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.

CHARLES 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.

Graduating in 1887, he became superintendent of a hospital for the Delta Lumber Company in the upper peninsula of Michigan, where he united in marriage Feb. 24, 1890, to Palma Gaumont. To this union were born 10 children. IN 1899 he went to Bay City as ship yard's physician and doctor for Handy Bros. mine. When the ship yard discontinued, about 30 years ago, he came to this locality as a general practicioner, where he has always resided, with the exception of the period he served as surgeon in the World war.

He is survived by four brothers, two sisters, his wife, two daughters, Mrs. Fred C. Sanborn of Baltimore, Md., Mrs. K. D. McCullough of Butler, Pa., four sons, William, Bruce and Ellis of Beaverton and James of Gladwin, and eight grandchildren. Gladwin County Record dated 05-04/1933 Column - 5 Page - 1

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 County Library. Gladwin County Record dated 05-21/2003 Column - 5 Page - 2
