Sandy Church stands with some of the bunnies she made for employees at The Meadows of Kalida. In a little more than a month, she has made more than 100 bunnies for the staff members.

Finding more time the easy way

April 19-25 is National TV Turn-off Week. The description said it is a time to ditch your remote controls and reconnect with your kids. It doesnt sound like a bad idea. As the weather turns warmer I think we all spend a little less time in front of the screen and a little more time outside doing things. I have a goal this year to spend more time doing things and less time watching television and surfing on the Internet. Ive been working on it gradually. Its been easy for a long time to turn the television on for the evening news and then just not shut it off until I go to bed. It didnt matter if there was a show on that I particularly wanted to see. It was just nice to be able to sit down and do nothing. Now, once the news is over, I make an effort to turn the television off and not turn it back on unless there is a show that seems of particular interest or entertainment. I also try to leave my laptop closed. My emails and Facebook messages will be there later when I get to them. Suddenly I have found I have this unusual amount of free time. I have been able to organize a storage box filled with craft items. I have read a few books I didnt have time for before. Im even starting to learn a few chords on a ukulele. It was time I didnt think I had before. Now I realize I had it, but filled it with my habits of TV and computers. I had a friend who told me she also discovered by turning the television off she now has more time to do things she has been wanting to do for years. Dont get me wrong. I like television. I think there are some shows that are fun or educational to watch. I also think that sometimes after working all day, sitting in front of a television and doing nothing is important. I also enjoy computer surfing and have been able to research many things through the years. I just think both have become too much of a hobbypastime that Ive allowed to take over my evenings. I wonder if anyone else out there has a hobby they wish they had time to start. Maybe the hobby is woodworking or gardening. Maybe you have been like me and avoided starting it because you felt you didnt have time. I have realized when my grandchildren are here for a visit we rarely watch television. We are too busy doing things. Sometimes it may be trying a new craft. Another time it may be making all kinds of flavored popcorn. Often times its just exploring the outside and trying to find the biggest bug. If the weather is bad and we need to relax I allow them to pick out their favorite books. Sometimes I read to them and sometimes they read to me. Its fun both ways. The off button on the remote seems to be working better lately.

Local woman sews bunnies for Meadows of Kalida staff

By NANCY KLINE
nkline@putnamvoice.com 419-231-2444

KALIDA Just a little more than a month ago, Sandy Church started sewing bunnies. Not just one or two for grandchildren, but more than 100 for staff at The Meadows of Kalida. Sandy was staying at The Meadows while recovering from health problems when a staff member asked her to make a teddy bear for a grandchild using shirt material from the granddaughters grandfather who had passed away. Since Easter was approaching, Sandy decided to make a bunny with the flannel material. Another employee saw the bunny and requested two for her children. I had my sewing machine with me since I enjoy sewing so much, Sandy said. This is not the first time she has stayed at The Meadows recovering from medical problems. I love the staff here, she said. They always treat me so wonderful. Sandy had some of her own material that she said is reproduction of patterns from the 1930s. Eventually Sandy decided to offer making bunnies for other staff members them. I had some of my own material, and Kevin Kidd, the director here, and my daughter Rhonda brought in more material for me to use, she said Staff members would stop by and choose material they wanted for the bunnies from the selection Sandy had lain out on her bed. We had put up a sign-up sheet on the time clock telling the staff to stop by and pick out their material for the bunnies, Sandy said. She kept a careful notebook list-

Sandy Church holds one of the many bunnies she made for employees at The Meadows of Kalida. Sandy said the aqua bunny is her favorite one. ing the material for each bunny. She started sewing the bunnies on March 3. By the time she was done, Sandy had made 102 bunnies for staff members, each with a label on it. I guess its just my way of saying thank you to the staff for being so good to me, Sandy said. She did not charge for the

bunnies. Sandy said cutting across the grain she was able to make one bunny from each yard of material. I could make about 23 bunnies in a week, she said. The only assistance she received was another employee who sometimes helped do the hand-stitching after the stuffing was put in the bunnies. I was about 13 when I started sewing, Sandy said. I was using a treadle sewing machine at that time. She took home economics in school in the seventh grade. By the time I graduated, my mother said I could sew better than her, Sandy said And my mother was a really good seamstress. I think I learned a lot about sewing just watching her. Sandy said she took the Bishop Method of Sewing Classes after she was married to learn how to tailor her own clothes. I made all the clothes for myself, my two kids and some for my husband, Sandy said. Sandy also learned about quilting while working in a quilt shop in Michigan. I enjoy doing the pieces for quilt tops, she said. But I let someone else do the quilting. Sandy said while she was making the bunnies she had a lot of people in and out of her room. I sleep in my recliner, so I kept the bunnies on my bed, she said. My bed was covered in bunnies all the time. Sandy said even strangers walking by would peak in to see the bunnies and ask questions. The bunnies were given to the staff members last week. Sandy also has been able to once again go home. I love it at The Meadows, she said. But its always nice to go home.

LETTER

A bounty of harvest for food pantry

By NANCY KLINE
nkline@putnamvoice.com 419-231-2444

Saturday was a good day for a special harvest in Putnam County. Members of three Knights of Columbus organizations in Putnam County held a Lenton Grain Harvest competition to collect boxes of cereal for the Putnam County Thrift Store food pantry in Ottawa. Taking part were the Ottoville Knights of Columbus, Kalida Knights of Columbus and Ottawa Knights of Columbus. We challenged all the Knights of Columbus organizations in the county to see who could collect the most boxes of cereal, said Tim Macke, who helped coordinate the event. He said three of the four Knights of Columbus agreed to take part in this years event. The boxes were brought to the Ottawa K of C Hall Saturday morning and counted. The members collected a total of 398 boxes with the Ottawa K of C members collecting the most, 226 boxes. The Kalida Knights of Columbus came in second. As the boxes were brought in, they were placed on miniature wagons and pedaled to the truck by a miniature tractor driven by Owen Tobe. The mission to bring in food for the food pantry was not through for the morning, however. After collecting the boxes of cereal at the K of C, the truck had to make another stop at Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic School SPPS students had decided upon a weekly food drive for the countywide food pantry at the Putnam County Community Thrift Stores Food Pantry. Each week a different food item from the stores staple food item list was chosen. Over a six-week period they collected: Week 1 - 146 boxes of cereal Week 2 - 360 boxes of jello Week 3 - 163 boxes of various pasta Week 4 - 360 containers of baby

Do Ottoville residents even know where Road 5 is?

To the editor As an Ottawa resident who suffered some damage from flooding in 2007, a thought has come to mind. I have heard Commissioner Schroeder say the Commissioners Office can only fund projects that affect the whole county. Does the Road 5 project meet these criteria? Do residents on the western side of Putnam County even know, or care, if this road is widened, to save a truck driver a few miles? On the other hand I am sure major flooding has a large impact on most residents, industry and businesses in Putnam County. For instance, residents find it hard to get to work or any other place they need to be, industries are stressed when they do not have enough workers to operate efficiently, and business is curtailed in general. Another thing I have heard Commissioner Schroeder mention is the ditch projects the commissioners work on. We all can appreciate the necessity of good drainage so farmers can grow the crops we all need, but The Army Corp of Engineers talks of holding the rain drop where it falls as a form of flood control, are these two programs not in competition with each other. Can we somehow reach a happy medium? John Agner Ottawa resident

Recogninzing child abuse

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month. The purpose aims to educate individuals and communities about how they can help prevent the abuse and neglect of children. The different types of abuse are: Physical abuse - the misuse or maltreatment of another person in a physical manner such as punching, kicking, or biting a child. Sexual abuse - the rape, molestation, prostitution or incest of a child or using a child for the purpose of making sexually explicit pictures or videos. Emotional abuse - the verbal or psychological abuse of a child including threatening, name calling, ignoring, shaming unfairly, shouting, cursing, etc. Mind games are another form of emotional abuse. Keeping children safe is a community responsibility, and prevention must be a community task. Every segment of society must be involved, including health and law enforcement professionals, schools, businesses, the media, government agencies, community and faith organizations, and especially parents themselves. Teachers and physicians need to recognize the symptoms of child abuse; parents need to ask for help in overcoming addictions or controlling violent behavior; communities must be willing to fund programs and services to protect children from abuse; and the media needs to raise public awareness of the availability of those programs and services. Things we can do to keep children safe: Are children able to care for themselves? It depends on their maturity. Children should know their address and how to call 911. There should be a trusted neighbor at home. Sleep when your child sleeps, stay awake while supervising your child Lock doors so children cant get out When children live in homes with domestic violence, the chance of them being injured increases dramatically, if the kids arent harmed, the impact on them is devastating. These children are more likely to abuse drugs/alcohol, have depressions, wind up in abusive relationships themselves.

PANDORA
Kristine Frick DeBolt, 68, died April 3, 2012, at her residence, surrounded by her loving family. She was born Jan. 11, 1944, in Bellefontaine to Arthur and Ann Harding Frick, who preceded her in death. On Dec. 4, 1999, she married Reuben DeBolt, who survives in Pandora. Mrs. DeBolt was a graduate of Lima Senior High School and of Lima School of Practical Nursing. She worked briefly in nursing before becoming a fulltime mother and homemaker. She had also been a model at Greggs Department Store and at Lazarus, both in Lima. She brought her creativity and eye for detail to her own antiques business, Gander Run, and home and wedding decorating. She was a member of St. John Mennonite Church, Pandora, and of the community, serving both in many different capacities. She had served on the Pandora-Gilboa school board, was a member of Asi No Mas, Hardin County Herb Society, and Swiss Community Historical Society. She loved the simple beauties of Gods creation and enjoyed quiet places like Holmes County, Sanibel Island and the English countryside, where she lived for a year. She cultivated her flowers and garden with much love and care and created a welcoming atmosphere for birds at her home. These were an extension of her endearing grace that flowed from her firm faith and caused her to be an encourager and inspiration to many. She has now gone home to be with the Lord. Survivors also include a son, Ty Comer, of Pandora; a brother Mark (Dee) Frick, of Elida; a sister, Karen (Wayne) Smith, of Hilliard; and two stepdaughters, Sarah DeBolt, of Bogota, Colombia, and Rebekah DeBolt, of Knoxville, Tenn. She was preceded in death by a sister, Jan Frick. Memorial services were held Saturday at St. John Mennonite Church, Pandora. Memorial contributions may be made to St. John Mennonite Church Missions, Putnam County Hospice or Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. Condolences may be expressed at chiles-lamanfh. com. Arrangements were by Chiles-Laman Funeral & Cremation Services, Bluffton.

Carl Brinkman
Carl Paul Brinkman, 67, died at 9:44 a.m. April 1, 2012, at Bridge Hospice Care Center, Findlay. He was born Nov. 26, 1944, in Kalida to Cornelius A. and Genevieve Michel Brinkman, who preceded him in death. On Dec. 12, 1988, he married Joyce Prowant Kimmet, who survives in Leipsic. Mr. Brinkman was coowner of the Double J Bar, Leipsic, and a general laborer. He attended St. Mary Catholic Church, Leipsic. He was a member of Fraternal Order of Eagles Aerie 2793, Leipsic, and the Laborers union in Lima. He was a social member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9547, Leipsic. He enjoyed golfing and was a loving husband, father and grandfather. Survivors also include two sons, DeWayne (Mary) Brinkman, of Knoxville, Tenn., and Shannon Brinkman, of St. Marys, Ga.; two daughters, Shannon Kimmet, of Leipsic, and Casandra Brinkman, of Leipsic; five grandchildren, Matthew Berger, Savannah Guevara, Conner Guevara, Ansley Brinkman and Grayson Brinkman; four brothers, Harold Brinkman, of Morgan Hill, Calif., Mark (Ruth) Brinkman, of Glandorf, and James (Cheryl) Brinkman and Gary Brinkman, both of Ottawa; five sisters, Ruth (Bill) Storing, of Clearfield, Utah, Jane (Dave) Ripley and Judy Cuevas, both of Ottawa, Lynn (Raymie) Dible, of Carey, and Mary (Frank) Mullins, of Ottawa; and 14 nieces and 13 nephews.

OTTOVILLE To help raise money for new playground equipment for the Ottoville Park, a 5K and 1/2 mile fun run/walk will be held on Saturday, April 14, at the Ottoville Park. Registration will begin at 9:30 a.m. with the 1/2 mile fun run/walk beginning at 10 a.m. and the 5K race starting at 11 a.m. Runners will register at the Ottoville Parish Center in the old gym (enter the facilities on the west side of the building, Credit Union Entrance). All ages are welcome to participate in either run/walk event. Participants can pick up a race entry form at the Ottoville Post Office or can visit www.findlaystriders.com for an entry form. Registers are also welcome to sign up the day of the event, but will not be guaranteed a T-shirt. Runners, walkers and spectators are welcome to come out and participate. This will be a family friendly event with other activities including a 50/50 drawing and a bake sale sponsored by Ottoville Girl Scout Troop 20034. The Ottoville Community has recently kicked off a campaign to raise money to replace the twenty-five year old Mother Lode Mine that is currently at the park. According to preliminary estimates, a large piece of equipment for the children to play on would cost approximately $87,000. This campaign is being kicked off in 2012 in celebration of the 50th annual Ottoville Park Carnival that will be held on Labor Day weekend. The Ottoville community is seeking donations from area organizations, businesses and in individuals to team up to accomplish this fundraising goal. If you would like to make a donation to the Ottoville Playground Equipment Fund, you can send a check payable to Ottoville Playground Equipment Fund P.O. Box 100, Ottoville, 45876.
