Now he works on the morning news doing several segments, “Arklatex Best” which is profiling what is best about the Arklatex, “Arklatex Made” which is profiling products made here or businesses that are started here, and “Somewhere in the Arklatex” which is traveling and profiling interesting places and people of our part of the country. He also began 5 years ago a series on the Sunday night news called, "A Promise of Hope", these series are God stories about the life changing power of Jesus Christ. Rick is married to Donna Rowe and they have two kids Kristina who is 19 years old and Bailey who is 21 years old and both in college.

A “Note” from the KHCC Music Department

You can take the boy out of the town, but you can’t take the town out of the boy. Will L.

Thompson grew up in East Liverpool, Ohio, in the mid-1800s. A few hours away by horseback

were the grimy steel mills of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but East Liverpool was known for a

happier trade—its pottery. Will’s parents, Josiah and Sarah Thompson, were local entrepre-

neurs who had helped transform the area into a pottery manufacturing region.

Will showed early signs of his dad’s entrepreneurial spirit, and, being from a financially com-

fortable family, he was also able to devote time to his other passion—music. By age 16, he had

already published two songs, “Liverpool Schottische” and “Darling Minnie Gray.”

After musical training in Boston and Germany, Will tried to sell his music to major publish-

ers. When they didn’t offer enough money, he published them himself. He printed copies of his

most popular song, “Gathering Shells by the Sea,” and sent them to organizations throughout

the country. Soon “Gathering Shells” was one of America’s most popular songs, just behind

Stephen Foster’s “Old Folks at Home” in popularity.

With his earnings, Will established his own music publishing business in Chicago, Will L.

Thompson & Company. Having arrived at financial success, Will decided to devote himself

exclusively to Christian Music. He wrote the great invitational hymn “Softly and Tenderly Je-

sus is Calling,” (page 340 in our hymnal), the rousing gospel song “There’s a Great Day Com-

ing,” and this beautiful hymn, “Jesus is All the World to me.”

Despite being wealthy, famous, widely traveled, and in great demand, Will never wanted to

leave his hometown. He opened a music business in East Liverpool. (The store Thompson built

still stands at the corner of Fourth and Washington streets and now houses the Pottery City

Galleries Antique Mall.) He was a generous philanthropist, supporting heavily the local

YMCA and the Emmanuel Presbyterian Church. He served as the first president of the local

library. He also donated acreage for a park that bears his name to this day, stipulating that no

alcoholic beverages be allowed in the park and no sports permitted there on Sundays.

He regularly hitched up his two-horse wagon on which he placed a portable piano, and trav-

eled throughout the area singing his hymns in churches and public squares.

Will Thompson died in 1909, but in 2002, the grateful citizens of East Liverpool inducted him

into the Lou Holtz/Upper Ohio Valley Hall of Fame.
