April 28, 1939 - February 28, 2008

I still can’t believe it, it doesn’t seem realI asked God to wait...

can’t we please make a deal?We need her the most here, just let her stay

If it’s just for a while, if it’s just one more day.

He said, Oh my child, you don’t understandShe’ll be a healed soul

if she just takes my hand.Go ahead, cry if you must, shed many a tearBut always remember...I am nothing to fear

We knew she was tired, the pain she could not hide

He guaranteed no more hurting if she stood by His side

He promised her beauty and gold streets in His land

So we tearfully and painfully let go of her hand.

He said letting go hurts the ones left behindBut I promise once you do

you will eventually findShe’ll be happy and singing

and the first one you seeShe’ll be waiting in heaven

and what a miracle it will be

Written by DaughterLorrie McGraw-Hardesty

Forever Missed by her FamilyWe Love You Mom!

GIFT Doug Marmie and Roxanne Potter from the Coshocton Rotary Club recently came to Sacred Heart School to give each of Paula Hathaway’s third grade students their own personal copy of Webster’s Stu-dent Dictionary. The students told Marmie how they would use the dictionary to help them put words in al-phabetical order, look up the meanings of words and help them spell words correctly. After their benefac-tors left, the students delighted in finding new words, funny words and new meanings to words they already knew. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

Be prepared for a few surprises when you watch the Footlight Players perform “Smoke & Mirrors.” “It has a lot of twists and turns,” said Betsy Gauerke, director. “What you see isn’t necessarily what you get.” According to www.footlightplayers.com, “Smoke & Mirrors” is about a famous movie director and a screenwriter who plot to kill the also famous but air-headed actor. The director’s wife and the local sheriff also are involved in the story line. “All of the characters are individuals and totally different from each other,” Gauerke said. Denny Blanford, who plays the director, described his character as self-centered and egotistical. “He’s devious, but very subtle,” he said. Blanford’s character also involves his wife in his plan to murder an actor. “We have a love hate relationship,” said Kathy Reid who plays Blanford’s wife. “There is a wicked twist at the end of the play.” Also involved in the scheme is Nathan Mayse who plays the screenwriter. “My character is high strung and excitable,” he said. Rounding out the cast is Jeff Wherley who plays the actor Blanford wants to murder and Jon Cotterman who fills the role of the sheriff. “I’m the fly in their ointment,” Wherley said. Cotterman’s character is a cross between Andy Griffith and Columbo. “He comes off as kind of a buffoon, but he doesn’t miss as much as they think,” Cotterman said. Gauerke has worked with everyone in the play before and had nothing but praise for the actors. “I know how good and professional they are,” she said. “They learn their lines and don’t bump into the furniture. It’s so much fun to sit and watch them go. It’s a very talented group.” The play will be performed at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, March 2-3, 9-10, 16-17, at Triple Locks Theater. Admission is $10 and more information can be found at www.footlightplayers.com or by calling 622-2959.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR BY HARRY JAMES MEDLEY JR.Daytona postponed – again? As of this writing, yes. Less importantly, who watched the Oscars? And further, has anyone seen “The Artist”? Please let me know. Most of the time, I think that we live in our world and Hollywood exists on another planet. Super Tuesday looms on the horizon as I write this column. Primaries in Alaska, Georgia, Idaho, Massachusetts, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Vermont and Virginia will all take place on Tuesday, March 6, 2012. With four Republican candidates still in the hunt for the nomination, this day will more than likely reduce the field to two candidates. Our bet is on Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich. Ron Paul has hung in there longer than many believed possible. But Santorum could be a surprise. Locally, all the candidates deserve our appreciation for putting themselves in front of the public eye. I think that sometimes we neglect to consider this aspect of those that run for political office. And yes, there are those that would say, “That is their choice,” and they would be correct. However, that does nothing to negate the willingness these people have to serve their community, friends, neighbors and family. It is an honorable decision and should be viewed in that vein. Afghanistan seems to be on the verge of becoming the quagmire that many feared it might. While our intentions are usually right, that does not mean that every country and political faction is willing to make our freedoms their own. Perhaps some

are willing to accept a dictatorship, corrupt government, police state or otherwise. Perhaps it is our best course of action to leave these to their own devices, so to speak. This unfortunate incident of accidentally burning copies of the Koran at a U.S. military

base in Afghanistan has now led to the deaths of two Americans and several Afghans. This is tragic. But I am growing a bit weary of our leaders continued apologizing for the actions of our military. The last time I checked we were at war. Maybe it’s okay to apologize after the war, but during? Our military forces deserve our thanks and respect, not thrown under the wheels of the bus every time we do something that conflicts with a culture or religion. And apologizing to Muslim Americans in Washington D.C. will probably have little impact on the issue at large. Can you imagine how this approach might have altered World War II? The Revolution? Civil War? To my knowledge, the British never apologized for totally trashing Boston and New York during that little uprising among the colonies. Nor should they have. And I don’t recall Sherman apologizing for destroying Atlanta and a lot of the south during the Civil War. Granted, there are sometimes a few bad apples in the barrel, but typically our military does a respectable job of controlling their own. I would enjoy hearing your opinion on this. Remember to exercise your rights as an American – get out and vote next Tuesday, March 6th!

I firmly believe that morals and morale go hand in hand. However, when it comes to money, it, money has no conscience. This is very evident today in America and economically throughout the world. I recently read that tax payer money was used to bail out the Fannie Mae debacle. The fact behind the ruse is that the Russians had invested in the bounds of Fannie Mae. So our tax payers bailed out the Russians much like our partnering up with them during the war to defeat Hitler. I personally don’t like the idea of bailing out people or countries of adversarial status. The world is still a dangerous place.

Our primary election is now held early, being March 6, versus in May. Because of this we don’t have as much time to get to know our candidates before casting our votes. I’d like to share with you my knowledge of Regina Bryant, candidate for Coshocton County Recorder, and why I plan to vote for her. I’ve known Regina (or “Nina” as most friends affectionately call her) for many years. She and my son graduated from River View in 1989. She and her family have vacationed with mine. Over the years we’ve talked about world events and local politics. Her views are conservative, like mine. I know her well and was excited to learn she planned to run for the recorder position that is opening due to current Recorder Dave Dilly seeking the State Representative position. And I’ve been honored to serve as treasurer for her campaign. I’m starting into my sixth four year term as an elected Franklin Township Trustee and in this job I’ve learned the importance of having effective leadership in our county positions. If we give her the opportunity, I’m certain Regina Bryant will do a superb job for us. She’s intelligent, compassionate, and very well organized in all she does. When she recently came to our township meeting to introduce herself, we had a pretty good sized group in attendance. She was very professional in describing her capabilities and plans for the Recorder’s office if elected. She fielded questions about the Recorder’s office as if like an incumbent. And I was impressed to learn she has contacted other County Recorder’s offices in surrounding counties to evaluate their “best practices.” We’re fortunate to have an excellent group of candidates seeking elected county offices and I personally know most of them. Regina Bryant is my choice for County Recorder. I hope you’ll join me in voting for her on March 6.

Vera Rose enjoyed potato soup and apple pie for lunch last Wednesday, but the delicious food wasn’t the only reason she and the other ladies at her table attended the first of six Lenten Luncheons. “I come every year and I enjoy a little bit of everything,” said Pat Holder. This is the 43rd year for the Lenten Luncheons, which are sponsored by the Coshocton County Association of Churches. The luncheons began Ash Wednesday, Feb. 22 and continue until Wednesday, March 28. Lunch is prepared by Church Women United of various area churches and attendees enjoy music and presentations by area pastors. “It’s a fun time that gets you in the Easter spirit,” said Ann Baker. Proceeds from the luncheons are given to Church Women United for its children’s clothing program. The suggested donation for the lunch is $4. “A lot of people at this time of year don’t get to see others so it’s a good time for fellowship,” said Sue Carlisle who coordinates activities in the kitchen. She makes different types of bread and biscuits for the tables and also comes in early Wednesday mornings to get the soups warming up and the coffee on. “People come in at 10:30 a.m. to have coffee and sit and catch up,” Carlisle said. “It’s more than just an hour event for a lot of people.” After the soups were enjoyed, attendees listened to a message delivered by the Rev. Jon Carlisle titled “I Am the Alpha and the Omega.” “In the journey of life God sometimes taps

us and has us go a different direction that is not as well traveled and may be a harder route,” said Carlisle from The Presbyterian Church. Carlisle, however, explained that Jesus will always be with us no matter what part of the road we are on. Larry Pepper also took part as a presenter and the program listed music being provided by Alice Hoover and Charles Snyder. This year’s theme for the lunches is “The ‘I am’ sayings of Jesus.” The Feb. 29 speaker will be Pastor Ken Smailes from Blissfield and Killbuck United Methodist Churches and the presenter will be Judy Elliott from Grace United Methodist Church. “I enjoy the fellowship with other believers and the whole atmosphere here,” said Starkey Lawrence. “It makes you slow down and realize that God really does love you and reminds you that he sent his son to die for us.” The lunches are held at 11:45 a.m. Wednesdays in the fellowship hall of The Presbyterian Church in Coshocton on the corner of Chestnut and Fourth streets.

Walhonding Valley Fire Department receives new equipment BY BETH SCOTT

The Walhonding Valley Fire Department recently received new equipment as part of the Coshocton County EMA Home Land Security Grant. Each year, the grant is used to purchase certain items that local fire departments need. In 2009, the Walhonding Valley Fire District received their first grant and purchased two sets

of dry suits for their dive team. Recently, using their 2010 grant funds, they purchased two more sets of dry suits, an AGA communication mask which is a full face mask where divers can communicate with their partner underwater, an underwater communication system, a new thermal imaging camera, a gas meter which detects carbon dioxide and oxygen levels, and dive equipment for chemical dives. “I just wanted to get out to the public that those grants are out there and we’ve been pretty fortunate to get those grants, so we didn’t have to spend taxpayers’ money on this equipment,” said Chief Mike Snyder. The fire department has just received these new pieces of equipment, except for the gas meter which was received last year, and they have never been used.

Evan Abood to play at Pomerene’s Rent Party

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACONEvan Abood is bringing his acoustic side to the Pomerene for its Rent Party at 7 p.m. Friday, March 2. At the time of the Great Migration north, blacks emigrating from the south settled the problem of Harlem New York’s inflated rents by throwing parties. Furniture was moved to the outside walls, musicians and refreshments were brought in, card tables were setup out of the way of the dance floor, and the doors were opened in exchange for a few bucks. In an effort to relieve stress on its monthly budget, the Pomerene Center has adopted/adapted the Rent Party to help meet their monthly gas bill. Suggested donation is $10 a person and snack plates are $3. Call the Pomerene Center for the Arts at 622-0326 or e-mail [email protected] for table reservations.

To the Voters of Coshocton County: My name is Regina Bryant and I am running in the Republican Primary for Coshocton County Recorder. It is very important for the voters to learn a little bit about me, the qualifications I have to be County Recorder and what steps I plan to take to make the Recorder’s Office run more efficiently. I was born and raised here in Coshocton County. My parents are the late John Uher, Jr. and Mona Barringer Jensen. My parents named me Regina but my closest friends and family call me “Nina.” I graduated from River View High School in 1989 and from the University of Cincinnati in 1992 with a degree in applied business and an emphasis in court reporting.

I am very involved in many organizations here locally: PTO treasurer of Lincoln Elementary School, Girl Scout volunteer for 8 years, Girl Scout leader for 5 years and Board Member and Secretary of the American Cancer Society of Coshocton County as well as our Relay for Life. My career as a court reporter spans over 20 years. I started working in West Virginia with the largest court reporting firm in the state. In 1995, I moved back to Coshocton and started working with our legal community locally and in the surrounding counties. In 1998 I married Garrison Bryant. We have two children, Morgan and Lindsay, ages 9 and 7. In 2005, I left the court reporting firm I had worked for since graduating from college and started my own firm, Bryant Court Reporting, LLC. My duties as a court reporter for the past 20 years have been to record accurately and archive testimony, whether it be from court, depositions or Grand Jury. I know how important it is to preserve legal documents. My work in a major firm and owning my own business has more than qualified me for the Recorder’s Office. These duties will enable me to run the Recorder’s Office very efficiently. It is important to note that I foresee my training will take place in-house and there will be no additional expenditures to the County. As a court reporter, I have worked in a computer-aided field for over 20 years and I am up to date on the latest technology to make my job as accurate and efficient as possible. It is necessary to get the Recorder’s Office as up to date as well. The past three months I have spent talking with other employees of County Recorders’ Offices surrounding Coshocton. I have not only asked about how they are handling their on-line records but also about how they are responding to the influx of individuals in and out of the office due to the oil and gas wave that is hitting our county right now. I am the best candidate for County Recorder because I have the education, the experience, a strong work ethic, dedication and passion to strive to be successful in whatever challenges come my way. I am very excited about the opportunity to serve our community not because I feel this position should be awarded to me because of my years of service, but because I have the integrity to work hard for our community to provide them the services they need because I have the qualifications to do so most efficiently. It is time to bring new ideas from the private sector into our local government to benefit our community as a whole. Sincerely, Regina Bryant

Coshocton is Blooming launches websiteBY JOSIE McCORMICK

Do you know how to get involved in Coshocton is Blooming or what the some like it hot theme is about? With the click of your mouse you can find answers to these questions and much more information on www.coshoctonisblooming.org.The website was launched Feb. 23 by the organization. “We are so excited,” said Bill Freund president of Coshocton is Blooming. “We’ve been working on it for months.” Lainie Brillhart designed the website. “We commend her for her tremendous talent and willingness to do this,” Freund said. One key feature of the site is that it lists the six criteria for the America in Bloom contest near the top of the page. “Last fall we learned that America in Bloom was redesigning its eight criteria to six,” Freund said. “They also eliminated community involvement and it is now part of each of the six which made us need a plan to drive community involvement.” When you click on each of the six criteria you will learn what judges will be looking for and how you can prepare for that part of the

contest. “We want to use the website to drive participation,” Freund said. The website also will be a place to go to find out when judges from America in Bloom will come to Coshocton, and what cities our community will be competing against. “Keep checking it because we will be shouting that news out loud,” Freund said.

United Way campaign reaches 98.3 percent of goal BY JOSIE McCORMICKA slow economy didn’t keep the community from backing United Way. United Way of Coshocton County, Inc. reached 98.3 percent of its 2011-12 campaign goal of $365,000 by raising $358,793.48. The figures were announced during United Way’s annual meeting and breakfast, which was held Feb. 23, at The Presbyterian Church of Coshocton. “Times are tough, but Coshocton has risen to the occasion and the challenge,” said Beccy Porteus, who is president of the United Way board. “Eight thousand seven hundred dollars more was raised this year than what was pledged last year. We are very grateful for that and this is a celebration of our success and a way to say thank you.” After breakfast was served, board members and officers, committee members and campaign chairs were recognized. The Rev. Robert Millsbaugh also was recognized for his years of dedication to United Way. “For the past 39 years he has supported and been a part of United Way,” Porteus said. “That’s a lifetime of dedication to our community and now he is going off our board this year. We appreciate everything he’s done for us.” Kraft Foods also was honored for being the 2011-12 campaign corporate sponsor. “Each year we seek up front support for funds to help our campaign run smoothly,” Porteus said. “We were delighted that Kraft agreed to do this and that their employees stepped up and had

a 157 percent increase over last year’s pledges.” Kraft Foods was one of several companies that received a president’s award. This award was given to businesses that pledged $10,000 or more. A gold award went to those who raised $1,000 to $9,999, silver to pledge totals of $500 to $999, and bronze awards to those who contributed $250 to $499. Commitment awards also were handed out to businesses that had employee campaign participation of 90 percent or better. The top giver award went to RockTenn for its total pledge of $46,488.08. “For the past five years they have pledged more than a quarter million dollars,” Porteus said. “They are consistent with their generous support of United Way and its agencies.” The money raised during the annual campaign helps support 19 partner agencies, which were also recognized during the meeting. “These are tremendous agencies that are very necessary in our community,” said Lyn Mizer, director of United Way. It also was announced at the meeting that cleanup day is scheduled for Saturday, April 21 and that Taste of Coshocton will be Thursday, Aug. 23. Mizer also announced that the 2012-13 campaign corporate sponsor will be AEP Ohio

Conesville Plant. “Thank you all,” Mizer said. “The town wouldn’t be what it is without you folks.”

TOP GIVER AWARD RockTenn earned the top giver award from United Way for its total pledge of $46,488.08 to the 2011-12 campaign. Businesses were honored for donating to United Way during its annual meeting, which was held Feb. 23. BEACON PHOTO BY JOSIE McCORMICK

1952March 4, 1952

The Conesville Vikings had another trophy to add to their collection after pounding West Lafayette on the basketball court with a 65-50 score in the finals of the Class B sectional basketball tournament. The victorious Vikings would then tango with the New Matamoras team soon to try to advance to the regional tournament in Athens. The Zanesville Rosecrans and Marietta St. Mary’s would battle it out and the winner of these two games would clash on the court that weekend for the right to represent the district in the regional tournament. The game between Conesville and West Lafayette was close until the last six minutes when Conesville finally pulled away for the win.

1962March 5, 1962

Almost 200 men and young boys gathered at the First Baptist Church to hear Ohio State Coach Woody Hayes speak. John Mummey, quarterback for Ohio State, introduced Hayes and gave a brief talk on his career in athletics, predicting the Bucks would make a trip to the Rose Bowl that year. Hayes then talked about football and said that a young man should place his emphasis on education while in college with sports as a secondary. He also spoke on the value of teamwork and leadership in a team saying, “You get out of anything only what you put into it.” He also said that a great ball team never is resentful of a player because of his mistakes but accepts the challenge and continues the effort to win.

1972March 4, 1972

The River View High School band was all jazzed up for their annual band festival. Why? Because Charles Minelli, one of the nation’s most renowned band directors, was coming to be a guest conductor and would be presenting one of the songs he had composed through the River View Symphony Band. Minelli had travelled the nation as well as parts of Canada conducting and was known for his knowledge of Italian music. He was also a member of The American Bandmasters Association, founded by John Philip Sousa. Also performing at the concert would be the River View Elementary bands. Cost for the concert was $1.

1982March 2, 1982

Coshocton schools were celebrating Right to Read week with many fun activities. At Central Elementary and Coshocton Middle School, students performed a skit from their favorite book. Other fun activities included student work displays, a magic show, and a book fair hosted by the Coshocton County Joint Vocational School where they provided books and magazines for sale. All profits for the book sale went to the organizations selling the books.All information was obtained from microfilm of the Coshocton

Tribune at the Coshocton County Library.

MemoriesThe way we were... Hidden Treasurer: Newspaper clipping honored Civil War veterans BY BEACON STAFF

The picture in this newspaper clipping contributed by Fielding Magness, shows his Great-Grandfather Fielding and his Uncle Fielding. “I heard about him (my great-granddad) every since I was old enough to remember,” Magness said. The picture was taken in 1895 and shows Civil War Veterans. The article also describes how Memorial Day, once known as Decoration Day, was celebrated in Plainfield. “Great-Granddad was with Sherman when he marched in Georgia,” Magness said. “He died in 1922. I thought some readers may recognize some of the names mentioned.” The caption under the photo reads: “Front row (seated left to right) – Martin Duling, Sgt. Francis A. Stone, Rev E.B. Ward, Capt. E.B. Hayes, Rev James Lloyd, Jack Hootman, T.J.

Platt, George Tidrick, Steven Woodward; second row – James Banford, Thomas Cook, John B. Baker, Allen Platt, Duffy Parker, Samuel Davis, Dr. Chapman, Joe Bates, William McKee, Edward Gaumer, Daucy Baker, Fielding Magness, James B. Gaskill; third row – Isaiah B. Case, John Criswell, Aaron Wells, Thomas Magness. The children were Edward Stone, a Magness boy and Alice Bell Woodward. The latter is almost hidden by man seated at right.” “I’ve had this clipping for years,” Magness said. “It was passed down through the family.”

FAMILY HISTORY Fielding Magness brought in this news-paper clipping, which shows his Great-Grandfather Fielding and his Uncle Fielding. Ideas for Hidden Treasurers can be e-mailed to [email protected] or you can call us with your idea at 622-4237. The articles will run as space is available. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEA-CON

Because of high demand, instructor Jessie Tubbs is repeating the class that was given Feb. 18. Students in this first class will make a scarf. This is the first of three beginner classes. The following two are scheduled for the third Saturday in March and April. Participants will begin a new project in each class.

For the March 17 class Tubbs will give a refresher of the basic stitches, and then the class will make

a slouchy beanie. In the April 21 class, students will learn to make an animal hat (bunny, chick, bear, monkey or ?). Participants should bring a crochet hook (G or H) and a skein or two of worsted yarn--acrylic, wool or a blend. The class is informal and fun. The coffee pot will be on. Cost is $9/class or all three for $25. (Friends of the Museum, $1 off each class.) Enter the museum at the back door on the lower level.

Tiverton Community Institute offers activities for all ages BY JOSIE McCORMICKWhat started out as an event for farmers has evolved into one for the entire community to enjoy. The 110th annual Tiverton Community Institute will be held Wednesday and Thursday, March 7-8, at the Tiverton Community Hall in Tiverton Center, which is four miles south of U.S. 62 on State Route 206. “Farmers would have meetings and bring in guys that sold things like fertilizer and seeds,” said Richard Border. “Farmers got away from this area and that’s kind of why it changed to a community event. It’s really, I think, the last two day session institute in the state of Ohio.” Wednesday, March 7, will feature baking and woodworking contests, presentations by Dan Markley and Chuck Wiseman and Phyllis Debnar and youth night featuring the River View High School Choir and a skit by the Kinzel Family. Thursday, March 8, attendees will get to enjoy guest speakers Don Croskey, Dave Snyder and Ken Smailes, music by Nothin’ Flat and the community play “Man Under Her Bed.” “We have different speakers coming in so

we have something for women and men and even to interest the youth,” said Maxine Border.She also noted that the community play is a good crowd pleaser. “It draws a crowd, but we also have good crowds for the morning and afternoon programs,” Maxine said. “I guess we must have good speakers and we usually get someone that doesn’t charge a whole lot so we can afford to keep it going.” The only scheduled event to have a set price at the Tiverton Community Institute is the March 8 soup supper. The supper is from 4:30 to 6 p.m. and is $5 for adults and $2.50 for children ages 6 and under. The menu also includes homemade pies, cakes and salads. The Borders said donations are asked for at the other scheduled events and the money is used to keep the Tiverton Community Institute going as long as possible. The two day event also includes door prizes, a youth poster contest and morning coffee and donuts and a covered dish lunch both days. The Borders are both officers in the Tiverton Grange, but said the event is actually organized by a variety of people in the area. “It’s the community that puts it on,” Maxine said.

aGrave of Coshocton man killed in World War II adopted BY JOSIE McCORMICK

Coshocton native Rodney A. Renfrew died almost 70 years ago, but René van Slooten of Woerden in The Netherlands, is making sure his sacrifices are not forgotten. Renfrew died while fighting in World War II and is buried in the American Military Cemetery Henri Chapelles in Belgium. His grave was adopted by Slooten, whose family was liberated by American soldiers during the war. Slooten’s parents had hidden a Jewish friend in their home in Eindhoven in The Netherlands. “This was very dangerous and punishable by death,” he said. “They were betrayed and my mother sensed that the house was being watched, so they managed to get the Jewish friend to another safe house.” The house ended up being searched in September 1944, and Slooten’s mother was taken to prison. She was seven months pregnant with Slooten at the time. “My mother was in prison for two weeks, being interrogated every day and not knowing what had happened to my father and brother (who was 2-years-old then),” he said. “She also heard terrible rumors about what happened to

pregnant women in the Nazi concentration

camps, so she was terrified and feared for the worst.” Slooten’s mother’s fears were put to rest on Sept. 18, 1944, when American soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division liberated her and Eindhoven during Operation Market Garden. “Since then she always called them ‘the angels who came from heaven,’” he said. “She could join my father and brother and it was the happiest day in her life. Operation Market Garden failed in the end, but Eindhoven remained liberated, and I was born there two months later. So my whole family owes their lives to the American liberators.” Slooten decided to show his gratitude to the American soldiers who helped his family by adopting a grave. His quest to find a grave started with the American cemetery Margraten in Holland, but he was put on a waiting list. Slooten then found out he could adopt a name on the Wall of the Missing. He was given the name Captain John Doherty, a medical officer of the 319th Glider

Field Artillery of Buffalo, N.Y. According to Slooten, Doherty was reported missing in action Sept. 18, 1944, near the Dutch town of Nijmegen. He was able to contact his family and in 2009 wrote a story for the Erie County Veterans Newsletter. “I discovered that three more men were MIA together with Doherty (I am now working on a memorial for them) and that two were KIA and buried in Belgium: Lt. Emanuel Gracie (Rhode Island) at the Ardennes Cemetery and Lt. Rodney Renfrew (Ohio) at the Henri Chapelle Cemetery,” Slooten said. “The grave of Gracie was already adopted, but the grave of Rodney was not, so I did that immediately and I received the certificate in October 2010.” Slooten was able to find out information about Renfrew from his individual deceased personnel file, which he requested from the U.S. Army archive, and from Herb Tidrick at the Coshocton County Veterans Service Office. “I was very excited to get that first e-mail from him,” said Tidrick. “It’s a good thing that Rodney is being remembered and when these graves are adopted they are really taken care of.” Slooten also received copies of Renfrew’s obituary from Deborah Crowdy and heard from Darlene Guess of Olde Town Realty, the former office of the late Tracy Renfrew, Rodney’s brother. “Unfortunately Rodney’s brother Tracy died….but at least he knew that the grave was taken care of,” Slooten said. “I hope that it was a comfort for him.” Through his research, Slooten has discovered that Renfrew was born in September 1922 to A. Tracy and Gladys (Hamilton) Renfrew, who lived on Route 3. He graduated from Keene High School in 1940 and was a Second Lieutenant with the 319th Glider Field Artillery Battalion, 82nd Airborne Division. Renfrew was killed in action Feb. 10, 1945

Captain Lenton Sartain and the Airborne GI’s of the 319th Glider Field Artillery” by Joseph Covais. “I got a picture from this Captain Sartain, who was Rodney’s commanding officer during the war and who is still alive in Baton Rouge, La.,” Slooten said. “He remembers Rodney well.” Slooten has visited Renfrew’s grave twice since adopting it and said visiting it the first time was very emotional. “The older I get (I am 67 now) the more I

realize that I owe a beautiful and fulfilling life to men like Rodney Renfrew,” he said.

River View’s “Fantastic Four” swimmers smash records, make state CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON, INTERVIEWS BY MARK FORTUNEIn the world of local area boys’ swimming lore, several names or groups of names come to mind. “The Big Four” comprised of Doug Todd, Charlie Guerke, Greg Mascia, and Bill Clark 1978-80 at CHS, “The Chariots of Fire” comprised of Aaron Ball, Josh Davis, Tommy Lee and Pat McCabe 1986-88 at CHS (Anchors of the undefeated regular season swim team), and more recently “The Fab Four” comprised of Matt Madsen, Josh Haines, Brian Tubbs, Steve Salmons and Adam Turner 2005-09. All these individuals and groups of individuals hold or held records at Coshocton High School with some becoming almost “cast in concrete”; those perhaps being the records held by Bill Clark in the 200 free (2:01..21, 1978) , 200 IM (2:25.50, 1978), 100 Butterfly (1:01.90, 1980), 100 Freestyle (55.40, 1978), Greg Mascia, 400 Freestyle (4:18.73, 1978) and Eric Smith in the 100 Breast stroke (1:13.10, 1976). When a swimmer breaks a records that was set more than 30 years ago it becomes something that is noteworthy, perhaps even legendary. When a set of records or those held by individuals continue to stand the test of time and represent state qualifying times it is no wonder that these names get mentioned with respect and earn the status of being legendary. When the “Fab Four” set out to take down the “Holy Grail” of Relay records (The Medley Relay and 400 Free Relay) it was no small assumption by local area swimmers that they might not see anyone swim that fast as a group for another 30 years; that’s how special those records are. Enter the swimming excellence of River View High School’s “The Fantastic Four”; comprised of Zach Elson, Wade Garrett, Coleston Pope and Tom Arthan. Let’s start with Zach Elson who has only been swimming on the team for two years. A natural born swimmer who has taken to the water like the “proverbial duck”’ he has demonstrated the poise and maturity of a seasoned veteran. Zach is the RVHS version of Doug Todd or Josh Haines (Current recorder holder CHS 1:05.91, 2009). Zach qualified for Districts in the 200 Medley and 400 Free Relay(s) and in the individual events of 200 freestyle and 100 back placing fifth and ninth respectively in those events at the 80 team field Central/Southeast District meet held Friday, Feb. 17 at The Ohio State University. Wade Garrett is the RVHS version of that classic 50 free sprinter Mike Salmons (Current record holder CHS 25.00, 1996). Wade has been swimming for four years and started as a middle distance swimmer until his coaches determined he was a natural born sprinter built to lead off or anchor sprint relays. Wade recently set the new standard at RVHS in the 50 free with a 25.88 which is close to Bill Clark’s old record of 25.48. Mix in Coleston Pope who is an all around swimmer much like Bill Clark who, like

Bill, can swim just about any stroke and event. Pope is currently swimming the 200 IM and 500 Freestyle and set new standards by eclipsing Bill’s record of 2:25.50 in the 200 IM with a new E.C.O.L and school record of 2:24.15. Coleston swam to two fifth place finishes in his individual events at Districts. Add to this mix none other than the “Asian Sensation” Tom Arthan who is a talented multi-stroke swimmer who has specialized in the 100 Backstroke and 100 Butterfly this season and has answered the call to step in to whatever event his coaches have asked in order to bring a perfect balance to the team. Arthan set new team records in the 100 butterfly with a time of 1:03.01 and the 100 Backstroke with a time of 1:04.75. Again these records compare favorably with the likes of Bill Clark’s 100 Butterfly record of 1:01.90 (set in 1978) and Josh Haines 100 backstroke of 1:05.91 (set 2009). Arthan swam to fifth place finishes in both of his District events. As a result of their individual and relay events they were able to garner a sixth place team finish at the 80 team District meet at The Ohio State University. (See www.swimmeet.com for more results) What these four have accomplished individually is noteworthy, what they have accomplished together on two Relay Teams is extraordinary and thus the new tag “Fantastic Four.” Let’s first talk about the 400 Free Relay Team. The former ECOL record was set by the “Fab Four” in 2009 and set the bar high smashing the CHS team record that had been held by the “Big Four” of 3:58.20 30 years ago

with a new time of 3:53.29. Enter the Fantastic Four who reset the ECOL record at this year’s championship meet with a time of 3:53.05. The young men from River View’s 400 freestyle team swam over four seconds faster than their Sectional time to earn them a fourth place finish at the District Meet and their time compared to the other three Districts qualified them as the second River View relay team headed to the State Championships. The medley relay is comprised of all four strokes and is a very difficult relay to swim. Zach Elson earned the honors of swimming the first leg of the relay with the backstroke, followed by Tom Arthan swimming the breaststroke, Coleston Pope swimming the butterfly and anchored by Wade Garrett swimming the freestyle. The relay team swam to a second place finish at the ECOL championships finishing second to Dover High School. Both teams broke the league record and their own school records with RVHS setting their standard at 1:57.64, eclipsing the old record held by CHS’s “Fab Four” of 1:58.50. Dover’s own version of the “Fast Four” set the league standard at 1:55.82. The RV medley relay team turned the tables on the Dover medley relay team earning a second place finish at the District meet and the same team shaved more than three seconds off their first place Sectional time, qualifying them for the state meet held Thursday and Friday, Feb. 23 and 24 in Canton. This is the first swim team from River View to make the state finals and is a moment in time that may last for four or 30

THE FANTASTIC FOUR Four members of the River View swim team dubbed “The Fantastic Four” smashed re-cords all season long and qualified for the state finals.

Swim CONTINUED FROM PAGE 14years until the next special group of “Four” comes along; but this season belongs to Zach Elson (Z-Man), Coleston Pope (C-Pac), Wade Garrett (The Brick) and Tom Arthan (“The Asian Sensation” aka A-Sensi). The Beacon caught up with the “Fantastic Four” swimmers at the CHS practice pool last week as they prepared for the state meet in Canton and asked them about the season, how it felt to qualify for state and what they were looking forward to at the event. Zach Elson said, “It’s really exciting. All that work we did all season is paying off. We worked really hard, coming into practice twice a day, every day except for Sunday. I hope we swim really fast and have some fun.” Coleston Pope chimed in, saying “This is pretty exciting. Last year we missed it by less than a 10th of a second, so it feels good this year to be able to qualify and be there. I’m looking forward to swimming with people that are of our own level, at a lot of meets this year it has just been us. We’ve worked really hard this year.” Wade Garrett added, “It feels good because I’ve worked four years for this, going to practice twice a day for four years, going to swim camp, it all paid off this year. It’s going to mean a lot and it’s going to be a fun time going there. We’re all pretty close and that also makes it fun.” Tom Arthan said, “It feels good. It’s fun to swim with these guys.” Arthan, who is from Thailand, said he would not know the significance of making state until later. RV swim coach Noah Gallagher said, “Wow, wow, that’s what I can say to sum it up in one word. For 12 years, River View has had a swim team and this is the first time we have had a swim relay team make it to state. That is a huge accomplishment and hopefully something we can build on and use in the future.” I think they know the tradition at River

View, we pride ourselves on being a tough program, they know that when they come in it is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes people may join the swim team and think it’s an easy letter, but after a week or two, they realize that it’s one of the hardest things they’ve ever done. These four will tell you that this is one of the hardest things they’ve ever done. They’re going to see later in life that when you put in the time and the hard work and the effort that it will pay off. We put the goal out at the beginning of the year to make it this far and they have put the time in. Every morning we were in here at 5:30 a.m., we swam until 6:30 a.m. or 6:45 a.m. and then they go to school. Then they were back here at 6:30 p.m. for practice. They did that five days a week and then were in here (CHS practice pool) again on Saturday morning when most of their friends were still home in bed. We definitely appreciate Coshocton opening this up to us and letting us come in here and use their facilities. Without that, who knows where we would go or if we would even have a program. We really appreciate that. I’m just so proud, I don’t care what happens Thursday or Friday (at state); if we advance to Friday it will be icing on the cake. If they do advance to Friday and place in the top 16 that would be All Ohio and that would be an awesome way to end the season, but we’re really proud regardless. We definitely appreciate all the support that we’ve had throughout the year, from folks in the county all the way to grandparents and moms and dads coming to watch us. Without that support it would be hard to travel where we travel.” Update! RV swim relay teams end successful season at state semi-finals

The first River View High School swim teams to qualify for the OHSAA State Championship Swimming finals came up a few seconds short of making the Division 2 finals last week in Canton. The boys 200 medley relay of senior Zach Elson, senior Wade Garrett, junior Coleston Pope, and sophomore Tom Arthan finished 23rd in the state with a time of 1:43.65 behind Celina 1:43.21, Rocky River 1:42.90, Tippecanoe 1:42.65, Sandusky 1:42.54, Granville 1:42.46, and Colonel Crawford at 1:42.44 all missing the finals. The same four young men missed the finals in the boys 400 yard freestyle relay finishing 22nd in the state swimming a faster time than they did in the District finals. The River View semi-final time was 3:24.95 finishing behind Bowling Green 3:24.42, Dayton Carroll 3:24.12, Granville 3:23.43, Bellbrook 3:22.81, and Grandview Heights 3:22.40, who all missed the final 16 team cut that made the finals. The state tournament ended a fantastic record setting season for the “Fantastic Four” of Elson, Garrett, Pope, and Arthan and a very successful year for River View swimming. Team records were set in the 200 Medley Relay, 200 IM, 50 Freestyle, 100 Butterfly, 100 Backstroke, 100 Breaststroke, and 400 Freestyle Relay. ECOL records were broken or set in the 200 Medley Relay, 200 IM, 100 fly, and 400 Freestyle Relay. On the girls side team and ECOL records were set in the 200 Freestyle and 500 Freestyle. River View also had the ECOL swimmer of the year in Lydia Els. River View also qualified 16 swimmers for the District, the most ever, and had two relay teams qualify for the State Finals for the first time to conclude a fantastic swimming season.

Area organizations join to serve breakfast for only a dollarBY MARK FORTUNE

The Ridgewood FFA chapter, working together with the Coshocton County Farm Bureau, served a Farmer’s Breakfast Feb. 25, at the Career Center. With several area organizations helping sponsor the event, dozens of area residents enjoyed a breakfast of hot cakes, sausage, scrambled eggs, juice, milk and coffee served by members of the Ridgewood FFA and local Farm Bureau. Seth Finton, President of the Ridgewood FFA chapter, said, “We came together with the local Farm Bureau to serve breakfast for only one dollar. We have various displays from several area ag businesses and the Frontier Power Company provided a coupon for Whit’s to the first three hundred participants. It’s a dollar because that’s approximately how much a farmer would receive from this meal; from growing and raising these products.” I thought this was a good opportunity for us to work with the Farm Bureau and something I thought we could pull off and would do well. I would like to thank everyone for helping – we all came together to make this work. It’s truly two organizations working together today,” said Finton. A steady stream of hungry participants made

their way past displays from the Farm Bureau, Soil and Water Conservation District and others before receiving their breakfast. By 9 a.m. the room was buzzing with activity and people enjoying a hot breakfast. Rick Haines, President of the Coshocton County Farm Bureau, said, “We wanted to let the community know that the dollar is what the farmer receives for all the ingredients that go into the breakfast. That’s what the farmer gets;

the rest is transportation, packaging and other things. We wanted to give the community a good breakfast for a good price. Thanks to everyone for coming out and it looks like a good turnout so far.” You can follow the Farm Bureau on Facebook.

Finton Equipment closingCONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

After serving Coshocton and the surrounding area for more than 45 years, Finton Equipment has made the difficult decision to close its Coshocton store Friday, March 16. The closing is due to changing business conditions in the Coshocton market and John Deere’s dealership strategy which no longer includes a Coshocton store. Although Finton will retain ownership of the real estate, the Coshocton business will be absorbed by Finton’s Zanesville store, which is being sold to JD Equipment of London, Ohio. Zanesville will be JD Equipment’s eighth store location in Ohio. Kevin and Kent Finton, along with most of the current staff, will be joining JD Equipment’s team and look forward to working with all of Finton’s former customers. The Finton family and staff expresses its thanks and appreciation to the community for its support.

Bowling For Kids fundraiser approaching CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

The Mentoring Center of Coshocton County is conducting the 31th annual Bowling For Kids event Friday and Saturday, March 16-17, at the Coshocton Bowling Lanes. A special school bowl event will be held Friday, March 23, for school aged teams. This year’s “Banking on the Future of Children” theme is meant to emphasize the importance of building a solid foundation for children.

As the agency’s primary fundraiser, Bowling For Kids is responsible for raising more than 50 percent of the agency’s annual budget. The agency has set a goal of $45,000. Funds are raised through the creation of five person teams, who raise money on behalf of the agency. Each adult team member is asked to raise at least $50. Throughout the event, teams will bowl two games, enjoy fresh pizza, listen to music and get a chance at incentives and door prizes. Available bowling times are11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. on both March 16 and March 17. Individuals are encouraged to call 623-8110 to reserve a lane. In addition to donations from bowlers, the event receives support from local sponsors. The 2012 presenting sponsor is Kraft Foods. Corporate sponsors include AEP Ohio, Coshocton Bowling Lanes, Coshocton Elks Lodge #376 Charities, Coshocton Tribune, National Association of Letter Carriers and Rock Tenn. TMCCC is also a United Way agency. Anyone interested in learning more about Bowling For Kids, volunteering or enrolling a child in any of the programs offered by The Mentoring Center of Coshocton County is encouraged to call 623-8110.

Delinquent Land Taxes, by Action in Rem by County Treasurer of Coshocton County, Ohio

Public notice is hereby given that on the 13th day of febru-ary, 2012, the county treasurer of Coshocton County, Ohio, filed a complaint in the Common Pleas Court of Coshocton County, Ohio, at Coshocton, Ohio, for the foreclosure of liens and forfeiture of property for delinquent taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, and interest against certain real property situated in such county, as described in that complaint.

Concert to raise funds for Dollars for Scholars, Club Scion’s scholarship


An evening of musical entertainment featuring music from The Sticks and Stones is planned for Friday, March 16, in the Ridgewood High School Auditorium. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the show will begin at 7 p.m. There will be a food stand available so come early and enjoy dinner before the show. The Sticks and Stones are the acoustic and vocal trio of Bill Price, Skip Anderson and Greg Mann. These three from Newark, started their music careers back in the late 60s. Surviving the psychedelic years and different types of rock and roll, they always found themselves going back to the basics...two acoustic guitars, one bass and three vocals. No gimmicks, no frills, just plain music. They play the classic hits from the 60s and 70s such as James Taylor, Simon & Garfunkle, John Denver and Kenny Rogers. This band has performed for groups as small as 20 to as many as 15,000. Tickets for the show are $6 in advance and are available at Village Market and Buckeye Beverage Barn in West Lafayette. They are also available by calling John Hardesty at 545-9418. Tickets at the door are $8. All proceeds will benefit Dollars for Scholars and Club Scion’s Scholarship Fund. The eighth annual evening of musical entertainment is presented by the West Lafayette Lions Club and Club Scion.
