But Johnson could also stress that in 1971 when I was 22, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

https://www.newsweek.com/trumps-powerful-pitch-teamster-leaders-listen-your-members-ditch-democrats-opinion-1878581
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Union bosses are not unaware of the sea change in American politics that has been taking place in the last several years. The Democrats, once the party of the working class and zealous in defense of its interests, have long since abandoned them. Today, they represent the interests of the credentialed elites and the poor and are more interested in heeding Wall Street hedge fund managers’ pleas for trade deals that send manufacturing jobs abroad while importing more cheap labor from immigrants—whether legal or illegal—to keep the cost of doing business low. Their adherence to the woke playbook about prioritizing race over everything else has led them to think that it is fair that working class people should pay off the student loans of those with college degrees and making more money than they ever will, something that amounts to a massive regressive transfer of income from blue collar Americans to the professional laptop class.)

— Democrats and Republicans think differently about retirement. – Steve Vernon (COMMENT: My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates saved far less of their income for retirement than my wife and I did. They spent much more of their income on immediate pleasures.

I should write a book about that.)

— Evangelical Christians are fierce Israel supporters. Now they are visiting as war-time volunteers – MELANIE LIDMAN (COMMENT: My many Jewish Democrat superiors and supervisors in the federal government were liberal, that is, they were anti-conservative, that is, they were anti-Republican. If I was working for them today, they would side with Humas. My having been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, my being 100% German American, my being conservative, my being Republican, my having lived in Crete 1948-1972, and my lived in Wheaton since 1978 would make things even wore for me today.)

— Mistakes come back to haunt state Rep. Adam Niemerg in heated downstate race. Niemerg’s Republican primary opponent, Jim Acklin, also faces nasty claims in the 102nd District race. – Rich Miller (COMMENT: If you run as a Republican, the more of the following that you are, the more negative that your opponents will go against you: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Further, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that your “mistakes” will come back to haunt you.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/03/15/adam-niemerg-jim-acklin-102nd-illinois-house-republican-primary-race-election-rich-miller
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Adam Niemerg sure talks a lot, but what is he not telling you?” the ad’s announcer asked. “Well, there’s the DUI Niemerg got, more than twice the limit. And how he pleaded guilty to obscene conduct.” OK, let’s stop right there for a moment. Niemerg was busted in 2003 for DUI, speeding and possession/consumption of alcohol by a minor. He paid a fine and had to go to treatment. Then, on 4/20 (heh) of 2006, Niemerg was busted for obscene conduct. He pleaded guilty, paid a fine and was given 90 days supervision. Niemerg has not addressed the claims via his own advertising, even though “obscene conduct” can conjure up quite a large number of scenarios. Also, a lot of homeless people charged with peeing on trees end up in a heap of legal trouble, so it’s not that funny to them. The anti-Niemerg ad is also being pushed hard online, and as of last Friday afternoon, it had 232,000 YouTube views, which is more than twice the total population of a House district.)

— Parents say suburban Chicago school’s actions are insufficient after violent fight – Charlie De Mar
https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/suburban-chicago-school-safety-actions-violent-fight/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Parents at a west suburban high school rallied Wednesday night, saying several violent fights in the school have them concerned about student safety. They took their concerns to the Wheaton/Warrenville School District 200 Board Wednesday night, and district leaders told them they have made changes to address the issue. Ever since a fight in a bathroom at Wheaton Warrenville South High School two weeks ago, which led to charges, changes have been made to bathroom policy and hall pass procedures. But students and parents say the changes are simply reactive. Wearing purple – the color used to support victims of domestic violence – parents stood up for their students outside Wheaton Warrenville South. Organizers said each flag they planted on the school lawn represents a disciplinary incident that occurred last year. “The concern is that disciplinary issues aren’t being handled appropriately,” said parent Amy Erkenswick. “The concern is we don’t have great communication with our school leadership.” “Safety is the number one goal,” said parent Brooke Gennaro. The issue came to a tipping point after a student was injured in a fight in a high school bathroom on Feb. 28. Video of the incident was posted online. “I want to know – how did we get to a place where our kids disregard their fellow students and resort to violence?” parent Rachel Padron said at the school board meeting. Since the brutal attack, two students have been criminally charged as minors. There have also been changes to high school bathroom policies – including more supervision – but students who spoke at the school board meeting Wednesday said the adjustments do not address the violence. “Locking down bathrooms doesn’t curb situations that lead to violence, or the violence itself,” said senior Nicolas Graham. “Rather, it just stops ordinary students from going to the bathroom.” “I think they were very reactive, and what we would like to see is a more proactive approach,” added Erkenswick after the meeting. “I don’t think limited bathrooms is reasonable or sustainable solution.” Meanwhile at the school board meeting, surrounded by his family, eighth-grade student Tyler Anderson shared his experience of being physically disciplined by a coach and teacher at the school. The Andersons said the teacher is still with the district. “I don’t know why he thought he needed to use his hands to discipline me,” Tyler said. “Our intent is to come tonight with hearts that are sad, and illuminate these policies,” added his mother, Lisa Anderson, “because if we don’t speak, things aren’t going to change,” Leaders at the high school started the night highlighting the positives of the school and its students. Consistent with policy, the school board did not respond to any of the public comments made Wednesday night.)

WHEATON PATCH
— ‘Vaping, Drugs, Countless Fights’: D200 Parents, Students Speak Out. A large crowd gathered at Wednesday’s board meeting to speak out about what many say is an ongoing problem with violence in the district. – Lisa Marie Farver
https://patch.com/illinois/wheaton/vaping-drugs-countless-fights-d200-parents-students-speak-out
(FROM THE ARTICLE: More than a dozen parents and students took to the podium at Wednesday’s District 200 board of education meeting to share their concerns about student safety and transparency within the district after reports of violence in bathrooms at Wheaton Warrenville South High School. Before the meeting, a group of parents gathered outside the school holding signs with phrases that included, “We are speaking. Listen!” and “Safe Schools, Strong Communities.” Amy Erkenswick, one of the District 200 parents who organized the rally, told Patch she and other parents would like to see “more communication, more transparency” from the district, along with a “consistent [disciplinary and safety] structure across the district.” The rally and outcry for change was prompted by a Feb. 28 fight at Wheaton Warrenville South High School that left a teen boy unconscious. His mother told Patch in early March that he had a “concussion and contusions” after the incident. Outside the school, the group had also planted 270 purple flags, which they said represented 270 disciplinary actions (suspensions and expulsions) that were reported at Wheaton Warrenville South in 2023. At Wednesday’s meeting, some speakers addressed safety concerns related to the fight, while others shared their own stories. Some of these stories included claims of violence and harassment at other District 200 schools. . .Padron said, “with stall doors missing, locks destroyed as well as vaping, drugs and countless fights.” Parent Brook Gennaro said the district’s “lack of accountability and leadership breeds dangerous complacency.” Daneel Gonzales, a district parent and school aide, mentioned the email Wheaton Warrenville South Principal Lorie Campos shared with parents after the Feb. 28 fight. In the email, Campos mentioned “physical altercations” between students and urged parents “not assume that rumors concerning student injuries are accurate.” She said the incidents have been “targeted.” Gonzales said she was unsure whether she should send her son to school, as she was unclear whether the rumor was a reference to physical violence or a “potential school shooting.” Meanwhile, some parents and students have told Patch that there have been unprovoked attacks throughout the district. Gonzales said she has seen “staff members who get physical.” She added, “It’s disappointing…my concerns that I’ve voiced… I don’t know where they go.”)

https://townhall.com/columnists/print/2636473
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans’ embrace of “diversity” has been an unmitigated disaster, as illustrated most recently by Sen. Katie Britt, whose response to President Biden’s State of the Union address came with a double dose of diversity. Why was this first-term senator chosen? To boost her reelection chances? She’s from the reddest state in the Union, won her last election by 30 points, and her term doesn’t end until 2026. Because she’s an amazing public speaker? Quite obviously, it wasn’t that. She gave the response because she’s not a white male. The last time Republicans picked a white man to give the GOP response was in 2012, when Gov. Mitch Daniels gave a great speech, despite the glaring absence of any blubbering over the unique suffering of women and minorities. Which brings us to Katie. Asked to give the GOP response, she delivered it from her kitchen table because she’s a mom just like you, suburban woman who will never vote Republican. She not only was “diverse” herself, but she made sure to drag a minority into her argument against Biden’s border policy, which is to have no border. An open border, Britt told us, is bad for the illegals. This was in accordance with the modern rule of etiquette requiring that no policy be criticized unless it can be shown that it harms someone other than whites, men or Americans. Thus, for example, affirmative action has been actively screwing white people out of college admissions, jobs and promotions since at least 1970. (Allan Bakke found this out in 1973, when he was rejected from the University of California, Davis, medical school in order to make way for hilariously less-qualified minorities.) Even after decades of this open, egregious race discrimination, Republicans are terrified of stating the obvious: Discriminating against white people is unfair to white people. Instead, the preferred argument is: “It’s not good for black people, either!” Perhaps, but they’re not complaining. And we’re still stuck with the unfairness to whites. It is a remarkable fact that, after more than half a century of rank race discrimination against whites, the Supreme Court finally decided affirmative action was unconstitutional only after it was shown that racial preferences harm Asians. Similarly, Britt’s argument against the Biden policy of dragging millions of illegal aliens into our country was not that it’s unfair to Americans, although it’s their home that’s being wrecked. No, it was that our nonexistent border is bad for Mexicans. Thus, Britt said: “I spoke to a woman who shared her story with me. She had been sex-trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12. She told me not just that she was raped every day, but how many times a day she was raped. “The cartels put her on a mattress in a shoebox of a room, and they sent men through that door, over and over again, for hours and hours on end. “We wouldn’t be OK with this happening in a third world country. This is the United States of America, and it’s past time we start acting like it.” Democrats are permanently destroying the greatest country on Earth — which happens to be where we live — but Rosalita’s life has gone from a negative 9, living in Mexico, to a negative 10 being human-trafficked. As with affirmative action, the GOP can only attack illegal immigration by saying it’s bad for the illegal immigrants, who apparently are driven by some invisible force to stream into our country. Their illegal behavior is something we’re doing to them. Help! Someone keeps burning down my house! GOP: Oh my gosh — was the arsonist hurt? In producing a diverse person to make her case, Britt botched the story six ways from Sunday. As we now know, the serial rapes didn’t happen in this country, but in Mexico. Even if they had occurred here, who did Britt imagine was doing the raping? As described in my book “Adios, America!”, child rape is rife in Latin America. It’s their culture, having nothing to do with our enticing open border. My idea: Let’s not let that rape culture come here. The rapes also didn’t happen under Biden, but under President George W. Bush. So that was great. Britt’s bleating for a diverse person gave Democrats something to talk about other than the thousands of American lives snuffed out by illegals at a rate of about 40 a week. Britt could have talked about 27-year-old Washington State Trooper Christopher Gadd, killed days before the SOTU by an illegal in a “sanctuary state”; 10-year-old A.J. Wise, killed while walking home from school last month by an illegal alien hit-and-run driver in Midland, Texas; Travis Wolf, killed in Missouri by a boozed-up illegal in December — the night before Travis’ 12th birthday; Diane Hill Luckett, mother of three, who died in March of last year after being smashed into by a drunk illegal alien with a string of criminal convictions to his name (and zero deportations); or David Breaux and Karim Abou Najm, stabbed to death by an illegal alien on a killing spree in Davis, California, last April. Half of the murdered Americans I just listed were black. But when it comes to immigration, black Americans might as well be white men. “Illegal immigrant” trumps “American” because diversity is our greatest strength.)

The research also revealed that it takes the most money to live comfortably as a single person in New York City, requiring $66.62 in hourly wages, or an annual salary of $138,570. In six cities, a family must make over $300k to raise two kids comfortably.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: All are longtime Republicans who backed Nikki Haley in her presidential bid. All held leadership positions in her campaign. And all three are deeply skeptical of Donald Trump, or outright opposed to him. MacGovern won’t vote for Trump. Giles doesn’t see herself supporting Trump this time after casting ballots for him twice. While Moore – also a two-time Trump voter – said she is leaning against backing him again, calling him a “self-serving narcissistic and a bully and he is not the role model I want for my children and grandchildren.” Now that Haley has exited the GOP presidential primary on the heels of big losses on Super Tuesday, attention is turning to Trump’s general election campaign and whether he can unite the GOP behind him to take on President Joe Biden. Haley demonstrated in state after state that a significant minority of primary voters wanted a candidate other than Trump, and the question is whether they will accept the polarizing former president as their nominee. The answer for some is an emphatic no. “I could never vote for Donald Trump,” MacGovern said.)

LOCAL 3 NEWS
— A judge issued a new order that has allowed four candidates in Catoosa County to re-qualify for the May 21 ballot through the election commission. This is in response to the Catoosa County GOP continuing to deny those candidates a spot on the republican primary ballot. “If you want people to continue believing in the ability of the Republican party, then you have to make sure that they are voting in a way that’s consistent with our platform,” said Georgia Republican Assembly President Nathaniel Darnell. (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The RNC and Republican state, county, township, and ward party organizations should stop candidates from running as Republicans if they reject planks in the Republican Party platform. Far too many candidates who have run as Republicans on ballots in my precinct reject far too many planks in the Republican Party platform. Most commonly, they reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.)

To give preference to those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time is to discriminate against those who are conservative, White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.)

Worse yet, far too many of them rather see Democrats elected than Republicans who they did not support in primary elections. Even worse yet, far too many of them destroy those who did not support their candidates in primary elections.)

HAGERTY
— This is a detailed article about Frank Pope and his 1972 Corvette. We both bought new Corvettes in October of 1971; Pope was 26 and I was 23. Pope lived in Melrose Park; I lived in Crete. Pope paid for his Corvette with money he earned as a hairstylist. I paid for my Corvette with money I earned collecting delinquent taxes for IRS in Harvey and pumping gasoline part-time for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. Pope retired 12 years ago; I retired 26 years ago. Pope has made many modifications to his Corvette; I have made virtually none to mine. Pope has driven his Corvette 42,000 miles; I have driven mine only 5,000 miles. Pope and I are still married.
https://www.hagerty.com/media/car-profiles/original-owner-a-trendy-hairstyle-helped-this-chicago-area-corvette-buff-buy-a-72-ls5-coupe-in-cash/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Frank Pope could barely contain his joy upon arriving at Celozzi-Ettleson Chevrolet in Elmhurst, Illinois, with his girlfriend, Joanne. He’d driven about five miles from his Melrose Park home to watch his new Targa Blue 1972 Corvette roll off the auto carrier. It was October 15, 1971, a day Pope had been anxiously awaiting since ordering the car eight weeks before. With Joanne by his side, he excitedly pointed to the car. “Here I am, this 26-year-old guy, with my heart pounding,” Pope recalled for Hagerty. “It was the only one on the trailer with the big-block hood. I said to Joanne, ‘Do you see the difference from the other Corvettes on there?’ She said, ‘No.’ I said, ‘Look at that hood. It’s a big-block.’ But I might as well have been speaking a different language. I told her, ‘I will never sell this car,’ and she gave me a look like she was thinking, ‘This guy must be nuts. He’s never going to ask me to marry him.’ But I did. We got engaged on Valentine’s Day 1972, and we’re still married.” Pope still has the Corvette, too, now with just 42,000 miles and still getting out for fun. Over the years, he added engine modifications while keeping the exterior and interior mostly stock. The blue Corvette fulfilled a long-time dream for the young man who’d learned his trade in barber college. . .He later left the hair styling business and became an investigator for the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Cook County. “I retired 12 years ago. I was a deputy sheriff.”)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The End of Assimilation – Robert Weissberg
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/03/the_end_of_assimilation.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The deeper problem is that nearly all illegals arrive embracing values against core American principles. They are “aliens” both legally and in terms of our political culture. Modern immigration is wholly unlike that of the earliest days, when most immigrants were of English ancestry and quickly integrated into society. Today, by contrast, those flooding into the United States arrive from almost every nation on the planet, including places like El Salvador, Kazakhstan, India, Ghana, China, Syria, Cuba, and Vietnam. Those newly arrived Muslims clustering in places like Dearborn, Mich. have altered the political landscape thanks to their vociferous support for Hamas, and this new voice may be a harbinger of future Balkanization. No precise definition of America’s political culture exists, but central is patriotism — subordinating all loyalties to national identity. As Teddy Roosevelt put it in 1907, “there can be no divided allegiance here. … We have room for but one flag, the American flag. … We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language … and we have room for but one sole loyalty, and that is a loyalty to the American people.” Further add the values explicitly embedded in the Constitution: the rule of law; the rights of free speech and freedom of religion; freedom from government tyranny; the primacy of individual, not group rights and similar rights vital to ordered liberty. Further add elections, not violence, to settle disputes. To be sure, this catalogue can be murky, and exceptions exist, but at their core, “American political values” are well understood. Alas, these values are exceedingly rare in third-world countries, the overwhelming source of today’s illegals.)
— Biden administration has new term for illegal aliens – Eric Utter (COMMENT: When were you a newcomer and for how long were you treated as one? I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates never stopped treating me like I was a newcomer, that is, like I lacked relevant work experience, education, professional certifications and licenses, etc. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the fact a) that what I did working for IRS for almost 9 years was very similar to what I did for GAO, b) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) that I became a licensed CPA in 1981. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.)

I had completed only 3 graduate evening business courses at Loyola when I was promoted in 1972, 7 in 1973, and 11 in 1974. But in my defense, I did earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, IRS would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service (currently $191,900/year) before I was 40 in 1988.)

— Pritzker, Democratic lawmakers stress IVF treatment protected in Illinois – Mike Miletich (COMMENT: To demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me as being a disgusting rich selfish DINK (dual income, no kids) who did not want children, my Democrat GAO superiors stressed that my wife and I gave up trying to have children without trying IVF, that we did not adopt, and that we did not become foster parents. Further, they strongly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if we had married earlier and had children like they did, I would not have been able to earn a) three job related master’s degrees, b) six job-related professional certifications, or c) a job-related professional license. Further, they strongly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about our efforts to have children. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have sued them.)

— All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government (GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969), they gave preference big time to their employees who were Democrat, and especially to those who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

PEW RESEARCH
— Who Are You? The Art and Science of Measuring Identity – SCOTT KEETER, ANNA BROWN AND DANA POPKY (COMMEMT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who use their targets’ demographics against their targets the most. I would focus on those who target those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. I would focus on those who target those who share their own demographics to curry favor with those who do not share their demographics.)
https://www.pewresearch.org/methods/2024/02/12/who-are-you-the-art-and-science-of-measuring-identity/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our main religion question asks respondents to choose from 11 groups that encompass 97% of the U.S. public: eight religious groups and three categories of people who don’t affiliate with a religion. Other, less common faiths are measured by respondents writing in their answer. Our questions have evolved in response to a rise in the share of Americans who do not identify with any religion and to the growing diversity in the country’s population. (Chapter 1) Measuring income is challenging because it is both sensitive and sometimes difficult for respondents to estimate. We ask for a person’s “total family income” the previous calendar year from all sources before taxes, in part because that may correspond roughly to what a family computed for filing income taxes. To reduce the burden, we present ranges (e.g., “$30,000 to less than $40,000”) rather than asking for a specific number. (Chapter 2) We ask about political party affiliation using a two-part question. People who initially identify as an independent or “something else” (instead of as a Republican or Democrat) and those who refuse to answer receive a follow-up question asking whether they lean more to the Republican Party or the Democratic Party. In many of their attitudes and behaviors, those who only lean to a party greatly resemble those who identify with it. (Chapter 3) Our gender question tries to use terminology that is easily understood. It asks, “Do you describe yourself as a man, a woman or in some other way?” Amid national conversation on the subjects, gender and sexual orientation are topics on the cutting edge of survey measurement. (Chapter 4) In part because we use U.S. Census Bureau estimates to statistically adjust our data, we ask about race and Hispanic ethnicity separately, just as the census does. People can select all races that apply to them. In the future, the census may combine race and ethnicity into one question. (Chapter 5) A person’s age tells us both where they fall in the life span, indicating what social roles and responsibilities they may have, and what era or generation they belong to, which may tell us what events in history had an effect on their political or social thinking. We typically ask people to report just the year of their birth, which is less intrusive than their exact date of birth. (Chapter 6)

— The myth of meritocracy – Yvonne Abraham (COMMENT: What are your successes in life? What do your critics/opponents attribute your successes in life to? My critics/opponents attribute my successes in life to my benefitting tremendously from discrimination against those who are minority, female, younger, veteran, unmarried, parents, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, I stress that neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant on the east side of Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school and never worked outside of the home until after my father died. Because of the aforesaid, I took college preparatory courses in high school. I got and ACT score of 24. I graduated in the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class. I worked my way through college. I earned a bachelor’s degree and three master’s degrees. I earned six professional certifications. I earned a professional license. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents are/were rich. Who bought them cars. Who paid for their college expenses. Who got them good jobs.)

FORBES
— During the last 8 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office, they had my Black subordinate lead the office’s big annual Black History Month events. In September of 1997, they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and gave my Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office.

PBS
— A quarter of United Methodist churches in U.S. have left during split (COMMENT: In 1961, when I was 13 years old and in 8th grade at Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete ( https://www.trinitycrete.org/ and https://ilhs.org/ ), the church’s split had a tremendous impact on me. The pastor succeeded in dumping the Missouri Synod for the Wisconsin Synod. My father was one of the Church Elders who led an unsuccessful fight to stay with the Missouri Synod. To stay with the Missouri Synod, my parents transferred to Hope Lutheran in Park Forest. Since 1847, all my ancestors had always been Missouri Synod Lutheran. On my father’s side, they all had all graduated from Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete. But in 1962, I graduated from a newly formed extremely small 8th grade at Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest. The church split created many divisions between those who stayed with the Missouri Synod and those who joined the Wisconsin Synod. The split ended big annual family reunions in Crete and Grant Park that had been organized by both my father’s and mother’s parents.)
