In The News: Fourth of July celebrated in Marshall Fourth of July events get under way when the annual “Cruise at the Fountain” gets into gear July 3 at the Calhoun County Fairgrounds. The festivities continue at Fountain Circle on July 4 beginning with the 2015 Oaklawn Pet, Bike, & Wagon Parade.

See story on page 18 Family heirloom: Pete Bailey’s 1954 Lincoln will be part of Cruise at the Fountain A third-generation car will make its way around the Brooks Memorial Fountain on July 4 as part of this year’s Cruise at the Fountain event. The 1954 Lincoln Capri owned by Pete Bailey is well known around Marshall. “The car has always been a figure for Marshall,” said Bailey. “It was always parked in front of Hemmingsen; that’s where dad always parked. It’s probably one of the oldest cars in Marshall. It’s been around here forever.”

Bruce McKee, president and general manager of FireKeepers Casino Hotel, is implementing a strategic succession plan as he prepares for retirement, reported Homer A. Mandoka, Tribal Council chairman of the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi on June 30. McKee is credited with establishing the winning culture of outstanding guest service, professional casino operation and development of Michigan’s finest gaming resort during his more than seven years of service. Brian D. Decorah, the current senior vice president and assistant general manager, was named CEO of FireKeepers effective July 1.

The program is restoring a passion for learning the history of the automobile while teaching skills that will serve students well as adults.“This program is a hands-on approach to learning while doing,” said Michael Spezia, director of the Gilmore Car Museum. “This incredible program pretty much runs itself. The mentors love it and the students love it.”

See story on page 38 Sewn into history: The story of Robert Heft, designer of the American flag In 1959, Robert Heft created the American flag reflecting the 50 states that is recognized today. Although at the time there were only 48 states, Heft, who was born in Saginaw, knew Alaska was well on its way to joining the union and imagined Hawaii would follow.

Eventually, State Farm Insurance Company assisted Heft with sharing information about his flag’s design and his patriotism.

lustery and wet weather aside, most of the planning and hard work has been completed by those featured on the 2015 Welcome to My Garden tour hosted by the Marshall Area Garden Club. The 25th tour showcases six of the community’s most beautiful gardens, each unique and interesting in its own way. Homeowners Mary and Chuck Crosby prepare the plants on their deck in preparation for the July 11 and 12 event.

Columns Law that helps people...What a will does and doesn’t do

Editor’s Corner

by John Hendler Today is our nation’s 239th birthday.

Happy Fourth of July, everybody.

I love being in Marshall on the Fourth for the festivities at Brooks Fountain and this year, an added bonus, the Cruise at the Fountain downtown takes place later in the day at 6 p.m.

The pet and bike parade, followed by the chicken BBQ and the community band is a throwback to simpler times of years’ past and gives us all a chance to slow down and just enjoy the moment.

How can you not be in a good mood after seeing kids on their decorated bikes or with their decorated pets?

Yes, it can seem corny at times, but we could all use a little more corny in our lives from time to time.

This slice of Americana seems to be a dying breed around the country, and it’s no surprise that when I send my friends photos or video clips of the day’s festivities, they all say how they wish they could be here or wish that their town had something similar.

In the Declaration of Independence, our Founding Fathers wanted to establish a government that derived their just powers from the consent of the governed and, if a government became destructive, it was the right of the people to alter or abolish it.

Today, it seems that those voted in to serve the people in Congress think they know better than the citizens that put them there and, rather than act in their constituents' best interests, instead seem to act in their own best interests, the constituent being just too naive to understand.

You wouldn't understand. Just go back and distract yourselves with your gadgets and reality TV shows. We'll take care of everything.

With each passing year, the federal government seemingly gets more involved in more and more aspects of our lives.

As we've seen in recent years in Europe, and especially last week in Greece, government's failure to follow through on keeping its unrealistic promises is beginning to suffocate Greeks and the European continent and its citizens with mountains upon mountains of debt.

And the way our nation’s debt continues to rise, that European model will arrive here at some point unless government gets serious about being fiscally responsible.

But, we get the same political doublespeak year after year as we continue to dig ourselves into a bigger hole.

But the government continues to think that throwing money (we don’t have) at problems is the cure for this nation’s ills.

And the more intrusive government becomes in our lives, the more it will resemble King George's regime our Founding Fathers fought so hard to get away from.

As written in the Declaration of Independence: A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be ruler of a free people.

Thankfully, the United States is still the greatest nation on Earth, but we as a nation need to be wary of government having more of a say in our lives.

Until next week, may the good news be yours.

By GEORGE M. STRANDER Ingram County Court Administrator and Probate Register First in a series.

Many people think making a will is a way to avoid one’s estate going through probate. Also, many people think that a decedent’s will is all the documentation and authority needed to administer someone’s decedent estate. These are both misconceptions. In this article, we will begin to take a quick look at wills, discussing what they do and what they do not do.

What a will does: Although a will can cover many things, it has two central uses: it allows the maker of the will (called a “testator”) to (1) designate to whom he or she wants some or all of his or her assets to go after his or her death and (2) nominate one or more individuals and alternates to function as the person overseeing the estate administration (called a “per-

sonal representative” – basically the same as an executor). A testator may also use a will to nominate a guardian for his or her minor child (in case the testator passes away before the child becomes an adult) and may, on occasion, be used to discuss the testator’s funeral and burial wishes.

State law defines a “will” to include, but not be limited to, a codicil and a testamentary instrument that appoints a personal representative, revokes or revises another will, nominates a guardian or expressly excludes or limits the right of an individual or class to succeed to the decedent’s property that is passing by intestate succession. [700.1108] This definition points up the fact that wills can be revoked by other wills or can be amended by other documents (called “codicils”). It also makes clear that the decedent’s assets (after claims) will pass by intestate succession (i.e., to “heirs” in absence of a will) unless a will exists.

Without a will: Hence, if a decedent did not execute a will that person’s estate is said to be “intestate” and, according to state statute, estate assets are to be distributed (after payment of any approved

claimants) to that person’s heirs. In general, any surviving spouse is an heir, any child of the decedent is an heir, and any grandchild of a predeceased child is an heir. For decedents without a surviving spouse and any descendants, the determination of heirs can get to be complicated, since one is led up to the parents (who may be deceased) and then down through siblings and perhaps their children. If a decedent has no relations, even through both grandparental lines, the heir of the estate is the state of Michigan. One reason, then, to write a will is to designate that estate assets get distributed in a manner different from intestate succession, whether to a subset of one’s heirs or to other persons or entities (like a trust).

Without a will a person also has no ability to nominate someone as personal representative. State law does designate who has priority to be named personal representative in the absence of a will (i.e., surviving spouse, then other heirs), but if a person wants someone else to fulfill this role (e.g., a non-heir relative, or an attorney) a will is the means to make this nomination.

Letters Is there a better practical initiative?

To the Editor: What is of greater urgent concern than the survival of God-given life on Earth? Pope Francis’ response based on scripture, reason and the best scientific research charts a course of scriptures prudent action to conserve our fragile imperiled ecological system at all levels. Failure to do so by lax governmental oversight and “profit over people” corporate negligence resulted in the largest oil pipeline disaster in U.S. history at Marshall’s Talmadge Creek. Similar events loom at Mackinac Straits.

Fracking poses risks to watersheds and health that are mini-

mized or ignored by politicians.

The Pontiff’s Encyclical speaks clearly to other key issues of survival, justice and dignity as bigotry, persecution and violence escalate in the United States and in Iraq/Syria where semitic Christians face genocide.

The massacre at Emmanuel AME Church rightly prompted United States communities to intensify local efforts to overcome race-based hostility among all sectors. What can happen in Marshall and beyond? “Business as usual” doesn’t suffice. Marshall has a unique early history to re-af-

firm: The Crosswhite fugitive slave rescue (1847), the organization of the Marshall African Methodist (1846-7), the second one in Michigan and the second African Baptist Church of Marshall (1857-60) are notable regional events worthy of continued remembrance.

One proposal’s to launch a non-denominational, multi-cultural, county-wide public “jubilee sing” fest each year.

“Sings” are opportunities to share a rich tradition of participatory “vocal healing art.”

American shape-note harmony common to black, white, native people (1800-1880) is being popularized in small towns

south and north. Marshall, Albion, Battle Creek have a talent bank to teach and kick-start a Crosswhite jubilee chorale “shape-note sing” that will draw hundreds from across Michigan to maybe sing in the Vatican someday. “Shall we gather at the river” to celebrate human diversity as water-keepers, fire-keepers and faith-keepers in unity? Let’s explore the concept for harvest-time 2015.

It’s worth trying. Is there a better practical initiative? Visit www.shapenote.org.

Press releases Consumers Energy, DTE invest in Pure Michigan LANSING – Businesses across the state could get a boost from a combined $10 billion commitment from DTE Energy and Consumers Energy as part of the state’s Pure Michigan Business Connect program, Gov. Rick Snyder said.

The program, launched in 2011, helps Michigan businesses grow and create jobs by connecting suppliers with in-state business resources. DTE and Consumers each have pledged $5 billion in investment with other Michigan-based companies over the next five years.

The announcement doubles the program commitment to date and was made at the Small Business Association of Michigan’s Annual Meeting and Networking Luncheon.

Both companies committed to the program four years ago and have exceeded their initial targets of $1 billion each in new contracts with Michigan businesses.

“Consumers Energy and DTE Energy helped build the foundation for Pure Michigan Business Connect by opening the door to millions of dollars per year in opportunities for other Michigan businesses,” Snyder said.

“These latest commitments, along with those of our other partners, will mean significant growth opportunities for Michigan companies.

I encourage all of Michigan’s business community, companies that have supply needs and those that are looking for new opportunities, to join the program.”

Pure Michigan Business Connect is a public-private alliance of the MEDC, state agencies and Michigan companies that helps find ways to raise capital, get access to professional business services at little or no cost, connect through a new business-to-business network, and identify potential suppliers and resources.

The program enables Michigan businesses to have access to new sales and supply chain

leads that they would not traditionally be able to secure. To help small businesses navigate the complexities of larger company purchasing processes, the Small Business Association of Michigan announced a plan to host a purchasers’ summit in partnership with Pure Michigan Business Connect, featuring lead purchasing partners DTE Energy and Consumers Energy on Sept. 22, 2015 in Livonia.

“We thank these companies for their commitment to keeping and enhancing their business relationships with firms located in Michigan,” SBAM President and CEO Rob Fowler said. “Our summit in partnership with Pure Michigan Business Connect will help drive economic growth across the state by providing opportunities for our energetic entrepreneurs to work with some of the state’s biggest companies. The state of Michigan is playing a very appropriate role as a connector that helps keep this business activity within the state. This is real economic gardening that is vital to the success of our economy, where 98 percent of the state’s firms are small businesses that collectively employ more than half of Michigan’s private sector workforce.”

DTE Energy has generated more than $1.3 billion in new supplier contracts since partnering with Pure Michigan Business Connect. DTE Energy’s $5 billion investment represents more than $500 million annually in new supplier contracts, an increase of more than 200 percent since the program’s inception.

“DTE Energy is proud to be a leader in this positive collaboration with the governor and the Michigan Economic Development Corp.,” said Gerry Anderson, chairman and CEO of DTE Energy. “We have partnered with highquality suppliers that provide us with the costeffective products and services we need, keeping thousands of jobs in Michigan, while im-

proving service reliability for our customers.”

Through the Pure Michigan Business Connect initiative, Consumers Energy has increased purchasing with Michigan suppliers by nearly $1.2 billion since 2011.

“Consumers Energy is proud to increase our commitment to Pure Michigan Business Connect. Going forward, we will spend $1 billion per year in Michigan over the next five years, for a total of $5 billion. The MEDC has been a strong and important partner to Consumers Energy, helping us to connect with and invest in more than 400 Michigan-based suppliers, and create more than 5,000 jobs,” said John G. Russell, president and chief executive officer of Consumers Energy. “Consumers Energy’s increased spending with Michigan companies in our home state is helping to retain talent, encourage young people to stay in Michigan, and drive innovation, while keeping electric and natural gas service safe, reliable and affordable.”

The program’s network includes more than 40,000 Michigan businesses including Ford Motor Company, Blue Cross Blue Shield, General Dynamics, Michigan State University, Chrysler, University of Michigan, General Motors, KUKA Systems, Wayne State University, and Boeing.

“The Pure Michigan Business Connect partnership with DTE Energy and Consumers Energy has generated hundreds of contracts for Michigan suppliers which create or support more than 10,000 jobs, many of them with Michigan small businesses,” said MEDC CEO Steve Arwood. “The collaboration will have a continued and lasting impact with both DTE and Consumers each now spending more than $1 billion annually with Michigan businesses.”

“I was training for a half marathon with my daughter when my knee pain became unbearable. I went to see an orthopedic specialist at Bronson Battle Creek. X-rays revealed my knee cartilage was completely gone. I’m young for a knee replacement, but there was no other option. I’m a mother of six. Life is hectic. I’m always looking after everyone. Now I was the one being looked after. The nurses are so dedicated. I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed such peace and quiet. Although Joint Camp was tough, I had the support I needed to flourish.

My doctor told me that when he saw the damage to my knee during surgery he couldn’t believe how long I put up with it. I just hope others experiencing this severe level of pain realize they can get help, too.”
