Cars keep hitting people. And it’s only getting worse

It was about 6 p.m., dark and drizzling rain. John Eby was at the corner of Harrison and Epworth avenues in Westwood, waiting to cross the street. The light changed. Eby stepped out. And then – black. “I don’t remember getting hit,” Eby said. “I don’t remember hitting the street.” When he came to, the 57-year-old West Sider was lying on his back, staring up at a big, leafy tree. He rolled over and saw an SUV tire, and that’s when the ﬁrst shock of pain hit. Eby was one of at least 428 pedestrians hit by a vehicle in Cincinnati in 2018, according to an Enquirer analysis of police crash reports. That’s a 46 percent increase over 2013. And, it’s an average of more than

eight pedestrian crashes every week. This is a problem plaguing our city and the nation as a whole – more people getting hit and dying as they navigate streets on foot. Experts blame distracted driving, texting while walking and roads that were designed with cars rather than people in mind. The Detroit Free Press points to the rise of SUVs, which, with their higher front ends, are “at least twice as likely as cars to kill the walkers, joggers and children they hit.” Whatever the cause, the consequences of vehicles colliding with people can be devastating. Witnesses told Eby he went up and over the hood of the SUV. There was a big gash in his knee, which was scraped raw and gushing blood. He had a mild concussion, and he was so sore he couldn’t sit up straight for two days. It hurt to breathe, lie down, sit up or walk.

“It hurt all the time for those ﬁrst two days,” he said. “Honestly, I was just thankful to be alive. … I realized while lying on our couch in pain that if he had been driving 10 miles per hour faster, I may not have been able to spend the holidays with my family ever again.”

It happens all the time Cincinnati’s ﬁrst pedestrian crash of 2018 was on Jan. 1 at 2:31 p.m. The last of the year was Dec. 31 at 5:05 p.m. There were 426 in between. This matters because, whether it’s the driver or pedestrian at fault, every single crash sucks up police time and resources. Many of these accidents also mean broken bones and hospital bills. There can be painful recoveries and – in the worst cases – family members left behind, grieving a father, a mother, a son, a daughter.

Planning chair: Soccer stadium will ‘elevate us ... internationally’ Sharon Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cincinnati’s planning commission recently approved zoning for FC Cincinnati’s Major League Soccer stadium in the West End, but deferred all decisions about infrastructure, parking and design until ﬁnal plans are presented this spring.

How to submit news

The decision now heads to city council for approval. And, if that’s granted, it will allow construction to start, which is crucial for the project to stay on track for a March 2021 opening. While not all members of council approved the project, a survey of council members show the plan will garner approval. Currently, only demolition of the site is underway.

On Dec. 30, a driver plowed into a family on the Hopple Street sidewalk. The mother and father survived, but the child, a 2-year-old in a stroller, died. In September, 15-year-old Gabriella Rodriguez died after a hit-skip crash on Harrison Avenue. The freshman at Western Hills University High School was crossing the street that morning, trying to get to her bus stop on her way to school. In an update to city council on Monday, Jan. 7, police said there has been no substantial progress in finding the driver who fled the scene. Twelve other Cincinnati Public Schools students were injured in 2018 while crossing the street, leading to protests and calls for change. “These are kids,” said Cincinnati City Councilman Greg Landsman, who is proposing stricter traffic enforcement, more two-way streets and more four-

way stops to help slow down drivers. It would require a change to the city code, but Landsman also wants to equip police oﬃcers with handheld cameras that would catch speeders and automatically mail them a ticket. Once people have to pay money, he said, they might start to pay attention. “When children die, it’s time to put everything on the table,” he said, “and that’s what we’re doing. It can’t just be a crosswalk here and a traﬃc light there.”

What’s to blame? Pedestrian deaths are skyrocketing nationwide, going from 4,302 in 2010 to 5,987 in 2016, the latest year for which data are available from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. In 2016, a pedestrian in the U.S. was killed nearly every hour and a half on average, and one in five of those deaths involved a hit-skip driver. In Ohio in 2017, there were 144 pedestrian fatalities, the latest data available. That’s the highest pedestrian death toll in a decade, said Matt Bruning, Ohio Department of Transportation press secretary. In Cincinnati, police recorded seven pedestrian deaths each in 2016, 2017 and 2018. (Those stats do not line up exactly with the national data, likely due to varying methods of classification. Some victims who died after the fact may also be excluded.) Eby thinks this problem has a lot to do with priorities. If city council decides pedestrian safety is a priority and the police chief decides the same, and that carries down to every officer on the street, the situation might change. “I’m convinced it’s enforcement,” Eby said. “Cops stopping vehicles, saying, ‘You’re going too fast. Slow down.’” Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld thinks we might need to completely redesign our

streets, slowing down drivers and giving pedestrians more space and comfort. Decades of urban planning have favored cars over people, and that’s why we’re in this situation, Sittenfeld said. “I’ve said repeatedly, the one thing that should cause optimism is it’s not some intractable societal problem,” he said. “We know what the solutions are, it’s just about implementing them.”

‘But I’m hopeful. And I pray.’

In the last month of 2018, as families were shopping and celebrating and enjoying time oﬀ work and school, there were 41 reports of pedestrians being hit by cars in Cincinnati. On Christmas Day, a driver hit a man in a crosswalk Downtown, at the intersection of Sycamore and 12th streets. That was a hit-skip crash. The pedestrian was taken to the hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries. On New Year’s Eve in Hyde Park, a driver ran into a 27-year-old woman in a parking lot. The driver, a 48-year-old man, then followed the woman into a store and “yelled derogatory and racial comments at her,” according to the police report. On Dec. 28, Carol Eubanks was sitting in her West End home. It was about 9:45 p.m., and her adult son, Mark Eubanks, had gone out to buy Powerball tickets for the two of them. But Mark didn’t come back. Instead, there was a neighbor pounding on the door, saying Mark had been hit by a car.

Carol rushed outside and saw police and paramedics everywhere. She kept asking what had happened, but it was difficult to get any information. She saw Mark and called his name, but he just seemed dazed. Mark, 48, was in the crosswalk on Linn Street when he got hit. But the driver said she had a green light, and Mark couldn’t remember at the time whether he had a walk signal, according to the police report. Mark had been using a cane because he got hit by a car in July while he was riding his bike, Carol said. That was a hit-and-run, and Mark was just about to get the pin out of his leg, Carol said. And now, this. She thought at first it was just his leg that was injured, but she quickly learned the situation was much worse. Mark was taken to the hospital with what the police report called “incapacitating injuries.” As of last Thursday, he was in critical condition, Carol said. “They’re trying to do what they can,” she said, “but I don’t know.” Going over the details of the crash, she is angry and confused and wants answers the sparse police write-up doesn’t offer. “I am scared,” she said. “But I’m hopeful. And I pray. It’s out of my hands, and I just have to depend on the doctors up at UC and on God to help him.” Investigative and Enterprise Editor Mark Wert contributed to this story.

The Country Music Association Foundation has donated $15,481 to purchase musical instruments for students at Gilbert A. Dater High School. With the donation, the school will purchase saxophones, trumpets, trombones, clarinets, flutes and percussion and allows Dater High to offer band classes to seventh- and eighth-graders. Cincinnati Public Schools applied for the grant from the CMAF and was chosen this fall as a grant recipient. “We know the benefits of musical instruction for nurturing students’ creative and problem-solving skills,” said Dr. Isidore Rudnick, CPS’ Fine Arts curriculum manager. “This grant will help

Dater High expand its music program.” CPS has received other CMAF grants, including last year’s award to Roselawn Condon School for $10,000 to grow the school’s elementary music program with sheet music, and instruments such as xylophones and hand drums. CMAF is working with the Music Resource Center Cincinnati to provide instruments such as guitars, basses, drums and keyboards plus programming to Hughes and Aiken high schools. Across the nation, CMAF has donated $20 million since 2011 to music education in schools. Frances Russ, Cincinnati Public Schools

Facing eviction? Cincinnati wants to help keep you at home Sharon Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

“Requesting tenant to leave the premises.” Those six words bring dread to more than 200 Hamilton County families every week who find eviction notices with those words emblazoned at the top on their door. For the most part, the families have fallen behind on their rent. Cincinnati City Councilman Greg Landsman said he’s making it his mission to keep more families in their homes so he and Councilwoman Tamaya Dennard championed the creation of an eviction prevention fund, which council approved Wednesday, Jan. 9. The program launches with $403,000, $167,000 of which will flow to the West End since the money comes from the city’s sale of Lower Price Hill land to Tri-State Wholesale, which is moving to make way for the FC Cincinnati stadium in the West End. Under the eviction program, money will be given to help people who fall behind in rent after suffering a crisis. The idea is bridge the shortfall, not push off inevitable eviction. Success will be monitored by looking at how many people stay in their homes. “With almost half a million dollars, we’re talking about helping thousands of families,” Landsman said. “It’s so much less expensive than trying to help sort things out with a family after they’ve been evicted.” He said it’s less expensive to help people stay in their homes than to help after they’re kicked out. A University of Cincinnati study shows: ❚ Nearly half of Hamilton County residences are renter-occupied. From 2014

Sample eviction form SAMPLE EVICTION FORM

to 2017, an average of 12,439 residential evictions each year were ﬁled in Hamil-

ton County. ❚ People facing evictions do not have

the right to a public defender, so if a person can’t afford a lawyer, fighting eviction can mean he or she goes to court with a landlord who does have one. ❚ There are thousands of landlords in Hamilton County, but a few of them account for a bulk of the evictions. The top 10 eviction-filing landlords consistently represent about 20 percent of all evictions in the county. Council voted 6-1 for the program, with Councilwoman Amy Murray the lone no vote. Vice Mayor Christopher Smitherman and Councilman Wendell Young were excused. “If we’re serious about lifting people up, helping people lift themselves out of poverty, we have to be serious about housing,” Dennard said. Murray explained with a looming $19 million deficit, she doesn’t believe it’s the time to create a new program. For the study, author Elaina JohnsWolfe examined data from 2014-2017 in partnership with Housing Opportunities Made Equal Inc. and the Legal Aid Society through the Cincinnati Project at the University of Cincinnati. Landsman, who before he won a council seat in 2017, worked to bring PreSchool Promise to Cincinnati, a program that gives city children two years of quality preschool for children who need it the most. Over and over, he said he heard stories of who housing instability was one of the biggest barriers to early quality education. The program comes on the tails of council’s creation of affordable housing trust fund, an initiative led by Councilman David Mann. This year, council pledged to find the money to begin dedicated work on the issue, though council members have long talked about its importance.

AAA honors local police AAA recently honored 16 police departments throughout the Greater Cincinnati area at its annual AAA Traffic Safety Awards program for their exemplary efforts to address issues such as impaired and distracted driving as well as pedestrian safety in the community. The awards were presented during a special ceremony at the Metropolitan Club in Covington, Kentucky. Honorees were selected through an application process for the awards based on levels of traffic safety excellence. “The work that our law enforcement partner agencies do each day to keep our roads and communities safer is outstanding,” said Tom Wiedemann, president and CEO of AAA. “It is a great privilege to honor these officers as they work tirelessly to address serious threats to traffic safety.” Paul Hartinger, retired chief of police for the city of Blue Ash spoke about the importance of partnerships between law enforcement agencies and traffic safety organizations to reduce road fatalities and injuries as new automotive technologies are being developed. “Our local law enforcement agencies are proven leaders and servants to their communities” said Hartinger. “They an-

swer a higher calling by going above and beyond to find innovative solutions to traffic safety problems on our roadways. As new automotive technology outpaces our learning curves and creates its own dangers, including misuse and overreliance that could lead to deadly crashes or other dangers, we as law enforcement agencies must continue to advocate and partner with organizations such as AAA to educate and engage the community on traffic safety.” AAA Traffic Safety Awards were presented in three categories – Platinum, Gold, and Silver, to the following jurisdictions: ❚ Platinum - Miami Township, Villa Hills, Mariemont, Pierce Township, Deer Park, Blue Ash, Wyoming, Springdale, Reading, Sharonville. ❚ Gold - Colerain Township, Loveland, Cincinnati, Woodlawn, Montgomery. ❚ Silver - Norwood. AAA partners with community organizations and police departments to encourage motorist and pedestrian traffic safety. For more information, visit AAA.com/outreach. Jenifer Moore

it will be the third sport for which Cincinnati hosts a . professional team. And having a stadium in the urban core is “exciting,” he said. Jeff Berding, the club’s president, sat in the front row and was happy with the outcome. “Our outreach and close work with the city administration over the past six months has made the project even better,” Berding said. “We look forward to ongoing work with the city and community to finalize the development plan and see the project rise out of the ground this spring.” During the meeting, issues were raised about both the county-funded parking garage - which remains in flux and the Cincinnati Ballet, which sits on land owned by the team and has a lease for a parking lot that is slated for demolition. No questions were asked about what the stadium would ultimately look like, although concerns have been raised about the ultra-modern design and how it fits into the historic neighborhood. Driehaus said another meeting will be scheduled to specifically discuss design and parking. But that won’t happen until Hamilton County Commissioners make a decision about parking. A committee of city officials involved with building and permitting, vetted the plains prior to the meeting, offering 10 pages of needed changes. The team agreed to do most of what the city, but raised issues related to water sources for sprinklers, the amount of earth cutting and fill related to building and where team-funded improvements to Ezzard Charles Drive would stop. Planning Commission members Vice Mayor Christopher Smitherman, whose brother is doing construction work on the stadium, and Anne Sesler, who in her day job serves as a consultant to the team, recused themselves

due to conﬂicts of interest. That led to a 5-0 approval. Among the things planning commission looked at: ❚ Height: The stadium itself will not be taller than 110 feet above the playing ﬁeld, with no more than 26,500 seats. To understand how tall a 110-foot building is, the stadium will be a couple feet shorter than the seven-story former Alms and Doepke department building at the northeast corner of Central Parkway and Main Street in Over-theRhine. ❚ Impact on its neighbors: Three properties on Wade Street are roughly 10 feet away and the Jehovah Witness Kingdom Hall on John Street is very

near the stadium, but both meet buffer requirements. ❚ Related development: Plans include two mixed-use projects, one at the corner of Wade Street and Central Parkway and another on Central Parkway itself. The developments, which would not be taller than six stories, could include a hotel, bars and a food market. No developers or tenants have been announced, but FC Cincinnati officials wanted the planning commission to see the full scope of the stadium plan. “Obviously there will be an impact on the surrounding neighborhoods, but efforts are being made to minimize light, noise and traffic concerns,” said

Senior City Planner James Weaver during the meeting. City oﬃcials have been vetting the plan since Nov. 26, with a recognition that stadium plan calls for it to be ready for the 2021 season, which begins in March of that year. “Professional sports stadiums don’t really ﬁt into traditional zoning districts. This is needed (now) so it can be ready,” Weaver said. The team could face penalties for soccer is the stadium is not done in time. FC Cincinnati is building a $250 million stadium, with city taxpayers kicking in an additional $33.9 million for infrastructure needs such as streets and other improvements.

Annual Cub Scout Charity Carnival set for Jan. 25 It’s that time of year again. Our Lady of Victory (OLV) Cub Scouts in OLV Pack 909 are presenting their annual Charity Carnival. The event is designed to teach Cub Scouts that they can provide community service and raise funds for charity through an evening of fun. The 22nd annual Charity Carnival will take place Friday, Jan. 25 ,from 6:30-9 p.m. in the OLV Convocation Center Main Hall at 810 Neeb Road. There will be children’s games, raﬄes, face painting, cake walk, and refreshments, including pizza, popcorn, and Kona Ice. The children’s games (like ring toss, candy grab, tictac-toe, bean bag toss, etc.) are run by the boys in Cub Scout Pack 909 (with parental supervision). Delhi area and other businesses have donated items for several prize baskets that will be raﬄed, including the major award. We will have tickets to the Newport Aquarium, an autographed football from the Cincinnati Bengals and much more. This carnival has raised funds to help local families in times of need for many years. Proceeds have been used to provide Christmas presents for children in a family where both parents had lost their jobs, purchased major appliances, subsidized the purchase of mattresses and bedding for local families, and paid for medical expenses for others. Carnival proceeds are also used to help cover the cost of service projects performed by the pack, such as events at Ronald McDonald House. None of the proceeds from the Charity Carnival are used for operations of the Cub Scout pack.

Bring bowls of winning chili to Super Bowl table Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Is it too early to start thinking about that super bowl party? Not if Tom Feie’s chili is on the menu. Tom, an Eastside resident, shared his recipe that won ﬁrst place in a corporate chili contest three years running. Yes, the chili takes a bit of time to assemble, but once it starts cooking, re-

quires little attention. Serve some fire crackers on the side. They stoke up the heat quotient with red pepper flakes. A word of advice: do not leave fire crackers out uncovered. Why? Every time you pass them you’ll be tempted to eat “just 1 more.” This is experience talking. Addictive is the buzzword here. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator and author. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com. Email her at rita@com munitypress.com with “Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line.

Tom Feie’s triple award winning chili This is one recipe worth spending time on. Ingredients 11⁄2 pounds ground beef 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 pounds chuck roast, trimmed and cut into 1⁄2” cubes 2 oz. chili powder 1 tablespoon cumin powder 3 bay leaves 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1-2 teaspoons black pepper 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes ⁄2 teaspoon each: oregano, thyme and paprika

⁄4 cup fresh parsley, minced

2 large onions, diced 2 ribs celery, diced

Fire crackers

1 teaspoon beef bouillon

All I had were Ritz regular crackers. Yummy, even though they were a bit salty. Feel free to use salt free crackers. And you decide how much heat you want.

2 cans stewed tomatoes 24 oz. spicy V-8 juice 1 cup pepperoncini peppers, diced

Ingredients

4 oz. pepperoncini juice

48-60 crackers, either salt free saltines, regular saltines or Ritz round crackers

⁄2 cup white vinegar

1 tablespoon Tabasco

⁄4 cup oil

⁄4 cup ketchup

1 pkg., 1 oz. dry ranch dressing salad mix 1-2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes (I used 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon) Instructions Spray 2 cookie sheets. Preheat oven to 325. Whisk oil, salad mix and pepper flakes together. Either lay out the crackers in a single layer on the cookie sheets and brush with oil mixture on top of each, or place crackers in a large bowl, pour oil mixture over and mix gently to coat crackers on both sides. Then place in single layer on cookie

⁄4 cup barbecue sauce

2 cloves garlic, minced

These easy kicked-up crackers make a great snack. RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Instructions Brown ground beef in large pot, remove and drain. Add oil and brown chuck roast and remove roast. Add herbs and spices to oil and cook over low heat, 2-4 minutes.

sheets.

Add onions and celery and cook over medium heat about 5 minutes.

The crackers with the coating on one side will be a bit milder. I did both ways and couldn’t decide which was better.

Add remaining ingredients and bring to a low boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 3 hours or until roast is tender.

Bake until coating is absorbed and crackers turn golden, about 5-6 minutes or so. Cool and store at room temperature.

Taste and stir while it cooks and adjust seasonings. Remove bay leaves. Yield: approximately 8 quarts

Viewpoints 2019 changes that will impact retirement planning Simply Money Nathan Bachrach and Amy Wagner Community Press USA TODAY NETWORK

Every week, Simply Money’s Nathan Bachrach and Amy Wagner answer your ﬁnancial questions.Please feel free to send those questions to yourmoney@enquirer.com Dennis and Debra from Western Hills: We recently noticed 401(k) contribution limits will increase for 2019. Any other major retirement changes we need to know about? Answer: You are correct. For 2019, the IRS is raising the combined contribution limit for 401(k)s and Roth 401(k)s to $19,000 if you’re younger than 50 and $25,000 if you’re older. This limit will also apply to 403(b)s, Thrift Savings Plans (TSPs), and most 457 plans. The IRS is also increasing the combined contribution limit for IRAs and

Roth IRAs to $6,000 if you’re younger than 50 and to $7,000 if you’re older. There’s good news, too, if you’re high earners: the income “phase-out” range that determines your eligibility to contribute to a Roth IRA will be higher. Starting in 2019, the modified adjusted gross income (MGAI) of a married couple filing their taxes jointly must be less than $203,000 to contribute to a Roth IRA. If your MAGI is between $193,000 and $203,000, you’ll be able to partially contribute. For single tax filers, your MAGI must be less than $137,000 to contribute fully, with the phase-out threshold starting at $122,000. There are also a few changes coming to Social Security. Current recipients will get their biggest cost of living increase since 2012, something we’re guessing is much-welcomed (the average monthly check will rise by 2.8 percent, which is about $39). The maximum benefit at Full Retirement Age (FRA) will increase to $2,861 per month (up from $2,788). And as for those still paying into Social Security, the maximum amount of earnings subject to FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) taxes will rise to

$132,900. C.T. in Boone County: My wife recently passed away and left me her Roth IRA. What are my options for this account? Answer: As the surviving spouse, you have some flexibility with what to do with that money. If you already have a Roth IRA in your own name, one option is to roll this newly inherited Roth IRA into your Roth IRA (or open up a new Roth IRA in your name). This essentially lets you treat your wife’s money as your own money, but you’ll still need to have held the account for five years and be at least age 591⁄2 to take earnings out tax-free. Note: this option is only available if you’re the sole beneficiary. If there’s an imminent need for the money and you’re younger than 59 1⁄2, you could go two other routes. You can open something called an Inherited Roth IRA in your own name, then postpone taking Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) until the year your wife would have turned 701⁄2 or until December 31 of the year following the year of your wife’s passing, whichever is later. This ap-

proach, known as the ‘life expectancy method,’ lets you spread out distributions and avoid an early withdrawal penalty. Similarly, you could open an Inherited Roth IRA and then withdrawal all the money over a five-year period, known as the five-year method (again, no early withdrawal penalty). You could also take a lump sum distribution of the money, though if your wife didn’t hold the account for at least five years earnings will be taxable. working with a financial advisor who is a fiduciary, meaning he or she will make recommendations based on your best interests.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

The ‘Perfect Christmas Tree’ on Anderson Ferry Road Once again this holiday season, we were overwhelmed by the comments and generosity of family, neighbors, friends and strangers who have let us know how much they enjoy our Christ-

mas decorations. It makes all the time and energy it takes to make it look nice, worthwhile. We will continue this tradition, for as long as we are able, we are both 72, and

hope we can continue this tradition for many more years. By the way, “The Perfect Christmas Tree” is not done with a net of lights but is done with strands of lights wrapped

carefully around the tree. Happy new year to all, and to all a good year. Barb and Jerry Shively Delhi Township

Washington Spirit takes Oak Hills grad Feist 17th in the NWSL 2019 draft Melanie Laughman Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Washington Spirit picked up another Cincinnati soccer talent when it chose Oak Hills graduate and Wake Forest University senior midﬁelder Bayley Feist with the No. 17 pick in the second round of the National Women’s Soccer League 2019 draft. The Spirit already boast U.S Women’s National Team player and Cincinnati native Rose Lavelle. She played high school and club soccer for Mount Notre Dame and Cincinnati United Premier respectively. Lavelle was acquired by the Spirit after her ﬁrst team, the

Boston Breakers, folded. At Wake Forest, Feist finished her career with 22 goals, tied for 10th most in the program. Five of them were game-winning goals. She also finished with 10 assists, to bring her point total to 54, and took 160 shots on goal (75 on frame). She finished her senior season with a team-high seven goals and four assists, scoring five of her seven goals against top-25 teams. For those efforts, she earned All-ACC second team and United Soccer Coaches All-South Region second team. According to NWSLsoccer.com, the Spirit acquired the 17th pick by trading their 2020 second-round pick and their

2019 31st pick to the Portland Thorns FC. “The move to trade up is an intriguing one, as the Spirit appeared to have addressed their possible shortage at attacking midfield during the World Cup by trading up to draft Jordan DiBiasi earlier today. However, Feist may project as more of a No. 8 and play a linking role in midfield. That’s another crowded position, however, and it remains to be seen how Washington’s roster will shake out,” wrote Jason Anderson of SBnation in a post on the pick. Feist, the daughter of Steve and Sue Feist, was a part of Jon PIckup’s Kings Hammer Academy U17 team that fin-

USA Today All-USA state teams ﬁlled with locals John Snodgrass Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

USA Today recently released its AllUSA state football teams. Among the hundreds of players across all 50 states and the District of Columbia, both Ohio's and Kentucky's teams featured plenty of local prep standouts. In Ohio, the headline was Wyoming junior quarterback Evan Prater. Prater was named the USA Today All-USA Ohio Offensive Player of the Year. The junior helped lead the Cowboys to an undefeated season and the Division IV state championship this past fall. Winton Woods junior running back Miyan Williams joins Prater in the firstteam offensive backfield. Along the line, Anderson senior Zeke Correll (Notre Dame signee) and St. Xavier junior Paris Johnson (Ohio State verbal commit) lead the protection. Correll's teammate, senior Eric Curless, was also named firstteam as a wide receiver. The first-team defense features Walnut Hills senior lineman Jowon Briggs (Virginia signee) and Colerain senior linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. (Miami signee). Lakota West senior defensive back JJ Ross was named to the second-team defense while Mason senior Charlie Sipe was named Ohio's All-USA kicker. Across the river, Covington Catholic's

Students comfort cancer patients at OHC Rhonda Gottmann is an Advanced Practice Provider at OHC (Oncology Hematology Care) who works with cancer patients every day, so it’s only natural that her children, Claire, Nathan and Grace, would be more aware than most people of cancer and how it affects the lives of patients and their families. In fact, they are so knowledgeable, they decided to do something special for patients during the holidays. “I’m so proud of my kids,” said Rhonda, who lives in Green Township. “They decided to assemble care bags with items for patients getting chemotherapy, and they delivered the nags on Dec. 27 to give patients items that help during chemotherapy treatments, and to bring them a little holiday cheer.” Some patients spend 6-8 hours in one day, in one setting, getting their chemotherapy treatments. Simple things like lip balm, lotion, or a puzzle book can make that time a little easier. Even for patients who are there for an hour, the items are helpful and the thought that someone cares can make a big difference in their day. “I am hopeful that my kids’ actions might inspire others to do a good deed or act of kindness, whether that be for a cancer patient or an animal shelter or at a hospital,” Rhonda added. “There are so many opportunities to do something wonderful for others having a hard time.” Claire and Grace attend Roger Bacon High School and Nathan attends La Salle High School. Rhonda works with Dr. Marcia Bowling, a gynecologic oncologist, and the staff at OHC Anderson. Lesia Golden

It all started when a group of Elder alumni who were friends of the Activity Director for Bayley Adult Day (then known as Eldermount), were asked to sing for the members during their Christmas break. That was in 1998, and their annual appearance has since become a favorite holiday tradition. As former students of Dave Allen, Elder’s music director, entertaining comes naturally. This year on Dec. 26, seven Elder alumni, many who now teach or work at Elder, returned for the 20th annual visit to the Adult Day Program to spread their Christmas cheer. But it doesn’t stop there. Many singers returned with their children who, by the way, have inherited their family’s musical talents. The Adult Day members were treated to piano, ukulele, violin and vocal solos as well as Christmas jokes and traditional sing alongs. It was a gift of time, talents and celebrations that, once again, made the day for many Adult Day members. Kathy Baker

Ewing joins Chatfield College financial aid department Chazeray Ewing has joined Chatfield College as a financial aid counselor at the Over-the-Rhine campus. Although Chazeray is new to staff, she is not new to Chatfield or the financial aid department. ”Chazeray has the unique perspective of understanding our financial aid services as both a student and administrator which is very helpful as she works to support our students and staff,” said Robert Elmore, Chief Financial Officer. In her role, Chazeray will offer support and guidance to students as they navigate the enrollment process. With a background in student Chazeray loan collections at a private compaEwing ny, she hopes to inform students before they make unwise financial decisions. “I feel like I can understand the students, especially non-traditional students, because I sat in the same chair not that long ago. I hope to really make a difference, to make sure they receive all the help they need,” she said. Chazeraywill walk across the stage at Chatfield’s spring graduation. She plans to continue her education by earning a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education. Chazeray resides in the west side of Cincinnati. Brianna Houchens, Chatfield College
