hannon is more than a daycare provider – she’s a lifeline for the families in her care. When a mother living in a shelter was struggling to keep custody, Shannon watched the children, and helped the mother find a job and a home, and sign up for social service programs. But the support didn’t end there – she sent the kids home with extra food, warm clothes and gifts for the holidays, and helped provide transportation to and from the woman’s new job. When another family experienced car trouble, she picked up the parents, dropped them at work and drove them home at the end of the day for three months. It’s not just day care – she helped all the families in her care to get better so that they knew they were not alone in struggles.

Congressman Delivers His Wife’s Advice: Letting Go Eases Stress By LIBBY CUDMORE ONEONTA
A
n illness in the family kept Mary Jo Gibson from the “Love the Life You Life You Live” conference Saturday, Feb. 14, but she was there in spirit. “This is an issue that’s very important to her,” said her husband, Congressman Chris Gibson, R-19, who read her remarks. “Her spirituality gives her great strength and is central to her life.” The conference in SUNY Oneonta’s Hunt Union Ballroom invited women to focus on their spiritual, financial, emotional and physical health. “It’s not easy to break away from everything we have in our lives,” said Patricia Leonard, executive director of the Family Service Association, a sponsor. The conference, organized by The Crossroads Inn, a drug-free community, was the brainchild
of its proprietor, Noel Clinton. “I was sitting in services at the Word of Faith Church, and God put it in my heart that I need to do something for the community,” she said. “I wanted to show what it looks like to be a whole-hearted woman.” Over 200 women attended the conference, which had an “admission fee” of a hygiene item for the Family Services Association’s Helping Hands program. Over $1,200, with $300 in items alone, was raised through vendor fees and raffle tickets. “There are so many amazing women here who have the heart of a servant,” said Noel. “Everybody has enormous stresses in their lives,” said Gibson during the keynote address. “While I was in the service, Mary Jo worked with the widows while balancing her life as a mother and a professional. She needed more than just church on Sunday.” She attended a retreat for “Centering Prayer” in Warwick, and it changed her outlook. “There’s a

focus on, like ‘love.’ And for 20 minutes, all she does is focus on love – she’s found that at the end of the practice, she’s gained a new perspective.” He also taught the audience
the “letting go prayer” she uses. “Control is so central to human life,” he said. “But you can say out loud ‘I’m giving up my desire for control’ and focus on whatever you’re fixating on. By giving it up to God, she’s found that it helped her.” In addition, RN Michelle Tuchman spoke about her own path to spirituality. “When I light my shabbat candles on Friday night, I take time to reflect on all I have and all I can do for others,” she said. “And I thank God for this specific time I have to step back and think about the people I know who need prayers.” Yungchen Lhamo, a Tibetan singer/songwriter living in exile in New York City, closed out the keynote address with a chant. “I believe in energy,” she said. “Not so much in talking.” “At the end of the day, we’re on this earth for such a short time,” said Gibson. “It’s about what we can do to make a difference to others.”
When it comes to choosing the recipients, Brenda lets her heart do the talking. “Kaegen Smith, a 2007 recipient, was 2 pounds when he was born,” she said. “His dad’s wedding ring could fit over his leg. And then Wyatt said to me, ‘He’s really special, isn’t he?’ And he was. He was a miracle baby.” That year, 223 jumpers raised $35,000, and though she has lost touch with the Smith family, she still thinks about Kaegen every year. “I’d love to hear from him, hear how he’s doing,” she said. Of those 88 recipients, nine have since passed away, including 2013 recipient Audra Cameron, 20, an OHS graduate, claimed Jan.
3 by liver cancer. “We were very close to Devun Badarina,” said Brenda of the 2011 recipient who died that October of a brain tumor. “We were just devastated.” But Sierra Effner, also a 2011 recipient, is one of the many who has since recovered and returned to pay forward the generosity. “So many of the past recipients and their families jump,” said Brenda. “It’s what helps extend us, what helps us become who we are.” And sometimes, that love extends beyond the jump. “Cody VanBuren, a 2012 recipient, has had 110 surgeries,” said Brenda. “The nurses asked him if there was anything they could do to make him feel better, and he said he wanted a Mo-
hawk like Jamie’s!” “You go above and beyond,” said Dana Jones, their oldest daughter. In 2011, they got word that recipient Austin Jones was unable to travel because he didn’t have a wheelchair accessible van. “At the end of the banquet, after we’d given out all the awards, I turned to him and I said, ‘I’m sorry Austin, we don’t have a check for you’,” said Brenda. “And then I said, ‘Because we spent it on your new van!’ and handed him the keys!” “The best part is that it brings the community together,” said Justin Jones, Dana’s husband, who will take his own dip in the chilly waters. “There’s so many reasons to jump.”
