POMEROY — The staff of OhioMeansJobs Meigs County recently met with the Meigs County Commissioners as they recognized Workforce Development Month. Program Administrator Theresa Lavender was joined my OhioMeansJobs staff, Meigs County Department of Job and Family Services Director Chris Shank and Laurie McKnight, Area 14 Workforce Policy Board Director, to discuss the work of the agency to help job seekers in the area. According to information provided in the proclamation for September 2019 as Workforce Development Month, in 2018, a total of 3,319 job seekers visited the OMJ Center in Middleport, including 701 individuals attending workshops or trainings, 1,982 individuals utilizing the resource room, and 1,305 individuals receiving services from partner agencies. Additionally, the OMJ Meigs Center worked with 70 different employers in 2018. Among the other highlights for the agency over the past year have been the Careerpalooza at Southern High School, and working with the job shadowing program which is being launched as the idea of Meigs Principal Travis Abbot to include all three school districts. The agency also has increased on the job training contracts for employers and See WORKFORCE | 5 Issues with lead water lines in Middleport By Kayla Hawthorne Special to the Sentinel MIDDLEPORT — The Middleport Village Council discussed issues with lead water lines and understaffing in the jail during its meeting on Monday evening. Village Administrator Joe Woodall told council that occasionally when his department repairs a water line, they discover that the pipe is lead. When they find lead pipes, Woodall and his employees will remove the line and replace it with plastic. However, Woodall believes there are 250 to 300 lead service lines in the village. Woodall said that his goal would be to remove all the lead lines as well as increase the water flow to fire hydrants, all by replacing the current lines with new plastic pipes. Woodall believes that a project of this kind would cost near $4 million. He feels confident that the village would qualify for a loan program through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which could allow them to complete the project with zero interest and partial principal forgiveness. Council unanimously adopted a resolution that allows Woodall and Mayor Sandy Iannarelli to apply for a loan to complete the planning and designing of this project. The design work is estimated to cost around $378,000, but would not require a payment until July 2020. The designs need to be completed before applying for the EPA loan, which is due in March 2020. Also during the meeting, Jail Administrator and Assistant Police Chief Mony Wood explained the understaffing issues at the jail. Wood said he believes part of the issue is due to the low wages the village is offering to employees. Corrections officers for the jail get paid $9.75, or $10.25 if they get certified, according to Wood. He said people either will not take the job, or they will quit after a few months. Wood said it is a safety concern to not have enough staffing at the jail when they are housing inmates. Currently the jail has 12 inmates, but Wood said he will not keep the jail at full capacity because of understaffing.

TEAM 53 to walk to end Alzheimer’s Locals to attend Athens event Staff Report ATHENS — What do you think when you see and hear the TV commercial that states “the first person to survive Alzheimer’s Disease is out there?” Do you pause for a moment? Does your heart skip a beat? Do you quickly change the channel and put the thought from your mind? Do you wonder if the first survivor could be you, or someone you love? Just the thought of Alzheimer’s Disease is frightening, and every 65 seconds, someone in the United States develops Alzheimer’s. An estimated 5.7 million Americans are living with the disease, and some of those individuals are here in Meigs County. Alzheimer’s is the most expensive disease in the U.S. and the sixth leading cause of death. It’s also the only cause of death among the top 10 without a way to prevent, cure or even slow its progression. Which is why on Saturday, Sept. 28, area residents are being asked to join Meigs County’s TEAM 53 in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Such walks will take place on this day all over the United States, and TEAM 53 will walk with other teams from southeastern Ohio. Anyone wishing to donate or walk, or both, may either register at alz.org/walk, or just show up at the Athens Community Center, 701 East State St., on the morning of the event. Registration begins at 9 a.m. with the approxi- mately three-mile walk starting at 10:30 a.m. The walk is free to enter and anyone who raises $100 will receive a Walk to End Alzheimer’s t-shirt. The Walk on Sept. 28 is the nation’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research. And because Alzheimer’s poses many questions, experts are available 24/7 at the Helpline: (800) 2723900, and at alz.org/ cincinnati. Information and photos provided by Nancy Pedigo.

MIDDLEPORT — Mill Street “Middleport Hill” is closed due to a slip until further notice. Tickets will be issued to those who drive through the closed portion of the road. BEND AREA — Mason County schools in the Bend Area had a rough start on Tuesday, as one was dismissed for having no water, and the other evacuated due to a burning smell. New Haven Elementary School students were sent back to their homes at around 9:30 a.m., after water was shut off due to the ongoing town water project. According to New Haven Recorder Roberta Hysell, workers hit a main water line on Rt. 62. Water was off for a little over two hours before being restored. NHES Principal Walter Raynes said upon notification that the water was going to be off for at least two hours, he called the school superintendent and the decision was made to close the school. Raynes said it is very hard to tell students, especially the younger ones, that they can’t use the restroom facilities for that long. Also, lunchtime begins at 11 a.m. at the school. Hysell said residents can stay updated on water outages and boil water advisories by going to the town website at www.townofnewhavenwv.com The site is updated immediately as to any issues, she said. Also, notifications will be sent out on the Code Red system by Mason County Emergency Management Director Dennis Zimmerman. Hysell urged residents to sign up for Code Red notifications. Meanwhile, at 9:42 a.m., the county 911 center received a call from Wahama High School, stating there was an odor of something burning or hot within the school, according to Mason Volunteer Fire Department Chief C.R. Blake. Blake said firemen were on the scene within minutes, and found the school had already been evacuated of all students and staff. Because of the daytime hours causing low manpower, Blake said both New Haven and Pomeroy departments were called in to assist at the school. He said the school was completely searched, and firefighters found a computer in one of the classrooms had malfunctioned and overheated. Blake said there was no fire, and no other damage was incurred. Students returned to their classes to complete the remainder of the day.

Mark Porter Chrysler Dodge Jeep and Ram we make car dreams come true �Opinion 4 Wednesday, September 25, 2019 Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW A great tree you’ve never heard of A century ago, the streets and parklands of America were lined with stately Elm trees. Elms are loved for their graceful shape, with branches like spreading fountains, and their green leaves that turn gold in fall. They are ideal street trees because their upward arching limbs don’t interfere with traffic, requiring very little pruning to maintain clearance underneath. Sadly, the American elm (Ulmus Steve americana) fell victim to a devBoehme astating pathogen called Dutch Contributing elm disease, which spread rapidly columnist throughout the country the same way the Emerald Ash Borer is killing our native ash trees today. Dutch elm disease was first noticed in continental Europe in 1910, and eventually spread throughout the continent killing millions of trees. It arrived in the United States in 1928, in a shipment of logs from The Netherlands to the Ohio furniture industry. Of the estimated 77 million elms in North America in 1930, over 75% had been lost by 1989. The loss of so many street trees was a tragedy from which many towns and cities still haven’t fully recovered. A major challenge has been finding a comparable shade tree so ideal for lining city streets. Many cities and towns have turned to the Japanese Zelkova, a rugged survivor closely related to elms but resistant to Dutch elm disease. Zelkova tolerates urban conditions well and can be used as a street tree, because it shares the upwardarching growth habit that made American Elm so ideal. Zelkova has interesting bark, clean serrated foliage and good fall color. It has a spreading, upright branching, vase-shaped structure, with a compact crown shorter and more rounded than the American elm. As the tree ages, gray-brown outer bark peels off, exposing an orangish inner bark. Medium green leaves turn to shades of yellow, orange, brown, deep red to reddish-purple in fall. Zelkova tolerates most soil types, but prefers deep, moist, well drained soils. It does well in full sun. Established trees are drought and wind tolerant, resistant to Dutch elm disease, elm leaf beetle and Japanese beetle. Zelkova is a large tree; some varieties can reach 75 feet tall and wide at maturity, but 40-50 feet tall and wide is more common. “Village Green” Zelkova is a popular variety; an excellent shade tree with a spreading habit 40 feet tall and wide at maturity. “Green Vase” is a narrower, more vase-shaped cultivar ideally suited for street tree and driveway planting. “Halka” is similar, but faster-growing than “Green Vase”. “City Sprite” and “Musashino” are smaller Zelkovas, growing less than 20 feet wide, ideal for smaller spaces and lining driveways. Most people scratch their heads when we mention Zelkova because it’s a little-known tree to the general public, however it’s well known to arborists and widely used by city street tree managers. Once you learn to recognize it you’ll see it everywhere, particularly along city streets. We think it will become much more popular in the coming years, as people seek a substitute for the wildly popular Bradford pear, sales of which will be banned in Ohio starting next year because of its invasiveness.

THEIR VIEW A relationship is like a seesaw A relationship is like a seesaw. Two people, very different hopping on the boards. Each one in control of their side of the play. It teeters back and forth balanced by the middle ground. The two people involved have to learn the motions of it. How to lift the other up and how to help each other fall. Gently giving, and reacting to the others motions. Careful to watch and react respectfully. giving.

THEIR VIEW Alice really doesn’t live here any more Here is a real conversation that took place with a representative of a real company. The dialogue, such as it was, occurred between me and a real person after several minutes of repeatedly pushing the number zero on my phone. The issue at hand was an attempt to change the address associated with an annuity account. Because we are beset with scammers and terrorists who apparently use false addresses in Troy, Ohio to access their ill-gotten gains, it takes a great deal of effort (on the customer’s part, of course) to change an address. God help you if you need to change your name. So here, believe it or not, is the short version of what transpired on the phone. Me: (Pushing zero over and over to speak to a customer service representative because nothing on the automated menu remotely meets my needs.)

They have also been working to “think outside the box” and work with other agencies in order to overcome the barriers that are faced by job seekers. OMJ Meigs has been working with Capabilities to provide assistance for job seekers, including career coaching and workshops. The commissioners asked the OMJ staff about the needs they are seeking in job seekers and the obstacles that are standing in the way of individuals gaining employment. Some of the key items touched on which are barriers to employment include: lack of driver’s license, felony records, passing drug tests, transportation and necessary job skills. The need for public transportation in the area was discussed further, with the commissioners stating that they would help to advocate for funding to work toward a public transportation system in the area. It was noted that Mason County recently began a public transportation system, with the Hocking-Athens-Perry Community Action Agency operating a successful system in Athens County.

The national theme, “Hospitality: Cultivating Space,” recognizes the ministry of chaplains arising out of their concern for common human spirit. As chaplains enter the lives of others who may be sick or hurting, they attempt to create space for acceptance, reflection, and healing. With their presence, chaplains bring physical space, even when silent, where patients, family and staff can feel safe to express their feelings and spirit, thereby promoting positive medical responses and spiritual healing. “The annual event is held to show our appreciation for all the chaplains do in caring for our patients,” said Fred Williams, Ph.D., director of chaplaincy, Holzer Health System. “We have numerous chaplains who come into our facilities to provide spiritual guidance to those who request it. And we are blessed with an amazing group of individuals who voluntarily give of their time and talents to provide this essential part of the healing process.” Chaplains recognized include: Honorary Chaplain: Ron Nicholas – 17 years; Active Gallia County Chaplains: Mike Buchanan – new chaplain, Joe Bowers – one year, Ron Bynum – 20 years, Anne Cappelletti – nine years, James Greene – three years, Alfred Holley – 44 years, Bob Hood – nine years, John Jackson – 35 years, Heath Jenkins – 18 years, Craig Klein – one year, Steven McDaniel – two years, Kandy Nuce – 16 years, John O’Brien – nine years, Patrick O’Donnell – nine years, Bob Powell – 23 years, Jamie Sisson – four years, AJ Stack – four years, Vickie Swanson – six years, Ed Valentine – 13 years, and Paul Voss – 18 years. Active Jackson Chaplains include: Bob Anderson – 19 years, Bob Davis – 44 years, Gary Ellis – 12 years, Stan Howard – 16 years, Jane Karl – 28 years, David Kelly – seven years, Susan Morgan – new chaplain, Beverly Morris – 11 years, Hannah Niday – three years, John Rozewicz – eight years.

Active Meigs County Chaplains are James Acree – eight years, Brenda Barnhart – four years, and Bud Randoph – one year. This year, Holzer Chaplain Services recognizes Chaplain John Jackson for his service of 35 years to the organization. Texas born, Pastor Jackson is a graduate of Texas A&M with a BS in rural sociology and a graduate of the US Army Chaplain School, where he specialized in military stress, alcohol addition and crisis counseling. After earning his MDiv at Evangelical Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, he pastored in Indiana for 15 years and then traveled to New Life Lutheran Church in Gallipolis, where he remained for 20 years, and then went to Faith Lutheran in Jackson. Even retired, he continued as an Associate of Special Ministry at NLLC and brought to his chaplain ministry years of knowledge and experience in spiritual counseling, addictions, grief and relationship issues. He is a Kentucky Colonel, received the Ohio Hospital Regency Award in 2000, and was inducted into the Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame in 2009. He and his wife, Carol, are the parents of five children and reside in Gallipolis. Chaplaincy Services provides routine pastoral visitation for patients and residents in each Holzer facility. Emergency pastoral care and intervention can be requested through either the Holzer Operator or the Nursing Administrator.

Pastoral Presence and Prayer provides clinically trained hospital chaplains to patients, their families, and the staff when challenged by circumstances of life that stress human experience to provide emotional comfort and spiritual support. Pastoral Care and Counseling provides the added value of clinically trained chaplains with a faith based perspective in helping patients, their families, and the staff make sense of their circumstances and the opportunity for healing at an emotional and spiritual level. Practical Counseling provides representative ministry at the most crucial moments of life when our patients, their family, and/or the staff experience a significant disruption in the regular, routine aspects of life. Chaplains represent the healthcare system to provide information and interpretation on matters of ethics, patient rights, and responsibilities based on sound teachings, policies, procedures, and practices. Spiritual Assessments provide the medical and nursing staff with an alternative perspective when providing service within the healthcare setting. Spiritual Assessments are based upon a clinical interview with the patient by the chaplain in understanding the patient’s concerns, desires, and needs that may transcend the traditional medical model for care, but that contribute to the plan of care. Conflict Resolution provides a third party intervention into difficult and problematic situations when patients and their families are challenged by healthcare choices. Crisis Intervention and Grief Counseling provides clinically trained hospital chaplains and counselors for those situations that place people in stressful circumstances due to emergencies, trauma, or loss. In both cases, the interventions and counseling are provided within the healthcare facility during the need.
