A River Without Water—Temporarily Right in our own backyard—we can see a rare feat of engineering—man harnessing the power and flow of a river. Take a walk down the prairie path east of Batavia Rd. At the bridge you see when you cross the river on Butterfield Rd there are huge diesel engines sucking the river into a pipe. The water is moved downstream in the pipe below a temporary wall structure and again released into the river. A huge section of river is without water; trucks and men scurry about digging in the river bottom.

    What was billed as a battle of the titans turned out to be a total runaway Friday night, when Wheaton Warrenville South rolled over Maine South 44-7 in a non-conference matchup at Red Grange Field in Wheaton that saw last year's Illinois 8A state champion absolutely worked over by the 7A state champion in front of a national television audience on ESPN.

I would like to thank so many people. I would like to thank the Warrenville Fire Department and Police Department for donating their services to bring my son home.

I would with all my heart thank the Warrenville Woman’s Auxiliary and the V.F.W. for the preparation and donation of food and use of the V.F.W. Warrenville Thank all of you for bringing my son home for a proper memorial.

The outpouring of support I received was great and will be recognized in my heart forever.

A special thank you to the Patrick Phalen and the Patriot Guards. Roger Clark with the Warrenville Fire Department, Pam Lowe for all her help and support.

All the many of you that cried for me or with me. Even if you just lined the streets as he was brought home.

To all my family and friends that were their for my children and myself, we are so very grateful. We could have never got through this time without any of you.

The loss of a child is tremendous, and the loss of their brother, grandson, or cousin and all the support we received is what has held us up to manage through these hard times. You are all so greatly appreciated for everything that you have done.

My heartfelt thank you goes out to so many. The donations helped so much. We still have the account open to help defray the funeral cost. Donations may be made at TCF Bank. The account is Kathy R. Foss funeral fund.

    People need to know in their hearts that one day they will be accountable before God for all of their actions, whether they believe in God or not. He is a loving Father to His children, but the ones who reject Him and follow their own sinful ways in ignorance of the truth, He is a consuming fire. Dear People, REPENT, and believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I say this this with lots of compassion and love in my heart. God wants all to be saved and none to parish.

  • Bright Future for Cenacle Property Written by Jim Kleinwachter

    I have read the thoughts of some other readers on the appearance of the Cenacle property,  and I felt the need to add my views. The [DuPage County Forest Preserve District] is in the process of naturalizing the property. For hundreds of years the Cenacle property was an Oak Savannah. At some point [not too long ago], the landscape under the Oak trees became mowed grass.

  • The Mayor and Fawell Dam Written by Ronald J. Lisowski, Jr.

    My family and I moved to Warrenville in late June of 2010. I have read the two articles regarding Fawell Dam (“Fawell Dam Concerns Unanswered,” by Crystal Lynn, 7/9/2010; and, “Village Chronicles Article is Incomplete and Inaccurate,” by David L. Brummel, Mayor, 7/23/2010). I also read the article by Mayor Brummel regarding his former big red truck.

  • Flood Problem: Unanswered Questions and Not Enough Help Written by Mary Joe Huber

    At the somewhat confrontational city council meeting on Aug. 2 concerning the frequent flooding of the river in Warrenville, Mayor Brummel stated several times that citizens should get their questions in by that Friday and they would be answered at the meeting the following Monday.

  • When It Comes to the Cenacle Property, the Forest Preserve Is On the Right Track Written by Gary Davis

    Over the past few months, I have seen a number of instances in this paper where individuals have not been happy with the forest preserve’s handling of the former Cenacle property. I'd like to voice my support of what it is doing.

  • Fawell Dam Impedes Warrenville Drainage Written by Michael Hoffmann

    When I bought my property in 1985, it was not in a flood plain. It became flood plain in 2003. FEMA never notified me of this; I found out through a realtor. Having flood plain on my property has devastated its value.
