The Indiana State Police is investigating a fatal crash on I-64 at the 7 mile-marker. The crash occurred at approximately 8:56 a.m. on Monday morning and involved one vehicle.

Preliminary investigation revealed a Ford pickup truck was eastbound and had just passed a semi. The Ford pickup had moved

back into the driving lane when it started to drift off the roadway. The driver of the pickup overcorrected when she attempted to get her vehicle back onto the roadway and lost control. The pickup truck left the roadway on the right and traveled approximately 200 feet before overturning onto a highway sign.

The cab was crushed during the rollover, which caused the fatal injury. She was wearing a seat belt.

Members of the Poseyville Fire Department had to extricate the driver from the vehicle.

At press time, the Indiana State Police was attempting to notify

It has been a tough year for area farmers. Besides the drought, some farmers in the area were hit with yet another setback with the announcement of the closing of the bridge at New Harmony. That announcement was made the week of Memorial Day. But thanks to the likes of Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth, the Indiana and Posey County farm bureaus, and INDOT, it looks as if an agreement should be reached in time to help save these area farmers countless hours and dollars come harvest time.

While residents on both the Illinois and Indiana side of the bridge were given the option to pass into Illinois or Indiana via Interstate 64 to Grayville, area farmers are not given that luxury since it is illegal for farm equipment to travel on an Interstate highway.

Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth was recently contacted by farmers in the area who indicated to him that not only were they no longer able to use the New Harmony bridge, they also could not use the Interstate.

That means that a farmer traveling from Poseyville, Griffin, New Harmony, or even parts of Gibson County into Illinois must now travel first to Mount Vernon, Ind., and then travel into Illinois.

Local farmer Tim Wiley said he timed the route earlier this week and it took him over two hours just to make the trip to the bridge and back from his family’s New Harmony area farm.

“I got involved with it just after the bridge closed,” Oeth said on Sunday. “Tim and I had a conversation and he and his dad and brother were in a bad way. And there are some other farmers in the area who Libby and Emmelyn Reese enjoy the Meet the Farmer at the park across the street from Bosse Field are looking at extended hours and expenses.” on Sunday.

OPINION

Are all circumstances really that black and white...Seriously?

Just for a moment, take yourself deep into Posey County. Pretend you are at an intersection of two roads you have traveled thousands of times. It is 3 a.m. and there is a stop TRUTH... light and you just hit it red.

TRANGER S You can see for a mile in T HAN both directions. Do you look F ICTION carefully and then proceed through the stop light or do BY DAVE PEARCE you sit there and wait the two or three minutes until the light turns green. That, my friend, is the best way to explain one of the primary differenced between my wife and I. To my wife, everything is either black or white...either right or wrong. To me, there is sometimes a gray area. I can tell you first hand that my wife would sit in the dark on the country road and wait for the light to turn green. I can also tell you that I, on the other hand, would stop, look both directions, and would probably go ahead through the stop light, even though it is red. That's the area I like to call common sense. My wife insists that it is a black and white issue and it is wrong to proceed through the red light, regardless of the circumstances.

I can tell you from many years of ex-

perience that it has been a great 23 years living with a woman who has the "black and white" mentality. That is why she is involved in the banking industry and that is why she does the bookkeeping for the newspaper. I, on the other hand, sometimes have to figure out ways to get information for stories and that information sometimes comes from information gathered in the gray area.

Sometimes I feel a necessity to pay attention to the conversation of those around me who have no idea who I am or what I am doing. I am a listener and use many of the "tips" I pick up from the conversations of others to gather story information. Even thought they may not be talking to me, it is part of the training I received when I was in an investigative journalism class. I also learned that just because you hear it doesn't necessarily mean that it is 100 percent true.

However, even most rumors contain a partial truth and some merit. If I hear it and think the public needs to know, I will usually go straight to the source and begin to gather accurate information for the story.

You would be surprised how much you can gather if you stop talking so much and start listening more. Those of you who know me know I talk an incredible amount. Those who know me well know that I also am a listener. I take to heart things that I hear face-to-face or even from a third party.

Just today, Sheriff Greg Oeth told me that an arrest was made this morning, due to a tip that was passed along to me on my Facebook page. I took the tip seriously and Greg called me this morning to let me know that thanks to that tip, an arrest was made. Was that information from the black and white area or would that be considered in the gray area?

I guess the point I am trying to make is there are definitely people that are better off living in their black and white world. They are the ones who help keep a handle on those of us who believe in "the gray area."

Some recent issues at our church have been based on these same premises. My wife is one who has been taught to live strictly by the rules. If the rules are in place, she believes, they are to be followed. And even if it is up to her to speak her mind regarding the subject, she is going to see that things are done by the rules.

I, on the other hand, can see the merit of sometimes operating in the "gray" area or what I like to refer to as "the common sense area." Sometimes I think common sense trumps black and white. But when the day is finished. I believe there is a time and a place for both the black and white and the gray.

This difference in the two areas has served Connie and I will during our married years. She has been there to serve as a limitation as to how far I can take my idea of "common sense" and I have been there to perpetuate the "common sense" approach to some of our differences. It also serves me well from the newspaper standpoint as I know the bookkeeping portion of the job is always going to go strictly by the books.

That helps me rest easier at night.

Just goes to show you that the old riddle...What's black and white and re(a)d all over actually is the newspaper. It is operated by someone who is black and white and another who is gray all over. It all goes back to one of the first books that was given to me when I entered the world of newspaper. The title of the book..."First, Break all the Rules."

I've been an excellent student!

Window Wizards insure ‘a room of one’s own’ has a view to the world Twentieth century British novelist Virginia Woolf believed a woman writer needed to be independently wealthy and to work in ‘a room of one’s own.’ I have met one out of the two prerequisites LIVING for success—a room of my FOR THE own, complete with a lock- JOURNEY ing door and double win- BY PAM dows. That’s not too bad ROBINSON for a late blooming writer practicing in the digital age.

Recently, however, I realized I needed more – a view to the world – to write with any depth. In other words, I looked up

one day and peered into windows caked with grime. “How long has it been since Jamie [my stepson] and I washed all the windows inside and out?” I suddenly wondered. “What year did he graduate from MVHS?” I didn’t want to answer the question.

On a good referral, I called Window Wizards, the Adamaitis father and son window cleaners listed in the paper’s business directory. Their primary clientele is local business, but they will help out a home owner when called as well.

When Dan, the younger Adamaitis, came out to our home to work up a quote for his service, he sized up the situation in just a few minutes. We really needed our windows cleaned, all right. He even offered to discount his labor if I’d schedule a Saturday appointment. Trust me; he didn’t have to twist my arm.

Dan figured he’d need two or three hours to wash down the windows in our modest three-bedroom ranch home. Instead, he required five and a half hours to do the job. He hadn’t realized our fold-out storm windows demanded so much attention. Still, he charged me what he had quoted for his services, and if he cussed, he did it under his breath.

As it turns out, Dan remembers my stepson Jamie and tells a good story about one of Jamie’s high school adventures. In fact, he and Jamie were in the same graduating class at MVHS. I cringed when he mentioned the year, but we won’t go there. Suffice it to say, he didn’t need to speak another word to guarantee my repeat business.

Yes, indeed, Dan has earned my promise that I’d have him back out in the spring and every year thereafter to clean my windows. At this rate, Dan is the one who will become independently wealthy.

He deserves every penny, of course, for providing me a room with a view. The future looks pretty bright for both of us now.

Gavel Gamut’s ‘The Wrath Of Cane’ Peg has tired of my ski injury. On March 19th she was sympathetic and supportive.

But, after watching the chores pile up around JPeg Ranch she yearns for those days of old when she would say, “Are you ever go- GAVEL ing to get off that couch and do something around here?”, GAMUT and I had no credible excuse

BY JUDGE for not doing so.

For over four months my JIM REDWINE new best friends have been a hospital bed, a wheelchair, an old man’s walker, crutches and, finally, a soothing wooden cane given to me by my friend Darrell Creek. I liked my cane. It was old. It was gnarled. It was stained with years of wear. It was a ubiquitous shield from Peg’s commands. It has gone missing.

I last saw it hanging from the arm of the upstairs couch where I had left it when I slipped downstairs to the refrigerator; I thought Peg was outside doing some of those chores. When I returned to my couch laden with chips, dip and a Coke, my buddy was gone. It had been disappeared.

What to do? I could not accuse the obviously guilty party as that would establish I had abandoned my dear friend as unnecessary.

I called out for Peg who eventually appeared from the attic without expression or cane. I

delicately approached the elephant not in the room: “Peg, would you like some chips and dip? These somehow made their way upstairs.”

She sweetly declined and asked me how my leg was doing. “You know, Jim, the doctor told us you should be able to engage in most activities within four months and it has been four and a half. Are you feeling up to wading through the yard with the mower or, perhaps, at least weeding the garden? I mean, if you can bear the pain and walk unassisted.”

How diabolical wives can be. Was she feigning concern or simply daring me to clutch at my poor broken leg one last time? Even Bill Clinton would have felt my pain more than Peg. “Would you like for me to assist you all the way down those durned old stairs and out into the yard? You remember the yard don’t you?”

For some reason my thoughts went back to childhood and visions of my big sister threatening to tell Mom if I didn’t get the dishes done. Then I would slip away with my dog, Dandy, my then best friend, and try to hide in my tree house. It didn’t work then either. At least Peg could let me visit my cane between chores.

Letter to the Editor ‘Thank you’ to North Posey community, school and PCN Dave, We would like to say “Thank You” and to express our appreciation to the North Posey Community, the N.P.H.S. and you as well.

The last four years being a part of the North Posey Basketball family has been a wonderful experience. We were very proud to wear our North Posey shirts and to show our support for the team.

Before we know it basketball season will soon be here. We would like to wish the team and the new coach great success as the season approaches. In many ways the team itself is already a winner. We were always impressed with the sportsmanship and respect the young men had and would show to others. I know the school and the parents have a lot to be proud of when it comes to

their students. Not only was this seen on the court, but also in the fan section and stands.

To you Dave, we say “Thank You!” for the great coverage you did and do for the sports coverage. Also, thank you for your colorful articles in the weekly “Opinion.’

We look forward each week to getting the Posey County News to read your write up.

So many times we find ourselves thinking you could be writing about us. Thank you for the laughter.

Again, we thank you, the community and N.P.H.S. Best Wishes, Kelly & Telesa Wadsworth (Or as many called us “Coaches’ Parents”)

“Not only do we have agricultural needs but we also have industrial needs. We will do whatever we need to do to help these people.”

“We just have to have the people willing to put together all the information required

by INDOT and then someone there will have to make a decision as to whether or not they will allow us to help these farmers,” Oeth said.

Back to School Reminder As the children prepare to return to school, please keep animal safety in mind as well. Not only do drivers need to be on the lookout for children and school buses, this is the time of year we see more dogs and cats on roads and sidewalks. Animals love to follow their people and as kids head back to school so do dogs and cats! Please be sure your animals are safely contained and be on the lookout for dogs and cats wandering the streets especially in the school zone areas. Let’s make this a safe school season for everyone.

The American Red Cross Reminds Donors to donate blood As summer winds down, the hustle and bustle of families falling back into school and work routines begin.

The American Red Cross reminds eligible donors to keep blood donation in their routine and add “help save lives” to their to-do lists. At least three extra donors at all August blood drives, above what’s currently expected, are critically needed for the

Red Cross to readily meet hospital and patient needs this month and into the fall.

Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit redcrossblood.org to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of identification

are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Please take all found pets to a vet’s office, animal control, or humane society to have them scanned for a microchip free.

Please don't think that just because you have an indoor only pet that collars and tags are unnecessary. Many of the animals that end up in shelters are someone’s lost pet, but we have no way to contact the owner if there are no tags or if the microchip isn't registered.

Please keep proper ID on your pet at all times, and make sure your microchip registration is up to date.

The Basics of Power of Attorney

INGREDIENTS 4 cups whole milk 1/2 pound elbow macaroni pasta (2 to 2 1/2 cups) 4 Tbsp butter 2 cups, packed, grated cheddar cheese (about 1/2 pound) Freshly ground black pepper Nutmeg 1/4 to 1/3 cup bread crumbs Cayenne (optional)

DIRECTIONS 1. Heat the milk in a large saucepan until steamy. Stir in the dry macaroni pasta. Let come to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer. Pay attention while the macaroni is cooking in the milk as the milk may foam up and boil over if the milk gets too hot. Cook the macaroni for 15 minutes or until done.

The macaroni should absorb almost all of the milk.

2. Preheat oven to 400°F. As soon as the macaroni is close to being done, melt the butter in a separate saucepan, stir in the grated cheese, black pepper to taste and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Once the cheese has melted, pour the sauce into the macaroni and milk mixture and stir to combine. Taste and add salt if needed.

3. Place macaroni and cheese mixture into a baking dish.

Sprinkle the top with breadcrumbs. Sprinkle lightly with cayenne (if using). Bake in a 400°F oven for 20 minutes or until the top is lightly browned..

Yield: Serves 4.

Special to the News by IBA A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that authorizes one person or persons to handle the affairs — such as financial, legal and health matters — of another person. The POA document can be critically important if an individual becomes disabled and needs someone else to manage his or her finances, pay taxes or authorize medical treatments.

A POA usually has two parties: (1) a “principal,” and (2) an “attorney in fact,” or “agent.” The principal is the person granting authority. The attorney in fact, or agent, is the person or persons assuming the authority of the principal. It is not necessary for the attorney in fact to be a licensed attorney. In order for the POA to be legally binding, it must be signed by the principal, who must be mentally competent at the time of the signing. Most people give power of attorney to a spouse, adult relative or close friend. The principal should name an agent who knows him or her well and who will act according to the principal’s wishes and best interests. The principal also may name a substitute agent when drafting a power of attorney, in the event that the agent is unable to act.

There are generally two types of POAs: (1) a “general” power of attorney, and (2) a “special,” or “limited,” power of attorney. A general POA gives the agent broad power and authority to do nearly anything that the principal can do for himself or herself. A person giving a general POA needs to be comfortable with whomever is named as an agent, because the principal will likely be bound by whatever actions are taken on his or her behalf. A special or limited power of attorney differs from a general POA, because it limits the authority of the agent to only carry out certain prescribed powers that the

’s im

principal grants. A limited POA can restrict the authority of the agent to act only on certain matters — for example financial, medical or real estate issues.

Another consideration to a power of attorney is whether the principal wants the POA to remain in force if the principal becomes mentally incompetent. These types of POAs are called “durable.” Either a general POA or a limited POA can be durable, and they remain effective or can be triggered into effect after a doctor certifies that the principal is mentally incapacitated. A POA that becomes effective only upon the mental incapacity of the principal is also called a “springing” POA. Principals may terminate POAs at any time that they are competent to manage their own legal affairs. To terminate a POA, the principal should notify any named agent that the POA has been terminated. The principal also should collect and destroy the original and any copies of the POA, and should notify any bank or third party that may have been relying upon the POA that the POA has been revoked.

A POA automatically terminates upon the death of the principal. In other words, when the principal dies, so does the POA, and any authority of the agent is revoked. The agent is no longer authorized to act on behalf of what would now be the estate of the principle.

It is important to check with an attorney familiar with the state-specific power of attorney rules where you reside. For example in some states a POA is only as valid as someone’s willingness to accept or honor it. Any third party presented with the power of attorney in those states has the right to inform the agent they will not honor the POA.

WMI in search of permanent Director

Participating in a car wash for the Mount Vernon High School band on Saturday are Melanie Davis, Katelyn Brown, Haley Biggs, Andrew Higgins, Denise King, and Patrick Gerton. Photo by Connie Pearce

WMI News Dream Big: READ - this year's Summer Reading Program, wrapped up week, and it was a great summer for summer reading! The program this year had 16 children register, hosted 8 programs over a 2 month period, and collectively had an attendance of 66. The children involved read over 100 books during the program. I’m so proud of all of them.

In addition to regular coordinators Margaret Diemer and Gayle Williams, the program also had very able assistance from Janie Suttles, Casey and Lesa Trela, Tori Osban, Mellody Arrieta, Fred Frayser, Jamie Haney, Lydia Spann, and doubtlessly others whose names slip my mind at the present. Thanks to all of you for making this summer's

reading program a success.

If you haven’t been into the Working Men’s Institute in awhile, you may want to come by and see what’s been going on. We’ve moved some shelving, which allows more of our circulating nonfiction materials to be browsed, puts the public access Internet terminals in place more their own, and – best of all – opens more of the space previously closed to the public to be opened.

Coming up on August 16 at 7:30 p.m., the third in the WMI 2012 Lecture Series takes place. “The Elegant Solution: Economics of Climate Change,” will be presented

by Sarah Lynn Cunningham, Midwest District Manager of The Climate Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated

to calling attention to the global problems associated with climate change, founded

by Nobel Laureate and former Vice President Al Gore. The Friends of the New Harmony Working Men’s Institute are sponsors of this lecture.

The Friends of the New Harmony Working Men’s Institute just began a new year in July, so all Friends need to renew their membership.

Membership runs from July 1 through June 30. Basic family membership is $15/year, and can be mailed to the Friends of WMI at P.O. Box 393 in New Harmony.

The Friends are also currently seeking volunteers to help at the Brat Booth during Kunstfest. Call the library – 682-4806 – for more information.

If you have ideas for programs that you would like to see presented at the Working Men’s Institute, please let me know! You can call me at the library, come by during library hours, or email me.

Here’s my email: cochran.stephen@gmail.com The Working Men’s Institute is open from 10-7 Tuesday-Thursday, from 104:30 Friday-Saturday, and from 12-4 on Sunday. Please come and visit, especially if it’s been awhile; we have free Wi-Fi, great reading materials, public access Internet workstations, and a very welcoming staff.

The Board of Trustees of the New Harmony Working Men’s Institute has appointed a four-member search committee to find a permanent director. The director oversees the entire operation of the WMI, including the management of archives, collections, and contemporary lending library. Additionally, the director works closely with the Friends of the WMI, and both initiates and coordinates local community outreach programs. Stephen Cochran, of Mount Vernon, currently serves as interim director.

The director is charged with maintaining the mission of the WMI, which includes “the dissemination of useful knowledge”, as well as “safeguarding our unique holdings while making them accessible to increase public awareness and knowledge of the New Harmony experience”. “The Working Men’s Institute is more than just a library and museum: it is a cultural center and promulgator of New Harmony history and tradition,” states Nathan Maudlin, committee chairman and trustee. According to Maudlin, “The WMI membership has become increasingly aware of the importance of its rare collections and archives, which

attest to New Harmony’s unique place in the American Experience, and in the intellectual history of the West. We want to make sure that our choice of director understands that importance and furthermore has the ability to advertise this exceptional institution to both a local and an international community of concerned citizens, history buffs, and scholars.”

Greg Hager, director of Evansville’s Willard Library, concurs that the WMI offers a truly unique opportunity to scholars, here and abroad. Hager showed enthusiasm over the recent discovery in the WMI archives of a letter from Charles Dickens. At the request of the search committee, Hager attended a recent meeting to advise them on establishing guidelines for qualifications and expectations of a director.

The committee will initiate a nationwide search beginning August 1st, with announcements in a number of leading job-posting outlets for museum and library administrators. For more information about the Working Men’s Institute and the position of director, please consult www.workingmensinstitute.org.

The Elks promote community involvement and is open to all men and women over the age of 21.

The Harmonists, a religious utopian sect from Germany, constructed Community House No. 2 for communal living in 1822. Three years later, the building was integrated into the OwenMaclure utopian community and functioned as a school and living quarters for students and teachers. When that community fizzled after a few years, Community House No. 2 housed several businesses until the 1930s.

The print shop (1850s1930s) will return to its former place of business on the third floor. Original printing equipment will be displayed,

Community House No. 2, which has lived a long and varied life since being built in the 1820s, will reopen in September 2012. This grand reopening marks the first time the exhibits and the structure have received extensive tender loving care since the 1960s. Visitors will be greeted by new exhibits featuring artifacts, including those found in recent archaeological excavations in the backyard, and photographs pertaining to the building.

The renovations were inspired by the previous functions of the structure.

An elderly man noticed a young boy who was walking his rather strange looking dog. Puzzled, he asked, “What kind of dog is that?”

“A genuine police dog,” came the quick reply.

“He doesn’t look like a police dog to me,” said the man.

“Of course not! He works undercover so no one will

recognize him,” answered the boy.

During these turbulent times when we are fearful of terrorists, our government needs people who work “under cover.” But not the Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior.

Those who are Christians begin their new life in Him with a confession of faith.

Being saved begins with a confession followed by becoming a disciple. Being a disciple demands that others see the life of Christ lived through us.

Confession is not only something that the Christian says; it is also something that a Christian does.

Do others see the love of Jesus in your life?

was faced with some challenging choices.

We see the original masterpiece begin to pick up flaws.

“Life happens!” This is what most people will say, but as life “happens” we are given the chance to make decisions that will determine every sequential decision. It is here that we see the beginning of a build-up of flaws.

These flaws are called sin by the Bible. Over time every decision that is made progressively begins to hide that original piece of work God made.

Something needs to happen to eliminate all this build-up.

Something must take place to alleviate the problem and help has to be offered. This is where Jesus steps in.

We see the original masterpiece in need of help.

We need the help that can only come through the one who originated this whole masterpiece. Just like an ice sculpture or a wood carving, the creator sees beyond all the exterior “stuff” and begins chipping away until the perfect piece of artwork is revealed. We need the help of

the Creator to chip away at all the stuff that has built up and caused us to see, not as we see but as God sees us.

I am unable to see artwork when I look at a piece of wood, but an artist sees through all the rough exterior to the beautiful image down inside. I am glad that God knows what’s on the inside because we too often cannot see.

Why not let God remake you into that great masterpiece? If you do you just might discover the Master’s peace!

Sermon of the Week: The Original Masterpiece

By The Rev. Rick Sellers, Mount Zion General Baptist Many times we will see a new movie come out and think “Haven’t I seen that somewhere before?” Lately it seems that movie makers are bringing back many of the classics with a modern twist.

Sometimes they are really good but, at least in my opinion, most of the time there is the feeling that “they should have left well enough alone.”

When it comes to art work the original masterpiece holds a higher value than reprints although many reprints cannot be distinguished from the originals except by the professionally trained eye.

Just like an original masterpiece in the art world there

Worship with us

are many similarities to God’s original masterpiece. When we read in the first two chapters of Genesis the description of God’s masterpiece shows us step by step the perfect design without flaws.

We see the original masterpiece created to reflect its Creator.

26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. (Genesis 1:2627 NKJV)

At the time of creation, when God made mankind, the design was that man would reflect His image which is what makes us so unique.

When the heavens and earth began to take shape everything was good because it all came about precisely as God intended, as He spoke it into existence.

When God made man He said this was very good.

God’s original masterpiece was a great work. Man was given the responsibility to care for all the rest of creation. God gave man the ability to make decisions on a higher level. Along with this God gave man a freedom to make these choices. It was in this position of great beauty and responsibility that man

MSD of Mount Vernon finalist to compete for a grant up to $25,000 Winning a grant of $10,000 or $25,000 can enhance educational opportunities for a school district in a rural community. Metropolitan School District of Mt. Vernon was recently named as a finalist to receive consideration for an America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education Grant. Metropolitan School District of Mount Vernon is one of 21 finalists in Indiana.

“We received so many outstanding applications from rural school districts across the county,” said Deborah Patterson, President, Monsanto Fund. “The finalists truly went above and beyond what was expected and stand out as top tier choices.”

More than 61,000 farmers shared their passion for rural education by nominating more than half the eligible school districts. Finalist schools were chosen for their program ideas and funding needs. Metropolitan School District of Mt. Vernon also benefited from community support through numerous farmer nominations which strengthened the district’s application.

The grant review process includes an online application scoring system based on merit, need and community support; a review by science and math teachers from ineligible school districts; and a farmer advisory council.

Now that the finalists have been chosen, the America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education Advisory Council, a group of 26 farmer leaders from across the country, will select the winning grant applications. In 2012, the Monsanto Fund plans to award nearly $2.3 million to eligible school districts across the country. To see the full list of finalists please visit GrowRuralEducation.com America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education started with a successful pilot in Illinois and Minnesota, in which farmers were given the opportunity to nominate a

public school district in 165 eligible counties in those two states. The Monsanto Fund awarded more than $266,000 to local schools in 16 CRDs. Now, the program has expanded to 1,245 eligible counties in 39 states.

America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education is sponsored by the Monsanto Fund to help farmers positively impact their communities and support local rural school districts. This program is part of the Monsanto Fund’s overall effort to support rural education and communities.

Another program that is part of this effort is America’s Farmers Grow Communities, giving farmers the opportunity to enter to win $2,500 to donate to their favorite community nonprofit organization in their county. You can participate in this program between Aug. 1 and Nov. 30 by visiting growcommunities.com.

Klenck Literacy Grant), all three elementary schools in the MSD of Mount Vernon will benefit from a new Capstone myON Reader program.

The Capstone Reader allows access to books online via the computer, tablet devices, or smartphones. The program contains the largest integrated library of enhanced digital books with reading supports aligned to the Indiana Academic Standards. For instructional purposes, the program measures, tracks, and can report on each student’s time spent reading, books read, and measures/ forecasts a student’s reading growth. Not only does Capstone allow the students to expand their reading at school, but the program can be accessed anywhere an Internet connection is available making learning a 24/7 reality.

All elementary schools have expanded their classroom use of iPads for instruction from the original pilot initiated last year. At Marrs, all third and fourth graders will have an iPad assigned to them for use at school.

At Farmersville, the fourth and fifth graders will be using the iPad carts daily, as well. West Elementary has

See more on Facebook. expanded the number of iPads for daily use through Lights On After School (LOAS) grant funding. Additional iPads are also now available for a broader use of in-class technology during the regular school day.

Marrs and Farmersville Elementary Schools continue as STEM Academies offering new opportunities for students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The two schools will utilize the SwISTEM Resource Center at the University of Southern Indiana to borrow equipment such as dissecting or compound microscopes, spectrometers, or incubators.

At West, the LOAS program launches on August 27, 2012. The LOAS program is funded through a federal 21stCentury Community Learning Center grant providing after school programming for students in Grades 2-5 and learning opportunities for parents through a Family Matters partnership on a monthly basis. Programming at LOAS will again focus on literacy, math, and character development. Nightly homework help and a healthy snack are also a part of every session. Lights On After School runs Monday-Thursday from 2:45-5:15 p.m.; bus service is available for transportation home.

New at MVJHS: Faces in the office at the Mount Vernon Junior High have changed. New at the helm as principal is Kyle Jones.

Mr. Jones was the former assistant principal at the junior high. Our community welcomes Jerad Shockley who is replacing Mr. Jones as assistant principal. Dianna Reeves will serve in as the new main office secretary.

During the fall of 2011, the MSD of Mount Vernon explored the concept of providing a one-to-one (1:1) computing pilot for our corporation. A one-to-one initiative would provide every student and teacher with a personal digital wireless device that includes up-to-date software (including on-line textbooks) and access to the Internet at school and at home. In reviewing the research last fall, positive results abounded.

Repeated reports of student engagement and achievement, improved attendance and behavior, and self-directed, motivated learning supported the implementation of an eLearning 1:1 initiative. Planning continued throughout the 2011-2012 school year for the transition to digital eLearning, and an initiative was launched that would target the 6th graders at the Mount Vernon Junior High during the 20122013 year.

Thus, an eLearning 1:1 iPad initiative will begin in all sixth grade classes this school year. Each 6th grader will be assigned an iPad which will house virtual textbooks for all subjects taught at that level

(except Language Arts) and an endless cache of learning applications. Students will be able to utilize these “virtual learning tools” not only daily in the classroom, but at home, as well. The kickoff for the 6th grade iPad pilot initiative will be August 27.

Watch for more information on this exciting evening that will involve the 6th grade student and his/her parents or guardians.

Don’t forget that Studio 92, a student oriented broadcast studio, is integrated into several curricular areas for all grades at the Mount Vernon Junior High. Tune in to watch student productions on YouTube and Facebook. Please don’t forget to “LIKE” all of our schools on Facebook.

Mount Vernon Junior High School continues with Honors classes this year in English and Mathematics in Grades 6-8 as well as in Science and Social Studies in Grades 7 & 8. Honor courses at MVJHS are designed for students who demonstrate the potential to be successful in rigorous academic coursework. An honors class parallels the curriculum offered in the corresponding regular class, but it provides more rigor and challenge to a range of students who are high achieving and/or academically talented to maximize student achievement.

Teaching and learning are focused on big ideas, themes, principles, and issues. Multiple criteria are utilized to identify students participating in the honors programming.

All students at the Junior High will experience instruction based on data driven direction thanks to a grant from the Indiana Department of Education that allows the implementation of Acuity testing/ software. Acuity aligns with the Indiana state standards and the ISTEP+ test, providing teachers with guidance on the individual needs of students in Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. Acuity not only tests and directs instruction, but it provides on-line lessons based on each student’s need.

New at MVSH: Like the junior high, Mount Vernon Senior High School welcomes new faces to the office. Tom Russell will be the new principal at the high school. Joining Mr. Russell in administration is Chad Rodgers as Assistant Principal.

Cheryl Zink-Bell continues as secretary in the main office and is joined by Sandy Hobbs.

Kelli Walker will serve as a new counselor.

Mount Vernon Senior High School offers a new Advanced Placement (AP) class in Statistics. Additionally, high school students can earn college credit in 14 Dual-Credit courses and an AP class in Calculus AB. MVSHS continues to offer many varied opportunities through academics, athletics, the arts, and a variety of clubs. Page 5 of 7

Established last year at Mount Vernon Senior High School, the Fine Arts Academy is available for not only Mount Vernon’s students, but anyone in the surrounding area interested in an award winning, cutting-edge arts curriculum.

Musical theatre class, instrumental and vocal music, acting, technical theatre, and traditional and digital visual arts classes prepare students for post-secondary endeavors and arts-related careers. Class scheduling for the Arts Academy is staggered to accommodate half day student requests for students outside the Mount Vernon area. Over forty events each year further the students’ skills and artistic talents, connecting students to the musical, theatrical, and visual art worlds outside the Mount Vernon area.

Technology in the Mount Vernon School District:: As a technology forerunner, the MSD of Mount Vernon delivers quality, 21st century skill development in a safe, comfortable, positive environment. In addition to the eLearning 1:1 program at the Mount Vernon Junior High School, several other new programs and endeavors will begin. Learning.com is a new web-based technology literacy program that allows teachers to instruct students in on-line safety and teaches appropriate on-line behavior.

Learning.com also provides a grade level specific curriculum to improve student learning outcomes in language arts, math, science, and social studies.

Technology Integration Specialists (TIS) help staff and students to not only expand the usage of existing programs but also create a link for expanded learning via technology. This summer, the TIS staff spent two full weeks providing “technology boot camps” that taught staff new techniques and reinforced integrating technology into the classroom. Staff members participated in sessions on Wikis, Windows 7, Web 2.0 tools, iPads in the classroom, and many other topics.

All schools in the MSD of Mount Vernon have Facebook pages and websites that allow the public to keep abreast of happenings at each school building. Daily digital broadcasts from the Mount Vernon Junior High School and pictures and stories of special events at each building can be viewed on Facebook. It serves as a quick update to school activities and can also alert parents to upcoming events and opportunities at each school.

Again, be sure to “LIKE” us on Facebook. Check us out and visit often.

The Parent Internet Viewer (PIV) allows parents to view student’s grades on-line and preview upcoming assignments and tests. The PIV keeps you, as a parent, in the know on your child’s progress at school.

Purdue Weekly Outlook: Anticipating the size of the 2012 corn and soybean crops The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) of the USDA will release the first yield and production forecasts for the 2012 U.S. corn and soybean crops on August 10. The first forecasts of the season are always highly anticipated, but none more than this year as widespread drought conditions have resulted in a wide range of yield and production expectations.

It might be useful to briefly review the NASS methodology for making corn and soybean yield and production forecasts. Data for the forecasts are collected in two separate surveys conducted roughly in the last week of July and the first week of August for the August report. The Agricultural Yield Survey (AYS) queries farm operators in 32 states for corn and 29 states for soybeans asking operators to identify the number of acres to be harvested and to forecast the final average yield. The sample of operators is based on a sophisticated sample design to achieve the desired sample size and each state is expected to achieve a minimum response rate of 80 percent. In 2011, approximately 27,000 operators were surveyed for all crops for the August report. Each operator is surveyed in subsequent months to obtain new forecasts of acreage and yield. Historical relationships indicate that respondents tend to be conservative in early forecasts of final yields (underestimate yield potential), particularly in drought years. This tendency is quantified and factored into official yield forecasts.

The second survey is the Objective Yield Survey (OYS) and is based on an area frame sample of cultivated land in 10 principal states for corn and 11 states for soybeans. Based on the June acreage survey, a random sample of fields is drawn in each state and enumerators visit these fields to take measurements

needed to forecast yields in pre-determined segments of the fields. In 2011 these measurements were taken in 1,920 corn fields and 1,835 soybean fields. For corn, the number of plants and number of ears per segment are counted and the size of the ears is measured. For soybeans, enumerators measure row width and count the number of plants, number of main nodes, lateral branches, dried flowers and pods, and pods with beans in each segment. The data are used to forecast grain weight (yield) per acre. Each segment is visited in September, October, and November (if not yet harvested) to take new measurements and counts to form new yield forecasts. Just before the operator harvests the field, each segment is hand harvested and weighed. The data from the two surveys are combined to forecast average yield and production.

For a fuller description of this process see our publication here and the complete NASS publication here.

USDA makes new yield and production forecasts in September, October, and November with final estimates released in January.

Because yield forecasts are limited by crop maturity and are influenced by subsequent weather, the August yield forecasts tend to have the largest deviation from the final estimates released in January. For the period 1970 through 2010, the August yield forecast for corn ranged from an overestimate of 18.3 percent to an underestimate of 10.1 percent. The middle 50 percent of the forecast errors ranged from an over-estimate of 1.3 percent to an under-estimate of 5.1 percent. For soybeans, the August yield forecast ranged from an overestimate of 16.2 percent to an underestimate of 10.2 percent. The middle 50 percent of the forecast errors ranged from an over-estimate of 3.0 percent to an under-estimate of 4.5 percent. For a more

complete analysis of the historical yield forecast deviations in August, September, October, and November see the post here.

While the USDA's August forecast will provide a benchmark for the size of the 2012 corn and soybean crops, the market will continue to form yield expectations beyond the release of the report. Analysts use a combination of techniques to judge yield potential, including crop condition ratings, crop weather models, satellite imagery, and analogue years. In the case of analogue years, there were six previous years since 1960 when the U.S. average corn yield was more than 10 percent below the unconditional trend yield.

The shortfall in those years ranged from 10.4 percent to 25.6 percent and averaged 17.5 percent. A U.S. average yield 17.5 percent below trend would result in a 2012 average yield of 131 bushels, while a yield 25.6 percent below trend would result in an average yield of 118 bushels. There were also six previous years since 1960 when the U.S. average soybean yield was more than 10 percent below the unconditional trend yield.

The shortfall in those years ranged from 11.8 percent to 19.3 percent and averaged 14.9 percent. A U.S. average yield 14.9 percent below trend would result in a 2012 average yield of 36.7 bushels, while a yield 19.3 percent below trend would result in an average yield of 34.8 bushels.

In addition to yield, the size of the 2012 crops will be influenced by the magnitude of harvested acreage.

Harvested acreage, particularly for corn grain, may be unusually small in relation to planted acreage, further reducing production potential. The corn and soybean markets continue to trade smaller and smaller crops, but prices may not yet reflect the full extent of production shortfalls.

ADA compliance is MV goal

By Pam Robinson After approving a sewer tap-in for Quality Magnetite LLC, the Mount Vernon Board of Public Works and Safety approved $9,800 Thursday for Bernardin Lochmueller & Associates, or BLA, to proceed with ‘Milestone 1’ and help the city comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA. ‘Milestone 1’ is the first of four milestones the city needs to complete by December 31, 2012, in order to remain eligible for federal grant monies.

The four milestones require no construction from the city now, only the completion of a written plan to stay compliant with ADA guidelines. To receive federal grant monies, all jurisdictions in the region with 50 or more employees, including volunteers, must complete the milestone requirements.

During her presentation, Judy Thomann Chase Wildeman and Stan Elpers of ECI lay new concrete and waterproof the MSD with BLA explained that ‘Milestone 1’ puts of Mount Vernon Central Office. Photo by Zach Straw. See more on Facebook. an ADA coordinator in place for the city and sets forth a readily accessible ADA grievance procedure. She added that the city website will post the ADA grievance procedure with a user-friendly process for filing grievances.

Also important to reaching ‘Milestone 1’ is the creation of a traffic and pedestrian generator map for all state and local intersections as well as the input of the community in pub-

lic meetings.

Thomann said that the City of Mount Vernon created an ADA transition plan as far back as 1990, but the document should have been fluid.

Later in the evening, Thomann repeated her presentation to the Mount Vernon City Council to inform members about the Board of Works’ decision and what it meant.

In other business: • The Board approved the use of the city credit card and car for police officer Collins to complete the one-day August 6 training in Plainfield, Ind., on dealing with aggressive animals.

• The Board granted permission to Mount Vernon Fire Chief Wes Dixon to collect donations for the Muscular Dystrophy Association at the intersection of 4th and Main streets on Saturday, August 18, starting at 8 a.m.

• Street Commissioner Roy Maynard announced that street paving will be completed between August 1 and 6, and the neighborhoods will be notified. Maynard expressed gratitude for the economic development income tax, or EDIT, monies that are paying for the paving.

The Mount Vernon Board of Public Works and Safety will meet again Thursday, August 9, 2012, 4 p.m., in the City Hall Annex.

“

always wanted a pony, but Grandma wouldn’t let me. I rebelled and got six of them,” states Jamie Rexing, owner of Lil’ Rexing’s Pony Express at 6811 West Franklin, just 1/8 mile south of Busler’s on Hwy 62.

Now Rexing shares her good fortune. For the past year, she has put on pony parties for children as young as two years old at her 10-acre West Franklin family homestead. Townies and farm kids alike have slipped into the saddle while Rexing and her husband Jeremy have led the ponies around the riding ring in their corral.

Apple, Billy Bob, Tiffany and Tyson take turns in the ring. Rexing holds out Smoke, the alpha pony that her family rides, and the one-year-old Rain, yet to wear a saddle. Smoke and Rain stay in the stable to entertain kids inclined only to feed and pet the animals.

While waiting their turn to ride a pony, kids may also feed and pet the three little pigs—the black pot bellies Adam and Maggie and their baby Baylee—and the goat named Tori.

“I love pigs,” Rexing gushes. “I would suggest pigs to anybody. You can even potty train them. “ Or carry them in a purse as Rexing did Adam last year when he was still a piglet. Not surprisingly, Adam is also leash trained.

Rexing has a reserve of party games, but so far no one has ever wanted to play them. When kids tire of or shy away from the animals, a large playground provides climbing equipment, swings and slides for entertainment.

“We’re very simple,” Rexing admits without apology. “It doesn’t look like anything fancy here, but the kids love it.”

Rexing’s enthusiasm for her animals is surely contagious. She talks about them as if they were one of her two children, son Alex (8) and daughter Emily (11). The smallest of the ponies, Apple, is beloved by the smallest of people—toddlers. Another pony, Billy Bob, found at a Corydon horse rescue, requires extra TLC and food since his companion ponies take advantage of his backward, bashful ways. Billy Bob has earned the title of Rexing farm mascot with his sweet disposition. Tiffany, colored brown and white much like Apple, loves the farm and the riding ring and whinnies pitifully if her owners try to take her on an outing.

Yet, perhaps most amazing is Tyson. The 20-year-old pony aims to please. His solid white body has served as a paint canvas for many youngsters. Any time a kid wants a ‘My Little Pony’ party, for example, Tyson receives a fresh coat of paint to meet the ‘My Little Pony’ color standard.

The ponies often dress for the occasion of par-

ties as well. Billy Bob may sport a birthday hat or cowboy hat while Tiffany prances in a pink tutu.

Rexing hosts simple farm visits throughout the week for those interested in just spending some time with the animals. The ponies get a break from rides, and folks can pack a lunch and enjoy the view from one of six shaded picnic tables.

Donations only are accepted for farm visits.

For those who can’t come to the farm, Rexing will bring the farm to them. Just this summer, she took ponies to a ‘horse camp’ at New Beginnings church. Local preschools and elementary schools have been delighted with a visit from one of the pigs. A local nursing home has booked an upcoming appearance from Apple, the pint-sized pony.

Pony parties at the farm run $100 an hour; offsite pony parties cost $120 an hour. Rexing places no limit on the age or number of guests, but does restrict riders to no more than 120 pounds. She says a pony party is ideal for kids ages 2 through 10.

For more information, readers may call Rexing at 985-3175 or check out her Facebook page, Lil’ Rexing’s Pony Express.

Wassmer and his Lady Vikings enjoy successful weekend

By Dave Pearce Posey County’s most decorated golfer had a busy weekend. On Friday, he helped coach the North Posey High School girls’ golf team to their second straight Mount Vernon Invitational golf title. On Saturday and Sunday, Wassmer shot rounds of 68 and 65 to take a place atop the leaderboard in the Evansville Courier and Press Men’s Invitational.

Much like her coach, North Posey junior Maggie Camp claimed medalist honors at Mount Vernon. Camp shot a 75 at Western Hills Country Club course in Mount Vernon to help her team take the trophy.

“We won but our scores are still not as good as they can be,” Wassmer said of his team’s effort. “But they are getting there.”

Early so far this season, the girls have played in three invitational tournaments.

“We finished eighth out of 21 teams down at Fuzzy’s (Zoeller) Course down at Covered Bridge,” Wassmer said. “I think we finished fifth or sixth at the Gibson Southern Invitational but we didn’t play very well. Although Maggie finished second individually.”

Wassmer said he is proud of his team’s accomplishment but he knows they still have some improving to do.

“I just want to say that we still have our best golf ahead of us,” Wassmer said. “The girls are working hard and before it is over, I think we are going to have a pretty good year.

Obviously we would like to get out of our sectional again and contend to get to state. We still have a lot of work to do before we get there. We would like to win the PAC again and get a chance to make it to state.”

Camp represented North Posey at the State Golf Championships last year and everyone returned from last year’s regional-qualifying team. Three other golfers have joined the team this season, Wassmer’s daughter, Lauren Gibbs, and Madison Werry.

Mount Vernon, who hosted Saturday’s Invitational, had only two girls go out for golf this year so they did not register a team score.

After watching his team take the title on Friday, Wassmer had pressing issues of his own over the weekend.

Brad Niemann, Wassmer and former USI and Mater Dei player Nick Frazer all made a date to play together Saturday in the third round of the Evansville Championship at Rolling Hills. All finished with two-day totals of 133. Wassmer’s 68 came at Helfrich and the 65 came at Fendrich.

The trio holds a one-shot lead over former Princeton Tiger and 2010 champion Matt Hancock, who stands at 134; three shots on Sean Stone, the 2012 IHSAA individual and team state champion from Harrison, who’s at 5-under 136; and four shots on Ryan Terry and Marty Summers, who are

Celebrating the second Mount Vernon Invitational Golf Tourney championship in a row are North Posey Viking golfers Shelby Ackerman, Maggie Camp, Taylor Patton, Kendall Crowder, and Allison Koester. at 137.

Wassmer showed onlookers and players alike on Sunday why he has been so successful not only at this tournament but in the game of golf.

The nine-time former champion drove the ball hole high and three feet away from the flag at the 360-yard par-4 sixth hole. He then sank the putt for eagle.

“I hit it right where I was looking,” said Wassmer, who shot 65 Sunday. “I figured if I carried it to that downslope

(which he did) it had a chance, but then I didn’t see my ball until I looked on the green and it was pretty close. I’m happy with my round and my position,” Frazer struggled to an even-par 71 Saturday at Helfrich.

Then he made six straight birdies at one point Sunday and finished with an 8-under 62, easily the best round of the day.

“Rolling Hills will be tougher next weekend,” Wassmer said following Sunday’s 65,” Wassmer said.

Locals struggle at nine-year-old tourney, Highland wins The Wild Hogs did well in pool play at the recent nine-year-old baseball tournament at the North Posey Youth Club baseball diamond, but once they got into the tourney? Not so much.

The North Posey-based All-Star team dropped both of their games in the double-elimination portion of the recent tourney, losing to Evansville East 11-5 in seven innings and 8-6 to the Stringtown Bombers in the second game, after going 2-0 and getting the top seed

in pool play.

Despite the losses, Coach Chris Wehmer was pleased with his team’s effort.

“I was very proud of the Wild Hogs,” Wehmer said.

“We went into the tournament as the number one seed; they had a heads-up attitude and just did an excellent job of playing the game of baseball. We got lots of compliments about the way the field was prepared from the fans and umpires and we’re really, really pleased with how the

tournament went this weekend.”

The tourney was intended to help develop North Posey Youth Baseball, Wehmer said, adding that the weeklong event provided good competition with teams coming from Evansville, Vincennes and Henderson.

“It was a good time,” he said. “It was a competitive tournament and we worked hard to prepare a competitive tournament and just to have fun. They’re nineyear-old kids. Just to have fun.”

Wehmer thanked the Youth Club for the use of the field and commended the effort of each of the six teams in the tourney, especially considering the hot weather which was prevalent during the event.

Wehmer and his assistants also thanked the Poseyville Fire Department for their efforts in keeping the field watered during the tourney.

The Wild Hogs consisted of Jadyn Wehmer, Gaige Kihn, Kyle LaVanchy, Owen Spears, Austin Todd, Ethan Lyke, Drake Farrar, Clay Will, Lucas Marvel,

Ian Heinlein, Evan Lyke and Sam Belt. Wehmer’s assistants were Wally Theim, Jeremy LaVanchy and Brent Lyke.

Highland won the tourney, beating Evansville East 14-6 in the championship game with a pair of five-run innings.

East, Highland, Vincennes and Henderson each went 1-1 in pool play, while Stringtown was 0-2 ahead to the playoffs.

Highland topped the Bombers 7-3 and Henderson 13-3 before dropping East into the consolation bracket 14-4. East beat Vincennes 8-1 and 10-7 before edging their fellow Evansville team 3-2 and forcing a second game.

Vincennes routed Henderson 14-2 before ousting the Bombers 8-5.

‘Posey Connection’ helps Princeton to reach state competition Princeton American Legion Post 25 revived its baseball program four years ago and recently won its first Regional championship in 22 years—with a little help from a neighboring county.

Nick Scheller shut down host Rockport for six innings and then fellow North Posey product Tyler Stolz finished up as Princeton routed Post 254 19-4 in the first game of the championship round at Joe Hargis Field.

After forcing a second game, North Posey’s Jerad Meliff sparked a ninthinning rally that put Princeton past Rockport 9-5 and punched their ticket to a weekend trip to Terre Haute.

Scheller raised his record to 4-0 entering the state tournament by scattering eight hits and giving up four runs, just half of which were earned, in six innings.

Dillon Whitten backed up Scheller at the plate with three hits, as Princeton collected 18 blows and took advantage of four Rockport errors.

With Princeton trailing 5-3 in the second game, Meliff opened the top of the ninth with a walk and Dakota Rogers followed with a single. Scheller then moved up both runners with a sacrifice before Whitten tied the game at 5-5 with a two-run single.

Colton Martin drove in a

run in the ninth inning when he hit into a fielder’s choice which allowed Ryan Lasley (whose bloop single drove in pinch-runner Cory Lamey with the go-ahead run) to score, then an errant throw by the Rockport shortstop brought in the last run of the inning for Princeton.

Yet another North Posey product, K.D. Patton, started the nightcap for Princeton and had his ups and downs, leading 3-2 before Rockport chased him with three runs in the bottom of the seventh.

Princeton had to battle back through the consolation bracket to reach the championship game after falling to Evansville Eugene Pate 1-0 in the tournament

THANK YOU FROM THE FAMILY OF JERRY WILDER On behalf of our mother and family, we would like to thank dad’s friends, church family, co-workers, golf buddies, and neighbors for the love and support you have given us through his illness and passing. Your thoughts and prayers continue to sustain us through this difficult time.

We have cried much, but have also laughed at the stories about him that you shared with us and are touched to hear of the impact he had on each of you.

Dad truly lived well, laughed often, and loved much. He worked hard, provided for his family, and enjoyed his work. He did not have earthly riches, but was truly rich with God’s blessings of family and friends. He adored his grandchildren and great-grandchildren and was their biggest fan.

His smile, quick wit, and positive outlook was encouraging and genuine. Dad had a terrific sense of humor and was always ‘wonderful’ when anyone would ask how he was, even through the trials and struggles of late. He was a gift given to us as an example of what a father and husband should be, and we are forever grateful. He is dearly loved and forever missed.

DAVID, LAURA, AND MICHAEL WILDER.
