100 years of Football CALEB SUGGS HARTSELLE ENQUIRER

“Somewhere along the way, someone made it important that when you put on the red jersey, you play above and beyond what you’re capable of.”

T

he words of Hartselle High School football radio announcer Bob Sittason couldn’t ring more true for the Hartselle program. This year, Hartselle is celebrating their 100th year of playing football, and as everyone looks back on the history of the program, it is filled with teams and players that defy the odds. Hartselle is a program that is rich in tradition and prides itself on winning when they’re not supposed to. It is also filled with many people who are proud to have been a part of the program for many years. Among those are Bob Sittason, radio announcer for 27 years, Clif

Knight who covered Hartselle for 35 years and Jonathan Bragwell who has been the P.A. announcer since 2002.

While the current Hartselle Tigers take much pride in their Tiger mascot, it isn’t how Hartselle got it’s start. “Glenn Thompson loves to tell the story how Hartselle used to be the Wolverines when they started,” Sittason said. “They changed it because they had the red and white of Alabama so they became to the Tigers to balance it out--at least that’s the story anyway.” While the early years featured some good teams, it was in the 1960s under head Coach J.P. Cain, who the current Tiger stadium

is named after, when Hartselle started to become the program they are today. Former Hartselle Enquirer writer Clif Knight was on hand to see the rise of the program. “When I started, Hartselle had been having a hard time beating the bigger schools of Decatur and Cullman,” Knight said. “Then in 1965, Hartselle beat Decatur for the first time in 29 years and it changed everything. After that, a lot of people took interest in the program and that’s how the stadium was built and the Quarterback Club was created.” After J.P Cain stepped down as coach, the Tigers brought in Bucky Pitts who helped elevate the Tigers’ game to a

new level. “Bucky brought in a veer offense and with that they were able to develop a strong offensive attack,” Knight said. “They consistently had winning records and other schools starting looking at Hartselle as a team that will fight you from start to finish.”

When Pitts left, the Tigers promoted Don Woods to head coach.

Under Woods, the Tigers made two appearances in the state finals, and although they didn’t win, they made a huge statement for the program. After Woods came Mike Smith. “Hartselle struggled when Mike first got there because they were so young, but they got better and in his last year they went all the way to the semis.” Sittason said. “We’ve only had four coaches since coach J.P. Cain so I think it says a lot about the men that have been hired.”

The next coach hired is the current head coach Bob Godsey. Under Godsey, the Tigers reached new heights for the program, heights that P.A. announcer Jonathan Bragwell has seen.

“The 2006 team was one of the greatest teams Hartselle ever had I think.

The top four teams in Hartselle’s region were the four teams that were left at the end of the year in North Alabama,” Bragwell said. “I’ll never forget the game against Athens in the playoffs. Athens won on a tipped pass similar to the Prayer in Jordan Hare. “But ever since that game, Hartselle hasn’t lost to Athens.” It was under Godsey that the Tigers achieved one of the biggest wins in program history by defeating Russellville in 2008 for the first time in over 20 years, similar to the way they defeated Decatur in 1965. “I remember being at that game. It was such a huge win,” Bragwell said. “Hartselle could never seem to get past Russellville but they finally got over the hump.” Once Russellville was out of the way, Godsey took Hartselle to the State Championship in 2011 while doing it in true Hartselle fashion. “I remember thinking before the year Hartselle Living • 7

8 • Hartselle Living

that we lost so much, but Godsey had them ready to play each game and they just went through and defied every odd,” Bragwell said.

Sittason said the road to State led them to a meeting with Vigor who had several Division One players.

“The assumption was that Vigor had the State Championship won when they beat Jamiess Winston and Hueytown the week before. At least that’s what the people in South Alabama thought,” he said. “But it didn’t matter what players Vigor had, they couldn’t overcome the discipline of Hartselle.”

Since that State Championship, Hartselle continued to make the playoffs every year and are now enjoying their best season since 2011. What’s more is that the Tigers are doing it the way they’ve always done it.

“We’re not the biggest or the fastest, but we work the hardest, are the most disciplined and we have the best community support in Alabama,” Sittason said.

Vaughan is vital for senior care LAUREN THORNTON TOBIN HARTSELLE ENQUIRER

A

s parents and grandparents age, children and grandchildren are running into similar problems. They need to know when it’s time to find their parents around-the-clock care and if that care should take place at home or in a facility. Some may think they need a road map to show them where to go and what help is available along the way.

That’s where senior real estate specialist and certified senior advisor Tori Vaughan comes in. She is the tour guide, if not the vehicle itself, that helps guide people through the process of moving their parents completely or bringing specialized care into their homes.

“What happens usually is that the home is the biggest asset and it’s sold to cover expenses for long-term care,” said Vaughan. “I come in and help the family navigate some of those decisions and help them find solutions, whether it’s selling the house or not.”

Before real estate, Vaughan worked in management and administrative positions in assisted living and nursing homes. Her 29 years of experience and the situations she encountered are the

10 • Hartselle Living

Realtor and Senior Care Advisor Tori Vaughan in front of one of her client’s homes

reasons she said she decided to open Your Senior Move Partner, a specialized real estate service.

“It’s only because of my background that I’m familiar with the hurdles they face,” she said. “That’s why I opened my company because I realized they needed more…a lot more than what’s currently offered.”

As a realtor, Vaughan is responsible for listing and selling homes, but as a Senior Move Partner, she consults families to find out what their major needs are.

If a family member is able to stay at home but needs around the clock care, Vaughan provides them with resources pertaining to care givers who fit their specific needs.

One major problem Vaughan said she runs into is that there is little to no knowledge of how much help is out there for seniors and families tend to wait until their mother or father is

placed in a facility to figure out how to pay for it.

“I want to get to know these families before panic mode sets in,” Vaughn said, explaining that the more time a family has to prepare, the easier a transition is. “If they come to me beforehand, then I can guide them and put them with an attorney or elder care lawyer who helps them work with their assets so they lose the least amount of money when the time comes instead of losing it all to pay for care.”

On the real estate side of business, Vaughan works to make sure there are no hidden or surprise penalties and fees a family may have to deal with in the case that their loved one does go to a healthcare facility.

“There are all kinds of penalties that people aren’t aware of, and if things aren’t done correctly now, they will still be responsible for those things for years to come,” she said.

Typically Vaughan is connected to a family through a healthcare provider that may supply little to no information about how to smoothly move a loved one from their home to a facility.

One situation in particular is a case Vaughan said she’s proud to talk to about.

“The family was under a misunderstanding about whether or not a local facility could accept their aunt because of a medication she took, and they were panicked because they thought they had to send her to Tennessee,” she said.

After Vaughan met with them and learned more about their situation, she was able to uncover a local community for the loved one. “There are all kinds of situations like that where people don’t know there is someone here,” she said.

Because Vaughan works so closely with those in the healthcare field, Hartselle Living • 11

she makes it a point to hold Lunch and Learns at various assisted living homes, but she’s aiming for a more direct approach where families reach out on their own.

“There are all these things that can be done ahead of time to avoid a crisis decision,” she said. “You need a specialist because there are so many things involved, particularly if you’re in crisis mode.”

Whenever a family comes to consult with Vaughan, as she listens to them, she said she begins filling out a flow chart in her head.

A family from Hartselle reached out to Vaughan and told her they weren’t interested in listing their parent’s home at the time, but they did need her help in other areas of the transition process.

Eventually they decided to sell the home rather than maintain and it and Vaughan was already there to help.

“I worked with the family for two years,” she said. “There have been a lot of hurdles that this family had to

12 • Hartselle Living

go through and we did our best to help them.”

At the end of the day, Vaughan’s professional title is ‘Realtor,’ but she said she makes it a point to ensure that her client receives the best care and is happy with where they live.

“The bottom line is yes I’m a realtor, but there are some instances where people don’t need to sell their home, and it’s my job…to let them know if I see another way,” she said. “If I think they’re going to be happiest in the home and most cared for in the home, I’m going to help them find a way and a resource they can use to help that happen.”

Almost like a road map, “a way from where you are to where you want to be.”

The most of what I do is field phone calls and talk to families and try to match them with those resources.

Do they need banking advice, legal advice, VA assistance? What is it that they need and where do they want to be?

Seven times out of 10, I eventually list the home. I may not list it today because it might not be in the senior’s best interest.

We’re going to have so many millions of senior citizens who need extra services. We have about 15 more years to amp up our services. I don’t mean just what I do, I mean everyone who serves seniors in every way need to amp up their services to take care of these people. Financial services, a lot are on limited income and we need to make sure we have cars available to them, healthcare, food. We have a long way to go.

I have to respect that and have some compassion for that. I think I’m the most useful for busy people and I do have a lot of phone calls from people who live out of town. Get a lot of calls around Thanksgiving and holidays because they haven’t seen their older family members after not seeing members and realize that something has to happen for the health of the older members.

Lizzy Elmore, nurse practitioner, joins Dr. Kenneth Mashburn in caring for patients at the Family Health of Hartselle.

Welcome Home

Hartselle native and nurse practitioner comes home LAUREN THORNTON TOBIN HARTSELLE ENQUIRER

P

atients at Family Health of Hartselle may notice a new face enter the exam rooms at the end of November.

Hartselle native and nurse practitioner Lizzy Elmore, 26, said she’s happy to start practicing in her home town after working in Ardmore for two-and-a-half years.

She said she is ready to start providing what she hopes will be described as quality care.

“I always wanted to serve the community I grew up in and give back,” she said.

“I want to provide services and establish relationships with patients rather than just being their healthcare provider.”

Elmore graduated from Hartselle High School in 2008 before getting her nursing degree at the University of Alabama Huntsville in 2012. From there, she attended Samford University where she earned

her master’s degree in nursing with a concentration in family nurse practitioner in 2014.

Dr. Kenneth Mashburn at FHH said he thinks Elmore will do more than simply provide patients with great care.

“She puts herself into positions of caring for people and has more of a personal relationship with patients,” he said. “She’s the essence of family practice.”

Mashburn said Elmore

may appeal to patients differently than he can.

“She’s another option for people in Hartselle,” he said.

“Some women and children might feel more comfortable with a female provider.”

Because Elmore grew up and lives in the area Mashburn said she is able to give the clinic a unique perspective.

“I’ve been here for almost 20 years and don’t have the same perspective as she and her family,” he said.

Elmore’s biggest joy as healthcare provider comes from seeing her patients get better because of her treatment.

“I most enjoy seeing patients’ lives improve and helping them in a way they can’t help themselves,” she said.

Adding another set of hands on deck helps FHH nurses and patients both, Mashburn said.

“She will most definitely provide more access day in and day out,” he said. “We can see people more quickly.

Mashburn said everyone working at the clinic tries to help as many people as they can as quickly as they can, but Elmore will make a noticeable difference.

“Anything we can do to make it more convenient for patients is good for me,” he said.

With a town such as Hartselle, the chances of Elmore treating someone she knows are good. She said she is excited to treat those she knows, but she’s nervous about it too.

“I want to live up to expectations; I’m more excited than I am nervous,” she said, adding that this gives her a way to be more involved in their lives.

When Elmore isn’t seeing patients, she is spending time outside with her high-schoolsweetheart turned husband John and their chocolate Labrador, Winston.

The Elmores’ attend Central Baptist Church in Decatur where Lizzy sings in the choir.

“My husband and I are really involved in church and we love it,” she said.

Elmore’s first day in Hartselle is Nov. 28.

FOOD

Favorite Appetizers Ham Noodle Casserole

CosmopolitanCornbread.com Ham Noodle Casserole is a delicious and homey meal your family will love. This dish is also a great one to make with some left over ham that you often have during the holiday season.

• ½ c dry bread crumbs (1 slice of toasted bread) • 1 package (12 oz) egg noodles • 3 Tb unsalted butter, divided • 2 Tb all-purpose flour • 2 c milk • ½ tsp salt • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper • 1 tsp dry parsley • 6 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated • 1 c frozen peas • 2 c cooked, diced ham 1. To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

2. Start cooking a package of egg noodles according to package directions. I used the wide noodles, but you can use whichever you prefer.

3. While those cook, you’ll make some bread crumbs. Toast a piece of bread, then pulse it in your food processor a couple times until you have fine bread crumbs. Set that aside for now.

4. In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and let it cook for just a minute until it is bubbly.

5. Add in the milk, black pepper, salt & parsley.

6. Bring this to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring continually.

7. When the noodles are done cooking, strain them with a colander, and set them aside for a moment.

8. When your sauce comes to a boil and thickens, add in the shredded cheddar cheese (I used a sharp white cheddar). Stir this in until it is melted.

9. In a heat-safe bowl (or simply use the pot you cooked the noodles in, rather than dirtying another dish) combine the noodles and sauce, along with the frozen peas and diced, cooked ham. Stir it all together.

10. Pour the mixture into a baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. You can use a 2 quart casserole dish if you like. I chose to use a large cast iron skillet.

11. Now in another dish combine the bread crumbs that you made, with a tablespoon of melted butter. Stir those together.

12. Sprinkle the buttered crumbs all over the top of the casserole. Cover your baking dish with foil, and bake for 15 minutes.

Uncover the dish and continue to bake for another 10 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly.

13. Enjoy this comforting meal.

Asparagus Side Dish

Combine the asparagus and water in a 10 inch skillet and place over medium heat; cover. Allow the asparagus to steam until tender, about 10 minutes; drain.

Reduce heat to low and return the skillet to the heat. Drizzle olive oil over the asparagus; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Add the grape tomatoes to the skillet and replace the lid. Allow to sit covered until the cheese melts and the tomatoes are slightly steamed, about 2 minutes.

Recipe By: CariCooks

“This a deliciously easy way to prepare asparagus. Sometimes I add julienned carrots and steam them together. It all looks very pretty with the colors.”

1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed 2/3 cup water 1/4 cup olive oil 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 10 grape tomatoes, halved

13. Beat in vanilla.

14. Gently stir banana mixture into cream cheese mixture.

16. Bake 45 to 55 minute or until center is almost set.

17. Remove cheese cake from oven and run a knife around edge of cheesecake to loosen.

Basil Chicken with Grilled Kale and Heirloom Tomatoes Oprah.com

Basil chicken is nicely complemented by the deep, lush taste of kale, grilled and slightly charred. If you have ripe heirloom tomatoes, stick to the basics! You’ll do them a disservice if you get overly creative.

This recipe is from Michel Nischan’s Freshfrom-the-Garden Menu.

Servings: Serves 6 • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar • 2 scallions , thinly sliced • 1/2 cup lightly packed fresh basil , chopped, plus whole leaves for garnish • 1 tsp. freshly cracked black peppercorns • 6 halves boneless, skinless chicken breast • Grapeseed oil or canola oil • 3/4 tsp. salt , plus additional for kale • Olive oil cooking spray • 12 large kale leaves , preferably a combination of green and purple • 6 heirloom tomatoes , sliced In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, scallions, chopped basil, and pepper.

Reserve 3 tablespoons marinade. Pour remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts, seal bag, and turn to coat chicken. Place bag in a bowl; refrigerate 1 hour, turning once.

Preheat and oil charcoal or gas grill. Remove chicken from marinade and place on grill rack. Cook chicken over medium heat, brushing with any remaining marinade in the bag and sprinkling with 1/2 teaspoon salt, until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a platter and cover with foil.

Spray both sides of kale leaves with cooking spray. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Grill kale until browned in spots and slightly wilted, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Arrange kale on platter with chicken.

Spread tomatoes over kale. Stir reserved marinade and spoon over tomatoes; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and garnish with basil.

For the Crust: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Stir together the 1-1/2 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers, pecans, and butter until well blended.

3. Press mixture onto bottom of a greased and floured 9-inch springform pan.

4. Stand approximately 17 vanilla wafers around edge of pan (rounded sides against pan), pressing gently into crust to secure.

5. Bake 10 minutes.

6. Place on a wire rack to cool while making the filling.

For the Filling: 7. Combine bananas and lemon juice in a small saucepan.

8. Stir in brown sugar.

PARTING THOUGHTS

Image of surrey racing at the Hartselle Fairgrounds, started in 1912 as the Morgan County Fair Association. There were several festivals and holidays celebrated here before the fair ended in the later 1920’s with the Depression. The CCC Camp in the 1936 and another in 1939 was located on this site. The Fair Association sold the land in 1938. Fairfield Addition of Hartselle was platted on this property in the 1948. That plat included Burch, White, and Brindley Streets, north of the Hartselle Cemetery and east of Main Street North in NW Hartselle today.
