– OBITUARIES –

† FURMAN David A. Furman, 72, of Ionia, MI passed away June 1, 2020, surrounded by his loving wife, Jen (Jeanette), and beloved daughters, Natalie and Emily, following a courageous 6-year battle with kidney cancer (RCC). He was born to Ralph and Anita (Mosier) Furman on November 27, 1947. He attended Lyons-Muir schools and Ionia High School. Shortly after graduation in 1966 David joined the U.S. Army and was stationed in Germany during the Vietnam Era. After his military service, David returned home to Muir to work at his father’s business, Muir Radio & TV. Members of the Furman family were avid card players. It was in a conspiracy of fondness by his parents and Jen’s aunt and uncle, that he met his future wife. They arranged for the two to be partners in a wild and history changing card game of Pinochle. Had Jen not agreed to take a ride in his Yellow Dodge Demon 440 and David not let her drive his precious car, their union in marriage may not have happened. In December of 1973, David married Jeanette Boulanger of Crystal Falls, MI Later, he began working for the newly formed American Bumper. He was a dedicated and dependable employee, being promoted to Maintenance Manager. While working at American Bumper he dealt with many vendors who soon realized that he had a penchant for ball caps. He was very proud of that collection of over 300 caps. He retired in 1999. Unable to just sit back and enjoy his retirement years, he began making himself available as a handyman who would do those little jobs others didn’t have time to do. In addition, he remodeled parts of his own home. He liked to say that he was handy, handsome, helpful… and humble. He loved having family gatherings at his home and one could count on a fantastic and filling meal that always included dessert. Most requested were his prime rib, cherry pie, and peanut butter cookies. During vacations from the factory and in retirement, he enjoyed spending family time going on camping and fishing trips to the Upper Peninsula, playing golf, and collecting John Deere memorabilia. When David and Jen were both retired, they hauled their 5th wheel trailer to Florida to escape the cold winters. They found a most suitable winter home at Travelers Rest Resort near Dade City, FL. There they played golf and became avid Bridge players. David also earned the nickname of “Cookie Man” with his delicious peanut butter cookies that he baked on a weekly basis and distributed to his many friends in the park. He attended the First Presbyterian Church of Ionia, was a member of Eastern Star and a life member of Free and Accepted Masons. David was the eldest of 6 children. He was preceded in death by his parents and a sister, Marcia Carrizales. He leaves behind his wife of 46 years, Jeanette, his daughters, Natalie (Dan) Bennett of Grandville, MI and Emily Furman of Belding MI, and four beautiful grandchildren: Marin, Alec, Isla and Alyson; his sisters, Diane (Bill) Bennett, Dona Gillson, Fern (Doug) Feehan and his brother, Doug (Tina) Furman. A visitation for David will take place on Thursday, June 18, 2020 from 2-4 p.m. at Applewood Farms, 579 E. Parmeter Road, Ionia, MI 48846. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to: First Presbyterian Church of Ionia, MI or to Spectrum Health Foundation “Attention: Palliative Care”. Arrangements are entrusted to Lehman Funeral Homes. Online condolences may be made at www.lehmanfuneralhomes.com.

Sparrow Ionia Hospital, Ionia County Health Department to hold one-day COVID-19 testing event IONIA, MI – Sparrow Ionia Hospital and the Ionia County Health Department are combining to offer COVID-19 nasal swab testing at a special oneday event. The testing will be held from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 17, at the Ionia County Health Department, 175 E. Adams St., Ionia, and addresses the need for increased testing in the county. Patients will be able to attend without having a physician’s order in advance. No money will be collected on-site. Sparrow will bill patients later and has options in place for those who cannot afford the test. A nasal swab (or PCR) test determines whether or not you have an active COVID-19 infection at the time the sample is collected. It’s a molecular test that is reviewed at Sparrow Laboratories and results are usually available within 48 hours.

“Sparrow Ionia Hospital has been working collaboratively with the Ionia County Health Department to ensure the health and safety of our community,” said Linda Reetz, Sparrow Ionia president. “COVID-19 nasal swab testing is another means of increasing awareness and understanding of this outbreak. Again, the goal is to protect the community we serve as our county and state begin to reintroduce people back into the workforce.” Said Ionia County Health Officer Ken Bowen: “One of the most effective ways to contain any epidemic is widespread testing. We encourage anyone who has symptoms, who may have been exposed, or who will be returning to work to get tested.” For more information, call the Ionia County Health Department at 616.527.5341 or go to https://ioniacounty. org/health/health-department/

Portland District Library Lines

The PDL staff was delighted to hear that the governor signed an executive order allowing libraries to reopen, and we are all so excited to get back to serving the community. However, we want to minimize the risk of infection to both staff and patrons, so we are planning a phased reopening to allow us time to get our safety measures in place. We resumed curbside pickup on June 8, and will continue that at least through the end of the year for those patrons who still wish to avoid a lot of contact. Visit our website (pdl.miclibrary. org) or call us (517-647-6981) to request books for pickup. We’re still figuring out a date for allowing patrons back into the building, but we’re hoping that by June 22 we’ll be ready for that next step. Our world has changed, though, and there will be some restrictions in place to keep everyone safe until we’re out of danger from COVID-19. Please feel free to email our director, Cory Grimminck, at cgrimminck@portlandmilibrary. com if you have any questions about these changes, or anything else that’s on your mind. CHILDREN’S AND TEEN We are going to take a minute to revisit National Reading Month. Back in March, right as social distancing was new to all of us, the library offered two reading challenges for all ages; a bingo board and a bookshelf. Don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten about this contest! We are asking that all participating patrons turn in their forms by Friday, June 19th at 5:00 pm to our outside drop box. Winners will be drawn and contacted on Monday, June 22nd. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to win a prize for all the reading you did during the Stayat-Home period. Blank forms can be found on our Facebook page and requested for pickup during our curbside pickup times. Call the library at 517-647-6981 ext 3. with questions. Along with welcoming our staff back and preparing for all the changes in our building, we are getting ready to launch this year's Summer Reading Program, "Imagine Your Story". Although this year's program will look slightly different than in the past, there will still be something for everyone to enjoy. Stay tuned for more information later this week on our reading program and how to have fun at the Portland District Library this summer!

Take a world cuisine dining tour close to home Staycations can be perfect ways to rest and recharge without having to travel far from home. Staycations tend to be affordable ways to spend time together for those who perhaps do not have the budget to travel domestically or internationally, or those who simply prefer the convenience of remaining nearby. A break from meal planning and preparation is part of the allure of traditional vacations. But just because you're choosing a staycation does not mean that you need to forgo the respite from cooking nightly meals. In fact,

staycations can be ideal times to explore the various dining opportunities your local community offers - even providing a way to "tour the world" through global cuisine. Many small towns and cities boast various types of restaurants offering a wide array of foods from countries around the world. The following are tips for maximizing your staycation dining experience. · UTILIZE TECHNOLOGY. Let technology work for you when looking for restaurants.

ats can narrow down options to restaurants touted by foodies who prefer local businesses rather than chain restaurants. Rely on other apps for recommendations on places to dine, such as Yelp, Foursquare, OpenTable, LocalEats, and Zagat. · PLOT YOUR MAP. Make a list of the types of cuisines you want to sample based on regions of the world and match them to nearby recommended restaurants. Your culinary tour can be narrowed down to a specific geographical region, such as Germany, or broadened depending on the restaurants in the area. · LEARN ABOUT THE CULTURE.

This brief history lesson also may offer insight into particular traditions behind food preparation methods. · USE THEIR EXPERTISE. Ask the chef or restaurant staff to make their recommendations on what you should try for authentic

dishes. Many restaurants are anxious to share information and put together a tasting menu, even if it isn't on the main menu. · SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES. An added benefit of this hometown global cuisine
