RETOLD OLD NEWS

Mount Ayr Record-News
Mount Ayr, Ringgold County, Iowa
Thursday, February 1, 1996

Lisa Wilson, Mount Ayr

Place's Discount Center opened officially Wednesday morning, marking another expansion in the retail base for Mount Ayr. The company has been a part of the community for 49 years, now in its third location.

When Joe GROSS retired Dec. 31, 1995 from the Iowa Republican State Central Committee, he was left with memories of almost 18 years of service in that capacity as well as one term as state representative and a large contribution to Ringgold County Republican activities.

Kenny HEBENSPERGER, 67, of Mount Ayr, was featured in a Sunday edition of the Des Moines Register in connection with his receiving a "HeartMate." HEBENSPERGER has been on a waiting list for a heart transplant since August. Before checking into Mercy Hospital Medical Center in Des Moines over a month ago, his wife, Sherry, says he was so weak that his kidneys and liver were damaged and he could barely walk. The article explained, "No longer able to wait for a donor heart, doctors at the Iowa Heart Center inserted a new kind of blood pump into HEBENSPERGER'S abdomen to save his life."
