How many tomatoes have you

been offered at work Enough to supply your churchrsquos upcom-ing spaghetti sup-per

At my work these days there is always a nice collection of veggies in the breakroom And by the mailboxes And by the other mailboxes You get the picture

And they keep coming tucked under the arms of workers or toted in via plastic shopping bags People bring them to share eager to help others enjoy fresh produce

Therersquos a sense of pride involved and rightly so These veg-etable growers have done something momentous They have cre-ated food where before there was no food Before you giggle consider what needs to be done here First you need to plan What vegetables will you attempt What gear do you need Will you buy starts or start your own from seed

And thatrsquos just the beginning Vegetable growers mdash really growers of anything mdash need to make a commitment These folks need to commit to that plant to tend it through the season watering as needed weeding as needed protecting from vermin as needed Mid May to mid August does not simply go by in the wink of an eye Every day that plant needs something from you to be truly productive

And letrsquos face it Not everyone has such a maternalistic nature I am always terribly excited about spring when it comes eager

to get to the garden center and plant some annuals I especially enjoy containers mdash I have two large pots and several other smaller ones scattered around the house This year I tried my luck with a tomato plant a bell pepper plant and some Greek oregano in addition to the usual flowers

The tomato Toast The pepper The fruits are so tiny theyrsquore about worthless The Greek oregano is the only thing that really made it and at one particularly hot stretch this summer I thought it was a goner for sure I love the process but it seems like something always goes wrong (That usually involves me doing something dumb like skipping the watering can when they really need a drink My mother who has the greenest of green thumbs shakes her head in dismay)

Growing vegetables does not come easy to me so I look for-ward to opportunities to buy fresh locally grown goods The many farmers markets in the area fit my needs perfectly mdash and the needs of many others See this monthrsquos cover story to read more about farmers markets how they work and where theyrsquore located if yoursquove never made a visit

And you can sleep at night knowing that zucchini rode but a few miles from field to plate instead of something grown good-ness knows where That makes that zucchini bread you made taste just that much better

On my mind

If yoursquore a woman who owns a business yoursquove got plenty of company In fact women own more than 10 million US companies and women-owned businesses account for about

40 percent of all privately held firms in the US according to the Center for Womenrsquos Business Research Clearly the good news is that women like you are entering the small-business arena at a rapid pace The not-so-good news is that you may be facing a retirement savings gap in comparison to male business owners

According to the US Small Business Administrationrsquos Office of Advocacy 194 percent of male business owners have 401(k) or similar plans compared with just 155 percent of women owners

The percentage of female business owners with Individual Retirement Accounts is about the same as that of male business owners mdash but the men have more money in their accounts The average womanrsquos IRA balance is about $51000 compared with $91000 for men according to a recent report by the Employee Benefit Research Institute Although these figures change con-stantly with the ebbs and flow of the market the difference between the genders remains significant

Women should set up a retirement plan for your business But for many women business owners the perceived cost of setting

up and running a retirement plan has been an obstacle However the retirement plan market has opened up for small business owners over the past several years

Owner-only 401(k) mdash This plan is available to self-employed individuals and business owners with no full-time employees other than themselves or a spouse You may even be able to choose a Roth option for your 401(k)

SEP IRA mdash If you have just a few employees or are self-employed with no employees you may want to consider this Yoursquoll fund the plan with tax-deductible contributions and you must cover all eligible employees

Solo defined benefit plan mdash This plan has high contribution lim-its and your contributions are typically tax-deductible

SIMPLE IRA mdash A SIMPLE IRA as its name suggests is easy to set up and maintain and it can be a good plan if your business has fewer than 10 employees

As a business owner you spend a lot of time thinking about what needs to be done today but you donrsquot want to forget about tomorrow mdash so consider putting a retirement plan to work for you soon

Roasted red pepper and apricot relishPhoto courtesy of CIA

Relish summer all winter long

Courtesy of CIA

We wait all winter anxious to savor the fresh flavors of sum-merrsquos harvest It doesnrsquot get any better than delighting in fresh fruit and produce picked straight out of the garden

or from local farm stands With so much being harvested at once you canrsquot help thinking how wonderful it would be if we were able to have some of summerrsquos bounty to enjoy in the dead of winter

The chefs at the CIA suggest you set yourself up for winter this year by taking a little time to put up some of your favorite things by making relish with them According to The Encyclopedia of American Food and Drink the word relish first appeared in English in 1798

from the Middle English for a ldquotasterdquo and is derived from the French word reles ldquosomething remainingrdquo In the United States we refer to many relishes that are pickle-based but our ancestors also realized that a good way to use up the wealth of fruits and vegeta-bles available in summer was to put them up in jars of relish

ldquoAllow your washed jars to come up to room temperature before placing them in boiling water to sanitize so you donrsquot risk cracking the glassrdquo says CIA Chef Dwayne LiPuma ldquoWhen you take them out be mindful not to place them on a cold surface place them on a towel to keep them saferdquo

The flavor and color combinations in this vibrant Roasted Red Pepper and Apricot Relish are so wonderful yoursquoll want to double the recipe and have plenty on hand to spread on whole wheat crackers or to liven up a simple roast turkey sandwich as the weather turns cold and snowy

Sterilizing Jars for PreservingYou will need a pot deep enough to hold the tallest jar you plan

to use with another 3 to 4 inches of space between the top of the jar and the top of the pot

Clean the jars lids and rings well with hot soapy water and rinse well in hot water

Put the pot on a burner and place a canning rack or folded towel in the bottom of the pot

Fill the jars with hot water and put them in the pot (they should sit steadily on the rack or towel and should not touch each other) Add enough additional hot water to cover the jars by 1 inch Add the lids to the pot you can also add the rings if desired

Bring the water to a boil over high heat After it reaches a boil continue to boil for 10 minutes longer

Use canning tongs to lift the jars out of the hot water pour out the water and set them on a flat towel-lined surface Remove the lids and rings and put them on the towel too The jars are ready to fill

It is important to fill the jars when the jars are still hot Do not overfill the jars Fill to the top of the first ring from the bottom

Use the same pot you used to sterilize the jars add the rack or a folded towel as before and put the pot on a burner Put the filled and sealed jars into the pot (If the jars are small and might bang against each other as you process them in boiling water you may want to wrap a cloth around each jar to keep them safe) Add enough hot water to completely cover the jars

Bring the water to a boil and boil the relish for 10 minutes (the time will vary for other recipes depending upon the ingredient you are processing refer to your recipe) Turn off the heat under the pot Let the jars cool in the hot water bath for 1 hour Lift the jars from the water with canning tongs and set them on a towel-lined counter

Check the seals to be sure that they are tight Leave the jars undisturbed As they cool you should hear a pop as a vacuum seal forms If a jar doesnrsquot seal keep it refrigerated and try to eat is within a week

The following recipe has been adapted from The Culinary Insti-tute of Americarsquos Vegetables cookbook (2007 Lebhar Friedman) which is available at bookstores nationwide or at wwwciaprochefcomfbibookshtml

Roasted Red Pepper and Apricot RelishMakes 2 cups1 tablespoon olive oil 12 cup minced red onions 12 teaspoon minced garlic 34 cup minced roasted red bell peppers 14 cup minced dried apricots 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar plus as needed 1 teaspoon honey mustard 2 to 3 drops hot sauce as needed Salt and pepper as needed 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley Heat a sauteacute pan over medium heat Add the oil and heat until

Letrsquos reminisceEvery Wednesday is a blast from the past

in The Lima News

Out of all the players Jim Martz scouted in his 30-plus years as a Major League talent evaluator the one that he had to travel the shortest distance to see is the subject

of this and next monthrsquos installments Thatrsquos because Brad Kom-minsk was arguably the best athlete ever to come out of Shawnee High School

Martz who is equipped with a terrific memory for detail remembers Brad vividly and still keeps in touch today When I asked Jim when he first became aware of Brad Komminsk as a baseball player dur-ing a career spent on the roads beat-ing the bushes for baseball players he

recounted how that occurredldquoIn April of 1976 upon returning home from a long road trip

when my concentration was on high school and college players my son Mick a freshman at Bath told me there was a freshman at Shawnee I should check out Of course he was referring to Brad so I attended Bradrsquos next game and was absolutely floored by what I saw

ldquoAt just 14 years old Brad Komminsk was the second-most impressive a prospect at that age as I saw in my 32 years evaluat-ing talent for Major League Baseball The only one I ever saw bet-ter at a comparable age was Ken Griffey Jr who you might say had a little success later at the Major League level that is if over 600 career homers is any barometer to measure success

ldquoThere are those in Lima who may not remember just how good Komminsk was at such a young age but I had a gut feeling that I was looking at a five-tool player meaning he had what scouts call ldquoplusrdquo ability to hit for average hit for power steal bases field his position and throw wellrdquo

As Komminskrsquos high career continued Martz saw him as a first-round pick in Major League Baseballrsquos amateur draft after his high school graduation and someone who had legitimate star potential

Recalls Martz ldquoThe first time I saw Brad I spoke with him after the game I told him a lot of things and among them was the importance of taking batting practice correctly and the impor-tance of running out every ground ball eve if it was hit back to the pitcher and he fielded it

Part 1

Jim Martz with Brad Komminsk June 1979 Komminsk just 18 years old had just signed with the Atlanta Braves and selected in baseballs draft as the fourth player taken in the entire country

By John Grindrod

ldquoI remember I only had to tell him something once and hersquod work diligently on it He improved his home-to-first speed from 44 seconds consid-ered below average for a Major League prospect to 41 seconds which is considered very good Many lsquoroutine outsrsquo became infield hits and many singles became doubles and doubles became triplesrdquo

Martz also gave Komminsk some wooden bats and from that point on Komminsk used them exclusively throughout the rest of his amateur career despite the fact that aluminum certainly created harder hit balls and everyone else he was competing against was using aluminum Martz knew using wood instead of aluminum would ease his transition into pro ball

For the next few summers Martzrsquos son Mick and Komminsk played both against each other and for a while together on the same American Legion squad That meant Jim could not only see his own son play but could also track Komminskrsquos development as well In 1978 as 17-year-old juniors Mick and Bradrsquos Legion team advanced to the state tournament in Athens Ohio on the campus of Ohio University

Recalls Jim ldquoIrsquoll never forget one game Brad hit two home runs that both landed on top of the roof of a multi-story dorm way beyond the leftfield fence Both shots were in the 450-480 foot range and both were hit with one of those wooden bats I gave him

ldquoTo give you some idea of how impressive that was this was the same field that future hall of Famer Mike Schmidt played on and in his entire college career he put one of that dorm roof oncerdquo

By the time Brad was a senior in 1979 at Shawnee Martz began to fully appreciate just how gifted Komminsk was athletically

ldquoHe was an outstanding swimmer which is a sport that kind of flies under the radar so not a lot of people may remember that He was also a terrific running back on the football team and also a linebacker so good that Michigan offered him a scholarship to do battle with that team down south In basketball he often scored 25 to 30 a game and did it so effortlesslyrdquo

At that time in Martzrsquos scouting career Jim worked through the Major League Scouting Bureau which meant he didnrsquot scout for just one team So evaluations went out to every MLB team

Recalls the former scout ldquoI really worked hard promoting Brad in every possible manner Not only was he local but I got to know him so very well and he was just a terrific kid I thought he was that specialrdquo

As the June Major League draft got closer Martzrsquos phone rang much more frequently as he got calls from a variety of teamsrsquo gen-eral managers and scouting directors As a matter of fact to give you an idea of how clearly Komminsk could be detected the radar of teams Martz recalls the frenzy surrounding Bradrsquos final high school game against Elida

ldquoAll told there were 32 scouts including myself there and prob-ably another dozen scouting directors The Seattle Mariners alone which had the first pick in the first round had five scouts and also their scouting directorrdquo

With Martzrsquos help next month Irsquoll re-create for you how that final game went and what happened in the ensuing months and years as well in my final installment on Limarsquos baseball lifer Brad Komminsk

Microchips Bring Major Changes to Hearing Care

Chicago IL ndash The world is going wireless Phones function flawlessly without cords We surf the Internet from planes GPS devices give us street directions as we drive And now ndash thanks to advanced microchip technology ndash the hearing impaired can enjoy home entertainment and mobile phones with the same ease and flexibility as those with normal hearing

Wireless Transmission of SoundThe ability for hearing aids to receive sound sent wirelessly from the television stereo and computer is now a reality Hearing aid patients no longer need awkward necklace-style devices to receive wireless audio signals Individuals can listen ldquoprivatelyrdquo through their hearing instruments at the volume they prefer Others in the room enjoy a volume comfortable for them

The same microprocessor technology allows hearing aid wearers to enjoy hands-free use of cell and home phones By using a small Bluetoothtrade

accessory clipped to a shirt or automobile visor clear conversation is sent from the phone to both ears The phone can stay put away in a pocket or handbag during calls

Options For Noisy EnvironmentsAlong with enabling direct-to-ear-wireless communication microprocessors help hearing aid wearers more easily understand speech in noisy environments New techniques such as band-splitting and specialized sound classification facilitate more natural hearing in challenging environments Now instead of across-the-board amplification patients can prioritize important sounds such as speech while retaining auditory awareness of less critical sounds Patients can also choose to focus on speech exclusively

True Breakthrough in Hearing TechnologyThe new line of Beltone Truetrade hearing aids sends phone conversation and TV directly into hearing instruments while

letting users stay connected to their surroundings at the same time Beltone is the only manufacturer to utilize a robust 24 GHz wireless signal ndash which when coupled with the Truersquos advanced microprocessor ndash allows wireless transmission of sound up to 23 feet from entertainment devices The Beltone True hearing instrumentrsquos Spatial Directionalitytrade feature enables more natural hearing in noisy surroundings Using directional technology one ear focuses on speech while the other ear monitors sounds from around the individual Speech Spotter Protrade allows the user to focus on speech and tune-out background noise completely

we have so many unique things and every one of them is popular People enjoy everything from the produce to the garden artrdquo Bock-rath said

Echoing that sentiment is Kay Studer who along with her daughter Susan Studer King sells flowers from their organic flower business ldquoBuckeye Bloomsrdquo in the farmers market at the Lima Mall

ldquoOur booth is always very very colorful and wersquove had people tell us that the bright colors draws them in as theyrsquore driving down Elida Roadrdquo Studer said

Naturally the stock Studer offers changes from season to seasonldquoWe have people who go crazy over the Celosia because itrsquos big

and powerful looking in an arrangement Whenever I bring glads I have one lady who buys every one of them I guess though the main backbone of our sales is still zinnias They have a long life and theyrsquore available in every colorrdquo Studer said

But itrsquos not just flowers that this gardening duo offers ldquoWersquove taken orders for parties and anniversaries and we always appreciate the businessrdquo Studer added

The farmerrsquos market sales fit well with the green lifestyle Studer and her daughter live mdash Susan with a green ethic and Kay with a green thumb

ldquoIrsquod rather buy local and buy fresh Itrsquos better that wayrdquo Studer saidBockrath agrees that the green lifestyle is popular at the marketsldquoPeople really love the concept of the farmersrsquo marketsrdquo Bockrath

said And the environmental green bleeds over into green of another sort thanks to the markets

ldquoAnother plus is that our local business owners see an upkick in their business on Saturday morningsrdquo Bockrath said

Rimer resident Jewelie Dunlap was born Oct 8 1951 in Lima to John and Jeneva Trask She has a sister and two brothers

ldquoWe lived in Columbus Grove near the swimming poolrdquo she saidAll through school Dunlap was in Brownies and then the Girl Scouts ldquoI was a Girl Scout up into my senior year of high schoolrdquo she said ldquoI have

always loved nature and enjoyed earning Girl Scout badges to sew on my sash My mother was a Girl Scout leaderrdquo

Besides participating in the Girl Scouts Dunlap enjoyed the outdoors collect-ing leaves and finding toads and frogs Today she is an avid bird watcher dog boarder and groomer and babysits for her grandchildren

ldquoI set my own schedule for the most partrdquo she said Her husband of 41 years Mike works at General Dynamics

About nine years ago Dunlap heard about an eaglersquos nest in St MarysldquoI decided to take my camera and spotting scope and went to find the nest

I was so interested in observing the eagles I drove to St Marys three times per day and all weekend When the eagle went back to its nest in the evening

it was if it was telling me it was okay to go back homerdquo she said

ldquoFor one year I prayed to God asking him to give me an eaglersquos nest near my homerdquo she said ldquoExactly one year from the day I first traveled to St Marys I was driving down Route 12 on my way to The Creamery with a friend when an eagle flew over-headrdquo

Dunlap said that eagle was making a nest about a mile from her home The county later laid stone for a pull-off area so people could watch the birds

ldquoToday there are three nests in Putnam County two in Findlay and one in Defiancerdquo Dunlap said She has also watched eagles in other parts of Ohio and Canada ldquoI will watch eagles until I dierdquo

Besides watching eagles Jewelie has purple martin houses her son raises quail and her hummingbird feeders are complete with perches She has bred and raised three litters of cocker spaniels with the goal in mind to improve the breed (health wise) rather than make money

ldquoI donrsquot feed my cocker spaniels dog foodrdquo Dunlap said explaining she mixes 2 cups chicken frac34 cup mixed vegetables and frac14 cup of rice

ldquoAround our rural property several varieties of birds including sparrows finches indigo buntings blue jays house wrens and downy woodpeckers can be spotted but they call me the Eagle Ladyrdquo Dunlap said An eagle mural painted on Jewelies

A quick wit remarkable talent and faithful family man are all terms that describe 88-year-old Harold Beckett The rural Allen County resident has spent his life shar-

ing his musical gift with the local community Yet now his days are consumed with caring for the love of his life wife Nita 86 who has Alzheimerrsquos disease

This past July Harold stepped down from his role as the can-tor at Limarsquos Temple Beth Israel-Shaare Zedek He had served the Jewish congregation there for almost six decades despite the fact that he is not Jewish It all began in the early 1950s

while he was a young music teacher at Shawnee schools with a growing family and needed to supplement his income

He was also a choir director at Limarsquos St Mark Methodist Church and later at Grace United Methodist Church but still his sal-ary wouldnrsquot stretch far enough Thatrsquos when the organist that served at both Grace UMC and at the Jewish Temple sug-gested that Beckett become a cantor

Later ldquoMr Beckettrdquo as he is known to the thousands of students who studied vocal music education with him during

his 32 years at Shawnee schools became the choir director at Shawnee United Methodist Church and finally at Limarsquos First Baptist Church

The gifted vocalist who sang with symphony orchestras and in musical productions feels that ldquohellip there is a time to sing and a time when you should stoprdquo Possessing a Masters degree in vocal pedagogy he maintains that ldquoSo many muscles have to work in

coordination in order for a voice to sound goodrdquoBesides Harold Beckett is busy spending time with

his wife who has been a resident of Spencervillersquos Roselawn Manor for the last five years

ldquoI always hug her and kiss her and talk to her and take her for a ride and feed her lunch and supperrdquo he said The ldquoriderdquo consists of pushing his spousersquos wheelchair around the grounds of the nursing facility

ldquoShe canrsquot even say a word now canrsquot walk canrsquot talk She had such a mindrdquo he said wistfully

In 1943 the couple first met in his native Columbus during Beckettrsquos sophomore year at The Ohio State University He was working at a grocery store when

a then young Nita walked in with her mother Instantly infatuated Harold asked a co-worker to ldquoLet me wait on herrdquo Soon he asked Nita for a date

This happened in the midst of World War II when Beckettrsquos schooling was interrupted by his becoming a soldier The couple continued to date but with the prospect of an overseas inva-sion looming ldquohe thought therersquos no point in making any plans I told her hellip she should start going out without someone elserdquo he said

However the slightly built senior did survive his tour in the Euro-pean Theater He even became a commissioned officer obtaining the rank of second lieutenant When he returned home ldquofriends would fix him uprdquo but he had already given his heart away to Nita A friend suggested that he call her but Harold didnrsquot think she would have anything to do with him since he had broken up with her But she accepted his invitation

ldquoAfter a three year separation I didnrsquot want to lose her this timerdquo he said The couple married Aug 30 1947 ldquoWhat a wonderful choice She was the worldrsquos champion wife I was always doing something in music that took me away from homerdquo

But she kept the home fires burning raising their two sons Tom and Jeff

About 15 years ago Nita first exhibited symptoms of Alzheimerrsquos In 1996 this prompted Beckett to resign from his job at Ohio Northern University where he taught voice for a decade following retirement from Shawnee

ldquoI felt I had to be with her she was always with me when I needed herrdquo he said Son Tom moved back from California to assist his father in keeping his mother at home Sadly Harold suffered a heart attack and nearly lost his own health during his years of caretaking

In addition Nitarsquos disease progressed causing her to need more care than her family could provide Harold made the difficult deci-sion to place her in Roselawn Manor

ldquoI never cried so much in my life eventually I got over itrdquo he said

He praises the staff there saying ldquoWhat I thought was horrible place to go has been a lifesaving and wonderful place for herrdquo

Now the silver-haired woman who once grew beautiful flower gardens no longer communicates with the outside world Her dedi-cated husband believes she recognizes him but even if she doesnrsquot 64 years ago he vowed to be with his bride until the end A prom-ise that Harold Beckett intends to keep

No trip to Ireland would be complete unless you experience the Ring of Kerry the winding route that takes you along the Iveragh Peninsula and through the quaint small towns dotting the landscape Itrsquos a route that exposes you to

beautiful views of mountains coastlines and of course the Atlantic OceanAfter another bountiful Irish breakfast which was part of my Trafalgar Tours pack-

age each day of my week-long journey my travel partner Jane and I boarded the bus to start The Ring The rain from the previous evening had ceased and the sun broke through But since the winds were strong the day would certainly call for a hat and jacket despite the fact that the temperature had climbed into the mid-50s

Our tour bus went through towns with names like Killgorglin Glenbeigh and Cahir-siveen One of our day stops was in Waterville a fishing village that really provided wonderful views of the Atlantic and a place that famed comedian Charlie Chaplin once lived Our tour guide Bernard told us that several of Chaplinrsquos descendents have remained in the area A Chaplain statute sits just off the road with a rock-strewn beach as a buffer between statue and the Atlantic As everyone clambered to get their turn to get a picture taken with the likeness of the Little Tramp I wondered just how

many had jumped in beside the derby-wearing statue over the years

Our lunch stop was at what many feel is Irelandrsquos best-known view a place called the Scarriff Inn in the town of Caherdaniel Itrsquos an area where the fog routinely settles and the eerily shrouded view I found so very atmospheric was that of Derrynane Harbour Not one of us failed to pull out our cameras for beautiful land-scape shots of this mysterious fog-shrouded natural beauty

During our stop while Jane enjoyed a bowl of Irish stew in the Inn I went on a mini camera excursion walking down a lane in search of other good angles to capture some of Irelandrsquos abun-dant natural beauty There were animals Irsquove spoken of in an ear-lier installment the ubiquitous sheep spray-painted in spots with bright blues reds and yellows as a humane way of branding them wandering the rocky terrain

Then it was back on the bus and on our way eventually through Sneem where our tour bus became the last albeit inadvertent entry in its St Patrickrsquos Day parade As Sneem-ites lined the street just behind the many outside venders that hoped to do well that day we crept along with townspeople taking pictures of us while we took pictures of them and laughing the entire time at our unexpected inclusion

Our final Ring of Kerry stop before returning to Killarney for our own opportunity to stand along a parade route to honor St Pat-rick was to take in the beauty of a an area known as Ladiesrsquo View a view which as one might imagine comes with a story

In the 1800s during a time Ireland was still a part of the United Kingdom Queen Victoria made a trip to Killarney to check this rather distant portion of her domain As was the custom the

Queenrsquos ladies in waiting had been sent ahead to ready her quarters However when they came upon a view that included what has become known as The Lakes of Killar-ney and the mountains that framed them they became so transfixed they tarried too long and the Queen caught up to them She was upset but only until she looked about and saw the view herself and promptly forgave them for their dereliction of duty

After many snaps of our camera shutters it was back into Killarney Town for the parade that was scheduled to commence at 2 pm and what a festive and colorful experience that turned out to be

In the parade there were no fewer than four St Patrickrsquos and several organizations representing a variety of inter-ests including kids and adults in rugby and hurling uni-forms Irish dancing troupes and bagpipe brigades

As I walked around the vibrant downtown area remem-bering the feeling of being a kid again as I watched the Irish school children reveling in their day of freedom in the middle of their school week I couldnrsquot help but think of how different it was from many of the downtown areas in towns of similar size back in The States where busi-nesses have abandoned downtown and fled to malls on the outskirts of town Such is not the case in Ireland

For quiet time we headed to St Mary Cathedral a mas-sive structure with a foundation stone reading 1842 actu-ally making it one of Irelandrsquos newer cathedrals Part of its rich history is it once served as a refuge for victims of the Great Potato Famine of 1845

Then it was back downtown for the pub portion of our day The liveliest and best music Jane and I found was at the Crock lsquoO Gold Pub The star of the group was a young man with rusty hair and wonderfully dexterous fingers which made the accordion come alive in a genre he called Celtic (pronounced with a hard c) Cajun He was accompanied by a mandolin player a guitarist and a mate playing the washboard and spoons The collective sound was a real treat and certainly made the Murphyrsquos Irish Stout taste

better Since we were in there before the group even set up we were delighted when they established their position no less than five feet away giving us the absolute best seats in the house

Later after a bit more fun in the Killarney Avenue Hotel pub after our meal this one of the four evening meals included in our Trafalgar Tour package it was time to rest We would be on the move again early the next morning for Day 6 a day that would include ferrying across the River Shannon and into County Clare to see the magnificent Cliffs of Moher before trekking to our over-night stop in the city of Limerick

Valentine Heil was born in Germany in 1863 In his early teens he was taught the art of stone cutting At age 18 he decided to come to America to find

work in that field Having no particular place in mind to settle he met some people on the ship who were headed to Cincinnati and decided to follow He couldnrsquot find work in his particular trade and so he worked in a butcher shop

While living there he met and married Rosa Beyer from Covington Ky and hearing of the growth in Lima he and his young bride came here in 1890 After looking around

he decided to open his own business Val bought a home on East Eureka Street at the southwest corner of South Jackson Street A two-story house with a large lot at the rear it became his business place as well with the stone stored at the rear of the house

Valentine had three brothers who followed him to Lima from Germany They were Daniel John and Otto All of them became involved in the business and were married

Unfortunately John died at the young age of 35 and Dan-iel at 45 They left behind a combined family of 10 children to carry on and they became a part of Valentinersquos business or started their own in other fields Otto married Labertha Bridge and had a family of eight

Valentinersquos stone business soon became a thriving one He was also in the contracting business and erected many of the Lima business blocks plus his stonework appeared on many others such as the YMCA Hotel Norval St Paul Lutheran Church and the Lima Electric Light building along with many private homes including the home of Henry

Deisel on West Cole StreetAs his stone business grew so did his ability to hand carve

the stone One of the still-standing projects is a pair of fero-cious looking lions that stand at each side of the front steps of Henry Deiselrsquos original home on Cole Street called the Col-onnade now owned by Rob Nelson and his family

Valentine and Rosa had a family of six children all of whom grew strong and healthy But tragedy struck the family on June 29 1909 when their two youngest boys were playing in the yard where an electric line had fallen They were both instantly electrocuted and Rosa barely escaped with her life when she tried to save them

Rosa Heil died in 1912 and the following year Valentine married Miss Betty Reiter 23 years his junior They had one son Frederick from whom many details of this story were told before his death in 2003 Valentine had also started a coal company and Fred tells of a time during the depression when local ldquoculpritsrdquo would sneak the coal out of the yard and roll it onto the railroad tracks The flat cars would run over it forcing it out on the opposite side where the thieves waited eagerly with their baskets to gather it and run off into the night

Through the years family and the German community were very close to Valentine or ldquoValrdquo as he was affectionately called He had a Cadillac touring car with two spare tires on the rear which he would wash and shine carefully and loan out for funerals and other special occasions when needed and young Fred would drive the car Fred told of the many community parties that would be held on the lawn of the family home with good food and drink and plenty of good wine

Soon after the stone business started to wane and Val went into the concrete business having one of the first concrete mixers in Lima

From there he started a new company which soon became a pav-ing company and here the tradition still is carried on today Carl the second son of Valentine Heil had two sons one of them Robert J or as he is known by a lot of Lima businesses ldquoRobrdquo Heil start-ing his own blacktopping business and is fondly remembered for his love of people and a great smile along with being a truly hon-est business man At his death in 2007 the business sense passed to his son Michael who runs his own paving company known as Lima Contracting Many a yard of blacktopping has been laid by this fam-ily

Valentine Heil died peacefully Jan 26 1935 at the age of 72 years leaving a trail of traditions that are still carried on

And now for the ladies for any time there is a lady of prominence involved in a family I must mention her and none deserve it more than Anita Heil Gallantine grandaughter of Valrsquos second child Carl Heil Her father Carl Jr has every right to speak proudly of her for Anita is now a Brigadier General in the US Air Force with a long list of commendations and an even longer list of her assignments during service

Bravo Anita and wow what a family Lima can be very proud

The lions carved by Valentine Heil are still guarding the Colonnade on Cole Street
