AVHS seniors to share the same stage Graduation day brings them together from separate paths by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

As the names of the Apple Valley High School graduating class of 2017 are read on Saturday, June 3, during its commencement ceremony, the time in the spotlight will be brief for each one. But the stories of their past, present and future go much deeper than that one moment in time that is likely to trigger different thoughts in the minds each student, parent, teacher and even other friends and family mem-

bers. They may recall good times and bad, success and struggle or even look ahead to what’s in store in the next years. The newspaper offers the following reflections from three seniors in the Apple Valley class of 2017. They hint at the wide range of paths students have taken to reach this day and the divergent ways they will go in the coming years. For one night, though, they will all share the same stage.

In 1961, shortly before he graduated high school, Gary Bellmore stood before a judge and was given three choices. Within 30 days of graduation he had to be employed, join the service or be sent to reform school. “You know what I chose: ‘I do solemnly swear,’ � said Gary, who took U.S. Air Force oath of enlistment eight days after getting his diploma. Now 74, the Burnsville resident has been reflecting on his military service and his family’s. He’s one of nine Bellmore brothers, seven of whom served. His brother Joe, one of the Bellmores who didn’t, asked the veterans in the family for photos of themselves in uniform. About a year ago, one of Gary’s nephews brought him a framed collection of the boys’ military portraits, left to right in order of age and enlistment, with Gary being the youngest and last to serve. “My eyes got wet. ... Dripped down my cheeks, too,� he said. “This is unusual, that many guys in one family,� he said. “There was no

Eagan teacher dies during trail race Jon Mathson was a science teacher at EHS by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Jon Fredric Mathson, 41, of Eagan, died unexpectedly while running the Superior Spring 25K Trail Race near Lutsen last weekend. According to the John Storkamp, Superior Spring Trail race director, Mathson collapsed on the trail between Moose Mountain and Mystery Mountain while running on the Superior Hiking Trail.

Leprechaun Days parade route to change Annual event in Rosemount to run only on 145th Street by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

For the past few years, the Rosemount Leprechaun Days Committee has looked at ways to improve Grand Day Parade traffic concerns before and after the event. Having the parade staging area in the Rosemount High School parking lot led to traffic backups along Highway 3 prior to the parade starting. With the parade ending at Rosemount Middle School, floats had to progress directly onto Highway 3 — an uncontrolled intersection — which created backups and hazardous conditions, according to Police Chief Mitchell Scott. The committee reviewed the issue more intently after it was known that at some point the Rosemount High School parking lot — the parade’s traditional staging area — would need to be reconstructed. Although the parking lot work is not happening this summer, the committee decided to alter the route for this year’s 11 a.m. Saturday, July 29, parade, which will travel only on 145th Street from its start at Shannon Parkway to its end at Cameo Avenue. While many floats will continue to use Highway 3 after the parade, planners expect the traffic flow to improve due to stoplights at the intersection. Parade chairperson Barb Hester said floats can turn north on Cameo to-

ward Rosemount Middle School after the parade to disassemble. Float lineup on 145th Street will start at Shannon Parkway and extend back to Diamond Path. It is possible some floats will stage on Shannon Parkway north and south of the start. There are many parade participants who are dropped prior to the parade to stage with their floats. People are encouraged to drop off adjacent to the route. Parking will be available at Rosemount Middle and Elementary schools and Rosemount High School. The residents living in the neighborhoods north and south of 145th Street will not be able to use 145th for a time before the parade but will have access to other roadways that will get them where they need to go. Affected residents and businesses have already or will soon be notified of the changes by letter. The new parade route will mean that the neighborhood north of 145th Street from Chili to Cameo avenues won’t need to be blocked off. Scott said isolating the neighborhood for several hours was a concern. Committee president Steve Ball said eliminating two turns and a long uphill climb from the high school will remove problems for some floats. He also said the new route will allow for more seating for parade attendees.

The Rosemount Leprechaun Days Grand Day Parade route will travel only on 145th Street this year as a way to reduce traffic hazards on Highway 3, provide more seating and eliminate blocking off the neighborhood west of Rosemount Elementary School. The application deadline for the parade is June 14. There is no charge for community service groups or nonprofits. The cost for a business, commercial or political unit is $100 each. Because of staging restrictions, the parade is capped at 100 units. Those who want to organize a fundraiser during the parade are required to obtain a vendor roaming permit through the Rosemount Parks and Recreation Department. The permit fee is $100. There are additional restrictions on the permit application. For more information, call 651-322-6010. For a parade application, go online to www. rosemountevents.com.

Dakota Electric rallies volunteers for GreenTouch day Approximately 60 Dakota Electric Association members volunteered their time on May 6 at Whitetail Woods Regional Park in Empire Township as part of the annual, statewide, Touchstone Energy GreenTouch day. The volunteers of all ages planted 1,500 native plants

in the 456-acre park, which opened September 2014. The native species planted this year, and more than 1,000 trees planted other years, will eventually provide a natural habitat for animals and nature lovers to enjoy. Dakota Electric’s effort to organize volunteers at the park

is part of a larger statewide program started by electric cooperatives in 2000. Since its inception, the GreenTouch event has attracted 9,350 volunteers statewide who have completed more than 33,437 volunteer hours benefiting Minnesota parks. This was the sixth year Da-

kota Electric rallied volunteers to work in a Dakota County park, and the 16th year overall that Dakota Electric has been organizing its members to volunteer at local parks. To view photos of the event, visit www.facebook.com/dakotaelectric. Funding for this project was provided from the

Ninja warrior training center coming to Burnsville by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

If you’re into warped walls, salmon ladders, jumping spiders and the bridge of blades, a new fitness and training center opening in Burnsville may be right up your half-pipe. Conquer Ninja Warrior will open its third Twin Cities location around July 1 south of County Road 42 West between Burnsville Parkway and Southcross Drive. The business received City Council approval May 16 to occupy 7,590 square feet of the multitenant building at 3203 Corporate Center Drive. Its two gyms packed with multicolored obstacles will be familiar to viewers of the TV series “American Ninja Warrior.� The sports entertainment competition series is a spin-off of a Japanese television series called “Sasuke.� Ninja warrior training became its own fitness craze, and Conquer Ninja Warrior owner Jake Marshman opened his first ninja gym in 2015 in Eden Prairie, followed by another in Woodbury. A Blaine location will also open in July, Marshman

said. The longevity of the Japanese and American TV shows demonstrates ninjas’ staying power, he said. A ninja is defined as someone who is trained in ancient Japanese martial arts for espionage and assassinations. “People asked if this is just going to be a fad,� Marshman said. “Well, it’s been over 20 years in Japan and it’s still going. This is season nine this year in the U.S., and it’s still gaining popularity.� Conquer Ninja Warrior is all ninja all the time, not your ordinary fitness center, he said. “There are cardio aspects to it, there are conditioning aspects to it, and there’s the all-around obstacle aspect to it,� Marshman said. “We don’t have the traditional fitness equipment or anything like that — no treadmills. It’s just ninja warrior obstacles and variations of it.� Conquer Ninja Warrior will be available for fitness classes, competition training, birthday parties, corporate events and open gym time, Marshman said. “All I know is it’s fun, and people love to do it,� he said. “It’s a fun way to stay active, and it’s chal-

lenging no matter how athletic you are.� Ninja training is for “kids 5 years old all the way up to 65-year-olds,� Marshman said. “It is kids and adults. We scale it to both,� he said. “And we find that the youth use it more, just because they’re not scared to try new things as much as an adult.� His company fabricates most of its own gym rigging and obstacles at its shop in Hopkins, Marshman said. “It’s going to be red, blue, we’ve got some foam pits, a lot of landing pads,� he said of the Burnsville gym. “It’s safe, it’s fun for all ages, it’ll be wide open, and when you walk in people will a lot of times be in awe because it’s just so unique and exciting.� His Eden Prairie and Woodbury gyms are home to a few serious competitors. “We’ve had several members compete on ‘American Ninja Warriors’ the show,� Marshman said. “This year alone we had six people from Conquer go compete. We had four trainers-staff and a couple members go compete. And both our current gym managers in Eden

In honor of National EMS Week, the Dakota County Board of Commissioners and the EMS Council are recognizing the 2017 EMS Award winners as well as all EMS providers and first responders who work every day to make Dakota

County a safe place to live. Six people received an EMS Award for their quick actions and bravery that helped save lives. Kenneth Nelson, a USPS worker, found an elderly woman who had fallen on her back deck and was unable to move for several hours. He called 911 and stayed with her until help arrived. Tracy Cassano, a teacher at Rosemount High School, provided lifesaving CPR for her co-worker who collapsed at school. Burnsville Fighter/ Paramedic Michael Andrews, Thomas Hale and Scott Hanlon helped rescue and resuscitate a woman after her car crashed

and was submerged in a pond. They swiftly found the car and performed a successful underwater rescue. Burnsville Police Officer Erin Holznagel provided lifesaving measures to a stab victim who had lost around 70 percent of his blood. For more on the stories that earned the recipients their awards, visit www. co.dakota.mn.us/socialmedia. The Dakota County EMS Council is a long partnership made up of Dakota County Public Health, area hospitals, the Dakota Communications Center, and the county’s eight EMS providers.

In 2016, the council completed highly infectious disease training, participated in a multidisciplinary, county-wide emergency preparedness exercise, and focused on mental health through Adult and Youth Mental Health First Aid trainings.

Opinion Minnesota above average, but economic inequality persists Years before “the 1 percent” was coined as an invective against deeply uneven U.S. wealth distribution, a Minnesota congressman was tilting his sword at the problem. The late Martin Sabo, a Minneapolis Democrat, repeatedly introduced a bill called the Income Equity Act to limit corporate tax deductions on executive salaries. His ambition, always thwarted, was to use the tax code to try to narrow the gap between sky-high executive salaries and those of the rank and file. Sabo believed growing stratification was corrosive, a threat to upward mobility and social cohesion. “We all do better when we all do better,” said another politician of the era, the late Sen. Paul Wellstone. Were they still alive, these late-20th century figures might be heartened by some of the comparatively positive economic metrics of their home state, disturbed by others and despairing of an unimpeded national trend toward income inequality. Since the late 1970s, income inequality has grown throughout the United States and in Minnesota, which nonetheless has stayed above average. The state’s “Gini coefficient” — a numerical value of inequality — has been consistently lower than the nation’s since 1979, St. Paul-based think tank Growth and Justice reported in 2015. Minnesota was the 16th most equal state in 2012. It enjoyed a higher median household income, lower poverty and lower overall inequality than the country as a whole, and was recovering the

ECM Editorial This is the second installment in an editorial series called The Changing Face of Minnesota. This year, the ECM Publishers Editorial Board is examining demographic changes and disparities in Minnesota that center around race, wealth, age, region and employment. advantage it held before the Great Recession of the late 2000s and early 2010s, according to Growth and Justice. The top 1 percent of Minnesota families take home 16.3 percent of income in the state, the Washington, D.C.-based Economic Policy Institute reported last June, citing 2013 data. The average income of the top 1 percent was $1.04 million, says the EPI, which advocates for low- and middle-income workers. It took $411,022 in earnings to crack the top 1 percent. The average income for everyone else was $52,689. The state’s median income was $61,500 in 2014, the same as in 2013, the U.S. Census Bureau reported in September 2015. That round of census data included a shocking statistic that reverberated throughout state government. Household income for blacks in Minnesota fell 14 percent from 2013 to 2014, with their median income dropping from $31,500 to $27,000. The drop came amid a falling longer-term unemployment rate for black Minnesotans, from 20 percent in 2011 to 13 percent in 2014, the Minne-

sota State Demographic Center reports. Rapid growth in the number of black Minnesotans, including those with limited English skills, is believed to have contributed to the sudden loss of prosperity. Poverty rates in 2014 were 38 percent for black Minnesotans, 32 percent for the state’s American Indians and 23 percent for Minnesota Hispanics. The rate was 12 percent for all Minnesotans and 8 percent for white Minnesotans. Multicolored maps showing income and Gini coefficient levels by county illustrate deep income stratification within Minnesota. Counties with the lowest median incomes and highest inequality are concentrated in northern Minnesota, Growth and Justice reports. By contrast, several suburban counties outside Hennepin and Ramsey boast the highest incomes and lowest inequality. In extreme cases, median incomes are more than twice in some suburban counties (such as Scott and Washington) than they are in rural counties (such as Mahnomen and Clearwater). This year Growth and Justice unveiled its Minnesota Rural Equity Project, an effort to study and attack the disparities. U.S. wage gains, following years of stagnation, have begun to reverse the 2014 drop in black incomes. Reacting to the drop, the Legislature approved $35 million for targeted job training and other efforts. Gov. Mark Dayton in 2014 signed a law increasing the minimum wage from $6.15 an hour to its current $9.50 for large employers and $7.75 for small

employers, with an annual inflationary boost. A universal $15 minimum-wage campaign has for years been gaining steam nationally and is now part of the mainstream political debate in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Some argue that a $15 minimum would be too disruptive to many businesses and is ill-suited for a wide range of employers. Some workers who don’t finish high school or gain employment skills may find it harder than ever to be hired by businesses demanding added value at such a wage. In any case, this is no time for government to skimp on higher education, early education with targeted scholarships for at-risk toddlers, skills training, health care, child-care assistance and programs such as the Earned Income Tax Credit that make climbing the ladder of a changing, competitive economy a little easier. “We need to set aside the belief that government cannot do anything about reducing inequality,” former President Obama said in December 2013, calling growing economic inequality “the defining challenge of our time.” “We know from our history that our economy grows best from the middle out, when growth is more widely shared,” Obama said. “And we know that beyond a certain level of inequality, growth actually slows altogether.” This is an opinion of the ECM Editorial Board.

Two new ways to save thousands in college costs by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

While lots of attention is focused on disagreements between some Minnesota legislators and Gov. Mark Dayton, these policy leaders have agreed on two new opportunities that can save Minnesota students and families thousands of dollars in college costs. Both involve high school work that will be accepted by the Minnesota state public colleges and universities. The first, which starts this fall, allows students to use statewide standardized reading and math test scores to skip remedial courses. The second allows students mastering one or more of 15 world languages to earn free college credit. The new policy about statewide Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment scores responds in part to an important, recurring question that students ask: Does this test count? Now, the answer is yes. By doing well on the reading and math MCA tests they take in high school, students can avoid taking remedial or developmental courses offered at Minnesota State two-year colleges and four-year universities. This can save thousands of dollars. Research and experience also show that students who take remedial courses are less likely to graduate. Jennifer Dugan, director of the Research and Assessment Division at Min-

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan nesota Department of Education, told me that students applying to Minnesota State colleges or universities can ask for their MCA test scores to be sent, along with their grades, to these institutions. In talking via email with representatives of more than 20 Minnesota district and charter high schools, I found a little confusion on this point. Some planned to do this, while one district thought it was not legal to send MCA scores. Duggan emphasized that state law does permit this. Tony Taschner, Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District’s communications director, said a couple of Apple Valley High School students have asked the district to submit MCA scores to colleges as placement exams for next fall. Dave Helke, principal at Burnsville High School, said to his knowledge no students have asked the school to submit MCA scores on their behalf. MDE officials are eager for more students to know about this opportunity. Of the representatives of the more than 20 high schools I talked with, only

two reported that students had asked that their MCA scores be sent to Minnesota State colleges or universities. Doug Anderson, Minnesota State director of communications and media, pointed out that more information for students and schools, including how the colleges and universities treat the test scores is found here: http://bit.ly/2qw5eXe. Additional information is here: http://bit. ly/2rqasD7. Another way for Minnesota students to save money on postsecondary education is via Minnesota’s world language seals and proficiency certificate programs. They were adopted by the Legislature in 2014 and revised in 2015. In my conversations with high school representatives, I found participation varies widely. Some schools are making extensive use of this opportunity, while others are considering it. These programs are voluntary for districts and charters. One Eastview High School student has earned a seal in the Tamil language, and Eagan High School is forming a to work on the language seal process, according to Taschner. Helke said to his knowledge Burnsville High does not have any students who have used the bilingual seals program. Assessments that are free to students are available in Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hmong, Japanese, Karen, Latin, Ojibway, Oromo, Russian, Spanish and

Tamil. Students in grades 10-12 can participate in this program. Doing well on the assessments can produce college credit at the Minnesota State institutions. The seals can be put on students’ transcripts and diplomas. Ursula Lentz, world language and English learner specialist at MDE, told me that last year, Minnesota students did well enough on more than 1,000 assessments to earn free college credit. The program is voluntary for districts and charters. However, Lentz emphasized that she is “glad to facilitate the process” between interested families and schools. In fact, she’s already helped a family work out arrangements with a school. Lentz’s contact information and more information about the program can be found here: http://bit. ly/2reRmTQ. MDE officials are eager to work with students, families and schools to help make these opportunities available. Thanks to state policymakers for making this cost-savings possible. At a time when there is considerable contention in politics, it’s good to see collaboration that recognizes and honors student achievement.

Letters Breathable air To the editor: Many people have taken advantage of Dakota Electric Association’s offer to use some of the power generated by wind turbines. Some birds may be sacrificed in that process; others may survive due to improved air quality. We’ve found that pollution doesn’t discriminate between which birds get to pass through those turbines and which smack right into the blades, and baby chicks may still grow and fly without noxious

fumes to breathe. Humans and other animals and plants have an increased shot at life with cleaner air, and Dakota Electric’s move to wind is admirable. There are still other sources the public is interested in, including solar, hydro-, geo- and others. Xcel Energy has begun a large-scale light farm in the state and other co-ops and major corporations in the state and region have heard similar expressions of interest. Many opinion polls show folks in the metro

area are interested enough that they pay for hybrid or electric cars at substantially higher prices, and the used car market shows trends like that too. Our member of Congress, state representatives, senators, state and federal, our CEOs, managers, bosses and others hear our interest and commitment to reduce pollution. Minnesota Valley Co-op, South Central, DEA, Geronimo, and other folks need to hear from us for our air and waters. My dad, whose life was shortened by smoking

Book, bridge, scholarships honor area veterans Book released detailing Ben Kopp’s life by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The lives of local men who died while serving the country are being remembered this week. The book “Heart of A Ranger: The True Story of Cpl. Ben Kopp, American Hero in Life and Death,� which tells the story of the Rosemount graduate who paid the ultimate sacrifice, was released. The Minnesota Legislature also passed a bill that would designate the bridge over U.S. Highway 52 in Coates as the Corporal Benjamin S. Kopp Bridge. Rain put a damper on the Chris Goeke Memorial Ultimate Frisbee Tournament at Aronson Park in Lakeville last weekend. Spirits were high Saturday for event in tribute to the 2004 Apple Valley High School graduate who died in Afghanistan in 2010, but the event was canceled Sunday. And in a few weeks, eight graduating seniors will receive scholarships from the Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation created in memory of Rosemount-Apple ValleyEagan School District graduate who have died in service to their country. Joel Kiekbusch of the Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation said this apparent synergy was not coordinated. “When we see something like this happen, this is the boys doing this,� Kiekbusch said. “This has nothing to do with us. There is some sort of serendipity with those five guys who make this happen. We’re just along for the ride.

Bill Lunn, author of “Heart of a Ranger: The True Story of Cpl. Ben Kopp, American Hero in Life and Death,� and Kopp’s mother, Jill Stephenson, sign copies during a book release party at Bogart’s in Apple Valley last week. “Jill (Stephenson, Kopp’s mother) calls this Benergy, which I have come to believe wholeheartedly.� State Sen. Greg Clausen, DFL-Apple Valley, introduced the bill to name the bridge. He was the principal at Rosemount High School when Kopp was a student. “I think this is a great tribute,� Clausen said. “It was an unselfish sacrifice, an act of heroism. It’s something we need to remember and preserve.� Stephenson said this is the first bridge in Minnesota to be named in honor of their fallen loved ones. “Since Ben was not laid to rest in Minnesota, it’s a great way to remember him every day when they drive past,� Stephenson said. “It’s an area he frequented when he was

alive.� Clausen said it will be paid for using private funds and put in place within the next year. Clausen said the Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation inspired him to write the bill. Kopp died when he was 21. He was shot by a sniper in Afghanistan in July 2009 and died eight days later. His life was recently memorialized in the book written by KSTP-TV anchor Bill Lunn. Stephenson and Lunn signed copies of “Heart of A Ranger� at Bogart’s Place in Apple Valley on May 19. The book was released on Stephenson’s birthday, which also wasn’t planned. “It’s overwhelming in the best way possible,� she said.

The line was out the door and organizers eventually ran out of copies to sign. Stephenson said several friends from across the nation surprised them at the signing, including a Ranger who was with Kopp when he was injured. “It was a room full of people who know and love Ben,� Stephenson said. “If they didn’t know him in life, they’ve come to know him in death. It felt like a celebration. There was nothing somber about the event.� Lunn spent more than two years working on the book and interviewed more than 50 people, including 20 Rangers for the book. Stephenson described the book as both heartwrenching and hilarious. “It beautifully captured his growing-up years and the relationship he had with his great-grandfather (who was a World War II veteran),� Stephenson said. “He interviewed the young men and ladies he spent time with. He really captured the essence of who they were. There are some funny stories in there.� It also covers Kopp’s lifesaving efforts following his death. “It’s important to remember (Kopp) was an organ donor,� Clausen said. “His heart was donated to a family friend. He was able to donate most of his major organs and he saved or helped about 60 people.� Kopp is one of five men from District 196 who paid the ultimate sacrifice. The Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation’s mission is to honor those within the district who paid the ultimate sacrifice while actively serving by providing scholarships to

young leaders and support to the community. Capt. Nathanael Doring, a 1993 graduate of Apple Valley High School served in the U.S. Marine Corps and died in 2006 while deployed in Iraq when a helicopter went down as a result of mechanical failure. Lance Cpl. Daniel Olsen of the Marine Corps was a 2005 graduate of Eagan High School. He was killed in action in 2007. First Lt. Christopher Goeke, a 2004 graduate of Apple Valley High School served with the U.S. Army Airborne and died while he was deployed in Afghanistan in 2010. Cpl. Andrew Wilfahrt of the U.S. Army Military Police, a 1997 graduate of Rosemount High School, died in 2011. “We’re a big district, but five students out of one district is striking,� Kiekbusch said. “These were stunningly talented kids. They all were phenomenal people. It’s just the type of leadership that comes out of this community.� Stephenson said it’s critical the families and students who live in District 196 know that there are people who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the district “so we can live free and go to school without fear.� The foundation has a list of things that are done in memory of these five men. This will be the fifth year of the Warrior 196 Memorial 5K Run/Walk Sept. 30 at Eastview High School. Registration will open on Memorial Day. Kiekbusch said it has raised about $36,000 in scholarships in six years. “The support has been tremendous,� Kiekbusch

said. The foundation will give out eight $2,000 scholarships during Eagan, Eastview, Rosemount and Apple Valley high school graduations in the coming weeks. “It keeps the spirit alive and it helps us remember who they are,� Stephenson said. There’s also the Ben Kopp Memorial Ride scheduled for July 19 at Bogart’s Place in Apple Valley. Stephenson said she hopes the bridge sign will be done for the memorial in Coates for a ceremony around the same time. Last spring, a street near Eagan High School was named “Cpl Daniel R Olsen Drive.� The foundation also works with Beyond the Yellow Ribbon and Operation: 23 to Zero to give support for veterans. “We’re trying to create awareness for veterans committing suicide,� Kiekbusch said. “We’re trying to raise awareness for veteran issues. We’re trying to pay it forward for these five guys in the district.� The foundation’s work is not done, either. “I would love to see County Road 42 become Memorial Parkway or something to honor all five of these men,� Kiekbusch said. “We have a lot of ideas.� The “Heart of a Ranger: The True Story of Cpl. Ben Kopp, American Hero in Life and Death� is available online via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and through its publisher www.itascabooks.com. Contact Andy Rogers at andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

LETTERS, from 4A any other country in the world. Talk to almost any senior citizen in this country and they will tell you they are very happy with Medicare health insurance. The cost is low compared to any other health care insurance and the coverage is much better. The system is in place and it works. The only problem is that you have to be at least 65 years old to be eligible. If my 7-year-old grandson were reading this he would probably ask, “So why not make it available to everyone?� Switching to a singlepayer system would save $500 billion in administrative costs alone. Everyone would have access to any doctor or hospital in the country. It is estimated that over 45,000 people die each year because of inadequate health care, and it is the No. 1 cause of bankruptcy in the USA. Lots of young people don’t have insurance now and when they have a serious accident we all wind up paying the bill. Poor people use the emergency room and we pay for this as well. One change I would make to Medicare is to allow Medicare to buy drugs at the 40 percent discount rate the Veterans Administration health care does now. Don’t take my word for it, talk to a senior citizen, do a little research, and then call your representatives and tell them what you think. DON PETERSON Burnsville

Bringing people together To the editor: We live in highly partisan times, where it is very tempting to define ourselves by what we oppose. But while I do believe there are things we should and must oppose, it is from our joint values that our future will be built. I would like to share some of my values, and why they lead me to be a member of the DFL Party. I believe people are a good investment. Whether it’s providing a living wage or ensuring access to quality education without the burden of student debt, investing in people pays off. The DFL believes this too. I believe some problems are best solved together. Standing as individuals, we are vulnerable to an unexpected major illness or an ill-timed major recession. Offering quality health care to all, and delivering on the promise of Social Security and Medicare allows us to stand together, and together we can weather whatever storms come our way. The DFL believes this too. I believe communities are built by inclusion, not exclusion. Ending social and economic injustice pulls our communities together and makes us stronger. The DFL believes this too. Together, we are stronger than the challenges we face. Together, we can realize our full potential. Together, we will build a better future. The DFL believes this. I believe it too. AARON WERSHOW Eagan

Flint Hills hosts rescue training for county firefighters Approximately 25 firefighters from Dakota County fire departments participated in a specialized rescue training session at Flint Hills Resources’ Pine Bend refinery on Saturday, May 20. During the session, firefighters practiced rescue scenarios on large process units at the Pine Bend refinery. Specific drills included rescuing mannequins from ladder cages and other elevated areas, and practicing lowering techniques using technical ropes and stretchers. This free training is part of

a partnership between Flint Hills Resources and the Dakota County Special Operations Team. “What a fantastic opportunity to be able to practice rescue techniques in a sophisticated environment like the Pine Bend refinery,� said Sam Seal, firefighter for the South Metro Fire Department and member of the Dakota County Special Operations Team. “Thanks to this training, Dakota County firefighters are now more prepared to perform rescues in elevated and challenging environments such as water towers and

Beverly M. Rudiger Beverly M. Rudiger, of Lakeville, passed away on May 18, 2017, at the age of 91. Mass of Christian Burial was held on Wednesday, May 24, 2017, at 11:00 AM with visitation one-hour prior at All Saints Catholic Church in Lakeville. Father Thomas Wilson presided, and Beverly’s grandchildren and their spouses acted as pallbearers. Beverly will be laid to rest at All Saints Catholic Cemetery in Lakeville. On November 10, 1925, Ralph and Bernice (McGinn) Ballard welcomed their daughter, Beverly Mary Ballard, into the world. Bev was the oldest of two and loved growing up in St. Paul with her younger brother, Dick. When Bev was a girl, her family owned an ice cream shop on Grand Avenue. Although she often complained about having to make the egg-salad sandwiches, Bev enjoyed working at the ice cream shop. Bev attended and graduated from St. Joe’s Academy in St. Paul where she made many lifelong friends who always referred to her as “Ballard.â€? While in school, Bev also had a close relationship with many of the nuns. On weekends, she’d borrow her Aunt Addie’s car to take the nuns for a Sunday drive. Even then, Beverly was a little mischievous; she was sure to take the corners a little too fast so the nun’s habits would tilt off kilter. After high school, Bev met a handsome young man named Clarence “Rutâ€? Rudiger. They had mutual friends and met at a local bar. She knew right away that he was WKH PDQ VKHÂśG PDUU\ $ ZKLOH LQWR WKHLU FRXUWVKLS 5XW Âżnally said, “I love youâ€? to Bev. But his declaration was met with silence. Finally, Rut asked, “Well, don’t you love me too?â€? To which Bev replied, “Ya, I doâ€?. This quickly became their signature line to each other, and Bev signed every note she wrote to Rut with, “Ya, I doâ€?. Rut and Bev were married on December 27, 1947, at St. Luke’s Catholic Church in St. Paul. They were blessed with three wonderful children, and settled in Lakeville to raise their family. As a family, they enjoyed riding horses and spending time on the lake. Bev and Rut frequently hosted beautiful dinner parties, and Bev was a wonderful homemaker. She also worked outside the home for many years. +HU ÂżUVW MRE ZDV ZLWK WKH ,56 EXW VKH ODWHU EHFDPH D EDQN WHOOHU DW 6XPPLW 6WDWH %DQN LQ 5LFKÂżHOG ,Q IDFW LW ZDV her boss at the bank that introduced her to all the fun Las Vegas had to offer. Bev loved the hustle and bustle of casinos. Whether she was in Vegas or at Mystic Lake, Bev had a good time and always came out ahead (ha ha). Bev loved having a good time, and she always had the best wit. She was quick with a funny comment and everyone loved her for it. She always seemed to know what was going on, and she never missed a beat. Beverly loved her family dearly, and was especially proud of her Irish heritage. She celebrated every St. Patrick’s Day in St. Paul. Bev always had her corner booth reserved at Gallivan’s for the festivities. Although Bev had a lot of fun, there were also some hard times in her life. She was in a terrible car accident and was badly injured. She was in a hospital bed for more than a year, but Bev was a strong woman, and she persevered. Bev was lucky to have her family by her side every step of the way. She also had a strong faith that helped her through every challenge. Bev had a lot of spunk, and she wasn’t afraid to share it with the world. Her witty comments and sassy spirit will be missed by so many. Bev will be remembered always by her children, Mike (Jean) Rudiger, Pat (Cyndy) Rudiger and Joan Rudiger; grandchildren, Michele (Chad) Urdahl, Megan (Damian) Laudenbach, Dan (Melanie) Rudiger and Rachel Rudiger; great-grandchildren, Maddie, Ava, Max, Myra, Austin, and Eli; other loving relatives and friends.

Eagan sisters find a market with their multilingual fitness studio

Seniors Apple Valley seniors

Huitzil Wellness Center offers Zumba, yoga by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Two Eagan sisters recently opened a fitness studio with hopes of guiding an under-served market along on their fitness journey. Cristina McNamara and Lelia Rodriguez opened the doors of Huitzil Wellness Center in March in Inver Grove Heights, 3105 65th Street E, Suite 600, after observing a hole in fitness market for Spanish-speaking women. McNamara said she used to attend Zumba and other fitness classes at other gyms with her mother, but they always felt a bit lost. “My mom didn’t quite understand what was going on,� McNamara said. “She didn’t feel comfortable in the setting, but we loved Zumba.� They tried a few studios with Spanish-speaking instructors, but they found them to be informal and cramped. The language barrier was a challenge. Phrases like “down dog� and “namaste� didn’t translate well. Plus, for their culture, it was strange when no one would interact. “We’re used to being more social, but in a gym you just go to your class and go home,� Rodriguez said. At Huitzil Wellness, McNamara said people will stay well after class to visit. It’s built a community for their clients. People have made connections, which has inspired them to keep coming back. They felt there would be a market for Latino women looking to improve their overall health and they’ve been right. Their studio features a store, bathrooms, a large dance floor, mirrors and mirror-balls.

Jeff Erdmann in action as the Rosemount football coach. The name comes from the Nahuatl language, which is known historically as Aztec. Huitzil is the word for hummingbird. They wanted the name to reflect an swift, agile creature they both are fond of, and feature a name unique to their culture. “It’s a bird represents beauty and strength even though it’s really small,� McNamara said. They primarily offer Zumba, which is a instructor-guided, Latin-inspired dance class, as well as yoga classes. Classes are taught by a team of about 11 instructors weekday mornings and evenings along with a class Saturday morning. “Zumba is a big party,� Rodriquez said. “People love it.� Bringing yoga to the Latino culture has been a bit of a challenge, McNamara said. “There’s a lot of misconceptions as to what it is,� McNamara said. “Yoga can sometimes be seen as another religion or cult. It’s a new concept for them, but it’s just another fitness tool. It’s a way to make a mind-body connection, heal your body faster, relax and gain some flexibility. We tell them you don’t have to do anything or say anything you don’t want to.� Zumba has had no trouble attracting a crowd. “There’s not a lot to explain,� McNamara said.

“You just follow along and dance.� The gym is open to anyone who speaks any language, but the primary clientele has been Latino females. About half of their classes are in Spanish. “It’s really open to everybody,� Rodriquez said. “You don’t have to speak Spanish to come here.� They also offer weekly workshops that go beyond physical health including workshops focused on mental health, nutrition and personal development. Huitzil Wellness Center hope to offer more classes by next month once their client base expands such as Zumba Gold for the older populations as well as a Zumba class for children. They offer both memberships and drop-in prices. Clients also have access to a kids room because the sisters recognized a lot of parents would be interested in using the studio. Although they live in Eagan, they choose Inver Grove Heights because of its close proximity to South St. Paul and West St. Paul home to a higher concentration Spanishspeaking potential clients. But they also have clients who come from all over the south metro. More information can be found at huitzilwellness.com.

Snyder will serve as executive director of EdVisions Schools, which started a network of about 40 high schools modeled after their founding school, the Minnesota New Country School, established in 1994. “I am thrilled to be able to continue to contribute to the advancement and innovation of public education, specifically in the areas of personalized learning. student-driven learning and teacher empowerment,� Snyder said in an email to the newspaper. Snyder declined an interview, saying in her email she believes the focus should be on District 194 and the new administration.

Sports Wasmund steps down after 5 titles in 5 years Coach is key component of AVHS wrestling dynasty by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Dalen Wasmund, an assistant coach for Apple Valley High School’s first state championship wrestling team and head coach of the Eagles’ 21st through 25th championship squads, has announced his retirement. Wasmund, who will remain at AVHS as a math teacher, coached wrestling in District 196 for 35 years. He arrived at Apple Valley in 1982 and was an assistant coach for eight years. The Eagles won their first state championship in 1983 and earned two more titles in the decade. In 1990, he was named head wrestling coach at Eagan High School and stayed there 10 years. Wasmund returned to the Apple Valley program in 2000 as an assistant coach, giving him the opportunity to coach his sons in football

and wrestling. Apple Valley won state wrestling championships in 16 of Wasmund’s final 17 years in the program. Wasmund became head coach in 2012 after Jim Jackson stepped down, and the Eagles won state Class 3A championships in each of his five seasons in charge. Apple Valley wrestlers won 18 individual state championships during Wasmund’s tenure as head coach, and he coached two of the Eagles’ most dominant performers. Mark Hall won four of his state-record six individual championships during Wasmund’s tenure as head coach. In March, Eagles junior Gable Steveson completed his third consecutive undefeated season. Wasmund was a twotime state champion at Worthington High School and a two-time All-American at the University of Minnesota. Wasmund was a member of two U.S. teams for the world championships and was a twotime U.S. Olympic alter-

nate. His awards include national assistant coach of the year in 2011, Minnesota Wrestling Coaches Association coach of the year in 2017 and National Wrestling Coaches Association coach of the year for Minnesota, also in 2017. Apple Valley High School is seeking a head wrestling coach for only the fourth time in its history. Bill Demaray founded the program in 1976 and served as head coach until 1995. Jackson was head coach from 1995 to 2012 before being succeeded by Wasmund.

Doughty named girls hoops coach Bryan Doughty will be the new Apple Valley girls basketball coach, the school announced Monday. He replaces Jeremy Gordon, who resigned after eight years as head coach. Previously, Doughty was boys varsity assistant coach at Stillwater High School, and a boys and girls assistant coach

at White Bear Lake. He was an assistant coach for White Bear Lake teams that reached the state tournament in 2015 and 2016. In 2014, he was named assistant coach of the year in Class 4A. Doughty is a graduate of Anoka High School, where he played on a state championship team in 1992 and a state runnerup team in 1993. He was a Mr. Basketball Award finalist his senior year. He played college basketball at University of Wisconsin-Stout and St. John’s and later coached the St. John’s junior varsity team for two years. Apple Valley was 21-7 in 2016-17, its best season under Gordon. The Eagles finished third in the South Suburban Conference behind state tournament qualifiers Lakeville North and Eastview, and were in the top five of the state Class 4A rankings. Apple Valley graduates four seniors, including 2,000-point career scorer Lyndsey Robson, but will return 15 varsity and junior varsity players.

Lightning stays in control, remains No. 1 Three Eastview players have hat tricks in showdown against Eagan by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The battle for the South Suburban Conference boys lacrosse lead – and the state’s No. 1 ranking – came down to which team could dictate the pace of the game. That turned out to be Eastview, which contained Eagan’s high-flying offense in a 12-7 homefield victory May 18. The victory assured Eastview of at least a tie for the SSC championship, and the Lightning went on to win it outright by defeating Shakopee 12-5 on Tuesday. Eastview also is the likely No. 1 seed in the Section 6 playoffs, which begin next week. The Lightning (13-0 overall, 9-0 SSC) scored five goals in the second quarter to take a 7-2 lead into halftime. Eagan lost for the first time in 12 games and was held to fewer than 11 goals for the first time this season. The Wildcats finished the regular season 12-1 after defeating Lakeville North 12-8 on Tuesday. “The big thing for us was to force them to play 6-on-6, make them set up,” Eastview coach Tim Roche said. “Eagan is really dangerous when they’re able to fast-break. For the most part, we were able to keep them from doing that.” Eastview goalie Jackson Beran foiled some of the Wildcats’ best scoring chances, stopping 11 of the 18 shots he faced. “He should be in the conversation for the Mr.

Rosemount’s girls and Prior Lake’s boys held the lead after the first day of the South Suburban Conference track and field meet at Lakeville South High School. Finals in eight events – three girls field events, three boys field events and the 3,200-meter races for boys and girls – took place on Tuesday. All other finals were scheduled Wednesday. The second day of the meet was still in progress at Sun Thisweek print edition deadline. Highlights of the first day of competition included conference records in two events. Farming-

Eastview’s Noah Lindner spins away from Eagan defender Ben Vecellio during the Lightning’s 12-7 victory May 18. Lacrosse award,” Roche said of Beran. “He played a great game. He’s played a lot of great games for us.” Eagan had a huge advantage on faceoffs – the Wildcats’ Joseph Hofmann won 18 of the game’s 23 draws – but couldn’t convert that into consistent offense. Eastview, meanwhile, operated quickly and efficiently when it had the ball. The Lightning scored on 12 of its 21 shots and three of its players (Noah Lindner, Noah Joseph and Joe Stillings) had hat tricks. Stillings, a junior midfielder, turned in the game’s highlight play in the fourth quarter, passing the ball behind his head to Joseph, who finished. That’s the type of play you’re more likely to see from a team with a

comfortable lead – which Eastview had at the time – but it also shows “we’re a pretty unselfish team,” Roche said. Eastview has seven players with 10 goals or more, but much of the offense goes through Stillings, Lindner and Joseph, each of whom has at least 22 goals and 41 points. Eagan senior attacker Brandon Wuertz had four goals and an assist against Eastview. He has a teamhigh giving him 47 goals this season. The Wildcats also got two goals from Aaron Propson, giving him 29 for the season, third most on the team. The Wildcats are likely to be the top seed in the Section 3 playoffs. Rosemount, which has a sixgame winning streak and is 9-2 overall, appears to

be in line for the No. 2 seed. Six of the 10 teams in Section 3 have winning records. Eagan is expected to open the playoffs at home with a quarterfinal game June 2. Eastview remains ranked first in the state by mnlaxhub.com. The Lightning also is first in the minnesota-scores.net Quality Results Formula rankings and the laxpower.com Ratings Percentage Index. The Lightning is expected to open the Section 6 playoffs at home June 2. Defending state champion Prior Lake, which Eastview defeated 10-5 on May 16, appears to be the best bet to receive the No. 2 seed in Section 6.

ton eighth-grader Anna Fenske shattered the SSC record in the girls 3,200, winning in 10 minutes, 26.19 seconds, almost 20 seconds ahead of the previous conference record by Eagan’s Danielle Anderson in 2012. Fenske’s teammate, Lauren Peterson, was second in 10:58.13. Fenske and Peterson, who were first and second in the state Class AA girls cross country meet in November, were favorites in the 1,600 on Wednesday. Rosemount sophomore Alexys Berger cleared 5 feet, 6.25 inches in the high jump to take first and set a conference record. Berger shared the previous conference record of 5-6, which she jumped at the 2016 SSC meet. Burnsville eighth-grader Sophie Nilsson won the girls long jump with 17-3,

edging Rosemount’s Shae Buchman by a quarterinch. Tatiana Donlan of Eastview was the girls discus champion with 127-10, with Apple Valley ninthgrader Madison Reed taking second. Lakeville South seniors Eric Rousemiller and Noah Shafer won field events on the first day of the conference meet, as did Lakeville North senior Alexander Hunter. Rousemiller won the shot put with a throw of 57-6.25, about 10 inches short of the conference record he set last year. Rosemount’s Trevor Otterdahl and Maxwell Otterdahl were second and third. Shafer did not have his best day in the pole vault – he has cleared 15-3 this spring – but went 13-6 on Tuesday, which was good enough to win the conference championship.

Hunter won the boys triple jump with 44-1.5, more than a foot ahead of Eagan’s Grant Oettinger, the runner-up. Rosemount’s Luke Labatte, Eagan’s Joe Kelly, Burnsville’s Nathaniel Blichfeldt and Eastview’s Bryant Ruff were second through fifth in the boys 3,200, an event won by Prior Lake senior Colin Dwyer. All 10 South Suburban Conference girls teams scored points on the first day of the meet. Rosemount led with 39 points, with Lakeville South and Prior Lake tied for second with 28. Prior Lake led the boys team competition with 45 points, 11 more than second-place Lakeville South. Contact Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

a finalist for the Class 2A Ms. Soccer award as well as the Miss Minnesota Basketball award. She led North to state tournament appearances in both sports. Female finalists for the award included Eastview girls hockey player Natalie Snodgrass. Ryan Duffy of South St. Paul was the Lions male athlete of the year. Finalists included Eastview football player, wrestler and track and field athlete Mike Delich, Lakeville North basketball player Nathan Reuvers and Lakeville North football player, wrestler and track and field athlete Wade Sullivan.

Shorthanded Cats go to state When you have eight players in a sport that allows you to use nine, that’s a built-in disadvantage. But the Blazing Cats PI Division adapted softball players haven’t let it keep them from succeeding. The team went 5-5 in the regular season and has qualified for the state tournament for the first time. The state tourney is June 2-3 at Coon Rapids High School. Dakota United, which includes Apple Valley and Eastview high schools, has clinched a state berth in the PI Division and is competing for one in the CI Division playoffs this week. The Blazing Cats are a co-op program that includes Burnsville, Farmington, Lakeville North and Lakeville South.

Property around Marcott Lakes permanently protected Dakota County, working with the Grannis family, has permanently protected a large tract of property identified by the state, county, and the city of Inver Grove Heights as being important for its water quality, wildlife habitat and scenic beauty. Located south of Highway 55 and east of Highway 3, the area locally known as the Marcott Valley, consists of a series of deep, interconnected lakes and wetlands with surrounding forests and grasslands. Since 2008, Dakota County has worked with three Grannis families to protect 17 acres, and with the Lindberg family to protect an adjacent 103 acres within Marcott Valley. Similar to these previous land protection projects, this latest project

involved the acquisition of a permanent 108-acre conservation easement that includes the largest, deepest and cleanest of the Marcott Lakes. Future residential development is restricted and former agricultural areas will be restored with native grasses and flowers. These properties are still private, but the public will be able to visit the protected area through programs and classes offered by the recently established Darvan Acres Outdoor Skills and Environmental Education Center. “We are happy that one of the most prominent and important natural features of Dakota County will now be permanently protected for current and future generations to enjoy,� said Mike Slavik, chair, Dakota County Board of

Commissioners. The cost of the conservation easement was $3.9 million, and $2.9 million was provided from the state Outdoor Heritage Fund, as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature. Dakota County provided $1 million and the landowners also made a significant donation. In addition, the Grannis family and the county agreed to an option whereby the county can acquire the fee title to 125 acres of the protected Grannis family property at no cost in seven years. The Grannis family continues to own a home and additional buildings on seven acres with provisions to transfer future ownership to an educational organization or the county.

SENIORS, from 1A to major in biology and to pursue a career in dentistry. I knew when I was fairly young that I wanted to be a dentist because people often tell me that I have a nice smile and teeth. It is one of the qualities that I am proud of. I want to help others to have a confident smile. I also consider it as an art form. I would love to work with my hands and to be challenged mentally; however, I wasn’t sure about being in other’s personal space so I did a field experience program through my school. I got a chance to shadow a dentist and got a first hand experience. The field experience program made me feel confident that dentistry is the right field for me. What has been the most important thing you have learned in your high school career? What makes it important? How will you apply that to the next phase of your life? The most important thing I have learned during my high school career is how to be more extroverted and to be willing to voice my opinions. I grew up as a shy kid, quiet at school but loud at home. But high school taught me to not be afraid to be different. It’s better to have people disagree with you than for them to not hear you at all. It’s a valuable skill because no matter what job I do in the future I have to be able to take my stance and learn to be a team leader. Who has been your most influential mentor? What has the person done to motivate you or accomplish what you have? The most influential person of my life would be my mom. The educational opportunities in my home country, ThaiBELLMORE, from 1A about that, except his daughter Cathy is bringing out some more things that Howard wouldn’t say for a long time about the war.� Howard and Lyle both went on to railroad careers. Lyle died of a heart attack in 1986, Gary said. Leon Bellmore was the family’s lone draftee, called to serve in the Army in 1951. He served stateside and learned the electrical trade. Marvin and Ronald both enlisted in the Army as teenagers in 1952. “If I’m not mistaken, both of them had to have my parents’ permission to enlist,� Gary said. Marvin served in France and Ronald in Korea, he said. Next came Benjamin,

land, are very limited in comparison to those in America. So, my mom moved from her home for the better of my education. I saw how hard she worked for me and she taught me to value education. Therefore, when I am tired, I always think of what she has done for me and that I shouldn’t disappoint her. My main goal is to have a good job in the future so I can take good care of my parents. My most influential mentor would be my middle school science teacher, Mr. Humbert. He was a teacher who students would never forget. He was always positive and cheerful. He showed me what it’s like to do what you love and I wish I could be as happy as he is doing my future job. He showed me that he cares about all of his students and he believed in me when I doubted myself.

who enlisted in the Marines after graduating high school. He wound up as a military policeman in Lebanon and went into insurance after his four-year hitch. Gary, who moved to town with his mother after his parents separated, recalls — despite her warnings — falling in with a pal named Emil who had been to reform school. Gary and Emil went to another town one day and lifted a gun and a camera from a car. “Emil was out of school, and we needed money for beer, is what it was,� Gary said. Emil resold the bounty, was fingered by the law and gave up his accomplice. One day in school the principal summoned

Gary to the office, where a sheriff’s deputy waited. “I had a court date,� Gary said. “But in the meantime, the recruiters from the various (military) branches had been to our school and given their presentation. This is how I wound up in the Air Force: The Air Force recruiter came to court and went to bat for me. He said, ‘This kid, it’s the first time he’s ever done anything — can we make a deal?’ � Gary spent his first two years of service at Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma, where he repaired hydraulics and pneumatics in underground nuclear missile silos. During the Cuban Missile Crisis he worked on practice launches at two “training sites� that need-

What has been the most important thing you have learned in your high school career? What makes it important? How will you apply that to the next phase of your life? The most important thing that I’ve learned from high school is that hard work always pays off. Whether in sports or academically there is no shortcut to true success, only hard work. I believe that hard work is important because without it you won’t get or accomplish what you want in life. Also there is no better feeling than achieving something that you worked hard for. In the future I hope to apply hard work in everything that I do. Who has been your most influential mentor? What has the person done to motivate you or accomplish what you have? The most influential mentor of my high school career has to be my freshman year English teacher, Kristine Valdivia (Eastview High School). She always pushed me to give the best of my abilities and to strive for success. Most importantly she taught me the values of dedication and humility.

Maldini Zambrano Mora

What activities or areas of study have you focused on in high school? I mainly have focused on sports because as a student-athlete I want to be able to leave high school knowing I was Maldini able to do something I Zambrano love and look back at my Mora Contact Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecmhigh school career happily that I did the best I could in everything inc.com or at twitter.com/editorTJ. ed only an infusion of liquid oxygen for the fuel mix to make them operational. “We had to get them ready for war because people were pretty jacked up over the Cuban deal,� Gary said. “They would take the platform up to the top and lock it and hit the abort button once it got up there.� One day he was in the basement of a silo with the missile platform above when an air line with 6,000 pounds of pressure blew out, which “just shook us to our very toes for about 10 minutes. I suffered a certain hearing loss from that. Eventually those missiles became obsolete, and I went into the training field.� Which means “for the last four or five years I

flew a desk,� said Gary, who served seven years and four months. He then worked at paper mills in Massachusetts and steel mills in Wisconsin and Illinois before becoming a railroad brakeman in 1970. Sixteen years later he took a buyout and worked for 27 years for the Walker Methodist senior homes. He was a nurse’s aide, housekeeper, maintenance man and activities aide. An indifferent Catholic growing up and now a devout Christian, Gary also spent a year as a chaplain. “I say I went from driving trains to easing pains,� said Gary, who loved to “walk around playing my guitar and singing songs to the old people.� He and his wife, Faith,

whom he met while both were living in Walker Methodist apartments, now live at the Valley Ridge senior homes and attend Eagle Heights Church in Burnsville. The city of Burnsville honored him and his family’s military service with a social media posting on May 20, Armed Forces Day. “This is not for a feather in my cap, absolutely not,� said Gary, who still has 10 living siblings. “But it’s I guess maybe to help show that America’s always been worth it, and always will be worth fighting for.� Contact John Gessner at john.gessner@ecm-inc.com or 952-846-2031.

I did. What will you be doing upon graduation? What education or career path do you hope to pursue? Why have you selected that path? I have chosen to go to the military, mainly the U.S. Marine Corps because I want to be able to serve our great country, challenge myself and push my limits and to discover what great things I can do that I didn’t think I could do. I hope to pursue a career in law enforcement because I want to have different experiences, be an influence to my two younger brothers and be helpful to the people in the community. What has been the most important thing you have learned in your high school career? What makes it important? How will you apply that to the next phase of your life? The most important thing I learned in high school is how to adapt to unexpected changes in everyday life because it will come in very inconvenient times and we all must learn to react and adapt to those changes. Who has been your most influential mentor? What has the person done to motivate you or accomplish what you have? My mother has been a huge influence in my life because she has gone through hell and back and she always reminds me of how important my decisions are today that could help me or hurt me tomorrow. She is someone who I want to be proud of me because she is the only one who has been by my side and always will be in whatever I do in life.
