Man convicted of murdering Buddhist monk 13 years ago By Coy Ferrell

Times Staff Writer

More than 13 years after a Zen Buddhist monk was found stabbed to death in his home near Marshall, a man has been convicted of the murder. After a three-day trial, a 12-member jury deliberated for three hours Sept. 30 before handing down the verdict. Du Chil Park, born in Korea and better known as Mogu, his ordained name, was killed June 24, 2008, in his secluded Free State residence that also served as a Buddhist temple. His body was found five days later by a neighbor whom Park had asked to water his plants. Investigators never had a formal suspect in the case until the arrest of Won Yung Jung, 65, in December 2020, though Jung had been a “person of interest” since the early stages of the investigation. Jung, now convicted of second-degree murder, will be sentenced by a judge in January. He has been in custody since his arrest almost a year ago. See JUNG, page 13

Piedmont Urgent Care to build new facility next to Warrenton Professional Center By Robin Earl

Times Staff Writer

In the past four months: • The Fauquier County Planning Commission has rejected two proposals to build utility solar fields on farmland in the county. • The Culpeper County Board of Supervisors voted down a plan to construct a solar field covering 1,700 acres. • The Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors rushed to pass an ordinance that restricts utility solar projects to parcels of a minimum of 500 acres with panels covering only 100 contiguous acres. • The Page County Board of Supervisors voted to hold off on supporting large-scale solar developments for now. • The Orange County Board of Supervisors approved a solar farm on just under 100 acres of agriculturally zoned land.

Dr. Steven von Elten of Piedmont Family Practice spoke before the Warrenton Planning Commission Sept. 28 about his plan to build a new 7,540-squarefoot, one-story building to house his practice’s urgent care center and a pharmacy. Remington Drug Co., a 100-year-old independent pharmacy located on Main Street in Remington, would be a partner in the venture. Piedmont Urgent Care is currently located on the lower floor of the Warrenton Professional Building, next door to the proposed new building. Since it would be in a commercially zoned area of town, the new building is allowed by-right on the site. The drive-thru for the pharmacy, however, requires a special permit, so planning commissioners had some questions about the drive-through configuration. The new building would be adjacent to the Warrenton Professional Center, on the corner of Blackwell Road and Walker Drive. A 31-space parking lot would lead to the drive-thru lane, which would

Fauquier a prime target for solar projects By Peter Cary

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

Despite two recent rejections of solar farms by the Fauquier County Planning Commission, applications for such projects continue to roll in. Indeed, zoning administrator Amy Rogers said recently that she has received “dozens” of inquiries from solar development companies about the county’s regulations and the possibility of locating in Fauquier. The two latest proposals to emerge are for a small 33-acre project near Remington and a much larger 480-acre site at Catlett. Sponsors of both engaged in pre-application meetings with zoning officials but neither has submitted more information, Rogers said. The Remington project, known as Remington Solar Array, would be a 9.0 mW AC solar farm at 12149 Grassdale Road, southeast of the town. It would take up 33 acres of a 70.5-acre parcel, and would be owned and operated by Infiniti Energy, LLC of Hopewell, New Jersey. The Catlett solar project, known as Sowego Energy Facility and submitted by Torch Clean Energy of Charlottesville, would be an 80 mW project located on 480 acres at the junction of Bristerburg and Cromwell roads, about six miles south of the Catlett Service District. Torch says it would create 150 temporary construction jobs and would produce enough electricity to power 15,000 homes. A third and larger project is looming. AES Clean Energy of Arlington, announced plans to build a 100 mW solar array on 1,000 acres near Morrisville at a Rotary Club meeting in Warrenton in June. The project will be known as Fitch Solar; it was originally proposed by sPower which was acquired by AES in late 2020. Company officials have said they intend to file an application by the end of this year, but they have yet to do so. Under a new state law, utility-level solar applicants must request a so-called siting meeting with county officials at which they may negotiate contributions the solar company will make to county public works projects or local organizations. Still, so far solar projects have not fared well in Fauquier’s approval process. A 40-acre site near Bealeton known as Bealeton Marsh Solar was determined by the planning commission in June to not be in accord with the county’s comprehensive plan, and the board of supervisors did not consider overturning the decision. A second project, proposed for 19.5 acres on a 48-acre farm on Meetze Road was rejected by the planning commission on Aug. 19 after it heard objections from neighbors. Thus, the only solar farm to be built in the county was launched in 2017 by Dominion Energy on 125 acres of its own land near Remington. Supervisor Chris Butler, whose Lee District is targeted by many of the solar applicants, has said he does not want to see solar farms “eat up a lot of agricultural land.” But he also noted that the projects have to be located close to power transmission lines and substations, a limiting factor that should prevent them from overrunning the county.

Rural counties wrestle with solar power demands from Northern Virginia SOLAR, from page 1 So goes the land use quandary stewing in rural counties around Virginia, the result of a building friction between the state’s ambitious renewable energy goals and the desire of communities to preserve productive farmland and with it, their agricultural identities. Unlike a homeowner installing rooftop panels to offset electric costs, so-called “solar fields” or “utility-scale” solar projects can require many acres. They generate energy directly into the electric grid, not for end-use customers. On a deeper level, as electric vehicles and huge data centers boost the state’s power needs, there’s a wariness that rural communities will one day be expected to provide the solar energy to meet the demand. “We want to do our share, but not more than our share,” said Sam McLearen, Culpeper County’s planning director. “We’re open to this kind of energy, but we want to keep it within the bounds of Culpeper. We don’t want to be providing energy for the data centers in Northern Virginia.”

The right balance

For Julie Bolthouse, the prospect of solar panels lining open fields is a knotty matter. As deputy director of land use for the Piedmont Environmental Council focusing primarily on Fauquier County, she’s all in on the shift to renewable energy. But, she said, it comes down to navigating the right balance. “There’s a deep need to address climate change,” Bolthouse said. “That being said, though, we shouldn’t clear-cut our forests or potentially risk our food security by eliminating farms. There’s also the recreational value of the land, particularly for a place like Rappahannock, which is at the gateway to the national park. There are a lot of factors that need to be considered.” Bolthouse cited the case of the massive utility solar project that will eventually comprise as many as 1.8 million panels spread over 3,500 acres in western Spotsylvania County. The first phase went into operation this summer, and ultimately is expected to produce 484 megawatts of power for the electrical grid. For comparison, using a 100-watt light bulb as a yardstick, a single megawatt equals a million watts. Apple, Micro-

soft and the University of Richmond have already contracted to receive renewable energy credits from the facility. It’s the first example in the eastern United States of the huge solar “farms” that already cover great expanses of land in California and other western states. But those developments have been built on mostly arid soil. The Spotsylvania Solar Center covers what were once forests and fields. “They cleared that entire area all at once so there’s a lot of sediment in storm water ponds around it,” Bolthouse said. “Neighbors were concerned because the streams were running brown.” Instead, she believes utility solar projects in Virginia should be developed in relatively small chunks, maybe 50 acres at a time, so that the land can be seeded and stabilized in phases. That said, she prefers smaller-scale projects that could have much less impact on the region’s natural resources. “You might have a 25-acre site, and it doesn’t have prime agricultural soil; it’s not in an historic area; it doesn’t impact the viewshed. It might make sense to use that land for solar.”

Utility solar explosion

Only five years ago, no utility-scale solar facilities were operating in Virginia. Since then, the business has exploded. Last year, in fact, more than 1.4 gigawatts of solar were installed in the state, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association. That’s fourth in the country, behind only California, Texas and Florida. Virginia also ranks fourth in projected growth over the next five years. A gigawatt is equal to one billion watts. See SOLAR, page 5

Rural counties wrestle with solar power demands from Northern Virginia SOLAR, from page 4 Any doubt about the state’s longterm commitment to renewable energy faded when Gov. Ralph Northam signed the Virginia Clean Economy Act in April 2020. Not only does it require Dominion Energy and Appalachian Power to be carbon-free by 2045 and 2050 respectively, but it also specifies that having a target of 16.7 gigawatts of solar power produced in Virginia would be in the “public interest.” But even with those aggressive goals, the final decisions on whether utility solar projects are approved and where they’re located remains at the local level. So, the state legislature also passed laws to sweeten the potential financial benefits for counties. One allows municipalities to replace their machinery and tools tax with a “revenue-share” arrangement that would pay a county up to $1,400 per megawatt for a project. That would tend to make large-scale solar facilities more appealing, at least fiscally. Another new law enables county officials to negotiate what are known as “siting agreements” through which a solar developer would be asked to help cover a municipality’s planned capital expenses, such as for road repairs or broadband upgrades. The laws add another level of scrutiny to an issue that’s already challenging local officials trying to figure out how much utility solar makes sense in their communities. “You have some folks who don’t want to see these anywhere,” said McLearen, the Culpeper planner.

Sam McLearen is Culpeper County’s planning director. “You have some folks who feel the county could do well with one or two big projects. And you have some who think the projects should be smaller so we can hide them the best we can. So, you’re trying to serve different ideas about this.”

Fishing for prospects

There’s also the matter of aging landowners looking to find another source of revenue by leasing or selling property to solar companies, and developers haven’t been shy about fishing for prospects. “You have landowners who don’t want to farm any more who are highly incentivized by the big dollars developers are offering for their land,” said Susan Ralston, founder

of Culpeper-based Citizens for Responsible Solar. “I get it. But in Culpeper, we do not want the historical or agricultural heritage of the land destroyed. “People should have the right to do what they want with their land … until you impact somebody else,” she added. “That’s why proper zoning is so important. Let’s properly site these projects where they’re not objectionable to the community and adjacent landowners.” Ralston admits she knew little about utility solar until March 2019, a few months after Cricket Solar submitted an application to build a facility on 1,600 acres near her 30-acre horse farm in Culpeper. It would have contained more than 380,000 solar panels and generated about 80 megawatts of solar energy. That August, Cricket withdrew its application, but Ralston sees the solar land rush only accelerating. “Developers are trying to get a foothold in rural counties,” she said. “They know agricultural land is inexpensive. They have a lot more money, and a lot more experts and attorneys. All we can do is arm our citizens and local officials with information.”

Meeting a growing demand

Susan Ralston is the founder of Culpeper-based Citizens for Responsible Solar. She is standing with a historical map of nearby civil war battle sites and two maps showing the proposed industrial solar farm on agricultural land, just south of Culpeper.

However, it’s not simply a case of solar developers indiscriminately shopping for property. In fact, most of the land in the Piedmont region isn’t suitable for utility solar. That could be because it’s in a flood plain or near wetlands, or not close enough to a high-capacity electricity transmission line or power substation, or that it slopes too much. In fact, according to a 2018 analysis by the Rappahannock-Rapidan Regional Commission, only about 6% of the area within Fauquier, Rappahannock, Culpeper, Orange and Madison counties was found to be appropriate for solar development. The study also excludes “prime agricultural lands.” Orange County has the highest percentage of suitable land — about 13% — while Fauquier and Culpeper

both total around 6%, the researchers concluded. Rappahannock and Madison fall at the low end of the scale, with 1.9% and 1.7% respectively of land suitable for utility solar. Still, as the cost of developing solar projects continues to fall while the demand for renewable energy climbs, the pressure on local officials will intensify. How do they accommodate utility-scale solar while staying true to their comprehensive plans? Jonah Fogel is the program director for the Environmental Resilience Institute at the University of Virginia; he works with local governments and the state on energy planning and policies. He said, “Solar is the latest emerging land use for which we need to have a public dialogue. As we build out the energy future for the country and decarbonize the economy, there are going to be tradeoffs.” He anticipates that demand for solar could far exceed the target of 16.7 gigawatts called for in the Virginia Clean Economy Act, pointing out that data centers are now big drivers of the clean energy economy. “For us to have Netflix and all these other services in our homes, we’re going to have to energize a system that doesn’t rely on high-intensity carbon sources,” Fogel said. “But we’ve got to remember that this didn’t come from nowhere. We have an energy demand we’re going to have to meet, and these are the technologies that get us there.” And that, he said, is making rural boards of supervisors and planning commissions start to wrestle with a vexing set of questions. What role, if any, should their communities play in supporting the shift to renewable energy? To what degree? And, how do they weigh the potential financial benefits versus what could be lost? “Not everywhere is good for solar, and that’s the starting point,” said Fogel. “They need to look at what lands are likely to be developed, and what they can do in those areas to be supportive of that land use, but restrictive in a way that’s responsible for the goals of the community. Through that process, they can say this is a land use that can occur here, and we know how to do it in a responsible way. “The last thing I’d want to see is for municipalities to say ‘no’ to solar because they just don’t want to deal with it.” Randy Rieland is a freelance writer who writes for the Foothill Forum, a non-profit agency providing support for local news.

Funding for stormwater projects eases pain of ‘unfunded mandate’ By Peter Cary

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

Officials in Fauquier County and the Town of Warrenton have complained that state-imposed requirements that they clean up their stormwater runoff is an unfunded mandate that forced them to build costly projects without state or federal assistance. Not exactly. For nearly two decades, both Virginia and the federal government have made millions of dollars available to help pay for these programs. While it takes some work to get it, numerous localities have found it’s worth the effort.

Funding for stormwater projects eases pain of ‘unfunded mandate’ STORMWATER, from page 7 Historically, SLAF has paid 50% of a project’s costs, though a law passed this year allows for a bigger contribution for localities in financial stress. Still, grant winners need to find the rest of the funding. Some pay for it from their own general fund or from money raised through utility fees. Some, like Kilmarnock, turn to other grant funders to make up some or all of the rest. Others turn to the Virginia Clean Water Revolving Loan Fund. The City of Waynesboro, roughly double the size and population of Warrenton, was able to fully fund its first major stormwater retention and filtering project with its $850,000 SLAF grant and an $850,000 loan from the revolving loan fund. Since its inception in 1987, the fund has made 500 loans totaling more than $4 billion. Most of those loans have gone to wastewater treatment plants, but the money is available for stormwater projects too. The DEQ’s Crocker, who once oversaw stormwater projects in Waynesboro, said the city created a stormwater utility, a dedicated and self-supporting department for stormwater management. One benefit from a utility, Crocker said, is low interest rates – 1.5% or less

from the federally subsidized fund; the loans run 20 years. ”So, it’s kind of a no-brainer to go the revolving loan fund route, I wish more people would take it up,” he said. A third source of money for stormwater projects are National Fish and Wildlife Fund grants, which may run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. For instance, the Rappahannock-Rapidan Regional Commission last year obtained a NFWF grant of $301,000 for Warrenton, Fauquier County and other environmental organizations for a package of projects that included $103,388 for the Fauquier High School wetland, $48,989 for a swale near the town dog park, and $64,610 for the Garrett Street pond. With the SLAF grant of $65,000 and the money from NFWF, Warrenton will be able to pay most, if not all, of the cost of the Garrett Street pond project. The Chesapeake Bay Trust is another source of funding, though most of its money goes to projects in Maryland and D.C. That said, it does award grants to Virginia projects, such as $30,000 for wetlands design at Fauquier High School that the county received in 2020. Individual grants in Virginia have reached $100,000. One other potential source of

funding -- and a huge one – may also be tapped in the near future. Both the county and the town received funds through the American Rescue Plan Act. Fauquier County just received $13.8 million, and Warrenton got $10.4 million. Julie Bolthouse, the Piedmont Environmental Council’s land use field representative for Fauquier County, said the ARPA funds could be used

to pay for the portion of stormwater projects not funded by grants. “It clearly says this in the ARPA funds legislation, which includes water quality protection measures, so you can use them on [pollution reduction projects] and things like that,” she said. “This is basically an amazing pot of money that everybody’s gotten, and everybody’s trying to figure out what to do with it,” she said.

Funding available for stormwater projects Stormwater Local Assistance Fund (SLAF)

Has granted $185 million for pollution-reduction projects since 2014. Typically grants 50% of project cost if locality can fund the rest. Places high value on cost-effectiveness. Biggest grant so far: $2.55 million.

Virginia Clean Water Revolving Loan Fund (VCWRLF)

Has lent more than $4 billion since inception in 1987. Most applicants are for wastewater treatment projects, but stormwater projects qualify. Interest rates can be 1.5% or lower; loans can run 20,25, or 30 years.

National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF)

Created by Congress in 1984,

multi-project grants of $300,000 are not unusual. Projects need to be part of a bigger effort to reduce pollution and must show matching effort, either in-kind or monetary.

Chesapeake Bay Trust (CBT)

Awarded $11.1 million in grants in 2020. Has given up to $100,000 to projects in Virginia, though most grants go to proposals in Maryland.

American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA)

The law funneled $325 billion to state and local governments for public assistance and investment. Fauquier County received $13.8 million and Warrenton $10.4 million. Advocates say the money can be used for clean water infrastructure projects.

Become the ‘real man’ of Fauquier County Aimée O’Grady

Special to the Fauquier Times

When Carmen Rivera approached Fauquier Commissioner of the Revenue Eric Maybach to become a Real Men Wear Pink Fauquier ambassador, he didn’t have to think too long before committing. “I have a mother, five sisters, a wife and three daughters. Raising funds and awareness for breast cancer was definitely something I could support, he said.” That was one year ago, when the community was only six months into the pandemic. “Things were definitely different last year. People weren’t out as much as they as are now and I wanted to have some fun with my fundraising,” he said. The American Cancer Society, the organization that runs Real Men Wear Pink countrywide, asks participants to set a goal of $2,500. Maybach said, “I took a family photo and posted it to social media about what I was doing and that was the start.” He said, “I made a pledge to dye my hair pink if I hit my goal.” Maybach made an appointment with Jenna Cooper at Wonderfully Made Salon in Remington 10 days later. “I couldn’t believe I hit my goal that quickly. I needed to up the ante and pledged to keep my hair pink for one extra week for every $1,000 beyond my goal.” But Maybach’s wife Melea intervened; she suggested changing the $1,000 to $500. The rose-hued commissioner of revenue raised nearly $5,500 and kept his hair pink until February. This year, he’s upping the ante again. “I want to see if I can keep my hair pink until Easter,” he challenged. Carmen Rivera applauds Maybach’s efforts

and cheerfulness surrounding a topic that is close to many people. “Our State Farm Insurance agency has supported the Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society, which is why I was contacted to spearhead Real Men Wear Pink.” Her role is to recruit gentlemen to fundraise during the month of October. “It’s a light-hearted competition for a heavy issue,” said Rivera. The event raised $28,000 in 2020. Funds raised throughout the month are put toward programs and services for every woman or man who is diagnosed with the illness. The American Cancer Society states on its website that female breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide in 2020. Despite this, the death rate has dropped by 41% -- as a result of earlier detection through increased awareness and mammography screening. Gentlemen who live or work in Fauquier are welcome to join Real Men Wear Pink. Women are also invited to nominate men. Maybach said, “Campaigning [for the position of commissioner of the revenue] reinforced what I love about our community, the support and commitment that people have for one another. I see my role as commissioner as being accessible to everyone with questions and concerns. Becoming an ambassador for Real Men Wear Pink was an easy extension of my role as an elected official to raise money for a worthy cause.” The person who raises the most money for 2021 will be named the Real Man of Fauquier. There is also an award for “most spirited.” For information about the event, visit www. facebook.com/RMWPFauquier. Ambassadors are welcome to join even after Oct. 1.

The proposal states that the urgent care would be open seven days a week, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., but von Elten said Sept. 30 that the practice will adjust to what the community needs. von Elten estimated that there would be five employees on site at a time.

Patients coming from the Warrenton Professional Center would find it convenient to get a prescription from a doctor and have it filled immediately by walking a short distance to the pharmacy, von Elten said. And of course, urgent care patients would be able to pick up prescriptions without leaving the building. The outside of the building would be brick to match the Warrenton Professional Center.

the practice. Piedmont Family Practice employs eight physicians, but von Elten said, “I’m the old guy. When I started practicing, some of these guys were in high school. I’ve been around for a while, so I get to take on these projects.” In addition to being a partner in the medical practice, von Elten is a part-owner of the four-story professional center. During the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, Piedmont Urgent Care was one of the few places where residents could secure COVID-19 testing. Test kits were scarce, and people came from Northern Virginia and points west of Warrenton to get a test. The parking lot was often crowded until the early evening hours, as nurses hurried in and out of the building, administering tests to people in their vehicles. von Elten said that the new building will not be able to accommodate such a scenario, but he expressed hope that in the two years required to build the new urgent care, the pandemic would run its course. A public hearing will be held at the planning commission’s Oct. 19 meeting, at 7 p.m. in Warrenton’s Town Hall.

“Community is going to enjoy this facility”

In an interview Thursday, von Elten was enthusiastic about the project, which he’s been working on for a couple of years. “I’m excited. I can’t wait.” The new building will allow Piedmont Urgent Care to expand from three exam rooms to nine and to add X-ray facilities. The waiting area will be more comfortable, with brighter lighting. Piedmont Family Practice has a “moderately complex lab” in its current

The lab will be expanded when it relocates into the new building. von Elten said that he is looking forward to the collaboration with Remington Drug. “As an independent pharmacy, they can make decisions on what is best for the patient, not what’s best for a corporation. Big pharmacies are based on volume; small, independent pharmacies are based on customer service. “Like us, as an independent business, they work for their patients.” He described how the urgent care space will “flow invitingly into the pharmacy space.” He said he believes there will be opportunities for urgent care staff to collaborate with pharmacists. He offered the example of a patient with multiple medications, “The pharmacist will be able to look at the whole picture, checking for drug interactions and other potential issues.” With luck, said von Elten, the new building will be ready to welcome patients in the first half of 2023. “I’m looking forward to that. The community is really going to enjoy this facility.”

Fauquier historic sites receive state recognition By Liam Bowman

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

The Virginia Department of Historic Resources announced last month that St. James Baptist Church in Bealeton and Vint Hill Farms Station in New Baltimore have been added to the Virginia Landmarks Register. Vint Hill Farms Station -- a former U.S. Army intelligence station-- and St. James Baptist Church and cemetery -- an historic African American church -- received the designation Sept. 23, bringing the county’s number of registered sites to 73. The Virginia Landmarks Register acts as the commonwealth’s official list of important historic sites. A spot on the list requires the completion of an extensive nomination application, after which the department assesses the site’s historic, architectural and cultural significance. These sites “allow people to understand the history of their environment and bring a sense of pride for many local people,” said Randy Jones, a Department of Historic Resources spokesperson. “It’s not easy to get on the register; it’s quite an honor.” When sites are accepted onto the Virginia Landmarks Register, they also automatically get nominated for the National Register of Historic Places, run by the National Parks Service.

Founded by formerly enslaved people in 1866, St. James Baptist Church is the oldest African American congregation in Fauquier County. The current church building dates back to 1922. Vint Hill Farm Station was established by the U.S. Army in 1942 to function as an intelligence and monitoring station. During the second world war, soldiers stationed at Vint Hill worked to intercept and decode German and Japanese radio messages. Perhaps the station’s most notable wartime interception, according to the property’s nomination documents, was a transmission from the Japanese ambassador in Berlin to his superior in Tokyo on Nov. 10, 1943.

Built in 1860 as a private residence, the mansion that now houses the Inn at Vint Hill was renovated and expanded several times before the area was taken over by the U.S. military during World War II. The building served as Vint Hill Farms Station’s officers’ club and quarters until 1992. A Vint Hill-based soldier was able to decipher the message, revealing details about German defenses and troop positions along the European coast, which aided in planning the D-Day invasion at Normandy. The station remained in use throughout the Cold War, although much of that activity is still classified. Closed in 1997 and sold to the county, a special zoning district was created to spur industrial and commercial growth on the former Army post. With a special rezoning provision approved last year, the site’s former barracks are set to be renovated as apartment blocks, the only residential development on the former post.

The historic features of the barracks will be preserved in the final design. For Kevin Ramundo, president of Citizens for Fauquier County, Vint Hill’s “historic landmark” designation is the culmination of a lengthy preservation effort by the nonprofit. “As an organization that first started bringing awareness to the base’s historical importance in 2013, Citizens for Fauquier County is delighted with the latest recognition that solidifies Vint Hill’s importance,” said Ramundo. “It will add to its appeal as a tourist destination and could encourage other worthwhile development there.” See HISTORIC SITES, page 12

St. James Baptist Church, meanwhile, can trace its history back to the early days of Reconstruction. Founded in 1866 by a group of formerly enslaved people from a nearby plantation, the church was the first independent African American congregation in Fauquier County, according to its nomination documents. The Rev. Leland Warring, a former slave who had escaped to Alexandria during the Civil War, was appointed as the church’s first minister. “Before the Civil War, all Black churches had to be affiliated with a white church,” said Jones. During Reconstruction, however, there was a movement of newly freed African American communities breaking away to form their own congregations. “[St. James] represents that important trend in Fauquier County,” Jones added. Initially an open-air congregation under the name Foxville Baptist Church, the name was changed to St. James after the first church building was constructed in the late 1800s. A

replacement building was constructed in 1907 but burned down around 1914. The current white stucco building dates to 1922. The church’s 1.22-acre cemetery contains roughly 180 graves dating back as far as 1901. Still an active church, St. James “continues to be an integral gathering place, safe haven and essential component to … the African American community in the Bealeton/Foxville area,” according to nomination documents. Besides bringing attention and prestige to a historic site, acceptance to the landmarks register makes the property eligible for a historic rehabilitation tax credit. According to Jones, the credit can be applied to expenses related to restoration projects that fit with state guidelines. It’s an acknowledgement by the government that restoring and preserving these historic buildings often requires a lot of specialized work and upkeep, said Jones, which can be costly.

Man convicted of murdering LOOKING OUT FOR Buddhist monk 13 years ago

WORKING PEOPLE

JUNG, from page 1 While the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office has remained the lead investigative agency since the homicide, local detectives were assisted significantly by agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, called on specially to interview Korean-speaking sources. Park was 56 years old when he was killed. He had been a political prisoner in South Korea in the 1970s before becoming ordained as a monk and moving to the United States, where he practiced traditional acupressure. He first established himself in Northern Virginia in 1998 before moving his religious ministry to Fauquier County in 2004. Jung never admitted to killing Park, according to testimony during the trial. But when federal agents interviewed him in a Las Vegas jail cell in 2010 — he was being held there on an unrelated domestic assault charge — Jung initially told the agents that he didn’t know Park at all, the agents testified during the trial. Eventually, he told the agents that he had spent the night in Park’s residence the night that Park died, waking up the next morning to find the monk’s bloody body. Jung went to Park’s residence on June 23,2008, he told the agents, according to their testimony. Jung asked the monk for money to pay off a gambling debt, but Park said he didn’t have any money to give him. Instead, Park allegedly agreed to accompany Jung to Georgia, where Jung planned to ask family members for money to pay off the debt. Having a monk with him would give him credibility with his family, one of the agents testified. The two men drank heavily on June 23. 2008; Jung allegedly told the agents that his nickname is “Coma” because he blacks out often when he gets drunk. Jung told them he slept on the couch that night while Park slept in the bedroom; he found Park’s body there in the morning. The agents asked Jung if he killed Park and Jung said repeatedly that he couldn’t remember, according to the agents’ testimony. “He stated that he’s the only person that could have killed Mogu, but he can’t remember doing it,” one of the agents told the court. Jung wasn’t charged after that interview, however, and no arrests were made in the case until Fauquier detectives obtained a warrant for Jung’s arrest last year. By then, he had lived in an Atlanta suburb for years. “This case needed to be heard. Mr. Mogu — he deserved to have a chance for justice, which is why we brought it forward when we did,” said Commonwealth Attorney Scott Hook, who has been the county’s top prosecutor since 2019. Hook especially praised Chief Deputy Commonwealth’s Attorney

We all know it hasn’t always been easy for the working person in Virginia. In fact, before Democrats won leadership of the General Assembly, Virginia was ranked as the least worker friendly state in the nation. But Democratic leadership has brought change and now we are ranked as the 23rd most worker friendly state. Many laws were passed to support and protect working people and their families and we aren’t done yet!

Jamey Cook and Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Charles Peters, who prosecuted the case, citing some of the obstacles in successfully bringing a case forward so many years after the fact. “Chuck and Jamey – what they did throughout this trial is amazing. It’s a testament to their abilities and their dedication to Fauquier County and to the victims,” said Hook, explaining for instance that more than 10,000 pages of files related to the case were discovered less than three months ago. Other documents referenced in existing case files couldn’t be found at all. In addition, some witnesses couldn’t enter the United States to testify because of travel restrictions during the pandemic. The many years that have elapsed since the incident gave last week’s trial a different character than most proceedings, which generally take place within a year or two of an alleged crime. Law enforcement witnesses relied heavily on notes taken years before when testifying from the stand. Civilian witnesses were often unable to remember exact dates or times, citing the many years that had passed since the events in question. Cultural barriers were also a factor. Jung only speaks Korean fluently and had to follow the proceedings through a translator. Several of the witnesses called by prosecutors also required Korean translators, which required deliberate phrasing from attorneys so that the translators could easily relay statements back and forth from the witness stand.

Man convicted of murdering Buddhist monk 13 years ago JUNG, from page 13 The English-speaking attorneys and judge also struggled sometimes with the Korean names, at times mixing up surnames and given names of the people involved in the case. Judge Herman Whisenant, who oversaw the trial, twice referred to Park as “Moses” instead of “Mogu,” and referred to the defendant several times as “Won Jung Jung.” Still, Whisenant pressed the trial along swiftly, at times admonishing the attorneys to keep their arguments concise. Fifteen prosecution witnesses took the stand over the course of two days, with a third day set aside for closing arguments and jury deliberations. The evidence against Jung centered mainly on that 2010 interview in the Las Vegas jail cell; no evidence collected after 2010 was presented at the trial. Phone data confirmed that Jung was in the Marshall area on the evening of June 23, 2008, and the next morning, according to testimony

from another federal agent. But no other evidence linked Jung to the crime scene and the murder weapon was never identified. Jung’s attorney, Blake Woloson, emphasized in his closing argument to the jury that the prosecutors failed to link his client definitively to the crime at all. “This case is an example of: What is reasonable doubt?” he said, arguing that prosecutors had failed to meet the burden of proof required for a conviction. In fact, Woloson declined to present any evidence in defense of his client, arguing that the prosecution’s case was so weak and circumstantial that there was no need to do so. Consequently, Jung never took the stand during the trial. For instance, Woloson said that the only evidence tying Jung to the crime scene was the defendant’s own statements, which were made during two hours-long interviews in a stressful situation. Although Jung was informed of his right not to incriminate himself during the 2010 interviews with federal agents, Woloson pointed to the agents’ testimony that Jung was highly emotional and distraught at points during their conversations — an apparent effort to discredit Jung’s statements at the time. Besides, Woloson said, “What purpose does [Jung] have to kill the person who was going to help him

“These details are important. Random killers don’t take off their shoes when they commit a murder.” JAMEY COOK Chief Deputy Commonwealth’s Attorney

[solicit money from Jung’s family]?” Woloson asked the jury, referencing his apparent plans to travel to Georgia with the monk. Woloson also emphasized that prosecutors hadn’t arrested Jung after the 2010 interview. “For the last 10 years [Jung] hasn’t been wanted,” he pointed out. But members of the jury ultimately agreed with the arguments of the prosecutors. Cook and Peters presented a case that cast Jung as an alcoholic with a gambling problem who had reason to resent Park’s high standing with the community. They especially emphasized a dispute between the two men in 2007 that testimony from witnesses said had each man accusing the other of not respecting Buddhist traditions. “Did all these grievances, combined with a large amount of alcohol, boil over and cause the defendant to do something he normally wouldn’t do?” asked Cook during her closing argument. “It’s certainly possible,” she said, noting that prosecutors were not legally required to prove a motive.

And, she argued, there is no reasonable alternative to the hypothesis that Jung killed Park. Woloson had at various points in the trial implied that an intruder could have entered the home and killed Park. Cook retorted that “All the evidence found at the scene points to one person: the defendant.” Cook pointed out, for instance, that the detectives on the scene could find no signs of forced entry or burglary. She emphasized that bloody impressions made by someone wearing socks — not shoes — were found leading from murder scene to the home’s kitchen. “These details are important,” said Cook. “Random killers don’t take off their shoes when they commit a murder. Random burglars don’t take off their shoes when they burglarize your house.” Someone living within Korean culture, on the other hand, would not wear shoes inside a house — much less a structure that served as a Buddhist temple — Cook said, arguing that Jung fits that profile.

COMMUNITY BRIEFS Wounded warriors golf outing A round of 18 holes is planned to benefit Wounded Warriors on Friday, Nov. 12 at Sly Fox golf course in Middletown. This event supports the nationwide Wounded Warrior Project, a non-profit charity and veterans service organization offering services for wounded veterans of military actions. The event will be played without official score cards. The goal is to shoot one’s best without any worries,

said planners. It’s anticipated some two dozen wounded vets will also participate in the event. A participating warrior can be sponsored for a $100 donation. The green fee is $100, with all of the money raised to go the deserving vets. To reserve a tee time or make a donation, those interested may contact organizer Bob Anderson at 540905-9806.

Hair-raising tours The Fauquier History Museum at the Old Jail on Oct. 23 and 30 will take thrill seekers for a journey through Warrenton’s history of terrifying occurrences, unexplainable happenings and scary paranormal sightings. Tours leave every 15 minutes beginning at 7 p.m.; the last tour begins at 8:30 p.m. Guests are guided from the Old Jail in Warrenton throughout the town on a walking tour, where interpreters will tell chilling true tales of

the spirits who haunt the buildings and byways. Advance registration is required for the six timeslots available each night. Tickets are $15 per person and are available through Eventbrite (ht t ps://w w w.eventbr ite.com /e/ warrenton-ghost-walk-tours-tickets-169348147869?aff =erelpanelorg). This tour is not suitable for children under 12, and all children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

New community of self advocates supports adults with disabilities The Arc of North Central Virginia and Rappahannock Rapidan Community Services have partnered in support of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to form Community of Self-Advocates of North Central Virginia. COSA supports adults ages 18plus with IDD living in Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison, Orange and Rappahannock Counties. Challenging for people with IDD to form friendships, find employment and enjoy recreational activities, COSA aims to provide options for participants to connect with each other and the community. Activities are currently offered virtually for safety, accessibility and

to give members experience with technology skills to reduce isolation for people with IDD. Community volunteers are needed to lead one-hour virtual events on topics related to their interests and/or areas of expertise. Representatives of local businesses are welcome. Demonstration ideas include: farm and/or domestic animals, healthy eating and wellness, exercise, travel experiences, trivia/game nights, virtual tours and crafts/hobbies. Volunteers are welcome on a onetime or ongoing basis. More information is available at https://www. arcofncv.org/cosa. Families in need of technological support should contact The Arc of NCV.

Man convicted of murdering Buddhist monk 13 years ago JUNG, from page 13 Jung later told shifting stories to the federal agents who spoke to him in the weeks and years after the homicide, Cook said, pointing to the agents’ testimony. Jung had at first denied knowing Park at all, then eventually admitted to being alone with Park at the residence and finding his body the next morning, according to the agents’ testimony. After traveling to New York City in the hours following Park’s death, Jung refused for weeks to meet with the agents in person; when he did agree to meet with them, he never showed up, according to the agents’ testimony. Jung finally met the two FBI agents face-to-face for the first time in 2010 in the Las Vegas jail cell, where he agreed to talk to them. “The commonwealth concedes that he never said: ‘I committed this crime,’” said Cook. But, she argued, the weight of the evidence overwhelmingly pointed to Jung’s guilt. “He was running. He was afraid of them,” she said of his behavior when federal agents tried to question him in the weeks after the homicide. “He was running from the truth in 2008, and he is still running today.” Reach Coy Ferrell at cferrell@fauquier.com

Orlean Day Festival set for this Saturday By Liam Bowman

The Orlean Market & Pub is located at 6855 Leeds Manor Road in Marshall.

Face painting and other children’s activities will be available throughout the day.

Ten local musicians and bands will perform at the festival.

Kia Kianersi (far right) has run Orlean Market since 2014.

The small hamlet of Orlean will be celebrating its 206th anniversary Oct. 9, with a day of live music, barbecue and outdoor activities. The Celebrate Orlean Day Festival, hosted at Orlean Market & Pub, will feature local food vendors, beer and wine tasting, an obstacle course and moon bounce for the kids and a rotating bill of musicians from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Community leaders will also give a presentation exploring the history of the area. Admission is free, but parking costs $20 per car. Proceeds will be donated to the Orlean Volunteer Fire Department. Pets are not permitted at the festival. About 20 minutes west of Warrenton, Orlean Market and Pub has long acted as a gathering place for the surrounding community. As one of the few businesses in the sparsely populated area, it’s an important source of groceries, gas, and entertainment for local residents, said Kia Kianersi, who took over ownership in 2014. There’s always a “super close niche of people who come around here,” said Kianersi. “We’re kind of an essential place for our community.” Deli meats, cheese, baked goods, craft beer and local produce are all on offer.

sive menu includes breakfast favorites, pizza, sandwiches and seafood. A point of pride for Kianersi, who spent years as a hospitality consultant and event planner in Washington, D.C., has been his effort to create a “hub” of entertainment and events in the otherwise sleepy area. “We’ve been able to add an entertainment aspect that gives people the option to stay here,” he said, rather than being forced to travel in search of entertainment. Putting on events like the Celebrate Orlean Day Festival also helps to draw new customers from elsewhere. “We’re out of the way,” Kianersi admitted, “so we have to attract our own crowd.” In addition to the upcoming festival, Orlean Market regularly hosts live music, open mic nights, “Sip & Paint” art workshops and corn hole tournaments.

OPINION WWW.FAUQUIER.COM

Fauquier Times | October 6, 2021

Fauquier County parent warns against ‘thought police’ in local schools Imagine if all school curriculum was dictated by our Virginia elected officials. Where the Virginia Department of Education, senators, delegates, and school boards controlled exactly what teachers could teach and even what they could say in the classroom. No dissenting views. No minority or unpopular opinions could be expressed. No review process, no arguments, no variance. Sounds pretty dystopian, doesn’t it? Almost an anathema to the independent character and self-determination that founded our state and our county. Fauquier is a county founded on innovation and individual liberty. Jefferson, who lived just down the road, started the radical idea that our new nation would be

made more prosperous and democracy would grow stronger if every child received an education at the public’s expense. From the brave teachers in oneroom schools to education innovators today, Fauquier County has relied on our professional teachers to manage their curriculum and teaching styles and chafed when too many impositions, like SOLs and SQLs, dictate too much of what teachers spend their time on, pulling them away from teaching a broader curriculum. Unfortunately, there are those trying to impose a standardized curriculum that doesn’t allow our trained educators control over what is taught in schools. They are certain they know what is best for our students and demand school

systems do what they say. Then everyone would learn the correct story of our nation, and we would come together and unite without opposition. It may surprise you to learn that the party planning to impose its will universally on the teachers of Fauquier County, the party that wants to monitor everything teachers say and do, the party that wants teachers and administrators to inform on each other, to cancel teachers who veer off-script and teach uncomfortable subjects like history and free thinking, is the party of Glenn Youngkin, the Republican Party of Virginia. In its all-out war on the mythical threat of “critical race theory’’ or CRT, it has advocated for total control over the classroom. When asked what CRT is, where it is taught,

and how learning an accurate and inclusive history of our country and our county can possibly injure students, all the GOP can do is recycle tired talking points from its outrage factories. If the GOP gets to dictate what local teachers and schools can teach, what is its next target? Will all critical reasoning and thinking be outlawed in favor of a unified narrative we have to adhere to? Why does Glenn Youngkin want to impose his thought about police on our school teachers? What type of authoritarian control will he impose next? If you care about an education system free of control by politicians and extremists, vote Democrat in November. MIKE HAMMOND New Baltimore

Democratic leadership has been good for Virginia families The past four years under Democratic leadership have resulted in positive results for Virginians. Just to name a few: Economy: The Center Square, compiling data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Census Bureau, and the U.S. Department of Commerce/Bureau of Economic Analysis and taking COVID pandemic contraction into consideration, ranked Virginia 11th in the United States on economic growth in recent years. (“How Virginia’s Economy Compares to Other States,” May 20) Voting: Voting options to include early absentee and early in-person voting have expanded accessibility to the ballot box for everyone, especially senior citizens with limited transportation options, people with disabilities, people incapacitated or hospitalized on Election Day, workers whose schedules make it difficult to get to the polls and voters who can’t set aside hours to stand in line to vote on a particular date. ID safeguards continue to be in

place, including federal voter ID laws (The Help America Vote Act of 2002 -- https://www.justice.gov/ crt/help-america-vote-act-2002.) Virginia Driver Privilege Cards are not an acceptable form of voter ID. (www.elections.virginia.gov/registration and www.elections.virginia. gov/voterID Expanded access to healthcare: More citizens have access to affordable healthcare as well as access to virtual healthcare. Virtual access to healthcare is particularly important in rural areas where local hospitals and walk-in clinics have closed and doctors have moved away. (www. healthinsurance.org and search for Medicaid/Virginia; www.ruralhealthinfo.org/resoures/topics/broadband) Minimum wage: Minimum wage increased to $9.50 an hour with phased-in increases to $15 an hour possible beginning in January of 2026. (law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/40.1-28.10) Protections for children and victims of domestic violence:

Sensible changes to firearms laws provide protections for children from unsecured firearms and help protect victims of domestic violence from perpetrators with guns. Gun owners’ due process rights are preserved. Public places and voting locations are safer.

COVID complicates health care: Know where to go to get the care you need Efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19 have resulted in many new practices for hospitals, outpatient centers and medical offices. As always, it is important to seek out the right level of care based on presenting needs. Use your primary care provider during normal business hours for non-emergent conditions or symptoms. Your primary care provider knows your medical history and should be your first line of defense for any illness or disease that isn’t a medical emergency. Think cough and cold, flu, stomach upset, chronic conditions like diabetes or

high blood pressure and more. They should also be your regular resource for preventive care, including annual wellness visits, routine vaccinations, smoking cessation, diet and exercise consultations. You may notice that there are fewer people in the office than before. Many providers continue to intentionally spacing patient visits to support social distancing measures – in addition to masking and hand hygiene. Your provider may also offer telehealth services in an effort to support social distancing while continuing regular patient care. Providers offering telehealth may

do your visit over the phone or through video conferencing. Check your provider’s website or call their office to determine if telehealth is available and appropriate for your needs. Use an urgent care or walk-in clinic for moderate/worsening symptoms when prompt primary care is not available or after normal business hours. Using an urgent care or walkin clinic is a great option if your primary care provider is not readily available, or if it is after normal business hours and your primary care provider’s office is closed. Urgent cares and walk-in clinics

commonly treat people for cough and cold, flu, ear infections and allergies, skin conditions, minor injuries and more. Some urgent cares or walk-in clinics have X-ray capabilities onsite as well. Similar to your primary care provider’s office, you will most likely be asked to wear a mask during your visit. This helps to protect you, staff members and other patients. Some urgent cares or walk-in clinics may have digital wait-in-line tools to reduce your time spent in the waiting room. You can sign up for your slot ahead of time and arrive for your appointment.

ANOTHER PICK SIX BY DINICOLANTONIO Liberty hangs tough, but potent Kettle Run prevails 35-9 By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

The renewal of THIS WEEK’S the Liberty-KetGAMES tle Run football FAUQUIER rivalry – the 16th (2-4): Friday at meeting between Kettle Run, 7 the county powp.m. ers – saw both KETTLE RUN teams looking (5-1): Friday their best for LibHOME vs. erty’s HomecomFauquier, 7 ing in Bealeton. LIBERTY (0Liberty wore 4): Friday at their bright red Sherando, 7 jerseys, Kettle Run wore white with orange numbers. The game featured strong defense, with Kettle Run (5-1 overall, 2-0 district) pulling away in the second half to win 35-9. The 26-point margin represented Kettle Run’s biggest win in the rivalry and their second win in a row over the Eagles this year. Kettle Run downed Liberty 26-7 in April as part of the delayed 2020 season. Liberty still leads the series 10-6. Liberty fell to 0-4 for the first time since 1999, but showed signs of progress, playing smash-mouth defense

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/COY FERRELL

Dominant defense helped Kettle Run (5-1) pull away from rival Liberty 35-9 last week. The Eagles (0-4) still lead the series 10-6. against the reigning Northwestern District champion Cougars, who have a deep and experienced team. “We knew it would be a physical game. The message we imparted to the kids is that it will be a battle of county schools and it will be a tough game,” said Kettle Run coach Charlie Porterfield. Kettle Run mustered just one offensive touchdown in the first half as

the Eagles stopped the Cougars’ first four drives. Three Cougars who don’t normally score found the end zone for the second straight week, reprising their heroics from a week earlier in a 4228 win over James Wood. Just like against Wood, cornerback Kamran Dinicolantonio had his second straight pick six interception return touchdown to open the

Cougars’ scoring. It came after the Eagles stopped the Cougars’ first two drives. On second down Dinicolantonio stepped in front of a Liberty pass in the right flat intended for Joey Triplett, controlled it and raced 47 yards up the sideline to make it 7-0 with 7:40 left in the first quarter.

Eagles threaten, but Kettle Run responds to win in four sets Falcons fighting health issues By Fred Hodge

Special to the Fauquier Times

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/COY FERRELL

Ashley Wise (No. 3) and Mia Jones (No. 5) have helped Kettle Run to a 7-6 record so far.

Kettle Run took control in the third set last week to pull away from visiting Liberty for a 2513, 18-25, 25-17, 25-11 Northwestern District volleyball win. The Cougars (3-4 district, 7-6 overall) cruised in the opening set, but the Eagles (0-6 district, 2-7 overall) changed the momentum thanks to outside hitter Kendall Turner, whose hot hitting dominated the second set. “I have to give Liberty credit because they started playing with confidence after (Turner) put some balls down for kills,” Kettle Run coach Mike Howard said. “She is a good player. It kind of surprised us because she wasn’t really on in the first set.” Howard said his team made third-set adjustments that helped to change the momentum back to the hosts. “The Liberty match was a good one for us after a homecoming weekend. The girls were ready to play but Liberty put up a good fight in the second set,” Howard said. “Going into the fourth set, I feel that our depth took over and wore Liberty down. It was a good overall team effort.” See VOLLEYBALL, page 23

‘THE GIRLS ARE OVER-THE-MOON EXCITED’ Kettle Run, Liberty triumph in suspenseful overtime games By Fred Hodge

Special to the Fauquier Times

Two separate overtime games on Sept. 28 showed how tight the four-team Northwestern District race is. Right now, there is no clear favorite with Kettle Run at 2-2, and Fauquier, Liberty and Meridian at 1-1. “This was one game they really wanted to win. I knew they would play hard to make that happen,” said Kettle Run coach Julie Kuhlberg, whose girls took down Fauquier 3-2 on Kiersten Johannesen’s golden goal with seven minutes, 33 seconds remaining in the 15-minute OT period for a 3-2 Cougar win. Elsewhere, Liberty also made inroads in the district race by recording its first district victory with a shootout over Meridian after neither scored in OT. “The girls were over-the-moon excited after

District standings Kettle Run 2-2 Fauquier 1-1 Liberty 1-1 Meridian 1-1

the game was won,” said Liberty co-coach Erin Burton. “There is nothing quite like winning after a hard fought, well matched game.”

Cougars gets revenge

Kettle Run (7-3) avenged an earlier 3-2 loss to the Falcons by rallying from 1-0 and 2-1 deficits. The Cougars controlled play for the final 10 minutes of the first quarter, but the score was 0-0 after the period. Fauquier (5-4-1) made a big push to open the second quarter, forcing a penalty corner 86 seconds into the period. The ball ended up on the goal cage’s doorstep with Cougar Natalie Escobar going to the ground to block as much of the goal as possible. Falcon Zofeya Maldonado dug the ball out of the scrum, setting up teammate Kennedy Kolar for a 1-0 edge at the 13:15 mark. See FIELD HOCKEY, page 23

Fauquier ended a three-game losing streak to Millbrook by winning 21-6 Friday.

Are you tired yet, Dylan? Falcons beat Millbrook as Taylor carries 48 times By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

Dylan Taylor’s workload was the stuff of legends in last Friday’s 21-6 win at Millbrook. The NFL record for rushing attempts in a game is 45, and the Fauquier High senior running back topped that, carrying 48 times for 243 yards and two touchdowns as the Falcons pulled out a much-needed win in Winchester. Over and over Taylor kept getting the ball, helping Fauquier (2-4) improve to 1-1 in district play entering Friday’s game at first place Kettle Run (5-1, 2-0). “Dylan was hot and was on a roll so we kept giving it to him,” said Fauquier coach Karl Buckwalter. “He was getting your classic five, eight, four, six yards and we were just grinding, using up the clock.” Asked if he gave Taylor Monday off from practice, Buckwalter laughed. “No, he’s happy. This game gave him a lot of confidence.” With Leo Rodriguez and Grayson Kramer serving as the blocking back, Taylor often ran the same play. “Leo and Grayson are two young men who get after you. Dylan was finding a hole. He has good vision,

and if something’s not there, he bounced it,” Buckwalter said. Fauquier’s first TD came on Ben Noland’s seven-yard pass to John Bynaker for a 7-0 lead. Millbrook (0-5) closed to 7-6 by halftime. Taylor had second half TD runs of one and three yards.

Falcons vs. Cougars next

The Falcons, whose 2-4 record includes a forfeit, improved to 1-1 in district play and have a shot to make things interesting in the Northwestern District race if they can upset Kettle Run (2-0) Friday. Kettle Run coach Charlie Porterfield sees the Falcons improving. “I think they’re very good. You watch the film and their defense is super-talented. They’ve not given up 30 points all year, holding Handley to 28. They’re very well coached on defense and found a way to grow every week,” said Porterfield. “Right now, we’re trying not to look too far ahead but we’re keeping track of how everyone’s doing,” said Porterfield. “It’s one of those years where there’s never an easy week in the district.” Said Buckwalter: “Kettle Run’s loaded. They should be good. It’s a big game, a neighborhood game.”

“It’s rare. I’m trying to think if I’ve ever seen it before,” said Porterfield. “I’ve seen a guy return two punts for touchdowns in two games but not a pick-six twice in a row. Kam played it well. He broke on the ball and jumped the play.” The teams continued to stymie each other offensively until shortly before halftime when Eagle quarterback Austin Mawyer connected with Joey Triplett on a deep route, good for 45 yards to the Kettle Run 3-yard line. Three failed attempts to punch it in led to Nick Paratore’s 27-yard field goal, making it 7-3 with 2:38 left before halftime. Taking over on their own 23, Kettle Run drove 77 yards in two minutes to make it 14-3 as Beau Lang scrambled and threw a dart to tight end Abram Chumley, who made a tough catch in the back of the end zone under tight coverage. Like Dinicolantonio, Chumley also scored the previous week with a great catch. Porterfield noted that Chumley, a junior who starts at defensive end, is closing in on the school sack record. Now his offense is opening eyes. “He’s a Chumley, we expect him to be a great player,” said Porterfield, referencing Abam’s older brothers Casen, Gabe and Elijah who were Cougar superstars. “We knew Abam could handle the blocking assignment but we’re incredibly impressed with his receiving ability.” Despite playing tough defense, Liberty had problems on offense as the Cougars scored three second half TDs to put the game away. Liberty’s Colby Lewis recovered a fumble on the Kettle Run 25 to open the third, but after Cody Owens’ reached the Cougar 13 on a sixyard run, the drive stalled, leading to a missed 32-yard field goal attempt.

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/COY FERRELL

Kettle Run cornerback Kamran Dinicolantonio picked off this pass and raced 47 yards for the first points. Kettle Run embarked on an 80yard TD drive, which produced a one-yard TD run by Beau Lang on fourth down, which made it 21-3 with 1:27 left in the third. Kettle Run’s Andrew Strickland then recovered a fumble off Liberty hook-and-ladder play, leading to freshman Colton Quaker’s four-yard TD run. Quaker carried 15 times for 125 yards and scored for the second straight week. With Peyton Mehaffey out due to injury suffered against James Wood, Quaker has looked dynamic. “We have a stable of running backs in Strickland, Mehaffey, Logan Branham and Quaker. All are linebackers as well. We can space the carries out,” Porterfield said. Strickland, who carried 11 times for 79 yards, added a two-yard TD run to make it 35-3 with 5:55 left. Kelsi Navin kicked Kettle Run’s final two extra points. Liberty added a late TD on a fouryard TD run by Owens with 23 seconds left.

Eagles win in triple overtime FIELD HOCKEY, from page 22 Four minutes later, Kettle Run commenced a lengthy push with Kaitlyn Nakamura finding an opening to tie it 1-1 with 1:42 remaining in the half. Both teams forced two corners in the third quarter, but the score remained 1-1. Fauquier’s early surge in the early minutes of the fourth period produced a goal off a penalty corner as Maldonado converted with 12:36 left in regulation. Kolar was credited with the assist. Trailing 2-1, Kettle Run increased its intensity to force a tie as Nakamura stood alone in the center of the circle and scored her second unassisted goal with 4:21 left. The Cougars then had three corners in the final 70 seconds of regulation, but Fauquier survived. In overtime, Fauquier had a brief penetration into its offensive circle before Kettle Run again became the aggressor. The Falcons turned the ball over near midfield, with Cougars Nakamura and Johannesen advancing unimpeded toward the goal. Johannesen possessed a loose ball after a stop, maneuvered around the keeper and scored into the open cage for her team’s second district win. “[Fauquier] is a great team that is fun to play and watch,” Kuhlberg said, adding appreciation for the Cougars play. “They worked on several things at practice, and we saw their hard work and progress on the field.” Nakamura continued a prolific week two days later with all four goals in a 4-0 home win over Highland School. Nakamura scored once

in each quarter. “Moving her to attack (from midfield) was a good decision on our part,” Kuhlberg said. Katelyn Stone and Charlotte Bloom recorded assists.

Liberty wins in triple overtime

Liberty’s shootout win over Meridian included a scoreless first half in Falls Church. Eagle Summer Butler gave Liberty (2-5) a 1-0 lead off an Emma Carter assist with 9:31 left in the third quarter. The Mustangs retaliated to tie six minutes later. The two squads continued the deadlock at 1-1 through the end of regulation play, leading into the 15-minute overtime period. No one scored, setting up a session of five alternating strokers going one on one against a goalie. That period concluded 3-3with Eagles Nicole Cabanban, Butler and Emma Costanzo scoring. The continued deadlock moved the game into a sudden-victory round. This time, Costanzo and Butler scored for a 5-4 margin in goals. “The girls continued to play hard throughout and were determined to get the ball down the field to score,” said Liberty co-coach Erin Burton, who lauded goalkeeper Ellie Mcgee’s play, especially in extra time. The decision was Liberty’s second shootout win of the fall. Earlier, the Eagles had dispatched Orange in a single shootout round. “It is very important to get a district win because we know that we are moving in the right direction to get where we want to be this season,” Burton said.

FOOD VENDORS GAMES

Falcons struggle to stay healthy VOLLEYBALL, from page 21 Kettle Run’s top hitters were Zoe Lilly (13 kills), Megan May (nine) and Tessa Falsone (seven). Mia Jones tallied 10 service points, Mattie Heflin and Haley Balgavy each added eight. Heflin also collected 14 digs. Balgavy, the starting setter, had to leave the Liberty match early because of a hip injury previously sustained in practice. She was not available two days later at second-place James Wood, leading to some rhythm issues, Howard said of the 25-11, 25-23, 2512 defeat that dropped his group to 7-6 overall. “We were out of sync,” Howard said, pointing out the Colonels also were playing well on defense. “James Wood is a difficult place to play. “We were in it in the second set, but a few errors late let the set get away from us. We played well in the third set but could not get kills for our effort.”

Falcon travails continue

Entering Monday’s practice, Fauquier has gone 32 days without a fully healthy squad available. That span began after the Sept. 2 Brentsville match and has increased to 11 consecutive

matches, leaving first-year Falcon coach Jen Linthicum exasperated. Fauquier (2-3 district, 7-7 overall) experienced a nine-day shutdown due to several players testing positive for COVID-19. Many others have been battling the rampant respiratory viruses flooding the school system. “My biggest fear has come to fruition unfortunately this year,” Linthicum lamented. “We haven’t had a game since Brentsville where I have had my full 100 percent healthy operating team. “It’s so hard right now,” LInthicum stated. Fauquier beat Eastern View 2520, 25-19, 25-12 early last week in a non-district match. The Falcons then traveled to league-leading Millbrook last Thursday and dropped its second match of the fall against the Pioneers, 25-17, 25-18, 25-14. Sophomore Caroline Towle was the leading hitter against Eastern View with 12 kills to seven for Emma Edwards, six by Emma Zewatsky and Leah Kelso’s four. Marcela Lawhorn was the top server with 16 points. Stephanie Clark followed with nine points, Skyler Furr had seven and Edwards six. Meredith Wayland collected nine digs.

Charles Eugene Johnson III Charles Eugene Johnson III, fondly known as “Gene,” was welcomed into the kingdom of Heaven on September 26th, 2021. Born November 6, 1948 in Baltimore, Maryland, he was the son of the late Dorothy Ijams Johnson and Charles Eugene Johnson II, and the brother of the late Edward “Ned” Johnson. Gene grew up in Takoma Park Maryland and enjoyed playing golf and swimming at the local country club. He graduated from High Point High School in 1966 and began his career as a musician, playing in and around DC area nightclubs in the 1970’s. He loved to sing and had a beautiful voice. The highlight of his career was when his band, Tractor, opened for Joe Cocker at the Philadelphia Coliseum in 1979. It was his pleasure to teach his children to sing harmony and melody. Later in life, Gene’s love of music transitioned into performances with the Fauquier Community Theater and singing in local church choirs. Gene is survived by his children, Alex Johnson (Amanda) and Libbi Moore (Patrick), and his grandchildren Calvin, Ellie, Amelia, Paisley, Laila, and Evelyn. Always a lover of nature and farm life, Gene bought a small farm in Catlett in 1976 where he owned and bred horses, made hay, adopted cats and dogs, and taught his children to care for animals and the land around them. A family favorite pastime was trail riding through the woods and neighboring farms. Prior to owning a farm and raising a family, Gene lived and worked on a horse farm that later was acquired by the National Park Service and became the Manassas National Battlefield Park. In addition to his love for music and animals, Gene loved history and was a published author in the North South Trader Magazine and a collector of Civil War relics. He was extremely well-read, particularly in history and religion, and spent a lot of time visiting various historical sites with his children. When he wasn’t in Catlett enjoying a simple, organic life, he could be found in Fenwick Island, Delaware, where he spent his summers as a child and continued the tradition with his own children. Throughout his adult life, Gene could be found playing softball on the Catlett Fireman’s team, coaching t-ball, leading boy scouts, and was an avid supporter of the Brandy Station Foundation. In his later years, with loving support from his son and daughter, Gene battled an aggressive form of dementia called Lewy Body Dementia. He is greatly missed and will continue to be treasured for the life he lived and the multitude of people he inspired. Memorial services will be 2:00 PM on Saturday, October 9th at Nokesville Church of the Brethren, 13002 Fitzwater Dr, Nokesville, VA 20181. Masks are required. Memorial gifts may be made to the Brandy Station Foundation.

Jack spent his career as a retailer with Sears Roebuck & Co where he started his career as an associate in the service department and ended his career here in Winchester as the manager of the Sears in the Apple Blossom Mall.

Iva was born on July 10, 1927, was married at about age 13 and gave birth to six children by the time she was 35.

Iva lived most of her life in Manassas and in retirement years with our Dad, they divided their time between a home in Florida and a home in Culpeper. She was active in the Culpeper United Methodist Church Women’s Circle and was also involved in the Culpeper Chapter of the American Legion.

Shirley was born on January 6, 1963 in Manassas, Virginia, and was raised on a farm in Catharpin, Virginia. Her parents taught her to be responsible, appreciate what she had, and to look out for others. Shirley stated that her proudest accomplishment was being the best mom she could be, which she said at times was a challenge. Mission work was a large part of her life, and one of her proudest civic accomplishments. A devout Christian woman, Shirley made it one of her life’s goals to bring as many people to Christ as she could through love and compassion. Shirley retired from Stonewall Memory Gardens in June of 2021. The lives of those she touched during her 10 plus years as a compassionate and caring member of the bereavement industry made her a valuable asset to the community as a whole. Always a family woman, Shirley took every opportunity she had to spend with the people she loved. Alongside the love of her life, Tim, she travelled the world. Ireland, Scotland, Iceland, England, Alaska, New Zealand, and her favorite, Australia were just a few of the many places they made memories together.

Caroline B. Cronan Caroline B. Cronan, age 94, of Manassas, Virginia, passed away peacefully on September 24, 2021. Caroline was born February 19, 1927, in Concord, Massachusetts to Everett William and Eva Leslie (Sanborn) Bowker. Caroline moved to Maryland to live with her sister Elinor and her family shortly after completing her schooling at Bryant and Stratton Commercial School in Boston. She met and fell in love with Gerald L. Cronan (Jerry) where they both worked at General Electric in Washington D.C., spending their lunch breaks talking instead of eating. Jerry’s older sister Angela, who also worked there at GE, was responsible for introducing them. They were married on April 17, 1948, at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Alexandria, Virginia. They raised four children in the course of moving from Virginia to New Jersey and later to Maryland before returning to Virginia and taught them that it is more important to be respected than to be liked.

MOURNING COLORS Black, the color most typically associated with mourning and funeral attire in the West, has been worn for centuries; however, it is not the color for mourning everywhere. Many different countries and cultures have their own ideas about acceptable mourning colors. In many Asian countries, people wear white mourning clothes, which represent purity and rebirth. In South Africa, red is considered a color of mourning, while in China, it symbolizes joy and fertility. In addition to black, purple is worn in Central and South America, where the color has a sacred and spiritual meaning. Widows commonly wear purple in Thailand. Grey and gold have also been worn traditionally, with gold being the color of royal mourning in ancient Egypt. The entire fashion industry as we know it has roots in mourning dress dating back to the Victorian era. When deciding what to wear to a funeral it is always best to go conservative. While it’s true that you don’t have to wear black, you should dress in a way that shows respect. That means avoiding bright colors, flashy prints, and glittery fabrics. To learn more about our services, please call MOSER FUNERAL HOME at (540) 347-3431. We invite you to tour our facility at 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton. Ask us about our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY, just outside of Warrenton. “For death is no more than a turning of us over from time to eternity.”

5. ORDINANCE TO ADMINISTER AND ENFORCE LOCAL TAXES ON SALE OR USE OF CIGARETTES – A public hearing to consider an ordinance pursuant to the authority of Code of Virginia §58.1-3830 to levy upon every person who sells or uses cigarettes within the County a tax of $0.40 per 20-cigarette package or $0.02 per cigarette for packs containing less than 20 cigarettes sold within the County on or after January 1, 2022. The Northern Virginia Cigarette Tax Board (“NVCTB”) is designated to promulgate resolutions, administer and enforce the cigarette tax.

Under the ordinance, any violation is a Class 1 misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $2,500.00 or imprisonment for up to twelve (12) months or by both, none of which relieves the person from the payment of any tax, penalty or interest. The ordinance also authorizes seizure or confiscation of cigarettes, packages, and vending machines, and sealing of vending machines.
