Vietnam pilots unite over Huey helicopter

The Green County Veterans Memorial Park continues its work with their Vietnam Huey helicopter. Karen Ayres recently inquired about the history on this 513 Huey through the Vietnam Helicopter Pilots Association (VHPA) magazine. Her husband Larry serves as president of Green County Veterans Memorial Park in Monroe and is member of VHPA. The report that Karen received included a listing of crew members, which lead her to finding John Ulsh of South Carolina. This particular 513 helicopter just so happened to be the same one flown by Ulsh during his time in service in 1966.

Since January, the Ayres were in contact with Ulsh, updating him on the work of GCVMP and with the Huey’s restoration. Ulsh’s interest was piqued, and he made plans to travel from his home in South Carolina to Wisconsin to sit in the Huey one last time before its final resting place in the park. He was accompanied by his son, Mark. He finally met Ayres and the

Huey in the helicopter’s current storage unit at Helicopter Specialties, Inc. of Janesville.

Ulsh shared the story of when he left Vietnam. He left behind his 513 Huey, which received devastating fire from the enemy and no longer able to fly. He was shocked to learn that his Huey not only survived, but was now in devoted hands in Wisconsin. He would have never imagined this Huey would become the memorial dream that Ayres and the GCVMP have held for 10 years to the honor the veterans in this park.

Ulsh reminisced over war stories as he sat with Larry inside the Huey after decades of separation from his familiar friend. Ulsh and his son stayed with the Ayres for the weekend with hours of conversation about what they shared in common with the Huey, Vietnam, and their families. A real emotional connection between the two was remarkable, feeling that they were newly found brothers.

The heroes’ legacy lives on in that

both veteran pilots have sons who coincidentally attended flight school at Ft. Rucker in Alabama and both served in Iraq as Blackhawk helicopter pilots.

Stories shared between the two depicted a picture of the lives saved in war by this Huey, the rescues and defense fire performed.

It was obvious that 513 was much more than a vehicle to these two men; it was an old friend.

The Green County Veterans Memorial Park Committee hopes that upon the installation of this Huey, it will be making the same healing connections with other veterans.

With weather and time constraints permitting, the GCVMP is planning on installing the Huey into the park for a dedication on Sunday, Nov. 6, at 1:30 p.m. in honor of Veterans Day. The GCVMP is located on the corner of County N and Hwy. 81 in Pleasant View Park, Monroe.

Over $4,000 raised in Alzheimer’s and Dementia Alliance Tractor Ride

By Siara Schwartzlow EDITOR

Fifty riders braved the rain and the wind to participate in the third annual Alzheimer’s and Dementia Alliance Tractor Ride on Sunday, Sept.

25. The event raised approximately $4,400 for the Alzheimer’s and Dementia Alliance of Wisconsin.

The trip began at the Spring Grove Township building in Brodhead and traveled first to Wood’s Crossing.

“The residents were out waving and smiling,” Fritz Wenger, event organizer, said. “I believe they enjoyed the tractor parade.”

Following the stop at Wood’s Crossing, the ride headed toward the Brodhead Airport. “Everybody was really impressed with the airplanes and the information and how rare those airplanes are,” Wenger said.

“We take for granted seeing them flying around.”

Wenger also noted that participants were able to admire old, steel-wheel tractors at the airport.

The tractor ride then moved on to Albany, where participants enjoyed a lunch at the American Legion. Following, the ride returned to Brodhead. “Everybody had a good time,” Wenger said. “Even with the rain, when we got back, everybody said, ‘This will be one we’ll never forget!’”

Event T-shirts and hats are still available for purchase. Short-sleeve or long-sleeve shirts cost $20, and

hats cost $12. Anyone interested in purchasing a shirt or a hat should contact Wenger at 608-214-4371.

Wenger, along with a committee of organizers, would like to thank all of the sponsors who contributed to the cause and helped to make this year’s ride possible. The committee will begin planning next year’s ride in the spring. Anyone wishing to assist in the planning and organization should contact Wenger.

SALT AND HEADACHES

Cutting back on salt helps lower blood pressure, but it also may help reduce the occurrence of headaches, especially in those with hypertension. Researchers reviewed data from a study that assigned 390 people with high blood pressure or prehypertension to diets that were either high-sodium (3,300 mg/ day), medium-sodium (2,400 mg/day) or low-sodium (1,500 mg/day) for 30 days. Study participants were about 30% less likely to record having a headache while on the low-sodium diet than when they were eating the high-sodium one. The results don’t prove cause-and-effect, only an association.

Heather Ross and her first-grade class.

Heather Ross joins Juda School staff

By Aurora Daniels CORRESPONDENT

Juda School has welcomed a new elementary teacher this year, Heather Ross. Ross grew up in Juda and graduated from Juda School in 1999. She then continued her education and attended UW-Whitewater to pursue a degree in Elementary/Middle school education with a minor in English Education. She got her first teaching position in 2004 as an eighth-grade communication arts teacher at Franklin Middle School in Janesville. While working as a communication arts teacher, she attained her master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Viterbo University.

In 2008, during the time when she was working at Franklin Middle School, Ross was named the Janesville School District Middle School Teacher of the Year. She later transferred to Janesville’s Adams Elementary School in 2009, where she taught second grade for eight years. She was also the second- and third-grade unit leader, a Talented and Gifted Advocate, and a member of the PBIS team.

At the end of the last school

SCALLOPED POTATOES AND HAM DINNER The Juda Booster Club is holding their annual Scalloped Potatoes and Ham dinner on Thursday, Nov. 10, the night of parent-teacher conferences. The dinner will also include bread, butter, green beans, apple crisp, and milk. The cost is $6 for adults at the door and $3 for children under 10. Tickets are sold at the Bank of Juda and the school office, and adult tickets are $5 if bought before the night of the dinner.

SENIOR OF THE WEEK The senior of the week is Cierra Stading. She is planning on attending Blackhawk Tech after graduation. Her favorite high school memory is when the girls’ basketball team won the first regional title in school history. This is her advice to younger high school students: “Don’t let others get into your head.” Her role model is Mrs. Elmer, and her favorite high school class is English with Mrs. B. HONORS FLIGHT BUS On Saturday, Oct. 22, the Juda Forefathers and the Juda Recreation District are sponsoring a Welcome Home bus to the Madison airport to welcome home veterans who participated in that day’s Honors Flight. The bus will leave at 6:30 p.m. To sign up to

year, Ross discovered the job opening at Juda School and decided to apply for the position.

“I applied, interviewed, and was fortunate enough to be offered the job.

I am thrilled to be back in Juda Heather Ross teaching first grade,” Ross said.

When she was a student at Juda High School, she demonstrated the same skills that make her the wonderful teacher she is today. “She was a hardworking and very organized student, so when I went to the first-grade room today and saw the learning objectives on the board, I was not surprised,” said Brenda Bredeson, Juda High School English teacher. Bredeson had Ross as a student. Mrs. Bredeson added, “She always did everything to the best of her ability and turned in exemplary work. Her classroom illustrates that she works to find excellent resources and has amazing organization skills.”

Ross is one of several former Juda School students who returned to participate in this generation’s education. Superintendent Traci Davis, physical education teacher Kurtis Mansfield, fourth-grade teacher Penny Ramos, secretary Traci Lincoln, bookkeeper Pam Green, maintenance director Phil Trotter, and educational assistant Carrie Soddy are all former Juda School students who are now part of the staff working alongside Ross.

“Mrs. Ross is a wonderful addition to the Juda Staff,” superintendent Traci Davis said. “She comes with a wealth of experience and knowledge that she will use to help all of our students succeed.”

Ross married her high school sweetheart, Brian, who also attended Juda School. They have been married for 13 years and have three children, and they live in Evansville. She enjoys spending time with her family at their cabin, golfing, going to the zoo, watching movies, and doing crafts. Those crafts are, of course, for her students who will learn many things from her at Juda School.

Green County panel keeps proposed water study afloat CORRESPONDENT

Green County Board is getting a second chance to commission a water resources study in the 2017 budget process this month and next.

Elected supervisors to the board’s finance committee voted unanimously two weeks ago to include about $75,000 in next year’s budget for the study.

Mapping and study of the county’s underground water resources to guide development fell one vote shy of approval in March.

Adding the project in the middle of a budget year required two-thirds approval of the county’s 31 supervisors. The plan also needed recommendations of both Land and Water Conservation and Finance committees.

Supporters of a hydrogeologic atlas for Green County’s unique terrain and vital clean water sources say the present process is different.

They’re seeking citizen support for the county to undertake the study.

Erica Roth, elected in April to serve Town of Albany residents in District 24 of the count board, welcomed finance members’ inclusion of the study in the budget.

“It’s important to me. When I was campaigning for office and went to hundreds of homes in my district, it was overwhelmingly apparent that this issue is on people’s minds,” Roth said in an interview last week.

“People I’ve spoken with in District 24 – and around the county, too – want this study,” she said.

“Personally, I have a science background, and the more information, the better. I want this study, too.”

Roth won her seat on county board with more than 60 percent of the vote over an incumbent who was one of eight supervisors opposed to the study last March. Two supervisors were absent from the meeting.

That left 20 supervisors who sup-

ported adding the study to the 2016 budget one vote short of passage.

Roth and Land and Water Conservation Committee members Oscar Olson and Kristi Leonard spoke for the hydrogeologic study at the finance hearing last week.

With full finance committee support for the study in a new budget, Roth said, the proposal now needs only a simple majority in a county board vote.

Madeline Gotkowitz, state hydrogeologist with the Wisconsin Geologic and Natural History Survey made the first pitch for the study in a series of meetings that began last year.

Her proposed three-year study of the county’s water table, bedrock, groundwater recharge and contaminant susceptibility would have cost $105,000.

Gotkowitz, however, had obtained permission from the state to put a portion of her own salary (worth $24,000) toward the overall cost. She also told Green County committees and the board they could spread the cost over three years, and she agreed county staff could help with the study to cut overall costs.

“I think people in our county are going to be pleased with the new bid and proposal,” Roth said, “because this is going to cost substantially less – under $75,000.

“It will take less time to get the information, too, less than the original bid – one year instead of three,” she said.

Supervisors on the full board will receive the finance committee’s proposed budget in their monthly meeting Wednesday, Oct. 18. They’ll have three weeks to review the line item with the 2017 budget, then vote on the measures Wednesday, Nov. 9 – one day following the general election.

Green County revenue sources (including its general fund, highway,

human services, Pleasant View nursing home, landfill and a revolving loan fund budgets) are helping meet nearly $47 million in expenditures in 2016.

About $540,000 of that total is coming from surplus funds.

In spreading the original cost of the study over three years, proponents of the water study said the cost to Green County residents would have run less than $30,000 a year or less than $1 per person.

About 120 people filled Green County courthouse’s gallery in Monroe for the failed vote on the hydrogeologic study last March.

Carrying placards and blue balloons, the number of citizens present overwhelmingly supported the proposed study as a tool to protect water.

Drinking water is already at dangerous nitrate levels in Green County, with 16 percent of water samples testing unsafe.

Despite Karst geologic features, including shallow, fractured bedrock, vulnerable springs, and highly

Tree and shrub sale happening now The Rock County Land Conservation Department is taking orders now for its yearly tree and shrub sale. Inventory of trees and shrubs is limited, so order early for the best selection.

the state say hydrogeologic maps and studies help them protect local ground and surface water and guide safe siting of all sorts of development, from subdivision, to industrial parks, to big dairies.

Pinnacle Dairy’s design engineers in their permit applications to site a 5,800-cow dairy in eastern Green County had to cite hydrogeologic studies from Dane and Rock counties, said Gotkowitz. There is no study of Green County’s ground water flow, depth to bedrock, or presence of fractured rock and fissures, she told the board last March.

LBG is a groundwater and environmental engineering service founded in 1944 and based in St. Paul. It staffs 19 offices in 15 states.

First known as Travelers Research Corporation, TRC Environmental evolved over its 40-year life into an engineering, consulting and construction management firm. It claims 4,100 technical professionals and support staff at more than 120 offices nationally.

With an office in Madison, TRC helped Green County through its landfill permit process in the 1980s.

It has provided scientific and environmental services to diverse utility, government agency, military, and industrial clients since the 1960s.

TRC’s bid to conduct a hydrogeologic study for Green County has been recommended by committee to the full board in the 2017 budget.

If approved, Jenson will administer TRC in the project, in addition to his other Land and Water Conservation budget and duties.

variable water tables, the county lacks an atlas to guide siting of all types of development.

“Green County is part of the belt of Karst geology of limestone and dolomite,” Gotkowitz told the board last March, displaying a map of the Ice Age formation covering 40 percent of Wisconsin.

“More of that type of formation is closer to the surface in Karst areas. The groundwater is less naturally protected,” she said before the March vote.

County Conservationist Todd Jenson presented two private company bids from Leggette, Brashears and Graham Inc. (LBG) and TRC Environmental Corporation to the finance committee two weeks ago.

Gotkowitz was compelled to withdraw her original bid to conduct the study. State rules bar public competition with the private sector.

The new hydrogeologic study proposal expects to achieve horizontal accuracy within 100 feet, said Roth, who has read and closely compared the two bids on the project. Gotkowitz told the board last March that her study would achieve accuracy of a little less than 170 feet.

Presently, state maps, which did not study Green County geologic and water features closely, have an accuracy only of 1,700 feet.

The proposed water and geology study would guide developers in siting and design work for all types of uses – from underground fuel tanks, to septics and wells, to large waste containment structures.

A grass fire gets out of hand, threatening farm buildings and homes.

People are trapped in a vehicle after a bad wreck on a country highway.

Someone has fallen, and there’s no one at hand capable of lifting the person or administering aid.

Brodhead Fire Department volunteers and first-responders have answered such calls totaling more than 125 incidents annually since 2007.

Scattered incidents in five surrounding townships as well as the city of Brodhead hit a low of 129 in 2013 following a six-year high of 163 in 2012.

Incidents have appeared to be on the upswing since. Yet rural leaders who must ensure fire and emergency services from the city to township residents say a district organized in March 2013 is helping meet the need.

“A majority of the commissions – three rural and three city – have the same goal,” said Ron Schwartzlow, who led Brodhead Fire Commission as its first president for 3 years.

“We all want the best possible fire and first-responder protection we can get for as reasonable dollar amount possible,” Schwartzlow said in an interview Friday, Oct. 7.

“The reason the fire district was organized was that the rural association wanted some say in the city fire and rescue services provided. The commission and fire district have given us that say.”

Members of the rural association, including Magnolia, Spring Valley and Avon townships in Rock County, and Spring Grove and Decatur townships in Green County, elect three representatives to two-year terms on the fire commission. They serve with three City of Brodhead representatives.

who undergo extensive training required of volunteers find full-time paid positions with large city fire departments. Even volunteers with non-fire careers and vocations at times have to move with their work away from the area.

“The biggest challenge is that many people here work out of town during the week, and during the day is our biggest crunch time,” he said. “They are able to answer fire calls in the evening and on weekends, but not from jobs during the day out of town.

“I’d like to voice appreciation for the local businesses that employ our volunteer firefighters and allow them to leave work when the fire alarm calls them to duty. We absolutely couldn’t function without this public service.”

Leadership for Brodhead Fire Commission quietly changed hands as it entered a fourth year in service this past June.

Steve Hazeltine, who chairs Spring Valley Town Board of Supervisors, was elected to take Schwartzlow’s office as president on the fire commission.

“Ron did an excellent job as first president,” said Hazeltine. “He put a tremendous amount of time and effort into getting the fire commission and district organized and running.

“The fire commission meets the first Tuesday of each month at 6 p.m. in the Brodhead Fire Station, and the public is welcomed to attend,” Hazeltine said.

“We all want to provide the best fire protection possible. With the fire district, I think there’s more input in the operation than there was previously.

The percent of evaluation, rural to city, is pretty equal. It gives an equal voice in fire and emergency services provided.”

Fire district brings in new engine

By Siara Schwartzlow EDITOR

The Brodhead Fire District received a new engine last summer.

The Engine 1 replaced a 1988 Mack Pumper that lacked sufficient safety features to keep the fire district in compliance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

“It is a milestone reached for Brodhead Fire,” said Tony Zimmerman, lieutenant and training officer with the Brodhead Fire District. Zimmerman said the older trucks were beginning to show their ages. “When the call comes in, we need the peace of mind that all equipment is in top shape and ready to go to provide the best service possible to the citizens we serve.”

The fire district’s new model is equipped with state-of-the-art safety features including full frontal, side roll, and collision airbags. It also features a 750-gallon water tank, a 1,750-gallon-per-minute pump, a new Ultra High Pressure fire suppression system, and seating for six.

The fire suppression system has a major impact in terms of efficiency. “It uses much less water, extinguishes most fires more efficiently than conventional methods, and is much less physically taxing on firefighters,” Zimmerman said.

Albany holds Fall Festival

By Beth Blakemore CORRESPONDENT

Albany’s Fall Festival was held on Saturday, Oct. 1, on Water Street downtown. Twenty vendors selling crafts, baked goods, books, photos, maple syrup, jams and jellies, gift items, vegetables, jewelry, and much more attracted people from the local area to do some shopping.

Food was available at a food truck, a bake sale, and at the chili cook-off in which four pots of chili competed.

Derek Nickols won the Judge’s Choice award, and Julie Grosz won the People’s Choice.

During the festival, the Downtown Reunion took place, as well. “Former downtown business owners and workers and members of the Downtown Revitalization Committee were invited,” according to Catherine Blakemore, who was in charge of the reunion and the venders at the festival. Twentythree participants attended the reunion, along with their eleven guests.

velopment, under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. La Crosse County is certifying to HUD that La Crosse County and chief executive officer, in her official capacity as County Board Chair consent to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to environmental reviews, decision making and action; and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The legal effect of the certification is that upon its approval La Crosse County may use the Community Development Block Grant funds and La Crosse County will have satisfied its responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. DOAERCE-DOH will accept an objection to its approval of the release of funds and acceptance of the certification only if: (a) the certification was not in fact executed by the chief executive officer or other officer of applicant approved by DOAERCE-DOH; or (b) the applicant’s environmental review record for the project indicates omission of a required decision, finding, or step applicable to the project in the environmental review process. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedure (24 CFR Part 58) and may be addressed to: Wisconsin Department of Administration, Division of Energy, Housing and Community Resources, P.O. Box 7970, Madison, Wisconsin, 53707-7970.

Pretty girl Truffles will melt into your lap.

Pet of the Week

Truffles is a three-year-old domestic longhair cat. She is beautiful, and she knows it.

This angelic sweetheart has a loving spirit to go along with her gorgeous appearance. Truffles may be a bit shy when it comes to leaving her familiar spaces, but she will instantly turn into a puddle of fluff the moment you give her attention.

This silver-haired feline is cautious when it comes to other cats, but otherwise has an exceptionally polite personality and an easy-going attitude.

The shelter is closed on Mondays, Tuesdays, and all holidays, with afternoon hours only Wednesday through Sunday. See website: www.greencoun-

tyhumane.org for new arrivals of cats and dogs, adoption fees, and upcoming events.

The shelter’s material needs include: For the Dogs: hot dogs, canned dog food, Mounds Dog Power, rawhide retriever sticks, Kongs, Frisbees, tennis balls, and peanut butter.

For the Cats: Kitten Milk (formula), Mounds Purrfect Cat, and canned cat food.

Misc Supplies: laundry detergent, Dawn Dish Soap, Clorox Bleach, paper towels, stamps, copy paper, hand sanitizer, aluminum cans, and hand soap.

Green County Board Updates

By Erica Roth

BOARD SUPERVISOR

Wow. I recently realized that I have been a County Board Supervisor for six months now. It doesn’t seem that long, and at the same time, looking back, a lot has happened.

I have learned volumes but there is still so much to learn and I am trying my hardest to learn it all.

Back in April, just a couple weeks after swearing in, I attended a workshop put on by the UW Extension for county officials. It covered a lot of information and has been invaluable to me as a new county official.

In the last week of September, I was lucky enough to attend the Wisconsin Counties Association annual conference in Milwaukee. As a new County Board Supervisor, my conference admission was free; I took advantage of this learning and networking opportunity. Amazing.

The wealth of information and connections I was able to make during the three days I was there is immeasurable, and I’ve already put them to work! I am pleased to report that three other Green County Board Supervisors were there as well, working to be the best supervisors they can be for you!

I have just one update for you right now, and it is regarding the hydrogeologic study out of the Land and Water Conservation Committee.

I reported a few weeks back that the Land and Water Conservation Committee voted down bids for the study in a 3-3 vote. It has been pretty obvi-

ous that a majority of Green County residents would like the study completed for the health, safety, and prosperity of our land and community. Thus, during the Finance Committee hearing for Land and Water - part of the budgeting process - the funds for the study were put into the budget for Land and Water as a special project. The Finance Committee voted unanimously after a thorough discussion. This is excellent news for the future of our county and for the residents who want to keep our water and future as clean as possible.

The study is not a sure thing yet.

It is now in the proposed 2017 budget, but the budget still needs to pass the board. The County Board will be voting on and passing the 2017 budget at the Nov. 9 County Board meeting. Call your Supervisor and express your opinion on this matter.

Reach out and let him or her know you would like it to remain in the budget.

Please continue talking with your supervisor and your friends and neighbors about the issues and concerns of Green County. Through shared information, we can all be informed and more effective at keeping Green County such a wonderful place to live and work.

Find out who your supervisor is and how to contact him or her at www.co.green.wi.gov.

Feel free to contact me at EricaRothGreenCountyBoard@gmail. com or 608-371-9074. I look forward to talking with you!

Students studying digital citizenship Parkview JR/SR High is teaching digital citizenship in homerooms once a month during the 2016-2017 school year.

In September, grades seven and eight covered “Digital Life,” including leaning about the 24/7, social nature of digital media; exploring their digital lives; and learning that it is important to act responsibly when carrying out relationships over digital media.

Grades nine through twelve learned about “My Online Code.”

This included understanding the concept of online ethics as it ap-

pears in four key areas, defining digital citizenship and identifying their online responsibilities, and exploring online ethics by analyzing a mock social networking page. The high school presentation was put together by teacher Kim Johnson, using materials provided by Common Sense Education, the program being used for the digital citizenship lessons.

In October, seventh- and eighthgrade will be discussing cyberbullying, and high school students will discuss the question, “Who are you online?”

Margaret was united in marriage to Clyde G. Davis on Feb. 21, 1940, in Dubuque, Iowa. Margaret and Clyde farmed in Spring Grove Township for many years, and Margaret also worked at Advance Transformer and Swiss Colony. She was a long-time member of Oakley Union United Methodist Church and loved spending time with Clyde at their cabin on Lake Chetac in Birchwood, Wis. Her greatest passion was family, especially her grandchildren.

Pastor’s Corner

By Peder Johanson

BETHLEHEM LUTHERAN

The presidential election is always a big deal in our society, and as long as I have been paying attention, it has always entrenched opposing sides of the electorate, hardening our lines of division and disdain among us, and there always seems to be a good dose of fear driving the division. It is a painful process to participants and observers alike.

I’ll leave it to others to write about the actual political and historical significance of the current campaigns and upcoming election and just get to my point for the purpose of this column: with this, as in many prior elections, there is a lot of fear swirling around us.

In a recent radio program featuring interviews with a variety of voters, I heard one interviewee reluctantly admit on-air that he was considering joining a local militia to be prepared for “the war that is going to happen...when the true patriots rise up to overthrow the government.” It was quite a statement and has stuck with me.

It was not so much the extreme nature of the suggestion or my struggle to understand how such a thing could or would actually play

out, but the stark display of fear that troubles me. This person (and evidently, many others) is truly afraid. He did not say which side he would fight on and did not present this “war” as something he was excited about, just that he believes it is coming, is genuinely afraid, and wants to “be prepared.”

After feeling a pang of sadness upon hearing his interview, I immediately thought of Jesus’s words in Mark 13 (also Matthew 24 and Luke 21) as he speaks comfort to the time “when you [will] hear of wars and rumors of wars.” “Do not be afraid” he says. He goes on to tell his disciples that in such times of social unrest, destruction, fear, and distrust, they will have an opportunity to give testimony and proclaim the good news.

This section of the gospel includes a lot of wild talk about the end times (and I am not suggesting that this is it!) but in a strange way also speaks a word of hope to the faithful as they face the challenge of waiting for God’s promise to be fully realized. It is a word of hope to those who are uncertain, disillusioned, and afraid. It says to the faithful that there will be hard times. There will be injustice. There will be unbearable sadness and bit-

for Martin Automatic in Rockford, Ill., for 27 years. He was a U.S. Army Veteran and a life member of the Brodhead VFW Post 6858. Puss enjoyed hunting, fishing, and singing.

He is survived by his wife, Elaine, Brodhead; step-son Jon (Elizabeth Stelzer) Payne, Brodhead; siblings, Franklin (Sandy) Steiner, Freeport, Ill., Kenneth Steiner, Terre Haute, Ind., Carol (Gerald) Olsen, Davis, Ill.; grandson, Caden Payne; and several nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents and a sister-in-law, Bethel.

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m., on Friday, Oct. 14, at the D.L. Newcomer Funeral Home in Brodhead. Burial will be in the Avon Community Cemetery in rural Brodhead. A visitation will be held on Friday from 9:30 a.m. until time of services at the funeral home.

ter brokenness. There will be hopelessness and fear as you wait for the fullness of God’s new creation.

There will be wars and rumors of wars...but do not be afraid. This will be the time for your faith to shine.

I do not know the faith of the man in that radio interview, but I do know many faithful people who are concerned over the election, over civil unrest, and over challenges in their personal lives. I do know that there is more than enough fear swirling around us to steal our joy and hope and to weaken our faith in God’s promise and in the goodness of humanity. To such people and to such times, Jesus says always once more, “Do not be afraid.”

Do not be afraid, believers, and do not lose hope, even amidst wars and rumors of wars. More than that, let God’s promise change your perspective to see this fear and trouble as an opportunity to share the good news of God’s hope and wholeness.

Speak it aloud. Proclaim it. Testify to one another and to those in fear and despair what you know in faith to be true; God is with us in this world with endless grace, and God is making us new this and every day. Now is a pretty good time for our nation to hear such good news.

Will you join the chorus?

the Brooklyn Police Department, Brooklyn EMS, and the Brooklyn Fire Department, responded to the West 1700 block of State Highway 92 in the Town of Brooklyn for the report of a two-vehicle crash with injuries.

An investigation revealed that Robert M. Harried, 23, of Edgerton, was eastbound on State Highway 92 when he crossed the centerline due to looking for his cell phone. Audrey J. Holland, 70, of Brooklyn, was westbound on State Highway 92 when she observed Harried enter the westbound lane.

She attempted to avoid a collision by swerving into the eastbound lane. At the same time,Harried swerved back into the eastbound lane, and the crash occurred.

Holland was wearing her seatbelt, and the air bags deployed in her vehicle. Holland was injured in the crash and was transported

by EMS to a local hospital. Her vehicle sustained very severe damage and was towed from the scene.

Harried was uninjured and was wearing his seatbelt. The airbags deployed in his vehicle. Harried’s vehicle sustained very severe damage and was hauled from the scene.
