Remembering noted parachutist Jim Hall Adventurer served stints in military and Hollywood
By Peter Jones Air National Guard Gen. Jim Hall, a pioneer in modern parachuting, a World War II veteran and all-around adventurer, died June 1 after a long illness. He was 88. The Centennial resident’s accomplishments include cre-
ating the Air Force Academy’s Airmanship Free-Fall Parachuting Program and developing the influential “Buddy System” for team-centered jumps from high altitudes. B.T. Galloway, a onetime editor of Parachutist magazine and currently a consultant with The Villager, first met Hall in the early 1960s and says his contributions were crucial to modern skydiving.

Remembering Jim Hall Continued from Page 1
“All of the instruction now is done through a system called Assisted Freefall AFF, and that was derived from the Buddy System that he developed,” Galloway said. “There was a real clarity of thinking. He was a real imaginative guy. He was a lot of fun to talk to.” Hall paid a price for being a sometime guinea pig. In 1965, he singlehandedly tested the experimental F-106 zero-zero ejection seat for airplanes, propelling himself 400 feet into the air and causing the chronic back and lung problems that would plague him for the rest of his life. He told his true-life action story in Parachuting for Gold in Old Mexico, a 2010 memoir with a forward written by his longtime close friend, former Gov. Bill Owens. “Jim was truly the greatest generation. He really personifies it,” Owens told The Villager. “Going into the military at age 17 in a battlefield commission and then living a life well lived thereafter – the parachuting, geology, Mexico. You couldn’t make his life up. I’m honored to have been a friend of his.” Owens goes so far as to credit Hall and his wife, Georgeann, for his 1994 win for governor. “He was there in the first days of walking precincts. He hosted meetings. He drove me around the state. He and Georgeann were two of the
original essential members of my kitchen cabinet,” Owens said. Hall’s life began more modestly in 1926 in the small mining town of Muckelrat, Pa. The son of a lifelong coalminer, he was the seventh son of seven boys and three girls. “My old man was a miner and a damn good one,” Hall told The Villager last year. “We didn’t talk about black lung back then. They just worked him to death.” In 1943, Hall was saved from his own life in the mines when the 17-year-old followed his older brothers and virtually every young man in the dying coal town into the military. He was trained as a flight engineer in the Army Air Corps and assisted in B-29 bombing raids over Japan during World War II. Parachuting did not fall into Hall’s life until after the war. On a whim, at the urging of his roommate at the University of New Mexico, he took his first jump into Mexico on a would-be gold expedition without any training. “I damned near killed myself,” he said. “… I got down and I landed very hard.” Hall limped away with little more than a few bumps and a bruised ego, but was soon back for more. “It’s all downhill,” Hall said in his trademark wit. “What the hell’s so difficult about it?’ … There was gold all over the place that the conquistadors had discovered in the

He was tough. I was impressed,” Hall said. “I didn’t know he was a communist.

I thought he was a bum like me.” Hall nearly joined Castro’s 1959 revolution, until the U.S. Embassy threatened his citizenship. “I sent word back to Castro, and of course he was quite angry. He tried to kidnap me,” Hall said. Hall finally took his talents to Hollywood. With rugged looks and an easy hand with a parachute, he was soon a stuntman and an occasional writer for Ripcord, a television action series. “Parachuting was the new thing. It was chic. So I was getting jobs
with commercials and dropping cars out of airplanes,” he said. Hall kept his Air Force commission throughout his career, eventually making his way to Colorado where he joined an elite team of military parachutists. He retired in 1981 as brigadier general. Four years later, he was inducted into the Colorado Aviation Hall of Fame. Hall is survived by Georgeann and two children, Jim Jr. [aka “Eagle”] and Jennifer. Services were pending at press time.

Dobersen: ‘If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing’ The most difficult time is when it’s all over, when you try to get to sleep at night. - Outgoing Arapahoe County Coroner Michael Dobersen As the longtime public official prepared to step down and move with his wife, Deb, to Frasier for a retirement of skiing, kayaking and mountain biking, The Villager caught up with the outgoing coroner last week while he was packing boxes. Villager: How does it feel to be leaving this place? Dobersen: Mixed feelings. I just turned 65. I’m going to miss being a part of a system that I have a lot of respect for. I couldn’t ask for a better staff. It’s not easy to just voluntarily turn away from that. I’ve been working in some capacity since I was in high school. I had to work my way through high school and college. While I have a couple of neurons left, I should do something to enjoy life a little more. Villager: There must be relief that you won’t be dealing with grieving families anymore or examining the gunshot wounds of teenagers. Dobersen: At some point you look at things and you wonder, where is this society headed? We seem to have this fascination with guns. But I wouldn’t say I’m burned out. I’d just say it’s time. Villager: What is the hardest part of working tragic cases like the Arapahoe High School, Aurora theater or Columbine shootings? Dobersen: Going to the crime scene, doing the autopsies – that’s not the most difficult. That’s something that you almost separate your emotions from. The most difficult time is when it’s all over, when you try to get to sleep at night or when the families want answers. They want to know, did he suffer, for example. Villager: What do you say when the answer is yes? Dobersen: You answer it honestly, as much as it hurts. Villager: You call the people you examine “patients.” Is this simply a term of respect or do you really view the deceased as patients?
Sheriff Grayson Robinson, left, shares a lighter moment with Coroner Michael Dobersen in 2001 during the groundbreaking ceremony for the new coroner’s office in Centennial. Both officials stepped down this year before the end of their final terms. Photo courtesy of Arapahoe County Coroner’s Office Dobersen: Both. They are my patients. They come to my office and their legacy and their family deserves an answer. There’s a saying that as a coroner we write the last chapter in someone’s life and it’s very true. Villager: Does the Hippocratic oath apply to what you do? Dobersen: It does, in the ethical way we handle ourselves, the way I deal with the county, the way I deal with the public. There is an element of trust. Villager: HIPA [medical privacy] obviously doesn’t apply, however. Dobersen: No, it doesn’t (laughs). Villager: Is it hard to maintain a sense of humor in a job like this? Dobersen: No, I think it’s required. Villager: Did you ever have aspirations to be the kindly family doctor or pediatrician? You never get the satisfaction of saving a patient’s life. Dobersen: No. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. When I have a family come in and I can put their mind at ease, you’d be surprised at how thankful they are. I’ve got a file this thick of thank you notes. If I’m feeling particularly depressed, I can go to that pile and take a look. Villager: Many people associate your job title with crime dramas like Quincy and CSI. Do you feel like a detective? Dobersen: I do. But I don’t go out and question suspects. It’s ironic that a good coroner or forensic pathologist will stay out of the headlines. Villager: What are your memo-

ries of the Kent State shootings? Dobersen: It’s like it happened yesterday. Throughout the weekend before that, they burned the ROTC building and a lot of craziness was going on. I was watching them throw teargas back and forth. As I walked to class, I heard the gunshots. I turned around and a
National Guardsman kind of pulled his rifle on me and said, “No, I think you’d better go back that way.” So I did. For some reason, no one was showing up for class at the biology building, so I decided to go home. I was probably one of the last ones to make it off campus when they sealed it. It wasn’t until I got home that I found out what had happened. Villager: Did the experience have anything to do with your career decisions? Dobersen: I don’t think so. Obviously, it had an effect on me. It probably explains my being a pointy-headed East Coast liberal. That certainly gelled a lot of people’s convictions about Vietnam and everything else that went along with it. Villager: Talk about the oddness of a politicized coroner system. Dobersen: It is one of the disappointments, I think, that I wasn’t able to really improve the system. Here in Colorado, we have such an archaic system. Part of it is money. Part of it is political power. The coroners, especially in the small counties, are very politically powerful and they don’t want change. It shocked me [when the Colorado Coroners Association killed a bill to form a taskforce to study the issue].

Continued from Page 1 By Peter Jones Dr. Michael Dobersen got an early start as a witness to tragic violence. As a 21-year-old medical student at Kent State University, he was within earshot when National Guardsmen killed four war protestors on May 4, 1970. As one of about 400 forensic pathologists in the United States, Dobersen would later lend his expertise to such natural and manmade disasters as Hurricane Katrina and the 9/11 terrorists attacks. Closer to home, the Arapahoe County coroner would eventually conduct the autopsies on victims of shootings at Arapahoe High School, an Aurora movie theater and a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant. He would assist in the investigations of Jefferson County’s Columbine killings and the murder of child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey, among many other highprofile cases. Dobersen retired this week after 21 years of leading Arapahoe County’s death investigations and serving as one of the nation’s top on-call autopsy consultants. Raised in the Cleveland suburb of Northfield, Dobersen always had a hankering for medical research. He would eventually study diabetes, multiple sclerosis and herpes in settings that included research universities and the federal government’s National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. Dobersen and his family eventually settled in Colorado, where he remains one of only 14 certified forensic pathologists in the state. During more than two decades as coroner, he has conducted more than 6,000 autopsies. Along the way, Dobersen led unsuccessful efforts to de-politicize Colorado’s system for electing coroners – a position for which there a few official requirements, except the ability to curry favor with a political party. Many in the medical and law enforcement fields believe the coroner is a functional and apolitical position for which professionals should be selected by qualification, not partisanship. The Colorado Coroners Association, which is dominated by lay coroners who appoint medical examiners, disagrees. Dobersen, a lifelong Democrat, was asked to change his affiliation to Republican in 1993 as a condition of receiving his midterm appointment. He eventually switched back to Democrat before his final election in 2010, the year he was challenged in one of the more contentious and bizarre races for coroner in the state’s history.

The food chain is challenging KINDLING
By Robert Sweeney
I have been working in the yard pulling out old dry leaves, trimming up perennial flowers, and planting some new flowers purchased from Tagawa on Parker Road and Arapahoe recently. Had an interesting tour around this gigantic flower, shrub and tree facility owned and developed by Mr. Tagawa who still lives and works on the property. I’ve also picked up some planting soil and fertilizer at the local ACE Hardware store that is
just full of handy items like a new dial nozzle for my hose. Both of these companies are owned by local business folks who work tirelessly at their stores to create jobs, pay taxes and make a living. It’s not uncommon to work all week in business and end up losing money. When in business, there is no guarantee of a paycheck on Friday and there are always bills to pay. However, the concept and thrill of being your own boss is appealing, and America has been built by small businessmen and women and their family members who just pitch in to make it all work. I started working in the hay fields for my father at a very early age, driving a horse back and forth to dump a hay stacker that would lift the hay up on the haystack where it would be spread evenly, making one of those bread looking piles of hay that would adorn fields. Now, most of the hay is bailed so it can be hauled and sold in far away markets. You still see the large round bails of hay rest-
ing in fields along the highways waiting to be picked up mechanically and placed in a stack. Another early day chore was planting the huge garden. My dad would till the garden and make rows with his Ford tractor, which would make a ditch for water and the rows for the seeds. My mother would visit the local Rogers hardware store and buy all of the seeds to plant. School was out in late May and the garden was planted immediately. Tomatoes were put under hot cap covers to keep from freezing. The radishes grew fast, and within several weeks the little red vegetables were ready to be eaten with a dash of salt. By July we had beets, carrots, string beans, peas, cucumbers, lettuce, squash and some early new potatoes. In August, the corn ripened and was such a wonderful product. Olathe corn in the markets today is just the very best. We depended upon that garden – and living far from town, with
only ice as a method of keeping food fresh – the garden was our own supermarket. I attribute my longevity and health today to eating fresh fruits and vegetables raised without chemicals and pesticides along with fresh dairy products from our own milk cow that produced all the fresh milk and cream. We raised our own natural beef without the fattening chemicals that are added to it today in the feedlots. We were very independent back in the good old days, that really weren’t so good; the work load was hard, physical labor from dawn to dusk seven days a week with the animals having to be fed everyday. Today’s grocery stores are really marvelous and we need to be thankful for the folks who raise the food and to these grocery outlets that sell such wide varieties of quality fresh products.

Haven’t we heard enough about World War II from you? Can’t you move on? Sorry, NO, because June 6, 2014 – 70 years after the D-Day Invasion – many of us WW II veterans are wondering whether today’s generation has learned anything from what’s been called “America’s last noble war.” In a war dismissed as “ancient history” by some “closed-minded” news commentators, we vets want to share our past experiences of that so-called “ancient history” with you while we are still able to do it.

Dark horse Republican challenging DeGette Walsh promises younger, more tolerant direction By Peter Jones Republican newcomer Martin Walsh will not be mistaken for political veteran U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette, Walsh’s nine-term Democratic opponent. “I’m the polar opposite,” the Republican challenger said of the chief deputy whip. “I’m not a beltway insider. I’m a young person with responsible fiscal views.” The 33-year-old first-time candidate admits he may be effectively calling his 56-year-old rival “old,” but says his fresh perspective on representing Colorado’s 1st Congressional District is a value he proudly brings to the race. “She might draw that age distinction as an advantage for her, but I believe, quite frankly, it’s an advantage for me,” Walsh said. “I’m a constituent, a private citizen who was unhappy with the direction of Washington and with our representation. Diana DeGette has been in Washington for a long time and I felt it was time to stand up and shake it up a little bit.” Walsh, a resident of Denver’s Washington Park neighborhood, is the latest in a long line of Republicans that have over the years set their sights on the 1st District, a Democratic-heavy jurisdiction that for decades has been seen as largely impenetrable for Republicans. DeGette has represented the district since 1997, succeeding Rep. Pat Schroeder, who held the seat for nearly a quarter century
Martin Walsh after defeating a one-term Republican in 1972. Before that, a Republican had not represented the district since World War II. Democrat Byron Rogers held the district for two decades. For most of its history, the 1st District was confined to the Democratic-dominated City of Denver. More recently, the district has inched its way into the suburbs – first into Englewood, Sheridan and parts of Adams and Jefferson counties, and then into the more upscale Cherry Hills Village. District Democrats continue to outnumber Republicans by a greater than 2-to-1 margin. At last count, the 1st District was 44 percent Democrat and 19 percent Republican with the wild card being its 36 percent of unaffiliated voters. The mathematical quandary is not lost on Walsh, an investment consultant who received his finance degree at Yale University.
“The challenge to me is to appeal to moderates and independents, folks who traditionally may not have considered voting for a Republican candidate, but are unhappy with what’s going on in Washington,” Walsh said. The Republican will also face significant challenges in fundraising as the national and state parties pick their winnable battles. Even so, Walsh believes his mix of fiscal conservatism and temperate positions on social issues will make him a more viable candidate in an election year when public frustration about the incumbent Congress is high and President Obama’s approval rating is relatively low. Walsh also expects to benefit from a rule of thumb that says the party in the White House does poorly in midterm elections. While the candidate cites Wisconsin’s conservative Rep. Paul Ryan as a role model on budgetary and business-regulatory issues, he strongly supports gay marriage and a pathway to citizenship for many of the nation’s illegal immigrants. He does not plan to make an issue of abortion rights, though the Catholic “pro-life” candidate takes a more libertarian position from a public-policy standpoint. “My first principle is toward individual liberty without qualification in terms of your constitutional rights. I don’t want the church to be part of government,” he said. “I want Judeo-Christian principles that create our moral code, but I think it’s a mistake to get too granular with social-conservative
To win at a national level, the [Republican] party needs to be very inclusive, especially on the social issues. - Martin Walsh, Republican candidate in 1st Congressional District issues.” When it comes to health care reform, Walsh would support “repealing and replacing” the controversial Affordable Care Act by emphasizing the free market, but requiring better disclosure of health care costs, especially by hospitals. “Per capita, we do spend more today than any other country in the world, so we should be getting better results,” he said. “But you go into a hospital and you don’t know the price of things, so in some ways the free market doesn’t work. The wrong answer is to involve the federal government as the savior.” Walsh looks no further than recent scandals at the Department of Veterans Affairs as an example of poorly run federal health care, but concedes that Congress and the White House are ultimately
responsible for having underfunded the beleaguered agency. Raised in the Littleton-Centennial area, Walsh left to study politics at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., where he worked for Sen. John McCain’s foreign-policy department. “That was pretty formative, in terms of my political views,” he said. After earning his graduate degree at Yale, Walsh moved to San Francisco, where he worked for Goldman Sachs. Four years ago, he returned to Colorado, where he has continued his investment career at Innovest in the Denver Tech Center. He will marry his fiancée, a teacher at Centennial’s Arapahoe High School, on July 4 – an upcoming event that prompts him to voice support for marriage equality. “The right thing to do is let a loving gay couple get married as they see fit under the law,” the candidate said. As the Republican Party ponders its future, Walsh believes his is the model that will attract younger, fiscally conservative, yet socially tolerant voters. “To win at a national level, the party needs to be very inclusive, especially on the social issues,” he said. “If not, we’re going to lose elections for the next 100 years. This isn’t the 1980s anymore.” Election Day is Nov. 4.

By Andrew Romanoff On a Saturday morning in May, 225 students crossed the stage at the Community College of Aurora’s commencement ceremony. Many of them completing a journey no one in their family has ever taken. What made that journey possible? And as so many Americans become the first in their families to earn a college degree, how do we make sure they’re not the last? Those are critical questions for Colorado and for our country. Having taught at CCA and other community colleges, I know how important it is to keep the doors of higher education open to students of every background. We need a Congress that understands that too. Unfortunately, the U.S. House — including Congressman Mike Coffman — voted to make college more expensive and less accessible: • Rep. Coffman voted to cut Pell Grants by nearly 25 percent in real dollars, depriving thousands of Coloradans of a vital source of financial aid. • Rep. Coffman voted to increase the burden of student loans, at a time when student-loan debt already exceeds total creditcard debt. • Rep. Coffman voted for a budget plan that would force middle-class families with children to pay an average of $2,000 more per year in taxes. Some members of Congress defend such decisions by claiming they had no choice. That’s just not true. Instead of slashing support for higher education and increasing
Andrew Romanoff taxes on the middle class, Congress could end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas, allow Medicare to negotiate deeper discounts in the price of pharmaceuticals, and eliminate dozens of duplicative federal programs. Balancing the budget is seldom easy. But in Colorado, it’s not just a good idea — it’s the law. The State House led balanced the budget every year; in fact, we finished our work ahead of schedule, all four years in a row. And unlike our counterparts in Congress, we brought Democrats and Republicans together to boost support for both P-12 and higher education. The bottom line: If you’re serious about growing the economy and strengthening the middle class, you don’t restrict access to education; you expand it. We can and should do more to advance that goal, both in Colorado and in Washington.
Yet Congressman Coffman and his colleagues are headed in exactly the opposite direction. Their budget plan would impose deep cuts not only in higher education but also in Head Start, child care and special education. That’s a big problem — especially now, when so many families are working harder than ever but falling further behind. Millions of Americans have seen their incomes flatline or fall in recent years, while the cost of college continues to soar at twice the rate of inflation. Such struggles seem all but invisible on Capitol Hill. We deserve better. As a legislator, I worked across the aisle and throughout the state to prepare Colorado’s students for the demands of a global economy. As a member of Congress, I’ll fight to keep student loans affordable, work-study funding and other forms of financial aid available, and tuition within reach. For me, this priority is personal. My mother was an educator. My sister and I followed in her footsteps. Like so many of my students at CCA, my father and my aunt earned college scholarships; they formed the first generation to graduate. Education unlocked a world of opportunities for my family and for millions of others. This is no time to turn back. Andrew Romanoff is running for Congress in Colorado’s 6th Congressional District, which includes Aurora, Centennial, Littleton, Greenwood Village, Highlands Ranch, Brighton and Thornton.

What you need to know: New divorce law includes married couples, civil unions Submitted by Leslie Hansen illoughby & Associates is a five lawyer firm that specializes in family law and estate planning, two areas of the law that often go hand in hand. Family law includes divorce, custody, child support, paternity and other family related topics and estate planning pertains to the drafting of wills, trusts, medical durable powers of attorney and living wills. While the law surrounding divorce is static in many respects, there was a significant legislative change in the way courts determine and award maintenance (alimony) that took effect Jan. 1. The new law applies to married couples and couples in a civil union. It establishes a formula for deciding maintenance and implements guidelines that determine the length of maintenance. If a couple is married longer than three years, the judge is required to calculate the amount of maintenance that would be awarded
W
Leslie Hansen and then to decide whether an award of maintenance is appropriate. The formula for determining maintenance is based on the incomes of the spouses or partners and the length of the union. The
court may also consider the marital property awarded to each party and the financial resources and needs of each party. How long maintenance lasts depends on the number of years partners were married or in a civil union. For a three-year marriage or partnership, the term of maintenance is 11 months and for each additional month of marriage, the term increases. The term levels out at 12 years or more, to 50 percent of the length of the union. Divorcing couples should also know that maintenance does not automatically terminate upon the death of the person paying maintenance and may depend on how their agreement is drafted. Maintenance is still a discretionary decision by the judge and the guidelines are meant to be advisory only, but many practitioners are concerned that they will become commonplace and applied routinely.

Letter to the Editor CSO needs more
I would just like to tell Mr. Robert Sweeney what an informative article he wrote on the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. My husband and I attend the Pops concerts and enjoy going to Boettcher Concert Hall. We were surprised to learn about the renovation (it is needed but we had not heard it was going forward) and then reading about the summer concerts and the event problems. It seems that Mr. Kern is trying his best and alas taking money wherever it is offered. Still your article got to the heart of the matter –
we need a Denver Symphony Orchestra supported by our mayor and local SCFD money. While the title “business plan is flawed” is accurate, it might have drawn more attention with the CSO in the title. Could you do a follow-up and let concerned citizens know whom to contact and how to make our voice heard about this situation. It seems that the CSO needs more than our money. Thank you for informing us of the multiple problems our fine musicians face. Nancy Admire Greenwood Village
Littleton Block Party joins the circus Main Street welcomes tightrope walkers, fire-eaters By Peter Jones Greg Reinke is turning Historic Downtown Littleton into a circus – again. One year after the circus came to town during the Main Street Block Party, Reinke has again invited an assortment of tightrope walkers, clowns, magicians and fire-eaters to roam what he considers the greatest Main Street on earth. “We didn’t have a lot of money this year and all that stuff is already available,” said Reinke, the neighborhood’s resident P.T. Barnum and the president of its Historic Downtown Littleton Merchants. “Frankly, I find the circus theme is very enchanting for the downtown area.” This year’s return of the streetside big top, scheduled for Saturday, June 14, will mark the 10th edition of the Main Street Block Party, an annual event that has become a signature of the Littleton summer calendar. Denver television’s Greg Moody, a city resident, will serve as ringmaster. “See the great entertainment and check out Greg Moody’s moustache,” Reinke said. Founded by the South Metro Denver Chamber in 2005, the Block Party was first launched as a one-off promotion to state tourism officials. Seven years later, HDLM took over the event and injected it with the nonconventional luster of Reinke’s Turkey Leg-Wine Hoedown, Zombie Crawl and Pumpkin Follies and Goat Show. “We just think this is a great way to showcase the downtown historic district, invite the community and anybody else who wants to come see it,” said Reinke, owner of downtown’s Reinke Bros. costume store.
Main Street Block Party
Downtown Littleton June 14, 6 – 11 p.m. Free admission Food and drink tickets available at downtown merchants
Circus performers return this year to the Littleton’s Main Street Block Party on June 14, 6 – 11 p.m.
File photo
In addition to the circus acts, the 6-11 p.m. event will include five stages of live music, food booths manned by around 30 area restaurants and not one, but two, fireworks displays (at 9 p.m. and 10:50 p.m., respectively). “We got a smokin’ deal from Tri-County Fireworks,” Reinke said. New this year is a Paulaner beer garden in addition to the regular beer booths that have dotted the Block Party every year. Admission is free. Advance food and beverage tickets are available from most downtown merchants. Buy $10 worth of tickets and receive a free drink ticket – a deal that is good through June
13, the day before the party. Reinke says tickets are priced to provide an affordable night out for families, with the added bonus of no minimum purchase on tickets. Even though the community “give back” has not always made money – last year, it lost $3,000 – Reinke considers the Block Party a win-win for the businesses and the 20,000-some people who make their way to Historic Downtown Littleton. “If we spent $3,000 on some type of advertising and got 20,000 people down there, did we do OK with our money?” Reinke said. “The nice part is I don’t have to make money.”
Free shred-a-thon to benefit Newton Middle School Arapahoe Credit Union hosts event June 7 Submitted by Arapahoe Credit Union People fear hackers and electronic scams, but physical documents continue to be a favorite target for identity thieves. Paper-based information remains one of the fastest ways to compromise a person’s identity and thieves are all too ready to raid trash cans or leap a dumpster wall to get at it. As a safe option, Colorado Vault and Safe Deposit Box Co. and Arapahoe Credit Union will be providing an open shred-a-thon event on Saturday, June 7, 9 – 11:30 a.m. Electronic recycling will also be provided at the credit union branch on the northwest corner of Arapahoe Road and Colorado Boulevard. All services will be free of charge
with optional donations going to benefit Newton Middle School student programs. Local residents are encouraged to bring up to seven document boxes for secure, on-site shredding. Items to consider include old bank statements, bills, paystubs, credit card offers, medical records, receipts and anything with personal, identifying information. Teachers, administrators, and home businesses will additionally have the opportunity to clear out accumulated records. While there will be two lanes this year, small businesses and people with more than seven boxes should contact either CVS or ACU in advance to arrange for larger quantities. Free electronics recycling will also be available for convenient and eco-conscious disposal. Cell phones, old computers, printers, and accessories can be brought in for quick
and convenient recycling at the same time as the shred-a-thon. Unfortunately, televisions and large monitors cannot be taken. While there will be no charge to the general public, donations will be accepted on site with all proceeds going directly to Newton Middle School. Last year, the community contributed over $1,000 to student programs, money that Newton has been able to use for various student programs throughout the year. Anyone in the Denver metro area is welcome to stop by and take advantage of the day. With two lanes, and several volunteers, ACU and CVS hope to make the process expedient while contributing more to our local schools. For more information or questions, contact Frank Robinson from CVS at 720-879-7134. Details and restrictions can also be found at www.ArapahoeCU.org/Shred.

LYFE Kitchen announces 1st Colorado location with ‘Sprout Cutting’ LYFE (Love Your Food Everyday) Kitchen, a “fresh casual” restaurant, celebrated the upcoming June 6 opening of its first Colorado location with South Metro Denver Chamber business leaders on May 28. In a whimsical celebration of health, they cut a garland of Brussels sprouts and peppers to mark the occasion. Prior to the sprouts ribbon cutting, Mike Donahue, partner and chief communications officer, provided welcoming remarks, as did DJ and Rachel Mitchel, owners of LYFE Kitchen Park Meadows. Joining them were Marcia McGilley, interim CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber, Rick Whipple, chair-elect of the South Metro Denver Chamber and owner of WhippleWood CPAs, and Pamela Schenk-Kelly, general manager of Park Meadows Retail Resort. “We are thrilled to bring the LYFE Kitchen concept to Denver,” said DJ Mitchell, owner/operator or LYFE Kitchen Denver. “We believe LYFE Kitchen and our motto of ‘Eat Good. Feel Good. Do Good,’ will be a perfect addition to the area given the active lifestyles of the people who
live in the community.” More than 75 guests were treated to a luncheon featuring some of the restaurant’s most popular dishes. LYFE Kitchen provides greattasting, good-for-you food that is convenient and affordable. LYFE Kitchen offers delicious dishes to meet a variety of food preferences, and uses locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. The suggestion of “Eat Good” is brought to life through inspired dishes created by executive chefs Art Smith and Tal Ronnen, as well as Jeremy Bringardner, who recently won the title of Chopped Champion on the Food Network’s cooking competition show, Chopped. LYFE Kitchen’s three visionary chefs spent an entire year pursuing the LYFE Kitchen Restaurant taste quest - exploring varieties of herbs, spices and sauces - to develop flavors and find the ingredients that make LYFE’s menu so delicious. LYFE Kitchen is located between Crate & Barrel and Nordstrom at Park Meadows Retail Resort located at 8401 Park Meadows Center Drive, Suite 2805, Lone Tree.

Rezoning moves Caley Ponds Townhomes project forward By Jan Wondra n a lengthy public hearing on June 2, Greenwood Village City Council approved re-zoning the parcel of real estate on which the project, known as Caley Ponds Townhomes, is to be built. The 8.8-acre parcel, which sits south of Caley Avenue and just east of the RTD parking garage and the Yosemite Street overpass over I-25, overlooks Caley Pond. On a 7 to 1 vote, with Councilwoman Bette Todd in dissent, City Council approved its move from mixed commercial zoning to residential unit development. “The reality is that this land is never going to be developed as mixed commercial,” said Mayor Pro Tem Gary Kramer. “What concerned me was prior proposals for apartments; but this space is perfect for owneroccupied residential units.” The parcel was annexed by the city in 1987. The original owners of this parcel donated the adjoining portion, called Caley Ponds, to the city. It functions as the storm water drainage site for a large portion of the surrounding area. A condition of that gift was that the remaining parcel not be subject to the city’s 40 percent open space set-aside; the pond area more than satisfying that requirement. The current owner, Century Communities, purchased it in 2002. “Although we already meet that open space waiver, we have designed this project with between 30 and 35 percent open space,” said Mike Cooper, of Century Communities, the property developer. “We’ve tried hard to provide a quality project, private, as well as community outdoor space, access to the regional trail system, and neighboring park.” The project has gone through several iterations before arriving at its first reading, beginning
I
with Greenwood Village staff reviews, neighborhood meetings in June 2013, Planning & Zoning Commission review in May, before coming to City Council for rezoning consideration. The original concept included 52 units, many of them one-story units targeted to empty-nesters. “We found as we got into this project our audience for these units, which will be around $300,000, is actually younger buyers, singles, people moving here who want to be close to light rail, so we moved away from onestory units,” said Cooper. “There is a gap in this price range in Greenwood Village that we can fill.” Public comment was minimal, and positive. “I live close by, I’m a homebuilder and I support this proposal,” said John Keith. “I’ve looked at this property for a number of years. Greenwood Village needs for-sale, owneroccupied housing. There is a limited supply in this price range. Townhomes make sense and these are quality homes.” The current proposal creates a smaller, but higher building footprint, totaling 60 units, spread among structural layouts that vary the rooflines, layouts and finishing materials to add texture and variety. “We worked very hard to make sure that quality was our goal for this project,” said Joy McGee, city planning manager. “We increased the perimeter setbacks, limited outdoor storage, required upscale finishes and enhanced, two-story architecture. This moved the building height from 30 to 38 feet, but it created proportional open spaces between structures.” Three deviations were requested on the re-zoning request: increasing building height to 38 feet, monument signage deviation from four feet to six feet, with a decrease in
monument square footage, and confirmation the city will allow the agreed deviation from its open space rule. “We considered how the homes will look from outside the development,” said Cooper. “All units have upscale finishes, views and outside spaces. The main street is 30 feet wide and we’ve added parking spaces in front of the north units and minimized the look of all garages by adding overhangs and dormers on roof lines. It added to the height, but, because we sit on the grade below the nearby apartments, the impact is minimal.” The detailed staff presentation portion of the hearing ranged from on-site parking (every townhome will have a two-car garage) to turn lanes (traffic moving west on Caley will have a left turn lane) to confirmation of connection to the South Suburban Regional Trail, to building design, roofing, community areas and traffic studies, which project 379 car trips daily in and out of the development. “The point is, the majority of traffic to and from the site is generated outside rush hour traffic,” said Councilman Jerry Presley. “I’m concerned that there isn’t enough private outdoor space and not enough community space to gather and connect,” Todd said. “I’m happy to see this come before council. I’d like to see more parking,” said Councilman T.J. Gordon. “As a Realtor, I like concrete roofing on substantial houses, but it can overpower smaller units. I think we should allow both concrete shingles and three layer dimensional asphalt shingles, which look great and last 50 years.” A proposed amendment to allow either roofing option failed: resulting in a tied, 4 to 4 council vote, with Mayor Ron Rakowsky breaking the tie with a fifth ‘no’ vote.

The Inn at Greenwood Village recognizes veterans at Memorial Day Wall of Honor ceremony
O
n Memorial Day, The Inn at Greenwood Village Senior Living Community honored 11 residents who served in the United States military with a Wall of Honor. The Wall of Honor will be a permanent display that recognizes the veterans’ contributions to our nation. With fellow residents, families and the local community sharing in the celebration, each resident was recognized for their service with a recognition plaque on the Wall of Honor. Each plaque includes the veteran’s picture at the time of their military service, a current photo and a brief description of their service. Honorees of the wall include two Navy veterans, Warren Morrill, who was part of the Navy’s underwater demolition team, an elite special purpose force established during World War II; and Duke Hardeman, a Naval commander. Representing the Air Force are William Riedell, who served for 20 years as a chief master sergeant, and Lurline Jolly, our only female veteran. The remaining seven honorees were
affiliated with the Armed Forces, including Chalmer Scott, who served in the 94th infantry; Jerry Cohen, a linguist; James Ferron, an MP; J.C. Swiental, engineer; Don Frostholm, Nesrala Zegob, Jr, and Mary Jane Wells, a paid civilian. “It is a great privilege to be able to show our appreciation to our veterans with our wall of honor,” said Tara Miller, executive director at The Inn at Greenwood Village. “Our residents are such a wealth of wisdom and history and this wall is a great tribute to spark interest for all generations.” The celebration featured a patriotic musical performance by the Candlewyck Harmonikers and a flag ceremony by the local Boy Scout troop. To visit our Wall of Honor, call 303-3277340 or email GWmarketing@ mbk.com to set up a personal tour. The Inn at Greenwood Village is located at 5565 S. Yosemite St. in Greenwood Village and provides high quality assisted living services for local seniors and their families within a warm intimate setting.

By H. Throttle Ford’s motto now is “Go Further.” It is pretty practical, so is owning a Ford car or pickup. I’ve driven a Ford car for the past 14 years, so I am maybe a little biased in this report about this great American iconic company, but Ford is one of the great American brands, like Coca-Cola. There is a Ford dealership in almost every town of any size in America; they dot the landscape and it was Henry Ford’s dream to have a car that the working people of America could own, drive and enjoy. His dream came true many years ago with the family
dominated car empire. Ford hit a huge home run with their eco-boost engine technology a few years ago whereby they turbo-charged an overhead valve 4-cylinder engine and created a power plant that could produce a very hefty drive and also provide fuel economy to match. The Ford Escape averages 24 mpg, easily operating with a sixspeed transmission. Many Ford products are now pushing out toward 40 mpg, challenging any of the hybrid products without the batteries. The Escape is nimble, handles well on the freeways, and has a good feel and ride. I would sug-
gest a little more carpeting to ease the road noise that seemed a little loud at times. Stylish, smart-key entry, all the modern bells and whistles, a really good rear camera that gives a sharp image to the back of the vehicle. The Escape is a safety award winner and has almost perfect safety records with top ratings in all categories. The Escape is list priced at $35,030 and no doubt Ford dealers will do their best with special pricing and terms to put Americans in Henry Ford’s mission of having a working family own a good car.

By H. Throttle The “People’s Car” was developed in Germany prior to World War II and had a similar theme to that of Henry Ford who wanted all American working families to have a Ford car. The Volkswagen “bug” has been around for a long, long time and that distinctive style still is on the roadway, but powered by larger engines mounted in the front rather than the rear of the VW vehicles. Interesting, Porsche is now owned by Volkswagen, that is the tail wagging the dog.
The German car manufacturer is now the largest car manufacturer in the world with German top quality and engineering. The Tiguan is an all-wheel drive suburban style vehicle that is fully equipped with all-weather equipment and perfect for Colorado weather. Priced at $28,950, the Tiguan is modestly priced compared to other outdoor AWD vehicles. A 4-cylinder turbo-charged engine produces 200 horsepower and 28 miles per gallon on the highway using a six-speed variable transmission and an S turbomode.
Fun to drive – the Tiguan is nimble, has a fine ride, precise steering and comfortable leather covered seats. Heated outdoor mirrors and front seats provide warmth for sudden Colorado weather tantrums. Volkswagen needs to use a smart key rather than the key device for easy vehicle entry and start. Seatbelt receptacle is much higher and easier to buckle than most vehicles. The name is hard to remember and spell, but the vehicle performance is top-notch and this vehicle warrants a close consumer look.

N
early three weeks into the opening of the Regional Transportation District’s new Union Station Bus Concourse, bus operations are running smoothly and passengers have transitioned easily to using the state-of-the-art 22-gate bus concourse. To commemorate the new bus concourse, the RTD Board of Directors dedicated a bronze plaque inside the bus facility to the past and present RTD Board members who were integral to the Union Station project during the design and construction process. “This project has been all about partnership and collaboration,” said Chuck Sisk, RTD Board chairman. “And a big part of that has been the vision and leadership of the past and present RTD Boards and RTD staff.” In addition to the opening of the bus concourse earlier this month, RTD also opened the new Free MetroRide – its new downtown service. This complementary service to the Free MallRide travels between Union Station and Civic Center along 18th and 19th streets with stops every few blocks. The service is available during peak rush hours Monday through Friday from 6 – 9 a.m. and 3:30 – 6:30 p.m., with buses running every few minutes. “Ridership for the Free Metro Ride has been strong since the start of service. We will continue to monitor ridership closely and look at the possibility of adding more trips as future needs develop,” said Gina Callahan, RTD general superintendent of Street Operations. RTD and its Union Station partners held a grand opening on May 9 including a ribbon cutting ceremony and street party. The morning of the grand opening, RTD hosted a panel discussion titled “Public Private Partnership: The Colorado Experience and Lessons for our Nation’s Transportation Policy”. Participants on each panel discussed their experiences from being a part of transit public-private partnerships (P3s) across the country. Parts of the opening celebration were available through a
live web stream for people who were unable to attend in person. Recordings of those activities are available online, in addition to a flash mob that broke into dance during the street party.
Among the flash mobbers were members of the Denver Nuggets Dancers, the state champion Evergreen High School Poms dance squad, students from Aspen Academy, and RTD staff.
Local choreographer and dance instructor Shawna Riggio choreographed the flash mob to a music mix of bus and train-related songs. For route and schedule in-
formation, please call RTD’s Telephone Information Center at 303-299-6000 or call 303-2996089 for the speech and hearing impaired. Visit RTD’s website at www.rtd-denver.com.

JNF Mountain States president donates 1,000 trees in memory of pets Visit to Israel celebrates life, love and a 50th birthday Submitted by June Glazer Most people who donate to Jewish National Fund for tree planting in Israel do so in honor or in memory of loved ones. So, too, with Ron Werner, board president of JNF’s Mountain States region, who, on his own and with his family, has planted more than 1,500 trees. However, his most recent donation of an additional 1,000 trees, together with his partner, Jim Hering, may be a rare instance when those loved ones are canine. In late May, Werner and Hering donated a grove in remembrance of their three beloved rescue dogs, Shimshon (Sam), Zacharaya (Zach) and Lucy. “The idea came to me was while I was planning a trip to Israel to celebrate my 50th birthday,” said Werner, a Denver and Palm Springs resident who co-owns with Hering the Colorado-based home furnishings retailer and design source HW Home, Inc. “I was sitting in a JNF meeting where we were talking about trees and it got me thinking. “The more I thought about it, the more I realized I wanted the trees to memorialize our dogs, who were like family members to Jim and me,” said Werner, who hopes his and Hering’s gift sets an example for others who have beloved animals. “Animals are great companions. They’re

Ron Werner (third from left) and Jim Hering (in white shirt) with friends at the Hertz JNF Ceremonial Tree Planting Center in Neot Kedumim. Courtesy photos loyal and they love unconditionally. Ours gave us great joy. Why not have people remember their pets in this way?” Frequent visitors to Israel, he and Hering planned a two-week birthday trip bringing with them four friends. One of the activities was a treeplanting ceremony at the Harvey Hertz-JNF Ceremonial Tree Planting Center, located in the biblical nature reserve Neot Kedumim, between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. In a ceremonial planting, saplings—in Werner’s case six baby oak trees—were planted by the group. After about a week, they’ll
be transplanted to American Independence Park where JNF, in partnership with its Israeli counterpart Keren Kayemet LeIsrael, maintains its groves. Werner said, “I wanted our friends to also connect with the land by planting trees with their own hands. I think that for people who experience Israel for the first time, as our friends did, this is something very powerful and important to do.” The planting ceremony, on a day when Israel also hosted Pope Francis, came on the heels of a stop by the group at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, the world center for Holocaust
remembrance, documentation, research and education. The juxtaposition of genocide with planting and rebirth was no coincidence, Werner said. “It’s not by accident that we left Yad VaShem and went to plant trees. To learn about the death and tragedy that befell the Jewish people, then to walk out of that [museum] building and look out over a thriving, flourishing Jerusalem—it really drives home the importance of Israel. Then, to physically plant a tree in the ground and be part of that Israel, it’s like going from death to renewal,” Werner said.

Werner and Hering’s friends were deeply moved. “Understanding that the Holocaust happened so recently in history was shocking to me,” said Vance Bray of Denver, who is not Jewish. “That something of this magnitude could have taken place with the knowledge of the world, including that of my own country, is hard to accept.” “The tree planting was a perfect example of why Ron and Jim love Israel so much,” said Joel Milliken of Los Angeles. “It all tracks back to the connection they feel with the history, the land and the people there. It was a huge learning experience for me. I definitely plan on visiting Israel again.”

are other acts at the Do as well. More than 60 restaurants are on tap to feed the thousands of hungry humans, one reason the Do is slated to again be a sold-out party.

And here we’re going to tell you all about some info from the Voluntary Sector Network blog, focusing on a “How-to-guide: Public Relations for Charities on a Shoestring Budget.” This piece was sent this spring and under “How will you reach your audience,” it says, “More people read their local (news)paper than a national (newspaper,) so don’t immediately think nationwide.” Further down it also said, “Your supporters are not just cash cows…” “Half of public relations is about getting other people to repeat your messages.” And The Villager Fleurish section is the most consistently pub-
DanCing sTreets
lished local paper that does get nonprofit messages out to help sell your event tickets enough in advance to actually motivate the public to consider attending. Last minute consideration is less successful, so we often begin listing events 4-6 weeks ahead of the event date. Let’s face it, are you really going to write reservation checks or pay several hundred dollars online to a charity event you found out about only 48 hours before it starts filling hotel valet stands? Denver is known for last minute reservations as some people wait too long to reply but had gotten the news long before committing to come, planning to do so but wary of possible conflicts until the last week. That’s not our opinion, it’s what we’ve been told over nearly three decades. And The Villager doesn’t charge a dime to list charity events in its weekly published and online Charity Calendar. Also suggested in this report, which we find to be really motivating, is “small charities can play to their strengths by piggybacking on breaking news.” We absolutely agree as it pushes your intended primary audience to come just to be there when the news breaks and it certainly motivates guests to raise their bid sheets for the paddle raise. It makes us think of the Karen Carpenter song, “We’ve Only Just Begun,” to energize the audience after that good news announcement. With charities wanting even more exposure, a color ad in Fleurish is eye-catching in the online edition, as well as the printed issue. gloryweisberg@comcast.net

Memorial Day 2014 – My perspective
T
Submitted by Richard R. Kelley he unusually long and severe winter that has gripped most of the northern hemisphere is finally behind us. We are all looking forward to the arrival of summer. In the United States, summer is generally considered to begin on Memorial Day, observed on the last Monday of May, when, in addition to enjoying typical summertime activities like swimming and picnics, we pause to remember and honor the men and women who died while serving in our nation’s armed services. This year, on May 26, I joined the millions who do that by placing wreaths on veterans’ gravesites, saying private prayers or attending memorial gatherings. But there will also be many other related thoughts on my mind. More along the lines of my thoughts on Veterans Day, observed each year on Nov. 11 (the anniversary of the armistice that ended World War I – “the war to end all wars,” if only it were so), I will be expressing my gratitude to all who have dedicated a portion of their lives in one of our nation’s uniformed military services to do what they can to protect our freedom and achieve peace and security for the rest of us. Many gave their lives in the effort. Many others lost one or more limbs. Some endure and continue to experience unbelievable suffering of a different kind. They, and their families, deal with a variety of post-traumatic stress disorders, PTSD, which alter their relationships, their ability to work, relax or even sleep. Other veterans and their families are also bearing the brunt of an unbelievable scandal that has enveloped the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, which has “cooked the books” to look good while thousands of veterans have suffered and died from incomplete, deferred or even withheld medical services at a VA hospital or clinic. I’ll remember these former servicemen and servicewomen in my Memorial Day prayers too. I personally knew one of those veterans. Having been exposed to Agent Orange during his service in Vietnam, he pleaded with VA bureaucrats for

Richard Kelley and Mort Marks prompt diagnosis and treatment of the cause of his abdominal discomfort. Each time he asked – and there were many requests – he was given a different story but the same message: His files were lost. His doctor was on vacation. There were no appointment times available. Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Not too many months later, I choked up and tears ran down my cheeks as I tried to speak at his graveside services. On May 26, I also said prayers for others in the Outrigger ‘ohana who have quietly served our nation in uniform but seldom mention it. I certainly prayed for Mort Marks, a wheelchair-bound fellow-columnist, who writes each week for The Villager, a familyowned community newspaper serving the south metro area. Just eight years older than I, Mort served in the U.S. Army in Europe during World War II. On June 17, 1944, “D Day Plus 11,” 19-year-old Mort landed outside the heavily fortified, German-occupied port of Le Havre on the coast of Normandy, in the north of France. The battle for the city lasted until Sept. 12 with incredible loss of life on both sides. Many of the American casualties came from our own bombers, which had faulty information about the location of the front lines. Mort and his comrades then pushed east and soon fought in the Battle of the Bulge, a 1944-

45 mid-winter clash along the German border where Allied forces were almost cut off and crushed. Then they fought their way to Prague, the capital of what is now the Czech Republic. There, Mort related, the American forces met the Soviet Union’s “Red Army,” which had been driving in the opposite direction since its costly 1943 victory at Stalingrad, nearly 1,400 miles to the east. In those precious days before the onset of the Cold War, those soldiers who briefly met on the battlefield were overjoyed to come together. “What made you all so happy?” I asked Mort. ”It’s simple,” he replied. “The Americans had cigarettes but no alcohol. The Russians had vodka but no cigarettes.” Happy Memorial Day 2014!

State Rep. Daniel Kagan, Kim Dvorchak, executive director of Colorado Juvenile Defender Coalition and Gov. John Hickenlooper celebrate after the signing ceremony in the Joint Public Safety Facility in Cherry Hills Village.
Juvenile counsel guaranteed with Hickenlooper’s signature By Jan Wondra olorado chalked one up for kids and families, May 21. Gov. John Hickenlooper signed a bill into law that for the first time guarantees a lawyer be present whenever a child or teen stands before a judge. “This bill is designed to improve the functioning of our justice system,” said Hickenlooper. “For juveniles, a court date can define their future, either strengthening their ability to make the right choices, or sending them down a path toward a dim future.” The bill will finally apply the state’s constitutional standards to minors. “Children across the state of Colorado will no longer go before a judge in shackles, alone, to learn whether they will be locked up or released pending trial,” said state District 3 Rep. Daniel Kagan, who sponsored HB 1032, the house version of the bill. “This is a crucial change, and a great victory for justice. Now we can honestly say that we do more for our children
C
than the Constitution requires. When kids stumble, this can help assure that they won’t be kicked farther to the ground.” The formal signing in the Joint Public Safety Facility in Cherry Hills Village was done in front of dozens of enthusiastic supporters and public officials, including state Sen. Linda Newell, Cherry Hills Village Mayor Doug Tisdale, Mayor Pro Tem Russell Steward and Kim Dvorchak, executive director of the Colorado Juvenile Defender Coalition. It came after a long and difficult battle, which pulled together a coalition across party lines. The bill has been a statewide effort, melding support from Burlington to Durango, Fort Collins to Pueblo. “This could only have been done in Colorado and with the leadership of our governor,” said Kagan. “The first version of the bill didn’t meet with tremendous enthusiasm. But the governor’s quiet leadership gave us the chance to get it right. I am proud that it came out of the Colorado Judiciary Committee with unanimous support.”
Gov. John Hickenlooper handed the signing pen to state Rep. Daniel Kagan, who sponsored HB 1032, which guarantees that a lawyer be present for each and every appearance by a minor in front of a Colorado judge.

Mandatory police training codified as law
At the same ceremony, Hickenlooper signed a bill mandating that all Colorado police departments have access to and require professional training for police officers. Until the bill was signed, Colorado was one of only six states that did not require
professional training for police and law enforcement representatives. “Every motorist who’s in an accident, or in a situation where they need law enforcement, now they will know that that police officer has been professionally trained,” said Greenwood Village Police Chief John Jackson. Jackson led the effort by the Colorado Police Chiefs Association in support of the bill. “In a recent situation, one of our officers said, ‘I didn’t even have
to think, my training took over.’ He’s alive because of his training,” Jackson said. “It’s the training that keeps the public safe.” Jackson was joined at the signing by Cherry Hills Village Police Chief Michelle Tovrea and Avon Chief of Police Robert Ticer, who is head of the Colorado Police Chiefs Association. “This is the most important piece of legislation that I have ever testified to,” Jackson said.

Memphis Belle flies into Colorado Centennial woman shares flight with 92-year-old veteran
By Tom Barry The memorable Memphis Belle – actually a similar bomber painted in the original colors of the now famous B-17 – strutted into the blue skies of Colorado on June 2 and landed at the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Broomfield. This World War II Boeing bomber, nicknamed the “flying fortress,” helped win the war. The original Belle is being restored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, the home of the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. Margo Klebe, a retired Air Force 1st lieutenant who served in South Korea during the Vietnam War, now lives in Centennial. She purchased her family’s home because it was under the flight path of Buckley Air Force Base. On this day, she had the opportunity of a lifetime, to fly aboard the illustrious vintage warplane. “As a kid, we used to watch airplanes take off and land just for grins,” said Klebe, who grew up in Minnesota. Klebe arrived early at the airport, where she was joined in conversation with Frank LaBlotier, a decorated 92-year-old World War II veteran, who vividly recalled his experiences. “Our most memorable deal was getting back on the ground [after each mission],” said the gunner who flew numerous missions in England and manned one of the 50-caliber machine guns behind the wing. The two veterans and the media were given a preflight briefing by two volunteer pilots, John Hess with Delta Airlines and Ray Fowler of United Airlines. The pilots showed off the Liberty Foundation’s pride and joy, a fully functioning B-17 that looks identical to the original Memphis Belle. “It’s an airplane that you hand fly all day long and it makes you appreciate the fact that our veterans would have been flying these airplanes in formation being shot at. … It’s a handful. It’s a workout,” said Hess while the two pilots operated the aircraft by manual cables without any automatic systems. As the four massive engines began to start up one by one, the passengers experienced jet fumes and smoke that briefly filled the metal fuselage for several minutes, vibrating slightly. The vintage craft experienced a relatively smooth takeoff and headed north toward Longmont. Passengers roamed throughout the plane on narrow wood planks. The view was spectacular. The open-air slots that would have been used by gunners resembled large picture windows. “I got goose bumps when seeing the Memphis Belle because I’m really interested in World War II history,” Klebe said of this bucket-list experience. “It was so much fun. It was just fantastic. It was cool that we could get up and move around and see different things, different parts of the airplane. The take off was just so cool going up because I was sitting close to a window. … It was

You could feel the airplane swaying a little bit. It gave you as close as we will come to the World War II vet’s
experience.” The Memphis Belle will be open to the public and available for flights and ground tours on Sat-
urday and Sunday, June 7-8, at the Denver Air Center at the Rocky Mountain Airport. The half-hour flights cost $450. For

Dancing in The Streets at SouthGlenn Suburban village announces summer concert season By Peter Jones Centennial’s Streets at SouthGlenn announced its summer soundtrack, and everything from funk to country is on the block with the free annual Dancing in the Streets outdoor concert series. The Wednesday night concerts take place at 6:30 p.m. at the amphitheater in the development’s Commons Park. Concertgoers are encouraged to bring blankets, chairs and picnic dinners to Streets at SouthGlenn, located at the intersection of Arapahoe Road and University Boulevard. The season kicks off June 11 with Tunisia, a band offering more than the North African sounds promised by its name. The 10-piece Tunisia – with an emphasis on “tune” – mixes rock, R&B, hip-hop, jazz and swing into a high-energy show. Country-rock’s Kory Brunson Band is up next June 25 with music exemplified by “Hard Country,” a song about an ‘80s kid’s transition from hair-metal headbanger to a hard-rockin’ cowboy hat. It’s back to the beach July 9 when the Margarita Brothers entertain with a wide range of surf-ready music, from reggae and Buffet to Beach Boys and “Tequila.” If you’re young enough for ‘90s nostalgia, the JV3 has been “playing the ‘90s really well since 2007,” according to the band’s website. JV3 plays July 23 as a guitar-bass-
drums trio. The Long Run, Colorado’s tribute to the Eagles, is next Aug. 13. There are at least three Eagles tribute bands with the same name, but this is the local version. The California band is at Centennial’s Civic Center Park this Saturday, June 7. Closing out Streets at SouthGlenn’s series will be New Sensation, which will bring things closer
to the ‘80s on Aug. 27 with the promise – or threat – of “MTV and mullets” with music running from Talking Heads to Journey. For more information, visit www.shopsouthglenn.com. The Kory Brunson Band plays Streets at SouthGlenn June 25 as part of the free Dancing in the Streets concert series.

Behind a rear door is where support staff have performed additional technical and repair functions. The space also provides a storage area. There are six Apple Stores in Colorado, including the Cherry Creek Shopping Center.
The stores are known for providing sought-after tech support and an extensive array of Mac computers, iPhones, iPads, Apple accessories and company-approved third-party items. Much of the Aspen Grove store staff will be going to Park Meadows, the state’s highest-revenue center for Apple customers. Others will be working at other Apple Stores or training colleagues in the interim. The remodeled Apple retail location will most likely have a new storefront when it reopens. The Apple corporation did not respond to several calls from The Villager.

Less is more. The less water has in it the better it is for your
lawn, shrubs and trees. Water piped in from high mountain reservoirs has the least exposure to decomposing rocks and soils. Water, which travels long distances by streams and that is stored in lakes or underground aquifers, pick up minerals and salts along the way. Salts interact with plants somewhat in the same way as salty foods do with people. Salt leaves us thirsty. In plants, salts inhibit roots’ ability to absorb moisture leaving the plant water deficient. Excess minerals compete with other elements for plant uptake in the soil.
Symptoms and solutions
Lawns need more and more water to stay green. Water puddles on the soil surface. Woody plant injury begins with leaf edges scorching. Needles of evergreens become bleached. With continued salt exposure plant growth decreases and branches begin to die off. Spruce, ponderosa pine, Austrian pine, red maple, silver maple and linden are sensitive to soil salts. Ash, honeylocust, many oaks and elms are tolerant. If needed, have your water and soil tested by a laboratory. Soil based treatments are available, but slow acting.

8th Annual Rotary Club of Denver Southeast Veterans Appreciation Breakfast By Scottie Taylor Iverson
T
he month of May is designated to honor and show gratitude for America’s veterans. Rotary Club of Denver Southeast produced a moving tribute to those servicemen and women who have and continue to make sacrifices to protect America’s freedom. The catered breakfast – free of charge to all veterans who registered – was appropriately held at the Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum. There were veterans from the various wars spanning
several decades and many attended who were in their 90s. The oldest was 99, and had no cane, walker or wheelchair and stood like a spry 79-year-old. Not only were the veterans saluted, but recognition was given to the spouses and families for their sacrifices. Keynote speaker Gen. Jay Lindell began his presentation with saying how lucky he was to have his wife Dawn with him and her support of his more than 33 years of military service. He is a 1978 graduate of the Air Force Academy. Lindell’s
operational experience includes more than 4,000 flying hours in the F-111 and F-16 aircraft. Major awards include the Distinguished Service Medal, Silver Star, Defense Superior Service Medal, Legion of Merit, Distinguished Flying Cross and Bronze Star Medal. “It’s an honor to be in the company of heroes, with those that have served and dedicated much of their life in service to our great nation,” he said. “This morning we pause to reflect and give grateful appreciation to vet-
erans, to those who have served and to remember those who died to preserve and protect our American way of life and the freedoms of choice. Let us never forget to give thanks to those who have defended America and support those now serving in 100 countries. These are the great generation of today. We are forever in their debt. Veterans understand the meaning of hardship. The enemy we fight simply will not go away. It’s the warrior, not the reporter that gives us freedom of the press.”

It’s time to think about dressing up the patio with a container full of flowers.
“Your Satisfaction is Our Goal”
The Associated Landscape Contractors of Colorado offers tips and tricks for a perfect container garden. Photos courtesy of the Clermont Park Retirement Community
More than just a pot of petunias Submitted by ALCC The warming weather says “patio season” - time to dress up the patio with containers full of flowers. To make a stunning container you can enjoy from now until frost, follow these simple tips and tricks.
Containers and soil
• Use traditional flowerpots of varying sizes or get creative with any type of container that can hold soil and water and has drainage holes. • Rather than digging dirt from the yard, use good potting soil as it has the drainage that container plants need. • Place soil in the container within 3-4 inches of the top if using small plants in 4 or 6-packs. Fill the container a bit lower if using larger, more mature plants.
What to buy
be foliage such as ivy or sweet potato vine or cascading flowers. How many plants do I need? For a 12” wide container, you will need about 7-9 plants, for a 14” pot you will need 9-11 plants; and for larger containers at 18-24”, you will need about 1620 plants. How much space should I leave between plants so there’s room to grow? The closer you place plants in the container, the faster it will look full. Yet, by mid summer when plants have really matured, the container could be so full that it becomes difficult to water. When using small plants that have been grown in 4- and 6-packs, it’s good to plant 2 or even 4 of these smaller plants together rather than separating each one. Space each group of plants about 4-6” apart depending on the
varieties. Aggressive plants like sweet potato vine will need the full 6” spacing so there is room to spread. If you use plants in 3.5” or larger pots, it is not necessary to group them together. Instead, space single plants a few inches apart.
Final tips
• Use a time-release fertilizer that does not need to be applied often. This keeps the plants blooming and growing without having to remember to fertilize every week with a liquid feed. • Mulch with Soil Pep or ground bark or cocoa bean hulls to help hold in moisture. • Recycle the original plastic plant pots and plant tags at a local garden center. For more information, visit www.alcc.com.
Will patio pots be mostly in shade or sun? If your patio is shaded, you need shade loving plants such as impatiens or begonias. If it’s sunny, you need plants that take full sun such as petunias, zinnias, marigolds, etc. Next think about color and shape. Do you want bright, multicolored arrangements or softer pastels? Do you prefer shades of mostly one color with some foliage or a multicolor scheme? There are so many flower choices, it’s wise to have a concept in mind before you shop.
Use the formula: thriller, filler, spiller
An easy way to get a balanced and dramatic container is to apply this formula: • Thriller = a tall plant in the middle of the container. It can be a spike of foliage or other tall plants. • Filler = mounding plants such as petunias or geraniums. They will fill in most of the container around the base of the thriller. • Spiller = plants that spill over the edge of the container and can

‘Unsers’ Mountain’ By Linda Wommack The Daytona 500, America’s Race, is the official start of the NASCAR racing season, while the Indy 500 is the climax in IRL open-cockpit racing. The Indy 500 is etched in motor sports history by thrilling racers run by great teams and led by legendary families in racing history. Second and third generations in today’s sport include three members of the Andretti family, a fourth generation of the famed A. J. Foyt legend, as well as the third generation of Colorado’s legendary Unser family. With the thrill of the racing sport today, it’s well worth recalling the beginnings of the thrilling sport. And it all goes back to the Unser family and a simple dream and a magic mountain, that evolved into the Indy 500. It started right here in Colorado. The story of America’s most thrilling auto race is filled with history, lore and a legendary racing family. It is the story of ingenuity, camaraderie, competition and community spirit. It is the race to the clouds, a trail that winds and weaves its way to the top of America’s inspiration point – Pikes Peak. The auto race to the top of Amer-
ica’s most picturesque mountain began as a tourist attraction. It succeeded, and is now known the world over. Spec would be pleased to know his many thousands of dollars spent for the world’s highest paved road is still paying off - some ninety years later. Spec is the wealthy Spencer Penrose of Cripple Creek mining millionaire fame and the money - if not the brains, behind the Pikes Peak Hill Climb. It all started, as these things often do, with a slow economy and a million ideas for a quick fix. Spec had the ideas and the millions to go along with it. In 1914, when the automobile was the new craze sweeping the country, Spec envisioned a grand highway to the peak of Pikes Peak and to promote the highway; a first ever automobile race to the top! A long two years later, the road was completed, with the first auto race to the top of America’s beloved landmark taking place on Aug. 12, 1916. With great fanfare, Spec announced the first Pikes Peak Hill Climb. The nationally famous cigarsmoking racer, Barney Oldfield, agreed to race, but placed 12th in the finish. The winner of that first historic race was Rea Lentz, driving a Romano racecar up the 12.5-mile road in 20.55.4 minutes. A grand ceremony was held at the finish line atop the summit. Spec presented an over-
sized trophy, (on loan) and a cash prize of two thousand dollars. In the mix of all of this racing madness were three local teenage brothers from Colorado City. The Unser boys, Louis Jr., Joe and Jerry had raced motorcycles as well as a car or two with other locals. But they had never seen an actual race, let alone in their own backyard! That is until they watched the Pikes Peak Hill Climb. Louis and Marie Unser, and their three boys, arrived in Colorado City in 1909. The Unser family, European immigrants, found a home and improved health for Louis Sr., in Colorado’s climate at the base of Pikes Peak. Louis, a German immigrant, and meat cutter by trade, gained employment at the Borscht Meat Market, then located at the northeast corner of 26th Street and West Colorado Avenue. The young family of five lived above the market in the most modest of accommodations. While Louis worked below in the meat market, his Swiss immigrant wife, Marie, raised their boys with a healthy dash of religion and family values thrown in. The family pride, born of the old traditions, seems to have taken root in the boys, however, religion was quite another factor. Louis recalled in interviews years
later, “Mother made us attend church, down the street. Boy! We couldn’t wait until it was over to go play in the fields.” The family later moved to a small house in the 2700 block of West Colorado Avenue, which still stands today. The three Unser boys attended Midland School. After school, the boys often hung around the auto court at 2616 West Colorado Avenue. At the age of 14, Louis, the oldest of the Unser boys, quit school to learn about cars, and more importantly, racing. In an interview, Louis once described the art (or lack of) early-day racing, as a “pitch-in effort.” The Unser boys worked odd jobs to make enough money to buy auto parts. Often, they would “rummage junk yards for tires and such,” Louis recalled. In time, they managed to build a racecar with a Studebaker engine, a rusted Ford frame, and rummaged tires and wheels. The body was pieced together bit by bit until finally the Unsers had a racecar. Pikes Peak, often referred to as Unser’s Mountain, has been the official racing playground for this famous family. Since that first race, there have been only eight Pikes Peak Hill Climb races without an Unser competing. In 1916, all three brothers competed in the Pikes Peak
Auto Hill Climb where Joe was the top Unser finisher, placing in the top 10. Thus began the first generation of racing Unsers. Louis was the first Unser to win the race in 1934. From 1934 to 1947, only nine races were held due to World War II. Louis won eight of those nine races becoming “King of the Mountain.” The Unser legend was born, although neither Joe nor Jerry ever won the race, but came close several times. Joe finished 2nd four years in a row and was the first Unser to lose his life when testing a car for the Indy 500 on a Denver highway in 1929. Somewhere along the line, the Pikes Peak Hill Climb was dubbed “The race to the Clouds.” And it fit the Unser racing legend, for in 1937, Jerry Unser brought his family of four sons, Jerry Jr., Louie, Bobby and Al into the racing sport at Pikes Peak. This became the second generation of racing Unsers. In 1953, Uncle Louis won his last race to the clouds. By then he was also known as the “Old Man of the Mountain” and had accumulated a record nine wins, six of which were race records. A new era has dawned with the fourth generation of Unsers now racing the Pikes Peak Hill Climb, proving it is still “Unsers’ Mountain.”

‘Four Perspectives’ at Elements 5280 Gallery, June 7 – 28 Inspired by images from the West, a new exhibit at Elements 5280 Gallery brings together paintings by four noted Colorado artists. “Four Perspectives” features the paintings of Lora Witt, Peggy Judy, Martha Heppard and Victoria Ekelund. “Each artist approaches similar subjects but with different viewpoints and means of executing the painting. And, the final pieces will surprise you for both their beauty and capability. Each of these ladies has a distinct artistic voice,” said Gallery Director George Rentz. Lora Witt finds familiar subjects, even from the High Line Canal, and focuses on the whispering sounds of long grasses surrounded by snow. Peggy Judy is a fine horse- ABOVE: “Hold On” by Peggy Judy woman who knows animals; her RIGHT: “That Far Off Day” by Lora Witt work evokes the action and inCourtesy photos teraction of bison, fox, coyotes and, of course, horses.

Saluting Our Fallen Heroes Dinner & Concert
Submitted by SEMSWA Southeast Metro Stormwater Authority is completing the last phases of a drainage way improvement project along the Goldsmith Gulch channel in unincorporated Arapahoe County, east of Dayton Avenue and immediately north of Peakview Avenue. The Goldsmith Gulch Master Plan, completed in 2005 with the assistance of the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District, identified several projects to improve the channel and enhance water quality in the gulch and in the lake. One phase of the project just completed is a public-private partnership between SEMSWA and the Arapahoe Lake Homeowners Association and Orchard Ridge Homeowners Association, with executed funding agreements formalizing their contributions. In 2010, ICON Engineering was selected to design Goldsmith Gulch improvements to reduce the floodplain impacts on adjacent properties and im-
prove water quality by providing bank stabilization. Then in 2012, Short Elliott Hendrickson was selected to design further water quality and channelstabilization improvements to help facilitate the long-term maintenance of Arapahoe Lake, whose numerous coves and lake inlets receive storm runoff and sediment deposition from upstream development. Additionally, the Orchard Ridge Homeowners Association had approached SEMSWA to replace its pedestrian bridge crossing Goldsmith Gulch at the southeastern most cove of Arapahoe Lake. It was determined that an additional floodplain conveyance benefit could be gained by removing the existing timber bridge with hand railing and replacing with a low-profile concrete culvert crossing. By summer 2014, three phases of the project will have been constructed by both Edge Contracting and L&M Enterprises that will maximize healthy channel function, de-
crease flooding damages and enhance water quality, including: • New box culvert infrastructure at Caley Avenue for increased conveyance of Goldsmith Gulch flood flows (completed August 2011) • Sediment removal from Arapahoe Lake coves (completed, March 2014) • Construction of two sediment-collection facilities immediately downstream of Caley Avenue and at the southeastern cove of Arapahoe Lake (completed February, 2014) • Gulch channel improvements downstream of Peakview Avenue through the Appletree Condominiums, Peakview Place Apartments and Cherry Creek Farm subdivisions (anticipated completion date of May 2014) Total construction cost is $1.1 million for Goldsmith Gulch improvements. For more information, contact Molly Trujillo, project manager, at 303-858-8844 or visit www.semswa.org.
