possible for the city to reconsider with smaller increases over more years. “The rate increase comes for us at a difficult time. As you aware, the COVID19 pandemic has brought significant challenges to individuals and businesses, alike. BRC is no exception,” said Warner. “We estimate that the proposed water and sewer increase will raise our bill nearly $67,000 per year based on our current usage.” “From our perspective, the proposed increase in rates

seems to want to address all funding needs for improvements in a relatively short period of time,” he added. Councilman Jeff Whitaker said, “I hate to be sitting here calling for that rate increase, but I also hate to be sitting here when the water line busts and there is no water, and we don’t have 12 hours of emergency storage.” Tracy Tryon, former council member, asked council if there were other options See CITY | 2A

Lent a season of reflection Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent By Carol Marsh

DarkeCountyMedia.com

DARKE COUNTY — Every year, as sure as snow will descend across a wintry Ohio in February, people of all Christian faith traditions are preparing for the season of Lent. Originating from an old Anglo-Saxon word lencten meaning “spring or springtime,” the term “Lent” was first used as early as the 12th century to describe a period of fasting, abstinence and reflection in the weeks leading up to Easter Sunday. In 325 A.D., the idea of a 40-day seasonal fast was introduced at the First Council of Nicaea, and based upon the temptation of Christ in the desert prior to his public ministry (as noted in the Gospels, particularly in Matthew 4: 1-11 and Luke 4: 1-13). St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria and leader of the Council, wanted to be certain that the full 40 days were observed; during the season of Lent, Sundays were also considered “minor feasts,” and as such, could not be considered part of the “total count” of the fast. Thus, the first day of the seasonal fast, according to Athanasius, should be on a Wednesday, which has become known in the Christian world as “Ash Wednesday.” Many Christian traditions, such as Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran, and some Protestant denominations mark the start of Lent with worship services on Ash Wednesday. In the Roman Catholic tradition, although not considered a holy day of obligation, Ash Wednesday is faithfully observed by attending Mass See LENT | 3A

The Darke County Board of Commissioners approved a transfer of $140,000 of court funds with an eye to purchase a local business in downtown Greenville. The court wishes to turn the building into a center to conduct work-release classes and other life-building skills for ex-convicts. The board, though releasing the funds, does not express approval of the plan.

for funding besides raising rates on consumers. “I understand the need for the infrastructure to be done,” he said. “The city has gone in debt before for upgrades, with bonds…. it would make it a lot smaller rate increase needed from the public.” Councilman Clarence Godwin said the Utilities Committee had consulted with a grant writer, and that the city would currently be unable to get outside assistance due to city’s current low rates. “To get the grants or get any kind of federal funding, the government wants us to be helping ourselves. We’ve got low water rates and we’re not trying to do something to correct that,” he explained. Greenville resident Doug Flannery wondered

ing a continuous effort to restore the charitable aspects of our organization,” said Hale. “We know it has been a difficult year, so we want to give area schools a portion of our proceeds in the hopes that the money will be used for scholarships or anything the schools need.” Hale noted that he hopes the money will be used for college scholarships, but wouldn’t mind if it were used for other things. “Aside from this donation, we also plan to ramp up our fundraising and raffle efforts to be able to make more donations

about the move to bill monthly instead of quarterly and the additional billing costs. He also asked when the main water line is slated to be replaced. Councilman John Baumgardner said the main water line would be done in 2022 and the water tower could potentially be done by 2023 with added funding. Baumgardner said Greenville is in the “bottom three” in rates among comparable cities. “This increase will put us in the middle of those, those 40-some communities we compare ourselves to. Piqua, Ohio, will still be three times the amount that we will be,” he said. “Even with this big increase that we’re all talking about, we’ve got some really solid rates if you compare ourselves just to the other communities in Darke County.

Greenville pointed out many city residents, like himself, are on fixed incomes. “A large increase like that would drastically affect my budget,” he said, “They didn’t plan this in their 2020-2021 budget.” Safety/Service Director Ryan Delk told council he is investing various funding options, including grants and loans in order to help fund a new water tower. Greenville City Council meets the first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. Due to COVID-19 precautions, meetings are being conducted via ZOOM.

This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Vatican has issued a “no contact” protocol for the safe distribution of ashes: the priest will issue one blessing to all in attendance, and then, after washing his hands and putting on a face mask, will sprinkle ashes over the head of each person without speaking. Although different this year, parishioners are thankful that the churches are open, unlike last year, when they were shuttered throughout most of the Lenten and Easter seasons. Two interesting Lenten traditions are those of abstinence and fasting. In the age of social media, Twitter followers have also taken to posting their “fasting preferences” on the “Twitter Lent Tracker” (yes, it is real) since 2009. Items such as chocolate, sweets, coffee, meat and alcohol have consistently made the top 10 list of things people resolve to “give up” for Lent; however, more recently, habits, such as swearing and social networking, have also appeared. Throughout Lent, Catholics between the ages of 18 and 59 are required to abstain from eating meat (warm-blooded land animals), and often choose to consume fish (cold-blooded water dwellers). As a result, many churches and other organizations offer special Friday meals, often serving varieties of fish such as pollack, perch, haddock or walleye, served on “Fish Fry” Fridays, which often support the philanthropic outreach efforts of the church and community-at-large. In years past, before COVID19, lines of people would form to enjoy fellowship and “all-you-can-eat” meals during each Friday of Lent. This year, many have continued this tradition, continuing the carry

l y h l a t i l t n a m e e a F H D Protecting Children’s Oral Health Year-Round Tooth decay is considered the most common chronic childhood disease — five times more common than asthma — according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The department also reports that more than 51 million school hours are lost each year to dental-related illness. Fortunately, good oral health habits can keep tooth decay at bay. To help teach students and parents this important lesson, Trident gum has partnered with Smiles Across America (SAA), a program that links schools and dental care providers to help fight untreated oral disease. The company’s support has enabled SAA to double the number of children it cares for and expand services for more children in underserved communities. Smiles Across America offers these oral care tips:

• Brush both the teeth and gums, especially the areas where teeth and gums meet, and the chewing surfaces of teeth. • Brush after eating or drinking, especially after meal time. • Adults should supervise toothbrushing, giving a second brushing after kids have brushed to make sure teeth are clean. • Floss every day to remove food and plaque from between teeth and under gums. If plaque is not removed, it can harden into tartar — a hard, yellow buildup. • Visit the dentist every six months to one year for cleanings and checkups, beginning at age 1, when baby teeth are coming in.

For instance, dairy products provide calcium and vitamin D for strengthening teeth and bones, while breads and cereals supply B vitamins and iron for healthy gum tissue. For snacks, choose foods such as cheese, raw vegetables, plain yogurt or fruit, and limit the amount of fruit juice each day.

Protecting Teeth Children who play sports should wear a mouth guard to typically cover the upper teeth, and are designed to guard against broken teeth and other damage to the mouth. Kids who wear braces or other fixed dental appliances on their lower jaw might also need a guard for their lower teeth. Ask your dentist.

The Role Of Nutrition At any age, a complete oral health program includes sound nutritional habits. Many of the foods that help build strong muscles and bones in children also help build strong,

COVINGTON – The Arcanum Lady Trojans used a record setting 20 game win season to defeat the Indian Lake Lady Lakers 61-27 in second round OHSAA DIII Sectional tournament action. “It was a team effort – all of them,” said Arcanum coach Abbey Moore. “At times defensively we had some letdowns and those are going to be some big focuses in practice these next couple of days - and getting motivated.” “Trust me,” Moore continued. “That is not going to be hard because these girls are motivated right now. We set a school

record for the most wins in a season at Arcanum but we’re not going to be satisfied with that. That is a big honor for these girls and they deserve everything moving forward they are going to get.” The Lady Trojans got on the board just 3 seconds into the contest with Hailey Unger grabbing the opening tip from teammate Taylor Gray to score on a driving layup and give Arcanum a quick 2-0 lead. Indian Lake answered with a bucket to make it a 2-2 game in what would prove to be the closest the score would be the balance of night. Arcanum took advantage of a 23-0 run racing out to a 25-2 lead with 1:06 showing on the first quarter clock before the teams would close out first quarter play with the Lady Trojans holding a 25-4 advantage. Coach Moore continued

to go to her bench in second quarter play and pulled the Lady Trojans smothering defense in second half action while playing her entire bench. Keeping the game respectable, Coach Moore and the Lady Trojans would not score in the final quarter with the Lady Lakers taking the final period by a 1-0 score. “We talked about respecting our opponent in the locker room before the game started,” said Coach Moore. “For one of these teams tonight it is going to be your last game of the year. I use that to motivate my girls so that we make sure it’s not our last.” “We’re not ready for this special season to be over but yet at the same time I want them to know it is these girl’s last game, so we do it with dignity and respect,” Moore added. “I felt like we were able to do that tonight.”

Arcanum junior, Hailey Unger led Arcanum and all scorers with a game high 24 points. With the win, Arcanum advances in tournament play to face the Anna Lady Rockets; the team that battled back from a large deficit in the 2019-2020 tournament to bounce the Lady Trojans out of tournament play. Anna comes into the game earning a 50-11 Sectonal win over Dayton’s Northridge Lady Polar Bears. Like Arcanum’s strong start, the Lady Rockets raced out to a 19-2 first quarter lead in their Wednesday night win over Northridge. Arcanum and Anna will tipoff Monday, February 22 at Versailles High School with a 5:30 p.m. start time.

Lady Wave advance with win over Urbana By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia.com

NEW CARLISLE – The No. 9 seed Greenville Lady Wave defeated the No. 5 seed Urbana Lady Hillclimbers 49-37 in first round OHSAA DII basketball tournament play. “I’m really excited with our girls,” said Greenville coach, Rachael Kerns. “I tell my seniors every year we go until our seniors want to be done and our seniors are still playing really hard.” “Our conference (Miami Valley League) sometimes is a disadvantage to to us because we are so much smaller than some of those schools we play and then you come tournament time and it’s almost an advan-

tage that we had to play some of those schools,” Kerns stated. “We get seeded No. 9 and I understand we hadn’t won a lot of games, but if you look at who we played - Urbana plays hard but to give them a five and us a nine – it was a no brainer to go play them. I felt like we matched up really well, athleticism was very similar.” The Lady Wave bolted out to an 8-0 lead at 3:36 in the opening period before the Lady Hillclimbers took advantage of a 3-pointer to get on the board at 3:15 with its first score of the day. Greenville closed out first qaurter play with a double digit 15-5 lead led by Allison Powell’s 4-points, 3-points each from Nyesha

Yoder rounded out first quarer Lady Wave scoring with a 2-point basket. The Lady Wave pushed its lead to 19-5 to open the second quarter before coasting to a 12 point advantage with the teams heading to the break with Greenville doubling up on the Champaigne County girls 24-12. Greenville sophomore Minaxi Pandey came off the bench to lead the Lady Wave in first half scoring with 8 points including two 3-pointers and a perfect 2-2 at the charity stripe. “She can light it up,” Coach Kerns said of Pandy. “Unfortunately she had to batttle back through a really nasty injury. She was out for a little more than a month and then it took another two weeks to get her feeling good. How great is that to bring someone off the bench who can put the ball in the whole.” Greenville struggled to score in the third with Urabana taking the period 9-4 to trail the Lady Wave by a single digit 28-21 score with one quarter to play. The Lady Wave stormed back in fourth quarter play taking the period 21-16 to to earn a convincing win over the higher seeded Lady Hillclimbers and move on in tournament action.

Greenville junior Captain, Libby McKinney took advantage of two Urbana technical fouls to drill six straight free throws in the fourth. McKinney paced the Lady Wave in fourth quarter scoring with 8-points, Yoder added 6-points including 2-2 at the line, Fletcher went 3-4 at the charity stripe, Powell knocked down two free throws and Lilly Hayes and Wright each added a free throw. “Libby McKinney played the best game I have ever seen her play,” Coach Kerns noted. “She has had a fantastic week of practice. I am really glad to see her come out here and have the game she had.” “She got fouled and there was a technical right after and I said; ‘do I have to tell you who my shooter is going to be’ and they said ‘no’ – let’s see if she makes this one first,” continued Kerns. “She made it and I looked at her and said, ‘you have two more’ and she said ‘I got this’ – it’s just great to see that confidence coming from her.” “It got to the point it got a little chippy,” added Kerns. “A part of me is proud we can handle a little bit of it and then the othere part of me is we just got a really big stop, let that be the end of it. I love

the emotion, they care, they have that passion and you can’t make them have that.” Greenville was 18-25 at the free throw line for 72 percent shooting while Urbana could only muster 3-12 at the charity stripe for 25 percent shooting. “It’s something about tournament time,” Coach Kerns concluded. “Everything matters just a little bit more.” Abbie Yoder led Greenville with 12 points in the first round tournament win. Greenville advances in tournament play as the No. 9 seed taking on the No. 3 seed Trotwood-Madison Lady Rams Thursday, February 18 at Tecumseh High School with an 8 p.m. start time.

ARCANUM – Arcanum senior, Joseph Beck the son of Chris and Michelle Beck signed to kick for the Ashland University Eagles football program. “It’s huge,” said Beck of his NCAA DII signing. “Not everyone gets to get there. Just the work I have put in to get there is huge. It’s not just huge for me but it’s huge for my family and our football program.” “I am just so proud of Joe,” said Arcanum football coach Jason Schondelmyer. “It is what every player dreams of. A kid just keeps grinding and working and working and working and then it pays off and he is going to be not too far away kicking at the next level.” Beck plans studies in Exercise Science while attending Ashland University. The standout Trojans kicker looks to fill the role of kicker/punter with an emphasis on place kicking while studying Exercise Science at Ashland. “It will be a lot of work,” Beck stated. “I definitely have some competition ahead of me. Currently Ashland doesn’t have a starting kicker so there’s a wide open spot – I just have to get there and compete.” The 5’8” 150 pound Beck didn’t see this signing day coming early in his high school football career kicking for the

Trojans. “I really didn’t think about it at first,” said Beck. “We thought a little about it trying to get myself out there and go to college and possibly think maybe this is something I could do. More towards my senior year we were really pushing hard on it – thought I could go somewhere with it. To go to Ashland is really big for me.” “When Joe came out his freshman year and literally he said, ‘I want to be a kicker and I said fine,” Coach Schondelmyer stated. “We had an area for him to practice and he practiced non-stop. The frustrating thing as a coach, that first year he really wasn’t improving very fast.” “He was so determined and he just continued to

Mom helping with all my academic things and funding which is huge for me – just all her support.” “My coaches,” Beck added. “They have helped me get where I am. My teammates pushed me harder and made me better.” Beck’s career goal – “To be the best there is no matter where I am at – even if I fall short go in there and do my best.”

get better and better,” he added. “He is one of the most determined young men I have come across in all my years – just a tough kid. Mentally tough, physically tough.” Beck proved hard work and determination pays big dividends helping the Trojans to a winning football season a season that saw the senior miss just one kick. “What a weapon especially in small school football and any level of football,” Coach Schondelmyer said of Beck’s accuracy. “You just don’t’ see it as much at our level having a kicker that can just boot the ball and I’m talking from 40 yards. We felt toe was good and we were willing to do that but that’s just him.” Beck took time to thank the many that

GREENVILLE — Terry Lee Cassel peacefully went home to be with the Lord, Tuesday, February 16, 2021. His parents, Virgil Sylvester and Serena Elizabeth Cassel, having passed before him, joined in the heavenly celebration. Also preceded him in death was his brother, Jerry (Shirley) Cassel, and father-in-law, Ralph Mumaw. Born in Greenville, January 1, 1949, he lived a full life enjoying boating, traveling with great friends, and hosting lasagna parties with his wife Linda (Mumaw), whom he married May 31, 1985. After earning his Organ Performance Degree from Taylor University in 1971, he taught in the

Cambridge City School system. He also enjoyed working alongside his father in the family business, Cassel Insurance Agency, and later branched out with his own firm, Bradford-Greenville Insurance. He returned to his teaching roots in the early 1990’s directing the Valley View Show Choir and teaching general music to junior/senior high school classes. There was not a day that went by that he did not enjoy his profession of music - teaching and performing. He spent most of his life filling the sanctuaries of local churches with traditional organ music. He was abundantly, musically talented. It was a joy for

him to perform with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir during a Christmas Spectacular. For many years, he played Christmas concerts, directed The Oratorio Society, Handel’s Messiah, and numerous dinner theater programs in the community. Surviving in love are his wife, Linda; son, Ben and Tracey (Rauch) Cassel; daughter, Betsy and Aaron Ward; step-daughters Heather Ingle, Christina and Ryan Hurley, and Angela and Jason Willis; grandchildren, Brett and Kate Cassel; Carter, Ryan and Brady Ward; Emma, Kale and Caitlyn Ingle; Brayden and Ethan Hurley; motherin-law, Jane Mumaw; brother-in-law, Terry and Joyce

The cost of Darke’s wintery weather By Carol Marsh

DarkeCountyMedia.com

DARKE COUNTY — With a foot of snow on the porch, below-zero temperatures overnight, and car windshields glazed over with the trappings of last weekend’s mini-blizzard, Jack Frost is poised to give Ohioans yet another reason to get out their shovels, scrapers, and salt. Yet, when pondering what the Ohio Department of Transportation spends annually on snow removal and supplies to ensure public safety, that $5.99 bag of “Ice Melt” doesn’t seem so bad after all. According to last year’s state statistics, ODOT annually spends $50 million labor, equipment, and materials, for a total of 40-45 percent of its total operating expense on snow removal for Ohio’s 43,000 miles of highway. Depending on the severity of the weather, ODOT uses between 300,000 and 900,000 tons of salt each winter, with an average yearly usage of 600,000 tons. ODOT uses a combination of liquid materials and rock salt to treat roadways before, during, and after winter weather events. Treated salt, which is a mixture of standard rock salt and a corrosioninhibited chloride product, is designed to enhance rock salt performance by improving its effectiveness at low temperatures. Treated salt costs approximately $15 more per ton than standard rock salt, which can add up, depending on the amount used per snow event. Each county, through coordination with its respective district office, plans and prepares for winter weather, which includes equipment readi-

When faced with a major winter weather event with rapid snow and ice accumulation, residents should be cautious when attempting to travel. Although county roads have been plowed regularly and often, drifting snow can cause roads to become slippery, and residents who live close to State highways and routes should avoid plowing their driveway snow into the road. Jim Comer | Darke County Media

One problem faced by residents is driveway obstruction due to snow ridges which form when plowing streets. Cars can quickly become immovable by snow mounds formed as a result of plows coming down the streets. If at all possible, residents should find alternate parking until the roads have been cleared.

ness, truck routing, call-out procedures, supplemental drivers, emergency equipment rental, training, and material inventory control. Counties utilize these plans to treat and remove ice and snow from the roadways during winter weather events. ODOT’s District 7, which serves seven Ohio counties (Auglaize, Champaign, Clark, Darke, Logan, Mercer, Miami, Montgomery and Shelby) maintains its Darke County outpost and maintenance garage, located at 5230, Industrial Way in Greenville, to provide service support for snow and ice removal operations, along with pothole patch and repair, roadside mowing, litter control, and other routine maintenance along state, federal, and interstate highways. When faced with a major winter weather event with rapid snow and ice accumulation, as Darke County has experienced over the course of the week, residents should be cautious when attempting to travel. Although county roads have been plowed regularly

and often, drifting snow can cause roads to become slippery, and residents who live close to State highways and routes should avoid plowing their driveway snow into the road. ODOT encourages everyone in Darke County to stay safe and take precautions when driving in winter weather. “We are asking drivers to please move over, slow down, and give our crews room to work,” said Tiffany Oliphant, ODOT Public Information Officer, District 7. “Our crews are working in the northern areas in 12-hour shifts.” Such weather events can often create hazardous road conditions, and public safety is paramount for all who venture out. “At least 11 crews were hit in the last two weeks, more than we’ve had all of last year,” said Oliphant, “So we are asking drivers to please pay attention, put the distractions down, and watch out for everyone so we can all go home safe.” Matt Myers, Street Superintendent for the City of Greenville, also advises that residents use caution

when approaching the roads. “The snow removal is going well. It can be challenging when we get two snows back-to-back.” Myers asks residents to avoid shovelling or blowing snow onto the street, as drifting snow can become hazardous very quickly in freezing temperatures. With a 12-person crew operating 11 trucks citywide, and providing around the clock service, getting the snow off the streets can cause frustration for many. “Our crews plow curb to curb, so if cars are on the side of the road, the plow cannot do its job properly,” said Myers. ” The street still gets cleared, but it creates problems for everyone.” One problem faced by residents is driveway obstruction due to snow ridges which form when plowing streets. Cars can quickly become immovable by snow mounds formed as a result of plows coming down the streets. If at all possible, residents should find alternate parking until the roads have been cleared.

“Everything depends upon the snow,” said Myers. ” Main routes get done first, with secondary streets next. If you know we’re going to get snow, please try to get your car off the road, if possible.” For questions or concerns about snow removal

COIN SHORTAGE ZIP CODE DISTRIBUTION NOTICE

■ OHIO AREA RESIDENTS CASH IN: Pictured above and watched closely by guards are protected U.S. Coin Packages containing the valuable unsearched Vault Bags that everyone will be trying to get. It’s hard to tell how much these unsearched bags loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins could be worth someday. That’s because each Vault Bag is known to contain nearly 3 pounds of U.S. Gov’t issued coins some dating back to the early 1800’s, so you better believe at just $980 these Unsearched Vault Bags are a real steal.

Decision puts valuable United States coins back in circulation – zip codes determine who gets them Unsearched Vault Bags loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins some dating back to the 1800’s and worth up to 50 times their face value are actually being handed over to residents who find their zip code on the Distribution List below and beat the 48 hour order deadline

Who gets the U.S. Gov’t issued coins: Only U.S. residents who find their zip code listed on the Distribution List below are getting the U.S. Gov’t issued coins. If you find your zip code listed below call: 1-800-867-1535 UV3498 “The vaults at Federated Mint are going empty,” said Mary Ellen Withrow, the emeritus 40th Treasurer of the United States of America. That’s because a decision by Federated Mint to put rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins, some worth up to 50 times their face value, back in circulation means u nsea rched Vau lt Ba gs loaded w ith U. S. Gov’t issued coins dating back to the 1800’s are now being handed over to U.S. residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication. “These are not ordinary coins you find in your pocket change. These are rarely seen silver, scarce, collectible and noncirculating U.S. coins dating back to the 1800’s so we won’t be surprised if thousands of U.S. residents claim as many as they can get their hands on. That’s because after the bags were loaded with nearly 3 pounds of U.S. Gov’t issued coins the dates were never searched and the bags were securely sealed. That means there’s no telling what you’ll find until you search all the coins,” said Withrow. “But don’t thank the Government. As Executive Advisor to Federated Mint, I get paid to inform and educate the general public regarding U.S. coins. Ever since the decision by Federated Mint to put rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins back in circulation, I’m being asked how much are the unsearched Vault Bags worth? The answer is, there’s no way to tell. Coin values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees, but we do know this. Each unsearched bag weighs nearly 3 pounds and is known to contain at least 5 Morgan Silver Dollars and these coins alone could be worth $35 - $325 in collector value each according to The Official Red Book, a Guide Book of United States Coins. So there’s no telling what you’ll find until you search through all the coins. But you better believe at just $980 these unsearched Vault Bags are a steal, “said Withrow. The only thing U.S. residents who find their zip code printed in today’s publication need to do is call the National Toll-Free Hotline before the 48-hour deadline ends. This is very important. The Vault Bag fee has been set for $1,500 for residents who miss the 48-hour deadline, but for those

U.S. residents who beat the 48 -hour deadline the Vault Bag fee is just $980 as long as they call the National Toll-Free Hotline before the deadline ends. “ R emem b er t h i s , we ca n not s t op collectors from buying up all the unsearched bags of coins they can get in this special advertising announcement. And you better believe with each bag being loaded with nearly 3 pounds of U.S. Gov’t issued coins we’re guessing they’re going to go quick,” said Withrow. The phone lines will be ringing off the hook beginning at precisely 8:30am this morning. That’s because each unsearched Vault Bag

is loaded with over 100 highly sought after collector coins dating clear back to the 1800’s including iconic Morgan Silver Dollars, a historic Peace Silver Dollar, stunning Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars, the collectible Silver Eisenhower Dollars, spectacular Silver Liberty Head Half and Quarter Dollars, rarely seen Silver Franklin Half Dollars, high demand President Kennedy Silver Half Dollars, beautiful Silver Standing Liberty Quarter Dollars, American Bicentennial Quarters, rare Liberty V Nickels, one cent Historic Wheat Coins including 1943 “Steel Cents”, one of the beautiful Winged Liberty Head Dimes, scarce Indian Head one cent

U.S. coins and the last ever minted Buffalo Nickels. “With all these collectible U.S Gov’t Issued coins up for grabs we’re doing all we can to answer all the calls,” said Withrow. Thousands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the valuable U.S. Gov’t issued coins. That means U.S. residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication can claim the unsearched bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S. Gov’t issued coins found inside. Just be sure to call before the deadline ends 48 hours from today’s publication date. ■

Better read this if you are 62 or older and still making mortgage payments. More than 1 million seniors have taken advantage of this “retirement secret.”

It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 45% of their total net worth. And with interest rates near all-time lows while home values are still high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built-up equity. But, many aren’t taking advantage of this unprecedented period. According to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 7.19 trillion dollars* of unused home equity. Not only are people living longer than ever before, but there is also greater uncertainty in the ecomony.

For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with a HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 98% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special

All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan; however the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions.

loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners - especially in times like these. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a safety net for financial emergencies. If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make the best decision - for your financial future. It’s time to reverse your thinking

As Featured on: ABC, CBS, CNN & Fox News

*Source: https://reversemortgagedaily.com/2019/12/17/senior-housing-wealth-reaches-record-high-of-7-19-trillion Reverse mortgage loan terms include occupying the home as your primary residence, maintaining the home, paying property taxes and homeowners insurance. Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is taxdeductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance.
