Princeton looks to formally establish Department of Health

American Repertory Ballet names new artistic director

By ANDREW HARRISON Staff Writer

SUBSCRIBE 732-254-7004

Princeton Council members will formally establish the Department of Health, if the council adopts an ordinance updating Chapter 2 of the municipal code. The Princeton council introduced the ordinance on Nov. 16, which is part of an effort to update portions of the code from the former borough and township of Princeton consolidation. The public hearing on adopting the ordinance is scheduled for Dec. 7. The Princeton Health Department would be designated as the Department of Health. Essentially, the council is going to recognize a Department of Health rather than a Princeton Health Department. The formal designation would be added to Chapter 2 under the commissions and agency provisions. A new portion is to create a director for the Department of Health, who will be the health officer. The department’s administration would remain the same with Health Officer Jeff Grosser continuing to lead Princeton’s public health department. Under this department will be two divisions, one being animal control and the other the division of housing. The division of animal control was already under the Princeton Health Department. The Bureau of Rental Housing Inspections would be transferred from the Princeton Department of Emergency and Safety Services to the Department of Health. “The housing bureau is a division that deals with housing maintenance. That is currently within the department of emergency services. Property maintenance inspections will move over to the Department of Health,” Municipal Administrator Marc Dashield said during the council meeting on Nov. 16. “One of the rationales for this, those inspections for property maintenance coincide all the time with nuisance inspections done through the health department.” According to the ordinance, the Princeton housing official would serve as supervisor of the housing division and report to the director outside of the specific authority granted to the housing official. Municipal officials added that Princeton seeks to provide better service during the current pandemic health crisis with the formal establishment of the Department of Health and additional division under the department.

Ethan Stiefel will take on the role of artistic director of the American Repertory Ballet in Princeton next July.

American Repertory Ballet (ARB) announced that Ethan Stiefel will become its new artistic director beginning July 2021. “This appointment marks a wonderful new era for our organization,” Board Chair DonnaJean Fredeen said in a prepared statement. “We believe Ethan Stiefel’s unparalleled expertise and innovative vision will bring ARB into an exciting new chapter. We are delighted to welcome him, and look forward to supporting his leadership.” Stiefel began his professional career at age 16 with the New York City Ballet where he rose to the rank of principal dancer. He was also a principal dancer with Ballett Zürich and American Bal-

tor of the Royal New Zealand for three years, which followed his position as dean of the School of Dance at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. He is currently the principal guest instructor at ABT. “We are beyond thrilled to have Ethan join our organization in this capacity,” Julie Diana Hench, executive director, said in the statement. “His incredible breadth of experience and accomplishments, combined with his inspiring vision, generosity of spirit, creative talents, and professionalism, will shape the future of ARB and Princeton Ballet School. With Ethan at the helm, it feels like the possibilities are endless.”

let Theater (ABT) where, in July 2012, he gave his final performance. “I am very fortunate to again have the opportunity to become an artistic director,” Stiefel said in the statement. “I believe most arts organizations have taken stock during these times and are exploring ways to pioneer, diversify and reinvigorate how they approach their internal culture while seeking to offer current and relevant inspiration for communities and audiences. I am looking forward to helping ARB emerge from these challenging times and to being a part of developing the art form within the organization and the communities we serve.” Stiefel served as artistic direc-

High school ice hockey season delayed with state’s temporary suspension of indoor sports By ANDREW HARRISON Staff Writer

The Princeton High School (PHS) and Hopewell Valley Central High School (HVCHS) athletic departments, along with others statewide, are now adapting to Gov. Phil Murphy’s executive order temporarily suspending indoor high school sports practices and competitions. The issued order, which goes into effect on Dec. 5, comes as the state faces the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic and a rise statewide in confirmed cases of COVID-19. The temporary suspension of youth and adult sports is scheduled to end on Jan. 2, if the order

is not extended. “As we battle the second wave of COVID-19, we must continue to take all steps necessary to prevent needless infections, hospitalizations and deaths from this deadly virus,” Murphy said in a statement on Nov. 30. “It is our intention for indoor sports to resume in the new year, but this can only happen if our state remains committed to the fight against COVID-19.” For high school sports, the suspension impacts the start of the ice hockey season. Official practices were scheduled to start on Dec. 14. PHS and HVCHS would have then been able to start ice hockey competition play

Princeton High School boys hockey’s start to the winter season is delayed by the temporary suspension of indoor sports issued by Gov. Phil Murphy,

on Jan. 4, which was the official New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) start date for competition play statewide. “NJSIAA is aware of the governor’s announcement regarding indoor sports and can confirm that it will impact the start of the high school ice hockey season. We’re hopeful that, with schedule modifications, the ice hockey season will be viable when the state’s pause is lifted,” the NJSIAA said in a statement on Nov. 30. “No other indoor, high school sports are impacted by the governor’s

order at all but ice hockey had their start dates moved to January 2021 or later.” If the order is not extended, high school basketball, fencing and bowling can begin official practices on Jan. 11 and have competitions commence starting Jan. 26; swimming and winter track and field are slated for practice starting on Feb. 1 and competition games then beginning on Feb. 16; and gymnastics, girls volleyball and wrestling practices will start on March 1 with competition play scheduled to kick off on March 16.

CHRISTINE’S HOPE FOR KIDS Jean and John Gianacaci, the founders of Christine’s Hope for Kids, dreamed of one day writing a book to honor their daughter, Christine, who loved helping kids, especially kids who were treated unfairly because of their differences. While she herself was bullied as a child, because of Tourette’s, she was upbeat, kind, and always the first to help someone who needed her help. That was Christine. Because of what Christine experienced, Jean and John wanted to do something about bullying. They partnered with Linda Martin, a friend and a Christine’s Hope for Kids board member, to write a story that addressed bullying. That story is told in a way every child can relate to in ALWAYS BETTER TOGETHER...A Story of Acceptance, Friendship and Love. It teaches children important lessons about accepting people’s differences and the remarkable power of kindness. About Christine’s Hope for Kids... Christines’s Hope for Kids is a local non-profit with one abiding principle. That every child deserves to be a kid, regardless of his or her circumstances. The foundation was inspired by Christine Gianacaci, the daughter of Jean and John, who lost her life when an earthquake struck while she was on a mission in Haiti to help underprivileged children. In the eleven years since its inception, Christine’s Hope for Kids has dispersed over $1,000,000 to 130 local agencies, providing tens of thousands of children with the kind of things most children take for granted. The proceeds from the sale of this book will enable Christine’s Hope for Kids to help even more underserved children in our very own communities. ALWAYS BETTER TOGETHER is a great gift for every child this holiday. It can be purchased for $24.95 at chistineshope.org, and in Pennington at Artistic Designs, Emily’s Cafe, Orion Jewelry Studio, Pennington Quality Market, Rosedale Mills, The Front Porch and Twirl Toy Store. Also in Lawrenceville at Enzo’s La Piccola Cucina and in Robbinsville at Salon Xtraordinare. To learn more about Christine’s Hope for Kids, please visit christineshope.org. NM-00447180

Get outside and embrace ‘friluftsliv’ this winter

riluftsliv might be hard to pronounce, but it is a concept to embrace this winter amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Meaning “open-air life” in Norwegian, friluftsliv (pronounced free-loofts-liv) is deeply ingrained in Nordic culture. Scandinavians are renowned for their love of the outdoors, no matter the season or weather. There’s even a popular saying: “There is no bad weather, only bad clothes.” At Scandinavian latitudes, where winter means scarce daylight and frigid temperatures, friluftsliv is an incredibly helpful attitude. Why not try it out this winter for the sake of our health and sanity? After the ﬁrst COVID outbreak this past spring, socializing outside with friends and family became a way of life for many. It was easy in the warm months to spend leisurely hours walking with friends, hanging out at parks and beaches, and dining outdoors. But as winter’s chill sets in, a different mindset is needed to avoid either spending the next several months in isolation or spreading COVID-19 at indoor gatherings. Friluftsliv is all about connecting with nature, either alone or socially. Numerous studies have shown that time spent outdoors boosts physical and mental health. A 2019 study published in the journal “Nature” found that spending just two hours a week in natural environments like parks or green spaces increases happiness and feelings of well-being. “According to United Nations listings, Scandinavian countries consistently rank as the happiest countries on Earth,” points out Oliver Luke Delorie, author of the book “Friluftsliv: Reconnect with Nature,” published earlier this year.

HEALTH MATTERS

Friluftsliv is not limited to hard-core outdoor activities like winter camping in the backwoods, snowshoeing in deep powder, or gliding across a frozen fjord. It’s a lifestyle choice of enjoying moments outdoors. Think lunchtime strolls with friends, bicycling around town, or bundling up and enjoying a steaming mug of cocoa in the snow. The Norwegians even have a special word, utepils, for drinking a beer outdoors! Here are some ideas for getting into the spirit of friluftsliv this winter: • Dress for the weather, because you won’t have fun if you are cold and wet. Wear essentials like a warm parka, wool hat, snow-proof boots, longjohns and insulated gloves or mittens. By the way, outdoor gear makes great holiday gifts for those who will be joining you outside; • Look for new parks, forests and trails to explore with friends. Hiking is great in cold weather and many hikers prefer it to the hot, humid conditions of summer. You will warm up quickly once you start moving, so make sure to dress in layers. This state we’re in has an incredible variety of trails in all regions and for all ability levels. And without leaves on trees, you will get better views of birds, wildlife and scenery. • Summer is not the only time to visit the beach. New Jersey’s beaches – 130 miles of them, all nearly empty in winter – are great for walking. As a bonus, you will get soothing views of breaking waves and may be lucky enough to spot diving winter birds like loons and gannets, and marine mammals like whales, dolphins and seals. • Make the outdoors the center of your social life. After warming up with a brisk walk, enjoy an outdoor picnic where

it’s easy to avoid ants, flies and mosquitoes. If local lakes and ponds freeze over, organize a skating party. If it snows, try sledding or cross-country skiing … or have a snowman building contest. Toast marshmallows around a campfire, just as you would in summer. Remember to wear a mask and keep socially distanced. An added bonus: a face mask helps keep your face from freezing! • If you have a yard, deck or patio, prep your outdoor spaces for winter entertaining. This would be the year to invest in improvements to extend the outdoor season, such as patio heaters, fire pits, warm seat cushions, blankets and hand warmers. • If you are interested in meeting new people or going on guided adventures, consider joining an outdoor club. Organizations like the Appalachian Mountain Club of New YorkNorth Jersey and the Outdoor Club of South Jersey offer hikes and events in all seasons – all subject to COVID-19 precautions. The state parks system also sponsors walks, hikes and events year round – see its calendar at https://www.state. nj.us/dep/parksandforests/calendar/index.html • Check out conservation groups in your area for hikes and other events. For example, the nonprofit Raritan Headwaters Association hit it off the friluftsliv charts recently with a European-style lighted paper lantern parade through the meadows of its nature preserve in Bedminster at sunset. Connect with nature this winter for your health and happiness. Michele S. Byers is the executive director of the New Jersey Conservation Foundation, Far Hills.

Physical Therapy Can Help Speed Recovery After Hip or Knee Replacement Surgery

fter hip or knee replacement surgery, many patients are eager to return to the activities they love – from golﬁng and gardening to playing tennis or simply playing with the grandkids. Physical therapy plays an important role in the recovery process. With exercises designed to strengthen the muscles and other tissues around the joint, physical therapy can help manage pain and restore function and mobility so patients can get back on their feet faster. Princeton Rehabilitation at Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center offers outpatient physical therapy to help individuals recovering from hip or knee replacement return to their normal activities.

Presented by James J. Cally, D.M.D. IS CHARCOAL A NO GO? Charcoal is a trend that seems to be hitting every category of beauty, from face masks to foot scrubs. But does it really make a difference in your toothpaste? Activated charcoal is made from substances like wood and coconut shells, and although it can be found in almost every brand of toothpaste, there is no reliable evidence that it can remove stains beneath the enamel of your teeth. Its rough texture does help remove surface stains, but it is aggressively abrasive for a product that is supposed to be used twice a day. It may actually wear down your enamel, making your teeth more vulnerable to stains and causing them to appear yellow. Whether dealing with home oral care techniques, cosmetic dentistry, wisdom teeth, restorations, or dental implants, a good experience with dentistry is based on

two things—choosing the right dentist whom you trust and who is up to date on the latest in dentistry, and taking the necessary steps to keep dental problems at bay through self-care at home between professional visits. We will work with you to maximize your oral health. Office hours at Montgomery Knoll, 192 Tamarack Circle, Skillman, are by appointment. Please call 609-924-8300. “Our commitment is to relationships of partnership, respect, and appreciation.” “We offer cosmetic and family dentistry as well as Zoom!® and Invisalign®.” Please e-mail your questions or comments to: drjamescally@yahoo.com P.S.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 32.5 million people in the United States suffer from osteoarthritis, a degenerative condition characterized by the breakdown of the cartilage in the joint that protects your bones from rubbing against each other. Though osteoarthritis can affect any joint in your body, it most commonly occurs in your knees and hips, causing pain, stiffness, swelling and decreased range of motion. In many cases, osteoarthritis can be managed with medication and lifestyle changes such as weight loss and increased physical activity. However, when the pain keeps you from leading an active life, surgery to replace your hip or knee can provide a safe and effective remedy. In simplest terms, joint replacement surgery involves removing the damaged parts of a joint and replacing them with a metal, plastic or a ceramic device called a prosthesis. The prosthesis is designed to replicate the movement of a normal, healthy joint. Joint replacement surgery is common in the United States, with more than 1.2 million hip and knee replacement procedures performed annually, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. At Penn Medicine Princeton Health, hip and knee replacement procedures may be performed on an inpatient basis or as an outpatient procedure for appropriate candidates. Physical Therapy Starts Within Hours As the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons notes, regular exercise to restore strength and mobility to your joint is important for a full recovery after surgery. Insurance typically requires surgeons to prescribe physical therapy after knee and hip replacement, and therapy typically begins within hours after the procedure. Whether in an inpatient or outpatient setting, a physical therapist will teach you how to move safely following precautions, sit at the edge of the bed, stand, put some weight on the joint, and walk. The physical therapist will also help you begin an exercise program to improve the strength and ﬂexibility of the muscles around the joint. You are normally able to go

home once you are able to walk safely, navigate steps and complete your exercise program. As part of your recovery, outpatient physical therapy will continue to focus on range of motion, strength, endurance and balance to help you achieve your highest functional level. Physical therapy can also help manage pain and decrease swelling with modalities and manual therapy techniques. Physical therapy is aimed at: • Improving range of motion. After surgery, swelling and pain may keep you from moving your joint as you desire. Physical therapy can help you work through this and improve range of motion. • Strengthening muscles. Building strength in the muscles surrounding the joint can help decrease the need for assistive devices like a walker, crutches or cane. • Restoring balance. As you continue to recover, agility exercises will help you restore balance so you can safely navigate things like icy sidewalks or uneven terrain. Agility exercises can also help you make the sudden stops and turns that many sports require. • Returning normal function. Physical therapy exercises can help you return to the activities you were able to do before pain started to limit your motion. For some, that could mean returning to tennis or golf, for others it could mean restoring the ability to carry groceries up a set of stairs or taking a pain-free walk in the park. It is important to note that some patients may need home care services for a brief period of time until they can safely attend an outpatient physical therapy program. An Individualized Approach Princeton Rehabilitation offers patients an individualized, goal-oriented treatment program that progresses based on your level of pain and tolerance to therapy. In-person physical therapy appointments are offered in Hamilton, Monroe, Plainsboro, Princeton and South Brunswick. For patients seeking care at the Monroe site, transportation is available. Telemedicine appointments are also available. Telemedicine allows new and existing patients and physical therapists to connect remotely through a secure video application on a smartphone, desktop or laptop computer for one-on-one care. For more information about Princeton Rehabilitation or to ﬁnd a physical therapist with Princeton Rehabilitation, call 609-853-7840 or visit www.princetonhcs.org.

Princeton voters have chosen Mark Freda to become the town’s second mayor since its consolidation in 2013, and also returned two incumbent Princeton Council members to serve on the governing body in the Nov. 3 general election. Freda received 10,735 votes and council members David Cohen and Leticia Fraga received 10,414 votes and 10,436 votes, respectively, in the final vote tally released Nov. 20 by the Mercer County Board of Elections. Voters cast 10,818 votes in the mayoral election, which included 83 votes for “personal choice,” or write-in candidates. A total of 21,000 votes were cast in the Princeton Council election, which included 150 “personal choice” votes. None of the candidates, who are all Democrats, faced opposition. The mayor’s term is for four years and the Princeton Council terms are for three years. Freda will succeed Mayor Liz Lempert, who did not seek re-election to a third

term. She is the first mayor of the Municipality of Princeton, which was created in 2013 when the former Princeton Borough and the former Princeton Township consolidated. Freda served on the former Princeton Borough Council from 1986-99, including a stint as the Princeton Borough Council president. Freda grew up in Princeton and has volunteered with the Princeton Fire Department. He also has volunteered with the Princeton First Aid and Rescue Squad, of which he is the president. Freda promised to work together with residents to address the challenges and issues as they arise. He pledged to be open and transparent in reaching decisions. “All of us are on the same team – the residents, the elected officials and the town staff – and our goals should all be the same. I look forward to our future and all of us working together,” Freda said. Cohen, who was pleased to have been re-elected, said he does not want voters to think that he takes their support for granted.

Have you ever thought about what it would be like to ﬂy an airplane?

By Gabrielle Nierenberg Imagine sitting in the pilot seat and looking straight out to the horizon to see the blue skies and clouds. And then when you look to your right you see the Philadelphia skyline and to your left New York City the skyline. Flying is an incredible feeling. Talk about seeing the world from a different perspective. Ok, maybe you have flown in a commercial plane to Florida or Utah, but there is something so unique about flying in a single engine airplane. When flying in a Cessna Skyhawk, you are seeing the world from a completely different view than on the ground or a commercial jet. The Princeton Flying School at the Princeton Airport offers an extraordinary experience of an Introductory Flying Lesson. In the beginning you will go

through a pre-flight inspection to ensure the airplane is ready for flight, as all pilots do. Then, you will spend an hour in the air with a certified flight instructor going over some basic maneuvers. You will even get a chance to fly the airplane yourself! But do not worry; there are dual controls in the planes, so the instructor is there to assist you the entire time. When people return from their first Introductory Flying Lesson they are elated and often speechless. Many have said it was their dream to fly a plane, and it finally came true! This is a very special hour. Not only is this a special experience, but it counts as your first hour towards getting your Private Pilot’s License. Many students are inspired during their Introductory Flying Lesson to continue to study and train for

their Private Pilot’s License, while others are completely captivated by this hour and feel fulfilled. Either way, flying an airplane is something very special and you have the power to be the one who makes this experience possible. An Introductory Flying Lesson is the perfect gift to give to that someone who seems to have everything and you just don’t know what to buy. What better gift than an experience of a lifetime. This holiday season struggle no more when it comes to gift giving. As long as they are tall enough to reach the pedals, they can fly. Call 609-921-3100 for more information or visit us on the web at www. PrincetonFlyingSchool.com Happy flying!

“I will always be happy to hear from residents about their concerns, or just to get to know each other better,” Cohen said. In his second term, Cohen said he plans to continue to focus on smart growth and to implement sustainable policies that enhance the livability and economic vitality of Princeton, while also ensuring that the benefits of good environmental policy are enjoyed by all residents. “What this means in practice is to advocate for good design and to reduce the carbon footprint of our affordable housing projects as they move forward,” he said. Making it safe to walk and ride a bicycle around town is another priority, Cohen said. Upgrading the town’s stormwater management capabilities to handle current and future levels of rainfall to prevent flooding is another of his goals for his next term, he said. Fraga also thanked voters for their vote

of confidence in her by granting her a second term. She is proud of what she and her Princeton Council colleagues have accomplished in the past three years. Fraga said her goal has always been to see all residents flourish, and she is grateful to have been given the opportunity to continue that work by the voters. In addition to addressing the issues and initiatives that will come before the Princeton Council, Fraga said she will work to ensure that the Princeton Health Department and the Princeton Human Services Department have the resources they need to meet residents’ needs. “I will continue to work with members of our municipal boards, commissions and committees, as well as our many community partners, to seek community-driven solutions that uphold our share values, with a focus on equity, affordability, prosperity and inclusion,” Fraga said.

Princeton school board election results are finalized By LEA KAHN Staff Writer

When the last votes were tallied, Princeton voters returned two incumbent school board members to office and elected a newcomer to the Princeton Public Schools Board of Education in the Nov. 3 general election. Incumbents Michele Tuck-Ponder and Beth Behrend were re-elected, along with newcomer Jean Durbin, to the school board. School board member Jessica Deutsch did not seek another term on the school board. Tuck-Ponder was the top vote-getter with 5,697 votes, followed by Behrend, who received 5,490 votes, and Durbin, who got 4,522 votes. A total of 29,297 votes were cast, including 106 votes for “personal choice” (write-in candidates), based on the final vote tallies released and certified Nov. 20 by Mercer County officials. Tuck-Ponder, Behrend and Durbin were among eight candidates vying for three seats on the school board. The term is for three years. Behrend said she was “honored by the trust and confidence of Princeton voters” who returned her and Tuck-Ponder to the

school board. “We can now turn our full attention to the many important initiatives that we, in collaboration with our board colleagues, have been working on to better meet the needs of all of our students,” Behrend said. This includes choosing an experienced superintendent of schools to replace former Superintendent of Schools Steve Cochrane, who retired in June, Behrend said. Also on the list is the infusion of racial literacy throughout the K-12 educational program, and the adoption of zero-based budgeting to ensure that every tax dollar is spent effectively, she said. Durbin said she was “delighted” to have been elected to the school board, and expressed her gratitude for the time and effort that people took to speak to her, attend candidate forums and to compare the candidates on the issues. “The issues remain the same as those I have campaigned on,” Durbin said, reeling off a list that includes hiring an experienced superintendent who has strong management skills and a demonstrated record of fostering the principles of equity, access and inclusion.

The hybrid operation is seamless and the gas engine/electric battery combination operates smoothly. However, when it comes to the ride and handling, I found an issue. At normal highway and around town speeds the NX 300h passes the test. It’s fairly nimble and easy to navigate through most daily driving situations. However, I found that at higher speeds – used more aggressively on the Turnpike or Interstate – to make an aggressive pass this vehicle loses its grip on the road a bit and gives the driver a bit of an uneasy feel. It feels a bit top heavy at higher speeds. If you compare just the ride of this NX 300h to the competitors in its group, it comes up a bit short in that category, but far superior in the hybrid technology offered. The BMW X1 or X2, for instance, or the Mercedes GLA or GLB, offer a sportier drive and feel to their compact crossover

SUVs. In the German vehicles I feel that a more secure command of the road is offered at higher speeds or while commandeering more aggressive driving maneuvers. The 2021 Lexus NX 300h F Sport I drove for a week has a base price of $46,810. There were no additional options added to this tester besides a $1,025 charge for destination and delivery, bringing the bottom line sticker price to $47,835. The F Sport black line special edition package my tester came equipped with as standard included: sport tuned suspension; heated steering wheel; front fog and cornering lamps; aluminum pedals; 18-inch F Sport wheels and more. The editors at Car and Driver gave the NX 300 high marks for its “chiseled styling, proper SUV seating and spacious interior.” I would have to agree. This vehicle is quite comfortable and spacious inside for a compact crossover SUV. For low points, the folks at Car and Driver dinged the NX 300 for its “fussy infotainment controller, middle-of-the-pack acceleration and aged styling”. I am not sure I agree about the acceleration knock or the styling comment, but I most certainly do agree with the infotainment controller issue. On the center console, just below the gear shifter, sits a touch pad controller for all the infotainment functions in this vehicle. The touch pad is very sensitive and if you are trying to adjust different functions in this vehicle while you are driving, it can be a very frustrating task. New for 2021 for the NX 300h is blind spot monitoring and the rear cross traffic alert as standard features; an updated low profile wiper blade design; power folding automatic dimming reverse tilt mirrors; and an updated Mark Levinson amplifier for the sound system. Overall, this NX 300h F Sport makes for a quite impressive package, albeit not perfect. Peter Perrotta’s On The Road column appears weekly.

School Board Continued from Page 6A

Setting goals, providing guidance and implementing policy to deliver the best education possible for students, and working to implement measurable steps to close the achievement and opportunity gap round out the issues on which she campaigned, Durbin said. She also wants to find sustainable revenue sources and cost savings while adhering to the 2% tax levy cap. “I would like my work on the school board to be inclusive and for the betterment of our schools and the community,” Durbin said. Meanwhile, school board candidate Adam Bierman placed fourth among the nine candidates for the three school board seats. He earned 3,280 votes. Paul M. Johnson received 3,129 votes, and his running mates – Karen Lemon and William “Bill” Hare, a former school board member – received 2,887 votes and 2,585 votes, respectively. Johnson, Lemon and Hair campaigned together on a slate. Hendricks S. Davis received 1,601 votes.

Obituaries

Elli Rambow Walter January 27, 1927 - November 20, 2020 Elli Rambow Walter, 93, of Plainsboro, New Jersey, very sadly passed away at the Plainsboro Hospital on Friday evening November 20. Elli Walter was born on January 27, 1927 in Meichow, Germany to Karl and Bertha Rambow. Her family heritage was German, French, and Eastern European. Elli attended the University of Marburg in Germany. She met her American husband Paul Walter in Germany when he was working there for the United States government. Prior to moving to Princeton in 1963 Elli worked for Johns Hopkins University and for the University of Pennsylvania. Elli Walter lived in Princeton in the same beautiful house on Loomis Court from 1963 until 2012 when she moved to the lovely Princeton Windrows retirement community. Elli enjoyed classical music, art, reading, ﬁlms, and gardening. She created a lovely and colorful garden around her house. Elli Walter worked as a dedicated staff member in the Princeton University library system for many years (ﬁrst in Firestone Library, and then from 1978 until 1996 in the Marquand Art Library where she was highly appreciated and valued). Elli Walter’s greatest accomplishments were being an exceptionally kind, compassionate, thoughtful, and generous-hearted person; being a wonderful, nurturing, loving, devoted, and supportive mother of her son Hugo, a 1981 graduate of Princeton University, who loved, cherished, admired, respected, and adored her; having an extraordinary appreciation for beauty in everyday life and in art; and having a noble mind, a gracious heart, and a benevolent spirit which enhanced the character, the decency, and the stature of any place and the quality of life in any situation in which she was present. Elli Walter was a beautiful and gentle soul and a radiant presence in the world. Elli Walter is survived by her devoted son Hugo who will love and cherish her forever and by the three daughters, Hannelore, Heidi, and Ute, of her deceased brother Karl and his wife Liesbet and their families in Germany and other parts of Europe and by several relatives in South Carolina and Maryland. Memorial donations may be made to the Marquand Art Library of Princeton University—please see the instructions about making a donation to the Art Library in honor of Elli Walter at the end of her obituary on the MatherHodge Funeral Home website. A memorial service will be held for Elli Walter in the Princeton University Chapel in the future when the pandemic is over. The funeral arrangements are under the direction of the Mather-Hodge Funeral Home in Princeton. Elli Walter was such a wonderful and lovely person and will be deeply and profoundly missed.

. Where did you grow up? A. I grew up in Rockaway NJ in a lake community called White Meadow Lake which is in Morris County. After high school, I attended Ramapo College of New Jersey in Bergen County to obtain my Bachelor Degree in Business. I purchased by first condo in Middlesex County and now I live and raise my family in Hillsborough in Somerset County. I love Hillsborough and it’s central location to everything. I’m a life-long Jersey Girl at heart and understand the demographics and housing market in different communities.

. What do you see in the future for Real Estate sales and prices? A. In my 25 years of selling real estate, I have seen markets swing in varying degrees. I have sold in buyers’ markets and sold in sellers’ markets. Although it is very hard to predict the future, the real estate market has been very strong the last couple of years. Interest rates are at an alltime low so many first-time homebuyers are trying to get into the market. I also see an increase in the number of investors looking to enter the market.

. What do you enjoy doing when you are not working? A. In addition to being with my family, I like to stay active by working out, biking and walking. I also recently completed my first Rugged Maniac race. For the past 10

years, I was a volunteer for the Fresh Air Fund where I was the chairperson for all of Somerset and Hunterdon County. I was responsible for recruiting families to host inner-city children for summer vacations. We were also a host family and enjoyed having kids at our house all summer.

. What are the top 3 things that separate you from your competition? A. First, I take a very honest and comprehensive look at my client’s situation, family, financial goals, and the marketplace. Next, I build a relationship with my client and embrace their goals as my own. Finally, I accept a high level of responsibility for my clients’ satisfaction and achievement of these goals.

. How long have you worked in real estate? A. I started in the mortgage business after college and decided to transition to real estate in 1992. I worked as a sales associate with the Top Producing Agent at Prudential NJ Properties. We were the #1 Award Winning Sales Team in the entire company. I switched to Keller Williams Realty in 2013 and have been a Top Producing Agent as well as the Director of Agent Services. I was also involved in the New Agent Mentoring and Training Program.

. What is your specialty? A. I love working with first time homebuyers. There is nothing more rewarding than helping someone purchase their first home. I also work with investors. I have invested in many properties 2230 Route 206, myself, I’m currently a landlord and I have successfully Belle Mead, NJ 08502 flipped homes. This gives me the experience and 908-359-0893 insight into these markets. In addition, I also sell in a lot in adult communities since many of my clients are downsizing.
