Gladwin man dies from injuries sustained in Dec. 3,
mishap
A 76-year-old Gladwin man who was seriously injured
in a 2-car mishap earlier last month died last Tuesday at MidMichian Regional
Medical Center in Midland. Harold Leroy Aleshire has been in the coronary care
unit at MRMC since he was injured in the accident on M-61 near Lakeview Dr. in
Hay Township.
Gladwin State Police said Aleshire was traveling
east on M-61 about 8:15" a.m. on Dec. 3, when he attempted a left turn
onto Lakeview Dr. and struck a westbound vehicle driven by Craig Potts of
Standish. Aleshire received emergency treatment at MRMC-Gladwin and was
transferred to Midland, where he was admitted for treatment of serious internal
injuries, authorities said.
Aleshire became the 9th traffic related fatality in
the county this year and the 5th within the past 3
months. His obituary appears on page 2. Fatalities
resulting from traffic accidents in Gladwin County increased dramatically in
1990 from the previous year. But local law enforcement authorities say it's
hard to draw conclusions in the rising
number of traffic deaths.

county as the result of motor vehicle accidents
during 1990, compared with 1 traffic fatality the previous year. That's an
increase of 800 percent. Nine traffic deaths is the most in the county since 1984,
when 9 people died in car crashes, also. Statewide, traffic fatalities
increased this year from the 1989 totals. Holiday weekend fatalities were also
higher in 1990. However, significant reductions in highway fatalities have been
recorded since Operation Care, a traffic safety program, was launched by police
and volunteer agencies in 1977.
The State Police blamed the increase on more
driving, but also said drinking and driving and the
failure by many to use seat belts contributed
heavily to the death toll in 1990. However, local police officers say it's
tough to draw conclusions to the county's large number of fatalities last year.
Prior to 1989, there was 2 traffic deaths in 1988 and 5 in 1987. Gladwin County

man."

ARTHUR CORNELL (14 MAY 1927 - 2 JULY 1961) - New Addition Lot
# 111.
KILLED
IN HOLIDAY CRASH
A Sage Township
man lost his life early Sunday morning when he was thrown out of his car and it
rolled on top of him following a collision on M-61 east of Gladwin. Killed in
the crash was Charles Arthur Cornell, 34, father of four children, Sheriff's
officers said Cornell's vechicle was struck in the rear by one driven by
Linwood Clark, 25, of Gladwin. They said Cornell apparently lost control of his
vehicle after the collision, and it went into the ditch and rolled over.
Cornell was tossed out and his car turned over and came to rest with all four
wheels in the air, pinning him underneath.
Riding with Cornell were Mr. and Mrs. Clyde
Wheeler, who escaped with severe bruises, Mrs Wheeler told officers she was
also thrown from the car and that she pulled her husband to safety through a
broken window and tried to aid Cornell. They were examined at the Gladwin Hospital and released. Mrs. Wheeler
suffered lacerations and bruises to her leg and shoulder and Wheeler chest
injuries.
Motorists and nearby residents arriving at
the scene tried to push and roll the car over to free Cornell and a car was
also used but the effort failed. The rescuers were driven back when the smashed
vehicle burst into flames and halted further attempts. An autopsy was held Sunday
to determine the cause of death. Coroner Gerald Miner said the examination
indicated the victim died of suffocation from the weight of the car and
inhalation of smoke. Death apparently came swiftly, he said. The Conservation
department's fire truck was called to extinguish the blaze before a wrecker
could pull the car over.
Officers said, Clark
told them he was following the Cornell car and suddenly saw the light of a car
approaching on the wrong side of the highway. He said he hit his brakes and
pulled his car to the right at the same time Cornell appartently saw it and
attempted to brake his vehicle. He said his car struck the Cornell automobile
on the right rear corner with its left front corner and apparently caused it to
careen out of control. Clark and his passenger, James Hinkley, received only
minor injuries.
A lifetime county resident, Charles Arthur
Cornell was born in Beaverton on May
14, 1927, and was married to the former Miss Dorothy Willford on July 4, 1945,
in Beaverton. He had been employed as
a crane operator for Cornell Construction and Ernest Korkoske, and spent two
years in the armed services.

child stepped into a deep hole and disappeared. Her little companions went to
her rescue out were unable to aid her, then gave the alarm. Marlin Methner, a
small boy, hearing the alarm plunged in and brought her to the surface, but was
unable to bring her to shore on account of the drowning girl fowling him
several times which nearly cost him his life.

the scene of the accident, and the hole was dragged. The body was recovered
after an hour's diligent work and taken to her parent's home. All efforts of

they were fishing for lake trout in "very choppy water" near the
mouth of the AuSable
River. According to Oscoda-AuSable Township
police, an unidentified boater saw the Poole
boat capsize shortly afternoon and notified Patricia Brewer, owner of the Main
Pier Marina.
She notified Floyd Payne, commodore of the
Oscoda Yacht Club and a member of the Oscoda Coast Guard Auxiliary. He and
three other club members rushed to the scene. Payne said the "water was
terribly rough," with waves up to eight feet.
The Oscoda man said he saw something in the
water that looked like a coat, but turned out to be Mrs. Poole's body. Police
estimated Mrs. Poole had been in the chilly water between 30 and 40 minutes.

Hospital, Tawas City.
Her husband was rescued by another unidentified boater.

PRESIDO
Virginia Presido, age 88, of Beaverton passed away Monday, May 12, 2003. Surviving
are her husband of 64 years, Adolph; two daughters, Linda (Anthony) Cabose of
Lansing and Anne (Robert) VanOrden of San Bernadino, California; three
grandchildren, Gregory Cabose of East Lansing, Carol (Joseph) David of Grand
Rapids and Sloan (Amy) Presido of Eugene, Oregon; three great-grandchildren,
Josie Parker and Cameron David of Grand Rapids; and two sisters, Beatrice Clark
of St. Charles and Ella Tippin of Lake Wales, Florida.
She was born in South Branch, Michigan on March 28, 1915 and was named Virginie Mae
by parents Charles and Martha Berry. "Virgie" was the third of six
siblings for whom farm life provided a strong work ethic. Their mother shared a
love of books, reading to her children and teaching them to recite poetry.
Virgie was inspired to seek education goals
beyond what seemed possible. Passing the county exams for eighth grade
completion she set her spirits on high school. There was no high school in
South Branch, so Virgie went to live with her aunt in Albany, Indiana
where she completed the ninth, tenth and eleventh grades. She returned to Michigan and worked for room and board in Tawas City,
while completing the 12th grade. Encouraged by her mother, she enrolled in the
Ogemaw County Normal Program in West Branch, a one-year post high school
teacher training program. She entered the teaching profession in 1934, at the
age of 19, and didn't leave it until age 68.
Her first teaching position at the Burtun F. Tefft School
in Fremont Township was gained on the strenght
of her ability to play the piano, so she was grateful for the farm fresh eggs
her mother had traded for piano lessons. She earned $60 a month for teaching
grades one through eight and doing the janitorial work. The following year she
was hired to teach grades one through eight in another one-room school in Brady Center
in Saginaw County for a monthly pay of $100.
The pay increase enabled her to begin college classes offered by the College of Education
at Mt. Pleasant.
She married Adolph Presido on May 6, 1939,
and continued to teach until the birth of their first child. By 1943, she was a
Navy wife with a husband on a destroyer somewhere in the Pacific. In 1943, she
was hired on a war emergency teaching certificate to teach fifth grade in St. Charles. Due to fuel rationing, the rural
half-day kindergartners didn't go home on the bus until the end of the day.
Four of them joined the 50 students in Mrs. Presido's fifth grade.
In 1947, following the birth of their second
child, the family moved to Beaverton
where she taught from 1953 to 1983. She completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in
Elementary Education and earned credits towards a Masters degree from Central Michigan University
before retiring with 40 years of experience in education. From beginning
teacher to veteran educator, she believed that all children can learn given the
right learning environment and support. She encouraged her students to explore
who they are and guided and supported them to strive for personal success.
She was a member of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church
in Edenville. Funeral services were held Thursday, May 15 at the Hall Funeral
Home in Beaverton with Pastor Russell
Thomas presiding. Interment was at the Beaverton Cemetery.
The family requests memorials be made to the Beaverton Branch of the Gladwin
