As a veteran of the United States Navy and Air Force, Robert “Bob” Horton, 83, has quite a few stories to tell about his life experiences. However, Horton’s story begins in Osceola, where he was born and raised. Horton graduated from high school in 1948, and joined the Navy when he was 17, but had to wait until he was 18 to be sworn in. After Horton completed basic training, there was no position available in the Naval Aviation Cadets for six to 10 months. Horton chose the other option of going into

Family starts donation collection for victims of Colorado flooding By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor • ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

Imagine losing everything you had in a flood. That’s what people in Colorado are currently experiencing with September’s flooding. “I don’t think people really realize how devastating it is when it hits a canyon like that, because the water has nowhere to go,” said Angela Haskell of Winterset. “I know we have floods here, and it’s horrible, but we’re flatter, so it kind of disperses. There, it comes down like a wall and it just takes everything out.” Haskell and her family are trying to help those who have lost so much by collecting canned good and nonperishable food items. Donation boxes have been set up at Southwestern Community College (SWCC) in Osceola, Creston and Red Oak. Great Western Bank in Osceola is a drop-off site for donations, too. Haskell is a SWCC student, and her mother Karen Samson is an Osceola resident. The family’s first load has already been driven to Colorado. A second load will be driven to the state in another week. 2013 flood In Colorado, the natural disaster began Sept. 9 with a slow-moving cold front that stalled across the state. The cold front soon clashed with warm, humid monsoonal air coming in from the south. The result was heavy rain and intense flooding along the state’s front range from Colorado Springs north to Fort Collins. As days went by, the situation intensified with Boulder County, Colo., being the worst hit. Flood waters have spread across a range of almost 200 miles with 17 counties affected by the disaster. Many roads and highways have been washed out and destroyed. At least 1,750 people and 300 pets have been rescued

Helping hands in Haiti Weston Brokaw, Sue and Kooper Brimm share story of Haitian service trip By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

“Life-changing.” That’s how Sue Brimm, a staff member at Clarke Community High School, described her experience in Haiti this summer. Sue was a group chaperone for a service trip her son Kooper Brimm, 15, and Weston Brokaw, 16, completed in Haiti from June 12-22. Kooper and Weston are both members of Clarke’s FFA chapter. The program the boys participated in was through the Sioux Central FFA chapter. They were with other students from across the Midwest helping to construct Sukup SafeTHomes, which look like grain-bin houses. To be selected for the service trip, the boys had to answer a three-ques-

tion essay about why they should be picked to help build homes in Haiti. Earthquake In 2010, a major earthquake struck Haiti with the country’s capital Portau-Prince near the the center of the destruction. It was estimated 316,000 people died, 300,000 were injured and 1 million were left homeless by the disaster. Kooper said the experience was fun, but there was a lot of work to do. “Right when we got down there and stepped out of the airport, it was really different and kind of scary, a little bit, because all you could see for awhile was just people. It’s all people,” Kooper said. “Once we got driving around, it was pretty crazy to see the rivers of Styrofoam that were Please see HAITI Page 4

Sukup SafeTHomes Sukup Safe T Homes are engineered structures suitable for all phases of recovery effort. They can provide shelter for 10 or more people and are resistant to moisture and termites. They are built with a double heat-shield roof and screened-in lockable windows and doors. The design can withstand 130 miles-per-hour winds and is virtually earthquake proof. The homes are 20-gauge galvanized steel with a 70-year life span. The sidewalls are 8 feet high and the overall structure stands 13.5 feet from floor to roof peak. Each unit incorporates two windows and a double-roof system to deflect heat. The cost of each home is $5,700.

by air and ground. So far, eight people have died and six are still missing. Damages from the natural disaster are estimated at more than $1 billion. 1976 flood Even though Haskell and her family are a couple of states away from the flooding in Colorado, the situation still hits close to home for them. They are collecting items in memory of family members who died in the July 31, 1976, Big Thompson Canyon flood in Colorado. The Big Thompson flood is Colorado’s deadliest flash flood in recorded history with 143 deaths. “We lost six people that year, so this is our way of giving back to the people who are suffering now,” Haskell said. “We may not have money to do anything financially, really, but we’re volunteering to drive the material goods out to the food banks, and also to the shelters out there.” Recommended Recommended donations items are food, diapers, pet food and other animal supplies. Haskell said a lot of material goods and clothing have already been supplied to those in need. She said she has been in contact with United Way and the Red Cross, and has

He also signed up for submarine duty for extra money. “I had a chance to take a tour on a submarine, and that didn’t really appeal to me,” Horton said. “I couldn’t even walk standing up.” For a period of time, Horton was stationed on a Navy destroyer in California. After being discharged from the Navy, he returned to the family farm in Osceola.
