High School’s “ATHLETES” OF THE WEEK

Niblack Funeral Home location.

As a tribute to the two families who had operated funeral homes in Fowlerville for many years, Niblack Funeral Home added Dillingham Liverance Chapel to its name.

Scott recalled that he had been in town about two years when Sonny Erdman and Ron Hanna got him involved in the July 4th celebration. “I served on the committee from 1992 to 2007 and was the chair for several of those years,” he said. “Allen and Liz Hale were part of the group, along with Drew Porsch-Jensen and Julie Woodward, Everett DeGrush, and towards the end of my time on it, Butch and Peg Ogden.

There were other volunteers who served on the committee for short periods of time.

“We’d meet at the ice cream shop at the west end of town after our meetings, which usually lasted only 30 minutes,” he recalled. “Then I’d listen to Sonny and Ron talk about the ‘good old days’. I learned a lot of the history of Fowlerville from those two. Allen was really the heart of it, putting on the fireworks along with the parade, was his pet project.”

Scott noted that, back then, the committee had a budget of around $5,000. “We would wonder how we’d ever generate enough money to put on the fireworks, which were less expensive back then,” he said. “We always managed, thanks to the donations from the public at the park and fairgrounds and during the parade, along with financial help from various businesses and individuals.”

A major change in the local celebration occurred in 2003 when the committee decided to try an evening parade, starting at 7 p.m. “We had been doing it either in the morning or afternoon, and on real hot days the attendance would be down. Also, other neighboring communities were having their parades about the same time. We decided to try an evening parade for one year and see what the response was, thinking the late start might make it easier for people to stay for the fireworks.

It turned out to be a great idea.”

Since selling the business and moving to the farm, Scott said he’s kept busy with fix-up and maintenance projects. “Right now I’m painting the barn,” he said.

Jud Scott

Kim is the more active farmer. In recent years she raised goats and chickens on the Fowlerville property and has continued this effort at their new home. She has also continued her business, Just Kidding Around Goat Soap, using the processed goat milk as the main ingredient and incorporating a variety of scents. This product line is offered at various stores.

In addition, she plans to be active at the Fowlerville Family Fair, helping with the goat shows and judging the public speaking and clown competitions.”

As the current Livingston County Homemaker of the Year, she’ll be back for this year’s Ladies Day event at t he fair, helping to select a new recipient, and will be competing for the title of Michigan Homemaker of the Year.

Scott was an active member of Fowlerville Rotary, and has continued his affiliation since retiring. Kim served as both a 4-H and Girl Scout leader when their daughter, Marjie, was growing up. The couple, in addition, belonged to St. Agnes Catholic Church.

Joe & Marcia Hune announce birth of their son, Alexander

State Sen. Joe Hune and his wife, Marcia Hune, welcomed a baby boy into their family on last Monday evening. Marcia gave birth to Alexander Joseph Hune at Sparrow Hospital on June 22. Alexander weighed in at 8 pounds, 3 ounces and is 21 inches long.

“When we welcomed Alexander into the world we were overwhelmed with joy and happiness,” said Hune, R-Hamburg. “From the first moment I held our new baby boy, I knew there was no better feeling than being a dad. I am truly blessed to have such an amazing, strong wife and a healthy baby.”

Alexander is the first child for Joe and Marcia, and mom and baby are doing well. According to sources, baby Alexander is excited to head home and meet the animals on the family farm

Livingston County United Way invites community participation

The Livingston County United Way invites participation across the community to grow a strong, vibrant place to call home.

Participation comes in many forms, and the Livingston County United Way is more involved than ever before in collaborative efforts that bring lasting change. The recently approved budget designates 55 percent of investments to collective initiatives.

“We are light-years away from the old ‘funding programs’ model that United Ways used to use,” said Donna Gehringer, Community Investments Director. “The Livingston County United Way is at the table with our partners making great things happen for our families, children, seniors and youth.”

Forty-five local residents recently logged 450 hours deliberating on how to invest the dollars entrusted to Livingston County United Way by the community.

“The volunteers take their job very seriously. They really struggle with how to divide up the limited resources,” Gehringer said, adding that this year total requests exceeded available funds by 18%.

“Our decisions are all driven by the vision that our children are ready for all life has to offer, our families are economically stable, and all residents are afforded the opportunities to live their healthiest lives,” Gehringer said.

Some of the new programs that have emerged are: -Eviction Diversion Pilot -Substance Abuse Prevention Pilot -Youth Initiatives -Livingston Promise.

A complete list of the community impact work of the Livingston County United Way, and how you can be involved, is online at http://www.lcunitedway.org/news.html.

My Long Road to Sobriety Arriving in Pontiac, I was soon getting in trouble at school & elsewhere

By Pastor Tom Tarpley My brother and I were now finally reunited with our mother.

Prior to our bus trip to Michigan, we’d been living with our aunt and uncle in Tennessee. However, they had notified our mother that we needed to leave their home. Our activities and behavior were starting to cause problems for them with their white neighbors.

It didn’t take me long after our arrival in Pontiac to find ways of getting into trouble. When the school year started I was in the third grade. Before long I was spending more time in the hallway, sitting outside of my class, than I did in the classroom. I was always being sent to the principal’s office, and occasionally they sent a note home to my mother which always got lost on the way home.

Within a matter of months I had the reputation of being a bad influence and some of the parents even forbade their children to play with me. Because I was a coward and was afraid to play with the kids my age, I usually could be found playing with much younger children or much older ones. The young kids I could bully, while the older kids let me hang out with them because I used to steal money from my mom’s purse and buy candy. Then I’d give the candy to the older kids if they would let me hang with them. I began smoking at the age of nine and, because I was so skinny, I could stick my arm up in the slot on the cigarette vending machines, curl the tip of my double jointed finger into a hook and flip out pack after pack of cigarettes. At the time cigarettes were 22 cents per pack, and there were three pennies taped to the cellophane wrapper which was the change from the quarter you had to put into machine.

About a year after we were in Michigan, my mother met and started dating the man who was to become my stepfather.

We moved into his home and for the first time in my life I felt like I belonged to a family. We lived on a street that had more kids than houses. My new stepfather had the nicest house on the block, and he was also the wealthiest man on the block at that time. My stepfather ran his own business. It was very lucrative, but was also very illegal. Since this is my story and not his that is all I have to say about that subject.

On our side of the street alone, there were more the 30 kids in four houses. The houses were three-story apartment buildings and one four-family flat. Each individual family had eight to twelve children and there were at least three families in every house except ours.

Naturally, being the new kids on the block and there only being the two of us, some of the other kids tried to bully us and push us around. My brother earned his place in the community early. One late afternoon as we were walking home from the movies, one of the kids on the block came running by and splashed water on my brother’s pants. Carl, my brother, yelled an obscenity at him. The boy stopped, turned around, came back, and got right up in his face. Carl didn’t flinch, standing his ground, and the next thing I knew they were rolling on the ground and punching each other.

The guy realized that he was not going to be able to get the best of Carl so he broke free, stood up and said, “I’m going to

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING HANDY TOWNSHIP BOARD OF TRUSTEES 2015-2016 PROPOSED BUDGET JUNE 30, 2015 The Handy Township Board of Trustees will hold a public hearing on the proposed General Fund Budget for the July 1, 2015 - June 30, 2016 fiscal year on Tuesday, June 30, 2015, at 5:30 p.m., in the Handy Township Board Room located at 137 N.

get my brother, he’ll take care of you.”.

“Go get him, I’m not stopping you,” Carl replied.

The boy ran into his house, and we could see through the large picture window. There were a lot of boys and men of all ages walking around inside. We decided that we had better move on before he came back, and we got our butts kicked.

So we took off running, which by the way I was really good at because I was always running from somebody who wanted to pummel my head in the ground. After that, word got around that the new kid was no pushover, and Carl didn’t have any problems fitting in with the other boys his age.

Up until the first Thanksgiving in our new home, drinking had never entered my mind. But after we finished the turkey dinner my stepfather brought out a bottle of Seagram’s VO. He poured some into all of our glasses of eggnog as we were about to have dessert. (Bad move Dad!) The drink felt good, giving me a warm and fuzzy feeling. It had been almost three years since I had had any alcohol. Now all I could think about was how to get more.

It didn’t take long for me to figure out that he kept the bottle stashed in the back of his closet. Not only did he have the one bottle, he kept several of them; most of which someone have given him as a gift for some favor he did for them. My brother and I began sneaking a drink every time we got the opportunity. We thought we were clever. Each time we took some out, we would replace the booze with water, figuring my dad wouldn’t realize we had been taking it. Boy were we stupid!

Next week: Drinking becomes a way of life.

Michigan Senate Report

By Joe Hune, 22nd District Celebrating & Respecting the Red, White and Blue

Every year on Independence Day we celebrate the birth of our nation with parades, barbecues, festivals and, of course, fireworks. I hope everyone is able to take part in these great traditions by catching a local parade and fireworks show this holiday weekend.

The Fowlerville celebration starts at 7 p.m. with a parade down Main Street, followed by a fireworks show after 10 p.m..

If you also plan on attending the Fowlerville festivities, the two best places to watch the fireworks are at the Fowlerville Fairgrounds or at Centennial Park.

When celebrating the Fourth, you will likely see two of our nation’s great symbols prominently featured. Our nation’s flag and national anthem are respected around the world as ideal symbols of freedom and liberty. As we celebrate our county, we should also show reverence to these symbols that embody it.

For instance, if you attend a parade this Independence Day, you will notice that when the flag is carried, it is always on the right of the marcher, and if other flags are being carried, the U.S. flag is always centered. Though it is not always practiced, all citizens should face the flag and salute when it passes in a procession or is hoisted or lowered.

Another honored tradition during Fourth of July events is the singing of the national anthem. Many of us know that when the national anthem is being performed, citizens should stand at attention, salute the flag on the first note and hold their salute until the final note is played. What you might not know is that if the flag is not present or visible during the anthem it is best to salute in the direction of the music.

We may not think about it often, but flag and national anthem etiquette is something we should always practice.

Following proper etiquette is not only a sign of a respect, but it is an act of thanks for those who have fought to preserve our freedoms.

I look forward to seeing you in Fowlerville for the parade and fireworks show. It is a great opportunity to celebrate our nation’s founding and to honor the brave men and women who serve.

Please feel free to contact my office if you would like to learn more about Independence Day celebrations happening in our community. My staff will be happy to assist you, and they can be contacted by email at SenJHune@senate. michigan.gov, or you can call toll-free at 855-JOE-HUNE. Have a safe and fantastic holiday. God bless America! *** Sen. Joe Hune is chair of the Senate Agriculture and Insurance committees. He represents the 22nd state Senate District, which includes all of Livingston County and parts of Washtenaw County.

The Making of Doctors

By Tom Higby, M.D. Let’s extend these medical reminiscences further back into the past—student days at U of M, my junior summer.

During a lecture on gynecology (at that time usually pronounced with a “g” as in Virginia), Professor Norman F. Miller, known to us students as the Bald Eagle, talked of openings in his department for research fellowships in the area of human reproduction sponsored by The Josiah Macy Foundation. Realizing that my “vacation periods” now had to be spent in approved educational pursuits, I went to his office for a talk. He said that such positions were usually filled by students aiming for the ob.-gyn. specialty, but he also realized that many junior students hadn’t yet fixed on a future career, and that such an experience might help me to make such a choice. He accepted me.

“Celebrating over 40 Years of Growing Beautiful Berries!”

3537 Morrice Rd. Webberville 48892

On the first day I found myself one of about eight young men (not many women in my class) assembled in the basement gyn.-endocrinology laboratory of the (old) women’s hospital, meeting the lab director, Dr. Gardner Riley, a phD. zoologist listed as professor of gynecology. I was assigned with a partner, Dan Habel, a year behind me, to work under Pete Ludovici, a cytologist and tissue culture expert.

One of Dan’s and my main jobs was the removal of ovaries from young virginal female guinea-pigs. The objective was to observe the effects of heavy doses of exogenous estrogen without the less predictable endogenous secretion. Would those doses cause uterine tumors? Our time in the project did not last long enough for us to see the outcome of our work.

For anesthesia the guinea-pig was dropped into a can with an ether soaked cotton ball. Watching closely, once the pig was sleeping but still breathing well it was removed from the can. We quickly shaved the patient, and small incisions made high on the flank; the ovaries located, clamped off and removed; one skin clip placed on each side, then it was put back into its cage. I don’t remember any complications or complaints from them.

Our boss, Pete, had been making photomicrographs of his tissue culture work, and had set up a very high quality photo dark-room (no digital stuff in those days!), putting Dan and me to work developing and printing his photos. That darkroom experience led me into a life-time hobby. Pete had no objection to our using the dark-room for our personal photos, and I was able to print one of my most treasured photos, a “pin-up” type shot of my bride.

Dan and I enjoyed our time in the lab—we were doing surgery (!) while most of the other Macy students were at desks doing statistical work, boring from our viewpoint, but very important experience for a future career in academic medicine. One of those, Edwin Peterson, stayed on to become a professor in the department.

Guinea-pigs have never been highly regarded as food animals by us Nord-Americanos, but are raised for food in many South-American countries. Our lab purchased the pigs in quantity, stipulating virginal females—after all, it was a gyn. lab. Inevitably an occasional buck pig would sneak into a batch, and had to be quickly segregated lest he do what males like to do. Thus there had accumulated a bunch of large well fed bucks for which the lab had no use. With the boss’s permission Dan and I slaughtered them to take home for the table. Roasted, they were very tasty, if a bit greasy, much like pork, probably why they are called pigs. I highly recommend guinea-pig for the table.

All in all, it was a good enjoyable summer, and a valuable experience. Though it didn’t lead to a gyn. career for either me or Dan (who went into the ear, nose, and throat specialty), positions in the gyn. residency program were probably open to us. I couldn’t bring myself to give up all of the other intriguing areas of medical work, but gynecology (soft g) was always an important interest.

Fowlerville News & Views – Sunday, June 28, 2015 – Page 15

By Cheryl Poch The library just purchased over 10 boxes of brand new books for all ages! Karin and Tally are processing them in rapid speed to get them on our library shelves. In fact, in this week’s article I will be telling you about four of our new books. 97 Ways to Make a Dog Smile, 97 Ways to Make a Cat Like You, National Geographic Weird, but True – 300 outrageous facts from history and National Geographic kids book Myths Busted 2.

Did you know that spider webs were once used as bandages?

In Weird but True there are over 300 outrageous facts from history. Here are a few more. Tomatoes were considered poisonous until the 1800s. People believed that the bumps on people’s skulls revealed their true personalities. Well, I have one more bump to my head from last Saturday’s fun time at the bowling alley. Apparently, the bowling balls are now kept under round tables where you can eat or drink. Trying to find a bowling ball under a table without bumping your head can be quite a challenge. Londoners once believed that COFFEE could cure sore eyes. Wow, I must have excellent vision – how come I still have to wear glasses?

Ok, let’s move on to 97 Ways to Make a Dog Smile.

Number 57-Try speaking common words or commands in a different language, but use the same vocal inflection as usual.

Your dog may actually understand what you mean. Number 96-Patty-Cake. When the dog is lying down, put one of your hands on top of his paws. He will probably pull it away and may put his paw on top of your hand. Then you pull out your hand and put it on top of his paw, and so on.

Now from 97 Ways to Make a Cat Like You. Number 25-Meowsic... Learn to recognize your cat’s different calls.

Pay attention to the inflections of his meows-one may mean “Feed Me; still another may mean, “I’m here.” Oh, so now I know what that ‘siren’ sound was coming from my front porch – the cat wanted in!

Last but not least Myths Busted 2. Myth--You should smear burns with butter. Scientists today have shown that running cool water for 20 minutes over a burn is the best

treatment! Myth--A buttered piece of toast always lands face down on the buttered side. Busted--How a buttered piece of toast will land has nothing to do with the butter! In 2012, a piece of toast left over from Prince Charles breakfast the day he married Lady Diana Spencer-July 29, 1981-was auctioned off for $360.

Fascinating facts and trivia. Till next week: “Life is a beautiful journey for all those who are willing to learn how to live and love.”

Join us at the 40th Annual Fowlerville July 4th!

Senior Spotlight-- Haylie Moran

By Grace Gardziella Whether it was in academics or sports, Haylie Moran left her mark on Webberville High School. Moran attended Webberville Schools since kindergarten, a total of thirteen years. Moran’s parents are Jim and Elaine Moran. Her brother, Andrew, graduated from Webberville High School in 2010, and her other brother, Brian, graduated from Fowlerville High School in 2013.

“Attending Webberville has been a great experience for me because I have had the opportunities to participate in numerous sports and clubs that have helped shape me to become a better person,” said Moran. Through those activities, Moran gained many friendships.

“My favorite thing about Haylie is how we always have a good laugh,” said fellow senior Vivian Gaffney. “She knows how to cheer me up when I am down, and she’s always there for me when I need a friend.”

Moran advises the underclassmen to “Be yourself and never be afraid to try something new – you may surprise yourself!”

She herself wasn’t afraid to try new things. Moran played volleyball for two years, softball for four years, and tried golf her senior year. As well as excelling in sports, Moran also excelled in the classroom.

“Haylie is a kind-hearted, mature student who is very motivated for success. I appreciate her subtle sense of humor and willingness to push herself academically,” said English teacher Ms. Colleen Scott-Keiser. With a GPA of 3.4, Haylie was a strong, dedicated student.

On top of excelling in academics and sports, Moran was a part of many extracurricular activities. She was Secretary of Student Council for two years, participated in Musical Theatre for two years, and joined journalism and Project ROOTS (Reaching Out for Other Teens’ Safety) for one year.

“My favorite high school memories would be attending sporting events with friends, and playing sports. Also, the friendships I’ve gained,” said Moran. Although Moran is sad to have left, she is excited for a future with new opportunities and experiences.

“Overall, I am excited for the new experiences ahead of me,” said Moran. Moran plans on attending Grand Valley State University next fall. While she is undecided with what she wants to major in, she does have an interest in nursing.

Webberville Library Report

By Head Librarian Peg Mawby What is a hero? There are a number of definitions at dictionary.reference.com, one of which is “the bread or roll used in making a hero sandwich.”

If you are thinking in terms of classical mythology rather than lunch, then a hero could be an immortal being or a warrior-chieftain of special ability. A hero can also be a person who has performed a heroic act and is regarded by others as a model or ideal. As kids at our first summer storytime early in June discovered, a hero doesn’t have to be Thor or Batman, it can be a firefighter who lives right here in Webberville.

This year’s theme for Capital Area District Libraries’ Summer Reading program is “Every Hero Has a Story.” We will be having loads of fun at the Webberville branch with stories and events all centered on different types of heroes.

Don’t miss out on the fun! Come in during our open hours to sign up. We will have drawings and prizes for all ages!

That’s right, the Adult program has returned. Now you can show your kids that you are a reader also. Read together, collect prizes together, and attend fun events together.

School-aged kids should have come home with a listing of all the summer events at CADL Webberville. However, the fun of summer reading is spread all across Ingham County at all thirteen CADL locations. When you stop in to register, ask us about the system-wide Summer Reading event guide, or check it out at cadl.org/summer. You will be amazed at all the choices of fun events available to you and your family this summer!

Capital Area District Libraries’ Webberville branch is located at 115 S. Main Street in Webberville. For information about our hours, services or events, call 517-521-3643 or visit cadl.org.

All CADL branches will be closed on Saturday, July 4 and Sunday, July 5.

Fowlerville Schools upcoming budget similar to last year

By Steve Horton If you’re piloting a ship at sea, smooth predictable waters are obviously preferable to those that are choppy and uncertain.

That’s an apt metaphor for what lies ahead next year for the Fowlerville Community Schools as far as finances and goals.

“The coming year is pretty much a continuation of what was going on this past year,” said Superintendent Wayne Roedel.

“I don’t want to call it status quo, but rather a stability year.”

At a recent budget hearing, the board of education heard a wrap up of the 2014-15 budget, followed by a presentation of the 2015-16 budget. “In recapping 2014-15, we are projecting a surplus of $53,907,” said Rodel. “Out of a budget of just over $24 million, that’s essentially a balanced budget.”

The current fiscal year, which ends on June 30, has revenues of $24,807,941 and expenses of $24,754,034. A year ago, the proposed budget showed a $250,000 shortfall and would have required the board to dip into its fund balance. Instead of losing around a quarter million dollars, the balance being carried over to the new fiscal year starting July 1st is just under $1.8 million.

“Our fund balance right now is seven percent of the total budget,” noted Roedel. “The auditors like it to be between 10 to 15 percent. It is the amount of money we’d use for 14 days worth of operations.”

The main reason the district ended up spending less money than anticipated is due to the use of long-term substitutes in the place of three fulltime teachers and two fulltime maintenance workers who were out for all or part of the school year for various reasons. “The amount of money we spend for a substitute is considerably less than what it costs for a regular staff member,” said Rodel.

Another factor for the reduced expenses, the superintendent added, “is our conservative budget approach. We don’t spend every line item down to zero if we don’t need to.”

For the upcoming 2015-16 year, revenues are projected at $24,877,111 and expenses are put at $24,787,134, the amounts almost identical of those for the current fiscal year.

The Student Foundation Grant from the state is increasing by $140 per student, but the $50 per student awarded to districts for meeting ‘best practices’ criteria is being eliminated, resulting in a net gain of $90. While that is a gain, the district is budgeting for a loss of 30 students. “That student enrollment decline mirrors an overall decline in student numbers for the State of Michigan and in Livingston County,” said Roedel. He added that the loss of 30 students across the 13 grades does not adversely impact any specific grade or the staffing. “The good news for us is that we graduated around 200 students and have around 200 youngsters enrolling in kindergarten,” he said.

“We had several teachers and other longtime staff members retire this year, so the savings in wages (above what their replacements will receive) will offset some of the typical increases we get,” Roedel said. “Our health insurance increased by 2.3 percent.

The new budget also reflects a one-time disbursement by LESA, the intermediate district, of $150,000 for the district’s special education programs.

The district has also been awarded a $400,000 state-level grant to implement the Chrome Book Interchange. This will involve upgrading the school’s hardware, allowing each student access to interactive learning programs while at school. The money will also be used to train teachers on how to use the technology to better engage the students.

An unknown factor in the upcoming budget is the actual cost of the new teachers’ contract that the board is presently

negotiating with the Fowlerville Education Association. “The current contract expires on June 30,” said Roedel. “As far as the talks go, we’re making good progress.”

At the high-school level, the auto technology program is being eliminated due to the administration’s inability to find a qualified teacher at the allowed contractual rate of pay. The district has been offering this program as part of the Livingston Applied Technology Education Consortium (LATEC) with around 30 juniors and seniors from Fowlerville participating last school year. Another 25 students from Howell High School also took the class. Local students, if they have transportation, can still take the automotive technology classes available at Hartland, Brighton, and Pinckney this upcoming year. They can also take other LATEC classes offered at these county schools. Although the auto class is being eliminated, Fowlerville will continue to offer business classes and family consumer science as its contribution to the LATEC Program.

In addition to this option, the district has enhanced its offerings in career-oriented or vocational education by entering into an agreement with the Capital Area Career Center, located near Mason. Starting in September, participating students will be bused to either a morning or afternoon class.

“The automotive class is offered at the Career Center, but so are other career-oriented and courses,” said Roedel.

“These include health occupations, welding, culinary arts, and graphic design as well as others. Approximately 30 of our high school juniors and seniors have signed up.”

The main goal of the district is improving academic performance. Last school year the district altered its scheduling at the elementary to focus on reading-writing (English Language Arts) and math. Students have 90-minute blocks with their main classroom teacher in each of those subject areas, followed by a 30-minute intervention session.

Students are placed in a specific intervention session based on their need and ability.

In addition, five different subjects are taught as specials— science, social studies, physical education, technology and music—once a week for an hour. Each of those specials has its own teacher who focuses on that subject.

Roedel said the goal is “to meet each student at their ability level,” adding that reading, writing, and math skills are vital ones that each student needs to master.

He said the administration and board was pleased with the progess in the first year and will be working to further enhance the program next year. “We don’t have any major changes planned,” Roedel added. “That occurred last year with this scheduling change. Now we want to work at getting better.”

Michigan House Report

By Dr. Hank Vaupel 47nd District The first six months of the legislative term have flown by quickly. The House has been very busy working on legislation which includes passing a new solution for Michigan’s roads which awaits attention in the Senate as well as passing a balanced budget ahead of schedule for the fifth year in a row.

At the beginning of the term House Republicans unveiled an Action Plan that is serving as our guide over the next two years. The plan focuses on job and economic growth; creating bright futures for Michigan students; improving government accountability while eliminating obstacles; and getting the state moving and powering its future. It is an ambitious plan but I am happy to say that six months in we have already completed 36 percent of the items and a total of 64 percent of the items have been introduced.

Bills reforming Michigan’s civil asset forfeiture procedures were passed with overwhelming bipartisan support. They are now in the Senate Judiciary committee waiting for consideration. The current civil asset forfeiture laws allow police to take property from citizens if they suspect a crime was committed, even when there is not enough evidence to charge them. The package will still allow law enforcement the ability to go after criminals, but now law-abiding citizens can have peace of mind knowing that they won’t be unfairly burdened or punished. The bills create more transparency by requiring reports from law enforcement agencies regarding forfeitures. Also included in the package are changes to the evidentiary standard for both drug and public nuisance forfeitures.

Another important piece of legislation that is working its way through the legislative process is STEM diploma endorsements. STEM certification highlights the skills needed in today’s economy. It gets students interested in engineering,

“The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived” (In Fowlerville)

He was a man who wore many different hats. Not one of them bought, all of them earned.

If you ring his doorbell on Detroit Street, he will not answer. You’ll have to find someone else to play tunk.

You won’t see him outside the little post office on Second Street chatting with the town locals, early in the morning.

He’s not at the V.F.W. standing tall & lean with his hand over his heart reciting the Pledge of Allegiance or eating a spaghetti dinner.

Nor on Highlander Way swinging his gavel in that long black robe. You can’t call him to marry ya or bury ya.

Nope, not at The Goat sippin’ on a Diet Pepsi and telling jokes with Larry.

Had no time for idle minded gossip. “It’s a free country!” He would say “and we’ll lay down our lives to keep it that way.”

Sadly your children can no longer march behind him in the Fourth of July parade. As he carries our American Flag, strong and proud, in the lead, with all the other veterans.

Dedicated his life to family, community & country.

A steadfast and loyal friend to the end!

The last time I saw him, he was sitting in his living room watching television with his life long sweetheart.

Told me he was going to pick up a new hat.

Then shortly after, he just “disappeared” off the face of the earth.

I called the hat maker to ask if he had ever shown up.

“Oh yes”, he said “and he’s still here wearing a grin from ear to ear.”

“How’s the hat?” I asked.

Well... It’s perfectly round and brilliantly bright.

Hovers just about an inch or so over his head.

“Could I speak to him?” I questioned.

“Sorry Miss” the hat maker exclaimed. “Sonny has just flown away.”

“Wait... He just swooped back down to say tell everyone to have a good day!”

In loving memory of my dead friend...

“Mr. Sonny Endman.”

Ms. Debra Ann Gladish

tech-based jobs and skilled trades at a young age so that they are ready to dive head-first into the growing job pool upon the completion of their education. A four-year degree path is not for everyone so it is critical that we have options in place that will ensure all students have the opportunity to find employment in a field of their interest.

Finally, Gov. Snyder recently signed into law a package of bills that will continue the unique public-private partnership child-placement system in our state, while preserving current administrative practice and protecting religious liberties.

Michigan has an 80-percent adoption placement rate which is a direct result of a public-private partnership between adoption agencies and the Department of Human Services.

These bills ensure that people in Michigan have the ability to adopt and that no agency will have to close their doors due to their beliefs.

I am proud of the work we have done and look forward to continuing this work in the next six months. You can read our updated Action Plan status report and the entire 2015-16 Action Plan at www. gophouse.org.

Village of Webberville 7TH Annual Community Picnic June 2015

The Village of Webberville Strategic Planning Committee, Downtown Development Authority and Village Council would like to say a big THANK YOU to all of the businesses and people who volunteered their time or provided services to the event. The picnic was held from 5:30 – 8p.m. on Friday, June 12, 2015 at the Village of Webberville Hall and on South Main Street in front of the hall.

The attendance was great and the event gave people a chance to enjoy a hamburger or hot dog and socialize with others in the community. The children enjoyed being able to explore the fire trucks, a semi, a loader and dump truck, a police car, SRTS vehicle and the seat belt convincer.

There was a dunk tank and the Library sponsored a Circus Among Us Demonstration. The Webberville United Methodist Church held kids games and there were a few vendors who decided the weather was not going to be a factor. The WDDA also presented Jim Ackerman from K & J Service the 2015 Business Recognition Award.

Again the Village of Webberville Strategic Planning Committee, the Village Council and the Village Downtown Development Authority would like to say thank you to everyone who participated in the 7th Annual Community Picnic and remind you to start looking for information on the 8h Annual Community Picnic in early 2016. (The event is slated to be held the 2nd Friday of June). Look for information on community events on the village web page at www.villageofwebberville.com, the village facebook page, the News & Views and the village newsletters. The Strategic Planning Committee meets one Wednesday a month at 5:30p.m. and welcomes any Special Interest Group along with the public to join us.

Local 4-Hers & FFA students take part in Milk Marketing Tour

Members and adult leaders of 4-H clubs and FFA chapters from several Michigan counties gathered at Michigan Milk Producers Association (MMPA) headquarters in Novi, June 17-18 for the 78th Annual 4-H/MMPA Milk Marketing Tour.

The two-day conference, co-sponsored by MMPA and Michigan State University Extension, is the longest running 4-H tour in existence with over 4,000 students

MMPA is a member owned and operated dairy cooperative serving approximately 2,000 dairy farm families throughout Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana.

“Youth development and education is a key strategic priority for MMPA and the dairy industry,” Joe Diglio, MMPA general manager, said. “As older generations of dairy farmers, employees, service providers and industry leaders shift off of their operations and out of their respective positions, we want to prepare the next generation for a successful transition.”
