Ken’s Comments

by Ken Raney We l c o m e to Spring 2017, we have had an unusual winter, with some record high temperatures and some very cold days as well.

We look forward to Spring that will bring renewed life and vigor to the world. Our outstanding Youth program is featured in this issue of Profiles. Throughout this issue, you will see the accomplishments and recognitions earned by our Junior members for their hard work and dedication during the past year. We want to thank the many sponsors who made it possible for all the pictures to be presented in this issue. We also want to thank the leaders, advisors and parents who support and encourage our Youth to participate and succeed, our Youth programs would not be possible without your guidance and enthusiasm.

The Juniors are in the midst of their fund-raising activities to support our state programs: we had a Fun Auction at the Adult Convention which raised over $4,200. We want to thank the 31 donors and buyers who were so generous with this support. The youth are also working on our annual Calf Raffle, this year the calf is donated by Scarlett Summer Holsteins, Muncy, PA. The winning ticket this year will be drawn at the Eastern Elite Sale in September in Harrisburg.

Opportunities are available to purchase tickets to support our youth programs.

The Northeast District members were excellent hosts for our 2017 Conventions.

The hospitality and friendly atmosphere that was evident at both conventions made all feel welcome. We appreciate the work of all the members who helped plan and conduct both conventions in Scranton.

A special thanks to all the Sponsors, Commercial Exhibitors and Donors who helped make the programs a success.

The next couple months will be busy will local and regional sales and 6 - March 2017 - PA PROFILES

Many of county sales use the profits from the sale to subsidize other local Association activities. It is also an excellent time to visit with many of your neighbors and friends, take advantage of the many opportunities that Registered Cattle give you and enjoy a day at a sale.

As a reminder, when you are buying animals for a youth member to show, make sure to get them transferred before June 1st. Animals must be in the Junior members name and processed by Holstein USA before June 1 for all cows and heifers to be eligible for youth recognition.

Pennsylvania Holstein continues to actively market cattle through private treaty sales, so please keep David Lentz informed of your marketing needs.

Umble “Udderings” - Ken Umble PA Holstein President I had the privilege of spending a couple of weekends in the “Electric City” of Scranton this past month as the junior and adult Holstein conventions were convened. I used the opportunity to introduce my 9 year old grandson Grant, to the fun and excitement of the youth activities and what an electrifying time it was. During the time that I was honored to assist in the DJM interview competition, a very gracious and selfless “Grammy”, Beth Raney, took Grant under her wing and got him settled in to watch the junior jeopardy contests.

Thanks, Beth! I was amazed at the amount of knowledge and expertise these kids displayed thru their posters,

speeches, interviews, photos, and dairy bowl and jeopardy competition. We can take pride in knowing that PA will be well represented in Washington at the national convention this summer!

Hopefully next February there will be a group of Chester county youth involved in those contests as the 2018 Pa State Convention is scheduled at the nearby Lancaster County Convention Center. It was also great to see little Reese Burdette taking in all the activities and not missing a moment of it!

Three weeks later the adults enjoyed a great time put on by the northeast district folks. Thanks to John Wetmore and others who pulled off a couple of very interesting host day tours, banquets and of course a fantastic dairy bar! These fun events don’t just happen on their own but need lots of volunteers to help plan and run them.

Please, when you are asked to help on a

committee, could we all sacrifice a few hours of our time to contribute toward these worthwhile functions? Many hands make work light!

We were also privileged to be able to be a part of the National Holstein USA meeting and hear comments and discussion from CEO Meyer and the rest of the team. Vice President Boyd Schaufleberger graciously emceed the hall of fame banquet and concluded it with a poem (see page 48) written by his daughter Amy (soon to be Mrs. Brad Hoover) titled “These Cows”. What an awesome way to end an enjoyable weekend because it was because of “these cows” that we were drawn to Scranton. Not only because of their accomplishments but also because of the people involved with them.

Marilyn and I truly have made and continue to make incredible friends in this industry and it’s because of “these cows”. Yes it does take time and extra resources to get away to these functions but it is worth it and more for the encouragement and support that is felt from friends who know many of your same trials and struggles. Join us next year and I promise you won’t be disappointed. - Ken Umble

These cows.

The reason we all had to wait until Dad was done milking to open presents on Christmas morning. Why we had to always rush to make it to functions on time. These cows are the reason we don’t go out much at night but also allow us to spend so much time together as a family. These cows are the reason I built character as I stood at the bottom of the class and the reason for a sense of pride as they stood at the top.

These cows are the reason we get up well before dawn but never miss a sunrise. The reason we all have to work long hours every day of the year but never miss a pretty Illinois sunset. These cows are the reason I never have girly hands but it’s a reminder that it takes hard work to be successful.

These cows have allowed us to make friends all over the world. They taught me the circle of life and how fragile it is.

These cows have shaped my life for the last 26 years. They played a role in so many good memories. These cows give you a sense of purpose that most others don’t ever feel. They have been part of our family. My parents have planned life around these cows. My dad has devoted his passion to these cows. They’re the reason he never gets a nap but the reason he’s been so successful and should be so proud. Here’s to the memories. Here’s to the next chapter.

From the President’s Desk — by Dean Jackson

Ernest L. Wolfe Ernest L. Wolfe, 70 of Wolfe Road, Milton, passed away on Friday, February 3, 2017, at the Milton Nursing and Rehab Center.

He was born July 23, 1937, in Mazeppa, a son of the late Harry F. and Minnie (Hauck) Wolfe. On July 30, 1955, he married the former Jennie P. Peterman who survives. His passing breaks a marital union of 61 years.

Ernest attended school in Montandon. He was a lifelong farmer, farming 1,000 acres at his peak, and he owned E & J Meadows now known as Wolfe’s Power Line Dairy. Ernest and Jennie built E & J Meadows Dairy Store on their own and at one tie he sold Badger Equipment.

He was a member of the Holstein Association, the Farm Bureau of America, the Pennsylvania Young Farmers and the Potts Grove Fire Company. He was a past member of the Buffalo Valley Riding Club. Ernest enjoyed hunting, horseback riding, and square dancing.

In addition to his wife, he is survived by four sons, Dennis (Anna) Wolfe, of Lewisburg, Dean Wolfe, of Virginia, Roger (Brenda) Schorr, of Montandon, and Ray (Lisa) Wolfe, of Milton; one daughter, Kathy Jo (Wayne) Beiber, of Potts Grove; three sisters, Pearl Weaver, of Camp Hill, Isabelle Byrd, of Milton, and Margaret Seybert, of Bloomsburg; 13 grandchildren; two step grandchildren; and 13 greatgrandchildren.

Ernest was preceded in death by six brothers, Ralph, Robert, Dale, Kenneth, Paul and George Wolfe; and one sister, Gladys Baker.

Services were held on Thursday, February 9, 2017 with Rev. Dale Hippensteel officiating. Burial was in the Montandon Cemetery.

Memorial contributions maybe made to St. Andrew’s United Methodist Church, 102 Lower Market Street, Milton, PA 17847, or to the Potts Grove Fire Company, P.O.Box 16, Potts Grove, PA 17865.
