When did you decide to become an attorney? What influenced your decision?
In 2001, I was working as a police sergeant in Toledo, and I realized that what I liked most about the job was investigating and putting together cases. I was also getting tired of working third shift and sleeping in four-hour blocks of daytime hours. And although there is a lot of diversity in Toledo, even among cops, I never really fit in very well with the "culture". So I started law school in 2001 and graduated in 2004.

Helen Pyatt and Pauline Hirschler

Helen Pyatt
Helen was born in Bedford, Pa., and moved to Salem, Ohio, when she was 12 years old. In 1982 she moved to Ada. Helen has two daughters, Betty Lyons of Ada, and Marjorie Clingerman of Parker, Colo. She also has three grandsons.

Christmas village

A miniature Christmas village greets visitors at the Mennonite Memorial Home this month. The village is in the MMH lobby at 410 W. Elm St.

Forty-three dead or dying ash trees were removed from Bluffton tree lawns and the Buckeye and village park in 2011. That information was released in the 2011 Bluffton Tree Commissions annual work plan to Bluffton council.

A complete copy of the report is in an attachment at the bottom of this story.
