WINDSOR TWP. — AnOklahoma man convictedof embezzling cemeterytrust funds that includeda Dimondale cemetery wassentenced to prison andordered to pay millions inrestitution recently.
Attorney General BillSchuette announced Clay-ton R. Smart, 71, of Okmul-gee, Oklahoma, has beensentenced to up to twentyyears in prison and mustpay $48 million in restitu-tion.
The sentence comesafter Smart pleaded guiltyas charged to 39 felony
counts filed by the MichiganAttorney General’s officein 2007 after investigationrevealed Smart embezzledup to $70 million in ceme-tery trust funds affecting28 Michigan cemeteries.
Private cemeteryOne of those was Park
Lawn Memorial Cemeteryoff M-99 in Windsor Town-ship. The cemetery is pri-vate, according to TownshipSupervisor Sue Butler.
“We have three publiccemeteries that serve thetownship and so becausePark Lawn is private wedon’t have dealings with itother than tax payments,”Butler said.
According to WindsorTownship Treasurer JerriMarst-Blush, the cemeterypaid its winter tax bill,which included a specialsewer assessment on itsfour connecting parcels.
She said the currentassessment on the propertyis set at zero, which proba-bly has to do with the inves-tigation. The tax bill listsMidwest Memorial Groupas the owner.
In the attorney gener-al’s announcement, Mid-west Memorial Group waslisted as buying 26 of the 28cemeteries and will handlerestitution.
The cemetery is expected to be paid back through millions in restitution. WILL KANGAS

Two to five years for 28counts of failing to trust or

Millions to pay backJudge Robbins also
ordered Smart to pay theaffected cemetery trusts$48,670,000 in restitution.The order, which has theforce of a civil judgment,may be enforced by Mid-west Memorial Group.
When the investigationwas ongoing years ago,Dimondale Village Man-ager Denise Parisian saidshe received several callsfrom residents confusedby sales calls fromcemetery representatives,because the cemetery is
not in the village limits.Approximately $20 mil-
lion in restitution hasalready been recoveredfrom Smart by thecourt-appointed conser-vator for the affectedcemeteries, the AttorneyGeneral’s Office, and Mid-west Memorial Group.
The multi-jurisdictional plea agree-ment resolving Smart’scase, which addressescharges filed by Michiganand the federal govern-ment, was entered for-mally in Michigan courton September 1, 2011.

“People seemed happyto have a family friendlyevent like this right in ourback yard, without havingto depend on East Lansingor Lansing for our cul-tural events,” Reedy said.
“We are still workinghard to get the word outthere about this, and simi-lar events, and many vis-itors were surprised tohear that it was a repeatevent.”
The idea of the eventis to draw artists fromthe area to display theirworks at Veterans Memo-rial Park. Reedy said itwasn’t easy. “One of thehardest parts of puttingthese events together, iscreating that momentumwith artists,” she said.
“It is hard to draw inquality artists until youhave a reputation in theart community, but thatreputation doesn’t comeuntil you’ve worked witha number of artists pos-itively. We’ve workedreally hard to share ourmission of engaging the
participants in art withthe artists and each yearour numbers havegrown.”
Over 80 people judgedthe salsa samples andtalked with others forcooking tips, meanwhilelocal artists had theirwork displayed andreviewed.
“As a volunteer with-out an artistic bone in mybody, I think these kindsof events not only bringsome exciting ideas totown, but foster a sense ofcommunity,” Reedy said.

HOLT - In their onepoint double over-timevictory over Everett, Holtlooked like the team theythought they would be.
If the first two gameswere learning experi-ences, Holt is showingthat learned the lessonswell.
In their first twogames, Holt scored 21total points and gave up66.
However, in confer-ence play Holt has givenup just 22 points (nine ofwhich came in the twoovertimes) while scoring42.
Holt appears to havebecome that toughdefense they havebecome known for andtheir defensive play waskey in the win over Ever-ett.
After fighting to a 7-7tie at the end of regu-lation, Holt had the ballfirst to start the first over-time.
Holt actually lost 2
yards and ended up set-tling for a field goal.
The defense came into a situation where theyhad to hold Everett tosame.
“Before [the defensegoes] on the field wealways get into a minihuddle,” Linebacker MattZajac said.
“Before the overtimewe were saying; ‘believewe can do it, and we cando it.
Go out and there andplay together and play forthe guy next to you.’”
Holt did hold Everettto the field goal in thefirst overtime but gave upa touchdown to start thesecond overtime.
However, after thetouchdown Zajac madeperhaps the biggest playof the game and blockedthe extra point.
Matt Zajac attributesthe play to studying filmwith his cousin and start-ing safety Jacob Zajac.
“During film we sawthat the wing always wentway outside to chase theoutside guy so we looked
at each other and said‘let’s do this’.”
When Holt’s offensetook the field, they wereable to get a touchdown.
Holt has a weapon nearthe goal line that no otherteam has, a 6-3 250 poundwide receiver.
Sophomore Colin Jonescaught a screen pass andwas able to rumble intothe endzone for a sevenyard touchdown.
Last year’s Division 1-2all state kicker EvanFischer knocked the extrapoint though for the win.
In addition to the over-time performance, Holt’sdefense played well theentire game.
Everett is a spreadteam known for throwingthe ball and Holt heldthem to 17 yards passingthe entire game.
“They’re a team thatcan spread you all overthe place and are veryeffective and their quar-terback is outstanding,”Coach Al Slamer said.“and that was great forus.”
Holt improves — wins close one over Everettin the Ram Defense issenior Linebacker TobinEgger.
Egger had 13 tacklesfor Holt in the win and isone of just four returningstarters on defense.
As an inexperiencedsquad the defense strug-gled early in the seasonbut is now starting tofigure each other out andis playing as well as anydefense in the area.
“We all come out andplay as a unit and every-body is firing on the samecylinders,” Egger said.
“We all work on aregoals and if we are able todo our goals we’ll stop theother team.”
Free Kick RuleFor those who attended
the game and were con-fused by the way regu-lation ended, here is anexplanation of rule whichHolt utilized to win the
game in regulation.Holt fair caught a punt
at the end of the game atthe 47 yard line.
The Rams thenattempted a game win-ning 57 yard field goal,which they missed, fromthe line of scrimmagewith no snap.
The defense lined up10 yards away unable torush, making it impossi-ble to have any real effecton the kick.
In Michigan, whichuses the National Federa-tion of State High SchoolAssociations rules, fol-
lowing a fair catch atany point in the game,the receiving team mayattempt a “free kick”from the spot of the ball.
The kick must be takenimmediately followingthe catch, a team may notrun an offensive play andthen try a free kick.
This rule is rarely usedbut it allowed Holt toattempt the field goal withno rush, and from 57yards rather than 65.
Holt is no stranger tothis rule as they also tookadvantage of it in 2005against Charlotte as well.
“Before the overtime we were saying;‘believe we can do it, and we can do it.Go out and there and play together andplay for the guy next to you.’MATT ZAJACLinebacker

HOLT - Playing the roleof the dark horse, theboys cross country teamhas set lofty goals thisseason.
The Rams are takingaim at the CAAC Bluechampionship and makingit to the state meet as ateam.
In cross country yourscore is equal to you fin-ishing place, and the teamwith the lowest cumula-tive score f their top fiverunners wins.
Unlike most competi-tive teams, the Rams donot have a runner thatwill consistently bring invery low scores, but theyare still winning meets.
Their secret: depth andpacking. At the BattleCreek Lakeview
Invitational last Saturday,which the Rams won,Holt’s top 5 finishers fin-ished within 22 secondsof each other and theirtop 7 finished just over aminute apart.
“I call them five inter-changeable parts,” CoachDave Foy said. “becausethey are so close andalways switch places witheach other.”
Senior Matt Snay fin-ished fifth among theRams and tenth overall atBattle Creek, but againstGrand Ledge and EasternTuesday, Snay bested allof his teammates and tookthird overall.
Holt beat Eatern 15-48at that meet but lost toGrand Ledge 30-25.
Still Holt thinks theycan accomplish the goalsthey set out earlier in theseason.
“Despite the one lossto Grand Ledge we stillbelieve we can get themin the league meet,” Foysaid. “We think we canbeat Okemos too, but wecan’t make any mistakes.”
Snay points out thatthis unique team makeup is something that actu-ally helps the team beatthe other teams they faceand will aid them against
Okemos and in the confer-ence meet.
“We don’t have thatrunner this year that isgoing to get us that reallow score,” Snay said.
“But being in a tightpack we are able to getbeat by one or two guyson the other team and stillhave lower scores thantheir teams.”
Cross country team hopes to achieve goalswin and make it to thestate meet, senior EverettRawlings said it is clearthe team’s times will haveto decrease.
Rawlings said hethinks everyone need todrop 20 seconds but issure that is a feasiblegoal.
Part of Rawlings’ con-
fidence comes once againfrom the way the team ismade up this year.
“It forces us to pusheach other and workharder so we can beatour teammates,” Rawlingssaid of the proximity ofteammates’ finishes. “andthat moves us further andfurther ahead.”
The Holt Cross Country team has been working hard toachieve its goals for this season. COURTESY PHOTO

The Boys Tennis team won their ownInvitational last Saturday defeating twoteams from the OK Red, a conferenceknown for good tennis, and the Okemos Bteam. The finished with 19 points, EastKentwood had 14, Saginaw Heritage hadnine, and Okemos-B had five.
Girls CC split first league meetThe Girls Cross country team split
their first league meet of the season Tues-day. The Rams beat Eastern 21-40, but lostto Grand Ledge 36-20. However, CoachPam Stafford says the team is showingvast improvements though.
“The girls have been decreasing theirtimes, which is a plus,” Stafford said.“That tells me we are still going to peakheading into the league.”
The team has been lead by AutumBaker who finished fourth over all andwas the top finisher for the Rams and theEastern and Grand Ledge meet.
Amanda Becker finished third amoungthe Rams and ninth overall at the meetand dropped 30 seconds off her time fromthe weekend at the Lakeview Invitational.
Stafford said that the 30 seconddecrease in time for Becker shows howthe whole team has been improving.
“I think its their mentality of confi-dence and their mentality of pushing each
other in practices.” Stafford said. “Theyare not looking at each other as just team-mates, they are looking at each other ascompetitors”
Girls Golf in three-way tieWith just one 18-hole competition left
in the CAAC Blue schedule, Holt, Okemos,and East Lansing are caught in a three-way tie for first place. Where these teamsend up in the standings will be decidedTuesday at College Fields Golf Club.
Winning the conference will be nosmall accomplishment for any of theteams as all three are ranked in the top 10in the state in their respective divisions.Holt is ranked sixth in Division 1, whileOkemos and East Lansing hold the No. 8and No. 9 spots, respectively, in Division2.
Wednesday the teams met in the lastnine-hole Jamboree of the season. EastLansing and Okemos both shot 164 butOkemos earned the first-place points ontheir fifth golfer’s score. Holt finished twostrokes behind them with a 166.

EAST LANSING – Thegirls behind the men of“Jersey Boys” work hardfor their money.
The musical chroniclingthe storied career of popband the Four Seasonsopens Wednesday, Sept. 28at the Wharton Center forPerforming Arts for a runcontinuing through Sunday,Oct. 16.
Just three actresses slipin and out of costumes fordozens of roles.
Each has a main partalong with many smallerroles – some that only last afew minutes.
Kara Tremel stars asMary Delgado, Frankie Val-li’s first wife.
A native of Moose Jaw,Sask., Tremel moved toToronto at age 18 to attendcollege and study musicaltheater. Tremel’s careerincludes an eight-year stintin Europe, during which shetoured in musicals all overthe continent.
“This is the best showI’ve ever been in,” she said.
According to the story,Delgado was the one whosuggested Valli adopt thatspelling of his stage name,rather than the Vally hepreferred.
“She’s a tough broad.She’s a real Jersey girl wholikes her cigarettes and herdrinks,” Tremel said of Del-gado.
“She is the one who helps
him discover his name. Sheis the woman behind him.She definitely helps him geton his way.”
Stepping into a host ofminor characters isn’t astough as it might seem,especially when the cast hasthe help of talented back-stage attendants and dress-ers. “We’re able to keeptrack pretty easily,” saidTremel, part of the cast forfour years.
“You run offstage, youget a new costume and anew wig. You look down atthe costume, you know whoyou are and you do it.”
Pure fun
Denise Payne’s main roleis Valli’s daughter Francine.Being part of the “JerseyBoys” cast is “pure fun,” shesaid – even when there issometimes barely a minuteto switch characters.
“Each little role is indi-vidually very small, butthey’re all so different. It’sthree hours of getting toplay different characters,”Payne said.
“It’s challenging, but it’sfun. It’s not like any showthat’s ever been written.Theater-wise, I’m lucky toget three hours of playevery night.”
Payne grew up in Buf-falo, N.Y. She attendedNiagara University for col-lege and spent summers atNew York University study-ing dance.
Both actresses saidthey’ve been able to draw
on their own life experi-ences to enrich their respec-tive characters. Frankie andMary, for example, even-tually go their separateways.
“I’ve had a roller-coasterride of relationships. Somehave been great, and somewere not so great,” Tremelsaid. “I’ve definitely usedthe not-so-great ones whenit comes to portraying thecharacter.”
Touring and the life ofan actor is “not a stablelife,” she continued, anddefinitely takes its toll onrelationships.
“It’s a good thing this isa show with more matureactors. We’ve gone throughour 20s, we’ve experienceda lot. We’ve made mistakes,gotten over that and learnedfrom them. I’ve drawn on allthose experiences to bringthat into the character.”
While Payne said play-ing someone she’s neverbeen requires some suspen-sion of disbelief, she doesremember what it was liketo be 16. She also sees thefemale characters as havingdifferent acting challengesthan the men.
“They go from youngmen to adults, and there’sa lot of tension betweenthem. We haven’t had atransition like that at all,so we’re making two com-pletely different journeysas an actor,” she added.
“Thinking about howthey moved in the 50s, vs. ahooker character in the 60s
