I would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge the Tri-State communities on behalf of Transcendent Healthcare, LLC.

This is what makes us successful; local people, local ownership and local investment, NOT the cookie cutter chain operation.

I f you would have ask me 10 years ago if Mother Nature could change me from the inside out I would have said, “No way!” But as I look back to Nov. 7, 2005, I quickly realize how one night of terror changed me for the rest of my life.It seemed surreal to me as I looked at the remains of my church, Baker Chapel United Methodist.

Things like this only happen on television! But it had only taken minutes for an F4 tornado to steal 23 lives from our community and destroy the church.

Our church family had been discussing building a new church, but no real plans were made. We were a church family of just over 100 members, now left without a building and forced to rebuild.

The summer of 2006, a phone call from Jeff Parness, the chairman of New York Says Thank You Organization (NYSTY), was about to have a major impact on the rebuilding efforts. Jeff explained a group of New York firemen and businessmen from across the U.S. would be coming to help rebuild our little church in a corn field on the anniversary of 9/11! I had no clue how this would change me for the rest of my life. There were almost 1,500 people from all over the U.S. that showed up for a weekend to help build our little country church. I was very proud to be a part of that project and see the completion.

We learned that each year, NYSTY goes into a devastated community to pay it forward the help the nation had given them on 9/11 and that people from formerly devastated communities travel with them the following year to the next build. We first paid it forward in 2009 as we traveled to Little Souix, Iowa, to help rebuild a Boy Scout camp devastated by a tornado. As we gathered to begin rebuilding, the parents of each Boy Scout killed during the tornado were given the opportunity to speak to us. As they shared their thoughts, I visualized the older Boy Scouts doing what they had learned to save the younger boys, even though it cost them their lives. Families spoke of relying on faith and building hope for the younger Scouts to return to this camp that had taken their sons’ lives.

I experienced volunteers of different faiths coming together in a short period of time to help others. The benches I helped make from green cottonwood trees give hope to people who have experienced terrorist attacks or the devastation of Mother Nature and give back to others what NYSTY gave us as they helped rebuild our church.

Our group rebuilt a 4-H Community Center in Arkansas in 2010 that was destroyed by a tornado. When we first arrived, the community was overwhelmed, but when we left three days later, there was hope in the community. They realized people did care and the care came from across the U.S.

In 2011, we helped build an outdoor amphitheater in Ellijay, Ga. September of 2012 took us to Bot-tineau, N.D., to build a fishing dock and Annie’s House, a ski lodge for disabled veterans and youth.

Hurricane Sandy victims were the recipients in 2013, as we cut drywall for basement walls that were destroyed by flooding. Bethel Acres, Okla., was the building site in 2014, where we helped build an animal rescue.

After you complete your first community service project, you feel pride and a sense of accomplish-ment. The builds during the past six years are not about us learning to use drills, hammers or a knife to cut drywall or how to insulate walls. But volunteering for these builds changed me, empowering me to step forward to help others. A tornado in a rural Indiana town led to my volunteering across America.

“Hey, the marina’s on fire,” said a friend calling at a little before five in the morning on Valentine’s Day. I called my wife from work. She pulled up the online news and she was off like a rescue squad to find our little

fiberglass sailboat, “Pennywise,” melted, smoldering and burned to the waterline, ready to sink, in an Evansville marina basin.

We loved that little boat. We bought her in Melbourne, Fla, and brought her home by water via the Intracoastal and Tenn-Tom Waterways, Lake Okeechobee, Gulf of Mexico and the Caloosahatchee, Mobile, Tombigbee, Tennessee and Ohio rivers. This was shortly after Hurricane Ike blew up the Ohio Valley in 2008 with 50 and 60 knot winds that broke our docks away from the riverbank and sank our first sailboat.

That storm broke my dad’s neck, killed eight people in Indiana alone and destroyed crops throughout the Ohio Valley. It also caused record flooding in northern Indiana and central Illinois. I would find those same flooding conditions in the wettest June on record bringing home boat number three this summer.

Boat three, “Euphoria,” is a curvy, shapely beauty we found online sitting in St. Clair Shores, Mich. She is old and dinged up, a little worse for wear like most of us, and gorgeous.

My wife and I made the eight hour drive up, took a cold May sail on Lake St. Clair’s clear, green waters and gave the owner a deposit. In early June, my cousin and I started her on the journey home. I took off work for two weeks and the clock was ticking.

We woke an hour before dawn on a Sunday, made coffee on a little alcohol stove in the boat’s galley and cast off the lines. As we exited a boat canal into the lake, the sun rose through trees with fresh spring leaves that were weeks behind ours along the Ohio River.

We saw our first iron ore freighter as we turned north out of the lake and into the St. Clair River. It was a giant, wave making, rusty ship that towered over us in the narrow river and made me feel like we traveled in a plastic tea cup. Cana-dian flags waved on the river’s east side and American flags on the west.

A strong wind picked up from the south as a low pressure system moved in behind us. We set the genoa, the big sail on the front of the boat, shut off the engine and rolled up the river. We heard two distress calls with reported people in the water on the marine band radio from Lake Erie to the south of us. We continued on against the clock, hoping for the best.

All of lakes Superior, Michigan and Huron drain into the St. Clair River and the water turns rough with waves and a strong current as it is funneled into the narrow and shallow straight right where the international bridge crosses the river’s mouth. The wind held from the south running counter to the swift current and picking up a nasty chop. We crawled through the white capped torrent and broke into the vastness of Lake Huron, who greeted us with a gentle swell and a setting sun.

That night, Lake Huron took on a more typical Great Lakes’ attitude. She turned cold, foggy and rough. The Great Lakes in June are like boating through an icebox that sits atop an unbalanced washing machine.

To make any noticeable distance in a small sailboat, the crew must keep the boat moving around the clock. With only two of us onboard, we stood a four-on-four-off watch schedule. That is, four hours on-watch at the wheel, tending sails and navigating followed by four hours off-watch straightening up the mess in the cabin, percolating coffee and preparing meals for the on-watch crew member, assisting in navigation, performing personal hygiene, keeping an ear tuned for trouble on deck and, when there is a chance, sleeping.

Sleeping onboard is tough. Every change in the boat’s motion, flap of the sail, slap of a loose rope, or knock on

the deck wakes the off-watch. The waves sometimes rock you gently to sleep then turn around and slam you wide awake and bruised against the hull.

Cooking too is a trying experience. The boat moves up and down and pitches and rolls and it takes the skills of an acrobat and juggler to stay standing and keep food on the stove and counter top. The little stove is gim-baled to keep its contents relatively level, so it swings back and forth in wild arcs, slopping hot grease and boiling water onto the unwary cook. Standing in the galley in big waves requires one hand and two sprawled out legs to hold on with one hand left to do all the chopping, stirring, flipping and mixing. Some-times it’s hard to tell a sandwich from a salad.

It took two nights and a day of sailing and motoring through Lake Huron’s fog and waves to reach Mackinac Island at the north end of the lake on Tuesday morning. I called out our approach on the radio to warn others who couldn’t see us in the fog, “Securite. Securite. Securite. This is the sailing vessel, Euphoria — west bound — making six knots — four miles east of the Mackinac Light.”

The fog was so thick you couldn’t see past the bow. We blew the horn every two minutes and listened close for boats and waves on an island beach we might have missed. The morning sun was bright overhead and, as it shined through the fog, it felt like we traveled through a cotton boll.

A mile from the harbor, the fog broke, revealing deep blue water and a beautiful green and rocky hump of an island protruding from the inland sea. We tied up at the state dock and made our touristy rounds.

With no cars allowed on the island, every-one was compelled to walk, ride a bike or take a horse-drawn wagon. Many of the over-weight guests didn’t look too happy walking and biking. There were arguments and tense words. One unhappy local said the island smelled like horse manure and fudge.

I found it wonderful. There were horses. There was manure and there were fudge shops. And there were beautiful cottages, stunning views and a couple of really cool bars. We went to the top of the Grand Hotel and drank expensive drinks with a Vancouver movie producer and three immigrant bartend-ers from Jamaica, Mexico and Serbia who couldn’t wait to tell us their stories. Like Stein-beck wrote in, “East of Eden,” I gobbled them up like grapes.

Wednesday morning found us sailing hard into a cold and powerful west wind through

the Straights of Mackinac and under the massive Mackinac Bridge. The wind had blown out all the fog and the sky was perfectly clear. We watched giant white swans glide just above the waves. An hour before the sun set on the lake the wind shifted to the north, and we made the turn down Lake Michigan toward Chicago on a broad reach.

The wind remained strong and consistent from the north, building up a sizable but manageable wave train. We dodged a couple of thunderstorms that dropped rain on central Illinois and Wisconsin by the half foot. We fought more fog.

Friday morning at 0605, I was below trying to sleep in my bunk under the cockpit wearing the only warm, partially dry clothes I had left as the boat rolled over on its beam ends, from side to side where the hull and deck meet each other, and anything not strapped down inside the cabin flew around like missiles.

My cousin, Todd, who had the watch, hollered out for help. It had been a long, cold and rainy night. He was two hours into his watch with cold 45 degree lake water spraying back at him from the bow and rolling across the decks leaving him standing ankle deep in a cockpit filled with water.

I came on deck forgetting my rain gear and found a confused sea with waves still rolling from the north but cut and chaotic from a new set blown up by a 30 knot east wind. We had extra fuel cans and a dinghy leashed to the boat deck and they were doing their best to break free and jump in the lake.

I went forward to reef or reduce the size of the main sail. I was instantly soaked to the bone and shivering cold. We got the boat stabilized under reduced sail and sailed down the lake with all the comfort of a bull rider on his mount.

And the fog never let up. An ore freighter ship passed us so close we could feel its engine rumble through the boat hull and hear its bellowing fog horn but we never glimpsed the slightest sight of it.

We made Chicago Harbor late on Friday evening in a pea soup fog and anchored 200 yards off of Lake Shore Drive. We couldn’t see a single building.

We spent the weekend preparing for the mast to be removed by a crane and lowered onto the deck. We also went out on the town. We hit a blues festival and ate cheeseburgers and drank a few beers at The Billy Goat Tavern. We ate the best fish I’ve ever had at a tiny place across from the boat yard called Calumet Fisheries.

By Monday afternoon we locked through the dam that separates Lake Michigan from the Chicago River and we motored down the winding river with the tourist ferries in sunshine and warmth as the skyscrapers passed by like the cliff walls of a great canyon. We passed beautiful old architectural marvels and the hideous chrome plated Trump Tower.

Less than two miles later, we were west bound in the Chicago Ship and Sanitary Canal. Stinking industrial behemoths lined the canal and the air was hard to breathe. The water was littered with tens of thousands of plastic soda and water bottle lids. Hundreds and hundreds of barges lined the canal walls and there were more birds, ducks and geese than I’ve ever seen on any body of water.


All of the tow boats were moored to the walls. With the massive rains flooding the state, commercial traffic was prohib-ited from moving. That was a good thing because my little eight mile per hour boat was pushed along by the flood waters at a steady and unstoppable 11 miles per hour.

By dark of that first night, we had made the Illinois River and traveled through acres of floating debris. Giant trees and lumber headed down river with us as well as refrigerators and anything else that could float. Our plan to travel through the night was stopped when we passed a black plastic tarp half the width of the river. If we hit something like that it would have left us without a steering rudder or a propeller so we tied up along a rock wall in Joliet, Ill.

We were the only boat moving on the river the next day as we raced down the Illinois. We locked through three dams and watched the Asian carp jump through the air and against the boat.

Starved Rock Dam was so flooded they pulled the electric motors on their pumps and valves. We were stuck until the river went down.

Two days and two nights were lost to Starved Rock. We used our time to walk through the flood waters filled with leeches past hundreds of white pelicans fishing on the flooded river to the town of North Utica to find sandbags, closed signs and cold drinks at an Irish Pub on the hill.

We kept in touch with the dam on the marine band radio and by Thursday afternoon, they had reopened. With the clock ticking, we motored past the dam and the pelicans and into the night past Peoria and washed away navigation buoys.

Heading down river like we were, we should have expected to see red buoys to our left and green buoys to our right. In the pitch dark, the river was indistinguishable from the bank and we used a spot light to highlight the buoys’ colored reflective tape.

On my midnight to 4 a.m. watch, I shined the light across the river and found a red buoy. I turned toward it and kept the light on it. Then I noticed that I was about to run the boat into the trees along the dark bank and turned hard to bring the boat safely out into the river. The red buoy had been washed away and it had fetched up on the opposite bank. Anx-ious sweat drained down my chest and back.

I welcomed the morning sun and we made it some 200 miles down the river in less than 20 hours to the confluence

located on Hwy 261, just south of Castle High School

of the Illinois and Mississippi rivers by Friday afternoon. We slid into a marina in Grafton, Ill., and tried to fuel. The owner came down on the docks and said he had just capped the fuel tanks shut. The water was rising and they had to evacuate.

The radio also called out that the Coast Guard had shut down traffic for recreational boaters on the Mississippi because of the danger. We had traveled 840 miles through fog and waves and past river flood detri-tus without sleep and dry clothes and now we were out of vacation and stopped dead in our tracks.

Six weeks later, I traded out my cousin for my wife and we made the final 48 hour leg down a still flooded but navigable Mississippi and up the gentle Ohio and Tennessee to Kentucky Lake. We passed the Arch at Saint Louis and barges three times the size of ours on the Ohio.

I was asleep in the forward berth with a port open above my head when an upriver-bound tow boat pushing 42 barges passed us in the ragging current. Our little boat climbed a wave created by the towboat’s massive propellers and dipped its bow down the other side. Water washed across the deck and poured through the hatch on to my face and waking me as I heard my wife scream for help. The waves created by this monster were so great that the 55-foot aluminum mast lashed to the deck was in danger of tearing away and falling overboard.

We had her mast stepped in Eddyville, Ky., and we will finally be able to move her home to our dock between Owensboro and Newburgh on Labor Day weekend. It has taken us an entire summer to replace the boat we lost on Valentine’s Day, but some loves are a longer and rockier river.

Building a bettercommunity

It started by accident.After the Chandler Jaycees went defunct, the profit from the sale of the club’s land

went to the Chandler Parks Department. Wendy Wary, a town employee and former parks board member, approached the board in hopes of seeing bigger projects come to fruition.

“There’s obviously a lot of things that could be upgraded and improved there, but they do have a limited budget,” she said. “So, I wanted them to instead of spending a little bit of money here and there for new benches and things like that... Maybe they pick a big-ger project that incorporates more things. They could use that $20,000 to maybe lever-age additional money from other sources to do something big.”

Wary said the parks board was interested in her ideas, but didn’t exactly know where to start.

She offered to take it on and see what she could do to help. It didn’t take her long to realize that a non-profit group was needed in order to get funding from other sources. 4 A Better Chandler was born.

Wary said that she began talking to people in the community about her idea and it all snowballed from there. She soon had a five-member board and was filing incorporation papers.

Wary said she’s spoken to the Kiwanis and Lions clubs in town and sees this as a way to unify everyone for a common goal. She’s also spoken to the groups that run the sports park and basketball leagues, the CPT at the school and various church groups.

“We’re really wanting to just get as many people involved as we can,” she said.The first big project for the group was a clean up day held at the town park. Wary said

35 people showed up on Memorial Day weekend to help plant flowers around the sign, paint picnic tables and various other projects at the park.

Since then, the group has spearheaded a youth fishing tournament, a back-to-school

splash bash, a community movie night and a talent show during the town’s annual Celebration Day.

Wary said the goal for this year is to get the group’s name out and host a few low-to-no-cost events to get the community more involved.

“We felt like this year, the most we could really accomplish is to really just start getting the word out there about our group and what we’re trying to accomplish,” she said. “We have a lot of ideas of what this group could encompass... It’s all in development stages right now, so we don’t really know what will come of it for sure.”

When the board of directors came across a grant opportunity from Kaboom!, they decided to go ahead and give it a shot. They made and submitted a two-minute video describing why play is important in their community. While they didn’t get the grant, Wary said it was a great launching point for the group.

Wary said the group has met with a playground designer and has drawn up an inclusive playground, something that they feel is lacking in the area. Wary said that as a mother to a pediatric stroke survivor and an aunt to a child with Down Syndrome, she has a unique perspective. She knows that physical disabil-ities can make visits to the park frustrating. An inclu-sion playground will also make it easier for parents with disabilities to bring their children to the park.

“I thought it would be a great way for us to build a project that goes beyond just our small community, but as a larger community, to provide a play place that would be open to kids of all abilities,” she said. “Autism is on the rise... Some people have sensory issues. Two of my boys have sensory issues. They have issues with textures and sounds, that kind of thing. To really make it a more encompassing play-ground for all ages and all abilities is the key to us.”

The possibility of a large project is getting the com-munity more excited about the possibilities.

“A lot of people are getting excited about it,” she said. “Putting the video on Facebook has generated a lot of commentary in the town. It’s kind of show-ing people that we can do something better for our community.”

On Oct. 18, the group will host Music in the Park at the town park, located at the corner of Fourth Street and E. Monroe Avenue. The Honey Vines and Ryan J. Rigdon will be performing. Bring your own chair and blanket. In the event of rain, the concert will be moved to the Community Center.

“Beyond that, we are wanting to do some com-munity events this summer, to kind of just bring the community together,” she said. “I don’t feel like there’s enough going on in our community right now. I feel like that’s a great way to reach out to people.”

H e’s a small town man. But with ingenuity, dedication and compassion, his life has touched many. When big things happen in small towns, everybody knows about it. The Bill Mohler Education Scholarship

provides tuition and housing costs to Boonville High School students with at least a B average, along with oth-er requirements. Even more amazing is this scholarship could be around to help BHS students as long as there’s a BHS. But if you knew Bill Mohler, none of this would surprise you.

William Mohler was born in 1933 to Harland and Thelma Mohler, the owners and operators of a small motor repair shop, over which they lived. He began his working life as a paperboy for the Evansville Courier and Press at 12 years old, a job which required him to get up at 4 a.m. and complete his route before heading to school.

At 16, he started doing construction and electrical work under a contractor in Boonville. Armed with this experi-ence and books from Coin Electrical Institute in Chicago, Mohler used $300, a truck, and a BHS diploma to start wiring his neighbors’ houses. From these humble beginnings, Mohler Technology got its start.

“When you start a business in a small town…word gets around, and if you do it right, everybody finds out about it pretty quick,” Mohler said. “I got acquainted with O. H. Warwick, a contractor out of Chicago, when Essex Wire built their plant here in Boonville. I did the electrical there.”

And with that, Mohler went from wiring his neighbors’ houses to working on the most innovative projects all over the nation. In Texas, he wired some vertical lime kilns that were some of the first in the country, and in South Caro-lina some furnaces for a facility that recycled old copper wires after the change to fiber optics.

Today, Mohler Technology employs about 65 people in the Boonville community and supports numerous other businesses, repairing up to 2,250 horsepower motors and building the largest supply of water-cooled long-wall min-ing motors in the U.S.

“I had money in the bank, more than I could ever use,” Mohler said. “It got to the place where, ‘I’ve got all the money I’m ever going to need. What am I going to do?’ To me, helping kids get educated, is the best thing you can do in life. I wouldn’t want to teach them how to rob banks and that kind of [stuff].”

On Oct. 28, 2014, Boonville Mayor Pam Hendrickson declared his birthday “Bill Mohler Day.”

“The excitement when he made the move to provide the scholarship,” she said, “was overwhelming in the community. And knowing him most all my life, I thought it was the appropriate thing to do.”

But for someone whom most would think has a right to be proud, Bill Mohler keeps himself humble, and has raised his children with the same standard.

“What else would you be? Helping kids get educated has got to be the thing that I’m enjoying right now. I think it’s something that more people ought to do, I can tell you that. I ain’t the first [person] who ever made any money in Boonville,” Mohler said with a laugh. “You don’t take your [stuff] with you, and you don’t live forev-er. While you’re here you need to do something with it.”

bigwaveripple,


Much to his surprise, Paul Medcalf opened a letter in his mailbox on Valentine’s Day and saw that his

father’s dog tags, which had been bur-ied in France during World War II, had been recovered all these decades later.

Jeremy Masclef was working on the railroad in the French village of Vove and saw a shiny object buried deep in the ground.

“It was 20 inches under the soil,” Medcalf said.

Valerie, Masclef’s fiance, was a hospice nurse who knew Dominique Hoguet, who had a family member in hospice care. Fluent in English, Hoguet sent Medcalf a letter.

“I would say I felt joy and amazement that such a confirmation of being con-nected to him could still be made, even after 70 years of being lost and buried, with their return for my birthday,” said Medcalf, a Newburgh resident. “And now we reconnected, even though he is outside of this world.”

In the letter, Hoguet sent Medcalf his email address and they made an immediate connection. This story is so moving it was published in “Voice of the North,” a French newspaper, on May 10.

Olis Leroy Medcalf, a 100 percent disabled vet, came home from the war in 1945. He died of a heart attack at age 59 in 1976.

Paul was especially gratified that he had the package in time to wear his father’s dog tags to Camp Attebury, near New Albany, for an energy presen-tation he was making on his birthday, March 24. The camp had special significance because it is where his father shipped out of in World War II. After a Google search of Camp Attebury, Paul saw that his father, an Army Ranger, earned a Silver Star for capturing 15 German soldiers single-handedly in a French chateau.

Paul’s movement toward military activities started in 1968 when

A storiedcareerHis dad’s dog tags were found in France 70 years after they were lost. In

the meantime, Paul Medcalf made his own career in the Air Force.


“my life was getting both too boring and too scary at the same time.”After graduating from Boonville High School in the fall of ‘67, he got a part-time job at Mead Johnson on the west

side of Evansville. His father and mother, Geneva Alice (Shewmaker) moved to the west side near the end of Paul’s time in high school. He began his college days at the University of Evansville, but quickly transferred to the Univer-sity of Southern Indiana (then ISUE).

“I had a great job and wonderful girlfriend, but my free tuition college life was boring and the Vietnam War was raging,” Medcalf said. “I had also been talking to the Air Force and they wanted me. I had expressed an interest in the world of computer science, but their testing indicated that I had a good ‘ear’ for language.”

Medcalf, who had taken two years of Latin in high school since his mother was a Latin teacher, picked Russian and has been happy with that choice ever since. Because he had been accustomed to playing sports and working for Raymond and Elizabeth France on his 1,000-acre hog farm or at his feed mill in Boonville the three years before going to college, Medcalf was accustomed to hot, hard work in difficult conditions. Basic training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, wasn’t overly taxing, at least physically.

“My biggest challenge was getting used to what seemed like angry shouting from the drill sergeants every time they were around us,” Medcalf said. “If they found a weakness in someone, they would keep attacking that person until they came around or quit. Not everyone made it through training. Some took off in the middle of the night and some fought back. Neither course of action was respected or rewarded and the military jails were notoriously hard.”

After graduation, Medcalf stayed at Lackland a few more weeks and worked at making various signage as an illustrator, before attending Syracuse University to start basic Russian language training. Part of the deal of becom-ing a linguist for the U.S. was that he had to be thoroughly checked out in order to receive Top Secret, Code Word level, security clearance.

“Several of my contacts back in Indiana told me about the inquiries they had from the government checking to make sure that such a clearance was warranted,” Medcalf said. “We would be working with the National Security Agency (NSA) and it was a true honor to earn that clearance rating.”

With his short, military haircut, he stood out at Syracuse.“Luckily, our dorms were remote from the main campus by a mile or so and we lived separately from the long

hairs, up on a big hill called Sky Top,” Medcalf said.He and Nancy (Chinn) were married on June 9, 1969. It was easier to return to Texas because she was coming

with him when he was stationed at Goodfellow AF base in San Angelo. Medcalf departed for Japan in September 1970. Nancy and their infant son, John, would join him on Pearl Harbor Day that winter. While at Wakkanai Air Sta-tion in Japan, there was considerable Russian radio traffic much of the time.

“And when both military jets and fighters got into an exercise, we were totally immersed in trying to keep up with what was going on,” Medcalf said. “Often the pilot would ask permission to shoot at the target, but if they were given the go-ahead to fire, it was usually just taking camera shots which they could revisit later when back on the ground. Sometimes, they did, however, shoot and announce that the target was destroyed and falling.”

About 10 years after he finished his military service, a Korean passenger plane identified as KAL-007, was tracked by the Russian voice intercept operators in Wakkanai, as it accidentally strayed across Russian air space and was eventually shot down.

“That wreckage washed ashore on the small island of Mt. Rishiri, just off our coast,” Medcalf said. “The USA almost went back to war with Russia at that time as we had members of our Congress on board who were killed, along with all the civilians and crews. The Russians gave back only a plastic bag full of shoes, which they said was all that could be found. They lied.”

When Medcalf returned to the U.S., landing in California, everything changed.“I was traveling in uniform and the next flight from San Francisco to St. Louis was mostly civilian,” he said. “I saw

long-haired hippies again for the first time since going to Japan. At that time, there was not a lot of love for the Viet-nam War and there was nowhere near the appreciation for servicemen as there is today. The people on my flight were OK, though, but I was so glad to see my family waiting when I eventually landed in Evansville.”

He used some of his re-enlistment bonus to buy a brand new car to drive to Monterey, Calif. He later moved to Fort Meade, Md., and worked for the NSA annex near the Baltimore-Washington airport.

“There at NSA in D.C., is where I grew into handling some very high intelligence work with the Russian lan-guage,” Medcalf said. “The white noise we had recorded when I was in Wakkanai was decoded by our NSA com-puters into Russian language and we then broke it down into English for analysis.”

Although the NSA offered him a job as a level 9 employee, he had enough in those six years and returned to civilian life. Medcalf’s story is more than dog tags being found overseas. It has enough intrigue and interest to prob-ably make a better movie than many of those we see onscreen today.

There are those who presume being a police chief of a small town like Newburgh cannot real-ly be that difficult. However, Chief Brett Sprinkle

explained how that is a false assumption and why the Newburgh Police Force is working 24 hours a day, every day. He said Newburgh’s Police Depart-ment does the same things as Evansville’s, only on a smaller scale.

“We are finding that a lot of the same people who are causing problems in Evansville are also traveling to the Newburgh area and causing the same issues,” Sprinkle said. “We work well with the Evansville Police Department during our investigations and this partnership has helped solved several crimes over there and over here.”

When Sprinkle was a young officer, Dennis Pat-ton, the Chief of Police at the time, had him special-ize in narcotic investigations. During his tenure there, he saw a little bit of everything, including someone operating a meth lab out of a $700,000 home. Although he found the work rewarding, it required many hours away from his family and home life, along with the shift work that goes along with his occupation.

He said he has seen more heroin in the last year than in the last 10 years.

“Our biggest illegal drug problem right now is people using prescription medication illegally and the synthetic types of drugs,” Sprinkle said.

He said Newburgh Police Officers have dealt with known gang members from the Evansville area on several different occasions.

“We have also experienced gang-type graffiti along the downtown businesses and Rivertown Trail,” Sprinkle said.

The Newburgh Police Department is always trying to find ways to help its bud-get, such as grants, fundraisers and dona-tions of police equipment, DARE and K9 funds. Sprinkle said the Town Council and Metropolitan Board of Police Commission-ers have been good throughout the years, helping the police department find funding for the best equipment available to help them do their job.

Sprinkle, who played football for North

heroSmall town

High School, received his associate degree in criminal justice from Oakland City University, then completed his bachelor’s degree at Indiana Wesleyan. He started his career in law enforcement as a cor-rections officer for the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office, where he spent nine years. Sprinkle became a part-time police officer in the Newburgh Police Department in 1996 and was a full-time patrolman in January 1998. He graduated from the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy in 1998.

In 2001, he was promoted to Corporal and in ‘03, he was promoted to Assistant Chief of Police. While Sprinkle was away attending the FBI National Academy at Quantico, Va., Chief Patton passed away suddenly from a heart attack. Sprinkle came home from the National Academy and was promoted to Chief of Police on Jan. 1, 2005. He is not elected; he is appointed by the Metropolitan Board of Police Commissioners, which consists of three Newburgh Town Council Members.

“I have always worked hard to keep our police department very professional and I have always wanted the Town of Newburgh to be proud of their police department,” Sprinkle said. “I want to continue to provide the best protection for our citizens as possible. By doing this, I will continue to get our officers the best equipment and training that I possibly can.”

As a third-generation police officer, you could say it runs in the family; his grandfather and father were Evansville Police Officers.

“I will not discourage my children to go into law enforcement, but by the same token, I will not encourage it, either,” Sprinkle said. “I love police work and being a police officer and all I want for my chil-dren is to be able to go to work and be as happy as I am every day.”

Brett and his wife, Ellen, have a son, Garrett, a 17-year-old senior who plays football and wrestles at Castle High School.

“He and I have a good relationship,” Brett said. “We ride motor-cyles together.”

Their daughter, Jalen, is a 14-year-old eighth grader at Castle South Middle School.

After spending time with Chief Sprinkle, you realize that being a police chief is a tough job with many obstacles to overcome — whether you live in Newburgh or New York.

O n Nov. 6, 2005, the landscape of Warrick and Vanderburgh counties were changed forever. At approximately 1:50 a.m. on a Sunday morning, an F-3 tornado ripped through portions of

both counties. The wake left 23 dead and hundreds of homes destroyed. The wreckage has long since been cleared, but for the residents who lived through that fateful

night, the memories will always remain.

At left: The tornado entered Warrick Coun-ty near Angel Mounds and traveled north through subdivisions in Newburgh. The National Weather Ser-vice classified the tor-nado as an F-3, mean-ing winds reached between 158 and 206 miles per hour. Below: Emergency crews from all over the county helped with clearing debris from the affected areas.

The county wasn’t short on help. Volunteers (like the ones pictured on the left) came from all over to help the county dig out from under the rubble.

Many of us in the Western world believe that acupuncture is not much different than Shamans or

faith healers. However, at the Deaconess Gateway Women’s Hospital in Newburgh, Flora Arzanipour proves us wrong.

Her brother, Hamid, kept talking to her about pursuing Eastern medicine instead of Western medicine.

“I told him, ‘OK, I’ll look into it,’” Flora said. “I knew the pressure points.”

Living in Munster, she took a half-hour tour of a school in nearby Chicago, where she began studying to become an acupuncturist.

“I told my husband, ‘I want to do this,’’’ Arzanipour said.

She experienced culture shock moving from northern to southern Indiana.

“It is very different,” Arzanipour said. “People here are much friendlier and more laid-back. It’s slower here. I had to control myself from walking fast.”

In her native Iran, there are acupunctur-ists in nearly every city, she said.

Her son, “Hash,” now 23, gradu-ated from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University and now works for Amazon. Her daughter, Sarina, 21, attends Purdue and is studying to become a behavorial psychologist.

While many think of an acupuncturist as someone who heals an ailing back or something of that nature, Arzanipour said it’s all-encompassing. She said acupunc-ture, which has been practiced for 5,000 years, is for pain, neck, back and knee management, nausea, fatigue and can be used for headaches as well. It is even used for infertility.

Arzanipour used an analogy to explain how acupuncture works, saying the body is like a hose.

“If part of it is blocked, the water doesn’t want to go there,” she said. “Acu-puncture opens the pathways and allows it to flow freely.”

Arzanipour says stress causes virtually every illness.

“I believe stress is the mother of all diseases,’” she said. “Here (in the Western world) it is materialistic, everyone wants more and more: more money, a bigger car.”

She said not that many insurance packages cover acupuncture because it is considered alternative medicine.

“Here, they use more Western treatments,” said Arzanipour, who treats a lot of sinus and allergy issues in this area. “Acupuncture treats the body as a whole.”

She said it opens avenues to let the body heal itself.“We get to the root cause of illness, not just solve

the symptoms,” Arzanipour said. “We also do cosmetic acupuncture and facial rejuvenation, (to minimize) wrin-kles and bags under your eyes.”

She says if someone uses Botox, you can literally see their face drop. Recently, she attended a wedding and was having a conversation with her sister, when she noticed a woman who had some kind of face work done, including the blown-up lips like some of the Hol-lywood actresses. To her surprise, she later realized it was her cousin.

She believes in aging naturally, yet taking good care of your face and body to keep a youthful look.

“We use a natural approach to staying young and healthy naturally,” Arzanipour said.

People may want to heed her advice. She has a 35-year-old looking face and has two children in her 20s.

Shopping local on Small Business Saturday can have a bigger impact than you know.

Every Saturday after the infamous Black Friday, local busi-nesses all over America open their doors and roll out their wares to participate in Small Business Saturday. Some businesses are healthy and some are hurting, but all hope to draw in their neigh-bors and bring greater awareness to their communities of the need to shop small.

Having first created the event in 2010, American Express takes a large hand in providing effective advertising to local businesses, which has, so far, been successful. The company estimates that two years after the first Small Business Saturday, 73.9 million shop-pers participated, and that $14.3 billion was spent at small busi-nesses in 2014.

Still, a part of the formula for a successful event includes the help of local organizations. Warrick County has been participating in Small Business Saturday since 2013. Ever since then, the War-rick County Chamber of Commerce, headed by Executive Director Sherri Sherman, has been using social media, local papers and other methods to support the small businesses of Boonville, Chan-dler, Lynnville and Newburgh.

“The people that own the small businesses are the people that you know,” Sherman said. “They are your neighbors and your friends and the people you go to church with. Spending it with a J.C. Penny or wherever, that money is going to go to their corpo-rate headquarters. Yes, it pays salaries for some people that live in the community, but the profits are not staying in the community. Somebody local, they’re going to, most likely, use local advertisers and businesses.”

Scott Lauderdale of Newburgh has been the owner of Coun-try Gentleman’s Antiques, located in downtown Newburgh, for 30 years.

“When I first came here, there were two little sisters, little girls up the street that would come into the store with a dollar or two,” Lau-derdale said. “They wanted to buy a gift for their mom, and I always had to help them find a gift. If we had to, we made it fit the money that they had. These days, those young girls are grown women with babies, and now they bring their children into my store.”

In a 2011 study conducted by the Maine Center for Economic Policy, researchers found that $58 of every $100 spent locally returns the community, while only $33 returns from national stores, which breaks down to a 76 percent greater local investment. The researchers estimated that increasing local spending by just 10 percent in Cumberland County, Maine, would generate $127 million and 875 jobs. On a national level, $50 dollars every month from just half of all American employees would result in $42.6 billion in revenue, according to the 3/50 project, an organization dedicated to local spending.

“We’re not telling people don’t shop on Black Friday,” Sherman said, “but don’t forget what a benefit it is to spend your money local and find those unique gifts that you’re not going to be able to find some place else. Everyone talked about wanting the small towns to have businesses on the main street or on the square, and, in order for them to stay in business, they have to be able to sell their prod-uct. And in order to do that, they’ve got to have people to buy it.”

Many of us are familiar with the expression, “failing to plan is planning to fail.” As an Agent with New York Life, I can assure you that — when it comes to financial goals and objectives — this old adage still rings true.

In fact, it may be more relevant than ever. It isn’t always easy for some Americans to make financial headway. With pensions in decline and interest rates near historic lows, it usu-

ally takes persistence and sound planning in order to get ahead. Not sure how to begin? That’s okay—it’s easy to become overwhelmed if you think about all your needs at once. Instead, try taking it

one step at a time, starting with the basics:•Build an emergency fund — No matter where you are in life, it’s important to set aside 8 to 10 months of living expenses. You don’t

have to do it all at once, but every dollar you save today is a dollar you won’t have to borrow if something unexpected happens. •Protect your home and family — Most of us have people who depend on us to keep a roof over their heads and food on their plates.

That’s a big responsibility, but it’s one life insurance can help you meet — even if something tragic takes you away. You can start with an affordable term life plan at first, and then add more coverage as your needs and budget grow.

•Prepare for major expenses like college — As a parent or grandparent, you naturally want the best for your loved ones. Now’s the time to start a college or wedding fund so they won’t have to go into debt to make their dreams for the future come true.

•Get ready for retirement — There are plenty of ways to set aside money for retirement: 401(k)s, IRAs, and fixed deferred annuities* just to name a few. But they all have one thing in common — the sooner you start, the better off you’ll be in the long run. Try to increase your contributions over time — perhaps 1% with each raise — or, if you are age 50 or older, look into some of the ‘catch-up’ provisions that may allow you to contribute even more.

While the recession forced many of us to take a step back financially, it also helped refocus our attention on the things that really matter. A sound financial game plan can help us accomplish many things — but perhaps the most important is making sure we never lose sight of them again.

Planning for your future


While browsing in a store recently, I witnessed a woman’s frustration with her two little children crying and acting up. I remember being in that position years ago and feeling the same frustration. However, I wanted to go tell that lady to hold onto that moment because one day in the blink of an eye, it would be a memory. I would do

anything to have my kids be little again, knowing how fleeting that moment in time actually is.Now when I get a call from them, I light up. They are very good about calling me and remembering to call and

sending me something on every happy and sad occasion. On the anniversary of my mom’s passing or dad’s, or their birthdays, my son, Michael, always calls and says: “I know this is a sad day for you, mom.”

That is all great, but I wish I had a magic pill that just for one day had them needing mommy. I loved being the room mother at Sharon Elementary School. When I would dress up for Halloween, the kids would love it. I was chaperone for my son Eric’s sixth grade dance and when the pizzas from Pizza Chef came, the room was full of hungry, excited kids and I knew that my son thought I was the best mom ever.

The plays and shows were so much fun. Michael never lets me forget dressing him up as Pat Benatar and still talks about it to this day. I remember Mindy Tibbles and I laughing as our sons Eric and John were dressed up as grapes and doing a dance to “I Heard It Through The Grapevine.”

Of course, how can I forget the 5 a.m. wakeups on hockey weekends. Ice time was at a premium and I thought I hated it. But thinking back of the first time I saw my 7-year-old son in his first hockey uniform when the shirt was as long as a dress, I have tears every time. I considered being at the concession stand during Little League games sheer drudgery. Boy, would I gladly do it today if my kids were the ones behind the bats. Kids’ sports were enjoy-able, except, of course, for the parents, who made it infuriating by yelling and getting mad when their child was not playing well or they thought the umpire made the wrong call. Now, when I pass the ball fields and see the kids, I get sad. This is selfish, but these are my real feelings.

Having young children is a hard time in life. However, that hardship seems to disappear when they race into the living room on Christmas morning and see the presents Santa had brought. I can still hear Michael screech, “Castle Gray Skull, Wow!” We can all remember dragging ourselves from store to store to find that item that the kid had to have, but was sold out and the euphoria when you finally found it. Many holiday seasons, we went back to New

York and they loved skating at Rockefeller Center and seeing the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall. My parents were not Chris-tian and we did not have all the ornaments and lights, but there were gifts and they made a Hanukkah table with fancy bows. The kids knew when they arrived back in Indiana that Santa would have already been there. I had wonderful friends who knew where presents were hidden and put them up the day we were coming home.

Thank goodness they are happy and well-adjusted and enjoying life to the fullest. For that, I am thankful. I remember when I was cleaning out Michael’s stuff after he had left for Western Kentucky University and I found one sock under his bed. I sat there with that sock and cried my eyes out. Just the other day, I found a half-full coloring book in a box in the garage. I do not know which of my children did the coloring. It was awful and yet beautiful at the same time.

Memories of little ones are all around, but mostly inside me. They are flooding as I write this, such as Eric falling asleep during the Beach Boys concert at Roberts Stadium. Taking him and his friend Jason to the M.C. Hammer concert, being in the front row and them telling me the songs to write down for a column because I did not know a single song title. Some people thought I was wrong to drop my son and a friend off to see Mari-lyn Manson. You know what? They enjoyed it and their souls were intact when they left.

I was jealous of the frustrated woman. She was having the most rewarding years of her life and did not even know it. I love my job and running and my husband and my wonderful friends. I burst with pride when I watch my son on his new television show, “Impastor.” However, the role he played that I loved the best was just sent to me by some-body via the net. It was him playing the DJ in Castle High School’s “Grease.” Because on that night when the applause was over and the lights had dimmed, he came home to his room and his bunkbed in our house and he still needed me.

A quiet retreat


The Warrick County Community Foundation is part of a regional Community Foundation Alliance consist-ing of nine counties: Daviess, Gibson, Knox, Perry,

Pike, Posey, Spencer, Vanderburgh and Warrick. This alli-ance provides management and administrative expertise to each partner county community foundation. It works to promote philanthropy, build endowments and improve each local community.

The Warrick County Community Foundation is a tax-exempt charitable organization that provides support from funds that it maintains and administers on behalf of mul-tiple donors.

The foundation works with individuals and organizations to create endowed funds that provide permanent financial support for local programs and services in the Warrick County area. Donors create endowment funds for a vari-ety of reasons. They may establish funds in memory of a loved one, as gratitude to the county where their families and businesses have thrived, as a way to responsibly use their wealth in meaningful ways, or to support causes and charitable organizations that are dear to their heart. Funds provided by individuals will be used as financial support in the community for generations to come.

The foundation takes pride in funding a variety of charitable programs and services during the annual grant cycle provided by the Community Good Funds. For example: feeding the hungry through local food pantries, providing school-aged children dental care who could not afford treatment, educational mentoring programs, child abuse prevention, senior center enrichment and support for the families of cancer patients. The beginning of the Newburgh Rivertown trail was funded by a grant provided by the Warrick County Com-munity Foundation, as was Studio Bee Community Center, which serves low income families and youth in Boonville.

In November, the Warrick County Community Foundation will be partnering with Heritage Federal Credit Union to celebrate Philanthropy Week. Charitable gifts can be given online or at HFCU local branches.

On April 25, 2016, at Rolling Hills Country Club, the foundation will host its annual Women’s Fun(D) Day. There is shopping from local vendors, a style show and dining. All funds raised are used to support local programs.

Late spring and summer, the foundation also hosts their annual fundraising golf event and the Celebration of Giving dinner to recognize scholars, grantees and the donors that help make good things happen.

The Foundation Advisory Board is strategically planning ways to grow endowments substantially over the next few years to build their capacity to serve the community and to make transformational grants from the Community Good Funds. This will take major gifts and support from the community.

Currently eligible donations are being matched with grant money provided by Lilly Endowment through the GIFT (Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow) VI program. All eligible gifts donated to the foundation will be matched until March 31, 2016. This is an amazing opportunity to make a charitable gift and create a legacy.

For more information on how to volunteer or donate, go to www.warrickcommunityfoundation.org. Dona-tions can be made online or mailed to the office. Contact the Foundation office at 812-897-2030.

The foundation is located in Boonville in the Old National Bank Building.The Community Foundation is a charitable resource devoted to Warrick County. They take pride in help-

ing people make meaningful gifts that improve life in our county today and for generations to come.-----Bobbi Hammonds is a freelance journalist for the Newburgh Magazine and the vice president and media

Seeing the loving, warm mother of three young girls, you would never associate her with being a Marine. However, Newburgh resident Lisa Ashby Goff is just that.

At age 23, Lisa went in “Open Contract” with the USMC because she did not know what job she wanted to do.

“I just wanted to choose the most challenging branch as an adventur-ous journey,” Goff said.

After boot camp at Parris Island, she went to combat training at Camp Lajeune, then aircraft rescue and firefighting at Goodfellow Air Force Base in San Angelo, Texas. Goff was stationed in Hawaii from 1998 to 2001.

She met her first husband, New Yorker John Werner, who was also a Marine, in Hawaii. They had a daughter, Ashlyn, in 1999.

After Goff’s contract was finished in 2001, she and Ashlynn joined her dad, moving to Long Island. He was stationed at a Brooklyn air field. He was deployed as she worked at the IRS, then a real estate agency while finishing college. They later had their second daughter, Lauren, in 2004.

“The deployments seemed to keep us married longer,” Goff said. “Once he returned, it was difficult to be harmonious under the same roof. I took our daughters and moved back home to Indiana in the summer of 2006.

“I grew up in Warrick County and my roots are here,” she said.Goff was later married and divorced again; she had a third daughter,

Zinnia, who was born in 2008.She said it isn’t easy being a single parent. Recently, as she prepared to leave for work at SWIRCA in Evansville,

and take her kids to day camp, Lauren, now 11, had a headache.

“Then she barfed in the vehicle after we were almost to our destination,” Goff said. “I dropped her off anyway, checked into work, then took my lunch break at 8:30 a.m., so I could pick her up and take her home. These are the kind of chal-lenges single parents face. I will be fired if I miss any more work. It’s hard to balance family and career when you are just one person and the only adult in your children’s lives.”

Dating is a problem.“It’s a double standard,” Goff said. “You’re

damned if you do and damned if you don’t. Peo-ple treat single moms that they ‘should be moms only’ and if they have a significant other, they ‘shouldn’t’ put romance first.”

Of if they date casually, people have the per-ception that men are coming in and out of your life.

She finds it gratifying to work with senior citi-zens “because they are inspirational. I hear their stories and see some of the challenges they have endured and losses they have suffered.”

Goff said that puts things into perspective when she looks at her own life.

“It makes me appreciate my own strengths and cherish my blessings,” she said. “It also reminds me that each moment is fleeting, whether good or bad. So ‘this too shall pass’ but don’t wish away the present because it will all be memories too soon. Savor the blessings of the moment.”

She said Rosemary Ashby, her 86-year-old grandmother, provides her biggest moral support.

“But she is elderly now, now so she cannot be available to my kids and myself as she always was,” said Goff, a Tecumseh High School gradu-ate. “She was like a mom to me. We went and saw her for her birthday. I’m independent and on my own.”

Goff enjoys her new job and sees it as a career.

“I’m not making big bucks, but I am happy doing what I love,” Goff said. “I try to set a good example for my daughters. Work hard, do what is right, be responsible and depend on no one but yourself. I plan to show them reasonable paths to having a successful life and guide them with whatever reams they wish to pursue.”

Whether it’s being a Marine, a mom or work-ing at SWIRCA, Lisa Ashby Goff always gives her all.
