Upgrades for fire dept. outlined Committee learns of equipment cost By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT
JUDE KAIDER Hi-Liter
This weather is for the birds
Area residents, birds included, awoke Saturday morning in a late-autumn shock finding trees, streets, and driveways buried under a heavy snow which continued through late afternoon. The first blizzard of the season, which began Friday evening, stormed through the Midwest and, though it was predicted, was, nonetheless, for the birds. Area snow totals measured 12 inches, more in many areas, according to the National Weather Service. The area averages 1.5 inches of snow in November. After the snow subsided, the next test was already at hand as temperatures fell into single digits Saturday night.
Antioch Fire Department Deputy Chief John Cokefair laid out some of the department’s priorities to members of the Joint Fire Committee during a Nov. 16 meeting. The department currently uses seven life packs that are 15 years old. In a later telephone interview, Fire Chief Jon Nixon explained, “When we had to move into the EMS business a few years ago, we purchased used equipment. That equipment is now 15 years old. We have a service agreement with the vendor who has informed us that after next year, no parts will be available if any break down.” Each of the four ambulances carries one as well and the three fire engines that have advanced life support equipment. The life packs are necessary to treat heart attack victims and, Nixon said, the new ones have important features. The new life packs can detect issues and give diagnosis information sooner and transmit that informa-
847-395-6216
tion to the emergency room to enable appropriate preparation to treat the patient in a timely and proper manner. Each life pack costs between $35,000 and $40,000. There are seven key lakes in the Antioch fire protection area, and according to Nixon, “This area is the busiest in Northwestern Lake County.” “In the past,” he said, “we had a dive team with 12 members, but lost most of those some years ago.” “Recently,” Nixon continued, “we began expanding our membership and since our team has been so small for so long, any equipment we have can’t be used.” The department needs to buy 10 dive suits and equipment at a cost of about $6,000 each for a total expenditure of $60,000. That cost includes regulators, face pieces, breathing tanks and suits. Nixon said the presence of the Joint Fire Committee makes communication better. “I’m not going between boards to give the informa-

Group wants school nurses trained to reverse overdoses State law clears the way for Naxolone use
JUDE KAIDER Hi-Liter
This weather is for the birds
Area residents, birds included, awoke Saturday morning in a late-autumn shock finding trees, streets, and driveways buried under a heavy snow which continued through late afternoon. The first blizzard of the season, which began Friday evening, stormed through the Midwest and, though it was predicted, was, nonetheless, for the birds. Area snow totals measured 12 inches, more in many areas, according to the National Weather Service. The area averages 1.5 inches of snow in November. After the snow subsided, the next test was already at hand as temperatures fell into single digits Saturday night.
The Lake County Opioid Initiative has recommended that all area high schools and middle schools begin training school nurses to administer opiate-reversing drugs to students in the event of an overdose. In late August, the Heroin Crisis Act/House Bill 0001 became law in the state of Illinois. This law includes a provision allowing school nurses to implement overdose prevention response programs at any school in Illinois. Nurses can now be trained to administer naloxone to any student experiencing an overdose without any legal barriers. Naloxone is an antidote to opioid overdose that is administered through injection or nasal spray. “The Lake County Opioid Initiative’s policy committee has helped pass a bill that provides immunity for nurses within schools to have the ability to administer naloxone,” said Mike Nerheim, Lake County State’s Attorney and co-founder of the initiative. “We are in the midst of an opiate prescription pain medication and heroin epidemic, and the unfortunate re-
847-395-6216
ality is that these deadly drugs exist in our schools. Ensuring that the antidote is present in school settings is a common-sense response.” The Lake County Opioid Initiative includes the membership of organizations such as Live4Lali and the Lake County Health Department, which are state-approved overdose prevention training entities. According to the Opioid Initiative, there is not a community that has been immune from opioid use disorder and overdose. The Opioid Initiative is committed to ensuring that all youth receive immediate care for any health issue. Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire is the first high school in Lake County to have its nursing staff trained in naloxone administration. Live4Lali trained the school nurses on Nov. 10. Each nurse in both buildings received the auto-injectable version of the drug. “Stevenson believes in taking a proactive approach to

Hunters must register deer shot in the area County is in the state’s CWD zone
JUDE KAIDER Hi-Liter
This weather is for the birds
Area residents, birds included, awoke Saturday morning in a late-autumn shock finding trees, streets, and driveways buried under a heavy snow which continued through late afternoon. The first blizzard of the season, which began Friday evening, stormed through the Midwest and, though it was predicted, was, nonetheless, for the birds. Area snow totals measured 12 inches, more in many areas, according to the National Weather Service. The area averages 1.5 inches of snow in November. After the snow subsided, the next test was already at hand as temperatures fell into single digits Saturday night.
Because McHenry County is among the counties in Northern Illinois where chronic wasting disease has been verified in the deer herd, local hunters are required to register the deer they kill. Registration stations are open between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Biologists will be present to take CWD samples for testing at the time of registration. Testing is voluntary, but all hunters with adult deer are encouraged to participate. In McHenry County, hunters may register their deer at Moraine Hills State Park McHenry Dam Day Use Area, east of McHenry on River Road, 2.2 miles south of Highway 120. Firearm deer hunters took to the field in Illinois for the start of the state’s regular firearm deer season on Nov. 20, and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources is encouraging hunters to keep safety at the top of their priority lists as they prepare for the season. The seven-day firearm deer season in Illinois this year will conclude on Thursday through Sunday, Dec. 3 to 6. “The firearm deer hunt is a tradition shared by genera-
847-395-6216
tions of Illinoisans and visitors to our state, and the seven-day season is our busiest hunting season of the year,” said IDNR Director Wayne Rosenthal. “The best way to enjoy time afield during deer season, and anytime in the outdoors in Illinois, is to be aware, be alert and be safe.” In 2014, there were 20 hunting incidents, two of which resulted in fatalities, reported in all hunting seasons in Illinois. Among the hunting incidents reported last year, 10 involved tree stand falls. The IDNR Division of Safety Education reminds hunters using tree stands to use a Fall Arrest System (FAS) safety harness. Safety educators and IDNR Conservation Police also remind everyone hunting with a firearm to: • Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, and never assume a firearm is unloaded • Always point a firearm in a safe direction • Be sure of the target, and make sure there are no other hunters, homes, buildings, vehicles or other animals beyond the target • Keep their finger out of

Obregon pleads not guilty HI-LITER • WEDNESDAY, NOV. 25, 2015 • 5
He waives his right preliminary hearing By Jason Arndt STAFF WRITER
Andrew Obregon, accused of 32 charges, including first-degree intentional homicide, waived his right to a preliminary hearing Friday in Kenosha County Intake Court. The 32-year-old, who allegedly went on a 22-day crime spree, including multiple vehicle thefts, pleaded not guilty to all charges and was bound over for trial by Court Commissioner Jon Mason. At his initial bond hearing Nov. 4, Obregon allegedly confessed to 30 of the 32 charges in the 29-page criminal complaint. The two charges he did not confess to are attempted first-degree intentional homicide in the murder of Tywon Anderson and attempted kidnapping, stemming from an Oct. 13 car-jacking incident in Brighton. “You do understand…that if you waive the preliminary hearing, you can’t come back into this courtroom?” Mason asked Obregon. If convicted on all charges, Obregon would face a maximum of life imprisonment plus 439 years. “He is aware of all those charges and the maximum penalties associated with those charges,” said Kristyne
Watson, Obregon’s court-appointed public defender. Obregon’s spree allegedly began Sept. 21, when Obregon’s purported drug dealer, Anderson, was reported missing by Anderson’s sister, Tahitha. Five days later, authorities discovered Anderson’s remains in the 14400 block of County Road A in the town of Paris. Following discovery, Obregon allegedly eluded Kenosha County and Racine County authorities on five occasions leading up to his capture in Illinois Oct. 13. From Sept. 26-Oct. 13, he allegedly stole up to seven vehicles, burglarized Countryside Mini Market in Bristol and committed an armed robbery of Speedway gas station on Highway 50 and Interstate 94 in Pleasant Prairie, according to the criminal complaint. Two vehicle thefts allegedly were from Oct. 2-6 at GT Motorsports in Racine, where he was an employee seven years ago. O b r e g o n was formally charged on both counts in Racine County Circuit Court Wednesday. Obregon’s last vehicle theft occurred at a Brighton residence, where he is accused of beating a woman, necessitating Flight For Life helicopter transport to
Froedtert Hospital in Wauwatosa. After Obregon allegedly stole her vehicle, K e n o s h a County authorities pursued Obregon south into Illinois, where Lake County authorities took over. In Lake County, Obregon fled east towards Zion, and was apprehended when OnStar – at police request – disabled the vehicle. After a one-mile foot pursuit, he was apprehended by a Zion police officer. Obregon had nine charges filed against him in Lake County Circuit before he was extradited to Kenosha County Nov. 3. Prior to Friday’s hearing, the Kenosha County District Attorney’s Office and Obregon’s defense discussed the release of all vehicles. “The defendant has no objections to the release of vehicles described in the complaint to victims,” Deputy District Attorney Michael Graveley told Mason. Obregon is due for a Jan. 21 pre-trial hearing in Kenosha County Circuit Court. The news that Obregon remains in custody comes as a relief for Quantisha Etinne, of Racine. Etinne, 32, is the mother of Tywon Anderson’s 10-year-old daughter Shamya Anderson.
County launches diabetes initiative In observance of National Diabetes Awareness Month in November, the Lake County Health Department-Community Health Center is emphasizing the importance of screening and healthy living. The Health Department encourages residents to take the free prediabetes screening test at: www.prediabetesrisk.com, as a first step toward determining risk for developing Type 2 diabetes. The prediabetes screening test takes less than one minute to complete. Those who score a five or higher are at increased risk for having Type 2 diabetes. They should talk with their doctor to see if additional testing is needed, according to health officials. A person with prediabetes has a blood sugar level higher than normal, but not high enough for a diagnosis of diabetes. Catching prediabetes early can help prevent diabetes, which can cause serious health complications, including heart disease, blindness, kidney failure and lower-extremity amputations. Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States.
Certain risk factors for developing diabetes exist, such as age, family history, and ethnic background. African Americans, Hispanics, American Indians, Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders are at higher risk of developing diabetes. “The good news is that people can manage their risk for Type 2 diabetes. Small steps make a big difference and can help people live a longer, healthier life,” said Tony Beltran, the Health Department’s executive director. Steps to prevent or delay diabetes include:
• Take the prediabetes screening rest. • See a doctor if the test shows you are at risk. • Ask your doctor to refer you to a Diabetes Prevention Program, if you are at risk. • Get to and stay at a healthy weight. • Stay physically active at least three times a week. Even walking can make a difference. Those without health care providers can make an appointment through the Health Department’s Community Health Center system by calling (847) 3778800.
The mother told reporters after the proceeding that Shamya is grieving through the loss of Tywon.
“Her and her dad were Etinne said she plans to really close. She loved her seek counseling for Shamya dad,” Etinne said. “She to ease the grieving process. writes songs about her dad.” OPEN to the PUBLIC No Membership OPEN to the PUBLICFee

St. Stephen Lutheran Church will host the annual Antioch Community Thanksgiving Service on Wednesday evening.

Obregon pleads not guilty HI-LITER • WEDNESDAY, NOV. 25, 2015 • 5
He waives his right preliminary hearing By Jason Arndt STAFF WRITER
Andrew Obregon, accused of 32 charges, including first-degree intentional homicide, waived his right to a preliminary hearing Friday in Kenosha County Intake Court. The 32-year-old, who allegedly went on a 22-day crime spree, including multiple vehicle thefts, pleaded not guilty to all charges and was bound over for trial by Court Commissioner Jon Mason. At his initial bond hearing Nov. 4, Obregon allegedly confessed to 30 of the 32 charges in the 29-page criminal complaint. The two charges he did not confess to are attempted first-degree intentional homicide in the murder of Tywon Anderson and attempted kidnapping, stemming from an Oct. 13 car-jacking incident in Brighton. “You do understand…that if you waive the preliminary hearing, you can’t come back into this courtroom?” Mason asked Obregon. If convicted on all charges, Obregon would face a maximum of life imprisonment plus 439 years. “He is aware of all those charges and the maximum penalties associated with those charges,” said Kristyne
Watson, Obregon’s court-appointed public defender. Obregon’s spree allegedly began Sept. 21, when Obregon’s purported drug dealer, Anderson, was reported missing by Anderson’s sister, Tahitha. Five days later, authorities discovered Anderson’s remains in the 14400 block of County Road A in the town of Paris. Following discovery, Obregon allegedly eluded Kenosha County and Racine County authorities on five occasions leading up to his capture in Illinois Oct. 13. From Sept. 26-Oct. 13, he allegedly stole up to seven vehicles, burglarized Countryside Mini Market in Bristol and committed an armed robbery of Speedway gas station on Highway 50 and Interstate 94 in Pleasant Prairie, according to the criminal complaint. Two vehicle thefts allegedly were from Oct. 2-6 at GT Motorsports in Racine, where he was an employee seven years ago. O b r e g o n was formally charged on both counts in Racine County Circuit Court Wednesday. Obregon’s last vehicle theft occurred at a Brighton residence, where he is accused of beating a woman, necessitating Flight For Life helicopter transport to

Froedtert Hospital in Wauwatosa. After Obregon allegedly stole her vehicle, K e n o s h a County authorities pursued Obregon south into Illinois, where Lake County authorities took over. In Lake County, Obregon fled east towards Zion, and was apprehended when OnStar – at police request – disabled the vehicle. After a one-mile foot pursuit, he was apprehended by a Zion police officer. Obregon had nine charges filed against him in Lake County Circuit before he was extradited to Kenosha County Nov. 3. Prior to Friday’s hearing, the Kenosha County District Attorney’s Office and Obregon’s defense discussed the release of all vehicles. “The defendant has no objections to the release of vehicles described in the complaint to victims,” Deputy District Attorney Michael Graveley told Mason. Obregon is due for a Jan. 21 pre-trial hearing in Kenosha County Circuit Court. The news that Obregon remains in custody comes as a relief for Quantisha Etinne, of Racine. Etinne, 32, is the mother of Tywon Anderson’s 10-year-old daughter Shamya Anderson.

• School nurses (Continued from front page) the health of all of our students,” said Dr. Cristina Cortesi, Substance Abuse Prevention Coordinator, Adlai E. Stevenson High School. “Though we hope never to have the need for naloxone in our building, we acknowledge that overdose is a reality for young adults in our surrounding communities. We want to take every step to be appropriately prepared.” The Lake County Opioid Initiative’s mission is to develop, implement, evaluate and sustain a multi-strategy countywide effort to prevent opioid abuse, addiction, overdose and death. The first naloxone program was originally implemented with cooperation of the Opioid Initiative’s law enforcement committee. To date, 40 lives have been saved across Lake County due to the training of police officers in the administration of naloxone.
Officials said they hope the presence of trained nurses in the administration of naloxone will have the same lifesaving effect among students. “Lake County has seen deaths from opioid overdose to citizens as young as age 12. If a school nurse can administer epinephrine for students suffering from allergic reactions or insulin for students with diabetes, they should be able to respond in the event of an accidental opioid poisoning,” said Chelsea Laliberte, Executive Director of Live4Lali and Cofounder of the Opioid Initiative. “There are students with chronic pain issues who require prescription opiate pain relief medications just as there are recreational opioid users among student bodies. Every life is worth saving.” To learn more and sign up for training, contact Terri Bartlett at terri@live4lali.org or (844) LV4-LALI, ext. 805.

Sheriff launches probe of bookkeeper She is also focus of investigation at Wheatland School
By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT
The Kenosha County Sheriff Department has begun an investigation into the Salem Grade School’s theft complaint against former bookkeeper Mary Anderson. “They are gathering information at this time,” District Administrator Dave Milz said of the Sheriff’s Office. The district asked the sheriff to launch the investigation Oct. 23. A forensic audit conducted on behalf of the district over the summer alleges that Anderson paid herself more than $17,000 in unsupported overtime over the past five years along with more than $1,000 in other funds missing. The auditors discovered that Anderson’s claims for overtime hours were higher than the average and they discovered that Anderson’s overtime occurred or was higher in weeks when she had days off for illness, vacation or training time. She also paid $19,500 penalty to the IRS for not meeting certain federal reporting requirements, the audit contends. The audit was done to see if the missing amounts could be recovered under the district’s insurance policy and Milz said
Marty McGinley contacted the Sheriff’s Department, investigators were unable to give a timeline because of the volume of cases. Wheatland filed a complaint with the Sheriff’s Office on May 22. McGinley explained in detail that, “Wheatland contends that Mrs. Anderson fraudulently absconded with $11,607.05 through improper payroll payments, fraudulent reimbursements, cash deposits, and misuse of the district procurement card.” “To this point,” McGinley continued, “there have been additional fees associated with the fraud for auditing and consultation with an attorney of approximately $8,000.” McGinley said he did have help from an auditor, but originally found some obvious inconsistencies on the procurement card statement when going through normal checks and balances. “Then I found that she had forged my signature on some previous reports,” he contends. “It all unraveled from that point, and took several weeks to get to the final figure. The Wheatland still waiting The last time Wheatland insurance company will cover Center District Administrator a portion of the loss.” he’s confident that it can. Milz explained that it appeared to him that even a few years prior, to current business manager Susan Jarvis, Anderson requested raises in pay. Some of her requests were not honored. Milz said it appeared to him that Anderson was looking for career advancement and when the opportunity came up to be a shared bookkeeper for Randal and Wheatland grade schools, she applied. But after Anderson left, Milz said, “things weren’t adding up” and that triggered the forensic audit. Even though Milz said he is confident the missing money will be replaced under the insurance policy, the board is concerned that these are public funds. “The board did have option not to move forward but without hesitation wanted to move forward,” Milz said. Anderson’s son-in-law, Nick Pauloni, who sits on the board as treasurer, did not take part in the board discussion of how to handle the issue of involving the Sheriff’s Department.

Sheriff urges residents to update contacts
Prompted by the recent manhunt for Andrew Obregon and impending winter weather, the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department last week urged residents to keep an updated emergency contacts list. Sheriff’s officials stated communication is essential in times of emergencies. “Sheriff (David) Beth encourages Kenosha County residents to have an up-todate contact list for those you may need to reach during a disaster or emergency and es-
tablishing alternate methods of communication in case traditional means are not available,” a news release issued by the department said. In event of voice service disruptions, the release suggested text messaging, noting it takes less bandwidth to deliver. “Also, calling long distance may be easier than making a local call,” the release said. “Ask a friend or family member to be your out of town contact.” To subscribe to free alerts
from the county, visit the Kenosha County website, click on Sheriff, and then Emergency Management. On that link, go to AlertSense.Com to sign up. Through these messages, residents receive a short notices about potential dangers and hazards. Emergency messages are delivered directly to cell phones. For more information, go to Kenosha County Emergency Management, or the ReadyWisconsin website at readywisconsin.wi.gov.

The time is now to help
Mother struggles after son steals from her Dear W.C., I have a widowed lady friend that is having a very difficult time. She would never ask for help herself. She is a lovely woman and always helping others. Now she needs help. Her son recently came back to town. He has caused much heartbreak for my friend over the years. He was involved in some very bad situations and has stolen from her in the past. My lady friend tried to tell him he was not welcome at her apartment. She lives in a senior citizen low-income housing complex. He did not listen to her and just showed up at her door anyway. Being the good loving mother and trusting person that she is, she let him in. She did not realize he had forged one of her checks and stolen cash out of her purse until a few days later. He even took her wedding ring she had sitting on top of her dresser and most likely pawned it. My lady friend is so hurt by his betrayal again. She called the police but her son is nowhere to be found. She is so worried over not being able to pay her rent or utilities. I am a senior citizen that lives in the same apartment complex as this lovely woman. I too live on a very tight budget so I am not able to help her. We read your article in the newspaper each week and this had me thinking that maybe The Time is Now could help.
By
SAL DIMICELI Columnist
I handed her some tissues and asked a few questions about the sons past. He had indeed been in and out of trouble most his life. The friend had not exaggerated about the extent of the sons dishonest and abusive past. After a long conversation that I knew was very painful for the woman to reiterate I asked about her present financial state. The woman showed me her check book and her bank statement showing the check that had cleared. It was not a large check by most people’s standards but for a senior woman living very frugally on social security it may as well have been a million dollars. It was lost money she just could not get back or every recover from. Her son was long gone without a trace so the odds of finding him and the money and ring he had stolen over six weeks past were not likely to happen. This lovely senior woman’s only hope would be The Time Is Now to Help. How could we not ease her fears of losing her senior apartment and having her utilities disconnected? We would help this woman pay her overdue rent and utilities. We would also provide her some additional food and toiletries as she had been cutting back on these things to try and save enough for her bills. The entire time we had been having our conversation the senior gentleman had been sitting quietly watching everything. When he saw his lady friend smile when I showed her where we would be there to help, I saw him smile for the first time since we met. He said, “Excuse me but I have to say this is just like reading one of your newspaper
columns. I can’t believe I am witnessing your good works with my own eyes and ears.” I answered him, “This is all thanks to you too. We know this woman here would not have asked for help herself. She is lucky to have such a good friend as you to know what she needs.” I saw them both look at each other with a mutual admiration. I noticed how occasionally they had held hands and caught each other’s eye. I said to the gentleman, “So are you going to ask this lovely lady here out on a date?” They both looked surprised as the gentleman answered, “I would love to take her out for coffee if she would let me.” I looked at the woman and said, “I think you at least owe this handsome man here a cup of coffee.” We all laughed at that. Several weeks later I paid a visit to the senior woman’s apartment again. I was not surprised to find the senior gentleman there as well. They both greeted me with a hug. The senior woman told me how much better she was now feeling and how she had put aside her grief over her son and his betrayal. She said, “I will never let him back in my life again unless I am sure he has changed. It could be years and I hope I live to see the day but it is in God’s hands now. Thanks to The Time Is Now to Help and all the good people that support the work you do, my life has completely changed. Not only is my financial stress gone but you also showed me how to let the other stresses go too. I can’t control my son’s poor choices or my daughter’s health but I can pray for them. That I can do. Thank you for showing me that.” We all hugged again and
after a final review of her budget we were able to say our goodbyes with much happier hearts than the first time we met. The suffering and pain that are removed due to you is monumental in our work. God Bless you for your support of our mission and all our good works we accomplish together.

showed me inside. He knocked on the door of his lady friend’s apartment. It was opened in a few moments by a senior woman. I noticed how her face lit up when she saw her friend there, but she looked confused when she saw me as well. After being introduced she said, “I know who you are. I read about the people you help in the newspaper. How come you are here?” I said to her, “Well, you have a very good friend here that is worried about you. He wrote me a letter in your behalf. Would you like to talk about what he wrote in the letter?” The woman looked embarrassed and turned her face away. In a moment she said, “How can I talk about something so embarrassing to you, a stranger?” I told her, “People tell me I’m easy to talk to.” She smiled at my attempt to make an uncomfortable situation a little easier. The senior woman led me and her friend to the small table in the efficiency apartment. I looked at the older furniture. I could tell she took good care of her belongings. There were a few family photos. I asked her about the photos and she told me the story behind Dear readers, each one. There was a photo Seniors citizens are often of her husband that had the target of abuse and fraud. died over ten years ago.

Slices of life
Tucking in for a lifetime By
JILL PERTLER Columnist
I asked a friend about this recently. Did she take the everyday for granted, too? Without hesitation she gave a knowing nod and I felt some sense of relief, I guess, at not being the only one. She didn’t have to say a word. Her nod and expression could have filled pages. They were the actions of someone who toiled for years at parenting only to discover that once the job starts to get a little easier your duties are outsourced and your skills no longer needed. At least not on a daily (or hourly) basis. It is bittersweet, their continually increasing independence – that they are growing up and away. I thought I’d forever be buying clothing from the children’s section. That toys would always be a part of Christmas. That chocolate milk would always be a mainstay in our fridge and sippy cups would forever prevail. All things change. I should be celebrating. Some days I do. Other days, I see Barney or Big Bird on TV and remember when we used to watch and those sing-songy melodies got
Helping hands for the needy
Junior Miss Antioch, Aliya Rhodes, 13, double-checks basket contents during the Antioch, Ill., Lions Thanksgiving food basket event at the Piggly Wiggly, 460 Orchard St., in Antioch on Nov. 21. The store again served as the base of operations in what has become an Antioch tradition with the Lions Club donating all of the food as well as making the deliveries the following day. Rhodes was among the more than 25 volunteers who filled a total of 76 large baskets containing bread, canned goods, eggs, and fresh fruit and vegetables, among other items with destinations for next-day deliveries being needy families throughout the village and Antioch Township. The Lions and Piggly Wiggly will reprise the effort for Christmas.

I went years without sleep and know the realities of deprivation. Still, I look forward to next weekend when they will all be home and we will share a meal
at the kitchen table, watch some football and stay up too late talking and laughing. I am glad they want to come home at all. I’m sure there are people and places and parties much more interesting than good old mom and dad. But at least for now, they return home. Maybe because they know we want them to.

Maybe because they want to themselves. Maybe because they need groceries and gas and a hot meal in their bellies. Probably a little of each, but for sure the latter. And that’s OK. They still need a few things from mom and dad. Thank goodness. And we still want them to come home. Thank goodness.
In the simplest of terms, it’s what being a family is all about – along with tucking each other in at night. Thank goodness. Jill Pertler is an awardwinning syndicated columnist, published playwright and author. She invites readers to follow the Slices of Life page on Facebook.

It’s Friday night at 11 p.m. – the end of a particularly hectic week and I am tired. But it is OK, because I can go to bed, thank goodness. They don’t need me to tuck them in anymore, at least not on Fridays, when they outlast me and sometimes end up tucking me in because it’s been a long week and they are usually kind to their mom. This tucking, while sweet, is by no means guaranteed. They have places to go and things to do most Friday nights. Such is the life when you are a teenager or slightly beyond. On the best nights (my viewpoint, not theirs) they are all home under one roof, but that doesn’t happen often. It wasn’t long ago that was the norm. They’d be home, in their beds, tucked in by 8 because they were little and tired. Looking back I suppose I took it for granted. I took lots of things for granted. Them being home and in their beds. Having dinner together every night. Sitting with them over a bowl of cereal in the morning or ice cream in the evening. The security of car seats. Snuggling together on the couch watching Nemo. Reading “Go Dog Go,” over and over. Little things. Everyday things that seemed everyday until they weren’t anymore.

ROSEWOOD BRINGS NEW LIFE, BRANSON-STYLE ENTERTAINMENT TO FORMER MILLIE’S By Michael S. Hoey CORRESPONDENT
O
riginally scheduled to open in May 2014, Rosewood finally opened its doors on the site of the former’s Millie’s Restaurant near Delavan Lake on Oct. 9. Owners Mark and Gretch Hladish, who made performing at Millie’s a staple of their entertainment business, have transformed the building into a premier venue for music and dining. “The vision of the property owners was grander than ours,” Mark Hladish said about the delay in opening. “They wanted to completely rejuvenate the space, and it took a little longer to make it reality.” Millstead Inc. owns the building and property at 2484 Highway O, and Mark and Gretch Hladish own the business they said they believe will fit nicely with the touristdriven economy of the area. “The sum total of all the improvements and potential made us realize putting off the opening would allow us to offer so much more,” Mark said. The former Millie’s building was completely gutted with much of what was inside sold at auction. The building was also deteriorating. Entire walls had to be reset in new foundations, all new plumbing and electrical systems were installed and the roof and exterior siding were replaced. Much of the interior of the building was renovated and repurposed. About half of the 20,000 square feet makes up Rosewood. The remaining space is for lease with a restaurant and an English pub as future business possibilities, said Gretch Hladish. The former Millie’s gift shop at the back of the building was cleared of vertical beams and transformed into an intimate cabaret-style theatre with premium Bose sound system and a nearly floor-to-ceiling video board. A new bar was put in the back of the room
with a stained glass window that was part of the former Millie’s and the Hladishs said they are proud that local contractors did nearly all of the work on the building. In addition to the 140-seat theater, Rosewood offers two spaces for dining, weddings and private events that can seat 200 people, a shopping village that includes holdovers The Stitchery and Everything Homespun, two new Rosewood galleries and shops, two renovated gazebos for weddings and two apartments for rent. Gretch Hladish said a farmhouse on the property could someday be turned into an arts colony. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the work,” Mark Hladish said. “Every piece in the building has artistic appeal, and it was a monumental rejuvenation and repurposing of a property.” The primary focus of Rosewood, the Hladishs said, is entertainment, but the dining is important as well. Chef John Schnupp, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, his wife, Joy, and their sons, Jesse and Jacob, provide a fresh farm-to-table dining experience with meat and produce from farms no more than 200 miles away. Mark said the only freezer in the kitchen is for ice and ice cream. Gretch said guests can come for brunch and a show or purchase show tickets alone. The inspiration for Rosewood, Gretch Hladish said, was a strong desire for regional arts in the area. Mark and Gretch Hladish have been performing together since 2004, and 40 percent of their business was at Millie’s. When Millie’s closed, they had to consider their options. Mark Hladish said owning their own venue was not on their radar screen at first, but no venues in the area were interested in what they wanted to offer on a regular basis. Gretch said once the idea for Rosewood formed, they needed help making it reality. “The investors were excited about it,” she said.
“It was a group of people who believed this idea was overdue for this area,” Mark Hladish said. Rosewood will not just be a showcase for the Hladishs. It will also provide a physical home for the Midwest Artists Network, an organization the Hladishs created 10 years ago that offers performers a way to collaborate. Unlike venues with set schedules, Rosewood’s business is driven by group sales and is event-driven. Mark Hladish said the number of senior tours that pass through the Midwest offer many opportunities for a stop in the area. Tour groups see what Rosewood has to offer and book a date. Whatever space remains for that show is made available to the public, many times in the afternoon during the week. People interested in attending a show just need to check the Rosewoodwi.com website to see what shows are available. The Hladishs plan to perform about 150 cabaret shows a year and offer 12 theme shows that will include holidays. The music combined with the video wall and production value provide the only Branson-style theater in the area, Mark Hladish said. “It is a unique intimate listening space to see a show,” Mark said. “It is more like a living room than a concert hall.” Other performers will also be invited to perform at Rosewood, and many different styles of music will be offered. Mark Hladish said the area has many seasonal events that offer good music, but they are for short periods and dependent on good weather. Rosewood is open year-round and indoors. “We want to provide good family entertainment without breaking the bank,” Gretch Hladish said. Another layer of the business includes wedding planning. Rosewood is not just a venue for a wedding, it can coordinate everything needed to provide a wedding. Rosewood also offers a venue for corporate
team-building events and presentations and culinary and wine-tasting events. The Hladishs say they could not make Rosewood a reality without their team. The Schnupps take care of the dining, Jeff Iverson is the bar manager, his wife, Beth, is the wedding planner, Debbie Slawson is the retail manager, Pat Bladow is the group sales and private events coordinator, and Shawn Slawson is the technical producer. Slawson got a degree in film at the Fullsail Visual Arts School in Florida and, Mark Hladish said “got it” when he pitched what the Hladishs wanted to do with Rosewood. “The production was a far bigger undertaking than one person could do, and I needed some outside expertise,” he said. Hladish said the video production of each show is an extension of Slawson’s creative expression. The Hladishs have overcome the usual challenges in opening a new business. They also overcame Mark Hladish’s open heart and bypass surgery almost two years ago. “You can’t imagine what it felt like to get the key to the front door, even in the demolition phase,” Mark Hladish said. “It was exhilarating.” He said his parents used to bring him to Millie’s for breakfast when he was a child, and he was married in the building. “There is a lot of history in this building for a lot of people,” he said. “We inherited a legacy property.” Hladish said knowing so many people share a history there is a unique privilege, and the magic goes on. “People want to come back and revisit places like that, and we want to be a part of that,” he said. “We want people to have an experience that makes them want to come back.” “This is a way to allow the place to continue to have a heartbeat,” Gretch Hladish said. “It’s not just a business.”
