Giannoulias’ Office Accepting John Lewis Youth Leadership Award Nominations The Illinois Secretary of State’s office is accepting applications for the 2024 John Lewis Youth Leadership Award (JLYLA), Secretary Alexi Giannoulias announced. The award celebrates the efforts of young Illinoisans between the ages of 18 to 25 who have made exceptional civic contributions to their communities.

The John Lewis Youth Leadership Award, established by the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS), honors the late Congressman John Lewis’ impact and extraordinary accomplishments throughout his career. Lewis advocated for civil and voting rights and consistently encouraged young people to actively participate in the democratic process. In his youth, Lewis was integral to the Civil Rights Movement as chairman of the Student Nonviolence Coordinating Committee (SNCC), one of the original 13 Freedom Riders and one of the lead organizers of the March on Washington.

“John Lewis dedicated his life to bringing equality, freedom and justice to everyone and altered the course of history for the better,” Giannoulias said. “In partnership with the National Association of Secretaries of State, I could not be more excited to recognize a young Illinoisan who has been inspired to carry on the mission and legacy of this iconic freedom fighter.”

Dasha Pates, last year’s inaugural recipient, earned the award through her work improving access to legal services in Kane County.

Working with JusticeCorps, she provided disenfranchised residents of Kane County with legal information and procedural guidance at the Kane County Law Library & Self-Help Legal Center.

“Receiving the inaugural John Lewis Youth Leadership Award has been a life-changing experience for me,” Pates said.

The influence of the John Lewis Youth Leadership Award extends far beyond the recipients themselves. The award inspires other young individuals to get involved and make a difference in their communities by acknowledging and celebrating youth activism. It also sends a powerful message that age is not a barrier to creating change and that every voice matters in shaping the future of America.

Any member of the public can nominate a young Illinois leader,

More than $1.6 million in long-term, low-interest disaster loans has been approved by the U.S. Small Business Administration for homeowners and renters to help repair, rebuild or replace disaster-damaged physical property and to cover economic injury for businesses of all sizes and non-profit organizations.

Homeowners and renters with July 13 - 16 storm damage to their home or personal property in the seven designated counties including, Cook, Fulton, Henry, St. Clair, Washington, Will and Winnebago, have until the November 19 deadline to apply for disaster assistance from FEMA and U.S. Small Business

Fighting Payment “Skimming” WOODROW WILCOX On August 26, 2024, I sent a letter to a medical service provider for a client from Crown Point, Indiana. With some editing to protect privacy, here is the letter that I sent about the bill from the medical firm.

You sent a bill to our client and he forwarded it to our office. He asked us to check your bill to him for accuracy. I checked with the client’s Medicare supplement insurance company about your bill. Your bill is false. Here is why.

For Date Of Service (DOS) 04/04/24, the original charge was $637 and you billed a balance of $32.41. But the insurance company sent you that balance on 04/29/24 and the tracking confirmation number is KXXXXXXXXXX. For DOS 04/08/24, the original charge was $527 and you billed a balance of $19.10.

But the insurance company sent you that balance in the same payment as the previous one mentioned.

For DOS 04/11/24, the original charge was $527 and you billed a balance of 0.06 (six cents). But the insurance company sent you a payment of $19.10 on 05/06/24 and the tracking confirmation number is KXXXXXXXXXX. For DOS 04/18/24, the original charge was $527 and you billed a balance of 0.99 (ninety-nine cents).

But the insurance

company sent you a payment of $19.10 on 05/13/24 and the tracking confirmation number is KXXXXXXXXXX. This seems to be a pattern of someone within your billing department “skimming” payments by insurance companies to cause a false bill with a balance for a patient.

“Skimming” is a way to redirect a payment to an account that the skimmer wants to enlarge. That is what I suspect is causing the problem. If you need help finding the money, phone the insurance company at 972-XXX-XXXX. Stop billing our client a false balance.

All the help that I gave this client was FREE OF CHARGE. This insurance agency helps all our clients with such matters without charging anything to demonstrate to our clients that we really do care for them.

If your insurance agent or agency does not give this high level of customer service, why not switch to an insurance agency that does?

This one does.

Note: Woodrow Wilcox is the senior medical bill case worker at Senior Care Insurance Services in Merrillville, Indiana. He has saved clients of that firm over three million dollars by fighting mistakes and fraud in medical billing. Also, Wilcox wrote the book SOLVING MEDICARE PROBLEM$ which can be ordered at book stores or online.

Have you ever felt the urge to say “hi” to someone you don’t know? Maybe you were standing in line at the store or sitting next to someone at the airport. Suddenly, a little voice inside your head said, “Talk to them.” It might feel strange and uncomfortable at first. Talking to a stranger isn’t something we always feel comfortable doing, but one simple word “hi” can break down personal walls. It can ease tension, stress, and let someone know they matter. Sometimes, saying “hi” can open the door to something big like making a new friend or brightening someone’s day.

My husband and I were visiting his aunt in Tennessee. One night, as we returned to our hotel, I felt a nudge to compliment a gentleman about his beautiful dog. That simple comment ended with the three of us having a seven-hour conversation in the hotel lobby. We talked about our faith in God, our family, our careers, and our marriages. That night, we made a new friend, Reverend Paul Gaspar.

Rev Gaspar is an international speaker who helps people understand love through learning acceptance and forgiveness. He and his wife, Elle, travel the country and Canada, sharing their message of love and understanding with others. They speak at churches, prisons, and marriage groups, helping people improve their lives by learning about love and acceptance.

Our conversation that night involved discussing acceptance, forgiveness, love, and God. It was a powerful talk that we’ll never forget.

Sometimes, meeting people randomly can turn into a happy surprise. Maybe you share something in common such as music, a hobby, or a shared belief in faith. Starting a conversation can feel like unwrapping a mystery. You never know where it will lead.

And who knows? That person could become a good friend or someone who has a big impact on your life.

Taking the first step to start a conversation can be scary at first, especially if you’re shy or

introverted. But if you’re kind and open, it can make the other person feel comfortable. Most people enjoy talking to someone nice, especially if they’re in a good mood or need cheering up.

Even, saying something simple like “How’s your day going?” or “Have a blessed day” can brighten someone’s mood. You never know how your words might make a difference.

For example, during our conversation with Reverend Paul, we learned they were waiting for the storm Milton, which was projected to hit their town. By sharing our thoughts and appreciation for God, it brought calm and peace to all of us. Sometimes, just talking can be a great way to help others who might need a little kindness or comfort.

Not everyone is receptive to having a conversation. That’s okay. Some people may be feeling shy, in a hurry, or simply not in the mood to talk. Remember to respect other people. You never know what’s going on in their life. Just being kind and polite goes a long way. If someone doesn’t respond the way you hoped, don’t take it personally. It’s not about you. Remember, your kind gesture still mattered. They might simply be having a difficult day.

Trust your feelings when you feel like you should say “hi”. It might be God speaking to you in a quiet whisper, encouraging you to reach out. Ephesians 4:32 reminds us “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.”

Life can be full of unexpected connections. It might be the first step toward meeting someone important in your life. So, next time you get the urge to talk or comment to a stranger, go for it!

It could lead to a great conversation, making a new friend, or simply making someone’s day a little brighter. The small simple things truly make a big difference in the lives of others and our lives. Y? Why Not! For more on Rev Paul Gaspar’s teaching: www.youtube.com/@rev.paulgaspar5013

Power Smart: Keep Your Lithium-Ion Batteries Safe

By Daniel Anderson, Cy-Fair Fire Department As our reliance on technology grows, so does the prevalence of lithium-ion batteries in devices such as smartphones, tablets, and e-bikes. While these batteries power our daily lives, they also pose a fire risk if not handled properly.

Lithium-ion batteries have a lot of benefits— like their ability to store more energy than traditional batteries of the same weight—but they also have disadvantages. Their ability to store a lot of energy can also be a problem if they catch on fire or explode.

While lithium-ion batteries are normally safe, they can pose a fire risk if they are damaged, not used correctly, improperly charged, or have any design defects. If they do catch on fire, I have seen firsthand how hard they can be to extinguish.

In honor of Fire Prevention Week (October 6-12), here are some essential tips on buying, charging, storing, and using lithium-ion batteries to help prevent fires.

Purchase safely. Always purchase devices certified by a qualified testing laboratory. Make sure batteries, chargers, and other equipment have been tested.

Follow the instructions.

Read the manufacturer’s instructions and always follow them for proper storage, usage, and charging.

Control the temperature. Keep batteries at room temperature whenever possible. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures, as this

$

can increase the risk of overheating and fires.

Store (and charge) batteries away from anything flammable. For an e-bike, charge it in a dry area away from direct sunlight. Please don’t charge your smartphone, tablet, or laptop on your bed as your bedding or pillow could catch fire.

Use the right equipment. Use only the charging cord that came with your device. If it gets lost or damaged, find out from the manufacturer what replacement cord is compatible with your device. Mixing and matching charging cords with your devices can lead to unsafe conditions.

You should also use only the battery that came with your device.

Never overcharge. When your device is fully charged, unplug it from the charger. Don’t leave it charging overnight or all day. Unplugging it when it is finished charging prevents overheating and prolongs the life of your battery.

Finally, stop using a battery immediately if you notice any of the following: leaking, weird noises or odor, color changes, swelling, or if it’s putting out too much heat. Batteries should also be routinely checked for any changes in appearance or leaking.

You don’t need to throw out all your lithiumion battery-powered devices, but you should be aware of the risks. By practicing safe battery usage, residents can minimize the dangers and prevent fires.

Heart Smart RICHARD ZEKVELD “Richard! Your goats are in the garden!” The voice of my mother. I raced outside to find them chomping vigorously on the strawberry patch. Again.

What was their deal?! They had their own enclosure in the corner of the pasture, complete with lots of lush grass, fresh drinking water, a happy little goat house and all the hay and grains they could want. Apparently, it wasn’t good enough. Over time, they chewed their way through the fence and busted out. We fixed the hole. They chewed a new one. The solution? An electric fence.

What happened next was truly a marvel. They could no longer break through the fence. Instead, they got down on the ground, stretched their long necks under the fence, and cropped a perimeter of grass around the outside of their yard. Meanwhile, the lush green grass inside their yard they left untouched.

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

Even when it’s not.

Let’s face it: we’re a lot like goats. No matter how good mine is, someone else’s is better – his car, her career, his resume, her relationships, his lawn, her life. This stirs up discontentment. The culture stokes it even more, saying, “You need it! You deserve it!” The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

Hebrews 13:5b in the Bible says, “Be content with what you have, for [God] has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’” Contentment begins with knowing Christ.

It grows as you know his Father as your Father, as the one who will never forsake you, who will supply your needs and satisfy your heart, who loved you enough to send his Son to die for you. The grass is always greenest inside his fence.

Extinguish the Risk: Fire Extinguisher Know-How

Real Estate Specialists

Real Estate Questions & Answers CATHY & JIM HIGGINS Question: I am going to be 79 years old next month and I would like you to sell my home and find me a Ranch style duplex home.

I have always paid my bills on time, so I believe my credit is good. But I am concerned if I will be able to obtain a 30 year mortgage or is there an age limit from preventing me from buying again?

Answer: Under the Fair Housing Amendments act of 1988 the provision of mortgage financing cannot be denied on the basis of age. Lenders, however, can require that all applicants, regardless of age, meet the usual standards for income and credit needed for a given loan program. There are people in their 70’s, 80’s and perhaps 90’s who can easily qualify for a mortgage based on their finances. The test in such cases is not the calendar, it’s the ability to meet all applicable mortgage requirements.

Congratulations on your decision to find a new home!

Ranch Home!

Question: I’m interested in buying a house that’s being sold directly by an owner. He has asked me to send him an offer. I don’t understand what he wants. Is he requesting a residential purchase agreement or a dollar amount?

Answer: Hold On. STOP. A real estate offer is a complex document which reflects many considerations. For instance, do you have the right to a home inspection satisfactory to you? What kind of title are you getting? Who will hold your deposit?

When is closing? Is your purchase contingent on selling your current home? Who gets the washer and dryer? Etc. Protect your interests. Get a real estate broker before sending anything on paper to anyone.

By Daniel Anderson, Cy-Fair Fire Department Fire extinguishers can be vital tools for fire safety, but using one during an emergency can be intimidating. Many people may not know how to properly use them or when they should be deployed. Understanding fire extinguisher basics can be key to saving lives and property by putting out or containing small fires.

In the event of a small fire, the first thing you should always do is call 911. Fires spread quickly—in fact, according to Ready.gov, in less than 30 seconds, a small flame can turn into a major fire. While fire extinguishers can be an important element of a fire response plan, the number-one priority should be for everyone to get out safely.

Whether it’s at home, in the workplace, or elsewhere, understanding fire extinguisher basics can play an important part in minimizing risks and staying safe. In honor of Fire Prevention Week (October 6-12), here are the biggest fire extinguisher questions answered: In what situations should a fire extinguisher be used? Fire extinguishers should be used only when the fire is confined to a small area (like a wastebasket or pan), is not growing, and the room isn’t full of smoke. Also, make sure you have a clear escape route out of the building in case the fire grows.

How do I select a fire extinguisher for my home? Fire extinguishers aren’t one-size-fits-all.

Fuel source determines what type of fire extinguisher should be used.

For the home, choose an extinguisher that is multipurpose (can be used on all types of common

house fires) and carries the label of an independent testing laboratory.

The extinguisher should also be the right size—big enough to put out a small fire, but not so big and heavy that it’s hard for you to handle.

Where should a fire extinguisher be installed?

Fire extinguishers should be easily accessible and visible. This could be mounted to a wall or in an observable area where it can be quickly retrieved. Rooms like the kitchen or garage, where fires are more likely to occur, are good locations to install an extinguisher, but never install an extinguisher too close to a potential fire source (e.g., don’t place the extinguisher in a cabinet next to the oven since you wouldn’t be able to access it if the oven were on fire).

Additionally, fire extinguishers should be installed close to a clear exit so the user can make an easy escape if needed.

How do I operate a fire extinguisher? When using a fire extinguisher, remember the acronym “PASS.” This useful acronym stands for: • Pull the pin. Make sure the nozzle is pointing away from you and release the safety pin.

• Aim the nozzle low, toward the base of the fire.

• Squeeze the trigger slowly and evenly.

• Sweep the nozzle from side to side.

Do I need to do anything with my fire extinguisher after it is installed? Fire extinguishers should be routinely checked for cleanliness and acceptable pressure to ensure they function correctly. Make a habit to periodically check the pressure gauge, make certain the pin and nozzle are intact, and inspect for any signs of damage.

Read the manufacturer’s instructions on proper maintenance and replacement instructions. Fire extinguishers should also be replaced if they are used in any capacity.

Finally, fire extinguishers can save lives and property, but they are not meant to be a substitute for evacuating. The primary goal should always be safe escape. When in doubt, get out.

Financial Advice Column

Vote for solid investment strategies SUBMITTED BY PATRICK ZAMKIN With the presidential election just a few weeks away, the public is naturally interested in not just the outcome but what the results will mean for issues of national importance.

As a citizen, you likely share these concerns — but how about as an investor? After the votes are counted — or even before — should you make some moves in anticipation of possible changes in policy?

Let’s look at the big picture first, through the lens of history. The financial markets have performed well — and at times, not so well — under Democratic and Republican presidents alike. And the same is true about which party controlled Congress.

While it might be an overstatement to say that decisions made in Washington have no effect on the markets, it’s not always so easy to draw a direct line between what happens there and how the markets perform. For one thing, political candidates often make promises that are not fulfilled, or, if they are, have different results than intended.

Also, other institutions can have a significant impact on the markets. For example, the Federal Reserve, which controls short-term interest rates, can certainly affect many market sectors. And there will always be external events, such as foreign conflicts and even natural disasters, that can make shortterm impacts on the investment world.

So, rather than making changes to your portfolio in anticipation of what might happen if certain candidates get elected, or even in response to actual policy changes, look to other factors to drive your investment decisions.

These factors should include the following: Your goals – You probably have shortand long-term goals you’d like to achieve.

For your short-term goals, such as a wedding, a down payment on a house or a long vacation, you may want to invest in instruments that provide stability of

principal. For your long-term goals, most important of which may be a comfortable retirement, you’ll need to own a reasonable number of growth-oriented investments.

Your risk tolerance – When you build and maintain your investment portfolio, you’ll need to accommodate your individual risk tolerance. All investments carry some type of risk, but you need to be comfortable with the overall risk level of your investments.

Your time horizon – Where you are in life is an important consideration when investing. When you are young and just starting out in your career, you may be able to focus more on growth, as you have time to overcome the inevitable shortterm market downturns. But as you near retirement, you may want to consolidate any gains you may have achieved, and lower your risk level, by moving your portfolio toward a somewhat more conservative approach. Even in retirement, though, you will need some growth potential to stay ahead of inflation.

Your needs for liquidity – As you invest, you’ll need to maintain an adequate amount of cash and cash equivalents in your holdings. Without this liquidity, you might be forced to sell long-term investments in case you have unexpected expenses.

In any case, when it comes to investing, you may want to pay less attention to what names are on the ballot — and instead “vote” for the longer-term strategies that reflect your needs and goals.

Sizzle Safely: Cooking Safety Tips for Every Home Cooking is a beloved activity that brings friends and family together. But you might be surprised to know that according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), cooking is the leading cause of home fire injuries and reported home fires.

Many of the fires we respond to start in the kitchen. However, there are some simple things you can do to reduce your risk of having a cooking fire.

In honor of Fire Prevention Week (October 6-12), here are some essential cooking safety tips to prevent potential disasters and make sure your culinary creations are enjoyed, not extinguished.

Pay attention. The kitchen is a hub of activity, but it takes only a moment of distraction for a fire to start. Never leave the kitchen unattended while you are cooking, especially when using the stove or stovetop. Stay close and keep an eye on your food to prevent accidents.

Keep it clear. Flammable materials can quickly ignite. Keep oven mitts, towels, paper products, and anything else that can catch fire away from your stovetop. A tidy cooking space is a safe cooking space.

Set timers. Distractions while cooking can lead to a fire. Using a timer reminds you to check your food regularly, even if you become distracted, so you don’t forget about food in the oven or on the stovetop.

Setting a timer can be your best friend in the kitchen. It serves as a reminder to check on your dishes, making certain they’re cooked to perfection without risk of burning and potentially leading to a fire.

Dress for safety. Loose clothing can get caught in appliances or catch fire easily if hanging over a stovetop. Wearing close-fitting sleeves is more than a fashion choice; it’s a safety measure. Opt for fitted clothing and consider using an apron to protect yourself while cooking.

Be careful with grease. Oil catches fire easily, so be especially careful and watchful when cooking with it. Slowly heat up oil when frying and try to avoid splatter.

If you have a small grease fire, don’t try to put it out with water. Instead, slide a lid over the pan and turn off the burner. Leave the lid over the pan and let it cool.

Have a kid- (and pet-) free zone. To prevent accidents, keep children and pets at least three feet away from the oven and stovetop.

Most importantly, if there is a fire and you have any doubt about being able to put it out, just get out. Evacuate your home immediately, closing doors behind you if possible, and call 911.

By implementing these important safety tips, you can create a secure and enjoyable cooking environment in your home.

Gary / Chicago Int. Airport Hosts Critical Infrastructure Groundbreaking Ceremony

page 9

Illinois commercial pumpkin crop adequate despite wet season

By RHIANNON BRANCH FarmWeek

(Gary, IN) – On Tuesday, October 8th the Gary / Chicago International Airport held a ceremonial groundbreaking to commemorate the initial phase of a long-term expansion of the airport’s increasingly critical air cargo sector, which has quickly expanded since beginning operations in late 2020.

The groundbreaking announced roughly $24 million of multiple infrastructure enhancements to the airport, including the installation of a Jet-A fuel pipeline, installation of a new sanitary sewer system serving cargo facilities and a deicing facility and a new cargo logistics apron. When complete, these enhancements will provide GCIA added capacity to service its air cargo operations.

“This is a pivotal step to securing the future of our increasingly important air cargo offering, with these infrastructure investments made possible by the past several years’ of increasing cargo sector growth,” said Dan Vicari, Executive Director of the Gary / Chicago International Airport. “We are immensely grateful for the partnership of Congressman Mrvan, the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers and the State of Indiana for their continued support for our airport and its ability to fuel the local economy.”

Funding for these enhancements came from a variety of sources at the state and federal levels and total roughly $24 million, pulled together over a period of years. Indiana Congressman Frank J. Mrvan (1st) secured slightly over $10 million in Community Project Funding (CPF) from Fiscal Years 2023 and 2024. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will provide slightly over $4 million in funds via the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), with the State of Indiana awarding approximately $9.8 million in grant funding for the enhancements.

“Thank you to all of the leaders with the Gary/Chicago International Airport, the State of Indiana, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for taking these tangible actions to invest in the long-term economic success of the City of Gary and Northwest Indiana,” said Congressman Frank J. Mrvan (IN1st). “This is the model of how we can collaborate at all levels of government and with private industry and our workforce to continue to create more good-paying job opportunities and business development throughout our region.”

“We congratulate the airport on this important milestone,” said Jeff Simonic, UPS Transportation President – Central Zone. “We are excited about the new cargo ramp space and look forward to seeing it enhance the airport’s ability to accommodate future growth.”

This Phase 1 project will also create and upgrade roughly $2 million in enhancements to the airport’s sanitary sewer system, which will be constructed by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE). Phase 1 will also create a new cargo logistics apron that will ultimately be utilized to accommodate an additional eight (8) air cargo planes to operate out of the

airport concurrently.

“The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is proud to participate in the Gary Airport Expansion project. This initiative not only strengthens vital infrastructure but also fosters environmental sustainability and economic growth in the region,” said Col. Kenneth P. Rockwell, Chicago District Commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. “Together with our partners, we are committed to ensuring that the community is equipped with the resources it needs to thrive for years to come.”

The Jet-A fuel pipeline project will install a direct pipeline to large-capacity storage tanks at GCIA. The line will be installed in an existing right-of-way, providing on-demand transfer capabilities and eliminating the need to move fuel with traditional semi-tanker trucks. The project will reduce the carbon footprint wile lowering costs to the users.

“This expansion project will allow for safer, more efficient transport of cargo, further enhancing our logistics network in Indiana,” said Mike Smith, Commissioner of the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT). “INDOT looks forward to additional development opportunities and partnerships in the future.”

“Northwest Indiana has seen explosive growth and investment the past few years which is leading to greater opportunities for Hoosiers in the surrounding communities,” said Matt Saltanovitz, Vice President of Domestic Business Expansion at the Indiana Economic Development Corporation. “Our state’s airports, large and small, international and regional, are vital assets for our state. Companies expanding and relocating to Indiana are continuously citing our top-ranked infrastructure as a deciding factor in choosing Indiana.”

This infrastructure ceremony is the latest in a series of substantial investments GCIA has made over the prior decade, starting with the expansion of the airport’s main runway in 2015. GCIA’s runway now extends nearly 9,000 feet – the second longest runway in the region after O’Hare International Airport. This expansion has allowed the airport to service larger, heavier aircraft. GCIA opened its U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facility in 2018, allowing air travelers from any international destination to frequent the airport without needing to clear customs elsewhere.

In 2020, GCIA began cargo service operations via UPS, who signed a long-term lease agreement. Cargo service operations have quickly scaled, and GCIA now ranks 3rd in the State of Indiana on its freight volume, with further growth anticipated in coming years.

In 2022, GCIA received formal Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approvals for its Master Plan, a long-term planning document that will guide the next several decades of airport aviation and growth. In late 2023, GCIA announced its acquisition of the Griffith-Merrillville Airport, making GCIA one of only three aviation “systems” in the State of Indiana.

Be prepared before the next power outage.

Pumpkin harvest is underway in Illinois, the top pumpkinproducing state.

While many families across the state make plans to visit local ornamental pumpkin farms to pick their own treasure for decoration, mass quantities of commercially produced pumpkins are being harvested for grocery store favorites like canned pumpkin.

For nearly 25 years, Brad Sauder has been growing about 300 acres of commercial pumpkins annually on his farm in Tremont, which are harvested and processed by Nestle.

He told FarmWeek while there were some challenges earlier in the season, harvest started on time.

“Pumpkins like it a little drier,” he said. “This year we had a little too much rain early on and we suffered some fruit rot, so our production is off a little bit, but it’s an average crop for us so far this year.”

He said dry weather during harvest has been helpful since the factory can’t always work around the weather to transport the crop.

“Sometimes they are in my field picking up pumpkins after a heavy rain and that leaves the fields in rough shape,” he said. “But this year, so far fields have been nice and dry and we’re grateful for that.”

The Nestle pumpkin processing plant is based in Morton.

Illinois produces an estimated 85% of the world’s canned pumpkins. Sauder said they plant varieties of pumpkins that are ideal for processing, so they look different than the typical jack-o-lantern.

“Our pumpkins are a pale orange or yellow, oblong to round in shape and we like to see them in the 12-to-15-inch diameter size,” he said.

Data from USDA estimates almost 80% of pumpkin acres in Illinois are devoted to varieties destined for pie filling or other processing uses.

The most recent Census of Agriculture data shows Illinois maintained its leading position in pumpkin acreage in 2022, harvesting more than twice as many pumpkin acres as any of the other top states, at 17,600 acres.

Also leading in yield, Illinois produced 634 million pounds of pumpkins in 2022, more than the next five most productive states combined.

In 2023, 96% of the value and more than 98% of the tonnage (645.8 million pounds) of processed pumpkins came from Illinois.

Sauder noted that 2023 was a near record year for pumpkin production on his farm.

This story was distributed through a cooperative project between Illinois Farm Bureau and the Illinois Press Association.

VAN NORMAN

Larry Van Norman was born December 11, 1946 in Chicago, lived in Lansing, IL most of his life. He unexpectedly passed away peacefully in his Dyer, IN home on the morning of Oct 7th, 2024.

Raised as a youth across from his soon to be high school, T.F. South, Larry met life-long friends and was given the nickname “The Flash” for his stylish dress and loveable personality. Upon graduation, he joined the U.S. Air Force during the height of the Vietnam War serving from 1966-70. Because he was fluent in Russian from high school courses and tested with a high IQ, Larry was sent to serve in a secret U.S. intelligence agency in Turkey for his entire four years.

A lover of education, Larry attended Grand Valley State but quickly transferred to study Economics at Northern Illinois University. Snatched from college, he was hired

by U.S. Steel South Works division as an Accountant.

His steadfast rise working in various U.S. Steel divisions throughout his career, Larry ended his tenure as a Cost Accounting Supervisor when the steel titan shut down that mill in 1989. His superior knowledge of technology warranted his Computer Technician position at ITW and later, his role as Network Administrator for Intech EDM. Many passions fueled Larry’s life like traveling on ski slopes, sandy beaches, or Blue Ridge mountains with his wife and loved ones. A voracious reader, he would quickly devour books from scholars, mathematicians, astro-physicists, herbalists

October 16, 2024

and novelists. He loved birdwatching, astronomy, all types of music, and drinking coffee. He was Cliff Richard’s greatest fan.

His proudest moments in life were supporting and cheering on his children and grandchildren in their own passions, especially baseball.

He appreciated helping others without reservation and his legendary kindness knew no bounds.

Family was the most important part of Larry’s life.

His legacy continues with his loving family: daughter Holly (Peter) Paplomatas, son Chris (Kathleen) Van Norman, stepdaughter Michele (Michael) Reynolds, brother Thomas Van Norman and grandchildren Nolan and Colin Maurer, Luke and Liam Paplomatas, Lucas and Keegan Van Norman, and Monica, Michael and Thomas Reynolds. He was proceeded in death by his parents Irene (nee Schafer) and Vernon Van Norman and his cherished wife Donna Van Norman.

For more information contact 219.322.7300 or visit SMITS guestbook online.

After high school, he worked in the medical collection field. He discovered this was not his passion, and tried

a variety of different jobs throughout his life.

He had many interests including playing chess, a variety of board games and Bid Whist. He was a talented sketcher and enjoyed using colors. He passed on his skills of coloring to some of his young cousins as well.

He liked to binge watch his favorite TV shows and could not get enough of the History Channel. He grew up playing the saxophone and became a lover of jazz music. He knew more about jazz musicians than the average person. He enjoyed musical concerts and always managed to find the free ones.

He loved his family, and looked forward to seeing all of the latest movies, taking in theatre plays, and going out to dinner with his sister.

One day they decided to go to an Opera and afterwards decided they wouldn’t do that again.

Every year he was so happy to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday with his family and knew he would be treated to his favorite food, roasted duck and macaroni & cheese. He was a good cook himself, and loved to put cheese on everything!

Byron leaves to cherish his memory his mother, Gladys, sister, Pat “Trisha” (Patrick), his longtime companion, Shirley, aunts, uncles, greataunts and a host of cousins and friends.
