The views of the columnists in The Southside
Times are their own and do not necessarily reflect
the positions of this newspaper.
Don and Nancy Buxton have boxes full of
cards from students at Greenwood’s Southwest Elementary. While they said it was difficult to do, Don and Nancy read every note
from the children. A few of the messages stick
in their minds and offered some comfort during the most trying time of their lives. One boy
wrote, “Mrs. Longworth, I know that you’ve
been killed. Wherever you are at, I hope you
are enjoying yourself.”
Jennifer and John ‘Dion’ Longworth were
killed two years ago on Nov. 10 in an explosion in the Richmond Hills subdivision, in
Perry Township. On Nov. 10, 2012, Monserrate Shirley and two other men allegedly
filled their home with gas, causing an explosion so they could collect $300,000 in insurance money. The Longworth couple lived next
door. While the trial is pending for June 2015,
the families of the couple have spent the past
two years trying come to grips with what happened, and remembering everything they
loved about Jennifer and Dion.
“My wife and I look back and see we’ve been
married right at 43 years and have never been
through anything like this,” Don said. “This
is totally unbelievable. We’ll wake up in the
morning, we still can’t believe it. You still expect a phone call, something. That first year
we went through in shock, just doing everything. Then you realize this is the way it is and
you have to adjust to the new normal.”
Jennifer was a teacher at Southwest and
Dion worked as director of product development and technology at Indy Audio Labs.
Their parents say not a day goes by that there
isn’t something to remind them of their children.
Election day having recently passed, John
Longworth, Dion’s father, said he remembers,
“In 1984, 6-year-old Dion was working the
Democrat booth at the Randolph County Fair.
His job was to give out Mondale stickers from
a large roll. Not many people were visiting us,
but the Republican booth about 60 feet away
was very busy since they were giving out popcorn. Dion decided to take his business to the
people. He walked down to the Republican
booth and persuaded most people to place a
Mondale sticker on their bag of Republican
popcorn.”
“Dion was intelligent, dedicated, persistent,
and loving,” John continued. “In business dealings, he was honest and successful. From the
day he was born, he was smiling. He grew to
be an even better person than his mother and
I could have imagined.”
John said Dion’s hobby was to work in his
backyard with flowers and other plants, and said she grew more interested in politics, havwould tell everybody about them. He de- ing proudly voiced her opinion prior to the

CITY COUNCIL
Meeting, Nov. 3
n What happened? Old business: Ordinances 18, 22
and 23 were voted on and approved.
n What it means: Ordinance 18 establishes items that will not be
picked up with heavy trash by the department of public works,
including stoves, refrigerators, air conditioners, dehumidifiers,
furnaces and other appliances with run from hazardous gases.
Ordinance 22 was proposed to establish a 20 mile per hour
speed limit in the Carrington and Park Meadow subdivisions. The
ordinance was amended to increase that speed to 25 mph.
Ordinance 23 establishes charges for heavy trash pickup. Fees
will be a minimum of $25 and no more than $500. Residents or
property owners are to agree to the amount prior to pick up, and
that amount will be charged on the next applicable sewer bill.
n What’s next: These ordinances will face third and final readings
at the Dec. 1 city council meeting, 7 p.m.
n What happened? New business: Ordinances 24, 25
and 26 were approved on first reading.
n What it means: Ordinance 24 concerns police department’s
criminal investigation fund, allowing for the clerk/treasurer
to issue a check for undercover investigations such as drug stings.
Ordinance 25 allows the city to “move forward with tax
anticipation,” or to borrow money to have enough cash
on hand to last through the coming year.
Ordinance 26 regards the city asking for appropriations to the
budget, for things such as public safety, the general fund, personal
services, fire/medical supplies, etc. for a total of $517,000.
n What’s next: Ordinances 24 and 25 will undergo a second
reading at the Dec. 1 meeting. Ordinance 26 will undergo second
and third readings due to financial deadlines.
n What happened? The 2015 redevelopment commission budget
was approved.
n What it means: By new legislation, the RDC must submit an
annual budget to its city council. RDC President Dan Webb said the
budget got complicated recently with funding that was expected
to come from the St. Francis property now not being paid. “Really,
I think we had a pretty good year,” Webb said. “There are a lot of
positives going on.”
n What’s next: The RDC has a working budget on which to
base spending in 2015.
n What happened? Resolution 10-2014 was proposed
and tabled pending further research.
n What it means: This regarded the Beech Grove Police
Department and partnerships with entities such as the DEA, which
often pays overtime for officers. The resolution stated the money
was going into the incorrect account and should go to the police
department. Clerk/treasurer Dan McMillian said the funds are
currently going into the general fund, which is where they belong.
n What’s next: The resolution will be reintroduced
at the Dec. 1 meeting.

Here’s to you,
Our humble heroes
As the election dust continues to settle in
our communities and across the nation, let’s
not forget to take time to recognize our brave
men and women who have fought and served
in the name of our great nation.
Regardless of your politics or which side of
the aisle you find yourself on, there’s no arguing the commitment of our veterans who have
sacrificed so much to serve our freedom.
This Veterans Day, Nov. 11, we challenge
ourselves and our readers to show our sincere
thanks and gratitude to the veterans of our
armed forces. Whether they have served in the
Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, National Guard or Navy, we give thanks. Whether
you served in World War II, Korea, Vietnam,
Iraq, Afghanistan, or elsewhere around the

globe, we give thanks.
We think U.S. President Woodrow Wilson
said it best when he proclaimed the first Armistice Day in 1919:
“To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the
heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both
because of the thing from which it has freed
us and because of the opportunity it has given
America to show her sympathy with peace and
justice in the councils of the nations.”
Thanks for all that you have given, veterans
– your strength gives us strength.
Be safe and be well, veterans of the Southside and everywhere.
BELIEVE IT!
Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share
one with you.…

Will the GOP fumble
yet another opportunity?
There are many who are still excited after Tuesday night’s election results were announced. Yes, the Republicans will take control of the Senate and got a hold of even more
house seats. There were also several key gubernatorial races throughout the country the
GOP won as well – even in Illinois – now
that’s a sign of the apocalypse. Good for Republicans. But will this be good for us? Conservatives will argue that anything is better
than what we have in place – perhaps. We
tend to believe that the Republicans have had
many opportunities in the past while enjoying a majority role in Congress and have failed
miserably. We hope Tuesday night’s mandate
means something, but we are not holding our
breaths.
………………
If you were watching returns on TV election night, the line of the evening was made
by Fox News’ Megyn Kelly, when after Iowa
Democrats – gathered at a victory reception
– realized they lost the Senate seat to Republican Joni Ernst, she said they were leaving and
“relocating to the cash bar.” We wonder who
bought their drinks.

claims superintendent, handling car accident
claims at a regional office in Indianapolis. He
said his military experience earned him a job
as an investigator into insurance adjustors
who were misappropriating money. He would
investigate claims all over Indiana, Illinois and
Michigan, “cleaning up the whole thing.”
Nix and Viola, now deceased, had four children. He said his family has always remained
of upmost importance to him.
“Both my daughters were drum corps majors in the Greenwood band and I was more
proud of that than anything I did,” Nix said.
Through his time living in Greenwood, Nix
spent 18 years serving on the
parks board, 10 years on
the state parks board
and 10 years on the
planning
commission. He was instrumental in the
creation of the community center and
the
amphitheater,
which he said earned him a lifetime achievement award from the state parks board.
In October, Nix was selected to take part in
an Indy Honor Flight, visiting the war memorials in Washington, D.C.
“It meant a lot to me,” Nix said. “I was a little apprehensive because I had been to D.C.,
worked at the Pentagon, but that was before
they built all those monuments. They talked
me into going. I was very pleased, especially
with the Korean one, because I was entitled to
a Korean Theatre Ribbon.”
Nix, 91, said he’s proud of everything he’s
done, and will often talk about it, whether
that’s at St. John's where he attends church or
at the Greenwood Rotary club where he is a
member.
“God’s been so good to me,” Nix said. “I’ve
taught the Bible for so long. I’ve been to the
Holy Land and was baptized in the Jordan
River. That’s important to me. I don’t
know how I could account for everything. For a graduate to go from
a Gary steel mill to have all these
blessings in my life, I’m just thankful.”

Perry Township’s Francis Howery always knew he’d enter the Air Force and serve for his freedoms
Francis Howery said serving in the military
was something he always knew he wanted to
do – the Air Force in particular. He said it gave
him the opportunity to travel all over the Pacific: Japan, Tokyo, Korea, Guam, Okinawa,
Philippines, “you name it.”
“I always knew I’d go into the Air Force,”
Howery said. “I felt I owed the country. I felt I
wanted to pay them back. I don’t want to make
myself a hero. I wasn’t.”
Howery grew up in Indianapolis and joined
the Air Force at age 19. He wanted to fly the
airplanes, but ended up flying as a crew member as a flight engineer. He went through 18
months of schooling, then was sent to California to be certified.
“Then they sent me to Hawaii,” Howery
said. “I loved Hawaii. I’d go back tomorrow if
they’d send me. It was beautiful over there.”
Howery has received numerous medals and
honors for things he has done during his time
of service, including a purple heart after taking shrapnel to the arm and leg and a bronze
star for his act of bravery during one incident
while flying over Vietnam.
“We had two turning, two burning. (two
engines out, two running),” Howery said. “We
were carrying wounded. There were eight of
us. I pushed the copilot’s body, he was killed,
pushed him back and I landed the airplane.
The pilot had shown me what to do before.
That’s all I know. I couldn’t tell you to this day
how I got the airplane on the ground. Lucky,
I guess.”
Howery served from 1953 to 1965, with
multiple tours overseas. He participated in
many Black Ops missions, and said he remembers how quiet the plane was that he flew
in. He had good friends who were killed in the
combat. Through the hard times, he said
they still managed to make some good
memories.
“Our pet was a full-grown tiger,”
Howery said. “You know where he
slept? Anywhere he wanted to. But,
he was a pet, it (belonged to) a Special Forces guy. He wasn’t mean.
Boy, he loved his beer… We had
two Navy guys come in one night in
Saigon. It was raining so hard they
couldn’t see their carrier
so they had to land on our base. We picked
them up. We had a jumbo pick-up truck. They
opened the door and there’s Tuffy (the tiger)
in the back seat. They closed the door real
quick. He was something else. We’d wrestle
with him and everything. We had a
basketball and we’d throw it and
he’d catch it like a dog. He’d
carry that durn basketball
around. I’m sure most of the
guys in Saigon knew Tuffy.
We’d take him into the city
once in a while.”
When Howery returned
home, he went back into law
enforcement. He said
he went to work
Francis Howery
with the Hilton Corporation, the Hilton Hotels downtown, as a house detective. He said
that was a fun time, and he had the opportunity to meet many prominent people including Elvis Presley, Presidents Reagan, Bush Sr.
and Ford. Howery met his wife, Marty, after
he got out of the service, and said he has the
“greatest wife.”

The Science of Ghost
Hunting… Conclusion
"James Patterson's
Now You See Her.
It is the best book.
Once you start it you
won't put it down.
You think you know
what is going to happen and then it flips
around and you never
know what is going
to happen until the very end. Also, I liked
Mariah Stewart's Mercy Street and Acts of
Mercy."
Stephanie Young,
works in Beech Grove
"My favorite recent
read was The Music Lesson by Victor
Wooten. It is a work
of fiction but it is instructional in itself. It
describes many facets
of music. It improved
my own musicianship and appreciation
for music. Another work of fiction I liked
was Einstein's Dreams by Alan Lightman, a
very insightful book."
Michael Hafley
of Perry Township
"Captive Audience:
The Telecom Industry
and Monopoly Power
by Susan P. Crawford.
It is about the cable
companies' strategy of
parsing out sections
of the country to their
advantage so that
they can fix prices. It
is very well digested by the author. Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury. It is not science fiction. It is prose poetry. A Day No
Pigs Would Die by Robert Newton Peck
and Ox-Cart Man by Donald Hall."
"I have been reading a
lot of family-oriented
books. Right now I
am reading Maggie
Shayne. She writes a
lot of books that deal
with family and some
of the stuff they go
through on a daily
basis, and some of the
drama they go through. Debbie McCumber is always a good one. I really like her
Cedar Cove series and Midnight Sons series. Robyn Carr is another one. She writes
a lot about a town called Virgin Rivers and
the people who live there. Some of them
are quirky, some of them are really serious. Nora Roberts has such a good array
of books from the paranormal, the
futuristic, the witches, a lot of drama,
contemporary, suspense."

HAUNTS & JAUNTS
Metal theft has increased dramatically in Marion County during the past few years, rising from an average of
seven incidents per day in 2008 to approximately 11
per day in the 2011-2013 period, according to a new
study from the University of Indianapolis. Catalytic
converter thefts have nearly doubled, appliances are
increasingly popular targets, and the crimes seem to
be concentrated in specific areas of the city, the study
found. Although the exact cost is difficult to measure, the estimated total loss was more than $16 million over the two-year study period, averaging about
$690,000 per month, or more than $8 million per year.

Perry Meridian grad encourages
college students to dance for charity
FEATURE
By Nicole Davis
Freshman IUPUI student and Perry Meridian High School graduate, Jacob Harris,
recently began what he said he hopes to be a
widespread challenge for a good cause. The
goal of #collegeshakeoff is to challenge three
colleges to a "Shake Off," or dance off, while
also raising awareness for a charity of their
choice.
“I really just did this out of pure fun,” Harris said. “It wasn’t for a club or school or anything. I saw a video online of people dancing to the song. The idea popped in my head.
I wanted to make a dancing video. I knew I
could help people with it.”
To film the video, Harris and his roommate put up signs, asking people to dance. He
edited the footage and posted it at youtube.
com/watch?v=u9pbT6gYzSo. As of the end of
October, Harris said the video for IUPUI had
3,000 views. Wabash College has also participated, with 2,500 views. He said DePauw is in
the process of creating a video. The purpose of
Harris’ video is to raise awareness for suicide
and ways to get help.
“There are so many causes out there,” Harris
said. “We can spread awareness of more than
just one cause. It can open people’s eyes to the
problems out there and ways to help.”
DISPATCH
n NAME BRANDS VS. STORE BRANDS
It’s no secret that store-brand products generally save consumers on their trips
to the grocery, but at what cost? Tod Marks, senior editor at Consumer Reports,
found that numerous store-brand products were actually higher-quality
than their leading name-brand counterparts. “Over the years we’ve
seen a steady increase in that quality perception [of store brands].
Most people, in fact, think that store brands are as at least as
good as national brands, says Marks. – Yahoo Finance

City of Beech Grove Public Safety Plan
from 2015 through 2017
As a result of the Local Option Income Tax passed ty the Indianapolis City County Council, the cities of Beech
Grove, Lawrence, Southport and town of Speedway will receive additional revenue. The city of Beech Grove
held a meeting on Oct. 30 to inform as to how this would be used. “When I was Fire Chief and when I became
Mayor, my priority was and still is the personal safety of each citizen in our city, and that hasn’t changed,”
Mayor Buckley said. “This administration will take great pride in increasing our capabilities to provide
public safety services and over the next couple of years we will be able to make a marked improvement
in the delivery of vital services to you. Beginning in 2015, the city will purchase another fire engine, invest
$100,000.00 for new computers for police vehicles, lease/purchase four police cruisers, install electronic
gates at the Department of Public Works so fueling of vehicles can be done in a secure environment and
more. Read Mayor Buckley’s speech at beechgrove.com.

Mascari Cleaners launches odorless
cleaning, alteration services
By Brian Ruckle
Indianapolis area residents have trusted
their suits, dresses and coats to the Mascari
family's dry cleaning businesses for 67 years.
Mike Mascari, second generation owner of
the family business Mascari Cleaners, said
the Wanamaker branch recently expanded its
floor space, invested in new equipment and
introduced new services to bring more value
to their customers in the Southside.
Mascari Cleaners at 8845 Southeastern Ave.
expanded this summer into the space previously occupied by Sports 'n Moore allowing
for more room for new equipment and services. Mascari said that he recently invested in
new hydrocarbon cleaning technology, a cutting edge dry cleaning process that eliminates
the dry cleaning odor and is eco-friendly.
"We've expanded our cleaners and now we
are changing the way we do cleaning," said
Mascari.
Mascari said the new odorless dry cleaning method will be a noticeable improvement
for customers who bring their clothes to be
cleaned at the Wanamaker branch.
“It is working out great,” said Angie Rowe-
camp, manager of the Wanamaker facility and
Mascari’s daughter. “They say they have no
odor in their clothes. We have less wrinkles,
less lint and it is a quicker procedure for us.”
Also, Mascari introduced a new alternations shop with Master Tailor Julie Jewels
available between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. during
the week.
“I put in zippers, repair any kind of holes,
hem drapes, hem pants, sleeves, do patches
for girl scout or boy scout patches, policemen
uniforms, work uniforms and much more,”
said Jewels.
Gus and Ruth Mascari started the family
dry-cleaning business on East Street in Indianapolis in 1947. Mike, their oldest son of eight
children, said he learned the family business
as a teenager. In March 1970 he opened Mascari Cleaners at 8911 Southeastern Ave. In
2000, he purchased and moved into a former
hardware store at his current location at 8845
Southeastern Ave.
"Wanamaker has been good to me the 44
years I have been in Franklin Township," said
Mascari.

Franklin Township students receive new dictionaries
Thanks to the Franklin Township Lion’s Club, every third grade student attending an Franklin Township
Community School Corporation school received a dictionary this fall. The Lion’s Club is actively involved in
FTCSC by volunteering, supporting our Fast Track (back to school supply day), providing dictionaries and
distributing flags to the students. Students and Lion's Club members pictured are from Adams Elementary
School.
Sugar Grove Elementary second grade teachers
conducted a Football Fluency Camp to get students
refocused on school after the two-week fall break
this year. Teacher Terri Gomez says she and the other
second grade teachers noticed some of the students
"fell a little behind" after Spring Break last year. “So,
we decided to have a Baseball Fluency Camp,” she
said. “We took the first day back and used our 4
classrooms as four literacy stations. The kids traveled
and did divergent activities in each classroom. It was
intensive, yet fun!” Gomez says the camp helped the
students get excited to be back at school and delve
back into reading. This year, the teachers conducted a
similar camp themed around football after fall break.
“The Football Fluency Camp was a huge success,” said
Gomez. “All of the students improved their reading
fluency and did not "fall back"! I think they now
look at all of the second grade teachers as their own
teachers too!” The teachers plan a Basketball Fluency
Camp after the winter break and the Baseball Fluency
Camp after spring break.
FTCSC awarded Energy Star awards
In 1992, the U.S. Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) created the ENERGY STAR program designed
to identify and promote energy-efficiency. ENERGY STAR has been the driving force behind the widespread
use of such technological innovations as efficient fluorescent lighting, power management systems and
low standby energy use. Seven thousand and eight hundred public and private buildings participate in
this competitive recognition. In order to be recognized with the ENERGY STAR award, a building must be
75 percent more efficient than any other building looking for recognition. FTCSC’s ENERGY STAR program,
under the direction of Mr. Jody Melady, was recognized with seven awards this year.
Congratulations to Mr. Melady and the following: Adams Elementary – Ms. Karen Schuldt, principal;
Arlington Elementary – Mrs. Melissa Morris, principal; Bunker Hill Elementary – Mrs. Wessel Burke, principal;
South Creek Elementary – Mrs. Toni Stevenson, principal; Thompson Crossing Elementary – Mr. Jeff Murphy;

Rhonda Jones-Jointer is a resource
for Perry school staff
For The Southside Times
Mrs. Rhonda Jones-Jointer is a member of
the administrative leadership team in Perry
Township Schools, serving as the Director of
Human Resources. She oversees the recruitment and retention of all staff members in the
district. Her responsibilities also include staff
compensation, benefits, FMLA, unemployment claims, drafting policies/procedures,
staff handbooks, orientations, training, retiree recognition and more!
“I was born in Gary, Ind., the younger
of two, and graduated from Andrean High
School. I have a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Secondary Education and J.D. degree.
My work experience comes from both the private and public sectors.
I never know what the day will bring. I’m
visible in the district as I often visit staff members in their schools. Once I was a guest
teacher for a high school class, teaching about
the best practices for resume writing and preparing for job interviews.
My loyal and dedicated team consists of
Lois Bertram, Jenny Dant and Drue Smith.
They work with me, not for me. Together, we
are very knowledgeable of the school district
and how the different departments intertwine.
We are customer service-driven and treat everyone with dignity and respect.
I challenge my staff with ‘projects.’ This has
resulted in HR being on the leading edge with
on-line benefit enrollment, document imaging of personnel files, updated application
process and standard operating procedures
for our clerical staff. At times, I do make unpopular decisions but I must be fair, consistent and neutral to protect Perry Township
Schools.
Outside of work, my husband, Tyree Jointer,
and I enjoy entertaining in our home. We have
been married for 20 years. I also take pleasure
in reading, playing the piano/organ, singing
in the Mass Choir at Eastern Star Church,
participating in hip/hop, Zumba and cardiac
kickboxing classes and attending luncheons/
jazz brunches with community organizations.
I love Human Resources and want my department to serve as a resource for all staff
members. My goal is to make Perry Township
Schools the employer of choice!”

Southport Lions Club fundraise for five
defibrillators for Southport PD
Southport Lions Club is raising money for five defibrillators for the Southport Police Department. Club
members held a fundraiser on Oct. 26, raising enough money for four defibrillators. The money was earned
not only by sales of a spaghetti dinner; additional donations included a $2,400 from Voiture 145 of the 40

“Our goal last December was to buy one,” said AJ Johnson, of the Southport Lions Club. “Bob Roe suggested
five – one for every patrol car and one for the shelter house. As of Sunday, we have enough for four. These
are the type of devices that will change the quality of life for someone in Southport. Police Officers arrive
on the scene before EMTs. In the case of cardiac arrest, seconds count. We’re happy to help the citizens of
Southport and hope that no one in the city needs these soon.”

Where can wisdom be found?
DEVOTIONAL
By Paul Kirby
"But where shall wisdom be found? and where
is the place of understanding? Man knoweth
not the price thereof; neither is it found in the
land of the living. The depth saith, It is not in
me: and the sea saith, It is not with me. It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be
weighed for the price thereof." ~ Job 28:12-15
Just where can wisdom be found today?
We run elections, choose leadership in our
churches, we watch as the business community selects who will oversee the businesses that
provide our daily needs. Wisdom is a commodity that is for sale. Everywhere and in almost every set of circumstances, we are seeking people of wisdom to lead us through the
difficult and the good times.
So, the question is asked today as it was back
in Job's day, "Where can wisdom be found?"
The price of that wisdom is more valuable
than silver and gold. It cannot be found by
looking to the depths of the deepest of waters
or the heights of the farthest reaches of our
universe. Remember now, we are speaking
of wisdom and not knowledge. Knowledge
can be taught but wisdom is a gift from God.
Many a student has passed through their local schools without one failing grade on their
report cards. Many of these have gone on to a
college or university and learned well a way to
leave those institutions and to put their knowledge to work. But, for all of their learning and
gaining of knowledge, many do not succeed
because they do not have the wisdom to put
that knowledge to work in an area where the
general public will pay them for it. Getting a
college or university degree does not guarantee anyone a successful life. It takes wisdom
to succeed.
When it comes to the religious communities and more specifically the Christian faith,
how many have the wisdom to use their faith
to win others to Christ? Without the wisdom
to use their faith nearly every effort to win
others to Christ will result in failure. When
there is only failure then other drastic measures are taken to build up their "church" such
as turning them into entertainment or sports
centers. Christ said that we must be as wise as
serpents but as harmless as doves. This means
that we need to know the time and the place
and the right person to share our faith with so
that the best results come of it.
As we seek to win the lost to Christ, may
God bless us with the wisdom to know the difference between the right person at just the
right time to have the best results. God bless
us all with that wisdom.
Paul A. Kirby is the pastor at the Church of God
at 3939 S. Emerson Ave.
Nativity 5th graders create a literary pumpkin patch
Combining the joy of reading and Halloween resulted in a project for Nativity Catholic School’s 5th
graders. Students were asked by teacher, Katie Jones, to decorate a pumpkin based on a favorite
literary character. Harry Potter, the Cat in the Hat, the Rainbow Fish and Snoopy were just some of the
designs made by the class. Pictured, Aidan Leffer’s “Rainbow Fish” pumpkin was inspired by the book
written by Marcus Pfister.
