Unsung heroes —

The public is very supportive

Many a Milfordite recognizes Barb Richardson's smiling face from behind the counter of J & W’s Drive-In but what others may not know is this busy lady, who loves to cook, is also a member of Milford Emergency Medical Service. Barb started making runs with the EMS in January of 1980 She was going to school in Goshen at the time, working on getting her EMT certification Why did she join'’ “I got very upset after attending an EMS Open House, there was only one person there.” says Mrs. Richardson “There just weren't enough people involved and I thought why should I be upset if I’m not doing it myself.” she. added. So she got involved along with her. husband. Wayne, and the two began schooling together “It's for the people in town,” says Barb “So many people think they can't do it.” she explained "People need more confidence in themselves.” says the EMT who says they should tell themselves. “Icandojthis." When thinking of this week's unsung hero the old cliche comes to mind that goes something like this: If you want something done, give it to a busy person Mrs. Richardson doesn’t have any time to spare Owning and managing a restaurant really leaves this active lady with very little time to do the things she would like “I like to cook for church suppers,” says Barb explaining that she just doesn't have the time these days. Two injured in motorcycle accident Brad LeCount. r 5 Syracuse and John Richardson. Milford, suffered injuries in a motorcycle accident Monday morning. May 24 LeCount sustained a slight concussion and Richardson suffered a cut on his left knee, sprained left ankle and bruises on his right leg. According to Richardson's mother.

“The public is very supportive." she says. One time Mrs Richardson had to leave the restaurant on an emergency run and one of the customers just got up and finished pouring the coffee for her. When asked what she thought of Milford’s EMS. Barb says. "We need more help Anyone really interested should come to our meeting.'’ The EMS meets the first Monday of every month at 7 p m in the back of Milford Community Building They don’t need any previous diplomas, degrees or certificates to qualify for the training as an EMT is not a paramedic and only emergency first aid is applied until such time as the victim can be treated in the hospital Those interested can go on the emergency runs to familarize themselves with the procedures if they are attending classes held in Goshen offered in the spring and fall of the year. Barb and husband. Wayne, have three children. Kathy Shaw of Milford; John. 16-years-old; and Terry. 12 years-old What do the children think of their parents bang EMT’s’ “Well, Kathy is a driver now. says Barb. Kathy, who is a mother herself of grandchild. Jonathan, joined Milford's EMS

about six months ago This week's unsung hero comments. “I don’t think we are iheros at all The community should be aware that what we are doing is for the people We’re just doing something we want to do." Because many times people have to pay for the ambulance service they think the EMT's are paid, but this is not true according to the EMT who says being an EMT is all volunteer FELTS CERAMIC TILE 630 Pi Osburg Siree* Syrocuse Corel Peonut 834 7582 457 2685

Wed., May 26,1982 — THE MAIL-JOURNAL

Douglas Roth apologizes to Wawasee student council A full-confession and apology was made Tuesday morning before the Student Council of Wawasee High School by Douglas A. Roth. Goshen High School senior who was involved in the inordinate act of vandalism that occurred at the local school in the early morning hours of Sunday. May 9. Roth was contrite in his brief remarks before 60-odd students and a number of high school administrators and teachers. He appeared at his own request and made the trip to the high school with his parents and attorney Steven R. Hearn. A complete copy of his handwritten remarks was given to The Mail-Journal for publication upon the advice of his parents and attorney Hearn. His words are repeated here in their entirety: I’m here today to publicly apologize to the students of Wawasee High School, administration, teaching and custodial staff, and the community of Syracuse for my actions on May 8 which involved the vandalism of your high school. I want you to know that what happened is not characteristic of the Goshen Student Body After I became aware of how your student body and community pulled together to prepare the school for classes on Monday. 1 fully realized the terrible thing 1 did. A little over 2 weeks ago I had everything going for me. 1. Starting catcher 2. Taking my girlfriend to the prom 3. Graduation Since then I was kicked off the baseball team. My girlfriend broke up with me and 1 was not allowed to go to the prom. But I was lucky enough to graduate. And I’m also facing very serious criminal charges. Because I succumb to the temptation to use alcohol I find myself disgraced. - In the eyes of my own student body, the administration, community, baseball team, and coaches, and last but not least I've disgraced myself of you. < I have been taught by my parents right from wrong and my conduct has caused them much heartache Even though I made the decision to consume alcohol. 1 feel if I had not been under the influence 1 would not have done such a terrible thing. I know that 1 have caused all of you a lot of problems which is why I am here to apologize, and as you know I've caused myself a lot of problems which I have yet to answer for ‘ I come here today hoping that at least one person might benefit from my experience in the use of alcohol and that they can see what can happen from the temptation of just one drink. With all the trouble 1 have caused all of you I certainly want to thank you for giving me this opportunity to appear here today. 1 have learned that 1 have to face the consequence of what I have done and 1 hope that other persons might be able to benefit also from my experience
