He was fatally injured early Sunday in a car accident. Car accident kills 16-year-old boy Virginia State Police continue investigation into Castleton crash Bv Roger Piantadosi Rappahannock News Staff Writer As family and friends struggle to come to terms with the loss of a well-liked Rappahannock County High School junior and football player, Virginia State Police continue to investigate the single-vehicle accident in which Logan McKieman, 16, died as a passenger early Sunday in Castleton. During the 2:15 a m., crash on Whorton Hollow Road, Logan was injured when the 2002 Ford F-250 pickup swerved off the road striking a poplar tree and overturning He was on the passenger side closest to the impact. Following the crash, the other two occupants, a 17-year-old driver and another passenger, also 16. were treated for less serious injuries at Fauquier Hospital, state police spokesman Sgt. Les Tyler said. < Because they are juveniles under the age of 18, the two cannot be identified by the Rappahannock News.) Amissville Volunteer Fire and Rescue transported all three crash victims to the hospital, where Logan was pronounced dead. All three were wearing seatbelts, Tyler said “Alcohol appears to be a factor in the crash,” he said, but would not elaborate, cit ing the ongoing investigation by Trooper B.R. Johnson. Logan’s death comes less than six years after the death of another RCHS student, 16-year-old Dylan Corbin, in a car accident. Corbin, also a football player, was killed over the Christmas holidays in December 2003 when the car driven bv his brother, Nathan, then 18, ran off US. 522 south of Woodville, also striking a tree on the passenger side. Six years earlier. Flint Hill 18-year-old Mary Beth Williams died when a car driven by Tori Leigh Smoot. 17, of Rixeyville. slammed into a large walnut tree on Route 729 in Amissville. Smoot also died of injuries sustained in the crash “Every five or six years, we seem to lose one of our kids this way, and it's an awful shame,” said an Amissville rescue squad member who was at the scene, and who asked to remain anonymous. The Ford pickup in which the three were traveling, apparently shortly after leaving a friend’s house nearby (according to McKieman family members and others', was heading north on Whorton Hollow Road. At a curve just north of Lizzie Mills Rond, skid marks can he seen where the truck suddenly veered sharply off the road. There were reports that a deer had been in the road; Tyler would not confirm this. Meanwhile, the community mourns the loss of another of its young, promising highschoolers, and has come together since Sunday to try to bring comfort, and more practical offerings, to Logan's many friends, and to his family - including his parents, Kimberly and Michael McKieman, and his younger brother. Aidan, 8. “I am just absolutely blown away by our community." said Kim McKieman in an interview. “The support, and the meals, and the company, and the concern and . . . emotion. Logan was so well-loved and respecti-d by his peers. And that's the way I'm looking at this. Logan was smart and beautiful and he was a shooting star."

There he was sitting there wearing the type of mask many people use* to prevent contracting such illnesses as the flu After 29 years of teach ing. Van Horn, whose first block English class includes several football players, decided to play along with McKieman. “I looked at him, and I said. ‘Logan, do you have H1N1? Are you telling as something?’ ” McKieman responded, "1 just like wearing i the mask)" There were some giggles. Even Van Horn smiled She told him to keep the mask on. "That was typical Logan.” Van Horn said. “He was one* of those students you felt you knew vour w holelife He- was funny He was smart He was charming. He was a prankster, but he was alw ays very endearing.” Van Horn joined fellowteachers, students and community residents at the high school in mourning the loss of McKitrnah. 16. who die-d early Sunday morning as a passenger in a single-vehicle crash near Castle-ton Monday morning, the shock of McKieman's death rocked the school About 200 of the school’s 379 students and teachers filed into the gymnasium for a spe-cial prayer time with members of Kize lTp, a student-led Christian group, and several area ministers Some students clung to each other and wept openly.

Supervisors ask county residents for answer at upcoming hearing By RoCKR Pl.WTADOSI Rappahannock News Stall Writer To save money and repair the bridge sooner, the Virginia Department of Transportation has asked for Rappahannock County’s blessing nn closing-down Route 729, Richmond Road, for the three to four months it will take to rebuild the bridge over Battle Rim. in 2012 or 20Id. The Board of Supervisors elected Monday not to agree to VDOT's request until it first checks with county residents. A “public airing” of the matter is scheduled for 2 p.m on Nov. 2 at the courthouse, as part of the supervisors’ regular monthly meeting The VDOT request to close Richmond Road at Meadow Grove Farm appears to be another side effect of the state’s overall belt-tightening. “The state's estimate of $2 9 million to repair the bridge includes $200,000 to $300,000 to build a temporary' bypass while the original bridge is closed-” County Administrator John W. McCarthy told the board at its afternoon meeting Monday "Basically they only have $2 5 million in the current budget for this project." McCarthy said, “and they an' asking our help in staging the repair without the bypass. If we insist on not having the road he closed, they say they can't do the bridge, work for another five or six years." Supervisors agreed with McCarthy's Recommendation that the bridge repair should be done in summer, during the sch<x>l break. Approves festival growth And, in approving at its evening meeting Monday a zoning exception that allows the organizers of the Castleton Festival to double tin number of patrons allowed at one time from 200 to 400, the board requested that the Maazel family and festival organizers coordinate their promotional materials with McCarthy's office - if indeed Route 729 is closed to traffic during that See BOARD.

Planners OK hospice center By Don Del Rosso Rappahannock News Staff Writer Hospice of the Rapidan has cleared its first “hurdle” toward building a care center for the terminally ill near Sumerduck which would serve Rappahannock residents. Fauquier’s planning commission on Sept. 24 unanimously recommended that the county board of supervisors approve the project. The board probably will hold a November public hearing on the proposal. Hospice executive director Kathy Clements declared herself “surprised” and “pleased” because the commission seldom acts so swiftly on an application. It typically postpones decisions on applications and continues public hearings on them until the next month and often beyond. In the hospice center’s case, the commission held a brief hearing on the proposal and minutes later enthusiastically backed it. “I hope this facility will be built in Lee District,” said planning commissioner John Candidates’ Forum The Rappahannock News is sponsoring a Candidates' Forum on Monday, Oct. 26 at 7:30 p.m., at the Theatre on Gay Street in Washington. Citizens can email questions to the Rappahannock News to be asked of the four candidates running for two of the seats on the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors in the November election. Email the editor Mary Ann Kuhn: mkuhn@ timespapers.com Meetings and Notices • Rappahannock Rapidan Community Services Board and Area Agency on Aging transportation services will not operate Oct. 12 in observance of Columbus Day. • Rappahannock County government offices, the Rappahannock National Bank.

The regularly scheduled School Board meeting will follow with a closed session at 7 p.m., and an open session at 7:30 p.m. • On Oct. 14, the Washington Town Council will hold a joint public hearing with the Planning Commission at 7:30 p.m. at Town Hall to consider adoption of two ordinance amendments. Following that, the Town Council will hold a public hearing on a Special Use permit request by Rappahannock County to construct an Emergency Radio Tower. It also will consider the Rappahannock Historical Society water tap request. Meadows, who represents the district and Sumerduck. Meadows praised Robert and Betty Niles, who agreed to donate 14.6 acres on Royalls Mill Road for the hospice center. So did planning commission chairman Jim Stone (Cedar Run District). “You’ve got stars in your crowns,” Stone told the couple, who attended the commission hearing at the Warren Green Building in Warrenton. “I’m taking one hurdle at a time, and hopefully that’s one hurdle toward building a hospice center,” Clements said of the commission’s endorsement. “We have a timetable of about a year to get the site plan developed.” Then the hospice will “gear up a capital campaign to raise money to build this,” she said. It may cost $3.5 to $5 million to build the center, according to Clements. “But hopefully it will be lower than that,” she said. “Fundraising” experts advise her it would take about two years to raise enough money to build the center. The hospice has no construction schedule or approximate opening date for the center, Clements said. Based in Culpeper, the 26year old hospice serves about 300 terminally ill people in the area, half of them Fauquier residents. The planned, two-story residential-style hospice center would include 10 beds, offices, a kitchen, a dining room and meeting space for counseling family members of clients. Up to six hospice staff would work at the center, plus two professionals who would be there around the clock. Two hospice workers would be at the center around the clock. Most of the organization’s administrative staff would remain in Culpeper, Clements said. For years. Hospice of Rapidan believed its service area (Fauquier, Culpeper, Madison, Orange and Rappahannock counties) needed a care center.

Audit Bureau of Circulations www.rappnews.com CAC THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2009 Shoot for a lower price If we needed yet another example of what’s wrong with health care in this country, we got it. Sharing the headlines with reform this summer has been concern about the H1N1 — better known as swine flu — virus. As fall arrives, health officials are worried that the highly contagious and potentially deadly virus could mean big problems. Drug companies have come up with a vaccine that will be available to those most susceptible to the virus in a week or so. Our government paid for those vaccines. Or, put more accurately, we paid for those vaccines with our tax dollars. Earlier this summer, the Department of Health and Human Services announced the availability of $350 million in grants to help states prepare for HINI and the fall flu season. A total of $260 million in public health emergency response grants will go to local agencies, like health departments, to help with things like vaccination campaigns. Ninety million dollars in hospital preparedness grants will be distributed nationwide to help those institutions ready for a potential surge in patients an outbreak could cause. These millions are in addition to whatever sum Uncle Sam is paying the five companies it hired to produce the actual vaccine. That the government would use our money to help protect us from a pandemic flu seems appropriate and logical. That the amounts are staggering is evident. Doctors will receive the vaccine, along with syringes and other necessary supplies, free of charge. Here’s the rub. Even though, from what we can tell, the heavy lifting to deliver this shot to the public has been done by the federal government, health care providers will, in all likelihood, collect a fee for the service. While doctors cannot charge for the vaccine itself, so far the government has not yet set any limits on what health care providers can charge in administrative fees associated with giving the vaccine. That leaves the doctors in the driver’s seat when it comes to setting a price for the administration of the shots. One area doctor’s office we spoke with last week said that patients would pay their copay. The problem with this standard operating procedure is that except for five minutes of a nurse’s time and a little paperwork, the shot isn’t costing the doctors a thing. The $20 co-pay that millions of Americans have grown used to paying is an opportunity for physicians to profit at a staggering level. Doctors should assess the true cost of giving the shot and offer it at rock bottom prices. The nurses and office staff are being paid for their time and, in all honesty, everything else even remotely associated with this vaccine has already been paid for by taxpayers. Setting the price at $5 a shot certainly wouldn’t do any harm to the doctors’ bottom line. It could be a real shot in the arm for their financially challenged patients. Letters ‘We all loved Logan and will truly miss him’ Even though we are no longer enrolled as students of Rappahannock County High School, and our bodies are in different cities, our hearts still remain in Rappahannock County. As graduates from this small county, we send our thoughts and prayers to all our friends and family who are grieving the loss of Logan McKieman, such an amazing, young, and laving person. We speak for the class of 2009 when we say that we are extremely blessed to come from such a beautiful county where everyone sincerely cares about one another In this time of sadness, the power of this unique relationship is magnified. As we all gather this Saturday to mourn the loss of a dear friend, we will all have memories of Logan running through our minds. He was just the kind of kid who made an impression on everyone he met. We all loved Logan and will truly miss him. We will never forget him and his impact on our community during his time with us. We all always will remember #20. Rappahannock, remember forever, as one, the great spirit that was Logan. A.J.

Farm Tour successful ‘on many, many different levels’ My apple orchard is very small and very unique in that it is an apple orchard with over 400 varieties of antique apples. My dad left this orchard to me and my husband very suddenly and unexpectedly about three years ago. Dennis and I were totally unprepared to take over the orchard and were not able to care for it. Then in 2008 Dennis died after a short and fast battle with cancer. At the beginning of the year I was extremely fortunate to find Bryan Lilly of Natural Elements who realized the treasure of my legacy and was very enthusi astic about my orchard. Bryan and I decided to bring back the orchard and place it on the Rappahannock Farm Tour weekend and we wyorked hard. This weekend was so successful for us that we have started making grand plans for the growth of the orchard and for many future years on the farm tour. We had over 120 guests coming from Bethesda, D C., Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church, Centreville, Gainesville and from around this area.

These people came from out of town and brought with them friends visiting from Chad, Africa. They heard of the tour from a Saturday visitor who e-mailed to her friends about the Rappahannock Farm Tour weekend. All this proves how successful the tour was on many, many different levels.

I’ve been surprised and saddened to learn that many feel Tom Junk, candidate for supervisor for the Piedmont District, is hostile to our schools and teachers. This idea is completely wrong. Tom has been outspoken and tireless in insisting that taxpayer monies be spent properly and sensibly, in the schools and elsewhere. Expecting that public money be handled with care and caution is no reason to assume the questioner is hostile to any program. I’ve come to know Tom Junk fairly well recently while he wras assisting me in dealing with the considerable damage caused by swarms of voracious carpenter bees and a hungry woodpecker. From my many discussions with him, I know that Tom is as aware as anyone of the need for excellent schools with able and dedicated teachers to provide for the best education for our children. He is in NO way the enemy he has been portrayed. Sensible and keen to see that tax money is well spent, Tom would be an excellent supervisor. Indeed, he would be even more useful in Richmond and Washington where those traits are even more unusual. So, fellow citizens, I urge you to give Tom Junk your consideration and support in the coming election. He deserves it and we will all benefit, most of all our children John L.

Please deliver meals in containers that do not need to be returned to you. Logan From Page A1 secretory glands. ' “He didn’t let it slow him down” his father said. “He’d even come home from football, from a game, and he’d do PT [a specific type of physical therapy to keep the lungs clear]. He had a pretty good outlook. Early on, it was, 'Why did God do this to me?’ I told him, ‘It’s because you are strong enough to deal with it.’ “He definitely came to terms, I think, with his own mortality a lot quicker than most of us have to. “Words don’t even come close to describing how wonderful he was," Michael McKieman says of his son, his voice breaking. “He was not only my firstborn son, he was just so much more - he was my best friend, my buddy.” The McKiemans have made a point of having all Logan’s friends over since the weekend. “There were, like, 45 teenagers here yesterday," she said. “I want people to know that we’re here and I want them to be comfortable coming here.” That has included, the last few days, she said, the two other boys who were in the truck with Logan. “I’m glad they’re here,” said Kim. “I’m worried about them, about what they’re going to have to deal with for the rest of their lives - and what they saw • . We’ve asked a few questions, but none of us really feels ready to get into that.” “I definitely made it a point to take both of them aside,” said Michael McKieman in an interview at the home Wednesday. “And I put my hands on their shoulders and said, ‘I have to have all the answers. I have lots of questions and I . .. have to - and, you know, you owe it to Logan.’ “Me personally. I’m not even looking to place blame,” he said. “I just want to know - and, well, I know we all make mistakes, and we do things that we wish we hadn't done. I just hope the boys don't... that it doesn’t ruin their lives * “We keep telling them,” Kim said, “all of them, the teenagers, to do good things with their lives. If not for themselves, for Logan.” His mother says Logan stopped in, or called, almost everyone who was important to him on Saturday - including his Dad, who hed tracked down at Rae’s restaurant in Sperryville. “He said, ‘I love you. Dad,’ and he gave me a hug.” . Logan telephoned his friends late Saturday night and as late as 2 a.m. Sunday - 15 minutes before the accident - just to talk, several of his friends said. On Monday afternoon, as many of Logan’s friends gathered at the crash site on Whorton Hollow Road, the group w'ound up sitting in a circle in the field beyond the poplar tree where the truck had come to rest. Many were crying as they remembered their friend. “And this black Lab came out of nowhere,” said Sophie Krometis, 16. “And he w'as just leaping all around, and happy, and he came right up to me, and stared at me for a second, and then licked me. And he went around the circle and, one at a time, did the same to everyone.” Someone started calling the dog “Logan” said Kathy Krometis, Sophie's mother. “And within a few minutes," she said, “the tears wrere pretty much replaced with smiles, and laughter. “It was as if he was there to tell his friends that he was all right, and to be happy for him.” At the high school, where the flag has flown at half-mast and “We Love You, Logan” has appeared on the announcement board on U.S. 211 all week, a visitor Monday said they’d never witnessed such a quiet change of classes. “The bell rang, and everybody came out into the hall, and ... it was completely quiet." As you enter the high school, Dylan Corbin's retired football jersey in the trophy case is one of the first thmgs visitors notice. A quarterback, Corbin's number was number 19. McKieman, a wide receiver, wore the number 20. School From Page A1 "Logan was an intelligent, fun loving student/athlete that will be missed in more wav's than one,” said RCHS principal Adam Burket. “His presence always was a positive influence and made people smile on a regular basis. 1 will miss his effervescent personality greatly" On a locker in the main hallway a simple sign read, “Logan McKieman #20 RIP Well See You Again Someday." Members of the Class of 2009 quickly paid tribute to McKieman using Face book. Matt Frye, a close friend of McKieman’s, started a Facebook page in his memory. By Tuesday night, more than 430 persons had joined. Emily Spivey and Elizabeth \IV1.L ...L . I :L. University, posted a 20-second video professing how much they loved McKieman. w hile A j Collins left this as his message from the University of Alabama Sunday night. “RIP Logan. And Rapp — never forget that no matter where we are. who we are, what we do, we are Rapp And we support each other in all circumstances, good and bad Even though my body resides tonight in Tuscaloosa, with no doubt, mv heart is sleeping in Amissville." A group of Rich Hogan’s shop students worked for'three hours designing a marker depicting McKieman’s jersey number 20 by welding together horseshoes. They later painted the finished product and senior Robert Falls drove it out to the crash site on VVhorton HollowRoad and placed it there Students in the yearbook class and art dub joined forces to make remembrance buttons that read. "RIP, Logan.” English teacher Melissa Delcour donned the button that read, “Emily, Dylan, Logan.” It paid tribute to Emily Hilseher, a 2006 RCHS graduate killed in the shootings at Virginia Tech in April 2007, and Dylan Corbin, a football player who dud in an automobile crash during the Christinas holidays in 2003. A good kid. Charming. Loving. Funny Smart. A great friend. Always sincere. Enthusiastic. A g<x:>d teammate. Those were just some of the words and phrases that Rappahannock County students and teachers used to describe McKieman, as they turned their grief into memories that made them smile. McKieman, Business teacher Lisa Jones said, gave outstanding presentations to her business classes. Not only did he know his subject material, he could “sell" it to his classmates. “He would have thrived in the business world," she added. “He had a presence that people looked up to." Senior Allie Dore, one of the captains of the cheerleading squad, thought there was only one word to describe McKieman. "Amazing," she said with a huge grin “Logan lived an amazing 16 years. He had had cystic fibrosis, and he never complained about it. He didn't live life as a sick child. He played football He made us laugh. The other day when we were losing, 49-0, there was Logan screaming, ‘Come on. Let's kill someone.’" And McKieman’s marvelous sense of humor was something that everyone shared. Darlene Mathieson had him in her freshman English class. “You know, we were Irish, and we picked on each other about it," she said. “He would throw Irish jokes at me, and I'd throw them right back at him, and everything would be good. Logan had such great wit... and an ornery grin." McKieman, Mathieson said, especially loved the Liam O'Flaherty short story, “The Shooter," which deals with the struggles and conflicts that Ireland faces. “Logan could not understand why people had to fight all the time," she added. That sensitive, caring side that McKieman had came out in Pamela Chovnick-Moore's Spanish classes. “While Logan sought to make us all laugh in Spanish I and II, he also had a sweet, sensitive and sincere side," she said. “When I told Logan's class that I was going to have a baby boy, Logan immediately asked to go to the bathroom and came back (instead, from the art room) with a painted congratulatory poster for me. That was Logan." Spivey said in an e-mail that McKieman will not be forgotten. “This is what 1 think of when I think of Logan," she wrote, “Philippians 1:3 says, i thank my God upon every remembrance of you.'"

Board From Page A1 year’s classical music festival. Regional Jail The lack of state funds, or doubt about their availability, also colored a discussion preced mg the board’s vote to take the first major step toward joining a regional jail authority with Warren and Shenandoah counties. “I’m not saying this is a wonderful option," McCarthy told the board, after several supervisors expressed concern about what might happen if the state, for whatever reason, ever reneged on its commitment to pay for half of the projected $64 million facility. “But it is the best we have of several bad options." McCarthy and Commonwealth's Attorney Peter Luke explained that the only cost the county might incur, should the state back out, was its share of Warren County’s upcoming Fraxel re:pair' Tins fractionated C02 laser tightens the skin wmie improving deeper wrinkles ana sun damage.

Rappahannock’s share in the authority, based on a recent reevaluation of prisoner counts that excludes those housed on behalf of other jurisdictions, is now 5 to 7 percent, McCarthy said - down from the original 11 percent. Renovating the existing jail, McCarthy has said, would be expensive, because of HistoricDistrict concerns and the sheriff's need for more office space.

The board voted unanimously to move ahead with creation of the RSVV Regional Adult Detention Authority, and the construction of its more than 300-bed facility, most likely in Warren County, north of Front Royal, pending state funding. Shenandoah County s supervisors approved the same resolution 5-1 last week; Warren County’s board passed it unanimously Tuesday morning. The jail is not expected to open until 2014 but McCarthy said delays in state funding could push that date back another year or two. The board’s final budget related discussion Monday afternoon came in approving McCarthy’s proposed distribution of an additional $71,000 in budget cuts parsed on by the state last month. . Spending reductions in various county departments and programs, including a suspension of the county’s Farmland Protection Program, account for 45 percent of the cuts proposed by McCarthy who recommended making up the difference with appropriations from the general fund. "If the cuts continue," he said, “at this point forward, it's going to start costing us people," McCarthy said, referring to personnel reductions the county has thus far managed through attrition and cuts in part-time hours. Board Chairman Robert Anderson said he thought McCarthy's budget cuts, while painful, seemed fairly distributed. “Looks like every body is taking a pretty good hit," he said. Address ordinance The board decided to spend some time promoting, rather than passing immediately, a new uniform address ordinance which requires property owners to have street addresses displayed in three-inch-high, reflective numbers, as requested by the county’s emergency - services offices. Notices will be sent out with the next property tax bills, McCarthy said, explaining the the county’s intention to standardize its street address displays, among other measures, to familiarize property owners with the program.

Foley From Page A1 His new schedule also will permit him and his wife Janice to visit their two grandchildren in Richmond more often and take more sight-seeing day trips in Virginia and Washington, D C. Foley knew his fourth, sixyear, term would be his last. Virginia judges must retire at 70. Foley turns 64 next August, five months after another term would commence. General district court judges handle civil, criminal and traffic cases. Traffic cases represent the bulk of the general district court. Foley issues about one letter opinion per month and decides all other cases immediately after hearing arguments. Tm the guy who makes the decisions and imposes the sentences,” said Foley, who oversees a staff of seven and conducts court in Rappahannock on the first three Tuesdays of the month. As judge, Foley said he has two responsibilities: to determine guilt or innocence and impose sentences. Deciding guilt or innocence “I’ve found, over the years, is the easy part of the job,” he said during an interview in his tiny and memorabilia-stuffed groundfloor courthouse office at 6 Court St., Warrenton. “The hardest part is the sentencing phase or ‘What the hell do I do with you7’” It would be easy to “warehouse” offenders, but he prefers them to perform community service and make restitution, when appropriate, to putting them in jail, Foley said. Ride From Page A1 Sunday. 9 a m. to 4 p.m., and all rides start and end at the parking area. Bring your horse and a current Coggins certificate. Rough camping is free and available for Friday and Saturday nights and is in the field near the ride check-in area.

The dinner will be held from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.. with bluegrass music by the Shenandoah Travelers. The one-day trail nde is $40; the two-day trail ride is $60. Children age 10 and under are half price. If you do the one or two-day ride, the dinner and music are $15. If you don't ride, but want to partake of the food and music, the cost is $20. Please make your reservations early. To get an application for the trail ride, call Deborah Miloslavich at 540636-9713, or Janet Borden at 540-636-7731.

Occasionally, he’ll hear from people who thank him for a tough sentence that turned their lives around. A couple of months ago, a man whom Foley had sent to jail approached the judge outside the courthouse during a break between trials. “I’m doing fine,”1 Foley said the man told him. “That [jail sentence] was all I needed. I’ve got at good job. I got married.’ You don’t hear too many of those. There maybe more out there than you know, and you hope so.” He’s also received a few threats because of sentences he’s given that angered the convicted or their family members. In some ways, Foley views himself as an educator obliged to explain clearly to the accused the cause-and-effect relationship between their crime and its consequences. “Whether the person wins or loses, when they walk out of that door I want them to at least understand why they won or lost," he said. Possible successors In addition to Baumgardner, Warrenton lawyer T. Huntley Thorpe Ill's name repeatedly pops up as a possible candidate. “At this point I am not inter ested" in the judgeship, Thorpe said. “I may be in the future. It's just not the right time for me now. I’ve got some major •things going on in my practice and other personal reasons.” Warrenton lawyer Jud A. Fischel refused to say whether he would pursue the job. “It’s way premature to even talk about it,” Fischel said several weeks ago. “It’s premature to even think about it.” Fauquier Commonwealth’s Attorney Jonathan S. Lynn and Fauquier Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court Judge J. Gregory Ash well, who are both mentioned as possible successors to Foley, couldn't be reached for comment.

Bernard iBarnev) Vierline. bought the house in 1958. Laura remembers coming “out to the country' as a young girl, to visit the house for gatherings of family and close friends. “Most of the rooms were used as bedrooms then.” she recalls, “to accommodate the visitors' A fire caused by lightning in 1974 caused some damage to the stucco wing of the house which was built over the original structure. The house was updated at that time.

RICHES Christopher Columbus was a most determined individual - he was looking for riches to honor the King and Queen of Spain. Beyond riches, he wanted to fulfill a religious quest and bring Christianity to unknown parts of the world. Though Columbus did not realize either goal, he ultimately found "riches" beyond measure when he landed on our shores. If he had given up. we might not be living in this land of opportunity' God has plans for us when we have faith m Him and seek to discover His will tor our lives. We must not become discouraged when We do not meet our goals, for our Creator guides us to greater rewards when we follow Him. We read in Hebrews 10:35-36..."So do not throw away your confidence: it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done ft the will of God. you will receive what He has promised. ' Won t you worship this week? When you discover your faitfi in God. your rewards wilt be priceless.
