New logo and 

more fireworks 

By Kristy Zurbrick 

Madison Editor 

The city of London now has a logo. 

Mayor Patrick Closser unveiled the design at the April 1 city 

council meeting. It features the city’s name, a set of buildings, and 

an arrow pointing up. 

The house in the logo represent the citizens and families that 

are the backbone of the community, 

Closser said. The storefront 

represents the businesses that 

continue to thrive in the community. 

The courthouse is included 

as the most well-known landmark 

in the city and in Madison County 

and as a symbol of the city’s heritage. 

The arrow climbing over the 

buildings sends the message that 

City of London’s new logo 

the city will prosper into the future. 

“With great teamwork, we 

know the sky is the limit,” Closser said of the logo’s theme. 

For many years, a seal that features compass points inside a circle 

has appeared in city communications and on city vehicles. While 

the seal has its place, Closser said, the new logo is the tool the city 

will use to convey “what the city is about and where it is heading.” 

Soon, it will appear on signage, t-shirts, marketing materials and 

possibly city vehicles. 

“We’re going to start getting it out there so we have more of an 

identity,” Closser said.

West Jeff adds properties to reinvestment area 

By Josephine Birdsell 

Staff Writer 

West Jefferson village council added 

properties to a Community Reinvestment 

Area (CRA) agreement at their regularly 

scheduled meeting on April 5. 

The properties include a 2.4-acre parcel 

on Enterprise Parkway and 180 acres along 

U.S. Route 40. Core 5-WJS LAND LLC 

owns both properties. 

The CRA agreement provides a 100 percent 

property tax exemption on the two

properties for the next 10 years. 

The agreement is designed to fuel development 

in the village, providing more jobs 

for village residents, said John Mitchell, 

West Jefferson’s public service director. 

Core 5 plans to build three buildings on 

the 180-acre property. Design plans for the 

buildings are not set, however Core 5 plans 

to build a warehouse, such as a distribution 

center or manufacturing plant. 

Core 5 also plans to extend U.S. Route 29 

to the end of their property. The project will 

require Core 5 to extend water and sewer

systems, as well. The Route 29 extension 

will be tax exempt. 

The 2.4-acre property is attached to a 

larger property that Core 5 recently purchased. 

The larger property was already 

covered by the CRA agreement. Adding the 

2.4-acre property to the agreement allows 

Core 5 to expand into the area. 

In other news, the village extended the 

Family First Coronavirus Response act 

until June 30, 2021. 

The act uses Coronavirus Aid, Relief and 

Economic Security Act funding to pay government 

employees if they test positive for 

COVID-19 or if they are quarantined by 

Madison County Public Health. 

The act does not cover police officers as 

they are critical personnel, Martin said. 

If police officers are issued a quarantine, 

they must still go to work, but the village 

monitors their temperature and symptoms 

daily and keeps them away from the public 

as possible. If an officer tests positive for 

COVID-19, they may quarantine with pay. 

The act was first passed in March 2020.

Duffey, Extension’s ultimate team player, retires 



As a child, Arlene Duffey participated in 4-H for one year, didn’t 

experience camp, and didn’t complete her fair project. So, as an 

adult, when she applied for the office associate job at Madison 

County OSU Extension, she knew nothing about Extension programming 

and services. 

“I walked out the door thinking, ‘I blew that interview,” she recalls, 

“only to be offered the job the next day.” 

That was 37 years ago. Duffey went on to become more than familiar 

with Madison County Extension; she became the office’s ever 

present, always reliable rock. 

“I have had the pleasure of working with two family consumer 

science educators, seven agricultural agents, and eight 4-H educators,” 

said Duffey, who retired on March 31. 

She also flew solo on several occasions when staffing changes, 

vacancies, and budget cuts left her as the office’s sole employee. 

When asked about her years with Extension, Duffey talks more 

about the people with whom she worked than she does herself— 

praising her co-workers and 4-H participants, parents, advisors and 

volunteers. 

“I’ve met hundreds of wonderful, caring individuals over my 37- 

plus years who made my job so easy and pleasant,” she said. 

Among them were former 4-H educators Eleanor Ames and Roxann 

Sommers, who showed her the ropes early on, and 4-H club advisors 

Pat Gallimore, Roseann Harbage and Kevin Stockham, who

have been with the program as long as she has. 

“Madison County has an outstanding, caring base of 4-H volunteers 

and parents. I personally cannot ever remember a volunteer 

saying ‘no’ to help at events,” Duffey said. 

From her long list of accomplishments and involvement, it is apparent 

that Duffey herself rarely said “no.” Considered the ultimate 

team player by her co-workers, Duffey pitched in wherever and 

whenever she could, from providing leadership to the Master Gardeners 

program to spearheading the creative baking contest which 

engages youths who would not otherwise be involved in 4-H and 

raises funds to make the fairgrounds more accessible. 

“I also was given the liberty of writing news articles and newsletters 

and organizing 4-H events with a lot of help from the 4H Committee 

members and volunteers. Our pre-COVID rally event was 

one of our best,” she said. 

Over the course of three-and-a-half decades, Duffey has seen 

generations of 4-Hers grow up. 

LONDON 

Continued from page 1 

Fireworks 

London will celebrate Independence Day with 50 

percent more boom than it did last year. On April 1, 

council voted 6-1 to increase the mayor’s budget for this 

year’s fireworks from $10,000 to $15,000, upon council 

member Rich Hays’ suggestion. Carla Blazier cast the 

lone “no” vote. 

“For such a small portion of our overall budget, to 

add that $5,000 really does mean a lot to the citizens,” 

Closser said. “I’ve already had people reach out to me 

and thank me and thank (council) for doing that. 

“People need something. We need just to sit back and 

stare at the sky. If we can, instead of 20 or 25 minutes, 

be able to do that for 35 minutes, just that little extra 

bit, sitting there with your family, being able to watch 

those fireworks go off, is just an amazing thing.” 

Henry Comer, council president, agreed. 

“That is really going to help bring a sense of normalcy,” 

he said. 

The fireworks display will take place eon July 3. 

COSI Kits 

For the second year in a row, COSI (Center of Science 

and Industry) is moving its annual Science Festival 

online. In-person festivities, including satellite 

events in areas outside of Columbus, have been cancelled 

due to COVID-19. 

To engage children living in those satellite cities, 

COSI is sending out “STEM lunchboxes.” STEM stands 

“When my first 4-H members, counselors 

and Junior Fairboard members walked 

back into the Extension office to be 4-H volunteers 

and start their own clubs, I started 

to feel a little older,” she said. “Then, as 

they enrolled their own kids in 4-H and 

those kids are now college graduates or 

married and have kid of kids of their own… 

I just have a to say that age is only a number 

and you are only as old as you feel!” 

To bid Duffey farewell, the Extension Office 

created a webpage where people could 

post memories, photos, and messages of 

thanks and congratulations. 

Kirk Bloir, assistant director of Ohio’s 4- 

H Youth Development, summed up Duffey’s 

career nicely, writing: “Thank you for the 

countless ways you’ve helped to make the 

best better, Arlene. You’ve been the glue 

that’s held the program together and the 

shoe that’s helped to kick it up a notch.” 

Duffey has earned awards for her dedication 

to Extension, including the 2019 OSU 

Extension Support Staff Excellence Award 

and the 2017 Dorothy Rex Inspirational 

Award. She said the most memorable recognition 

was the 1998 Friend of 4-H Award. 

Along the way, Duffey has helped to establish 

4-H as a tradition in her own family. 

Her sons were members of the Kountry 

Kids 4-H Club and attended 4-H Camp. Her 

granddaughter, Addy, participated in 

Cloverbud day camps. Her grandson, Gavin, 

was looking forward to Cloverbud camp this 

year until COVID-19 led to its cancellation. 

As for her retirement plans, Duffey said 

they include spending time with her grandchildren, 

traveling, volunteering, and working 

for Bryan Wilson’s Hudson’s Edge 

Catering & Events. 

for science, technology, engineering and math. The 

boxes include STEM-related activities based on a NASA 

theme. A total of 500 boxes are headed London’s way. 

Of those, 350 are going to London City Schools and 150 

are going to St. Patrick School. 

The boxes will arrive by the end of April. 

City business 

• The city is cracking down on property owners who 

have not paid their bills even after given plenty of opportunity 

to do so. As a starting point, they are looking 

at closed accounts that are several years delinquent. On 

April 1, they voted unanimously to collect payment 

through property taxes, in cooperation with the Madison 

County Auditor’s Office, on a North Main Street account 

that is delinquent by more than $700. Closser 

said council can expect to see more of these types of ordinances 

in the coming weeks. 

• Council voted unanimously to appoint Amy Rees 

as the new council clerk. She replaces Arlene Duffey 

who retired at the end of last month after 32 years of 

service. Rees will perform the clerk duties in addition 

to her job as executive assistant for the city’s administrative 

offices. 

• Council voted 6-0 to close a portion of the alley that 

runs parallel to Virginia Avenue, between Columbia 

and Chandler avenues. Originally, the petitioner requested 

vacation of the entire alley, but council decided 

on a partial closure after hearing from citizens with concerns 

that included property access. Council member 

Josh Peters abstained from the vote.

West Jeff’s mock trial team Zooms back to state 



A little more than a year ago, two mock trial teams from West 

Jefferson High School qualified for state competition. It was the 

fifth time in nine years the program qualified for the big show and 

the first time with two teams. Excitement was high...until organizers 

pulled the plug the night before the competition due to COVID- 

19. 

Fast forward to this year. West Jefferson qualified for state 

again, this time with one team. On that team were many of the students 

who lost out on the state experience last year. 

“They had kind of a sense of, ‘We want to finish what we 

started,’” said Jenny Siddiqi, the team’s advisor. 

The road to state qualification looked much different this time 

around. Practices and competitions took place over Zoom, an online 

video conferencing platform, instead of in person. The team worked 

through the technical challenges of sound, camera angles, and split 

screens to facilitate direct- and cross-examinations and to share exhibits. 

“At first, we wondered how this was going to work, but it surprisingly 

worked pretty well,” said Siddiqi, who co-advises the group 

with Marla Farbacher, a local resident and attorney. “It was a lot 

to figure out on top of learning about the case.” 

Each year, the Ohio Center for Law-Related Education, sponsor 

of the Ohio Mock Trial Competition, writes an original case based 

on a relevant constitutional issue. The case details are presented to 

mock trial teams in the fall. Students must prepare arguments for 

prosecution and defense. 

This year’s case involved a teen accused of murdering a love interest. 

When told there was an eyewitness, the teen took a plea 

deal. Afterwards, the witness expressed uncertainty about whether 

the accused person was actually the person who committed the 

crime. With that information, the accused teen wanted to rescind 

the plea deal. 

In preparing the case, mock trial team members learned about 

plea bargaining, the importance of eyewitnesses, and the Brady 

rule, which requires prosecutors to disclose exculpatory evidence in 

the government’s possession to the defense. Exculpatory evidence 

is evidence that could excuse, justify or absolve the alleged fault or 

guilt of a defendant. 

The West Jefferson students who tackled this year’s case in- 

West Jefferson High School’s mock trial team qualified for state competition this year. The team included: (front 

row, from left) Raina Peter, Taylor Fry, Harley Johnson, Emma Hostetler; (back row) Riley Marshall, Annabel 

Phipps, Olivia Foreman, Jessica Fling, Tennessee Jennings and Autumn Lewis. Not pictured: Grace Kitchen. 

cluded: 

• prosecution team—junior Tennessee Jennings and 

sophomore Autumn Lewis as attorneys; juniors Annabel 

Phipps and Grace Kitchen as witnesses; 

• defense team—junior Jessica Fling and senior 

Emma Hostetler as attorneys; senior Taylor Fry and 

junior Riley Marshall as witnesses; 

• timekeeper—junior Olivia Foreman; 

• alternates—seniors Raina Peter and Harley Johnson. 

The team won both trials at district and regionals to 

advance to state competition which started on March 

11. From among approximately 220 teams statewide, 

West Jefferson was one of 19 teams to qualify for state. 

The group won their first trial but got knocked out of 

the competition after losing the second trial by a few 

points. Only four teams made it out of the first two 

rounds. 

“We were really pleased with how they did. We were 

up against a really good team, Orange High School from 

northeast Ohio,” Siddiqi said. 

About the season overall, she continued, “We went 

from not knowing how we were going to do this in the 

new format to, at the end of the day, having what I 

think is one of the strongest teams West Jefferson has 

ever had.”

Vigilance required when walking furry friend 

I rarely watch PBS—too much culture for my crude existence. But 

recently, I stumbled across something exciting on PBS’s “Masterpiece’—a 

new adaptation of the 1978-1990 series, “All Creatures 

Great and Small,” the story of a 1930s veterinarian, James Herriot, 

set in Yorkshire, a historic county in England. I loved reading the 

books that inspired the original series. The new series is=s truly excellent—better 

than the original—and I’m glad to see it will be back 

for another season. Watching it turned back the pages to my college 

days when I lived and worked at a veterinary clinic much like the 

one portrayed in the books and no TV. 

The veterinarian I worked for was very much like Herriot. His 

practice was split about 80 percent small animals and 20 percent 

large animals. His life was his work. He was totally dedicated to it 

as many vets were in those days. There were no after-hour emergency 

clinics in those days. He or his associate was on call 24/7/365. 

It was not unusual for me to get a middle-of-the-night call in my 

downstairs clinic apartment to assist with an emergency. We’d head 

out to a dairy farm for a calving or milk fever case, perform surgery 

in the clinic for dogs hit by cars, or remove quills from a dog that 

tangled with a porcupine. A recent dog walk triggered a flashback 

to one specific emergency. 

We’d just locked up the clinic after a long day. I was back in my 

tiny apartment where I had just finished de-doggyfying myself with 

a long shower. The clinic intercom phone rang. “Dave, got a dog 

emergency coming in, going to need you.” The vet’s house was attached 

to the clinic, just like Herriot’s was. 

Within minutes, we were back in the clinic and the dog arrived— 

a very heavy, full grown Saint Bernard. He was bleeding profusely 

from multiple areas. The owner said the dog lunged through the living 

room window when another dog walked by outside. He shattered 

the glass, sustaining several severed veins and arteries and 

injured tissue. He was in bad shape, and I could see concern in the 

doctor’s eyes. 

Surgery lasted for quite some time, but the doctor got him sewn 

back together and the bleeding stopped. His loyal clinic resident 

dog, a docile Chesapeake Bay retriever named Lancer, graciously 

donated much needed blood, something he’d been called on to do a 

few times before. The injured dog beat the odds and went on to recover. 

Memories of that night came back as I walked my dog and went 

by a house that always worries me. It has two large-breed dogs that 

stand on top of the living room couch and lunge repeatedly at the 

window, barking like guard dogs as we walk by. When there’s full

sunlight, you can see the glass 

move. I always let out a sigh of 

relief when we get by. So far, the 

window has held. But who 

knows? Two big dogs lunging 

with all their weight, hitting the window at the exact 

same time in a certain way? They’re tempting fate. I 

can’t understand why the owners continue to ignore the 

obvious, ominous risk. 

That situation happens more than you’d think. But 

it’s usually the smaller breeds, so I don’t worry as much. 

Many dogs (and a few neighbors) let us know we’re not 

welcome as we walk by. That’s natural and fine, so long 

as they are contained. Some even wag their tails in 

friendship and whine at the front door. A few have managed 

to burst out the front door and come at us, not in 

friendship. Years ago, one came at my dog, and I got 

tangled in the leash and pulled down. Luckily, we were 

able to get things under control without any damage to 

me or the dogs. 

It all comes down to responsibility and anticipation. 

If you are a responsible dog owner, you anticipate and 

assess situations and react accordingly to prevent obvious 

risks. If you are not and do neither, things can 

happen, sometimes bad things. I live with the memory 

of jury duty in 1987, when we heard the case of a little 

girl who was mauled by two dogs that escaped a poorly 

secured back porch. It was a senseless tragedy that a 

little forethought could have prevented. 

When I go for a walk, I keep my eyes far ahead. If I 

see a situation that might present a problem, often a 

loose dog, I try to avoid it by waiting or changing my 

route. There are times I can’t avoid it and try to prepare 

myself. Controlling my large dog can be difficult. Sometimes, 

I must yell at the top of my lungs at a loose, rapidly 

approaching, aggressive dog while dragging my 

large dog out of harm’s way. It leaves me exhausted and 

my dog puffing and panting. 

Dogs have Houdini genes and can be incredible escape 

artists. It’s natural for some to answer the distant 

call of the wild, especially if they are bored or don’t get

regular exercise. They find 

ways to get out of their enclosures. 

Sometimes, the owners 

don’t realize until hours later 

that they are gone. Meanwhile, 

the loose dogs are dodging 

cars, not always 

successfully, or wreaking 

havoc with other dogs in the 

neighborhood or beyond. 

When the dogs return, their 

owners don’t take time to fix 

the escape route. Soon, the jail 

break scenario happens all 

over again. 

A popular neighborhood 

website is always filled with 

dog notice postings: lost, 

found, two large dogs seen 

running down… Has anyone 

seen.., etc. It’s disconcerting 

how many active posts there 

are, but also encouraging how 

fast helpful responses come in from concerned neighbors. 

They often result in happy resolutions. But sometimes 

the posts remain unresolved and sometimes 

resolved, but on a sad note. 

Situations arise with dogs, things happen, and they 

will get loose. That’s understandable and acceptable 

under the assumption the owner recognizes it shouldn’t 

and deals with it. Maybe that’s the root of the problem. 

Perhaps a few just don’t realize things can happen or 

refuse to deal with it. We’ve all asked the question, 

“Why do they even have a dog?” Some folks just 

shouldn’t have one. They just aren’t prepared to accept 

the responsibilities and, apparently, just aren’t able to 

comprehend the far-ranging risks.

Find out what your soil needs by doing a test 

ask a master 

gardener 

Jane Kutzley 

Right now, before gardening is in full 

swing, is the best time to do a soil test. You 

will have the results back in time for most 

of the planting to be done this season and 

will know exactly what your soil needs for 

maximum productivity. 

Why do a soil test? A soil test will provide 

information about the nutrients currently in 

your soil and, more importantly, what is 

needed. This is valuable both for growing 

lush gardens and for thick healthy lawns. It 

could very well pay for itself in money saved 

on unneeded fertilizers because you will 

know exactly what is needed. No more applying 

a little of this “just in case” or some 

of that because “I always do.” 

You will also be able to match soil pH (a 

measure of acidity) to the appropriate 

plants. Most soils in Madison County are 

somewhat alkaline. Plants that prefer a 

more acidic environment (such as azaleas) 

will not thrive in alkaline soil and should be 

eliminated from consideration. Blueberries 

also prefer acidic soil so, rather than planting 

blueberries in the garden, Madison 

County gardeners should choose a variety of 

blueberries bred for growing in containers. 

It will be much easier to control the soil pH 

Madison Messenger staffers won several 

awards in the 2020 MACPA (Mid-Atlantic 

Community Papers Association) editorial 

contest. 

Staff writer Theresa Hennis won first 

place in the COVID-19 coverage category 

with “Taking grassroots approach to helping 

in crisis,” a story about one woman’s efforts 

to collect care package items for nursing 

home residents and recruit seamstresses to 

sew masks for frontline workers. 

In the same category, editor Kristy Zurbrick 

took second place with “Painting a 

new way to celebrate graduation,” a story 

Before planting, test your soil to see what nutrients it needs and to determine its pH levels. 

in a container than in the garden bed. 

Frequently, a soil test will offer information 

as to why a particular plant failed to 

thrive. For example, yellowing, or chlorosis 

of a plant’s leaves, can often be diagnosed 

by a soil test. Armed with knowledge, you 

can apply exactly the right nutrient(s) for 

improved growth. 

How do you do a soil test? It’s easy and 

reasonably quick. Call the Madison County 

Messenger staffers win awards 

about Jonathan Alder Local Schools’ creative 

solutions to honoring graduating seniors 

during the pandemic. 

Zurbrick also earned an honorable mention 

in the feature story category for her 

piece, “To the tune of 101 years old,” about 

London resident Waveline Kelso. 

Staff writer Dedra Cordle took second 

place in the feature story category for “She 

is London’s first state wrestling champ,” 

about London teen Grace Jones, who won 

the 116-pound class at Ohio’s first girls’ 

state wrestling championship.

JONES (RALPH) 

Ralph Allen Jones, 85, of London, Ohio, went home to the waiting 

arms of the Lord and many family and friends on April 2, 2021, 

at Grant Medical Center after a courageous two-year journey with 

cancer. Born in Columbus, Ohio, on April 16, 1935, to John 

Ellsworth Jones and Mary Elizabeth Terry Jones, Ralph was the 

eldest of three sons. He married the love of his life, Elsie Jean Colwell 

Jones, on July 31, 1957. From this bond a daughter, Jacqueline 

Sue Jones Holton of London, was born in 1964. 

Ralph was rarely idle with his hands, his mind or his heart. He 

worked in his workshop until his health would not allow him, only 

recently, although he was still thinking of things he could do when 

he got better. He began his woodworking/carpentry apprenticeship 

with his father and grandfather at the age of 13 and had worked in 

the trade ever since while working other jobs on the side along the 

way. He was a member of the Carpenter’s Union and helped erect 

dormitories for the Ohio State University, as an example. He helped 

design and build the original Cowling Park shelter house in London, 

a project he was proud to be a part of. He worked numerous factory 

jobs including his turn in the ranks at the Brillo plant. He dabbled 

in horse racing and rodeos, riding Brahma bulls, and feather weight 

boxing. 

In his later years, Ralph became known for furniture building, 

repair and refinishing. He was a forum admin on Wood Magazine 

where he did tutorials and quizzes, deeply engraining himself in 

the woodworking community worldwide. His last formal employment 

position was that of carpentry teacher at the Madison Correctional 

Institute. 

During his life, he was also committed to the military. He joined 

the Marines and was on the front lines in 

the Korean conflict. After the Marines, he 

signed up for the Army National Guard and 

later the Air Force Reserves, from which he 

retired in 1995. During his military career, 

Ralph earned silver stars and two Purple 

Hearts, among numerous other awards. He 

was active in VFW Post 1176. He performed 

taps every Memorial Day with the group at 

all London ceremonies for 42 consecutive 

years. 

In his spare time throughout his life, 

Ralph played a wash tub bass and harmonicas 

in various country, gospel and bluegrass 

music groups. He performed at the 

Grand Ole’ Opry, Renfro Valley and local 

venues and festivals. 

Although he was a hard worker, he had 

a sense of humor and was very proud of his 

family. He was always quick to tell a joke or 

tease. 

Ralph is survived by: his daughter; 

granddaughter, Desiree Holton (Nick De- 

Vivo) of California; step-grandson, Kenneth 

W. (Rebekah) Holton of Georgia; step-greatgrandson, 

Kenneth D. Holton of London;

step-great-granddaughter, Madison Holton; step-great-great-grandchildren; 

numerous nieces and nephews; brothers- and sisters-inlaw; 

cousins and friends. He also leaves behind his beloved fur kids, 

Geovoni and Patches. He was preceded in death by: his wife, Elsie; 

son-in-law, Michael Holton; parents; brothers, Ronald E. Jones and 

Raymond A. Jones; grandparents; numerous beloved aunts, uncles, 

brothers- and sisters-in-law; and several nieces and nephews. 

Although Ralph’s hands are now idle, the creativity, work ethic, 

drive and love of country and life will carry on through his family 

that he cherished and his work will be dabbled throughout the lives 

of those who he shared his work with. Never to be forgotten. Oh, 

the stories he could tell. If he touched your life in one way or another, 

please continue his story. 

The family would like to thank the Madison Health Oncology 

Team for their amazing care, concern and compassion during his 

journey. Appreciation also goes to the crew at the M&M Diner for 

treating him so special. 

Public visitation was set for 4-7 p.. April 9 in Eberle-Fisher Funeral 

Home and Crematory, London. Public funeral services were 

set for 1 p.m. April 10 at the funeral home with Pastor Virgil Green 

officiating, followed by interment with military honors in Somerford 

Township Cemetery. Covid-19 guidelines will be followed. You can

Lifeline of Ohio breaks record, saves 446 lives 

Lifeline of Ohio passed the most significant 

benchmark in its 35-year history: 446 

lives saved in 2020 through organ donation 

and transplantation. This number reflects 

the largest amount of lives saved and healed 

in the organization’s history. 

Serving central and southeast Ohio, Lifeline 

of Ohio coordinated lifesaving gifts from 

165 organ donors in 2020, resulting in 517 

organs transplanted. In addition, the organization 

recovered healing gifts of tissue from 

584 donors, while 234 cornea donors gave 

the gift of sight. Newer to Lifeline of Ohio is 

their Placenta Donation Program which acquired 

199 placentas in 2020. 

“In a year of unthinkable loss, our donors 

and their families made it possible for 446 

people to celebrate 2020 as the year they received 

the gift of life, and thousands of others 

to see the future with new eyes, less pain 

and more healing,” said Kent Holloway, 

CEO. “We continue to be thankful for each 

of our donors, the dedication of our staff 

members and the transplant programs we 

are fortunate to work with.” 

Tyler Parker is among the lives saved in 

2020 by donors. He was born in 2007 with a 

congenital liver disease which eventually 

obituaries 

led to his need for a transplant. Nearly two 

years after being added to the national 

transplant waiting list, Tyler and his family 

received the call on March 13, 2020, that a 

liver was available. Post-transplant, Tyler, 

13, is thriving and is active, able to go to 

school and be a great big brother to his two 

little sisters. 

“A selfless donor gave my family a second 

chance at life through an incredible liver 

transplant,” said Tyler’s mother, Holly. “I 

will be forever grateful and humbled to have 

my son alive and well.” 

Lifeline of Ohio serves 78 hospitals in 38 

counties in Ohio, including Madison County, 

and two in West Virginia. In 2020, the organization 

worked closely with donor families 

and transplant centers to ensure every 

opportunity for donation was maximized to 

save the greatest number of lives. Although 

a record number of lives were saved through 

donation in 2020, there are more than 3,000 

men, women and children in Ohio waiting 

for an organ transplant and hundreds more 

await tissue and corneal transplants.

Zy’airah Lee’andrya Nicole Jones, 7 

weeks old, of London died on March 29, 

2021, at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.

the daughter of Catherine Ferriman and Jeremy 

Jones.

brothers, Denzel and Xavier Jones; grandparents,

Tammy Detty; great-grandmother, Tonya 

Buchanan; aunts and uncles, Jermaine

Jaysmyn Jones, Kellon Bolin, Jayla Bolin, 

Jallisa Bolin, Carolyn Hoosier, and Richard 

Hoosier; and her godmother, Oshzina 

“Naya” Colwell. 

A graveside service and interment was 

held on April 6 at Oak Hill Cemetery with 

Rev. Mike Hodge officiating. The family was 

served by Eberle-Fisher Funeral Home and 

Crematory, London. Condolences may be 

sent to www.eberlefisherfuneralhome.com. 

HENRY 

Jerry L. Henry, 60, of London died on 

March 24, 2021, in Toledo. Born on Dec. 8, 

1960, in Columbus, he was the son of

Jerry excelled at landscaping and construction, 

especially carpentry. He loved fishing, 

music and going to concerts, cooking, tinkering, 

the Cleveland Browns, was a habitual 

bike rider and was a great storyteller. He

to whomever needed one. 

Survivors include: his daughter, Hannah 

Marie Henry; stepson, Brandon Kennedy;

his father and mother; son, Clay; brothers,
