“My heart stopped twice. An implant device ensures a third time won’t be the charm”.

– derric m.

When Derric suffered sudden cardiac arrest, his life flashed before his eyes. A rhythm disorder had Derric moments from death.

But Community surgeons placed an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) into his chest to reduce the risk of his ventricles going into a dangerous rhythm. The ICD does on the inside, what shock paddles do outside. The technology allows Derric’s heart to be continually monitored. He is back to smiling while watching his kids swing in perfect rhythm on the playground.

Exceptional care. Simply delivered.

When Financial Strategist Tammy Havard joined the City of Westfield’s staff in 2008, one of her main projects was FINANCE auditing revenues from the city’s food and beverage tax, implemented in 2005, to ensure the city was receiving everything it was owed.

The issue originated with the ZIP codes in the City of Westfield.

“The basic premise is Havard there’s issues with the ZIP codes and how businesses self-report and identify with a taxing entity,” Havard said.

“So, an example is Village Park Plaza on 146th Street. North of 146th Street is Westfield.

That’s one of our heaviest retail, food and beverage areas. The Dept. of Revenue, when those businesses file, ask whoever is filling out the form, ‘What is your taxing unit?’ and the people say, ‘My address is Carmel,’ and they write Carmel, and therefore the (Westfield) taxes got remitted to Carmel.”

More than a decade later, Havard said the problem appears to be resolved.

“In March 2008, they finally fixed the issue after a meeting that Westfield had with the Indiana Secretary of State’s office, and the Indiana chief information officer was able to incorporate geocoding into INBIZ, which is the one-stop shop for businesses to register, file taxes and do everything they would need to do,” Havard said.

Since 2008, the City of Westfield has completed five major audit adjustments. The total amount discovered through the audit of what Westfield is owed exceeds $1 million.

“Each time we have had these distributions, we have had to talk to the Dept. of Revenue and talk to the entity that currently has our money because it was distributed.

It was just distributed incorrectly,” Havard said. “For example, in 2014, Carmel owed us over $500,000 through this audit process. We set up a payment plan with them, and that payment plan will have everything (paid) by March 2019, and that will truly be the last reconciliation of this food and beverage tax issue.”

The city also encountered another jurisdictional issue through the Alcohol Tobacco Commission with licenses that were distributed to Carmel that should’ve gone to Westfield.

Through that auditing process, the city re-

ceived an additional $29,000.

“Throughout all of this, there has been lots of persistence,” Havard said. “I’m very excited this 10-year project is finally over. We’ll still audit, but it seems like it is finally done to where we don’t have to put as much energy into something that shouldn’t have been an issue to begin with.”

Because of annexation, there are seven Westfield-area ZIP codes. They are Westfield’s ZIP code of 46074, two Carmel ZIP codes of 46032 and 46033, a Noblesville ZIP code of 46062, a Zionsville ZIP code of 46077, a Cicero ZIP code of 46034 and a Sheridan ZIP code of 46069.

The recovered tax money goes into the city’s general fund, which funds city departments like the police department and the public works department.

“Just having the revenue due to us is important, especially as a growing community,” Communications Director Vicki Duncan Gardner said. “It would be very easy given all these ZIP codes to lose track of this. The seriousness from which we take our finances, this is a great example of that.”

Havard said Westfield isn’t the only Indiana city that has encountered the jurisdictional issue.

“The City of Westfield is trying to actually fix the processes and the systems that are broken and not just do the one-time corrections because we want it to get to a point where we don’t have to do this exercise,” Havard said. “It doesn’t just impact Westfield.

There are a lot of other cities and towns that have the same jurisdictional issue, Carmel with Indianapolis, for example.”

Legislators talk hate crime bill at local town hall

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com

Indiana lawmakers recently took time to hold a public town hall meeting Jan. 26 at the Hamilton GOVERNMENT County Government and Judicial Center in Noblesville to discuss issues in the current legislative session.

State Sens. J.D. Ford (R-Indianapolis), John Ruckleshaus (R-Indianapolis), Victoria Spartz (R-Noblesville) and State Reps. Tony Cook (R-Cicero) and Donna Schaibley (R-Carmel) took part.

Moderated by local attorney and government commentator Abdul-Hakim Shabazz, topics ranged from teacher pay to school safety to medical marijuana. But the one topic that took up most of the discussion time was proposed hate crime legislation.

Speaking directly to Cook, who has authored a hate crime bill introduced to this year’s General Assembly, Shabazz asked for additional detail.

Cook’s bill would implement terms for sentence enhancements, whereby a person must first be convicted of the crime associated with the hate crime, and also outlines what qualifies as a hate crime.

“When the sentencing comes, that’s when the prosecutor can argue for an enhancement to the sentencing. Since the (U.S.) Supreme Court ruled on (hate crimes) in 1993, they established protected classes and categories – race, gender, religion, age – the types of things we all have,” Cook said.

“People will argue that it’s just unlimited, but you know some of the states that have it, like Wisconsin, have had it since the 1980s.

So, what (I) did was glean out the best (categories) that have stood the test of time. My bill has 13, including all the ones in the Civil Rights Act, but it also adds sexual orientation, sexual identity (and military and law enforcement). I tried to take it and base it on FBI data, the number of incidents we were seeing in Indiana. The top three were race, sexual orientation/identity and religion.

“I think we’re past the time where we can do nothing. Right now, I’m frustrated because I’m not sure the bill will be heard, which I don’t think is the democratic process, to be honest with you.”

The 13 “identifiers” laid out in Cook’s bill are age, race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, ancestry, color, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, status as a police

officer and service in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Schaibley, speaking after Cook, said she is “absolutely behind” the bill.

“I live a little over a mile away from the synagogue in Carmel, and I’ve been supportive of hate crimes legislation for years,” Schaibley said. “What happened at the synagogue was an act of graffiti, but it’s not normal graffiti. When you put a Nazi cross on a synagogue, that’s meant to intimidate the Jewish community and people at the synagogue. It has ramifications beyond just simple graffiti.”

Schaibley also spoke on how the state’s lack of hate crime legislation is potentially hurting the state’s economy and business communities.

“We are one of five states without hate crimes legislation, and when people look at coming to Indiana, they look at that,” she said. “Young professionals look at that. We want to keep young people in Indiana, and if we want to attract young employees, especially tech employees, we have to move this thing forward.”

Ford, the lone Democrat participant, agreed with Cook and Schaibley.

“I think with this bill, all we’re asking judges to do is take a look at the situation,” Ford said. “(Not having a hate crime law) does portray us to be a very backwards state. It’s the right thing to do.”

Spartz didn’t voice disapproval or support of Cook’s proposed bill, but rather discussed her frustration with the time spent debating the issue with no resolution.

“I would like us to debate and discuss this issue, figure out the best solution and move on so we don’t have to do this every year,” she said.

All Pro Dads forms at WWES

Better together.

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Tyler Enyart and his wife moved to Westfield 1 1/2 years ago and immediately fell in love with the community. Their FAMILY twin children, Audrey and Zach, are first-grade students at Washington Woods Elementary School.

Enyart organized a meeting between WWES administrators and said because of his love for the community, he wanted to get more involved.

“What better way than through the school? I want to start a dads’ group,” Enyart said.

Administrators were all aware of All Pro Dads, a national organization that encourages father figures to be involved in their kids’ lives and be good role models. Former Indianapolis Colts Coach Tony Dungy is a national spokesperson for the organization.

“We said, ‘Let’s try starting an All Pro Dads chapter. They do a great job in providing that platform and curriculum and everything for you,’” Enyart said.

The 5K route, left, and the 10K route for the Feb. 23 Melt the Trail race. (Submitted photo)

Winter race returns for fifth year

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

The City of Westfield is again playing host to one of its main winter events, the Feb. 23 Melt the Trail 5K and 10K race EVENT through Grand Park.

The route has been amended for both races to take runners or walkers along the newly completed portion of the Monon Trail up to 199th Street. The race starts at 9 a.m. at Grand Park Events Center, 19000 Grand Park Blvd.

“We wanted to add the Monon Trail extension to the course because it provides a canopy, so if it’s cold out, hopefully it’ll block the wind, and it’s prettier,” Westfield

Welcome Director Angie Smitherman said.

Because the race has been pushed further into February in hopes of better weather, the event will not be Valentine’s Day themed as in previous years. Smitherman said participants can wear their favorite winter-themed running outfits. And because the start and finish lines are outside, there will be no pre- or post-race activities.

5K prices are $30 but will increase to $35 Feb. 17 and will rise to $40 Feb. 23. 10K prices are $35 and will increase to $40 Feb. 17 and will rise to $45 Feb. 23.

Runners and walkers will be timed on both routes. For more, visit westfieldwelcome.com.

Peyton first female president of Westfield Washington Historical Society

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Events are coming full circle for Diana Peyton.

The Westfield resident helped start the Westfield Washington Historical Society in 1995 with her husband, COVER STORY Jim, and Dave Mikesell. This year, Peyton will serve as the society’s first female president.

Peyton, the human resources manager for the City of Westfield, is retiring from her job in March. Initially, she wanted to wait until she was retired before considering the president’s role, but she was voted in, anyway. She cast the only opposing vote.

“The last few years, (society officials) kept saying I’m going to be president, and I’m like, ‘No,’ and this year I really wanted to wait until I retired because I wanted to give this 100 percent,” she said. “I know until I retire in March I’ll be limited, but I went ahead and took it.”

Peyton has a wealth of ideas she wants to implement, such as extending the society’s reach into classrooms.

“I want to make it fun, and I want to put my whole heart into this,” she said. “History and preserving it is my passion. I want to build the society, and I want it to be fun. History is fun. I’d like to get into the schools and contact the history department to get more information into the schools.”

Peyton also wants to encourage local businesses to become a part of the society. She also wants to continue a picnic program launched last year at MacGregor Park in northern Westfield. The WWHS received one-time permission to use a golf cart on the trails to transport disabled and elderly residents around the park.

“That was so fulfilling,” Peyton said. “People who never actually had been around that park because they couldn’t walk it were thrilled. We had lunch and a noodle-making demonstration.

We had quite a few people that day.”

Peyton and WWHS members are discussing bringing programs into the Sanders Glen Retirement Community.

“I would just like to bring more recognition to the historical society and get people more involved, because you know what?

This is about everybody,” Peyton said.

Westfield Mayor Andy Cook shares Peyton’s urgency in preserving history in Westfield.

“We have to be sure that we never forget our history. It is part of who we are,” Cook said. “The historical society helps us keep that link. Additionally, they are instrumental in recognizing that we, as a growing community, are making history today.”

Bringing younger people into the society is another of Peyton’s goals.

“Somebody’s going to have to take an interest because we are getting older,” Peyton said. “This is going to have to be handed down to someone to protect our history and our artifacts and to keep it going.”

Peyton said the presidency appointment is humbling.

“It means a lot to me to be able to help and to be challenged,” she said. “This is going to be a real challenge. I don’t want to just do the norm. I want it to be great.”

Prior to a recent move, the Westfield Washington Historical Society was housed in an old fire station on Union Street in downtown Westfield. Recently, the WWHS moved its museum to Westfield City Hall, 130 Penn St., in the upstairs area, which is exactly where Diana Peyton started her career with the city, then a town, 24 years ago.

“I started in the upper room (of City Hall) in a room next to the town manager,” Peyton said. “This (building) is where I was hired and where I worked until about 10 years ago when I went down to the other building (Westfield City Services).”

ESSAY Changing batteries

LETTER No access

Commentary by Terry Anker It is doing it a little bit today.

And, it is incredibly annoying. The little arrow that glides across the computer screen is jumping from one spot to another. It started a few days ago. The movement became somewhat jagged, as if it were being dragged along rather than sliding effortlessly. We know the problem. It happens every so often. It is time for new batteries.

Still, we endure the inconvenience. Frustrated, we might take out the existing batteries and put them in again. For reasons that elude understanding, it seems to make the device work for a short while longer. Some of us allow the mouse to “rest,” as if the batteries will spontaneously recharge.

Eventually, even the most frugal are confronted with the inevitable need for change. We cannot wait longer.

The functionality is so debilitated – or even stopped – that we must find our way to the supply closet to retrieve replacements. Yet, we hope that there are batteries to be had, in the event the person before took the last one and left us to replenish the supply.

What is it that compels us to wait until the last drop of energy is exhausted before acting? Are we that lazy? Are we that conservative? Or, is it simply a reflection of our innate and natural state? We don’t tend to move until we must.

And, we work to avoid the peril of having to replace the battery supply if we use the last ones.

But from the simple things can come a clear representation of our thinking. How much of our lives is ready for a recharge if only we’d take the action required to make it happen? Is now the time?

Weighty matter of sleep Commentary by Danielle Wilson My greatest joy in life is a good night’s sleep (after my kids, of course. I’m not that terrible a mother).

HUMOR To that end, I’ve spent a lot of time and energy (and sometimes cash) to create the perfect nocturnal environment. The right mattress, a high-end sound machine, black-out blinds and a tube sock that masquerades as, well, a mask, come together each evening, preferably before 9 p.m., to help me achieve the ultimate eight to 10 hours of restorative ZZZs. Unfortunately, I’m not always successful.

I live with three teenagers, a bald man and a 6-year-old Labrador who thinks she’s a Chihuahua puppy. I also have reached that stage in life when hot flashes, multiple potty breaks and financial anxiety occasionally conspire against me, typically from 1 to 4 a.m. Despite my best efforts and 600 threadcount sheets, I’m lucky to have two decent nights in a row.

That is, until now! My latest acquisition, though still in the early test phase, is proving to be the miracle, quite literally, of my dreams. It’s a 20-pound weighted blanket that looks like a typical quilted comforter but is too heavy to lift. In fact, when I crawl underneath it, I have a hard time moving.

At all. And that’s the point! Sure, the first few nights I thought I was slowly being suffocated to death, but I can honestly report that during the past month, I’ve slept more soundly and deeply than ever.

Doo says it’s psychosomatic: I think I should be sleeping better, therefore I am.

But who cares? I’m experiencing my second greatest joy nightly! See? Mother of the Year!

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK There is not charm equal to tenderness of heart.

-Jane Austen

Editor, I am sitting here at the start of my 10th day without access to online banking at BMO Harris. On Jan. 18, they took the site down for “an exciting new upgrade.” Since then, I have been unable to see my balance, check automatic bill pay, schedule new bill pays, check automatic deposits and all those other things I have come to rely on them for. They say the outage affects “a very small percentage.” So, why does Facebook have more than 1,000 comments about it?

Surveys show less than 1 in 10 will complain about bad service. I wonder how many of those will actually take the time to write a comment versus just talk to the manager. If it is “a very small percentage,” why does it take more than 45 minutes to reach a customer service representative on the phone?

If it is “only a very small percentage,” why does the customer service phone menu say they are not accepting calls about the app, password resets or other online-related subjects? I believe they are trying to avoid a public relations nightmare. As for when they expect to have a fix, the only answer I have gotten in the past six tries has been, “We expect to have it fixed soon, try again in 24 hours.” It’s time to reload the old app or fix this one. When a bank loses the confidence of its depositors, it’s time to move to another (if you can get to your money).

Chuck Sewell, Westfield

READER’S VIEW Express both sides Editor, I am writing to express concern and displeasure with the patently derogatory and overtly political cartoon by Tim Campbell you chose to print in the Jan. 15 edition of Current in Westfield. From a quick online check, this isn’t the first time you have been called out on this. Three weeks ago, another reader expressed concern about another Campbell cartoon deriding Joe Biden.

Campbell has a long history of promoting significantly rightleaning viewpoints.

It is interesting that on the same page as the recent cartoon featuring U.S. Rep. (Alexandria) Ocasio-Cortez on a dunce cap, under Policies, you mention for guest columns that they: “Should address the whole of Current’s readership, not simply special inter-

est groups…”. As an aside, Ocasio-Cortez has a degree from Boston University. She clearly is anything but a dunce. Being progressive doesn’t mean she’s not intelligent.

It is apparent that the ownership at Current feels free to promote their conservative agenda without providing a progressive counterbalance.

I assure you that “the whole of Current readership” contains a variety of viewpoints, including progressive ones. Perhaps it’s time to find a less inflammatory politicized cartoonist.

Maybe consider avoiding the political arena altogether. I would suggest that you best serve the readership by keeping your political leanings to yourself and serve the public with unbiased reporting of the news.

Bruce W. Van Natta, Westfield

This was a real ad: “The McDonald’s free bacon offer will take place on Jan. 29, 2019.

Customers may add bacon to HUMOR anything for free.”

Yes, bacon on your fries, in your McFlurry, on your Big Mac or in your backpack.

Back in 2007, the Food Network published its “Bacon Issue” (this was a marketing effort to compensate for its relatively poorselling “Tofu/Kale Issue”). The cover featured chocolate bacon cupcakes, and a lollipop made of bacon — the perfect way to lure little ones away from sugar, which we all know is so unhealthy.

The magazine contains a detachable booklet with 50 recipes for bacon appetizers — things like bacon jam, bacon-wrapped bananas and bacon ice cream. If you are stuck at a party where the only hors d’oeuvre is a vegetable plate and yogurt dip, you can leave the brochure next to the broccoli before you split for the Rib Shack.

There are countless recipes for bacon-y desserts. How about a giant BLT cake that looks like the classic sandwich? The bacon is fashioned out of Tootsie Rolls, the toma-

toes are made of red gummy bears and the mayo is plain white frosting. Sliced angel food cake substitutes as the bread. Don’t ask me about the lettuce. Trust me. You don’t want to know.

A survey asks, “Do you like your bacon crisp or not crisp?” The result was 72 percent crisp and 28 percent not crisp. It is the only poll in U.S. history where there were no undecideds.

Bacon-of-the-month clubs deliver a different kind of bacon right to your door, with recipes and ads for the latest bacon products like bacon rub, bacon-flavored envelope flaps and bacon-flavored lip balm. I may join either Bacon Buddies or Pork Pals. I quit my old group: My wife didn’t like my getting packages from “The Strip Club.”

Finally, we read stories about bacon obsession, like the bride who carried a bacon bouquet shaped like roses.

Yes, this is a sickness. Ironically, no one wants to be cured.

WHS to host third annual dance marathon

Special Limited Time

By Noah Alatza news@currentinwestfield.com Dance Marathon will return for the third consecutive year to Westfield High School.

The initiative raises FUNDRAISER money and awareness for Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. The event will be from 5 to 11 p.m. Feb. 15 inside the Multipurpose Instructional Facility at the high school, 18250 N. Union St. President of WHS’s Dance Marathon Abi Gift said she has been involved with the program since its inception in 2017. The WHS senior said getting people registered this year has been a challenge.

“With everyone being involved in sports, all of the call-out meetings (for Dance Marathon) have been under-attended,” Gift said.

“But we are optimistic about our numbers because we have been able to educate the school about what Dance Marathon is, so we are expecting to see the same numbers as the previous years.”

The Recovery Room, formerly known as A Better You Wellness, in Carmel will open a second location in Grand Park at 200 E. 186th St., Westfield, inside GROWTH the Pacers Athletic Center.

The Recovery Room specializes in sports recovery.

“We help people recover quicker after workouts, after injuries and after surgery,” co-owner John Miles said. “Our services have a lot of mental benefits, too. Because we help with circulation and getting more oxygen to the brain, we can help with things like anxiety. We can help with a variety of issues, but we mostly see athletes recovering after workouts.”

Services at the new location will include whole body cryotherapy, local cryotherapy, NeuroSpa, Game Ready and NormaTec. “Game Ready is compression combined with hot and cold therapy,” Miles said. “It takes your skin temperature from upwards of around 120 degrees down to around 40 degrees in about 20 seconds. NeuroSpa is a chair that combines vibration, sound and light therapy together. It helps your body get out of the fight-or-flight response, so it helps your brain kind of turn off for a little bit.”

Day passes, monthly passes and annual passes are available. Pricing will be the same at both locations, although the

Westfield location will not offer the same infrared sauna or float tanks offered at the Carmel site.

“The day pass will be $39, a month pass will be $89 and an annual pass will be $799,” Miles said.

The Carmel location opened in 2016. Miles plans to open the Westfield location by March.

“One of our biggest demographics is student-athletes,” Miles said. “Having the opportunity to place ourselves inside Grand Park and inside the Pacers Athletic Center gives us the opportunity to get in front of a ton of them.”

Kruze takes on legendary role of Atticus Finch in Civic’s ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Steve Kruze is ready to tackle a legendary literary role.

Kruze will play attorney THEATER Atticus Finch in Civic Theatre’s production of “To Kill a Mockingbird” Feb. 8 to 23 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Finch defends a black man, Tom Robinson, falsely accused of raping a white woman in Alabama in the 1930s.

Kruze said he has always seen the story as told through the eyes as Finch’s daughter, Jean Louise, nicknamed Scout.

“I’m trying to be honest to what she remembers her father to be,” Kruze said.

“Telling this story to a contemporary audience is difficult because the language can be coarse. We’re being as honest to script as it is. It’s still relevant and still important to have the discussion.”

Kruze, a Plainfield resident, is pleased there will be matinees for students and teachers.

“We’ll have a discussion with young people on what does this mean, first. Have things gotten any better (as far as racism)? And if not, what can we do?” he said.

“The thing we’re exploring about Atticus is he wants to get it right, he doesn’t have to be right. He’s trying to impart that to his children. It’s been an interesting process to figure out who he is.”

Kruze hasn’t read the book by Harper Lee since high school 35 years ago.

“I only saw the movie one time in college,” Kruze said.

Gregory Peck famously played the role of Finch in the 1962 movie.

“The movie is its own thing from the play, so there are some differences,” said Kruze, whose wife, Christine, is cast as Miss Stephanie. “There are some liberties that have to be taken from the book to condense it into a certain amount of time.

It’s difficult to take any classic literature and boil it down. What do you leave out?”

Dorothy is a role Abby Drake has longed to play.

“I’ve loved ‘Wizard of Oz’ THEATER since I was tiny,” Drake said.

“Judy Garland was my hero, so I cried when I found out.”

The 17-year-old Westfield resident will play Dorothy in the Christian Youth Theater’s production of “The Wizard of Oz,” Feb. 8 to 10 at Marian University.

Drake, a homeschooled junior, is performing in her fourth CYT production.

“This is the most lines I’ve ever had and there are only two times where I’m not on stage,” Drake said. “And dancing in heels is rough.”

Gavin Stewart, a seventh-grader at Carmel’s Clay Middle School, is cast as his favorite “Wizard of Oz” character, too.

“I always wanted to be the Cowardly Lion,’ Stewart said. “The Cowardly Lion is very animated, and I have a lisp. It’s fun to be over-exaggerated.”

As a sixth-grader, Stewart played Toto in Clay’s production of “Wizard of Oz.” Christian Baltz, a Carmel resident and an eighth-grader at Merle Sidener Gifted Acad-

emy in Indianapolis, is cast as the Tin Man. “I wanted to be one of (Dorothy’s) three friends,” Baltz said. “It’s such an iconic show and when you get to play an animated character in a dreamland, it’s a lot of fun.”

Guerin Catholic High School freshman Marci Marcus, a Carmel resident, is playing the Scarecrow.

“I thought I would have to play it as a man, but they said they keep my gender,” Marcus said. “My dad showed me the show and I completely fell in love with it.”

MSP stages ‘Perfect Crime’

By Rick Morwick • rick@youarecurrent.com Margaret Thorne Brent is a renowned psychologist with a successful practice in an upscale Connecticut comTHEATER munity. But she might also be something else: A coldblooded killer who has just committed the perfect crime.

Or, she might not be.

Either way, Cheryl Fesmire, who is directing Main Street Productions’ presentation of the nuanced play “Perfect Crime,” is confident audiences will have lots of fun finding out.

“I am a fan of good mystery thrillers, in novels and onstage,” said Fesmire, a veteran director and stage performer. “This play has a lot of legitimate clues throughout as well as some red herrings. It is not your mainstream play, that is for certain, but I believe mystery lovers will enjoy it.”

Written by American playwright Warren Manzi, “Perfect Crime” begins an eight-show run Feb. 8 at Westfield Playhouse, 1836 W. Ind. 32, and concludes Feb. 24.

MSP’s presentation features a largely local but highly compact cast of five characters, only four of which appear onstage.

“You’ll have to see the show to find out

how the other character appears,” said Fesmire, an Indianapolis resident who is directing “Perfect Crime” for the first time.

Georgeanna Teipen, Greenfield, plays Margaret Thorne Brent, who may or who may not have killed her wealthy husband, W. Harrison Brent. Jeremy Teipen, Georgeanna’s real-life husband, plays Harrison. Thom Johnson, Westfield, plays Lionel, one of Margaret’s patients. Michael Smiley, Fishers, plays Inspector James Ascher, who investigates the murder, and Steven Marsh, Westfield, plays David Breuer, who hosts a local cable television show.

Steak, marinated pork, shredded pork, pulled pork, beef tongue, chicken mole, chorizo and grilled chicken are available for $3.50. Fish or shrimp tacos are $4.

I opted for one grilled fish, one shrimp and one grilled chicken taco. One of my main reasons for going to Verde is it doesn’t skimp on fillings and has a soft taco shell that can accommodate the surplus of ingredients. All of Verde’s menu items I have ever tried always taste fresh and authentic.

Suggested pairings: Verde offers a margarita flight, which I highly suggest. The Margarita Trio is $12 and comes with mini servings of the restaurant’s patron, Texas and house margaritas.

They arrive on a cute little wooden board, and they all taste amazing and feature garnishes like pineapple wedges or lime slices.
