1963 A note about his tombstone birth date inscription. July 22, 1853 was his baptismal date, recorded in the parish register of the church at St-Louis-de-Gonzague, Quebec, where-in followed the words "né la veille", which meant he was born the day before.

Attending his baptism were his godparents, François Vachon and Emilie Séguin.

Fabien was the thirteenth child of Pierre Régimbal dit Jérôme (1806-1873) and Marie-Scholastique Payet dite St-Amour (1812-1887).

He and Salome LaBerge (1857-1938) were married in St-Louis-de-Gonzague on January 27, 1875. The couple moved to Minnesota with their four children in 1882.

His brothers Peter, Joseph, Frank, Mose and Charles; their families and their widowed mother, Scholastique, all departed Canada with him. His sisters, Emilie and Lucie remained in Quebec.

In Gentilly and in Crookston, Minnesota, he went by his grandfather's name, Jerome.

There, seven more children were born to the couple. In 1897, he and his family migrated to the Yakima Valley in Washington State.

He was there known as Fabien Regimbal. The couple's last three children were born in Moxee City, a few miles east of Yakima.

Fabien was a farmer, a carpenter and a grocer; owner of F. Regimbal & Son Grocery on Yakima Avenue in Yakima from 1910 to 1918.

Their 14 children were Marie Sara 'Sarah' (1875-1913), Louis Fabien (1877-1949), Edmond Francois (1880-1966), Marie Denise Olivine aka Sister Ethelreda (1881-1959), Marie Mable Desneige aka Sister Joanna (1883-1969), Francis Xavier (1885-1962), Joseph Ernest (1887-1965), Marie Ann Salome 'Mamie' (1889-1963), Joseph Adolphe Clement aka Father Clement Regimbal (1891-1933), Joseph Armand Donat (1893-1928), Marie Emelie Lorie (1895-1992), Marie Henriette 'Stella' (1898-?), Pierre 'Peter' Aime (1900-1946), and Olympe Marie (1902-1989).

After his death in 1928, he was buried at Holy Rosary Cemetery, Moxee City, Yakima County, Washington.

I am here before you to pay tribute to a man-Arthur Krause, the father of Allison Beth Krause, a student slain in a parking lot on the Kent State University Campus on May 4, 1970. Most of us here know him as the most prominent leader in the quest for justice for the murders that took place here in 1970, a man whose efforts enable us to gather here today.
When I questioned those who knew him well, I heard these descriptive words mentioned: "strong," "stubborn," "vital," "larger than life," "warm and generous," "fierce." I heard phrases like "the iron man of the Kent State family," "he was relentless in his quest for justice," "I felt lucky that I had the benefit of his friendship," "we are richer for having known him." I feel fortunate to have met him.



America first heard from Arthur the day after the shootings. When speaking with television newsmen, he expressed the sentiments of the horribly shocked citizens of this country: "Have we come to such a state in this country that a young girl has to be shot because she disagrees with the action of her government?"

We stopped and listened to him. And we heard from him again. For the next four years, Arthur continually asked for justice. He wanted someone held accountable for the death of his daughter. He called for congressional hearings and federal investigations into the shootings. He appealed for the right to a day in court. He pushed through the Ohio District Court, the United States District Court, the U.S. Court of Appeals, and finally to the U.S. Supreme Court, all the while trying to break down the wall of Ohio's sovereign immunity law-the law that said that defendants could not be sued without first giving their consent to such an action. But he would never back down. As Martin Scheuer, the father of Sandy Scheuer, once told me, "Arthur was a man of principle."

In the first year of the struggle, Arthur was joined by Peter Davies, an ordinary citizen from Staten Island, NY who had been appalled at the shootings and he himself had spent months researching the shootings, looking for clues to explain why the
National Guard had fired:

For almost a year ... we tilted at windmills alone, but without his dynamic strength I could not have stayed the course. Arthur's quest was never idealistic. He was always a realist in dealing with the Nixon administration, and despite his grief and anger, whenever we accomplished something that seemed to me a big step forward, he would laugh and say, "that and ten cents'll get us a cup of coffee." We had more cups of coffee than I care to remember.

Elaine Holstein, the mother of slain Jeff Miller, described Arthur as "totally indispensable," She writes, "Indispensable--because my life in those years after our children were killed and we struggled to find some semblance of justice--would have been far more hellish without the Rock of Gibraltar that was Art Krause.." In 1971, Arthur and Peter were joined by the Reverend John Adams of the United Methodist Church. This addition to the tea had a very positive effect. As Sanford Jay Rosen, attorney for the families in the final settlement, observes:

Two people, Arthur Krause and John Adams, are most responsible for the measure of justice the Kent State victims and their families have received. Arthur brought anger and passion to the cause. John brought hope and compassion. Without these two, all would have been for naught."

Arthur's passion was so deep due to the fact that he knew what lay at the root of the problem. As he recalled his life, he said, "I was like everyone else, and then this happened to us." In recalling other episodes of extreme violence in our country before May of 1970, he said:

I feel a great sense of guilt because I realized what was going on but didn?t do a damn thing about it. Like most Americans these days, we sit on the fence and depend on the lawyer, the church, and the government to do whatever should be done, but if the government doesn't have the right people on the job, nothing will be done .... and we, the people, have to make the government good. Apathy will not be part of my make-up anymore. Apathy is what caused Kent State.

In 1975, Arthur's four years of persistence paid off. The victims' families were given their day in court. Vindication should have been forthcoming. It was not. Elaine Holstein recounts:

It turned out to be many, many day--some of the most painful days of my life. As we sat in the courtroom and heard our lovely children vilified by the defendants and their lawyers ... I found myself increasingly seeking out Art, to become healed by his unshakeable determination and common sense and--most importantly--his humor. Even under the horrendous circumstances that brought us together ... Art's brilliant and sometimes bitter wit would break the tension and lift the oppressive burden we all carried and we would feel the blessed relief of laughter that enabled ...all of us to survive those terrible months.

When the verdict was announced in favor of the National Guardsmen, it was Arthur that announced that the trial proved that the constitution had been destroyed.

While the families waited during the appeal process, the Kent State Administration once again showed its insensitivity to the history of May 4, 1970. After the construction of the gymnasium annex on Blanket Hill, which destroyed part of the site of the shootings, Arthur Krause vowed never to step foot on the Kent State campus again.

In 1979, when the other families and victims decided on an out-of-court settlement for the murder of their children, it was Arthur who held out on giving in to that decision the longest. While some may have attributed this to his usual stubbornness, others attributed it to the devoted love he had for his daughter Allison. As one of the lawyers put it, "He doesn't want to give in to a settlement because it means he'll have to give up Allison."

Dean Kahler, shot on May 4, 1970, spoke truthfully when he told me "the sense of loss Arthur felt for his daughter was very prevalent when you were around him. He never really fully recuperated from her death. It was the focal point of his life and he
was determined to get justice." Tom Grace, also wounded in 1970, observes:

Without Arthur's drive, his fortitude, his unmovable presence, the drive for justice may well have stalled. Our quest is not finished. Yet, Arthur's efforts have allowed us, in some small measure to answer yes to the question that Doris Krause asked nineteen years ago: "Do we say that there is justice Allison?"

While Arthur's years in the battlefield of the United States' court system came to an end, the pain of the loss of his daughter did not. And his bitterness toward the Kent State administration did not fade either. Arthur told me this past summer that he was still waiting for an official notification of Allison's death. I am sure that he was conscious of this when he told the Ravenna Record Courier in 1986 that the Kent State administration was "a worthless organization."

Arthur?s last years were spent enduring the emotional roller coaster of the May 4 Memorial building process. And he did not keep his emotions to himself. Alan Canfora, another student wounded in 1970, told me of some of his last conversations with Arthur:

As Arthur suffered the pain of his terminal illness, he poignantly described his continued frustrations as a result of the cover-up of his daughter's murder and the continued failure of Kent State University to create a lasting memorial tribute in memory of his daughter Allison."

It's a shame that Arthur could not have observed the final vindication of his daughter's death. But, as pointed out earlier, he was very pragmatic. Arthur told me last July, "Anybody that would believe that Kent State University would make any attempt to meet the desires of the Kent State families must also believe in the tooth fairy."

What does Arthur Krause's death mean? It's too soon to know the broader ramifications in the struggle to remember May 4. 1970. On a more personal level, Sandy Rosen says it best: "He marked our lives, so that we are richer for having known him and much poorer now that he is gone." Speaking for myself and all of the others who have fought against the whitewashing of the facts of May 4, 1 feel like I've lost my father.

So how do we really pay tribute to such a man as Arthur Krause? Words are not enough.

We could start by emulating his passion for justice. We can remove the apathy from our own lives. We can build a proper memorial to the memory of Allison, Bill, Jeff, and Sandy--one that is fitting to the magnitude of the event. We can heed Arthur's own advice,

"If you don't stand up for your own rights they will be taken away from you just like they were from Allison."You can love your own children as Arthur loved his.

1967 A Turner from the age of four, Henry Schiget's career was dedicated to improving the Turner program nationwide. Schiget was a member of the Charleroi, Pa., Turners during childhood and, as an adult, took over as Field Director of the American Turners. In his career, Schiget increased class sizes and membership, all while promoting the sport nationwide, including shows for the USO.

In Clinton, Iowa, he increased the Turner membership from 60 members to almost 1,000 and brought the 1949 National American Turner Gymnastic Championships to the town. Schiget also coached gymnastics greats such as Hall of Fame member Fred Roethlisberger.

1988 According to her death certificate (Jefferson Co., #34290, MO State Archives; husband L. O. [Lewis O.] GAMACHE, informant), Lucille was born in St. Louis to Fred SCHERPE and Gabille QUINBY, both born in that city. She was also mother of Ralph Frederick GAMACHE, born in 1912. Scherpe, Lucille Gladys (I73338332)
 
1989 According to her death certificate (Jefferson Co., #41347, MO State Archives; Cora E. Gamache [mother], informant) she was the daughter of John B. GAMACHE and Cora E. NULL, both of Jefferson Co., and the wife of Dana P. HADLOCK.

[Note that, although her death certificate gives her birth year as 1880, the 1900 and 1920 censuses and her marker show it as 1890. Given that her mother was born in 1870, making the 1880 date almost impossible, her year of birth is listed here as 1890.]

1990 According to information on file at the SNPJ office here in Imperial, Pa., Frank Horzen was born March 10, 1899, and died November 22, 1968, of congestive heart failure (heart attack) at the age of 69.

A short notice of his passing from 1968 indicates that he was born in Hrastje, Slovenia (Austrian Empire), lived in Chicago -- where he was well known in the local Slovenian community -- for some time, then moved to Phoenix in the mid-1940s. He was employed as a truck driver in Phoenix, retired in 1964, and had been in failing health after his retirement. Frank was survived by his wife, Julia, and three bothers and three sisters in Slovenia. This information was published in PROSVETA, the SNPJ newspaper, on page 1 of the Dec. 2, 1968, issue.

Prior to his SNPJ membership, Frank was a member of the Slovene Workmen's Benefit Society (SDPZ). The information on his original SDPZ membership card indicates that he joined the SDPZ in August 1921, which would have been shortly after his arrival to the United States.

Although the SDPZ merged with SNPJ in late 1921/early 1922, Frank didn't formally join SNPJ until September 1934. I don't have any documentation to explain the delay between his SDPZ and SNPJ memberships, but when he did join SNPJ in 1934, Frank was a member of SNPJ Lodge 559 in Chicago and remained so until his passing in 1968.
