DANA JEAN WILDT, 97, died Friday, Sept. 25, 2015 in Spring Arbor, Michigan. Jean, a beloved and life-long Concord, Michigan resident was born April 28, 1918. Jean was born in Concord Township to Dana and Alberta Hungerford. She a�ended school in a one-room schoolhouse in Concord Township before marrying and moving to Concord where she raised a family. Prior to her passing, Jean was the oldest living member of her 1935 graduating class. Jean lived her life devoted to her family and the town that she served. Jean was the Concord Township Clerk, serving in this position for 42 years, a record of the longest-serving township clerk in Jackson County. While serving in the clerk position, she also served as the treasurer for the village of Concord. It was not uncommon to see Jean at various Concord events, such as the Christmas Reception at the Hubbard House, or the Fireman breakfasts. A friend to all, she would o�en make time to chat with friends and fellow residents of Concord at the now-closed Shannon’s Market, the Post Office, the Cadet or the M-60 Grill. In addition to being a township and village servant, Jean was a mother and is survived by three sons, Bob (Sue)

Beals, Tom (Penny) Beals, and Lynn (Mickie) Wildt as well as one daughter Ann (John) Novak and their families. She has 13 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren who will all remember her fondly as a caring, selfless, loving woman who was quick to laugh at their jokes and was always interested in what they had to share. Jean had many hobbies throughout her life. She loved cross-stitching and kni�ing, and taught many of her granddaughters how to do both. Her homemade dish clothes were always a gi� that members of her family looked forward to receiving. Jean also loved to do fill-in word puzzles and read romance novels. Many of the cabinets at her house were filled with her collections of both, and she would o�en give her books to the many friends who would stop by and visit her. Jean was very family oriented, o�en holding holiday dinners at her house, especially Fourth of July picnics. Family members would shoot off fireworks every year, a�er Jean had notified the police to “make sure you don’t patrol Union St. between 9 and 10 p.m.” She made her legendary deviled eggs at family gatherings and would always have plenty of card games like Skip-Bo and Uno that she and her family members would enjoy. Jean was a loving mother and grandmother and would o�en have her grandchildren spend time during the summer at her house, where she would take them to downtown Concord, the cemetery, and drives in the country. She was preceded in death by her first husband, Alvin Beals, and her second husband, Harold Wildt, her parents, Dana and Alberta and her brother Frank. Not only does she leave

her family behind, but several friends, including Star Clark and Rosemary Beals, neighbors, and cousins. The family would like to thank the staff of Arbor Manor for providing such wonderful and loving care to “Jeannie” over the past 4 years. A special thank you to Toni and Amy, two her her main caregivers over the years. We would also like to thank all of the wonderful family and friends in the Concord area. Our mother would have never been able to remain as independent as she was if it had not been for all of you who elected her to office for 42 years and watched over her. All of you knew her pa�erns and if she wasn’t out bugging all of you on a regular basis, you were checking on her! She would o�en say “I have to report in before I leave town, or the police will be calling you.” A memorial celebrating Jean’s life and accomplishments will be held on Saturday, Oct. 17, 2015 at the Universalist Church, 200 Hanover St., Concord. Family will receive guests starting at 1 p.m. with the service to follow at 2 p.m. A luncheon will be served at the Hubbard House, 317 Hanover St., immediately following the service. All donations can be made to the Hubbard Memorial Museum Foundation. PO Box 463, Concord, Michigan, 49237. Lauer Family Funeral Home in Concord has been entrusted to care for the family. Please share condolences or memories at www.lauer�.com. Lauer Family Funeral Home 116 S. Main St. Concord

2015 Fall Home Improvement II

Why you should aerate your lawn this fall (StatePoint) Fall is a great time to aerate the lawn. Whether you do it yourself or hire a lawn care professional to do it for you, aeration at least once per year provides a number of benefits to your lawn, say experts. The main benefit is to

relieve compaction and increase pore space, which promotes gas exchange and microbial activity in the soil and creates a be�er, more supportive environment for lawn health and vitality. Aeration also promotes better soil drainage, which helps

keep disease at bay and allows more water to percolate into the soil from rain or irrigation, meaning less runoff and more water ge�ing where it needs to go. “Ideal aeration timing depends on turf type and geography,” says Lloyd Von Scheliha of Exmark Manufacturing, a manufacturer of turf care equipment. “But annual aeration provides valuable agronomic benefits to virtually any turfgrass.” With that in mind, here are some tips from the experts at Exmark to get the most benefits from aeration: • Timing: Ideally, aeration should take place during times of active growth to help with recovery. Avoid aeration during times of heat

stress or times preceding dormancy. It’s typically best to aerate cool season grasses in the spring or fall, while with warm season grasses, it’s best to aerate in late spring or early fall. • Proper equipment: Use gear that meets the needs of your lawn. For example, Exmark offers a 30-inch StandOn aerator that makes quick work of even large properties with the ability to easily maneuver around landscape features. • Follow-up: After aeration, it’s a good idea to water the lawn, as well as a good time to apply fertilizer or overseed if needed. Be careful not to apply a pre-emergent if you plan to overseed, however, as it will prevent

the new seed from growing. Don’t let this important, but often overlooked lawn care task escape your a�ention this season. At the

ideal time for your lawn, either take it upon yourself or hire a professional to give your grass a be�er chance at thriving.

Switching to LED Bulbs is Becoming More Affordable and Appealing Significant Energy and Cost Savings. The Rinnai tankless water heater provides significant energy savings from heating water only when you need it. You can save up to 50% on your water heating energy bills!

Save Energy. Save Money.

Brooklyn Plumbing Heating & AC 4017 Jefferson Rd., Clarklake CALL 517-529-9437 OR VISIT BROOKLYNPLUMBINGANDHEATING.COM

(StatePoint) The use of LED bulbs in homes is on the rise nationwide, and with good reason. Not only are they more energy efficient than their traditional counterparts, LEDs are becoming more affordable upfront. Indeed, of the United States’ four billion residential light bulb sockets, less than 10 percent are filled with LED lighting; but by 2020, more than 50 percent will be LED, according to industry estimates. This year alone, the consumer lighting market is anticipated to more than double with LED, while traditional CFL bulb usage is expected to decrease. LED is not a new technology and has been on the market for years. So what is driving this sudden consumer

shift? New light bulb designs are making these cost-efficient bulbs more convenient, a�ractive and affordable. In fact, certain designs retail as low as under $10 for a threepack of bulbs. For example, GE Lighting’s new Bright Stik bulb’s slender, sleek design is offered both in soft white and daylight, and fits in more sockets and fixtures compared to its general purpose CFL bulb counterpart. It has a rated life of 15,000 hours and should last nearly 14 years, at a cost of 10 cents per month based on three hours of operation daily and 11 cents per kilowa� hour. Designed to be a good alternative to general purpose replacement CFL bulbs, the Bright Stik can be used any-

where, from sockets found in basements, sheds, and garages to table and floor lamps, adding up to substantial energy savings over time. These bulbs are available in-store at The Home Depot or by visiting www.HomeDepot.com. To learn more about innovations in LED lighting, get lighting tips for any room of the house, or to find out how much you stand to save making the simple swap, visit gelighting.com/LightingWeb/ na/consumer/. You don’t need to be a skilled handyman to make an important, planet-friendly home upgrade that will save your family time and money for years to come. This weekend, consider trading in your traditional bulbs for a more modern variety.

Make the most of small bathrooms

A frameless shower can take up less space in a small bathroom. Renovating bathrooms is commonly at the top of home improvement to-do lists. Though some rooms around the house may remain timeless, bathrooms, like kitchens, show their age (and era) much more easily, which could be

why homeowners are always on the lookout for new ideas. Although many people may dream about creating a spa-type oasis in their homes, not everyone is lucky enough to have a large bathroom, much less a large budget for

a full-scale renovation. Small bathrooms are common, particularly in older homes, but they needn’t force homeowners to compromise on style when renovating. Small bathrooms may be a half-bath on a main home level or even a full bath, depending on the home. By thinking creatively, homeowners can maximize their spaces and redo bathrooms in ways that bring out their best assets. • When space is at a premium, it’s best to look for fixtures and items that fit with the scale of the bathroom. Although you may want a large vanity and cabinet in which to hide all of your toiletries, this simply may not be practical -- taking up most of the bathroom real estate. Instead, look for elegant pedestal sinks that have a much smaller profile. They’ll also help you control the clu�er in the bathroom because there won’t be anywhere to hide it. • Use optical illusions to make the bathroom appear more roomy. For example, lay tile diagonally to create the impression of space. A large mirror will reflect the room back and make it appear much larger than it really is. • Select lighter hues in paint colors and accessories. Dark paints and fixtures could make the room feel cramped. Dark colors are generally used to make spaces feel more cozy. In a small bathroom, it may make the space feel claustrophobic. Instead, think light and bright and the room will instantly feel more airy. • Minimize wall hangings and keep fixtures smaller. Filling the walls with knickknacks may contribute to clutter and make the space appear closed in. Use decorative items

LANDSCAPE sparingly. • If possible, store towels in a closet outside of the bathroom. This way you won’t have to devote space inside the bathroom to a closet, leaving more room for other things. • While some people like the thought of a separate bath and shower, in smaller bathrooms this may not be possible. Instead, look for a combined shower and bath, or select a walk-in shower with a much smaller profile. • Windows are o�en welcome in bathrooms because of the ventilation they provide, but they could be a hindrance in smaller bathrooms because they take up prime wall space. Cover a window in a shower stall to free up space. Just be sure to install a venting fan to reduce moisture in the bathroom. • Maximize wall space if you need storage. Find cabinets that will fit beneath windows or be able to fit in thin areas between sinks and toilets. Over the toilet is prime area for cabinetry. • Consider a frameless shower. This is a partitioned area of the bathroom that’s set aside for the shower and is typically only cordoned off by a thin wall or piece of glass. Or a shower with no walls at all is the ultimate in space-saving. The entire bathroom floor is decked out in tile, and a portion is sloped toward a shower drain. • Think about installing a skylight if you prefer natural light, but there is no room for a traditional window. Thinking creatively can help turn a cramped bathroom into a space-saving and welldesigned room homeowners desire.

The value in knowing R-Value (MS) -- If you are in the midst of renovating or building your home, it is likely you have heard the term “RValue” being thrown around. Understanding what it means and its importance is the real test. Measuring the ability to limit the heat flow transferred through insulation is known as R-Value, say specialists in this field. Augmenting the

traditional insulation in walls and ceilings is not typically regarded by industry specialists as an effective short-term or long-term solution, since it does not offer air sealing capabilities the way modern alternatives do. Spray foam insulation provides a consistent R-Value plus air seal in one step without the potential for sagging, se�ling or gaping that tradi-

tional insulation might. Adding further layers of insulation in a traditional environment just to increase R-Value eventually proves superfluous and ineffective with very li�le payback over the long-term. The United States Department of Energy says that compressed insulation will not provide its full R-Value. Moreover, the installed R-Value will differ from the insulation R-Value itself due to heat flow around the home making it imperative that the insulation is properly installed by a professional who knows their product and how they work. Homeowners should stay ahead of the curve and understand what is right for their home to ensure its longterm sustainability.

The Fall Home Care Checklist

This short checklist will help guide you to the most important elements to monitor and maintain in your home, keeping you and your family safe and maximizing

the life of your home. When the time changes, it’s time to check the ba�eries in your smoke detectors. Making sure they are still operational is quick and easy and will bring peace of mind for another six months. Similarly, every year, you should check your fire extinguishers to ensure that they have the proper pressure. Look for dents and dings, and make sure the pin is in the correct position. Fall is a great time to do this, as you’ll be spending more time indoors. If the pressure has

fallen too low, find a professional to recharge them for you. Most people don’t use their chimney in the summer, and soot can build up over the course of a year. Other debris like birds’ nests or even leaves can create unsafe blockages. Have your chimney inspected by a professional if you plan to use it through the winter. Small animals will be looking for a warm place to sleep, and your home is a great option for them. Perform routine pest control in your area, watching out for places where animals might get into your home. Most importantly, you’ll want to have your furnace and heating system checked by a professional. This can save you big money on your heating bill, and an inspection can ensure that there isn’t a dangerous buildup of carbon monoxide in your home. Furnace and air filters should be changed regularly to maximize safety and efficiency. If you are plan-

This is a big list—and it’s certainly not comprehensive—but all of these things can be accomplished in one weekend day.

Appropriate additions to your home can add value when the time comes to sell your home, you will make a good profit from it. When it comes to adding to home’s value, some improvements are be�er than others. Here are some of the top home improvement projects that offer the most return.

SIDING Siding is one of the first things people see about your home. Make a good impression with new low-maintenance vinyl siding. Yes, it will cost you, $10,000 and up for most jobs, but it will add curb appeal and a�ract more buyers when it comes time to sell. Buyers will relish the fact that they will not have to paint the exterior. ROOF Along with siding, you might want to invest in a new roof at some point. It will add to the curb appeal of your home and protect it and everything within it from the elements.

Why you should aerate your lawn this fall (StatePoint) Fall is a great time to aerate the lawn. Whether you do it yourself or hire a lawn care professional to do it for you, aeration at least once per year provides a number of benefits to your lawn, say experts. The main benefit is to

relieve compaction and increase pore space, which promotes gas exchange and microbial activity in the soil and creates a be�er, more supportive environment for lawn health and vitality. Aeration also promotes better soil drainage, which helps

keep disease at bay and allows more water to percolate into the soil from rain or irrigation, meaning less runoff and more water ge�ing where it needs to go. “Ideal aeration timing depends on turf type and geography,” says Lloyd Von Scheliha of Exmark Manufacturing, a manufacturer of turf care equipment. “But annual aeration provides valuable agronomic benefits to virtually any turfgrass.” With that in mind, here are some tips from the experts at Exmark to get the most benefits from aeration: • Timing: Ideally, aeration should take place during times of active growth to help with recovery. Avoid aeration during times of heat

stress or times preceding dormancy. It’s typically best to aerate cool season grasses in the spring or fall, while with warm season grasses, it’s best to aerate in late spring or early fall. • Proper equipment: Use gear that meets the needs of your lawn. For example, Exmark offers a 30-inch StandOn aerator that makes quick work of even large properties with the ability to easily maneuver around landscape features. • Follow-up: After aeration, it’s a good idea to water the lawn, as well as a good time to apply fertilizer or overseed if needed. Be careful not to apply a pre-emergent if you plan to overseed, however, as it will prevent

the new seed from growing. Don’t let this important, but often overlooked lawn care task escape your a�ention this season. At the

ideal time for your lawn, either take it upon yourself or hire a professional to give your grass a be�er chance at thriving.

Switching to LED Bulbs is Becoming More Affordable and Appealing Significant Energy and Cost Savings. The Rinnai tankless water heater provides significant energy savings from heating water only when you need it. You can save up to 50% on your water heating energy bills!

(StatePoint) The use of LED bulbs in homes is on the rise nationwide, and with good reason. Not only are they more energy efficient than their traditional counterparts, LEDs are becoming more affordable upfront. Indeed, of the United States’ four billion residential light bulb sockets, less than 10 percent are filled with LED lighting; but by 2020, more than 50 percent will be LED, according to industry estimates. This year alone, the consumer lighting market is anticipated to more than double with LED, while traditional CFL bulb usage is expected to decrease. LED is not a new technology and has been on the market for years. So what is driving this sudden consumer

shift? New light bulb designs are making these cost-efficient bulbs more convenient, a�ractive and affordable. In fact, certain designs retail as low as under $10 for a threepack of bulbs. For example, GE Lighting’s new Bright Stik bulb’s slender, sleek design is offered both in soft white and daylight, and fits in more sockets and fixtures compared to its general purpose CFL bulb counterpart. It has a rated life of 15,000 hours and should last nearly 14 years, at a cost of 10 cents per month based on three hours of operation daily and 11 cents per kilowa� hour. Designed to be a good alternative to general purpose replacement CFL bulbs, the Bright Stik can be used any-

where, from sockets found in basements, sheds, and garages to table and floor lamps, adding up to substantial energy savings over time. These bulbs are available in-store at The Home Depot or by visiting www.HomeDepot.com. To learn more about innovations in LED lighting, get lighting tips for any room of the house, or to find out how much you stand to save making the simple swap, visit gelighting.com/LightingWeb/ na/consumer/. You don’t need to be a skilled handyman to make an important, planet-friendly home upgrade that will save your family time and money for years to come. This weekend, consider trading in your traditional bulbs for a more modern variety.

Mold. Mildew. Dirt. Oil. Grime. They are not pre�y, and if le� long enough, they can wreak havoc on a home. Spring brings nice weather and green gunk on and around your home. Hosing away the gunk is a necessity for the health and happiness of your home, and the best way to go about it is with a pressure washer. A pressure washer makes quick work of outside cleaning. Water is directed through a high-pressure nozzle to sweep away all of the mold, mildew, dirt, oil and grime from siding, brick, stucco, decking and more. A pressure washer is not a hose. It is a tool, and it must be used properly to prevent damage and obtain a thorough clean. You can purchase a pressure washer or rent one for

the day. Many brands are available. If you are buying a pressure washer, make sure you do your homework. Read up on the various brands available and choose the one that is right for you. Generally, the more powerful the washer, the more it will cost but the heavier jobs it will be able to tackle. Choose a model that will serve your long-term needs and your budget. Once you get the pressure washer home, make sure you know how to use it. Read the owner’s manual and know what pressure to use for the job. The cleaning of brick, stucco and wood siding usually requires a lighter touch, about 1,500 pounds per square inch. The cleaning of concrete may take more. Most exterior surfaces can be pressure washed, from decks and patios to driveways and sidewalks to brick,

stucco and siding. The key is to adjust the pressure for each surface and a�ack the gunk from top to bo�om, standing at least three feet away. This will prevent damage from intense pressure. If you have heavily soiled areas, you may want to look into using some type of cleaner and a scrub brush. Read up on the surfaces you intend to clean and prepare accordingly. You should also take time out to prep the site. Close all windows and doors. Remove all obstacles. Cover all plants. Then get ready to clean the surface from top to bo�om, washing the dirt down. This will save valuable time and energy. Pressure washing is not hard, and doing it routinely could save you money and time later. If le� long enough, gunk and grime can take a real toll on a home and cause ro�ing and other structural issues. It can also take a toll on your health. Don’t leave it to Mother Nature to care for the exterior of your home. A good hard rain won’t do as good of a cleaning as a pressure washer will.

If you’re si�ing on a stash of le�over latex paint, you have a gold mine when it comes to home decorating. With a li�le imagination and creative flair, you can use paint le�overs to give your home extra appeal, and have lots of fun in the process. Want to give it a go? Here are 10 great ideas, courtesy of the Paint Quality Institute. Try one, try all, or be�er yet, try something that’s yours alone. Regard-

THIS SEASON I WANT SOMETHING

less, you’ll be surprised at the way forgo�en paint can infuse new life into your home interior. 1. Make kitchen items kitschy. It takes only a li�le le�over paint to impart canisters, coasters, or the handles of wooden spoons and spatulas with bright, fun color that can make cooking more joyful. 2. Colorize some flowerpots. In the same way, planters and flowerpots can be decorated with paint color -- the more, the merrier. Paint them one solid color, or embellish them with pattern for more panache! 3. Dress up a dresser. Have an old dresser that’s tired-looking? Spice it up with paint. Use different colors on different parts for added visual interest. Do the same with an old stool, table, or cabinet. 4. Rejuvenate “junk” furniture. Check out your a�ic or your neighbors’ discards. You might find hidden treasure in the form of a unique piece just pining for a fresh coat of paint. 5. Put a stamp on your walls. Add pizzazz to painted walls with a handcra�ed pa�erned border. Fashion a “stamp” out of an old sponge in the pa�ern of your choice, then dip it in the le�over paint and dab new color onto the walls. Voila! Custom design. 6. Speak with an accent. Express your home’s individuality by adding accent color to a door, doorway, or an entire wall. The unexpected color will make your interior something special. 7. Beautify a built-in. Embellish built-in bookcases, cabinets, or a mantel-

piece with le�over paint to create striking elements in your décor. 8. Stencil something. Using a homemade or commercial stencil, apply paint to just about anything – a piece of furniture, a wall, or even the floor. It can render the ordinary, extraordinary. 9. Make like an artist. Why buy art supplies, when you already have a handpicked pale�e of colors you like? Use them as is, or mix them as needed to create murals or fine art. 10. Frame your artwork. Repaint the frames on your prints, paintings, and drawings to give them a fresh appearance. Or, paint a simulated “frame” right on the wall to draw a�ention to favorite objects or sculpture. Most of these projects take just a small amount of

paint, but they can make a big difference in your home décor. For how-to information on these and other paint projects, visit the Paint Quality Institute blog at blog.paintquality.com. Since 1989, The Paint Quality Institute (SM) has been educating people on the advantages of using quality interior and exterior paints and coatings. The Paint Quality Institute’s goal is to help educate consumers, contractors and designers by providing information on the virtues of quality paint as well as color trends and decorating with paint through a variety of instructional platforms and conferences, and traditional and new media vehicles.

Celebrate People Helping People. Jackson area credit unions will join with 56,000 credit unions around the world on Oct. 15, 2015, in celebration of International Credit Union (ICU) Day®. There are 200+ million credit union members around the

world—more than 100 million in the U.S. alone—and the local credit unions will join them in celebration of the not-forprofit cooperative spirit that all credit unions share. This cooperative spirit has led to life-changing oppor-

tunities for people all over the world who’ve wanted to start a small business, own a home or continue their education but were denied access to other financial institutions. In many parts of the world, people’s first taste of democracy

is through their credit union, where “one member, one vote” is the governing structure. At its most basic level, a credit union is people pooling their money to provide each other with affordable loans—it is literally people helping people. This is why the local credit unions celebrate ICU Day. Because credit unions empower people, wherever they are in the world or life, to take control of their financial future. The public is welcome to stop by their local credit union and celebrate a movement that concerns itself with the financial success of all people.

MORNING STAR • October 11, 2015 • THE SALESMAN • Page 16

Six ways to join a credit union Credit unions are for everyone, but the law places some limits on the people they may serve. A credit union’s charter defines its “field of membership,” which could be an employer, church, school, or community. Anyone working for an employer that sponsors a credit union, for example, is eligible to join that credit union. If you don’t belong, here’s how to find a credit union to join: 1. Poll your family. Does your spouse’s employer sponsor a credit union? Most credit unions allow credit union members’ families to join.

Each credit union, however, may define “family” differently. At some credit unions, only members of your immediate family are eligible. At other credit unions, family may include extended family members, such as cousins, uncles, and aunts. 2. Ask your boss. Your company may sponsor a credit union, or may be a select employee group (SEG) that has access to a credit union. Many employers offer direct deposit of payroll to your credit union. 3. Quiz the neighbors. Some credit unions have a “community” field of membership,

A credit union is a cooperative financial institution, owned and controlled by the people who use its services. These people are members. Credit unions serve groups that share something in common, such as where they work, live, or go to church. Credit unions are not-forprofit, and exist to provide a safe, convenient place for members to save money and to get loans at reasonable rates. Credit unions, like other financial institutions, are

closely regulated. And they operate in a very prudent manner. The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, administered by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an agency of the federal government, insures deposits of credit union members at more than 11,000 federal and state-chartered credit unions nationwide. Deposits are insured up to $250,000. What makes a credit union different from a bank or savings & loan? Like credit unions, these financial institutions accept deposits and make loans--but unlike credit unions, they are in business to make a profit. Banks and savings & loans are owned by groups of stockholders whose interests include earning a healthy return on their investments.

What is a credit union?

serving a region defined by geography rather than by employment or some other association. Ask friends in the community if they know of a

credit union you may join. 4. Read your local paper. A display ad may state a credit union’s field of membership. If not, at least you’ll know

what number to call to ask about membership eligibility. 5. Use the online Michigan credit union finder. 6. Call your state league. In Michigan, you can call (800) 262-6285 x225 and speak to someone who can help you find a nearby credit union. Or,

call the National Credit Union Administration at (800) 3585710. You’ll hear an electronic message that includes the name and telephone number of a person at the credit union league in your state who can help you find a credit union to join.

Beyond Revelation: The Fairy Tale Paintings of Katherine Ace

The Ella Sharp Museum is exhibiting a series of paintings by Katherine Ace based on the works of fairy tales collected by the Brothers Grimm. Ace is a realist painter whose work features masterfully rendered people and objects, sumptuous colors, and haunting imagery. Her paintings draw the viewer into scenes inspired by familiar stories like “Cinderella,â€? “Liďż˝le Red Riding Hood,â€? and “Hansel and Gretel,â€? and less well-known tales, like the “The Fisherman’s Wifeâ€? and “The Six Swans.â€? Ace was drawn to the Grimms’ tales as dramatic scenarios in which the challenges of one’s inner life are symbolically dramatized. She has written that in her paintings she explores, “dark feelings, the

˜nÂŁÂŁ

process of transformation, and the ďŹ re beneath the outward reserve that we usually present to the world.â€? The artist’s still lifes remain alive in the viewer’s imagination long aďż˝er they have been seen. Ace has a large talent for the striking arrangement of elements—owers, birds, ďŹ sh, newspapers. The newspapers give a sense of contemporary life to her paintings; they deliberately intrude upon the quietly detailed, sometimes restful, sometimes menacing atmosphere of Ace’s pictures. The exhibit opens Oct. 17 and closes Jan. 16, 2016. The Ella Sharp Museum is located at 3225 Fourth St., in Jackson. For more information call 517-787-2320 or visit their website at ellasharp.org.

age 4. The McClurg family also includes two biological sons, Michael, 24, and Shawn, 20. “It was an honor to meet Sharon and nominate their beautiful family for this national recognition. Despite many obstacles and unexpected challenges, the McClurg’s seless desire to help children in need has provided ďŹ ve wonderful kids with the chance at a new life. The way in which this family has lovingly opened their hearts and home to special needs orphans is an inspiration to us all,â€? said Walberg. Angels in Adoption is a program of the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute (CCAI) that provides an opportunity for Members of Congress to honor constituents who have enriched the lives of foster children and orphans. The McClurgs were honored at the annual CCAI awards ceremony Oct. 6 in Washington, D.C. along with other recipients from around the country.
