Names Of Hopkins County Residents Age 90 Or Older Still Sought for Banquet
Sulphur Springs Senior Citizens Center Marketing and Programs Director Karon Weatherman is still taking names of adults in Hopkins County who are or will be 90 years or older in 2020 so they can be honored at a banquet held in their honor later this spring.
The 15th Annual Clara Bridges 90+ Banquet will begin at noon Saturday, April 25, 2020 and once again be held at First Baptist Church’s Recreational Outreach Center, The ROC, located at 115 Putman St. in Sulphur Springs.
The event is named in honor of Clara Bridges, a local resident who remained a vital part of her church community after reaching her 90th birthday. Bridges was born in Aug. 1912 and died Dec. 23, 2013.
Weatherman, who coordinates the event, said she already has 210 names, but believes there are even more residents who have reached this milestone. She would like to see every one of them recognized.
“I am looking for ALL seniors in Hopkins County that are 90 years of age or will be in 2020. If you know any seniors who are 89 years old or over please contact me to see if they are on my list,” Weatherman said. “I see obituaries all the time where seniors are over 90 and I never had them on my list. It makes me sad that we never honored them.”
And, those who are 100 years or older will receive special recognition. Weatherman said she is aware of at least 14 individuals who have reached that milestone.
“If you know someone who is or will be 90 or over this year, please call me. I can look it up on my list to see if they are already on my list. Please don’t wait for others to call. They may not know or think someone else already had too. We don’t want to miss anyone,” Weatherman said.
She is setting a priority deadline of mid-March 13, so she can send out invitations and make sure she is prepared for each individual age 90 or older. Honorees and their family members will be treated to a free banquet lunch, thanks to even sponsors.
For additional information about the banquet or to register a senior for the event, contact Weatherman at the Senior Citizens Center, at 903)-85-1661 or send an email to [email protected].

Burglary Investigation Results In Location of Stolen Vehicles and Weapons, Tools, Methamphetamine; 5 Arrests
An investigation into a recent burglary resulted in five felony arrests; cleared cases in two counties; resulted in recovery of 10 stolen weapons, two stolen vehicles and multiple tools; and discovery of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, according to sheriff’s and arrest reports.
Credited for their involvement in the investigation were Hopkins County Sheriff’s Investigators Wade Sheets and Dennis Findley, and patrol deputies; and Franklin County Sheriff Rickey Jones and his investigators.
Tatum expressed “appreciation for these officers’ hard work and dedication to the cause of protecting our citizens and their property” following the arrests.
Investigators reportedly received information Friday, Jan. 17, about weapons and a suburban that were stolen in a recently burglary. They contacted 36-year-old Rusty Lee Clay and 34-year-old Shawna Clay, both of Winnsboro, and 39-year-old Lonni Hammond Allen of Royse City at a County Road 2390 residence.
While at the CR 2390 residence, the investigators reportedly learned at least one stolen weapon had been sold to another individual; 34-year-old Jeffery Joseph Stogner of Sulphur Springs arrived with the stolen weapon, Findley and Sheets alleged in arrest reports. However, all four allegedly denied knowledge about any other stolen weapons.
While the investigators and deputies were en route to another location following up on leads, 32-year-old Stephen J. Bryant of Winnsboro was observed working on a vehicle on the side of the road. Just down the same road, the stolen suburban and another vehicle that had been reported stolen from Franklin County were located, according to arrest reports. Bryant allegedly admitted involvement in the unauthorized use of both vehicles and to taking multiple stolen weapons to the Clay residence, where the officers had been earlier, Findley and Sheets alleged in arrest reports.
Upon their return to the CR 2390 residence, Rusty Clay and Jeffery Stogner allegedly escorted investigators into the woods, where eight stolen weapons were hidden under fallen timber, brush and leaves, the investigators alleged in arrest reports.
All five of the individuals were escorted to the sheriff’s office, where they were interviewed, according to arrest and sheriff’s reports. All of the individuals admitted to involvement either with the burglary or the concealment, possession or sale of property taken during the burglary, Sheets and Findley alleged in arrest reports.
Rusty Clay, Shawna Clay, Lonni Allen and Stephen Bryant were arrested at 11 p.m. Jan. 27 and booked into the county jail on an engaging in organized criminal activity charge for their involvement in the burglary of a habitation, according to arrest reports. Stogner was booked into jail on a third-degree felony tampering with evidence charge, according to arrest reports.
During the investigation, a total of 10 stolen weapons, two stolen vehicles, and multiple tools were allegedly recovered. A box containing more than 4 grams of methamphetamine, syringes, scales and other drug paraphernalia was also reportedly found hidden in a culvert, Sheets and Findley alleged in arrest reports.
Rusty Clay allegedly admitted the box belonged to him and that he had hid it, resulting in him being charged with possession of 4 grams or more but less than 200 grams of a Penalty Group 1 controlled substance, the investigators alleged in arrest reports.

SSHS Students Herd, Lopez Recognized For Creating Logos For Hopkins County EMS
Sulphur Springs High School graphic design students Katie Beth Herd and Osiel Lopez Friday were presented with cash awards for submitting the designs selected by Hopkins County EMS as their new logos.
Herd was awarded at $250 honorarium check for her first place logo and Lopez received a $125 honorarium for his second place logo.
Hopkins County EMS Director Brent Smith explained the department hasn’t had a true logo in decades. The department wanted a logo to use on apparel and business materials, such as letterhead, business cards and a website. Hopkins County EMS paramedics attempted to come up with a logo, but decided more creative help was needed.
“Brent came to us needing new logos and some new branding for their department. So, our students had a competition. They chose from 70 logos altogether and we narrowed it down to seven. We did some consulting, some changing. They chose two winners,” said Megan Tingle, SSHS graphic arts teacher.
Smith said the as a member of some career and technology education committees he has had the opportunity to hear about project-based learning at SSHS. So, he contacted the school to see if they’d be interested in partnering with Hopkins County EMS.
Tingle said doing so fit along with the program goals to develop more community partnerships to offer more real world experiences for students. It was a good way for students to build their portfolios, practice what they’ve been learning and participate in design consulting.
Hopkins County EMS met with the students and individually coached them through a revision session.
“We are very proud of the creativity and students listening to our feedback. You should have heard us trying to describe. We wanted some swooshes behind the Hopkins County one,” Smith said with a laugh, pointing to Lopez’s design. “As Mrs. Tingle said, there were 60-some-odd, almost 70, logos to look at. Some were very, very creative and some were very, very detailed to the point some of them were too detailed for us. So, we had to give some feedback. It was a hard decision.”
Students then made necessary edits and the final designs were evaluated more than one time by Smith and the leaders from each of the three EMS shifts, before the final decision was made.
Herd and Lopez’s designs were both selected by Hopkins County EMS.
“The reason we chose two is some logos are more applicable to certain things, websites and things versus apparel. Sometimes, even though logos are very cool, they don’t embroider very well. So, we wanted to have flexibility of having both and we’re very fortunate that we’re getting different file types for whatever we choose to put our logos on,” Smith said.
“He did an excellent job and Katherine you did an excellent job as well. Hats off to all the other students as well,” Smith added.
Herd said she didn’t know a lot about EMS, so she placed emphasis on “Hopkins County” and “EMS.” She went through more than one draft before reaching the final product. Originally, she had the image on a black background, and had a lighter red circle around the Star of Life but changed it to gray. She said she thought adding a heartbeat with the Star of Life would be a nice touch.
Lopez said he went with a simple design, nothing too deep or too complicated. He started with Hopkins County, added Texas with the Star of Life in the middle.
The EMS director said he is “very proud” of all of the students and pleased with their new logos.
Heard described the competition as a “fun challenge” she really enjoyed. She said it was one of two competitions the class was given the opportunity to participate in; the other was a t-shirt design for an organization.
Herd said the graphic design program at SSHS is a good one. She likes the project based learning, gaining real-life experience as opposed to just being taught how to do it.
She is planning to pursue a career in graphic arts. She hopes to intern at an animation studio in Fort Worth after high school. She’d like to do something along the lines of animated features or commercial advertising, and hopes to intern at an animation studio in Fort Worth or similar program after she graduates high school.
Lopez’s said this was his first time to participate in competition. Having to wait, not knowing who would win, made him a little nervous.
He described the graphic arts program at SSHS as a good program which students can “get a lot out of.” He said among the things he’s considering pursuing as a career are graphic design and mechanics.
“We have enjoyed the partnership with the school district as far as doing the PBL, project based learning. I already have another one in mind. It’s not more in the graphic design. It’s more in the welding department, but hopefully we can set up for something next year. I definitely urge community leaders and businesses in our area to tap into the resources that our school district offers. Paramedics we couldn’t design anything. It’s not really our forte. There’ s a lot of creative minds and hard working individuals here so thank y’all for your time,” Smith concluded.
