Editor’s CornerIn the days since Morris Stulberg’s

passing, hundreds, if not thousands of trib-utes have been posted on Facebook andother social media.Two are posted below, followed by my

column:“I now live in Medina, Ohio, (a Cleveland suburb), and my

memories of Morris are as real to me today as when they wereminted,” said Mark Campo, a former Marshall resident. “At onetime, I was amember of First Baptist Church (next to CityHall andthe Brooks Fountain), andwe had invitedMorris to talk about Jew-ish customs and history. As we entered the sanctuary, Morrisreached a hand to his head and then looked slightly embarrassed.When a friend noticed, and asked what was going on, Morrisreplied, ‘I was reaching for my yarmulke (skull cap); it is an al-most unconscious awareness of the presence of God. It doesn'thappen to me every time I enter a church, but occasionally.’Whereupon he shrugged his shoulders in a sort of typical gestureto indicate he couldn't explain it further. It is one of my treasuredmemories of a Marshall treasure, and now you own it as well.”The other comes from Jill Fish: “It would have been a greater

loss to never have had Morris Stulberg bless our community withhis love, talent and open-hearted generosity,” said Jill. “As a com-munity, we can carry on the values that Mr. Stulberg lived everyday: give to those in need, and make a newcomer in Marshall feelwelcome to the City of Hospitality. God Speed, Mr. Stulberg.”

I met Morris Stulberg in early 2007 when I attended a RotaryClub meeting just after starting my position here at the newspaper.I can’t remember exactly what he said to me that day as he

sought me out to shake my hand to welcome me to Rotary, butknowing that I was new to the paper, he said something along thelines that he’d be happy to sit downwith me and offer me a historylesson or two about Marshall.I had nomore than perhaps 10 interactions withMorris over the

last five years of his life, but the impact of those few conversationswe had will stay with me forever.I enjoyed my visits with Morris immensely because in many

ways, he reminded me of my father.My fatherwas fourmonths older thanMorris, the twomenwere

almost identical in height and appearance and both suffered fromAlzheimer’s.Each had fought in World War II in Europe, but my father did

his fighting with the Russian Army following his release from aSiberian labor camp after being sent there at age 17 just after thewar began.They said he was a Polish spy; my father said he was just trying

to get home on bicycle from his uncle’s house through the woods(staying clear of artillery fire) when he was arrested.Whereas Morris talked about his experience in the war and

everything else for that matter with such gusto, my father, exposedto horrors that I’ll never be able to imagine, talked very little andwas left bitter by the tragedies he experienced as a teenager.I can count on one hand the times I rememberedmy father truly

happy, and when sitting down with Morris, it was like being withthe father I wished I had.On almost every occasion after talking with Morris, I’d call my

dad and lovingly listen to what he had to say, especially when he’dsay the same things over and over again.Spending time with Morris always made me feel closer to my

father.It’s a gift that I’ll always treasure.May you rest in peace, Morris. You were the kindest man I’ve

ever known.

Morris Stulberg, known as “Mr. Marshall,” passed away on June 10 at age 90. Many,this week have shared their memories of what Stulberg contributed to the Marshallcommunity. What lasting memories do you have about Morris?

Letters

Ron Dillman,Marshall“Morris is going to be missed. When I

first came to town I met the leaders (JackTownsend, Chet Hemmingsen, etc.) of ourcommunity, one of which was Morris.They did a lot of things in the public lightand looked out for the town however theycould.”

Roger Graves,Marshall“We used to ride horses in all the pa-

rades and on the trails in Marshall. Oneday we were riding over by the highschool and his horse Torey made a quickright turn and Morris was thrown off. Iasked if he was okay. He said he wasfine, but said not to tell Charlotte. He’s agood ol’ friend. I’ll miss him dearly.”

Word on the StreetHow will you remember Morris Stulberg?

by John Hendler

Ann Miller,Marshall“When I moved to town in 1974, I

joined the “newcomers group” and Mor-ris gave us a tour of Marshall. You couldjust tell from his enthusiasm how muchhe loved Marshall. I also learned a lotabout him, his family and his ancestry onthat trip.”

Jerry Holt,Marshall“I remember when he owned the

junk yard and would do the scrapmetal. He worked just like he was anemployee. He always seemed fair topeople.”

Kathy Miller,Marshall“We’ve lost a good man who left a

huge imprint on Marshall. His passion forMarshall can never be replicated. I will al-ways remember his big hugs, encouragingwords and that big smile. Morris, thanksfor the memories!”

Kathie Boyer,Marshall“He was one of the greats. I felt that

we were losing one of the originalplayers. He shared with me the historyof the Franke Center of the Arts. Ilearned so much from that man. Hewas a wealth of information.”

Take all facts into consideration when making decisionTo the Editor:I was chosen to be one of the

citizens to represent the neigh-borhood on the Hospital andNeighborhood Committee. Iwas delighted to be asked andeven more excited to serve onthis committee as I had highhopes for some kind of resolu-tion between the hospital and theneighborhoods surrounding it.On page 4 of the HNC Ex-

ecutive Summary it reads,“The HNC was established toaddress long-standing chal-lenges between the growthneeds of Oaklawn Hospitaland the desires of the neigh-borhood and historic preserva-tion community to prevent anynegative impact to the neigh-borhood and/or historic struc-tures.”The HNC was charged with

identifying an acceptable com-promise solution. Unfortu-nately, speaking for myself andanother committee member,Dave Deppe, we found no ac-ceptable compromise that wasbeneficial from a neighbor-hood standpoint. We were notthe only ones to feel this way.

Oaklawn brought in manyexperts to help us formulatesome decisions on their exper-tise in certain areas. One suchperson was Robb McKay, astate historic architect. Hissuggestions of preserving therow of homes directly east ofthe hospital, because of theirhistoric nature and becausethey had not been compro-mised, was met with total dis-regard. This was very disap-pointing to me as I thoughtthis could have been one of theareas Oaklawn could haveshown a willingness to com-promise. This point was alsobrought up by other membersof the community when theywere allowed to speak at someof our meetings.There was a recent letter

written to the ad-vi-sor&chronicle and the BattleCreek Enquirer by Charles O.Dobbins, Jr., a retired citymanager from Florida, whonow resides in Marshall. Oneof his points that he stated inhis letter was, “To recommendthe approval of the HospitalCampus Overlay District ordi-

nance, Hospital Campus Over-lay District edge zones andsign ordinance amendmentswill result in a travesty of theplanning and zoning process.”He pointed out many other ex-cellent points about the flawsin the makeup surrounding theoverlay district that I agreewith wholeheartedly.There were also many local

and state agencies that verystrongly do not support thepassing of this proposed over-lay district including our ownMarshall Historical Societyand Marshall’s Downtown De-velopment Authority as well asthe National Parks Service ofMichigan and the MichiganHistoric Preservation Network.As stated in my letter as Ex-

hibit B2 in the HNC ExecutiveSummary—I wrote, “Whensuch important national, stateand local authorities, commis-sions and societies do not sup-port the irreversible changes toour community such as Oak-lawn requests, those who insiston passing such legislation arelacking in good judgment, anddo not represent the citizens,

and the city, they have swornto safeguard.I hope you take all of these

facts into consideration whenhelping to make a decision thatmay impact the future of thisunique historic city for yearsto come.It’s not too late to voice

your opinion or submit a letterto the Marshall City Council.Please come to the MarshallCity Council meeting in theMarshall City Hall on Mon-day, June 18, 2012, at 7 p.m.May I leave you with a

quote from an issue ofPreser-vation Magazine: “Still today,too few of our fellow citizenstruly comprehend of the powerof preservation. Too few un-derstand that preservation isnot simply about architectureand landscape, but about ourlives—who we were and aretoday—and about leaving ourchildren and grandchildren asolid foundation on which tobuild.”
