Allen Township grants Extension to Jaindl-Watson Plan review
Miller family Fundraisers in your Community By HOME NEWS STAFF On January 21 a devastating house fire claimed the lives of both Bruce “Buddy” Miller Jr., and his son Bruce Miller. The support and outreach from the community has been pouring for the Miller family, who are a staple to the community and a genuine, hard-working family, owners of Millers Market. To help the Miller family through this tragic loss and the tough days ahead, a number of businesses in the community will be holding fundraiser events where most or all of the proceeds will go directly to the Millers. On Monday, February 18 from 7 a.m. to noon, an all-youcan-eat breakfast buffet will be held at Blue Mountain Drive-In and Family Restaurant, located at 1439 Blue Mountain Dr. in Danielsville. Tickets may be purchased at the restaurant at a cost of $10. Please call 610767-6379 for reservations. A 50/50 raffle will also be held. One hundred percent of the proceeds will be donated to the Miller family. On Saturday, March 2 from
2 until 8 p.m., a spaghetti dinner will be held at the Roosevelt Demo Club, located at 3980 Mountain View Dr., Danielsville. Tickets are $10, take-out is available and this event is open to the public. There will also be a basket raffle and bake sale. The Demo Club is currently accepting donations during business hours to anybody who would like to contribute. Call 610-767-2664 with questions. All proceeds will be donated to the Millers. A memorial ride will be held on April 27 starting and ending at Becky’s Drive-In, located at 4548 Lehigh Dr. in Walnutport. Registration will begin at 10 a.m. and kickstands will go up at noon. The cost is $20 per bike. There will also be a 50/50, basket raffle, DJ, vendors, crafts and food available for purchase. For vendor space, to make donations or if there are any questions, call Janet at 484239-1040. Seventy five percent of the proceeds will benefit the Miller family and 25 percent will help the Lehigh Township Police K-9 unit.
By KERI LINDENMUTH During their meeting on Tuesday, January 22, Allen Township Supervisors voiced support 4-1 to defer a right-of-way requirement and acknowledge a plan extension for Jaindl-Watson’s proposed warehouse between Seemsville and Howertown Roads. Jaindl-Watson is having difficulty obtaining a right-of-way for the southbound right-turn lane that will be needed at Howertown Road. “I understand the difficulty they are having,” said Supervisor Larry Oberly. He said the requirement should be waived until the development comes to “full fruition.” He suggested that a traffic study be done again after that time to see whether the road still warrants the turning lane. Supervisor Gary Behler said he
is in favor of the turning lane, but only if “the developer and [land] owner can get together without the township.” Supervisor Dale Hassler said the requirement should be deferred “at least three years.” He said he is personally not in favor of adding a third lane, which he said could interfere with emergency vehicles. Only Supervisor Bruce Frack voiced opposition to the deferment. Township solicitor Lincoln Treadwell will negotiate a timeline with the developers. In other news, Allen Township supervisors voted to renew their municipal trash and recycling contract with Advanced Disposal for a three-year term at the cost of $1,120,000. Supervisors opted for manual
collection. Automatic collection would add a cost of $200,000 for new garbage cans. The garbage rate will not be modified over the three-year contract and pick-up days will remain the same. Supervisors also heard from officers of the Bath-East Allen Sports association, which will be merging with the Allen Township Youth Association under the new name Bath-Allen. With younger athletes, Eric Miller of East Allen says organizers will be able to grow the program “from the ground up” and offer more sports programs like basketball, soccer, and flag football. He said this organization would give young athletes an alternative to the crowded Northampton Athletic Association.

“Disruptions to blood and platelet donations jeopardize the availability of blood for patients who depend on transfusions for survival,” said Cliff Numark, senior vice president, Red Cross Biomedical Services. “We’re grateful for all those who have come out to give since we issued our emergency call earlier this month and now urge others to come out and give to prevent delays in essential medical care.” Right now, Red Cross blood donations are being distributed to hospitals faster than they are coming in, and there is less than a three-day supply of most blood types on hand. The Red Cross strives to maintain a five-day supply of blood to meet the needs of patients and to be prepared for emergencies that require significant volumes of donated blood products. All eligible donors, especially blood donors with type O blood, are urgently needed to help re-
stock the shelves for hospital patients. Donation appointments can be easily scheduled by using the free Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800733-2767).

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual
Not Feeling So Good
As we all know, going to the movies just isn’t the same without a couple goodies or two. Over the weekend, my son and I went to the movies. He is in the middle of his wrestling season right now and needs to maintain his weight precisely. I am so proud of him for doing such a great job balancing all he does. So despite needing to keep a strict diet he did partake in some popcorn and a few “other things”. Before he started to consume said stuff, I looked over at him and said, “You are going to feel awful in about twenty minutes.” He did-I did too. Now I really want to feel good. We all do. However, our actions sometimes do not generally reflect it. In fact, if you look at what we actually do, it would appear that we are going out of our way to feel lousy. Case in point is the inhaling of popcorn that took place in aisle ‘H’ seats 11 and 12. As I write this article, I feel fantastic. So does my son. That pattern of eating was a single event that we both made a decision to suffer through. By golly, I will probably do it again at some point before the year is out. However, for the other 90 percent of the time, I am doing my best to generally consume healthy items that improve my well-being. I would encourage you to do the same. To the point, the food we choose to eat and the beverages we decide to consume will have a major bearing on how you feel and function. This may not be something that is new to you yet it is my job to remind you lest forgotten. If by chance you just feel ter-

Helping for 20 years rible, whether it’s physically or emotionally, I would encourage you to change what you put in your body. Start with water with and add a nice slice of lemon in it. Remove sugar. Add fruit. When was the last time you ate three apples in a day? Perhaps add in something green like spinach, Brussel sprouts, broccoli or green beans. The issue isn’t so much about being perfect always; it’s more about being pretty good most of the time. Get the point? If you are really sick then change things around right now. I promise you that you will feel so much better in a relatively short period of time if you actually do what you know in your heart you should be doing. I understand the mental struggles that take place and yes, the physical addictions that can entrap us yet I am asking you to not worry about all that right now. Simply do something good for yourself.

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip The weather has been pretty cold, but if you bundled up, it wasn’t all that bad. This Saturday is Groundhog Day, and whether he sees his shadow or not, it doesn’t matter. The grundsow lodge members will enjoy their annual suppers with some stories in the Pennsylvania Dutch dialect. . . .The Pro Bowl was kinda dull. The AFC came out on top, and the NFC didn’t score till almost the end. Saw some Saquon Barkley though. The Dallas Coyboys’ coach was smiling all the way, so you can see how that mattered to him. This Sunday is the Super Bowl with the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams. It should be a good battle, but the Eagles will watch from their homes. . . . Gas prices have leveled off at $2.45 regular and over $3.00 for high test. . . .Looks like a big housing development going in on a field down along 512 before you get to Hanover Township, which would be East Allen Township. There goes more open space. With the big warehouses and the workers employed there, I guess we need more housing, but it’s a shame to see all the farmland that’s being gobbled up. . . .My eyes are burning right now as I’m writing this. The sun was bright on Monday, and I hadta squint as we drove along. Or maybe I’ve been sitting too close to the stove. Or maybe I’m tired. Didya ever get like that? Think I’ll put in a few eye drops. . . .It was good to see D.A. John Morganelli here, meeting with a neighborhood watch
group. . . .That was an interesting story about Rev. Jerry Mraz from Northampton. His travels here from Europe when he was very young. Thanks for telling his story, Ed . . . . Chuck Frantz has arranged for quite a few bus trips to see his favorite New York Yankees play during the upcoming season. By the way, I think spring training is about to start, and all Phillies fans can do is hope. Not much chance of seeing the two free agents they were looking for. . . .Crews are working on the Mill St. bridge that will take a year. I was thinking. That bridge down along 512 is another one that should go. . . .We’re supposed to get 2 to 4 inches of snow Tuesday and Wednesday, as North Pole air makes an arrival in these parts. Oh well, February 1st is this Friday, so it shouldn’t last long.

When Jesus Comes
I love the inspiring words of this old Gospel song, “When Jesus comes, the tempter’s power is broken; When Jesus comes, the tears are wiped away. He takes the gloom and fills the life with glory, For all is changed when Jesus comes to stay.” A wild, demented man lived in tombs—the insane asylum of the Gadarenes (Mark 5). He was tormented by demons—always crying and cutting himself with stones—men couldn’t tame him and chains couldn’t bind him. He was a hopeless outcast of society. Then Jesus came, and the tempter’s power was broken! A wicked woman had gone through five husbands and was living a confused life in sin and shame with yet another man—she was seeking, searching, thirsting for something to quench her inner longings (John 4). Then Jesus came and all was changed as He satisfied her soul with “living water” and filled her life with glory! (See more on this at: www.naog.ws/thirsty.htm) Two sisters were hopelessly mourning their brother’s untimely death and burial (John 11). Four days had passed. Then Jesus came and proclaimed, “I am the resurrection, and the life!” Suddenly, at His command, “Lazarus, come forth,” their brother emerged from the tomb alive! Yes, “When Jesus comes, the tears are wiped away. He takes the gloom and fills the life with glory!” Perhaps you are in a hopeless situation right now. I urge you to call upon Jesus in prayer. The Bible promises, “Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21). I also invite you to attend our church services where you can meet the Lord and have your life filled with glory “When Jesus comes!” Note: To receive this column weekly via email, send an email request to: pastor@NAOG.ws

Bruce A. “Buddy” Miller Jr.
Our community suffered a great loss on Monday morning, Jan. 21, 2019, when Bruce A. “Buddy” Miller Jr. passed away alongside his beloved son, Bruce Alan Miller in Danielsville, PA. Buddy was a friend to all and an amazing father. He loved his two boys more than life itself and had big plans for his family’s future. He was known best for his bright smile, quick wit, kind heart and unrivaled work ethic. He was the owner of Better Bid Tree Service for over 15 years and loved operating all of his newest work toys. His free time was spent fishing, hunting, rooting for the Eagles and Phillies, playing video games, bowling, snowboarding and spending time with his family and friends. He had a passion for cars, country music and being a prankster. He valued
every relationship, including his with our Lord Jesus. He was a member of Mt. View Wesleyan Church, The Nimrod Hunting Club, The Demo Club and Blue Mt. Fish and Game. Bruce left behind a large, loving family. His parents, Bruce and Lynn Miller, fiancé, Francesca Gianguzi, their son Evan, her children, Gabriel and Alivia, his sister Lori Generose, her husband Michael and niece and nephew, Kate and Rocco along with a vast extended family. A Celebration of both lives will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 2, 2019 at Bethany Wesleyan Church, 675 Blue Mountain Dr., Cherryville, PA 18035. The family will receive friends from 10 to 11 a.m. prior to the service on Saturday and on Friday, Feb.1, 2019 from 2 to 4 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. all at the church. Arrangements are under the care of Schisler Funeral Home, 2119 Washington Ave. Northampton, PA 18067. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Lehigh Township Volunteer Fire Company c/o the funeral home. Online condolences may be made to the family at www.schislerfuneralhomes.com Although their time here was cut short and our hearts are sad, it’s impossible not to smile when you think of the joy and happiness Buddy and Brucie have brought to every single life they touched. We are all better because of the love we’ve shared with them.
Bruce Alan Miller
Bruce Alan Miller, age 10, died on Monday, Jan. 21, 2019 in a tragic accident in Lehigh Township, PA. Those who knew Bruce, even just a little, lost a shining light in their lives. Bruce was born Sept. 22, 2008, in Lehigh Township, to parents Lara Miller-Demeter and Bruce Miller Jr. An optimistic, charismatic child, Bruce was known by his family and friends to be smart, loyal and a team player. “Bruce was mature beyond his years. He had an infectious smile, and was determined to do his best at school and do right by his friends”, said his mother Lara. “He could brighten your day just by saying hi, and had an effortless ability to unite people.” He loved playing Fortnite, could tell you the make and model of any car, and was at his best when teaching his younger brother Carl how to take on the World. Bruce is survived by his mother, Lara Miller-Demeter, stepfather, Tim Demeter, his father’s fiancée Francesca Gianguzi, his brothers Carl, Evan, Michael, Jacob, and Gabriel, his sister Alivia, his maternal grandparents, Aparecida and Philip Ng, paternal grandparents Bruce and Lynn Miller, his step grandparents Rich and Emily Demeter, his aunts and uncles, Carla and Trevor Baumel, Lori and Mike Generose , Frank and
Amanda Demeter, Dan Demeter, Rich Demeter, Pat Blackford, his cousins Katie, Rocco, River and Lennon, his pets Duke, Jean-Luc and Hiro, as well as his big extended family and many friends. Bruce is joined in death with his father, Bruce Miller Jr. When you think of Bruce, celebrate the good memories you have of him.

Old Bath- Sleigh Riding Police By Charles McIlhaney Jr. My dad once told me that in his boyhood (circa 1920s), winter car traffic on the streets of Bath was almost non-existent. On a good day, they would start off on sleds at the top of Northampton Street hill, then glide down the hill and pass over Walnut Street with enough momentum to turn onto South Chestnut Street and end up as far as the Town Square. When I was a boy (1950s), the East Bath kids enjoyed sledding on the blocked off streets in their part of town. Segenbach’s Hill, an off road slope near the corner of Penn and Washington Streets was also popular with sleigh riders. Our favorite site was the big hill that today backdrops Old Forge development (Kasafas Hill). I used the old “flexible flyer” sled handed down to me from my dad, which was big enough to accommodate three kids sitting
bobsled style. The hill was wide and steep enough to traverse laterally across the expanse, make a wide turn and glide back to finish up at the bottom of the hill directly below the starting point. After the grueling climb straight back up the hill, we usually took some time to enjoy the view, while rehashing the incidentals of the last ride and savoring the anticipation of the next.

Reports
Retail theft/ Simple assault At Target
On January 25 the Colonial Regional Police responded to the Target in Lower Nazareth Township for a report of a theft in progress with an actor refusing to cooperate. On arrival, Target security reported that the actor, known as Kiet Tran, 49 of Easton, bit the employee and ran towards Panera Bread. An officer found Tran in the McDonald’s parking lot and took him into custody without incident. It was later determined that Tran found a receipt in the Target trash, then went into the store and selected the items on the receipt. The items, a pack of markers, a corkboard, and a microwave, were then returned for a credit on a gift card. Tran then took the gift card, valued at $92.19, and exited the store where he was detained briefly by security before biting the employee and fleeing. Tran faces charges of theft by deception, simple assault and harassment.

What your Pain is telling You – and 3 Things to do Aboutsubmitted it by
TERRY STANTON Is that pain you feel in your back, neck or shoulders just a momentary twinge from strain you are putting on your body, perhaps with a new exercise regimen? Or is there something deeper and more serious at work? Either way, you ignore it at your peril. “Pain is an alert system; it tells us that something is wrong,” says Bradford Butler, a chiropractor and author of The Blueprint for Back Pain Relief: The Essential Guide to Nonsurgical Solutions (www.drbradfordbutler.com). “Chronic pain goes a step further. It is telling you that a whole system in your body isn’t working right.” For many people and their physicians, the first option for pain, and sometimes the second and third options as well, is to munch on some pain pills – overthe-counter or prescribed – and go on your way. “That’s fine, except it doesn’t address the fundamental problem,” Butler says. “Too often, with back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain or other chronic pain, many doctors focus on reducing the pain rather than addressing the cause.” He likens it to waking up with an excruciating toothache, and then visiting a dentist who discovers a huge cavity but, instead of repairing the cavity, just gives you a powerful drug for the pain and sends you home. “Left untreated, the pain would get more debilitating and the damage to the tooth would worsen, leading to bigger and more invasive and expensive procedures,” Butler says. “But that’s what happens when it comes to the American healthcare system and treatment for chronic pain.” Butler offers these words of advice for those whose bodies are trying to warn them that something is amiss:
www.HomeNewsPA.com
Choose your doctor wisely. Blind faith in any doctor is not the answer, Butler says. Instead, ask yourself what the particular doctor you plan to visit is trained to do. In the primary care world, for example, doctors are trained to analyze and to treat symptoms, so they are more likely address the pain rather than its cause. Surgeons often will recommend surgery, because that’s their specialty. Yet, he says, medicine just masks symptoms and surgery isn’t always successful. “It’s your pain, so ultimately it’s up to you to do the research and find out what works, avoid what doesn’t, and find someone who will really help you with your problem,” Butler says. Don’t let your body resetting its pain level fool you. What happens when you let the pain go? Your body adapts. “It can’t sound the alarm constantly, so it resets,” Butler says. “Where once the threshold for pain was X amount of damage, that threshold gets raised. What that means for you is that the pain goes away. You think the problem must be gone, when in reality, your body’s pain setting has been raised. Eventually, the only time you’re feeling pain is when you’re already in dire straits.” Think in terms of prevention. This is something dentistry definitely gets right, Butler says. Dental patients are encouraged to have regular checkups, whether they’re in pain or not, so the dentist can head off potential problems. “That’s the way it needs to be for neck and back pain,” he says. “Being free of symptoms doesn’t mean you don’t have major problems brewing. It just means that you don’t know they’re developing.” “We need to listen to our pain and fix whatever is wrong as soon as possible,” Butler says. “You won’t get better – permanently better – until you find the cause of the problem.” About Bradford Butler Bradford Butler, a chiropractor and author of The Blueprint for Back Pain Relief: The Essential Guide to Nonsurgical Solutions (www.drbradfordbutler.com), is owner and director of Oakland Spine and Physical Therapy.
