Interim athletic director hired 

By Michael Williamson 

Staff Writer 

Madison-Plains Local Schools has a new 

interim athletic director. 

In a 3-1 vote on Feb. 19, the district 

school board approved the hiring of David 

Brandon Wright to the interim position. 

Wright, an assistant athletic director in Circleville, 

will officially begin his 68-day contract 

on March 1. 

Board member Cory Coburn cast the single 

vote against the measure. (Board member 

Kelly Cooley was absent from the 

meeting.) Coburn cited a lack of conversation 

about the responsibilities of the position 

and of the future full-time director. 

“I look at this position as a potential cost 

savings, and it challenges (the board) to get 

creative with the position,” Coburn said. “I 

have a hard time supporting the hiring of an 

interim director for, essentially, three 

months, without us having that conversa-

“We have a lot of empty storefronts I 

want to see filled. I’d like to see our downtown 

area improve,” he said. 

As for what he brings to the council table, 

Bennett said, “Good common sense.” 

Hix is a 29-year resident of Mount Sterling. 

He retired six year ago as a machinist 

at Armaly Brands in London following a 43- 

year career with the company. He and his

tion.” 

Coburn added that the district has not had an athletic director 

for the last two months and he hoped to have research ahead of the 

Feb. 19 meeting on “creative” ways to better utilize the position beyond 

athletics. 

Superintendent Chad Eisler said there was a “tremendous 

amount of work to be done,” including wrapping up the 2018 athletic 

year and securing schedules for the upcoming spring and fall. 

“We agreed to hire this position and then do the research,” Eisler 

said. “Going without an athletic director, in my strong opinion, is 

not an option.” 

Eisler agreed to regularly update the board on his research into 

how other districts structure their athletic director positions. 

Also at the meeting, the district spotlighted several student 

achievements, including the efforts of district and county spelling 

bee participants and the Quick Recall team. Fourth-grade spellers 

Chevy Jewell and Brooklyn Fraley were named champion and runner-up, 

respectively. Sixth-grader spellers Addison Hawkins and 

Matthew Harris were named champion and runner-up, respectively. 

The next regular school board meeting will be held at 7 p.m. 

March 19.

London. 

“I plan to stay living here for a long time, so I want to see the 

village improve and get better,” Hix said of his decision to apply for 

one of the vacant council seats. 

He said he’d like to see a grocery store back in town, adding that 

it would help to attract more residents. 

Bennett and Hix will serve out the remainder of the unexpired 

terms, as will the third appointee. All of the seats that were vacated 

expire on Dec. 31, 2021. 

About the initial pool of applicants, council member Becky Martin 

said she was impressed with the amount of interest. As for what 

stood out about Bennett and Hix, she said, “Their demeanor, levelheadedness 

and sense of pride in the community.” 

MURDER 

Continued from page 1 

take a stash of marijuana and cash from the roommates at gunpoint. 

In the ensuing melée, all four men were shot, with one bullet 

striking and passing through Jackson before striking and fatally 

injuring Coffey. 

Jackson claimed self-defense as his defense against the charges, 

as it was Edmond who fired first and that he was defending himself 

from Benson. 

Jackson had previously told authorities that he had been shot 

by an unknown assailant while in Springfield. 

Evidence showed that Benson had been lying on his back at the 

time that he was shot, with his assailant on top, and that his body 

bore two muzzle burns on the chest, indicating firing at extremely 

close range. The bullet, recovered after Benson’s body was removed 

from the scene, was buried approximately 9 inches into the ground. 

A magnum .357 revolver matching the bullet used to kill Benson 

was found at the fence line of the apartment complex. The DNA in 

blood samples taken from the fence and the revolver matched Jackson’s 

DNA. 

After the gun battle, Jackson drove himself to Springfield Regional 

Medical Center for treatment before being transferred to a 

hospital in Dayton. Edmond, who was not charged in the incident, 

was driven to Madison Health by a neighbor. Coffey was transported 

to Grant Medical Center in Columbus where he later succumbed 

from his injuries. Benson died at the scene, on the ground 

outside of the apartment. 

On Feb. 15, a tearful Jackson looked to the audience and said, “I 

love you, Mom,” before being escorted out of the courtroom. 

Sentencing is scheduled for 9 a.m. March 8.

Mt. Sterling posts administrator job 

NOTICE TO 

MOBILE HOME TAXPAYERS 



Mount Sterling village council took up several pieces of legislation 

on Feb. 25 that were left in limbo at the previous meeting before 

which three council members resigned. 

At the start of the Feb. 25 meeting, two new council members, 

Michael Bennett and Craig Hix, were installed. The six-person 

council needs at least four members present to read and act on legislation. 

Bennett and Hix bring council’s numbers to five. 

Village administrator position 

Council voted 5-0 to post the job opening for a village administrator. 

The village has been without an administrator for more than 

a year. Courtney Bricker, fiscal officer and council clerk, has been 

handling many of the duties. 

Mayor Billy Martin said the Ohio State Auditor’s Office, which 

is overseeing the village’s finances, has urged the village to hire an 

administrator and to do so soon. The job comes with an annual 

salary of $63,000. New to the job description is the requirement that 

applicants have waste water and water operating licenses. 

The administrator’s duties are to oversee the village and its employees. 

The person who fills the position will manage public utilities, 

supervise street and sidewalk maintenance, manage finances 

appropriated by council, prepare budgets, appoint and evaluate village 

employees, seek grant funding, supervise zoning and building 

requests, and handle bids and contracts for repairs, services and 

equipment, among other duties. 

Public records requests 

The village now has a policy that outlines how a person can request 

public records and how the village will fulfill those requests. 

In the last month, a person made a large public records request, 

and Bricker discovered the village did not have a policy in place. 

Council member Becky Martin said a committee researched the 

public records policies of other cities and villages and modeled 

Mount Sterling’s new policy after Grove City’s. 

The new policy, which council passed 5-0, defines public records, 

lists what kind of records can be released, outlines the hours public 

records are available and the cost for copies and mailing, and explains 

how a person can make a public records request. 

A person requesting public records is not legally required to fill 

out a form, identify himself or herself, or provide the purpose for 

the request. The village does have a public records request form, 

though. A person making a request can choose to fill out the form, 

listing the records they want to see, which would, according to the 

policy, “allow the village to efficiently retrieve the records.” 

The policy requires the village to provide prompt response to requests 

and provide copies, if requested, “in a reasonable period of time.” If 

records cannot be provided while the person requesting them waits, the 

village will contact the person when the records are available. 

The records are available to view during regular business hours, 

weekdays 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Copies on 8.5x11-inch paper are 15 cents 

per page. If copies are mailed, the person making the request will 

be subject to the cost of postage and mailing materials. 

Requests can be made in person at village hall or by phone, mail 

or fax. Requests or questions can be directed to the council clerk at 

(740) 869-2040. 

Rules of council 

Council is considering two changes to the village’s rules of council, 

the guidelines that set council’s procedures. 

Currently, any member of the public who wants to address council 

must submit a public participation form by noon on Friday before 

council’s Monday night meeting. The proposed change would allow 

people to submit the form up until the time the meeting starts. The 

form would go to the mayor. Anyone who wants to give a formal 

presentation before council would still have to notify the council 

clerk by noon on Thursday prior to council’s Monday night meeting. 

The second change involves the delivery of information packets, 

containing agendas and legislation, to council members prior to 

meetings. Currently, they are delivered to council members’ doors. 

If the rules are changed, the packets would be sent to council members 

by email. Any council member who wanted a hard copy would 

have to request it from the council clerk then pick it up at his or 

her mailbox at town hall. 

The changes will be up for a second reading at council’s next regular 

meeting, set for 7 p.m. Feb. 25. 

Additional business and discussion 

In other action, council members: 

• authorized the hiring of Cody Lindsey to run the water plant. 

Lindsey has the required licensing to operate the plant and will be 

a full-time employee. Tyler Curtis, the former water plant operator 

who has been helping out part-time while the village looked for a 

replacement, will stay on for a period of time to train Lindsey. Lindsey’s 

pay rate is $17 per hour. 

• considered changing Jack Dill’s status from a contracted service 

provider to a village employee. Dill works 

part-time as the village’s parks and recreation 

director. Bricker said Dill will not need 

the village’s health insurance, should the 

change be made. The legislation passed 4-1 

on the first reading, with Lowell Anderson 

casting the “no” vote. It will be up for a second 

reading at council’s next meeting. 

• approved naming the alley between 

Memorial Park and 17 E. Main St. as Timmons 

Way. A dedication is being planned 

for Memorial Day weekend, according to 

David Timmons, council president pro 

temp. 

Mayor Martin commented that someone 

has been using his name, identity and 

phone number to make comments about village 

business on social media. 

“It is simply not me. It is someone who 

holds a grudge...against me because of the 

seat that I sit in,” he said. “If I have a comment 

to make, it will be on the village web 

page.” 

Photography exhibit opens this week 

The London Visual Arts Guild will host an exhibition, 

““Photography on Deck and Beyond,” Feb. 28-March 31 at

opinions 


Getting technical sets kids up for work success 

Individuals can disagree on many topics, but there is one topic 

that keeps coming up in our school districts that we must all work 

to improve. How do we 

prepare students to be 

successful at work? As 

parents and educators, 

we dream that our kids 

will be more successful 

open forum 

Emmy Beeson 

than our generation. We often hear about preparing our kids to be 

college- and career-ready. What does that mean? 

CNBC reported in 2017 that only 54.8 students complete a college 

degree in six years. Six years! Over the last decade, it has become 

clear that many students are starting programs with lack of 

direction. Regardless of whether a student completes his or her program, 

once a student fails to continue enrollment in a post-secondary 

program, the student loan bills start showing up. Lack of 

direction and debt: That is what many of our young people are facing 

because we have lived through a generation that has declared, 

“The only way to be successful as an adult is to go to college.” 

How do we prepare students to make good choices that lead to 

being a successful adult? How do we teach them to follow their passion? 

Many students blindly enroll in a post-secondary program because 

they believe that is the path for everyone. For years, we have 

engrained into the heads of almost every student and parent that a 

bachelor’s degree is the new high school diploma. Many of us have 

thought that the college experience is one that every student should 

have. The rising cost of tuition and room and board forces us to step 

back and question if this is a truth. With the increasing skills gap 

related to high demand career fields such as construction and manufacturing, 

we have to ask, “Is a four-year degree the only way or 

is it one of the ways?” Employers are repeatedly sharing that the 

philosophy of college for all is highly problematic for the economy. 

We speak with local business and industry partners daily that 

tell us they do not have enough skilled workers to keep up with the 

needs of our economy. Unfortunately, if we do not fill these positions, 

many companies may face the severe consequence of shutting 

down or moving the business to a place where they can fill their 

openings. At this point, you may think these positions are low paying 

positions. Why wouldn’t individuals be flocking to high paying, 

stable jobs? The answer to this dilemma is both lack of skill training 

and misconceptions about the career fields. 

This is where Tolles Career & Technical Center takes center 

stage. Career technical education provides a viable pathway for students 

toward good-paying careers. An increasing number of students 

are already taking advantage of that opening, but we must 

also change attitudes about career technical education and many 

skilled trade professions. 

For students questioning if a traditional college is right for them, 

career technical education offers a foundation for a variety of occupations 

that won’t require years of college and the debt that comes

Paternity in Ohio: Who’s the dad? 

When a child is born in Ohio, a 

mother may give her baby any 

name she chooses but certain laws 

must be followed when adding the 

father’s information to the birth 

certificate. If the mother was married at the time of 

birth or at any time during the 300 days before the 

birth, the husband is considered the legal father of the 

child and his name is listed on the birth certificate. 

When parents are not married, the child will not 

have a legal father listed on the birth certificate unless 

both parents have their information and notarized signatures 

completed on the “Acknowledgement of Paternity” 

affidavit. The affidavit can be used to add a father 

to a child’s birth certificate, as well as change the last 

name of the child up until the child reaches the age of 

23. The affidavit may be signed and notarized at the 

hospital when the child is born; the father’s name will 

be added immediately to the child’s birth certificate. 

If the parents were not able to sign the affidavit at 

the hospital, the affidavit may be signed and notarized 

by any notary. The form is available at Madison County 

Public Health where staff members can also notarize 

signatures. The affidavit does not have to be signed by 

the parents at the same time. If the father is out of 

state, the mother can have her signature notarized on

child, but the hospital or health department is not allowed 

to put the biological father’s name on the certificate 

unless the mother has a divorce decree stating the 

man she was married to has not fathered any children 

with her. If the mother has not been able to get a legal 

divorce, she may request paternity testing to be done at 

a child support enforcement agency in the county where 

she lives. In Madison County, that is Job and Family 

Services. The child support enforcement agency can use 

the results of the genetic testing to issue orders to add 

or to change the father on a birth certificate if needed. 

For more information on adding a father to a child’s 

birth certificate, visit www.oh-paternity.com or contact 

Madison County Public Health at (740) 852-3065 or

Madison County’s new 4-H leader sets goals 

Building on teen 

programs and 

communicating 

4-H’s many facets 

By Dedra Cordle 

Staff Writer 

Messenger photo by Dedra Cordle 

Frances Nicol is the new Madison 

County Extension educator 

of 4-H youth development. 

Madison County’s 4-H Rally 

Night is described as an evening of 

discovery. Potential members roam 

informational booths, looking for 

anything that might pique their interest. 

Current members do the 

same, albeit modifying their quest to 

find more activities. 

Parents, many of whom were 4- 

Hers in their youth, seek specifics 

from program leaders while trying 

to gauge their children’s interest before 

their children drag them to the 

big and small animals display. 

These types of scenarios played 

out once again at this year’s 4-H 

Rally Night, held Feb. 13 at the Della 

Selsor Building on the Madison 

County fairgrounds in London. One 

variation from Rally Nights of years 

past was the presence of a new 4-H 

program director. 

Earlier this month, Frances Nicol 

started her job as the new 4-H educator 

of youth development for the Ohio 

State University Extension-Madison 

County. She seized Rally Night as the 

perfect opportunity to get to know 

current and potential 4-Hers, advisors 

and parents. 

“I was able to meet a whole bunch 

of new people, discover some of the 

programs that are being offered, ask 

questions of club leaders and advisors, 

and learn more about this great 

Great turnout for Rally Night 

community where I will be working,” she said. 

Nicol’s journey to her new position began many years ago when 

she was first a tag-along to her older siblings who participated in 

4-H then a member herself. 

“I guess you could say I decided to follow in their footsteps,” said 

the Union County native. 

At age 8, Nicol began showing steer in her county’s junior fair. 

“It was my dad’s idea,” she said. “He showed cattle at fairs and 

wanted us to learn how to do it.” 

Though she wasn’t crazy about showing steer at first, Nicol said 

it turned out to be a big lesson in responsibility. 

“We had to take care of them, feed them, wash them and walk 

them every day,” she said. “It taught us responsibility right off the 

bat.” 

In addition to showing steer, Nicol was involved in sewing and 

nutrition projects and later the Future Farmers of America. 

“There was so much I was interested in,” she said. 

As a freshman at Fairbanks High School, Nicol joined the Union 

County junior fair board and became a camp counselor, supervising 

younger children as they discovered their own love of the outdoors. 

“I think being a camp counselor was one of the most fulfilling 

roles I have had in 4-H,” she said. 

Upon graduating from high school in 2014, Nicol attended The 

Ohio State University where she earned a bachelor’s degree in agriscience 

education in 2018. During her time at the university, she 

was a 4-H program assistant in Union County and an OSU Extension 

program assistant for 4-H camping and older youth. The latter 

was a position she held for more than a year before taking the job 

in Madison County. 

Nicol said she looks forward to leading the youth programs in 

Madison County. One of her goals is to engage older youth and build 

on teen programs. She hopes to visit local schools to talk about the 

4-H organization and the programs they offer. 

“When I was in college, we did a lot of engagement with children 

in urban school districts,” she explained. “Most were under the impression 

that 4-H was just for rural farm kids but that is not always 

the case. What I would like to see is more engagement with children 

and youth that have that perception and show them some of the 

other programs we have beyond raising animals.” 

Nicol said she is also is excited to help the junior fair board prepare 

for the Madison County Fair this summer. 

“They will do all the work they normally do,” she said. “I’ll just 

be there to answer any questions and get water for them when they 

need it.” 

Tonka, a 30-year-old miniature horse, proved to 

be a great recruiting tool. Siblings Ella and 

Chippy Ballah try to divert Tonka’s attention from 

the feed. It didn’t work.

Rotary’s Four Way Test Award goes to Freed 



Everybody knows somebody whose very 

nature it is to help others. 

On Feb. 14, the London Rotary Club honored 

five such somebodies at their annual 

Service Above Self awards. The presentation 

took place at the Madison County Senior 

Citizens Center in London. 

Rotary member Misty Bradley introduced 

the four Service Above Self winners. 

Member Kelly Snyder introduced the annual 

Four Way Test Person of the Year. 

Four Way Test Person of the Year 

• Marcus Freed 

Rotary’s Four-Way Test asks the following: 

1) Is it the truth?; 2) Is it fair to all concerned?; 

3) Will it build goodwill and better 

friendships?; 4) Is it beneficial to all concerned? 

“Marcus Freed is dedicated to helping 

others both here in our community and 

across the world, and is a true example of 

the ideals of Rotary,” Snyder said. 

Freed worked as a fourth-grade teacher 

at London Elementary for 12 years and as 

a guidance counselor at London Middle 

School for 20 years. 

In retirement, he spends his time in 

many volunteer pursuits, including hours at 

Madison Health where he greets visitors 

and helps them find their way around the 

hospital. He also has become a leader in the

hospital’s Auxiliary. 

“Whether he is outside selling geraniums 

or recruiting bakers for the Bake-Nic, 

he does it with energy and enthusiasm. He 

even spent Christmas Day caroling for the 

patients who had to be in the hospital,” said 

Snyder. 

Freed is immersed in prison ministry. 

Through the Horizon Prison Initiative, he 

helps inmates examine their faith and find 

strength, hope and forgiveness. He also volunteers 

with Kairos Prison Ministry. 

For the past 10 years, Freed has participated 

in Ride for Missions, pedaling and 

raising money for missionaries around the 

world. Last year, he biked 375 miles over 

five days from Memphis, Tenn., to Montgomery, 

Ind. 

Also in 2018, he traveled twice to El Salvador 

to take part in Wheels for the World. 

Each time, he helped to distribute more 

than 200 wheelchairs to children and adults 

with disabilities. In the past year, his service 

to others also has included donating 

blood platelets 23 times at the Red Cross for 

cancer patients. The two-hour process gave 

him time to continue studying Spanish as a 

second language. 

Upon accepting the Four Way Test Person 

of the Year award, Freed thanked the 

many mentors he’s had in his life, including 

his parents, siblings, and wife. He also 

thanked God. He praised Rotary as an organization 

with a focus on humanitarianism. 

Service Above Self honorees 

• Carol Ansel 

Carol Ansel started her career with 

Madison County Children Services and has 

spent the past 25 years at the Madison 

County Board of Developmental Disabilities 

(MCBDD). 

“Carol puts those that we serve first and 

is always spending her personal time assuring 

the health and safety of our folks,” wrote 

Susan Thompson, MCBDD superintendent, 

in her nomination letter. 

In addition to her duties as family support 

services director, Ansel serves on many 

statewide committees and has been active 

with Special Olympics. 

“The last years at the county board have 

been very fulfilling and rewarding,” Ansel 

said. 

A resident of London since 1986, she is a 

past president of the community’s former 

Jaycees chapter and belongs to First Presbyterian 

Church, where she has served as a 

deacon and played in the bell choir. 

She is the mother to 24-year-old twins 

who, during their school years, kept her 

busy with the London soccer and football 

programs. 

• Phyllis Follrod 

Anyone born in Madison County in the 

past 50-some years likely knows Phyllis 

Follrod. A retired registered nurse, the London 

native worked from 1963 to 2017 in the 

obstetrics department at Madison Health. 

She helped to deliver multiple generations 

of babies. Ironically, Follrod herself 

was born at home. 

“I still get emotional because I miss it,” 

she said about her work at the hospital. “To 

anybody I have touched, I love you all.” 

Follrod is an active member of Newport 

United Methodist Church, where she often 

can be found in the kitchen, making noodles 

or pies for an upcoming church dinner. 

• Diane Furbee 

In the fall of 2016, St. Patrick Church in 

London partnered with Madison Senior Living 

Community to host community suppers,

offering a hot meal to anyone looking for 

one. Diane Furbee serves as St. Patrick’s 

point person on the project, which now includes 

meal delivery and feeds up to 200 

people the second and fourth Wednesdays of 

each month. Furbee also coordinates the 

church’s Healing Meals ministry, providing 

meals to parishioners who are recovering 

from surgery or other hospital stays. 

“We couldn’t do what we do without lots 

of volunteers,” Furbee said. “It’s a great way 

to touch people—through a meal.” 

Last summer, the church hosted the 

Gospel Road community service program. 

Furbee coordinated meals and snacks for 

the 150 high school students and chaperones 

involved in the ministry. She also 

served many years as the church’s coordinator 

for the Welcome Table, a food ministry 

in London, and she regularly volunteers at 

HELP House. 

• Mary Anne Wood 

During her 18 years as children’s librarian 

at London Public Library, Mary Anne 

Wood has coordinated thousands of programs 

for the community’s youth, from storytimes 

for infants and toddlers to 

scavenger hunts for teens and visits from 

the Columbus Zoo, COSI and Newport 

Aquarium. She is best known for the summer 

reading program which encourages 

children to read during their time off from 

school. 

Wood is all about connecting children 

with the library in any way she can. She 

regularly travels to area preschools, daycares 

and Head Start to perform programs 

for children who are not able to get to the library. 

She visits schools in different storybook 

costumes and stresses the value of having a 

library card. She created a new “student library 

card” that gives children ages 5-17 the 

ability to check out five books at any time 

and access to library materials even if their 

parents’ card is not in good standing. 

About her job, Wood said, “I just do it because 

I love it. I love the kids. I have fun. 

I’m a kid myself.”


Major paving project starts this spring in West Jeff 

By Michael Williamson 

Staff Writer 

A major reconstruction and paving project 

will move forward this spring in West 

Jefferson. 

On Feb. 18, council members awarded 

the Walnut/Fellows reconstruction project 

to Columbus Asphalt Paving. The project, 

which has a projected start time of early 

April, will cost $808,597.28. 

“We’ll send out the notice of award this 

week, and it usually takes about four to six 

weeks to get under contract and get started,” 

said Randy VanTilburg of the engineering 

consulting firm Mannik & Smith Group. 

“That lines up with the first of April.” 

The reconstruction will encompass large 

sections of Fellows Avenue and Walnut 

Street where pavement will be removed and 

replaced. 

“Some of the sections will be ground down. 

Some will have curb work and replacement,” 

said Steve Johnston, council president. 

“There might be stormwater drains put in 

and adjustments made to piping.” 

Although early stages of construction are 

scheduled for April, the bulk of the construction 

is planned for June through August to 

minimize school-related traffic. 

“Since that is a major thoroughfare, we 

have to have it clear for the season,” Johnston 

said. 

Also at the Feb. 18 meeting, council confirmed 

the appointments of Taylor Patterson 

as full-time public service water and 

sewer clerk and Deborah DiLeo as clerk of 

council. DiLeo replaces Jack Herrel, who 

will stay on as an assistant. 

In other action Monday, council:

The 8th Annual Victorian Sweetheart Tea 

took place Feb. 16 to benefit the Friends 

of Mount Sterling Library. Event organizer 

Casey O’Neill estimates that this year’s 

event was the largest to date with approximately 

80 people in attendance. In addition 

to serving up treats, the Friends 

awarded prizes. For instance, Lauretta 

Spies was honored for having the most 

birthdays (she is 95). Jordan Wilkins won 

a prize for being the youngest boy in attendance. 

Shown here are scenes from 

the event. (TOP LEFT) Melicia Gainey was

Rotary Student of the Month: Madison-Plains 

Mast has bright future 

The London Rotary Club 

is pleased to honor senior 

Bradan Mast as Madison- 

Plains High School’s February 

Student of the Month. 

Students of the month are 

selected by school administrators 

based on their academic 

and extracurricular 

achievement and positive 

character. 

Mast has a 3.728 weighted 

grade point average and is 

ranked eighth in her class. Her 

favorite course is Biology II. 

Mast has been a member Bradan Mast 

of the volleyball team for four years. In that 

time, she has earned second-team all-Central 

District and first-team Ohio Heritage 

Conference honors. She has also been a 

member of the school’s powerlifting team, 

placing second in the state for Div. V and 

Div. 6 for girls in the 125-pound weight class. 

She has also been a member of National 

Honor Society, for which she served as treasurer, 

and Key Club for two years. 

When asked to name a staff member who 

inspires her, Mast named Molly Niese, who 

teaches biology, anatomy and physiology. 

“She always has a positive outlook on life, 

encourages you to be the best 

version of yourself, and is a 

great role model for setting 

goals and achieving them,” 

Mast said of Niese. 

Niese commented, “In the 

two years that I have had the 

pleasure of having Bradan in 

class, I have watched her 

work wholeheartedly in 

everything she does. She inspires 

me to do the same on a 

daily basis. I look forward to 

seeing her name in the spotlight 

next year for tearing up 

the volleyball court at Capital 

University ... but I am even more excited for 

her future as a nurse because I have no 

doubt that she will continue to pour her 

heart into her work and will bring great joy 

and hope to everyone she encounters.” 

Mast is the daughter of Brian and Darcey 

Mast. 

The London Rotary Club has a proud history 

that dates back to 1929. It is a member 

of Rotary International, a volunteer organization 

of 1.2 million business and professional 

leaders united worldwide to provide 

humanitarian service and help build good 

will and peace.
