Daviess among counties approved by FEMA for disaster assistance Gov. Mike Parson announced July 30 that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) agreed to the state’s request to provide federal assistance to local governments and nonprofits in 68 counties, including Daviess, recovering from flooding and severe storms between April 29 and July 5.

The approval of Missouri’s July 16 request means FEMA will assist with the cost of repairs to damaged roads, bridges, and other public infrastructure, along with emergency response costs associated with the storms and flooding.

The counties approved for public assistance by FEMA are the following: Adair, Andrew,

Atchison, Barry, Barton, Bates, Bollinger, Buchanan, Caldwell, Camden, Cape Girardeau, Carroll, Cedar, Chariton, Clark, Cole, Dade, Dallas, Daviess, Douglas, Gentry, Grundy, Harrison, Henry, Hickory, Holt, Howell, Jackson, Jasper, Knox, Laclede, Lewis, Linn, Livingston; Macon, Maries, Marion, McDonald, Mercer, Miller, Mississippi, Monroe, Montgomery, New Madrid, Newton, Nodaway, Ozark, Pemiscot, Perry, Pike, Putnam, Ralls, Randolph, Ray, Ste. Genevieve, Saline, Schuyler, Scotland, Shannon, Shelby, Stoddard, Sullivan, Taney, Texas, Vernon, Wayne, Webster, and Wright.

“This is important news for local governments in these 68 Mis-

souri counties because it means they’ll be receiving very substantial assistance in recovering from high disaster repair and response costs,” Gov. Parson said.

“I’m proud of the way Missourians are pulling together to recover from flooding and severe storms. This federal assistance will greatly assist in those efforts and speed the pace of recovery.”

FEMA’s decision also makes available assistance through its Hazard Mitigation Program to prevent or reduce long-term risk to life and property due to natural hazards.

Gov. Parson said the state expects to request the Public Assistance disaster declaration to be expanded to include additional

Wisconsin brothers feared dead

A cattle business deal gone bad has law officers in Northwest Missouri searching for the remains of two Wisconsin brothers reported missing since July 21. Authorities are now terming the search as a “long term death investigation.”

The brothers are Nicholas Diemel, 35, and Justin Diemel, 24.

They are co-owners of Diemel’s Livestock in Bonduel (Shawano County) near Green Bay, WI. According to the Green Bay Gazette, the Deimel brothers traveled frequently to Missouri in conducting their business.

Nicholas Diemel rented a 2019 Ford F-250 truck from Budget Rent a Car. The vehicle was found July 22, the day after the brothers were reported missing. The truck was abandoned in a commuter parking lot in Holt near Interstate 35.

Garland Joseph “Joey” Nel-

son, 25, of Braymer was charged Friday with tampering with the truck that was rented by the missing brothers. He is being held without bond at the Caldwell County Detention Center. Court proceedings have been set for tomorrow, Aug. 1.

GPS route information from the truck’s black box showed the Ford was at Nelson’s farm outside Braymer on the morning of July 21. Nelson admitted to driving the vehicle from the farm to the commuter parking lot although he had no permission to do so.

More than two hours later, the truck was seen on video near a Casey’s General Store in Polo, according to charging documents. There appeared to be no passenger in the front seat of the truck.

When found in the commuter parking lot at Holt, the keys were

in the ignition and the lights were on, where Nelson admitted leaving it. No reason has been given as to why Nelson drove the truck.

Once the truck was located, the search became a death investigation according to Caldwell County Sheriff Larry Fish.

According to a report published in the Kansas City Star on July 30, investigators are sifting through several properties including the 74-acre Braymer farm where Nelson worked. As the search for evidence continues, several agencies are investigating numerous leads voiced by people in the area. Authorities have searched multiple sites in both Caldwell and Clinton counties, ranging from buildings to ponds.

Records show Nelson has been previously convicted in federal court in a separate case. In

counties as joint teams can fully assess damage in other counties.

FEMA continues to review the state’s July 16 request to expand assistance to individual residents in the 25 counties of Adair, Barton, Callaway, Cape Girardeau, Christian, Clark, Cooper, Dallas, Douglas, Gasconade, Grundy, Harrison, Hickory, Howard, Jefferson, Laclede, Lewis, Macon, Marion, McDonald, Newton, Polk, Saline, St. Louis, and Ste. Genevieve.

President Trump’s July 9 disaster declaration was for flooding and severe storms and made the federal Individual Assistance program available to eligible residents in Andrew, Atchison, Boone, Buchanan, Carroll, Chariton, Cole, Greene, Holt, Jackson, Jasper, Lafayette, Lincoln, Livingston, Miller, Osage, Pike, Platte, Pulaski, and St.

Charles counties.

Through July 29, FEMA has approved more than 910 households for Individual Assistance grants and provided more than $4.2 million directly to Missouri flooding and storm survivors to assist with their recovery. The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has approved more than $1.7 million in low-interest loans for Missourians.

FEMA’s National Flood Insurance Program has paid more than $22 million to Missouri policyholders for flood claims filed since March. More than 1,524 claims have been filed.

To register for FEMA assistance, go to www.DisasterAssistance.gov or register by phone by calling 800-621-FEMA (3362).

Telephone registration is available 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. (local time), seven days a week.

Bethany man guilty of burglary, theft Mark Allyn Kortz, 51, Bethany, was found guilty of burglary in the second degree and stealing in a two-day jury trial which convened in Daviess County Circuit Court on July 25.

The jury began deliberations at 2:02 p.m. on July 26 and returned the guilty verdicts at 3:15 p.m.

According to court documents, Kortz and two other subjects unlawfully entered property at Pattonsburg between June 24 and June 25, 2017. They took items valued at approximately $13,000, including a log splitter, chainsaw, and generator. Kortz was positively identified by surveillance footage.

Kortz is set for sentencing on Oct. 16, 2019, before Judge Ryan Horsman.

Keith Albert Shafer of Grant City, one of the other subjects charged in the crime, was found guilty of burglary in the second degree by jury trial in Caldwell County on April 16, 2018, and was sentenced to 10 years in the Missouri Department of Corrections. The jury found Shafer not guilty of the stealing charge.

Shafer’s case was a change of venue from Daviess County which was heard by Judge Brent

Elliott. During the proceedings of the case, a mistrial was declared on Feb. 28, 2018, prior to the completed jury trial.

The case against Yvette Shaw of Jameson, another subject who was charged in the crime, is still pending in Daviess County. She faces identical charges of burglary and stealing and is set for a plea or trial setting on Aug. 6, 2019.

Jury trial on sex case underway Courter Theater awning down, tuck pointing next

The sign above the Courter Theater is no more.

The awning was taken off the theater building because the front of the building leaked and needed to be sealed, according to Amy McMahon, Gallatin Theater League (GTL) President. Tuck pointing will begin next week by Dodd & Sons. The windows across the top of the theater will also be replaced.

GTL will be looking at options to replace the awning. Mrs. McMahon noted that the much needed repairs wouldn’t be possible without the support of the GTL patrons program and the community.

Kramer Construction, Jamesport, removed the awning July 25. Shown are Chad Weaver, Kingston, on the lift and Dustin Unruh, Jamesport, on ladder.

OPINION

July 31, 2019

What a hug can do Not all change is bad.

I can’t remember exactly when I changed, but I am today a guy who hugs. I wasn’t raised that way. Once past the toddler stage and certainly as I became a teenager, I never received many hugs from my dad. That’s not exactly the John Wayne persona he exemplified.

I never doubted his support or love for me or for anyone else in our family. He just wasn’t a hugger, and I grew up trying to please him in every way.

Thus, for years I labored with anxieties whenever confronting those circumstances when a hug was entirely appropriate, especially when among men. I now view these as opportunities wasted.

Don’t get me wrong. You can overdo hugging, of course, just as you can get too much of any good thing. It’s entirely wrong to just assume everyone welcomes a hug.

One time, in a church setting no less, I was pleased to greet a young lady who once frequented our home so often I thought of her as a daughter. We hadn’t seen each other in years. I was so happy to renew our friendship that I gave her a little hug …and felt her stiffen and pull away without so much as a Off the Editor’s Spike... smile. I didn’t mean to offend. When I later mentioned this to my daughter, she explained how her friend was never much of a hugger. She remains quite the opposite.

So, qualms about hugs are not necessarily a guy thing. If anything, choosing not to hug at least lets you deceive

by Darryl Wilkinson yourself that you (not them) are in control during such awkward circumstances. It’s always easier to go with the John Wayne approach, to avoid awkward moments.

Then, something unexpectedly happened. I look back and now consider it a tipping point.

I was neck deep into the “rat race,” losing patience and my grip on sanity battling a host of things I viewed as unsurmountable problems.

I didn’t allow anyone to see how frustrated and alone I felt facing a host of anxieties — some financial, some personal, some imagined (and mostly self-inflicted).

At the time, the newspaper was just off the business square and my office inside was apart from others working there. I didn’t exactly encourage interruptions; I even directed the gal at our front desk to tighten down on her duties as gatekeeper. I was determined that somehow, some way “John Wayne” would just figure things out. I felt alone trying to man up; I didn’t yet realize I was such a mess.

I was surprised when this little freckle-faced girl strode confidently into my office. Oh, I was vaguely aware she was wandering about as her aunt concluded some business. But I didn’t recognize her nor her me. And yet here she came confidently toward me. She walked around my desk, reached out and said, “Let me give you a hug.” And she did, despite me sitting there like some toad. Then she stepped back and just looked at me. Waiting.

I don’t know if you believe in God or what you think about guardian angels. But I know what happened to me in that moment. This side of death we may not understand the peace that passes understanding, but sometimes we are allowed a glimpse. That hug was an epiphany to me. My priorities reset.

With no intentions of being melodramatic, I’ll just say that, in the very least, the moment changed my thinking and ways about hugs.

This happened decades ago; it remains today as clear as any memory I am blessed to relive.

Over the years my sons also have helped me with this. There are few things more satisfying than seeing your boy grow into manhood, accepting you and you him as an adult on equal terms, and giving you a hug or two along the way. To be honest, the John Wayne persona is still my first impulse. But I’ve come to learn how many opportunities I’ve wasted, learning just what a hug could and should be.

Yes, I’m a slow learner. But I’ve changed. Oh, you don’t have to worry about me gushing hugs on you or someone you’re with unexpectedly. John Wayne never dies easily. But compared to where I once was, I’ve come to understand hugs differently.

Sometimes change is good. Even a John Wayne knows that.

Hugs might be much more important than you realize. Maybe I’m failing to put into words exactly what I’m trying to get you to consider.

Let me try another way. I wish I could say I wrote the following poem, whose source to me is anonymous. But I now share it here with you, in hopes you’ll give it more than just a casual view:

It’s wondrous what a hug can do.

A hug can cheer you when you’re blue.

A hug can say, “I love you so” Or, “I hate to see you go.”

A hug is “Welcome back again” And “Great to see you …where’ve you been?”

A hug can soothe a small child’s pain, And bring a rainbow after rain.

The hug, there’s just no doubt about it – We scarcely could survive without it!

A hug delights and warms and charms, It must be why God gave us arms.

Hugs are great for fathers and mothers, Sweet for sisters, swell for brothers.

Chances are your favorite aunts Love them more than potted plants.

Kittens crave them, puppies love ‘em, Heads of states are not above them.

A hug can break the language barrier, And make travel so much merrier.

No need to fret about your store of them, The more you give, the more there’s more of ‘em.

So, stretch those arms without delay And give someone a hug today!

‘No’ to impeachment the right choice

by Congressman Sam Graves

Since the day President Trump took office, America has been making a comeback.

President Trump’s agenda to lower taxes and cut unnecessary regulations has put American workers and American businesses first, and we’re reaping the rewards of these pro-growth policies.

Our economy is booming. Job growth is on the rise and unemployment is at its lowest point in nearly half a century. Small business optimism and consumer confidence are soaring. President Trump promised to make America great again, and he’s doing just that. I’ve been proud to help him along the way.

Despite this great American comeback, some radicals in Washington are still chomping at the bit to impeach our President.

Just last week, a third attempt was made to impeach President Trump. It failed — again. I was proud to stand alongside every Republican and independent member of Congress in opposing impeachment — along with 137 Democrats.

On top of that, the House brought in former Special Counsel Robert Mueller to tell us what we already knew. Mueller, along with some 19 lawyers and 40 FBI agents, spent 22 months and $25 million digging for evidence.

They issued 2,800 subpoenas and conducted 500 witness interviews, and what did they find?

Zero, zilch, nada, nothing, NO COLLUSION. It’s not about that though.

Those gunning for impeachment are the same folks who want to enact so-called “Medicare for All,” the “Green New Deal,” and

other disastrous legislation that would destroy Medicare, start a total socialist takeover of our economy, and open our borders to illegal immigrants.

This is about turning back the clock on all the economic progress we’ve made over the last few years. This is about pushing forward a radical agenda that will set America back years, if not decades.

Instead of continuing these theatrics and wasting more time, the House needs to get back to doing the people’s work. There are plenty of real problems we should be working on fixing — like making sure folks have the help they need to recover from the Flood of 2019, securing our border, and fixing our nation’s crumbling infrastructure.

It is my hope that the House can finally get back to work.

Concerns on ‘Viking funerals’

by State Rep. J. Eggleston

This report is my second covering the six bills that Gov. Parson vetoed. In this write-up, I will discuss the governor’s concern about Viking funerals. Confused?

Read on and I will explain.

The governor vetoed SB282 and HB447. SB282 started off as a bill to tweak the paperwork process of doctors providing death certificates when a Missourian dies.

After going through the legislative process, the bill passed with additional language that would (1) adjust who the nextof-kin decision maker is for the burial method of a loved one, (2) bring about a greater awareness of organ donation to save the lives of sick Missourians, which was my language from HB450, and (3) allow for outdoor cremations on a funeral pyre if the deceased’s family so chose.

HB447 started as a bill to adjust the training standards and other qualifications of county coroners. In the end, it had also gained language relating to (1) pregnancy associated mortality review boards, (2) disposition of human remains, and (3) the outdoor cremations language that was also added to SB282.

Gov. Parson had issues with the outdoor cremations, which in discussion got nicknamed the Viking Funeral language, since the Vikings were known for disposing of their dead loved ones by putting them on a small boat, lighting it on fire, and setting it adrift on a lake. It was also sometimes called the Jedi Funeral language since, in the Star Wars

books and movies, deceased Jedi knights were honored by being burned in a funeral pyre.

In the governor’s veto letter, he stated “The burial of our loved ones or the disposal of their remains is deeply personal and should be treated with the utmost care and respect.

“Without more thorough vetting to ensure that outdoor cremations can be conducted in a manner that fully disposes of the entire remains while also addressing the health and safety concerns of individuals who may be impacted nearby, I am not comfortable with allowing these types of ceremonies to be con-

ducted in our state.”

The vetoing of SB282 and HB447 effectively killed some language that did not relate to the outdoor cremations. Some states allow for a line item veto where the governor could veto only certain provisions in bills instead of the whole bill, but our state does not.

There are pros and cons to allowing governors line item veto power. Fortunately, the provisions for the pregnancy associated mortality review board, and my organ donation awareness language passed on other bills that the governor did sign into law.

on price limits during the event, by visiting the Missouri Department of Revenue’s tax holiday information page.

In addition, some cities, counties and special districts have chosen to eliminate local sales and use taxes during the holiday.

The Department of Revenue has compiled a list of the effective sales and use tax rates for each county during the tax holiday, which you can find on the information page linked above.

If you are planning on taking advantage of the tax holiday, be sure to check the effective rate for your area.

If you have any questions regarding the sales tax holiday that are not answered on the Department of Revenue’s information page, you can contact department staff by email at salesuse@ dor.mo.gov.

Sales Tax Holiday

Every year, Missouri administers a sales tax holiday during the back-to-school season. This year, the tax holiday starts at the beginning of the day on Friday, Aug. 2, and runs until the end of the day on Sunday, Aug. 4.

I encourage anyone purchasing school supplies, whether as a student, parent or teacher, to take full advantage of this event.

During the holiday, state sales tax — currently set at 4.225% — will not be collected on certain education-related purchases, including clothing, personal computers and other school supplies, although sales tax will still be collected on other items.

Section 144.049 of the Missouri Revised Statutes lists the specific products that are eligible for the tax holiday. You can view this list, as well as information

Brothers missing, now feared dead 2016, Nelson was sentenced to two years in prison for selling more than 600 head of cattle that didn’t belong to him.

Nelson had pleaded guilty to conducting a cattle fraud scheme that “resulted in losses of more than $262,000 to his victims,” including the USDA Farm Service Agency, Cyclone Cattle Company and individual victims, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Western District of Missouri.

The brothers from Wiscon-

Nelson was released from prison in March, 2018, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

No one was wary about the brothers until their flight from Kansas City arrived at Milwaukee. It was discovered then that the brothers never got on the plane.

Breastfeeding Month is August

Pattonsburg man hurt in crash

By Caitlin Roberts, Breastfeeding Peer Counselor, Daviess County Health Department

August is National Breastfeeding Month.

It’s 2019 — it’s time for us to step up and be supportive and encouraging of breastfeeding.

It has been discovered that our ancestors breastfed for up to six years.

And today people get grief over breastfeeding over six months.

It’s Anna Barlow time to educate and empower.

Breastfeeding is not only beneficial for baby — by reducing their risks for ear infections, asthma, and SIDS among many other things — it’s also beneficial for mama — reducing her risk of cancer and helping her recover from childbirth faster.

Breastfeeding is so important, but it’s also a lot of work, and it takes support and encouragement from those close to us to be able to make it work. So educate yourself on breastfeeding and step up and be the support and encouragement a new mama needs.

This year the theme for National Breastfeeding month is: “Empower Parents * Enable Breastfeeding.” Such an important statement. Support and encourage healthier babies and healthier futures.

Gallatin FFA Chapter will help pack 100,000 meals The Gallatin FFA Chapter will be participating in the Missouri FFA Food Insecurity Day, Tuesday, Aug. 13, at the Missouri State Fair. Gallatin FFA Chapter members will join 750 FFA members and agricultural leaders from around the state to spend the day packing more than 100,000 meals to feed Missouri children and families in need.

“The last line of the FFA motto states ‘Living to Serve.’ zOne way we do this is through FFA Food Insecurity Service Day at the Missouri State Fair,” said Brenden Kleiboeker, Missouri State FFA president. “In its third year, the day provides a way for students to see their service in action as they pack more than 100,000 meals for food insecure children in our state.”

The FFA Food Insecurity Service Day is a component of the 2019 Drive to Feed Kids

Gallatin FFA receives grant of $3000 for Backpack Buddies

The Gallatin FFA Chapter received word this week that they were the recipients of a yearlong Living to Serve Grant.

Living to Serve Grants provide an opportunity for FFA chapters to “seek funding to support various types of service projects through a competitive application process.”

Applicants must identify a community need that falls within one of four focus areas: community safety; hunger, health and nutrition; environmental responsibility; or community engagement.

The chapter applied for the $3,000 grant to help provide additional funding for the Backpack Buddies program.

campaign, which focuses on kids feeding kids. Missouri Farmers Care, in partnership with Brownfield Ag News, Bayer, Missouri State Fair, Missouri Department of Agriculture and Missouri FFA Association, have again banded together to address the alarming statistic that one in five Missouri children regularly face hunger. The goal is to fill the void by securing funds and food which will provide nourishment for food insecure Missouri youth.

“We continue to see food insecurity increase in rural areas,” said Gary Marshall, Missouri Farmers Care chairman.

“Through the Drive to Feed Kids, we have the opportunity to raise awareness, while showcasing the tremendous work of farmers and ranchers who leverage science, technology, their expertise and natural resources to provide food for a growing world.”

In addition to FFA Food Insecurity Service Day, Aug. 13 is Missouri Farmers Care Food Drive Tuesday at the Missouri State Fair. Fairgoers can participate by bringing two or more canned food items to receive discounted fair admission.

Missouri Farmers Care encourages companies and individuals to support their local FFA chapter in this mission. If you would like to partner with MFC to benefit the Drive to Feed Kids, contact Ashley McCarty, MFC executive director, at ashley@mofarmerscare.com. Individual donations can be made at http://mofarmerscare.com/ drive or by texting “Drive2” to 44321. All proceeds will be dedicated to Feeding Missouri’s network of food banks which work across the state to alleviate childhood hunger.

General Information GALLATIN R-V SCHEDULE - All Three Buildings School begins at 8:00a.m. and will dismiss at 3:00p.m. SPECIAL NOTE-Students should not arrive at school before 7:40a.m. They are not supervised prior to 7:40a.m.

SCHOOL LUNCHES Lunches will be served to all children K-12 Wednesday, August 21, K-5 students will pay $2.70. 6-12 students will pay $3.00. All extra milk will cost 30 cents per carton. Adult lunches are $3. (These prices subject to change during school year.) Students will be assigned a lunch account number and are encouraged to keep their lunch account to date.

We do operate a high school breakfast program. All students who quality for free lunches and reduced price lunches are urged to take advantage of this program. The reduced price breakfast will cost 30 cents. All regular students who qualify neither for free nor reduced breakfast may eat breakfast by paying full price of $1.50 for grades K-5 and $1.25 for grades 6-12.

We also urge all those of low income status to apply for free or reduced price lunches. The cost for those who qualify for reduced price lunches will be 40 cents per lunch. Forms to apply may be picked up at the school offices.

School starts Aug. 21 at Gallatin R-5

TRANSPORTATION Bus time schedules and routes will be similar to last year with some minor adjustments. We will try to notify parents if their child is to ride a different bus than last year. Your child riding the bus allows the district to receive funds from the state, and if they do not ride, no state aid is received. It is very helpful if parents put their children on the bus the first day of school as this allows a more accurate establishment of route and load.

Town buses will not make any stops west of line running north and south on Water Street. Our last pickups west of Highway 13 will be at the corners of Ogden and Water; Richardson and Water, Mill and Water, Johnson and Water, Van Buren and Water. We will not be transporting in Sullenger Addition.

Students west of Water Street are expected to walk to school; except, students may walk back one block to Water street to get on the bust if they are within one block west of Water Street. Students living on the street of Gallatin Estates will be transported.

If you change address, please contact the office.

Elementary Attendance Guidelines: School Hours: 8:00a.m. to 3:00p.m.

School doors open at 7:40a.m. Students should plan to arrive after 7:40a.m.

Excessive absences will be defined as four or more full days during a semester, or six tardies per semester.

TRANSPORTATION GUIDELINES All students will be required to have notification to ride a bus different from their usual transportation. This applies to parties rides to baby sitters, scouts, etc.

All changes in daily transportation must be arranged with the office before 2:00p.m. will not be possible unless it is considered an emergency situation. All emergency situations will be determined by the building secretary or the building administrator.

GHS Attendance Policy

Mandatory Attendance; Students are required by law to attend school until their 17th birthday.

Any student who is under the age of 17 years and is not attending school on a regular basis is in violation of this law.

Parents are legally responsible for their child’s attendance.

The Division of Family Services and other government agencies will be contacted if a child has an excessive number of absences.

Regular attendance is an important part of education.

Only by attending classes can a student receive the full benefit of instruction. Class participation is one of the areas of student performance used to determine grades. Students are expected to attend all classes every day. Families are urged to schedule vacations and appointments for their students when school is not in session. Parents can have a profound impact on student attendance by leaving absolutely no doubt that the student is expected to be in school.

Note: Students are considered to be TARDY when they are not in class when the bell rings.

1. Students are allowed to be absent the equivalent of four school days (or 27.2 hours) during a semester. Parental discretion is advised in the use of these absences. A note from home or a phone call from the parent is required for these absences to be excused.

2. Each absence after the fourth day (whether it be one class period or an entire day) is automatically unexcused unless the student presents verification from a doctor, dentist, or the school nurse. Court appearances, funerals and extensive circumstances may also be excused by the principal.

Documentation must be delivered to the school office with 48 hours of the student’s return to school.

3. For excused absences, students are responsible to make up all work that is missed. This work will be made up according to a schedule agreed upon with the individual teacher. Two days for each day absent is recommended.

Teachers will cooperate with students who make an effort to make up work missed. A student who does not make up work to the satisfaction of the teacher will receive a grade of zero(O) for the work missed.

4. When a student wishes to earn a credit in classes for an absence that is unexcused, he/she will be required to serve an after-school study hall. These study halls will be arranged through the office. When the student has satisfied the afterschool requirement, teachers may then award credit for the work that was assigned or completed during an unexcused absence. If the student fails to attend the scheduled after school session, any grade of zero (O) cannot be changed.

5. A student who serves as a Teacher’s Assistant (T.A.) or a Student as Tutor (S.A.T.) and who accumulates more than two unexcused absences during the class time may be reassigned to a different class at the end of the semester.

6. A student must attend school the day before any scheduled field trips, school visits, or competition away from district. Extenuating circumstances will be handled by the high school principal.

7. A student must be present for at least five class periods in order to attend any school function that is held on the same day. Exceptions to this rule may be granted only by prior approval of the building principal.

8. A student who wishes to be excused for a college visit should make prior arrangements through the Guidance Office.

NOTE ABOUT ATTENDANCE FOR A+ STUDENTS: Students who plan to earn A+ Certification should be aware of the separate A+ attendance guideline. For A+ Certification, students must have at least a 95% attendance rate for a four-year period, regardless of whether the absences were excused of unexcused. For additional information, refer to the A+ Handbook.

‘Bill’s Barn’ to be added to community center Everything in working order…Please!

Donations from the community are welcome ...usually.

When you bring your donation to the service center, remember that they need things to be clean. Toys should be complete. Electrical appliances should be in working order. A lot of overflow is sent to Planet Aid. Please don’t bring things that are soiled or broken. The center already spends $90 a month for the dumpster to carry off those things that can’t be used.

“Today I sorted three bags and was not able to save anything,” Karen says. “The boxes of stuff not used would fill the dumpster. If it’s broken, cracked or dirty, please don’t bring it to us. Shoes that are well worn … we can’t give them away.”

Karen says the service center appreciates those who shop there. People come from all over the area, Bethany, Chillicothe, Cameron, Trenton, Hamilton, and all of Daviess County. The money made from the Thrift Shop is used for upkeep, and excess is returned to those in need in the local community.

A website for the Daviess County Food Bank is in the works and should be accessible soon. You’ll be able to see if the Center is open or closed and also check out any special produce available.

“We are here to help people,” Karen says.

K

aren Reed is now carrying on the work which she and her late husband, Bill Reed, and a group of faithful volunteers began many years ago.

“We never dreamed it would be this big,” she says.

The Reeds have been the directors of the Gallatin Seventh-day Adventist Community Service Center since around 1983 when it was located on West Mill Street in an old two-story house.

In those days it had only a handful of volunteers.

The new service center was built in the spring of 1997.

“We never thought it would happen,” Karen says. “But God blessed the work and, one step at a time, it grew.”

A few steps over time In 1979 the first addition to the church was completed — a 40x110 foot building.

“We thought that would be plenty of room, but very soon we knew it wouldn’t be enough. Marie Toney, then director of the Green Hills Community Action Agency, asked us to take over distribution of the commodities for Daviess County. We made it work, until the loan of the first building was paid off.”

In 2007, the building that now houses the Daviess County Food Bank was added. That building was filled in a short time. A walk-in freezer and a walk-in refrigerator were added. Those, too, were filled in a short time.

In 2011, the house on South Willow was purchased, across the street from the new food bank.

“We call it our apartment,” says Karen. “We don’t spend much time there.”

More space needed!

In 2013 a storage barn was built onto the food bank building. Now more space is needed, and a new building is planned.

“Bill’s Barn,” in honor of Bill Reed who passed away this past February, will be built in his memory in one area of the Clay Street parking lot. The lot has been surveyed and the city has given its okay. Groundwork will begin in August. Jamesport Builders will begin construction on Sept. 7, and the 32x24 building will be an extension of the thrift shop.

“It will also be a man’s cave with larger items, furniture, etc.,” says Karen. “We needed the space. We The late Bill Reed were crowding out the dining hall.”

A plaque will designate the building in memory of Bill Reed, director of the Daviess County Food Bank from 1999 to 2019. It will be built with donations from Bill’s memorial fund, to start, along with other funds from other sources.

Good support Seventh-day Adventist gives away thousands of free clothing items and thousands of pounds of food. Last year over 30,000 articles of clothing were given away, not counting bedding, shoes, miscellaneous items and books.

There’s somebody there six days a week taking care of

Karen Reed and Cyndi Jones all of those donations. Food is picked up by volunteers, including a load from Wal-Mart every Monday which must be weighed. Shipments from Second Harvest and WalMart arrive on the third Monday of each month.

Second Harvest out of St. Joseph gives the center good support. Recently, the center asked for 1,500 pounds of food and wound up with 2,500 pounds for 16 cents a pound. A pretty good deal!

In the first quarter of this year, the food bank received 2,165 pounds of food. The center received 15,991 pounds through the Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) and 7,700 pounds through the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP). Donated food amounted to 4,787 pounds.

All food has to be inspected to check expiration dates, weighed, sorted, and put away.

Organized ...and busy!

The service center is a non-profit organization run by volunteers who work for free.

“We were fortunate to have a volunteer staff of around 30 at one time,” Karen says. “Of course, they didn’t all work at the same time, but had shifts doing the work that needed to be taken care of.”

It’s a busy place. The Seventh-day Community Service Center is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. every Wednesday. There are two entrances. The Daviess County Food Bank is on Willow Street. The Thrift Shop is on Clay Street.

The service center needs a male volunteer who can work Tuesdays and Thursdays. “I depend on the men for things I can’t do,” Karen says, “like lifting big pallets of food.”

She needs to train a backup cashier who will work only on Wednesdays.

“I want to thank our volunteers,” she says.

“They’re a great crew that I couldn’t do without.”

If you would like to volunteer, give Karen a call at 663-2478.

There are many denominations represented in the volunteer staff, Nazarene, Methodist, Christian, LDS, Baptist, Adventist, and nondenominational.

“Volunteering here is good therapy,” Karen says. “Funny things happen.”

None of the volunteers gets a paycheck.

“Our paycheck will come later.”

Everybody misses Bill.

“Bill Reed lived over here at the Service Center,” Karen says.

Karen was prepared to be a widow. Bill’s passing was not a shock. He had heart problems for a year and a half.

He needed a new heart valve but he chose to just be careful and watch for signs that made him know that he needed help.

Their children planned a 10-day cruise to Panama for them earlier this year. They had lived in Panama 50 years ago; it was their home while Bill was in the military. Bill broke his arm taking stuff to Planet Aid just before the cruise. Karen thinks he fainted. He’d been having little spells of passing out because his heart just wasn’t pumping enough blood.

They came back from their vacation on Jan. 18. On Jan. 20 Bill was in the hospital.

“The hospitals at Cameron and then North Kansas City were a blessing all the way,” Karen says. “They tried everything. Bill didn’t want any more surgeries.”

Bill told Karen, “Let’s go home. I want to have a party.”

“We had a wonderful time with our children and grandchildren and nieces,” says Karen. He was able to come home for five days before he died on Feb. 3. Karen says she appreciates the Christian Church for allowing them to use their sanctuary for the services.

“He had a wonderful time at home,” Karen says. “He kept his mind and sense of humor up until the end.”

Now, Karen and her niece, Cyndi Jones, along with the staff of volunteers will continue to serve Daviess County with the food bank program and the thrift shop.

All money raised by the thrift shop is returned to the community for emergencies.

“If you want to help with Bill’s Barn, leave a little gift for Bill with the cashiers on Wednesday,” says Karen.

“Thank you and God bless us all.”

Volunteers Jake Hogan, Karen Walker and Bill Latimer
