Edgar Earl
(Porky) McVay, 88, longtime Mayor of the Village of Stafford, passed away April
1, 2014 in the Ross Heart Center at the Ohio State University Hospital,
Columbus, OH. He was born in Stafford, on February 20, 1927, a son of the late
Frank Earl and Edith Robinson McVay.
Edgar was
a lifetime resident of Stafford.
Growing up, he assisted his parents with McVay Brothers General Store
and Mill at the Stafford location; the other store was in Harriettsville,
OH. He served as assistant postmaster
while his mother was postmaster, assisted with the family sheep farm operation
on Factory Hollow Road, operated a radio and television sales and service
making house calls, owned and operated school buses for the local school system
for many years. He was an electrician/instrument repairman at the Olin
Mathieson Aluminum Facility, Hannibal, for 28 years, a job he thoroughly
enjoyed. He was elected and started serving as village Mayor on January 1,
1958.
Why the
nickname “Porky”? When Edgar was a
little boy, his mother, Edith, and sister, Georgia, who was 14 years older were
always complaining that his hair was not combed to their liking. One day, while they were away shopping,
Edgar talked his brother-in-law Franklin Hanson, a barber in the Veteran Barber
Shop operated by Franklin Hanson and Everett (Pickle) Briggs on Church Street
in Woodsfield, into giving him a butch hair cut. When the ladies returned, their frustration from his lack of
proper grooming turned to anger. But
they eventually got over it. A few days later, his cousin Sam Robinson came
into the store, noticed the drastic change, picked Edgar up by the heels and
while vigorously rubbing his head said, “just like a porcupine”, thus the
nickname “Porky” that lasted his lifetime.
He
graduated from the Stafford High School in 1945, excelled in chemistry and
mathematics, was a basketball star, played on the softball team and
participated in class plays and many other activities. Edgar never lost his passion for
sports. He was especially interested
and loved to watch Ohio State football and basketball on TV.
After
graduation, about 1957, he arranged a successful class picnic at the Stafford
Park and again for their 50th celebration at Skyvue High School.
Through the years, he enjoyed attending the school
reunions, with Edgar and Irma Highman serving as Co-Chairpersons and Secretary-Treasurer
of the Franklin Rural, Stafford village and Skyvue High School annual reunions
and carry-in dinner meetings for eight years, 2006-2013. In addition, formal education included
Associate degrees in radio and television at DeVry University. He also graduated from the Hobart School of
Welding, Troy, OH.
He
enlisted in October 1944 and entered the Army Air Corps after graduation from
high school in June 1945. He had basic training,
attended Flight Service School then assigned and served with the 19th Troop
Carrier Squadron in the Pacific Theatre.
While in service, lasting friendships were made, resulting in yearly
reunions as well as other informal meetings at various locations in the USA.
After returning from the service, he played softball
and baseball with other returning veterans with Charlie LaCroix serving as
manager. They played various teams in
the area along with a game or two at the prison in Moundsville, WV. They were considered professional as they
were compensated $5.00 each per game.
During
that time, Edgar became interested in motorcycles, purchasing a new Harley, one
of the first in the county. He seldom
rode alone. With R.J. Lawley riding on
the buddy seat, Charley McConnell on the luggage carrier and Edgar at the
controls, they would cruise the countryside on weekend afternoons. Edgar also
enjoyed spending time with other good friends, including John Baker and Donald
Lafferre.
Edgar
received his private pilot’s license when he was a young man. His love for flying never ceased. While in the service he joined a flying
club. Then in his middle 20s he
purchased a yellow Vagabond airplane, kept it for a while then upgraded to
Cessna 172s, owning several through the years. The last was a red and white
Cessna 172 Skyhawk. He sold the
airplane in September 2014.
He had
many happy memories of flying along with other local pilots Raymond Petty,
Claude Smith, Al Reed and Harold Stegner traveling to air shows, both in and
out of state, flying and visiting with pilots at other airports while enjoying
the scenery along the way.
Family and
special friend, Irma Highman also enjoyed short flights as well as vacations,
especially when time was a factor.
Through
the years, he traveled to Canada, Mexico, Hawaii and to many, perhaps all of
the states in the U.S.
Before the
new airport was constructed, Edgar hangared his plane and flew from the old
airport, where the health care facilities are located. Pilots owned their own hangars. He would assist with mowing the sod runway,
using his own Wheel Horse riding tractor mower, when returning from his shift
at the aluminum plant, as resources for maintenance were limited at that time.
During the
winter when the road to the old facility was impassible to automobile travel,
he would walk the hill to check on his plane and fly, weather permitting.
He was a
member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) and life member of
the Air Force Association. Edgar was currently serving on the Monroe County
Airport Authority. He was appointed by
the County Commissioners when the new airport was constructed in 1968, having
served continuously since that time. He
considered the airport an invaluable asset to the county and was always
available to assist in any way, as long as his health permitted.
Edgar
served continuously as mayor of the Village of Stafford for 57 years. Notable accomplishments during that time
included writing and receiving grants for numerous paving projects in the
village as well as requiring the restoration in late 2014 of pavement damaged
by heavy equipment traveling the streets for deep oil and gas drilling in the
area. In recent years he led the effort
to save the post office from leaving the village, giving generously his time
and resources.
In 1984 Edgar became an advocate for the Monroe County
Park District. He and a few other civic
minded people from the community led a delegation to Columbus in an effort to
transfer ownership of the state park in Stafford to the Monroe County Park
District for restoration. The State had
damaged and closed the park, which had been a part of the farm owned and
operated many years before by Hugh Robinson, Edgar’s maternal great-grandfather. Their persistence was rewarded with a
beautiful facility, part of the Monroe County Park District system, available
to the general public for family picnics and reunions as well as a rest stop to
tourists traveling through the area.
When Edgar
was a young man, he became a member of the Stafford Church of Christ, having
attended the Stafford Methodist Church with family while growing up.
Like his
father, Frank, Edgar was interested and involved in Free and Accepted
Masonry. He was a member of Stafford
Lodge 300 F&AM for 67 years, served as Worshipful Master in 1953, also
served as Senior Deacon, Junior Deacon and Chaplain; a 32nd Degree Mason,
Scottish Rite, with lifetime membership in at the Valley of Cambridge since
1957; a member of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Ohio.
He was a
lifetime member of the American Legion Post 768 since returning from military
service, a member of School Employee Retirees of Ohio, member of AARP since
1986 and member of Huffman Grange. He
was formerly a member of the Knights of Pythias, Washington County, Citizens
Band Radio Club and Local 5760. Edgar
also served as a 4-H advisor.
On
December 7, 1952 he started dating Irma L. Highman, a young lady from the
Graysville, area he met a few evenings earlier. While Irma, an employee of the United States Department of
Agriculture, Agricultural Stabilization Service, located in the Monroe County
Courthouse at the time, and Edgar lived a short distance apart, they had never
met. Through the years when close
friends asked about how they met, Edgar always told how he and Gene Lafferre
were having a snack at the counter in Bayes Restaurant, Woodsfield, when Irma
walked in wearing a tan knit dress, fur coat and high heels. He took one look and said, “I’m going to
date that girl”. He did and nearly 63
years later she remains “The Love of His Life”.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death
by a sister Georgia McVay Hanson, brother-in-law Franklin Hanson and an infant
sister Mary Maxine.
Survivors whom
Edgar considered “his family” include special friend Irma L. Highman of
Woodsfield, OH, her brother, Eric of the Graysville, OH area, his daughter
Stephanie, her husband Paul Rice, Jr, their daughter, Katie Renee, son Samuel
Edward of Morgantown, WV; also, Eric’s daughter Nichole Highman (Thomas Ray)
and their son Maxton Eric of Westerville, OH.
Survivors also include several cousins, good caring neighbors and many

A home

Retired
Airman Timothy Dwane Morton, age 59, passed away May 28th, 2014 at Oviedo,
Florida surrounded by his family when our Lord called this hero home.
Tim was
the son of Geraldine R. Piatt and the late Duane L. Morton. He was born on
January 21st, 1955. He was the oldest son and pride of his family.
Tim is
survived by his wife of 40 years, Carol Ann Mench Morton. Their children are
Timothy David Morton of
Oviedo, Florida and Jenifer Alene Morton (Christopher)
Bunty of Greenville, South Carolina.
Tim was
the brother of Norene E. (Elvin) Ewers, Woodsfield, Ohio. Jeffrey A. Morton,
Elm Grove, West Virginia. Sally L.
Parrino, Sun City, Arizona. Reginald J. Morton, Woodsfield, Ohio, and
Deanna L. (Mark) Miller, Woodsfield,

Tim was
preceded in death by his father Duane Leroy Morton and Step Father Howard L.

Tim was
a retired Air force Airman of the 6985th Airborne division. He served his
country with pride. He enlisted in the Air Force before he graduated from

After
Tim’s retirement from the Air force he was employed by our government through
Raytheon, a national defense company located in Oviedo Florida. Tim was a true
Patriot and love to tell stories of his adventures. Tim traveled the world and
loved defending our freedom. He was loved and respected by everyone he met.
Tim was
honored and laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery, followed by a
gathering of his family and friends. Tom Giroir, a very close friend and fellow
Airman gave his Eulogy. "A wisely and poignantly person taught me years
ago that the person who has passed would not want us to be sad. No, instead they would want us to be happy
for them! They would ask us to
celebrate for them. They would ask us
to celebrate all that they have contributed to the rest of us before their
passing. I have no doubt, none, that,
Tim would agree and he would probably be buying the first round to that! And, of course, Tim would remark. Tim would
encourage us. Come on folks, let's celebrate all the good times we had and
shared! To Carol and family, as mournful as today is, let's do just that! Let's celebrate all the excitement and positive
energy that Tim brought into our lives."

Oldemeyer,
Donald LeRoy Oldemeyer

1924 ~ 2015
Donald
LeRoy Oldemeyer died late in the evening of June 4, 2015. He is survived by his
wife, Eileen; son, Neal Oldemeyer (wife, Nancy); and daughter, Donna Daniels
(husband, Rodger). Don also has seven grandchildren: Lacey Oldemeyer and
Briana* Le Blanc (husband, Brent); Spencer, Bryce and Kyle Oldemeyer; and Craig
and Rick Daniels. He lived long enough to hold his great grandson Ethan Le
Blanc last Christmas. Beverly Decker is his remaining sibling. He was preceded
in death by his brother, Robert Oldemeyer, and his son, Keith Oldemeyer (wife,
Barbara), who passed away from cancer in 2008.
Don was
born November 7, 1924, in Brush, Colorado to Clarence L. and Gayle E.
Oldemeyer. He spent his youth on the family farm and attended the Brush
schools. After graduating from high school he enrolled at Colorado A & M
(now Colorado State University). His schooling was interrupted by World War II
when he spent 32 months in the U.S. Army including time in Europe with the 87th
Infantry Division, which fought in the Battle of the Bulge.
After being discharged from the Army, Don
returned to college and graduated in December 1948 with a B.S. degree in
Agronomy. On Sept. 12, 1948, he and Eileen Blankenship were married in Ft.
Collins, Colorado. Together they drove to Pennsylvania where Don attended
Pennsylvania State College and received his Ph.D. in Agronomy.
His
first job was with the Irrigation Experiment Station at Prosser, Washington as
an assistant agronomist. In June 1954 he accepted a job with the Amalgamated
Sugar Company at Nyssa, Oregon where he spent the remainder of his professional
career focused on sugar beet research, particularly beet seed development. He
was very active in the sugar beet industry. A highlight of his career was when
he was awarded an Honorary Membership in the American Society of Sugar Beet
Technologists along with his brother at the February 1991 biennial meeting.
Don was
active in the Nyssa United Methodist Church, serving in several different
positions. He was also involved in the Nyssa Lions Club for many years. He
served six years on the Nyssa City Council and served as mayor from 1975 to
1976.
Don's
hobbies were camping, bird hunting and fishing. He was particularly fond of chukar
hunting until the hills became too steep to climb. Rose growing was his
favorite part of gardening, while taking pride in his beautiful green lawn.
For
those who knew and worked with Don closely, it should be no surprise that he
wrote the comments above. Always humble, meticulous and ever-thoughtful, he
even wanted his passing to be as easy as possible for those he left behind. The
family does want you to know that he was an inspiration to us all. He left a
legacy of professional excellence, public service, and commitment to friends
and family. His love and respect for the great outdoors has filtered throughout
his children and grandchildren in their choices for recreation and occupation.
Mostly, we want you to know that he loved deeply, particularly his wife,
Eileen, to whom he was married for nearly 67 years.
The
family would like to thank the caregivers from Advanced Home Health Care and
Spring Creek Assisted Living for the wonderful care they have given Don over
the last several years and also those from Harrison's Hope Hospice that helped
guide us through the last few months.
Funeral
services will be held Thursday, June 11, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. at Summers Funeral
Home, Ustick Chapel, 3629 E. Ustick Rd., Meridian, ID 83646. A brief graveside
