Perrysburg Township trustees
Bob Shank, Keith Custer celebrate combined 90 years with Witzler-Shank issue ultimatum to Heights Association
Two different generations–lifelong careers with funeral home
By Deb Buker
Fifty years ago–August
1, 1964–Robert (Bob) and
Clara Shank became the
new owners of Witzler
Funeral Home.
“We closed on the sale,
and then Earl Witzler, his
mother Marcena, and Clara
and I drove to Bowling
Green and filed all the
paperwork. That was a Saturday and the courthouse
was open until noon,”
recalled Mr. Shank, a
licensed funeral director and
embalmer. “On the way
back, we stopped at the
Everglades on Route 25 and
had lunch. And that was the
beginning. I don’t know
where 50 years went.”
The Shank family
moved into the upstairs
apartment of the funeral
home, then located at 128
East Front Street, over
Labor Day weekend.
“The Witzler family was
very, very important to
us–they were such a big
help,” added the funeral
home owner. “I could not
have had the business if it
hadn’t been for them–particularly Earl and his mother.
They were very, very good
to our family.”
When Mr. Shank took
ownership, Lloyd Mandell
and Buddy Bell worked
part-time at the funeral
home.
“I always kidded that
Buddy and Lloyd inherited
me,” he said. “My family
lived upstairs; we ran the
funeral home along with the
ambulance business.”
Over the following 10
years, the business grew, a
new funeral home was built
at its current location, 222
East South Boundary and it
was time to increase the
staff.
“It was in 1974, late
spring, and I talked to a state
board inspector and told him
I needed to look for some
help,” said Mr. Shank.
“Keith [Custer] was in
Alliance, Ohio, and had
about three months left on
his apprenticeship–21 years
old, fresh out of school.”
The young licensed
funeral
director
and
embalmer had five interviews in Ohio but accepted
the position in Perrysburg.
Mr. Custer and his wife
Sandy moved into the apartment upstairs of the new
funeral home and lived there
for five years.
“The only question in my
interview that Bob gave me
and that I remember is if I
would commit to him for 10
years,” recalled Mr. Custer.
“He wanted a commitment
for 10 years and 40 years
later, I am still here.”
Both funeral directors
believe the profession is a
calling, “like a calling to
a ministry,” said Mr.
Custer, who originally
began college as a music
education major.
“I needed a summer job
between my sophomore and
junior year in college and
my dad, who was in the
funeral business for 50
years, got me a job in the
funeral home where he
worked. I mowed the grass,
worked visitation and did
odd jobs and I was fascinated by it,” he said. “So the
next fall, I went to mortuary
school. My parents could
not believe it.”
However, Mr. Shank did
not come from a family
funeral business.
“My mother said I got
interested in the funeral
business when my grandmother died,” he remembered, agreeing that it is a
calling.
The funeral directors
explained that when they
were licensed it required
two years of college, 12
months of mortuary school
and a 12-month internship.
The individual then took a
state board test for licensure.
“In Ohio you can have an
embalmer’s license and a
funeral director’s license–
you can have one or both,”
explained Mr. Custer. “Now
you have to have a bachelor’s degree in the State of
Ohio to be a licensed funeral
director.”
Mr. Shank noted that Mr.
Custer came to Perrysburg
extremely well trained in
embalming and restorative
art–“all the back things. He
worked with his dad for his
internship, and his dad did a
super job training him,” he
added. “Keith is probably
one of the top–no more than
three–top embalmers that I
have known in my life. He
is one of the best.”
The two reminisced
about running the ambulance service until 1976
when the government
imposed new restrictions on
transport.
“We drove the ambulances, we did everything. I
even delivered babies,” said
Mr. Shank. “In 1976, the
government said you had to
have the big boxes with all
the equipment and a lot
more training than what we
had, so we were totally out
of the ambulance business
then.
“Our community was
very fortunate because in the
city and township all of the
police cars had oxygen,
resuscitators in the trunk.
They were all alike, and we
had the same thing and you
could switch equipment
back and forth.”
The funeral home paid
volunteers $5 to $10 per run
and ambulance service from
$15 to $35 for transport to a
hospital.
“I would be working here
doing ambulance calls and
would call in one of the
farmers who volunteered.

In the wake of alleged
financial mismanagement
and other issues surrounding
the Perrysburg Heights
Community Association’s
Mexican-American and Hip
Hop Festival last month, the
Perrysburg
Township
trustees issued an ultimatum,
notifying the association of
its plan to “terminate the
lease agreement.”
At the September 10
afternoon meeting, the
trustees emerged from executive session and voted
unanimously to notify the
Heights association of lease
violations at the facility.
The township does not
own the community center,
but the property on which
the center sits is township
land.
In a September 11 letter
to Jesse Spier, the association’s president, the trustees
allege that the organization

The career center also
hired two instructors for its
satellite programs. Stephen

at Springfield High School;
Stephanie Conway will
teach agriculture at Bowling
Green High School, and
association 30 days to correct issues with maintenance
and provide documentation
that the center is being used
for public purposes or face
eviction.
“The township invites the
Perrysburg Heights Community Association to remedy
the aforementioned violations. The township’s goal is
to remain a stakeholder in a
viable public purpose facility consistent with the original intentions for the community center,” they concluded.
In a telephone interview
last week, Trustee Bob Mack
said the association has been
“on the trustees’ radar” for
sometime.
In addition to owning the
land, the township has a
vested interest in the center,
and since its inception in the
1990s, boards of trustees
have made financial contri-
butions totalling more than
$100,000 in support of the
facility and its programming.
Most recently, the township authorized the expenditure of $5,000 which was to
be used for a Little Jackets
academic camp to help
struggling elementary school
children.
State Senator Randy
Gardner, who spoke at the
trustees meeting, also is
interested in the issue.
He pointed out that in
2004, the state legislature
authorized an expenditure of
$500,000 to help support
expansion of the center and
its programs.
Sen. Gardner offered his
assistance as a state legislator to “get answers as soon
as possible.”
This is not the first time
controversy has surrounded
the association.
Penta students host Patriot Day ceremony
Two different generations are celebrating lifelong careers.
Seated, Bob Shank purchased the Witzler Funeral Home on August 1, 1964–50
years ago. Mr. Shank, who recently turned 80, continues to conduct funeral services.
Keith Custer, began his career at Witzler-Shank 40 years ago at the age of 21.

lease agreement.
“Paragraph 6[a] requires
that the association maintain
the grounds and buildings,”
they wrote, and attached
recent photographs which
they say “demonstrate the
lack of maintenance of the
premises.”
The trustees also believe
the association violated
paragraph 6[b], which
requires the organization to
use the premises for public
purposes.
“It is our understanding
that the premises are being
rented to third parties for
activities which do not consistently benefit the general
public. Also, due to the association’s failure to provide
documentation as to overall
usage, the township is
unable to determine the level
of usage.”

tracts run June 30, 2015.
FY 2015 Appropriations
The
school
board
approved appropriations of
$27.7 million for fiscal year
2015, which began on July
1. That amount is up slightly
from last year.
Revenues for the year are
projected to be $26.47 million.
Treasurer Carrie Herringshaw said the Wood County
auditor expects tax revenues
to be “about the same as last
year.”
She also believes state
foundation funds will remain
the same as last year, but
cautioned that state revenue
could change depending on
enrollment, how programs
are weighted and other factors. “There are some
unknowns,” she added.
Ms. Herringshaw noted
that as a result of contract
negotiations, employees will
see a 2 percent salary
increase.
As part of the agreement,
employees also agreed to
pay more for health insurance.
In conclusion, the trea-
surer said she plans to have
the five-year budget forecast
available for the board’s
review in October.
Other Business
In other business, the
board:
•Agreed to apply as a
pilot district for participation
in the MUNIS accounting/
payroll software program.
Mrs. Herringshaw said
the new software will be
much more efficient, noting
that currently, the district
uses an “antiquated” system
first established in the 1980s
that is not web-based or
user-friendly.
She acknowledged that
the cost to implement the
system, which is used by
districts throughout Kentucky, will be approximately
$46,000, but said the “efficiencies would be well
worth the investment.”
She believes it will save
time and money, adding that
they currently use a lot of
software.
“I think it’s really exciting and something that
would be great for Penta. I’d
memorial service.
“When I think of September 11, 2001, I think of
the song that Alan Jackson
wrote about that day,
‘Where Were You,’” he
said. “I was 4, in
preschool and don’t
remember anything that
happened.”
As he grew older, he
began to understand the
significance of that day.
“Three years ago, I went
to Ground Zero, the 9/11
Memorial in New York.
That moment changed my
whole perspective about
everything that happened
on that day.”
The senior recognized
the law enforcement, firefighters and paramedics
who responded to the airplane crashes at the World
Trade Center in New York
City as well as a field in
Shanksville, Pennsylvania
and the Pentagon in Washington D.C.
In New York that day,
the fire department lost
343 firefighter/EMTs; the
police department suffered
the loss of life to 23 officers, and 37 officers from
the port authority died.
“Those people will
never be forgotten and are
thought about every day,”
said Ross.
“Due to the brave,
courageous and outstanding acts of all the heroes,
Americans across our
country now remember,
honor and pay tribute to
our fallen heroes and the
2,980 innocent victims of
the September 11 attacks,”
he concluded.
Following his remarks,
members of the color
guard–Mike Swanson of
Springfield Schools, Alexis Ross of Lake, Abe
Reyes of Eastwood and
Christina Yeakle of Northwood– raised the American flag and lowered it to
half staff in remembrance.
The playing of “Taps”
was followed by a moment
of silence to commemorate
those who lost their lives
on that fateful day.
Assistant

Gilmore recalled where he
was that morning when the
news broke about the first

Drug Take Back Program
Saturday, September 27, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Perrysburg Police Division
330 Walnut Street
On Saturday, September 27, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Perrysburg Police Division and the Drug
Enforcement Administration will give the public another opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs.
Community members can bring medications for disposal to Perrysburg Police Division, 330 Walnut
Street. The service is free and anonymous–no questions asked.
This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home
cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the
U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs.
Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including
from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for
disposing of unused medicines–flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash–both pose
potential safety and health hazards.

Bob Shank, Keith Custer celebrate combined 90 years with Witzler-Shank
➧Continued from page 1
They would have to get here,
and then I would have to
have someone cover visitations, so I could get the ambulance and go,” said Mr.
Custer. “We had 36 miles of
the turnpike. Sometimes it
took us 45 minutes to get
there–by the time you got
the volunteers here and got
the ambulance and drive all
that way–it took us forever
to get to some places, especially in bad weather. I don’t
know how we did it.”
And then there was the
Blizzard of ‘78.
“I was 25 years old and
Bob left town on Thursday
for a funeral directors’ conference in Akron,” recalled
Mr. Custer. “The blizzard hit
and by the time they were
able to get home on Sunday
night, I had 10 bodies in the
prep room. We had power
off for two days, and we
were cooking spaghetti on
the fireplace to eat. We had
homes we could not get to.
The National Guard could
not help us, and we ended up
going in pickup trucks with
cots in the back.”
Mr. Shank said the funeral home was serving 13
families throughout that
winter storm and it took approximately three weeks for
all the burials.
“You do what you have
to do to make things work,”
he added. “Sometimes it is
difficult, but it makes you
feel better knowing you did
everything you could do.”
Working together for 40
years, the funeral directors
are in sync with one another.
“We’ve worked together
to a point that we can look at
each other at a funeral, and
we know what the other one
is thinking,” said the older of
the two. “You don’t find
many situations like that.”
One of the biggest
changes over the years is
women employed in the funeral business.
“There is no generational
pattern any more where families are taking over the business,” Mr. Custer added.
“Sixty to 70 percent of students in mortuary school are
women or second careers.”
He also noted that
salaries have not kept up
with the need, and it is a
tremendous commitment–
24 hours/365 days a year.
“When Keith and I
worked alone, one or the
other of us had to be here,”
said Mr. Shank. “For Christmas holiday, Keith would go
home on Christmas Eve and
come back for us to go to
church. Then I would take
half of Christmas day and
Keith would take the other
half. We ate early, Keith’s
family ate late. We did that
for years. If you get busy,
you work.”
The traditional funeral
has become more personalwith the technology available today, the directors
said.
“And with the amount of
cremation instead of the traditional burial, it has made a
difference in the services we
are having. Approximately
50 percent of our families
choose cremation,” said Mr.
Custer. “When I came 40
years ago, we had one cremation a year, maybe two. It
is just a change in attitude.”
All funeral services are
difficult, however a funeral
service for a child is most
difficult for the directors.
“Kids–that is hard. If that
History of Witzler-Shank Funeral Home
As a historic business in a historic town, Witzler-Shank Funeral Home celebrated its
150th anniversary in 2009, serving Perrysburg and the surrounding communities. The
rich history of the business began in 1859, when Peter Witzler moved to Perrysburg with
his new bride, Margaret. He formed a wood-working shop on the hydraulic canal at the
foot of Mulberry Street. He brought power from the town to run his lathe and other machinery. An advertisement was discovered by the Perrysburg Journal, the town’s newspaper, for furniture and chairs, as well as coffins—”a narrow house of the dead”—and a
hearse at reasonable charges. This began the Witzler family’s commitment to funeral
service.
Thirty-three years later, in 1892, Mr. and Mrs. Witzler’s son, Charles, founded a furniture and undertaking business at 116 Louisiana Avenue in downtown Perrysburg.
When Charles died shortly after opening the business, his brother Alfred (A.J.) took it
over and continued at that location for 40 years. In 1930 A.J. purchased the Hoover
House at 128 East Front Street, which was built in 1875, and converted it into a funeral
home for the community.
A.J.’s son, Norm, along with Norm’s wife, Marcena, and their son, Earl, began to operate the funeral home as a separate and independent business. A.J. died in 1934, having never conducted a funeral at the new location. In 1947 the Witzlers and their six
children moved to 240 East Front Street. Norm continued to run the business until his
death in August 1964.
The business was purchased shortly after by Clara and Bob Shank. The Shank family lived upstairs in the funeral home until 1973, when they built the existing funeral home
at 222 East South Boundary.
is all there was, we would
both be out of it,” said Mr.
Shank. “You have to step
back and adjust your mind to
the fact that you need to do
the best you can in helping
this particular family and for
every family this is true.
“Now if you get into one
where there are a lot of emotions that are being dealt
with, even us personally,
you get through it all and
when you are done with the
service, it is like you have
been through a wringer. You
have to maintain your
poise–not that you can’t be
human because we are–and I
believe that has made us better funeral directors.”
The two also credit their
wives for their commitment
and success of their careers.
“If you don’t have the
support of your wife, this is
the wrong business. You
may have to get up from the
dinner table and leave be-
cause you have to go out on
a call, the extra hours and
the time,” said Mr. Shank.
“We have both been very
fortunate that our wives
were and continue to be
helpful and cooperative.”
Mr. Custer noted that the
two families took care of
each other, and he even attended every soccer game
and football game.
“We were always able to
raise our families,” he said.
“I would work late or trade
time and Bob was the same.”
The funeral directors
have cared for third and
fourth generation area families and made long-lasting
friendships.
“We have made great
friendships and we see the
same families over and
over,” said Mr. Custer. “We
build great relationships
with people–they trust us.”
Both said that looking
back over the years, they
would not change one day of
it.
“If I would do it all over
again, I would not change
one thing that I have done,”
said Mr. Custer. “It is everything I could have ever
imagined for me. There has
never been a reason to do
anything different. Meeting
people, the friendships you
make and the support that
you have from the people
you work with–there is no
reason ever to change it.”
Mr. Shank echoed those
words.
“That is for both of us–I
would not change one day.
And at the end of the
day–thank you, Perrysburg.
Thank you for your trust and
your continued support.
“To sum up my 50 years,
I will quote Louie Armstrong, ‘It’s a wonderful
world.’
“And I again, thank you
Perrysburg.”
Perrysburg Township trustees issue ultimatum
Last year, several complaints were filed with the
Ohio Attorney General’s Office, alleging that Mr. Spier
rented the center for his own
business and other members
rented the center for profit.
There also were allegations of gift cards donated to
the association being sold on
an Internet auction site.
Additional
complaints
were filed recently following
the botched festival. The
complaints allege that Jason
Craig, Heights association
treasurer, hired a known felon
to fraudulently advertise the
hip hop acts and also accuse
Mr. Craig of theft and misuse
of funds.
Penta Area Roads
Also at the trustees meeting, John Lebold, of Oak
Haven Drive, asked when
work would be done to improve Bates, Buck and Lime
City roads.
“They’re terrible maintenance wise. They’re really
bad,” he said.
He pointed out that Penta

prominence in the community and state.
“Those roads should be
fixed not for me, but for that
school,” he added.
Trustee Gary Britten said
the trustees are attempting to
secure State Issue 1 money to
repair Bates Road. “If we get
the grant, the work will be
done in 2015,” he added.
With regard to Buck Road,
he noted that it has taken a
long time for all parties involved to decide on the best
option for Buck at Lime City
roads. Those parties include
the township, career center,
Wood County and City of
Rossford.
He said the parties now
agree that a roundabout at
Lime City is the best option,
and he hopes to have the answers in the spring.
Mr. Britten, who works
for the county road department, acknowledged that
Lime City Road needs attention.
The county road was last
paved 10 years ago. “It is absolutely terrible,” he said, offering to pass along Mr.
Lebold’s complaint to the
county engineer.
The trustees also advised
Mr. Lebold to contact the
county engineer directly to
register his concerns.
Other Business
In other business, the
trustees:
•Approved a purchase
order of $20,000 to Bowers
Asphalt & Paving for hot mix
to be applied on Mandell and
Dunbridge roads.
•Provided $1,000 toward
the fire/EMS department’s
open house on October 11.
The event, which begins at
11 a.m., will feature tours of
the fire station, fire safety literature, food, children’s activities and giveaways of
weather radios and fire extinguishers.
“Thank you. It’s very nice
of you to support the department and its efforts,” said
Fire Chief Tom Brice.
The police department
also will participate with a bicycle safety course, and
demonstrations of defense
techniques. Police and fire
vehicles will be on display for
visitors.
•Accepted the retirement
of police Lieutenant Joe
Christie, effective November
1.
“I have enjoyed working
for Perrysburg Township, and
I sincerely appreciate the support provided to me during
my years as part of the department,” he said.
•Authorized zoning inspector Kelly Hemminger to
purchase a tablet, Surface Pro
3, at a cost of $800. Mrs.
Hemminger said the tablet
will be helpful when going
out on inspections.
•Tabled a decision on
whether to keep Trick or
Treat on Friday, October 31.
Due to high school football
games, some area jurisdictions have moved the date.
•Increased by $10,000 a
purchase order for Northwestern Water and Sewer
District due to an increase in
rates.
“The original $15,000
purchase order will not cover
it,” said Fiscal Officer Shirley
Haar.
The trustees also increased
by $17,000 a purchase order
to Luckey Farmers for maintenance department fuel.
Mrs. Haar attributed the
additional cost to the harsh
winter and the drain it put on
the department’s fuel budget.

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
In response to Merlin J
Artz’s a letter to the editor
dated September 10, 2014, all
of us are firefighter/paramedics. We can administer
many of the same medications, make many of the same
decisions, and perform many
of the same advanced life
saving procedures in an uncontrolled environment that
doctors and nurses perform in
the emergency room.
We all hold multiple certifications in the specialized
areas of fire science and
emergency medicine. Many
of us have also earned associates, bachelors, and even a
master’s degree. We are especially qualified when it concerns our safety, and our level
of service to our community.
We continually reference
several nationally recognized
staffing and personnel studies. Organizations such as the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST), the
International City Managers
Association (ICMA), and the
International Organization
for Standardization (ISO).
These are the organizations
that have the “superior
knowledge” through objective research.
A legitimate argument has
supporting premises that validate a conclusion. Here are
ours, anyone can look at the
facts and see for themselves.
Search (NFPA 1710 5.2.3.2.2
or
perrysburgfire
fighters.com).
You also are incorrect in
your statement “The National
Fire Protection Association,
which publishes standards
that address the fire service,
does not differentiate between volunteer and career
personnel.”
Please search NFPA 1710
(this is careering standard)
and NFPA 1720 (this is a volunteer standard) as a prime
example.
If you have any more
questions about the fire service, we would be happy to try
to answer them, or direct you
toward someone who can.

Dear Editor:
As a resident of the Perrysburg community for the
past 10 years, and an educator
in a neighboring school district, I support the upcoming
school levy on November 4. I
believe this bond issue will
allow us to protect the excellent academic and athletic tradition
that
represents
Perrysburg Schools.
I completely understand
that no one wants their taxes
to increase, but for $6.36 a
month (for a $200,000 home)
we can provide our students
the resources they need to be
successful. After having spoken to district leaders, and
playing a major role in my
district’s most recent levy
campaign, I understand the
challenges of seeking additional funding for schools. I
am extremely confident that
this levy was timed wisely
and is only asking for the resources absolutely necessary
to give our students the tools
they need to succeed.
If Perrysburg wants to remain a destination district, we
need to support our schools.
My wife and I chose to live in
Perrysburg and raise our two
children here because of the
close knit community and the
school system. We wanted
our children to have an outstanding education that would
prepare them for the future
and Perrysburg Schools definitely does that.
It is no secret that our district has grown, as evidenced
by the 20 mobile classrooms
currently being used by our
district and the 600 new students in the past 13 years.
With more growth inevitable,
we need to preserve the
school district we currently
have.

Rex Engle, the Rotary
District 6600 Governor, was
the guest speaker at the Rotary Club of Perrysburg’s
September 5 luncheon meeting.
Mr. Engle is a member of
the Oberlin Rotary Club and
the general manager of the
Oberlin Inn. As district governor, he is required to visit
all of the clubs in his district
within the first six months of
his term.
District Governor Engle
began his talk by asking Perrysburg Rotarians to recall
why they joined Rotary in
the first place.
“Does the reason you
joined Rotary still motivate
you?” asked Mr. Engle. He
then suggested to the Rotarians that if someone asks
them “What is Rotary?” they
should answer by explaining
how Rotary has impacted
them personally.
The district governor then
moved on to discussing six
main areas of focus by Rotary International:
•Water and sanitation;
•Disease prevention and
treatment;
•Health care for mothers
and children;
•Literacy;
•Economic and community development, and
•Conflict resolution.
The next topic in the district governor’s speech was
his suggestion that Rotarians
became Rotarians because of
their desire to serve their
communities and the world,
which is the number one
mission of Rotary worldwide. Mr. Engle also noted
that Rotarians remain active
in their clubs because of fellowship with other Rotarians
as well as the opportunity to
provide leadership for club
activities and endeavors.
The Rotary Foundation of
Rotary International became
his next focal point, noting
that Rotarians across the
globe contributed monetary
donations to the United
States in support of victims

of Hurricane Katrina and
Super Storm Sandy. The Rotary Foundation uses funds
donated and raised by Rotarians to support efforts
throughout the world, including Polio Plus, Rotary’s
effort to rid the world of
polio.
District Governor Engle
wrapped up his talk by presenting Paul Harris Fellowship commemorative items
to four Rotarians: Ellie McManus, Craig Thistlethwaite,
Kevin Rantanen, and Laurie
Huskisson. In order to become a Paul Harris Fellow a
Rotarian must contribute
$1,000 or more to the Rotary
Foundation. In addition,
Engle recognized Ken
Robinson as a Paul Harris
Bequest Society Member,
which requires that a Rotarian contribute $10,000 over
time through his or her estate

dates of operation, the locations, the owners and operators to the police raids that
attempted to shut them down.

Bod4God, a faith-based
weight-loss program, will be
held this fall at Monclova Road
Baptist Church on Mondays at
6:30 p.m.
The class will be offered free
of charge and is open to the
community.
Pastor Steve Reynolds, senior pastor of Capital Baptist
Church in Annandale, Virginia,
is the author of “Bod4God:
Four Keys to Weight Loss” and
will speak at the orientation
meeting September 22.
Pastor Reynolds had been
overweight all his life, weighing more than 100 pounds in
the first grade. After playing
football during high school and
college, he vowed never to exercise or run laps again. That
was one promise he kept, ballooning to 340 pounds and
staying there for years.
In
Bod4God,
Pastor
Reynolds—whom the media
labeled “the anti-fat pastor”
after he lost more than 100
pounds—shares
simple
lifestyle changes, both inside
and out, that led to his weight
loss. He shows how participants can change their lives forever by committing their
bodies to God’s glory.
Bod4God helps each person
craft a personal plan to follow
for life.
The Bod4God program includes the Losing to Live
weight-loss competition.
Statistics show that Christians are the most overweight
group in America. Losing to
Live has been designed to confront and solve this problem.
This program shows how to
lose weight and keep it off by
establishing a Bod4God
lifestyle.
“Bod4God has produced
more sustainable weight loss
for its participants than any
other program that I have been
involved with in my 20 years as
a dietitian,” said nutritionist
Vivian Hutson.
The Bod4God class will run
for 12 weeks at Monclova
Road Baptist Church, beginning September 22.
Each participant is assigned
to a team, and each member
has the ultimate goal to fight
against obesity as they compete
with team members and other
teams.
For more information, call
the the church office at 419866-0773 or visit www.

Who is this guy Harrison of Harrison Rally Day?
SECOND SECTION
By Clint Mauk
Harrison Rally Day is this
Saturday, September 20, and
just who is this guy Harrison
anyway?
I suspect that many, Perrysburg residents have little
knowledge of Perrysburg’s
most famous man, so let me
tell you about “Old Tip,” General William Henry Harrison.
Certainly the most dominant figure in the evolution of
the Northwest Territory in the
Upper Midwest (what would
become Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin), Harrison spent virtually
his entire adult life championing this very important region in the development of the
United States and its westward
growth.
Born in 1773 at Berkley
Plantation, Virginia, the
youngest of six children, to
one of Virginia’s elite families,
and close friends of George
Washington, he joined the
U.S. Army as a teenager, and
served as aide de camp to
General “Mad” Anthony
Wayne. He was heavily involved in all three of the most
important battles ever fought
against a foreign enemy on
U.S. soil, Fallen Timbers, Fort
Meigs and the Battle of Lake
Erie.
These three battles–all
fought within 40 miles of Perrysburg–finally drove out the
British and their Indian allies,
opening up the Northwest Territory to these five key states,
Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin, to western development.
After serving with “Mad”
Anthony Wayne at the Battle
of Fallen Timbers, Harrison
was appointed secretary of the
Northwest Territory, an important post, and its first delegate
to Congress. In 1801, he became governor of the Indiana
Territory. He was attempting
to control and purchase lands
from the native Indians, and
here began his long and bitter
struggle with the Shawnee
chief, Tecumseh, and his
brother the Prophet. This
struggle would continue for a
dozen years, culminating at
the final battle, the Battle of
the River Thames and the
death of Tecumseh, in Canada.
In 1811, Tecumseh and the
Prophet had built up the Indian
confederation to such an extent that Harrison received authority to attack them, and this
battle took place on the banks
of the Tippecanoe River in Indiana.
WWW.PERRYSBURG.COM
The battle began with the
Indians attacking Harrison’s
forces while they slept, but
Harrison’s troops were successful in winning the battle.
Harrison’s defeat of
Tecumseh on the Tippecanoe
established his reputation nationally, though it did not
solve any of the issues with
the Indians. He became a national figure, and adopted the
nickname “Old Tip,” a nickname that would be very
prominent in his future run for
the presidency, with the cry
“Tippecanoe and Tyler, too.”
Many considered this the first
battle of the War of 1812, even
though the war with the
British was not declared until
July 3, 1812.
Harrison quickly was appointed a major general in the
Kentucky militia, and soon
thereafter was made a
brigadier general of the regular U.S. Army. He was put in
charge of all the troops in the
Northwest Territory, and soon
became a major general.
After General Winchester’s
terrible defeat at Frenchtown,
now Monroe, Michigan on the
River Raisin, Harrison had to
regroup his forces, and on
February 1, began building
Fort Meigs, the largest stockade fort in the United States,
finishing it in record time
under miserable conditions in
April.
The conditions under
which the American troops
had to construct Fort Meigs
were brutal. The ground was
frozen solid, making digging
holes for the huge stockade
timbers a miserable, backbreaking job. And then in
March and April, it all turned
to mud.
When the troops left the
fort to gather firewood, and to
hunt and fish for food, they
were attacked, killed and
scalped by the huge Indian
forces under General Proctor.
The camp was filled with disease, with two or three soldiers
dying every day.
The fort’s design and construction was guided by Captain Eleazer Wood, a West
Point engineer, whose name
was used to name Wood
County. The fort enclosed 10
acres, with seven two-story
blockhouses, two underground
powder magazines, and five
elevated artillery batteries to
protect the perimeter. Mounds
of earth, or traverses, 12 feet
high and 20 feet thick at the
base, were built to shield the
soldiers from the British can-
William Henry Harrison
nonballs.
General Proctor had more
than 1,000 British and Canadian troops, eight schooners
and gunboats, and Chief
Tecumseh with more than
12,000 Indians. The British established four artillery batteries in what is now a Maumee
residential area.
Harrison’s cannons came
without cannonballs to fire at
the British, so to overcome his
shortages, Harrison gave his
soldiers extra rations of
whiskey for recovering cannonballs out of the mud,
which were then fired back at
their original owners.
By May 4, the British
seemed near victory in their
siege of the fort, but Harrison
would not surrender. That
night he got word that General
Green Clay was coming down
the Maumee, with 1,200 Kentucky reinforcements. Harrison ordered Clay to send 800
men to disable and spike the
British cannons on the north
side of the river, and the remaining 400 were to fight
their way to the fort. Both detachments were successful.
William Dudley, Clay’s
second in command easily
spiked the British guns, but
defying orders, chased the
enemy towards Fort Miamis
and fell into a trap. A total of
650 brave Kentuckians lost
their lives in that battle, that
would always be known as
Dudley’s Massacre.
The siege of Fort Meigs
lasted seven days. The British
withdrew, leaving the Americans in control of the Maumee
rapids, and threatening Detroit.
Before the battle of Fort
Meigs, the Americans had
never won an important battle
against the British in the northwest. After the siege, they
never lost another one.
Harrison made a real name
for himself at the Battle of
Tippecanoe and became the
principal political and military
Perrysburg Weekly Construction Update
9-17-14
This is a weekly listing of road work/road closures due to construction. There
are several projects planned for the Perrysburg area in addition to normal road
resurfacing projects. It may be wise to seek alternative routes to avoid delays.
•2014 Resurfacing Project
Through November
The city-wide resurfacing project begins September 22 with curb work on
the following roads: Coe Court, Logan Lane, Dwyer Drive, Eckel Junction Road

All work is weather permitting.
leader of the Northwest Territory. His successful defense of
Fort Meigs by breaking the
British and Indian siege, regaining control of the
Maumee River and preparing
to attack Detroit, gave the
Americans fresh courage and
energy.
But the British still controlled the Great Lakes and
Canada. Oliver Hazard Perry
was building his fleet in Erie,
Pennsylvania, under orders
from the Secretary of the Navy
to defeat the British fleet on
Lake Erie before winter.
After Perry’s successful
defeat and capture of the
British fleet, Harrison could
pursue the British Army and
General Proctor into Detroit,
Fort Malden, and Canada. In
this effort, the new American
hero, Perry, and Harrison combined to create an attack plan
that successfully ended the
War of 1812.
Perry transported Harrison’s army across Lake Erie to
Fort Malden, Ontario, the
main British port. Perry’s
ships and barges transported
the thousands of troops gathered for the final battle. Perry
supplied the troops–once they
were in Canada–by transporting all their supplies, baggage,
food and weapons, sailing parallel to Harrison’s land march
on the northern shore of Lake
Erie, up the Thames River in
pursuit of General Proctor.
The British general was
holed up at Fort Malden at the
mouth of the Detroit River.
General Proctor was once described as “one of the meanest
looking men I ever saw” with
personality to match. Cowardly, venal and abusive, he
was always putting his own
safety and comfort before his
troops’ welfare. Tecumseh and
his warriors were now realizing that their British leader
was a coward.
Without firing a shot at the
invading Americans, the
British Army retreated up the
Thames River, which flows
southwest between Lake St.
Clair and Lake Erie.
Tecumseh was furious at
this display of cowardice, and
some say, in disgust, that he attempted to shoot the British
general. Harrison’s army
marched through Amherstburg, Canada to the tune of
“Yankee Doodle!”
As Proctor retreated, Harrison followed him, with Perry
providing close support by
water. This advance and retreat continued for 11 days,
until October 6, when Proctor
decided to make a stand at
Monroviantown, on the banks
of the Thames River. Tecumseh’s war party included his
trusted aide, Charcoal Burner,
his brother-in-law, Stands
Firm, and Tecumseh’s only
son.
Harrison organized an unconventional assault by using
his Kentucky sharpshooters to
decide the battle with stunning
suddenness. British resistance
collapsed in about one minute.
Predictably, General Proctor
fled with his escort, leaving
his troops like the coward that
he was.
Meanwhile, on the left
flank, the Indian forces under
Tecumseh remained engaged.
After 30 minutes the Indians
fled the field, leaving behind
30 dead, including their heroic
chief, Tecumseh.
The war that mattered in
the Northwest Territory, the
War of 1812, ended in 1813 on
the banks of the Thames River.
Now that the British forces
were gone from the concern of
the United States, this military
hero, Harrison, became heavily involved in politics. He
first served his government
helping to organize the Second
Treaty of Greenville with the
Indians, in 1814, and being involved with the Treaty of
Ghent with the British shortly
thereafter.
Now this man, Harrison,
who had been secretary of the
Northwest Territory, governor
of the Indiana Territory, Congressional delegate for the
Northwest Territory, went on
to be an Ohio State senator,
minister to Columbia, member
of the House of Representatives, a U.S. senator and chairman of the Senate Committee
on Military Affairs, and an
early member of the new
Whig Party. He was known as
an impassioned debater, a
“tough Westerner,” and was
referred to by his fellow Westerners as a “buckeye.” (There
will be more on this later.)
Harrison was nominated as
the Whig candidate for President in 1836, against Van
Buren. Although he lost, he
became the prime Whig candidate four years later, running
again against Van Buren. The
story of his campaign, election
and death tells of Perrysburg’s
major involvement in the
story.
The Panic of 1837 did
Martin Van Buren no favors.
The economy was a disaster,
with high inflation, unemployment and business failures.
Van Buren was reluctant to
take corrective action, and his
mismanagement of the economic crisis was drawing
heavy criticism. The Whigs
saw an opportunity against
this aristocratic President. Van
Buren was held up as a foppish dandy with a gold spoon
in his mouth and no sympathy
for the working classes.
A Democratic newspaper
called Harrison a hard cider
drinking rough Westerner with
no graces, living in a log
cabin. This description gave
the Whigs just the theme and
slogan they wanted, despite
the fact that Harrison was a
teetotaler from one of the first
families of Virginia.
The E.C. Booz Distillery
(birth of a new word) created
bottles shaped like log cabins,
and filled them with hard
cider. The Whigs mass-marketed their candidate against
the foppish, perfumed, dandy
opponent.
Harrison took to the campaign trail in earnest, eloquently making his case, and
drawing huge crowds wherever he went. At every stop,
log cabins were hauled on
wagons leading parades, and
the hard cider was free.
Ohio was the Buckeye
state, and this became Harrison’s symbol. After a large
campaign appearance in
Columbus, the meeting closed
with a resolution that all the
young men of Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois and Michigan, planned
to meet at Fort Meigs, near
Perrysburg, in May to celebrate Harrison’s momentous
defeat of the British 26 years
earlier. Buckeye logs were
dragged in from every county
in Ohio to make a huge log
cabin on the grounds of the remains of Fort Meigs. The Fort
Meigs campaign meeting was
worthy of the title “most remarkable political gathering
ever witnessed in this country.”
It must be remembered that
travel and facilities were very
limited in those days, and Fort
Meigs and Perrysburg were on
the frontier. The assembled
crowd was estimated between
50,000 and 60,000 persons.
They came from all parts of
the country. Sixteen steamboats came up the river,
loaded beyond their capacity.
Military companies and a
large number of bands were
present. Every house and outhouse near and in Perrysburg
were loaded with weary men
who had traveled hundreds of
miles to join in the celebration.
All local wells were pumped
dry, and thousands slept on the
ground and in the woods. Thus
was inaugurated and successfully concluded the greatest
political demonstration, all
things considered, ever witnessed on the continent.
Harrison was elected overwhelmingly. He took the oath
of office on March 4, 1841, a
cold and wet day. He delivered
the longest inaugural address
in American history–8,500
words that took two hours–
wearing no hat or coat. Tradition has it this experience
caused his death 31 days later,
of pneumonia, but this is not
true. He was the oldest elected
president until Ronald Reagan, and served the shortest
term.
According to legend, the
“Curse of Tecumseh” was
placed on Harrison, that supposedly would cause the death
of every President elected in a
year ending in “zero.” This
“zero-year curse” obviously
applied to Harrison’s death,
elected in 1840, as well as the
next six zero-year Presidents:
Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley,
Harding, Franklin Roosevelt
and Kennedy. President Reagan’s survival of an assassination attempt seems to have
broken the curse, and President George W. Bush escaped
it altogether.
Thus ends the story of
President and General William
Henry Harrison, his great impact on the history of this nation, and most particularly on
Perrysburg. I trust now that
Harrison Rally Day will have
a little more meaning for all of
us.

chairman
for
Keep
Toledo/Lucas County Beautiful (KT/LCB) and member
of Perrysburg Litter Control.
Several months ago, he
was surprised by the institution of the KT/LCB sponsored “Jerry Bannister Green
Stewardship Award.” His
wife, Sheri Bannister said he
was truly honored and proud
to be remembered this way.
Family and friends of Mr.
Bannister donated close to
$5,000 to the library in his
memory.
An additional $5,000 was
donated by O-I in tribute to
his 37-year career with the
company and his determined
passion for the environment.
O-I also donated $5,000 to
Keep Toledo/Lucas County
Beautiful in his honor.

Dorothy Clarke: A Solo Exhibit on display at Municipal Building
Twenty five paintings by
the late Dorothy Clark
(1905-1986) have been
brought together from private collections throughout
the region for a special tribute exhibition of the beloved
artist. The exhibit is on display now through October
15, in the Perrysburg Municipal Building, 201 West Indiana Avenue. Viewing hours
are Monday through Friday,
from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Ms. Clarke was a popular
and prolific painter, lecturer
and painting instructor in the
area for decades. Her articles
and drawings were published
in numerous editions of
Highlight Magazine, Ford
Times Magazine and the art
magazine, Impresario.
A severe stroke in the
early 1980s impacted her art
career but not her indomitable spirit. She continued to paint, despite the after
effects of the stroke until she
passed away in 1986.
“Her legacy not only lives
in her paintings but in the
love of art and music she instilled in her children and
grandchildren,” said her
daughter
Betty
Clarke
Palmer of Bowling Green.
“She would involve her
grandchildren in her creating
so they would always feel a
part of her passion. They

might help stretch a canvas,
go along on a Sunday afternoon photo excursion, pick
cattails from a ditch for one
of her still life paintings or
just sit by her side as she
would paint and tell animated stories peppered with
her infectious laugh.”
Her granddaughter, artist
Erin Palmer Szavuly of Perrysburg, has a portrait of her
grandmother on display in
the exhibit. Her watercolor
painting of Dorothy Clarke
is a stylistic representation of
her grandmother, complete
with shockingly red tussled
hair, an elephant pin and a
look of utter self satisfaction
with who she was–an outgoing, humorous, musician,
artist, and beloved grandmother with a positive attitude. This is how Ms.
Szavuly fondly remembers
her “Grammy.”
Ms. Szavuly holds a master of fine arts degree in
drawing and is an art faculty
member of Lourdes College.
She is currently the president
of the Toledo Federation of
Art Societies.

The Maumee Valley Historical Society will hold a gala
anniversary party on Sunday, October 12, from 4 to 7 p.m.,
at the historic river front home of Peter and Colleen Demczuk.
The party will commemorate the 150th anniversary of
the society. Guests have the option to attend in period costume.
The roots of the Society extends back to 1864 when a
group of early pioneers and entrepreneurs came together
to form the Maumee Valley Pioneer Association. Their
stated purpose was to protect the historic artifacts of the
Maumee Valley and to document the history of the early
settlers for future generations.
Although the original mission has continued to be a
guiding force throughout the years, it has expanded to include the operation of a six building museum complex and
a broad range of educational, cultural and historical programs. From publishing an annual collection of historical
reminiscences, the Society publishes the Northwest Ohio
History and each year plays host to hundreds of school
children and adults who tour the buildings and are introduced to the rich history of the Maumee Valley.
Members of the planning committee include, from left
Marilyn Wendler, Janet Russ-Jones, Peter and Colleen
Demczuk, Judy Walrod, Marcia McCready, and Claudia
Stein.

college and graduate level in Ohio, Michigan, and Florida.
They will be in many churches and other venues as well as on

bringing ministry, relief and aide.
The Toledo Repertoire
Theatre will hold auditions for
two upcoming productions.
Auditions for “Blithe
Spirit,” by Noel Coward, will
be held Saturday, September
27, with invited callbacks on
Saturday, October 4, on the
10th Street stage starting at 1
p.m.
This comedic play focuses
on a worldly novelist, who invites the eccentric clairvoyant,
Madame Arcati, to his house
to conduct a séance, hoping to
gather material for his next
book. The scheme backfires
when he is haunted by the
ghost of his temperamental
first wife, while his second
wife cannot see or hear the
ghost.
The cast is comprised of
the following eight characters
(five women, two men), which
are now all open for casting:
Edith, the maid, any age; Ruth
Condomine, a smart-looking
woman in her mid-30s;
Charles Condomine, a nicelooking man of about 40; Doctor
Bradman,
a
pleasant-looking, middle-aged
man; Mrs. Bradman, fair and
rather faded, no age specified,
but likely similar to Dr. Bradman; Madame Arcati, a striking woman, age 45-65; Elvira,
“not quite of this world,” late
20s or early 30s. Those auditioning will be asked to read
from the script, which will be
provided. Prepared pieces are
not required.
Directed by Matthew Gretzinger, performances of
“Blithe Spirit” are January 1618 and 22-25.
Auditions for the Toledo
Rep’s holiday classic tradition
of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” will be held Sunday, September 28, on the 10th
Street stage starting at 1 p.m.
This timeless tale of redemption follows Ebenezer
Scrooge as he is transformed
by the spirits of Christmas
Past, Present and Future from
a miserly old curmudgeon into
a man who embodies the true
meaning of Christmas.
Those auditioning should
prepare 16 bars of a song of
their choice and bring sheet
music.
A pianist will be provided.
Participants also may be asked
to dance.
Directed by Debra Ross
Calabrese, assistant director
Scott Heuerman and music director David Jex, performances will be held at the

Jackets top Central Catholic to move to 3-0
By Scott Buker
In a highly anticipated
matchup between two of the
premier football programs in
northwest Ohio, it was Perrysburg High School defeating Central Catholic, 35-28,
at Widdel Field at Steinecker
Stadium this past Friday
night.
For the Jackets, the win
improves their record to 3-0
on the year. The Jackets now
turn their focus to their
Northern Lakes League
schedule. Central Catholic
falls to 1-2.
Perrysburg, already coming off impressive wins
against Whitmer and Clay,
outgained the Irish in total offense, 511 to 374.
It was senior quarterback
Gus Dimmerling once again
leading the Jackets. Dimmerling, the defending Northern
Lakes League Player of the
Year and an honorable mention All-Ohio player a year
ago, combined for 418 total
yards and four touchdowns.
Dimmerling took the
Jacket offense quickly down
the field on their first possession of the game. A five-yard
touchdown pass to tight end
Cole McClary were the
game’s first points, giving the
Jackets a 7-0 lead with 9:36
to play in the opening quarter.
Central Catholic would
answer though. Two touchdown drives in the first quarter gave the Irish a 14-7 lead
heading into the second quarter.
But the second quarter
proved to be all Perrysburg.
Less than four minutes into
the quarter, Dimmerling connected with receiver Scott
Freeman on an 11-yard
touchdown pass that tied the
game at 14.
Midway through the quarter, Dimmerling gave the
Jackets the lead with an 11yard scoring scamper at the
The Northern Wood
County College Fair will be
held Wednesday, October 8,

All Perrysburg High

parents are invited to attend,
as well as students and parents from Bowling Green,
Eastwood, Lake, Northwood, Otsego and Rossford
high schools.
This is an OACAC approved fair.

colleges and universities.
Close to 50 universities are
scheduled to be at the fair.
In addition, a presentation will be given at 7 p.m.,
for those interested in learning more about navigating
college with a learning disability.
For more information,
call Lindsay Czech at PHS
at 419-874-3181, extension
5182.
4:55 mark in the quarter.
Up 20-14, the Jackets
pushed their lead further on
the half’s last play of the
game. With Trevor Hafner
now in the game at quarterback, the junior found Freeman for a two-yard scoring
play with no time left on the
clock. The same two players
would connect for the twopoint conversion, making the
halftime score 28-14.
Central Catholic pulled
the game back within a
touchdown early in the fourth
quarter when Dimmerling

made arguably his only mistake of the game. The quarterback, looking to get rid of
the ball to avoid a sack, was
intercepted and then the Irish
returned it only two yards for
a touchdown.
Dimmerling responded
though. The quarterback took
the drive and marched the
Jackets down the field and
then scored on a nine-yard
run, making the score 35-21.
Central would add another
score, but the Jacket defense
continued to thrive with the
game on the line. The Jackets
were able to wear out the
clock to earn the 35-28 victory.
Dimmerling did it both
through the air and on the
ground. The quarterback
rushed for 237 yards on 31 attempts and two scores. He
also completed 12 of 19
passes for 181 yards and a
pair of touchdowns.
Dimmerling’s favorite target was senior Quinn
Thomas. The senior caught
eight passes for 205 yards to
lead the team.
The Jackets will now
begin their NLL schedule.
They will open the league
schedule this Friday against
the Bowling Green Bobcats.
Kickoff is scheduled for 7
p.m., at Widdel Field at Steinecker Stadium.

The Perrysburg Yellow
Jacket boys cross country
team competed close to home
over the weekend at the Chet
Sullwood Invitational at Ottawa Park Golf Course in
Toledo.
Academics trump athletics,
and thus the Jackets were
short four of their top seven
runners in lieu of ACT testing
that morning. The team’s
placement in the overall standings suffered, but 18 out of 23
personal bests demonstrated
continued improvement.
Senior Captain Clayton
Shook once again led his
team, and once again set an all
time personal best, both of
which he has done for the past
three weeks. His time of 17:18
was good for 22nd overall.
He was followed by senior
Matt Studer and junior Darcy
Cavanagh, at 18:01 and 18:52,
respectively.
After that the Jacket top
five welcomed newcomers Jeremy Furlong, who dropped
45 seconds for a career best
19:03, and freshman Elson
Dolliver, who followed
closely at 19:05.
The Jackets also produced
some fine performances in the
junior varsity race, led by senior Connor Massell in a season
best 18:48.
Other highlights included
personal bests by freshman
Adam Billmaier (19:28), junior Lee Odegaard (20:12),
freshman James Hannenman
(20:27), sophomore Joseph
Park (21:38), freshman Brandon Hutchins (26:18), and
senior Josh McGee (31:04).
With their full lineup returning next weekend, the
Jackets will head west to the
Widewater Invitational in Liberty Center.
It is a course that perennially produces fast times and
personal bests.

Rhythm on the River concert series continues with Melody Road
The next program of the
Rhythm on the River Arts Series will be presented by the
Melody Road on Sunday,
September 21, at 4 p.m.
The series is sponsored by
the Grand Rapids Historical
Society.
This event is changed
from its originally scheduled
date, due to a conflict.
Bob and Mary Fry of Fostoria, Ohio, are the members
of Melody Road.
They write much of their
own music, but also perform
covers by artists such as Martina McBride, Michael W.
Smith, Elvis, James Taylor,
the Beatles, and many more.
They have recorded three
albums of original songs and
have a CD of lullabies written by Mary titled “Slumbertime” and another CD of
their original songs titled
“Melody Road.”
The two also have a music
ministry, traveling around to
many churches in Ohio.
The Rhythm programs are
held in the Wright Pavilion

Live smart, enter for chance
to win OSU football tickets
Ohio State University
Extension wants Ohio’s families to live smart.
To get families thinking
that way, OSU Extension’s
Family and Consumer Sciences program has launched
a social media-based contest
through September for a
chance to win a pair of November 1 Ohio State University versus University of
Illinois football tickets.
Ohioans are being asked to
post pictures of their smart
healthy lifestyle choices
with the hashtag #LiveSmartOhio on Facebook, Twitter
or Instagram by September
30.
The best posts will be
featured on a new Live
Smart Ohio website to be
launched in November, and
a grand prize winner will be
chosen at random during the
first week of October for the
football tickets, said Jamie
Seger, one of the project’s
organizers.
Information on the site
will be organized in four
areas–food, money, mind
and body, and families and
relationships–to allow users
to easily access information.
State Extension specialists, field specialists and
county educators throughout
Ohio will contribute to the
site.
The website address,
go.osu.edu/livesmartohio,
currently hosts the FCS program’s Eat, Save, and Be
Healthy blog.
That information will
continue to be accessible on
the new website but will be
arranged according to the
four topic areas.
To stay up to date with
Live Smart Ohio, like “OSU
Extension, Family and Consumer Sciences” on Facebook or search for the
hashtag #LiveSmartOhio on
Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

Hermione is a five-year-old tabby with an
abundance of personality! She is very vocal
and she is known among the staff as
“Hermione the Whiny.” She is not shy about
letting you know that she wants attention
and she wants it NOW! Hermione is considered “special needs” because she is FIV+,
but don’t let that scare you away. She will
make a wonderful companion for someone
who has lots of affection and attention to
give, so stop out and meet her today!
Because Hermione is FIV+, her adoption fee
is waived with an approved application.

Draco is a five-month-old black
kitten. He is a rambunctious kitten
who loves to run around and play
with his toys. Draco also can often
be found climbing to the top of the
cat tree or even a willing staffer’s
shoulders. (He’s sort of ornery that
way!) Draco is considered “special
needs” because he is FIV+, but don’t let that scare you away. He
will make a wonderful companion for someone who has lots of
affection and attention to give, so stop out and meet him today!
Because Draco is FIV+, his adoption fee is waived with an
approved application.
Cats listed as FIV positive have tested positive for the FIV antibody. This doesn't necessarily mean that the cat has FIV, only that
he/she has been exposed to the virus. This can result in false positives in cats/kittens that either had an FIV positive mother or were
vaccinated for FIV.
FIV is the feline equivalent to the human HIV virus. It is not contagious to humans, but could potentially be spread to other cats.
For this reason, we recommend that FIV cats be the only cats in a
home or go to homes with other FIV cats. FIV can be tolerated
well by cats, but it can attack their immune system. Because of
this, owners of FIV positive cats need to be extra attentive to signs
of illness. Generally as long as minor ailments are tended to swiftly, the cat will suffer no adverse effects.
**All of our pets have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated appropriate to their age, tested for heart worm and current on prevention
in dogs, received an initial de-worming and flea prevention, have a
14-day health guarantee and a free physical exam to local participating veterinary offices. All of our pets are also microchipped
prior to adoption.**
Please visit or call the Wood County Humane Society at 419-352-7339
to learn more about these great pets. All of our adoptable animals can
be viewed by visiting www.WoodCountyHumaneSociety.org.

two recent leadership appointments. Kerry Tirman,

years of strategic healthcare
experience leading key

Kerry Tirman
growth initiatives with hospital leaders and physicians. Both report to Thomas Arquilla, who will continue in his dual role
as metro chief executive officer for Mercy and CEO for Mercy St. Vincent.
“At Mercy, we are called to be leaders in our industry as it undergoes rapid change,” said
Mr. Arquilla. “Having recently announced a freestanding ER and diagnostic center in Sylvania
Township, opening a new cardiac cath lab at St. Anne and leading advancements in robotic surgeries at St. Vincent, we look toward our senior leaders to help us build upon our promise of
leadership, innovation and quality care. Kerry and Jeff are key to that team and I welcome them
to their new positions,” said Imran Andrabi, MD, chief operating officer and president/chief
network integration officer, Mercy.
Mr. Tirman began his position in April at Mercy St. Vincent and comes to the organization
from Mississippi where he served previously as president and COO for Mississippi Baptist
Hospital system, a not-for-profit system in Jackson. He has held executive leadership positions
with Tenet Healthcare in Birmingham, Alabama, and with Health Management Associates,
Inc., in Mississippi. He is a former officer in the United States Navy and received his juris
doctorate and master’s in business administration from Tulane University. Mr. Tirman is a Fellow in the American College of Health Care Executives. He and his wife, Vicki, have two sons,
Chase and Cory.
“As we continue to focus on building physician partnerships and strengthen our healthcare
services, Kerry’s leadership and expertise is essential and will continue to position Mercy for
success well into the future,” Mr. Arquilla said.
Mr. Dempsey began his new position in mid-August and has been with Mercy for the past
17 years, serving in several leadership positions. Most recently, he has served as vice president
of operations for St. Charles where he worked closely with the hospital’s senior leadership
team in developing a robust strategic plan. Additionally, he worked with St. Charles leaders
and managers to standardized processes to enhance efficiency and quality as well as played a
key role in the recently announced employment partnership with the Oregon Clinic. Previous
to that, Mr. Dempsey served as director of strategic initiatives/business development/specialty
outreach for Mercy where he cultivated physician relationships and worked closely with the senior leadership team in furthering Mercy’s presence throughout northwest Ohio by way of introducing new services, programs and initiatives.
Mr. Dempsey received his bachelor’s in business administration degree from the University
of Toledo and his master’s in business administration from Heidelberg University in Tiffin. He
is active in the Toledo and Oregon communities serving on the boards of the Oregon Economic
Development Foundation, the East Toledo Family Center and American Red Cross of Northwest Ohio. He and his wife, Sheila, reside in Sylvania with their two children, Jacob and Emily.
“Jeff is a tremendous leader within Mercy and I am pleased he has fully accepted the role
of president and COO for St. Charles,” Mr. Arquilla said. “Having served as St. Charles Vice
President of Operations for the last four years, Jeff brings insight and expertise to his new role
that will allow St. Charles to continue the momentum of meeting the growing, changing healthcare needs of the Oregon and surrounding communities.”
