State Street to retain angled parking in resurface project

By JARAD JARMON Jersey County Journal Angled parking on State Street in Jerseyville was saved — at least for the time being.

During their meeting Tuesday, Jan. 28, Jerseyville City Council members authorized Jerseyville Public Works Director Bob Manns to submit a written response to the Illinois Department of Transportation to proceed with the US 67 resurfacing project and to maintain the current striping plan for the segment of the project from Carpenter Street north to Spruce Street.

According to Jerseyville city leaders, the street has been in dire need of repair. Road cores taken from the street indicated to officials that the road’s life cycle had run its course.

The resurfacing project, set to start this year, includes the mulling and resurfacing of an approximately 5-mile stretch of road, notably going through State Street, a major business corridor in Jerseyville. The IDOT project is planned to run from Crystal Lake Road north to Fulkerson Drive.

There was general support and excitement regarding the resurfacing of State Street, but contention arose when considerations were made to re-stripe the downtown corridor to include a bi-directional lane with parallel parking concept.

The Illinois Department of Transportation indicated to Jerseyville that this was a safer option than the current striping in the city, Bob Manns, Jerseyville public works director, said. Also too, this lane concept is said to be more efficient, better alleviating traffic congestion along the strip.

However, this plan would’ve removed a large portion of the angled parking on along the strip — a point business owners in the area took issue with.

Business owners and some residents along State Street pushed back against the idea in a town hall meeting Thursday, Jan. 23.

Many argued that this would kill business on the street — a street they argued already has too little parking.

Beth Bear, Jersey County Business Association director, said the association identified 62 building and business owners in the downtown corridor and sought to gauge their opinions on the matter. Of those 62, 54 were successfully contacted. Of that group, 28 were opposed to the idea, six were neutral and the remaining did not want to comment on the matter.

During the informational town hall, Manns said that the city is already looking to expand the parking options along the corridor pointing to the satellite parking lots along the strip as well as plans to have more lots, as is the current plan for the city.

It was also stressed by those opposed to the idea that customer behavior is volatile.

Business owners said customers will simply decide against going into a store sometimes if there is no parking available next to the storefront.

The point was made that among the customer base for some of these businesses, there are older individuals who can’t and won’t walk long distances to go to a particular store.

Speaking on safety, Manns said there was a noticeable difference in the accidents on (See, PROJECT, A2)

Interest expressed in selling marijuana in Grafton

By JARAD JARMON Jersey County Journal What seemed unlikely to some officials in Grafton appears to be more likely than not.

Grafton Mayor Rick Eberlin announced at a Grafton City Council meeting Tuesday, Jan. 21, that “serious” interest has been expressed in bringing a new industry — or at least newly legal industry — to the city: marijuana.

“The people are extremely, extremely serious,” Eberlin said. “They have got the money lined up.”

A 3-percent tax on cannabis sales was established in Grafton ahead of an Oct. 1 deadline to establish regulations on cannabis, following a council vote. The tax is imposed upon all who are engaged in the business of selling cannabis other than medical cannabis. The rate will be at 3 percent of the gross receipts from these sales made in the course of that business.

At the time it was first presented, the Grafton city leaders said the likelihood that there would be interest in establishing a business in Grafton was slim, noting the steep startup costs associated with being licensed to sell.

“I never dreamt that a community as small as Grafton would have the population that would support something like that,” Eberlin said. “…It was a shock to me.”

It appears there is interest, though, in bringing the business to town. Still in its

infancy, the intent is to have a business that sells marijuana. Eberlin said interest specifically in a “bakery” was raised in conversations with the potential business owner. Whether the business would be selling recreational, medicinal marijuana or a combination of the two is unclear.

Despite accepting a cannabis sales tax, city leaders still can deny business licenses related to the sale of marijuana in the city.

Eberlin said he probably would not support the sale of recreational-use marijuana, but stressed he would have to hear more about the intent for the business and from council members and local police on the issue.

As far as how the community would react, Eberlin said it could be 50/50.

“I think it would be fairly split,” Eberlin said.

It comes down to how the city and its residents want to be seen, Eberlin said.

“What does Grafton want to be known as,” he said. “Right now, we are a familyfriendly town.”

The Sky Tour, eagle watching events, the ice skating rink and the water park were listed as examples of the family-friendly activities in the city.

“Is it going to be a net positive for Grafton,” Eberlin asked.

He said there are too many unknowns at this time to make a definitive stance on this.

“We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it,” he said.

Area Special Olympics athletes got to boogie

By JARAD JARMON Jersey County Journal For local Special Olympics athletes, Friday, Jan. 24, was not a day for the games but one to celebrate each other along with taking time to dance for this year’s Winter Dance at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Jerseyville.

The room was full with laughter, live music and excitement trying out different silly accessories for the photo booth.

This was the second year for the dance, Tammy Powell, an organizer for dance, said.

“We had one last January.

It was about half this size, so it has grown,” Powell said.

There was initially concern the snowy conditions were going to deter people, but as the night went along, more and more people filled the event space.

City of Grafton is suing DeSherlia Marina

By JARAD JARMON Jersey County Journal The clash between the City of Grafton and DeSherlia Marina Management has raged on in one facet or another for years in the courtroom, and at the Grafton City Council meeting Tuesday, Jan. 21, the two parties’ differences were reignited.

Ahead of a heated exchange between the Grafton City Mayor Rick Eberlin and Alderman Jim Spencer on the matter, the Grafton City Council members, except for Spencer, voted to sue DeSherlia Marina Management regarding various differences the two parties have had over the years.

Specifically, the aldermen and women voted to affirm the use of litigation against DeSherlia.

The resolution accepted at the council meeting says the goal is “to bring resolution to the many issues caused by DeSherlia Marina Management.”

Along with this, the resolution also makes numerous assertions against DeSherlia Marina Management, defending the decision to pursue litigation against the Grafton business.

The resolution approved by the city council states: Q The City of Grafton finds that there are multiple unresolved breaches of the contract committed by DeSherlia Marina Management regarding the Grafton Marina Lease Agreement, dated August 16, 2002.

Q The City of Grafton and its engineer have determined that in the process of the Marina construction DeSherlia Marina Management violated the terms of their PUD (Planned Unit Development) and agreement thus causing multiple problems.

Q The City of Grafton has found that slip rental fees/payments due from DeSherlia Marina Management beginning in 2006 were not paid until 2014 and did not accurately reflect the amount required in the agreement, thus depriving the City of approximately $200,000.

Q The City of Grafton finds that DeSherlia Marina Management has refused to abide by the Marina Inspection Agreement, requiring annual inspections, dated October 27, 2004 exposing the city, boaters and visitors to an increased risk of injury and financial liability.

“Let this matter be resolved in the court system.”

Jim Schrempf Grafton's corporate council

Q The State of Illinois grant administrator for the original Big P Grant (Boater’s Infrastructure Grant Program) awarded to the City and administered through Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) has determined through two inspections (in 2012 and 2019) that DeSherlia Marina Management is non-compliant with the terms of the said grant and has provided false information to said agency to avoid making repairs, thus putting the grantee, the City of Grafton, at potential financial risks in excess of $500,000.

Q The State of Illinois grant administrator and legal counsel for the Oslad/ Scenic Byways Grant, administered through IDOT (Illinois Department of Transportation), has communicated to the city that DeSherlia Marina Management is non-compliant regarding the requirements of said grant and that a $53,000 over-payment paid by the city was actually the responsibility of DeSherlia Marina Management and should be repaid by DeSherlia Marina Management to the City of Grafton.

Q The State of Illinois grant administrator for the IDJD/EDI Grant (Housing and Urban Development/Economic Development Incentive) has communicated to the City that DeSherlia Marina Management illegally used properties constructed with said grant monies and belonging to the City of Grafton as collateral on a $1.4 million loan, and DeSherlia Marina Management still claims ownership of said properties and putting the city at risk of repayment of approximately $192,000.

Q The City of Grafton, the lessor of the Marina, has witnessed and been informed of numerous violations committed by DeSherlia Marina Management, the lessee, regarding dredging permits (U.S. Corps of Engineers), storage of hazardous chemicals (Illinois Environmental Protection Agency) and the impermissible placement of stone blocks in the floodway (IDNR).

Q The City of Grafton, its engineer and its legal representatives have determined that DeSherlia Marina Management has placed a shed and fence in the City of Grafton public right-of-way in violation of the state law, the city’s building and zoning codes and its flood plain ordinance.

Q IDOT Field Engineers, have communicated to the City of Grafton that repayment of engineering fees (approximately $25,000) for the Bike Trail would be demanded of the City of Grafton if the Bike Trail is not completed through the marina.

Q A 2008 audit conducted by Hughes and Associates identified unexplained costs pertaining to the construction of the marina in excess of $300,000 and directed the City of Grafton to rectify those audit findings which the City of Grafton has not been able to complete.

JERSEY COUNTY JOURNAL

Major rehab of I-255 begins this weekend Public urged to begin planning alternate routes The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) was joined by the Illinois State Police to remind the public that the first phase of repairs to a crumbling section of Interstate 255 will begin at 12:01 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 1. The project, one of the first under Gov. JB Pritzker’s Rebuild Illinois capital program, will require a full closure of I-255 in both directions between Interstate 64 and Interstate 55/70 for approximately five months.

“While we are eager to start working on I-255, we need the public’s help to truly make this project a success,” said Acting Illinois Transportation Secretary Omer Osman. “If you rely on I-255 or regularly drive in the nearby area, start thinking about other routes. Expect longer travel times, especially the first few days.

“Working together, we will build a new-and-improved I-255 that makes travel safer and more reliable for many years to come.”

While Interstates 55/70 and 64 will be the marked detour, depending on direction of travel, the following alternate routes are recommended: Illinois 3, Illinois 15, Illinois 157, Illinois 158,

Illinois 159 and Illinois 161. Public transportation and traveling during off-peak hours are encouraged as well.

“The Illinois State Police continues to work closely with IDOT to ensure the safety of all workers, the motoring public and state troopers who patrol the highways so they’re able to safely respond to calls for service in a timely manner,” Lt. Christy White said.

Closing I-255 completely means the project can be done quicker, cheaper and safer.

By removing traffic from I-255, the necessary repairs can be completed in one construction season instead of the four years it would take if construction was staged.

Additionally, the project will cost $64 million, or about $14 million less than completing the work in multiple phases. The safety risk to workers and motorists is eliminated by removing live traffic from an active construction site.

A project webpage with maps and fact sheets can be viewed by clicking here or visiting idot.illinois.gov.

The overall project consists of rehabilitating and resurfacing approximately 7 miles of I-255 from Collinsville Road to Illinois 15 in two sections separated by I-64, with significant bridge repairs, safety improvements and drainage upgrades.

Once the section north of I-64 is finished this summer, construction will shift to the section between I-64 and Illinois 15, again requiring a full closure of the work zone in both directions for approximately five months.

The entire project is expected to conclude in late November.

Due to lack of investment, I-255 is notorious for being one of the worst roads in the state. Most of the pavement dates back to when the interstate was built in the 1980s. Emergency repairs that inconvenience motorists are frequent because of multiple pavement failures and large potholes.

Gov. Pritzker’s historic and bipartisan Rebuild Illinois capital program is investing $33.2 billion into the state’s aging transportation system, creating jobs and promoting economic growth. Rebuild Illinois is not only the largest capital program in state history, but also the first one that touches all modes of Illinois transportation: roads and bridges, transit, waterways, freight and passenger rail, aviation, and bicycle and pedestrian accommodations.

TOYS FOR TOTS COMMANDERS AWARD WINNER ANNOUNCED

Webb Cunningham, Toys for Tots Area Coordinator of Jersey, Greene, Calhoun, North Macoupin and the Southwestern School District presents the Commanders Award to Frank Dewitt, Chairman of the Board of Deacons, Kane Baptist Church, for their generous contribution and assistance given to the 2019 Toys for Tots Campaign. “Your generosity assisted the Marine Corps League, Robert Windle Detachment #1031, in providing toys to 1,362 less fortunate children in our service area,” Cunningham said. The Commanders Award reads in part, “Your generous contributions have enabled the Marine Corps to bring the joy of Christmas and send a message of hope to America’s less fortunate children.”

Grafton (Continued from A1) Q The above mentioned issues have existed for a number of years and previous administrations and this administration have negotiated with DeSherlia Marina Management to resolve those issues, but have been continually frustrated by DeSherlia Marina Managements, which time after time has backed out of possible solutions, thus creating a continuing contentious atmosphere between the City and DeSherlia Marina Management.

Q This administration’s purpose is two-fold in that; we honor and uphold our sworn oath of office and that we seek that DeSherlia Marina Management should simply adhere to and comply with all terms and requirements of all contracts, leases, agreements, grants, permits, ordinances and codes pertaining to DeSherlia Marina Management.

Following the reading of the motion, Spencer, the only one of the aldermen and women present to vote “no”

on the resolution, spoke out against the move, arguing that many of the arguments listed in the resolution were inaccurate.

“Well half of that is a pack of lies,” Spencer said.

Spencer said the mayor has wasted time and money of the city’s on this feud. “$12,000 just in the past month that you have pissed away,” he said.

Eberlin noted that the city has been a defendant in past litigation with the marina business.

“How many years in the past has the City of Grafton been the defendant,” Eberlin asked. “This is a tactic that has gone on far too long.”

Spencer said the city is picking favorites among businesses, pointing to permits said to have not been given to other businesses in the city during their construction or expansion.

“I just don’t like bullies, and you are bully,” Spencer said to Eberlin.

“That was a suit that Mr. Spencer brought on the city: that I was a bully,” Eberlin

responded. “That suit was dismissed without cause.”

Eberlin and others at the council meeting such as Alderman Peter Allen argued this was not an issue regarding other businesses but was an issue specifically with the city and DeSherlia Marina Management.

At the height of the back and forth between Spencer and Eberlin, Jim Schrempf, the city’s corporate council advised and reiterated that the two should avoid using social media to convince one side or the other on the issue and leave it to the courts.

“Let this matter be resolved in the court system,” Schrempf said.

Notably, Schrempf will not be representing the city in this litigation. Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C., will be representing the city instead.

Eberlin said outside council was hired because there was potential that Schrempf’s firm would be called as a witness.

Eberlin said they are not kicking the can down the

road on this issue. The relationship between the city and DeSherlia Marina Management has been a point of contention for approximately a decade.

“It never started under this administration,” Eberlin said.

“This is going to be decided during this administration,” he said.

Also during the meeting: Q The recommendation of Bonna Downey, Tom Wright, Gloria Shidler, Ken Pheiffer, Ben Allen and Jack Mooney to the Historical Business District Committee was approved.

Q It was announced that Grafton’s Fourth of July festivities will be scheduled for July 2.

Q A letter of recommendation was presented to the Grafton City Council for the construction award of the Grafton Visitors’ Center Museum addition from John A. Shortal, Architect, Ltd. The addition will not include the installation of solar panels at the expense of the inside of the museum.

Project (Continued from A1) State Street where there is no bi-directional lane in comparison to a section of State Street where there is one.

Those in the audience argued the bi-directional lane does not ensure safety, though. Bear argued the addition of a bi-directional would prove less safe to pedestrians.

“If we are moving our parking off-site and further away from our businesses, then we are also planning for increased foot traffic in the downtown area,” Bear said.

“If we are adding that bidirectional turn lane, then we adding an additional lane of traffic for people to have to cross… That additional lane of traffic is a hinderance to pedestrians.”

Ultimately, the city decided against this new concept.

“I appreciate the council’s decision on this,” Brad Tonsor, a vocal opponenet of the move, said.

It was stressed, however, that this project was only a band-aid. When complete reconstruction, which includes tearing up the base and surface level of the road, is required, angled parking is not on the table. Manns said current IDOT regulations do not allow for angled parking.

“Whether that band-aid last five, 10 or 15 years or however many years; when that day comes and they do complete reconstruction, there is no more angled parking in the City of Jerseyville,” Manns said.

In lieu of this, business owners and city officials agreed discussion surrounding parking along the city’s downtown corridor must continue to ensure the city is prepared.

“This should not be the end of our conversation about parking,” Bear said. “It is a reprieve, but we still have issues we need to talk about.”

Also during the meeting Tuesday, a Jerseyville resident, John Gajewski, a building surveyor specializing historic preservation, made a proposition to save the old Moose Lodge building.

“Since I moved here, I admired the building, and I can see its huge potential as an asset in the community,” Gajewski, owner at GB Building & Project Consultancy, LLC, said.

At their last meeting, Jerseyville City Council OK’d

the use of tax increment financing (TIF) district funds to purchase a vacant lot located at the 120 East Pearl where the Jerseyville Moose Lodge building resides.

The city will be purchasing the lot for $189,000 following the demolition of the building. They will be buying it as a lot — gravel-ready, Jerseyville Mayor Bill Russell said. The plan is to use the lot as more off-street parking for Jerseyville’s main strip, based on of discussions with local business around the property.

After hearing of the plans for the building, Gajewski said he has been working quickly and effectively to get together a group of people that can take on the building.

Gajewski’s proposition was for the current owner, who is in charge of demolishing the building, to only demo the right hand side of the building, the modern part of the building, and leave the red brick building standing with plans to renovate it. He said this would offer parking — approximately 35 spaces.

Choosing not to demolish the left-hand side of the building would only mean 13 more spaces, Gajewski said.

“The city continue and buy the whole property per the contract, the owner gets exactly the same money less the reduction in the demolition costs whatever that might be, and we take on the brick building and we rehabilitate it,” Gajewski said. “In that scenario, everyone gets to honor the existing contract, the city and businesses get their parking, the city saves some money, the owner gets his money, the building is saved and we bring it back into use for community and commercial benefit at no cost to the city.”

Gajewski said he has spoken with the city following the vote a couple weeks ago as well as the owner, who is set to start the demolition this week.

Russell stressed this proposition is new and was not made before the city voted to buy the demolished property.

“We probably will have a discussion (regarding the proposal),” Russell said. “...

The realism of it is is, right now, the city doesn’t own that building. That is owned by a private individual. So, those discussions have to go forward.”

Why it pays to say ‘yes’ to 401(k) matches Employer-sponsored 401(k) plans are great ways to save for retirement, potentially paving the way to worry-free golden years.

Such plans are even more attractive when employers offer to “match” contributions. Employers that offer to match employee contributions typically will do so up to a given percentage. For example, some companies may match up to 2 percent.

That means that employees who contribute at least 2 percent of their paychecks to an employer-sponsored 401(k) plan will receive an additional 2 percent from their employers. For those who contribute 2 percent, that match will double their contributions to 4 percent at no cost to the employee. Despite the benefits of accepting employers’ offers to match, recent data from the retirement planning specialists at Financial Engines indicates that many employees are not taking advantage of these offers when given the chance. A recent survey from Financial Engines found that $24 billion in 401(k) matches goes unclaimed ever year, with the typical employee missing out on more than $1,300 in matches annually.

Over time, money left on the matching table could deny retirees tens of thousands of dollars, if not more. Accepting an employer’s offer to

match is essentially accepting free money, making it some-

thing all investors should do if given the chance.

hat happened at the Jerseyville City Council meeting should be seen as a trumpet for what is to come rather than the end to a potential problem.

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) has plans to resurface a 5-mile stretch to include State Street this year. This allowed for an option to change the striping along State Street.

One option the city has considered was the addition of a bi-directional lane to the business corridor in the city that would have, in turn, removed a large swath of the parking along the strip.

Business owners along State Street that would be affected by this urged against this, worried about a loss of business as a result of the loss of parking options.

But, the city council voted Tuesday, Jan. 28 to retain the current striping along State Street to include angled parking following this outcry of opposition to the idea.

It was a relief to many business owners and others in the community, but the discussion surrounding parking on State Street should not be over.

It was made clear that this victory for business owners along the street will be short-lived — relatively speaking.

Jerseyville Public Works Director Bob Manns indicated that, eventually, State Street will need a complete reconstruction, and when that happens, changes will be made to the parking. He said current IDOT regulations do not allow for angled parking.

It is clear that solutions need to be put into place when this happens, and the city and the community need to continue a dialog about what can be done to have other parking options along or around State Street. We stand behind city officials and business leaders in the community calling for continued communication and planning regarding the future of parking in the city.

It is evident the city has already been working to address this future issue with the creation of a parking lot where the old Moose Lodge stands today, but there is much more work to do.

Just in the town hall on Thursday regarding the issue, numerous ideas were thrown out that would take time but could potentially address some of the parking shortfalls along the city’s business corridor such as rear entrance parking and cleaning up the alleyways on either end of State Street.

This communication, planning and discussion is vital to the survival of the city’s major business corridor.

We are confident, as long as, discussions around parking are continued, the city and the community can be ready for any potential changes to the parking on State Street.

Looking back at remarkably talented Cairns Brothers F

or more than two decades, the Cairns Brothers traveled the Midwest, entertaining audiences with extraordinary talent that ranged from singing and playing musical instruments to acting and playing sports – and their remarkable story began right here in Jersey County.

Their mother, Claudia Harris, was born in 1858 in Piasa Township and married George Cairns Jr. at age 19. The couple lived in eastern Jersey County and had seven sons: George, Herbert, Walter, Roy, Harry, Warren and Rolland.

George Jr., a coal miner and farmer, passed away sometime before 1895. After his death, Claudia moved her sons to Decatur, Ill. The older boys got jobs to help support the family, while the younger boys attended school.

The family was musically inclined, and all seven brothers took lessons. In 1912, Claudia and her sons entered show business and bought a small circus. According to Roy, the show “started out more on nerve and confidence than capital.”

The brothers sang, danced, performed theatrical numbers and played various instruments. George was the comedian, Herbert played character roles, and Roy led the band. Rolland was known for his singing voice and played the drums. Walter managed the troupe.

The seven Cairns brothers, their mother and their circus traveled the Midwest via rail. In the winter, the troupe played in theaters. In the summer, they performed “tent shows” and played baseball against local teams.

The brothers apparently were as talented on the ball field as they were on the stage. A 1916 newspaper article reported the Cairns brothers had won 22 of their

do you hope comes of the Q: What national impeachment hearings?

I hope the impeachment is upheld by the Senate.

I want him to stay in office so he can be kicked out through elections.

The impeachment is a farce. I hope senators strike it down quickly.

I do not care how ever this ends.

last 25 games. According to another article, “many a town in Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin has watched their high salaried team go down to defeat at the hands of the Cairns brothers.”

The brothers eventually realized that beating hometown heroes was bad for business, so they retired their baseball gloves.

In their early days of show business, the brothers were both entertainers and roustabouts, putting up and taking down the tent at each stop and taking care of the elephant and other circus animals.

The year after the family formed their troupe, the Cairns returned to Jersey County to perform in Jerseyville. Harry insisted they sing “Back Home.” The following day, he escorted Marie Meisenhelter to the parsonage at the First Methodist Church, where they were married.

Over the years, the troop often performed in the same towns. They built a sterling reputation among Midwest traveling troops and often performed in sold-out venues.

The troop grew to include 25 employees in addition to the brothers and their wives.

Several of the brothers owned their own private Pullman cars, described as “veritable palaces on wheels” in which the brothers and their families lived while traveling.

In 1917, Harry and Rolland enlisted in the Army. By the following August, increased rail rates and the absence of Rolland and Harry caused the troop to stop performing temporarily.

In 1919, the brothers took their show on the rails again.

A year later, the troop nearly met with disaster when their train cars derailed in Iowa.

One member of the troop suffered broken ribs, but

ny day now, I’ll be going to several locations to take down tree stands and blinds. The season is over in my area. The losses can’t be overcome. The successes can’t be undone. Stamp this season, done. I hunted pretty hard, had a miss, a couldn’tfind, a close call, and one pretty good buck down.

I will lick my wounds, admire my trophy, and wait for another season. It won’t be long until the die-hards will be posting about how many more days until deer season opens again, even though Alabama has another two weeks.

Can’t imagine how anything else in my life would get done if the season ran for six months out of the year. Again, I’ll gather my things, make some mental notes about what I need to different next year, and wait until September. Some of those big bucks will still be around. I hope I am.

One of the things we all do is assume our future is sure. We talk about the next season as if it claims the same assurance as yesterday. We plan, work, and talk without any regard toward the idea that we might have just hunted our last season.

After all, no one dies at my age. My health is no issue. I live a normal, uneventful, and undangerous life. Next season is a given. But as I began penning this article, I was startled with the news of the untimely death of the former NBA superstar Kobe Bryant. The news just confirmed he died in a helicopter crash in California. He was 41.

Even though he was retired, he played his last season. There’s no doubt he had been making plans for next year. He was a business and family man. His interests demanded

Guest Column

BY BETH MCGLASSON everyone else escaped with minor injuries.

George, the oldest of the brothers, passed away in 1920 from a heart attack.

He was 41. In 1924, Harry, the fifth of the seven brothers, contracted pneumonia after having his appendix removed and passed away at age 35. Sometime around 1926, Walter moved to California to perform with a broadcasting orchestra in Los Angeles.

The troop continued to perform for another decade, enjoying a less nomadic live and performing in a single city for weeks at a time. In the early 1930s, the troop included a 36-week run in Freeport, Ill.; a 23-week run in Ottumwa, Iowa; and a 30-week run in Decatur.

The remaining four Cairns brothers hung up their traveling shoes shortly thereafter and formed the Cairns Brothers Stock Co., which performed in a theater in Decatur, where the troop had been launched 20 years earlier. Shortly thereafter, the Cairns brothers fell into anonymity.

he plan far in advance. I can’t imagine he was planning for an early demise.

You’re not either. The truth is, none of us know when we’ve hunted or played our last season.

That time is not based on our birth date but on Outdoor our death date. And only God knows when that Truths event is. What we can

BY GARY know is that one day MILLER we will face an end or an eternity. If you don’t believe God exists, then you are betting our time on earth is it. If you’re a believer in God, you are betting you make it into a place that many people call heaven.

If that place exists, it is only entered through an earned entrance or a gifted one.

Christianity offers the latter. It’s why Jesus died. One can try to pay for their own sins, or he can choose to accept the truth that Jesus did that for him and claim salvation through Jesus’ death. But it’s every person’s choice.

And because we don’t know about the certainty of next season, we would do well to come to some conclusion as to whether Jesus was a liar, lunatic or Lord.

Contact me about speaking at your next event.

Doris Elizabeth (Koenig) Hall

Doris Elizabeth (Koenig) Hall, 88, fortified with the sacraments of Holy Mother Church, died at 5 PM on Monday, January 27, 2020, at DePaul Hospital in St. Louis, following a massive stroke on January 23, 2020 – which stroke occurred exactly 42 months after her stroke of July 23, 2016.

Doris was born October 30, 1931, in Michael, Calhoun County, IL, the third of six children born to Charles Albert and Alma Marguerite (Roentz) Koenig. She was baptized on November 8, 1931 at St. Michael’s Catholic Church in Michael, and was confirmed on May 9, 1943 at St. Mary’s Church in Alton.

She attended Mount Hope Grade School (District 15) in Calhoun County, near Michael. During the fall of 1942, Doris attended a Catholic School in Quincy, while her father worked as a welder at a shipyard near Quincy. In 1943, her family moved to a 120-acre farm at Dow, Jersey County, where she finished grade school at Dow, before entering Jersey Community High School in the fall of 1946, graduating in 1950.

On October 7, 1950, Doris married Arnold Lee Hall at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, Alton, IL. From 1950 until she became an expectant mother, Doris worked at the Granite City Army Depot as a filing clerk; thereafter she worked as a mother, homemaker, and farmer.

Doris and Arnold rented apartments in East Alton and Hartford, before moving to East Newbern in January, 1953, where they rented an old store building on property recently purchased by Doris’ parents.

In 1955, Doris and Arnold purchased this nearly oneacre tract of land from her parents. An old house situated on the property was razed and a new ranch-style home constructed in 1960.

The old store building was later torn down and, in 1966, they purchased the nearby 37-acre Luther Myers’ farm.

Doris’ interests included politics, religion, health foods, farming, gardening, canning, crocheting, knitting, and sewing. She was a former member of the John Birch Society, Legislative Research Associates, Springfield, IL; Eagle Forum, Alton, IL; and Constitutional Coalition, St. Louis, MO. At the time of her death, she was a mem-

ber of St. Francis Xavier parish in Jerseyville.

In addition to her parents, Mrs. Hall was preceded in death by her husband, Arnold Lee Hall on 10/12/11; her son, Jerome Edward Hall on 07/07/17; a grandson, Thomas Hall; her sister, Mary Eugenia (Henry) Heath; her brother, Charles Joseph Koenig; her father-in-law, Arthur F. Hall; her mother-in-law, Lorene (Cox) Denfip; her husband’s step-father, Herman A. Denfip; and her husband’s siblings, Yvonne Moxey, Nina Pizzo Hobart, Wade Hall, and Brian Hall.

Doris is survived by 7 children, Sr. Elizabeth Ann Hall, O.S.F., Carol (Steve) Skasick, Kevin (Shirley) Hall, Angela (Darryl) Logsdon, Timothy (Mandy) Hall, Mark (Stacy) Hall, and Keith Hall, Gina Stewart; 14 grandchildren, Carol Logsdon, Joseph Logsdon, Mary (Carl) Powers; Michael Skasick; Katherine, Christopher, Genevieve, Matthew, and Robert Hall; Jonathon, Ann, Rebecca, Anthony, and Lauren Hall; 5 great-grandchildren, Autumn Powers, Henry Pagel, Sophia Pagel, Madison Pagel, and Bethany Pagel; 2 step-grandchildren, Melissa Fester and Jeremy Roundcount; 2 step-great-grandchildren, Lucas and Lexi Fester; a daughter-in-law, Debra (Ellis) Hall; a Godchild, John Goeken; 3 siblings, William Ed Koenig, Edna Melcher, and Ervin (Colleen) Koenig; 2 sisters-inlaw, Beulah Koenig and Marjorie Koenig; as well as her husband’s siblings and brother-in-law, Valada Henson, Duane (Pam) Hall, Lee (Eve) Hall, and Joe (Betty) Moxey.
