GREENVILLE — There is nothing better to beat those “winter blues” than to challenge them with with fresh, fun ventures around town. In taking the initiative to visit new neighborhoods and places, residents might discover (as I have) the hidden trove of delicious eateries and restaurants that Darke County has to offer. Thanks to the Darke County Visitor’s Bureau (DCVB), a great meal with terrific service is waiting for culinary adventurers this weekend, through its annual “Pizza and Pints” celebration of Restaurant Week in Ohio.

Through Pizza & Pints, ongoing from Jan. 24 through Feb. 6, the DCVB has teamed up with local restaurants from around the county for this special event. Several great restaurants and pizza places, who each have their own special way of making pizza, welcome everyone to come in and enjoy a variety of menu offerings, while enjoying a pint (or two) of one’s favorite beer or beverage. To celebrate this event, each restaurant has a special “Pizza & Pints” offering, which allows patrons to sample the tasty pizza and refreshing pint, with some even creating their own brews. In celebrating Restaurant Week, the DCVB is encouraging patrons to participate by offering a chance

to win a 55” UHD television. Just pick up a “Pizza & Pints” card from one of the participating restaurants, or at the Welcome Center, 421 S. Broadway, Greenville. When dining out, get at least three stamps from three out of seven participating restaurants. Then, mail it in or return the card to the DCVB by Feb. 15. For more information on Pizza & Pints, call the DCVB at 937-548-5158. The 2021 Pizza & Pints includes stops in Greenville, Palestine, New Madison, Versailles, Arcanum and Ansonia. The restaurants include: The Merchant House, 406 S. Broadway, Greenville; The Don’s Pizza, 617 S. Broadway, Greenville; A.R. Winery, 3564 Gordon Landis Road, See DCVB | 6A

Make contingency plans for possible obstacles. 3) List progressive milestones with rewards or acknowledgements. 4) Chart your progress. This should be a visual that displays each milestone once it is accomplished or during intervals of time. 5) Review your progress on a basis that keeps you encouraged and motivated, such as monthly. This is necessary for you to stay focused and on track. It’s also a great time to list any impediments you may be encountering and review your contingency plans and/or develop new alternatives to move you towards your goal. With small but consistent steps you can’t help but be “a better you” next year!

I was dating my weekly newsletter to parents last Friday and noticed that January was about half over. Today as I write we are well on our way to February. Jan. 22 was not only the last day of the second quarter, but also the last day of the first semester. The school year is half finished! You would think that after all the years I have taught I would have ceased being amazed at the rapidity of the school year. But every year I find myself wondering what became of the previous month. The staff and students returned to school on Jan. 4, after enjoying 12 days of Christmas break. (Hmm…12 days of Christmas. You know that would make a nice song, don’t you think?) We opted to begin school in person. Looking back over the first semester, I realize how fortunate our school has been. I hesitate to tempt fate, but we have had no serious outbreaks of the virus. Most students who were quarantined this year did so due to a family member’s illness. Our custodial staff have been great keeping the school safe and sanitized. They have not only cleaned the school, but constructed plexiglass dividers for the classrooms. I have been so proud of my little students for their cooperation wearing masks or shields and washing their hands. In my classroom all the COVID precautions have produced a side benefit. I was tidying up my room after school, when I

We would like to thank our family members, church family, and friends for praying for us as we journey through the loss of our loved one, John Winger. We also appreciate the many cards, phone calls, online condolences, delicious foods, and generous donations to several organizations in John’s name. All of your expressions of sympathy will be remembered with our deep gratitude. May God bless each of you who have supported our family in loving ways and means.

With the Covid 19 in 2020, we were only allowed to have close family at the funeral. For 6 years, Chet went to Wayne Healthcare, Greenville for Pulmonary Rehab Therapy, 3 days a week, which helped add years to his life. Then near the end, there was Kidney Dialysis 3 days a week. I can’t say enough for these places as well as Comprehensive Health that came to our house for a few years during Chet’s illnesses. We also thank Hospice who provided care the last 2-3 days of his life. I am so grateful for our amazing children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, Chet’s brother, sister-in-law, sister as well as my niece for being there physically and emotionally during my cancer illness which began shortly after Chet’s passing. I have had overwhelming support of friends and family since Chet passed nearly one year ago and I greatly appreciate all of them. I thank Kreitzer Funeral Home for helping me with Chet’s arrangements, also Pastor Mel Musser and Chet’s grandson, Dr. Adam Wirrig, Pastor, who gave a wonderful Eulogy. In Chet’s memory, Sharon Wirrig

WILLIAM FRANKLIN ‘BILL’ DAVENPORT GREENVILLE — William Franklin “Bill” Davenport went to be the Lord January 26, 2021, following a courageous battle. Bill was born on May 6, 1956, to William and Barbara (Blade) Davenport in Dayton, Ohio. Bill attended The Ohio State University, majoring in dairy science. There he met the love of his life, his wife of 43 years, Beth (Deam) Davenport, whom he married March 4, 1978. They built an active and loving family with their four children: Rachel (Mike) Fearon of Greenville, Nathan (Jennifer) Davenport of Greenville, Nicia (Josh) Hanes

of Union City, and Abbey (Chase) Moore of Arcanum. He was beloved by his grandchildren—Madelyn, Seth, and Edee Fearon; Adrina, Brielle, Carleigh, and Gracie Davenport; Harley, Caden, Cole, and Hadley Hanes; and Lilly, Navie, and Toby Moore. Bill was a dairyman at heart and managed Dalwood Dairy in Wakeman, Ohio, for a number of years. He retired from Harvestland Co-op in 2019 and found enjoyment working at the Graves- Fearon Insurance Agency. Bill adored his wife Beth and his family, with whom he loved spending time at ball games, livestock shows,

and fishing trips. He was a lifelong fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Cincinnati Reds, and he traveled to numerous Big Ten championship games with Beth, their family and friends over the years. Bill was also devoted to his faith, instilling important values in his family such as hard work, dedication, patience, love, and courage. At the start of his valiant battle with cancer, Bill was introduced to Joshua 1:9: “This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and discouraged, for the Lord your God is with

you wherever you go.” He lived this verse to the fullest, and he spent the last years of his life fighting to be with the family and friends he loved. In addition to his wife, children, and grandchildren, Bill is survived by his mother, Barbara; his siblings Dale (Karen) Davenport, Darryl (Bev) Davenport, Robin Burns, Darren (Kara) Davenport, and Krista (Tom) Parker, his brothers- and sisters-inlaw, Tom Deam, Michele (Steve) Specht, Steve (Deidre) Deam, and Neil (Jennifer) Deam; and will be dearly missed by his

travel! It did not matter if it was just a Sunday drive to visit friends or one of many family fishing and hunting trips to Canada, Montana and New Mexico, she always enjoyed an adventure! One of her most favorite trips was the two months she and Richard spent driving to Alaska in their truck camper. Although Barb dedicated her life to helping others, her greatest passion and accomplishment was raising her family. Though only being five feet tall, she was a gentle giant, but she could also be a force to be reckoned with. Barb was, in life as she was in her death, a Fighter and a Survivor! She was a breast cancer survivor of over eight years and a fighter up until she took her last breath. So much so, she earned the nickname “Rocky” from her nurses.

“Mom, you’ve fought the good fight and now your work is done. Fly high with the angels as there is no doubt you’ve earned your wings! Rest easy you beautiful soul.” A memorial celebration of Barb’s life will be held at Greenville Union Cemetery at a later date. In lieu of flowers, Barb would love a donation be made on her behalf to: State of the Heart Care, 1350 N. Broadway Street, Greenville, Ohio 45331. www.stateoftheheartcare. org Barb’s family has entrusted Tribute Funeral Homes to handle her final arrangements.

BARBARA (HOUDESHELL) SKINNER GREENVILLE — Our loving Mother, Barbara (Houdeshell) Skinner, went to be with the Lord on Jan. 24th, 2021. She was 73 years young. She was born July 14, 1947, in Greenville, Ohio, to the late Donovan Houdeshell and Phyllis (Gibson) Cheadle. In addition to her parents, Barb was proceeded in death by her husband of nearly 56 years, Richard; her two brothers, Chester “Chet” Cheadle and Greg Cheadle; all of whom she has dearly missed and will be waiting to greet her in Heaven. She is survived by a son, Richard “Rick” and his wife, Kris, and their two children, Katelyn and Kyle; her daughter, Julie Skinner, and her son, Brayden. She is also survived by her brothers, Donovan “Don” Houdeshell of Asotin,

Washington state, Ronald Houdeshell of Dayton, Ohio; and a sister, Bonnie Rodgers, and husband, Dave, of Dayton; and several nieces and nephews. Barb truly loved life and spending time with her family and friends. She loved making and creating things throughout the year that she could share with others, such as wonderful meals, ceramics, homemade greeting cards to scrapbooks, anything that she thought would bring joy, beauty, or happiness to someone’s life. But the thing Barb loved the most and she will probably most be remembered for was her love of flowers, herbs, and gardening! She loved sharing her knowledge of herbs, plants with anyone that would listen or take them. She was always giving away a start of a plant or something she grew in

her greenhouse. She took her love of gardening to another level as she was a long-time member of the Ladybug Garden Club where she served in many leadership roles over the years. There are many words we could use to describe Barb’s life, but Faithful Servant would be the most appropriate. Not only was she a wonderful Mom, selflessly serving her family, but she was a faithful servant of Jesus and her church family at Gospel Baptist Church. Barb was always looking for ways to serve others, her friends, and her community. To say serving others was her lifelong calling is an understatement. This started early in life as she began working as a young teenager waitressing in her Aunt’s corner café in

Arcanum and continued as a waitress for many years at Schumeth’s restaurant in Greenville, all while raising a family. Her life of service continued for 23 years as she sacrificed, weekends, nights, and holidays to help others as a Deputy 911 Dispatcher at the Darke County Sheriff’s Office. After she retired in 2007, she found herself spending her free time serving as an auctioneer’s assistant and clerk for Mike Baker and Jim Wroda, where she made many more lifelong friends. When Barb was not helping others, spending time in flowerbeds, or at an auction, you could find her cheering for one of her grandchildren at a sporting event, or some special event they were involved in. She loved to

cold. Any outdoor animals should be immediately brought and kept inside until the storm and cold temperatures pass.” The ASPCA recommends that pet owners follow expert advice during severe winter weather to help prevent cold weather dangers from affecting pet health. First, if it is too cold for you, it is probably too cold for a pet. Keep pets inside where they can stay cozy and safe. Ensure they have a warm place to sleep that is off the floor and away from drafts. If symptoms of frostbite occur, contact your veterinarian immediately. Second, after each walk, make sure to clean and properly dry a pet’s feet and stomach. Bring a towel on long walks to clean off irritated paws. While on a walk, a pet may step in ice, salt, and chemicals—which can be very painful. Remember to check for cracks in paw pads or redness between the toes. Booties can be effective in covering and protecting paws when out on walks. Third, never shave a pet down to their skin and try not to bathe them as often during cold spells. Longer coats provide more warmth, like wearing a winter coat. If a pet is long-haired, just trim them to minimize clinging ice balls, salt crystals and de-icing chemicals that can dry out the skin. Bathing too often can remove necessary essential oils and increase the chance of developing dry, flaky skin. When bathing a pet, use moisturizing shampoo and/or rinse recommended by a veterinarian. Fourth, thoroughly clean up any antifreeze spills. Antifreeze is lethal for both dogs and cats and pet parents should be extra careful when using this chemical. Consider using products that contain propylene glycol rather than ethylene glycol. Additionally, cold weather chemicals like ice melts can be dangerous when ingested, so always be mindful and keep chemicals up and out of paws’ reach. If you suspect your pet has been exposed to any poisonous substances, contact your veterinarian or call ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (APCC) at 888-426-4435 immediately. Fifth, keep dogs on the leash in snow or ice, especially during a snowstorm. Dogs can lose their scent in the snow and easily become lost. Many dogs are lost during the winter season, so make sure your pet always wears an ID tag and consider visiting a veterinarian for a microchip implant. Finally, during the winter, outdoor cats sometimes seek shelter underneath cars. Bang loudly on the car hood before starting the engine to give cats a chance to escape. Founded in 1866, the ASPCA is a national leader in the areas of anti-cruelty, community outreach and animal health services. For more information, please visit www.ASPCA.org, and be sure to follow the ASPCA on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

PIQUA — The Edison Foundation has joined together with Edison State Community College to provide funding for student emergency needs. After a yearlong study, The Edison Foundation Board of Directors approved the Student Emergency Assistance Fund formation in June 2020, along with budgeting $5,000 for FY21 as startup funding. The newly formed fund is a critical lifeline of support that provides immediate aid to students threatened due to unforeseen circumstances. The Student Emergency Assistance Fund is available to students currently enrolled at Edison State who have emergency needs beyond academics. Needs, which if left unaddressed, would significantly compromise their ability to finish the semester. A student may request expenses totaling up to but not exceeding $500 to be covered once per academic year for the following eligible costs: childcare, food/meals, gas, housing/rent,

Campus Safety and Security staff were in the building as we worked on emergency plans with every part of the college to find ways for our students to complete their educational goals in the midst of a global crisis,” said Jamison. Jim Bowell was then hired as a part-time Operations Center Manager. As the Department implemented safety measures that included screening every person that came into campus buildings, we also knew that the permanent safety improvements would require additional staff, both at the Piqua and Regional Campuses. Staff expansion of the Department of Public Safety began in earnest to meet these new needs and prepare for the future with the support of Edison State’s President and her cabinet.

two police officers of the Edison State Police Division. Both of which are well known on campus, have been students, and served as security officers for a number of years — Adam DeBrosse and Ragan Williams. Officer DeBrosse, a Piqua resident, had served as a Security Guard through a private company until he completed the Edison State Police Officer Academy, when he was hired by the college as its first armed security officer. Officer Williams, of Lima, had attended Edison State as a student-athlete on the Volleyball team. She completed the Edison State Police Officer Academy in December of 2019. At about this same time, a vacancy occurred for the contracted security guard that worked evenings at the Greenville Campus. Campus Security Officer Joe Speer, a retired police lieutenant from Piqua Police Department, who lived and worked in Covington, accepted the part-time job as an Edison State employee. He also began assisting in the establishment of professional standards for the department and the development of a policy manual for the newly formed police department. As campus vulnerabilities were assessed by the new staff, the need for improvements to emergency operation plans was identified.

PIQUA — Edison State Community College students will have a safer campus thanks to the establishment of a campus police force. The Edison State Community College Department of Public Safety has changed dramatically over the past 18 months. After a very successful history creating a safe campus environment, and based on changing campus safety and security standards, the Department of Administration and Finance determined the need for an armed presence on campus. Safety had been maintained through some very welldesigned physical security measures and competent security guards contracted to serve the college. In mid-2019, a search was conducted for a Director of Campus Safety and Security. Bruce Jamison, retired Chief of Police from the City of Piqua Police Department, was brought on board and found support from administration and trustees to form a police department to meet the needs of a growing college with multiple campus locations through professional law enforcement. A police department was established by meeting the requirements of the Ohio Attorney General’s Office — the first new police department in the state in about five years. In early 2020, Chief Jamison swore in the first

Darke County phase 1B vaccine distribution continues Staff report

DARKE COUNTY — The Darke County General Health District has partnered with Family Health, Wayne HealthCare, and Reid Hospital to get the COVID-19 vaccine out to the residents of Darke County. Phase 1B vaccine distribution began Thursday, Jan. 21, and included individuals 80 years and older. “We were able to administer all 490 doses that we had in the county. We had some people not show up for their appointment but others were called to fill in their space. Everyone getting the vaccine was so thankful, which made all of the clinic staff feel good,” stated Terrence L. Holman, DVM, Health Commissioner.”This collaboration between groups worked out well and the outcome of patrons receiving their vaccine is a great start to becoming a healthier and stronger community.” The clinic is planned to continue next week when more vaccine is delivered. At this time, 540 doses are expected for the next clinic that will include individuals 80 years and older that were not able to receive vaccine at the first clinic, individuals 75 years of age and older; and those with a developmental or intellectual disability and one following conditions: cerebral palsy; spina bifida; congenital heart disease requiring hospitalization within the past year; severe type 1 diabetes requiring hospitalization within the past year; inherited metabolic disorders including phenylketonuria; severe neurological disorders including epilepsy, hydrocephaly, and microcephaly; severe genetic disorders including Down Syndrome, fragile X syndrome, PraderWilli syndrome, Turner

The Health Department would like to thank their partners and the community for all their cooperation during this pandemic and continue to ask everyone to wear a mask and practice social distancing.

The meet did not keep team scores but did allow the wrestlers to compete in a season marred by the COVID pandemic that included a recent 10 day Greenville wrestling program shutdown due to the Coronavirus. “It has absolutely been a rough year for us,” said Greenville wrestling coach, David Guillozet. “Ten days and that takes a lot out of the kids as far as staying in shape, but everybody else has to deal with it and so do we. We are working thru it. Hopefully it’s out of our system and the rest of the season we will stay healthy.” Greenville honored two seniors prior to the evening’s matches, Drayk Kallenberger and

Choice

Home education allows parents and caregivers the freedom to assume full responsibility for the K-12 education of their children. Parents must provide an annual notification to the state (or school district) of their intent to homeschool. The state requires homeschooling parents to teach specific subjects and also requires some level of assessment, testing, or evaluation of homeschooled students’ academic progress and proficiency. A wide variety of curricula and study options are available to parents who intend to home educate their children, ranging from online academy courses, CD and digital media courses with texts, traditional texts and tests, educational co-ops (academic enrichment courses and social gatherings), and learning ‘pods,’ (homeschool students studying individual subjects together). In addition to these offerings, homeschooled students may opt to participate in sports, music and arts programs through their local school district. Throughout Darke County, homeschool choices exist for parents seeking curricula and academic support options for their children. Basic Christian Education, BCE Academy, and the Emmaus Learning Center, located 7511 Palestine Union City Road, in Greenville, have been providing support to parents and students for almost four decades. The BCE Academy, which uses the Accelerated Christian Education (ACE)’s homeschool curriculum,, is accredited through the National Association of Private Schools (NAPS). Emmaus Learning Center, which has been helping students since 1994, offers a co-op experience for parents and students who seek a classroom environment throughout each week. Both BCE and Emmaus Learning Center welcome questions from those who might be interested in homeschooling by emailing BCE@BasicChristianEducation.com, or calling 937-548-1155.

failure. Many K-12 options exist from which parents and caregivers can make informed decisions for their children, from considering classroom size, school environment, and curricula, to exploring individual learning style, character development, and social well-being. As Ohioans celebrate School Choice Week (Jan. 24 to 30), families can consider the three basic educational avenues available to promote academic success — public school, private school, and home education. Traditional public schools are free to attend and widely available for families throughout the state. Because Ohio is one of the many states nationwide to offer “open enrollment,” which allows students to attend public schools outside of their own school districts, parents will often look to a school’s status, state ranking (“report card”), and curricula to guide them in their choice. Often, the “open enrollment” public school option can assist economically disadvantaged students gain access to academic programs and other technology not widely available within their own school districts, affording them a wider spectrum of future opportunities. Magnet public schools are also available in several Ohio counties, and often focus on specific themes, such as STEM

Started in 2011, National School Choice Week has grown into the world’s largest celebration of opportunity in education. The Week, officially recognized in Ohio by Governor Mike DeWine, is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical public awareness effort.

(science, technology, engineering, math) or the performing arts (music, theater, dance, visual arts). Charter public schools are another free option accessible to Ohio parents and students, which allow for greater flexibility in class size, instruction and pedagogy. In Ohio, charter public schools can be opened after they are authorized by school districts, colleges or universities, nonprofit organizations, other agencies, or the state. Charter public schools may also benefit economically and socially disadvantaged students who may thrive in a less formal, or traditional academic classroom environment. As with the traditional public school, charter public schools must demonstrate student accountability to maintain their credentials. Online public schools are permanent, fullyonline, and free educational options that teach students through digital classes. Some Ohio online

Dr. Craig Leland to retire from dental practice Staff report

GREENVILLE — The office of BurOak Dental and Dr. Zach Siefring wish to formally announce the upcoming retirement of Dr. Craig Leland in February 2021. Dr. Leland began his dental career in Greenville in July 1985 and is proud to have served the Darke County area for the past 36 years. Dr. Leland wishes to thank all of the patients he has seen over the years and is especially fond of all Leland of the relationships he has been able to develop. “I have been very fortunate to work with many wonderful families and staff members,” Dr. Leland said. “It has been especially rewarding to watch many families grow and mature and to have the privilege of being able to care for their children or grandchildren.” Dr. Leland and his wife, Susie, are looking forward to travelling and spending more time with their family and grandchildren. Dr. Siefring and the staff want to wish Dr. Leland and Susie a wonderful retirement and will continue to carry on the lessons and relationships set forth by Dr. Leland.

Bridges To College thankful for successful fundraising campaign Staff report

DARKE COUNTY — While 2020 was certainly a challenging and interesting year, it has also served as a reminder to count one’s blessings and to be thankful for the good in the world. As with many non-profits, Bridges To College was concerned how the pandemic would affect the ability to serve our community. Fundraising during normal times can be challenging for nonprofits, so the concern was great. When the decision was made to postpone its annual golf fundraiser in June, The Karlh McCallister Memorial, the organization decided to call on its closest supporters for a fundraising campaign in lieu of a golf outing. The McCallister Family and the Hansbarger Companies generously pledged to match all donations dollar for dollar up to $5,000 to help Bridges To College meet its goal of $15,000 to replenish the funds normally raised from the goal outing. Due to the generous support of the community and its supporters, Bridges To College is thankful and grateful to report the campaign was successful in meeting the goal.

Reier sentenced to two years incarceration By Nathaniel Kubik DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE — An Ansonia woman will spend two years in prison after being found guilty of felonious assault. Karen C. Reier, 61, appeared in Darke County Common Pleas Court Reier on Monday to be sentenced on one count of felonious assault, a second-degree felony. She was sentenced to two years incarceration with the ODRC. Judge Jonathan P. Hein presided over the hearing, with Assistant Prosecutor, James Bennett, and Reier’s defense attorney, Jose Lopez, present. Reier had previously been indicted on charges of attempted murder, a

first-degree felony, and felonious assault, a seconddegree felony, for shooting 26-year-old Devan Dickey in the abdomen at a private residence on May 2 on Beam Road near Ansonia. Reier and Dickey had been in a heated argument leading up to the shooting. Dickey has since recovered from the injuries inflicted by the gunshot. On Aug. 6, Reier pleaded not guilty to the charges by reason of insanity and was referred to a forensic psychologist. Reier returned to court on Aug. 6 and, without findings of any serious mental health issues, withdrew her insanity plea. Reier entered into a plea agreement on Nov. 26 and pleaded guilty to one count of felonious assault,

with the attempted murder charge being dismissed. Along with the dismissed charge, a firearm specification attached to the original charge was also dismissed. On Monday, Reier was sentenced to two years incarceration with the ODRC for one count of felonious assault, a second degree felony. Reier is eligible to file for judicial release to lessen her prison time after some mandatory time. If bad conduct is reported in prison, Reier can gain up to an additional year of prison time. Following her prison term, she has a mandatory three year post-release control period. Nathaniel Kubik covers courts and crime for Darke County Media.

ARCANUM — The Arcanum Village Council met Tuesday evening to celebrate the retirement of Keir Smith, Village Utilities Superintendent, and discuss the village fire department and new zoning map.

(Smith’s) dedication and devotion of services he has performed as the Village of Arcanum Utilities Superintendent.” Members of council also shared stories about their time with Smith and thanked him for his continued dedication to the community. Randy Baker will be taking Smith’s position as utilities superintendent. Village Fire Chief Kurt Troutwine presented the fire department’s 2020 yearly report. The packet he prepared provided a detailed outlined of all statistics relevant to the

fire department. Troutwine reported that, in total, the fire department made 153 runs last year, which he noted was an average number compared to previous years. He also made reports on the average response times per zone that the department covers, and stated that he was pleased with the times this year. Village Administrator Bill Kessler presented the village’s new zoning map. He stated that the zoning commission has been outstanding in working to correct the village’s zoning map that had not been updated

Council approved a motion to accept the new zoning map.

Stelvideo Grange adopt-a-family GREENVILLE — Stelvideo Grange members delivered to their ‘adopta-families’ for Christmas this year on Dec. 17. Those delivering were Harvey and Lynne Hinshaw, and Susan Gunckle. Stelvideo Grange and Stelvideo Junior Grange, along with an anonymous giver, collected a total of $830. They gave several different gift cards, cash, and other things. A delivery recipient, Bella, received a purple unicorn, Provided photo and another, Navyjo, Bella’s Grandma, Vicki Everhart, who is holding a picture of Bella, alongside her Great Grandma Connie Wilt, who is holding a picture of received a multi-colored Bella’s sister NavyJo, and her Great Grandpa Jack Wilt behind the two. llama plus other small gifts.

Here is Bella’s story: Bella is seven years old. On Bella’s second day of school, her mom noticed several bruises, and after doctor visits and blood work, Bella was diagnosed with Shwachman-Diamond syndrome; a rare bone marrow failure which can affect many parts of the body. She was also diagnosed with aplastic anemia; a rare condition in which the body stops producing enough blood cells. Bella has already spent five days in Cincinnati Childrens Hospital in January. Due to the treatments not working how doctors had

planned, Bella was evaluated for five days. She has been home for two weeks, and will soon travel to Cincinnati for 14 days of chemotherapy, then a transplant with a six-week stay. Once that is over, Bella will be staying in the Ronald McDonald house in Cincinnati for at least 100 days. Stelvideo Grange and Stelvideo Junior Grange, and others, were very blessed to have been able to help Bella and her family. Please pray for Miss Bella, her family, and her doctors.
