Hilty Memorial Home, Pandora, an affiliate of Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio (MHCO), recently completed a project involving the replacement of its walk-in cooler and freezer.  

The new $35,000 unit was custom made for Hilty Home by US Cooler, Quincy, Ill.  The new unit features a sloped roof versus a flat roof that the prior unit had. This will enable the water to flow off the top as opposed to standing, thus increasing the life of the unit.

Here's a first for Ada - an Ada HS grad on a professional football rookie card. Zac Dysert, who played for Ada HS and Miami (Ohio), has his own NLF "rookie" football card. The front of the card shows Dysert is a passing photo. The flip side reads:

77
Leaf
Draft
Zac Dysert
Position: QB
Height: 6'4"  Weight: 228
Zac Dysert is a strong armed pocket quarterback with some mobility, who given time to throw the ball will help any team at the next level.

As you might imagine, it's a popular card this spring in Ada.
