SYCAMORE – U.S. Cellular is petitioning DeKalb County government to construct a new cellular tower, officials said.
The cellphone company reached out to DeKalb County to inquire about renting 10,000 square feet of county-owned land on Barber Greene Road in DeKalb for the tower, County Administrator Brian Gregory said last week.
Gregory spoke about the request at the Jan. 3 Facilities and Technology committee meeting of the DeKalb County Board.
Gregory told the committee he and Deputy County Administrator Derek Hiland sent U.S. Cellular a framework for any future agreement between the company and the county. County officials said they believe the request falls in line with what other municipalities that allowed cellular companies to use public land to construct
SYCAMORE – The Sycamore City Council voted Jan. 3 during its first meeting of the new year to approve a resolution authorizing City Manager Michael Hall to designate the city’s 2023 Freedom of Information Act and Open Meetings Act officers.
“This is just a yearly resolution that we have to pass,” Hall said.
Illinois law requires government entities to designate at least one officer to handle Freedom of Information Act Requests. Gov-
cell towers have done to set rent and lease renewal terms.
“And so U.S. Cellular came back to us favorably and submitted a letter of intent suggesting they would like to pursue a road forward,” Gregory said.
According to the letter of intent, U.S. Cellular would rent a plot of land measuring 100 feet by 100 feet at 1826 Barber Greene Road for five years with 20 renewal terms, each for five years. Signed on behalf of U.S. Cellular by Missy Holcomb, the letter of intent proposed a monthly rent of $2,083.33 which could increase annually by 2.5%, according to the Dec. 2 letter.
According to the letter itself, it is not intended as a contract and is only intended to advance discussions about the potential transaction. Both DeKalb County and U.S. Cellular can terminate discussion between the parties on the matter at any time, for any reason whatsoever.
During the meeting, Gregory told the
committee the agreement could generate about $25,000 a year in revenue for the county, but he cautioned that the idea of an agreement between U.S. Cellular and DeKalb County still is in its infancy.
“I tell you this because we’re continuing our discussions with U.S. Cellular and I don’t want to necessarily go forward if there’s not interest in moving forward,” Gregory said.
“I would be in favor of it,” said board member Ellingsworth Webb, a Democrat from District 9 and head of the Facilities and Technology Committee.
Webb also said the rent would offset the cost of the life safety inspection services from Johnson Controls Fire Protection the committee had advanced during the committee meeting.
Gregory warned there could be an obstacle in the way of the transaction as the land itself, while owned by the county, sits within city of DeKalb limits.
erning bodies also have to select a designee to fulfill obligations made compulsory under the Open Meetings Act.
Mary Kalk and Kristian Dominguez were named city-wide FOIA officers, Mary Banasiak was named the police department FOIA officer, and Kevin Buick was named the Open Meetings Act officer.
Before the vote, Hall asked the council members if there were any questions.
“I just have one,” 4th Ward alderman David Stouffer said. “In the past, didn’t we have to approve like each person?”
Sycamore Mayor Steve Braser said he think’s that’s the case “only if there’s changes.”
Hall said the resolution covers the names of the people being designated as Freedom of Information Act and Open Meetings Act officers.
“And the resolution names each person,” Hall said.
First Ward alderman Josh Huseman motioned for the resolution to be adopted and the legislation was passed 8-0.

DeKALB – Many people will say they have a calling in life, but fewer can claim to have a call of duty in life.
DeKalb resident and U.S. Air Force veteran Michael Embrey has both going for him.
He said the reason he first became involved in helping the local veterans community is easy to pinpoint.
“When you first get out of the service, you want to forget about it as most young service members do,” Embrey said, adding that age has allowed him to reflect on how he gives his time. “You want to make sure these young people have the same respect and honor that they deserve coming out of the service. It humbles you a little bit when you think not only of what you’ve done but those before you. In my case, my father, my uncles.”
Embrey, a Missouri native, Northern
Illinois University graduate and retired NIU marching band director, was recently bestowed with the 2022 national and state Americanism awards for his service to veterans in the community.
Embrey said that being given these honors means a great deal to him.
“To receive it was well beyond my comprehension,” Embrey said. “I never went after an award like that, it just happened. It was very humbling to first win the state award, and then be invited to the national [convention,] and being told I was the national Americanism award winner, and to be the keynote speaker at their convention.”
For years, Embrey has been active in the community working to support veterans causes.
Between the Hometown Hero banners in downtown DeKalb and the honorary street naming to the new Veterans Memorial at the DeKalb Elks
Lodge, a variety of projects have been become a reality over the years thanks, in part, to Embrey’s efforts.
“We really didn’t have a large memorial in the city of DeKalb or a veterans presence,” he said. “There is a vets club at NIU. They hope to have a veterans club at Kishwaukee College, but we just needed that, I think, thrust to let people know we respect veterans.”
Embrey said it means a lot knowing that veterans are getting the respect they deserve.
He said it’s a good change of pace from what some experienced coming out of the Vietnam War.
“We were kind of rejected as being in the military,” Embrey said. “It’s nice that now it’s turned and that now people are respecting those that served their time.”
Embrey touted the recent completion of the Veterans Memorial at the DeKalb Elks Lodge.
“DeKalb really didn’t have any main or large Veterans Memorial other than flags here or there,” Embrey said. “I decided in 2018 that we really wanted to start building a project. I pursued various areas in town, and I finally asked the Elks if we could use their property to build the memorial; they agreed. … They gave us this land that they owned adjacent to their
property.”
Embrey lauded the occasion in 2020 when the city of DeKalb and the DeKalb American Legion Post 66 joined forces to dedicate and rename the entrance to Locust Street, from First to Fourth streets, Honorary Veterans Way.
“We have the corner of First and Locust [streets,] which local businessman John Pappas donated service flags,” Embrey said.
Embrey championed efforts to advocate for reserving parking spaces for veterans in downtown DeKalb.
“We’re one, if not the only, one of the few in the state of Illinois or in the Midwest that has reserved parking for veterans in the downtown area,” he said. “That also, I think, excited some of the local businesses. So many of the county buildings, like the banks, all have reserved parking for veterans. It just shows respect.”
As a veteran himself, Embrey said he knows all too well that more could be done to honor veterans for their service.
“It’s ironic that there are four days a year that we think about our veterans: Memorial Day, Flag Day, Fourth of July and Veterans Day,” Embrey said. “You don’t just think of them four days a year. It’s the whole year.”
Embrey served as a member of the U.S. Air Force Drum and Bugle Corps from 1967 to 1971.
“My four years’ tour of duty was actually playing music and being a musician arranger for the Air Force,” Embrey said.
Embrey said he’s long had a love for playing music, and it only grew when he joined the Air Force.
“We toured and entertained, but we were all required to play military funerals and a variety of events, from civic events to military funerals,” he said.
Embrey said he’s played taps locally, nationally and internationally.
When asked who’s the most important person he’s ever played taps for, Embrey said the answer is simple.
“My answer is every one of them,” Embrey said. “Because they all did what they had to do. And yes, I’ve played for dignitaries and I’ve played for officers and enlisted men. But every one of them is just as special as the next.”
In a small town which boasts about 6,000 residents lives a young couple. Saladin and Electra are both practical and diligent in all their endeavors. Their lives are happy. One day, they receive news from a distant relative Tilbury Foster, from a neighboring state, who mentions that he would be leaving $30,000 bequest for them in his will, provided that they make no inquiries about him and do not attend his funeral.

DeKALB – The winter can be a rough time for many, especially those without a home to call their own. Hope Haven’s shelter in DeKalb knows that, and staff said they’ve made sure to turn none away who are in need.
Hope Haven, a year-round shelter in DeKalb that offers supportive services for individuals and families without homes.
Lesly Wicks, who’s been the shelter’s executive director for the past 28 years, said Hope Haven normally houses almost 100 individuals a night. Inclement weather can often change that, however, even if beds are full.
“It’s always difficult when it’s cold because we’re generally always full, but when the weather gets to a point where it’s dangerous for people who may be staying in cars or have a tent in a park, or other places not meant for human habitation – we have a no turn away policy,” Wicks said. “Which means even if we have to put up extra cots we won’t turn anyone away because ... it could be deadly to even be living out in those kind of conditions.”
Wicks, 63, said the cold snap that saw temperatures in DeKalb County drop to about 10 below zero – with windchills close to 40 below zero –caused Hope Haven to be “really busy” days before Christmas.
Wicks said inclement weather – hot or cold – always brings more people to the shelter because homeless people who normally don’t use the shelter have to seek refuge when temperatures outside become unlivable.
“There are a lot of people who choose to stay out of the shelter, and the homeless people that stay out of the shelter, they don’t want to live in a shelter but cold weather or excessive hot weather will bring that population in,” Wicks said. “And it’s not a large population. We know one or two people that prefer to stay out in their cars and parks but with extreme weather they will come in.”
Hope Haven doesn’t have any special programs for winter, Wicks said, but the shelter does employ a registered nurse as a part of its clinical staff. The shelter also provides information about how to prevent frostbite in freezing weather.
Asked what the community could do to aid Hope Haven’s mission, Wicks said the shelter needs blankets. She said the shelter could also use pillows,
towels and fitted sheets for twin mattresses.
“Because we do serve a lot of people, almost a hundred a night – if you include all of our programs – so that’s a lot of stuff we need on an ongoing basis,” Wicks said. “A part of that is the shelter will stay full because of the weather and it will also bring in extra people which requires extra bedding.”
Angie Shaulis, Hope Haven’s emergency shelter coordinator, said the men’s side of the shelter has stayed the busiest this winter. As of Friday, Jan. 6, at least a couple of people staying at the shelter are sleeping on makeshift beds out of cots.
Wicks, who develops programs, supervises the staff and conducts public relations for the shelter, said the positive remarks she most often hears from those staying at the Hope Haven heralds the shelter’s culture.
“It’s a very supportive and empowering and almost homelike feeling in the shelter,” Wicks said. “I know it’s
only a temporary house for people that’s there. We definitely want them to be treated with respect and dignity. And so I think they really like the culture and how they’re treated at Hope Haven.”
One of the shelter’s residents, James, said he likes how the staff keeps him honest about financial goals he’s set for himself. James said his most recent paycheck was smaller than normal because of reduced holiday hours at his work, so he ended up using the money he earned to support
his family. He said a staff member encouraged him to save some of his income, saying every little bit counts.
Wicks currently is working from home so she can focus on writing a grant proposal for the shelter to go toward needed renovations.
Women and men have separate sleeping and commons areas inside the emergency shelter. Each common room has couches, tables and a TV. Bunk beds are lined in rows in the men’s sleeping area, along with a couple of cots.
On Jan. 6, plumbers were at the facility, repairing an issue near the shelter’s kitchen. Repairs like those are something Wicks is focusing on while working from home to write a grant proposal.
“The shelter was built 22 years ago so it’s had some wear and tear, so really we’d like to replace some flooring and upgrade one of the bathrooms in the family dorm. So that’s what I’m writing
grant for,” Wicks said.

There was a slight railroad accident on the Burlington right at the Waterman station, a night or so ago, in which the brakeman was badly bruised and his conductor slightly hurt, on the night freight. As the train passed the Waterman station, the fireman failed to grasp the orders which the station agent tried to hand him. In order to stop the train, the engineer puts on the brakes suddenly and several drawbars were pulled out. The train stopped almost instantly and the conductor and brakeman in the caboose were knocked from their seats, the stove overturned and a lot of other minor damage done. The brakeman was seriously bruised and was taken to an Aurora hospital on the fast 7:00 o’clock passenger.
Work on the DeKalb theatre, DeKalb’s new playhouse, is progressing rapidly now and many people stop to give the beautiful front a careful inspection. Today, much additional equipment for the place arrived, as three large loads of steam radiators were lined up in front of the place for an hour or more. The furniture is purchased and will be shipped as soon as the order comes from the manager. Plans now are about completed for opening the new playhouse about May 1.
National Guards of the city will enjoy the skating rink at the armory on Friday nights, while on other nights when the place is opened it will be turned over to the public. So far the Guards have not had much occasion to take advantage of it, with basketball and drill coming so often. This will make the men a fine place to skate, and will also be a form of diversion from the routine duties of the day.
Henry Dedrich, of DeKalb, put up a new windmill on his farm, south of Elva.
An unknown autoist driving a new sedan, failed to see an approaching train on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Line between DeKalb and Sycamore Tuesday night, and narrowly escaped death at the crossing. The road being unusually slippery, the driver of the car who had not been learned, was nearly on the crossing when the engine appeared a few feet distant. By using his emergency brake and swinging the machine around colliding with a telephone pole, the occupants of the car were uninjured. The car was badly damaged, however,
and had to be towed to a garage for many repairs.
A serious blaze was discovered about 1:30 o’clock this morning in the upstairs apartment at 1010 W. Lincoln Highway. Although the fire had a strong start, the blaze was brought under control by the DeKalb fire department, given able assistance by neighbors who formed a bucket brigade to furnish water for the booster pump.
“Station WLBK, the Friendly Voice of Northern Illinois.” That’s the salutation and the sign off for DeKalb’s newest medium of entertainment, education and information, a radio station. It’s a month old now, having first gone on the air December 8, and the novelty has somewhat worn off. It’s beginning to get that comfortable, settled feeling of “belonging,” of being a part of DeKalb.
The locomotive that spearheaded the growth of Chicago from a swampy village of 4,000 inhabitants to the transportation crossroads of the world is being groomed to ride the rails again. The engine, the Pioneer, has been moved to the shops of the Chicago and North Western railway system where it is being reconditioned for a key role in the railway’s centennial celebration this year.
Purchase of 553 acres of land and eight major buildings at the Sangamon Ordinance Plant, Illiopolis, Ill., by the DeKalb Hybrid Seed Company of DeKalb, was announced today by the War Assets Administration. The land and buildings were only a portion of the huge ordnance plant which loaded artillery shells for the Army services during the war. The portion purchased by the DeKalb Company was four of the nine shell-loading lies. The newly acquired property will be used for expansion of the company operations, officials said today, with inbred chicken breeding to use a major portion of the facilities.
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Kallembach have purchased a farm west of DeKalb and will move there March 1.
A warning to youngsters against the danger of hitching sleds to automobiles was issued this morning by Chief of Police B. F. Peck. The parents are also urged to point out the dangers of hitching rides to their children. With the streets covered with ice, most motorists drive with extreme caution and at low speeds but this tends to tempt the youngsters to hitch rides with their sleds.
A deal has been made in which William S. Whipple has sold his Genoa implement and farm equipment business to Hodgson Brothers Farm Service. Possession by the new owners takes place
immediately and the deal hinges upon the approval of the sale by the Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Company.
The Ben Gordon Center is made up of 22 staff members, including executive director Jim Graves, four psychologists, three psychiatrists, three social workers, three rehabilitation counselors, three mental health workers, three secretaries, a business manager and one medical doctor. The center took in 624 cases in 1972, 45 percent were under age 19. The real name of the center is the Ben Gordon Mental Health Center, but the “mental health” portion of the name is being soft-pedalled these days because of general misinformation about the meaning of mental health.
Boisterous is the word to describe the Youth Services Bureau. Boisterous and full of youthful energy that adults can only hope to direct, not control. Kids go there. WLS is blaring from the radio. Much running up and down stairs is going on. One room fills up with smoke and an occasional curse from pool players, Monopoly is being played by younger kids in another room, adolescent girls run around trying to organize a bake sale and upstairs, the section of the house reserved for counseling, a boy complains that his father makes him be home by 7 p.m. But no crimes are being committed, the young people are only trying to flee the nest of some of the few ways still condoned by society.
Police believe the promise of home repair help allowed two men to rob a home Thursday. According to police, two men approached a house in the 700 block of Glidden Avenue and talked with an elderly resident about tree trimming. The elderly resident then allowed the two men into the house to further discuss the chore. Once in the house, one of the men distracted the resident while the other went into a bedroom and stole an undisclosed amount of cash.
Hungry residents looking for a place to eat may have noticed fewer options than usual in the area. Three restaurants, Box Office Brewery and Matthew Boone’s in the downtown area and the Stadium Club on West Lincoln Highway, have packed up shop and locked their doors for good.

DeKalb resident discusses parenting in the child welfare system in memoir
DeKALB – Patricia Ihm, retired early intervention therapist and foster parent, discusses the challenges and revelations of parenting the children who come to her family through the child welfare system in her memoir, “Isn’t That Enough? Musings of Motherhood and the Meaning of Life.”
The memoir is scheduled to be released by Our Galaxy Publishing on Tuesday, Jan. 17, according to a news release.
The book includes journal entries, each of which reflects on the inner truth of caring for children who have experi-
enced early childhood trauma in order to prompt readers to consider the impact of an imperfect system. The memoir also reinforces healing, preserves the importance of family and confirms the beauty in all that is unknown.
“Isn’t That Enough?” is a book for families and those who have felt isolation and loneliness on their journey. It’s also for those still willing to try and find where they belong despite adversity.
Ihm’s hope is that the book will raise awareness, evoke conscious conversations, provide support to those who need it and validate the complex experiences of motherhood.

She was the daughter of Dmetro Snatenchuk and Mary (Mandryk) Snatenchuk and the older sister of Sylvia (Sally) (Snatenchuk) Kowalski.
The Snatenchuk family lived on a farm where all work was done manually. In an effort to give his family a better life, Dmetro moved his family to Chicago, IL in the early 1940s.
Nadia and Sylvia attended Schurz High School in Chicago where both excelled in their studies. Nadia then graduated from Northwestern Business College where she was later employed as a teacher at the College. There, Nadia met and taught her
future husband, Chester Lachowski. Nadia and Chester were married on June 13, 1953 at St. Sylvester’s Church in Chicago.
Nadia went on to work at various companies; Florsheim Shoes, Club Aluminum and Sears, until the birth of her first child, Melanie. Fourteen months later, her second daughter, Sherry, was born.
After years of raising her daughters, Nadia returned to the workforce where she was employed at Schnadig Corporation, a major furniture manufacturer. Nadia was a Cost Accountant at the home office for more than 25 years and eventually retired. In 2001, Nadia and her sister Sylvia, moved to DeKalb to be near Nadia’s daughter, Sherry. Nadia lived many years in DeKalb enjoying her retired life with her sister, both widows.
Nadia made many friendships as a member of The Catholic Daughters and with many other women in the DeKalb area. She looked forward to spending time with the ladies and truly enjoyed their company.
On November 16, 2022, Nadia passed away after suffering major injuries from a fall in her home. She was 90 years old.
