Savage, Clements top AHS Class of 2014 BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN Their grade point averages are off the charts. Extracurricular activities abound, as do both community service and volunteerism. Not only classmates, but friends and even members of the same church, Thomas “TJ” Savage and Holly Clements have been named Azle High School valedictorian and salutatorian, respectively. Both Savage and Clements have grown up in Azle, attending AISD schools since kindergarten. However, they didn’t meet until their freshman year at AHS. Clements, the daughter of John and Meleasa Clements, has an older brother, Ryan, who attends Abilene Christian University. Her grade point average of 103.67 earned her the second highest academic spot in the AHS Class of 2014 – salutatorian. She’s been a member of the National Honors Society throughout her career at AHS and currently serves as its vice president. She’s also involved in PALs (Peer Assistance & Leadership), band, and INTERACT, overseen by the Azle Rotary Club. As an active member of Azle First United Methodist Church, Clements participates in local and national mission trips. She volunteers at the Ronald McDonald House and community events such as Relay for Life, UP-

WARD basketball, the Community Caring Center’s Backpack Program, and Vacation Bible School. She is an AP Scholar and was selected as Rotarian of the Month in October 2013. Clements says her goal has always been to be in the top ten students in her class. “Once I reached the number two spot, I deﬁnitely made it my goal to maintain that position,” she says. “Becoming salutatorian was hard work and perseverance. It took enduring overwhelming amounts of homework and not choosing the easy way out.” But Clements says it was all worth it. “I am very blessed to have had the support of my family and the Azle community throughout my education. I am truly honored to represent the class of 2014.” Clements feels the accomplishment helps her continue on to achieve other goals and dreams. “I believe the lessons I’ve learned on the path to salutatorian will stay with me as I start a new journey at Purdue University as a food science major,” she said. Savage is the son of Tom and Teri Savage of Azle. His grade point average of 105.09 has earned him the exclusive valedictorian honor. He’s also received an appointment to the United States Naval Academy, where he plans to major in mathemat-

ics, commission into submarines, and eventually pursue a doctoral degree. Savage says his hobbies and interests include math and math history, Crossﬁt, activities at the Azle First United Methodist Church, philosophy, and the uninhibited exercise of his constitutional rights. His honors and awards are too numerous to list here, but include being named a Commended Student in the National Merit Scholarship Program, an AP Scholar with Distinction, Academic All-State, Varsity Swim Team Captain, and Most Valuable Swimmer. Savage also earned the rank of Eagle Scout in 2014. He asserts several acknowledgments for being where he is today: “I acknowledge God, for whom, by whom, and through whom I have accomplished what I have and will continue to succeed in whatever I do;” Savage says. “My parents, for loving me more than words can describe and teaching me more than any class; my teachers, for inspiring me, encouraging me, challenging me, and believing in me; ﬁnally, to any and all who give of themselves for others, for your actions inspired my decision to attend the Naval Academy.” Savage says his parting words are found in James 2:26: For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

Wilson’s department continues to work with the complex’s insurance company to determine a dollar amount of the damage caused by the two fires. “We have also required them to have a structural engineer evaluate the entire building before it can be occupied again,” Wilson said. Firefighters from Azle Fire Department, Lake Worth FD, Eagle Mountain VFD, Briar VFD, LaJunta VFD, and Silver Creek VFD as well as the American Red Cross, all responded to the scene for the second fire.

Hot tar to blame for second blaze BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN Two fires in as many weeks at the Azle Oaks Apartments in the 700 block of Jarvis Lane have displaced a total of 19 residents in one building, according to Azle Fire Marshal Kenny Wilson. The cause of the first blaze, which occurred on the afternoon of Sunday, May 4, remains under investigation, Wilson said. Seven people – four adults and three children – were forced to relocate from the four interior apartments as a result of the first fire. Twelve people – the remaining residents in the building’s four exterior apartments – were displaced following the second fire, which occurred Wednesday, May 14, about 8:20 p.m. Although the cause of the first fire remains undetermined, Wilson said his department’s investigation into the second blaze has concluded that hot tar, used by a roofing crew making repairs after the first fire, likely caused

AHS youth give city library, park facelifts By MARk k. cAMPBeLL On May 19, scores of purpleshirted Azle High School students disembarked at the Azle Memorial Library on Main Street. But the teenage horde wasn’t there to check out books or movies. Instead, the group fanned out and worked on the exterior of the building, planting trees, weeding, and spreading compost. The group was comprised mostly of AHS freshmen, part of Team Leadership; the group also spruced up nearby Central Park. Those ninth graders were teamed with a high school representative of PAL – Peer Assistance & Leadership. While the event was a success, even bigger ones could loom. AHS principal Sam Robinson noted that he wanted to see a 4-to-6 hour cleanup next year and expand the event to include even more students. Robinson’s ultimate goal is

AHS students shovel compost at the front of the Azle Memorial Library. to have the cleanup occur three times annually and include up to 50 percent of the AHS student body. Future cleanups would not be limited to the library and Central Park: “We would meet wherever the city’s needs are at

the time.” Sponsor Lisa Helm said, “The kids love it. They got down and dirty and weeded, shoveled, spread mulch, and cleaned. “They took pride in what they did and did it with a smile.”

Inaugural meeting of Azle FD Foundation slated May 28 Azle citizens and fire department supporters are invited to attend an informational meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 28, concerning the establishment of a private foundation to support the Azle Fire Department. The meeting will be held at the Azle Fire Department’s Central Station located at 900 Lakeview Drive in Azle. According to officials, the Foundation’s primary areas of focus will likely include: • The preservation of the history and traditions of AFD; • Support of the AFD firefighters and their families; • Foster greater community interest and knowledge in policies and standards directly im-

AHS’ Interact Club stays busy Azle Rotary Club oversees teen organization by mark k. campbell Members of the Interact Club at Azle High School were lauded by their parent group, the Azle Rotary Club, at the latter’s May 14 meeting. A presentation by Interact members Sheridan Rose and Alison Shillings detailed the expanse of work performed by the group under the direction of sponsor Brenda Marlett, an AHS math teacher. The Interact Club began its good deeds before the 201314 school year began. Members took on the daunting task of clearing out a courtyard at Eagle Heights Elementary. Throughout the school year, “Interactors” lended a hand at

a slew of events, including: • The Azle Memorial Library Festival • Sting Fling • Relay for Life • Azle Basketball Tourna ment • Azle Lake Run Rose said members went the extra mile when getting involved with the Rotary Club’s annual distribution of boxes of food at Thanksgiving. Several Interactors elaborately decorated the boxes with holiday themes. Another program that benefited the public was Jeans for Teens, a contest that challenged groups to gather as many pairs of jeans as possible for homeless and displaced

families. The self-professed ultracompetitive Marlett said Interact gathered “several hundred” pairs of jeans. And, while Azle did not win the competition: “We will next year.” While the end of school is nearing, Interactors still have several projects on their dockets. Members will work the annual Azle Showcase Thursday, May 22 as well as gather shoes for the needy in the “Soles for Souls” program. Tentative plans are underway for Interactors to walk 18 miles to bring awareness to suicide in a program called “Out of the Darkness Walk.” Interact members acknowl-

acknowledged for their work as members of the azle high school Interact club were (front, l-r) Taylor anderson, sheridan rose, madison brechbuhl, alison schillings, sarah schillings; (back) logan Fowler, kalin clark, Jonah clifton, and sponsor brenda marlett.

Senior Spotlight by darlene holmes We had a wonderful 28th Annual Open House and Health Fair last week. There were several vendors bearing lovely door prizes and the community donated many others. Everyone who ate lunch with us received a nice prize. I think everyone left happy and a good time was had by all. Many, many special thank yous go out to all who came and had lunch with us and even more thank yous to everyone who donated prizes for the seniors. We had a pretty good-sized

AARP Smart Driver class this time – about 10, I think. Our next class will be July 17. We try to schedule them every other month now and we seem to have a better turnout for them. Our May birthday and anniversary party was Wednesday, May 21. We’ll be closed for the Memorial Day holiday on May 26. Our next “No Hot SCS Meal Day” will be Thursday, May 29, and it will be a sponsored one. They’ll play after lunch. Dennis Walton has come back and is playing dominoes with us again.

Ada Mae Horton also was able to come back. We truly miss our folks when they have to drop out for a while. Come by and have a cup of coffee and meet the Lunch Bunch. We have lots of food, fun and fellowship here Monday through Friday. We’re located in the B.J. Clark Community Center and Annex in pretty Ash Creek Park just behind and below the old library. Come on by and make some memories with us. You’ll be glad you did.

It is a special honor to announce the retirement of Sally Dieb, a longtime teacher here at Azle Elementary. Sally was born not far from here in Fort Worth, Texas. Throughout her academic pursuits, she has earned a number of degrees, including a Bachelor of Arts in French at Texas Tech, a Special Education Certification from Texas Women’s University and Texas Christian, and a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington. In her career as an educator, Ms. Dieb has left her mark on many students in several schools, including Forest Oak Middle School 6th Grade Annex, Monnig Middle School, McLean Middle School, and her favorite, Northside High School. She has been at Azle Elementary since 1997 working with Principals Chelsa Holder, Darcy Simmons, Ro McKinney, and Erin Deel. Ms. Dieb wore many hats as an educator. At the high school level, she taught French, Journalism, Resource Biology, English, Reading, Math, World History, American History, Geometry, and Algebra. At the Middle School level, she taught Resource Science, Reading, English, Social Studies, and Math. In her final tenure as an Elementary School Teacher, she was able to teach many of the same subjects. Regrettably she never taught elementary Science, even though she requested it often Her strength and compassion will be remembered by the many students who passed through her classrooms. While we are sad to see her leave as a teacher, we expect to see her often. If there is a soccer game, or other outdoor sporting event, look for Ms. Dieb. She’ll probably be out there, cheering enthusiastically. Congratulations Sally, it has been an honor to work with you and learn from you. You have certainly made your mark here at Azle ISD, and you will be missed. We wish you the best in your retirement and new adventures and interests yet to be discovered.

Lady Hornets sweep Canyon to reach Elite Eight By MArK K. CAMPBeLL The big matchup has arrived. Azle and Aledo – district rivals for years – are set to face off in the regional finals after each squad won its Region I semifinal clashes.

Azle (35-6) demolished Canyon at Abilene Christian University, winning the first two games of the three-game series, 18-0 and 13-6. The poor Lady Eagles suffered through an explosion of

the Lady Hornet bats. AHS walloped a remarkable 36 hits and scored 31 runs. In the opener, Samantha Bradley smashed her first tworun home run. She would hit another two-run four-bagger in

the series-clinching victory. Canyon had never advanced that far into the postseason. A 13-run sixth inning mercyruled the Lady Eagles in game one. In game two, Azle actually trailed 2-0 for one and a half innings. A 7-run bottom of the second put an end to that. Some Lady Hornets enjoyed exceptional box scores. Bradley went 5-for-9 with 6 RBI and 4 runs scored. Valerie Matlock scored 5 times. Raelyn Temple went 5-for-9 with 5 RBI and 3 runs scored. Nicole Aniasco doubled twice among 4 hits. Makenzi Harris (18-4) struck out 10 batters to win game one. Bradley (17-2) got the game two victory.

Coach Tracy Tadlock said, “We played pretty well against Canyon. We hit up and down the lineup.” That set up the No. 8 Lady Hornets to move on and face Aledo, No. 6. The Lady Cats swept Wolfforth Frenship. While Aledo has a higher ranking in the polls, Azle defeated the Lady Cats early in the season in a tournament. Tadlock expects a tough challenge against the veteran Aledo

squad. “Aledo is a good club. They have pretty good pitching, very good defense, and an offense that can score a bunch of runs,” the Azle coach said. “We are going to have to play our best softball of the year.” He added, “I think this is a very evenly matched Regional Final, and the team that minimizes mistakes and executes will be moving on.” To the dream: Austin and the Final Four.

Azle wrestlers achieve national mat acclaim Three girls earn Team Texas berths

The wrestling season does not end at UIL state – at least for some styles of competition. Azle High School coach Chris Allen recently took several athletes of the Azle Freestyle Wrestling Club to a “tough competition.” Still, several local youth shone, he said. Three girls – current state champion Jesse Grubbs, Ruby Ariosa, and Lauren Dale – won the state level on a Saturday and qualified for the Asics U.S. Nationals in Fargo, North Dakota later this summer. The trio will compete as part of Team Texas. Competing the next day was Two-time state wrestling champ Jesse Grubbs signs to continue her career at Lyon College in Arkansas.

What’s in a name? I am Spartacus! Hey, me, too!

omewhere out there in America, at least five young girls are now named Shiny. And Icy. And Skylit. And Camaro. And Zeppelin. It takes a whole lotta love to name a kid Zeppelin. This info comes from the annual most popular baby names list issued by the Social Security Office. Unusual boys names abound, too. Like Anchor. And Vice. And Subaru. And Furious. A household in 2020: “Furious! I said to settle down!” “Well, you did name me Furious.” “Just go get Zeppelin and get in the

more sense.) Now, I’ll make full disclosure and note that my other daughter (Hayley – we were way ahead of the Hayley craze of the 1980’s-early ‘90’s) gave her three children names that do not show up in the top 1,000 on the Social Security list: Link, Jubilee, and Oz. Imagine again that it’s 2020. You’re in the mall. (I assume there will still be malls then despite dire predictions otherwise; we need our pretzels.) If you shout at “Noah” to get away from the Victoria’s Secret display, about 20 kids will take off running because that was the most popular name on the boys list last year. However, if you blurt out “Rambo,”

only a couple of little dudes will scurry away. Names go through popularity waves. Remember when you couldn’t swing a baby rattle without hitting a Jennifer? Schools are thick with Emmas right now. Until Noah broke the boys name streak this year, the world was under threat of being entirely populated by Jacobs. The last 14 years, Jacob was No. 1. Either is better than the five boys named Alyssa. That’s enough to make a kid go all Furious Rambo on their parents. Mark K.

The true story of the “Unsinkable” Molly Brown

ost people recognize Molly Brown as the lady who survived the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 and was honored in a Broadway play with Tammy Grimes in the leading role and later in a movie with Debbie Reynolds. In a little booklet written in 1956 by Caroline Bancroft, I found the true story of Molly’s life without all the exaggerations that the play and movie included. Mrs. Brown would have loved the two productions, because she thrived on publicity, telling personally many tall tales about her life. She would have been happy at the “Molly,” too, for she tried to get people to call her that. Her name was Margaret, and family called her “Maggie.” Born Margaret Tobin of Irish Catholic parents in Hannibal, Mo. in July, 1867, she was the daughter of a ditch digger. Her mother was illiterate. Auburn-haired and lively, “Maggie” was

ambitious. As a teenager she worked in a tobacco factory, and then later as a waitress in a hotel. At the latter job, Maggie saw Mark Twain, also of Hannibal, when he came into the restaurant. She made sure she talked to him. Twain told her that mining camps in the Rockies were finding gold or silver frequently. Maggie persuaded her older brother Daniel, and he joined a brother-in-law who had a blacksmith shop in Colorado. At the age of seventeen, Maggie joined them in 1884. On the train to Colorado she carried all her possessions in a carpet bag and satchel. She brought with her enough food for three days in shoe boxes. Maggie got a job tending table at the boarding house where Daniel was living. Later she worked at an Emporium, a drygoods store. James J. Brown, not Johnny as the play and movie portrayed him, managed one of the mines. When he saw Maggie at a picnic with some friends, he arranged an introduction. At nearly

they dug them out after the fire burned down. As Jim prospered as a mine superintendent, they moved into a nice house in Leadville and had two children. In 1894 Jim struck it rich in gold at the Little Jonny Mine. He didn't own it, but because he found it and developed it, the mine owners gave him one/eighth interest. With the new wealth, Jim and Maggie moved to Denver. She wanted to be accepted by the upper crust society ladies, but they ignored her. Poorly educated, she spoke bad English and made many social gaffes. While Jim Brown was a millionaire, his fortune was less than that of the gold and silver barons. Maggie, however, spent it like it would last forever. She went on around-the-world tours. She also used her energy raising money for Catholic charities. Jim was uncomfortable with the elaborate parties she gave, preferring a simpler lifestyle. They ceased living together, but he still supported Maggie. In Newport, R.I. she mixed with the Astors,

Belmonts and Vanderbilts, but back in Denver society ladies still ignored her. A passenger on the Titanic, she found herself among the 28 people in Boat No. 6 with only two men to row. Maggie organized the women to take turns. When rescued by another ship, she spent three days nursing sick passengers and organized a fund to raise money for the impoverished immigrant women and children who had lost their husbands. When the ship docked in New York, a reporter recognized Maggie and said, “You came through.” “Yes, typical Brown luck. I'm unsinkable.” The legend began. She was 44. When Jim died in 1922 with no will, she fought her own children over the money. She died in 1932, having little money left.

Speaker wants highway fund for transportation only

ouse Speaker Joe Straus on May 14 said the Texas House of Representatives would propose a budget next year that uses all of the money in the state highway fund for transportation instead of sending chunks of it to other state agencies. Taxes and fees such as the gas tax and fees on drivers’ licenses go into the state highway fund to pay for transportation, but for almost 80 years, Straus explained, some of that money has helped fund agencies that are not directly related to transportation. Using the state highway fund exclusively for transportation would increase funding for roads by about $1.3 billion over two years, Straus, R-San Antonio, added. “This approach will make the state budget even more straightforward, just as taxpayers expect. It will also provide needed transportation revenue

Click It or...

fter 12 years, most people already know what “Click It or Ticket” is all about. Motorists who don’t buckle up in compliance with state seatbelt laws face fines and court costs up to $200 as stepped-up enforcement gets underway this month during the Texas Department of Transportation’s 13th annual “Click It or Ticket” campaign that runs through June 1. “Seatbelts save lives,” said John Barton, TxDOT deputy executive director. “That’s a fact. Buckling up will keep you from getting a ticket, and more importantly, it could save your life.

Early voting period begins Texas Secretary of State Nandita Berry on May 15 published a reminder to voters that early voting for the May 27 Primary Runoff Election begins on May 19 and runs through May 23. “Statewide there are a number of contests in both the Republican and Democratic primary runoff elections. This election is a chance for voters to select party candidates for the November 4 Election,” Berry said. The runoff election is for races from the March 4 Primary Election where no candidates secured a majority. The top two finishers from those races will now face each other to represent their party in

“Whether you’re the driver or a passenger, everyone in the vehicle is required by law to wear a seatbelt for every trip. The cost of not using one just isn’t worth it.” The “Click It or Ticket” campaign is credited with motivating millions of motorists to always use their seat belts. Only 76 percent of Texans used seatbelts when the campaign began in 2002. Today, 9 out of 10 Texans buckle up. The National Highway Traffic Safety estimates that since its inception, the “Click It or Ticket” campaign in Texas has resulted in 3,962 fewer traffic fatalities while preventing 66,823 serious injuries and saving more than $15 billion in re-

lated economic costs. In 2013, there were 943 fatalities and 5,383 serious injuries in Texas resulting from crashes in which drivers or passengers were not wearing seatbelts. Wearing the restraint increases the chances of surviving a serious crash by 45 percent. In pickup trucks, that number jumps to 60 percent as those vehicles are more likely than cars to roll over in a crash. In rollover crashes, seatbelts help keep occupants from being ejected. Texas law requires everyone in a vehicle to be buckled up, including back seat passengers.

the November election, Berry said. Sales tax holiday is set State Comptroller Susan Combs on May 12 announced the May 24 through May 26 sales tax holiday for certain energy efficient household appliances. The annual state sales tax holiday applies to “Energy Star” qualified air conditioners priced at $6,000 or less, refrigerators priced at $2,000 or less, ceiling fans, fluorescent light bulbs, dishwashers, dehumidifiers and clothes washers. Clothes dryers do not qualify. “Shoppers can save money up front by not having to pay sales tax when buying appliances during the holiday weekend and the energy efficient products can help reduce utility bill costs,” Combs said.

Godzilla rampages through generational childhoods Who doesn’t like Godzilla? Not many, judging from the fact that the groovy Japanese monster is 60 years old, has been in 40 movies, and this latest cinematic rendition of the creature raked in $93 million over the weekend. Godzilla is still cool. About the film Godzilla fi rst rose from the radioactive briny deep in 1954 in the midst of the Cold War when everyone everywhere was sure the atom bomb was about to destroy mankind. The prehistoric behemoth stomped ashore less than a decade after the devastating bombs that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end WWII. Japanese moviegoers could relate to their cities being demolished; an allegory was born. The original movie was called Gojira. It was a monstrous success. Preparing for an American release, Toho Studios shoehorned in an American actor, Raymond Burr who would go on to play Perry Mason on TV. The plot was rejiggered into a pseudo-documentary and was called Godzilla, King of Monsters! Godzilla was quite the rampaging critter, but it didn’t really unleash the giant mauradering monster series, the “big bug” era that dominated the mid- to late50’s. In 1953, The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, an awakened reptilian/dinosaur monstrosity, stomped around much of the American East Coast. However, it was Godzilla that struck the international nerve. Soon, a franchise was born. Eventually, the humongous colossus went from destroying cities to saving mankind from a slew of other gigantic beasties. Decades of “rubber-suited monsters” battling (including Mothra and Rodan) eventually evolved into camp territory. (However, the most terrifying dream the Movie Man ever had – a quarter of century old now but still disturbingly vivid

Mr. Tidwell goes to Washington Parker County veteran takes Honor Flight to war memorial By Natalie GeNtry Azle’s Harlan Tidwell experienced the trip of a lifetime last month when he and 25 other Fort Worth area World War II, Korean, and Vietnam era veterans went on Honor Flight Fort Worth to visit the WWII Memorial and other monuments in Washington D.C.

“He’s a veteran of the British Army, and I know he enjoyed the trip, too.” Tidwell said The journey began at 4:30 a.m. with an orientation at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. As the veterans boarded the plane a small crowd was gathered to see them off. The captain of American Airlines Flight 127 announced that Honor Flight Fort Worth was on board and honored the veterans. A larger crowd was waiting for the vets when they landed at Reagan National Airport in Washington D.C. “One of the most touching part of the trip was the people who greet us and waving flags and shaking our hands,” Tidwell said. “And when we got back to DFW they had [the Irving Pipe and Drum] band waiting for us. “They waited an extra hour for us because the weather delayed the flight.” he continued. In Washington, the first stop for the group was the WWII memorial. The seasoned veterans battled unsentimental weather as they disembarked the tour bus. The massive memorial has a fountain in the center and large pillars surrounding it. There is a pillar for every state in the nation. “The mall at the WWII meHarlan tidwell and his son-in-law Peter robey stand in front the texas pillar at the WWii memorial.

said. “The Korean Memorial depicted a platoon of soldiers on patrol,” Tidwell said. “The statues were fantastic. Most people don’t realize how large these memorials are.” Due to the inclement weather the groups could not go to Arlington Cemetery; instead they traveled to the Capitol. “I wish we could have seen the changing of the guard at Arlington, “he said, “But we couldn’t, so we went up to the Capitol and were able to walk around. “The first time I ever saw the Capitol was from the window of an airplane in 1953 as I was flying out to Europe,” Tidwell said. He was finally able to visit the building 61 years later. Before the group returned to the airport, it stopped at the Air Force Memorial. “It was amazing,” Tidwell said. “It is three stainless steel spires that look like jets shooting up and out in a star-burst [flight maneuver].” The Honor Flight group then headed back to the airport. Tidwell also said the volunteers who are connected with Honor Flight Fort worth are to be commended. “Everything was really organized.” he said. “These people deserve all the thanks we can give them.”

About Honor Flight Congress authorized the building of the WWII Memorial in 1993, in honor of the 16 million men and women who served the nation during the war. It was completed in 2004. Shortly after the memorial was completed, Earl Morse – a physician assistant and retired Air Force captain who worked at a small Veterans Affairs clinic in Springfield, Ohio – asked the veterans he helped if they would ever travel to D.C. to see “their” memorial. Most said they wanted to, but feared they would never see it because of their health, financial challenges, or both. Morse was determined to find a way to get these veterans to Washington to see their memorial. A private pilot, he offered one veteran a free flight to Washington. The man tearfully accepted the offer. The next week, Morse offered to take another veteran and the reaction was the same. In January 2005, Morse spoke to 150 members of the aeronautics club to which he belonged and outlined his dream of a program to fly veterans to their memorial. After Morse spoke, 11 pilots who had never met his patients stepped up to volunteer, and Honor Flight was born. From these humble beginnings, Honor Flight has ex-

panded into a national network that essentially goes non-stop. The program accepts applications on a first come, first serve basis, but as of now preference is given to WWII and terminally ill veterans. Korean and Vietnam veterans may also apply. There are approximately 120 Honor Flights in different parts of the United States. All in all, more than 100,000 veterans have participated in the program. How to apply A veteran application for an Honor Flight trip may be obtained by contacting Honor Flight Fort Worth at www. honorflightfortworth.org or email honorflightfortworth@ gmail.com “A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.” ~Joseph Campbell

Investigators recover stolen property Parker County Sheriff’s investigators recovered several vehicles and tools leading to charges for four suspects in a recent theft case. The original offense report was filed May 8, when the complainant told deputies his personal vehicle and three company vehicles had been stolen, along with a trailer from a business located in the 6300 block of Interstate 20 in Weatherford. The trucks contained thousands of dollars’ worth of tools at the time of the thefts. Two additional work trucks left on the premises had been damaged with shattered windshields, damaged tires, and severed battery cables. Earlier this week, deputies discovered one of the stolen trucks abandoned on the side of the road at the intersection of Hilltop Terrace and Mini Ranch Road in Weatherford, and another vehicle left at a hotel off Interstate 20. The business owner reported a disgruntled ex-employee – who had been fired just days prior to the offenses – as a possible suspect. A third truck was discovered abandoned in Hudson Oaks at a convenience store. Video surveillance showed two men entering the parking lot in separate trucks. One male exited the stolen truck, leaving it in the parking lot as he left the convenience store with the other male driver. The video showed both men entering the stolen truck and taking items from it before they departed. Tarrant County deputies later observed another suspect changing the license plates from another one of the stolen trucks. The suspect – identified as Lacey Gregg, 44 – told Parker County Sheriff’s investigators

U L B

that he was purchasing the truck for cash and methamphetamine. Sheriff’s investigators also discovered two additional suspects had been pawning items which had been reported stolen from churches in Arlington and Parker County. Other stolen items were placed in a storage building by the suspects. Sheriff’s investigators recovered the majority of the items stolen from the churches, including music and electronic equipment. The suspects involved in the theft cases were identified as Russell Scott Freeman, 27, of Azle; Dennis Glen Brooks, 44, of Lake Worth; Lacy Elaine Lemmings, 30, of Fort Worth; and Lacey Boyd Gregg, 44, of Weatherford. Parker County Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team members located Freeman, Lemmings and Brooks, and then booked the suspects into the Parker County Jail. Freeman was charged with theft of property and a previous warrant

for assault causing bodily injury. He was released Thursday on a $27,500 bond. Lemmings was charged with theft of property. As of Monday, she remained incarcerated on a $25,000 Russell Scott bond. Freeman Brooks was Photos Courtesy of the Parker County Jail charged with theft of property and warrants for violating a promise to appear, speeding, and a parole violation, which a no bond was placed. As of May 19, Brooks remained incarcerated at the Parker County Jail. Lacey Boyd Gregg Gregg was Photo Courtesy of the Tarrant County Jail charged with theft of property. He was booked into the Mansfield Jail by Tarrant County Sheriff’s deputies. “Our Criminal Investigations Division investigators and F.A.S.T. members did a wonderful job in following through Lacy Elaine with the investigaLemmings tion until all suspects connected in this case were apprehended,” said Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler. The case will routinely be filed with the Parker County District Attorney’s Office for consideration Dennis Glen Brooks of prosecution.

Non-pesticide termite treatment now available in Texas

Developed over years of Texas A&M testing, Polyguard Products, of Ennis, Texas introduces TERM Particle Barrier, the first and only Texas termite treatment not classified as a pesticide. EPA classifies the TERM Particle Barrier as a “device”. The concept is simple - quartz particles are carefully sorted and sized to an exact combination. Particles are too large for termites to move, and too small for them to crawl between. The particle barrier simply blocks entry, causing termites to forage elsewhere for food. TERM Particle Barrier can be installed by Polyguard authorized pest management professionals on the outside perimeter of existing or new homes and schools, as well as in bath traps and wherever plumbing penetrations come through the slab. No building should be built without this particle barrier, as it blocks most places where termites enter structures. TERM Particle Barrier should dramatically reduce the need for pesticides. EPA Establishment # 89537-TX-1 For more information, visit: www.ParticleBarrier.com Call Don Stetler (281.217.2965) or Polyguard (214.515.5000)
