SHERIFF “BOB” MOSIER
Bob Mosier won the Republican Party primary on the road to a second term as Fauquier County sheriff on Tuesday, defeating challenger Chris Cochrane handily. With unofficial returns in from 21 of 21 precincts, Mosier received 80.53 percent of the vote to Cochrane’s 19.47 percent – 4,083 votes to 987. “It feels great. The people of Fauquier have spoken. They appreciate good law enforcement,” said Mosier from a celebration at the Inn at Vint Hill. Mosier credited a lot of hard work for the victory. “I’m just happy and grateful,” said Mosier. Mosier was endorsed by all five Fauquier County
supervisors. Cochrane, head of facilities and security at Highland School and a retired captain in the Fairfax County Police See SHERIFF, page 4

Three running to reform Rappahannock Electric Cooperative By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer
Three candidates running for seats on the board that runs the Rappahannock Electric Cooperative say the incumbents are secretive about the decisions they make and skimpy in the information they share with the Co-op’s members – the customers who pay for the power the REC provides. The REC serves customers in 22 counties. It delivers power to 169,000 – 5,575 of them are in Fauquier. Electrical cooperatives were first formed in the 1930s to bring power to rural areas. Mike Biniek of Rappahannock County, Andrea Miller of Caroline County and Jack Manzari of Louisa County are running to replace three board members and reform how the REC is run. Biniek is running against Michael Lindsay in REC’s Region 1, Miller wants to unseat incumbent Linda Gray in Region 6 and Manzari is running against J. Mark Wood in Region 7. Miller said, “we need to make sure as members we know and understand what the board is doing.” The election is Aug. 22. Members will find a ballot in the July issue of Cooperative Living, the magazine that members receive. If a ballot is returned with no choice of candidate checked, a proxy vote is entered. That’s one of the problems, reformers say, because it ensures the same people are returned
to the board. “Many return the ballot unmarked. They (current board members) then vote themselves back in,” Biniek said of the incumbents. CHRIS SHIPE Board members serve three-year terms. Seth Heald, an REC member and a founder of Repower REC, an organization pressing for change, said REC board members receive $2,000 per month plus $500 per day for travel and expenses when members are handling REC business, “figures that for a long time were never disclosed.” Martin said that if the REC has a fund for members unable to pay utility bills, she would donate her board pay to it if she’s elected. Manzari said he’d create an endowed scholarship with his board pay for students from Louisa County. He said he does support board members receiving pay to attend board training and continuing education. Biniek said he’s served without pay on other boards and that he is “willing to investigate” forgoing compensation if he’s elected to the REC board. Chris Shipe, the current chairman of the nine-member board and the board member who represents Fauquier County, says the board conducts its business meetings and handles elec-

tions in the same way as other cooperatives and entities such as banks. “There are things we could do better –- we’re evolving and improving,” Shipe said. “There are always things we can do to be more transparent and we’re willing to do that.” He maintains that board members are accessible to members and information is available, though the reformers say it’s not so easy. Email addresses and phone numbers for board members aren’t provided on the REC website. There are contact numbers and email addresses for residential and business customers to reach the REC office. Shipe said board members stopped giving individual email addresses because RePower shared the addresses with various interest groups during the last rate case. Shipe got so many emails that it clogged his inbox. Many came “from folks all over the U.S. that wanted to express an opinion on REC but had no stake in the matter,” Shipe said. The chairman said the REC’s audited financial statements are available to members. The bylaws the board follows are posted on the REC website, myrec.coop. Shipe lives in Berryville in Clarke County and heads the Loudoun Mutual Insurance Company. He’s in his seventh year on the REC board. While the meeting where board members are elected are open, monthly business meetings of the board are not – something the re-
formers say they would change. “One area where I disagree [with the reform slate] is having open livestreamed meetings. I don’t want Rappahannock Electric to turn into a political meeting,” said Shipe. He’s concerned that people will “act up for the cameras.” Martin, one of the reform candidates, said REC board meeting minutes should be posted online and members should at least be able to listen to board meetings from home. The reformers and Heald question the REC’s agreement with the Old Dominion Electric Cooperative that runs for 45 years. “The REC must buy 95 percent of its power from ODEC and it’s paying above market rates,” Heald said. “There’s a lack of transparency. A reader of Cooperative magazine wouldn’t know about it.” Martin added, “without being able to see the agreement, we don’t know whether there is any negotiating room” to alter the agreement. “The REC has rather high rates. All members are potentially suffering from the agreement,” Biniek said. Shipe said the reformers’ claim is false. “We have a diversified portfolio through ODEC. Over time it is consistently lower – conversely at any given time it may be slightly higher. What ODEC allows us to do is provide pricing stability and group purchasing,” he said.

Proposed Warrenton budget maintains current tax rate Town Council members question nonprofit contributions By Robin Earl
Times Staff Writer
Warrenton Town Council considered funding requests from Warrenton-based nonprofit organizations at the June 6 Town Council work session. Council members have been hammering out the 2019-2020 budget since early April. They debated details on health insurance, onetime expenses through capital improvement projects (including an urgent – and unexpected – technology need) and considered personnel changes. The money tentatively allocated for nonprofits represents only 1 percent of the total general fund. Town Councilman Polster (at large) started the discussion by stating that he is not in favor of using town money to contribute to any outside agencies. “It’s like taking taxpayer money and telling people which charities to donate to.” In this year’s proposed budget, which was slated to be voted on June 11, it is recommended that the town contribute to 15 local nonprofits: Allegro Community School of the Arts ($5,000), Boys and Girls Club of Fauquier ($10,000), Fauquier Cadre ($2,000), Fauquier Community Action Committee/Head Start/Bright
Stars ($10,000), Fauquier Community Child Care ($4,500), Fauquier Community Food Bank ($3,750), Fauquier Family Shelter ($6,700), Fauquier Free Clinic ($10,000), Fauquier Historical Society ($10,000), Gloria Faye Dingus Music Alliance ($10,000), Leadership Fauquier ($3,000), Literacy Volunteers of Fauquier County ($2,500), Lord Fairfax Community College ($7,500), Piedmont Dispute Resolution Center ($1,000) and Winter Celebration of the Arts ($5,000). All the groups submitted written requests for the funding and some representatives attended a public hearing on the budget May 14, to make a personal appeal. Funds to nonprofits are disbursed quarterly. Several councilmen believe that the town should have better criteria for funding non-government groups. Vice Mayor Robert Kravetz (Ward 4) said when deciding which groups to give to, “We all have likes and dislikes. We need to have consistent policies.” Mayor Carter Nevill said, “We need to rethink the way we give (to nonprofit agencies). There is a sense of entitlement. They base their budgets on an expectation” that they’ll receive this money. He added, “We need to have criteria. There is an expectation of deliverables, but
many don’t deliver.” Kravetz cautioned, “We need to decide what we want them to deliver.” Councilman Jerry Wood (Ward 1) had a different take on the services that nonprofits provide, “These are very, very important projects. We have to remember that government could never do it for this price.” Town Manager Brandie Schaeffer said that if council moves forward with the budget as proposed, she has been directed by council to inform outside agencies of a midyear reporting requirement. In that case, if the nonprofits scheduled to receive money from the town do not submit a status report at the sixmonth mark, the second half of the money may not be disbursed. A vote to approve the proposed $25.98 million budget was scheduled for after press time on Tuesday, June 11. The final proposed budget includes $17.6 million for the general fund, $8.2 million in the utility fund and $3.93 million for general fund capital improvement projects. The budget is based on maintaining the current real estate property tax rate of .05¢ per $100 of assessed value.

Storms soak Warrenton
At the June 6 Warrenton Town Council work session, several speakers lamented damage to Town Hall sustained during recent rainstorms. During the budget discussion, Town Councilman Sean Polster (at large) said, “It’s been a rough couple of weeks. We’ve had to deal with a power outage with no backup battery, flooding in the basement, black mold and asbestos.” Town Manager Brandie Schaeffer explained that Polster was making the point that the town would “like to have an emergency response plan and set some money aside to ensure we are further preparing ourselves for disasters. For example, generators would help us during a power outage and not all buildings have them.” Schaeffer elaborated, “We were without power for a period of 18 hours, so the sump pumps were down. The drain alone could not keep up with the rain so there was some water damage in the basement of Town Hall. During the remediation process, some mold was found behind the walls from a previous flood. That is being remediated as well.” She added, “These are pretty common occurrences.” Frank Cassidy, Warrenton community development director, clarified that $5,000 from the general fund will cover the emergency repairs, but “there is additional work which needs to be done as part of best practices to remedy the mold and asbestos.”

Galante, Foster win Democratic primaries By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer
Laura Galante of Marshall defeated Tristan Shields on Tuesday for the Democratic Party nomination to challenge Republican Michael Webert in November for the 18th District seat in the Virginia House of Delegates. In the 88th District race, Jessica Foster of Remington beat Kecia Evans of Stafford for the Democratic nomination. Foster will challenge incumbent Republican Mark Cole for the seat in the House of Delegates. Galante couldn’t be reached for comment by press time about her victory; she earned 70 percent of the vote to just under 30 percent for Shields, who was the Democratic nominee but lost to Webert in 2017. Galante carried Fauquier County with nearly 71 percent of the vote. Shields is a musician and media producer from Rixeyville in Culpeper County. He said in a statement after the returns came in: “I want to congratulate Laura on her victory today in the 18th District Democratic primary. The road moving forward will be tough, but she will have the support of the Democrats in Culpeper, Fauquier, Rappahannock and Warren counties, including mine. We are at a time where the stakes are high for democracy in Virginia. The Virginia legislature will be playing a crucial role, both for our state and the nation. I truly hope she can flip the district blue in November.” Shields also thanked those who supported him. Galante worked in cybersecurity for the Defense Intelligence Agency and with a private cyber-intelligence team. In 2017, she started a cybersecurity consulting practice, Galante Strategies. She said she supports boosting the future of agriculture by supporting “earn to learn” opportunities – apprenticeships and on-the-job training – and pairing those with
know-how in project management, marketing and communication. She said more work needs to be done to expand access to broadband internet by exploring new technologies such as road-adhering fiber and working with telecommunications and electric co-ops. Galante calls for “cost transparency” in the health care system so patients know the cost of various tests and medical procedures upfront. Galante also supports passing the Equal Rights Amendment. “It’s long overdue,” she said. The candidate described her style of addressing problems this way: “I dig in not only on a policy level but on the community level.” The 18th District includes parts of Fauquier, Culpeper and Warren counties and all of Rappahannock County. “I really worked hard for this,” Foster said about her win. She said she’ll be taking a break before jumping into the November election campaign. Foster won slightly more than 74 percent of the vote to just over 25 percent for Kecia Evans of Stafford. She won Fauquier County with 82 percent of the vote. The 88th District includes part of southern Fauquier County and part of Stafford and Spotsylvania County and part of the city of Fredericksburg. “I’m running based on the last two years. Since 2017, it’s looked like Virginians really want a change. I think it’s time,” said Foster early in the campaign. She works as a criminal defense attorney. Foster “seems to hit it right on the topics,” said a voter coming out of M.M. Pierce Elementary School in Remington who didn’t want to give his name. He said he was thinking particularly of what he heard her say about equality and support for child care. Reach James Ivancic at jivancic@ fauquier.com.

Sheriff Mosier defeats Cochrane in GOP primary See SHERIFF, page 4 Department, took nearly 28 percent of the vote in New Baltimore for his best showing. Mosier took at least 72 percent of the vote in every precinct. There’s no Democratic Party challenger facing Mosier in the Nov. 5 general election. Mosier campaigned on his record over the past four years, including securing accreditation for the Sheriff’s Office and his outreach to the community, an effort that includes town halls throughout the county where he listens to the concerns of residents and business people and shares information. Cochrane saw the Mosier approach as politicizing the office to some degree. He also questioned the sheriff’s spending decisions, including new hats for staff and the cost incurred to receive accreditation. Haywood Coppage of Warrenton voted for Mosier at the Warrenton Community Center polling site. “I think the sheriff has done a fantastic job. I don’t think much of the other guy,” Coppage said of Cochrane. Joe Tutt came out of the Marshall precinct polling site at the Ruritan
Club and said he voted for Mosier. “I’ve known him for a few years now. He’s done an excellent job,” Tutt said. A few weeks before Election Day, Mosier expressed confidence based on the reaction from the public on the campaign trail. “I’ve had positive comments in all parts of the county,” he said. He said that residents seem to appreciate the town halls. “We keep the people informed and provide transparency” into the workings of the sheriff’s office, Mosier said. Mosier first took office in 2015 after defeating three-term incumbent Charlie Ray Fox. In a second term, Mosier said he wanted to continue working on professional development opportunities for his staff, stepping up recruitment and retention of officers, making technical upgrades and reaccreditation of the sheriff’s office. Mosier said he also wanted to reduce criminal recidivism and to expand the school resource officer program. Looking ahead, Mosier said on election night that he’s going to take “one day at a time.” Reach James Ivancic at jivancic@fauquier.com.
Maybach wins Republican primary for commissioner of revenue COMMISSIONER, from page 1 what did it,” Maybach said. He was also thankful for the support of his family and his wife. The commissioner of revenue is the chief tax-assessing official and serves a four-year term. The office maintains property-tax and business-tax records. The commissioner also provides tax revenue projections to the county. Joe Tutt voted for Maybach at the Marshall Ruritan Club. “I talked to him and liked what he had to say,” Tutt said. Maybach has experience in financial services going back 15 years, starting as area sales manager for
Capital One Auto Finance. He is currently a vice president and branch manager for Regional Acceptance Corp., a national auto finance company. Maybach pointed to his management experience in the private sector. “I love finance and dealing with numbers,” the candidate said during the course of the campaign. “There’s also my attention to detail and my compliance training through the American Bankers Association.” The latter involves keeping professionals up-to-date on regulations, safeguarding personal information, and the like. If elected, he said one of his duties
will be to provide revenue projections to the county board of supervisors. He said he will be prepared to provide accurate information to assist them in their decision-making. Wiberg has been an assessor for Loudoun County for the past five years. Prior to that, he did property appraisal work for 13 years as a contract employee, traveling the state. D’Urso endorsed Wiberg’s candidacy. Wiberg also picked up endorsements from counterparts in Loudoun, Clarke, Essex and Mathews counties who know of his work ethic.

Susan Pauling enters race for Center District school board seat By Robin Earl
Times Staff Writer

While she was SUSAN PAULING raising her children, she went to massage therapy school and worked in that field up until 11 years ago, when she and her family moved to Virginia. She said all these different experiences have added to her skills. She is confident she has the “ability to gather information and resources to make an informed decision. I’m not going to pretend to have all the answers. If someone asks me a question, I may have to say, ‘let me check on that. Give me a 24-hour window to get research together and consider it.’”
When advising Susan Pauling on her run for the Center District seat on the Fauquier County School Board, Warrenton Town Councilman Sean Polster (at large) encouraged her to get out and talk to people, to find them where they gather. She remembered, “I told him, ‘I’m not going to stalk people.’” She’s over that now. After securing 117 of 125 signatures last week, she laughed, “I’m past worrying about stalking people.” After all, she said, communicating is what she is all about. “I’m a communicator. I want to be the positive voice for change on the school board.” Pauling said she has no problem with the current school board representative for Center District, Brian Gorg, who is stepping down at the end of the year. “I always felt he had the best interests of the children, the best interests of the community at heart. I felt he was fighting for our School board goals Pauling understands that partly as kids. a result of a disparity in parent in“When Brian announced he volvement, not all schools have the wasn’t going to run again … nobody same resources, and that’s somewas coming to the table.” thing she’d like to change. “At some Pauling said she had been apschools, the kids can’t use the playproached before about running for ground because the equipment is a school board seat, but this time broken.” She said that some schools she decided to jump in.

ing would also like to have an influence on how technology is used in the schools. “I’d like to reevaluate how children are using devices in the schools.” She asks the question: “When kids bring their own devices to school, is that adding or subtracting from their education?” Pauling believes that “we are competing for the attention of our children. The subject comes up in almost every conversation I have with other parents.” Pauling is also advocating for increased communication from the school board. She acknowledges that families are busy. “Our families are hopping. I’d like to make it easier for people to get more and better information about what’s going on in the schools. The more tools we use to bring people into the conversation, the better.” Another point in her platform is students’ mental and physical health. She is concerned about depression, anxiety, the potential for suicide. “Something needs to be done. How can we bring resources to bear on those issues?” “My kids don’t want to use the bathroom in school, because of all the vaping.” And she says that statistics show that drunk driving is up in Northern Virginia. “What resources are we bringing in as a community, to make sure children and parents have what they need?”
Campaigning
Pauling is looking forward to adding her voice to the school board. “Running scares me more than the position. It’s intimidating.” And connecting with constituents is time consuming too. “I’m a woman of many words,” she admitted. She expanded her canvassing beyond her own neighborhood. “I wanted to move beyond people who already know me.” She says she took a map when she knocked on doors, because some people don’t know what district they are in. Of course, some folks were reluctant to offer their signature to allow her to get on the ballot. “Some won’t sign,” she said, “They say, ‘I don’t know you; I don’t know what you stand for.’ That’s OK. We’ll get there.” She finished collecting all her signatures over the weekend – then celebrated with ice cream at Carousel. She’s been using social media to spread the word about her candidacy. “I was up until 1 a.m. creating my logo,” she said. Pauling has compared notes with Rachel Bongiovi, who is also running for the Center District school board seat in November. “We agree that one of us will be on the board; the other will remain a fabulous resource. Whether I’m on the board or not, I will always be involved.” Reach Robin Earl at rearl@fauquier.com

School board candidate Shelly Norden offers a teacher’s perspective By Robin Earl

fied in that subject. It may not be the student’s fault.” Norden added, “Ask any student who has had the greatest impact on them in the school system. At least 90 percent will say a teacher. Yet, we spend the most money on the positions that have no direct impact on education. We need to focus on filling our classrooms with qualified teachers, not creating more high-paying positions up town.” She acknowledged, “I have been told that I am too tough on administration. However, in my view, these are the people who are failing those of us on the front lines.”
Shelly Norden of Broad Run is running for the Scott District seat on the Fauquier County School Board. As a teacher in the district for 17 years, she has a unique perspective. For her, it’s not theoretical; decisions made at the school board level directly affect her, her colleagues and her students. She addresses the teacher shortage crisis, for instance, with firsthand knowledge: “I know what needs to be done to keep good teachers in Fauquier County. I know why they are leaving and know, firsthand, the struggles they face every day in the classroom Fiscal responsibility Norden thinks of herself as a … So much of it has to do with how teacher, but also, a taxpayer. “I teachers are being treated.” would love to see more transparenAs an example, Norden said that cy in spending,” she said. “Sixty-one even though state code requires cents out of every local tax dollar a planning period for high school teachers, “they are forfeiting that goes toward education.

Shelly Norden is a candidate for the Scott District seat on the school board. As an example, Norden said, “The superintendent recently made the decision to do away with homework over the weekend and to not allow homework to count more than 10 percent. Did they talk to any students about this decision?”
Inclusivity
Norden would like to see parents welcomed into the school board’s decision-making process as well. She said, “All of the school board committees should be made up of more than just school board members and central office staff. Members of the community should be invited to join. It’s important to recognize that a few people don’t have all the answers. By opening these committees to more members, we will see better policy decisions result.” Norden suggested that school board members should be bound by term limits – no one should occupy a school board seat for more than two terms. “We need to fill the seats with new people every few years who will bring unique perspectives to the school system.”
Improving employee relations
Once again speaking out on behalf of school division employees, Norden said that when people on the front lines have issues with administration, they have no recourse. “HR works with central office and in my experience, sides with them. There needs to be a neutral force that steps in when people on the frontline have an issue with leadership. “I would also like to see HR housed in its own building and not in the same building as central office,” she said. She offered another practical step toward a team approach: “I would love to see a 360 evaluation implemented. Currently, a teacher’s evaluation is based on the write up of one administrator. Teachers have no say in administrative reviews; as a result, there is no way to get rid of bad leadership. If teachers had a say in administrative evaluations, it would foster a team-like environment.”
The decision to run
If Norden were to win the seat on the school board, she would have to
give up her teaching position at Kettle Run. She would forfeit her teacher’s salary for the roughly $12,000 annual salary of a school board member. Norden was selected as Kettle Run’s Teacher of the Year and the VFW Teacher of the Year three years ago. She has developed one of the top five high school journalism programs in the state and the yearbook was ranked one of the top 13 best in the country. She also teaches an award-winning film class and English 12. Prior to teaching, she was a television producer for the CBS and Fox affiliate in West Palm Beach, Florida. She explained, “This was a very hard decision. If elected, I am giving up teaching students and content that I love; however, I realize a seat on the board is the only way to change things.” Norden’s campaign has led her to public events to talk with voters. And, she said, “I’ve been posting a lot on social media. I have a group on Facebook called Shelly Norden for School Board. I’ve also got a website where I am posting information and encouraging people to help with my campaign (shellynordenforschoolboard.com).” She added, “As a journalist, I realize the importance of backing everything up with factual information. I’ve done a great deal of research on my own time – including starting the website citizencents.com.” According to the website, its mission is to share “names, positions, years on the job, education and salaries of school employees making $10,000 or more a year in base salary, as furnished by the agencies in response to VA Freedom of Information Act requests.” When asked if she’s gotten blowback from the administration on her outspoken approach to the problems at the school division, Norden replied, “Yes. I’d better leave it at that.” In November, Norden will be on the ballot with current school board member Suzanne Sloane and challenger Michael Hammond. Reach Robin Earl at rearl@fauquier.com

Special general assembly session will focus on gun violence GOP lawmakers representing Fauquier see no reason to change gun laws By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer
Two Republicans representing areas of Fauquier County in the Virginia General Assembly remain opposed to any new gun control legislation in the wake of the May 31 killings of 12 at a Virginia Beach municipal building by a gunman. Gov. Ralph Northam has summoned legislators to return to Richmond on July 9 “to address the emergency of gun violence in the commonwealth.” The Democratic governor said he will ask for “votes and laws, not thoughts and prayers” on proposals such as: • Universal background checks; • A ban on assault weapons, to include suppressors and bump stocks; • An extreme risk protective order; • Reinstating the one-gun-a-month law; • Child access prevention; • Requiring people to report lost and stolen firearms; and • Expanding local authority to regulate firearms, including in government buildings. Del. Mark Cole, a Republican representing the 88th District, which includes a section of southern Fau-
quier, said, “The special session being called for next month [will] address gun control proposals that have already been considered and rejected DEL. MARK COLE by the General Assembly. As far as I can tell, the governor's proposals would not have prevented the tragedy in Virginia Beach. The session will cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars – funds that could be spent on increasing security in our schools and public buildings.” Cole said he has supported legislation to enhance mental health services in the commonwealth. “We need to recognize that the problem isn’t about the guns people legally own and use. It’s about angry and depraved individuals intent on doing harm to our fellow citizens,” Cole said. “I do not believe you make people safer by making it harder to defend themselves,” Cole added. State Sen. Jill Vogel, a Republican representing the 27th District, said that while “I am horrified by what happened and share in the grief
of the Virginia Beach community, this should not be political, and it does not change my position on S e c o n d Amendment SEN. JILL VOGEL rights.” The 27th District includes all of Fauquier County. Vogel said that among the ideas that have been suggested are letting localities make government buildings gun-free zones and putting a limit on ammunition magazines. “Neither would impact an employee entering the building intent on murdering his colleagues, but would restrict the lawful exercise of Second Amendment rights. In fact, those restrictions were in place in Virginia Beach,” Vogel said. Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st, said she felt hopeful that members from both sides of the aisle might be ready for compromise. Guzman said the fact that more than half of the delegates from the Virginia Beach area are members of the GOP gives her a reason to feel optimistic. “For me, inaction is enabling these acts of violence to occur and we need to do something,” Guzman said. “I think now that it has hit home, I hope my Republican colleagues … would now act on these measures. If they don’t, they are going to have to do
some explaining to their constit uents and the familes of these victims.” Guzman said she would gladly vote in support of the DEL. ELIZABETH red-flag bill as GUZMAN well as measures to close the background check loophole and to revive the law that limits gun purchases to one per month. The red-flag bill permits police or family members to petition a state court to order the temporary removal of firearms from a person who may present a danger to others or him or herself. “No one in Virginia needs [to buy] more than one gun a month,” Guzman said. “We don’t need guns in public buildings and churches. I know some of my colleagues have guns in the chamber and that makes me uncomfortable.” Del. Michael Webert, Republican representing the 18th District, is a member of the militia, police and public safety committee, which would consider any firearms legislation. Webert couldn’t be reached for comment for this story. The 18th District includes a portion of Fauquier County. Reach James Ivancic at jivancic@fauquier.com.
Shared-use path on Rogues Road would be welcome By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer
The shared-use path that’s part of the planned Rogues Road improvement got a thumbs up from a couple of visitors attending a public forum held Tuesday at Kettle Run High School near the project site. “I like the shared-use path. Kids could ride their bikes to the ice cream shop,” said Ike Broaddus, co-owner of Old Busthead Brewing Company in Vint Hill. He was referring to an ice cream shop planned for Vint Hill. A 10-foot wide shared-use path from Grapewood Drive to Kennedy Road will be part of the project that adds a northbound left turn lane from Rogues Road onto Kennedy Road. The aim is to ease traffic flow and improve safety and drainage. About a third of a mile of road is affected. Broaddus said creating a trail through a wooded area off Academic Avenue on public school property would be a welcome future enhancement. John Zampino lives in Catlett. While he doesn’t travel thought the project area on a daily basis, he does so occasionally, and he attended the forum to learn more about the project. “I live in Fauquier and I care about what goes on here. I want to see improvements but I’m one of those citizens who wants to keep the county’s charm,” Zampino said. He said the project’s goal is to make the road safer “and that’s fine.” Being a cyclist, he said he likes having a shared-use path. The path will connect with an existing one within Vint Hill.
TIMES STAFF PHOTO/JAMES IVANCIC John Zampino of Catlett views a map of the planned Rogues Road improvement. The project was sought by Fauquier County and the roughly $5 million cost has been funded, according to Michael Jacobs, location and design engineer with the Virginia Department of Transportation. It will be a while before work gets underway. The timetable calls for right of way acquisition and utility relocation starting next spring, advertising for bids during the fall of 2021 and comple-
tion of the project during the winter of 2022. Public comments about the project are being received until June 13. Comments can be emailed to David.Cubbage@VDOT.Virginia.gov.

Fauquier Times | June 12, 2019
It’s past time to discuss reasonable gun laws It’s a shame, but really not surprising, that it took another mass shooting to focus Virginia lawmakers’ attention on gun violence. In the wake of the May 31 mass shooting at a Virginia Beach municipal building that left 13 people dead, Gov. Ralph Northam has called a rare summer special session July 9 in hopes of encouraging the General Assembly to focus solely on gun legislation and what – if anything—might be done to keep Virginians safe from gunfire. Given the hundreds of thousands of guns already in the commonwealth, limiting deaths and injuries by gunfire can seem like an impossible goal. For starters, we have limited information about the extent of the problem in Virginia. Localities and the state track gun deaths but not gun injuries, for instance, and even the numbers state and local governments do track are not well known. Few people outside of law enforcement, for example, know that Fauquier County had 14 gun-related deaths in 2017, while Prince William County had 21. The number mostly reflects suicide deaths via gunfire, which are usually not reported in the local media. In fact, about 60 percent of the 1,028 gun deaths in Virginia in 2017 were the result of suicide, according to the state medical examiner’s annual report. We do know, however, that deaths by gunfire are on the rise. In 2017, the most recent for which statistics are available, showed the highest number of firearm fatalities since 1968, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. There were 39,773 gun deaths in the U.S. in 2017, up by more than 1,000 from the year before. Nearly two-thirds were suicides. Virginia is a Dillon Rule state, which means localities cannot pass their own gun regulations for the most part. And gun bills that do come before the Virginia General Assembly get little media attention because they are usually doomed from the start. All are funneled through tiny Republican-controlled House and Senate subcommittees where they are swiftly defeated in party-line votes in 7:30 a.m. meetings, mostly attended only by the legislators themselves and a few gun industry lobbyists. State Del. John Bell, D-87th, recently called these lobbyists “the most powerful people in the room.” From our perspective, the mystery shrouding the full extent of gun violence in our communities is reason enough for lawmakers to focus their attention solely on gun violence. Bell sits on the six-member House of Delegates subcommittee where he says about 300 gun-related bills have been killed since 2016. He says Virginia could benefit from simply committing to more closely studying gun violence and mass shootings in particular. Bell, a retired Air Force officer, likened the task to what the military does to better understand accidental deaths in their ranks. Each accident is carefully studied to identify patterns of behavior and events that military officials might be able to identify in time to prevent the next tragedy. Bell said he would like either the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission, the General Assembly’s research arm, or one of the state’s universities to commit to studying Virginia’s gun violence, with the help of state funding. That seems like a reasonable goal. But it’s hardly the only reasonable step Virginia lawmakers might consider in their July special session. Let’s hope they fully commit to wrestling with this deadly issue and finding common ground.

FAUQUIER FLASHBACKS: FROM THE FAUQUIER TIMES
In June 1970, 5-year-old horseman Rex Cooper was photographed practicing with his mount, Terry, at his home ring at Bethel. He was preparing for the CasanovaWarrenton Horse Show, held June 13 at Dogpatch Farm on the Springs Road.
75 Years Ago June 15, 1944 Baldwin Day Spilman Jr. has sold 204 acres of his Elway Hall property, according to an announcement from the office of J. Green Carter, which made the sales. Mrs. Robert C. Winmill purchased the north portion of Elway Hall, containing 199 acres, and John Mason McClanahan bought a five-acre tract adjoining his property on The Springs Road. Nellie Wade Early of Bealeton, Virginia Armstrong of Midland, and Merle Louise Updike of Orlean were among the graduates at Mary Washington College on May 30, where they were awarded bachelor of science degrees in education. Maj. J. F. Martin, who has completed 155 missions flying fighter support for the British and American forces, addressed the Warrenton Rotary club last week. 50 Years Ago June 12, 1969 An application has been filed with the Fauquier Planning Commission by the John A. Cooper Co. of Arkansas to rezone 4,766 acres at North Wales for development of a planned community of nearly 8,000 homes, and ultimately as many as 30,000 persons. Before the owners can proceed with development of the tract, former estate of Walter P. Chrysler Jr., it must be rezoned from its present agricultural zoning to the newly enacted Planned Community 1 category. The Warrenton Supply Company,
second-oldest automobile dealership in the county, is discontinuing the automobile sales and service department June 30, President H. H. Carter announced this week. The garage building has been leased to Burke Motor Co., the county’s oldest dealership, and J. P. Burke will begin operations there July 1. 25 Years Ago June 15, 1994 A funding package from the Virginia Department of Transportation has brought the Town of Warrenton a giant step closer to making Walker Drive a reality, while at the same time securing access to the town’s industrial park and Department of Agriculture Laboratory. Two Fauquier County residents have been tapped to serve as members of Gov. George Allen’s Commission on Champion Schools. State Delegate Jay Katzen and local businessman H. Lynn Hopewell were appointed to the commission, which will examine academic standards, accountability through testing, parental and community involvement and safety. Superintendent Tony Lease was photographed hugging Taylor Junior High School cafeteria worker Ruth Drone, who was honored at a ceremony for 35 years’ service in the schools. Addison Lightfoot, director of the music department at Fauquier High, was also honored for 35 years’ service. –Compiled by John T. Toler
OPINION
Fauquier Times | www.fauquier.com | June 12, 2019
A Rushmore moment and remembering American greatness I recently returned home after a seven-week, 12,000-mile sojourn to the “Old West” … a land of majestic panoramas and jaw-dropping vistas. It was also a history lesson in pioneer character building. At one stop, Mount Rushmore, I especially felt the need to reflect upon Americana. … our culture and the greatness of our leaders who not only shaped our national destiny, but, who, through their strength of character, left an indelible mark upon our national identity. Never in our history do we need to be reminded more of what true greatness is. Early in his administration, our president said that he belonged on Mt. Rushmore because he was a better president than all of them with the possible exception of Abraham Lincoln. Granted that his bravado was directed at a fawning political base, but, I believe that he believes it. Now most of us, but not all, would dispute that there is little likelihood that room would be made for our current president on Rushmore. Most of us, but not all, realize that he is far removed from the ideals that Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt personified. I say this because we, as Americans, honor integrity, vision, compassion and courage. We do not immortalize weakness. And, make no bones about it, our president is weak. Weak people surround themselves with sycophants and relish in false praise. They distort truth through their merchants of doubt and create disharmony as a control mechanism. They deride the achievements of others while touting their own questionable accomplishments. They are pettily tyrannous, engage in the blame game, and bully others who do not fall into line. And, when they do not get their way; pout, fly into rages, plan revenges and administer payback. Strong people, on the other hand, have a sense of equilibrium and are in control of themselves. They work honestly and openly with others to accomplish goals and acknowledge diversity as a positive influence. They have vision, take responsibility, and, at the crucial moment, stand up to be counted. These are not only the
characteristics of the strong, but also of the winner who recognizes that the only true authority is moral authority. If these observations are correct, then why does a third of the country still support this president? I have heard repeatedly from my neighbors, who are representative of his base, that they do take exception with his corrupting hand, his lack of truthfulness and the chaos he constantly creates. But, they also say, “You need to fight fire with fire.” And, “His style is aggressive because it needs to be in order to confront the political dysfunction around him.” I understand their point of view, but my argument is not so much with the message as it is with the messenger. To me it is not a matter of style but character, which is essential in dealing with domestic and international challenges. In regard to these challenges, I believe our president consistently fails on substance. He fails because he distorts reality in order to claim the adulation that comes from dubious victory. He does not seek the accomplishment of meaningful goals that benefit the common good. Teddy Roosevelt once said the strong man is the one who is actually in the arena, who, though his face is marred by dust and sweat, strives valiantly and spends himself in a worthy cause. This is true strength of character. As Americans, we yearn for national greatness. Some of us say, “I want America to be great again.” I agree with this yearning. And, we achieve this greatness not by turning away from the values and ideals that helped shape our national identity, but by embracing them. It is our heritage. Mount Rushmore is built on a foundation of granite as were the presidents honored there. They stood up to the challenges of their times and did not crumble under the burdens placed upon them. We must stand up to the challenges of our times; and, if we exhibit the character traits that we as Americans avow and have immortalized on Rushmore, we will find our way. DON BACHMANN Marshall
Whatever happened Flowers stolen to George’s flag? I have several family members Doesn't anyone out there have any other news or opinions or ideas other than politics? Haven't we all had enough on TV and radio? It used to be fun reading the short quips from our local neighbors on the opinion page of the Fauquier Democrat. Now all it seems on the opinion page is about politics, local or otherwise. How 'bout something different, like: Doesn't any one wonder what happened to George's flag? “Who's George?” you might say. I'm referring to the wonderful welcoming White Warrenton bull, standing proudly in the field on (U.S.) Route 29 approaching Warrenton. He used to have the flag flying next to him, waving for all to see. Now it's gone and has been for months. Did someone steal it; did a storm blow it away; is it gone because it offended a person? It's not even up flowing for all to see this Memorial Day weekend. How very sad...
buried in Catlett Cemetery and always put flowers on their graves for Memorial Day. Well, I went on Sunday, May 29 and I usually leave them on about a week. I went back Saturday, June 1, to take them off and found four missing. I’m really upset; why would someone take flowers from graves? This has never happened to me before, but I ‘ve heard of others having the same problems. I usually put more than one, but was obeying the new rules. Our manager of the cemetery doesn’t take care of the cemetery very well. There are holes where if people step in them, it would cause them to get hurt. When they mow, there are several stones that are chipped off. Whoever took them, I hope you can live with your conscience. If someone needs flowers for their loved ones, just ask me. I think the side gate should be replaced and kept not locked, but closed, as I hear people are parking over there late at night drinking, doing drugs, having sex or whatever. What is wrong with people?

Praise for a local small business We live at a fast-paced time and are normally too busy to recognize someone who goes above and beyond what is expected of them. When we are in a hurry and involved in a project, we shop “big-box” stores to acquire the material we need. While the employees in such stores are usually helpful, they do not feel led to add the personal touch as those who own and run a small independent business. Such is the case with Groves Hardware in Remington. Based on our recent experience we can attest to the fact that Mr. (Paul) Groves is a businessman who has his customers’ best interest at heart. We will take it a step further and say his business is built on “the golden rule.” From day one, he has treated us as if we are his only customers, and he takes personal interest in our construction problems and issues. He is one of the most honest businessmen with whom we have
Second data center not in Remington’s best interests Unfortunately, it looks like a "done deal" for Remington to get a second data center, but not in the zoned light industrial land near the power plants. This one will be in the center of the district, where our Citizen's Comprehensive Planning Committee allowed a gradual build-out for a future 190 homes. A comprehensive plan is meant to carefully balance differing land uses in order to maximize potential, while minimizing nuisances to residential areas. The proposed data center will border about 125 existing homes and will consist of six enormous impervious buildings (five at 500 feet long by 325 feet wide and the sixth even larger), with half the site draining directly into Tinpot
Run. This is not good planning. With a mere sketch to go by, we can’t determine stormwater run-off into Tinpot Run, or see the enormity of six gigantic windowless buildings, a 500,000 gallon water tank, the height of a perimeter fence topped with barb-wire, or even the intensity of nighttime lighting. We can’t hear beforehand the decibels of 43 industrial air conditioners running 24/7, or the sound of diesel back-up generators. We can’t know whether there are potential health effects to homeowners adjacent to the proposed 5-acre Dominion Power substation, or if Lee’s Glen homeowners will be terribly impacted by property value losses. Why is this proposal being
11
considered for this parcel? This could be a terrible blow to Remington’s recreational and heritage-tourism vision, as the proposed second data center will be adjacent to the Town Expansion area, the Journey through Hallowed Ground’s southern gateway and the historic Town of Remington. Remington has four bicycle tours, a walking tour, the freight depot museum about to enter its second phase, an ongoing Battlefield Park planning process, and new businesses opening on Main Street. Our economic plan for our own district doesn’t seem to be a county priority, nor does future possible flooding from over-taxing Tinpot Run seem to be a concern.
dealt in many a day. We started pricing material a year ago in anticipation of building a house. Mr. Groves listed all materials that we would need and gave us a price; we did not start the project until recently. He is so honest and generous, he told us the prices of the materials he quoted last year has gone down and gave us a new, lower price. There were foundation issues, Mr. Groves went above and beyond to advise what would be the best solution. If you have a building project, hardware or plumbing need, etc., and would like to be treated as a valued customer, you’ll enjoy a trip to Groves Hardware. There is an old adage that “customers are good for business” and he seems to operate with that in mind. KENNY AND ANN DOWDEN Culpeper
The county says "data centers are necessary" and we agree, but not by blowing up our own vision for our future. Put the second data center in the pre-planned Light Industrial area. The Lee’s Glen site should actually be the Southern Fauquier Sports Center for many obvious reasons. And please drop the pretense, county officials, that you know what’s best for the Remington Service District. We’ve heard it before - with the first power plant, the second power plant, the propane gas tank facility, the solar “farm” (which replaced a proposed park) and the first data center. Please stop meddling with our quality of life here because truly, enough is enough. RAY AND MARY ROOT Remington

Put on a happy face
Northern Virginia Surgical Arts opens in Warrenton By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer
Northern Virginia Surgical Arts started providing oral and facial surgical care to patients in Arlington in 1997, then opened an office in Gainesville in 2000 and another in Manassas Park in 2006. It continued its westward expansion with an office in Warrenton that opened in January. Dr. Joseph Arzadon, who founded the practice, said that he gets referrals from as far west as Culpeper and already has some patients who live in Warrenton. “I figured we should come closer to them,” he explained. Though currently open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, the Warrenton office will expand to five days a week by September, Arzadon said. Arzadon was raised in Alexandria and graduated from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry and the University of Connecticut School of Medicine. The other physicians in the practice are Dr. David Liang, Dr. Kenneth Blais and Dr. John J. McElveen.
Liang was born in Taiwan and graduated from the University of California, Columbia University College of Medicine and Emory University. Blais grew up in Seattle, Washington, and graduated from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and Louisiana State University. McElveen graduated from the Xavier University College of Pharmacy, the Howard University College of Dentistry and the University of Missouri Medical School. The oral and facial surgical services the team provides include facial cosmetic procedures, dental implants, bone grafting, and reconstructive and maxillofacial surgery. The surgeries can correct conditions, defects and injuries of the mouth, teeth, jaws and face. Arzadon said the practice uses “surgical navigation” -- computer-assisted surgery -- to guide placement of an implant. “It’s a very neat and accurate way of placing an implant in the mouth, just one instance of how it’s used,” he said.
Dr. Joseph Arzadon is shown in one of the treatment rooms with high-tech equipment that aids the doctor in precisely placing an implant in the patient’s mouth. A spa in a separate area of the 3,000 square foot office in Warrenton provides facials, chemical peels, Botox treatments, laser skin treatments and cosmetic surgery such as facelifts, eyelid surgery and nose reshaping. The doctors and staff of 25 employed by the practice rotate among the four offices. The Warrenton office at 361 Walker Drive, Suite 202 was the scene of an open house on June 6. Fauquier Chamber of Commerce President Joe Martin and staff welcomed the doctors and staff. “We hope to see more beautiful smiles in Fauquier County,” said Martin, before a ceremonial ribbon cutting. Visitors toured the office suite, talked to staff and enjoyed
offerings from a buffet table and drinks bar. More information about Northern Virginia Surgical Arts can be found on its website at www.novasurgicalarts.com. Appointments can be made by calling 703-379-2700. The practice participates with many insurance plans, but not Medicare. Patients are advised to check with their insurer about limits of coverage and any deductibles and co-payments. Reach James Ivancic at jivancic@fauquier.com

The tech in your car
About 11 years ago I was shopping for a new car. At that time, gas prices were rising and $5 per gallon seemed to be on the horizon, so I chose a Ford Escape hybrid. This car had technical features such as anti-lock brakes, numerous air bags, and security that would disable the ignition if a wrong key was used. And since my house calls are often in, around and beyond Fauquier, I also opted for a built-in screen/navigation system that was loaded from a hidden DVD drive. At that time, it was a fairly techy car. Let’s fast forward. About 210,000 miles later, it was finally time for a new car, and I was amazed at the smarter technology that came with it: keyless entry, push button motor start, remote motor ignition, car status check via an app on the phone, automatic rain sensor, automatic tailgate opener, a rear camera, and much more. Wow! Does it drive itself? We’re not there, yet. But just to be clear, although this newer technology greatly improves safety, that does not mean that one can afford to be less attentive. Please remember that texting while driving and/or holding a mobile device is always dangerous! My new tech-enhanced car is
KLAUS FUECHSEL WHAT’S UP DOK?
more convenient and safer. The ability to receive and make calls with a Bluetooth hands-free device is a must-have in my business. My new car allows me to accept a call by pushing a button on the steering wheel and initiate a new call by pushing another button to start your preferred speech recognition (the car’s default, or even Siri or Alexa). This allows me to get information and simple answers without moving my hands from the steering wheel. I’m still testing the system, but so far it has been like having an onboard secretary to answer questions about the weather, the route, the nearest gas station, schedule a task, call the wife … you name it. The built-in navigation system is even better than the old one, with a bigger screen, traffic info, and more. I love the yellow lights on my side mirrors which indicate a vehicle in my blind spot. The “lane keeping”
feature alerts me when the car drifts and takes steps to ensure that the vehicle stays in its lane. In addition, it has adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning with brake support. It warns me when I get too close to a car, and while cruising, automatically reduces my speed until a safer distance to the car in front has been reached. The “side sensing system,” that emits a warning when I get too close to an object on either side is a great help, too. There’s even a park assist feature to help me maneuver in tight situations. My manual describes that “with minimal actions on my part, my new car can virtually steer itself into or out of a parking spot.” I haven’t tried this yet, but it would certainly help when parallel parking on Main Street. As a techie, it’s exciting to think of all the possibilities one could download into the car’s computer; I will certainly keep my eyes open for future IT enhancements. However, with all of this car technology, one should look into cybersecurity to protect against car hacking. Technology can be misused. There are several movies and many YouTube videos in which cars are hacked to be driven remotely, causing dramatic mayhem.
That sounds far-fetched, but if it runs with a computer, it can be hacked. To wrap things up, I would like to point out some tech possibilities in the perhaps not-too-distant future. Eye tracking and sensor technology may soon be able to determine if the driver is distracted and react accordingly. A holographic info display might project driving directions and 3-D maps. Cars might communicate with each other. Cameras, including ones for night vision, will be available all around the car. Keys will be biometric, via fingerprint, voice, or eye scan authorization. The Consumer Electronics Show 2019 presented a flying taxi that might become available as early as 2020. Bosch foresees that “driverless electric shuttles will become a common sight in major cities all around the world.” Are you ready for self-driving cars?

TAKING HIS TALENTS TO NORMAN
Former Liberty football star Proctor transfers from UVA to Oklahoma By Fred Hodge
Special to the Times
Liberty High has Wyatt Teller in the NFL. Now former Eagle offensive lineman R.J. Proctor is entering the prime-time national spotlight as a potential starting offensive lineman for the University of Oklahoma. Proctor graduated from the University of Virginia in May with a bachelor’s degree and recently transferred to Oklahoma to begin graduate studies and play his final year of football. In Oklahoma less than two weeks, the 2015 LHS grad is in bliss said his mom. “He loves the University of Oklahoma. The campus is beautiful and the community and fans are great. He has transitioned very well with getting to know the team, coaches and adjusting to his new living and academic environment,” said Rosalind Proctor. Proctor plans to obtain his master’s degree in Human Relations with a concentration in Intercollegiate Athletics. See PROCTOR, page 16

BONDING MOMENT
Jeffrey Nelson and son Jordy, 16 months, celebrate after the leadline class at the Upperville Horse Show. More coverage, A19.
In 2015, Kettle Run High soccer star Kevin Coleman helped his Cougars win the Class 3A state title. He completed his sophomore year, then departed to Germany to play for the Kaiserslautern U-19 team. Guess what? He’s back in the U.S. In March the speedy wing midfielder signed with Orange County Soccer Club, a Division II team in Irvine, Calif. Coleman was 17 when he left. He’s 21 now. “It was a small town, bigger than Fauquier and different,” Coleman said of Kaiserslautern. “It probably took me six months to get through the shock.” Coleman played for Kaiserslautern in 2017 and 2018 while finishing his education online, he said. Coleman said he was home for a few months in 2018, when he thought over college offers before returning to play for another German club, SpVgg Bayreuth. Coleman started his first 11 games with the fourth division squad before accepting a position with Orange County, which competes in the United Soccer League, one level below Major League Soccer. “I’m happy that we were able to sign
Kevin,” said OCSC coach Braeden Cloutier. “He came to us in preseason and made an immediate impact with his pace and ability to score goals.” Coleman hopes his career takes off. “In the future I may move on back to Europe. That is my goal. Those are the best leagues. If I get the chance to play for my parent’s country, Ghana, I would consider it. But I would love to play for the U.S.,” he said.

‘They have everything I want’ Falcon distance specialist Matthews to run at George Mason By Fred Hodge
Special to the Times
The college recruiting process was eye-opening for Fauquier High track and cross country star Nick Matthews, who thought his early successes would open doors quickly. “You feel like you have done something good, but then it’s not good enough,” he said of the sparse responses to emails he sent to programs across the nation. “I came the realization comparing yourself to someone else always will lead you in the wrong direction.” The lack of reaction, while bothersome, prompted him to focus upon honing his running. The ensuing improvements drew more localized attention from George Mason University. Following a campus visit, Matthews signed in late May to continue his academic and athletic career with the Patriots. “He had his ups and downs like every kid does, but he really focused this year,” said Mark Scott, Fauquier’s distance coach. “The results convinced some schools he could go faster.” Matthews credits Mark Bjorkman, Fauquier’s head of guidance and an assistant track coach, for pointing out George Mason’s potential benefits and aiding with initial contact. “I was never super interested (at first), but I found out they have done some good things,” said Matthews, who was impressed with the resume

He’ll run middle distances at George Mason. of Andrew Gerard, GMU’s director of track and field. Gerard is entering his 14th year at the school and has won Atlantic-10 Conference men’s cross country and indoor and outdoor track titles. “I got a feel for the school,” said Matthews, saying the proximity was a plus after he began to consider the ramifications of leaving high school
and family. Plus, his mother, Lisa, is a Mason alumna. “They have everything I want,” he said, considering a business degree. Matthews said he was also looking at Penn State and Virginia Tech. Matthews said the plan is to continue with the middle distances races that are his forte. He expects to run
the 800 and 1,500 meters outdoor. Indoor, he said the 600 and 1,000 are possibilities as well as are relay events. Matthews said he has been involved with athletics his entire life, running and also playing flag football in middle school. See MATTHEWS, page 18
TAKING HIS TALENTS TO NORMAN From PROCTOR, page 15

R.J. Proctor graduated from the University of Virginia last month with a BA in sociology.
He received his Bachelor of Arts Degree with a major in Sociology and a minor in Health and Well-Being at UVa. Proctor, who is listed at 6-foot-4, 335-pounds, nurtures NFL dreams. “I can tell you from a parent’s prospective that it was a well thought-out decision, and that his decision to choose OU was very strongly based on the fact that he believed OU was the institution that could offer him the best of the best with respect to elite athletic development and his academic progression towards obtaining his advanced degree,” said Rosalind Proctor. On Jan. 3, Proctor announced his decision to leave Virginia. He visited Texas and Ohio State and had serious interest from Penn State and Florida State. Florida, Missouri and North Carolina State were among the nearly 30 programs that contacted him within two days of his announced decision to change schools. Proctor visited Oklahoma on March 8 and announced March 10 he would be heading to Norman. He will be eligible to play immediately this fall. Proctor was expected to start at left guard last fall for the Cavaliers until injuring a knee during preseason practice, missing the Virginia’s first two games. He slowly returned to action and made significant contributions. He started the final six games,
including the Cavaliers’ dominating 28-0 win over South Carolina in the Belk Bowl. Following a redshirt season in 2015, Proctor played in 32 games and started 12 games for Virginia the past three seasons, eight at left guard and four at right guard. He was expected to play for Virginia in 2019 as a redshirt senior, until breaking his news on Twitter. “I will be transferring from the University of Virginia to continue the specialized advancement of my academic and athletic career goals,” it read. “Always a Wahoo, R.J. Proctor.” He is using the NCAA’s graduate transfer process. To qualify, a player must graduate from a school and enroll in a graduate program not offered by the original destination. The NCAA permits a maximum of four years eligibility over a five-year period. Proctor has one year of eligibility remaining. The clock starts upon matriculation at any college following high school. Oklahoma’s football program claims seven national championships, most recently in 2000, and the last two Heisman Trophy winners in quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray, who led the Sooners to the Orange Bowl in 2018. Some Oklahoma football bloggers project Proctor as a starter, noting he was amongst the most sought-after in the offseason transfer pool. The Sooners must replace four of five starting offensive linemen in 2019.

Yergin tasting Women’s World Cup fever, and pastry shops Former Kettle Run star eating up soccer trip in France
From Emily Yergin’s blog
By Fred Hodge
Special to the Times
Former Kettle Run girls soccer star Emily Yergin was in Reims, France, Tuesday doing what she loves best: being part of a goal-scoring party. A rising senior for Shenandoah University, Yergin and her teammates watched the U.S. women’s soccer team rout Thailand 13-0 in their opening game. The Hornets, who arrived in Europe Saturday, are training in the Val D’Oise area northwest of Paris, and playing three matches against Paris area women’s club teams. They arrived jet lagged, with Yergin filing the first report from Paris, posted on the Shenandoah athletics website: “We went into a couple different shops to scout out the best pastry spots for the week and then grabbed some lunch before heading to training.” Yergin added, “Despite being in one of the most culinary-sophisticated countries in the world, a group of freshmen decided to eat lunch in a Chinese restaurant where they microwave the meals. We won’t name names, but they know who they are.” The team is combining a cultural

Emily Yergin watched the USA destroy Thailand 13-0 in Reims, France Tuesday in the Women’s World Cup. The former Kettle Run star is on a soccer-playing trip to Paris with her Shenandoah University teammates. trip with soccer development, as well as the ultimate dream vacation of seeing Women’s World Cup games. They’ll also see England play Argentina. The Hornets will play June 12 against Creteil, as well as games against Red Star on June 13, and FC Gobelins on June 15. Yergin, a rising senior with one season remaining, already is prominent in the Shenandoah record book. She has tallied 48 goals and 22 assists for 118 total points in 57 career games, placing her third among the
school’s all-time goal scorers. Yergin is third in total points and tied for the second-most career assists. “I am so excited to share this experience with my team,” Yergin said in a school release. “ I think this will be a unique bonding opportunity for us to get better on the pitch and make memories that will last a lifetime. “We are so fortunate to be able to attend two matches in this year’s Women’s World Cup and be able to cheer on Team USA on the biggest stage.”
Greetings from France! We departed Dulles Friday at 7 p.m. and after a long and very interesting plane ride we arrived in Paris at 8 a.m. It was easy to see that some of the team was very experienced flyers and others were not. For some, it was their first flight ever. Fortunately, we were all placed together and we took over the back bottom half of the plane. You might even say we turned it into a party plane and made the long flight fun. There is a six-hour time difference between the states and France, so while our bodies thought it was midnight in Virginia, we were being served breakfast on the plane. The adjustment has been pretty weird to say the least. We went into a couple different shops to scout out the best pastry spots for the week and then grabbed some lunch before heading to training. Despite being in one of the most culinary-sophisticated countries in the world, a group of freshmen decided to eat lunch in a Chinese restaurant where they microwave the meals. We won’t name names, but they know who they are. We were also exposed to French pigeons which could be mistaken for a large squirrels and we also ran into a duck that was clearly well fed with French baguette.

Kettle Run’s 2019 highlights included the Northwestern District title and a 2-0 win over Loudoun County in the region semifinals, which earned them a ticket to states.
Kettle Run baseball squad eliminated in state quarters By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer
Kettle Run’s baseball team saw their late season joy ride end last week with an 11-0 loss to Liberty Christian Academy in the Class 4 quarterfinals in Lynchburg. In its second state appearance in four years, Kettle Run (15-10) fell behind 1-0 in the first inning on June 4. A five-run second inning set the Cougars behind 6-0. Kettle Run starter Joe Vogatsky quieted the LCA attack with scoreless innings in the third and fourth, but the Cougars could never get started offensively. Kettle Run managed five hits over the seven innings, with Caden Decroo hitting a double and Dan Dispanet, Jake Heenan, Michael Aldrich and Jack Riley adding singles. Vogatsky took the loss, striking out four in 4 ⅓ innings.

It was still a banner year for coach Ty Thorpe’s Cougars, who made regionals for the fifth time in six years and eighth time in the program’s 11 years. LCA advanced to play Lafayette in the semifinals Thursday in Salem, with Riverside and Great Bridge meeting in the other semi.
‘Hey, this kid is fast’
From MATTHEWS page 16 “I guess word got around that ‘Hey, this kid is kind of fast,’” Matthews smiled. Coach Scott said the coaching staff was aware of Matthews when he arrived at Fauquier and recalled the newcomer worked his way onto the seasoned post-season squad for cross country. Matthews also became part of very successful indoor and outdoor 3,200 relay teams later that school year. “At that point, he got hungry,” Scott said. “He wanted some of the same glory the seniors were getting. It fueled his fire.” Matthews was the 2018 Northwestern District cross country gold medalist in 15:58.8, winning by more than 17 seconds. He placed seventh in Region C and 17th in the state Class 4 meet. For indoor track, he took eighth in the 1,000 and was part of the gold

McLain Ward, Contagious earn rich jumper classic score By Betsy Burke Parker Special to the Times
New York rider McLain Ward earned his fourth victory in the Upperville Colt and Horse Show jumper classic Sunday, partnering Beechwood Stables’ Contagious to victory in the prestigious event. Rated “four-star” by the international equestrian federation, the classic was worth $208,200 and attracted riders from 10 nations. Thirty-four riders tackled course designer Alan Wade’s challenging first-round track, many of the 17 jumping efforts set at maximum height and width, 5-feet, 3-inches with spreads topping 6 feet. The triple combination at 4A, B and C proved a challenge, especially the tricky max height vertical on the grandstand-side line. Thirteen jumped clear to return for the jumpoff. Experience under pressure proved to be the winning key for Olympic and World Equestrian Games gold medalist Ward, with the veteran putting down an efficient but conservative round. The rider shaved a stride after the turn from the double combination, picking up critical time through the first half of the shortened track, as many of the previous athletes had issues at the double. England’s Amanda Derbyshire came closest, less than half-a-second slower with Roulette BH in 38.06. “[Contagious] is a pretty quick horse,” Ward said. “I gave a little time at the combination because that seemed to be a trouble spot in the jump-off. It was a difficult rollback to the last line, which I thought was a bending eight, and I thought I could cut in on the skinny. Alan narrowed up on the oxer and I thought it was a good opportunity. The horse responded beautifully.” Ward took over the mount on the 10-year-old gelding last summer, and they helped the U.S. team win

U.S. Olympian and World Equestrian Games gold medalist McLain Ward, above, partnered Contagious to win Sunday’s headline jumper classic at the 166th Upperville Colt and Horse Show. the $150,000 Nations Cup in Florida in March. Ward said he’s aimed at the Pan American Games later this year in Lima, Peru. “He’s been knocking on the door for a big win,” Ward said of the chestnut warmblood gelding. “He’s a sensitive horse, afraid of his own shadow, but that’s … what makes him careful. You have to hold his hand from time to time, but he delivers when it counts.” A regular at Upperville, Ward said the nation’s oldest horse show is one of his favorites. “I have very fond memories from Upperville,” he said. “I used to drive down here (from New York) with my father in the old days. I get a bit nostalgic when we get off of the exit in Winchester because that’s where we

June 23 show in Warrenton
The annual Virginia-bred, Virginia-sired and Virginia-certified yearling show is June 23 at the historic Warrenton Horse Show grounds. Prizes worth $22,500 are on the line for colts, fillies and grand champion. Admission is free. The event includes an expert conformation seminar and a “sideline judge” prize for picking the winners.
In Saturday evening’s $25,000 hunter derby, Samantha Schaefer’s top score aboard In The Know won the two-round headliner. Twenty-eight riders showcased their mounts over the Skip Bailey course that included a technical option mid-course that invited riders to select from a bounce, a one-stride or a two-stride as well as four high options to earn extra points. Defending champions Hunt Tosh and Flamingo-K took the early lead with 379 after the handy round. Schaefer was next in the ring with In The Know, both judging panels giving matching scores of 92 with 10 bonus points for a two-round total of 391. “I think people appreciate the complexity of this course,” said show president Barbara Roux. “I think it was interesting and I think the riders chose a variety of options. It made it really fun for the spectators.” In the breeding divisions, Best Young Horse went to 3-year-old non-thoroughbred filly and 2018 national champion Qismet, shown by Emily Anne Belin. Best Young Pony was Barbara Chappell’s Mystical Attire handled by Charlie Brown. Complete results are at horseshowsonline.com.

Products that help you feel like yourself again The Home Care Shop will soon be renamed The Care Boutique By Anita L. Sherman Community Editor
Whether it’s a wig by Rene of Paris or Amore, bras, leisure or activewear, lingerie by Amoena, or bamboo scarves and turbans by Parkhurst, it’s all under one roof at The Home Care Shop, located off the main lobby of Fauquier Hospital near the gift shop. Manager Diane Von Goellner-Suppa chuckles, describing the shop as “the world’s smallest department store.” While garnering a reputation as a place to be fitted for a bra after a mastectomy or to purchase a wig if you’ve lost your hair, the colorful and cozy shop houses much more. Nurses in need of new scrubs or hospital visitors looking for a water bottle or hand lotion can find what they need. “We have women who come in for a wig because it’s convenient if they are going on vacation or a cruise and don’t want to worry about their hair,” said Von Goellner-Suppa, who has two art degrees in addition to two certifications as a certified fit specialist. In an array of colors, the wigs can be fashioned from human hair or synthetics. Von Goellner-Suppa points to several on display. “See, you can see the scalp,” she says, noting that she always has customers “try them on in natural light.” Because of her art background, Von Goellner-Suppa is particularly sensitive to a woman’s coloring. “The wig needs to look good without your wearing make-up,” she noted.

Aqua yoga helps build your muscles while relaxing your mind.
Try aqua yoga for strength, flexibility and calm in your life This summer, do something you may not have done before: yoga in the pool! Of course a lake, ocean or even a hot tub will do to give your body a new perspective on feeling stronger, longer, leaner and more flexible in both body and mind. Plus, you don’t even know you are sweating when doing a class in the water. It’s refreshing and invigorating, while beneficial for the muscles and joints. Don’t like getting in a swimsuit or being in the water? Take a deep breath: You don’t have to swim, per se, just allow the water to work its magic to support your muscles. Also, there are rash guards you can wear or even swim tights to keep you feeling comfortable so you can truly enjoy the flow. All of my classes are done in shallow water and we use the hydrostatic pressure of the water to create support, boost circulation and help with balance. There are dynamic noodles we use that are not the lightweight kind you buy for the kids but instead are more durable and create extra buoyancy and add a bit of resistance for increasing strength. Often, I use them as you would a yoga strap to feel the stretch on a deeper level. Yoga on land is sometimes intimidating and not always welcoming to all populations. Flowing in the water takes the stress off the joints a bit and yet challenges the muscles needed for balance. In a moving body of water, the current is constantly moving and the need to maintain stability increases. Posture improves as we work both with and against the current. Sometimes, we connect to each other to enhance the stretches and help awaken other muscles. My mission is to make it fun while we flow and grow. Over the years, there have been
GROW STRENGTH WITHIN
MONICA FERNANDI several ways to exercise in the water. I’ve been teaching water aerobics for more than 10 years and have added Aqua Zumba, water boot camp and river walking to the list. Standup paddle board yoga (also known as SUP yoga) is one I have not yet added to my classes, but many of my colleagues teach it regularly. We have all grown since the days of Esther Williams and synchronized swimming! Needless to say, the options to strengthen your body, increase your flexibility, and help with core balance while in the water have more than doubled over the last few decades. Why not jump out of your comfort zone a little and come try a class? Your body will be healthier, your mind freer and your summer more relaxing. Whether you join me at the WARF, Salamander Spa & Resort, or in the privacy of your own pool, give yourself the gift of letting go of judgement and let’s float our way to bliss.

What do the Chesapeake Bay and your lawn have in common? PHOTO BY WILL PARSON/COURTESY OF CHESAPEAKE BAY PROGRAM
Estimated water quality in the tidal Chesapeake Bay has reached a near-record high. Wetlands, like those seen here near the mouth of the Elk River, can slow the flow of pollution into rivers and streams. By Sue Bromley
Special to the Fauquier Times
Both the Chesapeake Bay (and other waterways) and your own lawn will thrive with the proper use of fertilizers. Your lawn will be at its best when the turf is strong and properly fed. Strong, healthy turf feels good underfoot and is a pleasant part of outdoor living in the summer. Beautiful lawns that are well managed and not over fertilized are also significant contributors to healthy local rivers, streams and lakes. Moreover, because we are in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, well-managed lawns contribute to the overall health of the Chesapeake Bay – the largest estuary in the United States and the third largest in the world. With some care and guidance, we can avoid adding too many nutrients to waterways, preventing the depletion of oxygen and enabling the water to support fish and aquatic life. One option for affordable lawn care guidance that is environmentally responsible is to invite local experts in to test, measure and review your lawn. The Fauquier County Master Gardeners, the Virginia Cooperative Extension, and the John Marshall Soil and Water Conservation District work together and with Virginia Tech to bring to county residents a service that results in a prescription for your lawn
based on its size, your soil condition, your goals, and the condition of your lawn. A Master Gardener team will visit your home to collect this information and will work with Virginia Tech to develop an easy-to-follow plan specific to your lawn’s needs in a couple of weeks. Once you have your lawn’s prescription, you can invite a lawn service to follow the customized plan or follow it yourself. The plan, accompanied by the use of some best practices will produce results:
• Follow the plan – the fertilizer recommendations for your lawn are based on your soil test results and the square footage of your lawn areas and the type of grass you are growing. Adhere to the plan and your turf will improve and the Chesapeake Bay and local rivers and streams will benefit greatly. • Mow high – lots of grass is cut too short but does best when moved at three inches or more. • Recycle grass clippings and leaves – it is like a little dose of fertilizer for your lawn.
• Water deeply, infrequently, and early in the day (or not all.) To learn more about the “Green Grass” program or to sign up for a visit, go to www.demetersoft.net/ soilsample/register.asp. The program costs $40. Your lawn and the Chesapeake Bay will thank you. Sue Bromley is an Extension Master Gardener volunteer. The Virginia Cooperative Extension office located in Warrenton serves Fauquier and Rappahannock counties. Contact them at 540-341-7950.

A daughter’s first love
Sunday is Father’s Day. In Catholic Europe, fathers had been celebrated since the Middle Ages, albeit in March, coinciding with the feast of St. Joseph. As early as 1908, a young grieving woman, Grace Clayton, in West Virginia wanted to honor her father who had been killed in a tragic mining accident. With 361 men dead, 250 of them were fathers, leaving Grace and countless others fatherless. She lobbied with her local pastor to set aside a day to honor these men. That didn’t happen, but her efforts were repeated by others in various ways and in various towns and states. On a trip to the state of Washington in the early 1900s, President Woodrow Wilson wanted to proclaim it a national holiday, but Congress thought it ill advised, fearing it would be commercialized. It took several decades of lobbying for the celebration of Father’s Day to be officially recognized as a national holiday in the United States by President Richard Nixon in 1972. Mother’s Day had been in full swing – we can thank Anna Jarvis for that. My father passed away more than 20 years ago. I can still recall that day in June when my sister phoned from Oregon to tell me, “Dad has died.” I felt a hard punch to my stomach from across the miles. I lost my breath, told her I’d call her back and
FROM WHERE I SIT ANITA SHERMAN slumped to the floor in tears. We had moved to Virginia years before and, in between visits, my father would regularly phone on Friday evenings or Saturday mornings to find out how things were going, how were his grandchildren, or what was the weather like. I counted on those conversations to keep me connected with this man, far away, but ever close to my heart. A stern disciplinarian, he could cut me to the quick with a look. An engineer, he couldn’t understand or, perhaps never accepted, that math was not my forte. But at the beginning of each school year, he would meticulously cover my books, take me to the store to buy school supplies and he did help me with homework – particularly anything to do with numbers. I am half Filipina (on his side) and half Spanish (on my mother’s). When I was in grade school, around age 7, I knew that I didn’t look like most of the other children. It didn’t bother me, but I was curious, so I
asked my father. “Dad, what am I?” He looked at me and said, “You’re an American, that’s all you need to know.” That was fine with me. My father came to this country from the Philippines in the late 1920s, became an American citizen, graduated with several engineering degrees, married my mother, was a commander in the U.S. Navy, loved to play golf, drive Cadillacs, and, bottom line, spoil me. At times, he would get exasperated with my exuberance or stubbornness or persistence and would blurt out, “What’s the matter with you … are you crazy or something?” Well, I knew I wasn’t crazy, so I had to be the “or something.” I attended a Catholic grade school taught by Holy Child nuns. They could be a harsh lot. One in particular — a tall, thin, willowy apparition — scared me to death. Normally, my father left the school conference meetings to my mother but when I was in the fifth grade, he went with her. I feared the worst. It was my father that came to me later that evening. “Something is wrong with that woman … I think she is a witch … don’t worry about her … you’re fine.” I glowed. Everything was now right with the world. I had my fa-
ther’s unconditional love and support and that was all that mattered. He was my champion. When I headed off to college, I wanted to major in art. He would have none of that, telling me that art was a hobby. Thus, I majored in communications with an emphasis in editorial journalism. My first Christmas home from campus, his gift was an artist’s box filled with paintbrushes, tubes of paint in many colors and linseed oil. My father liked bits of information about history. He loved to tinker and build things. He could sew. He could cook. He was patriotic. He loved this country. He provided well for his family. I believe, that for a daughter, your father is your first love. He gives you his hand, his heart and, when he is gone, no matter your age, for a time, you feel abandoned, lost, an orphan. A few days after my father passed, it was morning and I was about to get up. The window next to my bed was open just a crack. There was no wind outside, but I felt a distinct rush of air hit my face. Was that you Dad, or am I crazy … or something? Sunday is Father’s Day. I miss you. Reach Anita Sherman at asherman@fauquier.com

Annual car show set for Father’s Day Staff Reports The Old Town Warrenton’s Father’s Day Car Show has become a family tradition. Now in its 23rd year, the annual free event draws thousands to see great cars and have an outing with Dad. In addition to rows of shiny vehicles and motorcycles, there is food, music and vendors. Plan to stroll Main Street in Warrenton on Sunday, June 16, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. In 2018, there were 186 cars registered. This year, more than 200 cars, trucks and motorcycles are registered. Registration began in April. While it is possible to register on the day of the event, street capacity may not allow late entrants. The show is sponsored by the American Cancer Society Relay for Life of Fauquier County. As such, registration fees are tax deductible. All proceeds benefit the American Cancer Society. According to organizer Christina Ballard, there are a few new things this year. There will be motorcycle-specific judges, categories and trophies. A silent and Chinese auction begins at 8 a.m. and will close at noon. “There will be really cool auto-related items, including a chance to bid on a ride in the newly restored county sheriff’s vehicle,” said Ballard. Photos with your friends? Added
fun for this year is an old-style photo booth on site. This year, Fast Lane Biker Magazine is hosting a Biker Model search contest and Bike of the Month search contest. A $25 donation will get you photos taken by a professional photographer, including a thumb drive. For the model contest, there is a dress code. Ballard advices that attire is classy, not trashy, so no bathing suits or bra tops. Appropriate family event dress attire includes shorts, jeans, leggings, tees/tanks/ halter tops, gowns and dresses. Volunteers are always needed. If you are interested or need more information about the event, please email Christina.Ballard@outlook. com.

Path To Success Program Opens Doors For More Students By SALLY VOTH Lord Fairfax Community College A new inititaive at LFCC’s Fauquier Campus is helping the most vulnerable succeed. The Path to Success program was launched this academic year to provide extra support to students who are first-generation college students, have income constraints, or need extra developmental support before enrolling in college-level coursework. Although Fauquier and
Students participating in the program will have access to a special study area with computers, a textbook library and hotspots for those who lack reliable internet access.
Rappahannock counties are considered wealthy, there are pockets of poverty within them, Fauquier Campus Dean Caroline Wood notes. Many students at LFCC are eligible for federal Pell grants, and would benefit from more wrap-around services. LFCC Success Coach Julie Fainter says the goal is to remove any barriers to success that may be in students’ paths. Students participating in the program will have access to a special study area with computers, a textbook library and hotspots for those who lack reliable internet access. There are also scholarships and emergency grants that will be available for qualifying students. These can be used for textbooks, and costs related to childcare, transportation and housing, Fainter says. Lord Fairfax established the Path to Success program with funding from the Virginia Foundation for Community College Education’s Rural Virginia Horseshoe Initiative (RVHI) and a matching grant
from the PATH Foundation. Dean Wood says the college has reapplied for funding for the upcoming academic year. The Rural Virginia Horseshoe Initiative refers to the shape that would be formed if a line was drawn from the Eastern Shore west through Southside and then southwest Virginia and then up through the Shenandoah Valley. Within this region, which represents 75 percent of the state’s geography, 500,000 people have less than a high school diploma. Because of this, Virginia is ranked 31st in the nation when it comes to the percentage of residents with at least a high school equivalency credential. The RVHI project’s vision is to transform Virginia’s rural communities through higher education and 21st-century job skills. Some of the new services will start shortly after high school graduation, thanks to a summer bridge program. New graduates who are starting at LFCC in the fall would take student development courses
to help them develop optimum note-taking, test-taking and study skills; learn more about academic planning and resources; and begin the career exploration process. “I started out working with the high schools in the region because I will be working closely with their career coaches,” Fainter says. Additionally, about 70 students from Southeastern Alternative School visited the campus to learn about the different academic and workforce programs available, and participate in some handson sessions. Fainter says she is hopeful the students will be brought back for a second visit to allow them to become more comfortable with the college setting. Undecided seniors from Fauquier County’s three area high schools participated in a similar program, Fainter says. Fainter will also be visiting high schools to talk to rising seniors about career exploration to help clarify their direction upon graduation to make sure they

$4,800 Food Insecurity Grant from the Virginia Foundation for Community College Education to help alleviate issues of hunger among students. “At the Fauquier Campus, we have stations that are stocked with breakfast and lunch foods, as well as some snack items,” LFCC Assistant Director of Financial Aid Kaitlyn Lambert says. “We have hygiene stations in several of the bathrooms that contain feminine hygiene products, toothpaste, deodorant, soap and other items.” LFCC began providing the stations to students in March. At the same time, the college began accepting applications from students with greater need, and the campus’s Feeding Success Team collects the items they need. “We have had two students already apply since we started accepting
“We have a great deal of students who either cannot get off campus to access food, or they don’t have funding to buy it.” applications in March,” Lambert says. Fauquier Campus faculty and staff also donated to the food and hygiene stations. Items available for students to take for a meal or snack include oatmeal, popcorn, breakfast bars, granola, crackers, soup and tuna fish. “We have a great deal of
students who either cannot get off campus to access food, or they don’t have funding to buy it,” Lambert says. “We wanted to be able to provide them with nutritional items so they can stay focused on learning. “The stations have had a big impact on several students. I know one student who is dropped off in the morning and stays on campus all day long.” That student had been eating expired food from a community refrigerator and items from fellow students’ lunches, Lambert says. Now, she is getting the nourishment she needs. The majority of the 23 colleges that make up the Virginia Community College System offer food pantries on campus or deliver groceries to students. The Wisconsin HOPE Lab found that 42 percent of community college students experienced food insecurity.
Food and hygiene donations can be dropped off at the financial aid office on campus. For more information, email Lambert at klambert@lfcc.edu.

‘Valley Mill,’ circa 1798 A relaxed lifestyle in Virginia’s Wine Country Steeped in history and recognized for its open spaces, scenic beauty and environmental resources, a significant portion of northern Fauquier County has been protected for future generations through conservation easements and state and national parks. A true Virginia treasure, the Crooked Run Valley Rural Historic District is listed on the Virginia Landmarks Register and still reflects the lives of the European settlers who began to establish homesteads there between 1730 and 1750. Valley Mill has its own unique story. The second known mill to be built on Crooked Run, it was known as “Lemerts Mill.” The land once belonged to Lewis Lemert, the son of George Washington’s rent collector, and included a distillery and tavern (which were located on the opposite side of the road). It is believed that Valley Mill remained in the family until the current owner purchased the property in 1999. Unfortunately, it had fallen into disrepair. While retaining the historic integrity of the house, it was completely gutted and modernized. Soon after, the carriage house and apartment were added to accommodate aging parents. Driven by a will to preserve the rural and historic nature of this very
special property, it was placed in open space easement in 2014. Now, with two beautiful dwellings on more than 24 acres, it is a unique prospect for a country home or weekend retreat. The floor plan in the cottage is relaxed and intimate, with a sunny interior that feels spacious and brings in plenty of natural sunlight. Lots of windows allow for lovely views, and a constant connection with the surrounding nature. With ancient stone walls and exposed chestnut beams, the lower level offers the intriguing possibility for a cozy wine cellar and tasting room. In the apartment, terrific open spaces and soaring ceilings create a general sense of easiness. Both dwellings provide an abundance of porches to invite in country breezes and enjoy the peaceful sounds of Crooked Run, an ever-present source of serenity. With eight garage spaces, a charming antique barn, 2,870-plus square feet of living space, five bedrooms, five full baths, and 24-plus acres, this property offers plenty of options for friends and family to stay and enjoy the incredible setting. There is also an antique barn. It’s not only charming, it makes for excellent storage, and has great potential for a wide variety of uses.
Robin Garbe Long & Foster Realtors 703-307-5092 www.RobinGarbe.LNF.com Folks come to Fauquier to experience the spectacular countryside and to live outdoors. Valley Mill offers a wide variety of ways to soak in the gorgeous scenery: porches, sundecks and patios, plenty of lawn, meadow, forest and gardens. Mature trees attract a variety of birds, and wildlife is abundant. Near the quaint villages of Marshall, Upperville, Middleburg and The Plains … with dozens of vineyards, and thousands of acres of parkland within easy reach, there is an endless array of options for recreation, dining, shopping, local events and festivals. This is Delaplane, host to the annual Strawberry Festival and in the heart of Virginia’s horse and wine country! This home at 1847 Leeds Manor Road, Delaplane, is on the market for $925,000.

Shirley Ann (Rayne) Essex It is with profound sadness we announce the death of Shirley Ann (Rayne) Essex at the age of 86 on Thursday, June 6, 2019. Shirley was born at home in New Castle, DE to William and Gladys Rayne on May 17, 1933. She lived most of her younger years with her two sisters, Nancy (Rayne) Zimmermann (deceased) and Barbara (Rayne) Hartnett in Historic New Castle, DE surrounded by their numerous uncles, aunts and cousins. After graduating from William Penn High School in 1950 she was employed by Bell Telephone and then Brosius Elliason Lumber Company. Shirley married and embraced the life of a military wife – packing and unpacking from moves to over six different air bases from Florida, Hawaii, California, Illinois and Massachusetts with six children – William Essex (deceased); Jeffrey and Nancy (Brackett) Essex of DE; David Essex of NC; Debra (Essex) and Dwayne Blackburn of VA; Susan (Essex) and J. David Jaycox of DE, and Kathryn (Essex) Cameron of PA. Prior to moving to Warrenton, VA to live with her daughter and son in law, Shirley was employed by Farmers Bank, America Spirit Federal Credit Union, and retired from Delaware Park. Shirley will always be remembered for her hospitality, generous heart, graciousness, and a smile that would light up any room. Her sister, five surviving children, 15 grandchildren and 25 great grandchildren will always remember the feel of her hugs--they went to the deepest part of your soul. She was always so full of love, and she was willing to share that love with everyone. Every morning she would wake up and say, “Thank you God for another day on your beautiful planet Earth!” A celebration of her life will be at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to your favorite charity in her memory. An online guestbook and tribute wall are available at moserfuneralhome.com

SURVIVAL TACTIC Numerous studies show that spousal bereavement is often a major source of life change that leaves surviving spouses vulnerable to later health problems. Even those who go through the grieving process in a matter of weeks or months must face the immediate reality of vastly changed circumstances. One of the best ways to ensure the health and well-being of a spouse is to remove the responsibility of having to plan the funeral and burial. Coping with the loss of a spouse of many years is difficult enough, and the responsibility of funeral planning is an unnecessary burden that can be lifted with a little forethought. Preplanning your funeral is an act of love. Funeral pre-planning is about so much more than simply recording your end-oflife wishes. It ensures your loved ones know how you want to be honored and cared for. Rather than stressing over the arrangement process, your family members can focus their energy on comforting one another and preparing to say goodbye. To learn more about our funeral services, please call MOSER FUNERAL HOME at (540) 347-3431. Please stop by our tastefully appointed facility at 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton, and be sure to ask about our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY, located just outside of Warrenton. “The sum which two married people owe to one another defies calculation. It is an infinite debt, which can only be discharged through eternity.” ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Edwin Tomlinson Headly Edwin Tomlinson Headly, 88, of Warrenton passed away on June 2, 2019, with his family by his side. Ed was born August 2, 1930 to George Wood and Margaret Miles Headly. He grew up in the Philadelphia area and graduated from Roxborough High School. He was an alumnus of Temple University where he majored in Business and was captain of the baseball team. Ed served in the Army and spent most of his tenure at Fort Dix, New Jersey. He met fellow Roxborough alum Ellen Price on a blind date, and the rest as they say, was history. Married on June 21, 1952, Ellen preceded him in death in January of 2009. Ed is survived by two sons, Mark and wife Christine of Warrenton, and David and partner Nicole Libby of Richmond; two granddaughters, Susanna of Delaplane, and Maggie Schubert and husband Scott of Richmond; and a great-grandson, William Schubert. Ed was involved with the housing industry most of his life, including as a homebuilder and property manager in the Philadelphia area, and after retiring to Warrenton in 1994 as a volunteer with Fauquier Habitat for Humanity, an organization which he deeply loved. He was a member of Warrenton United Methodist Church, and volunteered at Fauquier Hospital for many years. A memorial service will be held in his honor at Warrenton United Methodist Church at 2PM on Thursday, June 13th, 2019. Memorial contributions may be made to Fauquier Habitat for Humanity. Online condolences may be made at www.moserfuneralhome.com.
