Community Mayor Vanlandingham proclaims Nov. 28 mourns loss of “Tommy and Trystin Music Day” “good-natured” officer Officer David Rigney touched many lives

by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com On Monday, Nov. 24, Mayor Robert Vanlandingham issued a proclamation during the city council meeting establishing this Friday, Nov. 28, as Tommy and Trystin Music Day in Wabash. The announcement was met with applause and giant smiles on the faces of the honorees. The father/son duo represented the United States in the 2014 TAFISA World Martial Arts Games in Vancouver, Canada in September. Tommy, 38, brought home a medal of each color, while Trystin, 10, won a gold medal, as well as a bronze. “It was pretty nerve-racking,” Trystin said about the competition. Mayor Vanlandingham contacted Tommy last week, asking that he and Trystin attend Monday’s city council meeting. “It floored me,” said Tommy. “I was like, ‘Wow, we need to go to council meeting.’”

Local church looks toward Africa

By Shaun Tilghman News Editor – North Manchester News-Journal Just over a week has passed since the accident that claimed the life of North Manchester Police Officer David Rigney, and in the wake of tragedy, communities across Wabash County have joined together not only in mourning the loss, but also in celebrating his life. The 39-year-old LaFontaine native was off-duty when the crash occurred last Monday afternoon. Rigney was heading south on State Road 15 when his SUV fishtailed and crossed into the northbound lane, where it was struck by a school bus, before returning to the southbound lane and being struck by another vehicle – he was pronounced dead at the scene. Sgt. Brian Enyeart, a veteran of the North Manchester Police Department, said the loss was devastating on many different levels. “People outside of law enforcement

By Adam Smith By their appearances, no one would think that Anne Baraza and Carol Berg are sisters, yet they have lovingly referred to each other as “sis” for years. The two women first came into contact almost six years ago in 2009 when Berg, the website editor for the First United Methodist Church, received an email from Baraza asking for help. They met for the first time in person little over a week ago, and on Nov. 23, Baraza gave a presentation at the church. Baraza is the CEO of the Riruta United Women Empowerment Programme (RUWEPO) as well as the founder and director of the Children of Africa Hope Mission School. The school is a complementary school for disadvantaged and orphaned children in Ng’ando, a slum area of Nairobi, Kenya. She said that when she emailed Berg, they were very desperate to keep the school running and sent messages to several United

THE PAPER 2 State Board of Education approves A-F school accountability grades www.thepaperofwabash.com

The Indiana State Board of Education (SBOE) recently approved the A-F school accountability grades for Hoosier schools, noting a continuing trend with

more schools earning A and B letter grades for their educational successes. District 6 SBOE member Dr. Brad Oliver said that while the A-F system isn’t perfect, its

November 26, 2014

intentional focus on improving achievement has resulted in more schools with A’s and B’s—and fewer schools with failing grades. “A-F is but one

measure of the great things that continue to show improvement in our schools,” said Oliver. “Graduation rates are up, ISTEP scores are up, NAEP scores are up and

school grades provide the ability for our educators to communicate to their communities about the hard work that is happening within their buildings.” The Board approved the Department of Education’s (DOE) recommended letter grades for schools and corporations. DOE staff will reevaluate data from four schools who spoke before the Board today regarding concerns over errors in the appeals process, and the board will consider corrections at its Dec. 3 meeting if the DOE verifies the accuracy of data provided today. Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz promised a review of the Department’s internal appeals processes, and Sarah O’Brien asked for a report at the December board meeting regarding potential improvements, including the consideration of the DOE adding a chief compliance officer. School administrators from West Noble Schools, South Vermillion County Schools, and the MSD of Wabash County raised issues with the Board regarding information submitted to the DOE which was not considered prior to the DOE’s denial of the schools’ appeals. Each brought separate concerns regarding the department’s process, and all expressed frustra-

tion at the lack of information and engagement from the DOE throughout the appeals process. Several board members also were distressed about the DOE’s lack of customer service, including lack of timely correspondence and follow-up with schools when easily detectible and fixable errors were found in school reporting data. “Too much depends on letter grades to get it wrong,” said Melissa Briscoe, Chief Academic Officer for Wabash MSD. “We are here today to bring an error to the attention of the Board and ensure an accurate grade is given to the high schools within the district.” MSD of Wabash schools received the following grades: *Northfield High School, C, compared to a B rating in 2013. *Southwood High School, B, compared to a C rating in 2013. * S o u t h wo o d Elementary School, A, compared to an A rating in 2013. *Sharp Creek Elementary School, C, compared to a B rating in 2013. *Metro North Elementary School, C, compared to a C rating in 2013. Dave Chapman, Superintendent of South Vermillion Schools noted that his community felt that the DOE’s oversight was an injustice. He noted that he personally emailed DOE administrators on

multiple occasions and did not get a response. “People told me not to come down here today, but I told them when good people have the right information, they can make the right decisions,“ said Dennis Van Duyne, Superintendent at West Noble Schools. “These grades are important—they impact raises, morale, teacher evaluations, and communicate to the community what schools are doing every day.” Responding to the SBOE’s directive from the Oct. 15 meeting, the DOE assigned a revised letter grade to eight schools due to identified calculation errors in order to appropriately reflect the schools’ performance. During its meeting, the Board also addressed four atypical schools which needed a differentiated formula to accurately determine accountability grades, and adopted a motion that the elementary school/middle school (EMS) model would be applied to those four schools due to their high school’s lacking sufficient data points. “It’s wrong that a school is penalized because it does not fit a cookie-cutter approach on school configuration,” said Tony Walker, Region 1 SBOE Member. “The Board needs to look at schools individually and see how best to (continued on page 3)

A final contract still needs to be developed between Marzano and IPS for services to Broad Ripple Magnet High School and John Marshall Community High School. SBOE Committee on School Turnarounds members advised the Board that the new contract should reflect best practices on roles and responsibilities for lead partner. The SBOE also received an update from Superintendent Glenda Ritz, who reported the Gary Community Schools had reached a payment schedule with its transportation provider to ensure continued bus service to Gary students. She noted discussions were also underway to manage bus service for the next school year. Additionally, the SBOE reviewed a memo from the DOE concerning its coordination with the Indiana State Department of Health to develop guidance documents for schools regarding the Ebola virus. The Board also approved DOE-recommended 2014-15 testing windows for

ACCUPLACER, NCSC ( A l t e r n a t e Assessment), and WIDA (English language proficiency) assessments and approved new rule language for special education and related services by choice schools. Prior to adjournment, Dr. Damian Betenbenner of the National Center for the Improvement of E d u c a t i o n a l Assessment provided an overview of growth models and his analysis of the school accountability panel’s new A-F recommendation.

Community Foundation of Wabash County continues support of free medical clinic Founded in 2011 as the first free medical clinic in Wabash County, 85 Hope helps disadvantaged Wabash County adults meet their urgent healthcare needs, receive medications, and improve their overall health. The need for a free clinic became evident following a needs assessment that determined roughly 27% or 9,000 residents in our

county were without health insurance. Startup funds for the clinic included an unrestricted grant from the Good Deeds endowment at the C o m m u n i t y Foundation. As a non-profit organization, 85 Hope relies heavily on grants, donations, and volunteers to support its continued operations. Designed to meet Wabash

County’s ever changing and most pressing needs, the Good Deeds endowment at the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County continues to award grants to 85 Hope to cover clinic expenses and the cost of referrals and special services. On behalf of 85 Hope, Executive Director Laura Helm applies annually for

grants from the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County. “The C o m m u n i t y Foundation is a great source of revenue, but also a source of information. They have given support towards establishing 85 Hope, helping to spread the word about the clinic, and giving guidance on how we can raise money and penetrate in to the community,”

says Helm. “Thanks to the most recent grant from the C o m m u n i t y Foundation, we were able to send thirteen patients for specialized care.” A former 85 Hope client, who has since become eligible for Medicare, was diagnosed with cancer during a routine checkup at the clinic. Luckily, she was able to seek and receive

the treatment she needed to beat her disease. She attests that 85 Hope saved her life. Unlike a walk-in clinic, where a patient may be seen only once, 85 Hope focuses on long-term care and establishing a relationship with patients. Primary care physicians work with the patients over time to improve their overall health. Wabash County resi-

Community mourns loss of “good-natured” officer...continued from front page

RIGNEY’S PATROL CAR has been parked in front of the North Manchester Public Safety Building since the accident, and members of the community have adorned it with flowers in memory of Officer Rigney. (photo by Shaun Tilghman) ing Rigney, not only as a prime example of a good officer, but also as a caring friend and role model. “Obviously, we had a lot of work conversations, but most of my conversations with Dave focused on family – my family or his family,” he explained. “With my wife working here, my kids would stop in every now and again with her,” Enyeart continued, “and he would treat my kids like they were his kids. He was just so goodnatured; he could be having the worst day, but he would do his best to make sure you were having your best day. My job dictates that I’m not around here very much, so it felt good knowing that when my wife and kids were in here he was keeping an eye out for them, and serving as another positive male role model for my son.” “When it came down to it though, he just did his job. He did everything right, he did it by the book, and he did it the way it was supposed to be done, but he was also respectful. Yeah, he might be taking you to jail, but he was respectful about it. A lot of that comes down to the type of man he was – very polite and very honest.” Dispatcher Angela Waddle added, “As a dispatcher, we’re here by ourselves a lot, and he was always one that would make sure we had our breaks or made sure we had lunch, supper, or whatever it was. I worked with him for the whole two years that he was here – we both worked the odd shifts – and he talked

a lot about his family.” After graduating from Southwood High School in 1994, Rigney attended Ball State University for two years before working at Ford Meter Box for 12 years and then Midwest Eye Consultants for three years. Eventually, he landed a position with the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department Reserves and really enjoyed it, so he began looking for a full-time job in law enforcement.

Olsen continued. “It was just down the street from where I live, so I was one of the first to arrive on the scene. Officer Keith Whiting and another officer (David Rigney) were at the front door banging and kicking at it to get the attention of anyone that might be in there – luckily there wasn’t – and I took some pictures of them as they did this. So, you might say I photographed David before I met him. “A short time later, when things calmed down, Officer Whiting introduced me to Officer Rigney. He thanked me for retiring and gave me a big smile. I could tell right away he was a good-natured man that wasn’t afraid of doing the job. During these last two years, I have met up with

don’t understand the bond that law enforcement officers have – it’s more than just as coworkers or even friends, we truly are ‘brothers in blue’,” Enyeart said. “There is a lot of stuff that is easier to talk about with other officers than with other people, because they just don’t understand. With Dave, you always knew if you needed anything you could call him and he would be there to help you out.” North Manchester Police Chief Jeff Perry added, “If we had something come up with the department we could always call Dave, he was always one that would change his plans to come in and help. Of all the times we needed him to work, I think there were only maybe three times that he just couldn’t get out of what he had planned. We had just moved him back to third shift, which is where he wanted to be, but he was always out during the day shift looking for something to do, and that’s something that needs to be done more often. “Dave fit in well with the group of officers here. A lot of times he would go out of his way to poke fun at some of the other officers. When some guys would poke fun in that same way it wouldn’t go over so well, but it didn’t seem to matter with Dave. Everyone always knew that he was doing it in fun. He always had a big smile on his face, and he was always talking about his family, because with him, family really did always come first.” Enyeart echoed that sentiment by describ-

hired full-time a month later when the retirement of 27-year veteran Steve Olsen became effective. Olsen, who created and maintains the North Manchester Real Time page on Facebook, said he couldn’t believe it when he heard it was Rigney that died in the accident. “I was shocked,” Olsen explained, in a post on Facebook. “I had been listening to the police traffic working that scene in Wabash, as I had heard there was a school bus involved. The children on the bus were not injured though; I am sure David is glad about that.” Olsen then provided the details involving Rigney being hired as his replacement and went on to describe their first interaction. “I had heard many good things about him, as I had done his background reference check when he applied for the job, but I had never met him. After I had left the department and started this page, I was at a trailer fire taking pictures,”

Local church looks toward Africa...continued from front page Methodist churches in the US. They were asking each church if they could send aid, and one of them happened to be the First United Methodist Church in Wabash. At first, Berg was able to get the church to send $70 of aid per month, but that number has grown to $200 per month. “We would really like to be able to feed those kids reasonably each month,” she said. In 2008, fourteen members of RUWEPO came up with the idea of forming a school. These members were mothers themselves and wanted to help the children they had society neglect. Baraza said when people think about the slums, they think, “Those people are ignorant, those people are poor.” They don’t try to help them out of their situation, she

CAROL BERG SITS WITH ANNE BARAZA following the Nov. 23 program. Berg has been in contact with Baraza for six years and convinced First United Methodist Church to support Baraza’s organizations. (photo by Adam Smith) said. The school opened in January 2009. The school’s first facility was a small, rundown building in a residential area. Various grades were forced to hold class in the same room. “The preschool, ages three to five, were to use one room, but you face different directions so that you don’t make noise.

These ones are facing north, in the same room these ones are facing south, these ones are facing east and learning is going on,” Baraza said. Beyond that, grades one through three and grades four through eight have similar arrangements. In December 2012, the government threatened to shut down the school

because of the poor state of the building they were working in, but thanks to the help of the Center for the Church & Global AIDS, they were able to raise the money needed to build a new facility a month later. Baraza said it’s “heaven on Earth, a complete change for us.”

Local church looks toward Africa...continued from page 6 Funding remains a constant problem for the school, however. Many students attend the school, because they are supposed to receive two meals per day, but the school often faces a lack of food. This is not a problem that only the students must deal with, as many members of the faculty do not have enough to eat at home and must find their meals at the school. Sometimes the faculty don’t even show up for work because they cannot get paid for their services and must find another way to get money. Currently, it has been eight months since any of the faculty have been paid.

It is also difficult for the school to provide proper educational materials to every student. They must rely on some improvised methods when there are shortcomings. Students without exercise books must do their school work with chalk on the ground. One issue that RUWEPO is especially concerned about is that of HIV/AIDS. Seven of the sixteen faculty members of the school are HIV positive. On the other hand, only thirteen of the 157 current students are HIV positive, but many have had family members with the virus. Baraza said there is a stigma against HIV/AIDS

victims, and that the school aims to create a community that accepts them. The organization offers services that are intended to combat the spread of the virus. Baraza said the school hopes to establish their own affordable health facility in the near future. For the moment, community members often have to travel far and pay unrealistic prices to get medical treatment for such diseases as HIV/AIDS. The school also would like to purchase at least five acres of land on which to build a boarding facility for their students. Many of the students come

from uninhabitable homes where they face problems like poor living conditions and sexual abuse. Currently the school keeps the students until 5 p.m. to shelter them as long as they can from these situations. “We know these are our leaders. We are naturally leaders. These are the leaders that are going to turn around the wheel in the slums, the wheel in the rural areas, the wheel in Kenya, the wheel in Africa. These are the leaders,” Baraza said about the students. When Baraza leaves Wabash, she will visit Dayton, Ohio and Denver to speak with more churches, high

I know that the good work we do would not be possible without the help of the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County, and for that, I am grateful, too.” For 60 years the C o m m u n i t y Foundation has put income generated from donor’s investments to work in the community. Grants have helped to strengthen education, support the arts, promote civic life, protect the environment, and ensure strong health and

social services. To date, there are 260 permanently endowed funds and 22 non-permanent funds. Total assets are more than $30 million and more than $2.2 million in unrestricted grants have been made to Wabash County, Indiana.

Dec. 15 4th grade Christmas program at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. WORLDWIDE HOUR OF CODE: The Hour of Code is a “one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics.” It is held for one week - Dec. 8 - 14. “The Hour of Code is organized by code.org, a public 501c3 non-profit dedicated to expanding participation in computer science by making it available in more schools.” Last year it reached tens of millions of students in 180+ countries. One-hour tutorials are available in over 30 languages. It is designed for ages 4 to 104 - no experience needed! The idea is that every student should have the opportunity to learn computer science as it helps nurture problem-solving skills, logic and creativity. Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Boys and Girls Clubs of America and the College Board are partners with Hour of Code. There are prizes for every organizer. One school in every state (and Washington DC) will win $10,000 worth of technology.

Stirring it up with Angie Baer

A STUDENT AT LITTLE FRIENDS DAY CARE gets his eyes tested by Beverly Reid and Bonnie Bales from the Pierceton Lions Club, assisted by Urbana Lions Marvin Mast and Joe Adams on Nov. 13. The testing is done through an Indiana Lions program called Operation Kidsight. It is a quick and easy photo screening procedure that can detect most problems that cause poor vision in young children. The photographs of the eyes are sent to the IU School of Optometry where they are reviewed to identify subtle abnormalities that may indicate an undetected vision problem. If there is a problem the parents are notified with a recommendation to seek followup with a local optometrist.

With four Grandchildren running around, things can get a little crazy at my house on Thanksgiving. It’s a good crazy though, the kind of crazy I wouldn’t trade for anything. My children are grown now with families of their own, but I cherish our time we spend together during the holidays making memories. ANGIE BEAR I try to play it smart when planning and hosting holiday meals. Keeping it simple and being careful not to pile extra expectations on myself makes for a stress-free dinner. Hopefully, just a few pointers will help you too. 1. Don’t be afraid to delegate. It’s okay to ask guests to bring a side dish. 2. Plan ahead. Decide upon the menu, make a grocery list, and do all of your shopping three days before the big event. Set your table and do all of the prep work the day before. 3. Don’t fuss and worry over small details. Your home doesn’t have to be perfectly clean. Trust me, your guests won’t notice, nor will they care. Remember, being together is what counts. Take time to thank God for his blessings. When writing this article, I just couldn’t decide which recipe to give you. I narrowed it down to two of my favorites, then decided to submit them both. This recipe for turkey noodle soup is a great way to use up leftover turkey. The dill weed gives it a wonderful flavor; it’s such a good, hearty soup. Thanksgiving just wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without sweet potatoes baked in cream on the menu. It’s almost like a dessert. You will never put marshmallows on sweet potato casserole again after trying this. So, from my table to yours, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Wabash Carnegie Public Library announces 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten The Wabash Carnegie Public Library is excited to announce a new program for parents of young children, from birth through kindergarten. On Nov. 24, the library began 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten, a program that engages parents in a commitment to read 1,000 books to their child before they enter kindergarten. The program is made possible by a grant from the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County and will be available for all residents of Wabash County, whether or not they are library cardholders. The program will be available at all five of the libraries in Wabash County: The Wabash Carnegie (continued on page 20)

THE WABASH CARNEGIE PUBLIC LIBRARY is one of many local libraries participating in the “1,000 Books Before Kindergarten” program. This provides incentives for parents to reach books to their toddler children regularly, which has been shown to dramatically improve a child’s ability to learn to read later on. (photo provided)

Public hearing scheduled for proposed river otter trapping season The public can comment on a proposal that would open a trapping season for river otters in Indiana at a Dec. 11 public hearing in the Hendricks County town of Plainfield. The hearing, conducted by the Indiana Natural R e s o u r c e s Commission, is at 5:30 p.m. at Plainfield Public Library, 1120 Stafford Road. The Natural Resources Commission will conduct the public hearing on proposed rule changes that include the following: — Opening a trapping season for river otters that includes

strict limits on the number of otters that could be taken; when, where, and how otters can be trapped; and mandatory registration of harvested otters. A temporary rule would be implemented annually by the director that would specify the counties that would be open to trapping and the statewide quota. — Allowing the sale of river otters, including their hides and parts, as well as squirrel hides. — Making changes to fur buyer license requirements, including changing the reporting date and specifying

requirements for the proper disposal of carcasses. You can view the proposed new rule language at www.in.gov/nrc/2377 .htm. Public comments also can be submitted to the NRC through that webpage.

THE PAPER November 26, 2014

Nominations sought for Trails Advisory Board The Indiana Department of Natural Resources seeks nominations for five openings on the state’s Indiana Trails Advisory Board (TAB) for 2015. Nominees must be involved with a trails-oriented organization that represents one of the following user groups: bicyclists, higher e d u c at i o n / h e a l t h , off-road motorcyclists, parks and recreation agencies, and water trail users. Board members

are expected to serve a three-year term starting March 1, 2015, and attend quarterly meetings. TAB meetings are held on the first Thursday of March, September and December, and on the last Thursday in June. All meetings start at 3 p.m. Locations vary throughout the state. The 15-member voluntary TAB advises DNR director Cameron F. Clark on trails-related issues. Having a TAB is also

required for the state to receive funding from the Recreational Trails Program through the U.S. Department of T ranspor tation’s Federal Highway Administration. The state uses these funds to acquire and develop multi-use trails for both motorized and non-motorized use. Nominations will be accepted by the DNR Division of Outdoor Recreation from Dec. 1 through Jan. 2.

Public Library, the North Manchester Public Library, the Roann Public Library, the Troyer Memorial Library in LaFontaine, and the Lagro Comets Library. The program provides a book bag, reading log, stickers, and book giveaways as incentives along the way. Simply register at any of the county libraries, read together with your child, and record the titles of each book read. After each 100 books, you may bring the completed log to the library to receive a small prize. After 500 books, your child may choose a book to keep. Once the 1,000book goal is complete, then visit the library to pick up a completion certificate, another new book, an invitation to a 1,000 Book Party, and an awe-

some jumpstart on success in school!

Although reading 1,000 books may sound overwhelming, if you and your child read only three books a day, you will complete this goal in less than a year! Reading aloud to your child is the single most important activity you can do to prepare your child to learn to read. It will stimulate language and thinking skills, build memory, curiosity, vocabulary and motivation to learn, and encourages positive feelings about reading later in life. For more information, you may contact the Youth Services Department at the Wabash Carnegie Public Library at 260563-2972 or read more on our website at www.wabash.lib.in.us .

Autumn Ridge announces new memory care facilitator Autumn Ridge Rehabilitation Centre is proud to introduce and welcome our new Memory Care

Facilitator Lindsey LeBlanc. Lindsey has always had a passion for dementia care and is excited to continue her career

here at Autumn Ridge. She has been working with loved ones with Alzheimer’s for over 10 years, initially

starting out as an activities assistant and continuing as an activities director and social services director. Lindsey has been with American Senior Communities for over 4 years and the Autumn Ridge staff is proud to have her as a part of the team. “I was once told by a very wise person that life is nothing more than merely a culmination of many moments, and that it is up to us to make the most out of these moments that we have been given,” said LeBlanc. “The people that have taught me the most about how to do this, how to seize each and every moment that is at hand, have been from people that have a diagnosis

of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. This mere life lesson has/is my driving force and my inspiration when developing the day programming at Auguste’s Cottage, Autumn Ridge’s memory care unit. “Our person-centered care philosophy affords us the opportunity to build these meaningful moments with our residents. Life is too short and we never know when the moment at hand may be our last. I consider this approach in every aspect of the duties I carry out as Autumn Ridge’s Memory Care Facilitator. “We are more than a couple of people that work on a secure cottage in a

LINDSEY LEBLANC HAS JOINED AUTUMN RIDGE as their Memory Care Specialist. Lindsey’s work focuses on caring for patients and family members affected by Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. (photo provided) long-term care facility. We are a family. I could never do what I do without the help of our staff on the cottage. It is a learning process, and it’s a process that I have devoted my life to. If we are able to help produce a smile, help a person laugh, be the shoulder to lean on, the empathetic ear to listen, or trigger a memory that provides the resident with a positive and meaningful moment, our lives have also inadvertently been positively affected. It is almost like a chain reaction that positively affects all of those involved. “We also view the loved ones of our residents in the same manor. If we are able to give peace of mind to a worried loved one, be the shoulder for the loved ones to lean on, and also be a resource for those many questions that arise when a person receives a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, then I would say that that would complete the full circle of person centered care that we, as a proud member of American Senior Communities, believe in. It is important to know that you are not alone, whether you are a person with the disease or a loved one directly affected by the disease. There are millions of people out there that are affected by the disease as well.

“Being the Memory Care Facilitator of Autumn Ridge, I have been able to develop a partnership with the Senior Center and lead a support group for both the person who has Alzheimer’s disease or dementia and all of their loved ones. We meet on the second Thursday of every month at the Senior Center at 6 p.m. Being able to lead this support group has added even more meaning to my career. We have a free dinner that begins at 6 p.m., and the support group gathers after. Together as a group, the loved ones are able to express their feelings that they have experienced or are currently experiencing and hear other loved ones stories and insight, providing hope through the unknown journey. “It is a scary thing to feel like you are all alone in facing a disease that is so mysterious and filled with many unknowns. I am present in the circle to merely promote conversation. The topics that we talk about and share depend completely on what the group wants to talk about and what the current group’s needs are. I would like to reach out to the community and spread the word that you are no longer alone!”

November 26, 2014

Members of Emmanuel Free Will Baptist Church packed shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child this year. Marlisa Butcher coordinated the collection. “Our family has filled shoeboxes for a few years, but I wanted to get our Church involved this year. We collected a total of 178 boxes, and hope to see it grow every year,”

said Butcher. O p e r a t i o n Christmas Child is the largest Christmas project of its kind. It uses gift-filled shoeboxes to share God’s love in a tangible way with needy children around the world. Since 1993, Samaritan’s Purse, an organization founded by Franklin Graham, son of Billy Graham, has collected and

delivered more than 113 million gift-filled shoeboxes to children

in over 150 countries through Operation Christmas Child. In

2014, Samaritan’s Purse hopes to collect enough shoebox gifts

Masked gunman flees Tractor Supply Company On Nov. 23 at approximately 6:30 p.m., the Wabash Police Department received a report of a masked person with a gun inside the Tractor Supply Company store on Cass St. Wabash Police report that upon their arrival at TSC, the suspect was no longer on at the scene. Wabash Police state that an employee observed the masked suspect near the back of the store and subsequently called 911. The suspect allegedly

Nancy LaBonte speaks to Teen Moms Teen Moms met on Monday, Nov. 17 at Bachelor Creek Church of Christ. The meal was provided by members of Stan Leland’s community group from Bachelor Creek. Mrs. LaBonte shared insights from her life experiences, which included involvement with drugs in her early adulthood, a time of being a single mom, suffering the consequences of poor financial decisions, and how she turned her life around through determination to make a better life for her children. Her main message to the moms was that one can overcome any obstacle in life and to cherish each moment with your children. During the craft time the moms decorated glass candleholders. The next meeting will be held on Monday, Dec. 1. Any persons interested in joining Teen Moms may register at the LIFE Center or by calling 260-563-7275.

displayed a gun to the employee. Police believe the suspect fled the scene after being seen by the employee. There were no injuries during the incident, and no arrest has been made. Major Matt Bruss reminds all citizens to use extra caution during the holiday season. Bruss further states that criminals are usually more predominant during the Christmas season. Anyone having information about this incident is urged to call the Wabash Police at 260-563-1111. This incident was investigated by Captain Bob Pilgrim, Sergeant Matt Benson, Officer Dan Henderson, Wabash County Sheriff ’s Deputies, and an Indiana Conservation Officer.

to reach another 10 million children. More than 500,000 volunteers worldwide, with more than 100,000 of those in the United States, are involved in collecting, shipping, and distributing shoebox gifts. Individuals, families, churches, and groups fill empty shoeboxes with gifts of toys, school supplies, hygiene items, and note of encouragement. During National Collection Week, Samaritan’s Purse will collect the gift filled shoeboxes at more than 4,000 dropoff sites in all 50 states. Samaritan’s Purse will deliver the gifts to children in

Lady Squires pick up first win in home opener, second on Carter buzzer beater by Gary Andrews The Manchester Lady Squires were at home for the first game of the season Friday against Mississinewa. The Lady Squires used a strong defense in the second half, holding the Indians to just 8 second-half points on their way to a 33-21 win. Manchester took a 2-0 lead on two Celina Carter free throws and led 4-2 after a Bailey Sewell bucket before the Indians scored seven straight to end the quarter, leading the Squires 94 after one. Manchester got the first bucket of the second quarter, which was a three from Rae Bedke to make it 9-7 when Mississinewa scored 4 straight to open a 13-7 lead. Celina Carter then hit two free throws, and the Squires got a late bucket from Cierra Carter to close the gap to 13-11 at halftime. Manchester would

make some adjustments at the half, coming out and owning the second half. The Lady Squires would score the first 10 points of the third quarter with Cierra Carter getting it started. Celina Carter would then score, followed by two Bailey Sewell buckets and one from Rae Bedke to lead 21-13. Mississinewa would chip away at the Manchester lead and had it cut to 25-21 when Tiffany Johnson grabbed and offensive rebound, putting it back up and in right before the buzzer to give Manchester a 27-21 lead with a quarter to go. Dominating on both ends of the floor, the Lady Squires did what seemed almost impossible in the fourth quarter by holding the Indians scoreless. Manchester got buckets from Cierra Carter, Celina Carter and Drew

Thompson to win their first game of the year 33-21. L e a d i n g Manchester was Cierra Carter and Celina Carter with eight points each. Bailey Sewell added six, and Rae Bedke had five. Ellie Milam, Tiffany Johnson and Drew Thompson each scored two. The Manchester junior varsity fell to Mississinewa 30-27. Leading the Lady Squires was Erika Kendall and Sydney Day with 10 points each. Bethany Collett added five, and Kiera Stacy had two. The following day, the team hit the road, traveling to Winamac and winning 26-24 on a Cierra Carter buzzer beater. The Lady Squires led 17-12 at the half before ”the shot” gave Manchester their second straight win. The Lady Squires got buckets from Cierra Carter, Celina Carter, Rae Bedke and

Drew Thompson in the first quarter, leading Winamac 8-4. Celina Carter would score five points in the second quarter, with the Squires also getting buckets from Rae Bedke and Ellie Milam to stretch their lead to 17-12 at the half. The third quarter had just 7 total points scored, with Manchester winning the quarter 4-3 putting the total at 21-15 with a quarter to go. Winamac would out-score Manchester 9-5 in the fourth and had the scored tied when Cierra Carter hit a lay up with one second left for the win. Cierra and Celina Carter led the Lady Squires with seven points each. Rae Bedke added four, while Drew Thompson, Tiffany Johnson, Ellie Milam, and Bailey Sewell each added two.

Lady Norse capture Northfield Invite by Gary Andrews The Northfield Lady Norse captured their own tourney Saturday, defeating Concord 43-25 and Fairfield 42-34. Southwood also played in the tourney, falling to Fairfield 6261 and defeating

Concord 42-37. The Lady Knights played Northwestern Friday night, which gave them a three game tour in 24 hours. Northfield got the day started by taking on Concord. Perhaps a little flat, the Norse struggled in the first

quarter as Concord led 9-8 after one. The tide changed to start the second quarter as the Norse got buckets from Arie Kennedy, Payton Thomson and Jacklyn Peas. Abby Keaffaber drained a three as the Norse defense held Concord

scoreless in a 17-0 run to lead 25-9 at the half. Northfield kept their momentum in the second half, winning the third quarter 13-5 before losing the fourth quarter in a game that was already decided for the 43-25 win. Payton Thomson led a balanced scoring attack with 11 points. Cherish Leming added nine, with Abby Keaffaber adding eight, Jacklyn Peas adding seven, and Arie Kennedy adding six. Ashley Koch put two on the board. Southwood would play game two against undefeated Fairfield, giving the Falcons all they wanted. On the back of Brooke Elliott, the Lady Knights led 10-8 after the first stop, with Elliott scoring six points. Coach Dallas Duggan would go deep on his bench in the second quarter, trying to preserve stamina with the Falcons, who like to push the ball, getting scoring from six different players. Brooke Elliott led the charge with six points, with Katie Stouffer adding five and Kassidy

Wabash County High School Sports on Wabash WebTV By Bill Barrows High School basketball in Wabash County has begun on the girl’s side. The boys get started this week. This season looks to be very interesting and I’m sure will provide its share of excitement as we journey to the months of February and March. T r a d i t i o n a l l y, girls’ games are scheduled for the Tuesday prior to Thanksgiving, with the boys playing on Wednesday. With that in mind, here are the matchups for the holiday week. On Tuesday, the Lady Norse host Kokomo, the Lady Knights host Oak Hill in a Atwood putting up four as the Lady Knights led 32-26 at the half. Fairfield would have the hot hand to start the third quarter, scoring 9 of the first 11 points to grab a 35-34 lead, but the Knights answered with buckets from Stouffer, Elliott and Atwood to grab the lead back at 41-35. Southwood would outscore Fairfield 5-3 down the stretch and led 46-38 with a quarter to go. The Lady Knights, showing signs of tired legs in the fourth, held off the Falcons for half of the fourth quarter before the pace went Fairfield’s way and they grabbed a three point lead. With 10.6 seconds

border battle, and the Lady Apaches play host to MadisonGrant where the Wabash WebTV team will be calling the action. Join Rick Harness and Jim Landrum for all of that action at 7 p.m. On Wednesday evening before the turkeys are roasted, basketball takes center stage as Manchester travels to Mississinewa. Southwood travels to Northfield for the traditional Metro Matchup and Wabash hosts Oak Hill. These are season-opening games for all four schools. Join the Harness boys, Rick and Tim for the call of the remaining, Elliott hit one free throw to make it 62-61, then fouled to stop the clock. Fairfield missed both free throws and the Knights had one more shot. After getting the ball across half court, Southwoood called time out to set up a play with 1.8 seconds left with the shot being just long in a 6261 defeat. Brooke Elliott led the Knights with 20 points. Kassidy Atwood added 14, Katie Stouffer put up 12, Makenna Dawes added five, and Ashley Parson added four. Taylor Heath, Haley Heath, and Aleesha Phillips put up two each. After a 2 1/2 hour break, the Knights

would take the floor again to take on Concord. Running on fumes, the Knights struggled for three quarters, before a second wind in the fourth gave Southwood the win. The shooting struggled for the Knights as they connected just four times in the first and trailed 10-8 after one. Concord would outscore Southwood 5-3 in the second, as the lone Knight bucket came from Brooke Elliott. Southwood trailed 15-11 at the half. The Knight offense warmed up a little in the third, but Concord was smelling blood and continued to push the Knights, winning (continued on page 28)

THE PAPER 28 SPORTS Mayor Vanlandingham proclaims Nov. 28 “Tommy Cromer cited as IBCA/Subway Player and Trystin Music Day”...continued from front page www.thepaperofwabash.com

Tommy and Trystin came into the meeting unsure about what to expect, but they knew it had something to do with their recent accomplishments in the world of martial arts. “We had been training for a little over two years for this one event,” said Tommy. “The format was just like the Olympics. You know, the Olympics doesn’t hold martial arts anymore. They’ve kicked all of the martial arts out of the official Olympics, so this was the very first World Olympic Games, the first of its kind.” The event featured hundreds of competitors from 16 countries and drew an audience of nearly 5,000. Contestants were divided into categories based on their age, weight, and experience, measured in belt colors and degrees. Tommy won his gold medal in weapons, a silver medal in contact, and a bronze in grappling. Trystin won a gold medal in weapons and a bronze medal in contact. The Musics train at the Wabash Valley Shuri-ryu Karate Academy under Sensei Mike Castro. Shuri-ryu is a martial arts system with roots on the Japanese island of Okinawa, where Tommy was stationed during his service in the

November 26, 2014

Proclamation Office of Mayor State of Indiana City of Wabash WHEREAS:

Tommy Music, age 38, and Trystin, age 10, are Wabash citizens who study Shuri-ryu Karate at Wabash Valley Shuri-ryu Academy;

WHEREAS:

Two years ago Tommy and Trystin were recruited for the United States Martial Arts Karate Team;

WHEREAS:

Tommy and Trystin competed in the international karate games in Vancouver, Canada Sept. 5-7, 2014, where Trystin won gold in weapons, bronze in contact, and Tommy won the gold medal in weapons, silver in contact, and bronze in grappling;

WHEREAS:

Tommy and Trystin have represented the Wabash Valley Shuri-ryu Karate Academy and the City of Wabash in the United States of America, with great distinction, and bringing honor to themselves, their team, and the communities that they represent;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Robert Vanlandingham, Mayor of the City of Wabash, hereby proclaim November 28, 2014 Tommy and Trystin Music Day in Wabash, Indiana, and do further proclaim that they shall always be Honorary Citizens of the City of Wabash, Indiana.

Marines. “We’re so lucky that we have Sensei Castro here in Wabash, who has a sport, this type of martial arts, that means a lot to me,” said Tommy. The Musics have been training for six years. Trystin holds a third degree brown belt, while Tommy holds a first degree brown belt, the highest level short of a black belt. With their medals in hand and their Team USA jackets on, they waited anxiously as the coun-

cil meeting began. With no other business, Mayor Va n l a n d i n g h a m issued the proclamation, surprising Tommy and Trystin with their own official holiday in Wabash. “Absolute glee,” Trystin said of how he felt when the announcement was made. “That’s awesome.” Trystin will return to Wabash Middle School as the only fifth grader with his own official day, but

he’s use to being at the top of his class. “Trystin has been on honor roll every year since he started martial arts, so it speaks to his character,” said Tommy. “He can do all this training and he still keeps his grades up.” Like most top athletes, the success has worked to further motivate them, and their eyes are set on the future. “Now that we’ve both placed gold, we have the right to go back in two years

when we compete again, and the rumor is, were going to England in two years to defend our medals,” said Tommy. They hope that one day, the International Olympic Committee will reconsider martial arts for admission into the Olympics, and that they might be able to make the United States team. Until then, they have plenty to work on. Tommy is training for his black belt test, which is scheduled for April. Trystin’s got his eye on his father, and hopes to outrank him one day, saying that will be his goal “always and forever.” He’s found a sport that he loves and one that he can learn from. “It’s like, it teaches you perseverance, I guess you could say, as you keep going down the road, in a way,” said Trystin. “You start doing it, and you think this is really hard, and you want to quit, but it always ends up paying off.” As Wabash residents enjoy their Thanksgiving leftovers on Friday, Tommy and Trystin Music will enjoy their own special day in Wabash history, but they won’t waste time getting back to the dojo; they’ve got the 2016 World Martial Arts Games to train for.

by Gary Andrews The Southwood Knights Wrestling garnered one victory at Bluffton’s season opening event Saturday.

The Knights dropped matches to Wes Del 32-42, Fremont 24-57, Central Noble 24-58, and Concordia 12-72, before defeating host

Bluffton 51-21. Senior Dustin Curless was 3-0 on the day. Junior Nathan McCown was 4-1 while wrestling above his weight. Alex

Shinninger, Chris Adams, Dylin Porter, and Cavin Beavers were 3-2. Phillip Klinger, Matthew Campbell, and Reid Votaw went 2-3. Also

wrestling were Logan Louck, Chad Elliott, Codie Sarll, and Asher Teague.

of the Week Four cited as IBCA/Subway Players of the Week Columbus North, Wabash, Princeton and Roncalli standouts claim first awards of 2014-15 by Gary Andrews Three players who opened their seasons with 40-point games and a fourth who averaged 32.5 points over two games have been selected as the initial winners of the IBCA/Subway Player of the Week program for 2014-15. Columbus North senior Ali Patberg, Wabash senior Claire Cromer, Princeton junior Jackie Young and Roncalli junior Lindsey Corsaro are the Week 1 recipients (for games played Nov. 10-15) in the player recognition program overseen by the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association. Cromer was chosen as the winner for District 1, Corsaro was selected in District 2, and Patberg and Young garnered co-recipient laurels in District 3. The 5-3 Cromer averaged 38.0 points over two games to earn accolades. She opened with 42 points, three rebounds and four steals in a 60-44 win over Mississinewa. Cromer followed with 34 points, three rebounds and two steals in a 62-55 triumph over Marion. Over two games, Cromer made 20-of-35 field goals, 12-of-20 3-pointers and 24of-26 free throws.

Lady Apaches rebound at Southern Wells by Gary Andrews After their first loss of the season on Thursday to Culver, the Wabash Lady Apache basketball team rebounded at Southern Wells Saturday, defeating the Raiders 48-41. The first two quarters were polar opposites of each other, with points coming at will in the first and hard to come by in the second. With an up and down pace in the first quarter, when the dust settled the score was tied at 21. It was just the opposite in the second, with a combined seven points being scored, as Southern Wells led 25-24 at the half. Wabash would come back to win the third quarter 10-7 to grab a 34-32 lead, then held off the Raiders in the fourth 14-9 for the 48-41 final. Claire Cromer led Wabash with 28 points. Sarah Puckett added eight, while Kristin Cromer and Madison Barden each put up four. Shelby Stone and Sydni Mullett had two points each.

Lady Norse capture Northfield Invite... continued from page 27 the third quarter for a 33-25 lead. Brooke Elliott scored 8 of the 14 Southwood points in the quarter. As fatigued as Southwood looked the first three quarters, it was just the opposite in the fourth. Brooke Elliott hit two free throws early as Johnny White said, “we are going to make a run”. Johnny was right as the Knights got a buckets from Haley Heath, Kassidy

Atwood, and Makenna Dawes; with Atwood free throws, the Lady Knights put up the first 12 points of the quarter and took a 37-33 lead. Concord would tie the score at 37 when Elliott hit again. Haley Heath would hit 3 free throws down the stretch as the Knights held Concord to just 4 points in the quarter in a 42-37 win. Leading Southwood was Brooke Elliott

with 20 points. Haley Heath added nine, Kassidy Atwood put up eight, Ashley Parson and Makenna Dawes added two each, and Taylor Heath scored a free throw. The final game of the night was Northfield taking on Fairfield. Hot first half shooting and tenacious defense led to the Norse pulling off a 42-34 win. Payton Thomson

was unstoppable in the first quarter, hitting from behind the arch three times and scoring 16 points to put the Norse ahead 18-10 after one. Jacklyn Peas had the other Norse bucket. With Arie Kennedy badgering sharp shooter Katie Yates, the Norse continued to stretch their lead. Thomson hit two buckets, one being a three with Jacklyn Peas getting a bucket

as Northfield led 28-17 at the half. The third quarter was a low scoring affair as the bucket wasn’t as wide. The Norse managed just two buckets, which came from Abby Keaffaber and Jacklyn Peas. With the Norse up 33-21, Fairfield scored the last 5 points of the quarter which included a banked threepointer at the buzzer to cut Northfield’s

lead to 33-26 with one quarter to go. Fairfield came out swinging in the fourth, scoring the first 4 points to make it 33-30, before an Abby Keaffaber bucket made it 35-30. Fairfield then cut the lead to 35-34 when Peas connected on two free throws, plus one from Keaffaber to hold the lead. The Norse defense would hold the Falcons scoreless the final two

minutes as they hit four free throws down the stretch for the 4234 win. Leading Northfield was Payton Thomson with 24 points. Jacklyn Peas added nine, and Abby Keaffaber added five. Sarah Driscoll put up two, while Cherish Leming and Arie Kennedy each scored one.

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 286 is proud to announce the local winners of our Teacher of the year and scholarship programs. These winners will now advance to district, which is our next level of competition. Our Teacher of the Year is Angie Loschiavo, who teaches history and social studies at Southwood Jr./Sr. High School. Our Voice of Democracy winners were Suzanna Sapusek from Northfield in first

place and Caitlyn Pratt from North Manchester High School in second. The Patriot Pen winners were Clay Herring from Sharp Creek in first, with Wabash Middle School students Madeline Helsel placing second and Robert Ford placing third. We are especially grateful to our judges, who were generous with their time and talent. They were Mitch Figert, Joe Slacian, and Dave Phillips. These programs could not have succeeded without the

teachers who saw the opportunity to help their students in a positive program offering the possibility of a scholarship. They were Ms. Beal and Mr. Hall at Wabash Middle School, Mrs. Campbell at Sharp Creek Elementary School, Mrs. Stouffer at Northfield Jr./Sr. High School, and Ms. Denney at North Manchester Jr./Sr. High School. Their professionalism and dedication are encouraging when we consider the future of Wabash County students.

The local Veterans of Foreign Wars post is proud of the way Wabash County is supporting its efforts to better the community and help veterans. Many local restaurants and businesses accepted the organization’s collection cans, and both Wal-Mart and Kroger allowed the group to set up for our Poppy Drive at their entrances. In spite of cold winds and falling

temperatures, many people willingly stopped to donate and thank the veterans for having served. The money raised is spent on veteran issues and needs in our community. Our recent Fish Fry yielded a profit of nearly $500, which will be divided between The Access and the VA Hospital at Marion, where many Wabash County Veterans get

their health care. The VA does not supply things such as toiletries, socks, and underwear to their inpatients. Families are expected to supply such things, however many of our aged veterans have no families to help and must rely on outside donations through Voluntary Services. The VA quit accepting donations of used clothing over a year ago. Since they

Olsen obviously wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only one that appreciated Rigneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goodnatured spirit, as the funeral service last Thursday was standing room only. In addition, numerous individuals have stopped to place flowers on the hood of Rigneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patrol car, which has been parked in front of the North

because departments just step up when another department is hurting. When the news broke, we were immediately contacted by an overwhelming number of other agencies, and they all said that they would do whatever we needed in order to help â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the brotherhood of law enforcement, and we would do the same if another department were in our situation.

Manchester Public Safety Building since last Tuesday, and flags all over town continue to fly at half-mast out of respect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a tremendous turnout for the funeral, and the community support was wonderful,â&#x20AC;? Enyeart said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but when it came to all of the law enforcement officers (approximately 120 from throughout the state) I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really surprised,

have been placed there. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also had food brought into the station, and both Main View and Pizza Hut offered to feed the department, as well as the family, if needed. Several of the ministers around the community have also offered counseling services. The entire probation department showed up at the funeral, and the town offices even closed until after the service. The general respect and honor everyone has for David is genuine, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gratifying to see â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he touched a lot of people in a short time.â&#x20AC;? Rigney is survived by his wife Stephanie, his daughter, Dalayna, and his son, Bryce. For anyone wishing to contribute to his childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s educational fund, please make your check out to LaFontaine Christian Church, write â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rigney Educational Fundâ&#x20AC;? in the memo line, and send it to LaFontaine Christian Church, 202 Bruner Pike, LaFontaine, IN 46942.

Correction In the Nov. 19 edition of The Paper, the accidents section of the Wabash Police Department reports incorrectly stated that on Nov. 7, a vehicle driven by Marcella Hively, 83, Wabash, struck a vehicle driven by Matthew Grier, 20, Wabash, near Hardeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. In fact, it was Grierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vehicle that struck Hivelyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vehicle.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Knowing Dave, I really wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too shocked by the turnout because I know he touched a lot of peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives and he meant a lot to a lot of different people. But, it was good to see that he got the respect back that he always gave â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I just wish it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like this. I do want to say that it does help us get through it, having so many people reach out to us and tell us theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sorry for our loss.â&#x20AC;? According to Perry, not only did other law enforcement agencies show their support at the funeral, but the Wabash County Sheriff â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department and Indiana State Police also covered the town from 11 p.m. on Tuesday until 7 a.m. on Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They did a great job filling in and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very grateful,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotten a very good response from the community as well. You can tell just by looking at the car out front and seeing all the memorials that
