Saddlebrook homeowners<br />
fight ATF firearms license<br />
By John Callarman<br />
The Saddlebrook Home<br />
Owners Association in <strong>Krum</strong> has<br />
formally contacted the Dallas office<br />
of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,<br />
Firearms and Explosives to<br />
express its opposition to granting<br />
a Type 07 Federal Firearms License<br />
that would enable Veterans<br />
Guns and Ammunition LLC to<br />
manufacture and transfer firearms<br />
from a home at 124 Thoroughbred<br />
Drive, adjacent to the <strong>Krum</strong> Early<br />
Education Center in the subdivision.<br />
A copy of a May 1 letter to<br />
Austen Z. Jansen, Dallas ATF Industry<br />
Operations Investigator on<br />
the letterhead of attorneys Henry-Oddo-Austin-Fletcher,<br />
PC of<br />
Dallas, spelling out Saddlebrook’s<br />
objection to the location of the<br />
business in the purely residential<br />
subdivision, was among several<br />
documents contained in a packet<br />
presented to the <strong>Krum</strong> City Council<br />
Monday night.<br />
Saddlebrook Home Owners<br />
Association officers Michael Yett<br />
and Andrea Bonenburger spoke to<br />
the council, seeking the city’s support<br />
in opposing an ATF license<br />
for the proposed home-based business<br />
and passed out the informational<br />
packets containing maps,<br />
photos and email correspondence<br />
between the HOA and ATF.<br />
Jansen had contacted the<br />
HOA in March, notifying the subdivision<br />
residents’ organization of<br />
the application. HOA President<br />
Tia Singer had responded with a<br />
voicemail message that “this activity<br />
is not allowed” in the subdivision,<br />
but Jansen emailed Singer<br />
that the HOA would need to provide<br />
documentation supporting<br />
its position and advising that the<br />
HOA would be represented at a<br />
hearing on the proposed license.<br />
Singer asked in a follow-up<br />
e-mail what exactly Veterans Guns<br />
and Ammunition is applying for<br />
and how the impact of the proposed<br />
business would be if it were<br />
to be licensed.<br />
“This license will allow the<br />
applicant to perform two main<br />
functions,” Jansen responded.<br />
“First, the applicant will be<br />
allowed to manufacture firearms,”<br />
he explained. “This means the applicant<br />
may manufacture firearms<br />
from raw material or assemble<br />
firearms from parts. I think it is<br />
more likely that he will only be assembling<br />
but keep in mind that the<br />
license will not restrict his activity<br />
to assembly only.<br />
“Second, the applicant will be<br />

Election for<br />
city bond<br />
issues, mayor<br />
is Saturday<br />
This Saturday, May 11 is election day, with polls open from 7<br />
a.m. to 7 p.m. in <strong>Krum</strong> at the <strong>Krum</strong> ISD Administration Building,<br />
1200 Bobcat Blvd. in <strong>Krum</strong>.<br />
This is the new administration building that opened last year,<br />
not the former site located at <strong>Krum</strong> Middle School. The current administration<br />
building can be accessed off Bobcat Blvd. from either<br />
FM 1173 or E. 6th St.<br />
On the ballot will be two candidates for mayor of the City of<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> – current mayor Terri Wilson and former mayor Larry Lamonica.<br />
Also on the ballot will be three City of <strong>Krum</strong> bond issues —<br />
$2.8 million for construction of a fire station and relocation of the<br />
public works department, $1.3 million for a new city library, and<br />
$500,000 for street improvements — plus a half-cent sales tax measure<br />
for park and recreation improvements to replace a sales tax<br />
that was unintentionally allowed to expire.<br />
BOBCATS HEAD TO AREA ROUND OF PLAYOFFS<br />
The <strong>Krum</strong> Bobcats varsity baseball team advanced to the Area round of the Texas High School playoffs as Ty Damron threw a no-hitter in the Bobcats' 11-0 victory over Celina last<br />
Thursday. Damron threw a no-hitter, striking out 17 batters and walking just one. <strong>Krum</strong> improves to 22-5 and will face the Ferris Yellowjackets in the Area round. The two opponents<br />
will square off in a best of three series beginning Friday night at 7 pm at John Paul High School in Plano. Game 2 will be played at noon Saturday and game three will follow if needed.<br />

City adds recycling to trash pick-up service<br />

residents by Progressive Waste<br />
Solutions of Texas under a fiveyear<br />
contract extension negotiated<br />
by Mayor Terri Wilson and authorized<br />
by the <strong>Krum</strong> City Council<br />
at its monthly meeting Monday<br />
night.<br />
The council also changed<br />
providers of the employee health<br />
insurance program, accepted its<br />
annual audit report, set the boundaries<br />
for the historic downtown<br />
area covered by the proposed Texas<br />
Main Street program, reappointed<br />
Gary Calmes to be <strong>Krum</strong>’s representative<br />
to the Upper Trinity Regional<br />
Water District Board, and<br />
extended the possible membership<br />
on the Park Board from inside the<br />
city limits to inside the <strong>Krum</strong> Independent<br />
School District territory.<br />
Recycling — <strong>Krum</strong> residents<br />
will be able, under guidelines to<br />
be published soon, to leave various<br />
items in a single curbside bin<br />
that the waste management firm<br />
will sort after pick-up under the<br />
contract OK’d Monday. Wilson<br />
said the new service would result<br />
in a slight increase, from $9.37 to<br />
$10.02, but Progressive executive<br />
Bob Kneis said called it a great<br />
rate.<br />
“If you did a price comparison<br />
across the community,” Kneis<br />
said, “I can honestly sit here and<br />
say you’ve got one of the best deals<br />
in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.”<br />
The deal includes roll-off<br />
pick-up for several <strong>Krum</strong> events,<br />
including North Pole Days and the<br />
city’s downtown celebration event,<br />
Christmas tree pick-up, and two<br />
annual clean-ups, one in the spring<br />
and one in the fall.<br />
“Also,” Wilson said, “they’ll<br />
allow us free landfill use once every<br />
12 months, which is in Kennedale,<br />
and then free mulch for<br />
residents annually.”<br />
On one day a year, Kneis explained,<br />
“as people take a free<br />
load of their bulky items to Kennedale,<br />
they’ll get a free load of<br />
mulch while they’re there. They<br />
can load up their trailer or pick-up<br />
truck with a load of mulch as they<br />
leave.”<br />
Progressive’s weekly curbside<br />
pick-up includes more than most<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> residents seem to realize,<br />

HEART TO HEART<br />
By Bro. Ed Gatlin,<br />
Pastor,<br />
First Baptist Church<br />
of <strong>Krum</strong><br />
THE ANCHOR<br />
Perhaps you picked up<br />
your newspaper one morning<br />
recently and read an<br />
editorial that went something<br />
like this: “The world<br />
is too big for us, too much<br />
going on, too many crimes,<br />
too much violence and excitement.<br />
Try as you will,<br />
you get behind in the race<br />
in spite of yourself. It’s an<br />
incessant strain to keep pace<br />
…and still, you lose ground.<br />
Science empties its discoveries<br />
on you so fast that<br />
you stagger beneath them<br />
in hopeless bewilderment.<br />
The political world is news<br />
seen so rapidly you’re out of<br />
breath trying to keep pace<br />
with who’s in and who’s out.<br />
Everything is high pressure.<br />
Human nature can’t endure<br />
much more.<br />
Have you read anything<br />
like that lately? When<br />
do you think that editorial<br />
was written? Was that editorial<br />
written last week or<br />
last month or last year? Believe<br />
it or not, it appeared<br />
in a newspaper called “The<br />
Atlantic Journal” on June<br />
16, 1833 – 180 years ago.<br />
The headline in the “Bos-<br />
ton Globe” on November<br />
13, 1875, read: Energy Crisis<br />
Looms – World to Go<br />
Dark.” The more things<br />
change the more they stay<br />
the same. Were the good<br />
old days all that good? Will<br />
these be the good old days to<br />
future generations?<br />
I grew up when the<br />
spread of communism was<br />
our greatest fear. Then came<br />
the stand-off known as the<br />
Cold War, the Vietnam War,<br />
the sexual revolution, riots<br />
on college campuses and<br />
worst of all young men were<br />
letting their hair grow long.<br />
Long hair, Woodstock, Nikita<br />
Krushchev surely was<br />
about to usher in the beginning<br />
of the end. But we survived.<br />
Today, we are dealing<br />
with global terrorism, Al<br />
Qaeda, Iran, North Korea,<br />
genocide, natural disasters,<br />
energy crises, economic<br />
meltdown and political<br />
chaos. When the world is<br />
spinning out of control and<br />
we don’t know what will<br />
happen next how do we respond?<br />
As Thomas Paine said<br />
in 1776, “These are the<br />
times that try men’s soul.”<br />
The soul of each of us is<br />
being tested. How will you<br />
fare? Where is your anchor?<br />
The chorus of an old<br />
hymn gives the correct response.<br />
The hymn is “The<br />
Haven of Rest.” The chorus<br />
says, “I’ve anchored my soul<br />
in the haven of rest. I’ll sail<br />
the wide seas no more: The<br />
tempest may sweep o’er the<br />
wild, stormy deep, in Jesus<br />
I’m safe evermore.”<br />

A PASTOR’S THOUGHTS<br />
By The Rev.<br />
Dr. Christy Thomas,<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> United<br />
Methodist Church<br />
ONE SIDED CONVERSATIONS<br />
I suspect many who fly<br />
frequently share one secret<br />
fear: that the use of cellphones<br />
will be permitted after<br />
take-off. Picture the scenario:<br />
stuck in a middle seat<br />
between two people who are<br />
carrying on conversations<br />
on either side of you. Both<br />
use loud voices because of<br />
ambient noise. The phone<br />
calls consume the entire<br />
flight time, other than take<br />
off and landing.<br />
Are you nuts yet?<br />
All of us have been<br />
exposed — and probably<br />
exposed others — to the<br />
discomfort of overhearing<br />
phone calls in public places.<br />
Occasionally people respond<br />
with rage to such infringements<br />
on their hearing<br />
space.<br />
Once last summer on a<br />
packed evening train coming<br />
out of London, a woman<br />
spoke at length on her<br />
phone in an otherwise silent<br />
car (Londoners are pretty<br />
darn polite people.) I admit<br />
it: after about ten minutes,<br />
I wanted to yank the phone<br />
from her hand, stomp it<br />
senseless and toss it out the<br />
window. Too many “simply<br />
splendid, ducky’s” for my<br />
peace of mind.<br />
Research suggests that<br />
being forced to listen to<br />
one-sided conversations<br />
is far more irritating than<br />
overhearing two people<br />
talking. When both sides of<br />
the dialogue are present, the<br />
brain can tune out the voices<br />
nearly completely. But disconnected<br />
one-sided words<br />
bring significantly more<br />
mental disruption to the unwilling<br />
eavesdropper.<br />
JOHNSON PROPERTIES<br />
Now, should we stop<br />
speaking into our mobile<br />
phones in public? Well, yes.<br />
We should. Or if absolutely<br />
necessary, our words should<br />
be EXTREMELY BRIEF.<br />
But that’s not the real point.<br />
I was considering these<br />
one-sided conversations —<br />
and the irritation with them<br />
— when I was pondering the<br />
difficulties in reading and<br />
understanding the Bible.<br />
The writers were not in<br />
conversation with us. They<br />
are part of of an exchange<br />
with a completely different<br />
group of people. We can’t<br />
hear or read the other side of<br />
the exchange. What makes<br />
perfect sense in the original<br />
context comes to us as fragments<br />
of dialogue where<br />
the other parties words are<br />
unintelligible, invisible. And<br />
we all hear and see these<br />
fragments differently. The<br />
interpretations that seem so<br />
right to some seem impossibly<br />
wrong to others.<br />
A couple of people from<br />
my church were recently<br />
asking about the developments<br />
of various denominations.<br />
As we discussed the<br />
varieties of Christian beliefs,<br />
we talked about the revolutionary<br />
nature of Gutenberg’s<br />
movable type printing<br />
press. Because of that invention,<br />
the Bible, not to mention<br />
other important works<br />
of literature, very suddenly<br />
became far, far more widely<br />
available.<br />
Up until that time,<br />
books were either hand-copied<br />
or laboriously printed<br />
from blocks with the letters<br />
carved out. Books and literacy<br />
were rare and the few<br />
books available extraordinarily<br />
expensive. An extensive<br />
library might have two<br />
hundred books. I have more<br />
than that waiting for me on<br />
my e-reader right now.<br />
Wider availability of<br />
books led to wider literacy.<br />
Wider literacy led to more<br />
widely shared knowledge<br />
and the breakup of intellectual<br />
monopolies. The<br />
church and other formerly<br />
authoritative institutions began<br />
to splinter.<br />
Readers formed differ-<br />

OBITUARIES<br />
DONALD ‘DANNY’<br />
LEE SMITH<br />
Funeral service for Donald<br />
“Danny” Lee Smith, 61,<br />
of <strong>Krum</strong>, Texas were held at<br />
2:00 p.m., Thursday, May 2,<br />
2013 in the Chapel of Sevier<br />
Funeral Home, Chickasha,<br />
OK.<br />
Donald ‘Danny’ Lee<br />
Smith was born June 21,<br />
1951 in Chickasha, Oklahoma<br />
the son of Wesley<br />
Lee and Alma Jean (Boggess)<br />
Smith. He died April<br />
26, 2013 in Oklahoma City,<br />
Oklahoma.<br />
Danny was born in<br />
Chickasha and they moved<br />
to Portales, New Mexico<br />
in 1956. He returned to the<br />
Chickasha area in the early<br />
1970’s. He and Debra Jean<br />
Shelton were married April<br />
5, 1975 in Pocasset, Oklahoma.<br />
They lived in Texas<br />
ing opinions on the interpretations<br />
of sacred texts.<br />
What Gutenberg began has<br />
now only increased dramatically<br />
in intensity and speed<br />
with electronic dissemination<br />
of information. We<br />
know more. We question<br />
more.<br />
This is bad if only one<br />
interpretation has validity.<br />
But what if we are simply<br />
learning that God is far bigger<br />
than a book? What if the<br />
nature of God and God’s<br />
mercy is so wide that multiple<br />
interpretations are not<br />
only possible, but also mandatory?<br />
What if we form our<br />
religious communities less<br />
around “This is what I believe<br />
and you’d better believe<br />
exactly the same or you<br />
will suffer eternal torment”<br />
and more around, “As I read<br />
the Scriptures, here is what<br />
I learn and experience. Tell<br />
me what you learn and experience.<br />
Let’s see if we can<br />
fill out each other’s understandings<br />
and know God<br />
better.”<br />
Just my hopeful<br />
thoughts in a world of religious<br />
riots and hate speech.<br />
for the last 25 years. Danny<br />
worked for the Denton<br />
County Road, Bridge and<br />
Vehicle Maintenance Department<br />
for 16 years. He<br />
was administrative foreman<br />
for the last couple of years.<br />
He was preceded in<br />
death by his father, Wesley<br />
Smith, and sister, Polly Herron.<br />
Survivors include his<br />
wife, Debbie Smith of Justin,<br />
Texas; one daughter,<br />
Cassie Wentworth and husband<br />
Scott of Justin, Texas;<br />
mother, Alma Smith<br />

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR<br />
Dear Citizens of <strong>Krum</strong>,<br />
I am writing this letter to ask you to please take time this Saturday<br />
to get out and vote. I have served on the City Council for<br />
seven years and have worked with both of the candidates. From<br />
this perspective, I am writing to you and asking you to please help<br />
me re-elect Mayor Wilson.<br />
In the last six years that Terri Wilson has served as your Mayor<br />
she has worked tirelessly and diligently looking for grants to<br />
make needed improvements to the community. She has worked<br />
with the County Commissioners and the school district. Thanks<br />
to her, we now have a turning lane on FM 1173, and this summer<br />
work will begin on a $2 million dollar grant project for sidewalks to<br />
the elementary school and the schools on FM 1173.<br />
Thanks to Mayor Wilson we have an annual city event in the<br />
fall. Last year’s event was great and was a day of free family fun. It<br />
was a joint event with the schools, local businesses, and local civic<br />
associations. Mayor Wilson is one of the most dedicated volunteers<br />
that I have ever worked with. She continues to look for ways<br />
to improve your city and your quality of life.<br />
Please look around <strong>Krum</strong>, think back to the days when FM<br />
1173 was just two lanes in front of the schools. Think back to<br />
the downtown area and how it used to look. Mayor Wilson has<br />
worked hard to improve the downtown area. There are new sidewalks,<br />
with more to come. Buildings have awnings, there are street<br />
lights. These are all improvements that the Mayor has worked to<br />
make happen.<br />
She has applied for grants for the city parks on an annual basis<br />
as they become available. Thanks to Mayor Wilson, property was<br />
donated to the City for the public library, and the new City Hall<br />
facilities. The County agreed to sell us property on FM 156 for a<br />
future fire station/public works facility. The Mayor and Council<br />
chose to put together a bond election and present it to the citizens.<br />
The City is looking for you to vote on these bond proposals and<br />
let us know if you want to move forward with a new library, fire<br />
station, or public works facility at this time.<br />
These last six years have been good years for the City, we have<br />
great working relationships with local businesses, Denton County,<br />
and the <strong>Krum</strong> ISD due to the work that Mayor Wilson has done.<br />
Please get out and vote this Saturday. Your input is extremely<br />
important and this is your opportunity to help guide <strong>Krum</strong>’s<br />
future.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Christine Rodriguez<br />

EARLY KRUM FAMILIES<br />
Thomas E. and Mary Baker<br />
Arrival in <strong>Krum</strong> around 1898<br />
1976 Article by Della Davis<br />
The Thomas E.<br />
Baker family journeyed<br />
from Tennessee<br />
to Texas in 1871,<br />
first finding a home<br />
near the present day<br />
Justin, Texas. Their<br />
son D.E. “Epp” Baker,<br />
later recalled there<br />
was only one house<br />
between their place<br />
and the village clustered<br />
around old Fort<br />
Worth. During the<br />
winter all of the cattle<br />
in the region drifted into the<br />
Trinity River bottoms, and<br />
each spring the landowners<br />
joined in a big round-upeach<br />
man sorting out his<br />
own branded herd.<br />
Pioneer Baker died in<br />
1892, and his wife, Mary,<br />
sold the family property in<br />
1898 and bought the land<br />
lately owned by Dr. W.A.<br />
Remley north of <strong>Krum</strong>.<br />
Her son “Epp” bought adjoining<br />
acreage and ran<br />
both places. At the same<br />
time, Mr. Baker was employed<br />
in town.<br />
When the Wilson Addition<br />
was opened in 1905,<br />
Mr. and Mrs. Epp Baker<br />
built one of the first homes<br />
in that section. They had<br />
two children, son Gurdo<br />
and daughter Bernys who<br />
married Orlan Shiflett and<br />
had two sons Donald and<br />
Gary Shifflett.<br />
In partnership with Jess<br />
Grubbs, Mr. Baker set up a<br />

Bernys Baker Shifflett<br />
restaurant and meat market<br />
business. Bernys remembered<br />
riding with her father<br />
in a mule-drawn wagon to<br />
Denton to haul back 300<br />
pound blocks of ice. Some<br />
of the ice was used in the<br />
restaurant and meat market<br />
and the rest was turned over<br />
to the “ice man,” who delivered<br />
it door-to-door in his<br />
little “ice wagon.”<br />
Having received a commercial<br />
education at Thorpe<br />
Springs College (later to<br />
become TCU), Mr. Baker<br />
was an expert bookkeeper.<br />
He worked for a time at the<br />
flour mill, and later joined<br />
the Knox Gin Company in<br />
that capacity. He and Mrs.<br />
Baker moved to the Rio<br />
Grande Valley in 1921.<br />

By John Callarman<br />
There are no<br />
words today<br />
of wisdom<br />
As if there ever were,<br />
in this little corner of the<br />
world.<br />
More than 60 years ago,<br />
the <strong>Krum</strong>udgeon began his<br />
song writing career. The<br />
problem with song-writing<br />
careers is that to make them<br />
pay off, you have to try to<br />
sell your songs. I’ve never<br />
tried to sell my songs. My<br />
problem has been fear of rejection.<br />
I was so afraid of rejection<br />
60-plus years ago, I<br />
wrote a song about it.<br />
It started with the first<br />
verse:<br />
Moon and June and croon<br />
and tune<br />
All sound very trite.<br />
But those four words have<br />
proved to be<br />
The songwriter’s delight.<br />
But even with that simple<br />
theme<br />
I can’t write a song<br />
That can please the publisher<br />
—<br />
A man who’s never wrong.<br />
And continued with the<br />
chorus:<br />
THE KRUMUDGEON<br />
Reject, reject, all I hear is<br />
reject<br />
I’ve written more than one<br />
good song<br />
But on each one there’s<br />
somethin’ wrong.<br />
Still I try to ring the gong.<br />
Maybe I’ll get there yet.<br />
There were several other<br />
verses, but I’ll save those<br />
for another time when I<br />
can’t think of anything important<br />
to write about.<br />
Two of my best high<br />
school buddies, Frank Leonhardy<br />
and Dave Gibney,<br />
teamed up with me to write<br />
songs, sort of, by committee.<br />
Write from your experience.<br />
Write about what you<br />
know about. Like, for example,<br />
when the three of us decided<br />
to write a sea shanty.<br />
It started, as most songs do,<br />
with the first verse:<br />
I’ve sailed many oceans,<br />
I’ve sailed all the seas.<br />
I’ve set my white sails in<br />
many a breeze.<br />
I’ve got many a girlfriend<br />
in many a spot,<br />
But I always move on<br />
when the going gets hot, with:<br />
The chorus:<br />
Sails in the wind, my face<br />
in the spray,<br />
From many a maiden of<br />
stolen astray.<br />
Sails in the wind, helm to<br />
the lee,<br />
I’ve left many a maiden<br />
a-waitin’ for me.<br />
Absolute lie, at least on<br />
my part. I was so Charlie<br />
Brown, Powdermilk Biscuit<br />
shy back then, even before<br />
there was a Charlie Brown<br />
or Powdermilk Biscuits, I<br />
had a total of one date in<br />
high school, and that was in<br />
my freshman year.<br />
I came up with a tune<br />
I slowly plucked out on a<br />
piano my parents hoped at<br />
least one of us would want<br />
to learn to play, that Frank<br />
started with these lyrics:<br />
Here’s to the girls with the<br />
dark and the flashing eyes.<br />
Here’s to the girls …<br />
And that’s about as far<br />
as he got. Dave and I didn’t<br />
get any farther.<br />
My muse, the mythical<br />
lady who usually deserted<br />
me, thought that if<br />
I scrapped “Here’s to the<br />
girls” and replaced it with<br />
the much more literate “B-bb-boom,”<br />
she’d help me proceed<br />
with lyrics that fit the<br />
tune.<br />
And so I wrote:<br />
B-b-b-boom sounds the<br />
rhythm of my heart’s beat.<br />
B-b-b-boom every time you<br />
come near.<br />
My heart seems to act in<br />
syncopation,<br />
Head whirls around in<br />
weird gyration.<br />
Can’t seem to see things too<br />
clear.<br />
Second verse:<br />
B-b-b-boom, I don’t know<br />
how I got this way.<br />
B-b-b-boom, maybe I’m<br />
too naïve.<br />
That organ I thought was<br />
so durable<br />
Now suffers something incurable.<br />
If this is love, it’s hard to<br />
believe.<br />
Chorus:<br />
And every night when I go<br />
to bed and try slumber –<br />
And every night when I go<br />
to bed and try to sleep –<br />
This heart of mine rumbles<br />
round like syncopated<br />
thunder –<br />
Bass, baritone, sousaphone<br />
with a tone so de-ee-eep.<br />
Third verse:<br />
B-b-b-boom sounds the<br />
rhythm of my heart’s beat.<br />
B-b-b-boom, isn’t this a<br />
surprise?<br />
I gotta bolster my ambition,<br />
There’s some mighty stiff<br />
competition,<br />
But I’m first in line for the<br />
prize.<br />
B-b-boom-boom.<br />
All these little ditties<br />
were composed before my<br />
18th birthday. I am surprised,<br />
every now and then,<br />
when the jukebox in my<br />
brain comes up with one of<br />
these and it actually sounds<br />
good to me. Shows what<br />
taste I have, hah!<br />
I sang a few of my<br />
songs, billing myself as a<br />
one-man a capella band,<br />
a few years ago at a <strong>Krum</strong><br />
Public Library-sponsored<br />
talent show (to which I<br />
never got invited back) and<br />
I told the audience that if<br />
two things came back, the<br />
military draft and calypso<br />
music, I might actually be<br />
able to sell this song. It was<br />
written during a holdover<br />
layover when two of my<br />
fellow draftees and I were<br />
waiting our assignments to<br />
units in Germany and we<br />
relieved our boredom with a<br />
song-writing contest:<br />
‘Bout a year ago I got a<br />
letter<br />
Wit’ such a message it did<br />
alarm me.<br />
It said, for lack of any’ting<br />
better,<br />
“Greetings, you’re going<br />
into de Army.”<br />
Dey took me to a place dey<br />
called Fort Induction.<br />
Dey stuck me wit’ needles<br />
and called me names.<br />
Bayonet training, rifle instruction<br />
–<br />
I have no time for dese silly<br />
games.<br />
Chorus:<br />
I ran away. I ran away.<br />
I told dem I wouldn’t come<br />
back no more.<br />
So now today, so now today,<br />
I’m sitting here behin’ de<br />
lock door.<br />
When I was back at home<br />
on de island<br />
I slep’ until noon and den<br />
drank de rum.<br />
All dat I did was go back<br />
to my land<br />
And hide in de cellar when<br />
de G-man come.<br />
I ran away ….<br />
Now dat I’ve been here, I<br />
kind of like it,<br />
Takin’ a club and breakin’<br />
up hard rocks.<br />
I fancy a sergeant’s face<br />
and I strike it.<br />
Dat way de sergeant gets<br />
all my hard knocks.<br />
I ran away. I ran away.<br />
How to dey say, quick like<br />
de rabbit.<br />
So now today, so now today,<br />
De crazy stockade is just<br />
like de habit.<br />
Fast forward 30 years<br />
to my time as a newspaper<br />
editor, when the temptation<br />
was strong to write a song<br />
(The temptation was<br />
strong<br />
To write a song?)<br />
About a newspaper editor’s<br />
frustrations:<br />
She wanted her picture in<br />
the paper.<br />
She’d really done something<br />
good.<br />
“I won the grocery store’s<br />
drawing,<br />
A hundred dollars worth<br />
of food.”<br />
The grocer also called that<br />
day.<br />
His temperature was rising.<br />
“You run that story of my<br />
DUI,<br />
I’ll pull my advertising.”<br />
Chorus:<br />
There are two kinds of<br />
people in this world<br />
Of this I have no doubt.<br />
One wants his name in the<br />
paper.<br />
The other wants to keep it<br />
out.<br />
When Sammy made<br />
all-conference<br />
His Mom raised quite a<br />
stink.<br />
“Here my boy’s an all-star,<br />
You don’t give him enough<br />
ink.<br />
When Sammy was arrest-<br />
ed<br />
For dealing drugs at Siwash<br />
U.<br />
His Mom was on the<br />
phone again:<br />
“If you print that we will<br />
sue.”<br />
When Arabelle was married,<br />
She wrote five pages down.<br />
Then she added another<br />
page and a half<br />
Just about her wedding<br />
gown.<br />
Well now it’s five years<br />
later<br />
And the blushing bride is<br />
back.<br />
“If my Grandma reads of<br />
my divorce,<br />
She’ll have another heart<br />
attack.”<br />
Most of what I composed<br />
and called songs were<br />
fiction … or, if you prefer,<br />
lies, but there was one I<br />
penned some years ago that<br />
told the truth about the frustration<br />
I felt when I was in<br />
what seemed to be a deadend<br />
job.<br />
I’m looking forward to<br />
looking back<br />
To when I reach the end of<br />
this one-way track<br />
Which sometimes seems to<br />
be an endless treadmill.<br />
The memories I’m making<br />
now<br />
Will make me laugh some<br />
day, some how.<br />
My heart won’t forget the<br />
pain but I know my head will.<br />
Every one faces some tests<br />
in life –<br />
Turmoil, trouble grief and<br />
strife.<br />
You push your way<br />
through and then you cut some<br />
slack.<br />
When it’s going on it’s not<br />
much fun<br />
But it’s satisfying when<br />
you’re done.<br />
That’s why I’m looking<br />
forward to looking back.<br />
Pain? What’s that? I’m<br />
laughing all the way.<br />

Thursday.<br />
Damron threw a no-hitter,<br />
striking out 17 batters<br />
and walking just one.<br />
Catcher Josh Reeves helped<br />
preserve the no-hitter as he<br />
made a tremendous play on<br />
a Celina drag bunt attempt.<br />
The Bobcats blew out<br />
Celina thanks to 15 hits, including<br />
two extra base hits.<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> scored four runs in<br />
the sixth on an RBI single by<br />
Brennan Ellis, an RBI single<br />
by Josh Reeves, and a tworun<br />
single by Damron.<br />
Colten Lucas racked up<br />
two RBIs on three hits for<br />
Bobcats. He singled in the<br />
second and fourth innings<br />
and tripled in the fifth inning.<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> never trailed after<br />
scoring one run in the first<br />
on an error. The Bobcats got<br />
four-run rallies in the fourth<br />
inning and the sixth. In the<br />
fourth, Bobcats scored on an<br />
RBI single by Zack Hughes,<br />
plating Riley Marshall.<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> tacked on another<br />
two runs in the fifth,<br />
chasing Celina starter Tanner<br />
Davis. A triple by Colten<br />
Lucas ignited the offense,<br />
scoring Michael Tanttari.<br />
That was followed up by<br />
Jack Patton's single, bringing<br />
home Colten Lucas.<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> improves to 22-5<br />
and will face the Ferris<br />
Yellowjackets in the Area<br />
round. The two opponents<br />
will square off in a best of<br />
three series beginning Friday<br />
night at 7 pm at John<br />
Paul High School in Plano.<br />
Game 2 will be played at<br />
noon Saturday and game<br />
three will follow if needed.<br />
"We had a tremendous<br />
night at the plate," said head<br />
coach Ray Miller of the<br />
'Cats' 15 hit performance.<br />
"Damron had great stuff<br />
on the mound. Ferris is the<br />
quickest team we've played<br />
all season. We know that<br />
we will have to have another<br />
great team performance to<br />
move on in the playoffs."<br />

Saddlebrook homeowners<br />
fight ATF firearms license<br />
(Continued from pg. 1)<br />
able to deal in firearms,”<br />
Jansen continued. “This<br />
means a couple of things.<br />
The applicant will receive<br />
firearms on the premises<br />
(either from customers or a<br />
delivery from a commercial<br />
carrier). More importantly,<br />
the applicant will be able to<br />
have customers come to the<br />
124 Throughbred location<br />
to complete firearm transfer<br />
paperwork and have the customers<br />
take possession of<br />
firearms (essentially a retail<br />
sale.)”<br />
The only other place<br />
firearms made at 124 Thoroughbred<br />
could be sold<br />
would be at a gun show, but<br />
the applicant cannot restrict<br />
sales to gun shows only, Jansen<br />
explained.<br />
The packet the subdivision<br />
provided the council indicated<br />
a similar operation<br />
is planned at another home<br />
in the subdivision.<br />
“Our subdivision can<br />
hardly handle the traffic<br />
from the school, let alone<br />
two businesses of this nature,”<br />
Bonenburger told the<br />
council. “There’s no way<br />
to control the flow. There’s<br />
no way to slow down how<br />
many sales if there’s a huge<br />
gun show in Denton, Dallas,<br />
somewhere else, and if<br />
you solicit on line for business.”<br />
Bonenburger also expressed<br />
her concern about<br />
the effect gun sale traffic<br />
might have with the proposed<br />
site on the school bus<br />
route into and out of the<br />
EEC campus.<br />
“Now, say someone is<br />
moving these firearms in<br />
and out, that’s the first thing<br />
our children are going to see<br />
when they come into school<br />
for the day,” Bonenburger<br />
said, “and that is the last<br />
thing they are going to see<br />
when they leave the school<br />
in the afternoon before they<br />
go home. “<br />
Yett expressed what the<br />
Saddlebrook residents want<br />
the council to do.<br />
“We as board members,<br />
representing the community<br />
of Saddlebrook, ask you<br />
to stand and support us by<br />
whatever means within your<br />
powers to deter these businesses<br />
from operating within<br />
our residential communities,”<br />
he said.<br />
Under citizens agenda<br />
rules, the council was unable<br />
to discuss or take action<br />
on the residents’ request because<br />
the item was not on<br />
the council agenda.<br />
A copy of an application<br />
for a Type 07 Federal<br />
Firearms License found<br />
on the Internet shows that<br />
Federal Firearms Licenses<br />
are available “in accordance<br />
with the provisions of Title<br />
1, Gun Control Act of 1968,<br />
and the regulations issued<br />
thereunder (27 CFR Part<br />
478).<br />
Correspondence from<br />
Jansen to the HOA notes<br />
that in order to qualify for<br />
a license, the applicant must<br />
have a business premises as<br />
defined by 27 CFR 478.11,<br />
in which the definition of<br />
Business Premises is “The<br />
property on which the manufacturing<br />
or importing of<br />
firearms or ammunition or<br />
the dealing in firearms is or<br />
will be conducted. A private<br />
dwelling, no part of which<br />
is open to the public, shall<br />
not be recognized as coming<br />
within the meaning of the<br />
term.”<br />
The attorney’s May<br />
1 electronic mail message<br />
to Jansen notes that the<br />
property owner is bound<br />
to the HOA’s Declaration<br />
of Covenants, Conditions<br />
and Restrictions, which include<br />
a section that states<br />
“no noxious or offensive activity<br />
shall be carried on or<br />
upon the properties or any<br />
part thereof, nor shall anything<br />
be done or maintained<br />
thereon which may disturb<br />
the neighborhood or occupants<br />
of adjoining property<br />
… The Board of Directors<br />
shall have exclusive authority<br />
to determine, in its sole<br />
discretion, which may constitute<br />
a nuisance or offensive<br />
activity.”<br />
FAMILY<br />
ALLERGY &<br />
ASTHMA<br />
CARE<br />
“Based on the projected<br />
use of the property as a<br />
commercial business property,”<br />
the attorneys’ letter to<br />
ATF says, “the Association<br />
has determined that the proposed<br />
use would constitute<br />
a noxious or offensive activity<br />
that is likely to disturb<br />
the neighborhood or occupants<br />
of adjoining property<br />
and detract from its value<br />
as an attractive residential<br />
community. Unlike music<br />
lessons, tutoring or traditional<br />
home-based business<br />
activities, the manufacture<br />
of firearms and the retail<br />
sale of firearms in a residential<br />
community is likely to<br />
cause unreasonable disturbance<br />
and apprehension to<br />
both adjacent neighbors and<br />
other owners in the Saddlebrook<br />
Community.”<br />
The attorneys’ letter<br />
also quotes <strong>Krum</strong>’s Home<br />
Occupation Ordinance that<br />
“a home occupation is an<br />
occupation carried on in the<br />
home by a member of the<br />
occupant’s family, without<br />
the employment of additional<br />
persons, without the<br />
use of a sign to advertise the<br />
occupation, without offering<br />
any commodity for sale<br />
on the premises and which<br />
does not create obnoxious<br />
noise or other obnoxious<br />
conditions to abutting residential<br />
property such as<br />
emission of odor, increased<br />
traffic or generation of light<br />
or smoke, and where the use<br />
is carried on in the main<br />
structure only.”<br />
An Internet website specializing<br />
in assisting individuals<br />
to obtain Federal Firearms<br />
Licenses reports more<br />
than 40,000 FFLs have been<br />
issued in all 50 states.<br />
The ATF website lists<br />

holders with <strong>Krum</strong><br />

Kneis pointed out.<br />
“We’ve always taken<br />
everything at the curb,” he<br />
said. “A lot of people weren’t<br />
aware of that, I guess, and<br />
as your community grows,<br />
[new residents] don’t realize<br />
how much service they<br />
have.”<br />

For the second year in a row,<br />
the city changed providers<br />
for its employee health insurance<br />
program, replacing<br />
Blue Cross Blue Shield with<br />
Aetna. The city’s insurance<br />
advisor, Rodney Dryden of<br />
Wellspring Insurance Agency,<br />
said the Aetna premiums<br />
would cost the city $10 per<br />
employee per month more<br />
than the current contract<br />
that expires May 31, but<br />
retaining Blue Cross Blue<br />
Shield would have meant an<br />
increase of $120 per employee<br />
per month, a 30-percent<br />
premium hike.<br />
Dryden told the council<br />
he would be back later this<br />
year when specific information<br />
on the federal health<br />
care program would kick in.<br />
“Plans are going to<br />
change dramatically,” he<br />
said. “I will tell you that<br />
your new plan does take into<br />
account some of the new<br />
fees that are part of health<br />
care reform — the health insurer<br />
fees, the reinsurer fees,<br />
the comparability fees — all<br />
these different fees and taxes<br />
that are a part of health care<br />
reform that total 6½ percent<br />
increase on our plan.”<br />
Audit report — “Once<br />
again, you have an unqualified<br />
opinion,” Woody<br />
Mathews of the Auldridge<br />
Griffen accounting firm reported,<br />
“which means that<br />
we didn’t find anything that<br />
we have any issues on. You<br />
have a good fund balance<br />
in here in both your general<br />
fund and your water and<br />
sewer fund.”<br />
He credited Finance<br />
Director Chris Speights for<br />
doing a “great job” with the<br />
city’s books.<br />
“She came in, into a less<br />
than opportune situation, I<br />
think, from where the books<br />
were when she got here,”<br />
Mathews said. “You had a<br />
little changeover in personnel<br />
in kind of midstream.”<br />
He did advise the council<br />
to be sure, in the budgeting<br />
process, that expendi-<br />
tures from the fund balance<br />
are covered in a budget line<br />
item.<br />
Mathews said he would<br />
return to <strong>Krum</strong> in the next<br />
couple of weeks to do a midyear<br />
review to get a head start<br />
on the budget for the next fiscal<br />
year. He said it was something<br />
that he had wanted to<br />
do last year, but “it just didn’t<br />
happen because of the personnel<br />
changes.”<br />
Texas Main Street —<br />
With the notice of the city’s<br />
intent to file an application to<br />
become a Texas Main Street<br />
City due in Austin May 18,<br />
the council needed to establish<br />
the boundaries of the<br />
proposed historic downtown<br />
area. Councilmembers<br />
agreed to establish the territory<br />
proposed by the <strong>Krum</strong><br />
Economic Development<br />
Corp. board at a meeting<br />
held Monday prior to the<br />
council meeting, covering<br />
a block north and a block<br />
south of McCart Street between<br />
West Third Street and<br />
East Sixth Street.<br />
The formal application<br />
for Texas Main Street designation<br />
is due in Austin on<br />
July 31. If the application<br />
is approved at a quarterly<br />
meeting of the Texas Historical<br />
Commission on October<br />
22-23, the city will be<br />
required to establish a board<br />
of directors and hire a Main<br />
Street program manager in<br />
time to undergo Main Street<br />
program training in January.<br />
The city would be required<br />
to maintain the program for<br />
a minimum of three years.<br />
Upper Trinity Appointment<br />
— Calmes, who<br />
has been <strong>Krum</strong>’s appointee<br />
to the Upper Trinity Board<br />
for the past four years, was<br />
re-appointed on a 3-1vote,<br />
with Councilmembers Bert<br />
Witherspoon, Joe Beall and<br />
Michael Wilkes voting yes<br />
and Christine Rodriguez voting<br />
no.<br />
During Citizens Agenda,<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> resident Elaine<br />
Herzog, who serves the City<br />
of Corinth as public works<br />
business manager, spoke in<br />
favor of a resolution from the<br />
City of Corinth urging the<br />
Upper Trinity Board to consider<br />
plans for the construction<br />
of the proposed Lake<br />
Ralph Hall carefully, questioning<br />
Calmes’ vote at the<br />
last board meeting against<br />
purchasing land for the lake.<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> resident Justin<br />
Diviney, an employee of the<br />
city of Denton’s Waste Water<br />
Department, spoke during<br />
Citizens Agenda, urging the<br />
council to reappoint Calmes.<br />
Calmes was recently<br />
elected secretary of the Upper<br />
Trinity Board, of which<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> City Attorney Lance<br />
Vanzant, Celina’s representative<br />
to Upper Trinity, is vice<br />
president.<br />
As the council discussed<br />
the appointment, Rodriguez,<br />
who serves as financial services<br />
manager for the city of<br />
Corinth, had several questions<br />
for Calmes about Upper<br />
Trinity’s land purchases.<br />
Calmes explained that<br />
the 10-year-old application<br />
for a permit to build Lake<br />
Ralph Hall may be approved<br />
in September or October.<br />
“Our hands are tied right<br />
now until we know one way<br />
or another about the permit,”<br />
he said. “What we don’t<br />
want to do is jeopardize that<br />
permit.”<br />
But getting the permit<br />
doesn’t mean the lake would<br />
be built soon. Many variables<br />
exist, including the possibility<br />
of selling the permit to the<br />
City of Dallas with Dallas<br />
building the lake.<br />
There had been some<br />
conversation about appointing<br />
a <strong>Krum</strong> city staff member<br />
to the board.<br />
After Councilmember<br />
Witherspoon moved that<br />
Calmes be reappointed,<br />
Mayor Wilson asked Public<br />
Works Director Adam Farguson<br />
about that possibility.<br />
“A member of the staff<br />
can also be appointed to<br />
that Board of Directors,”<br />
Farguson said. “There are<br />
city managers, public works<br />
directors on that Board of<br />
board.”<br />
Wilson asked Calmes<br />
how many cities have staff<br />
members on the Upper Trinity<br />
board.<br />
Calmes estimated that<br />
25 percent of the 25 cities<br />
appoint staff members to the<br />
board.<br />
“I really don’t think this<br />
line of questioning is fair to<br />
Mr. Calmes,” Witherspoon<br />
said. “He’s served very well<br />
—“<br />
“Oh, I think he’s done a<br />
great job,” Wilson said. “We<br />
talked, and he knows that.”<br />
“I also think our city staff<br />
has enough on their plates<br />
that they probably don’t need<br />
any more board of director<br />
appointments outside the<br />
city,” Witherspoon said. “I<br />
think we should maintain the<br />
continuity of what we had.”<br />
“We spoke about how<br />
that the city needs to be more<br />
informed on the decisions being<br />
made prior to the voting,”<br />
Wilson said of her discussion<br />
with Calmes. “And he<br />
understands that. I just want<br />
to make sure that before we<br />
vote that we’re making the<br />
best decisions for the city.”<br />
Rodriguez added another<br />
concern — that Calmes no<br />
longer lives within the city<br />
limits, though he still owns<br />
property in <strong>Krum</strong>.<br />
“Do we have a staff<br />
member that lives within the<br />
city limits?” Witherspoon<br />
asked.<br />
“They’re working for us<br />
so they have our best interest,”<br />
Rodriguez replied.<br />
“I need space,” Calmes<br />
explained his move. “I want<br />
my kids to have a place to<br />
run. My kids go to school<br />
here, we shop here, this is our<br />
home and we will be a part<br />
of the community. To be a<br />
member of Upper Trinity<br />
you just have to live within<br />
the county.”<br />
Park Board change<br />
— An ordinance to extend<br />
the territory of eligible Park<br />
Board membership came<br />
at the request of the Park<br />
Board, Farguson reported to<br />
the council. “The thought<br />
process was a lot of the people<br />
that live right outside of<br />
town, the best interest is here,<br />
too. Their kids may play<br />
through KYSA [<strong>Krum</strong> Youth<br />
Sports Association], they use<br />
the parks, they do shop here.<br />
This is their home. Being that<br />
it is an advisory board, it was<br />
the thought of the board that<br />
they could get more members<br />
to come in that way.”<br />
Farguson added that a<br />
person living outside the city<br />
Enjoy<br />
more<br />
limits had volunteered to<br />
serve on the board.<br />
“Is it difficult to get<br />
people to volunteer for that<br />
board?” Witherspoon asked.<br />
“They have had some<br />
turnover in the board here<br />
recently,” Farguson responded.<br />
“They try every single<br />
FISH DAY<br />
Now Is The Time For Stocking<br />
meeting to come up with<br />
new ways and ideas trying to<br />
get board members. It is not<br />
as easy as they would like it<br />
to be and they think this is a<br />
way to open it up a bit.”<br />
The ordinance was adopted<br />
on a 3-1 vote, Witherspoon<br />
voting no.<br />

<strong>Krum</strong> couple reunites<br />
with old neighbors<br />
ABOVE –<br />
Hulda Quebe, left, and her sister, Grace, right, meet up with Wheeler and Babe Sebastian<br />
in the lobby of the Greenville Municipal Auditorium to share memories of their<br />
time in <strong>Krum</strong> prior to the Quebe Sisters Band’s performance on May 2.<br />
By John Callarman<br />
Back in the late 1990s,<br />
westside <strong>Krum</strong> residents<br />
Wheeler and Babe Sebastian<br />
enjoyed the music as<br />
three young home-schooled<br />
sisters practiced their violin<br />
lessons from the porch<br />
of their home a few doors<br />
down from the Sebastians’<br />
home.<br />
The couple, and their<br />
dog, Brigham, became acquainted<br />
with the young<br />
ladies who began their musical<br />
lessons at their home<br />
in <strong>Krum</strong> at ages 7, 10 and<br />
12. Violins turned into fiddles<br />
when the sisters discovered<br />
the sound of western<br />
swing music, as recorded<br />
by Bob Wills and the Texas<br />
Playboys and kept alive<br />
by groups like Asleep at the<br />
Wheel … and by musical<br />
performances on the University<br />
of North Texas campus<br />
in Denton.<br />
The Sebastians recalled,<br />
too, how Grace, Sophia<br />
and Hulda lined up every<br />
Sunday morning with their<br />
mother to walk to church.<br />
The kids seemed to enjoy<br />
their friendship with the<br />
neighbor couple, even visiting<br />
with Wheeler Sebastian<br />
at his shop, but a couple of<br />
years later, about the turn<br />
of the century, they moved<br />
from <strong>Krum</strong> to Fort Worth,<br />
where their fiddle teacher<br />
lived.<br />
While national network<br />
television and FM radio<br />
treat such musical genre<br />
as western swing, classic<br />
country and even bluegrass<br />
music, not to mention big<br />
bands, ballads and Broadway<br />
on the pop side of music,<br />
with disdain, not all the<br />
fans of those styles of music<br />
are the Sebastians’ age.<br />
Venues like the Grand<br />
Ole Opry and NPR’s Prairie<br />
Home Companion champion<br />
new artists performing<br />
old music, and stars like<br />
Ricky Skaggs, Merle Haggard<br />
and Larry Gatlin encourage<br />
younger artists to<br />
play and sing vintage music.<br />
What is unique about<br />
the Quebe Sisters, Grace,<br />
Sophia and Hulda, is that<br />
they not only learned how<br />
to play their fiddles in tight,<br />
speedy, Western swing style<br />
harmony, they learned to<br />
sing three-part harmony just<br />
as tight and just as sweet as<br />
some of the stars from the<br />
’30s, ’40s and ’50s. They<br />
found their instrumental<br />
and vocal harmonies welcome<br />
in wider venues than<br />
the Opry, the Ernest Tubb<br />
Midnight Show and the National<br />
Folk Festival; they’ve<br />
also performed at the Kennedy<br />
Center in Washington,<br />

<strong>Krum</strong> resident Babe Sebastian reminisces with Sophia<br />
Quebe as Quebe Sisters Band fans line up to buy CDs and<br />
collect autographs in Greenville after the girls, who grew<br />
up in <strong>Krum</strong>, played and sang in a warm-up show prior to<br />
Ricky Skaggs’ performance.<br />
the Lincoln Center in New<br />
York, and in late March<br />
with the Dallas Symphony<br />
Orchestra on the Myerson<br />
Symphony Center stage.<br />
DSO conductor Jeff<br />
Tyzik summed up the Quebe<br />
Sisters by suggesting the<br />
audience think of them as<br />
a merger between the Andrews<br />
Sisters and the Bob<br />
Wills band.<br />
The symphony center<br />
performance came on the<br />
heels of a month-long musical<br />
tour of Russia.<br />
Last week, another<br />
couple from <strong>Krum</strong> invited<br />
Wheeler and Babe Sebastian<br />
to join them and a family<br />
visitor from Shanghai in<br />
Greenville where the Quebe<br />
Sisters Band performed the<br />
45-minute warm-up show<br />
for Ricky Skaggs’ two hour<br />
bluegrass blast.<br />
As the quintet walked<br />
into the lobby of the Greenville<br />
Municipal Auditorium,<br />
they spotted Hulda and<br />
Grace Quebe in the lobby.<br />
“I’ve brought some old<br />
neighbors from <strong>Krum</strong>,” one<br />
of the five told Grace Quebe.<br />
She turned, saw Wheeler<br />
first, and excitedly cried<br />
out, “Mr. Sebastian!” There<br />
wasn’t much time to renew<br />
memories but, somehow,<br />
Brigham’s name came up in<br />
the conversation.<br />
The sisters sang and<br />
played, reminisced on stage<br />
about how Ricky Skaggs<br />
had helped launch their career<br />
when he heard them<br />
sing.<br />
At intermission, as the<br />
Quebes’ fans lined up in<br />
the lobby to buy CDs and<br />
collect autographs, Sophia<br />
joined her sisters in reliving<br />
memories of growing up in<br />
<strong>Krum</strong> alongside their old<br />
neighbors.<br />
It was hard to tell which<br />
family was more thrilled by<br />
the encounter.<br />
The Quebes’ next appearances<br />
in North Texas<br />
will be July 4 at Willie Nelson’s<br />
Fourth of July picnic<br />
in Fort Worth and July 6 for<br />
a free outdoor concert at the<br />
Levitt Pavilion for the Performing<br />
Arts in Arlington.<br />
Between now and then, the<br />
band will perform in Culpeper,<br />
Leesburg and Mouth<br />
of Wilson, Va., and in Livermore,<br />
Calif.<br />

The three Quebe sisters, Grace, Hulda and Sophia, were excited to visit with their neighbor,<br />
Wheeler Sebastian, at the Greenville Municipal Auditorium May 2.<br />
