While Bobby received numerous awards and recognitions throughout his career, the following are a select few: Recognition of Service to the Appalachian communities through his tenure with Ohio University, by Sherrod Brown, United States Senator. Proclamation of years of service leadership to Appalachia Ohio, by Bill Johnson, Member of Congress. Recognition upon retirement; services to the State of Ohio, by John R. Kasich, Governor and Mary Taylor, Lieutenant Governor. Special Recognition to the appointment of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday Commission, by Ryan Smith, Representative, House District 93. Appointments to the Ohio Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday - An Appalachian by birth, Bobby was dedicated to the Appalachian Region through his “known” heritage of ﬁve paternal generations Commission by Governor John Kasich. Certiﬁcate of Appreciation for contributions to community in history, music, civics and culture, 26th Black History Program, Reverend Christian Scott; and the Ohio University Administrative Service Award. He had a passion for the arts, arts of all kinds. A musician himself, he played percussion, and amassed a large collection of percussion instruments and others that he could not even play. He was an artist who loved to draw and take pictures. Bobby was a writer of poetry and short stories and a thespian who loved to be on stage and to direct. Of all the arts, singing was his passion, he could command the stage, move you to tears and mesmerize you with the lyrics. Not only was he a soloist, he performed with and directed many groups: Madrigals, Grande Choral, Youth United for Christ, Ordinary People, Christ Episcopal Church Choir, Gospel Harmony Boys and countless others. Bobby was a historian and diversity speaker who loved to trace his family history, interview family members and share this information with others. He was able to trace his family to the Civil War. Bobby’s passion was African American history and sharing his collection through “truck show” presentations. He amassed a large collection of African American artifacts, educational materials and regional history such as: shackles, slave papers, advertising, KKK items, Underground Railroad maps and much more that he has presented throughout the region. He was an avid antique collector preferring the Victorian and vintage eras that he loved to reﬁnish and restore. He loved collecting and what began as an individual love, became outings for Bobby and Sherry that transpired into a family affair. Due to his passion they all have become collectors. Many of his collections have been displayed at museums throughout the state and he was a major contributor of items during special events at Bob Evans and Chautauqua. With all of the accomplishments whether it be work, civic duties, committees, appointments from heads of states, his greatest and most cherished accomplishment was that of being a family man. Not only to his sons and wife but also to all of his relatives. Growing up as an only child many of his cousins became more like siblings to him. Those relationships remained strong throughout his life. However, with Bobby, you did not have to be a blood relative to be family. Dorothy Gordon was his mother but he was fortunate to have several other strong women that took him under their wing too: Jan Bergdoll, Joyce Thomas, Edie Ross, Anne Fischer, Beverly Wilson, Momma Jean Norman, along with family members Jackie Howard and Merle Howard who helped shape him into the man that he became. Many of you knew him by another name, some of these he received as a young child and others later in life: Robert, Bob, Bobby, Robby, Rob, Godzilla, Dad, Pops, Gordy, Dean, Bobby Dean, Bobby D, Bobby G, Mister G, PC, Babe, The Voice, Roberto, Gentle Giant and Kemosabi. And one day he was looking forward to adding Grandpa to the list. No matter how you referred to him, one thing was certain, he responded with a smile when he returned your greeting. He was loyal, devoted and a genuine friend having many relationships that were almost 50 years in length. He loved to laugh and enjoyed spending time just hanging out with his friends. He was a Christian man raised in the church and baptized at an early age. He was a lifelong member of Paint Creek Regular Baptist Church. He believed and trusted his faith. He shared his belief, mostly in song by providing special musical selections at many of the area churches on a regular basis. Robert D. Gordon touched many lives and has left us with wonderful memories to hold on to and he taught us many lessons along the way. He did all of this expecting nothing in return, but return he did get. His valiant battle was not lost because he was given three years on a journey that the experts said would be much, much less and he did so as he pulled from the strength of his faith, and the love of his family, his friends and his community to continue to be a part of the lives of many and for that we are grateful and will forever be Gordon Strong. “To those who were a part of my journey, I am grateful for your kindness…To those who were not so kind, I thank you as well. You taught me to be patient, prevail against the darkness with my light and to stand up not only for myself, but also for those who have little to no voice.” Robert D. Gordon, April 28, 2018. Celebration of life services will be held Saturday, September 29, 2018 at the First Baptist Church in Gallipolis, with Pastor Christian Scott ofﬁciating. The family will receive friends and family beginning at 9:30 a.m. with services immediately following at 12:30 p.m. Interment will be at Pine Street Cemetery with arrangements and services being handled by Waugh-Halley-Wood Funeral Home. Pallbearers: Nathaniel Gordon, Christopher Gordon, Matthew Gordon, Aaron Saunders, Bryson Adkins, and Andy Howard. Honorary Pallbearers: Keith Wilson, John Dixon, David Sommerville, Paul “PJ” Gauze, Daniel Brown, David Robinson, Terence Hopkins, Dan Eplin and Andrew Carter. In lieu of ﬂowers, please make a contribution in Bobby’s honor to Gallia County Emancipation Committee or the Ohio Chautauqua - Gallipolis. #GordonStrong MARILYN JOYCE TURNER SANFORD — Marilyn Joyce Turner, of Sanford, died peacefully at age 81 on Sept. 25, 2018 at Peak Resources in Carthage, N.C. She was born on May 1, 1937, in Dyesville, Meigs County, Ohio, to Morgan Wayne Turner and Melva Radcliffe Turner. Marilyn had a very colorful life and always followed her heart wherever it took her. She was blessed with the most beautiful and rare contralto voice and started singing at age 2 in her little town of Rutland, Ohio, where she was a local celebrity. After attending the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, Ohio University, and the Manhattan School of music, she followed her dreams and traveled to Italy, where she lived for 35 years. She sang professionally for over 50 years, and worked with some great conductors including Jonel Perlea, Max Rudolf, Arthur Fiedler, and Leonard Bernstein. During her career in Italy she was the alto soloist for the SwissItalian Radio and TV of Lugano, and appeared in concerts and operas in Germany, Italy, and Greece. For 12 years she was the principal soloist with the Camerata Baroque Society of Cremona and was part of the vocal quintet “Madrigalisti di Milano” and toured Italy many times with those ensembles. For many years she was a vocal teacher and operatic coach in Milan and Lecco, both in music school and privately. She changed the lives of many students, and lovingly helped them discover the talent that was hiding behind insecurities and shyness. She also collaborated for a long time as a consultant and backup singer for a very famous Italian popstar, Franco Battiato. The last ﬁve years in Italy, she formed two gospel choirs and toured extensively with them, working both as conductor and arranger of their music. As the choirs grew more successful, she was able to introduce local people to the depth and soulfulness of Traditional Black Spirituals and Gospels and used music to connect and interact with the audience. She wrote poetry and lyrics and had started a book depicting quirky stories of her hometown and family. Marilyn is survived by: the biggest love of her life, daughter Giulia Murray of Sanford and her husband Kenneth; sister Brenda Chase of Columbus, Ohio; four nieces and two nephews and a multitude of cousins and friends. She was preceded in death by a brother, Blaine Jay Turner and a sister, Osa Marie Palmer of Sanford. A private graveside interment service will be held. In lieu of ﬂowers or cards, please consider donating to organizations which support what gave her a lot of joy in life: children and animals. A very special thank you goes to the wonderful staff at Tara Plantation and Peak Resources in Carthage. Your kindness and loving care will always be remembered.

When I was a kid, no summer was complete until all seven Fongs had piled into the family station wagon (which, by the way, had about three working seat belts), driven past the state correctional facility and arrived at Kings Island, where we showed up when the gates opened and stayed until the ﬁnal ﬁreworks had been ﬁred into the night sky. David Four 12 hours, my four siblings Fong and I would ride every roller coastContributing er we could, literally sprinting from columnist one line to another, lest we miss a single minute of coaster-riding time. Every few hours, my mom would try to throw food at us in hopes we would eat. More often than not, we could not be concerned with such things. We were there for the roller coasters and other thrill rides. We never went to Disney World or Cedar Point when I was a kid — but so long as I had Kings Island, I never felt like I was missing out on much of anything. To me, Kings Island had The Beast, The Vortex and The Racers. To me, Kings Island was the ultimate roller coaster mecca. These days, I kind of feel like Kings Island is a really amazing pizza place that just happens to be surrounded by a bunch of roller coasters. A few weeks ago, my wife and I took Sophie and Max to Kings Island over Labor Day weekend to close out the summer. We actually hadn’t been in a few years thanks to other family vacations, so the kids were brimming with excitement at the prospect of riding all of the same roller coasters — and many that didn’t exist when I was younger In addition to the — I had once coasters no longer being enjoyed. I, on the other big enough, they also are hand, was looka lot more painful than ing forward to I remember. I once rode the La Rosa’s The Vortex a dozen times pizza and blue in a row with no ill effects. ice cream cones. This, it These days, one ride on seems, is what pretty much any of them my life has makes my neck stiff, become. I’ve my head throb and my tried to ride all of the same stomach queasy for the coasters I once rest of the day. loved in recent years, only to ﬁnd that they have betrayed me. For starters, they made all of the seats on all of the coasters much smaller than they were when I was a teenager. I used to have plenty of room on all the coasters, but these days I’m ﬁnding the seats no longer have ample space for my posterior and the shoulder harnesses barely ﬁt over my stomach. I’ll assume there was some sort of engineering ﬂaw when they redesigned the coasters at some point. I can’t think of any other possibly explanation. In addition to the coasters no longer being big enough, they also are a lot more painful than I remember. I once rode The Vortex a dozen times in a row with no ill effects. These days, one ride on pretty much any of them makes my neck stiff, my head throb and my stomach queasy for the rest of the day. So at this point in my life, I’ve conceded. I’ve throw in the towel. The roller coasters have won. On our recent trip to Kings Island, I didn’t ride a single roller coaster. My wife rode a few of them, but she has given up on riding most of them as well. Otherwise, our battle plan consisted of this: putting our kids in line together, then walking around the park, people watching and feasting on La Rosa’s pizza and blue ice cream. After about an hour we’d head to the end of the ride to pick up our kids and escort them to the next ride. I remember when I was a kid, my parents would use pretty much the same tactic at Kings Island. I always felt a little sad for them, knowing they weren’t going to ride any roller coasters that day. I felt grateful they were making the ultimate sacriﬁce by taking all of us to Kings Island and not getting on any of the thrill rides. I truly believed they must have been miserable. Now that I’m on the other end, however, I know the truth. They were happy to see the looks of joy on their kids’ faces. They were probably glad to get some alone time with one another. And I bet they ate a lot of La Rosa’s pizza, too. Troy’s very own David Fong appears on Thursdays in the Troy Daily News.

Some crazy, some not-so-crazy. Some with minor problems, some meaner than a teased rattler. Some docile, some aggressive. I’ve seen Dobbies that would snuggle across your lap as you watch the evening news, and Dachshunds that’d just as soon bite your ankle as take another breath. I’ve worked with fencejumpers, fear and sneak biters, run-a-ways, car chasers, ﬁghters, chicken killers, incessant barkers, boundary breakers, and dogs that would attack anything on two legs. I’ve trained with traditional methods, with psychology, and hypnosis. I’ve known dogs, without professional training, that would give their life for their master. I’ve heard of dogs that come between their master and mistress during an argument, during play-time, and even while lying in bed watching TV. Surely, you’ve also heard of this type of canine behavior. I’ve trained dogs for the TV series “Movin’ On,” trained dogs to prevent break-ins at hotels, and trained them to protect Sisters of the Cloth.

Salisbury Township is believed to have gotten its name from Salisbury, England in Wiltshire County. Salisbury, England was settled at the conﬂuence of the rivers Avon, Nadder, Ebble, Wylye and Bourne. It’s believed, due to the similarities of conﬂuences, Salisbury Township was laid out where Kerrs Run, Naylors Run, Sugar Run, Africa Run (now Monkey Run), Leading Creek, and Story’s Run all meet at the Ohio River. Rutland Township was organized in 1812 and gets its name from Rutland, Massachusetts, the home of General Rufus Putnam. Rutland, Massachusetts was named in honor of the Duke of Rutland of England in 1686. When Rutland Township was originally surveyed, it was originally 36 square miles. When it was determined to organize Meigs County, it was feared that the area set aside would not meet the minimum number of square miles required (400 to 420 square miles) in each county.

Merrill named Dexter Creek after his former employer, paying homage to the business on water in which Dexter owned and Merrill made a life. Therefore, Dexter Creek was named ﬁrst, and the town Dexter was named after the creek. A year after Salem Township was settled, Wilkesville organized as a separate township. Sutton Township was organized in 1814 from part of Letart Township, and was established by the commissioners of Gallia County on October 21, 1817. Dr. Fuller Elliot suggested the name Sutton to the commissioners as a way of honoring his native New England town of Sutton, Massachusetts. The ﬁrst post ofﬁce was established at Graham Station (now Racine) in 1818 where Andrew Donnally was appointed the ﬁrst postmaster. Early on, Sutton Township’s villages were Graham Station, later named Racine, as well as Minersville, Syracuse, and Careltonville. MEIGS BRIEFS being conducted and charges may be pending.

Black walnut and cherry were used particularly for the making of cofﬁns in those early days. So these trees of Lebanon had special attractions to the commercial eyes of later emigrants. Salem Township, which originally included Wilkesville Township, now a part of Vinton County, was set off from Salisbury Township and organized in 1814. It is one of 14 townships in the state of Ohio bearing the name Salem, which comes from Salem, Massachusetts, home to many of the members of the Ohio Company Purchase. The ﬁrst settler of the eventual Salem Township was Captain James Merrill, a sea-faring man who commanded vessels owned by Timothy Dexter in the East India Trade. After years of service and growing weary of sea life, Dexter gave Merrill a farm and large tract of land from his share of the Ohio Company Purchase with the intention of having Merrill settle the land take an additional row of 12 sections from Gallia County (6 from Morgan Township and 6 from Cheshire Township) to give to Meigs County (6 in Salem Township and 6 in Rutland Township) to meet the required number of square miles needed. These additional sections were added in April of 1819. Lebanon Township was organized in 1813 and taken from Letart Township. Lebanon Township boasts the largest amount of Ohio River frontage with a total of 14.5 miles. The township earns the name Lebanon due to its dense forests at the time of its founding, and refers to biblical scripture. The cedar of Lebanon is mentioned 77 times in the Bible. According to Larkin’s Pioneer History of Meigs County, It was a dense forest at the time of its organization. Trees of great size, and timber of the ﬁnest quality, covered the rich bottom lands of the Ohio River and the creeks of Old Town and Groundhog, while the hills bore the best yellow pine and spruce for lumber.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The University of Rio Grande moved up one spot to No. 7 in the latest NAIA Men’s Soccer Coaches’ Top 25 Poll released Tuesday afternoon by the national ofﬁce. The RedStorm collected 391 points in the balloting of a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences, Association of Independent Institutions and Unafﬁliated Groups. Rio Grande (7-0), which blasted Indiana University East and Mount Vernon Nazarene University last week, is scheduled to return to action on Thursday when it visits Point Park University for the front end of a two-game River States Conference road swing. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. at Highmark Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pa. William Carey (Miss.) remained the top-ranked team in the poll as a result of receiving 16 of the 18 ﬁrst-place votes and 497 points in the balloting. Oklahoma Wesleyan climbed one position to the No. 2 spot after picking up the two remaining ﬁrst place nods and 483 points. The remainder of the top ﬁve includes the University of Mobile (453), Wayland Baptist, Texas (445) and Missouri Valley (444). Benedictine (Kan.) made the biggest jump of the week, going from unranked to No. 23. Georgia Gwinnett had the biggest drop for the week among the Top 25 teams, falling from 15th to a tie for 25th. Marymount (Calif.) and Keiser (Fla.) were the only teams to drop off the Top 25 list. In addition to Benedictine, No. 24 Southeastern (Fla.) and co-No. 25 Madonna (Mich.) were the other newcomers to the poll. One other River States Conference school - West Virginia University-Tech - received votes for a fourth straight week. The Rain postpones RSC Men’s Golf FLORENCE, Ind. — The River States Conference Men’s Golf Fall Preview Tournament, scheduled for Monday and Tuesday at the Belterra Golf Course, was postponed due to weather. The tournament has been rescheduled for Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 29-30, and will remain as 36 holes at the same venue. Heavy rains halted the ﬁrst round on Monday after just three holes for the earliest tee times. More rain forecast on the way called off the second round scheduled for Tuesday due to course conditions. The conference preview is a chance for the RSC teams to compete at the course that hosts the RSC Men’s Golf Championship in the spring. Rio’s Williamson honored by RSC MIDDLETOWN, Ohio - University of Rio Grande junior James Williamson racked up nine points in two games last week to claim the River States Conference Men’s Soccer Offensive Player of the Week Award for Sept. 17-23. Williamson, a native of San Jose, Costa Rica, led the No. 8-ranked RedStorm to a combined score of 17-0 in the two games on the week. In a 10-0 conference win over IU East, he scored a hat trick and also added an assist for seven points. He picked up two more points with a goal in a 7-0 victory over Mt. Vernon Nazarene. Rio Grande is now 7-0 overall, 1-0 RSC and has given up just one goal on the year. The RedStorm visits Point Park on Sept. 27 and Carlow on Sept. 29 for its next games. Daily Sentinel Blue Jackets aim for playoffs Future of franchise’s stars in doubt COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — So what’s going on with “Bob” and “Bread”? That question dominated the off-season discussion around the Columbus Blue Jackets, overshadowing everything else surrounding a team coming off consecutive playoff appearances for the ﬁrst time in franchise history. A legitimate inquiry for sure, considering Bob and Bread — otherwise known as goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky and forward Artemi Panarin — are major pieces of a team that should be a solid playoff contender again this season. The two Russians are playing out the ﬁnal year of their contracts, and Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen’s primary goal this summer was to lock up both superstars with multiyear deals. Neither of the deals got done. Panarin has said he isn’t sure he wants to commit to Columbus for the long haul. Bobrovsky and the Blue Jackets haven’t been able to get together on numbers. “They’re our best players, no question about it,” veteran forward Cam Atkinson said. “We’re going to treat it as business as usual. I’m not going to look at them any differently, because at the end of the day it’s their decision. Buckeyes From page 6 Nelsonville-York’s was 44.6. MHS had a 94.0 serve percentage, with four aces. Madison Fields led the Maroon and Gold service attack with 14 points, followed by Baylee Tracy with 13 points and an ace. Kylee There’s only so many times in your career where you’re in the driver’s seat.” Window is open If Panarin and Bobrovsky play to their capabilities, and some other Blue Jackets who battled injuries or otherwise struggled last year can bounce back, the team should be playoff contenders again. Columbus was eliminated in the opening round by the eventual Stanley Cup champions in the past two years. “I think we’ve crossed the bridge as a team hoping to win,” said coach John Tortorella, who signed a two-year contract extension before camp opened. “I think we crossed that bridge, I think we know we can win,” he said. “The players’ mindset, I think they know they can win. I think we showed that the past couple years. We’ve stumbled in the playoffs, and that’s what we have to take note of here.” Panarin set a franchise record with 27 goals and 55 assists (82 points) in 81 games. The second-highest scorer among forwards was rookie center Pierre-Luc Dubois, who had 20 goals and 28 assists (48 points). The Blue Jackets grabbed the ﬁrst wildcard in the rugged Metropolitan Division despite subpar years from usually reliable forwards Atkinson (46 points), Alexander Mitch had 10 points and one ace, Mallory Hawley ﬁnished with four points and an ace, Breanna Zirkle chipped in with three points, while Hannah Durst added two points and an ace. Hawley led Meigs at the net with 10 kills, followed by Durst with seven kills and a block. Mitch and Maci Hood ﬁnished with three kills apiece, while Fields had Wennberg (37 points), Boone Jenner (32 points) and Nick Foligno (33 points). Injuries deﬁnitely played a part. Ths state of Zach Defenseman Zach Werenski is getting healthy again after playing much of last season with a bum shoulder. He started hitting last week and is hoping to be ready to go by the Oct. 4 opener in Detroit. Werenski suffered a torn labrum in his left shoulder in the 12th game last season. The rest of the way he wore a cumbersome brace that wrapped around his chest and arm to keep his shoulder from separating. His movement was restricted, which affected his defensive skills, but he still managed to ﬁnish with 16 goals. “It’s awful hard for a defenseman to play all those games that he played and put up the numbers he put up and do some of the things he did with that shoulder the way it was,” Tortorella said. “He’s one that we’re certainly going to watch very closely.” Comings and goings The Blue Jackets added some help at center by signing center Riley Nash, the 29-yearold former Boston Bruin who put up career numbers last year. Nash had 15 goals and 26 assists for 41 points in 76 games, besting his previous high by 16 points. one kill and a team-best 21 assists. Meigs’ defense came up with a combined 95 digs, with Hawley, Tracy and Durst leading the way with 16 apiece. Maroon and Gold invade Alexander on Thursday for their next match.
