FAT HARRY’S
Cooking Column
by Harry Coleman
The cancer Harry had been fighting claimed
his life early Tuesday morning abut 6 a.m. His
family and staff appreciate all the phone calls
and visits expressing sympathy.
There will be a memorial service held this
Sunday, October 28 at 3pm at Butner
Presbyterian Church in Butner.
For over 30 years Harry used this space to
communicate with the public and recognize
special people.
Time did not allow us to remember Harry the
way we would like to here in his column for this
week.
So in his memory we are running one of his
favorite columns about a fishing trip with his
grandson, Alex.
Originally published May 5, 2011
I think Alex was surprised that he really did catch
a fish!
It was his first time fishing and he reeled in a brim
and then another and then a third almost as fast as a
new worm could be put on the hook.
Alex likes worms.
He was only too happy to dig another worm out of
the cup of dirt we were keeping them in. He didn’t
like to put the worms on the hook.
“You do it Fat,” he told me.
He doesn’t like killing the worms.
Taking him fishing at Lake Holt in Butner was
my idea.
It was a beautiful Spring day last Sunday and the
weather made it a very nice day for a picnic.
Our family brought a chicken box and a
watermelon to one of the picnic tables for a late lunch.
I brought a couple of fishing reels that had been
stored for several years in an upstairs closet.
The old gear didn’t really work like it was supposed
to but they worked well enough that both Alex and I
could get our corks out about 10 feet into the water.
Alex caught three fish so easily that he got bored
quickly and went back to playing with his worms and
the fish he had already caught.
They most likely weren’t the biggest fish in the
lake.
His grandmother wanted him to throw his fish
back “so they could grow some more” but Alex would
have none of that. He caught ‘em and he was going to
keep ‘em.
Fat didn’t quite measure up to Alex’s record. He
caught two fish and a big oak leaf.
Alex thought is was hilarious that his granddad
had pulled that big left in expecting to have a fish on
the line.
Alex calls his grandmother Tee-tee. She’s not
exactly the outdoors type.
She was there because Fat and Tee-tee alternate
deciding what to do on the weekends and this was
Fat’s weekend.
To say that the idea of eating outside without
napkins and putting real worms on a hood did not
particularly agree with her idea of fun was an
understatement.
But even Tee-tee had to admit that she enjoyed
the afternoon.
Watching Alex’s expression when he reeled in his
first fish and enjoying the pleasant time in such a
beautiful place won her over. Also the guy in the store
at the lake was extra nice to her. He went to the back
office to come up with some plastic spoons when we
discovered that we didn’t have any for the mashed
potatoes and cole slaw.
The day provided a fun and inexpensive way to
enjoy a little family bonding time at one of the many
places that are a real asset for our community.
Alex looks for worms
The light fades after a beautiful day of fishing, picnicing and
enjoying nature and family.
The Butner-Creedmoor News was Harry’s
ife. The office was more of his home than his
wn house.
May he have an eternity of beautiful and
eaceful days like this day he shared with Alex.
Rest in Peace Harry.
You may be gone but you will not be forgotten.

recalled advice she had
been given by Taylor, and
stunned Bill with a
shocking declaration.

frustration, Kristen is now

Jennifer in return for

but damning evidence
remained hidden at the
hospital. With Hope’s
blessing, Bo accompanied
Caroline to a treatment
program in California.
EMILY OWENS, M.D.
Emily’s bad reputation
with the nurses led to her
being handed a specific
case as revenge. With a
patient’s life on the line,

secret she knows about the
chief of surgery to get a
procedure approved. To
avoid more awkwardness
with Will, Emily lied that
she’s interested in
someone else. Micah was

new making his mom’s
chemo treatments more
bearable.

ONCE UPON A TIME
Regina continued to
restrain herself from using

Margaret and Emma
discovered a survivor
from the ogre massacre,
Emma wondered
whether he was telling
the truth. In the fairytale
land that was, Regina
failed to learn the dark
arts because her past is
preventing her from
using magic for evil.

PRETTY LITTLE
LIARS
On this special
Halloween broadcast, the

holiday and leave the
trauma with Nate in the

person who could make
the Halloween party
fatally memorable.

Your Week Ahead Horoscope
Oct. 26, 2012 - Nov. 1, 2012
by Lasha Seniuk
ARIES (March 21-
April 19): Accentuate
the positive. Be willing
to try on new tasks for
size. You could be called
upon to test your skills
in a completely different
venue in the upcoming
week. Stretch your
muscles literally or
figuratively.
TAURUS (April 20-
May 20): Be a perfect
citizen. Cross your t’s
and dot your i’s and give
no one a reason to find
fault with your
performance. Hold off
on making crucial
decisions and
commitments until the
end of the week.
GEMINI (May 21-
June 20): Ferret out
the information you
need to make things run
more smoothly. Don’t be
afraid to ask for a
helping hand from a
partner. Your friends
will be looking for
lighthearted fun by the
end of the week.
CANCER (June 21-
July 22): Wait and see.
Losses can accumulate
if you spin the roulette
wheel with investments
or career in the middle
of the week. Bide your
time, as good things will
come to those who
practice patience.
LEO (July 23- Aug.
22): Make dreams come
true. The next few days
offer a perfect
atmosphere to put the
finishing touches on
your artistic or creative
endeavors. The second
half of the week may
require a sleeves-rolledup
technique.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-
Sept. 22): Step lively.
There will be so much
going on that you will
need to dance a jig, or at
least get a to-do list in
hand, to keep up. The
middle of the week
could be a very poor
time to make purchases
or investments.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-
Oct. 22): You can’t hear
it, see it or poke it with
a stick, but you have
what it takes to make

the grade. Make the best
use of your ability to blend
in as one of the gang at
the end of the week and
form new contacts.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-
Nov. 21): Heed the call of
the whimsical. A great
deal of fun can be stirred
up by using a small bit of
imagination early in the
week. Significant
relationships might need
some tender loving care;
let intuition guide you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22- Dec. 21): Make a
splash as the most
entertaining party person
during weekend
activities. Don’t start
anything of importance in
the middle of the week, as
conditions could change
in the blink of an eye.
CAPRICORN (Dec.
22- Jan. 19): Be a good
sport. Under all the
teasing and horseplay,
there may be some true
kindness
and
understanding. Your
intuitions are a bit
stronger early in the
week, so ignore words and
listen to your heart.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-
Feb. 18): If tasteful
purchases for the home
are on the agenda, you
may find small items of
enduring value in the
beginning or end of the
week. The stars are not
helpful enough for major
investments or contracts.
PISCES (Feb. 19-
March 20): Stick to the
status quo. The cosmic
traffic light is red where
new ventures are
concerned. You may have
very good ideas, but wait
until the end of the week
to put anything of
importance into action.
