Governor tasks 18 agencies to promote growth By Sandra Clark Gov. Bill Haslam has unveiled a strategic plan to advance communities and economic development in Tennessee’s rural counties. Last week Haslam released his Rural Task Force’s report, compiled by more than 120 people representing business, agriculture, tourism and local governments. Three key commissioners co-chair the task force: Randy Boyd, Community and Economic Development; Jai Templeton, Agriculture; and Kevin Triplett, Tourist Development. “Despite the unprecedented growth occurring in our state, many of Tennessee’s rural areas are not experiencing the same prosperity as urban areas,� Boyd said. “This strategic plan provides a potential menu of options to
help transform and grow our rural communities.� In a press release, Templeton added: “A strong group of citizens is directing this effort with a vested interest in Tennessee’s rural areas. Much more work must be done, but this report lays a solid foundation for the future. I am grateful for the renewed interest in growing Tennessee’s rural communities and the recognition of the importance of agriculture. When our small towns and countryside thrive, we all benefit.� Triplett said the state is experiencing record-breaking tourism numbers, but 70 percent of that economic impact is in five counties. “It is imperative we find ways to elevate awareness and visitation to other areas,� he said.
SUBOXONE Treating opiate addiction
“Some of the most rural parts of the state are the richest in scenic beauty, history, authentic music and outdoor adventure. Tourism development in those areas is economic development.� The Task Force’s recommendations focus on capacity building and placemaking. Capacity-building recommendations include health initiatives such as an incentives program for health care professionals in rural Tennessee and an oral health pilot; education programs to encourage work-based learning and a new rural teacher initiative; plans to reduce recidivism through employment programs as well as resources for rural entrepreneurs and small businesses. Recommendations for placemaking, or the planning and de-
sign of community resources to promote overall well-being, call for tourism investment and additional site development resources, among other proposals to encourage retail and business growth in rural communities. The Task Force is already working to implement some of its recommendations, including assetbased planning, one-stop-shop community resource guides and the Retail Academy. The Task Force will also support and empower local communities to build upon these programs to develop their own local programs. The full report can be found at www.tn.gov/news/46047. This writer will examine specific aspects of the report in relationship to Union County in future editions. Stay tuned!

Put a chiropractor on your team By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC
Chiropractors don’t pretend to have all the answers for everything that ails you. They don’t do dental work, for instance, or dermatology. When surgery is necessary, they don’t do that either. But a chiropractor should be part of your overall health team. With the increasing recognition of the value of chiropractic by, among other parties, the federal government, physicians and insurance companies, chiropractors are more frequently called upon to assess and treat patients. For instance, there is no longer much dispute about the value of chiropractic as an effective, economical, noninvasive and nonphar-
maceutical method for treating lower back pain. And a chiropractor will not hesitate to refer you to another health-care provider for treatment of a condition outside his or her area of expertise. Certainly there are many illnesses, chronic conditions and diseases that do not respond to chiropractic care. A cancer patient, for instance, needs the care of an oncologist, a physician who specializes in that disease. If you don’t have one already, talk with a chiropractor about joining your health-care team.

A big sweet potato and a German spy When you go to a festival, no telling what you will encounter. As I arrived at the Union County Heritage Festival, I could not help noticing this very large sweet potato in the center of the authors table. I marveled at the size, the shape and its weight. There was a smaller version, but still a very large sweet potato. I believe it was awarded at the end of the day to Ben Woods. Surprisingly, Wanda Byerley told me I could take the really big sweet potato home with me. I thought, yes, here’s a story; and I have it. I’ve made a picture to prove it. I called Wanda to get more information for you. Mary Charles Perry Ellison and her husband, Wayne Ellison, have a farm in Sharps Chapel. Wayne, son of Theodore and Georgia Ellison, works for Tennessee Wildlife Management Agency and farms on the side (or vice versa). Mary Charles issues burn permits for TWRA and works the fire season from Oct. 15 to
Bonnie Peters The Ellison Giant Sweet Potato May 15 each year down in the Chuck Swan area. Like any good farmer, Wayne found a spot of good ground and planted his garden; but what a year to try to grow anything through this drought. However, it didn’t seem to bother his sweet potatoes. Someone passed on some sweet potato slips to Wayne and he found a few sweet potatoes in a box, cut the “eyes” and planted them to finish out his row. Mary Charles said they were totally surprised at the number and size of the sweet potatoes when they started digging the row. She said they probably sold about three bushels in addition to the two potatoes they gave Wanda. This big sweet potato tipped my scales at 4½
pounds. I’m saving it for Thanksgiving Dinner and will make a sweet potato pie or sweet potato casserole. I haven’t decided yet. The next weekend was the Homecoming at Museum of Appalachia. An old school friend, Helen McMahan Foster, always stops by to see me and we always exchange a few history notes. Helen told me about a person who just showed up in the Blue Mud community by the name of Edd Luby or Lubie. She told me there are only three living people who remember him – Kyle Ridenour, Doug Warwick and herself. I’ve, of course, talked with all three. All were very young, but he left an impression. She says he had a good person-
CLARIFICATIONS ■ In the Oct. 19 edition of the Union County Shopper News, we mistakenly referred to the Sharps Chapel Book Station as a library. Although the book station in Sharps Chapel may be getting a new home in the restored Oak Grove School, it has not as yet been upgraded to a library. ■ Nicole Brown with Union County Highway Department wrote to say a recent story
about Union County purchasing three new dump trucks incorrectly stated that the county worked off a bid from the Knox County purchasing department. “The trucks will be purchased through National Auto Fleet Group (NJPA) under the NJPA bid number 102811.” Union County is able to use these bids\prices because it is a member of the NJPA.

At this point, we are not sure if he ever owned the property he lived on or if Doug’s grandfather Marion Warwick just let him build a small house on his property. Anyway, he lived on Satterfield Lane just off Highway 61 west. He had told Mr. Warwick he wanted to be close to the lake to build rowboats.

Glamour and heartbreak For generations, Tennessee football has been the biggest show in town. It is a glamorous game, full house at Neyland Stadium, color, pageantry, Smokey, standing ovations, “Rocky Top” again and again -- and even ESPN GameDay if excitement peaks. Fans worship the Volunteers. Have you ever been to the Vol Walk? Thousands and more renew wedding vows with the Vols each spring when they skip a car payment to buy season tickets. Lives are planned around the schedule. Memories are forever. Long run. Pick six. Eightyyard pass on the opening play. Letterman status carries all the way to obituaries. We never forget. Honors are set in stone. Little boys are taught to recite the Hall of Fame list. All-Americans are held in awe. There is one notch up, a number retired. And then there is Peyton Manning. There is also a flip side to Tennessee football fame and fortune. It comes in different degrees, obscurity, disappointment, even heartbreak. Today its name is Danny O’Brien. Danny was a foot soldier, a defensive tackle from Flint, Mich., a warrior with more toughness than talent. He liked camouflage hunting gear, country music, big trucks and all things outdoors. He said he chose Tennessee because it felt like home. He would have been a good fit in Union County. He redshirted. He waited his turn. He could plug a hole and keep blockers off linebackers but it often appeared his primary job was to keep a position warm until a terrific recruit matured

and took his place. The multitudes never knew Danny. He started the six games he played this season, one last year and a dozen as a sophomore when the roster was limited – but there were no landmark accomplishments. One moderate fan had never heard of him until TV cameras zoomed in on the prayer meeting at Texas A&M. Danny was down and not moving much. Teammates grasped the gravity of the situation. They took a knee. Medical experts feared the worst, critical head or spinal injury. They called for a big board to support the big body and gingerly lifted him onto a John Deere wagon to be hauled away. That was the last we saw of Danny, 11:44 to go in the fourth quarter. There was good news at the hospital, no debilitating damage. He recovered sufficiently to fly home with the team. A few hours later, he got fired. Butch Jones said it was a violation of team rules. Butch didn’t make the decision. The penalty came down from the university. Best guess is a third failed drug test. Teammates expressed surprise and hurt. Danny was very popular. As a fifth-year senior, he had seen it all, losses to Vanderbilt, coaching changes, seasons of

Johnson and Dontavis Sapp, sheriff’s deputies charged O’Brien with criminal impersonation, resisting arrest and underage consump Danny O’Brien tion of alcohol. The real sin was the fake ID. Jones imposed what he considered proper punishment. The court eventually dismissed the case. Danny got in trouble again in September 2015. He was suspended. He said the correct things, that he was learning from his blunders, “partying mistakes and all that stuff,” and that he would cut out the distractions out of respect for the team. He missed two games. Finally came the straw that broke the camel’s back. Tennessee football didn’t end right for Danny O’Brien. I was sorry to see him go. Down deep, he is a good man who made bad decisions. He got a degree but gave more than he got. I liked something else. Danny’s dad, Kelly, and grandfather, Phil, served in the Army. Danny was proud of that. On Veterans Day, he said, “Thank you to the true heroes who defend our flag and freedom.” No question that Danny O’Brien stands for the national anthem. I like that.

Her grandpa, of course, said why no, I need my license plate. Mr. Luby said something to the effect of “What would you do if someone just took it?” Her grandpa said, “I don’t know.” The next morning, the license plate was gone and so was Mr. Luby. He was never heard from again, except someone heard of a newspaper account of him leaving the United States, trying to get back to Germany. The people in the community believed him to be a German spy – the only one ever heard of in Union County. When the little house that was covered in tar paper was finally torn down they found all kinds of antennas and maps. If anyone has information about Mr. Luby, please share it with me.

Passing the torch As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you. Be strong and courageous. … (Joshua 1:5b NRSV)
Millers Chapel holds delicious fundraiser Millers Chapel United Methodist Church knows how to raise money: piping hot pancakes, melting butter and a lake of maple syrup. The church had a busy weekend Oct. 15-16, with a pancake breakfast fundraiser on Saturday and homecoming festivities Sunday. The fundraiser brought in $127, which will go toward the church’s current project: getting the church steeple cleaned and repainted.
“We are so thankful for each person who participated,” said pastor Kathy Chesney. Homecoming saw a performance of traditional hymns with the Back Row Boys from Norris United Methodist Church. “Their blend of voices filled the sanctuary to the rafters,” said Chesney. Millers Chapel’s next event is a candlelight service on Christmas Eve. All are invited. Info: holston. org/churches
Joshua has always been one of my favorite Biblical heroes. I freely admit that part of my affection for him is founded in the fact that John Derek played Joshua in Cecil B. DeMille’s “The Ten Commandments,” and he was quite a handsome young man! (I also freely admit that was many, many years ago, when I was not yet a teenager.) In the years since, I have seen many torches passed: from generation to generation, the responsibilities, the stories, the dreams, as well as the heartbreaks and failures are handed down and remembered. They become part of who we are. What started me thinking about the passing of torches, I suppose, is the coming election. One of the most impressive aspects of our electoral system is the fact that our votes are cast, counted and recorded, and the outcome is accepted by the populace. The changing of the guard — the handing over of power — happens without warfare, and thankfully, the government goes on. We Americans are blessed to be able to choose our leaders. We all have opinions to which we are entitled, and we get to express our opinion by voting. Part of our covenant as a nation is that we accept the outcome of the election. Whether our candidate is elected or not, when the voting is over, we are still America, and so far at least, the Republic has survived. It behooves us to be involved, to be aware, to think deeply about what is at stake. And it behooves us to remember that we are “one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

The winter of our discomfit My mother found herself just before her 64th birthday with divided loyalties. She had two suffering adult children to care for. Ever the resourceful one, she managed quite well to meet the needs of both. I was stranded at home with chicken pox, but my sister Anna Mae was in far worse shape. Due to her fall at work, she had two broken elbows, her arms in heavy casts from above her wrists almost to her armpits. Her arms were cast at right angles to her body, so for several weeks she looked like she was carrying an invisible load of firewood. Anna Mae had to sit with several pillows on her lap to support the weight of her casted arms. She could do practically nothing – feed herself, open doors, wipe her nose, use the TV remote. She was for all intents and purposes an invalid. My niece Penny and her brother Joe were in school during the weekday, so Penny came every morning to pick up Mother and take her to care for Anna Mae until school ended. Mother told me, “I hate to leave you here by yourself in this shape.” I assured Mother I was fine, that Anna Mae needed her more. Not only was that the truth, but I enjoyed the solitude so I could suffer in peace and silence. While Mother cared for my sister, I bathed myself in calamine lotion. I looked like Ralphie’s dad described him when he wore his bunny suit in the movie “A Christmas Story” – “a pink nightmare.” While I did enjoy my time alone with books and

Ronnie Mincey TEACHER TIME television during the day, I was still enough of a baby at age 27 to enjoy the evenings when Penny returned Mother home to “dote” on me. I developed a pattern. I wore my sweats to keep from scratching, but then I would get hot, so I would “dress down” to cool off. When the overwhelming urge came to scratch, I would “suit up” again. The only visitors I had during this ordeal were my sister Pat and her friend. I wasn’t so ill that I failed to note how pretty the young lady was, but I was indisposed enough to be grateful that I would probably never see her again. By Christmas week I was well enough to get out and about. I was at Anna Mae’s house when her friend Clyde came to visit for the first time since her accident. Clyde was delivering a fine meal he had cooked for the family. Clyde might have had the makings of a physician, for he made an immediate, accurate diagnosis. He looked at Anna Mae as she sat on the couch with her propped, casted arms, uttered an oath and said, “You’re in the @#$% of a shape!” And so she was. Anna Mae slowly recovered and regained the use of her arms, but not without some strain on her nerves. More to come next week.
Fighting cancer with grace Benefit car show for Megan Emehiser is Saturday Thirty-six years old, married, mother of five girls, busy as can be, Gibbs resident Megan Emehiser isn’t one to slow down. But she didn’t feel well, started hurting, got sick whenever she tried to eat or drink anything. She researched her symptoms online and thought she was having a gall bladder attack. She and her husband, Shaun, don’t have health insurance. Costs are too high. But she was hurting to the point she called the University of Tennessee Medical Center to discuss options. They suggested she visit a walk-in clinic. The doctor there told her to go immediately to the emergency room. She got to Parkwest on Aug. 16 and requested an ultrasound. Several hours later, her life changed forever. “The ER doctor said, ‘I think you’re a lot sicker than you know. Your liver is covered in tumors.’ “I sat there, astonished.” Megan has Stage IV colon cancer. It has spread to her liver and is inoperable. She’s also anemic. That night at the hospital, her blood levels were dangerously low.
Jake Mabe
The doctor said, “I’m not sure how you’re able to function, much less take care of five kids.” Megan was admitted immediately, underwent three blood transfusions and was given a bagful of iron. She woke up in a hospital room to find an oncologist waiting, who told Megan she was staying in the hospital for a liver biopsy and immediate treatment. “At that point, I’m still trying to process all of this. I have yet to say, ‘I have cancer.’ But God provided and just keeps making a way.” Megan has gotten assistance paying for cancerfighting drugs and partial help paying for doctors’ services. But the bills are still astronomical, and the family is in need. Longtime friends Jeff and Lisa Ogle have organized a benefit car show and vendor/yard sale for Megan, which will be held 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sat-
The Revvin’ for Megan car show and vendor/yard sale is 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29, at Fairview Baptist Church, 7424 Fairview Road off East Emory Road. Preregistration is $15 before 9 p.m. Friday, Oct. 28. Registration on Oct. 29 is $20 at 8:30 a.m. Judging begins
urday, Oct. 29, at Fairview Baptist Church in Gibbs. “She always puts others first,” Lisa Ogle says, “to the point you’d think she has divided herself for her five girls, her husband and anyone else who needed her.” Megan refuses to complain. “This is part of God’s plan,” she says. “If I can help another person or raise awareness, or if nothing else, I want to let people know that cancer has no respect for gender, age or anything.” She says she can’t thank people enough for what she and her family have been given. “You touch people’s lives that you don’t even know. We moved to Gibbs three years ago. We haven’t been here our whole lives, but people have stepped up to help us.” Megan will undergo chemotherapy treatment every two weeks for at least six months. Her tumor count initially was 23,500. As of last week, it was 3,000 after four treatments. The treatment itself is so aggressive that it causes pain. At first, she could hardly stand, sit or twist, because the pain was radiating from her liver

Sometimes I think it’s an out-of-body experience.” She says she has brief depressive moments sometimes late at night. “But I refuse to stay there. You can’t get down. You can’t get defeated. “We’re praying for a miracle. But, if not, I’ve accepted that.”
