TOUCH
“It Means So Much To Stay In Touch”
RETIREMENT DOESN’T SPELL THE END OF TEACHING
by Al Fairchild
LaVern Prinsen has devoted most of
his adult life to educating the children of Sheboygan County. Now
retired and serving as the volunteer
site manager for Cedar Grove Senior Dining, Prinsen, 89, spent many
years teaching in local schools, followed by years more as a school
administrator. In the beginning,
though, he wasn’t at all sure of what
he wanted to do.
Prinsen was raised on a farm two
miles west of Cedar Grove, and
thought at first that he might continue pursuing that vocation. After
graduating from high school at the
age of 17 he tried farming, but found
that it wasn’t for him. He went on to
work as a greens keeper at a local
golf course, and then tried his hand
laboring at canning and block-and-tile factories. The young graduate then
picked up some experience in a cheese factory before working for the county,
where he performed soil testing and even set up snow fences.
The job that helped steer him towards a career working with young people,
though, was a year-long stint as a milk tester. Prinsen says that, in hindsight,
it was while performing that job he realized he enjoyed working with kids.
Personal interactions during that era were much different from what they are
today. People were more likely to assume the best of others, and that kind of
trust led Prinsen to discover he had something special to offer the children of
his neighbors.
“When I was testing milk,” he explains, “I’d often find myself needing to test at
night and then again in the morning, so I’d be invited to stay for (cont. on p. 9)

In Wisconsin, each county is required to designate or contract with
an agency to operate an elder abuse reporting system. In Sheboygan County, that agency is Sheboygan County Health and Human Services. The Elder Services unit has the responsibility for
receiving the elder abuse referrals and conducting the investigations. Each county is also responsible for having an Interdisciplinary Team (I-Team) to help promote community awareness of elder abuse and to assist in problem solving on difficult situations.

Four Common Myths About Cataracts
Senior Meet and Eat
MYTH 1: Activities like reading up close or detailed work
like sewing can worsen cataracts. FACT: Cataracts are not
caused by how you use your eyes. This is a misconception
because often people need more light or the symptoms of
cataracts are more pronounced when doing up-close work.
The AARP meeting for the month of June will be a
picnic at the Sheboygan County Museum. The
time as usual will be 11:30 a.m. This will be our
last meeting until September. Come and enjoy our
summer kick-off picnic.
MYTH 2: Cataracts are reversible.̘FACT: Unfortunately,
the cataract process is unavoidable. The only way to improve the condition is through cataract surgery. But you
may be able to slow its progress by always wearing sunglasses, avoiding smoking and eating a balanced diet.
You do not need to be a member of the Sheboygan
AARP chapter to attend. For more information, call
920-467-6634.
MYTH 3: Cataract surgery recovery takes a long time.̘
FACT: Cataract surgery is one of the safest and most common surgical procedures you can have—with success rates
of 95 percent. Of course risks exist and will be discussed
by your surgeon before your cataract surgery. You can get
back to normal activities the day after surgery when the eye
patch is removed. Some of our patients notice immediate
improvement and some notice a more gradual improvement
weeks and up to a few months afterwards.
MYTH 4: Cataracts come back. FACT: Cataracts are not a
“growth” that sits on top of your eye. They are the result of
dead cells building up. Sometimes patients develop a secondary cataract over time. If this happens it can be treated
easily with laser eye surgery.

HEALTH HIGHLIGHT:
June Is Men’s Health Month
Men die at higher rates than women from the top 10 causes of death and are the victims of over 92% of
workplace deaths. (BLS)
In 1920, women lived, on average, one year longer than men. Now, men, on average, die almost five years
earlier than women. (CDC
There is a silent health crisis in America...it’s that fact that, on average, American men live sicker and die
younger than American women.” Dr. David Gremillion, Men’s Health Network
Women are 100% more likely to visit the doctor for annual examinations and preventive services than men.
(CDC 2001)
There are 115 males conceived for every 100 females.
Twenty-five percent more newborn males die than females.
Three-fifths of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) victims are boys.
Men suffer hearing loss at twice the rate of women.
Men have fewer infection-fighting T-cells and are thought to have weaker immune systems than women.
By the age of 100, women outnumber men eight to one. (NYT Magazine 3-16-03)
Depression in men is undiagnosed contributing to the fact that men are four times as likely to commit suicide.
The suicide rate for persons age 65 and above is 28.5% for men and 3.9% for women.

Ask The Pharmacist

Cancer Screening Guidelines
Not all cancers are created equal. And, not all cancer
screening is equally effective at saving lives. For example, some doctors order ovarian cancer screening. But,
the tests used to help spot ovarian cancer often cause
false alarms, increase costs, and lead to unnecessary
procedures – without saving lives.
Other types of screening, such as for cervical or colon
cancers, are much more helpful at preventing cancer or
finding it early and reducing deaths. Here is what you
need to know about new screening guidelines for these
two cancers.
Cancer Survivors Day
@SurvivorsDay
National Cancer Survivors
Day is an annual, worldwide
Celebration of Life held in
hundreds of communities on
the first Sunday in June. ncsd.org
Cervical cancer: In the past few decades, screening has helped reduce deaths from cervical cancer. Researchers have learned a great deal about the best ways to screen for this type of cancer. As a result, the
American Cancer Society (ACS) revised its guidelines. One of the big changes in the screening guidelines has
to do with how often to get a Pap test.
The ACS included guidelines for both the Pap test and HPV (human papilloma virus) test. The Pap test can
find early cell changes or cancer. The HPV test finds certain infections that can lead to cell changes and cancer.
According to the new guidelines, cervical screening for women should begin at age 21, even if you have had the
HPV vaccine. The ACS recommends:
Ages 21–29: A Pap test every 3 years.
Ages 30–65: A Pap test and HPV test every 5 years or a Pap test every 3 years.
Ages 65 and older: No screening if regular screenings have produced normal results, but continued
screening if you have been diagnosed with cervical pre-cancer.
You may need to be screened more often if you are at high risk for cervical cancer. You do not need screening
at all if you have had your uterus and cervix removed and have no history of cervical cancer or pre-cancer.
Colon cancer: In the U.S., colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Recent
studies show that screening prevents colorectal cancers. It also cuts deaths from the disease. Still, only 6 in 10
adults 50 and older get screened.
New guidelines from the American College of Physicians (ACP) now focus on each person's individual risk.
People of average risk: Screening should start at age 50. This includes stool sample tests or insertion of a
narrow tube with a camera into the rectum (optical colonoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy).
People at high risk (with inflammatory bowel disease or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer):
Screening should start at age 40 or earlier. People at high risk should have optical colonoscopy. This is the
most sensitive test.
People who are over 75 or have a life expectancy of less than 10 years do not need screening.

dinner, and then to stay overnight and have breakfast in the morning. I began to notice that the farm children
would accept me almost as a part of the family. I remember once being invited by a farm couple to attend a
birthday party for their daughter,” Prinsen recalls. “And then there was another time when I had to stay at a
farm overnight and I was put up in the same room with the family’s two-year-old son,” he says.
“Now, who would do that today?” He chuckles. “That same child was very quiet and seldom spoke, but just as
I was ready to leave, he began to talk to me ... and he talked and talked and talked!” Prinsen realized then that
he had a way with youngsters.
Not long after that, a friend from his church urged Prinsen to go off with him to college, and the two entered the
Sheboygan County Normal School in Sheboygan Falls to study teaching.
That’s where Prinsen met his future wife, Marion Franz. They
graduated with teaching degrees two years later, and he began
instructing grades 1-8 at River Valley School, a one-room
schoolhouse that still stands at the intersection of Eernisse
Road and County Road KW, north of Cedar Grove in the Town
of Holland.
LaVern and Marion were married a year later. Prinsen went on
to teach at the little River Valley School for a total of four years
before moving on to teach grades 5-8 at the two-room Hingham
State Graded School. Ironically, during his first year at Hingham, the teacher of the other group, grades 1-4, was Prinson’s
new wife, Marion.
Prinsen’s career eventually took him back to Cedar Grove, the place where he had graduated from high school
in 1942. There, he taught seventh grade for seven years, and then gave up teaching for administrative duties,
becoming principal for another 21 years. During his time as principal, Prinsen developed and ran a State Title
1 summer-school program for Kindergarten through sixth-grade children. He personally administered the program, developing the budget, hiring staff, and taking care of transportation, among other responsibilities. He
integrated the children of migrant workers from a camp in nearby Belgium into the program, and hired teachers
from Texas to ease language difficulties.
By the time he retired in 1984, LaVern Prinsen had served the educational community in Sheboygan County
for a total of 35 years. But Prinsen’s passion for teaching didn’t end there. LaVern and Marion both volunteered to help out at Southern Normal School, which served minority students in Brewton, Alabama. They
served for up to six weeks a year for 13 years, during which time Prinson taught seventh and eighth graders
full-time for one whole year.
Now back home in Cedar Grove, Prinsen is continuing to serve his community by volunteering
as site manager of Cedar Grove Senior Dining,
where he draws on his past experience with the
public schools to provide unique student programs for the dining participants, and invaluable
service experience for the students who present
those programs.
And as if Prinsen were not keeping busy
enough, there’s another group of “students” he
teaches. “How about the chipmunks?” Marion
asks. Prinsen fidgets in his chair a bit, and then says, “Well, I’ve been teaching our local chipmunks some
things for the past few years.” What sorts of things? “I’m teaching them to be my pets,
Seniors In Touch Newsletter | 9
(Retirement Doesn’t Spell The End Of Teaching, cont. from p.
1) even though they remain in the wild,” Prinsen says.
“If I open the window, they’ll come in and perch on my
knee or even climb into my shirt pocket so I can feed
them peanuts.”
The lifelong educator glances out the window towards
his bird feeders, where an increasing number of songbirds have begun to gather in the early-spring sunlight.
“The chipmunks should be back soon,” he muses, and it
becomes obvious that even retirement cannot keep a
good teacher down.

Did You Know?
Did You Know?
Trout isn’t just a favorite fish for us humans.
They’re also a popular prey target for eagles and
brown bears.
The Megapiranha is the fish with the world’s
strongest bite.
The world’s rarest species of whale is the Spade
-Toothed Beaked Whale.
If you’re going to share fish with your feline
friends, it’s best to go with a whitefish such as
Cod, Haddock, or Flounder. Too much tuna can
deplete the levels of Vitamin E within a cat’s system.1
The fish currently holding the record for the longest time living in an aquarium is Granddad, an
Australian Lungfish who has been living in Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium since 1933.
William James Morrison was a dentist, lawyer, and
author from Nashville, Tennessee in the late 19th
and early 20th centuries.
Dr. Morrison patented several inventions in the food
department. He developed a process for extracting
the oil from cottonseeds and converting it to lard
substitute, and even figured out a chemical process
to purify the public drinking water in Nashville.
In 1897, he and a Nashville candy maker named
John C. Wharton conceived and co-patented an
“electric candy machine” which produced what was
then called Fairy Floss and today is called Cotton
Candy. The product was brought to the public in
1904 and became a huge instant success.
