Community vision carries sculpture park through 20-year evolution in Gibsonburg
Gibsonburg is on the way to nowhere ... except Gibsonburg. Vehicles do not drive through the northwest Ohio village to get to somewhere else. It is its own destination. Countyline grain elevators dominate the village's skyline just as the Willis Tower, once called the Sears Tower, reigns over Chicago. That city of 2.6 million may have a rowdy Navy Pier but the 2.4 thousand people in Gibsonburg have a sculpture park that just won't quit. “You have to be going to Gibsonburg to get to Gibsonburg,” said James Havens, from his sculpture studio set along a quarry. Metal images dot the grounds as a mini-version of Sculpture in the Village, created in 2005 at Williams Park. In fact, his pieces served as the inspiration for that public space.

U.S. Supreme Court sides with Henry County jeweler
NAPOLEON — The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of a Henry County jeweler’s claim that police can be sued for filing an unsubstantiated charge leading to arrest even if other charges in the same case were deemed appropriate for prosecution. By a 6-3 vote, the nation’s high court overturned a ruling from the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati and found that because a felony money-laundering charge may have been the reason Jascha Chiaverini spent nearly four days in the Henry County jail, he had the right to sue the Napoleon Police Department, several of its officers, the...

'He's been stolen': Family finds support dealing with dad's dementia
While many fondly reminisce about their father teaching them to drive, quite the opposite, high school Principal Taylor Gerhardt recently reflected on the day he had to tell his dad he could no longer drive. “He would get in his truck and just go, and no one knew where he was,” Mr. Gerhardt said of his dad, Dan, 77, who was diagnosed with dementia. One of the most difficult experiences he had with his dad was convincing him to relinquish his driving privileges. “I made him come with me to a licensed, trained individual through the licensing bureau. There's a way to get a diagnosis as far as if you are able to drive,” he said. “He always seemed to listen to the advice of officials and really, this was the only way we could get Dad to not sneak the car keys and get out.”
