Offenders barred
from living near kids
BY MARK J. CRAWFORD
Telegraph Editor
A law is now in the books in the
city of Starke prohibiting convicted
sex offenders and predators from
establishing residence near locations
where children congregate.
Before the new restrictions were
given unanimous approval by the city
commission. Commissioner Carolyn
Spooner asked about language that
would make landlords responsible for
knowingly renting to sex offenders in
a prohibited area.
Attorney. John Broling said
landlords must do so knowingly for it
to be a violation of the law, and the
city was not placing responsibility on
landlords to check the status of a
potential tenant. The sex offender has
to register and, in doing so, will know
where not to locate, he said.
Broling said the purpose of the
ordinance was not to completely bar
residency to sex offenders, but as a
practical matter, outlawing residency
For someone who's been waiting 10 years to break ground on a new library, you would

Actually, hers was a commemorative shovel engraved with the date of the
groundbreaking, and it will occupy a future display. Henriksen is pictured above with

Many gather to break ground on new facility
BY MARK J. CRAWFORD
Telegraph Editor
A beautiful day and an invocation
by the Rev. Ross Chandler greeted
those who turned out to see ground
broken on one of the county's most
anticipated projects in years-the
new public library that will be built
on Pratt Street in the city of Starke.
Terry Vaughan, chairman of the
Library Advisory Board,
acknowledged the many people who
have come together to see a new
library built in Bradford County.
'"This day has been a long time
coming ... So many people have
pulled together on this project, I can
honestly say that in my time in public
service, I have never seen a project
that pulled so many diverse interests
together for the common ,good than
this project. It has been a wonderful
partnership," Vaughan said.
:From the Bradford County
Commission and the Library
Advisory Board it appointed to
oversee the project to Santa Fe
Community College, the Suwannee
River Water Management District
and the professionals hired to consult
on, design or build the project, there
was plenty of recognition toe go
around.
Vaughan saluted the county.
commission, saying the board
understood both the cultural and
economic boost an expanded library
would provide. Not only have studies
shown a large economic return on the
money invested in libraries, he said,
but this project'will also be "!striking
huge blow in the fight against
illiteracy."
Vaughan singled but one county
commissioner in particular for
identifying the county's need and
working to make a new library a
reality.'
"I want to especially say thank you
to Commissioner John Cooper.,
Without his vision and the sweat
equity he was willing to put into this
project early on, this day would have
never occurred," Vaughan said.
County Chairman John Wayne
Hersey called the groundbreaking a
wonderful day for Bradford County,'
and he commended the cooperation
with the city of Starke, which traded
properties with the county and
provided the library a new home.
Hersey said the project couldn't
have come to this point without
friends in high places. Michelle Barth
was on hand to represent U.S. Sen.
Bill Nelson, who wrote of the
importance of libraries in a letter to
the gathering.
"In this information age, ,the
resources and guidance offered by
our public" libraries are ..more
important than ever. I thank you for
your continued efforts to ensure that
Florida's residents are prepared for
the world of tomorrow," Nelson
wrote.
Sen. Mel Martinez sent Kevin
Doyle and Blair Blackard to represent
his office. Vaughan also represented
Florida Sen. Rod Smith and Rep. Joe
Pickens, but special recognition went
to Rep. Aaron Bean, who worked
alongside Cooper for several years to
get state giraht money to help fund the
library construction project.
See LIBRARY, p. 2A
within 2,500 feet of the included
areas may, in fact, have that effect as
the restrictions could leave very little
room to live elsewhere within the city
limits ..
"As a practical matter, it may have
that effect, but there may be some
corner or pocket that would be in the
city limits but would not be within
2,500 feet (of places children
congregate)," Broling said.
The ordinance refers to repeat
sexual offenders and sexual predators
who prey on children as "an extreme
threat to the public safety" and
prohibits anyone convicted of a sex
crime against a victim 16 years old or
younger, regardless of whether
adjudication has been withheld, from
living temporarily or permanently
within 2,500 feet of any school,
daycare center, park, playground or
other location where children
congregate.

Charges dropped against
DOC officer,
BY MARK J. CRAWFORD
Telegraph Editor
Florida Department of Corrections
employees Richard Frye and James
Bowen will not be prosecuted for
allegedly participating in a brawl last
spring and are back on the state
payroll.
Charges against the two and former
Region 1 Director Allen "A.C." Clark
were reduced to misdemeanors in
December. All three were accused of
attacking a. former correctional
officer at a softball banquet in
Tallahassee last April, but charges
against Frye and Bowen have now
been dropped.
Assistant State Attorney Phil Smith
said such conduct was an
embarrassment to all state
employees, but hundreds of pages of
evidence and testimony were not
enough to determine their culpability
beyond a reasonable doubt.
Charges against Clark have not
been dropped.
While Frye and Bowen were back
on the payroll Tuesday, it was unclear
whether or not either would be
allowed to return to work. That
decision may await completion of an
investigation by a the inspector
general's office.
Frye was a colonel and Bowen a
major while working at Apalachee
Correctional Institution, but those
positions have since been assigned to
other employees.
Meanwhile, four more drug arrests
were made last week in connection
with steroid abuse among corrections
employees.
Kevin Kennington of Lake City, a
lieutenant at South Florida Reception
Center, and Chuck Wilson of Starke,
a sergeant at New River Correctional
Institution, were each charged with
one count of steroid possession for
incidents occurring in August 2002.
Stacey Lanier. Green of Lake
Butler, a sergeant at Lake
Correctional Institution, was charged
with possession of steroids for
incidents occurring in February 2003.
Also charged with steroid
possession for incidents occurring in
August 2003 was Robert Combass of
Jasper, a correctional officer at New
River.
All incidents are alleged to have
occurred in -Bradford County, and
each charge is a misdemeanor.
All four DOC employees are now
on administrative leave.

Bean was present to break
ground alongside other
officials, and Vaughan noted
that it wasn't every day that
politicians were able to throw
dirt and get applauded for it.
Santa Fe Community
College President Jackson
Sasser, speaking on behalf of
all of those at the college who
have assisted with the project,
including John Sikorski, Diane
Gross and Harvey Sharron, said
Santa Fe's involvement with
the library is just one more .way
in which the college is trying to
serve the community. The
college will assist with new
computer purchases and paving
the parking lot, which will
serve both the library and
students at the Stump Center.
The Suwannee River Water
Management District.
represented by Jerry
Scarborough, Jerry Bowden,.
Patrick Webster and Sylvia
Tatum, assisted with additional
property acquisition and is
designing a drainage and
retention system to address
"flooding problems on Pratt
Street and U.S. 301.
Consultants Gerard McCabe
and Bernadette Stork helped
gauge public opinion to
develop a report .that was the
foundation. for designing a
library that would meet the
communiiy's- n-ee'ds. The "
architects selected were Jack
Hedge of Design Group in
Ohio and Bradford County's
own Spyros Drivas. Hedge said
the building would be energy
and, therefore, cost efficient.
All State Construction was
chosen to build the library. Vice
President Casey Weldon,
joined by Project Manager Joe
Nealon, expressed their
excitement at being chosen to
build a library everyone could
be proud of.
Vaughan said it was very
appropriate that the Woman's
Club of' Starke had become
involved with the library
project as it was the Woman's
Club that established the first
library in a storage room as a
WPA project. Books were
rented for.10 cents a week, and
'that" money went toward the
purchase of new books. The
library moved to larger and
larger rooms at, the Woman's
Club as its popularity grew. In
1957, the county provided
space on the second floor of the
old jail, and Woman's Club
members were appointed to
serve on the first library board.
In 1963, still more space was
needed, so the library moved
back to Walnut Street in the
building now occupied by
Badcock Furniture. A fund-
raising project began in 1969 to
build a new library building,
and the result was the .library's
present home on Jackson
Street, which opened its doors'
in 1975.
Library advisory board-
members include Vaughan,
-..Chuck Kramer, .Brenda
Donaldson, Cheryl Canova,
Vivian Chappell, Tommy
Chastain, Shelley Torode and
Mark Crawford. Don Tilley has
also served with the board. The
board was created by the
county commission in 2003,
and members'have advised the
commission on the selection of
the site as well as consulting,
design and construction
services. They have done so
with the guidance of Library
Director Phalbe Henriksen,
whose interest in building a
new library over the past 10
years has made her a veritable
expert in the process.
Capital City Bank is
financing the project.
Site clearing work will now
begin with actual construction
slated to start in March.

more women die of these

of heart issues are different in
women than men.
Dr. Beavers was introduced
by one of his patients, Altrusa's

getting information to women
on heart health had been a
priority for Altrusa, educating
women on the importance of
heart health has taken on new
meaning for club members.
"We have seen first hand,
through Mary Powell, the
success that can be achieved
when women know the
symptoms of heart diseases and
how to get immediate care

Dana 'Crase, president of
Altrusa. "She is an important

known. The organization
submitted grants, written by
members Mary Powell, and
Cheryl Canova, to several
agencies throughout the year
and received $3,000 from Wal-
Mart and $1,000 through
Altrusa International Inc. One
hundred percent of these funds
went back into the community.
A $1,500 grant was given to
Hampton. Elementary and
Lawtey Community School.
Grants worth $250 were also
By Community School
:k Stephens and
given to Bradford Vo-Tech,
Southside Elementary and the .-
, Friends of the Library. A fourth
grant for $250 has yet to be
awarded.
These funds were
specifically 'earmarked for use
in purchasing books to replace
old, torn or lost library books.
Principals, reading coaches and
other,. school personnel
attended luncheons held by
Altrusa to receive their awards.
The replacement' of library
books is phase two in Altrusa's
literacy plan for the current
year.
Submitted by Carole Decelle
Accepting a $3,000 check from Wal-Mart that they turned around and donated to
local schools and organizations to support literacy are Altrusans Vicki Teal,
Linda Tatum, Linda Johns, Mary Powell, Martha Epps, Carole Decelle, Cheryl
Canova and Dana Crase.

CITY OF STARKE
NOTICE OF FIRST PUBLIC HEARING
The City of Starke is considering applying to the Florida Department of Community Affairs
(DCA) for a FFY 2006 Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) of up to
$700,000. These funds must be used for one of the following purposes:
1. To benefit low and moderate income persons; or
2. To aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; or
3. To meet other community development needs having a particular urgency because
existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the
community and where other financial resources are not available to meet such needs.
The activity categories for which these funds may be used are in the areas of housing,
neighborhood and commercial revitalization, or economic development (new jobs). Eligible
uses of funds include such physical improvement activities as housing and commercial
building rehabilitation, clearance, water and sewer improvements, street improvements,
drainage, housing site development, parking, and loans to businesses. Additional information
regarding the range of activities that may be undertaken will be provided at the public
hearing.
For each activity that is proposed, at least 70% of the funds must benefit low and moderate
income persons.
In developing an application for submission to DCA, the City must plan to minimize
displacement of persons as a result of planned CDBG activities. In addition, the City is
required to develop a plan to assist displaced persons.
The public hearing to receive citizen views concerning the community's housing, economic
and other community development will be held on February 7, 2006, beginning at 7:00 p.m.
in the Starke City Hall, 209 North Thompson Street, Starke, FL 32091. This is a handicapped

EquitV report shows Bradford schools need improvement

"
d i di trict the female team three-hour class titled "Mariy
BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND.
Telegraph Staff Writer
During a Jan. 9 workshop,
the Bradford County Sdhool
Board reviewed an educational.
-equity audit and determined
some work was still needed to
,_e- fully compliant with the
auditors' recommendations.,
Director of Curriculum
Becky Reddish, who took over
the position in August when
Eugenia Whitehead retired,
presented the report.
Auditors from the Office of
Equity and Access in
Tallahassee conducted their
on-site review on April 19-22,:
2005. Reddish said this .was
their -first site visit in more
than 20 years.
The OEA auditors looked at
handbooks, employment
applications, procedures,
policies and numerous other
documents at schools within
the district.- They also
interviewed principals and
other school employees.
They pinpointed specific
areas that certain schools
within the district need to
work on to provide all students
with an equal education.
Reddish received the report
during the first part of
December, but because of
school holidays', she said she
had less time to work on fixing
the issues. The deadline to turn
in detailed plans and timelines
of how the schools plan to fix
/ the problems was moved from
Jan. 30 to mid-February.
Some concern was raised by
the OEA auditors over the fact
that the Bradford school'
district had not turned in a self-
evaluation or a Facilities
Transition Plan that is required
as part of the Americans with
Disabilities Act.
According to the report,
"The deadline for completing
the self-evaluation was Jan.'26,
1993, and most school districts
have complied with this
At the workshop,
maintenance supervisor J.E.
Mott said most of the issues
with being in compliance with
the ADA came from needing
to install more Braille signage
and converting all bathrooms
to be handicap accessible.
The report mentioned that
the district office, constructed
in 1949, had a "lack of raised
tables and inaccessible seating
and inaccessible restrooms."
Other schools had problems
with Braille signs, narrow
restrooms and inaccessible
ramps,
The OEA recommended that
the district conduct the self-
evaluation and develop a"
Facilities Transition Plan
detailing timelines, costs and
renovations that have to be
made and submit this by mid-
February.
From the data provided by
the school district, the auditors
reported that "racial/ethnic
minorities are under
repreisenteu n many i. usrict
and administrative positions."
Of all of the school
personnel, 84 percent are
white, 15 percent are black and
1 percent are Hispanic. The
auditors noted that in
interviews with school
personnel, it was hard' to
recruit minorities because of
lack of housing, college
attendance, out of town,
location and competitive salary
offers elsewhere.
Recommendations in the'
Sport were for the district to
implement creative recruitment
strategies and to: post job
notices in Black Collegiate
Magazine, the .National
Education Association and at.
historically black colleges and
universities.
Another issue the auditors
had stemmed from athletics.
Even though women account
for the majority of Bradford
school personnel. they do not
coach male sports. To
compare, men coach many of
The auditors felt there were
not enough female athletes.
In 2003-2,004, 11 percent of
the physical education classes
were single-sex classes, such
as, a class solely. for the
football team.
At Lawtey 'Community
School, for example, there is a
baseball team where, male and
female students 'are invited to.
play, said Iawtey Principal
Lisa Prevatt. Though, no
females currently play on the
team.
The auditors suggested the
district highlight female
athletics and encourage equal
participation between males
and females: Equal equipment
and facilities should be
available to both groups.
Reddish said, she had already,
been working with the schools
to resolve the issues mentioned
in the audit.
The district offers diversity
training classes, with the last
Faces, Many People," being
held Jan. 3.
The report complimented the
schools, too.
The gifted program, known
as QUEST (Quality Education
for Special Talent), services
students in all grades who have
scored certain levels in IQ and
academic testing. According to-
the report, the elementary
schools' gifted teacher-
"provides curricula beyond:
what is offered in the regular
classroom on a weekly basis"
and provides once-a-month
consultations.
In order to increase FCAT
scores, Bradford schools
monitor student progress, offer-
tutoring and provide dther
programs to encourage better:
test scores.
Regarding disabled student-i,
the report said the school made
the proper and necessary
adjustments when a disabled
student needed them.

Starke rewrites sign ordinance
BY MARK J. CRAWFORD
Telegraph Editor
The city of Starke is getting
ready to remove content from
its sign ordinance that opened
it up to legal challenge last
year.
The. move comes after the
'.city was sued over the
constitutionality of its sign
code. .
Attorney John Broling and
City Manager Ken Sauer
worked together to revise the
sign ordinance to comply with
the I 1I' Circuit Court of
Appeals ruling in Solantic
LLC versus .the city of
Neptune Beach. It is based on
a sample ordinance drafted by
the Florida League of Cities,
and their attorneys feel it
would "pass constitutional
muster," Broling said.
Solantic sued Neptune
Beach for essentially the same
reasons the city of Starke was
sued by Sunshine, Outdoor of
Florida Inc.-content based
regulation of speech because
the. ordinance forbids some
sings and exempts.others based
on content. In addition, there,
were no time limits established
for decisions on sign permits,
which the court said
constituted unlawful prior
restraint.
Starke was sued over the
constitutionality of its sign
code by Sunshine after no
action was taken to approve or
deny a permit application to
replace a billboard between
Capital : City Bank and
Wainwright Produce. Sunshine
had been told a permit would
be necessary to replace the
billboard, which received
storm damage in 2004.
Broling has asked the city
commission to review the
ordinance and make
suggestions on sign size and
placement, so the draft can be
completed and the ordinance
advertised for public hearings.
The present draft contains the
current regulations' onir
setbacks, size, position and,
zoning, which are content
neutral and had nothing to do
with free speech, Broling said.
"If it's the feeling of the
board that certain types of
signs are too large or that
certain areas of the city should
have a different style of sign,
different size of sign or
different height of sign, that
would be helpful to know,"
Broling said, adding that such
changes could be made before
advertisement of the
ordinance.
Broling also noted' that the
Neptune Beach case is still
being litigated, as Neptune has
asked for a review of the 11
Circuit ruling by the entire
panel. t
If the 11th Circuit decides
as a collective group to reverse
itself, they can still do that, and
that would affect Neptune
Beach, but it wouldn't,, affect
us because we're about to
change our ordinance
anyway," Broling said.
The new ordinance
specifically states it is not
intended to censor speech or
regulate' viewpoints, but to
regulate the adverse secondary
effects of signs related to
aesthetics and safety. Among
the long list of prohibited signs
are billboards. A 45-day time
frame for approving sign
permits would be established
under the new.ordinance.

Shakespeare
Festival
Do you know a monster
when you see one? Is it strange
looking and reeking of deadly
deeds, or can it have a fair face
and winning ways? Can it even
be funny?
Shakespeare's monsters run
the gamut from royalty to part
human. Meet them and explore
humanity's less worthy
behavior at Santa Fe
Community College's 10th
annual Shakespeare Festival
.Feb. 13-18.
"This thing of darkness I
acknowledge mine" ("The
Tempest" act 5, scene 3) is the
quote that sets the festival's
,theme. Prospero says these
words about Caliban, who is
half human. But does partial
humanity make Caliban a
monster?

WATSON
Continued from p. B .-
Aggie and her-husband of
69-plus years, Al Watson Sr.,
and their family, son Dr. Al
Watson Jr. and daughter Agnes
Green, donated $2.8 million to
construct an educational center
in Keystone and established a
$600,000 endowed scholarship'
that was matched by the state.
The Santa Fe Community
College Watson Center is
located on S.R. 21 between
Keystone and Melrose on a 42-
acre wooded site, .
While Aggie has not seen
the center due to advanced
stages of Alzheimer's, Al said
before she deteriorated, Aggie
iwas pleased--,With their.
donation.
, "She went to three different
schools in three years, and one
summer completed 'a degree in
education from the University
of Miami," said Al. It was
during that summer, Al and
Aggie met through' his'
fraternity brothers, while she
was attending the University of
Florida.
"Sometimes a person has.
either intelligence or wisdom.
She had both," said Al.
At the end of the summer
when Aggie left for Miami, Al
had an accident that put him in
the hospital "She wrote me
every day I was there," said
Al. "I realized she was a lady
who cared, so I invited her up
to homecoming."
He said he had read books
about how a man should. bend
down on one knee to propose
marriage,
"I couldn't handle that," he
said. "So I kind of asked, 'Will
you keep house for me?'
Aggie said, 'No, but I'll marry
you.'"
That's when their lifelong
teamwork began. Aggie and Al
have always been equal
partners.
"We worked together as a
team in business, in -our
spiritual lives and through our
charities," said Al.
In, the early years of their
marriage, Aggie substituted at
the elementary school in
Melrose.
"She made $5 a day," said,
Al. "She'd bring it back, I'd
buy more groceries and we'd
put some in savings."
In 1980, the Our Country
' Day committee asked Al to be
the grand marshal of the
Fourth of July parade. He said
he told them that he'd be a-
grand marshal only if Aggie
was included.

day, he walked out of
Wharton's gas station when he
saw Aggie sitting in, the ,car

asked her what she was doing.
"She said, 'I'm checking my
gas mileage,'" said Redfearn.
"I said, 'With a. big car like
that (a Lincoln": Town car

gas mileage?'." ',
Up until Saturday, there
were only four people

said.
"Now there are three: Uncle ,
AI, Lou Timmins and Gladys

people left (to talk about
Aggie)."
Al said Aggie was a
thoughtful, loving, caring and
patient woman.
"Above everything else, she

Open house planned for hunting proposal
An open house to gather
public input on a draft plan for
reopening the south post of
Camp Blanding for hunting is
scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 7.
from 6 30-8 30 p.m., at the
Clay County Fairgrounds.
2497 S R. 16 West. in Green
Co\e Springs.
The Camp Blanding Joint
Training Center and the Florida
Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission have created a
proposal that could reestablish
access to the south portion of
the post for hunting. Since
Sept. II. 2001, the lands in the
Camp Blanding Wildlife
Management Area lying south
of S R 16 have been closed by
jihe Department of Military
Affairs These lands. needed
for training exercises and troop
mobilization, are under tight
security that prohibits
recreational access under the
current hunting format.
While the closure resulted in
the loss of all recreational
access to the south post.
"hunting has been allowed in
traditional hunting areas on
north post," said Col. Ben
Nelson, Camp Blanding Joint
Training Center commander.
He said Florida Department of
Military Affairs and FWC
staffs have maintained
communications in an effort to
reopen the closed area.
"It is the intent of the Florida
National Guard to consider the
interests of our citizens while
also satisfying our state and
federal mission requirements.,"
Nelson said. "Our agency has
been proactive in formulating
this proposal which reflects the
Florida National Guard's
posture in being supportive of
the interests of our citizens."
According to Roland Garcia.
director of FWC's North
Central Region. based in Lake
CiiN. "Camp Blanding is still
under heightened force
protection and %will remain so
for the foreseeable future. This
makes it unacceptable for the
public and their equipment
(including dogs.) to encroach
on sensitive areas of the post.
including the artillery impact
area and the closed portion of
the post that lies south of S.R.
16 and west of D Avenue. For
this reason, it is necessary to
relocate the deer-dog hunting
area from its previous location
if we are to proceed with
reopening the south post."
The proposal to reopen the
south post for the 2006-07
hunting season would require
changes to 'rules and hunting
formats, including locations of
current still and dog hunt areas
and locations where special
quota hunts would take place.
The proposal provides for the
same types and amount of
hunting days that currently
exist for still hunting. ,while
adding the deer-dog hunting
format back into the hunting
scheme.
On Dec. 23, 2005,. FWC staff
mailed a "request for
comments" to approximately
1.050 individuals %who had
applied for quota permits for
the Camp Blanding WMA.
The purpose of the letter was to
request public comments on a
proposal to switch the dog and
still hunt areas. As of Jan. 18.
Commission staff had received
119 letters and e-mails: 90 175
percent) supported the
proposal, 9 (8 percent
supported the proposal but
suggested changes, and 20 (17
percent) did nIot support : the
proposal. Staff also received
two petitions, one with 27
signatures and another with 58
signatures, supporting : the
proposal.
The proposal and miap of the
'"area are available at:
my fwc.com/whatsnew/05/nort
hcentral/blanding.html.
"This plan retains all of the
current still-hunting
opportunities, reinstates deer-
, dog hunting. is acceptable to
FWC from a biological
perspective, is acceptable to
Camp Blanding from a security
perspective and reopens the
south post," Garcia said. "We
are fast-tracking the process for'
these changes so we can
pro\ ide the ne\w format for
net hunting season. If this
proposal is not acceptable to a,
- significant portion of our
constituents. FWC will need
additional time to rework the
proposal."
That would 'mean necessary
changes would not take place
in time for reopening the south
post for the 2006-07 hunting
season.
"We hope the hunters who
want to use the area will
support this proposal. We
strongly believe, this plan is in
the best interest of all
concerned parties, especially
the hunting community. All
comments and suggestions
received will be used by staff to
develop a final
recommendation," Garcia said.
FWC staff will present an
overview' of this. proposal&,to
- commiisioners eat the Febl,.'l,,
commission .,meeting in
Gainesville.
"We plan to .present staff's
final recommendation at the
April 5-6 commission meeting.
in Tallahassee. If changes are
adopted, they would become
effective July 1, 2006," Garcia
said.

From. the school bus, White
grabbed the fire extinguisher to
see if he could put out the

high, he said.
It was only when he got
closer to the tractor-trailer that
he saw the car.

SThe vigil opened with
approximately 70 members of
the youth group walking in and
placing flowers at the front of
the church. The flowers lay in
front of seven heart-shaped
flower arrangements. Each one
:had a child's name on it,
.including the cousins of the
,*Manns, Miranda Finn and
Ashley Keen.
When the children went to
lsit down in the first pews
:reserved for them, there were
not enough seats. People got
up and moved to the back of
the church without having to
be asked.
Fellowship's musical
'director Roy Singletary said no
immediate family could attend
.because it was too difficult for
:them at the time, but other
familyy members were present.
"[The children ate] going to
ibe missed immensely," he
Said.
He announced each child's
namee as a candle was lit in his
.or her memory.

"by Molly Lewis, Jessica

The tragedy of losing seven
grandchildren in the Jan. 25
traffic crash in Lake Butler
was apparently too much for
William Edwin Scott to take.
He died of a heart attack at the
age of 70 later that night.
Scott, whom everybody
knew as Ed, had a history of
heart problems, dating back
approximately 10 years, his
brother Bruce Scott said. Ed
Scott had open heart surgery
approximately five years ago.
"I guess' the stress' of (the
accident) just got to him,"
Bruce Scott said.
Bruce Scott remembered his
brother as a man who lived a
simple life and placed a high
importance on his family.
"His big thing in his life,
really,- was his family," Scott
said, "He made sure everyone
was taken care of."
Family included those who
were not blood relations as
well. Three of the children
killed in the accident were,
adopted and a fourth was in the
process of being adopted.
"He loved them just like
they were his own," Bruce
Scott said.
In fact, Ed Scott raised
several foster children, some
of whom he adopted.
Ed Scott, who was born in
Caryville, lived in Hawthorne
since 1958. He retired from the
Alachua County Road
Department as a heavy
equipment operator and served
as a deacon at Ochwilla
Baptist Church.
He is survived by one sister,

grandchildren and three great-
'grandchildren, along with his
wife, Katie.
Bruce Scott said he could
not imagine anyone else being
a better wife for his brother
thad Katie. He said it was rare
to see the two apart.
"Anywhere they went, you'd
see them together," Scott said.
It has certainly been a trying
time for the family to lose that
many members in such a short
span, but Scott said it has been
touching to experience the
support and outpouring of
emotion from those in the
community.
"It uplifts your spirit," Scott
said.

Larimer.
In phone interviews with
different employees of the
Union County School District

issued two statements on its
Web site following the Jan. 25

The first came on the day of
the accident from Jack Peetz,
the Executive Vice President
and Chief Operating Officer of
Crete, who's statement read:
"Our thoughts and prayer
are with those involved in this
accident and their families. We
are in the process of gathering
information, and at this point,'
we are unable to accurately
discuss the incident."
"We are very sorry' and
deeply saddened that this
tragedy has happened. We will
work diligently with the
appropriate authorities on the
investigation."
The second statement came
from Crete's president and
CEO, Tonn M. Ostergard, who
said:
"We wish to convey our
deepest sympathy to the
families and community of
Lake Butler as they mourn the
loss of their loved ones,"
"Since the accident, the
Mann and Scott families and
the families of those injured
have been in the constant
thoughts and prayers of my
family and all Crete Carrier

deeply about others and
particularly, what you are
going through."
"In our efforts to reach out
to the Mann and Scott families,
we have been able to speak
with their representatives, who
indicated the families' desire at
this time to grieve in private.
We fully understand and
appreciate this request for
privacy, and we intend to

A Nebraska man knows first
hand what it's like to be
looking in your rear-view
mirror and seeing a Crete
Carrier tractor-trailer barrelling
toward his car.
Don Lemke said he saw the.
story about the accident on
S.R. 121 on his local evening
news and knew then why he
was still living.
"They nearly killed me five
years ago," he said during a
phone interview from
Nebraska on Friday, Jan. 27.
Lemke said his heavy duty
pickup truck was rear-ended
by a Crete tractor-trailer when
he was slowing to make a turn
off of a highway on Oct. 10,
2001. He said he was using his
turn signal.
The driver of the tractor-
trailer hit him at full highway
speed, Lemke said, and there
was no braking until after the
point of impact.
He said the driver was cited
by law enforcement authorities
with reckless driving,, but yet
the company still refused to
pay for Lemke's injuries.
"I've been fighting this
company," he said of his
ongoing legal battle with
Crete.
Lemke said the company
had tried to force him into a
settlement, but he would not
agree to this.
The night before his
accident, a Crete tractor-trailer
driver had gotten into an
accident in his area, he said,
"There's something really
bad when they're consistently
in the top ... for crashes," he
said.
Lemke said that Crete has a
bad reputation in his state fof
hiring inexperienced drivers
and causing accidents.
"They're not paying
attention," he said. "They
don't care. They're mean;
they're nasty and politically
connected [in Nebraska]."
He survived his accident,
and his injuries were not life-
threateniuig.
"God let me live for a
reason," he said, but it was
only after watching the Mann
family accident on the news
that he knew why.
"These people (the Mann
and Scott families) need all the
help they can get," which is
the reason he said he wants to
tell his story.
(Note: This is Don Lemke's
account of what happened in
his accident. As of press time,
Crete Carrier Executive Vice
President and Chief Operating

counselors teamed up with
counselors from Bradford
County and the American Red
Cross to provide support to
students and teachers at the
three schools on Thursday,
Jan. 26.
Bradford County Middle
School guidance counselor
Cynthia Ross said, "It was a

She and the other
counselors, though, had to put
their feelings aside to help
students and other community
members deal with their pain.
"That staff over there (in
Union County) deserve all the
credit and the family, too,"
Ross said because the Union
counselors knew the students
personally.
She did not know the exact
number of counselors sent
from Bradford, but estimated
that it was approximately sii
counselors.
Counselors from Union and
Bradford helped at all three
schools. Each school had a
student die or get injured on
the school bus during the
accident.
One counselor remarked,
"The kids helped each other.
We were just there to interject

On Sunday night more than
1,000 people came to the
Union County High School
auditorium to pay their
respects to four children most
of them did not even know.
Th6 visitation, held for
Cynthia Nicole "Nikki" Mann,
Elizabeth Mann, Johnny Mann
and Heaven Mann, was a time
for people to say their,
goodbyes and tell family
members how sorry they were
for the family's loss. The line
of, those waiting to pay their
respects stretched around the
auditorium and out the front
doors ofthe high school.
At the front of the
auditorium, four white caskets
sat. One of the four was a
smaller size for Heaven.
Behind each was a collage of
pictures that showed happy
times from each child's life.
Johnny's collage was
wrapped in the colors of the
University of Miami, his
favorite team,. Elizabeth's was
wrapped in University of
Florida colors because of her
affection for the Gators. Both
Johnny's and Elizabeth's
flowers, that adorned the top of
their caskets, were of their
favorite teams' colors as well.
As mourners filed past, they
would stop to look at pictures
and point out specific ones.
Many stopped to hug either
Barbara or Terry Mann or
both. It was clear that- most
children in attendance knew at
least one of the deceased.
A slide show presentation
also showed some the
children's happier times.
Pictures of all four children
showed smiling faces and
playful moments.
Bible versus in the
presentation told about
children in Heaven. Brad,
Paisley's. "When I Get Where
I'm Going" featuring Dolly
Parton and Holly Dunn's
"Daddy's Hands" were the
background music for the
presentation.
At the entrance of the high
school, four guest books lay on
a table. Each book had a
picture of one of the four
children behind it. A bulletin
handed out had a picture on the
cover of Jesus surrounded by
children. A poem inside told of
' God's promise for life.
Outside the building, the
weather seemed to be tuned
into the feelings of the family.
It was a gray and dismal night.
A light rain shower fell. No
stars could be seen and the sky
was absent of natural light.
Ohn stage with the other
pictures, a picture of the
children's grandfather sat
alone. The photo was in honor
of William Edward Scott, 70,
of Hawthorne.
Scott was at the family's
home when they learned of the
accident. Several hours later he
suffered a heart attack and
died. He was buried Jan. 31 in
Hawthorne at the Ochwilla
cemetery.
The funerals of Ashley Keen
and Miranda Finn, cousins of
the Mann children, were held
Feb.1 at Ochwilla Baptist
Church. A memorial"service is
being held today for 20-month
old Anthony Lamb. Services
will take place today at 11 a.m.
at Archer Funeral Home in

would have been, finalized.

Funeral for 4 in accident held Jan. 30
, BY JAMES REDMOND
i Times SiaJ) It rier
A funeral held for four of the
seven children killed in
Wednesday's accident gave
mourners a small glimpse into
their lives.
As those coming to pay their
respects entered First Christian
Church, they encountered four
separate collages of pictures.
Each contained photographs
from happy moments in each
child's life. Those four
children were Cynthia Nicole
"Nikki" Mann, Elizabeth'
Mann, Johnny Mann and
Heaven Mann.
At the front of the church,
the white caskets with gold'
trim formed an arc around the
church's altar. Multiple flower
arrangements surrounded all
four caskets. '
The Union County Sheriff's
Office estimates that more than
400 people crowded into the
church.
"Arld that does not include
those:who filled the fellowship
hall," said Union County
Sheriff Jerry Whitehead.
The church set up a closed-
circuit television feed to the
hall to allow those not able to
get into the church to at least
view the ceremony. Even with
two buildings, it was still
standing room only when the
service began.
The Rev. Scott Fisher of the
Church of Christ and Dr.
Harold Hudson of Fellowship
Baptist Church of Raiford
' officiated over the ceremony..
"We who are here today are
going to go through days and
years of difficulties," Fisher
told those gathered. "But these
children now reside in
Heaven."
The children's choir from
Fellowship Baptist, made up of
more than 40 chilJdren, opened
the ceremony with a pair of
, hymns. Each one held a single
flov.er. .
',A slide show presentation
also brought to life moments in
the Mann children's lives. The
pictures showed various times
from their short lives. In eah,
every child had a smile on
their face. It was clear the
presentation affected family
members. By the end of the
presentation, several were
weeping, trying to hold
themselves up.
After the presentation,
Fisher attempted to ease the
pain of those in attendance.
"Our message is not to Nikki
or Elizabeth or Johnny or
Heaven," Fisher said. "This
message'is for you. Jesus has
received these children. They
are in Heaven."
"The message to you is, look
to him for strength. Our
community is strong. We will
heal."
As four hearses were loaded
to take the children to their
final resting place, those
around the church stood still,
paying their respects one last
time. Several young adults
were overcome with grief
watching the sight. Out loud
they asked, "Why, these
children, why?"
The procession to Mt. Zion
Cemetery -was, by some
estimates, more than a mile
long. Under a gray sky, that
seemed to fit the day, Fisher
spoke as family and friends
said their last goodbyes to the
children.
"These children have moved
out of a small house filled with
love into a bigger house filled
with even more love," Fisher
said.
The ceremony concluded
with family members placing
butterflies on the flower
arrangements that laid on the-
top of each of the caskets.

"He loved to help my father
pass out the church bulletins,"
he said. "He spent time getting
to know God and dedicating
his life to following Him."
He even spoke about
Heaven, who was only 3 years
old.i
"She often sat with us in the
youth group during our
services ... Her smiling face
was a joy to everyone, and I
loved holding her on my lap
and playing with her."
"Anthony wasn't quite 2
years old," Griffis said, "but he
was always such a good baby.
He played well with other
children and never caused a
problem."
Choking through tears
during his entire speech,
Griffis said he looked forward
to when he would spend time
with all of the children forever
in Heaven.
Wanda Lewis and Jeff
Gainey also shared their
memories of the Mann family.
Lewis recalled how Johnny
loved the University of Miami
football team. She called Nikki
"my Nick-Nick" and
remembered how they played
bingo together.
She said she went out to
scene of the accident and
picked up a sippy cup she
recognized as one of the
children's.
Gainey said Nikki was
always the, first to try things. In
Sunday school, she would be
the first to volunteer to role
play.
At one youth gathering, they
bobbed for apples.
He said when all the
children were reluctant to get
wet, Nikki was the first one to
go. She dunked her whole head
in and came back with an
apple, and that was her apple,
he said.
About Johnny, Gainey said,
"He told me one time 'I'm
going to be a great NFL
quarterback.' When I get up
there, I going to play with
Johnny. I'm going to let him
be quarterback."
Many of the church
members said they saw Liz,
Johnny and Nikki devote their
lives to Christ.
The Rev. Harold Hudson
said, "They went to be with
Jesus."
"I know there had to be at
least seven angels on Highway
121 because seven of God's
people were about to go
home," he said.
Hudson asked those at the
vigil if it would make them
feel better to say the Manns
had gone on a long trip, and
they would not be back for a
while.
"Well, they've gone on a
long trip ... you can see them
again," he said.
"The wisest thing you can
do tonight is to open up your
hearts, and let Jesus come in."

Starke church celebrates 2 special birthdays
BY CLIFF SMELLEY

When Louie Belle Carter
Parks celebrated her birthday
in January 1996, she thought at
the time that it would be the
last birthday she would
celebrate.
Ten years later, however,
Parks was honored with a
luncheon at her church, First
Baptist in Starke, two days
prior to her 100th birthday.
Parks, who turned 100 on
Jan. 31, was amazed at- the
attention she received, which
included receiving
proclamations on behalf of the
commissions of Bradford
County and the city of Starke,
as well as from Dr. Rodney
Coe, the pastor at First Baptist,
where she has been a member
since June 28, 1992.
"My gracious," Parks said
following the conclusion of the
luncheon. "I've been
entertained before, but this was
the largest (celebration), I
think."
Quite a
catch...
Oliver Crum Sr.
of Starke had
quite a
productive day
fishing recently,
catching these
bass off of
shiners at
Sanford Lake.
The largest
bass tipped the
scales at 9.6
pounds.
Parks admitted it's hard to
believe she's 100. She said she,
doesn't feel that old. In fact,
she said she remains active,
whether it's cooking, working.
in the Nard or doing Whatever
else comes to mind.
She was driving up until last
year, and she gave that up
voluntarily.
"Age and traffic," Parks
replied, when asked why she
gave up getting behind the
wheel of an automobile.
Many friends of Parks'
attended the luncheon, one of
whom was Dolly Spires, who
celebrated her 99t birthday
Jan. 30.
Spires, who was recognized
prior to lunch being served,
has not .been able to. attend
church at First Baptist for
more than a year because of
health issues, but she, like
Parks, still manages to keep
herself busy. She enjoys
crocheting, knitting and
putting together jigsaw
puzzles.
S"When I get kind of tired of
the sewing, I sit at the card
table and do a puzzle," Spires
said. ;
Spires said she comes' from a
family of seven children-flve
of which lied into their 9s.
1 "think that's pretti.good."
she said. "'
Following lunch,,, Terry
Blakeslee, the minister *olt
education administration 'at
First Baptist, spoke to the
gathering about all of tihe
events that have taken place
during Parks' litfeinpe.
Kelloggs began selling corn
flakes the )ear she was bqrn
and "back when -ou were 9ist
a teenager, women eyqre
granted the right to vote,"
Blakeslee said.
In response to Blakeslee
saying that talking movs
were invented before she Uas
20, Parks said she went ito
'Jacksonville to see'her first
movie. She said she believed it
was a movie that starred Al
Jolson.
S"Was it 'The Jazz Singer?'"
Blakeslee asked.
"Yes,' Parks replied.
"That was the very first
talking movie," Blakeslee said.
Blakeslee shared that Ford
introduced the Model T in
190(8. Park-' iaid4ier father
bought one of the first cars in
the area in 1914. He paid
approximately $500 for it.
That prompted Starke Mayor
Steve Futch, when he took the
podium, to quip, "Miss Parks,
we decided at our table that
most of uis have paid $500 for
a car, too, but that's every
month."
Futch presented Parks with a
framed proclamation in which
Jan. 29, 2006, was termed
"Louie Belle Parks Day" in

Indians win third straw
district championship
BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
During the previous two
seasons, the Keystone Heights
boys soccer team lost no
district matches en route to
winning two. district
championships. This year, the
Indianis dropped two district
'matches during the regular
season.
This year's team was ready
for the challenge that awaited
it in the District 5-3A
tournament. The Indians
avenged an earlier 5-0 loss to
Pierson Taylor by defeating
the Wildcats in the semifinals,
then defeated top seed
Crescent City 1-0 on its homb
field,to win their third straight
district title.
Keystone head coach Treyor
Waters could not contain his
excitement following the win
over what he termed an
"awesome" Crescent 'City
team. He credited the hard
work put forth in practice by
his team in recent weeks.
I've been working on them
all year to be aggressive,"
Waters said. "They've got
some skill and a little bit of
speed, but they decided that
they would start to work hard
to be aggressive. I think-that
was the key, the
aggressiveness."
Keystone (919-6) will now
host District 6 runner-up
Mount Dora (4-8-4) in a
Region 2 quarterfinal match
Thursday, Feb. 2, at 7 p.m.
The winner of that match
will then play .either Winter
Park Trinity Prep or Lakeland
McKeel in the regional
semifinals Tuesday, Feb. 7.
Keystone, if it advances,
would host either opponent.
Crescent City (4-7-4) will
travel to Ocala to play Trinity
Catholic (12-8-2) in a regional
quarterfinal match.
Keystone and Crescent City
battled to a scoreless tie in the
first half, though the Indians
