“EarthWind and Fire – Class Acts” Exhibition opens at Renaissance Gallery The exhibition “Earth Wind and Fire – Class Acts” opened with a reception on Sunday March 10, 2013 at the Renaissance Gallery. The exhibit features the work of Leona Mackey, Vernon Howell and Rabert Fulks – each a retired local art instructor, and each an award winning artist producing unique and original work. Pieces by these exceptional, local artists are consistently found in open or juried shows in the Tri-State region and in the State of West Virginia. One or two pieces in such a show however, often leave the viewer wishing for more. This exhibit offers the opportunity for a broader view of their work either over time or through the use of a variety of media. Leona Mackey, a long time

MILTON - Silky-smooth, harmonious epiphanies saturated more than 1,000 people March 2. The undeniable unity of Ernie Haase and Signature Sound produced a heavenly sound of hope. The tenor, baritone, lead and bass sounds of Ernie Haase, Devin McGlamery, Doug Anderson and Paul Harkey flowed like the ocean: drawing people in with the message they sung out. “We’re a team that uses harmony to put out a great message,” said Anderson. “Our music is about hope, forgiveness and love.”

When McGlamery heard Haase’ sound, he was hooked. “When these guys started, I knew that was where I wanted to be,” he said. “I’m living out a dream.” To Harkey, the music he creates is more than a sound: it’s life-changing power. The bass man looked toward the Milton auditorium. “I like to watch people’s faces,” said Harkey. “To see them come

It all started with a simple idea. “My mom made countertops, and she saw how people flattened bottles, so she bought a kiln and went from there,” explained Lindsay Baldwin, glass artist. Owner Cathy Daniel described the inspiration behind the business. “We made concrete and glass countertops, and used glass, and as we did that, we saw more uses SEE GLASS ON PAGE 9

PSC Earmarks $250,000 to assist Low Income Electricity Customers In March 2012, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and Constellation Energy Commodities Group entered into a Stipulation and Consent Agreement (Consent Agreement) which resolved a FERC investigation of Constellation manipulating the New York wholesale power market from September 2007 to December 2008. As part of the settlement, Constellation agreed to pay a civil penalty of $245 million, which included creating a fund to benefit electric customers in the affected regions, including West Virginia. Today, the Public Service Commission of West Virginia announced it has earmarked its share of this one-time payment of nearly $250,000 to provide assistance to low income electric
customers in West Virginia. The Public Service Commission proposed, and the FERC approved, a plan to designate the Commission’s portion of the money to the Dollar Energy Fund, Inc., which will distribute the funds through its West Virginia Utility Assistance Program. Each year thousands of West Virginians benefit from the Utility Assistance Program. During the 2011-2012 program year, 36,349 electric customers in West Virginia received more than $7 million in bill payment assistance, an average of $112.06 per customer. The recently earmarked funds will continue to benefit low-income West Virginians struggling to keep their electricity on.
“Children & Fire-setting” The following information is provided by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). On average from 2005-2009, over 56,000 fires were reported by United States municipal fire departments from children playing with fire. Fires set by children is a growing problem that needs the attention of teachers, parents, counselors, and community leaders. An estimated 110 civilian deaths, 880 civilian injuries, and $286 million in property damage were caused from fires started by children playing. Structure fires accounted for 22% of fires, but 98% of civilian deaths, and 93% of property damage. Outside fires accounted for 75% of the fires and 2% for vehicle fires. An alarming 66% occurred in or around residential properties. Why Do Children Set Fires? There are two types of fire-setters: - Curiosity Fire-setters - Problem Fire-setters In order to understand why children set fires, it is important to know the difference in the two types of fire-setters. Curiosity Fire-setters: Range from ages two to seven years old. Have a fascination with fire that will cause them to play with fire to see how it burns, what it feels like, and what it does. Curiosity is normal during a child’s growth and development.
However, adults should take a child’s playing with fire very seriously. It is a matter of life and death. Problem Fire-setters: Usually range from ages five to seventeen years old. Exhibit a severe fire-setting problem beyond curiosity. Light fires due to mild to severe emotional or mental distress. Examples that could trigger the behavior are: moving to a new area, suffering various types of abuse, divorce, or death in the family. Problem fire-setters can exhibit additional negative behaviors such as cruelty to animals, poor relationships with other children, stealing, bullying or extreme mood changes. What Can YOU Do? Teach your child about the dangers of fire, and that fire is a tool for grown-ups only. As a family, get to know your local fire department and teach your child about the dangers to the men and women who have to respond to fires. Control your child’s access to fire by keeping lighters or matches put up. Set a good example by keeping a fire-safe home and modeling safe behaviors. Teach your child that everyone needs to take responsibility for fire safety! Websites to visit for more information: www.usfa.fema.gov; www.nfpa.org; www.safekids.org.

Christin’s Corner By Christin Daugherty Dear Readers, Once again I would like to thank you for the overwhelming response from last week’s discussion. Drug abuse and addiction are not only serious, but also alltoo-common within our community. Your advice and support are greatly appreciated. My friend has a tough road ahead of her, regardless of her decision to stay or go, and you all have been a tremendous help. With that being said, I have one more favor to ask before we return to our regularly scheduled column. You may have noticed around town - at places like your local grocery store, gas station, or favorite restaurant - the green shamrocks hanging on the walls. These shamrocks can be purchased for $1, and the proceeds go to the Muscular Dystrophy Association to help fund research and support for those suffering from Muscular Dystrophy and other muscle-related diseases. I, along with others that work in these establishments, have been working diligently to help raise money for this important
cause. More than 50,000 people, in the US alone, are affected by this disease which progressively weakens the muscles that control movement. There are several different forms of this disease, affecting people of all ages. The severity of the disease can vary depending on which type of MD you have. In some cases the symptoms are mild and progress very slowly, while others are more severe and can cause heart-related problems and even death. You see, this charity hits very close to home with me. One of my dearest friends, some might even call him my best friend, is suffering from this disease. He was diagnosed with Becker, one of nine different types of MD, at the age of 21. Now, at the age of 55, he must rely solely on the use of a wheelchair due to his disease’s progression. He says that he realizes that it may be too late for him, but hopefully not too late for future generations if a cure is found. This Saturday, March 16th, is the annual Huntington Muscle
Walk, held by the Muscular Dystrophy Association, at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena from 9:30-11:30a.m. Along with the shamrocks, all proceeds from this event will be used for the research and treatment of MD. I will be there, along with my friend and many others, to help raise funds and awareness, and to pay tribute to those who have lost their lives battling this disease. So, if you’re out this weekend and looking for something to do on Saturday morning, head on over to the Big Sandy Superstore Arena in Huntington and help us make a difference in the lives of others. If you can’t make it on that day, but would still like to help, stop by one of your participating, local stores and purchase a shamrock. It may sound cliché, but you never know if your donation could be the one that helps to save a life. Thank you. For more information on MD or to make a donation, visit mda.org or contact me at christin@theputnamstandard.co m. “It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.” ― Mother Teresa *The opinions of this column are solely the opinions of this individual writer and are not the opinions of the Putnam Standard or Cabell Standard newspapers. *

Statement of U.S. Rep. Nick Rahall on the passing of former Milton Mayor Tommy Harbour: “Though he would shun both titles, Tommy Harbour was one of the true greats of the greatest generation. He came home from war and never stopped serving his neighbors and community. As Mayor, he was a powerhouse, whether it was coming up with practical solutions or jumping up
on his backhoe to get the job done. Tommy's zest for life was second to none and served as constant inspiration to those much his junior. To his dear wife, Betty, and his family, we owe a great thanks for sharing this friend, patriot, leader and great American with all of us.”

Send your poetry to Debra Harmes-Kurth 1042 Pike Street • Milton,WV 25541 Hello Readers! Spring is in the air and Easter is right around the corner. What a wonderful time for all of you writers out there to send in one of those poems you have tucked away in a drawer or a notebook. This column is about you, our local writers; can you think of a better way to highlight our local talent? Don’t be shy or bashful; this is an excellent opportunity to see your poetry in print. Your poem does not have to be perfect, as a matter of fact most poems are not, I know mine aren’t. What makes a good poem is that the writer felt strongly enough about the subject to write about it. When you write a poem you invest yourself into it and that is what makes it special. So, how about sending your poems into the above address, or email them to me at cabellputnampoetry@hotmail.co m. We will be watching for them. Until next time, keep reading and writing. ***** Contemplating Poetry First, I get an idea. Then, put it on paper. Now, do I or do I not make it rhyme? Or, count it out in meter, thus “keep time”. wait, it’s not a song. Maybe it could be? Okay, how many verses of how many lines?
Where to break each? Oh, that is poetry. Definitely. Free verse, not a classic form like couplets or sonnets. Those are a challenge I should consider, too. And don’t forget Haiku! Eleanor Michael, IA ***** The Porcelain Bowl Life is like a porcelain sugar bowl. Give me a silver spoon to taste its sweetness. Its glories in verse I will then extol. Its many praises I will keep repeating. Life’s a porcelain bowl is painted with flowers And small delicate birds and bright green grass, But I will shed tears in great thundershowers If the silver spoon of Life can’t be grasped. O costly, delicate porcelain bowl, I long to taste the sweetness that you hold; But I can’t find the silver spoon and know That soon I shall be in my grave stone cold. So I will reach into Life with my hand And grasp whatever sweetness I can.
Jack Clubb, CA ***** Knitting A Year Like knitting needles without yarn the year begins ready to cast off new situations and unresolved dilemmas as the designs in a developing sweater. Increasing and decreasing emotions move like the hands of a knitter creating with love. Mistakes occur as the knitter rips and the knots of everyday problems eat at us all, causing distress that remains as we fold to despair and dislike. Anger at dropped stitches and quandaries with dear ones block creation that could have been; admitting to weakness and denied faults will help solve dilemmas with those we once loved. Pick up that dropped stitch, place it back in its order. Knitting is relaxing as a loving relationship. Charlotte Ann Zuzak, PA
BAND FROM PAGE 1 in one way and leave another is amazing.” Signature Sound is part of Haase’ vision that began decades ago as a child. The famous tenor remembered the beginning. “I was really young and I remember my dad said, ‘you can be in front of many people and make many happy,’” Haase recalled. “He spoke something into me.” The singer continued, “When you find your voice - it’s not something you do or say - it’s how it reaches people.” Since 2003, the band has won countless awards, including recognition from Dove and Billboard. The ten-year-journey
humbles Haase. “My life has evolved and everything around this calling has evolved…I realize I need God more in every aspect of it,” he said. “I keep running to the Lord, because there is not a pill big enough or a glass deep enough to give you peace.” McGlamery agreed. He knows the band has a bigger job than merely performing. “This is our purpose - the common language we all speak - love, harmony and laughter,” McGlamery explained. “On stage it’s not about dollars, and you can’t operate in a commercial mindset…We think impact.” Moments after the interview, the band prayed and prepared to hit the stage. Before they did, the four men were awed during a performance by a 14-year-old pianist. Timothy Noble opened for the band. The teen-prodigy’s fingers were like lightning on the key-
board. His hands crisscrossed one another while striking audience-silencing notes. After his opening performance, Ernie Haase and Signature Sound hit the stage. The standing-room-only crowd made their presence known. Cheers and claps echoed throughout the Pumpkin Park. The band’s sound truly was signature. It was smooth, synchronized and sweet to the ears. Hundreds left the show encouraged and joyous. This was one of many concerts slated for the Pumpkin Park. The next is Gold City, scheduled 7 p.m. April 20.

Rahall Congratulates United States Military Academy Appointee Kelsie Burns WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Nick Rahall (D-WV) recently announced that Kelsie Burns of Huntington, a senior at Huntington High School who was nominated by Rahall, has received a fully qualified offer of appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point for the 2013-2014 academic year. “It’s a great honor for our young people to be appointed to one of the nation’s service academies,” said Rahall. “The education and leadership skills they gain not only develops fine officers to lead our armed forces, it
shapes their civic and personal character for a lifetime. Kelsie has excelled academically and athletically, and is actively involved in her school and community. I join her family members and many friends in being exceedingly proud that she has received this appointment to West Point, and wish her great success as a cadet and as a future Army officer.” Kelsie was among 13 southern West Virginians nominated by Rahall to the various United States Service Academies this year.
Members of Congress are authorized by law to nominate candidates for appointment to four U.S. service academies – the U.S. Military Academy, the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. These institutions prepare college-age Americans to be officers of the United States uniformed services. Upon graduation, service academy graduates are commissioned as officers in the active or reserve components of the military or merchant marine for a minimum of five years.
West Virginia DNR announces Public Meetings to discuss Proposed Hunting, Trapping and Fishing Regulations SOUTH CHARLESTON – The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources (DNR) will hold 12 public meetings across the state in March to provide hunters, trappers, anglers, landowners and other interested parties an opportunity to review and comment on proposed 2013 hunting regulations for white-tailed deer, wild turkey, black bear and boar, proposed 2014-2015 general hunting and trapping regulations, proposed amphibian and reptile reg-
ulations, and proposed 2014 fishing regulations. These meetings will be held from 6 - 8 p.m. on March 18 and March 19, and the public is encouraged to attend. “The public meetings have been designed to use an ‘Open House’ format,’” said DNR Director Frank Jezioro. “This informal meeting style allows people to attend at their convenience during the scheduled meeting times, learn of proposed regulation changes, discuss these proposals with Wildlife
Resources biologists and Natural Resource Police Officers and comment on the proposed regulations and other wildlife-related issues.” As in the past, written comments from the public on these proposed hunting, trapping and fishing regulations will also be encouraged. Deadline for written comments is April 5, 2013. A local meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 18, 2013 in Milton at the West Virginia Pumpkin Park (Office Building).
Salute to Senior Service West Virginia residents encouraged to nominate outstanding senior volunteers The search is on for West Virginia’s outstanding senior volunteer. The Salute to Senior Service Program sponsored by Home Instead, Inc., the franchisor of the Home Instead Senior Care network, honors the contributions of adults 65 and older who give at least 15 hours a month of volunteer service to their favorite causes. Nominations for outstanding senior volunteers will be accepted between Feb. 1 and March 31, 2013. State winners then will be selected by popular vote at SalutetoSeniorService.com. Online voting will take place from April 15 to April 30, 2013. From those state winners, a panel of senior care experts will pick the national Salute
to Senior Service honoree. Home Instead, Inc. will donate $500 to each of the state winners’ favorite nonprofit organizations and their stories will be posted on the Salute to Senior Service Wall of Fame. In addition, $5,000 will be donated to the national winner’s nonprofit charity of choice. We all know seniors who do so much for our community, said Nancy Foster, owner of the Home Instead Senior Care office serving the Charleston and Huntington areas. “These silent heroes give selflessly, expecting nothing in return. And yet, their contributions often make a difference not only to the organizations they serve, but in changing how the public views growing older.” Senior care professionals and
those who work at hospitals, senior care facilities and other places where seniors volunteer are encouraged to nominate older adults. So, too, are family caregivers and the adult children of aging parents. Older adults also may self-nominate. To complete and submit a nomination form online for a senior age 65 or older who volunteers at least 15 hours a month, and to view the contest’s official rules, visit SalutetoSeniorService.com. Completed nomination forms also can be mailed to Salute to Senior Service, P.O. Box 285, Bellevue, NE 68005. For more information about Salute to Senior Service or the Home Instead Senior Care network’s services, call 855-390-0030.

WeeklyDevotional By Mary Jane “MARCH MELODIES” Thought for the week: The wind bloweth where it liseth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit. JOHN: 3; 8 (KJV). Today the sun is shining, but last night the winds howled, rattling windows, whistling around corners of the house, bumping into the wind chimes, causing them to sing loudly; and by the chimes movement, triggering the motion lights to go on and off. Month of March has her way of telling us she has arrived in various ways not only thru her sounds, but sunshine to snowdrops, she is the undecided month. Changes, much like people, with our different personalities. Colors, nationalities, beliefs, thoughts etc… but we were all created by GOD. And we all have the option to believe that. JOHN: 3: 6-7 that which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee; ye must be born again. (KJV) Just as the wind blows, not knowing what direction it comes from, so are we, life can end any second. My kind and gentle brother-in-law passed last week, coming from his mailbox, he was found lying in his yard in the sunshine, with mail in hand. So unlike his wife, my sister, who spent the last 8 years of her life in a nursing home. God knew how the 67 years of life together this devoted couple lived. As the granddaughter spoke at his funeral: “My Papaw did not die from a heart attack, instead, a heart overflowed with the love of his life, passing before him, just one month and a day to be exact’’. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 I would rather believe in GOD and knowing that any second I will live on eternally, than to live a life unsure with plans to change. “When the time comes for you to die, you need not be afraid, because death cannot separate you from Gods love’’ - Charles H, Spurgeon. “Do you think we choose the times into which we are born? Or do we fit the times we are born into?” - Abraham Lincoln. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was; and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7 So let March blow her winds, whistle her songs, and give her threats of lingering winter snows. God is still in control of all things, you and I, birds that sing, and whatever the weather brings. Prayer: Our Father in heaven, thank you for giving us LIFE, guide us that we may live it better for YOU. Amen.

importance of books. The power of reading is so special and so valuable; it is something that never leaves us. I strongly encourage all schools, libraries and eligible organizations in our great state to help our local communities build their own book collections by taking advantage of this tremendous program. This is a unique opportunity from the
world’s largest library to provide free books to West Virginians.” For more information on eligibility and how to apply, please contact Senator Manchin’s office at 202-224-3954, or visit the Library of Congress Surplus Books Program web page at http://www.loc.gov/acq/surplus.html.
The Rahall Report
Buy American, Build America I believe in the straight forward and self-evident premise that the elected representatives of the American people have a sworn duty to protect and promote U.S. manufacturing and American jobs. We must foster American industry and empower American workers so that they can compete on a fair and level playing field against foreign rivals. As the top Democrat on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, I have been a vocal and active champion of “Buy American” requirements, ensuring that sizable Federal investments result in American jobs. I recently introduced the Invest in American Jobs Act, which is intended to strengthen existing “Buy American” requirements for investments in highway, bridge, public transit, rail, water systems, and aviation infrastructure equipment. In this way, we can help to ensure that U.S taxpayer dollars are put to use building American infrastructure with
American materials and craftsmanship, and, result in American jobs. By investing in products that are “Made in America,” we are investing in our American workers – in their education, their training, and their skills and talents – so that they can compete and win in a global economy. Certainly, there will be those who want to minimize protections for American industry, in the hope and based on the fanciful theory that other nations will follow suit. It is an old argument that dates back to the early years of the American republic. The great statesman and Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Henry Clay, once referred to such calls as “the cry of a spoiled child, in its nurse’s arms, for the moon, or the stars that glitter in the firmament of heaven.” West Virginia workers know all too well how the grand promises of so-called free trade agreements rarely come to fruition. The end result is almost always

the same – factories shutting down, jobs moving overseas, unsustainable trade imbalances, and lower wages and benefits. I believe in free trade, as long as it is fair trade. West Virginians can compete and win in a global economy if they have a level playing field, and I aim to ensure that we get it. I am pressing to strengthen America’s hand at the trade negotiating table and ensure greater security for American jobs. I have joined several of my House colleagues in urging the U.S. Trade Representative to press for more transparency and Congressional consultation in trade negotiations. I am pressing to ensure greater transparency and public participation in the socalled Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement, so that American workers know upfront what this agreement means for their economic livelihoods and job security. As a member of the Congressional Buy American Caucus, I have been pushing to protect existing “Buy American” procurement policies in our Nation’s trade agreements, trying to ensure that U.S. taxpayer dollars are invested into our economy to create jobs and strengthen our manufacturing sector. As well, I have supported and cosponsored legislation to repeal tax breaks for American companies that send jobs overseas, and sought to encourage American companies to bring jobs home. Certainly, tax breaks and trade deals that facilitate and encourage the outsourcing of American jobs – whatever the economic theories may espouse – hurt working, middle-class families. When we buy American, we build America. That will be my guiding principle as our Nation seeks to close our budgetary deficits and fully recover from the recent recession that has caused such harm to working families.

Waves of Redemption By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
HURRICANE - The problems of last year’s season will soon be washed away by new powerhouses at Waves of Fun. Parks and Recreation crews received the first wave of parts last week. The four old pumps are gone and the two new, clutch-driven models will soon be installed. Scott Williamson, director of Putnam County Parks and Recreation is ready. “I’m confident we’ll recover all losses from last year and make some gains,” he said. “We’re hoping for more performance and expecting better waves.” The machines from Aquatic Design Group Inc. are technologically advanced, according to Williamson. The two pumps have the ability to expand and offer Hurricane something no other pool in the area has: 16 types of waves.
“There’s a lot of potential for growth,” he said. Williamson looked out his window, toward the slides of the wave pool. Memories flooded his mind. “It was a bad summer and we took a beating,” he said. “But that negative is definitely turning into a positive - we’ve overcome a lot of obstacles, but we got our footprint now, and we just got to build onto it and redeem what happened.” Williamson continued, “The iron is hot - now is the time and I’m ready to make this happen.” The wave pool overhaul will cost about $173,000, funded by a loan through Putnam County Bank. Revenue from the wave pool will pay off the loan. Williamson thanked county commissioners and the community for their continued support. He hopes to re-pay them all with a one-of-a-kind park. Fresh waves aren’t the only new thing coming to the pool. Crews
will also re-vamp parts of the aging putt-putt golf course. Williamson is excited to offer a new experience to residents and customers this year. “It’s going to be a fresh look all the way around,” he said. “We want to keep it exciting. I see us as a support for small businesses in the county, by bringing people in, who otherwise wouldn’t be here.” Williamson continued, “We are a window to Putnam County, and hopefully we’ll open that window by May 25th.”

art instructor at Huntington High School transitioned from ceramics and painting to dichroic and reactive glass in sterling jewelry pieces. Now she is concentrating on unique fine art works featuring fired glass in stainless steel mounts, either as wall hangings or free standing pieces. She received the first place award in the 2009 West Virginia Emerging Artist Exhibit. Vernon Howell, an art instructor at Barboursville High School, continues to range far and wide, painting, working in wood and creating his signature three dimensional collage pieces that are often both whimsical and industrial at the same time. The collage pieces are instantly recognizable as his, and consistently receive award recognition. He has exhibited nationally and was recognized in 2012 with the West Virginia Governor’s Arts Award for Lifetime Achievement for his significant accomplishments in the arts. Rabert Fulks, an art and graphic design instructor in the Cabell County Career Technology Center, was once a student of Vernon Howell and is only recently retired. He paints using oil and wax. His earthy portraits and landscapes are often subdued and draw on Appalachian life and countryside. His work has already received a number

for it,” said Daniel. “My daughter is very artsy, so we brought her into the picture and it just happened.” Businesses like Blenko, donated leftover pieces and glass mistakes to Glass from the Past. After experimenting with these pieces and glass bottles, Baldwin was hooked. The passion has driven her and Sherri Farley, a glass cutter, to create hundreds of attention-grabbing items. “The best part is having people comment, saying they’ve never seen that before,” Baldwin said. “Also, the process of making the pieces is relaxing and fun.” Glass from the Past truly is a “green business.” “The great thing is that it’s all recycled,” said Daniel. “It can be personalized - it’s a different idea for a gift that you can’t get at a store.” Baldwin develops the initial idea and passes it down to Farley. Then, the process begins. “She tells me how to cut it, we conspire and put it together,” said Farley. The art-creating-duo has prepared several custom pieces for local weddings, and also has completed special orders on request. The business offers custom etching and engraving to turn any piece into a personalized treasure “This is fun,” said Baldwin. “It’s a passion.” For more information on Glass from the Past, visit their Barboursville store or www.facebook.com/GlassfromthePast#!/p ages/Glass-From-the-

FRANK LINVILLE JR. Frank Linville Jr. of Milton, formerly of Charleston, was tragically taken from us on the morning of February 25, 2013, in a house fire. Oh, how we grieve his passing. Frank was a Christian man. He was a 45-year member of Oakwood Road Church of Christ, Charleston. Honesty, integrity, truthfulness, humility, love - all these things describe the way Frank lived his life. All who knew him, whether in his business or personal life, would agree that Frank was a one-of-a-kind man. He had the purest of pure hearts. He now takes his place with the heavenly Father.

In 1990 Frank joined his two sons in their business, Tri-State Business Machines of Williamson. Also in 1990, they opened American Business Machines of Barboursville. In 1992 the three created Linville Enterprises, a company involved in the construction and acquisition of rental property. In 2004 the company bought Meadowland Golf Club of Winfield. In 2011 the company bought Riverview Apartments in Winfield.

CLINTON "TALLBOY" PAINTER Clinton "Tallboy" Painter, 60, was born to Owen and Ellen Jones Painter on May 18, 1952. Clint left this world after a long illness at Duke University Hospital in Durham, N.C., on February 26, 2013. Clint was born on Poca River Road and was one of 10 children. His childhood was filled with happy times but it was a hard life. He learned many valuable lessons about hard work and honesty that made him the man he became and those lessons he carried with him for his lifetime. Clinton loved his family so much. Clinton graduated from Sissonville High School in 1970 and was one of what many people consider as one of the best basketball teams ever to play at Sissonville. Clinton was coached by Jerry Moore and after 43 years still carried a special place in his heart for his teammates. Clinton was the first male basketball player from Sissonville High School to receive a full scholar-
ship at Fairmont State College, where he played for the legendary Coach Jo Jo Retton. The Fairmont Falcons won a trip to the NCAA tournament in 1971 in Kansas City, Mo. For a young man who hadn't been out of Sissonville much his entire life, this was the moment of a lifetime. Clinton was a heavy equipment operator for 40 years, working in the water and waste-water business. He was well known for his backhoe expertise in the industry. Over his career as an operator he worked for Taylor and Streigel, Reynolds Construction, Watson Construction, Diversified Enterprises and Mountaineer Manufacturing, to name just a few. Clinton truly loved what he did for a living and all of the men he had the opportunity to work with, many who became lifelong friends. With his love of basketball Clinton was a coach for Sissonville Biddy Basketball and girls AAU basketball for 10 years with his daughter, Savanna. During this time, it was some of the happiest of our lives. He considered so many kids who he worked with his own and they shared that love of Clinton and do to this very day. Clinton was a truly special man who had a heart of gold and affected many lives. He will be so very missed by everyone who knew him. Clinton is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Lisa Elkins Painter; daughters, Jessica Painter of Huntington and Savanna Painter at home; sisters, Rita Clark of Charleston, Rose Blaylok and husband, Bill, of Pinch, Nettie Norman of Somerset, Ky., and Brenda Fields of Charleston; brothers, Jim and wife, Debbie, of Sissonville, Steve of Charleston and Bob and wife, Phyllis, of Sissonville; brother-inlaw, Jeff Elkins of Charleston; uncle-in-law, Bill Linville of Sissonville; sister-in-law, Barbara Ann Surface Painter; and many nieces and nephews, plus a host of friends. Clinton was preceded in death by his parents, Owen and Ellen Painter; brother, Sonny "Boone" Painter; sister, Connie Painter Dundon; father- and mother-inlaw, Chris and Loretta Elkins; and many other family and friends. We cannot express the excellent level of care he received at Duke, but more importantly the caring of all of his caregivers during his stay at Duke. A special heartfelt thank you to Dr.

Campbellsville University to hold second annual Beulah Campbell Children's Literature Conference March 16 By Christina L. Kern, office assistant CAMPBELLSVILLE, KY Campbellsville University's School of Education will host the second annual Beulah Campbell Children's Literature Conference, Saturday, March 16 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the campus of Campbellsville University. The conference, which is sponsored by U.S. Bank, brings children's authors, teachers, librarians and other educators together to share children's literature and ways of using literature in the classroom. The conference features authors Tim Callahan, author of the "Kentucky Summer Series" set in Morgan County, Ky.; Leigh Anne Florence of Shepherdsville, Ky., author of the popular "Woody Series;" and Heather Henson of Danville, Ky., award-winning author of picture books and novels
for teens. Henson will give the keynote address on "Reading and Writing for Life," how the stories her mother read to her as a child helped shape who and what she became today: a published writer of books for young readers. Callahan will speak at the luncheon on "Getting Kids Excited to Read-Is it Possible for Some Kids?" which will detail the importance of kids developing a love of books and reading at an early age including techniques for learning to love reading. Beulah Campbell, for whom the conference is named, will be honored at the luncheon for her life's work in the field of children's literature and for her generous donation of children's books and original children's illustrations from her vast collection to CU's School of Education. Florence, Henson and Calla-
han will participate in an author "meet and greet" from 2 to 3 p.m. where you can chat with the authors one-on-one and get their books personally autographed. This is planned in the Winters Dining Hall lobby. Other speakers in breakout sessions include: Dr. April Stephens, assistant professor of music education at Campbellsville University; Dr. Patsy Perritt, professor emeritus from Louisiana State University, School of Library and Information; and Dr. Joan Atkinson, associate professor emeritus from the University of Alabama, School of Library and Information Studies. There will be a student poster session which includes original children's books written by CU's Math and Science Methods class to teach math and science concepts. Campbell graduated from
Campbellsville College in 1936 and was awarded an honorary doctorate from CU in 2005. She began her career at Appalachian State University in 1957 and gained national recognition for conducting children's literature conferences, festivals and workshops. She retired in 1981 and lives in Campbellsville, Ky. During her career, she began collecting artists' original illustrations created for children's books. Her collection of illustrations is shared between Campbellsville University and Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C. Campbell's collection includes the entire original illustrations from the children's book "The Knee Baby" written by Mary Jarrell and illustrated by Symen Shimin.

Conference is $60 or $65 at the door. College student registration is $25; CU student registration is free, with the option of attending the luncheon for $15.
