Hartmann reseated on Jerseyville Council By BOB CROSSEN Jersey County Journal Accounts and finance commissioner Yvonne Hartmann was reinstated to her seat on the Jerseyville City Council Tuesday night. Before the city council could take any motion on the minutes of the previous meeting, attorney Thomas Kelty, representing Hartmann, called a point of order to reinstate the commissioner whose seat was declared vacant in November 2013. “She is duly elected to her positions, but it appears Mr. Schaaf is sitting where she should be,” Kelty said. “Before this meeting continues any further, she should be seated.”

After a three-councilman vote – Don Schaaf abstained and Billy Russell was absent – motions to appoint Schaaf and to declare Hartmann’s seat vacant were rescinded, and Hartmann returned to the council desk with a small smile. According to the delinquent tax lists published in the Jersey County Journal annually, Hartmann owed more than $18,000 in county property taxes as of last October when the council was first apprised of the issue. At that time, Jerseyville Attorney George Wittman advised the council to vacate her seat based on Illinois Compiled Statutes which state “a person is not eligible to hold municipal office, if that person is, at any time

By ROBERT LYONS Jersey County Journal Next time Robert Hartmann goes to court on his felony criminal charges, there will likely be two new sets of attorneys arguing the case. Hartmann is awaiting a retrial on a felony DUI charge and later will be tried on charges of solicitation of arson and solicitation of insurance fraud. On Monday, Hartmann’s defense attorney, David Leefers, filed a motion to withdraw as legal counsel on both of the pending cases. Then, Tuesday, Jersey County State’s Attorney Ben Goetten filed to have a special prosecutor assigned to the cases. Attached to the motion filed by Goetten was a letter brought to his office by Hartmann early last week, which the state’s attorney stated could be viewed as an attempt to intimidate him. The letter was given to the state’s attorney’s special investigator, Frank Scoggins. It states if Goetten agrees to reduce the felony charges to misdemeanors Hartmann will, among other promises, agree to end his involvement in the “Goetten investigations.” The investigations, as described to the state’s attorney’s special investigator, involved a private investigator hired to follow Goetten around St. Louis in an effort to find him engaged in wrongdoing. When asked about the situation with a private investigator, Hartmann told a Journal reporter to “talk to the people at the county,” stating four other individuals were responsible for the investigation into the state’s attorney. He said he believes two of the individuals are on the county board, but would not elaborate on their identities. “I’m not a part of it, and I’ve never been a part of it,” Hartmann said. “I basically said I was not going to be a part of it. There was no bargaining at all.” But, Goetten said the letter speaks for itself. “The basis for the possible

“The property owners have no obligation, however, to make any tax payment directly to the local taxing bodies,” Wittman said, quoting from the opinion. “Such taxes are owed and payable solely to the county or sometimes township tax collecting authorities. That being the case, property taxes cannot be deemed a tax or other indebtedness due to another municipality within the meaning of the statute.” Wittman apologized for his misinterpretation of the law, stating it is not the first time his interpretation has been different from higher legal authorities. “The statute appeared to me to be absolutely clear. It said in effect that

a person who owed a debt to a municipality or taxes to a municipality was not eligible to hold office,” Wittman said. “The Illinois Supreme Court decided you have to take that language literally. … I’m not afraid to admit I made a mistake or misinterpretation.” Though all Hartmann’s property taxes from 2012 and owed in 2013 have been paid, taxes from 2011 payable in 2012 on 15 Jerseyville properties have “not been redeemed.” All of those properties are listed as belonging to both Yvonne Hartmann and her husband, Robert Hartmann, or as belonging to 3 Scotties, LLC.

Hartmann’s letter also states he and his wife, Yvonne Hartmann – the city council member who was restored to office Tuesday night – would move out of the county within 90 days, and neither he nor his wife would seek to hold city or county office, if the prosecution agreed to his terms. On Wednesday morning, however, he stated that offer was made before the couple knew Yvonne Hartmann would be reinstated to the city council. He said he’s willing to move, but does not speak for his wife. He also said in the letter he would end his involvement with the Citizens for Better Government group. “It’s the same offer we’ve made all along,” Hartmann said, noting he can no longer (See, Attempt, A2)

JCBA CEO announces April retirement By BOB CROSSEN Jersey County Journal After four-and-a-half years promoting economic growth and bringing business incentives to Jersey County, Jersey County Business Association’s chief executive officer will retire in April. Alan Gilmore, CEO of the JCBA since 2009, said economic development was his main goal when he first accepted the job in Jersey County. “That’s my legacy,” Gilmore said. “I came into town and the only place you could get some kind of economic incentive to start a business was in Grafton. Since that time, we’ve been successful and Jerseyville now has a [tax increment financing (TIF) district] and Brighton has a business district sales tax and they’re getting ready to adopt a TIF.” Prior to his work in Jersey County, Gilmore was a city administrator in Douglas County, where he was raised. He jumped around from city to city – Tuscola, Flora, Paris and Mattoon – throughout his career which began in 1986, but eventually found his home in Jersey County. Like many others, Gilmore gravitated toward the water – in this case, the Mississippi River waterfront, reminiscent of Mark Twain’s novel “Tom Sawyer” – having built a home in Grafton not far from the confluence of the Illinois and Mississippi rivers. He said he loved administration in cities and villages, specifically developing

a means to improve their economies and bring in businesses to increase the local workforce. And Gilmore has done much to improve the area’s economic vitality. He serves on a number of committees, most notably as

cult to figure out what happens and because of why. We hope to get that wrapped up and have that presentation before the board before I retire.” He has also worked with the TIF district in Grafton, helping the city determine proj-

“That’s my legacy. I came into town and the only place you could get some kind of economic incentive to start a business was in Grafton. Since that time, we’ve been successful and Jerseyville now has a [tax increment financing (TIF) district] and Brighton has a business district sales tax and they’re getting ready to adopt a TIF.”

Alan Gilmore Retiring JCBA CEO chairman of the Jersey County Tax Study Group (JCTSG). The group was tasked by the county board to research Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (PTELL), and provide a report to the county board about the law’s impact if implemented. Before the CEO leaves his post this spring, Gilmore said he’d like to conclude the work he has done with that committee. “Some of the members are re-crunching some of our earlier numbers and calculations,” Gilmore said. “We’re trying to assess some impacts there, and that’s diffi-

ects paid through TIF funds which would benefit the area and improve the tax base. Also on the docket is completing an application for an enterprise zone for business incentives in the unincorporated areas of Jersey County. Gilmore proposed the idea as a joint plan with Calhoun and Greene counties last fall, but Calhoun was not interested in the idea. The groundwork for several projects he started will be in good hands when Mary Heitzig, a Jerseyville native, takes the reins (See, JcBA, A2)

during the term of office, in arrears in the payment of a tax or other indebtedness due to the municipality…” However, an Illinois Supreme Court ruling in Eileen Jackson v. Board of Election Commissioners of the City of Chicago contradicts Wittman’s interpretation of the law, which led to the vacancy of Hartmann’s seat and the rescinded appointment of Don Schaaf, who filled the position overseeing the city’s multi-million dollar budget. Wittman read from the Supreme Court opinion, which states eligibility for municipal office is not affected by debts owed to the county collector, “even though funds so received are distributed to taxing districts, such as municipalities.”

Calhoun, Jersey sheriffs investigating linked burglaries By BoB CroSSen Jersey County Journal The Jersey County Sheriff’s Office is working with Calhoun County and other agencies investigating a series of burglaries in the area. Jersey County Sheriff Mark Kallal said the Mohawks Pub in Brighton was the target of a burglary Jan. 22 at 4:04 a.m. He said it is unclear how many were involved in the burglary, but noted the security alarm was triggered as a result of the crime. A door on the south side was pried open and drawers behind the bar were opened in search of cash. The cash box in the jukebox, containing between $300 and $400, was removed through force and the suspect or suspects fled the scene before law enforcement arrived. “It appears the suspect went straight to the juke box, broke in

and took the money out of it,” Kallal said. “The burglar alarm was going off when [law enforcement] got there.” The crime is similar to one at Michael Tavern in Calhoun County. Calhoun County Sheriff Bill Heffington said his office is seeking two people of interest connected to that burglary. A security camera at Michael Tavern shows the burglars vehicle pull into the tavern parking lot at approximately 4:40 a.m. Jan. 22. The burglars’ identities were hidden behind ski masks. “They broke in the front door. That seems like that’s what they’re doing,” Heffington said. “They were caught on a security camera, but you couldn’t tell who they were.” Consistent with the burglary at Mohawks Pub, drawers behind the bar were opened in pursuit of money and the cash box – containing $411 – from the jukebox was removed by

force. Heffington said the driver of the vehicle in the parking lot opened the door to the vehicle, potentially warning of oncoming traffic, while the other suspect was inside. Calhoun County deputy P.J. Parker said the drive time from Brighton to Michael Tavern is consistent with the difference in recorded burglary times, suggesting the crimes may have been committed by the same individuals. Those who have information relating to the burglaries or may have information which could help in the investigation are encouraged to contact their local sheriff’s office with the information. Anonymous tips can be made, as well. The Jersey County Sheriff’s Office can be reached by calling (618) 498-6881, and the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office can be reached by calling (618) 576-2417.

By BoB CroSSen Jersey County Journal A family in Brighton can now sleep soundly after the Brighton Betsey Ann Fire District helped to find and install a fire alarm system for the house which is home to an entirely deaf family. At the beginning of the school year, teachers sent students home with a worksheet asking how many fire alarms they have in their home. One student returned the assignment, noting there weren’t any in the house because nobody in the family would hear it because the family is deaf. Chad Lemarr, assistant fire chief, said the teacher contacted the Brighton Betsey Ann Fire Department to find out if there is a system that could be installed to give the

family peace of mind. After research, he said the family was given bed shakers which vibrate the bed when set off like a traditional fire alarm system. Lemarr said he did not expect the fire district would be tasked with finding a solution to such a unique problem. “I’ve never ever run across something like this,” Lemarr said, noting he has around two decades of experience in the field. “We were able to get them to where they felt safe at home.” He said other families which have an insufficient number of alarm systems are also aided by the fire district. The assistant chief said Brighton Betsey Ann provides alarms through the Illinois State Fire Marshal to those that need them.

JCBA (Continued from A1) of the JCBA in April, Gilmore said. Heitzig began her career in Jerseyville where she formed the Department of Community Development and was an instrumental figure in the establishment of the city’s industrial park, Susnig Center construction and attraction of Roper Plastics to the Jerseyville industrial park. “There’s an awful lot of work that goes on behind the scenes and with committee work and that sort of thing the people don’t see,” Heitzig said, “and it’s important to have some means of open communication and joint conversation with all the governing agencies.” Heitzig left Jerseyville in 1983 to work in Centralia as the economic development director. She also held a role with the Centralia Chamber of Commerce. Between 1999 and 2009, she worked in Olney as the executive vice president of the Richland County Development Corporation. Unlike areas that have separate organizations for businesses, economic development and community development, the JCBA serves all those functions, Heitzig added. She said economic development is a key component of the position, and said she will also be working toward achieving the personal goals she has set for her time at the helm of the JCBA. “That includes building the membership to the JCBA, which would increase the involvement in various aspects of community

activities, as well as increasing organizational income,” Illinois Develoment Council's 2007 Economic Developer of the Year award winner said. She also aims to coordinate her goals with Shane DeSherlia, JCBA board chairman, while also working closely with local governments to ensure sound communications for unity and common goals. She said she is also focused on researching the potential for an economic and community stabilization program to further benefit the community. Heitzig said she and Gilmore will work together in the month leading up to his retirement so she is aware of where everything stands and how to move forward in the best interest of the JCBA and the community. A formal retirement event will be held for Gilmore later this spring.

In fact, all decisions moving forward, including offering any plea deals, will be at the discretion of the special prosecutor. “If I were to remain on the cases and the defendant is found guilty, he could possibly allege prejudice on my part and the convictions could be reversed or remanded which would require retrial,” Goetten said. “While I’m reluctant to do so, it just makes sense to withdraw from the pending cases, which will eliminate those possibilities.” The attorney who represented Hartmann on the DUI charge at trial in December 2013, David Leefers, filed a motion to withdraw as counsel, citing failure to pay balance of fee when due as the reason for his decision. Hartmann said he’s already paid more than $13,000 in attorneys fees and would be looking at close to another $20,000 for Leefers’ services in future trials. The motions filed by both attorneys will be heard Feb. 10 at 1:30 p.m. Hartmann’s retrial on the DUI charge – which stems from a 2011 arrest – is set for later this month.

IDOT extends ferry closures into March By BOB CROsseN Jersey County Journal The Illinois Department of Transportation has extended the closures for the ferries at Brussels and at Kampsville until the beginning of March due to blockages from ice. Joseph Monroe, IDOT District 8 operations engineer, said the ferries will remain closed until they can be used to safely ferry traffic across the river. “Once the channels clear, and it’s safe to navigate from bank to bank, safely allow cars to access the barge, and we can actually allow the cars to leave the barge in a safe manner and we’re confident it is safe both coming and going, we will reopen,” Monroe said. The stoppage of service is a hindrance to many who live in Brussels and Golden Eagle. Carmen Simon, Brussels resident, is the business manager for the city of Grafton whose commute has been extended by a 20 minute detour. Crossing the ferry had become part of her morning routine, she said. “It’s that extra seven to 15 minutes I have to relax and have that cup Submitted photo

JCHD welcomes new environmental health director Jersey County Health Department welcomes Douglas N. King, M.P.A., L.E.H.P., to its agency as director of environmental health. Administrator Therese Macias states, “I feel we are very fortunate to have Doug King at our health department. He has the skills and experience to provide the necessary leadership in the future, not only for environmental health issues, but agency-wide, as well. He is respected in the public health arena both regionally and statewide.” King graduated from Eastern Illinois University with a Bachelor of Science in Zoology and from SIU-E with a Master Degree in Public Policy and Administration. He is also a Licensed Environmental Health Practitioner in the state of Illinois. Prior to joining the Jersey County Health Department, King was the assistant administrator and supervisor of the environmental programs and the emergency preparedness programs at East Side Health District in East St. Louis for the past

of coffee while I cross the ferry,” Simon said. “I wish they were open. It gets old really fast.” She said the closure has increased her fuel expenses due to the extra distance she has to travel. Waiting for a ferry is less cumbersome than waiting for the Joe Page Bridge in Hardin if it is up to let a barge pass underneath, she added. “By the time I get to work – especially with how the weather’s been – my hands actually hurt from gripping the steering wheel so hard because [the roads] are slick,” Simon said. Though the ice has broken since the river first froze over, large chunks line the banks of the river, impeding the ferries from completely docking to their respective landings. The bumper of the ferry must sit flush with the landing for cars to safely travel onto the boat. “If you can’t actually get the dock straight up against the barge, the folks can’t depart, or they can’t access the barge,” Monroe said, “So, you actually potentially risk having a situation where folks would become stranded.” But the ferries are not built to break through ice, Monroe said. If

a ferry were to attempt to crash through the frozen sheet, it could stall out and become stranded in the middle of the river. “They are not designed to function as ice breakers, so there is also a concern for the ferry to become somewhat hampered or underpowered where it wouldn’t be safe to navigate the river channel,” Monroe said. “It would be out in the middle of the navigation channel.” He said depending on the thickness of the ice, the hull of the barge or the boat could be damaged when trying to traverse the frozen waters. Until the boats can cross the river safely, Monroe said they undergo routine maintenance so ice does not force the boats into the middle of the river. He said they are turned on daily to crack up any forming ice and to push debris away from the boats. “We are occasionally operating them to re-moor them and make sure they’re safe so there’s not a situation where they are knocked away or moved in any way, or damaged,” Monroe said. Historically, this is one of the most extended closures of the ferries in both Brussels and Kampsville.

DAR hosts essay contest winners The American History Essay Contest winners and their parents were guests of the Dr. Silas Hamilton Chapter Nations Society Daughters of the American Revolution at the Feb. 3 meeting at the Presbyterian Church in Jerseyville. For this year’s topic the students are to pretend they are a boy or a girl during the colonial fight for freedom. Using historical facts, they are to discuss how the war is affecting their lives. The war dramatically changed the lives of children during the Revolution. Some actually followed their fathers åinto battle; others stayed at home and assumed new responsibilities that were necessary for their families’ survival. Students are to imagine themselves in the place of a child taking on important and often adult responsibilities and to describe some of the changes that are taking place in their lives and that of their family as they face this new situation. They could portray a historical child or a fictional child living in the era of the American Revolution. The students read their essays for chapter members and guests. They will receive medals and certificates at the Student Banquet on March 10 at the Presbyterian Church. The winners’ essays were sent on to District V for judging at that level.

Monroe said the ferries reopened within two weeks of their closure during the most recent shutdowns, and though this stoppage of service is longer than most, he is unsure if it is a record-setting closure. The Brussels Ferry has been closed since Jan. 2 and the Kampsville Ferry initially closed Dec. 30. Both were slated to open last weekend, but weather forecasts and worries of more ice on the river delayed their reopening until March. Earlier this year, the Illinois General Assembly approved to purchase a new ferry for the Kampsville location valued at $3.4 million. Monroe said the new ferry is still being constructed and will arrive in Kampsville when it is completed. The new vessel will have an engine meeting EPA Tier 3 standards for emissions, aimed at reducing tailpipe and evaporative emissions. Monroe said IDOT will open the ferry as soon as possible, even if it is prior to the agency’s expected reopening date. The Golden Eagle Ferry remains closed, but the Winfield Ferry is still running to take commuters into Missouri.

Jerseyville, Illinois

Our VIEWS Questions remain as to commissioner's suitability

The issue: Hartmann reclaims seat on council Our view: Tax woes suggests accounts and fincance may not be best post

publisher@campbellpublications.net

Regional Editor: Robert Lyons

he law may be on the side of Yvonne Hartmann returning to her post on the Jerseyville City Council, but good judgment may not.

Hartmann, along with an LLC in which she is listed as the sole agent and manager, owes thousands of dollars in back taxes on properties throughout the county, most in the city of Jerseyville. At the time of her dismissal from the council, Jerseyville’s city attorney believed state statute precluded Hartmann from continuing to serve. But, because the county collects tax money and distributes it to the taxing bodies such as the city, the money was technically owed to the county. Even if the law is to be interpreted in such a way that might allow Hartmann to re-claim her seat on the council, it may not be in the best interest of the city and responsible taxpayers. She is in charge of managing taxpayers’ money, yet is not contributing her fair share. There is also reason to question her commitment to the post. Her husband, Robert Hartmann, recently submitted a letter to the state’s attorney which stated the couple would move from the area within 90 days and neither would attempt to hold office, in exchange for a reduction in the charges against Robert Hartmann. Robert Hartmann said that stipulation has been part of plea negotiations since the beginning of his legal woes. On Wednesday, however, he noted he made that offer before his wife was given word she would rejoin the council, and he shouldn’t speak for her. Still, there’s no questioning Yvonne Hartmann’s past commitment. She served Jerseyville faithfully for decades, including a couple terms as mayor. So, if she is to continue as a council member, perhaps it would be less conflicting to the interests of the residents if she were to serve over a different department.

Utah story No. 2: Hoodoos, hot air balloons and hidden treasure After visiting Zion National Park last summer, we drove on to Bryce Canyon, Utah. Bryce is famous for the Hoodoos, which are pillar like rock formations in red, orange, yellow and pink that shoot up out of the ground. It is much smaller than the Grand Canyon, but the first time I looked over at the mixed up colors of nature’s creation, I was mesmerized. Arriving in the little town of Bryce Canyon City, we stopped at Ruby’s Inn. Even though it is very touristy, it is well worth a stop. It contains a general store, restaurant, gas station and hotel and dates back to 1916. Here we caught the free shuttle that took us into the park. It made stops at several of the scenic overlooks and the visitor’s center with a hop on/hop off system. We got off at Bryce Point and hiked to Inspiration Point. It was cloudy that day, which for late June was good, because it brought the temps down into the 80’s from the low 100’s. The clouds created a serene shadow over the hoodoos. Instead of the majestic colors getting washed out in the sun, the hoodoos seemed to glow a vibrant orange and pink. With such amazing scenery at every step, I stopped frequently to sit on a rock or tree stump and just gaze over the edge and the view stretching out below me. That evening we stayed in the town of Tropic, which is a one-horse town near Bryce. I explored this quiet, serene town on foot and found the school, a park, a beautiful veterans memorial and several churches. Walking into the Bryce Canyon Coffee Company I was greeted by the friendly owner who instantly made me feel very welcome. She

In last week’s edition of Jersey County Journal, Guest Columnist Diana Herman’s name was misspelled in one reference. The Journal regrets the error.

JOURNAL SEEKING GUEST COLUMNISTS If anyone is interested in submitting a guest column, please contact the Journal. There are many topics out there and we have found that our readers have a lot of thoughtful things to say, on a broad range of topics. Columns, like letters, should add to the public discourse in a helpful way. Guest columns are submitted by a rotating roster of columnists or are simply sent in unsolicited and, if appropriate, are published. These columns do not reflect the views of the newspaper, only the writer. Length is no more than 800 words. Deadlines are Tuesday at 10 a.m. Topics are the choice of the columnist although we encourage our contributors to avoid obviously inflammatory issues (religion, abortion, etc.). Though we are a local paper, contributors are free to write about national or international issues (the pledge, the war, Social Security, health care, etc.). The Journal reserves the right to hold, edit or withdraw a column. These guest columns are an opportunity for our contributors to share an idea, an opinion or information; it is not an opportunity to sell a product or a service. We are looking for informed opinion and lively debate. Our only requirements are that your column have relevance to our community and our readership and be responsibly written (no personal attacks or self promotion, for example).

told me all about the area, offered several travel tips and was curious about my trip. As I sipped my coffee and chatted, I felt I had a new friend. That evening we headed to the nearby town of Panguitch for a hot air balloon festival. We had to park practically in someone’s yard. As we were about to get out of the car I looked up and felt as if I was in a western movie. A cowboy gazed down at us from his horse. We politely asked if it was OK to park there and as he joked around with us he told us it was fine. We asked him his name and he mysteriously replied, “John Wayne.” This gave us a good laugh as we realized we probably did just park our car in John Wayne’s yard. The streets were lined with the balloons in all the colors of the rainbow in addition to vendors and musicians. It was interesting to get into the atmosphere of this little town on a Saturday night and hang with the locals. The next morning we got up at 5 a.m. and drove back to Panguitch for the sunrise balloon launch. Cars began to park along the small highway and in the local baseball field as the balloons were laid out flat on the grass. The large air compressors began to make a “wrrrrr” sound as the colorful balloons began to slowly stand up. I stood there shivering as the balloons slowly and majestically lifted off the ground. Soon the rainbow of colors began to fill the sky. Since there was almost no breeze in the early morning hours, some just hovered above me. If I hadn’t already been shivering from the 50-degree temps of the early morning, this peaceful and soul-stirring

moment would Guest have given me Column chills. What an amazing event BY LAURIE to witness. FREY As the temperatures warmed up we drove on to the Kodachrome Basin and Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. Here, more giant red and orange rocks in all different formations serve as adventurous places to hike, climb and just gaze at. We drove on to the town of Boulder, where we stopped at a little hippie/ artist shop at the entrance to the Burr Trail. The friendly owner had local art and a few snacks for sale. A large sleeping dog lay at the entrance like a doormat, not at all concerned about the tourists. The Burr trail weaves through the bottom of a canyon where the formations take on a dark purple/burgundy color. Here I think we were the only car out on this ribbon like highway. Each curve led to more incredible scenery. The Burr trail goes on for 66 miles, but exploring it for 13 miles was plenty especially with the constant winding and curving. The trail is not really advertised and had we not been talking to the locals, we never would have found it. If you ever get a chance to visit Utah, you too may find that it is like a hidden treasure. You never know what amazing scenery is around each corner and whom you will meet to talk to along the way. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––– n Laurie Frey is a social worker

EDITORIAL

If you’ve spent any time around little girls you’ve seen it happen. Four little sweethearts and three of them own the same sort of doll. They bring them to school or church or the playground on the same day and although they don’t mean to leave out little Suzie who doesn’t own such a doll, she’s excluded. No one’s being mean, not a negative word is said, but because the three have something precious in common, Suzie is removed an emotional inch or two away from the group. De facto separation. Sometimes our mouths need a Conceal and Carry law. I have a tongue that I always carry and need to keep concealed more often. When our group meets for coffee every afternoon I am forever spouting about whatever I’ve seen on Facebook that morning and most of our group join in with their own stories, completely forgetting that not everyone has been bitten by the FB bug. This so-called social media has had the opposite effect of actually de-socializing. I can remember my grandmother talking about the installation of the first phones down her stretch of country road. As with all new technology, not every bought into the idea at first and a few of her neighbors opted out. “I felt so bad,” she said. “Used to be when there was a death in the neighborhood we’d hurry off to tell our friends down the road and they’d hustle to start baking pies and spreading the news to others.” Then she told about the death of a particular neighbor who passed away and the rural party line was the quickest way to let everyone know. “We showed up at the home of the deceased man’s family and spent the day, but Stella wasn’t there.” Stella was the area’s most

loving caregiver along with being the queen of peach pies. “She didn’t have a phone and no one thought to go tell her. The poor lady was devastated.” I asked Grandma what she did. She said, “I wanted to go home and rip my phone out of the wall.” We all know some folks who are just plain crass and unfeeling. They talk about a movie assuming that everyone in the world has seen it or a book that surely you’ve read but you haven’t. Whatever car they drive is the one that everyone must have, and when they go traveling they come back extolling the beauty of the place completely unaware that not everyone has visited there. There’s little help for people like this. But for the rest of us . . . those with at least a whiff of sensitivity in our souls, there’s no excuse. The entire world is not connected to email or Facebook or whatever next week’s fad may be, and as soon as you think you’re the most highly-wired citizen of your little circle, someone will find a way go one-up on you in a few days. I still have friends who wonder how I can live my life without my cellphone by my side. I can ignore them. I have two advantages: I’m old and I’m tough. But if technology is supposed to help us increase our connectivity, then let us not purposely disconnect with the ones we love the most because we simply aren’t being mindful. Let’s not let our connectivity cause us to disconnect with those whom we love the most. Not a happy moment, but one that sticks with, happened a few months ago when a lady in our church came up and said, “I heard you were sick. I’m so sorry and I feel badly because I didn’t know it. Our church used to have this phone chain but now you’ve got to be connected to the Internet.

I’m not The connected. Coonridge I’m really sorry.” Digest There was BY FREIDA no bitterness in her MARIE CRUMP voice, just an apology. And of course it was I who should have been offering the regret. She was the type of gal who you want praying for you no matter your ailment, but we had unthinkingly excluded her from our family. No one meant to do it. It was simply inattention on our part. There’s an interesting and exciting trend sweeping the nation and the world. The founders call it “Mindfulness,” a program teaching the participants the ability to again focus on the present, cutting out distractions, avoiding multi-tasking. There are now over 1,000 full-time instructors and last year folks worldwide chipped in over $4 billion for instruction. Grandma had another word for it . . . caring. One of our local sages down at the Coonridge Café told me, “I was so excited to get my first car. It was a 1942 Chevrolet Fleetline. I paid for it in cash, hopped behind the steering and wheel and drove it home . . . right into the side of the garage. I’d forgot that owning a car doesn’t mean you know how to drive it.” No amount of technology will give us the sensitivity to realize that we’re not all connected in the same way. Sometimes we need to forget our handheld device and simply . . . connect. You ever in Coonridge, stop by. We may not answer the door but you’ll enjoy the trip. –––––––––––––––––––––––– n The imaginative commentary of Freida Marie Crump comes to us from Coonridge – a town that’s a lot like your own.

JERSEY COUNTY JOURNAL

A matter of the heart

By Carmen ensinger Jersey County Journal Valentine’s Day associates February with hearts filled with chocolates. But the month is also linked to another heart - the human heart, with February being designated as American Heart Month. Danny Powell, 29, of White Hall, is all too aware of the importance of taking care of one’s heart. Three years ago, at the youthful age of 26, Powell suffered a massive heart attack. He said he would not be here today, getting ready to celebrate the birth of his first child, were it not for the dedicated staff at Boyd Hospital in Carrollton and the Prairie Heart Institute at St. John’s Hospital in Springfield. On top of being young, Powell had no risk factors typically associated with heart disease. He was carrying around a few extra pounds, but was in no way overtly overweight; he didn’t smoke, he didn’t drink and he didn’t use illegal drugs. Nor did his family have a history of heart disease. He thought he was a healthy, young male, but that all changed on Father’s Day in 2011 when he collapsed with a 100 percent blockage in one of the main arteries in his heart. “I had gone to the hospital a couple times in the six months prior to this with chest pains but by the time I got into the emergency room, the pains were gone,” Powell said. “They gave me an EKG and these never showed any blockages.” But on Father’s Day, the pain was much more intense. “I had gotten home from work and laid down on the bed and I told my wife I had the worst pain in my chest,” Powell said. “It was a sharp pain shooting through me so intense it made me cry, and so I told my wife I think I needed to go to the hospital.” Just as with the two prior trips to the ER, before he arrived, the pain had subsided. “We were just going around Heinold Curve outside of Carrollton and the pain went from being absolutely horrible to nothing at all,” Powell said. “I told my wife to just take me back home but she refused and took me to the hospital anyway.” This would later prove to be the most instrumental decision in the couple’s lives. When he was not working at Airsman Hires Funeral Home as a funeral director, Powell

picked up shifts as an Emergency Medical Technician with the ambulance service. Powell looked for his friends on the ambulance crew to hopefully save a few dollars on an ER visit. “I was going to have them hook me up to the EKG machine in the ambulance to see if something was really wrong this time because I was tight and I didn’t want to pay for another ER visit if nothing was going to show up,” Powell said. “They were getting ready to hook me up and that is the last thing I remember - I coded right there in the back of the ambulance.” Powell needed to get to a cardiac hospital and fast, so an ARCH Helicopter was summoned. Powell was awake during the 20-minute helicopter ride to Springfield, even though his heart essentially stopped four times during this ride - all to save his life. “My heart kept going into what they call a deadly rhythm and if it stays in this rhythm for too long - you die,” Powell said. Powell would have to have his heart shocked nine times in all including once in the elevator on his way to the cath lab and twice during the catheterization of his heart. “The doctor explained to me that I had the type of blockage that was like a piece of onion skin in an artery,” Powell said. “When it was open I was fine, but when it closed I had the chest pains.” Doctors discovered the left anterior descending coronary artery was 100 percent blocked. This artery feeds the entire left side of the heart. “They refer to this artery as the widow maker artery because usually if you have a blockage in this artery you usually don’t make it,” Powell said. “The survival rate for people who have this type of blockage is pretty slim.” Powell said the first echoes of his heart showed minor damage on the lower lobe of his heart. “But after spending two days in cardiac ICU after they put the stent in they told me my heart was back to 100 percent with zero damage,” he said. “I guess it was because they got the blood flow back to the heart so quickly and the fact that I was younger and I healed a lot faster.” Luck was on Powell’s side during this harrowing experience. He recently found out his condition was

so critical and unstable that the helicopter almost declined to fly him to Springfield. “The paramedic who flew me up said that they almost took me back into the hospital and were it not for the pilot, he would not have attempted to get me to Springfield in my condition,” Powell said. “But the pilot told him he thought he could get me there and the paramedic trusted his judgment that he could get us there and so he said let’s do it.” Powell can’t say enough good things about Boyd Hospital. “I can’t tell you how lucky we are to have Boyd Hospital here,” Powell said. “Being in a rural setting like this so far from a major hospital, we are lucky to have a hospital so close which is able to get us stabilized so we can get to a larger hospital.” Powell’s case was so remarkable, as was his recovery, that he was one of only two rural patients asked to address a group of cardiologists on his experiences with the Stat Heart Program. “I felt honored that they chose me for this, but as I told them, if it wasn’t for them and Boyd Hospital, and the hospital personnel and paramedics who saw to it that I got to Springfield - I’d be dead now,” Powell said. “I still get a little emotional when I talk about it.” His close call with death has caused Powell to make some changes in his life and get his priorities more in line. “When something like this happens, you just get a different outlook on life than you had before,” he said. “I try to exercise more, try to limit the amount of fried foods I consume and try to include more grilled items. I had always been the kind of person that was work, work, work - I was always one to try to make as much money as I could. But something like this really makes you stop and think and cherish what we have right now.” And he knows it was more than just luck that has allowed him to tell his story. Powell said his family was by his side through the whole ordeal and for this he is grateful. He has one piece of advice he would like to pass on to everyone out there. “Don’t be rushed by life - enjoy every moment you have with your family which is what I try to do now,” he said.

When Jeff Plato sought medical attention this past June, he thought a poor planting season was taking a toll on his health. But, the shortness of breath and chest pains the 53-year-old was experiencing were, instead, a sign of major heart problems. “I thought I was having an anxiety attack,” Plato, of rural Kane, said. “I’m a farmer and farming was horrendous last spring.” After a battery of tests, however, it was clear more than stress was affecting Plato. On first examination, he was told he would likely need a stent and maybe a few nights in the hospital. Further review revealed more work was needed. “I think I shocked the cardiologist,” he said. “I ended up having to have a quadruple bypass.” Plato said his arteries had blockages of 100, 95, 90 and 60 percent, leaving him in a very vulnerable condition without even knowing it. After all, he had no family history of heart problems. “I’m sure I wouldn’t have survived if I would have had a heart attack,” he said. “My heart got down to functioning at 25 percent, but I never did have a heart attack.” After surgery on June 11, 2013, Plato remained hospitalized for a week. He said he was kept unconscious for three days while his heart gained strength. His wife, Jill, took off six weeks of work to help him begin his recovery. But, his heart problems were not over. Less than two months later, Plato began cardio rehab at Jersey Community Hospital. Not long into the program he experienced ventricular tachycardia (V-tach), which is an arrhythmia that can

progress into the potentially fatal ventricular fibrillation. A cardiologist determined his heart was much weaker than initially thought, and doctors™

Kane resident Blood Clot-Reducing Medication Endorsed

The liver receives 25 percent of the blood that the heart pumps with each beat. One of the largest organs in the body, the liver also is one of the most important, serving a variety of functions that keep human beings alive. One of the more important functions the liver performs is the production of bile, an alkaline fluid that helps humans absorb food and eliminate toxins. Bile salts are produced in the liver and travel through the bile duct and into the intestine. These bile salts help humans absorb fat from their diets. When the liver is functioning poorly, some people may develop diarrhea or malnutrition. That's because a poorly functioning liver may not be producing enough bile or pumping out the bile it is producing as adequately as it needs to for the body to maintain normal function.

Share of SCC Jersey playing for third place title clinched 40TH ANNUAL LADY HAWK INVITATIONAL

The No. 6-seeded Lady Panthers pulled off the first upset of the tournament when they beat No. 3 West Central 57-54 Wednesday, Jan. 29, in Carrollton. Jersey led by as many as 16 points late in the second quarter, but West Central rallied to force a tie game with 3:32 remaining in the fourth. The Lady Panthers closed out the game on a 6-3 run from there, with Lauren Davis scoring three of her 12 points down the stretch. Macy Thurston led Jersey with 19 points on 9-of-12 shooting with 10 rebounds against the Lady Cougars.

The 40th edition of the Lady Hawk Invitational will last longer than most. The tournament's final four games, originally scheduled for Saturday, were postponed following the arrival of inclement weather and icy road conditions in the area. The teams will try again after a one-week hiatus. The Jersey Community High School Lady Panthers will face the host Lady Hawks in the third-place game at 6 p.m. Saturday at Carrollton High School. The event's championship game between top seeds Civic Memorial and Calhoun will follow at 7:30 p.m. Saturday. Calhoun edged Jersey 56-35 when the team met in a semifinal matchup Thursday, Jan. 30, in Carrollton. The Lady Warriors' Grace Baalman, Emma Baalman and Kassidy Klocke — each between 5-foot-11 and 6-foot-2 — combined for 40 points. Lia Roundcount led the Lady Panthers with nine points.

Panthers make late rally, but Centralia prevails SAM ELLIOTT Jersey County Journal The Panthers trimmed a 25-point deficit two minutes into the second half to just five points in the game's final seconds, but in the end couldn't overcome Centralia's strong 3-point shooting and one bad quarter as the Orphans won a 59-52 decision Monday at Jersey Community High School. Centralia hit three-straight 3-pointers in the first two minutes after halftime to take a 46-21 lead early in the third quarter, but the Orphans scored just 13 points the rest of the way as Jersey rallied down the stretch. The Panthers found themselves trailing 37-21 at halftime after Centralia went on a 22-5 run beginning with a long 3-pointer at the buzzer at the end of the first quarter. "That's inexcusable," Jersey head coach Stote Reeder said. "I feel like we just didn't execute so we didn't get good shots. They're a good defensive team, too. We just lost all our fire." The Orphans got — and made — shots from long range, including six from beyond the 3-point line in the first half. Centralia made only one 3-pointer during the Panthers' rally in the final 12 minutes, but the damage was done. Centralia finished with 10-of-17 shooting from 3-point range. Jersey (12-8, 2-3 Mississippi Valley Conference) went on a 21-9 run through the fourth quarter — getting within five points of the lead at 57-52 on a 3-pointer by Luke Shively with 5.6 seconds remaining — but time ran out on the Panthers' comeback. "Our kids showed a lot," Reeder said. "We ran out ahead of the ball, we got early post-ups and we got in the paint. We just didn’t do that in the second quarter. We’re playing against the same defense in the second half as we were in the second quarter, but it’s an attitude. For eight minutes, we lost it and I don't know why. They took some of it away from us, which is what good teams do. They're 18-3 for a reason." Junior Jacob Varble led the Panthers with 13 points, 12 rebounds and six blocks. Senior Billy Ritchey also reached double-digit scoring with 10 points. selliott@campbellpublications.net Mike Weaver/Jersey County Journal

Ashlyn Ringhausen puts up a shot earlier this season against Carlinville at the Macoupin County Tournament. The Lady Piasa Birds clinched at least a share of their first South Central Conference championship since 2011 with a 70-51 win against Roxana Monday at Southwestern High School. Ringhausen scored 12 points in the victory. michaelrweaver.com

The Lady Piasa Birds clinched at least a share of this season's South Central Conference championship following their 70-51 win against Roxana Monday at Southwestern High School. The league title is the first for the Lady Birds since a stretch of 10 SCC West championships in 11 seasons that ended in 2011 when the conference had two divisions. Southwestern (23-2, 8-0 SCC) will look to cap its regular season with a perfect run through league play when the Lady Birds host Gillespie at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at SHS. The teams have met twice already this season. The Lady Birds beat Gillespie 66-40 Nov. 26, 2013, at the Southwestern Thanksgiving Tournament and won a 44-29 decision Jan. 23 at the Macoupin County Tournament. Southwestern took control early against Roxana Monday, getting out to a 22-8 lead through the first quarter and a 37-21 margin by halftime. Sophomore Madison Greeling led the Lady Birds with 23 points. Junior Ashlyn Ringhausen added 12 points and sophomores Erin Laubscher and Kelsey Rhoades each scored 10 while classmate Kristin Cox chipped in seven off the bench.
