A spirit of love
Byerley reflects on a life of service By Cindy Taylor
Wanda Cox Byerley was born in a roadhouse on Bob Gray Road, and come April she will celebrate her 79th year. “They tell me there was a bloody spot on the floor where I was born, and they had to put a rug over it to keep it hidden,” said Byerley. You can travel all across Union County, but you would be hard pressed to find a livelier character or one with a more fascinating history. Byerley is the widow of Everett Cox and is currently married to Paul Byerley. A person could sit for hours just listening to her unbelievable yet authentic tales, but occasionally she will be dead serious. “My greatest honor has been to be the mother of Lynn and Greg Cox,” said Byerley. Byerley moved repeatedly as a child from the inner city of Knoxville to the outskirts of Union County. She asked her father once why they moved so much. She says he told her that the rent came due so they had to move. Byerley knew from the age of 6 that she wanted to teach. Her mother used to tell her to go “plack.” Byerley understood the word to mean go “play like.” Byerley would sit at the windowsill and pretend to teach music or other subjects. “Being the oldest child of eight and the only daughter of Clifford and Virgie O’Dell Woods gave me pecking order and taught me how to deal with rowdy boys,” said Byerley. She actually taught five of her brothers. “It was a joy to learn, and I had such wonderful teachers,” said Byerley. “To teach people to sing from the
Wanda Cox Byerley at her second home in the Union County Historical Society Museum and Library. Photo by C. Taylor soul and be happy or to teach them something to improve their life is a good thing. When I had Martha Nash for a teacher, I knew that was exactly what I wanted to do.” As a student at Horace Maynard High School, Byerley worked for two years in the office there. When she graduated, she moved on to the fields of health care and retail. When the one-room school of Pine Grove needed a teacher, Byerley left her jobs and “got over to the hill” at UT to become certified as a teacher. She went on to teach at Big Ridge and Maynardville elementary schools and then Union County High School. She also helped create the first summer school. She has been a teacher, a teaching principal and even at onetime “a political reject” in her words. As a teacher she frequently got in her “Grandma Square” when her students asked questions about religion or sex, topics other teachers often avoided.
“I had two rules when I taught,” said Byerley. “Work and play. I told the students that to waste time was stealing.” Byerley says there are three things students today need. “Make sure they have the basic skills of the 5th, 6th and 7th grade language arts and the same thing in math. The third thing that makes a successful citizen is to teach children to feel good about themselves.” “Hopefully all of your teachers are the best,” said Byerley. “But your best teachers need to be in the lower grades. When asked about the most challenging time in her life, Byerley was quick to respond. “The first day I was heading to Pine Grove to teach, the biggest knot came up in my throat, and I thought I would choke to death,” said Byerley. She was 19 at the time.
Byerley retired from teaching in 1999 and then really got busy. She has been on the board and president of the Union County Historical Society and is still a member. She also volunteers as a teacher for the GED classes. “Dennis Branum came back for his GED and remembered that I was the person who had delivered him,” said Byerley. “I was teaching and got word that his mom was down and had no help, so I went and delivered her baby on my lunch hour. I wrapped him and put him in a box close to a heater so he could stay warm, made the mother comfortable then went back to school and never missed a class.” Byerley says becoming a Christian was the most wonderful experience of her life. “I can say this and they can’t sue me for saying it. When I was 9 years old Jesus accepted me as one of his. As I went through life I was never lonely because I had my buddy. I was never smart enough to do the things I have done but Jesus has done them through me,” she said. Byerley says she inherited a spirit of love from her grandparents, James and Arlettie Perry Woods. She was the first grandchild and very well loved. When she walked into the Historical Society Museum and Library and found the page with the 1900 census and her relatives were there, she decided she had to work at the society to help others discover their roots. “Everyone needs a spirit of love,” said Byerley. “Money will spend, houses will burn; if you didn’t keep up your soul it would go bad. But if you have the spirit of love you have inherited a whole lot. I’m going to keep walking as long as the good Lord lets me, and when I’m gone I hope people will remember one thing, that I tried to help somebody.” “I have done a lot of things on this journey,” said Byerley. “I hope at least a few of them were done well. The jury is still out.”
A new era, for now By Cindy Taylor

The first item on the agenda when the Union County school board met Oct. 19 was to discuss the termination of Director of Schools Wayne Goforth. In spite of efforts by Goforth’s attorney, Herb Moncier, to dissuade the board from making a decision that evening, a determination was made. Goforth was suspended without pay pending presentation of charges at a future workshop, and Marilyn Toppins was voted in as temporary director of schools. Moncier filed suit Oct. 21 in Union County Circuit Court on behalf of Goforth. The suit names the four members of the school board who voted to suspend Goforth and demands that they personally pay his salary for the time he his suspended. The four named were Don Morgan, Billy Sexton, David Coppock and Danny Wayne Collins. Both Goforth and Moncier declined to comment further. Many at the meeting who wished to remain anonymous said that this had been too long in coming. Others, such as Ron Erikson, were not happy with the proceedings.

“I may quit as chair of P16 as a result of how this was handled,” said Erikson. “They (the school board) should not have done this in a public forum.” Even though the school system has already passed a balanced budget, many residents and school system employees continue to be unhappy. This includes the bus drivers and teachers. “I think we do a good job,” said bus driver Gerald Shoffner. “We are the first ones who get brought up every year when cuts are made. Give us a break.” Toppins spoke as a representative for the teachers in Union County regarding the increased insurance premiums that are set to come out of their paychecks. Her figures did not agree with what was listed in the budget. She voiced other complaints as well. “You are making money off of the teachers who have single coverage,” said Toppins. “It would be very refreshing if we were told the truth up front and notice given to employees as to what we are facing. It is personnel and the director who should be informing us, and that is who
Then teacher, now Director of Schools Marilyn Toppins (right) disagrees with Union County Public Schools Business Manager Glenn Coppock (left) on budget numbers. Photo by C. Taylor should be held accountable.” There still appears to be confusion among school board members as to how much jurisdiction the county actually has over the budget of the school system. A balanced budget was presented to the county weeks ago, but at an increase in Maintenance of Effort funding for the county to the tune of $65,589 due to specific cuts the board had to make. Board members were unsure as to whether or not they must accept what has been handed to them by the commission. The bottom line was that they could vote to decline the commission’s request to increase the percentage of projected revenue for the coming

year but at the risk of a further delay in state funds being released. Since the school board is operating with a cash balance of around $5,000, members voted unanimously to agree to the projection and add that to the school budget. The county mayor’s office said that the budget was mailed to Nashville on Oct. 24. “Nobody on this board wants to see teachers lose their jobs or get their pay cut,” said school board chair Brian Oaks. “I would encourage all of the teachers to approach the County Commission to seek more funding for the school system. I promise you right now that if we do not dismiss Goforth, we will be looking at cutting his salary.”
While the school system continues to struggle financially, a couple of local banks are doing what they can to help. Kim Ray, president of the Sharps Chapel PTO and marketing director for First Century Bank explained. “(Supervisor of Elementary Education) Jimmy Carter approached the bank a couple of years ago and requested that we start printing the report cards for the schools,” said Ray. “First Century and FSG have been doing that since.” This is not an inexpensive venture, but the two banks charge nothing for their service. Ray said that they are happy to take that burden off of the school system. Maintenance Supervisor Mike Johnson brought a plan to the board that could actually generate funds through TVA-EnerNOC Demand Response. “This program has been around for three years and has done very well for the participants,” said John Carter, Business Development Manager for EnerNOC. On an ending note, Morgan asked that an independent auditor to be hired to oversee the school system budget. No date was set for the presentation of charges against Goforth.

business Business of the week Adult Day Services A much-needed service has arrived in Union County in the form of Adult Day Services. Owner Kathy Chesney is one of the newest members of the Union County Business and Professional Association and just opened her doors last month. Chesney plans to offer day-by-day services to seniors and physically challenged individuals who are not ready for long-term care. The center has two relaxation and socialization rooms, a dining and gathering room, and a basic kitchen. There is also an outdoor space that Chesney plans to continue to expand next spring by adding a walking trail and a garden for residents to putter around in. “We are trying to keep the center homey with handmade quilts and paintings on the walls,” said Chesney. “We want our enrollees to feel very comfortable and at home here. Our goal is to improve the physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of our clients.” A spot can be guaranteed either full time or part time or for specific days of the week. When space is available, Chesney will also take clients as-needed.

The daily schedule will include exercise, spiritual uplifting, fun time, friendship building and music. “I would love to get a caregivers support group going,” said Chesney. “We need to reach out to this group as a community.” Chesney is also offering the center for group activities during off hours at no charge and is hopeful a club such as the FCE would be interested in hosting quilting bees or classes there. Chesney will be hosting a socialization experience at the center from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 1. Those considering enrollment can come for free for the entire day. Two meals and a snack will be provided at no charge and there will be Bingo with prizes. ETHRA will provide free transportation if needed. Space is limited, so sign up soon.

arents often mistake their children’s diarrhea or vomiting for a bug or stomach flu when more times than not that isn’t the case. Dr. Mark Far (Farkhondeh) of Makzy Pediatrics says that actual stomach flu doesn’t exist and a stomach bug is rarely the cause of the upset. “Children can get an upset stomach for many reasons,” said Far. “Stress either at school or home or improper diet is more likely the culprit.” A long time proponent of preventative medicine, Far is always careful to treat the whole child rather than just the symptoms. “We do, of course, use medication when necessary, but I am often asked to treat a symptom without proper diagnosis,” said Far. “With the stomach there can be so many reasons for the symptoms, I really need to see the patient in order to treat the correct problem.”
Far said that gastrointestinal problems (stomach upsets) can be a symptom of a more complex problem. Suppressing vomiting and diarrhea by administering medication can mask problems such as twisted bowels, acute appendicitis, poisons, etc. Far said that once a diagnosis has been secured, the most important next step is to hydrate the patient. If a child has diarrhea and/ or vomiting and all other possible illnesses are ruled out, the caregiver should discontinue feeding for one to two hours, especially with vomiting. The child can then be given liquids such as Pedialyte in small amounts. One to two ounces every 10-20 minutes in order to give the intestines a break. Liquids can then be gradually increased as tolerated. Once the diarrhea and/or vomiting have been reduced, solid foods such as bananas, yogurt, rice, applesauce

The sacroiliac joints – you have two of them – are where the sacrum, the triangular bone at the base of the spine, meets the ilium, the wide, flat upper portion of the pelvis. The joints
help the pelvis distribute weight and absorb shock. Trauma, like a fall or sudden jarring from a jump, or from an accident, can injure the ligaments that keep the joints stable.

or toast can be reintroduced gradually with small portions. “It can take as much as two to three days to overcome simple diarrhea and for the stomach to return to normal,” said Far. “If
this treatment is followed and the symptoms do not improve, medical attention is needed.” Makzy Pediatrics is located in Maynardville on Oakland Lane and can be reached at 992-9977.
Chiropractic treatment is effective in dealing with sacroiliac issues. Immediately following an injury, the chiropractor may treat you up to three times in 10 days or until the pain and inflammation have subsided. A sacroiliac belt, which helps support the pelvis, and ice packs may be part of the initial treatment. Therapy may also include spinal adjustment to help restore mobility, massage, soft-tissue therapy and ultrasound. The chiropractor may
also prescribe exercises that will help you get comfortable and get back moving. As pain subsides, treatment will get more spaced out. The object of maintenance treatment will be to protect you from a recurrence. Talk with your chiropractor about ways to avoid injury to your sacroiliac joints.

Center staff and members thanked Bob Sharp of Flowers by Bob for providing the flower arrangements for
birthdays each month and Teresa’s Bakery for providing birthday cakes each month.
Even though the Union County High School Patriot football program has struggled this year, the senior players still have lots of heart and plan to win their next game. “We’re going to win big this Friday night against Gibbs,” said squad members on Thursday. The seniors are close to the end of their season but still intend to go out with a bang.

he ballots are in for the second annual Best of Union County, and it was a wild ride with many close votes. Union County is filled with wonderful businesses. Residents cast ballots for their favorites to select the best of the best. The contest is sponsored each year by the Union County Chamber of Commerce, where the votes were collected and tabulated. Pay a visit to these outstanding businesses to say “Congratulations” and thank them for the great services they offer.
BEST RESTAURANT, BEST CHEESEBURGER Pete’s Place 3905 Maynardville Highway, Maynardville, 992-3698 Pete and Nancy Chadwell owned Pete’s Place until 1991, and Keith Nease reopened with the same name 10 years ago. For two years in a row, the restaurant has been chosen by customers as the best. “Pete is the namesake of the place, and I have to give a lot of credit to him,” said Nease. “He and Nancy have given me a great deal of support.” Nease himself is a bit camera shy but wanted to give credit to his cooks and appreciation to his customers in Union and surrounding counties. People travel from Grainger and Claiborne counties and beyond for the food and friendliness. Randi McNutt of Cutting Crew
BEST HAIR SALON – Cutting Crew BEST EMPLOYER – Randi McNutt of Cutting Crew
– Cindy Taylor, editor
Union Center, Maynardville, 992-5757 The Cutting Crew in Maynardville won Best Hair Salon for the second year in a row, and salon owner Randi McNutt won Best Employer. Randi owns Cutting Crew salons in Maynardville, Halls and Dandridge. Her father, Jim McNutt, founded the salon chain, and the business has always been locally and family owned. The Maynardville salon has been open for eight years. Randi says the salon’s success is due to her great employees. “I have the best employees,” she said. “I’m good to my employees, and they stay a long time. They say they’ll never leave.” Randi’s daughter works at the Maynardville salon, and Randi is proud that her employees live in the communities where they work. “I’m proud of my employees, and I want to thank the customers for voting for us.”

The store has been instrumental in promoting community events and providing for needs within the community. “The community has just been so good to support us, we feel that we have to give back,” said Manager Scott Inklebarger. “It’s a great partnership, and that’s what it’s all about.”
2600 Maynardville Highway, Maynardville, 992-5245; 111 Tazewell Pike, Luttrell, 992-5293 With the fast pace of living and financial struggles of the recent economic downturn, it’s nice to know you can still find a friendly face when you have financial questions. Most customers of Commercial Bank enjoy visiting the two branches in Union County so much that they prefer the face-to-face rather than the online experience. “We try to provide fast, accurate, friendly service,” said Maynardville Branch Manager Brenda Sweet. “We treat each member like family.”

The Maynardville office has been open since 2003, and Powell Auction has been family owned since the 1970s. Brian got his auctioneer’s license in 1987. He’s been assisting with auctions since he was in high school, and it’s a trade he’s known all his life. His motto is “Has gavel, will travel.” Missy Phillips Brian Phillips “He talks fast, honestly. That’s what men do best,” joked Missy. Missy has been a Realtor since 1995, specializing in Union, Claiborne and Grainger counties, but she goes all over East Tennessee. She loves to help people. She’s a Union County native, and the Phillips family lives in Maynardville. Missy and Brian say they’re a good team, offering “the best of both worlds.” Their son, Justin, works in the family business, too. As for winning Best of Union County, “It’s a big honor,” said Missy. “Union County has been great to us. Everybody here is great to work with.”
We received so many ballots listing the late Dennis Allen “Pinky” Wallace Jr. as Best Handyman that we have given him an honorable mention in this category. Mr. Wallace was a Luttrell native who passed away suddenly Aug. 11. He owned and operated the Pinky Muffler and Tire Company in Maynardville. He was also a farmer. Mr. Wallace’s skills helped keep Union County’s cars rolling, and he will be missed.

Brandi and Jack Bunch are juggling family and business, and it hasn’t always been easy. When the couple started Jaxx, they put every dime they had into the store. “For two years, there were days we didn’t know if we could get to work because we didn’t have money for gas,” said Bunch. “We pushed and worked from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week, and it finally started paying off.” Bunch offers drive-thru service and strives for quickness. Anything you need from the store you can grab at the drive-thru, including milk. Jaxx provides a huge range of roll-your-own products, and Bunch says these have become his most popular selling items due to their lower prices. “Our prices are competitive, and we have basic groceries as well as the largest selection of tobacco products around,” said Bunch.

Maybe it’s time to call Allen Beeler to liven up that green and take it to a whole new level. Beeler can handle all of your landscaping needs right down to a water feature if that is your dream. He also takes care of lawn maintenance either by contract or as-needed. Beeler could often be seen at the Union County Farmers Market this summer selling hanging baskets, vegetables and annuals. He also makes scented soy candles that are selling well at the markets. “Our primary focus is landscaping and mixed containers. People seem to be very interested in that right now,” said Beeler. “I appreciate the votes from the people in my county.”

Pastor Jim Mulkey is happy to be a part of a church where everyone one is welcomed. Revival Vision Church of God has been on a mission since 2004 to be a lighthouse in the community, and this lighthouse appears to be shining. Residents voted this church as the friendliest in Union County, and Mulkey is happy to hear that. Both he and his wife, Lanelle, are on staff at the church and have been involved in ministry for most of their lives. Their son, Todd, is a member of the worship team. “I want to thank everyone who voted for us,” said Mulkey. “It is great to know that they have such a high opinion of our church family.”

596 John Deere Drive, Maynardville, 992-7181 When you think of professionalism in the workplace, you often think of physician’s offices or banks. The people in Union County thought of Dr. Jared Graves and his staff at Union County Animal Hospital. Pet owners and others who enter the office are treated with immediacy, courtesy and respect; and so are their furry friends. Owner and Veterinarian Jared Graves is an animal lover who also has a heart for the drug issues in Union County. Graves has been instrumental in organizing events to help combat the problem. The next county-wide prayer meeting to combat drug abuse will be Nov. 20.

Brandi and Jack Bunch are juggling family and business, and it hasn’t always been easy. When the couple started Jaxx, they put every dime they had into the store. “For two years, there were days we didn’t know if we could get to work because we didn’t have money for gas,” said Bunch. “We pushed and worked from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week, and it finally started paying off.” Bunch offers drive-thru service and strives for quickness. Anything you need from the store you can grab at the drive-thru, including milk. Jaxx provides a huge range of roll-your-own products, and Bunch says these have become his most popular selling items due to their lower prices. “Our prices are competitive, and we have basic groceries as well as the largest selection of tobacco products around,” said Bunch.

BEST ARTIST Aurora Bull 165 Autumn’s Way, Maynardville, 992-0163 Aurora Bull is a gracious host and amazing artist. A selftaught artist who first began putting her images on canvas with pastels, Bull now prefers oils for their ease of movement. Her paintings depict nature and art at its finest and invite the viewer into a world where reality and dreams meet. Bull has won numerous awards for her paintings and has a wall of ribbons to show for her years of study. She has been featured in numerous magazines and her art now hangs on the walls of corporate businesses and private homes throughout the United States. Bull has her studio in her home and many of her original paintings are featured there. “Spring Awakening” is her newest piece and the original hangs in her living room along with one of her most famous oils and winner of three major awards, “Mountaintop Rivalry.” Fall and spring are her busiest times and yet Bull still has time to teach five classes every week. “Being acknowledged by the people of Union County in this way is such a great honor,” said Bull.

Labs are drawn and processed at the center, and X-rays and bone scans can be performed on-site as well. Most patient needs can be met without leaving the Center, including minor lacerations. “We are looking forward to adding to our staff in the future,” said Chinta, who has been a physician for 22 years and started Caring Medical 13 years ago. “We try to gear our practice toward the needs of our community and appreciate that they consider us the friendliest medical office.”
BEST EDUCATOR Anthony Malone Some of the Best of Union County winners were surprised when they were told about the vote results, but probably none was more shocked than Horace Maynard Middle School teacher Anthony Malone. Malone was informed in the school office, and the staff was not at all surprised by the announcement. Malone teaches 8th grade American history and sponsors the 8th grade History Club, whose members will be going to Washington, D.C., in the spring. “Oh, my gosh!” said Malone. “What can I say about something like this?

This poem doesn’t say something; it is what it says.” He went through the poem word by word, helping us appreciate the imagery, the sensuous sound and pace of the words, the arrangement of the letters. He pointed out the perfection of the brief moment captured in the poem, a moment that is balanced in perfect maturity: ripeness, suspended between growth and decay. He waxed eloquent also about the perfection of the arrangement of words: the three stanzas (three being a perfect number: beginning, middle, end), and the fact that all the senses get drawn into play. The first stanza, he noted, is all about taste, touch and smell. The second deals with sight, and the

ptimism is linked to good health. Encouragement is wherever you find it. Fortunes are rooted in the power of positive thinking. Sometime soon those still wearing orange sunglasses will stop looking back at the wreckage of what might have been and switch their focus to bowl eligibility. Six victories open the door to one of the many minor bowls. Go Vols! Give us six! Nipping Middle Tennessee State will be a giant step forward. After that comes an inconvenient trip to Arkansas and then the old faithfuls, Vandy and Kentucky. Push hard, men. End this season with a bang! Ah yes, Johnny Majors had it right, people remember what you do in November. And December. Last year, Tennessee and the officials found a way for North Carolina to prevail in the lovely Music City Bowl. OK, so it required overtime. And Tyler Bray didn’t notice the Tar Heel linebacker. If going to Nashville leaves something to be desired, there are several other potential destinations with excit-

At about this stage of the discussion, some dull cynic will ask, “Why bother?” There are valid reasons to covet minor bowl invitations. Some donors don’t want to go which reduces university losses on the guest list. Coaches are in favor of all bowl invitations. They receive extra pay. Bonus is a key word in all Mike Hamilton contracts. Players like bowl bids. They receive funds for individual travel, then pool or hitch rides and pocket profits. They also receive bowl gifts, watches, cameras, iPods. Some work. Fans, richly blessed, applaud bowl opportunities. Bowl trips make memories. Good neighbor Carl was never able to forget the Garden State Bowl, 28-21 over Wisconsin on Dec. 13, 1981. Steve Alatorre was MVP. Even minor bowls are important. They are status
symbols. Well, sort of. They are rewards for not losing seven or more games. They supposedly create good feelings about the future. We will definitely get ’em next year. Young players who are now just watching get extra practice opportunities. No doubt you noticed widespread improvement generated by the additional workouts of last December. Bowl bids are recruiting tools. If prospects feed on history lessons, we can offer a thick book. Tennessee has been bowling 49 times. In the official 2011 brochure, it says the Volunteers traditionally provide an exciting bowl spectacle with high-powered offense and grudging defense. How about that! It is a splendid idea for Tennessee fans to look ahead boldly to bowl eligibility. Soon and very soon, let us cheer that accomplishment, no matter where it leads. The alternative, missing out, is simply not acceptable. Staying home by the fireside, no matter how large is your TV screen, is absolutely awful during bowl season.

Later that day, Mr. Booker drove to their houses to check on the students. The next day they stayed in the ESL room. The ELLs had a time to talk about what they saw. There were some interpreters there to help them.” What happened Aug. 21 caused Booker to try a new approach to teaching. “Following the shooting, I threw out all classroom rules,” Booker said in 2009. “Instead, I created three maxims: 1. We are a team; 2. We do the right thing; 3. We use order in everything we do. “I put those on the wall, and when we started the day, I would have them recite that as a class.” “Byron Booker gives unCentral High School English as Second Language teacher stintingly of his time, his Byron Booker was named Tennessee Teacher of the Year last energy and his personal reThursday night.
