BACA, Denise Dettorre-Baca, former owner of Freddie's Restaurant, dies: PEORIA, Ariz. - Denise Dettorre-Baca, 47, of Peoria, formerly of Danville, died July 31 (2004) in Peoria at the home of her father. She had been co-owner of Freddie's Restaurant in Danville for the last 10 years. Born June 15, 1957, in Garfield, N.J., she was the daughter of Pasquale "Pat" Dettorre of Peoria and the late Rosemarie Buono Dettorre. In addition to her restaurant position, Dettorre-Baca was active in parent activities at Toliver Elementary School and was a member of SS. Peter and Paul Catholic Church. Additional survivors include a son, Antonio "Tony" Baca of Danville; a sister, Jacquelyn Dettorre of Arizona; and four brothers, James Dettorre of Arizona, Patrick Dettorre of California and Dino Dettorre of New Jersey. Services were Aug. 3 at Best Funeral Services in Peoria. During the decade she was chef and co-owner of Freddie's, Dettorre-Baca gained a reputation not only as a good cook but also as someone who provided support to fellow breast cancer victims and survivors. She had twice survived her own battles with the disease. Regarding the cooking, she applied lessons in Italian cuisine she had learned from her late mother and grandmother. But she was just as well known in the community for her unofficial role as confidante and morale booster for women with cancer as she was for her cooking talents. "I have met a number of women with breast cancer and tried to encourage them, but most of all, I've listened to them," Dettorre-Baca said. "Sadly, some of these women have lost their battles with cancer but others have survived. Whatever their situation, I have tried to see them through it and support them any way I can." Dettorre-Baca made those comments in an interview in April from her father's home. She had moved there in the winter to be close to a Mayo Clinic where she was undergoing chemotherapy treatments for a third cancer, angiocarcinoma, which ended up taking her life. Her son accompanied her; he reportedly is returning to Danville.
When Dettorre-Baca's friends in Danville learned in January she had the rare form of cancer, which attacks the heart, they reciprocated the support many of them had received from her during their battles with breast cancer. Dettorre-Baca said he had received scores of e-mails, cards, letters and phone calls from her Danville friends since she had moved to Arizona. She said the notes and calls of support helped boost her morale, even though she fully realized the odds of her surviving her third battle were not good. She said in April she was pleased to have survived beyond the three months doctors had originally predicted for her, and she said the extra time she had been given was due to the support of family and friends. "I have good days and bad days, and my energy levels change, she said." But it is sunny and breezy here in Arizona, and it also helps that so many people back home in Danville care about me, while here in Arizona it's wonderful that my dad is with me and so very, very important that Antonio is with me. You can stop cooking but you can never stop being a mother." Danville AM

BANY, Charles David 'DAVE' -FAIRFIELD - Jazz guitarist Dave Bany had music in his blood. His father played string bass and rhythm guitar. His older brother John Bany is a string bass player in Chicago. His younger brother Michael Bany - who was killed in Cincinnati during a robbery after a performance in 1995 - was an electric bass player. "His ear, his technique, the way he could finger-pick his chord formations were all incredible," said his brother Mark E. Bany of Loveland. "His performance was one of those you have to hear and see to understand how good of a musician he was." Tom Brown, a drummer who played with Mr. Bany said: "Dave was a consummate entertainer. No matter what musical format Dave chose, he could always command a room." Years of smoking caught up with Mr. Bany, and he died Sunday of emphysema at his Fairfield residence. He was 62. Charles David Bany was born May 19, 1943, in Dayton, Ohio, to Barbara Stone Bany and Norbert Bernard Bany. He began playing guitar at 12 and studied with jazz guitarist Cal Collins. By the time he was 16, he was playing in clubs and recording. He graduated from Roger Bacon High School and served a hitch in the Navy (1962-64). He and his brother John formed a duo called the Baney Brothers in 1967. (They added the "e" to facilitate correct pronunciation.) The duo cut an album and appeared on the Nick Clooney and Bob Braun TV shows. Their brother Michael and drummer Don Gauck joined them in 1969, and they took their show on the road, performing as far west as Bismarck, N.D. During the summer of 1972, Mr. Bany organized the group David - which included Brown and Michael Bany. They debuted in Albany, Ga., and spent two years performing in cities from New York to Florida. The three merged with another trio to form All The King's Men. They booked a two-week engagement at a club in Richmond where the owner confused them with the "Kingsmen."
"Each night, he would holler out, 'Play your hit, fellas!' So we would play 'Louie, Louie' with Michael on vocals," Brown said. "I don't think the owner ever caught on. As a matter of fact, he wanted us back. Unfortunately, that was during the first gasoline shortage." So the band came home and soon disbanded. Mr. Bany performed solo until 1987, then moved to Chicago to perform with his brother John and nephew Martin Bany. He also played with Jim Bebee's Chicago Jazz All-Stars, and with Chuck Hedges Swingtet at a jazz club in Chicago called Andy's. He can be heard playing on the Swingtet recording "Live at Andy's." Mr. Bany moved back to Greater Cincinnati two years ago. In addition to his brothers John and Mark, survivors include daughters, Hope Madrigal of Lexington, Allison Bany of Fairfield and Bree Bany of Norwood; a son, Tommy Bany of Orlando, Fla.; a sister, Mary Murray of Charlotte, N.C.; and five granddaughters. The Bany family will host a memorial jazz concert in Mr. Bany's honor 4-9 p.m. Oct. 2 at the Blue Wisp Jazz Club. Memorials: Michael W. Bany Music Scholarship Fund, P.O.

Baugh, Bessie Rhea; About 8 o'clock Wednesday evening November 19th, 1919, Bessie Rhea Baugh, wife of W. Delton Baugh, departed this life and was wafted into the Great Beyond after an illness of only a few days. She was taken to the Somerset Sanitarium on Wednesday Nov. 12th, and tho all that loving hands could do they were unable to help her so her spirit took its peaceful flight to God who gave it. Mrs. Baugh was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Bailey of near Science Hill, Ky. Last June she and Mr. Baugh were quietly married at his home in Science Hill where they have since resided. She was a kind and loving wife and her many friends were numbered by her acquaintance. Her married life was very short but God in his wisdom saw fit to take her unto that beautiful shore where tears are smiles and sorrows unknown. She leaves a husband and a large circle of friends and relatives to mourn her loss.
In Loving Memory.All earthly ties are broken,In Life we meet no more;Our thoughts are with you Bessie,On yonder distant shore.Dearest Darling how we miss you,Since from earth you passed away;And our hearts are aching sorely,As we think of you today.Card of Thanks. I desire to express my sincere thanks to my relatives, friends and neighbors for their kindness shown in the sickness and death of my beloved wife, Bessie Rhea Baugh. I also wish to especially thank the nurses and attending physicians for their kindness and attention during her short illness. W. Delton Baugh.

BIZZARO, Elisha. The aviation community, friends and family mourn the passing of our brightest star, Elisha Spence Hall Bizzaro. She died on September 20th, (2001) less than one month shy of her 33rd birthday. She is survived by her mother, Elizabeth Martel of Shirley, MA; her father, George Hall of Harvard, MA and her sister Thomasin O'Donnell of Billerica, MA. Memorial services will be held at Executive Jet Management located at Lunken Airport on Wednesday, September 26th at 2 P.M. In lieu of flowers, the Elisha Hall Memorial Scholarship has been started through her local chapter of Women in Aviation, International as a way to honor other shining stars on their way to a professional aviation career. Donations may be written to Women In Aviation, Intl and may be mailed c/o Women In Aviation Heart of It All Chapter, P.O. Box 26104, Cincinnati, OH 45226. Prior to Elisha's graduation from Middlebury College, the first seeds of her flying future were being planted. After college she spent time in Russia managing a student exchange program. While there she also gained her first hands-on exposure to commercial flying-compliments of some Aeroflot pilots. When she came to Cincinnati in late sumer of 1997 she came with a private pilot's license and a dream of a flying career. Most recently as Manager of Dispatch for Executive Jet Management, she was able to continue her exposure to various other aspects of aviation while pursuing her love of flight. Friends, coworkers and family cheered and encouraged Lish as she accomplished her Instrument rating and earned both her Commercial Single and Multi-Engine Certificates. Immediately, she put them to good use as both a traffic watch pilot for Cincinnati Flight Training Center/B-105 and as a pilot for Richmond Skydiving. She also had just begun flying as an SIC on a Citation Jet. Her long-term flying goal was to become a DC-3 captain, an airplane with which everyone knew she had and enduring love affair. Incredibly, Lish had time for many other interests outside of her EJM job and her flying pursuits. She was both President and a founding member of the Cincinnati ""Heart of it all'' Chapter of Women in Aviation, International. Outside of aviation, her favorite hobby was riding her beautiful yellow Ducati with friends. She also enjoyed any activity that allowed her to be outdoors bathed in sunshine, snow, water or sand. She was a dog lover, an avid reader, a skier and snowboarder, a member of AOPA, a seasoned world traveler and an expert cheesecake maker. She was our supportive sister and loving daughter, our loyal friend and determined coworker, she was love and energy, she was dreams and hope and, always, she was her own best champion in her pursuit of happiness.

BLEVINS, Mitch - Published: August 23, 2006 - Local businessman dies in shooting; Mitch Blevins, 55, perished at Fishing Creek from self-inflicted gunshot wound: By CHRIS HARRIS CJ Staff WriterCommonwealth Journal:
A body was discovered at Fishing Creek Park in western Pulaski County on Monday night, the victim a suicide.Pulaski County Coroner Richard New said that Mitchell “Mitch” Blevins, 55, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Blevins reportedly got out of his vehicle in the parking lot overlooking the Fishing Creek area of Lake Cumberland off West Ky. 80 and shot himself. The call came in at about 6:20 p.m., and Blevins was pronounced dead at 6:45 p.m., according to New. “There was no pulse when EMS showed up,” said New. Authorities said that Blevins had left behind a note regarding the act as well. Sheriff Todd Wood said it didn’t appear that anyone else was around at the time of the death, although Blevins’ body was apparently discovered by someone on the premises, who alerted park attendant Betty Seibers.“I was over in the (attendant’s) building, and a man in the parking lot came running up. He said a guy in the parking lot shot himself,” said Seibers, who noted that she initially thought she might have misunderstood, but called 911 after clarifying the unfortunate report. “I was shocked,” Seibers said. “I’ve never seen anything like that before.” Wood said he believed there may have been some children down near the lakeshore, but that they were shielded from seeing what had occurred. Blevins, a self-employed hair stylist, leaves behind his parents, two brothers, a special aunt, a former wife and former mother-in-law, and two special friends, his dogs Louie and Allie, according to Lake Cumberland Funeral Home.

BULLOCK, Emily; BULLOCK, EMILY, A Corbin woman with ties to Somerset died yesterday after being struck by a car. Emily Bullock, 85, was struck on U.S. 25 by an elderly man who said he believed he had hit a dog and continued to drive home. Bullock and her husband, the late J.R. Bullock, were known by people in the Somerset area. The couple had resided in Somerset for more than two decades. During that time, J.R. Bullock had served as pastor at two local churches. He was pastor of Mt. Pisgah Baptist church from 1968 to 1972, and pastor at Campground Baptist Church from 1973 to 1980. The couple then moved to Corbin. According to Whitley County Sheriff Lawrence Hodge, 87-year-old Ben Bryant struck Mrs. Bullock and continued driving to his home on Rosetown Church Road in Corbin under the impression he had hit a dog. “He didn’t see her and thought he hit a dog,” Hodge said. “He went home and told his kids.” Hodge said that Bryant’s car sustained a cracked windshield and a broken headlight from the impact. He said the car was impounded as part of the investigation. He said alcohol was not involved, but a blood sample was taken from Bryant at the hospital. Bryant was not arrested and no charges have been filed at this point, said Hodge. There was no evidence of any intent or other criminal circumstances, he said. “There will be no charges,” said Hodge. “I talked to (Commonwealth’s Attorney Allen) Trimble and we’ll take it to the grand jury. He was just old and didn’t see her.” Hodge was called out at 4:40 p.m. and found Bullock’s body lying in the ditch. She was transported to the hospital by ambulance and died there, he said. Bryant had a license and was legal to drive, Hodge said, but only had sight in one eye. "He shouldn't have been driving," Hodge said. However, he said Bryant was on the road when the incident occurred. "He didn't leave the blacktop," Hodge said. "She must have been right on the edge of the road." Funeral arrangements are currently pending with Hart Funeral Home in Corbin. Commonwealth Journal

Son is charged with murder of his parents- An Albany man, arrested in Monticello two days before his parents’ bodies were discovered, has been charged with murder in connection with their deaths. State police charged Jonathan Jerome Burchett, 30, with murder on Wednesday, while he remained in custody at the Wayne County Detention Center. The investigation that led officials to the Clinton County residence, near the Wayne County line, where the bodies of Ronnie Burchett, 56, and his wife, Charlonia Burchett, 54, were found Monday, began in Monticello Saturday evening, when local officers stopped a suspicious vehicle on Evelyn Avenue. Burchett and Jarrod Hancock, 27, were taken into custody, after officers say they found evidence that connected the two men to a recent break-in at the Top Stop Store near Conley Bottom. The Wayne County Sheriff’s Department had been investigating the August 21 break-in, where cigarettes, lighters, a significant amount of cash and other items had been taken. At the time of the traffic stop, Hancock was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance first degree, possession of a controlled substance third degree, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of an open alcoholic beverage in a motor vehicle. Burchett was held on an outstanding warrant charging him with a forged check. Monticello Police later charged both men with third degree burglary and receiving stolen property over $300 in connection with the break-in at the market. During the investigation, Monticello Police Chief Melvin Rose said he became suspicious that something may have happened to the Burchett couple, who he was acquainted with. He said he visited the garage that Burchett ran on Monday, then visited the home that afternoon. Get the complete story from the Wayne County Outlook.
