Editor [email protected]

Mildred Raleigh celebrated her 107th birthday with a celebration in her honor at the Lewis County Nurs-ing Home in Canton. Family and friends gathered to wish Mrs. Ra-leigh a happy day, which she enjoyed very much.

Mrs. Raleigh was born May 5, 1906. She married her husband Pat in 1928 and they drove a horse and buggy to the wedding. Pat died July 27, 1997 at the age of 94.

She lived on the family farm, near Monticello, most of her life, until the last few years where she has resided at the Lewis County Nursing Home. She was a farm wife, raising chil-

dren and working on the farm. She and her husband raised cattle, hogs and chicken. In an interview with the Press-News Journal on her 100 birthday, Mrs. Raleigh said her hus-band had helped put up some electric poles in Lewistown. Raleigh recalled walking two miles to school.

She and her husband had fi ve chil-dren, Pete, Norma, twins, Floyd and Lloyd, and Larry. Th e twins were born on seperate days, in diff erent states. She had one boy in Missouri, and then was taken to Keokuk and had another son the next day. Th e twins were born in 1935. Norma Jean and Larry are the surviving children. Mrs. Raleigh has 21 grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren. She enjoyed talking with all her visi-tors at the celebration.

In the past, the Tri-State Work-force Housing Summit was held in one place. Th is year, it’s going to visit each of the three states that make up the eff ort. Th e event will be held in Keokuk, Iowa, on June 19, Quincy, Ill., on June 20 and Canton, Mo., on June 21. Sponsors are the not-for-profi t North East Community Ac-tion Corporation (NECAC), Two Rivers Regional Council of Governments, the Southeast Iowa Regional Planning Com-mission, Iowa State University Extension, the Tri-State Devel-opment Summit and Neighbor-Works America. Th e keynote speaker at all three events will be Judith Cana-les, USDA Rural Development

Deputy Under Secretary. Other speakers will cover topics such as federal and state housing ini-tiatives, innovative fi nancing opportunities and faith-based partnerships. “We decided it would be a good change of pace to take the sum-mit directly to all of those in-volved in housing issues,” said Carla Potts, NECAC Deputy Director for Housing Develop-ments and the chief organizer of the summit. “We’ve always had good turnouts for past sum-mits, but we hope this strategy will bring even more people to the table to discuss the hous-ing needs in each of the three states.” Th e Keokuk summit will be from noon to 4 p.m. June 19

at City Hall, 415 Blondeau. In Quincy, the summit will meet from noon to 4 p.m. June 20 at the Oakley-Lindsay Civic Cen-ter at 300 Civic Center Plaza. Th e Missouri summit will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. June 21 at the Centerstone Inn (formerly Comfort Inn) at 1701 Oak in Canton. Doors open for registration an hour ahead of each summit, and a complimentary lunch will be served each day. “Th e goal is to educate elected government and economic de-velopment offi cials about the resources available to them for workforce housing in their communities,” Potts said. “We want them to take home the idea that there are innovative

things being done that we can all learn from and that can put more of our neighbors into quality housing.” Th e event is an outgrowth of the Tri-State Development Summit, a group that has held nine regional conferences since 1996 in an eff ort to discuss common issues and solutions in 35 Missouri, Illinois and Iowa counties. Housing is one of 10 steering committees that meet and report to the summit. People who are interested in attending may call Potts or La-Don Bryant at (573) 324-6622 or Megan Backs at (217) 223-4313.

A reunion of several Vietnam veterans was held near Lewistown at the home of Lewis Stoneking during the last week of April. Th e men were members of the 173rd Airborne Brigade. Some of the men had not seen each other for over 40 years and were put in touch with each other when a sister of one of the men who was killed in Vietnam began looking on the internet for men who had served with her brother. Aft er someone contacted her to tell her they had known her brother, several men in the 173rd Airborne were reacquainted and a reunion was planned.

Th e 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team (Sky Sol-diers) is an airborne infantry brigade combat team. Ac-tivated in 1915 as the 173rd Infantry Brigade, the unit was in service during during the World Wars, but is best known for its actions during the Vietnam War. Th e bri-gade was the fi rst major United States Army ground for-

mation deployed in Vietnam, serving there from 1965 to 1971 and losing almost 1,800 soldiers. Th e 173rd is best known for the Battle of Dak To, where it suff ered heavy casualties in close combat with North Vietnamese forc-es. Brigade members received over 7,700 decorations, including over 6,000 Purple Hearts.

Lewis Stoneking of Lewis County was a member of the group and recently enjoyed getting together with some of the men with whom he was with in Vietnam. Th e men, with some of their wives, and two sisters of one of the men who were killed in Vietnam attended the reunion at Lewistown. Th ey had dinner one evening at Stanley’s 66 Diner. Aft er their meal, the men talked about their experiences.

James Anagnostopoulos or “Th e Greek” as his buddies called him, received the Distinguished Service Cross. He was a private fi rst class, 1st Battalion (Airborne, 503rd

Vietnam Vets hold reunionInfantry, 173rd Airborne Brigade. According to infor-mation from the website about Mr. Anagnostopoulos, the following is what occurred and how his actions mer-ited the Distinguished Service Cross.

For extraordinary heroism in connection with mili-tary operations involving confl ict with an armed hos-tile force in the Republic of Vietnam: Private First Class Anostopoulos distinguished himself by exceptionally valorous actions on 27 February 1968 while serving as a company medic during a search and destroy opera-tion southwest of Kontum City. Contact was made with a North Vietnamese Army company, and several mem-bers of his unit’s lead element were wounded in the fi rst moments of the ensuing fi re fi ght. Despite heavy con-centrations of automatic weapons fi re, Private Anagnos-topoulos raced across one hundred and fi ft y meters of pen terrain to treat his wounded comrades. Aft er pull-ing a seriously injured platoon leader to cover and giving him fi rst aid, he moved forward to three casualties who were within ten meters of an enemy machine gun. As he worked on the wounded the North Vietnamese machine gunner raised up and began fi ring on his position. Pri-vate Anagnostopoulos killed the enemy soldier with his pistol. He then completed giving aid to the three men and also treated two new casualties amid hostile sniper fi re and hand grenades directed against him. He next organized the evacuation of his patients to a helicopter landing zone, personally carrying three of the wounded through the continuing enemy fi re. When heavy fi ghting erupted a second time, Private Anagnostopoulos rushed across one hundred meters of exposed land and aided in the rescue of fi ve more wounded comrades.Private First Class Anagnostopoulos extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty were in keeping with the highest tradi-tions of the military service and refl ect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army.

Aft er the veterans enjoyed the meal prepared by Stan-ley’s 66 Diner, many customers applauded their service and came up to shake their hands and tell them how much they were appreciated.

More of the story about the reunion and how the members reunited with each other will be featured in next week’s Press-News Journal.

Several members of the 173rd Airborne recently reunited in Lewistown. Pictured are the veterans, two of their wives and two sisters whose brother was killed in Vietnam.

A reception was held at the Lewis County Health Department on April 26 for Beth Kenney, who is retiring from the Lewis County Health Department Board after serving for 29 years. Beth is the longest serving board member in the history of the Health Department which was established in 1953. Pictured is Beth Kenney with members of her family. (submitted photo)

Letter to EditorHighway 61 meeting in LaGrange

At our April 23 Lions Club meeting in LaGrange, a representative of MoDOT talked to us wanting our input on MoDOT projects and ideas-our input. Th e lady from MoDOT told us about the new bridge project north of LaGrange soon to start. I congratulated MoDOT for the fast and good job of putting in the Sugar Creek Bridge, between Canton and Monticello.

Th en I said there is an insult to injury to all who travel south of LaGrange and see the new cable on west side of highway to keep west side of red barn residents from crossing the ditch to get on Highway 61 to go south, making it near two miles travel to go south.

Th is total waste of money (my opinion) is throwing away, I heard $60,000, and throwing salt into an open wound that has been going on for 50 years, more or less. To go south from west side of Highway toward Quincy or Hannibal you have to travel an extra two miles, if you work in Quincy, you will work 300 days a year 600 miles, using $3.50 a gallon gas, and time also wasted. Last sum-mer some say there were three or four inmates and more people using weed eaters to mow under the cable, a waste in my opinion.

I think it is time to bury the hatchet, remove the cable, save money, make everyone who is aff ected by the cable happy. Put in the cross over, some years ago MoDOT did put a crossover in for the east side of the highway at red barn.

City of LaGrange settles dog lawsuit

Th e LaGrange Mayor and City Council members re-leased this information concerning a recent lawsuit. On May 3, 2013, the Plaintiff , Marcus Mayes, dismissed all claims against Chief McNelly and the City of LaGrange concerning the vicious dog-at-large incident that oc-curred in the City of LaGrange on March 30, 2010, which resulted in the dog being destroyed.

Th e claim against Offi cer Howell was dismissed pur-suant to a settlement reached by the city’s insurance car-rier in which the Plaintiff and his attorney were paid the sum of $50,000.00. Th e settlement funds were paid from the city’s insurance carrier, and not from city funds.

As part of the settlement, Offi cer Howell vehemently denied any liability on the claims made by the Plaintiff and made no admission of any wrong doing. Each party further “acknowledged” that the settlement was “being entered into solely as a compromise to prevent further expense and to terminate and extinguish all litigation”.

Th e city appreciates the calls and letters it has received from concerned citizens. Th e City of LaGrange and its’ Police Department are proud of its history of ser-vices to the residents of LaGrange, and remains commit-ted to responding to the needs of the community when the health or safety of residents are endangered, as they were in this unfortunate situation.

Th e information was released through the LaGrange City Attorney, Jeff Curl.

Lacy Seeger recently became the American Family Insurance Agent aft er Mark Reinebach re-tired aft er serving the area for 26 years.

Lacy is married to Brooks Seeger. She was born in Iowa and moved to the area from Omaha, Neb. Her husband’s par-ents are Scott and Lore Seeger from Ewing. Her parents live in Nelson, Mo. She has been in the in-surance industry for sev-eral years and when she moved to the area, one of the fi rst contacts she made was with Mark Reine-bach. She began working for the agency and then Reinebach approached her

Colonel Ron Replogle, superintendent of the Mis-souri State Highway Pa-trol, would like to make the public aware of Na-tional Safe Boating Week, which takes place May 18-24, 2013. It’s important to remember the safety precautions to take during recreational water activi-ties.

Nationwide, approxi-mately 500 people drown each year from recreation-al boating accidents. Of those, nearly 88 percent were not wearing a life jacket.

It is imperative that ev-eryone wear a life jacket at all times in and around the water. Missouri law re-quires children under sev-en to wear a life jacket at all times while on board a boat unless in an enclosed cabin area.

about his upcoming retire-ment and the opportunity to take over the agency. Reinebach has been very helpful with the transition. Th ey worked together for over 18 months prepar-ing for the change. She is licensed in Missouri, Ne-braska, Iowa and Illinois.

Seeger is very com-mitted to carrying on the tradition that American Family has had in Lewis County and the surround-ing area. American Fam-ily has been in business for over 85 years and lo-cal agents have included Virgil Springett, Russ Ward, Jerry Bean and Mark Reinebach. She says American Family and the Lewis County agency have a strong background of service to their customers and her goal is to continue that tradition.

She currently has fi ve employees with her staff specializing in auto and home insurance and Lacy specializing in farm, com-mercial and life insurance. Th ey also off er health in-surance. Brooks Seeger has recently become the offi ce manager. She says it is her

Boating Safety Division, National Association of State Boating Law Admin-istrators, and Canadian Safe Boating Council in encouraging safe and re-sponsible boating, includ-ing wearing a life jacket, and being alert and aware in and on the water.

“Boating accidents oc-cur too quickly for you to reach for a life jacket,” said Colonel Replogle. “Mis-souri experienced 82 boat-ing accidents in 2012, in which 93 people were in-jured and 10 people were killed. Please pay attention when enjoying Missouri’s waters, and make sure you have a life jacket for each person in your boat. Take time to choose a life jacket that fi ts properly and is ap-proved for your activity and body weight.”

Life jackets are now lighter, less obtrusive, and more attractive than ever before. Th e new infl at-

and her staff ’s job to be ed-ucated about the diff erent types of insurance to as-sure their customers they have the correct amount of coverage for their needs. Th ey are constantly educating themselves on the changes in insurance. Seeger says people need to be protected in case of an emergency, and her agency can provide the knowledge and experience needed.

During the recent fl ooding in the area, Lacey and her staff helped sand-bag a couple of homes in LaGrange, She is very proud of the fact that the staff was able to help someone in need, and at the same time keep the offi ce open and members of her agency were help-ing with claims. Th e staff has had to fi eld many calls about fl ood damage and also those of people want-ing to get fl ood insurance. It was a test for the agency and Seeger feels that every-thing went well and they were able to help people in their time of need. Seeger says never get caught with-out insurance, you never

able life jackets allow the mobility and fl exibility for activities like boating, fi shing or paddling, and are much cooler in the warmer weather. Th ere are many diff erent varieties of infl atable jackets ranging from those that infl ate in-stantly when submerged in the water to those that are manually infl ated. All are designed to be more comfortable and wearable than the traditional life jacket.

In addition to your life jacket, remember these boating safety tips: 1) Don’t drink alcohol while you’re boating. 2) Know Missouri’s boating laws before you get onto the wa-ter. 3) Make sure your boat is as prepared as you are. Schedule an inspection before you hit the water. 4) Check the weather. Know the forecast prior to going out, and check for chang-ing conditions regularly.

know what may happen. Flood insurance must be in eff ect for a certain time period before a claim can be made.

She and her husband are involved in the com-munity. Th ey are huge St. Louis Cardinals fans and also history buff s, enjoys movies and dirt track rac-ing. Th ey are also busy raising a family.

As a cancer survivor, she has fi rst hand knowl-edge of the disease and she is this year’s community chairman for Relay for Life. Th e community kick-off for Relay for Life will be held Friday, May 10 at the Lewistown City Park at 5 p.m. Activities include free derma-skin screenings, banana split bar, bounce house, door prizes, meal and other events.

Lacy Seeger looks for-ward to being a part of the community and help-ing people with their in-surance needs. An open house is being planned. Th e American Family of-fi ce is located at 1810 Elm Street. Th e phone number is (573) 288-2004.

5) Make sure you can keep in touch. In an emergency situation, cell phones and having a good fl oat plan, which includes someone on shore knowing when you are leaving and when you should return, is im-portant.

“Th e Missouri State Highway Patrol would like the 2013 boating season to be fun for everyone,” said Col. Replogle.

Boaters are reminded to contact the Missouri State Highway Patrol using *55 if they need assistance, or observe another boater operating a vessel in an unsafe manner.

Th e Patrol encourages motorists and watercraft operators to protect them-selves by making sure ev-eryone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint and everyone in the vessel is wearing an approved life jacket.

‘Stamp Out Hunger’ is Aim of Letter Carriers’ Food Drive May 11

New State Transportation Program Focuses on Roadway Maintenance

Hunger is aff ecting more families than ever before. Th at’s why local letter carriers are once again partnering with Th e Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri to collect food on Saturday, May 11. Th e Canton Post Offi ce will be particiapating.

Stamp Out Hunger, the National As-sociation of Letter Carriers’ annual food drive, brings in more food each year than any single event for Th e Food Bank. Lo-cal letter carriers ask the community to leave food donations by their mailboxes May 11. Donations are picked up as letter carriers cover their regular mail routes.

To help: In most parts of the TFB ser-vice area, blue Stamp Out Hunger shop-ping bags will be delivered to mailboxes before May 12 Fill the shopping bag (or any other bag) with non-perishable food items.

Cash donations are also accepted. An envelope is inside each Stamp Out Hun-ger shopping bag. With $1, Th e Food Bank can buy and distribute 15 pounds of food, or about 11 meals, to local pan-tries.Leave the bag by your mailbox on Saturday, May 11 by 9 a.m. Letter carri-ers and volunteers will pick up donations that day.

All food stays in the community where it is collected and is distributed by Th e Food Bank to local hunger-relief pro-grams

Food Bank Executive Director Peggy Kirkpatrick said, “Our partnership with the Letter Carriers and this food drive is extremely important to those of us on the front lines of hunger relief. In 2013, Th e Food Bank network of agencies is help-ing to feed approximately 110,000 people

per month. Th at represents a 20 percent increase in people served over the same period of time as last year.”

Last year’s food drive raised over 151,000 pounds of food in our service area and nearly $33,000. Nationwide, do-nors gave over 70 million pounds of food during the 2012 Stamp Out Hunger drive.

About Th e Food BankTh e Food Bank for Central & North-

east Missouri distributes free food to 130 elementary schools through the Buddy Pack Program, a weekend food service for children; and 131 hunger-relief agen-cies, such as food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters in 32 counties. To see a com-plete list of agencies that receive free food from Th e Food Bank, visit http://share-foodbringhope.org/agency-listing/.

Every year, the Missouri Department of Transportation releases its Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, which lists all transportation projects planned by state and regional planning agencies for a fi ve-year period.

Th is year, the draft 2014-2018 State-wide Transportation Improvement Pro-gram, also known as the “STIP,” is avail-able for public review and comment through May 31, 2013.

“Projects listed in the STIP represent our commitments to the state of Mis-souri,” said MoDOT Director Dave Nich-ols. “Our planning partners have helped us determine what projects are priorities based on the funding available, and the STIP puts them on a schedule for com-pletion.”

Several years ago, the STIP contained over a billion dollars’ worth of road and bridge construction projects each year, generating jobs, boosting the economy and expanding the safe and effi cient

movement of people and goods across the state and the country.

A dramatic reduction in transporta-tion funding, however, makes today’s STIP look very diff erent.

“For the most part, this draft STIP fea-tures projects that focus on maintaining the transportation system we have,” said Nichols. “Asphalt overlays, preventative maintenance and rehabilitation projects make up the majority of our $700 million program.”

Th e draft 2014-2018 Statewide Trans-portation Improvement Program lists transportation projects planned by state and regional planning agencies for fi scal years 2014 through 2018 (July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2018). Th e proposed program is available for public review be-ginning May 1. Th ose interested in see-ing the program or off ering comments can contact MoDOT’s customer service centers at 1-888-ASK-MoDOT (888-275-6636). Th e program is also available

on MoDOT’s web site, www.modot.org, and at MoDOT district and regional of-fi ces around the state. Th e formal com-ment period ends May 31, 2013.

Following the public review period, the comments will be presented to the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission. Th e commission will re-view the comments and the fi nal trans-portation program before considering it for approval at its July 10 meeting in Rolla.

MoDOT is also engaged in a long-term planning eff ort called “On the Move.” Th e department is working through the sum-mer to gather direction and insight from Missourians on major transportation is-sues and priorities. Where the draft STIP represents specifi c obligations for trans-portation over a fi ve-year period, On the Move will identify and prioritize trans-portation needs and solutions for the next 20 years. Learn more about On the Move at www.missourionthemove.org.

Missouri Governor Jay Nixon

visited Canton R-V School on

Jan. 31. He spoke to students

about his plans to increase

school funding and to recog-

nize the school for its continued

academic excellence. Canton

R-V Schools have been accred-

ited “with distinction” for seven

consecutive years by the State

of Missouri. After his speech,

the Governor asked Canton bas-

ketball player Austin Hoewing

to shoot a few baskets with him.

In his State of the State speech

given on Jan. 28, the Governor

had called for $100 million in

additional funding for K-12

ooms, and a four percent

$34 million for col-

The Gov-des

Governor Nixon Visits Canton School

Schools program statewide. An

additional $17 million is pro-

posed for early childhood edu-

cation. Nixon visited the Early

Childhood classroom before he

spoke to students and teachers

in the Canton gym.

During his visit, Nixon said

that “As a result of our relent-

less focus on fi scal discipline

and job creation, businesses re

hiring, our economy is grow-

ing, and unemployment has

dropped to a four year low.

As we continue to balance the

budget and make government

more effi cient, we now have

an opportunity to make smart,

strategic investments in educa-

tion that will expand opportu-

nities for students and strength-

en our economy for years to

come.”

“Early childhood education is

proven to boost achievement

in school and improve oppor-

tunities later in life, a smart

stment with a big return,”

Gov. Nixon said. “These addi-

tional funds will help that every

young child in our state comes

to school ready to learn and

ready to succeed.”

In a press release from the

Governor’s offi ce, the more

than $100 million in additional

funding for K-12 classrooms

will help to train more teach-

ers, modernize classrooms and

extend Missouri’s school year.

Under Gov. Nixon’s proposal,

Missouri’s school year will be

extended to the national aver-

age of at least 180 days.

After his speech, Nixon invited

Canton basketball team mem-

ber Austin Hoewing to come

down on court and shoot a few

baskets with him. The Gov-

ernor attempted several free

throw shots that were close, but

not through the hoop. Hoewing

showed the Governor why his

team is undefeated by sinking

his fi rst sh

ot to the applause of

the student body. The Governor

seemed to enjoy challenging

Hoewing and applauded and

smiled when Austin made his

fi rst shot. Nixon spoke with

Hoewing for several minutes

and autographed the basketball

and presented it to Austin. For

the record, the Governor did

make a couple of baskets.

In an interview with the Gov-

ernor after his speech, he was

asked how parents and students

can feel safe at school, with

so many shootings happening

across the country. Nixon said

that by continuing to fund edu-

cation, provide more funding

and education for mental health

disabilities and awareness, con-

tinue to provide more training

to law enforcement, teachers

students and work as a com

munity and state to protect o

children together, He said

is not in favor of teachers

ing armed. He said safe sch

should be a haven for stud

Heartland Christian College held its fi rst an-nual “Friends of the Col-lege Banquet” on Tuesday, April 23, with special guest and speaker Former At-torney General John Ash-croft .

Th e event started off with a pre-dinner Meet and Greet with Mr. Ashcroft , and included members of the HCC Board of Trust-ees and other local guests. Almost 200 people were served at the steak dinner which followed. Music and media were provided by Heartland Christian Col-lege students and alumni; President Kris Palmer and Chancellor Charles Sharpe greeted guests, followed by the main address from Mr. Ashcroft . Th e College expresses its thanks to Mr. Ashcroft for his uplift ing and challenging address about the need to raise up a moral standard in these days. His words of encour-agement to the College were timely and appreci-ated.

Heartland Christian College is also grateful for the support of guests from the surrounding com-munities who attended or helped in other ways. Pro-viding aff ordable, qual-ity, biblical education re-quires a wide community

of friends. Th e College has a strong desire to both serve and partner with the larger Northeast Missouri community, to equip and prepare a generation to fulfi ll the call of God on their lives and in so doing, to make a real diff erence in our communities, in our nation and even around the world.

As a two-year institu-tion, Heartland Christian

College functions similar to a Junior or Commu-nity College, in that they are an onramp to higher education for a wide range of students. Many of these are traditional college bound students, but it also includes students who, for whatever reason, may lack confi dence in their ability to succeed. Many Chris-tian colleges (and higher education in general) have

priced themselves out of reach of a lot of very quali-fi ed students. Without re-lying on any government assistance, due to the gra-cious gift s of their part-ners, Heartland Christian College is able to graduate all of their students with-out a college debt.
