Services for Officer Jamie Buenting

On Tuesday, Sept. 17, services were held at South Central Calhoun High School in Rockwell City for Rockwell City Police Officer Jamie Buenting, who was fatally shot in the line of duty on Sept. 13.

Family, friends, colleagues, area law enforcement officers and emergency service personnel were joined by hundreds of law enforcement officers from throughout Iowa at the memorial service. The funeral procession wound its way around the Rockwell City area ahead of a procession of law enforcement vehicles that stretched out several miles. More photos are inside. (Graphic-Advocate photo

Lohrville building issue To go to SCC board

By Ken Ross Graphic-Advocate Editor The Lohrville building issue remained unresolved following the latest round of school board meetings on Sept. 16 in Lake City and Sept. 18 in Lohrville.

The Southern Cal School Board discussed the disposition of the former school building during the monthly joint meeting of the S. Cal and Rockwell City/Lytton school boards in Lake City and during a special session of the S. Cal board in Lohrville before deciding that the financial issues involved must be determined by the South Central Calhoun School Board. This special SCC session was set for Sept. 24.

Ryan Peterson, president of Impact7G based in Johnston, Iowa, presented a report on the building and its possible demolition at the Sept. 16 meeting. Oral comments and a question and answer session accompanied a written report with graphs and charts. The report was prepared after on-site inspection and lab testing of over 300 material samples from the building.

The city of Lohrville commissioned the study. A grant will reimburse the cost but only if the city takes possession of the property within six months of the study.

Lohrville officials have explained that the city does not want to take possession of the property if that means the city assumes the responsibility of demolishing the building that was closed by the school district at the conclusion of the 2011/12 school year.

The city would consider a cooperative arrangement with the school district in which the school district pays for whatever demolition costs the city could not recover through grants, recycling and sale of the lot.

Two known grant possibilities were described at the meeting. One is a grant for $15,000 and the other is for $75,000. Neither would be available to the school district but would be available for another entity that has purchased or is in the process of purchasing the building.

High school has false fire alarms

By Ken Ross Graphic-Advocate Editor False fire alarms because of sensor error at South Central Calhoun High School in Lake City is a problem that is getting worse, Lake City Fire Chief Mel Alcox informed a joint meeting of the Southern Cal and Rockwell City/Lytton school boards on Sept. 16.

He noted that there have been 10 false alarms this year (calendar year).

If the alarm happens in the middle of the night, fire personnel have sleep disrupted. The frequency of alarms during the school day are causing students and staff not to take alarms seriously.

Alcox said that the city might start imposing a fine on false alarms

that get progressively higher as the number of alarms increases during the year.

Supt. Jeff Kruse added that the problem is also frustrating for the school staff.

The matter will be discussed further at the October meeting. *** During the organizational meetings of the S. Cal and RCL boards, Ann Gemberling was sworn in as a new S. Cal board member and Jo Grodahl was sworn in as a new RCL board member.

The president and vice president remains the same for both boards following election of officers.

County Supervisors name Maintenance Superintendent

By Ken Ross Graphic-Advocate The Calhoun County Board of Supervisors, acting on the recommendation of Secondary Roads Supervisor Steve Goins voted on Sept. 17 to offer the Maintenance Superintendent position to William (B.J) Musselman who will also continue his position as maintenance shop foremen.

Goins is retiring in the spring.

His duties are being somewhat shuffled around, so Musselman’s position will not be exactly the

same as Goins but Musselman will have many of the same duties that Goins has now.

Four applicants for the position were selected for interviews by a committee consisting of Goins, County Engineer Ron Haden and County Supervisor Scott Jacobs.

Haden said two of the applicants, both from within the department, were particularly strong candidates in the opinion of all three of the interviewers. Since Goins has worked directly with the applicants, the other two interviewers deferred to Goins’ recommendation.

Troxel Hall honors Lake City native A state of the art science building on the Iowa State University campus, Troxel Hall, was dedicated on Aug. 30.

The building is named in honor of Douglas Troxel, a computer science pioneer and philanthropist who is a 1963 graduate of Lake City High School and a 1967 graduate of ISU. Troxel, through his Change Happens Foundation, is a major contributor for the new ISU building.

Troxel Hall includes a 400seat auditorium and classrooms specifically designed for teaching science.

The building incorporates the latest innovations in architectural sustainability to reduce its carbon footprint.

Troxel’s biography on the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics website states, in part, “Douglas Donald Troxel was raised on a farm near Lake City, Iowa. Kindergarten through third grade were at a oneroom country school with one other in the class. He attended Iowa State University with a major in mathematics and minor in physics.

In 1966, as a senior, he crossed over to the college of Engineering to take

Among those present at the recent dedication of Troxel Hall on the Iowa State University campus in Ames were fellow Lake City High School classmates of Doug Troxel (class of ’63).

“His first job was Programmer/ Analyst at Consumer’s Power Company in Jackson, Mich., where

he learned COBOL, Assembler and the newly emerging IBM product called C.I.C.S. In 1973, he went to Detroit Edison as a contract programmer. In 1975, he packed up his family and moved to San Francisco.

“After various c o n t r a c t programming stints, he formed SERENA Consulting in 1980 where he continued writing a product called COMPAREX for the mainframe world. It quickly became an industry standard and financed

the company growth…

“He took the company. now renamed SERENA Software public, on the Nasdaq in 1999 as SRNA. It was and still is the leader in the I.T. Change Governance niche competing against IBM, Computer Associates and Compuware.”

In 2001, Troxel established the Change Happens Foundation.

According to the foundation’s website, “The mission of the Change Happens Foundation is to act as a meaningful catalyst towards positive change. We are a private, familybased organization committed to helping highly motivated groups with pioneering programs and forward-thinking projects.”

Ross Lohrville situation makes maneuvering Rambles

Empty Nest By Curt Swarm

Fall Tractor Ride

As you may have read in one of my previous columns, I drove a tractor in my first organized tractor ride this year—the WHO Radio Great Tractor Ride—and had a ball. I was fortunate enough to be provided with a tractor with a double seat so that Mary, who had never been on a tractor (Can you believe it--a small-town Iowa girl?) could accompany me. My appetite whetted, I was hankering for another ride. The problem, of course, is that I don’t own a tractor. So, I did what any red-blooded American male would do—I pleaded and begged until a group let me join their ride and, here’s the best part—furnish me with a tractor—one with a buddy seat so that Mary could go along.

Yep. The Big Creek Tractor Association, Inc. in Mt. Pleasant is having its fall tractor ride on Saturday, September 21. It will leave from the Old Tractor Headquarters at the Old Thresher’s grounds in Mt. Pleasant at 8:30 a.m., head for Wayland for a snack, then go through Brighton to Polishville for a stuff-yourself-’til-you-hurt farm lunch. From there it will travel to Lockridge for an afternoon break, then back to Mt. Pleasant. All-inall, it should be a grand ride on a beautiful fall day. Rain date will be September 28, if necessary.

And it’s even for a good cause.

Proceeds will go to the local youth trapshooting club. In years past, proceeds have gone to H2O (Help to Others), Dollars for Scholars, John Hays Water Purification, and Drive-a-Tractor. Drive a Tractor is a program started by the late Dave Timmerman, whereby kids (or adults) who have never driven a tractor, or want to drive one, are allowed to do so at Old Thresher’s.

The purpose of the Big Creek Tractor Association is to organize tractor rides, preserve history with exhibits and educational material, renew memories of vintage tractors, create enthusiasm for tractors, and

Curt & Mary on WHO Great Tractor Ride. provide an opportunity for fellowship with other tractor cronies, i.e., have a tire kick’n, engine inspect’n good time. If it sounds like a hoot, I can assure you, it is!

The Big Creek Tractor Association, Inc. was organized in 2007. It currently has 65 members.

Two of the founding members, Dave Timmerman and Mark Fitzpatrick, have since passed away. Memorial rides have been held in their honor on Memorial Day. Last year, the route went by Mark Fitzpatrick’s home in rural New London. Close to 50 family members were out on the lawn to wave as “Grandpa’s parade” passed by. Also on the lawn were some of “Grandpa’s toys,”--restored tractors and a custom pick-up. The comment was heard, “Grandpa was always such a ‘get’r done’ type of guy.”

The route also went by the New London nursing home, which had been notified of the tractor ride.

Many of the residents were out front watching. As the unit towing the porta-potty passed, an elderly

Representatives of the Southern Cal School District and of the City of Lohrville have been maneuvering to minimize the negative impact to their respective entities caused by a building that is clearly more of a liability than an asset.

Demolition of the large building that served as a school until the end of the 2011/12 school year is estimated to cost $345,800, with the actual cost not known until bids are submitted. The cost could be substantially different than the estimate.

Now the South Central Calhoun School District is being drawn into the maneuvering because that district inherits all assets and liabilities of the S. Cal and Rockwell City/Lytton districts when they merge on July 1, 2014.

The seven members of the SCC board have been appointed by and from the 10 total members of the S. Cal and RCL boards. A special meeting of the SCC board has been scheduled for Sept. 24 to discuss the disposition of the building in Lohrville. As of this writing, that meeting has not taken place.

Since two bids for the building were opened during the joint board meeting in May, there have been a series of S. Cal board discussions on the matter, mostly at the regular monthly joint sessions with the RCL board. The most recent discussion, as of this writing, occurred at a special S. Cal board meeting on Sept. 18 in Lohrville.

One of the bids submitted in May was for $6,000 from Fort Dodge Youth Development, which had plans to build a youth center, and the other bid was $11,100 from George Duncan of Missouri who buys and resells property.

Questions were raised about the reliability of each bidder, more specifically in the case of Duncan about the reliability of whatever unknown buyer might end up with the property. The FDYD bid is no longer active but Duncan has made a series of extensions on his bid with the last one being an extension for 30 days made at the Sept. 18 meeting.

If the property is simply sold, resold, stripped of salvageable material and then abandoned, as seemed likely to many Lohrville citizens, the property does not revert back to being a responsibility of the school district but becomes a burden to the city of Lohrville.

Let’s go off on a bit of a tangent here regarding an issue that has the potential to fester over time.

The decision to sell lockers and some other fixtures by auction was probably a mistake and was carried out poorly. The absence of the fixtures undermined the buildings potential usefulness and even more damage was done by unauthorized removal of items that were not

actually sold. The people taking them apparently figured, “They’re getting rid of it anyway so why not take what I can?”

I suspect that the board and the administration regret how that was handled, but that being said, it seems doubtful that a reliable bidder with specific plans for using the building would have stepped forward anyway.

We’ll never know for sure but we need to move on from that issue.

Much had been made of the fact that Duncan was difficult to get in touch with and had not appeared in person to explain his plans. For the first time, he appeared locally at the Sept.

18 meeting but he apparently did not reassure the people of Lohrville who attended that meeting.

Duncan made no promises as to the disposition of the building after he sold it. He described some of the enterprises that used his buildings, being non-specific about locations except for a reference to Fairmont, Minn., where a mini-mall was created. Fairmont is a town just off of Interstate 90 with a population of over 10,000.

Duncan spent considerable time talking about a potential demolition scenario in which a private buyer purchases the building, enters into a contract to demolish the building with whatever political entity is responsible for demolishing the building, hires employees at a much lower wage than the public entity could hire them because of legal requirements regarding wages of workers on government projects and then passes the savings onto the public entity minus a commission for the private party’s efforts.

Duncan claimed that he was involved in such a project in Missouri. In Iowa, the only such wage requirement for government projects is the Davis-Bacon Act, which applies only to federal projects. The Davis-Bacon Act would not apply to a demolition project undertaken by either the school district or the city of Lohrville.

There are potential grants for the city to demolish the building if the city owned the property but not if the property remained school district property. The two grants found so far, and probably the only grants that will ever be found for such a situation, total $90,000 ($75,000 and $15,000). They are competitive grants with a high probability of failure if certain conditions are not met but with no guarantee of success in any case.

A narrow window for applying for the grants for the next year is approaching. Applying would likely require the district to sell or commit to sale before the grant application is made. Consideration for either grant would likely require that some developer have a commitment in place to use the property for

development after demolition.

In other words, the possibility of getting any grant money at all is about as remote as Duncan finding a responsible buyer for the building.

The financial burden for the project would be overwhelming for Lohrville and should not be a burden left to the city.

The burden is also somewhat overwhelming for the school district.

About 80 percent of the general operating budget of a district goes to salaries and the remaining 20 percent generally goes to basic necessities, not toward much of anything that could be called discretionary expenditures. If money is diverted from the general fund, staff has to be reduced and programs cut.

What has been called “extra money,” the additional sharing (three years) and consolidation (three additional years for a total of six) weighting in the per-pupil funding formula set by the state is designed to pay the transition costs. The consolidation is occurring for no other reason than that the consolidating districts did not have the financial ability to continue on their own.

Both districts have revenue sources specifically designated for construction (or demolition) and equipment costs, most notably the statewide one-cent sales tax for school infrastructure. Both districts also have a 34-cents per $1,000 taxable valuation Physical Plant and Equipment Levy, the maximum amount that can be approved by board action without a public referendum.

A public referendum to increase PPEL by as much as $1.34 would be difficult to sell to the public by explaining, “We need a few hundred thousand dollars to create a vacant lot in Lohrville.”

The RCL district was able to make changes with available funds at the middle school (former RCL high school) and elementary school in order to accommodate whole-grade sharing. Needed remodeling at the high school required the S. Cal to borrow against future one-cent local option sales tax revenue extending beyond the consolidation of liabilities and assets on July 1, 2014.

This action was fully out in the open and known in both districts before the consolidation referendum.

The S. Cal board was ethically and possibly legally required to send the decision regarding Lohrville building demolition to the SCC board. Three of the seven members are current S. Cal board members and four are RCL board members.

Despite the fact that the demolition would be a burden on the newly formed SCC district, the school system has both a better ability to pay than the city of Lohrville and more of an ethical responsibility.

Does the school system have 100 percent of the ethical responsibility?

Perhaps not.

Although it is unlikely that Duncan will find a responsible buyer, the possibility still exists. If the actions of the school board would not affect its ultimate legal responsibility toward demolishing the building, then it would make sense to let Duncan have his shot at finding a responsible buyer, however remote that possibility may be.

However, once the district no longer owns the building, there is no apparent mechanism for a school board to pay for a project affecting property the district does not own.

It is unlikely the school board has the legal authority to tell the city, in effect, “We’re sorry how things turned out. Let us give you a couple hundred thousand dollars for your troubles.”

I believe the school board members will do the right thing, but will retain Duncan’s bid to maintain leverage to get some help from Lohrville.

Following her report, she was asked whether there is a salad bar available at the high school and why do some students complain about being hungry.

Kutz said that the salad bar is available every day at the high school and twice a week at both the elementary and middle school. The salad bar is unlimited as part of the regular meal.

“I don’t know why they would be hungry except that high schoolers are always hungry,” Kutz said.

LOHRVILLE continued from page 1

Both are competitive grants and there is no guarantee of receiving either regardless of building ownership. It is unlikely that the grant would be awarded unless the demolition was undertaken to provide space for a specific development project that a developer has shown commitment to undertake.

No such commitment has been made but city officials have referred to interest being shown for that location if it is turned into a vacant lot.

The cost of creating that vacant lot, according to Peterson’s estimate, is $345,800. This is simply an educated guess and could vary considerably when bids are made for the demolition. The cost estimate includes $85,000 for asbestos abatement and $250,000 for the demolition plus some for the initial project set up.

It was unclear from discussion at the board meeting whether or not revenue or savings from further salvage of material is included in the cost estimate.

During discussion, Supt. Jeff Kruse noted that complications in arrangements could result in attorney’s fees for the project and possibly additional engineering fees.

If the building is sold intact and no major structural changes are made, the building can be reused without asbestos abatement. If, in preparing the building for reuse, walls are

removed or walls are stripped for repainting, then lead paint abatement would be also necessary.

The possibility of the building being sold for reuse was one of the matters discussed at the Sept. 18 meeting.

George Duncan, a Missouri based businessman, was present at the meeting in Lohrville to explain his interest in the property. He was one of two bidders for the former school building in Lohrville when the S. Cal Board opened bids during a joint board meeting in May of this year.

Duncan had the high bid of $11,100 and the only one that is still active after repeated extensions. At the Sept. 18 board meeting he allowed another 30 days for consideration of his bid.

Duncan said he was interested in buying the property for resale and has done this at various locations.

He said the best-case scenario is that a business buys the property and it becomes a valuable asset to the community.

Duncan said the worst-case scenario is that the building ends up needing to be demolished, an outcome it is apparently headed for now. He added that a private party might be able to demolish the building at a much cheaper cost because the individual would not be subject to legal requirements regarding union scale wages for the demolition. Duncan speculated that pre-arrangements could be made that would provide some of the demolition cost saving

The Graphic-Advocate benefits to the school district or the city.

Lohrville Mayor Donny Hobbs and Lohrville City Council Member Tami Mohr pointed out that the law he was referring to is the DavisBacon Act which mandates “the prevailing wage rates,” for federal projects but would not apply to a school district or city.

Various federal agencies have guides for construction contracts that refer to the Davis-Bacon Act. The Department of Energy Desk Guide to the Davis Bacon Act states, in part, “The DBA applies to contracts in excess of $2,000 for the construction, alteration, and/ or repair of public buildings or public works, including painting and decorating, where the United States or the District of Columbia is a direct party to the contract.”

Mayor Hobbs said at the Sept. 18 meeting that there is a scenario that is worse than the one described by Duncan - the school district sells the property, getting out from under the liability, and the buyer, or whoever the buyer sells to, strips the property of whatever salvageable material remains and abandons the property, which eventually reverts to being the city’s burden.

The Lohrville City Council had voted last summer to advise the school board to reject bids for the Lohrville building.

At the Sept. 18 meeting, Hobbs said, “The city has not changed its stance on this. At this point I don’t

see that there is anything that I am going to present to the council that is going to change their minds.”

There was discussion at the Sept.

18 meeting about potential school district funding sources for the demolition project. Supt. Kruse noted that there was not a readily available source for such a project.

He added that any long-term agreement that the S. Cal School District entered into would be void when the district ceases to exist on July 1, 2014, the date that S Cal and RCL merge to form the SCC district.

Kruse acknowledged that the S. Cal district did borrow money on future school infrastructure local option sales tax revenue in order to build the arts addition at the high school and that this debt will continue to be paid by the SCC district after the merger.

“Two thirds of the money the Southern Cal District gets from the one cent sales tax are now allocated to the fine arts building at the high school,” Kruse said, “Together we’ll have $600,000 from one-cent sales money but we have $200,000 that goes to payment for the fine arts building and $100,000 for technology. Now we’ve got roads and parking lots and other things that we’re trying to maintain with those funds also.”

A special meeting of the sevenmember SCC board has been called to consider offering the city of Lohrville to take possession of the building.

The fish was small but the fun was big during a youth fishing event offered by the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach-Calhoun County office and the Calhoun County Conservation Board on Sept. 7 at the Hwy. 4 Recreation Area just south of Rockwell City.

Youth Fishing Event Held Five youth from 5 to 12 years old took advantage of the nice weather and attended a youth fishing event offered by the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach-Calhoun County office and the Calhoun County Conservation Board on Saturday, Sept. 7. The event ran from 10 a.m. to noon and during that time over 15 fish were caught by the youth. A large variety of fish were caught including green sunfish, yellow bass, and

large-mouth bass.

All participants caught at least one fish and were very proud of their catch. Some even learned how to put their own worm on the hook.

Watch the newspaper as the next youth fishing event will be held sometime in January or February depending on weather conditions.

“This will take a while.” We heard from a woman who went to the Rockwell City Public Library on Saturday morning, Sept. 14, the day after Rockwell City police officer Jamie Buenting was killed in the line of duty, a couple blocks away.

This woman approached the library desk, where two other women were standing. The three stood together quietly. No words were necessary.

Speaking of the shock and grief, one woman finally said, “This will take a while.” Another one responded, “Yes, this will take a while.” They spoke of the community being

After recently celebrating 30 years of service at Shady Oaks on September 6, Joan Petzenhauser was honored with a retirement party a week later. With many friends, family, co-workers and Home Office guests present, she was honored with a crystal plaque for her years of service as well as a beautiful porcelain angel. A slide show highlighting many of the fun moments, events and pranks over her tenure was shown. Joan’s favorite, champagne cake, was served along with punch, nuts and mints. Joan worked in the office during her time at Shady Oaks doing medical records and then became the Office Manager with duties of accounts payable, payroll and accounts receivable. We will miss her jokes, compassion, friendship and lively personality. She is pictured here with her husband, Merrils and sons Byron and Corey.

It is hard to believe that September is coming to end. Seems like this year has been flying by. Soon it will be time to get ready for Halloween.

I have already been planning ahead for another fun Halloween party!

Fall also brings us our annual soup supper as well as the approaching holidays.

We are all looking forward to Monday the 30th. We will be having a party! Why? Well the boss will be at a meeting and is leaving us “home alone”! So we figured why the cats away the mice shall play! We have a potluck planned for our residents and staff. It’s a chance for us all to sit together as a family, enjoy some great food!

Continuing our service anniversaries for September is Leah Kretlow. Leah has been working in the dietary department for 12 years and has been promoted to Dietary Supervisor. Leah likes the family atmosphere and that she knows all the staff and residents on a personal level. Leah is the mother to Selena, Orlando and Daija. When Leah has free time she enjoys swimming,

reading, games, movies, bowling and Facebook.

Judy Weller is a nurse at Sunny Knoll. Judy has enjoyed getting to know the residents and her coworkers this past year. Judy is married to her husband Richard.

They live in Pomeroy. They have 2 daughters and 2 sons. They have been blessed with 2 granddaughter and 2 grandsons. In Judy’s free time she enjoys sewing, bowling, crochet, knitting, quilting and playing with her grandchildren.

My Thought for the week is: We didn’t get too much rain but since they had just planted our grass seed where they had dug for our septic tanks it came down nice and easy.

Yet another thought is nothing is quite so annoying as to have someone go right on talking when you’re interrupting.

The Trivia Question is: In the late 1890s two bank Presidents from what town each tried to outdo the other by building a hotel on “his side of town”?

Last week my daughter Katryn O’Connor stopped to visit me. She had been to Sac City to give a talk to

the students about diabetes.

The VFW Ladies went to dinner on Tuesday evening. Those attending were Shirley Redaisell, Dorothy Seimenn, and their guests Rose Heath and Joan Alspach, The answer to The Trivia Question is Forest City.

A lady from Lake City said she reads my column and asked me last week why it wasn’t longer. Well I said that people need to call me with news, I can’t make it up so call me.

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box.

You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

bigger than this, and one woman added, “God is bigger than this.”

It has been breathtaking -- the outpouring of support for Officer Jamie Buenting: from the changing of the guard during the visitation, to the presence of law enforcement officers from all corners of Iowa and some from Chicago, to the service of the Patriot Guards, to the motorcade procession that took at least half an hour to pass by, to the rider-less horse at the cemetery, and the fellowship time at the Calhoun County Expo Center. The memories, scriptures and prayers shared at the funeral helped us to feel closer, and to look up. We honor him as a police officer. We honor him as our friend.

Now we take up the challenge of his example.

Our sympathy goes out to Officer Jamie Buenting’s family.

We offer special condolences to his sister, Heather, who is part of the Sunnyview staff. The prayers we offer regarding this tragedy include everyone.

THANK THANK YOU YOU

T

he City of Rockwell City would like to thank all those who assisted us during and after the very tragic event that rocked our community, and beyond, on the morning of Friday, September 13, 2013.

On that day, we lost an adoring husband and father, a wonderful son, brother, and, just maybe and most importantly, a great human being.

Jamie was a very unassuming young man, one who loved the outdoors, loved living each day to its fullest, loved his profession, loved his training/classroom experiences, and without any doubt, loved his family with all his heart. He wore it on his sleeve.

He was that kind of genuine guy.

The citizens of Rockwell City, surrounding communities, counties, states, and well beyond those borders have been graciously engaged in sending their condolences and other resources memorializing our lost friend.

It will take a considerable amount of time for the family, friends, fellow law enforcement officers, and anyone who was impacted by this tragedy, to ease their heartache. There will come a day. Until then, we all need to lean on each other, grieve as necessary, and come out on the other side with a revitalized vigor. That is what Jamie would have wanted us to do.

There is absolutely no way to extend our thank you to everyone by name. So please allow me to mention some of those groups involved and deeply affected by this unfortunate and untimely tragedy: Rockwell City Police Department, City employees, City Council, Rockwell City Fire Department, and the citizens of Rockwell City Calhoun County Sheriff’s Department Calhoun County Ambulance personnel Iowa State Patrol Iowa Chiefs of Police Association Department of Criminal Investigation CERT Teams Calhoun County Attorney’s Office Iowa State Attorney General’s Office C.O.P.S. (Iowa Concerns of Police Survivors), a fantastic group Iowa Department of Natural Resources Local churches and clergy Palmer Swank Funeral Home South Central Calhoun Middle School administration and personnel Numerous concerned volunteers The Police Departments, County Sheriff’s Departments, and various departments from the surrounding communities and around the State All of the great departments and individuals that covered the shifts for the Rockwell City Police Department, a very gracious gesture allowing our officers a time to grieve and begin to recover from this traumatic event To all of those, not previously mentioned, and there are a ton of you, a heartfelt THANK YOU! As we pray for and comfort the Buenting family, let us not forget the Trott family. They need and deserve our prayers and concern also.

Now, it is our community’s charge and goal to comfort, protect, and serve the family of Jamie Buenting, his friends and law enforcement brotherhood. Jamie, I’m betting that, as your beautiful daughter Kalie requested, you have the best place in Heaven.

Rest in peace, 13-24. You will be sorely missed, cherished and remembered in our hearts and lives forever.

Thank you, Phil R. Heinlen Mayor of Rockwell City

SEPTEMBER 25, 2013

Titans fall to the Knights at Carroll on Sept. 20 with 8:09 remaining in the third period and was the only score of the contest in the third quarter.

In the fourth period, the Knights scored two more quick touchdowns to go up 49-0 as they scored on a seven-yard touchdown reception with 11:52 left in the contest to make it 42-0, then Kuemper intercepted a pass and returned it 35-yards for a score with 10:30 left in the contest to make it 49-0 Knights.

The Titans were able to crack the scoring column in the fourth period with a touchdown drive of 11 plays and 76 yards total culminated by a three-yard touchdown run

by Henkenius, who was in at quarterback, with 3:41 remaining in the contest. The Titans’ try for a twopoint conversion failed on the pass to make the final score of 49-6.

The Titans finished with 161 total yards of offense against the Knights while Kuemper had 439 yards of total offense, including 317 of which came through the air. SCC was limited to six first downs in the game while Kuemper had 19 for the contest.

Jeff King led the Titans on the ground with eight carries for 41 yards as the Titans finished with 72 yards as a team on the ground on 22 attempts. Zayne Barrett added 15 rushing yards for the Titans on four carries while Sam Spencer and Petzenhauser both had five yards rushing in the game.

By Doug Dornath South Central Calhoun’s varsity football team had a tough challenge facing them last Friday night in nondistrict football play as they faced Class 2A, No. 1 Kuemper Catholic of Carroll on the Knights’ homecoming in Carroll Friday, Sept. 20.

The Knights showed the Titans why they were ranked No. 1 in the their Class and pulled away to a 49-6 triumph as the Titans dropped to 1-3 on the season. “Carroll Kuemper has a good football team and I wish them the very best the rest of the season,� said SCC head football coach Bryan Case. “I thought we did some things well tonight, but at the same time we know we have a lot to work on. I’m proud of our kids for never giving up, and that will pay great dividends heading into the rest of our district season.�

Kuemper received the opening kick-off of the game and quickly scored the first touchdown of the game.

The Knights opening score of the contest came on a pass play as quarterback Cole Neary connected with Nick Greteman for a 20-yard touchdown pass completion to go up 7-0 with 10:33 left in the first quarter.

The Titans were held to a three-andout on their initial possession of the first quarter while the SCC defense came up with a fumble recovery on the Knights second possession of the game as Titan sophomore Derrick Henkenius scooped up the loose ball and returned it to the Knight’s 36-yard-line on a 49-yard return with 6:15 left in the first period. However, the Titans drive quickly stalled and SCC was forced to punt after another 3-and-out on offense.

Kuemper would score their second touchdown of the contest with 1:31 remaining in the first quarter on a 20-yard touchdown run by Cody Weitl to go up 14-0.

Late in the first half, the Knights offense struck for two more quick scores to go into the locker room

with a 28-0 lead. Kuemper scored with 1:47 remaining in the first half on another Greteman touchdown reception from 17 yards with 1:47 left. And scored again with a quick scoring drive with 21.1 seconds left in the half after holding the Titans to a 3-and-out as Chase Rupiper ran one in from seven-yards out.

In the second half, Kuemper converted an SCC turnover eventually into seven points to open the half and take a 35-0 lead. Kuemper’s Blake Eischied intercepted a Jake Petzenhauser pass on a third-and-15 for the Titans at the SCC 8-yard-line as Petzenhauser threw the ball deep towards a receiver near the end zone with 9:53 left in the third period.

The Knights would eventually score on a 62-yard touchdown reception to make it 35-0 Kuemper

Defensively, Rylan Richardson led SCC with 12 total tackles while Petzenhauser and Anthony Handlos had nine total each and Jeff King added eight. Cyle King and Tanner Wiederin finished with six tackles each against Kuemper while Neubaum, Spencer and Henkenius recorded three tackles apiece and Dylan Addison and Trenton Dorman both collected two tackles apiece.

The Titans return to Class 2A,

District 2 action this Friday night as they travel to Estherville-Lincoln Central to take on the Midgets. SCC is 1-0 in district play while ELC is 1-1 in the district and 2-2 overall.

ELC lost to Clarion-Goldfield 51-25 last Friday night in district play at Clarion. On Oct. 4, the Titans host homecoming against Forest City at 7 p.m.

The One That I Adore My dearest husband there are some things that I must say, In case I didn’t tell you As you left my world today.

I thank you for the love you gave, for the life that we have shared, for all the times you’ve comforted me, and showed me that you cared The life that we made together, with our children at our side, You were a special man With an internal light that any could see a loyal and true friend, and touched the lives of many, …until the very end.

Our world was very fortunate, to have you standing by, to protect, no matter what it took, to lay your life on the line, and … die.

Forever I shall be so proud, of what you did that day; to protect and serve and give your all, in the most courageous way.

My memories I shall cherish, I wish there were even more, of you my dearest husband, the one that I ADORE!
