Parts of Sacred Heart church to be repurposed before Sheetz takes ownership

ROSEVILLE — A letter from the current owners of the former Catholic Community of Sacred Heart church in Roseville states that while the building is to be demolished, parts of it will be repurposed.

In a letter to the city of Roseville dated July 3, the Rev. Gregory Piatt and Deacon Tom Houle ask for an exemption of demolition costs and fees in order to reclaim materials from the building to be repurposed. Piatt and Houle are the president and business manager, respectively, of St. Pio of Pietrelcina Parish.

“The work consists of reusing all the roof tiles, bell tower peak and the bell, along with other materials and religious artifacts including the entry doors with stained glass,” the letter states.

The letter states parts of the building will be repurposed at St. Pio of Pietrelcina and at Sacred Heart Cemetery. Renderings will be presented showing proposed projects in which the repurposed materials will be used, it states.

ECS Board of Education passes resolution regarding school aid budget

State lawmakers miss July 1 deadline

EASTPOINTE — As school districts statewide prepare for the 2025-2026 school year, they’ve been thrown into financial uncertainty because the state Legislature has not passed the state budget, which includes the school aid budget.

The deadline to pass the budget was July 1, but the House and Senate have yet to reach an agreement on the 2025-2026 fiscal year. This has been a roadblock for school of-

ficials who had to pass their budgets by June 30 and did so without a concrete budget from the state.

At the July 28 Eastpointe Community Schools Board of Education meeting, the school board voted 7-0 on a resolution urging state lawmakers to take immediate action and “pass a School Aid Budget that equitably supports the needs of all Michigan students.”

The document is titled “Resolution on Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Michigan School Aid Fund Budget Delays” and states, “The Fiscal Year 2025-2026 School Aid Fund Budget continues to be delayed by political battles that are unrelated to school funding or the needs of our students.”

A CENTURY OF FAITH

St. Veronica will celebrate 100-year anniversary in 2026

EASTPOINTE — Next year will mark the 100-year anniversary of St. Veronica Catholic Church, and parishioners have already begun planning for the milestone celebration.

They also are looking for past parishioners and former students who moved out of the area to participate in the yearlong festivities.

A committee formed and held its most recent meeting July 27 after 11 a.m. Mass to confirm details and brainstorm new ideas. People are volunteering in different capacities to plan a number of events throughout the year, including a dinner, a pancake breakfast and a commemorative cookbook.

Prosecutor charges juvenile as adult in connection with Eastpointe shooting

Second juvenile also might be charged as adult

EASTPOINTE — The Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office decided to charge a juvenile as an adult for his alleged

involvement in an Eastpointe shooting July 22.

There is a second juvenile suspect who might be charged as an adult, but at press time Aug. 1, no decision had been made, according to Esther Wolfe, spokesperson for the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office.

Previously, a third suspect — an adult — had already been charged.

The incident occurred at around 4:20

p.m. July 22, when Eastpointe police officers were called to the 24000 block of Kelly Road to investigate a reported shooting. People had gathered at the residence to make a music video, according to the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office.

The officers found a man who had been shot in the abdomen. They immediately began lifesaving measures until paramedics from the Eastpointe Fire Department and

MedStar arrived and took the man to a hospital.

Eastpointe Police Lt. Alex Holish said that while first responders were tending to the man at the scene, a call came into dispatch from a witness who reported seeing three suspects flee the area on foot.

Officers from the Eastpointe Police Department formed a perimeter around the

However, before any permits had been issued, a contractor was found to be working on removing pieces of the building’s roof. At City Council’s July 22 meeting, City Manager Ryan Monroe stated that the city had reached out and notified the contractor that they had been operating without a permit.

“Regarding the work that’s already been done, we did contact the contractor on Friday and again today to advise them that they were working without a permit,” Monroe said at the July 22 meeting. “They did stop on Friday and I believe they stopped today, but again, the contractor wants to get the work done.”

Councilman Bill Shoemaker said he’s glad to be seeing parts of the church repurposed, but he had also heard concerns about the permits.

“I just want to let people know that, first of all, I go to St. Pio, so I’m glad they’re trying to do something to repurpose it,” he said. “But at the same time, I represent the city of Roseville, and I did get three additional calls and concerns about the permits not being pulled ahead of time.”

Shoemaker also said he’d heard concerns about asbestos on the roof.

Monroe said the city was working to obtain the abatement report from the new owners of the building.

“They did do a quite extensive investigation into that property,” he said. “We don’t believe there’s anything in the bell tower or on the roof, but we are looking into that.”

The request to waive the demolition fees was approved by City Council with a unanimous vote. In a July 29 email, Monroe said the proper permits had been obtained.

Once the parts of the building have been removed, the letter states, the building will be boarded up “for the safety of the community until such time Sheetz takes possession,” the letter states.

The sale of the church has been a point of contention in the community for several years. Past plans have included repurposing the structure for a mixed-use storage and retail facility. Most recently, however, Pennsylvania-based Sheetz is in the process of purchasing the property as a location to build a multimillion-dollar development of a fuel center, convenience store and restaurant.

Edward Stross, who owns Gonzo!! Art Studio across the street, has made numerous attempts to save the church, even going so far as to file a claim of appeal after the Roseville Planning Commission approved the future Sheetz plans.

Roseville City Attorney Tim Tomlinson

The entry doors containing stained glass at the former Catholic Community of Sacred Heart Church are being saved and repurposed. Demolition has begun on the building in Roseville, despite repeated attempts to save it.

previously stated that a claim of appeal is filed by a person who disagrees with a decision made by a tribunal or commission. It was ultimately dismissed in the Macomb County Circuit Court.

However, demolition of the building began while Stross was waiting for a decision from the Michigan Court of Appeals.

“I’m still fighting this in the courts so it won’t be a Sheetz,” Stross said. “But put it this way: I’m furious, heartbroken, disappointed.”

Stross said he doesn’t find any solace in parts of the church being repurposed elsewhere.

In the July 3 letter sent to the city, Piatt and Houle stated the sale of the church was near closing.

“St. Pio of Pietrelcina is excited that the sale of the Sacred Heart Church building located at 18430 Utica Road in Roseville is coming to a near closing,” the letter states.

Stross said he won’t stop fighting to keep Sheetz from coming into the area, calling it a disruption to the community.

Comedy

place to laugh, hear music, poetry or all three at once.

One goal she had was to open a comedy club in Eastpointe, where she makes her home. Her aspiration has come to fruition.

Kesha’s Comedy House and Grille, located at 20958 Gratiot Ave., is no laughing matter. On July 31, the Eastside Community Chamber coordinated a grand opening and ribbon cutting to officially welcome the new business to the city. Gallman purchased the building in August 2022, and tables and chairs, a bar and couches decorate the new establishment.

“We’ve been working on the project since then,” Gallman said. “The plan is to bring in not only local acts, but national acts. We will be offering comedy classes, improv and I would like to partner with area high schools to offer workshops. I live in Eastpointe. This is my home.”

Kesha’s Comedy House and Grill also will serve food and bring in musicians and poets. Gallman, who said she was “always the class clown,” began performing stand-up comedy 12 years ago at the encouragement of others. She is also a United Auto Workers member and graduated from Wayne State University in 2010.

“I interned at Walt Disney World (Resort), and after we would flood the Waffle House,” she said, adding that someone told her, “You need to do stand-up comedy.”

The former Club Bart in Ferndale, the Funny Bone in Detroit, Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle in Royal Oak and the Punchline Comedy Lounge in Southfield are among the places where Gallman has tickled the funny bones of her audience.

On stage, the comedian primarily ribs her family members while sharing stories of her upbringing. She has mastered the art of improv, opened up for many comedians including D.C. Young Fly, and has appeared in a few movies on the Tubi streaming channel.

Comedian Sheryl Underwood is one of her influences.

“She does her own thing. She’s a really nice person in real life. She’s very funny and she’s very natural. She’s very encouraging and gave me good advice,” Gallman said. “As far as male comedians, I’ll go old school

with Redd Foxx and Bernie Mac. They remind you of the uncle at the family reunion. They’re just naturally funny.”

She’s also a fan of Wanda Sykes.

“She is very diverse,” Gallman said. “She can do any crowd. She can relate to anybody.”

Many friends, family and local comics got a sneak peek of the new club during the grand opening. There were hugs and plenty of good wishes for Gallman, who signed Kesha’s Comedy House and Grille T-shirts for the crowd. Comics Shannon Strong and BSM Diggz look forward to performing and hanging out at Kesha’s Comedy House and Grille.

“It should do extremely well,” said BSM Diggz, who is also a musician and entertainer. “She deserves it.”

“This is made for comedy. We needed somewhere to go. When you come here, you’re going to get a comedy experience,” Strong said. “It’s essential to laugh. Laughter is medicine. Laughter is good for your soul.”

As for making other people laugh, “You have to have it in you,” Strong said. “It takes a sense of humor. It takes intelligence. You’ve got to be witty.”

SPOTLIGHT ON BUSINESS

ith looming tariffs likely to push auto prices higher, industry insiders say now’s the time to buy.

It’s a buyer’s market, according to Robert Shastal, general manager of the Fox Automotive Group in Rochester Hills.

“Right now, buyers have an advantage,” he said. “If they wait, they could face higher prices, fewer incentives, missed opportunities on trade values, and the end of EV credits.”

Buying sooner may keep more green in your wallet, with tariffs on imported vehicles

WARREN, MI – In a world where weight loss surgery often takes center stage, two Warren men are proving that discipline, structure, and expert medical guidance can lead to equally life-changing results—without going under the knife.

Under the care of Dr. Sam Awada a global leader in the tness industry and a recognized expert in exercise science, obesity medicine, and sustainable weight loss, Greg M. and Nick G. began a physicianguided transformation in early 2025. Greg joined on January 27, followed by Nick on February 4.

In under six months, they lost a combined 215 pounds, each shedding more than 100 pounds, entirely through non-surgical means.

“If you told me I’d lose 100 pounds in six months, I would’ve called it impossible,” said Greg. “But Dr. Awada gave me a system that worked—he kept me accountable, educated me, and helped me believe in myself.”

Nick echoed that sentiment:

“I haven’t felt this good in 15 years—my back pain is gone, I t into clothes I hadn’t worn in years, and I’ve adopted a maintainable lifestyle. Dr. Sam changed my life.”

Dr. Awada credits their success to structure, consistency, and trust: “ ere’s no secret. When patients commit, and we provide the right tools and education, the results follow. ese two are proof.”

ese success stories are just part of the comprehensive care provided at 24 Hour Lifeline Urgent Care and Family Medicine—a full-service, physician-led medical facility and mini emergency room serving Warren and surrounding communities.

We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year— including holidays. We never close.

Ledell Griffin, of Galeana’s Van Dyke Dodge Ram in Warren, says the dealership’s inventory of Ram trucks is stacked, making it a great time for people to consider buying.

expected to lead to price increases in the near future.

“The tariffs and supply chain costs are rising, but right now, automakers are still holding their line with incentives. People will risk paying more once those costs hit because the manufacturers can’t take on the additional costs forever,” said Shastal.

Ledell Griffin, sales manager at Galeana’s Van Dyke Dodge in Warren, said tariffs will not only increase prices, but it will also affect incentives and how vehicles and parts are shipped.

“It’s passed down to the consumer, so it’s not something that the manufacturer pays for,” he said. “If a part used to cost $100, it might cost $150 to $200, depending on the tariffs.”

New vehicle inventory has rebounded to near pre-pandemic levels, so buyers also have a wider selection to choose from. And, with increased inventory, dealerships are more likely to offer deals to attract buyers.

“Whenever we have a lot of inventory, we put a lot of sales on, so that’s another good reason to buy, because inventory is now at an all-time high for me. I’ve never had so many trucks,” said Griffin.

Those interested in purchasing a new or used electric vehicle, or an EV, can also take advantage of savings, but only for the next two months. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 qualified certain electric vehicles for a tax credit of up to $7,500 for eligible buyers. However, the federal vehicle tax credit is set to expire Sept. 30.

“One of the big incentives for all brands is the federal EV tax credit — $7,500 on new, and $4,000 on used — which ends Sept. 30, making the next two months the last chance to capture that savings for a buyer,” Shastal explained.

If you already have a car and are looking to trade, industry leaders say now is an excellent time.

“Trade-in value remains strong and used car inventory is still tight, so the dealers are paying top dollar for trades, making it a great time to maximize the vehicle’s value,” Shastal added.

Life sentence

from page 3A

Baecke, who was 43 at the time, stood at a bus stop in St. Clair Shores that day where Burns later stabbed him several times.

Macomb County Circuit Court Judge Jennifer Faunce presided over Burns’ sentencing and jury trial. Steve Fox, an assistant Macomb County prosecuting attorney and the chief of the Major Crimes Unit, prosecuted the case.

Ryan-Parsley’s daughter, Jennifer Ryan, had a prepared statement read by Heather Morman, Macomb County’s chief victim rights advocate. In her letter, Ryan said her mother was her best friend, confidant and many other things.

“Her death didn’t just end her life, it destroyed the life we had and the version of me that existed when she was still alive,” Ryan said in the statement.

Ryan said in the statement she has lost many family members but that losing her mother this way “shattered” what was left of her.

“She was strong, smart and loving,” Ryan said in the statement. “She had survived so much already. She deserved peace and safety. Not fear, not pain, not the violence he inflicted on her, and I live with the weight of that every single day, something I never asked for.”

In the end, Ryan asked the judge to hold Burns fully accountable.

Fox said Ryan-Parsley’s husband, Larry Parsley, passed away before the end of the trial. He said Parsley was a machine shop worker with little use left in his hands and that Ryan-Parsley was his whole life.

“This blue collar, machine shop working guy broke down in tears,” Fox said. “And that speaks volumes to the type of woman she was.”

Burns’ attorney, Elisha Oakes, said he expressed remorse for what he had done that afternoon in 2023. She said that while the jury didn’t find any evidence of insanity, he does have mental health diagnoses.

“Even a presentence investigation report does say that he is a diagnosed schizophrenic,” Oakes said. Burns did not say anything during the sentencing.

He was convicted of eight charges related to the attacks. The list includes first-degree murder, assault with the intent to murder, multiple weapons charges, disarming a peace officer and a habitual offender charge.

Faunce called what Burns did a “horror movie in real life.”

“The random violence is rarely heard of in real life,” Faunce said. “It’s horrific. You left horror in the hearts of the family of Baecke and the Parsley family and all their friends that will never go away.”

Baecke was not available to come to court the day of sentencing.

Oakes, Fox and the Parsley family had no comment at the end of the case.

reunion and reception, an advertising book, a wedding anniversary Mass and reception, and much more. A documentary is in the works and filming day has been scheduled for Aug. 24.

St. Veronica Church, located at 21440 Universal Ave., celebrated its first Mass on Oct. 31, 1926. The church had a different building in the same vicinity. The current church was constructed in 1956.

According to stveronicaeastpointe.org, Lawrence and Helen Erban were the first couple married at St. Veronica on April 9, 1926, by the Rev. A. W. Soest, and the first Holy Communion was on June 12, 1927, with Soest officiating.

The Rev. Stanley Pachla, who has been at St. Veronica for 27 years, attributes the church’s longevity to the “steadfast parishioners that have been here for such a long time in a beautiful church.”

“They have come back to receive the sacraments, get baptized and get married,” he said, adding that multigenerational families have been supportive. “I’m very grateful to them.”

Darrell Nowak, of Eastpointe, has taken on the role of chairman of the anniversary committee. He also is a lecturer at the 4:30 p.m. Saturday Masses.

“It’s out of this world,” he said of the centennial.

He is a lifetime member of the church and attended its grade school as a child. The school, which was K-8, is now closed. Because there was not a high school, Nowak graduated from Notre Dame High School in

Harper Woods, which also is no longer in existence.

Nowak was baptized and also made his Holy Communion and confirmation in the church. Both of his parents were buried out of the long-standing church. Over the years, he has gotten to know many of the priests who have served the Lord and the parish.

“The first one I knew was Rev. Donovan,” he said. “Everything revolved around the church. I remember all of the teachers, a particular nun, Sister Alberta, and teacher Mrs. Kathleen Biecker. Both had good personalities. I remember their warmth and their interest in the students.”

Eastpointe resident and parishioner

Carol Reed also has been active in helping to plan the 100-year festivities. Her parents, Edwin and Winifred Rowley, always went to

the church and she has carried on the tradition.

“My mom and dad got married in the basement of the school in the 1940s,” she said. “My dad was a painter and he painted the rectory. My dad did work for the nuns and priests. People would be standing during Mass. It was so packed.”

Reed has many memories of the grade school. The eldest of seven children, Reed attended the grade school with her two sisters for $35 a year in tuition. Her brothers attended public school. She graduated from East Detroit High School, now Eastpointe High School.

Reed didn’t always enjoy being in class at St. Veronica.

“I felt like I was in prison,” she said. “I appreciate it now. I got an excellent educa-

tion and very good discipline. Going to church every morning was wonderful, the singing and the whole healing experience of listening to the hymns. All the priests, I really looked up to them and trusted them.”

The next anniversary committee meeting will be held after 11 a.m. Mass Aug. 17.

Resolution

from page 2A

According to Eastpointe officials, the holdup has left school districts without funding information as they plan for the new school year. School officials are making financial decisions without knowing how much support will come from the state.

During last Monday’s meeting, school board President Chineva Early turned the matter over to Trustee Ian McCain.

“I spent a number of hours reading through information from different news sources and from our affiliate and advocacy organization, the Michigan Association of School Boards. We received a template proposal through the Michigan K-12 Alliance,” McCain said. “This is based off of their template proposal with some things baked in that are a little bit more Eastpointe specific.”

McCain then read the entire resolution.

On July 29, ECS Communications and Marketing Coordinator Caitlyn Kienitz issued a press release that states the board’s resolution calls on the Legislature and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer “to pass a budget that fully and fairly allocates all funding meant for public schools.”

The district’s resolution states that

school aid fund dollars should not be used to fill budget gaps, be tied to or used to fund unrelated budget items such as road construction and maintenance, fund higher education or private education, or increase “onerous” reporting requirements for already struggling school districts.

The ECS Board Of Education said in the resolution that it believes a responsible school aid fund budget should provide a reasonable increase in the per-pupil foundation allowance, wrap-around special service funding including mental health support for high needs students, and fund safe, reliable student transportation.

The resolution also states that the school aid budget should allocate funding to certain non-education purposes, such as school infrastructure funding to support districts with older buildings and safety concerns. Funding also should be allotted for Michigan’s at-risk youth, English language learners, students in special education, intermediate school districts and regional educational service agencies, Great Start Readiness programs, school libraries, rural communities, career and technical education programs, and additional academic programs, according to the resolution.

Shooting

from page 3A

area, assisted by the St. Clair Shores K-9 unit, the St. Clair Shores drone unit, the Roseville Police Department and the Michigan State Police. All three suspects were taken into custody without incident, police said.

Holish said that a thorough investigation followed, and police recovered evidence of the crime. He said there is no current threat to the public, but detectives are interested to hear from anyone who knows more about the case.

The direct line for the detective bureau is (586) 445-5100, Ext. 1025.

The suspects

Since two of the three suspects are age 17, they are considered juveniles. A preliminary hearing was held for them in Macomb County Juvenile Court on July 23, the day after the shooting.

Referee Kristin Stone granted a special adjournment to the Prosecutor’s Office that allows the prosecutor more time to review the facts of the case and decide whether the juveniles should be tried as adults in order to protect the public.

Stone denied the juveniles bond and ordered them to remain in the Juvenile Justice Center pending their next preliminary hearing, which was scheduled at that time for July 30.

On Aug. 1, the decision was announced to charge one of the two juveniles as an adult.

Joshua Dismuke, 17, of Warren, was arraigned the day prior, July 31, at the 38th District Court in Eastpointe before Judge

Kathleen Galen. Dismuke was charged with one count each of the following: assault with intent to murder, a felony punishable by life in prison or any number of years; weapons felony firearm, a two-year felony sentenced consecutive to the main charge; and discharging a weapon in or at a building, a 10year felony.

Dismuke is also charged with tampering with evidence in a criminal case, a 10year felony; carrying a concealed weapon, a five-year felony; larceny of weapons, a fiveyear felony; lying to a peace officer during a violent crime investigation, a four-year felony; assaulting, resisting or obstructing a police officer, a two-year felony; and minor possessing a weapon in public, a 90-day misdemeanor.

Galen set his bond at $1 million cash. Dismuke will continue to be detained at the Juvenile Justice Center in Mount Clemens. If he pays bond, he will be required to wear a GPS tether and prohibited from contacting the victim. He is also prohibited from carrying firearms or using substances such as alcohol or nonprescription drugs.

Dismuke did not have an attorney at press time, according to court records.

“While the defendant is a juvenile, the charges, particularly assault with intent to murder, are extremely serious, and the decision to charge him as an adult reflects the gravity of the offense,” Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido said in a prepared statement. “Our responsibility is to seek justice for the victim and ensure accountability, regardless of the age of the offender. We recognize that this is a tragic situation all around, but our priority is supporting the victim and making clear that acts of violence

will have serious consequences.”

The third suspect is Paul Wilson, 19, of Warren. He is currently lodged at the Macomb County Jail. He was arraigned July 25 in Eastpointe’s 38th District Court.

He is charged with assaulting/resisting/obstructing a police officer, a two-year felony. His bond was set at $50,000 cash or surety with the opportunity to pay 10% of the amount and be released.

At press time, Wilson did not have an attorney, according to court records.

“It is always a tragedy when someone is seriously hurt or even killed because of an argument,” Holish said via email. “People should not resort to physical violence and the use of weapons because they have a simple disagreement.”

Sacred Heart

from page 4A

“I’m continuing to fight this,” he said. “Go ahead, destroy the church, tear it down. I can’t stop them from doing that, but I have legal rights to try to stop the Sheetz from coming in here.”

Stross added that he feels bad for the families who have relatives buried at the cemetery at the church.

“My heart goes out to all the people that have family members buried at Sacred Heart’s cemetery. I tried as hard as possible to try to save the church. … It hurts me just as much as it hurts them,” he said.
