Iconoclast View

By Caitlin Nearhood, university intern

German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche was right when he said: “that which does not kill us makes us stronger.”

However, when I tore a crucial ligament in my right knee playing tennis last July, that phrase was the last thing on my mind.

The Circus Tent

By Paul Klassen

Yes, I remember, it happened in  our town.
Almost everything I remember from those long years ago
happened in our town.  There was no other place to be.
No other place to go.  We were always there.  Stuck you might say.

And so the word got out.  The circus was coming to town,
And tomorrow would be the day.
But they were here already, setting up at the edge of town
In the empty field on Vance Street.

The cold weather has affected the Icon . A time machine sent us back into the 1930s of downtown Bluffton.

Four "new" advertisers posted ads on The Icon today. They are:
• The Iron Lantern - restaurant, (operated by Richard Boehr's father, John)
• Patterson Barbershop (operated by Nancy Fruchey's father, Don)
• Thompson and Rupright  groceries
• Mumma Electric Co.

Bluffton’s 2014 new year’s baby – Lincoln David Suter’s partial family tree

Thanks to several Bluffton-Pandora genealogical records, The Icon can provide the following paternal information on Lincoln.

There are obvious missing bits of information – and we apologize for that – but this offers an idea of his family tree. As you can see by last names, Lincoln has lots of relatives in the Icon viewership area.

Unfortunately, we do not have his mother’s family records.

Parents Mark and Andrea (Nichols) Suter
