Addison Hestermann’s life
touched (and continues to
touch) an entire community.
The annual “Live Like Addie”
Walk/Run has drawn crowds
of over 500 people to Syracuse
for the last three years.
Addison lost a
short battle with
Acute Myeloid
Leukemia just two
days shy of her
tenth birthday on
March 26, 2012.
For those who
knew her, they
keep her spirit alive
in their memories
daily.
For those people and many
who never knew the little girl,
they strive to “live like Addie.”
She loved animals and
wanted to be a vet one day.
Addie wanted to rescue animals, and she even set up a
lemonade stand to raise money for the local animal shelter.
Her generous, giving spirit
was remembered and celebrated April 4 in Williams
Park when hundreds filled
the trail on the “Live Like Addie” not-quite-one-mile-walk.
Led by her classmates and

Sweat
brothers, over half the trail
was full by the time everyone
made it into the park.
Many of the participants
brought their four-legged
friends; it was only fitting
considering how much Addie loved animals. Cupcakes
and fruit were served at the
end.
After the walk, the 5K began. Usually, runners in a 5K
are focused on their times
and possibly winning.
However, this annual run is
special.
It’s about remembering a
little girl and making sure to
live life to the fullest.
Proceeds from the 2015
“Live Like Addie” Run/Walk
will go towards improvements
at the Syracuse Sports Complex.

Patient portal offers more options
Laramie Werner
[email protected]
Having immediate access to
information is something that
many people want and expect.
Community Memorial Hospital has a new option for patients that will give them 24-7
access to many aspects of their
medical records.
The Patient Portal is a secure
website that will allow patients to see up-to-date information on medication, aller-
gies, immunizations, recent
visits, lab results, and clinical
documents. Some patients
monitor their frequent lab results, and the patient portal
makes it easy to view those results whenever convenient.
LauraLea Fossenbarger, Director of Quality and Community Outreach at Community Memorial Hospital, said
that they see definite advantages to patients.
“Just having access to their
health information whenever
- on their schedule, at their
convenience… It’s accessible
anywhere- website or on device,” she said.
In order to access the patient
portal, patients (ages 20 and
over) are encouraged to bring in
their devices, by appointment, to
set up their personal patient
portal. Contact Customer Support at 402-269-7676 or email
[email protected]
with questions or to make an appointment for Patient Portal
setup.

After the day was done, Jamie
wrote, “As I do every year, I
have a moment when I'm absolutely overcome with emotion by the number of people
who come out to support our
family and our causes. The
words "thank you" don't even
come close to covering it, but
I'll say them
anyway.
“Thank
you to each
one of you for
being there
for us in so
many ways.
Thank you to
our volunteers who
make the event a successful
one.
“Thank you to our family
members and friends who
step in and step up wherever
they are needed.
“Thank you to Addie's classmates for remembering her
and baking all those yummy
cupcakes.
“Thank you to Tammie and
Cindy for taking care of all the
little details.

Syracuse Rocket Power Drive Car
Rocket racers set for Saturday
Laramie Werner
[email protected]
Race fans and Rockets fans take
note! The Syracuse Rockets Power Drive team will be racing this Saturday, April 11, at UNL East Campus Big Red Invitational. Races
start at 11:30 a.m., with Syracuse
competing in the Standard Class.
The team of seven high school
students designed and built the
car in their Principles of Technology class with Syracuse High School
instructor Doug Iske. Most of the
team consists of new members in
their first year of the program Kody Cardinal, Matt Clark, Elias
Husen, Jordan Long, and Will
Neels. Kim Snyder and Ty Snyder
have participated in the past, and
they returned to the program. Ty is
the team s driver.
The Power Drive program was established by OPPD in 1998 to give
high school students a hands-on
way to apply their studies. Teams
have been instructed to build a
one-person electric vehicle.
Over the course of the school
year, the Syracuse Racing team designed the car and built it from
scratch. They have already competed in the Cuming County Open
Novice Class, and they won first
place! The Syracuse team moved
up to the Standard Class for the remaining races.
The cars travel around the track
at speeds around 35 mph. The race
lasts an hour, and the car with the
most laps wins the race. The driver must take one mandatory pit
stop, but others are sometimes
needed for adjustments throughout
the race. Other team members are
present and operate as the pit crew
to work on the car as needed.
The Syracuse Racing Power Drive
team will compete in a total of 4
more competitions - The Big Red
Invitational April 11, Drive-Safe
Challenge (Grand Island) April 18,
Hastings Power Drive April 25,
and the Power Drive Championships in La Vista May 2.
Go out Saturday and support the
Rockets team while you enjoy some
great racing and admire all the
amazing designs!
MAYOR’S MINUTE

In the last month, Mayor Tomas KC Ortiz has
been working on hiring
employees, applying for
a large grant, and working

have them finalized, with
approval from City Council, this week.
Peggy Hobscheidt, longtime Syracuse City Clerk is
retiring next month.
Deputy Clerk, Kelly
Farmer, has been hired
as her replacement. Superintendent of Public
MAYOR ORTIZ
Works, Garry Carman will
also be retiring next
month. Jeff Vogt, current utility worker, has
been hired as his replacement. Farmer’s and Vogt’s

meeting.
The Nebraska Affordable Housing Program
will soon award a
$455,000 grant. Mayor
Ortiz researched and
completed the application
for the grant.
The funds, if awarded,
would be for Otoe County

Legion plans poppy
distribution day
The Massie-Richards
American Legion Auxiliary Unit 100 of Syracuse
will have a poppy distribution on Saturday, April
11 in Syracuse.
Each year, American Legion Auxiliary volunteers
distribute millions of red
crepe paper poppies in exchange for contributions to
assist disabled and hospitalized veterans.
The veterans who make
the flowers are able to earn
a small wage, which helps
supplement their income
and makes them feel more
self-sufficient.
The physical and mental
activity of assembling the
flowers also provides many
therapeutic benefits for
them.
The poppy has become
a nationally known and
recognized symbol of sacrifice and is worn by
Americans to honor those
who served and died for
their country.
The objective is to provide disabled veterans with
an income and rehabilitation activity, and to remind Americans of the
sacrifices of their veterans
over the years.
Donations received by
Auxiliary volunteers for
the poppies are used exclusively to assist and support veterans and their
families.

GUEST COLUMNIST
A few questions for
Governor Ricketts
Alvin Guenther
[email protected]
and senior living facilities
provide the greatest avenue for careers offering
salaries and benefits sufficient to survive in small rural communities which will
hopefully help to reduce
the “brain drain from rural
Nebraska.
In my commentary discussing economics and the
choices we make, I specifically quoted the 24/7 Wall
Street and their itemized
list of growth factors for
communities. They specifically itemized the number
of individuals with Bachelor Degrees, infrastructure,
and the prospects for
working age population
growth.
Then why do we continue to guarantee huge
profits to national and
multi-national agri-businesses (Quantity theory of
Money – The theory that
changes in the price level
will be proportional to
changes in the money supply) via the Federal Farm
Bill. The 68346 Zip Code,
(Dunbar, NE) received a
$10,451,110 share of a ruse
of gigantic proportions referred to as the $58.6B
Federal Farm Bill. The
largest recipient in the Zip
Code area was $687,710.97
for the years 1995-2006.
History has shown that
these farm subsidies have
been one of the greatest
catalysts to the rapid erosion of rural Nebraska,
corresponding sky rocketing local property tax increases and wildlife losses.
Nebraska national and
multi-national corporations are stepping up to the
plate to gladly accept their
share of President Obama’s 2015 Pentagon Budget of $585B as subcontractors to big winners
such as Lockheed Martin
Corp., Northrop Grumman Corp., General Atomics and General Dynamics
Corp. whose profits will
leave Nebraska in favor of
Wall Street.
Would someone please
explain to me using quantitive analysis how we can
gladly accept these huge
federal tax payer funded
expenditures to enhance
the profitability of huge
national and multi-national corporations but not
accept the congressionally
approved, paid for Medicaid Redesign Act? The
Medicaid Redesign Act offers all the possibilities of
helping or aiding in the
survival of rural Nebraska,
providing protection from
approximately 1200 health
care bankruptcies per year
and sustaining or enlarging the health care work
force as well as preserving
the rural hospitals of our
state.
Professors Konecny and
Jenkins state that new
monies to our state totaling
approximately $992,000
daily to Medicaid expansion recipients and their
care givers would represent
a total influx of economic
stimulus to rural Nebraska
of $5 billion over 5 years in
new economic activity.
Why, may I ask, would
our newly elected Governor and alleged successful
businessman refuse such
an influx of new money
and economic stimulus to
the rural areas our state?
Perhaps there is a tumor in
the tissue, or other information somewhere we
have not yet been privileged to.
Having just released my
guest commentary discussing the concept that
skepticism can be dangerous, I read a news release
written by Nebraska’s Governor Pete Ricketts attempting to convince Nebraskans that the Affordable Care Act was a failure,
a threat to other programs
and offering political demagoguery and hyperbole
to not support LB 472
known as the Medicaid
Redesign Act.
My first question to Governor Ricketts would be,
‘who will benefit from your
stance on declining the
Medicaid Redesign Act?”
My second question would
be, “can you give me quantified reasons why your assumption holds that the
Affordable Care Act is a
failure? Thirdly, I would
ask, “why do you say that’?
‘Could you explain further?” I am sure further
Socratic questions would
follow.
I stated in a previous
commentary quoting Allen
Jenkins, PH. D, Professor
of Economics and Ron
Konecny, PH. D, Professor
of Management both of
the University of Nebraska/Kearney that, “One
must be careful to avoid
letting ideological positions influence the quantitative benefits”.
Using a more positive,
less threatening approach
let us talk of the quantitative benefits of LB 472.
As we all know, health
insurance costs have inflated, often with double
digit inflation, for over five
decades.
Yes, a part of that inflation resulted from shifting
the demand curve to the
right through increased
numbers of people demanding health care.
A second reason for
these health care cost increases has been the increased numbers of individuals that are not covered by insurance because
of pre-existing health conditions or just simply put,
purchasing food is a priority to purchasing insurance.
A separate group is opting to not purchase insurance. These individuals
choose instead to allow
their health care cost be
absorbed by those that do
purchase
insurance
through cost shifting.
To address that unwise
choice, the Affordable Care
Act mandate requires
everyone to purchase insurance or face a pecuniary burden or fee. The
Medicaid Redesign Act
will amortize health care
costs over time to a greater
number of insured, thus
reducing the cost for all.
This concept is utilized
by farmers, for example, to
justify the purchases of a
new combine by amortizing its cost over a greater
number of bushels harvested.
The citizens of Nebraska
are well aware of our low
unemployment rate. However, we are all keenly
aware that there are also
negative aspects to this
statistic.
Many Nebraskans are employed but
are either underemployed,
part time employed, have
given up attempting to
seek employment or in
jobs offering no health care
benefits.

SEPTEMBER JOURNEY
Bonnets go missing from
church Easter celebration
As I sat in church this
morning—not my usual
pew as I wasn’t quick
enough—I thought something was missing. It finally came to me what it
was. There wasn’t an Easter bonnet in the whole
congregation!
What happened to
them?
Fifty to sixty years ago,
there wouldn’t have been
a woman in that entire
congregation without an
Easter hat!
We may have had drooling babies with bibs so
they didn’t soil their pretty dresses or “little man”
outfits.
We may have had diaper bags filled with all of
the many necessities of
small children.
We, without a doubt,
had high heels for the day
—probably three or four
inches at tops.
For the day and time,
we were dressed to the
”nines” or maybe, even a
ten! And, we had a hat!
This morning, I saw six
inch or more high heels
worn with the loudest,
mis-matched anklets or
PHYLLIS BUELL
whatever they are called
today. No hats and no babies, but oh, my, the fashion statements that were
made.
I don’t know exactly
what those statements
were supposed to say, but
indeed, they were loud!
Looking around, I
couldn’t help but think
about other things that
are no more in our lives.
Digital cameras capture
the most incredulous images today.
No one has to worry
about how many pictures
are left on a roll of film.
If a camera hadn’t been
used for a time, there was
always the worry and
wondering “Did I put a
new roll of film in?”
The day after Easter, if
you lived in the country,
you didn’t have to put the
roll of film in an envelope and mail it off to be
developed and the prints
returned to you.
You could take it to the
corner drugstore if you
lived in town and wait a
couple of days to see if
Aunt Esther had her eyes
closed on all of the family pictures.
Today, you could just
check and if she did, erase
those images and take another image.
I spent many an hour in
the darkrooms of newspapers I worked with.
The results weren’t always stellar.
Sometimes they were
indeed my fault.
I’m a cook that flies by
the seat of my pants,
adding about “so much” of
this and “a little” of that as
I bake.
You can’t do that while
developing film. The effect
isn’t always as great as
when you’re baking.

COURTEOUS COMMENTS
Former HC Pelini refreshes talk
of out-of-step expectations at NU
Spring is a time of renewal in sports just as it is
in nature and in other aspects of life.
Temperatures are on the
rise, and, as we soak in the
sun, we start to build some
expectations for the remainder of the year, both
the realistic and the notso-realistic variety.
Meanwhile, the Nebraska football team continues its work toward a
spring exhibition contest.
The Huskers are definitely in renewal mode
with an entirely new
coaching staff and a head
coach whose sunny disposition leaves fans at
ease.
Re-enter Bo Pelini.
It seems appropriate
that the former coach’s
comments are short and
abrupt, just as his interactions were with fans in
nearly all of his seven seasons in Lincoln.
Pelini just wanted to remind Nebraskans that
their expectations, both
KIRT MANION
for on-field and off-field
performance are out of
step with reality.
Pelini is happier in Ohio
away from a pressurecooker
environment
where you can’t even curse
out the administration in
a public building without
having it “broadcast”
about the state and nation.
Maybe Nebraskans are
tough on football coaches
and, for that matter, football players too.
Twitter accounts seem
to support such an assertion with a small group of
fans, both in mind and in
numbers, making a lot of
noise and calling out college athletes for not doing
well enough on Saturdays.
At the end of the day,
that group of fans, however vocal, remains small.
The majority of Husker
fans, whose voices sound
much less on the negative
side and much more on
the positive—insert hopefulness here—are left to
ponder these expectation
questions.
What constitutes reasonable expectations for
the football program for
the fall of 2015?
When expectations
aren’t met, should they
be lowered?
This columnist in no
way expects to be the voice
of Husker Nation, the
somewhat galvanized
identifier for all Husker
backers.
At the same time, as a
lifelong fan, I feel a sense

came by in the pew to
record our presence in
church.
The very names recorded there brought to mind
yet another change that
has happened in our
world.
Anyone under the age of
25 printed their name.
Has cursive writing gone
the way of Easter bonnets and dinosaurs?
In the “usta be” of long,
long ago, children passed
time quietly coloring or
reading in church during
a sermon that might be
long and somewhat boring to them.
This morning there
were a few giggles and
once in a while a subdued
loud laugh that attracted
my attention.
The cause – text messaging or something similar! O.K., I’m old fashioned and I would like to
see some of the good old
days retained and honored.
I relish the technology I
can understand and utilize in my life.
A lot of it is way, way
over my head.
I still think that good
manners and good common sense should always
be in style. If you’re anywhere near my age, I’ll
wager you understand.
of duty in pointing out
what most of us want
from this program.
Nebraska fans expect
competitiveness.
That manifests itself in
won-lost record—insert
nine wins here—with an
eye toward manner of
competition.
Don’t quit and don’t get
blown out.
Coaches should teach
technique. Coaches should
display composure and
class in the face of pressure.
And, most importantly,
coaches should provide
context of football versus
life, thus allowing players to cope with failure
and success on and off the
field, not just for the seasons at Nebraska, but for
the rest of their lives, no
matter what their pursuits might be.
When coaches fulfill
their duties in the above
regards, players follow
suit, and success also follows.
In watching Riley and
his staff so far, I feel they’re
up to the challenge.
We can have high expectations for these coaches and a positive outlook
for Nebraska football
overall.

NEWS: "The Wind Is Not
a River", by Arnold A.
Griese, is now available in
the Avoca Library. It's a
quiet Sunday morning,
June 8, 1942, on the island
of Attu, off the Alaskan
coast.
Sasan and her younger
brother, Sidak, are on their
way to church when they
realize that their village
will soon be taken over by
the Japanese army. Escaping the invaders, they
helplessly watch the capture of the village. Now,
hiding out in the hills, they
must take their food and
shelter from the land the
same way their Aleut ancestors did.
And when they discover
a wounded Japanese soldier on the beach, their
belief in the Old Ways,
which
Grandmother
taught, is put to a crucial
test.

next in the Avoca Library.

Golfers finish second
at home invitational
Julie Mancini
[email protected]
The Syracuse-DunbarAvoca golfers began tourney play Wednesday with a
second-place team finish at
their own invitational at
Syracuse Country Club.
The Rockets finished at
338, 15 strokes behind Lincoln Christian and ahead
of eight other teams. Individually, Cameron Clark
finished in a three-way tie
for second with a 79, and
Britton Lyon scored an 84
to finish in sixth place.
“Braxton Beach was just
out of the running for 10th
place, losing a score card
playoff,” said co-head coach
Sallie Agena. “Pierce Agena and Monty Roberts
were only one stroke out of
the medals as well.
“We were very pleased
with our golfers as they
played their first tournament of the season and
shot well despite the wind,”
Agena continued. “The JV
will compete in a dual at
home on Monday, April 6.
Our varsity squad will golf
Wednesday, April 8, at DC
West and Monday, April 13
at Ashland.
“With scores so tight
among the players, competition is fierce to earn the
varsity spots for upcoming
invitationals,” she added.
“Many of the golfers have
set high goals for their performance this season. This
makes for intense competition during team playoffs to make the squad for
upcoming competitions.”
Peru’s weekend sweep
gives them cushion
The brooms were out
again for the second
straight weekend as the
Peru State baseball team
captured another key fourgame Heart of America
Athletic Conference series
last weekend.
The Bobcats swept the
home-standing Benedictine College Ravens on
Thursday and Saturday to
take a substantial lead in
conference play.
Three of the four games
were not close with Saturday's opener seeing the
'Cats rally from three down
to capture the win.
With the four-game
sweep, Peru State improved to 25-8 overall and
15-1 in the Heart.
The Ravens fell to 11-21
overall and into a tie for the
third best mark in the conference with an 8-6 record.
Peru State was scheduled to play three nonconference games this
week before getting back
into Heart play this coming
weekend.
On Monday, the 'Cats
were to travel to Midland
University for a double
header . The Warriors, a
Great Plains Athletic Conference team, were 16-23
on the season after splitting a pair of games with
Nebraska Wesleyan University.
Wesleyan was scheduled
to be in Peru on Wednesday for one nine-inning
game beginning.
On Saturday and Sunday, Peru State will be back
in Heart of America action
when they travel to Kansas
City, Mo., to face Western
Division foe Avila University. As of this writing, the
Eagles were tied for second
in the division with Benedictine with an 8-6 mark
as they dropped a fourgame series to MidAmerica Nazarene University, a
team which the Bobcats
swept earlier in the season.
The Syracuse-Dunbar-Avoca track
teams both took first place at the
Auburn quad meet Tuesday at
Auburn High School.
“It was a lot of fun to see both
teams walk away as champions,”
said head coach Rick Nordhues.
“Jake Heitkamp continues to go out
and compete at a high level,” he
continued. “Jonathan Cox performed
real well in the 200. Braxtyn DeGolyer continues to improve in the
hurdles. We have some nice depth on
the boys side.”
Nordhues added that Tanner
Harsin set a new meet record in the
800 meters, breaking the record set
by Tony Neels from Syracuse in
1998.
“Sydney Lintner ran a real nice
400,” said Nordhues. “She will continue to get better. Kim Lowman and
Jordan Shanks are giving us some
nice depth in the middle distance
races and the relays. Our 4 x 100 relay put together a nice race and
showed that they can be real competitive.”
Complete team results from the
meet are as follows:
Boys high jump: Jake Heitkamp,
first place, 6’4”; Trevor Clark, second
place, 5’8”; and Connor Bennett,
fifth place, 5’2”.

Alumni Basketball
It had been several years since a Syracuse Basketball Alumni Tournament was held. The fun returned March
28 with 47 Syracuse Dunbar Avoca High School Alumnus participating in a tournament. In years past, they
played by class (or several classes together). This year, to make the teams even (and give the "old" guys a
chance), organizers did a draft. After a round robin play for seeding, the four teams competed in a singleelimination tournament. Winners are pictured from left: Chase Busekist, Nate Kreifels, Andy Seelhoff,
Austin Landwehr, Brian Werner, Tony Britton, and Wade Janssen.

We welcome new talents and ideas
for activities for the residents. Most
