As COVID-19 cases rise, some teachers say they don’t feel safe at school By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
Masks slide down little noses repeatedly; arms reach out for hugs that teachers and counselors don’t have the heart to deny; and restless feet stray from squares taped on classroom floors intended to keep kids and teachers at least 6 feet apart. Those are some of the behaviors that teachers currently instructing Prince William County’s youngest students inside school buildings say are routinely thwarting mitigation efforts intended to keep COVID-19 from spreading and making people sick. And as the county’s COVID-19 percent-positivity rate and infections per capita remain high, teachers say they worry things will only get worse
as thousands more students begin in-person instruction in January. At the same time, teachers with underlying health conditions that place them at a higher risk for developing complications to COVID-19 are also expressing concern. A few such teachers said in interviews last week they are being forced to make what they consider an impossible choice: risk their health by returning to teach in person in January or quit. One high school English teacher with 23 years of experience said her mind is already made up. Unless she can continue teaching virtually, she’s leaving her students mid-year to take a leave of absence. “I’ve been told by my doctor I have no business going to the grocery store. So if I can’t go to the grocery store, I can’t go to work,” said the teach-
er, who asked that her name and school not be printed. “Prince William County schools can put another warm body in the classroom, but I can’t replace me and my family can’t replace me.” Such sentiments are why members of the county’s teachers’ union are pleading with Superintendent Steven Walts and the school board to halt plans to bring multiple grades of students back into Prince William schools for hybrid instruction after the holiday break. They also want Walts to develop a set of COVID-19 metric thresholds to guide decisions about return-to-school plans as has been done in Loudoun and Fairfax counties. See TEACHERS, page 2
Thanksgiving likely a ‘super-spreader’ event in Virginia By Jill Palermo

The data are in: Thanksgiving “appears to have been a super-spreader event in Virginia” that triggered a surge in new cases that’s now expected to peak at 98,000 a week in early February. That’s according to the most recent analysis of the state’s COVID-19 data by the University of Virginia’s Biocomplexity Institute and the Rand Corporation. “New confirmed cases are spiking and nearly reached 4,000 [a] day on average,” the Dec. 17 Rand Corporation report stated. “Thanksgiving appears to have been a super-spreader event.” The post-Thanksgiving surge led to a “substantial increase” in the projection for new cases over the winter months, when cold weather, time spent indoors, pandemic fatigue and holiday travel were already exacerbating Virginia’s third wave of the pandemic, which began in mid-October.

2 TEACHERS, from page 1 “Right now, we’re calling for a safe and secure school year, and with numbers rising, we think virtual will be best,” said Maggie Hansford, president of the Prince William Education Association. “And we continue to ask for some sort of standards.” But so far, only Occoquan School Board Representative Lillie Jessie said she agreed with the teachers’ call to put the brakes on plans to allow second- and third-grade students to return for two-day-a-week hybrid instruction starting on Monday, Jan. 12. And only Jessie and Potomac District Representative Justin Wilk said they see a need for the school board to set public metrics to guide decisions about returning more students to schools. Wilk, however, said the tool should measure school division readiness -- in terms of staffing, internet bandwidth in schools and adequate personal protective gear for teachers -- rather than health metrics, which he said are best handled by the school division’s pandemic team. Wilk said he spent several hours on a recent Friday observing in a kindergarten class of six students and felt reassured by what he saw. “I saw more than enough distribution of PPE. I saw more than 6 feet distance. I saw effective mitigation strategies,” Wilk said, noting that students wore masks and had plexiglass shields on their desks. Other school board members reached for comment said the COVID-19 numbers are too complex to set hard-and-fast cutoffs. “I really think Dr. Walts and his mitigation team are making the best decision with what the team has to give him,” said Coles District Representative Lisa Zargarpur.
Ansher: ‘Not my role’ to decide about in-person instruction
Prince William Health District Director Dr. Alison Ansher said this week that while she has been advising the school division’s pandemic team, she does not give school officials an opinion on the safety of returning students to schools for in-person instruction. In a Dec. 17 email, Ansher said “it’s not my role” to give such advice to local schools. “That is not my decision. It is a superintendent and school board decision,” she said. Ansher said she has provided school division officials updated COVID-19 guidance and has provided advice on how to handle certain situations that come up in schools. “We have not seen concerning student-to-student transmission for those students who are attending school for an educational purpose,” Ansher said. “The cases we have seen have been mostly in others in the school community that have required close contacts to be quarantined.” In a Nov. 17 email, Ansher noted that decisions about in-person instruction lie with Walts, the school board and parents themselves. “Ultimately the decision is up to the school superintendent, school
Prince William Times | www.princewilliamtimes.com | December 23, 2020
board and community as to the risk they are willing to take regarding the method of learning and school activities,” she said.
Jessie: Prince William ‘a hot spot’
Jessie said she’s concerned that Prince William has become “a hot spot” of COVID-19 and that setting metric thresholds would provide more insight into Walts’ decision-making about in-school instruction. Jessie said she was flooded with worried emails from teachers leading up to the winter break, expressing concern about the county’s already sky-high local COVID-19 numbers spiking again after the holiday break as they did after Thanksgiving. Both the county’s percent-positivity rate on COVID-19 tests and its rate of infection, at 16.6% and 43 on Monday, Dec. 21, respectively, have been the highest in Northern Virginia for weeks. “My main concern is that we not bring in any more kids until we better understand the Thanksgiving surge and the Christmas surge,” Jessie said. “I think these teachers are scared to death.” As of last week, the school division was instructing about 5,000 pre-K through first-grade students in schools on a hybrid schedule, meaning students are in classes two days a week, along with special education students and some English language learners. The school division’s plan ramps up considerably after the holiday break, with second- and third-graders returning on Jan. 12-13; grades four, five, six and nine returning on Jan. 26; and all other grades returning on Feb. 2. All students can remain virtual if they want to. Those who opt for in-person instruction will attend school two days a week and work from home the other three. School board members have said they gave Walts the authority to make decisions about in-person instruction because he has the most up-to-date COVID-19 information and they did not want to hamper his decision-making. Jessie acknowledged the school board, as elected officials in charge of the school division, could override Walts’ decisions if they want to. “We could, but I am not sure I have the votes,” Jessie said. “We are the final decision makers.” School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef (At Large) said he’s comfortable with leaving the decision to Walts believes the “damage being done to learning” because of the pandemic “is of national emergency proportions.” Lateef acknowledged however that he is “nervous” about a possible spike in cases after the holidays. “We are going to be watching that very closely,” he said.
Walts sticks with ‘comprehensive assessment’ of metrics Walts declined an interview, but Prince William County schools spokeswoman Diana Gulotta reiterated what Walts has said repeatedly – that he uses “a comprehensive decision-making process” for school decisions that “continue[s] to [be] refine[d] based on most recent local,

state, and federal guidance.” Gulotta also noted there so far have been no COVID-19 outbreaks in any school buildings, as defined by the Virginia Department of Health despite the school division’s own dashboard showing 264 cases involving school division students and staff in December. Most cases involve students and staff working remotely, although some have required some students and staff to quarantine. The monthly case counts have risen steadily over the fall, as they have in the community. The dashboard reports 50 cases in September, 84 in October, 212 in November and 264 in December. Regarding whether teachers with underlying health condition will be required to return to classrooms, Gulotta said the school division is still working through interviews with such employees, who “may qualify for accommodation in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.” Three teachers interviewed this week said they’ve already been through the process and have been told their accommodations do not include the option to remain virtual. It’s not clear how many Prince William teachers and staff have applied for such accommodations. Hansford said she believes 10%
of the 11,000-member staff might qualify. School board members said they had just begun hearing from such teachers and empathize, but also note such decisions are personnel matters that fall outside the school board’s control. Woodbridge School Board Representative Loree Williams said she understands such teachers were initially told they could remain virtual. But Williams said certain teachers and staff must be in the buildings to do their jobs and schools might not have the money to hire extra aides to monitor students in person while high-risk teachers instruct from home.. Regarding teachers who say the mitigation strategies aren’t working, Williams and other school board members said so far they haven’t heard many complaints about that. In general, Williams she is not in favor of bringing any students and staff into school buildings “unless it’s absolutely necessary.” “I want to be all virtual. That’s what I’ve been saying from the getgo,” Williams said. “But I’m not going to stand in the way of having a child who needs to be in the building, be in the building.” Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com Classified Sales Consultant Jeanne Cobert, 540-878-2491 jcobert@fauquier.com

County directs $750K grant to future town center By Daniel Berti
Times Staff Writer
Prince William County officials are boosting a $380 million mixed-use, “town center” redevelopment project slated for North Woodbridge with a $750,000 economic development grant, the first of its kind dedicated to such a project. The 19-acre redevelopment is being pursued by North Woodbridge TC, LLC – which includes developers IDI Group Companies and Boosalis Properties -- and will consist of multiple phases being built over the next five to 10 years. It’s planned to include 850 new apartments and up to 160,000 square feet of retail space at the corner of U.S. 1 and Occoquan Road across from the Woodbridge VRE station. “IDI spearheaded redevelopment efforts in Woodbridge with Rivergate, our signature riverfront community consisting of 720 luxury apartments in two buildings. We’re thrilled to participate in this next major project in north Woodbridge’s new town center,” Carlos Cecchi, of the IDI Group, said in a press release. The development comes on the heels of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors’ approval of the North Woodbridge small area plan in 2019, which aimed to create more opportunities for transit-oriented and high-density development in the area. The plan envisions an extension of the Metro’s Blue line to Woodbridge, although that has yet to be formally proposed or even studied and is likely a long way off. The board of supervisors unanimously ap-

It is the first project of its kind to receive a grant funding from the EDOF. The county recently amended its “targeted industry” list to help identify and foster redevelopment areas, allowing companies or projects locating in a designated redevelopment area to qualify for incentives. The money is a “pay-for-performance” grant, which requires the developer to achieve specific milestones in order to receive the incentive, the county press release said.
County board advances study of civilian review board for police By Daniel Berti
Times Staff Writer
Prince William’s Board of County Supervisors decided Tuesday, Dec. 15, to study the creation of a civilian review board that could be empowered to investigate the county’s police department over claims of abuse and misconduct – and possibly mete out punishment for officers who break the rules. The board voted 7-1 to move the proposal forward, with only Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, voting against it. The initiative was spearheaded by Supervisor Kenny Boddye, D-Occoquan, and it has received the backing of the county’s NAACP chapter who say a civilian review board will improve relations between the community and the police department and provide increased oversight of police. The directive asks staff to research and explore options for what kind of authority would be granted to the board and how appointments would be made. Boddye said the process will involve ample input from community groups, criminal justice stakeholders and the police department before the proposal comes back to the board for discussion. The initiative came less than a week after the fatal police shooting of a 79-year-old Dumfries man on Thursday, Dec. 10. Prince William County police officers shot and killed Kurtis Kay Frevert, 79, outside his home in the Four Seasons community after a family member
reported that Frevert was armed and making concerning statements. It was the third police shooting in Prince William County in four years, and the second fatal police shooting to occur during that time. The five officers involved in the shooting have been placed on paid leave pending the outcome of investigations by police and the Prince William Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office. The impetus behind the proposal is a new law approved by the Virginia General Assembly this fall that allows city councils and county boards of supervisors in Virginia to create civilian review boards beginning July 1. Prince William County acting Police Chief Jarad Phelps said it’s too early to say whether he would support a civilian review board. But he noted that the police department would have a seat at the table as the county moves forward with studying the proposal. “We’ve got a long road ahead of us to get there,” Phelps said. “... We just need to craft what’s right for the community.” Lawson said she wanted to know what authority the civilian review board would be granted in Prince William County and the criteria for serving on the board before signing off on it. Lawson added that the supervisors need to set “parameters in place” before opening the discussion to the public. Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com
Supervisor Margaret Franklin, D-Woodridge, said the development would help revitalize the existing gateway corridor along U.S. 1 and noted that the project is “a catalyst for transit-oriented development” and “represents the first step in realizing the goals of the North Woodbridge small area plan.” “If you are familiar with that area, you know that it can be a bit of an eyesore, but we’re finally going to do something with it,” Franklin said. Prince William County planners have stressed the importance of creating more residential units with higher densities in existing “activity centers” in the county that have easy access to public transit to help cut down on the county’s existing traffic congestion. The Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments has recommended that 75% of all future housing development in the county be in existing activity centers or near public transit. Christina Winn, executive director of the Prince William County department of economic development, said that creating a town center in North Woodbridge would “drive further economic growth, attract new businesses and create new jobs throughout the area.” “We’re already seeing the momentum as more businesses and investors are interested in North Woodbridge and eastern Prince William County because they recognize the area as the next new emerging market due to its strategic location, transportation network, and expansive water views,” Winn said.

SUPERSPREADER, from page 1 The latest projection predicts a Feb. 7 peak that would be 13 times greater than the 7,550 weekly cases Virginia hit during the first wave of the pandemic last summer and nearly three times the current weekly case count of about 34,000. And that’s not even the worst-case scenario, according to the University of Virginia’s Biocomplexity Institute. Under the “less controlled scenario,” meaning without a significant response by state residents to mitigate the spread of the virus, cases could go as high as 138,000 a week, their analysis says. Alternatively, with stricter community adherence to mitigation strategies – such as social distancing, limiting gatherings, wearing masks and frequent hand-washing – the peak could be reduced to about 63,000 new cases a week. Still, that’s almost double the number of cases added this past week. The Rand Corporation report further predicts that the coming year could result in more infections than were counted in 2020. “Nearly 300,000 Virginians have had confirmed cases of COVID-19 and it could be more than 1 million by the end of 2021,” its report stated. UVA notes that during the state’s previous peak in May, testing was not as widely available as it is now. If it were, many more cases likely would have been identified, its report said. Even so, “the current surge in Virginia began early in the fall, and cases exceeded summer peaks by mid-November,” the analysis said. The model takes into consider-
ation the vaccine, which just began to be administered in Virginia last week. But the UVA report notes that deploying and administering millions of vaccine doses is a “massive undertaking,” the effects of which will not be realized for months. “The vaccine will have a limited impact until late spring or summer. In the meantime, cases, hospitalizations, and deaths will continue to rise,” the analysis said. As always, researchers stress the need for community mitigation strategies to flatten the curve into the spring. “The good news is the effect of behavioral and community mitigation strategies, which will have a much larger impact on transmission for the foreseeable future, are enhanced as the vaccine rolls out,” the report said. Other observations include: Virginia’s rate of infection is “very high”: Virginia’s total case levels remain “very high,” which the Rand Corporation defines as more than 20 cases per 100,000 people. Virginia reported a per-capita rate of 44 at the end of last week, which is a 25% increase from the previous week. Hospitalizations continue to “rise rapidly” and “are likely to increase at a similar magnitude to the case rate of more than 30% in the next week or two,” the Rand report says. The state’s test positivity rate, at about 12.7% last week, is more than double the targeted rate of 5% and a signal that testing is not identifying all cases in the state. “At this rate, case count levels are likely to be less reliable,” the Rand report said.

GUEST OPINION
Why the ‘rural crescent’ is still relevant In order to understand the continued relevance of Prince William County’s “rural crescent” as a landuse tool for the benefit of all residents, it is important to understand the premises upon which it was founded. These were: to slow residential development in areas where the supporting infrastructure was not available, to preserve an area with open space for ground-water recharge and water/air quality preservation, and to protect a threatened rural economy. After 25 years, these are still desirable and achievable goals. At the time of its inception, Prince William was considered a “bedroom community” where people who worked closer to Washington could find a less expensive place to live. Property taxes were lower, for instance. The problem this created was that taxes on residential development did not pay for the required services, and therefore the county had trouble keeping up with roads, schools, police, and other services needed to support the residents. This is still true! Unlike Fairfax County, which boasts massive employment centers and revenue-generating areas like Tysons Corner, Prince William has not yet achieved a commercial and business tax base that can offset residential expenses. When houses are built in areas with no existing supportive infrastructure, the required new services drain resources from existing residential areas, which negatively affects all Prince William residents. Another goal of the rural crescent is to protect open space for environmental reasons, one of which is groundwater protection. Pavement and rooftops generate excessive storm water runoff that damages properties through flooding and erosion and eliminates essential recharge areas for groundwater. Public water resources are limited in the county and therefore well water is an important resource. Residents who are not connected to public water lines require groundwater levels that are within reach of their wells. This need has not changed since the rural crescent was put in place. If anything, increasing temperatures make rainfall less predictable with increased possibility of prolonged drought. Simultaneously, individual storms have become more intense, causing unprecedented storm water problems. Mitigating these issues requires public funds that could be used for other purposes. Now is not the time to ease measures that protect the environment. A third goal of the rural crescent is to protect a rural economy by
Liz Cronauer
preserving an area with large lots and lower land values to keep land taxes low. A 10-acre minimum lot size and a restriction on public sewer and water were the primary tools available to the county to realize this goal. Originally it was believed that there were not enough septic system sites in the “agricultural/estate” area to develop a significant number of 10-acre lots. Surprisingly, the state of Virginia approved new septic systems that allow for development of many more 10-acre lots, which have been and still are very marketable. These houses use private well and septic systems (not public), and the density is far lower than in other parts of the county. While this has not preserved a traditional rural economy, it has provided options for farmers who no longer wish to farm. Although some farm operations and other agri-businesses such as wineries are successful, Prince William farmers face the same problems as those faced by small farmers throughout the country, including changing weather patterns and wildly fluctuating prices. Furthermore, they are forever tempted by developers who want to build on less expensive land in the rural area and would offer a better price if only they could access public sewer, water, roads and services. The developers’ sole purpose is to maximize their profits, and their onslaught on the rural crescent has been relentless. Nevertheless, the basic reasons for the rural crescent remain unchanged: We are still trying to achieve a balance between tax revenue and high quality services for county residents; our need to protect groundwater and other resources is greater than ever; and there is still an opportunity to provide, if not a booming farm economy, a place where people have the option to own land and participate in rural activities. We must continue to resist efforts to chip away at the rural crescent or allow cracks and fissures that eventually abolish it to unleash the rampant development that benefits a few and hurts everyone else. The writer has lived in the rural crescent for 36 years, where she and her husband raised two children. She is a landscape architect who recently retired from the Fairfax County Park Authority.

We are always amazed at what your do for us, such great responsibilities are placed upon you. You are such a blessing to our community because of the difficult kind of work you do.

Wittman’s deficit defense spending is short-sighted Rep. Rob Wittman’s win over another hapless Democratic challenger shows we need a Republican to challenge Wittman in a primary to represent the 1st District. When Wittman started representing the 1st District in December 2007, the U.S. national debt stood at just under $10 trillion. In Wittman’s time in Congress, the debt has climbed to $27.3 trillion and rising. Not surprisingly, Wittman has used his place as ranking member on the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Seapower and Projection Forces to further our national debt. Wittman’s work on the committee to further threaten our nation’s financial stability is not surprising. In the last year, as reported by OpenSecrets, Wittman’s campaign donors are a who’s who of defense seapower industries: Huntington Ingalls Industries, Seafarers International Union, Hilldrup Compa-
nies, L3Harris Technologies and Raytheon Technologies. The fact is, his top five campaign donors were all special interest groups who constantly lobby for higher defense spending to line their own pockets. Wittman constantly lists China as a top threat and the reason he constantly adds in spending to bills. What he conveniently does not mention is China is one of the top holders of the U.S. national debt. When we spend more money we don’t have, we pay interest. That interest money goes directly to China, who in turn uses that money to pay for increased defense spending to further deteriorate our national security. Because of Wittman’s short-sighted spending, he is essentially funding enemies and their ability to conduct war against the U.S. ADAM STUMP Stafford

Four Seasons collects more than 400 gifts for Toys for Tots By Andria Post
Contributing Writer
Four Seasons at Historic Virginia continues with the mantra of being a “community of caring” and its many overtures of supporting our great Prince William County. The COVID-19 pandemic did not deter Four Seasons residents from supporting the annual U.S. Marine Corps Reserves Toys for Tots campaign for 2020. For eight consecutive years, the Four Seasons residents have collected 2,959 gifts for the children of Prince William County through Toys for Tots. The community outreach received donations of bicycles, scooters and skateboards, sporting equipment, LEGOs, books for all ages, inter-active board games, puzzles, dolls and plush animals and Barbie dolls too, as well as an assortment of building blocks, matchbox cars and classic Tonka toys. Four jammed-packed SUV deliveries were made with a bounty of 412 gifts during this year’s

County police raise $15,000 in gift cards for local foster youth Staff Reports The holidays will be a little brighter for about 120 foster children in Prince William County this year. Prince William County police officers raised $15,685 in gift cards for foster youths this holiday season after the coronavirus pandemic forced the department to cancel their annual holiday community outreach events. In a normal year, the department hosts events like “Santa Cops,” where police officers take children, youth and young adults in foster care shopping for presents, and “Santa Ride,” when Santa visits county public elementary schools with the motorcycle unit. The department participated in the 2020 Christmas project through the county’s social services department, which provides services to about 120 children, teens and young adults in foster care, some of whom have experienced abuse or neglect and are unable to reside in their own homes. “We thought this was most certainly a worthy case to support during any holiday season, but especially this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said 1st Sgt. Jonathan Perok, spokesman for Prince William County police. The police department’s community engagement section spearheaded the effort.

County allocates $1.4 million to help with unpaid utility bills By Daniel Berti
Times Staff Writer
The Prince William County Service Authority has been approved for $1.4 million in state-allocated CARES Act funds to help county residents and businesses impacted by the pandemic pay their unpaid utility bills, but applicants will only have one month to apply before any remaining funds are returned to the federal government. The money is available immediately for those who need help resolving unpaid utility bills going back as far March 1 and up until Dec. 30 as a result of economic hardship brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Residents eligible to apply for aid include those who: have been laid off work; experienced a reduction in hours; lost child or spousal support; have been unable to work due to contracting the coronavirus; have been unable to work due to high-risk or severe illness; or have had to stay home to take care of their children because of school closures. The Prince William County Service Authority has already taken steps to help residents struggling with their bills since the start of the pandemic, including suspending service disconnects and late fee penalties and offering flexible and extended payment arrangements
tailored to individual circumstances. The number of Prince William County residents who have fallen behind on their utility payments has spiked since the national shutdown caused widespread unemployment in March, according to Prince William County Service Authority spokesman Kip Hanley. As of Nov. 30, Prince William County Service Authority accounts that are more than two months past due totaled $2.1 million compared to just $400,000 at the same time last year, Hanley said in an email. The Prince William Board of County Supervisors approved the last-minute transfer of CARES Act funds to
Prince William Service Authority water tower the Prince William County Service Authority Tuesday at their last board meeting of the year. Neabsco Supervisor Victor Angry said the utility assistance was a “Christmas miracle.” “This is actually a blessing because there are many people that are going to need this,” Angry said.

Gillespie finds a home in pandemic-marred year Former Woodbridge High defensive tackle signs with Louisiana-Monroe By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer
Due to the pandemic, top high school football recruits like James Gillespie could not take campus visits this year, making this the most difficult recruiting period in memory. But the former Woodbridge High defensive tackle found a fit, signing with Louisiana-Monroe (also known as ULM) last week on the first day of the early signing period. “He is the first four-star prospect in the history of ULM to commit and one of the nation’s top defensive tackles,” said former Woodbridge High coach Gary Wortham, who helped Gillespie’s recruiting. “I’m excited to come to Monroe and help build this incoming recruiting class as well as being the highest-rated recruit they’ve had to commit,” Gillespie said. “After having a long talk with my family and coaches, we agreed this was the right approach to finalize my recruitment.” Regarded as Virginia’s No. 39 senior football player by rivals.com, the 6-foot-2, 295-pound Gillespie had numerous offers in front of him back in May, but the landscape changed as college programs struggled with their roster decisions, with many holding spots for transfers or seniors retaining eligibility. “When COVID hit it turned into a chess match with so many things changing,” said Wortham. Wortham said it looked like Gillespie might attend Central Florida for a while, and “still had a ton of of-

Gillespie will play his upcoming senior year at Bishop Ireton (Alexandria), where he’s reunited with Wortham, who is an associate head coach. “He’s doing outstanding academically and taking on the challenge of a traditional Catholic private high school. The curriculum is different, everything’s different,” said Wortham. Gillespie signed in a private room at The Bungalow Alehouse in Woodbridge. “He wanted a Bishop Ireton uniform and helmet on the table” at signing day, Wortham said.
Kentucky’s 41-18 win over South Carolina on Dec. 5 in Lexington saw three former Prince William County football linemen pose for a reunion photo. From left are South Carolina’s Vershon Lee, who attended Freedom (Woodbridge); Kentucky freshman R.J. Adams, who attended Woodbridge; and the Gamecocks’ Jakai Moore, who went to Patriot. The 6-3, 313-pound Lee, 19, is a freshman who graduated early from Freedom in December, 2019 and enrolled at South Carolina in January. The 6-3, 330-pound Adams is a freshman who graduated from Woodbridge High in June, 2020. Moore is the oldest of the three, turning 20 on Dec. 26. Listed at 6-5, 305 pounds, he’s a redshirt freshman who graduated from Patriot in June, 2019. In his second year, he gained some valuable experience as a true freshman at South Carolina in 2019, playing in three games (starting twice) while retaining the year of eligibility.

Richard “Dick” Wayne Brown Richard “Dick” Wayne Brown, loving husband and father, returned to his heavenly home on December 14, 2020 at the age of 77. Richard was born on March 19, 1943 in Fauquier County, Virginia to the late Lynwood Delaney Brown and Henrietta Licklider Brown Sale. Richard graduated from Marshall High School in 1961 and quickly transitioned to a career in industrial sales for the next 39 years. Richard married Patricia Young Brown on June 16, 1962 and had four sons - Jeffrey Garret Brown born in 1964, Eric Wayne Brown born in 1965, Christopher Lane Brown born in 1969, and Jason Hamilton Brown born in 1977. On February 24, 1979, Richard married Roberta Leibold Brown and had three children - David Linwood Brown born in 1980, Jonathan Raymond Brown born in 1981, and Sarah Brown Spillane born in 1990. Richard had a passion for helping others and brought joy and laughter to every person he interacted with. Children were one of the many highlights of Richard’s life; he made significant impacts for many youth as a Boy Scout Leader and Youth Group Leader in the Episcopal Church. Richard was a faithful servant of the Lord and was extremely honored to serve as a Eucharistic Minister, a member of the vestry, a volunteer at the food pantry and as a representative at the Episcopal Church Diocesan Convention. Richard’s love and passion for God dictated his life and interactions with others, which gave him strength and guidance throughout every chapter of his life. Anyone who met Richard will be able to recount his love for all things West Virginia, Ford vehicles, the Washington Redskins, pets, and the mountains. As an avid outdoorsman, Richard led many scouting, camping, and hunting trips through the mountains of West Virginia and Virginia - a place he always called home. When he wasn’t in the mountains, one would often find Richard either at a McDonalds eating his favorite ice cream and hamburgers, watching the clouds and seagulls over the Atlantic ocean, or catching up with a long-time friend from his days of traveling the world. Richard continuously amazed everybody he met with his gift of bringing happiness, joy, and life to any situation. Richard is survived by his sister Barbara Gilbert Fishback, his wife Roberta Brown, his children Eric Brown and wife Susan Brown, David Brown and wife Ashley Brown, Jonathan Brown and wife Jessica Brown, and Sarah Spillane and husband Jacob Spillane, his six grandchildren Erica Brown, Abygayle Brown, Thomas Brown, Carina Brown, Emma Spillane, and Reagan Brown, and his one great granddaughter Rorie Counts. He is preceded in death by his parents Lynwood Brown and Henrietta Brown Sale, his brothers James Delaney Brown and Donald Carson Brown, and his first wife Patricia Brown and their three sons Christopher Brown, Jason Brown, and Jeffrey Brown. A memorial service was held on Saturday, December 19th, 2020 at the International Revival Outreach Center on 150 Leeland Road in Fredericksburg at 1 o’clock pm. In lieu of flowers, the family has asked that donations be made in Richard’s name to the Boy Scouts of America online at https://donations. scouting.org/#/national/ or to the Dementia Society of America by mail to PO Box 600, Doylestown, PA 18901, or online at www. DementiaSociety.org/donate.
