No expiration date for honoring fallen heroes %\ 5$< %$/2*+ 6WDII :ULWHU They “gave their last full measure of devotion” in wars and conflicts across the centuries, and veterans groups around the nation are determined to perpetuate the respect and honor they deserve this Memorial Day. The living faithful place no expiration date on the annual ritual of planting or replacing flags and markers on veterans’ graves. “The willingness of America’s veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude,” said former U.S. Rep. Jeff Miller of Florida. The flags are a poignant and fitting reminder that, as an anonymous author wrote, “our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with
the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it.” Many communities include commemoration of fallen firefighters and law enforcement officers. “We try to put out the flags a few days before Memorial Day,” said Gary Martz, former commander of American Legion Post 154 in Nappanee. “The county, through the Veterans Administration, sends us 700 flags every year. We leave them up until Veterans Day.” Members of the post also replace markers that have been damaged or stolen, often for scrap value, he said. The post keeps an inventory of warspecific markers and even has a supply of Civil War markers. “At 5 p.m. on Wednesday, May 26, we’ll take inventory and replace the markers that
are damaged or gone,” said Martz. “Sometimes the Boy Scouts will volunteer to help. We go to three cemeteries, Union Center, South Union and the cemetery at the Hepton church. The whole process takes three to four hours.” There are several ways individuals, families and businesses can honor veterans this Memorial Day: • Volunteer to lay flowers or plant flags at veterans’ graves. Memorial Day was originally known as Decoration Day, a time to decorate the graves of fallen soldiers with flowers. • Donate to a local veterans organization to defray the costs of the flags and grave markers. • Sponsor a thank-you wreath or bouquet through the Memorial Day Foundation. For information, visit
www.memorialdayfoundation.org. • Help financially and emotionally support bereaved spouses and children of the fallen through www.uso.org or www.taps.org. • Write a thank-you letter to a veteran, personally thank a veteran or post a tribute to a fallen hero on social media. • Observe one minute of silence and reflection during the National Moment of Remembrance at 3 p.m. local time Memorial Day, Monday, May 31. • Fly the American flag according to the rules of proper etiquette found at www.military.com. • Visit a military memorial, museum or monument. • Wear a red poppy, the widely recognized symbol for soldiers who have died in
conflict, taken from the World War I poem, “In Flanders Field,” by Canadian Lt. Col. John McCrae. • Volunteer time at a local veteran’s organization, VA hospital, USO center or homeless shelter. • Attend a religious service to pray for the souls of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, for their family members, for our nation’s future and for peace throughout the world.

“When I began my college career, I had an idea I would be a dentist,” stated Dr. Elizabeth Elliott, Elkhart. “My best friend’s father was a dentist, and I liked my own dentist. I enjoy working with my hands, helping people and getting to know them. Patient experiences should be positive when they come to our office.” Elliott was a psychology major at Indiana University, Bloomington. “I was intrigued by my psychology classes and also knew that if I completed my dental prerequisites, I could apply to dental school.” She went on to Indiana University School of Dentistry, Indianapolis, to earn her dental degree. “As a child, I personally had positive experiences at my dentist’s office. One memorable visit was when I had a baby tooth extracted and I was surprised by the anesthetic. Because of this experience, I try to prepare my patients, so they are not caught off guard when we are treating them,” she added. “I started working at Topping Dental Group in Nappanee this past February.” Elliott spent the previous 26 years as a partner with an office in Elkhart. A typical day for Elliott starts
going to the dentist. Elliott sees this as a challenge. “If I can help a patient feel comfortable in our office while educating and motivating them, those are rewarding aspects of my day.” According to Elliott, a dentist needs to be passionate about what they do. “We need to stay up to date on current technologies and the best practices by being lifelong learners. We also need to be sympathetic, compassionate and enjoy people. A friendly smile also helps.” Elliott believes those interesting in becoming a dentist would do well to shadow a professional. “Through the years, we had Elkhart Central High School students come into our dental office in Elkhart to shadow us. Not all of them went into dentistry. It helps to know what a dentist actually does.” When Elliott was in high school, she worked in a dental lab in Terre Haute. One of her challenges is balancing family life with her career. “I have three kids. They are William, 20, Lauren, 18 and Ethan, 14. I am so thankful for close friends who help with rides to school events and who are there as a support system for our family. Since being in Nappanee, they have helped in this transition.” Running is an activity that helps Elliott clear her mind. “I’ve run one marathon and four halfmarathons in my life. Now I run from 12 to 15 miles a week. It’s my therapy.” Reading and travel are additional hobbies. “I enjoy seeing the U.S. and hiking our national parks. I also love traveling out of the country. I’ve visited the Galapagos Islands, Africa and Greece. I enjoy snow and water skiing, gardening and spending quality time with family and friends.”

The sale has been held for several years with the exception of last year due to COVID-19. A variety of items can be found at the sale including estate items.

Romantic comedy returns after postponement After an emergency postponement, “2 Across” will perform its second weekend at 7:30 p.m. June 4-5, and 3 p.m. June 6 at the Bristol Opera House, 210 E. Vistula St., (SR 120). The show features Colin Rusel and Annette Kaczanowski, and is directed by Kevin Egelsky. Two strangers, a man and a woman, board a San Francisco BART train at 4:30 a.m. They’re alone in the car, each is married, and both are doing The New York Times crossword. She’s an organized, sensible psychologist. He’s a free-spirited, unemployed ad exec. She is a crossword pro; he always quits. When he tosses his puzzle away, she snaps, “Crosswords are a metaphor for life. Those who finish, succeed; those who don’t, fail.” Now he vows to finish. Why? He’s a competitor, and she happens to be lovely. This starts an 80-minute ride described by critics as “hilarious,” “witty,” “romantic,” “poignant,” and “wonderfully entertaining.” Two opposites in an enclosed space, attacking each other’s values but also being swayed and intrigued by them. They each have serious life problems the other helps solve. Their trip is filled with unpredictable but believable surprises, even a passionate embrace or two. As the train ride ends, it’s obvious each of them has been changed for the better. Tickets are students: $15; seniors 62+: $20 and adults: $22 and are available online at elkhartcivictheatre.org/tix. Tickets may also be purchased by phone at (574) 8484116. For 60 years, Elkhart Civic Theatre has been providing highquality theatrical performances from its home base at the historic Bristol Opera House. The company does, however, enjoy the occasional road trip — usually to AACT competitions for community theatres around the country. Over the years, ECT has gained statewide and regional recognition as one of the best community theatres in the Midwest and has taken honors at the national level as well.

Goshen’s Peace Officer Memorial Day celebration was a little different from past years. The event was held Tuesday morning, May 11, rather than in the evening. A smaller crowd turned out in front of the Goshen Police Department and those attending trying to socially distance from one another. Goshen Police Chaplain and senior pastor at First Baptist Church Gregg Lantzen opened the ceremony remarking how Peace Officer Memorial Day, officially May 15, was designated in 1962 by President John F. Kennedy. He then gave the invocation. Goshen Mayor Jeremy Stutsman thanked the officers for the work they do every day with honor and integrity. “Today we pay tribute to those who serve our community,” he said. He made a point to thank the families of the officers for the sacrifice of time lost with family they give while their loved one serves the community. “Goshen can never repay our officers for their service. Nor can we thank them enough,” he said. Sharon Johnson, aunt of Officer Thomas Goodwin, who died in the line of duty Dec. 11, 1999, presented the Thomas Goodwin Scholarship to five students who are planning a career in law enforcement. During the last 20plus years the scholarship has awarded $78,000 to area students. This year there were three scholarship renewals: Jacob Metzler, Conner Grimson and Courten Clark. Along with the renewals two new scholarship recipients were also named: Vincent Ambrose and Katelyn Tinsley. “My family grows every year I do this,” Johnson said. “These kids become like one of my grandkids. I love them and I pray for them daily.” Goshen Police Chief Jose Miller spoke about how during the last year there has been a lot of mistrust of peace officers and Continued on page 7

Goshen celebrates Peace Continued from page 6 the government. “The profession of law enforcement is still noble even with the uncertainty; we still must protect all people,” he said. “We must continue to move forward to be the best we can be.” Detective Shayne Miller read the names of those officers who gave the ultimate sacrifice in 2020-21 throughout the state. They are Chief Dave Hewitt, Switzerland Police Department;
Indiana State Trooper Peter Richard Stephan; Kenneth Lester, Richmond Police Department; Breann Leath, Indianapolis Metro Police Department; and Sgt. TJ Johnson, Charlestown Police Department. Assistant Police Chief Shawn Turner spoke about the thin blue line’s origins and what it means to law enforcement today. The ceremony was closed by Jim Schrock, Goshen Police chap-
lain and associate pastor of First Baptist Church of Goshen, giving the benediction.

(EDITOR’S NOTE: Callers are asked to limit their comments to 150 words and one call per week. ‘the PAPER’ reserves the right to edit comments and make final publishing decisions.)
Boycott MLB Please boycott Major League Baseball everyone! They are an absolutely disgusting and horrible organization. They went way too far when they moved the All Star Game out of Atlanta to protest the new Georgia election laws, which are in no way racist or unfair. First, they moved the game out of a 53% black Atlanta to a 95% white Denver. Does that make any sense? They are estimating close to $150 million is going to be lost in July by not having the game there. It’s a terrible shame for the business owners, many of whom are black, who were going to benefit from it. I am done with MLB. I have been a fan my entire life, played minor league baseball, and been coaching baseball for years now, but I will not support any organization who stabs their fans in the back. Politics do not belong in sports. We should be able to turn on a game and be entertained, not have a far left agenda shoved in your face by someone (commissioner Rob Manfred) who is ignorant and misinformed. Do not support these reverse racists.
Not a Democracy I want to make one thing clear to everyone who is reading this right now. Dementia Joe and the other misled Democrats keep calling the United States of America government a Democracy, but we are not a Democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic. Democracy does not exist in the U.S. It is not mentioned a single time in the Constitution. And any of you who want to argue, please look it up and show me where it says the word Democracy. You can’t.
Sore loser To the author of the submission titled, “Just wrong.” Do everyone a favor and get a grip. It is willfully ignorant to continue to insist on ethereal evidence of fraud in the 2020 election. In more than 60 court appearances Trump’s own legal team was unable to bring any actual evidence to light. Where is the evidence of the thousands of people who said their vote was already cast before they showed up? Why didn’t Trump’s lawyers present this evidence in any of their opportunities in any of those many court appearances? Why didn’t any of the recounts or audits show widespread fraud? Seems to be Trump lost by millions of audited and verified votes, so quit being a sore loser.
No fraud? Another follow up to “Biden really won,” I already proved to you all the evidence about election fraud you said didn’t exist. But I also want you to answer this question for me.
If there was really no fraud in any state, then why is state after state, including Georgia, Texas, Indiana, Tennessee, etc., changing their election laws to help eliminate any future fraud? I also want to make one thing clear about the “controversial” new voter laws in Georgia. There was zero racism in what they passed like the Democrats, media and large corporations falsely claimed. They actually made it easier for Georgians to vote. They now have to show an ID to vote, but if they don’t have one they can get one for free. If they still can’t get one there are at least six other methods of proving their identity. In a world where we have to show an ID to buy beer and cigarettes, pick up will call baseball tickets, get the COVID vaccine, buy a gun, get a loan, etc., you would have to be out of your mind to think it’s racist to make someone to show an ID to do something as important as voting.
Blame game Nobody plays the blame game any better than the Republican Party. For example, just read this column every week and they blame everybody they can think of. They have been playing the blame game for some time now.
Lose our freedom How can Congress remove Chaney from office? I thought it was up to the people who we voted in. And if we don’t like who we voted in we just vote them out the next time but it is not up to Congress to remove our vote. That isn’t right. People better really be watching and seeing what is going because the Democrats are making us more communistic. They are very liberal and we are going to lose our freedoms before it is all over.
Scam alert I was just wanting to put in ‘the PAPER’ about different scams people are doing over the phone. I have been receiving several from area codes 310, 563, 5863, 802 216, even 574 and they are claiming it is Amazon. There is also one from Window Support if I don’t pay money I will get arrested. From 574 the Social Security department, somebody named Amanda Barnes if I don’t call them I am going to jail. Also Social Security Department they say I am going to get arrested if I don’t speak to an officer or dial 1. I wanted to let people be aware there are a lot of scams going on and don’t be fooled. Don’t answer, block it delete it. They are scams, Amazon, Window Support, Social Security Department, packages you have not paid they say they are going to arrest you. So please don’t fall for these scams.
Boycott Coke There are many evil corporations in this country playing poli-
tics, including Facebook, Twitter, Nike, etc., but I want to make sure everyone is aware of one of the worst companies in the world right now. Coca Cola is about as bad as it gets. They have gone “woke,” and the executives are pushing their extreme left liberal agenda. They have supported extreme activists like Colin Kaepernick in the past. Then a company employee blew the whistle on Coke’s internal training called “how to be less white,” which basically degraded all white employees and explained how to not be bigots and be more sympathetic to minorities. Then they were major opponents to the Georgia election law, which they and Democrats all called “racist,” even though in reality it actually insured a fair and honest election system and actually makes it easier for minority people to vote. Most recently the company issued strict requirements to its outside counsel to mandate the selection of lawyers on the basis of race. In other words, all lawyers who work for them be hired not because they are good lawyers but because they are black. Boycott Coke.
No fear There is a lot controversy about this virus. What do you say about this? Now here comes the shot. Is it necessary and would you take it? Confusion is the right way to describe this mess. Who is the author of confusion? One needs to do research and go very slow with the decision. Here is why I have no plan in taking the shot. I am a Christian and with a lot of faith. What is in the shot? Do you know? If I put something in me I should know what it is or what it will do to me. There are no long term studies on this stuff. I know for a fact there are doctors who will not take the shot. They did the homework and so did I. So I am saying no thank you. If you step back and think about all the shutdowns, masks, media and no flu this year. Is there not something wrong with the picture and now you do as you wish. I for one will not tell you what to do. Revelation 21 talks about fear. If you have fear you will find yourself in the lake of fire after you die and come to the judgment. So think why do you want to take the shot. If you are a Christian and born again you will have no fear.
Research it Why did the death toll from one year to the next not rise if COVID was all they said it was? The problem with COVID was the $$ incentive. People have proven they will lie, cheat and steal for money. As for cloth masks, ha ha! If you want to wear a mask that actually prevents anything, you’re going to have to get a gas mask that protects from nuclear attacks. Furthermore, it is unhealthy to breathe in your own carbon dioxide. Science has proven all of this. Research it for the facts.
Sounds nice Here are some excerpts from a very revealing article found at https://imprimis.hillsdale.
edu/critical-race-theory-fight/ exposing what the left has been working on to implement social institutional orthodoxy. It is another phase of their overall plan to re-engineer society . . . It has been injected into government agencies, public school systems, teacher training programs, and corporate human resources departments in the form of diversity training programs, human resources modules, public policy frameworks, and school curricula. There are a series of euphemisms deployed by its supporters to describe critical race theory, including “equity,” “social justice,” “diversity and inclusion.” . . . One modern definition of insanity is when man keeps trying the same thing but expecting a different outcome and this holds true for the Marxism promoters. Remember socialism quits working when you run out of other peoples’ money.
A long list This is just another of a long list of Joe Biden’s many lies. He was speaking in front of an AmTrak crowd. Bet none of us saw the media check his tale for truth. “There was an article, I guess my fourth or fifth year as vice president, saying Biden travels 1,300,000 miles on Air Force One Two. I used to take the train home. My mom was sick and I used to try to come home almost every weekend as vice president to see her. I got on the train and Angelo Negri came up and he goes, ‘Joey, baby,’ and he grabbed my cheek like he always did. I thought he was going to get shot. I’m serious. I said, ‘No, no, he’s a friend.’ “He said, ‘Joey, what’s the big deal? 1,300,000 miles on Air Force Two? Do you know how many miles you traveled on Amtrak?’ I said, ‘No, Angie, I don’t
9
know.’ He gave me the calculation and he said you traveled 1,500,000 miles on Amtrak. The fact is, I’d probably take Angie’s word before I’d take the word of what the article said.” However, a few elements of the story seemed out of place. Biden entered the fourth year of his term as vice president around 2013, and Negri’s obituary states he retired from Amtrak in 1993, while Biden was still a senator. Meanwhile, Biden’s mother, Catherine Eugenia Finnegan, died in 2010.
Hear my voice I think most of the seven million extra votes President Biden won in the presidential election came from voters like me. I split my ticket. While I supported most of our Republican candidates I could not in good conscience continue to support Mr. Trump. It also explains how there were not many Republican seats lost to the Democrats in that very same election. Joe Biden did not cause a ripple effect. Votes like mine were not against the Republican Party but they were against Donald Trump and his brand. I think there were a lot of us who felt that way. Please give us the courtesy of hearing our voices too. Saying the election was stolen is trying to cancel my vote and the votes of millions.
Why say it now? This is to “Biden really won.” If you really believe that, why do you need to say it now, he’s in the White House. Enjoy the high gas prices and higher taxes. I would think a forensic audit would be great to prove it for you. Yet you’re fighting anything that could prove he won, why?
Registration begins for fun run and walk Registration is now underway for the 2021 Colors For Kids Family Fun Run and Walk to benefit Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County. The untimed event, geared toward families and social groups, will take place at 9 a.m. Saturday, June 26, in downtown Elkhart’s Central Park. Participants experience different “colors” at stations along the 5K route beginning at Central Park on Waterfall Drive at High Street. The event was held virtually in 2020 because of the pandemic. Organizers have been working closely with the Elkhart County Health Department to ensure the event can be held safely in person this year, with safety protocols in place. Participants will be asked to wear masks during registra-
tion and packet pick up and practice social distancing. There will also be touchless hand sanitizing stations around the park.

Groups of four or more are $20 per person and groups of 10 or more are $15 per person. Register online at ColorsForKidsElkhart.org.
