All language subtitles for Monrovia, Indiana (2018) 720p.10bit.WEBRip.x265-budgetbits

Come on.

God provides for our
care in, in tribulations.

There was a time that
we almost lost our house.

We weren't prepared for that.

It's just something that
comes out of the blue.

I'm at Johnson Bible College,

and the engine in my car blows up.

I'm not prepared for that.

We all have experienced that.

And so tribulations come in our lives,

and so the other thing
that we have to struggle with

when we... we're trying to understand

what is this tribulation
that God is talking about,

is it a single massive event

that is limited to a time and space?

Or is it speaking about the tribulations

that we're going to face all through life?

Remember, Jesus, when he left this,

or before he left this earth,

as he's talking to the Disciples

in John 16:33,

which is just before he begins

to pray for them,

that high-priestly prayer that
we talked about in the sermon,

says this.

"In this world, you will have troubles.

"You will have tribulations.

You will have struggles."

And then he says, "But take heart,

because I have overcome the world."

And so Jesus is already preparing

those that believe in him

that their lives are not going to be easy,

that they're going to be filled

with trials and struggles and tribulations.

And so that tribulation follows
the, the life of the Church

until God comes and makes
everything right again.

Remember, when he, when
he started this whole thing,

everything was perfect.

We messed it up.

We brought the tribulations on ourselves.

This is the boy's team.

And I don't think people
realize just how dominant

we were in basketball, um...

Read a book about this.

In the 1920s, high
school basketball was known

for Kansas, Indiana, and New York City.

So, like, this was, like,
one of the three hotbeds

for high school basketball in the nation.

And from Monrovia, you have three people

who are in the College
Basketball Hall of Fame.

Three.

Piggy Lambert has ties to Monrovia.

They're not strong, but
he's known as a Monrovia boy.

John Wooden was born at Hall.

Ten times he, he coached UCLA

to national championship.

Branch McCracken's from here.

He won two.

So our town has ties to
12 national championships,

more than any other town in the nation,

until the guy from
Connecticut wins a couple more.

So, yeah, this is a really dominant area.

Branch McCracken played
eighth-grade basketball

his sixth-, seventh-,
and eighth-grade years.

And then he got on the high school team,

they won county as...

his freshman year, junior, and senior.

And Monrovia had such a
dominant basketball team,

they went to Cincinnati

and participated in
this tristate tournament.

There were 70 teams there
from three different states,

and we won it twice, all right.

He was actually MVP
of the tournament twice.

Monrovia was so dominant,
they had a traveling trophy.

They let us keep it.

We have the traveling trophy down...

well, now it's at the
library for the display,

but that's how dominant they were.

Um...

Branch McCracken was so well-known

that local high schools, when
they would dedicate their gyms,

they would have him come.

As a high-school player,

he was such a celebrity, he
would go dedicate their gyms.

So he graduates from Monrovia,

he goes to IU.

One year he scored 33%
of all the IU points,

and here's what a lot
of people don't realize.

He was such an athlete, he
didn't only play basketball,

but he was All Big Ten in football.

And he was such a dominant football player

that when he graduated,
he actually got drafted

by the Green Bay Packers
to play pro football

and turned it down

and ended up playing pro basketball

and coached at Ball State,
and then made his way to IU.

As an IU coach, he won
two national championships.

So the IU, the basketball
here is pretty dominant.

It's like when people talk
about Monrovia football,

they get a little touchy.

Like, if you want to
change anything at the field,

people flip out,

because it was their family
that dedicated the light poles

or the grain bin for the concession stand,

or it was their grandfather
that brought his tractor over

to level out the, the goal line.

I mean, so people get really
touchy about Monrovia football,

because there's such a
family, community thing.

I remember I was, like, five.

My dad's like, are you...
"We're going tonight."

And I'm like, "What are we going to?"

He said, "We're going
to midnight practice."

I had no idea what midnight practice was.

Well, Monrovia had this tradition

of midnight practice.

We were the first, first football team

in the state of Indiana
to practice football.

And I remember coming down
there, and it was packed.

It was like a... almost
like a homecoming game.

For people just to watch practice.

And, like, you ran the midnight mile.

So all the linemen ran their mile first.

And it was timed, they kept a record of it.

Then all the backs would
run the midnight mile.

And they did the big eight.

Then after you had two days of two-a-days,

and you all, you all came over for camp.

And everybody spent through,
like, Wednesday to Saturday

in the gym, and you had camp.

And all the moms would cook food,

and it was just a real
community kind of thing

that they don't have now,

because of the way the season starts.

But, yeah, football is a really big thing,

still a big thing here with that.

Everybody needs...

Carrots?

Yeah.

Yeah, I've got
about five pounds of them.

I froze them.

And I'll tell you, I
had something last night,

the best carrots I ever ate.

I might have used them all.

My wife had to go for a two-week vacation,

so I just cooked carrots and ate them.

Diet food.

I never eat carrots that,
that was that good before.

Think it worked? Ate them all.

Well, not work, diet food,

but I drink a lot of
beer to help wash it down.

Oh, okay.

All right, I couldn't figure out.

I was saying, I don't think it worked.

I've been to therapy this morning.

Have you? Yeah.

Early appointment too, right?

Yep. Get it over with.

Yep, I was up there,
and I was there at 6:30.

6:30. Yeah.

I don't know why,

I still don't have the
zip I think I ought to have.

I'm running out of gas.

I just...

Well, you had major surgery.

I know. It's going to take a while.

He said takes it takes
six, he said six months.

Well, it was a year before
he started feeling good.

Yeah, sometimes you don't
even make the surgery.

That's right.

You don't make it out of it.

Sometimes you don't even make it in.

How much more therapy you got to do?

Uh...

Couple more, couple more weeks, I think.

He keeps cranking that
thing up on me every day too.

You know, he turns it up a little bit.

I started out at 15 minutes,

then he cranked it up to 20 minutes.

Now he cranked it up to 25.

On that pedal deal. Yes.

Where you push back and forth.

Uh-huh.

Can you get in the pool yet?

Pool?

No, no.

I ain't got all healed up yet.

How long before you can do that?

Whenever these scabs disappear
and get rid of all that.

That's going to be the best thing for you.

In terms of low impact on your body.

But it's good for you to get you moving.

That's what we did with my mom.

She had the same thing.

Put her in the pool.

I run out of gas.

Yeah, that's how she was for a while too.

No, I just, yesterday,

I don't know, yesterday I did that.

I went home and slept

for about three hours yesterday

after I went to the therapy.

Well, yeah, you're tired, bud.

Oh, yeah.

I feel pretty good today

after I just got back

from therapy.

I pledge allegiance to the
flag of the United States of America

and to the republic for which it stands,

one nation, under God, indivisible,

with liberty and justice for all.

Grand architect of the universe,

we reverently invoke Thy blessing.

Won't thou be pleased to
open this meeting in peace

and close it in harmony.

Amen.

Amen.

Okay,

Mike? MIKE: Yes, sir.

You want to say something? Go right ahead.

Lots of good activity on the county level.

I think that the county is looking at,

"How do we, how does the county
work with the municipalities

"to create density and cluster of growth,

so that we're not so spread
out through the county."

We want to see the municipalities grow

and use the sewer and
water capacities we have.

And that, that will make a, a more...

an efficient delivery of
service on the county level.

So little by little, I
think what we're looking at

is the ideas of cluster
and density working their way

into the county plan as
to how we can seek benefit

of Monrovia, Martinsville,
Morgantown, and Mooresville

being the areas to push people

so that we can still
enjoy the rural aspects

that we like out here on the west side.

And that's, the key is,

hopefully more homes
will be built for people.

We could use a little
population boost in Morgan County.

I was explaining earlier,

some of, some of our key largest employers

are putting pressure on there.

We need housing for our workforce here,

because a workforce that
lives closer to the workplace

is more beneficial to the employer,

more productive.

But having more homes
is not going to help us

as much as getting more business,

because our tax base is, I mean,

if you're just going to build it,

base it on just what the, the hopes are...

They can't support it.

They can't support it.
In the community, like,

the small-town aspect. See that?

So you're not going to get a...

No, I understand that, but...

A fertile field, necessarily,
from more homes in the area.

I'm not necessarily speaking
just of Monrovia when I speak.

But I would urge you to look for a balance

in both population and
commercial tax base growth.

You... we need both.

We need both.

And we've got more, more residential

than we have business,
and that's not helping us.

Without, without a doubt. So.

And then if I may, one
thing to consider is,

when a use is permitted, let
that permitted use flourish.

Just remember, if you
want business to be here,

be friendly to the
business that would be here.

That's a basic philosophy
in economic development.

Your ordinances, your concepts,

your attitudes towards
business should be welcoming,

because if a business
doesn't feel welcomed,

and I'm not just speaking about Monrovia,

but in the past, Morgan
County has a history

of saying, "Eh."

And we're paying the price for that today.

And that's the reason
I came home a year ago,

back to Indiana,

was because the leadership
in the county asked me,

"Will you come be part of this change

that helps us bring some growth?"

That's why I've been here.

So now I understand the
concern about population.

I used to be director of development

for the town of Fishers,

when it went from 4,500 to
18,000 people in the early '90s.

And now, folks, that's
not going to happen here.

Let's hope not.

Well, you know, you're right.

If that's what you don't
want, let's hope not.

We don't want that. That's right.

That's exactly right.

So from a planning perspective,

that's a good thing to know.

But our county has to grow at more than...

less than one percent
annual population growth

per year, or you're all going to suffer.

Monrovia will continue
to suffer without people.

So the issue is, at
what... balance at what cost?

But our county can afford to grow

more than just 600 or 700
people per year on a net basis.

We have room for more people than that.

We just have to figure out where,

through cluster and density
and through good planning.

I think that's what the
county leaders are working on.

That's kind of it in a nutshell.

Dawg House Pizza.

Is this for pickup or delivery?

Ah, come on.

Ho!

Ho!

Ho!

Ho!

Ho! Ho!

For all of you that just joined us,

welcome to Lodge.

We are pleased that you're able to attend

and help us honor a deserving brother.

Freemasonry has always
taught a proper reverence

and veneration for those
whose years have brought them

to positions of eminence in our craft.

Happy indeed is the occasion

when years of age stand
united with years of service.

And when an honor may be conferred

upon a brother who is
both worthy and esteemed.

Every Masonic lodge has delineated

on the master's carpet three steps

which are symbolic of
youth, manhood, and age.

As a Mason, we learn to... just a second...

we learn that we progress through our life

by these three principle stages.

Masonry teaches that in
youth we occupy our minds

in the attainment of useful knowledge,

so that in manhood we
should apply that knowledge

to the discharge our duties

to God, our neighbors, and ourselves,

so that in age, we may enjoy happy memories

of a life well spent.

Monrovia Lodge Number 654

welcomes our honored brother

on an occasion we trust
will be a crowning moment

of his Masonic life.

Brother Senior and Junior Steward,

you will escort...

Brother David Lee Bauer

to the west of the altar.

Now let us give special attention

to the secretary

as he reads the full Masonic record

for Brother Bauer.

Brother David Lee Bauer received
his inter-apprentice degree

April 11, 1967.

He was passed to the fellow craft degree

April 25, 1967,

raised to the sublime degree
of a master mason May 23, 1967.

June 3, 2017, will receive
the 50-year award, gold.

Again, you have approached
the altar of Freemasonry,

this time to receive a...

a recognition that comes only
to those fortunate brethren

who have labored on the
temple for a half a century.

Early in your Masonic career,

you were taught never to enter

on a great or important undertaking

without first invoking
the blessing of Deity.

It therefore behooves us

with the utmost reverence and humility

to offer our supplications to
God and the Father of us all,

that our labors may in all things meet

with His approval.

In Thee, oh Lord, do we put
our trust in days long past.

Thou art still our refuge and our fortress.

For a thousand years in Thy sight

are as but as yesterday when it has past,

and as a watch in the night.

Grant especially to this
Thy servant, David Bauer,

the blessings of life, health, strength,

and the daily provisions of
Thy good and all-wise protection.

Give to him and all of us, we beseech Thee,

wisdom from on high to direct our steps,

strength commensurate with
our tasks to support us,

and the beauty of holiness

to render all our performances
acceptable in Thy sights.

Let goodness and mercy follow all of us

that we may dwell in the
house of the Lord forever.

Amen.

So mote it be.

And now guests, brothers all,

to present the award of gold

for and on behalf of, of
Monrovia Lodge Number 654,

as well as the Grand Lodge
of Free and Accepted Masons

of the great state of Indiana,

it is my pleasure to
introduce one of our own,

a Monrovia past master,

a good friend to many,
and a stranger to few.

Brother Mark Lane Gilkerson.

Worshipful Master, Brother Bauer,

brothers, friends.

Within the radiant
pages of the Great Light,

which rest upon the alter of Freemasonry,

we read again and again
of the privilege it is

for a man to walk humbly
with his Lord for a long life.

50 years ago you remembered your Creator

in the days of your youth.

Today we, we commemorate that completion

of a half century of Masonic service.

In the span of 50 years, each
Mason gives of his substance.

Many give of their time.

Others add loyalty and service.

But to all of us, our
joy of craft gives us more

than we could ever give it in a lifetime.

Thus, when we pay tribute to
you on your golden anniversary,

we pay tribute to the fraternity

which opened its portals to you

and which made it possible
for you to build a life

on its sublime principles and teachings.

Brother Bauer,

with the authority vested in me,

it is my privilege

that on the behalf of
the Worshipful Grand Lodge

of the state of Indiana I present you

with the Grand Lodge Award of Gold,

a token of our friendship
and brotherly love.

May you wear it with
peace, health, and happiness

and walk long in the land
God has provided you with.

And here's your... here's the...

the certificate that goes along with it.

Okay, thank you, sir.

No problem, brother.

Thank you. Congratulations.

On a memorable
occasion 50 years ago,

when the badge of a Mason
was placed in your hands,

you were admonished to
wear that spotless emblem,

spotless apron with pleasure
and honor to the fraternity.

Thus, I, we, trust will
you wear the Award of Gold.

May the joy of this moment
abide with you always,

and may you ever stand
in the northeast corner

as a just and upright Mason,

worthy to be known as a son of God.

That concludes our
ceremony for Brother Bauer.

Mom, can I go try...

About the bench, about the bench.

I have talked at one point
about trying to have two benches.

I know you guys know that
I've been trying to push this.

And only because I'm
trying to get us qualified,

so to speak, for our 100th year,

which is trying to get
your, your name out there.

This is, quote, "first step."

This isn't even the second step up

or the third step up.

So we're trying to do the first step.

So in order to do that,

just want to try to have people stop

to think, or, let's have a
discussion if we have time,

about a possible second bench,

and the location could
be at the Monrovia Library.

Now, I spoke to the lady
that heads up the library,

and she said yes,

she would be more than
willing to go for it.

Because I'm thinking,

"Who's going to sit outside and wait,"

because all those high school students,

there's a lot of them
that go over to the library

and research what they need to,

and get on the computers,

and then wait for their parents and such.

So if you've got the bank, which is busy,

you've got that place also that's busy.

So she said yes,

that she would definitely
entertain the idea

and had no problem with it.

And then she said,

possibly could they
already have a bench going in

that they purchased,

and they said, "If it
was within our budget,

maybe that they could get two of them."

So one inside and one outside?

No, they would have two.

They've got one coming themselves outside.

But we could also donate maybe one also

at the same time, so they
have two of them there.

And they said, if they do,
they have somebody coming,

which was one of the discussions I had

with somebody that was with me about it,

because there's not a real clear area.

But they're going to have somebody come

and actually pour
concrete for the one bench.

So she said, if we know that
we need one for the other bench,

we'll just have them
pour it at the same time.

So that's something I
kind of want to know about

if we really think we
want another one or not.

Do they already
have their bench ordered?

Um, I think so, I think they've already...

Because wouldn't we want it to match?

Yes, and that's what she was saying.

Instead of getting another one,

if we could afford the same one

so it would match theirs.

Any idea how much theirs was?

She didn't tell me at the time.

She couldn't remember for sure.

So I do need to follow
up on that and find out.

But, um... How...

But they're probably getting
ready to pour that cement

this summer. I would think,

our thinking, the way she was talking,

that it would be fairly soon, so.

What does anybody think about the benches?

We'd always talked about starting with one

then growing, where
there's a need for them.

If we see the activity for them, and..

Clearly, there's...

I mean, if they're already putting one in.

If they're pouring cement...

They're serious they want a bench,

and, boy, if we could
have one right next to it,

there, again, we could
do like we did last time.

We give her a budget,

and as long as it falls within the budget,

and maybe ordering two it would be cheaper.

I don't know.

I make a motion that we donate...

budget up to $500

for a bench for the library.

Okay, we've got a motion.

And a second to authorize
a budget of up to $500

for another bench to go
in with the library's bench.

Well, before we vote,

how much did we spend on the one up here?

$465.

Plus we're getting...

It's like $467 and some.

So we're getting really close.

Yeah, and then with the, the plate,

the plate will be about
$45 or somewhere like that.

So this would be within her...

Oh, he's still talking about the...

The new one.

The one at the library.

That's why Diane's going
to have to talk to them.

To find out how much
the... How many votes it.

Yeah, and she comes back and...

They should check this one out.

And if she comes back
and says, "Well, that's $600,

and here's the one they're getting,"

we can always reappropriate...

Okay.

But this is a motion to
put a budget out there,

maximum $500,

for allowing Diane to work with the library

for an additional bench
to go with their bench.

Any other discussion?

And, and the reason we...

the reason I chose that

was that when we were
putting the bench out there,

and we were looking at it that day,

Jerry and I and Janice,

if you go through town,
and you really actually stop

to look at the benches in town,

they have a lot of them out there.

We do, we actually have a lot.

And there is a lot of
benches in town already.

So I don't know, I don't
know who have put them out,

but they all match the same,

and they're around up and down Main Street.

So I was like, "The
library's the only place."

The school has one.

Except, the only thing except,

is that the Monrovia
Elementary does not have one.

Well, that could be our next one.

Well, let's get this motion...

through. All right.

All right. So we've got the motion.

All in favor, by the usual sign?

By demand.

All opposed?

Okay.

And both places where these are going

Yes.

I mean, the bank gets
tons of traffic every day.

The library gets a lot of traffic.

So we'll have a lot of visibility,

and it sounds like there's a need.

So that's good.

Push it away from you.

Pushing away.

Doing those toe touches.

Okay?

So I would assume the
entrance is going get approved.

The thing I asked them about is,

"How about the road
going down to Section Six?"

Which would be the next
section that he would go for

to get approval on.

And he said they hadn't gotten
approval to design that yet.

So I don't know why Westport is,

is not moving forward on that part,

other than the fact that
they have to go through

some farm land

that's not their property.

So, in other words,
their property goes down

to pretty, pretty much the
end of Section Six right now.

So they've got a little strip of property

they'd have to come up
through the farm ground

to get up to the entrance.

Well, right now, they're looking at,

there's 151 homes they want to build,

that they still own land on, okay,

that they want to build.

Yeah, I don't know what the number is.

All right, now my understanding is, is that

if they build this entrance,

if they're in some sort of
collusion or something, I guess,

with, with Fraberg's, is the thing is...

Collusion? He's hoping...

It's called cooperation. I know.

Or you could call it...

I'm just kidding.

I call it collusion.

What may be. Because what,

what I'm wondering is, is there,

has there been some sort
of a sweetheart deal saying

that, "Okay, when this comes up

"in front of the planning commission,

we're going to go ahead and approve that."

See... Who?

What I'm saying is, is
that if they build this road,

they're going to want
to build their houses.

Yes. Okay.

And if they planning
commission doesn't approve that,

then, you know... Right, but...

I mean, do they realize
that that might not happen?

Because it does change
the demographics of the town

as well too.

Does that have to come
to this council at some point?

Oh, it well.

Planning commission, and then we...

No.

Then the council has to approve it.

No. That's zoning.

Planning commission approves this,

their entrance along with Section Six.

It has nothing to do with town council.

Oh, okay.

So, so they're
looking to do this entrance.

But the little area to connect
it to the actual community

is what the problem is.

Well, I don't know that it...

Well, maybe not a problem. Yeah, yeah.

I don't know why...

and I, I could be speaking out of turn,

because this has been probably
two months or three months,

could be four months
since I talked about it.

So I could, I could check with him again,

but for some reason or other, they hadn't,

his firm hadn't gone, gotten any approval

other than the entrance.

You mean Westport's
firm hadn't gotten?

No, Banning Engineering.

Oh, Banning, I'm sorry.

Okay, I'm just trying to...
They designed the entrance.

They've submitted to the INDOT.
They have a contract for it.

and I believe they're
close to getting their permit

on, on the entrance.

But what I don't understand,
or what I don't know,

and what I was told maybe four months ago

is they hadn't, his firm
hadn't gotten any approval

to do the rest of the
drive down to Section Six.

Just seems kind of...
wonder why that's happening.

I was just wondering why I'm
just finding this out from Ken.

...connect it.

Then what's the purpose of that?

Typically you're not
going to spend the money on,

you limit what you do front-wise.

You do enough to get zoning on property

before you actually can
get the financing for it.

And I will tell you...

They're treating this as
something similar, yeah.

Yeah, it's a good point.

I will tell you that I caught...

when was it we had a meeting with them?

About the middle of July in '16?

Probably. Something
like that, with Westport.

And I cautioned them.

I said, "Don't come in with,"
'Yeah, we've got an entrance, '

"'and they said they'll do it, '

Everything verbal and all that."

That's what killed them
on the other entrance.

They, they kept saying that
they had, they had approval

through Steve Miller to go
through that construction drive

Mm-hmm. and all that.

So I told them, you know,

"When you come through here
in Section Six next time,

"you've got to have all
your eggs in the basket--

the entrance, the road, everything done."

And it's going to be tough on 'em,

because they're going to spend that money,

and then we've still got to go
through the planning commission

for approval.

And it will change the
demographics of the town,

because if you add 151 more homes,

you're going to be
looking at maybe anywhere

from 300 to maybe 500 more people.

I'm just saying. Let me ask you something.

You've been looking for a second entrance

without going through that four-way stop.

Where the hell do you want to put it?

Tell me.

I'm serious.

I'm not, no, I'm not,
I'm not saying that at all.

You can put a
second entrance out there.

Okay, thank you, thank
you. I am very thankful.

The only thing is that, what I'm saying is,

are they guaranteeing
that they're going to build?

That's what I'm saying.

Well, that's what he's saying.

They're going to have,

he already cautioned them
to have all the eggs...

There is no sweetheart deal.

All your ducks in a row.

If that's what you're saying.

Because, I mean, I just
wonder why I found out from Fraley.

I mean, because Westport
does own that land,

and I remember the meeting.

I wasn't on the town council.

And it was stated, you know,

"If you want to have the approval,

you're going to have to have
all this, this, and this."

And he was not happy with
that way that meeting ended.

And, um, but you know what?

That's okay.

Because everybody stuck together,

and now it's going forward. Yeah, mm-hmm.

It's taking a while. Yeah.

But it's going forward.

So I'm, I'm happy about that.

And I understand your concern.

The schools, but you know
what, that's part of progress,

which is what Mr. Dellinger was saying.

I'm not against progress.

Well, building 151 more homes in Homestead

isn't necessarily progress...
967 homes originally.

And I, I think as a community, most people,

if you polled them outside of Homestead,

and maybe inside of Homestead,

would not support 151 more homes
at that location in Homestead.

Well, I would prefer to
have it the way it is now.

Sure.

But I would also like
to have a second entrance.

But they also own the land.

Yeah, I don't know...

And the, the schools were too small

when Homestead was first built.

Sure.

And there was a contingency
of people in this community

that didn't believe Homestead
should have been put there.

So... but it's there now.

But we still have a... we
should control what we have

and not allow anymore
of a mess to be created.

And, um...

Well, we can't prevent them,

we can't prevent them
from building forever.

I don't think there's anything
like what you're going after,

and he's going after is, is

controlling the number of homes they build.

And they've got approval in a P.U.D.

to build so many homes out there.

The only thing stopping
them is the second entrance.

Well, the planning
commission, as you said,

still has to approve it.

I know, but I'm, I'm telling you,

you don't stop them because
they're building too many homes.

They've got approval for a P.U.D.

that allows them to build those homes.

But we still have to
be wise stewards of our community,

of our police, of our school system,

and, you know, it's a contentious subject

when you talk about
Homestead in this community.

And I know there's people
that live in it at this table.

But it's not been overall a total positive

for the community,

and it's had a huge
impact on the school system.

I live... there's a police run there

at least almost every day.

Maybe not every single day, but many days.

And so there's, like the lot,

there's a lot of negatives that go along

with a development like that.

There's police runs
that go to different communities,

and I know that because, since...

And we need to be... To some areas also

that are not just Homestead.

Oh, sure, it can go anywhere.

But that certainly is a, is
a magnet for them, and, um...

I don't see that.

The homes, the homes

and the foreclosures have
been, really been a negative.

But I'm just telling you, I'm not,

I'm not sure that you can...

based on what you're looking at,

I'm not sure that's an issue
the plan commission can take up.

Well, it may or
may not be, but like I said,

we, we need to be wise

as to what we, how we grow our community.

And I don't think 151 more homes,

whether they had approval early on or not,

is a wise decision for
this community to make.

I think it, it impacts
us in a negative way.

Um... you know, that's my opinion.

Oh, sure. It's just my opinion.

But I think it's an opinion
that I, I know for a fact

is shared with quite a number
of people in the community,

who, who believe the same way I do.

Homestead brought, it brought
the million-dollar treatment,

our treatment plant. Mm-hmm, it did.

And a state football championship,

which a lot of those
kids came from Homestead.

And for the sewer...

You know a majority of
the people on the fire department

who volunteer, the majority
of them live in that community.

So there's a lot of
positives to the community.

And they do have runs here and there,

but there are areas in this
town that are riddled nonstop,

almost every other day there is a run

that is a negative run
that is not to Homestead.

So it's not just
Homestead, I mean, there's...

No, it's not just Homestead.

But it certainly by population density

does draw a large number.

The majority, a lot of people
who are moving into Homestead

are actually Monrovians
who are coming back.

Who actually went to
school, different generations,

they're younger, they're
actually coming back

and they're being able to buy into the town

that they grew up in.

And so forth.

So, I mean, it's accommodate... I mean,

there's a lot of positive
people in our community.

There's a lot of good, positive people.

We may have a few bad
apples here and there,

but that's everywhere.

Hello?

Till they got older, even.

Hi.

Everything... okay?

Everything go okay?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, some people pull on those full moons

or something else, and.

And this is another thing,

but I mean, I didn't see anything else.

Actually seeing some frustration there.

And I was like, "Oh, no!"

Then I looked online,

and I still had ten days to return it.

My father is going to
propose to his girlfriend.

Wait, what?

My father's going to propose
to Hannah soon, he said.

Wait, what did you just say?

This is going to be the
two games with theirs...

Yeah, this is two games.

Don't forget the jelly beans.

Yeah, you can sit there.

Did you know...

I want that.

Can you throw the paper in the trash?

Isn't it cute?

Swaddler.

Here you go.

It's like Christmas morning.

Let's see what we got.

Oh, shoes.

Oh, those are cute.

They got Mickey on them.

Cute. Can you throw this away for me?

Aw.

Oh.

It's bibs and burp cloths and a blanket.

This is cute.

Oh, it's got pigs on it.

Oh, I have to look.

We got onesies.

How cute.

"Mighty Cute."

That one's a big one, right here.

Oh, this is cute, I like it.

I'm bleeding more than last time.

Just wanted to be kept sternal.

Yeah.

I think it's a little short.

There it is.

I've got to put him in the truck later.

Oh, we're putting him back in the truck?

Mm-hmm, the great Dane.

Yeah? Yeah.

So they're taking him home?

Um, I guess.

I don't know if we were referring him

or... Oh, okay.

I'm not real sure about it, really.

Come here, Bain.

Let see if you can get up here.

Get your feet up here.

I just don't know.

It's kind of soft.

Try this one.

You come over here.

Oh, I like that.

Goodnight, Bain.

Can you feel me wiggling? Nope.

Ah.

I don't know as if I like this one

any more than that other one.

It's about 16, it's the
same head-to-toe length,

but it's about, a king
is about 16 inches wider.

Okay. All right.

Yeah, which is, it's quite
a bit of sleeping room.

Are you currently in a queen, or...?

Yeah, yeah.

Currently in a queen? Yeah.

Not ever slept, I mean,

other than maybe a hotel or something.

But... Right.

But never slept in a king? No.

Yeah, it's, it's a big improvement.

I can just tell you, I, I
made that switch years ago.

We had a, a rental not too long ago

at a cabin, and it had a king.

Loved it. Yeah, yeah.

You know, so kind of looking.

Yeah, I always say to
my wife, "I love you,"

but when I go to sleep,
I want to have my space.

See, there you go.

It's nice. Yeah.

And then did you like
the, uh, the Comfortaire?

Lay down on it and see what you think.

Nope.

Can't do it. Too hard?

It's a little too firm.

Bring you pacifier.

It's only $99,
15-year full warranty.

So it won't extend your mattress warranty,

which is ten years,

but if something stains it in year 12, 13,

this company will replace your mattress

or have it cleaned.

Different from the manufacturer's warranty,

which gives you an initial
five years of protection.

Here's how it works.

See, there's no lid on that jar?

Right? MAN: Yeah.

Turn that over, hold it there.

Here, pass it around.

Nothing will come through.

So that's our, that's our sweat,

any kind of body fluids, yeah,

it will keep everything from
going through to the mattress.

And then we also lose
billions of skin cells

and hair follicles and
that type of thing, right?

So as you can feel there,

there's no lid on that jar either, right?

You're right.

But can you smell what's in there?

Can I smell it? Yeah, go...

I don't have a sense of
smell, but maybe you do.

Yeah, I smell it.

And what is it?

It smells like baby powder.

That's what it is. Okay.

And you know when you open
a bottle of baby powder,

how it goes poof, it's very fine?

Mm-hmm. And you can see

there's no lid on this.

Nothing comes through.

So this is our skin and our hair.

If you can keep the
skin, hair, and the fluids,

that's the water for dust mites.

So if you can keep that out,

that will make your mattress last longer.

Ah. Definitely.

This is about how much

the average human sweats every night.

Half of it is vaporized through breathing.

The other half is in the mattress.

That's gross.

Yeah, this is gross.

An unprotected mattress, in ten years,

287 gallons of dried-up
sweat, approximately,

approximately 34 pounds of dead skin,

and seven to eight million
dead and alive dust mites.

So this is what deteriorates a mattress

and makes it unhealthy.

So we always recommend putting
a waterproof protector on it,

and since you don't
need the active cooling,

this one will be great. WOMAN: Okay.

Okay? MAN: Okay.

Mm-hmm. All right.

Cameron, would you take the ring

and place it on Natalie's left ring finger

and repeat after me.

"With this ring, I thee wed."

With this ring, I thee wed.

And Natalie, would you take this

and place it on Cameron's left ring finger

and repeat after me.

"With this ring, I thee wed."

With this ring, I thee wed.

At this time, Natalie
and Cameron would like

to assemble their unity cross.

This is a cross, this cross
is a beautiful sculpture

they will display in their home

as a reminder to them

of the covenant they are making today.

In Genesis chapter one

we read that God created
man in His own image.

That means that he created man
bold, strong, to be a leader,

to be a protector of his wife and family.

The outer form of the unity cross

represents the strength,
leadership, and protection

of the man.

The book of Ephesians reminds husbands

to love their wives as
Christ loved the Church,

totally and completely
giving himself to her.

The passage from Genesis
two that we shared earlier

reminds us that the woman
has, was taken from man.

The bride's piece of the unity
cross represents the beauty

and the many capabilities of the woman,

designed with intricate, beautiful detail,

and is placed inside the
protection of the groom's cross,

completing the sculpture

and representing the two becoming one.

To complete this sculpture

representing Natalie and
Cameron's covenant love

to each other,

we are placing three
pegs to hold it together.

These pegs represent the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit,

showing God's place in this covenant

and the security and completedness

that only our Heavenly Father can give.

The scriptures tell us

that a three-stranded
cord is not easily broken.

Matthew 19 reminds... says,

"For this reason, a man will
leave his mother and father

"and be united to his wife,
and the two will become one flesh.

"So they are no longer two, but one flesh.

"Therefore, what God has joined together,

let no one separate."

Who's you got, Gary?

We got Gary Alex and Jesse Evans.

50-50 contract.

Okay, hang on just a sec.

Okay, Gary, I've got it weighed.

It's dry, we're going into number two.

No, the Cubs lost last night.

All right.

One to nothing.

Nine innings, and they
couldn't get a home run.

They couldn't get a run in in nine innings.

Must have been the pitcher.

Now, I know you got a
ticket back here for me.

I've got something working.

Oh.

Oh, yeah, that would be a good one.

That would be a good deer, deer scope.

No, I don't have any objections at all.

Okay.

I like those heads.

While we're doing that,
I want, I want to see anyway.

Okay.

Go ahead. go
ahead, get it out of there.

Okay. And I'll...

Which one do you want?

You want a .45 Long Colt,
or you want the .460 or...?

Oh, right there's some.

We looked at them last week.

I'm not sure if they,
which one was cheaper.

That was a cheaper one, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Okay, yeah, I'll start with this.

100 and... 260-grain is what this is.

That's probably the only
one you got, isn't it?

260-grain?

Yeah, in .454... 454?

Okay.

How much was these?

Do you remember?

You remember how much those were?

Let's go find out. Okay.

Is that a mag, or...?

Is that a mag,
MAN 1: Let me see that.

I read online

you can shoot .45
Schofield through that also.

Have you ever heard of .45 Schofield?

Huh.

You know, like the old
Smith & Wesson Schofields?

Yeah, that is an old, old revolver,

but I didn't know it
was a different casing.

Oh, okay.

I've had the... but
it was a Schofield design.

Huh.

Yeah, I'm anxious to try
this in deer season this year.

I got a spot there in Peregrine,

outside of Peregrine. Do you?

I've got a guy that comes to the auction,

and he said, this guy, he's
got about 200 or 200 range.

I'd be shooting them deers
right outside your door down there

that have been eating,
been eating your corn.

Yeah, I probably will.

The neighbor gave me permission
to hunt right there, so.

Take that, you corn-eating deer.

Yeah.

Our blueberries are
getting, producing berries.

I'll have to bring you some blueberries.

Oh, Barney, I forgot to tell you,

went to the hospital on um, uh... Monday,

took his gallbladder out.

Oh, he did? Yeah.

You know, I've been
telling you that he's had,

he's had a real severe digestive problem

here for quite a while. Yeah.

And they screwed around and operated,

and messed his esophagus up. Yeah.

And screwed around with
his stomach and messed it up.

Oh, yeah.

And I'll bet you the whole time

it's just been a gallstone problem.

My wife just found out
she's got gallstones.

Yeah.

So she's got to have
hers removed next month.

Well, he's still over at Hendricks County.

Oh, he is? Yeah.

Oh, man, hope he'll be all right.

If it's just gallbladder,
it's nothing serious.

They said he's doing good.

Is he? Yes.

Okay, that's good. He
said he's feeling better

than he's felt for years.

Yeah, I bet that will
make a big difference.

Oh, yeah.

I don't think big enough...

Oh, you need any boxes?

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, if you happen to have any.

Yeah, we always need...

This is supposed to
be, according to reviews,

Yeah.

Right out of the box,
right off the iron sights.

Right. Yeah.

It is hilarious.

You look bad.

That is awesome.

It will fit in there like that.

Yeah. Without the scope.

Without a scope, man, you've got it made.

Yeah.

Oh, man.

You get paid for it, Jim,

you ought to take that out back, shoot it.

Okay, we'll see.

From what I read, it's not that easy.

Yeah we'll go back and shoot,

when the neighbor lady's
picking the strawberries

in the, in the garden.

And I'm scared of her having...

There's not that much recoil on it,

from what I've read.

What I like about it, it
will shoot .45 Long Colt...

Me too.

.454 Casull and the .460.

Yeah, exactly, that's what I like about it.

It shoots three rounds.

There's another one too.

.45 Schofield.

.45 Schofield, won't it?

Yeah.

Thank you.

We'll see you later.

Come back and see us.

Oh, I'll be back.

Oh, I know.

The water department
and the fire department,

not agreeing as to who has the right

to go ahead and-and run
these things, and evidently,

and I don't know

if you're aware of this or
not, well, I guess you did.

You posted it on-on

Homestead Reporter that
fire inspector was in.

And Bob's already been there.

All fire hydrants under
the 2014 state fire code

must be inspected and flushed yearly.

Mine hasn't been touched in the three years

I've lived in Homestead.

But, again, as Bonnie
so adequately pointed out,

Morgan Country considers
them flush hydrants.

Now, I don't know why you
need three hose connections

to a flush hydrant, but--

But if I remember correctly,

those hydrants were put in

by the developer.

Yeah, CP Morgan. Yes, they were.

CP Morgan, who does not exist anymore.

CP Morgan put all the water
lines in, the sewer lines,

and the stormwater drains.

Well, who approved those hydrants?

Isn't that part of the planning commission?

That they look, say,
"Yes, these are approved

items to go in to the development?"

I imagine that the water
company had to inspect the lines.

But yeah, but I'm talking
about the hydrants themselves.

Somebody had to say, "Yeah,
these are approved hydrants.

Go ahead and put them in the community."

So at what point in time did
they suddenly not be approved?

Is it not true

that their-their hands
are tied also, Rural Water?

I think so.

They're a Rural Water that's governed

by the government, really.

And they cannot serve anything
other than residential water.

Is that correct?

That's usually what we've heard from.

Okay. That's what we've heard, yes.

Okay, so I don't know, if you want to...

if you want to get the real story,

you need to get

all the people in-in the discussion.

Rural Water has a line that
goes down Washington Street.

The town tried to get a water line a block

up to Main Street, and put a fire hydrant.

They denied it, because...

they-they don't serve for fire.

They serve for residential
only, and their hands are tied.

And I can't-- I can't give
you the particulars on it.

You need to be talking to Glen Miller.

And not the band leader.

The federal government has
all these regulations and such

that they're coming in to
give residential water supply

to all these homes out in the country,

and that-a-way they can get
by without having to provide

fire hydrants, fire... fire service.

They would like to do,

you know, serve, but they can't.

But it's because they're structured,

they're like a co-op.

Because they're a co-op,

there's only certain things
that they can do. Yeah.

There's some kind of
government involvement...

They are... that I can't explain.

And their board limits them as to--

their structure delimits
them as to what they can do.

And this is why we need to be very careful

about allowing future developments

and high-density housing in this community.

Because we don't have the infrastructure

to really support all that.

So it needs to be

thought through and well-planned,

and this is a good example of that.

Several years ago,
the town was talking about

maybe building its own water system,

with its own tower here,

so that we could provide fire service,

and we had several people
complain about the town...

uh, getting into the water, water business

since we've already had water service here.

So is there a solution
to this, this problem?

I mean, honestly? Is there a solution?

It's not funny. I'm not laughing.

No, I'm not laughing. I'm
saying, is there a solution?

I mean, there's tons of
people in our community...

It's been going on for a long time.

...who are mad.

Yeah, and I think we're
going to be at the mercy of what,

Morgan County Rural Water

and the way the fire department is set up,

and the dichotomy between
the two until we, you know,

until one of them agrees with something.

It's not the fire department.

No, I'm just saying the
dichotomy between them.

You know, the thing is, is that

until they can find some way that,

to-to make this thing work, I mean,

we can't do anything about it, really.

I mean, we're not in a position
to do that kind of thing.

We have no authority, for one.

I mean, we can as far
as our planning, you know,

as far as the hydrants
are concerned, but see,

these hydrants were
out here before the town

was incorporated, too.

So, I mean, who oversaw that?

Nobody, just the county.

I don't know what the county's thinking is

or what the county thinks about this.

You know, as far as I know,
they've been pursuing, you know,

like this county wide
ambulance service, I mean,

I don't know what they do
as far as other townships,

or other small communities,
you know, are doing this.

When you live in the
country, you're not going to have

the infrastructure support
that you're going to have

in town. True.

And so that's a decision
that some people, you know,

go into knowingly,

and maybe some people
went into unknowingly.

Unfortunately, but you
know, there was a time

when we didn't even
have those flush hydrants.

And so you are going to be dependent upon

the tanker truck and a pond

that you might have on your property,

that they can fill up
from or what have you.

That's part of living in the country.

I didn't buy

a pre-existing house.

And I had it built right across the street

from what I thought was a fire hydrant.

The builder certainly didn't
offer that information, that

"Hey, by the way,

you know that's not really
a fire hydrant there."

Many of the people I've talked to--

and probably the same people
you've talked to, Bonnie that,

and you, too, Phil-- have
said, "We weren't told.

"We didn't know.

"We've seen these red things
sticking up out of the ground

"where you connect hoses to,

and assumed that was a fire hydrant."

I mean, granted, I'll be
the first one to tell you,

I was born and raised in Indianapolis,

and they're yellow there,
but they still look the same.

It looks like a fire hydrant to me.

It turns on like a fire hydrant.

So, you know, a rose by any
other name is still a rose.

Still a rose, yep.

But, you know, it's a shame that
all these people have moved in,

and there's that outside possibility

that somewhere down the road,

Homestead's going to be allowed to expand--

hopefully not, but that's
another subject altogether.

And, again, you're going
to have more flush hydrants,

because Morgan County Rural Water

doesn't supply firefighting water.

So, you know, here we go,

you're going to build this
big community, new homes,

lots of new residents, larger
tax base, the town grows.

We've got no fire protection.

The fire department would love to work.

We have a beautiful fire department.

It's better than some of the
large towns I've been through.

I agree.

But, unfortunately, they're
dependent on a tanker truck.

And that tanker only holds so much water.

And as close as some of those
houses are in that community,

if one burns for more than ten minutes,

you're going to have two burning.

A half hour of a house burning,

you could have three or four burning.

And you're not going to
have enough tanker trucks.

You know, so--

See, what the fire
inspector says, and--

All's I'm saying is,
yeah, we'll wait and see

what the fire inspector says.

But this thing with having...
Monrovia Water Company

should not be thought
of as an impossibility.

It may be a necessity.

If you want this town to grow and prosper,

then you've got to be
willing to invest the money

to make it grow.

People aren't going to move
in and be willing to settle down

in this town if they
know you can't offer them

fire protection.

Now, I have heard, of course,

you've got your hydrant bridge on the top.

Right.

And then they also
have a long reach... pole

that goes down into the,
down beside the fire hydrant,

to turn the actual water supply on.

And so they can... they
can go down with that wrench

and turn the water supply on.

And they carry that

on the fire trucks. Right.

Well, I guess there's not

a whole lot we can do here.

Well, we know there is a problem.

I think we can wait,

I think we'll get a fire marshal report

pretty quick. Mm-mm.

You know,

because I think it's
important to this town.

Not just to the residents of Homestead.

Thank you!

Well, my brother--

I got my youngest brother and my boy,

just six months difference,

but my brother is six
months younger than my boy,

and my boy's, his uncle, see?

No, he's my boy's uncle. Yeah.

And he's six months younger.

Yeah.

Donna died, you knew that, didn't you?

Yeah. Who?

Donna Henshaw.

Donna Nolan, Donna Henshaw used to be.

Yeah, Ronnie Kenward is gone, too.

Now, if you get a chance, please.

I was telling my wife,

when I went over to
both-both of those funerals,

it's just something to me,

but they showed them videos
of them when they was kids.

Well, I've known them since first grade.

So every-every picture and every...

I remember them like that.

Yeah. Yeah.

A lot of times you go see
these pictures of people,

and "Oh, yeah, he was
cute when he was a kid.'

You know, but I remember
them, you know, just known them

since about the first day
of school in the first grade.

Yeah. Yeah.

Hey, that lady that works in
the bank up there in Belville,

do you bank in there any?

I go-- I go in there,
but I don't bank there.

Said her name's Hampton,

and I-- is she related to Steve?

Well, probably.

Have to be, wouldn't she? Yeah.

What's... I'm trying to think
which one's in there, who...

She ain't as old as me, but...

Uh, I can't think who it is...

Uh, she probably is related to Steve.

Maybe by marriage.

Do you know Mike Hampton or... Steve?

Is that Steve's brother?

No, Steve's... Steve's cousin.

I don't know him.

See, Jack, Jack Hampton was Steve's dad.

Okay?

Roy Hampton was Mike's dad.

Jack and Roy were brothers. Okay.

Well.... They're both
from Stilesville, right?

Both from Stilesville,

and Hampton's Garage there
in Stilesville for years,

those two brothers ran
that garage, for years.

Together, huh?

Together, Roy and Jack, years and years.

But anyway, I saw...

...Mike,

which is Roy's boy, he's in bad shape.

And then I saw his brother,
Rodney, in here the other day,

and dang if he's got
cancer, and he's in bad shape.

Can't drive.

We're pretty lucky, ain't we?

Oh...

Hi, Preacher.

Hi, Steve.

Hey, how you all doing?

I'm fine, how are you?

I'm wonderful.

Did they get that tree
down without dropping it

on Jimmy's shop?

Yeah. They got it down.

I was over there when
they was working on it.

Yeah, got her down.

You'd better sit down and join the music--

I mean, the crowd.

So I do all-natural medicine.

I'm a holistic nurse practitioner.

I treat patients with natural medicines.

I'm not against prescription
medicine, but I...

There's a time
and place for it, yeah.

There's absolutely
a time and a place for it.

I truly believe God gave
us plants on this Earth

to be able utilize in medicine.

So if I can treat my
patients using natural stuff,

that's organic and elite for you,

Zilis is a company that
actually brings brand partners

that have the science-based
research behind it,

evidence-based, that
actually can change lives.

When we put all that stuff in our body,

it absorbs through and
causes, you know, toxins

if they're not good for you.

So this company is a

pay it forward company, per se,

because every purchase you
make sends nutrition to Haiti.

We sent 500,000-- 500,000--
nutritional packs to Haiti

in the month of August
by people just buying

what they normally buy

with sports nutrition, pain medicine.

And that's the reason this company exists,

because they... he wanted to
create a pay it forward company

that not only gave people

the health and wellness that they need,

but also send nutrition packs
to babies that are malnourished.

And he said,

"We're going to end
world hunger with this."

And so that's why he
created the company of Zilis.

Which means, "multiply
nutrition" in Swahili.

It is it. Yeah.

But the hemp oil, I'm telling you, my life,

so we talked about insomnia,
for three years, I never had...

I didn't take medication except for

Topamax for my migraines.

But... I tried natural.

Three years ago I woke up
in the middle of the night,

my husband had passed
away, he went home to Heaven.

And I stopped sleeping,
started having anxiety.

I was a Girl Scout leader,
helped with Boy Scouts.

I spoke at my college graduation.

So very, very outgoing.

Anyways, after that happened,

I ended up having severe anxiety,

severe depression, and
I could not sleep, so...

That was me.

It was? A few months ago.

I could not sleep at all.

That hurts the next day.

I found a product that
actually helped me sleep.

No, I'm telling you, it's
been life-changing for me.

That's why people that have

renal problems or liver problems,

when you increase that circulation,

that microcirculation,

it tremendously helps that kind of stuff.

Now, vision...

I bought my first car when I was 15,

and I would pull up, and Don,

the druggist that owned the place,

he'd be standing out
back smoking a cigarette,

and I'd walk up, and I'd say,

"Hey, Don, you got another cigarette,"

and he'd go, "Yeah, sure."

And we'd stand there and smoke a cigarette.

And I'm 15, okay?

And... he--

he goes... one time I went in, and...

he always had, oh, four
or five bottles, pints,

you know, of cherry vodka or-or...

peach schnapps or something,
you know, something.

And... four or five six-packs of beer.

And one time I said,

"Oh, hey, give me-- give
me a bottle of cherry vodka."

It was 95 cents.

And I says, "I need a-- I
need a six pack of beer."

And set it up there on the counter,

and threw the money there,
and out the door I went.

Well, now, all of my friends are going,

"Well, you're 15.

You're buying beer, booze, and all this?"

They all go... And no-- uh-uh.

They send me.

So I would go up there,
but if it cost 95 cents,

it cost them two bucks.

I never-- and I didn't
drink when I was young.

And... but I always had gas.

Sunoco 260.

Pump that right in there.

I always had a full tank.

It was-- yeah.

Bought my first car for $595.

It was a '63 Impala SS 327

power glide, black, red
bucket interior with console.

Sharp.

Yep.

No, uh-uh, I was 15.

Now, my second car

was a '66 Chevy II SS 327,

375 horse, M22 rock pressure.

My brother bought it brand new,

and two years later I bought--

he bought it for...

$2,900 and... some change.

Two years later, I paid $1,700 for it.

And then... and then two years later,

I had a wife that said, "It goes or I go."

And I chose the wrong one.

I used to-- used to
go to Hilltop Speed Shop

and give them

my paycheck, and they'd give me
a part and a few dollars change.

And then I would have
to... like I said, we were...

when I'd go over to my dad's house,

we were 40 miles west of Chicago,

and we would drag light
to light for a dollar.

Okay. Okay?

Because a dollar was a
lot of money back then

when you're only making,
you know, at that time

I think I was making $1.42 an hour.

I put a 513 rear gear in it.

I was guaranteed light to light.

Now, if I had to go two
lights, I'm in trouble.

But I could get...

but there was this little
48 Anglia that had a 427,

and whenever he would punch it,

the whole thing would jump off the ground.

I mean, just up and down.

And... there was no way I could beat him.

It just didn't happen.

And 1741.

Last four numbers on that gray
ticket, 1788, 1707 and 1741.

I think Shirley would say,

"One day I'll be sleeping
when death knocks on my door,

"and I'll awake to find
that I'm not homesick anymore.

I'll be home where I belong."

Beloved, we come today to thank the Lord

for the 74 years

that he learned-- that he
loaned Shirley Frick to us.

We honor her today.

But most of all we honor her
Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

For God's word

says so clearly to be absent from the body

is to be present with the Lord.

And Shirley has never been
more home in all of her life.

We are reminded that first of all,

God promises, He promises us his peace.

Let not your heart be troubled.

"You believe in God," Jesus said.

"Believe also in me."

Now, Jesus spoke those
words because he knew,

it is our tendency to become
troubled, to become burdened.

And he knows that all of us
struggle with worry and doubt

and deal with the grind of life at times.

It happens to us all.

But His reminder is this.

Don't be troubled.

Don't despair.

Don't worry.

Don't panic.

I will give you peace.

And He does.

And along the way, God gives
us his presence and His joy

and the simple pleasures of
life that mean so much more.

He-he gave them to Shirley,
family, and friendship,

and meaningful work, and special memories.

And they give us a lot
of joy when we look for it.

You see, the Bible says,

"There's a peace that
passes all understanding,"

and I don't know if we'll
ever fully experience that

until we get to Heaven,
but I know we will then.

And, oh, friends, it gives us
peace to think about Shirley.

You see, if you were looking
for someone to give up,

don't look at Shirley.

You stay at your work.

You stay with your commitments.

You stay with your faith,

and oh my, how that certainly applied

to family.

Now, I'm going to... I'm
going to say this truthfully,

and I'm going to think that it would be,

but Bill said that they
never yelled at each other,

never got mad at each other.

Now, we ought to just write
that down right now, where we are,

the date and the time.

But I believe that.

Bill said, she never
told a no about anything.

And he was telling me,

he was telling me about the time--

and Bill, help me get this straight--

about some guys who were at the house,

and I don't know, it might have
been family, I don't remember,

but-but a number of folks there,

and the guys wanted to go somewhere,

do something that you just do.

You know, let's go, whatever it might be.

"Come on, Bill, let's go."

"Well... let me check with Shirley first."

And he asked her, and she
said something to the tune of,

"Well, you can go if you want to."

Or something to that effect.

So he came back and
said, "No, I think, guys,

I think I'd better stay here."

And somebody said,
"Well, she didn't say no."

But Bill said, just
the way his wife said it,

"Well, you can go if you want to..."

He could read between the lines.

Years of marriage works that way,

and 46 years of marriage

wonderfully worked that way for them.

And beloved, tenderly might I say,

when we got together to chat last week--

Kerry, this is just
before you came in the door.

Bill, you came in the door of my office,

and-and tears were-were
naturally running from his face,

and even before I could
speak, as Bill gave me a hug,

his first words to me were these.

In fact, I told John
Caldwell two hours ago.

Here's what I told him.

I said, Bill's first
words to me were these.

I've written them down.

"Life is good.

And God is great."

I understand the depth
of every word of that.

And that's why, beloved,
though there's some sadness,

yes, there's some tears,
there's some sorrows,

I tell you, this is a day of celebration.

For she, again, has never
been more at home in her life,

and we can have a peace even
in the midst of the storm,

even in the valley of the shadow of death,

because God is with us.

Do not be afraid.

Jesus said, I am the first and the last.

I am he who lives, who
was dead, and behold,

I am alive for evermore.

A lot of assurance.

A lot of peace.

God has given us peace.

Well, He's also prepared a place for us.

Jesus said very straightforward,

"I go to prepare a place for you.

"In my Father's house are many mansions,

"many dwelling places,
many rooms, many homes,

many mansions."

There's a room for Shirley and
a room for you, a room for me.

God has prepared a place
for those that love Him,

that follow Him, that proclaim His son.

And we were... we were
talking about that scripture

where Jesus said,

"In my Father's house are many mansions."

And it seemed that it was
maybe close to Shirley's release

that she would leave the
confines of this mortal body

in due season, that the Lord
was just about to call her home.

And so tenderly, of that scripture,

"in my Father's house
there are many mansions,"

Bill said lovingly to his
wife, "Honey, it's about time

for you to get up there and
start cleaning mine for me."

And she said, as the
family relayed it to me,

this is what she said.

"My, my, my..."

Now, I don't-- I don't
think that was an expression

that she used a whole lot.

But even in that state of,
"I'm with it, I'm with you,

I'm following you-- my, my, my."

Now, was she's saying,
"That'll be the day"?

"Clean your own mansion."

Or was she saying,

"Oh, what a joy that'll
be to be with Jesus"?

And beloved,

maybe we'll never know what
she really meant by that,

because we can't fully explain Heaven here.

But one thing about it,

God has prepared a place
for us, for his family.

And they were telling me that story,

telling me that story reminded me

of the picture hanging on the wall.

It's actually a little
plaque there in Shirley's room.

Many of you have seen it,
I saw many of you there.

Here was what it said.

"Cherish.

"Cherish your family,
for they are your treasure.

"A storehouse of riches,
wealth beyond measure."

And friends, just as we are having,

if you will, a reunion
here, the greatest reunion,

it's taking place where I have not seen,

herewith not heard, nor has
it entered into the thoughts

and the imaginations of
man what God has prepared

for those who love him.

Now, we don't know
everything about that place,

but the Bible does tell us
some things about that place.

Revelation 21:4 says,

"And God will wipe away
every tear from their eye.

"There will be no more death,
no more sorrow, no more crying.

"There shall be no more pain,

for the former things
have all passed away."

Heaven is a place of no sorrow, no crying,

no compromised bodies,

no wheelchairs,

no beds of affliction.

Unspeakable joy.

The pains of life not permitted.

The failures of life affect us no longer.

And maybe those rooms, friends,
maybe those rooms will be unique

because each and every
one of us are unique, too.

I love the way that was
printed in the obituary,

and tenderly expressed for us a moment ago,

that Shirley was full of spunk and cheer.

I'm sure that's probably understating it

just a little bit.

She was-- she was funny, and
witty, just fun to be around.

And she never...

she never lost that ability
to communicate, "I am me.

"I am here,

and I am me."

Let me close this way.

I saw on TV a few years ago
a documentary about a woman

who received a kidney
transplant from her fiancé.

Now, the odds

against that genetically
were almost impossible.

But it was a match.

And the day of surgery was scheduled.

And everything went well.

And following the
transplant, the lady was asked,

"What is the first thing
that you're going to do

when you get off of this bed
and are able to walk around?"

And here's what she said.

"I'm going to go find my fiancé,

"and I'm going to him a hug.

"And when I put my arms around him,

"I'm going to feel a scar on his back.

"And I'm going to think,
'You did that for me.'

"'That scar on your back
is what has given me life.'

"'You did that for me.'

"Oh, and I'm going to...

I'm going to thank him."

And beloved,

one day we're going to stand before God,

and for the Christian,

thank you, God, that
Shirley was a Christian.

We're going to see Jesus,

and we'll see Him smile, open
His arms, and walk our way,

and as we look into our Savior's face,

and give Him a hug like no other hug,

we will put our arms around Him,

and we will feel a scar in His side.

For He died for our sins on the cross.

And we will say, "You did that for me.

You loved me so much
that You did that for me."

"Yes.

"Because I love you.

"I created you.

"I watched over you.

"Even died for you so that
we could be together forever.

I loved you that much."

And beloved, He does.

He's prepared for us a room,

a mansion, just over the hilltop.

The lights are on, the door's open,

there's a banquet prepared.

There's family members, friends reunited,

and Jesus himself to welcome us home.

Dear ones, let not your hearts be troubled.

Hymn number 147.

Friends, I'd like
to share just a brief poem,

and I'm going to have a closing prayer.

Rest, Shirley. You deserve it well,

and listen as the angels weave their spell.

They'll teach you about Heavenly things.

But now, you have met the King of Kings.

You won't remember such things as pain,

only the smell of a summer's rain

and the sunset that settles in the west,

a home and glory where all are blessed.

Rest, Shirley, where eternities lie.

Thank you for stopping by.

We'll remember the years
and the paths you've trod

that now, my, my, my,
you're in the hands of God.

Amen.

You'll walk forever in a summer's day,

where years neither come nor slip away.

And remember we say with a tear in our eye,

we're thankful, Shirley Frick.

We are thankful, honey,
that you stopped by.
