Tornado strikes Carrollton By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press National Weather Service officials have confirmed a tornado touched down on the west side of Carrollton late Friday night causing damage to at least two businesses and affecting several homes in the area. There were no tornado watches or warnings listed for the area at the time the twister struck. According to the NWS, the tornado was listed as an EF-1. The Enhanced Fujita Scale classifies an EF-1 as a weak tornado with winds measuring from 86 to 110 miles per hour. The tornado originated at approximately 11:20 p.m. 3.2 miles southwest of Carrollton and dissipated 14 minutes later 1.5 miles northeast of Carrollton. The damages ranged from fallen trees smashing vehicles to the roof being ripped off a modular home in the 900 block of South Main. The parts of the roof, which

were not laying in the yards of several neighbors, were caught high up in a tree. The top half of a tall evergreen tree located in the 400 block of 10th Street came to rest two houses down, after literally being sheared in two. Around the corner, a board jammed through the side of a vacant house. Several residents in Pohlman’s Trailer Court reported damage. Two businesses were also hit – Tri-County FS located on Rt. 108 and Rt. 108 Resale, also located on the highway. John Goode, manager at the FS plant, said he was still waiting on an estimate of damages but confirmed one huge sliding door was almost ripped off its track. Nathan McDaniels, owner, of Rt. 108 Resale said he happened to be in the building when the tornado went through. “Pretty much every one of our buildings was damaged in some way,” McDaniels said. “It actually pushed the front of the middle building in and

By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press Mayor Pro-tem Dewaine Freand ordered Kallal be escorted out of city hall by Carrollton Police Officer Mike Lovel during a police committee meeting Monday. Freand’s decision roused a round of applause from those in attendance. Kallal was placed on paid administrative leave by the council at the May 26 workshop meeting after numerous complaints made against him, particularly in regards to an alleged investigation into City Clerk Ryan Scott by the Illinois State Police. Kallal’s allegation ISP was investigating Scott was false. The police committee, consisting of Chairwoman Susie Keller, Alderman Joe Harness and Carrollton resident Joe Montanez, a former police officer, convened Monday to get feedback from the residents on the department and to discuss the current status of the police chief. During the nearly four hour meeting, between eight and 10 people spoke, including Kallal, who spent approximately 35 minutes in closed session with the committee. After his time in closed session, Kallal returned to the police chief’s

office where where he sat with acting Police Chief Reg Pohlman, who was present as the committee requested residents air their concerns in closed session. After Pohlman left, however, Luke Lamb, former Greene County Board member, made a videotape of Kallal sitting alone in the chief’s office and confronted Kallal about why he was in there when he was on administrative leave. Lamb, who also ran insuccessfully for Greene County Sheriff last November, then called the sheriff’s department and reported Kallal’s presence in the office. Kallal called dispatch to request a Carrollton officer come to city hall regarding Lamb. The meeting reconvened in open session by the time Lovel arrived. Lovel asked asked for direction from the mayor, who ordered Kallal be removed from the premises. No decision was made following the closed session portion of the meeting, but the committee chair said a decision would be made Friday after further discussion. Of the four-hour meeting, a little more than three of those hours were held in closed session. Keller cited the sensitive nature of the issue as reason for

closed session. “Because this meeting is mainly about Chief Kallal, we will need to go into executive session because it is regarding a personnel issue,” Keller said. “I have a sign-up sheet up here and ask you to just put your name on the sheet and then we will go down the sheet and call you in one by one so you can discuss with us your issues or problems or whatever.” Keller said if everyone in the room wanted to sign up to be heard then the committee would be there until each and every one was heard from. Keller said this included Chief Kallal, but when asked if he would sign the sheet, Kallal said he would like to speak to the committee, but didn’t feel he should be forced to sign his name. Alderwoman Sharon Butler, who was also attended the meeting, said Kallal should sign the sheet like everyone else. Keller agreed, noting only those who signed up at the time closed session began would be given a chance to speak to the committee. Kallal signed the sheet, and slammed the pen down after he had finished so hard it could be heard at the back of the room. As the audience members were filing

out of the council chambers to allow the closed session to begin, Kallal began to close the chamber door while still inside. Alderwoman Sharon Butler put her foot in front of the door ,stopping it from closing, and asked him what he was doing. Kallal said he had something important to discuss with the council. Keller questioned what was so important and Kallal said State’s Attorney Caleb Briscoe wanted to speak to them. The information, he said, was crucial, but Keller assured him it could wait. States Attorney Caleb Briscoe arrived 20 minutes later. He was met in the hallway by residents who asked what was so important that he had to discuss with the council. Briscoe said he was told by Kallal the council wanted to speak with him. He did not mention having additional information on the matter. A second police committee meeting will convene Friday at 1 p.m. to make a decision on Kallal’s suspension, which will be recommended to the full council. The next regular council meeting was rescheduled to Monday, June 8 at 7 p.m. and will be open to the public. The public is welcome to attend the meetings.

Another meth lab bust in Roodhouse By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press Greene County officials have busted another active methamphetamine lab in Roodhouse – this one near the elementary school. According to Greene County Sheriff Rob McMillen, on Tuesday, May 26, at approximately 3:21 a.m. the Greene County Multi-Agency Response Team (MRT), assisted the Greene County Sheriff’s Department and the Roodhouse Police Department in the execution of a search warrant at a residence located in the 500 block of West Prairie Street in Roodhouse, which resulted in the arrest of two individuals.

Brian T. Crum, 37, who resides at the residence and Tammy M. Gordon, 40, of Imperial, Mo. were taken into custody without incident. “Based on an active investigation being conducted by the Sheriff’s Department and the Roodhouse Police Department, a search warrant was obtained which allowed law enforcement to search the residence for evidence of methamphetamine being manufactured in the residence,” Sheriff McMillen said. “Upon execution of the search warrant, the search resulted in the discovery of an active methamphetamine lab being located in the residence.” The Illinois State Police (See, meth, A2)

By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press A Roodhouse man has seen a daily ritual pay off in a very big way – and it's going to continue to pay for the next 20 years. Steven Blacketter stops every day at T-Mart in Roodhouse and buys several scratch-off lottery tickets on the way to work. Recently, one of those tickets made up for all the hundreds of losers he has had in the past. Blacketter, 54, bought a $2 “Win For Life” lottery ticket and instantly became richer by $200,000 with another $2,000 per week added to his bank account for the next 20 years. Blacketter’s wife, Diana, said they never dreamed they would ever win so big playing the lottery. “It’s just a routine

with my husband,” Diana Blacketter said. “He stops in every morning, buys two or three of the cheaper scratch off tickets, goes to work and then at lunch time he scratches them off.” She said he spends on average of $10 a day on tickets but manages to break even. “He has pretty much evened out what he spent on them over time,” she said. “He might win $10 or $20 on one and one time he did win $500 but never anything like this.” Blacketter said her husband called her at lunch after scratching the ticket. “He said he looked at it and looked at it again and then he called me and said ‘We won, we won, we won!’” she said. “I asked him what he won and when (See, lotto, A2)

it’s hard to believe, but the little $2 scratch off ticket held by Steven Blacketter of roodhouse has made him a millionaire overnight . Blacketter purchased the ticket at T-mart in roodhouse, which will receive around $22,000 as their portion for selling the winning ticket .

Roodhouse PD hosts fishing derby Saturday at park By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press The Roodhouse Police Department will be holding its Annual Fishing Derby Saturday, June 6, with more prizes than ever before offered to those participating. Roodhouse Police Chief Kyle Robison is continuing the tradition started 19 years ago by former chief’s Jack and Steve Speeks, along with other members of the depart-

ment. “Fishing was a huge part of Jack’s life and it is my opinion that this was one way he thought he could get the department to connect with the kids,” Robison said. “And it works, and it continues to work.” The event is more than just a fun way for kids to win cool prizes, like bicycles. “First, and foremost, the day slows down and the kids get to spend time with their family,” Robison said. “I

also believe the kids leave with a good impression of the police.” The event also provides benefits for the officers. “It’s a good way for us to learn about the different people in our area,” Robison said. “I think it’s important to have strong ties, not only within our community, but with everyone in our county.” Robison said in today’s world the term “community (See, derby, A2)

Every catch is worth celebrating unexpected fish which gives you that unexpected battle. When it culminates with fish-in-hand, there is nothing else to do but give a big, bold, unashamed scream or high-five, or anything that celebrates the victory. For some reason many of us are hesitant to openly celebrate. Men are especially reserve when it comes to this. Sometimes we think it’s unbecoming to an adult. Other times we fear celebrating now because of what may lie ahead. It’s the old thought that we shouldn’t get too excited about something until the outcome is certain. And we surely can’t enjoy the good times because something bad is just around the corner. Now I know I’m speaking (writing) to some of you who fall right into this trap. Some of you catch a five pound bass and shrug it off

(Continued from A1) he told me I thought he was just teasing me but he said, ‘No, really, I did win.’” The next day, Steven Blacketter took the ticket back up to T-Mart and ran it under the scanner. “All the scanner said was ‘Winner – File a Claim,’” she said. “He had to take the ticket to the claims office in Springfield where he had to fill out paper work and learned just how he was going to receive the money.” Blacketter was told he would receive a check for $300,000 in approximately four to six weeks. This money constitutes the $200,000 he won automatically plus the first year of $2,000 per week payments. “Apparently, they don’t send you $2,000 a week but instead, in May, we will get $104,000 deposited into our checking account,” Blacketter said. For a couple that has had tough times –Diana Blacketter was a nurse who became disabled five years ago – the winning ticket meant a lot.

(Continued from A1) policing” comes up quite often but it is far from being a new term. “The term ‘community policing’ has actually been around since 1829,” Robison said. “Sir Robert Peel is considered the father of community policing and many of us who have adopted the philosophy would tell you that it is very important. Basic things such as hosting a free kids fishing derby allows our department to build relations within the community. When you build relationships with people, you build trust. Building strong relationships and the continuation of earning trust with children and adults in our community is something every police department needs in order to be effective.” Thankfully, area businesses feel the same way and step up to the plate to not only provide refreshments, but also the prizes given out to the children. Robison said Farm and Home goes above and beyond when it comes to sponsorship of the fishing derby. “Farm and Home is one of our biggest sponsors and they have a lot of ties to our community,” Robison said. “Farm and Home has several great hunting and fishing products and they have been generous to our event. They provide several prizes to kids in our area who desperately need them. That one prize may be that child’s first fishing pole.” As a former employee of Farm and Home in Jacksonville, before he entered law enforcement, Robison said he knows what Farm and Home stands for and he has taken the principals he

as if it is commonplace for you. Other times you won’t allow yourself to celebrate because you know there is still a “long way to go.” Let me tell you, you are missing out on some great moments. In life there are too many tough times. We deal with some trouble, problems, or heartaches, every day. Some are minimal; others are life-changing. We have no idea what tomorrow holds. We may be awakened by an unexpected phone call informing us about an unexpected tragedy. We may be met at work with an unexpected pink slip. We may be notified by our doctor about an unexpected illness. We just never know. There is one thing I do know however; I know I can celebrate each and every good moment and good day with a bold and unashamed zest. No one can keep me from

“We were fortunate that at the time I became disabled, we already had our house paid for,” she said. “Things were pretty lean there for a while, but we made it through.” The lottery winnings will assure those lean times never happen again. “The important thing we have taken out of this is that if an emergency comes up we will not have any worries,” Blacketter said. “We can take care of whatever it is. We don’t have to worry about trying to get a loan to pay for whatever we might need.” They also plan to use some of the money to help their son, also named Steven, who is married with two small children. “When we told him we planned to give him some of the money he said he worked and he didn’t want or need any of the money,” Blacketter said. “He’s a hard worker and a good boy and I told him he could invest the money just as well as we could.” There is one other splurge that the

obtained from working there and put them to use in his role as Chief of Police. “They are successful because they are a family operated business and its founder, Karl Bowles, believed in good quality customer service,” he said. “Their philosophy of providing quality customer service was something I learned from the company at a very young age and will never forget. What I learned from them has proven to be very useful to me personally while serving as Chief of Police.” This year’s newest sponsor is Cabelas and Robison said in order to get a company like that on board, he had to show how important the event was to the community. “There are a lot of people in our community who spend countless hours hunting and fishing together and that connection alone is why I think Cabelas wanted to help with our event,” Robison said. “I hope this new partnership will last for many years as it is needed to help make the fishing derby better each year.” While corporate sponsors are great, it is the small area businesses who ultimately make the difference. “Mary Ann Farris at the Hillview Café personally helped raise money by hosting a bake sale for the department,” Robison said. “She does this without us even asking her to do it, which shows how great of a person she really is. Mary Ann has been part of our fishing derby for many years and it is because of people like her that helps make this event successful.”

A n d for me, I will choose to milk every present moment of all its praise whether that moment is something as small as landing a bass from the river or something as big as winning the BassMasters Classic.

Blackletter’s plan to do with the money. “I’m not able to go but I told my husband that I want him to take the two grandkids, along with their parents, to Disneyworld on a nice long trip,” she said. “He’s not really much on trips but I told him I wanted him to go because I wanted him to see the looks on their little faces.” According to lottery officials, there were four big winners on this game; two had already been claimed and Blacketter was the third. “I guess that means there is still one out there somewhere,” Blacketter said. “My husband said this was the first ticket on the roll and it was numbered ‘0000’. He also said this was the biggest winner they have had in this area in quite a while.” But for the Blacketters, the winnings do not necessitate a change in their daily lives. “We are thrilled to have won the lottery, but the truth is, we plan to just keep on keepin’ on,” Blacketter said.

Tom Meehan at Meehan’s IGA is also a big contributor. “He is always great to our department and community and is once again providing donuts for the kids free of charge,” Robison said. “Tom Meehan is another person who does not get enough credit for the things he is involved in within our community. Tom and I work together because we both see the importance of strong community relations.” Not to mention the fact that every good cop loves a good doughnut. “A hot Meehan’s donut just can’t be beat,” Robison said. “They beat Krispy Creams hands down.” Robison said there will be at least 14 bicycles donated and given away at the derby. These bicycles are being provided by Sheriff Rob McMillen, States Attorney Caleb Briscoe, Killion’s Communications, Mary Ann’s Café, the Speeks Family, Roodhouse Police Department, Drag-O-Way, and still several others to come before derby day. The event is scheduled to take place at the Roodhouse Rez with check in starting at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, June 6. There will be two angler categories – one for children 10 and under, who must be accompanied by an adult, and another for ages 11-16. Donuts will be provided for breakfast and lunch and refreshments will also be provided. Prizes will be awarded at the end of the derby. The derby is open to children throughout the county – not just Roodhouse. No fishing license is required.

OPINION

Carrollton, Illinois

Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller I’ve taken some time out of the last few days to fish the river. This is my sport of choice during this time of year. The weather has been perfect and the fish have been cooperating as well. One morning I felt like Mike Iaconelli who is one of the pros from the Bass Elite Series. Mike is known for his loud screams when he catches a big fish or a fish that gets him in contention to win. He really lets his emotions be seen and heard. I felt the same way the other day as I was landing several good fish. The difference in Mike and me is that he is fishing from a fifty thousand dollar bass boat, and I am in my twelve foot, river jon boat. But the thrill is the same. It doesn’t come from what’s above the water but from what’s below it. It’s that unexpected bite that becomes that

USDA reminds farmers to certify conservation compliance by June 1 deadline The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reminds farmers to file a Highly Erodible Land Conservation and Wetland Conservation Certification form (AD-1026) with their local USDA Service Center by June 1, 2015. The 2014 Farm Bill requires producers to have the form on file in order to remain eligible, or to become eligible for crop insurance premium support. Many farmers already have a certification form on file since it's required for participation in most USDA programs including marketing assistance loans, farm storage facility loans and disaster assistance. However, farmers who only participate in the federal crop insurance program must now file a certification form to receive crop insurance premium support. These producers might include specialty crop farmers who may not participate in other USDA programs. "USDA is making every effort possible to get the word out about this new Farm Bill provision," said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. "We've deployed a variety of informational documents and online resources including fact sheets, frequently asked questions and brochures to help farmers understand what they need to do. We've also conducted informational meetings and training sessions for nearly 6,000 stakeholders across the country. We want to make sure that those who are required to act do so by the June 1 deadline. We want all eligible producers to be able to maintain their ability to protect their operations with affordable crop insurance." USDA has conducted extensive outreach over the past year, especially to producers who only participate in the federal crop insurance program and may be subject to conservation compliance for the first time.

Along with the outreach done by crop insurance agents and companies, USDA efforts have included letters, postcards, phone calls, producer meetings and interaction with stakeholder groups to help them reach their members. While there are procedures in place to correct good faith errors and omissions on certification forms, the deadline cannot be waived or extended and a form must be filed by June 1. The Highly Erodible Land Conservation and Wetland Conservation Certification form AD-1026 is available at local USDA Service Centers or online at www.fsa.usda. gov/AD1026form.When a farmer completes this form, USDA's Farm Service Agency and Natural Resources Conservation Service staff will identify any additional actions that may be required for compliance with highly erodible land and wetland provisions. USDA's Risk Management Agency, through the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, manages the federal crop insurance program. Today's announcement was made possible by the 2014 Farm Bill, which builds on historic economic gains in rural America over the past six years, while achieving meaningful reform and billions of dollars in savings for the taxpayer. Since enactment, USDA has implemented many provisions of this critical legislation, providing disaster relief to farmers and ranchers; strengthening risk management tools; expanding access to rural credit; funding critical research; establishing innovative public-private conservation partnerships; developing new markets for rural-made products; and investing in infrastructure, housing and community facilities to help improve quality of life in rural America.

Work begins on Ritter-Bell Memorial Park

Roodhouse city crews were on hand Tuesday morning to help pour the smooth out the concrete which will become the new basketball courts at the Ritter-Bell Memorial Park. Last fall, city crews took up all the old, cracked concrete and were just wanting for warm dry weather to pour the new pads. Work will continue until Phase 1 of the project is completed. The park is in honor of long-time teacher and coach George Ritter and former coach David Bell.

Sunday school report by Sis. Mary. Children’s Penny March as they went downstairs for church with Sis. Cindy as leader. Congregation sang hymns. Message by Bro. Baxter Acts 3. As Peter and John went to the temple to pray, a certain lame man lay at the beautiful gate of the temple begging for alms. The man was lame from the time of birth. Peter told him, I have no money, but

in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. His legs were strengthened and he went into the temple walking and leaping and praising God. What a great miracle. All the people knew this was the man who sat asking for alms. Peter said, “why do you look at us, it was God’s power that made this man to walk. You allowed a murderer to be pardoned, but hanged Jesus. Repent of your sins and be saved.” Sunday evening: Prayer, sang hymns and continued in Acts 3: ye are the children of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, said to Abraham in thy

The Age of the Selfie The term "selfie," used to describe a picture one has taken of oneself, usually with one's cell phone camera, is loaded with insinuations of narcissistic self-centeredness, and perhaps with good reason. The vast majority of the pictures taken throughout the entire history of the world have reportedly been taken in just the last few years, with the advent of the digital camera and its ubiquitous cousin the cell phone camera. There are now small video cameras that mount just about anywhere and enable their users to get footage of just about anything, from skiing down an alpine slope to deep-sea diving, which has added to our ability to document our lives. But what is the point of all of this documentation? Are our friends and families that interested in looking at all of these pictures and videos of us or are they for our own viewing pleasure? Or do they really just serve to certify that we were actually at the concert or visited the Eiffel tower? It's nice that we can so easily share pictures and videos, but we run the risk of missing the experience in question if we are only interested in getting the great picture or video, and perhaps more perilous still is the prospect that a self-absorbed generation and culture will become even more so. We would all do well to remember that many experiences are best experienced by just being there and don't need to be photographed or recorded. –Christopher Simon

multiple leadership roles,” said Davidson of the Work Program. As a freshman Davidson has yet to decide what she wants to do in the future. “Although I don’t know exactly what I want to do after Blackburn, I know my purpose in life is to help people,” said Davidson.

Tornado tears Tornado through Carrollton

Submitted photo

High winds from a tornado late Friday night ripped a portion of the metal roof off of Joe Schnelt’s barn located just off Woody Road near Carrollton.

(Continued from A1) Wright’s Park, on the north end of town, also received damage with several large trees affected by the high winds. Before it got to Carrollton, the tornado ripped a portion of the roof off Joe Schnelt’s barn located on his farm off Woody Road. The entire town was in darkness until around 4:30 a.m. when Ameren finally restored power. The following morning, the indomitable spirit of the small town kicked in and neighbors were out in force helping remove the tree limbs blocking streets and driveways. Carrollton Fire Department was called out to a gas leak near the FS plant soon after the tornado touched down, and the rest of the city crews and police department were called to the scene of numerous downed power lines. Carrollton Mayor Pro-Tem Dwayne Freand complimented the city employees on a job well done. “It is with gratitude that I would like to recognize the city’s emergency, mainte-

nance and water department personnel along with the Carrollton Fire Department, Ameren CIPS, IDOT and any volunteers who assisted our residents in securing their health and safety,” he said in a press release. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of the storm. Fox 2 News Meteorologist Chris Higgins said there was no warning a tornado was forming. “Nothing on radar reflectivity warranted issuing any type of warning,” Higgins said. “There was a fairly nondescript cluster of thunderstorms with very heavy rain and some lightening, but that was it.” The winds detected by the radar were not strong either. “There was one area of detectable rotation but it was only showing rotational winds of about 20 mph,” Higgins said. “Fifty miles per hour is the usual low end cut-off for considering a tornado. This is nowhere close to the low end for a tornado warning so no warning was issued.”

Those in the path of the tornado would beg to differ, however. Greene County Sheriff Rob McMillen said his department started receiving numerous calls almost immediately. “We began getting calls from residents reporting downed trees, downed power lines, damaged residences, damaged out buildings and the entire city of Carrollton being without electricity,” McMillen said. “Our department, along with the Carrollton Police and Fire departments, began answering these calls and surveying the areas where the calls were coming from to see if there were any injuries or anyone trapped. The damage appears to have been isolated to the southwest and northwest sides of Carrollton and the immediate surrounding areas.” McMillen said his department received no warning of the impending twister. “At the time the storm came through Carrollton, Carrollton was not placed under any tornado or severe weather warnings by the

National Weather Service and had not received any reports that a tornado or severe weather was heading towards Carrollton,” McMillen said. “This was the reason the Sheriff’s Department did not sound the emergency warning sirens.” McMillen said he spoke with the NHS on Saturday to inquire what kind of weather system they recorded coming through Carrollton on Friday night at approximately 11:45 p.m. “The official advised me that they did not detect any tornadoes or severe weather systems on their radars during that period of time,” McMillen said. “I advised them of the weather related damages that Carrollton sustained during the storm and the NWS officials advised me he would not the reported damages in a report and sent it to another NWS official to review.” The NWS investigated the weather related damages caused by Friday’s storm and determined that a tornado, indeed, had caused the damages.

Did you know?

Aerie’s Terrace provides popular wedding services By BOB CROSSEN Greene Prairie Press June may be a prime month for many brides, but Aerie’s Terrace in Grafton has found weddings don’t slow down throughout the year. Since opening last fall, Aerie’s Terrace in Grafton has nearly filled out the remainder of 2015 in weddings, Kelly Stiller, Aerie’s event coordinator, said. “Things are going fantastically. We are really hopping. Business is picking up. We are just about booked for 2015 and working on our 2016 season right now,” Stiller said. Just this year there are 45 more weddings booked for the Grafton reception hall,

and it is the venue’s view of the confluence of the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers that draws brides to the banquet hall atop the bluffs in Grafton. “Our biggest selling point is our view, of course. Anybody who’s familiar with Aerie’s, who’s been up here, knows the great view of the confluence of the Mississippi and Illinois Rivers,” Stiller said. But the services for brides, she said, extend beyond the average wedding reception hall’s offerings. The hall houses 24 hotel rooms for the wedding party to stay in, and if more are needed, the remaining Aerie’s rooms are also available. Having that many overnight options available is advantageous given the recep-

tion hall can house 300 people indoors and another 300 on its balcony overlooking the river and Grafton’s bluffs. Catering services are not offered at the reception hall, she said, noting brides prefer to choose their own caterer who may use the hall’s facilities to make the meals for guests in Grafton. “That’s the thing that brides really like. They can choose the food that they want from the place that they like through outside vendors,” Stiller said. Although popular since opening its doors, Stiller said Aerie’s Terrace accepts additional wedding parties and receptions. To schedule an event, contact 618-786-8439 or visit aeriesview.com

Modern trends in wedding videography Few people want to sit through their entire wedding day frameby-frame. Montages of key elements of the day are much more popular than a chronological unfolding of the ceremony and reception. Some videographers like to show snippets of what's to come at the start of the wedding video, then go into more extensive segments later on. n Film chapters: Dividing segments of the video into different chapters allows viewers to fast forward to the parts they want to see and pass those they can skip. This saves the hassle of having to watch the video in its entirety.

n Cinematic styling: Instead of a stationary camera on a tripod, this method of filming incorporates different angles and close-up shots to give the video a modern feel. It's shot more like a movie than a documentary, allowing viewers to feel as though they're really experiencing the event. n Same-day editing: Want to revisit the ceremony at your wedding reception? Some videographers will edit portions of the ceremony and preparations for the big day in the time between the ceremony and reception. This gives all guests, including those who may not have been able to

make the ceremony, the chance to view the nuptials. n Unobtrusive technology: This trend relates to the equipment used to capture wedding memories rather than the actual finished product. No one wants their view of the ceremony or reception to be marred by a big, bulky camera. Smaller video cameras enable videographers to seamlessly blend in and perhaps capture shots that larger cameras could not. Preserving wedding memories takes on new meaning when couples explore the growing trends in wedding videos.

According to the 2014 Real Weddings Survey from popular wedding website TheKnot.com, June was the most popular month to get married in 2014, when 15 percent of the nearly 16,000 brides and grooms surveyed tied the knot in what many people consider the most pleasant weather month of the year. Fourteen percent chose to tie the knot in October, another month with a reputation for agreeable weather. Those who chose to tie the knot in the New York/Tri-state area paid the most to make

their unions official, as five of the six most expensive areas to get married in the United States in 2014 were within that region. The most expensive locale to say "I do" was Manhattan, where couples spent an average of $76,238 on their weddings. Long Island was next up but still cost considerably less, with couples spending an average of $55,237. Chicago was the only locale outside of the New York/ Tri-state area to crack the top five, coming in fifth by costing couples an average of just under $51,000.

A couple's wedding day is often a whirlwind for the brideand groom-to-be. Happy couples hope to remember every little detail, but that can be difficult when so much is going on. That is why many brides and grooms hire videographers to preserve the memories of their weddings. Couples who fail to capture their ceremony and reception on film may feel like they missed out once their big day has come and gone. As a result, a professional videographer can be a wise investment. The following are some wedding video trends popular among today's couples. · Brief clips and highlights:

Greenfield graduates Fessler receives NHS scholarship

Sherry Fraley/Greene Prairie Press

Abby McEvers is the first, of Greenfield’s four valedictorians, to speak at commencement last Friday, May 29th. Co-valedictorians Austin Plogger and Bailey Bergschneider smile at the humor delivered by McEvers during her speech

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press A recent Carrollton High School graduate has managed to do something no other graduate in the history of the high school has been able to do – procure a scholarship from the National Honor Society. Ashley Fessler, a member of the National Honor Society has been named one of 200 state finalists in the National Honor Society Scholarship from the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP). These 200 NHS state finalists were first chosen from among nearly 6,800 applicants and each finalist receives a $1,000 college scholarship. Fessler has become the first CHS student to receive this prestigious honor since the inception of the scholarship program in 1946. “I received a letter addressed to me from the nASSA and immediately ripped it open and realized I was one of the few selected for this prestigious honor,” Fessler said. “I immediately texted my parents

and could not wait to get back to school to tell Ms. Robins. While talking to Ms. Robins, she informed me that I was the only person from CHS she knew of to receive this award. I was in shock and I was amazed that I was the receipient of such an amazing scholarship. I felt like all my hard work and my will to be the best that I can be really paid off.” Robins said she wasn’t surprised Fessler was selected for the scholarship. “Ashley is the type of student that schools dream to have as a student,” Robins said. “She is intelligent, diligent and compassionate. In addition to her outstanding performance at school, Ashley has shown a level of dedication to improving her community which is exemplary. This commitment to bettering the world around her is why Ashley is admired by her teachers, her peers and her community.” Two senior members of the NHS from the participating chapters were nominated to compete in this year’s program. “Based on our school size, Ms. Robins was able to select

two NHS members to apply for the scholarship,” Fessler said. “Once selected, the application process consisted of two recommendations – one from Ms. Robins and one from our principal, Ms. Leslee Frazier. I also had to write an essay aobut how mu service has played a role in my character and leadership.” Finalists were selected on the basis of their leadership skills, their participation in service organizations, clubs and other student groups at school and in the community, along with their academic record. Fessler was one of five valedictorians for the graduating class of 2015. As a finalist, Fessler is recognized as one of the top 200 NHS members in the nation this year. “We are proud to recognize Ms. Fessler for her outstanding achievements and contributions to her school,” NASSP Student Programs Director Anne Postlewaite said. “Students nominated for the NHS Scholarship not only demonstrate academic excellence, but also extraordinary performance in service, leadership, and character traits that are

ASHLEY FESSLER

more important today than ever before. In recognizing leadership and involvement in student activities, as well as strong academic performance, the NHS Scholarship acknowledges the importance of a well-rounded education.” Fessler was very active during her four hears at Carrollton High School. During her tenure, she has been president of the NHS, FBLA and Civics Club. She was also a member of the varsity golf team and involved in several service projects. Fessler plans to attend the University of Missouri in the fall to study accounting.

Three-year-old Abby Sue Scoggins looks a little less than convinced at what her father, Dustin, is saying as the two share conversation during the Donuts with Dad event at the Carrollton Grade School. It is a time when fathers, grandfathers, brothers, uncles or any male who has influence in a child’s life is invited to come and have a donut and talk with the child. Pre-school children are also included in the events and in addition to breakfast, they also get to pick out an age-appropriate book which the father is encouraged to read with the child.

OBITUARIES

Wednesday, June 3, 2015

Deward 'Dewey' Overbey On April 17, 2015 the world lost a good man … Deward Lee Overbey (Dewey), but the heavens gained one AWESOME soul! Dewey was born March 18, 1931 in St. Louis, Missouri. He was preceded in death by his parents Laverne and Christine Tudor Overbey and grandsons Derek Overbey and Paul Carbaugh. Dewey is survived by Gloria Gilleland Overbey, his loving wife of nearly 65 years; daughter Mary Dorsey and husband Randy; daughter,Kaye Clinard; son, Danny Overbey; seven grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren: Laura Larson, husband Paul – children Chandler, Linsey, Aimee; Craig Haley, wife Melanie – children Brookly, Bella, Will; Bryan Jenkins – children Delaney, Rylee, and mother Misty; Jason Jenkins, wife Andrea – child Carleigh; Michael Clinard; Amy Stringfield, husband Lee – child Camryn; and David Overbey; two brothers Gordon Overbey and wife Janelle, Lewis Overbey and wife Rose; his beloved dog Brutus; and numerous other extended family and special friends. Dewey graduated from Greenfield Illinois High School in 1948, began dating Gloria (from Roodhouse) in January 1950, and they married in May 1950. After military service with the U. S. Marine Corps, they moved to Pasadena TX in late 1951 (where the kids were raised) and worked for Ethyl Corporation for 25 years. Dewey enjoyed traveling with his family – often camping. In later years, he and Gloria really enjoyed cruising. In 1976, Dewey and Gloria left Texas to move back to their home state of Illinois, settling in Rockbridge. Dewey spent the majority of his remaining work years driving a school bus for the Greenfield school district. As bus driver, he often saw children’s report cards before their parents and was even gifted various hand-made school projects. Dewey and Gloria were well loved by the kids and adopted as honorary grandparents by many of them. Dewey loved all sports … playing high school basketball, adult fast pitch softball, horseshoes, golf … coaching youth baseball while his son danny played … listening to Cardinal baseball on the radio … watching Greenfield school sports. He often had the opportunity and privilege to drive school teams to out of town games. He is well remembered as a loyal fan, sitting in his customary spot on the sidelines or in the

bleachers, watching and cheering his home town Tiger team! His favorite outdoor sport was fishing – in Macoupin Creek, farmland ponds, lakes, or any available spot while in Texas or during his travels. Dewey enjoyed gardening, where he and Gloria were well known for their beautiful and bountiful garden – offering their surplus to community friends, Greenfield school district, and Tiger Backer feeds. He enjoyed back yard BBQ grilling, card games, walking for exercise and with their dog, Brutus (entertaining and loyal throughout). In January 2012, Dewey and Gloria moved to Coldspring TX to be closer to the kids. Their new community had a fishing pier, where he spent every day possible … in any degree of weather, faithfully casting his line – sometimes not even getting a bite, but outdoors doing what he loved! Dewey was a true gentleman and will be remembered for his crystal-blue eyes, white hair, warm smile, firm handshake, love of life and family, but most of all for his eternal love and devotion to his wife Gloria. Their love was and will continue to be an inspiration to his children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and all that met them. The family would like to thank Rockbridge United Methodist Church members and everyone in the Rockbridge/Greenfield area who supported them during their life there – especially the continued phone calls, cards/letters, love and prayers after their move to Texas. Family and friends are invited to attend memorial services on Saturday, June 13, 2015, at Rockbridge Illinois United Methodist Church – Visitation, 10 a.m …Celebration of Dewey’s Life, 11 a.m. Dewey’s family request that everyone dress casual (shorts/capris, jeans/ overalls, Tiger apparel suggested), as we want to celebrate Dewey’s life casually and comfortably – just as he lived his life. In lieu of flowers, we would be honored if donations in Dewey’s name are made to Rockbridge United Methodist Church, Wounded Warriors or Greenfield Tiger Backers.

Robert Lahr Robert Glenn Lahr, 73, of Medora died at 12:15 a.m. Tuesday, May 26, 2015 at his residence surrounded by his loving family after a four-year battle with heart disease and and two-and-a-half year fight with cancer. He was born in Carlinville June 14, 1941, one of five children born to the late Glenn Washington and Edith (Pearce) Lahr.

Greene Prairie Press The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Army Corps of Engineers have finalized their new rule defining “waters of the United States,” according to a May 27 EPA press release. The new “WOTUS” rule, which will go into effect 60 days after publication in the Federal Register, seeks to clarify which waters are protected under federal jurisdiction, according to the EPA and Corps. However, the Illinois Farm Bureau and county farm bureau, whose members have opposed the rule since it was proposed in April 2014, have argued the rule does not add clarity and would instead expand federal jurisdiction unnecessarily and possibly interfere with normal farming operations. This remains the case with the finalized version of the rule, according to Blake Roderick, executive director of the Pike and Scott county farm bureaus. “A cursory review indicates that very little has changed. It is as if EPA did not take into account substantive comments from farmers, businesses, local governments and others opposing the proposed rule,” Roderick said in a May 27 email statement. “It still reads like the same WOTUS rule that does not offer clarity, opens the door to agency enforcement actions, citizen suits against farmers/landowners and greatly expands Federal authority from navigable waters to land features.” Illinois Farm Bureau president Richard Guebert Jr. echoed these concerns. “The Illinois Farm Bureau is currently reviewing the EPA’s final ruling in detail,” Guebert said in a May 27 written statement. “(We) believe this new regulation will cause greater confusion and new legal liabilities for farmers and land owners, while providing both agencies with almost unlimited authority to regulate at their discretion.” The new rule does not reflect the intent of Congress in passing the Clean Water Act, according to Guebert, and the U.S. House of Representatives has passed legislation to that effect. H.R. 1732, dubbed the Regulatory Integrity Protection Act of 2015, passed the House May 12 by a vote of 261-155, with

16 members not voting, and has since been received in the Senate. If enacted, H.R. 1732 will force the EPA and Corps to withdraw the rule and develop a new one in consultation with the states and with public and private stakeholders. A bill introduced April 30 in the Senate, S. 1140, would force the agencies to revise the new rule under guidelines outlining the limits of federal jurisdiction and more explicitly recognizing the role of states in water quality protection. Neither Sen. Richard Durbin nor Sen. Mark Kirk are listed as cosponsors of S. 1140. U.S. Rep. Rodney Davis, whose Illinois 13th Congressional District includes the counties of Calhoun, Greene, and Jersey, cosponsored H.R. 1732 and has said he would continue pushing the agencies to withdraw the new rule. “This is yet another example of the EPA ignoring the concerns of our farmers and failing to understand the real-life impact of their rules and regulations,” Davis said. “The finalization of this rule further highlights the need, and urgency, for creating an agriculture subcommittee on the EPA Science Advisory Board to give agriculture a stronger voice in the regulatory process.” Such a subcommittee is now being established, thanks to an amendment to the 2014 Farm Bill Davis authored, he added. In contrast to the Farm Bureau and Chamber of Commerce, the Center for Rural Affairs has come out in support of the finalized rule. Headquartered in Lyons, Neb., the organization describes itself as “a private, non-profit organization working to strengthen small businesses, family farms and ranches, and rural communities through action oriented programs addressing social, economic, and environmental issues.” “The revised rule is grounded in both law and science. Nearly one in three Americans get drinking water from streams that lacked clear protection before the Clean Water Rule,” John Crabtree, Center for Rural Affairs media director, said in a May 27 written statement. “Clean water is an economic driver for manufacturing, farming, ranching, tourism, recreation, and energy production.”

Cancer Survivor’s wanted for Greene County Relay for Life Survivor Supper On Saturday, June 13, the American Cancer Society will hold their 16th Annual Greene County Relay For Life event at the Carrollton High School Athletic Field. This year’s Survivor Supper will be held Wednesday, June 10 at 6 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Carrollton. The meal is free for the Survivor, however a $5 donation is asked for guests attending with a Survivor. Survivors will receive their Survivor t-shirt at the supper so it may be worn to the Relay. Donations of canned goods to hold down the Luminaria bags during the Relay will be accepted at the Survivor Supper and will later be given to Greene County food pantries. Anyone who has had cancer is welcome to attend the Survivor Supper. For reservations and to order a Survivor t-shirt, call Nancy Wollenweber at 217-942-6254 as soon as possible. Survivor medallions and pins will be handed out prior to the Survivor Lap on Saturday. Survivors who attended last year should wear their

purple ribbon and medallion. Tim Nelson is the Honorary Chairperson this year. He will speak and share his story at the Survivor Supper and at the Relay. The Relay will start at noon on Saturday with a Survivor’s Lap around 1 p.m. for those who cannot attend the Relay that evening. The opening ceremony on Saturday will be about 6 p.m. and the first lap will be dedicated to the Cancer Survivors. During the lap each Survivor’s name and length of survival will be read. Then all the Cancer Survivors will walk the first lap around the track as a group. Wheelchairs will be provided for those unable to walk. Immediately following the Survivor’s Lap there will be a special lap for caregivers (the person or persons who cared for the survivor during their cancer treatment). Special seating will be arranged for all the Survivors in front of the north grandstand. If you have question about the Relay for the Survivor’s Supper, please call the number above.

Davidsmeyer Announces Powell Memorial Highway State Representative CD Davidsmeyer (R-Jacksonville) is proud to announce U.S. Route 67 through Greene County will be memorialized for the seven Powell Brothers of Hillview. “It is an honor to be able to rename a portion of U.S. Route 67 after the Powell Brothers who defended our country in World War II,” said Davidmseyer. Senate Joint Resolution 2 will rename and designate U.S. Route 67 as the “Powell Brothers Memorial Highway.” “Adrian, Arthur, Earl, Everett, Fred, George and Max are brothers who left home to fight in Europe, Russia and

Japan. We honor each one of these brothers for the glory they brought their family, Hillview and the 100th Legislative District by renaming a portion of 67 in Greene County as a memorial,” said Davidsmeyer. Senate Joint Resolution II originated in the IL Senate. Senator McCann is the Senate sponsor and Representative Davidsmeyer is the House sponsor. The joint resolution orders the IL Department of Transportation to erect signs entering Greene County noting the highway’s name change.

Breach of Hospital Privacy The Thomas H. Boyd Memorial Hospital (d/b/a Boyd Healthcare Services) (the “Hospital”) recently learned of a privacy incident that involved the personal information of some of its current and former patients. On or about March 24, 2015, the Hospital discovered that a property owned by Greene County Board and located at 505 S. Main Street, While Hall, Illinois, which the Hospital had leased for medical record and equipment storage (the “Storage Facility”), had been sold to a third party on March 19, 2015. At the time of the closing and exchange of possession of the Storage Facility of which the Hospital had not been notified, medical records of approximately 7500 current and/or former patients of the Hospital were located in the building. The records contained personal information of the patients, including but not limited to patient names, dates of birth, social security numbers, addresses, account numbers, diagnoses, disability codes and treatment information. Since learning of the incident, the Hospital has worked tirelessly to determine the identity of each and every patient record present in the Storage

Facility, which information was contained in each record, and who had access to the records before the incident was reported to the Hospital. Further, the Hospital has notified the local law enforcement authorities, who are assisting in the assessment and recovery. The Hospital continues to coordinate with law enforcement and others to ensure all records at issue have been identified and recovered, and to interview each individual who had access to the records to ensure no information was copied or further disseminated. Individuals whose records were present in the Storage Facility are being notified directly, with direction on what steps they can take to ensure their information is protected. For any individuals who feel they may have been affected by the breach, the Hospital strongly encourages you to take the following preventative measures now to help prevent and detect any misuse of your information: Closely monitor your financial accounts and if you see any unauthorized activity, promptly contact your financial institution. Consider requesting a free credit report from each of the three major credit bureaus. To

order your free credit report, please contact the companies at: Equifax 800-525-6285; Experian 888-397-3742 or TransUnion 800-680-7289 Even if you do not find any suspicious activity on your initial credit reports, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) recommends that you check your credit reports periodically. A victim’s personal information is sometimes held for use or shared among a group at different times. Checking your credit reports periodically can help you spot problems and address them quickly. Remain alert for “phishing” e-mails or other communications that appear to come from the Hospital. The Hospital will never request your personal information via e-mail. If you receive a suspicious e-mail or other communication regarding your personal information, please contact the Hospital immediately. Closely monitor any “Explanation of Benefits” or “EOB” sent by your insurance company, Medicare, or other entity that pays your medical bills. These entities often send out notices in the mail that describe recent medical events. Pay attention to these and contact

your health care provider if they look suspicious. Consider requesting an accounting of disclosures from each health care provider. This is a benefit of HIPAA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act). You can request a list of all the times your medical information has been shared along with the reason for sharing. The Hospital takes this breach seriously and is working with its attorneys, accountants and others to ensure the incident is not repeated. To further protect our patients, the Hospital has conducted an extensive internal investigation and audit and is providing additional privacy and security training for its employees. The Hospital is in the process of revising its policies and procedures regarding storage of medical records and related issues to prevent any further incidents. For more information or to ask questions, individuals may contact Deborah Campbell at 217-942-6946. We apologize for any distress this situation has caused. The Hospital is ready to assist individuals affected by the breach in any way.
