Reports of Vandalism in City Park

April 9, 2017 by Matt Larson, Big Sioux Media

VandelismInParkThe Dell Rapids City Council reported vandalism to Deputy Lowe of the Minnehaha County Sheriff’s Office during their regular meeting on Monday, April 3rd.  Deputy Lowe asked if there were any concerns from the council during the meeting.

“It was brought to my attention from the girls scouts that in city park that someone defecated on the slides on top and there is quite a bit of graffiti,” said city councilman Barry Berg.

It was noted that some of the vandalism happened the weekend of April 1st and April 2nd.  The city’s public works department cleaned the slides on Monday, April 3rd.  The girls scouts have plans to attend the next council meeting on Monday, April 17th, to present an idea to the council of cleaning up the graffiti in the caboose.

It was also asked of Deputy Lowe if there were other reports of break-ins other than a recent garage break-in in Dell Rapids, but Deputy Lowe reported back that there hasn’t been a string of break-ins since late December to early January which were a couple of storage sheds. 

Even though Deputy Lowe reported there hasn’t been a string of break-in reports, there have been other issues of vandalism and theft in the past few weeks. Alliecat Creations in downtown Dell Rapids had windows broken out on March 18th, and there are posts on Facebook of a recent theft of a canoe.

Tom Merry

April 8, 2017 by Matt Larson, Big Sioux Media

Tom MerryThomas “Tom” Merry, 91, of Dell Rapids, passed away on Tuesday, April 4, 2017 at his home. His memorial service will begin at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, April 10, 2017 in the First Baptist Church, Dell Rapids. An inurnment ceremony with military rites will begin at 10:00 a.m. prior to the service in the Dell Rapids Cemetery. Visitation will be held on Sunday, April 9, 2017 starting at 5:00 p.m. with the family present after the Master’s golf tournament until 8:00 p.m. in the First Baptist Church, Dell Rapids.  On-line condolences may be left at the Kahler Funeral Home website.

Thomas “Tom” Raymond Merry was born November 24, 1925, in Dell Rapids, South Dakota, the son of Henry and Anna Janette (Qualseth) Merry. He grew up in Dell Rapids and graduated from Dell Rapids High School in 1943. He began College at South Dakota State University and was a member of the varsity basketball team. While he was a good athlete, he claims he made the team only because the others were serving in the military during World War II. His college and basketball careers were also interrupted when he was ordered to report. While going down the hallway to the Army office, Tom passed by an open door that said Navy above the door. He inquired of the young man behind the desk if it was too late to become a seaman, and the answer was “come on in”.

While Tom was training in Southern California he met Julia “Judy” Whitlock who was working at the Naval Ammunition Depot in Fallbrook, California. Tom and Judy hit it off right away, and Tom called his dad to say he and Judy were going to get married. His dad dismissed it as perhaps youthful “not quite” maturity. After a brief courtship, they were married on June 7, 1945. When Tom’s sister, Reefa, came for a visit, and found they were married, she said “Tommy, you had better call your dad!”

Following the war and Tom’s discharge from the Navy in August, 1945, they moved to Brookings so both could continue their education at South Dakota State. Tom could no longer make the basketball team, but to get into the games, and considering they were dirt poor, he followed in the footsteps of his older brother, Howard “Jiggs”, and became a cheerleader so he could get in free. Tom and the Dean of the math department became good friends and “billiard buddies”. The Dean would get Tom out of class to shoot billiards which Tom became very good at, and billiards tournaments helped with the family finances. Tom graduated in 1949 with a degree in engineering, and his first job was with the Trane Company in Salt Lake City and then Boise, Idaho, where Max was born in 1949. In 1951 Tom and Judy moved back to Dell Rapids, and Tom joined his dad and brother, “Jiggs”, in the John Deere Implement business known as Dells Motor Co. Sue was born in 1952, and Ray was born in 1960. Tom and Jiggs continued to work in the business after it was sold and relocated to the Dells Interstate Exchange. They considered the 3 mile drive a commute and packed their lunches. Tom retired in 1989.

Tom was an avid sports fan, playing amateur baseball and basketball. He was one of the founders of the Dell Rapids Golf Course in the early to mid-1960’s. He was instrumental in the original layout, which for the most part went in a counter clockwise direction. Trouble was generally on the right. Tom never sliced the ball but was prone to hook the ball to the left, thus designing the course to suit himself. In later years, senior citizen golf was more about scrounging golf balls than serious golf. Tom was in charge of rodent control, and he was an excellent shot. The course was gopher-less for many years. Tom’s greatest interest was young people, and over the years he came to know many. Whether it was a basketball game, football game, track meet, volleyball game, baseball game, etc., whether varsity, junior varsity or younger, quite often he would be there. Tom is a 3-time recipient of the Booster of the Year Award at Dell Rapids Public High, most recently with his close friend and “care giver”, Don Sagmoe. Tom regularly handed out Tootsie Roll Pops to “kids”, even in their 60’s. In the summer he would stop by the local swimming pool and take Blizzard orders from the staff, which he would buy and deliver. If he knew you, you’d get a hug. If he didn’t, you may still get a hug. He loved kids and just enjoyed people.

Tom was preceded in death by his wife, Judy. Tom’s family includes his sister, Reefa Hanenberger, of Laguna Woods, California, his son, Max (wife, Cheryl) of Dell Rapids, daughter, Sue Pond (husband, Graeme) of Melbourne, Australia, son, Ray (Christine Farragher) of Eagle, Colorado, three grandchildren, Lindsay Merry (Joe Espinoza), Jessica Pond (Nick Uren), Sarah Burnett (husband, Justin) and four great-grandchildren, Brooklyn Merry, Paisley Espinoza, Hamish Burnett and Abby Burnett, Judy’s sister, Sammy McKay ( husband, Howard) of Snohomish, WA., and many nieces and nephews.

The family requests memorials be given to the First Baptist Church of Dell Rapids, where Tom was a lifelong member.
