A man who filed false claims with his insurance company for years wound up on probation Friday, but might have to pay back as much as $250,000. Judge Gary Scales sentenced Larry Lee Sheehan, 55, to four years of probation and ordered him to pay his insurance company back a still undetermined amount. The Gila County Attorney’s Office had asked Scales to sentence Sheehan to more than three years in prison, saying that although Sheehan has no prior felonies he so deliberately defrauded the insurance company that he deserves a prison term. For three years, Sheehan reportedly submitted false insurance claims, collecting tens of thousands of dollars. When his insurance company grew suspicious of the receipts Sheehan was submitting and asked for proof of the items he had bought, Sheehan in January 2012 called the Payson Police Department and reported a burglary. Sheehan said someone had broken into his business, Payson Floor Covering, and stolen carpet and other items totaling $30,000. The detective found no signs of forced entry or even any disturbance in the dust in the storage area, said the pre-sentence report. Sheehan claimed the burglars took both the products and the receipts. Sheehan told the detective he bought the carpet inventory three years before with money he received from his insurance company after his truck was

Scales asked why the prosecutors offered probation if they wanted Sheehan to go to prison. Furthermore, in prison he couldn’t earn money to repay his insurance company. Sheehan’s lawyer, Michael Bernays, urged the judge to give Sheehan a chance. In an unrelated case, the Town of Payson paid Sheehan and his wife $75,000 in 2005 to settle a lawsuit. According to a complaint, Payson officers were responding to reports of a burglary near Sheehan’s home and

stolen. The detective learned in 2008 that Sheehan’s insurance claim for the stolen truck totaled $100,000, including the truck and its contents. “However, when pictures of the suspect in the stolen vehicle surfaced, the picture of the truck showed there was no tailgate and the only item in the back of the truck was a carpet cleaner,” according to a Payson Police Department report. Sheehan said he fought with his insurance company for years and it ultimately paid him $32,000 and then dropped his coverage. He used that money to buy carpet for his business. Sheehan did not have insurance for his business, but said he was going to claim the stolen items as a business loss on his taxes. “His misdeeds were eventually discovered after he attempted to report stolen product from his business in an effort to file a fraudulent loss on his taxes,” a probation officer wrote. Sheehan was later charged with multiple counts of forgery and fraudulent schemes and artifices. Sheehan could be ordered to pay up to $250,000 to his insurance company. A restitution hearing has not been set. This is Sheehan’s first felony conviction. He pleaded guilty to forgery. Matthew Greve, with the GCAO, asked Scales to consider a 3.75-year prison term for Sheehan. He said Sheehan lied during every step of the investigation, claiming it was just a “misunderstanding.”

went onto Sheehan’s property to investigate. When Sheehan told them to leave, one of the officers reportedly pulled a gate off its post on Sheehan’s property and dropped it, breaking Sheehan’s foot, according to the Roundup archives. The suit said Sheehan’s Payson Floor Covering business “suffered financial losses directly attributable to the physical injuries suffered by Mr. Sheehan.” The town settled with Shee han before it went to trial.

tural issues on the house, hung new blinds throughout the inside of the house, planted several trees and shrubs and finished other tasks around the house. Although the grant covered the cost of the materials, the Home Depot associates volunteered their time to honor a veteran.

Arizona children having a tough time From page 1 States scoring below Arizona included Georgia, New Mexico, Louisiana and Mississippi, with composite scores of between 30 and 38. The District of Columbia ranked last, with a score of 25. Moreover, Arizona also ranks almost last when it comes to per-student spending in public schools. A host of studies document the serious, long-term effect of child poverty, especially when compounded by a lack of medical care. Statistics compiled by the Children’s Defense Fund show the United States has the second highest child poverty rate among 35 industrial nations surveyed. The Children’s Defense Fund says children raised in poverty have a much greater chance of suffering an array of problems, including increased risk of arrest, imprisonment, poor health, unemployment and living in poverty as an adult. Family income is one of the strongest predictors of success in school. The Children’s Defense Fund report concluded: “Every fifth child (16.1 million) is poor, and every 10th child (7.1 million) is extremely poor. Children are the poorest age group and the younger they are the poorer they are. Millions of them are

unready for school, poorly educated and unprepared to face the future. Nearly 60 percent of all our children and more than 80 percent of our black and nearly 75 percent of our Latino children cannot read or compute at grade level in fourth and eighth grade and so many drop out of school before graduating. Seventy-five percent of young people ages 17-24 cannot get into the military because of poor literacy, health or prior incarceration.” The Arizona Legislature this year passed several measures that could have contrasting impacts on child welfare statistics by the end of this year. Lawmakers voted to reinstate KidsCare, a mostly federally funded program that provides health care coverage for children in families making nearly double a poverty-level wage. Arizona dropped out of the program five years ago, dropping some 50,000 children from the program. The Legislature argued Arizona couldn’t afford to pay its share of the program due to the recession, making it the only state to drop out of the program. Lawmakers approved a re-entry to the program this year, with almost all the money to provide the coverage coming from the federal government. Budget analysts predict 30,000 children will receive coverage.

In Gila County, the percentage of children without health insurance is even higher than the state average. An estimated 30 percent of Gila County residents get their health insurance through the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System. Restarting KidsCare could have an impact on those statistics. On the other hand, last year the Legislature also imposed a one-year, lifetime limit on welfare for Arizona families — making it the most stringent state in the nation. The move will save the state $4 million to $9 million on the mostly federally-funded program. An estimated 1,600 families including 2,700 children lost their benefits immediately. The number of people losing benefits should increase each year. Several lawmakers — including Rim Country’s representatives in the Legislature — also continue to press a lawsuit that would force the state to pull out of the Affordable Care Act, including KidsCare. If that lawsuit succeeds, 300,000 residents could lose their health care coverage through either the Affordable Care Act or the expansion of AHCCCS that federal legislation supported.

Preschool options dwindling in Payson From page 1 First Things First helps both centers and parents pay for early education. First Things First Vice President Liz Barker said that in the Payson area three preschools/day care centers receive help. “First Things First funds a number of strategies aimed at

helping young children arrive at kindergarten healthy and ready to succeed,” she said. “Quality First partners with child care and preschool providers to improve the quality of their early learning programs. “For centers that achieve the quality ratings, a limited number of scholarships also are provided to help more children access high quality early

learning.” Barker said that FTF has partnered with school districts in Young, Globe and Miami to expand their preschool options. Those grants only fund the initial start up, not the ongoing costs of running the preschool. Due to high costs, Barker said districts have not decided to expand. “It is my understanding that

there have been prior conversations with administrators in the Payson area, however, since the districts have faced funding challenges, they have not been able to commit to the ongoing costs,” she said. Barker did say that First Things First continues to have ongoing conversations to expand pre-school options for parents.

What do we do about Tia’s terrible fall?

• Aug. 16, 1896: While salmon fishing in Canada’s Yukon Territory, George Carmack reportedly spots nuggets of gold in a creek bed. His lucky discovery sparked “Klondike Fever,” the last great gold rush in the American West. • Aug. 17, 1915: Charles F. Kettering, co-founder of Dayton Engineering Laboratories Company (DELCO), is issued a U.S. patent for his “engine-starting device” — the first electric ignition mechanism for automobiles. Prior to his invention, drivers had to use iron hand cranks to start their engines. • Aug. 15, 1961: Two days after sealing off free passage between East and West Berlin, East German authorities begin building the Berlin Wall to permanently close off access to the West. For the next 28 years, the heavily fortified Berlin Wall stood as the most tangible symbol of the Cold War.

She nearly beat it — the addiction, the despair, the spiral of destruction. Tia Cheri Nottingham went to prison in 2004 for selling drugs. Inside, she cleaned up. She fought her addiction. She resolved to restart her life. And when she got out, she got a job as a drug counselor. She kept clean, she helped others, she offered hope to people lost in the pit — where sunlight’s just a memory. She worked to save people from that dark path between 2009 to 2014 at a Payson drug counseling and rehab operation. So she offered a glimmer of good news amidst the bleak tidings from the front lines of the drug war — which accounts for about half of the people we send to prison, wrecks lives, kills children and shreds the fabric of society. But Tia’s hopeful story turned dark. Her marriage fell apart in 2014. And she fell back into that pit. During a traffic stop in 2015, an officer smelled meth, called in a dog and found meth that came from either Tia or her boyfriend. In 2016, during another traffic stop, an officer again suspected drug use. The drug-sniffing dog found drug works in the car and a meth pipe in her pocket. Then in a second traffic stop in 2016, with a warrant out for her arrest, officers found meth in her purse. Last week, a Gila County Superior Court judge sentenced her to nearly eight years in prison for possession of meth and transportation of meth for sale. The probation officer called the case of Tia Cheri Nottingham “truly heartbreaking.” He’s right, tragically right. So will sending her to prison for eight years at a cost of about $40,000 annually to taxpayers either save Tia or keep us safe? Could we do something that would work better with that $320,000 and eight years of a woman’s life? Without a doubt. Make no mistake, drugs remain a terrible scourge. Don’t stop at the illegal drugs like meth and cocaine and pot. Alcohol does far more damage than any of them, as measured by the fatal highway crashes, domestic violence cases and early deaths. Cigarettes also do far more harm than the illegal drugs, measured by the years of life lost. No doubt about it — the elimination of drugs legal and illegal would confer an enormous blessing on this nation. We wish we could get rid of the lot of them. But wishes make a poor foundation for public policy. Lord knows, we’ve given judgment, savage punishment and long prison terms a good try. The U.S. Department of Justice reports that some 2.1 million Americans are in prison, which works out to 737 prisoners per 100,000 population. Drug offenses account for about half of those prisoners. Only Russia comes close to our incarceration rate at about 615 per 100,000. The U.S. and Russia account for half of the world’s 9 million prisoners. Canada’s incarceration rate is about 106 per 100,000, Finland’s is 57, Iran’s is 290, Australia’s is 152. The U.S. has another roughly 1 million people on parole — a third of them under continuing supervision for drug offenses. We have another 4 million people on probation for drug offenses. Even so, if prison could solve the problem of addiction and drug abuse it would be worth it. But most studies of the question suggest that community-based treatment for addiction and various diversion programs have a much better chance of interrupting the spiral of addiction — and the enormous damage it does to all the innocent bystanders. One study by the Justice Policy Institute found that community treatment costs $20,000 less per person per year, but has a much bigger impact in reducing future addiction and crime. The 2010 study found that $1 spent on community-based drug treatment yielded $18 in cost savings in the criminal justice system. By contrast, $1 spent on locking up addicts yielded 37 cents in savings. So what conclusion can we draw from the tragedy of Tia Cheri Nottingham? Shall we conclude that it’s hopeless — addicts will always relapse so we should write them off? Shall we conclude the pit always awaits and we must do more? Alas, no easy answer awaits, no pat happy ending. But one thing seems clear. Sending her back to prison for another eight years at the cost of another $320,000 will only hide the problem away. It will only waste more of our treasure and squander another broken life. Sometimes, despite all your effort, you find yourself standing in the bottom of that pit. The first rule then is to stop digging. Between 2000 and 2008, Arizona’s population rose 29 percent and the prison population rose 48 percent. So perhaps it’s time for Arizona to at least stop digging.

Rude, obnoxious drivers Editor: Guess what? You don’t have to go to the Valley to find rude and obnoxious drivers. They are here and alive in Payson. It seems that almost every day you can see them running red lights, ignoring stop signs and speeding. They used to use the “California Stop,” but even that has gone by the wayside. So sad that everyone has to be in such a hurry that they can’t observe the traffic rules. Not everyone has a pregnant lady in the car on the way to the hospital. Come on people, let’s slow down and enjoy the ride. Clair Wall

Trails deteriorating Editor: It was a beautiful Saturday morning so I took an early horseback ride on the trail that runs from the end of Phoenix Street. About a half mile in I ran into some confused hikers, a trail marker pointed toward a wide track that headed up a steep hill, so they understandably thought that was the trail. I was able to tell them that it was not, and did not go anywhere, having been made by off-road vehicles as so many routes on our trails now are. The trails around Payson have all deteriorated since the Payson Area Trails System committee was disbanded about eight years ago. PATS volunteers worked very hard under Forest Service direction to improve and mark existing trails, and form a plan for future trails that would connect all parts of Payson with the outlying recreational lands. But in the ensuing years most of the trails have disintegrated at an alarming level. Meanwhile many alternate wide ATV “trails” have come into use, further confusing users as to where to hike, bike and ride. And these wide tracks have caused massive erosion to designated trails and the forest in general. I am not opposed to more trails being made, but so as not to further degrade our forest it would be better to have well engineered single track trails added, such as the bicycle community is proposing. These

do not tend to destroy and erode what is already there. The Forest Service does not have the time or money to increase the number of non-motorized trails, yet there are hundreds of residents out there who would gladly volunteer. I would like to see the next mayor of Payson take a look at the type of citizen committees that were formed under Bob Edwards’ leadership, and to see what would work for our town now. These committees saved the town a lot of money, and more importantly, they got the job done! Joanne Bergman

Move county seat Editor: Since this is an election year, I have one question for those individuals currently running for office. Why is the Gila County seat in Globe? And why not vote to move it to Payson? Payson has roughly twice the population and surely can vote to make the change, then Payson and its residents will have more access to county services and will have county employees living in Payson who will contribute to the local economy, I can’t imagine that this change would not be welcome by Payson residents and the county. Mel Comstock

Voting for Hughes Editor: I will admit my bias up front. I am voting for Michael Hughes as mayor of Payson. He has been a member of Ponderosa Bible Church almost as long as I have served as its pastor, and has helped us tremendously in the areas of financing and planning. In addition, he serves as a board member of Grace Works Global, our evangelistic and humanitarian outreach to the world. So, yes, I am biased. I was prepared to write this (letter) with no bias toward his opponent because I did not know Craig Swartwood and had nothing negative to say. While I still don’t want to be negative, having read the positions of both men in the Roundup, I can see I have excellent reasons to vote for Michael rather

than Craig. I have personally watched Michael struggle through the financial catastrophe that seemed to be looming over Payson. It was his conservative values and wisdom that helped make our town financially viable again. Without that, we would not even be able to talk about the future. I also know him well enough to know that if he doesn’t have the answer for a problem he will diligently research the issue and think through the options to come up with a solution that works. He has great ideas for the future of our town, but he tempers idealism with wisdom. I am quite sure Mr. Swartwood is a wonderful man. However, by his own admission, he seems to believe that if he gripes enough about the town, he should be elected to run things. After over 40 years of working with people, I listen carefully to those who gripe, but I don’t put them in positions of leadership. Dr. Joe Falkner

No incumbents Editor: I agree with Richard K. Meszar, Ed.D.’s letter in Friday, Aug. 5 edition. I only wish I had written it because it expresses my opinion exactly. No incumbents! I also wonder how we ended up with either a narcissistic buffoon or a champion liar as our next president. Dear God help us. Lorna Tegarden

Vote for Evans Editor: We have a rare opportunity to get better, much better representation for our Rim Country. Whether you have been a fan of Kenny Evans or not, Vote for Kenny Evans for supervisor. For the first time for years we can have two of the three supervisors from our area. The deck has been stacked for the benefit of Globe and (southern) Gila County long enough. Again I urge you, vote Kenny Evans, county supervisor. Bob McQueen

Trails in Northern Gila County will see more than $100,000 in improvements thanks to grants from the Arizona State Parks. The ASP administers the federal Recreational Trails Program and the state Off-Highway Vehicle Recreation Fund. Last month it made $3.1 million in grant awards to projects around the state. Two of those went to projects in the Rim Country. • The Pine Strawberry Fuel Reduction, Inc. won a $31,232 grant from the Recreational Trails Program to make improvements to the Pine Trailhead located in the Tonto National Forest. The project will complete the Pine Loop Trail moving a section of the trail to a more sustainable area. New signage will be located along the trail and at the trailhead. An interpretive Firewise garden display, showcasing both Firewise plants and wildfire prevention will be constructed. A new trail map will also be funded with this grant. The PSFR group will be working closely with the Tonto National Forest with this project. • The Arizona Trail Association is receiving $80,000 from the Recreational Trails Program to restore and upgrade the Colonel Devin Trail 290 north of the Washington Park Trailhead. Work will include constructing two footbridges to accommodate cyclists and equestrians to keep them out of a stream. The project will also close a short section of a severely eroded social trail while making improvements to a neglected section of the Highline Trail. The funding will also provide signage and a kiosk for this trail. The Rim Country projects are among the 29 trail-related efforts awarded funds on July 20. Three volunteer advisory committees consisting of non-motorized trail experts, motorized recreation specialists and outdoor recreation professionals reviewed the projects and made the award recommendations.

Supervisor Pastor faces primary challenge by

Michele Nelson

roundup staff reporter

Supervisor Mike Pastor faces longtime challenger Tim Humphrey for the District 2 seat in the primary. Pastor has served as Gila County supervisor for the last eight years. His proudest accomplishment has been to keep the county property tax rate consistent. This despite the recession and a state Legislature intent on shifting more and more costs to the counties. “(We did this) without compromising our service level to the taxpayers of the county,” said Pastor. Tim Humphrey has challenged Pastor for the last couple of elections. He has run a construction company in Globe for the last 18 years. At a recent candidate forum with the Rim Country Regional Chamber of Commerce, Humphrey said he believes his experience making good decisions for his company can be applied to a position as supervisor. “As a supervisor, either it’s good for the constituents or it’s not good. Who’s involved doesn’t matter,” he said. Pastor was raised in Miami and worked in the local mines for 35 years, after serving in the Army during the Vietnam War. He said he originally decided to run his first term because he felt his experience would serve him well as a supervisor. “I was convinced the skills and training I had acquired during my working career in private industry would lend valuable application as a public servant,” said Pastor. The voters have agreed he does a good job, since they have elected him twice. If he wins this election, it will be his third term. He also believes in the personal touch. Pastor often shows up to important meetings for his constituents. He recently attended a meeting at the Tonto Basin School District to hear his constituents’ concerns over the proposed increase in property taxes. A couple of years ago, he along with Supervisors Tommie Martin and John Marcanti, drove to Pine to run meetings when the Pine-Strawberry Water Improvement District board did not have enough board members to manage the district after a massive resignation of the board.

Gila County Supervisor Mike Pastor faces a challenge from Globe businessman Tim Humphrey in a district anchored in south county that includes much of the Tonto Basin in North County. Along with serving as supervisor, Pastor sits on the Correctional Officers Retirement Plan board, the Gila County Board of Health, the Central Arizona Governments Regional Council, and the Cobre Valley Community Transit System. Pastor admits it took him awhile to get a degree, but he persevered and graduated from Northern Arizona University in 1996 with a degree in elementary education. He has since followed up that degree with graduate work at the University of

Phoenix. His commitment to education follows him into his supervisor’s position. “(I) support educational opportunities for our youth, and continue to support workforce development opportunities for adults,” he said. “(I) also support mining, ranching, health care, small and new business development. (All) which should have a positive effect on economic development in our county.” If elected again, Pastor plans on continuing his level of

constituent care. “(I will) continue to be available as a full-time supervisor for my constituents, as well as all the taxpayers of our county,” he said. “(I will) continue to maintain the confidence of my constituency by understanding the challenges they face in their respective neighborhoods.” Humphrey could not be reached for comment for this article, but when he spoke at the chamber of commerce, he listed the other organizations he volunteers for as a board member: the Industrial Development Authority for Gila County, the Globe-Miami Chamber of Commerce and the Boys and Girls Club.

Once again Payson finds itself in a new league looking for the answer to the same old question — how to compete with rivals Show Low, Snowflake and Lakeside Blue Ridge? The Longhorns figured out part of the answer a year ago when they ended years of frustration against Blue Ridge. But the struggles against the mighty Cougars and Lobos continued in an injury-plagued 6-5 campaign. They’ll get another chance to turn the tables on all three once again this fall in the newly formed Class 3A East Region, which is very similar to the old 3A East Region the AIA scuttled several years ago. Along with their three traditional rivals, they’ll also compete against Holbrook and Winslow in the region. The season kicks off early this year with a game at home against Safford at 7 p.m. this Friday. Jake Swartwood has been trying to start the season a week early since he took over before the 2012 season so he could give his kids a week without a game prior to opening the challenging region

Shane Law, shown here making one of his two interceptions against Flagstaff last season, is part of a deep and talented secondary that should get its share of picks this season. Keith Morris/Roundup

Jake Swartwood begins his fifth season as head coach with an optimistic view of his team’s chances.

schedule halfway through the slate. He finally got that this year. His players will get an extra week to prepare for the Sept. 30 East opener against visiting Show Low. And a week to recover from injuries. Staying healthy can be difficult for small school teams like Payson, which has a roster this year with only a combined 32 varsity and JV players. Injuries proved a major obstacle a year ago as many key players spent several weeks on the sideline. That did, however, give youngsters plenty of opportunities to gain experience. And Swartwood is counting on that to pay dividends this season. Among those who gained a lot of playing time because of injury were strong safety DiAndre Terry and cornerback Cameron Ross and safety Shane Law. They, along with shutdown corner Angel Jacquez, lead a quartet that should make the Longhorns’ secondary a no-fly zone for opposing passing attacks. “Defensively, our secondary’s probably our strength at this time,” Swartwood said. “We’re returning a lot of guys. “Cameron has started at cornerback since his sophomore year and we feel really secure on that side of the field. And Angel is on the other side and he is a phenomenal cornerback when he’s in. He’s dealing with back spasms, so we’re just trying to get him healthy. “And we’ve got one of our most athletic kids at strong safety in DiAndre. He is probably our defensive leader with Korben White and Trey Glasscock right now.” White leads the linebackers and Glasscock is back to terrorize quarterbacks and offensive linemen at defensive end. Both White and Glasscock also lead an offense that could be explosive. They lead a veteran offensive line featuring three returning starters and another who saw extended duty.

Korben White is one of the Longhorns’ senior leaders this fall.

His sophomore brother Brock moves up after starting there on the JV team and he’s battling senior Ryan Ricke for the starting job. Whomever starts will benefit from a talented group of running backs and receivers. The speedy J.T. Dolinich and Law and the hard-hitting Wyatt Taylor should get a majority of the carries. The passing attack should greatly improve after the Longhorns threw for only three touchdowns a year ago. Look for Terry, Law, Jacquez and tight end Dailin Keith to be targeted often.

Swartwood expects the defense to give the offense opportunities to succeed and vice versa. “We’re relying on our defense to keep people three-and-out and giving the ball to our offense and allowing it to have a good sustained drive that takes time off the clock,” he said.

Continuity of coaching staff a big plus for Longhorns by

Keith Morris

roundup sports editor

High school football teams need continuity and consistency in their coaching staffs from year to year to be successful. Turnover in the coaching ranks can disrupt everything, especially if the philosophy changes. A kid who’s learned how to do things one way for two or three years can’t be expected to learn a new system overnight. That’s not a concern for Payson High as most of its staff has been intact for several years now. Jake Swartwood returns for his fifth season as head coach. He enters the year with a 21-22 record, three playoff appearances in four years and just one losing season in that period. “Our staff is pretty much a carryover from what we’ve had in years past,” Swartwood said. “I’m really happy with where our coaching staff is.” Chris Taylor is back for his third season as the defensive coordinator. “It’s been good to keep the con-

sistency there, continuing the same defensive schemes,” Swartwood said. The one big change is the departure of offensive coordinator Carl Curtis, who left to become the girls basketball coach at Gilbert Perry. “I was really happy to have Coach Curtis here for as long as he was,” Swartwood said. “He did a great job supporting our boys and bringing in new stuff to us and kind of improving our program.” Swartwood and Colin White will share the O.C. job. White is one of two additions to the staff this season. He served as a junior varsity offensive coordinator at a large school in Texas for many years, according to Swartwood. “He’s real comfortable running the same kind of offense that we run; it’s exactly what he’s ran in the past,” Swartwood said. The other addition is 2009 Payson High graduate Bryan Burke, who’ll take over coaching the offensive and defensive lines. Burke, also the weight training teacher, helped lead the Longhorns to the 2008 state champi-

onship as a defensive lineman and was selected first team all-state twice. He went on to play two years at Scottsdale Community College and two years at South Dakota State. He’ll also serve as Payson’s head wrestling coach. He coached the defensive line at Gilbert Campo Verde two years ago and was the line coach at Peoria Liberty last season. “I did the lines the last two years,” Swartwood said. “He’s going to take that role from me and be our main line coach. He’s better at it so he needs to be there, doing that. He’s also taken over our defensive line duties.” Miles Huff returns for his sixth season coaching the defensive backs and receivers. “What Miles does is huge for us,” Swartwood said. Joe Perone returns to help with the special teams. Denver White returns for his fifth season as the junior varsity head coach. He was recently hired as the school’s new boys basketball head coach. “We’re so happy to have him back

Chris Taylor returns for his third season as the defensive coordinator. again,” Swartwood said. Terrance Readus also returns to the staff and takes over as the freshman team’s head coach. Ben Kreiger is back to assist him, along with another new coach, Steve Fernandez, whom Swartwood called “kind of a kid magnet.” Fernandez has helped out with

the baseball program. The three freshman team coaches will provide assistance for White with the JV coaching. And all the lower level coaches help at the varsity level. “They all have a role on Friday nights,” Swartwood said.

‘Heartbreaking’ relapse in drug case

hiding a meth pipe. In March 2016, an Arizona Department of Public Safety officer stopped Nottingham for a traffic violation. A drug-sniffing dog again signaled the presence of drugs. Officers found drug paraphernalia in the vehicle and a meth pipe in Nottingham’s pants pocket. Finally, in May 2016, officers stopped Nottingham and found she had a warrant out for her arrest. She admitted she had meth in her purse. Officers found 1.3 grams of meth in the bag. In a statement to the court, Nottingham said, “My acts were unacceptable and I’m very sorry about everything that I not only

put my family through, but the courts.” She did not say anything at the time of sentencing. Nottingham worked at Community Bridges as peer support specialist from 2009 to 2014 and at Southwest Behavioral as a health technician from December 2014 to February 2015. After her release from prison, she relapsed in 2014 after her divorce. She completed an inpatient treatment in August 2015 and maintained her recovery until January 2016 when her boyfriend was sentenced to prison, according to the pre-sentence report. “Ms. Nottingham was known to probation as one to advocate for those in need of intervention and was (a) key factor in coor-

dinating care, empowering and supporting those through their recovery,” probation wrote. “It is truly heartbreaking that one who has given back to society could quickly revert into antisocial, deviant behaviors as evidenced in these cases.” Nottingham’s lawyer Michael Bernays said he has worked with Nottingham for some time and believes she’ll become a law-abiding citizen if she can beat her addiction. He said he hopes she gains the tools and knowledge to stay clean while in prison. Scales sentenced Nottingham to 5 years for transportation of meth for sale and 2.75 years for possession of meth, to be served consecutively. He also sentenced her to 24 months probation.

Tonto Basin gas snafu worries drivers From page 1 “We’ve done like six vehicles,” said Sean Mears, the owner of the shop. “I haven’t seen any that have any damage. We just had to drain the fuel and replace it with diesel.” One customer reported the

cost of fixing the car came in under $200. The Department of Weights and Measures under the Arizona Agricultural Department monitors the quality and quantity of gas stations. Michelle Wilson, the associate director for the weights and

measures division, said that when the department receives a call or complaint, it sends out an inspector. “We look at the documentation ... at the pump,” she said. “Usually there is paperwork about the problem.” Wilson said that her agen-

cy does not get involved with retrieving money for people, but its investigation can help bolster insurance claims made by customers. “We strongly encourage people to give us a call,” she said. To contact Weights and Measures, call 602-771-4920.

Ronald leaves his wife of 33 years, Sandi Hegenderfer; his brother Donald, spouse Janet; his sons Andy, spouse Debbie, Allen spouse Joanne; his daughters Peggy Busby and Ronda Fasnacht; step-sons Mark McWorthy and Robert McWorthy and his grandchildren Christy, Crystal, Chandra, spouse Jeremy, Ronnie, Larry, Joshua, spouse Kayla, Janae, spouse William, Jeff Jr., Suzie, Tunisia: his 12 great grandchildren. Proceeded by parents Ray and Florence, close friends and family; Jack, Daphne and Jim. Ron was born in Ohio and then as a kid moved to Phoenix Arizona. He attended Sunnyslope High School and in 1954 Ron had the idea to put the “S” on Sunnyslope Mountain. Ron brought the idea to his principal and

raised the money and received all of the approval so that he and fellow classmates then painted the original “S” in 1954 that is still maintained and is considered a historic landmark. He came to the rim located in Payson, Arizona with his wife Sandi and they became the hardworking and dedicated owners of Mountain Meadows cabins and they were fortunate enough to spend their life together in Rim Country for 23 years. He loved to be among the beautiful meadows, fishing, and watching the elk. A funeral service is being held August 27th at the Messinger funeral home in Payson, AZ at 2 p.m. and is open to friends and family. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hospice Compassus in Payson, AZ.

COPD – lung cancer’s deadly running mate by

Teresa McQuerrey

roundup staff reporter

Lung cancer is the better known of the killer conditions that can result from smoking, but it has an equally deadly running mate — COPD, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The American Lung Association says lung cancer is the most common cancer across the globe, accounting for roughly 1.8 million new cases each year. Although more men than women are diagnosed with lung cancer each year, more women live with the disease. COPD is suffered by 6.3 percent of the U.S. population — that’s 16 million. More women than men are now being diagnosed with it and consequently the number of COPD deaths in women is increasing sharply. States with the highest incidents of COPD include Kentucky, with 10.4 percent of adults identified as suffering from COPD; 9.7 percent in Alabama; 9.5 in West Virginia. The annual cost to the nation for COPD is approximately $30.4 billion. About 6.8 percent of Arizona’s adult population has COPD, as of 2013, according to information presented at a recent Lunch & Learn program at Banner High Country Seniors. Dr. Larry Spratling, MD, FCCP, and chief medical officer for Banner Payson Medical Center, made the presentation. Spratling is also a pulmonologist. He explained COPD is a condition in which the lungs have become permanently altered; the airways of the lungs are constantly narrowed; and chronic inflammation creates difficulty breathing. It is the fourth leading cause of death in the U.S. COPD includes chronic bronchitis, suffered by 14 million in the U.S.; emphysema, there are 2 million cases in the U.S.; and asthma. However, not all asthma is COPD. Spratling explained that with asthma there is more intermittent airflow obstruction; improvement in airway obstruction is possible with bronchodilators and steroids. With non-COPD

asthma, cellular inflammation has more causes and there is broad inflammatory mediator response. Additionally there is airway remodeling. Asthma associated with COPD has progressively worsening airflow obstruction; it often presents in patients 60 or older; there is more permanent airflow obstruction and less reversibility and less normalization of airflow obstruction. While cellular inflammation with COPD asthma, emphysema is frequently found.

le, which is abnormal enlargement of the right side of the heart as a result of disease of the lungs or the pulmonary blood vessels, a condition that causes the right side of the heart to fail and results in long-term high blood pressure in the arteries of the lung and right ventricle of the heart. Treatment

The causes and results Cigarette smoking causes about 80 to 90 percent of all COPD cases. Occupational exposure to certain industrial pollutants is responsible for approximately 20 percent of cases. Additional causes: second-hand smoke, air pollution and occupational irritants. Not only does COPD narrow airways, it causes inflammation and mucous production. The resulting symptoms can be: a cough, with or without mucous; fatigue; frequent respiratory infections; shortness of breath; wheezing. When we smoke, harmful particles become trapped in the air sacs of our lungs (alveoli) and this triggers an inflammatory response. The chemicals our bodies produce during inflammation dissolve the thin walls between the air sacs. Without the walls, a large air cavity is created and becomes lined with carbon deposits — this results in emphysema. Additionally, the exchange of “good” and “wasted” air takes place in the air sacs. When the air sacs are damaged, air exchange becomes difficult. We are inhaling a lot more than smoke when we have a cigarette and it can all trigger an inflammatory response. Spratling illustrated what goes into a single cigarette: butane in lighter fluid; acetic acid from vinegar; cadmium, the same stuff used in batteries; arsenic; stearic acid, which is found in candle wax; hexamine, carbon monoxide; found in barbecue

Bronchitis is an inflammation of the inner lining of bronchi — the tubes leading to the air sacs in the lungs. With COPD, these tubes become inflamed and swollen, collecting thick, sticky mucus and slowing the intake and exhaling of air. Emphysema is a long-term destruction of the lungs over time as air sacs

break down, and it is irreversible. The combination of emphysema and chronic bronchitis with COPD creates a chronic airflow limitation. This in turn can result in: becoming easily fatigued, having more respiratory infection, the use of accessory muscles to breathe, orthopneic (the individual must use extra pillows to be propped up in bed to sleep); wheezing; pursed-lip breathing; chronic cough; barrel chest; difficulty in breathing; prolonged expiratory time; increased sputum; digital clubbing; cor pulmona-

While COPD is not reversible, its progression can be slowed. Spratling outlined treatment objectives: slow the accelerated decline in lung function; relieve symptoms; improve daily function; decrease exacerbations (acute exacerbation of COPD, also known as acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (AECB), is a sudden worsening of COPD symptoms — shortness of breath, quantity and color of phlegm — that typically lasts for several days. It may be triggered by an infection with bacteria or viruses or by environmental pollutants. A number of medications are available to treat COPD and often bronchodilators are part of the plan to serve as rescue medication as needed. The first line of defense in treatment is self-management education and smoking cessation; followed by bronchodilators; then inhaled corticosteroids; pulmonary rehabilitation; use of oxygen (having a tank of oxygen — inhaled through tubing — supplementing the natural air supply) and eventually surgery if it is warranted. COPD is a long-term illness and it worsens quickly with smoking; it can cause arrhythmias, pneumonia and osteoporosis. Spratling closed his presentation with the following: • Smoking is the primary (but not exclusive) cause of COPD • Susceptibility to the effects of tobacco smoke varies • The disease is progressive; only the rate of decline varies • Treatment improves symptoms and airflow, but does not stop progression of the disease • The time to stop smoking is now.

Get acquainted with the facts about lung cancer One of the more prolific and leading causes of cancer-related deaths among both men and women, lung cancer continues to affect the lives of millions of people each year. The American Lung Association says lung cancer is the most common cancer across the globe, accounting for roughly 1.8 million new cases each year. Although more men than women are diagnosed with lung cancer each year, more women live with the disease. The rates of lung cancer diagnoses in women have risen 98 percent

over the past 37 years. Despite the prevalence of lung cancer, some people remain in the dark about the particulars of this potentially deadly disease. Misinformation may also lead some to believe they are safer than they truly are. The following are some lung cancer statistics that may help men and women gain a better understanding of this deadly yet often preventable disease. • Lung cancer claims more lives than breast, prostate and colon cancer combined, says

the American Cancer Society. • Survival rates among other cancers are higher than those of lung cancer. The five-year-survival rate of lung cancer is only 16.8 percent, compared to 89.2 percent for breast cancer. • The National Cancer Institute says black men and women are more likely to develop and die from lung cancer than any other racial or ethnic group. The lung cancer incidence rate for black women is roughly equal to that of white women, despite the fact that black women smoke fewer cig-

Lung cancer goes beyond the obvious connection to smoking, as the disease can even affect people who don’t smoke. arettes. • Lung cancer is not exclusive to smokers. The ACS says almost 80 percent of new lung cancer cases occur in former smokers or people who have never smoked. Current smokers account for 20 percent of lung cancer cases. • According to the Mary Horrigan Connors Center for Women’s Health and Gender Biology of Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Harvard Medical School, lung cancer is among the least funded cancers in terms of research

dollars per death. • Lung cancer patients are routinely blamed for their condition, even though many cases of lung cancer are beyond their control — as is the case with non-smoking-related lung cancer. Radon causes around 10 percent of lung cancer cases and occupational exposure to carcinogens around another 10 to 15 percent, says the American Lung Association. • Lung cancer may not produce early symptoms, but a cough that will not go away or chest pain may indicate the

presence of the disease. • Early detection of lung cancer is crucial to survival. Receiving treatment as early as possible can lower the risks associated with the disease, including its likeliness to spread to other organs. Lung cancer remains a very serious threat. However, arming people with information can help those who may be at risk identify the ways to stay healthy and get the help or treatment they need.

Effective ways to reduce asthma attacks Asthma is one of three conditions that are considered a Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The other two are emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Millions of people — 25.9 million in the United States alone — have asthma, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. Asthma has become increasingly prevalent in all sex, age and racial groups since the early 1980s. It is one of the most common and costly diseases, and still has no cure. Swelling of the airways occurs when a person has asthma. This can result in wheezing, coughing and tightness in the chest. For those who cannot find relief, asthma attacks can prove deadly. Although there is no way to prevent asthma, by following a plan, there are ways to lessen the frequency and severity of attacks. Most of these tips involve reducing contact with allergens that can trigger asthma attacks. Home First, assess your house to identify and reduce common allergens. • Wash linens and clothing in hot water to kill off any dust mites. The water temperature should be at least 130 degrees. • If pets trigger a reaction, keep companion animals off of furniture and beds where they can leave fur and dander behind. Limit the rooms in which pets can stay. There is some research that states children exposed to animals early in life may actually be less likely to develop allergies and asthma. • Put allergy-proof covers on pillows. • Vacuum at least twice a week with a HEPA air filter-enhanced vacuum cleaner. • Reduce humidity around the house, as it can lead to the prevalence of mold. Mold is a common asthma trigger. That means using a dehumidifier, keeping bathrooms clean and dry and repairing any leaks promptly. • Insist that people who

smoke tobacco products do so outside of the house. Secondhand smoke has been shown to increase the development of asthma and other chronic respiratory illnesses, says the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. Outside, work and school You may have less control over allergens outside of the home, but there are still ways to cut down on attacks. • Avoid smoking areas outside of stores and office buildings.

• Know the office cleaning schedule and work around those hours. In some instances, cleaning products and other chemicals can trigger attacks. • Keep stress at a minimum because intense emotions can bring on asthma symptoms, according to Paul Ehrlich, M.D., coauthor of “Asthma Allergies Children: A Parent’s Guide.” • Check the air quality outdoors before venturing outside. Stay inside during ozone alerts or when the air is very humid or stagnant. • Seasonal allergies and asthma often go hand-in-hand. Check pollen, mold and ragweed counts. Stay indoors on peak days. • Be sure physical education teachers are aware that gym class may trigger asthma attacks in your children, and that they should look for apparent symptoms. In addition to these tips, a rescue inhaler can help quiet a potential attack. Keep medication available at all times. Plus, speak with a doctor about customizing an attack prevention plan even further. More information is available at www. aaaai.org.
