Royce Lynn Templeton of Gilbertsville, passed away on Wednesday morning Jan. 4, 2023, in Okeechobee, Florida.
Royce was born on Nov. 13, 1949, in Paris, Texas, to Winfred and Evelyn Templeton. He was a man of faith and a member of Reidland Church, where he served as a shepherd, and loved and greeted everyone who walked thru the doors. Royce truly loved people, and his mission on earth was to share the Good News with everyone and to encourage everyone. He also taught a small group from church every week where in our studying we all grew in the faith because of Royce.
He always had a story to tell or a joke and loved having fun and making people laugh. Even at work Royce made it fun and all the employees loved him. Royce had a passion for fishing especially, crappie fishing which he loved doing the most. He was blessed to live on Kentucky Lake and loved fishing on Lake Okeechobee during the winter months.
In 1989 Royce, along with Marilyn started Marshall County Battery and Golf Carts. Retail sales was easy for Royce as he was most definitely a people person. They also started West Kentucky Golf Carts in Paducah, Kentucky in 1996 and Henry County Golf Carts, Paris, Tennessee in 2018. He had a team of loyal employees working alongside him and helping to grow the business to become one of EZGO's top 10 dealers in the United States.
In 1999 and 2000 Royce was named Marshall County Chamber of commerce Volunteer of the Year. He was so honored to receive these awards. It was particularly special to him since he loved Marshall County. He also loved the land and acquired a hobby farm that turned into a lot of hard work. Marilyn had horses and together they had big gardens where they grew blackberries, fruit trees, blueberries, and grape vineyard which kept Royce busy.
Royce is survived by his wife Marilyn of 33 years; three daughters, Angie Slokovic (Lorens) of Flagler Beach, Florida, Malissa Pruitt of Gilbertsville, and Laura Higgins (Jason) of Grand Rivers; one son, Scott Templeton (Wendy) of Keller, Texas; one brother, Terry Templeton (Sherrie) of Grandbury, Texas; 10 grandchildren, Trevor Pruitt, Alexa Neal, Danika Harris, Ryan Neal, Tricia Templeton, Macee Pruitt, Lakyn Dickerson, Ty Higgins, Mya Higgins, and Ava Higgins; four great grandchildren, Madison Pruitt, Adley Pruitt, Payson Pruitt and Alana Stacy.
Royce was preceded in death by his parents Winfred "Wimpy" and Evelyn Templeton; and his sister, Joan Heller; and his grandparents all from Texas.
To know Royce was a gift and he never met a stranger, his laugh was contagious and he touched so many lives. Royce loved traveling and vacationing. Thank you to our traveling buddies, Jerry and Sissy Wommack, Jay and Carolyn Siener, our family Richard and Malinda Colburn, and Dennis and Rhonda Beard for so many good memories over the years.
Expressions of sympathy may be made to New Pathways for Children 3311 Shaw Rd, Melber, KY 42069 or to the Hope Clinic, 1100 Olive St, Benton, KY 42025.
Funeral services were held on Thursday, Jan. 12, 2023, at Reidland Church. Terrell Lee and Brian Brophy officiated and burial followed at Wilson Cemetery.
Filbeck-Cann Funeral Home of Milner & Orr is handling the arrangements.

This evaluation examined the role and development of the East Midlands Broadband Consortium (embc) and the benefits of broadband connections to schools.
Overall, staff in schools with broadband had more positive views about the impact of connectivity than staff in schools without broadband. For teachers, the benefits of connectivity were more apparent in relation to activities directly related to teaching, such as enabling collaborative work, accessing resources and sharing good practice, than in relation to reducing time spent on management and administrative tasks.
Both teaching and administrative staff recognised the contribution of connectivity to their own professional development and to that of colleagues, but both groups also saw a need for further professional development in order to maximise the impact of connectivity in their schools.
The case studies of schools being carried out in Phase 2 of this study will focus on schools with broadband, and will explore in greater depth the ways in which connectivity is being used in teaching and learning, and how embc can contribute to greater and more effective use of connectivity in the future.

He said they had not decided on a name yet. "The baby's a little bit overdue so we've had a little bit of time to think about it, that's the next bit. For us we'll be seeing you guys in probably two days time as planned," Harry said.
He said the birth of his son was "amazing" and he was "over the moon."
"I haven't been at many births. This is definitely my first birth. It was amazing…. I'm so incredibly proud of my wife. As every father and parent would ever say, your baby is absolutely amazing. This little thing is absolutely to die for. So I'm just over the moon."

Although this particular royal birth broke with some recent royal traditions, Harry and Meghan kept to one dating from the centuries before modern communications: The posting of an announcement of the birth on an easel at the gates of Buckingham Palace.
Framed in wood and set on a gold-painted easel, the announcement said" "The Queen and the Royal Family are delighted at the news that Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Sussex was safely delivered of a son at 0526am today. Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well."
The official announcement of the actual birth came about an hour after the palace released a statement that said Meghan, 37, had gone into labor in the early hours of Monday with Harry by her side.
But we aren't likely to know officially where the baby was born – possibly at home at Frogmore Cottage at Windsor – or see the family together for at least a while. Harry, 34, and Meghan announced last month they intend to keep the birth private initially.

The baby is Queen Elizabeth II's eighth great-grandchild, seventh in line to the throne, and the first American, mixed-race baby ever born into the royal family.
It is unlikely the child will have a title of "Royal Highness" under current rules, unless the queen chooses to intervene.
It is possible the baby was born at Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Castle estate, Harry and Meghan's newly renovated home. If so, this would be the first royal at-home birth since the queen delivered her four children at Buckingham Palace or Clarence House between 1948 and 1964. Prior to 1977, when the queen's daughter, Princess Anne, delivered her first child at St. Mary's Hospital in London, all senior royal births took place at home.
In April, following weeks of conflicting media reports about where the baby would be born and under what circumstances, Buckingham Palace (where Harry and Meghan's new office is based) announced that the couple had made "a personal decision to keep the plans around the arrival of their baby private.
"The Duke and Duchess look forward to sharing the exciting news with everyone once they have had an opportunity to celebrate privately as a new family."
So, for this royal birth there was no media mob waiting outside St. Mary's Hospital in London, where Duchess Kate of Cambridge's three children in the last six years were born.
Instead, the couple are expected to appear with the baby to pose for a small pool of photographers on the Windsor Castle grounds Wednesday.

Harry and Meghan's choices are different from brother Prince William and sister-in-law Duchess Kate, but they are not entirely unprecedented. Others of the queen's grandchildren and great-grandchildren have been born in hospitals other than St. Mary's, without the attendant hoopla surrounding the birth of a child born close to the throne.

The Sussex baby is not going to be a future monarch. But the "American royal baby" is still of enormous public interest in the United Kingdom, and not just as the child of Harry and the grandchild of the late Princess Diana. The baby is also the child of Meghan Markle, the divorced, biracial American actress, who swept Harry off his feet three years ago and brought some Hollywood glamour and California insouciance into the tradition-ruled royal family.
Baby Sussex will be the first royal baby from the Sussex line born in hundreds of years, the first half-American royal baby, and the first baby born into the royal family ever to be acknowledged to have part-African descent.
The baby will be seventh in line to the throne, behind Prince Harry, who is currently sixth in line.
The couple recently moved out of Kensington Palace, where they shared a cramped two-bedroom flat, into new digs at Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Castle estate (not to be confused with grander Frogmore House) about 22 miles west of London.
The manor house, near to Frogmore House where the couple held one of their wedding receptions last year, is thus more secluded and secure behind the gates of Windsor Castle than at Kensington, located in the busy, noisy heart of central London.
The child's name typically isn't disclosed for at least a few days. Will he be a prince or merely an earl? That decision is up to the queen, 93, who usually follows a set of general rules about such things laid down in 1917 by her grandfather, King George V.
The queen already has seven other great-grandchildren. Four – the grandchildren of her daughter, Princess Anne – have no titles.
But the three children of her grandson Prince William, son to Prince Charles and second in line to the throne, and his wife, Duchess Kate, all have royal titles: Prince George, 5, Princess Charlotte, who turned 4 on May 2, and Prince Louis, who turned 1 year old on April 23.
William and Kate's babies were all born in the Lindo Wing of St. Mary's Hospital in London, not far from Kensington Palace and also the birthplace of William and Harry in the 1980s.
But many things about this latest little royal are different than all those who came before.
The baby will have dual British and American citizenship, at least initially: Meghan is still an American and is the process of acquiring British citizenship. Under American law a baby born abroad to a U.S. citizen automatically acquires American citizenship at birth if the parent was born and raised in the U.S., as Meghan was.
Also, this is the first Baby Sussex in hundreds of years. Harry is the first royal to hold the title Duke of Sussex (bestowed by the queen on his wedding day) since the last holder got the title in 1801. And that duke never had any legitimate children.

How Do You Handle It When a Favorite App or Service Is Discontinued?
By Laura Tucker – Posted on Sep 21, 2018 Sep 21, 2018 in Opinions
Sometimes we can become quite dependent on our everyday apps and services that help us with productivity or even help us enjoy our downtime. These apps and services just seem to make everything go swimmingly. But what happens when the developers decide to pull them and they disappear? How do you handle it when a favorite app or service is discontinued?
Ryan explains that with so many competitive apps/services that are available, he feels it would be "incredibly rare if I didn't jump ship to a better app/service before the initial app/service was shut down." He uses MySpace as an example, noting that everyone he knew had already migrated to Facebook before MySpace was even completely dead.
He can't even think of a particular app or service that he used but was forced to stop using because it was discontinued. "If an app/service is shut down, chances are it's due to the fact that someone else is doing it better."
Damien agrees with Ryan that with millions of apps out there, "you are sure to find several other apps that are better or have the exact same functionality as the existing one." His only concern is how to migrate data from one app to the next, and that's why he only uses apps that have a central syncing option.
For Ada it depends on the app/service, as not all are easily replaceable. When her first mail provider discontinued the service, she spent days looking for an alternative. The worst part about switching providers for her was notifying everyone of her email change. "It was a painful experience, and I lost data in the process."
Alex says "sometimes you find an app that just works perfectly for you, providing exactly the features you need." While he doesn't use many apps that are in danger of being discontinued, he worries regularly about the essential apps that are on the edge. He points out it's especially true for open-source projects that can be quickly abandoned or server-side functionality for apps that end up being less popular than originally expected.
"No app or service is permanent in the digital world, and you must always be ready to abandon ship when forced." It creates a somewhat "ultra low-grade loss anxiety" for him whenever he thinks about it.
Phil lays out the steps of his tongue-in-cheek process:
Freak out. Spend the day shouting at nobody in particular.
Silent anguish. Augh. Maybe I should have been a better customer.
1000-word rage on Facebook and start petitions.
Post on Facebook how it's pointless, and in fact, what's the point of anything? Post pictures of black voids with a single emoji in the center.
Wake up one day and, huh, realize you don't miss it.
Start brainstorming other options; try out some likely candidates.
Find a new service that not only replaces the one I lost, but as it turns out is better. Move forward into a bright future.
Miguel just looks for alternatives, codes his own way out of the problem, or just finds a way to live with the features he had. A real-life example centers on a financial management app he used for years. He just kept the APK and continued using it, stubbornly, despite it no longer being supported. "If a better one appears, I will use it."
Fabio says that "after just sitting there in shock that my favorite app will soon be gone," he tries to find the best alternative, if there is any.
Andrew is another who agrees with Ryan. He can't really remember the last time an app he was actively using shut down and forced him into an alternative. Some apps have started charging fees or something similar, which leads him to look for an alternative and try to port his data over. Mostly, though, "I'll jump ship if an app/service starts going downhill."
The reason we're even talking about this topic this week is because Google has decided to kill off Inbox, and I'm quite distraught. I have searched for hours and can't find anything I like as much to do the things I like to do with email, despite how many email apps there are. The same thing happens with my writing apps. I'm very particular, so it's hard to find one that does everything I need, despite the fact that everyone and their brother seems to have developed one.
I guess when all is said and done, I follow Phil's plan. Which is a shame, as I actually love trying out new apps and switching things up, just for a change of pace if nothing else. But when I HAVE to switch and can't find anything I like, I got into a state of mourning.
Do you feel like many of our writers that there are so many available apps that you are always bound to find one that will suffice? Or do you go into a panic knowing you won't ever find an app as special as that again? How do you handle it when a favorite app or service is discontinued? Let us know how you deal with it in the comments section.

I throw a hissy fit, stamp my feet and then move on to another app that does pretty much the same job.

I have found some programs and apps that have been discontinued. Some of which I really like or feel that there is not a better program (or I have not yet found a better one). Therefore, I backup all of my "essential" programs and Android apps. That way I then can still use a program until some OS update renders it useless, and/or an alternative can be found.
So far only one service has stopped that I often used where I could not find and equivalent alternative. It was a company's online service accessed when the program from that same company was converting from a PDF to Word document. That large, almost to the point of a monopoly, OCR company basically was forcing old users to buy their new program to use essentially the same service, but with a different conversion site link online. Okay, I have found a reliable alternative for that program/service, but I'd have to pay again (to the same company).

The best movie trailer that I ever saw was Quentin Tarantino's for Pulp Fiction. It starts out with slow classical music and an authoritative voice detailing the movie's awards—interrupted by a gun shot. What follows is a variety of scenes from the movie overlaid with the film's now iconic soundtrack. It lasts three minutes and features enough stars to populate the Pacific Palisades. A book trailer—particularly an author-financed one—can't be anything like that. Forget dreams of a fast montage that gives viewers a sense of how the story flows. Setting up each scene and hiring the actors necessary is cost-prohibitive. I've learned that the hard way after producing three book trailers for my first three thrillers: Dark Turns, The Widower's Wife, and Lies She Told, all published by Crooked Lane Books. For a reasonable book trailer that doesn't look like a hodgepodge of stock photos strung together with a Ken Burns effect (as so many do), you get one scene, one setting, and one actor to tell your story. For my latest book trailer, I hired Alice Teeple, a NYC-based photographer and videographer to come to my house and take a series of still shots that she would turn into the trailer. We found rights free, stock sound on YouTube of a camera flash. I play the dead body and wrote the music. The original plan was to have my husband write the reviews on my body with marker. Right before filming, however, he realized he could project them with a mini projector that we use to watch movies outside in the summer. My skin thanks him. Scrubbing off permanent marker is no easy feat. The whole thing cost less than $600 to make. It has since been featured on Crime By The Book and other blogs, helping reinvigorate some of the publicity surrounding the novel. Have you ever made a book trailer? How did you do it and how much did it cost?
