The Shoppers Weekly Papers Centralia / Salem Area

In Memory of

Terry and Rhonda Hatcher O

n May 30, 2016 Centralia and surrounding communities suffered a great loss when Terry and Rhonda Hatcher died in a motorcycle accident on Route 37 north of Kell.

Rhonda Renae Hatcher, age 49, was a marketing consultant at The Shoppers Weekly Papers for over fifteen years, and Terry Dean Hatcher, age 50, was a press operator at Graphic Packaging International for 20-plus years. The loss that the community is suffering during this difficult time is hard to express. The number of lives that this couple has touched is hard to quantify. Not only has The Shoppers Weekly Papers lost an experienced and dedicated marketing professional, and Graphics Packaging a skilled and committed worker, but every individual member of these staffs has lost a close friend and confidant — a member of our own families. One young woman has lost both mother and father in one horrible instant. Others have lost a daughter, a son, a sister, a brother, an aunt, an uncle and more. Countless souls have lost two wonderful friends. The community has lost two dedicated people who were not content to sit back and not be a part of their community. Whether it was Balloon Fest Committee or Halloween Parade Committee or many other community happenings, a Hatcher was always pitching in. Rhonda Hatcher was a rare woman. One in a billion, you might say — someone who always put others first. She was always the type to bravely rush in head first whenever there was a crisis. She was not afraid to stand up for other people, and did so often. If she saw some injustice, she was not shy about confronting it and trying to set it right. Not only a fierce friend, but a fierce mother as well — she adored her daughter Chelsi, and often expressed how much she missed her since she resides in Florida. Both parents were so proud of their daughter, an Air Force veteran. When Chelsi would come home for a visit, Rhonda, especially, would get giddy with the anticipation of seeing and hugging her baby girl again. Everyone who knew Rhonda enjoyed seeing these two together and understood that she was truly the happiest when Chelsi was near. How Rhonda lived and appreciated life can best be observed and remembered when you look at how she adored her elderly parents, both

who are suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. Even though they are both living in extended care homes in a different town, Rhonda traveled to visit them daily to talk to them, to feed them, to make sure they were getting the best care and make sure that they knew every day that they were loved. Every day. They were such an important part of her life that it was impossible not to see if you spent any time around her. After nine, ten or eleven hour days at work, oftentimes spending exhausting days on the road, she still made time to love and appreciate the parents who nurtured her. Rhonda returning to her parents the nurturing love that she received growing up was beautiful to see and beautiful to understand. Terry Hatcher was adored by his wife and daughter and was one of those guys who was easy to befriend. Always ready with a quick wit or a word of wisdom, Terry never hesitated to help you out if you needed it. If you needed to borrow a mower, needed something hauled or needed a tree trimmed, Terry was there to help you out. This hard-working U.S. Navy veteran will be missed by countless people whose paths he’s crossed. Rhonda and Terry both loved their pet dogs, all four of them! She had a soft spot in her heart for all dogs and this showed most when she’d go to great lengths to rescue abandoned dogs and foster them while she tried to find homes for them. Not one to turn her back on these helpless furry friends, she thought that every one of them deserved a good home where they would be loved. Rhonda and Terry both loved to ride motorcycles. When her health allowed, it wasn’t uncommon to see her roaring up to the The Shoppers Weekly office on a Saturday on a Harley in full leathers. On days when she was “stuck in the office” she’d look up from her desk longingly when the familiar rumble of a motorcycle faded into the distance. It didn’t help that there was a huge picture window right in front of her desk on those beautiful spring days when people started getting their bikes out. “Wind Therapy” she called it. While it is hard to express the enormous empty space left behind by these two, those of us who are left behind can take a little comfort in knowing that these two people were in our lives and every one of us are better off for it. Even though they were taken away from us too early, we will smile when we remember the good times we had together and maybe, try to live our own lives a little closer to the example that these two have set.

ELMWOOD CEMETERY PRESERVATION COMMISSION TO HOST GUEST SPEAKER Donna Cobb, Archaeologist with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources will be the guest speaker at this m o n t h’s E l m w o o d Cemetery Preservation Commission Meeting on June 9 at 10:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of Centralia City Hall. Her program will be entitled Preserving Historic Illinois Cemeteries – Problems and Solutions.

The Shoppers Weekly Papers Centralia / Salem Area

Cemeteries are important reminders of our past and provide to us a sense of who we are. More importantly, cemeteries represent a physical legacy for future generations and they must be preserved as a historical resource. In all aspects of cemetery training it is important to be aware of what techniques to use and what techniques to avoid. She will discuss commonly-used but inappropriate and damaging

techniques including setting stones in concrete, repairing broken markers with concrete instead of correct adhesive, and using adhesives, cleaning solutions and techniques that will further damage the marker. This lecture also shows the correct way to lift, clean, repair and reset grave markers to ensure their continued preservation for future generations. After the presentation the Commission will meet

The Trump-Sanders Two-Step The upshot of the Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump phenomena is that both parties are moving to the left. Sandersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and Trumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s styles and effects are very different â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the rumpled, oddball lecturer in Socialism 101 vs. the boastful, power-tie-wearing business mogul â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but they have worked in tandem to ensure that the center of gravity in this fallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presidential election will be further to the left than it has been in decades. By seizing the initiative in their race from the beginning to what looks like an increasingly bitter end, Bernie Sanders has made Hillary Clinton, the cautious inheritor of a family political legacy built on centrism, into the mouthpiece of a watered-down version of his left-wing populism. No matter how much Bernie Sanders hates the banks, Hillary Clinton despises them just as much (past paydays notwithstanding). In effect, Sanders and Trump have executed a squeeze play on the M a d a m S e c r e t a r y.

Rhonda Hatcher, who died Memorial Day evening along with her husband, our dear friend Terry Hatcher, in a motorcycle accident. Our entire staff is trying to cope with this huge loss, along with Rhonda's and Terry's

families, especially their daughter Chelsi as well as the surrounding communities. Please keep all in your prayers. Our regular Politically Speaking column will return next week.

Sanders pushed her to the left on trade and Social Security in the primary, when she disavowed the Trans-Pacific Partnership that she helped negotiate and embraced increasing Social Security benefits. She probably wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be snapping back to the center on those issues in a general election because it would open her up to Sanders-like attacks from Donald Trump. If the grass-roots movement that Sanders has built will pressure Democrats all the way to the Philadelphia convention and beyond, Trump has arguably done more to pull the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s politics portside. He has, for now, managed to do what the Democrats and the media have been attempting for most of the Obama era: to kill off the tea party as a national force. By dividing it, eclipsing it and making its animating concerns of limited government and constitutionalism into afterthoughts, Trump has neutered a heretofore potent vehicle against Big Government. With or without Sanders, the Democrats were going to drift in a more progressive direction. It was far from inevitable, though, that the Republican Party would de-emphasize its opposition to growth in the size of government. That is entirely the doing of Trump.

The irony is that an era of Republican politics characterized by insistence on doctrinal purity and anger at Beltway dealmaking is ending with Trump at the helm of the GOP. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little like the agitation of the French Revolution, all aimed at achieving more liberte, egalite, fraternite, concluding in the rule of Napoleon Bonaparte. However ideologically indistinct Trump was during the primaries, he has gotten fuzzier since becoming the presumptive nominee. The lazy line on Donald Trump is that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a farright populist. Not at all. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a centrist populist. The key to moving the GOP to the center wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t high-minded scolding about its tone and unreasonableness, as Jon Huntsman, John Kasich and Jeb Bush all attempted, but an extremely combative tone and a few signature unreasonable positions. Once Trump established his reputation as a bomb-thrower, it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter that he was to the left of everyone else in the field. B e t we e n S and e rs moving Clinton further from the center and Trump moving the GOP toward it, the socialist and the mogul have forced American politics to take a collective step to the left.

EAGLE LIFE

Ministries by: Cliff Sanders

Fan into Flame Astronomers refer to stars that have burned out and now wander in space, forever cold, darkened, and alone as wandering stars. Jesus warned a church that once burned brightly, the church of Laodicea, “I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth . . . So be earnest and repent!” (Revelation 3:14-22) Paul instructed young Timothy, “For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.” (II Timothy 1:6-8) It is vital to keep the fire of God blazing within you. Left unattended, a fire will go out. What is your spiritual state? Don’t be like a wandering star, fan God’s fire into a burning blaze. GOD IS A CONSUM-

The Shoppers Weekly Papers Centralia / Salem Area

ING FIRE! “Therefore, let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire.” (Hebrews 12:28-29) Moses encountered God at the burning bush. The bush burned with fire, but was not consumed. God told Moses to take his shoes off, for he was standing on holy ground. (Exodus 3:5) Jesus rebuked the Laodicea church for they said, “I am rich and have become wealthy and have need of nothing.” (Revelation 3:1718) They didn’t know they were “miserable, poor, blind, and naked.” Worldliness puts out the fire of God. Jesus gave the remedy – obtain “gold refined in the fire . . . and white garments of righteousness.” The fires of testing and adversity purify and fan the flame of God’s fire within us. GOD IS A CONSECRATING FIRE. Timothy was called and consecrated

to be an elder by “the laying on of hands” of the apostle Paul. (II Timothy 1:7) Every believer is called and consecrated to be a servant of God. Don’t let God’s gifting lie dormant. Fan it into flame by being obedient to the Holy Spirit. “And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.” (Acts 5:30-32) GOD IS A CAPABLE FIRE. Young Timothy didn’t think he had the capacity to fulfill God’s call. But the fire of God empowers and makes one capable. “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline.” (II Timothy 1:7) Recently this post was on Facebook, “God can take the seemingly impossible and make it possible – keep praying.” GOD IS A COMMUNING FIRE. The psalmist made this revealing statement, “My heart was hot within me, while I was musing, the fire burned. Then I spoke with my tongue.” (Psalm 39:3) As we meditate on God’s Word and commune with Him in prayer, the fire of God is

fanned into flame. Jesus revealed His heart to a lukewarm church. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hears my voice and opens unto Me, I will come into him and sup with him and he with Me.” (Revelation 3:20) Always talk to God before you start your day. GOD IS A “CRAZED FIRE”. He is crazy in love, fervent, wild, and zealous for His creation. The fire of the Holy Spirit will give you passion to witness His love to a lost world. (Acts 1:8) “So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord . . . but join me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God.” (II Timothy 1:6-8) The other day I took two of my grandchildren fishing; five-year-old Emily Joy caught two largemouth bass. As she held up her stringer of fish for me to take a picture, she said, “Those fish were aggressive!” Let’s be fervent and aggressive for the things of God. “Fan into flame the gift which is within you.” (II Timothy 1:6) Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com

DEAR P AW ’ S CORNER: I read your column about the owner whose therapy dog helps children with a fear of dogs. I also have a Golden Retriever therapy dog, and we have had many success stories. Please tell your readers that organizations have different requirements for therapy dogs to visit their facilities, as well as for the handlers. For example, the hospitals we visit have additional health screening requirements for the handler. If they’re looking for a good certification for their dog, Therapy Dogs International is a highly accepted certification. — Ed A., Indiana

Centralia Animal Shelter’s

Pets In Need 1. These are two male kittens. 2. This is a very friendly, female cat. 3. These are some of the many kittens available. 4. Romeo, is a neutered male dog, mixed breed, and up to date on shots. He is NOT at Animal Control. If interested call 618-6048895.

More Resources for Therapy Dogs

DEAR ED: Many thanks for the tips! It’s definitely important to do your homework and learn as much as you can before submitting your dog and yourself as a therapy dog and handler. Different facilities may need additional clearances — not just a certification from a therapydog organization, but health checks for the owner / handler and background checks. Therapy Dogs International has details on its website about its requirements for therapy dogs, and guidelines and testing information that will give owners a good idea of what they need to do to get their dog ready. For example, dogs have to be at least 1 year old. They don’t have to take any specific therapy-dog classes, but they should have at the very least basic to intermediate obedience skills, a good temperament and up-todate vaccinations and

He is friendly but is heartworm positive. 4. This is an adult, neutered male. He is friendly and loves attention. Residents of the City of Centralia who own a dog or cat are required to purchase a city tag for each animal. They can be purchased at City Hall. Failure to purchase this tag can result in a $150.00 fine. If you are interested in a Pet of the Week, or any animal, call 5337647 or visit the Centralia Animal Shelter. Directions to the shelter are as follows: Turn south at the intersection of Hwy. 161 E. (McCord) and Airport Rd. Go 1-1/2 miles, then turn left on Copple Rd.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Lots of possibilities begin to open up by midweek. Some seem more appealing than others. But wait for more facts to emerge later on before you consider which to choose. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Bravo to the determined Bovine. While others might give up, you continue to search for answers. Expect your Taurean tenacity to begin paying off by week’s end. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might want to consider stepping back from the task at hand for a while. This could help you get a better perspective on what you’ve done and what still needs to be done. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your keen Cancerian insight should help you determine whether a new offer is solid or just more fluff ‘n’ stuff. The clues are all there, waiting for you to find them. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Being ignored is difficult for any proud Leo or Leona. But pushing yourself back into the spotlight might be unwise. Instead, let things work themselves out at their own pace. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Trying to uncover a colleague’s secret under the pretext of showing concern is ill-advised. Control your curiosity in order to avoid raising resentment in the workplace. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Expect to hear good news about a loved one. Also, be pre-

Q: I am curious about what you think future collectibles will be. — Sam, Lexington, Kentucky A: Early computers, vintage video games and toys from the 1990s are on my list of future collectibles. Always collectible are political items from national campaigns. VCR movies are presently selling at many thrift stores for about a dollar each. Some titles will certainly increase in value during the next decade or so. Movie posters are a good bet, especially for big hits such as Academy Award winners. "Spotlight," this year's Picture of the Year, has already increased in value, from about $5 for the one-sheet just a few months ago to its present price of $30. Kitchen gadgets from the 1970s are becoming popular. As that interest increases, so will the prices. *** Q: I have a number of

pared for some changes in several family relationships that could develop from this lucky turn of events. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Some surprises are expected to accompany a number of changes that will continue through part of next week. At least one could involve a romantic situation. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) You might be upset by some of your critics. But most of your associates continue to have faith in your ability to get the job done, and done well. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A workplace goal that suddenly seems out of reach is no problem for the sure-footed Goat, who moves steadily forward despite any obstacles placed in his or her way. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Uncertainty about who is right and who isn’t might keep you from making a clear-cut decision. Wait until you know more about what you’re being asked to decide. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Be careful to keep your emotions in check when dealing with a demanding personal situation. You need to set an example of strength for others to follow. BORN THIS WEEK: You have an extraordinary ability to rally people to do their best. You would be a treasure as a teacher. © 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

books, and I would like to know their current values. Many are first editions, and almost all are from the 1920s and '30s. I live in a rural area where there are no book dealers who can help me. — Maryanne, Ward, Colorado A: One of the better websites is www.abe.com. Go to that site, and type in both the author and title. Pay close attention to editions, since usually dozens will appear listed. Keep in mind that condition is extremely important. Sometimes more than half of the value hinges on the cover being present and intact. *** Q: My grandma gave me a Bakelite radio recently: a Philco, Model 49-501. It is called the "Boomerang" because of its style. — Ken, Austin, Texas A: Go give your grandmother a big hug. Your radio was manufactured in 1949 and is worth about $500, according to the "Radio and Television Price

Guide" edited by Kyle Husfloen and published by Krause Books. *** Q: I am searching for a stamp price guide so I can determine the value of several that I have. For example, I have three baseball-related stamps. — David, Moravia, New York A: There are several excellent stamp price guides available. One of the better basic ones is "Warman's U.S. Stamps Field Guide" by Maurice Wozniak (Krause Books). There are copies available at amazon. com. *** Write to Larry Cox in care of KFWS, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@ aol.com.
