2 feared to be dead after Lehigh Township house Explosion

The Europa passenger ship was captured by the Allies and converted into a commercial ship in the post-war era.

Looking by Back Ed Pany My New Home In this second column, I am continuing to speak to the Rev. Jaroslav “Jerry” Mraz, former pastor of Holy Trinity Slovak Church in Northampton, who, with his mother, came to the United States from Czechoslovakia in 1939. With war clouds on the horizon, his father had arrived in New York in 1937 to work for his uncle. Jerry recalls, “My father met us. At 6 years of age, I looked

down the streets, and there were lights everywhere. I was excited. After a few weeks, we received a letter from my grandmother, saying, ‘You were lucky to leave. You were on the last train to leave because the Germans had seized control of the entire country.’ Our train ride had taken us to the port of Bremerhaven, Germany, where we boarded the passenger ship Europa. “When the Europa arrived in New York City, the passengers left the ship,” Jerry said. “The Europa immediately sailed back to Germany empty. It was seized by the German government and converted into a troop ship. It would later be captured by the Allies and converted into a comContinued on page 2

by HOME NEWS STAFF An explosion occurred in a Lehigh Township home early Monday morning on Blue Mountain Drive. Police and firefighters responded at 12:47 a.m. to calls of an explosion. Neighbors stated as soon as they heard the explosion and looked out their windows the house was already engulfed in flames. A man and his 10-year-old son were reported missing after the fire, according to Lehigh Township police chief Scott Fogel. Authorities fear the man, Bruce Miller Jr., age 36, and his son Bruce Alan Miller, age 10, were killed after the explosion. The Northampton County Coroner Zachary Lysek stated on Monday afternoon that one body had been recovered and they were still searching for the second, however Lysek declined to say which body was found. So far the investigation suggests that both Millers died in the fire, however no one knows for certain whether the body recovered was the boy, the

father, or even a third person, according to authorities. Police were notified by friends of the Millers that the father and son returned to the home around 9:30 p.m. on Sunday night. The two-story farmhouse on Blue Mountain Drive, dating back to the early 1900s, was owned by the Millers’ family and

was currently under renovation. The fire was under control by around 3:20 a.m. and multiple units were on scene assisting, as fire trucks were freezing and fresh pumpers needed to be brought in. At time of print it was still unknown what caused the explosion.

Submitted by SCOTT LITTLE With both sales and questions about transactions in her district on the rise, state Rep. Marcia Hahn (R-Bushkill Township) is warning consumers about proper procedures to follow when purchasing a mobile or manufactured home. “My district office has received several telephone calls from buyers about the correct process for making a purchase,” Hahn said. “Bottom line, the state of Pennsylvania treats mobile and manufactured homes in parks like vehicles, in that they must be titled through PennDOT, and a checklist exists for buyers and sellers to follow when entering into such a transaction.” Whether the mobile home is new or used, a title transfer must be obtained by the buyer. Only a notary who is a full-issue PennDOT agent can facilitate such a transfer, and not all nota-

ries are full-issue agents. “The titling process requires the seller to provide proof that all current and back taxes are paid in full,” added Hahn. “The recent change in law adds school district real estate taxes to the list of items under tax status certification, and the transferor must provide that certification at the time of transfer. Previously, only proof of paid county and municipal taxes were necessary.

January 24-30, 2019 3

“It is also a good idea to ensure all utility bills are paid and in good standing.” A fact sheet that explains the purchasing process is available by visiting PennDOT’s website, www.penndot.gov and searching for “Titling a Mobile Home or Manufactured Home.” Anyone with additional questions about this issue should call Hahn’s district office at 610-7462100.

Northampton Council tables Decision to waive water And sewer fees By KERI LINDENMUTH During their meeting on Thursday, January 17, the Northampton Borough Council voted to table a decision that would waive water and sewer tap-in fees for a new eight-unit apartment building at 1464 Washington Avenue. The apartment building, owned by MGMJ Holding Company, is at the site of the former Catholic War Veterans Association. Manny Makhoul of MGMJ Holding Company said the company has already paid $35,000 for the tap-in fees, but asked whether those funds can be returned. His attorney, Ron Corkery, said with only one meter on the building and six residents, water usage is low.” “[The hookup] has been there for ages,” he said. “[The building] is already using less water and sewage than its prior use.” According to borough manager LeRoy Brobst, it is borough policy to charge a full tap-in fee for each residential unit. He welcomed borough council to consider the request, but said he recommends against allowing it. “We are confusing usage with connection fees,” he said. “We charge the same for other apart-

ments. It would set a precedent.” Following Brobst’s comments, council voted to table the request so they could take it under advisement of their solicitor Steven Goudsouzian. Councilman Anthony Lopsonzski, Sr. acknowledged that this is a significant amount, both for MGMJ and the borough. However, he did not want council to make a decision that would put “the borough in a bad position.” The issue will appear on the agenda for council’s next meeting on February 7.

violent crime, DUI, sexual assault, juvenile crimes, drugs, and white collar crimes. An appellate unit and grand jury are also part of the DA’s office. Overall, DA Morganelli estimates these units prosecute 4,000 cases each year. About 44 percent of those are DUI cases. Another 24 percent are drug cases, while another 22 percent are violent crime cases, which DA Morganelli says are driven by drugs and alcohol. When it comes to drugs and alcohol, “we are seeing a huge, huge impact on our criminal justice system,” DA Morganelli said. DA Morganelli took some time to comment on issues directly facing Bath, including Bath’s decision to leave the Colonial Regional Police Department. “[I believe that] local government decides what is best for you,” he said, “[and] it can only work if this is what the citizens want.” He said, from his perspective, the change in the borough is working well. He also addressed residents’ concerns in regards to hate vandalism targeting Sacred Heart Church. There have been four to five incidents of vandals posting hateful messages and posters on the property of the church and school. DA Morganelli said the case is on the radar and he is working it with the Pennsylvania State Police. While he could not comment further on the matter, he did say he believes the crimes are driven by allegations of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. “These cases are difficult,” he said. “We are looking at all angles.”

Marijuana Possession At D&R Beverage

On December 28, Colonial Regional Police officers were working a “Cops in Shops” detail at the D&R Beverage in Lower Nazareth Township. Officers observed four people in a vehicle pull in the parking lot and park to the side of the building. Two people got out of the vehicle and two people stayed in the vehicle. Police observed two people bring a case of alcohol back to the car. Police identified all four people to make sure they were of age. While talking with the two from inside the vehicle, police smelled the odor of marijuana and saw a glass smoking pipe by the driver’s feet. The driver was identified as Dalton Kipp, 25 of Nazareth, and the passenger was identi-

Creative Corner Stories From My Heart By Cynthia Snyder-DeLuca

Thumbs Up Talent

This is a story about a little boy who is talented beyond words. Each day I watch him from my patio doors doing what little boys do best. I have watched him race around his yard, balance on the railing of the deck, and climb the green tree. Once or twice I even watched as he hung upside down from one of the branches. It might not sound like much to look at, but for me, it made my day. Two weeks ago, I noticed him disappearing into the evergreen tree. I was curious as to where he went when suddenly I recognized a small head peeking out from between the green branches in the middle of the tree. It brought a chuckle to my face as I saw him poke his head in and out. It didn't end there, however. Every day it was almost as if, he challenged himself to go higher up inside the tree. Three days later I stood at the door and watched as the little boy with the grey jacket, stood tall like a soldier in front of the tree, turned his head from side to side, then disappeared once again inside the thick green branches. This time, the branches shook and shook. As I envisioned him climbing, I caught a glimpse of his coat, then his head. He had

climbed all the way to the top of the green tree. But what happened next was extraordinary. The little boy maneuvered himself out from the branches and climbed down the side of the tree, stopping here and there for a peek inside. I could not believe my eyes! What was he looking for? The next day, the little guy did the same thing, only this time he hung on upside down. His silly antics made me laugh! Then as quickly as he climbed, he disappeared. I wondered where he had gone. Suddenly he was at the window on the sliding glass door, searching for something, but what? Then I realized what he wanted. As I went to the pantry, I smiled. I opened the door, reached down, took the lid off a large clear plastic container, scooped up a handful of treats, then walked back to the door. I opened the door and carefully placed the tasty gifts here and there on the branches. When I finished, I waited for just a few minutes for him to return. The little boy with the grey jacket started climbing, searching and finding the tan wrapped goodies, then scurried away looking for just the right hiding place, stopping for a quick nibble before heading back. I watched as the little boy made several trips. He might be small but sure can climb! I always gave him a thumbs up. And now it's time to end my story about a bit of a boy squirrel named Jimmy, who loved to search for hidden peanuts inside a medium-sized artificial Christmas tree standing right outside my patio doors.

What Employees say

The Gallup Organization recently surveyed a number of organizations and asked the employees about conditions at their companies. Here is what employees said: Only 22 percent of employees strongly agree that their leaders have a clear direction for their organization. Only 26 percent of employees believe their organization always delivers on its promises to customers. Only 12 percent of employees strongly agree that their organization does a great job of onboarding. Only 14 percent of employees strongly agree that the performance reviews they receive inspire them to improve. A whopping 67 percent of employees say they are sometimes, very often or always burned out at work. Lastly, 51 percent of currently employed adults in the U.S. say they are searching for new jobs or watching for new job opportunities. I’m glad Gallup decided to do this survey but was a little disturbed by the results. To sum it up, it seems that most employees don’t feel their companies have a vision, they don’t live up to their customers expectations, they don’t train their staff, they don’t feel inspired, they are burned out and over half of employees are looking for another job. How can this be fixed? Employers can include trusted employees in their vision for the future. Delivering a promise to customers is necessary for success missing that mark can only lead to ruining your brand’s reputation. Training upon arrival is such a good idea. It’s not just about paperwork; it’s about introducing the company culture to the new staff and also having other staff helping with the transition. When it comes to performance

reviews - inspiring your employees will go a long way when it comes to them serving your customers. Take your reviews to a new level. If 67 percent of your employees say they are burned out, you might be in deep trouble. Burnout is so contagious and leads to poor morale. Maybe you might double check to see if any staff is burned out. And then, 51 percent of all employees are looking for another job. Do employers realize how much time it takes to hire new employees? Why not consider changing your hiring practices, hire staff that you can mold to your company culture and spend more time on customer service and a high quality product. So, as a business owner/leader, the old way of doing things might not work anymore. Today’s leader need to connect with their staff on all levels included attitudes

and emotions. Employees today are not waiting a year for you to talk with them or review them. If you believe that, you will recognize that waiting too long means they are getting ready to move on because they don’t feel appreciated. It may be time to think about changing your mindset to keep up with the next generation of staff and leaders.

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip The weather was so-so, not too warm or too cold, but on Sunday night into Monday it really turned frigid, way below zero with all the wind, and there were a couple inches of snow on the ground. We’ve just turned up the heat in our potbelly stove and it’s warm inside, where we’re staying until it warms up again. That’s what most people are doing unless they go out for breakfast, lunch or supper. Oh well, another couple months and it’ll be spring . Next Saturday is Groundhog Day, and whether he sees his shadow or not the grundsow lodges will enjoy their annual suppers with some stories in the Pennsylvania Dutch dialect. . . . Monday was Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, so it was a national holiday. It marked the fight for civil rights and justice that has gone on for so long, hopefully will be even better as time goes on. . . .After the Pro Bowl this weekend will come the Super Bowl a week later. Those New England Patriots are in it again. The Eagles beat them last year, but I don’t think the L. A. Rams will. They were lucky to get by the Saints after a bad ref ’s call, then grabbing an interception and kicking a long field goal. Over in the AFC, Andy Reid still can’t seem to get it done in the playoffs, but Kansas City was good all season and gave the Patriots a good battle. . . . .Seeing that the Moore Township A.A. is taking spring sports sign-ups is a good sign that spring isn’t that far off. And there was a show on TV on Sunday about visiting spring training baseball stadiums and enjoying all the good food they have in the stands. . . . . Last week I had high hopes for a Bath dartball team, Garry Hunsicker’s UCC, getting another trophy and then I read that they lost three games to Northampton. The Lutheran team did all right, though, getting a couple games over the first place team from Bethlehem. Maybe they’ll get a trophy. Keep it up, gang. . . . Looking over the scores of bowling, a few guys have come mighty close lately to

a perfect game. It’s not easy, but they’re rolling in the high 280’s and 290’s. . . . Our sympathies to the family who lost two persons in a house fire on Monday in Lehigh Township. The fire company battled the blaze in freezing temperatures and high winds, but couldn’t save the victims. No word yet on the cause, but the home burned down to the ground. . . . I’m getting kinda drowsy sitting next to the stove, so I reckon I’ll grab a few Z’s until supper time. See ya next week and stay warm. Get outta the deep freeze.

Offer cannot be combined with any other consumer deposit offer. Minimum new money deposit requirement of at least $25,000 is for this offer only and cannot be transferred to another account to qualify for any other consumer deposit offer. If you wish to take advantage of another consumer deposit offer requiring a minimum new money deposit, you will be required to do so with another new money deposit as stated in the offer requirements and qualifications. Offer cannot be reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded. 3. The Portfolio by Wells Fargo program has a $30 monthly service fee, which can be avoided when you have one of the following qualifying balances: $25,000 or more in qualifying linked bank deposit accounts (checking, savings, CDs, FDIC-insured IRAs) or $50,000 or more in any combination of qualifying linked banking, brokerage (available through Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC), and credit balances (including 10% of mortgage balances, certain mortgages not eligible). If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the bonus interest rate on all eligible savings accounts, and discounts or fee waivers on other products and services, will discontinue and revert to the Bank’s then-current applicable rate or fee.

Submitted by KRISTINE PORTER Holy Family School has taken another step into introducing more technology into its curriculum. This time, it’s a 3-D printer in the computer lab. The computer teacher Joe McMaster said, “3-D printers are very fascinating to me because of everything they can do.” McMaster intends to use the printer as part of his curriculum and have his students create a variety of objects from small toys to animal figures and anything they like. “I plan on working with my students so they understand this new technology,” he said. “It’s amazing what the medical field is doing with 3-D printers these day. They are printing prosthetic limbs and possibly even func-

tioning organs someday. Some companies are even printing 3-D houses for the homeless.” The school received the AFINIA 3-D printer about a month ago. It is the usual size purchased by schools with the printing area completely enclosed. In addition to the printer, the school also purchased several reels of PLA plastic cord. The printer is also capable of printing with wood, metal, and even glass. McMaster said he hasn’t tried out the new printer yet, but he uses a similar one on a daily basis at the Nazareth Library, where he also works. “I am hoping to be up and running by the end of Catholic School’s week,” he said. The students are looking forward to it, too. for February 6 for Senior Night when we honor Noah Briggs, KIenyon Sheard, Stephon Sheard and Nick Viva.

The Unborn & Abortion

Do you know what God says in the Bible about unborn babies and abortion? God acknowledges the personhood of unborn babies from the time of their conception! God told the prophet Jeremiah, “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet” (Jeremiah 1:5). David proclaimed, “Thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb...My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret... and in thy book all my members were written” (Psalm 139:13-16). Every child—born or unborn— belongs to God, “Children are an heritage of the LORD” (Psalm 127:3). Jesus said, “It is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish” (Matthew 18:14). God’s wrath is upon those who abort innocent unborn babies! Psalm 106:40 states, “Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled.” Why? Because they had “shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters” (v. 38). Since the Supreme Court’s horrendous 1973 Roe vs Wade decision, over 60 million innocent unborn babies have been murdered in clear violation of the sixth commandment, “Thou shalt not kill” (Exodus 20:13). The wrath of God is upon our nation and His curse is on abortionists, “Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person” (Deuteronomy 27:25). Will God forgive those who are guilty of killing the unborn? Yes, if they confess their sin of murder to God and repent as King David did in Psalm 51. God’s mercy and forgiveness are conveyed by the fact that He sent His Son, the Lord Jesus, down to earth to pay the punishment for our sins, and it is only through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that our sins can be forgiven. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). God loves you, and He is “rich in mercy” to those who will call on Him for forgiveness.

Obituaries Carl Henry Mills

Carl Henry Mills, 89 of Mount Airy, MD went home to be with the Lord while surrounded by his family on Friday, Jan. 11, 2019. He was born July 8, 1929 in Jacksonville, PA to the late Franklin Mills and Mildred Mills Wedde and stepson to the late Charles Wedde. Carl was the beloved husband of Isabelle Weston Mills and devoted father to Dave (Barb), Mike (Vickie), Tom (Chris) and Jamie (Karen). In addition to his wife and children, Carl will also be remembered as a loving Papaw and Pawpaw to his nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. Many of his childhood years were spent growing up on the Wedde Family Farm in Bath, PA along with his siblings Irene Miller, Clair “Barney” Mills, Donald Wedde and the late Kenneth Wedde. It was here on this farm that he learned the value of hard work, a trait that followed him as he served our country as a Corpsman in the United States Army and during his 37 year career at the United States Postal Service until retiring as Supervisor of Mails in 1986. Carl had many joys in life, most of which was his love for his family, gardening and woodworking, a passion and talent he passed on to his sons. A celebration of Carl’s life will be held on Saturday, Jan. 26, 2019 at 1 p.m. at Montgomery United Methodist Church, 28325 Kemptown Road, Damascus, MD 20872. The family will receive friends at the church on Saturday at noon. Services will follow at 1 p.m.

WWI Soldiers Who Were Masons Invited to French Masonic Smoker Submitted by HARVEY HAUPT One hundred years ago this week, U.S. Army soldiers from World War I were in France waiting for a ship that would return them back to the United States. While there, 37 of them, who were Masons, received an invitation on January 24, 1919 to attend a Masonic smoker at the Hotel Splendid in Labourboule at Puy de Dome, France that evening. Those who attended came from Pennsylvania, Illinois, Vermont, Maryland, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Ohio, Texas, New York, Tennessee, and South Carolina. One of them was Clayton H. Haupt, a service member of the 310th Machine Gun Battalion in the 79th Division, and a member of Manoquesy Lodge No. 413 in Bath. He was my father. While I don’t know what a smoker is, I’m sure the men enjoyed themselves there after the battles of World War I were over.

Now that the elections are over, are you Ready for the next round? Submitted by KELLY BOND No joke: 2019 is a municipal election year in Pennsylvania. You’ll be voting for township supervisors, borough and city council members, school district directors, county commissioners and other local offices. The primary isn’t until May, and the general election won’t happen until next November, so why think about this now? If you plan to run for office, it’s time to get ready. To become a candidate, you must circulate and submit a petition of candidacy – and you can only do that from mid-February to mid-March. In

other words, you need to know very soon whether or not you’d like to give it a try. You’re probably thinking this article is for somebody else, because the thought of being an elected official never crossed your mind. But maybe you should consider it. Here are a few reasons why: In many parts of Pennsylvania there aren’t enough candidates to fill all the seats. When citizens have no one to elect, they lose the opportunity to choose the people who, among other things, guide the future of the municipality and set local taxes. Local government is where the

action is – it’s where decisions are made about how your community will grow, what shape the streets are in, and which services are most important. It’s fun. Really, it is. Yes, there are a lot of meetings, and citizens will complain, but there’s also a tremendous sense of accomplishment in steering the community and getting things done. Maybe it’s your turn. Public service is a great way to give back or pay it forward. And it sets a great example for your kids. You’re young enough – your community needs your new thinking. You’re old enough – your community needs your wisdom and experience. Are you willing to think about it? Here are a few quick ways to find out if elected office is for you: Visit your municipality’s website (if they have one). Read meeting minutes, newsletters and other information from your municipality. You may have to stop by the municipal building to get these items. Attend one of the regular monthly meetings. Stay for the whole show. Talk to your current elected officials. Ask them what they like best and least about public service. If you’re willing to give it a whirl, check out Penn State Extension’s workshop Toss Your Hat in the Ring, which will be offered in many counties in January and February 2019 – or take our online webinar. We’ll give you a quick civics lesson on Pennsylvania local government and then walk through the nuts and bolts of filing for candidacy and running for office. Our live workshops wrap-up with a panel of local elected officials who will tell it like it is, sharing their experiences and answering your questions. You’ll find a complete list of locations and options at https:// extension.psu.edu/toss-your-hat including in Bethlehem on February 13. The February 13 meeting place is at the Northampton County Human Services Building, 2801 Emrick Blvd, first floor, Bethlehem.
