Anita and Gary lived on Gary’s farm in Meigs County for many years before moving to Circleville. They traveled to Florida often and took trips to Puerto Rico to see both their families. Anita cherished her family, both immediate and extended, and ensured she always spent time with them, especially her children. Anita was rooted in faith from the beginning of her life starting her spiritual journey at Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish and school in New York and last attending Cornerstone Church in Circleville, Ohio. Anita was passionate about her faith and spent her time encouraging and uplifting others throughout her life. Anita did not care if you were a “believer” or not because she had so much faith and, in the time, anyone spent with her they were positively moved and influenced by her kindness, compassion, and wisdom.

She was spicy and funny, enjoying laughter, singing, and dancing and never turned down a good party as was always seen at Christmas family gatherings. Anita had a witty sense of humor and no one was spared of it. In the last nine years of her life, Anita survived breast cancer and battled Alzheimers Dementia and still demonstrated such strength, courage, faith, and positivity. Anita loved Christ, her husband, her children and her family and she will be missed here on earth by all who knew her. Anita will be celebrated at Anderson McDaniel funeral home, 590 E.

According to Nance, the Mason County EMS was first on the scene, and advised there was a working fire. He said the EMS also reported there were multiple burn patients outside, and multiple helicopters would be needed. A landing zone was set up at Wahama High School. When firefighters arrived, Nance said they found heavy fire. Crews made entry into the rear of the house, but were unsuccessful reaching the fire due to deteriorating conditions, he said. Firemen then entered the front door and found heavy fire conditions. According to Nance, the crew had to leave the inside of the house because the floor and roof began to collapse. The firemen continued fighting the blaze from the outside until conditions improved. They returned into the house to put out the fire and to look for the three family pets, which perished, Nance said. Due to the state protocol of a fire with injuries, the state fire marshal’s office was called in, Nance said. Assistant State Fire Marshal Jason Baltic said Friday morning that the cause of the fire is undetermined, but he does not suspect foul play. Assisting the Mason fire department at the scene were the New Haven, Pomeroy, and Middleport fire departments, Mason County EMS, Mason County Sheriff’s Department, Mason County Homeland Security and Emergency Management, Healthnet Aeromedical, Medflight, and the West Virginia State Fire Marshal’s Office. Walmart of Mason donated water and ice to the firefighters, while the fire department auxiliary provided food following the blaze.

Cowboys unsure of QB for West Virginia game STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — With Spencer Sanders’ status unclear for Saturday’s game against West Virginia, it is uncertain who will be at quarterback for No. 15 Oklahoma State in the Big 12 opener for both schools. Will Sanders’ right foot injury, which caused him to leave the Cowboys’ season-opening 16-7 victory over Tulsa last week late in the first quarter, be healed enough for him to play? Will coach Mike Gundy start true freshman Shane Illingworth, who completed 4-of-5 passes for 74 yards to help lead the comeback victory in the fourth quarter? Or will Ethan Bullock, a junior college transfer from the City College of San Francisco, get the start for Oklahoma State (1-0, 0-0 Big 12) after completing 8-of-13 passes for just 41 yards and an interception in about two quarters? “We haven’t got that far yet,” Gundy said Monday. “We’ve got three guys available and we’ll have to make that decision based on practice reps.” Sanders’ right foot was placed in a boot over the weekend. It will be a game-time decision on whether he starts. West Virginia (1-0, 0-0), coming off a bye week that followed a season-opening 56-10 victory over Eastern Kentucky on Sept. 12, is going to be ready for whoever is at quarterback. “I know (Sanders) is questionable for the game, but we are preparing as if he will play,” Mountaineers coach Neal Brown said. “I think that’s how we have to go about it, and we’ll adjust if he doesn’t.” Five things to watch on Saturday: Ground game, Part I The quarterback situation for the Cowboys will affect the running game, as it did last week after Sanders’ injury. The defense can take steps to try to minimize star running back Chuba Hubbard if they don’t have to worry as much about the pass. Hubbard, who led the nation in rushing last year with 2,094 yards (and was third with 21 touchdowns), wound up with 93 yards on 27 carries last week, including the winning touchdown in the fourth quarter, ending his 11-game streak of rushing for 100-plus yards. His contribution will be crucial Saturday, no matter who is at QB. Suspensions over Three offensive starters will be making their season debut for West Virginia after they were among 11 Mountaineers suspended for the opener because of violations of team rules.

The Meigs volleyball team dropped a straight game decision to Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division host Nelsonville-York on Thursday in Athens County, giving the Lady Buckeyes eight wins in a row. Nelsonville-York (12-2, 6-1 TVC Ohio) led wire-to-wire en route to a 25-10 win in the opening game. NYHS scored 11 in a row to start the second game, but Meigs (4-6, 2-5) claimed the next seven markers. MHS battled back to within two points, at 18-16, but eventually fell 25-20 in Game 2. The hosts scored the first four points of the third game and never looked back, capping off the 3-0 sweep with a wire-to-wire 25-14 win. Leading the Maroon and Gold, Kylee Mitch and Andrea Mahr both had six service points, with two aces from Mitch and one from Mahr. Mallory Hawley, Mallory Adams and Hannah Durst finished with three points apiece, with an ace apiece by Adams and Durst, while Baylee Tracy came up with two markers in the setback.

Facing former team A graduate transfer from West Virginia, Oklahoma State’s starting left guard Jeff Sills will face his former team Saturday. Sills played in 27 games, starting 24, for the Mountaineers, including the first two last year before a season-ending injury. He was part of a Cowboy offensive line that allowed six sacks last week, four against Bullock. “Josh has been really good for us, he’s come in and competed,” Gundy said. “He’s a good leader, he’s a great person, so we’re certainly glad that he’s on our team.” Ground game, Part II Yes, it was Eastern Kentucky, but West Virginia enjoyed an outstanding day rushing in its opener. Leddie Brown gained a career-high 123 yards, along with two touchdowns, on just 10 carries in the first half, while also hauling in a 15-yard pass for a score. His backup, Alec Sinkfield, also established career bests with 15 carries and 123 yards, while also scoring two touchdowns. Overall, the Mountaineers gained 329 yards on the ground with five touchdowns. “Offensively, we ran the ball better than at any point last year,” Brown said. Department of defense Oklahoma State’s defense was impressive in its opener. The Cowboys allowed just 278 yards on 59 plays and limited Tulsa to 0-for-12 on third down conversions. “The defense was fabulous,” Gundy said. “Zero-for-12 on third down and one-for-four on fourth down is really the story of the game.” By Alex Hawley Southern (2-8, 2-4 TVC Hocking) tied the opener at 2-2, but Waterford RACINE, Ohio — Not claimed the next five points and didn’t look exactly the night the back en route to the 25-14 hosts expected. victory.

The appellate court is deciding whether a trial judge’s decision blocking the drop box order as “arbitrary and unreasonable” should stand. Judge Susan Brown said the court will make a decision soon in the expedited case. Colombo argued that Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose first said the law governing drop boxes was unclear and that he then asked for an attorney general’s opinion — and then rescinded it. The order then came hastily, Colombo argued, with LaRose noting county election boards needed certainty and time to prepare ahead of the Nov. 3 presidential election. “His public statements have been that it was more of a timing issue, that he just had to make a decision.

The crash happened around 8:30 a.m. Thursday in the westbound lanes of Interstate 480 at the State Road exit. The Ohio State Highway Patrol said a dump truck struck the base of a sign, which rose above three lanes of traffic. The impact caused the sign to fall on the pickup driven by Daniel Ripepi, 62, of Independence, who was traveling in a middle lane. Ripepi, the vice president of a funeral home, was alone in his vehicle at the time.
