Cora and Noel Metteyspent an April week-end in a Haitian or-phanage.
They are the 11-and 9-year-old daughters of TimMettey, Matthew 25: Ministriespresident. They were there on ahumanitarian mission withtheir father and a few otherM25M volunteers. It was theirfirst international mission trip,but not their first mission.
“I was really little when Ifirst went,” said Cora, whodoesn’t remember if she was 6,7 or 8 on that first mission toWest Virginia.
“I was 5,” said Noel, “like in2011 or something like that.”
Cora is older and went toWest Virginia first, but bothserved on missions there. Nosurprise, after all, their grand-father Wendell Mettey is thefounder of Matthew 25: Minis-tries. They’re the third genera-tion of the Mettey family totravel internationally to deliverhumanitarian aid.
“It was exciting, but I wasnervous at the same time be-cause I didn’t know what itwould be like,” Cora said.
It was hot. The airport was along hallway with lots of win-dows, lots of people, and not a lotof doors. While they waited forthe rest of their group to gather
together, Noel watched throughall those windows as peopleboarded planes They made itthrough all the bag checks andthen it was time for their realjourney into Haiti.
“Maxime, which is a goodfriend of my dad that livesthere,” Cora said, “he came andgot us. We got on a bus and droveto Belfle, which is the hotelthey’re building.”
The hotel is being built byM25M to provide housing formissionary workers. It wastheir first stop. While there, Co-ra and Noel met 18-year-oldKentia and 20-year-old Naicatwo girls from the orphanagehelping to build the hotel.
“We helped get plants for thelandscaping because we need itto look really nice so people willwant to stay there,” Cora said.
Next stop was the orphanagediscovered by Matthew 25 vol-unteers following the earth-quake. It was in poor conditionthen. Girls and little boys werebeing neglected while the olderboys got better care. They’veimproved conditions there now.
“We finally have a nicerbuilding for the girls to be in,”Tim Mettey said. “It has been awork in progress. It’s finallygetting to the point where it’snicer for the kids.”
There are 200 kids of all agesfrom infant to 22 years-old.They always ask Mettey whenhis kids will come. Upon arrival,
they were immediately sur-rounded and swept away.
“There were all these littlekids just surrounding the bus,”Noel said. “You could barely getoff. They just wanted to hug youand hold you. These girls werejust rushing out of the orphan-age coming to see us.”
It was a weekend. Cora andNoel were there to play and tomake them happy. Cora broughtbouncy balls, hair ribbons andties from her classroom at Ma-son Intermediate School. Herclass also sent flash cards tohelp the kids learn English. No-el brought Frisbees, jumpropes, and 200 letters from stu-dents at Western Row Elemen-tary school.
“We played with the girls andthe boys and made them happy,”
Cora said. “It made me feel hap-py to know that I was makingthem happy.”
It wasn’t all play, they didsome work too. Cora and Noelhanded out sandwiches and spe-cial nutritious shakes afternearly emptying the shelves ofa local market. They gave awayeverything they brought. Atfirst there was some fightingover the Frisbees, but eventual-ly the kids, used to having tofight for anything, began toshare the gifts.
Cora said she was surprisedat how nice things were, andhow good the food was. They aterice and chicken while there. Itwasn’t all nice. She noticed theorphanage is not clean, there’slots of mud and rocks. Noel sawno computers, no electronics,
no shoes, and their feet whitewith dust. The bunk beds hadmats, not fluffy mattresses likeshe has at home. They do have abasketball hoop and they playsoccer. What’s the lesson?
“Be grateful for what youhave,” Cora said. “When youlook at them, and they don’thave that much stuff, you’relike ‘Wow; I have a lot more thanI thought I did.’”
On Sundays they go tochurch and read the Bible in awhite tent. During the week,school starts late morning andgoes into the afternoon. Theylearn English along with theirnative Creole. Most of the oldergirls understand English. Theyasked Cora and Noel a lot of

Indian Hill VillageCouncil has raised its wa-ter rates by 5 percent – thefirst hike since 2008.
The base water rate in-crease from $2.84 per 100cubic feet of water to$2.98 per 100 cubic feetwill take effect July 1.
It will affect not onlyIndian Hill residents, butsome residential and busi-nesses customers in eightsurrounding communi-ties.
Indian Hill City Man-ager Dina Minneci saidthe hike is needed to re-place infrastructure thathas been in service far be-yond its years.
“The increase will pro-vide some support to a 10-year capital and operatingplan,” Minneci said.
“The plan was evaluat-ed over several months by
council’s Water Worksand Finance committeesand will continue to beevaluated every year.”
Indian Hill WaterWorks has a total of 5,481customer accounts, serv-ing mostly residentialcustomers in the village,Camp Dennison, Cincin-nati, Columbia Township,Madeira, Milford, Mont-gomery, Remington andTerrace Park.
There are commercialcustomers in Camp Den-nison and Madeira.
Although residentshave seen larger water in-voices over the past sev-eral years, they were a re-sult of sewer-rate in-
creases implemented bythe Metropolitan SewerDistrict of Greater Cin-cinnati, Minneci said.
In related news, IndianHill Village Councilwom-an Melissa Cowan recent-ly reported to villagecouncil that the Environ-mental Protection Agen-cy has determined that In-dian Hill’s brine dis-charge system has no im-pact on the aquatic life ofthe Little Miami State andNational Scenic River.

GOSHEN TOWNSHIP —Old State Route 28, whichhas seen traffic increaseafter the recent closure ofstate Route 28 here for abridge replacement,should get some muchneeded improvementsthis summer.
Barrett Paving Materi-
als Inc. has a contract toresurface a number ofcounty roads starting July6, including a .67 mile sec-tion of Old State Route 28.Employees of the Cler-mont County engineer’soffice have said that worklikely will start after thebridge project on stateRoute 28 ends.
In the meantime, thecounty may authorize
some temporary repairs,or milling and patching, toOld State Route 28 be-cause of the roughness,said Ken “Woody” Wood-mansee, Clermont Countyroad superintendent.
Even though old StateRoute 28 isn’t an officialdetour for the state Route28 road work in GoshenTownship, many local res-idents have been using it
as an alternate route,township officials and po-lice say.
On June 1, the Ohio De-partment of Transporta-tion closed state Route 28just west of state Route132 in Goshen Township toreplace a bridge. That clo-sure is expected to lastabout 75 days.
“Have you driven (oldState Route 28)?” GoshenTownship Trustee LoisPappas-Swift asked offi-cials from the Ohio De-partment of Transporta-tion during a June 16meeting for an update onthe bridge project. “Yourback teeth about comeout.”
Old State Route 28 isnot a state road, nor is it aposted detour for the stateRoute 28 project, said Ja-son Haus, Clermont Coun-ty resident engineer forODOT.
“There’s nothing wecan say or do about old28,” Haus said. “If peopledecide to go that way,that’s the way they’re do-ing to go.”
Lt. Wayne Price of OhioHighway Patrol agreedthat Old State Route 28has seen more trafficsince the Ohio 28 bridgeclosure.
“I’ll say this about old28,” Price said. “We’reputting a lot more cars onold 28, but I’ll take a rattleon the dash to keep thespeeds down and keeppeople from doing some-thing stupid.”
On a related matter,ODOT officials agreed tolook into getting a tempor-ary signal at the intersec-tion of short 48 and stateRoute 28. The westbounddetour for the state Route28 project is sending traf-fic to state Route 132, thenshort state Route 48 to getback to state Route 28.
Goshen Township Po-lice Chief Rick Combssaid traffic on short 48 hasbeen stacking seven oreight cars deep in the af-ternoon since the stateRoute 28 closure, and he’sworried that a vehicle will
get T-boned as a drivertries to turn left onto stateRoute 28 during rushhour.
ODOT officials alsoagreed to look into town-ship officials’ concernsabout the crumblingshoulder on state Route132 that’s created a 7 to 10foot deep ditch in spots,and to consider rumblestrips on the bridge be-cause of pedestrian andbike traffic. Because oftraffic volume, Haus saidit isn’t feasible to do a sep-arate truck detour onstate Route 131, as hadpreviously been suggest-ed.
Largely because of thetime it takes to cure con-crete, Haus said thereisn’t much the contractorcan do to speed up thestate Route 28 bridge pro-ject that’s causing manyof Goshen’s traffic head-aches.

There were kids everywhere. That’s the way it seemed May 8 when 70 seventh-gradestudents from St. Columban School put into practice what they have heard preachedabout serving others in need in Loveland and beyond.
They served the elderly, the poor, the disabled, sick, injured, veterans, and even chil-dren by volunteering at places like Meadowbrook Care Center, Matthew 25: Ministries,Starfire, InReturn and CancerFree Kids.
At CancerFree Kids in Loveland 10 students showed up with two adult chaperones.They were greeted by Cindy Pilipovich, CancerFree Kids, who told the students allabout the organization and what they would be doing. Karys Whitehead said she learnedthey are a non-profit organization with a specific focus.
“They’re focused more on helping kids than having a nice office or nice furniture,”she said. “Every year they raise a bunch of money to help kids with cancer. At the end ofthe year, they give it all away. The next year they start all over again.”
On the day Karys and her classmates were there, they helped assemble care pack-ages with “Courage the Lion” which CancerFree Kids gives to children being treated forcancer at Children’s Hospital. It means a lot to Olivia Williams to know she’s helpingbring a smile to another kids day.
“These kids aren’t seeing a lot of joy in life because they have this illness,” said Wil-liams. “When they’re given these Courage Lions, it gives them the courage to fight onbecause they know people believe in them and support them. That gives them hope.They’re God’s children. We’re all related in God’s eyes, so that means a lot.”
Pilipovich calls them future philanthropists. Her own daughter was a student at St.Columban when she was diagnosed with cancer. She says it’s incredible to now see thesekids from St. Columban giving back.
“Its kids helping kids,” she said. “These kids are directly helping kids in the hospitalwho are fighting cancer.”

St. Columban studentsshare the gift of service
St. Columban School students Zach Brinks,Anna Belesi, and Ethan Reinsfeld sharedtheir service experience in their ownwords:Service for InReturn at Wetherington GolfCourseBy: Zach BrinksOn May 8, I went to Wetherington GolfCourse to help support InReturn who washaving a golf outing. At WetheringtonGolf Club, we demonstrated what theemployers at InReturn do every day, whichincludes sorting used Honda automobileparts, recycling them properly, and makingbrushes for white-out and nail polish. Theytold us how difficult their lives were be-cause they have brain injuries. So it mademe feel really guilty, even though I did notdo anything to them, I just feel like I takelife for granted a lot. Some of the high-lights of my day were going on a golf carttour of the golf course, talking to friendsand having whip contests, and meetingthe employers from InReturn who knewexactly what to do.St. Columban students have a heart forservice because we know that we areblessed and we know that God has thecalling for us to do service for those whoneed it. Our faith truly is the key to doingservice because we trust that we are doingthe right thing by helping others andmaking their lives easier. “My sheep hearmy voice and I know they follow me.”(John 10:27)Service at Saint Columban- MeadowbrookCare CenterBy: Anna BelesiTo some people service may seem like achore but, as the students at Saint Colum-ban School learned, service can actually beextremely fun. On Friday May 8 the stu-dents went and did service at a variety ofplaces like Matthew 25 Ministries, Mead-owbrook Care Center, Starfire, and CancerFree Kids.I decided to go to Meadowbrook which isa senior care center that ensures happinessand comfort to the elderly in the finalyears of their life. Some people may be alittle unsure about working with the elder-ly, but you will find they are very sweetconsiderate people. We got to play bal-loon volleyball, eat lunch with them andsimply talk to them.Seeing the smiles light up their faces madeevery minute worth it. One person eventold me, “Thank you for coming here tosee me, you made my day.”
I used to do service because it is what Jesuscalled me to do, but now I realize howmuch of an impact service work can haveon your life and the people you are help-ing. It feels good to follow in Jesus’ foot-steps with service work.Service at FreeStore FoodbankBy: Ethan ReinsfeldFree Store is a nonprofit organization thatreceives donations such as food, toiletriesand clothes to give to people who cannotafford them. The instructor told us whattheir mission is, how they do it, why weshould do it, and what we were going todo.After our talk we went into the back to anassembly line and we each were assignedjobs. We were packing everyday householditems into boxes and my job was boxingtoilet paper. Our goal was to get as muchboxes as we could. We broke the previousrecord set by school at 550 boxes.The boxes would go into trucks whichwould go to a certain place where peoplewould collect them. It was nice knowingthat we were a part of helping this cause.After packaging boxes we had lunch andplayed some games. Then we met outsideand discussed what we did. We discussedhow we were helping out, and what gooddeeds we were doing.I really enjoyed volunteering to help thosein need, it was very fun. I really enjoyeddoing this with my friends because weworked as a team. My favorite part of theday was when we went outside and re-flected on what we did. It is cool hearingabout what you have done and how youhelped especially when you are a part of it.Cindy Pilipovich of CancerFree Kidssummed up the students service as motherof a daughter who is a former St. Colum-ban student and surviving cancer.“These are the people who are going tocontinue to make a difference in thisworld,” said Pilipovich. “It’s a really greatopportunity for kids to really see how theycan help other kids. These kids can make adifference no matter what they do.”More about St. Columban School at:www.saintcolumbanschool.orgAbout the organizations served on Friday,May 8 by St. Columban School students:www.meadowbrookcare.orgwww.starfirecouncil.orgwww.inreturn.orgwww.m25m.orgwww.cancerfreekids.org

JULY 8, 2015 • LOVELAND HERALD • 7ANEWS
My garlic is “scaping,” not “escap-ing!” Scapes are the unopened flowerheads of hard neck garlic, which manyfolks used to discard so that the energyof the plant isn’t wasted in the flower.
Now chefs are usingthese flower heads insoups, sauces and saladsand alongside grilledveggies.
I am so pleased thatgarlic growing at homeis a popular trend. Lastyear at Mother EarthNews Fair I stopped bythe organic garlic ven-dor after my presenta-tion. The line was two
deep and very long. That was a goodbarometer as to how important growinggarlic at home has come to be.
My friend and colleague RobertaPaolo of Granny’s Garden has beengrowing garlic in the children’s gar-dens at Loveland Primary School foryears. Try using the milder tastinggarlic scapes instead of garlic cloves.
My research has shown that the besttime of day to harvest scapes is duringthe afternoon when the sun is hot. Thatway, the wound you create by cuttingoff the scapes will dry quicker and healbetter.
Now what about green garlic? Greengarlic looks like a green onion with aflat green stem. It has a white bulb. It’sactually an immature garlic plant witha subtle flavor. It’s good to use in sal-ads, vinaigrettes, pastas, sauces, pizzasand marinades.
Both scapes and green garlic areturning up at local farmers’ markets.

Garlic flowers lend subtle flavor to dishes
Grilled sausage penne with garlic scapes
I love this recipe. It’s so adaptable. Courtney Vonderhaar, aMount Washington reader, shared the original recipe using ajarred pasta sauce, minced garlic and rigatoni. Today I made itwith homemade sauce that I had made and frozen last winter andused garlic scapes instead of garlic cloves. Whether you go thehomemade route with garlic scapes or use a jarred pasta sauce andminced garlic, this is a dish that’s family friendly.
1 pound or so Italian sausage links (I used 8 oz. ea. mild andhot), grilled and sliced into coins
1 pound penne pasta, cooked3 tablespoons olive oil3 garlic scapes, cut up fine, or a teaspoon of minced garlicHalf of a small red onion, sliced thin (opt)2 red, yellow or orange bell peppers cut into stripsPasta sauce - I used about 4 cupsParmesan cheese
While pasta is cooking, sauté garlic in oil for 30 seconds, addpepper and onion, cook until tender, add sauce and sausage, heatuntil hot. Serve over pasta and sprinkle with Parmesan.
Brandied cherries with cloves and cinnamon
Now that sweet dark cherries are in season, I have beenmaking Mary Rudloff’s cherry bounce with whiskey and stringcandy. I know she is in heaven smiling and probably imbibing alittle, herself. I’m also trying this new recipe, which doesn’t haveto age for months like Mary’s. Unlike the cherry bounce, which is,medicinal (though it’s awfully good any time) brandied cherriesare a dessert treat.
11⁄4 cups water1 1⁄2 cups sugar2 whole cloves3” piece cinnamon stick4 cardamom pods4 cups sweet dark cherries, stemmed and pitted1⁄2 to 3⁄4 cup regular or cherry brandy or Cognac
Combine water, sugar and spices and bring to a simmer.After sugar dissolves, simmer about 5 minutes or so. Remove fromheat, add cherries and brandy and stir gently. Put lid on and letcool. Pour into glass jar and store in frig a week before eating.Keeps up to 3 months. Wonderful warm over ice cream.

time to the civilwar. Blackswere self-dep-recating; whiteswere arrogantlyanti-black. Heoften heard the‘N’ word beingused. “Therewas a feeling ofapartheid; I feltsmothered,” hesaid. He iswhite. He saidhe was veryglad to be backhome.
The gover-nor of South
Carolina refused to answer the “flag”question a reporter put to her. This initself reflects the present culture of theSouth, and many parts of this country.This culture of exclusion inspired that kidto kill those people. He would not havetaken this action had he not felt comfort-able that he was fully supported by hiswhite brothers. Someone had to incite himwith information that “blacks are takingover the country.” He did not come upwith this on his own. He is not that smart.
I cannot speak for the sons and daugh-ters of slaves that have to live in that big-oted cultural environment. What do theyfeel about that Confederate Flag beingflown, by state ordered legislation? Didyou know that it is illegal to fly the Con-federate Flag at half-staff in South Caroli-na?
So, should you take an inflammatoryracial and cultural symbol down from itspole? I believe the answer is quite obvious,Hell Yes! Take Them All Down Now!

Nazi flag
To my generation (WWII) the Nazi flag,represents everything that is wrong, ev-erything that is evil, and everything myfamily and this country fought against.
My Uncle Bob was shot climbing thehedgerows of Nazi Germany, fighting
against this flag. Nowherein Germany do they flythe flag of the 3rd Reich.Only in the United Statesis this flag sometimesseen, painted on barndoors or waving at a rallyof White Supremacists.
I continue to harborhatred for that flag. WhenI see it flying, I rememberthe horrors of Nazi Ger-many and WWII. My im-mediate thoughts are to
kill those who are parading this flag. Thisis what we were trained to do. It takesgreat discipline to suppress thosethoughts, realizing that the young men andwomen who espouse white supremacyhave no clue as to the nightmare they areabout to bring upon themselves and oth-ers. They are ignorant fools.
I do not feel the same about such flagsin a collection of military memorabilia.My uncles and other friends all had suchcollections, and occasionally we wouldwonder through the boxes of collectibleswondering about the stories of each souve-nir. Those old feelings only return whensuch flags are given life, by hate groups,who wish to keep alive the evils of exclu-sion, repression and slavery.
A friend visited Charleston, South Car-olina, on business about two years ago. Hecame back home and wrote to his Face-book friends in astonishment about theattitudes and language that he had heardduring his week in Charleston.
He said it was like stepping back in
South Carolina take downthis Confederate Flag!

Have you ever gotten “foodpoisoning” or know someonewho did? Think about your
family andfriends. Whogot sick? Howold were they?Did they everknow whatfood causedtheir foodpoisoning? Didthey ever findout what germcaused theirillness?
Althoughmany cases go undiagnosed,the CDC estimates that 9.4million cases of food-borneillness occur in the UnitedStates each year. Food-borneillness is an illness that comesfrom eating food contaminatedwith harmful pathogens - vi-
ruses, bacteria, or molds. Food-borne illness is preventable,which is why it is important tounderstand food safety to re-duce the risk of food-borneillness for you and thosearound you.
Three of the more commonfood-borne pathogens includeCampylobacter jejuni, Salmo-nella and Listeria monocyto-genes. Salmonella is the num-ber one cause of bacterial diar-rhea in the United States, whileCampylobacter jejuni is thesecond.
The bacteria Campylobac-ter jejuni is one the most com-mon causes of foodborne in-fection in the United States.The CDC estimates that thereare more than 800,000 cases ofcampylobacteriosis in the U.S.
OSU Extension ClermontCounty is recruiting volun-
teers for an Internet FoodSafety Research Study to learnabout foodborne illness, orwhat we call food poisoning,and what causes it - especiallyabout the bacteria, Campylo-bacter, or for short - campy.
The Ohio State University,OARDC campus is conductinga food safety research study todiscover effective ways toprovide educational informa-tion to parents of young chil-dren who are susceptible tofood-borne infection frombacteria called Campylobacter.These bacteria are commonlyfound in turkey and chickenproducts.
If the bacterium gets intothe home or public environ-ment because of poor san-itation, children could becomeinfected even if they haven’trecently eaten turkey or chick-
en. Parents need knowledgeabout how to kill the bacteriaand how to prevent their chil-dren from being exposed toCampylobacter in the environ-ment. This study will helpdetermine if the internet orsocial media are effective toolsto convey this critical informa-tion to parents of young chil-dren.
Volunteers must be 18 yearsor older and be the parents,grandparents, foster parents,or legal guardian of a youngchild or children ages one tonine who live in the home. Onlyone adult per household mayparticipate in this study andthis person should be the onewho selects and prepares thefood for the children in thehome.
Volunteers will be asked tocomplete a survey sent to them
by email at the beginning andend of the eight week study.Between the surveys, three ormore emails or texts per weekfor six weeks will be sent toeach volunteer with internetlinks to educational materialsfor them to read at their conve-nience. Study participants willbe paid $20 for their time.
To participate in the studyor to learn more about it con-tact Margaret Jenkins at 515-732-770 or [email protected] in the Cler-mont County Extension Office.

July 1 questionHow do you feel about removing
Confederate flags and other symbolsof the Confederacy? Are there anysteps you think should be consideredhere in Greater Cincinnati?
“I can’t believe it has taken thislong and such violent event for thisdebate and possible removal to oc-cur. I don’t recall any other war,where the losing side was allowed tocontinue to fly their flag, particular-ly in the land that was conquered. Tome it has always been akin to ifparts of Germany felt the desire tofly the swastika flag, claiming itwas about pride.
“You can try and spin it howeveryou want, but the flag is aboutsouthern heritage and one of the bigissues of southern heritage the flagrepresents is slavery and repres-sion of blacks in America. If a per-son is OK with it than they canchoose to fly it over their personalproperty, but it should not be associ-ated with any state that is part of ournow unified, federal government.
“I haven’t seen any flags in Cin-cinnati, except heading up I-71 to-wards Columbus there is a buildingwith the flag painted on the roof ofwhat appears to be a garage. Therereally is nothing that can be doneabout that it is there personal pri-vate property. The only thing it doesis that when my friends from North-ern Ohio come to visit they ask mehow something like that can still ex-ist in this day and age and it makesthis area seem like we have intoler-ant, backward thinking people, thathaven’t caught up to what era we’rein.”

“The same as I feel about it beingOK. to rewrite history, so nobodyfeels bad except those who werepart of it. I can’t imagine that the re-minder that this country fought it’sbloodiest war over the determina-tion that we are to be one nation,could be more appropriate in thisera of extreme division.
“The Confederate War Memorialwould certainly not be appropriatefor the display of the Stars andStripes. There seems to be a prolif-eration of Confederate Battle flagswith the Revolutionary War symbolof a striking rattler, ‘Don’t Tread onMe.’ This is not the direction I wouldlike to see us go, but emphasizes atrue need for uniting behind theprinciples espoused in our Declara-tion of Independence and Constitu-tion as definitely not expressions of‘hate’ or radicalism.
‘Divided We Fall’ and ‘E PluribusUnum’ are rallying points to remindus that we can learn from mistakes
and remain strong.”D.B.
“As far as I know, the War ofNorthern Aggression is long overand has been for quite some time.For those that still want to hold dearto their silly Confederate flags, gofigure, it is a free country. I am notaware that the deranged individualwho murdered all of those unfortu-nate people in the SC church wascarrying a Confederate flag. Whathe did is more than wrong and pureevil. But, to jump on this unfortu-nate incident as a cause to rid theworld of that flag seems a bit over-much, and very similar to the band-wagon to ban all guns that a lot ofpeople want to jump on after everysenseless school/church/workplaceshooting.
“Are there steps that should betaken in Greater Cincinnati? Sure,mind its own business and find waysto stop the current murder spree weare witnessing. Taking away a flagis not going to do this.”

“Because of what it represents tomany people and cultures the Con-federate Flags should not be dis-played on any government land inthe USA. So far as private propertythat is an individual’s prerogative.Slowly but surely some Southernstates are finally realizing this. GoFigure!”

“Did I miss something ? Whatdoes removing the ConfederateFlag have to do with the murders inCharleston or any where else?
“But if you are a brain dead liber-al, you might of been taught this wasa symbol of only slavery in ourschool systems. I believe the peoplethe South thought it might havingsomething to do with states rights.
“However, let's take this one stepfurther, how many ConfederateFlags are in south Chicago?
“Because there weren’t nine kill-ings in Chicago last week , their areniine killings in Chicago everyweek.
“It is ridiculous to think a flagcauses violence, unless again youare a brain dead liberal.”

It’s been 34 years since LynnThompson won the last of twoWomen’s Metropolitan Ama-teur Championship golf tourna-ments, but she keeps swingingfor a third while consistentlyranking among Ohio’s top ama-teurs.
Thompson, a 1976 LovelandHigh School graduate, wonback-to-back Cincinnati crownsin 1980-81. She’s been to threeWomen’s Metropolitan finalssince then. It’s been easier forThompson to win an NCAA indi-vidual golf title and a state sen-ior amateur crown than anothercity championship.
A study in perseverance
while becomingone of the area’sgreat ambassa-dors and advo-cates for golf,Thompson saidher inability tonail down anoth-er Women’s Mettitle is testament
to the caliber of competitionplaying on Greater Cincinnatigolf courses.
“There are a lot of reallygood golfers in our area,” shesaid. “I thought the Met was fan-tastic this year. We had all thosechampions, (two-time champi-on) Janie Klare came back, andit was an honor to have (runner-up) Fai Khamborn play in thetournament this year. Hanna
Lee did a great job winning. Iwas so proud.”
Thompson has understand-ably strong sentimental ties tothe Women’s Met. She made her38th tournament appearance atlast week’s 100th staging of theevent at Cincinnati CountryClub. Only Linda Coffey, with44, has more.
“It’s definitely part of myschedule,” Thompson said. “Ilook upon it as the most impor-tant event every year. I have areal love for the tournament.It’s been a big thing to me since Iwas young.”
Thompson, 57, remains com-petitive against players half herage. She once played for theLoveland boys’ golf team. Now,she vanquishes her peers.
Thompson won the Women’sOhio State Golf AssociationSenior Amateur at Catawba Is-land Club in June. She won herfourth Greater Cincinnati Wom-en’s Golf Association SeniorWomen’s Metropolitan Champi-onship last year, and is the two-time defending champion.
She’s won more than a dozenO’Bannon Creek Ladies ClubChampionships. As she did in1980 and ‘81, she representedO’Bannon Creek at the 100thplaying of the Women’s Met,and earned the 10th seed duringstroke-play qualifying. Shebowed out with a first-roundloss to fellow Met championAlex Carl. In the showdown of

Two of Cincinnati’s premiersoccer clubs — Kings Ham-mer and Cincinnati UnitedPremier — are headed back
to the U.S. Youth Soccer NationalChampionships July 21-26 in Tulsa,Okla., where both will attempt tobring home a national championship.
Cincinnati United Premier andKings Hammer have both been busyin July over the last five years on thepitch against the nation’s high-endsoccer competition.
This year, Cincinnati United,whose highest-level teams in each agegroup are referred to as CUP, quali-fied two boys’ teams and one girls’team to nationals. Kings Hammer,who’s top teams are known as KHA,advanced a pair of girls’ teams
Traveling to Oklahoma for CUP arethe U14 girls, coached by Bobby Pup-pione and Kim and Rob Scheper; U14boys, coached by John Michael Hay-den and U18 boys, coached by TerryNicholl. KHA is sending its U16 girls,coached by Chris Black, and U17 girls,coached by Tiffany Roberts.
Puppione, who’s also the CincinnatiUnited girls’ director of coaching,said CUP’s U18 boys were a nationalsemifinalist a year ago, and they’vequalified to nationals in three of thelast four years.
At nationals, there are eight teamsremaining in each age group, that thensplit into subgroups of four. Thosefour teams all play each other, and thetop two from each group advance tothe semifinals.
“They’re excited to be represent-ing our city, state and region,” saidPuppione. “It’s very impressive theamount of quality soccer players thiscity continues to produce. The entirestate has really embraced the game.”
KHA’s U17 won a regional champi-onship to advance to nationals, whileits U16 team qualified by finishingtop-two in the National League.
Roberts, who’s the girls’ executivedirector and also coaches three teamsfor Kings Hammer, said the KHAteams are both nervous and excited.KHA has a chance to avenge somelosses at nationals.
“In some cases, they’re excited toget a second chance at some teams,”Roberts said. “They know how toughthe level of competition is going tobe.”
In recent years, Cincinnati teamshave proven they can compete on thenational soccer stage. Roberts, who’sbeen coaching in Cincinnati for thelast six years, said the local talent hasbecome more organized, which hasproduced a higher level of play.
“Cincinnati soccer in the last fiveyears has taken a really good step,”Roberts said.

READING — When the phone first rang andthe caller identified themselves as beingfrom LaRosa’s Pizzeria, Lori Rapp was think-ing she just won free pizza.
As it turned out, the piewasn’t free, but the invitationto be inducted into the LaRo-sa’s High School Hall of Famewas an honor the formerMount Notre Dame diver andnow coach couldn’t ignore.
The 1988 MND grad (LoriRizzuto) was one of seven hon-ored June 28 at WCET-TV stu-dios for her diving efforts in
high school and college where she was an All-American at the University of Cincinnati.
“What a classy, amazing banquet,” Rappsaid of the festivities. “They just do such anice job. That’s been 27 years ago (since herMND diving days). It’s an amazing honor toinducted with that group.”
As a coach, she has tutored divers in theGreater Cincinnati area at various schools,

champs, Carl, the 2013winner, earned a 1-up win,but not without a fightfrom the stubbornThompson.
“I’ve always played inthe Met, and I’ll be backnext year,” said Thomp-son, who lives in Kenwoodwhere she runs her ownbusiness. “I’ll play in it aslong as I can. I feel like Ihave to because I want togive back to the game asmuch as it’s given to me.”
Thompson has trav-eled to places she might
not have, and formed en-during friendshipsthrough the continuinggenerosity of golf. It’sbeen a symbiotic relation-ship. Hers will be a lastingand revered name in localannals on both sides of theOhio River.
Thompson won the2002 NCAA Division IIIindividual national cham-pionship at Thomas MoreCollege, becoming thefirst athlete in school his-tory to win a national title.She’s a legendary figurein Crestview Hills withher own banner hangingat Connor ConvocationCenter, the Saints’ on-campus arena.
Thompson was in thework force and turned 44the year she won the na-tional crown. She was a ju-nior with eligibility re-maining on the firstThomas More women’sgolf team following abrief stint 26 years earlierat Western Kentucky Uni-versity. Thompson woundup in Sports Illustrated’s“Faces In The Crowd”segment a month later in2002.
Today, she stands out ina crowd with a golf gamethat just won’t quit.
“Maybe, one day, I’llwin a third Met,” Thomp-son said. “I know onething, I’ll keep trying.”

but most recently hasbeen with MND, Mason,St. Xavier and SummitCountry Day. At Summit,she coached recent statechampion Stewart Span-bauer.
In the past she hasalso coached at High-lands, Indian Hill, Ma-deira and Ursuline. Shecurrently leads the Ma-son divers at their ownpool and brings MND, St.Xavier and Summit withher club team, Tri-StateDiving, to UC’s facilities.
Her knowledge of theintricate sport is immea-surable and she has thebattle wounds of back is-sues and shoulder sur-geries to support herwords of wisdom.
“When you dive plat-form, you’re 33 feet inthe air and you’re goingabout 45 miles an hour,”she said. “When youdon’t hit that water per-fectly, water is not for-
giving. It’s hard!”Rapp was in the Sen-
ior National Champion-ships at age 14 and even-tually participated in the1988 Olympic Trials inIndianapolis in platformdiving. In 1992, she wasin the Olympic Trials forplatform and 3-meterspringboard.
With the Cougars, shewas a four-time NationalHigh School All-Ameri-can and first-team All-City in both the Cincin-nati Enquirerand the for-mer Cincinnati Post.
She won the state titlethree straight years andset a record in her 1988senior season. She justmissed four straight ti-tles with a narrow loss asa freshman.
“I missed it by likeone-tenth of a point to agirl I dove against inclub,” Rapp recalled.
Spanbauer was hermost recent championand she’s also tutoredthree girls state champi-ons (Brittany Hill, IndianHill; Jennifer Funch, Ur-suline; Molly Elkins,
Centerville/Tri-StateDiving).
“We are a very small,close-knit community,”Rapp said. “Pretty muchall of the kids know eachother. I have three of myown kids, but I considerall of these kids mine. Ihave a huge extendedfamily.”
Years ago, local illus-trator Hank Zureick cre-ated caricatures for localprep athletes that ap-peared in the local pa-pers and adorned wallsof neighborhood LaRo-sa’s restaurants. LoriRizzuto Rapp was onceimmortalized by the latesports promoter, so she’sactually been in a LaRo-sa’s “hall” for awhile.
“Hank Zureick, Godlove him, what a greatman!” Rapp said. “In mycaricature I had the big80s hair. I wish they didthat still. One of my son’sfriends went over to Bou-dinot (LaRosa’s) after ahigh school game andsent him a text saying, ‘Ijust saw your mom’s pic-ture on the wall!’”

What may have beenthe halftime speech ofCarl Kremer’s life neverhappened on March 21,2003.
With his Moeller HighSchool basketball teamholding a nine-point leadin the Division I semifinalagainst ClevelandHeights, Kremer had spo-ken with his coaches andwas about deliver a fewcogent remarks.
One of his Crusader as-sistants stopped him.
“Joe’s got this,” Krem-er was told.
A team that featuredfuture Division I startersJosh Duncan, AndrewBrackman and BubbaWalther, along with seniorpoint guard Rob Christie,found inspiration fromrole player/motivationalforward Joe Kimener.
Specifically, a guy whoaveraged a bucket or twoa game lectured shot-hap-py guard Walther over anill-advised heave beforehalftime.
“We used to run 1-4 lowwith one guy at the top andfour guys at the baselinefor the last shot,” Kimen-er said. “Bubba didn’thave a very good first halfand he had the ball. I toldhim, ‘They’re going tocome and double you. Atthat point, you’ve got togive it up because therewill be somebody open.’That’s what happened andhe forced a bad shot.”
Twelve years later, thereceiver of Kimener’shalftime wrath confirmsthe story and supports hisactions.
“I took a bad shot at theend of the half and Joe putme in my place,” Walthersaid. “At a certain point inthe year, Joe and Robbiemade all of the in-gameadjustments on the courtfor us. They were just ex-tensions of the coaches onthe court.”
Kimener’s messagewas received as the Cru-saders got the ball to Dun-can and Brackman, whohad 27 and 25 points, re-spectively. Moeller built a19-point third quarterlead, but gave it up. Inovertime, they had a 16-point spurt and went on towin 85-74.
Knocking off No. 6One night later, the
Crusaders took down the
No. 6 team in the nation,Columbus Brookhaven,which featured Oklaho-ma-bound Brandon Faustand Drew Lavender (bothwould transfer, with Lav-ender coming to Xavier).They weren’t favored, butpulled it out 73-65 forKremer’s second state ti-tle.
Moeller’s junior powertrio topped the scoringwith Duncan at 23, Wal-ther at 19 and Brackmanat 18.
All three had signifi-cant college careers, plusKremer had two reservebig men on the roster insophomores Ryan Chil-dress and Tyler Dierkers.
“You had five kids onthat team that ended upplaying DI basketball at apretty high level,” Krem-er said. “Brackman was atNC State, Josh was at Xa-vier, Bubba started out atAkron and then went toOhio U, Chilly (Childress)ended up at Tennesseeand Dierkers had a greatcareer at Miami.”
More than the boxscore
Many may recognizethe names of Duncan,Brackman and Waltherfrom 2003. However,without their reliable up-perclassmen, the Crusad-ers may have come upshort.
“The unsung heroes onthat ’03 team were the twoseniors,” Kremer said.“Robby Christie, the pointguard, was the heart andsoul. Tough, guarded any-body, had no fear andwould not miss a freethrow. Joe Kimener wasone of the best defenders Iever had. He defendedone-on-one and was greataway from the ball.”
Walther, who hascoached with former Cru-sader Matt Rooks at Wyo-ming and now LakotaWest, calls Christie andKimener the best leadershe’s ever been around.Without their grinding ef-forts, an arguably moretalented 2004 team fellshort of the crown.
“People would say,‘Why do you play Kimen-er?’ ” Kremer said.“There probably wereguys that in one-on-onegames were better, butnobody fit that role thatthis team needed. Weneeded a ‘glue’ guy. Thisteam doesn’t win statethat year without Joe Ki-
mener.”
Juniors key to thejourney
Of course, the DI talentdidn’t hurt.
Josh Duncan was all-league for three straightyears. Trained by his fa-ther, Kremer recalls thepower forward doing ri-diculous amounts of push-ups to strengthen his 6-foot-7 frame. Now playingoverseas, Duncan isamong Moeller’s all-timeleaders in many catego-ries, trailing only BobbyBrannen and Byron Lar-kin in scoring. He shotmore free throws thanany Crusader.
“In his sophomore yearwe moved him up and hewas probably the bestplayer on our team,”Kremer said. “By his ju-nior year, he was a bigname around the state al-ready. Even though hewas 6-7, 6-8, he was a phe-nomenal shooter.”
Opposite of Duncanwas late bloomer AndrewBrackman. During his ju-nior year, Brackman was6-foot-7, but would latergrow to 6-foot-10 and signto play basketball andbaseball at North CarolinaState. Not only did he leadMoeller to a basketball ti-tle in 2003, he pitched theCrusaders to a state base-ball championship the fol-lowing year.
“Brack’s probably themost talented player andathlete I’ve ever beenaround,” Walther said.
In baseball, he becamea first-round choice of theYankees in 2007. In bas-ketball, many includingKremer, think he couldhave played in the NBA.At NC State in the ACC, hestarted as a freshman.With the Crusaders hewent from a couple ofearly scholarship offersto being a hot commodityin 2003.
“About midwaythrough the year at St. Ig-natius, he had a gamewhere he scored in the 20swith four man-like dunksin transition in traffic,”Kremer said. “He just allof a sudden blossomed.Now, we had these twobookend players.”
Adding to the Moellerarsenal was Walther. Hav-ing led the Greater MiamiConference in scoring as asophomore at Colerain, hetransferred as a junior toplay with his friend
Brackman and AAUteammate Christie. In thebackcourt with Christie,he had Kremer’s blessingto shoot with reliable postoptions in Duncan andBrackman.
“As a guard, it was easyto get the ball to them andthey would make you lookbetter,” Walther said.
In just two seasonswith Moeller, he made 101treys. Recent grad GrantBenzinger has the recordwith 130, but had Waltherplayed three seasons likemany on the list, he likelywould be on top.
Vision began earlyThe origins of the 2003
title run can also be tracedback to Christie and Ki-mener. As eighth-gradersthey attended Moeller’s1999 state championshipand marveled over the tal-ents of former CrusaderMike Monserez. As part ofa talented freshman classthe following season, theycame into camp and boast-ed publicly of their goal towin their own champion-ship.
“Our freshman classwas really good and ev-erybody compared us tothat team,” Kimener said.“We got really tired ofhearing about it becausewe thought we could dowhat they did.”
Though the develop-ment of Duncan andBrackman and transfer ofWalther helped, Kimeneralso credits the GreaterCatholic League mental-ity and the rigorous prac-tice sessions against play-ers that likely would startat other schools.
“Guys we practiced
against every day weregreat athletes in othersports,” Kimener said.“The competitive envi-ronment was incrediblyhigh. Tyler Stovall playedbaseball in Michigan(Central Michigan) andwas one of the better play-ers in the conference andBlake Carter was a greatfootball player whoplayed DI (Central Flori-da).”
Nothing isguaranteed
With Childress andDierkers gaining moreminutes in the rotation in2004 along side Duncan,Brackman and Walther, a2004 title seemed to be areasonable expectation.But, as Moeller upsetBrookhaven in 2003, theColumbus school re-turned serve the follow-ing year, knocking the fa-vorite Crusaders out.
Though the five DIplayers all were a part of2003, they played more asa group in 2004. The teamhad enough talent to takeon an array of future proson an undefeated Oak HillAcademy squad. Facingthe likes of Rajon Rondo(Kentucky), Josh Smith(straight to NBA), K.C.Rivers (Clemson), BrianJohnson (Louisville) andDayshawn Wright (Syra-cuse), the Crusaders gavethem a scare.
“They beat us by four,”Kremer said. “We cut it totwo with a minute to go. Itwas the only close gamethey had all year.”
Also on the 2004 teamwas former UC walk-onPatrick Watt. A year aftertheir 23-4 championship
year, the Crusaders fin-ished 22-3.
EpilogueIn addition to Christie,
Walther, Duncan, Kimen-er, Brackman, Childressand Dierkers, the 2003championship roster in-cluded senior AndrewJuenger, senior CraigBecker, junior Ryan Trai-nor, sophomore TylerHoward, junior BlakeCarter, junior P.J. Juen-ger, senior Willie DeTem-ple and junior Tyler Sto-vall.
Duncan is currentlyplaying in Israel andBrackman will be induct-ed into the La Rosa’s Hallof Fame in June as one ofthe area’s finest prep ath-letes ever.
As a high school coach,Walther makes the roundsduring tournament time,scouting the talent andreminiscing of jumpinginto his teammates’ armsone March in Columbus.The group had a 10-yearreunion a couple of yearsback and Walther stillthinks they could string afew watchable minutes to-gether on the hardwood.
“We joke around thatwe could get together andstill beat some of the highschool teams aroundhere,” Walther said.

If you have a landlinein your home you knowwhat often happens rightaround dinner time – aphone call from a tele-marketer. This occurseven though you’re listedon the federal Do-Not-Call Registry, which isintended to protect youfrom such unwantedsales calls.
Now, new federalregulations have beenenacted designed to pro-tect consumers fromunwanted robocalls andtexts. The Federal Com-mission Commission saystext messages to wirelessphone are considered
calls andare nowsubject tothe sameconsentrequire-ment asphone callsto lan-dlines.
Con-sumerscan now
tell their phone serviceproviders they want tohave robocalls blocked sothey are not disturbed.Under these new rules,phone service providerscan now offer suchblocking services andtechnology to their cus-
tomers. Prior to thisruling providers believedthey could not block anycalls for fear of breakingthe law.
Under these new reg-ulations consumers whopreviously agreed toreceive calls from a busi-ness can now revoke thatconsent at any time. Inaddition, being on anacquaintance’s wirelessphone contact list is nolonger considered tohave given permission toreceive robocalls.
The FCC says its ac-tions restricting unwant-
ed telemarketing calls isdesigned to bolster theeffectiveness of the Do-Not-Call Registry. It saysthis closes loopholes andensures that consumersare fully protected fromunwanted calls, includingthose not covered by theregistry.
The FCC says it re-ceives thousands of com-plaints each month aboutsuch unwanted robocalls.In fact, they are the larg-est number of complaintsthe commission receives,numbering more than215,000 last year.
Many of these un-wanted calls come fromoutside the country orfrom companies thatignore the Do-Not-CallRegistry. That’s why thisnew ruling allows phonecompanies to block suchcalls from ever gettingthrough.
However, spoofing inwhich callers changetheir phone numbers,may be a way some try toget around phone compa-ny blocks. Companies arenow looking to developnew ways to block suchcalls. But it remains to be
seen if phone companieswill offer the blockingservice.
Cincinnati Bell says itis waiting for the FCC torelease the full text of itsorder before decidingwhat to do. In a state-ment, Cincinnati Bellsays, “That will allow usto fully understand whatwe can and cannot do forcustomers who want toblock robocalls.”

POLICE REPORTS
With swimming poolsopen and summer vaca-tions in full swing, peoplewill be flocking to poolsand beaches. That can be agreat way to beat the heat.But it can also be disas-trous without the properprecautions.
“Water is fun to bearound and everybodyloves it, but it also has adangerous side to it,” saysJill Toennis, the RedCross’s aquatics special-ist for the Cincinnati-Day-ton Region. “An averageof 10 people die fromdrowning every day, andhalf of them are under theage of 14.”
Additionally, differentenvironments create dif-ferent challenges, so justbecause someone isskilled at swimming in apool doesn’t mean he orshe is skilled swimming inan ocean.
To help, Toennis offersfive key safety tips for thewater this summer:
» Swim in a designatedarea supervised by life-guards.
» Maintain constantsupervision. Never leavea child unattended — noteven for a minute. And donot trust a child’s life toanother child. Teach chil-dren to always ask per-
mission to go near water.» Make sure everyone
in the family can swimwell. Enroll them in RedCross swim lessons.
» Have the appropriateequipment to be able toreach or throw in case ofan emergency. Have a cellphone, first aid kit and lifejacket available. Also,learn CPR and resuscita-tion breathing, and down-load the Red Cross emer-gency and first aid apps.
» Have young childrenor inexperienced swim-mers wear a U.S. CoastGuard approved life jack-et around water, but do notrely on life jackets alone.
Prevent drowning with safety tips
8B • LOVELAND HERALD • JULY 8, 2015 LIFE
Danny O’Keefe was severelybeaten and left to die May 6,2011, but he lived.
Because he stepped in, hissister Kelly survived a brutalattack in her home. Today, morethan four years later, DannyO’Keefe continues to fight forhis life.
Danny suffered seriousbrain trauma which robbed himof speech and mobility func-tions we all take for granted.His recovery has already beenmiraculous; no emergencymedical staff expected him tosurvive — period. A practicingattorney the day he was at-tacked, Danny has had to re-learn to stand, walk, read andtalk. He has a long way to go. Hismother, Kathy, is amazed at howmany people think he alreadyrecovered in full.
“People always tell me wedidn’t know about this,” shesaid. “We were told not to talkabout it at the beginning.”
The O’Keefes didn’t talk tothe newspapers, the television,anybody that called. Theycouldn’t. Nobody really knew.Not jeopardizing the case wasthe reason they were told to stayquiet. They can talk about itnow, but it’s four years later.
“Now we’re sort of fightingan uphill battle,” O’Keefe said.
The Loveland-SymmesTownship community whereDanny grew up is helping tosmooth out that hill. More than100 people climbed into the sad-dle and stepped into the stirrupsof the RealRyder indoor cyclesat PowerRyde in Loveland April18. Each made a minimum dona-tion of $20 to ride one of six gru-eling 30-minute sessions to
raise money to help Danny.They raised more than $3,500and donations are still tricklingin there.
“When we went there, werealized how many people docare,” O’Keefe said. “People Iwent to high school with werethere, Moeller alumni, just totalstrangers.”
One lady forgot her check-book, had a flight to catch, andcame back with a check on herway to the airport. Moellergraduate and former Crusaderfootball coach Bob Crable wasamong those who rode for theirfellow Moeller alum. Kim Spi-ers, who shed 200 pounds in ayear, rode all six sessions andtallied the equivalent of 110miles that day. Betsy Shepherdmade the connection afterlearning of the similarity be-tween PowerRyde owner Casey
Hilmer and Danny - both wereattacked.
“I’m terribly grateful,”O’Keefe said. “I didn’t knowMeg, didn’t know Betsy, and Ididn’t know Casey. Theystepped up, and in three weeks’time, put this on.”
O’Keefe said Danny wouldnot be where he is without theirhelp. The expenses are stagger-ing. Just one month of therapyat the University of MichiganAphasia Program (UMAP) is$22,000 - their cost is $27K withtravel and accommodations. Itis intensive therapy to restoreDanny’s ability to read, compre-hend, speak and understandspeech. Then there’s the physi-cal therapy. He needs threedays a week, but can only goonce a week due to insurancelimits.
A friend is a massage thera-
pist and volunteers her time.Another friend donates twodays a week to provide therapyfor Danny. Friends from UDand law school have raised mon-ey in Columbus, Colorado andChicago along with a golf outingand auction here locally. Theyfound a speech therapy pro-gram online for $1,200 a monthand a tutor for $900 a month.They only go to UMAP whenthey can.
“The golf outing pays for onemonth in Michigan,” O’Keefesaid. “The bike riding andMoeller paid for two and a halfmonths of therapy.”
When she looks at how farDanny has come, it doesn’tseem like they have that far togo for Kathy O’Keefe. He couldhave died any time. Paramedicshad to resuscitate him threetimes on the way to the hospital.He lost sight in one eye, was par-alyzed on one side, and could notread, speak, or understand oneword when he came home aboutsix weeks after the attack. Nowhe moves his wrist about aninch, he pinches and holdsthings.
“No words, he couldn’t swal-low the first couple weeks,”O’Keefe said. “His first wordwas ‘no’ cause I made him mad,second word was ‘mom’ and wecan’t tell you the third word.”
There was a “wonderful”speech therapist at the Univer-sity of Cincinnati. First therewere some single words. Hismom used flash cards with him.He has an extensive vocabularynow. Putting them together hasbeen hard. He’s made greatstrides since last December. Allthe treatments have helped. Heis reading a book he read in ele-mentary school. A year ago, hewouldn’t even have picked up abook. He’s not going to stop. Hisphrase is: “Hope and Heart.”His mom says he has a lot ofboth.
He’s a hero, not a victim. Hesaid he’d do it again. He loveshis sister, she’s alive, and that’sall that matters. One friend saidhe “had” a promising future. Ifyou ask him, or his mom, his fu-ture is still filled with greatpromise.
“I think if he gets his speechback, the world will be totallyopen to him,” Kathy O’Keefesaid. “I’m hoping a couple yearsif he keeps improving at the cur-rent rate. He’ll tell you he was alawyer and that’s where he’sheaded.”
