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 />

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 />

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

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

(Continued from pg. 1)<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 />

AT LEFT –<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 />
