Princetonians voice concerns over agreement with Cranbury Decision to continue sending Cranbury students to Princeton to be made before 2020 By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer
The Princeton Public Schools Board of Education is facing increased public scrutiny about potentially renewing the sendreceive relationship it has with Cranbury. Residents, including a former Princeton mayor, spoke up at the board’s meeting May 22 to voice concerns about an arrangement that is due to expire at the end of June 2020. The two school districts are looking to extend the deal for 10 more years after the expiration date, so Cranbury students of high school age can continue to attend Princeton High School. “When you commit to receiving Cranbury students, you commit to receiving all the growth in Cranbury students that there will be if there’s great building growth,” resident Alexi Assmus said during public comment. “No one really knows what the Cranbury enrollments will be going forward,” said resident Joel Schwartz. “If, for whatever reason, Cranbury enrollments decline, Cranbury tuition payments to Princeton will decline. Princeton taxpayers will have to make up the difference.” Resident Brian McDonald, however, said he favored con-
tinuing the arrangement, one that sees Cranbury pay $4.8 million in tuition that represents the second largest revenue in the Princeton school budget. “The Cranbury relationship is a good deal financially for the district and the loss of revenue through the termination of the relationship with Cranbury would have significant negative consequences for our students and our taxpayers,” McDonald said. For the upcoming 2018-19 school year, Cranbury representatives said this week that the tuition payment would be a little more than $4.9 million for 280 students. “I think, again, that you need to defer any kind of decision on this,” resident Peter Madison told the board about the arrangement. “We don’t know what’s going to happen to their population and a 10-year-agreement sticks us for whatever happens to their population in terms of growth. They have more open land than we do.” Patrick Simon, a former Princeton councilman, urged board members to “buy yourself enough time to actually improve the review of the agreement and the implications of it before moving forward with it.” “You’ll be hard-pressed to find a taxpayer in this town, at this
time, who supports the Cranbury students coming into our schools at this time,” said Cara Marcano, a resident who at times spoke up during the meeting and brought a handmade sign she held up that read “No Cranbury kids in Princeton public schools.” Phyllis Marchand, a former Princeton Township mayor, touched on the environmental impact associated with the agreement. She said three school buses come into Princeton three times a day. “That doesn’t include the number of parents who come and drive children after school,” Marchand said. Later, one resident addressed Cranbury residents and Evelyn Spann, the Cranbury Board of Education member who serves as the representative to the Princeton Board of Education. “For any Cranbury people who are watching and for Evelyn, please know you are really wanted in our schools,” said Julia Sass Rubin, the wife of Princeton school board member Greg Stankiewicz. “I am sorry for the anger and the misinformation or just honest disagreements.” Spann declined to comment after the meeting. Princeton officials took no acSee SCHOOLS, Page 7A

Parade coordinator puts all the pieces in place for Memorial Day event By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer
For Phyllis Johnson, organizing the local Memorial Day parade is a labor of love. Johnson, the wife of Cranbury Mayor Glenn Johnson, coordinates a parade that is scheduled to step off May 28 beginning at 1 p.m. at Station Road and South Main Street. The route ends at Memorial Park, where there will be a post-parade ceremony. The parade has been an annual community tradition for more than 50 years. Since 1957, the Cranbury Lions Club has been sponsoring and running the parade, said Johnson, a past club president. “It’s something our club wants to continue to do,” she said. “It’s kind of a tradition now with us. We’ve been doing it for so long, it’s just something we want to keep doing for the community.” This marks Johnson’s fifth year as the parade coordinator, having volunteered to take over
from a club member who had been in charge before her. In part, it is her way to support the town she moved to in 2000 and to honor the service of her family. She had three siblings, two brothers and a sister, who served in the military. “It is a little town,” she said. “We know a lot of people now and we just love being here.” Organizing a parade begins well before the event. Johnson said that around the end of March or in early April, she invites local organizations and area fire departments and rescue squads to participate. There will be baton twirlers, fire trucks, antique cars, among others taking part this year. “It’s open to any group in town that wants to participate,” she said. While the forecast for next week calls for rain on Memorial Day, May 28, the parade happens rain or shine. Johnson recalled that two years ago, a major storm was forecast and she was getting calls about whether the parade would happen or not. Finally, on the day of the parade she let people know it would go on as scheduled as the weather system had either passed or was over, she said. “That was the most nervewracking year,” she said, “because you don’t want to have people out if there’s thunder and lightning and 50 mph winds.”

curred relieves the board from this obligation of privacy. In other words, ‘transparency’ does not exist in the current context. The board cannot legally explain the rationale behind any personnel decision it makes to the public unless
a position is being eliminated,” the board members wrote. The board members acknowledged that “this required lack of transparency can lead to speculation and rumors of plans of various sorts. Rumors on social
media to the effect that the board discussed or considered an internal promotion as part of its decision to non-renew are false,” they wrote. The board could not vote to reverse its April 30 decision on non-renewal
“because personnel decisions can only be made in the context of a superintendent’s recommendation. The action of non-renewal previously taken was not up for further action (at the May 14 meeting),” the board members wrote.
Meanwhile, district administrators have advertised the vacancy for the principal’s position at the Walter C. Black Elementary School and expect to have a new principal in place by the first day of school in September.

Begone, single-use plastic bags! Townships ban wasteful bags Look around and you’ll see plastic bags everywhere: tumbling along roads, washed up on beaches, caught in tree branches, and clogging rivers, streams and storm drains. In 2017, volunteers for Clean Ocean Action collected more than 9,000 plastic bags during their spring and fall “Beach Sweeps” up and down the Jersey shore. In April, volunteers for Raritan Headwaters Association picked up 2,370 bags along the Raritan River and its tribu-
taries. These cleanup efforts - involving thousands of volunteers – help keep our ocean and waterways safer for fish, birds, dolphins, whales, turtles and other aquatic creatures. They also help make the public aware of the enormous harm caused by single-use bags. Happily, this heightened public awareness is translating into action. In 2015, the borough of Longport, just south of Atlantic City, became the first town in New Jersey
to ban single-use plastic bags. Stores in this Absecon Island town are prohibited from giving out plastic bags to customers; instead, shoppers are asked to bring their own reusable bags. If a customer doesn’t have a bag, businesses charge customers 10 cents apiece for bags. Two more towns – Teaneck in Bergen County and Long Beach Township on Long Beach Island – have also banned single-use plastic bags. Long Beach’s ban took effect on May 1,
just in time for the summer season. In February, Stafford Township in Ocean County introduced a law banning single-use plastic bags; a public hearing will be held this summer. And on May 1, Point Pleasant Beach in Ocean County introduced its own plastic bag ban. The town will help the transition by handing out 1,000 reusable canvas bags. These local efforts are critical and very positive. But why not ban single-use bags outright in this state we’re in? New Jersey uses about 4.5 billion single-use plastic bags every year. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, fewer than 5 percent of all single-use plastic bags are recycled. The rest go to landfills or trash incinerators … or end up as litter. Plastic bags burned in incinerators create air pollution. Those in the ocean and waterways are hazards to wildlife, which mistake them for food. Bags exposed to sunlight break down into smaller and smaller pieces, eventually becoming “microplastics.” These microscopic plastic particles become part of the food chain, and end up in our drinking water. Recent research shows microplastic contamination in many
popular bottled waters. In 2016, California became the first state to ban single-use plastic bags. On its one-year anniversary last November, the state declared a victory: some 13 billion plastic bags a year had been eliminated, and the number of plastic bags on beaches dropped significantly. Californians quickly adjusted to bringing their own bags to stores or paying 10 cents for heavierweight reusable bags. California’s law is tough, but not nearly as tough as those in other places! Kenya enacted the world’s strictest ban on single-use plastic bags in 2017. Kenyans producing, selling or even using plastic bags are subject to up to four years in jail or fines of $40,000. More than 40 additional countries have banned, partly banned or taxed single-use plastic bags. Would a statewide ban or tax on single-use plastic bags work in New Jersey? This past February, Assemblywoman Valerie Vainieri Huttle introduced a new bill that would impose a 5-cent fee on single-use plastic bags, an incentive for customers to bring their own bags. The bill is still before the Assembly’s Environment and Solid Waste Committee, and it remains
to be seen whether the full Legislature will get behind it or an amended version. But why wait for your town – or the state Legislature - to act? Take action today to reduce plastic pollution by voluntarily bringing your own reusable shopping bags. It’s not hard to develop this new habit – it’s just like buckling your seat belt or flossing your teeth! Biodegradable plastic shopping bags are another solution, but they’re not yet readily available. Most stores don’t offer biodegradable bags, and they need to be composted rather than tossed in the trash. To learn more about microplastics pollution and its impact on wildlife, go to the NY/NJ Baykeeper website atwww.baykeeperplasticstory.org or the Clean Ocean Action website at www. cleanoceanaction.org/index .php?id=824.

Princeton High flips result to gain berth in lax final By Bob Nuse Sports Editor
The defense has been a work in progress for the Princeton High girls’ lacrosse team throughout the season. And to see just how much progress the Little Tigers have made, look no further than the results of their two games this spring against Monroe. When the two teams met on April 27, Monroe scored 16 goals to beat Princeton, 16-15. But when the two teams met on Monday in the semifinals of the Central Jersey, Group IV state sectional tournament, it was a different story. The Princeton defense held the high-powered Monroe offense to just two goals through the first 35 minutes of the game. With the Little Tigers’ offense
Schools Continued from Page 1A tion on the send-receive agreement this week; the deal was supposed to be on the agenda for the meeting for a first reading, but it was pulled, according to Board President Patrick Sullivan. Typically, the board puts policies, not contracts, up for first reading - a chance for board members to make comments and changes. Sullivan said after the meeting that lawyers are “still working out the details” and that board members need time to review the deal. He said it was not decided yet when the board might vote on the agreement. The board has delayed
clicking, Princeton cruised to a 17-8 victory and a berth in the Central Jersey, Group IV championship game. “I think we went into that first game thinking we owned it a little too much,” Princeton’s senior defender, Sophia Navarette, said. “We went into this game with that confidence, but also we acted as a very cohesive unit and that showed with our defense. “We have all been improving over the season. It’s a younger team, but we have had a lot of young girls step up on defense, especially. We have been very cohesive.” Top-seeded Princeton advanced to the state sectional final, where it was scheduled to face secondseeded Rancocas Valley on Thursday. “At this point in the season we all know each other
so well,” Navarette said. “It is one of those things where I am going to pass her the ball and I know that she will catch it. It’s a trust thing. We all trust each other so much. The younger girls have stepped up and we have been able to make that connection and have the trust with each other.” Princeton jumped to an 8-2 lead at halftime and led 13-2 midway through the second half before Monroe got its offense going. Serena Bolitho led the Princeton offense with five goals. Mariana LopezOna and Eva Petrone each recorded three goals and two assists, while Shayla Marciano finished with two goals and three assists. Abaigeal Ryan and Shoshana Henderson sank two goals apiece in the victory. “When we have the attack doing their job it defi-
voting before. In April, officials raised the prospect of acting on the agreement that month, but that was pushed back. “It’s complicated, it raises, obviously, a lot of emotions,” Sullivan said of the send-receive agreement. “We need to air all the issues and make sure people understand if we do it, why we do it, if we don’t do it, why we’re not doing it.” The timing of the Cranbury debate comes with Princeton looking to put a $129.8 million referendum on the ballot in October to pay for improving facilities and other projects, including $56.5 million worth of work at the overcrowded high school.
Cranbury would contribute to paying off a portion of the debt service on projects at the high school. Princeton board member Dafna Kendal said this week she is concerned the district might lose support within the community for the referendum due to the opposition the Cranbury arrangement is generating. “We proposed a (referendum) plan that we think is in the best interests of the students and the community,” Kendal said on May 23. “I’m worried that the needs of the district will be overshadowed by the discussion around Cranbury, because it’s really two separate issues.”
nitely helps the defense want to protect our goal,” Navarette said. “We trust each other very much and I know the attack is going to do their job and in turn we have to do our job.” Grace Reardon made seven saves in goal for the Little Tigers, whose defense was on top of their game on Monday. “We changed it to a backer defense to put a little more pressure on them,” said Princeton coach Sara Doran, whose team improved to 12-10 with the victory. “They were having a lot of success in the first game with feeding girls in the center, so we decided to put more pressure out on the feeder and give them less of an option. I think that worked well today.
“It is so critical for defense to be communicating and doing the same thing at the same time. That just takes growth over the course of a season and I can see now that they are communicating well.” Princeton came out firing and with a balanced offense joining the strong defensive effort, took control of the game right from the start. “I said to the girls we have to from the first whistle to the last play our hearts out,” Doran said. “This team beat us the first time around and it is rare to get a second chance in a season for redemption. They played their hearts out from the first whistle to the last whistle. We needed to play as a team and trust each other and as

I look at the goals and the assists it is spread throughout the whole offense. They were playing as a team and they were trusting each other. The defense was communicating beautifully and it all came together. I am really proud of them.” Princeton’s season will continue for as long as the Little Tigers keep winning. The sectional final was also a rematch game for Princeton, which beat Rancocas Valley, 11-10, when the two teams met on April 13. “I have been very sad,” Navarette said of knowing each game she plays could be her last with the Little Tigers. “All of these girls have been like a family to me. But I am having a lot of fun and we have had a really good season.”

Beyond the Multiplex If you love movies, there are options beyond the endless stream of sequels and superhero movies that are about to dominate multiplexes over the next few months. The 23rd annual New Jersey International Film Festival will take place at Rutgers University, June 1-10. More than 20 films will be shown weekends, with programs beginning at 5 p.m. or 7 p.m. Opening weekend is June 1 and will kick off with the short film “Headless Swans”, which is about a private detective who exposes extramarital affairs, and has grown to enjoy watching the destruction of the relationships he’s investigating. It will be followed by the feature, “Bullit Country” about four buddies with a secret who reunite for a bachelor party. June 2 will offer the documentary “The Wrestler: A Q.T. Marshall Story” by Toms River filmmaker Frank Zarillo. The movie follows the title wrestler as he takes one last shot at making the WWE. A second program June 2 will spotlight two short films and the documentary “Vianey”, which tells the story of hip-hop artist Vianey Otero. Opening weekend will wrap up June 3 with a program including the feature “306 Hollywood” about siblings who lose their grandmother, then figure out what to do with all of her possessions. Other highlights of the festival include “The Best of All Worlds”, from Austrian filmmaker Adrian Goipoinger. The movie is based on the true story of a 7-year-old growing up amid the drug trade of Salsburg, Austria. ”Shellfish”, by New Jersey filmmaker JD Wilson of Point Pleasant Beach, will be shown June 9. It’s a satire about millennials and their attachment to
technology. A second program on June 9 will include the feature “MDMA” about a girl from Newark who goes to a prestigious university in the 1980s and loses her scholarship when she gets involved with selling ecstasy. The movie is based on a true story. Many film screenings include appearances by directors, artists and scholars. For a full schedule and details, go to www.njfilmfest.com. For classic film lovers, summer wouldn’t be complete without Hollywood Summer Nights at the Princeton Garden Theatre. The series continues May 30 with Alfred Hitchcock’s “Vertigo,” starring Jimmy Stewart as a detective with a fear of heights who is obsessed with a young woman played by Kim Novak. Things will lighten up the next day when the Marx Brothers star in “Horse Feathers” May 31. Other classics on the schedule including “Funny Girl,” starring Barbra Streisand, June 21. The western classic “Rio Bravo” starring John Wayne is slated for June 27. The Garden Theatre’s annual showing of “Jaws” is scheduled for June 28.

SUMMER THEATER PREVIEW by Anthony Stoeckert
A
A Season of Stories on Stage
ll the world may not be a stage, but there are lots of stages in the area that will be busy with theatrical presentations all summer long. Drama, comedy, musicals, new plays and classics will be performed by professional and community groups over the next few months, so start making your plans, and start ordering your tickets. The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey in Madison has opened its new season with “Tartuffe,” the famous farce by Moiliere, translated by Richard Wilbur. The play, running through June 10, follows Orgon, who is enamored with the title hypocrite and arranges for his daughter to marry Tartuffe. The rest of the family sees through Tartuffe and devises a plan to expose Tartuffe for who he is. Few nights of theater are more enjoyable than the Shakespeare Theatre’s annual outdoor play on the campus of the College of St. Elizabeth in Morristown, and this year’s choice is “The Servant of Two Masters,” running June 20 through July 29. Bonnie J. Monte, the theater’s artistic director, wrote a new adaptation of Carlo Coldoni’s comedy in which Truffaldino tells the audience about his abilities to keep his two masters happy. The comedy on the outdoor stage will be contrasted with tragedy indoors when the Shakespeare Theatre present’s the Bard’s “Titus Andronicus,” July 18 through Aug. 5. This early Shakespeare tragedy is one of his most violent works, telling a story of revenge near the end of the Roman Empire. This will mark the Shakespeare Theatre’s first production of “Titus Andronicus” in more than 30 years.

Princeton gets a gift of bike lanes
I found out on my birthday — May 20 — that I count, because I was counted. Unbeknownst to me, I stepped on a counter on the sidewalk along Wiggins Street, and I became a data point in a Princeton initiative that turned out to be hands-down (or more accurately feet-down) the best gift of the day — a celebration of biking and walking. The gift, inspired by the Princeton Bicycle Advisory Committee, comprised about 16,000 feet of black-and-yellow-and-white tape, dozens of cans of white spray paint, and several laminated signs. The cost was $5,000, a relative bargain, even by Amazon standards, because, for the most part, it was a one-day, free delivery by Princeton volunteers. Forty volunteers, including Princeton Mayor Liz Lempert, plus two members of the Princeton Engineering Department, spent six hours on Sunday installing temporary bike lanes on Wiggins Street from Sylvia Beach Way (the road behind the library) to Walnut/Chestnut lane. The bike lanes will stay in place through May 29 , but the counters that count pedestrians on the sidewalks, bikes in the bike lanes, and cars on the roadway, were put into place May 11 and will remain until the first week of June. The data collection, facilitated by the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission, will report the before, during, and after transportation use of the halfmile of roadway. I hope this is a gift that keeps on giving. The pilot program of temporary bike lanes in a high-traffic area may pilot the town’s way to a permanent installation. I urge bikers and walkers to get out there and be counted on Wiggins and contribute
Volunteers helped install temporary bike lanes in Princeton. The lanes will be in place through May 29. to my birthday celebration. Residents can make sure they count by taking the online survey on the town’s website www.princetonnj.gov. A smaller group of volunteers worked two weeks ago to canvass the homeowners along Wiggins to get their reaction to the installation of temporary bike lanes that will lead to the elimination of that precious Princeton commodity, parking spaces. According to Lempert and Princeton Engineer Deanna Stockton, the response was overwhelmingly positive. The people living in the neighborhood are fans of walking and biking around town and are willing to live with parking space deprivation in order to get the bikes off the sidewalks and into a safe lane of transit on the roadway. The planning for my gift began last September on International Parking Day, a day when parking spaces can be repurposed for pedestrian lifestyle uses, such as temporary outdoor seating and/or entertainment spaces. “But this repurposing only lasts one day, and the Princeton Bicycle Advisory Committee decided to adopt a goal
to create a longer parking-space-takeover project in the form of bike lanes,” Stockton said. “The engineering department embraced the concept, as did the mayor and elected officials, even though no formal council resolution was required to implement this temporary data-collection.” This project is a perfect fit for the PBAC whose goals are to: • Promote and accommodate walking and bicycling as modes of transportation • Advise the mayor and council about the character, safety and location of future pedestrian and bicycle facilities and/or accommodations. Since I am a member of the Princeton Complete Streets Committee, this birthday present was no surprise. It was originally scheduled for installation on May 19 , but Mother Nature made sure the work took place on my birthday. The surprise element of the initiative was related to the starting point of the bike lanes at Sylvia Beach Way. Sylvia Beach (March 14, 1887 – Oc-

tober 5, 1962), born Nancy Woodbridge Beach, was an American-born bookseller and publisher who lived most of her life in Paris, where she was one of the leading expatriate figures between World War I and II. She is known for her Paris bookstore, Shakespeare and Company, where she published James Joyce’s controversial book, “Ulysses” (1922), and encouraged the publication and sold copies of Hemingway’s first book, “Three Stories and Ten Poems” (1923). The Sylvia Beach Papers — a collection that documents the life and activities of Sylvia Beach (18871962), particularly relating to Shakespeare & Company — is housed at the Princeton University Library. When they start naming bike lanes, I want to be first on the list. This might serve as a fund-raising tactic to pay for the permanent installation and would be a great birthday present to honor those who love walking and biking. It lasts longer and is healthier than my favorite gifts after bike lanes: chocolate and Cheetos.

HEALTH MATTERS
Dr. Harvey E. Smires, M.D.
Robotic arm-assisted surgery is transforming joint replacement procedures More than 1 million hip and knee replacements are performed in the United States each year, according to the National Institutes of Health, and with the aging of the baby boomers that number is expected to grow. Moreover, advances in technology and surgical techniques are making joint replacement an increasingly popular treatment option for younger patients who suffer from joint conditions. Today, surgeons affiliated with the Jim Craigie Center for Joint Replacement at Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center (PMC) are offering robotic arm technology for total knee, partial knee and total hip replacement surgery. Arthritis common reason for joint replacement Your knee is made of three basic parts that move and work together to ensure smooth motion and function, while your hip is made of two. When osteoarthritis or other conditions affect the knee or hip, the cartilage that serves as a cushion for the joint wears away or is destroyed. The bones then rub up against each other, causing pain and stiffness, particularly first thing in the morning or after resting. Other common symptoms of osteoarthritis include: • Limited range of mo-
tion or stiffness that goes away after movement • Clicking or cracking sound when a joint bends • Mild swelling around a joint • Pain that occurs upon starting an activity or that worsens with activity or toward the end of the day Osteoarthritis is one of the most common reasons for joint replacement. Other conditions that affect the joints include rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis and bone conditions such as Paget’s disease and osteonecrosis. Partial vs. total Joint replacement is a surgical procedure in which parts of an arthritic or damaged joint are removed and replaced with metal, ceramic or hard plastic implants. For knees, if the damage has occurred on both sides of the joint or in all three joint components, a total knee replacement procedure may be performed. During the procedure, the diseased portion of the knee is resurfaced, saving as much of the patient’s healthy bone and surrounding tissue as possible. An implant is then secured in the joint to allow the knee to move smoothly again. Sometimes, the cartilage damage in your knee is limited to just one side or the kneecap. When this happens, a partial knee replacement procedure may be appropriate. Partial
and technological advances that lead to longer-lasting implants.
Dr. Harvey E. Smires knee replacement is similar to total knee replacement except only one of the three knee components is replaced. In total hip replacement, the upper part of your femur — called the femoral head — is replaced with an artificial stem, which fits inside the femur bone. The damaged cartilage surface of your socket is removed and replaced with a metal socket or cup. Screws are sometimes used to hold the socket in place. A plastic and ceramic bearing is then inserted between the new stem and the socket to allow for a smooth gliding surface. In the past, joint replacement was predominately for patients age 60 and older, but today it is considered for younger individuals as well, thanks to refined surgical techniques
A new approach Robotic-arm assisted surgery is a new approach to joint replacement that enables surgeons to more accurately plan and place implant components. Prior to robot-assisted procedures, patients undergo CT scans that are used to create 3D images of their unique anatomy. The information is then uploaded to the robot to help the surgeon plan the procedure. The 3D modeling enables the precise placement of the implants and enables the robot to limit the movement of surgical instruments to a pre-designated area. The system also allows the surgeon to make adjustments to the plan during surgery as needed. For knee replacement, the robot can also simulate the full range of motion and ensure the knee is in complete alignment. For hip replacement, the robotic technology allows surgeons to align the cup in position to lower the incident of dislocation and often restore normal leg length. The precision of robotic-arm assisted surgery can result in faster recovery, a higher rate of patient satisfaction and longer-lasting mobility. Patients are often up and moving almost pain-
free the same day as surgery. The Jim Craigie Center at PMC has earned the Gold Seal of Approval from The Joint Commission for total hip replacement and total knee replacement. In addition, U.S. News and World Report has rated PMC high performing in hip and knee replacement procedures. For more information about robotic arm-assisted
joint replacement surgery at the Jim Craigie Center for Joint Replacement or to find an orthopaedic surgeon with Penn Medicine Princeton Health, go to www.princetonhcs.org or call 888-742-7469. Harvey E. Smires, M.D. is a board certified orthopaedic surgeon on the Medical Staff at Penn Medicine Princeton Health.

2017 Realtor® Of the Year – Mercer County
CRS, e-PRO, ASP, SRS, Sales Associate, Realtor Office: 609-924-1600
Here I am with my family. Jonathan, Abigail, Laurel, and my husband Tom.
Cell: 908-391-8396 | Email: donnamurray@comcast.net | www.donnamurrayrealestate.com
Q
. Tell us about yourself. A. I grew up in a small town called Silver Creek, which is in the western section of Chautauqua County, NY, an hour past Buffalo on Lake Erie. I’m still a diehard fan of the Buffalo Bills. I then worked as a flight attendant for American Airlines for 18 years, traveling the world, before going into Real Estate.
Q
. Tell us about your family. A. My husband Tom works for American Airlines as a 777 Captain Check Airman. He recently had the honor of serving as one of the four captains who flew Pope Francis during his U.S. visit. We have three children, who attended St. Paul’s School in Princeton and Notre Dame High School (’09, ’11, ’13) in Lawrenceville. Jonathan graduated Rutgers Engineering program and works for TD Securities, Abigail is a grad student at Rider going for a Masters in Clinical Mental Health, and Laurel is graduating Seton Hall in May 2017 and continuing there in the fall for grad school.
Q
. What do you like to do for fun? A. I love taking our Cavalier King Charles dogs, Shamrock and Sebastian, for walks on the many
253 Nassau Street Princeton, NJ 08540 609-924-1600
nature trails in the area. I also love to entertain and enjoy volunteering in the community. Most importantly, I cherish when my family of five can coordinate our busy schedules to spend some quality time together.
Q
. What do you see in the future for Real Estate? A. Real Estate is continuing to change quickly with the times. More listings will have interactive floorplans, 3D virtual tours, aerial drone pictures, etc., and the industry will continue to find new innovations for enticing buyers. Buyers search online, wanting to be equipped with as much information as possible before choosing to visit a home, and I anticipate that trend continuing with the aid of technology.
Q
. To what do you attribute your success in Real Estate over the past 20 years? A. I am patient with my clients and enjoy educating them on real estate in our area. I do my best to treat each client and property with the same care. I don’t believe in cutting corners when it comes to providing service or marketing a home as I would my own, no matter the size of the home or the price point. My motto is “From starter to stately homes, and everything in between.” I also maintain my knowledge of the ever-changing inventory, have excellent negotiating skills, and stay up to date on industry technology. Here are my two dogs, Shamrock and Sebastian, playing in our backyard.
