VOL. 30, NO. 8 TUESDAY, FEB. 19, 1991 THREE SECTIONS, 40 PAGES 50 CENTS Islander arrested on grand theft, forgery charges

By Louise Henigman Islander staff writer In what's being called the biggest arrest on Sanibel since a 1985 murder, island resident Constance Methvin "Connie" Heldenbrand of Anchor Drive was charged Thursday, Feb. 14, with stealing more than $100,000 from her Sanibel employer, Dr. Rob Simmons. According to the arrest report, Heldenbrand, 42, stole the money from Simmons and office partner Dr. Ernest J. Gesiotto while she worked as their office manager and bookkeeper. She reportedly forged her name on their business checks and then deposited the funds into her personal banking account. Simmons told police that when he confronted Heldenbrand about the thefts, she admitted that she had committed the crimes over a period of about 1 1/2 years, which is the length of time she was employed there. Simmons reported this to the police Feb. 8. A police investigation revealed well in excess of 10 business checks of Simmons that had been made payable to cash, with Simmons' signature forged on them. They were endorsed "For Deposit Only" to the personal account of Heldenbrand and her husband. In a sworn statement, Simmons identified the check signatures as forgeries, and said that he never gave Heldenbrand permission to make out the checks, sign his name on them or deposit them Kenneth Rodway checks the damage to the pier and the "Ruwach."

K©PP©T continued from page 1A ' scientific breakthroughs, possibly in biological control. Lindblad pointed out that with this amendment the incentive is lost for a developer to donate the land and have it preserved forever. Commissioner Jim Krieger pointed out that there was little economic advantage for donation if the developer also has to go to great expense for pepper removal. Krieger said it would be worth the developer's wait for a different Planning Commission, City Council or a different set of rules. The tax advantage is a relatively small consideration, he said. Commissioner Ernie Klaudt disagreed, saying that the extra units and financial breaks still would be attractive to the developers. He also said there was no way SCCF could clear and maintain the donated lands without the city becoming a partner in the pepper removal. There's no point in the taxpayer paying more ad valorem taxes when the job of pepper removal can get done just as well with this ordinance, Klaudt argued. Commissioner Bob Davison said it was pure speculation to think a future council would grant more density on a given parcel of land, which already has a set density. He said the commission should act on the facts as they exist today. Developer Warren Stringer simply stated that he won't give land if this ordinance is passed. He said if he's going to be forced to pay $200,000 to remove pepper from his large parcel, he'd ralher keep the land and do what he wants to do. Stringer also brought up the enforcement aspect.

Laura Scurry recalls that Island Inn in 1952, Irene Preston was ready to pack it sometimes she did not even recognize her mother and in, pack up and return to her children and home in how much this hurt her.

Then so was she. it was on to South Hampton, Long Island, N.Y., to work the summer months at a resort there. In 1963, when they stopped at Thomasville at the end of the summer, Irene flatly refused to go on without the children. A few weeks later, Roosevelt called her from Sanibel to tell her that he had bought a trailer and built onto it to make room for the whole family. What he didn't tell them was that there was no bathroom and they would have to use one in their old quarters. Nevertheless, Irene would have their children with her, both her own and Roosevelt's by his former marriage. Irene and Roosevelt Jr. Later, the Island Inn Company, which had bought the inn in 1957, removed the old buildings and built concrete block houses for its employees. At last, the party for which they did the cooking. Until then, Prestons had a nice home of their own. there were gifts for all but no fanfare. When Roosevelt first did jobs for them in 1934, Looking back on their hardships, Irene admits that Mrs. Hallie Matthews and her daughter, Charlotta, she and her husband were overworked and underpaid, were managing the hotel, which at that time was but she shows no resentment and bears no grudge. known as The Matthews. It was they who established She explains it very simply, "We were family." the feeling of family which would remain through the Two of the older Preston sons, Rosco and Willie years.

Today, she is. executive director of housekeeping at the hotel, so very different from what it used to be. Roosevelt, who was born in Troy, Ala., first came to Sanibel in 1934 and by the time he died in 1981, he had become "a fixture" at Island Inn. He had four children from a previous marriage — Louise, Roy, Roscoe and Willie Frank - all of whom would eventually live with him and Irene on the island, as did their stepsisters and brothers, Thelma, Laura, Matthew, Calvin and Roosevelt Jr. In the early days, however, no provision was mad e for the children. There were two building for housing the employees, each with one bathroom and four bedrooms and one of these had a living room for socializing. Irene and Roosevelt shared a room with two other people with only a curtain for privacy. Not that they spent much time there. They were up very early in order to get into the bathroom before they had to report to the dining room at 6 a.m. There they set up tables then waited on the guests as they come in for breakfast. After that they cleaned the guests' rooms until lunch time, repeated their dining room routine, cleaned rooms and then hurried back to their quarters for a quick shower and a change into white uniforms. Often, it was 10 p.m. or later by the time they had served dinner and cleared the tables. But that was not the end of the working day for Irene. She did laundry for the guests, washing everything in a big #3 washtub with a wash board one evening and ironing it the next. She charged 5 cents for a pair of socks, 15 cents for underwear, 25 cents for shirts and 30 cents for dresses, with or without ruffles. This money, Roosevelt at the Island Inn in the 1940s.

•:••;;< A memorable red, and green, Valentine's Day Today, when I opened the mailbox that had been only partially closed, out jumped some frogs, which reminded me of another time when the jumping of frogs created a memorable scene. Our second grade teacher's assignment was for the girls of the class, seven in all, to walk to Fontenot's grocery store, two blocks away, to select a box for use on Valentine's day. She reminded us that it had to be a large box, with a lid that lifted off. This was South Louisiana in the early '30s and I was seven years old. The seven of us worked diligently, with great love and care, to cover the box with the Cupids and hearts we made by ourselves. The box became our daily Wildlife Day Poster Contest task, for our goal was to make it the prettiest in our school. Students at Sanibel Elementary School were introduced to the 1991 Wildlife Day Poster Contest last week with a special slide presentation. The contest is open to all elementary-age students. Whenever the boys of the class passed by, they The deadline for entries is March 1.
