Husbands of wives with dementia unite for support
By Shelley Grieshop
CELINA - Elden Houts slowly moved a spoonful of vegetables toward his wife's lips, waiting patiently for her mouth to open.
"There you go," the 84-year-old retired banker said with a satisfied grin as she eventually swallowed the food.
Marjorie Houts, the woman he promised 63 years ago to love and cherish for a lifetime, is no longer the vibrant mother and piano teacher of years ago. She has Alzheimer's disease and has lost her vision. [More]

MINSTER - Last weekend saw Coldwater defeat Marion Local at home by making a 43-yard field goal in the final seconds of the game. This week the Minster Wildcats decided to give it a try with placekicker Jason Schultz - his jaw still wired shut from being broken three weeks ago. He drove the 43-yarder straight down the middle with plenty to spare to secure a 24-21 win over the St. Henry Redskins. [More]
