Insecticide to blame?
By Damian Gessel
The Daily Item
September 09, 2007

Beekeeper David Hackenberg pried open a wooden bee box behind his Milton-based apiary. Italian honeybees - the docile bee equivalent to golden retrievers - swarmed around him in a cloud. He squeezed his smoker and a plume of gray smoke surrounded the confused bees, allowing him to pull out a bee-covered comb.
"This hive's a goner," he said.

David D. Chapman
David D. Chapman, 58, passed away Tuesday, February 6, 2007, at Evangelical Community Hospital, Lewisburg.
It is not the way a man dies that is of consequence, but consideration may be due for the way he lived. Dave Chapman lived a noteworthy life. It is said he had "a way." A way of making an emergency seem a little less dire. A way of patience and consistency when a need was great and prolonged. A way of conversing with a person that communicated he was with you, and that was the most important place he could be at the moment. A way of disarming the hostile, calming those out of control, and lightening the burden of the weary. Most importantly, he had a way of knowing what was right, locking onto this truth, holding his ground and dragging the rest of us to a higher level of fairness, justice and awareness of others.

Disease Killing Bees
By John Finnerty
The Daily Item
February 09, 2007

One day last November, David Hackenberg, of Lewisburg, went out to check on some of his honey bees and found the 400 hives completely empty. There was no sign of the bees, dead or alive. There was no sign that a predator had been there, and no other bugs had moved in.

Something was horribly wrong.
