‘I’m an open book’

Stephanie Dumas on unpaid taxes, and her ﬁ rst months on commission Scott Wartman Cincinnati Enquirer

Dumas has tax issues

The race for Hamilton County commissioner last year didn’t garner many headlines. But it ended up as the region's biggest surprise on election night. Little-known Democrat Stephanie Summerow Dumas upset incumbent Chris Monzel, a veteran Republican lawmaker who had served for years on both Cincinnati City Council and the Hamilton County Board of Commissioners. Now with two months under her belt on the Hamilton County Board of Commissioners, here’s what we’ve learned about Dumas:

Tax records revealed Dumas has had a problem paying her income taxes on time in the past eight years. Ohio has assessed at least $17,912 in liens against Dumas since 2011 for income taxes, records ﬁ led with the Hamilton County Clerk of Courts showed. She told The Enquirer her tax issues shouldn't cause concern. She'll be a good steward of the taxpayer dollars. That's important because overseeing taxpayer dollars is the commission's main job. County commissioners can't write laws, but they do manage a lot of money -in this case, Hamilton County's

$239 million annual budget. "I'm an open book," Dumas told The Enquirer. "If anything, it reveals me as a person, a common person with high ethics and integrity." Monzel, Dumas' opponent, didn't bring up the issue during the campaign.

But it should be a concern, he said. "Any elected oﬃ cial delinquent on taxes is just horrible," Monzel told The Enquirer. "Here the public is entrusting you with their taxpayer money." See DUMAS, Page 2A

Hope Squad: Teens helping teens against suicide, mental health ills Anne Saker Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

SHARONVILLE - Jennifer WrightBerryman looked over a room packed with Southwest Ohio teenagers sharing stories about the tough business of personifying hope in high school. “Have people made fun of you for being on Hope Squad?” Wright-Berryman asked, and a wave of assent rolled arose. She nodded. “You are like fi refi ghters. You are fi rst responders. You are responding to all the fi res we have to put out.” More than 450 middle and high school students across Southwest Ohio got excused from class Monday, March 11 to attend the fi rst Ohio Hope Squad Conference at the Sharonville Convention Center. The students and their advisors have formed the region’s fi rst Hope Squads – groups of peers trained to listen to classmates suff ering disappointment, crisis, mental health problems or suicidal thoughts. Hope Squad is a national movement to address the youth-suicide epidemic by countering the notion that teenagers don’t have the maturity to handle heavy emotions. In Ohio, suicide is the second-leading cause of death among teenagers, and adults are wrong to think young people shouldn't talk about suicide, said Wright-Berryman, a suicide expert in the School of Social Work at the University of Cincinnati. She also is the national research director for Hope Squad. “These kids know just how bad the problem is,” she said. “They know better than most adults do.” Hope Squad moved into Southwest Ohio thanks to Diane Egbers of Cincinnati, whose 15-year-old son Grant died of

suicide in 2015. She said that Monday she wanted her foundation, Grant Us Hope, to give teenagers tools and language to help each other. “When Grant died, I knew we had to start doing things diﬀ erently,” Egbers said. “We really hadn’t had any breakthroughs. But I feel strongly that this generation of kids is the one that will change things. They are so much more inclusive and accepting.” Hope Squad started this school year in 39 Southwest Ohio middle and high schools, including Mason High School, the state’s largest. When a new school

year starts in the fall, Egbers said, at least 55 area schools will have Hope Squads. Students recommend classmates to Hope Squad, and squad members receive training in listening to and empathizing with students. The squad members do not oﬀ er counseling or therapy but refer students to adults who can help. Hope Squad's primary task is to oﬀ er a connection and a sense of belonging to all students. But spreading love and caring isn’t easy in the bubbling cauldron of high school. Wright-Berryman led sessions on changing the culture, and Hope

Squad members talked about how often they hear friends say “I’m going to kill myself,” and some joker responds, “OK, Hope Squad, here’s your chance!” Wright-Berryman counseled that teenagers often use threats because they can't ﬁ nd the right words to express anger or sorrow or disappointment. So when faced with a suicide threat, a Hope Squad member can respond, “Are you all right? Because if you’re serious, I’m here for you.” “Your message,” she said, “is that you don’t have to be on Hope Squad to spread hope.”

Dumas Continued from Page 1A

Dumas is far from the only local politician with tax liens. While the other two county commissioners don't have liens, more than one-third of Cincinnati City Council candidates in 2017 had tax liens, the Enquirer found. The Ohio Department of Taxation doesn't release information on how much individuals owe. When a taxpayer is late paying taxes or fails to pay off a debt, the state fi les a lien against that person to collect the tax liability. Since 2011, the state has fi led at least fi ve liens against Dumas, the largest in 2011 for $14,164. For three of the liens from 2015-2016 valued at a total of $3,547, Dumas paid them off one to two years after the lien was fi led, according to receipts fi led with the clerk. "I've been on a fi xed income for quite a while," Dumas told The Enquirer. "I'm on the payment plan. I'm taking care of my responsibility." A retired social worker and former village administrator of Lincoln Heights from 2011 to 2015, she also served as mayor of Forest Park from 1999 to 2005. Her fellow commissioner, Todd Portune, wasn't concerned about Dumas' tax liens. He called it a non-story and "gotcha" journalism. "The IRS allows people to set up payment plans," Portune said. "Those rules are there for a purpose. Life involves all sorts of issues and challenges."

A sexual harassment lawsuit in Lincoln Heights Interviews with Lincoln Heights offi cials didn't reveal much about her track record. During Dumas' fi ve years with Lincoln Heights, the city eliminated its police force in the face of what the village's mayor at the time called "frivolous lawsuits." The Lincoln Heights Police lost its insurance. The fi re chief sued Dumas for sexual harassment. The accusations then-Fire Chief Mike Solomon leveled in the lawsuit against Dumas dealt with off hand remarks and innuendo. Solomon said in the lawsuit that when he got divorced, Dumas told him, "Now we can get married." Other remarks Solomon said Dumas made to him included, "I should have saw her on Sunday, because of the outfi t she had on" and asking him if he was sexually active. Solomon claimed he was suspended in retaliation for rejecting her advances. The Village of Lincoln Heights settled the case for an undisclosed amount. Dumas, in an interview with The Enquirer, denied she said those things. The lawsuit was fi led in retaliation for the fi ring of two other fi refi ghters for lack of training and poor performance, she said. The city settled the suit rather than spend more money to fi ght it, she said. "It is absolutely not true," Dumas said. "They are not valid. It was just more fi scally responsible to go and settle." Solomon didn't want to comment when contacted by The Enquirer, but he said he stands by what he said in the lawsuit. Former Lincoln Heights mayor and current councilmember Laverne Mitchell didn't have much to say about Dumas. She's served on the council since 2000

Who is Dr. Sohi?

Denise Driehaus, president of the Hamilton County Board of Commissioners, had no comment. All three commissioners are Democrats. Records showed neither Portune nor Driehaus had unpaid taxes.

and been mayor oﬀ and on since then, including during most of Dumas' tenure. How good of a village administrator was she? "She did some good things for us," Mitchell said. "She was adequate."

Dumas has questioned county spending In the fi rst two months as a county commissioner, Dumas has shown she's concerned about county spending. She's questioned the other two commissioners and staff in most meetings to learn how the Hamilton County government operates. She’s asked for more time to review contracts, monthly reports on the county’s fi nances and what diff erent spending items are for. The Hamilton County Board of Commissioners hasn’t taken up anything controversial in Dumas’ fi rst two months. So far, it appears Dumas and the other two commissioners get along, at least publicly. Dumas’ election to the Hamilton County Board of Commissioners marked the fi rst time all three commissioners are Democrats. Some tension behind the placid surface appeared on Feb. 21 when Dumas cast her only vote against the other two commissioners. The issue involved fi ve contracts authorizing the county to spend up to $200,000 with engineering companies to test the quality of materials and equipment on construction projects. Dumas questioned why the contracts included renewals for two additional years. Maybe other companies would like a chance to bid at a lower price, Dumas suggested. County Engineer Ted Hubbard explained that adding the years in the contract doesn’t obligate the county to retain the same fi rms but saves the county time and money from having to start from scratch every year in bidding out for these services. Driehaus, the president of the commission, tried bring the matter to a vote. “You as president should want me to get clarity on the issues,” Dumas said. Driehaus replied in a fi rm voice. “I think we have clarity on the issue.” The commission voted 2-1 to approve the fi ve contracts. Dumas' chief of staff has also raised some eyebrows in political circles. We Gladly Accept Food Stamps

The person picked to manage the dayto-day aff airs of her offi ce is a pediatric dentist from Norwood, Dr. Paul Sohi. Within a month of being hired, he fi led a complaint alleging harassment from the other two commissioners and their staff s. He's also been plaintiff or defendant in a number of civil cases, according to records in the Hamilton County Clerk's offi ce and the Ohio Court of Appeals. Some of the cases are debt disputes with credit companies. But one case, a "litigation odyssey" as the Court of Common Pleas documents described it, accounts for boxes fi lled with thousands of pages, depositions and exhibits. The odyssey began in 1995, when a former offi ce manager for Sohi and two dental assistants made shocking accusations. They claimed Sohi violently threatened children who were his patients. According to sworn depositions and a charge from the Ohio State Dental Board, former employees claimed he grabbed and choked one child, placed some children in headlocks, threatened another child with a needle full of anesthetic placed between the eyes and pinned a child against the wall and shook him. The dental board had suspended Sohi for six months. After four years of appeals, a Hamilton County magistrate in 2000 threw the suspension out on a technicality – the dental board did not fi le the appropriate papers on time. Sohi, in an interview with The Enquirer, insisted the allegations came from disgruntled employees. That was the same argument he made in court documents 20 years ago. Sohi said he used the case to push for change in how the dental board investigates complaints. "This is a prime example of how politics and corruption invade the health care system," Sohi said. "It has made me stronger. It has made me a better, wellrounded person." He told The Enquirer he's cutting back on his dentistry practice to part-time for this political appointment that pays $65,000 a year. Politics is his "foremost passion." Sohi ran for state senate in 2014 and state representative in 2016 and 2018. He lost every time. He won election to the Democratic state executive committee last year. He said he met Dumas in March. He volunteered for her campaign and donated $1,250 to it. Both bonded over not receiving the Democratic Party's endorsement in the primary. "We had instantly connected because of that situation," Sohi told The Enquirer, referring to the lack of endorsements. Sohi and Dumas said they are focused on making the county better and cutting government waste. In one of her fi rst acts, Dumas introduced a resolution passed by the threemember county board of commissioners recognizing Black History Month. "It is only 45 days," Sohi said. "We have made great strides. You will see more and more of us."

Police: Tennis coach sought sex with teen Max Londberg Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A longtime tennis instructor who gave lessons in at least three area cities has been arrested after an investigation by an internet crimes against children unit within the Kenton County Police Department.

Simple and safe to use, Narcan can save lives Our community continues to struggle with the impact of opioid use. But we are also mobilizing in response to this epidemic of addiction. Police, firefighters, paramedics, health care workers, elected officials, community leaders and others have come together to reduce the harm to our friends and family from substance abuse.

O’dell M. Owens, MD, MPH President & CEO

Sometimes, simple strategies can have an impact—for opioid use, administering Narcan is one such action. People who are exposed to these drugs, whether through illicit use or by prescription, are at risk for an overdose. Fortunately, Narcan is a safe, effective tool to reverse opioid overdoses and save lives. Narcan, also called naloxone, works by binding to the opioid receptors in a person’s brain and reversing the effects of opioids. It is extremely safe to use, and has an effect only on a person with opioids in his or her system. The surgeon general recently recommended that if you are likely to encounter someone who uses opioids, you should carry Narcan. In many local communities, partners are working to make Narcan widely available and me easure the impact of this strategy on opioid-related death hs. Some of this work is supported by Interact for Healtth. Narcan is effective and easy y to use, and kits are often available at low or no cost. It can keep someone alive until emergency medical help arrives.To get a Narcan kit, contact your local health department.

Finneytown Local Schools exceeded expectations and attendance for World Culture Night this year. The inclusive event celebrated the diverse community and the families that make the community stand out. Over 500 people experienced 23 booths that represented 17 countries or cultures. During the event, families and groups shared a native country and provided information about the country and culture. Some shared pictures, fun facts, clothing, and artifacts that represent the country and culture. Some off ered native dishes such as empanadas from Guatemala and guacamole from Mexico. Songs played from booths from different countries, and several groups of students performed dances from their countries. Several businesses and community groups participated to support the cultural diversity and awareness within the Finneytown community. Springfi eld Township Arts Connect. Skyline, LaRosas, Jersey Mike’s, Humbert’s Meats and Taj Mahal Indian restaurant all donated food or coupons to hand out. Furthermore, a Cincinnati booth was available with Cincinnati favorites such as goetta, brats, and LaRosas, as well as a Finneytown booth with history, yearbooks, local restaurant touches and Pringles (the Pringles name originated from Finneytown). Additionally, prior to the WCN event, students in the elementary schools learned about diversity and diff erences by reading the books It’s Okay to be Different and Be Who You Are by Todd Parr. They also created Todd Parr like characters of their own, which are hanging in Brent’s lobby. If every country was presented for students in Finneytown, we would have at least 40 countries. World Culture night has just become another way for Finneytown to showcase and celebrate the diversity in our community. Missy Knight

Five CHCA seniors named National Merit Finalists Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy is pleased to announce that all fi ve of our National Merit semifi nalists have advanced to National Merit Finalist standing. Seniors Chanse Ashman (of Sycamore Township), Douglas Hansford (of Indian Hill), Abby Jutt (of Mason), Hannah Odom (of Mason), and Sydney Sauer (of Sharonville) all received notifi cation that they are advancing to the fi nal round of the competition. “We are so proud of our National Merit Finalists. They are not just exceptional students but they are bright, energetic leaders in our community. We are excited to see where they will end up, not just in their college choices, but in the greater world, using their God-given abilities,” commented Upper School Principal Dean Nicholas. According to the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), all winners of Merit Scholarship awards (Merit Scholar designees) are chosen from the Finalist group, based on their abilities, skills, and accomplishments– without regard to gender, race, ethnic origin, or religious preference. A variety of information is available for NMSC selectors to evaluate: the Finalist’s academic record, information about the school’s curricula and grading system, two sets of test scores, the high school offi cial’s written recommendation, information about the student’s activities and leadership, and the Finalist’s own essay. The process now begins for selecting 7,500 Merit Scholarship winners from the group of more than 15,000 fi nalists. In March, NMSC will begin mailing scholarship off ers to winners at their home addresses and confi dential notices to their high school principals. Students will receive a letter at their home informing them that they have become Finalists, and they will be recognized at CHCA’s Diaspeiro Baccalaureate Service the evening of May 31st. Congratulations to these students and their amazing accomplishment.

Lent is perfect time to try super simple salmon Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Yesterday, I was buying salmon for dinner since the variety we like was on sale. Lent is one of the best times to buy seafood. There are good bargains so if you’ve had an urge to try a new kind of seafood, this is the time to do it. Tom Keegan of Keegan’s Seafood, Hyde Park has good advice for cooking seafood. “Quality seafood doesn’t have to be fussed with. Simple cooking is best.” And simple usually means quick. Try this super simple salmon recipe with an herb drizzle and you’ll understand that concept. Maybe you want to skip the herb drizzle and go with a dollop of tartar sauce. If you don’t have chives, mince up the green part of green onions. I subbed some wild green onions for the chives. Abundant, and free.

Is it fresh? Tips on buying ﬁ sh

Super simple salmon. RITA HEIKENFELD/PROVIDED

Super simple salmon This yummy recipe originated in my recipe group. It’s a reliable technique to roast salmon regardless of the way you ﬁ nish it off. I served it on top of pasta — but the salmon is totally good on its own, too.

Extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper

Roast until ﬁ rm — my two, 8 oz. thick pieces took 10 minutes.

Herb drizzle

Salmon flakes easily with a fork when done, so don’t overcook as it dries out and flavor is compromised.

⁄ 3 cup extra virgin olive oil

2 teaspoons each minced fresh or dried dill, chives and parsley or to taste 3 tablespoons or more fresh lemon juice

I tossed the pasta with a little olive oil and showered it with Parmesan.

Salt and pepper Instructions

INGREDIENTS

Preheat oven to 450. Drizzle salmon with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper.

Salmon 2 thick cut salmon ﬁ lets, 6-8 oz.

Place salmon on pasta, drizzle herb mixture on top, and let some drip onto pasta. Good for you Salmon contains omega 3 fatty acids - health for your brain, heart, skin, hair and nails, among other beneﬁ ts.

Whole fi sh: Look for bright, clear eyes and a shiny, metallic skin. Gills will be red. Give it a sniff : it should smell clean or a bit like the sea. Some folks equate the smell with fresh cucumbers. Filets: If it has skin, it should look shiny and metallic. Vibrant fl esh is a good indication. Do the sniff test: no funky smell. Shellfi sh: Mussels, clams, oysters sold alive. Shells should be closed. Shells should open up after cooking. If not, it died, so toss it. Scallops: Best are “dry packed” meaning they’re not shipped and stored in brine. Shrimp: Buy whole, frozen and peel yourself or buy thawed. I like to buy larger ones when on sale. Farm raised or wild caught? Check out my site for a comprehensive primer.

Viewpoints What is active aging? Maple Knoll Village

Aging happens to everyone. But while everyone might age, choosing to live an active lifestyle can help making aging well more possible. The World Health Organization defi nes healthy or active aging as “developing and maintaining the functional ability that enables wellbeing in older age.” And while some people may have health conditions that limit them somewhat, everyone can pursue an active lifestyle within their abilities. Active aging describes individuals and populations who live life as fully as possible within the seven dimensions of wellness: emotional, vocational, physical, spiritual, intellectual, social and environmental. The foundation for an active life is physical activity, but the other aspects of living a full and fulfi lling life also play a role in staying happy and healthy as you age. The aim of active aging is to keep body, mind and communities active and engaged, both for the benefi t of the individual’s health and for the happiness and wellbeing of all. Physical activity has a profound effect on individuals. Incorporating physical activity into a daily or weekly routine can have immense positive results, even in a short time. It is a major component of active aging, and can benefi t individuals by: ❚ Preventing or controlling the most common chronic diseases, like diabetes and cardiovascular disease. ❚ Enabling people to function independently so they enjoy and grow in their lives.

❚ Allowing people to stay part of the active lives of their children, grandchildren and communities. Everyone wants to remain independent and active to enjoy life to the fullest. The best way to pursue lifelong wellness is to commit to an active lifestyle and start moving. Older people might be intimidated by the idea of just hitting the gym, but the good news is that there are fi tness programs designed specifi cally with older adults needs in mind, as well as lots of steps and activities that can help create an active lifestyle. For those who want to start pursuing an active lifestyle as they age, some simple activities can help start you on the right path: 1 Walking or hiking- Getting out for a walk is a fantastic fi rst step to living a more active lifestyle. And the best part is that you can do it just about anywhere and keep great company at the same time. Taking a walk with a friend, your family members or even the dog can be great exercise and a great opportunity to spend quality time with someone. 2 Stretching- Moving your muscles and joints by stretching is a great way to get active in a low impact way. This is a very easy way to ease into exercise, and it is something most people can do on their own, too. Stretching can happen whether you’re standing, sitting or lying down, too, which makes it accessible to almost everyone. When you feel like you are ready for more, joining a yoga class is a great way to stay moving,

build strength and fl exibility and get mentally centered at the same time. 3 Swimming or water aerobics – Swimming and water aerobics are a tried and true method of being active while protecting your joints from impact. Strength and stamina are quick to build up with water exercises, and these activities can be enjoyed by yourself or with friends and an instructor. Plus, being in the water always feels good. 4 Goal setting- Setting goals isn’t physical exercise, but it can be a great workout all the same. Creating challenges for yourself and attaining them is a huge boost for self-confi dence and will help give you direction for your activities. Having a plan for how to reach your goals is also a great mental workout to help your brain stay active, too. Maple Knoll Village, a continuing care retirement community, is proud to off er

a Wellness Center that caters to the many needs of its residents and has a goal of improving the quality of life of older adults to increase independence. Exercise physiologists, fi tness specialists, physical and occupational therapists, aquatic instructors, massage therapist and yoga instructors are all available to help residents feel confi dent as they pursue their active living goals. There are multiple programs and over 30 weekly classes off ered, specifi cally tailored to the needs of older adults, as well as a fi tness room and warm water pool. For every fi tness level and interest, the Hemsworth Wellness Center off ers a program. To fi nd out more, visit the Maple Knoll website or call (513)782-2717.

Sports Aiken falls to Trotwood in regional semiﬁ nal Shelby Dermer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Lucas Byrd of La Salle tightens his grip on his way to a state title in the 120-pound class at the Division I OHSAA individual state wrestling tournament at Ohio State on March 9. GEOFF BLANKENSHIP/ FOR THE ENQUIRER

Here are the 2019 area high school wrestling champions Melanie Laughman Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Greater Cincinnati area sent eight wrestlers to the 2019 Ohio High School Athletic Association fi nal matches and came back with fi ve champions. Here are the winners and runners-up from that group. In addition, La Salle fi nished runner-up as a team.

Dustin Norris, La Salle, 113 pounds He beat his opponent, Logan Agin of Lancaster, by a 3-2 decision to win La Salle High School's third state championship in history. He ﬁ nished second in the 106-pound weight class last year. "It's amazing, because last year I was 10 seconds away from getting it. So now it's just surreal," he said. "Last year I cheered on my teammate Lucas after I had lost and it was a big deal for him being the ﬁ rst one in about 50 years. So for me to come back right before him, it's just amazing."

Lucas Byrd, La Salle, 120 pounds The senior beat Jake Canitano of Solon by an 8-1 decision to win his second-straight state championship. He is the ﬁ rst Lancer to ever win two wrestling titles, after he won the 113-pound weight class in 2018. He also was a state placer in 2017 (third, 106 pounds) and 2016 (seventh, 106 pounds). "God gives you these opportunities and it's the people that succeed that kinda say, 'I'm going to go after this.' Every time I step on that line, it's 'I'm going to get this done. I'm going to win.' This morning, I looked myself in the mirror and said, 'I'm going to win a state title today,'" he said.

Christopher Donathan, Mason, 145 pounds The senior wrestled Bryce Andonian of Lakewood St. Edward and won 6-5 in a match that had a lot crowd support. Chris ﬁ nished second in last year's meet, also at the 145-pound

weight class. "I was ﬁ red up, man. I wanted this really badly," he said. "...Man, I was nervous. Once I got out there and started wresting, I felt great. It's amazing. A true honor to be a state champ." Donathan's brother, Zack, won the 2017 state title at 132 pounds. His coach then? Current La Salle coach Ryan Root.

Trey Sizemore, La Salle, 182 pounds The senior beat Ben Vanadia of Brecksville-Broadview Heights 7-1 for La Salle's third state title for the tournament. He ﬁ nished seventh in the state at 160 pounds last season. "It's overwhelming, the feeling," he said. "I've got 13 years of blood, sweat and tears. There so many people who've helped me through this entire trip. It's been a long way coming. It feels so good to ﬁ nally achieve it." Sizemore signed his National Letter of Intent in November to wrestle at Brown University.

Alex Coleman, Ross, 285 pounds In Division II, Coleman upset undefeated reigning heavyweight champ Jack DelGarbino of Girard by a 10-7 decision in his fi rst trip to state. "Probably the best thing in the world because I've wrestled (DelGarbino) before and he cleaned my pants off in those matches," he said. "So it was great to come back and fi nally be able to stay on the mat with him." With the win, Coleman becomes the fi rst wrestling state champion in the history of Ross High School.

Runners-up Jordan Ward of Moeller fi nished as runner-up in the 132-pound weight class, after bowing to Mick Burnett of Elyria 2-1. Jake Niff enegger of La Salle lost 7-2 to Lakewood St. Edward's Bryce Hepner in the 138-pound weight class. Michael Baker of La Salle lost in the 195-pound match to Seth Shumate of Dublin Coff man by an 11-3 decision.

KETTERING – Back in the regional tournament for the second time in four years, the Aiken boys basketball team saw its season end in the Sweet 16 Thursday night, falling to reigning state runner-up Trotwood-Madison, 96-62, at Kettering’s Trent Arena. The Falcons were vying for their second all-time trip to Columbus and the state Final Four after winning a regional title in 2016 before bowing to Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary’s in the state semifi nal. Aiken went a combined 17-32 in 2017 and 2018, but turned the corner this season with sectional and district titles. The Falcons were co-champions in the Cincinnati Metro Athletic Conference and fi nish the year 20-7. "I have mixed emotions. It defi nitely hurts," Aiken head coach Ty Cass said. "When you get this far, you just wish you could have played better. But I'm happy for our seniors. No one thought we could make it here, no one thought we could win 20 games or win a sectional or district championship. I'm pleased for our seniors. That was the group I had when I fi rst got the job, so for us to go from winning six games to 20 it's been second to none." Aiken’s season-ending defeat extends Greater Cincinnati’s state championship drought in Division II. The area has not had a boys basketball team play in a D-II state fi nal since Roger Bacon beat the Lebron James-led Fighting Irish of St. Vincent-St. Mary’s in 2002. Trotwood-Madison has now eliminated the last-standing Cincinnati-area D-II boys basketball squad in consecutive years after downing Hughes in last year’s regional semifi nals. "Trotwood is tough. They are like sharks in the water when they smell blood," Cass said. "They did exactly what I thought they would do, I just wish we could've handled it better. They have to be the favorite and that's what I told coach Rocky (Rockhold) is 'Go win it.' " Aiken welcomed the underdog label going into Thursday’s clash with the streaking Rams after beating McNicholas in the second round, state-ranked Wyoming for a sectional title and Kettering Alter for a district championship after trailing by as many as 18 points. But Thursday was not a story of David overthrowing Goliath as TrotwoodMadison, winners of 15 straight, continued its torment against its D-II counterparts. The Rams’ off ense, which averages over 100 points per game, welcomed a run-and-gun shootout against the uptempo Falcons. Thursday’s clash featured impeccable speed as the two team’s continuously raced up and down the fl oor, but Aiken was left aching with no answer for the plethora of scorers donned in red and black jerseys. The Rams jumped out to a 7-0 lead and their severe full-court press harassment forced four Aiken turnovers before the Falcons had attempted a shot. Trotwood-Madison senior Amari Davis scored seven points in the fi rst quarter, but was tagged with a technical foul and sat the entire second period. Davis returned in the third quarter, pouring in 10 points. The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay signee fi nished with a game-high 23 points as the Rams put fi ve in double fi gures. Carl Blanton made 11 of Trotwood's 30 free throws and fi nished with 18, Malachi Matthews hit a pair of 3-pointers and totaled 16. Sammy Anderson had 15 and Keon'te

Huguely chimed in with 11. Both teams were issued a pair of technical fouls in a fi rst half that had a total of 27 fouls called. Each squad would get T'd up in the fourth quarter and the game ended with 50 total personal fouls. Cass was issued a technical while arguing the T drawn by D'Arris Dean when the left-hander went to the free throw line with 3:17 left in the fi rst half. Trotwood head coach Rocky Rockhold also was called for a technical in the waning moments of the fourth quarter. "I talked to Coach Rocky after the game and we both thought it was pretty bad," Cass said. "When you get up this far, games aren't refereed like this during the regular season. When we get up here the referees are reffi ng for their assignments or to make it to state, and to me, they get tight. I thought a couple of them were bush league, but it is what it is." Dean, after leading Aiken's comeback eff ort at UD Arena against Alter, fi nished with 21 points on 6-for-13 shooting to lead the Falcons. Sophomore Jakada Stone scored seven of his 14 points in the fi rst quarter. Tremaine Smith had a game-high 11 rebounds. But Aiken fell victim to a trapping defense that Trotwood has mastered in recent seasons. The Rams racked up 23 turnovers that turned into 25 points and ignited a running clock late in the fourth quarter. But Aiken kept its high intensity throughout the night, even when trailing by 30-plus points and the crowd applauded the departing seniors. One of those was Dean, who notched his fi nal point for Aiken with a free throw with under a minute left. "If we're going to go out, we're going to go out our way," Cass said.

Charlie Fredrick’s impact on Greater Cincinnati high school sports lasted for decades and was felt on both sides of the Ohio River. The former Newport Catholic football and basketball star and long-time coach and athletic director at Newport Catholic, Highlands, Greenhills and Winton Woods high schools died at the age of 82 on March 8, leaving behind a legacy of athletic achievements that his family continues to enhance. How strong was his impact? The cellphone voicemail box of Joe Fredrick, Charlie and Mary Jo’s youngest son, quickly ﬁ lled up with condolence messages. “Big loss,” Joe said. “It’s been like nothing you can ever imagine. It’s just amazing. As long as I can remember, everywhere I’d go – Greenhills, on the road, at Notre Dame, here in Northern Kentucky – people would come up to me daily and talk about my dad.” Charlie Fredrick graduated from Newport Catholic in 1955 after earning ﬁ ve varsity letters, two in basketball and three in football, and led Northern Kentucky in rushing during his senior football season. He capped his high school football career by scoring three touchdowns and kicking two PATs in a 20-20 tie with McNicholas. He earned a football scholarship to Notre Dame, where he was part of the 1958 team that snapped Oklahoma’s 47-

game winning streak. After graduating, Fredrick returned to Greater Cincinnati and embarked on a remarkable career, starting in 1961 with Fredrick coaching Thoroughbred football. He started the Newport Catholic track-and-ﬁ eld program in 1963 and won Ninth Region championships in 1964 and 1965, helped by hurdler and later Boston Celtics great Dave Cowens. Fredrick also spent a year on the Highlands’ staﬀ , but after failing to land the Bluebirds’ head football coach job, he moved across the river to coach football at Greenhills. He learned about the opening from former Pioneers’ athletic director and football coach Ralph Staub. “Ralph Staub was at (the University of Cincinnati) and he asked me if I was interested in a job,” Charlie once recalled. “I had three kids and one on the way. I was very interested.” Fredrick was named Greenhills’ athletic director in 1971 and served as the Winton Woods school district’s athletic coordinator for 28 years, overseeing in 1991 the merger of its athletic department with Forest Park High School’s when the district lumped the two schools together as one. He retired in 1998. Fredrick and his wife, Mary Jo, had four children – Chuck, Mike, Maureen and Joe – whose names dominate the Greenhills record books. Chuck’s son, See FREDRICK, Page 3B

Why Haven’t Senior Homeowners Been Told These Facts?

Keep reading if you own a home in the U.S. and were born before 1957. It’s a well-known fact that for many senior citizens in the U.S. their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their total net worth. Yet, according to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 6.1 trillion dollars of unused home equity.1 With people now living longer than ever before and home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or “HECM” loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. However, today, there are still millions of eligible homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret.” Some homeowners think HECM loans sound “too good to be true.” After all, you get the cash you need out of your home but you have no more monthly mortgage payments.

NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?2 EXTRA CASH? It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a governmentinsured HECM loan;2 however the homeowners are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Another fact many are not aware of is that HECM reverse mortgages first took hold when President Reagan signed the FHA Reverse Mortgage Bill into law 29 years ago in order to help senior citizens remain in their homes. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions. For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors

At Twin Towers, patio home living brings more than a beautiful place to live. It’s a lifestyle filled with opportunities to expand your horizons, meet new people and enjoy life your way.

FACT: In 1988, President Reagan signed an FHA bill that put HECM loans into law.

living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. That’s a shame because HECM loans are helping many senior homeowners live a better life. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 90% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for any purpose. Many people use the money to save on interest charges by paying off credit cards or other highinterest loans. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a “safety net” for financial emergencies. If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make an informed decision. Homeowners who are interested in learning more can request a free 2019 HECM loan Information Kit and free Educational DVD by calling American Advisors Group toll-free at 1-800-791-7450. At no cost or obligation, the professionals at AAG can help you find out if you qualify and also answer common questions such as: 1. What’s the government’s role? 2. How much money might I get? 3. Who owns the home after I take out a HECM loan? You may be pleasantly surprised by what you discover when you call AAG for more information today.

A reverse mortgage increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan). AAG works with other lenders and financial institutions that offer reverse mortgages. To process your request for a reverse mortgage, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of reverse mortgage programs that they offer. When the loan is due and payable, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan with interest from other proceeds. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium, closing costs and servicing fees (added to the balance of the loan). The balance of the loan grows over time and AAG charges interest on the balance. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage loan is tax-deductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. Consult your tax advisor. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, maintenance, and related taxes (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. A set-aside account can be set up to pay taxes and insurance and may be required in some cases. Borrowers must occupy home as their primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan also becomes due and payable (and the property may be subject to a tax lien, other encumbrance, or foreclosure) when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, defaults on taxes, insurance payments, or maintenance, or does not otherwise comply with the loan terms.

ognize and kill cancer, and then infuse them back into the patient. The modifi ed cells stay in the body where they continue to multiply and then destroy the cancer cells. CAR-T provides a cancer treatment option when standard treatments are not eff ective. That was the case with Winton Woods resident, Ed Reising. Mr. Reising, who was diagnosed with lymphoma, became OHC’s fi rst CAR-T patient on October 8, 2018. Today, Mr. Reising appears to be in remission, and he and his wife are planning a trip to Germany to visit their grandchildren. “CAR-T is one of the most exciting breakthroughs for cancer treatment since chemotherapy. We are literally retraining our body’s own immune system to recognize cancer cells and destroy them. And not just once, but in an ongoing state. This is a true game-changer,” added Dr. Essell. OHC has the only cancer specialists in the region certifi ed to off er this advanced treatment to adults and the Blood Cancer Center at The Jewish Hospital is one of a few centers in the U.S. with certifi cation. For more information, contact OHC at 1-888-649-4800. OHC (Oncology Hematology Care) has been fi ghting cancer on the front lines for more than three decades. OHC is the region’s leading experts in the treatment of nearly every form of adult cancer and complex blood disorder. OHC off ers the latest medical, gynecologic and radiation therapy, and is always seeking better treatment options through participation in clinical trials. OHC is an affi liate of The US Oncology Network, one of the nation’s largest networks of integrated, community-based oncology practices dedicated to advancing high-quality, evidence-based cancer care. At its heart, our approach to cancer care is simple – to surround you with everything you need so you can focus on what matters most: beating cancer. For

Jeff laid out the grid. Sophia did most of the fill. They each wrote half the clues. Sophia says, ‘‘The entire puzzle took nearly a hundred emails back and forth to create.’’ — W.S.
