Earl Seipp, 92 son of Westminster Police Chief

Earl Seipp Obituary Westminster, MD - Earl Seipp age 92, of Westminster, died February 5, 2022 in Randallstown, MD from heart-related problems.

A memorial service will be held for Earl Seipp at the Carroll Lutheran Village's Krug Chapel on Friday, February 18th, 2022, at 3:00 pm. The address is 300 St. Luke Circle Westminster, MD 21158.

Born July 4, 1929, in Westminster, Maryland. Earl was a lifelong resident of Carroll County.

Earl Seipp was the son of the late Charles L. Seipp (former Westminster City Chief of Police) and Helen (Rhodes) Seipp. Earl graduated from Westminster High School in 1947.

He married Elizabeth Jane (White) Seipp in April 1958. Together they raised two daughters, Robin and Heidi. Betty predeceased Earl in June 1997. Soon after her death, Earl took residence at Carroll Lutheran Village where he spent the rest of his life.

Earl served in the U.S. Army from 1948-1951. He was stationed in post-WWII Germany and later in Washington, D.C. He used his VA benefits to pursue a B.A. in Sociology from Western Maryland College.

He had a long career as a life insurance salesman – "selling something no one wants" as he frequently said. He loved horses, shooting sports, photography, high diving, and conservative politics.

Earl was a long-time member of the V.F.W. and served as their chaplain for a decade. Earl was fond of telling stories and reminiscing about the past.

His daughters, Robin Hanna of Florida and Heidi Berry of Virginia survive along with Heidi's husband, Russ, and their two sons Seth, his wife Michelle, and Roberto.

Earl's brother, Darryl Seipp and his wife Judy both reside in Westminster. Earl was predeceased by a sister, LaRue Blizzard and his brothers Charles Seipp Jr., Robert Seipp, and Jack Seipp.

WSJ: Trucks Are Clogging America’s Roads, Delivering Goods and Tearing up Yards


WSJ: Trucks Are Clogging America’s Roads, Delivering Goods and Tearing up Yards

Interesting to come across this article at a time when many of us have noticed an uptick in truck traffic in Westminster. I was pondering that much of the additional traffic was a result of more folks relying upon GPS directions – which often lack common sense – or are simply incorrect. As a consequence, for example, it leads trucks from one end of Main Street to the other – and not suggesting that truck drivers use Rte 140 instead.

“Trucks Are Clogging America’s Roads,” By David Harrison / Photographs by Kendrick Brinson for The Wall Street Journal January 26, 2022 - The surge won’t likely die down even once supply chain clogs ease, and the impact is falling heavily on neighborhood streets

ATLANTA—Trucks are taking over American roads, fueled by a rise in pandemic online shopping and disruptions to global supply chains.

Along the way they’re chewing up pavement, adding to congestion and infuriating residents, who must contend with 18-wheelers and delivery trucks as soon as they pull out of their driveways. They’re also causing headaches for state and local governments that face multibillion-dollar bills to finance road upkeep and expansions.

The thousands more delivery trucks on neighborhood streets and tractor trailers on interstate highways are solving one problem by creating another.

“Folks don’t like them in their neighborhoods,” said Seth Millican, a transportation expert at the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. “But they want the package they order from Amazon, and they want it in two days.”

Those strains converge in Atlanta’s Riverside neighborhood, home to Dustin Hillis, a city council member, who has spent years trying to keep tractor trailers off its residential streets.

“Not a week goes by that I don’t get complaints about trucks running over street signs, stop signs, electrical poles, cutting through people’s yards,” he said.

One of Mr. Hillis’s Riverside constituents, Don Penovi, has taken it upon himself to walk the streets, sometimes wearing a yellow vest, to guide errant trucks back to the highway and to call the city to replace destroyed street signs.

“It seems like it’s been getting worse the last six, eight months or so,” he said.

Our changing shopping habits have led to more trucks on the road. David Harrison from the Wall Street Journal has the story. https://soundcloud.com/thismorningshow/trucks-are-clogging-americas-roads-delivering-goods-and-tearing-up-yards

February is Black History Month


February is Black History Month. The annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history can trace its origins to 1926, when a black scholar named Carter G. Woodson launched a week-long campaign to focus national attention on the contributions of black people on American society. Submitted photo

McDaniel hosts Black History Month Convocation Feb. 16 featuring Rev. Tutu


McDaniel hosts Black History Month Convocation Feb. 16 featuring Rev. Tutu

McDaniel College has announced the inaugural Black History Month Convocation featuring human rights activist Rev. Nontombi Naomi Tutu

The hour-long event takes place Wed., Feb. 16, at 6 p.m. (doors open at 5:45 p.m.), in WMC Alumni Hall 2 College Hill, Westminster, Md. and is free and open to the public. A livestream via Zoom will also be available through advance registration.

Welcome remarks will be provided by McDaniel College President Julia Jasken. Richard M. Smith, associate provost for equity and belonging at McDaniel, will introduce Rev. Tutu.


Rev. Tutu shares her experiences as a human rights advocate as well as growing up as the daughter of the late Desmond Tutu in apartheid South Africa.

Rev. Nontombi Naomi Tutu is the third child of the late Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, who died Dec. 26, 2021, at the age of 90, and Nomalizo Leah Tutu. She was born in South Africa and has divided her adult life between South Africa and the United States.

The challenges of growing up Black and female in apartheid South Africa have inspired her activism for human rights. Those experiences taught her that our whole human family loses when we accept situations of oppression, and how the teaching and preaching hate and division injure us all.

She started her public speaking as a college student at Berea College in Kentucky in the 1970s and her professional experience ranges from being a development consultant in West Africa to coordinating programs on race and gender, as well as gender-based violence prevention education at the African Gender Institute at the University of Cape Town. She is a consultant for the Spiritual Alliance to Stop Intimate Violence (SAIV) and the Foundation for Hospices in Sub-Saharan Africa (FHSSA).

This inaugural Black History Month Convocation was founded by McDaniel College President Julia Jasken as a new signature event to be held annually at McDaniel in recognition of Black History Month. This annual event will provide an opportunity to hear from prominent individuals working towards social justice and racial equity.

Welcome remarks will be provided by President Jasken and Richard M. Smith, associate provost for equity and belonging at McDaniel, will introduce Rev. Tutu.
