Metcalfe, 78, a member of the volunteer fire department since 1935, also is a 50-year member of the American Legion. He is a member of the Lions Club, joining in 1946, and has served on the Tippecanoe Advisory Board since 1958. He is part owner of Metcalfe-Payne & Bell Plumbing and Heating. Metcalfe thanked his wife for years of support, adding, "It's a great community ... but they sure surprised me tonight." Photo by Gary Gerard, Times-Union
