Triple Digit Heat reaches local area - temps top 100⁰

It may have been cooler in the months of June and July but the heat in August has hit with a vengeance. The temperatures have hit triple digits and numerous activities have been delayed or cancelled due to heat issues.

Where can you go if you are without air conditioning or if you have an air malfunction?

Local residents, who are without air conditioning or just need to cool down, may visit local cooling centers to help keep cool during this oppressive heat.

In Paris, residents can go to the Senior Citizen’s Center for relief or they may use the library facilities during their operating hours.

“Anyone can come in and get relief from the heat,” said Senior Citizen’s Center Director Tara Sheffield. “Come beat the heat and stay cool with us - we enjoy the company.”

The Senior Center is open for heat relief from 7:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., on any day the center is open (Monday through Friday) “The Community Building is air conditioned and people can use that if necessary,” said Paris City Superintendent Phillip Shatzer.” All they have to do is check in with the city office personnel.”

For more information about the city community building call 660-327-4334.

People in Madison can use the Madison Community Center, on Main Street, for heat relief. If a resident needs a ride to the center or for additional information they can contact the Madison City Clerk, at 660-291-5235.

In Monroe City, the Senior Center has been designated a “cooling center.” The center is open from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. - 1 p.m. on Saturday. Call 573-735-2131 for additional information.

Brandie Kinnaman Mrs. Kinnaman works out of the Centralia office of Adams Realty and handles all the real estate side while also managing their rentals. Owner Darren Adams also owns a construction company and Kinnaman handles the books for that company.

Now that she is both the Office Manager and as a sales associate, she feels she can better serve the businesses customers.

“When customers called in regarding real estate legally I could not give them all the information required without being a sales associate,” said Kinnaman. “Having this new title allows me to speak freely to help our customers without having to pass the phone to someone else.”

UST ASK DAVE...

Small Town Living

Challenges... There are challanges all over the Internet. The biggest one right now is the ALS IceWater Challenges. This challenge was created to raise awareness of ALS. The way the challenge works is that person getting ice water dumped on them is donating $10 to www.alsa.org and they then nominate or challenge several other people.

Once you are challenged, there may be a time frame in which to complete it or not. If you do not take the challenge, you are supposed to donate $100 to the organization.

FaceBook has been overflowing (so to speak) with Ice Water Challenges. At last look the ALS organization had raised over 20 plus million dollars due in large part to the awareness that the challenge is bringing to their cause.

The videos have been both funny, fun and others poignant when someone with ALS or another equalling debilitating disease performs the challenge.

Equally funny is the bucket of ice filled with an adult beverage and a pledge to send the money to the cause.

In the midst of this push for awareness remember all the other local and not so local challeng-

As I was growing up I can remember my mom’s love for the country. No, we did not live in the country more like a suburb in St. Louis but there were several opportunities to “experience” country life. My mom and dad had purchased some land which was referred to as “the property” when I was about ten years old. Now let me tell you some facts about “the property” that I believe made it unpopular to myself and my brothers and sisters. It was out in the middle of nowhere and it took over an hour to get there. Then once we got to the land there was nothing on it. There was no house, no pond and most importantly there was NO BATHROOM! Now this might not seem like a big deal to some of you but to children who have all their child-

es that people are facing.

Food banks are serving more people this year than they have seen in many years and food levels are at an all time low.

Look to the left and right and there are needy.

In our community, in the next community and in the state. You have to look no further than you can see to find people who need help.

This Saturday the Paris R-II Elementary School is sponsoring a Buddy Walk to help feed those in need.

On Saturday, August 30 join your community at the Paris Elementary School Gym at 9 a.m., for the first ever “Buddy Walk” fundraiser. Elementary students will be collecting donations this week. All the money raised will go to feed hungry children in our town on holidays and weekends.

Its not as cold a challenge but one that’s just as needy! See you there!

MY TURN

Race and the Numbers Game

In its continuing effort to keep the Ferguson events on its front page, the Post Dispatch has published there the number of police officers in a group of cities where African-Americans are at least 10 percent of the population. Alongside of those numbers was the percentage of the city that are African-Americans.

Inside the same issue, the Treasurer of the City of St. Louis had an oped article the thrust of which was the position that a city like Ferguson, with a majority of African-American residents, should have a Mayor and probably a majority of the City Council that are likewise African-Americans. What is over looked is that these are elected positions and voters in Ferguson and other cities like it could easily make their decision on election day on the basis of race but have chosen not to do so.

Central to the discussions being called for on race is the concept that police forces, city government and presumably any group in a position of authority should resemble the people that they have to police or govern.

Sounds reasonable, but may not be so. This leads to the theory of proportional representation, P.R. for short, where, in a perfect world of racial balance, a city of 1,000, of which 250 residents were

African-American, 25% or one in four of their police officers and city council members should also be African-American.

If people were forced to live in certain areas that had racial and ethnic balance this may work.

But people buy and rent homes and apartments which they can afford and are close to family, friends and their work places.

The proportional argument and looking like the community doesn’t work well for present male leaders if gender is considered. It gets more complicated yet if ethnicity is factored in as well as race.

In addition, our census shows that many people of color are not AfricanAmerican, do they count?

Our present direction appears to be away from racial preferences in college admissions. In a tight job market, there will also be challenges to hiring policies of companies that seek minority applicants.

Thinking people will acknowledge that racism is still with us and many of us are too busy just trying to get by ourselves to engage in the discussions on race that are needed as a basis for corrective actions. These are the same discussions that I and other church members had in 1971 and 1972 in lawn chairs on Sundays at Pruitt-Igoe Housing in St. Louis. Not as much has happened since then as we had hoped. Recent events demonstrate how far there is yet to go.

hood life used a toilet with running water that could be flushed it was a big deal. I think my brothers were less intimidated than me and my four sisters using the great outdoors as our toilet.

We would have to drive through several small towns on our way to the land. I can remember my mom would wave to everyone we passed whether they were driving or walking. One day my sister asked her, “Mom do you know those people?”

My mom said, “No”. “Then why do you wave at them?” my sister asked. “Because everyone waves to everyone in the country.” she said.

She then went on telling us

or the grocery store and know the workers by their names not because I read it on their name badge but because I have spent time talking to them and getting to know them and they have taken their time to talk and get to know me. I love the peace I feel as I take a walk in the morning or sit outside at night.

When my family comes to visit they always comment on how peaceful it is here. They love getting out of the city and coming to a place they can relax and enjoy the everyday beauties God has given us. Yes, there are beautiful things in the city and I would not try and say there aren’t but there are also a lot more distractions in the city that can make it hard to see and appreciate the little things.

One day my daughter and I were taking a walk and I was waving at the people going by. She asked me , Who was that mom?” and I told her I didn’t know but I wave because it is the friendly thing to do.

Gotta love small town living!!!!

how much she loved small towns and how everyone seemed to be happier and friendlier. My mom liked the slower pace of a small town and believed it had a peace that you could not find in the larger cities.

As we got older the trips became less and less frequent. I can remember one year my mom saying she would like to build a house on our land and move there. Oh did that create a ruckus with the teenagers in our house including me.

I pleaded with my mom and dad to wait until I was in college to move there.

My mom and dad decided we weren’t going to move to “the property” because they felt like it was not the time to relocate and let me tell you my brothers and sisters and I were happy.

Well, things sure have changed since I was a teenager. I now live in a small town and love every minute of it. That love for the country I saw in my mom is now in me. I love so many things about living in a small town. I love it that I can go to the gas station

very old who are affected.

Remember these basic tips from your local health department to protect you and your family during severe heat and heat emergencies: · Check on family, friends and neighbors who do not have air conditioning and who spend much of their time alone. · Never leave children or pets alone in closed vehicles. · Eat light, well-balanced meals at regular intervals. · Drink plenty of water and limit intake of alcoholic beverages. · Wear loose-fitting, lightweight and light-colored clothes that cover as much skin as possible. · Protect your face and head by wearing a widebrimmed hat. Wear sunscreen. · Avoid strenuous work during the warmest part of the day; use the buddy system when working in extreme heat and take frequent breaks. · Consider spending the warmest part of the day in public buildings such as libraries, schools, movie theaters, shopping malls and other community facilities. · Be aware of medications that may impair the body’s response to heat, including antihistamines,

tranquilizers and some medications for heart disease.

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) monitors high temperatures and humidity across the state to prevent heat-related illness and death. The elderly and the chronically ill are more vulnerable to the effects of high temperatures. They perspire less and are more likely to have health problems requiring medications that can impair the body’s response to heat. Many prescription medications make individuals more sensitive to the heat. Some of these medications include antipsychotics, major tranquilizers, antihistamines, over-the-counter sleeping pills, antidepressants, heart drugs and some antiParkinsonian agents. Each year many Missourians suffer from heat-related illnesses, with some cases resulting in death. During prolonged periods of high temperatures, air conditioning is the best preventive measure.

If you have any questions or concerns about a heat related issue, immediately see a medical professional.

Due to donation all fifth grade students have instruments

Instruments for all!!!

Because of a generous donation from the Paris Presbyterian Church the Music department has purchased enough used band instruments, method books, and supplies to start all fifth grade students on an instrument.

APPEAL PHOTO

Elementary Music teacher, David How, will be able to start every fifth grade student on a beginning band instrument this year. Because of a generous donation from the Paris Presbyterian Church the Music department has purchased enough used band instruments, method books, and supplies to start all fifth grade students on an instrument. Students will have band every other

day for the first semester.

Second semester the students will have the choice of band or music class.

The school will supply an instrument, a beginning band method book for that instrument, and necessary supplies for that instrument for the fifth grade year. During the first semester instruments will remain at school. Second semester students that chose band will continue

to use the school owned instrument at school and be able to take the instrument home for practice.

Instruments will be collected at end of school year to be cleaned and prepared for the next school year.

Mrs. Johnson, Mr. Patterson, Mr. Shulse, Mr. How, and all others involved are excited about this new endeavor and are very grateful to the Presbyterian Church. The

Church has also agreed to pay for tuning the 3 school owned pianos.

To help add to the inventory for this beginning band program the school would gladly take donations of gently used beginning band instruments that can be sanitized, cleaned, repaired if necessary and added to inventory to be used by a beginner in the future.

Sales Associates...

Continued from front

“Having my sales associate license also allows me to be able to do real estate related activities during evenings and on weekends,” said Kinnaman.

Kinnaman explained that to get her sales associate it took two weeks of classes (in Columbia) totaling 48 hours of extensive training. After passing her National/State test she was also required to obtain 24 hours of additional education regarding rules and regulations.

She also explained that to keep your license in good standing you need 12 hours of continuing education every two years.

Brandie and her husband T.J. have two children Mairyn and Kaevyn and reside in Paris.

“My hobbies are my kids!” said a proud Kinnaman.

“I can get my broker’s license after having been a sales associate for two years,” said Kinnaman. “I can see myself running the Paris office when Verle (Hugenot) retires.”

Rick Reading Rick just finished his training and received his sales associates on July 29.

“I was looking for something to do,” said Reading.

“I like to be on the go all the time and this gave me something to do.”

Reading is no stranger to Paris residents as he spent 28 years in education both as a teacher and in administration as a principal.

Reading explained that as a sales associate he could list, sell and show properties and homes. He noted that he could also contact other agents about showing properties and he could make out of state referrals.

“Without having my broker’s license, I work for Adams Realty and the company name has to be on all my sales,” said Rick.

Reading enjoys refinishing furniture, fishing, enjoys the outdoors, enjoys being with his grandchildren and gardening. Reading also umpires baseball and softball, coaches Paris R-II junior high basketball and supervises the ASVAB (military test) at schools in northern Missouri.

Rick and his wife Pat, reside in Paris and have two children - Thena and Ryan and have two grandchildren.

CHURCH NEWS

Today pastor Kenny’s message was titled, “Spiritual Growth.” Scripture was taken from 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10. Growth has to come from understanding what God wants. When the Gospel is received, the devil has to change his tactics. You have to have strong faith roots, and apostles are root starters. It’s our job to obey the Holy Spirit, as He runs the church and reveals God’s word. We must be in constant prayer for new converts.

When your faith is real and you’re sharing the gospel and not afraid to show Christ, word will spread!

Praise for Dorothy and Evert Kendrick celebrating 66 years of marriage this week! Kathy Lairds son and family doing good. Paris football team had no injuries at their game last week. Welcomed today new addition to Tom and Ashley East, their daughter Addison. Chris and Jessica Buffington have a new baby niece.

Happy birthday was sung to Andi Holmes. Salt Saturday is August 30 and the group is still collecting food for Festival of Sharing and will be packing food boxes.

Baby shower for Matt and Sara Watson September 6, 2 p.m., at the Paris Library. Thank you’s to the church for supporting those that attended the Women of Faith conference in Kansas City. Church picnic on September 21st at Buzzards Roost. Innovation will be providing our praise and worship music August 31st.

Bible study is every Wednesday night, carry in meal at 6 p.m., and study at 6:30 p.m. Sunday school is at 9:30 a.m., and worship service at 10:30 a.m.

Greetings from FaithWalk Ministries – Bishop Harold G. Long, Pastor Morning worship service began at 10:30 a.m.

“We Lift Our Hands” – sung by FaithWalk Choir Prayer-led by Elder Helen Fugate Scripture-read by Bro. Michael Thompson “You Brought Me Through This” – sung by FaithWalk Choir Offering (Seed planting)-directed by Elder Kelley Ballenger. Our Vision and Mission Statements were read in unison, declaring that FaithWalk Ministry’s constant goal is the work of, “Building and Sustaining Strong Communities by Breaking the Cycle of Addictive Failures.”

“Speak To My Heart” – sung by FaithWalk Choir Bishop Long’s message was entitled, “What Is Your Reason?”

Isaiah 1:18-20 – “Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 19 – If you are willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land: 20 – But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”

‘Reason’ - Something that supports a conclusion or explains a fact behind the action or actions.

We do nothing and we say nothing without a reason or reasons. There can be rational grounds or irrational grounds when we do or say something. There will always be motive/motives behind what we say or what we do. God does and says things for a reason, but His reasons are always pure and just.

God said in Isaiah 1:18 - “Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. We can see the pure and just reasoning of God, warning His people that if they would heed His reason/reasons, they would be blessed; if not, they would suffer the consequences from their own reasons for not obeying.

Our reasons can be life threatening to us and can cost us more than we can or are willing to pay.

We need to constantly consider our actions, the reasons we do them, or why we have done them.

Reasoning together with God means to come to a legal decision, not a call to compromise, but a call to come to an agreement with God concerning our sinful nature, in order to receive a way to victory through Him. God has to become the focus point in our lives so we can recognize our focus length of God, which will result in our adjustment to the distinct view of God; that He is the ultimate resolve for our lives.

Come and worship with us! Weekly service times: Tuesday at 7 p.m., Thursday at 7 p.m., and Sunday at 10:30 a.m., and 7 p.m. God bless you!

Quote from Henrietta Mears: Let the Bible fill the memory, rule the heart, and guide the feet.

The August 24 worship hour at the Perry Christian Church began with Arlen Provancha singing “Love Lifted Me”. Our pastor for the day was Nancy Kellstrom.

Nancy Seelow introduced her granddaughter. She also invited everyone to the carry-in dinner to be held after services. Wiley Hibbard invited the church to the Center Olivet Christian Church on Sept. 14, 2 p.m., as they celebrate their 100th anniversary. Dedication service followed by social hour and tea.

“Come, We That Love the Lord” was sung in praise.

The prayer hymn was “Sweet Hour of Prayer”. Those remembered in prayer were Floyd Seelow, Julie Fohey and also two families that are co-workers with Chris Johnson, at Watlow. “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus” was the response.

“Beneath the Cross of Jesus” was the communion hymn. The Pastor gave the invitation to share the Lord’s Supper. Joyce Coleman and Jim Gay gave the elder’s prayers. LouAnn Hetrick, Wyatt Lewellen, Tom Hurley and Greg Harrison served as deacons.

Jeannie Gay explained to the children what belonging to the family of Christians means.

Matthew 16:13-20 was read by Chris Johnson for the Pastor’s sermon on “Who Do You Say That I Am”.

Christ walks the way before us and beside us. How do you live your christian life with Him? “Redeeming Love” was the invitation hymn. We closed singing, “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”.

Services Sunday, Aug. 24 began with Patti Grimmett playing “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” on the piano followed by Debbie Carey leading in song to “Blessed Be The Name”, “Count your Blessings”, “Doxology”, “Leaning On The Everlasting Arms” and “God Will Take Care Of You”.

Pastor John Grimmett led in prayer for Bryan Carey; Max Tilt; Lea Halleman; California Earthquake situation; Ellen Neubraugh; Nikki Blackaber; Tom Ingram; Abby and Amanda; identity theft of children; WEA Kirk Convention Oct. 7-9 and praise for Billie Cearley’s travels and all said the Lord’s prayer.

Debbie sang the beautiful “His Eye Is On The Sparrow”.

The message, “Jesus Paid It All...Even The Taxes!” was based on scripture from Matthew 17:24-27, as we are the most precious things in the world to God... everything we own is a gift from God! He provided everything for man and woman in the garden - the Lord provides! He gives nourishment. Jesus talked of taxes, the temple tax in Matthew 17:24. By faith Christ dwells in the temple, we are His temple. Money cannot buy everything - money cannot by heaven! He paid the taxes because of God’s love - the King of Kings as a servant. So humble to even pay the tax... the tax of God’s love. God blesses us with the ability to pay taxes - help a neighbor - help the church - just as He provides for us! Jesus does pay it all - He even paid His life for you...

What can you give back to Him? Patti played “’Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus” as Earl Sweitzer led the Offertory.

All retired in fellowship as Patti played “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing”.

Services are held every Sunday at 9 a.m. and all are welcome and invited to come hear the word of the Lord.

Attend the church of your choice

Following the prelude by organist, Jane Akers, Reverend David Holmes welcomed all in attendance at Holliday Christian Church on August 24.

The annual fish fry/carry-in supper will be held at the church on Wednesday, September 17. The attendance banner was awarded to Holliday Christian Church at the hymn sing held at Madison on August 17.

Happy birthday wishes were for: Pete Olney, Tara Bollinger, Andrea Callison and Tanya Ragsdale.

The opening hymn, “I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord” was sung; pastoral prayer and Gloria Patri followed.

Those who are ill or injured were remembered in prayer: Margaret Olney, Sue Fennell, Carol Hunt, Jim Hurst and Sherry and Keith Crillo. Prayers were asked for Drew and Betsy Dailing – Drew will donate bone marrow for a transplant to his mother, Betsy, this week.

The prayer hymn, ‘Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus” was followed by prayer and recital of the Lord’s Prayer.

As elders, Gary Wilson and Pete Olney, went forward to serve at the Lord’s Table, the communion hymn, “Bread of Heaven” was sung. Deacons were Johnny Ragsdale and Gerald Roberts. The doxology closed the communion portion of the service following sharing of communion and offering collection.

Matthew 16:13-20 was the scripture referenced by Reverend Holmes for the morning message, “ACT Upon Your Faith . . . Build on the Foundation of Jesus”.

What does Jesus see in us? What makes us worthy of His faith? The answer is in your hands.

The closing hymn, “Send the Light”, was sung, followed by prayer and singing of “The Spirit Song” to close morning worship.

Following a time of fellowship and for refreshments, Bible Study began with humorous readings by Jane Akers, “It’s Sunday Morning”, “I’m the Pastor’s Mother”, “What’s Your Religion?” and “The Best Way to Pray”.

Diane Wilson also read “The Limo Driver.” Jane then led the group in the study of Acts Chapters 9-11.

On August 25, the church hosted a breakfast for all teachers and staff of Holliday School. Services are held each Sunday at Holliday Christian Church beginning with worship at 9:30 a.m., followed by Bible Study at 10:30 a.m. All are welcomed and encouraged to attend.

We were blessed to have Diane Hickman and Brenda Duncan (Joyful Sound) presenting music. They sang “Lean on You Lord”. Diane sang “Learning to Lean” with Brenda on the organ; they later performed the special music, “Stand Still”.

John Mitchell gave the children’s sermon. He gave an example of making an eternal decision. He told about a boy named “Johnny” who misbehaved a lot of the time. They took a piece of wood and drove nails in it when he did something wrong. There were a lot of nails in the wood. Then one day he went to church and accepted Christ. He began to do good things so they began to take the nails out until they were all gone. He had made an eternal choice with Jesus. Lindsey Mitchell led children’s church.

Reverend Wesley Hammond’s sermon title was “Oh Wretched Man” from Romans 7. Sometimes we sin because we do not know better, we are not mature or because we want to. Verse 5 tells us when we were in the flesh the law revealed sin and created within us immoral desires. We are dead to the old law through Christ and therefore we release ourselves to serve the new way of the Spirit. Paul writes of a personal struggle between the Spiritual man and the persistence of sin around us. In verse 24, he says, “..what a wretched man I am,..” and in verse 25, “Thanks be to God who delivers me through Christ Jesus Our Lord”.

For their first game of the 2014 season, the Paris Coyotes used a very balanced attack to defeat the Schuyler County Rams 387.

How the Coyotes won can easily be described in four words – offence, defense and special teams. For the Coyotes it was as a complete game as they could have imagined for the first “real” game of the season.

Offensively, the Coyotes had Schuyler County on the ropes. If the Rams blitzed the Coyotes passed (197 yards) – if they dropped back into a zone the Coyotes ran the ball effectively (153 yards).

Paris started the scoring when quarterback Kyle Popkes drifted out to his right and flipped a rainbow pass into the waiting arms of Laine Forrest who had beaten his defender down field and skipped untouched 28 yards into the end zone for a 6-0 lead.

In the second quarter, Jon Turner rushed the quarterback and with a jarring hit dislodged the ball into the air – August Hayhurst plucked the ball from the air and returned the rock 30 yards for an interception return and a 12-0 Paris lead.

Schuyler County got onto the board late in the quarter with a scoring run.

Paris led at the half 12-7.

To begin the second half, Laine Forrest settled under the second half kickoff bounced a step to the right and then reversed field to the left and behind a solid wall of Coyote blockers took the ball 80 yards for a touchdown and a Coyote 18-7 lead.

The Coyotes manhandled the Rams in the third quarter stopping all Ram drives short of first downs with a strong defensive presence and putting up a 20 point quarter on the guests.

Popkes tossed his second score of the game with a nifty roll out and short jump three-yard pass to Forrest who also registered his second score of the game. (24-7) After Briar Hancock and August Hayhurst stopped a Schuyler County drive, the Coyotes drove 51 yards ending in a Tucker Gruber one-yard plunge for a score. Popkes hit Forest for the 2-point conversion and Paris led 32-7.

After another great defensive stop for the Coyote defense, who had three players with double digit tackles (August Hayhurst, Briar Hancock, Breck Hancock) led to a Tucker Gruber 35 yard touchdown run.

Gruber took the handoff from Popkes, hit the line and found running room to the goal line the final 38-7 score.

Paris posted 153 rushing yards and 197 passing yardage for a total of 350 yards for the game.

“It was a good first game,” said Coach Gary Crusha. “We played extremely hard. We need to correct some mistakes but overall it was a great game for us.”

Offensively, Popkes tossed the ball 29 times and completed 16 balls for 197 yards and two scores with no picks. He also completed a two-point conversion.

Slater Stone led the re-

ceiving corps with 8 balls for 126 yards – or a 15.75 yard per catch average.

Tucker Gruber led all rushers with 80 yards and two scores.

Defensively, Briar Hancock led all defenders with 19 tackles. August Hayhurst led the team in sacks and had the interception return off the Jon Turner quarterback hug. Gruber also added an interception to the stat total.

Statistics Scoring Laine Forrest 28 yard pass from Kyle Popkes; August Hayhurst 30 yard interception return; Forrest 3 yard pass from Popkes; Forrest 80 yard kickoff return; Tucker Gruber 1 yard run; Gruber 35 yard run; Forrest 2 point conversion pass from Popkes.

LARI JO “JODY” REYNOLDS

1949-2014

Lari Jo “Jody” Reynolds

Lari Jo “Jody” Reynolds, 65, of Monroe City Missouri, passed away peacefully in her home at 3:45 p.m., on Sunday, August 24, 2014. She was surrounded by her family.

Jody was born February 8, 1949 in Fort Madison, Iowa. Her parents were Bob and Nancy Yaeger. When Jody was 5, her mother Nancy passed away of cancer. Jody and her sister, Lisa Wallace, were adopted by her maternal grandparents, Leone and Orville Wallace, and her big brother Jack.

They moved to Hannibal, Missouri. She lived in Hannibal until she was 18, when she married Kermit Reynolds of Stoutsville.

Kermit and Jody had 4 children—Julie Leone, Crystal Louise, Luke Scot, and Sara Elizabeth.

In 1986, Jody met Larry Painter. Larry became her lifelong love and partner and was at her side until her death. Larry also had 4 children, Joan, Kevin, Steven, and Larry Jr. (deceased 2002).

Jody had 15 grandkids—Victoria Vaughn, Annie Paige Cook, Jessie AG Max Poliuto, Philip Peyton, Kelby Painter, Trey Cook, Zachary Painter, Eva Grace Painter, Sadie Cook, Brian Place, Ethan Place, Henry Peyton, Kelson Painter, Peter Peyton, and Samantha Painter. She had 2 great grandkids—Rowan Vaughn and Maverick Scot Vaughn.

When she was young, Jody loved reading books and riding the train with her Daddy Orville, who was a conductor for the railroad. When she grew up, she loved to go fishing and mushroom hunting.

She loved all kinds of fish-

ing but found particular joy in the many trips she took to Rockbridge Trout Ranch in Southern Missouri. She loved to ride her motorcycle and go exploring on the farm in Stoutsville and in the Salt River bottoms. She loved to go arrowhead hunting.

During the construction of Mark Twain Lake, Jody worked as an assistant doing archaeological excavations for the University of Nebraska. She worked as a cook at Crickets Supper Club. She also spent many years working in manufacturing at Gates in Paris, Missouri and at Kuhlman’s Diecasting and Diemakers in Monroe City, Missouri. Jody led a very active life until health issues forced her to quit working. Later in life Jody enjoyed reading books and magazines, painting, going fishing, and trips to the casinos.

But more than anything, she enjoyed spending time with her family. Everyone who knew Jody will remember her beautiful, kind and loving heart.

Visitation was held 12-2 p.m., on Wednesday, August 27, at Agnew Funeral Home. Funeral services were at 2 p.m., at the same location with Pastor Steve Goughnour officiating. Burial followed funeral service at Andrew Chapel Cemetery north of Monroe City near Warren, Missouri.

Rodeo in Paris to feature local cowboys Two of the biggest “sports” in growing attendance right now are mixed martial arts fighting and rodeo. In the local area a number of our youth and adults are very active in the rodeo circuit.

Paris has hosted numerous rodeos over the last five years at the Paris Fairgrounds. This year the annual Heidi Blackford Memorial Rodeo will take place August 30 and 31 and start 8 p.m., nightly with gates opening at 6 p.m.

The Monroe County 4-H will run the concession stand.

The upcoming rodeo is considered a youth rodeo because of the events available such as sheep, calves, steers, peewee, youth, and open barrels, and peewee, junior, senior and open bulls.

Local cowboys that are members of the Midwest Cowboys Rodeo Company include Brendon Hancock (Senior Bulls), Jacob Berghager (Open Bulls), Jacob Allison (Open Bulls), Seth Nobis (Bull fighting), Connor Johnson (Personnel), and Tom Secrease (Personnel).

Jacob Berghager, 22 years old, has participated in rodeo for six years. Jacob has worked hard to be the Reserve Open bulls Champion in 2011 and 2012.

Jacob Allison, 21 year old son of Bob and Mary Lou Allison, has been successfully traveling up and down the rodeo road for the last four years. Over the years some of his biggest accomplishments include: 3rd overall in junior bulls (2010), Champion in senior bulls (2011 and 2012), and Champion in open and senior bulls (2013). Jacob is currently sitting 4th in open bulls and will be competing at the finals on September 19 and 20 in Columbia at the Boone County Fairgrounds.

Connor Johnson, 18 year old son of Dean and Rhonda Johnson, started riding junior bulls in 2011 and ended his year with a third place buckle. Since then Connor continued to ride bulls and tried his hand at chute dogg’n. Recently he has gone to the other side of the chutes and started pulling gates and helping where ever needed.

Tom Secrease, 29 year old son of Bill and Connie Secrease, of Mexico, and Bob and Tammy Long, of Paris. Tom has been to his fair share of rodeos and when asked to help one evening due to being short staffed, he has since become a full-time personnel member with the MCRC. Tom is also a committee member of the Tri-City Commission.

Shelby DeOrnellis, daughter of Darrin and Mary DeOrnellis is secretary for the rodeo.

Brian Worthington and Heather Stackhouse are the owners, operators and stock contractors of the Midwest Cowboys Rodeo Company, based in Curryville. He has owned the company for the past six years and has since produced numerous performances.

“Our mission is to make sure Midwest Cowboys Rodeo Company is a family oriented event and teach the youth to build their self confidence and help them reach their dreams in the rodeo life,” said Worthington.

“Please come out and see your local cowboys and help cheer them on while supporting the Monroe County 4-H and Heidi’s Little Ranch.”

Available at the rodeo this weekend will be bracelets and koozies where a portion of proceeds with be donated back to Heidi’s Little Ranch.

Heidi Jean Blackford was the daughter of Jeff and Barb Blackford, Honeywell, and was tragically taken in a car accident on October 11, 2010. At the time she was dating Jacob Allison and following him on the rodeo road. The following year the annual Labor Day rodeo was to be put as the Heidi Blackford Memorial Rodeo because it was the first rodeo she had attended to support Jacob.

This weekend will also be the last chance to buy chances on a Las Vegas/ PBR Getaway. Round Trip for 2, October 20th-24th, 4 nights, 5 day in Las Vegas and 1 night at PBR Finals. $10.00 per chance or $50.00 for six chances. Drawing will be held on August 31, at 9 pm.

You can see any MCRC member for your chance to win a great getaway!!!

For more information you can contact Brian Worthington at 573-470-2463 or Heather Stackhouse at 573-473-8031. You can also visit them on Facebook or their website at midwestcowboysrodeo.com.

Hope to see everyone this weekend!!!

Seth Nobis is part of cowboy protection team Seth Nobis, 21 year old son of Brian and Dea Nobis, Paris, began riding bulls in 2007. In 2008 he was the Reserve Finals Champion for the Young Guns Rodeo Association.

In 2009 Seth won the American Family Rodeo Association Year End, the Young Guns Rodeo Association Year End and the Young Guns Finals. 2010 was a good year for Seth in the Missouri Cowboy Rodeo Company where he was the Senior and Open Bullriding Series Champion. 2011 Seth moved to

the Missouri Rodeo Cowboys Association where he was crowned the Bullriding Champion. In 2012 Seth captured 3rd place in the MRCA. In 2013 Seth decided to move to the other side of the bull and be a part of the cowboy protection team. He is an up and coming bull fighter and plans to continue fighting in between working and going to school.

Seth will graduate from the University of Missouri in December with a degree in Agriculture Systems Management.

Brendon Hancock is the 18 year old son of Michael and Faith Hancock. He began his love of bull-riding as a young child, watching his Uncle Jerry ride in the rodeo circuit. Brendon began riding goats at his grandparents farm, and would pretend that everything he sat on was a bull, and with his arm in the air, he would ride. At the age of ten, he was riding peewee bulls with the Young Guns Rodeo Association.

He went on to ride senior bulls through Midwest Cowboys Rodeo Company and is holding the senior division title at the present time. He has recently joined the Outlaw Rodeo Association, and last weekend, Brendon rode again for the first time after recovering from a shoulder injury he received while riding a bull in May. Brendon will be rid-

ing in the Heidi Blackford Memorial Rodeo this weekend at the Paris Fairgrounds. The event will be held on August 30 and 31 at 8 p.m. Everyone is welcome to come and cheer on the local cowboys.

Zach Howard is the six year old son of Rodger and Jessica Howard of Paris. Zach just became a member of the Midwest Cowboys Rodeo Company this year. He started because he went to watch Brendon Hancock ride, and wanted to try to ride the sheep. After that, he was hooked. He loves going to the rodeos and watching the animals and cowboys. Brendon has helped him a lot and Zach thinks there is no one better. From his second year of preschool he has wanted to be a cowboy.

Being involved in the rodeos gives him the sense of who he is.
