Humble Wickens remembered for powerful voice

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Eric Wickens possessed a strong bass/baritone voice that had a way of grabbing listeners.

“They felt it, and it in appreciation moved them,” Kelly Wood Wickens said of her late husband. “They would wait to talk with him and they would send him cards. Every time, he was humbly thankful. He never expected it. He sang because he felt like he had to because it was his gift, and he had to share that gift. He was so very humble.”

Wickens, a Fishers resident, died at age 48 Aug. 12 of a sudden heart attack shortly after singing the national anthem at a Little League Central Region’s Great Lakes championship baseball game in Grand Park in Westfield.

After singing the national anthem at several Indy Fuel hockey games in 2014-15, Wickens became the Fuel’s regular national anthem singer in December 2015.

Kelly, who was married to Wickens for 4 1/2 years, described her husband as introverted.

“He was quiet, so people were amazed that he could go sing in front of 5,000 people. I was able to give part of his eulogy, and I could talk to hundreds of people,” she said. But I couldn’t talk to 5,000 or sing to 5,000. That dichotomy was Eric, that’s who he was.”

Kelly and their 3 1/2-year-old son, Quincy, were not at the game. They had seen him sing “The Star

Spangled Banner" the previous week at a baseball game at Grand Park.

“Eric was an outstanding person,” said Jeff Neidlinger, Indy Fuel director of game operations. “When he would sing our national anthem, he would light up the arena with his vocals. He became a known name around the Indy area and especially at our Indy Fuel games. Eric was always a pleasure to work with, and he will be missed greatly by myself, our staff and our fans.”

Tony Fannin, a Geist resident, was a friend and a business partner of Wickens.

“It was very shocking,” Fannin said. “He was at our house the (day) before, and he was in good health. He played racquetball that morning.”

Fannin and another friend helped Wickens make his first music video.

“On a one-on-one level, he’s introverted,

but put him in front of a crowd to sing, and he could do it very easily,” Fannin said. “A lot of sincerity came through. People saw he was very authentic in what he was doing.

He was a very genuine person. He showed his passion because often people talk about what they would like to do but don’t do it. He seldom talked about it, but he actually did it.”

Anderson Highland High School choir teacher Jean Miller met Wickens when he was 18. They shared their love of music and pizza through the years.

“As a senior he was a very serious student, and he loved to sing the classics, particularly Russian composer classics,” Miller said. “He was a bass singer. He was tremendously polite as a high school student, and that’s very impressive.”

Miller and Wickens made a recording together, with Miller playing piano and Wickens singing, his senior year. They did another a few years ago.

Wickens released an album, “Comfort,” in 2013. He was the managing director of VOCE, a professional ensemble, which performed at his Aug. 19 funeral in Indianapolis.

Donations are being accepted for Eric J. Wickens Memorial Fund, which will help with expenses and Quincy’s future education needs, at any Huntington Bank branch or Huntington National Bank, 11640 Olio Rd., Fishers.

Charity golf outing set Sept. 21 for St. Jude

By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com The sixth annual American Legion Post 470 and Epsilon Sigma Alpha-Eta Pi Charity Golf Outing will be Sept. 21 to event benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The event will be at River Glen Country Club, 12010 Clubhouse Dr., with a dinner to follow at the American Legion Post 470, 9091 E. 126th St. “We always do the golf outing to benefit St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.

St. Jude in Memphis (Tenn.) is one of the national philanthropies that we do events for, volunteer for and raise money for,” said Wendy Hahn, member of Epsilon Sigma Alpha. “One-hundred percent of the proceeds will go to them.”

During the last five years, ESA has raised more than $50,000. The goal is to raise more than $15,000 this year. The cost to participate is $125 per golfer or $500 per foursome. Golfers will play 18 holes and participate in contests.

Hiking for mental health HSE grad hikes Appalachian Trail for awareness

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Derick Walsh knows what it’s like to not give up. The 22-year-old Fishers High School graduate is cover story nearing mile 1,600 of the Appalachian Trail in Massachusetts. He started May 8 in Georgia and will finish the trek in approximately a month. The trail is 2,189 miles.

Walsh is hiking for mental health awareness, attempting to raise $11,000 for the Riekhof Foundation for Youth Hope in Fishers. Peyton committed suicide in 2013. The foundation works to educate the community and schools on youth and teen mental health issues and suicide prevention.

Walsh said it was a lifelong dream to hike the Appalachian Trail. He attempted the feat once before. The first time he stopped after about 500 miles. This time, he’s motivated to finish.

“When I was a kid, I saw a YouTube video of the Appalachian Trail and thought it was the craziest thing ever,” he said. “I always dreamed of doing it, and that’s why I’m doing it. As far as why I’m hiking for mental health, that just came along with it. I knew it’s a big event. I knew I could make a difference if I attached it to a charity.”

Walsh said he’s experienced mental health issues firsthand. He connects the perseverance of combating mental health to hiking.

“The mental health thing, it’s all about keep going, never give up on your life, and I think that connects a lot to hiking, especially this trail. There have been a lot of tough parts,” he said. “The hardest part is mentally grinding it out every single day. Don’t quit. Never quit. There’s days it sucks. There’s days it’s great.

Just never quit. You can’t quit. You have to keep going, press on. It’s working toward that one goal.”

Walsh traveled alone the first half of the hike. In North Carolina, he met up with two men traveling in the same direction and has hiked with them since.

After his first attempt to hike the trail, Walsh began training. His regimen included running 10 miles a day. He hikes

to junior-high and intermediate-school students. The foundation has done a wonderful job working with our school district to find gaps and then help fill them in regards to meeting the mental health needs of our students and preventing youth suicide.”

So far, Walsh has raised $1,700 for the foundation. Its biggest expense this year is for student support groups at Fishers and Hamilton Southeastern high schools.

an average 20 miles a day.

His longest day so far is 35 miles.

Hamilton Southeastern Schools Mental Health Coordinator Brooke Lawson stressed the importance Lawson of the involvement of the Peyton Riekhof Foundation for Youth Hope in the school system.

“The Peyton Riekhof Foundation for Youth Hope has been a wonderful partner for HSE schools, and we are so lucky to have

them as a part of our schools and community,” she stated in an email to Current.

“The foundation has provided materials to help train our teachers in suicide prevention, held convocations for students at both high schools about mental health and suicide prevention, held community events to help people learn more about mental health, funded a licensed mental-health therapist to run peer support groups and provide therapy for high school students at each high school, and given presentations about suicide prevention in classrooms

Total length: 2,189 miles Current distance traveled: 1,600 miles Fundraising goal: $11,000, which equals approximately $5 per mile Scariest situation: While hiking, 22-year-old Derick Walsh came across a mother bear and her two cubs.

The bear charged at Walsh. “I was in a national park in northern Virginia around mile 900 and I had music blaring, and I came around this corner and there was this bear about 10 feet away,” Walsh said. “I couldn’t hear it or see it, and then I did and put my hands up like you’re supposed to. It was about to pounce on me. If I had taken one more step, I think I would’ve died. It was probably the scariest moment of my life.”

Average miles a day: 20 Most miles in one day: 35 Help from others: Walsh began his trip alone but met two other hikers in North Carolina that he’s traveled with since. Random people have offered them services. “People have taken me to their house off the trail, and people will give us food and take us into their homes and let us shower,” Walsh said. “It gives us faith in humanity again.”

What’s next: When he returns from the Appalachian Trail, Walsh said he isn’t sure what he’ll do next, but he might return to college. He was enrolled briefly at IUPUI studying computer information technology.

Flushed reputation

o b s e r v a tion Tools at the ready Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Although television, films and the 24hour news cycle, populated by ubiquitous talking heads, might be flattening it a bit, we Americans can still enjoy some nice regional dialects. Brooklyn and Boston each have their own. New Orleans, the Midwest and the valleys of Los Angeles all have unique expressions and pitch. But among the favorites must be the eccentric and entertaining idioms of the great state of Texas. With a sure-fire twang and dead-eyed pithiness, our friends to the southwest get, grinning, to the heart of the matter.

If one is said to have a big hat, no cattle, it notes that the object of assessment is likely pretending to be of greater import than its actual holdings might support.

Another personal favorite is that hapless soul who is always fixing to get ready. We all know folks who make it their business to be in a constant state of planning. One might imagine that planning is good. Yes. Yet some of us spend so much of our lives preparing that we fail to reserve any time for the doing!

When is the preparation to end and the executing to begin? If we move too fast, we are rash and lack forethought. Still, if we move too slowly, we fall into a near endless loop of self-reinforcing insecurity.

As a young man, I asked a wise, elderly neighbor when was the best time to trim an overgrown shrub. The man responded by asking me if I had a sharp pair of clippers. He made a good point. Shouldn’t we have our tools ready (education, capital and relationships) so that we are set whenever an obstacle and the time to address it presents?

Last week, I was using the girls’ bathroom at the high school where I teach, and when I flushed, my keys and humor ID badge fell into the toilet.

Suddenly aware of time epically slowing down, I plunged my longsleeve-shirted arm into the tainted water in a futile attempt to rescue them. Alas, the entire set-up was gone before I could even scream “NOOOOOOOO!” I then immediately relayed the story to everyone I saw. First, the three horrified juniors standing outside my stall, who’d heard everything but had no context. Then to my posse of teacher friends, chatting in the hallway. And finally, to my seventh-period class, who’d listen to anything if it meant a postponement of actual history stuff.

I assumed I’d be met with laughter and possible wishes for good luck as I navigated administration hell to obtain new credentials. But without exception, their expressions ranged from shock to disgust.

Why? Because I’d willingly stuck my hand into a bowl full of urine.

Look, people. I’m a mom. I’ve probably changed close to a million diapers, cleaned up enough bodily fluid to own a hazmat suit and continue to consistently pee myself whenever I run, laugh or sneeze. Last month, when I had to scrub the basement toilet after it had been clogged for something like 13 days by a king-sized “deposit,” I literally didn’t flinch. I’ve seen worse.

I acted on instinct, honed by years in the field of motherhood. My only thought was, “Save the keys!” But now I’m “that crazy teacher” from the bathroom with highly questionable decision-making skills.

Peace out.

Taking God’s name in vain is profanity

It was with some surprise and disappointment that I was greeted with a profanity in the opening salvo of the “Goodbye summer” article (published in Aug. 8’s opinion section).

As a practicing Catholic, I take my faith very seriously. The column was headlined with “humor” as the tag. It was not funny to me.

Doctors used to take the Hippocratic Oath that includes a 'do no harm' line.

Writers might adhere to more of a 'do not offend' stance. In this hypersensitive time that we live, my humble caution

is be careful when putting something in print. You might consider steering way clear of writing something that you wouldn't say in front of a room of grandparents.

Your audience might be larger than you imagine.

Taking God's name in vain, whether in print or conversationally, is not acceptable in our home (and I dare say many of your readership).

Sorry, folks, you stepped in it this time.

Sleepwalking and sticky notes Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Whenever I pick up the newspaper, I find medical news contrary to previously reported findings. humor Now there is some perplexing medical news for me to digest: The sleeping pill I take may not help me get better rest, but may only have an amnesia effect. In other words, I may be up all night tossing and turning, but the next morning I don’t remember having trouble staying asleep. Just what I need: Something else to keep me up all night.

The more I thought about this, the crazier it made me. My pill bottle label said it can cause sleepwalking, so I could be wandering throughout the house, then in the morning not remember anything.

I experienced this in college. Up all night cramming for a test, then not recalling a thing the next morning (and I was drug-free then).

My brother was a sleepwalker. He’d get up and grab a rod and reel from the garage, then walk out the front door at 3 a.m. My mother wanted to call the doctor, but my father said we needed the fish.

I asked my wife if she’s noticed anything

out of the ordinary lately. “Well, we’re always out of cat food,” she responded. That scared me, since I’ve gained a few pounds in the last month. “Also, I’ve noticed in the mornings that your bathroom is spotless. All your pill bottles are back in the cabinet. Your toothpaste tube has its cap on and all the towels are folded. Maybe you are sleepwalking.”

“Mary Ellen, do you really think I walk around the house at night and don’t remember?”

“It’s possible. You don’t remember a lot of things.”

Last night I put sticky notes around the house, so if I started sleepwalking, I could jot down what I did to jog my memory. This morning, I discovered I had gotten into the fridge and polished off the remainder of my wife’s homemade chicken cacciatore.

I’m glad I made a note of that. Sometimes I forget what a good cook she is.

What type of sofa is right for me?

By RG DECOR z

@RGDecorindy

Have you thought about replacing that old sofa?

Where do you start? Who INTERIOR DESIGN can you trust? The options are endless! So what makes a quality sofa?

3 things: springs, frames and cushions. Quality sofas are handcrafted and each piece must be constructed from the best materials to guarantee it will be free from defects and last a lifetime.

SPRINGS: a heavy gauge steel spring system provide the base for a wonderfully comfortable and long-lasting seat and should be placed 4”-5” apart to withstand the wear and tear that comes from everyday use. What type of spring system does your sofa have?

FRAMES: constructed of furniture grade laminates and solid kiln-dried hardwoods must be built to last.

Mortise and tenon, double dowel and corner block construction should be added to provide solid long lasting joints. Ask your retailer does the frame have a lifetime warranty? How are the corners built?

Eclectic, Spirited & Wonderfully comfortable the Maddox sectional by Robin Bruce.

CUSHIONS: cushion cores should be made with eco-friendly, high-resiliency foam and wrapped shape. Down feather jackets are also available. Ask your designer how long is the cushion warranty?

Second Stories antiques opens

By Jessica Hoover news@currentinfishers.com Second Stories, co-owned by motherdaughter duo Angie Cornelius and Aimee Ector, is not an ordinary new biz antiques store. Opened Aug. 12, the store at 6288 W. Broadway, McCordsville, has a variety of items that are old, new and renewed.

According to Cornelius, the name Second Stories is derived from her and her daughter’s love of refurbishing old items.

She said it gives the items a second story and a second life.

“Say we find three chairs,” Cornelius said. “There used to be four but now there’s three. Nobody wants to buy three chairs, but we do. We find all this old stuff. When there’s not anything wrong with it, it just needs love. So we bring it completely back to life. We’ll take an old sewing machine cabinet and turn it into a desk, a table.”

Ector and Cornelius’ passion for finding antiques eventually turned into buying an old building to open Second Stories. To prepare the building, they tore open the

floors but kept the original wood, which was more than 100 years old. They also repainted the inside and parts of the outside, with more renovations to come.

In addition to refurbishing items, Cornelius and Ector also rent spaces for vendors and sell people’s items for a percentage of the profit. Cornelius said their vision for Second Stories is for it to be unique.

“We have diversity,” Cornelius said. “We have that charm and the happiness that we want people to feel when they walk in.

Dry needling gains popularity

Did we reconstruct his ACL . . . or his dream?

An innovative form of physical therapy is gaining popularity in Indiana.

Dry needling is now offered by OrthoIndy Physical physical therapy Therapy at its Fishers and South locations. Dry needling is based on neuroanatomy and is used for the treatment of a multitude of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular conditions.

“The procedure causes a small lesion with a fine filament needle in the muscle to create a chemical and neurological response, allowing the muscle to relax and decreasing pain, said Jeff Sorg, director of OrthoIndy Physical Therapy. “We are very happy to now be able to offer dry needling at OrthoIndy Physical Therapy.

“Dry needling is gaining popularity due to its ability to often achieve immediate positive results, with decreased pain and improved movement and function.”

Jan George, a physical therapist with IU Health Saxony in Fishers, said dry needling has gained popularity because insurance companies now allow patients to see a physical therapist without a physician’s

approval.

George said physical therapists assess each patient and that dry needling is not a cure for specific maladies.

“It’s not like we use dry needling for a certain diagnosis,” George said. “You look at the patient as a whole and say, ‘How can I incorporate the best tools I have to help this patient get better?’”

According to OrthoIndy’s press release, conditions that respond well to dry needling include athletic and overuse injuries, tendonitis, chronic neck and back pain, headaches and post-surgical pain.

Jared will tell you, both. That’s because the ACL reconstruction that Shelbourne Knee Center did on Jared’s knee not only got him back on same level as before the injury. Which has made his dream of playing college football a reality. As Jared says, “All over their walls are pictures of athletes with thank-you letters. I knew I was in good hands.”

A large, multi-center study found that only 50% of patients return to their sport at the same level. Yet similar research at Shelbourne Knee Center has found that greater than 90% of Shelbourne patients return to sports at the same level. Which proves we’re not only specializing in knees, we’re specializing in your recovery. Just ask Jared. He came in with a torn ACL, and walked out with his dream intact.

Exceptional care. Simply delivered.

The top tailgate dessert is a bar that the tailgater can enjoy while standing and without a fork. A dessert like that also saves on space, which is often limited during a tailgate. Here is a recipe for No Bake Peanut Butter Cup Bars. Pack in a square container in your food cooler.

Ingredients: 4 cups crushed graham crackers, 2 cups powdered sugar, 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup melted margarine or butter, 1 cup melted chocolate chips Directions: Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave. Be sure to keep any and all water from the chocolate.

In a bowl, mix grahams, sugar and peanut butter. Add the melted margarine and press the mixture into an ungreased 9-by-13 baking pan. Top with the melted chocolate.

Cool and cut into bars 12 bars. These taste like peanut butter cups, only better.

Blueprint for Improvement: family-friendly kitchen Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

Before

Background Info: This 1960s home in the Sylvan Ridge neighborhood in northern Indianapolis was a perfect space for the owners to grow with their young family.

The original kitchen, however, was closed off from their living space.

The goal was to create an open-concept kitchen that blended with the adjoining spaces and increase overall functionality so the owners could grow with their family!

1. The largest modification included removing the wall between the kitchen and the living room and replacing it with bar seating for the kids.

2. The next significant change was removing the bulkheads, making the height of the ceiling flush with the connecting spaces.

3. Additional changes included removing the peninsula that divided the kitchen from the bay window. This allowed a contrasting island with a single-bowl sink and a microwave drawer.

4. The addition of a pull-out snack pantry and spice accessories allowed for more efficient storage.

After

Before problems: The previous kitchen was confined by a wall and two small doorways dividing the area from the remainder of the lower level, making the space appear small. Additionally, the bulkheads made the ceilings appear lower and broken up. The kitchen still had its original cabinets, which lacked appeal and functionality.

11555 N. Meridian St. | Suite 530 | Carmel, IN 46032

If you suspect your child may have a learning disability or behavior problem, it’s a good idea to have him evaluated by a psychologist who specializes in educational evaluations. There are generally three basic types of evaluations: an initial evaluation to determine a child's eligibility for special education, a re-evaluation of a child who has already undergone an initial evaluation and an independent evaluation.

Federal law requires school districts to identify, locate and evaluate students with disabilities which adversely affect their education. If you suspect your child has a disability, ask his school for an initial evaluation.

Always put your request in writing. Even if you talk to the teacher in person or on the phone and she agrees to set it up, I have parents send an email to the teacher and copy 2-3 other school employees, such as the special education director and a counselor or principal, simply confirming the conversation—or just put the request in an email to begin with. This makes it harder for the school to claim that it "never received" your request for an evaluation and is good evidence documenting your request.

The school generally has to provide the evaluation at no cost to the parent, but there are a couple of conditions. First, the parent has to consent to the school psychologist conducting the evaluation. If you request an evaluation and the school agrees to provide it, the school does not have to perform it until you sign a consent form allowing it to do so.

This is an exception to the general advice I give parents: Don’t sign anything. Your child will not be eligible for special education until he has been evaluated, so signing the consent to have the school psychologist evaluate him is an important step toward getting the services he needs.

Sign it!

Second, the school has 50 school days after you sign the consent to complete the evaluation and meet with you to discuss the results. If you wait until the end of the school year to sign the consent, the 50 days do not begin to run until school starts—your request is on “hold” all summer.

For this reason, it's best to sign the consent as early in the school year as possible. If you ask the school for an evaluation and it refuses or you disagree with the school’s evaluation, contact me and I’ll be happy to advise you on your options.

A re-evaluation may be appropriate for a child who hasn't been evaluated recently, especially if his condition changes or he develops a new diagnosis. Under the law, a school only has to "consider" re-evaluation every three years—basically a meaningless requirement. All a school has to do is say "OK--we 'considered' re-evaluating Johnny, so we've complied with the law." This another reason it’s a good idea for parents to ask for an evaluation or re-evaluation.

Another option is an independent educational evaluation, or IEE. This is performed by a private psychologist who is not affiliated with the school district. I prefer these evaluations over school evaluations because the psychologist is not biased in favor of the school and will recommend services based on the child's needs as opposed to the cost to the school district. If you choose an IEE, it’s important to see a psychologist experienced with educational evaluations. The two situations where I generally recommend parents get an IEE are when the child needs an evaluation done sooner than the 50 school days or if the parent disagrees with the school's evaluation. There are certain procedures to follow if you want the school to pay for an IEE, so it’s a good idea to speak with a lawyer familiar with special education law before pursuing this.

If you think your child may need an educational evaluation, feel free to call (317/569-2200) or email me (tblessing@hzlegal.com) for a free consultation. I’ll be happy to answer your questions, review documents and refer you to a qualified private psychologist.

The I’s have it Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Stop! Grammar time.

If you watch “The Bachelor “(which I most definitely do grammar guy not), you probably hear the following phrase ad nauseam during the “confessional” videos: “Topher and I’s relationship is really special. I think he may be the one.” Then the next girl comes in and says literally the exact same thing.

It seems like the natural thing to say.

In “The Bachelor” example, Topher and “I” share a relationship. In order to make Topher possessive (which he totally is, by the way), you would add ‘s. “Topher’s.”

Pretty easy.

Now, to make “I” possessive, you actually get rid of it altogether and replace it with “my.” “My” is the possessive form of “I.” So, to correctly speak or write this sentence, you would say, “Topher’s and my relationship is really special.” I know that sounds awkward, but it’s correct. If you want to avoid this awkward linguistic limbo, you can simply say, “Our relationship is really special.”

When you are referring to two or

more people who share the same thing, you only need to add ‘s to the last person listed. So, if you’re a contestant on “The Bachelor,” and you are referring to another girl’s relationship with our boy Topher, you would write/say, “Topher and Krystyn’s relationship makes me want to hurl.” Even though that’s a terrible way to spell Kristen, it’s a grammatically correct sentence.

In the case of multiple owners who have separate ownership, you add ’s to each name. Krystyn and Ashlee each have a different relationship with Topher, so if you were griping about their relationships, you’d say something like, “Krystyn’s and Ashlee’s relationships with Topher make me want to eat my feelings.”

This grammar terminology of compound ownership is called compound, or joint, possession. And while joint possession is still illegal in most states, good grammar is always welcome.

Statue of Ronald Reagan in Budapest, Hungary. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Budapest’s dueling memorials Commentary by Don Knebel

Americans strolling through Budapest are often surprised to encounter a bronze likeness of Ronald Reagan travel near Hungary’s magnificent Parliament Building. They are even more surprised that he is striding toward a memorial honoring the Soviet Red Army. There is a story here.

In early 1945, Hungary, aligned with Germany during World War II, surrendered to Russian troops and came under the control of the Soviet Union. The Soviets removed statues from Freedom Square, an area southeast of the Parliament Building, and erected a large stone obelisk in the center of the square celebrating the “liberation” of Hungary by the Red Army. Many in Budapest did not see the Red Army as liberators, especially after that army put down an anti-Soviet uprising in 1956.

After the break-up of the Soviet Union, Budapest residents wanted to remove the Red Army memorial, but a treaty guaranteed its continued presence. So they decided to dilute the memorial’s significance

with a memorial of their own. In 1996, with funding from a local real estate developer, residents erected a statue of Imre Nagy, a hero of the 1956 uprising, between the Red Army memorial and the Parliament Building.

Nagy is standing on a bridge, with his back to the memorial and his face toward Parliament, a symbol of Hungarian independence.

In 2010, nationalist politicians demanded the removal of the memorial to the Red Army. Fears of Russian reprisals led to another memorial. In 2011, a 7-foot statue of Ronald Reagan, who had not been in Budapest during his presidency, was erected between the Red Army memorial and the Parliament Building to recognize President Reagan’s contributions to the collapse of the Soviet Union. A vigorous-looking president stares right through the Red Army memorial toward the United States Embassy on the other side.
