Volunteer Firefighter Injured During Day Job

Kevin Lee, a volunteer firefighter for DeSoto Fire District #1, injured both of his legs while at work as a lease operator employed by Indigo Minerals.

Lee is a lifelong resident of Logansport. He graduated from Logansport High School. He has served since he was 15-years-old with DeSoto Fire District #1, which was formerly Logansport Volunteer Fire Dept. He is currently an Assistant Chief on the volunteer side of the department. In the past, he has served on the board of directions.

While at work on Sept. 10, Lee was descending a flight of steps from a production tank when he and felt the tendon on his left knee pop. As he firmly gripped on the handrails, he had the same thing happen to his right knee, causing him to fall down the remaining four steps to the bottom.

Using only his arms, he pulled himself a few feet to his truck. He managed to open the door and pulled himself up enough to get his phone. He called his coworker for help.

Cruisin’ in Grand Cane Presents Vehicle Showcase

Article Image Alt Text

Donald Garcie was a man with a strong sense of family and tradition. The 1978 Ford Lariat truck he entered in last year’s Cruisin’ in Grand Cane car show had small murals painted on the back quarter panels that honored his Indian heritage. The murals were painted with such detail that they were a show all by themselves. Garcie’s attention to detail, both in the artwork and the truck itself, resulted in him receiving two trophies—People’s Choice, voted on by the public, and 1970’s Decade Favorite.

Last October when Garcie came to Grand Cane for the show, he had just been released from the hospital diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. He never gave up on his faith or his family until his passing this past summer.

BackAlley Theatre to Hold Classic Favorites

Article Image Alt Text

BackAlley Theatre will be rocking this weekend as the theater kicks off its 17th season with Classic Favorites starring The Classic Band and three outstanding vocalists. The band includes Kent Gill, Donny Smith, Greg Taylor, Albert Clinton and Darrel Elliott. Vocalists for the band are Terry Sparks, Paula Callender and Stacie Hinds.

These three singers starred in Honky Tonk Angels last year’s country music hit. Sparks does a number of the Patsy Cline songs she is famous for, as well as Olivia Newton John and Anne Murray. She has a wonderful mellow country voice and has been singing since she was a child.

Of course the Patsy Cline tribute put her on the map, but she also sings praise and gospel and is very versatile singing harmony for the other band members.
