Shopping News Photo by Donald Reese The Stevens Fire Company hosted another awesome two-day tractor pull competition recently with a variety of weight classes competing.

MACPA CIRCULATION AUDIT BY

Dona Fay Sweigart, 69, passed away peacefully on Saturday, August 8, 2026. She was born on September 15, 1956, in Ephrata, a daughter of Joan May (Thompson) and the late Dean Vernon Grosteffon. On May 4, 1983, she married Kenneth “Kenny” Sweigart. Dona worked for many years as an accountant for Krown Kitchens and she was a member of the Ladies Auxiliary of Womelsdorf. She was an avid reader and liked to cross stitch, but her great passion was for music, especially country music. She enjoyed making mix CDs of her

favorite singers such as Travis Tritt, Toby Keith and Trace Adkins. As a music lover, she of course loved to dance and

her wheelchair didn’t stop her from moving and swaying to the beat. Left to cherish her memory is her loving husband, Kenny; son, Michael Scott (Gail) Sweigart; her mother, Joan M. Lehmier and stepfather James L. Lehmier; brother, Douglas C. Grosteffon; sister, Susan L. (Edward) Gehr; and three grandchildren. She is preceded in death by a daughter, Stephanie J. Sweigart; father, Dean Grosteffon; paternal grandparents, Stephen and Thelma Grosteffon; maternal grandparents, Elmer and Blanche Thompson; and mother-in-law, Ruth DeLancey. A Celebration of Life for Dona will take place at a later date. Memorial donations may be in Dona’s memory to the National MS Society, P.O. Box 91891, Washington, D.C. 20090-1891.

Say You Saw It In “The Shopping News” - Wednesday, August 19, 2026 - 3A

Paul B. Zimmerman Paul B. Zimmerman, 72, of Bernville, Pennsylvania, went home to be with the Lord on August 7, 2026. Paul is cherished by those who knew him as a faithful husband, father, and devoted man of faith who exemplified quiet wisdom and humility. Born on April 11, 1954, in Brownstown, PA, he was the son of late Aaron and Eva (Burkholder) Zimmerman. Paul’s early years were characterized by hard work and good friends; including making memories of building blue silos, fixing up old cars, hunting trips, and snowmobile rides on his 440. Paul began his endeavor to dairy farm in 1979. It was truly a dream come true in the ‘wild’ country of northern Berks County in the shadow of the Blue Mountains. Most knew him as a farmer who was dedicated, hardworking, and full of God-

ly character. Paul deeply cared for his livestock, family, friends and neighbors. Paul’s life was marked by benevolence and caring for others’ needs with generosity. He himself was a grateful recipient of care from many after experiencing a devastating barn fire in 1990. By the grace of God, Paul’s dreams were not snuffed out, and he was able to rebuild and per-

severe alongside his wife, (Geraldine Hoover). Together, Paul and Geraldine (married January 3, 1976) raised 5 children. Lucille (Wilbur), Roy (Crystal), Dwight (Kathi), Randall (Jessica), and Eric (Naomi). Work hard, play hard was the motto Paul lived by as he stated, “I’ll never want to retire and rot away in my easy chair.” His children fondly remember times backpacking, going on beach trips and cabin vacations, and bike riding countless miles together. Paul always seemed to be in the middle of stories and storytelling. He was “all in” for clamming in the bay, playing ice hockey, canoeing down the Pine, and taking hunting trips with “Pop” at ”Aunt Nettie.” The notorious “Zimmerman laugh” was always heard coming from his direction as he contained a joy that comes from the Lord. His love for farming, John Deere tractors; growing and harvesting has been passed

Rufus Martin Hoover, 99, Lititz, passed away on Saturday, July 25. He was the husband of the late Laura (Wenger) Hoover. He is survived by a son, Kevin Hoover, husband of Beth; three grandchildren; and two sisters: Edna Parr, and Beatrice Weber. He was preceded in death by a daughter, Joy Boone. Sheila M. Verghese, 41,

Leola, passed away on Wednesday, July 29. She is survived by her fiancé, Jonathon Noecker; two sons: Anthony and Isaiah Taylor; and a brother, Samuel Verghese. George A. Hammaker, 77, husband of Barbara (Edwards) Hammaker, Ephrata, passed away on Sunday, August 2. Besides his wife, he is sur-

vived by a son, Richard Hammaker; two daughters: Diane Williams, and Karen Lowenthal; two step-daughters: Kathleen, wife of William Fickes, and Linda Fife; 17 grandchildren; ten greatgrandchildren; a brother, Lloyd, husband of Ann Hammaker; and a sister, Kate Coleman. He was preceded in death by a step-son, Scott Shelly.

down to his children and grandchildren. Paul’s commitment to service was evident in his active participation in his church (Grace Reformed Fellowship) and many other community groups, such as: PA Young Farmers 4-H Dairy Club, Holstein Association, and Farm Bureau. Paul was a faithful servant of the Jesus Christ with a deep love for people. The words “I Love you” were rarely heard from his lips; but his concern and compassion spoke volumes. A man of hard work and virtue, his actions reflected his faith in the Lord. Predeceased are his parents and his son Dale (stillborn). He is survived by his 8 siblings: Vera (Allen Zimmerman), Alta (Edward Lehman), Earl (Brenda Martin), Marvin (Karen Hurst), Ruth Santhea Prak, 72, Leola, passed away on Sunday, August 2. He was preceded in death by his wife. He is survived by a son, Sophornara Prak, Leola; two daughters: Kaliane Prak, Blauvelt, New York, and Raksmey Prak, Fairfax, Virginia; one grandchild; a brother, Silvanno Prak, Lancaster; and a sister, Vancy Schunder, Lancaster.

Es Pennsilfaanisch Deitsch Eck By: The Late C. Richard Beam A collection of “Deitsch Eck” columns from past issues of The Shopping News honoring the late C. Richard Beam.

(Originally published in the July 19, 1989 issue of The Shopping News) WEIBSLEIT STYLES IN DE ALDE ZEIDE (Conclusion) By Jim Brennesel Blossi Aerm, dinni Schtrimp, un nidderi Schuh, Im kalde Wedder hen die Sache viel zu duh Mit der Grankheit weit un breed, As es Land glei butze daed, Kaemde net die gude Dockder graad dazu.

Ich mehn es is nau ganz verschinnert fremm un gwier, Un veleicht scheint’s Ding der same Weg aa zu dir. Anschtatts Gleeder dick un schee Sehnt mer nau nix as wie Beh, Un Gsichder wiescht verfelscht mit rot un gehli Schmier.

J.W.V. *** Bare arms, thin stockings and low shoes, In cold weather these things have much To do with illness far and wide, That would clean out the country If good doctors were not on hand. In the past women made underclothes, Kept themselves warm by day and night. Heavy stockings they knitted, Holes they mended, How they would have laughed about today’s styles! I think it’s mighty strange and queer, And perhaps it looks the same way to you. Instead of clothes heavy and nice Now one sees only legs And faces terribly spoiled with red and yellow smear. Santa Claus explained to me privately That he wasn’t accustomed to such things. In fact he was rather angry And it could happen, who knows, That he might yet proclaim a strike.

Old “clucks” and young girls Should “evolute” back to read common sense! *** As we indicated last week, the January 15, 1926 Ephrata Review clipping of WEIBSLEIT STYLES IN DER ALDE ZEIDE came to us from Magdalene Wenrich of Mohnton, Route 2, and this week our Deitscher Schtrohhut is lifted in salute to Magdalene Wenrich! The J. W. V. above stands for John Wesley von Nieda, who was born at Adamstown on November 15, 1853, the son of a miller. Because of his father’s early death, he received no higher education. After working at several trades, he learned typesetting in 1873, which afforded him an opportunity for further education. Up to 1876, he led a roving life that took him to Rutland, Vermont; Petersburg, Virginia; Trenton, New Jersey and various towns in Pennsylvania. In 1878, he and his brother, Daniel S. von Nieda, founded The Ephrata Saturday Review. Later, he published The Ephrata Reporter in partnership with W. K. Fishburn. For both papers, as well as for the Reading Sunday News, he wrote stories over the pen name of “Jim Bennesel.” His first inspiration came from the dialect letters in E. H. Rauch’s (Pit Schweffelbrenner) “Father Abraham,” published in Lancaster when J. W. von Nieda was a boy. His first stories were short, but as the years went by, he became ambitious and wrote several serials. Since about 1900, he lived in Reading, where up to 1928, he continued to follow his trade as printer. Even in 1931, many old files of J. W. von Nieda’s former papers had disappeared. By a strange coincidence, his writings were discovered by others almost simultaneously. The Lancaster Sunday News of March 15, 1931 carried a long article by H. Clifton Thorbahn, who referred to von Nieda as the “Jules Verne of Pennsylvania Dutch Dialect.” Long before the days of airplanes or submarines, he wrote descriptions of travels under water and through the air. According to the late Dr. Preston A. Barba, who reprinted many of “Jim Brennesel” stories in Es Pennsilfaanisch Deitsch Eck in the Allentown Morning Call, John Wesley von Nieda (1853-1939), next to Charles Moore, was the most prolific writer of fiction in the PA German dialect. We are deeply indebted to Dr. Barba for reprinting many of the stories by “Jim Brennesel.” We did not find WEIBSLEIT STYLES IN DER ALDE ZEIDE in Barba’s Eck, so this may be the first time it has been reprinted since 1926, when it appeared in The Ephrata Review. - We urge those readers who possess clippings of dialect material from older newspapers to carry out a search for additional poems and stories from the pen of Over 10,000 Bolts! John Wesley von Nieda, for he is one of our own Northern Lancaster County originals! We would especially like to Dress, Quilting, 108” Cotton, know whether The Ephrata Review carried an obituary upon Flannel, Fleece, Home Decor, the passing of John Wesley von Nieda.

TIME

Darron Wright Darron Wright, age 17, of Ephrata PA passed peacefully on August 1st, 2026. He was born October 27th 2008. Standing tall at 6-foot-3, he was the true definition of a gentle giant. To know Darron was to know a heart of pure gold! A young man who was exceptionally kind, deeply thoughtful, and unfailingly compassionate. He enjoyed playing video games and making others laugh. There was never a dull moment when it came to his humor. He showed immense strength and determination throughout his life. He will be remembered for his infectious laugh, his witty humor, the way he showed love and protection for the ones he cherished, his kind nature, and his big heart. Although his time with us was short, he leaves behind a legacy of friendships, and unwavering enthusiasm for life. He is survived by his moth-

Biblical Message

A Fool For A Minute Or A Fool For A Lifetime? Author: J. Jefferson “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), ﬁnding out what is acceptable to the Lord.” Ephesians 5:8-10 Roughly 2,500 years ago, the Chinese philosopher known as Confucius, left behind a quote most find worthy of consideration in the realm of learning the will of God. He said, “The man who asks a question is a fool for a minute. The man who does not ask a question is a fool for life.” While Confucius

there are things we do not know which we need to know. Second, we must then admit that someone else knows the things we do not yet know. Third, we must be willing to seek that knowledge in order to obtain it. Such seeking demands asking questions we might feel a bit sheepish for asking, but ask we must because He has promised to supply the wisdom we need if we will (Matthew 5:6; 7:7-11; James 1:5-8). Christianity is a taught religion from beginning to end. One cannot come to the Lord without learning from God (John 6:44-45). The one who has come to Christ through this learning can only grow in their newfound faith by continuing to learn from Him (Matthew 11:2830; 1 Peter 2:2). Such is not an optional matter, as repeatedly the New Testament reveals God’s demand that we grow in His wisdom and knowledge (Ephesians 4:1724; 5:8-10, 15-17; Colossians 1:9-14; 2:1-9; Hebrews 5:11-6:3; 8:8-13; 1 Peter 2:2; 2 Peter 3:14-18; etc.).

was altogether disconnected from the Bible and its precepts, the concept set forth here is critical to our pursuit of the wisdom of God. Better known to our place and time, and saying essentially the same thing is the adage, “The only stupid question is the one not asked.” In the context of biblical studies, it is imperative to have the healthy kind of curiosity that leads us deeper into the book. The process is demanding for sure, but the rewards far outstrip the cost. One element that can stymie our pursuit of and growth in that knowledge is letting fear of embarrassment or rejection keep us from asking the questions that come to our minds. There may be any number of reasons why a person would not ask the question, but whatever the reason, we must abandon such ideas. One of my former instructors repeatedly impressed upon us that learning is itself an exercise in humility. His rationale was multifaceted. First, before we can learn anything we must admit that

More can be said about this essential element of Christian faith, but this is sufficient to impress upon us the imperative that we learn from Him. There are enough natural impediments to growth which are beyond our control. For this, we cannot allow any controllable factor to limit our potential for growth in the knowledge of His will. So, when it comes to obtaining the knowledge of His will and ways, we can ask the question and be a fool for a moment, or we can refuse to ask and be a fool for life. This choice will ultimately determine our eternity, so let’s be fools for a moment in pursuit of His wisdom.

As the world continues to change, we are now completely online with weekly estate/consignment auctions; however, The Shopping News continues to be a valuable asset in print advertisement to direct clients and customers to attend our weekly auctions online. All of our real estate auctions continue to be live and in-person, and again, we couldn’t ask for a better response to advertisements placed in The Shopping News. The world is ever-changing, faster than ever before, but we look forward to many more years of continuing our relationship with The Shopping News, both in print and online!

Art Pannebecker & Brad Wolf Auctioneers Inc. Sales are held at Renninger’s Antique Market, 2500 N. Reading Rd. Denver (Rt. 272) near Adamstown.
