In addition to the program and singing, there will be carriage and pony rides. Parking space is provided on the carnival grounds and a shuttle will transport people from the parking area to the center of town. The evening program will begin at 7 p.m. at Avon Hall, the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Carrigan. This will feature a fife and drum corps, the Potowmack Ancients, games and races and the National Anthem, sung by Mrs. Jane Pillow of Charlottesville. School Board Member Retires The June session of the Rappahannock School Board was Chairman E. N. Montague’s last meeting before retirement from his position as the county’s “at large” representative. At the close of the meeting, he gave the Board some parting advice. He reminded his associates that Rappahannock’s school system was only one-half man year above the minimum state level for ratio of administrative personnel to pupils and below the minimum per pupil funding level. “If we slip on anything, we could lose considerable funds,” warned Montague. He recommended that the School Board consider determining the percentage of eighth grade students who have writing skills com mensurate to their ability and set a goal for improvement of those skills, year by year. Establishing a goal would help students to realize the importance of Writing skills, he said. “If writing skills are improved, then mathematics and reading will also improve,” he maintained. “We in the county owe a great deal to Dick Norton and Mary Botts Quaintance for their contribution in making Rappahannock schools a system to be proud of,” continued Montague. (Both Superintendent of Schools Norton and Mrs. Quaintance, principal of the county’s elementary school, are retiring this year.) “Rappahannock County has a rural school system with few equals,” Montague concluded. More On Mileage Dispute N/ Memo Of Understanding Proposed By daphne McCullough Rappahannock News Staff Writer The injunction against a county sheriffs department patrolling highways “comes from a ruling of the Compensation Board. It’s not law,” said Fauquier Sheriff Luther Cox at last Thursday’s meeting of the Rappahannock-Rapid an Planning District Commission. The ruling was issued by the Compensation Board to eliminate payments to localities for practices that duplicated the State Police function of highway patrolling, Cox said. His remarks were occasioned by a possible solution, put forward by Commission Chairman Pete Luke, toward solving the continuing disagreement in Rappahannock County between the Sheriffs Department and Commonwealth Attorney George Davis over mileage claims deemed “improper” by Davis. yni iiiv i vi/iuaij uivviuig of the Rappahannock Supervisors Davis submitted a memorandum to the Board stating that in his opinion it was improper to pay mileage for patrolling or policing highway traffic, or for patrolling or policing businesses and residences, "unless a complaint has been received that a crime has been committed or is about to be committed at such location.” Supervisor Chairman Luke wrote to the Attorney General, requesting a ruling on the scope of a sheriffs duties and the Supervisors voted to pay mileage claims, despite Davis's objections.) Subsequently, Davis asked the State Police to conduct an investigation of Rappahannock Sheriff W. A. Buntin’s department on But At No Cost To County Welfare Services Expanded The Rappahannock Welfare Board unanimously authorized Social Services Director Elizabeth Buntin to contract with Chapter Ten Mental Health and Retardation Board to purchase juvenile counselins and other services for the county. Title 20 funds allocated to Rappahannock will be used to buy the services and the county’s match will be covered' by donated funds provided through Chapter Ten instead of with local tax dollars. “We’re going to have a lot of federal Title 20 money that we can’t use unless the Board contracts with Chapter Ten to use donated funds to purchase services from Mental Health and Nutrition Services,” reported Mrs. Buntin. “If we don’t use Title 20 funds to pay for our people in Mental health, then we won’t be able to use up the money allocated to Rappahannock County,” stated Board member Aline Johnson. Mrs. Buntin agreed and explained that donated funds from the agencies contracted with will be used to cover the county’s share of local match funds required in the transactions. The donated funds are not federal funds but money the agencies get for their operations, she added. This donated money is only available for Rappahannock to use if the county decides to purchase services from Chapter Ten, interjected Nancy Reeve. The county cannot get donated funds from the agency and then use the money for other purposes, she explained. “If we use our Title 20 money (to purchase services), Chapter Ten will allocate funds that we couldn’t get otherwise,” stated Mrs. Johnson. “If we don’t use it, the money will be reallocated,” said Mrs. Buntin. She reported that pressure was already being applied on her department for a decision on how much of the county’s allocation was going to be spent so that the remainder can be reallocated to fund programs in more urban areas. Earlier in the meeting, Mrs. Buntin detailed the need for added counseling services required by recent amendments to the juvenile code. The amendments included in House Bill 518 are “very important, very far reaching,” said Mrs. Buntin. “No one knows exactly how it’s going to work out yet.” She explained that status A BULLDOZER BREAKS UP the last of the food stand on Amissville carnival grounds to make way for the eventual dual laning of Route 2ll. The buildings have been razed and new ones are being constructed in time for this year’s carnival in August. offenders, juveniles classified as runaways, truants and incorrigibles, will no longer be committed to state care but instead referred back to local Social Services departments for help. “Usually, when a child is delinquent, the source of the problem lies in the family,” said Mrs. Buntin. Under the juvenile code amendments, offenders and their families will need counseling services not currently available in the county. “I don’t know how much of a caseload will be involved because statistics (on status offenders) haven’t been kept in the past,” she continued. Some families will be able to pay for counseling since juvenile delinquency is not limited to those with low incomes, said Mrs. Buntin, but predicted that threefourths would be poor enough so they couldn’t afford to pay for the service themselves. “Our contracting with Mental Health will enable it to be paid for,” she added. Purchased services contracts with Chapter Ten will also cover entrance into Goldsborough House, a home for mildly retarded young women, group therapy counseling for retarded citizens and payment to the nutrition services program for meals for indigent participants. “It’s not costing the county anything,’’ commented Nancy Reeve before the Board members voted unanimously to approve contracting with Chapter Ten for purchased services. Conserve Water mileage claims and other charges. The complete report has been turned over to both Davis and the Attorney General’s office. Davis has released his “summary finding of facts”, to the county Supervisors. Nothing Written on Specific Doties “There’s nothing written that says whose duties are what,” said Luke, in reference to the controversy. Luke reported that he had researched the Virginia Code and talked to everyone from the Attorney General to the Chairman of the State Compensation Board without success. "There’s no definitive delineation of a county sheriffs responsibilities,” he He asked if the other Commissioners felt it would be possible to arrive at some sort of a memorandum of understanding between the functions of the State Police and Sheriffs Departments within the Planning District. “We’ve got sheriffs, police chiefs, State Police and Commonwealth Attorneys involved in criminal justice, all just going their own way, causing problems and divisiveness, he said. Definition Of Terms In regard to mileage claims, there are three words involved, each with a multitude of different definitions, Luke continued. “The words are patrolling, policing Iiid inspection,** he said. “All three are police activities. . .There ought to be some understanding on who does what and exactly what the terms mean,” he said. “A Sheriffs Department does all sorts of functions,” Fauquier Sheriff Luther Cox responded, but if ‘patrolling’ is written on mileage report forms, the Compensation Board won't pay. In answering specific calls, checking trouble spots or an area that neighbors feel needs special attention, county law enforcement officers essentially are engaged in patrolling,” he said. Ax To Grind “When the Commonwealth Attorney’s got a little ax to grind, he takes it out on the Sheriff and the State Police. . .It’s what’s been done in my county. I think it’s what’s being done in yours,” Cox maintained. He said that he didn’t think county Supervisors wanted Sheriffs Departments to neglect duties because patrolling can’t be listed on mileage sheets. “There’s plenty of work for the State Police and Sheriffs both. . .You’ve got a good Sheriff over there,” he told Chairman Luke. Cox added that he didn’t think a memorandum of understanding between the two law enforcement agencies would work in solving the problem. “When you come up on a crime, you’ve got to handle it,” he said. Luke answered that he still would like to see a definition of patrolling written “so we’re not at loggerheads.” Cox responded that county Boards of Supervisors could get the dispute settled by exerting pressure on the Compensation Board to reverse the ruling on patrolling by sheriff's departments. “Do sheriffs departments have any representative at the state level to carry their case before the General Assembly?” Luke asked. Cox replied that they didn’t, adding that sheriffs were under the jurisdiction of, and answered to, local Boards of Supervisors. “If you had a grievance against the Commonwealth Attorney, who would you carry it to?” Commissioner Bob Anderson asked Cox. “The Commonwealth Attorney is a constitutional officer, responsible to the people,” Cox responded. Whether he gained satisfaction on the grievance from the Commonwealth Attorney or not, “I’d carry it to him," stated the Fauquier Sheriff. Aging Services Expanded Area Agency on Aging Director Sally Stemple presented plans for expansion of services for the elderly in Rappahannock Covmty wt a pu>>ttc 1«e*rtKg «n the elementary school last Thursday. Aside from Social Services Director Elizabeth Buntin and George Muth, the county’s representative on the Chapter Ten Board, only a handful of senior citizens participating in the nutrition program attended the hearing. Services that include a newsletter for seniors, preventive health care and nutrition programs will be broadened to reach 522 elderly residents, an increase over the 2% served in the current year, according to Sally Stemple. She presented figures on Wco'rne W*rfv£ programs offered in the county. Local tax dollars, amounting to $655 channeled through Chapter Ten, account for .2 per cent of the total Aging budget and are used solely for community services. The nutrition program is funded with a basic Federal grant of $139,237, in-kind donations of $7,914 that include space and volunteer time, and cash donations front senior participants that amount to $7,557. THE WEATHER OF RECENT WEEKS is most conducive to this sort of pasttime. Basking in the sun and splashing around in the kiddies pool at South Wales is great.

KINES A new fund to aid victims of violent crimes in Virginia will be available Friday. Depending on the extent of the injuries and the finances of the victim, a person may be awarded up to $10,000. In case of death, the immediate family of the deceased can file for assistance. “Only persons injured on or after this July 1 are eligible for monetary compensation from the state,” said Robert Joyner, chairman of the Industrial Commission of Virginia, which will be processing the victim compensation claims when the new law takes effect Friday. Virginia’s Crime Victims Compensation Fund will be operated the same way the state handles workman’s compensation cases. The commission will handle both programs. Joyner’s office has been mailing out explanatory brochures and the claim forms to police departments, sheriffs offices, and commonwealth’s attorneys offices throughout the state. The initial form, which is brief and barely the size of a postcard, may also be obtained from John Wagner, administrator of the Crime Victims Compensation Fund, Box 1794, Richmond, Va. 23214, phone (804) 786-5170. Even though forms are available in Fauquier from offices of state legislators and law enforcement officials, victims may deal directly with the Richmond office in filing a claim. Persons eligible for compensation fall into three categories: victims of a violent crime, persons injured in the act of apprehending suspects or attempting to prevent a crime, and the immediate family of a victim who died as a direct result of a crime. To qualify, a claimant must have cooperated with police and must have reported the crime within 48 hours after it occurred. Claims must be filed with the Richmond office within 180 days. The victim also must have no other means of compensation. “This fund is designed for people who have nothing to fall back on, hardship cases,” Joyner said. After the fund receives the basic information on the initial form, the Richmond staff will telephone the claimant for more detailed information and conduct ah investigation of the case by phone. Joyner said he hoped rulings on claims could be made in a matter of days. However, he said the compensation awards would be made “conservatively.” Compensation could be delayed if there is a criminal prosecution pending in the courts. If that is the situation, an emergency award of up to $1,000 may be made, with other money to follow after the case has been heard. Joyner estimated that the fund will have $275,000 available by July 1 for qualifying victims of violent crimes. The General Assembly’s enabling legislation for the fund was passed in March 1976. Money for the fund is collected from an extra $10 fee tacked onto court costs for all felony and misdemeanor convictions with the exception of traffic offenses, disorderly conduct and drunk in public charges. For the past six months, Joyner said the fund has been collecting approximately $30,000 per month from the added $10 court fees. Legislation has been proposed in Washington since 1965 to provide states with funds for victims of crime. This type of bill has consistently passed the U. S. Senate and failed in the House. House Bill 7010, sponsored by congressman Peter W. Rodino (D N. J.) currently is pending. Mr. and Mrs. Larry G.

THURSDAY, JUNE 30,1977 HEW and ‘Living Wills’ In previous editorials we have endorsed the concept that, under certain conditions, extraordinary, measures being used to sustain life in a terminally ill patient be discontinued at the patient’s request. In such a case, allowing death to occur naturally can be a humanitarian act to end what otherwise would be a prolonged period of agonizing suffering in a patient for whom there is no remote possibility of recovery. Although that is our view, we were deeply disturbed to read that an official of the federal Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) had suggested the withholding of Medicare funds from state that fail to enact “living will” laws permitting people to direct that if they become terminally ill and doctors conclude that there is no possibility of recovery, lifesupport equipment should be withdrawn. We resent the idea of government ever using federal funds as a club to force states to do what government wants done. In the matter of “living wills,” our resentment is more intense than ever before because this is the most inappropriate and unjustified proposal along this line that we have encountered. In a memorandum to HEW Secretary Joseph A. Califano Jr. from Robert A. Derzon, administrator of HEW’s Health Care Financing Administration, the latter said that “the cost-saving from a nationwide push toward ‘living wills’ is likely to be enormous.” An “enormous” saving in federal health funds is greatly to be desired, but there is something deeply disquieting about putting a price tag on one of the most solemn issues in human existence—the right of a terminally ill patient to “die with dignity,” as it is often phrased. The philosophical, religious, moral and humanitarian questions involved in this whole troublesome issue are vastly more important than the saving of public funds, as desirable as that is. It would be wrong if, for any reason, the federal government sought to force “living will” laws on the states; it would be profoundly reprehensible if the government sought to encourage earlier deaths of terminally ill persons as a money-saving device. The question whether to enact “living will” laws or other legislation dealing with the “right to die” issue should be the prerogative of the people of the individual states, without being subjected to economic or other pressures from Washington. Secretary Califano should swiftly reject the illconceived recommendation made to him. —Richmond Times Dispatch Justice System Study Planned The RappahannockRapidan Planning District Commissioners took a first step towards an in depth study of the area's criminal justice system at last Thursday’s meeting. The Commissioners passed a resolution requesting the Criminal Justice Advisory Council to determine the feasibility of making a crime study on one of the District’s five counties. Commission Chairman E. P. Luke suggested that the studv trace criminal justice action from the “cradle to the grave.” “From commitment of the crime to incarceration,’’ amended Criminal Justice Planner John Jones. “Or non-incarceration,” added Commissioner Steve Mcllvaine. Commissioner Preston Moore brought up the topic by stating his concern over the morale of law enforcement officials.Instances occur over and over through the court system only to be released back onto the streets, said Moore. i m sure this happens, responded Fauquier Sheriff Luther Cox, Chairman of the Planning District’s Criminal Advisory Council. He added that matters of this type were beyond the control of Sheriff’s Departments. “We’re sort of like the ball player,” he commented. “When the umpire says you’re out, you’re out.” Cox agreed that morale of law enforcement officials was a problem. "You’ve hit on a very good point,” interjected Carl Cimino, representative from the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration offices in Richmond. He reported that his organization was trying to get a statewide study undertaken on the criminal justice system. The project would trace offenders through the system and answer questions like why accused persons fail to come to trial, who dismisses charges and why offenders are tried on lesser charges, said Cimino. He urged the Commissioners to follow through with their idea. Once the project was underway, criminal justice officials would start getting pictures that will hurt some J people, Cimino continued. He maintained that an indepth study would meet with opposition from those who wouldn’t want the type of information uncovered to become general knowledge. Police Function Not Problem He predicted that a comprehensive study would show problems weren’t arising in the “police function. . .It’s further down the line that we begin to suspect the criminal justice system might be breaking down,” Cimino said, adding that he wasn’t sure of the reasons for the breakdown. He suggested that the Commissioners pick a county at random from the Planning District for an indepth study, possibly keeping the identity of the county anonymous. “You’re likely to come out with some surprising information,” declared Cimino. “Umpires” Or “Coaches”? If the problem doesn’t lie with the “ball players”, does it involve the “umpires”? asked Commissioner Bob Anderson. Commissioner Dick McNear substituted “coaches” for “umpires” before Cimino could respond. “Has everyone broken the code yet?” asked Luke. The Commissioners voted unanimously to request that the Criminal Justice Advisory Council look into the feasibility of a comprehensive study of the District’s criminal justice system and report back at the commission’s July meeting. “I’d volunteer Fauquier for the study,” interjected Sheriff Cox. Ruritan Barbecue The Amissville Ruritan Gub will sponsor its annual beef barbecue on Saturday, July 2 from 5 until 9 p.m. The tender beef is pit-cooked over night and is served by the men with accompanying vegetables. The public is invited to attend. The barbecue is held at the Amissville carnival grounds on Route 211 just west of the village. AT THE FLINT HILL community dinner held recently at the carnival grounds, a presentation was made to the Rev. and Mrs. Malcolm Maples who have moved to Mineral to assume a Methodist pastorate. Mrs. Douglas Bywaters, on behalf of the WMS, presented Mrs. Maples a silver tray. The men’s group gave the Reverend a gift certificate, presented by Paul Miller, left. Housing Needs Stressed The need for housing in Rappahannock County, particularly for families with low and moderate incomes, has been brought out at county government meetings time and again over the past several months. A Regional Housing Plan released at last week’s meeting of the Rappahannock-Rapid an Planning District Commission further emphasizes this need. According to the report, Rappahannock leads all other jurisdictions in the Planning District in percentage of substandard housing. As determined by the 1970 U. S. Censu, 38.7 per cent of the county’s units fail to meet minimum standards based on lack of plumbing facilities and overcrowding. Housing of any type is hard to come by in the county. According to a profile of vacant housing units included in the report, the vacancy rate on houses for sale was .28 per cent and for rent vacancy rate was 3.70 per cent in Rappahnnock in 1970. “While obviously, the data are somewhat outdated, it can be assumed that the situation is at present much the same,” states the report. AMONG THE BLOOD DONORS who visited the mini-mobile in Washington recently were Mr. and Mrs. Larry Welch of Flint Hill who made it a family affair. In excess of forty donors presented themselves at the bloodmobile and 33 units of blood were collected, some specified for a Flint Hill resident who will undergo surgery. Assertions that the younger generation is becoming “extinct” in the county appear to be born out by data on age distribution. In the Planning District, Rappahannock, with 17 per cent, has the highest percentage of population over 60 years of age. Twenty-one per cent of county residents are between 20 and 40 years of age, 40 per cent between 40 and 70 years or older and 39.1 per cent between one and 20 years of age. These age distribution statistics become “significant when it is remembered that the young and the old are generally dependent, nonworking members of the community. A relatively low percentage of working people in an area usually indicates that per capita income will be low and that the general economic and housing vitality of the area will not be on a par with other areas,” states the report. It goes on to say that a large top and bottom age distribution pattern is typical for many rural areas. “It is probable that this pattern has been changing in the last ten years; however, this is only beginning to show in population figures. As primary roads in the District have improved, the commuting work force has increased rapidly. This means that people who might have moved out of the District can now continue to live there while working elsewhere. It also indicates that people presently employed outside the District can reside in the District.” According to the Housing Plan, Rappahannock has the highest percentage of families below the national poverty level in the Planning District. On the basis of 1970 U.S. Census reports, 403 families, or 30.5 per cent, have incomes below poverty status. The average income for those families was $2,192. The average income for all families in the county was $7,201. (The Rappahannock Social Services Department reports that only 97 households out of all below poverty level were participating in the Food Stamp program at the end of May, 1977.) Between 1970 and 1975, Rappahannock County authorized 393 single family housing units, nine multifamily units and two mobile units for the lowest total of the Planning District. In the District as a whole, 6,556 units were authorized. In value, these units amounted to over 141 million dollars, or roughly $21,533 per unit. Planning Commission staffer David Marshall, who prepared the Housing Plan, emphasized that the value per unit did not include lot price and noted that .both mttWi-faiaflly junits nr; and mobile homes were included in the average. He added that he expected the current median price of new homes in the Planning District to be somewhere around the national average of $44,200 in 1976. “Land values have had a iramatic impact in recent fears on the cost of new lousing. During the past lecade raw land has been the fastest rising element in the price of new housing,” the report states. “This is particularly significant when considering that land values generally have a multiplier effect on the total cost of construction in that developers tend to locate more expensive homes on higher priced land. Raw land is typically estimated to represent about 10 per cent of the total outlay for new housing.” The report goes on to say that building materials are the single most costly component of new housing, Mini-Bloodmobile Collections Good The Mini-Mobile recently stationed by the Red Cross at the Episcopal Church in Washington, Va., was a great success according to Mrs. Grace Hibbard, the Exec. Director of the Fauquier Chapter of the American Red Cross Association. Forty-two people came throughout the day to give blood donations and of those forty-two, thirty-three units of blood were received. "It was a splendid operation,"..."beautifully done,” said Mrs. Hibbard who continued to report that this year’s Bloodmobile received the largest number of donors from the Rappahannock area in years. The special request for blood for B. J. Wood who will have open heart surgery next week was answered abundantly. Though only 12 units of blood were needed, it was approximated that about 15 units were received. The 'Red Cross chapter would like to extend a grateful note of thanks to all those who made the recent bloodmobile such a great success. amounting to approximately 35 per cent of costs while the price of labor amounts to about 20 per cent of the total. According to the Housing Plan, Rappahannock County will require 478 additional housing units between 1975 and 1980, amounting to six per cent of the District’s future housing needs. To assist in the reduction of housing costs, the report makes several recommendations that can be introduced at a local and regional level: + Code revision and uniformity of residential zoning and subdivision regulations to make for a more efficient relationship between local government, lawyers, architects, builders, financiers and citizens. + Adoption of consistent regional building, housing, plumbing and electrical codes. , , j , , s !,+,< jSuppJLyn of smaller lots—one acre or less—zoned for residential units and in compliance with' local comprehensive plans. Because large lot zoning substantially adds to building prices, availability of smaller lots should permit more households to enter the market. + Site and construction flexibility to allow for cluster development alternatives. + Site and construction, flexibility to allow for cluster development alternatives. + Wide range of housing types to encourage multifamily units compatible with a rural setting. When Marshall presented the Housing Plan to the Rappahannock-Rapid an Planning District Commissioners, he emphasized that it is intended as a guideline and framework for future endeavers in housing. “It’s up to the counties to decide how to assimilate and use the data,’’ added Chairman Pete Luke. To The Editor Prevent Grime To the editor: The patrolling of the highways and secondary roads in Rappahannock County is certainly an important function of our sheriff and his deputies. And one due the taxpayers. Surely it is as important to prevent crime as it is to catch tl\e criminal after the crime' is committed—if not more so. Questioning the charges submitted by the SherrifPs Department to cover 'mileage for such patrolling seems completely out of order and a form of harrassment. It is a comforting feeling to know that our scattered homes are of concern to our peace officers—a service most of us have taken for granted up to now and one we certainly do not wish to lose. MRS. HARALD HAVSTAD Breidablikk, Sperryville Dogs Wanted The Department of State Police is looking for some very special “recruits” —German Shepherds to become a part of its Canine Program. Originating in 1961 with five handlers and their dogs, the program now consists of twelve handlers and dogs. There are two handlers and dogs stationed at each of the Department’s six field Hivicinnc According to Colonel D. M. Slane, “The use of dogs by the State Police has proven to be extremely successful. They are a valuable asset in many facets of law enforcement.” The Department is requesting that persons owning German Shepherds which appear to meet the required specifications and who would like to donate or sell these dogs to the Department contact either ^ * (the State Police office nearest them or the State Police Training School in Richmond. Only male German Shepherds are used by the State Police and they must be registered with the American Kennel Club. Other specifications are that the dogs be: between one year and 18 months of age, a minimum of 70 pounds in weight, at least 25 inches in height at the shoulders, predominantly dark in color, with erect ears and of excellent mental and physical health. Once an interested dog owner has contacted the State Police, a training instructor will visit the potential donor to view the dog. If the dog appears suitable for training, it will be taken to a local veterinarian for physical examination. If the animal is then considered acceptable, the owner signs an agreement to donate or sell the dog to the Department. RCHS Track Fund Drive The Panther Athletic League has made a fine beginning in efforts to raise TRACK GOAL for clearing and grading $5,000 $1,000 The Little Fox I ?/o*dly $5,000 to pay for clearing and grading of property at Rappahannock High School for a track. Approximately SI,000 was netted by track team members at a benefit polo game held June 19 at Pannon Field. But members of the League stress that SI,000 is just a beginning in the fund drive and all S5.000 must be in hand before construction is begun—hopefully in time for the coming track season. The League will have a booth at upcoming Fourth of July festivities on the porch of the Extension Office in Washington next to the Court House, selling hotdogs, drinks and bake sale items. League members urge county residents to be a “PAL”—eat and drink at the Panther League booth and support-a efforts to build a track at RCHS. Surgery for joints damaged by arthritis is one of the major medical breakthroughs in recent years, reports The Arthritis Foundation. Today, doctors are able to replace hips, knees, wrists and elbows with artificial joints.

Ik PERSONAL IN MEMORIAL In loving memory of our husband, father, and grandfather, Charles A. Williams, Sr., who departed this life four years ago, June 26, 1973. Four years seem like an eternity Since he left us all here. The emptiness that is felt so much on very special occasions than on others: The smile we saw each morning and night; The shoulder that was always there when a problem had to be shared; The concern he felt for others. All these things hold loving memories for our dad, husband, and grandfather. The never doubting assurance he had that some day he would be with his Heavenly Father when he said, "I'm going to hold out and see what the end will be." We will join him someday in his beautiful new home And be reunited forever more. —His Wife, Children, and Grandchildren PARENTS: Summer Day Care for toddlers and up. 9-5, Mon., Tues., Wed. 75 cents hour.
