Sharing Good News
His assignment necessitated his flying combat missions as an observer. On one such mission, his plane was disabled to such an extent that everyone who was onboard had to abandon their craft by use of parachute. Col. Bennett was captured and spent his prisoner of war days at Stalag Luft 1, located in Barth, Germany. It was here that I came to know him. Let me share the blessing he became to all confined by putting his expertise to work keeping
us abreast of the progress of the battles as they were fought. He secured, through the guards, a radio that he reassembled in our barracks attic and gave us nightly news fort the British Broadcasting Company. We got the good news, as well as the bad, in a pow-wow just for us. Then, on May 8, 1945, he became our bearer of the news of the peace resulting from VE Day. I will never forget the contribution he made to the 10,000 prisoners who listened attentively

citizens of Fannin County? Commissioners? The committee? (2) Can the yearly payment of $100,000 from NTMWD and the solar farms be counted on to pay for the new building? What is the revenue from the solar farms? (3) Are we currently paying $200,000 per month for rent or $12,000? (4) Did the vote taken on item 14 on April 23rd satisfy the “vote” stated in bullet #1? If so, does it preclude any further voting on whether a new building is to be built? (5) Is the intention of the court to adopt the recommendation of the committee?

Commissioners
Continued from page 8
The additional coverage will cost $8,908.00 per annum plus a pro-rated amount of $1,147.00 for the dates of May 15, 2019 through July 1, 2019– County Judge for County Purchasing Agent – Michelle Case stated that Turner Construction requires the county to have a Builder’s Risk Policy. County learned that their current policy is for $5 million with Texas Association of Counties (TAC). It needs to be $20 million during construction to cover the possibility of a fire, tornado or other damage to the building. TAC will insure for the additional $15 million for an annual cost of $8,908. Michelle stated that another company quoted them $92,500. The money will be taken from the Contingency Fund, where there is currently a balance of $211,000. Commissioner Lackey commented that the county will need to continue high coverage after the courthouse is finished because $5 million of coverage will not be enough. Commissioner Lackey moved to obtain the extra coverage during construction. Commissioner Magness seconded. Motion carried. 12. Discussion, Consideration and Action to hire Jimmy Page Auction House with a 10% commission to auction large items such as vehicles and heavy equipment no longer in use by the county on June 8, 2019 at 9:30 am – County Judge for County Purchasing Agent – Commissioner Whitlock made a motion to hire Jimmy Page for the auction. Commissioner Magness
seconded. Motion carried. 13. Consideration and Action to approve payment of bills – County Judge for County Auditor – Commissioner Whitlock made a motion to pay the bills. Commissioner Lackey seconded. Motion carried. 14. Comments by County Commissioners and County Judge: • Commissioner Whitlock stated that there has been a lot of rain lately and he appreciates the community for helping remove brush from the ditches and doing whatever they can to help out. Savoy had a cleanup this past weekend. They had some good volunteers and did a good job. • Commissioner Self said that he has seen people picking up trash in his area and he really appreciates it. Bad weather coming in, be safe and if anyone sees a tree down or something to call him. • Commissioner Magness said that storms are coming. The last storms caused a lot of limbs to come down and a couple of trees in Lamasco. • Commissioner Lackey
believes that the cleaning of the courthouse will begin the end of next week. Cleanup went well and he will bring the numbers next week. TCOG spent about $155,000 on this cleanup. Since the asphalt plant pulled their application, Lackey had a chance to speak with TXDOT and learned some interesting numbers. The traffic count for the exit off 82 at McDonalds (west side) in a 24 hour period of time is 11,749 cars. The blinking light on 78 close to the sale barn was 6,226 cars in a 24 hour period of time. One more little tidbit, the blinking light on 82, where the trucks would have crossed for the asphalt plant, will not be there, when 82 is finished, the blinking light will be down by the Church of God. • Judge Moore encouraged everyone (whether out walking or doing other activates) to carry a trash bag and pick up trash to help our county look great. Next week there will not be Commissioners Court because of an out of town workshop. Judge Moore responded to
Thanks to everyone that supported me in the elections and on the city council. I appreciate the opportunity to serve. Congratulations to Tim! Jet Trubey Paid For By Campaign To Re-Elect John Trubey
some of Mike Nejtek’s questions from Public Forum: 1. The committee will bring their recommendations to Commissioners Court, who will then act on what takes place in the county. 2. At this time we are looking at the money from NTMWD and the solar farms to help fund the Justice Center. We cannot look at a real figure until the committee is able to meet and tell us what they need and what the center is going to look like. The $5 million mentioned was just an estimate. It could be $3 million or $18 million. 3. An annual estimate on revenue from solar farms is: one is $55,000, another is possibly $65,000, another
$17,500, and other solar farms are looking at locating here in Fannin County. 4. The county is currently paying $12,800 for rent a month. 5. The reason Commissioners Court created the committed was to get their
input. Extremely excited about Lake Fannin and appreciate the many volunteers. Many people have come forward in the last month, asking to become a volunteer for Lake Fannin.

A homeless shelter in Fannin County is about to become a reality! Open Arms Shelter hopes to be open sometime this summer or early fall. The building at 1205 Albert Broadfoot was purchased in September of 2018. We had a matching grant from IWSL to purchase the building. Thanks to generous donations from many people, we met the matching grant well ahead of our one-year deadline.

Securities offered through Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. member FINRA/SIPC Investment Advisory Services offered through Raymond James Financial Services Advisors, Inc.
In a fee-based account, clients pay a quarterly fee, based on the level of assets in the account, for the services of a financial advisor as part of an advisory relationship. In deciding to pay a fee rather than commissions, client should understand that the fee may be higher than a commission alternative during periods of lower trading. Advisory fees are in addition to the internal expenses charged by mutual funds and other investment company securities. To the extent that clients intend to hold these securities, the internal expenses should be included when evaluating the costs of a fee-based account. Clients should periodically re-evaluate whether the use of an asset-based fee continues to be appropriate in servicing their needs.

Mothers
This Sunday will be the twelfth of May. I hope no one will forget it is Mother’s Day. No one possesses a heart so gentle and kind As the one controlled by a mother’s mind. When we were young and immature In our mother’s arm we felt secure. Friends are made and friends may part But my mother will always have a place in my heart. Only the wisdom from God up above Could have created a person with a mother’s love. When we stray from the paths she has laid Our conscience says no and makes us afraid. As we ponder our minds with recollection We picture our mothers with love and affection. It makes you wonder how life would be Without a mother’s love and security. I hope we will not forget to pray For the person we honor on Mother’s Day. By Doyle Chapman Dodd City, Texas

Local Group Quilts for Charity, Holds Annual Garage Sale Every Tuesday a group of women from Leonard, Trenton, Van Alstyne, and “the County” get together in an oldfashioned “calling” of a quilting bee. They have been quilting
together for about the last 20 years, using fabric that has been mostly donated to them. They “tie” about three quilts a week, depending on the size of the quilt and the size of the
4-02-19 group. They talk about a little of
everything, and are convinced if needed, they could settle the problems of the world. In 2017, the group decided they would make a lap quilt for
each of the veterans in Bonham’s Clyde Cosper Nursing Home. So, in less than three months, they did. Mind you, this was basically five women doing the vast majority of the work, although they would nev-

er ask for the credit. The group quilts for agencies such as C.A.S.A., the American Red Cross, the Pregnancy Center,11-20-18 Fannin County Family Crisis Center, and more. On May 17 and 18 they will
be holding their annual garage sale to earn money to purchase batting, thread, and other supplies. Please consider coming out and supporting this group. The sale will be held at 806 S. Pearl in Trenton.

RICHARD WARREN
Funeral Services for Richard Warren, age 52 of Melissa, TX were held on Saturday, May 11, 2019 at First Melissa Church, 2101 E Melissa Rd, Melissa, TX 75454, under the direction of Wise Funeral Home. Pastor Trey Graham officiated. Interment followed at Duplex Cemetery in Duplex Community, TX, with Mr. David Hinds assisting. Richard passed away on May 2, 2019. He was born April 8,
1967 in Pittsfield, ME to Carol Ann Poulliotte Sager. Richard married Misty Ann Eubanks on March 11, 2006 in Honey Grove, TX. I saw a man walk into the arms of Jesus and it was the most beautiful thing I have ever witnessed. To know him, was to love him. And he never met a stranger. These might just be common phrases, but they are a true depiction of who Richard Warren was. Richard, born April 8th 1967 leaves behind a legacy of laughter, strength, and service. Richard, loved cracking jokes and he often cracked himself up; not being able to get through a story because of his own laughter. And that laugh, was so contagious. Even in his very last days, Richard had a smile on his face. He always had a smile on his face when he was on his motorcycle. Richard, loved riding his Harley. Mostly, to go for something to eat. Olive Garden being his favorite. He and Misty went on many rides together. She often refers to it as her ‘Happy Place,’ on the back of Richard’s motorcycle. Richard’s strength has inspired the many who know him. Besides giving cancer a good fight for 3 long years, he had to fight early in his life. Finding himself in some trouble as a young man, Richard ended up at Oklahoma Lions Boy’s Ranch. There, he learned many lessons. Lessons that shaped him into a man of strength. He also found a family there. At the age of 13, for the first time, he experienced sitting around a dinner table with a mom, dad, sisters and brothers. A family who loved him and always rooted for him. Richard also knew strength as he served in the United States Marine Corps. He was always so proud he had served. Richard had a servant’s heart. And he loved serving and sowing into others. As a member of First Melissa, you’d often find him serving in some capacity whether it was leading a home group or a Wednesday night university. He alongside, others in his church, formed the Hope Cancer Support Ministry. Even asking, adamantly, during his last days that in lieu of flowers, donations be made there. Richard always considered the people he worked with as family. Beginning his career at Lee Lewis Construction, he not only built buildings, but relationships that would last a lifetime. And, finishing his career with Joeris General Contractors, a company that walked alongside him during his cancer journey, always encouraging and supporting not only him, but his family as well. Richard’s most beloved legacy is his 5 children and 5 grandchildren. He loved them so well. He was a favorite with his grandkids; always up for a good time usually involving a fun activity and a sweet treat. He was even excited to take his youngest grandson to Paw Patrol Live just a few months ago. Now, that’s a good Papaw! After a long, hard fought battle with cancer, Richard, now has a brand new set of lungs and can breath easily walking the streets of gold with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. A tear was in his eye as entered the gates, and we know the heavenly realm rejoiced as they welcomed him home. Richard was preceded in death by his mother, Carol Poulliotte Sager; and dad, Joe Allen Hooser. Surviving are his wife of 13 years, Misty Eubanks Warren; children, Rebeka Beavers and her husband Greg, Ashley
Womble and her husband Dean, Ben Caldwell, Nathan Warren, and Caiti Warren; five grandchildren, Levi Beavers, Macy Beavers, Rylee Caldwell, Carson Womble and Briar Womble; three sisters, Toni Whitehead and husband Frank of Noble, OK, Karla Martinez and husband Johnny of Lexington, KY and Robin Craycraft and husband David of Perkins, OK; five brothers, Randy Warren of Phoenix, AZ, Ronny Warren of Phoenix, AZ, Robby Warren of Sangre, TX, Mike Hooser and wife Miriam of Cypress, TX and Jon Hooser of Noble, OK.; and mom, Maurice Hooser of Noble, OK, and several nieces and nephews. Pallbearers were Dean Womble, Greg Beavers, Mike Hooser, Jon (Shawn) Hooser, Frank Whitehead, Nathan Warren. Honorary Pallbearers will be Levi Beavers, Carson Womble, Tyler Dodson, Benjamin Caldwell. An online guestbook is available at www. wisefuneralhome.com. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Hope Cancer Support Ministry at First Melissa Church, 2101 E Melissa Rd, Melissa, TX 75454.

Busted by the ‘Gram On March 29 a Real County game warden received an Operation Game Thief wildlife crimestoppers hotline call about a video of someone shooting a turkey off the roadside. The warden contacted the caller and they stated there was a video on Instagram of a male subject shooting a turkey out of a truck window. Upon viewing the video, the warden recognized the area near Barksdale, and referencing images of the individual’s truck and license plate that also were posted to that Instagram account was able to gain the suspect’s ID and address in Laredo. The warden enlisted assistance from a Webb County game warden, who interviewed the subject and his accomplice, and gained confessions to shooting the turkey from a public road. Several citations were issued to both subjects and the cases are pending. Left the Life Jacket at Camp A kayaker learned recently the hard way that a life jacket doesn’t work unless you wear it. On March 30 Bexar County game wardens responded by boat to assist a San Antonio man who was in distress after his kayak had flipped over at Calaveras Lake. A fisherman met the wardens at the boat ramp and pointed to the victim about 100 yards from shore struggling in rough water. Wind gusts were at about 20 mph as both wardens approached the struggling kayaker, who was drifting further into the lake. The wardens observed the man go underwater at one point as they got close, but were able to grab hold of him. After assessing his condition, the wardens secured the kayak and returned to shore. An examination of the kayak revealed a crack in the hull, which may have contributed to the accident. When asked why he wasn’t wearing a life jacket the victim explained that his life jacket was back at the camping site and he forgot to bring it. The man was issued a citation for not having a life jacket while operating the kayak.

Property Tax Time – Tips for a Protest
By Sandy Hood
The Bonham Chamber of Commerce hosted a seminar on Property Taxes. The speaker was Renetta Bailey, a member of the Collin County Appraisal Review Board since 2000. She gave a short seminar on the procedures and processes associated with protesting your appraisal from the Fannin County Appraisal District. Ms. Bailey has extensive knowledge of sales, purchases and investments, both residential and Commercial. She is also an investor and general contractor. Knowing both sides of the industry, she understands the opportunities and the challenges, the strengths and weaknesses of the importance of how protesting your taxes can be. I attended this seminar and wanted to share some of the information for those who could not attend. Pointers I took away from the seminar are: • Read your appraisal notice carefully, including the small print. • There are 2 ways to protest your property taxes. (1) Informal Protest – You show up at the County Appraisal District (CAD) between April 16th to May 15th and ask to meet with a licensed appraiser. You then explain why your taxes should be lowered (bring your evidence if you have any). The appraiser will make a ruling on the spot to either lower the value or not. This is a first come first served service. (2) Formal Protest

Also Spring-ing into State: Advances in 1600m, 3200m net goal for Leonard x-country standout Shaw the State girls cross country competition placed her in the company this decade of alumnae Chelsea Brockus and Jessi Bennett. However, unlike those graduates, also making spring trips to State in track had eluded the junior. Last year, Shaw took fifth in the 1600m and 3200m at the Region II-3A Meet. Her points earned helped Leonard win a regional meet championship -en route to a later Leonard’s Audrey Shaw. Photo by state meet title -- but her season Rich Hilliard ended at the former By Rich Hilliard meet. “It’s a lot easier to go to LEONARD -- Before this State in cross country,” said spring, Audrey Shaw had Shaw. “I would always get already made herself note- to regionals in track and fall worthy at Leonard High out.” School as a standout runThat did not happen this ner. spring. Consecutive fall trips to Shaw qualified as the Re-
gion II-3A girls champion in the 1600m and 3200m for the Class 2A girls state track and field championships at the University of Texas at Austin on May 10-11. “I made it a goal of mine to make it to State [in track] ... to make one of the 8-9 spots,” said Shaw, also an 800m regional qualifier. “It’s a big deal to make it for me.” The championships came after Shaw rebounded in the 1600m at the regional to continue advancing in multiple events. She finished in 5:22.92 at the regional -she posted a 5:35.06 finish at the Area Meet. “My Area Meet time [in the 1600m] was not my best,” said Shaw who at the Area event secured the fourth and final regional qualifier spot in the 1600m. “I had been improving in the 800m and two-mile,” she said, “but in the Area Meet, I had already run four miles [by the 1600m competition]. I struggled a lot in the mile. “At the regional, we dropped the 800m for me so I could get my time where it needed to be [in the 1600].” Shaw, who won
District 10-3A championships last month in the 1600m and 3200m to start her first trek to State track, also improved in 3200m -- finishing in 11:48.36 at the regional compared to 11:57.23 at the Area Meet. Times served as an objective this spring for Leonard where breaking school records she said was a goal. “I’ve already broken the two-mile [school record] and will work on the mile at State,” said Shaw on May 6, a few days before the pinnacle meet of the season. “The big thing has been to focus on me pushing myself to go faster,” she said. “regardless of anyone else.” Other than Pilot Point sophomore Brisa Hernandez, Shaw expected to see “a lot of strangers” at the State meet. “I’ve run with her since my sophomore year. She’s the only one I’ve gotten to know,” said Shaw. “I talk a lot before races. I hope to make new friends.”
Play awaits Ector on State courts, links
ECTOR -- Nathan Essary and J. B. Johnson’s advance last May to the Class 1A state boys tennis doubles quarterfinals for Ector affected them. “It was a major confidence builder,” said Essary, “but we know we have to play better to do what we can. “We started practicing more since expectations were higher now,” he said. “Our goal this year was to meet and exceed those expectations.” “I think we have shown major improvement this year,” said Johnson. “Having been before, it eased the pressure we felt this year, but we still have to try to do the best we can to get as far as we can.” The junior duo, who will re-
turn to State at Texas A&M University -- this time as the Region III-1A boys doubles champion -- also inspired a teammate who in boys singles will be making his State debut. “Last year, when J. B. and Nathan returned, they told us of their State experience,” said Nelms, who qualified as a regional runner-up. “It will be fun [at State] and I am looking forward to it,” he said. “It will be amazing to be able to witness all the great tennis players.” Meanwhile, junior Joey Grijalva and senior Destiny Whitburn didn’t start this year playing together -- but will end it doing so in the 1A State mixed doubles competition. They also advanced as a regional runner-up to State,

SAVOY -- Senior Alyssa McCauley thought she had played her final volleyball match for an organized team last November for Savoy. With no ensuing club play, mom April McCauley said Alyssa’s future plans included a trip to California to the Musicians Institute. An extension of Alyssa’s volleyball career into college didn’t seem probable. “I didn’t think it was an option,” said Alyssa McCauley. However, the final days of head volleyball coach Kristi Tallon’s battle with cancer -to which she succumbed in April -- prompted Alyssa to look into some colleges. On May 7, Alyssa McCauley signed her nation letter of intent in the Savoy High School gym to play volleyball for Bethany College of Kansas, with family, friends, coaches and other well-wishers on hand. “I had applied to Bethany College and they contacted district and now go to State.” The quintet will be joined in State competition this month by junior classmate Austin Earl, who will make his first advance that far in 1A boys golf.

Heritage Day Festivities a BLAST!
By Sandy Hood
The Heritage Day Celebration has become a spectacular event to attend in Fannin County. There is something for everyone: Car Show, Face Painting, Gospel Music, Dog Shows, Live Music, and a Parade and so much more. Businesses set up booths with games, prizes, items to buy and information. I have to say, one of my favorite events was the dog competitions, and what made it even more fun was the human that dressed up like a dog, and actually won prizes. At 9:30pm, there was still amazing live music and people playing Corn Hole on the square. It is fun being in the community and seeing so many people enjoying themselves, smiling and laughing. A BIG THANK YOU goes out to all that worked so hard to put this event together, and to all the sponsors that supported this free event. This was the 13th year this event has successfully captured the spirit of Fannin County. I look forward to next year’s event! Photos by Sandy Hood
