The Iron Brothers
By Linda Dillman
Staff Writer
Rolling thunder comes to Lockbourne a couple of
times a month, but this roar of motorcycles on
Sunday evenings stops at the edge of town at the Iron
Brothers LE motorcycle clubhouse.
Comprised mainly of police officers, first responders
and military, the club–started in 2001–is
named for the brotherhood members share and the
iron on which they ride.
“The main reasons we started the club is brotherhood
and wanting to help others that are in need,”
said club spokesman Chad Roberts, otherwise known
as “Reaper.” “This is a club of friends that love to ride.
It allows us to combine a love of riding, bonding us
through friendship and an extended family. We are
always looking for ways we help people in need, the
community and support each other.”
According to Roberts, club members selected the
Lockbourne site–the former home of a café, market
and gas station–because they liked the small-town feel
and are hoping to grow and support the community.
The Iron Brothers sponsor three major events each
year, including fundraisers for cancer research, cystic
fibrosis, and fallen officers and first responders.
A special little girl who touched the lives of club
members was a 6-year-old known to the brothers as
“KatieBug.” She had cystic fibrosis and Roberts said
she instantly stole the hearts of the Iron Brothers
members and families.
“We provided a lot of firsts for KatieBug,” said
Roberts, who said the girl spent most of her life in the
hospital aside from a few times she was released for
short periods of time. The Iron Brothers on more than
one occasion gave her a motorcycle escort home. We
had her seventh birthday party at Children’s
Hospital, took her to her first pumpkin patch and on
her first vacation. Sadly, we lost KatieBug within a
year of meeting her. Her strength, happiness, and
determination through everything she endured made
every one of us a better person. She told everyone we
were her big brothers.”

Obetz Mayor Angela Kirk outlined the upcoming holiday
events for the city.
On Dec. 10, there will be a tree lighting in downtown Obetz
with hot cocoa and cookies. City officials hope to have a choir sing
some Christmas carols that night.
On Dec. 11, Santa’s sleigh will travel through neighborhoods
starting at 5 p.m.
“We may not be done until 9 p.m., so make sure the kids are
awake and watching for that sleigh to come through,” said Kirk.
Currently, the lighting of the trail at Fortress Obetz is scheduled
for Dec. 12, but the city is considering another date. An
another announcement will be made on the city of Obetz’s
Facebook page so keep an eye out for that.
Obetz Police news
Obetz Police Chief Michael Confer shared some recent statistics
from the police department that included: 824 calls to service,
51 moving violations (11 of those were for speeding), five parking
citations, one felony misdemeanor arrest, 18 reports, and 14 automobile
crashes. There was also a hostage negotiation situation on
Meriline Avenue.
“Over the weekend a fight broke out between a couple of guys,”
said Confer. “One barricaded himself in his house. The three negotiators
for the Obetz Police came out and were able to get the man
out of his house after about an hour and deal with the consequences
of his actions. The man was transported to the hospital
for his injuries. He has been charged with having a weapon under
disability (having a weapon while intoxicated) and aggravated
menacing.”
Confer wasn’t able to name the man, yet, as the case is with the
prosecutor’s office.
Wiley Hill
Resident Becci Thacker-Dunn asked Obetz City Council when
the dedication of Wiley Hill will happen so that residents will
know where it is so kids can sled on it.
The big hill is near Fortress Obetz and is named for former
council member James Wiley, who died in October 2019. Council
posthumously honored him by renaming the newly-constructed
Obetz Sledding Hill to “Wiley Hill.” Wiley was known as an advocate
for the kids and
a big supporter for
the sledding hill.
Obetz City Administrator
Rod Davisson
explained the
delay in the dedication.
“Signs right now
are taking forever,”
said Davisson. “I’ll
make it work. It might
be a sign that’s not the
ultimate sign, but
enough to get it adopted.
It should have happened
much sooner.”

Tree farm’s time to shine
By Linda Dillman
Staff Writer
Imagine a farm where you work hard
all year, but your selling season lasts
less than a month and you have the
labor of love operated by tree farmers
Cecil and Melissa Rapp.
The couple started their Bedford
Falls Christmas Tree Farm in 2014
after purchasing a dilapidated, but historic
house more than 10 years ago,
along with acres of land in Lockbourne
nestled along a railroad line. They came
upon the abandoned farmhouse one day
while out for a Sunday drive and fell in
love with it and the location.
“We purchased the abandoned farmhouse
and land in 2003 with hopes to
save the historic 1848 home,” said
Melissa Rapp, “and it is still a work in
progress. We always dreamed of living
on a nice piece of land and wanted to do
something with it. My husband had
built commercial sprayers for the landscape
industry and when visiting his
customers that had tree farms, it was
always interesting. We love the fact that
we can do something with the land that
helps families make memories.”
While it took a year to just coax the
brick home into a habitable state, the
couple started clearing brush and trees
from the fields and planting fir and pine
seedlings with hopes of opening a viable
tree farm in the future.
In 2020, their dream was realized
when they opened their doors for the first
time to holiday memory makers the day
after Thanksgiving.
“We planted our first crop in 2014, and
continue to plant every spring,” said
Rapp. “We purchase 4,000 to 5,000
seedlings each spring. That sounds like a
lot, but there is some loss with each crop
that we have to plan on over the course of
the seven years or so that they grow
before harvest.”
The couple plant a variety of trees in
each field–White Pine, Fraser Fir,
Canaan Fir, Colorado Blue Spruce and
Concolor Fir–and the work is a lot harder
than they imagined.
“People may think that we only work
one month a year during the Christmas
season, but oh no,” she said.
There is field preparation and planting
in the spring, field mowing from April
to November, shaping and shearing trees
starting around the third year of growth,
pest control–sometimes by hand, weed
control and machinery maintenance.

Melissa and Cecil Rapp prepare one of the
thousands of trees they are growing on
their farm for the upcoming holiday season.
All accomplished by the couple alone
under the watchful eye of their Great
Dane, George.
Then there are the behind-the-scenes
activities such as bookkeeping, retail
shop purchases, marketing and planning
for everything to ensure a memorable
holiday experience for guests.
The Bedford Falls Christmas Tree
Farm–yes, the name celebrates the
magic of the fictional town in the classic
holiday film, “It’s a Wonderful Life”–
opens the day after Thanksgiving and
closes for the season this year on Dec.19.
Their regular hours are 11a.m. to 5 p.m.
Friday, Saturday, and Sundays and the
farm is located at 7258 Lockbourne Road.
“We supply saws for families to go into
our field to cut their own tree, we shake
them, net them and help load the trees on
the cars,” said Rapp. “We also have precut
trees available for folks that prefer a
ready-to-go tree.”
A complementary cup of cocoa and a
Christmas cookie awaits guests and this
year the Rapps teamed up with R & B
Canned Goods–a local family business
based in Obetz–to offer vintage inspired
treats in keeping with the nostalgic “It’s
A Wonderful Life” theme.
Santa Claus will visit the farm on Dec.
4 from noon to 2 p.m. and a professional
photographer is available the first two
Sundays of the season to go out in the
field and capture tree cutting memories
for families.

Franklin County Board of Commissioners: President Kevin L. Boyce • Commissioner John O’Grady, and Commissioner Erica C. Crawley
The Franklin County Board of Commissioners and The Franklin County Office on Aging join with the Messenger Newspaper in providing this update on aging issues in Franklin County.
Financial Exploitation
What is financial exploitation, and do you know the signs? The Franklin
County Office on Aging has launched an educational and preventative
campaign centered around financial exploitation among older adults.
Financial exploitation is a form of elder abuse that is not uncommon. It is
so common in fact that the National Conference of State Legislatures
revealed that “the number of bills introduced by state legislators to combat
elder financial exploitation increased by more than 57 percent in three
years”. Franklin County residents are not immune to elder abuse, and as
the population of older adults increases, consequently financial exploitation
will increase as well. In 2020, there was a total of 1,560 cases investigated
by the Franklin County Office on Aging’s Adult Protective Services,
with almost 40 percent of these cases involving some form of exploitation
of the older adult, accompanied by emotional and verbal abuse along with
neglect.
Financial exploitation is most often associated with the stealing of cash or
an individual persuading another to give money to a false cause, however,
there is so much more. According to the United States Department of
Justice, “Financial exploitation means the illegal or improper use, control
over, or withholding of the property, income, resources, or trust funds of
the elderly person or the vulnerable adult by any person or entity for any
person's or entity's profit or advantage other than for the elder person or
the vulnerable adult's profit or advantage”. So, while financial exploitation
can take on many different forms, the deception can also happen by
anyone.
Often abuse, including financial exploitation, is underreported due to the
feelings of embarrassment and fear. The National Adult Protective
Services Association found that “only one in 44 cases of financial abuse is
ever reported”. It is the responsibility of mandated reporters, family,
friends, caregivers, and any other person that interacts with an older adult,
to remain alert for the signs of financial exploitation. Signs can include
but are not limited to
• A person who becomes suddenly interested in the older
adult and/or the older adult’s finances
• Decreased contact between the older adult and their famil
and friends
• Hesitancy to sharing information with family or friends
• Missing funds from an older adult’s bank account or
missing funds or valuable items from around the home
• Unexplained transactions, transfers, or gifts given by the
older adult
Although knowing the warning signs can be extremely helpful in ending
ongoing financial exploitation, there are some preventative measures that
older adults can take to not fall victim to this form of abuse. The American
Bankers Association suggests that older adults “Shred receipts, bank
statements and unused credit card offers, never give out personal
information, including social security number, account number, or
financial information to anyone over the phone, order copies of your
credit report once a year to ensure accuracy, and build a relationship with
the people who handle your finances”. These small steps can potentially
save an older adult thousands of dollars, their homes, savings, and
heartache.
If you suspect you or an older adult you know is being financially
exploited, please call the Franklin County Office on Aging’s Adult
Protective Services at 614-525-4348. All calls to Adult Protective
Services are confidential.

Obetz Historians progressing
By Katelyn Sattler
Staff Writer
The Obetz Historians, a group seeking
to preserve the town’s history, met for the
third time and now has not one, but two
new treasurers.
Becci Thacker-Dunn was elected treasurer
in absentia at the group’s Nov. 9 meeting.
The second treasurer, elected to act as
a back-up to Thacker-Dunn, is Diane
Brooker. Initially, the group thought both
treasurers would be needed to sign checks
and other financial documents the group
might need, but then decided President
Joyce Jones Blake could act as a signatory
along with Thacker-Dunn.
The group also discussed where to house
the historical artifacts the group is beginning
to collect.

If your child knocks out a tooth
and is hysterical and in pain, a
parent’s main concern would
naturally be comforting the child,
but saving the tooth should also
be an important element in this
crisis.
First, try to find the tooth after it
has been dislodged. Do not to
touch the root area. This is the
living part of the tooth and can be
easily damaged. Time is essential.
A tooth’s life span will probably
not last more than 30 minutes
unless it is properly handled.
If the tooth cannot be replanted
immediately, and the child is
composed, have him or her place
“My bedroom is getting full,” said Jones
Blake.
The members thought potentially the
historical artifacts could be housed at the
Zion Lutheran Church, but someone heard
something else might be going in there.
They will make inquiries to get more information.
Another idea is to house Obetz’s historical
artifacts in the city’s municipal building,
“access to the building is through the
garage, so it might not be ideal,” said Jones
Blake.
The group is open to suggestions from
the community as to where to store the
artifacts.
Benson was told of a Christian publisher
who might want to publish a book on
Obetz’ history. The Obetz Historians envision
a history book
much like Groveport
or Canal Winchester
have. He made some
inquiries and said
he thinks it will cost
between $1,500 and
$2,000 if they go

the tooth under the tongue. The
environment of the mouth will
protect the tooth and the chances
that replantation will be successful
are greater. If the child cannot
keep the tooth is his or her mouth,
place the tooth in fresh milk. If
milk is not available, wrap the
tooth in plastic or foil. Do not let it
dry out and do not put it in plain
water. Then get to the dentist as
quickly as possible.
Prepared as a public service
to promote better dental health.

a club that is out there trying to make
things better, helping in any way needed.
We also want to promote a positive image
for bikers.”
While motorcycle clubs often get a bad
reputation, the Iron Brothers hope they are
helping to change that image by their service
and involvement in the community.
When they opened their doors, they invited
local residents inside and provided dinner.
On Halloween, they passed out candy to
Lockbourne’s little ghosts and goblins.
Roberts said the first thing every member
has is a responsibility in their everyday
activities to promote and reflect a good
image on the club.
“We ride responsibly, we offer help to
anyone who needs or asks for it,” said
Roberts. “We found a club house in a community
that we think we can grow with
and build our relationships. We also deliver
Thanksgiving meals every year to about
twenty families in need. We first reached
out to the community of Lockbourne for
anyone in need. We will never do anything
to tarnish the reputation of the Iron
Brothers.”
In looking to grow their membership,
Roberts welcomes interested individuals to
reach out to a members and come to a
meeting.
“This way they can meet us and see
what we are about,” said Roberts. “We
would go from there in determining if it is
something in which they are interested. We
enjoy what we do, the people we get to
meet, the new relationships, and just seeing
a smile on someone’s face.”

Obetz Historical Society.
“They give money to local organizations
for purposes of community improvement,”
he said.
Bonnie Wiley said the BWACIC has
officers and lawyers. They collect money
from TIFs to fund community improvement.
Benson and Jones Blake will have a
meeting with Obetz Administrator Rod
Davisson, and Obetz Mayor Angela Kirk to
see if the BWACIC would fund the project
and also to provide information about
buildings that could be used to house the
historical artifacts they find and also copyright
as it concerns Obetz.
Benson proposed conducting tours
through the Zion Lutheran Church and
charging people to go through as a way to
raise funds for the project.
The Obetz Historians would also like to
advertise for free at community events,
like the Zucchinifest, to reduce the amount
spent in advertising.
They hope to establish the Obetz
Historians as a 501(c)(3). Jones has sent
an email to the Secretary of State’s office to
get information on how to do that.
The next meeting of the Obetz
Historians will be Dec. 8 at 6 p.m. at the
Obetz Community Center, 1650 Obetz
Road. Anyone interested in their projects
is invited to attend.

One of my favorite plants in my backyard are my
peonies.
Each May I look forward to seeing the peonies’ big,
bright blooms of white and pink. The blooms do not
last long, but while they are in full flower they are a
sight to behold.
After the blooms fade, the peonies’ bushy leaves
remain a nice green hue all summer. As the cooler
days of autumn roll in, these once fresh green leaves
turn brown and the stems bend a bit after their season
in the sun.
I’m always a little sad when the time comes in the
fall to cut the peonies’ stems off to prepare the peonies
for their winter sleep. The peonies are a familiar friend
and it is a bit melancholy for me to see them go. But it
is one of those annual autumnal tasks that must be
done.
For decades each October, I have just used the lawn
mower to mow down the dry, brown remnants of the
glorious peonies. But this year it struck me that cutting
them this way just did not feel right. Brutally
mowing them down with the unrelenting cold, hard
whirling blade of the roaring lawn mower did not seem
like the proper way to say goodbye to my peonies

Editor’s Notebook
friends for the winter.
So this year I took a pair of
hand clippers and gingerly
snipped, close to the ground, each
individual stem, one by one, of
my long row of peonies. It felt
more quiet. It felt reverent. It felt
kinder. It felt like I was taking
proper, gentle care of my old
friends.
The peonies’ bed is vacant and
bare now as only small stubbles
remain. But throughout the coming
winter the brown ground provides
the promise of the fresh
shoots of peonies that will appear
in the early soft, spring ground and the welcoming
blooms to follow next May.
