39, and Pbilip C. Locke, 47,
both o( · ·Cheshire, are
charged with iilegal manufacture of drugs, felonies of
the second degree.
Ratliff was released on a

personal recognizance bond
and.· Locke remained in the
M!lis_s· · County Jail as ·of
Friday afternoon, after they
appeared before Judge
Steven L. Story oil Thursday.
Preliminary
probable
cause hearings in the cases
have been set for Oct. 4, 11nd
public defenders have been
appointed to represent them.
· A charge of permitting
drug abuse filed ·against
Norma · J. Ratliff, ,J3.
Cheshire, was dismissed
Thursday for further consideration by the Meigs County

grand jury. She was identified as the owner of three
mobile homes where materials used in the manufacture
of the drug were found .
Another man, Anthony
Smith, was arrested on an
outstanding bench warrant
and released earlier last
week. Sheriff Robert Beegle
said he will likely be
charged in the drug investigation ~s well.
Sheriff's deputies conducted a search of the residences on Story's Run
Road on Sept. 16, near the

Gallia-Meigs county line,
after subjects questioned in
a traffic stop in Gallia
County provided information about the alleged meth
lab operations·.
A specially-trained crew
from Jackson County, offi.
cers with the Ohio Bureau
of Criminal Investigation
and a private firm from
Avon were charged with
cleanup at the three mobile
homes. They removed
chemicals and appliances
believed to have been used
in the manufacture of

methamphetamine.
The Middleport Volunteer
Fire Department also assisted at the scene, since ~')late­
rials used in the manufacture of the drug are considered both flammable and
explosive .
.. .
Beegle said acetone,
iodine and meth oil. which
is added to ether or other '
chemicals to produce the .
fina I product were found,
but Beegle said it appeared
the operation was for manufacture of meth for personal use.

ANNIE'S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: When I
retired, I wanted to move
closer to my only grandchildren. However, my daughter
said I couldn't live in "her
town" unless·I divorced my
second husband. After
thinking about my difficult
marriage, I decided to get
the divorce, although I have
stayed friends with my ex.
After I moved, my ex
came to visit every few
months. My daughter was
livid. She wouldn't allow
me to see my grandsons for
weeks at a time. She said
she's afraid the ex will murder her family. I don 't know
why she believes this. My
ex has never been physically violent.
Now he is planning to
move to "her town," and I
haven't told her. I worry she
will never let me see the
boys again. Annie, I can't
control where he lives and
don't know why I should be
forced to give up a friendship because of her paranoia. I will never live with
him again, so what business
is it of hers?
1 am handicapped and on
a limited income, so I can't
keep moving away, but I am
desperate enough to consider suicide if she cuts off my
access to those boys. They
are all I live for. I asked my
daughter to go to a therapist
with me, but she refused,
·saying I am the one with the
:problem. Please help. Suicidal in California
Dear Suicidal: Did something happen between your
.daughter and your ex that is
:causing this reaction? If so,
:she should tell you about it.
If not, it would be nice if

she were more compassionate. -You have given your
daujlhter control over your
chmces, and it's making you
depressed and miserable.
Go for counseling without
her. A counselor will help
you take charge of your life
again and find other reasons
to get up in the morning
besides your grandchildren.
Please call today.
Dear Annie: Every year
I receive several gradualion announcements, and
generally, I am/leased to
send a card an check to
the graduate.
• Recently, I received a pre. printed thank-you Jostcard
that was addresse in the
familiar handwriting of the
graduate's mother. Is this
acceptable now? Is it oldfash10ned to think the student should be part of this
process ? I know I will
receive another announcement in four years when this
young man graduates college, and I may be less
eager to send a gift then. Grow Up and Write Your

Dear Grow Up: Of
course the recipient should
acknowledge the gift personally, although too many
parents don't bother teachmg their children the imporlance of expressing gratitude, and when those children are·adults, they haven't
the vaguest sense of obligalion to do so. At least you
received an . acknowledgement of your gift, no matter
how inappropriately done.
Dear Annie: · I just finished reading about "John
and Alice," the annoying
neighbors. My husband also
stares and can say very
inappropriate things . We
also do not have any

.friends. It' s heartbreaking to
see this wonderful man
judged and shunned by peopte who have not taken the
time to find out if there is a
problem. They think he's
strange. He has Asperger's.
My husband is intelligent
. and loving , but has poor
social skills, lacks empathy
and comes across as emotionally immature. Yet he
has the biggest heart and
gentlest soul. Every time
someone makes a negative
commen! about him, it tears
my hean up. I wish people
would walk in someone
else's shoes before assuming someone isn't worth
knowing. I admit it isn ' t
easy at times, but the joy
and love he gives· me is
wonh it. - Indiana
Dear Indiana: We realize you may be reluctant to
let people know your busband has Asperger's, but
then you cannot expect
them to be understanding
when he behaves in socially
inappropriate ways. If there
are people you would like
to spend more time with,
tell them what's going on
and give them the opportunity 10 appreciate your husband's good qualities the
way you do.

ANNIE'S MAILBOX

BY KATHY MtTCHEU
AND MARCY SUGAR

I
I

I

Dear Annie: When I
retired, I wanted to move
closer to my only grandchildren. However, my daughter
said I couldn't live in "her
town" unless·I divorced my
second husband. After
thinking about my difficult
marriage, I decided to get
the divorce, although I have
stayed friends with my ex.
After I moved, my ex
came to visit every few
months. My daughter was
livid. She wouldn't allow
me to see my grandsons for
weeks at a time. She said
she's afraid the ex will murder her family. I don 't know
why she believes this. My
ex has never been physically violent.
Now he is planning to
move to "her town," and I
haven't told her. I worry she
will never let me see the
boys again. Annie, I can't
control where he lives and
don't know why I should be
forced to give up a friendship because of her paranoia. I will never live with
him again, so what business
is it of hers?
1 am handicapped and on
a limited income, so I can't
keep moving away, but I am
desperate enough to consider suicide if she cuts off my
access to those boys. They
are all I live for. I asked my
daughter to go to a therapist
with me, but she refused,
·saying I am the one with the
:problem. Please help. Suicidal in California
Dear Suicidal: Did something happen between your
.daughter and your ex that is
:causing this reaction? If so,
:she should tell you about it.
If not, it would be nice if

she were more compassionate. -You have given your
daujlhter control over your
chmces, and it's making you
depressed and miserable.
Go for counseling without
her. A counselor will help
you take charge of your life
again and find other reasons
to get up in the morning
besides your grandchildren.
Please call today.
Dear Annie: Every year
I receive several gradualion announcements, and
generally, I am/leased to
send a card an check to
the graduate.
• Recently, I received a pre. printed thank-you Jostcard
that was addresse in the
familiar handwriting of the
graduate's mother. Is this
acceptable now? Is it oldfash10ned to think the student should be part of this
process ? I know I will
receive another announcement in four years when this
young man graduates college, and I may be less
eager to send a gift then. Grow Up and Write Your
Own Notes ·
Dear Grow Up: Of
course the recipient should
acknowledge the gift personally, although too many
parents don't bother teachmg their children the imporlance of expressing gratitude, and when those children are·adults, they haven't
the vaguest sense of obligalion to do so. At least you
received an . acknowledgement of your gift, no matter
how inappropriately done.
Dear Annie: · I just finished reading about "John
and Alice," the annoying
neighbors. My husband also
stares and can say very
inappropriate things . We
also do not have any

.friends. It' s heartbreaking to
see this wonderful man
judged and shunned by peopte who have not taken the
time to find out if there is a
problem. They think he's
strange. He has Asperger's.
My husband is intelligent
. and loving , but has poor
social skills, lacks empathy
and comes across as emotionally immature. Yet he
has the biggest heart and
gentlest soul. Every time
someone makes a negative
commen! about him, it tears
my hean up. I wish people
would walk in someone
else's shoes before assuming someone isn't worth
knowing. I admit it isn ' t
easy at times, but the joy
and love he gives· me is
wonh it. - Indiana
Dear Indiana: We realize you may be reluctant to
let people know your busband has Asperger's, but
then you cannot expect
them to be understanding
when he behaves in socially
inappropriate ways. If there
are people you would like
to spend more time with,
tell them what's going on
and give them the opportunity 10 appreciate your husband's good qualities the
way you do.

the layperson, like a big
black square, and quietly
think: "Maybe the actual
painting is on the other
side."· I especially have a
problem with modernistic
sculptures, the kind where
you, the layperson, cannot
be sure whether you're
looking at a work of an or a
· crashed alien spacecraft.
My definition of a good
sculpture is "a sculpture
that looks at least vaguely
like something." I'm talking about a sculpture like
Michelangelo's "David."
You look at that, and there
is no doubt about what the
anist's message is. It is:
"Here's a naked man the
size of an oil derrick."
1 bring this topic up
because of an interesting
incident that occurred
recently in Miami. When
people ask me, "Dave, why
do you choose voluntarily
to live in Miami?" I
answer, "Because interesting incidents are always
occurring here." For example, just recently (digression alen) federal agents
here arrested two men on
charges of attempting to
illegally sell weapons.
"Big deal!" you'are saying. "Federal agents in
many cities regularly
arrest people for illegally

Barry

selling weapons!"
Right. But these were
nuclear weapons. 1 swear I
am not making this up. The
two
suspects
are
Lithuanian nationals; they
were allegedly working on
a deal to sell undercover
agents some Russian-made
tactical nuclear weapons.
Call me a Nervous
Nellie, but I am concerned
about the sale of nuclear
arms in my general neighborhood, I say this because
of the popular Miami tradition, which I am also not
making up, of celebratip.g
festive occasions by discharging weapons into the
air. 1 am picturing a seenario wherein some Miami
guy chugs one too many
botiles of wine at his New
Year's pany, and when the
clock strikes midnight, he
staggers over to the closet
where he keeps his tactical
nuclear weapon - which
he told his wife he was
buying strictly for personal
protection - and he says
to himself, "I wonder how
that baby would sound!"
But my point (end of
di~ression alert) is that
· M1ami tends to have these
interesting incidents, and

one of them occurred a little while ago when Dade
County purchased an office
building from the City of
Miami. The problem was
that, squatting in an area
that the county wanted to
convert into office space,
there was a large ugly wad
of metal, set into the concrete. So the county sent
construction workers with
heavy equipment to rip out
the wad, which was then
going to be destroyed.
But guess what? Correct I
It tCtrns out that this was no1
an ugly wad. It was an!
Specifically, it was Public
Art, de.fined as "an that is
purchased by experts who
are not spending their own
personal money." The
money, of course, comes
from the taxpayers, who
are not allowed to spend
this money themselves
because I) they probably
wouldn't buy an, and 2) if
they did, there is no way
they would buy the
crashed-spaceship style of
an that the expens usually
select for them.
The Miami wad is in fact
a sculpture by the famous
Italian sculptor Pomodoro.
(Like most famous artists,
he is not referred to by .his
first name, although I like
to think it's "Bud.") This
sculpture cost the taxpayers $80,000, which makes
it an important work of art.
In dollar terms, it is 3,200
times as important as a
painting of dogs playing
poker, and more than
5,000 times as important

"

as a velveteen Elvis.
,
Fortunately, before the ,
sculpture was destroyed, ,,
the error was discovered,
and the Pomodoro was
moved to another city
office building, where it .
sits next to (he parking ,
garage , providing great
pleasure to the many tax- .
payers who come. to .
admire it.
I am kidding, of course.
On the day I went to see it,
the sculpture was, like so
many pieces of modern .
taxpayer-purchased public .
an, being totally ignored ,
by the actual taxpaying
public, possibly because it
looks .- and I say this with ·
all due artistic respect for
Bud - like an abandoned ·
air compressor.
So here's what I think: I .
think there should be a law
requiring that all public art
be marked with a large
sign stating something
like: "Notice! This is a :
piece of an! The public ;
should enjoy it the tune of:
80,000 clams!"
•
Also, if there happens to :
be an abandoned air com- :
pressor nearby, it should :
have a sign that says: :
"Notice! This is not art!" :
so the public does not ;
waste time enjoying the ;
wrong thing . The public :
should enjoy what the ~­
experts have decided the :

That's the system we use ·

that employed much of the
northwestern part of the
state in the early 1900s, are
just a few examples,
Wagoner said.
·
The six-member HouseSenate committee has
called on the Ohio
Historical Society and the
Department of Education to
encourage
as
many
Ohioans as possible to
weigh in on a suitable statue. Lawmakers hope fifth
graders, who have an Ohio
history requirement in their
curriculum, will be panicularly active in suggesting
famous figures.
· The Historical Society is

service."
The committee hopes to
collect names over the next
six months and make a formal recommendation to the
state Legislature by March
20, 2008. .
Michael Ring, spokesman
for the Ohio Historical
Society, said he expects
nominations to range from
sharpshooter Annie Oakley
to inventor Thomas Edison
to sports figures such as
Branch Rickey; a baseball
executive who broke the
game's color . barrier by
signing Jackie Robinson.

.

"Hopefully there will be a
mix of women, men,
African-Americans, . p1o,
neers, president~... people
who make history come alive
for Ohioans," Ring said.
The move lo oust Gov.
Allen is part of a growing
trend of states replacing
their statues in the Capitol's
statuary hall to better reflect
America's diversity.
Ari 1864 law allowed
each state to erect statues of
two people notable to its
history, filling the Capitol
with statesmen famous in
that era. But they are hardly
household names today.
Some of the more widely
recognized of the 100 statues inclupe Gen. Robert E.
Lee from Virginia, President
Andrew Jackson from
Tennessee and 18th century
statesman Samuel Adams
from Massachusetts. Others

aren't not well-known.
In 2000, Congress enacted a law allowing legislatures 'to replace their statues ·

Dces public art make sense?
Like many members of
· the uncultured, Cheez-Itconsuming public, I am not
good at grasping modern
art. l' m the type of person
who will stand in front of a
certified modern masterpiece painting that looks, to
the layperson, like a big
black square, and quietly
think: "Maybe the actual
painting is on the other
side."· I especially have a
problem with modernistic
sculptures, the kind where
you, the layperson, cannot
be sure whether you're
looking at a work of an or a
· crashed alien spacecraft.
My definition of a good
sculpture is "a sculpture
that looks at least vaguely
like something." I'm talking about a sculpture like
Michelangelo's "David."
You look at that, and there
is no doubt about what the
anist's message is. It is:
"Here's a naked man the
size of an oil derrick."

because of an interesting
incident that occurred
recently in Miami. When
people ask me, "Dave, why
do you choose voluntarily
to live in Miami?" I
answer, "Because interesting incidents are always
occurring here." For example, just recently (digression alen) federal agents
here arrested two men on
charges of attempting to
illegally sell weapons.
"Big deal!" you'are saying. "Federal agents in
many cities regularly
arrest people for illegally

selling weapons!"
Right. But these were
nuclear weapons. 1 swear I
am not making this up. The
two
suspects
are
Lithuanian nationals; they
were allegedly working on
a deal to sell undercover
agents some Russian-made
tactical nuclear weapons.
Call me a Nervous
Nellie, but I am concerned
about the sale of nuclear
arms in my general neighborhood, I say this because
of the popular Miami tradition, which I am also not
making up, of celebratip.g
festive occasions by discharging weapons into the
air. 1 am picturing a seenario wherein some Miami
guy chugs one too many
botiles of wine at his New
Year's pany, and when the
clock strikes midnight, he
staggers over to the closet
where he keeps his tactical
nuclear weapon - which
he told his wife he was
buying strictly for personal
protection - and he says
to himself, "I wonder how
that baby would sound!"
But my point (end of
di~ression alert) is that
· M1ami tends to have these
interesting incidents, and

one of them occurred a little while ago when Dade
County purchased an office
building from the City of
Miami. The problem was
that, squatting in an area
that the county wanted to
convert into office space,
there was a large ugly wad
of metal, set into the concrete. So the county sent
construction workers with
heavy equipment to rip out
the wad, which was then
going to be destroyed.
But guess what? Correct I
It tCtrns out that this was no1
an ugly wad. It was an!
Specifically, it was Public
Art, de.fined as "an that is
purchased by experts who
are not spending their own
personal money." The
money, of course, comes
from the taxpayers, who
are not allowed to spend
this money themselves
because I) they probably
wouldn't buy an, and 2) if
they did, there is no way
they would buy the
crashed-spaceship style of
an that the expens usually
select for them.
The Miami wad is in fact
a sculpture by the famous
Italian sculptor Pomodoro.
(Like most famous artists,
he is not referred to by .his
first name, although I like
to think it's "Bud.") This
sculpture cost the taxpayers $80,000, which makes
it an important work of art.
In dollar terms, it is 3,200
times as important as a
painting of dogs playing
poker, and more than
5,000 times as important

"

as a velveteen Elvis.
,
Fortunately, before the ,
sculpture was destroyed, ,,
the error was discovered,
and the Pomodoro was
moved to another city
office building, where it .
sits next to (he parking ,
garage , providing great
pleasure to the many tax- .
payers who come. to .
admire it.
I am kidding, of course.
On the day I went to see it,
the sculpture was, like so
many pieces of modern .
taxpayer-purchased public .
an, being totally ignored ,
by the actual taxpaying
public, possibly because it
looks .- and I say this with ·
all due artistic respect for
Bud - like an abandoned ·
air compressor.
So here's what I think: I .
think there should be a law
requiring that all public art
be marked with a large
sign stating something
like: "Notice! This is a :
piece of an! The public ;
should enjoy it the tune of:
80,000 clams!"
•
Also, if there happens to :
be an abandoned air com- :
pressor nearby, it should :
have a sign that says: :
"Notice! This is not art!" :
so the public does not ;
waste time enjoying the ;
wrong thing . The public :
should enjoy what the ~­
experts have decided the :
public should enjoy. :
That's the system we use ·
in this country, and we're :
going to stick with it. At :
least until the public , .
acquires missiles.

northwestern part of the
state in the early 1900s, are
just a few examples,
Wagoner said.
·
The six-member HouseSenate committee has
called on the Ohio
Historical Society and the
Department of Education to
encourage
as
many
Ohioans as possible to
weigh in on a suitable statue. Lawmakers hope fifth
graders, who have an Ohio
history requirement in their
curriculum, will be panicularly active in suggesting
famous figures.
· The Historical Society is

service."
The committee hopes to
collect names over the next
six months and make a formal recommendation to the
state Legislature by March
20, 2008. .
Michael Ring, spokesman
for the Ohio Historical
Society, said he expects
nominations to range from
sharpshooter Annie Oakley
to inventor Thomas Edison
to sports figures such as
Branch Rickey; a baseball
executive who broke the
game's color . barrier by
signing Jackie Robinson.

.

"Hopefully there will be a
mix of women, men,
African-Americans, . p1o,
neers, president~... people
who make history come alive
for Ohioans," Ring said.
The move lo oust Gov.
Allen is part of a growing
trend of states replacing
their statues in the Capitol's
statuary hall to better reflect
America's diversity.
Ari 1864 law allowed
each state to erect statues of
two people notable to its
history, filling the Capitol
with statesmen famous in
that era. But they are hardly
household names today.
Some of the more widely
recognized of the 100 statues inclupe Gen. Robert E.
Lee from Virginia, President
Andrew Jackson from
Tennessee and 18th century
statesman Samuel Adams
from Massachusetts. Others

aren't not well-known.
In 2000, Congress enacted a law allowing legislatures 'to replace their statues ·

fire that killed mom, CSXwork
requires
sisters and 3 others
closings
BY JAMES HANNAH
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

GREEN VILLE- A 10year-old boy accused of
~etl in g a fire that killed his
mot her, sister and three
other children didn ' t
intend for anyone to die,
authorities said .
But Timothy Douglas
Byers was charged with
murder because the deaths
occurred as a result of the
arson,
Darke
County
Prosecutor Richard Howell
said in announcing the
charges Friday.
~
: "This is the most · tragic
and certainly horrifying
(case) that I or anyone else
can remember," Howell told.
the Dayton Daily News. He
said he's not sure why the
fire was started.
: Byers lived in the home
with the victims. The fire
roared through the twostory wood-frame duplex.
Sunday morning.
.
He faces one delinquency
i.:ount of aggravated arson
and five delinquency counts
of murder in Darke County
juvenile court, police Chief
Dennis Butts satd in a statelnent. Butts said the boy
confessed.
· Authorities did not say
how the fire was set.
~ Byers will be held at the
West Central Juvemle
Detention Facility in Troy.
It wasn't immediately clear
what kind of penalty Byers
faces if convicted.
Byers' mother, Chan an
Palmer, 31, and his sister,
Kaysha Minnich, 8 died in
the fire.
• Also killed were Kayla
Winans, 6, JeShawn Davis,
S, and Jasmine Davis, 3.
They were the children of
Chnsty Winans, 3 J, who
escaped the fire.
: "I don't see how a 10year-old could do that,"
Winans told the Daily
News. "That would have
fJeen my last guess. Me and
my kids had lived with him
ever ' since his Dad pa~sed
away. He's got some tssues,
but in a million years I
wouldn't have thought he
)l'ould do this."
: 1\lso escaping the fire
were Palmer's son and
lvinans' boyfriend.
: The deaths stirred the
!:motions of this rural west-ern Ohio community of
24,000.

"People are heartbroken
with the tragedy," Mayor
Gregory Fraley said earlier
Friday. "And people's
hearts have been troubled
again since we announced
last night that it was intentionally set."
Fraley said he couldn't
remember a tragedy of this
magnitude in the city,
about 30 miles northwest
of Dayton.
At the Broadway Barber
Shop downtown, four men
became animated as they
discussed the deaths.
"It's affected everyone,"
said barber Dan Coffey.
"Anytime .you have children
involved, It's very serious.
It's a shame."
Jason Forbis, a neighbor
of the victims, was one of
the first to arrive at the fire.
He pulled several victims
away from the house and
apphed wet towels.
"I di&lt;ln't sleep for days. I
didn't eat for days," said
Forbis, 32. "I'm having
some nightmares and cold
sweats. It's fresh to me."
Fraley said Red Cross and
Hospice are partnering for
grieving sessions with
neighbors.
A makeshift memorial
across the street from the
house had swelled from a
few stuffed animals on
Monday to a small mo.untain of more than 2SO by
Friday.
Stuffed bears, bunnies
and dogs. in a rainbow of
colors ringed a silver.
maple tree. Pinned to the
tree were photos of the vic·
tims and sheets of paper
offering words of comfort,
includin~ · "God's crying
with us. ' Red and white
candles bled pools of melted wax to the curb.
Residents also were
showing support in other
ways.
The barber shops in town
plan to do a charity cut,
offering $5 haircuts · and
using the money to help pay
for the funerals.
. At Mercer Savings Bank,
a flier in the window with a
photo of the victims urges
residents to donate money
for the funerals. Three yellow deposit cans stand in
the bank lobby.
"I'm very proud of our
community of how they
have rallied together to take
those steps," Fraley said. ·

fire that killed mom, CSXwork
requires
sisters and 3 others
closings
BY JAMES HANNAH
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

GREEN VILLE- A 10year-old boy accused of
~etl in g a fire that killed his
mot her, sister and three
other children didn ' t
intend for anyone to die,
authorities said .
But Timothy Douglas
Byers was charged with
murder because the deaths
occurred as a result of the
arson,
Darke
County
Prosecutor Richard Howell
said in announcing the
charges Friday.
~
: "This is the most · tragic
and certainly horrifying
(case) that I or anyone else
can remember," Howell told.
the Dayton Daily News. He
said he's not sure why the
fire was started.
: Byers lived in the home
with the victims. The fire
roared through the twostory wood-frame duplex.
Sunday morning.
.
He faces one delinquency
i.:ount of aggravated arson
and five delinquency counts
of murder in Darke County
juvenile court, police Chief
Dennis Butts satd in a statelnent. Butts said the boy
confessed.
· Authorities did not say
how the fire was set.
~ Byers will be held at the
West Central Juvemle
Detention Facility in Troy.
It wasn't immediately clear
what kind of penalty Byers
faces if convicted.
Byers' mother, Chan an
Palmer, 31, and his sister,
Kaysha Minnich, 8 died in
the fire.
• Also killed were Kayla
Winans, 6, JeShawn Davis,
S, and Jasmine Davis, 3.
They were the children of
Chnsty Winans, 3 J, who
escaped the fire.
: "I don't see how a 10year-old could do that,"
Winans told the Daily
News. "That would have
fJeen my last guess. Me and
my kids had lived with him
ever ' since his Dad pa~sed
away. He's got some tssues,
but in a million years I
wouldn't have thought he
)l'ould do this."
: 1\lso escaping the fire
were Palmer's son and
lvinans' boyfriend.
: The deaths stirred the
!:motions of this rural west-ern Ohio community of
24,000.

"People are heartbroken
with the tragedy," Mayor
Gregory Fraley said earlier
Friday. "And people's
hearts have been troubled
again since we announced
last night that it was intentionally set."
Fraley said he couldn't
remember a tragedy of this
magnitude in the city,
about 30 miles northwest
of Dayton.
At the Broadway Barber
Shop downtown, four men
became animated as they
discussed the deaths.
"It's affected everyone,"
said barber Dan Coffey.
"Anytime .you have children
involved, It's very serious.
It's a shame."
Jason Forbis, a neighbor
of the victims, was one of
the first to arrive at the fire.
He pulled several victims
away from the house and
apphed wet towels.
"I di&lt;ln't sleep for days. I
didn't eat for days," said
Forbis, 32. "I'm having
some nightmares and cold
sweats. It's fresh to me."
Fraley said Red Cross and
Hospice are partnering for
grieving sessions with
neighbors.
A makeshift memorial
across the street from the
house had swelled from a
few stuffed animals on
Monday to a small mo.untain of more than 2SO by
Friday.
Stuffed bears, bunnies
and dogs. in a rainbow of
colors ringed a silver.
maple tree. Pinned to the
tree were photos of the vic·
tims and sheets of paper
offering words of comfort,
includin~ · "God's crying
with us. ' Red and white
candles bled pools of melted wax to the curb.
Residents also were
showing support in other
ways.
The barber shops in town
plan to do a charity cut,
offering $5 haircuts · and
using the money to help pay
for the funerals.
. At Mercer Savings Bank,
a flier in the window with a
photo of the victims urges
residents to donate money
for the funerals. Three yellow deposit cans stand in
the bank lobby.
"I'm very proud of our
community of how they
have rallied together to take
those steps," Fraley said. ·

fQOtball game.

His goal is to get as many
MHS grads from the '70s,
'80s, '90s and 2000s who
once played in the band to
come back and be a part of
the homecoming celebration. Dt&gt;n' t1iisappoint him.
If you long ago got rid of
your instrument, no prob!em, he says. Sweetman
Music will be at the stadiurn to rent you one_
. Dingess assures the music
won't be difficult, that perfection is not the goal, that
it's all about reuniting and
having fun.
And what' to wear. Well,
the dress is blue jeans and tshirts in maroon, gold or
white. 1\vo practices are set,
but if you can make only
one that's OK, or you can
make none that's still OK.
Just show up, rent yourSelf a
horn, and perform.
Those rehearsals are set
for Oct. 8 at 7 p.m. in the
band room at the high
school, and 5:30 to 6:15
p.m. on the Marauder field
before the game, or you can
pick up _copies of the music
anytime in the band room
·
: and practice at home.
Remember, -it's all about
: sharing an evening of mem: aries and music.

Texanna and Craig
Wehrung really enjoy the
hummingbirds that frequent their' feeder and want
to share some of their ideas
about how to keep the
birds-coming.
They encourage feeding
humingbirds right up to the
time they leave and not just'
until Labor Day, as some
have suggested. Texanna
says they'll leave when
they're ready.
Also, the Wehrungs suggest weekly cleanings of the
feeders, and totally replacing the food (4 J?ariS water
to 1 part sugar, wtth or without red food coloring), and
keeping it well filled daily
to attract more birds_ Her
other suggestion was to
leave feeders out until
freezing weather arrives for
those
stragglers
who
haven't mGved on yet

In 1925, the four best
teams in Cincinnati agreed
to take the best players and
form what came to' be called
the professional Cincinnati
Potters. A "Potter" was the
name of a popular shoe in
the 1920s.
In 1926, the Potters would
hand the Ironton Tanks their
only loss that year. In 1927,
the Cincinnati pro team
became known as the
Cincinnati Home Guards, or
Guards for short. They were
sponsored by the Ohio
National Guard encampment in ·southern Ohio,
hence many games were

even beat the Portsmouth
team; which featured the
great Jim Thorpe, who
despite being in his late 30s
could still hit hard, run fast
and kick long.

hummingbirds that frequent their' feeder and want
to share some of their ideas
about how to keep the

They encourage feeding
humingbirds right up to the
time they leave and not just'
until Labor Day, as some
have suggested. Texanna
says they'll leave when
they're ready.
Also, the Wehrungs suggest weekly cleanings of the
feeders, and totally replacing the food (4 J?ariS water
to 1 part sugar, wtth or without red food coloring), and
keeping it well filled daily
to attract more birds_ Her
other suggestion was to
leave feeders out until
freezing weather arrives for

In 1925, the four best

to take the best players and

In 1926, the Potters would

Before she closes her eyes
at night, 8-month-old Ava
Ruzza listens to mom read
"Goodnight Moon."
Soft music and prayers
help settle Annelise Kelly,
II months. ·
Skipping or shortening
these evening rituals can
mean trouble, their moms
say: for Ava, more wakeups during the night; for
Annelise, a tougher time
winding down.
The bedtime routine has
always been "a peaceful way
to end our day and something
we both enjoyed," says Ava's
mother, Leyna HananRuzza, of Brooklyn, . N.Y.
"But now I know it is a crucial part of her sleep pattern."
She 's
right,
say
researchers . and parenting
experts: The tried-and-true
techniques parents use to
calm lively children before
lights-out can work wonders on infants too.
"Even the youngest baby
will understand that when I
have a bath and get into my
pajamas and listen to these
lullabies, I'm going to
sleep," says Elizabeth
Pantley, author Qf "The NoCry
SleeP.
,Solution"
(McGraw-Hill, 2002 ). "A
routine moves them from
one state to another."
Babies who suck on
books and don't understand
stories may seem too young
to benefit from many parts
of a bedtime routine.
But good sleep habits
established in infancy are
likely to carry over into
childhood and beyond, says
Jodi Mindell, author of
"Sleeping Through the
Night:
How
Infants,
Toddlers, and Their Parents
Can Get a Good Night's
Sleep" (Collins, 2005).
"We know without · a
doubt that just having a bedtime routine has a huge benefit on babies and on
moms," says Mindell, pro·
fessor of psychology at
Saint Joseph's University ·
and associate director of the
Sleep Center at The
Children 's Hospital of
Philadelphia.
She led a 2005-06 study
of 58 infants age 7 months
to 18 months that suggested that babies who have
consistent bedtime routines
fall asleep faster, sleep for
longer stretches and awaken less often at night.
Mothers in the study, funded by Johnson &amp; Johnson,
followed a three-step rou tine with their little ones a bath, a massage with
baby lotion, and a quiet
activity such as readin~ for two weeks. In addllion
to better sleep for their
babies, the moms reported
a reduction in their own
anxiety and fatigue.
Carrie Kelly, of Colorado

Springs, Colo., started a
bedtime routine with newborn Annelise when they
came·home from the hospital. Quiet play ("not roughhousing," says mom), a
bath and a massage precede
story time, prayers and
breastfeeding.
"We try to just keep
things low key, as low key
as you can," Kelly says.
When the routine is disrupted, Annelise may take
45 minutes, as opposed to
the usual 15 or 20, to
move from rocking chair
to crib.
·
A common mistake is
starting the proces·s when
children already are overtired. They have a harder .
time falling asleep and
staying asleep, Mindell
says.
Pantley suggests a bedtime between 6 p.m. and 8
p.m. for infants. The routine, she says, should
begin about an hour before
lights-out.
Early bedtimes also give
moni and dad a much-needed respite. "Parents need
time to wind down and rejuvenate and get ready for
another busy day runninr,
after an 18-month-old,'
Mindell says.
Working parents often
are tempted to keep babies

up later so they can spend
more time with them .
Pantley suggests scheduling a morning playtime
instead.
Other keys to a consistent
bedtime routine:
• Choose three or four
activities that you and your
child enjoy. and do them in
the same order each night. If
y,our baby hates taking a
bath, do that earlier in the
day, Mindell says.
• Tum off the TV. Reading
i_$ .a far better choice for
winding down, experts
agree ..
• Center the routine in the
bedroom, and create a calm
atmosphere. Lights should
be dim, and rnusic soft and
soothing.
• Don 't expect instant
results. Some .children will
show improvement within

a few days of starting a .
routine, while others will ·
take longer.
.
• Don't be discouraged by
bumps in the road. Good
sleep habits often fall apart
when babies are teething or
when they reach developmental milestones such as
sitting, standing and walking, Mindell says. Parents .
should resist the urge · to
change the routine because "
of a few rough nights.
"Consistency is going to .
win," she adds.
• Think of bedtime as
bonding time. "That 30
minutes that I spend .
between 7 and 7:30 reading .
stories and saying prayers '
and rocking, that is some.of '
my favorite time of the
day," Kelly says. "We just '
get to enjoy each other's
company."

the event.
When entering the center Saturday morning,
there could be no mistake
about what kind o'f
reunion was about to take
place. The traditional
bright blue and white col·
ors of Veterans Memorial
Hospital were everywhere.
Table covers were in the .
combination colors, as
were balloons and other
decorations, and the. hospital logo was prominently ,
displayed .
As committee members
put.together the decorations and displ;iys to be
featured, they talked .about
their experiences during
their years · at Veterans

and satisfaction their work
brought into their lives;
and the lifelong fr-iendships
they made.

Linda · .Hudson, who
worked on the skilled nursing wing in housekeeping
for 23 years, was among the
last employees to go.
"When the whole place
shut down, I was one of the
last employees to walk out
the door. That was in Jul~
2002 and it was a sad day, '
she commented.
Sharon Pratt, who started
working there in 1980 as
office manager for the
skilled nursing wing, and
was there when it closed,
said she was working parttime at Holzer while completing her work at Veterans
when she was asked to ·get
everything she needed ou.t

said that was in early
August 2002.

Before she closes her eyes
at night, 8-month-old Ava
Ruzza listens to mom read
"Goodnight Moon."
Soft music and prayers
help settle Annelise Kelly,
II months. ·
Skipping or shortening
these evening rituals can
mean trouble, their moms
say: for Ava, more wakeups during the night; for
Annelise, a tougher time
winding down.
The bedtime routine has
always been "a peaceful way
to end our day and something
we both enjoyed," says Ava's
mother, Leyna HananRuzza, of Brooklyn, . N.Y.
"But now I know it is a crucial part of her sleep pattern."
She 's
right,
say
researchers . and parenting
experts: The tried-and-true
techniques parents use to
calm lively children before
lights-out can work wonders on infants too.
"Even the youngest baby
will understand that when I
have a bath and get into my
pajamas and listen to these
lullabies, I'm going to
sleep," says Elizabeth
Pantley, author Qf "The NoCry
SleeP.
,Solution"
(McGraw-Hill, 2002 ). "A
routine moves them from
one state to another."
Babies who suck on
books and don't understand
stories may seem too young
to benefit from many parts
of a bedtime routine.
But good sleep habits
established in infancy are
likely to carry over into
childhood and beyond, says
Jodi Mindell, author of
"Sleeping Through the
Night:
How
Infants,
Toddlers, and Their Parents
Can Get a Good Night's
Sleep" (Collins, 2005).
"We know without · a
doubt that just having a bedtime routine has a huge benefit on babies and on
moms," says Mindell, pro·
fessor of psychology at
Saint Joseph's University ·
and associate director of the
Sleep Center at The
Children 's Hospital of
Philadelphia.
She led a 2005-06 study
of 58 infants age 7 months
to 18 months that suggested that babies who have
consistent bedtime routines
fall asleep faster, sleep for
longer stretches and awaken less often at night.
Mothers in the study, funded by Johnson &amp; Johnson,
followed a three-step rou tine with their little ones a bath, a massage with
baby lotion, and a quiet
activity such as readin~ for two weeks. In addllion
to better sleep for their
babies, the moms reported
a reduction in their own
anxiety and fatigue.
Carrie Kelly, of Colorado

Springs, Colo., started a
bedtime routine with newborn Annelise when they
came·home from the hospital. Quiet play ("not roughhousing," says mom), a
bath and a massage precede
story time, prayers and
breastfeeding.
"We try to just keep
things low key, as low key
as you can," Kelly says.
When the routine is disrupted, Annelise may take
45 minutes, as opposed to
the usual 15 or 20, to
move from rocking chair
to crib.
·
A common mistake is
starting the proces·s when
children already are overtired. They have a harder .
time falling asleep and
staying asleep, Mindell
says.
Pantley suggests a bedtime between 6 p.m. and 8
p.m. for infants. The routine, she says, should
begin about an hour before
lights-out.
Early bedtimes also give
moni and dad a much-needed respite. "Parents need
time to wind down and rejuvenate and get ready for
another busy day runninr,
after an 18-month-old,'
Mindell says.
Working parents often
are tempted to keep babies

up later so they can spend
more time with them .
Pantley suggests scheduling a morning playtime
instead.
Other keys to a consistent
bedtime routine:
• Choose three or four
activities that you and your
child enjoy. and do them in
the same order each night. If
y,our baby hates taking a
bath, do that earlier in the
day, Mindell says.
• Tum off the TV. Reading
i_$ .a far better choice for
winding down, experts
agree ..
• Center the routine in the
bedroom, and create a calm
atmosphere. Lights should
be dim, and rnusic soft and
soothing.
• Don 't expect instant
results. Some .children will
show improvement within

a few days of starting a .
routine, while others will ·
take longer.
.
• Don't be discouraged by
bumps in the road. Good
sleep habits often fall apart
when babies are teething or
when they reach developmental milestones such as
sitting, standing and walking, Mindell says. Parents .
should resist the urge · to
change the routine because "
of a few rough nights.
"Consistency is going to .
win," she adds.
• Think of bedtime as
bonding time. "That 30
minutes that I spend .
between 7 and 7:30 reading .
stories and saying prayers '
and rocking, that is some.of '
my favorite time of the
day," Kelly says. "We just '
get to enjoy each other's
company."

and co-diretted by Burns
$!ld.Lynn Novick, it airs on
PBS' Sunday through
Wednesday, then Sept. 30 to
bet. 2, at 8 p.m. EDT; check
local listings.)
. "The War" has been in
tile works since 2000.
Burns began it before 9/11
and, thus, before the Iraq
}Var, which has given his
filin bleak, unanticipated
~urrency.

• How did he begin such a
mission?
~ "Intimately, always," he

says.
: As he explains in a recent
lilterview, the first step was

t:

choosing four American
towns to draw from:
Mobile, Ala.; Sacramento,
Calif.; Waterbury, Conn.;
and the tiny farming community of Luverne, Minn.
"We picked them, more or
less randomly, then went to
those towns and learned
everything we could about
them and the people who
lived there," Burns says.
"With the home front, we
could anchor not only the
emotional experience, but
also the chronological experience, of the war."
Early
in
Sunday's
episode, "A Necessary
War," the narrator intones:
"The Second World War
brought out the best and the
worst in a generation, and
blurred the two so that'they
became, at times, almost
indistinguishable."
With that proviso, the
terms are set for what follows. "The War" is a towering tribute. But the war
Burns marshals us through
is necessary - not, as some
might prefer to think,
"jlood." This film, however
b1g~hearted, is no sentimental Journey.
True to his plan, Burns
begins his massive saga
almost microscopically with Glenn Frazier, who
was a 16-year-old Alabama
lad in 1941.
With obvious wonder,
Burns, . 54, fast-forwards
through Frazier's war years
for a reporter: "His girlfriend since the frrst grade
says, 'Well, I like you as a
friend, but ... .' Then, upset,
he busts up a bar. Then, the
next day, he volunteers for
the Army, and he's sent to
the Philippines, where he's
in the Bataan Death March,
and then dit~ging his grave
for his immment death, and
then a POW in Japan for
years. And then, the next
moment, he's home.

"The whole war," says
Burns, ''is contained within
the arc of his experience."
Six decades later, Glenn ·
Frazier (along with some 40
more witnesses) is on the
screen to tell us about it.
We will ·encounter many
other things, of course. The
historical footage and photos; the war sounds and the
lush musical score; the
evocative riarration. But the
people Burns has interviewed give "The War" its
immediacy - and reaching
them in time only heightened the urgency for him to
make his film.
A thousand veterans are
dying each day, says
Burns. "In a few more
years, they will be gone.
Then the Second World
War will be the province of
historians, who, however
well, will nonetheless be
abstracting it."
.
The four towns (and the
stories their citizens tell)
rovide the driving force of
P.The
War." That's what
defines it, regardless of who
these witnesses are.
·
Even so, .Burns was criticized some months ago for
overlooking the role 9f .
Hispanics who fought in the ;
war. He calls the uproar "a ·
very difficult and challenging circumstance," and it
resulted in his adding 30
minutes of material as
codas to chapters I, 5 and 6
that ttll of two Hispanic
veterans, as well as an
American Indian who, in
battle, drew on his own
tribe's warrior tradition.
Burns is pleased to add
these stories, he insists,
while noting, "We don't
!lave a German-American
family. We don't have
French-Americans, or an
Irishman," among many
groups he mentions that
aren't singled out. "We didn't tell LOTS of stories!"

Regis Philbin comes up a loser once again as
his talk show presents annual 'Reily Awards'
NEW YORK (AP) Regis Philbin can't get a
break.
The 76-year-old talkshow host was overlooked
yet a~ain for the "Best
Regis' award during the
fifth annual Reily Awards,
announced Friday on "Live
With Regis and Kelly."
"A loser agairi - four
straight years," said Philbin.
The "Best Regis" category
was iatroduced in 2004.
The honors went to Neil
Patrick Harris, who was
among the show's guest hosts
while Philbin was recovering
from triple heart bypass
swgery earlier this year.
In his acceptance speech,

the 34-year-old actor
thanked Philbin's "ticker"
for "failing now and again,"
giving him a chance to guest
host. He also thanked cohost Kelly Ripa for being a
"sweet, sweet kisser."
Philbin has also been
by
Darrell
bested
Hammond, Jimmy Fallon·
and Mark Consuelos, who is
Ripa's husband.
The Reli.ys, which include
categories such ·as ''Favorite
Real Person" and "Best Wild
&amp; Wacky," were created as
an antidote to the show's failure to win a Daytime Emmy.
Winners take away
"Golden Stools," a. trophysized version of the show •s

seats for the co-hosts and
their guests. The awards are
decided by viewer votes.
This year, Ripa, 36, won
Rellys for her supermodel
walk at New York Fashion
Week and for Q1'essing up as
Christina Aguilera for
Halloween.
Other Rellys went to
Howie Mandel for "Funniest
Guest" and "American Idol"
champion Jordin Sparks for
"Best Winning Reality
Guest." Michael· Gelman,
the show's executive producer, picked up a Reily for
his Halloween portrayal of
"Grey's Anatomy" character
Dr. Derek "McDrearny"
Shepherd.

�EN'I'ERTATNMENT
~en Burns brings

'The War' home
fto viewers in an epic documentary
..

• BY FRAZIER MOORE
N' TELfVISION WRITER

' • .NEW YORK - During
15 hours over seven nights,
l(en Burns' much-awaited
liocumentary immerses us
in World War ll.
·· The enormity of that war
.;_ which placed the world's
future in doubt while claiming at least 50 million lives
-· is something most of us
lake for granted, even with
it shrinking in the rearview
prirror of our collective consciousness.
. But Burns' "The War"
111eans to restore it to the
here-and-now for us to see
with new eyes. And he does
If in a way that, by now,
many viewers expect, even
~unt on: By giving it the
~en Burns treatment.
· Story-driven and deliberitte, yet lyric. Sweeping in
$cope but highly personal.
Very; very long. These are
words applied \O his past
tniniseries,
hu2e-topic
films like "Jazz:"' "The
)Vest," "Baseball" and
''The Civil War."
; The same adjectives fit
me War," which inter~eaves the European and
t:acific conflicts, braide.d
with the war experience
~re at home. (Co-produced
and co-diretted by Burns
$!ld.Lynn Novick, it airs on
PBS' Sunday through
Wednesday, then Sept. 30 to
bet. 2, at 8 p.m. EDT; check
local listings.)
. "The War" has been in
tile works since 2000.
Burns began it before 9/11
and, thus, before the Iraq
}Var, which has given his
filin bleak, unanticipated
~urrency.

• How did he begin such a
mission?
~ "Intimately, always," he

says.
: As he explains in a recent
lilterview, the first step was

t:

choosing four American
towns to draw from:
Mobile, Ala.; Sacramento,
Calif.; Waterbury, Conn.;
and the tiny farming community of Luverne, Minn.
"We picked them, more or
less randomly, then went to
those towns and learned
everything we could about
them and the people who
lived there," Burns says.
"With the home front, we
could anchor not only the
emotional experience, but
also the chronological experience, of the war."
Early
in
Sunday's
episode, "A Necessary
War," the narrator intones:
"The Second World War
brought out the best and the
worst in a generation, and
blurred the two so that'they
became, at times, almost
indistinguishable."
With that proviso, the
terms are set for what follows. "The War" is a towering tribute. But the war
Burns marshals us through
is necessary - not, as some
might prefer to think,
"jlood." This film, however
b1g~hearted, is no sentimental Journey.
True to his plan, Burns
begins his massive saga
almost microscopically with Glenn Frazier, who
was a 16-year-old Alabama
lad in 1941.
With obvious wonder,
Burns, . 54, fast-forwards
through Frazier's war years
for a reporter: "His girlfriend since the frrst grade
says, 'Well, I like you as a
friend, but ... .' Then, upset,
he busts up a bar. Then, the
next day, he volunteers for
the Army, and he's sent to
the Philippines, where he's
in the Bataan Death March,
and then dit~ging his grave
for his immment death, and
then a POW in Japan for
years. And then, the next
moment, he's home.

"The whole war," says
Burns, ''is contained within
the arc of his experience."
Six decades later, Glenn ·
Frazier (along with some 40
more witnesses) is on the
screen to tell us about it.
We will ·encounter many
other things, of course. The
historical footage and photos; the war sounds and the
lush musical score; the
evocative riarration. But the
people Burns has interviewed give "The War" its
immediacy - and reaching
them in time only heightened the urgency for him to
make his film.
A thousand veterans are
dying each day, says
Burns. "In a few more
years, they will be gone.
Then the Second World
War will be the province of
historians, who, however
well, will nonetheless be
abstracting it."
.
The four towns (and the
stories their citizens tell)
rovide the driving force of
P.The
War." That's what
defines it, regardless of who
these witnesses are.
·
Even so, .Burns was criticized some months ago for
overlooking the role 9f .
Hispanics who fought in the ;
war. He calls the uproar "a ·
very difficult and challenging circumstance," and it
resulted in his adding 30
minutes of material as
codas to chapters I, 5 and 6
that ttll of two Hispanic
veterans, as well as an
American Indian who, in
battle, drew on his own
tribe's warrior tradition.
Burns is pleased to add
these stories, he insists,
while noting, "We don't
!lave a German-American
family. We don't have
French-Americans, or an
Irishman," among many
groups he mentions that
aren't singled out. "We didn't tell LOTS of stories!"

Regis Philbin comes up a loser once again as
his talk show presents annual 'Reily Awards'
NEW YORK (AP) Regis Philbin can't get a
break.
The 76-year-old talkshow host was overlooked
yet a~ain for the "Best
Regis' award during the
fifth annual Reily Awards,
announced Friday on "Live
With Regis and Kelly."
"A loser agairi - four
straight years," said Philbin.
The "Best Regis" category
was iatroduced in 2004.
The honors went to Neil
Patrick Harris, who was
among the show's guest hosts
while Philbin was recovering
from triple heart bypass
swgery earlier this year.
In his acceptance speech,

the 34-year-old actor
thanked Philbin's "ticker"
for "failing now and again,"
giving him a chance to guest
host. He also thanked cohost Kelly Ripa for being a
"sweet, sweet kisser."
Philbin has also been
by
Darrell
bested
Hammond, Jimmy Fallon·
and Mark Consuelos, who is
Ripa's husband.
The Reli.ys, which include
categories such ·as ''Favorite
Real Person" and "Best Wild
&amp; Wacky," were created as
an antidote to the show's failure to win a Daytime Emmy.
Winners take away
"Golden Stools," a. trophysized version of the show •s

seats for the co-hosts and
their guests. The awards are
decided by viewer votes.
This year, Ripa, 36, won
Rellys for her supermodel
walk at New York Fashion
Week and for Q1'essing up as
Christina Aguilera for
Halloween.
Other Rellys went to
Howie Mandel for "Funniest
Guest" and "American Idol"
champion Jordin Sparks for
"Best Winning Reality
Guest." Michael· Gelman,
the show's executive producer, picked up a Reily for
his Halloween portrayal of
"Grey's Anatomy" character
Dr. Derek "McDrearny"
Shepherd.

; Bernard V. FultZ

Improvement Corporation
(CIC). "He was a great philanthmpist and there isn't one
person out there that can

make up for the loss to this
,community."
One of his most recent gifts
was $200,000 to the ere for
the construction of the new
University of Rio Grande
Branch building near Meigs
Hi$h School. At that recognition celebration in July,
Reed an11ounced that the
Branch would be named the
"Bernard V. Fultz Center of
Higher Education." Reed
noted that Fult21.' was a
founder of the ere in the
1960s.
Mr. Fultz 'contributed
extensively to many individuals, organizations · and
churches, usually anonymous, over the years. Meigs
County Commissioner Mii::k

Davenport remarking on his
generosity to the courthouse
and in the community said
that he insisted nobQdy
know. "All we could do was
to say 'thank you' to this
man who might well be
called "Mr. Anonymous."
At the recent Bar
Association recognition of
Fultz, Horace Karr described
him "the best thing which
ever happened to Meigs
County" while former
Commissioner
Richard
Jones called him "a giant of a
man who played a prominent
role in the community."
The Fultz family moved to
Meigs County in 1956 after
Bernard graduated from the
Ohio State University Law

School. He joined, the practice of Manning Webster for
a time, was elected prpsecutor for several terms, and
then went into a private law
practice.
Despite hi s illness, Mr.
Fultz continued his practice
until only recently. His life
was one of service, not only
to his profession but to the
organizations of which he
was a member including
Middleport-Pomeroy Rotary
Club, the University of Rio
Grande Board of Trustees,
and the Columbus Regional
Board of Review of the Ohio
Industrial Commission.
He will be missed.
