak, ash, apple, maple and even sumac in creating many of his masterpieces. Every piece of scrap wood is valuable to Balck and each has a character of its own. Scrap trim from the home he helped build was used to create a table with 48 pieces of wood fashioned together to form a 10-inch diameter top. His interest in making furniture probably can be traced back to his father, who did upholstery work. Balck remembers his first endeavour a small sewing cabinet for his mother. He had to borrow tools from a neighbor to fashion the piece which has since been duplicated on a much larger scale for his daughters and daughter-in-law. Many of the tools, gluing tables and supplementary items used in his craft were either designed or built by Balck to help facilitate and simplify his work. Displaying what he calls his ""supply depot,"" he said that about 75 per cent of his basement, a goodly share of the family garage, an outdoor picnic table and a pile of logs in his back yard are loaded with materials for future use. A daughter Margie assists him with design work and another daughter, Mrs. Gary Van Marter, has the responsibility for finishing the final projects. Balck rattles off the type of woods which result in the most beautiful furniture and claims that he almost cried when he learned that a friend had cut down a black walnut tree and had the wood hauled to a dump. Shipping crates, discarded broom handles, logs, broken furniture, discarded doors or anything wooden finds a place in the Balck home. Even the smallest piece of wood may someday find itself part of a master product. Picture frames made of logs with the bark still intact surround rustic scenes while modern plaques with a bicentennial motif show the versatility of the craftsman. Once, a plastics firm asked him to build 1,500 Christmas cribs, but when his wife figured out the cost of materials, hours of labor involved and governmental red tape, she estimated that the net profit would be about $4 so the request was quickly discarded. Balck does most of his work for himself and his family and occasionally will turn out an item for a friend on special request. His basement contains stacks, boxes and even barrels of patterns he has turned out over the years and his library consists of ""Popular Science"" and other magazines dating back to the 1930s.<br />
Mrs. Balck complains of sawdust in air ducts, on furniture and in the carpet and the loss of her laundry room to an assortment of wood and semi finished furniture, but the pride she shows in the accomplishments of her husband belies the complaints.<br />

ALEXANDER BESAW 102 year old Menomonee Indian and Veteran of the Civil War was photographed at the home of George DeLorme of Duck Creek, where he went in search of Mrs. DeLorme's father, Joseph Greenwood, with whom he served in the Union Army. He was in route from his home in Shawano to the Reunion of the 14th Wisconsin Infantry in Fond du Lac next Monday. He is the oldest veteran in the State as far as known. He is holding the Meerschaum pipe, dated 1814, which is one of his prized possessions.<br />
Indian, 102 Years Old, to Attend Reunion of Civil War Regiment<br />
Life is just one round of social events for Alexander Besaw of Shawano. Having just finished his 102nd birthday party, he now is going to Fond du Lac for the annual reunion of the 14th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, with which he served during the Civil War. At this reunion, which opens Monday, he will be the oldest member present, and one of the spryest.<br />
One would never guess that Besaw was 102 years old last month. He talks clearly, with a slight French accent, and makes his way without difficulty, depending only slightly upon the cane, which he carries. His sight is good, although his hearing is impaired. He says he is 102 years old and claims that his Civil War records bear out his assertion.<br />
Born at West De Pere<br />
""Lots of folks say 'He is not that old.'"" He declared vehemently. ""How can they tell? What do they know about how old I am?""<br />
Besaw was born in West De Pere on the banks of the Fox River, 102 years ago, and lived in that location until 22 years ago, when he moved to Shawano. He tells interestingly of early personages and incidents in this locality.<br />
The first white man he ever saw, he declares, was Cornell Dixon, who operated a sawmill on East River to turn out the timbers for the De Pere dam, but when the dam was in place it was insufficiently weighted, and following a northeast wind one night, the unfinished portion was carried upstream nearly to Little Rapids, where it broke up. ""And when the timbers floated back down stream, we got our share,"" he confessed with a grin.<br />
He was about 12 at this time and had never owned a pair of trousers, he said, only jeans. His mother, using a needle larger than a lead pencil and tread made from vine fibers, finally turned him out a pair of trousers, but neglected to tell him how to put them on. He finally solved the riddle by typing their corners to an angle in the rail fence, climbing the fence, and jumping into them.<br />
""I' m a man now,"" he thought, and announced his intentions of seeking work. He went to Mr. Reid, superintendent of the sawmill, and asked, ""Do you need any more men for the drive?"" referring to the drive of logs. The superintendent looked him over gravely, and announced he would try him out.<br />
Valley was Haunted<br />
""He gave me a peavey made of six-inch maple, with an iron a foot long on the end,"" the old man relates. ""I could not carry it, so I dragged it along by the small end. Then we came to a stump along side the log chute.""<br />
""You stay here he told me, and when a log comes a past, give it a shove with the peavey. I waited and then the log came, I dropped the peavey onto it, the point held fast so I could not get it out, and away went the log, peavey and all.""<br />
""You are no good for the drive, Mr. Reid told me, 'Go and help the cook.'""<br />
Soon young Besaw had saved enough money to buy a white linen suit for 1.50, and decided to go to a dance in Fort Howard. The trousers were too long and the coat too big, but he turned the trouser cuffs up, and tucked his coat in, and decided he was quiet a well-dressed young man.<br />
The trip to Green Bay (Fort Howard) necessitated a walk through the Ashwaubenon Creek and Valley, near where Hockers' Brickyard is now located, a locality commonly credited with being haunted. Besaw decided not to go through alone, but to wait for some other party. So he crawled into some bushes and waited.<br />
Soon two Frenchmen came along singing. Then one called to the other, ""If you see a ghost yell; and if I see one I will yell."" Thinking to get bast under this protection. Besaw fell into step behind them. Then the nearest Frenchman turned around and saw the white-clad figure.<br />
Frenchman See Ghost<br />
""Oh Lord, there is one now. Run!"" he screamed, and he and his companion took to their heels. Besaw unaware that he was he 'ghost,' also fled, and being young soon winded the Frenchmen, the weaker of whom collapsed on the ground, praying for deliverance from the specter. So weak and terrified was he that the combined effort of his companion and Besaw were required to get him to the settlement, and the well-dressed young man did not go to the dance.<br />
Four times the young Indian accompanied Dixon to Chicago with the mail. At Fond du Lac, there was a single settler; on the site of what is now Milwaukee, Solomon Juneau had his shack of popple poles. On one trip, near where Racine stands now, Dixon was trapped by a falling tree, and Besaw had to ride to the nearest settlement help. He knew only his own tongue but by a dint of energetic chopping motions, he convinced them that they should bring axes and follow him. Dixon was free and unhurt.<br />
The route led through Sheboygan, which, pronounced in Indian, sounds like Chetaucon. At Sheboygan Falls, Besaw declares, he saw from 10,000 to 15,000 Indians housed in gathered there to spear the fish as their ascent of the river was blocked by the falls.<br />
In those days, he said one could 'walk on money,' but he had no place to spend it, and nothing to spend it for. At one time, food was so scarce that tea was $8 a pound and a 50 pound sack of flour brought $29. The only thing cheap was whiskey. It sold for 15 cent a gallon, and any store, which did not provide a barrel of it with a dipper, for the refreshment of customers, was boycotted for its failure to show this courtesy to patrons.<br />
Hale and Spry<br />
When the war broke out, Besaw joined Company F of the 14th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, sometimes called the 'Indian Company,' although its roster included a large portion of whites. He served throughout the war and was wounded four times. At Gettysburg, a ball pierced his stomach and lodged in his backbone.<br />
One of his prized possessions is a meerschaum pipe bearing the date 1814. He originally bought it for $7, he said, but later the shopkeeper sought to buy it back, claiming he had not known its real value. Besaw finally consented to relinquish the pipe upon return of his $7 and 36 pounds of tobacco 'to boot.' He later regained possession of it when the merchant retired from business at Antigo."

George J. Besnah, Chicago and North Western railway switchman fatally injured in an accident here Saturday, came to his death through the ""failure of N. L. Ropp in not keeping the proper lookout,"" a coroner's jury decided here yesterday at the municipal building. Besnah was crushed between a car, driven by Ropp, and an engine. District Attorney Raymond P. Dohr said that Ropp's failure to keep a proper lookout did not constitute gross negligence and that no criminal action against him is contemplated. Evidence introduced at the inquest showed that Ropp was, approaching the Main street crossing from the south while Besnah was engaged in flagging traffic. Witnessed Accident : George Kramer, engineer and the only witness to see Ropp's car ac tually strike Besnah, said he thought Ropp was traveling about 30 miles an hour, and that the switchman realized his danger when the approaching car was about 10 feet away, dodging in an attempt to avoid being hit Kromer, Dan Hennessey, switch engine foreman, Ben Zwick, fireman, and Richard Helf, switchman. all riding on the engine, testifies the bell had been ringing continuously since 200 feet east of the accident. Under the questioning of Raymond P. Dohr, district attorney, it was brought out that visibility was good, the pavement dry and no obstructions which might have obscured Ropp's vision were present. Brakes Didn't Work Ropp was not at the inquest, being confined to his nome, unable to testify, his physician reported. John Haid, assistant chief of police, and Kromer, told the jury they had questioned Ropp as to how the accident happened, and he had told them his brakes did not work, and that he saw no man in front of the engine. Dohr remarked that it would appear Ropp would be unable to offer more information than this if he was present. Dr. A. M. Bachhuber, who arrived on the scene of the accident almost immediately, said Besnah came to his death from the amputation of his left leg, shock, hemorrhage and a very likely skull fracture. Besnan died shortly after he was taken to St. Elizabeth's hospital at Appleton.<br />

Spent 77 Days Behind German Lines; Corporal comes Home<br />
Little Chute -Corporal Jonnie Biersteker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Biersteker, Little Chute, recently arrived home for a 60-day leave, after serving on a B-24 bomber which was forced down behind the German lines after a raid on the Jet fields near Munich. He spent 77 days behind the enemy lines before being returned to the American base.<br />
A ball turret operator on the bomber, the Little Chute airman said that the failure of two motors forced the craft to fly low looking for a landing. They ran smack into a German airfield and 20-millimeter shell completed the job of landing in a hurry. All but three of the crew escaped to the hills. After 36 hours of hiding, the Americans made contact with Ugo-Slav and Italian patriots, who gave them clothes and food which enabled them to pass the Germans unmolested. It was a Udene, Italy, that the group of seven split up as the German S. S. troops knew that there were Americans in the vicinity through spies. At Trieste a German patrol encountered them but the Americans again escaped. They were contacted several different times by the German S. S. troops, but had plenty of help from the patriots, both men and women, who had no use for the Germans.<br />
After again encountering a group of 25 of the enemy on patrol the American guides were lost and Biersteker and his companions again had to take to the hills for three days, going without food and water. Finally, venturing out of hiding, the party met an elderly man who turned out to be a partisan, and contact was made with the American Intelligence operating near there. But before long another German group rounded up a number of men of military age and any found were shot on the spot. A large group of patriots captured the Germans and forced them to dig their own graves before they were shot down, the Little Chute airman recalled. Fierce Hatred He was handed a gun and asked to help liquidate the enemy. He appeard reluctant and one of the women in the party called him softie, and finished the job herself. The women had more fierce hatred than the men for the enemy and proved it many a time, he said. Later on the American group was taken to a highway where they were met by a Dec 22 2012 Family of Peter C Biersteker - continued Page 4 truck, which proved to be on of Marhall Tito's. From there they were taken to airfield and flown back to American lines. Credit for the rescue of the Americans was given to the Ugo-Slav and Italian Patriots who fought the enemy with everything they possessed. On the day the Americans landed, the partisan sut communication lines to stop reports of the American whereabout from being forwarded. The boys first escape was made by lying down in a water-filled ditch which the German marchers passed by. From then on was forced hikes of 15 hours per day to keep ahead of the S. S. troops who were constantly following them.<br />
Corporal Biersteker has been in the service two years and overseas six months. He has four battle stars, the air medal, and a unit citation, received by the 14th airforde, of which he was a member. He will report back to his base aug. 23 for reassignment.<br />

"I307678","Blood","Katherine ""Kitty Or Katie""","Miller","4 May 1851","28 Dec 1874","31 Oct 2015","Appleton Post Crescent","APPLETON  -  Kate Blood has been called an ax murderer and a witch.<br />
Regardless of details, the modern-day implications of the Appleton urban legend remain the same for those who dare visit Blood's off-the-path tombstone at Riverside Cemetery.<br />
There have been claims of an apparition. It's been said those who approach during a full moon might witness blood oozing from the face of the family stone on which her name is engraved.<br />
Judi Gault, cemetery administrator, said Blood's final resting place is among the most visited there, having been included in books on haunted locations and wild tales circulated on the Internet.<br />
""There's intrigue,"" she said. ""There's mystique.""<br />
The genesis of Blood as an urban legend is a mystery. The annals of history couldn't address claims of supernatural activity at her final resting place, though the record does speak of a woman far removed from the dark tales for which she's become known.<br />
She was the daughter of an influential settler and one of the first children born in the young community in the mid-19th Century.<br />
Frank Anderson, an Appleton musician, artist and author  -  and a man with zeal for early Appleton history  -  says Blood is a woman maligned.<br />
""I will always call her the first daughter of Appleton,"" Anderson said. ""The people loved her, and they'd be stunned by what we're doing today.""<br />
'It's fantastical'<br />
Blood's tombstone stands a distance from the remainder of markers for Appleton's earliest residents.<br />
Finding the grave from within the cemetery requires a short walk down a sloped trail that's chained off from vehicle traffic. It's on a Fox River bluff in a wooded area that feels separate from the pristine grounds.<br />
Some approach from a trail head on the riverside portion of Peabody Park.<br />
Chad Lewis, a paranormal researcher and author from Eau Claire, couldn't pinpoint origins of the Kate Blood tales, though they first caught his attention about 20 years ago.<br />
""I love stories that are a little unusual  -  ghosts, the blood oozing,"" Lewis said. ""It's a little bit different. It stands out. It's fantastical.""<br />
A common story says Blood murdered her husband and children with an ax before committing suicide, though a glance at the stone is enough to debunk it. Her husband, George M. Miller, outlived her by 42 years and had married again.<br />
In another version that has been passed from generation to generation, she was murdered by her husband.<br />
Lewis said witchcraft and murder are common themes in urban legends across the country, but in another sense, the tales associated with Blood break from the mold.<br />
""Normally, there's something about the legend that rings true,"" Lewis said.<br />
'She lived for others'<br />
The real Kate Blood was affectionately known in life by her nickname, Kitty.<br />
Her father arrived as a Methodist volunteer, became a prominent community member and his family was held in high regard.<br />
Kitty Blood's husband was an editor of the Appleton Post.<br />
Her father, Henry Blood, played a significant role in Appleton's founding and was among four who laid out the plots for the village and for Lawrence Institute. He built the first shanty in Appleton in 1848 and was named Grand Chute's first town chairman.<br />
He was a hands-on man and leader, whether laying out the community's grid or pulling tree stumps from what we know today as College Avenue, Anderson said.<br />
Kitty's passing was a tragic event and word spread quickly. The Appleton Post stopped the presses to include an announcement.<br />
She was just 23 when stricken with tuberculosis, and had traveled south to stay with family in a warmer climate. She soon died in Lawrence,  Kansas, and her body was brought back to a grieving community by train.<br />
She left behind a 2-year-old daughter. Her full obituary  -  printed in the Jan. 7, 1875 edition of the Appleton Post  -  ran longer than many of the news stories that day.<br />
""She lived for others, and for those she loved, no sacrifice was too great which involved their happiness,"" it read.<br />
Her influence was such that condolences were offered in the Fond du Lac Reporter. The Post's competitor, The Appleton Crescent, offered sympathies.<br />
""In all of the endearing relations of Wife, Mother, Daughter and Friend, few will be so much missed from society here,"" it read.<br />
'Blood' a likely explanation<br />
Lewis and Anderson each suggest her sanguine surname gave rise to the dark tales.<br />
Blood is a common English surname, though one that has been mostly absent from the Fox Valley since the early 20th century, Anderson said.<br />
Riverside isn't the only Wisconsin cemetery that's given rise to rumor based on the presence of a person named Blood.<br />
A legend arose from a small Portage County cemetery and the grave of Civil War veteran Calvin Blood.  The stories there suggest Blood hung himself in a cemetery tree, and today blood will flow from it, Lewis said.<br />
Use of Kate Blood's maiden rather than married name on the tombstone contributes to the tales, as does the stone's tucked-away location.<br />
Anderson suggested a more reasonable explanation for the location of the grave. It was among the first at Riverside Cemetery, which was established just four years before Blood's death, and the plot suggests her importance.<br />
It's prime real estate, and in a similar fashion to Sen. Joseph McCarthy's burial place at St. Mary's Cemetery.<br />
""Both have commanding views of the Fox River,"" Anderson said.<br />
<br />
'Believing is seeing'<br />
Lewis isn't one to declare a place haunted or not, encouraging the curious to determine for themselves.<br />
He's heard from those convinced the Blood grave is a supernatural site.<br />
The more common phrase: ""seeing is believing.""<br />
Lewis thinks there are circumstances in which ""believing is seeing,"" or that those who arrive with expectations might be more likely to have them fulfilled.<br />
It's human nature to not let facts get in the way of a good story, and urban legends will persist as long as there are teenagers craving a scare.<br />
Anderson said the many versions of the tale represent the need of people to contribute to lore. Society prefers gossip to fact.<br />
""People are creative, and storytelling is at the root of every human,"" he said. ""She was a wonderful girl, who's now Kate Blood, this creature  -  and everyone would rather go with the witch.""<br />
The stories have most certainly made their rounds.<br />
Incidentally, Anderson and Susan Howe in their musical collaboration have dubbed themselves ""The Kate Bloods.""<br />
Blood's name this Halloween season was found frosted upon tombstone-shaped sugar cookies at a Fox Cities grocery store.<br />
The stories of Kate Blood are pervasive enough that Riverside Cemetery references the grave on its website, with a request for respect and a reminder the cemetery grounds close at sunset.<br />
Its staff abhors the thought of vandalism, but they're happy to have Kate Blood as part of their story.<br />
Gault said the cemetery is a place of mourning and reflection, but also one that speaks to Appleton from its very beginnings. The respectfully curious are always welcome, whether the draw is frightening folklore or a chance to connect with the community's past.<br />
""We know our biggest gem is our history,"" she said.<br />

The Grand Chute woman hopes an event Saturday in Kaukauna bearing her daughter's name will help with some of those expenses and support local vets.<br />
""The government pays for certain things, but then there's a gap for soldiers when they come home,"" Bosveld said. ""We're also doing it to honor and respect all who serve in the military.""<br />
The Rachel Bosveld Fallen Soldiers Memory Walk at 1000 Islands Environmental Center in Kaukauna will host a walking route past several ""memory sites."" Organizers hope families will post pictures and reminders of service members before the walk begins.<br />
<br />
Mary Bosveld said she would like the event to become an annual tradition supporting a new fund through the Community Benefit Tree, a Kaukauna-based nonprofit providing funds for medical expenses.<br />
<br />
Some of the proceeds also will go to a music and art scholarship in Oshkosh and the preliminary planning of a Women's Fox Valley Memorial Park, honoring female veterans.<br />
<br />
At the age of 19, Rachel Bosveld was the first female service member from Wisconsin to be killed in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and also the first female to be killed in action in Iraq in 2003. She grew up in Oshkosh until shortly before enlisting when she moved to Waupun.<br />
<br />
""We'll have an art display with some of Rachel's oil pieces, a statue and some pottery,"" Bosveld said. ""It's a family event to help educate folks about the military, and it's about cherishing life.""<br />
<br />
Heidi Frederickson, Community Benefit Tree executive director, said the event will feature members of the American Legion and National Guard.<br />
<br />
""At 12:30, we'll have a ceremony for Gold Star families along with a gun salute and taps,"" Frederickson said.<br />
<br />
Bosveld said she hopes the walk will take on a positive tone and reach out to living military members and their families, as well as honor those who have died.<br />
<br />
""So many times when people have fundraisers, it's a sad thing. I want it to be a happy, family event because we're celebrating their life,"" she said. ""The funerals are done —   let's celebrate what they did in their lifetime. Each person that lost their life, or puts it on the line, is unique and special."""

Askeaton - Every other time I had driven right on by.<br />
Not this time. Maybe it was the afterglow of Irish Fest, or maybe it was that I wasn't exactly headed anywhere, so why not stop to check out the sign that read ""Askeaton - Irish Country.""And I was not misled. The first farm on Hill Road was a Finnegan's, and there were shamrocks on the front of Holland Town Hall. Halfway up Hill Road was St. Pat's Church Road, and up St. Pat's Church Road was St. Patrick 's Catholic Church itself, its steeple stretching toward heaven. And across the road, as I had suspected, was a cemetery filled with Burnses and Brennans, Meehans and Shannons, even a cluster of Clancys. It was Irish country, all right, and has been for more than 150 years. That much I could read with my own eyes, if nothing else from the 1856 on the cemetery sign and the names on the stones. But behind those obvious clues was a larger story of immigrant America and pioneer Wisconsin, a story filled out in a history of Askeaton I borrowed from Father Al Geisler (""like the potato chip"") when he emerged from his rectory to mail a letter and found me in the parish bone yard.Askeaton (originally called East Holland) was still covered with virgin timber when the first Irish settlers arrived in the early 1850s, refugees of the devastating potato famine. Some were from Askeaton, in County Limerick, and so the name was resurrected in the new world. Soon land was cleared for farms, a small log school was built and also a small log church to house the growing congregation of Irish Catholics. Of course it was called St. Patrick's. As the community continued to grow, it became evident that a larger church was needed, so funds were sought and plans drawn. The basement was dug by parishioners with teams of horses and scrapers and in November of 1908 the current St. Patrick's Church, which still has 250 members, was blessed and dedicated.Today there is little other than the church and scattered farms to suggest Askeaton was once a thriving little place. Its mailing address is actually Greenleaf. But there was a time baseball followed 8 o'clock Mass, and there were cheese factories, a depot, post office and both parochial and public schools just a hundred-yard dash from each other in the shadow of the church's steeple.The separate schools share a neat historical footnote. For some years, Franciscan nuns taught the area's first and second grades at the parochial school, and also taught third through eighth grades at the public school, a blurring of church and state boundaries that ended under a frown from Madison in 1953. And the day there were not enough nuns for St. Patrick 's school, either, said John F. Hart in his story of Askeaton, ""was a sad day indeed, and it took a number of years to get over the shock.""The real fun of reading Hart's account was not so much the official story of Askeaton as the unofficial stories of its residents.<br />
<b>Thomas Brick</b>, a prosperous farmer with 12 children, was noted for playing nice sweet music on his violin. Patrick Clancy danced the jig and played violin in the church choir. Thomas Hart had an orchestra that played for dances, Michael Kelly ran Kelly's Saloon and none other than one Patrick Hart became the first priest-son of St. Patrick's Church. Askeaton was once a place where loose pigs on the highway could be confiscated, where widowed ladies were given $20 in aid from taxpayers and music mattered.""The Irish didn't need much of an excuse for a house party,"" Hart wrote. "" If they would run short of an anniversary, they would make one up! I went to a few of these parties as a boy. One night there was a party at <b>Thomas Brick Sr.</b>'s and I watched 'Long' Maurice Summers do the 'Irish Clog .' It fascinated me so that from that night on I tried to imitate him.""None of that, of course, was in evidence the day I stopped by. Askeaton was country quiet, as it always is, said Father Geisler, except on Sunday mornings or for parish picnics. But I'm glad I read Hart's account of what once was to lend context to the names on the stones. I like cemeteries, but it's nice to know a place once had life, too.Contact Dennis McCann at (414) 224-2528, e-mail him at dmccann@onwis.com or write him at Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Box 371, Milwaukee, WI 5320 1."

After one week's illness with pneumonia, Peter O'Donnell passed peacefully away at his home two miles north of the village, at 10:20 o'clock yesterday morning, aged 59 years. The deceased came here from Calumet county three years ago, having purchased F. B. Perrigo's farm of 40 acres, to which he subsequently added 200 more acres. Mr. O'Donnell was a hard working, honest gentleman, and though his residence here had been a comparatively brief one, he had gained the respect and esteem of all whom had formed his acquaintance. He is survived by a sorrowing wife and four children-two sons and two daughters.-Oconto Falls Herald, Jan. 29th.<br />

Grimes, 18, and a 16-year-old male, both of Berlin, Wis. The 16year-old can't be named because he is a juvenile, although this would change if he were waived to adult court, authorities said. Monroe County Sheriff Dale Trowbridge confirmed Saturday that the deaths were being treated as a double homicide.<br />
<br />
There was probably a total of nine or ten shots,'' Trowbridge said. A school bus driver found William Leis' body on the side of a road, about 50 feet from the end of the Leis driveway. His mother's body was found in the farmhouse, where they both lived. Berlin police officers arrested the suspects about nine hours later, after Monroe County authorities had asked for the help of surrounding agencies in finding a black Ford Mustang seen near Tunnel City in the days before the shootings. Police had a license plate number because of an earli er traffic stop that had been made in Monroe County, Police Sgt. Jason Westpfahl said. Trowbridge said both suspects were brought to the Coulee Region. Grimes is being held at the Monroe County Jail, and the 16-year-old is being held at a juvenile detention center in La Crosse. One of the men had been interviewed as of Saturday afternoon, but because Trowbridge wasn't present at the interview, he didn't know if the suspect had been cooperative.<br />
<br />
We're still investigating,'' Trowbridge said.  We' re going to try and work through the night. We're trying to process evidence and re-interview people.'' There was still no word Saturday on a possible motive. Westpfahl had said Friday he didn't know if anything was taken from the farmhouse.  Not to my knowledge, but we're not sure either way,'' he said. Evelyn Leis, the mother of six children, was born and raised in Norwalk, Wis., said one of her daughters, Alice Hill. A longtime member of St. Mary's Catholic Church in Tomah, Wis., Evelyn Leis was an independent lady who loved gardening and fishing. Her husband died six years ago. William Leis was a veteran of the Vietnam War who never married, Hill said. He was vice president of a power company called Uninterruptible Power Products.<br />
<br />
He was quiet,'' Hill said.  He kept himself to himself somewhat, but he was a very likable person. He had no children, but he loved children, and was loved by children.'' Hill said the circumstances of her mother's and brother 's deaths are much harder to bear than if they had been killed in a car accident, for example.   This was a malicious act to two innocent, loving, caring people,'' Hill said.  There are a lot of whys. I hope we get those answers soon.''<br />

Bus driver relives day he found body By JOEL HANNAHS Of the Tribune staff SPARTA, Wis. -- With Halloween only a few weeks awa y, Tomah School District bus driver Jeff Hill at first thought what he saw lying alongside the road on the morning of Oct. 8, 1999, might be a scarecrow. Since he had children on the bus, he decided to park the vehicle some distance away and walk to where the figure lay face-down and with one shoe missing, he said. The man's head was bloodstained, Hill testified at the Monroe County Courthouse Tuesday.  His legs were together, his feet were extended, his hands were underneath his chest and he was face down,'' Hill said.  I would say two-thirds of his body was in the road.'' He had found the body of 51-year-old William D. Leis. When State Patrol Inspector Jim Vieth arrived -- expecting to see a bus accident because Hill had been careful about what he said in the children's presence while making the emergency call -- he determined Leis had been dead for some time. Later that morning, he and another officer entered the house at 10094 Elk Road in La Grange and found the body of 81-year-old Evelyn L. Leis in the bathroom. They knew immediately that she was a homicide victim, Vieth said. Both people had been shot. Jimmy L. Grimes, 18, of Berlin, Wis., accused of committing the slayings with 17-year-old Daniel F. Cerney, listened to the testimony of nine witnesses on the second day of his trial on two counts of first degree intentional homicide and other charges. The Marathon County jury is sequestered in a Sparta hotel, and the trial's opening arguments were heard Monday in Wausau. Testimony will continue today in Sparta. Cerney has already been tried and convicted of the same crimes. In a motion hearing before the day's testimony, Assistant District Attorney Elisabeth Andrews Mueller noted that defense attorney Timothy Gaskell of Westby, in his opening arguments, outlined a strategy of blaming Cerney,  which is interesting, because Dan (Cerney) blamed everything on Jimmy (Grimes) during his trial.'' Gaskell reinforced that strategy with his brief cross-examination of Monroe County Detective Eric Matson. Under questioning from a prosecutor, Matson described dozens of items found in the Oct. 8 search of Grimes' residence. But Gaskell's questioning pointed out that Cerney's high school identification card also was found there. When officers entered the Berlin residence, they found garbage, cans, bottles, pizza boxes and bullet holes in the walls, but not a single item of furniture, Matson said. There were televisions, a videocassette recorder and a black plastic bag containing several rifles and knives. Prosecutors Mueller and state assistant attorney Judy Schultz called several neighbors to testify that they saw a black Ford Mustang being driven near the Leis' home Oct. 6 and 7. The car matches the description of one Grimes drives, authorities said. PPP  Every half-hour, 40 minutes, I saw it driving by,'' said neighbor Greg Von Haden. The car was distinctive enough that, at one point, he saw the partial plate number 255 and remembered it, reporting it to officers after the deaths were discovered. Gary Von Haden testified that he saw the black car in the driveway of the Leis residence about 4 p.m., and another neighbor, Perry Lamb, said he also saw the car backing down the hill near the driveway and turning around. That was about 4:15 p.m ., he said. Debbie Abbott, who raised Grimes from age 2 for his birth mother -- her sister -- but never adopted him, testified that he arrived at her home, about five miles from the crime scene, between 4: 30 and 4:45 p.m. Grimes told her he was not feeling well and was going to his Berlin residence, she said. At the Elk Road scene, officers collected seven .22 caliber casings from the roadway and later found a .357 caliber handgun in the nearby cornfield, officers testified.<br />

Burglary plot supported in testimony at Grimes trial By JOEL HANNAHS Of the Tribune staff SPARTA, Wis. -- The day before William and Evelyn Leis were killed, Jimmy Grimes had spent the day driving the neighborhood with three girls plotting a burglary, one of the girls testified Wednesday. Two acquaintances who said they plotted thefts with Grimes, now 19, testified Wednesday at his double homicide trial at the Monroe County Courthouse. Former co-defendant Daniel Cerney, now 17, was convicted in May for the crime. On Oct. 6, 1999, Crystal Lancaster had only known Grimes for a few weeks, but was hanging out at his place in Berlin, Wis ., as a runaway and had ridden with him in his black Ford Mustang to the Tomah area. She said that he talked about the home of someone he had worked for as a burglary target, and the group ended up driving by the house about 10 times that day, confirming testimony from neighbors earlier in the trial. At one point, Grimes pointed a gun out the window and said he had  perfect aim.'' The group convinced Lancaster to approach the house and try to get a ride into town, while the others could hang back and burglarize the place after the owner was gone. She testified that she went to the house and pretended to use the phone but did not ask for a ride. When she got back to the Mustang, she told the others she had followed the plan, but the woman would not give her a ride. Grimes, with an accomplice, is accused of returning to the house at 10094 Elk Road in La Grange the next day and slaying 51 -year-old William Leis and his 85-year-old mother, Evelyn, early Oct. 8. Justin Lenski, now in a military-styled juvenile program for his admitted role in an attempted robbery of a fast food restaurant, testified Grimes did most of the planning for that failed robbery. A group of four teens had parked and three of them walked across a field wearing ski masks or nylon over their faces, but were thwarted when the woman closed up for the night a few minutes before they got there. They had brought duct tape with the intent of tying her up, because they thought there would be $26,000 available at the restaurant. Cerney talked Lenski out of going along when the pair went to Tomah, but Lenski said he saw Cerney carrying a rifle wrapped in a black leather jacket. They were gone about three or four hours, and when they returned Cerney was excited and Grimes was quiet, he said.<br />
<br />
Oh, my God, I just shot two people,'' Cerney said, according to Lenski's testimony. Later, he amended it:  I mean me and Jimmy just shot two people. I hope we don't get caught.'' Attorneys questioned Lenski repeatedly about those words because his statements have not always included all of that phrasing. Lenski also testified that he overheard Grimes say some thing about burning bloody clothes, but under cross-examination said he had never mentioned that to officers or in the Cerney trial . Lenski and Lancaster both testified that they saw the pair bringing in several guns out of the trunk after getting back Oc t. 8. Lenski, who ended every phrase with  ma'am'' or  sir,'' also saw them bring in a bag of apples. Lancaster testified that on O ct. 6, after being thwarted in the initial plan to burglarize the Leis residence, the group of Grimes, Lancaster and two other girls entered two other houses in the rural area, stealing a TV, about $100, change and knives. In other testimony, David Larsen of the Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation testified that at least one of the shots that struck William Leis was from no further away than five feet. His body was found partially on the roadway, and all of the nearby shell casings were from a semiautomatic .22-caliber rifle that matched one seized from Cerney's home. Analysis of the actual bullet fragments is also consistent with the gun, but not conclusive, he said. All of the casings found inside the house, near where the body of Evelyn Leis was found huddled on the bathroom floor, matched the bolt-action .22-caliber rifle that was seized. Through the testimony of Gerald Kotajarvi, latent fingerprint examiner for the DCI, prosecutors introduced dozens of photographs of the crime scene, and jurors looked them over one-by-one while the courtroom fell silent for nearly 30 minutes Wednesday morning. Grimes showed no emotion as photos of Evelyn's blood stained body were held up for jurors to see. Kotajarvi testified that part of the bathroom door latch had been broken off and was found lying on the bathroom floor near her body . Jurors were actively interested and passed in questions for several of the witnesses: Could William's body have been lying on any cartridge shells before he was moved? Kotajarvi was unsure; Was anyone at the Berlin residence drinking or using drugs that day? Lenski said they were not; Did Cerney live with Grimes? No; How long were the pair gone? About three to four hours; How many people typically hung out at the Berlin place? Often 13 or 14; Were there footprints in the cornfield where a handgun was found? No; Did any of the doors in which Leis kept some guns lock? No, said Kotajarvi.<br />

Grimes guilty on 14 counts, including homicide By JOEL HANNAHS / Of the Tribune staff SPARTA, Wis. -- Jimmy Lee Grimes looked at the jury as the judge read verdicts finding him guilty of murder, but his face remained as impassive as it had throughout the seven-day trial. But in the back row of the courtroom, the woman who raised him as her child from the age of 2 wiped tears from her eyes while her husband placed his arm around her shoulders. Grimes, now 19, will be sentenced within 30 days on 14 criminal counts, but the date of the hearing has not been set. The jury returned guilty verdicts on all four counts of homicide, but two counts of conspiracy to commit first-degree homicide were dismissed after the verdict because they are redundant to the two counts of first-degree intentional homicide. In all, Grimes faced 21 counts covering accusations from Sept 30 to Oct. 8, 1999. Defense attorney Timothy Gaskell of West by spent the early part of his closing argument dealing with some of those charges, and the jury returned innocent verdicts on five counts: three of soliciting a child to commit a felony and two of armed burglary. Grimes, with an accomplice, was charged with shooting his mentor, 51-year-old William Leis, and his 85-year-old mother, Evelyn Leis, at their home at 10094 Elk Road, La Grange. Their bodies were found the morning of Oct. 8, and Grimes and Daniel F. Cerney were arrested that day in Berlin, Wis. Cerney, now 17, was convicted in May and will be sentenced Friday at the Monroe County Courthouse. He testified for the prosecution in Grimes' trial. Unlike Cerney, Grimes never said a word in his defense, and never gave a statement to officers. Gaskell called just one witness to point out Cerney's involvement with a gang, but relied on cross examination and his closing argument to sway the jury. The case went to the jury at about 3:20 p.m. Tuesday, and the panel, brought in from Marathon County due to pre-trial publicity, took about 5 hours and 40 minutes to consider 42 options on 21 counts. They notified Judge Michael McAlpine that they had reached a verdict about 8:55 p.m., only moments before he planned to check with them to see when they wished to quit for the night. In addition to the homicide charges, Grimes was found guilty of three counts of soliciting a minor to commit a felony, one count of robbery, one of theft of a firearm, and several counts of burglary. In closing for the prosecution, Monroe County Assistant District Attorney Elisabeth Andrews-Mueller took the jury chronologically through the days that led up to the killings, portraying Grimes as desperate for money, with a $25,900 debt still outstanding on his black Ford Mustang. She noted that as Grimes and his friends plotted an attempted robbery on a fast-food restaurant in Tomah Sept. 30, the amount they expected to find was $26,000. She reminded the jury of an Oct. 5 theft of a gun used in the attack and, the next day, how Grimes and the others planned to burglarize the Leis residence even as they broke into two neighbors' houses. The prosecution's theory is that Grimes stole a second gun from the Leis barn Oct. 7, when his car was seen parked in the farm's driveway that afternoon. William Leis was shot nine times, but only seven of the bullets were found. One shot that went through his body and was not found could have been fired from the bolt-action .22 that Grimes carried, Andrews-Mueller said. That gun was the more powerful of the two, according to trial testimony. Seven of the shots came from a semi-automatic. She stressed the reliability of the juvenile witnesses, pointing out that the crime scene and testimony by officers bolstered much of their testimony. Juveniles testified a pistol had been thrown into a cornfield, glass had been broken out on the Leis' home and the guns had been hidden in Grimes' basement. If Grimes had no intent or plan to kill the Leises, Andrews-Mueller said, why did he and companion Daniel Cerney go to the house at all when they could have just stolen guns from the barn? Why did they go to the residence at night, when they knew the Leises would be home? Why did they bring guns, why did they load the guns, why did all their friends think they were going to kill someone?<br />
These aren't accidents,'' Andrews-Mueller said.  These are intentional, deliberate acts against people who did nothing but try to help this kid.   She recalled a statement by Cerney, who testified against Grimes after being convicted in the killings in May, that the plan was to lure William Leis out, shoot him and then kill Leis' mother.  That's the only statement that's consistent with all the physical evidence,'' Andrews-Mueller said.  She called Grimes  the main reason'' why the Leises are no longer alive. But defense attorney Gaskell countered by offering the jury several theories on what could have happened on the night of the slayings, including one in which Cerney was mainly responsible. Gaskell contended the pair had no plan or intent to kill the Leises, pointing to statements the two made to friends when they returned from Tomah that  something had gone wrong.'' That statement indicates they never planned to kill, only to rob, he said. He argued it was Cerney who shot William Leis after Grimes lured him out of the house. Both then went to the back of the home, but it was again Cerney who shot through the window, striking Evelyn Leis before she reached the bathroom. Grimes then reached through the window and entered, to get the money, Gaskell said. He attacked Cerney's credibility on the witness stand and the credibility of the main juvenile witness, saying the girl tried to make Cerney look better because they were friends. He recalled statements about Cerney's involvement with a gang, and testimony that Cerney had told others,  Oh my God, I just killed two people, I hope I don't get caught.<br />
<br />
Dan Cerney's been convicted,'' Gaskell said.  Ladies and gentlemen, they've already convicted the right guy.   In her rebuttal, Andrews-Mueller dismissed Gaskell's theory as a  crazy story'' that, even if true, would still make Grimes guilty of aiding and abetting in the killings.  Don't let him get out of this,'' she told the jurors.  He's responsible.<br />
<br />
Teen gets life for murders By JOEL HANNAHS Of the Tribune staff SPARTA, Wis. -- Daniel F. Cerney will be 62 years old before parole officials can consider whether he should have a second chance at freedom. The Berlin, Wis., teen was sentenced Friday in Monroe County Court to two concurrent life sentences for his role in the Oct. 8 murders of William Leis, 51, and his 85-year-old mother, Evelyn Leis. It makes him eligible for parole after 45 years.   It's probably one of the most vicious crimes this court has seen,'' Monroe County Judge Steven L. Abbott said. Cerney, now 17, and Jimmy Lee Grimes, now 19, lured William Leis from his rural Tomah house by telling him that Grime s' car had broken down. They shot Leis nine times, according to trial testimony, then Grimes broke into the house and shot Evelyn Leis in the bathroom as she tried to call the police. Abbott said he decided to grant Cerney the possibility of parole because he believed Grimes was the instigator. But he stressed that Cerney not only had the option not to commit the crime, but could have stopped Grimes by simply not accompanying him. Grimes had shown an unwillingness to commit crimes alone."

What pension will Po1iceman Dennis Carroll draw when he retired is a question which has to be solved before he leaves the force, As yet no definite date for his retirement has been set, that no doubt depending on the pension decision amved at. Under the laws after a person has served as a policeman for twenty years he may retire on half pay. Up to the tîme of the re-organization of the force about six months ago Carroll was a merchant police, being paid $35 a month by the cîty and the balance by the merchants. The power the chief had over him was limited. He could not be ordered out of a certain down town district even in an emergency. Since he has been a member of the regular force, doing patro1 duty under the chief's orders, he has received $60 a month hom the city. Now the question which arises is as to whether he is entitled to $30 or $17.50 a month pension. To go on the pension list one must have been a member of the force for twenty years. Carro1l was first appointed twenty-eight years ago, but the question arises as to whether he is entitled to the full pension inasmuch as most of that time he has been on the force his police duties were limited and he was not under the full jurisdiction of the chief, or whether having been a member of the force for over twenty years he is entitled to the salary he is now drawing. In the railway service the pension is based on the average yearly salary the pensioner drew while he was in the road's employ.  In the army an officer's retired pay is based on that which he was drawing when retired."

Mr. Carroll, who is 67 years old, has just recovered hom a two month illness but his health does not permit him to continue in the work to which he devoted more than haIf of his life. He is one of the best known men of Appleton and carries with him into retirement the good wishes of the many men and firms he has served.  He is making his home with his daughter, Miss Genevieve Carroll, who is a teacher in the Fourth ward kindergarten.  Mrs. Carroll died only a few months ago.  Mr. Carroll would have completed thirty-five years as a police officer if he had remained on duty until April 13. The first two and one half years of his service on the force were spent as a patrolman with assignment to any beat. He was then given the position of merchant police with the special duty of guarding the downtown business section, a position he held until his retirement from the city po1ice force on a pension four years ago. Since that time he has been a deputy sheriff and special night watchman, his territory included five blocks on College Avenue. He was paid from a fund established by merchants and bankers whose property he guarded against burglaries. While he was a member of the police force part of his salary was paid by these same men.  The story of Mr. Carroll's connection with the police force is the storu of Appleton's development and of the changes made by the time. Only nine ofthe firms and institutions on College Avenue when Mr. Carroll took up his work 34 years ago are still in existence. They are A, Galpin Sons, then hnown as Galpin Brothers; C.F. Smith; David Brettschneider; Rossmeissl Shoe Company; First National Bank; Pettibone Peabody Company; K.F. Kel1er and Sons; Schalfer, Barrett and Tesch, now two firms, and the Post Publishing Company.  Mr. Carroll figured in several interesting arrests in his 34 years but only once was he injured in a fight with thugs. This one injury was received seven or eight years ago in a fight with three would be burglars back of the Pettibone-Peabody store. Mr. Carroll had two of the men under his control when he was struck on the head by the third thug.""  Came up from Behind. A11 three were later captured and hauled into court, Fearless Officer. In his younger days Mr. Carroll was one ofthe most fearless men on the police force. His friends assert he was afraid of nothing and was willing and able to tackle a regment of ""hard guys."" Even in his older days he experienced no quakings of fear when he investigated mysterious disturbances in the darkest p1aces in the city's business district. Retirement of Mr. Carroll places the entire burden ofthe protecîon of the downtown district on members of the regular police deparment. Mr. Carroll asserted when he resigned his position Wednesday night that his greatest regret was that he could not continue indefinitely in the service of the men who had treated him with every consideration in the performance of his duties."

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee,<br />
v.<br />
SAMUEL B. CERRO, Defendant-Appellant<br />
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT<br />
No. 85-1112<br />
September 19, 1985, Argued - November 4, 1985<br />
Lead opinion by POSNER<br />
909 POSNER, Circuit Judge.<br />
<br />
A jury convicted Samuel Cerro of five counts of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and three counts of filing false income tax returns. The judge gave him concurrent 15-year sentences on the first three conspiracy counts and consecutive 15-year sentences on the fourth and fifth conspiracy counts, for a total of 45 years. (Sentences of 3 years on each of the tax counts were made concurrent with the conspiracy sentences.) Cerro had also been charged with being a drug ""kingpin,"" see 21 U.S.C. § 848, a charge that allows the most severe punishment possible under current federal law -- life in prison without possibility of parole, see 21 U.S.C. §§ 848(a), (c), but this charge was dropped before trial on the authority of a dictum in United States. v. Jefferson, 714 F.2d 689, 702 n. 27 (7th Cir. 1983), that a drug conspiracy is not one of the felonies on which conviction of being a kingpin can be based, see 21 U.S.C. § 848(b)(1). The dictum was rejected in 910 United States v. Young, 745 F.2d 733, 750-52 (2d Cir. 1984). See also United States v. Schuster, 769 F.2d 337, 345 (6th Cir. 1985), and cases cited there. Its validity was left open in our recent decision in United States v. Markowski, 772 F.2d 358, 361 n. 1 (7th Cir. 1985), and need not be decided in this case either; the government did not appeal the dismissal of the kingpin count, as it could have done under 18 U.S.C. § 3731.<br />
<br />
The principal issue raised by Cerro's appeal is whether the five conspiracies were indeed separate or were instead aspects of a single conspiracy; if the latter, the maximum sentence (apart from the tax counts) is 15 years and Cerro must be resentenced. Each of the alleged conspiracies was between Cerro and one other person, to whom Cerro consigned (""fronted"") up to one ounce of cocaine each week for resale to users of cocaine. Each dealer would remit all or part of his retail sales revenues to Cerro, either retaining some of the revenues as compensation for his services or retaining some of the cocaine in lieu of money compensation.<br />
<br />
The five dealers were the principal witnesses against Cerro, testifying under grants of immunity. In Count I the dealer was Amato, and the evidence showed that the conspiracy ran from April 1980 to December 1980. The dealer and dates for the other conspiracies were as follows. Count II: Corti, summer or fall of 1978 to November 1980; Count III: Gaulke, March 1977 to the spring of 1979; Count IV: Schnidt, August 31, 1977 to December 8, 1980; Count V: Phillips, fall of 1979 to spring of 1981. Why the district judge imposed concurrent sentences for the first three conspiracies and consecutive ones for the last two is unclear. The fifth conspiracy did end later than the others, but the fourth (August 1977 to December 1980) fell within the overall span of the first three (March 1977 to December 1980).<br />
<br />
There was no evidence that any of the dealers knew that Cerro was selling cocaine through other dealers, beyond what might be inferred from the nature and timing of the conspiracies and the facts that all the transactions took place in Madison, Wisconsin, that Amato and Gaulke were brothers-in-law, that Corti ""fronted"" cocaine to Amato as well as selling cocaine at retail for Cerro, and that Phillips knew that Corti sold cocaine, though there is no indication that he knew that Cerro was Corti's supplier.<br />
<br />
More often it is the government that is arguing for a single overarching conspiracy and the defendant for multiple conspiracies, the most recent examples in this court being United States v. Andrus, 775 F.2d 825, slip op. at 20-21 (7th Cir. 1985), and United States v. Towers, 775 F.2d 184, slip op. at 8-9 (7th Cir. 1985). The reasons, in descending order of importance, are that the statements made by a conspirator are admissible against all coconspirators, that multiple conspiracies involving different parties can raise serious problems of misjoinder under Rule 8(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedures, see United States v. Velasquez, 772 F.2d 1348, 1352-53 (7th Cir. 1985), and that if a defendant is acquitted on one count of conspiracy and his convictions on other counts are reversed because of an error at the trial, retrial on those counts will be barred on the ground of double jeopardy if they actually charge the same offense as the one of which the defendant was acquitted. Although it might seem that the government would want to charge multiple conspiracies in the hope that the defendant(s) would receive heavier sentences, this is rarely the case. The indictment of a major drug distributor will usually contain multiple substantive counts, for which consecutive sentences can be imposed, as well as conspiracy counts. And consecutive sentences for a substantive drug offense and a conspiracy to commit such an offense are also permissible, see, e.g., United States v. Wylie, 625 F.2d 1371, 1381-82 (9th Cir. 1980); United States v. Cardi, 519 F.2d 309, 315 (7th Cir. 1975); United States v. Espinosa, 771 F.2d 1382, 1402-03 n. 27 (10th Cir. 1985), though infrequent, see Marcus, Conspiracy: 911 The Criminal Agreement in Theory and in Practice, 65 Geo. L.J. 925, 938 (1977).<br />
<br />
By a fluke, none of the disadvantages of multiple conspiracies to the government is present here (there is no misjoinder problem because there is only one defendant, so that Rule 8(a), which is more liberal than 8(b), see United States v. Velasquez, supra, 772 F.2d at 1352-53, applies). And since the government unaccountably failed to charge any substantive drug offenses and the ""kingpin"" count was dismissed, the only possibility for imposing a very long prison term on the defendant was to prove multiple conspiracies. Whether this should be important when the defendant is 59 years old and in exceedingly poor health is not for us to say.<br />
<br />
A conspiracy is an agreement; and to be a party to an agreement you must know something of its general scope and objective though not necessarily its details. See id. at 1351; Blumenthal v. United States, 332 U.S. 539, 557, (1947); United States v. Williams, 737 F.2d 594, 614 (7th Cir. 1984); United States v. Andolschek, 142 F.2d 503, 507 (2d Cir. 1944) (L. Hand, J.); cf. Raffles v. Wichelhaus, 2 Hurl. & C. 906, 159 Eng. Rep. 375 (Ex. 1864); Smith v. North Am. Co. for Life & Health Ins., 775 F.2d 777, slip op. at 5 (7th Cir. 1985). You must, of course, at the very least know there is an agreement. So for any of Cerro's dealers to be a party to an overarching conspiracy to distribute cocaine through more than one dealer, the dealer would have to know that Cerro was selling through other dealers. See, e.g., Kotteakos v. United States, 328 U.S. 750, 755, (1946); United States v. Elam, 678 F.2d 1234, 1245-47 (5th Cir. 1982); United States v. Barnes, 604 F.2d 121, 155 (2d Cir. 1979); United States v. Borelli, 336 F.2d 376, 383 n. 2 (2d Cir. 1964) (Friendly, J.).<br />
<br />
The cases sometimes say must know (Borelli, Elam, many others), less frequently must have reason to know (e.g., Barnes). Taken literally the latter formulation would imply something very curious indeed, that a conviction can be upheld without proof beyond a reasonable doubt of an element of the crime (knowledge of the conspiracy). But it should not be taken literally. Although usually in the law to say that someone has ""reason to know"" something means that he would be negligent in not knowing it, in the present context it means only that knowledge can be inferred from circumstantial evidence. If the facts indicate that the defendant must have known something (the formulation in Borelli), then a jury may be able to find beyond a reasonable doubt that he did know it, especially since the requirement of knowledge is satisfied by proof that the defendant willfully shut his eyes for fear of what he might see if he opened them, United States v. Josefik, 753 F.2d 585, 589 (7th Cir. 1985). This interpretation of ""reason to know"" is supported by the full text of the passage in the case from which Barnes got the phrase: ""if each [defendant retailer] knew, or had reason to know, that other retailers were involved with the Hernandez organization in a broad project for the smuggling, distribution and retail sale of narcotics, and had reason to believe that their own benefits derived from the operation were probably dependent upon the success of the entire venture, the jury could find that each had, in effect, agreed to participate in the over-all scheme."" United States v. Baxter, 492 F.2d 150, 158 (9th Cir. 1973) (emphasis added). But the jury would have to find participation beyond a reasonable doubt.<br />
<br />
A jury could have found that Cerro's dealers knew there were other dealers if for example Cerro had told the dealers this, if other dealers had told them, if they had observed cocaine dealings between Cerro and other dealers, or if they had seen Cerro with a quantity of cocaine too large to be distributed through one dealer. See, e.g., Blumenthal v. United States, supra, 332 U.S. at 549-59; Note, Federal Treatment of Multiple Conspiracies, 57 Colum. L. Rev. 387, 388-89 (1957). Considering that the dealers had a common 912 supplier, that most of the conspiracies overlapped in time, sometimes by years, that the conspiracies had the same purpose and one common participant, and that Cerro apparently made no effort to insulate any dealer from knowledge of the others, it is highly likely that the dealers did know they were part of a conspiracy involving other dealers. Nevertheless there is no direct evidence of this, nor evidence from which such knowledge could be inferred with the degree of certitude required for a criminal conviction. Even if the relationship among Amato, Corti, and Gaulke could be thought to warrant an inference that they knew of each other's involvement in Cerro's distribution of cocaine -- a proposition doubtful on its face but supported by language in some of the cases cited in the Columbia Law Review Note, supra, at 388 n. 12 -- these were the dealers involved in the first three conspiracy counts, and Cerro received concurrent sentences on those counts. The only link forged between those dealers and Schnidt and Phillips, the dealers involved in the other two counts, was Phillips' testimony that he knew that Corti was a cocaine dealer, and he did not testify that he knew that Corti was a dealer for Cerro.<br />
<br />
The failure to prove a single conspiracy is not surprising. It was no part of the government's purpose to show an overarching conspiracy -- quite the contrary -- or to show that the prosecution witnesses were members of such a conspiracy. And while Cerro might have wanted to establish a single conspiracy in order to put a cap on his sentence if he was convicted, he would not have improved his chances for acquittal by exploring the extent of the witnesses' knowledge of each other's dealings on his behalf. Testimony of their knowledge would have strengthened the case against him; testimony of their lack of knowledge would not have weakened it.<br />
<br />
But lack of proof that the dealers knew about each other need not be decisive on the question whether Cerro could be punished for multiple conspiracies. It is never right to try to answer a legal question, such as (in this case) whether there was one conspiracy or five conspiracies, without considering the purpose of the question. The purpose here is to decide whether Cerro was given an illegal sentence. For other purposes it would be clear that there were multiple conspiracies. It would be clear for example if any of the dealers had been charged with participating in an overarching conspiracy and the issue was whether the dealer could be convicted; lack of proof of a dealer's knowledge of a conspiracy broader than his own dealings with Cerro would doom any attempt to make such a charge stick.<br />
<br />
If on the other hand Cerro had been charged with being the hub of a single conspiracy embracing all five dealers, proof of the dealers' knowledge, though no doubt easy to come by if the government had wanted to explore that knowledge, might conceivably not have been necessary. Suppose, as has become familiar from the literature on espionage, revolution, and terrorism, that the leading members of a clandestine organization seek to minimize the chances of detection by adopting a system of ""cut-outs"" under which subordinate members know nothing about their superiors, their coordinate members, conceivably even the objects of the organization. See, e.g., Copeland, Without Cloak or Dagger: The Truth About the New Espionage 111-12, 140 (1974); Seth, Anatomy of Spying 97 (1963). It might be possible to argue that the leaders' ability to conduct their operations through completely insulated cells, thereby making those operations more rather than less effective, should not protect the leaders from charges of participation in one large conspiracy rather than a series of petty two-man conspiracies, with all the obstacles to effective prosecution in the run of cases that multiple-conspiracy charges create; that the ""hub"" of an illegal enterprise can be guilty of conspiracy even if the ""spokes"" do not have a common rim. Otherwise there is the paradox that ""a central figure will be guilty of one conspiracy or of many, depending entirely upon whether he informed each individual with whom he plotted of the others' existence."" 913 Developments in the Law, Criminal Conspiracy, 72 Harv. L. Rev. 920, 928 (1959).<br />
<br />
Whether the objection that a conspiracy of many requires a multiplicity of knowing conspirators could be surmounted is fortunately not an issue we need decide in this case. Maybe it will never have to be decided. In the type of case we have put each spoke is bound to know, in fact, that he is ""participating in a collective venture"" of some sort, United States v. Martino, 664 F.2d 860, 876 (2d Cir. 1981), though the government didn't bother to prove that here. It will be rare for none of the spokes to know even the general character of the venture. And one possible solution to the problem of cut-outs (though limited to drug cases), if there really is a problem, is the ""kingpin"" statute, cited earlier. True, it requires that the kingpin's substantive violations have been committed ""in concert with five or more other persons with respect to whom [the kingpin] occupies a position of organizer, a supervisory position, or any other position of management,"" 21 U.S.C. § 848(b)(2)(A); and the Supreme Court hinted strongly in Jeffers v. United States, 432 U.S. 137, 147-50, (1977), that the words ""in concert"" imply an agreement. But this requirement might conceivably be satisfied by proof of a separate agreement between the kingpin and each of his underlings. Cf. United States v. Becton, 751 F.2d 250, 254-55 (8th Cir. 1984); United States v. Dickey, 736 F.2d 571, 587 (10th Cir. 1984); United States v. Phillips, 664 F.2d 971, 1012-13 (5th Cir. 1981).<br />
<br />
In this case, where the only issue is length of sentence and no one suggests that the defendant was attempting to minimize his fellow conspirators' knowledge of the larger conspiracy, the argument against finding multiple conspiracies is compelling. The government cannot, just by choosing to prove less than it could easily have proved by asking its own witnesses another question -- namely, whether each of the dealers realized he was not alone -- get a defendant punished more severely; cannot, simply by not proving a single conspiracy, obtain punishment more severe than if it had proved one; cannot shift, to a defendant fearful of more severe punishment, the burden of proving how much his coconspirators knew about the conspiracy. The balance of advantages in a conspiracy case is adequately in the prosecutor's favor without his being allowed to gain a sentencing bonus by atomizing a single venture. Maybe for purposes of trial the government can charge as many conspiracies as it wants unless the effect is to confuse the jury. But we do not think the government can get the judge to pile on consecutive sentences by arbitrarily, as in this case, declining to present minimum evidence of what is pretty apparent without evidence, that there really was one conspiracy.<br />
<br />
The issue has arisen more commonly when the government, rather than charging multiple conspiracies in the same case (for, as we have said, the government's interests are ordinarily best served by charging a single overarching conspiracy), reindicts a defendant acquitted (or convicted) on another conspiracy charge, and the defendant argues that the conspiracies are one and the same for purposes of double jeopardy. Courts in such cases do not ask just whether the evidence required to establish the defendant's guilt is the same in both cases; that would encourage the prosecution to withhold some of its evidence in the first case. They also ask whether the ""conspiracy has been subdivided arbitrarily, resulting in multiple indictments for a single illegal agreement."" United States v. Castro, 629 F.2d 456, 461 (7th Cir. 1980); see also United States v. Sinito, 723 F.2d 1250, 1256 (6th Cir. 1983); United States v. Papa, 533 F.2d 815, 820 (2d Cir. 1976). The inference of arbitrary subdivision is particularly strong in this case and persuades us that the government should not be allowed to obtain a sentencing advantage from having failed at trial to explore the dealers' knowledge of the scope of the conspiracy in which each was involved.<br />
<br />
Contrary to its usual position in conspiracy cases, the government argues, however, 914 that it could not have charged a single conspiracy, because the dealings between Cerro and each dealer were not ""mutually dependent."" Many cases do say that mutual dependence must be shown for a course of dealings to be a single conspiracy. See, e.g., United States v. Percival, 756 F.2d 600, 607 (7th Cir. 1985); United States v. Dickey, supra, 736 F.2d at 582; United States v. Abushi, 682 F.2d 1289, 1295 (9th Cir. 1982); United States v. Bertolotti, 529 F.2d 149, 154 (2d Cir. 1975). But as the government well knows, this language is not taken literally. If it were, single conspiracies could not be charged in most cases (which are extraordinarily common) where a wholesaler of illegal drugs deals through more than one dealer, no matter how much each dealer knew about the scope of the operation. As is true of wholesale distribution generally, the viability of wholesale drug trafficking does not depend on the adherence of any single dealer. Lop off one dealer, and the wholesaler can hire another in his place or shift the dealer's allotment of drugs to one or more of his remaining dealers or simply reduce the scale of the drug operation. The dealers are not dependent on each other as a bank robber is dependent on the driver of the getaway car and vice versa. Just as Exxon would not go out of business if it lost one of its retail dealers, so a substantial drug operation would not go out of business because one of its retail dealers left the business.<br />
<br />
The expression ""mutual dependence"" can be taken literally only in cases (and not all of them, either) where the conspirators are different links in the chain of distribution. If the conspiracy is to distribute imported drugs and the sole importer defects, an essential link has been severed. But when the conspirators (all but one) sell in parallel, each is a strand rather than a link, and normally an inessential one; yet conspiracies of this sort are prosecuted all the time, and successfully, too. You can be part of a common enterprise without being indispensable to that enterprise; and a common enterprise for illegal ends is a conspiracy whose inessential as well as essential members are conspirators.<br />
<br />
""Mutual support"" would be a more accurate description of the cases, which require at most that the various arrangements and transactions alleged to constitute or manifest a single conspiracy contribute to the success of the overall undertaking and in that sense reinforce each other. At any rate, by choosing not to inquire into the dealers' knowledge of Cerro's operation, the government is barred from obtaining a sentencing advantage, since as we have said the facts show that Cerro was the hub of a conspiracy the ""spokes"" of which probably knew of each other's existence, and which was no more effective or dangerous a conspiracy if, contrary to all the probabilities, they in fact were in the dark and thought, each one, that he was Cerro's only dealer.<br />
<br />
The only other question that requires discussion (Cerro's other grounds of appeal being plainly without merit) is whether his conviction should be reversed because the district court improperly curtailed his efforts to impeach the credibility of the dealers, the principal witnesses against him. The pretrial order in this case, which apparently is used routinely by this district judge in criminal cases, requires written notice before the final pretrial conference if either counsel intends to try to present at trial evidence of, among other things, ""prior similar acts or any person ([Fed. R. Evid.] 404(b))."" Cerro's counsel did not object to the order and did not give the required notice, and at trial the judge forbade him to present some of the evidence regarding the prior crimes of the witnesses with which he hoped to impeach them. The two most important items of evidence that were excluded were that witness Gaulke's insurance-brokerage license had been revoked for fraud and that witness Corti was an extortionist.<br />
<br />
Although the district judge must know better than we what his pretrial order means, we find it very hard to understand how it could be read to require that defense counsel give the prosecution written 915 notice of the evidence with which it hopes to undermine the jury's belief in the truth of the testimony of the prosecution witnesses (and thus Cerro's counsel cannot be faulted for having failed to object to the order when it was entered). Rule 404(b), which provides that evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts illuminating a person's character is not admissible in order to prove that he acted in conformity with that character (but allows it to be admitted for other purposes), applies to evidence in chief, not to impeachment evidence. This is apparent from a comparison with Rules 608 and 609, which deal specifically with using evidence of character and of prior crimes to impeach witnesses. See also the Advisory Committee's Note to Rule 608(a).<br />
<br />
Whatever the pretrial order means, there is a serious question whether a district judge is empowered to require discovery of impeachment evidence. Pretrial discovery of federal criminal defendants is regulated in detail by Rules 12.1, 12.2, and 16 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, and nothing in any of them suggests that impeachment evidence is discoverable. Rule 16(b)(1)(A) limits compelled disclosure of defense documents to those ""which the defendant intends to introduce as evidence in chief at the trial."" Rule 16(d), on which the government relies here, regulates the manner rather than objects of discovery from a criminal defendant and is thus irrelevant to our issue. Whether the provision for pretrial conferences made by Rule 17.1 is intended to override the limitation in Rule 16(b)(1)(A) is most doubtful. Nothing in the language or history of the rule suggests that it is, an omission not surprising when we consider that a defendant's interest in being able to conduct a vigorous and effective cross-examination -- an interest central to the right of a criminal defendant under the Sixth Amendment ""to be confronted with the witnesses against him,"" see, e.g., Davis v. Alaska, 415 U.S. 308, 315-16, (1974) -- would be impaired if he had to give a precis of his cross-examination to the prosecution before trial. The effect of the pretrial order, as interpreted by the district judge, is to make the defendant do just that, whenever he plans to use evidence to buttress his cross-examination -- as often he will. For not only does effective cross-examination require that counsel be prepared to prove the falsity of replies to questions intended to undermine the witness's credibility, but independent evidence is usually a more fertile source of impeachment in cross-examination than replies to questions. See McCormick on Evidence 66 and n. 3 (Cleary 3d ed. 1984).<br />
<br />
But any error here was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. Keeping the revocation of Gaulke's broker's license from the jury could do little harm to the defendant. Given Gaulke's own testimony that he had stolen funds from his employer to pay for cocaine that he bought from Cerro, evidence that his insurance broker's license had been revoked would have been anticlimactic and its exclusion was surely harmless. And similarly with Corti. Evidence that he was an extortionist was excluded, it is true, but Corti admitted having committed perjury (though he said it had been done under duress), and perjury is more relevant to credibility than extortion would be. And remember that the whole premise of Gaulke's and Corti's testimony, as of the testimony of the other three dealers, was that they had sold cocaine illegally. Thus it is not as if the jury could have thought that Gaulke and Corti were anything but what they were: crooks singing for their freedom. Finally, the evidence of Cerro's guilt would have been overwhelming even if Gaulke and Corti had been thoroughly discredited by a mountain of evidence of their prior crimes -- especially once the three conspiracies are recharacterized as one, as we have held they must be.<br />
<br />
It is always perilous to speculate on what the effect of evidence improperly admitted was on a jury, or what the effect of evidence improperly excluded would have been. See Teitelbaum, Sutton-Barbere & Johnson, Evaluating the Prejudicial Effect of Evidence: Can Judges Identify the Impact of Improper Evidence 916 on Juries?, 1983 Wis. L. Rev. 1147. The lay mind evaluates evidence differently from the legal mind, and while many appellate judges have substantial experience with juries and perhaps great insight into the thinking process of juries, others do not. This is a reason to be wary about invoking the doctrine of harmless error (on which see, e.g., United States v. Hasting, 461 U.S. 499, 507-12, (1983); 3 LaFave & Israel, Criminal Procedure § 26.6, at pp. 278-81 (1984)) with regard to evidentiary rulings in jury cases.<br />
<br />
Most cases of harmless error involve the erroneous admission of evidence favorable to the prosecution. As a practical matter, if the evidence of guilt that was neither erroneously admitted nor tainted by the erroneously admitted evidence is overpowering, and the tainted evidence neither probative nor inflammatory (inflammatory evidence might overbear the judgment of a lay trier of fact), so that the appellate court can safely conclude that the likelihood that the defendant would have been acquitted is very small -- too small to warrant the delays and other costs entailed by ordering a new trial -- the error will be pronounced harmless (harmless beyond a reasonable doubt, if the appellate court is strongly convinced of its conclusion).<br />
<br />
Despite some contrary language in Davis v. Alaska, supra, 415 U.S. at 318, the doctrine of harmless error is available not only when the error consists of erroneously admitting evidence but also when it consists of excluding defense evidence in violation of the defendant's constitutional right to confront the witnesses against him. See, e.g., United States ex rel. Nance v. Fairman, 707 F.2d 936, 941-43 (7th Cir. 1983); United States ex rel. Scarpelli v. George, 687 F.2d 1012, 1016 (7th Cir. 1982), and the very full discussion of this issue by Judge Rubin in Carrillo v. Perkins, 723 F.2d 1165, 1170-72 (5th Cir. 1984). The test cannot be identical for the two types of error, however, and this for two reasons. First, the fact that improperly excluded evidence was inflammatory, in the sense of likely to distract and confuse the jury, would hardly be an argument against finding the error harmless; what would be, however, would be that the evidence was of the sort that might properly have carried great weight with the jury, even though the evidence put in by the prosecution was very strong. Second, there is an asymmetry between the prosecutor's being allowed to put in more evidence of guilt than he should have and the defendant's being prevented from putting on a defense. If the defendant were utterly precluded from defending himself, it would be clear that his conviction had to be reversed even if the evidence of guilt was overwhelming and could not have been offset by the evidence that the defendant would have introduced if allowed to do so. The Constitution assures the criminal defendant who wants it of some minimum amount of adversary procedure even if the outcome of the contest is a foregone conclusion. Otherwise the right to trial by jury could be denied on the ground that the outcome of the trial was foreordained and therefore the trial would be a waste of money. See Walberg v. Israel, 766 F.2d 1071, 1074 (7th Cir. 1985).<br />
<br />
But we are far from that extreme point in this case. Cerro's defense was impeded, probably improperly, but the impediment was a minor one; the error in keeping from the jury impeachment evidence of a marginal and cumulative nature must be deemed harmless beyond a reasonable doubt in a case such as this where the evidence of guilt was overwhelming and the defendant was allowed to put on a defense, if not quite so complete a defense as he might reasonably have desired. Cases in which error in the curtailment of a criminal defendant's right of effective cross-examination was found not harmless, such as Hoover v. Maryland, 714 F.2d 301, 306-07 (4th Cir. 1983), and United States v. Bates, 617 F.2d 585, 588 (10th Cir. 1980), are readily distinguishable.<br />
<br />
So Cerro's convictions must stand, along with the sentences for the tax offenses. But the case must be returned for resentencing 917 on the conspiracy counts in accordance with our conclusion that the defendant cannot be given consecutive sentences on those counts.<br />

In our very small town of Dundas, transportation was hardly taken for gran ted a half century ago. School and church were remote; both were in a neig hboring town.  There were twelve children in our family, and a varie ty of transportation challenges. In retrospect, each  of  our vehicles wa s, in its own way a jewel.We had a Dolson, the first auto in our town, but we didn't use it on Sunda ys because of its threat to our business. (My dad and Uncle George) h ad a general merchandise and farm implement store.)  Buggy horses wou ld be frightened and farmers were scornful of the puffing, smoking gadge t. In fact, some buggy- riding farmers refused to share the road if they w ere approached from the rear.  The Dolson was our weekday, business car, d riven proudly by Uncle George.For a long time Frank was our sole Sunday transportation. Frank was our ho rse, our OAT-A-MOBILE.  He endured up through my mid-teen years. Three gas hes in the fur of his right flank told of his bronco heritage.  That roman tic ancestry, however, was not otherwise evident in his appearance.  He lo oked old, decrepit and hangdog. Since he refused a checkrein, which wou ld have forced his head high and proud, he drooped his loose-lipped bla ck head and shaggy-maned neck very low, as though he were perpetually look ing for whatever he might find in the dust of a country road. A crackof t he whip was good for only a half-minute acceleration, after which he resum ed his lazy sleep-walking trot.  A piece of paper on the roadside, howeve r, momentarily whisked along by the wind, would startle him and transfo rm him suddenly into a fiery western steed, dancing laterally, and snorti ng into high gear. But only very briefly.Bales of hay went into Frank - energy of a sort - and garden fertilizer ca me out. He was important, and he seemed to know it. That made him at on ce our friend and our enemy. Several times, when we needed his hoof-pow er to take us to church, the barn door was found open and, instead of Fran k, a blank. We would devise new guards for the stable door lock. It beca me a game of wits: horse against man. He would fit his aging teeth in to or behind the mechanism of the lock, open it and trot away. He wasn't m ean or spiteful in this I think just a lover of freedom, and grass.We sold buggies, and whips and blankets and harnesses in our implement bus iness."

Mr. Coonen, known as Pa to nearly half of the Dundas residen ts was the Proprietor of the General Store.  Jim sold groceries, feed f or your animals, coal for the furnace, clothing, and hardware. His fami ly of 7 boys and 5 girls were active in the area.  The boys all partici¬pa ted in the business, acting as sales agents and roofing agents.  In 195 3, as Pa was 84 years old, the store was sold at auction on July24th.To give you an idea of the size of the home place, the property in¬clud ed a 9 room flat upstairs, a 10 room house, a 24'x60' frame building, a 15 x15' frame garage, 15x60' coal shed, a 16x27' feed shed a 18x24' storage s hed and a 20x30' barn. All this was on a one acre of land at the side of t he railroad tracks. A truck scale was located at the back of the store. Y ou did not have any prob¬lem finding a beer in Dundas with a bar on eith er side of the Coonen General Store. Dundas is not a large populated plac e, but a small crossroads. Back in the early part of the century, its' pop ulation  was primarily Coonen."

By Patty Fisher Mercury News<br />
Article Launched: 08/20/2007 01:33:53 AM PDT<br />
Mary Solie is a knitting machine.<br />
She spends several hours each day on the ""knitting couch"" in her sunny Palo Alto living room, turning out multicolored afghans, the kind you want to curl up in to watch TV or wrap around a sleeping child.<br />
Solie, who's 86 and has been knitting since she was a girl, went into afghan production decades ago. She has made afghans for her three children, her five grandchildren and her three great grandchildren. She has made them for friends and neighbors.<br />
In 1993, when everyone she knew had all the afghans they could possibly use, she started knitting them for the patients at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, and then for the families who stay at the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford while their children are in the hospital. So far, she has donated more than 700 afghans, including a few in red, white and blue made specially for firefighters after Sept. 11.<br />
""I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have my knitting,"" she said. ""Go out of my mind, I guess.""<br />
I stopped by to see Solie last week, after a friend of hers told me about the afghan operation. I had to meet this woman, who has given so much of her time and talent to so many people.  She had just delivered a load of 10 afghans to Ronald McDonald House, so she didn't have very many on hand. But she showed me a green one, in a pattern of alternating squares of knit and purl stitches, that she had made several years ago for her late husband, Allen.<br />
""In the evening, he'd sit with his crossword puzzles and I'd knit,"" she said. ""It was so relaxing.""<br />
Cheery stripes<br />
I asked her to show me a work in progress, so she sat down on her knitting couch, not to be confused with her ""reading couch"" across the room. She picked up a half-finished blanket in cheery lavender and yellow stripes.<br />
It takes Solie about 10 days and two pounds of yarn - $12 worth - to make an afghan. She knits for a couple of hours in the morning after breakfast, in the evening when she's watching TV and in the middle of the day ""when I'm avoiding the things I should be doing."" Her granddaughter has been after her to knit sweaters, but she prefers to stick to afghans, which don't require that much concentration.<br />
""You don't have to count stitches,"" she said, as her graceful fingers turned out row after perfect row. The only tricky part is making the stripes. She showed me how she ties the two different colors of yarn together and then weaves the loose ends back into the row so they don't show.<br />
Gifts for families<br />
Pat Tamaras at Ronald McDonald House said Solie's afghans make great gifts for families who stay at the house, especially those with babies.<br />
""We accept them graciously,"" Tamaras said. ""In fact, we have a whole closet full of them."" When I told Solie that Ronald McDonald House had a stockpile of her afghans, she looked troubled. ""I must be giving them too many,"" she said.<br />
Does that mean it's time to cut back on production? Hardly.<br />
""I think I just need to find a new place to donate them,"" she said to me. ""Do you have any suggestions?"" I thought about the homeless shelters I've visited over the years, the group homes and battered women's shelters. I could imagine how delighted a homeless mother would be to wrap her child in one of Solie's lovely afghans.<br />
So I called Kristin Chandler at InnVision, which runs the Opportunity Center in Palo Alto and an emergency shelter for families in Menlo Park. She said she'd be more than happy to take Solie's excess inventory.<br />
""The families who come to us have very little of their own, so we welcome donations,"" she said. ""Afghans are always special - especially if they are handmade."""

Appleton fabricator finds success in both product prototypes and BMX parts<br />
<br />
By Maureen Wallenfang • Post-Crescent staff writer • July 20, 2009<br />
<br />
<br />
Q How many companies do you have?<br />
<br />
A I have two. I started Richmond Technologies in 2001. I started my BMX company, Trick Bike Co., in 2007. Everybody refers to it by the primary brand, Hutch Hi-Performance BMX.<br />
<br />
Q Prior to all of this, what were you doing?<br />
<br />
A I'm originally from Appleton and went to NWTC for industrial prototyping. I went into CNC machining of early product development and prototyping. Large companies that typically design their own products will create data or prints of new concepts and then we're the first ones who make a physical prototype that they can test.<br />
<br />
Q What kinds of things?<br />
<br />
A Mostly medical, consumer, technology and industrial products. After graduating in 1990, I went to Minneapolis, which is a hotbed of product development, especially medical. There was a big boom in technology that the machine shops saw at that time. They were using PCs and software combining with machine tool technology. I was right at the beginning of all of this. At the time, there were no instructions on using the software. You had to figure it all out. After eight years in Minneapolis, I took a job in California working directly for Surfcam, one of the largest CAD/CAM software companies in the world. The three years I spent there was part of the tech boom era. My job was to support the product. I had flown all over the world for them. We supported many high-profile customers such as NASA and most of the Winston Cup race teams.<br />
<br />
Q Why did you leave that?<br />
<br />
A In my last six months, they allowed me to telecommute, so I moved back to Appleton. I said I'd rather live back here because of the cost of living. During those months, I was starting to go on my own, buying equipment and machines. I could see the writing on the wall. When the tech bubble burst, I was laid off, but it was the right time. I was going back to hands-on making of the prototypes rather than working in software. It's what I did best and enjoyed most.<br />
<br />
Q What kinds of things are you making here?<br />
<br />
A The work is all highly confidential. It could be a cell phone or a coffeemaker. It could be a medical device. Generally, it's a part of a larger assembly, so I may not always know what it is.<br />
(2 of 2)<br />
<br />
Q Are the customers still there?<br />
Advertisement<br />
<br />
A I haven't cold-called for customers since 2001. Once my customers find me, they are generally repeat customers. I have a small, loyal base. My goal is to provide my customers with accountability, high confidentially, accuracy and most importantly is speed. I turn my quotes within 24 hours. Many times, I complete a job and have it in the customer's hands before other shops even get around to quoting. Certainly, business has slowed down somewhat in this field because of the economy. I actually saw that a year and a half before the rest of the public because I'm so early on product development. The good news is that I'm starting to see that come back.<br />
<br />
Q You also have the BMX business. You bought the rights to the Hutch name?<br />
<br />
A It was the largest of many large companies in the golden years of BMX, from 1980 to 1985. They made a very high-quality product using materials that were unheard of at the time, like titanium and magnesium. As the bicycle industry changed in the late '80s and went overseas, they went out of business. We're seeing a resurgence in the popularity of BMX because BMX racing was in the Olympics in China. I raced as a kid from 1983 to 1987, from age 13 to 17, and decided to try to track down and acquire the ownership and trademark rights to the brand I was most passionate about, which was Hutch.<br />
<br />
Q Do you sell bicycles?<br />
<br />
A I sell bicycle components. Some I make in my machine shops and some I outsource to other machine shops. Original vintage Hutch pedals were $70 to $90 back in the early '80s. It's not uncommon for those vintage pedals to sell for $500 to $900 a set today. I make and sell Hutch pedals that are almost identical in likeness but are about $190. They're very, very popular items. I'm also doing a re-issue of Hutch cranks. The vintage cranks are $2,200 to $3000. I'll have re-issues for $500 to $600 a set. I have people lined up asking me, ""When can I buy?"" from all over the world. They're very popular in the U.S., Australia, Europe and Asia.<br />
<br />
Q Which of your businesses is bigger?<br />
<br />
A Right now, the BMX side. The economy hasn't impacted the bicycle segment in general very hard. People are trying to drive their cars less and they're riding their bikes more. There are a lot of guys just like me in their 30s and 40s who have young kids and they want them to experience BMX racing. Working with BMX is the closest thing I know to the fountain of youth.<br />

He received the Silver Knight Award from St. Norbert College in 1994 and initiated the Multiple Sclerosis Walk in Brown County in 1995 in honor of his daughter Vicki."

LITTLE CHUTE -  It's a symbol of Dutch settlers and ancestors, representing the customs and traditions they established along the Fox River's northern bank.<br />
Little Chute's windmill, though, speaks deeper than history.<br />
It tells just as rich of a story about the contemporary village, its fierce pride and the power of a community to accomplish big things when all eyes are focused on a goal.<br />
""It was time, effort, money and blood, sweat and tears,"" said Jay Van Stiphout, executive director of the nonprofit Little Chute Windmill Inc. ""It was amazing to see how when people come together, through their collaborative effort, a dream can become a reality.""<br />
Residents will gather Saturday for a long-awaited celebration, as the Little Chute Windmill hosts its grand opening. Tours of the windmill at 130 W. Main St. will begin at 8 a.m.<br />
It's not as if visitors would need a street address. The 110-foot structure, which comes with a price tag of $3.5 million, dominates the village landscape.<br />
The journey to today's grand opening started nearly two decades ago with some ""What if?"" wondering.<br />
Don DeGroot, a member of the windmill board and its former president, has been with the project from the beginning.<br />
The first talk of a windmill project surfaced in the mid-1990s, and soon after the village incorporated a windmill into its logo. At that point, dreams weren't quite as big as the landmark that greets visitors today. They talked of a smaller replica that would serve as a welcome sign.<br />
Ideas grew, and deepened, after a 2000 trip to Holland by village leaders. ""What if?"" slowly became ""Why not?""<br />
A nonprofit committee began fund-raising work in 2003.<br />
It was by no means smooth sailing, The recession years slowed efforts as ""pockets closed a little bit,"" DeGroot said. Leaders didn't become discouraged. Though the grand opening came later than expected, it has arrived.<br />
""People are proud of their Dutch heritage, and we want to pass it on for future generations,"" DeGroot said. ""I think that's what's made it successful.""<br />
The windmill itself cost about $800,000. The $3.5 million overall cost includes its base, visitors center and land acquisitions.<br />
""We raised all the money without taxes,"" DeGroot said.<br />
The windmill was built from an 1850s design from the North Brabant province in the Netherlands. It's authentic beyond its specifications, having been built by fourth-generation millwright Lucas Verbij of Verbij Windmill Design & Construction in the Netherlands.<br />
It was built in the Netherlands and assembled here.<br />
The adjoining Van Asten Visitor Center will be operated by the Little Chute Historical Society and feature exhibits about Dutch settlement in the region. The historical society will maintain a historical archive in the center, which will keep the stories of its families readily accessible  -  whether they're Dutch or not.<br />
Virgie Janssen, president of the historical society, said the windmill speaks not only to a community that takes pride in its heritage but wants to share it.<br />
""A lot of people worked hard to put it together, and hopefully it fulfills its purpose to bring people to see what Little Chute is all about,"" she said.<br />
Saturday's festivities also will celebrate the completed remodeling and expansion of Little Chute's village hall, which will have an open house from 1 to 3 p.m.<br />
The windmill is fully paid for, though fund-raising efforts continue to help meet operational costs.<br />
Village Administrator James Fenlon said the grand opening celebration is a testament to community dedication.<br />
""I'm blown away on a daily basis by the dedication of our citizens,"" he said.<br />

Utter 'Nunsense'<br />
University Theatre ending its season with a humor habit By Mary Ann Holley Sheboygan Press staff Anyone who is Catholic, has ever been Catholic or knows a Catholic, m ay as well just surrender to the laughter as University of Wisconsin-Shebo ygan University Theatre presents ""Nunsense,"" the musical comedy that satir izes convent life with an anything-goes sense of fun. This madcap review opens Thursday, April 24, at the university's Fine Ar ts Theatre - converted to an eighth-grade classroom and home to Mount S t. Helen's Catholic school. ""It is the cutest damn thing. It's a lot of fun, and it's big entertainmen t,"" said director Chuck Krebs. ""What's funny is I grew up Catholic - we nt to St. Mary's School my whole life. This stuff gets bred into you. A nd I must say, Sister Patrice wrapped a ruler over my knuckles once or twi ce."" ""Nunsense,"" takes a comical look at the Little Sisters of Hoboken - a cad re of nuns who go virtually unnoticed until one day Sister Julia (Chi ld of God) unwittingly serves tainted vichyssoise and 52 of the sisters d ie of botulism. Even worse, those who survived had only enough cash to bu ry 48 of the dearly departed - the other four are in the freezer. ""Nunsense"" becomes a benefit concert staged by the Little Sisters to rai se money for their proper burial. ""It's hilariously funny, but we see their tender hearts under their starch ed habits,"" Krebs said. ""They are beautiful women underneath it all - nu ns you may recognize."" Characters like Sister Mary Amnesia, the Saint Andrews sisters and a long- lost nun who won the Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes, poke a b it of fun at reverence, singing and tap dancing to tunes like ""Tackle Th at Temptation with a Time-Step,"" and ""Just a Coupl'a Nuns."" The five women who makeup the cast are seasoned actors in community theate r, Krebs said. The Reverend Mother, played by Jean Deltgen Enking - a wom an Krebs calls the ""grand dame"" of community theater - performs with her d aughter, Di Sciarra. The two say they believe they're the only ""only mothe r-daughter 'sister act' in town."" Krebs said his personal stretch for the show was to take on the job of cho reographer as well as his traditional director role. ""I worked with (choreographer) Kristine (Foerster) so much, and watched h er thinking, and thought I ought to try this,"" Krebs said. ""So I felt I ne eded to be over-prepared. I'm dancing around in my living room listeni ng to the music and it was like the choreography choreographed itself."" There are only five women in the show, along with four guys who play in t he band, dressed like monks of course. ""So we've got the brothers in the band and the Little Sisters of Hoboken ,"" Krebs said. Krebs said when spend your childhood at St. Mary's School, you say a l ot of Hail Marys, so to get the cast in the spirit of it all, every day be fore rehearsal they pray. ""Remember how the nuns used to dole out Hail Marys when you did somethi ng wrong?"" Krebs asked. ""I thought the nuns were like the state troope rs of God, and I wanted the cast to understand it all. There are so many p ieces of Catholicism woven into it - both from reverend level and comicall y."" Paul Sucherman is doing the music, and because of his extensive experien ce in the Sheboygan County music scene, Krebs said the theater has gain ed a wonderful pool of musicians to draw from. ""We've built up a good relationship with some wonderful musicians,"" Kre bs said. ""They like us and like performing here, so the music is really fu n."" ""Nunsense,"" is the last show of the season for Krebs and UW-Sheboyga n, so for more than one reason, they're wrapping up with a blast. ""We're so happy about the year we've had and so we're in a celebratory moo d,"" Krebs said ""We're in a dark time right now, with the war going we ll - if there is such a thing. It's like - oh my God -we need to laug h. So we're focusing on the humor, but also the truth."" ""Nunsense"" runs Thursday, April 24 through Sunday April 27 and Thursday, M ay 1 through Sunday, May 4. All performances begin at 8 p.m. except for Su nday matinees at 2 p.m. Tickets are $13 each and may be purchased at the University Theatre Box Of fice (459-6652) Monday through Friday, noon to 6 p.m. For further information, call the UWS Theatre Department at (920) 459-66 77 or email ckrebs@uwc.edu.

"I328912","Depies","Laurie"," ","17 Sep 1971","","21 Aug 2015","Appleton Post Crescent","New Article dated Aug 21, 2015<br />
""23 years now.""<br />
That was the subject of a post Wednesday on the Facebook page of the Town of Menasha Police Department.<br />
Beneath those words was a smiling picture of Laurie Depies, who literally dropped off the face of the earth on Aug. 19, 1992, and hasn't been heard from since.<br />
The brief Facebook post was a grim reminder of one of the most confounding, perplexing and heartbreaking cases in the history of the Fox Cities.<br />
""It's been a long time,"" said officer Jason Weber, who posted the Facebook entry. ""Nothing new has come in on (the investigation into Depies' disappearance). This (post) keeps it on everybody's mind.""<br />
Depies was 20 and living in Appleton when she disappeared after leaving work at the Fox River Mall and arriving at her boyfriend's apartment on W. Wilson Avenue in the Town of Menasha.<br />
She never made it inside. Police were notified. They found her car in the parking lot of the apartment complex, but no sign of Depies.<br />
Twenty-three years later, there still has been no credible sighting of Depies. Her family hasn't heard from her. There's been no phone calls and no activity on her bank account or credit card.<br />
Weber, who was with the Town of Menasha police when Depies disappeared, said his memories of the early stages of the investigation —  which included a busy command post and large-scale organized searches —  are still vivid.<br />
""And the building at 310-320 W. Wilson Ave. still looks virtually the same (as the night Depies disappeared),"" he said.<br />
Weber said the department still gets calls ""periodically"" about the Depies case. The investigation is now in the hands of the Wisconsin Department of Justice.<br />
He hopes that the case is someday solved.<br />
Depies' parents, Mary Wegner and Mark Depies, have the same hope. The pain of waiting to hear what happened to their daughter has been excruciating.<br />
Weber summed it up best in his Facebook post: ""Please keep Laurie in your thoughts and prayers, and let's pray for a resolution.""<br />

Inc. Innovator Update: Stellar Blue Web Design sees good business at end of the tunnel of recession<br />
<br />
By Maureen Wallenfang<br />
Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
<br />
The small Stellar Blue Web Design has grown by leaps and bounds in its first four years.<br />
<br />
But the firm, which could reach a volume of $500,00 this year, still doesn't have an actual office.<br />
<br />
""It's getting close though,"" said Jim Dobinski, partner in the company with Dustin White and Cathy Wunrow. ""We're hiring. We know the growth is going to force us to be more centralized.""<br />
<br />
They still work from their own homes, which has not only has helped with overhead, but also has allowed them great flexibility. But they know the handwriting is on the wall that they have to give up this free spirited existence connected by technology, especially since they've hired three people and plan on hiring two more in programming, design and server administration.<br />
<br />
""We'll try to resist it as long as we can. It will probably be sometime this year,"" said White. ""We want to keep it fun and interactive and keep the passion we had coming into it.""<br />
<br />
The company's partners are positive that they've seen the end of the recession.<br />
<br />
""With the economy turning around, we're getting four or five leads a week. People calling us needing expansion or needing a project done,"" said Dobinski. ""It kicked in in December and has been gangbusters ever since.""<br />
<br />
When Inc. Innovator profiled Stellar Blue in April 2007, it was a startup in existence for a little more than a year. It had 30 clients, and a second-year volume of about $75,000. At that time, just Dobinski was full time, and White and Wunrow were holding onto their day jobs. That changed quickly, and the two partners came on board full-time that year.<br />
<br />
Though they hit the same recessionary speed bump as others in 2008 and 2009, stalling their volume at about $250,000, this year they're poised to double that.<br />
<br />
Since the beginning of the year, Stellar Blue has won a Rising Star award given by the Heart of the Valley Chamber of Commerce and purchased the Web design development portion of Com Resources, another Appleton firm.<br />
<br />
Now, Stellar Blue has 164 clients, with about 130 of them needing active Web site maintenance.<br />
<br />
Sites include features like shopping capabilities, monetary conversion calculators and all sorts of custom applications.<br />
<br />
On Darboy Stone & Brick's site, for example, the company set up an entire design center. ""Say you want to purchase a fireplace, you can choose the different options. At the end it shows your fireplace and all the information. You can print it out and come in and say, 'This is exactly what I want,'"" said White.<br />
<br />
From a client's perspective, Stellar Blue has been attentive and quick.<br />
<br />
""They were small enough where I wasn't a little fish,"" said Gary Vaughan, founding member of Guident Business Solutions, a consulting and management development firm based in Appleton. ""I wanted to be a valued client and get a little TLC. The larger companies have these big corporate accounts, and I didn't want to complete with them.""<br />
<br />
He appreciates that Stellar Blue services were in-house rather than subcontracted out, which he said sped things up.<br />
<br />
Another client, Menn Law Firm in Appleton, was looking for a user-friendly site that could function as a resource for local people looking for legal services. It needed a lot of links and an easy path from its e-mailed newsletter back to the company's site.<br />
<br />
""Stellar Blue has taken it to the next level,"" said partner Bob Duimstra. ""We've gotten a lot of positive feedback on it.""<br />
<br />
Stellar Blue also has walked clients through search engine optimization strategies and the value of social media.<br />
<br />
The next step in most companies' Web site evolution is being able to manage their own content, said White. He has programs to make that work.<br />
<br />
""People want to be in control of their own Web sites. You can create your own blogs, articles, calendars, image galleries and Web pages,"" he said. ""There's no calling your Web company asking for updates. But we're still here to help them out if they need it.""<br />

APPLETON —   Hands from several gray-haired veterans shot up when U.S. Postal Service mail carrier Dave Dreger asked who served in the Vietnam War.<br />
Advertisement<br />
<br />
""They didn't have this when they came home from war,"" Dreger said as dozens of post office employees and honor guards from two local veterans organizations gathered Thursday to honor Dreger and three other mail carriers who served overseas during the war in Iraq.<br />
<br />
Co-workers and city officials honored Dreger of Kaukauna and fellow U.S. Army veteran Mark Klineschmidt of Neenah, along with U.S. Navy veteran Joseph Gayan of Appleton and U.S. Marine Corps veteran Rick Biesterveld of Combined Locks.<br />
<br />
""I'm proud that in this country people can say, 'I support the soldiers even though I don't support the war,'"" Dreger said. ""Pray for the troops and, hopefully, they will be home soon.""<br />
<br />
Mayor Tim Hanna praised the country's men and women for joining the armed services when the country is at war.<br />
<br />
""It's a time of economic stress and uncertainty, but yet we have so much to be thankful for,"" Hanna said.<br />
<br />
David Martin, Postal Service district manager for Wisconsin and Upper Michigan, himself a military veteran, noted the Postal Service has the highest percentage of employees nationwide serving in the military.<br />
<br />
Martin presented an American flag flown in Iraq on Dec. 24, 2005, to the Appleton Post Office ""to represent our freedoms earned due to the efforts of people like these four guys.""<br />

"I6790","Ederer","Micheal Ray"," ","11 Sep 1989","20 Aug 2009","21 Sep 2009","Appleton Post Crescent","Mourning for her son has a Kaukauna mom on a mission to beat childhood cancer<br />
By Cheryl Anderson, Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
There are plenty of times when Chris Ederer cries.<br />
She quietly weeps for her son, Michael, who died of cancer a month ago today at age 19. But for the sake of her family and her own mental health, she keeps busy. She has to.<br />
""Your kids and your family are only as strong as you are,"" the Town of Kaukauna woman said. ""That's my job.""<br />
It hasn't gone unnoticed by her husband, Terry, daughters Kasey, 16, and Justine, 19, family and friends.""She's just been phenomenal through the whole thing for her family and for everybody around her,"" said family friend Bruce Van Boxtel, whose son Rich, 20, was a pallbearer at Michael's funeral.<br />
In remembrance of Michael and to raise awareness, the Ederers are spreading the word about childhood cancer one gold ribbon at a time. Chris in particular is on a one-woman mission to raise the profile of childhood cancer -   the need for research and the need to love and pray for those children going through the same hellish journey her child endured these past three-plus years.<br />
""People need to realize what these kids go through,"" Chris said. ""I can't get Michael back, but I'm going to do all I can to spread the word. We need to find a cure.""<br />
Her car, adorned with a paint job and stickers commemorating area children being treated for cancer, is a moving billboard of sorts, giving all who come upon it a reason to pause.<br />
Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease among U.S. children between infancy and age 15, according to the National Cancer Institute, whose 2008 budget was $4.83 billion. Of that, breast cancer received roughly 12 percent, prostate cancer roughly 6 percent, and childhood cancers roughly 4 percent, according to reports at fundedresearch.cancer.gov.<br />
""There needs to be continued research, even though we've made such progress in the last 40 years in increasing cure rates in childhood cancers and decreasing side effects and long-term effects from treatment,"" said Terri Lewis, a nurse with the Prevea Health Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Clinic at St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay, where Michael was treated.The Ederers' crusade, Chris said, is to make the gold ribbon of childhood cancer as well known as the pink ribbon, the international symbol for breast cancer awareness.<br />
""I'm not knocking pink ribbons. My mom and my mother-in-law are both breast cancer survivors,"" she said. ""But the kids need a little more acknowledgement now.""<br />
Van Boxtel credits Chris Ederer for not only raising awareness about childhood cancer, but also ""helping people that don't even have cancer be more aware of it, and try to prevent it and go in and get checked.""<br />
Michael's story<br />
Much has been written about Michael Ederer, a 6-foot football player and track hurdler at Kaukauna High School who was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma his junior year.<br />
But his story started two years earlier in December 2005 when he went to the doctor with a pain in his side.<br />
""The doctor pushed on it and thought (Michael had) pulled a muscle,"" Chris said. ""Physical therapy was prescribed.""<br />
""Physical therapy"" is a phrase Chris still hates to hear.<br />
""What I know now, I would have demanded (an x-ray),"" she said of her son's initial diagnosis. ""There's something hurting him. …Confirm it.""<br />
A year to the date later, Michael's pain was so bad he was losing sleep at night. He again went to the doctor, and this time an X-ray was performed and showed small, stringy objects hanging down from his rib. A biopsy was sent to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. Two weeks later came the diagnosis of cancer.<br />
Ewing's sarcoma is a rare bone cancer that affects only 150 to 200 cases a year in the United States.<br />
""It's rare, but once it hits your kid it's not so rare anymore,"" Chris said. ""It's your life.""<br />
The cancer was in his ribs and had already spread to Michael's lungs. He had a 10 percent survival rate.<br />
Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery had Michael and his family hopeful he had beat the disease. But the week of his high school graduation in 2008, it returned. And the grueling process began again, but it never changed Michael's disposition.<br />
""He was always a happy go-lucky kid,"" Chris said. ""Even when he was not feeling good or things weren't looking good, he always looked back to Kevin Sharp, a country singer he'd met a couple times, who is a Ewing's sarcoma survivor now of probably 15 or 16 years. … (Michael) would still always say, 'I'm not giving up. They told Kevin Sharp he wasn't going to make it.'""<br />
Though Michael never mentioned dying with his family, he did to his friends.<br />
""He was worried about the girls (sisters Kasey and Justine) being taken care of and dad having a hunting buddy,"" Chris said.<br />
Early in the week Michael died the doctor told the family nothing more could be done.<br />
""So even though he battled almost three years, it went fast,"" Chris said of her son's death Aug. 20. ""I wouldn't of thought he'd be gone now. I thought we'd get one more Christmas at least. I still can't believe he's gone.""<br />
A mother's mission<br />
In the Ederer family's front yard in the Town of Kaukauna sits a large cutout of a gold ribbon Chris designed. There also are dangling gold stars blowing in the breeze, hung before her son's death. They represent the children undergoing cancer treatments at the St. Vincent Hospital Regional Pediatric Center, which works in concert with the Prevea Health Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Clinic in Green Bay. The number 50 has been crossed out and replaced with 49.<br />
Chris sent e-mails to corporations such as Toys 'R Us, Grayco, Crayola, Hershey's, Precious Moments and Kimberly-Clark asking for their support. She's e-mailed Oprah and Dr. Phil, Ellen DeGeneres and Bonnie Hunt, to no avail.<br />
""I can't help but feel unless we get someone to back us, like Deanna Favre (did) with breast cancer or Michael J. Fox with Parkinson's (disease), we will never get enough funding,"" she said. ""It is the most underfunded research there is. We just need more. … Something needs to be done about it.""<br />
Piles of black T-shirts created by Eagle Graphics in Kaukauna lay on a table in the family's garage with the same gold ribbon and slogan, ""Spreading the word one gold ribbon at a time."" The shirts were Chris' idea, and they're offered for a minimal fee to families on Caring Bridge, a nonprofit Web service connecting families and friends of those enduring a critical illness, treatment or recovery. It's on her to-do list to get the shirts in the mail.<br />
Parked in the garage is her red Chevy Impala. From behind it looks like any other car. But from the front it is a conversation starter. Painted in black, the hood is emblazoned with tiny gold ribbons and the names of those the Ederer family met or have gotten to know through Caring Bridge who've either beaten cancer, are undergoing treatment or who've lost the battle. If a child dies, a small, white angel is added.<br />
In the fall sunlight, the car sparkles.<br />
""I think it's very special what Chris is doing,"" said family friend Terry Gussert of Wrightstown, a body shop technician who helped with the car conversion. ""She's dedicated and committed to finding a cure and promoting the awareness of childhood cancer.""<br />
Never forgotten<br />
On Sept. 4, the Kaukauna School District and community paid tribute to Michael at Kaukauna High School's football game against Appleton East. His No. 81 jersey was officially retired before the game, followed by a moment of silence.<br />
Prior to the freshman football game against Neenah Sept. 10, the teams lined up across from each other on their respective 45-yard lines. The captains met at mid-field. The Neenah players had heard Michael's story, took up a collection among the team and presented a donation. In Michael's honor, they would not wear No. 81 for the game.<br />
And the Kaukauna girls volleyball team is wearing gold shoelaces in recognition of September being Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Michael's sister, Kasey, is on the junior varsity team.<br />
About a dozen of Michael's friends showed up at the Ederers' house Sept. 11. Michael would have turned 20. They released balloons in his honor.<br />
""Even those big, sturdy football players stood and watched (the balloons) until you couldn't see them anymore,"" Chris said. "" Then they came in, sat down and played video games just like (Michael) was still here until 12:30 or 1 in the morning.""<br />
For just a moment, the Ederers' world again felt normal.<br />
Additional Facts<br />
Cancer awareness<br />
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Here are some facts:<br />
# Of the 12 most common forms of childhood cancers, leukemias and cancers of the brain and central nervous system account for more than half of new cases.<br />
# About one-third of childhood cancers are leukemias, the most of which in children is acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The most common solid tumors are brain tumors, with other solid tumors being less common.<br />
# In the United States in 2007, approximately 10,400 children under age 15 were diagnosed with cancer and about 1,545 children will die from the disease. Although this makes cancer the leading cause of death by disease among U.S. children ages 1 to 14, cancer is still relatively rare in this age group. On average, one to two children develop the disease each year for every 10,000 children in the United States.<br />

Wright agreed Tuesday night to pay $1,350,000 to the fami ly of a 9- year-old boy who died after being swept into a storm drain duri ng a downpour in 1995.The payment settles a lawsuit that Steve and Mary Elsbernd brought again st the city over the death of their son, Charles.''This was a terrible tragedy for the city and for the Elsbernds,'' said c ity attorney Pete Summe Tuesday night, after the city agreed to the settle ment in a closed session during the city council meeting.''Our heart goes out to them. We're relieved to have this over and the Els bernds can start healing,'' he said.The settlement with the city resolves all issues covered in the suit, sa id Steve Elsbernd. The Kenton County & Municipal Planning and Zoning Commi ssion and the Northern Kentucky Area Planning Commission reached a joint s ettlement a few weeks ago, said Kenton County & Municipal Planning and Zon ing Commission chairman Tim Theissen. He would not reveal the settlement a mount.The Elsbernds had filed suit last year against the city, the planning comm ission and the developer Charles Berling and his company, saying Berling w as negligent in the design of the storm-sewer system in the subdivision a nd the city was negligent for accepting the design.Berling's company settled its portion of the suit previously. Berling wou ld not reveal his settlement amount. ''That was up to the lawyers and t he insurance company,'' Berling said Tuesday night.The defendants had petitioned the court to add 27 neighbors to the lawsui t, saying if a court apportions blame, it should have the option of incl ud ing the neighbors who lived along the storm sewer line.The neighbors were dismissed from the suit some time ago, Elsbernd said.He said he and his wife had been asked not to comment on the suit for seve ral days and preferred not to say anything more.Charles Elsbernd had been playing in a yard on Beaumont Court, near his F t. Wright home, when he was swept through the 18-inch opening of a drain p ipe.The pipe had not been covered by a grate or bar because of the possibili ty the opening would become clogged with debris and worsen flooding proble ms. The city later placed a metal bar across the drain-pipe opening.In June of this year, the Kenton County & Municipal Planning and Zoning Co mmission adopted new safety standards for storm drains in new constructio n. The standards are aimed at making storm-water drains safer in neighborh oods and subdivisions by requiring smaller openings and other safety measu res. The kind of inlet that swept Charles Elsbernd into a pipe is prohibit ed. 1997 Cincinnati Post ; Parents pray son's death a message; By Crystal Hard en, Post staff reporter; Publication date: 08-21-97Charles Elsbernd, who was swept to his death two years ago through a storm -drainage pipe, would have started sixth grade Wednesday at St. Agnes Scho ol in Ft. Wright.But instead of seeing their only son off to his first day of class, Ste ve and Mary Ellen Elsbernd marked the two-year anniversary of his death.At a press conference Wednesday afternoon held in a Covington law offic e, the couple alluded to the sadness of not sending their son to school th is year. But their primary message was that local governments need to ta ke safety more seriously.''It is our hope that this case will get the attention of municipal offici als everywhere and cause them to correct safety hazards similar to the o ne which caused our son's death,'' Elsbernd said.''If this is accomplished, perhaps some other innocent child will be sav ed and some other family will be spared the indescribable agony of losi ng a child.''The Elsbernds blame city officials who knew about problems with the draina ge system where Charles died but failed to fix them.The Elsbernds said they were unaware of the danger before Charles' death.''Charles was playing in what appeared to be a pond of water in a resident ial backyard,'' Elsbernd said. ''The water was calm and there were no indi cations of a submerged drainpipe or any other danger.''The couple sued the city of Ft. Wright and settled Tuesday for $1.35 milli on.In all, the Elsbernds received more than $2.3 million in settlement paymen ts from their lawsuit.In addition to the city, Berling Construction Co. paid $500,000; engine er Jim Berling paid $375,000 and the Northern Kentucky Area Planning Commi ssion and Kenton County plan ning and zoning commission paid $100,000.''Our purpose in pursuing this lawsuit has been to send a loud messa ge to all persons and entities with control over the design, constructi on and maintenance of storm-sewer systems and to bring about change,'' Els bernd said.Flooding in the area was caused by the improper design of the drainage sys tem along a section of Beaumont Court, Elsbernd said. The city knew abo ut the flooding through residents' complaints. One resident even asked th at a cover or grate be in stalled over the opening of the drainpipe yea rs before Charles drowned.Charles died Aug. 19, 1995, when he was forced through the storm-draina ge pipe while playing in a yard during an intense downpour. As much as 2 i nches of rain fell in a 30-minute period, creating a torrent of water rush ing into the 325-foot drainage pipe. It empties into a creek behind Beaumo nt Court.The 9-year-old boy was found about 15 feet from the end of the pipe, wrapp ed around a tree limb in the creek.After his death, the city in stalled a single metal bar in the openi ng of the 18-inch storm drain. Someone subsequently added another bar to t he opening.The Northern Kentucky Area Planning Commission said the drainage pipe th at took Charles to his death met the minimum standards required for the su bdivision. However, the commission set up a committee to determine possib le changes for new subdivisions.In June the Kenton County & Municipal Planning & Zoning Commission adopt ed new standards aimed at making storm-water drains safer in residential a reas by requiring smaller openings and other safety measures.Elsbernd says that isn't enough because the standards only apply to new su bdivisions. Talk from city officials in Northern Kentucky about the expen se of fixing existing storm drainage problems makes him angry.The costs of fixing the system shouldn't outweigh the life of a chil d, he said.The Elsbernds and their attorneys also said residents need to take respons ibility to help solve the flooding problems. They should report hazardo us situations to city officials, consider putting grates over storm drai ns and post signs to warn others of the danger.The city was the last defendant to settle the lawsuit. City officials decl ined comment Wednesday."

Children's theater and reading area will honor a dedicated 'gladiator' for the library<br />
By Ginny Privitar<br />
MILFORD  -  Some people have it  -  an innate generosity of spirit evident to everyone they meet. Gayle Schuster was one of those people.<br />
""Gayle was instrumental in getting support for the library we have now,"" said Betty Hague, a member of the Library Board of Directors and Friends of the Pike County Public Library. ""She persevered and did not give up. She fought like a gladiator to have this building constructed.""<br />
Schuster was a longtime library volunteer and member of the Friends and Library Board. She worked tirelessly to establish the new library before her death in October at age 72. To honor her public spirit, the board plans to create the Gayle Schuster Children's Theater and reading area in her name. It was Schuster's dream to create a theater especially for children.<br />
The new Dorothy E. Warner Pike County Public Library building opened its doors on Sept. 30, 2013. It was preceded by a contentious period when some promoted a grander building that would not fit on the lot set aside for it. A design more in keeping with its surroundings and approved by most residents was ultimately approved.<br />
Hague said Schuster came up with the idea for a stage for children's theater and a circular seating area for storytelling.<br />
""It would be a place that was happy and fun and special for children,"" whom Schuster loved, Hague said.<br />
According to Elspeth Goodin, former President of the Library Board, Schuster was a very positive, hard-working person.<br />
""Gayle was wonderful to know, outgoing and believing in outreach and services for the community,"" she said. ""She was very dedicated to this library and it was her idea to include a Friends' room where the Friends of Pike Library could make available used books for sale.""<br />
The room was officially named the James R. Goldstein Friends of the Library Room. Hardcover books sell for one dollar and paperbacks for 50 cents. In just one year, they've managed to raise $13,000, all of which goes to the library's operations.<br />
Hague misses her friend.<br />
""Gayle and I were not only board members together, but very close friends,"" she said. ""I can't come up with the right adjectives. She was considerate of other people, quiet when she believed in something and she didn't give up and stuck to her guns. She was one of the kindest people I've ever known.""<br />
Both Elspeth Goodin and current Library Board President Kirk Mackey felt an instant connection with Schuster. Mackey said he met Schuster ten years ago, and that she was one of the first people to welcome him. He said he formed ""an instant connection"" with Schuster and her family, thinking, ""This is a person I would like to spend time with, (sharing) the same values and goals.""<br />
A fearless advocate<br />
Mackey said Schuster stayed involved when many others dropped off the board during the controversy surrounding the proposed new library.<br />
""Her motives were never self-serving,"" Mackey said. ""They were always for the betterment of the Milford community, especially the children.""<br />
The library is only a few thousand dollars from its Children's Theater goal. The community has contributed generously. Board members hope they will receive a grant in January 2015 that will enable them to complete the entire lower level and proceed with construction of the theater area. An opening will be created near the circulation desk and a staircase installed down to the lower level. In addition to the stage for the children's theater, there will be audio-visual, recording and sound system equipment. Storytelling, too, will take place, and people from all walks of life will be invited to come and read to the children.<br />

Gail Erasmus Schuster was born Dec. 4, 1941, in Los Angeles. She grew up in Beverly Hills, Calif., and graduated in 1959 from Beverly Hills High School.<br />
According to her son, Evan, she graduated from San Jose State in 1963 and, after her mother died, moved to New York City and briefly worked as a journalist. She worked as an English teacher in the New York City public school system in the 1960s and '70s, and later as librarian for Hunterdon County for the Kingwood Elementary School, High Bridge Middle School and Hunterdon Central High School.<br />
She and her husband-to-be, Richard Schuster, were neighbors in Jackson Heights, Queens. They married in August 1967.<br />
The couple bought a house on Long Island and adopted daughter, Nicolle. A few years later, to their surprise, biological son Evan arrived. The family moved to Twin Lakes in Milford in 1996 and spent 15 years there before moving to Stockton, N.J., in 2012 to be closer to Nicolle and their adopted grandchild, Yue Li, now 4.<br />
Gayle retired as a school librarian from High Bridge Middle School in 1999. After that she substituted for a year and a half at Hunterdon Central High School for a teacher on maternity leave. After her retirement, she spent many years volunteering.<br />
Nicolle and her husband, Scott Belsky, now teach at Hunterdon Central High School.<br />
Evan recalls with amusement the somewhat difficult circumstances of his senior year in high school. ""I had both my sister and mom as teachers there and I couldn't wait to get the hell out of there,"" he said.<br />
Evan now lives in Florida and owns Paramount Training Services, a chain of health care schools in South Florida. He has an adopted daughter, Madelynne, who is 4.<br />
Evan's father, Richard, worked for Dow Jones, near the World Trade Center. He retired in 2001, a month before the 9/11 tragedy. Gayle, who retired earlier, spent much of her time with the friends of the library and her garden club.<br />

Courtesy: CMU Sports Information<br />
            Release: 07/28/2009<br />
<br />
Evers tallied 1,204 kills in her four seasons and is one of just 12 players to post over 1,000 in her CMU career.<br />
<br />
MOUNT PLEASANT -- Whitney Evers became the first former Central Michigan volleyball player in program history to sign a professional contract overseas, agreeing to terms with KBS Volley in the Nationilliga League A in Dudingen, Switzerland.<br />
<br />
She is just the second player in program history to play professionally. Angie Henderson-Montroy played in the Major Volleyball League with the Chicago Breeze.<br />
<br />
Evers became the 12th player in program history to crack 1,000 kills in 2008 and sits eighth in CMU history with 1,204 kills. She's also the only player in the post-rally scoring era to be among CMU's top-10 in solo blocks (64, ninth) and is also the only post-rally scoring player in block assists (366, fourth) and total blocks (430, seventh).<br />
<br />
In addition, Evers ranks fourth in program history with 132 aces.<br />
<br />
""It's exciting to have the opportunity to not only continue my playing career, but also explore and learn about another culture at the same time,"" Evers said.<br />
<br />
Evers is one of a four-person senior class that helped rebuild CMU volleyball and return it to the consistent success it experienced during the late 1970s through the mid 1980s.  The 41 wins over Evers' final two seasons (2007-08) were more than the team had tallied in a two-year stretch since 1984-85 (47) and the 22 wins in 2007 was the first 20-win season since 1985.<br />
<br />
""The Chippewa volleyball family is extremely proud of Whitney and her accomplishments,"" head coach Erik Olson said. ""The next endeavor will be a challenge, but she is ready for it and will do very well. Whitney has a great passion for the game and I'm excited to see how far she can go with it.""<br />
<br />
Evers also helped guide the Chippewas to its first postseason win in 25 seasons, beating Toledo in the opening round of the 2007 Mid-American Conference Tournament. It was a long and difficult path for a quartet of seniors that lost 24 matches (3-24) as freshmen before putting together the biggest turnaround in MAC history as sophomores (17-13, +12.5 games).<br />
<br />
The Little Chute, Wis. native earned first team All-MAC and Academic All-MAC honors in 2008, finishing with 319 kills, a .258 hitting percentage, 33 aces, 204 digs and 74 blocks and graduated cum laude, posting a 3.50 grade-point average with a integrative public relations major. She is just the third three-time All-MAC honoree in school history (first team in 2008, second team in 2006 and 2007). Evers also earned Academic All-MAC honors her senior season.<br />
<br />
""It's really a great honor to represent CMU, to be just the second professional volleyball player from the program and to have a chance to spread the word about their program in any way I can,"" Evers said. ""The university and the volleyball program did a lot for me during my four years in Mount Pleasant, so anything I can do to give a little back is very important to me.""<br />
<br />
""Whitney is a very good volleyball player with a very diverse skill set,"" Olson said. ""She is capable of playing as many as three different positions, and has the self motivation and sense of independence required to live overseas and prepare herself for elite competition. She has what it takes to get it done.""<br />
<br />
Evers leaves for Switzerland in mid-August, with practices set to start later that month. go to http://www.tsvd.ch/volley/default.aspx  for more info."

APPLETON —  When an Outagamie County jury decided the Roman Catholic Diocese of Green Bay covered up a priest's history of child molestation, it sent a message to the rest of Wisconsin, an advocate for sexual abuse victims said. The outcome of Todd and Troy Merryfields' civil lawsuit against the diocese Monday empowers victims across the state to come forward, said Peter Isely, the Midwest director for Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests. For others who have reported sexual abuse by priests, this ""should increase the pressure to bring these cases to a just resolution."" ""That is always something that occurs when this culture of secrecy ... is pierced and opened by cases like this,"" Isely said. Rev. John Feeney molested the Merryfields in 1978, when they were 12 and 14 years old. In 2004, Feeney was convicted of sexual assault of the brothers. After the criminal trial, the brothers said they learned the priest had a history of similar assaults in the 1960s and 1970s that the diocese knew about and hid from parishioners at St. Nicholas Church in Freedom, which the Merryfields attended.<br />
So in 2008, they sued the diocese and now-deceased Bishop Aloysius Wycislo, who was in charge of ensuring priests were fit to serve, for fraudulent misrepresentation and sought unspecified damages. Things got specific Monday, when the Merryfields' attorneys asked the jury to compensate Todd $900,000 and Troy $1.8 million for pain, suffering and medical costs related to the molestation. The diocesan attorney, Patrick Brennan, said if the jury found the diocese guilty, the brothers should be given $100,000. The jury awarded Todd $225,000 and Troy $475,000, but that might be just part of the diocese's bill. On Wednesday morning, the jury will reconvene and hear more witnesses to determine if, and how much, the diocese must pay in punitive damages, which are punishment to deter the organization from committing fraud again. Deacon Timothy Reilly of the Green Bay diocese read a statement outside the courthouse after the verdict, in which he apologized to the Merryfields for the pain they suffered but disagreed with the jury's decision.<br />
The diocese argued the brothers suffered only minor trauma from the abuse and there was not enough evidence to back their claim that Bishop Wycislo knew Feeney had a history of molestation and committed fraud by representing him as safe. ""From the very beginning of the time when this lawsuit was filed against us, our focus has always been on discovering the truth and on achieving justice. If the documents and depositions indicated that there was a legitimate basis for the allegation of fraud against Bishop Wycislo and the diocese, we would not have undertaken the expense and time to so vigorously defend (them),"" Reilly said. The Green Bay diocese sent an email response to the verdict that said it has rigorous policies to ensure children are safe, including background checks on staff and volunteers, barring clergy who have a ""credible allegation"" of child abuse from ministry and mandatory reporting of those allegations to law enforcement. The Catholic church hasn't been held accountable for many past abuses in Wisconsin, Isely said. ""They have enjoyed an extraordinary immunity so this is a really historic, landmark day for the victims and the truth,"" he said. ""This is just one small drop of the deception and the lies and the devastation that has been caused to countless lives in that diocese."" Over the past week, Jeffrey Anderson and John Peterson, the Merryfields' attorneys, called several priests as witnesses. The priests testified there were allegations of inappropriate behavior by Feeney —  that he swam naked with boys and showered with them after basketball games —  long before he assaulted the Merryfields in 1978. Feeney was attending mental health counseling in 1974 after he touched girls inappropriately at a church retreat, Rev. Lawrence Canavera testified. Anderson and Peterson presented a letter forwarded from psychologist Thomas Kelley to the bishop stating under stress Feeney's ""usual controls over sexual impulses may fail and cause some indiscretions."" But the bishop, who died in 2005, said in a previous deposition that if there was merit to complaints of sexual abuse by Feeney, he would have immediately suspended the priest. After the jury deliberated for five hours, Judge Nancy Krueger announced it had reached a verdict. The Merryfields stared quietly at the front of the court, Troy and his attorney fidgeted nervously —  then the jurors filed in and Krueger read the verdict. Four years after they filed the lawsuit, the Merryfields and their attorneys shook hands and hugged in celebration. Troy sat with his arm around Todd, comforting the older brother who had spent most of his life denying the molestation ever occurred.<br />

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports a stranger found Ryan Fieck face down on a running path beneath a concrete wall with a drop of about 10 feet.<br />
The Milwaukee County medical examiner's report says Fieck had been out with friends earlier at a pub crawl. Credit cards and nearly $50 in cash were found in his pockets, along with his cell phone.<br />
His parents, Mark and Lana Fieck, of Appleton, told police that their son was excited about graduating in December and had a few job interviews lined up.<br />
They declined to comment to the newspaper but referred to a statement on a Facebook page created in their son's memory.<br />
""In loving memory of the single person whose contagious, upbeat attitude and hickish humor could put a smile on even the most serious of faces,"" it said. ""You were and will always be remembered as an amazing son, brother, friend, humanitarian, classmate as well as so many other things.

"I322050","Filyes","Lawrence"," ","26 Nov 1915","15 Jan 2005","29 Apr 2003","APC","Just as he's always done, Lawrence Filyes slides onto the stool smack in the center of the counter that runs the length of Rudy's Diner in Brillion.<br />
As usual, Warren Engel, a plumber, sits to his left. And to Engel's left again sits the town's retired postmaster, who insists, ""Oh, just call me Dutch.""<br />
The three have been coming into Rudy's for so long that they can't even remember when it wasn't part of their routine.<br />
""Is it 30 years, 40 years?"" Filyes mused.<br />
""It's good camaraderie,"" said Dutch, nodding. ""And you find out what's new. (We're in) at least once a day ... provided nothing else is pressing. It's a regular routine.""<br />
For more than 60 years, Rudy's Diner has been part of life in Brillion. And now, just as it's always been, it's a meeting place for friends to chat over coffee and a slice of pie, a comfortable spot for families to start the day over bacon, eggs and pancakes, or a welcome waystation for truckers or cyclists to dig into the meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy.<br />
Real home cooking is both a promise and a tradition at Rudy's that apparently transcends time.<br />
""The neat thing about the restaurant is that it's still small and has that small-town flavor and we've really tried to keep the consistency and quality of the food,"" said Rosemary Clarke, who co-owns the place with husband Kevin.<br />
The Clarkes are only the second owners in the eatery's long history.<br />
Rudolph Seljan -- or Rudy -- originally bought the place from his brother, Emil, for $825 back in 1939 when the sign outside said ""hamburgers 5 cents."" His first day of business, he took in $6.50.<br />
He ran ""Rudy's Cafe"" for 50 years before finally turning it over to the Clarkes in 1989.<br />
Talk to anybody about Rudy and it doesn't take long to get the picture.<br />
Rudy was a gruff little man who wasn't afraid to snatch the newspaper out of a diner's hands and shoo him out of a seat if he didn't want anything else and other customers were waiting.<br />
""And you didn't dare sit in a booth unless there were four of you. You just didn't do it,"" Rosemary said.<br />
Rosemary recalled one occasion, when they'd been open about six months, when a man came in and sort of apologetically said, ""I'm really hungry for a hamburger. Do you think it'd be OK if I had one?""<br />
""Of course,"" she told him, somewhat puzzled by his tone. Turns out that Rudy had never liked to make hamburgers because it took too long and he couldn't work the customers through fast enough.<br />
In perhaps cheeky irony, the burgers on the Clarkes' menu are called ""Rudy's Hamburgers.""<br />
But if Rudy's manners may have been rough around the edges sometimes, his food always kept people coming back. It never pretended to be anything fancy but, gosh, it hit the spot.<br />
And that, the Clarkes are proud to proclaim, hasn't changed.<br />
""It's a landmark in this community,"" said Heather Zander, Brillion's community development director. ""Rudy himself was just a neat old fellow and the new proprietors have taken that and gone with it. You know how much weight you can gain just sitting in that place? It's just great.""<br />
In 1993, the Clarkes remodeled, expanding the kitchen and bumping the diner's seating capacity from 27 to 44. To enhance the feel of an all-American diner, existing counter stools were rechromed and reupholstered rather than replaced with newer vintages. An old cooler from the 1930s still stands behind the counter.<br />
""The only time we might have lost a few regulars was when we went non-smoking,"" Rosemary said. ""We were the first restaurant in Calumet County to go non-smoking, back in about 1994.""<br />
Neither Rosemary nor Kevin grew up in Brillion -- Rosemary grew up in Seymour and Kevin hails from Australia -- but the town, its people and their tiny diner have so burrowed their way into their hearts that they can't imagine living anywhere else.<br />
Rosemary was a former schoolteacher and Kevin was a banker in Green Bay when they took over Rudy's place.<br />
""We were raising a young family and we just decided we wanted to get out of the larger city,"" Rosemary said. ""I've always liked cooking, baking and I'd done private catering in Green Bay ... that was the niche that we thought we'd go into.""<br />
""Fourteen years later, we're still hard at it,"" Kevin said.<br />
Typical of a small town, news always travels fast and Rudy's Diner is definitely in that loop.<br />
""We usually hear it here,"" Rosemary said. ""Sometimes it even starts here.""<br />
Neighbors and their comings and goings are familiar. The same goes for customers.<br />
""They'll pull up in the driveway and we'll say, 'Two pancakes and crispy bacon just rolled in,'"" Rosemary said. ""You just get used to what they like. It's almost like an extended family.<br />
""But that's part of the reason we came to a small town because we like that closeness. We like to know the people that live next door or in the town. I think that's the way to raise a family.""<br />
Seljan died in 1993 at age 80 but there are still moments when his ghost lurks around the corner at Rudy's.<br />
""Sometimes we'll yell back and forth and customers will say, 'Boy, it's just like Rudy's here,'"" Rosemary said.<br />
""Rudy was a legend and he was a legend because he had a small little place that served good food ... and he took care of his customers,"" she said. ""In that way, we feel as though we can successfully carry on that whole feel of what Rudy's is all about.""<br />
Just save that center spot at the counter for Filyes.<br />

"I33230","Fink","Helen Ann","Forbeck","7 Dec 1944","14 Jan 2018","3 Jan 2013","beloit daily news","Helen Forbeck is beginning her first day of retirement today after a long career in politics, including most recently serving in the Beloit office of U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin, the newly elected Wisconsin senator.<br />
For nine years, Forbeck was charged with managing Baldwin's Beloit Congressional office. Baldwin was elected to the U.S. Senate in the November election.<br />
""She was just a treasure to work for. In my humble opinion, she stood for the right things, and was consistent yet flexible. I was very proud to work for her. She was a great representative, and she'll be a great senator,"" Forbeck said. ""It's been a pleasure I and appreciate the opportunity to serve.""<br />
As Forbeck focuses on the next stage of her life, she said she will feel freer to speak out publicly on more issues. Although she doesn't plan to run for any local offices, she said she will remain active in helping campaigns and staying true to her convictions.<br />
""I'll be around,"" she said.<br />
Forbeck, 68, said she had considered moving on with Baldwin, but wasn't interested in having to work out of Madison or Milwaukee and the necessary driving associated with it. She decided now would be a good time to catch up with her grandchildren, pursue her love of genealogical research and just have fun.<br />
Forbeck, born Helen Fink, grew up in Menasha and attended college at Marquette, majoring in history and minoring in English and Education. She was a teacher for two years in the Milwaukee area before moving to Beloit in 1970. She was a stay-at-home mom for 12 years while doing substitute teaching and working on Les Aspin's 1982 campaign for Congress.<br />
While raising her family Forbeck was active in the community for years as a Girl Scout Leader, Cub Scout Den Mother, soccer coach, girl's softball coach, and a member of both the Beloit Planning and Beloit Parks and Recreation commissions prior to her service on City Council.<br />
She worked at Rock County Opportunities Industrialization Center for almost eight years as a job developer. From 1991 to 1993 she served as Rep. Les Aspin's ombudswoman, where she managed his district office, represented the congressman at local functions and helped local communities and businesses secure and retain federal resources.<br />
Her experience extended to the Beloit City Council where she served three terms and was elected the first female City Council president. Following her service in his congressional office, Forbeck joined Aspin at the Department of Defense where she served as a special assistant in the Office of the Secretary of Defense in Washington.<br />
after being elected to office herself, Forbeck said she discovered she preferred to work for someone else. She said she admires and respects politicians' commitment to public service, noting that traveling back and forth can be very wearing. Forbeck was particularly impressed with Baldwin's ""grace under fire.""<br />
""She just cares abut people and is a class act,"" she said.<br />
Forbeck said she introduced herself to Baldwin when she was first elected in the late 1990s during a reception. She was drawn to Baldwin's unwavering commitment to civil rights, the environment and health care. Once Forbeck worked for Baldwin, she said she found it to be a family-friendly and supportive office.<br />
""We, in turn, would give her (Baldwin) everything and work hard for her. It was like family,"" Forbeck said.<br />
Although Forbeck enjoyed her years managing Baldwin's Beloit Congressional Office, she is ready to start a new chapter with her family. With two sons, two daughters, and twelve grandchildren, Forbeck will be busy watching sports or leading ice fishing and sledding expeditions, although she's in the ""watching and driving"" phase of participation.<br />
Forbeck is also working on leaving her grandchildren a legacy of family research after travels to Holland and Ireland to unearth more family history. She's already discovered an ancestor in the Civil War as well as Vinkenvleugel, an early predecessor to the Fink family. Forbeck plans to continue her adventures seeking out clues to her family's past to hand over to the future generations."

Editor Western Catholic News:    A monument was erected in memory of John Fox in the Catholic cemete ry here on July 15, 1890.  Holy Mass was celebrated for the repose of h is soul on the same day, as had been done also on the anniversary of his d eath, by the well-loved Rector of the parish, Reverend A, Masslehein. T he monument stands 10 feet high, of Brandon Italian Marble, cottage styl e.  A heavy Roman Cross surmounts this tribute to a Catholic father. It w as made in the shop of Thomas Flatley and Charles Goetzinger, Chilton Wisc onsin, and cost $200.00.  John Fox died on July 2, 1889, in his sixtieth y ear.  Although sick only two days, death did not find him unprepare d.  He received in full consciousness the last sacraments of the holy chur ch.  The parish of Doon, Carnahala, County Tipperary, was his Irish hom e, where on St. John's day, June 24, 1830, he was born.  He was the elde st of four sons, His three brothers; Patrick of Holland, Wisconsin; Thom as and William of Butler County, Nebraska, and his wife and seven childr en survive to pray for him.The Fox family came to the United States in 1850.  They lived for some yea rs in the States of New York and Ohio.  The subject of this notice marri ed Miss Mary Keating, of Templetuohy, County Tipperary at Elibans, in t he latter State.  The year 1865 found them in the present family homestea d.  John's first farm consisted of eighty acres of wild land, but he own ed nearly 500 acres of improved soil when the grave claimed him. He lov ed farming and constantly studied to acquire a knowledge of it's best meth ods.  American citizenship was highly prized, and his native country fond ly remembered, by this skillful farmer.<br />
Thomas and Bridget Fox are buried in the old part of the parish graveya rd and so are Reverend James Lane, the founder of the parish, and Revere nd William Herbert, also a former pastor, and well kept are their graves.<br />
The influence of John Fox contributed largely to the prevalence of devoti on to the Sogarth Aroon.  He could not see how a man could sincerely profe ss the Catholic faith and belittle the priest. He inherited the religio us traditions of two countries, his own gallant Tipperary and conservati ve Limerick.  His mother was a Miss Ryan Rill of Murroe, a village that co nstantly gazes on the historic Galtee Mountains and enviously looks down f rom the hillside of ""Sweet Cappemore"".  His faith partook of the durabili ty of Tipperary rock and the richness of the Limerick soil.<br />
Mr. Fox esteemed his church and was seen in his pew every Sunday and Ho ly Day of obligation.  When the family sitting became too small for his ho usehold he rented a second pew and took care that every member of it occup ied his allotted place in the church.  The house was locked and no one rem ained at home during the one and only Sunday Mass of the parish. He did n ot believe in the false economy of some parents who allow their childre n, from want of pew room to clog the church doors or intrude on others.  T he loss of faith is too often the said results of this parsimony.  Economi cal he was but he spared in another quarter where no one experienced the i nconvenience save himself and his concurrent family.<br />
Our departed friend loved to hear sermons and often received the holy sacr aments during the year.  The beads were recited in his house every nigh t.  His cordial sympathy with the church in the efforts to promote tempera nce was manifest.  Whether others encouraged or, through avrices or fraili ty, checked the progress of sobriety, John Fox remained a teetotale r.  He could not do too much for his friends, and would sooner forfeit a r ight than quarrel with a neighbor.<br />
Pretence and fuss were foreign to his nature.  The visit of a Tipperary em igrant lit up his countenance and brought out the characteristic trai ts of Irish patriotism and he would talk over old times and frien ds as if things of yesterday.  Children's love built him a monument, but h is own maxim and piety continued through the years of his stewardship, con structed for him a golden memorial.<br />
His children live on the cultivated broad acres which his faith and indust ry procured and attend their religious duties as in the days of their belo ved father.  No marble could so honor his name.  May he rest in peace.   Acquinas"

Frambach was instrumental in bringing an advanced groundwood process to Wisconsin in 1872 which helped accelerate the US paper industry. He obtaiined fourteen U.S. patents. One interesting part of his career was being the manager for paper making exhibit at the Chicago Columbian Exposition of 1893e.<br />
<br />
John Swanson was a famous professor at the Institute of Paper Chemistry, where he served from from 1941 to 1982. (The Institute later moved to Georgia and became part of Georgia Tech as the Institute of Paper Science and Technology.) He was an expert in the chemistry of surfaces and colloids and used his expertise to help advance papermaking from a mysterious art into a science.<br />
<br />
Gutenberg, I understand, was some guy from Germany who had something to do with early non-electronic media (maybe early precursors of the Kindle and iPad?), apparently using some kind of printing technology to create reading material that had to be physically picked up to be accessed. Go figure. Well, I guess that's cool, too.<br />
<br />
There are two other inductees: Friedrich Gottlob Keller (1816-1895, Germany) who helped develop ways to use trees for papermaking (it was his process that Frambach brought to Wisconsin and further refined), and Jasper Mardo (1921-1997, Vancouver, Canada), a leader and educator who brought about many advances in knowledge and practice in papermaking."

Mackville Pioneer Hale And Hearty After Long And Active Life --<br />
By W. F. Winsey<br />
After working in the garden all morning, Michael Gainor, 87 year old Mackville, complained to the writer a few days ago, that he was getting a trifle weaker day by day and less able to stand physical exertion than when he was young.<br />
""Are you not in good health"", inquired the writer.<br />
""Yes,"" was the prompt reply, ""I have a good appetite, sleep soundly and was never ill a day in my life.""<br />
""If that is the case and if you would go easy on that work in the garden, you might hold your own and even notice some improvements."" suggested the writer. ""You are no spring chicken and you should not try to keep pace with the young birds.""<br />
After the introductory dialogue was completed in the Gainor home, Mr. Gainor for the entertainment of his guest sang a good old Irish song. Stimulated by the words and the music, weariness was displaced by animation. At this point, Mr. Gainor declared that he had sung Irish songs and played the violin in his home and at parties and dances for the last fifty years.<br />
In October, 1877, soon after he was married to Johanna Barry while working for the Barrys near Mackville, Mr. Gainor bought a stock of goods in Chicago and opened up a general store and saloon in Mackville.<br />
2 FAMILIES IN VILLAGE<br />
At the time Mr. Gainor started in business, he had, as competitors in the saloon business, Geo. Rabb and Edward McGillan. There were only two families living in the village and David Barry who cut down the first tree in the town of Center was living to the north of the village. Barry settled in the town of Center in 1848. A log church, built by Peter Hephner, who settled in Mackville in 1849 and who donated the land for a new church and the cemetery, was standing when Gainor opened up his doors for business, but the frame of the new church had been put up.<br />
Mr. Gainor was a large contributor to the building of the new church and new sisters' house and helped to build them. As soon as he could, he bought the old house, formerly occupied by the sisters, moved it to an acre of ground and is now living in the house and working the land.<br />
After enjoying a very prosperous business for a long term of years, and setting aside a snug little fortune, Gainor rented his store to Philip Barry in 1893, bought five houses in Appleton and retired from business. His store burned to the ground in 1898.<br />
To rebuild he sold his five houses in Appleton, moved back again to Mackville and when the new building was ready for occupancy, opened up a new general store and saloon. He continued in business till nine years ago when he sold out to his son Joseph and retired for the second time.<br />
In 1847, when the famine in Ireland drove a number of emigrants to America, the Gainor family and a party of relatives and friends started from the city of Limerick for Quebec. In the Gainor family were father and mother, Mrs. Patrick Patten, Appleton, and Mrs. John Barry. They went to Canada to join an uncle who had been writing and inviting them to come. The party landed at Montreal, stayed there a few weeks and proceeded by team and boat to Branford, Canada, where the elder Gainor died.<br />
After the death of the father the family moved to Norwich township later to Woodstock and remained in Canada until October 1849. After the mother had married Phillip Greening, a blacksmith, Thomas Hays, an uncle of the Gainors who was a builder of locks on the Fox river, invited the family to come to the Fox river valley. The Gainors set out by boat from Canada for Green Bay. Greening got work shoeing horses for the government and the family lived in Green Bay until 1851.<br />
Later the family located on a wild tract near Chilton in February 1857. There were no trees cut on the land and no buildings when the family arrived to take possession.<br />
After clearing and improving the farm, in 1863, when the war of the rebellion was on, the family sold out and shipped the household goods and located on a farm near Prairie du Chien. In 1868 the Iowa farm was disposed of and the family moved to Fond du Lac, settling on a farm of 120 acres four miles southeast of the city.<br />
The family remained on the latter farm five years when a sale was again made and another farm of 260 acres was bought at Seven Mile Creek. Later the family again sold out and returned to Chilton.<br />
When Mr. Gainor, subject of this sketch, returned to Chilton he worked at the carpenter trade several years before starting for Mackville. He was married in Chilton and the newly wedded pair naturally gravitated toward their relatives, the Barrys in Mackville.<br />
Mr. Gainor was born in Tipperary, Ireland in 1836, was married to Johanna Barry in Chilton in 1876. Mrs. Gainor died in 1895 and he was married again in 1895 to Helen Holsknecht, still living. The children are, Mrs. Paul Schroeder, Appleton; George, Oregon; Joseph, Mackville, Mrs. Wyenberg[Weyenberg], Apppleton; Mrs. Edward Verkeuhlen, North Dakota; Mrs. Louis Hartl, Seymour; Victor, living with his parents.<br />

Still in love after all these yearsThe Anniversary Mass brought together more than 28,000 years of marriage.<br />
By: Heather Felton   (Venice - Feb. 20, 2003) The Epiphany Cathedral was packed and ne ar to bursting as couples from across the 10-county diocese to celebrate t heir marriages and renew their vows. A total of 545 couples attended, brin ging 28,851 years of marriage to the celebration on Saturday, Feb. 1 ""Thank God for the example of all of you good people,"" said Father Willi am Adams, the homilist for the 19th annual event. ""You wouldn't be he re if it weren't for your strong love and good example.""He spoke about many older couples he knew and told their stories of how th ey met and why their marriages are so successful.""We are forever young and we like to remember good things,"" he said.During the Mass, sponsored by the diocesan Family Life Office in the Pasto ral Ministries Department, the couples were recognized in groups by the nu mber of years married. There were 23 couples celebrating their silver anni versaries, 186 celebrating gold anniversaries and 336 with more than 50 ye ars married.The final couple introduced were Fay and Wilbur Conklin, married 74 yea rs and the longest married couple at the Mass.Bishop John J. Nevins, the presider at the Mass, went down to meet them wh ere they sat in the first row wearing matching outfits of light blue. He l ay his hands on their heads and blessed them, hugged them and then told t he congregation that the blessing and hugs were for them all.The Conklins, of Bonita Springs, attend St. Leo Parish. They met at a dan ce hall in Oshkosh, Wis., in 1928 where the diminutive Fay was dancing wi th friends. That was how she caught Wilbur's attention.""I'd seen her on the floor dancing with another girl,"" he said, sitti ng at home a few days before the Anniversary Mass. ""The girl she was danci ng with was so much taller than her…. She was short and cute.""<br />
Fay cut in.<br />
""I wasn't as bad looking as I am now,"" she joked.The couple ""went together"" only a few months before they were married M ay 16, 1928. They were 20 years old.In the early years of their marriage, things were tight. It was during t he Depression and jobs were hard to find. Wilbur worked at a tire compa ny repairing and selling tires for many years while Fay stayed home with t heir children.""Everybody had hard times,"" she said. ""It didn't hit us alone. It hit ever ybody. It was a bad spell.""Now 94, the couple have had four children, two boys and two girls, and exp erienced the death of their eldest son. Wilbur served in World War II alth ough illness kept him from serving overseas. He also converted to Catholic ism from Methodist without telling Fay, as a surprise to his Catholic wif e.The couple lived in Wisconsin for most of their lives although they travel ed a great deal and made winter trips to Florida for many years before fin ally settling here with their daughter, Nancy.They attribute their continued marriage to just getting along.""We just seem to click,"" Wilbur said. ""We liked each other and got along g ood together."" ""It's always been pretty good,"" Fay added. ""He's always be en good to me.""<br />
Wilbur jumped in.""She's not combative,"" he said. ""She won't get mad at anything.""<br />
Fay laughed at this.<br />
""We never argued much,"" she said. ""We never cared to argue.""The couple agreed that the hardest time married was during the Depressi on years and the best time is now. They enjoy reading and going to concert s. And each morning the couple goes for a walk together.""We don't have to work, we can go wherever we want to go,"" Fay said."

Frank Goetzman aged 16 years third hand on the No. 3 machine at the Thilmany Pulp and Paper mills, suffered a very painful injury Monday night about 11 o'clock, by which his right thumb was completely severed between the first and second joints and about six inches of the cord torn out with it. Young Goeztman was trying to throw out the friction clutch of the rewinder when his hand slipped from the lever and caught in the gearing, causing the accident. The boy showed remarkable nerve, as he never uttered a cry of pain or shed tears, but on being taken away from the machine fell in a dead faint. Will Pahl, the machine tender, found the severed member hanging in the machinery by the cord, and brought it along to the doctors office to show the full extent of the injury. Dr. Blair dressed the hand."

<br />
APPLETON - It's fast. It's old school. It's easy on the budget.<br />
And what's not to love about a box of hot, crispy French fries or a tub of perch?<br />
J.D.'s Drive-In, hitting its 50th anniversary this year, isn't doing just one thing to compete in a world of dominant national fast food chains.<br />
It's doing a lot of little things.<br />
Like supporting Little League teams and satisfying cravings for curds and perch.<br />
J.D.'s is a humble burger-and-fries joint at 1939 E. John St., tucked into one of Appleton's modest east side neighborhoods. Anyone outside the area probably hasn't heard of it. It's not near the highway.<br />
But it's a locally owned fast food institution that started up just one year after Appleton East High School opened its doors nearby.<br />
It's now on its third generation of customers, many of whom are intensely loyal to this homegrown business.<br />
""It's his favorite restaurant,"" said Debbie Seidel of Appleton, having lunch Tuesday with 5-year-old grandson Landon. ""I've been coming here for as long as I can remember. I used to bring his mom here.""<br />
""I like J.D's food, and J.D. is a great guy,"" said customer Jay Romenesko of Appleton, who stops in twice a week for lunch. ""Their family had a farm in Darboy. I'm from Darboy. If I'm going to go for fast food, I go to J.D.'s.""<br />
Who is J.D.?<br />
While many businesses make it to the 50-year milestone, very few can say they still have the original owner at the helm.<br />
This one can.<br />
J.D., or Joseph Dominic Grishaber III, 71, is still here full time.<br />
""He's a genuine Appleton jewel,"" said customer Jim Krueger, who started coming to the drive-in in 1968 after his drivers' ed class at Appleton East.<br />
J.D. is clearly uncomfortable with accolades.<br />
""This business wasn't built by one person,"" he said.<br />
He deflects credit for the drive-in's success, saying repeatedly that it's due to his wife of more than 40 years, Pam, and his five kids. Joe IV, Therese and Jude continue to work here full time.<br />
""Without them I'm nothing,"" he said. ""Especially the last 10 years. I'd probably be gone.""<br />
But he's the one who refuses to take vacations, and sometimes comes in at 5 a.m. to fix a troublesome machine. He doesn't have outside interests, owing to all of those years of working 90-hour weeks and being an on-site owner.<br />
""You can't just hire people to do it for you. It takes blood, sweat and tears to run a business,"" said Pam, who works here every lunchtime and plenty of suppers. ""There's a certain dedication that not everyone is comfortable giving.""<br />
It was only with a priest's absolution, back in 1999, that J.D. decided to cut back from seven days a week to six. He closed the drive-in on Sundays so he could go to Mass and spend time with his kids.<br />
""The first year, and every year since, our sales were better than being open seven days a week,"" he said. ""The good Lord took care of it.""<br />
He has also since cut back to just 50 hours a week. Give or take.<br />
Customers know that J.D. has supported the community by donating money and sponsoring countless boys, girls and adults sports leagues and teams for decades. Team pictures are on the walls.<br />
After their fourth child was diagnosed with diabetes 27 years ago, Pam and J.D. became heavy supporters of the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.<br />
""We look at our customers more as friends. They've gotten to know us and we've gotten to know them,"" said Pam. ""They have children with health issues too, and whenever they have a cause, they know we'll donate.""<br />
<br />
Competition<br />
As far as competition goes, J.D. is still willing to put up his dukes.<br />
Hardee's moved in down the street years ago. McDonald's opened a branch years ago on the way toward Kimberly. Both were expected to siphon off his east side and Kimberly customers, but that didn't happen. Both of those places eventually closed.<br />
Plenty of national and regional fast food chains have put locations on the east and south side, but they haven't sunk this one-branch burger joint on John Street.<br />
""It boils down to quality, service and price,"" J.D. said. ""You've got to be competitive. Price means I'm competitive. I won't sacrifice quality or service.""<br />
The most popular combo, a loaded ""double cheese double burger"" with a generous medium fry and a drink, is $5 including tax. The menu board lists a $1.27 burger and $1.47 cheeseburger.<br />
He doesn't disclose annual sales, but says the business is ""very successful.""<br />
As for the future, J.D. said he's certain the restaurant will go forward if he decides to retire someday. He's had offers. Plus, son Joe has shown an interest in taking over with the backup of siblings Jude and Therese.<br />
<br />
Fast facts you may not know about J.D.'s<br />
1) J.D. is Joseph Dominic Grishaber III.<br />
2) Two-thirds of J.D.'s business comes in via the drive-thru window.<br />
3) A county board wasn't in favor of the drive-in being built back in 1968. That meant J.D's father, Joe Grishaber, had to start building the drive-in before J.D. returned home from his Air Force duty in Japan. ""Once the hole was dug, they couldn't stop the zoning. It was already started,"" said J.D. The drive-in was called J.D.'s from the start. J.D. returned in November from his tour of duty and took over. He paid his parents back for the building in 1976.<br />
4) The menu includes a box of fries ($5.89) that serves a family of eight, a box of 100 curds ($16.99), box of eight burgers ($9.29), perch tub ($43.41) and cod tub ($36.91). All are popular with big families, said Joe's son Jude.<br />
5) Cauliflower? Seriously? It's on the menu, but it's batter dipped and fried, and customers like to dip it in cheese. So much for the illusion of a healthy food. J.D.'s sold salads for three years, but discontinued them. ""They weren't selling. We were taking them home and eating them,"" said Pam.<br />
6) The Grishaber name is everywhere on Appleton's south and east side. J.D.'s grandfather's generation had grocery stores. His father's generation were tavern owners, including Flateau, Club Terrace and Sugar Bowl. Joe Grishaber's Tavern, owned by J.D.'s father, was next door to J.D's. It was taken over in the '60s by J.D.'s brother, Hank, and is called Hank and Karen's. Tom Grishaber, founder of Tom's Drive-In, was J.D.'s father's cousin. Grishaber Service is a car repair place down the road that's been around so long the phone number on its sign still gives the 414 area code.<br />
7) It's normal to serve 200 orders at lunchtime. But lunch isn't the busiest time. ""Suppers are busier than hell,"" said J.D. ""Larger than lunch.""<br />
8) J.D.'s is a drive-in, but never had car hops.<br />
9) The drive-in held Graffiti Nite, a car show, for eight years. It was discontinued because it got too big.<br />
10) Pete Rose signed the hat on the wall, but he never came into the restaurant. One of J.D.'s friends got it signed for him.<br />
11) Kimberly High School students are fans, and Thursday is their ""J.D.'s Day.""<br />
12) What J.D. learned over 50 years: patience. ""There have been some terrible years, but that's normal. As my brother Hank always says, 'Mellow out.' You just have to take care of what's in front of you.""<br />
13) J.D.'s receipts read, ""Thanks and God Bless You."""

Scott Graykowski shared this information, Train Kills Six In Auto. Boy, Only Survivor of Wisconsin Crash, May Die<br />
Special to The New York Times, New London, Wis. - Sept. 1. - Six persons were killed and a seventh probably fatally injured this afternoon when a southbound Chicago & North Western passenger train crashed into an automobile on a county grade one mile north of here. The car was carried 100 yards down the track. William Haen was driving.<br />
The dead are:<br />
Haen, William, 40 years old, of Sheboygan, Wis.<br />
Haen, Mrs. William, his wife.<br />
Haen, Raymond, 16 years old, a son.<br />
Haen, Ruth, 3 years old, a daughter.<br />
Koene, Peter, 35 years old, of Sheboygan.<br />
Koene, Mrs. Peter, 33 years old, his wife.<br />
The injured person is William Haen, 18 years old, fifth member of the Haen family. According to policemen of this city who rushed to the scene, all but two of the dead had expired when the ambulances arrived. These two were Mrs. Haen and Peter Koene. They were taking the last sacrament from a priest who was a passenger on the train. Within an hour after the accident they died.<br />
William Haen was taken to a hospital in Appleton, 12 miles south of here. Physicians said there was little hope for his life.<br />
Note: I was told of this incident by my mother. During the course of my research of the Haen/Rammer/Thiel families Sheboygan County, I decided to find out the facts. It took me a while to locate this because no one recalled the location of this incident! Of all sources, I located this in The New York Times, apparently an often over-looked source for genealogists. William Haen, Sr. & Mrs. Peter Dorothea Koene were siblings. They were going to Eland, Jct., Wis. to visit thier brothers, Frank & John. It has been said that William Haen, Jr. was driving the car."

A movement has been started in Little Chute that promises to develop into quite a sensational affair before it closes between the local priest and the young people and the dance hall owners. Some time ago Joseph VanCamp, who has a dance hall on Main Street, gave out notices that he was going to start up evening dancing parties at his place. This was his decision as the young people felt that Little Chute should be entitled to maintain social dances in the evening as well as other towns. It is claimed that Little Chute is the only place in the state where young people were thus restricted. Hearing of the proposal John Hammen, proprietor of the Hotel Hammen, also announced his intention to follow suit and both had engaged music for their opening parties. It came to the attention of Father Knegtel, pastor of St. John's church. St. John Church has never allowed dancing in the parish since it was organized by Father T. J. Vandenbroek in 1831. Father Knegtel has announced that he will resign before he will allow the rules of the church so long established to be broken and has served such notice on the owners of the two dance halls."

Former Mountlake Terrace mayor, psychologist remembered<br />
By Kristi O'Harran<br />
Herald Writer<br />
Sen. Henry M. ""Scoop"" Jackson was friends with Dr. Frank Hammer.<br />
In 1962, when Dr. Hammer was the mayor of Mountlake Terrace, Jackson dropped by for the dedication of a new civic center in town.<br />
""Scoop came over to our house,"" said Frank Hammer's son, Dan Hammer. ""They smoked pipes together.""<br />
Frank Hammer was the mayor of Mountlake Terrace from 1960 to 1964, when the town still had dirt roads. He also served on the city council for a decade.<br />
Being a mayor near Seattle was a big deal, Dan Hammer said. They got to sit on the barge at hydroplane races.<br />
Dr. Hammer was elected mayor because he was even-handed, said Phyllis Fiege, who lived in Mountlake Terrace during his term. Her husband, Gene Fiege, served on the city council.<br />
During Hammer's term as mayor, his first wife, Margaret, a community activist, was killed in an automobile accident. Hammer became a single father with four children, Fiege said.<br />
He later remarried and raised two more children.<br />
Dr. Frank Jorgen Hammer, 92, of Arlington, died March 22 of heart failure. He was born in 1918 in Appleton, Wis. He graduated from Lawrence University in Appleton with a degree in chemistry and received his doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of Chicago.<br />
Hammer was an outstanding college athlete in football, basketball and track. As a halfback, his leather helmet, prescription goggles and running prowess earned him the nickname ""Man from Mars.""<br />
Using his speed, he created a famous ""Hammer Scamper"" trick play.<br />
""He scored a bunch of times on it, said his nephew, Dean Smith. ""He could run a 100 yard dash in 10 flat.""<br />
Hammer was a diehard Green Bay Packers fan and was known to wear a cheese-wedge hat in honor of the Wisconsin team.<br />
But he also was a Seattle Seahawk charter season ticket holder.<br />
A music lover, Hammer was an Eagle Scout and a leader in DeMolay. He was president of his Beta Theta Pi fraternity and sang in college choirs.<br />
In college, he listened to Les Brown and His Band of Renown on the radio.<br />
The retired lieutenant colonel served in the U.S. Army for 28 years including stints during World War II and the Korean War. He was stationed on Guam, in Osaka, Japan, and was chief psychologist at Madigan Army Hospital at Fort Lewis.<br />
""We'd go to Fort Lewis when we were kids,"" his son said. ""We'd go to the Officer's Club and drink Shirley Temples. We got to swim at the officer's beach. He dealt with guys who were shell-shocked during the Korean War.""<br />
His father still maintained an office in Arlington and did private practice therapy, counseling and testing. He organized employee assistance programs for major companies, was a psychologist for the Seattle Police Department and taught at Edmonds Community College and the University of Puget Sound.<br />
Dr. Hammer is survived by his children, Laurel Hammer; Dan and his wife, Terry; Frank and his wife Mary; Marina and Melanie Hammer; grandchildren include John and his wife, Grace; David, Anna, Bret, Janelle and Leah; and three great-grandchildren, Hailey, Emma and Justus.<br />
He was preceded in death by his oldest son, Mark.<br />
All of the Frank children earned college degrees.<br />
""He asked us what college we were going to,"" Dan Hammer said. ""It wasn't a matter of whether or not we were going to go.""<br />
Laurel Hammer said her father was a consultant at Valley General Hospital in Monroe.<br />
""He would run into AA people he knew,"" she said. ""He would simply say their paths had crossed.""<br />
He was a proud, patient and kind father, who cooked pancakes on Saturday mornings and glazed ham with pineapple and brown sugar. He loved dogs.<br />
Hammer gave the Blue Bird Cafe in Arlington a clock with birds that sing every hour on the hour.<br />
""He came in for a variety of meals,"" said owner Shirley Parris. ""All the help knew him and liked him so much.""<br />
A patriot, Dr. Hammer took little flags to Arlington Free Methodist Church for youngsters to wear during the week of Flag Day.<br />
Dr. Hammer eagerly shared his love of knowledge.<br />
""He'd make 100 copies of everything,"" Laurel Hammer said. ""He gave us all copies of an article he read about hyperbaric chambers.<br />
""He knew about everything,"" she said. ""He got all the questions right on 'Jeopardy' except about new rock groups.""<br />

"I301255","Hansen","Justin"," ","","","10 Apr 2014","","BUCHANAN —  It's been a trying and painful process for a Wisconsin state trooper recovering from severe injuries he sustained while securing a crash scene along U.S. 41 in January near Neenah.<br />
It's also helped him count his blessings.<br />
Trooper Justin Hansen, of Buchanan, updated the community on his condition and progress Thursday during a press conference organized by the Wisconsin State Patrol. He spoke of the support he's received from family and friends, expressed his thanks to colleagues and the many people who wrote him letters and praised his doctors and therapists and those who were at the scene and most likely saved his life on that cold Sunday afternoon.<br />
""I was so scared I wasn't going to survive,"" Hansen said.<br />
Nothing is taken for granted anymore. Trips to the restaurant and the ability to help his wife, Katie, with household chores are now viewed as blessings. Hansen didn't go into details about the pain he has endured since the Jan. 26 crash. Instead, he said he and his family will move beyond it. He hopes to eventually return to duty.<br />
""We're learning to adapt and adjust to our new life every day,"" he said.<br />
The crash happened about noon on southbound U.S. Highway 41 near County Trunk II in Winnebago County. Hansen parked his patrol car to protect the scene where a vehicle struck aguardrail. He was removing traffic cones from the trunk when a driver lost control and struck him and the patrol car.<br />
Both of Hansen's legs were broken in the crash and required surgery. Surgeons tried to save his right leg, but had to amputate below the knee the morning after the crash. Hansen was fitted with a prosthetic leg, and walked to his seat Thursday with assistance from a cane.<br />
Capt. Nick Scorcio, commander of the State Patrol's Fond du Lac post, said that action spoke louder than any words could.<br />
""This trooper, Justin Hansen, has a lot of determination,"" he said.<br />
Last year, there were 528 traffic fatalities in Wisconsin. About 40,000 people were injured, and among those, 3,000 were left with disabilities.<br />
Scorcio said Hansen's injuries provide a prime example of the need for motorists to stay attentive when approaching people working on the highway, whether they are police officers or maintenance crews.<br />
Wisconsin law requires motorists to shift lanes if possible, or at least slow down, when approaching parked vehicles with warning lights, whether it's a squad car, ambulance or tow truck.<br />
""The public highway is a very dangerous place,"" Scorcio said.<br />
'Bound and determined'<br />
Winnebago County deputies who assisted at the scene of the crash attended Thursday's conference and were impressed by how much Hansen has recovered in such a short period of time.<br />
When they arrived at the scene, they applied tourniquets to Hansen's wounds while waiting for an ambulance —  an effort that Hansen said kept him alive.<br />
""He's one tough trooper,"" Deputy Thomas Burns said, noting that Hansen remained calm despite his severe injuries.<br />
""I wasn't calm,"" Hansen responded, drawing laughter when he suggested that Burns remembers that day differently.<br />
Brian Wood, whose sport utility vehicle was involved in the initial crash, also offered his assistance at the scene. He's continuing to assist. His tavern, Kaukauna's 1 Bar, will host a benefit for the Hansen family on April 19.<br />
He credited Hansen's drive to recover.<br />
""It's all him,"" Wood said. ""He's bound and determined to get back to the job.""<br />
Katie Hansen said she fully supports her husband's quest to return to duty. The prospect has been a driving force in a recovery process that has left her in awe many times.<br />
""It's amazing,"" she said. ""I'm amazed by him every day.""<br />
Scorcio said Hansen will have a job waiting once he's physically able to return to work.<br />
Hansen is hopeful he will be able to resume his patrol duties by early next year. He figures, in the meantime, he will be able to perform light duty tasks.<br />
In addition to the support from family and friends, Hansen said a fellow trooper with a prosthetic leg visited his home a few times and tried to help his sons feel comfortable with the idea of their dad having a prosthetic leg.<br />
Hansen said he took inspiration from the visit and realized that life and work will go on. But it's up to him to make the best of his circumstances.<br />
""I don't ever try to think 'Why me?' with this crash,"" he said. ""I think 'Why not me? Why can't I be another person who inspires people?'""<br />

Thomas Merton was one of the most influential Christian writers of the 20th century. He lived most of his adult life in a cloistered monastery in rural Kentucky.<br />
Merton was a prolific writer who shared his passion for contemplative prayer and spirituality with those outside the monastic life with a series of books.<br />
At the height of his work, Merton was given a secretary to help him in his unique ministry - another monk of the Trappist Abbey of Our lady of Gethsemani by the name of Brother Patrick Hart.<br />
Hart - born and raised in Askeaton and graduated from Wrightstown High School in 1943 - has largely been responsible for maintaining the compendium of Merton's work and furthering his mission to bring contemplative prayer into the lives of ordinary people.<br />
The third son of Michael Hart and Frances (Fox) Hart, Patrick attended both the parish and public schools in Askeaton and Wrightstown.<br />
""He was a very devout person, a very serious guy, but he liked to go out and have fun,"" said Holland Town Clerk Bill Clancy. ""I heard he could dance like a trooper.""<br />
Hart, and Clancy's older brother, Hugh, were classmates.<br />
Clancy said Hart was a talented musician who took organ lessons at the Methodist Church in Forest Junction.<br />
At age 81, Patrick Hart is very active. His work in the monastery includes being the abbot's secretary.<br />
""I've been the secretary for the last four abbots,"" Hart said. ""Abbots come and go, but secretaries are here to stay.""<br />
He also has a number of other projects in the works.<br />
""I have a new book coming out on the monastic vision for the 21st century,"" Hart said. ""It is a book about how you see monasticism in the new world.""<br />
The book's title is ""Monastic Vision for the 21st Century."" Green Bay's auxiliary Bishop Robert Morneau wrote part of it.<br />
""I knew Bob Morneau and I have a chapter by him,"" Hart said. ""It is about both monks and people outside the monastery.""<br />
It is a part of a series of books that Hart is editing for The Liturgical Press of Collegeville, Minn., called the ""Monastic Wisdom Series.""<br />
The book will be published later this month.<br />
""(Hart) made Merton's writings available and Merton was one of the greatest spiritual writers of our time,"" Bishop Morneau said. ""He dedicated his life to a contemplative order and it is a good witness he'd modeled for us.""<br />
Hart was born at St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay in an era when few farm kids were born anywhere but at home.<br />
""On June 24, 1925, my mother decided to have her third son,"" Hart said. ""We had a Model T and my dad and my uncle, Jim Fox, did the driving and we ended up at St. Vincent.""<br />
The Hart farm was on Hart Road, behind St. Patrick Church in Askeaton.<br />
""We gave an acre of our land to the church for the priest's house and the convent,"" Hart said.<br />
Hart has strong and positive memories of Askeaton and Wrightstown.<br />
""It was a good place to grow up,"" he said. ""Electricity was just coming in when I was a child. We always had a car, but in the country you needed that.""<br />
After graduating from Wrightstown High School, Hart went to the University of Notre Dame.<br />
He went on a retreat at Gethsemani Abbey in Kentucky while at Notre Dame, and went back to the monastery in 1951 to enter it.<br />
In 1955 and 1956, his abbot sent Hart and several other monks to start a new Trappist monastery, New Clairvaux, in Vina, Calif.<br />
Hart was last back home for the funeral for his older brother, Kenny Hart, who lived in De Pere and worked for the post office.<br />
""Bill Clancy sang 'Danny Boy' at my brother's funeral,"" Hart said with a bit of a laugh. ""We don't usually sing 'Danny Boy' at funerals in the monastery.""<br />
At 81, Hart is clearly focused on the future.<br />
""I now have 20/20 vision, after a couple of cataract operations,"" he said. ""I'm 81 and counting and I'm not retired yet.""<br />

The Sun always enjoys a visit from the old settlers. Christ Harten of Little Chute happened into the Sun office Monday afternoon- it being his annual visit, and after leaving $1.50 in order that the Sun might light up his household for another year, our old friend's mind drifted back to the year 1866 when he arrived in Little Chute from Holland, having but $30 in his pocket. After paying $35 for a ""long-legged"" stove he started housekeeping, $5 in debt. Going to Green Bay to secure employment as a mason on the court house of that city - then being built. He received $3.50 each day and came home every two weeks to visit his wife and children. One of his trips was made on foot leaving Green Bay at six o'clock in the morning and arriving at Little Chute seven hours later - sore foot and weary, and it was his last trip by the tie route. Mr. Hartjen is sixty-eight years of age and still works his farm of sixty-two acres. His house is located on the top of the hill on Appleton Road, situated between the railroad track and the Zeeland house. He is still hale and hearty."

<br />
OLD SETTLERS OF SHERIDAN COUNTY<br />
From the HAY SPRINGS NEWS, HAY SPRINGS, NEBRASKA -- March 1, 1935<br />
In searching about for another old settlers write-up, to present to the re aders of the News, it was not necessary to go far. Down on Mirage Fla ts we learned to know the man of this story, many years ago.All during our lifetime we have learned to judge a man by his honest y, as a citizen and neighbor.Over in Limberg, Holland, where the real ""Dutch"" live and thrive, Martin C ora Heesacker also lived and thrived until 1854, when they migrated to Gre en Bay, Wisconsin. Here Mr. Heesacker took up land at $1.25 per acre. The re was a large Dutch<br />
settlement here the market place was called Holland Town.Mr. Heesacker's five brothers and three sisters also came to this countr y. They had among their things, when they arrived here, the legacy le ft to them by their father in the old country. Upon arriving here, they de cided to divide the cash intoequal parts among themselves. Each persons share was $.29 each, in Americ an money.The land which Martin Heesacker bought was mostly timber and consisted lar gely of pine, oak, beech, basswood and elm. Much of it was good timber f or sawing. As the years passed, four boys and four girls were born to th is couple, among them our<br />
present neighbor, Albert Heesacker, born November 21, 1859.The Heesacker children did not only attend the local school, but help ed in the timber and in the field and household duties. Boys and girls ali ke were taught to bind grain, and help with the general duties connected w ith farming. By these metho<br />
the Heesackers lived and prospered in this country.As more land was cleared and the farm acreage increased, better and quick er methods were necessary to assist in the production of crops. Realizi ng this the Heesacker boys cut 75 cords of wood, one season and haul ed it four miles to a charcoal kiand sold it for $2.00 per cord. The proceeds of this effort, were invest ed in their first harvesting mower and reaper. This was a great improveme nt over the old hand cradle.Albert worked at home until he was 21, and having a desire to follow the t hrashing trade, he managed to get a job of this nature for eight falls.The first thrashing machine he remembers was a Kaiser which had no siev es like many of the farmers will remember.In the winter time Mr. Heesacker worked in the lumber camps his chief j ob being ""swamping"". This is clearing the way for those who drags the lo gs out of the woods after the trees have been felled, trimmed and cut in p roper lengths. This was heawork, but it was also a method of earning three meals a day and a little c hange besides, not to mention the invaluable experience of taking ca re of ones self.In 1884 Mr. Heesacker made a trip west to look over some land in Platte co unty, Nebraska. What he saw convinced him that there was a chance to get g ood land cheap and build up a home of his own. He returned to Wisconsin a nd at a place calledWrightown, met a young lady named Ellen Onkels. Friendship grew to love a nd while Ellen was quite willing to share her life with his, she would n ot consent to go out into a strange new land where there were so few wom en and comforts. After argumenshe finally consented, and on November 7th, 1888, there was a big weddi ng at Holland Town. The entire community joined in the celebration, and Al bert says that at least 100 gallons of beer were consumed.With his bride, Mr. Heesacker arrived in Sheridan County, December 31, 188 8. At once the newcomers began to look around for a suitable location up on a good piece of land. They chose the N. W. 1 of secti on 32 T 30 N, R 45W.This was a claim that had been filed on by one Geo. Brookhouse who liv ed in Chadron. The deal was made Jan. 12, 1889. Later on he bought more la nd of some bachelor neighbors in Sec. 32-5 the first thing most necessa ry to do was to build a house<br />
and dig a well.Even to begin this a team and wagon were necessary so he went over to Fra nk Wassenburgs a neighbor about 3 miles east and bought a pair of 3 year o ld steers for which he paid $70.00 cash. These steers out of which he plan ned to make an ox team wwild on the range and used to neither rope nor yolk. These steers in quest ion happened to be out on the range on the south fork of Spring Creek whe re Andrew Scheenan lived. Albert borrowed a yoke here and with the he lp of several neighbors includitheir former owner Frank Wassenburg they managed to catch them and a re al amusing time they had. They asked Albert if he knew how to break oxen a nd he answered in the negative. So with ropes and halters on them these m en about 3 to each steerprepared to yoke them to the wagon while Albert watched the fun. The stee rs bucked and bawled and turned over coming up wrong side to, finally he s aid to the 12 year old Wassenburg boy, ""go to the barn and get me a bund le fork"". With fork in handAlbert gets on the wagon and yells, ""thats no way to break oxen take th em ropes off and turn em loose.How are you going to keep them from running into the breaks with you and s mashing the wagon and maybe you too? Never mined just turn em loose he ans wered. And turn em loose they did and the oxen promptly started for the ro ugh ground and so he jjabed one with the fork crowding it ahead so as to keep them on level grou nd and he ran them around on the prairie until their tongues hung out a nd there being no fences he headed them for a near by cornfield thinki ng he would teach them to eat cornwhen they reached the field he permitted them to stop being about played o ut. He jumped off and pulled an ear of corn and offered it to the oxen b ut with a snort they bolted. Albert jumped on the wagon and chased them ar ound the prairie some morebrought them back and this time got them to eat a little corn.In this way he worked with them for a couple of hours teaching them to st op at the word whoa, finally driving them back to Scheenans where the m en were still lolling about. He drove up and laughed at their surprise wh en the now thoroughly subdueoxen stopped at the word. Where have you been all the time they want ed to know. Oh just to Hay Springs and got a glass of beer. From then on t hese range steers soon became a useful pair of oxen. He got a breaking pl ow broke sod and with the help<br />
a couple of neighbors laid up a sod house 16x30 in 3 days.Next he broke 10 acres and put it into wheat harrowing it 4 times. His nei ghbor John R. Kelly hired him to do some breaking for him and he took po rk in payment for the work.Some of the neighbors said, you can't do much with a green pair of Oxen li ke that. But Albert says beginning March 6th the day he bought the stee rs up to July 4th he had broken sod for his house and 36 more acres for fa rming and made three 50 miltrips to Clarks saw mill in the timber for wood and lumber besides mo re or less work around home. They were exceptionally good walkers and wh en he was on his way home from the timber and saw some one threshing clo se to the road he would run over tohis favorite job of hand feeding the machine awhile and then trot off do wn the road to overtake his oxen.There was a fair harvest that first year and Albert cut his wheat with a c radle and his faithful Ellen bound it by hand. In the fall Pat Moran th at loguacious Irishman so well known here in an early day came with his n ew Maseline machine to threthe crop. Albert put his oxen on the power and Pat declared they can't ke ep up with the horses, but they did just the same and that evening Albe rt says to Pat if you had all teams like that you could just send your dri ver home and save $2.00 per daLater however the dry years came and they were completely dried out raisi ng neither crops nor feed. Just 2 miles east and a half north on the nor th branch of spring creek was the Ira Willis place which grew hay on the c reek bottoms and theHeesackers leased this on a 50-50 basis some cattle going with the plac e. Here they stayed during 96-97 and then returned to their own home. Ma ny of the settlers were leaving those days and one day their nearest neigh bor to the west John Brown withis family and everything else possible loaded on the wagon drove up and c alled to Albert as they went by come on lets go back east this country wi ll never amount to anything. Albert apparently was ready to go but he we nt into the house and spoke this wife about it. She thought a moment and then said firmly ""no! we'll st ay. And stay they did though at times it seemed almost a heart breaking st ruggle yet by the better years that followed their patience was finally re warded.Little by little more improvements and horses and other livestock and mach inery were added to the farm.As the years passed 12 children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Heesacker and mo st of them grew up to help their parents work the land and build up the ho me which seemed permanently and happily established. But it is never all s unshine in any mans likand sorrow entered here also that their hearts might be tried.Two of the children died from dyptheria. In 1906 while heading the farm fl ock of sheep their son Cornelius was found dead on the prairie. His pony h ad fallen. And the boys foot had caught in the stirrup and he was dragg ed to death. It was a h<br />
blow but bravely born.People of Christian faith as they were always feel keenly the chastiseme nt of Gods hand, but their faith is likewise sufficient to carry them thro ugh.Later on also the loving wife and mother who had labored so patiently by h is side was called away, but again he knew that the Master who gives so ab undantly may also take away and so bowed in submission.At the present time most of children have married and established hom es of their own or are following other occupations.Mr. Heesacker is still at home on the old farm in Grant precinct with h is two youngest sons, a much respected citizen and neighbor."

Army Sgt. Matthew D. Hermanson was just over a week away from celebrating his first wedding anniversary when he was killed while serving in Afghanistan.<br />
<br />
The 22-year-old Appleton man died from wounds he suffered Thursday when his unit —  2nd Battalion, 4th Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division based at Fort Polk, La. —  took on small arms fire in the Wardak province in the east-central portion of the country, the Defense Department said Saturday.<br />
<br />
Hermanson and his wife, Rachel, a former teacher in Elkhorn, were to celebrate their first wedding anniversary on May 8. Hermanson would have turned 23 on May 27.<br />
<br />
""He was a good guy. He cared a lot about other people. He cared a lot about my sister,"" Rachel's sister, Daisy Younger, 22, of Elkhorn, told The Post-Crescent Saturday night.<br />
<br />
""He would always make sure she was OK and he would send her flowers to just tell her how much he loved her. He would send her gifts. He was just a really caring guy. He would ask even her family how we were doing.""<br />
<br />
Daisy said Matthew and Rachel met through Facebook.<br />
<br />
""They didn't have any (mutual) friends. He just started talking with her. They hung out a few times and she told me that he was the one for her. They started dating and he felt that she was the one for him and he asked her to marry him.""<br />
<br />
The couple dated for two years and got engaged in the fall of 2009, Daisy said.<br />
<br />
Daisy said Rachel and their mother, Gladys Younger, traveled to Delaware, where Matthew's body was returned on Saturday.<br />
<br />
Rev. Donald Younger, the soldier's father-in-law, said Hermanson spent a lot of time hunting and fishing. Hermanson had recently been notified that he was being promoted to staff sergeant, Younger said, and he was expected to come home for a two-week visit on May 20.<br />
<br />
""He was very respected by the men of his company,"" Younger, of Elkhorn, told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. ""Even now, we're getting flowers; we're getting cards from the men in his company who are still in Iraq.""<br />
<br />
Chad Pheasant, 24, who is stationed at Fort Polk, La., told The Post-Crescent that he and Hermanson were close.<br />
<br />
""We went through basic training together and then we were in the same company for about three years,"" he said Saturday night.<br />
<br />
Pheasant said he will remember ""all the good times we've had. We pretty much grew up in the Army together. After basic training we stayed really close being stationed together. I'm thinking about his family.<br />
<br />
""We did a lot of fishing together —  renting boats and going out on Toledo Bend. We had a lot of good times out there. We also spent a good bit of time camping up on the lake as well as hanging out, sitting around the campfire talking. We also watched some football together.<br />
<br />
""I need to talk with my chain of command, but I definitely plan on making it up there for his (funeral) services,"" Pheasant said.<br />
<br />
Hermanson, who was deployed to Afghanistan in October, previously served 14 months in Iraq, his father-in-law said.<br />
<br />
His parents are Jeffrey and Sandy Hermanson of Appleton; his brothers are Nathan and Joshua. He graduated in 2006 from Appleton North High School.<br />
<br />
Appleton North Principal James Huggins said Saturday that while he didn't personally know Hermanson, because Huggins came to North in 2008, he felt a sense of loss. Huggins served in the Marine Corps.<br />
<br />
""Any time you lose a service member, a local boy, one of our own, it's tragically sad,"" he said. ""My thoughts go out to the family.""<br />
<br />
Huggins said he notified school staff of Hermanson's death Saturday morning.<br />
<br />
Barry O'Connor, who retired as North's principal in 2008, said he remembered Hermanson as ""quiet, a really nice kid.""<br />
<br />
Tyler Rawlings of Appleton, who graduated with Hermanson, said he knew Hermanson had joined the Army, but hadn't heard he was killed in combat.<br />
<br />
""He was a good kid,"" Rawlings said.<br />
<br />
In a press statement Saturday, Gov. Scott Walker said: ""Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Sergeant Hermanson, especially to his wife and parents. We're enormously grateful for his service. His family is in our prayers during this time of grief.""<br />
<br />
U.S. Rep. Reid Ribble, R-De Pere, also extended his sympathies.<br />
""My wife DeaNa and I extend our deepest condolences to the Hermanson family during this incredibly difficult time. Sergeant Hermanson is a hero. His sacrifice in service to our country will not soon be forgotten,"" Ribble said.<br />
<br />
As of Friday, 1,198 U.S. soldiers had been killed in action in Afghanistan, 11,110 had been wounded in action, and another 250 had died in nonhostile circumstances, according to the Defense Department.<br />
<br />
On Wednesday, Pfc. Jonathan Villanueava, 19, of Jacksonville, Fla., a member of Hermanson's unit, also died in an attack involving small arms fire, the Defense Department said.<br />
<br />
Hermanson joined the Army in March 2007, completed training at Fort Benning, Ga., and was subsequently stationed at Fort Polk in December 2007. He deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom from November 2007 to January 2009.<br />
<br />
Hermanson's awards and decorations include the Bronze Star, the Purple Heart, Army Commendation Medal, the Army Good Conduct Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, the Iraq Campaign Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, two Overseas Service Ribbons, the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the NCO Professional Development Ribbon, the NATO Medal, the Combat Infantryman Badge, and the Air Assault Badge. He completed the Warrior Leadership and the Force XXI Battle Command Brigade courses."

BY MAUREEN WALLENFANG • POST-CRESCENT STAFF WRITER • APRIL 5, 2010<br />
<br />
Autumn Hill is at the helm of her self-named Autumn Hill Creative, a marketing, design and Web site development firm in Kimberly. The firm has gone through a growth spurt recently with new line of eco-friendly promotional products for small business clients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Q What's the single smartest thing a small business can do to stay afloat in this economy?<br />
<br />
A Get creative and try to think a little more innovatively. Form collaborations and partnerships.<br />
<br />
Q Give an example of the innovative thinking you've done.<br />
<br />
A A year ago we expanded our offerings to include the Viva el Verde line. It's eco-friendly promotional products to promote your brand. It's going well.<br />
<br />
Q These are objects, like totes and pens, with company logos that companies give to customers?<br />
<br />
A Yes. The way we differentiate ourselves in the promotional product market is that we're designers. We don't just slap a logo on something. We take the time to design something that's going to fit within your brand. Promotional products live with your customer, provided that it's a quality item and they keep it. It's an effective form of advertising. We like to take it up a notch as far as eco-friendly materials and design.<br />
<br />
Q Which clients are responding to this?<br />
<br />
A Banks, nonprofits and contractors. We like to source products locally whenever possible, and that includes paper. Paper companies are now coming out with great products that have eco-friendly characteristics such as recycled content or wind power manufacturing. We don't like to source things from China.<br />
<br />
Q Overall, how has business gone?<br />
<br />
A From our launch in 2004, we have shown consistent |double-digit sales increases each year. We leveled off in 2008 because of the economy, but we expanded our product line and invested in equipment, which allowed us to grow 26 percent over a year ago.<br />
<br />
Q What other innovations have you brought to your business?<br />
<br />
A We added printing four years ago. Digital printing had taken a real leap forward in the quality. We were one of the first companies in the Valley to have a machine with this new technology. It allowed us to offer our small-business clients affordable printing.<br />
<br />
Q You mentioned collaboration is important. Can you name one valuable partnership?<br />
<br />
A Anytime a client of ours has an event, we bring in Joey Reader (of A-mazing Events). She has been a fantastic resource.<br />
<br />
Q You've done a lot of networking and pro bono work. Why so much?<br />
<br />
A Instead of doing a large marketing or advertising campaign when we launched our business, we got involved in causes and organizations we were passionate about. It was a great way to meet people and also to show people the quality of our work, showcase our abilities and network. Meeting people through these organizations who work for various companies has led to various opportunities and referrals.<br />
<br />
Q Pastor G. Manns, head of B.A.B.E.S. Inc. Respite & Counseling Service, told me her organization is giving you a small business of the year award later this month.<br />
<br />
A It's in recognition for the pro bono work we did for B.A.B.E.S. We believe nonprofits and small businesses deserve to have high-quality marketing materials just the same as a Kimberly-Clark or Menasha Corp. That's been at the core of our business since we started, the focus on services for small businesses. Just because they're small, or can't afford a big agency, doesn't mean they don't need the branding and marketing same as a large company.<br />
<br />
INNOVATOR INSIGHTS<br />
Growth strategy<br />
""We have grown our business organically from the start. We didn't go out and get a bank loan to fund our start-up. We've grown our business and re-invested in it over the years. We didn't bring with us a bevy of clients from our previous employers. We earned each one along the way.""<br />
<br />
Helping other small businesses<br />
""Many huge corporations started in the founder's garage or basement with an idea, a dream, and a lot of hard work. By nurturing the entrepreneurs and small businesses of today, we are helping to create the economy of the future.""<br />
<br />
Continuing education<br />
""We always credit E-Seed as being one of the main foundations of the success of our business. We got off on the right foot. E-Seed forces you to pay attention to the things you don't know. When people start a business, they tend to know a lot about whatever their particular expertise is, but they don't know a lot about actually running a business, the day-to-day operations and setting up processes.""<br />

"I334783","Hill","Patricia ""Pat""","Langman","12 Jul 1931","17 Aug 2017","8 Sep 2015","Appleton Post Crescent","GRAND CHUTE –   It's a time of transformation and overdue recognition for 133 people buried at the cemetery of the former Outagamie County Asylum for the Chronic Insane.<br />
The tucked-away burial grounds –  one that had long been overgrown –  is in the midst of an affirming face lift. Few are as thankful as 84-year-old Appleton resident Pat Langman.<br />
She spent her childhood there as the daughter of two employees. She was never taught –  or thought -- patients were any less than worthy of respect. Those forgotten will at long last have their names listed on a memorial, and Langman is heartened it's finally happening.<br />
""That was one of the happiest times of my life,"" she said.<br />
Langman, a member of the Friends of Outagamie County Cemetery, shared her early memories of a place that confined the mentally ill among others considered unfit to live in the greater community. Work is well under way at the cemetery, and a dedication ceremony will take place Sept. 24.<br />
Langman's father was the boss at the asylum's farm, which provided work to inmates. She was 7 years old in 1938 when her family moved into a five-bedroom house on the grounds.<br />
Those years remain ""technicolor,"" she said.<br />
<br />
PHOTOS:  Outagamie County Insane Asylum<br />
<br />
Brewster Village, the county's nursing home, now stands near the site of the since-razed asylum. Cemetery visitors today would walk where Langman's home once stood. It's situated north of the nursing home, is accessible by trail and sits within Fox Valley Technical College's truck training course.<br />
Her parents met at the asylum. Her father, Wally, was a farm hand at the time. Her mother, Eleanor, was an attendant to patients.<br />
""My parents had no prejudice at all about mentally ill people, and, of course, we didn't either,"" Langman said.<br />
'It was also a community'<br />
Langman acknowledges the asylum was a place of injustice for many.<br />
Some were confined for alcoholism. There were women there who suffered from what today is known as post-partum depression. They recovered, yet stayed there for the rest of their lives.<br />
She recalled the discomfort of seeing a patient in a straitjacket. Her young mind went to thoughts of the woman falling with arms bound.<br />
The wrongs aren't the full story, she said.<br />
For many patients –  given the times and prevailing attitudes -- ""it might have been a better life than they would have had on the outside.""<br />
Mary Robertson, chairwoman of Outagamie County's cemetery oversight committee, said Langman's first-hand experiences have been invaluable as the cemetery's revitalization has progressed. it's a project of physical improvements, yet those involved have been driven to learn.<br />
Many involved have backgrounds in social work and advocacy for those with mental illnesses and disabilities. The era of asylums and practices such as straitjackets, shock treatments and ice baths are horrifying to think about.<br />
Langman provided a fuller picture.<br />
""She has pointed there may very well have been some good things that went on in institutions,"" Robertson said.<br />
Langman said many of the staff members, including her parents, cared deeply about the patients.<br />
Some patients were abandoned, never seeing visitors.<br />
Others, including twin brothers with Downs syndrome, saw their families every week. She remembered a patient who received ice skates as a gift, and they'd skate together at the pond.<br />
The Christmas programs remain special memories.<br />
Emma, a mute woman of small stature, would take the role of a little girl.<br />
""There always was a patient who knew how to play piano and would play Christmas carols,"" Langman said.<br />
No one was given a role he or she couldn't handle. Santa Claus only had to remember, ""ho, ho, ho.""<br />
""It was an institution, but it was also a community,"" Langman said.<br />
'Our guardian angels'"

Kaukauna High School Hall of Fame to honor former athletes David Hinkens, Mary Miller Yaeger, Matt Welhouse and Kris Krueger Albers<br />
The Post-Crescent<br />
Two women and two men will be inducted into the Kaukauna High School Athletic Hall of Fame at Van Abel's of Hollandtown, in conjunction with the school's alumni rally on Saturday, June 20.<br />
David Hinkens (class of 1984), Mary Miller Yaeger (1984), Matt Welhouse (1983) and Kris Krueger Albers (1984) will be honored.<br />

Quintin Winks, Alberni Valley Times<br />
Published: Friday, May 28, 2010<br />
Oscar Inglin is a statistical anomaly.<br />
Not only did he celebrate his 105th birthday last Tuesday, a feat that earned him a birthday card from Queen Elizabeth, he still has all his fingers despite 35 years working in a lumber mill.<br />
But the unusual tale of Inglin's long life doesn't end there. Born in Switzerland in 1905, he was one of three boys. His father was blinded in an industrial accident and his mother was left with the challenge of running the house and raising the teens. She managed with an iron fist, which eventually drove Inglin away. Far away. He arrived in Canada in the early 1920s and landed in Saskatoon where he trained to be a nurse. Though he married a Canadian girl, also a nurse, he wasn't given much credibility in a field then dominated by women.<br />
As the economy in Canada sputtered and jobs became scarce, Inglin and his wife headed west. She completed her nurse's training and Inglin's employer told him he was needed in Port Alberni.<br />
""In B.C. nobody knew where Port Alberni was,"" said Inglin. ""Nobody in Vancouver could tell me where it was, except that it was near Nanaimo.""<br />
In 1924 Inglin and his wife stepped off the ferry and made their way to the couple's new home in the middle of Vancouver Island. To this day he remembers it raining so hard that it sloshed over the tops of his wife's calf-high boots. But he came to love the rain, eventually, and today it's one of his fondest memories of the Valley.<br />
But the trials and tribulations of Inglin's life were far from over.<br />
The new job at the local hospital didn't bring much satisfaction for the Swiss immigrant. So he went to join the army. Unfortunately, the Swiss government refused to send Inglin the necessary papers to become a Canadian until 1945, at which point he promptly enlisted.<br />
""I did a lot of medical work with the army in Europe,"" said Inglin. ""I spent five years in the army until 1950.""<br />
Inglin was still overseas when his friend told him about a job at a brand new pulp mill in Port Alberni. Before long he returned to work in the city's new MacMillan Bloedel facility. Inglin worked as a first responder in the event of an accident or injury, but no one was injured in the first year. So the company chopped Inglin's job and shifted him to the digester where he spent the next three decades.<br />
""It paid much better, which is what I needed,"" said Inglin. ""I made newsprint and paper.""<br />
Inglin retired in 1970 following a successful career at the mill.<br />
""It's a heck of a long time to be retired,"" he said, looking back. But he's never at a loss of things to do. He said he can spend hours thinking of the past and dreaming. His wife died in 1960 and Inglin spent years travelling. He went to South Africa when he was 90.<br />
These days, Inglin lives in Fir Park Village. He said he feels like he's 80 and his body works perfectly. He loves beer and still sneaks the occasional drink, but mostly he lives a simple and healthy lifestyle.<br />
""I have a TV, but I never watch it,"" he said. ""I'd rather look out the window or be outside.""<br />

By Maureen Wallenfang<br />
Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
<br />
Q There's been tremendous change here. You're the operating partner. Your dad retired a year ago, though he's still co-owner. Is he out of the picture?<br />
<br />
A Pretty much. He goes and gets produce once a week.<br />
<br />
Q I noticed in your ads you had him fading out over a period of weeks.<br />
<br />
A It's amazing how many people saw that. Even a couple of weeks ago someone said, ""It was cool how you faded your dad out and he just went off into the sunset."" That's exactly what he thought. It was an attention getter.<br />
<br />
Q Now you're in charge. How's it going?<br />
<br />
A Really well. I'm trying some different things including some different products.<br />
<br />
Q What have you added?<br />
<br />
A A couple of months ago we added chicken brats, which have been a very, very good seller for us. We almost sell as many chicken brats as we do the pork brats. It's the health thing. They're leaner. There's no fat or filler. And chicken brats are very tasty.<br />
<br />
Q Are the frozen stuffed chicken breasts new?<br />
<br />
A Pretty new. We've been expanding a little bit at a time with those. We started out with cordon bleu, crabmeat/blue cheese, broccoli and cheddar and chicken Kiev. Now we have mushroom and Swiss and a couple different new ones.<br />
<br />
Q They're made on the premises?<br />
<br />
A Yes. They're doing well. That's the way that America is going. They just want to grab something that's gourmet, bring it home and pop it in the oven.<br />
<br />
Q I see you make pizzas on the premises. What else?<br />
<br />
A We started making lasagnas probably a couple of months ago. That's been going really well too. It's different things I wanted to do over the years, but have been restrained. I didn't want to step on my dad's toes.<br />
<br />
Q A lot of this is take-and-bake?<br />
<br />
A Yes. So many people come in here at 5 o'clock and you see them walking the aisles. (When you ask) ""Can I help you find something?"" they say, ""I'm just looking for inspiration for dinner."" A stuffed chicken breast is $6 and it will feed two people. So $3 apiece. You can't go to a restaurant for that and get that quality of a product.<br />
<br />
Q What other innovations have you brought in?<br />
<br />
A Gift cards instead of gift certificates. With gift cards you have remaining balances, and you can use it over and over. We went through over 250 gift cards just for the Christmas season. I was really surprised at that.<br />
<br />
Q Most of your sales here are meat?<br />
<br />
A It's pretty close to 70 percent. The groceries are here for convenience. Customers don't bring their grocery lists in here. Mainly they're here for the meat.<br />
<br />
Q Grocery stores run on a thin margin. Is this profitable?<br />
<br />
A My dad set this up where he could make enough money (to pay) the bills and the employees. It wasn't meant to be a profitable business.<br />
<br />
Q This is an icon of Appleton. It's been around since anyone can imagine. Do you have any future expansion plans?<br />
<br />
A I would love down the road to have another meat market.<br />
<br />
Q Is youth an asset or a disadvantage here?<br />
<br />
A I think it's very much an asset. A customer comes in and you're bright and cheery. People don't have a problem coming to me and saying, ""I don't know how to cook this. I've never grilled before. How do I do it?"" But they might have had a problem with my dad because he was kind of short with customers. He wanted to get them in and out and quick as he could.<br />
<br />
I want the whole experience for the customer. I want to get to know the person and for them to know me. We (Luke and his wife) just had a daughter five months ago. I have a weekly e-mail I send out to my customers and a lot of people are coming in and asking, ""How's the baby doing? When are we going to see new photos?"" That adds a personal touch to it. It's fun. That's neat to hear that people care about me, because I care about the customer."

Doctors patched up the back of her hand in an attempt to save it and if signs of healing develop flesh from another part of the child's body will be grafted on. The wrist also was broken. The child put her hand into the gears while her mother was answering the telephone, leaving the baby alone in the room. Before Mrs. Kalupa<br />
could pull the switch to stop the machine, the hand had been horribly mangled. The big gear which engages with the smaller gear on the main shaft from motor was guarded with a heavy casing of iron, leaving only a narrow opening not more than 14 inches wide and perhaps slightly longer. When the child's fingers were caught in the mesh of the gears, however, her whole<br />
hand was drawn in. It was necessary to remove the casing and loosen the gears before the hand could be taken away.<br />

A Kaukauna family received a commemorative copy Tuesday of an act of Congress which they inspired.<br />
<br />
Jerry and Mary Kavanaugh received a copy of the Service Members Home Ownership Tax Act from Congressman Steve Kagen.<br />
<br />
They worked with the 8th Congressional District Democrat to get Congress to pass the act allowing service members overseas to remain eligible for the $8,000 first-time home buyers tax credit when they get back to the U.S.<br />
<br />
The Kavanaughs say their son was looking to buy a new home but was deployed to Iraq for a second tour of duty in February.<br />
<br />
""It's an emotional thing for us to be able to not only help him but every single military personnel that's serving in Iraq and Afghanistan and all around the world. They're going to come home and have an opportunity to buy a house,"" Mr. Cavanaugh said.<br />
<br />
Dave Kavanaugh is currently overseeing a detention facility in southern Iraq.<br />
<br />
There are 350,000 U.S. service members who are potentially eligible for the tax break.<br />
<br />
""He thinks I'm a rock star over there,"" Mr. Kavanaugh said, ""and I says, no I'm not. I said I just picked up the phone and made a couple phone calls, and I says you guys are the rock stars -- the guys over in Iraq and Afghanistan, they're the ones making a sacrifice."""

EXTENSION OF REMARKS of HON. GLENN R. DAVIS OF WISCONSIN IN THE<br />
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES (Congressional Record of Thursday, June<br />
15, 1950)<br />
Mr. Speaker, on Tuesday, June 13, I had the privilege of speaking over WHA, Wisconsin's State radio station, and its affiliated radio outlets. Because our distinguished and able colleague, FRANK KEEFE, who has announced his retirement from Congress at the end of this session, is a State wide indeed, a Nationwide figure, I used the occasion to pay a deserved tribute to his service here in the House. Some of the information contained will I believe, prove interesting to Frank's many friends here on both sides of the aisle. For that reason, Mr. Speaker, I have asked permission to insert the text of my radio talk in the RECORD: (Opening Deleted) .......<br />
In this connection, I wonder today how many of the people of Wisconsin realize the loss our State and our Nation will suffer at the end of the Eighty-first Congress, when one of the most influential Wisconsin Members ever to serve in Congress retires voluntarily from the position he has so ably filled for 12 long and action-packed years. I refer, of course, to Congressman FRANK B. KEEFE, of Oshkosh, who has represented the Sixth District, that adjoins the Second District on the north. For reasons of health, FRANK KEEFE is retiring from Congress at the end of his present term, and will seek to regain his once-vigorous health in the more quiet and peaceful surroundings of his home community.<br />
Few people who have not experienced congressional life can realize what a hard task it can be, for a man who is conscientious, who tries to study the many problems and proposed solutions before him, and who devotes all the time and energy that the job demands. Too often those of us here in Washington have seen the flag over the House Office Building lowered to half-staff, in tribute to some Member who has pushed himself beyond the limits of endurance, and paid the price with his life. Just recently, the Congress has suffered such losses in the sudden deaths of Congressmen Lesinski, of Michigan; Lemke, of North Dakota; and Church, of Illinois.<br />
The first vote I ever cast for a Congressman was for FRANK KEEFE. At that time, I was teaching in Waupun High School, and because I was rooming on the Fond du Lac County side of the city of Waupun, I was In the Sixth Congressional District.<br />
As a matter of fact, FRANK KEEFE almost became a permanent resident of the Second Congressional District in his early career. After graduating from the University of Michigan in law he came to Portage, Wis., and became associated with the law office of one of Wisconsin's outstanding attorneys, Daniel H. Grady. But later, FRANK KEEFE decided to strike out on his own and he moved to Omro, where he opened a law office, and in 1913 he became a resident of Oshkosh, which has remained his home ever since.<br />
When he was elected to Congress, he was named in his very first term to one of the most important committees in Congress, Appropriations, and he has served on that committee ever since. He thus broke all precedents; never before had a first-termer been named to that committee.<br />
Being a member of the Appropriations Committee virtually seals a Congressman behind a wall of silence, as far as committee work is concerned. Its sessions are closed to the public and the press reporters are not permitted to attend its deliberations. When the Appropriations Committee finishes its hearings and files a report, it is in newspaper language ""old stuff."" The report is large and the contents dry, not the kind of material that lends itself readily to headline making. But there is no more important job in Congress than that of serving on the Appropriations Committee.<br />
During these years, Congressman KEEFE has served as chairman of our Republican delegation from Wisconsin, as well as representing Wisconsin on the policy-making committee of the Republicans in the House. He also has served on two other prominent committees. He was one of the Congressmen named to make the investigation of the Pearl Harbor disaster, and a supplemental report which he wrote on that affair was highly praised by Historian Charles A. Beard. Congressman KEEFE also is serving on the committee to renovate the White House at the present time.<br />
But it has been his work on the Labor-Federal Security Subcommittee on Appropriations that has brought him to most prominent attention in Washington. Much of the credit for Federal research projects in health problems, including cancer, heart disease, and arthritis, must be given to FRANK B. KEEFE, of Wisconsin. Just as the Wisconsin delegation usually looks to Congressman REID MURRAY, of Ogdensburg, to be our spokesman in agricultural debates in the House or Congressman LAWRENCE SMITH, of Racine, to inform on matters of foreign affairs, so has FRANK KEEFE been the first Wisconsin debater to take the floor in the House when matters affecting public health have been under consideration. He also has been one of the first to answer those who speak for socialized medicine plans.<br />
In 1948, although this fact may not be well known in Wisconsin, there was some talk at the Republican national convention of a compromise ticket that would have included JOE MARTIN, of Massachusetts, for President and FRANK KEEFE, of Wisconsin for Vice President. It also was widely believed that if the Republicans had won the 1948 Presidential race, Congressman KEEFE would have been offered the post of head of the social-security agency, which probably would have led to a Cabinet position as Secretary of a new Department of Public Welfare.<br />
All this goes to show that FRANK KEEFE is a recognized national leader of his party and serves to emphasize to Wisconsin how much of a loss our State suffers when a man of his prominence and ability leaves the field of public service. I think it will be Interesting to listen to some excerpts from letters that were sent to the recent testimonial dinner held for Congressman KEEFE in Wisconsin.<br />
Said W. Stuart Symington, a Democrat who is chairman of the National Security Resources Board: ""Although we were on opposite sides of the fence politically, I know that FRANK KEEFE always has been a fine public servant patriotic, forceful, and intelligent in his approach to the vital aspects of our national security in this air-atomic age."" Now let me quote Dr. W. Palmer Dearing, Acting Surgeon General of the United States, who said that ""both as an advocate of health legislation and as a friendly and constructive critic of the programs of the service, FRANK KEEFE has earned a permanent place on the roster of champions of better health."" And United States Senator STYLES BRIDGES, of New Hampshire, said ""FRANK KEEFE has been one of the most outstanding Members of Congress. He is one or those rare individuals who possess not only real ability and a keen understanding of public affairs, but he also has the courage of his convictions to speak out at all times.""<br />
Too often, Members of Congress never get to hear the opinions of their fellow Members. They die in harness, and so never get to hear the kind words that Congressmen express in memorial services for them. Perhaps some of those words are expressed in an effort to make up for our own failure to offer such expressions of appreciation while our friend was with us. In FRANK KEEFE'S case, he is merely retiring from the arena now because of ill health, at a time when his personal popularity is high and there would be no question of his reelection had he entered the coming campaign for Congress again, It Is well that we should take note as FRANK leaves the Congress, of his services to our State and our Nation during the last 12 years.<br />
Except for the self-satisfaction that comes with a feeling that you have given something of your life to the Serving of your fellowmen, there is little recompense to being a Congressman. You are 1 of 435 Members, and unable by yourself to make much of an impression upon the laws of the land or the affairs of the world. Only a handful of men who have served in the House of Representatives in the previous generation are remembered today for anything they accomplished while Members of the House. Financially, there is little doubt but that men like FRANK KEEFE serve at a sacrifice. Since fame nor fortune seldom reward man for his services to the public, it is fitting that those of us who can should express the appreciation that the public should feel for his service.<br />
Wisconsin has been a fortunate State, fortunate because nature gave us natural resources of untold value from which our industry, our agriculture, and our recreational business developed. But Wisconsin has been fortunate in another respect, in that she has produced many men and women who were giants like the mighty Norway pines of the upland forests. These men and women, at great sacrifice to their personal fortunes, at the expenditure of their energies and vigor, often at the cost of putting duty to State ahead of duty to family, have given of themselves to public service. Some of them, like Walter Kohler, Sr., and Oscar Rennebohm have known success in private life before turning to public service. Some of them have devoted their lives to public service and grown in stature with increased responsibilities, just as did Robert M. La Follette, Sr. But all of them, by enhancing good government, have brought credit to Wisconsin and reflected glory upon themselves.<br />
In that book of records in which the lives of Wisconsin s prominent citizens are written, there's room for a chapter devoted to FRANK B KEEFE. But it is an unfinished chapter, for all in Wisconsin who know him well will join me in the hope that when he regains his health FRANK KEEFE may find further use for his talents and experience in public affairs in our Nation.<br />
ARTICLE IN THE WINNECONNE NEWS - FEBRUARY 5, 1952<br />
FRANK B. KEEFE, NATIVE SON, DIES SUDDENLY AT NEENAH<br />
Atty. Frank B. Keefe, acknowledged by many to be Winneconne's most illustrious native son, died suddenly at Neenah Tuesday afternoon. He was stricken with a heart attack after addressing a womans' group at Neenah and collapsed when he entered his parked car. He was pronounced dead at Theda Clark hospital.<br />
Former Representative Keefe was born in Winneconne September 23, 1887, the son of Thomas and Katherine (Forsythe) Keefe, immigrants from Ireland. (Note: This is not correct. His Grandfather, John Keefe, and Grandmother, Mary Bateman Keefe were the immigrants). The elder Mr. Keefe operated an implement store here for a time and later was a salesman for Lindsay Bros., an implement company of Milwaukee. He was the oldest salesman in his line in the state. The Keefe family resided in a house at the present location of the Al Broehm residence.<br />
Frank Keefe attended the Winneconne schools. He had the reputation of being a good student and an excellent athlete. In races and other contests, it was often he who was the winner.<br />
He attended the Oshkosh Normal school, graduating in 1906. The next year he was principal of the school at Viroqua. This was followed by his studies at the University of Michigan law school, from which he was graduated in 1910.<br />
For a time Mr. Keefe practiced law at Omro and was president of the village. He married the former Mildred Virginia Steele of Berlin.<br />
Mr. Keefe moved to Oshkosh in 1915 and joined the law firm of which he was senior partner at the time of his death. He served as district attorney from 1922 to 1928 and assistant district attorney in 1916 and 1917. He was elected Congressional representative from this district for six terms, retiring in 1950 on account of ill health.<br />
Atty. Keefe was widely known as a colorful, powerful orator and a successful trial lawyer. His command of the language and his mannerisms made him an imposing figure on the platform.<br />
In 1949 he delivered the principal address at Winneconne's centennial celebration. His last appearance here as a speaker was in May 1951 when he delivered the Memorial Day address at the village hall. The flag was flown at half-mast on the village hall Wednesday and Thursday in respect to Mr. Keefe.<br />
The survivors are the widow; a son Bateman of Atlanta, Ga; two daughters, Mrs. Charles Nolan of Oshkosh and Mrs. Edwin Rosten of Madison; two sisters, Mrs. Katherine Craig of Green Bay and Mrs. Maude Hayward of Minneapolis; a brother, Rudyard Keefe of Oshkosh, and five grandchildren.<br />
The funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon at Fiss and Bills Funeral home in Oshkosh. The Rev. William Spicer of Trinity Episcopal Church will have charge and burial will be in Lake View Memorial Park.<br />
(The Keefe home was located on Lots 5 & 6, Block 4, Ripon Addition).<br />
Keefe Eulogized in House and Throughout State of Wisconsin<br />
WASHINGTON(AP) --- Former Wisconsin Rep. Frank B. Keefe, who died Tuesday at Neenah, was eulogized Wednesday by members of the House. Keefe, 64, had been a congressman from 1938 to 1950.<br />
""He was a strong character, a man of great convictions,"" Majority Leader McCormick (D-Mass.) told his colleagues.<br />
Minority Leader Martin (R-Mass.) said Keefe ""was one of the most outstanding men who ever came to Congress."" ,<br />
Rep. Van Pelt (R-Wis.), who succeeded Keefe last year when the Oshkosh legislator retired because of ill health, said his predecessor was ""a great statesman, an outstanding American. He served his country well.""<br />
Rep. Smith (R-Wis.) said Keefe was ""a casualty of public service. He gave himself without stint. He has left his imprint upon this body.""<br />
In the Senate Keefe was eulogized by Sen. Case (R-S. D.), Majority Leader McFarland (D-Ariz.) and Minority Leader Bridges (R-N. H.).<br />
Messages Are Many<br />
From the nation's Capitol, the state capitol, from every section of the country messages of sympathy and expressions of personal loss at the death of former Rep. Frank B. Keefe were reaching his family today.<br />
The former congressman died suddenly of a heart attack, following a talk in Neenah Tuesday.<br />
On behalf of Gov. Walter J. Kohler, Acting Gov. George M. Smith sent a message of sympathy, saying in part, ""Wisconsin has lost a fine public servant, one who gave of himself unstintingly for the public good. During his many years of service as district attorney of Winnebago County and as Representative in Congress . . . he won the affection and respect of all who were associated with him. We all regret his passing.""<br />
En route to Oshkosh to attend funeral services to be held at 2 p.m. Friday, Sixth District Rep. William K. Van Pelt, wired: ""I join with the citizens of the Sixth District in mourning the loss of former Rep. Frank B. Keefe. It might well be said that his untimely passing was due in a great part to the public service that he rendered to his city, to his state and to the nation as a whole, His great determination provided for the nation many of the necessary facilities to protect and contribute to the health of his fellowman. His achievements in this field will be living memorial to the memory of Rep. Keefe. I join with his former colleagues in extending my deepest sympathy to his bereaved family.""<br />
""One of Finest""<br />
""Frank Keefe was one of the finest and ablest members of the House of Representatives and he has left his mark there for all time,"" wrote Rep. John Taber, chairman of the appropriations committee, 80th Congress.<br />
Said Rep. Philip J. Philbin, ""Like other members of the House I held him in highest esteem. He was one of the great Americans of our time.""<br />
""Deepest sympathy"" to the Keefe family was expressed by Gen. Glen E Edgerton, executive director of the Commission on Renovation of the Executive Mansion. Rep. Keefe had been one of the two congressmen appointed to the commission.<br />
Many who had worked with Mr. Keefe on the public health measures which were a continuing interest to the Oshkosh man told of personal and public loss in his death. Msgr. John O'Grady, head of the National Catholic Welfare conference, expressed an undying admiration for the late representative. ""I will never forget his contribution to voluntary social welfare in the United States."" Albert Lasker of the Lasker Foundation and Mrs. Mary Lasker, co-chairman of the National Mental Health Committee, spoke highly of his ""unique, unselfish and untiring service . . . under frustrating circumstances, even at the expense of his own health, toward bringing about fuller understanding of the needs of the nation's health.""<br />
""The achievement of his long career and the high esteem in which he was held will be a consolation to you in the years ahead,"" wrote Leonard Scheele, surgeon general, U.S. Public Health Service, with whom Mr. Keefe had dedicated the new cancer wing at Wisconsin General Hospital, Madison, recently.<br />
Among the many other messages received were those from F. J. Sensenbrenner, chairman of the Board of Regents, University of Wisconsin; Robert G Wilke, department adjutant, American Legion; Editor John Chapple, Ashland Daily Press and national president Fighters for MacArthur; Mr. and Mrs. William J. Campbell; Steve Miller, Otis Gomillion and Thomas McCormack, McCarthy Club Committee, and Jack Rouse, GOP leader.<br />
Congressional Record<br />
Proceedings and Debates of the 82d Congress, Second Session<br />
Washington, Wednesday, February 6, 1952 No. 19<br />
THE LATE FRANK BATEMAN KEEFE<br />
The SPEAKER. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Wisconsin .<br />
Mr. VAN PELT. Mr. Speaker, it is with deep sorrow that I bring word of the death of Frank Bateman Keefe, my predecessor, who served as a Member of the Congress, representing the Sixth District of Wisconsin from 1939 to 1951. He suffered a heart attack after delivering an address at Neenah, Wis., Tuesday afternoon and died en route to a hospital.<br />
His passing leaves me with a profound sense of personal loss, just as I am sure it also affects many of you who knew and respected him during his long term of distinguished public service in this House.<br />
Frank Keefe was a truly great American who literally gave his life for his country. He was one of the most conscientious Members of this body, accepting the heavy responsibilities of the office willingly and with unselfish disregard for his personal welfare. His devotion to duty impaired his health and prompted him to retire voluntarily from this body about a year ago. I am certain he was cognizant of the serious nature of his illness but continued to work vigorously since his retirement, for the preservation of this Republic, which he loved so well. He died as he lived, working for this cause, a real champion for Americanism. Prior to his election to Congress, Frank Keefe was an outstanding trial lawyer and served several terms as district attorney in his home community of Oshkosh, Wis. In his first term as a Member of this Congress he was appointed to the important Appropriations Committee and served as chairman of the Federal Security-Labor subcommittee during the Eightieth Congress. Deeply interested in public-health legislation, he devoted much of his great talent and ability to that program. The splendid service now being rendered in this field will long be a monument to his memory. An eloquent orator and a matchless debater, he was recognized as a leader here and was highly regarded on both sides of this aisle. He was a big man, physically and mentally, endowed with strong convictions and high ideals. He will be sadly missed by his many friends, his home community, State, and Nation. I join with you, his former colleagues, in extending my sincere sympathy to his bereaved family.<br />
Mr. SMITH of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, Frank Keefe is gone. There was a man. Those of us who had the privilege of serving with him, know of his great ability. We know of his character. We know of the logic of his mind. And those of us who have opposed him in debate were always conscious of the fact at Frank Keefe knew his facts. During one of the first days after I became a Member of the House of Representatives, Frank talked to me about the activities here, and he said, ""Young man I want to tell you when you get down into the well of the House, know your facts."" We shall never forget his presence here, I am sure, as he often strode down this center aisle, and came into the well of the House. There was hardly a need for a microphone when he spoke --- but always the same serious attack on the problem that he was discussing. He was a big man physically, of course, we know, and his heart was almost as big as his body. There was nothing that he would not do for a friend. He never permitted himself to become cynical. He always believed that somewhere along the line, things would right themselves --- conditions would become better and that this was a great place in which to live.<br />
Frank came up the hard way -- from a humble beginning. As a young lawyer in Winnebago County in Oshkosh, Wis., he was elected as the prosecuting attorney, and soon gained the reputation of being Wisconsin's most fearless prosecutor. I think all of us can understand just how he achieved that reputation. Then a little later, he presented himself as a candidate for Congress. He was defeated in his first attempt, but was returned to the Seventy-sixth Congress and served, I think, through the Eighty-first Congress. His service in this body was of such high caliber that he soon gained a national reputation for ability and integrity. He was sought all over the country as a public speaker.<br />
Frank Keefe was an unusual personality. Whenever he was in committee, at the luncheon table, or in private meetings he always dominated, and not obnoxiously, but by virtue of his clarity of expression and logic. Whatever he undertook it was always with thoroughness and intensity.<br />
I think it can be said that Frank Keefe was a casualty of public service: he died in the service of his people. He gave himself without stint as a Member of this body, and you will recall that when he first became ill it was while he was on his way home from a session of this House. He was at that time was giving unstinted attention to the problem of heart disease and he was a victim of that dread disease.<br />
Frank Keefe has left his impact upon this body; he has influenced my own life considerably. I have personally enjoyed the hospitality of his home; I know the members of his family very well. No words I might say here this morning can add much to the service that Frank Keefe rendered while a beloved Member of this body.<br />
Wisconsin will miss this great American and patriot. So will his own community and the Nation. We cannot afford to lose men like Frank Keefe. There are too few who can replace him. My only prayer, Mr. Speaker, is: ""God give us men like him.""<br />
To Mrs. Keefe and his two daughters and his son my deepest sympathy. May they in their great loss be comforted in knowing that this husband and father has left his imprint on the sands of time.<br />
Mr. MARTIN of Massachusetts. Mr. Speaker, it is with great sorrow I learned this morning of the death of my close friend and associate of many years, the Honorable Frank B. Keefe, of Wisconsin.<br />
Frank Keefe was one of the most outstanding men in recent years in Congress. He was a prodigious worker and had an eloquent and powerful voice which made him almost invincible in debate. He was zealously devoted to the service of his constituents and what was of value to the country.<br />
He was a man who loved to aid the causes of the weak, the infirm, and the afflicted. I recall his heroic battle to aid those who suffered from heart disease, his fight for cancer funds for those afflicted with that dreadful disease and for other humanitarian causes. Frank responded to the great human appeals of mankind and did his best to relieve suffering and make life a little better for those in need. He was Just as strong and vigorous a fighter to make America a strong Nation. He wanted to make the country strong enough so it could stand up unafraid before the world. We have all lost a good friend, a great leader, an outstanding legislator, and a great American. Wisconsin has lost one of its most outstanding citizens. Men like Frank Keefe are not too numerous. We do well to pay homage to a fine and useful life.<br />
To his wife and other members of his family I extend my deepest sympathy in their hour of sorrow.<br />
Mr. HALLECK: Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?<br />
Mr. VAN PELT. I yield to the gentleman from Indiana.<br />
Mr. HALLECK Mr. Speaker, it seems but a few short days ago to us who served with him in the House that the great statesman and outstanding American from Wisconsin Frank Keefe, was among us. When we learned of his decision to quit this body, we were disappointed; we hoped he would stay with us because in his career here we saw the finest example of what real service in this body can mean. Particularly did those of us who welcomed his support in debate here on the floor realize and understand that when he left this body we would lose a strong and able partner in our efforts.<br />
As I watched Frank Keefe and his work here, it was most apparent to me that he had indeed had that early training and experience of which his colleagues from Wisconsin has spoken. He served on the great Committee on Appropriations and on subcommittees of the highest responsibility; he discharged his heavy responsibilities with distinction in the best interests of his country and the people he was privileged to represent. As has been pointed out, he did not confine himself to service on those committees; his interests were much broader than that. He concerned himself with all of the problems that came before the House of Representatives and the Congress of the United States, giving generously perhaps too much so of his energies in the search for solutions to many difficult and perplexing problems. With an alarming frequency, it seems to me, we are being called upon here on the floor to pay our tribute to Members currently among us who are leaving us at the call of death, and, yes, of Members recently among us much too young to die. Possibly it might be better understood by the people of the country whom we are privileged to represent that the conscientious performance of the work here in the House of Representatives is a difficult assignment wearing upon mind, intellect, and physical structure.<br />
Certainly Frank Keefe demonstrated when he was among us his intense devotion to the work of the Congress of the United States. It was obvious to all of us, as he poured his heart, his mind, and his effort into that work, that he was literally burning himself up. Yet what better could be said of any man that in serving his country well he had performed for his Nation a great and useful service, a service of which his family may well be proud, a service from which as they go through the years ahead they can take a great comfort?<br />
I join with my colleagues in mourning the departure of Frank Keefe. I wish he were yet among us, yet with us here in the Halls of the House of Representatives.<br />
Mr. VAN PELT. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Massachusetts .<br />
Mr. McCORMACK. Mr. Speaker, I was saddened and grieved to learn of the death of our beloved colleague, one whom I not only valued as a friend but deeply respected as an individual and as a legislator. I join with my colleagues in the expressions of regret at his death and in the expressions of sympathy to Mrs. Keefe and her children.<br />
I can see Frank Keefe, as I am expressing these few extemporaneous remarks, sitting in the front row here or walking down the middle aisle to the well of the House. I can see him here making one of those masterful, powerful speeches that only Frank Keefe could make.<br />
He was of strong character, and by that I mean a man of strong conviction. We all greatly respect men we meet in our journey through life who are possessed of strong convictions, particularly when those strong convictions follow noble thoughts and high principles. Frank Keefe was one of the most able Members I have ever served with in the House. He had a commanding mind, a commanding figure, and I believe he was one of the finest debaters in the House of Representatives. I respected his ability because I think I engaged in debate with our late beloved friend more than probably any other Member on either side of the House during his period of service here. Whenever I entered into debate with Frank Keefe I knew I was debating with a man of extraordinary ability, a man who would very quickly show the weakness of any argument I might make, but a man who when he asked me to yield, or any of my other colleagues to yield, did so for the purpose of making a constructive contribution, even when he did not agree in whole or in part with the remarks of a Member who had the floor at the particular time.<br />
He was a man with a constructive mind, a man who looked ........"

Nolan who has just been elected president of the Winnebago County Chapter. ""Of course, I've grown up in politics,"" Mrs. Nolan continued, ""and I've been on the Winnebago County Board for 15 years."" (Mrs. Nolan, the only woman ever elected to the Winnebago board, is the chairman of the board's institutions committee and heads the admissions board.) ""And there comes a time, I think, when all of ones accumulated experience in various US areas over many years can be helpful to someone else,"" Mrs. Nolan said. A Marvelous Political Background And her experiences have been marvelous ones. Not many women have her political background. The daughter of Frank Keefe, Republican representative from Wisconsin's 6th District, Mrs. Nolan remembers, ""politics were what we mostly talked about ""while I was growing up."" Her father, in addition to being a banker and a lawyer, was County District Attorney for many years before he was elected to Congress in 1938. He represented the 6th District for 12 years and during that time, Mrs. Nolan, with her mother's encouragement, accompanied her father on his political comings and goings. ""As a matter of fact,"" Mrs. Nolan said, ""when Charles and I were first married, we spent lots of time going back and forth to Washington and working with him and for him. My mother had a family of course, and she was kept busy running the house here and the place in Washington and going back and forth. So she was delighted that I take over the politically-oriented things."" Mrs. Nolan, spends most of her at-home time in her big den-office where a great portion of her father's library lines the walls. On her desk, piled high with books, pamphlets, p a p e r s, magazines and such, is a conspicuously incongruous frisbee. 'It was my Mother's Day present from my daughter who's a freshman at the University of Madison."" In addition to her county board activities, Mrs. Nolan is also a vice president of the Citizen's Advisory Council for WSU-O, a vice president of Lake View Memorial Park, a member of the Lawyer's Wives of Wisconsin (for whom she was instrumental in setting up ""four or five"" county chapters), a charter member of the Curative Workshop, a vice president of the State Council of Catholic Women (she was named Woman of the Year by the Catholic War Veterans & their Auxiliary in 1965), has been a member of the VNA and the Red Cross and a host of other organizations.<br />
Married To A Marvelous Man<br />
""Most of all this has to do with my being married to an absolutely marvelous man who is a great person and an important one in his field."" She referred to her husband, a corporation and probate lawyer here who has just been named a Fellow of the American Association of Probate Lawyers.<br />
""I always kid him that I got my law education the hard way"" Mrs. Nolan said. ""I'd gone to school here in Oshkosh for a while, then transferred to Carleton for my baccalaureate and then went to the University of Wisconsin Law School. But I stopped before I got my degree and married Charles.""<br />
Just back from the federation's national convention in Washington and on her way to the State Convention in Wisconsin Rapids, Mrs. Nolan, who has been the federation's first vice president and is finishing a two-year stint as program chairman, said that as president she'll have for her ""sort-of-motto"", Everett Dirksen's recent ""U for Unity comes before V for Victory.""<br />
Everyone's Opinion Welcomed<br />
""I'm a great respecter of everyone's opinions,"" Mrs. Nolan said. And so are the other women in the Winnebago County chapter. Although we know of definite cleavages some members have worked for a candidate at one time or another and have old loyalties we all want to hear each others' opinions.<br />
""I've got unity on my mind just like Dirksen,"" she continued. ""We'll discuss each candidate back and forth and upside down. But I'd like us to center on one. Some members with definite preferences have told me they would be willing to switch if a better candidate than the one they favor presents himself.<br />
""While the Republican Party is big enough to embrace all areas of opinion, I, personally, am a big believer in majority rule.<br />
A Nucleus of Informed Citizens<br />
""And I believe in a nucleus of informed women. At election time there should be someplace people can go to have issues explained and clarified for them.<br />
""To this intent we have recently opened a Republican Headquarters. It is permanently staffed by volunteers. And last year Mrs. Jarret, who was president then, initiated a campaign bus that traveled all over Winnebago County. It was staffed by volunteers who<br />
answered questions and distributed literature and it was a great success. We plan to repeat it again this year.<br />
""To raise money for these activities,"" Mrs. Nolan said, ""we hold an annual silent auction. And this year there will be a tour of the newly refurbished governor's mansion in July.""<br />
'We work selling tickets for the annual Lincoln's Day Dinner,"" she continued, and we've a special events committee to plan activities through the year. I've a wonderful group of officers working with me and I'm really looking forward to my term.<br />
And there's a wedding coming in July. Wondering how she was going to manage a wedding in addition to all of her various activities, Mrs. Nolan explained. "" Oh, I'm the lucky one this time. It's one of my sons (she has two, plus her daughter), and that's considerably easier."""

International Friendships person to person were termed one of the great benefits of full participation in the program of Rotary International when Mrs. Charles Nolan, Oshkosh, wife of the district governor, accompanied her husband on his official visit to the Oshkosh organization, the chapter which he has served in many capacities during a long period of active membership.<br />
Mrs. Nolan, who was entertained at luncheon by Rotary Anns while her husband met with Rotarians, remarked that she was the first district governor's wife who has been invited to make visits with the area official. Although wives have been invited occasionally in the past, the new policy was credited lo a former district governor whose wife died shortly after he completed his term in office. He contacted all the clubs in the district and recommended that the governor's wife be included in the organization's invitation to their executive.<br />
The district over which Mr. Nolan has jurisdiction includes 46 clubs, and the Nolans have visited 25 of those groups since last April.<br />
An orientation period last spring at Lake Placid, N.Y., illustrated to the Nolans the phenomenon which Mrs. Nolan calls ''Rotary instant friendship"" as the couple met incoming district governors and their wives from 49 countries. Imagination and sincere interest overcame language and culture barriers as lasting relationships grew out of small kindnesses, according to Mrs. Nolan. She told the women that 600 Oshkosh B'Gosh bandanas, provided by the local club, opened communication with innumerable participants among the 328 incoming governors and their wives at the Lake Placid conference, and she spiced her account with amusing incidents precipitated by the bandana offerings.<br />
In a serious note Mrs. Nolan commented that urgent pleas for emergency assistance from various parts of the world were doubly meaningful when she and her husband recalled memories of pleasant moments shared with district governors from the Philippines, England. Japan or Central America.<br />
""The conference was held at the time that Pakistan and India were in a period of very strained relations,"" she reported. ""But there were no incidents at the meeting. Sometimes there were obvious coolness and reservebut no aggressive unfriendliness.<br />
The constraint in difficult situations only illustrated again to the couple the overwhelming ability of individuals to place Rotary ideals above private considerations."

District 30 supervisor<br />
Mrs. Nolan will not seek post<br />
Mrs. Virginia L. Nolan, 531 Hazel St., Winnebago County supervisor for District 30, announced today that she will not seek re-election.<br />
Her husband, Charles, a prominent Oshkosh lawyer is currently a member of the House of Delegates of the American Bar Association.<br />
A member of the County Board since 1952, Mrs. Nolan was the first woman elected to serve in that capacity.<br />
Mrs. Nolan said:<br />
""Although the advent of the county executive has relieved many of the pressures and responsibilities of county supervisors, other commitments now make it inadvisable for me to continue. My busy husband's activities demand much time and travel.<br />
""Also, I was recently elected president of the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh (UW-O) Advisory Board, which anticipates a vital mission in the future of our fine university. This, coupled with running a busy household, dictated my decision.<br />
""I will complete my term of office, hoping to assist in several areas which need finishing.<br />
""The friendships made during these 22 years will always be cherished, and the experiences gained will be available whenever needed. I am grateful to everyone who placed confidence in me and hope I have lived up to their expectations. ""<br />
Secretary of the taxation committee for three years, Mrs. Nolan was vice chairman of judiciary for four years. For 11 years Mrs. Nolan was on the institution committee, eight years as chairman. She was chairman of the special building committee for the new Pleasant Acres Skilled Nursing Home. She was chairman of the admissions board for the home for five years after construction was completed.<br />
Mrs. Nolan was secretary for a number of years of two important County Board committees which set policy the former personnel and coordinating committees. Other committee assignments were: vice chairman of the health committee (at the same Mrs. Nolan was on the Regional Health Advisory Board, Chicago, which involved six states): labor relations committee; secretary the past two years of health and social services; Day Care board and executive committee of ADVOCAP, Inc., as County Board representative, and on the subcommittee that established nutrition centers for the elderly."

Jennifer Kempen, International Training CoordinatorI first joined PRIDE as a sophomore in high school, back in 1996. Back th en I was a shy person and I joined mainly because my friend told me it w as fun. But I have stayed with PRIDE because of the second family it giv es me. It is a big part of my life.I have developed skills in speaking, acting, teambuilding, and many more t hings too numerous to write. Since 1996, I have served two years as a comm ittee head with Kaukauna's PRIDE Team, two years as Kaukauna's student adv isor, an emcee at two Wisconsin State Conferences, a workshop present er at both state and national conferences, two years on the Wisconsin sta te team, one year as the state team advisor, two years as a PRIDE Guide, o ne year as an adult volunteer, and finally, one year as a National Train er for PRIDE Youth Programs. To say the least, I was a little involved.I originally hail from a little place called Hollandtown, Wisconsin. It 's a small farming community in the mid-eastern part of the state. I gr ew up on a dairy farm with my younger sister and younger brother. After gr aduating from high school in 1999, I moved onto Lawrence University in App leton, Wisconsin. I only stayed there through first term of my sophomore y ear, but I learned a lot and had a blast. In February of 2001, I moved fr om my small town in Wisconsin to another small town, only this time, in Mi chigan. In my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, working out, shopping (wh en I have the money), hiking, traveling and anything water sports-relate d. I just coached my first soccer team and that was loads of fun.I love my job and I don't regret moving at all. I am very excited to be t he International Training Coordinator and I look forward to meeting you al l.<br />

Supreme Court Dismisses Judgment Against Little Rapids Company<br />
The state supreme,court today reversed in part, a jury verdict in Judge Edgar V. Werner's circuit court here on May I8, 1931, when John Kline, Kaukauna pulpwood dealer, was awarded damages of $6,- 835.33 from the Little Rapids Pulp company. The jury verdict was set aside and one part of the suit was sent back to the court here for-trial. Kline claimed he purchased 50 share of common stock and 15 shares of preferred stock in the company after an oral agreement with D.L.. Thompson, president of the firm, that the company would give him an option of the sale of wood to the company as long as he was a stockholder, at regular market rates plus a commission of 40 cents per cord. The suit originally was against both Thompson and the company, but Thompson was dismissed as a defendant. The pulp company claimed there was no contract with Thompson, while Kline claimed the company failed to live up to its agreement. The supreme court held there was no agreement between Kline and Thompson and that if there had been it would not be binding on the firm. The court sent bark one portion of the case, involving commissions on about 2.000 chords of wood, for a new trial. It pointed out that there had been no decision by the lower court on this matter.<br />

A movement has been started in Little Chute that promises to develop into quite a sensational affair before it closes between the local priest and the young people and the dance hall owners. Some time ago Joseph VanCamp, who has a dance hall on Main Street, gave out notices that he was going to start up evening dancing parties at his place. This was his decision as the young people felt that Little Chute should be entitled to maintain social dances in the evening as well as other towns. It is claimed that Little Chute is the only place in the state where young people were thus restricted. Hearing of the proposal John Hammen, proprietor of the Hotel Hammen, also announced his intention to follow suit and both had engaged music for their opening parties. It came to the attention of Father Knegtel, pastor of St. John's church. St. John Church has never allowed dancing in the parish since it was organized by Father T. J. Vandenbroek in 1831. Father Knegtel has announced that he will resign before he will allow the rules of the church so long established to be broken and has served such notice on the owners of the two dance halls."

Meet Inc. Innovator: Michelle Mueller<br />
<br />
Co-owner of The Flying Dutchman part of evolving downtown district plan<br />
<br />
By Maureen Wallenfang<br />
Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
<br />
Michelle Mueller is the operating partner of The Flying Dutchman, a restaurant in downtown Little Chute.<br />
<br />
Q You've taken over this restaurant at a time of great change in Little Chute. A windmill is coming. Buildings are being torn down. How does that all affect you?<br />
<br />
A I think it's a great thing that the village is trying to bring back its heritage (with the windmill) if they raise the money, which hopefully happens. There are so many opinions in this town about what's going on. I generally don't give an opinion. For me, what happens happens. I'm just here to keep everybody happy and give them a service. I hope and pray, that for all the work everybody has put in that it goes the way they think it will go.<br />
<br />
Q Tucker's Inn just closed nearby and will be torn down. It was a popular breakfast spot. I see you've added breakfast every day starting today?<br />
<br />
A Yes. We started doing breakfast on Sundays two months ago. With Tucker's closing, it opened the window for us to do it every day.<br />
<br />
Q Is this a huge adjustment for you?<br />
<br />
A It actually ended up being easier than I thought it would be. Obviously, you cook breakfast at home and I have three boys. (However) when my first poached egg order came in I looked it up on the Internet to see how to make a poached egg.<br />
<br />
Q How are you doing overall?<br />
<br />
A I think it's going good. It surely can be better, as it can be anywhere at this point. The economy is so bad and everyone says, ""Are you going to make it?"" I think we're going to make it. It's been almost a year and we're staying afloat. It's exhausting, especially balancing it with my children. It's hard for them. I keep telling them ""I'm not going to fail at this.""<br />
<br />
Q Starting in a recession had to have been tough.<br />
<br />
A And it was summer, which not the best time for a restaurant to begin with. In the last couple of months you can see it start to pick up. We made a lot of changes. My first goal was to get the food under wraps and that's going good. We have a new inexpensive lunch menu that is $3.95 or $4.95. We put up new happy hours.<br />
<br />
Q Are things picking up?<br />
<br />
A Our lunches over the last couple of months are not great, but they're getting there for not having lunch in the building before. We're not open for Monday dinner or Tuesday dinner. Wednesdays and Thursdays are getting there. Our Fridays are amazing. Saturdays are doing good. We just had our biggest Sunday for chicken.<br />
<br />
Q What changes are you going to make going forward?<br />
<br />
A Our goal is to have a gluten free menu and Weight Watchers menu eventually. We're going to start cribbage tournaments and have more wine tastings.<br />
<br />
Q What have you learned about business?<br />
<br />
A I knew it was going to be hard and I prepared myself. There were so many things I learned that I didn't even know existed. All the different taxes to the governments, how much you have to document.<br />
<br />
Q Do your partners help?<br />
<br />
A My dad does the majority of the accounting. Robb lives in Madison and comes back every other week. He's an electrical engineer. He'll wait on people, which makes him a nervous wreck. He does a lot of the handyman stuff. It's a very old building and there's been lots of rewiring and plumbing issues.<br />
<br />
Q And your family helps out?<br />
<br />
A My mom cleans. My kids love to participate. My aunt is an accountant and she comes in to help. My friends offer all the time. The staff is a really good team and I have a lot of support from my family and my friends.<br />
<br />
Q What are your demographics?<br />
<br />
A What makes it fun is that sometimes we'll have a whole bar of elderly people and then we'll have twenty 25-year-olds. Wednesday night the village board comes in. Then the Kiwanis meeting gets done and they'll come in here. It's so random and that's the beauty of it. You never know who's going to be here.""<br />

Rockford Memorial gets first quads in 15 yearsAnn and Matt Forbeck expect to take the four infants home by August.<br />
By ALESHA HARDWICK, Rockford Register StarROCKFORD - Ann Forbeck looks tired as she sits next to her husband in t he lobby of Rockford Memorial Hospital. She sits up straight as she fiel ds question upon question about their mark on the hospital's history.Ann gave birth to quadruplets on June 5. Patrick, Nicholas, Kenneth and He len are the hospital's first set of quads in 15 years.The four, born by Caesarean section, are housed in the high-risk perinat al unit and are expected to go to their Beloit, Wis., home by mid-Augus t. Ann, 32, becomes teary-eyed when she explains that she's submitti ng to the interview in the hospital lobby simply to say ""thank you"" to t he doctors and staff who helped her through the difficult delivery.""I'm still recovering,"" says Ann. The couple went into the experience wi th their eyes open.""We did our research and people are advised of options. A lot of doctors s ay in our situation we should terminate, but we did a lot of soul searchin g. We decided to let God make that decision,"" says Matt, 33, who designs t abletop adventure games for Full Moon Enterprises in Beloit.Like most mothers who carry multiple fetuses, Ann took fertility drugs. Du ring the bulk of her pregnancy, she was on bedrest. Before that, she we nt to work as a social worker for Royce Elementary School in Beloit in a w heelchair, with Matt helping.The Forbecks know their infants have beaten the odds: The cut-off for newb orns to be considered premature is 23 weeks. The Forbeck quads were bo rn at 28. They were born in what doctors call ""a-b-c-d"" order, meaning th ey were delivered from heaviest to lightest.Today, the infants are doing fine and making progress, although there we re complications early on.""There were some minor things that happened. Nick had a lung collapse a nd had to be put on a machine but is doing OK now,"" Matt says.Ann was able to go home the weekend after she gave birth. They drive eve ry day from Beloit to watch the infants' progress.The babies weigh around 2 pounds each; they must weigh around 6 or 7 befo re they can leave.Once home, the couple estimates their diaper budget alone will be $1,0 00 a year.""Wal-Mart has given us a 10 percent discount and neighbors have donated di apers,"" Ann says.The quads will go home to a 3 1/2-year-old brother, Marty, who Ann sa ys is excited about being a big brother.They also have thrilled grandparents. All four joined in the hospital pre ss conference.""I want them to grow big and strong; lots of kisses for them,"" says Marl yn Kolinsky, Ann's mother.After an hour, it's time for the press conference to end. Matt helps An n, wearing a long floral dress, onto a wheelchair. ""Thank you,"" she says a gain, to the doctors, staff and others. Then Matt wheels the new mother ou tside the lobby for the drive back to Beloit."

"I309621","Kunkel","Thomas"," ","Abt 1956","","7 Oct 2010","","Three sisters, three weddings at 3 o'clock<br />
By Thomas Rozwadowski • Gannett Wisconsin Media • October 7, 2010<br />
From the moment they're old enough to clutch a bouquet or hum Wagner's bridal chorus, most girls dream about their wedding day.<br />
Most fathers? They usually aren't brought into the conversation until it's time to fork over the credit card.<br />
But, Tom Kunkel's subconscious works on a mysterious level, which explains why he had a Nostradamus-like premonition three years ago while working at the University of Maryland in College Park.<br />
""It was a very vivid dream taking place at the chapel at the university. I got dropped into the middle of a big, huge wedding. And, I started to realize it was a multiple wedding,"" said Kunkel, in his third year as president of St. Norbert College in De Pere.<br />
""Little did I know until I started marching down the aisle that it was my daughter Katie, my daughter Claire, my daughter Helen and my daughter Grace.""<br />
Well, three out of four ain't bad.<br />
Just as Thomas' dream eerily forecasted, sisters Katie, Claire and Helen Kunkel will walk down the aisle Saturday at Old St. Joseph Church at St. Norbert College for a rare triple-wedding spectacle that begins at 3 p.m.<br />
Youngest sibling Grace, 21, will be present as maid of honor for all three. Mom, Deb, will have the requisite tissues handy —   times three. But, it's nothing compared to the déjà vu Thomas is set to experience when the ceremony starts.<br />
""It'll basically be three circles for him,"" Helen said, laughing at the thought of her dad escorting all three daughters down the aisle in succession. ""He'll walk Katie down first, then he's set to go out a separate set of doors. Then, he'll just loop back around and grab the next one.""<br />
The wedding reception Saturday night also will be on campus.<br />
Siblings stick together<br />
What started as a joke between three sisters turned into a common-sense epiphany that seemed far more intriguing than improbable. After all, the Kunkel sisters had been known to share everything from clothes to jewelry to Barbie dolls growing up, so why not a wedding?<br />
""Oh, my gosh, we share everything,"" said Claire, a high school teacher in Maryland. ""Clothes. Friends. Katie and I had the same first confirmations. We were always celebrating our graduations or birthdays at the same time. We all went to the University of Maryland. Sharing everything is pretty normal for us.""<br />
Yet none of it could have been possible without all three getting engaged in a span of 16 days.<br />
Thomas had an indication something special was brewing while preparing for Katie's graduation from George Mason University School of Law in May 2009. Before leaving, he received a call from Nick Stewart, Katie's boyfriend, about needing to discuss something important —    not-so-subtle code for a life-altering decision of the on-bended-knee variety.<br />
Shortly after, Michael Lindsey, Helen's boyfriend, sent Thomas an e-mail indicating the same cryptic sentiment.<br />
""And, I turned to (Deb) and said, 'You better buckle your seat belt,'"" Thomas said.<br />
The two conversations went as expected —    old-fashioned requests for a father's blessing from two future son-in-laws.<br />
Then came a random phone call from Claire's boyfriend, Sam Kaiser, a few days later.<br />
""We really didn't know about that third one,"" Thomas said. ""But, it was Sam, and he spoke about being in love with Claire and wanting to spend his life with her and how he would like to have my blessing to propose.<br />
""I just started laughing. I mean, I love Sam, and of course, I was delighted. But, I really didn't expect that. It was this bang, bang, bang of engagements. Talk about overwhelming.""<br />
""It really was this kind of perfect storm,"" Helen added. ""My fiance and I had been going out four years at the time. Claire and her fiance were like two, two and a half years. Katie and her fiance were about a year and a half, but they'd known each other all throughout college.<br />
""Really, it was the right moment for everyone. It was the right time in all of our lives.""<br />
If the idea of a triple wedding was a surprisingly easy sell to the sisters, their fiances and their immediate families, it had a confounding effect on the majority of those in their social circle.<br />
""Nobody understood. They were like, 'What?', and I think brushed it off as being ridiculous. When we actually sent out invites and they saw that it was real, I still think they were like, 'Now ... how does this work?'"" Helen said.<br />
""It's one of those things where first glance, yeah, it looks like a normal wedding invitation. Then, you realize, wait, there's six names ...""<br />
""They probably thought it was for a cult wedding,"" Thomas joked.<br />
Details, details, details<br />
A ""one-family stimulus package for Northeastern Wisconsin,"" as Thomas lovingly calls it, the Kunkel wedding is economical in more ways than one.<br />
By uniting all three at a neutral site like St. Norbert, it provides a substantial savings for would-be travelers who likely wouldn't have been able to attend all three separately.<br />
""Our family loves it,"" Thomas said. ""They thought it was funny, but I also think they're very, very appreciative.""<br />
As for the guest list, it isn't as oversized as amateur wedding planners might think. About 300 are expected to be in attendance, well below the church's maximum capacity of around 450.<br />
Each sister will have her own set of bridesmaids and groomsmen, her own priest, her own vows and her own mini-processional (oldest to youngest) with assorted trumpet music. All three bought their ivory dresses —    in an unplanned moment —    from Elaine's Wedding Center in Ashwaubenon. The bridesmaids' dresses are the same navy blue, the flowers orange and yellow. There'll be three wedding cakes, three groom's cakes, three first dances, or as you'd expect, ""pretty much three of everything,"" Helen said.<br />
Individual flourishes are also intact. During the father-daughter dance, Thomas will waltz with each of his girls before her respective husband steps in. Because Michael is in the Navy, his groomsmen will be in uniform and conduct a traditional sword arch for his exit with Helen.<br />
""Our main thing is that we want each couple to feel like it's still their day, and it's not just a big circus,"" Helen said. ""It took me a few days to not be overwhelmed by that idea, too. At first it was like, 'Oh, my God, there are so many people to think about. I don't know if I can do this.' But, once I calmed down and realized it was possible, I got really excited.""<br />
Almost to the finish line<br />
As if the coming week wasn't poised to be crazy enough, in a 24-hour reprieve from the mad dash to the finish line, all three couples were scheduled to fly to New York City on Wednesday for a morning appearance on CBS' ""The Early Show"" today.<br />
The family had previously fielded calls from cable's TLC and other documentary/reality producers as their story gained national attention, but Helen said they wanted to maintain a respectable level of privacy.<br />
""We don't see it as something that's interesting to other people. It's our wedding. So, (the attention is) weird to us, but at the same time, it can also be pretty exciting,"" she said.<br />
Instead, the New York trip is a cherry on top of not only what has managed to be a less stressful journey than expected, but also one that couldn't have shaped up any other way than with three best friends who happen to be sisters' saying ""I do"" on the same day.<br />
""The main thing to remember in all of this is that, yes, the spectacle will be amazing, and it's going to be a wonderful day. But, it's about three couples getting married,"" Thomas said. ""Three couples who are well-suited for each other, love each other and make each other very happy. I couldn't be more delighted that my daughters are all marrying wonderful men.""<br />

Randy T. Lamb, 29, and Ashley R. Luka, 28, died of self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the head Wednesday during a standoff with deputies on U.S. Highway 41<br />
The standoff began after Lamb robbed a town of Vinland liquor store at gunpoint earlier in the day.<br />
Lamb, 29, entered Hank's Paynes Point Liquor, 6392 County Trunk A, at 3:50 p.m. Wednesday and asked to buy lottery tickets. He told the clerk he forgot his wallet, went out to the car and returned with a handgun and demanded money from the clerk, said Winnebago County Sheriff's Capt. David Mack.<br />
The clerk, who described Lamb as acting nervous and strange, gave him an undisclosed amount of money. Lamb left the store and headed south on County Trunk A. The clerk then called 911 and reported being robbed at gunpoint, Mack said.<br />
Law enforcement in the area were alerted of the robbery and a short while later a Winnebago County Sheriff's deputy saw Lamb's vehicle on Country Trunk GG. Mack said the deputy pursued the vehicle and was able to stop Lamb and Luka on Highway 41 beneath the County Trunk Y overpass.<br />
Because the deputy knew there was a handgun involved, he immediately called for backup. During initial attempts to negotiate, the couple refused to cooperate and began making suicidal comments.<br />
The SWAT Team was called and authorities began to shut down Highway 41 between U.S. Highway 45 and State Highway 76. As a result, traffic was backed up for miles in both directions as drivers were rerouted along alternate routes during rush hour. Mack said the closure was made in order to ensure the safety of the public and law enforcement.<br />
""Due to the serverity of the incident, there was clearly no choice other than to shut the entire highway down,"" Mack said.<br />
Authorities continued to negotiate with the couple in an attempt to reach a peaceful resolution, but Mack said the pair continued to make suicidal comments. Throughout negotiations, Mack said it appeared Luka was a willing participant in the events leading up to the standoff.<br />
At 6:10 p.m., nearly two-and-a-half hours after the robbery, SWAT officers heard two gunshots fired from inside the vehicle, Mack said.<br />
Officers approached the vehicle and saw the two had suffered gunshot wounds to the head. Medical personnel were called in and Lamb and Luka were pronounced dead, Mack said.<br />
Detectives from the Oshkosh Police Department were called in to finish the investigation due to the severity of the incident and the close contact SWAT officers had with the suspects.<br />
The move is very common, said Oshkosh Police Capt. Kelly Kent, not only for those reasons, but also because it lends transperancy to the incident.<br />
During their investigation, a team of three Oshkosh Police detectives spoke to witnesses and deputies and reviewed video from the in-squad cameras in the Winnebago Sheriff's deputies' vehicles. The investigation showed that no deputy fired a weapon and Lamb and Luka took their own lives using the one handgun that was in the vehicle, Kent said.<br />
""It's very clearly, and undisputedly, a case of double suicide by self-inflicted gunshot wounds,"" Oshkosh Police Capt. Kelly Kent said. ""And there were no weapons discharged by any of the sheriff's deputies.""<br />
Autopsies were performed Thursday and Kent said he expects to receive the results in the coming weeks.<br />
Lamb and Luka were also suspects in a town of Vinland home burglary where jewelry was taken Tuesday, Mack said. The Winnebago County Sheriff's Office was looking to speak with them about the incident, but had not yet made contact with them, Mack said.<br />
The Oshkosh Police Department continues its investigation into the incident."

Kaukauna couple takes on second food location in Fox River Mall<br />
By Maureen Wallenfang Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
Kaukauna residents Tim and Kristy Lamers own Great American Cookies and Pretzelmaker in the Fox River Mall. Most mall stores are corporately owned, making the Lamers among just a handful of local entrepreneurs who own and operate stores there.<br />
? http://www.postcrescent.com/ic/textalerts.shtml"" target=""new"">Click here to sign up for news, weather and sports text alerts.<br />
Q Why did you buy two existing businesses rather than start from scratch?<br />
A Tim: I wanted to purchase an established business. You can look at the numbers and see what they've done and focus on areas where you can make it grow or make it run more efficiently. People know us as the cookie place in the mall and it's very established. That plays a huge part.<br />
<br />
Q Pretzelmaker's reputation was not as good. Was that more of an uphill battle?<br />
A Tim: I would consider that more of an extremely distressed business. It needed a lot of attention and I knew my work was cut out for me. I knew the risk versus reward. So far it's panning out to be a very good venture.<br />
Kristy: We had good staff behind us. Tim wouldn't have opened it if he didn't have good staff.<br />
<br />
Q Pretzelmaker is from NexCen, the same franchise parent as Great American Cookies. Did they approach you?<br />
A Tim: I would say it was happening more locally. I was hearing from customers and people here in the mall that it was so unfortunate that Pretzelmaker closed. Within two weeks I knew for sure that somebody has to do something about it. So many people liked that product, but unfortunately it wasn't run very well.<br />
Kristy: That's a key point, that the product was always good. It was the staffing and the look of it that were distressed. They had a lot of followers.<br />
<br />
Q There's another pretzel shop in the mall. Was that a consideration?<br />
A Kristy: There are followers of both. There are so many of people who walk this mall and the two survived in the same mall for many, many years prior.<br />
<br />
Q Do all of the new Pretzelmaker stores include Freshens, the smoothie business that you have here?<br />
A Tim: No. That's something we brought on. Other successful franchisees have done it.<br />
<br />
Q Without a deep pockets corporation behind you, you have to weather the ups and downs. Other than adjusting staffing levels, how have you done that?<br />
A Tim: We absolutely avoid the mistakes when times are good or bad. How much money we have tied up in inventory, for example. Because customers pay when they receive the product, we don't have a large account receivable, which is good, but we have to maximize our terms with each one of our vendors. We run lean and efficiently.<br />
Kristy: Between both stores, we don't have a lot of waste. We bake as we go. Our staff has a chart of what sales should be and you bake so much in the morning and so much in the afternoon. At the end of the night, our case is pretty empty and that's because we don't carry over old, stale product. Everything is baked fresh every day. Anything left we donate to the Harbor House.<br />
Tim: With pretzels we save (leftover) product and sell it to a feed mill that grinds it up and gives it to cattle.<br />
<br />
Q Have you determined your demographics for Pretzelmaker?<br />
A Tim: It's 95 percent female. The soccer mom with the kids. Tweens. At Cookies, we see a mixture of people. A lot of guys coming out of Scheels.<br />
Kristy: Part of the reason is the location. A lot of women park at target because they have staples they have to buy, the diapers and the toilet paper, at the end, that they don't want to carry around the mall.<br />
Tim: We're excited that Victoria's Secret took over the spot across the hall. Sales have exceeded our expectations and I feel they will continue once Victoria's Secret opens up.<br />
<br />
Q The Lamers name means you had deep pockets?<br />
A Tim: No. Our families didn't support us financially, but in every other way possible.<br />
<br />
Q Was it tough to get the Pretzelmaker loan?<br />
A Tim: We've not had any problems with the banks. I come in with a very good business plan. It's worked very nicely.<br />
<br />
Q You needed big loans. Six figures?<br />
A Tim: Yes. But we have real estate we leverage against. We also have a low standard of living. We live well below our means.<br />
<br />
Q Did you think twice about opening during a recession?<br />
A Tim: No. It didn't concern me very much because of knowing we're in the mall already. We already have very good positive sales growth over that the past few years. We are very fortunate that the fox River Mall produces a good shopping environment that keeps bringing people back in.<br />
Additional Facts<br />

The Kerrigan Brothers Winery was named for the two black sheep of the Kerrigan family. ""They were my grandmother's brothers and they liked to drink,"" said winery owner Troy Landwehr. ""They were true Irishmen.""<br />
On Saturday, Landwehr opened a new winery named in their honor in Freedom on the site of his grandparents' farm. It's at N2797 State 55, three miles north of U.S. 41. Phone 920-788-1423.<br />
Prior to this, the eight-year-old winery was in a commercial space attached to his parents' home in Little Chute. That site is now closed.<br />
Landwehr plans to develop the new winery in stages and figures the investment, minus land, is around $350,000.<br />
Those who visit at this early point will see the retail shop where they can taste fruit wines and purchase bottles, wine accessories and wine-theme gift baskets. In a month, the wine producing equipment will be moved over from the old location.<br />
""The production facility is 40 percent bigger,"" he said. ""We'll have a 1,000-gallon-a-month capacity.""<br />
Next summer, Landwehr plans on putting in orchards and gardens that will round out his 10-acre property and eventually supply some of the apples, rhubarb, raspberries and gooseberries he uses to make wine.<br />
The slower roll out is necessary because the operation is largely family run. Landwehr is helped by his parents, Dick and Karin, a few part-time production assistants and an army of friends during the bottling season.<br />
Landwehr is also nationally known for his sideline as a cheese carver, and that takes a chunk of time in the summer for both national and local appearances."

Chris Langel was one of four men aboard the Lady Cecilia, a 70-foot vessel that departed from Warrenton, Ore., a seaside city on the state's northwestern point, and went down March 10 about 20 miles west of Leadbetter Point off Washington's southern coast.<br />
The U.S. Coast Guard used boats, helicopters and its monstrous four-engine aircraft to scan an area of more than 640 square miles before calling off the search. A company contracted by the Coast Guard located the Lady Cecilia on Sept. 9.<br />
Petty Officer 3rd Class Nate Littlejohn, a U.S. Coast Guard spokesman, said investigators are examining the wreckage using a camera attached to an underwater rover to determine the cause of the boat's sinking.<br />
Although what caused the vessel to sink remains unclear, Rich Langel and his wife, Deb, want to ensure that such a tragedy never happens to another National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association Fisheries Service observer. Their son was working as an observer contracted by the NOAA and had been living in Oregon for only a couple weeks before the sinking.<br />
Among other duties, NOAA observers collect data on the marine life that is caught either for scientific purposes or to inspect management of the fishery.<br />
The Langels plan to advocate for stronger safety inspections of fishing vessels and for NOAA observers to have better communication with the shore once they're out at sea.<br />
Federal statutes require NOAA observers to check that safety items —  such as distress signals, a life raft and personal flotation devices —  are on board the vessel prior to setting sail. An observer also must verify that the boat has a Commercial Fishing Vessel Safety Decal, which is issued by the U.S. Coast Guard after a safety examination of the boat.<br />
Chris Rilling, manager of NOAA's National Observer Program, said if the boat does not have a current decal, the observer will not board the vessel.<br />
Federal legislation approved in October 2010 will require all commercial fishing vessels operating in waters beyond 3 nautical miles (about 3.4 miles) to be inspected dockside, beginning Oct. 16. The examination is currently voluntary, but boats cannot receive a safety decal without having a Coast Guard official or a third party complete the exam.<br />
Kevin Plowman, a fishing vessel safety examiner with the U.S. Coast Guard, said examiners mainly verify that the boat has all the proper safety equipment on board. They don't inspect the vessel's structure unless there's an obvious sign that the vessel is not fit to sail.<br />
Gannett Wisconsin Media was unable to acquire information on whether Lady Cecilia received a structural examination before setting sail. Regardless, the Langels want more thorough inspections.<br />
""We're going to push to make sure that these boats are going to be examined better before these (observers) go out on them,"" Rich Langel said.<br />
Langel doesn't have a clear plan for how to push for stronger safety inspections, but he plans to contact a local congressman to assist with the advocacy campaign.<br />
The Langels also think observers should have a better way to communicate with the shore once they're out on a vessel.<br />
Rilling said NOAA observers already have a way to communicate with those on land when they're out on the water, whether that's through a satellite phone, a personal cellphone or the ship's radio. Observers also are issued radio beacons that can transmit a distress signal to shore in cases of emergencies.<br />
But Deb Langel thinks NOAA observers should carry some sort of ""cautionary beacon"" —  a way to signal the shore when the observer has an unsettling feeling about being on the boat or are concerned about the captain's or crew's management of the vessel.<br />
Chris Langel was the fifth NOAA observer to die while on deployment since 1990, Rilling said. One of those five deaths occurred onshore.<br />
When Rich Langel learned the U.S. Coast Guard had called off the search for the missing fishing vessel, the grieving father said he couldn't sleep.<br />
To pass the night hours, Langel worked on a wooden model of a fishing boat he had been building for Chris.<br />
""I finished the boat in a week,"" Langel said. ""It probably should have took me two months, but I had to do it for him. I had to finish it for him.""<br />
Chris Langel graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in 2009 with a degree in biology. He participated in a school summer program at the Gulf Coast Research Laboratory in Ocean Springs, Miss.<br />
Deb Langel said her son loved the program, which is coordinated through the University of Southern Mississippi. A memorial fund has been created in memory of Chris at the school. The Langels can choose to have the donated gifts support a student scholarship or the work of faculty and staff.<br />
The couple hope to start a scholarship fund this year for biology students at Kaukauna High School, their son's alma mater. They also hope to create a permanent memorial for Chris, perhaps at 1000 Islands Environmental Center in Kaukauna.<br />
The Langels said their son loved fishing and hunting. At home, a big bass caught by Chris hangs mounted on the wall. A photograph from college shows a smiling Chris holding up a furry, white-headed opossum.<br />
""When we used to take him on camping trips … he caught snakes and frogs and bugs,"" Rich Langel said. ""He just loved nature. That was him. He was part of nature.""<br />
Rich Langel said he might have influenced his son's love for science. The Langels own Richard's Diamonds & Gems, a jewelry store on Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Kaukauna, but before he became a jeweler, Rich was a biology teacher.<br />
The window display of the couple's jewelry store is a tribute to their son. Necklaces, watches and rings are surrounded by ocean blue cloth with wooden ships, seashells and a fishing net.<br />
""He just loved the sea,"" Rich Langel said. ""He just loved … doing his job.""<br />

By AUTUMN GROOMS | La Crosse Tribune<br />
SPARTA, Wis. - Thomas Leis turned 40 in Gyumri, Armenia.To mark the occasion Lida and James Gregorian, his host family, prepared him an Armenian barbecue. For the meal, a trip to the market was in ord er to purchase the necessary ingredients, as there are no supermarkets.Appealing fruits and vegetables were piled high as consumers inspected the ir purchases. Flies were shooed away from the meat as the Gregorians selec ted the barbecue's entree.""Everything was like a picture, except the meat and flies,"" Leis said rece ntly at Sparta's Meadowview Middle School, where he teaches sixth grade.""I watched the family shoo flies away and bring it home. After I made it t hrough that meal, I knew I'd be OK,"" he said.The birthday celebration marked one of the Cashton man's first days in Arm enia this past October. He spent about three weeks in the country visiti ng schools, giving lectures on U.S. culture and teaching methodologies a nd discussing the challenges facing educators in the U.S. and overse as as one of 36 teachers nationwide selected for the U.S.-Eurasia Awards f or Excellence in Teaching Program.A program of the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultur al Affairs, it was established in 1996 to recognize the achievements of U. S. teachers while providing them with an opportunity to utilize their tale nts and expertise to improve the quality of secondary education in Euras ia and create learning partnerships between U.S. and Eurasian schools.<br />
Leis was hosted by the Gregorians because Lida had won the Asian part of t he program and spent seven weeks teaching in California.<br />
By the end of his birthday meal, Leis said, everyone was singing, which ev entually led to arm pumping, pinky grabbing and dancing.<br />
""I thought it was just something for the occasion,"" Leis said of the danci ng. But as he would soon learn, the singing, dancing, eating and large fam ily gatherings are just a part of the Armenian culture.<br />
When they marry, Armenian women move in with their husband's family and ha ve many generations living under one roof.<br />
""It was neat as a teacher,"" he said. ""Here we have so many kids who ha ve no one to go home to, but in Armenia there is an aunt, an uncle, a gran dma - always someone there. I admire that tradition.""<br />
Gyumri was at the epicenter of an earthquake in 1988 that killed 25,0 00 of its people. Homes, factories and schools were destroyed, leaving t he community without electricity for five years. Residents lived in tra in cars as they couldn't afford to rebuild their homes. Some are still liv ing in them today.<br />
To find work many have family members who go to countries such as Russia f or weeks, months or years at a time. The Gregorians are one of those famil ies. Their two daughters and grandchildren live with them and their son-in -law, who has a degree in law, works at a plastic bag factory in Mosco w. He earns $300 a month, sends $200 to his wife and children and liv es on the other $100.<br />
""I assumed the people of Armenia would want to live just about anyplace el se, but that's not the case,"" Leis said. ""They have such an allegian ce to their country and are proud of their homeland that leaving is not so mething the masses want to do.""<br />
Leis went with James and Lida to School 18, which housed grades K-10. Clas ses met Monday through Saturday for four to four-and-a-half hours. The ele mentary grades would come in the morning and the high school-age studen ts would come in the afternoon so lunch would not need to be served, Le is said.<br />
Their classrooms were very basic with old, old chalkboards, no lights, o ld maps and no paper, he said.<br />
In the elementary classrooms, Leis never worked alone. He taught with Lid a. One teaching method that proved popular with the Armenian children w as a geography lesson with the new state quarters. Before Leis left Wiscon sin, he picked up $200 worth of state quarters.<br />
With their new souvenir quarters in hand, he had the students come up to t he map and identify Wisconsin.<br />
<br />
""It was an inexpensive souvenir,"" he said.<br />
The upper-level students at the university were interested in talking wi th Leis about customs, culture, teen life and politics as the November pre sidential election was nearing. They also were interested in whether the A merican would want to live in Armenia.<br />
""I told them no, I am an American,"" he said. ""But I do want my wife and da ughters to see this and know how different life is.""<br />
To continue the bond Leis forged with School 18 and the Gregorians, he org anized an Armenian Book Collection at Sparta Meadowview. Books including "" Harry Potter"" and ""The Boxcar Children"" soon will make their way an oce an away. Leis also plans to find a way to help Lida and her endeavors.<br />
Leis said he plans to find more experiences like the TEA Program and pla ns to apply for the Japan Fulbright Memorial Fund Teacher Program, which w ould allow him to spend three weeks of his summer in Japan.<br />

By ED HOSKIN Of the Tribune staff TUNNEL CITY, Wis. - Monroe County investigators were enroute to a eastern Wisconsin city late Friday to question two suspects in the firearm-related deaths of a mother and son from rur al Tunnel City. The victims, who hadn't been named Friday, are a m an in his early 50s and a woman in her early 70s. The man's body was found on a roadside near his farmhouse at about 7:20 a.m. Friday by a school bus driver. Neighbors said the woman's body was found in the farmhouse, and the victims are a mother and son.   Right now we're calling it death by suspicious circumstances,'' said Sgt. Jason Westpfahl of Monroe County Police. He  wouldn't confirm if the victims had been shot, but  we belie ve there was a firearm involved.'' The two suspects were picked up Friday afternoon by polce in an eastern Wisconsin county, Westpfahl said. Monroe County Police had asked other agencies for help in finding a black Ford Mustang seen near Tunnel City by residents in the last few day s. The victims' farmhouse is in the town of LaGrange, in northern Monroe County.    I think it's a big break,'' Westpfahl said of the supects' apprehension.  It helps us out quite a bit. The vehi le was spotted in the area by neighbors in the last coup le of days. It was odd because the farming community isn't used to a  ot of vehicles being around.'' Authorities seized the car. Westpfahl wouldn't say if the suspects had been charge d, nor release their names. He said he didn't know if anythi ng was taken from the victims' farmhouse.  Not to my knowledge, b ut we're not sure either way,'' he said.   We don't have a motive at this point in time,'' he ad ded. He said the victims apparently lived together, but wouldn't con firm their relationship. The bodies were taken to the Wisconsin Division of Crim inal Investigation crime lab in Madison. More information sh ould be released today after a state pathologist performs autopsies, Westpfahl said. Names were withheld Friday until relati ves were notified. The bus driver that found the man's body stopped the b us and went to check for a pulse, said the father of two child ren on the school bus, John Gasper. The driver then parked the b us a little down the road so that students couldn't view the bod y, Gasper said his children had told him.   We've lived here for 43 years,'' said rural Tunnel Ci ty resident Lois Von Haden.  This is a quiet neighborhood and for something to happen to our neighbors makes us wonder.'' The man's body was found about 50 feet from the e nd of his driveway. A relative of the victims contacted Friday night said s he knew very little about the circumstances.    I don't know what was going on,'' she said.  I can 't see any rhyme or reason.'' The suspects could be brought to Monroe County over the weekend, Westpfahl said. Wisconsin law allows anyone be ing held to be transported across the state without extradition proceedings, he said. Tunnel City is a old railway stop with a population of less than 200 people.    It's not expected in this county,'' Westpfahl said.  It happens to us, but people aren't used to having this kind of thing happen in their midst. It's a shock to people.'' Tribune reporter Bob Gutsche Jr. contributed to this report.<br />

Girlfriend of accused testifies By ED HOSKIN Of the Tribune staff SPARTA, Wis. - A girlfriend of one of two teen-agers ch arged with double homicide and burglary testified Tuesday she acco mpanied her boyfriend to the victims' home the day before the s layings in an aborted robbery attempt. The 14-year-old girl said her boyfriend, Jimmy L. Grime s, 18, tried to make Evelyn Leis, 85, leave her home because he thoug ht there was a lot of money in the house. By threatening to sho ot Leis, Grimes forced the girl to knock on the door and ask f or a ride into town, the girl testified in a preliminary hearing in Mo nroe County Circuit Court. With Grimes hiding nearby, the scheme failed when Le is offered use of her telephone instead of a ride, the girl said.   He said he'd come back another day,'' the girl said G rimes told her. Grimes and Daniel F. Cerney, 16, both of Berlin, Wis ., are accused of killing Leis and her 51-year-old son, William Lei s, on the night of Oct. 7 or in the early hours of Oct. 8. William Leis' b ody was found the next morning sprawled on the side of a road outsi de his home at 10094 Elk Road in the town of La Grange, and Evelyn Le is was found shot dead in a bathroom in the home. The girl, who is a suspect with Grimes and another juve nile in two other burglaries in the area reported on Oct. 6, did n ot say whether William Leis, who was Grimes' mentor, was at home on Oc t. 6. Prompted by defense questioning, the girl said authorit ies told her she wouldn't be tried as an adult on the pending burgla ry charges if she agreed to cooperate with them and tell the truth. She also testified she was at Grimes' Berlin home wh en the two homicide suspects arrived between 3 and 4 a.m. on Oc t. 8. After helping Grimes and Cerney carry guns from a car into t he house, the girl said she asked them what had happened that nig ht. At first, the two teen-agers didn't want to talk abo ut it, but Cerney then chose to share some details, she said.  He sai d, Our plan went wrong, you weren't there, you don't know what happ ened... we had to shoot them,' '' she said. The girl said Grimes and Cerney split $500 taken from t he Leis family home. She said she asked Grimes if he'd left any finger prints at the scene, and Grimes said only on a gun he had thrown in to a nearby cornfield. Police recovered a handgun from a cornfield alongside E lk Road. Grimes and Cerney were appearing at a joint prelimina ry hearing Tuesday. Bonds were again denied by Judge Steven Luse A bbott, who said:  If ever there was a case to deny bond, th is would be it. There is a need to protect the public from this so rt of behavior.'' Earlier in the preliminary hearing, Monroe County inves tigators described the crime scene and an interview with Cern ey following his arrest in Berlin. Both teen-agers are charged wi th two counts of first-degree homicide and two counts of burglary, and C erney will be tried as an adult. Detective Eric Matson said Cerney admitted his involvem ent, and said Grimes shot William Leis first and then allowed Ce rney  to finish him off.'' Evelyn Leis was shot by Grimes, Mats on said Cerney had told him. Under cross examination from Cerney's attorney, John Br inckman, Matson testified that Cerney also said Grimes threaten ed to  blow his brains out'' if he didn't participate in the robber y. Each wearing leg irons and clad in orange jail suits, n either Cerney nor Grimes spoke during the hearing. They were led in a nd out of the courtroom in handcuffs. Grimes, who is unemployed, recently moved to Berlin fr om the Tomah, Wis., area after completing a 22-week boot ca mp program for troubled youths. Cerney is a junior at Berlin Hi gh School. Grimes' attorney, John Matousek, stepped down as his de fense counsel on Tuesday. Matousek said Grimes couldn't affo rd the legal bills necessary to mount a defense, and he would be bet ter represented by the public defender's office.  Arraignments were set for 11 a.m. Friday."

<br />
KIMBERLY –  Snuggled in a hand-tied fleece blanket, a female veteran with terminal cancer prepared for takeoff Christmas Eve from Austin Straubel International Airport on what likely would be her last flight home.<br />
And she smiled.<br />
Aubree Leitermann, 10, of Kimberly, also smiled later that evening, knowing she had warmed the woman's heart with a blanket she made.<br />
""I saw a picture of her with my blanket and it was … her favorite color,"" she said.<br />
Aubree has made more than 150 blankets for veterans using Express Air Medical Transport service out of Green Bay and Tampa, Florida. The Mapleview Intermediate School fifth-grader got the idea while listening to her great-aunt Jill Hanson, flight coordinator with the transport company, share stories about the veterans they serve.<br />
Express Air Medical Transport service flies recovering veterans home as well as veterans going home to die, said Brian Saunders, pilot-in-training and director of the company's Midwest sales and marketing.<br />
""You're doing your part for the family and for them,"" Saunders said.<br />
Aubree wanted to do the same. ""We just thought (the blankets) would help them feel safe and comfortable and feel more happy on their flight, too,"" she said.<br />
Aubree initially made four blankets in November.<br />
""We took a picture of her with one blanket and a jar (asking for donations) and posted it on my Facebook page,"" said Aubree's mother, Nicole Leitermann. ""I said, 'Aubree would make more blankets if we got more donations.' And the next morning people starting giving her more money.""<br />
""It was nice because it kind of gave us a springboard knowing we could get … the ball rolling,"" Heier said. ""All the funds went to purchasing the materials, the fabric itself … which we just got last week. To see her so passionate has really been something special to be a part of.""<br />
Financial donations continue to trickle in from across the country from people viewing Aubree's Blankets for Veterans Facebook page.<br />
A blanket takes 45 minutes to make, but Aubree hasn't done it completely on her own. Her mother and father, Steve, work together to assemble blankets. Friends from Footworks Dance Company in Darboy and extended family also help.<br />
Once a blanket is completed, a tag is attached that reads: ""Thank you for your service to our country. Here is a small token of appreciation for you to enjoy.""<br />
Aubree is humble about the project.<br />
""She's just happy to do it,"" Hanson said."

So hopes the 22-year-old Little Chuter who, with family and friends, has grand plans for a corner building on Main Street at Grand Avenue they are renovating.<br />
Seth's Coffee and Bake Shop will specialize in European-style coffee and pastries. With opening scheduled toward month's end, Lenz wants locals to know his gourmet coffee house and bakery will be more than a place to grab a drink and go.<br />
His goal is to recreate for young people, especially, the atmosphere of the cafes he visited when he was in Europe three years ago.<br />
""People go and sit at a cafe for an hour or two over an espresso and a little pastry. I love that,"" he said. ""I love the idea of being able to connect with somebody and not have to have alcohol. Just sit and talk and connect.""<br />
The son of Bill Lenz, senior pastor at Christ the Rock Community Church, Seth Lenz traveled to Europe for a yearlong Bible school program.<br />
He split his time between northern England and Austria. In between, he and a friend bought a car and went on a month-long road trip through Spain and Italy stopping in the little cafes.<br />
Such were his impressions, when he returned to the states he started to educate himself and plot his business plan.<br />
Lenz went to work at a cafe in Santa Barbara, Calif., and took baking courses at a community college during spring 2007. Upon his return to the Fox Cities, he enrolled at Fox Valley Technical College's culinary program.<br />
Then credit standards tightened.<br />
""Nobody would talk to a 22-year-old trying to start a business,"" Lenz said.<br />
His breakthrough came in April. Personal investors stepped up just as the building he was interested in became available for lease. Three months later, his father vouched for him as village leaders reviewed a $30,000 loan for remodeling purposes. It worked.<br />
""He seemed like a very determined person,"" said Joshua Funk, 23, a friend from New York who monitored his progress and in July flew in to help paint the walls in white and chocolate brown.<br />
He has had a full schedule, and community members have taken note.<br />
Bill Lenz recalled a conversation with the building's owners, Paul and Monica Renkens.<br />
""They said, 'I've never seen a kid work harder and be more excited about this.' He is living out his dream.""<br />
The coffee house is across from the recently renovated Flying Dutchman. Its first sales of warm cinnamon rolls and scones could come amid heavy construction a block west.<br />
That's the site of the windmill and visitor center.<br />
""I really want to see the downtown do well. It's already starting to look better with hopes the windmill (will) do some good things for the downtown,"" Lenz said.<br />
He, too, seeks to play off of the village's cultural and architectural heritage. He has gutted the building to expose its original ceiling panels and wood floor.<br />
""It's kind of a cool way to tie in the old with the new,"" he said.<br />
Little Chute Windmill officials have been talking about being his flour provider.<br />
When the windmill opens in 2010, one of its features is that it will grind grains.<br />
""This is kind of my dream as well,"" said Stephan Witchell, Lenz's roommate.<br />
The two have been inseparable during the building's makeover.<br />
""This is for the people of Little Chute,"" Witchell said. ""He was raised here. The Lenz name is well known.""<br />

GREEN BAY  - Gasoline being poured into the tank of a tractor on a farm in rural Seymour Thursday caught fire and exploded, burning an elderly man and setting fire to two farm buildings. Joseph Liebhaber Sr., 76, suffered third degree burns over much of his body and was taken to Green Bay Hospital. The fire destroyed a machine shed in which the tractor was housed, a brooder, piles of lumber and several pieces of farm machinery. There was no estimate of loss. Neighboring farmers hauled water to the scene to help put out the flames. They managed to save a barn. Raw gasoline apparently spilled on the tractor battery, causing the fire and blast.<br />

Randy T. Lamb, 29, and Ashley R. Luka, 28, died of self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the head Wednesday during a standoff with deputies on U.S. Highway 41<br />
The standoff began after Lamb robbed a town of Vinland liquor store at gunpoint earlier in the day.<br />
Lamb, 29, entered Hank's Paynes Point Liquor, 6392 County Trunk A, at 3:50 p.m. Wednesday and asked to buy lottery tickets. He told the clerk he forgot his wallet, went out to the car and returned with a handgun and demanded money from the clerk, said Winnebago County Sheriff's Capt. David Mack.<br />
The clerk, who described Lamb as acting nervous and strange, gave him an undisclosed amount of money. Lamb left the store and headed south on County Trunk A. The clerk then called 911 and reported being robbed at gunpoint, Mack said.<br />
Law enforcement in the area were alerted of the robbery and a short while later a Winnebago County Sheriff's deputy saw Lamb's vehicle on Country Trunk GG. Mack said the deputy pursued the vehicle and was able to stop Lamb and Luka on Highway 41 beneath the County Trunk Y overpass.<br />
Because the deputy knew there was a handgun involved, he immediately called for backup. During initial attempts to negotiate, the couple refused to cooperate and began making suicidal comments.<br />
The SWAT Team was called and authorities began to shut down Highway 41 between U.S. Highway 45 and State Highway 76. As a result, traffic was backed up for miles in both directions as drivers were rerouted along alternate routes during rush hour. Mack said the closure was made in order to ensure the safety of the public and law enforcement.<br />
""Due to the serverity of the incident, there was clearly no choice other than to shut the entire highway down,"" Mack said.<br />
Authorities continued to negotiate with the couple in an attempt to reach a peaceful resolution, but Mack said the pair continued to make suicidal comments. Throughout negotiations, Mack said it appeared Luka was a willing participant in the events leading up to the standoff.<br />
At 6:10 p.m., nearly two-and-a-half hours after the robbery, SWAT officers heard two gunshots fired from inside the vehicle, Mack said.<br />
Officers approached the vehicle and saw the two had suffered gunshot wounds to the head. Medical personnel were called in and Lamb and Luka were pronounced dead, Mack said.<br />
Detectives from the Oshkosh Police Department were called in to finish the investigation due to the severity of the incident and the close contact SWAT officers had with the suspects.<br />
The move is very common, said Oshkosh Police Capt. Kelly Kent, not only for those reasons, but also because it lends transperancy to the incident.<br />
During their investigation, a team of three Oshkosh Police detectives spoke to witnesses and deputies and reviewed video from the in-squad cameras in the Winnebago Sheriff's deputies' vehicles. The investigation showed that no deputy fired a weapon and Lamb and Luka took their own lives using the one handgun that was in the vehicle, Kent said.<br />
""It's very clearly, and undisputedly, a case of double suicide by self-inflicted gunshot wounds,"" Oshkosh Police Capt. Kelly Kent said. ""And there were no weapons discharged by any of the sheriff's deputies.""<br />
Autopsies were performed Thursday and Kent said he expects to receive the results in the coming weeks.<br />
Lamb and Luka were also suspects in a town of Vinland home burglary where jewelry was taken Tuesday, Mack said. The Winnebago County Sheriff's Office was looking to speak with them about the incident, but had not yet made contact with them, Mack said.<br />
The Oshkosh Police Department continues its investigation into the incident."

Brussels CheesemakeR Loses His Life Trying to Save Young Women BODIES ARE RECOVERED Doctors Work for Hours Trying to Save Two of the Victims<br />
Three Kaukauna girls and a Brus- sels cheesemaker were drowned in Green bay, about 4 1 2 miles north of Sturgeon Bay, Sunday afternoon Ann Maes, 18, daughter of Mrs.. Anna Maes, 907 Lawe-st, Kaukauna, and Carol and Mildred Smith, l5 and 17, who had been living with their uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Har- tin Holmes, Lawe st. Kaukauna, since the death of their mother, 12 years ago, lost their lives when they slid off a treacherous sand bar not far from shore. William Wachholz, a cheesemaker, who was attending a picnic with his wife and their child, heard the children scream and rushed out to save them, but he also slid off the bar and was drowned. All the bodies have been recovered. The drownings occurred about 2 o'clock.<br />
The Maes girl was the first to get into difficulty. Miss Maes, the Smith, girls and Rosemary Hoyman, 12. were, in the water together when Miss Maes suddenly slid off tha bar and went down screarming. It is believed the Smith girls attempted to save her and they went down, but Miss Hoyman, still floundering in the water, was rescued by Stoffey Sturgenroth, Sturgeon Bay. Mrs. Mary Hoyman, Rosemary's mother and the girl's aunt. Miss Elizabeth Schlude, had been in the water with the girls. Miss Schlude had been on the bar with the girls' and bad just returned to shore when she heaid the screams. Accompanied by Wacholz she dashed into the water and grasped the Maes girl but she could not hold her. Wachholz waded out to the girls and was pulled beyond his depth. He was unable to swim. Carol could swim a little but was not proficient. The water on top of the bar was very shallow but the sand droppe-1 off abruptly into the? biy and it is believed the Maes girl slipped off into deep water. The bodies of Miss Maes and Mildred Smith came to the top of the water within ten minutes after they disappeared but coast guardsmen dragged for several hours before the bodies of Carol Smith and Wacholz were recovered. Doctors worked over the Maes girl and Mildred for two hours in an effort to restore life. The girls had been working in the Martin Orchard Co. cherry orchard, the largest in the world, for about three weeks. They expected to return next week. The Smith girls had been annual workers in the orchard for several years. They were bathing in Green bay about a mile from the orchard. Funeral services for Miss Maes will be held Wednesday morning at Holy Cross church. She is survived by her other two sisters, Sister Mary Cyril of Racine and Josephine of Kaukauna; two brothers, Henry and Herman, Kaukauna. Miss Maes graduated from Kaukauna high school last June as salutatorian of her class. Arrangements had not been completed this morning for burial of the Smith sisters. Their father, Dexter Smith, is in Syracuse, N. Y. and their brothers, Russell and Harlan, are in Ithaca, N. Y. and Madison, Wis.. Carol was a sophomore and Mildred was a junior in Kaukauna high school.<br />

APPLETON - Pieces of the past are all that remain. Newspaper clippings. History books. An old gravesite.<br />
Joe Gaerthofner, a self-professed historian, walked through Riverside Cemetery on Thursday holding manila folders filled with gray photographs, copied news articles and other papers that are part of his personal research. Wind whipped the tree tops overhead. ""We know in the cemetery ... they have almost 300 people buried here who participated in the Civil War,"" Gaerthofner said. The sales consultant from Nordon Business Environments in Appleton began his research on the city's connection with the Civil War about five years ago - a deep curiosity that sprang from walks in the graveyard with his wife and small son. This June will be his third year hosting the cemetery's Civil War tour - an event of his creation sponsored by a local history museum. During the walk, he tells stories of those who fought in the War Between the States - tales of Appleton men and others who now rest forever in the Riverside ground.<br />
On Thursday, Gaerthofner stood in the cemetery's Block E, a curved plot on the southwest side where a gray stone monument rises over green grass and proclaims a family name: MARSTON. Three sides of the monument list names and dates. Among them: ""J.H. Marston 1829 - 1920.""<br />
This is one man - one story - Gaerthofner knows and focuses on in his tour. The historian can rattle off the facts and share the tales - the small details he calls the ""puzzle"" pieces that, with enough research, can paint a small picture of the past.<br />
This Memorial Day, Americans will take part in remembering that past while honoring soldiers who lost their lives in service to the nation. During tomorrow's national day of remembrance, flags will be flown and stories will be shared - ways to ensure the sacrifices are not forgotten.<br />
""We can all learn from other people's stories,"" said Matt Carpenter, deputy director of the History Museum at the Castle in Appleton. Carpenter said people can connect both ""intellectually and emotionally"" to the lives of those who came before us. ""When we connect to those lives, we enrich our own lives,"" he said.<br />
Barbara Cross of Redondo Beach, Calif., says it's interesting to learn about one's own connection to history - that is, examining the family line. The 53-year- old, who majored in history and political science at the University of Wisconsin- Madison, says she's dabbled in genealogical research.  ""I think it's a curiosity about our roots and where we come from,"" Cross said. ""What makes us what we are.""  Cross lived in Wisconsin before moving to California about three decades ago. She is the great-great-granddaughter of Joseph Hilton Marston - the man whose story Gaerthofner has come to know.<br />

An old, tattered book with an original copyright of 1888 sits among other literature taking readers back to the 1860s, when American brothers faced each other on the battle lines. The title: ""Soldiers' and Citizens' Album of Biographical Record."" It is here one finds a simplified version of Marston's war tale - just a small piece of an adventurous life that stretched 91 years, 3 months and 21 days.<br />
At the end of the two-page biography is a note attributed to Marston himself: ""The foregoing statements I have carefully examined and so far as they relate to my record they are correct. (Signed) J. H. Marston.""<br />
The details outlined in the book, while few, are engrossing. It says Marston was a captain in Company E, 6th Wisconsin infantry. He partook in several well-known conflicts, including battles at South Mountain and Antietam in Maryland in 1862, and at Gettysburg in Pennsylvania in 1863.<br />
""He was wounded three times throughout the course of the war,"" Gaerthofner said. The ""Biographical Record"" tells of a sprained ankle at Gettysburg, a gunshot wound to his left leg at Antietam and a shot to the head at South Mountain - at least one incident that led to the false publication of Marston's death.<br />
""I know he was in a lot of different battles and was reported killed twice,"" said Joseph H. Marston III, the 89-year-old great- grandson of the captain who now lives in San Marcos, Calif.<br />
False reports of death seem to run in the family. According to burial records at Riverview Cemetery, Marston III died in the early '90s. The 89-year-old California man clarified it was his son, Marston IV, who died of ""acute leukemia"" in 1991. The Post-Crescent informed the cemetery of the mistake. Only the burial record is incorrect; the grave marker at the Marston family plot has Marston IV.<br />
War days Capt. Joseph H. Marston was born in New Hampshire on June 1, 1829, and as a teenager, moved to Wisconsin with his parents, George Marston and Lucretia Hilton - both of whom are also buried at Riverside. (Joseph Marston's burial record lists his mother's name as ""Lucrepia"" Hilton.)<br />
Soon after war broke out in April 1861, Wisconsin Gov. Alexander Randall made a rally call for volunteers. In the April 27 edition of Harper's Weekly, Randall's telegraph response to the U.S. Secretary of War's request for men is published: ""The call for one regiment will be promptly responded to, and further calls when made."" A Civil War regiment was made up of about 1,000 men.<br />
""Marston was one of these guys who originally volunteered,"" Gaerthofner said. Not only that, Marston played a key part in organizing the men of Appleton into a company - a group of 100. Gaerthofner said they came up short with only about half that number.<br />
According to the 1990 book ""In the Bloody Railroad Cut at Gettysburg,"" Marston, a tall gentleman of over 6 feet (who eventually earned the nickname ""Tall Sycamore"") gathered the volunteers in spring 1861 and headed off to a train depot. The book publishes an account from one recruit who wrote that ""pretty nearly the whole of Appleton followed the band to the station, where the final goodbyes were said, and when the train started, cheered, waved handkerchiefs, and either smiled through tears or felt like doing so.""<br />
Perhaps one of the most interesting stories related to Marston's war service comes from an article published in the Milwaukee Sunday Telegraph on April 24, 1881 - two decades following the first gunfire at Fort Sumter in South Carolina.<br />
Marston describes how the 6th Wisconsin regiment - a group that was part of the state's famous ""Iron Brigade"" unit - was swept into a bloody battle at a railroad cut during the first day at Gettysburg. Marston' s group attacked a Confederate regiment from Mississippi.<br />
""In this charge, I ordered a (Mississippi) captain to give me his sword, or hand it to Lyman White, of my company,"" Marston wrote. When Marston heard orders of a Confederate surrender, he quickly stopped one of his men from stabbing the Mississippi captain with a bayonet.<br />
In the Telegraph article, Marston said he wished to find the captain and give back the sword. ""If this communication should reach this officer ... I will return him this sword,"" he wrote. No record exists of whether the weapon was returned.<br />
There also is a story of how Marston was taken prisoner for a brief time at Gettysburg while seeking treatment at a makeshift hospital, Gaerthofner said, but there's ""nothing substantial"" to support that tale. According to the ""Biographical Record,"" the captain was held prisoner from the evening of July 1, the first day of battle, until July 4, when he escaped and returned to Union lines. The account does not provide any other details.<br />
Gaerthofner said Marston would come back to Appleton during the course of the war to hold fundraisers and recruit men. He was e ventually discharged from service in March 1864 for disability. When news of Lincoln's assassination reached Wisconsin in April 1865, Gaerthofner said ceremonies were held, and Marston was one of the men leading the procession up and down the main avenue.  ""The experience of Appleton (in the Civil War) kind of began and ended with Joseph Marston,"" he said.  A full life lived. The captain went on to run a wagon stock company, and served as Appleton's mayor for two terms. An obituary copied from The Appleton Post-Crescent is attached to Marston's burial records. According to the Sept. 23, 1920, obituary, Marston died at his home, 769 Kimball St. The address no longer exists.<br />
On Thursday, Gaerthofner stood near the Marston grave plot where more than 15 family members are buried. The historian mentioned how the captain did not have a Civil War marker like other soldiers.<br />
""I think it shows a lot about Marston himself being a humble guy,"" he said.<br />
Perhaps Marston's life wasn't defined by the three years he spent as a volunteer soldier. Perhaps his true accomplishment was the legacy he passed on - the Marstons that rest beside him at Riverside Cemetery and the present generation that keeps his memory alive.<br />

Whatever Americans think of the Grand Chute native and former senator, it's not lost on us that ""no man in Appleton  -  or Wisconsin  -  history has left such a mark on the national and international scene in such a short space of time,"" as one editorial from The Post-Crescent put it after McCarthy's death in May 1957 at age 48.<br />
Now, 60 years after his passing, McCarthy  -  of the political and controversial crusade against alleged communists during his time in the U.S. Senate in the 1950s  -  is back in the news, his name being referenced in today's heated political climate. President Trump referred to McCarthyism in one of his late-night tweetstorms and others have broached McCarthy's name in debates over illegal immigration and travel bans.<br />
""It's like McCarthy is hot again,"" said Jerald Podair, a history professor at Lawrence University.<br />
McCarthy is the subject of two books that are in the works from noted authors.<br />
Former Boston Globe journalist-turned-author Larry Tye is on the hunt for fresh stories about McCarthy, a former grocer, boxing coach and chicken farmer in an Irish-Catholic family who rose to be one of the most infamous politicians in American history.<br />
Another author planning a book on McCarthy is Wisconsin native David Maraniss, a Washington Post editor and biographer who's written about Barack Obama, Al Gore and Green Bay legend Vince Lombardi. Maraniss did not respond to requests from USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin about his plans but has been discussing the book project on social media.<br />
Tye's previous book on Bobby Kennedy partly sparked his interest in McCarthy. Little do some know, Kennedy and McCarthy ""not just worked together but were friends,"" Tye said in a phone interview with USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin. ""That intrigued me.""<br />
Records from McCarthy's closed-door hearings were made public in recent years  -  documents that could provide insights on McCarthy that weren't available for earlier biographies, Tye said.<br />
But mostly Tye hopes to connect with people who knew McCarthy personally, whether as a friend, foe, journalist or acquaintance.<br />
""This is the last shot for people who are still alive, and partly a feeling that the world today deserves to have what may end up being the last take on McCarthy,"" he said.<br />
Tye's first trip to Wisconsin for research on the book  -  a two-week visit in February  -  proved helpful. Tye connected with McCarthy relatives and friends, former Post-Crescent journalists, curators at the History Museum at the Castle, former politicians and the current homeowners of the McCarthy homestead in Grand Chute, among others.<br />
""They just have been really responsive whether they liked Joe McCarthy or hated Joe McCarthy,"" Tye said. ""People want to tell the story and get their side out to make sure the book is fair.""<br />
Connections from McCarthy to today<br />
Historians are largely attributing the recent interest in McCarthy to his ties  -  both personal and ideological  -  to the candidacy and election of Trump.<br />
Trump was mentored in the 1970s and 1980s by Roy Cohn, who's been called the ""right-hand man"" to McCarthy. The question remains, though, how significant Trump's apprenticeship under Cohn was, said Matt Carpenter, the executive director for the History Museum at the Castle in Appleton.<br />
""Is it a minor story?"" Carpenter said. ""Would Trump say he learned from the Cohn playbook, or really the McCarthy playbook? I'd like to learn more about that.""<br />
Carpenter and others also equate Trump's policies that got him elected as another example of the consistent tension between individual rights and national security that pops up frequently in American history. While McCarthy took the deep-rooted fear of Communism into public policy, the fear of terrorism and newcomers to the country were central to Trump's campaign and now presidency.<br />
""This tension between the perception that there is a trade-off between national security and political freedom is an ongoing scene throughout history,"" said Landon Starrs, a University of Iowa history professor.<br />
McCarthy's anti-Communist crusade is a ""textbook"" example of that tension, Carpenter said. Trump's commitment to building a wall on the Mexican border, plans to deport undocumented immigrants, executive orders against those traveling from predominantly Muslim countries, among other ideas, have created similar debates.<br />
Trump himself accused President Barack Obama of ""McCarthyism"" in a Saturday morning tweet alleging, with no evidence, that Obama had wire-tapped Trump Tower during the election.<br />
Trump also has been heavily criticized by members of his own political party during his campaign and his early presidency, similar to McCarthy, Carpenter said. It wasn't Democrats who led the campaign for McCarthy's censure in the Senate, but Republicans.<br />
""Mark Twain supposedly said that history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes,"" Podair added. ""And thinking about McCarthy and his relationship to what's going on today, it's starting to rhyme.""<br />
Those Trump ties aren't lost on Tye and his publisher.<br />
""Trump's critics say he's another McCarthy and that we have to learn the lessons of McCarthy,"" Tye said. ""Trump supporters are often McCarthy supporters and the lesson is that their guy advocates for controversial causes like McCarthy did.<br />
""It definitely has come back to the public lens and I'm trying to tell (the story) in light of this new interest and new historical record that hasn't been plumed yet.""<br />
McCarthy's reputation in Appleton<br />
When Podair first came to Lawrence University in 1998, he noticed a sense of ambivalence around McCarthy. While history books have largely vilified McCarthy, in Appleton where people knew him personally and professionally, ""in some sectors, he was considered to be a hometown boy made good,"" Podair said.<br />
When the Outagamie County Justice Center was constructed in the early 1990s, county supervisors debated whether to name the building after McCarthy. But one supervisor backtracked the seriousness of the proposal, calling it a ""joke,"" and saying he was embarrassed for bringing it up, according to a Post-Crescent story from the time. Others disputed that, saying that McCarthy should be praised ""for his continuous service to democracy and the fight against Communism.""<br />
A bust of McCarthy was dedicated in 1959 at the Outagamie County Justice Center. County officials discussed in the 1980s whether to remove the bust, but those efforts stalled. It wasn't until 2001 that the McCarthy bust would finally be moved out of the courthouse and donated to the History Museum at the Castle for use in a McCarthy exhibit.<br />
Plenty of assumptions were made about how the exhibit would frame McCarthy before it was complete, Carpenter said. Those within the Fox Cities thought the museum would paint McCarthy in a bad light, while those outside the Fox Cities assumed it would attempt to rehabilitate the image of a hometown boy.<br />
""Our position wasn't either of those,"" Carpenter said. ""We just said, 'Let's talk about what's important, what we can learn from this, and open up the conversation.'""<br />
After the exhibit opened, the reaction was largely positive, both from family and friends of McCarthy and detractors of McCarthy.<br />
The bust is now the most asked about item at the museum, Carpenter added, whether it is on display or not.<br />
""Even though people understand him nationally as an embarrassment, he still is the local boy,"" Podair said. ""If you knew him, you actually like him personally because he was perfect for this area  -  no pretense, no airs, no arrogance, friendly to everybody. But he also was a vicious political insider when it came to politics. But people here separate the personal from the political.""<br />
Previous biographers have also made a connection between the conservative John Birch Society, located in McCarthy's hometown of Grand Chute, and McCarthy. The John Birch Society, known for its anti-Communist advocacy, was founded in 1958, one year after McCarthy's death.<br />
""The John Birch Society, the final word in right-wing extremism and anti-Communist paranoia, made its home in Appleton  -  keeping vigil, as it were, beside the fallen hero's tomb..."" wrote Arthur Herman in his introduction for his biography of McCarthy. McCarthy is buried in Appleton at St. Mary's Catholic Church.<br />
But the John Birch Society says the connection is more perceived than real, outside of their shared home, anti-Communist sentiment and a single photo of the society's founder, Robert Welch, with McCarthy.<br />
""They do have a picture together so they knew each other, but there was no working relationship,"" said Constance McDaniels, the public relations manager for the John Birch Society.<br />
The move in 1989 from Massachusetts to Grand Chute was also not for ties to McCarthy, but because the chief executive officer during that time lived in Appleton, McDaniels said.<br />
With only one month of work in, Tye said he has no prediction of what his book will bring to McCarthy's story and legacy, ""but I'll try to tap into all these new records and tell a nuanced story that's fair to him, but also fair to what his own voice tells us that we haven't heard before.""<br />

By W. F. Winsey<br />
""There may be older men in the territory, but I am the oldest, living settler between Mosquito hill and Embarrass and Wolf Rivers.  Patrick McClone, Deer Creek Township, Outagamie County told the writer.<br />
Mr. McClone who was born in Castle Bar, Ireland in 1849, left his native land, when he had reached his majority, for America, because he had to shift for himself.   Men in the stone quarries near his home were working for 25 cents a day and boarding themselves, and relatives in the town of Maple Creek were writing him about the opportunities in this country for young men to get work at good wages and to become independent.<br />
As soon as McClone had decided to leave the Emerald Isle, he set sail at Londonderry and fifteen days later landed in New York.  From there he made his way to New London by boat.  The entire trip cost him $52 and he was worse than ""broke"" when he arrived at his destination, as debt stared him in the face.<br />
Started on Farm<br />
As a starter in the country of his adoption, McClone worked four months for a farmer at $18 a month, then for the Green Bay & Western railway and finally for a lumber company.<br />
As McClone belongs to that type of men who would rather be boss than to be bossed, and as he had decided to become a tiller of the soil, he bought the two ""eighties"" on which he has resided ever since the purchase, from Welcome Hyde.  ""For this land in the condition that God and nature left it,"" says McClone, "" I paid $4 an acre.<br />
""To reach the farm,"" said McClone, "" I went from New London to Bear Creek by train and there hired a man in summer with a sled to move me and my outfit to Coffee bridge, at which point because there were no approaches to the bridge, I sent the team back and encamped for the night.""<br />
"" Deer visited the camp in herds that night and were as tame as sheep and as curious as turkeys over the strange invasion of their territory.<br />
Used Sled in Marsh<br />
 I used the sled to get to the bridge because it would move over the intervening marshes and through ponds more easily than a wagon.<br />
""In the morning, I found a boat and in this I loaded by outfit, crossed the Wolf River, and landed on the farm now owned by John Luebke.<br />
""After reaching my land I found that four families had preceded me and settled near at hand.  These were J.V. Turney, Alonzo Buck, Porter Bohen and Alfred Coffey.  Not one of these men now is living.<br />
""For four weeks while I was clearing a patch and preparing to build a log cabin, I put up with these neighbors.  They helped me to roll the logs for the cabin into place and to put on the roof.<br />
Sold Timber<br />
""As soon as I had a house to live in, I began chopping down trees, cutting them into saw logs, hauling them to the river and burning the brush and surplus logs.  For the choicest basswood, I received $3 a thousand and $5 for the best white oak.  But I practically logged and burned all the timber on my farm.   My first and second teams were oxen.  After I was through with these teams, I used horses.<br />
""My first hay crop I carried to the stack on my back in bundles bound with ropes.  After I got my first yoke of cattle I hauled my hay and grain to the stacks on a large treetop.  I also used a treetop as my first drag to cover wheat and oats at sowing time.<br />
Bought Jumper<br />
""I afterwards hired a man to make me a ""jumper"" and paid him $1.50 when he had completed the job.  I was the happiest man on earth when I got this modern piece of machinery.  Then I could dispense with the treetop and move loads about the farm in the up to date style.<br />
""For a number of years I threshed the grain on the farm with a flail.  After awhile a threshing machine, horse driven, the size of a cook stove moved about from farm to farm doing the threshing.  Although this machine did not separate the grain from the straw and chaff, it was a great improvement over the flail and I made use of it.<br />
""I cleared seventy acres myself and when the boys were large enough they helped me clear the rest of the farm.""<br />
""In 1877, I married Miss McMyler, who came direct from Ireland, My wife helped me all she could with outside work, but her household duties and caring for a growing family took most of her time and were really more than she could do.  I lost my wife a number of years ago.<br />
""We have nine children but two of the number died in infancy.  The living are Michael D., Little Chute, Mrs. William Conlon, Deer Creek; Mrs. Hannah McGinnis, Appleton; William, Milwaukee; P.J., Appleton.<br />
Although ""Pat"" McClone has undergone the struggles, and hardships of clearing a large farm of heavy timber with a meager supply of money and tools and outlived all contemporary settlers in a large area about his home, he is still hale and hearty.<br />

Altho many such sad messag es are daily sent out from Washington to grief stricken par-ents all over the country, yet, when an announcement of this nature com es home to us, and not till then do we fully realize the sadnessof war.

He grew to manhood there and attend ed High School and when 20 years of age made a trip through theWest and North. He spent some months with his uncle, Peter O'Toole, n ow of Glascow, Montana, and from there he traveled up intoCanada where he found employment with a lumbering concern.

"I98012","Merryfield","Todd Daniel"," ","18 Apr 1964","","27 May 2012","Appleton Post Crescent","Green Bay diocese liable for molestation cover-up<br />
APPLETON - When an Outagamie County jury decided the Roman Catholic Diocese of Green Bay covered up a priest's history of child molestation, it sent a message to the rest of Wisconsin, an advocate for sexual abuse victims said. The outcome of Todd and Troy Merryfields' civil lawsuit against the diocese Monday empowers victims across the state to come forward, said Peter Isely, the Midwest director for Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests. For others who have reported sexual abuse by priests, this ""should increase the pressure to bring these cases to a just resolution."" ""That is always something that occurs when this culture of secrecy ... is pierced and opened by cases like this,"" Isely said. Rev. John Feeney molested the Merryfields in 1978, when they were 12 and 14 years old. In 2004, Feeney was convicted of sexual assault of the brothers. After the criminal trial, the brothers said they learned the priest had a history of similar assaults in the 1960s and 1970s that the diocese knew about and hid from parishioners at St. Nicholas Church in Freedom, which the Merryfields attended.<br />
So in 2008, they sued the diocese and now-deceased Bishop Aloysius Wycislo, who was in charge of ensuring priests were fit to serve, for fraudulent misrepresentation and sought unspecified damages. Things got specific Monday, when the Merryfields' attorneys asked the jury to compensate Todd $900,000 and Troy $1.8 million for pain, suffering and medical costs related to the molestation. The diocesan attorney, Patrick Brennan, said if the jury found the diocese guilty, the brothers should be given $100,000. The jury awarded Todd $225,000 and Troy $475,000, but that might be just part of the diocese's bill. On Wednesday morning, the jury will reconvene and hear more witnesses to determine if, and how much, the diocese must pay in punitive damages, which are punishment to deter the organization from committing fraud again. Deacon Timothy Reilly of the Green Bay diocese read a statement outside the courthouse after the verdict, in which he apologized to the Merryfields for the pain they suffered but disagreed with the jury's decision.<br />
The diocese argued the brothers suffered only minor trauma from the abuse and there was not enough evidence to back their claim that Bishop Wycislo knew Feeney had a history of molestation and committed fraud by representing him as safe. ""From the very beginning of the time when this lawsuit was filed against us, our focus has always been on discovering the truth and on achieving justice. If the documents and depositions indicated that there was a legitimate basis for the allegation of fraud against Bishop Wycislo and the diocese, we would not have undertaken the expense and time to so vigorously defend (them),"" Reilly said. The Green Bay diocese sent an email response to the verdict that said it has rigorous policies to ensure children are safe, including background checks on staff and volunteers, barring clergy who have a ""credible allegation"" of child abuse from ministry and mandatory reporting of those allegations to law enforcement. The Catholic church hasn't been held accountable for many past abuses in Wisconsin, Isely said. ""They have enjoyed an extraordinary immunity so this is a really historic, landmark day for the victims and the truth,"" he said. ""This is just one small drop of the deception and the lies and the devastation that has been caused to countless lives in that diocese."" Over the past week, Jeffrey Anderson and John Peterson, the Merryfields' attorneys, called several priests as witnesses. The priests testified there were allegations of inappropriate behavior by Feeney - that he swam naked with boys and showered with them after basketball games - long before he assaulted the Merryfields in 1978. Feeney was attending mental health counseling in 1974 after he touched girls inappropriately at a church retreat, Rev. Lawrence Canavera testified. Anderson and Peterson presented a letter forwarded from psychologist Thomas Kelley to the bishop stating under stress Feeney's ""usual controls over sexual impulses may fail and cause some indiscretions."" But the bishop, who died in 2005, said in a previous deposition that if there was merit to complaints of sexual abuse by Feeney, he would have immediately suspended the priest. After the jury deliberated for five hours, Judge Nancy Krueger announced it had reached a verdict. The Merryfields stared quietly at the front of the court, Troy and his attorney fidgeted nervously - then the jurors filed in and Krueger read the verdict. Four years after they filed the lawsuit, the Merryfields and their attorneys shook hands and hugged in celebration. Troy sat with his arm around Todd, comforting the older brother who had spent most of his life denying the molestation ever occurred.<br />

""We've not filed bankruptcy, and our intenti on is not to file. We just decided here to get this thing cut down and p ay everybody cash.""Due to be sold at auction Saturday are equipment and 1,250 Holstein heifer s.Micke said Gold Dust is trying to work with its creditors, ""but the lende rs don't want to cooperate. Some do and some don't."" The farm had a contra ct providing a somewhat higher price for its milk, but that no longer is t he case, he said.""We had a contract with our milk to the end of October, and now the contra ct has expired, and it's back to ordinary milk prices,"" he said.""With the price we had, we had a good price, but we lost that as of the e nd of October, and there's no way we can go on. We've got the lowest mi lk prices now that we've had in 30 years.""The farm, known for its giant statue of a Holstein cow in the front, h as 26 full-time and 10 part-time workers.""Certainly he's a large producer who did a lot of business with a lot of p eople in the area,"" said Doug Sutter, county agriculture agent for the Uni versity of Wisconsin Extension. ""The loss of his business is going to affe ct everybody.""Feed consultant Don Nighorn works with several area feed mills.He wouldn't speak directly about Micke's situation but said many area farm ers are in a precarious position, and the strain is passed along to feed m ills, equipment companies and fuel suppliers, among others.""Unless things turn around, there could be a few more Gold Dust Dairies o ut there that are going to be in trouble because they can't cash-flow,"" Ni ghorn said.""Accounts receivable now have never been higher - businesses that advan ce credit for supplies, feed, fuel are not getting paid at this poin t, or are getting only a portion of what is owed.""A federal program to protect farmers against falling milk prices benefi ts small farmers more than it does the large farms, Sutter said.It compensates farmers for 45 percent of the price difference when pric es fall below $16.94 per hundredweight (about 12 gallons). The price th is summer dropped below $10 per hundredweight.But the compensation covers only the first 2.4 million pounds of productio n. That provides protection for an operation of about 120 cows but compens ates no more than about 10 percent of large operations like Gold Dust, Sut ter said.""Things are pretty dismal,"" Sutter said. ""We've had good years and bad yea rs in the past, but three of the past four years have been below average m ilk prices. If you have a good and bad year, they average out, but if y ou have a string of bad ones, it certainly wears on you.""<br />

Like thousands of other young men and women who came of age during World War II, Maynard Morse left his home and family to serve his country.<br />
Like Morse, they grew up not with the teen-age pleasures we take for granted today, but surrounded by strangers and sickness, danger and death.<br />
Some of their stories are repeated down through the generations, but for other veterans, it takes some years to be able to look back to that time with perspective and understanding.<br />
With Memorial Day approaching, Morse wrote a memoir of his years in the Navy, and shared it with The Current.<br />
""I always wanted to do that all these years, but you know how it is, you keep putting things off,"" Morse said.<br />
""I'm 75 now, and I finally had enough time. I thought it would be nice for my children to have.""<br />
Morse has three children, David Morse and Eva Fink, of Appleton, and Paul Morse, the police chief in Kaukauna.<br />
""He'd talk about it occasionally, when we'd see a picture in a photo album of him in the Navy with his buddies,"" said Paul Morse. ""There wasn't a lot of detail; he'd just say he liked being on the ships, and that sometimes it got lonely.""<br />
The elder Morse's wife, Doris (Mero) Morse, originally from Manistique, Mich., died in 1982.<br />
Maynard's companion for the past 10 years has been Gloria Magolski, 68, of Appleton.<br />
""We love each other very much,"" Maynard said. ""She's had a pacemaker and heart bypass surgery, so I visit her in the hospital for now.""<br />
Many veterans who traveled overseas with various branches of the U.S. Armed Forces say they experienced more of life during their years in the service than they have at any time since.<br />
Unless those stories are written down, they will someday be lost. We encourage veterans to record their experiences and feelings, and would welcome these stories for possible use on future patriotic holidays.<br />

By Jenny ShearerUNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITERJanuary 18, 2006EL CAJON -<br />
For the Pennings family, law enforcement is the family business. Three of its six members work at the California Highway Patrol's El Cajon station. Brothers Brian and Brad are officers; their mother, Carol, processes accident reports and handles other administrative tasks. Brothers Brian Pennings (left) and Brad Pennings are California Highway Patrol officers at the El Cajon station. Mother Carol Pennings processes accident reports. Their father, Bruce, is a retired sheriff's deputy who has returned to work part time through the Sheriff's Department's 120-day rehire program. He assists at various courthouses in the county. An uncle recently retired as a police officer in Texas, and another uncle holds a civilian posit ion with the CHP in Clairemont as a commercial vehicle inspector. Carol Pennings said it's cool to work with her kids. It was one of the main reasons she returned to the El Cajon station. She had previously worked there in her 15½ years with the CHP.""It's really nice because they breeze through the office and say, 'Hi, Mom,' and I get to see them every day,"" she said. Working together also allows her the chance to see her children in a different light, and to hear that people appreciate the work they do. Brian Pennings, 33, always wanted to work for the CHP. A car aficionado, he grew up helping his father restore vintage Mustangs. He is trained to tear cars apart for post-collision inspections, to determine mechanical factors in accidents. As a boy, he liked to watch the 1970s show, ""CHiPs,"" and wanted to be like Ponch and Jon, his mother said. When she started working for the CHP, he told her he wanted her to ""sign him up.""She told him he would have to wait and do it on his own, which he did, graduating from the academy at 23. He has spent his career at the El Cajon station and is the public-affairs officer. Younger brother Brad, 26, thought about becoming a chiropractor until he did a ride-along with his brother when he was 19.He was impressed with the CHP and decided to join as well. He works as a patrol officer. Carol Pennings said she doesn't fear for her sons' safety; she prays that God will protect them and then lets those thoughts go.""Arguably one of the most dangerous things you can do as a law enforcement officer is make a traffic stop, because you don't know who this person is, what they may have just done,"" Brian Pennings said. He said working where they grew up can be uncomfortable at times, especially when people ""who I barely know"" get pulled over and drop the Pennings name to try to get out of a ticket.

Between them are two sisters, Shawna and Heather. When Brian Pennings found out his parents were expecting a fourth child, he told t hem it had better be a boy or he was going to leave home.<br />
""I got my wish,"" he said. The brothers shared a room growing up, and Brian Pennings helped coach Brad's sports teams. When it was time to have his badge pinned on during his academy graduation ceremony, Brad asked his brother and father to help."

Obama met individually with Mueller's family and the relatives of 14 other deceased U.S. soldiers at Dover Air Force Base, Del., in a visit to the base where fallen Americans are returned to the United States.<br />

Mueller will be buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, D.C., alongside a fellow soldier killed earlier in the war, Lahti said.<br />
A memorial service is being planned for early next week at Christ the King Lutheran Church in Combined Locks.<br />

Sgt. Nickolas A. Mueller, 26, of Little Chute was a member of the U.S. Army's 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment and a crew chief on a Chinook helicopter.<br />
Mueller died doing what he loved and left behind a family and girlfriend who are intensely proud of his sacrifice, parents Larry and Sharon Mueller told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.<br />
""This was something that he wanted to do, that he needed to do,"" Larry Mueller said. ""We were behind him 100 percent.""<br />
The Pentagon said the helicopter crashed Monday while returning from the scene of a firefight with suspected Taliban drug traffickers. In a separate crash Monday, four more troops were killed when two helicopters collided over southern Afghanistan.<br />
U.S. military officials insisted neither crash was believed a result of hostile fire, although the Taliban claimed they shot down a U.S. helicopter in the western province of Badghis. The U.S. did not say where in western Afghanistan its helicopter went down, and no other aircraft were reported missing.<br />
The Defense Department did not immediately confirm that Mueller was on board. But Mueller's parents said they were awoken just after midnight Tuesday by three fellow members of the 160th regiment.<br />
""We had a feeling all day because Nick did not call,"" Sharon Mueller said. ""I went to bed thinking, 'No news is good news, Nick's OK.' Then there was the knock on door.""<br />
She paused and then exhaled.<br />
""I'll never forget them three guys standing on my porch,"" she said softly. ""I thought Nick would never die.""<br />
Nick Mueller always wanted to be a fighter pilot, the mother said. Even when he was little he decorated his room with a military theme, including pictures of fighter jets.<br />
If there were any doubts about his career plans, they were erased by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.<br />
""He wanted in and we supported him,"" Sharon Mueller said. ""A mother always wants to feel her children are safe, but I supported him because Nick wanted that. I thought to myself I would never let him know how afraid I was.""<br />
Mueller was outgoing and gregarious, someone who enjoyed debating with his teachers, his mother said. If he had something to say, he would say it, she said.<br />
He graduated in 2002 from Little Chute High School, where he played football and ran track. But his mother said it was in wrestling that he excelled - dominating an opponent who outweighed him by 55 pounds during one matchup.<br />
Sharon Mueller said her son would be buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Va. She said it was too early to say when memorial services would be held.<br />
""Nick always thought of other people. With him everybody came first,"" she said. ""He was a very, very giving person. I think that's what people will remember."""

Mueller's body was returned to the U.S. following a helicopter crash that killed him and nine others Monday in Afghanistan.<br />
Mueller, of Little Chute, was returned to Dover Air Force base in Delaware. He will be buried in Arlington National Cemetery after a memorial service in Savannah, Ga., for the fallen soldiers of 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, which is based at Hunter Army Air Field near the coastal Georgia city.<br />
In addition to the soldiers killed in the crash that claimed Mueller's life, four others who were killed in a separate helicopter crash Monday also were returned to U.S. soil, and Obama met privately with relatives of each of those killed.<br />
""The president talked to each of the families, saying he was very sorry for their loss, but that this loss was also a loss for the country and the country mourned their son's passing,"" said Elizabeth Lahti of Appleton, whose daughter is married to Mueller's brother.<br />
Lahti's daughter, Stefanie, and her husband, John, accompanied Mueller's parents, Sharon and Larry Mueller, to Dover Air Force Base.<br />
Lahti said Nickolas Mueller's unit, also known as the Night Stalkers, provides helicopter aviation support, mostly at night, for special operations forces. Five of the seven soldiers killed in Monday's crash were Night Stalkers, Lahti said.<br />
The three others who died were Drug Enforcement Agency agents.<br />
The crashes Monday that killed 18 Americans made it the deadliest day for the U.S. in Afghanistan in four years.<br />
Obama's trip to welcome home the fallen was not announced. He landed in a U.S. Marine Corps helicopter and immediately strode to the chapel where the grieving families awaited the arrival of their loved ones.<br />
After his visit to Dover, Obama said losses like those the country suffered Monday are ""something I think about each and every day.""<br />
""It was a sobering reminder of the extraordinary sacrifices that our young men and women in uniform are engaging in every single day, not only our troops, but their families as well,"" Obama said.<br />
Obama is in the midst of a review to determine the course of U.S. strategy in Afghanistan. At least 815 members of the American military have died in Afghanistan or neighboring countries as a result of the invasion in late November 2001.<br />
The Defense Department has not publicly released the names of those killed in the helicopter crashes. Lahti said relatives were told the names are being withheld pending positive identification of the remains.<br />
The crash that killed Mueller was caused when the helicopter, flying in poor visibility caused by dust from its blades, hit a structure, according to a Web site operated by the Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force in Afghanistan."

Mueller, 26, a Little Chute native and member of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, was killed in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan Oct. 26.<br />
On the sunny, warm day that was more a glimmer of summer than late fall, Mueller was remembered as a funny, outgoing man who worked hard, loved being a soldier and was entirely selfless.<br />
The percentage of the crowd who knew Mueller, his parents or extended family appeared great.<br />
""Most of them we do know,"" said Mueller's mother, Sharon. ""But then some come up and say, 'You don't know me, but we just have to be here.'""<br />
""The strength you get from the people coming through is unimaginable,"" said Larry Mueller, Nick's father.<br />
Women arrived with plates of homemade bar cookies, covering four large tables in the school's cafeteria. Even the high school wrestling club, one of Mueller's passions, sent a floral arrangement.<br />
The line of those who wanted to express condolences stretched the length of the field house. In the last hour, the line doubled, extending past the doorway emblazoned with the motto ""Accept your limitations, then go beyond"" to the school's front doors.<br />
It appeared the entire village of 11,000 people was in mourning. Even if they didn't know him personally, he was treated like a brother, friend or son.<br />
""If one is lost, they're lost to everybody,"" said Pat Nagan, of Appleton, a member of the Patriot Guard Riders, who didn't know Nick Mueller personally. ""It's a local boy done good. He was the kind of son any parent would want.""<br />
The riders group was formed by veterans to show support to families who lose loved ones. ""We have lost over 100 now in Iraq and Afghanistan from Wisconsin,"" said senior ride captain Michael Weaver, of Kaukauna.<br />
Mueller's father, Larry, also a Patriot Guard Rider, was grateful to see riders come out in full force and hold flags by the high school's entrance. ""Whenever I did this, I knew it meant something. But being on this end of it … they'll never know what they actually mean.""<br />
Mueller praised Friends at the visitation praised Mueller's selflessness.<br />
""He was the shirt-off-his-back kind of guy,"" said Michael Sherwood, of Combined Locks, remembering his friend since sixth grade. ""He was there for you when you were down. Everybody should know him. He's the friend you'd want to have.""<br />
Mueller's girlfriend Heather Huckett flew in from Savannah, Ga., to meet the Mueller family for the first time this past week.<br />
""He was probably the funniest guy I ever met,"" she said. ""He had a really big heart. He loved with his whole heart.""<br />
They'd met in Savannah when she visited her little brother who was in the same Night Stalkers military unit as Mueller.<br />
""The first time I met him, all he said to me was he liked my potato salad,"" Huckett remembered. She said she had an immediate crush on him and moved to Savannah. ""I asked him out,"" she recalled.<br />
Even though she knew he was doing what he wanted to do, the loss is devastating.<br />
""We had so many plans,"" she said. ""You don't expect this when you're young.""<br />
Governor visits<br />
Gov. Jim Doyle came to speak privately with the Mueller family before the visitation started at 10 a.m. Saturday.<br />
""He said how sorry he was and how close it hit,"" Sharon said.<br />
After that, the steady stream of people didn't let up until the funeral started at 4 p.m. against the backdrop of a two-story American flag, bagpiper and Little Chute High School choir. It began with a silent procession of veterans, police, soldiers from the 395th and 21 members of the Little Chute Fire Department. Staff Sgt. Caleb Baugh, of Savannah, Ga., choked back tears as he gave a eulogy commemorating his friend's sense of humor and hard work.<br />
Rev. Tim Krick, of Christ the King Lutheran Church in Combined Locks, pointed out that a Facebook page honoring Mueller had 1,500 members sign up in a matter of days.<br />
""This tells you everything you need to know about Nick. He cared for others and others cared for him.""<br />
At the end, with the waning light of the day, Mueller was honored with military rites conducted by the Jacob Coppus American Legion Post 258 of Little Chute, which included a three-volley salute, taps and a folded flag presented to his mother.<br />
Mueller's remains were not in Little Chute, but will be laid to rest Nov. 16 at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Va., according to his wishes. Online condolences may be sent through oconnellfuneralservices.com."

"I309311","Niehaus","Debra","Kunkel","","","8 Oct 2010","APC","From the moment they're old enough to clutch a bouquet or hum Wagner's bridal chorus, most girls dream about their wedding day.<br />
Most fathers? They usually aren't brought into the conversation until it's time to fork over the credit card.<br />
But, Tom Kunkel's subconscious works on a mysterious level, which explains why he had a Nostradamus-like premonition three years ago while working at the University of Maryland in College Park.<br />
""It was a very vivid dream taking place at the chapel at the university. I got dropped into the middle of a big, huge wedding. And, I started to realize it was a multiple wedding,"" said Kunkel, in his third year as president of St. Norbert College in De Pere.<br />
""Little did I know until I started marching down the aisle that it was my daughter Katie, my daughter Claire, my daughter Helen and my daughter Grace.""<br />
Well, three out of four ain't bad.<br />
Just as Thomas' dream eerily forecasted, sisters Katie, Claire and Helen Kunkel will walk down the aisle Saturday at Old St. Joseph Church at St. Norbert College for a rare triple-wedding spectacle that begins at 3 p.m.<br />
Youngest sibling Grace, 21, will be present as maid of honor for all three. Mom, Deb, will have the requisite tissues handy --times three. But, it's nothing compared to the deja vu Thomas is set to experience when the ceremony starts.<br />
""It'll basically be three circles for him,"" Helen said, laughing at the thought of her dad escorting all three daughters down the aisle in succession. ""He'll walk Katie down first, then he's set to go out a separate set of doors. Then, he'll just loop back around and grab the next one.""<br />
The wedding reception Saturday night also will be on campus.<br />
Siblings stick together<br />
What started as a joke between three sisters turned into a common-sense epiphany that seemed far more intriguing than improbable. After all, the Kunkel sisters had been known to share everything from clothes to jewelry to Barbie dolls growing up, so why not a wedding?<br />
""Oh, my gosh, we share everything,"" said Claire, a high school teacher in Maryland. ""Clothes. Friends. Katie and I had the same first confirmations. We were always celebrating our graduations or birthdays at the same time. We all went to the University of Maryland. Sharing everything is pretty normal for us.""<br />
Yet none of it could have been possible without all three getting engaged in a span of 16 days.<br />
Thomas had an indication something special was brewing while preparing for Katie's graduation from George Mason University School of Law in May 2009. Before leaving, he received a call from Nick Stewart, Katie's boyfriend, about needing to discuss something important -- not-so-subtle code for a life-altering decision of the on-bended-knee variety.<br />
Shortly after, Michael Lindsey, Helen's boyfriend, sent Thomas an e-mail indicating the same cryptic sentiment.<br />
""And, I turned to (Deb) and said, 'You better buckle your seat belt,'"" Thomas said.<br />
The two conversations went as expected -- old-fashioned requests for a father's blessing from two future son-in-laws.<br />
Then came a random phone call from Claire's boyfriend, Sam Kaiser, a few days later.<br />
""We really didn't know about that third one,"" Thomas said. ""But, it was Sam, and he spoke about being in love with Claire and wanting to spend his life with her and how he would like to have my blessing to propose.<br />
""I just started laughing. I mean, I love Sam, and of course, I was delighted. But, I really didn't expect that. It was this bang, bang, bang of engagements. Talk about overwhelming.""<br />
""It really was this kind of perfect storm,"" Helen added. ""My fiance and I had been going out four years at the time. Claire and her fiance were like two, two and a half years. Katie and her fiance were about a year and a half, but they'd known each other all throughout college.<br />
""Really, it was the right moment for everyone. It was the right time in all of our lives.""<br />
If the idea of a triple wedding was a surprisingly easy sell to the sisters, their fiances and their immediate families, it had a confounding effect on the majority of those in their social circle.<br />
""Nobody understood. They were like, 'What?', and I think brushed it off as being ridiculous. When we actually sent out invites and they saw that it was real, I still think they were like, 'Now ... how does this work?'"" Helen said.<br />
""It's one of those things where first glance, yeah, it looks like a normal wedding invitation. Then, you realize, wait, there's six names ...""<br />
""They probably thought it was for a cult wedding,"" Thomas joked.<br />
Details, details, details<br />
A ""one-family stimulus package for Northeastern Wisconsin,"" as Thomas lovingly calls it, the Kunkel wedding is economical in more ways than one.<br />
By uniting all three at a neutral site like St. Norbert, it provides a substantial savings for would-be travelers who likely wouldn't have been able to attend all three separately.<br />
""Our family loves it,"" Thomas said. ""They thought it was funny, but I also think they're very, very appreciative.""<br />
As for the guest list, it isn't as oversized as amateur wedding planners might think. About 300 are expected to be in attendance, well below the church's maximum capacity of around 450.<br />
Each sister will have her own set of bridesmaids and groomsmen, her own priest, her own vows and her own mini-processional (oldest to youngest) with assorted trumpet music. All three bought their ivory dresses -- in an unplanned moment -- from Elaine's Wedding Center in Ashwaubenon. The bridesmaids' dresses are the same navy blue, the flowers orange and yellow. There'll be three wedding cakes, three groom's cakes, three first dances, or as you'd expect, ""pretty much three of everything,"" Helen said.<br />
Individual flourishes are also intact. During the father-daughter dance, Thomas will waltz with each of his girls before her respective husband steps in. Because Michael is in the Navy, his groomsmen will be in uniform and conduct a traditional sword arch for his exit with Helen.<br />
""Our main thing is that we want each couple to feel like it's still their day, and it's not just a big circus,"" Helen said. ""It took me a few days to not be overwhelmed by that idea, too. At first it was like, 'Oh, my God, there are so many people to think about. I don't know if I can do this.' But, once I calmed down and realized it was possible, I got really excited.""<br />
Almost to the finish line<br />
As if the coming week wasn't poised to be crazy enough, in a 24-hour reprieve from the mad dash to the finish line, all three couples were scheduled to fly to New York City on Wednesday for a morning appearance on CBS' ""The Early Show"" today.<br />
The family had previously fielded calls from cable's TLC and other documentary/reality producers as their story gained national attention, but Helen said they wanted to maintain a respectable level of privacy.<br />
""We don't see it as something that's interesting to other people. It's our wedding. So, (the attention is) weird to us, but at the same time, it can also be pretty exciting,"" she said.<br />
Instead, the New York trip is a cherry on top of not only what has managed to be a less stressful journey than expected, but also one that couldn't have shaped up any other way than with three best friends who happen to be sisters' saying ""I do"" on the same day.<br />
""The main thing to remember in all of this is that, yes, the spectacle will be amazing, and it's going to be a wonderful day. But, it's about three couples getting married,"" Thomas said. ""Three couples who are well-suited for each other, love each other and make each other very happy. I couldn't be more delighted that my daughters are all marrying wonderful men."""

Couple respond to needs by building funeral home in Little Chute<br />
By Maureen Wallenfang ullet  Post-Crescent staff writer ullet  December 15, 2008<br />
LITTLE CHUTE -          When Tim and Jenny O'Connell started O'Connell Funeral Services, they aimed to serve those who wanted funerals and visitations held in their own churches rather than a funeral home.<br />
In their small, independent service, they took care of the details of preparing the deceased and making arrangements, but didn't maintain a chapel or gathering place for mourners.<br />
Over the three years they've been in business, they've gotten a number of calls from people who didn't have an established church and needed a physical place to hold a memorial.<br />
Plus, they were outgrowing their location just outside downtown Little Chute.<br />
On top of that, the O'Connells were told they were losing their lease.<br />
Considering everything, the couple decided to open their own funeral home and found a former bank building in downtown Little Chute would work.<br />
They're leasing the former Home Savings/F&M building, 201 E. Main St., with the intention of buying it. They moved in last month and hope to complete their 100-seat chapel by late January.<br />
""We had looked into building out by the highway, but the price tag was close to half a million dollars,"" Tim said. ""We wanted something with less overhead. That's how we landed in this facility here.""<br />
""We've been working in here since July,"" said Jenny. One of the biggest challenges, she said, was removing the concrete-encased safe. The telltale drive-up lane will also be taken out later when an expansion is started.<br />
""We're glad they stayed in town when they lost their lease,"" said Jim Moes, community development director in the village. At a time when many other downtown are struggling with vacancies, ""It's nice to have the occupancy,"" he said.<br />
Incidentally, the couple's old landlord farther down on Main Street changed plans and later offered the couple a long-term lease well after they'd made their moving plans. They declined, as they'd already committed to the new building.<br />
After their new building ceased being a bank and was vacant for a number of years, it had been converted to office suites. The O'Connells had to take down a lot of walls and plan coverings for windows. The hard edges had to be softened with lighting and color.<br />
They figure the eventual cost, once the purchase and improvements are complete, to be around $289,000. Even so, Tim said they did not increase their overhead substantially and got a lot more space in the deal.<br />
""We still specialize in funerals at your church,"" he said. ""Meeting families at their homes is not changing. Our prices aren't changing. Keeping overhead low is the number one priority because this is what families need, especially today.""<br />
He said their average funeral is $5,800 and an average cremation is $1,895.<br />
Their first year they served 28 families. Last year, it was 70, still making it one of the smallest funeral providers in the Fox Cities.<br />
""The funeral profession is very risky to start. There's a lot of name recognition,"" Tim said of being a newcomer. ""We knew this was not going to happen overnight. This was going to be a lifetime thing.""<br />
One program they participate in gives a discount to churches.<br />
We are participants in the Scrip program in many area churches,"" said Jenny. ""What that means is that we give a percentage back to the parish that held the funeral.""<br />
Families purchase Scrip from the parish for the amount of the funeral services, casket and burial container, then give the O'Connells the voucher. When the O'Connells redeem the voucher at the church, they give the church a discount.<br />
The discount amount typically helps fund tuition in the parish school or religious education program.<br />
""In some cases, this amounts in upwards of $400 to the parish and school for each funeral we hold when Scrip is used for payment,"" she said.<br />
There are few other changes in the way they operate since the move. Caskets are not stocked in a room, but instead are ordered from a catalog and shipped from suppliers overnight. They still own the business with four other minority shareholders.<br />
To the O'Connells, one of the biggest changes might be the least significant to the casual observer: its name. It had been O'Connell Funeral Services and now is the O'Connell Funeral Home.<br />

Rev. Michael O'Rourke, pastor of Appleton's St. Mary Parish, dies at St. Elizabeth Hospital<br />
<br />
By Kathy Walsh Nufer<br />
for The Northwestern<br />
<br />
APPLETON —   Rev. Mike O'Rourke is being remembered as the deeply caring pastor of St. Mary Catholic Parish and an inspiring church teacher and leader who had a ""profound impact"" on many.<br />
<br />
O'Rourke, 66, known affectionately by many as ""Father Mike,"" died Monday at St. Elizabeth Hospital. He had been hospitalized since Feb. 15 with a brain injury after a parishioner found him lying unconscious in his driveway and called 911, according to the parish Web site.<br />
<br />
""It is with the heaviest of hearts that we tell you that Father Michael O'Rourke left this world today to be in the arms of 'his best friend,' our Lord Jesus,"" read the statement on the Web site Monday afternoon. ""Father Mike died late this morning surrounded by his family.""<br />
<br />
Parishioners and the public had been monitoring the priest's condition and writing tributes to him on O'Rourke's CaringBridge site, as well as praying for him at several services. More than 1,200 had signed on to a ""Pray for Father Mike"" Facebook page.<br />
<br />
Funeral plans will be announced on the parish Web site and the CaringBridge site.<br />
<br />
O'Rourke, had been pastor of St. Mary's since 1986.<br />
<br />
""The depth of him is amazing,"" said grieving parishioner Anne Higgins, who had worked closely with O'Rourke, most recently in mobilizing the parish community to take steps to keep Catholic Central Elementary School open.<br />
<br />
""He was so very special. I don't know of anyone else in my life who was such an example of Jesus. He lived it every day,"" Higgins said. ""He was very smart, and his gift was his ability to share profound messages in simple words so you could take them and apply them to your life. His messages in the past few weeks had been so powerful.""<br />
<br />
Higgins said losing O'Rourke is difficult and painful for those who loved him, but they must carry on with the lessons he taught them.<br />
<br />
""The challenge for us as a parish is to carry on his legacy and keep his spirit alive. He wanted us not to just put in our time, but to come to church and be a family, love one another and take that love into the world and make a difference no matter where we went.""<br />
<br />
Rev. Richard Allen, pastor of St. Gabriel Catholic Church in Neenah, said O'Rourke also touched people ""very deeply"" while working at that parish from 1974 to 1986.<br />
<br />
""In the 12 years he was here, there were many people who remember him for 'being there.' He was there at their baptism, their first communion, their reconciliation. They have very good, very strong memories of him, even after 25 years,"" Allen said.<br />
<br />
""I'm having a hard time with this, and I sat here this afternoon and said a rosary for him,"" said Pat Beckerson, Neenah. ""But he's where he always wanted to be.""<br />
<br />
Beckerson, who had followed O'Rourke's career and talked to him periodically ever since he officiated at her wedding in 1975, said O'Rourke was just who a great priest should be. ""He was very easy to talk to, very friendly and he cared about everybody. He really made a big impact on children. He was just a cool guy."""

Uncovered Kaukauna photos need captions<br />
Historical society seeks information through Web site<br />
KAUKAUNA  -  In his youth, Gene Ploetz heard plenty about his parents' day-to-day lives in this community.<br />
He filed many of those stories in his memory bank. Interest in the community's olden times followed him as he went into teaching history at Kaukauna High School where, over his tenure of 35 years, he asked scores of students to indulge him with their families' memories.<br />
Ploetz, 76, retired from the classroom in the 1990s, but more than two decades later, his work to document Kaukauna's historical trajectory from the early 1800s to the present is unending.<br />
Ploetz and the Kaukauna Area Historical Society, of which he is a founding member, have more than 2,000 old photos. Half have yet to be identified.<br />
The photos run the gamut: There's the photo of several couples and children sitting on porch steps. Another one, dating from 1923, shows a uniformed baseball team from Kaukauna. Members want to know who the players were.<br />
""I'd give a nickel for every person who's told me, 'You've got to help us nail this down, Gene. You can't go without doing it first,'"" he said.<br />
Craig Lahm inherited the photo collection when he became the Kaukauna Public Library's director in 1973. Over the years, the pile grew larger.<br />
""We probably should have done this 30 years ago, maybe 50 years ago,"" says Lahm, who in his retirement started to organize the photos in a way the public could see them online.<br />
Under his direction, the group set up a blog. Viewers with information can leave comments.<br />
Maggie Waggoner, the library's director, says it makes sense that Kaukauna would mount a large project to piece together a part of the state's history.<br />
""Kaukauna is one of the oldest communities,"" she said.<br />
Missionaries and French fur traders settled the area in the 1600s. It was on the main line of the Chicago and North Western Railway in the 1860s.<br />
As historical society members have learned, not all the photos are of Kaukauna. Some are of people from, and places in, Neenah, Little Chute and the Town of Kaukauna.<br />
Waggoner recently received an e-mail from a woman in New York, who had believed one of her relatives grew up in Ohio. She found his photo in the Kaukauna Web site.<br />
""That's the kind of stuff we get all the time,"" Waggoner said.<br />

Powers and Ha as our farmers residing in the town of Buchanan, the two farms adjoining e ach other.  This is the third suit in which these two men have involved i n, and the trouble rising over a road which the Town Board ordered buil t, which was constructed between the two farms.  The board ordered Powe rs to tear down a rail fence which was on his property in order that the r oad might be constructed.  Powers refused to do this according to testimo ny for the plaintiff in the case, Haas contends that he was authoriz ed by the town commissioner to help himself to the rails in the fence whi ch Powers refused to tear down.  Haas claims that he was driven away fr om the fence by Powers who was armed with a pitchfork and that Powers to ld him that they were going to get rid of some of the "" 60 acre farme rs in that vicinity and "" one of which was Haas.  Haas was sued at the ti me for stealing wood from Powers before a local justice and the case was d iscontinued on the grounds of no cause for action.

Lawrence Hoffman, 49, Hawthorne Woods, Ill., will be retried the week of Feb. 24. Hoffman was convicted in August 2000 of causing the death of Mark Rickert of Freedom in a boating accident that occurred in June 1999 on Lake Michigan near Two Rivers. Hoffman's 37-foot Sea Ray power boat struck a boat containing Rickert and three of his fishing companions, causing Rickert to drown.<br />
Hoffman appealed his conviction to the District II Court of Appeals. That court overturned Hoffman's conviction and ordered a new trial, based upon the fact that Manitowoc County Circuit Judge Daryl Deets failed to read a defense instruction to the jury.<br />

By Maureen Wallenfang Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
Q In a little more than five years, you've built this promotional products company up to nearly $2 million?<br />
A Last year we were at $1.7, so not quite.<br />
Q Still impressive. What is the key to building a company this size from scratch?<br />
A The first year was an interesting year. I wore all the hats and did everything, the payables, the receivables. I leased an office space in Appleton. It was a good experience for me.<br />
Q How do you describe your niche?<br />
A We do a lot with food manufacturers. I've got a little bit of history in food. I worked at a cheese factory. My dad was with Simon's cheese for 16 years. And then, while I was in college, I helped out on the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board on a few projects and learned the marketing side of it. At a prior employer, I worked with a number of other companies, and a couple of food manufacturers seemed to fit.<br />
Q What gave you the confidence to start your own business?<br />
A I always knew that I wanted to do something on my own. I had a lot of help from some mentors -              my parents and two older gentlemen who are retired and helped me. I did take an entrepreneurship program at the tech. I had an initial investment (of $20,000) and fortunately within four months was able to get that back and start creating profitability.<br />
Q How's business now?<br />
A Last year was a growth year. The revenue increase from '06 to '07 was 70 percent and the projected revenue increase for '08 is 20 to 22 percent. Over the last three years, we've averaged a 30 percent increase.<br />
Q What about future growth?<br />
A We've got a good working base of business, excellent people internally. Locally, we would like to expand into the corporate business a little bit. The goal is to diversify our client base.<br />
Q Can you give some examples of what you do?<br />
A We've done backlit signs, custom dartboards, wait staff apparel. One of the things we do for food manufacturers, for example, might be geared to a product launch. Bar mirrors, coasters, serving containers with the name of the product on it.<br />
Q It's business to business?<br />
A Exactly. It's a food manufacturer to a restaurant. Some of the clients we work with are McCain Foods, Sara Lee Foods, Johnsonville. They can give this merchandise to operators as incentives to help push the products. They're functional objects, things that they'll use internally, from wait staff trays to merchandising on the walls.<br />
Q How do you expand on that?<br />
A We're looking into ways at getting to the restaurant themselves. One thing that has been popular lately has been finding a unique way to serve appetizers in restaurants. We've been getting a lot of chain restaurants calling, from Red Robin to Hard Rock Cafe, asking for a server they could use in their operations.<br />
Q I see you've done a guitar-shaped onion ring tree for Hard Rock. What have you done for other restaurants?<br />
A For kids meals, we've done a mini baseball cap as a serving option. It can be used for anything from a scoop of ice cream to their little fries. They can keep the baseball cap.<br />
Q Restaurants are not having an easy time in this economy. How does that affect your business?<br />
A The restaurant industry is somewhat struggling. We haven't seen a direct effect yet. But again, we work with a lot of the manufacturers and a lot are going to step it up a little bit with the marketing. They get more competitive and want to offer more things to the restaurants to market themselves.<br />
Q Locally, where would we find your products?<br />
A The items themselves are geared toward the independent chains. It might be The Bar or Tanner's. The Capitol Centre has a number of our premiums on the wall. All in all, the idea has been working for the client. That's the most important thing -              that their sales are growing.<br />
Q Have you seen any direct effects of your products?<br />
A Brew City is a brand of McCain. One of the neat things is we got involved with it at the point when there was a new brand manager. The brand was doing $25 million. Within three to four years, when she passed the baton, they were doing just under $80 million. I like to thing we had a little something to do with it."

For many years, students there have been assign ed to create and publish a start-up, and Hyperlink, a 50-page glossy on ""o nline media,"" is the 51st in this long line.Romenesko, 53, who lives nearby in Evanston, was a natural for the issu e, but he has spurned most requests for interviews and photos in the pas t. Naturally, he is pictured near, or leaning over, his silver Mac lapto p, with a jukebox in the background, suggesting he is at a coffee bar.After a mini-bio of Romenesko (at least related to his online years), t he Q & A provides an up-close look at how he delivers his popular and infl uential links, as well as memos and letters, at his Poynter site, now kno wn simply as Romenesko after years as Media Gossip and then Media News.<br />
Here we learn:--He starts work at 5:30 A.M. Chicago time, consulting some of his 1 50 or more bookmarks. After awhile, he says, ""I try to get out of the apar tment and go to Starbucks,"" to use its wireless link. Occasionally he tak es the Metra downtown and works on Michigan avenue. ""It's a pretty flexib le schedule,"" he reports, ""and on any given day I'll move to five to sev en work spots. I don't want to overstay my welcome at any given place.""On Friday aftgernoons, he drives up to Wisconsin to visit friends, and hit s, he says, ""every Starbucks along the way.""--Asked to explain the success of his site, he attributes it mainly to upd ating throughout the day (unlike certain competitors) and the letter s. He prefers letters to blog-like comments ""because most comments th at I see on sites are lame.""--In an interesting inside look, Romenesko explains that when he first sta rted posting internal memos from newspaper editors and publishers, it caus ed a ""huge stink"" among members of the Poynter advisory board, many of wh om are still-active newspaper execs. Apparently they complained that th ey could no longer send a sensitive memo to staff without it showi ng up on Romenesko. But Poynter stood behind Romenesko and, he reveals, ""i t's come to the point now where editors themselves are sending me the memo s.""--Romenesko offers a ringing defense of hardworking mainstream journalist s, who are the true watchdogs, although he says bloggers ""complement wh at journalists do."" At his own site, he realizes the linked stories can of ten seem overly negative so he tries hard to step back and ""celebrate go od work.""--As for his critics, he notes that some conservative Web sites thi nk he is a liberal and liberal sites don't think he is liberal enough. "" If truth be known,"" he advises, ""I hate politics.""<br />

Loss of beloved teacher Ann DeBruin a blow to Appleton West community<br />
<br />
By Kathy Walsh Nufer<br />
Post-Crescent staff writer<br />
<br />
APPLETON —   ""My Dearest Wombats,"" began the cheerful note, dated Jan. 15, from communication arts teacher Ann DeBruin to her students at Appleton West High School and Renaissance School for the Arts.<br />
<br />
""As you've probably noticed, I have been absent most of this week,"" she wrote, explaining how a substitute teacher would take her place through the end of January, at least.<br />
<br />
""Right now my medical issues are making me exceedingly weak. But I plan to get better ASAP, because I love my job and I miss you. I will still be grading many of your papers/tests etc. and will stay in touch so you don't forget me … or think you've been set free from my watchful eye (think 'Eye of Sauron'). I hope to see you soon, Mrs. DeBruin.""<br />
<br />
Ann DeBruin instructed her husband to deliver the note Friday so it could be photocopied and distributed to all of her students.<br />
<br />
Friday night, however, DeBruin suffered a fatal heart attack, and Monday grieving staff, students and parents struggled with the sudden passing of a beloved teacher and West icon.<br />
<br />
""It's just so incredible she wrote it the day she died,"" said Lori Dolezal, who found that note so typical of DeBruin's ""heart"" for teaching and her students. ""She was one of the best teachers my children ever had. It doesn't mean they were comfortable. It was very hard but they came out of it for the better.""<br />
<br />
Dolezal said her son Ben had DeBruin for freshman honors communication arts this year. ""My son loved her. He's into the arts and I think she ignited it in him further. She was very fun-loving and kind.""<br />
<br />
West Principal Greg Hartjes said DeBruin, 53, who suffered from rheumatoid arthritis and other health problems, had told him late last week ""her heart and mind were willing but her body just isn't at this time.""<br />
<br />
He noted that she had been using a wheelchair for the past year and her husband would take her to school and pick her up. If she couldn't make it to school he would drop off her lesson plans for the substitute and pick up papers to correct. ""She just refused to give up teaching.""<br />
<br />
Hartjes said DeBruin had an ""ability to inspire kids with the passion she had for teaching. She challenged them and they would meet the challenge. ... She will be difficult to replace.""<br />
<br />
A memorial service for DeBruin is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in the West auditorium. Visitation will be held from 3:30 p.m. until the time of the service.<br />
<br />
""Teaching was her life and students recognized that,"" said Brian Bartel, a science teacher who called DeBruin one of his mentors. ""There were times I felt just as uplifted and supported by her as students felt. She was very comforting to me through rough patches.""<br />
<br />
Bartel said DeBruin, who drove a red Ford Mustang, was an avid Bruce Springsteen fan and Springsteen's music was played in the halls Monday between classes.<br />
<br />
Springsteen posters were plastered throughout the school, students and staff sharing memories of her in classes and students arranged to make T-shirts in DeBruin's name.<br />
<br />
Hannah Offerman, 18, a West senior, said DeBruin's death was a ""pretty big shock to everyone. We knew she had health issues and she was going to take some time off, but not this. No matter how sick she was, she was always here at school. You knew if you walked into her room she would be smiling.""<br />
<br />
Offerman created a Facebook page joined by more than 1,000 former and current students who wished to show their support.<br />
<br />
""It's amazing the number of students and alumni she had an impact on,"" Offerman said.<br />
<br />
She said she was losing her interest in literature until she took DeBruin's Advanced Placement course in English literature as a junior. ""Mrs. DeBruin is the reason that I once again love and have a passion for writing and literature.""<br />
<br />
Offerman said DeBruin made students want to be in class and ""want to learn. She was an amazing teacher but also an amazing person. She was really easy to talk to. You knew she really cared. If you had a personal issue outside class, she wanted to know. She wanted to help.""<br />
<br />
Bartel said the student comments on Facebook are a ""living testament to how Ann has inspired, believed in and helped countless students throughout the years.""<br />
<br />
""She was one of those teachers the kids were scared to death of the first week of class. By the end of the year they loved her,"" said Tom Morrissey, who taught with DeBruin in Renaissance.<br />
<br />
""Ann was a highly respected teacher at West and a close personal friend,"" said Val Cox, who teaches social studies at West. ""She was a remarkable woman who made the lives of those lucky enough to know her better. There is a great deal of sadness at West today because we all realize how very much we've lost.""<br />

# Chilton: Larry Hedrich upended incumbent Debra Hintz.<br />
# Freedom: Kevin Schuh easily defeated incumbent Eugene Krull.<br />
# Little Chute: Incumbent Randy Sanders was ousted, as incumbent Leon Biesterveld and challenger Lynn Hietpas won the two seats.<br />
# Neenah: Voters ousted Scott Butler, who had been on the school board for 27 years and was by far the board's senior member. Butler finished last in a four-way race for three seats, losing to incumbents John Lehman and Larry Lewis and challenger Betsy Ellenberger.<br />

A few days ago in the town of Buchanan a person passed away from this life, and since then I have been thinking of this man, whom I have known intimately for more than 30 years; and it appears to me that he is entitled to something more than the mere Obituary Notice the papers record, especially to the men of lowly life.  This man was in many ways a remarkable man: to be sure he was not very extensively known outside of the locality in which he died; he was not in evidence at political meetings or public gatherings of any kind; he was simple and unostentations in his life, but he was diligent in his chosen occupation and he was always in evidence at his church on Sundays and holidays.  The face reveals the character of the man and this man's face revealed in naturally fine intellect with which with proper culture and favorable opportunities might have won him distinction.  He was born in the year 1820, in Castle Connel, in County Limerick, Ireland, within the short distance of the city of the violated treaty.  Castle Connel has been a distinguished place for more than 1000 years, it still contains the ruins of those strange structures erected there before the Middle ages.  During this man's residence there the peasantry believed that it was a favorite haunt of the fairies, and perhaps it would be well, if their successors in our days would believe so still.  A little bit of imagination does not do anybody any harm.  This man arrived in America at the age of 30 years, and he first located near the city of Springfield Mass., where he married, and where he continued to resided until the year 1856 when came to the town of Buchanan where he has lived since.  While in Massachusetts he was the employ of a retired merchant, who had been so attached to him that he offered to double its compensation if he would remain permanently with him.  The men among whom this man was born, among whom he lived until he was 30 years of age were in many ways  remarkable men.  O'Connell use to call them (and he knew) ""the finest peasantry under the sun.""  It was their fathers, according to the Duke of Wellington, that saved the British Empire from destruction, and historians of England concede it.  These men were distinguished for the absolute purity of their morals.  They knew little of sin, because they had but little conception of it.  They bore some resemblance at least, to the holy man that hourly worship at the altars of God.  They were loyal to their friends; they had a tender hearts; they were frugal and laborious in their lives, and they kept the faith in which they were born.  The man of whom I am speaking inherently inherited the qualities of these men and they continued with him through his life.  Nor are they likely to pass away with his life, because he has left behind him those of his own blood who have inherited from his virtues; and they are certain to be perpetuated through them for many years to come.  This man was not rich.  He was simply in comfortable circumstances for his vocation in life.  But if the Palace has its pleasures, and the cottage is not without its felicities: and God, after all is not inequitable and the distribution of his gifts.<br />
 <i>""Princes and lords may flourish and may fade, a breath may take them as a breath hat has made, but a bold peasantry, their country's pride, when once destroyed can never be supplied.""<br />
</i>He was an Irishman that wrote these lines.  He is known to the world of our days as Oliver Goldsmith.  But in his days his friends, for short, used call him ""Poor Goldy.""  And it would be well especially for Irishman, and for that matter, for all men, to occasionally looked in the books that Goldsmith wrote.  All that is mortal of the man that I am talking about peacefully lies in the churchyard in the town of Buchanan adjacent to the church in which he worshiped in life, and there they will remain forever.  In the years, of course, he will be forgotten; but the place he lies will not be forgotten by God, because the spot that entombs the ashes of a good man remains consecrated ground forever.  But who is this good man of whom I have been speaking? His name is Daniel Ryan.  - WILLIAM KENNEDY."

Ryan, who was surprised by  the gift of a new, $20,000 Mercedes Be nz 300D because 32 years ago, while he was a World War II captain and ta nk commander, he saved the lives of many German children hidden in a castle. As reported in the Tucson newspaper, Ryan came onto a castle in the woods near Wolfsburg.  German officers occupying the castle surrendered to Ryan without incident.  In the castle were art treasures by the likes of Rembrandt and Van Gogh, hidden there because the museums were they had hung were in danger of being bombed. The castle also was a refuge for 32 children of high-ranking German military officers.  Ryan remained at the castle about a month before returning to his command post 300 miles to the south.  While he was at the command post, Ryan was made privy to secret information that the Russians would take control of the Wolfsburg area That bothered him, because he had heard that the Russians had executed many children of German officers in Berlin.  So without orders, Ryan returned to the castle and after some finagling with British authorities, who controlled it, was able to evacuate the children.  The adults sneaked away through the woods and fields, Ryan recalled. At the time Ryan was given a hand-carved dagger that had once been owned by Frederick the Great.  The heirloom had been given to Ryan by one of the German families, in appreciation for his life-saving deed. Many of the children Ryan had saved tried to reach him, but the letters kept coming back from Appleton marked ""deceased"".  That's because the letters were going to the home of his father, also named Thomas Ryan, who died in 1944.  The elder Ryan was an Outagamie County Municipal Judge. A year ago, while attending a paratroopers' convention, Ryan met a general who asked about the children.  The general said the commander of NATO 's ground forces, General Johann Kielslmansegg, had inquired about the incident.  Three of Kielsmansegg's children were among the 32 children Ryan had saved.Ryan,  a retired Colonel, wrote the retired general and asked about his ""second family"".  Kielsmansegg wrote back saying his nephew would see Ryan soon in Arizona.  Ryan received a call from Count Dr. Gunzel von der Schulenburg-Wolfsburg, the nephew.  A couple of hours later, he and Kielslmansegg's daughter were at Ryan's home with the Mercedes, which they presented on behalf of the 32 children who were hiding in the castle.Ryan had a little something for them, too.  The dagger, that once carried by Frederick the Great.  It was the German family's last remaining heirloom.  The Russians had destroyed all of their other treasures when they occupied the castle."

Newcomers<br />
Saturday evening arrived, after a long trip on the sea over England, Math Schampers (1858-1922) and (second) wife (1869-1945) and 5 children, from Horst; Jan Kleuskens and wife and 4 children, as Piet Kleuskens and wife from Venraai (Venray); and Math Keizers, from Horst, and Peter Vullings, from Sevenum. The latter two are both unmarried. Jan Rooskens, an 84 year old man, who was in the company of Mr. Kleuskens, died at arrival in Philadelphia. He was buried there. On his trip from Venraai (Venray) to Rotterdam, the old man traveled for the first time on a train. We hope the best for them in their new motherland.<br />
-----------------------------------<br />
Math Schampers (1858-1922) died in West De Pere. He was married to Anna Gertrudis Baltessen in 1878. And later in 1893 to Johanna Anna Katharina Rutten. He traveled with 5 children from his first marriage and newly wed second wife to Amerika. His second wife later married to Johannes (John) Bies. John was born in st. Anthonis, Netherlands, and firstly married to Angelina van den Boogart in 1893 in Little Chute.<br />
Jan Kleuskens (1842-1909) was married to Hendrina Mommen (1841-1912). They both died in Chicago, but lived some time in Brown county. They had 5 children living in 1893 according my database. I don't know why the number of 4 is in the article.<br />
- Peter 1869-1950<br />
- Maria Elisabeth (Lizzie) 1871-1956<br />
- Gerardus Jacobus (George) 1873-1940<br />
- Maria Petronelal (Nell) 1875-<br />
- Hendrikus Hubertus (Henry) 1877-1951<br />
Jan Kleuskens had a brother Pieter Jan (Piet) Kleuskens. He was married in 1876 in Venray. But he and his wife died in Holland. They had no children. I think this is the Piet from the article, but am not sure as long as I don't have the passengerslist.<br />
I am not sure who Math Keizers is. I think that he was married to Petronella Aerts in 1867. He died in 1909 in DePere. But then he was not unmarried as stated in the article. His wife died in 1908 in Horst, Netherlands. This Math definately emigrated in 1909 to Amerika. To one of his children who were already there. Maybe he did go in 1893 for the first time. To explore it. So far I did not find the passengerslist, to see if an age is mentioned. Math had 12 children, of them some emigrated:<br />
- Helena 1867-1935. She was married to Peter Joanens Nies. They emigrated in 1899, but returned to Holland. Their oldest son worked for the Volksstem some time.<br />
- Leonard 1869-1944. He died in Ashland and married Petronelal Marie (Nellie) Baeten, daughter of John Baeten and Elisabeth Berken.<br />
- Pieter Jan (John) 1872- . He emigrated in 1903. But in 1916 he was married in the Netherlands. Don't know if he returned definately or just temporarely.<br />
- Anna Maria (Marie) born in 1879. She emigrated in 1909. Don't know anything more about her.<br />
If this Math Keizers is the same as the one from the article, he left his wife and 7 children in Horst, Netherlands, to explore the possibilities in Amerika. At some time he returned to his family in Horst. Probably not too long after his arrival.<br />
Peter Vullings must be born in Sevenum in 1867 and died in 1950 in Grand Rapids. But I have him listed on the SS Rhynland in 1893. He traveled with Theodor van Rens and his wife in second Cabin. Did not find the others on this ship yet. By the way, Peter led a very adventurious life."

The donation is meant to honor Donald Schneider's legacy of serving the community along with advancing Catholic education and advocating Catholic faith and values.<br />
Schneider, who died in 2012, was previously president, CEO and chairman of trucking and logistics company Schneider National. He graduated from St. Norbert in 1957 with a degree in business. As an alumnus, he served as a college trustee and adjunct instructor.<br />
The Schneider family's continued support has allowed St. Norbert to establish the Donald J. Schneider School of Business and Economics, a new Master of Business Administration program, as well as build a new athletic stadium.<br />
""Their gift will help St. Norbert College students for generations to come by providing a rigorous educational experience that engages them in community service and developmental experiences working with local organizations,"" Bruess added.<br />

Complaint charging Steve Gaunt, 37 years old, town of Oneida farmer, with murder in the first degree was prepared Tuesday by District Attorney John A. Lonsdorf after a coroner's jury recommended that Gaunt be held for the murder of William School, 57, a farm hand who had been working for Gaunt, on Sunday. After deliberations of less than half an hour the jury brought in a verdict in which it was found that Mr. School came to his death at the hands of his employer after his skull had been crushed in by some blunt instrument or weapon. It is believed that an axe was used. Members of the jury were Charles Fose, George Walsh, Peter Stark, J. J. Hauert, C. A. Hipp and Oscar Kunitz. Immediately upon being informed of the alleged murder Monday morning the district attorney ordered an in inquiry into the weird death. The jury was called at 10 o'clock by Sheriff Peter G. Schwartz and a trip made to the scene of the alleged atrocity; from there the group was taken to an undertaker's establishment in Little Chute to view the body ,of the slain man. CALL WITNESSES At noon the inquest was Adjourned to 2 o'clock when sessions were resumed in the circuit court room at the courthouse. Witnesses called consisted principally of Gaunt's two brothers, the sheriff and Deputy Jay Bushey, and a neighbor who declared that both men were seen alive early Sunday morning. The crime is supposed to have been committed during the morning hours. The mental condition of the alleged murderer is apparently so unsettled that It was thought useless to even call him at the inquest. Since his incarceration in the county Jail Gaunt is reported to have said nothing of consequence concerning the case. THINKS HE IS DIVINE According to two physicians who have interviewed Gaunt, the prisoner Is insane. He suffers delusions of grandeur, a not uncommon form of neurosis wherein he imagines himself omnipotent, it is reported. One of the delusions he is said to have explained to physicians is that at the time of the slaying he believed himself to be divine and specially ordained to stamp out School's life in the hallucination that his victim was the devil in human form. ""I had him down - he was the devil and I had to stamp him out while I could,"" Gaunt is said to have told physic- clans. ecution of the murder charge would be mornlng that no very strenuous pros- Every indication was Tuesday attempted.

""I have talked to the man twice and am thoroughly convinced that he is Insane."" Asked if in his estimation Gaunt could be feigning Insanity the district attorney said he didn't think so. ""The testimony of two doctors, although in a way unofficial, bears out every assumption that the man Is deficient in mind and actually suffering terrible delusions,"" he said.

""Gaunt is not shamming, he Is not the type of man who at his best would have the type of intelligence necessary to hoodwink justice,"" Mr. Lonsdorf declared. The punishment, if Gaunt Is found guilty of murder or adjudged insane, amounts to the same in essence. In the* latter event were he to at any time in life regain command of his faculties he would still be under indictment and subject to prosecution on the homicide charge, it was pointed out. Coroner Herbert E. Elsworth presided at the Inquest. Preliminary examination will' be held before Judge Theodore Berg in municipal court. A still,80 gallons of moonshine and a quantity of alleged wine found on Gaunt's premises were destroyed by Sheriff Schwartz. No suspicion had been directed against the place as a manufactory of alcoholic beverage and it was only through the murder that the double purpose of the farm home was brought to light.

"I199796","Schreier","Theodore F."," ","3 Oct 1915","14 Feb 1950","4 Dec 2010","LaCrosse Tribune","Cashton native at center of 'great mystery of the nuke age'<br />
A memorial for Ted Schreier was erected in St. Bernard's Cemetery in Middleton, Wis.<br />
MADISON - One of the great stories almost nobody knows involves a man named Ted Schreier and the world's first atomic weapons accident.<br />
It happened 60 years ago - February 1950 - and it's still percolating.<br />
The author of a recent book on the episode, ""Broken Arrow #1: The World's First Lost Atomic Bomb,"" said in an interview that while he feels confident about most of what happened that day, there's a piece of the puzzle - concerning Schreier, a military pilot and weaponeer who lived in Madison - that may never be solved.<br />
""It is one of the great mysteries of the nuke age,"" said Canadian author John M. Clearwater, an expert on nuclear weapons doctrine.<br />
Theodore F. Schreier was born in Cashton. He attended the University of Wisconsin in Madison and settled there after serving in the Army Air Force during World War II.<br />
Clearwater, in his book, writes that in 1946 Schreier was working for American Airlines: ""Post-war life seemed good as he and his wife Jean began civilian life in Madison.""<br />
But in 1947, according to Clearwater, Schreier was recalled to active duty. He was given training with the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project and taught to arm a Mk-4 atomic weapon. It was top-secret work. Schreier's family thought he was piloting transport planes.<br />
On the night of Feb. 13, 1950, Schreier was part of a 17-man crew that was scheduled to fly a B-36 aircraft - the world's first intercontinental bomber - from Fairbanks, Alaska, to Texas on what was billed a routine training exercise.<br />
It was not. Instead, the crew was to carry out a simulated nuclear attack on San Francisco. On board was an Mk-4 atomic bomb. Whether the bomb's plutonium core also was on board remains in some dispute - crew members later said it was not, and Clearwater concurs - but even without the core, the bomb contained uranium and thousands of pounds of high explosives.<br />
Things went wrong almost immediately. Shortly after takeoff, the plane encountered heavy rain, and it soon got worse, as Clearwater writes:<br />
""The plane began to build up ice on the wings, tail, engines and propellers, and then started to lose altitude.""<br />
Three of the plane's six engines caught fire. Subsequent interviews with the crew indicate they managed to jettison the bomb - rigged to explode in mid-air - over water and then parachute out themselves.<br />
Twelve crew members were found alive by fishing boats and the Canadian Navy. The other five, including Schreier, were presumed drowned - at least until three years later, when the story took a very strange turn.<br />
In the summer of 1953, a rescue team searching the mountains of British Columbia for a lost civilian plane discovered the wreck of the B-36.<br />
The confounding thing was the wreck was found 300 miles north - back toward Alaska - and at a higher altitude than when the crew abandoned it, headed south, crippled and seemingly about to crash.<br />
A theory surfaced that Schreier - who was the only pilot among the missing crew members, and the only one nobody saw parachute out - had stayed with the plane and turned it around to the north.<br />
It makes more sense if the bomb's plutonium core was on board, and Schreier was attempting to keep it out of unfriendly hands.<br />
Canadian filmmaker Michael Jorgensen advanced that theory in his 2004 documentary, ""Lost Nuke,"" going so far as to call Schreier a hero.<br />
Jorgensen said at the time he thought Schreier had crashed into the Canadian mountains with the plutonium, which he believes was taken out (along with Schreier's remains) when the American military swooped in shortly after the wreck's discovery.<br />
Clearwater, who cooperated with the documentary and visited the crash site with the filmmaker, did not agree with Jorgensen's conclusions.<br />
Clearwater's book - and his participation in a subsequent National Geographic documentary on the subject - reflect his belief overwhelming evidence indicates plutonium never was on the plane.<br />
Plutonium or not, it remains a significant event - the first lost bomb of the atomic age.<br />
As for Schreier, Clearwater writes that there's a ""slim possibility"" he stayed with the plane and flew it north into the Canadian mountains. Clearwater thinks it far more likely Schreier bailed out and drowned.<br />
When Clearwater was asked how he thought the plane got to where it ended up, ""I cannot explain it,"" he said.<br />
Shortly after the plane went down, Schreier's family put up a stone in his honor in St. Bernard's cemetery in Middleton, Wis.<br />

What he does: The owner of Pine Street Bar in Little Chute, Schuh decided in 2006 to establish a year-round safe rides program for alcohol-impaired drivers |living in the Heart of the Valley. The Fox Valley Road Crew, made possible through a federal grant, began in April 2007 but had to close last September after failing to gain popularity.<br />
<br />
What he says: The decision to close the road crew, which had its base in Little Chute, did not come easy for Schuh, 25.<br />
<br />
Only a year after turning 21, he had become the owner of a bar and was committed to his customers' safety.<br />
<br />
He spent more than a year working with program leaders in Madison, searching for drivers and fancy but affordable wheels, and seeking partnerships with 60 restaurants and bars to launch the program.<br />
<br />
He said he kept fares low and offered specials to woo new clients. He recorded more than 5,400 rides in that first year and had hoped to expand the service area and add private events.<br />
<br />
""It was a need that I felt needed to be fixed, and I still feel there's some need for other options in the Fox Valley,"" he said.<br />
<br />
Future plans: Schuh says that although he has no immediate plans to kick-start another safe rides program in his community, he is open to helping someone else who shares his vision for a program.<br />
""We'd have to have much, much more community support in order to try and do something like that again,"" he said."

Life coach helps clients meet personal, professional goals<br />
<br />
By Maureen Wallenfang • Post-Crescent staff writer • March 2, 2009<br />
Q You're a life coach. How do you tell people what you do?<br />
<br />
<br />
A Primarily, I work with people who want to make a change in their life, who are feeling unsatisfied either professionally or personally. Or maybe a little bit of both. It's like, ""What's the next step? What do I need to do?""<br />
<br />
Q Why hire a personal life coach?<br />
<br />
A Primarily, for the accountability. Support is key when you're making a change in your life. Also, you're learning so much about yourself. I'm an objective person. I don't know anything about that client per se. I ask questions that draw out what it is you that want out of life. What's empowering you, what's dis-empowering you.<br />
<br />
Q Are you a grown up version of the aptitude test we took in high school to discover our true direction in life?<br />
<br />
A The interesting thing is you already know what your direction in life is. It's in your subconscious. I teach people the skills on how to bring that out.<br />
<br />
Q In January, you spoke to the Mid-Day Business and Professional Women's Group. Was your topic ""Do something and stop complaining"" an anti-inertia speech?<br />
<br />
A Yeah. Complaints are one of the biggest things that keep us in our comfort zone. When we voice a complaint, it's usually about something where we want to see change. In talking about it, we feel like we're doing something about it, when really we're not. All we're doing typically is talking about it. And usually to the wrong person. We fall back on complaints and say ""It's not my fault,"" or ""I'm a victim here,"" or ""I'm entitled.""<br />
<br />
Q You spoke to an E-Seed group last week. What was your topic?<br />
<br />
A What it takes to run a successful business. Obviously, it takes entrepreneurial skills, and that's what E-Seed is all about. It also takes talent in your trade. But there's a hidden element that I feel a lot of successful people know. If you want to be more successful, you need to do these things that create success in your business.<br />
<br />
Q Such as?<br />
<br />
A Having a successful mindset. Understanding what is holding you back. What are your limitations? What are you afraid of? This is about uncovering what those things are.<br />
<br />
Q Are you considered a motivational speaker?<br />
<br />
A I could be seen as a motivational speaker. What sets me apart is that I'm also a coach. There are practical tools and skills that I give my clients that they start incorporating into their life. It allows them to follow through and do what a motivational speaker might be telling them to do. It's the how-to.<br />
<br />
Q In addition to speaking, you do group coaching and private coaching?<br />
<br />
A Individual coaching takes most of my time. Right now, I have eight active clients. Plus, I'm launching a new group coaching series in April. I'm speaking at the Appleton Public Library at the end of this month on how to create a successful mindset because I believe that's the starting point. It's free.<br />
<br />
Q What results have you seen?<br />
<br />
A I have an out-of-state client who owned a salon. She came to me for personal reasons. She wanted to find herself again through the process of remarriage and a blended family. She ended up selling her business and opening a brand new business. She was able to put the personal stuff where it needed to be in order for her to grow professionally. Her confidence level grew.<br />
<br />
Q There are a just few other life coaches in the area. Is it new here?<br />
<br />
A Coaching has been around since the '90s and it has been very popular on the East and West coasts. The Midwest is catching up.<br />
<br />
Q How is it different from therapy or counseling?<br />
<br />
A If you have issues or challenges that are putting you below status quo —   maybe mental health issues or divorce, things like that —   counseling is a great opportunity to heal. Coaching is for people who are living status quo and just want to make their lives better. They know where point B is, but they don't know how to get there.<br />
<br />
Q At a time in the economy when jobs and benefits are being cut, this couple hundred bucks a month for coaching could be seen as a luxury. Is it more difficult to do what you do in this economy?<br />
<br />
A No. I started out when the economy was not so great. It's a (time of) greater opportunity for people to take control of their lives. People are realizing that it's the not the employer's responsibility to make you happy. When things aren't going right, you want to make changes in your life. I see that as great opportunity for people.<br />

As vice president at Kimberly-Clark Corp., he was looking at a large surplus of Cellucotton, a substitute cotton used in sanitary bandages for wounded soldiers.<br />
Now he had no new customers.<br />
""The Army had canceled all the contracts, and the Red Cross was giving away all the sanitary wound dressings free to hospitals,"" Thomas Heinrich, author of ""Kotex, Kleenex, Huggies: Kimberly-Clark and the Consumer Revolution in American Business,"" told IBD. ""There was no market.""<br />
Until Sensenbrenner made one.<br />
In 1920, Kimberly-Clark introduced Kotex, the first disposable feminine hygiene product.<br />
Four years later, they rolled out Kleenex, the first disposable paper handkerchief.<br />
By finding a peacetime use for Cellucotton, Sensenbrenner helped Kimberly-Clark become a pioneer of personal hygiene products in the 20th century.<br />
It Took Some Nerve<br />
When Kotex hit the market, stores wouldn't carry the product, magazines wouldn't advertise it, and sales were poor. Yet Sensenbrenner persevered, overcoming the cultural taboos that made marketing the product so difficult. Within a decade, women considered Kotex a basic necessity of life.<br />
When Kleenex landed on the shelves in 1924, it was targeted as a makeup remover for adult women. Sales were sluggish. When it dawned on Sensenbrenner that people were wiping their noses with his paper tissues, he repositioned it as a disposable handkerchief. Kleenex quickly became an iconic brand and the company's most reliable profit maker.<br />
""His background isn't that of someone you'd expect to evolve into a brilliant CEO,"" Heinrich said. ""He finished eighth grade, and that was it. He was a bookkeeper. He looked like a bookkeeper - a good, solid Victorian bookkeeper. But beneath it, he was a bit of a gambler. ... The guy was just a really good strategic thinker. He could figure out where opportunities were.""<br />
Despite his feats, Sensenbrenner was known for his modesty.<br />
Although John A. Kimberly, one of the company's four founders, retained the title of president until his death in 1928, Sensenbrenner ran things from about 1914 and was officially elected president in 1928. He refused the title of president out of respect for Kimberly, whose health was failing.<br />
""Sensenbrenner was the guy in charge,"" Heinrich said.<br />
Born in Menasha, Wis., Sensenbrenner (1864-1952) found work as a grocery store clerk after dropping out of junior high school.<br />
He was only 16 when he found his niche as a bookkeeper, and 19 when he started keeping books for Kimberly-Clark, a paper company headquartered in Neenah, Wis. The firm would move to Irving, Texas, in 1985."

Joseph Ska- hen, 58, with a hammer after a quarrel early today. Sheriff Gerhard Jensen said the aged farmer had confessed to striking the blows. Joseph was found fatally injur- ed in his bed about 2 a. m. by a brother, Daniel, upon the latter's return home. Attracted to his brother's room, Daniel found him with his head crushed. His assailant apparently used a claw hammer, found on the floor near the bed. Daniel immediately summoned Dr. J. J. .Minahan, the county coro- ner, who called Sheriff Jensen and District Attorney Edwin Eick. The father, who appeared feeble and dazed, said he had struck the blows after his son had used obscene language to him, the sheriff said. Something Told Him ""Something seemed to tell me I should put my son out of the way,"" the sheriff quoted the man as saying. The son was taken to a hospital here, where he died at 8 a.m. A coroner's jury this morning reported that the son had met death as a result of being struck on the head by a blunt instrument. Dr. J. W. Goggins testified that he died as a result of a fractured skull and that there were 16 or17 marks of the hammer on the head. All of the chest bones had been fractured, he said. The district attorney then ordered Herman Skahen held on a charge of murder. He said, how- ever, that he would ask that the murder charge hearing be stayed pending a mental examination of the prisoner. The prisoner was reported to have quarreled with his son over the distribution, of some land. Frank .M. Dougal of Kaukauna was at the home during the time the attack was said to have taken place. Dougal was awakened by Daniel Skahen and said he heard no sounds of an argument or of a fight.<br />

What Would Red Have Thought, and Written?<br />
By TERENCE SMITH<br />
Today is the 100th anniversary of the birth of my father, Red Smith, the former sports columnist for The New York Times. He was born in Green Bay, Wis., in 1905 and died in 1982 at the age of 76. He spent 55 of those years as a newspaperman, mostly in sports, writing for papers in Milwaukee, St. Louis, Philadelphia and finally, in what he always considered to be the big time, New York. At the age of 70, writing for The Times, he won the Pulitzer Prize for commentary in 1976. To mark his centennial, my sister, Kit O'Meara, and I decided we would do something he would have enjoyed: go to a ballgame. The National League was his favorite, so the choice was obvious. At 1:05 this afternoon, Kit and I, together with our spouses and my daughter, Elizabeth Smith, plan to be in Robert F. Kennedy Stadium, watching the Washington Nationals wrap up their series with the Mets. ""Remember,"" Kit said, ""how bereft he was when the Giants and Dodgers quit New York, leaving only the Yankees for him to cover?"" (""Rooting for the Yankees,"" he used to say, ""makes about as much sense as rooting for United States Steel."") ""And remember,"" Kit went on, ""how tickled he was when the Mets came to town and made such good copy?"" In fact, the Amazin' Mets, with Casey Stengel as the resident poet and philosopher, gave him scores of wonderful columns. The National League was back in New York and life was good. Kit and I mused about what he would have thought about the sports world today. He was always a fan as well as a professional observer. I am certain he would be astonished by the money in sports today. The idea that television contracts for Major League Baseball and the National Football League would be worth billions, that individual franchises like the Yankees or the Washington Redskins could be valued at more than a billion dollars, that individual players could have multiyear contracts equivalent to the budget of a small city - all this would seem Orwellian to him. Yet I don't think he would dispute that the real stars are worth whatever the market will bear. In column after column, he took the side of the players in their disputes with the owners. In 1969, he wrote supportively of Curt Flood, when Flood chose to hold out against baseball's reserve clause after he was traded against his will from St. Louis, where he had played for a dozen years, to Philadelphia. ""Curtis Charles Flood is a man of character and self-respect,"" Red wrote. ""Being black, he is more sensitive than most white players about the institution of slavery as it exists in professional baseball."" He described baseball's initial response to Flood's request to be eligible to play for any team as ""Run along, sonny, you bother me."" Would he have extended underdog status to today's baseball stars, with their huge salaries and aggressive agents and free-agency options? To be consistent, I think he would have had to swallow hard and say yes, the stars bring in the fans and the money, so they are worth whatever they can negotiate. Kit, who was not so sure, said, ""Whatever he thought of the players, he would have had a hard time viewing today's sports owners as underprivileged or undercompensated."" And what would he have thought of the steroid scandals that have dominated the baseball headlines this year? Kit and I are convinced that he would have hated steroids as a threat to the integrity of the sport he loved. Another frightful development, in his likely view, would have been the emergence of sports-talk radio and the shouting that dominates sports broadcasting these days. But here is his dirty little secret: He would have listened and watched anyway, no doubt talking back to the television just as he did whenever Howard Cosell was pontificating. And shamelessly, he would have used it as material for his column. But there is much about sports today that he would have applauded. He would have rejoiced in some of the spectacular individual performers - a Tiger Woods, for example, or a Roger Clemens, or a Peyton Manning or the Williams sisters. Are they better than the stars of his day? We doubt he would have cared one way or the other. Two sports he relished (partly because they made such great copy) were thoroughbred racing and boxing. Doubtless he would be dismayed by the disintegration of the fight game and the fact that racing survives more on slot machines and simulcasts than on what happens on the track. He loved this time of the year because it brought football. His preference was always the college game over the pros - he had more fun watching Harvard battle Yale in The Game than enduring the hype surrounding the Stuporbowl, as he would say. And so he would probably have applauded the Bowl Championship Series, for all its flaws, because it puts the football spotlight back where he thought it belonged. Kit and I think he would have appreciated much of what appears in the sports pages today. The best columnists are as good as any in the so-called Golden Age, and he would have taken pleasure in the way they go about what he always described as ""the best job in the world."" But mainly he would have enjoyed the chance to come along today to R.F.K., to watch the Nationals and the Mets play, to feel the pulse of the pennant races quicken and the momentum build toward the World Series. That's the way he would have wanted to spend the day.<br />

SPENCER IS BROTHER OF LOCAL WOMAN Candidate for English Parliament is Well Known Here Principally because he told a story that startled England. Capt. Harold Sherwood Spencer, son of Judge A. M. Spencer, Appleton, brother of Mrs. Wallace H. Strowd, Madison, is running for election to the British Parliament in the Finsbury. district London, and stands an excellent chance of winning. Capt. Spencer, who is a native of Appleton, has been personal 'aide de camp to a German prince;, captain in the international gendarmerie in Albania; war correspondent;, political officer, in the Balkans for Sir Edward Grey, British prime minister confidential investigator and officer in the British-flying service. Captain Spencer was a principal witness in the sensational libel suit brought by Maud Allan, American dancer, against Noel Pemberton Billing, member of Parliament and proprietor of a London newspaper. Billing hinted at a ""Black Book"" in the possession of a German prince, containing information about 47,000 British men and women, which could be used to prevent their opposing Germany. While he was living in the king's palace at Durazzo, Captain Spencer declared, a member of German royalty showed him the ""Black Book,"" He said the book contained instruc- tions compiled by German agents as to how the persons named might be approached for information of value to England's enemies. Captain Spencer said he knew at that time that Germany was plan- ninq war on England and he declared he reported the existence of that book at once to an admiral in the British navy. He declared that German agents masquerading as loyal citizens forced him to dispose of notes he had taken. Captain Spencer said he had been told one time he would be shot in two weeks. He said that German secret agents and spies in England had caused the removal and disappearance of British secret agents who knew ""too much."" One occasion, the officer said he escaped armed custody only by donning the uniform of a hospital'attache in Salonki. The trial attracted widespread attention in Europe. After the jury had found Mr. Billing not guilty, he and Spencer were met in the street by thousands who gave them an ovation. Shortly afterwards Captain Spencer entered the race for parliament in a bye-election in Finsbury. In his campaign he was aid- ed by Mr. Billing.

Kimberly-Clark Paper Mill Collapse<br />
October 6, 1928<br />
Six Dead, Six More Trapped as Walls Fall<br />
Excavations Near Foundation Believed Responsible for Crash<br />
Gangs Work All Night<br />
(By United Press)<br />
Kimberly, Wis., Oct. 8 - Three men, buried for nearly 24 hours in the wreckage of the collapsed beater plant of the Kimberly-Clark paper mill here, were rescued alive Saturday.<br />
(By United Press.)<br />
Kimberly, Wis., Oct. 8<br />
Rescue workers continued their frantic efforts Saturday to reach six men still buried in the debris of Kimberly-Clark paper mill collapse here Friday. Three of the six are known to be alive despite injuries.<br />
Six others were killed or subsequently died in hospital and 15 injured when the walls of the building, collapsed pinning the men beneath a mass of twisted concrete, steel and lumber.<br />
Groans Speed Work<br />
All night long the voluntary army of workers had toiled with the hope that those still buried might be reached alive. Moans heard occasionally throughout the night spurred rescue work.<br />
The two story building of the paper mill collapsed apparently as a result of the weakening of one wall. It was believed the wall caved in because of burrowings under it. No definite reason has been assigned as yet. An investigation was under way to determine the cause.<br />
Without warning, the walls crashed inward and the roof sank down.<br />
Oiler Is Killed<br />
There were 32 men employed in the plant. The paper mill was being repaired and a crew of a dozen men doing this work was also in or near the building when the collapse came.<br />
John Fiers, killed in the crash, visited the part of the plant, which collapsed, only once a day. He made his daily visit to oil machinery just as the walls caved in.<br />
<br />
Torches Cut Girders<br />
Little progress was made through the night in digging into the heaped up mass. It was necessary to climb up ladders to reach the top of the heap and there was a great deal of trouble experienced in carrying away the debris. Acetylene torches were necessary to burn through the twisted iron girders.<br />
The crash came without warning, he said.<br />
""I don't know what happened."" he said. ""I suddenly found myself falling and then buried under the mass. Timbers had piled up around me and prevented any bricks striking me.""<br />
<br />
Paper Mill Town<br />
Kimberly has a population of about 1,200. The town was built up around the paper mill, one of the largest of its kind in the country. Nearly everyone in the town gathered at the scene last night, but they were not permitted to get near the building.<br />
Workers, cutting their way through the mass, were in peril constantly from fragments of the walls still standing.<br />
The injured were given emergency treatment at temporary stations set up near the building, then were rushed to hospitals in Appleton, a few miles from here.<br />

6 Dead, 18 Hurt, 3 Missing in Mill<br />
Three Men Buried Under Tons of Debris for 14 Hours Tell Story of Rescue<br />
A tale of miraculous escape after spending nearly 14 hours buried beneath tons and tons of brick, steel, wood and pulp is told by three Kimberly men taken from the ruins of the collapsed beater room of the Kimberly mill, which collapsed Friday morning carying [sic] six men to their deaths and injuring 19 more. The men taken from the pit at 12 o'clock Friday night were Chester Mauthe, 20, married six weeks ago; George Pocan, 18, single; and Albert Jansen, 21.<br />
The three men, with Arthur Brockman, 40, Kimberly, who died of injuries after being taken from the pit, were working together unloading pulp from trucks and storing it on the top floor. A truck had just been unloaded and Mauthe, Jansen and Pocan were sitting atop the pulp pile while Brockman had pulled the truck to the elevator to bring back another load.<br />
Without warning there was a crash and the three men sitting on top of the pile were precipitated into a roaring inferno of flying bricks, steel, machinery, wires, pipes, masonry, pulp and lumber.<br />
<br />
Thought of Earthquake<br />
<br />
""I didn't know what happened but thought of an earthquake,"" said Mauthe. He talked in a low even tone, despite the hours of suspense in a small dark hole beneath tons of debris with the threat of death constantly staring him in the care.<br />
<br />
""I looked above me and saw a huge black form coming down. I think it was a beater. There was a sudden flash, like lightning, as I passed a switch box which was caught in the collapse. I burned my arm against a hot pipe as I fell. The air was filled with steam, and dust and flying bricks and stones and I thought I was a goner, sure.<br />
<br />
""I landed on top of Pocan in a hole not more than four feet long and a foot and a half wide and the tons of pulp above us stopped about a foot above our heads. After the noise had died down Pocan told me Jansen was beneath us and couldn't breath. I had landed in a sitting position. My two legs were doubled up to my chin under the pile of pulp and more pulp was pressing on the back of my neck. I was doubled up and couldn't move. Pocan managed to squeeze to one side enough to allow Jansen to turn his nose from the floor, so he could breath.<br />
<br />
Afraid to Move<br />
<br />
""I cautioned the fellows not to move because I was afraid any movement would bring that pile of pulp on us and crush us. It was pitch black and we could hear men hollering to the right and left of us. We called out too but no one seemed to hear.<br />
<br />
""First we prayed, then we talked to keep up our courage and then we would cry for help. The pain in my legs was growing almost unbearable and at last I didn't care whether I died or not. But I kept telling the fellows to be brave and that we would be rescued.<br />
<br />
Attracts Rescuers<br />
<br />
""We could hear the men working above us and shout for help but they seemed not to hear because the sounds would fade away. We prayed some more and waited. The suspense was awful. It didn't seem possible that we would get out alive. Finally I heard another man walking above me and I hollered. He seemed to hear because immediately digging started above us. As the rescuers came closer, the pulp began pressing down from above and we were afraid that it might crush us before the digger could reach us. The pulp kept advancing inch by inch until when finally the picks broke through, it was but an inch or two above us. Believe me, we thanked God when we got out."" Mauthe finished. Mauthe suffered a broken leg but the other two men were uninjured.<br />
<br />
Pocan's story was similar to that of Mauthe, except he said he never doubted they would get out. He said they spent most of their time praying. Pocan said they thought it was about 2 o'clock in the afternoon when they were taken from the pit. Jansen was too busy consoling his mother and sister early Saturday morning to be able to talk. All three were crying and talking and laughing.<br />
<br />
First to greet Pocan when he was taken out were his brothers, Clarence and Joseph, who started work with him at 7 o'clock Friday morning and another brother, Arnold, who arrived from Milwaukee at 6 o'clock Friday evening. The three brothers worked unceasingly and were rewarded by finding their ""kid brother"" alive.<br />
<br />
One of the early arrivals at the accident was the Rev. F. X. Van Nistleroy, pastor of Holy Name church at Kimberly. He attempted to reach the rumors but was stopped by one of the deputized guards.<br />
<br />
""You can't help down there father,"" said the guard.<br />
<br />
Priest Wades in Water<br />
<br />
""If I cannot save lives, perhaps I can save souls,"" the priest answered and waded about waist deep in water at times consoling the injured.<br />
<br />
Another example of heroism was displayed by Martin VerKuilen of Medina who held his unconscious companion, Nic Fox, out of the water into which they were hurled when the rear of their dump truck was caught by the falling walls. The two were rescued by a boat and taken to the hospital where it was reported VerKuilen, although badly cut was not seriously hurt. Fox's skull is crushed and his condition is critical.<br />
<br />
By a trick of fate, Henry Huber, employed as assistant beaterman on the first floor of the ruined section, had been sent outside the building a minute before the accident on the other hand John Fiers, an oiler, who visits that section of the mill only a few minutes each day, was caught in the crush and killed.<br />

July 2, 2012<br />
(Editor's note: It was 80 years ago this spring, in May, 1932 that Antigo residents gathered for the formal dedication of the Deleglise cabin on the grounds of what was then the Antigo Public Library. The Antigo Daily Journal covered the event in a series of articles that looked at the program, the Deleglise family and the history of the cabin. This is an abridged version of a paper by Luke Leiterman read at dedication.)<br />
-----<br />
To us assembled here, this log cabin with the tablet it now bears, tells two stories, - the one about itself as the first dwelling in Antigo, and the other with this cabin as the scene of the first Holy Mass to be celebrated here. We wish to deal with the latter, and more particularly with the life and labors of the Reverend Philip St. Louis who brought the first spiritual consolations of the Catholic religion to the Catholic settlers of this community.<br />
<br />
Father St. Louis<br />
Philip St. Louis, the youngest of 12 children of Ephraim and Marie St. Louis, was born on April 15, 1848, at Little Chute. His studies were made under the Jesuit Fathers in Milwaukee and also under the guidance of the Servite Fathers who had established their first American home on Doty Island at Menasha in the summer of 1870. He later became a professed religious in that community and was the first Servite priest to be ordained in America. He was ordained to the priesthood on April 7, 1876, by Bishop Krautbauer of Green Bay, this being the first time since his elevation to the episcopate that the prelate had been called upon to perform that duty.<br />
<br />
Drew Plans for Monastery<br />
In the following September Father St. Louis went to Chicago, and while there drew the plans and superintended the erection of the Servite monastery in that city, and the church at Cicero. In May, 1879, while on a visit to Little Chute from Chicago, Father St. Louis undertook a visit to relatives who had previously settled at Phlox , and on this occasion administered to the spiritual wants of the people. In an older letter to a local resident, Father St. Louis writes of this visit: ""I came here (that is, to Phlox) for the first time in the month of May, 1879, and said Mass in Mr. Joseph St. Louis' old log house. I left Little Chute in the train and went as far as Clintonville (at that time the northern limit of the railroad) and there took a team and wagon and drove to Phlox. It took us two days and had to sleep in the woods.''<br />
<br />
Call To The North<br />
Just what induced Father St. Louis to direct his thoughts to a rather permanent life of labor in northern Wisconsin may be read in his own words: He writes: ""I thought I was tired, - tired in body and in mind - attending a congregation 10 miles from Chicago, building a church and large convent, looking to the masons and carpenters, working until midnight drawing plans, and, without explanations. I was sacristan, treasurer, and procurator; work and responsibility weighed heavily upon me. A man strong in mind and body could have borne it, but not I. Perhaps it was a want of will...but...I thought I was tired.''<br />
Consequently, early in 1880, Father St. Louis was transferred from Chicago to the Servite monastery on Doty Island, Menasha.<br />
<br />
First Mass in Antigo<br />
In April, 1880 Father St. Louis made his second visit to Phlox. Having heard of the Antigo settlement he journeyed thither on foot and on May 2, 1880, within the walls of this humble cabin, he celebrated the first Holy Mass in this community.<br />
<br />
Picture to yourselves that memorable event: Father St. Louis in youthful priestly enthusiasm entering the settlement with a pack on his back containing the necessary vestments and articles for the celebration of Mass; the greeting and warm reception at the door of the Deleglise cabin; the preparations, and finally the Mass itself. All unnecessary furniture was removed from the cabin, benches improvised, a large bureau converted into an altar, and even a volunteer choir led by a young bride sang the Mass without the aid of accompaniment.<br />
<br />
A true missionary zeal led Father St. Louis to seek permission to visit the scattered Catholics at Phlox and Antigo, whom he attended monthly for the next two years from Menasha. Neither bad roads and cold weather, nor the drawbacks of a none too robust constitution kept Father St. Louis from his missionary labors.<br />
<br />
Account of  Experiences<br />
The truly heroic zeal and determined effort of Father St. Louis on such occasions is aptly exemplified in the following account from his own pen, wherein he describes his experience on a trip from Appleton to Phlox. ""I left Appleton on Friday on the train and went as far as Eland Junction. Thence I walked to Birnamwood, there being no railroad then, and slept there at Mr. McDermott's boarding camp. It was a stormy night and there was fear that some trees would be blown down on the camp. In the morning the weather was raw, and a cold rain was drizzling.<br />
<br />
The McDermott family tried hard to detain me from going to Phlox on that day, (a distance of 24 miles), but Mass had to be said at Phlox on Sunday; I was determined to go. The kind woman lent me a short but waterproof cloak which was found of great service. With this cloak and my bundle I started on the surveyor's line for the right-of-way of the Lake Shore railroad, and at about 10 o'clock I reached the place, where is now the village of Elmhurst.<br />
<br />
There, seeing the marks of the Government survey on a tree, and thereby knowing that Phlox could be reached by traveling straight east, I turned to the direction. By that time the rain had turned into snow, and it was falling thick and fast; I was soaked clear through my clothing except the shoulders protected by the welcome cloak. It was no easy task to keep in the right direction; a small compass in my possession was not working on account of being soaked with water.'' ...Having entered a large swamp and ""advanced a short distance I took the pocket compass, shook it, and bit it, trying to take out the crystal, and finally lost in the snow and moss. It was a thoughtful moment: wet and cold, without matches to light fire, and the probability of passing the night in such a place.<br />
<br />
The swamp seemed endless, in fact I did not cross it, but followed it in all its length, having arrived, after four hours traveling, half a mile out of my way. I had traveled at the rate of one mile per hour. I now found a settler, and from there was a road to Phlox, where I arrived after dark.''<br />
<br />
Later years<br />
When the Antigo mission was given over to Father Lochman of Clintonville in the summer 1882, Father St. Louis took up his residence at Phlox and continued his labors there for the next 11 years. Here he organized St. Joseph parish, erected the church, and opened the parochial school.<br />
<br />
In September, 1893, Father St. Louis moved to the St. Joseph Orphanage at Green Bay and later to the Immaculate Conception parish at Florence, the duties of which he assumed on Oct. 10, 1895.<br />
<br />
In 1899 he was transferred to St. Patrick's parish at Lebanon. Two years later he took charge of Holy Cross parish at Mischicot, where he remained until he was transferred to St. Patrick's parish at Stiles, in Oconto County in 1909. From this place he attended a station at Abrams, also in Oconto County.<br />
<br />
Father St. Louis health was failing rapidly and in 1914, he repaired to Colorado Springs, Colo.<br />
<br />
During Holy Week and on Easter Sunday, 1928, he assisted at the services held in St. Mary's church at Colorado Springs. On Easter Monday he was taken ill. For six weeks he lingered between life and death, but finally on May 25, following a heart attack, at the advanced age of 80 years, the angel of death called him to his Maker Almighty God had granted his oft repeated wish ""To die in the harness, serving his Master until the end.''<br />
<br />
His mortal remains were interred in the priest's lot in the Evergreen cemetery at Colorado Springs. The memory of him, however, was not interred with his bones, for many people are now wont to speak of him as that ""wonderful old man,'' or ""dear old saint,'' for such he truly was."

"I148499","Stanelle","Eberhardt Gregore"," ","15 Mar 1877","19 Jun 1978","15 Mar 1973","Danville Illinois Newspaper","The following is an excerpt from an article that appeared in a Danville, Illinois, paper on March 15, 1973.<br />
Eberhardt G. Stanelle doesn't make a lot of demands, but he made one last fall.  ""I want to vote,"" he said.  Election commission representatives drove out to Danville Care South, where Stanelle has been a resident since February, 1970, and helped him with the process.  Age 95 at the time, he is believed to be the oldest person ever to register to vote in Vermilion County.  Stanelle, always a Republican, cast his fist vote in a presidential election for McKinley, his last for Nixon.  Though he suffered a paralytic stroke in January, 1970, he reads (the only time he wears glasses) two daily newspapers, numerous news magazines, and at least a chapter in his bible every day.  It was the stroke that brought him and his wife from Chicago to Danville, so as to be near a daughter. His wife, the former Frances Faga, died in 1971.<br />
Stanelle approved of the way that Nixon handled the Vietnam War and believes opening the door to Red China is the President's greatest accomplishment.  He feels the space program is wrong and fills the atmosphere with ""trash"" that messes up the weather and other things in nature.  When it comes to social problems, Stanelle feels people today rely too heavily on the government to take care of them.<br />
Stanelle was guest of honor last week at a 96th birthday party hosted by his daughter at Danville Care South.  Highlight of the party was a surprise greeting from President and Mrs. Nixon, signed by the President.  It, along with the envelope, is being framed for his room.<br />
Stanelle celebrated nearly 68 years of marriage before his wifes death. He was born in Forest Junction, WI, in a log home his parents built from timber cut from their own land.  When he was 10, they moved into a new 22 room home on the property that his parents also built.  At 17, he left home for North Central College at Naperville, IL.  After completing schooling, he worked as a railroad telegrapher in Park Siding, Michigan, a virtual wilderness 60 miles from Lake Superior.  In 1901 he came to Chicago to study engineering.<br />
He didn't get around to retiring until 84.  His first job after completion of his engineering course was with Automatic Electric Co., a Chicago-based, English-owned plant then only four years old.  When the Union of Operating Engineers attempted to keep him out of the Union, Stanelle brought suit against the Union and won, a verdict so unusual that it was featured at length in the Chicago papers.  Stanelle left Automatic Electric at age 78, after 51 years of service.  Retirement was so boring to him he took part time work with the Acme Resin Co. of Forest Park, IL, leaving that job at age 84.<br />
Before his stroke, Stanelle loved walking, fishing, traveling, and reading.  He never owned a car.  That caused difficulty only once, when during a transit strike in the Chicago area he found himself eight miles from work.  He walked at first, then purchased a bicycle and used it until the strike was ended.  A staunch supporter of education, Stanelle even sent all his daughters to college even though that was not the norm at the time.  Once the children were grown, the Stanelle's traveled extensively throughout the United States, occasionally crossing borders into Mexico or Canada.  They were never inclined to go abroad as they felt there was too much to see right here in this country.<br />

U.S. Army veteran Matt Tennessen calls himself an ""IED magnet.""<br />
His 13-month deployment to Afghanistan in 2009 was fraught with the improvised explosive devices aimed at killing American soldiers and cutting off supply routes. Bombs blasted his mine-resistant vehicle four times.<br />
Now 33, his body broken, Tennessen relies on the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs for medical care.<br />
But that, too, was a battle. Like many returning Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, Tennessen found the VA's health care and benefits system difficult to comprehend and use. It took tenacity to get results.<br />
""It was a very difficult and long process because of the bureaucracy in the VA,"" said Tennessen, who lives in Kaukauna. ""Now that I've been through it, though, I feel like I can help guys know who to talk to and how to stay motivated.""<br />
Tennessen is doing just that. He's now a local representative for Wounded Warriors in Action, which provides hunting trips for veterans. He also is involved in a peer-to-peer mentoring and intervention system.<br />
Tennessen said a backlog in disability claims has swamped the VA in recent years, meaning veterans in Wisconsin still wait months, sometimes years, to settle compensation ratings. That delay churns bitterness toward the tentacled organization, and veterans stop trying to get help, he said.<br />
So he seeks out veterans who either have fallen through the cracks or are frustrated with their health care. When Tennessen hears about veterans with mental health challenges, he'll drive to distant apartments to make sure the soldiers, Marines, sailors or airmen find help.<br />
The ""peer-to-peer"" system is a loose but growing model.<br />
Since the Vietnam War, 300 ""Vet Centers"" have been set up around the country as a less formal entry to the VA. They're located in strip malls, where casually dressed veterans offer counseling as ""a conduit to care.""<br />
Still, some veterans, such as Tennessen, say the centers need more help to deal with those who are experiencing chronic problems.<br />
Suits and doctors<br />
Through a mutual friend, Tennessen connected with Joshua Huber last August.<br />
he 24-year-old Army veteran from Oshkosh saw combat in Iraq in 2007, when enemy fighters shot a rocket a few feet from his position. He was struck with shrapnel, breaking his shoulder blade and cracking his skull.<br />
Huber was struggling with a job and now works with Tennessen to help other veterans sort disability claims and connect with professionals.<br />
Huber attended a conference on post-traumatic stress disorder this fall in Appleton, and immediately felt disconnected from the ""professionals.""<br />
""Whenever someone in a suit begins with their title as a doctor, I stop listening. I know the spiel,"" Huber said. ""Every veteran goes through two weeks of reintegration and hears the same stories about PTSD. That kind of talk isn't helpful when you're back.""<br />
Huber said veterans need to connect with other combat veterans instead of undergoing clinical analysis.<br />
""(Fellow veterans) can talk about why you woke up in a closet and don't know why, or talk through some of your nightmares,"" he said.<br />
Tim Bahr, a retired Marine, is a peer support specialist at the Rhinelander regional VA. He said he is seeing positive results but noted that he's the only one in the state who is running the VA-sponsored program. He called a lack of congressional support for peer counselors ""criminal.""<br />
""The VA is full of trained therapists,"" Bahr said. ""Once you put that sheepskin on the wall as an educated social worker, you can't go back to being a peer. You can't undo the credentialing, and you are forced to analyze them.""<br />
Bahr favors a system of acceptance and support, with ""your mouth shut and ears open,"" and compares the recovery process to Alcoholics Anonymous.<br />
""We work on figuring out how to function in society,"" he said. ""It's not coping, not fitting in. It's living and managing for the rest of your life.""<br />
Vital training<br />
Michael Bearden, the VA's deputy regional manager of readjustment counseling, oversees 46 Midwest Vet Centers, including the five in Wisconsin.<br />
He has heard the call for more combat veterans to offer counseling on a peer level, and he said that's the reason veterans get preference in hiring by the VA.<br />
In Green Bay, 60 percent of the center's staff members are veterans. In the five state centers, 73 percent are veterans.<br />
Bearden cautions, however, that professional training is essential, especially for suicide intervention where mistakes could push a veteran away and be devastating.<br />
""Let's say you were in an automobile accident; you wake up on a table, and the doctor says, 'Don't worry son; I'm a great surgeon; I'm going to save your life.' And you raise up your arm and say, 'Wait a minute, have you ever been in an automobile accident?'"" Bearden said. ""The point is: You want someone who really knows what they're doing.""<br />
Bearden said the Vet Centers are aimed directly at the myth that the ""VA is against you.""<br />
It's staffed with workers who are available nights and weekends —  whenever veterans need help, he said.<br />
Many of the perceived problems with the VA come down to customer service, said Gary Kunich, a Milwaukee-based spokesman.<br />
He said outreach efforts have ramped up with transitional counselors and with new communications on Facebook and other communication tools.<br />
The organization is transitioning for the arrival of waves of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, under the leadership of Gen. Eric Shinseki, Kunich said.<br />
""The Department of Veterans Affairs has a mandate to hire 30 percent veterans this year,"" Kunich said. ""With 120 new positions open soon in the Green Bay hospital, someone with a military background would certainly rise to the top of that.<br />

"I334911","Unknown","Dorothy","Johnson","Abt 1926","31 Oct 2015","4 Nov 2015","Appleton Post Crescent","News this week of the passing of former Appleton Mayor Dorothy Johnson brings to mind a different kind of obituary that was almost written three decades ago  -  the death of downtown Appleton.<br />
The obit was never written because the patient not only didn't die but eventually, after some growing pains, thrived.<br />
Dorothy Johnson's dogged fight to keep her beloved city's downtown relevant and bustling is a big part of her legacy.<br />
Johnson, who died Saturday at the age of 89, served as mayor from 1980 to 1992. Those who were here at the time will recall that the construction of a certain mall in what was then a farm field just west of Appleton had downtown Appleton on the ropes.<br />
The battle that brewed between Appleton and Grand Chute, the rise of the Fox River Mall at the heart of it, was so testy it even drew the attention of the Washington Post in 1981.<br />
The Post reported: ""Appleton's chief retail district is still right in the heart of town. The 10 central blocks of College Avenue, the city's main street, are dotted with locally owned department stores, restaurants, book stores and pharmacies  -  creating the kind of neat, wholesome and tax-generating central business district that many other cities Appleton's size lost years ago.""<br />
Johnson, then just a year into her tenure, told the Post she intended to keep it that way.<br />
""We have a nice, busy downtown,"" she said. ""No peep shows, nothing boarded up. But you see, if they put that mall out there, they're moving my tax base and my workforce into a cornfield outside the (city) limits. This is why we have to fight.""<br />
And fight she did.<br />
But the mall was built, and it was a grand success as far as malls go.<br />
The expected retail flight from the downtown began. The pencil that would write the downtown's obituary was already being sharpened.<br />
Then Johnson turned her attention to a Plan B, the construction of a downtown mall, a venture that proved costly, controversial and, on the surface, unsuccessful. The Avenue Mall was mostly a failure as malls go, never drawing enough retail interest to make it viable.<br />
Critics with a sense of humor would dub the nearly empty mall the Johnson Space Center.<br />
But that mall, which drew so much ire that it almost drowned out Johnson's mayoral accomplishments, would eventually be transformed into City Center Plaza  -  mostly office space, housing, and among other things, City Hall. It would become a centerpiece of a downtown reinventing itself into a bustling entertainment district, mixing restaurants, hotels, bars, coffee shops, museums, shopping boutiques and a sprawling performing arts center.<br />
Much of that revival, including the building of the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center, would come well after Johnson left office. But her determined efforts, including the 1982 construction of what is now the Radisson Paper Valley Hotel and the development of the public square known as Houdini Plaza, laid the foundation for the fight to keep the city's downtown bustling. Johnson set a tone  -  the downtown, a city's heart and soul, is worth fighting for  -  that continues to resonate all these years later.<br />
It turns out the city's first and thus far only female mayor had plenty of fight in her. And those who enjoy today's downtown Appleton  -  from the Saturday morning farmer's markets and summertime concerts to the glorious Mile of Music festival and bar and restaurant scene to the children's museum and art galleries  -  should raise a toast to those who fought the good fight. Dorothy Johnson is at the front of that line.<br />

"I334911","Unknown","Dorothy","Johnson","Abt 1926","31 Oct 2015","4 Nov 2015","Appleton Post Crescent","APPLETON  -  Former Mayor Dorothy Johnson was remembered Tuesday as a trailblazer for women in politics and a champion for Appleton.<br />
Johnson died Saturday from natural causes at her home in Highlands Ranch, Colo., where she and her husband, Rue, lived for the past five years. She was 89.<br />
In 1980, Johnson was elected as Appleton's first and only female mayor. She served three consecutive terms, leaving office in 1992. Before her reign as mayor, she served a term on the Appleton Board of Education.<br />
""Obviously, she was a pathfinder for women,"" former Neenah Mayor Marigen Carpenter said. ""I think she made it easier for many of the rest of us because she did such a good job.""<br />
Johnson was in office when the Fox River Mall was built in Grand Chute. The mall's arrival nearly crippled downtown Appleton, the city's main retail district at the time, and forced the downtown to reinvent itself to survive.<br />
Mayor Tim Hanna, who served as an alderman during Johnson's last term, said projects like the Paper Valley Hotel, Avenue Mall (now City Center Plaza) and Houdini Plaza helped turn the downtown around.<br />
""When you look back now, Appleton did not experience as deep of a decline as so many other cities,"" Hanna said. ""That was due to proactive things that happened under Dorothy's leadership.""<br />
Carpenter said she admired Johnson. ""She was farsighted, I think,"" Carpenter said. ""Her work regarding the looming Fox River Mall and trying to position her downtown to continue in health was certainly a factor in my thinking.""<br />
Hanna credited Johnson for making peace with Grand Chute. The city and town signed a border agreement during her final term. ""It was one of the first ones that was negotiated in the state,"" Hanna said. ""It was really historic.""<br />
Former Post-Crescent reporter David Horst covered Johnson's administration for six years. He described her as a woman of courage and principle and said she was ""absolutely dedicated to Appleton."" She was also very politically astute.<br />
""I only remember one time that she was surprised by a vote,"" Horst said. ""She always knew what was going to happen in the council meetings.""<br />
The one time Johnson was surprised, the vote ended in a tie. Horst said Johnson supported the issue but believed a mayor shouldn't cast the deciding vote to make something happen.<br />
""Even though she was in favor of the issue, she voted against it to stick to her principle,"" he said. ""Then, of course, she eventually got a reconsideration and got it anyway.""<br />
After her terms as mayor, Johnson served on the Wisconsin Ethics Board for 10 years and as board president of the St. Joseph Food Program in Menasha.<br />
Johnson's son, David, said his parents moved to Colorado in 2010 to be closer to their daughters and grandchildren. He said his mother was a great woman and a fantastic mother.<br />
""Her accomplishments are myriad,"" David said from his home in Bethlehem, Pa. ""She makes me proud, and her life motivates me to be better and to work harder as she did.""<br />

"I2988","Valentyn","Scott"," ","Abt 1989","","19 Mar 2013","Appleton Post Crescent","Seminarian with Little Chute ties shares papal election experience.<br />
ROME - Rain poured on Scott Valentyn as he stood in St. Peter's Square last week waiting for black smoke to rise from the Vatican chimney.<br />
But to the 24-year-old Little Chute native's surprise - and much of the rest of the world's - the smoke that billowed from the chimney March 13 was white, which meant the College of Cardinals had chosen a new pope.<br />
""It was an unforgettable experience,"" said Valentyn, who is in Rome studying to become a priest for the Diocese of Green Bay.<br />
Surrounded by thousands in the square that night, Valentyn listened to Pope Francis' first blessing as the new leader of the Catholic church. Thousands gathered again Tuesday in the square for Pope Francis' inaugural Mass.<br />
Post-Crescent Media interviewed Valentyn via email last week. This is an edited transcript of the interview.<br />
Can you describe what happened in St. Peter's Square the night Pope Francis was elected?<br />
The grayish smoke started coming out of the chimney and we were all just waiting for it to turn black. After a couple seconds, the smoke didn't seem to be changing. We realized that this was it, the smoke was getting whiter. It was hard to believe that it was actually happening until everyone started yelling and rushing forward to try to get as close as we could to the balcony. The whole square went crazy and at some points I was even lifted off the ground from all the people around pushing forward. There were a lot of ""Viva il Papa!"" chants going up sporadically over the next hour as we all stood waiting for the curtain to open.<br />
When the curtain opened, the first thing we saw was a crucifix being carried out, followed by the new pope. I will never forget how crazy people went in the square over this one man. It was incredible. What really caught my attention was the humble way he received this cheering. It was so exciting and crazy and everyone was just waiting for him to finally speak, but he seemed more like an example of peace and calmness.<br />
What does it mean to you to have almost a front row seat to such a historical and monumental experience?<br />
We ended up only about 100 feet back from the main barrier and almost dead center so we had almost as good of a seat as you could get. It was incredible. It was a great reminder to me of how alive the church truly is. To see so many people from all over the world packed into St. Peter's Square just to catch a glimpse of the man who would now lead the church as Peter, was life changing. The experience of watching a 76-year-old man who barely anyone in the square prior to March 13 step onto the balcony and cause the entire place to erupt with cheers and applause was also indescribable. I will never forgot the profound humility he displayed in his humble reception of all the applause.<br />
What has the city been like since Pope Benedict XVI announced his retirement?<br />
The city has certainly been a little busier than usual with many people visiting in order to be present for the election. While the voting was going on, there was a definite sense of anticipation. Many of us would go down to St. Peter's Square about 30 minutes before the smoke was supposed to come up. Once you were in the square, the atmosphere seemed like one of excitement but, at the same time, most people seemed to think the smoke would still be black for a few more days so it was kind of a reserved excitement.<br />
The city was absolutely filled with reporters. Since seminarians wear the Roman collar, all of these reporters assumed we were priests with inside knowledge of who the next pope would be. We couldn't walk anywhere near St. Peter's without getting asked to do interviews. I found myself in many situations where the reporters must have assumed I was fluent in more than just English. I think I was asked to do an interview for a Chinese news station and a German one but I can't be sure since I don't speak Chinese or German.<br />
What were you doing when you heard about Benedict's retirement?<br />
I had actually just stepped off a plane in Ireland. Some of my classmates and I decided to spend a week in Ireland right after we finished final exams and the announcement was made during the flight. Apparently there were some teenagers toward the back of the plane who picked it up on their iPhones but none of the other seminarians took them seriously. When we got off the plane, we saw that every TV in the airport was showing an image of Pope Benedict making his announcement.<br />
What was your reaction to Benedict's announcement?<br />
My reaction was a combination of sadness because I love the Holy Father, happiness for him because I trusted that he made the decision after much prayer and consideration and was acting for the good of the church, as well as excitement to know that I would be present for a conclave. It also came as a complete shock.<br />
How will Pope Francis affect your life?<br />
As a Catholic, he is a father to me. As a seminarian, I also look to the Holy Father as an inspiration in my own vocation to the priesthood. Finally, my presence in Rome affords me the opportunity to be present at many of his public appearances. Since he is such a visible reminder of the 2,000-year tradition of the office of Peter, the experience is always very moving.<br />

The charge that anv moonshiner in Outajramie-co. can be acquitted by asking for a jury trial was refuted Monday when a jury of twelve men sitting: on the case of Henry Van prominent saloonkeeper of Kaukauna. found him guilty of having moonshine whisky in his possession. Judge A. M., Spencer of the municipal court also refused to entertain a motion of Attorneys Rooney and Gropan for a stay of execution and sentenced Van Abel to 40 days in the county workhouse, without option of paying a fine. The verdict of guilty was brought in by the jury after nearly three hours of deliberation and a hard fight by the state. Moonshine seized by federal prohibition agents in the raid on the. saloon Jan. 21 was found, upon analysis, to contain about 8 per cent alcohol, the officers testified. Further testimony brought out that the defendant, on seeing the raiders approach, took the whisky kept in a fruit jar and poured it into a rinsing trough back of the bar. Two sons of Van Abel testified that they had ""picked up"" this liquor in bottles about the place, having been left there by men who frequent the saloon. The conviction and sentence of the Kaukauna saloonkeeper brings to an end a case that has been adjourned several times since last January.<br />

2009 Person of the Year: A lifetime of conquering adversity<br />
<br />
From a family bout with polio to a community hit by recession, NTC President Lori Weyers has learned to do what it takes to lead.<br />
<br />
By Robert Mentzer<br />
Wausau Daily Herald<br />
<br />
When Lori Weyers became president of Northcentral Technical College in 2006, the school had seen six years of declining enrollment.<br />
<br />
""We had a lot of challenges,"" Weyers said.<br />
<br />
This year, the school reached the ""3/3/3"" goal Weyers set for NTC upon her arrival -- reaching an enrollment of 3,000 full-time equivalent students and 30,000 students overall in three years. Gallery: Lori Weyers, 2009 Person of the Year<br />
<br />
The ""3/3/3"" goal was part of Weyers' plan to turn around a declining college. But it was far from the only part. The school also faced image problems in the community, and Weyers believed NTC wasn't as tied in as it should have been with industry, high schools and other stakeholders. She held a series of meetings with more than 300 people across ""every part of the 5,900 square miles of our district,"" she said.<br />
<br />
""I went out and just asked them, what's working well? What's not working well? ... We developed our whole action plan for the three years I've just completed as president around what we heard.""<br />
<br />
NTC's reach across north central Wisconsin includes all or part of 10 counties, including Marathon, Lincoln, Taylor, Price, Langlade and Portage counties. It has six campuses -- Wausau, Antigo, Medford, Phillips, Spencer and Wittenberg, as well as a Public Safety Training and Education Center in Merrill. In all, there are 359 full-time employees and 63 part-time employees, and a 2009-10 operational budget of $43.9 million.<br />
<br />
And leading it all is Weyers.<br />
<br />
Her hard work in collaborating with a range of businesses and others put NTC in a position, when the worst of this year's recession hit, to be uniquely responsive to the issues the economy posed in our community. And it's for this work that the Wausau Daily Herald's Editorial Board has named Lori Weyers the 2009 Person of the Year.<br />
<br />
A childhood of adversity<br />
<br />
Weyers has known adversity her whole life. Born in the Fox Valley village of Little Chute, she was infected with polio in the 1955 outbreak -- called the ""summer of fear"" in contemporary accounts -- and her block was quarantined.<br />
<br />
Weyers was 3. Her older brother, Randy, who was 6, also was infected. He got the disease earlier, and he got it much, much worse.<br />
<br />
""He was paralyzed, totally,"" she said. ""He could only blink his eyes. ... He couldn't breathe, and so they had to put him in an iron lung until they could figure out how bad the polio was going to be.""<br />
<br />
Both of the children received the polio vaccine. Because Weyers had been infected later, she made virtually a full recovery. Her brother survived, in time regained the use of his muscles, including the ability to walk with the use of a cane. (He would later become a teacher, and Weyers described him as ""an absolutely brilliant man."") But it took some 20 surgeries for him to get better, and Weyers' mother spent much of Lori's childhood caring for him, and taking him back and forth to Madison for treatments and surgeries.<br />
<br />
""I really started running the household at 10,"" Weyers said. ""My dad worked shifts (at the paper mill), and it was up to me to kind of take care of things, because my mother had to be with my brother.""<br />
<br />
It was that experience of growing up in a family where her brother needed so much extra attention that led Weyers into her first career path, which was in rehabilitation counseling. And it might have been because of her own experience of overcoming adversity -- with the help of scholarships, she worked her way through college -- that she was attracted to the technical college system, and its students, many of whom also are putting themselves through school.<br />
<br />
Weyers' husband, Gary, owns a farm implement dealership. The couple have been married for 35 years, with two grown sons and two grandsons whose pictures adorn her office.<br />
<br />
""Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I'd be sitting here today being the president of a college,"" she said.<br />
<br />
'Consummate collaborator'<br />
<br />
Weyers is known in the community as a person who gets things done. Passionate about her job, her institution and Wisconsin's technical college system at large, she speaks in lengthy paragraphs and becomes animated while talking about the way new technologies will shape the future of north central Wisconsin's economy.<br />
<br />
""Lori is the consummate collaborator,"" said Wausau's Mark Bradley, a member and former board president of the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents. ""She sees what our region of the state needs from her institution, and she goes about getting buy-in from everyone whose involvement is necessary to achieve that goal -- often leaving others with the impression that it was their idea in the first place.""<br />
<br />
""I spend probably about 80 percent of my time out, making sure we are doing what we can do to serve our communities,"" Weyers said. ""We've worked very hard on relationships, partnerships and collaboration. We understand at NTC that you can't go it alone.""<br />
<br />
Between the 2006-07 school year and 2008-09, NTC's full-time student population grew by more than 16 percent from 2,729 to 3,167. The total number of students grew from 19,851 to 22,104.<br />
<br />
Those are not the only measures of the school's growth. In the same amount of time, the number of businesses it served grew from 158 to 219. The number of employees served -- through on-the-job training programs and other services -- grew by an amazing 60 percent, from 4,148 in the 2006-07 school year to 6,927 in 2008-09.<br />
<br />
""And our operating budget is up seven-tenths of 1 percent,"" she said. ""You don't do that unless you partner and collaborate and look at doing things differently.""<br />
<br />
Help for laid-off workers<br />
<br />
For Deb Busco of Wausau, getting laid off from her night-shift job making piston rings at the Federal Mogul factory in Schofield in October 2008 changed her life. After the initial shock of finding herself out of work, Busco, 52, decided that furthering her education at NTC could be a way to embark on a new career path.<br />
<br />
""I saw it as an opportunity to get out of the factory and start a new career, to try something different and interesting,"" Busco said.<br />
<br />
Now halfway through NTC's two-year health care business services program, Busco said she has high hopes that her degree will allow her to find a job when she graduates. (Even in the past year, the school's job placement rate for graduates is 91 percent.) She said Weyers, whom she's come to know a little, is a positive presence at the school.<br />
<br />
""Lori seems to be really involved in everything,"" Busco said. ""She's not just one to sit in her office. She's concerned about all the different programs and making sure everything is going well.""<br />
<br />
In August, an NTC survey found that 1,400 students there were dislocated workers, according to Susan Ryman, marketing and public relations coordinator for the college.<br />
<br />
It's clear that -- with unemployment in Marathon County at 8 percent as recently as October, and above 9 percent between March and July -- some workers have been driven to seek further education by circumstances beyond their control. But it's also the case that Weyers has led a concerted effort throughout 2009 to reach out to laid-off and otherwise displaced workers.<br />
<br />
""We have a rapid-response team that immediately goes to the company (that has announced layoffs) to start talking with individuals, with company leaders about how we can help,"" Weyers said. In partnership with the North Central Wisconsin Workforce Development Board and the Wisconsin Job Center, NTC reaches out to workers.<br />
<br />
""This is a very traumatic time for a lot of people,"" Weyers said. ""We work in a team approach to see what we can do to assist people as they transition.""<br />
<br />
'Here to serve'<br />
<br />
Besides specialized outreach and programs to laid-off workers, among the major achievements Weyers spearheaded in 2009 was securing funding for Dairyland State Academy, a new farming program that will teach new practices that integrate renewable energies. She also established a credit-transfer agreement with the new private Rasmussen College in Wausau.<br />
<br />
But most of all, she led a college that is focused on serving its students and serving the community. That includes serving longtime manufacturing workers whose basic skills are not always up to today's standards.<br />
<br />
While layoffs drove a number of newly unemployed workers to NTC, the fact is that as an institution, NTC was able to make services available to them. In a large part, that is because of the hard work, creative thinking and relentless collaboration Weyers has brought to NTC.<br />
<br />
""We will work diligently for the community to keep business strong,"" she said. ""We need to look at things differently -- looking at it through the eyes of the learner. We are here to serve our communities and our learners."""

WWII MARINE RAIDERS IDENTIFIED, RETURNING HOME The remains of 19 World War II Marine Raiders killed in action on Butaritari Island (Makin Atoll) and listed as missing in action since August 1942 were recently identified, and will be returned to their families for burial.

Pvt. Charles A. Selby, Ontonagon, Mich.The Marines were members of the Marine Corps' 2nd Raider Battalion, killed during the August 17-18, 1942, raid on Japanese-held Butaritari Island, during which an estimated 83 Japanese soldiers were killed.Lt. Col. Evans F. Carlson commanded the Raiders during the operation, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt's son, Capt. James Roosevelt, was the operation's second-in-command. Ferried to the island by submarine and landing on and departing Butaritari by rubber boats, the Marines were unable to evacuate the bodies of their fallen comrades.With the assistance of island inhabitants, including a man who assisted in the burial of the Marines in 1942, a recovery team from the U.S. Army Central Identification Laboratory, Hawaii (CILHI) uncovered a mass grave and excavated the remains in November and December 1999. That operation was preceded by an initial investigation in August 1998 and an unsucces sful recovery effort in May 1999. The U.S. Marine Raider Association provided invaluable assistance with firsthand information and documentation about their combat on Butaritari. In late 1999, the CILHI began an exhaustive forensic identification process, including the use of mitochondrial DNA, to confirm the identities of the Marines. Marine Corps officials, using historical military records and more modern search techniques, located the next of kin of each of the Marines. Arrangements for the transportation and burial of the Marines are underway, in consultation with the families. The first burial is expected to be that of Cpl. Yarbrough in Sikeston, Mo. in December. Among the remains recovered are those of Sgt. Clyde Thomason, the first enlisted Marine awarded the Medal of Honor during World War II.The identification of these Marines contributes to the ongoing effort by the Department of Defense to locate and identify more than 88,000 American service members who remain missing in action from World War II, the Cold War, the Korean War and the Vietnam War.<br />

Clyde Thomason, whose remains will be among those interred Friday, was the first enlisted Marine to earn the Medal of Honor in World War II.During the two-day battle, the Raiders killed an estimated 83 Japanese soldiers, but their attempts to leave the island were bedeviled by a high and crashing surf and they were unable to evacuate the bodies of their fallen comrades.In November 1999, a recovery team from the U.S. Army Central Identification Laboratory, Hawaii (CILHI), uncovered a mass grave on Butaritari Island and excavated the remains. The remains were transported to CILHI where an exhaustive process led to the identification of the Marines and the subsequent notification of their families.The remains will arrive at Andrews Air Force Base, Md., on Thursday at 9: 30 a.m. An arrival ceremony will be conducted by Marines from Marine Barracks, Washington, D.C. and the President's Own, United States Marine Band. For media access to the arrival at Andrews or the ceremony at Arlington, contact Marine Capt. Joseph Kloppel at (703) 614-4309.<br />

J. C. VAN NEIL DEADThe death of J. C. VAN NIEL, one of the oldest settlers in this section,occurred Friday last, at his home in Little chute, aged 83 years. Mr. VANNEIL had been gradually failing for the pat year. he came to Little Chutewith the three sail shop loads of Hollanders brought to America by Fath er VANDEN BROCK, the early pioneer priest of the Fox River Valley He was quire ascholar, having once prepared himself for the priesthood, and was also not edas an antiquarian. in the early days of Little Chute Mr. VAN NEIL was quit eprominent in a business way in that place. He opened up an extensive stonequarry about the time of the construction of the canal and locks of the Fo xRiver Improvement company. A large wood yard where he handled many thousan dsof cords each year was also run by him. Another enterprise was a warehou se toaccommodate the traffic of the steamboats then plying up and down the Fox river. In after years, however, his time was taken up with more congenialemployments. At one time he owned the only Catholic book store in the stat e,having in stock several thousand volumes of books. This was destroyed by f irein 1872, only a few books about 100 being saved. These, however, were amon gthe choicest of his collection, on of which is now over 250 years old. Theloss of his books was a sad blow to Mr. VAN NEIL and to the day of his dea th he had not ceased to mourn the loss. At one side of his home and just in front stands an altar which has beenviewed by perhaps hundreds of people, many of whom however failed to learnmuch of it's origin. According to the Latin inscription which surmounts it ,it was built over two score years ago, by Mr. VAN NEIL under the directi on ofFather T. J. VAN DEN BROCK. here the native Indian was led by this Hollandpriest to worship, and also here came processions from St. John's church f orthe same purpose. This custom however has long since give way to more mode rnusages. Leading out from the cellar of his house is an underground passagewhich ends in what was at an early day a distillery. The cobblestone chimn eyinto which led the iron pipes of the still yet stands. The building for ma nyyears has been used by it's owner as a curiosity shop. Here are stored qua intand curious articles, old books, relics, etc., too numerous to mention. Th ewhip saw, once used by Father VAN DEN BROCK's own hands to cut boards fromthe logs of the forest, with the assistance of his only companions, thenative Indians; the draw shave used by him in making shingles, and othertools used in the construction of the first primitive church in Little Chu te,have been religiously preserved by this lifelong friend of the early pione er priest. Among the treasures kept by him of those early days is a high silk hatpurchased by Father VAN DEN BROCK in Holland just before starting for Amer icathe first time in 1833. It has a wide rim and bell crown, the material bei ngvery fine, and enough of the same to make two high hats of today's styl e. Hehas also other old style silk hates of several later dates, and a longbroadcloth cloak reaching to the ground, which also was a gift from his ol dfriend the Holland priest. Mr. VAN NEIL has often proudly worn these ancie ntarticles in public, and has more than once been photographed while thus arrayed. The story of those early days, as told by J. C. VAN NEIL to a representati veof The Times during the last year of his life sounds like a romance, andcould it all have been written, it would be intensely interesting. When helanded at Little Chute dense forests covered he whole country. A trip toAppleton and return often took his pioneer two days by the only road, anIndian trail. The way led in and out through the forests, wading at timesthrough deep marshes and woods, climbing over windfalls, which often almos tentirely blocked the way, the few miles intervening was a serious job toundertake. A widow, the second wife of Mr. VAN NEIL survives him. The deceased was buried Monday morning at nine o'clock from St. John's chu rch Father KNEGTEL conducting the ceremonies"

Of the Catholic Sentinel<br />
Edward Van Dyke is somebody.<br />
This he is reminded of on a daily basis in his downtown office where he has posted a sign that reads: ""I know I'm somebody 'cause God don't make no junk.""<br />
While the sign was initially met with some controversy  -  co-workers complained it was inappropriate for the workplace  -  Van Dyke held his ground on his right to post the sign because he believes it's a message worth remembering. The sign has been displayed for more than two years.<br />
""I keep copies, so I can put up a new one every once in a while, when one gets too tattered,"" he said.<br />
At home, Edward's list of ""somebodies"" is a long one. He and his wife Sharon have 10 children. There is also the extended web of Van Dyke relatives peppered throughout Washington County, a result being descended from one of the original Dutch families to settle in the area. Big families have long been a tradition of the Van Dykes, starting with Edward's great-great-grandfather, Theodore, who landed in Verboort after emigrating from a densely Catholic area of Holland. Big families are common among the other Catholic settler families' ancestors, too, as evidenced by the many Vandeheys, Vanderzandens, Meeuwsens, Herinckxes and other relatives densely clustered in the area, filling local phonebooks with Dutch names.<br />
For Edward and Sharon, the adventure started 28 years ago when their first son, Jonathan, was born. Nine more followed, most siblings two or three years apart. All spent their childhood at the family's house in Gaston, several miles south of Forest Grove. For the past 28 years, their home has been filled with a symphony of boisterous laughter, homework questions, complaints about chores and everything else that comes along with raising youngsters.<br />
""What I have loved seeing with my kids is that they really rely on each other's friendship,"" Sharon said.<br />
The family today is Jonathan, 27, Heidi, 25, Ronald Charles II, 23, Alicia, 21, Hannah, 18, Cassandra, 15, Lindsay, 13, Nathaniel, 11, Jackson, 9, and Zachary, 7.<br />
Sharon and Edward count off on their fingers to make sure they've remembered everyone.<br />
Having family around at all times is nothing new for the family. Edward is descended from Theodore Van Dyke, born in 1847 in Holland. The patriarch settled in Verboort in 1880. Many of Edward's relatives, newer generations from old farming families, have also stayed in the area. Some of the old farm acreage has been sold, but the familial connections remain.<br />
The Van Dykes live on a country road a couple miles out of town. Edward, 49, retired in 2002 as a sergeants major after 22 years in the military, the highest non-commissioned officer rank in the Army.<br />
Edward enlisted in the Oregon Army National Guard in January 1980, while he still a junior in high school. After training, he accepted an active duty tour with ORANG as an administrative specialist for an infantry battalion. During this time, he traveled to several training exercises including the Naval Amphibious Assault Course at Coronado, San Diego, as well as Leadership Development Courses.<br />
In 1984, Edward accepted a new position as a recruiter. Even though he found the job challenging due to his introverted personality, he was awarded the Chief's Fifty Award in 1985 (an award given to the top recruiter in each state). He was presented this award in Washington, D.C., by the chief of the National Guard Bureau. It was an unusual accomplishment for a rookie recruiter.<br />
He continued working in recruiting, increasing in rank over the years. In 1994, Edward was assigned to lead a platoon during the North Wind Exercise in Hoikido, Japan, a joint exercise with the Japanese Defense Force.  In 1996, Edward was awarded his Air Assault Wings after completing the Air Assault Course at Camp Gruber, Oklahoma, at the age of 36. He was more than 10 years older than the average trainee.<br />
In 1998, while still working in the Recruiting Force, Edward was promoted to sergeants major, a position he kept covering the state of Oregon until his retirement from the military in 2002.<br />
In his new career, the father commutes an hour-and-a-half (one way) every weekday into Portland where he works as a claims manager for the Oregon Department of Veterans' Affairs. He advocates for Oregon veterans and their dependents who are seeking benefits with the federal VA.<br />
Colleagues say he is a good boss who is a hard worker and a family man. Sharon and Edward invite coworkers out to their home for picnics in the summer. Ron Kincaid, a veteran's benefits counselor, said Van Dyke's family makes a good and memorable impression.<br />
""He and his wife were a good host and hostess,"" Kincaid said. ""And there are always kids around, older or young.""<br />
Sharon, 48, worked as dance instructor and a veterinary technician until child No. 3 arrived, when her primary job became raising their children.<br />
They bought their house in Gaston in 1995. They share their property with an occasional beef cow, horse, chickens, alpacas and llamas and a Jacob sheep that Sharon found wandering on the side of the road. A softy for animals, she shepherded the lost creature with her car  - and after posting ""lost sheep"" signs all over town, the family accepted the sheep as one of their own.<br />
Sharon, whose family moved to the area when she was 11, grew up in a comparatively small family, with only one brother and one sister.<br />
Their Fourth of July family get-together is always memorable, she said. With Edward's siblings' immediate families, along with nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, and Sharon's parents and siblings, the gathering is quite the affair.<br />
This past October, Edward and Sharon  proudly introduced the first two of a new generation in their family: Alicia and Rodney's baby Chloe, and Ronnie and Shaylee's baby Zachary (named after his uncle).<br />
Edward and Sharon were sweethearts at Hillsboro High School. They were students in history and biology classes, and she asked him to a Sadie Hawkins dance their senior year.<br />
""By our second date, I was in love,"" Sharon said. They married two years later in 1982.<br />
Despite a busy schedule, the family is involved in its parish of nine years, St. Anthony's in Forest Grove. He's on the administrative council and they both help run the annual fundraising spaghetti dinner. He's a lector and she helps with youth ministry.<br />
Being active in his parish is something Edward learned from his grandparents, Joe and Marjorie.<br />
""[Grandma] was a person who I could always talk to about my faith,"" Edward said. ""She was an inspiration.""<br />
He grew up helping out at the Verboort's annual sausage and sauerkraut dinner, pouring coffee and doing whatever else was needed.<br />
So many years of supporting their community and church came back to the Van Dyke family three years ago, when it was discovered that Sharon had a malformation of blood vessels in her brain that was causing seizures. Medication was successful in treating the symptoms, but did not correct the cause of the seizures, so Sharon was referred to an expert at Stanford University Medical Center where she would undergo neurosurgery on her brain.<br />
Edward still tears up when the family talks about that time.<br />
Sharon stayed at Stanford for 10 days in recovery, but when she arrived home to Gaston there were two-months' worth of meals that had come in from St. Anthony parishioners, neighbors and friends.<br />
Their kids stepped up to take care of each other, as well as the many animals on the property and upkeep of the house.<br />
""It was quite an ordeal, but we had amazing support,"" Sharon said. A year after surgery, Sharon was weaned from medication and has since made a full recovery.<br />
It's a lesson in the benefit of having so much family in such close proximity. That time could have been even more difficult than it already was without so much familial support, they said.<br />
""Our family is our family and that's where we get our strength,"" Sharon said."

Of the Catholic Sentinel<br />
<br />
For the children of Edward and Sharon Van Dyke, running into friends at church with their own Dutch last name is perfectly normal. At St. Anthony Church alone, there are eight registered Van Dyke families, a small sampling of dozens of distant (and not so distant) relatives peppered around Washington County. Those relatives have also intermarried with the ancestors of other founding families who settled there  -  Vandeheys, Vanderzandens, Meeuwsens and Herinckxes  -  creating a concentration of Dutch community in the area.<br />
For the Van Dykes, this countywide genealogical phenomenon started with one man  -  Theodore Van Dyke.<br />
Born in 1847 in Reek, Holland, Theodore spent his boyhood in an almost-completely Catholic community. Mostly farmers, the Dutch immigrants followed the Irish, after the blight that caused the potato famine in Ireland spread across the English Chanel and Irish Sea to crops in Holland.<br />
Theodore's mother died when he was 9; his father died three years later. All of the orphaned Van Dyke children, except one, decided to take the long journey to America. Theodore was almost 19 years old when they left.<br />
When they arrived, they joined other families from their homeland in Wisconsin. It was there that Theodore met and married Mary Bernards, and together they traveled to Oregon in 1880, following rumors of temperate weather and ample farmlands. They bought acreage in Verboort.<br />
It was there that Theodore and Mary's children were born. Theodore and his oldest sons planted giant Sequoia trees near the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church in Verboort. The cones were gleaned from a trip to Northern California. Those trees today reach higher than 150 feet.<br />
Theodore's family was also the first in the area to own a car -  a 1911 Buick. Son Henry Van Dyke established a successful seed-cleaning business in Verboort. Son Walter married Margaret Joosten and worked as a farmer and ran a dairy. For many years he directed the Visitation choir and his eldest son, Joseph, served for several years as county commissioner. Son William married Alagonda Evers. She was known as ""Auntie Allie"" and for her beautiful flower arrangements for the church and singing voice.<br />
Said a book marking the Verboort Quadricentennial: ""Each weekend, as she lovingly arranged the beautiful bouquets -  with flowers, more often than not, from her own garden -  she would burst forth in joyous song, and the church would resound with the lovely sacred melodies. Sometimes the pastor, overhearing, would steal in from outside, unnoticed, just to listen and enjoy.""<br />
Other members of the family were brothers Theodore and Henry, sisters Anna, Mary Ann, Theodora and Petronella, as well as two children who died at birth and two who died as infants.<br />
Edward's grandfather, Joseph, was born to John Van Dyke, husband of Constance Hermens. John was a farmer, brick-maker and carpenter. He taught Joseph and two other sons (out of a family of 11) carpentry skills and many of the homes they built still stand in Washington County.In a personal account of his life, Joseph noted some of the houses he built with his brothers and dad: Among them were homes for Elmer Verboort, Art Verboort, Clem Vanderzanden, and Mickie and Franklin McCoy. Joseph's dad helped him build his own house where he would live with his wife, Marjorie Porter.<br />
Marjorie and Joseph dated at Verboort High, but had known of each other all through grade school.<br />
""When I was 16 and Joe 18, we became steadies,"" Marjorie wrote in a collection of stories about her family. Their first date was to a Hillsboro theater, where they saw a silent comedy starring Buster Keaton. She remembered Joe laughing ""outrageously loud,"" and being a little embarrassed. Nevertheless, the couple married in 1931 at Visitation church, a ceremony officiated by Father Hugh McDevitt.<br />
Joseph remembered the birth of his first child, Pat, in 1931. His memoirs include stories about his children growing up, including one of Pat as a baby.<br />
""[She] was a pretty baby and was walking at 8 months. Sometimes she would crawl under the table and then stand up and walk around under there, and then bump her head when she tried to come out from under,"" he wrote.<br />
The matriarch of the family, Mary, died in 1922, due to complications of influenza. When patriarch Theodore died in 1934, he left behind 54 grandchildren and 34 great-grandchildren.<br />
Another Van Dyke legacy: Margaret Van Dyke, known to most as Maggie, suggested a sausage and sauerkraut dinner for the annual parish meal in 1938.  Regarding that first parish dinner, the Verboort Centennial said, ""the community served 150 dinners, 198 pounds of sausage and 10 gallons of kraut, and it was not enough.""<br />
Joseph was instrumental in helping rebuild Visitation church after it burned down in 1941. The parish couldn't rebuild immediately because resources were scarce in wartime, but Joseph spent 22 years on the parish committee, which eventually oversaw the rebuilding of the church.<br />
In reflecting on his life (when he penned his memoirs in 1982), Joseph wrote: ""As I look back over my 72 years to when we used coal oil lamps and lanterns for light, wood for cooking and heating the house, horses for farming and traveling; the country roads were just dirt, the main street of Forest Grove was planked with boards…We used slates and slate pencils to write with when I started school … Although we had none of the modern conveniences of today, people were more content then than they are now.""<br />

<br />
Where are you from, and what parishes have been important in your life?<br />
I am from the Fox Valley area -- I began my life in Combined Locks and my family moved to Little Chute when I was young. Since then, Little Chute has been considered my hometown. I was baptized at St. Paul Parish in Combined Locks and received first Communion, first Reconciliation, and Confirmation at St. John Nepomucene Parish in Little Chute. Both of these parishes have influenced me greatly in my faith. In the summer of 2006, before I entered seminary, I lived at the rectory at SS. Peter and Paul Parish and quickly felt like part of the community. In the summer of 2008, I lived in community at the rectory of St. Pius X Parish in Appleton as a staff member for Catholic Youth Expeditions and was also welcomed immensely there.<br />
<br />
What are five words or phrases that would best describe you?<br />
Catholic, Honest, Approachable, Fun, Good-listener.<br />
<br />
Who was important in helping you hear the call to the priesthood?<br />
The seed definitely started with my parents and grew through many strong influences in my early life, primarily Monsignor Jim VandenHogen from Little Chute, Fr. Bob Vandenberg from Combined Locks, Fr. Marty Carr from Oshkosh, and Frs. Bob Kollath and Mark Niehaus from the Newman Centers in Oshkosh and Milwaukee, respectively. The flower blossomed when our vocation director, Fr. Tom Long, came to visit me in Milwaukee from Green Bay twice while I was going to school there in early 2006, and I felt that he saw something in me that I did not see in myself. It was during that time when I learned to sit and pray about my vocation and soon discovered that indeed the Lord was calling me to something greater -- seminary!<br />
<br />
What is the best part of seminary life?<br />
Being at Mundelein, the most diverse seminary in the world in so many ways, I have had many opportunities to grow in my love for Christ. This includes understanding Catholic social justice through my brother seminarians, who have lived in many parts of the world, and in a mission trip to Nigeria. Both have helped me better realize the Church as the One Body in Christ, truly made in God's image and likeness, and how to rest upon the faith not in the material but in the spiritual. I discovered that joy comes from simplicity of heart. I also find diversity in the variety of activities at the seminary that allow for growth in mind, body, and soul: Prayer, Leadership opportunities, Academics, Apostolic work, Athletics and Recreation, and Healthy Relationships.<br />
<br />
What is your favorite Scripture verse?<br />
I always seek to grow in the virtue of humility through acknowledging, accepting and embracing both my strengths and weaknesses, so I quote St. Paul to the Corinthians: ""Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong."" (2 Corinthians 12:10)"
"I155063","VanDynHoven","William"," ","Abt 1981","","13 Aug 2002","Manitowoc Herald Times Reporter","MANITOWOC - The Rev. William Van Dynhoven thought some of being a priest when he was a high school student in Little Chute, the community in which he grew up, but he didn't give it serious consideration until he was in college.<br />
<br />
Instead, the 1999 Little Chute graduate attended the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley for two and a half years and then transferred to UW-Oshkosh where he earned a bachelor's degree in geography in 2004.<br />
<br />
During his time at Oshkosh, he became involved in college ministry, and a friend got him to take his faith more seriously. But even then he was focused more on the social justice part of his faith and less on the spiritual aspect.<br />
<br />
After graduation, he worked for a year and then attended UW-Milwaukee for a year with the thought of pursuing a career in meteorology.<br />
<br />
But then he developed more of a prayer life and started to seek God's will.<br />
<br />
""Once I started following that track, it was so much easier to discern ... where that true calling was for me,"" he said.<br />
<br />
By the fall of 2006, he was enrolled at Mundelein Seminary in a suburb of Chicago where he spent six years. Just this spring, Van Dynhoven earned his Master of Divinity degree, and he was ordained to the priesthood on June 2.<br />
<br />
On July 3, Van Dynhoven, 31, began his new role as associate pastor at St. Francis of Assisi Parish. It wasn't his first experience in Manitowoc. Last summer, he served as a deacon for the parish, and he resumed that ministry on several weekends during the late winter and spring.<br />
<br />
As an associate pastor, Van Dynhoven is involved in the same types of ministry as the other associate pastor and the senior pastor, including celebrating Mass, presiding at weddings and funerals, hearing confessions, and anointing the sick. He also will be ""heavily involved"" in the parish youth groups, he said.<br />
<br />
""I love being in Manitowoc,"" he said. ""It's just been very warm and welcoming and supportive.""<br />
<br />
Van Dynhoven said he loves celebrating the sacraments and finds no greater joy than bringing Jesus to others through the Eucharist.<br />
<br />
St. Francis of Assisi offers many ministries for him to be involved with, but sometimes the most important is the ""ministry of presence"" -  simply being there for people, he said.<br />

APPLETON - If ""Celebrating our Volunteers"" mimicked the Oscars, Dr. Francis Van Lieshout would have been a shoo-in for the lifetime achievement award.<br />
The Health Care Volunteer Award he receives Tuesday touches just one side of his lifelong volunteer resume.<br />
""If you have time, treasure and talent, you have to share that,"" he said. ""There are people in need who have to be helped.""<br />
Van Lieshout, 83, a retired Little Chute physician, is often called ""Dr. Van"" or simply ""Doc."" He worked pro bono when he knew someone didn't have money and was quick to jump in anywhere he saw a need. He was so appreciated by his community that a park was named in his honor in 1999.<br />
His volunteer activities kept him serving the Fox Cities area before and after his retirement more than a decade ago.<br />
He has sorted items at St. Vincent de Paul, for example, since 1998 and has been ""the epitome of a loyal, dedicated, selfless volunteer,"" said volunteer coordinator Sister Jean Peerenboom, who nominated him.<br />
""He doesn't think he deserves the award, but we know different,"" she said.<br />
Van Lieshout graduated from Marquette University's School of Medicine in 1955. About five years later, he was diagnosed with cancer and had a colostomy. He counts what happened next as his most profound gift to others.<br />
""My biggest contribution is the establishment of the colostomy group,"" he said. ""There was a great need for education and support. Most people didn't want to talk about colostomy or cancer of the bowel. It was just such a terrifying thing.""<br />
He and a nurse at Appleton's St. Elizabeth Hospital started the group in 1965, when support groups were a radical idea. The group still meets monthly.<br />
""To my knowledge, we were the first group of this nature,"" Van Lieshout said. ""I had several people who told me they were contemplating suicide. They said, 'If you wouldn't have talked to me, I don't think I could have made it.'""<br />
In 1998, Van Lieshout approached St. Vincent's about starting a small in-house clinic for the poor. Its leaders were skittish about the concept and instead invited him to stay as a volunteer. He did, and in 2010 alone logged more than 400 hours.<br />
Each ""Celebrating our Volunteers"" honoree designates a charity to receive $5,000. As a passionate pro-life advocate, Van Lieshout chose Mother & Unborn Baby Care in Appleton, a nonprofit group that helps young women who choose to give birth rather than abort. They provide clothing, diapers, formula, child care and advice on finances and school.<br />
""He's a wonderful person with a big heart,"" said M.J. Clements, the group's executive director. ""He definitely deserves this award because he does so much for the community and for everyone.""<br />

"I29157","VanSusteren","Greta","Coale","Abt 1954","","6 Sep 2016","USA Today","Greta Van Susteren has left Fox News.<br />
The longtime host of the nightly news show ""On the Record,"" Van Susteren is an Appleton native and Xavier High School graduate. She's been with the network since 2002.<br />
No reason for Van Susteren's departure were given from the network. Politico reported that a financial disagreement led to her leaving, a person close to the situation told the news site.<br />
Late Tuesday morning, Van Susteren addressed her departure on Facebook.<br />
Yes, I have left the Fox News Channel.<br />
On Thursday night, I made my decision and informed Fox News of my decision that I was leaving Fox News Channel per my contract.<br />
Fox has not felt like home to me for a few years and I took advantage of the clause in my contract which allows me to leave now. The clause had a time limitation, meaning I could not wait.<br />
She added that she plans to continue working in broadcasting.<br />
In July, Van Susteren told The Daily Beast that she had a ""long-term deal,"" but should she ever lose her Fox show she would be interested in re-entering the legal field or teaching at Georgetown University, where she earned master's and doctorate degrees in law.<br />
She will be immediately replaced as host of ""On the Record"" by senior political analyst Brit Hume, the network said.<br />
""We are grateful for Greta's many contributions over the years and wish her continued success,"" said Fox Network co-presidents Jack Abernethy and Bill Shine in a joint statement.<br />
Van Susteren's departure comes on the same day that Fox News Channel's parent company Twenty-First Century Fox, reportedly agreed to pay $20 million to former Fox anchor Gretchen Carlson to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit she filed against former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes.<br />
Her departure ""had nothing to do with the settlement today,"" a network spokesman told USA TODAY.<br />
Van Susteren joined Fox in 2002 after more than a decade as a legal analyst at CNN. She gained notoriety for her analysis of the O.J. Simpson trial.<br />
Roger Yu and Mike Snider of USA TODAY contributed to this report"
"I29157","VanSusteren","Greta","Coale","Abt 1954","","23 Dec 2017","APC","On Thursday I wrote a column that touched on a couple of items from Post-Crescent history, one of them being a letter to the editor that a then 8-year-old Greta Van Susteren wrote in 1962.<br />
The letter, handwritten on Raggedy Ann stationary, took the newspaper to task for a headline that suggested parents should be happy that a new school year was drawing near. ""I (am) in 3rd grade and I don't like school at all,"" she wrote.<br />
The editor at the time, John Torinus, responded with a published Dear Greta letter that encouraged her to embrace the good things in the world and a love of learning would follow.<br />
On Friday, the now 63-year-old Van Susteren, the longtime cable news anchor and commentator on all things politics and law, responded. She said a reply to Torinus' letter was 55 years overdue.<br />
So she wrote this letter:<br />
<br />
December 22, 2017<br />
Dear Editor of The Post-Crescent,<br />
I wrote a letter to the editor of The Post-Crescent back in August of 1962 and the editor-in-chief responded in a published letter dated August 15, 1962. At the time of his published reply, I did not respond. You have today  -  in the year 2017 and 55 plus years later  -  republished that communication between us. It is now my turn to reply to his reply ... and yes, 55 years later.<br />
While I still don't like that 1962 headline that provoked my very stern letter to him on my Raggedy Ann stationary ( I am still a stubborn kid), Editor John Torinus was right and his sweet and thoughtful published reply to me gave me wisdom that I used growing up and still use. I have read my letter to the editor and his reply many times over the last 55 years. It was also very kind of Mr. Torinus to reply to a kid. It made a difference.<br />
Mr. Torinus wrote, among other things, ""if you keep on loving life you will see all the good things as well as the bad. And pretty soon you will come to love school too.""<br />
I have learned to look for the good as he suggested and, well ... yes, I learned to love school (of course minus those few detention  -  D-note  -  issues at Xavier that I had to deal with.)<br />
A regret? I regret I never thanked Editor Torinus.<br />
Best, Greta<br />
PS: I miss Appleton, I miss reading The Post-Crescent, I miss editors who respond to kids, and I also wish I still had Raggedy Ann doll stationary.<br />
<br />
Van Susteren, who lives in Washington, D.C., said she saw the column because she still reads The Post-Crescent every day online and didn't want to miss the opportunity to write a response all these years later.<br />
We chatted by phone about the connection she still has with her hometown newspaper despite the many miles and years apart, her fondness for Appleton (she asked if Cleo's is still in business; I assured her it is) and how she still makes it back for Xavier High School reunions whenever possible.<br />
Van Susteren, whose work over the past 25 years has included high-profile talk show gigs with CNN, Fox News and, briefly, MSNBC, said she's loving her volunteer work with Voice of America, a U.S. government-funded broadcast gig that has her reporting from spots all around the globe, from Iran and Afghanistan to Bangladesh and Haiti and points between.<br />
""I've really wanted to focus on foreign news for a long time,"" she said. ""I may have finally found my perfect job.""<br />
She also recently authored a newly released book on social media habits, ""Everything You Need to Know about Social Media: Without Having to Call a Kid.""<br />
And in November, she launched a new app called Sorry that allows users to accept or reject apologies, including those from public figures.<br />
""I live in Washington where apologies are really needed,"" she said. ""It's a full-time business here, apologizing, or it should be.""<br />
And, she said, yes, she grew to love school, despite what she thought when she penned that letter to the editor 55 years ago.<br />
Ed Berthiaume is news director of The Post-Crescent.<br />
The 1962 letter and the editor's reply<br />
<br />
The 1962 letter to the editor from 8-year-old Greta Van Susteren was in response to a story with a headline that read ""Here's Happy News for Parents: School Resumes in About 23 Days."" Below is the Greta letter and the published (Aug. 15, 1962) response from Post-Crescent Editor John Torinus in its entirety:<br />
Dear Editor: I didn't at all like what you wrote about Here's Happy News for Parents etc. I (am) in 3rd grade and I don't like school at all. How would you like it if I wrote that and you were still in school. I am 8. Greta Van Susteren<br />
Here's the reply, headlined Letter From Greta:<br />
The letter tickled the editor's fancy. We suspect that Greta was trying to put us on the spot with an important segment of our readers. We even suspect the idea for the letter may have been put in her head by someone more adult. But it's the kind of a letter that deserves an answer and besides it gives us a chance to pilfer an idea from a letter by a girl named Virginia which earned another editor undying fame.<br />
Dear Greta: It's been a long time since we were in 3rd grade. We really don't know how we would feel if you had written this to us way back then.<br />
One of the worst things about living is growing up. Being eight years old is wonderful. You really don't want to be anything else at that age. When you get to be a teenager you'll want to be 20. When you get to be 20 you'll want to be 30. The happiest thing is not wanting to be anything but what you are.<br />
When you get to be 40 and 50 this is all changed. Then you wish you were in your 20s or in your teens or even eight years old. By then you have learned many things. And sometimes it seems like the more you learn everything isn't as beautiful as it was before.<br />
You learn that there are people in the world who steal and cheat. You learn that many people in the world do not have enough to eat and that little children die because they haven't anyone to take care of them. You learn that some men want power so badly that they don't care how many other people die. You learn that there are people who do not believe in God.<br />
All this can make you sad. And even older people sometimes get to thinking that they don't want to learn any more.<br />
Maybe the reason you don't like school is that you think if you study hard and get good marks in 3rd grade then you'll be promoted to 4th grade and then 5th grade and pretty soon you'll be in high school and then college and all the time you'll just have to work a lot harder. And maybe your parents keep telling you that if you don't get good grades you won't be able to go to college. And right now you don't care.<br />
But because editors are older than you I hope you'll believe this one thing. Regardless of all the bad things in the world today there are a lot of good things too. Working hard is really fun when you get used to it. And playing becomes more fun when you work hard. And when a family works hard together and plays together that is one of the nice things. And there's a lot of beauty in the world and when you study and learn more about it it is more beautiful. Like nature, and music, and reading and painting.<br />
When you say you don't like school you really mean that you love the nicer things in life more. And if you keep on loving life you will see all the good things as well as the bad. And pretty soon you will come to love school too. That's what makes life so hard to understand.<br />
And don't forget that if you do study hard and learn someday you might even be a teacher or married and have children and then you can tell them to work very hard in school.<br />

Greenwood is a student pilot at the present time, while Van Zeeland holds a private pilot's license since September, 1942. Both Greenwood and Van Zeeland now fly out of the Appleton airport.  Greenwood believes the citizens and city fathers of Kaukauna should look forward to a postwar project that would give the city an airfield of two ordinary landing strips of about 2500 feet long. Van Zeeland hardly agrees with George on starting out with a small field to keep costs down.   Van Zeeland says anyone can learn how to fly and that in the future air travel will be commonplace."

Russ, Myra Dercks take trip of lifetime to ancestral homeland<br />
<br />
By Jim Pinkham<br />
For the Times-Villager<br />
For Russ and Myra Dercks, the trip of a lifetime began with an e-mail last spring from Myra's second cousin and his wife in Ottawa, the Canadian capital.<br />
They said: ""We're going to Holland in the fall. We'd like to have you come with us. Are you interested?' "" Myra recalls.<br />
At first, this Little Chute couple in their 70s, placidly wintering in Florida when the e-mail arrived, thought they weren't.<br />
Eventually, though, the lure was too strong. Myra, one of 14 children, has a fervent interest in her family's roots, but it's one that came late in life. She began to wonder what made her grandfather, Henry Van Zeeland, who already had six children at the time, pull up stakes from his home in Gemert, the Netherlands, and head to America to become the patriarch of the Wisconsin Van Zeelands.<br />
""By the time I got interested, there was nobody left to ask,"" Myra explains ruefully.<br />
Mary Kalupa, of Kaukauna, another Van Zeeland by birth, helped Myra start on the quest half a dozen years ago by sharing the information she had acquired on the family tree.<br />
Van Zeeland 'every which way'<br />
About the same time, a month after Myra first ventured onto the Internet, she found a second cousin, John Van Zeeland, who lived in Ottawa. It turned out that Myra and John's grandfathers were brothers and that John himself had lived in Gemert until 1960, when at age 26, he emigrated to Canada.<br />
It was a connection born of persistence: ""I just kept typing on the Internet 'Van Zeeland' every which way to find somebody that could tell me about Gemert,"" Myra recalls.<br />
Myra stumbled upon the resume of John's daughter, then looking for work, and explained she had no job to offer but would appreciate some help with the quest. The reply came back immediately that John had been looking for the Wisconsin Van Zeelands.<br />
It wasn't long before John and his wife, Diane, came to Little Chute for a week to visit.<br />
 ""We hit it off right away,"" says Myra. ""It was just like, well, having family.""<br />
In fact, an impromptu family reunion ensued during the visit when the Derckses took the Van Zeelands to dinner at Jacks or Better and 40 relatives showed up to greet with them with just a brief word-of-mouth notice in advance.<br />
Connections old and new<br />
The friendship has continued over the years. John gave Myra a genealogical treasure trove -   a copy, mostly translated into English, of a family book that traces the Van Zeelands through 11 generations and back into the 1400s.<br />
For John, who has three sisters still living in Gemert, the odyssey there was a chance to renew old ties. And it was natural to invite the Derckses, who had never been, to accompany them.<br />
The adventure began when Russ and Myra loaded up the car Sept. 16 and drove to Ottawa. After a few days of visiting and final preparations, the two couples drove to Montreal on Sept. 20 and caught a flight to Brussels, where they toured the next day before heading to Gemert on Sept. 22.<br />
The next two weeks, until their Oct. 4 departure, wove a rich tapestry of memories -   including a chance for Russ, with some advance logistical help from Times-Villager correspondent Jeroen Ketelaars, to locate and visit the tiny Dutch enclave of Zyfflich, just over the German border. There they found the place where Russ' grandfather had lived before coming to Little Chute with Father Vandenbroek.<br />
Transoceanic saloonkeeper<br />
Leafing through Myra's scrapbook of the trip awakens dozens of scenes she'll never forget. The base of operations was Gemert, the village of Grandfather Van Zeeland. There they saw the church where Myra's grandparents had married, and the site where Henry had kept saloon in the city square. It proved to be a transoceanic occupation: He plied the same trade in Kimberly, and the first seven of Myra's 13 siblings were born in the boardinghouse above his saloon in the Van Zeeland Building.<br />
In Gemert, three third cousins came calling, including Ad Otten, the city archivist, whom Myra met online two years ago, during one of her online forays. While in town, ""Any information that I wanted, he got for me,"" Myra says, gratefully.<br />
The cousins presented Myra with a new Dutch copy of the family book tracing the Van Zeeland lineage, which Ad Otten and Adrianus Van Zeeland had co-authored.<br />
A mysterious paternal portrait<br />
One afternoon Otten took the couples on a walking tour of Gemert, where they passed a home continuously inhabited by Van Zeelands for more than 400 years -   and where later they would experience the most mysterious moment of their trip. The current occupant, Adrian Van Zeeland, heard his North American relatives were in town and called imploring them to visit. And so they stopped by on their last morning in Gemert.<br />
""He had my father's picture and he knew all about my father,"" Myra recalls, a remarkable fact given that her father had never been to Holland, but the picture had her father's handwriting on the back, and she estimates that since her father was just a lad in the photo it had to be at least 120 years old.<br />
To this day, however, Myra doesn't know how Adrian came by the picture or knew of her father. A cancer survivor, Adrian had a house call from his doctor while his guests were there, and they had to leave before he could supply answers.<br />
Other images endure, too, including the visit to Maria Magdalena Chapel, a church that a Van Zeeland ancestor built and funded in perpetuity. The day trip to Amsterdam, where they saw the Anne Frank House, sailed the canals, stumbled twice through the outskirts of the infamous Red Light District, and returned for a midnight enactment of what had become a ritual nightcap at the home of their hosts, Harry and Gerta Donkers.<br />
Barbecue bash and 80th birthday<br />
Their hosts created many memorable moments. Harry's first wife was John Van Zeeland's deceased older sister, but despite the seemingly slender connection, the hospitality was rich. The two families had only planned to spend a week at the Donkers, but shortly into the visit their hosts said moving would be too much hassle and invited them to stay for the duration.<br />
The Donkers threw a big Van Zeeland family barbecue bash their first Saturday in town. Harry's seven kids were on hand, as were John Van Zeeland's three sisters, and a plethora of children and grandchildren. Special family times also included a Sunday Mass, arranged by John's sister, Annie, for their mother and later a party to celebrate Annie turning 80.<br />
Throughout the trip, there were calls and drop-ins and parties as word of the visitors got out. The evening of Annie's birthday also boasted a visit to Leo Van Zeeland, another cousin that Myra tracked down about a year ago during her online trekking. (All the cousins traced their forebears back to Henry Van Zeeland and his brothers, but the ongoing genealogical research has reconnected some branches of the family that had lost touch with each other.)<br />
Their last Sunday in town, Oct. 2, was the annual Schut Sunday, which derives from a much ballyhooed and time-encrusted shooting competition that participants enjoy by invitation only. The person firing the last, decisive shot in the competition becomes king of the Schut for the next year and his wife, the queen. Harry and Gerta, king and queen for the second time, led a march to the chapel, some special rituals during the Mass, a flag ceremony, a coffee, and a march through town.<br />
Two days later, after leaving the ancestral homestead of Adrian Van Zeeland and its mysteries, the couples headed back to Brussels, where they spent the night at the villa of Jan Werts, now a prominent European correspondent for a variety of publications, but also a boyhood friend of John Van Zeeland from Gemert. The next day it was back to Montreal, and thence to Ottawa. From there, Russ and Myra drove to Niagara Falls and onward to Holland, Mich., where they took the car ferry home across the lake, and arrived back in Little Chute Oct. 10.<br />
Hospitality most memorable<br />
There are many things the Dercks will remember about this trip: the Dutch passion for fresh air with windows always open at night, bicycles so plentiful that parking garages are built just for them, brick omnipresent as a construction material (wood is a scarce, regulated commodity among the environmentally conscious Dutch), even the smallest backyards landscaped, hedges within hedges of varied colors, the remarkable absence of clutter, the Gemert city song, written by a priest, that tolls out every hour from municipal buildings.<br />
Most of all, though, they'll remember the hospitality, from their friends and relatives, and especially the home so graciously opened by Harry and Gerta Donkers.<br />
""I just couldn't believe how wonderful they were to us,"" says Myra. ""They just treated you like long-lost friends. Family is very important to them. … Everybody just greeted us like we were the Lost Dauphin almost, and we didn't expect that.""<br />
Would they make the trip again? No, not at their age, but Myra's relatives from Gemert plan to come to the States, and the Derckses are looking forward to it.<br />
""We expect we're going to get a lot of company now, and we would enjoy that,"" she says."

When she retired from teaching and home care responsibilities in 1993, S. Catherine came to live at Siena Center, motherhouse of the Racine Dominicans. ""She immediately became involved as a volunteer,"" noted Gloria Brown, director of the Senior Companion Program. ""She is so conscientious -     a wonderful role model for younger people who may think they're too old to volunteer anymore.""<br />
Every week S. Catherine visits people in the Senior Companion Program wherever they live -     homes, apartments, assisted living or nursing home facilities. For many of them, she is the only person who takes time to talk with them. As one of her Seniors said, ""She is one of the few contacts I have. She is someone who will listen and someone to talk to; I'm not so lonely anymore.""<br />
S. Catherine feels the greatest impact she has as a volunteer is ""to be a friend and listener,"" giving her full attention to those she visits. And of course, she continually prays for them as well.<br />
In one case, S. Catherine is the connector for three elderly family members, all of whom are disabled. They live in separate facilities and cannot keep in touch with one another directly. S. Catherine visits each regularly and passes news back and forth among the siblings."

BY SHARON HANUSZCZAK-FROBERG. POST-CRESCENT EAST<br />
KAUKAUNA —    Since Rebecca Verbeten enrolled in Kaukauna High School's civic engagement course this fall, she can't seem to get her class assignment off her mind.<br />
But it's not fear of earning a poor grade that has the senior thinking around the clock about raising funds for improvements to Veterans Memorial Park in Kaukauna. Verbeten is determined to bring the project to fruition to honor the brave men and women who have served their country.<br />
""I'll lay in bed at night while I'm trying to sleep and I'll be like I have to do this, I have to call this person,"" said Verbeten, whose grandfather served in the Korean War. ""It really does take over your life a lot because you can't stop thinking about it. This is something that we really need.""<br />
Verbeten is one of six high school students who have signed on to tackle the project's second phase —    raising $30,000 for the city of Kaukauna to begin work on additional improvements to the park on State 55 and Catherine Street.<br />
The park project originated last school year with students Alexis Lindem and Andrea Meulemans, who developed a design plan that was approved by the city council. The two girls are now in college.<br />
Students this school year are working with members of Kaukauna's Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion on a marketing plan to educate the community about the project, which involves building a paved memorial to honor Fox Valley veterans.<br />
The Ring of Honor will be made of engraved bricks purchased by the families and friends of soldiers who have served in the armed forces.<br />
The project —    which is estimated to cost $67,000 —    also will include a water fountain, landscaping upgrades and lighting, installation of a permanent sound system.<br />
The students expect to sell about 750 bricks for the functional memorial, which will serve as the site for Memorial Day events, Veterans Day observances and other VFW and American Legion activities.<br />
""I think we've got a pretty good idea,"" said social studies teacher Tim Roehrig. ""We've got a lot of bricks to sell, of course. The city wants the first $30,000 raised before we start moving dirt. I think with the help of the VFW, it's going to happen. The city has been in full support of it. Our hope is by spring, we're going to see dirt being moved.""<br />
Roehrig said the challenge for students is figuring out a way to market the project.<br />
Verbeten said the group plans to launch a Web site (www.kaukaunamemorialpark.com) to help spread the word. The site will include a link to an order form for those interested in purchasing bricks, which will be sold in three sizes ranging from $50 to $150.<br />
Depending on size, the clay pavers can be engraved to include veterans' names, military branch and rank, time served and personal messages. Individuals who who don't have a relative who served in the armed forces can ""Adopt A Veteran"" as a show of support.<br />
Students also are contacting local businesses to display flyers about the project.<br />
Trevor Huss, a senior, admitted he and his teammates felt a bit overwhelmed when they first took over the project this fall.<br />
""At first, it was like we didn't even know where to start. Now we're getting there,"" he said. ""We're doing this because we want to. We appreciate everything veterans have done for their country.""<br />
Added senior Max Jakel: ""It's just something to do to pay (veterans) back and just thank them.""<br />
Junior John Stumpf said the project requires 100 percent commitment from every student involved.<br />
""It's almost like a job-type thing,"" he said. ""There's no slacking off here.""<br />
Senior Erin Stevens said the class is a great learning experience.<br />
""My older brother took the class last year and he really spoke highly of it, so that was one of the reasons why I took it,"" she said. ""It gives us more responsibility.""<br />
Additional Facts - How to help<br />
Engraved bricks honoring American veterans are available for purchase as part of The Ring of Honor at Veterans Memorial Park in Kaukauna.

Grand Chute Boy Scout Nicholas Verhagen among youth who made a difference<br />
<br />
GRAND CHUTE —   Cynthia Verhagen could barely contain her pride when her son received an award for aiding a woman who fell in her home.<br />
Advertisement<br />
<br />
Nicholas Verhagen, a 13-year-old Boy Scout, said he'll never forget the last few months, though he still fails to understand all the fuss.<br />
<br />
""It was just the right thing to do,"" he said. ""People should help out whenever they have the opportunity. I don't think it was out of the ordinary.""<br />
<br />
Nicholas' efforts typified stories that put young people from the Fox Cities in a positive spotlight during 2008.<br />
<br />
Verhagen received a taste of celebrity after circumstances gave him an opportunity to exercise the Scout promise of duty to others.<br />
<br />
Verhagen was selling wreaths Sept. 21 on Bluemound Drive for the annual scout fundraiser.<br />
<br />
At one home, he heard a cry for help though an open window and looked in to see a woman on the floor. He called for emergency aid, but his duty didn't end there.<br />
<br />
Responders promptly arrived and cut a screen in front of an open window. Then they called on Verhagen, due to his small stature. They pushed him through the window and he opened the locked door.<br />
<br />
The woman was taken to a hospital, but soon returned to her home.<br />
<br />
A Post-Crescent story about the incident led to calls from TV and radio stations. The family received also inquiries from ""CBS Evening News"" and the syndicated ""Bonnie Hunt Show.""<br />
<br />
Verhagen received a letter of congratulations from the Boy Scouts and was featured in the state's Boy Scout magazine.<br />
<br />
The attention has slowed down, Cynthia Verhagen said, though people still recognize her son from time to time, and call him a hero.<br />
<br />

Gay was born July 21, 1913, and spent her 100th birthday with family and friends on Sunday at Bay Beach Amusement Park in Green Bay.<br />
Although she didn't spend any time on the popular Zippin Pippin wooden roller coaster at Bay Beach, Gay created more memories to carry with her through another year.<br />
""It takes a lot of courage to go on those rides!"" Gay said at her home Monday. ""We had more fun (Sunday) that I'll never forget it.""<br />
Gay has five children, 13 grandchildren and 23 great grandchildren.<br />
A typically busy summer day for Bay Beach included about 60 of Gay's family members and friends at one of the park shelters.<br />
""It was just really nice, and everything turned out really well,"" said Donna Van Egeren, a daughter of Rachel. ""She was so excited to see all of the people she hasn't seen in a while.""<br />
Pat Van Egeren, one of Gay's grandchildren, was instrumental in the party planning and creating a time to remember.<br />
""This is a different party than what we have done in the past when we would normally gather at the farmhouse,"" Pat said. ""With it being a special birthday, I thought this would be a way to make it a special day and honor her and celebrate her 100 years.""<br />
On top of a hill on De Pere's far west side sits the farmhouse that was built 98 years ago.<br />
""She has been in this home since she was 2 years old,"" said Robert Gay, youngest of Rachel's five children.<br />
A small wooden plaque hangs on the back porch with the words ""Verheyen Estate."" Verheyen is Rachel's maiden name.<br />
Her parents, Henry and Mary Verheyen, built the farmhouse.<br />
""This home is going to be a landmark,"" Rachel said proudly.<br />
Gay's longevity of a century could be attributed to a handful of things, such as still being able to live in her home. Yet, she and family members unanimously agreed her sense of humor and frank personality has kept her going all of these years.<br />
""I am just a crazy old lady,"" Gay said with a laugh. ""I'm crazy, and that's how to live life. I'm a fun lady, and I love making people laugh. They just don't make them like me anymore!""<br />
""She is a very strong-willed lady that grew up in hard times and raised a big family and instilled a lot of that strength and good working habits with the rest of the family,"" Pat Van Egeren said.<br />
""And, she has a great sense of humor, and she doesn't beat around the bush. My grandma will tell you how things are,"" a laughing Van Egeren added.<br />
Gay is cared for at the house by two of her children - Robert Gay and Donna Van Egeren - along with a caretaker, Dee Stevens, who, according to Donna, is an angel in her mother's life.<br />
When asked what she does now to keep herself busy, Gay kept it very simple.<br />
""I just live,"" she said.<br />
Gay is still healthy at her age and walks with a cane.<br />
""Her health is pretty good, and she walks around the house five times a day, so she gets good exercise and eats really well,"" Robert said.<br />
Rachel was married to Ray Gay for close to 60 years. Ray died in 1997 at the age of 85.<br />
They were farmers for about 40 years. Rachel also spent a number of years working downtown in a fabric store and also sewed wedding dresses.<br />
""She is a very strong lady, and we are totally blessed to still have her here,"" Donna Van Egeren said. ""She is the glue that keeps this family together.""<br />
Among the many gifts Gay received for the momentous occasion was a birthday note sent from The White House in Washington, D.C., with the signatures of President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama.<br />
True to form with her humor and personality, Gay joked that she would rather have had someone, even a stranger, wish her a happy birthday than receiving the presidential recognition.<br />
Those who know and love her wouldn't expect anything else."

Chippewa Indians of northern Wisconsin, meeting here in August to revive their pageant of Chippewa tribal history, will pay tribute to the late Father Chryostom Verwyst, Franciscan monk, whose 75 years of priesthood among the Indians made him dearly beloved by them. Although Father Verwyst was well known for his historical writings, probably one of his greatest contributions to the Indians is an Indian dictionary, said to be the largest and most complete dictionary in the world. Seven years were spent in its compilation and it was the hope of the author to have the book published by the government for Indians' education service. Lack of funds prevented that, however, and the work remains in its original pen and ink form. The epitaph of the deceased monk is written on the first page of the book in the Chippewa language.

Failure To Turn Off Heating Pad Results In Fatal Burns<br />
Manitowoc.  - (Special) - Failure to turn off the current of an electric heating pad before she went to sleep caused the fire which resulted fatally for Mrs. Dudley Cuthbert, 53-year-old cripple who was burned to death at her home, 1234 S. Sixteenth street, early Thursday afternoon, an investigation today revealed.

Her husband, also a cripple, was at work in a local factory and she was alone at home. The house was slightly damaged by flames and smoke. Mrs. Cuthbert before her marriage was Miss Theresa Vollendorf. She operated a millinery business here for a number of years.

Reality of fire loss gives Jesse Vosters new perspective<br />
<br />
A Kaukauna native fled his Chatsworth, Calif., home Monday with a change of clothes, a few keepsakes and one terrible realization as flames trailed behind his car.<br />
Advertisement<br />
<br />
""It really hit me,"" Jesse Vosters said. ""There's a good possibility that I'm going to lose everything that I own.""<br />
<br />
Vosters, 31, a 1996 graduate of Kaukauna High School, settled back into his home Wednesday after a close call with the wildfires that have scorched Southern California this week. Flames came within feet of Vosters' apartment building, though they were stopped by in-ground sprinklers surrounding the property. While his home has some water and smoke damage, he didn't sustain any major losses.<br />
<br />
Vosters moved from Kaukauna to California four years ago and, while fires are a regular occurrence, this week's blazes were the first to get near his home, he said.<br />
<br />
Mother Lori Vosters had her own fears for her son's well-being after he called Monday to let her know that the fires forced him out.<br />
<br />
""I thought, 'I wish I could go through the phone,'"" she said. ""It was very terrifying for me.""<br />
<br />
The fires, which started Sunday, spread rapidly in areas north of Los Angeles.<br />
<br />
The fire that threatened Vosters' home destroyed 13,285 acres and 15 homes, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Another six homes and 47 outbuildings were damaged.<br />
<br />
Vosters said the smoke was thick Monday, but he thought little of it based on past fires in the area.<br />
<br />
A neighbor warned him at about 11 a.m. that he should pack and go. Within a half-hour, flames accompanied the thick smoke. Vosters left while firefighters traveled in the opposite direction.<br />
<br />
The smoke looked like a thick fog leaving visibility at just a few feet. Flames formed 5-foot walls along both sides of the freeway, he said.<br />
<br />
Vosters initially returned home Tuesday, though had to spend another night away because of fire threats. He grabbed a few more belongings he regretted not bringing on his first departure.<br />
<br />
Wednesday provided a welcome sign. Blue skies replaced the smoke.<br />
<br />
Vosters figures he will have get some new clothes. Cleaning will take some time, though he knows it could have been far worse.<br />
<br />
""It's one of those moments that make you think twice and really appreciate all you have,"" he said.<br />

"I155905","Vosters","Theodore ""Ted"""," ","","","26 Feb 2015","AGRI-VIEW","Wisconsin's largest dairy started as a family farm<br />
PICKETT, Wisconsin -  The numbers are staggering. Starting with the end result, 15 tanker loads of milk leave Rosendale Dairy every day.<br />
That's 81,000 gallons daily, or nearly 30 million gallons annually, produced by about 7,800 cows. Milking occurs for 22 hours each day, with one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon for cleaning.<br />
But how do employees of the massive operation respond to people who say it's nothing more than a factory and the cows are mistreated?<br />
""I challenge anyone to visit the farm,"" said operations manager Bill Eberle. Looking at his watch, he said, ""It's 12:30 and I haven't had lunch yet; I'm sitting here in an interview. The cows eat a better diet and are better regimented than we are.""<br />
The girls, as the Holstein milkers are affectionately called, are quiet and content as they go about their daily business. When not being milked on one of two 80-cow carousels, they are free to roam in large areas of the freestall barn, with water and feed always available.<br />
The feed, custom mixed on-site, is removed each day, so it's always fresh. The barn is kept at a relatively constant 50-degree temperature year-round -  ideal for milking cattle.<br />
Conditions certainly seem to agree with the girls. With nearly 5,000 cattle in one barn -  there are two barns at Rosendale -  there's very little noise. The cattle are quiet and mill about slowly as they eat, drink and relax between milkings. The employees moving them to the milking parlor whistle or call out on rare occasions just to keep them moving when they stop to stare curiously at visitors in the barn.<br />
Rosendale hosts about 10,000 visitors each year.<br />
""These are contented cows,"" said Bill Harke, director of public affairs for Milk Source. ""If they aren't healthy and content, it doesn't help us at all.""<br />
Part of a larger operation<br />
While Rosendale is one of the largest dairy operations in Wisconsin, it is part of a larger company called Milk Source LLC. Run by three owners and hundreds of employees, Milk Source had its start in 1965 when <b>Ted and Dorothy Vosters</b> established a 30-cow dairy in Kaukauna, Wisconsin. They expanded to 80 cows and hired their first non-family employee in 1976. Tidy View expanded to 140 cows in 1978. In 1994, their son, John, and Jim Ostrom bought into the farm, which had a herd of 180.<br />
<br />
Within just three years, the herd was at 900, and Vosters and Ostrom bought the entire herd from Vosters' parents. In 1999 Todd Willer joined the partnership, and Milk Source was formed.<br />
<br />
Since then, the operation has grown by leaps and bounds. Omro Dairy was purchased in 1999, with 1,200 cows milked there by the end of the year. The herd expanded in 2000 and again in 2003. Tidy View grew to 6,800 cows.<br />
<br />
In 2007, Milk Source Genetics, a show-cow farm, opened with 50 cows in Kaukauna. Rosendale Dairy opened the following year.<br />
<br />
Phase II at Rosendale was completed in 2010, expanding the herd there to 8,600.<br />
<br />
In 2011, phase 1 of New Chester Dairy opened and a permit for phase 2 was approved by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Calf Source in Greenleaf, Wisconsin, was purchased.<br />
<br />
In 2012, New Chester completed phase 2 and expanded to 8,600 cows. Heifer Source was purchased in Liberal, Kansas.<br />
<br />
And in 2014, two new dairies opened in Michigan -  Hudson in June and Medina in November.<br />
Cows on the move<br />
Harke explained the girls give birth in maternity wards at their respective farms, and within a day or two, the calves are transported to Calf Source, where they are fed and nurtured until they are about 6 months old. A large part of the care involves building up the individual calf's immune system.<br />
<br />
At about 6 months, the calves are moved to Heifer Source in Kansas. The calf and heifer operations are Milk Source holdings as well.<br />
<br />
""The dry climate in Kansas is excellent for the young stock,"" Eberle said. ""That's their specialization there.""<br />
<br />
As the heifers approach 2 years of age, they are bred and shipped back to one of the Wisconsin operations to give birth and be put into the production system.<br />
<br />
""And the whole cycle starts again,"" Harke said.<br />
Secondary product<br />
While the primary product of any dairy farm is milk, a natural secondary product is natural fertilizer -  manure. Rosendale is surrounded by nearly 2,800 acres of farmland, which provides feed for the girls. The manure from the farm provides about 10 percent of the nutrients needed for that farmland.<br />
<br />
Harke said 7 miles of underground fertilizer-delivery pipeline removes 30,000 truck rolls annually from local roads. The $8 million on-site nutrient-management and wastewater system reclaims usable materials including sand, liquid and solid nutrients. Further reducing the farm's carbon footprint is the adjacent biodigester run by the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh Foundation, which uses Rosendale nutrients to create green energy.<br />
<br />
A handout of frequently asked questions states: ""Protecting the environment is critical to keeping our farmland productive as well as keeping our communities clean for future generations. Milk Source has extensive waste storage technologies and protocols to assure all manure is reused as fertilizer for crops in a responsible manner that does not allow nutrients to run into our waters. The farms all incorporate efficiencies such as energy-saving lights and sand recycling to keep our farms producing quality milk for generations to come.""<br />

Herbert Weber arrived home Monday to spend a 30-day furlough with his mother Mrs. Matt Weber, Taylor Street. He has been stationed in the European theater for the last 10 months with headquarters company 3/77 infantry, 95th division."
"I160578","Weber","Margaret ""Peggy""","Driessen","Abt 1958","","25 Sep 2014","Appleton Post Crescent","Peggy Driessen knows - in excruciatingly painful detail - why ALS is often referred to as ""the cruelest of all diseases.""<br />
She was diagnosed more than a decade ago with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. It is a progressive, degenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Driessen is fully mindful that the dreaded disease often leads to total paralysis and death within three to five years.<br />
But she's miraculously beaten the odds and fights on - hoping for a cure. ""We're a desperate breed,"" the 56-year-old woman said during an interview earlier this week at her Kaukauna-area home.<br />
Driessen will join a large group of family members and friends at Saturday's Walk to Defeat ALS at Memorial Park in Appleton. She is excited about the event, which comes on the heels of the Ice Bucket Challenge, a phenomenon that swept the nation and raised millions of dollars to fight ALS.<br />
The disease has taken a heavy toll on Dreissen's family. Two of her nine siblings - brother Jim Weber of Kaukauna and sister Cindy Esqueda of Minocqua - were diagnosed with ALS two years ago. Her father, Art Weber, died of the disease in 1999. And there's an underlying fear that ALS might touch the lives of the extended family members in the future.<br />
But the family isn't about to let ALS run - or ruin - their lives. They are fiercely loyal to each other and devoted to doing whatever they can to improve the quality of their lives.<br />
""We have always been positive and highly active,"" said Driessen, who was an independent insurance agent until ALS made it impossible for her to work. ""We rely on each other on good days and bad days. (ALS) is here and we have to live with it.""<br />
That family togetherness will be on display at Saturday's fundraising walk, which will be hosted by the ALS Association Wisconsin Chapter and chaired by the Weber family. The goal is to raise at least $150,000.<br />
<br />
Staying positive<br />
Jim Weber, who operates a financial planning business in Kaukauna, is in the early stages of the disease, but is feeling the effects in his muscles. He knows things will get considerably worse as time goes on. As the disease progresses, patients typically become ""trapped"" inside their bodies, unable to walk, talk or breathe. There is no effective treatment for ALS and no known cause.<br />
But Weber isn't about to sit still and let ALS run its destructive course without a battle. He and his wife, Kathy, have three children and five grandchildren, and Weber is hopeful that more funding could lead to more research and, eventually, a cure.<br />
<br />

<br />
""It makes you work a lot harder at it,"" he said. ""(ALS) is the last thing you think about when you go to bed and the first thing you think about when you wake up. It's really hard, but we have to stay positive for our kids.""<br />
Driessen describes her husband, Jerry, as ""an amazing caregiver"" and says she draws considerable support from her three grown children. With assistance from family members and friends, she has been instrumental in raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for ALS research and for programs to assist those who have been diagnosed with the disease.<br />
She is an outspoken advocate for ALS research and is often sought out by others who have been diagnosed with the disease for her advice on coping.<br />
""People sometimes ask me why I do all of these things, and I tell them it's because we're passionate about finding a cure,"" Driessen said.<br />
Melanie Roach-Bekos, executive director of the ALS Association Wisconsin Chapter, is effusive in her praise of Driessen.<br />
<br />

<br />
""Peggy is an inspiration,"" said Roach-Bekos. ""She is strong, she is smart and she is brave. There has never been a time when I have reached out and called her for help that she hasn't come through in some amazing way.""<br />
Roach-Bekos said Driessen ""is a mentor for so many people and she doesn't even realize it.""<br />
""She doesn't let (ALS) consume her with grief,"" Roach-Bekos said. ""She is doing everything she can to not let ALS define her or her future - or stop her from doing the things she loves to do.""<br />
Driessen still goes fishing with her husband. She can still walk short distances and spend time in the community with family members and friends. Before the disease began taking a toll on her body, she was an avid cross-county skier and hunter.<br />
She has defied the odds by surviving ALS since she was diagnosed with the disease at the age of 42.<br />
""There's not a lot of us who have been alive longer than 10 years,"" Driessen said. ""I've been in (ALS) support groups where I was the last one left.""<br />
<br />
A major boost<br />
Driessen, and a multitude of others who have been touched by ALS, say the Ice Bucket Challenge that swept the nation this past summer was a godsend in providing badly needed funding and raising awareness of the disease.<br />
The campaign has raised more than $100 million nationwide, and the Wisconsin ALS Chapter has received donations of about $250,000 through the Ice Bucket Challenge, according to Roach-Bekos.<br />
Fifty percent of the money will go toward research and 50 percent will be directed to patient care services, including costs associated with home and vehicle modifications; assistive devices; communication devices; transportation needs; medical equipment loans to patients; and the ALS Certified Clinic at Froedtert Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin.<br />
There are nearly 400 ALS patients in Wisconsin and new local ALS patients are diagnosed every week, Roach-Bekos said.<br />
Roach-Bekos said the challenge fundraiser has been vitally important to those who are affected by ALS. ""It was a phenomenon,"" she said. ""It made us feel as a community that we were finally being heard.""<br />
Driessen said she is amazed at the impact of the national fundraiser.<br />
""We are humbled by what the Ice Bucket Challenge has done for us,"" she said. ""I want everybody to know how grateful our family is for their donations and support. It makes us feel like we're not alone.""<br />

"I164","Wilpolt","James Henry ""Jim"""," ","14 Feb 1945","","28 Apr 2013","Broomfield Enterprise","It's time for Jim Wilpolt to get back on his bike.<br />
Wilpolt, a longtime Broomfield resident, is recovering from mouth cancer, a disease that took part of his tongue and took him on a six-month ride filled with major surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation.<br />
Wilpolt is in recovery and is regaining his strength and energy. But no matter how many miles he puts on his mountain bike - his main hobby these days - he still comes home to piles of medical bills.<br />
That's why Wilpolt is the honoree at this year's Party with a Purpose, a 3-year-old event that raises money for Broomfield residents battling serious health problems.<br />
Knowing he'll be the recipient of community support ""really humbles you,"" he said.<br />
Party With a Purpose started in 2011 to support Broomfield resident Jill Price, who had breast cancer.<br />
Price's friends told her they would hold a fundraiser to help her pay the bills, but Price said she would only agree to the event if they would help her put together a similar party for someone else each year.<br />
""I wanted this to continue for many years to come,"" she said.<br />
The year after ""Jill's Party,"" Price and volunteers threw a fundraising party for her friend Shelley Martin-Anderson, who underwent multiple brain surgeries because of tumors and aneurysms. Today, both women are doing well.<br />
Jennifer Wilpolt, Jim's daughter, said her family is incredibly grateful to receive support from Party with a Purpose. Jennifer Wilpolt was his main caretaker during her father's illness and moved in with him during the worst of his treatment.<br />
""That's what you do for your family,"" she said with a smile.<br />
Though the Wilpolts didn't know about Party with a Purpose or its organizers, the organizers knew about the Wilpolts.<br />
After Price contacted them to propose the party idea, Jennifer soon found out that Martin-Anderson lived just four houses away and was a Broomfield High grad like her father.<br />
""It's a small world,"" she said.<br />
Jim Wilpolt was in the second graduating class at Broomfield High School and was the first BHS student to win a state championship for wrestling. He also was on the school's baseball team the first year it won the state championship 50 years ago.<br />
Price said the Party With a Purpose fits well in community-minded Broomfield. Local businesses donated prizes and items for the silent auction, and the Fox and Hound is offering free chips and salsa as well as other appetizers throughout the night.<br />
Price said events like these bring people out of the woodwork to help.<br />
""I'd say that even if someone doesn't know Jim, they should just come out and support a fellow resident anyway,"" she said.<br />
During her own Party with a Purpose, ""I got so many donations from people I had never met. They just heard my story and wanted to help,"" Price said.<br />
Wilpolt said the help is definitely appreciated, especially as he continues to recover and sort out insurance and co-pays after a long period of not being able to work.<br />
He is now well enough to head back to work at Monarch High School, where he is a security guard.<br />
""I wanted to get back to see my kids,"" he said.<br />
He also is happy to get back on his feet and back on his bike, especially on Thursday, when the final chunks of snow from the last big snowfall had melted.<br />
""Today, I'm going for a bike ride,"" he said."

""When a band hits a groove and the audience is in the groove at the same time, there's a universal vibe that fills the place and it's very special,"" says Mark Wilpolt, mandolin player for Chico's Reckoning band. ""And it's what we're all seeking.""<br />
<br />
About five years ago, Wilpolt and friends set about seeking that universal vibe by combining the lyrics of revered groove bands the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band with the musical stylings of bluegrass. The fusion is what they refer to as Dead Grass, and it's attracting Dead Heads and traditional bluegrass fans alike.<br />
<br />
""It's fun to do because we're trying to do what we believe are fresh interpretations of the songs. We're trying to grass it up,"" says Wilpolt.<br />
<br />
""It started out just as a lark,"" he adds. ""I had an opportunity to play at a crafts fair and I said we were just going to play acoustic. And not only that, we were just going to play songs from the 'Reckoning' album.""<br />
<br />
""Reckoning"" is the double live album released in 1981 by the Grateful Dead that includes acoustic versions of some original fan favorites as well as standards from the traditional American songbook, such as El Paso and Tom Dooley. ""They're all songs we have played around  the campfire,"" says guitarist Campbell Church.<br />
<br />
Church and Wilpolt were once neighbors and note that other band members -  bass player Paul Friedlander and banjo/guitar player Lloyd Foote -  are all connected through teaching careers. Friedlander just retired from Chico State University, where Wilpolt still teaches math. Foote, who played in the 8th Avenue String Band, is a retired English teacher from Paradise. Church is active in his daughters' education at Wildflower Open Classroom, noting, ""I have three daughters and have been charged with driving them around and keeping them fed.<br />
<br />
""We've all been kicking it around Chico enough to have seen each others' bands,"" sums up Wilpolt. ""The 8th Avenue String Band was one of my favorite bands back in the day so it's an honor and a privilege to be playing with Lloyd.""<br />
<br />
The concept of the dead grass sound goes back to the 1975 release of ""Old and In the Way,"" a bluegrass debut album by a group of the same name, which included Jerry Garcia and David Grisman. ""'Old and In the Way' introduced bluegrass to a whole generation of hippies,one of which was me,"" says Wilpolt.<br />
<br />
Today, the band marvels at the diversity of people attending their shows. ""There are many people that don't even know we're a Grateful Dead cover band and they'll come up to us and tell us, 'Those are really great songs,' and they don't even know the Grateful Dead songs,"" he adds.<br />
<br />
While he'll freely refer to himself as a hippie, he's quick to note, ""This stuff is not old hippie music. We find that people find that these are great songs that stand on their own and deserve to be heard. And it's great music to move your feet to. This is good old American music in every possible way.""<br />
<br />
With the mellow confidence of a long-time fan, Church adds, ""Grateful Dead music never goes away. You can kind of get tired of it for awhile, but no one ever says that they don't really like it anymore.""<br />
<br />
After a successful series of summer 2013 shows in the North State on the True North Tour, more and more people are enjoying this fused sound. ""Those were amongst our most memorable shows, playing in those small towns,"" says Wilpolt. Organized by the arts councils of each community, the band played Chico, Red Bluff, Weaverville and Redding.<br />
<br />
Now, the band is on to venues such as the Ashkenaz in Berkeley and the city's Shakedown Street Festival. As for the future, Church is keen to play ""more of those memorable shows."" He sees the band learning more songs and reveling in ""the feeling you get when those songs come together, when you get those songs right."" He recalls the wonder of that feeling when, at the Chico World Music Festival, ""We were joined in the middle of a song by Joe Craven, who came on stage playing his fiddle. I heard him before I saw him.""<br />
<br />
Lately, the band has been sharing gigs with Wake of the Dead, a Chico-based Grateful Dead cover band. "" I see music as a community-oriented thing,"" says Wilpolt, ""My ambition is to provide fun for people and to hopefully provide an opportunity to shake their booty a little bit.""<br />

"I1001","Wilpolt","Mark Allen"," ","6 May 1959","","25 Jun 2016","The Missoulian","Escaping the heat back home: Logan Pass a cool place for visitors<br />
VINCE DEVLIN vdevlin@missoulian.com Updated 16 hrs ago 2<br />
LOGAN PASS -  When you've traveled all the way from Ohio, Texas, Indiana or California to see Glacier National Park, you take what you get on Going-to-the-Sun Road -  even if that means buckets of rain rapidly morphing into sleet, 41-degree temperatures and predicted winds of 20 to 40 mph on top of a cloud-covered Continental Divide.<br />
But if you've traveled all the way from Arizona, where it was more than 120 degrees in some places this week, you figure the Logan Pass weather actually isn't all that bad.<br />
""We can always put more clothes on, which is exactly what we did,"" said Rosalie Heuer of Tucson, who was at the Logan Pass Visitor Center with her husband Larry on Tuesday.<br />
At least the Heuers made the climb to the top inside a vehicle. Richard Huggins of Zavalla, Texas, and Stewart Leonhardt of Drumheller, Alberta, did not.<br />
""I can't believe there's no dang coffee for sale up here,"" said Huggins as he tried to warm up, and dry out, inside the visitor center.<br />
Huggins rode his Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail to Logan Pass on Tuesday morning, but said he probably would not have, had he not stopped to fill up with gas in St. Mary first, and bumped into Leonhardt, who was on his Harley Street Glide.<br />
""I said, 'You riding alone?' and he said, 'Yeah,' "" Huggins said. ""So we rode up together. Otherwise, I would have turned and went back to the camper, but I couldn't let a Canadian show me up.""<br />
As it was, Huggins -  who said it was 98 degrees, with 98 percent humidity, back home in east Texas -  was impressed enough that Leonhardt rode with no gloves on his hands.<br />
""I told him 98's not hot, and he said this is not cold,"" Huggins said.<br />
There is still snow at Logan Pass, several feet deep in places, and some tourists who can't make a snowball at home in January were more than happy to be someplace they could in late June, even if it was raining.<br />
***<br />
On a field of snow behind the visitor center, 13-year-old Cole Hicks and his sister Lauren, 10, were engaged in a snowball free-for-all with their father Corey and friends Joe Dippel, 13 and Maggie Oliver, 10.<br />
""Our family comes up every year,"" Cole and Lauren's mother, Tiffany, said as she shot video of the snowball fight to share with family and friends back home in Austin, Texas, where the temperature Tuesday was 99 degrees.<br />
Corey's family has owned a cabin in the townsite in nearby Waterton Lakes National Park since the early 1900s, Tiffany said, and so throwing snowballs a day after the official start of summer was, while great fun, not necessarily new to them.<br />
""But their two friends have never been to Montana before,"" Tiffany Hicks said, ""so they're loving this.""<br />
Not far away, 11-year-old twins Rylie and Kirah Knobel of Brownsburg, Indiana, just outside Indianapolis, were adamant that their family not make or throw a single snowball.<br />
""As junior rangers, they know you're not supposed to disturb the natural setting in a national park,"" their dad, Kirk, explained. ""They kept me honest because I wanted to throw a snowball.""<br />
The girls participate in the National Park Service's Junior Ranger Program, where they earn the equivalent of merit badges for completing certain activities in different parks. Here, they're learning about Glacier's wildlife and disappearing glaciers, among other things.<br />
They've done other Junior Ranger activities during a three-week trip out West, which has also included visits to Yellowstone and Badlands national parks, Mount Rushmore, Devil's Tower and the Crazy Horse Memorial.<br />
""We've made a bunch of stops, but Glacier was the ultimate goal,"" Kirk said.<br />
As far as memories go, according to Rylie and Kirah, it will be hard to top watching ""Close Encounters of the Third Kind"" on an outdoor screen with the actual Devils Tower, where the 1977 movie was set, climbing into the sky behind the screen. The KOA Campground where they stayed is located a short distance from the national monument, and shows the film every night.<br />
<br />
<br />
This isn't the first summer the family has taken such a trip -  they've camped in 35 states -  and despite Tuesday's wet, cold start to summer, the twins are sold on Glacier.<br />
It, and Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park in Utah, top their lists of favorite places they've visited so far.<br />
""Because it's beautiful,"" Kirah explained. ""Because it's June, and it's such different scenery.""<br />
<br />
***<br />
Among the crowd that packed the visitor center seeking shelter from the day's increasing rainfall, were seven young Amish women from New Holland, Pennsylvania.<br />
""They're on a five-week trip,"" said David Stoltzfus of Berlin, Ohio, who is driving the 45-foot coach they've chartered from Pioneer Trails. ""We've taken them to North Carolina, to the Outer Banks, before, but this year they wanted to see the West Coast.""<br />
The 45-foot coach, of course, is a no-no on Going-to-the-Sun, so the group rented a van in West Glacier to reach Logan Pass.<br />
Mark Wilpolt of Chico, California, looked like he wished he'd hitched a ride with them.<br />
No one at Logan Pass looked wetter than Wilpolt on Tuesday. Like Huggins and Leonhardt, Wilpolt also rode to the top of Going-to-the-Sun.<br />
Unlike Huggins and Leonhardt, his bike had pedals.<br />
""Just call me 'Dummy,' "" Wilpolt said as he tried to dry off, though to what purpose wasn't clear. His return trip promised to be even wetter and, since it's all downhill and faster, colder.<br />
""This is the thing people do if they're a bicyclist like me,"" Wilpolt said. ""We cross things off our bucket lists, and Going-to-the-Sun was on my bucket list.""<br />
The day before -  a lovely day -  Wilpolt had biked the Star Meadow Road west of Whitefish.<br />
""Yesterday was great, but I totally blew it,"" Wilpolt said, explaining he wished he'd taken advantage of the nice weather to ride to the top of the Continental Divide. ""I thought there might be a break in the weather today, but apparently I thought wrong.""<br />
As dry and warm as he was ever going to get inside the visitor center, Wilpolt prepared to head back outside for his return trip to Lake McDonald as the rain started coming down even harder, and began looking more like sleet.<br />
""I bet I'm going to freeze going down,"" he said. ""But I'll be back someday. I love this place.""<br />

His new line, David Mason, features tank tops and tees, which have phrases like ""let's get physical"" and ""homolicious,"" that he hopes help people discover who they are.<br />
""My goal is to create a product and a brand that people feel good about wearing. I want people to identify with the brand,"" Witthuhn said. ""I hope my art is translating to the people and creates who they want to be.""<br />
Named after both his father David and Mason Street where he grew up, the brand David Mason has ties to Witthuhn's background in the Fox Valley.<br />
After graduating from St. Francis Xavier High School in Appleton, Witthuhn attended the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley and UW-Green Bay, where he got a degree in graphic design with an intent to use his acquired skills to create a retro, graphic T-shirt line.<br />
In May, Witthuhn launched David Mason's website, allowing sales to increase across the nation.<br />
""I think they're really cool, obviously, because I made them,"" Witthuhn said. ""They hit a niche in the marketplace.""<br />
Witthuhn said David Mason has a strong '80s and early '90s influence, along with a variety of other artists, which he said is unseen in many graphic tee lines today.<br />
""My artwork is heavily influenced by people just as Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring,"" Witthuhn said. ""The disco and New York art scene of the late '70s and early '80s are a huge influence on my art.""<br />
While selling his clothing at Milwaukee's Pridefest, an annual gay pride festival, Witthuhn said he sold nearly 40 percent of his total inventory. He hopes to see similar enthusiasm for the brand at Pride Alive in Green Bay on July 11.<br />
""I knew my stuff would do well, but I didn't think that well,"" Witthuhn said of his sales at Pridefest.<br />
He has already found a following across the nation in cities like New York and Los Angeles, and Witthuhn is using his website and social media to promote his work. He hopes to expand his brand in the future.<br />
""While I am starting out with graphic tees and sunglasses, I aspire to have a brand that carries layering pieces to the graphic tees  -  lightweight hoodies, thermals, cardigans, denim jackets, vests  -  men's underwear and swimwear, accessories and bottoms. My goal is to have a fully-assorted fashion brand,"" Witthuhn said.<br />
Dan Sawall, Witthuhn's friend and 30-year retail corporate executive for companies like Under Armour and Nike, said Witthuhn's energy to create David Mason has impressed him.<br />
""He's a one-man show,"" Sawall said. ""He's putting all the work and energy into it.""<br />
Sawall said Witthuhn has been focused on building the brand since the beginning, allowing the business to be successful.<br />
""The graphics are unique,"" Sawall said. ""Jeff is so committed to make it work.""<br />
As David Mason grows, Witthuhn said he plans to donate some proceeds to non-profit organizations in the Fox Cities. He grew up volunteering and working with families at the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Fox Valley and said he is ready to give back.<br />
""That's where my interest in nonprofits grew,"" he said of his experience. ""It's something I want to do.""<br />
Shirt prices range from $24 to $28 and are available in sizes small to extra large. More information can be found at david-mason.com.<br />

"I71926","Zwiers","Bruce"," ","Aft 1955","","16 Jun 2009","The Rhinelander Daily News","After 26 years, a soldier retires<br />
Giles Morris/Daily News Army Sgt. Major Bruce Zwiers, left, with his friend retired Sgt. Martin Eastridge, retired from the Army in April ending a 26-year career.<br />
By Giles Morris<br />
Daily News Staff<br />
The work life of retired Army Sgt. Major Bruce Zwiers has taken him just about everywhere the U.S. military has been engaged over the last 26 years, and civilian life, at least for now, is going to bring more of the same. Zwiers celebrated his retirement -   which was officially recognized on April 24 at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia -   with friends and family on Saturday night but he already has plans to go back to Iraq as a civilian contractor next month.<br />
Zwiers, who is originally from Kaukauna, has most recently been an intelligence liaison officer for the Inscom G-4 intelligence securities command, coordinating between civilian contractors and the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions in Iraq and Afghanistan. Trained as an electrical engineer, Zwiers has also spent plenty of time carrying a rifle in the working man's military.<br />
Rhinelander is a place he and his wife, Jill, have chosen to spend their retirement, in part because it is situated between his family in Kaukauna and her family in Phelps. Rhinelander also provided Zwiers with a pleasant surprise when he was in Iraq last year. The Sgt. Major opened up a piece of mail sent to soldiers stationed overseas and got a message from home.<br />
""It was just soldier mail. I reached my hand in the bag and pulled it out and here it said Rhinelander,"" Zwiers said.<br />
The letter had been sent by NCES student Faith Bartlet.<br />
""I asked my wife if she'd heard of the school and she said she taught there as a substitute,"" Zwiers said.<br />
When he came home for a visit, Zwiers went to the school to see Bartlet's class and thanked the children for their letters.<br />
""They asked the regular questions,"" Zwiers laughed. ""What did you do? Where have you been? Did you kill anyone?""<br />
Having served in Colombia, Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan, among other places, Zwiers said he appreciated the sense of community offered by Rhinelander and he credits his wife for giving him and his family stability.<br />
""I've been away a lot. Unfortunately it's difficult for the kids not knowing when I'm gonna be home. Jill holds it in pretty good,"" Zwiers said. ""I guess I have it easy. They have the tough part.""<br />
Zwiers is not resting on his retirement laurels. He is heading back to Iraq next month to work for CACI Inc., a security contractor, working the same type of liaison job he performed for the U.S. Army.<br />
For now, though, a career soldier is off-duty and happy to celebrate with friends and family. His best friend and best man, retired Sgt. Martin Eastridge, has come to Rhinelander to help Zwiers fix up the house and acknowledge his retirement.<br />
Eastridge and Zwiers were in Bravo Company, 15th Military Intelligence Battalion based out of Ft. Hood between 1989 and 1993 and fought in the First Gulf War together."
