Reserve Deputy Woods terminated by Sheriff’s Department following departmental investigation by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com On Sunday, Feb. 23, Wabash County Sheriff Bob Land terminated Reserve Deputy Walter W. Woods after a departmental investigation revealed that Woods violated a work release agreement with Community Corrections. Under this agreement, an inmate housed in the Wabash County Jail was allowed to work full-time for Tri-W Plumbing Heating & AC, a business owned and operated by Woods. The investigation, with which both the inmate and Woods fully cooperated, revealed that the inmate violated multiple parts of the agreement while under the supervision of Woods. The most serious of the violations was crossing the state border into Illinois with members of Woods’ family and the inmate’s girlfriend on Feb. 15. All violations took place while the inmate was on release working for Woods at Tri-W. The termination comes just two weeks after Woods filed for candidacy to run against Sheriff Land (as well as Jim Eubank) in the upcoming election for Sheriff. On the morning of Feb. 24, Sheriff Land issued an extensive statement on the matter, which has been included in full below: “As sheriff of Wabash County, I am responsible for all inmates in my facility, including the Work Release Program.
The Work Release Program is maintained and operated through Community Corrections. “On Feb. 18, 2014, the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department was notified by Community Corrections that an inmate in the Community Corrections program at the Wabash County jail violated his work release agreement by traveling out of state without permission. His agreement allows him to work for a local business, with certain restrictions. The restrictions for this inmate included: Participants may be released to work at a place of full-time employment within Wabash, Miami, Kosciusko, Fulton, Huntington or Grant counties in the state of Indiana. The participants may work outside of the counties listed above only in order to maintain employment which he or she held prior to beginning his or her current sentence. Participants are responsible to provide their own transportation. They must go directly to the job site, remain at the job site throughout the work shift, and return directly to the Community Corrections facility after work. Authorized exceptions to this policy are at the discretion of the Community Corrections staff. Work release participants may not enter any restaurant or establishment that sells food items while they are part of the Work Release Program. There are no exceptions to this policy unless the program participant drives himself or her-
Walter W. Woods self to work and has to purchase gas for his or her personal vehicle. Participants who leave work earlier than scheduled, for any reason, must return immediately to the Community Corrections work release facility. Work release participants are accountable to the Community Corrections staff for their whereabouts and activities at all times. Providing false information or falsifying employer docu-
Sheriff Bob Land
mentation will result in disciplinary sanctions. “These restrictions were given to the inmate’s employer on Aug. 28, 2013, at which time the employer agreed to and signed. The local business that the inmate works for is operated by one of my reserve deputies, Walter Woods. “The inmate was scheduled to work for his employer on Feb. 15, 2014. The (continued on page 16)
First Merchants Bank robbed, suspect unidentified
by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com At 10:19 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 19, a hooded suspect entered First Merchants Bank, located at 189 W. Market Street, and demanded money. The robbery took just two minutes, and the suspect fled the scene before police could respond to the bank alarm. Wabash Police Department Assistant Chief Matt Bruss guarded the bank’s entrance following the robbery, informing bank patrons that the bank may be closed for the rest of the day. “We know that it was a white male, probably around 6 ft tall, maybe a little bit taller, and there was no weapon involved. He did leave with an undisclosed amount of money, so at that point, we’re just trying to determine who we’re searching for,” said Bruss. “He left the bank on foot, but from there, we’re not sure.” A press release from the police department the following day clarified that the suspect had his hand in his sweatshirt pocket during the robber and could have had a weapon in his pocket, but no weapon was displayed. The suspect left the bank at 10:21 a.m., walked through the bank’s east parking lot and continued down the alley toward Miami or Canal St. Police believe he had a vehicle in the area, but it has not been identified. This marks the second bank robbery in Wabash County in less than one month. On Jan. 24, First Financial Bank in

As of 2:45 p.m. on the day of the robbery, authorities had recovered what they believed to be the subject’s red hooded sweatshirt on Dora Road just west of America Road. The suspect had not been identified as of Monday.
“I just spoke with the detective in charge, and we really don’t have anything to add at this time,” Police Chief Larry Schnepp said Monday morning. “If we did, we’d sure get it out there, but we’re still working with what we’ve got.” If anyone saw the suspect in the downtown area or saw the suspect get into a vehicle, they are urged to notify Detective Captain Jim Kirk or Detective John Krhin at the Wabash City Police Department by calling 260-563-1111.

Four Wabash County educators receive Lilly Endowment grants
by Emily Armentrout emily@thepaperofwabash.com Four Wabash County educators recently received
Teacher Creativity Fellowship Program grants through the Lily Endowment. Out of more than 450 applications from Indiana teachers, 100
were selected for the opportunity, including: John Pence, Wabash-Miami Area Program; Kathy H a w k i n s , M a n c h e s t e r Elementary School; Abigail Armentrout, Wabash Middle School; and Sarah Andrews, Wabash Middle School. Mr. Pence, along with his daughter, Anna, will be traveling to El Salvador in June. Mrs. Hawkins will be traveling to England, and Miss Armentrout and Mrs. Andrews will be traveling together to Europe, visiting Spain and England. John Pence is a School Psychologist with the WabashMiami Area Program for E x c e p t i o n a l Children. He serves as a member of a multidisciplinary team, evaluating students for educational disabilities, helping plan the education of students with an identified education-
al disability, consulting with teams at the building level to provide support for general education students who are struggling academically and/or behaviorally, and providing individual interventions to students who are at risk of academic failure. Pence works with students all across Wabash County and in Peru Community Schools. While in El Salvador, Pence plans to immerse himself in the El Salvadoran culture. He and Anna will be living with two Salvadorans, which will give them “ample opportunity to practice Spanish and receive feedback,” according to Pence’s proposal. They will attend three soccer matches and take in a day at the beach. Their trip isn’t purely to enjoy the fun aspects of El Salvador though. Pence and Anna will help run three weekend feeding programs, where they will prepare and distribute food to the homeless. They will also be building a

Pence and Anna will also travel to San Salvador to help teach English to kindergarten students. Grant money will also be used to update their computer lab, which has 13 computers, “half of which are over ten years old and non-

functional,” said Pence. “I have made trips to the country in the past and have always longed to return,” Pence told The Paper. “I am hoping that this time will help to improve my rudimentary Spanish and will help to deepen my cultural sensitivity for students I might encounter here in Indiana, who originate from this region of Central America. I am also hoping that my time in El Salvador will help me to understand a little more about the impact of poverty on education,” concluded Pence. Kathy Hawkins is a second grade teacher at Manchester Elementary. With 27 years of experience under her belt, she finds herself wondering if what she
has created in her career is lasting. This question takes her back to the first time she received this grant in 2007, when she visited England and got the first glimpse of dry stone walls. The walls were “substantial, beautiful and functional structures that were built to last centuries. I was mesmerized by the way the stones were meticulously placed in just the right way to keep the structuring from toppling. ‘Here,’ I thought to myself, ‘is something created to last,’” explained Hawkins in her grant proposal. Hawkins’ first trip to England covered the England Lake District and the life of Beatrice Potter. The dry stone walls covered the country(continued on page 3)

Four Wabash County educators receive Lilly Endowment grants... continued from page 2 side, and upon her return home, she began noticing images of walls in the literature she read to her students, like the wall from Humpty Dumpty and that which enclosed Mary Lennox’s secret garden. “These examples and more support the notion that walls occupy an important and enduring place in our human story,” continued Hawkins. Hawkins’ human story, after 27 years of teaching, is seeking the renewal that the English countryside and the Teacher Creativity grant offers her. “I really want to encourage other people to apply for these grants. It is curricular based, but it’s also really about renewal and in this day and age for teachers, we definitely need renewal,” Hawkins told The Paper. While on her trip, Hawkins will take a beginner’s course on walling from Andrew Louden, a professional wall builder in Cumbria, England. She will also visit a museum that illustrates different techniques in building the walls and features of the Cumbrian dry stone walls. Hawkins’ trip will actually end in Kentucky, where she will train with the Dry Stone Conservancy and learn how to build a dry stone wall of her own. Hawkins intends to create a dry stonewall on her family farm in North Manchester. She even plans on inviting former and future students to wall building evenings to help create a lasting impression on her life. Though working with stone, she won’t find herself in the stone age when it comes to technology. Hawkins will take full advantage of today’s technology by blogging daily so that her students can follow along on her trip. “Student by student, I build my classroom each year, carefully designing and fitting the beautiful pieces together to create a community of learning that is solid and lasting.
Stone by stone, I will build my wall, carefully designing and fitting the beautiful pieces together to create a structure, a stone wall, that will last for years to come,” added Hawkins. A b i g a i l Armentrout, a Spanish teacher at Wabash Middle School, and Sarah Andrews, an art teacher at Wabash Middle School and W.C. Mills, are also grant recipients. Armentrout and Andrews will be traveling together to Europe, spending the majority of their time in Spain, but traveling to London to further their study of Spanish history through art. “To receive the Lilly Teacher Creativity Grant is a fantastic honor for Abi and Sarah,” said Jason C a l l a h a n , Superintendent of Wabash City Schools. “I am very proud of them for what they bring to our kids. This is a highly competitive grant and only the best proposals are approved,” added Callahan. Armentrout and Andrews have worked together for the past three years in the Wabash City School system. Over that time, they have developed a close friendship, which was one deciding factor in applying for the Lilly grant together. “We share a lot of interests. We share a lot of the same ideas about art.” Andrews told The Paper. “Sarah kind of became my mentor teacher when I first started here. Knowing we work so well together made us feel more comfortable planning such a long trip,” added Armentrout. Preparing their proposal was a joint effort, with Andrews doing most of the travel planning and Armentrout doing a majority of the written portion. The two recognize the many strengths they each bring to this experience. “I feel very comfortable navigating Spain and using my knowledge of the language to get us where we need to go,” Armentrout told
The Paper. With Andrews’ previous European travel experience, the two are not concerned about barriers getting in their way. Armentrout discovered her love for Spanish as a freshman in high school. “Introvert, wallflower, uninspired. These words could be used to describe me before I found Spanish,” explained Armentrout in their proposal. “I knew entering high school that I wanted to be a teacher, but that was as far as my aspirations reached,” continued Armentrout. Inspired by her Spanish teacher, Señora Jann Wolf, who used her own travel experiences to enhance her student’s learning, Armentrout set a life goal to inspire her students in the same way. With the Teacher Creativity Grant being partially about teacher renewal, it could not have come at a better time for Armentrout. Over the past two years, Armentrout has been going through health issues she never anticipated experiencing. As The Paper has previously r e p o r t e d , Armentrout found out in February 2012 that she was in end stage renal failure. One year later, she received and kidney t r a n s p l a n t . Following her oneyear check up, with a clean bill of health in hand, Armentrout received notice that she had received the grant as well. Andrews has been teaching art for almost 35 years. She has traveled to London, Paris, Austria and Italy. “I love to travel and see cultures and bring them back to school. I see my students blossom when I share the life and time of an artist or civilization,” Andrews told The Paper. Andrews hopes to use the Lilly Creativity Grant to renew her artistic spirit. “As an artist, I would treasure the time I would spend being enlightened by Spanish culture and creating my own art-
work to share with my students with the hope of inspiring them as well,” Andrews wrote in their proposal. They will travel to Spain, visiting museums and historic sites such as the Guggenheim, El Escorial and Valley of the Fallen; they will also visit the cathedrals of Granada and Seville. The two will go on a private tour of the Spanish Masterpiece collection of the Prado Museum, where they will learn about Spanish history through the art of the Spanish Master Artists. Also on the agenda is La Sagrada Família, which is “dedicated specifically to Spanish artists Antoni, Gaudí, Salvador Dalí, and Pablo Picasso,” explained their proposal. Andrew is looking forward most to the museums, while Armentrout is looking forward to visiting La Sagrada Família. This year, these two educators, along with the band director, Mr. Woodruff, and the physical education teacher, Mr. O’Neill, will be creating a mock bullfight for Armentrout’s Spanish students to participate in. While visiting Spain, Armentrout and Andrews will attend
a bullfight to gain first-hand knowledge to enhance the authenticity of this event in the next school year. The last leg of their trip will be spent in London, visiting museums that contain art and historical artifacts that illustrate important periods and events in Spanish history. With the intentions of inspiring their students and themselves with this trip, Armentrout and Andrews will use their photographs, daily journal entries, new found knowledge of the Spanish culture, and original artwork by Andrews to create a bilingual electronic book they will use in their classrooms for years to come.
KATHY HAWKINS, MANCHESTER ELEMENTARY, will be going back to England after receiving the Teacher Creativity grant from the Lilly Endowment for the second time in her career. You can only win the grant twice, and if you receive it once, you must wait six years to apply again. “I didn’t think this would happen twice, but it did and I am overjoyed,” Hawkins told The Paper.

Fahs Brown Plumbing selected as Business of the Year by North Manchester Chamber of Commerce
By Shaun Tilghman Last Thursday, former Citizen of the Year recipient Anne Myers took great pride in presenting the 2013 Commerce Award to Jan Fahs and Andy Brown, owners of Fahs Brown Plumbing, at the 70th Annual North Manchester Chamber of Commerce Dinner on the Manchester University campus. “All of us are survivors of the early January snow and cold we have come to know as the ‘polar vortex’,” said Myers, “and some might even say it has returned. So, we are grateful to those who are our visible protectors during these difficult times – our police department, our fire department, and our street department. However, there is another layer of people we rely on that are not as visible to us; in fact, we usually don’t even think about them, that is, until we need them. “Remember how cold it was? How much snow we had? Frozen water pipes? No power? No heat? Not good combinations. When the calls for help came in, our neighbors in the heating and plumbing business went into action without hesitation, putting on their heavy-duty clothing, going out in the cold and snow, and responding to the needs of their customers in the community. The Commerce Award for 2013 is presented tonight to one such business: Fahs Brown Plumbing.” During the severe winter storm, Fahs Brown Plumbing received 46 emergency calls, and on Monday and Tuesday alone they took 16 calls for no heat, according to Myers. “Jan Fahs and Andy Brown are lifelong residents of North Manchester – Andy from birth and Jan from the age of six,” she added. “They both were educated in M a n c h e s t e r Community Schools and graduated from Manchester High School,” Myers continued. “After high school graduation, their lives took different paths; but the two eventually reconnected in North Manchester, and their personal relationship led to marriage, as well as forming the basis for their profes-
FAHS BROWN PLUMBING was awarded the 2013 Business of the Year Commerce Award. Pictured are, from left: Jan Fahs Brown, Andy Brown and presenter Anne Myers. (photo by Eric Christiansen) sional partnership.” Jan’s path after high school led her to earn her undergraduate degree from Manchester College. She spent her junior and senior years of college studying in Strausburg, France, with the Brethren Colleges Abroad program, and her desire to experience the world then led her to Honduras and Panama. Once she returned to the U.S., Jan lived in New Orleans, La., Huntsville, Ala., and Glendale, Ariz., where she earned her Masters Degree from the Thunderbird School of Global Management. Andy, on the other hand, remained in North Manchester following high school graduation. He spent 12 years working at Hipp Electric and becoming a skilled tradesman. He appreciated the opportunity to work along side David Hippensteel, who generously shared his technical expertise and served as a teacher and mentor for Andy. During his time at Hipp Electric, Andy became a licensed plumber and an experienced electrician. “In 1996, Jan returned to North Manchester and began
teaching at Manchester College,” Myers explained. “In 2001, Jan and Andy started Fahs Brown Plumbing, and Dick Miller soon joined them in the business. Dick worked part-time assisting Andy in anything and everything; he remained with the business until 2010, when he died at the age of 75. “It didn’t take long for Jan and Andy to realize that a growing business and raising their twins, Andy and Matthew, would require the full attention of them both. In 2007, Jan resigned from teaching and assumed control of business management for the company, and their business grew and grew. Now, their fleet of white trucks
with the Fahs Brown Plumbing logo on the side can be seen all over town.” With the success their business has experienced, Jan and Andy have added two full-time employees, Chad Calvert and Andy Blocher, one part-time employee, Keith Skiles, and one seasonal employee, Jim Baker. “Jan and Andy are active in the community as well, giving of both their time and their talent,” Myers said. “Especially close to their hearts has been the Manchester Early Learning Center (MELC), where their boys received care. Andy serves on the board of, and has been a tireless advocate of, the MELC. They have not only given of their
financial resources, but more importantly, Andy also donated hours of his labor, in addition to providing all of the materials, when the MELC recently replaced their substandard kitchen. “Jan is a member and past chair of the Timbercrest Board of Directors. She also served two terms on the Manchester Community Schools Board of Trustees and is very active in the Manchester Church of the Brethren, where she serves as treasurer. But, you are just as likely to find her in the kitchen, utilizing her culinary and management skills, coordinating dinners and receptions. “The couple has been generous in donating to the Strauss-Peabody Aquatic and Fitness Center, as well as many other projects in our community. Most important to them, however, are their two sons, who are juniors at Manchester High School. Both boys are exceptional athletes – David is a skilled soccer player and one of the keys to the success of the program, while Matthew is a strong, fast, long distance runner who, as a sophomore, placed 60th out of 206 competitors in the State Cross Country meet last fall.” Myers concluded by saying she was honored to present the award to the co-owners of Fahs Brown Plumbing because of what they have done for North Manchester. “Jan and Andy are children of our com-
munity, who put down roots here as adults, and give back to our town through their business and commitment to the quality of life we enjoy here,” she said. “They believe in a good job at a fair price, and we are proud of their success as a small business in North Manchester.” Andy thanked Anne for the kind introduction before expressing a sincere thank you to the Chamber of Commerce as he and Jan accepted their award. “We are honored to join the long line of businesses that have received this award in the past,” Andy added. “We want to thank all of our employees for their hard work, and we especially want to
5
thank our sons, David and Matthew, for putting up with us when there are emergency service calls that interrupt our family time.” Jan said, “There are just so many people we need to thank for helping us build Fahs Brown Plumbing. As Anne mentioned, Dick Miller was our first employee, and we lost Dick in 2010 but we are so pleased that his wife, Janet, could be here with us tonight; so, thank you Janet. We also thank all of our customers. We sincerely appreciate your patience with us when there are emergencies, and we look forward to many more years of working in the community. Thank you so much!”

Couple enjoys a “night out”
THE COUPLE’S TENT, set up in their back yard, was covered in snow when they woke up the next morning. “It’s heavy duty,” said John. “The poles are heavy duty. I have snow stakes that you push into the snow and pack the snow on top of. It’s pretty much bomb proof.” (photo provided) us. To be camping in the really cold temperatures, you better have the gear to do it. Know the gear, know your limitations, and have a pretty good understanding of what can happen out there.” “For people to winter camp, they really have to think it through,” Boo added. “They have to have good gear and layer and think about the worst case scenarios so they know what (continued on page 11)

age and preparation easier. As far as cooking is concerned, the couple has a foolproof system. By vacuum sealing and freezing the leftovers from some of their favorite meals at home, the couple can enjoy the home cooked food they love with very few resources. “We’ll eat chicken piccata and port-a-pit chicken and lasagna,” said Boo. “All we have to do is take it and put it in boiling water, and then we don’t have all the dishes. We eat well, and it’s no mess, and it’s easy.” For these two, winter camping is the way to go, but they were sure to note that planning and having the right gear is important with any cold weather camping, especially when temperatures drop as low as they did this year. “Preparation is a big thing,” said John. “For us, we had the gear, and we did it, and it worked out for

in Michigan, temperatures dropped to 9 degrees. This year, they wanted to see if they could handle the unusually cold temperatures. On this particular night, the couple camped in the back yard of their home on the north side of Wabash. More than just a chance to winter camp, this was a chance to test their gear against sub-zero temperatures and prepare for future camping trips. “We did it in the back yard so that if we got really cold and miserable, we could go inside,” said John. “Would we be afraid to go up to Michigan now and camp at 0 or below? We wouldn’t, because we probably would have been OK at 10 or 15 below with the gear we had. This was a good test for us.” John, a retired conservation officer, grew up with a father and grandfather who were enthusiastic campers and first exposed him to camping in the cold season. John and Boo, a student advocate and tutor at Northfield High School, as well as Wabash City Council member, regularly traveled to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore during fall break. “We got to talking and thought it would be kind of cool to come here during the winter,” said John. The couple bought some new gear, including snowshoes, and started driving to the campground between Christmas and New Years. The last couple years, they’ve gone up in February. For John and Boo, winter camping offers many benefits over camping in the summer, which they avoid. “We like to hear the wind blow through the trees and hear the snow hit the rain fly,” said John. “What’s nice is that nobody’s there. You have the whole campground to yourself, and there’s no bugs, and we don’t have to worry about bears.” “You listen to the coyotes at night,” said Boo, “and the owls. It’s neat. It’s pretty peaceful. We enjoy it.” Though winter camping has its challenges, the absence of bears makes food stor-

Beneath them, thin, insulated air mattresses, known as a Therm-a-Rests, and two old Army sleeping pads protected them from the frozen ground. A final layer of Army blankets kept their body heat in, as a vented tent roof kept this heat from forming condensation. “As a matter of fact, I got too warm,” said Boo, who’s Nalgene water bottle, filled with hot water, keeps her feet warm. If she gets thirsty, she has water nearby, and it preheats her sleeping bag and as a bonus. “Now, my favorite part of the night is crawling into the cold sleeping bag. That’s what I like,” said John. “Boo doesn’t. She likes the warmth, but I like to crawl in there and get that hood pulled down so just a little part is exposed. It’s just nice.” The couple tent camps during the winter each year, for up to a week at a time. They’ve been to Canada’s Quetico Provincial Park just north of the Minnesota boarder, Montana’s Glacier National Park, and various locations in Michigan. On last year’s trip to a favorite campground

by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com A winter like Wabash County has experienced this year can mean different things to different people. To students, it’s a chance for a few days away from school. To road crews, it means a lot of overtime. To wintertime vacationers, it means possible flight delays, or worse, being stranded overnight in an airport. For one local couple, however, this season’s extreme weather meant an opportunity to do something they love; on Jan. 26, John and Boo Salb went camping. “The other night, we got home from Fort Wayne, and we kind of looked at each other, and I said, ‘hey, why don’t we get the tent set up,’ and she said, ‘I was just thinking the same thing,’” said John. “We got everything set up before the snow hit and it was in the low 30s. We woke up, and it was 2 below, and we slept great.” The wind-chill on that January morning was -17 degrees, but the couple’s fourseason tent kept cold wind and overnight snow outside. Inside, husband and wife each slept in long johns, socks, and a winter hat. Side-byside each was

Jodi Barrett Honored for Community Spirit By Shaun Tilghman After describing the Spirit of the Community Award as a prestigious honor that any recipient will always cherish, Jim Myer, who won the award last year, expressed his extreme delight in being asked to present Jodi Barrett with the award for 2013. The presentation took place during the 70th Annual North Manchester Chamber of Commerce Dinner at Manchester University on Jan. 23. “This year’s recipient comes from a hardworking, closeknit family,” said Myer, “and had to endure the loss of her mother in an automobile accident when she was just a 5thgrader. Jodi has only ever attended the Eel River Church of the Brethren and is a graduate of Whitko High School. She attended beauty school and is now the owner of River Side Salon, but she still takes her talents as a stylist ‘on the road’ at times by going to clients’ homes or nursing homes to do their hair if they can’t get out. “She has also helped at school whenever needed and is involved with the local MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group. Jodi is cur-
rently vice president of the Fellowship of Churches, where she has been on the board for nine years. In addition, she is the person in charge of, and the driving force behind, the Christmas Food Boxes, which served over 240 local families in need at Christmas by distributing more than 300 boxes of food.” Barrett is responsible for spreading the word about getting donations, coordinating a contest within the schools that encourages students to bring in donations, and picking up all of the food and bringing it back to the Fellowship of Churches for sorting and packing, according to Myer. “She also coordinates a caravan type trip of four vans to Aldi to buy food with the monetary donations sent in for the food boxes,” he added. “From time to time, Rowena Greer, of the Food Pantry, calls for help throughout the year,” Myer continued, “and Jodi is always there with a smile to help whenever needed. She also helps with the Angel Tree project, which is an annual project through Fellowship of Churches that seeks to ensure each child in North Manchester
has a present under the tree on Christmas morning. “I’ve already mentioned that she has been involved on the Eel River Church of the Brethren board for several years, and when the church flooded last spring, you already know who was the first one there and the last one to leave when it came to cleaning up. When the church celebrated its 175th anniversary with a large outdoor gathering, you could find you know who working outside and inside for months sprucing things up.” Myer went on to say that Barrett is the true epitome of a “doer”, because when there is work that needs to be done there is never a complaint – she just rolls up her sleeves and jumps right into action. “In addition to everything I’ve already said, she was honored as Citizen of the Year last year by Women United, a division of the Fellowship of Churches,” Myer concluded. “And last, but certainly not least, Jodi and her husband, Jason, are raising their 10-yearold daughter, Lauren, and their seven-yearold son, Isaac.” Barrett stated that she was honored to receive the award but that it came as a total

surprise because she had been persuaded to attend under the guise of accepting an award in conjunction with the church. “I didn’t plan to give a speech or anything, but it’s an honor to receive this award and I really appreciate everything,” Barrett explained. “I couldn’t do what I do without my friends and family, or without so much help throughout the community. I don’t like to ask for help and it’s hard to do so, but it goes a long way knowing that help is there when I do need it. I’m proud to accept this honor and it is a very meaningful award. Thank you so much.”

Knights win county battle over Norse by Gary Andrews Every year as the boys’ basketball regular season nears the end, county rivals Southwood and Northfield do battle for bragging rights of the metro school system. The two squads fought that battle Friday night at Northfield with the Knights winning the war 75-46. Southwood got off to a good start right off the bat on a Corey Phillipy three that was followed by a bucket from Alex Harmon to lead 5-0. Jarred Short would get the Norse on the board and cut the lead to 2 points with a three before the Knights scored 6 straight. Jackson Blair hit, then got a steal for a lay-up before Harmon made it 11-3. Tanner Wilcox stopped the run with a bucket when Alex Harmon answered with a dunk to make it 13-5. Blair and Phillipy would trade buckets with Wilcox and the Knights led 17-9 after one. Corey Phillipy hit two free throws to start the second quarter with Wilcox quickly getting his fourth bucket. Corey’s brother Ross would get in on the action trading buckets with Jon Richardson as Southwood led 25-17. Ross Phillipy would then hit followed by two Harmon buckets to increase the lead to 3117. Jarred Short stopped the run, but Corey Phillipy and Jackson Blair answered and the Knights led 36-21 at the half. Down 15 at the half the Norse would need to chip away at the Knight lead and make it manageable before

they’re doing.” While many cannot understand why anyone would ever choose to sleep outside on a cold winter night, it’s something that the Salbs have grown to love. And while it may not be a popular hobby, the couple kind of likes it that way. They don’t mind being the only ones enjoying the peaceful campgrounds of our nation’s parks in winter. “Everybody has their own thing, and this is kind of what we like to do,” said Boo. “It’s something different. Nobody else will do it, and everyone thinks we’re nuts.” “It keeps our marriage interesting,” said John. “It just adds to it.” “We both enjoy it,” Boo added. “It’s challenging, and there’s a lot of things you have to take into consideration when doing something like this. Hopefully it’s something we can do for some time.”
The next time the mercury drops, the wind starts to blow, and most people dread leaving their home even for a moment, at least two
people in town will look out the window with a different perspective. John and Boo Salb will see it as an opportunity to grab a couple sleeping
bags, crawl into a tent, and share some time listening to the sounds of nature before falling asleep in the brisk winter air.

Dr. William Dannacher, 95 U.S. Navy & Air Force veteran Jan. 21, 1919 – Feb. 12, 2014
Dr. William Dennis Dannacher, 95, died on Feb. 12, 2014 at his home. He was born Jan. 21, 1919, in Indianapolis to Dennis H. and Mae (Withers) Dannacher. Dr. Dannacher was a 1936 graduate of Wabash High School. He attended Indiana University and received scholarships for swimming and wrestling, winning I.U. letters in both sports. His wrestling team became Big Ten Champions and Midwest A.A.W. Champions for two years running. He was also an active member of the Sigma Pi Fraternity. Dr. Dannacher earned his M.D. degree from Indiana University School of Medicine in 1942. Graduating in the upper 10 percent of his class, he was elected membership in the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. In 1942, Dr. Dannacher was commissioned into the U.S. Navy where he performed a one year rotating internship, and then served two years in the amphibious force as Lt.MC, with duty in the Mediterranean Sea and the English Channel. Dr. Dannacher was Chief Medical Officer on LST transport ships, with numerous combat missions that included the D-Day landings on Normandy Beach. Returning to the U.S., he had two years of approved residency in General Surgery at the 3,000-bed Naval Hospital in Portsmouth, Va. At that time, Dr. Dannacher married his former wife Emily Marteen Dannacher who was a Navy WAVE. They went on to raise five children. After separation from the Navy, Dr. Dannacher returned to Wabash to start a private practice in general surgery. In 1950, he organized the area’s first group practice by founding the Wabash Clinic. He was instrumental in building the Wabash County Hospital from a small out-dated building to a 130-bed hospital with modern facilities. During his more than 37 years as a General Surgeon, Dr. Dannacher performed more than 25,000 scheduled surgical operations, along with several thousand emergency cases. In 1967, Dr. Dannacher became a Diplomat of the American Board of Abdominal Surgeons, and a Fellow of the International College of Surgeons, serving as president of the ICS’s Indiana Chapter. His numerous professional memberships included the American Medical Association, the District Medical Society, the Indiana State Medical Society, and he alternated as Chief of Surgery at the Wabash County Hospital. Dr. Dannacher was an active pilot for more than thirty years with multi-engine and instrument ratings. He was a member and president of the Indiana chapter of the Flying Physicians, and a Designated Federal Aviation Medical Examiner. After retirement from general surgery in 1989, he was commissioned a Major in the U.S. Air Force Auxiliary when he joined the Civil Air Patrol Wing in Southwest Florida. In 1992, he married Lynn (Wormuth) Dannacher, Peru. He served as the Wabash County Health Officer for ten years, and worked as a consultant in medical-legal cases throughout his retirement years. In 2005, Dr. Dannacher was honored with the Distinguished Hoosier Award, bestowed by Gov. Mitchell Daniels. He also received a proclamation from Wabash’s Mayor Bob Vanlandingham for Outstanding Citizenship and service to his community. Dr. Dannacher’s activities included his love of boating, skiing, pocket billiards, video photography and computer science. He was an avid music enthusiast and played the organ, piano and guitar. He enjoyed a life-long passion for golf, and was a charter member of the Wabash County Club. Dr. Dannacher was preceded in death by his daughter Lynn Dannacher, and sister Mae Williams. His wife Lynn Dannacher, Wabash, survives him. Also surviving are his sons Dennis H. (Marta) Dannacher, Gregory R. Dannacher, and William K (Joan) Dannacher; his daughter Emily Sue Dannacher; his five granddaughters: Dr. Melissa Dannacher, Stefania Dannacher, Amy Dannacher, Molly Dannacher and Hannah Radeke; and his grandson William T. Dannacher. Dr. Dannacher was a strong and loving husband, father, grandfather, friend and dedicated surgeon, who enriched the lives of all who knew him.

North Manchester resident wants new faces in public offices Dear editor, Disclaimer: I am human, therefore not perfect, crazy or stupid. I hate being lied to, and lied about. I hate being manipulated, used and taken for a fool. I hate when good is repaid with evil, and love repaid with hate. I hate being cheated out of what is rightfully mine by those I’ve put my faith in to do the right thing, and being absolutely devastated when they don’t. You know who I’m talking about. The president, his czars, his staff, his congress, his career politicians, his media, NSA, TSA, IRS, and others. I am being cheated out of my country and my freedom! Actions speak louder than words, and it’s time to act. Sometimes you have to be willing to give up everything and stand alone when it’s the right thing to do, and I don’t think we have one politician willing to do that and impeach this president for leading the world in punishing America. The NSA has a bull’s-eye on every American as if we are all terrorists. Collecting massive amounts of information on all of us instead of criminals and real terrorists. They can monitor us through our cell phones and computers, even when we aren’t using them. The TSA? Let’s do like Israel! Enclose passengers one by one in a bombproof compartment. If explosives are present, detonate them with their “host.” Genius!
Here’s a good one! Our economy is improving! Is “stupid” tattooed across our foreheads? How many are out of work, had hours and benefits cut? Pay double or triple for health insurance? Can’t afford groceries, or choose between medicine and food? Can you find a good paying full time job with benefits? Go on a nice vacation, oh! I know! Obama can! Can you afford a full tank of gas? Play golf like a girl every day? Oh! I know! I’d love to see a newspaper full of Obamacare testimonials, how’s that working for you? Is it free? A f f o r d a b l e ? Available? Do you get to keep your tax refund? It is Obama’s fault! Not solely, but mainly. I cannot comprehend being demonized when you do your level best to live by a moral compass, trying to do right by people and standing for God, family and country! Look at the Tea Party, Americans, businesses, and individuals. It’s a shame but expect it, and do good anyways. May primary is coming with Tea Party Candidates worthy of our votes. I won’t be voting for career politicians with recognizable names. You know what I love? Those who go above and beyond what’s required or expected to help others when they need it most! You all know who you are! Thank you and God bless you! Pat Hammons North Manchester

Miss Virginia Ford, 87, Winter Park, Fla., died at 2:33 p.m., Monday, Feb. 17, at Winter Park Memorial Hospital. She was born Aug. 8, 1926 in Wabash, to Wilbur Edwin and Florence Gertrude (Jeup) Ford. She maintained residences in Winter Park and at Lake Maxinkuckee, Culver, where she was a long-time resident. Her parents and two brothers, Stanley W. (1928-1978) and David J. (1929-1979) preceded her in death.

Following graduation, she worked for a short time at the Ford Meter Box Company, Wabash, before joining the Market Research Department of Procter & Gamble. She later became head of hiring for the researchers in that department. A principal interest was music; she played the cello in her college orchestra, and later supported several arts organizations including the Orlando Opera and the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra. She gave her cello to an inner-city school in Orlando, Fla. to encourage its string program, with the hope that the students would enjoy the rapture she had found in music. She also helped support the Winter Park Public Library, the Negro Spiritual Scholarship Foundation, and she delivered Meals on Wheels for many years. Miss Ford was an active alumna of Wellesley College, serving terms as class representative and endowing scholarship funds in memory of her mother and Dr. Mary M. Crawford, both Class of ‘22. She was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Winter Park and she served as Trustee of the Charley Creek Foundation in Wabash.

he was remanded back to the Department of Corrections. “As Sheriff, it is my duty to see that the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department operates with integrity and professionalism, and that no employee, on or off duty, brings disrespect in any way to the department. Once I learned of this situation, a departmental investigation was initiated to determine if Mr. Woods was, in any way, involved with the inmate’s work release violation. My chief deputy, Major Randy Miller, conducted the departmental investigation. “During the departmental investigation, it was found that the
inmate did not travel to Illinois with Mr. Woods, his employer, but, in fact, travelled with the employer’s son, his fiancé, two small children, and an unknown person, later identified as the inmate’s girlfriend. The reason for travelling to Illinois was to pick up a horse for his employer as a gift for the employer’s grandchildren. Mr. Woods was aware of this and allowed it to happen. On the trip, the inmate was allowed to go into at least two convenience stores. “Mr. Woods fully cooperated with the departmental investigation. “After gathering all of the information, Mr. Woods was terminated as a reserve deputy for
the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department on Feb. 23, 2014 for the following reasons: - Mr. Woods allowed the inmate to leave the state of Indiana without permission. - The inmate was allowed to go into public places. - The inmate could have escaped at any time. - Mr. Woods did not have direct control of the inmate. Mr. Woods relied upon family members to oversee security on the inmate. - Mr. Woods utilized the inmate for personal use. “I am releasing this information to the public in order to quash any indication that Mr. Woods’ dismissal from the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department
Reserves was politically motivated. It is unfortunate and bad timing, but I handled this as I would any other employee.”
Woods offered a brief response to the termination, but withheld a full response until speaking with his attorney on Tuesday. “We have received a copy of the news release from the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Office regarding a work release person who worked for Tri-W, and we are evaluating the statement with my attorney,” said Woods. “After the meeting, I will have a full statement in regards to the alleged statements.”

New Beginnings offers second chance to troubled young men by Kalie Ammons kalie@thepaperofwabash.com “We are a nonprofit, n o n d e n o m i n at i o n a l ministry that is a residential facility set up for young males ages 18-25,” said New Beginnings CoDirector Rhonda Duhammel. “These
young men who will be coming here could have been involved in criminal activity, could have been sent to us from the courts or from the outside, they could come from anywhere.” New Beginnings will be using a Christianbased curriculum and traditional resources
to help these men turn their lives around. “We are basically a faith-based ministry that is set up to minister to these young men,” Duhammel said. “We help rehabilitate them, help restore them, and help renew them.” To have a part in this
Having More Retirement Accounts is Not the Same as Having More Money. When it comes to the number of retirement accounts you have, the saying “more is better” is not necessarily true. In fact, if you hold multiple accounts with various brokers, it can be difficult to keep track of your investments and to see if you’re properly diversified.* At the very least, multiple accounts usually mean multiple fees. Bringing your accounts to Edward Jones could help solve all that. Plus, one statement can make it easier to see if you’re moving toward your goals. *Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss.

program, the men have to show a strong dedication and willingness to change. The program is 18 months long and works to completely rehabilitate the men spiritually and socially. “They have to write us a letter asking to be a part of this program,” said Melissa Rice, onsite pastor. “Just because they say they want to do it, we want to know why and if their heart is really in it, not just because mom wants them to do it or grandma or whatever,” continued Rice. “Eighteen months is a long time to commit and sign that covenant agreement that says you’ll go through these classes and put your whole heart and soul into it.” Every minute of the program will work on helping the men achieve their goals for a better future. The time is divided into three six-month sessions. “They come in and we work on them the whole time they’re here,” Duhammel said. “The first six months, we break them away and remove them from all outside influences, keep them here on the property, and work with them on where they’re at with Christ.

JAMES BOOSE AND RHONDA DUHAMMEL await the opening of New Beginnings, a Christian faith-based home for troubled men 18-25 years old looking to change their lives through their 18-month program. Jeff and Rhonda Duhammel are the program’s directors, Boose is the house parent for the program members and Melissa Rice is the pastor. (photo by Kalie Ammons) like 12 Step and anger management courses that they’ll be going through. “They also will be doing a lot of serventhood in the community,” continued Duhammel. “They’ll be back out serving and working. They will be working here on the property and keeping the building up and doing maintenance. We will have Bible studies that they will be involved with, they will be visiting churches and sharing their testimonies.” The first six months will be the most grueling, as it focuses on breaking habits and completely changing the daily lives of the men. The next year will work on helping them live the new life they want to succeed in. “The second six months we work on where they want to go,” Duhammel said. “If they don’t have a GED, we require that they get that before they leave the program. We help to try to set them up so they can succeed once they transition out, and the transition period is the last six months of the program.” The program is not only rehabilitative to the men, helping them to function happily in society, but it also gives them everyday life skills. “If they want to continue further with schooling to get a high school diploma or go on to college, we will help them with that, whether it’s through Ivy Tech or somewhere else,” Rice said. “There are a lot of resources here to help them make themselves more marketable. They’ll be taught skills here. There’s a guy who works on the property that does about every-
thing constructionwise and he’ll teach them as they maintain the building. They’ll go out hopefully more knowledgeable than when they came in.” James Boose, the house parent for the program, says that they will follow the men long after they graduate. “We will keep up with them,” he said. The program started when the issue hit home with Duhammel. With the help of her church, Duhammel decided that Wabash needed a place like this to give to others the second chance her son received. “Lincolnville United Methodist Church came together with my husband and I and started volunteering at a ministry similar to this that our son was in,” said Duhammel. “With doing that volunteer work and helping with them and seeing the transformation in the boys’ lives in that program, we had a deep desire to bring something similar to Wabash.” The men in the program will live in the renovated basement of a former church building that New Beginnings is based out of. The living quarters are set up in a dorm style. There are classrooms and a sanctuary on the main floor. Boose will be living with the men. “I’m just doing what Christ said to do,” Boose said. Boose had a troubling past and changed his way through the Christian faith. He now wants to pass that along to other struggling young men. “The misconception with society is that we like to say ‘drugs are the problem, sex is the problem, alcohol is the problem, I couldn’t
stop stealing is the problem.’ That’s not the problem at all,” Boose said. “That’s a symptom of the problem, that we want to do what we want to do. Once you make that realization and see that as the truth, now you are very equipped to make the right decisions and lead a better life.” The program will not focus on specific acts committed by those involved. “We’re not here to judge them,” Rice said. “We’ve all got skeletons in our closet, and that’s not what we’re about, to shame them into a change.” The facility is not equipped to handle all levels of criminal activity. “I want to emphasize too, this is basically drug and alcohol addiction. We’re not taking murderers or rapists or arsonist or anything like that,” Rice said. “We want to focus on first or second-time offenders. We try to get them early on.” New Beginnings will be hosting a fundraiser on March 8. They will have a “Dancing with Your Star” dance at the REMC building from 6—10 p.m. Harvey Hinklemeyers will cater. For tickets or more information about New Beginnings, contact Rhonda Duhammel at 260-5711147 or Melissa Rice at 260-571-2348.

Two Southwood wrestlers compete at State In the IHSAA State Finals Friday night, Colton Dawes wrestled Cornelious Elliott II in the 113lb class. The Perry Meridian grappler was more experienced at the State level, but Dawes put together some strong offensive and defensive scrambles. In arguably Dawes’ best match of the year, he pushed his opponent to the limit. The final score read as a 5-3 loss, but those watching the match, felt it was one of the better matches of the first round. It was an awesome season for Colton!

North Manchester Historical Society to present “Covered Bridges in Northern Wabash County”
Inspired by the recent restoration of the North Manchester covered bridge, the North M a n c h e s t e r Historical Society is hosting a program on the covered bridges of northern Wabash County. John Knarr, local historian, will present general information as well as his original research on the topic. The program will take place at 6:40 p.m.
on Monday, March 10, in the Assembly Room at Timbercrest Senior Living Community, 2201 East Street. The slide program will concentrate on bridges in Laketon, Liberty Mills and North Manchester and will compare them to other covered bridges in the state. Knarr has gathered information on the bridge builders, the designs
of the bridges, how much they cost and how they were financed. People may not know that there have been several different bridges over the Eel River that were built or replaced at different times. The lumber and metal in previous bridges was often sold to local farmers or businesses. Knarr has been a popular presenter at Historical Society
programs. Last year he shared original, previously-unpublished research on the Thomas Marshall Family. NMHS president Mary Chrastil notes that Knarr goes above and beyond as a researcher. “John doesn’t just report what he finds; he thoughtfully examines the material and goes back to the original source, often documenting corrections to earlier

Lady Apaches fall short at Lapel
by Gary Andrews The Wabash Lady Apaches were in pursuit of their first regional title at Lapel Saturday, winning the first game 55-48 over Southmont before falling short against Tipton in the championship game 48-37. The Lady Apaches got off to a slow start in their game against Southmont. After leading 6-2 Southmont would out score Wabash 11-2 the remainder of the quarter to lead Wabash 13-8 after one.
Wabash, showing no panic came storming back in the second. Sarah Puckett would hit a free throw that ignited a 6-1 run as the Lady Apaches tied the score at 14 just two minutes into the second. After a Southmont three and trailing 17-14 Kyleigh Hampton would connect twice, one a three to give Wabash a 19-17 lead. Puckett would then hit two free throws, followed by buckets from Claire Cromer and Lyndsie Thomas to lead 25-17.
Thomas and Cromer would each hit one more time in the quarter and Wabash led 30-18 at the half. Southmont, behind their three six footers would start to pound the ball down low in the third against the smaller Apaches and out scored Wabash 157 in the third. Wabash got a three from Hampton and buckets from Thomas and Puckett to lead 37-33 after three. Point guard Claire Cromer would start to penetrate the
Southmont defense in the fourth, either being fouled or kicking it out for a bucket. Cromer hit 10 free throws in the quarter with Hampton and Puckett getting buckets to win game one 55-48, getting a shot a the regional title against Tipton. Lyndsie Thomas and Claire Cromer led Wabash with 14 points each. Sarah Puckett added 13, Kyleigh Hampton 12, Jaclyn Lewis 2. In the championship, Tipton got the

As fast as Wabash gained the momentum, Tipton took it away scoring 6 straight to end the quarter and led 25-19 at the half. Tipton stretched the lead to 28-19 to start the third before a Lewis bucket made it 28-21. Lyndsie Thomas hit two free throws after a Tipton bucket to make it 3023 when the Blue Devils started to play ball control.

Wabash County Historical Museum honors Wabash Rotary Club with temporary exhibit
by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com The Wabash Rotary Club is being recognized by the Wabash County Historical Museum with a temporary display in their mini gallery on the upper level. The display includes the many Rotary flags from around the country and the world that have been collected by the club over the years. “Rotary is international, and when you visit other clubs, you take a Wabash flag and exchange it with one of theirs,” said Art Conner, Wabash Rotary Club president and former Wabash High School Band Director. “The Signal Hill flag, I got that last April from the Signal Hill club in South Africa.” R o t a r y International has more than 2.1 million members worldwide. Each Rotary Club has its own custom felt banner with its name and district number on it. Every Rotary Club and District event uses flags and banners. These flags act as an impactful reminder of how farreaching the fellowship and service of Rotary is. The flags were discovered by Conner in the bottom of a closet near the Honeywell Center’s Crystal Room where the club meets. More than 100 flags in various conditions were discovered in a cardboard box, along with the club’s original charter, which is also displayed in the exhibit. Chief Business Officer for Wabash City Schools Jan Roland, a Rotary member for 15 years, worked to clean and restore the banners over the course of a month. The late Billy Mays would be proud, as a product for which he was the spokesman was employed to clean the soiled banners. “I divided them by primary color on the flag and then soaked them for 3 or 4 hours in OxiClean,” said Roland. “They were so badly damaged that I didn’t know what could really hurt them at that point. As you can see, the majority of them
came out really nice.” Roland let them air dry before ironing each one and preparing it for display at the museum. “They were pretty moldy from having water on them and from sitting in a box in the Honeywell Center for years, so
my biggest concern was getting the mold off,” said Roland. “Of all of them, only two were totally unsavable.” The flags will be on display at the museum through April. According to Wabash County Historical Museum Executive
Director Mitch Figert, the exhibit may stay much longer, as no exhibit has been scheduled to fill the space this summer. “It’s a great organization and this just sort of represents the international part of it,” said Conner.
JERRY AND LANA (BALL) LONG WILL CELEBRATE 50 years of marriage on March 2 with an open house from 2-5 p.m. at the Honeywell Center in the Honeywell Room. They were married on Feb. 29, 1964 in Lagro by Justice of the Peace, Russell Jones. The Longs have five children: Stephanie Stambaugh, Skyler Long, Susan Laferney, Sara Long and Samuel Long. Their grandchildren are Kenzie Thornsbury, Kassidy Stambaugh, Kasey Long, Kody Stambaugh, Kash Laferney, Kane Long, Kaylee Long, Kiptyn Haecker, Kedyrk Haecker and they have another grandchild due in August.

In fact, the most valuable tennis lessons have nothing to do with serves, volleys, overheads or lobs; the most valuable lessons teach us about life. One of the best lessons I have learned and try to pass on to others is that you should never equate losing with failure. I know I would hate life if I were deprived of trying; working for some objective within there lays the beauty of perfection. Yes, we all stumble at times and fall short, but that usually leads to eventual success. Welcoming obstacles in competition automatically increases the ability to find advantage in all the difficulties one meets in the course of one’s life. Working hard and trying to be your best: that’s what tennis and life have in common for me. Remember: there is always the possibility that some good will arise from an unfortunate situation.” PLEASE EMAIL YOUR NEWS AND INFORMATION to isaac.triplett@yahoo.c om, or call me at 260274-2261.

Youth for Christ to open new chapter said. “There are broken homes, drugs, kids not knowing any sense of love or discipline, just lost. “We felt something was missing.” The wheels of a spiritual presence within the system have been in motion for some time. Aaron McClary (Bachelor Creek) and Brandon Eaton (Wabash Friends), both youth ministers in the county, have been in the schools ministering, but both have obligations to their own groups and families. The North Manchester community has seen a resurgence of involved
youth as Campus Life, still in a relative infancy, is growing and reaching more and more teens. With several positive referrals, French was contacted and jumped at the opportunity serve, along with his wife Marissa. “Through my high school years, I made some bad choices, but God never gave up on me,” French said. “If there was an organization like Campus Life around, who knows what would have happened. “I believe that you must go where God is at work, and that’s for sure at Wabash High School.”
Josh Blossom, principal at Wabash High School, has past experience with Campus Life. “We moved to Marion when I was 10, and all growing up at then-college Wesleyan Church, J.C. Body shop was the place to be,” Blossom said. “As I think back at what life could have been without such a place, who knows what where I’d be today.” Youth for Christ is an international organization with missions reaching teens through schools, truancy situations, and more.

Niccum faces three felony charges
by Shaun Tilghman Deanna Niccum, 42, North Manchester, was arrested Monday, Feb. 17, on a warrant citing three alleged criminal offenses, including: Attempted Child Exploitation, a class C felony; Attempted Vicarious Sexual Gratification, a class D felony; and Child Solicitation, a class D felony. The arrest resulted from an investigation that began after one victim’s parents alerted the North Manchester Police Department of an incident that occurred earlier this month between Niccum and their child, according to the case summary. Officers from the NMPD took the next step by contacting the
Department of Child Services, as well as Wabash County Chief Deputy Prosecutor Bryan Michaud. On Feb. 14, following the determination of probable cause, Information and Affidavits of Probable Cause were filed, an arrest warrant was ordered, and bond was set at $12,500 surety / $250 cash. The Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department filed a Return of Warrant on Tuesday, Feb. 18, which indicated that NMPD officers had arrested Niccum at 1:24 p.m. the previous day. The initial hearing was also held on Feb. 18, during which time Niccum entered a preliminary plea of not guilty. Stefan Poling, of Roll Harter & Poling in Huntington, is representing the Defendant
(Niccum), while Wabash County Prosecutor William Hartley Jr. is representing the Plaintiff (State of Indiana) in the Wabash Circuit Court case presided over by The Honorable Robert McCallen III. Judge McCallen III then set the following: omnibus date is April 18, 2014; pretrial conference is June 2, 2014, at 1 p.m.; jury trial is June 24 and 25, 2014, at 9 a.m. Niccum and her counsel are also to appear June 24 at 8:30 a.m. in order to address preliminary matters. On Friday, the court approved a Motion to Transfer, filed by the sheriff due to overflow, and Niccum was subsequently transferred from Wabash County Jail to Miami County Jail.
time gifts or corporate partnerships—all very good ways of helping out. “And all monies collected stay right here in Wabash County.” French said, “It’s a great privilege to serve in Wabash High School. I’m excited about the opportunity and the chance to share the gospel with teens in the community.” For more information, or if interested in partnering in this local ministry, log onto the Youth For Christ website at w w w. f w a y f c . o r g .

ments for their prompt response to our hog house fire that occurred on Feb. 10. We are so appreciative of all the volunteers and their dedication to help in the extreme cold conditions that late night. They did an outstanding job in containing the blaze and minimizing the damage. Were it not for their training and leadership, we might have lost the entire barn. We are so very lucky to have such professional, well-trained, and dedicated volunteer firefighters in our community. Many, many thanks to the Urbana, Roann, Chester, Noble, Pleasant, Lagro and Liberty Fire Departments. May God Bless each of you.

FRIENDS OF ST. PATRICK’S, a small group working to restore St. Patrick’s Oratory in Lagro, accepts a $2,500 check from Monsanto representatives as part of the company’s America’s Farmers Grow Communities program. Pictured from left: Daniel Stauffer, Roxy Roser, Nancy Fearnow, Steven Fearnow, Janet Poole, Peggy Coppler, Tom Driscoll, Ember Christle, Tim Cristle, and Dale Stouffer. “We just loved this building in Lagro,” said Roxy Roser, whose family nominated the group, which will use the money to restore the building’s deteriorating exterior. “We think it’s really amazing how a group of local people have come together to preserve, restore, and maintain this building.” “We’re really happy to do this,” Monsanto representative Dale Stouffer added. “For us, living here close, it’s really cool to have it go somewhere we know and we like, so it’s fun.” (photo by Eric Stearley)
PRAY FOR JUDGE BOBBY MCCALLEN! Please: pray in the name of Jesus the Christ, for young [Judge] Bobby McCallen to repent, and return the $50,000.00 cash bond, posted to gain my release from jail on Thanksgiving Day, regarding the Celotex property, which I have NO; nor have I ever had any ownership, care, custody or control of.
