Accident on Highway 78 leaves one injured
By CJ Eilers,
News Editor
At 3:23 p.m. on Thursday, July 7, a Mack
semi and a 2009 Chevy HHR were involved in
an accident on Highway 78 near the intersection with Highway 149 that result in the driver
of the semi injured.
State patrol, Sigourney Fire, Richland Fire,
Hedrick QRS, Sheriff ’s Dept from both Ke-
okuk and Jefferson County, Packwood Fire
and Keokuk County Health Center responded to the call. The semi had rolled over on the
driver’s side and was blocking off the highway.
Brandon Rozendall, 29, of Lynnville, was injured but conscious. Jessica Buehneman witnessed the crash, with she and her husband
providing what assistance they could.
“We stopped and ran up to him,” Bueh-
neman said. “All he was saying was to get a
window down so he could breathe. [My husband] was with me so he grabbed the window
and broke it out, then went out to stop traffic
while I stayed.”
Firefighters and medics were able to get
Rozendall out of the vehicle and unto a helicopter about an hour later, according to Buehneman. The helicopter took him to Mercy in
Des Moines, where he is recovering from a
collarbone injury and will require surgery.
According to the crash report filed by the
State Patrol, both vehicles were westbound on
78 when the semi rear ended the HHR. The
semi rolled on it’s side, while the HHR came
to a rest in a nearby ditch, with the driver unharmed. A release from the Sheriff ’s department was not available in time for publication.

Keokuk County Disaster Assistance Team
Amie Van Patten,
News Editor
Volunteers are a hard thing to
come by, but in our small county you can always count on two
when disaster strikes. Wayne and
Sandy Smithart have been helping
local fire departments and emergency personnel on their own
since 2008. When needed, they arrive on scene and provide refreshments for emergency personnel.
“We want to make sure that everyone is hydrated and has food while
working these fires. If someone is
called out to a fire in the afternoon
that lasts past dinner time, we
want to know that they are keeping themselves hydrated and have
something to eat to help sustain
energy needed to fight fires because chances are they haven’t had
anything since at least noon”, says
Wayne.
This organization is funded by
the Smithart family and generous donors. In 2011, Wayne had
saved enough money on his own
that they expanded and bought a
trailer. “I told him get it or forget
it”, Sandy chuckled as she talked
about a cold fire night that caused
the final decision to add the trailer. The current set up also includes
two canopies and a generator that
have been donated by local departments, but also includes fans,
tables and more that the Smithart’s
have bought on their own to set
up at any scene. In the event of a
small fire, small snacks like cookies and gatorade are offered. In
larger fires, there have been times
where they have ordered in food
or local businesses have been gracious enough to donate to help
with their efforts.
Keokuk County Disaster Assistance Team (DAT) provides assistance to all nine departments
in Keokuk county. The most recent event was the scene of Keota
Schools were they provided cookies, coffee, hot chocolate, Gatorade and water to local firefighters.
Sigourney plans $500,000 for multiple projects
By CJ Eilers,
News Editor
The City of Sigourney will take
out $500,000 in loans for several
projects, including a new storm
sewer on East Jackson, resurfacing
the parking spaces on the square
along Elam and Spring, and build
a brand new salt shed.
$150,000 will go to building the
salt shed, as the current storage
tank is rusting and unsafe. Salt is
also lost to the elements while in
storage. Using specially treated
wood that is water resistant, the
shed will provide a better environment to store salt for the winter
season. According to Mayor Doug
Glandon, the project should be
completed by the end of the fall
$350,000 of that $500,000 will
go to the storm sewer and park-
ing spaces. The DOT has notified
the city that they will be resurfacing Highway 92 and 149 through
Sigourney, including putting
handicap accessible sidewalks at
intersections that don’t have them.
Through rolling up several loans
at once, the interest save totals
about $167,000 in ten years, which
more than pays for the salt shed.

South English librarian
heads into retirement
After 10 years at the South English
Library, Barbara Spicer is letting
someone else take the reins as she
entered retirement at the end of June.
Spicer, a resident of South English
for more than 20 years, has been
instrumental in keeping the library
organized, accessible to all, and automating the system to keep track
of the 8,000 plus items available. According to Spicer, this was just the
right time to retire.
“A library director does the same
amount of work despite the size,
but with less people to help,” Spicer
said. “I just felt the time came where
I am not as able to complete all my
responsibilities.”
Brandi Meyer, who is working on
her library certification, will run the
South English Library now. Jeni Vos
of North English recently took the
time to paint a tree inside the library,
and will finish the project soon.

English Public Library.
During retirement, Spicer and
her husband Larry plan on taking a
3-week vacation to see family on the
West Coast and explore Yellowstone
Park. The couple plans to travel as
often as they can afford, and working on their house. They have one
daughter, Shandra, and five grandchildren. Spicer has also hosted 20
foster kids.

Ariel from “The Little Mermaid” visits Sigourney Public Library
By CJ Eilers,
News Editor
All the way from the underwater
kingdom of Atlantica, Princess Ariel
made a visit to the Sigourney Public
Library on Wednesday, July 6 to have
some fin-ny fun with overjoyed children.
Kids were able to ask the Disney
princess questions about life as a
mermaid, play mermaid games like
bubble popping and “Sharks in the
Water”, watch Ariel perform water
coloring tricks, and sing along to popular songs from the movie. Amanda
Rostami, Sigourney Public Library
Director, organized the event after
hearing about a certain princess making an appearance at the Pella Library,
and became extremely curious.
“We found out about this company that has actresses perform as
Disney princesses that will visit libraries, go to parties and events from
that library,” Rostami said. “Once we
learned about Ariel being at Pella, we
thought it would be great to have her
visit our library.”
The company is called Little Princess Parties, based out of Urbandale.
According to their website, Little
Princess Parties was founded in 2005,
striving to “not only entertain with
songs, stories, games and more, but
we encourage your little ones to be
the best princesses and princes they
can be.”
Ariel was played by Emmy Cuvelier,
a Iowa State University student majoring in Performing Arts. Cuvelier
began performing as the popular Disney icon a year and a half ago.
“I was job searching one day and an
ad came up looking for someone to
play the part of Ariel,” Cuvelier said.
“I’ve been a part of this company ever
since, and I love it!”
Ariel also signed autographs, handed
out pretty “Dinglehoppers” and took
pictures with all her adoring fans
present, boys and girls alike. The library staff were just as excited to take
photos with Cuvelier’s character.
“This was a lot of fun for everyone
involved,” Rostami said. “The kids
loved it and we enjoyed have Ariel
here.”
The Sigourney Public Library will
be hosting several kid-friendly events
over the course of the summer. Next
will be the Water Olympics at the
Sigourney Public Library on Thursday, July 14 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. for

Douglas Black
Douglas Alan Black, age 57, of Donna Texas, passed away on July 2, 2016
following a 6 month battle to recover from complications of multiple spider
bites that occurred when Doug stepped down off the tractor into a nest of
spiders during his daily work routine.
Doug was born on March 7, 1959
in Washington, IA. He was the son of
the late Orin Black and Lola Black Arbogast. He attended school in Washington, IA until his Junior year when
he moved to Sigourney, IA where he
graduated from High School. Doug
married Terri Utterback in Sigourney,
IA. They had two children, Jeremy and

2009, Doug married Cindy Dillon of

Doug worked for the Mahaska County Farm Service until 1989. He then worked
for Crop Production Services in the Oskaloosa, Iowa area until 1997. He sold drainage tile until 2009 when he married and moved to Donna, TX where Doug worked

operation. Doug was well respected and deeply cared for by his friends, clients and

says that Doug was the best blocking back he ever had on the football team. He
loved supporting his children’s sporting endeavors as they developed their own
interests. He loved cheering for Jeremy during his wrestling career and he also
loved horses so helping Katie as she competed in horse show events brought him
great pleasure. He also loved being a grandfather of his 6 precious grandchildren.

A Night Of ‘Pickin’ Gets The Fair A Kickin’
By Amie Van Patten, Editor
If there is one thing that gets the
Opera house going, it is a night
with James Moore and other local
musicians. James Moore is a name
well known around the area. James
Moore and the Rock ‘N Flames were
one of the first rock and roll bands
formed in eastern Iowa. Found by
brothers James and Sidney Moore
in 1957, the original members were
James on lead guitar, Sidney on bass
guitar, Roy Cadwell on drums, and
Ron Coghlan on rhythm guitar. All
four were from What Cheer. They
traveled all over Iowa in a 1955 Pontiac with a trailer full of equipment.
They were one of the first groups in
the area to combine choreographed
moves with their own arrangements
and original works as well as all the
top tunes of the day making them
the show band to be watched. They
had the honor to open for stars such
as Sue Thompson, Bobby Rydell,
Bobby Vee, Bobby Bare, Jerry Lee
Lewis, Ray Charles, Conway Twitty,
and many others.
Since then James has been helping
put local musician shows together all
over and they have Pickers Festival
every year at the opera house. This
year he was joined by a few more
local celebrities. Cass Moore has
joined James in The Rockin’ Flames,
Stan Knipfer and Bill Morris have
played in several local bands, Jake
Edmundson was longtime drummer for Fatal Addiction, Matt Brower is in a band called Hard Barney as
well as Double Dose. Gary Van Patten travels to Texas and plays as well
as being in the Rathbun country
music show and Charlie Sigafoose
Keswick American Legion
Ice Cream
Social
Ice Cream, Cake, Toppings
and Cold Meat Sandwiches
played at the Iowa State Fair for several years as well. This well-rounded
musically talented group made for a
night of memories for fans of music.
The opera house has been known
for having a lot of talented acts take
the stage in the historic building, but
I think it is safe to say that Pickers
Fest is a favorite of the locals. From
Ross Hemsley

You!

OPINION/EDITORIAL
Just reminiscing
By Hilda Souer
Yes, I remember some about when
there was a disastrous fire in town
that destroyed the businesses on the
east side of main or center street – a
drug store and a barber shop were
among those lost. However, Delta
had also had earlier disastrous fires.
The first that my mother remembered was east of the town’s first post
office. She said it was a large wooden
building that had the first post office
and the Delta Press. Another fire
was in the same general area and destroyed the Kinder Hotel and their
Livery stable. Mother also remembered that there was no fire whistle
or nor any fire fighting equipment.
However, there was a bell and, if it
was a bad fire, someone would ring
the bell – and sometimes church
bells were run or sometimes the
school bell. Both men and women,
who were able, would grab a bucket and run to the scene and form a
bucket brigade.
Oh! Yes I forgot there was a produce house that among those lost
in the fire on the east side of main
or center street. It was owned by
A.C. Reynolds. Mother’s notes also
said there was a Lodge Hall above
the Drug Store that was lost in the
fire. The band stand was south of the
drug store.
The meat market lost in this fi re
was operated by “Big Hick” Knox
and his son, Willie. They also had
an ice house and “harvested” river
ice in winters and delivered it in
summer.
There was more than one store in
what was known as the cement block
building or today’s Delta Grocery.
Back then there was a real estate office, a dentist office, Albert Bell had
the real estate and insurance office.
Dr. Hulse was the dentist and later
Dr. Kresey.
On the lower level of this large
building there was another real
estate and insurance man whose
name was Will Brokaw. Then, before
he was a barber, Ellis Bowen ran a
dray wagon as did Jim Bensler and
George Heming’s but at a different
time than Bowen.
In mother’s notes she told of the
school superintendents she recalled
– A Mr. Miller, a Mr. Buell, Bruce
Yaeger, Smith Trump, Carl Nelson,
and Mr. Williams.
Note: and I remember when Mr.
Darnielle was superintendent.
A cashless society
The concept of paper money
elimination/cashless society has
been “dangled” before the American public for several decades;
using the myth of “saving paper/
preserving trees” as a selling point;
all-the-while promoting the “safe,
secure, convenient” mantra of online banking; which – as millions
of computer hackers worldwide
have now irrefutably proven – is
anything but safe and secure. Unfortunately, the average “Joe” will
utilize electronic financial transactions because he is addicted to convienence; and has been ignorantly
conditioned to surrendering his
personal financial privacy through
the deception of a “Facebook 9read:
‘fakebook’) mentality.”
Until now, Americans have never
known the very real spectre of existing under a repressive, totalitarian
regime which would use their per-
petually-recorded, data-based personal information against them. As
such, a cashless society represents a
huge, irresistible new means of electronically monitoring – and manipulating – all financial transactions
under the watchful, “all-seeing eye”
of surveillance by a Big Brother government; currently headquarted in
Brussels, Belgium (coincidentally
the home of the planet’s largest database computer system; appropriately nicknamed ‘The Beast’!?!); and
regulated /maintained “24/7, 365”
by designated United Nations (UN)/
European (EU) officials. A cashless
society will force all citizens to participate in the international electronic banking system which is currently
‘up and running’ at a local financial
institute near you; and will ultimately be tyrannically controlled by
unelected global bureaucrats. Subsequently, these banking ‘dictators’
will be able to regulate how much
electronic money each individual
possess; how much is spent; where it
is spent; and what is spent on.
For a free society to maintain a sovereign nation-state, two basic rights
are essential: the right to possess –
and utilize – unlimited personal cash
and related resources; and the right
to bear arms in order to protect and
preserve said possessions and property. Anything less is not an option.

Tales of the Ancient Sportsman
Your 2016 Keokuk County Fair Queen and I had a late night ride
on the kiddie coaster. She didn’t even put her hands up!
Thoughts of a Suburb Kid
To say this last month has been
crazy busy would be an understatement, but I love it. So far this summer I’ve covered Keota Fun Days,
RAGBRAI’s pre-ride through the
county, the 4th of July in Sigourney, several great events through
the Public Library, and the Keokuk
County Fair. Am I anywhere near
done? Absolutely not.
My experience at the county fair
was one of the most enjoyable I’ve
had since starting my job. I got to
interact with plenty of great people, but my time with one person
this weekend was quite different. Of
course, I’m talking about this year’s
County Fair Queen, Abbey Hartwig.
I spent all of Friday night covering
the coronation and the horse show
afterwards, which allowed me to get
to know a few fun facts and observe
a few things about Abbey.
She was bitten across her hand when
she was 6 years old, ouch! Despite a
few nerves around the horses, Abbey
gracefully and respectfully presented
awards out to riders and their horses
throughout Friday and Saturday.
This young lady has a beautiful
singing voice. I had heard about
this, but got to experience it for the
first time just before the horse show.
Abbey was apparently asked to sing
our national anthem, and nerves certainly got to her. However, she sang
again the next day and SLAYED it!
Her voice has a nice timbre to it, and
I encourage her to keep singing her
heart out. After dueting on “The Final Countdown” while hanging out,
I’m pretty sure we could take the music world by storm!
While her vocals are killer, Abbey
is also involved in speech (she participated in All-State), drama, cheerleading, FFA, band, dance, youth
group, student council, softball and
just being a total boss!
And what would a queen be without her dress? Abbey rocked a gorgeous dress and smile all Friday
night. Adults complimented her
frequently. Girls looked up to her in
awe, hoping one day to also dawn
the tiara. Heck, even one shy little
boy would not take his eyes off her.
All the while, Abbey kindly stood
for tons of photos (which I’m guilty
of taking a lot myself), talked with
anyone who approached her, and
carried out her duties despite being
rather tired from a long day.
Perhaps my favorite thing I
learned about Abbey is that she is
a frequent reader of my columns.
Nothing makes a writer feel better
than to know their work is being
read. I think there was something in
my eye when she told me how much
she enjoyed them each week. Must
have been some dust from the track.
When Abbey’s duties were all over
for the night, we had a little fun.
While still in her sparkly dress, Abbey joined me on the “scary” kiddie
coaster for a round. I’m only a little disappointed she didn’t put her
hands up and scream a little.
Successful night with the County
Fair Queen? I’d say so. Your turn,
Expo Queen!
By Burdell Hensley
Ahhhhh! Some welcome rain in
the area and it has been a little cooler. I can handle that, but the stifling
heat and humidity is hard on this old
guy. Those conditions make it hard
for me to breathe.
I hope your Fourth of July was a great
one. The Ancient-ess and I spent the
day on the road. At the last minute we
decided to go to Oklahoma to see the
grandkids and two potential grandkids. Rick and Lavonda have taken in
two little foster boys to go with the two
of their own and the three they have
adopted. Both of them are cute little
guys and can melt your heart. They are
thriving in a house with five other kids
that adore them.
The hardest thing about foster parenting is giving them up, if they have to
go back to the parents or grandparents.
Usually you know what they are going
back to and that is gut wrenching.
Rick and Lavonda make perfect foster
parents. They love kids, they have huge
hearts, and they have 10 acres for kids
to run on with a large house. Because
of so many small children, they do not
have carpets and that makes it wall-towall noise in the house.
I was faced with a new challenge
this week. My “Dumb Phone” wore
out. I had been getting these messages that I needed to upgrade, but I
ignored them. Well the phone finally became useless, so I went out and
upgraded to a new “Dumb Phone”. I
have discovered that the new one just
might be dumber than the old one.
Now here is the hot deal. With the
new upgraded phone I qualified for a
tablet for just one dollar. I had always
thought that it might be nice to have
one of those things, but this is no big
deal. I had a tablet in 1946 when I started school with Miss Yulon Campbell in
Lewis Consolidated School. It was call a
“Big Chief” and it cost 10 cents at Vernon Hayes’ Fair Store in Griswold, IA. It
didn’t require electricity or batteries and
it didn’t need a password.
Speaking of passwords, I have so
many that I can’t remember any of
them. I am told to never write your
passwords down anywhere, but I must
write them down or I will never remember them. We have too many passwords
as it is. Before long I will have to have a

Columnist
password just to go to the bathroom. In
country school we had our own passwords for that. It was one finger or two.
The summer tournaments are winding down and as of Monday July 11, Pella Christian is they only girl’s team left
that I have to cover. The Eagles play at
Iowa City Regina Monday night and if
they win they go to the State Tourney in
Fort Dodge. The boy’s tourneys begin
this week and by next week that field
will be thinned out considerably.
Thursday was a busy day for me in
Des Moines. I had a 2 appointment
with my hearing aid guru at Valley
West Mall. At 3:30 Ottumwa was
playing at DM North. So I went over
to watch Chris and Alec play the first
game. They won 11-2 and each boy
had two hits. Then I covered the Knoxville-Hoover Softball Tournament
game at Hoover at 7. Knoxville upset
Hoover 8-3 and moved on.
We had some real tragic things
happen in our community this week.
A family in the New Sharon area lost
a two year old little girl to drowning. I have not gotten a name on that
family yet, but I could be reasonably
sure that I know them.
In Oskaloosa, Scott and Sandy Van
Veldhuizen’s 12 year-old son, Reuben,
passed away due to complications from
a tonsillectomy. I Know Scott and Sandy and my heart aches for them and the
other family as well. There are so many
things we do not understand and only
eternity will be able to explain.
It is time again to see what happened
in our yesterdays.
75 years ago: July 21, 1941- Billie Davis
beat her sister, Virginia, 3-2 to win the
Oskaloosa Ladies City Golf championship. July 21 – The all-Mahaska County
Softball team has been named. Members of the team from Rose Hill are; Art
Wisse, Don Stringfellow, Bob Brokaw,
Bob Renaud and Daryl Reed. Representing Collins Jewelers were; Kenneth
Parlet, Bill Day, Jim McCurdy, Wilbur
Smith and Charles LaRette. The Eagles
were represented by Smoke Burnham,
Kenneth Dunwoody and Forrest Fortney. July 22- Rose Hill beat Fisher Lumber of Centerville 6-4 in the ASA District Softball tourney. Art Wisse tossed
a four-hitter and he slugged a home
run. Junior Hull cracked a triple and
Dwight Lester doubled for the Hillmen.
July 25 – Rose Hill nips Morrell’s of Ottumwa to win the ASA District tourney.
Harlan McClure got the win in relief
while Bob Brokaw’s home run was the
game winning blow.
50 years ago: July 19, 1966 – The Pekin girls were sidelined by Mid-Prairie 10-5. Errors proved costly for the
Panthers. Cheryl Schriener ripped a
triple and a double and Karolyn Greeson belted a triple and a single to lead
Pekin. July 20- Steve Smith slammed
two home runs as Oskaloosa Connie
Mack beat Osky High 7-5. July 20 – A
walk to Terry Burger and singles by
Mike Northup and Jon Holt produced
the winning run in the eighth inning
as Sigourney knocked off league leading BGM 5-4. July 20 – The North
Mahaska girls advance in the sectional with a 14-13 win over BGM. Dolly
Van Benthuysen, Jean Glendening,
Leanne McCulley and Doreen Dunwoody each had three hits for NM.
July 23- English Valleys nipped Belle
Plaine 3-2 behind the pitching of Ed
Sauter. Bob Dillon led the offense
with a double and a single.
25 years ago: July 19, 1991 – Oskaloosa won the South Central Conference
Softball title with a 6-3 win over Davis
County. Julie Blevins pitched the win
and Deanne Fick led the offense with a
double and a single. July 22- Pella Christian downs Twin Cedars 6-2 in sectional softball. Karla Haagsma pitched the
win and she stroked a double and two
singles. Denise Sinclair tripled and Nicole Rozenboom and Teresa Van Zee
each cracked a double. July 22- Eddyville stops North Mahaska 9-7 in sectional play. Brenda Roberts pitched the
win and Jennifer Harter doubled for the
Rockets. Amy Graham, Angela Conover, Paula Flander and Sara Lanphier
each had a single for NM.
Have a great week and let’s try and
bring a little more rain to help pollinate
this corn crop.

This is a weekly feature highlighting some of Iowa’s unsolved homicides in the hopes that it
will lead to new tips and potentially help solve cases. The project is a partnership between this
newspaper and other members of the Iowa Newspaper Association.
HAZEL MARIE REIMANN
Hazel Reimann’s body was found Tuesday,
September 2, 2008, by her sister Helen. Helen
had gone to Hazel’s southeast Watrous Avenue house to check on her sister. There, in the
home’s kitchen, she found a bloody, horrific
crime scene leading to the basement, where
she discovered her sister’s lifeless body in a
pool of blood.
Police said Reimann had been beaten and
stabbed. There were no signs of forced entry, and though a suspect and motive were
unknown, detectives said that Reimann had
put up an extraordinary fight; in addition to
the blood in the kitchen and on the walls, she
had broken six fingers trying to fend off her
attacker.
Officials believed Reimann’s murder occurred the night before her sister found her
body, and though they questioned many
neighbors, couldn’t come up with any solid
leads. Four days later, with no suspects in the
case, Polk County Crime Stoppers offered a
$1,000 reward for information leading to an
arrest.
“Even the smallest details — any observations neighbors may have had on that day, if
they saw people sneaking around the house
or anything like that — is going to be really important for us,” said Des Moines police
Sgt. Vince Valdez. Police remain hopeful that
eventually, someone will come forward with
new information and give them a fresh lead.
HAZEL MARIE REIMANN
| Age: 87 |
Died: Sept. 2, 2008
Location: Des Moines
Find out more about this and other unsolved
homicides at www.IowaColdCases.org.
Anyone with information on Hazel Reimann’s unsolved slaying should
contact the Des Moines Police Department at (515) 283-4864 or Polk
County Crime Stoppers at 515-223-1400.

Additional applicants needed
for Monarch Habitat Project
With the declining number of
Monarch butterflies migrating
north through the central United States, USDA is offering an incentive to agricultural producers
in Iowa to help increase Monarch
breeding habitat.
Iowa agricultural producers who
want to increase habitat for Monarch butterflies on their land now
have opportunities to receive funding for conservation practices that
attract Monarchs. The Monarch
butterfly population has declined in
recent decades, and is currently undergoing a status review for potential federal listing.
Iowa is one of 10 states along the
Monarch’s core migration route
and primary breeding range. As
part of the Monarch Butterfly Hab-
itat Development Project, the effort
is focusing on plantings of milkweed and Monarch nectaring forbs
in wetlands and other marginal
lands. This project is administered
through USDA’s Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS).
“We aren’t asking Iowa farmers to
take land out of crop production,”
said State Biologist James Cronin,
with NRCS in Des Moines. “We are
asking rural landowners to consider odd areas or unproductive areas
– big or small – that would make a
difference to the population.”
USDA is a partner in the Iowa
Monarch Conservation Consortium,
which includes conservation organizations, state agencies, companies
and Iowa State University, who are
working together to research options
to establish and maintain Monarch
breeding habitat best suited for different types of land use scenarios in
the state. “This is an ‘all hands on
deck’ effort to start establishing habitat now,” said Cronin.
A sampling of eligible conservation practices through the project
includes: brush management, conservation cover, field borders, and
prescribed burning. The application
deadline for the Monarch Butterfly
Habitat Development Project is Aug.
5. Visit your local NRCS office to ask
about developing a plan to address
