Mr. William “Rhett” Sandoval has been training in martial arts for 30 years. He has earned numerous Black Belts and has competed in state and national tournaments in forms, weapons and sparring. In 1995 he was the Grand Champion of Arizona’s Desert Storm tournament. In his most recent competition; he won a silver and bronze medal at the Grappler’s Quest tournament in Hartford, CT. In 2000, William joined the Army, and served as a Light Infantryman with the 1st Infantry Division during Operation Iraqi Freedom; earning his Combat Action Badge (CAB).

September 2015

He received an Honorable Discharge in 2006, and earned a B.S. from the University of Hartford in Health Science in 2010. While attending college, he taught martial arts lessons to a wonderful group of families in Windsor, Connecticut.

Patriot Martial Arts Academy is San Tan Valley’s new premier location for Karate, Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Balintawak Eskrima.

We invite everyone to our Grand Opening on August 12th to showcase our new 1200 sq ft martial arts school located at 40975 N. Ironwood Dr., Unit B101, at the far North corner of the Filiberto’s restaurant.

W e ’ l l n e v e r f o r g e t ! remembering September 11th 9/11 remembrance Quotes On the morning of September 11th, terrorists hijacked four commercial jet planes and attempted to fly them into several U.S. targets. One of the planes, American Airlines Flight 11, crashed into Tower One of

the World Trade Center at 8:50 AM. United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into Tower Two at 9:04 AM. As the world watched Tower Two collapsed to the ground at about 10:00 AM. Unfortunately, this horrible scene was duplicated at 10:30 AM when Tower One crashed to the ground. This terrorist attack brought about the death of approximately 3,000 men, women and children from nations around the world.

America’s Response to the World Trade Center Attack: The people of America banded together in the weeks following the September 11th attacks like few other times in American history. People responded with donations of blood, effort and money.

President George W Bush immediately called for all civilized nations to band together and fight terrorism. The military of the United States mobilized for war in an operation code named Enduring Freedom. The government declared Osama Bin Laden to be the main suspect and sent the military to fight him and his terrorist organization called Al Qaeda in Afghanistan. The military has been able to capture numerous leaders within the terrorist organization but has not been able to capture Bin Laden himself.

A huge controversy arose when President Bush sent troops into Iraq on March 19, 2003 claiming that the country led by Saddam Hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction and aiding Al Qaeda operatives. As time passed and no evidence of those weapons were found in Iraq, many in America were upset by what they felt were unnecessary reasons to get involved in Iraq. Some argued that the Iraq War drew necessary attention away from the war in Afghanistan. story provided by: http://americanhistory.about.com

The following 9/11 remembrance quotes were stated by world leaders and well known icons. These 9/11 remembrance quotes were uttered to help bring america together, and help us to understand the tragedy.

If the culprits are Muslim, they have twisted the teachings of Islam. Whoever performed, or is behind, the terrorist attacks in the United States of America does not represent Islam. God is not behind assassins.

-- Muhummad Ali Freedom itself was attacked this morning by a faceless coward. Freedom will be defended!

-- President George W. Bush, September 11, 2001 We must not descend to the level of those who perpetrated Tuesday’s violence by targeting individuals based on their race, their religion, or their national origin. Such reports of violence and threats are in direct opposition to the very principles and laws of the United States and will not be tolerated.

--John Ashcroft, Attorney General

The following 9/11 remembrance quotes are inspirational. These words were uttered to help people cope with losses.

Not a day passes over the earth but men and women of no note do great deeds, speak great words, and suffer noble sorrows.

-- Charles Reade I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.

-- Leo Buscaglia Whatever it is that I have lost (or must give up) I must grieve. If I do not do my grieving about the old hurts and insults, then, when I am faced with a here and now grief experience, I will end up having to dredge up all that old energy along with the current experience.

-- Elaine Childs-Gowell We never need to forget 9/11. Keeping these 9/11 remembrance quotes near to our hearts is important. We should not allow this fateful day to slip from our memory. In the words of Former President George W. Bush: “These acts shattered steel, but they cannot dent the steel of America’s resolve.” quotes provided www.brainyquote.com

netty Rigg’s grandpa, Ernest McDaniel photographed these amazing 9-11 photos. He went into a deep depression and said he would never sell them. it is our HOnOR to publish these in the EVB Magazine for all to view and not only remember 9-11, to also remember Ernest McDaniel, born Feb 4, 1929 - Sept 17, 2009 Written by the newYork Times: McDaniEL--Ernest (Ernie), of new York City, 80, loving husband of Barbara, father of Sharon gilbertson, brother of nellie Erickson, Lorraine Ortiz and Barbara Lou arnold. Technically gifted, Ernie served in the Coast guard, built KFOg in San Francisco, was a radio disc jockey and 4 time Emmyaway-winning news cameraman at WCBS-TV. Excellent baker and creative graphic artist. Ernie will be remembered always by family and friends.

Ernest McDaniel also photographed this amazing 9-11 aftermath photo!

Netty and Sharon, Thank you so much for allowing EVB to display these photos in our first edition. You both should be truly proud! What a wonderful family accomplishment and how great it was to call him Dad and Grandpa!!

This was from the very first EVBmagazine ever CREATED and we loved displaying it again!

Follow Us On Facebook www.facebook.com/infocussantanvalley infocus Eyecare is a full-service optometry office providing for all vision care needs. Along with offering glasses and contact lenses, we can help in the treatment of allergies, dry eyes, or medical conditions ranging from cataracts to macular degeneration.

Stylish frames such as Calvin Klein, Nine West, Joseph Abboud, Oakley, and others are available. Most vision insurances are accepted.

If you don’t have vision insurance, don’t worry. In most cases, medical insurance can be used to cover the cost of the exam. infocus accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield and Medicare, among others.

The office is now scheduling appointments, with early morning hours and evening appointments available.

This August in The Shops at Copper Basin, Dr. Ketcher will open infocus Eyecare, filling the area’s need for quality, personalized vision care.

His objective is to provide each patient with services at prices comparable to the big box providers. He is pleased to offer the same exceptional care he received as a child to the residents of San Tan Valley.

Undergoing multiple surgeries on his eyes before age four created the desire to provide others with the same quality of care he received.

With that goal in mind, he planned to become an optometrist early on.

“Customer service is a huge priority for me,” Dr. Ketcher said. “I want residents to know they don’t have to go to a large chain to get affordable vision care for their whole family.

Dr. Ketcher completed his undergraduate degree at Brigham Young University, then received his Doctorate from Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, Tenn.

They can come to a nice, familyowned office, expect a positive experience, and not pay an arm and a leg for it.” Providing a staff with 20+ years of experience in the optical industry will only aid in achieving that goal.

The past five years were spent practicing in Mustang, Okla., where Dr. Ketcher owned an optometry office.

Ketcher, his wife and their three children recently relocated near San Tan Valley to be closer to family.

John Ketcher (480) 498-5480 September 2015

Dr. John Ketcher has known since he was a child that he wanted to help people see.

E V E N T S OF THE M O N T H

CALENDAR

07

Observed on the first Monday in September, Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894. Labor Day also symbolizes the end of summer for many Americans, and is celebrated with parties, parades and athletic events.

On September 11, 2001, 19 militants associated with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda hijacked four airliners and carried out suicide attacks against targets in the United States. Two of the planes were flown into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a third plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Often referred to as 9/11, the attacks resulted in extensive death and destruction, triggering major U.S. initiatives to combat terrorism and defining the presidency of George W. Bush. Over 3,000 people were killed during the attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., including more than 400 police officers and firefighters.

A safe, wickless, flamelexs alternative to scented candles and so much more!

A wickless candle is a highly fragrant was bar that is warmed to release fragrance into the air. Because the wax is gently warmed rather than burned, it can hold more fragrance oil than a traditional candle. And because there is no flame, there is no smoke, soot or lead. Scentsy wickless candles are a safe alternative to traditional candles.

You know how some women wake up looking all refreshed and don’t need any makeup?

You know who I’m talking about: those ladies with naturally rosy cheeks and sky-high cheekbones.

You’re probably thinking, “Yeah, Tyra, like you!” Well, guess what? I’m not one of them! I paint my pretty on!

I give myself a TYover EVERY SINGLE DAY. I believe natural beauty is kinda of not fair. But I also believe make up is the great beauty equalizer.

Everyone deserves to look and feel fiercely beautiful!
