RAWLINGS, Don R. Rawlings. Don R. Rawlings, former Danville High principal, coach dies. Don R. Rawlings, 73, of Boone Trail, a former educator, died Friday at home of natural causes. He was employed by the Danville School System for 35 year as principal at Danville High School and as basketball coach. Jerry Boyd, who was assistant principal at Danville High from 1964-71, today recalled Rawlings' kindness to faculty, students and parents and dedication to providing the best possible environment for learning for all children. ``I'd like to have the big bag filled with all the kind things Don did for people. He did a lot of things for people that few people knew about,'' said Boyd, now an executive with Sellers Engineering. ``Don really and truly cared about kids. He also felt an obligation to tell some people some things they didn't want to hear but had to hear,'' he said. Rawlings was principal at the time that the high school was integrated. It was a controversial time but Rawlings led a relatively smooth transition for the school and community, Boyd said. ``Those were tough times for all educators. But Don stuck to his goal of creating an educational institution for all kids, regardless of their backgrounds,'' he said. ``And that fit right with his overall concern for all young people. He cared about them, no matter who they were or where they were from.''. Rawlings was a member and past president of Kentucky High School Athletic Association; and member and past president of Danville Kiwanis Club. In 1963 he was a charter member of Kentucky Athletic Hall of Fame. He was a former president of Central Kentucky Conference and in 1977 he was given the Kentucky Association of School Administrators Leadership Award. In 1985 he was honored by Laurel County Schools for ``Devoted and Unselfish Service in the Field of Education.

ROBINSON, Ballard Robinson. Ballard Robinson, long-time postmaster, school board member dies at 54. The Junction City post office has lost its long-time chief. The Boyle County school system has lost its ``best friend.''. Ballard Lee Robinson, postmaster of Junction City for 31 years and a member of the Boyle County Board of Education for 17 years, died Saturday at Ephraim McDowell Regional Medical Center after a long illness. Robinson, a resident of 145 Hancock St., was 54. Robinson's role as school board member - he was vice chairman at the time of his death and had served as chairman - was remembered fondly and emotionally Saturday by fellow board members and a former superintendent of the Boyle system. They also recalled his many years of service as the public address announcer for the Boyle County High School football and boys' basketball teams - his role as the ``voice of the Rebels.''. ``Ballard was the greatest friend I ever had,'' said board chairman Eddie Caldwell, who has been on the panel for 11 years. ``He was truly a friend, not only to me but to the whole district.''. Robinson had a direct impact on the growth and improvement in the district's academic programs, sports programs and facilities over the years, Caldwell said. ``He had a lot to do with the $2.3-million package of technology projects we recently approved as well as the recent press box and stadium improvements and the renovation of the high school a few years ago,'' said Caldwell. ``But more important, he wanted to make sure each and every student could grow academically and athletically and that each and every teacher and staff member would be given the necessary time and tools to help them,'' he said. Robinson ``never thought of himself or of power or anything like that,'' said Caldwell. ``He only thought of the students and employees and what was best for them and the district.''. Caldwell remembered how Robinson not only was a fan of Boyle County teams but also a participant, at least on the sideline. ``He really enjoyed announcing those football and basketball games. It made him feel a part of something he really loved,'' said Caldwell. ``It won't be long before students, parents, teachers - everybody in the system - will realize how much he meant. A voice for them is now silent,'' he said. Preston Miles, who's been on the school board for seven years, said he regarded Robinson as his ``mentor. ``I learned a great deal from Ballard. He was a mentor to me and really was, because of his long experience and intelligence and dedication, an educator to the whole board,'' said Miles. ``He was a real leader who had a real fundamental understanding of how to effectively balance academic, special education, extracurricular, transportation and all the other various programs and give each the attention it deserved. ``The one thing, though, that made him a strong and effective leader was that he saw students as individuals with special potential, talents and needs,'' Miles said. Emajo Carlton, who retired as Boyle superintendent in 1993, said that many people in the county district ``don't realize how many contributions'' Robinson made to the system. ``There are so many programs and facilities and issues where he had an impact but what stood out to me overall was his character,'' Carlton said. ``He was sensible, level-headed and caring and always put what he thought was best for the system at the top of his list. He was a unique person.''. And, Carlton said, he also was one of her best friends. ``I've lost a dear, personal friend. But more than that, the Boyle school community has lost its best friend.''. The Boyle County superintendent's office next week will announce the process governing how a replacement on the board will

be selected. Robinson represented the Junction City area. Born June 24, 1943, in Boyle County, he was a son of Eva Robinson of Junction City and the late James R. Robinson.
