Jerry Fiedler celebrates ‘150th anniversary’ BY SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

Memorial Day across the county

GRANTSBURG—“I’ve known Jerry Fiedler for as many years as he’s lived in town. He does so much for Grantsburg. He’s a good guy.” These are the sentiments of Mark Dahlberg, long-time Grantsburg Village President. While they are his words, the feeling is likely shared by most people in Burnett County. In the month of June, Jerry Fiedler will be celebrating with friends and family what he refers to as his “150th Anniversary,” noting 40 years in business, 30 years hosting his own car show, and turning 80-years old on June 20. By taking a walk into Fiedler Ford and passing through the saloon-style doors to Fiedler’s half-wall office, one can see how the tradition of hard work and passion built his car dealership. Instead of a laptop, Fiedler has car magazines, model automobiles, a calculator, pens and photos of friends and family to decorate the desk that he has worked for 40 years. Fiedler and his family moved to Grantsburg in the late 1970s when his three boys were young. “It was a very good move. It was good for our boys to grow up in a small area,” he said. The Fiedler boys were active in local athletics – football and basketball. “I grew up in the Prescott area,” he said, which is similar in population to Grantsburg. He added, “I was

The Spooner Police Department said officers responded to a call from the high school on Friday afternoon. “With assistance from the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office, the Spooner Police Department was able to locate the male in Spooner and take him into custody with-

out incident,” Spooner Police Captain Steve Pank said. “The Spooner Police Department would like to thank the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office, Washburn County Sheriff’s Office, Wisconsin State Patrol and Wisconsin DNR wardens for assisting in this matter,” Pank added.

chemical overturns in Ogilvie BY KIRSTEN FAURIE EDITOR@MORAMINN.COM

An overturned tanker truck carrying a hazardous chemical had Ogilvie residents ready to evacuate the immediate area and prompted Ogilvie school to send students home early on Wednesday, May 24. Fortunately, no one was harmed by the chemical; however, the driver of the truck was hospitalized due to the crash. At approximately 3:50 a.m., Andrew R. Bar-

lage, 47, of Grantsburg was driving the semi truck and tanker west on Highway 23 near Rutherford Street in Ogilvie when it went off the right side of the road and rolled, coming to rest on its side. According to Minnesota State Patrol incident report, Barlage was taken to North Memorial Medical Center and suffered non-life threatening injuries. The truck was hauling a 50 percent SEE TANKER, PAGE 6

accustomed to a small town. Moving to Grantsburg was almost like going back home.”

County’s only new car dealer In this area, the name Fiedler is synonymous with automotive. Fiedler Ford is the only new car dealership in the county. While Fiedler may have learned a few tricks of the trade here in Grantsburg, his expertise in the industry was molded by a lifetime surrounded by cars and learning every different aspect of automobiles. “I was born and raised on a farm and always had something to do with cars,” he said. And, as he got older, Fiedler turned his love of cars into a career by working his way through the ranks. “I worked as a line mechanic at the Ford dealer in Hastings. When I graduated from that, I went into parts for a few months and then went on to sales. For five to six years, I was a sales manager.”

Nearly 100 years of Fords in Grantsburg On June 1, 1977, Fiedler walked into 204 East Madison Avenue in Grantsburg as the new owner of the Ford dealership.

And, as a true leader, he knows the history of the building. “This building was built and [the previous owners] moved in January 15, 1921. It’s been a Ford dealership since day one.” To say that Fiedler Ford is a landmark of Grantsburg would be an understatement. For nearly 100 years, the shop has operated in Grantsburg, and for the past 40 years, Fiedler has offered the community a comfortable, friendly and fair place to buy a car. His business ethics are appreciated by many in the community. Michael Alderman of Jensen-Sundquist Insurance Agency who has worked closely with Fiedler said, “One of the first vehicles I ever purchased was through Fiedler Ford. That dates back for me to 1988 when I graduated high school.” He added, “In my family, I am the second generation to do business with Jerry. I do business with him, but I think he is also somebody that I would say is truly the definition of that classic saying ‘somebody that would give you the shirt off his back.’ Jerry would help you in a time of need. He’s a guy that I always think does the right thing even if it hurts from a financial level. He makes

Jerry Fiedler notes June anniversaries In June, Jerry Fiedler of Fiedler Ford in Grantsburg will celebrate 40 years in business, 30 years as host of the Big Gust car, truck and tractor show, and his 80th birthday on June 20, thus his ‘150th anniversary.’

decisions in the best interest of those around him.”

Antique, Classic Car & Truck Show On Saturday, June 3, Fiedler will be out on the streets of Grantsburg, showing his 1960 T-Bird Convertible at the 30th Annual Antique, Classic Car & Truck Show. “It’s always the first Saturday in June. That way it’s not a date you have to worry about,” he said with a chuckle. When asked about the incentive behind having a car show, he merely said, “It was just my idea. I like old cars and like to have a get together every once in

a while.” A kind man. A humble man. A community man. Jerry Fiedler is to Grantsburg and the surrounding community what water is to a crop – supportive, nurturing, essential. “It’s a neat little town. Great people. Good industry and great churches, all of them,” he said.

Open house honoring Jerry on June 25

An open house will be held on June 25 at T-Dawgs in Grantsburg to celebrate Fiedler’s 150th Anniversary. All are welcome.

Watch out for bad contractors MADISON – Wisconsin is midway through the spring storm season. Flooding, hail and tornados have already impacted a wide range of the state. For homeowners, the sudden fury of these seasonal storms can lead to extensive structural and landscape damage, leaving them scrambling to hire help in getting their properties back in order. The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) asks homeowners affected by storm damage to seek trusted local contractors for home repair projects and to be on the lookout for transient contractors (sometimes called “storm chasers”).

“Already our agency is hearing from homeowners and law enforcement who have had contacts with out-of-state work crews canvassing neighborhoods in the aftermath of the recent storms,” said Frank Frassetto, Division Administrator for Trade and Consumer Protection. “Use caution in your interactions with these groups. Never let them into your home and don’t give in to their high-pressure pitches. “These workers move quickly from town to town, leaving you with little or no recourse if you are ripped off, if they damage your property, or if there is a problem with a repair they make on your home,” said Frassetto.

MAY 31, 2017

Why does it have to end this way? We all want perfect endings to books, movies, TV shows. Different tastes call for different endings. I’m not one for grandeur or a tidy, wrapped up ending presenting everlasting serenity or devastation. When I read a book, turn to the last page, finish and put it down, I look to the nearest window. I want to see my character walking past, along down the street as if the day that just ended on the page is continuing in real life. Fiction was taught to me as others’ representations of reality. I want to have some sensation that I may know what that character is about to do—like I am able to predict the next sentence and the paragraphs that follow. Through fiction, whether a book or movie (more often I find this with books) we spend time with a character(s) Sentinel and we experience a narrative arch in which we forget our actual surEditor roundings and morph into an alterSean Devlin nate space. When we fall in love with a story and its inhabitants, we race towards the end without trying because we are consumed. By the time we get there, we have either not realized it or have imagined several ‘conclusions’ and have them numbered accordingly as the best fit for our new best friends. We are appalled at the end when our eyes drop to the white space where we feel more should be written. An ending we don’t agree with is unsettling and sometimes we feel disregarded, even cheated. Just recently my partner and I finished a TV series that ended - in our opinions - sloppily. After the credits began to roll, I did what every disappointed viewer does...I Googled ‘will there be a ********* season 4?’ I’ve offered a few clues. Yes, the amount of asterisks equals the amount of letters in the one (compound) word. It is still worth a watch, but I doubt many people will disagree with our views of the ending. The reason I was dismayed is because I felt as though my character had turned his back on me and I wasn’t sure what he was about to do next. The relationship we had built was dismantled and cast into the sea (another clue). I don’t see the point in a fiction that leaves me barren of emotion for the characters I have just spent so much time with. Some people may feel I’m far too invested in these fictional worlds, but I see a bad ending as a broken friendship, one that will be forever bent and unable to fully straighten, like crumpled tin foil. When a relationship between reader/viewer is broken with a protagonist, I feel a writer has done the opposite of his or her role as a storyteller. That role, to me, is to build empathy. And now, I feel none for the character I just spent so much time with. After all, I think we are more attached to books and movies than we think. Let me know how you feel about your broken relationships. Also, the show was on Netflix. You can reach my by phone, 715-463-2341. Email, editor@burnettcountysentinel.com. Chat soon.

Time for an indoor picnic! I hope you were able to get away this past weekend for the “unofficial” kick-off of summer, Memorial Day. Memorial Day is a time steeped in tradition — a time to remember those who have died in service to our nation. The holiday dates back to the Civil War, when the custom of putting fresh flowers on the graves of the fallen began in America. When I was in high school, I was in the marching band. Memorial Day was our second to the last performance for the year, and we only marched a couple of miles, from the Legion Hall to the city cemetery. From the At the cemetery, someone read “In Publisher’s Flanders Field” as well as the Gettysburg Address. One year, I got to read Desk the Gettysburg Address. That Lincoln Tom Stangl guy sure could turn a phrase, couldn’t he? Of course, the entire long weekend isn’t spent in memorial of the fallen veterans. Many families gather for reunions and celebrations, one of the few times that some extended families gather. When I was a child, my mother’s family would gather at her sister’s home for a picnic during the weekend, usually after the parade on Memorial Day. I use the term “picnic” in its broadest interpretation. What usually occurred was we went to my Aunt Helen’s house, bringing with us various food items in the great tradition of potluck. My mother would make her patented baked beans, boiling raw navy beans and then seasoning them with bacon, brown sugar, mustard and ketchup. My father, Arved (aka “The Chief”) was not the most diplomatic man. Looking back, I believe he lacked that small buffer in his brain that kept him from immediately saying the thoughts that came into his mind.

The Chief would usually blurt out something about the beans being buckshot. After arriving at my aunt’s, the men would gather outside to grill the hotdogs and hamburgers and the women would gather inside to warm up the food and get everything ready on the kitchen table, to be served buffet style. It was considered a rite of passage when you were allowed to be around the men and the grill. We came in handy for fetching another beer or taking food inside. The topics discussed were about the same as I imagine they always have been: cars, sports and politics. Inside, the women would compare notes on how their children were doing in school and catch up on any family news and gossip. After the final hamburgers were grilled and a few hot dogs burned to the proper level for those that prefer them that way, we would all venture in and begin filling our plates. Since my aunt and uncle only had one small picnic table and the kitchen table was covered with the food that was being shared, we ended up eating wherever we could find a spot. Some actually went outside to the picnic table, many stayed inside. These inside “picnics” were a source of amusement for the more sarcastic among the cousins. Looking back, I understand why we did what we did, but it really didn’t make much sense. Please remember not to criticize the food when you have a family gathering. It’s simply not worth the grief. As always, I welcome your comments. You can reach me by email, tstangl@theameryfreepress.com, telephone 715-268-8101 or write, P.O. Box 424, Amery, WI, 54001. Thanks for reading; I’ll keep in touch.

Legislature grapples with personal property tax repeal BY WISPOLITICS.COM

MADISON—Eliminating a tax sounds easy, until you follow the money that is collected. So it is with perennial talk of eliminating the state’s personal property tax. A recent public hearing on a bill to eliminate the state’s personal property tax starting next year heard from backers who touted it as a business-friendly measure. But, Democrats on the Senate Committee on Revenue, Financial Institutions and Rural Issues worried the lost local funds wouldn’t be completely backfilled by state aid, leaving municipalities and property taxpayers covering the costs in the future. The bill from GOP authors Reps. Bob Kulp of Stratford, Dan Knodl of Germantown and Sens. Duey Stroebel of Saukville and David Craig of the Town of Vernon guarantees that taxing jurisdictions will be reimbursed by the state for the loss of personal property tax revenue; however, it doesn’t make any appropriations. The authors told committee members on May 24 the funding would be handled by the Joint Finance Committee during budget deliberations, which are set to conclude in June. Eliminating the tax would remove $267.4 million from the books, based on 2014-15 tax collections. The state gets about $2 million of that, with the rest going to local governments and schools. The tax drew $270.4 million in 2013-14. Business owners from around the state criticized the personal property tax as prohibitive to both emerging and existing businesses. Sendik’s Food Market Owner/Operator Ted Balistreri said the tax punishes those who invest profits

back into their businesses to buy new equipment, like shelving, coolers, water heaters and more, by levying taxes on them that “never end.” “When we need help the most, when we just spent a lot of money remodeling a store, we are taxed the most,” he said. Wisconsin Association of Campground Owners board member Bud Styer said because of current exemptions, few people pay into it. “The hole used to be paid by everybody, now it’s paid by just a few. I don’t see how that’s fair. I don’t see how that’s common sense...” he said. “We don’t want to be the burden for that hole, this small little group.” Meanwhile, representatives from the Wisconsin Counties Association and League of Wisconsin Municipalities, which had previously opposed efforts to get rid of the personal property tax, said the two groups are “not opposed to this legislation.” Still, Counties Association Director of Government Affairs Kyle Christianson and League Assistant Director Curt Witynski flagged some areas of concern. Christianson said under the bill, state aid payments to municipalities in the place of the tax revenue are “frozen in time,” which could mean that local governments are “essentially losing revenue” over time. They also wondered whether the state would “remain committed to making this reimbursement in future years,” a concern echoed by Sen. Kathleen Vinehout, D-Alma, who said, “the bill doesn’t have a source of revenue to begin with.” “There is no revenue in this bill,” Vinehout said. “This resolution has not been met.”

‘They worried the lost local funds wouldn’t be completely backﬁlled by state aid, leaving municipalities and property taxpayers covering the costs in the future.’

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Thanks, Everyone!

Reject foreign aid cuts

To the Editor: My name is Danny Walker. I am in the fifth grade at Charlotte Latin School in Charlotte, N.C. A few weeks ago, my letter was published in the Burnett County Sentinel. I wrote that I was doing a report on Wisocnsin and asked people to send me information. Soon I started to get mail from the wonderful people in Wisconsin. Thank you so much for everything you sent me. I got maps, postcards, posters, pamphlets, stories and pictures of famous people and more stuff. They helped me with my state report. We had a big “State Fair” where we displayed all the information and stuff we got. Mine looked really good. I appreciate that you took the time to send me items about Wisconsin. It really means a lot to me. I learned about Wisconsin and had a lot of fun. Thanks again. Danny Walker Charlotte, NC

To the Editor: The White House just released a national budget that includes extreme, unprecedented cuts to foreign aid. Congress must say no. Here is just one of the many things on the chopping block: the chance for millions of children to achieve their simple dream of – and their right to – an education. With a staggering 263 million children and youth out of school globally, the White House responds by eliminating the main account that funds education. This is outrageous and nonsensical. What is for them a forgettable lineitem in their massive budget is the future for millions of people who just want a chance to go to school. Congress, do the right thing and reject these cuts.

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senators Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), a combat veteran, issued the following statements after the Dr. Chris Kirkpatrick Whistleblower Protection Act was approved unanimously by the Senate Thursday: “The dedicated men and women who take a risk to expose wrongdoing and waste in the federal government deserve the respect and support of our nation,” Sen. Johnson said. “Unfortunately, too often these courageous individuals are subjected to retaliation in an attempt to silence them. This must stop, and I’m pleased the Senate acted today to support veterans and whistleblowers across the federal government by passing the Dr. Chris Kirkpatrick Whistleblower Protection Act.” “When there are acts of corruption and mismanagement at the VA, we must make sure whistleblowers are protected when they come forward about this mistreatment so that we can address it,” Sen. Ernst said. “It is so important that we make sure our veterans are receiving the quality and timely care they deserve. I’m grateful to work with Senator Johnson to move this legislation through the Senate and become one step closer to better protecting our whistleblowers and improving our VA system.” The bill is named for Dr. Chris Kirkpatrick, a whistleblower from the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Tomah, who took his own life after being fired for questioning excessive prescription practices at the facility. Dr. Kirkpatrick’s brother, Sean, testified at a Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing in September 2015 about the retaliation his brother faced after blowing the whistle about the wrongdoing at the Tomah facility. This bill implements a number of suggestions he made at the hearing to improve whistleblower protections at the VA and across the federal government. The legislation will strengthen penalties for those who retaliate against whistleblowers, add protections for probationary period employees, and ensure federal employees have a greater knowledge of whistleblower protections.

Governor Walker signs music festival bill into law MADISON – Governor Scott Walker signed Assembly Bill 194 into law today, which allows an unaccompanied underage person to be present during a music festival at a venue that was issued an alcohol beverage license. “Assembly Bill 194 allows music festivals, which are a big tourism draw for the state, to continue to operate and benefit both the local and state economy,” Governor Walker said. “In the Chippewa Valley alone, music festivals have an economic impact of $40 million every year. When you look at other locations that are exceptions to the presence of underage persons, including bowling alleys, movie theaters and sports stadiums, adding music festival grounds to the list just made sense.” Assembly Bill 194 – adds music festivals to the list of exceptions for venues

in which a person under 21 years of age may attend without the presence of their parent, legal guardian, or spouse. Under current law, a person under 21 years of age may not be on the premises of a site that was issued an alcohol license unless they are accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or spouse. By adding music festivals to the list of exceptions, unaccompanied minors will be allowed to attend a music festival where alcohol is being served, as long as the attendance at that music festival is expected to be more than 2,500. Authored by Representative Rob Summerfield (R – Bloomer) and Senator Terry Moulton (R – Chippewa Falls), the bill passed the Assembly on a voice vote and was concurred by the Senate on a voice vote as Act 7.

TANKER: Truck overturns in Ogilvie CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

sodium hydroxide solution, also known as caustic soda or lye. Sodium hydroxide poses a chemical burn threat to those who may come in contact with it. The solution is highly caustic and when it combines with water, the chemical reaction creates a lot of heat. “Basically it will melt your skin,” said Kanabec County Sheriff Brian Smith. The challenge presenting hazardous materials clean-up crews was to prevent the contents of the tanker from combining with water in the ditch or making its way into the nearby Groundhouse River. At the time, there were no spills or leaks, but emergency workers were concerned about the tank rupturing when they tried to clear the wreckage. Both lanes of Highway 23 were closed as hazardous materials crews and

equipment worked to transfer the sodium hydroxide from the overturned tank into another truck to be hauled away. The Kanabec County Sheriff’s Office reported that all the equipment functioned as it was designed, with Ogilvie Fire, EMS and hazmat specialists ready to clean up any leaks that may have occurred. Nearby residents were warned that if a spill did occur, the town sirens would sound and they would have to evacuate their homes until the scene was cleared. At approximately 12:30 p.m., Ogilvie Schools announced they would be closing school early as a precautionary measure and sent students home at 1 p.m. By 5:55 p.m. the chemicals from the overturned tanker were removed and contained. No spill ever occurred. The wreckage was removed and Highway 23 reopened at 6:30 p.m.

BURNETT COUNTY— “It’s important to know what’s going on. Most people don’t have a clue about what happens here.” These are the words that Judge William Stewart, Jr. spoke to the Grantsburg High School government class when the students spent Friday morning at the Burnett County Government Center to see firsthand what happens in a courtroom. The students were not present in order to listen to traffic citations, but were instead seated in the jury box and exposed to cases born from disorderly conduct, burglary and homicide. Over the span of the morning, students heard victim impact statements offered over the phone and in person about defendants seated in the room. They listened as probation sentences were drawn up and also learned about the long process which is a court case. During a break period, Judge Stewart addressed the students and explained that the courtroom is not about punishments. It’s about hearing both sides of a story and upholding the law. One student asked, “Why did you want to be a judge?” He replied, “I think I have the ability of having a positive impact on my community.” He explained the process of becoming a judge in the state of Wisconsin, part of the process requiring that a person be a practicing attorney for no less than five years. The judge also emphasized that many cases are not dealt with in a speedy manner and can take some time to come to an end. Custody cases, for example, he told

the students, may take several years and require a high volume of court dates before being settled. One question in particular pertained to the foudation of a courtroom, “Why do defendants go against the state?” The judge replied, “That is because the state of Wisconsin is suing that person [defendant]. Somebody has to file a complaint and somebody has to respond to it. You have two sides.” The judge ended by explaining that under the Constitution, a person who faces criminal charges has the right to a jury and a trial without cost.

GRANTSBURG—Dr. Alan P. Roelfs of Grantsburg was named Biography of the Year 2019 in Strathmore’s Who’s Who. Dr. Roelfs is retired after 32 years with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and 23 years in the Department of Plant Pathology at the University of Minnesota. Understanding cereal rust diseases, particularly wheat stem rust and wheat leaf rust, has driven his career, and he has traveled the world at the invitation of wheat-growing nations from South America to Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Dr. Alan Roelfs of Grantsburg Dr. Roelfs is recognized as one of the world’s experts in cereal rust research. He was the foliar disease expert on the National Academy of Science delegation to China for wheat studies in 1976. He twice served as a consultant for epidemiology of cereal rust with the Intra-American Institute for Agricultural Research in Brazil, and consulted on wheat diseases in Pakistan. He served as an advisor for cereal disease research in India, Mexico, Russia and Morocco. Dr. Roelfs’ presence at the Cereal Rust Lab served as an incentive for visiting scientists from around the world. Since retirement, he maintains several active research interests including studies in biology and evolutionary relationships of rusts in the Puccinia recondita (leaf rust) species complex. He is also pursuing studies of the rusts of native North American prairie grasses. Around the world, Dr. Roelfs frequently consults on all aspects of cereal rust research including epidemiology, cereal rust surveys and techniques. Dr. Roelfs earned a B.S. in Technical Agronomy and an M.S. in Plant Pathology from Kansas State University, and a Ph.D. in Plant Pathology from the University of Minnesota. While a graduate student at Kansas State, he also worked as a research technician for the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service in the Cereal Rust Laboratory at the University of Minnesota. In 1970, after receiving his Ph.D., he was promoted to USDA-ARS Research Plant Pathologist at the Cereal Rust Laboratory and became an adjunct faculty member of the Department of Plant Pathology. He continued there from 1970 to 1993, and in 1981, served as Acting Director.

Drug Court Awareness Month BY TESSA ANDERSON BURNETT COUNTY DRUG COURT COORDINATOR

Drug Courts have a tremendous impact on our communities. Drug Court stops the revolving door of arrest and incarceration for people with substance use and mental health disorders. Research shows that treatment courts work better than jail or prison, better than probation and better than treatment alone. Drug Court programs effectively reduce addiction, crime and recidivism (the likelihood of a convicted criminal to reoffend) while restoring lives, reuniting families and saving valuable resources for our state. Nationally, 75 percent of individuals who complete such programs are not re-arrested. These courts save up to $13,000 for every individual. Today, nearly 3,200 treatment courts are in operation throughout the U.S., successfully treating about 150,000 substance-addicted individuals each year. Since 1989, these courts have saved more than 1.5 million lives and billions of tax dollars. The Burnett County Drug Court is a judicially supervised court that reduces correctional costs, enhances community safety and improves public welfare. In these programs, seriously addicted individuals remain in treatment for long periods of time while under close supervision. Drug Court participants must meet obligations to themselves, their families and their community. To ensure accountability, participants are regularly and randomly tested for substance use, required to appear frequently in court for the judge to review their progress, rewarded for meeting goals and appropriately disciplined for not meeting clearly stated requirements. Since its inception in 2006, Burnett County Drug Court has had 74 participants. A total of 47 participants have graduated. Four are actively participating, one was medically discharged and 22 have been terminated from the program. For the participant to remain successful in the program as well as after graduation, they need to apply the tools given in the program. Alcohol and other drug recovery does not end on graduation day; it is an ongoing process where the life skills and self esteem that were developed in treatment are necessary for long-term sobriety. “Healthy Minute” is brought to you by healthyburnett.org

Denny and I spoke at Crossroads Church on Sunday, May 14. We loved meeting new people and seeing our friends at the service. We thank them for inviting us. We love to have the chance to tell everyone what Interfaith is all about. If you or your group would like to hear our story, please contact us. It is so easy to make someone’s life a little brighter just by talking with them. I was in Walmart last week and was looking for some allergy medication. An older man was sitting on the bench facing the products I was looking at. He was just looking down at the floor and didn’t seem aware of much that was going on around him. I noticed he was holding a package of one of the well-known brands. I asked if he had much

luck with it. He looked at me with tears in his eyes. His first words were, “I had to put my dog to sleep.” I sat on the bench next to him and asked about his dog. His friend was 16-years old and he decided it was time for a variety of reasons, but he said it was so hurtful. His words, “My heart aches.” I sat there and he reached for my hand. Neither of us said anything for a minute and then I asked about his dog. We talked for about 30 minutes, never noticing the people around us. We talked about his dog, his family and then we talked about how we could would fix the problems in the world. It was time for him to go, so I hugged him and he was smiling. With little effort, just sitting there changed someone’s life. Not only his, but mine as well. Giving your time and caring about someone is such a small thing to do. I know his heavy heart was lighter when he left. I know that spending a half hour with him made my heart happy. I don’t even know the man’s name, but his dog was called Rusty. I thank Rusty for a truly wonderful experience. Giving is so easy and it doesn’t have to cost a penny. By the way, I never did get allergy medication. I forgot all about it. Barb

Depression: a treatable medical condition BY THE GWAAR LEGAL SERVICES TEAM

Depression is a true and treatable medical condition, not a normal part of aging. Older adults are at an increased risk of experiencing depression, yet depression in the elderly is often under-diagnosed and under-treated. Symptoms of depression overlap with symptoms of various medical illnesses, such as reduced energy, weight loss and sleep disturbance. This overlap makes the diagnosis of depression challenging. Depression is not just having “the blues” or the emotions we feel when grieving the loss of a loved one. The effects of depression extend far beyond changes in mood. Patients become less energetic, experience changes in sleep patterns, changes in their appetites and decline in physical health. It is a true medical condition that is treatable, like diabetes or hypertension. In the later years of a person’s life, changes occur that can cause depression. These include medical illnesses, death of spouses or other loved ones and retirement. Individuals who never experienced depression before may experience it for the first time as an older adult. Depression and the health conditions older adults experience can create a cruel cycle. Older adults experience a health condition that makes them feel depressed. Then, the depression makes them feel lethargic. Then, feeling lethargic makes it more difficult to treat the health condition or their depression, and this is only likely to make both the depression and health condition worse. In older adults, untreated depression can last for years. It can lead to or make worse other problems in physical and mental health and in relationships with others. Depression also makes suicide more likely. Older Americans have the highest suicide rate of any age group, with older men having the highest rate of suicide of any group. Treatment can help depression and help older Americans enjoy their lives more. Treatment may help older adults better deal with other long-term health problems. Someone experiencing symptoms of depression can take the following steps: • Sleep. Get a normal amount of sleep. Depression can affect sleep patterns by causing a depressed individual to want to sleep all the time or to not sleep much at all. • Exercise. Studies consistently show that physical activity improves ones mood and is often as effective as antidepressants, but without the dreaded side effects. • Eat Healthy. Eating a lot of sugar and junk food

Looking for a Specialist? d tto experience i h In I contrast, t t can cause th the b body crashes. healthy food provides energy and nourishment. • Social Connections. Healthy relationships with others can greatly improve a depressed person’s mood. This eliminates feelings of loneliness and isolation. If the depressed individual is physically unable to get around, inviting others over or keeping in touch via email or phone can be effective as well. Of course, these are actions that would benefit anyone, whether they are depressed or not. Some individuals with depression will need to be treated with medicine, counseling, therapy or a combination of these. It is really important to follow a healthcare provider’s instructions. Treatment for depression usually works and may also help older adults with other medical problems. Older adults may benefit from early, continuing and long-term treatment. As always, it is important for healthcare providers to review the list of drugs that their patients are taking for other health conditions, especially if older adults start to take medication to treat depression. Most older adults’ conditions improve when treated with antidepressant drugs, psychotherapy or a combination of both. If you become aware that anyone, including an older adult, is in crisis and may hurt themselves or others, you should seek help • Call 911; • Visit a nearby emergency department or your healthcare provider’s office; or • Call the toll-free, 24-hour hotline of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (1800-273-8255); TTY: 1-800-799-4TTY (4889) to talk to a trained counselor.

BURNETT COUNTY SENTINEL

IRS using private companies to collect Federal unpaid taxes The IRS has just recently started to use private debt collectors to collect delinquent taxes. This resulted from Congress passing a law that requires the IRS to once again use private debt collectors. Here is how program works: • Letter from IRS. The IRS will notify a taxpayer, by letter first, when the IRS turns over the taxpayer’s account to a private debt collector. • Letter from private debt collector. The private debt collector will also send a letter to the taxpayer. • Phone call from private debt collector. Once the phone call has been made, the private debt collector then will be able to call the taxpayer to discuss payment options. But, many worry the new program could lead to more fraud and confuse taxpayers. Many telephone scams have targeted taxpayers. Since 2013, nearly two million people posing as government agents have scammed taxpayers, according to the Inspector General for Tax Administration. It is estimated that scammers have stolen nearly $55 million from approximately 10,000 taxpayers as a result. Take the following steps... ...to prevent your hard-earned money from being stolen:

vate debt collecting firm you will be dealing with along with the firm’s contact information. You will then receive a second letter from that private debt collecting firm. The second letter from the private collection firm should tell you that it will attempt to collect delinquent taxes for the IRS. • Do not pay private agency. Never send a payment to a private agency or anyone besides the IRS. Instead, taxpayers should only send payments directly to the IRS. The private debt collectors cannot directly collect money, so a request for payment to them is a fraud. • Pay only the IRS. Taxpayers should only write checks to the “United States Treasury.” Anyone calling and demanding immediate payment by prepaid debit card, gift card or wire transfer – or asking for a taxpayer’s credit card or debt card number – is a fraud. • Old tax debt only. Be aware that unpaid taxes must have not been paid for a long time. Taxpayers will not receive a call from a private collection agency unless the taxpayer has several years of unpaid tax debts and the taxpayer has already heard from the IRS multiple times. • Enforce your rights by ensuring private debt collectors follow the law when collecting unpaid taxes. The private debt collectors must respect taxpayers’ rights.

• Expect two letters. Understand that you will receive two letters before you receive any call from a private debt collector. Before you receive any call about paying your unpaid taxes, you should first receive a letter from the IRS. That letter will include the name of the pri-

Fair Debt Collection Practices The private debt collectors must follow the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). This includes, but is not limited to: a) Only contacting individuals during certain hours. The FDCPA prohibits

BY THE GWAAR LEGAL SERVICES TEAM

telephone calls outside of 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. local time. b) Not telephoning or engaging any person in telephone conversation repeatedly or continuously. The FDCPA prohibits private debt collectors from annoying, abusing, or harassing anyone including using abusive or profane language. c) Not threatening arrest or legal action. The FDCPA does not allow a debt collector to threaten action unless the law permits the action and the debt collector actually intends to take the action. d) Not using deceit to collect a debt. The FDCPA prohibits misrepresenting the debt or using deception to collect the debt, including a debt collector’s misrepresentation that he or she is an attorney or law enforcement officer. e) Not contacting third parties about the debt. The FDCPA does not authorize debt collectors to communicate about the debt with third parties other than the taxpayer’s representative. • Know which debt collectors the IRS has contracted with to collect the unpaid tax debt. The IRS has only contracted with the following four debt collection firm. They are: Conserve of Fairport, NY; Pioneer of Horseheads, NY; Performant of Livermore, CA and CBE Group of Cedar Falls, IA. The IRS has not authorized any other private debt collector to attempt to collect delinquent taxes. Contact the IRS. If in doubt, check IRS.gov or call the IRS at 800-829-1040 for more information.

Health beneﬁts of purple vegetables, fruits BY DAWN SARGENT, AGING UNIT SUPERVISOR ADRC OF NORTHWEST WISCONSIN

Vegetable and fruit intake is important for the body. Green, red, yellow and orange vegetables and fruits are easily found at your local market or grocery store. Do you know the efficacy and benefits of purple vegetables and fruits? When it comes to food, the color purple represents high health benefits. Purple vegetables and fruits are rich in substances that are necessary and provide enormous benefits for your health. Purple fruits and vegetables have a high content of Anthocyanin. This is the pigment that gives red-purple color in vegetables, fruits, flowers and plants. Anthocyanin has been used as a component of traditional medications believed to enhance vision at night. As advances have been made in the field of food science, Anthocyanins are now also known to treat various diseases such as cancer, diabetes and heart attacks. It also has an effect as an anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and prevents diabetes, prevents premature aging, improves memory, is useful for treating hair and skin conditions, protects the heart and is beneficial for mental health.

Yard Sale Greatest Hits: Price these items right, and they’ll go fast BY JEFF YEAGER, AARP

Costume jewelry Whether they’re in the market for some inexpensive bling or they think they’ve literally discovered a diamond in the rough, yard sale shoppers love to snatch up costume jewelry if it’s nicely displayed and priced to sell. Price simple pieces at a couple of dollars and nicer jewelry a little higher to allow for negotiating. ‘Like-new’ items Received a gift that doesn’t suit your fancy? Leave it in the original packaging and sell it at your next tag sale. Savvy shoppers are always on the lookout for likenew items they can give as gifts without the recipient being the wiser. Price like-new items at less than 50 percent of their original price to sell quickly. Clothing by the bag Sometimes it can be difficult to unload used apparel at a yard sale. Offer shoppers the option of filling a grocery bag with the clothing of their choice for the flat bargain price of $10 or so. It’s a great way to get rid of whatever is left near the end of the day. Vinyl records There’s a brisk market for these albums, but prices vary greatly by recording, artist and condition. Before you set out a box of your old LPs, research their value online to make sure you’re not selling your collection short. Tools Most used hand and garden tools perform as well as new ones, and some are even considered collectibles. Toolboxes – particularly sturdy older boxes made of steel – are usually an easy sell if your sale attracts the DIY crowd. My friend recently sold a three-piece upright chest-style toolbox for $150 at a yard sale. Americana’ home décor Watch a couple of episodes of the popular cable TV show American Pickers to get an idea of what’s hot when it comes to cashing in on eclectic items for home decorating Americana-style. Vintage metal advertising signs – a popular wall hanging among Americana enthusiasts – can fetch from a few dollars to a few hundred dollars or more. Books Rather than trying to sell books individually, price stacks of similar ones for $5-$10 and sell them by the lot. This works particularly well for children’s books, since kids tend to be a little less discriminating in their choice of literature. Bottled water and soft drinks Even if nobody is interested in buying your stuff, you can net some extra cash if you have an ice chest full of cold drinks waiting for thirsty shoppers on a hot summer day. Price them at $1 or $1.50 each.

½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper 2 teaspoons pine nuts, toasted (see Tip) ½ cup crumbled feta, (optional) Directions: 1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook pasta until tender, 8 to 10 minutes or according to package directions. 2. Meanwhile, cook beef, garlic and fennel seeds in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until the beef is browned, about 3 minutes. 3. Add eggplant and oil; cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant browns, about 5 minutes. 4. Add tomato sauce and wine; cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce

thickens, about 10 minutes. 5. Stir in oregano, salt and pepper. 6. Drain the pasta; serve topped with the sauce and sprinkled with pine nuts and feta, if using. Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare the sauce (Step 2); cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Tip: To toast pine nuts, cook in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

Smoking and Public Housing BY THE GWAAR LEGAL SERVICES TEAM GREATER WISCONSIN AGENCY ON AGING RESOURCES

The federal rule requiring all public housing units to be smoke-free inside and within 25 feet of buildings became effective February 3, 2017. The rule, however, gives housing agencies 18 months to implement. This means that if smoking is still taking place, a housing agency will not violate the rule until August 4, 2018.

Applies to only Public Housing The smoke-free rule only applies to public housing. The individual leases govern any smoking rules for people living in privately-run residences with their Section 8 vouchers.

Difference between Public Housing and Section 8 Vouchers Many people confuse public housing with the Section 8 voucher program. Public housing buildings are owned and operated by the local Housing Authority (HA), which are overseen by Public Housing Agencies (PHAs). Buildings where people use Section 8 Vouchers (sometimes referred to as just “Section 8” or “subsidized” housing), on the other

hand, are typically owned by individual landlords or corporations. This is an important distinction because the smoking ban only applies to those buildings owned by the housing authority.

Smoking Rights in Section 8 Voucher Housing If you live in a private residence with your Section 8 voucher and have a problem with either a) being able to smoke in your unit, or b) someone else smoking, you first need to obtain a copy of your lease. There are several sections within your lease that will determine whether you have rights and if those rights have been violated. For example, you may have a specific smoking clause, or you may have applicable “use and enjoyment” clauses or “reasonable accommodations” clauses. An Elder Benefits Specialist can help review the type of housing you are in and your lease agreement to see what actions, if any, can be taken to address your concerns.

TURTLE LAKE— Maddie Duncan was the star of the show in the Pirates’ 7-1 win over Turtle Lake/Clayton on Friday night. She racked up three hits and four RBIs on the night, including a second-inning bullet over the centerfield fence that gave Grantsburg an early 2-0 lead and set the tone for the rest of the game. With the win, the Pirates claim the Regional championship for the 15th time in 16 years, and the 12th consecutive title. They will now head into Sectional play and travel to Phillips on Tuesday (May 30) to face the number one seeded Loggers. The first inning was

Kern, Webster (300 meter hurdles), and Andrew Ruiz, Webster (800 meter run). From Grantsburg, Coaches Brad Nelson and Kim Hallberg: “We are excited to send three boys to the State meet. John Chenal is advancing in shot put and high jump. He competed at State last year in shot put and placed fifth, so we are looking forward to another successful performance. Walker Louis is advancing in discus and Kyle Fagnan is advancing in the 100 meter dash. We had some other athletes that came close, but we had a very solid performance for a sectional meet.” (Coach Nelson) “We were thrilled with the outcome of the Sectional track meet! Our athletes came ready. We had nine athletes make it to state and many others that competed created a new PR for their event. We are so proud of all of our athletes and especially those who qualified for state.” (Coach Hallberg) Coach Koball, Siren: “Siren was blessed to bring five incredible people to Colfax.

WEBSTER—The Webster Tigers came up short in their bid for an undefeated West Lakeland Conference baseball season as the Unity Eagles handed the Tigers an 8-2 defeat last Thursday. “The Championship (West Lakeland) feels good,” expressed Webster Coach Jarrod Washburn. “We just didn’t play well tonight. We made some mistakes against a really good team. We sort of shot ourselves in the foot.” Austin Donahue got things going for the Eagles right from the get-go as he singled, but was caught in a rundown.

Dragons win big in ﬁrst round baseball action BY GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS

SIREN—The Siren Dragons baseball team made a huge first step in their current program by defeating the Winter Warriors 20-1 in round one of the WIAA Division 4 playoffs last Thursday. “We wanted to win a playoff game and play at home,” said an excited Dragon Coach Jon Ruud. “We’ve faced a lot of different pitchers this year. It’s tough to see all the big switches and changes between these pitchers.” The Dragons and pitcher Bailey Mangen put down the Warriors one-two-three in the top of the first. Siren didn’t wait to start the action as they put in seven runs in the bottom of the first inning. Bailey Mangen singled, stole second and third bases, and scored on a Warrior error. Jordan Webster walked and stole second. Brady Mangen walked. With one out, Ben Lemieux got on via fielders choice. Then, there were four consecutive singles: Tanner Buck, Max Lindquist, Xander Pinero and Breck Mangen. Once again, the Dragons held the Warriors without a hit or run in the second.

In the top of the fifth with Grantsburg up 2-0, SCF added one. A hit batsman, a single, stolen bases and a passed ball enabled one run to score. In the following inning, the Saints knotted the score at two with two Grantsburg errors and a sac fly. From then on, Grantsburg pitching held the Saints with no additional runs. The Pirates added four in their half of the fifth. With one out, David Nelson singled. Then after another out, Wedin and Anderson both singled. Bryce Roufs walked. Austin Casey singled in the two remaining runs. Wedin and Anderson were both two for two at the plate. Casey tallied two RBIs, going one for three. Ricky Clark went six innings, giving up two walks, but striking out nine. Wedin finished in relief, walking one and striking out one. The Pirates will have played at Unity on Tuesday, with hopes of advancing on Wednesday against either Cumberland or Luck/Frederic.

The Pirates started off strong, getting five in their half of the first inning. Britta Roufs singled. MacKenna Johnson walked. Jordyn McKenzie followed with a three-run blast. Emma Quimby got on via an error. Maddie Duncan walked. Both runners moved up on a ground out to first and scored on a Rachel Glover single. After a scoreless Shell Lake second, the Pirates added an-

other run in their part of the inning. With one out, Roufs walked, moved up on a ground out to first and scored on a McKenzie single. Both teams went silent in the third inning. In the fourth, the Lakers came up with three runs. Two walks, an error, a single, a ground out and another single accounted for the runs. But, that was all the Lakers were going to score. Four Pirate pitchers contributed to the win: Cassidy Lee, MacKenzie Johnson, Rylee Hoffman and Cassidy Chenal. They walked seven and struck out one, but

caused the Shell Lake batters to hit right at someone. The Pirates put the finishing touches on the Lakers with two in the sixth. Rachel Glover opened the inning with a double and went to third on a wild pitch. A ground out enabled her to score. Roufs got on via a single and came around on an error by Shell Lake to score. Roufs and McKenzie were both three for four at the plate in this game. McKenzie had four RBIs. Rachel Glover was two for three with two RBIs to her credit.

WEBSTER—“This game was suspended last week and we finished it this week,” said Pirate Coach Pete Johnson, following an 11-3 loss to the Webster Tigers. Rain had stopped the game in the bottom of the fourth inning and was suspended until last Wednesday. “We started today with a 1-2 score. A missed fly ball opened the floodgates for a big inning and that was it.” Last week, in the beginning of this game, Webster scored once in the first. With two out, Jack Washburn singled, stole both second and third bases, and scored on a Pirate error. Grantsburg knotted the game in the third inning. David Nelson walked to open the inning, moved up on a hit batsman, and came home on a ground out to first. The Tigers put one across in the third inning. With one out, Trenton Wols walked, moved to third on a Washburn double and scored on a wild pitch. After a scoreless fourth for the Pirates and to this point a scoreless fourth for the Tigers, the rains came and the game was suspended. Continuing on Wednesday, Webster scored four in the fourth. Trevor Gustafson singled. Wols walked. Washburn hit a two-run double. Hunter Gustafson followed with a double and Brad Sigfrids hit a single. Four more Tiger runs were accounted for in the fifth inning of play. Austin Spafford and Coleton Peterson both singled. Matt Buffington got on via a fielders choice, Peterson out at second. T.

Webster finished the scoring in the sixth on a single by Austin Spafford and a double by Tallon Parent. Grantsburg was held to two hits, a single and a double. Webster had 12 hits with Jack Washburn going three for four, three RBIs, and Trevor Gustafson was two for four. Trenton Wols had two RBIs. Washburn pitched for Webster, going six innings, walking three and striking out eight.

Grantsburg scored in the top of the first. With one out, Luke Anderson singled and Bryce Roufs doubled him home. On a C/W error, Roufs came home and the Pirates were up 2-0. C/W came back with three in their half of the first. A single, a Pirate error and a double got two across.

his experience there will pay huge dividends for his future. We’ve all seen first hand the magic and disappointment of sectionals, and Gavyn took away a great day of learning to build upon for years to come. “Jade Horstman made finals in the triple jump, but came up fifth, short of qualifying for state by less than seven inches. Tough, but again, another brick in her foundation for a great junior year ahead. “Abby Kosloski ran into some health issues this week, but pulled through to make opening height in the high jump, but that was all she could muster. She was a great teammate though. “Noah Koball qualified for state with a third place throw in the discus of 134’1”, a PR for him. He will be making his first trip to state this season. I can’t lie, but having the chance to take my son to the state track meet, as a father and a coach, is an incredible experience I will not forget. I have a great amount of pride in each person I have coached, but I would be lying if I didn’t say this is a bit sweeter than most. Mr. Larson worked his magic again with Noah, and I am grateful for having him as a coach here in Siren. “Finally, and certainly not least, Tanner Lee took the disappointment of Monday’s regional meet and turned it into pure magic. Tanner’s throw of 48’ 1 1/2” blew past Delane Emery’s mark of 47’ 8

1/2” from 2003 to set a new Dragon record! It was also good enough for third place and a trip to LaCrosse. Tanner pulled it all together and threw for his PR and a school record. This was truly an amazing way to finish off Tanner’s career as a Dragon, but don’t stop the press there, we have another week left and we all know that the magic of LaCrosse has yet to be seen with Tanner.” Webster Coach Roy Ward says, “Thursday’s meet at Colfax was a great one for many of the Tigers. The streak

continues. I never have left the Sectional meet feeling like all the athletes I hoped would make it to State did. I guess that is partly due to believing that our athletes are capable of anything. As a coach, you also fall in love with the kids you coach and want them to have a great experience. For those that are fortunate enough to compete at the State meet in LaCrosse, it doesn’t get any better than that in high school sports. The atmosphere at the state meet is like the Superbowl. “Okay, now for what you have been waiting for! Austin (Moser) threw his way into the State meet. His personal best discus throw of 142-1 earned him a second place. Sadie (Koelz) claimed the Sectional Champion title in the pole vault. She jumped 10-0 and almost cleared 10-4 to tie the meet record. Her sidekick Jeni (Petersen) will be joining her. She had me nervous using three attempts at 9-0. Thankfully, she made it on her third attempt and was able to clear 9-3 on her first attempt clinching a position at State. She finished the meet with a personal best, clearing 9-6. “The boys 4x800, Andrew (Ruiz), Joey (Formanek), Mason (Schaaf) and Hunter (Erickson) won the event by four seconds with a season best time of 8:19.86.

Tanner Lee was shocked when he found out he threw for a new Siren school record.

We are seeded fourth going into the State meet and the teams in front of us are all within a half of a second. It should make for an exciting race at State. “The boys team were Sectional champs by one point. It sure feels nice to win by a point vs losing by one! It helps make all the kids on the team feel important. Even if they didn’t score a point, they made their teammates better. The last time we won a Sectional

scoring Britta Roufs. Glover singled and Duncan hit a double to bring in two more runs giving the Pirates a 5-0 lead. TL/C scored a run in their half of the inning to make it a 5-1 game. The Pirate defense stepped up and kept TL/C in check with some amazing catches and athletic plays that kept their base runners on their heals. In the fifth inning, McKenzie sealed the win when she hit a beauty over the fence to go up 6-1. Emma Quimby singled and would score on another double by Duncan to give the Pirates a 7-1 lead. Cassidy Lee started in the circle and pitched four and a half innings. Rylee Hoffman came in during the fifth inning and Cassidy Chenal stepped into the circle in the seventh inning to finish up the game. Lee gets the win. The Pirates scored seven runs on nine hits. Their record is now 20-6 for the season, 12-1 in conference play.

CONTRACTORS: Look out for scams CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2

Homeowners should research trusted local contractors. Ask for references from friends, family members and co-workers, and contact DATCP’s Consumer Protection Hotline (800422-7128) to find out about complaints against particular businesses.

‘Storm chaser’ law

Wisconsin’s “Storm Chaser Law” gives DATCP enforcement tools to protect consumers and honest businesses alike by helping prevent insurance fraud. Highlights of the law include: • Contractors cannot promise to pay all or some of a property insurance deductible. • Contractors cannot represent or negotiate with the customer’s insurer on behalf of the customer. The contractor can, with the consent of the customer, discuss damages and costs associated with the repairs with the insurer. • Before entering into a contract with a customer, the contractor must give the customer a questionnaire to determine whether the work requested is related to an insurance claim. • Customers have a right to cancel the contract within three business days of being notified that their insurer has denied all or any part of the claim for work. Contractors must notify customers of this right.

More storm damage tips

Additional consumer protection tips for homeowners with storm dam-

age are: • Ask contractors if they are subcontracting your job. If they are, find out who the subcontractor will be and check them out as well. • Get lien waivers from anyone you pay for home repairs. Lien waivers protect you if the person collecting the money does not pay the suppliers or workers. • Get a written contract with a start and completion date and warranty information. Also, make certain that the contract states exactly what work is to be done and what materials are to be used. Never rely on a verbal commitment. • Have someone watch the work being done. Check with your local building inspector to see if the work requires a permit. Make sure an inspector visits the job site before you make a final payment. • Request a copy of the contractor’s certificate of liability insurance. • Local door-to-door solicitation rules vary by municipality, and there are legitimate businesses that may knock on your door with a sales pitch. A good practice to follow is to request a business representative’s permit to operate if your municipality has a door-to-door sales ordinance. For additional information or to file a complaint, visit the Consumer Protection Bureau at datcp.wisconsin. gov, send an e-mail to datcphotline@ wisconsin.gov or call the Consumer Protection Hotline toll-free at 1-800422-7128.

BC law enforcement beneﬁts from Sheriff’s ﬂying interest SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR

BURNETT COUNTY— A particular interest of Sheriff Ron Wilhelm’s is a vital asset to the Burnett County law enforcement. During his years at the University of Wisconsin-Superior in the early nineties, Wilhelm repeatedly drove past runways and watched planes lift and land while he was on his way to class. While doing so, he would say to himself, “Man, I want to learn how to fly.” So, he did. Wilhelm began working at the Burnett County Sheriff’s Department in 1992 and by 1994, was a licensed pilot. And, while this county may feel that it is standard to have a pilot working on the police force, it is not. While every county has the ability to call in reinforcements to assist with people and property searches, not every county has a Sheriff that can walk out of the office and into a plane to conduct the search himself. Wilhelm has flown flying a Cessna 150 for over twenty years. The plane belongs to Dave Sandberg of Grantsburg. Sandberg left Burnett County several years ago and works on an airline in Alaska. A Cessna 150 generally has a wingspan of 30 feet and due to its size and capabilities, is not ideal for the mountainous terrain of Alaska. Sandberg, a friend of Wilhelm’s, has entrusted the Sheriff and allows for his plane to be used for law enforcement. The Sheriff stated that the plane serves as a “cost-effective” tool for the county.

“It saves man hours and we can eliminate acres and acres of land in much less time,” he said. The Sheriff noted that due to the usage of an aircraft, he and Detective Tracy Finch were able to save the lives of two canoeists several years ago on the St. Croix River. While in the air, Finch spotted the pair and they were then saved from freezing temperatures. While the aircraft is used mainly for searches, the Sheriff is able to utilize his skill set to attend meetings further away in the State and spend less on fuel. When it comes to the financial aspect, the plane is required to be insured and while the county covers part, the Sheriff fronts the majority of the bill with his own policy. On a even more generous note, the Sheriff generally only hands in a gas receipt when he travels to places such as Madison or Door County. “When I go on a trip that’s for the county, I’ll turn in a gas receipt. But if I’m up there looking for stolen property or spending minimal amount of time in the air, I rarely turn one in,” he said. The county also benefits from being able to gain quick access to other organization’s aircrafts, like the DNR who have an aircraft equipped with thermal imaging. He added, “The resources are there and we use them.” The Sheriff hopes more individuals in law enforcement will gain a pilot’s license, “I’m always encouraging people to get involved in aviation,” he said. “It’s just another tool in the toolbox.”

While in high sschool and as the youngest a and last child at home, Norm ma helped her mother run tthe family farm when her ffather became ill from tuberculosis. Norma graduated from Webster High School. When the opportunity arose in 1942, Norma headed for “the big city” to work the third shift at Honeywell. Norma loved to tell the story of how she met and married her forever love, Wesley Clyde Maurer. Norma was bowling with her sister Bess at an alley in Minneapolis when Wes, looking sharp in his Marine uniform, caught the attention of this pretty lady. Norma claimed that she was “a flirt” and “a lousy bowler,” but he asked her for a date. Wes and Norma would not allow a world war and Wes’ service as a Marine pilot keep them apart. Norma and Wes married on September 25, 1943 and began their life together in San Diego, CA. Norma contributed to the war effort as a welder – she had a steady hand. After World War II, they returned to Minnesota, ultimately making their home in Brooklyn Center. There was a brief interruption for another war when Wes was called up for the Korean War.

Never idle, they tended a large garden, cross-country skied and were active members of the Webster First Baptist Church, Awana and the Gideons. An avid reader, there was always a variety of books at Norma’s chairside. Surviving are four sons: Gregory, David (Pamela), Steven (Joanne) and Clayton (Joyce); 11 grandchildren; 19 great-grandchildren, with another on the way.

NEWSLINE $50 million bond set in forced abortion attempt

APPLETON (AP) — A judge in Outagamie County has set $50 million bond for a man accused of trying to cause his girlfriend to miscarry her child nearly a decade ago. The former Kaukauna man forfeited a $750,000 bond when he disappeared in January, 2008. He was found in January of this year in New York and has now been returned to Appleton to face nine charges, including attempted first-degree intentional homicide of an unborn child. WLUK-TV reports Manishkumar Patel was in Outagamie County Circuit Court Tuesday when the new bond was set. He is due back in court June 1.
