Neighborhood dispute
Court upholds protection order By Larry Limpf News Editor news@prespublications.com
“
“
An appeals court has upheld the issuance of civil stalking protection order against a Clay Township resident accused of harassing his neighbors. The Ohio Sixth District Court of Appeals earlier this month ruled in favor of Dorothy Fondessy, of N. Genoa-Clay Center Road, who was issued a protection order in November 2011 by the Ottawa County Common Pleas Court. The order directs Anthony Simon, a neighbor of Dorothy and her husband Wayne, to stay at least 25 feet away from the Fondessys and to not have any contact with them. Simon is also to not have any item of his enter the Fondessy’s property. Simon filed an appeal about a month after the lower court issued the protection

order, which is in effect for five years. According to court documents, the Fondessys have lived at their home since 1974 and Dorothy’s uncle, Charles Simon, lived next door. Charles, Anthony’s father, died in 2005 and Anthony inherited the residence. A property line dispute between the Fondessys and Anthony was resolved with a survey but confrontations between Dorothy and him continued. She alleged he “discharged lawn clip-
pings” into a pond of the Fondessys that abuts the property line and ran his mower into hers at the line. “Dorothy stated that although appellant has never directly threatened her, throughout all these exchanges, his verbiage and rage have caused her to fear him and have caused her mental distress,” the court record says. She testified that she feared the confrontations were especially harmful to her husband, who had health problems. Simon admitted using profanities and that the confrontations were “heated” and upsetting to all three but denied any name calling alleged by the Fondessys. The appeals court noted that the Ohio Revised Code prohibits menacing by stalking and states: “No person by engaging in a pattern of conduct shall knowingly cause

Metroparks public relations director Scott Carpenter said an open house for the first Toledo Area Metropark in Jerusalem Township drew “a nice turnout” to the township hall Tuesday night. “The turnout demonstrates the significance of this project and the high level of public interest,” Carpenter said. The 1,000 acre park, located on the current Howard Farms property west of Metzger Marsh, will be unlike any other Metropark in that it will be the first located along Lake Erie’s coast. It will be the Metroparks largest park in its system, next to Oak Openings. At the open house, over 100 residents talked with staff from the Metroparks, the Ohio Division of Wildlife, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Ducks Unlimited, and Smith Group JJR, the consultants designing the park. Ducks Unlimited, the consultants designing the wetland, is a national organization whose mission is to create and preserve habitat for North American waterfowl. Smith Group is the consulting firm designing the park. All three township trustees were there, too. “It could be a real jewel if they do it right and if they have enough money,” trustee Dave Bench said. “The old waterway that used to go through, they are going to hopefully raise Howard Road and they’ll put in a bridge there, and they will canoe and kayak in between Ward’s Canal and Cooley Canal. “It could be a real asset for Jerusalem Township — a place to come to. That’s what I’m thinking,” Bench continued. Many of the residents arrived because they were concerned about drainage. “The big issue, more or less, is how water is going to be taken care of, how water is currently being removed, and they are looking at what is proposed to take water off that property to make sure what we are proposing is not going to affect the residents who live nearby,” said Patrick Barnowski Bench and trustee Joe Kiss, who has sat on meetings that dealt with the new pumping system to be installed, says the property will be drained better than ever before.

Residents weigh in Continued from front page Alex Lytten, who lives within a block from the property, is a 2013 Toledo Early College High School graduate and begins classes in environmental science at the University of Toledo this fall, says he had other issues. “I was mostly concerned about how it’s going to affect the people who live in the community,’ Lytten said. “Basically, things like, ‘Where are they going to have access to the park from the community and possibly four-wheeler and ATV trails?’ I know everybody rides through the fields as it is, but it’s going to be a problem for them when they start building it and they are going to want to tell these people, ‘Hey, you can’t ride here.’ They’ve been doing it for 50 years, so how are they going to get past that?” “As long as it can be done to make a good place for the public while maintaining a balance and connection with the people in the neighborhood, I feel it will be a very strong and good thing for the community,” Lytten continued.
Howard Farms is located on SR 2, west of the Metzger Marsh State Wildlife Area. watching, hunting, canoeing and kayaking. The creek and canal should be deep and wide enough for small watercraft and, although there is no lake shoreline, access to Lake Erie can be had via Ward’s Canal, the waterway that separates the property from Metzger Marsh. Schetter envisions working with federal and state officials to provide access to Metzger’s and the marshes and refuges east of it. There will be few structures on the land, a restroom facility for sure, and some interpretative message boards. Carpenter said 45 residents filled out comments sheets at the open house Tuesday, and others said they would mail them in. That information will be taken into consideration before plans are drafted. “We will review the comments and then develop more detailed plans to present at another meeting in October,” Carpenter said.

Eight mile stretch The new park will create a nearly eightmile continuous stretch of public lands that includes Metzger Marsh, Ottawa Wildlife Refuge, Crane Creek State Park and Magee Marsh. Throw in Maumee Bay State Park and Cedar Point Wildlife Refuge to the west and 11,687 acres of unique wetlands are or will be preserved for waterfowl habitat and our enjoyment. Tim Schetter, Ph.D., director of natural resources for the Metroparks of the Toledo Area, anticipates that Cedar Creek, which is currently pumped dry on the property to allow for farming, will be restored and meander two and half miles through the park before connecting with Ward’s Canal and emptying into Lake Erie. A lot of the vegetation common to wetlands will spring up naturally, once water is reintroduced. Habitat will also be created for turtles, snakes and other marsh denizens. Schetter anticipates plans to be finalized by the end of this year. Schetter said the preliminary estimate for restoration is $4 million. Metroparks and the other partners are looking for grant opportunities to fund the project. Schetter envisions the public will be able to use the new park for hiking, bird
The new park could be open to the public in three to five years if the schedule doesn’t hit any snags, Schetter said. The land, currently a working farm, was
purchased with two partners in 2008 for $6 million. Schetter said the Ohio Division of Wildlife contributed $3 million; the Clean Ohio Fund $1.8 million and the Metroparks’ land acquisition fund $1.2 million. This is the single largest purchase in Metroparks’ history both in acreage and cost. Naturally, the partnership came with caveats. Two of them are that some portion must be open to hunting and no more than 20 percent of the land can be developed into buildings and trails. The Metroparks’ board voted at its April board meeting to retain Smith Group/ JJR from Ann Arbor for $52,375 to collaborate with Ducks Unlimited to develop a park plan. The resolution calls for the two firms to “create habitat enhancements that also create opportunities for fishing, wildlife viewing, small craft boating, hunting, interpretive messaging and research.”

Court sets schedule for mall razing By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Northwood city officials are taking a wait-and-see position as a court order takes effect for the Woodville Mall to be razed and material and debris to be removed. Wood County Common Pleas Court Judge Reeve Kelsey issued the order after an Aug. 8 hearing with representatives of the city and current and former owners of the mall, which has been closed to the public due to health and building code violations. The city filed a lawsuit Jan. 17 against Soleyman Ghalchi, of Great Neck, New York, who bought the mall for $800,000 in December and the seller, Mehran Kohansieh, also known as Mike Cohen, of Little Neck, New York. Two companies incorporated by Ghalchi and Kohansieh – Ohio Plaza Shopping Center and Woodville Mall Realty Management respectively – were also named defendants in the suit. Under Judge Kelsey’s order: • The defendants have until Sept. 2 to construct a fence around the property’s perimeter and maintain the fence until the abatement is completed. • The defendants have until Sept. 30 to submit abatement plans to the city engineer, including a plan for the safe removal of asbestos. • The mall’s structures and debris must be removed by May 2, 2014. • Asphalt and cement slabs on the premises are to be removed by July 31, 2014. The order prohibits any demolition work from negatively impacting a separately-owned Sears store – the last retail outlet at the site – between Nov. 15 and Jan. 15, 2014. “We’ve been in contact with Sears’s real estate department and their attorneys and we’re doing what we can to make Sears

as successful as they possibly can be during this transition period,” said Bob Anderson, city administrator. A judgment against Ohio Plaza Shopping Center and Woodville Mall Realty Management of $1.69 million would be imposed as a lien against the property, he said, if the owners didn’t complete the demolition and the city decided to do it. The judge also ordered Woodville Mall Realty Management to remove the structure housing the former Elder Beerman store and granted the city a judgment of $750,000

On Sunday, July 21, CedarCreek Church hosted its second annual MOAB – “Mother of All Baptisms” – at the Perrysburg Campus. “The real celebration focused around over 500 people being baptized outside, surrounded by friends, family and their church,” said Lee Powell, founding pastor. “Words can’t explain the excitement in the atmosphere.” “The stories, the life change – it is just incredible,” added campus pastor Tom Martin. One such story was Mandy Lehman, who a year ago had a near-death experience. For the past six months she has been separated from her boys as she was confined to a rehab facility. “How cool is it that we were able to raise over $5,000 to help reunite Mandy with her boys and help them get a fresh start. This just makes MOAB even more special,” added Ben Snyder, regional campus director. For more information on CedarCreek, visit www.cedarcreek.tv.
which would be assessed against the mall property to cover costs for preparing a plan for its demolition and removal. Asbestos removal has to comply with state regulations, Anderson said. The city also requires a bond be posted and a permit for any demolition work. City police made a recent arrest of someone in the building illegally. “It would be a good commercial site still,” Anderson said, referring to the nearby highway systems and infrastructure in place.

Neighborhood dispute (Continued from front page) another person to believe that the offender will cause physical harm to the other person or cause mental distress to the other person.” In April, Simon filed a lawsuit in Ottawa County Common Pleas Court against the township police chief and a patrol officer, alleging malicious prosecution. The lawsuit also names Wayne and Dorothy Fondessy as defendants. According to the lawsuit and court records, Chief Terry Mitchell initiated a criminal complaint around Sept. 19, 2011 against Simon, charging him in Ottawa County Municipal Court with criminal trespassing and disorderly conduct. The charges stemmed from a property disagreement Simon has had with the Fondessy’s but were dismissed in April 2012. In his lawsuit, Simon contends Chief Mitchell’s allegations “had no reasonable basis and lacked probable cause.” Patrol officer Jamie Blausey is also named as a defendant in the Simon lawsuit. Statements made by the Fondessys to Blausey and Chief Mitchell resulted in the charges being filed against Simon but were ‘… untrue or misleading and had no reasonable basis or underlying cause for a criminal complaint,” the lawsuit says. The lawsuit contends Chief Mitchell contacted Simon’s attorney around June 28, 2011 – about when the Fondessy’s statements were taken by police – and threatened criminal action against Simon if he didn’t correct a drainage issue on his property. “…Mitchell abused the legal process by using it for ulterior motive or purpose of coercing Simon to comply with civil issues being raised by his neighbors…Wayne and Dorothy Fondessy,” the lawsuit says. “Such purpose was not legitimate, regular, or legal in the use of the criminal justice system.”
Samaritans help woman out of “pickle” By Tammy Walro Press Staff Writer twalro@presspublications.com At the age of 87, Audrey Yackee has no plans to hop on a motorcycle and hit the open highway, however the Martin woman has become a very strong advocate for all motorists to take care to keep an eye out and watch for motorcyclists on the road. According to Yackee, if it weren’t for
a couple of Good Samaritans riding motorcycles, she would have been in a real pickle after a mishap in her yard one recent Sunday afternoon. On July 28, she was tidying up her yard, picking up sticks and pulling weeds. As she tugged on a bigger weed, she fell backward, hitting her head on the ground. “I laid there for a minute or two and eventually tried to sit up,” she said, adding that she knew that her ailing husband
wouldn’t hear cries for help from inside the house. “Just then, I heard two motorcycles going by.” As she tried to figure out how she’d get up, she heard the sounds of the motorcycles getting louder. “Apparently, they had seen me, thought maybe I might need help, so they went down to the first crossroads and turned around,” she said. “As they approached, they asked, ‘Are you hurt? Can you walk?’ Yackee recalled. “I told them I didn’t think I could get up by myself, so they each got ahold of me and helped me up.” The pair helped her to her back door and into the house, again asking her if she was sure she was ok. After she assured them she would be ok, they headed for their bikes, but not before pulling Yackee’s cartful of yard debris up to the back door for her. And not before Yackee could get their names – Don Kreager and Gary Moritz. “I just really wanted to thank those two guys for coming back to give me help,” Yackee said. “And to remind all drivers to watch out for the motorcyclists on the road.” As for Yackee, she suffered a headache after her tumble backward. “I went to my doctor and he checked me over and said I was ok,” she said. “I guess I shouldn’t have been out pulling weeds, especially in the heat.”

Man’s Diamond Dash nets $787 in tools, model trains Workplace
“
It made it fun. It's not every day that you have the opportunity to just sprint through the store and grab whatever you want.
“
John LaPorte ended his 75-second shopping spree through Gladieux Do It Best Home Center by picking up two model train cars for his father’s hobby. LaPorte, a Clay grad and Sylvania resident, was in Oregon Saturday, Aug. 3 to visit his father, Dave, a Curtice resident, and his grandfather who was recovering from heart surgery at Mercy St. Charles Hospital. The busy day also included a wedding shower for LaPorte’s fiancée. While the shower was being held, LaPorte and his father went to Gladieux’s. The impromptu visit paid dividends when his name was drawn as the winner of a 75-second shopping spree called the Diamond Dash in honor of the Gladieux family celebrating 75 years in business. LaPorte was given a half hour to peruse the store before making his dash. He scooped up these nine items: Milwaukee M18 Fuel Drill Driver Kit; Milwaukee M12 Multi-Tool Kit; Black & Decker Finish Sander; 8pc gear wrench Set; 20-pocket tool pouch; trouble light w/25’ cord; Crystal Blue pond dye and two model train tank cars representing local refining history, one Sunoco car and one Gulf car. Brandon Ziegelhofer, Gladieux coowner, said the take totaled $787.55. LaPorte picked out some tools he had wanted for some time, but the execution of his planned route fell apart. He wrote in an email, “During the run I was actually going so fast that I blew right past some of the things I had picked out, so I started grabbing other things I wanted as I saw them. I also told my Dad to pick out some things he wanted and I’d get them for him, especially considering it was his idea to go. He picked out the model train cars and needed the pond chemicals, so I made sure to get those as well.” Did he succumb to the pressure? “It made it fun, “he said. “It’s not every day that you have the opportunity to just sprint through the store and grab whatever you want. Going as fast as you can for 75 seconds is a workout too. I was a bit winded by the end. I’m thankful to everyone at Gladieux for the opportunity, it was a lot of fun and I walked away with some nice loot.” The day-long event attracted a couple hundred well-wishers, Ziegelhofer said.

Playground taking shape The first example of the new Metroparks ‘signature’ playgrounds is about to break ground at Pearson Metropark. Artists Doug Kampfer and Jeremy Links (pictured), of Graphite Design + Building, Toledo, have created detailed, natural-looking pieces of art that also function as play equipment.

The “tree” is being constructed in a former gymnasium at the Blue Creek Conservation Area in Whitehouse. Volunteers from the BP-Husky Refinery and their families are removing the existing playground to make room for the new playground. (Metroparks Photo)

Plat change requested for Home Depot warehouse By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A plat to establish a new road and dedicate additional right-of-way along Pemberville Road in Troy Township for public use has been approved by the Wood County Planning Commission. The plat is part of a larger development plan that prepares the site for a proposed warehouse and distribution center for Home Depot Corp. The new road created by the plat would be named Eastwood Drive. The site is along the west side of Pemberville Road on property owned by Troy-Dominion Energy about 3,300 feet south of Route 20, according to data compiled by the planning commission staff. Garling Road is south of the parcel, which is zoned Business - Planned Unit Development. “One of the items needed was a dedicated road to access the site with addition-
al right-of-way needed along Pemberville Road. This plat meets this need,” the staff recommendation says. The plat covers a road with 80 feet of right-of-way with an additional section of right-of-way being dedicated along Pemberville Road. About seven acres between the proposed Eastwood Drive and Pemberville Road are being dedicated. Dave Steiner, director of the planning commission, said the recommendation will be forwarded to the county commissioners who would actually dedicate the right-ofway for the roads. An enterprise zone agreement that establishes a property tax abatement package for Home Depot was approved in June. Lake Twp. zoning change requested The planning commission staff is also recommending approval of a zoning change request in Lake Township.

loss. In some cases, the ambiguity resolves, people regain their health or missing persons are found, but often the ambiguity remains and there may never be closure. Dealing with these situations requires the ability to live with ambiguity. Usually there is no easy answer, and the temptation to solve these problems only exacerbates the experience of ambiguous loss, because it holds out the prospect of closure or resolution when there is none. “Lord, you are the God who saves me; day and night I cry out to you.

Church Worship Guide There are many situations where we experience loss ambiguously. A family member suffering from a brain injury or who is becoming senile certainly fits the criteria for ambiguous loss, because they are physically present but psychologically absent. Homesickness is also a case of ambiguous loss because the person missed can be psychologically present, on the phone, for instance, but be physically absent. Choosing to move away from home or to break up with a romantic partner are clear cases of ambiguous loss. Missing persons, and cases where someone is lost are particularly difficult forms of ambiguous

The Centennial Committee wishes to thank the citizens for coming out to our events. We had great weather and an exceptionally successful vintage baseball game and children’s baseball skill contests, topped off by a beautiful fireworks display last Saturday, July 10. Hot dogs, drinks and snacks sold for 25 cents each and many families were able to enjoy a family day out. The committee wishes to thank Ken Gilsdorf, who took on most of the organization of the day’s events. A former CSX employee, member of the Centennial Committee and a Walbridge councilman, Ken was the point man for the fireworks and baseball game between the CSX (which is also celebrating 100 years in Walbridge) and Walbridge players. Ken spent many hours and attended numerous meetings arranging the details for the events. The committee was also grateful that Ken was able to bring in Tony Mass, who had coached little league in Walbridge for 33 years, to be our honorary coach. This is a great group of people who volunteered hours and hours of their time selflessly for the good of the village. We are not done yet. There will be a quilt show at the VFW Sept. 21, a Halloween costumejudging contest in October, and more to wrap up the centennial year. Souvenir booklets, centennial cookbooks, a Walbridge-Lake Alumni book, and t-shirts are still available. Visit the Walbridge Library for details. Darlene Sigler Limmer Rossford
The right thing to do To the editor: There is much discussion about the cause of algae blooms appearing in our state’s waterways. Many factors contribute to the situation, including waste from failed sewer systems and urban-storm runoff. Phosphorus, contained in nutrients that farmers apply to crops, is another element that has been blamed for encouraging algae growth. Ohio’s farmers have invested more than $1 million in new research led by Ohio State University, matched with an additional $1 million by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to monitor nutrients entering waterways and identify farming practices that keep nutrients on the field. The research is being conducted at 32 farms along watersheds throughout the state, including the Maumee River, Upper Scioto River and Grand Lake St. Marys. The findings will provide customized recommendations to help farmers make the best choices for the environment and their crops. Meanwhile, farmers are taking serious action to improve our state’s waterways. Applying the right type and amount of fertilizer at the right time and place. Ohio grain farmers pride themselves as stewards of the land and continue to lead the charge for water improvement. Brent Hostetler, President The Ohio Corn & Wheat Growers Assoc., Plain City, Ohio

Some thoughts to remember on life and karma “When a bird is alive, it eats ants. When the bird is dead, ants eat the bird. Time and circumstances can change at any time. Don’t devalue or hurt anyone in life. You may be powerful today, but remember, time is more powerful than you. One tree makes a million match sticks but only one match is needed to burn a million trees. So be good and do good.” -- Karmic saying Everything in life is interconnected. Your thoughts and behavior affect your journey. Your attitude and actions radiate. We are all equal. Every person comes into and leaves this world in the same way. It’s what you do in between that is significant. Your every action and thought spreads in all directions just like a pebble thrown into a lake causes ripples. What you do determines what you attract. You are a magnet where like attracts like. Your attitude and behavior create an invisible energy that attracts the same and repels the opposite. Mean people attract mean people and circumstances while repelling kindness. Conversely, kindness and consideration attract nice people and favorable circumstances while repelling the undesirable. Be patient. Karma doesn’t care about time. Things happen when they happen. There’s no way to know or predict when events or people are attracted. Don’t miss what’s happening right now because you have a preconceived notion of what you want to happen. Too many people overlook the numerous blessings right in front of them while watching and wait-
Dare to Live
by Bryan Golden ing for something else. It’s as if you don’t open a present you received today because you are waiting for what you will receive tomorrow. Karma doesn’t travel in a straight line. There are many turns, curves, and detours. You may even feel as if you are moving backwards. With the right attitude, things happen for a reason. Often, you have no idea what that reason is or where you are headed. But all things become clear over time. Examine your past. Identify situations that were totally baffling when they occurred but now make sense in hindsight. Apply this realization to the present and future. Although something doesn’t make sense now, the pieces will fall into place. Karma does not discriminate. Your actions, either good or bad, set things in motion. You are at the controls of your destiny. Just as when you are driving, if you go down the wrong road you can change course in order to get back on track to your destination. A successful life is not based on the avoidance of mistakes. It is impossible to live error free. Mistakes are invaluable learning experiences that karma doesn’t
hold against you, when utilized to become a better person. However, repeating the same mistakes only digs a deeper hole. Malicious behavior is far different than mistakes made in spite of good intentions. Seeking to harm others is very bad karma that attracts undesirable things. But how do you handle a situation where other people are trying to harm you? Responding with anger, resentment, or bitterness doesn’t work to your benefit. At the very least, you are poisoning yourself mentally and physically without any mitigating effect on your circumstances. This doesn’t mean you should allow yourself to be taken advantage of. Pursuing appropriate action to protect yourself and counter any adverse behavior is not bad karma. Even with the best karma, bad things can and do happen. It’s just part of life. We don’t always immediately understand the reason things happen. Don’t feel guilty that your actions attracted negative circumstances. It’s not your fault. Doing the right things and treating people well is always the best strategy. It’s simply a matter of sending out what you would like to receive. It’s not magic. Everything is connected.

Larry Michaels and Terry Breymaier, re-enactors who portray Peter and Robert Navarre (Peter’s brother and not to be confused with Robert Navarre of Detroit) will be there. Marshall Lloyd will make a family genealogy presentation. There will be Peter Navarre displays from the Brandville Museum and pioneer games for the children. Robyn Hage, co-author of the Navarre book and coordinator of the program encourages the general public and especially anyone with Navarre family ties to attend.

The Oregon Jerusalem Historical Society will show off its newest rare artifact at the upcoming Peter Navarre Day—a pistol owned by the legendary War of 1812 scout. The 1837 pistol is the generous gift of Dale Redd, a former East Toledo and Oregon resident and a direct descendant of Robert Navarre, the French scribe who settled in the Detroit area in 1729. The pistol was manufactured by A.H. Waters & Company of Millbury, Massachusetts as a flintlock and later converted to a percussion cap. The .54 caliber gun is the Johnson model. Approximately 20,000 were manufactured between 1837 and 1843. The pistol is in fair shape. It has a walnut grip with a piece split out near the hammer and another chip missing on the opposite side. The ramrod is missing and the iron hammer is jagged and worn away, according to information Redd provided with the gift. Maybe not the “mint” artifact a museum would like to display, but definitely one that has a storied history and was used during the time men like Peter Navarre tamed the Great Black Swamp. “It’s tremendous. It’s such a great find,” said Larry Michaels, local historian and coauthor of the book Peter Navarre: War of 1812 Scout. “It’s such an important part of East Toledo and Oregon Township history.” Bill Flanagan, a trustee of the historical society, agrees. He accepted the gift from Redd and will formally present it to the society on Sept. 7 at the annual Peter Navarre Day held at Navarre Park in East Toledo. The gun has special meaning for Flanagan. “The area where he (Navarre) lived—the Presque Isle area—is the area where I lived when I moved to Oregon. I might have went across the steps he traveled.” Peter Navarre may be the most famous person in Northwest Ohio history, Michaels claims in his book. He was a descendent of French kings and Navarre and his family were the first permanent settlers of the East Side. Michaels writes that Navarre “was a genuine war hero at a time when the whole Northwest Territory might have been lost to England, never to become a part of the United States.” Navarre’s role in the war was crucial and his story is worth repeating as we celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Lake Erie. Navarre knew the roads and footpaths through swamp-infested Northwest Ohio and could speak the Indian languages. He delivered messages for General William Henry Harrison from various forts in the region including Fort Meigs and Fort Seneca. When Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry needed more manpower to confront the British fleet on Lake Erie, Navarre led 70 Kentucky sharpshooters to Perry. It is also believed that, after Perry defeated the Brit-

who passed it on to his son Abraham. Abe Navarre, not having an heir, gave the gun to Gordon Miller, the son of Abe’s employer Hiram Miller. Redd inherited the gun from his aunt Mary Miller, which was appropriate as Redd has his own ties to the Navarre family tree. He is the fourth great-grand nephew of Peter Navarre. His mother, Hazle Redd, was Josephine Fassett’s niece and her great-great-grandmother was Catherine (Navarre) DeKay, a direct descendent of Robert Navarre from Detroit. Redd, 92, has no one to pass the gun to and was looking for a permanent home for it. “I wanted the gun to be somewhere where it would be appreciated. They (The Oregon

Inside an old pink trunk that came from her parents’ attic, Lynne Drouillard (left) discovered a scrapbook containing 287 letters written by her father, George (right) to his sweetheart, Myldred, - her mother - while he was serving in World War II.
Pink trunk reveals precious glimpse into wartime love story By Tammy Walro Press Staff Writer twalro@presspublications.com Lynne Drouillard remembers seeing the trunk in the attic of her Nebraska Boulevard home in Toledo when she was a young child. Painted pink, like a princess treasure chest, it looked so big to her. She doesn’t recall whether or not she ever popped the lid up for a peek inside. “If your parents told you something didn’t concern you, you left it alone,” she said. “Even if I did look, I probably figured it didn’t have anything of interest to me – no dolls, or toys or anything.” After her father passed away and her mom moved in with her, the pink trunk came to Lynne’s Lake Township home. “There was so much ‘stuff’ to deal with, so I put it aside and figured I’d go through it someday…when I had time.” After her mom died, Lynne took the trunk with her when she moved to Florida. “I looked and saw there was a scrapbook of some kind and again figured I’d look through it…sometime,” she said. Now living back in Lake Township, the retired teacher found herself with a little time on her hands and thought she’d spend an afternoon looking through the trunk. What she discovered was a treasure beyond what she could have imagined. Inside the Pepto-Bismol pink trunk was her mother’s scrapbook. Tucked safely between the pages were airmail letters, postcards and hand-drawn Christmas cards sent by her father while he was serving in the Army with U.S. Third 36th and 45th Infantry Divisions during World War II. Young Myldred Pirwitz and George O. Benedict grew up in the same German

neighborhood of Link’s Hill in Toledo. By the time they went to high school at Libbey, they were sweethearts. When George was drafted in 1942, he vowed his love to Myldred, but didn’t want to get married until after he returned – in case something happened. Immediately after being shipped out, George started writing to his beloved “Myl.” Apparently, as the correspondences arrived, she tucked them away for safekeeping…perhaps to reread them until George returned home safely. The first letter, dated Dec. 17, 1942, came from Camp Perry. “I won’t be able to say much, but I had to write to you,” George penned. “We’re being shipped tonight. I’ll write you as soon as I get to my next destination.” It closed with “Don’t forget your honey…with love and 20 million XXXXXs (kisses), Your George and future husband.” “As I started reading, I was in awe,” Lynne said. She knew her father had been in the Army – there were medals and mementos tucked in drawers and his old hat hung in the garage. “When my brother and I were in grade school and we had to write about World War II, I asked my dad a little bit about it, but he mostly discussed historical facts, never much about what happened to him.” There were lots of letters to go through. Each one brought tears as the young couple’s love story unfolded. George, an Army machine gunner, had earned three Purple Hearts in 1944 after being wounded in action on a beachhead in Anzio, Italy in January; blown out of a foxhole in Cassino, Italy in June and wounded in Belfort Gap, France in August. Wherever he went, and whatever he

was enduring, George’s letters made it clear that he was very smitten with his sweetheart. Often, the letters were scribbled on the run on paper poised on George’s knee. “He didn’t give her a lot of specifics because I think the letters may have been censored,” Lynne said. “He just wanted to assure her and keep her informed as best he could.” On the envelope of a letter postmarked July 12, 1943, Myldred wrote the notation, “1st wound.” On Nov. 25, 1943, George sent “Greetings from North Africa.” The handmade card included detailed drawings of a Christmas wreath, poinsettias and the message, “Just a very small reminder, that your Honey still loves you. Love and kisses.” Lynne tears up when she reads the letter dated Feb. 7, 1944. “By the time you have received this letter, the War Department will have notified my mother that I was wounded in action. Honey, please don’t worry about me too much. I know you will,” the letter said. “I was wounded on the 30th of January in the morning. We were in the attack on the front. I am wounded on the left side of the head above the ear. The bullet went through my helmet and into my head. I was operated on Feb. 1 in a hospital they had set up in the field. I am now in a hospital in Italy. The bullet is out, so I ought to be ok. “I have the Bible you gave me next to my heart,” George wrote, concluding with, “Love and kisses. Send me a box of cookies and some of your fudge or chocolate candy bars. I love you.” “Exactly two years later from when he wrote that letter, I was born,” Lynne noted. Toward the end of George’s service, with a left hand that was nearly blown apart, he was sent to a hospital in Brooks

General Hospital, Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, Tex. “My mother went from Toledo to Texas on a train and stayed there in a boarding house because she wanted to be near her future husband,” Lynne said. Lynne cried “buckets of tears,” as she made her way through the 287 letters that spanned the period of December 1942 to September 1944. The couple was married April 7, 1945. “It took hours and hours to get through them, mainly because I had to get my emotions under control,” she said. “But it was like a good love story…you have to keep reading to see what happened next. “I just had no idea what they endured as a young couple – what they went through,” she said. “They did their duty, they went forward…they never looked back or complained about anything. “To me, they were like everyone else’s parents. They lived a happy life doing the things moms and dads do. He worked at the post office. She cared for the family and taught Sunday School. They liked to dance. They were affectionate…and happy,” Lynne said. “I’m so grateful for this precious glimpse into their lives before they were Mom and Dad…when they were a young couple so much in love,” she said. Throughout her reading, Lynne took notes. She’s also planning to enlarge some of the letters and make copies for her brother Mark and for George and Myl’s grandchildren and great-grandchildren. When she’s done, she’ll tuck the letters back in the scrapbook, which will be kept safely in the pink trunk. “Why not?” Lynn said. “My mother painted that trunk pink and put them in there – yep, that’s my mother.”

Nominees sought for 5th annual Steel Magnolia Award Nominations have been extended to Aug. 31 for Walbridge-area residents to be considered for the fifth annual Steel Magnolia Award, the Middletown Community Foundation has announced. Women who have overcome obstacles to positively impact the greater Walbridge community have the opportunity to earn recognition as Steel Magnolia Award recipients in the program funded by the AK Steel Foundation. Up to 10 awards are given annually, limited to no more than one recipient per AK Steel U.S. location per year. Each recipient designates a $1,000 donation to an eligible charity of her choice. The award honors women of all ages who have faced personal adversity and have shown exceptional strength, courage, compassion and leadership through their work in support of their communities. Last year’s Walbridge-area honoree was the late Christine Bosch of Millbury, whose parents chose for her $1,000 award to support her former school, Cardinal Stritch High School. Bosch was born with Down syndrome but grew to be a faithful volunteer in her community prior to her death in 2011 shortly before her 35th birthday. She was an active member of St. Jerome Church, being its top festival ticket-seller for two years. She received the ARC Lucas County Volunteer of the Year Award in 2007 for her work with Help Me Grow. For nine years, she served as the manager for the boys’ basketball team at Cardinal Stritch. The school awarded her an honorary posthumous diploma and placed her photo on the school Athletic Wall of Fame last year. Nominations, which should take the form of an essay of 500 words or less, must be submitted to the program administrator, the Middletown Community Foundation, no later than Aug. 31. Nominees must live in the vicinity of an AK Steel facility. Association with AK Steel is not a requirement for nomination and will have no bearing on the nominee’s consideration. Other eligible communities include Ashland, Ky.; Butler, Pa.; Columbus and Rockport, Ind.; and Coshocton, Mansfield, Middletown, West Chester and Zanesville, Ohio. Visit www.mcfoundation.org/steelmagnolia to view complete requirements and obtain a nomination form. For more information, contact the Middletown Community Foundation at 513-424-7369.

Summer program inspires employer Planting, weeding, watering and harvesting may not be anyone’s ideal way to spend the summer, but the youth who work at the Inspired by Nature/Schooner Farms facility performed those tasks so well, they are drawing praise from Don Schooner, owner/operator of the facility. “They have been just stellar,” he said of the youth from the Summer Employment and Training program in Wood County. “They are very, very good workers.” In fact, he was so happy with the participants that he hired one of them permanently. The work program, made possible by the Wood County Department of Job and Family Services, targets income-eligible 16- to 24-year-old youths in the county. The program started May 15 and ends Aug. 31. Employers had to apply to have youth placed at their facility. Schooner said this program fits his needs well, since the youths’ wages are paid by the program and having the summer help has helped him to
keep his costs down. As a Community Support Agriculture facility, Schooner has 40 members who come to him for their produce. The Summer Employment and Training program youth have helped him to maintain the 35 varieties of vegetables he plants along with the blackberries, strawberries and raspberries, herbs for medicinal purposes and kitchen use, and the three ponds at the facility. He said the public can fish in the ponds – for a fee - for tilapia, trout, perch, and other kinds of fish. He uses no pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, or any other chemical compounds on his crops, so the youth has been helpful with planting, weeding, reaping, and any other chores that Schooner needs to be done. About 30 youth have been enrolled in the program throughout the summer at various 11 locations in Wood County. For more information, call LuAnn at 419-353-7407 or 419-334-8911.

Get Growing As summer winds down, start enjoying the garden bounty By J.K. DePeal Garden Writer news@presspublications.com Almost as suddenly as it comes, summer begins to wind down with the “dog days” of August. These late-summer days are filled with the song of the cicadas buzzing and droning on – they almost drown out the bird songs. Vegetables are ripening and green beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, and sweet corn are ready to harvest and enjoy. Along the field edges and roadsides now the wild chicory is in bloom. Northwest Ohio, with its natural limestone deposits, is an ideal area for chicory to grow. The bright, blue, daisy-like flowers of the chicory are the color of a clear August sky and, because it is so commonly seen along roadsides, its German name “Wegewarte” meaning “watcher of the road” is very appropriate. Chicory, though it grows wild, is not an American native plant but came to this country centuries ago from the Mediterranean area. The plant was originally used as a food crop for animals. Different varieties of the plant were also grown and used in salads and the root of “chicory sativum” was roasted, ground, and prepared as a beverage that is very similar to coffee. Chicory root contains a carbohydrate called inulin, which is now used commercially as a sweetener and to add fiber to foods. Inulin acts in the body by slowing down the metabolism of sugars, which makes it a beneficial addition for those with blood sugar conditions. For centuries, chicory was used medicinally as a general tonic, cleansing remedy, and skin ointment. That starry, blue blossom growing wild along our byways has quite a valuable and useful reputation. Summer squash and zucchini are ripening now and can be prepared for enjoying in so many different ways. Sliced raw the squash can be included in salads or served with raw vegetable platters with dips. Boiled, baked or fried, these “early squash” are delicious and a nice “change of taste” for this time of year. Here are two summer squash recipes you may want to try: Broiled savory summer squash – One medium squash will serve four; two medium will serve eight, etc. Slice the squash in thin slices. If the skin is thin, do not peel. Arrange the slices in a greased oblong baking dish. Overlap the slices. Dot the slices with butter or margarine, sprinkle with one-quarter cup grated cheddar cheese and 3 Tbsp. grated onion. Sprinkle salt, pepper, and paprika over the top (to taste). Broil at about four inches from the broiler until the squash is golden brown and tender. Baked zucchini casserole – Use one small zucchini and one tomato for each two people. Slice the zucchini thin and arrange in a layer in a greased casserole or baking pan. Season this layer with salt, pepper and paprika to taste. Dot with butter or margarine and sprinkle with grated onion. Slice tomato and arrange over the zucchini layer. Season this layer to taste with salt, pepper, paprika, grated onion and dot with butter or margarine. Repeat these layers and season each until you have four layers of zucchini and four layers of tomato. On top of the last tomato layer sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and buttered bread crumbs. Cover and bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes. August garden tips: Continue to deadhead annuals and perennials to keep them blooming. Make sure that newly planted shrubs, trees and perennials receive a deep watering two to three times a week to help them establish healthy root systems before winter. Begin to cut back on fertilizing plants and trees to give them time to harden off before the colder weather ahead. If you have garden questions or tips for other gardeners, send them in to dpl3@accesstoledo.com.

Clay girls seek to defend Three Rivers championship By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Defending a conference championship hasn’t been something Clay’s girls’ soccer team has had to do since 2009, a year after the Eagles won the City League championship. Coach Scott Wamer’s squad, however, will attempt to do just that this season. The Eagles return four starters and seven letterwinners to a team that captured the Three Rivers Athletic Conference title last year with a 6-1 record. They finished 10-72 overall, losing to eventual Division I state champion Perrysburg in the district semifinals. Wamer, whose team opens the season Aug. 19, said this year’s team will be “explosive.” “The chemistry is not where it was last year at this time, because we had six seniors and a lot of leadership,” he said. “We have athletes who are going to fall into that role sooner or later. The conference is going to be extremely competitive again. Four teams are in line for the top spot. If we play our best soccer on those nights, we can have a very good chance of repeating.” Keeper Alyssa Heintschel, an AllTRAC and all-district selection last year, returns for her senior season after recording 66 saves in 2012. She helped the Eagles post five consecutive shutouts prior to the loss to Perrysburg last fall. Heintschel has given Ball State a verbal agreement to play for the Cardinals next year. “She does everything right,” Wamer said. “She got all the technical training she needed at an earlier age. She’s gone to all the right camps. She has done everything right to put herself in this position. She was my first-ever captain as a freshman, and she has been a three-year captain.” The Eagles’ top returning scorer is senior striker Honnah Susor, who had eight goals and six assists last season. She will play softball at Wright State University next year. “Honnah is big, strong and fast,” Wamer said. “She’s a four-year varsity player, so the more experience she gets, the better she is. I switched her position halfway through
Clay returns Alan Miller Jewelers All-Press Goalkeeper of the Year Alyssa Heintschel. (Press photo by Scott Grau) last year. She was a striker and we’ve moved her to the center-mid position and we hope she holds down the middle of the field for us. You can’t win without controlling the middle of the field.”
Clay’s other returning starters are senior fullback Haley Kubicki and junior midfielder Kara Simon, who had four goals and seven assists a year ago. Both are threeyear varsity players.
“Haley is a hard-nosed fullback,” Wamer said. “She definitely knows how to use her body to her advantage. She is not afraid of contact. Being a third-year varsity player, her skill has increased dramatically. She’s used to making good choices with the ball. Kara has good speed and good skill on the outside.” Jenna Kidd and Alyssa Heck, both junior fullbacks, and junior striker Hayley Schiavone earned varsity letters last season and will be looked upon to increase their roles this year. “Jenna is doing all the right things,” Wamer said. “She plays club (soccer) in the spring and she has good speed. She’s going to definitely give us some depth on the back line this year, which we need because we lost three starting fullbacks. “Alyssa came off the bench last year and got some valuable experience. She’s probably going to step into a role that she’s going to see increased playing time. She’s going to be on the field a lot more than she was last year. Hayley is like a point guard in basketball. Technically, she’s very good. She would rather have the assist than the goal. When the ball is at her feet, she’s looking to distribute to try and get that assist.” Wamer is anxious for the return of junior midfielder Rachael Kuecher, who tore her ACL during basketball season. The coach also hopes for production from sophomore midfielder Brittany Goralske. “Rachael has worked extremely hard to get herself back in playing shape,” Wamer said. “We’re looking forward to seeing what she can bring to us. Brittany played one year of jayvee and brings a lot of technical ball skill, and she sees the field very well.” The Eagles will have six freshmen on the varsity roster for the first time in Wamer’s tenure. They include fullback Joci Verb, midfielders Marisa Vislay and Sydney Hess, strikers Karleigh Clere and Alex Vartorella, and fullback-midfielder Sami Heintschel. “The freshmen are coming in with a lot of club experience and they are very skilled, and they bring a lot of speed,” Wamer said. “We are much faster than we have been in years past. The freshmen all come in with a lot of tactical skill and a lot of speed. Experience at the club level has given them the opportunity to play varsity at a young age.”
Graytown senior does it again — on national scene The Press Box
By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Graytown senior citizen Dorothy Gackstetter added to her trophy case more medals — this time from the National Senior Olympics. Gackstetter, who is in her 80s, qualified for the national event by winning gold in the 100 meter dash, shot put, discus, javelin, and long jump at the July 2012 state meet at Case Western Reserve University. At the national meet, held last month at Baldwin-Wallace College in Berea, Ohio, Gackstetter placed first in the 100 prelims and won silver in the finals. She also received silver in the discus and bronze in the javelin, shot put, and long jump. The national association honored all the track medalists at a parade held at the convention center in downtown Cleveland. During the parade, Gackstetter was intro-
duced to Shellie Pfohl, executive director of President Barack Obama’s Council on Fitness, Sports, and Nutrition, and the Graytown resident states proudly that she received Pfohl’s autograph. “At this time, I feel honored and privileged to have competed at the National Senior Olympics,” Gackstetter said. “Just to be there and compete was so exciting that words cannot fully express my feelings except I competed and placed in all my events. God bless,” Gackstetter also received passes to be entertained by world ice skating champion Scott Hamilton and other former

Olympians at an event at Quicken Loans Arena. She also received other gifts for her achievements, including a “sports bag” and certification of participation. The national Olympics included two participants who were over 100 years old, and a woman from Alaska who was 95years-old. Even though considered a national event, it also drew participants from around the world, including from Angola, Barbados, Bermuda, Bolivia, Canada, Germany, Latvia, Russia, Trinidad & Tobago, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Pietras on depth chart Six-foot-3, 290-pound senior offensive tackle Andrew Pietras (Northwood) is expected to add depth and battle for playing time on the Baldwin-Wallace football team. Pietras will join four returning starters on the line, led by 2012 All-Ohio Athletic Conference guard Jason Cook, who is ex-
pected to be a candidate for NCAA Division III All-American honors. “We feel that our offensive line will be our strength for us,” said Coach John Snell (71-41). “We return four starters who worked well as a unit. At the end of last season (7-3) our offense was clicking pretty well and I think a lot of that had to do with how well our line was playing. It definitely helps execution when everyone is on the same page.” B-W is ranked 20th nationally in the Lindy’s Sports Annuals (www.lindyssports.com) and 23rd in the D3football.com D-III preseason national poll.

Bowling put on hold for Alaskan experience By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Urbana University takes its men’s and women’s club bowling teams very seriously, which is one reason former Eastwood standout Mallory Fritz picked the Blue Knights’ program to compete in during her collegiate career. “The majority of teams are club teams in collegiate bowling,” Urbana women’s bowling coach Phil Baker said. “The division we play in, there are 130-some ladies’ teams. We bowl against Wichita State (18 national titles), Webber International in Florida (one national title), Pikeville, Ky., (two national titles) - basically against the top teams in the nation. “We have the chance to pick the teams and compete against the best. To be the best, we need to compete against the best in the country.” Fritz, 22, would have been the lone senior on this year’s Blue Knights squad, but she has picked up and literally moved out of the lower 48 states. Fritz, who as a junior helped Eastwood’s girls win a state bowling title in 2009, will live in Alaska through next spring as a student intern. Fritz, a student athletic trainer, applied for and accepted the internship as part of Urbana University’s partnership with the University of Alaska Fairbanks. “You have to go through an application process and interview process, and they choose one senior to come up here,” Fritz said via telephone Wednesday from Denali National Park. “You take online classes through Urbana, but you’re interning in Alaska for seven months and then you go back to Urbana and graduate. “I’m working with the athletic trainers at Alaska Fairbanks, which is funding this. They don’t send anyone to Urbana or anything like that. I’m the second person from Urbana to come up here and do this.” Fritz was a three-year starter and an academic All-American at Urbana and said she will miss her teammates this season. She said bowling in college was “a great experience.” “It was definitely a level up from high school,” she said. “You get to meet so many new people and make so many new friends. It’s a great feeling to go out and compete in so many tournaments with your team. I do miss bowling and I’m going to miss bowling with the girls, but I had to do what’s best for myself for the future, which is athletic training. Collegiate bowling is competitive, but it’s also fun at the same time.” Baker said the Blue Knights’ first tournament is scheduled for Sept. 21-22. Urbana’s season ends next spring at the national tournament in Reno, Nev. “We bowl one to two tournaments a month through the whole season,” Baker said. “We just completed our fourth year

We all practice together and coach together.” Baker said Fritz was putting her college major to good use by learning on the job with some of Urbana University’s sports programs and other area high school teams. “We hated to lose her, but that’s an opportunity she couldn’t pass up,” Baker said. “I know she hated to have to miss her senior year, but things happen. She has an advanced game. She probably didn’t have as much experience as some of the top girls in the country prior to coming to college. Beyond that, her parents (Beth and Mike) were always fully behind her. She is a very good student and a very good learner of the game as well.” Fritz and her father recently spent a couple weeks touring the 49th state, including a trip to Denali National Park, a six-million acre park located in Alaska’s interior. “We got in (to Alaska) last Tuesday (Aug. 6) and went to Chena Hot Springs, which is like a resort with natural hot springs,” Fritz said. “We spent two days fishing. We saw salmon, but we were fish-
ing for grayling. We caught quite a few on the Chena River. Denali National Park is just one of those must-see places. We saw a moose and hiked a two-mile trail.” Fritz and her dad also got a good look at Mount McKinley, the highest mountain in North America. “It was a clear day and we were able to see it,” she said. “It was so cool to see it in the distance and say, ‘hey, I’ve seen Mount McKinley.’ That’s not something everybody can say. Alaska is so cool, but you don’t fully appreciate it until you get to see it. Now that I’m up here, I absolutely love it. This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience.” Fritz said it will be hard to give up her bowling career, but she will always find time to bowl in her spare time. “Leaving my friends was hard,” she said, “but I’ll see them in March when I go back.” Her goal is to graduate in May, find an internship next summer and then go to graduate school for two years. “I want to be an athletic trainer for a baseball team,” said Fritz, whose favorite teams are the Mud Hens and Detroit Tigers. “That’s one of those (jobs) where you have to start low and work your way up.”

Woodville’s Dan Roepke Jr. gets first win at Fremont By Brian Liskai Special to The Press Liskai2x@roadrunner.com In the AAA Ohio Auto Club Dirt Trucks, Woodville’s Dan Roepke Jr. held off John Ivy the last half of the race to score his first win of the season Saturday at Fremont Speedway. It was the seventh win of his career at the track. “I didn’t know who was behind me but I wanted to see this thing go flag to flag with being able to start up front. I heard Johnny back there but I wasn’t going to give him any room…that’s for sure,” said Roepke beside his Perkins Tree Service/Johnny’s Electric backed #88. “I have to thank Dennis Level. We blew a motor last week and he got one back together. I want to thank my dad and Adam for helping get this thing back together.” Dan Roepke and Jeff Ward brought the field to the green for the 20 lap feature for the dirt trucks with Roepke gaining the advantage. As Roepke pulled away from Ward a torrid battle ensued for third between Matt Foos, John Ivy, Kent Brewer, Shawn Valenti and Art Ball. Ivy would take third on lap three with Valenti moving into fourth with five laps scored. Just as Roepke had built a huge lead Willie Keegan would lose a wheel on lap seven to bring out the caution. A lap and another caution for a tangle involving Brewer and Cory McCaughey. On the ensuing restart Ward would spin. The restart running order with 12 laps remaining was Roepke, Ivy, Valenti, Foos, Ball and Dustin Keegan. Ball would spin on lap 11 and when the green flew Ivy was glued to Roepke’s rear bumper.

BIG Savings throughout the store! Dan Roepke Jr races to his first win of the season and his seventh year of his career at Fremont Speedway. (Photo by Andrew Myers) Following the final caution on lap 13, the last seven laps became the Roepke, Ivy and Valenti show as that trio pulled away from Dustin Keegan, Brian Melnek and Andy Keegan. Roepke would not budge from the bottom groove and went on to the win over Valenti, Ivy, Dustin Keegan and Andy Keegan. Persistent rain showers last Friday evening forced the cancellation of racing
on Edward Jones of Clyde/Mike Neill Financial Advisor Night at Attica Raceway Park. Ohio’s Finest Racing speedplant was off Aug. 9 for the annual Attica Fair but will resume racing on Aug. 17.

After illness, Kuns goes from playing to coaching Drew Kuns had big plans for his redshirt junior year on the Bowling Green State University baseball team this spring. Kuns, a 2009 Clay graduate and the City League Player of the Year and a first-team All-Ohio selection as a senior, wanted to have a big year for coach Danny Schmitz’s Falcons. In the fall of 2012, however, Kuns, 22, contracted food poisoning after, he says, eating a chicken sandwich from a local fastfood chain. “I got rid of that in about three days,” Kuns said. “I was fine for a day and I tried to continue my regular routine, and I couldn’t do it. I got dizzy and passed out. (BG) wanted me to try to play and I tried to play through it at the start of last spring (2012). I just couldn’t push my body anymore. I told them I just can’t do it, and they (coaching staff) agreed. They wanted to see if I could get back to playing shape last summer, going into this year.” Kuns said he was originally diagnosed with vasovagal syncope, the symptoms of which include loss of consciousness, lightheadedness, nausea, ringing in the ears, and an uncomfortable feeling in the heart. “It makes your heart race when you do stuff, and it won’t slow down,” Kuns said of his condition. “My heart was racing too much. When I stopped doing something, it slowed down too much. That’s how they figured it was POTS and not that (vasovagal syncope).” Symptoms of POTS, or Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, include fatigue, dizziness, abdominal discomfort, and headaches. Ironically, Schmitz’s son, BG assistant coach Spencer Schmitz, also has POTS. “I’ve never heard of POTS until I got

I wasn’t going to try to play through it and make my body worse. It got to the point that I couldn’t play through my condition.

Drew Kuns
it,” Kuns said. “They thought it was another syndrome (vasovagal syncope) for the first six months. They gave me medication for it and it (dizzyness) wasn’t getting better at all. I went to a specialist and they said, ‘We’re going to treat you for POTS.’ It’s been gradually getting better and better. I think we’re on the right track.” Kuns said he realized just two weeks prior to BG’s fall workouts that he was in no condition to play. “I couldn’t overcome that syndrome that fast,” he said, “and I wasn’t going to try to play through it and make my body worse. It got to the point that I couldn’t play through my condition.” Kuns had already taken a redshirt year in 2011 when, after appearing in eight games, he sat out the rest of the season with a torn muscle and three pulled tendons in his ankle. He will be a senior academically
at BGSU in 2013-14 and will graduate with a degree in criminal justice. Instead of trying to get another medical redshirt year for the 2013 spring baseball season, he chose to become an assistant coach with the Falcons instead. “With my medical condition, I decided to go out with my senior class,” Kuns said. “It would have taken too long to get back into playing shape and have my body where it needs to be with my syndrome. They offered me to be a player-coach this year and I accepted it.” Kuns, who made first-team All-CL in football, basketball and baseball his senior year at Clay, said it was “definitely hard” to give up his college baseball career. “I’ve played highly competitive baseball now for 14 years of my life,” he said. “Once I got past not playing, I realized that many other doors opened up for me and
that’s the new path I have to take.” Kuns, a first baseman and left fielder, helped coach the Falcons’ infielders and was involved as a hitting coach and bullpen coach. “I loved it,” Kuns said. “To go to the games the first part of the season was tough, knowing I wasn’t going to play. Once I got over that, I loved it. I was still a part of the game and still a part of the team. The love of the game will never go away.” BG struggled during the regular season, going 24-29, but somehow the Falcons ended up winning the Mid-American Conference tournament to get an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. It was the program’s first MAC title and NCAA tournament appearance since 1999. “We got hot at the right time,” Kuns said. “We carried big momentum in. We beat Buffalo on a walk-off double in the last game of the regular season to get us in (the MAC tournament). That also took away their MAC championship. It felt great.” The Falcons traveled to Louisville to play the host Cardinals (46-12) in the first round of the NCAA tourney. BG lost, 8-3, and then lost to Oklahoma State, 7-3, and was eliminated from the tournament. “That was one of the best experiences of my life,” Kuns said. “In Division I baseball, it’s an honor to be the MAC champs in the tournament and go to regionals to play against some of the best kids in the nation. With the team we had, we had a chance to beat those guys. But, baseball’s a weird game and that’s how it all turned out.” Kuns said he hopes to be on BGSU’s coaching staff again next season. “They have not figured out what they’re going to do with me yet,” he said. “I’ve always wanted to be a baseball coach, but I never knew if I would have that opportunity. Now that my medical reasons came up and I was able to be a coach, it’s just a great fit and I would love to pursue this.”
Walleye signs Purple Eagles

Defensemen Dan Weiss and C.J. Chartrain have agreed to terms with the Toledo Walleye for the 2013-14 season. Weiss, a native of Ballwin, Missouri, has spent last four seasons suiting up for the Niagara Purple Eagles. While at Niagara, the 6-foot-2, 185 pound defenseman appeared in 125 games, netting seven goals and 25 assists to go along with 62 penalty minutes. The 23-year-old was a co-captain this past season and a recipient of the team’s CLAW award, given to a player who blocks shots and is very physical. “These are two young smart hockey players,” Coach Nick Vitucci said. “Both players are very strong in their own end and they do all the little things well.” Chartain hails from Pointe-Claire, Quebec. In 139 games with the Purple Eagles, he collected 12 goals, 39 assists and 121 penalty minutes. The 23-year-old was named this past season to the Atlantic Hockey Association’s All-Academic team along with Weiss. The 2013-14 season home opener is October 26 against the Wheeling Nailers. Walleye single game tickets and game plans are on sale now. Call 419-725-WALL.

My name is FLO but my other name is "Sweet Liberty" as I was in the pound for a very long time and was rescued the day before 4th of July, hence Sweet Liberty. Just look at me having a case of "zips" that first day. I have turned out to have such a sweet personality, energetic and very smart too. I'm only about 35 pounds and very affectionate. My Rescue Mom says I need a family thast home a lot and kids, who I adore. I get along with my rescue buddies too. I'm all caught up with my shots, spayed and micro chipped. Potty trained too. What more can you ask for. PLUS, I don't chew, bark excessively or some of those other thing people don't like. Check me and Rollo out on FB (youluckydogrescue) We are a great pair.
