COVID-19 contributes to Pittsfield small business closures By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Two businesses around Pittsfield’s courthouse square recently announced their intentions to close because of pandemic related causes. The Wm. Watson Café – formerly Free Press Coffee House – closed its doors effective Nov. 29, and Backroad Boutique owner Kacie Lipcaman announced earlier in November that the shop would close as of the end of December. Of the Wm. Watson Café and Hotel, co-owner Jonas Petty indicated that the closure of the café side of the business was caused by state-mandated restrictions and changing customer behaviors in response to the pandemic. “You have two things happening,” Petty said. “You have a hotel with no business, which affects the coffee shop, and you have a business of habit – the coffee shop. The first shutdown affected habits, and when we reopened, we didn’t get all of our customers back.” While the number of hotel guests and café customers has fallen off sharply, the business still must cover its expenses. “What didn’t change was overhead – rent, utilities and taxes,” Petty said. “Employee pay is going up, too. The government is disconnected from reality.” Petty said that the pandemic and related restrictions have revealed divides in the community and will have lasting social and economic impacts. Petty pointed out that while many workers in the public sector and in white collar industries may be able to work remotely, most small businesses do not have that option. “It’s a serious deal, and I think there’s a separation of us that are in small business and those who aren’t,” Petty said. “Small businesses don’t just appear, but when you cut off their lifeline – their customers – they disappear. Is the cure worse than the disease?” Kacie Lipcaman, owner of Backroad Lace Boutique, in multiple Facebook posts, cited the pandemic coupled with mounting overhead and inventory costs as the reason for the closure of the storefront business on the west side of the square. “Having a store front, in ANY small business...has a price,” Lipcaman wrote in a Facebook post Sunday, Nov. 29. “Not just rent, utilities, employees, and taxes. But, also...programs to run the systems, programs for the barcodes and scanners, website fees, card fees, all the fees, bags, shipping costs, furniture, unexpected costs, trial and error costs, and the biggest cost...inventory. When we moved to our dream location, we
could have never ever predicted a world pandemic just as we were carrying over triple the amount of inventory we had been for the last year and a half. [sic]” Lipcaman indicated that she intends to continue pursuing her dream of operating her business as a brick and mortar retail store, and that she is exploring avenues for realizing that vision. “My wheels are turning because I refuse to give up on my dream just yet...& I am hoping I don’t have to,” Lipcaman wrote in the same Facebook post. “Stay tuned...BRL may have an announcement soon! [sic]” Picture Pittsfield President Jessica Guthrie, who recently sold her retail business Pike County Mercantile for reasons unrelated to COVID-19 said that the state government’s relatively aggressive attempts to contain the pandemic have affected small businesses throughout the state. “This isn’t a Pittsfield or a Pike County problem,” Guthrie said. “Illinois has had a huge number of retail and food service businesses trying to deal with government restrictions. Being so close to Missouri is an added challenge.” In an attempt to assist Pittsfield small businesses struggling in the pandemic, the city’s Economic Development Director Ed Knight stated on Monday, Nov. 30 that Pittsfield is applying for a $100,000 Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) grant that would, in turn, allow the city of Pittsfield to provide eligible businesses with grants of up to $5,000 for eligible overhead costs. According to Knight, businesses such as bars, restaurants, salons, barber shops and retail stores that show at least 25 percent lower income from March through November of 2020 compared to the same time period of 2019 may be eligible for the grant. Knight said that businesses will need to be prepared to act quickly to take part in the program. “Hopefully, DCEO will be able to turn our application around within five days,” Knights said. “Applications for businesses will need to be received by Dec. 21.” DCEO stipulates in the grant eligibility requirements that each business applying for the grant must have complied and will continue to comply with all relevant laws, regulations and executive orders from the state and federal government, including the social distancing guidelines as put into effect by the executive orders of the Illinois Governor. Knight said the city will make more information known to business owners if and when the grant funds become available.

As in real estate, location is important when placing your decorated reindeer on the courthouse lawn. Chloe Lemons, left, and Cooper Priest use special care to place their reindeer in the display on the east side of the courthouse lawn, Sunday. By the end of the day, 28 deer were brought in for judging, down from the 40 last year. Picture Pittsfield President Jessica Guthrie says wooden deer are still available at Pikeland Motors and can be decorated and brought to the courthouse but may not be eligible for the judging. Deer from last season can also be brought in for display.
Illini riding the ebbs and flows of the pandemic By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press As COVID-19 peaks and valleys each day, so does Illini Hospital’s ability to cope with the virus. “We are treating COVID-19 patients,” Kathy Hull, CEO of Illini said. “We treat patients in the ER and then, depending on the severity of their case, treat them and send them home, admit them to Illini or transfer them to a facility with ventilators.” Hull said patients with other illness are still being treated at Illini. “A week or so ago, I’d say our census showed about 50/50 with COVID patients,” Hull said. “Then right after that, it was a bit heavier with more COVID.” Hull said finding hospitals to transfer people, either with COVID or another illness, is difficult at times.

Firearms numbers down, Pike County still tops in total deer harvest By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) reported last week that deer harvest is down from 2019 for the opening firearms deer hunting season in Pike County. 1,029 deer were killed during opening firearms season this year, compared with 1,174 in 2019. IDNR District Wildlife Biologist Tim Krumwiede says that overall deer hunting numbers show Pike County is still the top county in terms of total deer harvested, however, after factoring in the county’s youth and archery hunting seasons’ totals. “Our firearm numbers were down a little from this time last year,” Krumwiede said. “But our archery harvest is up a few hundred to date, so the total number of deer killed in the county is still up from last year at this time.” Krumwiede said that Pike County’s deer harvest has led the state since the 1970s and that harvests peaked in the early 1990s. “Our numbers are still way down from the early 90s,” Krumwiede said. “We were seeing numbers over 9,000 back then. We’re at 4,300 to 4,500 for the last several years.” Some of the decline in deer harvest since the 1990s, Krumwiede said, could be attributed to outbreaks of epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHG). No significant EHG die-off has been observed in 2020 according to Krumwiede. Krumwiede added that while there are fewer hunters visiting Pike County compared to the 2000s, a significant number of hunters do come to the county to harvest trophy bucks. “It’s not the craze that it was when hunters couldn’t find a place to stay in the county, but there are still lots of hunters from out of state,” Krumwiede said. “In 2006, over half of the archery hunters were from out of state. Right now archery numbers are trending up.” Based on the latest IDNR reports of county-bycounty deer harvest numbers, Krumwiede anticipates that Pike County will keep its spot as the number one deer hunting county in Illinois. “We’re about even from where we were last year
at this time, give or take a few deer,” Krumwiede said. “The only reason Pike wouldn’t keep that title is that Pike County doesn’t have a late winter deer season and other counties do.” Krumwiede said that late winter hunting seasons are a result of increasing deer/vehicle collisions in a region, indicating the need for further population control. Pittsfield taxidermist Jeremy Priest, who owns Long Beard taxidermy said that Pike County is enjoying a successful 2020 deer hunting season. “We’ve had a pretty good season overall,” Priest said. “I think we’re still on track to be number one in the state.” Priest believes that more hunters may be present this season, because the pandemic has allowed them to work remotely. “I think we’ve seen an increase in non-resident hunters because of COVID,” Priest said. “They can still work from a laptop or on their phones. We’ve seen lots of old clients, who we haven’t seen in years, back in Pike County” Gary Harpole of Nebo’s Heartland Lodge also believes the pandemic has encouraged more people to hunt this year. “There are probably more people with time to hunt,” Harpole said. The weather for much of the fall has been beneficial to hunters as well Priest said. “The weather has been really cooperative,” Priest said. “You like to see temperatures in the high 30s to the mid-40s – and no rain, of course. They were still moving really good early in the season. A cold snap every few weeks keeps them moving.” According to Harpole, however, weather this fall negatively impacted some of the lodge’s hunters. “Last year was better for bigger bucks because of the weather,” Harpole said. “October was good when it was cold. When it’s cold, it gets deer up and moving. Cold weather is like caffeine for a deer.” Priest concurred with Krumwiede that Pike County’s deer population was hurt by disease earlier in the decade, but he indicated the population was trending up. “Deer numbers have definitely bounced back in the last four years,” Priest said. “EHD really wiped out our deer population. The population rebound has

Jeremy Priest mounted a 15 point buck at his taxidermy shop, Pittsfield’s Long Beard Taxidermy, Friday, Nov. 27. Priest, who has practiced taxidermy for 19 years, said that Pike County is experiencing a good deer season this fall, and he said that the quality of the deer being harvested is exceptional compared to the previous couple of years. IDNR District Wildlife Biologist Tim Krumwiede reported that fewer deer were harvested during Pike County’s first shotgun season compared to last year, but bow hunting numbers are up for the year. Krumwiede said that he expects Pike County to lead all Illinois counties at the end of all deer hunting seasons.
helped deer season totals.” Harpole was also optimistic about the future of deer hunting in the county. “The number of hunters is strong,” Harpole said. “The future looks strong.”

Borrowman reflects on time with County Board By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press After twelve years on the Pike County Board and ten years as Board Chairman, Andy Borrowman made the decision to not seek another term in this fall’s election. Prior to serving on the county board, Borrowman sat as an alderman on the Pittsfield City Council. Upon moving to rural Nebo, however, Borrowman decided he could serve the county as a whole by running for the county board. “When I moved out of Pittsfield, of course I couldn’t serve on the city council,� Borrowman said. “So I ran for the county board and enjoyed a lot of support.� After current Pike County Treasurer Scott Syrcle stepped down from the county board to run for the treasurer’s office, Borrowman was tapped to replace Syrcle as chairman. “Scott Syrcle and (County Board Vice-Chairman) Mark Mountain encouraged me to run for chair,� Borrowman said. Borrowman said that it is incumbent on responsible citizens to run for local elected offices. “It’s hard to get people to put their names on a ballot,� Borrowman said. “These positions need to be filled by people who want to do the job.� The outgoing chair said that some periods of time on the board were difficult, but on the whole, he enjoyed the opportunity to serve Pike County. “There have been times when it’s been hard, this year for example,� Borrowman
said. “All in all, it’s been good, and I feel we’ve done a lot for the county.� Borrowman stressed the importance of using technology to increase access to open meetings and to incorporate more people in the process of county governance. “We need to keep moving things into the next century,� Borrowman. “It would be good to improve our ability to put meetings online. We could get a camera and enhance streaming to involve more people.� Helping to modernize and improve technology within county offices, Borrowman said, was an important accomplishment realized during his tenure. “At the time, each office was doing its own thing with computers, servers and software,� Borrowman said. “I thought if we could combine all that together we could save a lot of money. That took a long time. In fact it’s ongoing, but we’ve made great strides.� Continuing to improve county government’s technological capacity and making sure county employees are up to speed on how to use technology to benefit residents, Borrowman said, is key as the county moves into the future. “Technology is very important to me,� Borrowman said. “Technology is knowledge. We need to embrace it, or we’ll be left behind.� Under Borrowman’s leadership, the county started leasing all of its computers, which Borrowman said allows the county to constantly retire old equipment and stay up to date. Borrowman explained that
COVID-19 will continue to create challenges for the county government. “The county will need to tighten its belt and hold all the offices to their budgets,� Borrowman said. “We had some cost overruns this year. That’s going to be a challenge the board is going to face.� Borrowman stressed the importance of capitalizing on Pike County’s natural strengths to help improve the local economy and create quality jobs within the county to keep young people closer to home. “We need to enhance what we already have, which is agriculture,� Borrowman said. “Besides production, there are many other areas of ag that can be enhanced. We have many suppliers to farmers that can continue to grow. There are opportunities for entry level jobs and higher income opportunities.� Borrowman also cited the transportation and logistics inherent to the agriculture industry as opportunities for economic growth. “It is a challenge to keep young people because of a lack of jobs,� Borrowman said. “We need to enhance and promote what we already have. We’re always looking for ways to improve employment.� Upon leaving the board, Borrowman said he will continue to involve himself with his trucking company, and he plans to maintain his CDL and make himself available to drive a DOT truck route on weekends. Of course, Borrowman also plans to spend more time with
his 10 grandchildren. “Meetings have cost me a lot of family time,� Borrowman said. “Some of the grandkids’ activities will be back on my plate.� Borrowman added that his wife Sheryl had retired after 29 years as an X-ray technician at Passavant Hospital, and the couple plans to travel once the pandemic subsides and restrictions are relaxed. Borrowman left the door cracked for future involvement in county government. “I don’t know if it’s a retirement,� Borrowman said. “It’s a break, but I’ll never say, never. It’s been well worth my time serving the people of Pike County. I’m not going anywhere.�

Outgoing Pike County Board Chairman Andy Borrowman held a commemorative plate celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Pike County courthouse at the end of the Monday, Nov. 23 county board meeting. County Clerk Natalie Roseberry presented the plate on behalf of the Pike County Republican Central Committee to honor Borrowman at his last county board meeting. Borrowman has served as board chairman for ten years and has served on the board for a total of twelve years. Borrowman did not seek reelection this fall.
County board approves budget, honors Borrowman By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Board members approved the fiscal year 2021 budget as presented at the Monday, Nov. 23 county board meeting held in person at the courthouse and remotely via Zoom. The meeting was also live-streamed to the public on the Pike County Sheriff’s Department (PCSD) Facebook page. Following five budget meetings throughout the fall, the board approved the county’s fiscal year 2021 budget. The only vote against the balanced $5,010,344 budget was cast by board member Derek Ross. Ross said he has voted against approving the budget each year he has served on the board, because he believes that the budget improperly uses tort funds. “It’s a way to produce funds,� Ross said. “It’s been going on for twenty years.� The board also approved several amendments to reconcile the current fiscal year’s budget with actual expenditures. Ross again cast the lone dissenting vote. Free flu shots, to be provided by the Pike County Health Department, were approved for all county employees, department heads, board members and their family members. The free flu shots had been approved in previous years. Board members appointed Don Welbourne to the Bay Creek Watershed Conservancy District Board for a term of five years. County holidays for 2021 were approved. The only change to the county holidays was the removal of election day. An agreement, allowing Western Illinois
Title Services space in the County Clerk’s office, between the county and the title company was approved. Also approved was an anticipation note resolution that allows the county to borrow against a percentage of anticipated tax receipts. The low bid for the loan was from Central State Bank at 1.49 percent interest. The Office of the State’s Attorney’s Appellate Prosecutor was appointed as Pike County’s agent from Dec. 1, 2020 to Nov. 30, 2021. The Appellate Prosecutor acts as a conflict attorney for the county and handles appeals. The county’s ambulance department received $55,000 of CURES funding to purchase respirators to be used on ambulance calls. At the request of board member Ross, and following community complaints, Board Chairman Andy Borrowman requested that Sheriff David Greenwood provide written direction to the county’s Treasurer’s Office directing staff to wear face coverings when interacting with the public or other county staff. “I feel we need to set an example,� Ross said. At the end of the meeting, which was Borrowman’s last, County Clerk Natalie Roseberry, on behalf of the Pike County Republican Central Committee, presented Borrowman with a plate commemorating the 125th anniversary of the courthouse’s opening. The board’s reorganization meeting to seat a new chair will take place at 7 p.m. on Dec. 3 at the courthouse.

PICKINGS FROM PIKE’S PAST 25 YEARS AGO: COACH BENNETT INDUCTED INTO HALL OF FAME
150 Years Ago Dec. 8, 1870 One of our Pittsfield citizens was fined $10 for using cuss words on the streets, and the same amount for improper language in the presence of ladies. Is there a town in Illinois that can give such proof of a high state of morality as this? The next meeting of the Pike County teachers’ institute will be held at Griggsville, beginning on the 19th and continuing for 5 days. 125 Years Ago Dec. 4, 1895 The roads are terrible, rough and icy. The mercury was hovering around the zero mark this morning in El Dara. It is reported that the Mississippi River is full of ice. The farmers are not yet done shucking corn. The snowstorm gave them a recess. At the sound of the bugle on Nov. 30, twenty woodmen turned out in the writer’s woods near Atlas and replenished the woodpile for an unfortunate neighbor, Louis Markos. The Methodist Church in Barry is now lighted by electricity, and there are new book racks attached to the seats. All the above are paid for by the ladies. Great preparation is being made for a grand Christmas entertainment at the New Hartford Christian Church. 100 Years Ago Dec. 8, 1920 Lots of rain an foggy weather in the New Hartford area. Lots of corn is molding in the field. Newly elected county officials were installed. They were Barry Mumford, state’s attorney; Ray G. Ruyle, circuit clerk; Merle S. Bar-
ber, county treasurer. The Pike Co. Democrat commented: “The whole bunch are Republicans and a nice looking and capable bunch of young men. If we had to choose Republicans to fill those offices, we do not know how we could have improved on the bunch that have been chosen.� Harry and Frank McClintock have purchased the Galloway Bros. and Jennings hardware store and picture show at Pleasant Hill, and plan to operate the firm under the name, McClintock Bros. Rev. B. G. Reavis of Bowling Green began a three-week revival service at the Independence Church last week. A fine new pipe organ has been ordered for installation in the Pittsfield Christian Church. An organization has been formed for the project of drilling for oil in the gas belt west of Pittsfield. F. W. Niebur advertises a high laced walking boot for $12.50. “Skirts next spring will be as short as ever! Oh boy!� 75 Years Ago Dec. 5, 1945 Pike County has 76 rural schools with enrollment of 12 or fewer. The county is inaugurating a survey of the school situation with a view to provide education more economically through district reorganization. Ed House and Bob Carpenter have returned to the Mississippi Valley Production Credit Association after receiving honorable discharges from the Army. Ed’s tour of duty was in the South Pacific, and Bob’s was in the European campaign. Regular gas is now at prewar prices, 16.5 cents per
gallon. Mr. and Mrs. Jay Smith Thomas have opened a dry cleaning establishment in Pleasant Hill. He recently returned from a long period of service overseas. Mrs. Doris Branson received a telephone call from her husband, Kelly Branson, who has served with the CBs in Okinawa, that he has arrived in San Diego, and will be home within ten days. A daughter was born Dec. 3rd. in Illini Hospital to Mr. and Mrs. Donald Hunter of Pittsfield. The mother was formerly Marguerite Williamson. Russell Scranton and Ben Wheeler of Milton have had new rubber wheels put on their tractors. 50 Years Ago Dec. 9, 1970 The leading retail business operation in Hull, the D. B. Gray Implement Co., was largely destroyed by fire Sunday night, creating deep concern Monday morning as to whether it will be rebuilt. The plant that burned was built in 1948. Miss Nancy Roberts, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Max Roberts of Griggsville, and Bruce Zumwalt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Merle Zumwalt of RR 2, Pittsfield, were married Nov. 21, at 2:30 p.m. at the Griggsville United Methodist Church. Custom babysitting for children of Saukee basketball fans is being offered during home games by the Future Homemakers of America. Some of the girls providing the service are Shirley Neese, Marilyn Stauffer and Teresa Landess. 25 Years Ago Dec. 6, 1995 The Regional office of
Education is considering an alternative school for Pike and Adams to be able to send suspended or expelled students instead of sending them home. LeRoy Leonard of Pleasant Hill received his Eagle Scout award from Scoutmaster Wilbur Doil Nov. 26. His is the son of LeRoy and Brenda Leonard. The PHS Saukees lost a good game to Chicago Carver Friday night, 63-59. Carver is ranked fourth in class AA preseason polls, and the Pittsfield is ranked second in Class A. Saukee coach Dave Bennett has been inducted into the Illinois Basketball Coaches Hall of Fame. Bennett is in his 20th season at PHS, and has won 16 regionals, nine sectionals, made four appearances in the state tournament, and won the title in 1991. His record is 438 wins and 122 losses. 10 Years Ago Dec. 8, 2010 Andy Borrowman was named the new chairman of the Pike County Board Monday night at an organizational meeting at the Pike County courthouse. Five members were sworn in before the election of the chairman: incumbents Cleve Curry and Robert Kenady and new members, Justin Noble, Walker Filbert and Michael Boren. Pittsfield senior Brad Hamilton became the ninth player in Pittsfield boys basketball history to score 1000 points in his career in Friday’s game against Camp Point Central. Keenan Yeliott is the top career scorer at 1,395 points. Q Pickings from Pike’s Past is compiled by Michael Boren.

Clemmons descendents still on Pike landscape By MICHAEL BOREN PIKE COUNTY BICENTENNIAL COMMITTEE These six children are Pike County residents and are descended from Ezekiel Clemmons and his wife Phoebe, who were here in time for the first census of Pike County in 1830. They came in 1825 and brought with them their son, John Peter Clemmons, who was 11 years old. They first settled in Detroit Township, and later moved to Montezuma Township. Ezekiel began the tradition of being a farmer, which was carried on by many of his descendants. John Peter married Mary Jane Grimes. Their daughter, Sarah Elizabeth married William Hutton. The Huttons had a daughter, Mary, who married Alfred Fred Parks. Their son, Virgil Parks married Gertrude Moore. The son of Virgil and Gertrude was Donald Ivan Parks, who married Julia Jane Moore. The daughter of Donald and Julia Parks was Julia Lynn Parks, who married Michael Bruce Boren. Michael and Julia have two sons who live in Pike County. Their son Zachary Parks Boren married Elizabeth Templeton and they have three sons, Benjamin Jeffry, Ezra Michael and Levi Mark. Michael and Julia also have a son, Spencer Michael Boren, who is married to Kayla Sue Spangler, and they have three children: Seth Michael, Emmett Bruce and Lena Sue. These six children represent the ninth generation of Pike Countians from Ezekiel and Phoebe Clemmons. Every male Clemmons, Hutton and Parks in the family line was a farmer in Montezuma Township. Part of the original land is still owned by family members. Later generations have included a teacher, a newspaper editor and an attorney, contributing to what makes Pike County great.

Pandemic (Continued from A1) “Two weeks ago, Blessing, Illini, Passavant, St. John’s, Memorial and Hannibal Regional were all full,� Hull said. “Then the numbers dropped throughout the region and beds were available again.� Josh Martin, the Pike County EMS coordinator, said they have been transferring patients to hospitals out of the area as beds are few and far between on certain days. “We have taken patients to Peoria, hospitals in Iowa and Missouri,� he said. “We had a patient to be transferred one day at 1 p.m. When I left work at 5, they were still waiting on a facility to find an open bed for that patient.� Martin said the number of available beds varies from hour to hour. “There may not be one when you call, but an hour or so later, they have three,� he said. Hull said the staff from all departments at Illini, ER, diagnostics such as lab and X-ray, nursing, dietary, environmental services are all working under stressful conditions. “As people are out due to quarantining or after testing positive, our staff has really stepped up to the plate,� Hull said. “They are trying to balance priorities, and some
days it’s stressful.� Hull said Illini is currently allowing one visitor per patient and is doing the best they can to protect both the visitor, the staff and other patients. “It’s hard. People need people and families want to see the patient, and the patient wants to see their family,� Hull said. “If a patient is near the end of life, we allow the family to come in. I couldn’t live with myself if we denied families a chance to say goodbye and have that type of closure.� “It’s not a hoax,� she said. “People are dying. The disease knows no boundaries or ages— two people living in the same house, one tests positive and has no symptoms, the other tests positive and ends up on a ventilator. There is so much we don’t know yet.� Hull said she is not sure what type of effect will be brought about by a vaccine being made available. She said she is a strong proponent of vaccinating and will most likely get one as soon as it’s available to her. She also said as more and more is being learned about the disease, the approach to stopping the spread remains the same, wear a mask, socially distance and stay home.

Walter ‘Wally’ D. Groom, age 70, of Pittsfield, IL passed away on Monday, November 23, 2020 at Illini Community Hospital in Pittsfield. He was born on June 15, 1950 in Beardstown, IL to Robert H. and Joyce M. Day Groom. He married Joan Richards on January 20, 1973 at the Pittsfield United Methodist Church, and she survives. Wally graduated from Pittsfield High School with the very unique class of 1969. Their 5 year class reunions were always looked forward to and never to be missed, giving the close knit class the opportunity to share memories of wild and crazy days gone by. He was proud to have been a member of the PHS football 64 game winning streak. After graduation, Wally entered the United States Army, serving a tour in Germany and was honorably discharged. In 1973, he began farming with his father-in-law, Howard Richards, and continued until the time of his death with his partner, brother-in-law and friend, Mark Richards. He truly had a love of the land and farming. Wally was of the Christian faith and attended the Pittsfield United Methodist Church. He was a member of the Old Orchard Country Club, golfing 47 consecutive Labor Day tournaments. Wally was instrumental in building the Vic Calendar ballfield and was a member of Steak Club, Jaycees, Moose Lodge #420, and the Pittsfield Masonic Lodge #790 A.F. & A.M. He was an avid boater and golfer, and frustrated Bears fan. In earlier years, he enjoyed deer hunting. Wally was generous, hardworking, charismatic, and the life of the party. He was a loyal and devoted husband, father, grandfather, great grandfa-

before they enter the building,� Martin said. “If people wonder why they may not jump out of the ambulance and rush in first thing, it’s because they are in the rig, suiting up before entering. Most times, they gown up before they leave the ambulance building.� Staffing is a problem, as some of the crews have had positive tests and others are quarantined. Martin, who is the administrator and only takes shifts when necessary, says he has been working a lot lately. “I worked a 10-hour shift Sunday,� he said. “We had hoped to have an EMT class soon, but with the COVID restrictions, the class itself is an issue. We are not even sure we are going to be able to do that.� The number of ambulance calls is about the same as last year, according to Martin. “When this first hit, back in March, it was dead,� he said. “We would have shifts with only one or two calls. That put our numbers for the year down. People were not going out and were not calling the ambulance for things they might have normally called for

EMS working through COVID By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press Pike County Emergency Medical Services (EMS), like any other health related agency, is working in a fast and fluid environment with regulations that change daily. “You will get a set of protocol that changes daily,� Josh Martin, Pike County’s coordinator of the service, said. “The next day you get one that completely contradicts the one from the previous day, and then, the third day, you get one that may or may not be the one from the first day.� Meanwhile, Martin and the crews at Pike County EMS try to keep up and assure their safety as well as that of their patients. “We have these reusable gowns we wear and we go through about 60 every four days,� he said. “Denman Medical Services brings us new ones and picks up our used ones. They wash, sanitize and disinfect them and then rotate them.� Martin said there are different types of COVID calls. One may be for a positive test, one maybe for a suspected positive, and one may be from a household that has a member who has tested positive, but that person is not the patient. “Either way we take all the precautions,� he said. “Even if it has not been identified, we use the same precautions.� The crews always wear a surgical mask, along with an N-95 mask when responding to a COVID involved or suspected case and even has equipment to make sure the mask is fitted properly. So far, availability of protective gear is adequate, although gloves can take awhile to receive. Crews responding to a call involving identified or suspected COVID can suit up in a matter of minutes, according to Martin. “If we have a crew that has went to run an errand or get gas or something and they are not at headquarters when they get the call, they will suit up

help.� Now, a lot of the calls the crews get are COVID related, but they are still getting calls for heart-attacks, accidents, strokes and other emergencies. Kathy Hull, administrator at Illini Hospital, said that is her fear that people who need emergency care will not call for fear of going to the hospital and being exposed. “We take every precaution against that,� she said. “If you need to go to the ER, you need to go as soon as possible to prevent further damage.� The increase in equipment and the other expenses incurred by the Pike County EMS so far have only stressed the budget, not put it in serious danger. “We have CARES money which is from the federal government, and we have CURES money which is from the state,� Martin said. “We are able to use that money to offset some of our expenses.� Income has also been affected, as the EMS used to do several transfers per day to other area hospitals, but with area and regional hospitals full, transfers are markedly down.

Harry Manley recognized as 75-year member of Perry American Legion Post 1040
By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Harry Manley, who graduated from Perry High School in 1942 is being recognized this winter as a 75-year member of Perry American Legion Post 1040. Manley was inducted into the Army March 20, 1943 in Peoria, along with 18 other men from Pike County. Among them were three fellow high school students â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Billy Reed, Donnie Little and Clarence (Buddy) Huddleston. According to Post 1040 Commander Rex Olson, Manley is one of only two remaining members of the post who served in World War II. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He and Don Bergman are the last two to serve in World War II,â&#x20AC;? Olson said. According to Manleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son, Steve Manley, Harry and the 17 other Pike County soldiers were placed in the Military Police Escort Guard and spent the entire three years of their military service together. The groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first assignment, according to Harry Manleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memoir, was to report to Boston to pick up a group of German prisoners of war (POWs), who had served under Rommel in North Africa, and escort them to a camp in Alabama. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people, especially younger people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize how many prisoners there were,â&#x20AC;? Steve Manley said. Steve Manley said the Pike County soldiers also spent time guarding 50,000 German POWs in Texas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The German prisoners worked in cotton fields,â&#x20AC;? Steve Manley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They actually paid them.â&#x20AC;? The Pike County soldiers were also sent to California to guard Japanese POWs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Out in California they only had about 80 prisoners,â&#x20AC;? Steve Manley said. Manley and the rest of the Pike County military police were also sent to France and England to escort POWs from Europe to the United States. After World War II, Harry returned to Pike County and purchased the farm across the road from his parents Rev. and Mrs. Cale Manley in Fishhook. Manley married Mary Balzer on Dec. 3, 1946 and had three sons: Steve, Rodney and Len Manley. Harry and Mary Manley lived on the farm for 68 years until Mary had a stroke in July of 2015. She spent two years in the Barry Community Care Center

Hope you all enjoy: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned...that money doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy class. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned...that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s those small daily happenings that make life so spectacular. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned...that under everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned...that to ignore the facts does not change the facts. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned...that when you plan to get even with someone, you are only letting that person continue to hurt you. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned...that love, not time, heals all wounds. Watch for more of these in the next issues of the local newspapers.

In the parable of the prodigal son, how many sons did the father have? 3. Was the prodigal son the oldest son or the youngest son? 4. When the prodigal son returned home, what articles of clothing and jewelry did his father give him? 5. Up until 1954, what color were U.S. traffic stop signs? 6.
