DARIEN – DuPage County sheriff’s police are investigating the deaths of four family members whose bodies were found Tuesday in their home near Darien in Downers Grove Township.

Jeana Andrus, 48; Jessica Andrus, 22; Jennifer Andrus, 16; and David Andrus, 50, were found shot to death.

According to autopsy reports, the women’s deaths have been ruled homicides while David Andrus’ death was ruled a suicide.

No further information was provided this week by the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Dawn Domrose said officers were called to the home in unincorporated DuPage County on a report of a disturbance about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Authorities haven’t revealed what may have led to the murder-suicide, citing an ongoing investigation.

The incident occurred at 555 Oldfield Road, and police had blocked off the street near Oldfield and Robert roads Tuesday.

Oldfield Road mostly was quiet about 8 p.m. Tuesday night as neighbors went back inside their homes.

“It’s pretty scary,” said Darien resident Margaret Chadwell, who lives nearby.

Other neighbors said they ventured outside when they saw police activity Tuesday afternoon.

“I got here at about 5:15, and it was just lit up with police cars and helicopters were in the sky,” Linda DeFranco of Darien said.

The home where the bodies were found is about a block from where the Kramer family was murdered in their home in March 2010. Jacob Nodarse, formerly of Countryside, pleaded guilty in the fatal shootings of Jeffrey, Lori and Michael Kramer. Johnny

Borizov of Willow Springs was convicted last month of orchestrating the murders.

Jessica Andrus was a Class of 2011 alumna of Hinsdale South High School, while Jennifer was a student in the Class of 2015, Principal Brian Waterman said.

“On behalf of Hinsdale South, we would like to offer our sincere condolences and thoughts to the family and friends of Jennifer and Jessica during this difficult time,” read a statement issued from

David Andrus is a descendant of Thomas Andrus, who was one of the original settlers of Darien in 1835.

“The Andruses who live on Oldfield Road are related to Thomas Andrus,” said Dean Rodkin, a member of the Darien Historical Society. “To be honest with you, I can’t tell you how that lineage goes.”

Thomas Andrus settled along an old stagecoach line, which was about where In-

David Andrus and his family lived about a block north of Andrus Road, which was named after the founder. Their home had not been passed down through the Andrus family.

“As far as the people who live on Oldfield, I’d never had any contact with them,” Rodkin said.

D-86 looks to improve transparency

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – In the April election for school board, “Friends for District 86” ran on a platform that called for fiscal responsibility, community collaboration and an increase in transparency.

One of those issues was brought to light last week as the District 86 Board of Education addressed transparency and agreed to allow

the public to have access to agenda items and documents at the same time the board does.

This does not include, however, confidential or legal documents.

School board President Victor Casini said this is an important step the board is taking to help improve transparency, but it’s not the first.

“We also talked ... about improving response time to questions from the commu-

“This is just a fresh set of eyes looking at something ...”

nity,” Casini said. “We also adopted a practice of posting all [Freedom of Information Act] requests as well as their responses online so everyone

can see what’s been asked for and what’s been provided.”

District 86 formerly would post documents the Friday before the school board meeting, but not all documents were included that would be discussed. In the days after the meeting, the remainder would be posted.

“This is just a fresh set of eyes looking at something and deciding to want to do it differently, but I don’t want to imply at all that the previous way of doing it was wrong; it’s just a different way,” Casini said.

An official vote wasn’t taken by board members, but Casini said the decision was unanimous. He said it’s now up to residents as to how they want to use the information.

“It’s at their disposal and they can use it or not use it as they see fit,” he said.

Autoimmune condition?

Living with an autoimmune disorder can afect every part of your life. It keeps you from enjoying the good things in life… time with your kids, grandkids, activities like goling, biking, yard work and gardening.

Did you know that leaky gut syndrome is a precursor to an autoimmune disease?

Did you know that your gut makes up 80% of your immune system?

An autoimmune disorder is when your immune system attacks your own body. here is NO CURE for autoimmune disorders, but you can calm down the immune response NATURALLY. My name is Dr. Jefrey E Forzley, with Lemont Natural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physician and a holistic practitioner. I am passionate about helping people with chronic health conditions. I have been in practice for 28 years. As a holistic practitioner I evaluate the whole body and the many systems of the body, integrate their relationships, manage the underlying cause and use natural methods to manage autoimmune disorders.

Are you sufering with any of these autoimmune disorders?

• Hashimotos hroiditis • Rheumatoid Arthritis • Graves Disease • Multiple Sclerosis • Scleroderma • Sjogren’s Syndrome • Type 1 Diabetes • Myasthenia Gravis • Ankylosing Spondylitis • Perniscious Anemia

• Lupus • ALS • Psoriasis • Vasculitis • Celiac Disease • Crohn’s Disease • Addison’s Disease • Urticaria (Hives) • Eczema • Raynauds

Medications are not always the long term answer.

Medications can give you temporary relief but they DO NOT ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING CAUSE of your immune imbalance. All medications have side efects. hese side efects can be more detrimental than the original symptoms sometimes.

Did you know that medications to treat autoimmune conditions can WEAKEN your immune system and lead to infections and immune degenerative conditions including cancer? here is a time to use medications but not before a NATURAL way to manage the underlying imbalance.

So how do I help people with autoimmune disorders? I use a combination of speciic NEUROLOGICAL protocols and NUTRITION recommendations… Neuro-Metabolic herapy.

Your Brain (nervous System) controls all other systems of the body. It controls your immune system. digestive system, endocrine (hormone) system… so if you have an immune system imbalance or autoimmune condition, evaluating and managing the nervous system is required for optimal improvement.

Your immune system. here are 2 parts to the front line defense of your immune system… TH1 (white blood cells) and TH2 (antibody response). hese 2 parts should work in balance together. But when you are sufering from an autoimmune disorder, one part is out of balance (dominant). his leads to an imbalance in TH3 which in turn leads to an autoimmune response.

Testimonials I was diagnosed with Graves Disease (autoimmune thyroid) three years ago. My endocrinologist recommended surgery to remove my thyroid and put me on medication for the rest of my life. I searched for an alternative treatment to save my thyroid and found Dr. Forzley. hrough comprehensive lab testing he found out what was causing my immune system to attack my thyroid. I have been receiving treatments and following his recommendations exactly and my lab numbers are now normal, my endocrinologist is happy, my medication has been reduced in half and I feel better. I highly recommend Dr. Forzley and his natural approach.

Samantha R. I sufered from unbearable itching caused by Hives (chronic autoimmune Urticaria) for over 33 years. Steroid medications helped the symptoms temporarily but the side efects were bad.

Ater an in-depth blood and metabolic analysis, Dr. Forzley found the cause of my problem. Ater 4-5 months of strictly following his recommendations, my hives are completely gone and I feel great.

Cheryl P. If your immune system is not managed properly, your condition can worsen, result in a poor quality of life, cause a shortening of the length of your life and cause other autoimmune disorders.

Holistic herapy can manage autoimmune conditions by: 1) inding and balancing the underlying cause.

2) lowering the self destructive efects of the immune system.

3) using natural therapies that work with your body.

I can work with your immune system NATURALLY and balance the TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17. You can never be cured of an autoimmune disorder.

BUT, you can get symptom relief and calm down the immune attack on you own body. You must get a detailed immune system evaluation followed by speciic recommendation based on those tests.

Guess what stimulates TH1?Vitamin C. But if you are TH1 dominant, Taking vitamin C will WORSEN your immune response. hat’s right worsen. We need to identify which part of your immune system is dominant in order to calm down the immune system.

I don’t treat or cure autoimmune disorders.

By using speciic neurological and nutritional protocols, I help to decrease your body’s inlammation, detoxify your body, balance TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17 which NATURALLY boosts your immune system. THAT is how I address autoimmune disorders.

Brothers team up to fight cancer pain

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com WILLOWBROOK – John Lasota was on holiday in Hawaii when the pain started to kick in.

“I was so sick I couldn’t move,” said Lasota, 65, of Lemont.

Lasota went to a local doctor’s office and was advised to seek additional medical attention when he reached the mainland. After a series of tests and a biopsy in 2009, it was revealed Lasota had prostate cancer and later would need it removed in November 2010 after radiation treatment failed.

Six months later, he ran into complications and started to suffer pain to the point where he couldn’t walk. He later was transferred to a nursing home for a short period of time.

“When I got released from the nursing home, I had severe pain,” he said. “I couldn’t sit. I had to lay flat or stand up and walk and I hardly had any energy to do that. I was semi-bedridden.”

That’s when Lasota was taken to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America at Midwestern Regional Medical Center, where he met the Rahman brothers. They specialize in cancer pain management.

“A lot of times whether it’s myself or my brother, we’re almost interchangeable at this point, whenever we see patients, we try to make them feel extremely comfortable and let them know they can call us at anytime,” said Abed Rahman, 37, of Willowbrook.

Abed and his brother, Raed, may not be identical twins, but they’ve had similar upbringings and they are only a year apart. In fact,

“... Whenever we see patients, we try to make them feel extremely comfortable and let them know they can call us at anytime.”

Abed Rahman Willowbrook resident both are married and have three children identical in age. And after the brothers spent time in the armed forces, they both pursued careers in medicine.

Two years ago, Raed joined Cancer Treatment Centers of America, and Abed followed a year later.

When they met Lasota, he was suffering from tremendous pain, so they decided to use a nerve block treatment.

Abed said there are six pathways of different nerves that go to the pelvis. It’s their job to pick the one that’s going to decrease pain by injecting a local anesthetic and steroid around the nerve using a precision-guided X-ray.

Lasota said he received the treatment over a sixmonth period.

“I’d say 60 to 65 percent of my pain went away,” Lasota said.

Treating the physical aspect of pain is one thing, but Raed said he and his brother also need to talk about underlying emotional pain with patients because that greatly affects treatment.

“The mind can start to adapt in a certain way by patients being sad for no reason, afraid or anxious for no reason,” Raed said.

Today, Lasota is cancer free and has his pain under control. He couldn’t speak more highly of the brothers as he disused their bedside manner, intelligence and comfort they provided him.

“You get treat ed as a brother, or a sister, a mother or a father,” Lasota said.

“I get the chills when I talk about them because I really mean it from my heart.”

Are You Starting to See Excessive Dog Hair in Your Home?

It’s beginning … the annual shedding of the winter coat of your beloved dog.

The winter coat that your pet put on for the winter is beginning to release and allow for the summer coat to come in.

This can be a minor inconvenience for some, or a downright blizzard of blowing dog hair for some dog owners – depending on the type of breed and coat.

We have an awesome solution for you!!!!!

We will give your dog a full spring cleaning treatment using the Furminator De-Shedding system.

This system is specially designed to dramatically reduce the amount of hair you will have in your home.

This de-shedding system is a multistep process that uses special de-shedding tools, shampoo, conditioner and drying.

This service normally costs anywhere from $20 to $40 extra on top of a regular grooming. But for this ad only, we are offering this service with a regular grooming for FREE. Just to show you the math, a regular grooming runs about $43, and with the de-shedding system, add another $20. This is a total cost of $63 in value. You get it for FREE. What are the catches? Only one… We are offering this to new customers to Belle Aire Grooming.

If you have not had the chance to try our services, we would like the

opportunity to win you over with this fantastic offer. If you are new to us, give us a call at

630-969-3145 to book your appointment.

We have given away over 65 free groomings in the last three months and people are just loving what we’re doing for them. The first grooming is on us, so give us a call today because we really do book up fast because we only have a couple of spots open a day.

Finally, hopefully, we have seen the end of old man winter and we can start enjoying a new spring.

I wish you and your pet all the best this new spring time.

NATURE’S BEST

‘Flash mob’ celebrates retiring teachers

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com CLARENDON HILLS – The music started as a stampede of fifth graders swarmed down the grass hill at Walker School ready to give three retiring teachers a departure fit for royalty.

“Everybody all together, all together, let’s have some fun,” made up the first verse of the song blasted during a flash mob May 31 to surprise Cindy Michaelis, Lynn Kastholm and Sheila Chatham, who will retire this year from District 181.

And what better lyrics to echo the dance as eventually all grades joined in at the conclusion of Walker School’s Field Day, an end-of-the-year celebration for the school.

“The whole thing is we’re all in this together,” said Melissa Marshall, a physical education teacher at Walker who planned the Field Day events.

“We’re a family together and we’re kind of saluting our family leaving.”

Matthew Piechalak – mpiechalak@shawmedia.com

Students perform a “flash dance” for teachers May 31 Sheila Chatham, Cindy Michaelis and Lynn Kastholm during Field Day at Walker School, 120 Walker Ave. in Clarendon Hills. The three teachers are retiring this school year.

Better yet was that none of the retiring teachers were expecting it as they sat together in the foreground of the field, eying with amazement as the students coordinated a dance they learned during their general music and P.E. classes and in their free time.

“I’m a bad crier,” said Kastholm, who will retire as a fifth grade teacher after 15 years at District 181. “How wonderful and truly touching.”

After the flash mob, the three teachers were attacked by a flurry of hugs from the students who wanted to say

goodbye.

Michaelis, a differentiation specialist who is retiring after 20 years in the district, said she was shocked by the performance and support.

“I had no idea,” Michaelis said. “They did all this without us knowing a thing. That was wonderful. What could be better than having little kids do that for you?”

Meanwhile, Chatham was surrounded by her fourth graders, who spent the rest of Field Day expressing their thanks to her. It was these kids, and the camaraderie with the staff,

that she said she’ll miss the most.

“The children are so sweet and when they’re coming into fourth grade, they’re so excited to meet their teacher,” said Chatham, who is celebrating 16 years in the district. “Their enthusiasm is contagious.”

Chatham told her students that she wished they could’ve seen the performance from where she was sitting because of how amazing it looked.

“She’s awesome,” said 9-year-old Maria Rivera, a fourth-grader from Clarendon Hills. “She’s probably the nicest teacher ever.”

While the flash mob was a tribute to the teachers, the rest of Field Day was a celebration for everyone. Marshall said there were 12 stations for the kids to team up with to accomplish tasks. Some of these included the sponge pass and a tire-rolling relay.

“All the stations are meant – because the theme is ‘we’re all in this together’ – to really support community and the kids have to work together,” Marshall said.

After all, it’s the kids who the three teachers said they will miss the most.

“It’s been a great ride for all these 20 years and this is why you do it,” Michaelis said. “Because of these great kids.”

During the summer after her second year of teaching, her alma mater, Lockport High School, heard about her experience in theater and wanted her as the director. She still wanted to teach English, so the school allowed her to teach courses and direct plays.

Within two and a half years, she became the associate department chairwoman at Lockport Central High School in the English department.

She also had dreams of being an actress and later performed in community and university theater productions.

Her first job was at Joliet West High School as an English teacher after she student taught there.

This was in the early ’80s though during tough economic times. In fact, 225 teachers were released from Joliet high schools that year, which included Martin. After being released, she moved on to Bolingbrook High School, but she was laid off again.

OAK BROOK – At just 5 years old, she would stand in front of her students as they hung on her every word without so much as a peep.

They were her dolls and stuffed animals, and may have been the most disciplined students District 53 Superintendent Sandra Martin ever had.

But before she even entered school herself, Martin knew she wanted to be a teacher as she would hold “class” for whoever wanted to listen.

After 10 years in the Oak Brook school system, Martin will retire this year.

“It always just felt very natural to be in a school setting,” Martin said. “I loved learning and I loved inspiring others to learn.”

This was at a time in the early ’60s when Martin said there weren’t many role models for young women aside from teachers and nurses.

“I didn’t really care for the

years old and I’m supervising teachers who were my teachers just eight years earlier,” Martin said.

She stayed in Lockport for seven years before moving on to a couple of other schools – preparing her to become superintendent of District 53.

Martin said her fondest memories include having the opportunity to work with a wonderful community, children and staff. Over the years, she looked back with pride on the district’s ability to increase student achievement, update facilities and maintain fiscal responsibility.

She only wishes all superintendents were as lucky as she was.

“We’re very blessed that we have some very talented children attending these schools who come from very good homes with supportive families,” Martin said. “If only all schools could be blessed in that way, this would be a wonderful education system for the country.”

I would like to address the reader who left the tidbit on your “Sound Off” column titled “Go ahead and squirm.” The retort to that is, as a public servant, I spent the last 30 years responding to your security and criminal needs. In the dark when you wouldn’t open your door, I was there making sure you were all right. When you heard a noise and wouldn’t go down that dark alley, I did. When you needed help from medical or fire emergency, I came there. Now that our elected officials have brought the mess that they created to the attention of the public, you say, “Go bankrupt.” Shame on you and what you stand for. We gave up parties, plans and events with our families to protect you, now you want to dump us off in the gutter? … I bet you still call us for help. What if we said, “no,” just like you are now?

Extras and perks Hi, I agree with the person who wrote “enough is enough” regarding real estate taxes that have gone up and our property values going down. And all these kids, especially in Lyons Township, getting all kinds of extras and perks.

Education should stick to the basics, and any of these other things, like water polo, aviation, and boating, all these other things that kids do, their parents should pay extra for that. I don’t have an iPad. I have a simple, basic computer. I have a simple phone. I can’t afford half the stuff these kids have in high school. And because I’m in an unincorporated area, I have to pay if I want a library card. I still don’t have a library card and I’ve lived in this area for 19 years and I’m paying enough property taxes to send somebody’s child to school, but I can’t get a library card for free. It makes me want to go back to high school so I can take advantage of my own tax dollars.

The district has had an identical waiver on file with the General Assembly for the past five years, but it is set to expire in fall 2014.

According to school code, if a school district wants to charge more than $250 for the class, it must file a waiver with the General Assembly. This additional charge allows the district to recoup some of the cost of the program.

the fear of change.

Because of this, a group of citizens in the U.S. are still denied civil rights: a group known as LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender). As a nation, it is time to once again protect the rights of our citizens and proclaim “all men are created equal” regardless of sexual orientation.

For too long, people who like the same sex have been denied the basic rights available to everyone else in society. They have had to hide in fear of who they are because society deemed it unacceptable. This summer, there will be an opportunity to right the wrongs inflicted upon this community. The constitutionality of California’s Proposition 8 may be reviewed by the Supreme Court, providing the golden opportunity to lay to rest the debates over gay rights.

Just pause for a second: Some people are called sinners because they love someone. Not because they hurt someone, not because they stole something, not because they lied, but they committed the act everyone searches for in life. And even if this still offends you, and you interpret the word of whomever you believe in differently than me, there is a beauty in the foundation of the U.S. – the separation of church and state.

This is crucial to the debate over gay rights because anyone who cites religious reasons for denying basic human rights is going against a founding tenant of this nation. Politicians must only be focused on preserving the rights of the people, rights the LGBT community is currently denied.

Hopefully, the Supreme Court

State representative seeks residents’ input To the Editor: Jobs and economic opportunity are of paramount concern to me and to my constituents.

As we work to get the state and nation out of an economic slump that has lasted for years and we debate policies at the state capitol that will affect our economy, it is vital that I get the input of those I represent – from employers, employees and taxpayers.

To help me gather input on economic development concerns and priorities, I have formed an Economic Development Advisory Committee.

As a state representative, it is my goal to be the most open See LETTERS, page 18

Heroin use prevention important in education To the Editor: We would like to commend the state legislature for taking action on the heroin crisis affecting too many families in Illinois. Lawmakers recently passed House Bill 946, which creates the Young Adults Heroin Use Task Force and charges the group with studying “the growing problem of heroin use in high schools across this state.”

We urge the governor to sign this bill so the task force can be formed and promptly begin its important work.

The Robert Crown Center for Health Education began piloting a heroin prevention education initiative in four counties during the 2012-2013 school year. We welcome the engagement of state lawmakers, school administrators, law enforcement, educators and parents as we seek to reduce the number of lives lost.

Our research shows that typical drug prevention education approaches are failing to prevent the problem of heroin abuse. Together, we can help our youth understand the devastating effects of heroin on the brain, the body, on their families and futures.

As a community, we can adopt effective primary prevention strategies to reduce the hold heroin has on our young people and guarantee a healthier future for Illinois students and their families.

Kathleen M. Burke CEO, Robert Crown Center for Health Education

Elmhurst man’s garden hobby grows into community service

By MARI GRIGALIUNAS mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – In the midst of the sensory adventure Bruce and Katie Paul have created in their Elmhurst backyard with colorful flowers and the smell of fresh herbs stand a trio of gnomes.

Gifts from his children and wife, each emulates one of Bruce Paul’s roles: the singer, the builder and the gardener.

But despite the masterpiece in their backyard, Bruce wasn’t born with a green thumb.

About Bruce Paul Age: 62 Residence: Elmhurst Hobbies: Singing, gardening, rebuilding homes for charity How he eats from his garden: Cooking soups, making pesto, sprinkling dill on popcorn or fish, making salad dressing

“You have to be a little bit tough to be one of his plants,” said his wife, Katie.

Twenty-four years ago, just before the youngest of

their three children was born, Bruce Paul planted the seeds of a hobby that grew into a community service.

“When you have a seed packet and there are 50 seeds, and you want five plants, what are you going to do?

That’s the birth of the idea,” he said.

Throwing out extra seeds never even was an option. So he planted entire packets of seeds on carts in the middle of his living room to have the sprouting plants enjoy the most natural light. After learning experiences, and

wilting plants, he still had more seedlings than his family could ever enjoy.

“First, I just started giving them to friends,” Bruce said.

Now, with his own greenhouse, years of experience and hours of research, Bruce discovered a new opportunity: supplying Elmhurst community gardens with free plants. The produce and herbs then are harvested for hungry families in the area.

“You got to do your part,” he said. “This is just something that seems natural to do.”

Lawrence M. Colton, age 64, passed away in his home in Darien on May 25.

He is survived by his wife, Sheila, nee Bennett, his daughter, Anna Aiko Colton of Omagari, Japan, and many cousins.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Samuel and Mary Ann Colton.

He was born in Chicago. After graduation from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, he served in the US Navy. After discharge, he worked as a commercial pilot, contracting assignments in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. After his retirement he enjoyed classic movies and military history. He was devoted to his golden retriever, Rusty, and cats Simba and Casmir.

Arrangements were made by DuPage Memorial Chapel. Services were private.

MARY ANN L. REICHEL Mary Ann L. Reichel nee Assise, age 75, of Oak Brook, formerly of Elmhurst. Beloved wife of the late Robert, loving mother of Richard (Kathleen Lozano) Musil and Michael A. (Jackie) Musil, cherished sister of Patricia (Jack) Visny, fond aunt of Michelle Bailey, dear cousin and friend to many.

Author investigates paranormal Bartlett resident explores supernatural, superstitious beliefs in first book

By BONNIE CLASSEN msleditorial@shawmedia.com “Piercing the Veils of Death (A Paranormal Exploration)” is Dane Ladwig’s self-published book, which he describes as “an adventure through the hereafter of paranormal, supernatural and superstitious beliefs, where faith intercedes and life questions reason.”

The book sold more than 500 copies the first weekend, and a barrage of questions and comments from curious readers anxious to share their own experiences, or delve into the world of supernatural phenomena, overflow from Ladwig’s in-box.

The book opens with the story of a young man attending his own funeral and then turns nonfiction, as the author probes his own supernatural experiences and explores related topics such as apparitions, the spirituality of the American Indian, even the death of pets. The book ends with interviews of professional paranormal investigators explaining what happens when they are called out on an alleged haunting or sighting.

Ladwig is a Bartlett resident, a graduate of Elmhurst College and Moody Bible Institute and an ordained chaplain, with degrees in English, philosophy and theology. Before the release of his book, he hosted an online radio show, “A View From My Loft,” in which he interviewed authors including best-selling crime writer RJ Parker, now one of Ladwig’s closest friends and mentors.

“We just clicked,” Ladwig said. “He is a seasoned writer, a cornucopia of knowledge, and he taught me a lot about self-publishing and also marketing. I am grateful for his wisdom and friendship.”

In addition to the goal of completing one book a year to satisfy his passion for writing, Ladwig holds another

“I’d like to visit schools and serve as living proof that no matter how tough the journey may get, kids can control their destinies, make their own choices and even make a difference in the world.”

objective close to his heart, stemming from a harsh childhood in which he fended for himself on the streets of Chicago.

“I’d like to visit schools and serve as living proof that no matter how tough the journey may get, kids can control their destinies, make their own choices and even make a difference in the world,” he said. “And I’d like to urge them to never give up on their dreams, but to dream big; the universe is the limit. I would also like to convey the message that they should never allow themselves to conform to the low expectations of doubters and naysayers who may predict for them a future of inevitable failure.”

A portion of proceeds from the book will be donated to fighting Noonan syndrome, a congenital disorder. And Ladwig offers free copies to veterans, service members and civil servants, noting, “These people put their lives on the line every day for my freedom to be able to write, and this is one small way to show my gratitude and thanks.”

Dane Ladwig penned “Piercing the Veils of Death (A Paranormal Exploration).”

His second book, “Dr. H.H. Holmes and the Whitechapel Ripper,” scheduled for release this fall, follows three years of research and the procurement of what he re-

fers to as “history-changing evidence” involving the Jack the Ripper murders. He says he is confident that after 125 years, the true story finally will be told.

Former Central star keeps Green Bay job, receives support from local coach, former player

By JASON ROSSI

Course of action

jrossi@shawmedia.com GREEN BAY, Wis. – Something just didn’t add up for Rob Brost.

When allegations of mistreatment by Brian Wardle toward his University of Wisconsin-Green Bay men’s basketball players came to light in April, it didn’t add up for Brost, head coach at Bolingbrook High School.

“Coach Wardle is a standup guy who’s done a great job,” Brost said. “Those allegations go against everything I know from dealing with him.”

Wardle, a former Hinsdale Central basketball star, was the lead recruiter when UWGB landed former Boling- Troy b r o o k p l a y e r Snyder Troy Snyder in 2009, and he was on the Phoenix’s staff (he took over as head coach in 2010) when Bolingbrook’s Russell Burns, Diamond Taylor and Ben Moore were recruited to play there.

Snyder, who transferred to the University of Maryland Eastern Shore after the 2010-11 season to be closer to his mother who lives in Maryland, said he didn’t follow the story too closely but had a similar reaction to Brost’s.

“Wardle, he was a guy who would yell at you, but it was because he wanted you to play better and believed you could play better,” Snyder said. “As far as some of the stuff I read, I never saw anything like that. He never

Green Bay attorney Joesph Nicks led an independent investigation into the allegations against Wardle.

In a report given to UWGB Chancellor Thomas Harden, Nicks concluded that the accusations against Wardle were “by no means” certain, although it did prompt Harden to: • Place a disciplinary letter addressing Wardle’s use of language into his personnel file at the university; • Not extend Wardle’s contract beyond the current ending date of 2017; • Have an adviser assigned to coach Wardle with the goal of improving the way he communicates and motivates his players, and; • Have Wardle become more involved with universitywide activities to better gauge the overall university atmosphere.

used any profanity.

“If he’s yelling at you but keeping you in the game, it means he believes in you.

I used it as motivation to play harder, play more focused and play better. I used it as motivation and played through it.”

The university has allowed Wardle to retain his coaching position after the independent investigation

by Green Bay attorney Joseph Nicks determined that the accusations were “by no means” certain.

“Some coaches, I believe they have a different way of coaching, a different way of getting through to you,” Snyder said. “Some players know how to respond to that, and some don’t.”

University of Wisconsin-Green Bay men’s basketball coach Brian Wardle, who starred for Hinsdale Central High School in the 1990s, said his team grew closer during the investigation into his treatment of the players.

Among the allegations to surface against Wardle were that he forced one player to participate in a preseason conditioning drill when he was ill, that he encouraged the same player to have sex in order to play better, and that he did not let that player complete course work toward a pre-med field of study because it would interfere with basketball. Another player complained of relentless verbal abuse.

Wardle has limited his media exposure since the allegations were made and after the investigation concluded, although he did speak with media outlets in Green Bay.

“What I want people to understand is this is not a woe is me situation,” Wardle told WGBA-TV NBC26. “My main concern has always been my family, my wife, my three kids, my parents and all my family back home that had to read things in their local papers, and my current players and staff and their families. Those were my concerns. I really didn’t think much about myself.”

Wardle also told WGBA that the adversity created by the investigation in a way helped the team.

“I think it is only going to make us better,” Wardle

said. “Our locker room leadership [is better], and our players had to mature quickly during this process. I got better as a coach and learned a lot of lessons through this process, and I think we are going to be a better program because of it.”

Wardle led Hinsdale Central to back-to-back state tournament appearances before graduating in 1997 and went on to play at Marquette University. He was the youngest men’s basketball coach in Division I at age 30 when he was hired in 2010.

Last winter marked his best season as Green Bay’s head coach with an 18-16 record.

ALL-AREA MVP: ELAINE HELFLIN

Rise to power

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – Elaine Heflin sure showed those travel coaches wrong.

Two travel coaches, to be precise.

When she was a younger player, two coaches in two different travel softball programs told her she had no future as a pitcher.

“It was definitely devastating to hear, but they pushed me to where I am today,” the recent Downers Grove North graduate said. “I wanted to prove those people wrong.”

She did that in a big way. A four-year varsity player for the Trojans, Heflin was part of four of the most successful Trojan teams in program history: four conference championships, two regional titles and North’s first appearance in a sectional championship game in more than 30 years.

Heflin’s stellar pitching was a foundation of the Trojans’ success during her varsity stint, but if there was one constant it was that she would deflect praise to those around her.

“She’s so humble. She would never talk about herself,” North coach Mark Magro said. “She was confident, but not cocky. She never put herself ahead of her teammates.”

Humility is something Heflin always has had, and it’s a trait that became even more ingrained thanks to the two coaches who said she should shelve the idea of being a pitcher, and her parents.

“Growing up there were some humbling experiences,” she said. “I had to work hard to get to where I am, and my parents told me never to brag, so it comes from my parents

UIC recruit proves naysayers wrong, emerges as one of state’s elite pitchers

Heflin’s favorites Pro athlete: Walter Payton Senior year class: Advanced Placement Government Food: Chocolate Movie: “Miracle” Music: Electronic dance music

and how they brought me up.”

Those two travel coaches obviously didn’t see what Heflin’s youth coaches in DOLLS saw or what a slew of high school coaches saw when she stepped inside the pitcher’s circle.

That is, an athletic player, a hard thrower and a fierce competitor.

“Heflin is all that they say she is,” Downers Grove South coach Ron Havelka said. “She’s a great pitcher.”

“We haven’t faced a pitcher like Heflin all year,” Benet coach Jerry Schilf said before Heflin and the Trojans topped the Redwings in the playoffs.

“Without a doubt she’s the best pitcher we’ve seen.”

After starting her softball career in first grade, Heflin assumed her pitching duties in second grade and has been at it ever since. She also played first base and third base when she wasn’t pitching earlier in her career, but pitching always was her favorite.

Pitching won’t get any easier at the next level when she continues her career at UIC, where she intends to study criminal justice in hopes of becoming a lawyer. But if there is one other constant for Heflin, it’s that she won’t shy away from a challenge.

“I always loved pitching because it’s such a challenge,” she said. “I like doing something not a lot of other players could do, something that’s hard to do.”

ALL-AREA SOFTBALL

Caitlyn Daly

School: Benet Year: Sophomore

School: Downers Grove South Year: Junior

School: Downers Grove South Year: Junior

For opposing pitchers, there was probably no scarier sight than seeing Abello step into the batter’s box.

The East Suburban Catholic all-conference selection led the Redwings in average (.550) and home runs (12), tied for team-high honors with 51 RBIs and scored 21 runs, all in 25 games.

Batting in the heart of the order, Andree consistently produced all season and led South’s regulars in hits (53), doubles (13), home runs (six), RBIs (34) and batting average (.449). The West Suburban Gold all-conference shortstop also committed just nine errors in 215 innings and was team coMVP in spring.

A key cog in the Mustangs’ offensive machine, Daly batted .407 overall this spring but picked it up with runners in scoring position, hitting .478 in those situations.

She finished with 30 RBIs, a team-high 38 runs scored and five home runs and committed only two errors this season. She was named West Suburban Gold all-conference and team co-MVP.

Caroline Hedgcock School: Downers Grove South Year: Freshman Up with the varsity from the first game of the season, Hedgcock hardly performed like a freshman. The West Suburban Gold all-conference player was among the team leaders offensively with a .368 average, 25 RBIs and three home runs, and she assumed the role of No. 1 pitcher, throwing 154.1 innings and finishing with a 15-8 record.

Elaine Heflin

Carly Jaworski

Rylie Jay

School: Downers Grove North Year: Senior

School: Lemont Year: Senior

School: Lemont Year: Sophomore

This senior seemingly did it all for the Indians this spring. The ace of the pitching staff, Jaworski finished with a record of 12-6 with two saves and posted an ERA of 1.50 in 126 innings of work. Offensively, as the team’s No. 3 hitter, Jaworski batted .425 with 11 doubles, four triples, three home runs and 35 RBIs.

Coming off an outstanding freshman campaign, Jay outdid herself this spring. A talented shortstop with a cannon arm, this sophomore made life miserable for opposing pitchers.

She batted .584 on the season with 13 doubles, 10 home runs, 43 runs scored and 51 RBIs.

The UIC-bound Heflin was one of the most dominant pitchers in the state, and her stats bear that out.

The West Suburban Silver all-conference pick finished the season with a 17-5 record with a 0.96 ERA while allowing just 30 walks and striking out 267 batters in 146 innings.

She also threw two perfect games, three no-hitters and 10 shutouts.

Honorable Mention Benet: Ali Mihalik, Marissa Panko, Emily York Bolingbrook: Dani Knaak, Nikki Wood

Sabrina Kuchta

Megan Lotarski

School: Hinsdale South Year: Junior

School: Bolingbrook Year: Sophomore

While the Hornets may have ups and downs this season, Kuchta sure didn’t.

Playing in every game this spring, the West Suburban Gold all-conference selection led South in almost every offensive category, including batting average (.441), runs scored (28), RBIs (26), doubles (10) and home runs (five) as the team captured a regional title.

The Raiders’ ace pitcher kept her ERA under two for most of the season until a tough playoff game pushed it to 2.05. But the SouthWest Suburban Blue all-conference selection led Bolingbrook to the regional championship game for the first time in years by striking out a school-record 172 in 147 innings.

Maeve McGuire

Carolyn Nojiri

Kristen Skala

Summer Stitt

School: Benet Year: Senior

School: Downers Grove North Year: Senior

School: Westmont Year: Junior

School: Lisle Year: Junior

Skala produced whopping numbers at the plate for the Sentinels, where she batted .430 with a team-leading 24 RBIs and three home runs. But that was just the tip of the iceberg.

The Interstate Eight all-conference player also was Westmont’s top pitcher and finished the year 11-9 with a 1.96 ERA and 178 strikeouts in 128 innings pitched.

A two-way threat for the Lions, Stitt was among the offensive leaders with a .429 batting average, .675 slugging percentage, 15 RBIs and 15 walks. As the ace pitcher, she fanned 124 and walked 49 in 131 innings. Stitt was team co-MVP, an Interstate Eight all-conference player and all-academic in the I-8.

McGuire’s torrid production throughout her high school career continued this season. The University of Georgia-bound East Suburban Catholic all-conference selection finished the season with a .516 batting average, tied for the team lead with 51 RBIs and topped the Redwings with 26 walks and a .625 on-base percentage.

The primary tasks for a leadoff hitter are to get on base and score runs.

Nojiri excelled at both this spring, finishing the year with a team-high .519 batting average and with 33 runs scored.

The West Suburban Silver all-conference player also had 15 extra-base hits with nine doubles, three triples, and three home runs.

The mother and son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948.

Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out if their Chicago apartment in 1948.

Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high end store in the California based department store chain.

In 1966, the Higgins decided to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.”

There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company.
