Still going strong Klein shares lessons from her 50-year career as Murray’s school nurse

By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

MURRAY — “It’s not the destination, it’s the journey. It’s been a powerful, fun journey – still going.”

Those are the words from Mary Klein, Murray’s school nurse who has served the district for 50 years.

It’s rare these days for an educator to have served for five decades, let alone all of them in the same school district. Many hit a certain age and retire. Not Klein.

“It’s been a fun ride,” she said fondly while discussing her career.

You could call Klein a multitasker.

She has a teaching certification and gives first aid and CPR classes to the seniors. She also teaches health occupations levels one and two, as well as medical terminology classes.

Klein sponsors the Future Nurses of America (FNA) club and stays involved with the Silver and Bronze Chord honor programs.

“She’s a tremendous addition to our staff and working with our kids, obviously in the health field because she’s got a lot of experience,” said Murray Superintendent Alan Miller. “She’s a tremendous asset to our community for

Where it all began What first brought Klein to Murray 50 years ago? Originally, she was raised in What Cheer. However, her mother accepted a principal position in the school district and Klein spent her freshman

Then, Klein spent her last two years of high school in What Cheer.

What brought Klein back to Murray after that? In simplest terms, she married her high school sweetheart and KLEIN | 4

Jo Ann passed from this life on Friday, April 22, 2016, at Clarke County Hospital in Osceola. She was laid to rest in Van Wert Cemetery at Van Wert on April 23, 2016.

Jack and Ann established his accounting firm, Freundl Company, in Osceola in 1951, working with clients throughout central and southern Iowa. He served in an advisory capacity to the Internal Revenue Service, and is past president of the Iowa Society of Public Accounting Practitioners. He was also past president of his community Lion’s Club and member of the Knights of Columbus, American Legion, and VFW. He helped develop the

Ronda and daughter Shiela. Jo Ann loved her family and family gatherings.

She loved working in her beautiful flower gardens.

She was talented in making quilts, afghans and doilies.

Jo Ann was quick with humor to make people laugh, often surprising them with what she might say. She was also able to play almost any stringed instrument. If she didn’t know how, she could soon teach herself without any formal lessons. She had a true ear for music.

When it came to Jo Ann’s family it really had nothing to do with what your name was or who your parents were. If you were going to be alone for a holiday, Jo Ann welcomed you with open arms. Jo Ann’s greatest joy was to give someone a family or even better yet, to share the one she was so proud of ... her own.

Preceding her in death were her parents; her infant son Ricky in 1960; grandson Todd Wengryn and siblings, Jean, Betty, Allen, Deloris, Iona and Everett.

Jo Ann is survived by her husband Ron Parmer of Osceola; children, Perry and Kay Parmer of Woodburn, Ronda and Daryl Nerness

of Osceola and Shiela and David “Pud” Buckingham of Weldon; 14 grandchildren; a growing number of great-grandchildren; nieces and nephews and other relatives and friends.

Throughout the next 50 years, students, staff and other motivations have kept Klein happy in her school nursing position.

Some of Klein’s former students are now the parents and even grandparents of her current students. She’s had experiences of students saying their grandmother remembers her.

It’s what she loves One thing Klein really enjoys about her job is everyday there is something different going on. She recalled a recent school field trip of her students going to Brush College and touring the country school house.

BACK IN TIME New snow plow

By Marie White

Clarke County Historical Society

Shoveling snow from the roads seemed to keep the farmer busy. As soon as they got the roads opened up, another snow came and they had to do it all over again.

In 1929, a new snow plow came into Clarke County from Lucas County. It threw snow off the road, widened drifts and opened the state highways. The new plow was borrowed from northern Iowa where it was used in the territory around Fort Dodge.

The stream of snow shooting out of the blower carried a piece of ice through the front window of a home east of Osceola and covered the inside of the room with snow one night. The family was awakened by the crash and

noise of the machine, which resembled the roar of an airplane motor.

The machine, a rotary Snogo, looked at night, from a distance, like a fire. The column of snow shooting out and the lights giving it a reddish tinge like fire and smoke. As drivers came closer to the unusual sight, they couldn’t tell what it was. The column of snow shot into the fields for a distance of several hundred feet.

The machine cut a swatch eight feet wide to within a few inches of the ground through drifts as deep as six feet. It was mounted on a truck chassis with the plow in front and the motor at the rear of the cab. The radiator of the huge six cylinder power plant pointed to the rear.

The snow-cleaning apparatus consisted of two rotary screws, one above the other, which car-

ried the snow to the blower apparatus and a huge fan that revolved at a high speed and blew the snow through a spout that could be pointed to either side of the road.

The plow couldn’t be used in town and was used carefully in front of farm homes when they could be seen, but the earlier night, the operator couldn’t see the house.

The plow had been used to clear drifts on other highways and it was said that several houses had windows broken.

At night, the operator could only see to one side and straight ahead. Three spot lights on the cab furnished the light for night driving.

The visiting plow blew a gasket and was later repaired. It was said this district could have one of the new plows in another year or two.

Meet new Osceola mayor Thomas J. Kedley In the last city elections, Osceola selected a new mayor with a bright vision for the city’s future.

Have you met Mayor Thomas J. Kedley yet? Here is a quick snapshot of your newest city official.

Kedley grew up in Clinton and was strongly involved with the parks and recreation department, helped run the pool in the summer, local rec center during winter and coaching younger children even as a teenager.

He met his wife Becca while they were both pur- Kedley suing degrees at the University of Northern Iowa.

Along with their dog, Miss Penny Lane, they came to Osceola after finding teaching positions.

With a campaign slogan of, “Respecting tradition, changing the status quo,” Kedley loves it here in Osceola. He came to Clarke Community Schools as the technology integrationist and TAG teacher, and was instrumental in the iPad roll out that has been a success for the school district.

Within a year, he had accepted a new position as the U.S. and world geography teacher for grades 7-12.

From there, it was a small step to take from being involved in the community as a teacher and coach to volunteering with Osceola Chamber/Main Street and other local functions.

When former mayor Fred Diehl decided not to run for re-election, Kedley knew this was his chance to feed his passion for politics and to help Osceola reach its full

potential as Iowa’s “hidden gold mine.”

The new mayor believes the city is on the verge of booming, with its small-town atmosphere, close proximity to Des Moines, and extensive Amtrak service both east and west. Plus, sitting in the hub of Interstate 35 and Highways 34 and 69, it’s just a matter of time before the secret of Osceola life gets out.

Since taking office in January, Mayor Kedley has been out in the community, talking to Osceola residents, and working diligently toward the three pillars on which he ran his campaign: 1. Increasing quality of life for all Osceola citizens through improvements that would make a family want to move to and stay in Osceola. The most important projects being worked on include building a community recreation center, expanding the trail systems, and building youth programs.

2. Updating and maintaining city infrastructure and all city facilities.

3. Providing a single source of safe, quality drinking water for all of Osceola’s citizens.

“My role as mayor is really similar to my role as a teacher,” Kedley said. “It’s all about compromise, about making sure everyone gets heard and that the solutions bring the greatest outcome for everybody. We’re here to work together toward the best future of Osceola and all its citizens.”

If you have any questions or concerns for your new mayor, call him at (563) 249-1330 or visit him at city hall.

Pictured is the Ehrhardt family.

Bank scholarships fund siblings’ education As their last child graduates from high school this year, the Ehrhardts can be proud of their family’s hard work and their children’s academic success.

All three of Jeff and Lori Ehrhardt’s children — Jason, Kelli and most recently, Taylor — won Clarke County State Bank’s (CCSB) scholarships.

CCSB’S Alumni checking accounts are designed to teach teenagers to manage a checkbook and a debit card before graduating from high school.

Banking Buddies savings accounts help parents teach young children to start saving early.

Both Alumni and Banking Buddies accounts offer the opportunity for children in sixth and 12th grades to win a $750 scholarship. Through these pro-

grams, the Ehrhardt children have earned more than $2,000 in scholarships from Clarke County State Bank.

Jeff and Lori Ehrhardt have taught at Clarke Community Middle School for more than 15 years. They each attended college and wanted their three children to earn degrees, as well.

They opened Banking Buddies savings accounts for each of their children when they were toddlers. The Ehrhardts believe a college education is a vital step for success, so they wanted to make that step as accessible as possible for their young children.

It’s paying off as their second child Kelli graduates from college this spring.

“The scholarship program is

one way we’re able to contribute to the success of families in South Central Iowa. Jeff and Lori Ehrhardt have provided their children with a great example of what it takes to be financially responsible and successful,” said Dave Selene, president of Clarke County State Bank, “We’re happy to be a part of their success.”

The personal bankers at Clarke County State Bank are happy to work with toddlers, teenagers, parents and siblings to help even the youngest account holders find their path to success.

Since inception, Clarke County State Bank scholarship programs have provided nearly $50,000 in scholarships to students of south central Iowa.

Clarke explodes in sixth inning for SCC win Indians baseball competitive, fall just short in SCC loss

By SCOTT VICKER

OST managing editor svicker@osceolaiowa.com

It took the Clarke softball team six innings, but it finally got its offense going on May 25 in a 7-2 win over Chariton in South Central Conference play.

Chariton took leads of 1-0 and 2-1, with Clarke twice answering a couple of innings after Chariton took the lead.

The Lady Indians then broke through for a five-run sixth inning to put the game away.

Vanessa Bakley’s bunt led to a Chariton error that allowed Sidney Marker to score from second base to give the Lady Indians a 3-2 lead and left runners on second and third.

Amanda Kindred smacked a sacrifice fly to center field to score Ashlynn Oehlert and then Bakley scored on a wild pitch for a 5-2 lead.

Senior Lexy Carson put the

finishing touches on the win with a two-run home run to left field.

“It took us a little while,” Clarke head coach Lindsay Diehl said. “We kept giving things away to kids and didn’t make them work for it. We were giving runs away early, which was frustrating, and weren’t capitalizing on our opportunities when we had runners in scoring position. We did sort of settle in and make some adjustments.”

Sydnee Redman picked up the win in the pitching circle, tossing seven innings and scattering six hits with seven strikeouts and three walks.

Diehl said Redman’s ability to stay calm even with her young defense making several early errors behind her was crucial to the Lady Indians staying in the game.

Chariton had the bases loaded with no outs in the top of the first inning and Redman escaped the inning surrender-

ing only one run.

“She’s so even-keeled when her young defense made a couple of mistakes there and let runners score,” Diehl said.

“She stayed calm and relaxed.

She gained confidence every inning. I was pleased with her performance tonight.”

Clarke left nine runners on base for the game, but Diehl said as her young team gains more experience this year, the offense will start to click.

It’s a different team offensively than what Diehl has had in recent years. There are fewer power threats in the lineup now and more speedy baserunners.

“I’m going to have to change my game plan a little bit. We finally have a lot of speed.

It’s fun to watch them put the pressure on the defense,” Diehl said. “We have young kids that you feel like you get them prepared when I coach them in 14U, and then their heads spin when they get in this situation,

making it a bigger stage than what it is. That’s the best way you learn, is to fail. It’s OK for us to do Redman that.”

Clarke started its season with a 12-0 win over East Union on May 24.

Bakley hit a home run and drove in six runs in a 2-for-2 night at the plate. Marker finished 3-for-3 with four stolen bases. Carson doubled and drove in three runs.

Redman pitched two innings of two-hit ball with five strikeouts and no walks, while Alexis Watson struck out five with one walk in two innings of two-hit ball.

Clarke travels to Ankeny on Friday before playing in the Bondurant-Farrar tournament on Saturday.

Clarke’s baseball team knows it has a chance anytime pitcher Gable Reece is on the mound.

Reece kept the Indians in the game against Chariton on May 25, but the Chargers delivered a late rally that was too much for Clarke to overcome in a 3-1 loss in South Central Conference play.

“Anytime Reece is on the mound, we know he’s going to throw strikes,” said Clarke coach Justin Stoulil.

“We know what we’re going to get out of him.”

The Indians struck first in the second. Billy Otto walked, took second on a passed ball and scored on Conner Deutsch’s base hit.

The Indians kept the lead until the fourth when Chariton tied it up with a run on two hits. Reece escaped unscathed, leaving two runners on base.

Otto singled and took

the fourth, then moved to third on a Deutsch base hit, but the Indians couldn’t come through.

Clarke had threats in the fifth and sixth as well. In the sixth, Marshall Morrison doubled with one out, but was left stranded.

“We had runners on base a few times and couldn’t get them in,” Stoulil said.

Morrision’s hit was a good harbinger of things to come for the freshman.

“We’re expecting good things from him,” Stoulil said. “He’s still adjusting to things.”

Chariton finally got to Reece in the seventh, scoring twice courtesy of a walk, a fielders choice ground ball and a base hit.

The Indians went in order in the bottom of the seventh.

Still, it was a good first step in the home opener.

“We improved from last night (a 10-8 loss at Mount Ayr),” Stoulil said. “We had a much better game.

OST sports editor rkronberg@ osceolaiowa.com

Central Decatur junior Lukas Meyer took away plenty from his two days of playing at the Class 1A boys state golf tournament May 27-28 at the American Legion Memorial Golf Course in Marshalltown.

Meyer placed 51st with a two-day total of 194, carding rounds of 91 and 103.

“It’s a very good experience for me to come up here and play a good course,” Meyer said.

Meyer learned a lot over the two days, lessons he can take back to his team.

“You have to stay relaxed, hit the ball real solid,” he said.

Meyer is only the fourth Central Decatur player to ever make state.

“Qualifying for him and his family is a big deal,” said Central Decatur coach Gary Hayworth. “He had a good weekend. He enjoyed it and his family enjoyed it.”

first day, but struggled early on the second day.

“He played really well the first day,” Hayworth said.

“He started real round but bounced back.”

Meyer’s finish at state sets the tone for next year.

“We’ve never qualified for a team. With everybody back next year, we’ve got a shot,” Meyer said.

The Clarke County Conservation Board would like thank the following for volunteering to help with the 3rd Grade field trip on July 17th at East lake Park: Larry Ward, Ron Harper, Jack McCarl,Tanner Cornelison, KennyWeisburg, Jodi Jacobsen, Bev Seeberger, Spencer Seeberger, Jennifer Miler, Michaela Byers, Shelby Myers, and the Osceola FFA members.

The CCCB would also like to thank the Clarke County Development Corporation for helping them obtain a Community Action Grant to purchase the educational supplies to use on this year’s field trip and field trips in the future.

A special thank you also goes out to Wal-Mart for donating the bait that the students used during the fishing session of the field trip.

This field trip was a huge success thanks to everyone who helped with it and will instill memories for these students for many years!

Betsy was so excited to get home from school that she bounced up and down all the way in the front door of her house. “I had such a GOOD day at school, mom. It was amazing!”

Before her mother had time to ask Betsy about her day, quite another scene unfolded in the living room. Little brother Mikey pushed Betsy out of his way, and Betsy retaliated in the blink of an eye.

She pinched him, and he began to wail loudly. “OK, young lady. That’s it. Go to your room NOW. Right NOW!” Mom wondered, How could things change from great to awful in a matter of seconds?

Betsy stomped her foot in defiance. “But Mo-o-o-o-om!

My TEACHER said I was a GOOD girl. He even gave me a great big gold sticker to PROVE it. Mikey’s the bad one.

Send HIM to HIS room!”

Mikey continued to cry loudly, now clutching his arm where his sister had pinched him.

Mom gathered Mike in her arms and turned to face Betsy. “GO to your ROOM. We’ll talk about this in a minute.” Seeing Betsy hesitate once more, mom pointed down the hall. “NOW!” Betsy went, shaking her head and stomping all the way, muttering “It’s not fair” under her breath — just loudly enough to be heard.

A few minutes later, mom arrived in Betsy’s room. Betsy sat sulking on her bed, hugging her teddy bear. “OK, honey, let’s talk about what ‘good’ REALLY means, OK?” Mom told Betsy how proud she was that she’d earned that big gold star. Then she lifted Betsy’s chin so she could look her right in the eye.

“Here’s the thing: ‘Good’ is as ‘good’ does. Do you know what that means?” Mom took her finger from under Betsy’s chin and waited for her words to sink in. “I think I get it, Mom. Does it mean that I have to ACT like a gold star kid?”

“Exactly. Betsy, we can say we’re good. We can even wave our gold stars around all over the place. But it’s what we do and say that matters most. Honey, do you know any

good kids in your class who didn’t get gold stars today?”

Betsy thought a minute, then nodded her head. “Sure.

Bobby sits right behind me. He always looks for kids who’re new or don’t have any friends.

Then he plays with them and sits by them at lunch and everything. I think that’s REAL good. He has a real neat sticker on his book bag. Wanta know what it says? It says ‘I do because God does’. Cool, huh?”

“Sounds like he’s on to something, doesn’t it? What do you think your next step is, Betsy?”

“Well, OK. I know what Bobby would do, and I guess if I want to be REALLY good I need to go say sorry to Mikey.” With that, she went down the hall to apologize and kiss Mikey’s “pinch-owie.”

Romans 2:28 tells us, “It’s the mark of God on your heart ... recognition comes from God ... ” (The Message version) Betsy learned an important lesson that day. What we say (and the “gold stars” we earn) are important. But what’s even more important is the way we live our lives.

Our thoughts, words, and actions must all demonstrate the “mark of God on our hearts,” which we receive when we commit our lives in discipleship to Christ.

Human recognition is great; it makes us feel valued and appreciated. But, the most important and eternal recognition comes not from human beings, but from God. God created us in His image, and the applause of heaven rings out when we shine from the inside out with the light of God’s Holy Spirit.

Each of our days is full of “next steps” like the one young Betsy took that day. Each step we take should be that which makes us ever stronger disciples of the One who gave His life for us – Jesus, the Christ.

What “next steps” do you need to take in your life so your thoughts, words and actions all demonstrate your discipleship to Christ more fully?

Osceola student receives a nearly full-ride scholarship to Iowa State

Graduates:

Clarke graduates high-five younger students while participating in the first-ever senior walk at Clarke Community Elementary School Friday, May 20. The event included passing through the elementary hallways where seniors were greeted with smiles, high fives, inspirational posters and cheers of congratulations while “Pomp and Circumstance” played over the school’s intercom system. At the end of the senior walk, the class of 2016 met the class of 2028 in the old gym for a picture. The purpose of the picture was for the seniors to help the kindergarten students “Begin with the End in Mind” (Habit 2, The Leader in Me) and think about the goal of graduating from high school. After the senior walk at the elementary, the class of 2016 returned to Clarke’s middle/high school for a second senior walk and were equally greeted enthusiastically by middle school students there.

Ticks are out – keep them off Warmer weather and timely rains mean tickborne disease season is underway in Iowa.

Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) reminds Iowans to protect themselves against tick bites.

Ticks can carry the organisms that cause diseases like Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and Ehrlichiosis.

The best way to prevent tick bites is to avoid wooded and grassy areas, where ticks are usually found. If you do spend time in these areas: • Wear long-sleeved shirts and long, light-colored pants tucked into socks or boots.

• Stay on trails when walking or hiking, and avoid high grass.

• Use insect repellants that contain DEET. Read and follow the label direc-

tions for application. DEET is not recommended for use on children under 2 months of age. For more information on DEET, visit http://wiki.idph.iowa.gov/ Portals/3/userfiles/5/Files/ DEET%20Fact%20sheet. pdf.

• Check yourself, your children and your pets for ticks. Ticks tend to prefer the back of the knee, armpit, scalp, groin, and back of the neck.

If you discover a tick on your body, remove it right away. Folk remedies, such as burning the tick with a match or covering it with petroleum jelly or nail polish, are not effective. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the following instructions for removing a tick: • Carefully grasp the tick by using tweezers to grip the

tick by its mouthparts which are close to the skin. Do not squeeze the tick’s body.

• Pull steadily directly away from your skin. Because removing the tick’s body is your main goal, don’t worry if its mouthparts break off in the process.

• Clean the wound and disinfect the site of the bite.

The most common tickborne disease is Lyme disease; 319 cases of Lyme disease were reported to IDPH in 2015. Not everyone who gets Lyme disease will have the same symptoms, but the best and earliest sign of infection is a rash that may appear within a few days to a month, usually at the site of the tick bite.

The rash will first look like a small, red bump, then expand until it begins to look like a bull’s eye, with

a red center and a red ring surrounding a clear area.

It is important to contact your health care provider immediately if you develop this type of rash or develop flu-like symptoms within a month of having a tick bite or being in an area where ticks are present.

For more information on Lyme disease, visit http:// idph.iowa.gov/cade/disease-information/lyme-disease.

AMES — Recent Clarke Community High School graduate Shahil Bhakta of Osceola received the Bright Scholar of Iowa Scholarship to attend Iowa State University.

Bhakta, who will major in aerospace engineering, is one of 10 Iowa high school students to receive the nearly full-ride scholarship to Iowa State. The scholarship is made possible by the H. Dale and Lois Bright Foundation.

Bright scholarships are given to students who have outstanding academic achievement, demonstrate a commitment to learning and community service and have succeeded in the face of adversity. Preference is given to students whose parents have not graduated from an accredited four-year college or university.

Bright Scholarships — which differ in size depending on a student’s circumstances —cover the full cost of tuition, room and board, and books minus all other grants and scholarships received. The award is renew-
