According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a Union County School District bus was stopped on S.R. 121 north, four miles south of Lake, Butler, to offload some of its passengers. As the bus sat stationary, with one vehicle behind it. the truck failed to stop and collided with the car and the bus. All seven children killed were in the car. Cynthia Nicole "Nikki" Mann, 15. Elizabeth Mann. 15, Ashley Keen, 14, Johnny Mann, 13, Miranda Finn, 10. Heaven Mann. 3 and Anthony Lamb, 20 months, were in the 1993 Pontiac Bonneville that was struck by the truck drien by Alvin Wilkerson. 31, of Jacksonville. Wilkerson was, taken to Shands Starke where he was released later in the evening. Iris Faye Keen. grandmother of Ashley Keen, said the Mann children had gone to pick up Ashley and her sister Miranda %who had just moved to the Worthington Springs area. They were on their way back to the Manns' house to catch the church van that evening, she said. Of the nine children that were on the bus. three were airlifted to Shands University of Florida. Two more were taken there by ambulance. Of the remaining four. two were taken to Shands Starke and two to Lake Butler Hospital. The bus' driver, Lillie Mae Perry Godbolt. was first taken to Lake Butler Hospital, then Shands Alachua General Hospital and finally UF. The bus was carrying students from all three Union County schools-Lake Butler Elementary, Lake Butler Middle School and Union County High School. According to Lt. Bill Leeper of FHP, the children on the bus ranged in ages. from'5 to 17. The nine children" on the bus included Brenda Chandler, 17,' Katherine Woods, 5, Cecilia'Elixson, 15, Cody Vaughn, 13, Diana Lynn Murphy, 13, Richard Murphy Jr., 16, Roman West, 13, Justin Poorman, 15, and Dalton Sumner, '1. See CRASH, p. 3A Offenders barred from living near kids BY MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Editor A law is now in the books in the city of Starke prohibiting convicted sex offenders and predators from establishing residence near locations where children congregate. Before the new restrictions were given unanimous approval by the city commission. Commissioner Carolyn Spooner asked about language that would make landlords responsible for knowingly renting to sex offenders in a prohibited area. Attorney. John Broling said landlords must do so knowingly for it to be a violation of the law, and the city was not placing responsibility on landlords to check the status of a potential tenant. The sex offender has to register and, in doing so, will know where not to locate, he said. Broling said the purpose of the ordinance was not to completely bar residency to sex offenders, but as a practical matter, outlawing residency For someone who's been waiting 10 years to break ground on a new library, you would think county Library Director Phalbe Henriksen would have shown up with a larger shovel. Actually, hers was a commemorative shovel engraved with the date of the groundbreaking, and it will occupy a future display. Henriksen is pictured above with architect Jack Hedge turning first soil on the much-anticlpated library construction ant r b : a project. Many gather to break ground on new facility BY MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Editor A beautiful day and an invocation by the Rev. Ross Chandler greeted those who turned out to see ground broken on one of the county's most anticipated projects in years-the new public library that will be built on Pratt Street in the city of Starke. Terry Vaughan, chairman of the Library Advisory Board, acknowledged the many people who have come together to see a new library built in Bradford County. '"This day has been a long time coming ... So many people have pulled together on this project, I can honestly say that in my time in public service, I have never seen a project that pulled so many diverse interests together for the common ,good than this project. It has been a wonderful partnership," Vaughan said. :From the Bradford County Commission and the Library Advisory Board it appointed to oversee the project to Santa Fe Community College, the Suwannee River Water Management District and the professionals hired to consult on, design or build the project, there was plenty of recognition toe go around. Vaughan saluted the county. commission, saying the board understood both the cultural and economic boost an expanded library would provide. Not only have studies shown a large economic return on the money invested in libraries, he said, but this project'will also be "!striking huge blow in the fight against illiteracy." Vaughan singled but one county commissioner in particular for identifying the county's need and working to make a new library a reality.' "I want to especially say thank you to Commissioner John Cooper., Without his vision and the sweat equity he was willing to put into this project early on, this day would have never occurred," Vaughan said. County Chairman John Wayne Hersey called the groundbreaking a wonderful day for Bradford County,' and he commended the cooperation with the city of Starke, which traded properties with the county and provided the library a new home. Hersey said the project couldn't have come to this point without friends in high places. Michelle Barth was on hand to represent U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, who wrote of the importance of libraries in a letter to the gathering. "In this information age, ,the resources and guidance offered by our public" libraries are ..more important than ever. I thank you for your continued efforts to ensure that Florida's residents are prepared for the world of tomorrow," Nelson wrote. Sen. Mel Martinez sent Kevin Doyle and Blair Blackard to represent his office. Vaughan also represented Florida Sen. Rod Smith and Rep. Joe Pickens, but special recognition went to Rep. Aaron Bean, who worked alongside Cooper for several years to get state giraht money to help fund the library construction project. See LIBRARY, p. 2A within 2,500 feet of the included areas may, in fact, have that effect as the restrictions could leave very little room to live elsewhere within the city limits .. "As a practical matter, it may have that effect, but there may be some corner or pocket that would be in the city limits but would not be within 2,500 feet (of places children congregate)," Broling said. The ordinance refers to repeat sexual offenders and sexual predators who prey on children as "an extreme threat to the public safety" and prohibits anyone convicted of a sex crime against a victim 16 years old or younger, regardless of whether adjudication has been withheld, from living temporarily or permanently within 2,500 feet of any school, daycare center, park, playground or other location where children congregate. See BARRED, p. 3A Charges dropped against DOC officer, BY MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Editor Florida Department of Corrections employees Richard Frye and James Bowen will not be prosecuted for allegedly participating in a brawl last spring and are back on the state payroll. Charges against the two and former Region 1 Director Allen "A.C." Clark were reduced to misdemeanors in December. All three were accused of attacking a. former correctional officer at a softball banquet in Tallahassee last April, but charges against Frye and Bowen have now been dropped. Assistant State Attorney Phil Smith said such conduct was an embarrassment to all state employees, but hundreds of pages of evidence and testimony were not enough to determine their culpability beyond a reasonable doubt. Charges against Clark have not been dropped. While Frye and Bowen were back on the payroll Tuesday, it was unclear whether or not either would be allowed to return to work. That decision may await completion of an investigation by a the inspector general's office. Frye was a colonel and Bowen a major while working at Apalachee Correctional Institution, but those positions have since been assigned to other employees. Meanwhile, four more drug arrests were made last week in connection with steroid abuse among corrections employees. Kevin Kennington of Lake City, a lieutenant at South Florida Reception Center, and Chuck Wilson of Starke, a sergeant at New River Correctional Institution, were each charged with one count of steroid possession for incidents occurring in August 2002. Stacey Lanier. Green of Lake Butler, a sergeant at Lake Correctional Institution, was charged with possession of steroids for incidents occurring in February 2003. Also charged with steroid possession for incidents occurring in August 2003 was Robert Combass of Jasper, a correctional officer at New River. All incidents are alleged to have occurred in -Bradford County, and each charge is a misdemeanor. All four DOC employees are now on administrative leave.

LIBRARY Continued from p. 1A Bean was present to break ground alongside other officials, and Vaughan noted that it wasn't every day that politicians were able to throw dirt and get applauded for it. Santa Fe Community College President Jackson Sasser, speaking on behalf of all of those at the college who have assisted with the project, including John Sikorski, Diane Gross and Harvey Sharron, said Santa Fe's involvement with the library is just one more .way in which the college is trying to serve the community. The college will assist with new computer purchases and paving the parking lot, which will serve both the library and students at the Stump Center. The Suwannee River Water Management District. represented by Jerry Scarborough, Jerry Bowden,. Patrick Webster and Sylvia Tatum, assisted with additional property acquisition and is designing a drainage and retention system to address "flooding problems on Pratt Street and U.S. 301. Consultants Gerard McCabe and Bernadette Stork helped gauge public opinion to develop a report .that was the foundation. for designing a library that would meet the communiiy's- n-ee'ds. The " architects selected were Jack Hedge of Design Group in Ohio and Bradford County's own Spyros Drivas. Hedge said the building would be energy and, therefore, cost efficient. All State Construction was chosen to build the library. Vice President Casey Weldon, joined by Project Manager Joe Nealon, expressed their excitement at being chosen to build a library everyone could be proud of. Vaughan said it was very appropriate that the Woman's Club of' Starke had become involved with the library project as it was the Woman's Club that established the first library in a storage room as a WPA project. Books were rented for.10 cents a week, and 'that" money went toward the purchase of new books. The library moved to larger and larger rooms at, the Woman's Club as its popularity grew. In 1957, the county provided space on the second floor of the old jail, and Woman's Club members were appointed to serve on the first library board. In 1963, still more space was needed, so the library moved back to Walnut Street in the building now occupied by Badcock Furniture. A fund- raising project began in 1969 to build a new library building, and the result was the .library's present home on Jackson Street, which opened its doors' in 1975. Library advisory board- members include Vaughan, -..Chuck Kramer, .Brenda Donaldson, Cheryl Canova, Vivian Chappell, Tommy Chastain, Shelley Torode and Mark Crawford. Don Tilley has also served with the board. The board was created by the county commission in 2003, and members'have advised the commission on the selection of the site as well as consulting, design and construction services. They have done so with the guidance of Library Director Phalbe Henriksen, whose interest in building a new library over the past 10 years has made her a veritable expert in the process. Capital City Bank is financing the project. Site clearing work will now begin with actual construction slated to start in March.

EXHIBIT "A Feb. 2, 2006 TELEGRAPri Page 7A EquitV report shows Bradford schools need improvement i " d i di trict the female team three-hour class titled "Mariy BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND. Telegraph Staff Writer During a Jan. 9 workshop, the Bradford County Sdhool Board reviewed an educational. -equity audit and determined some work was still needed to ,_e- fully compliant with the auditors' recommendations., Director of Curriculum Becky Reddish, who took over the position in August when Eugenia Whitehead retired, presented the report. Auditors from the Office of Equity and Access in Tallahassee conducted their on-site review on April 19-22,: 2005. Reddish said this .was their -first site visit in more than 20 years. The OEA auditors looked at handbooks, employment applications, procedures, policies and numerous other documents at schools within the district.- They also interviewed principals and other school employees. They pinpointed specific areas that certain schools within the district need to work on to provide all students with an equal education. Reddish received the report during the first part of December, but because of school holidays', she said she had less time to work on fixing the issues. The deadline to turn in detailed plans and timelines of how the schools plan to fix / the problems was moved from Jan. 30 to mid-February. Some concern was raised by the OEA auditors over the fact that the Bradford school' district had not turned in a self- evaluation or a Facilities Transition Plan that is required as part of the Americans with Disabilities Act. According to the report, "The deadline for completing the self-evaluation was Jan.'26, 1993, and most school districts have complied with this At the workshop, maintenance supervisor J.E. Mott said most of the issues with being in compliance with the ADA came from needing to install more Braille signage and converting all bathrooms to be handicap accessible. The report mentioned that the district office, constructed in 1949, had a "lack of raised tables and inaccessible seating and inaccessible restrooms." Other schools had problems with Braille signs, narrow restrooms and inaccessible ramps, The OEA recommended that the district conduct the self- evaluation and develop a" Facilities Transition Plan detailing timelines, costs and renovations that have to be made and submit this by mid- February. From the data provided by the school district, the auditors reported that "racial/ethnic minorities are under repreisenteu n many i. usrict and administrative positions." Of all of the school personnel, 84 percent are white, 15 percent are black and 1 percent are Hispanic. The auditors noted that in interviews with school personnel, it was hard' to recruit minorities because of lack of housing, college attendance, out of town, location and competitive salary offers elsewhere. Recommendations in the' Sport were for the district to implement creative recruitment strategies and to: post job notices in Black Collegiate Magazine, the .National Education Association and at. historically black colleges and universities. Another issue the auditors had stemmed from athletics. Even though women account for the majority of Bradford school personnel. they do not coach male sports. To compare, men coach many of The auditors felt there were not enough female athletes. In 2003-2,004, 11 percent of the physical education classes were single-sex classes, such as, a class solely. for the football team. At Lawtey 'Community School, for example, there is a baseball team where, male and female students 'are invited to. play, said Iawtey Principal Lisa Prevatt. Though, no females currently play on the team. The auditors suggested the district highlight female athletics and encourage equal participation between males and females: Equal equipment and facilities should be available to both groups. Reddish said, she had already, been working with the schools to resolve the issues mentioned in the audit. The district offers diversity training classes, with the last Faces, Many People," being held Jan. 3. The report complimented the schools, too. The gifted program, known as QUEST (Quality Education for Special Talent), services students in all grades who have scored certain levels in IQ and academic testing. According to- the report, the elementary schools' gifted teacher- "provides curricula beyond: what is offered in the regular classroom on a weekly basis" and provides once-a-month consultations. In order to increase FCAT scores, Bradford schools monitor student progress, offer- tutoring and provide dther programs to encourage better: test scores. Regarding disabled student-i, the report said the school made the proper and necessary adjustments when a disabled student needed them. Lawtey Baptist straight A's Starke rewrites sign ordinance BY MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Editor The city of Starke is getting ready to remove content from its sign ordinance that opened it up to legal challenge last year. The. move comes after the '.city was sued over the constitutionality of its sign code. . Attorney John Broling and City Manager Ken Sauer worked together to revise the sign ordinance to comply with the I 1I' Circuit Court of Appeals ruling in Solantic LLC versus .the city of Neptune Beach. It is based on a sample ordinance drafted by the Florida League of Cities, and their attorneys feel it would "pass constitutional muster," Broling said. Solantic sued Neptune Beach for essentially the same reasons the city of Starke was sued by Sunshine, Outdoor of Florida Inc.-content based regulation of speech because the. ordinance forbids some sings and exempts.others based on content. In addition, there, were no time limits established for decisions on sign permits, which the court said constituted unlawful prior restraint. Starke was sued over the constitutionality of its sign code by Sunshine after no action was taken to approve or deny a permit application to replace a billboard between Capital : City Bank and Wainwright Produce. Sunshine had been told a permit would be necessary to replace the billboard, which received storm damage in 2004. Broling has asked the city commission to review the ordinance and make suggestions on sign size and placement, so the draft can be completed and the ordinance advertised for public hearings. The present draft contains the current regulations' onir setbacks, size, position and, zoning, which are content neutral and had nothing to do with free speech, Broling said. "If it's the feeling of the board that certain types of signs are too large or that certain areas of the city should have a different style of sign, different size of sign or different height of sign, that would be helpful to know," Broling said, adding that such changes could be made before advertisement of the ordinance. Broling also noted' that the Neptune Beach case is still being litigated, as Neptune has asked for a review of the 11 Circuit ruling by the entire panel. t If the 11th Circuit decides as a collective group to reverse itself, they can still do that, and that would affect Neptune Beach, but it wouldn't,, affect us because we're about to change our ordinance anyway," Broling said. The new ordinance specifically states it is not intended to censor speech or regulate' viewpoints, but to regulate the adverse secondary effects of signs related to aesthetics and safety. Among the long list of prohibited signs are billboards. A 45-day time frame for approving sign permits would be established under the new.ordinance.

B .- Aggie and her-husband of 69-plus years, Al Watson Sr., and their family, son Dr. Al Watson Jr. and daughter Agnes Green, donated $2.8 million to construct an educational center in Keystone and established a $600,000 endowed scholarship' that was matched by the state. The Santa Fe Community College Watson Center is located on S.R. 21 between Keystone and Melrose on a 42- acre wooded site, . While Aggie has not seen the center due to advanced stages of Alzheimer's, Al said before she deteriorated, Aggie iwas pleased--,With their. donation. , "She went to three different schools in three years, and one summer completed 'a degree in education from the University of Miami," said Al. It was during that summer, Al and Aggie met through' his' fraternity brothers, while she was attending the University of Florida. "Sometimes a person has. either intelligence or wisdom. She had both," said Al. At the end of the summer when Aggie left for Miami, Al had an accident that put him in the hospital "She wrote me every day I was there," said Al. "I realized she was a lady who cared, so I invited her up to homecoming." He said he had read books about how a man should. bend down on one knee to propose marriage, "I couldn't handle that," he said. "So I kind of asked, 'Will you keep house for me?' Aggie said, 'No, but I'll marry you.'" That's when their lifelong teamwork began. Aggie and Al have always been equal partners. "We worked together as a team in business, in -our spiritual lives and through our charities," said Al. In, the early years of their marriage, Aggie substituted at the elementary school in Melrose. "She made $5 a day," said, Al. "She'd bring it back, I'd buy more groceries and we'd put some in savings." In 1980, the Our Country ' Day committee asked Al to be the grand marshal of the Fourth of July parade. He said he told them that he'd be a- grand marshal only if Aggie was included.

"., Page 8B TELEGRAPH, TIMES & MONITOR--B-SECTION Feb. 2, 2006 Open house planned for hunting proposal An open house to gather public input on a draft plan for reopening the south post of Camp Blanding for hunting is scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 7. from 6 30-8 30 p.m., at the Clay County Fairgrounds. 2497 S R. 16 West. in Green Co\e Springs. The Camp Blanding Joint Training Center and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission have created a proposal that could reestablish access to the south portion of the post for hunting. Since Sept. II. 2001, the lands in the Camp Blanding Wildlife Management Area lying south of S R 16 have been closed by jihe Department of Military Affairs These lands. needed for training exercises and troop mobilization, are under tight security that prohibits recreational access under the current hunting format. While the closure resulted in the loss of all recreational access to the south post. "hunting has been allowed in traditional hunting areas on north post," said Col. Ben Nelson, Camp Blanding Joint Training Center commander. He said Florida Department of Military Affairs and FWC staffs have maintained communications in an effort to reopen the closed area. "It is the intent of the Florida National Guard to consider the interests of our citizens while also satisfying our state and federal mission requirements.," Nelson said. "Our agency has been proactive in formulating this proposal which reflects the Florida National Guard's posture in being supportive of the interests of our citizens." According to Roland Garcia. director of FWC's North Central Region. based in Lake CiiN. "Camp Blanding is still under heightened force protection and %will remain so for the foreseeable future. This makes it unacceptable for the public and their equipment (including dogs.) to encroach on sensitive areas of the post. including the artillery impact area and the closed portion of the post that lies south of S.R. 16 and west of D Avenue. For this reason, it is necessary to relocate the deer-dog hunting area from its previous location if we are to proceed with reopening the south post." The proposal to reopen the south post for the 2006-07 hunting season would require changes to 'rules and hunting formats, including locations of current still and dog hunt areas and locations where special quota hunts would take place. The proposal provides for the same types and amount of hunting days that currently exist for still hunting. ,while adding the deer-dog hunting format back into the hunting scheme. On Dec. 23, 2005,. FWC staff mailed a "request for comments" to approximately 1.050 individuals %who had applied for quota permits for the Camp Blanding WMA. The purpose of the letter was to request public comments on a proposal to switch the dog and still hunt areas. As of Jan. 18. Commission staff had received 119 letters and e-mails: 90 175 percent) supported the proposal, 9 (8 percent supported the proposal but suggested changes, and 20 (17 percent) did nIot support : the proposal. Staff also received two petitions, one with 27 signatures and another with 58 signatures, supporting : the proposal. The proposal and miap of the '"area are available at: my fwc.com/whatsnew/05/nort hcentral/blanding.html. "This plan retains all of the current still-hunting opportunities, reinstates deer- , dog hunting. is acceptable to FWC from a biological perspective, is acceptable to Camp Blanding from a security perspective and reopens the south post," Garcia said. "We are fast-tracking the process for' these changes so we can pro\ ide the ne\w format for net hunting season. If this proposal is not acceptable to a, - significant portion of our constituents. FWC will need additional time to rework the proposal." That would 'mean necessary changes would not take place in time for reopening the south post for the 2006-07 hunting season. "We hope the hunters who want to use the area will support this proposal. We strongly believe, this plan is in the best interest of all concerned parties, especially the hunting community. All comments and suggestions received will be used by staff to develop a final recommendation," Garcia said. FWC staff will present an overview' of this. proposal&,to - commiisioners eat the Febl,.'l,, commission .,meeting in Gainesville. "We plan to .present staff's final recommendation at the April 5-6 commission meeting. in Tallahassee. If changes are adopted, they would become effective July 1, 2006," Garcia said. 41 I' , I.. .. r J11,2 %:*,. f;L, Bea H ildreth and Dorothy Dowdy, who are, both home and community educators, show off one of the, lap robes made and distribtitedto residents at Bradford Terrace and to'dialysis patients..

BY CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer The tragedy of losing seven grandchildren in the Jan. 25 traffic crash in Lake Butler was apparently too much for William Edwin Scott to take. He died of a heart attack at the age of 70 later that night. Scott, whom everybody knew as Ed, had a history of heart problems, dating back approximately 10 years, his brother Bruce Scott said. Ed Scott had open heart surgery approximately five years ago. "I guess' the stress' of (the accident) just got to him," Bruce Scott said. Bruce Scott remembered his brother as a man who lived a simple life and placed a high importance on his family. "His big thing in his life, really,- was his family," Scott said, "He made sure everyone was taken care of." Family included those who were not blood relations as well. Three of the children killed in the accident were, adopted and a fourth was in the process of being adopted. "He loved them just like they were his own," Bruce Scott said. In fact, Ed Scott raised several foster children, some of whom he adopted. Ed Scott, who was born in Caryville, lived in Hawthorne since 1958. He retired from the Alachua County Road Department as a heavy equipment operator and served as a deacon at Ochwilla Baptist Church. He is survived by one sister, Johnny was a "little man,,' See VIGIL, p. 5C William Edwin Scott is pictured with his wife, Katie, in a photo taken approximately 10 years ago. four brothers, five children, 10 grandchildren and three great- 'grandchildren, along with his wife, Katie. Bruce Scott said he could not imagine anyone else being a better wife for his brother thad Katie. He said it was rare to see the two apart. "Anywhere they went, you'd see them together," Scott said. It has certainly been a trying time for the family to lose that many members in such a short span, but Scott said it has been touching to experience the support and outpouring of emotion from those in the community. "It uplifts your spirit," Scott said. P .e3C I 'I:' I Children's grandfather dies Following accident had a "'very bubbly personality" and had "dancing eyes."

The Lake Butler Middle School sign above was changed to a message for the children on the school bus who are still in the hospital. Bus victims to have difficult times ahead BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Telegraph Staff Writer No one can imagine how it was to be on the Union County school bus on Jan. 25, but it is certain the nine children and driver, all have a difficult time cA.i O:f them According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, the nine children on the bus were Cody Vaughn, 13, Dalton Sumner, 11, Brenda [Gaile] Charidler, 17, Diana Lynn Murphy, 13, Justin Poorman, .15, Katherine Woods, 5, Cecelia Elixson, 15, Richard A lurphli Jr., 15, and Roman West, 13.

Crete .Carrier makes statement on UC accident BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Telegraph Staff Writer Crete Carrier Corporation issued two statements on its Web site following the Jan. 25 accident The first came on the day of the accident from Jack Peetz, the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Crete, who's statement read: "Our thoughts and prayer are with those involved in this accident and their families. We are in the process of gathering information, and at this point,' we are unable to accurately discuss the incident." "We are very sorry' and deeply saddened that this tragedy has happened. We will work diligently with the appropriate authorities on the investigation." The second statement came from Crete's president and CEO, Tonn M. Ostergard, who said: "We wish to convey our deepest sympathy to the families and community of Lake Butler as they mourn the loss of their loved ones," "Since the accident, the Mann and Scott families and the families of those injured have been in the constant thoughts and prayers of my family and all Crete Carrier associates, who care very deeply about others and particularly, what you are going through." "In our efforts to reach out to the Mann and Scott families, we have been able to speak with their representatives, who indicated the families' desire at this time to grieve in private.

Both Peetz and Ostergard were called dozens of times for further information over a three-day period, but no one could be reached for comment by press time. BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Telegraph Staff Writer A Nebraska man knows first hand what it's like to be looking in your rear-view mirror and seeing a Crete Carrier tractor-trailer barrelling toward his car. Don Lemke said he saw the. story about the accident on S.R. 121 on his local evening news and knew then why he was still living. "They nearly killed me five years ago," he said during a phone interview from Nebraska on Friday, Jan. 27. Lemke said his heavy duty pickup truck was rear-ended by a Crete tractor-trailer when he was slowing to make a turn off of a highway on Oct. 10, 2001. He said he was using his turn signal. The driver of the tractor- trailer hit him at full highway speed, Lemke said, and there was no braking until after the point of impact. He said the driver was cited by law enforcement authorities with reckless driving,, but yet the company still refused to pay for Lemke's injuries. "I've been fighting this company," he said of his ongoing legal battle with Crete. Lemke said the company had tried to force him into a settlement, but he would not agree to this. The night before his accident, a Crete tractor-trailer driver had gotten into an accident in his area, he said, "There's something really bad when they're consistently in the top ... for crashes," he said. Lemke said that Crete has a bad reputation in his state fof hiring inexperienced drivers and causing accidents. "They're not paying attention," he said. "They don't care. They're mean; they're nasty and politically connected [in Nebraska]." He survived his accident, and his injuries were not life- threateniuig. "God let me live for a reason," he said, but it was only after watching the Mann family accident on the news that he knew why. "These people (the Mann and Scott families) need all the help they can get," which is the reason he said he wants to tell his story. (Note: This is Don Lemke's account of what happened in his accident. As of press time, Crete Carrier Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Jack Peetz did not return numerous phone calls requesting comment on this accident.)

Bradford County Middle School guidance counselor Cynthia Ross said, "It was a little difficult for me." She and the other counselors, though, had to put their feelings aside to help students and other community members deal with their pain. "That staff over there (in Union County) deserve all the credit and the family, too," Ross said because the Union counselors knew the students personally. She did not know the exact number of counselors sent from Bradford, but estimated that it was approximately sii counselors. Counselors from Union and Bradford helped at all three schools. Each school had a student die or get injured on the school bus during the accident. One counselor remarked, "The kids helped each other. We were just there to interject positive thoughts."

BY JAMES REDMOND Times Staff Writer On Sunday night more than 1,000 people came to the Union County High School auditorium to pay their respects to four children most of them did not even know. Th6 visitation, held for Cynthia Nicole "Nikki" Mann, Elizabeth Mann, Johnny Mann and Heaven Mann, was a time for people to say their, goodbyes and tell family members how sorry they were for the family's loss. The line of, those waiting to pay their respects stretched around the auditorium and out the front doors ofthe high school. At the front of the auditorium, four white caskets sat. One of the four was a smaller size for Heaven. Behind each was a collage of pictures that showed happy times from each child's life. Johnny's collage was wrapped in the colors of the University of Miami, his favorite team,. Elizabeth's was wrapped in University of Florida colors because of her affection for the Gators. Both Johnny's and Elizabeth's flowers, that adorned the top of their caskets, were of their favorite teams' colors as well. As mourners filed past, they would stop to look at pictures and point out specific ones. Many stopped to hug either Barbara or Terry Mann or both. It was clear that- most children in attendance knew at least one of the deceased. A slide show presentation also showed some the children's happier times. Pictures of all four children showed smiling faces and playful moments. Bible versus in the presentation told about children in Heaven. Brad, Paisley's. "When I Get Where I'm Going" featuring Dolly Parton and Holly Dunn's "Daddy's Hands" were the background music for the presentation. At the entrance of the high school, four guest books lay on a table. Each book had a picture of one of the four children behind it. A bulletin handed out had a picture on the cover of Jesus surrounded by children. A poem inside told of ' God's promise for life. Outside the building, the weather seemed to be tuned into the feelings of the family. It was a gray and dismal night. A light rain shower fell. No stars could be seen and the sky was absent of natural light. Ohn stage with the other pictures, a picture of the children's grandfather sat alone. The photo was in honor of William Edward Scott, 70, of Hawthorne. Scott was at the family's home when they learned of the accident. Several hours later he suffered a heart attack and died. He was buried Jan. 31 in Hawthorne at the Ochwilla cemetery. The funerals of Ashley Keen and Miranda Finn, cousins of the Mann children, were held Feb.1 at Ochwilla Baptist Church. A memorial"service is being held today for 20-month old Anthony Lamb. Services will take place today at 11 a.m. at Archer Funeral Home in Lake Butler. The service will be held one week to the day that his adoption to the Mann family would have been, finalized. According to family member Tina Mann, Barbara and Terry Mann were scheduled to finalize lamb's adoption Jan. 26. The First United Methodist Church of Lake Butler requested prayers for its extended family on its sign in front of the church on Main Street. Funeral for 4 in accident held Jan. 30 , BY JAMES REDMOND i Times SiaJ) It rier A funeral held for four of the seven children killed in Wednesday's accident gave mourners a small glimpse into their lives. As those coming to pay their respects entered First Christian Church, they encountered four separate collages of pictures. Each contained photographs from happy moments in each child's life. Those four children were Cynthia Nicole "Nikki" Mann, Elizabeth' Mann, Johnny Mann and Heaven Mann. At the front of the church, the white caskets with gold' trim formed an arc around the church's altar. Multiple flower arrangements surrounded all four caskets. ' The Union County Sheriff's Office estimates that more than 400 people crowded into the church. "Arld that does not include those:who filled the fellowship hall," said Union County Sheriff Jerry Whitehead. The church set up a closed- circuit television feed to the hall to allow those not able to get into the church to at least view the ceremony. Even with two buildings, it was still standing room only when the service began. The Rev. Scott Fisher of the Church of Christ and Dr. Harold Hudson of Fellowship Baptist Church of Raiford ' officiated over the ceremony.. "We who are here today are going to go through days and years of difficulties," Fisher told those gathered. "But these children now reside in Heaven." The children's choir from Fellowship Baptist, made up of more than 40 chilJdren, opened the ceremony with a pair of , hymns. Each one held a single flov.er. . ',A slide show presentation also brought to life moments in the Mann children's lives. The pictures showed various times from their short lives. In eah, every child had a smile on their face. It was clear the presentation affected family members. By the end of the presentation, several were weeping, trying to hold themselves up. After the presentation, Fisher attempted to ease the pain of those in attendance. "Our message is not to Nikki or Elizabeth or Johnny or Heaven," Fisher said. "This message'is for you. Jesus has received these children. They are in Heaven." "The message to you is, look to him for strength. Our community is strong. We will heal." As four hearses were loaded to take the children to their final resting place, those around the church stood still, paying their respects one last time. Several young adults were overcome with grief watching the sight. Out loud they asked, "Why, these children, why?" The procession to Mt. Zion Cemetery -was, by some estimates, more than a mile long. Under a gray sky, that seemed to fit the day, Fisher spoke as family and friends said their last goodbyes to the children. "These children have moved out of a small house filled with love into a bigger house filled with even more love," Fisher said. The ceremony concluded with family members placing butterflies on the flower arrangements that laid on the- top of each of the caskets. VIGIL Continued from p. 3C Griffis said. "He loved to help my father pass out the church bulletins," he said. "He spent time getting to know God and dedicating his life to following Him." He even spoke about Heaven, who was only 3 years old.i "She often sat with us in the youth group during our services ... Her smiling face was a joy to everyone, and I loved holding her on my lap and playing with her." "Anthony wasn't quite 2 years old," Griffis said, "but he was always such a good baby. He played well with other children and never caused a problem." Choking through tears during his entire speech, Griffis said he looked forward to when he would spend time with all of the children forever in Heaven. Wanda Lewis and Jeff Gainey also shared their memories of the Mann family. Lewis recalled how Johnny loved the University of Miami football team. She called Nikki "my Nick-Nick" and remembered how they played bingo together. She said she went out to scene of the accident and picked up a sippy cup she recognized as one of the children's. Gainey said Nikki was always the, first to try things. In Sunday school, she would be the first to volunteer to role play. At one youth gathering, they bobbed for apples. He said when all the children were reluctant to get wet, Nikki was the first one to go. She dunked her whole head in and came back with an apple, and that was her apple, he said. About Johnny, Gainey said, "He told me one time 'I'm going to be a great NFL quarterback.' When I get up there, I going to play with Johnny. I'm going to let him be quarterback." Many of the church members said they saw Liz, Johnny and Nikki devote their lives to Christ. The Rev. Harold Hudson said, "They went to be with Jesus." "I know there had to be at least seven angels on Highway 121 because seven of God's people were about to go home," he said. Hudson asked those at the vigil if it would make them feel better to say the Manns had gone on a long trip, and they would not be back for a while. "Well, they've gone on a long trip ... you can see them again," he said. "The wisest thing you can do tonight is to open up your hearts, and let Jesus come in."

Ten years later, however, Parks was honored with a luncheon at her church, First Baptist in Starke, two days prior to her 100th birthday. Parks, who turned 100 on Jan. 31, was amazed at- the attention she received, which included receiving proclamations on behalf of the commissions of Bradford County and the city of Starke, as well as from Dr. Rodney Coe, the pastor at First Baptist, where she has been a member since June 28, 1992. "My gracious," Parks said following the conclusion of the luncheon. "I've been entertained before, but this was the largest (celebration), I think." Quite a catch... Oliver Crum Sr. of Starke had quite a productive day fishing recently, catching these bass off of shiners at Sanford Lake. The largest bass tipped the scales at 9.6 pounds. Parks admitted it's hard to believe she's 100. She said she, doesn't feel that old. In fact, she said she remains active, whether it's cooking, working. in the Nard or doing Whatever else comes to mind. She was driving up until last year, and she gave that up voluntarily. "Age and traffic," Parks replied, when asked why she gave up getting behind the wheel of an automobile. Many friends of Parks' attended the luncheon, one of whom was Dolly Spires, who celebrated her 99t birthday Jan. 30. Spires, who was recognized prior to lunch being served, has not .been able to. attend church at First Baptist for more than a year because of health issues, but she, like Parks, still manages to keep herself busy. She enjoys crocheting, knitting and putting together jigsaw puzzles. S"When I get kind of tired of the sewing, I sit at the card table and do a puzzle," Spires said. ; Spires said she comes' from a family of seven children-flve of which lied into their 9s. 1 "think that's pretti.good." she said. "' Following lunch,,, Terry Blakeslee, the minister *olt education administration 'at First Baptist, spoke to the gathering about all of tihe events that have taken place during Parks' litfeinpe. Kelloggs began selling corn flakes the )ear she was bqrn and "back when -ou were 9ist a teenager, women eyqre granted the right to vote," Blakeslee said. In response to Blakeslee saying that talking movs were invented before she Uas 20, Parks said she went ito 'Jacksonville to see'her first movie. She said she believed it was a movie that starred Al Jolson. S"Was it 'The Jazz Singer?'" Blakeslee asked. "Yes,' Parks replied. "That was the very first talking movie," Blakeslee said. Blakeslee shared that Ford introduced the Model T in 190(8. Park-' iaid4ier father bought one of the first cars in the area in 1914. He paid approximately $500 for it. That prompted Starke Mayor Steve Futch, when he took the podium, to quip, "Miss Parks, we decided at our table that most of uis have paid $500 for a car, too, but that's every month." Futch presented Parks with a framed proclamation in which Jan. 29, 2006, was termed "Louie Belle Parks Day" in Starke. Bradford County Commissioner John Cooper also presented Parks with a proclamation on behalf of the county. See BIRTHDAY, p. 11C F m lit * Indivi S Ort * Indivi * Early.
