Republic Services is the same company that was handling the services prior to the shut down of the three disposal stations in the county. The service had to be discontinued after county officials reported that previously discussed numbers with Republic had later changed and were much higher when the two sides were ready to sign an agreement back in July. Kutscher says unfortunately, it took this

"So, we did go through the process request for proposal to solicit bids from other vendors. We had pre-bid meetings with six different vendors but only had two vendors submit proposals to the county for operating collection stations. Those two vendors were Republic Services, the previous vendor and Apache (Disposal) but after reviewing those services, the prices and everything -- it was considered by commissioners court that Republic Services was the best vendor to provide the service to operate the collection stations and to also haul off the material," said Kutscher. This contract, however, only resurrects two of the three previous collections sites for the county. Kutscher says it was a sacrifice to only open two but at this point, he says the county is just happy to again be serving its residents. See DISPOSAL, page 2

County disposal stations to open soon (Seguin) -- Commissioners are finally putting a lid on all the trash talk that's been happening in Guadalupe County. Commissioners say they are one step closer to officially reopening the county's collection stations which have been closed since the summer. An amended contract which was approved Tuesday morning by commissioners now awaits the signatures of both County Judge Kyle Kutscher and Republic Services.

By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera (Seguin) -- Guadalupe County is applauding not only its partnership but the overall efforts of the state's only city, county owned hospital in the state of Texas. Guadalupe Regional Medical Center officials this week visited with members of the commissioners court announcing new business ventures and it's own financial health. Robert Haynes, chief executive officer for GRMC, says the oper-

ation continues to grow strong. He says this allows the hospital to not only remain competitive but allows it to move forward with its vision. "Right now, we are financially stable but we are in healthcare and healthcare is a changing world. Next year's economics can be different from this year. We've been fortunate over the past five, six, seven years to do really well -- well enough to take our enterprise from what it was a small red brick hospital to a regional facility. We have plans now -- we are expanding in the Clear Springs area with an Urgent Care and

adding a family practice in that direction. We also are planning to expand our medical office buildings to about 32,000 square foot of medical office building that we are going to put it on an undisclosed location at this time. But all in all, we are about 800 employees, a $110 million business with $52 million of that going back to salaries (of) people that live in this community. Our number one purpose though is provide healthcare and we do that with a culture of caring and we do that in a manner that that is our primary focus," said Haynes. See GRMC, page 3

Guadalupe County negotiates deal to reopen trash collections sites DISPOSAL, continued from page 1 "So, the good news is we are moving forward with reopening the collection stations but yes, there will be changes to what that looked like previously. Previously, we had three collections stations open which were Kingsbury, Marion and the Seguin site and under the new agreement that will be entered into with Republic Services and Guadalupe County would only have the Marion station open and the Kingsbury collection station open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 in the afternoon," said Kutscher.

MIRACULOUS PRAYER Dear Heart of Jesus, in the past I have asked for favors. This time I ask you this very special one (mention favor). Take it dear Jesus and place it within your own broken heart where your father sees it, then in your merciful eyes it will become your favor, not mine. Amen. Say this prayer for 3 days, promise publication and favor will be granted. Never known to fail I.S.G.

While he knows it's been an inconvenience for many, Kutscher reassures residents that the county had to do what was best.

"It's been an extremely lengthy process and involved and detailed. We want to apologize to any of the residents who were inconvenienced by this but previously, the request for proposal came back in a bid submitted from Republic and the vendor and it was just too expensive. We are trying to be good stewards of taxpayer money. I know it's kind of fustrustrating to

go through this entire process only to end up where we started but the benefit is now -- it's at a reasonable rate with a service that's not only needed but can now be verified in the contract on the number of transactions that occur at each one of those collection stations and also by the haul off loads. We are also going to restrict this to be Guadalupe County residents only. It doesn't matter if you are within the city or not but we don't want people coming from outside of our county causing an increase for our taxpayers at these collection stations," said Kutscher. The approved contract also eliminates all glass from its collection services. Republic officials say the cost to collect glass is just too much to take on. There will also be an increase in the cost for residential trash. The previous cost of $1.25 will now go up to $2. Kutscher says the increase was inevitable even before its first failed attempt to enter a deal with Republic. Following the judge's signature on the contract, Republic Services says it hopes to reopen the disposal stations by Nov. 1 if not sooner.

GRMC shares future plans, financial stability with Guadalupe County officials of it," said Haynes. Haynes says what might be even more incredible are the efforts brought forth by the city and county -- efforts that go hand in hand in helping to make GRMC the hospital that it is today.

GRMC, continued from page 1 Haynes says this latest venture to branch out north of Seguin will allow it to reach even more people. He says it's about delivering the best possible healthcare to all those who need it. "We have what we call itinerant positions. They go to different areas as far south as Cuero but it's our first step with the hospital actually putting a physical building somewhere other than it's primary 78155 (area). It will be an urgent care open seven days a week and to that extent next to it, will be a family practice and that's our first venture to the north, Clear Springs," said Haynes. Over the last several months, the hospital has received plenty of accolades for its operation. Haynes the foundation lies with all those who dedicate their lives to patients 24/7. "We recently were recognized as one of the Top 100 Places to work by Modern Healthcare, a national organi-

zation. We actually were ranked as the number 52 in the nation so we are very proud of that but that is an effort of working on the culture to create an environment (where) people who want to make a difference can make a difference," said Haynes. Haynes says the uniqueness behind GRMC's long history of being a city, county owned hospital is well worth the determination to hang onto something great. "This hospital was created by special legislation at the state but what it did is it created a seven member hospital board -- three by the city, three by the county and one at large and that hospital board became the buffer between city politics and county politics and as you know, politics are politics. That buffer had one mission -- provide healthcare. Those seven board members that are appointed, they hired the administrator and my predecessor Don Richey at a great job -- doing what he did for 26 years and to that fact that this hospital is 54 years in existence and has had a total of three administrators so there's been a lot of stability to get there and we are proud

"The real beauty of it is you have the city of Seguin. You've got Guadalupe County, the commissioners court working together. I've got to give a plug for economic development because Josh and his team do a great job. As those jobs come into town and rooftops go up, that gives us a better opportunity to succeed and our job is to be prepared and to be there to provide healthcare. We have the latest robotics surgery. We have state-of-the art equipment because we put all of our money back into the facility," said Haynes.= Guadalupe County Judge Kyle Kutscher says the input and control that are drawn from having your very own hospital makes the operation that much more worthwhile. "When you are the last city/county owned hospital in the entire state, that entity is the only one left typically it gets harder and harder to operate in that manner. But the partnerships and relationships that we have between those three entities continues to improve and get stronger and that's a benefit to our residents and our community because we have real input and control and when the hospital, the city and the county have input and control, it means the citizens and the people who are our bosses have the control of what happens in our own community and that's so much better than having somebody come in from another state from across the country deciding on what happens with our healthcare or our community and our lifestyle and our residents," said Kutscher.= GRMC officials were on hand to share its budget and its current projects during Tuesday's meeting of the Guadalupe County Commissioners Court.

TLU's Kelsi Menn named SCAC Volleyball Defensive Player of the Week (Seguin) - Kelsi Menn, Texas Lutheran's senior middle blocker from San Antonio, Texas, has been named Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Volleyball Defensive Player of the Week for matches played from Monday, Oct. 7 through Sunday, Oct. 13. Menn led TLU to a 3-0 week while collecting 11 total blocks. In the four-set victory over Southwestern, which snapped a 24game losing skid to the Pirates, Menn registered seven block assists and contributed 11.5 total points. Menn also was productive on the offensive end with eight kills, hitting .316 in the victory. In the three-set victories over

Belhaven and LeTourneau, Menn had a combined four blocks for the Bulldogs. Menn's award is the third SCAC defensive honor for TLU this year. Lexi Morris, the Bulldogs' freshman libero, took the award in Week 1 and Week 5. TLU has won four straight and holds a 14-11 overall record with a 5-5 mark in the SCAC. TLU is a tie for fifth in the SCAC standings. The Bulldogs play four conference matches this weekend in the SCAC Crossover at Trinity University. The Bulldogs play Austin College and St. Thomas (Texas) on Friday and Johnson & Wales - Denver and Trinity on Saturday.

Brought to you exclusively by: First Commercial Bank Sports TLU Cross Country teams post TLU men drop first SCAC soccer match of 2019 season-best times at Disney Cross Country Classic (Orlando) - Texas Lutheran Women's and Men's Cross Country teams posted season-best results Saturday at the Disney World Cross Country Classic. TLU senior Kylee Garcia posted a top-20 finish with a 5K time of 19 minutes, 40.6 seconds. Mackenzie Payne and Jackie Garcia came home in 60th and 64th, respectively, with times of 21:35.70 and 21:49.90. Gabrielle Gonzales and Julia Maciel collected finishes of 74th and 86th, respectively, with times of 22:19.70 and 22:59.20. The Bulldogs placed 11th in the team standings out of the 16 teams competing. The field largely was made up of NCAA Division I and Division II schools. "Whenever you race in Florida for cross country, you have to expect some steamy temperatures, and that's what we were dealt," said Darlene Holland, TLU's head coach for women's and men's cross country. "It was a little more humid than we see in Seguin, but at least the races were run in the morning, so that definitely helped. It was a great weekend for us as a team." "The women ran well. They raced after the men, so the temperatures were a tad bit warmer, but the ladies

embraced it and ran very well. A few personal records on the women's side, and a lot of enthusiasm moving forward as a team. Kylee Garcia had a good race, finishing 19th in the largely Division 1 and Division 2-laden race, and Jackie Garcia ran a huge PR." The TLU Men competed with four runners and did not figure into the team standings since five runners are required to score as a team. Juan Moreno led the Bulldogs with a 70th-place finish and a time of 30:27.20 over the 8K course. Hector Hornedo crossed the line in 32:09.30 and placed 90th. Christopher Torres and Koby Green placed 99th and 100th, respectively, with times of 32:59.80 and 33:04.01. "The men have been coming off of injuries, so it was good to see them improve on their times so quickly," said Holland. "Not to mention that when you walk around a theme park the day before, you can't expect PRs. But we saw PRs and were happy with the race.

(Colorado Springs, Colo.) - The Texas Lutheran men's soccer team suffered their first Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference loss with a 5-1 setback Sunday against Colorado College. The defeat came after a 4-3 win over Johnson & Wales-Denver in double overtime on Friday. TLU fell to 9-4 overall and to 3-1 in the SCAC. CC improved to 8-5 overall and to 3-1 in the SCAC.

Roman started the match scoring in the 14th minute with an assist from Cameron Townes. The two goals Friday for Roman, a freshman, were the second and third of his collegiate career at TLU.

The Tigers rallied to score three firsthalf goals. Kiran Singh (20th minute), Griffin Meyer (23rd minute), and Samson Heyer (31st minute) gave CC a 3-1 lead at the half.

Luis Green scored his team-leading ninth goal of the season with a shot in the 20th minute, also with an assist from Cameron Townes.

"The energy level is up and we are looking forward to the fast racing conditions this week as we head to California." The Bulldog squads race next Saturday at the University of California at Riverside Highlander Invite in Riverside, Calif.

House Dems Prescription Drug Plan Would Save $345 Billion

California Power Shutdowns Raising Air Pollution Concerns

(Washington, DC) -- The Congressional Budget Office says House Democrats' plan to lower prescription drug prices would save hundreds-of-billions of dollars. An analysis by the nonpartisan office says the plan would save a total of 345-billion dollars over a decade starting in 2023. The CBO says the Lower Drug Costs Now Act would reduce federal Medicare spending by that amount. The plan would require drug manufacturers to negotiate prices with the health secretary. Insulin would be among the drugs for which prices would be negotiated in the first year, however, the bill needs to pass the House, Senate and receive a signature from President Trump.

(Undated) -- Officials are concerned that power shutdowns intended to prevent more California wildfires may further harm California's already poor air quality. Utilities temporarily suspended service to more than two-million people over the last week. That led many businesses, hospitals and others to fire up standby generators, including those fueled with diesel and gasoline that spew toxic emissions. Officials say it's too early to know how significant the effects could be.

Suicide Attempts By Black Teens On Rise (New York, NY) -- A new report out of NYU is warning that suicide attempts in the U.S. are on the rise among black teenagers. Researchers looked at data from 1991 through 2017 and found there was a 73percent rise in suicide attempts for black teens, especially among females. Meantime, it also showed the rate went down seven-percent with white teenagers. It also found that one-in-five teens of any race has thought about suicide.

WORLD-CLASS CARE Close to home.

Sausage Maker Recalling Products (Camarillo, CA) -- A family-owned California business that specializes in German sausages is recalling thousands of pounds of its products due to a labeling error. The recall covers nearly nearly 72-hundred pounds of raw and ready-to-eat pork and turkey sausage products made by YOUBITE. Inspectors say the products could contain either natural sheep or natural pork casings that were not declared on the label. The recall covers products made between October 2018 to October of this year.

OBITS, continued from page 13

Jack D. Morgan Chief Warrant Officer 3 Jack D. Morgan, US Army Retired, age 83, passed away in his home in Seguin, TX on October12, 2019. CWO3 Morgan was born on September 14, 1936 in Waynoka, OK to Charlie and Cora Belle Morgan.

He is survived by his loving wife Nichol Morgan, children Jim and Nancy Morgan, Julie Foster, Erv and Shelly Nave, Janice Morgan, and Eric and Docia Nave, grandchildren Colleen and Al Bevacqua, Anthony and Lydia Martinez, Melissa and Thor Richins, Amanda and Mark Chadwick, Eric and Sarah Nave, Elizabeth and Shane Patrykus, Sarah and Kyle Dwyer, Justin and Kiesha Morgan, Amber Hale, Katie Richards, Kristen Nave, and Justin Nave, great grandchildren, Hayli, Sarah, Elizabeth, Gabe, Nate, Katie, Andrew, Levi, Alyssa, Landon, Josh, Tucker, Tavin, Xavier, Alex, Cadence, and Natalin, brother Gale Morgan, sister-in-law Ann Morgan, and numerous neices, nephews, and friends. He is preceded in death by his first wife Jackie Morgan and brothers, Charlie Morgan and Billy Morgan. CWO3 Morgan joined the Air Force as a young man

and served as a mechanic. This is where he met the first love of his life, Jackie. While raising their 3 kids, he left the Air Force and joined the Army to become a pilot. He was a veteran of both Korea and the Vietnam War. When he retired, they settled back in Texas where he began working in the private aircraft industry as an aircraft accident investigator. He lost his first love, Jackie, in 1988. He found the second love of his life in long time family friend, Nichol, and expanded his family to include 2 more sons. As the family grew and added many more grandchildren and great grandchildren, he retired and continued to travel the world as a consultant. He spent the last several years travelling with Nichol to visit family and friends, praising God, loving babies,

and enjoying life. A family man to the core, everyone saw him as " larger than life"! He bled red, white, and blue, and instilled love of family and country in all who knew and loved him. A memorial service will take place at Dewville United Methodist Church on Monday, October 21st at 10:00 am, with a reception immediately following in the fellowship hall.
