GOP supervisor wants Trump immigration official on the jail board By Daniel Berti

Who is John Zadrozny?

Times Staff Writer

Supervisor Yesli Vega has proposed nominating former Trump aide John Zadrozny to the county’s regional jail Yesli Vega board because of his support for the county’s agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, known as 287(g). During the board’s Tuesday, Jan. 14 meeting, Vega, R-Coles, announced her intent to appoint Zadrozny, a Bristow resident, to the jail board. In response, Board Chair Ann Wheeler, D-At Large, said appointments to the jail board would be made by the full board, not individual supervisors.

Zadrozny is acting chief of staff of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and a close ally of controversial Trump senior advisor Stephen Miller. John Zadrozny Zadrozny served as special assistant to President Donald Trump on the White House Domestic Policy Council from 2017 until 2019. He joined the state department in July 2019 and now works under USCIS acting Director Ken Cuccinelli. The White House Domestic Policy Council aided in scaling back refugee admissions to the U.S. to record lows during the first two years of Trump’s presidency. In July 2019, Zadrozny re-

portedly proposed slashing the number of U.S. refugee admissions to zero. In a Jan. 15 email, Vega said Zadrozny was recommended to her by a private citizen as someone who is willing to serve on the jail board and wants to keep the county’s 287(g) agreement in place. But Vega said she was unaware of Zadrozny’s connection to the Trump administration. “While Mr. Zadrozny’s position on 287(g) was made clear to me, I was unaware of his connections to the Trump Administration,” Vega said. “In fact, I had to Google [Stephen] Miller’s name to even know who you were referencing.” See VEGA, page 4

Windows, skylights mulled for county’s oldest high schools By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

It’s an often-heard complaint of Prince William’s older high schools: The buildings have so few windows, they look like prisons. Now, the county school board is considering a $47.8 million plan to let in more natural light. Prince William County Schools Superintendent Steven Walts is proposing that the school board dedicate about $12 million each to Gar-Field, Osbourn Park, Woodbridge and Stonewall Jackson high schools to pay for new and bigger windows. The plan would widen the schools’ existing windows from about 1 foot, 11 inches to about 8 feet. The plan would also add more windows around the perimeters of the buildings. The changes would allow between 20 and 30 classrooms at each of the older schools to receive more natural light. Under a proposal Walts delivered to the school board during its first meeting of the year on Wednesday, Jan. 15, Osbourn Park and Stonewall Jackson could get the new windows first – by 2022 – while Gar-Field and Woodbridge high schools would see the improvements by 2025.

Thousands converge on state Capitol for gun rights Despite armed participants, rally was peaceful By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

RICHMOND -- Thousands of gun rights supporters flocked to Richmond’s Capitol Monday for the Virginia Citizens Defense League’s annual lobby day rally amid fears of white nationalist and extremist violence. The event ended at noon without incident. Capitol Police estimated that 22,000 people came out for the rally. The Capitol Square emptied out by 1:40 p.m. One person, Richmond resident Mikaela Beschler, 21, was arrested and charged with one felony count of wearing a mask in public. It was the only arrest made during the rally, according to Capitol Police. Rally-goers began showing up at the Capitol early Monday morning, flooding the Capitol grounds and side streets. Guns were prohibited inside the Capitol grounds, but many protesters were openly carrying firearms outside the fenced perimeter. The rally featured several speakers, including Philip Van Cleave, president of the VCDL, and Del. Nick Freitas, R-30th, of Culpeper, who took to the Capitol steps at 11 a.m., an hour before lawmakers took to the House and Senate floor. No violence was reported during the event. Lawmakers held meetings as scheduled, with only four House delegates absent from Monday’s session: Del. Lee Carter, D-50th; Del. Kelly Convirs-Fowler, D-21st; Del. Joe Lindsey, D-90th; and Del. Marcia Price, D-95th.

Thousands of gun rights activists flocked to Richmond Monday. Many openly carried firearms outside a fenced perimeter surrounding the Capitol building. The Virginia Senate passed several bills Monday including SB111, a bipartisan effort to allow no-excuse absentee voting in Virginia. It was co-sponsored by Sens. Richard Stuart, R-28th, and Jill Vogel, R-27th. Stuart represents part of Prince William County, while Vogel represents Fauquier. Security was abundant for the rally. State police, Capitol police and local law enforcement officers combined into a joint command, which began monitoring the area over the weekend. In the lead up to the rally, Gov. Ralph Northam (D) declared a state of emergency Thursday amid what he said were credible threats of violence identified by intelligence analysts. A day later, three members of a violent, white nationalist organization with plans to disrupt the rally were arrested in Maryland by the FBI. Another three white nationalist extremists affiliated with the same group were arrested by local police in Floyd County, Georgia, over the weekend; they were also said to be traveling to Richmond for the rally.

Teacher’s union, firefighters back collective bargaining bill By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st, who represents constituents in Prince William and Fauquier counties, is sponsoring a bill to end the ban on collective bargaining for Virginia’s public workers, a proposal that has received the endorsement of several Virginia unions, including those representing teachers and firefighters. Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina are the only three states in the U.S. that bar employees of municipal, county and state government agencies and state colleges and universities from collectively bargaining for workplace improvements. The Virginia Education Association, a union of more than 40,000 teachers and school support professionals, is focusing its efforts on Guzman’s bill this General Assembly session, according to VEA Communications & Public Affairs Director John O’Neil. “We believe Delegate Guzman’s bill will be good for students, good for schools, good for communities,

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/DANIEL BERTI

Prince William County Firefighter Joe Mirabile speaks in favor of the bill Jan. 16. and good for those working in our public schools. It would allow us to negotiate for things like lower class size[s] and resources that help students,” O’Neil said in an email. A coalition of labor unions representing thousands of workers held a Jan. 16 press conference to call for Virginia lawmakers to pass the bill. During the event, a teacher, a firefighter and an engineer discussed how collective bargaining could allow them to better advocate for the communities they serve. See COLLECTIVE, page 4

Monday’s gun rights rally was the culmination of months of gun rights activism that has taken place since Democrats took the majority in both the state Senate and House of Delegates. Many Democratic candidates had promised sweeping gun control legislation, including universal background checks, “red flag” laws and a controversial “assault-style” weapons ban, if elected. Since the Nov. 5 election, gun rights supporters have flooded local board of supervisors and city council meetings across the commonwealth to ask local officials to protest any new gun reforms enacted by the General Assembly. Many localities have since declared themselves “Second Amend-

ment sanctuaries” – a term that Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring (D) said has “no legal effect whatsoever.” Prince William and Fauquier county boards passed resolutions declaring their counties “constitutional counties” in December. The resolutions state that county officials will uphold the Virginia and U.S. Constitutions but make no promises to not enforce new gun laws. Fauquier County’s gun resolution also expressed support for a handful of new gun laws now before the General Assembly. Only one Prince William County supervisor weighed in on the protest. Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, said in a Jan. 15 statement that she was not in agreement with Gov. Ralph Northam’s declared state of emergency on Capitol grounds and supported Virginia citizens “as they make their voices heard in Richmond and across the Commonwealth.” Lawson said in an email Sunday she did not plan on attending the rally. “While I am grateful for the preparations taken by law enforcement and first responders, I am disappointed that our elected governor feels such contempt for the [Second] Amendment that he sees fit to compromise the right entirely,” Lawson said.

ICE agreement

The proposed appointment comes ahead of a potential standoff between supervisors over the selection of new jail board members who will decide whether or not the county will renew its 287(g) agreement before it expires July 1. The purpose of the 287(g) agreement is to identify undocumented people who are charged with crimes and allows the Prince William-Manassas Adult Detention Center to deputize some of its officers as ICE agents to access federal immigration databases and refer inmates to ICE. Prince William and Culpeper counties are the only two localities in Virginia that currently hold 287(g) agreements with ICE. Zadrozny could not be reached for comment. During the Jan. 14 meeting, the board deferred its discussion on the new jail board appointments to a later date. Vega, a former Prince William County Sheriff’s deputy and the county’s first Latina supervisor, is an out-

spoken supporter of the 287(g) agreement. She has said in the past that ending the 287(g) agreement would put the county’s immigrant communities at the “greatest risk of danger.” “Throughout the last campaign, I made public safety and preserving the 287(g) program a priority to help keep our communities safe, particularly for those residing in the same type of immigrant neighborhoods I grew up in, where the criminals subject to the agreement commit the vast majority of their crimes,” Vega said in an email. Newly elected Democratic supervisors, who have a 5-3 majority on the board, have said they will seek to end the agreement. In a December interview with Prince William Times, Supervisor Margaret Angela Franklin, D-Woodbridge, called the agreement a divisive policy that had “no place in our community.” CASA in Action, the Mid-Atlantic region’s largest immigrant rights organization, and the Virginia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union have also called for an end to the program. Newly elected Commonwealth’s

Attorney Amy Ashworth (D), who was working in the commonwealth’s attorney’s special victims’ unit when the county’s ICE agreement went into effect in 2008, said the county’s ICE agreement does not ensure public safety for county residents. “We created an entire class of people, namely immigrants -- some legal, some not legal -- that were afraid to come forward and report crimes, and I knew this because they found their way into my office in the special victims’ unit,” Ashworth said at a September candidates’ forum. Under the board of supervisors’ current rules, supervisors can appoint three at-large citizen members to the jail board. The other seven positions are filled by criminal justice officials, including Ashworth, Prince William County Police Chief Barry Barnard and Sheriff Glen Hill. Hill, a Republican who was elected to a fifth term last November, supports the 287(g) agreement. After Vega announced Zadrozny as her nominee to the jail board during the Jan. 14 meeting, supervisors discussed the process for ap-

pointing jail board members as well as steps that could be taken to change the makeup of its membership. County Attorney Michelle Robl said according to Virginia law, only the county sheriff is mandated to sit on the jail board. “The rest of the appointments are discretionary. The board can certainly change those designations,” Robl said. Whether Prince William retains its 287(g) agreement will likely depend on whom the board of county supervisors appoints to the jail board. Such at-large appointments are typically coordinated with supervisors through the chair’s office, according to county staff. During the meeting, Wheeler said she supports the jail board’s current membership consisting primarily of county criminal justice and law enforcement officials. “Those people know about law enforcement. I really respect the fact that they’re on the board for a reason,” Wheeler said. “We can definitely revisit this at a later time.” Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com

of skylight that uses reflective tubes to carry light from the rooftop into the classrooms. Adding windows and solatubes to all four schools – which Moseley’s proposal called “option B” --- would cost $16.2 million each at Osbourn Park and Stonewall high schools and $20.2 million each at Gar-Field and Woodbridge high schools, for a total cost of $72.8 million for all four schools. The firm also proposed two additional options for Woodbridge and Gar-Field high schools: “option C” would add windows and larger skylights, which would be cheaper than solatubes at $17.4 million per school. Finally, “option D” would entail adding new windows around the perimeter of the buildings, new clerestory windows on the roofs, new and larger skylights, and new, light-filled additions to accommodate collaborative learning. That option was the most expensive, costing about $30.5 million per school. But such changes are not possible at Stonewall Jackson and Osbourn Park because of structural differences in those buildings, Riggs and Durrett said. Walts recommended the board consider “option A” – adding only the new and bigger windows at all four schools – because that would be the only fix the school division could afford to add to its updated capital improvement plan without receiving more funding than is already expected from state and local sources. “I would recommend option D, but the fact remains … that option A is something we can start right away,” Walts told the board. “We can get a [request for proposals] and start, really, immediately.” The school board will make no final decisions on its capital improvement plan until the board approves its final budget for the 2020-21 school year on March 18. Walts noted the daylighting plan was created in response to complaints the school board has been hearing about the county’s older schools from community members and students for years. The four schools – all built between 1972 and 1975 – have the least amount of natural light of any of Prince William’s soon-to-be 13 high schools. Some in the community have lobbied the school board to tear down its older schools and build new ones to provide students with the same educational experience across the county. But considering the cost of the 14th high school is projected to be $154 million, rebuilding the older schools is substantially more expensive.

“I personally have taught over 165 students where I didn’t have enough seats in my classroom for every student to have a desk. As you can imagine, that causes a lot of stress and challenges as we move forward to try to ensure that every student has a healthy and positive learning environment,” said Kelly Walker, a high school teacher from Virginia Beach. Prince William County Firefighter Joe Mirabile, a resident of Prince William County’s Coles District, also spoke in support of the bill. “Firefighters should have the right to bargain for their work conditions, equipment and staffing levels,” Mirabile said. “Firefighters are the subject matter experts in our profession. We should be at the table using that knowledge to be better able to serve the citizens we swore to protect.” Guzman’s bill has received the backing of Virginia Professional Fire Fighters, an association of local unions representing over 8,000 members across the Commonwealth of Virginia. Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd, who represents Prince William and Stafford counties, is also in favor of ending the ban on collective bargaining for public employees. Foy said improving conditions for working families is one of her top priorities. “Virginia is number one for businesses, but we also need to be number one for workers, and the way that we do that is by increasing wages, implementing more worker protections and ensuring that public sector employees have the ability to negotiate for better pay, job protections and safety,” Foy said. Destiny LeVere, communications director of the Virginia AFL-CIO, said in an email that collective bargaining for emergency responders like firefighters would enable the negotiation of for more up-todate equipment, and would mean more individual attention for students in public schools. LeVere also said the state’s collective bargaining ban was originally intended to exclude the African American working class and women from having equal rights in the workplace and is a “vestige of slavery and Jim Crow laws and attitudes.” “Changing this law in Virginia is long overdue and presents the chance to turn the page on the era of discrimination and give all workers equal rights,” LeVere said. The bill, HB582 has not yet been referred to a House committee for consideration. Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@fauquier.com

Courtesy Photos An artist’s rendering shows what Stonewall Jackson High School would look like with more and bigger windows. “And the thing is, these buildings are very strong buildings,” Walts said of the older schools. “They’re not something you want to tear down.” Occoquan School Board Representative Lillie Jessie asked if the school division could develop a timeline for pursuing something past option A. School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef (at large) asked if the school division could increase its borrowing to find more money for additional improvements. John Wallingford, associate superintendent for finance and risk management, said the school division could spend more, since it’s not projected to hit its borrowing limit of 10% of overall revenue. But he cautioned that the money to pay back the debt would further eat into operational funds. The school division currently spends $108.7 million each year in debt payments for new school construction. In an interview after the meeting, Lateef said the school board would like to do more to renovate the older schools but can’t without more funding. “We don’t have the money beyond option A,” Lateef said. “The good news is that the school board has listened to community members who want to renovate these older schools, but it’s about resources. Right now, we can’t afford those [other options].” Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@fauquier.com

Supervisors table gun vote

NEWS

In a surprise move, board abandons effort to endorse gun-safety bills By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

The Prince William County Board of Supervisors will set aside, for now, any further discussion on a proposed resolution urging Virginia lawmakers to support a handful of new laws aimed at preventing gun violence. In an unexpected move Tuesday, Jan. 14, the supervisors voted unanimously to table further debate on a “resolution 10A,” which aimed to “address gun violence prevention in Virginia” by urging state lawmakers to pass gun safety legislation and boost funding for mental health treatment and firearms safety training. The decision came a week after the board’s Jan. 7 meeting, when supervisors delayed a vote on the measure until the evening of Tuesday, Jan. 21. The board made that call after hundreds of gun-rights supporters turned out to the Jan. 7 meeting

amid a snowstorm to voice their opposition to the measure. The resolution was not mentioned at all on the agenda for the Tuesday, Jan. 14, meeting. But Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, interrupted the meeting shortly after its 2 p.m. start time to propose the measure be set aside indefinitely. Angry said the board had already heard from the community on proposed gun-control bills before state lawmakers during two hours-long meetings -- on Dec. 10 and Jan. 7 -- and that the matter belongs with the General Assembly, not county officials. “You know, first let’s understand, we are a constitutional county, not a sanctuary county, and I really feel personal about that, because I don’t think we should ever be a sanctuary for anything,” Angry said while making his motion in reference to the resolution the previous board adopted in December.

“…With that said, I feel very strongly that we really should represent our constituents and allow our constituents to go to Richmond, along with our support of some of those offers of solutions we heard, presenting those forward, and then we see where we go from there.” On Dec. 10, the outgoing board, which had a 6-to-2 Republican majority, passed a resolution declaring Prince William a “constitutional county” at the urging of gun-right supporters. Former board chair Corey Stewart, a Republican, first proposed declaring the county a “Second Amendment sanctuary” but modified his resolution’s language before the vote, which occurred after midnight on Wednesday, Dec. 11. Newly elected Board Chair Ann Wheeler, a Democrat, proposed the 10A resolution for the newly elected board’s first meeting. Wheeler said the resolution would not overturn the previous board’s constitutional

county resolution but was intended to voice the board’s support for some of the proposed new gun regulations under debate in Richmond. Angry noted the Dec. 10 and Jan. 7 meetings were marked by tense moments, including one incident that required police officers to intervene between residents on opposite sides of the issue. Wheeler, D-At Large, also noted the large meetings required extra staff support. “This is a state issue that will be dealt with at the state level,” Wheeler said before the vote. “A lot of county resources go toward the large meetings we have, and I will be supporting Supervisor Angry’s motion.” The motion was seconded by Supervisor Andrea Bailey, D-Potomac, who said: “We are here to serve the people and to be a collective body in serving the people.” Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com

County recognizes 6 Qasim Rashid with human rights awards announces bid for Congress

Staff Reports Six Prince William residents and one organization were recognized for their unique contributions to civil and human rights during a Jan. 18 ceremony celebrating Universal Human Rights Day. The theme of the event was “all human beings are born free & equal.” The 2020 winners included Dr. Renee Chinn; Emmitt and Vera Fletcher; Yukiko Dove; Evelyn BruMar; and Taalibah Hassan; as well as the Old Dominion Chapter of The Links, Incorporated. Dr. Renee Chinn serves the community through several nonprofits, including Women In Community Action. WICA advocates for black women and girls and ensures young women learn the “soft skills” needed for career success. Chinn also provides food items to Fannie Fitzgerald Elementary School and the residents at Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention and has served as the mental health liaison for two middle schools, according to a county press release. Emmitt and Vera Fletcher were “instrumental” in the renaming of Godwin Middle School to George Hampton Middle School in 2016. The couple “galvanized members of fraternities, sororities, and community leaders to speak, and obtained hundreds of names on petitions” to change the school’s name, the release said. Old Dominion Chapter of The Links, Incorporated empowers Minnieville Elementary students and their families through their STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) program to address the achievement gap. The group runs Minnieville Elementary’s first engineering club: Future Eagle Engineers, a junior chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers, the release said.

Evelyn BruMar is described as a “tireless advocate” for the rights of the county’s LGBTIQ+ residents through her work with organizations such as Equality Prince William. BruMar successfully led the effort to petition the board of supervisors to recognize June as LGBTQ+ Pride month and recently established the nonprofit Casa BruMar, whose mission is to “bridge the gap that leaves the LGBTIQ+ community behind when it comes to equity in education, social services and human dignity,” the release said. Taalibah Hassan chairs the grassroots organization Unity in the Community, which works to build cross-cultural understanding and interfaith relationships as well as educate the public about the consequences of discrimination, bullying and hate. Under Hassan’s leadership, Unity in the Community hosted the International Day of Prayer for Peace, an event that included 22 churches, synagogues, mosques, the release said. Hassan chairs Dar al Noor Community Center’s Interfaith committee, where she educates the broader community on Islam by participating in panels such “Faith perspectives on the environment” and “Celebration of Faith,” the release said.

Human rights lawyer and former Democratic candidate for Virginia state Senate Qasim Rashid announced Monday his bid to represent Virginia’s 1st District in the U.S. Congress.

Rep. Rob Wittman, a Republican, has held Qasim Rashid the seat since 2007. Rashid, 37, ran against Virginia state Sen. Richard Stuart, R-28th, in 2019 and lost by 15 points. He will face Vangie Williams in the Democratic primary on June 9. Williams won the 2018 Democratic nomination for the seat but was defeated by Wittman in the general election by 10 points. In a statement released Monday announcing his candidacy, Rashid said his campaign will not be funded by corporations or super PACs. During his 2019 state Senate campaign, Rashid raised more money from small donors than any other state Senate candidate in Virginia. “The First District of Virginia has been inadequately served by a corporate-funded congressman for too long. It’s time to elect a representative that will serve the district by putting working families, veterans, federal employees, and environmental protection first,” Rashid said. Rashid is a Muslim American and immigrated from Pakistan as a child with his family to escape religious persecution. He lives in Stafford County with his wife and three children.

Bill allowing localities to ban guns in public buildings, parks advances By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

Virginia localities don’t currently have the authority to ban firearms from public buildings, parks or permitted events, but a bill sponsored by Sen. Scott Surovell and approved by a state Senate last week could change that. The state Senate voted 21-19 along party lines Thursday, Jan. 16, to approve the measure. It will now go to the House of Delegates in the coming weeks. The bill would allow localities to adopt ordinances banning firearms in public buildings, public parks and permitted events in their jurisdictions. For permitted events, localities could pass an ordinance banning firearms from public streets, alleys and sidewalks in the area of the events. Speaking during a Senate Judiciary Committee meeting, Surovell, D-36th, said the bill doesn’t require gun-free zones in these areas. It just provides localities the option. Surovell represents constituents in Prince William, Fairfax and Stafford counties. “This bill takes into account the differences within our commonwealth. It doesn’t require any locality to do anything. It simply gives the localities the choice to do something,” Surovell said. In September, Surovell wrote a

The state Senate also approved two additional gun bills – a watered down universal background check bill and a “one-handgun-a-month” bill. The latter, SB 69, would prohibit anyone who is not a licensed firearms dealer from purchasing more than one handgun within a 30-day period, making the offense a Class 1 misdemeanor. The bill exempts those with valid Virginia concealed handgun permits and those replacing a lost or stolen handgun, as well as law enforcement agencies, state and local correctional facilities; private security companies; and those with special circumstances with a background check from Virginia State Police. The bill would also exempt purchases made during a private sale for a personal collection of rare or historical items. Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com

RICHMOND -- Advocates dressed in black stood at the base of the Virginia Civil Rights Memorial last week to voice their support for legalizing marijuana, repeating a variation of “the time is now” in each of their statements. Participants dressed in black “to stand in solidarity with the black and brown bodies that have been criminalized for decades here in the commonwealth,” said Chelsea Higgs Wise, co-founder of Marijuana Justice, a Virginia-based nonprofit organization that aims to educate people on the history of cannabis criminalization in the U.S. The American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia, along with Marijuana Justice and RISE for Youth, a campaign committed to promoting alternatives to youth incarceration, held a press conference promoting House Bill 1507, patroned by Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd, who represents Prince William and Stafford counties. “Lean on your legislators and make sure that they understand the effort to legalize marijuana is here and we’re bringing it to your front door because now is the time to fully have criminal justice reform in a meaningful way,” Foy said. In 2018, Capital News Ser-

Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd, speaks in support of her bill, HB 1507, which would legalize marijuana in Virginia. vice reported that arrests for marijuana possession that year were at their highest level in at least two decades, with nearly 29,000 arrests. Also, while the Virginia State Police arrested more white people (25,306) for drug violations in 2018 than African Americans (20,712), African Americans, who make up only 19% of Virginia’s population, comprised nearly half of all marijuana convictions, according to a CNS analysis of court records. Nine other bills have been introduced this session relating to marijuana possession. Some propose legalization, while others propose decriminalization. Although the terms are used interchangeably at times, the two carry dramatically different meanings. The ACLU says decriminalizing marijuana to be a civil rather than criminal offense creates a number of issues, including that that those who cannot afford a lawyer would remain at a disadvantage. The group instead wants to see a full repeal of the prohibition on marijuana.

Prince William schools will add two electric school buses in 2020 Staff Reports Dominion Energy plans to bring 50 electric school buses to 16 localities within its service area in 2020, including two Prince William County. All 50 buses are expected to be deployed by the end of the year. School districts will be responsible for selecting the bus routes, including which schools the buses will service. This is just the first step in a larger initiative by Dominion Energy to replace diesel-powered buses with electric buses in the commonwealth. With state approval, the company is seeking to expand the program to bring 1,000 electric school buses online by 2025, making it the largest electric school bus deployment in the

nation, according to a press release. Under the program, Dominion Energy will offset the additional costs of an electric school bus, including charging infrastructure, above the standard cost for a diesel bus, meaning school districts will pay the same cost for an electric school bus, according to Dominion spokeswoman Peggy Fox. Costs for the first phase of 50 buses will be covered by Dominion Energy’s existing base rate, which means no change in prices paid by customers. Full program implementation by 2025 is expected to cost less than $1.40 per month for the average customer, Fox said. “We are excited to move forward with our commitment to bringing the benefits of electric school buses to

Dominion Energy is on track to deploy 50 electric school buses this year. the customers and communities we serve,” said Dominion Energy Chairman, President and CEO Thomas F. Farrell II. “This is an innovative, sustainable solution that will help the environment, protect children’s health, make the electric grid stronger, and free up money for our schools.” The company hopes to expand the program by 300 buses per year for

the next five years but will need policy support, the release said.. Sen. Louise Lucas, D-18th, has introduced SB 988 to help push the company into phase two of the project. The bill would allow Dominion Energy to implement electric school bus projects and the associated charging and other infrastructure in Virginia school districts.

Woodbridge H.S. teacher wins technology award Staff Reports

Katie Fielding, Woodbridge Senior High School’s instructional technology coach, has been named the Virginia Society for Technology in Education coach of the year. Every year, VSTE recognizes three outstanding technology-focused educators for their dedication as digital educators. As a teacher with more than 15 years in the classroom, Fielding said she enjoys sharing instruction-

al practices with students and colleagues, helping them to navigate the ever-changing world of technology. Fielding works with her fellow instructional technology coaches to improve digital instruction in the classroom and digital equity for all students at Woodbridge Senior High School, especially those students who need to use assistive devices, the release said. Last year, Fielding participated in the Google Innovator Academy, where her project focused on im-

proving homebound instruction so those students “feel a better connection with their teachers and fellow classmates,” the release said. “It was an honor to be nominated by my Woodbridge colleagues, and nice to have been selected among my coaching peers at VSTE. I am fortunate to enjoy my job. I have great support from my administrators to get into the classrooms and help teachers and students use technology in innovative ways,” Fielding said in the release.

Police: Dumfries man dies after pedestrian crash in Triangle A 23-year-old Dumfries man died Sunday, Jan. 19 from injuries he sustained when he was struck by a pickup truck in Triangle four days earlier, according to police. The victim, Giovanni Crystalgo Caballeros, 23, of Dumfries, was walking along U.S. 1 at about 6 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 15, when he was struck by the pickup near Quantico Gateway Drive in Triangle, Perok said in a news release. The investigation revealed that the driver of a 2010 Explorer Sport-Trac was traveling north on U.S. 1, just past the intersection with Quantico Gateway Drive, when the vehicle struck the

victim, the news release said. The victim “was walking within the roadway on [U.S. 1] and not the designated sidewalk available,” the release said. The striking vehicle remained on scene and the driver, a 54-yearold Manassas man, was not injured. Speed, alcohol or drug use were not factors in the collision, the release said.

Teen charged in crash resulting in school cafeteria worker’s death A teenage girl was charged with reckless driving last week in connection with an October crash that claimed the life of a Woodbridge woman who worked in the cafeteria

at Graham Park Middle School. Meanwhile, the search for a second vehicle that was involved in the crash but fled the scene continues, 1st Sgt. Jonathan Perok said Friday, Jan. 17. Prince William County police have been investigating since Oct. 11 an early morning crash on the 3600 block of Graham Park Road in Triangle that led to the death of Zorka Vesovic, 67. Vesovic was remembered for knowing Graham Park students’ names and for her delicious cinnamon rolls, according to news reports following the accident. Vesovic was crossing Graham Park Road when she was struck by a vehicle at 6:53 a.m. on Friday, Oct.

11, according to previous news reports. In October, police said their investigation determined Vesovic was struck by two vehicles in the incident. The teenage driver, whose name was not released, was driving a 2010 Hyundai Sonata. The second vehicle involved in the crash is described as a “dark colored, newer model Toyota Camry that may have damage to the under carriage,” Perok said in a news release issued Friday, Jan. 17. Anyone with information regarding the crash is asked to contact the Prince William County Police Department tipline at 703-792-7000 or submit a web tip to: www.pwcgov. org/policetip.

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Prince William Times | January 22, 2020

King’s words and deeds still inspire The late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday rolls around every year while we are still crawling out of our holiday stupor. Community groups, including the Prince William County Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority, the Afro-American Historical Association in Fauquier County and others host powerful and meaningful remembrances each year, but do we really hear the lessons they offer? Perhaps we hear the words of tribute, listen to the speeches … then move on toward Valentine’s Day. The Afro-American Historical Association in The Plains offered something different this year. On Saturday, the AAHA presented the film “In Remembrance of Martin.” For those of us who were too young to experience the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s and King’s part in it, the film was an important reminder of the revolutionary nature of that decade. We learned in high school about King’s “I have a dream” speech, but were not witnesses to the violence, the inhumanity that was dealt to black Americans at that time – or the upheaval of King’s leadership. The film showed, in stark black and white images of the time, African-Americans facing dehumanizing violence. They were trampled by policemen on horses, taunted with Confederate flags, beaten with billy clubs, attacked with tear

gas and fire hoses. Hospitals were filled with the victims of violence. Pictures of men in the white hoods of the Ku Klux Klan dominated the screen. Bolstered by King’s words and deeds, men, women and children faced these indignities with peaceful protests and demonstrations of solidarity. King told them and us, “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” In the AAHA presentation, actor Dick Gregory said, “Martin was always talking about love. Everybody thought he was crazy. I thought he was crazy. But he wasn’t just talking about love, he was talking

about the salvation of the whole planet.” After Rosa Parks refused to move to the back of the bus in 1956, King organized the Montgomery bus boycott. “For 381 days, no negroes rode in buses,” the film reminded us. For more than a year, the black community walked everywhere in silent protest. The Supreme Court ruled -- more than a year after Rosa Parks made her stand -- that segregation on public transportation was invalid. Once again, we were reminded of the power of peaceful protest. Coretta Scott King, King’s wife and herself a leader of the Civil Rights movement, quoted her husband at

his funeral: “That old law about ‘an eye for an eye’ leaves everybody blind. The time is always right to do the right thing.” King made a lot of inspiring speeches, but his strength was more than his oratory. He endured a disinformation campaign and was dragged off to jail for his beliefs. And he stood up day after day -- to lead, to comfort, to inspire. He told us, “Love is the only force capable of turning an enemy into a friend.” In encouraging his followers to bravery, he reminded them that Christians don’t have to be afraid of death. He had been stabbed in the chest as a young man. “I am reminded of death every morning while I brush my teeth,” he said. In a speech on April 3, 1968, he said, “I may not get to the promised land with you, but as a people, we will get to the promised land.” He was shot and killed the next day, April 4, at the age of 39. We again live in frightening times. Signs of social upheaval are everywhere, and violence always seems to be bubbling just beneath the surface. King’s lessons are there for us still: “Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable… Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering and struggle -- the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.”

Letters to the Editor

Education funding is critical for all We are excited to see that Governor Northam has placed education funding among the top priorities in his budget submitted to the General Assembly. Virginia is the number one state for business, and we believe that it should be number one for education as well. The greatest opportunity for sustaining economic prosperity, ensuring a strong workforce with future-ready skills, and empowering individual success

is through an outstanding and equitable Pre-K to 12 education for all. The foundation of a great education is a great teacher. In order to recruit and retain the best educators, competitive compensation is critical. We are pleased to see the governor propose a teacher salary increase in addition to last year’s, and it is our hope that the General Assembly will find a means to add funding for teachers in the first year

of the biennium budget. While state and local authorities work in partnership to ensure a quality education for students in the commonwealth, past changes to Virginia’s funding for public education widened the gap between the true local-level cost of providing programs and services and the amount reimbursed by the state. We are optimistic that our elected officials both in the General Assem-

NRA’s take on gun bills disappoints As a former member of the NRA, I’m so disappointed to see what it has become. I joined nearly 60 years ago to learn gun safety in order to go hunting with friends. Now the organization that I once belonged to has been transformed and abandoned responsibility for rabble rousing. Instead of promoting best practices such as wearing blaze orange while hunting, they have lately been spreading crazy conspiracy theories. The new priority of selling product has replaced wise handling of what can be dangerous weapons when they fall into the wrong hands. Organizing around a cause may make it easier to grow membership, but focusing on solving

problems would better serve the interests of legitimate gun owners and the community at large. NRA leaders owe it to their supporters to forsake short-term gains in favor of long-term solutions. To do that requires a major change of tone in messaging. The Second Amendment was passed for good reasons. In order to protect it we must not let it be abused for ulterior motives.

GLAD THEY HAVE CHAD COMING OFF THE BENCH Another group of star Patriot guards includes Watson, Blue, Nelson By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

The Patriot Pioneers’ changing of the guard has been an impressive display. It lacks the pomp and circumstance, bearskin caps and rifles of Buckingham Palace, but instead features slashing layups, spot-on 3-point shooting and defensive deflections on the basketball court. The Pioneers lost all five of their starters following a 22-3 season in 2018-19, including an all-state guard in Devon Parrish and an all-region guard in Hagen Vandiver. But Patriot replaced them with so many talented guards that there’s been no dropoff. A JV player last year, Chad Watson came off the bench Friday to score 18 points as the Pioneers won their sixth consecutive game by beating host Battlefield 60-51. “The biggest thing for us is our player development,” Pioneers coach Sherman Rivers said. “Guys are working in the gym and getting better.

“That’s our identity,” Rivers said. “Sometimes offensively we can look a little difficult to watch – the way we turn it over and the way we miss shots – but if we continue to play defensively it doesn’t really matter what happens on the offensive end.” The Pioneers finished with nine steals Friday and scored off of most of them. “We’re causing havoc everywhere so we don’t have to work as hard for buckets,” Watson said.

Let’s eat

Six restaurants offer specials during Experience Old Town Warrenton’s winter restaurant week By Anita L. Sherman Community Editor

It’s a new year and our January calendars are filled with promises – lose weight, save more, love more, give more and the lists go on. While “eat more” may not be a goal, “eat better” could be. Warrenton has its share of fine eateries – many of them participating in the 2020 Winter Restaurant Week, which begins Monday, Jan. 27. Sponsored by Experience Old Town Warrenton, it’s a chance to eat well and support your local eating establishments – something that is well worth doing as we begin a new year.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA NATURAL GAS, INC., FOR APPROVAL AND CERTIFICATION OF NATURAL GAS FACILITIES (THE HEADER IMPROVEMENT PROJECT), AND FOR APPROVAL OF RATE SCHEDULES AND TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION SERVICE CASE NO. PUR-2019-00207

On December 6, 2019, Virginia Natural Gas, Inc. (“VNG” or “Company”), filed an application (“Application”) with the Virginia State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) for approval and certification of natural gas facilities pursuant to the Utility Facilities Act, §§ 56-265.1 et seq. and 56-265.2 of the Code of Virginia (“Code”). Through its Application and pursuant to Rule 80 A of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (“Rules of Practice”) 20 VAC 5-20-80 A, VNG also seeks approval to implement Rate Schedules HP-TRFT, HP-FT, HP-LFT, and HP-IT and Terms and Conditions for Pipeline Transportation Service (“Terms and Conditions”). VNG seeks approval and certification as requested to provide new service to an independent power producer, C4GT, LLC (“C4GT”), for a facility to be located in Charles City County, Virginia, to provide incremental transportation capacity to existing customers, and to maintain reliable service in the area. Specifically, VNG seeks to: (1) Transco Interconnect Pipeline: construct approximately 6.2 miles of 30-inch diameter steel pipeline in new right-of-way (“ROW”) extending north from the Company’s existing natural gas transmission system located near Quantico, Virginia and interconnecting with the Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line (“Transco”) via an interconnect station in Catlett, Virginia. (2) Transco Interconnect Compressor Station: construct a compressor station in Prince William County, Virginia. (3) Quantico Parallel Pipe: construct approximately 3.3 miles of 30-inch diameter steel pipeline in new ROW that runs parallel and adjacent to the Company’s existing Joint Use Pipeline located in Fauquier County, Virginia. (4) Mechanicsville Parallel Pipe: construct approximately 14.6 miles of 30-inch diameter steel pipeline in new ROW that runs parallel and adjacent to the Company’s existing VNG Lateral Pipeline (“VNG Lateral”) in the Counties of Hanover, New Kent, and Charles City, Virginia. (5) Ladysmith Compressor Station Expansion: construct a compressor station by expanding the existing footprint of the existing Ladysmith Compressor Station in Caroline County, Virginia. (6) Gidley Compressor Station: construct a compressor station in the existing Gidley Gate Metering and Regulation Station located in the City of Chesapeake, Virginia.

The Transco Interconnect Pipeline, Transco Interconnect Compressor Station, Quantico Parallel Pipe, Mechanicsville Parallel Pipe, Ladysmith Compressor Station Expansion, and Gidley Compressor Station are referred to collectively as the “Header Improvement Project” or “Project.”

VNG identified a preferred route for the construction of the 6.2-mile Transco Interconnect Pipeline, primarily collocated with an existing electric and natural gas transmission ROW and also identified routes for the Quantico Parallel Pipe and Mechanicsville Parallel Pipe along the existing Joint Use Pipeline and VNG Lateral ROWs. However, because existing ROW is inadequate to construct the proposed Project, VNG is seeking new permanent ROWs, as well as temporary ROWs during construction. Route descriptions are provided below.

VNG’s desired in-service date for the Project is December 31, 2022. VNG’s current construction schedule requires 30 months for survey, design, permitting, obtaining easements and materials, construction, clearing, testing and commissioning.

The total estimated cost for the proposed Project is approximately $345.9 million, which includes approximately $202.4 million in pipeline-related costs and approximately $143.5 million in compressor station-related costs (2019 dollars). VNG asserts that approximately 94% of the capital cost of the Project will be attributable to C4GT, Columbia Gas of Virginia (“CVA”), and Virginia Power Services Energy (“VPSE”). The remaining 6% of costs will be attributable to VNG’s customers through base rates.

Specifically, VNG seeks to implement four new rate schedules to recover these costs: Rate Schedules HP-TRFT, HP-FT, HP-LFT, and HP-IT. VNG seeks to offer new services that would be made possible by the Project through the proposed schedules. VNG also proposes Terms and Conditions related thereto. All customers (C4GT, VPSE, and CVA) acknowledged that the final costs associated with the Project are unlikely to be known at the date service commences, so VNG will commence billing on an estimated rate basis, subject to true-up when final costs and improved estimates of actual operating expenses for the Project are known and available. HP-IT would be provided at the incremental operating cost associated with providing the service. A forward-looking estimated operating expense would be submitted to the Commission prior to the commencement of service of the Project. All customers taking service under Rate Schedules HP-TRFT, HP-FT, or HP-LFT would be eligible for interruptible service under this rate schedule. Proposed Pipeline Route Descriptions

Transco Interconnect Pipeline

For this approximately 6.2-mile route, the natural gas pipeline corridor will begin at the existing VNG Quantico Compressor Station and run north in, or adjacent to, an existing electric transmission line ROW for the first 5,000 linear feet where the corridor crosses into Prince William County, Virginia. It continues north in, or adjacent to, the existing electric transmission line ROW for another 11,000 linear feet where it intersects Warrenton Road (Route 606). From there, it continues northward almost in its entirety in the existing electric transmission line ROW until crossing the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks. Then it turns west and then northwest as it crosses Nokesville Road and ends at the proposed tie-in point with the Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC pipeline. Transco Interconnect Compressor Station

Potential Site 1 for the Transco Interconnect Compressor Station is located at 13615 Nokesville Road in Nokesville, Virginia, which is in Prince William County. VNG will require approximately 25 acres for the footprint of the station and associated construction laydown and workspace areas and will acquire additional area reserved to provide a buffer from neighboring properties. The property is currently undeveloped and adjacent to the proposed Transco Interconnect Pipeline on the west side of the proposed alignment and is just south of Route 28 and east of Center Street. Potential Site 2 for the Transco Interconnect Compressor Station is located at 14000 Nokesville Road in Nokesville, Virginia, which is in Prince William County. VNG will require approximately 25 acres for the footprint of the station and associated construction laydown and workspace areas and will acquire additional area reserved to provide a buffer from neighboring properties. The site is bounded by Route 28 on the south, to the west by Fauquier Drive and to the north by Reid Lane. The property is currently undeveloped. Quantico Parallel Pipe

For this approximately 3.3-mile route, which parallels VNG’s existing Joint Use Pipeline corridor, the natural gas pipeline corridor will begin at the tie-in point at the existing regulator station along Laws Ford Road. From this point, the corridor runs south, crossing Laws Ford Road and running alongside existing power lines for approximately 8,000 feet through agricultural land. Then the alignment crosses Sowego Road and continues south along the eastern side of the power lines for approximately 5,500 feet where it reaches Courthouse Road. Finally, the corridor continues south past Courthouse Road for approximately 4,000 feet where it terminates. Mechanicsville Parallel Pipe

For this approximately 14.6-mile route, which parallels VNG’s existing VNG Lateral corridor, the natural gas pipeline corridor will begin at approximately 2,200 feet to the northwest of the Interstate 295 crossing. At this point, the route continues northeast for approximately 600 feet to cross Interstate 295. Here the alignment travels southeast approximately 20,700 feet while crossing Cold Harbor Road and Swamp Lane. The route then turns east for about 1,000 feet and continues southeast for approximately 10,300 feet while running through wetlands. From this point, the corridor runs south for about 700 feet before turning east for approximately 2,500 feet. The alignment then continues south for approximately 2,300 feet before turning southwest for about 1,300 feet while crossing Interstate 64. At this point, the route continues south for approximately 2,500 feet while crossing Highway 60, then turns southeast for about 7,500 feet crossing White Oak Drive. Here the alignment travels south approximately 5,000 feet then turns southeast for approximately 600 feet to termination. Ladysmith Compressor Station Expansion

The Ladysmith Compressor Station Expansion is proposed to be located on the existing Ladysmith Compressor Station site in Caroline County, Virginia. Specifically, VNG proposes to expand the existing VNG-owned compressor station site from 6.8 acres to 12.8 acres in total by pushing the southeast fence line approximately 460 feet to the southeast to accommodate the new compressor station. The site is located just west of I-95 and just east of US 1 (Jefferson Davis Highway) north of Cedon. Gidley Compressor Station

The Gidley Compressor Station is proposed to be located adjacent to the existing Gidley Gate Metering and Regulation (“M&R”) Station in Chesapeake, Virginia. The compressor station site identified is located at 2512 South Military Highway, west of the existing Gidley Gate M&R Station. The proposed Gidley Compressor Station will encompass approximately 6 acres located on an existing ground lease.

Girls on the Run needs coaches for the spring season

Maryland artist presents ‘It’s Complicated’ in Manassas Staff Reports The Center for the Arts in Manassas is presenting “It’s Complicated,” a new exhibit featuring emerging Baltimore artist Dr. Yemonja Smalls. “When used to define the relationship, the words, “it’s complicated” suggest hidden or unexplained snags, trickiness or entanglement that blur the beauty of the bond,” says a press release announcing Smalls’ mixed-media exhibit, which opens Feb. 7. For the show, her first on the East Coast, Smalls selected mixed media to convey “the complexities that color relationships,” the announcement said, adding: “She explores both a metaphorical and literal process of breaking, tearing, hiding, layering and cementing to yield insight into what creates and maintains unions.” Smalls’ training is mostly in health care, not art. She works in the Maryland Department of Health’s Developmental Disabilities Administration, completed her pre-doctoral internship at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Kennedy Krieger Institute and received her doctorate from Louisiana State University

in clinical psychology. Smalls’ work has been displayed at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, on the set of the TV show “Empire,” at Harold Washington Library, the South Side Community Art Center, Gallery Guichard, Howard University, Hill Center Galleries, the Sojourner Family Peace Center, among others, and reside in various private collections across the nation.

If you lived here, you’d be home now -- and enjoying all that is new in this top-to-bottom renovation. Located in the quiet community of Warrenton Lakes, on the Washington, D.C. side of town, this home sits on just over a half acre, which has fencing on three sides of the back yard. The exterior boasts all new siding, exterior doors, gutters, downspouts, a 50-year-rated asphalt roof, fresh landscaping, a 12 by 20-foot Trex® and pressured-treated deck and an enlarged asphalt driveway that comes with its own one-year warranty. Unlike traditional 1980s era homes, the main level on this split foyer has been opened up to create line of sight throughout the main living area. The new flooring on the main level is three-quarter-inch oak hardwoods, installed and finished. The kitchen sparkles with light with quality white Shaker cabinets, complete with soft-close drawers and doors. The salt-and-pepper granite countertop is tastefully color coordinated with a shining white subway-tiled backsplash and black stainless appliances. The deepbowl, stainless-steel sink underWe are pledged to the letter and spirit of Virginia’s policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the Commonwealth.

mounted, complete with matching fixtures and new garbage disposal. There are three bedrooms on the main level, each complemented by new upgraded and neutral carpet, so your first step out of bed will be warm and soft. The master and hallway bath have wood-grain, ceramic-tiled floors to give traction for wet feet. Like the kitchen, every single element in all three bathrooms is brand new: flooring, subway tiles, tubs, commodes, vanities and fixtures. Every light fixture in the home is energy-efficient LED, right down to the lighted closets in every bedroom. Recessed lighting in the fully-finished lower level brings a brightness the sun would envy. It’s bright enough in the laundry room that you’ll have no excuse for missmatched socks, and the new panel box ties it all together. If the mood hits you on a chilly winter evening, however, turn out those lights and bask in the romance of your wood-burning fireplace. The layout adjacent to the fireplace wall is conducive for a great media

or game room. The possibilities are yours to explore. The fourth bedroom is on the lower level, as is a 10-by-12-foot bonus room that could be used at your discretion. Both have the same lighted closets and new carpeting as the upstairs bedrooms. Aside from the wood-grain ceramic tile in the lower-level full bath and carpeting in the bedrooms, the remaining areas on the lower level have wood-grain luxury vinyl plank that is both attractive and durable. You’ll notice in both the upper and lower level living areas that the oversized baseboards and crown molding truly finish off that polished look. At the asking price of $425,000, you will be hard-pressed to find a similar home in the area that offers so much space and upgrades. Why wait until spring? Take advantage of today’s low interest rates. Contact Beth Liles 540-717-2337 Beth.liles@c21nm.com

Dr. Joseph Lawrence Wysocki lost his battle to cancer in the early morning of January 13, 2020 with his beautiful wife of 52 years, Carolyn, by his side. He gave his bride one final gift, celebrating her 75th birthday with her on an unseasonably warm January day. He was known for his infectious laugh, gregarious personality, and joy for life, and adored his three granddaughters, Audrey, Anna, and Olive, who affectionately referred to him as their “Dziadzi Joe,” Polish for grandpa. Joseph was born October 19, 1944 to Joseph Frank Wysocki and Helen Anna (Jaskiewicz) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and grew up in Port Richmond, a Polish neighborhood. He was very proud of his Polish heritage and his family will continue honoring him and will carry on the Polish traditions he shared with them. He is preceded in death by his parents, his sister, Marianne (Jeri) Geraldine (Pawlowic), his in-laws, Basil Haines and Alice Blair, his beloved sister-in-law Virginia Clevenger, his brother-in-law Leonard (Len) Leszczynski and many aunts and uncles. He is survived by his wife, Carolyn Blair Wysocki, his sister, Loretta Leszczynski, daughters Tiffany Navin (and husband John), Marya Johnson (and husband Chris), and Amber Stewart (and husband Ryan), his granddaughters, cousins, and many nieces and nephews who adored him. Joseph attended Catholic grade school at St. Adalbert Roman Catholic Church in Port Richmond, PA also the church he attended throughout his childhood. He graduated from Holy Ghost Preparatory in Cornwall Heights, PA in 1962, attended Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA and eventually graduated from Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA. He graduated in 1966 with a major in Interior Design. Drexel is where he met his future wife, Carolyn Blair, the love of his life and his best friend; they married a year after graduation. He then received a Master’s degree in Family Economics and Home Management from Penn State University. He was the first family member to graduate from college and ultimately earned a PhD in Consumer Economics and Public Policy from Cornell University. He went on to have a successful career in housing; teaching and acting as a state extension housing specialist at universities including Cornell University in Ithaca, NY; Indiana University of Pennsylvania in Indiana, PA; Virginia Polytechnic and State University in Blacksburg, VA; Penn State University in State College, PA and the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana, IL. Joseph then relocated his family to Gainesville, Virginia in 1991 and served as the National Program Leader for Housing and the Environment at the United States Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture. He was passionate about housing and architecture since he was a young boy. During college, he developed a lifelong interest in mid-century design, Frank Lloyd Wright and fine architecture. He was a lifetime member of the Housing Education and Research Association (HERA), where he held numerous positions including President and received many accolades for his work including HERA’s first Distinguished Service Award in 1988. He loved his job educating and helping people nationally and internationally to improve their homes and the environment. During his career, he contributed towards countless publications and talks on housing, air and water quality, and energy and disaster education. After retirement in 2010, Joseph and Carolyn settled in Amissville, VA to be closer to their daughters and grandchildren. Joseph was most proud of his three daughters and their accomplishments and his three wonderful granddaughters. He loved babysitting and each of them have many fond memories of spending quality time with their beloved Dziadzi Joe. In his retirement, he loved spending time with friends and family, enjoying Polish food, genealogy, gardening, reading the Washington Post and biographies, and traveling throughout Europe. The highlight of his travels was a trip to Poland where he visited the birthplaces of his grandparents. He was always fascinated by the Titantic, loved visiting historic homes, and anything to do with Poland and his hometown of Philadelphia. He liked helping those less fortunate and volunteered and served lunch at Manna Ministry in Culpeper in recent years. Joseph imparted on his children the importance of kindness and acceptance of those who are different. Joseph also was a strong believer in political activism and social programs, and was a proud and active member of the Democratic Party. Our patriarch, Dziadzi Joe, will be greatly missed. A Celebration of Life will be held at Fauquier Springs Country Club in Warrenton, VA on Sunday, February 2 at 11:30 AM. In lieu of flowers, contributions to organizations dear to Joe would be appreciated including Fauquier County Habitat for Humanity (www. fauquierhabitat.org), Manna Ministry (www.culpeperpresbyterian.org/ manna), and Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth (nazarethcsfn.org).
