Brothers, Kent M. Everhart and Keith A. Everhart, were inducted into the Ada High School Alumni Association Hall of Honor on June 3 during the alumni banquet.
Kent Everhart
Kent Everhart, a 1987 graduate, was active in football, baseball and Future Farmers of America (FFA) during high school.
After graduation, he served four years in the United State Air Force and then attended Ohio Northern University.
Kent and his wife, Dee (Wolber) also of Ada, established Everhart Trucking in 2000, which was named Business of the Year by Ada Chamber of Commerce in 2012.
Humphrey Bogart was wrong when, in Casablanca, he said: "We'll always have Paris." As of June 1, 2017, the world has turned. We won't have Paris.
We will, however, stand firm with the following opinions on Paris (and global warming). The following is from NASA on climate change. CLICK HERE TO VIEW IT.
Observations throughout the world make it clear that climate change is occurring, and rigorous scientific research demonstrates that the greenhouse gases emitted by human activities are the primary driver.

School's out for the summer. Monty Siekerman captured some scenes that tell the story.

High school commencements are rather formal affairs, mostly scripted the same from town to town, but this year's Ada High School graduation ceremony added a new feature, which was creative and fun: boomwhackers.
Nine senior band members, along with Band Director Johnathan Lischak, played a John Williams medley using colorful plastic "instruments," called boomwhackers. Even a flautist joined in during portions of the piece.

Roger Moore was never my favorite James Bond. I mean, Sean Connery, come on. Nobody’s “Bond, James Bond,” like the Scot.
Never mind. When James Bond dies – even if it is Roger Moore - my thoughts go flashing back again to…Goldfinger.
The first time I saw James Bond was in the Carma Theatre with a bunch of the boys…Kent Kinsinger, John Lehman, probably Max Eastman. Maybe Larry Eikenbary. We were, I believe, freshmen on bicycles.
