Sixth Annual Tucker’s Toy Run celebrates Life by giving toys
Dozens of motorcyclists cruised into the main parking lot of St. Luke’s University hospital in Fountain Hill on Nov. 5, 2016 as part of the sixth Annual Tucker’s Toy Run to deliver toys to be given to children who will spend the holidays in the hospital. –Photo by Lisa Boehm
Submitted by MARIELLA MILLER Dozens of Lehigh Valley motorcyclists took to the streets around noon on Nov. 5 as the Sixth Annual Tucker’s Toy Run again fulfilled its holiday mission: to bring smiles to children’s faces and to remember a beloved friend. Riders left the parking lot of the Tri-Boro Sportsmen Club in Northampton around noon and cruised into the main parking lot at St. Luke’s University Hospital in Fountain Hill just
before 1 p.m. “My friends and colleagues will tell you I am not often speechless, but I have no words to describe our gratitude for the generosity and kindness of the Tucker’s Toy Run riders,” Jennifer Janco, Chief of Pediatrics for St. Luke’s University Health Network, said. “The excitement of the event is something the children never forget.” As they arrived, some riders delivered toys to the pediatric Continued on page 4
Bath Museum is focus of Bath council meeting by KERI LINDENMUTH As the Borough of Bath plans to leave its current municipal building and potentially move to the Thirst Quenchers building on 121-125 S. Walnut St., whether or not the Bath Museum will follow suit was the topic of much of the Borough of Bath council meeting on Monday, November 7. Representatives and volunteers from the museum voiced their
opinions and concerns to councilmembers. However, members of council stressed they have no intention of getting rid of the historical museum. The primary focus right now is “where to put it…[and] at what cost,” said Council President Mark Saginario. The museum, he said, is “an asset to the borough.” However, a discussion must be had as to how exactly the borough
and museum can move forward while also considering the effect on taxpayers and funds. Council stressed that no decision has been made. Instead, they are currently engaged in an open dialogue. Councilwoman Carol BearHeckman broached the idea of the museum sharing space in the new municipal building. The much smaller space would enable the borough to save on utilities.
“[The museum is] a cultural asset. [We] need to hang on to things that are cultural assets… that give us meaning [and] uniqueness,” she said. The museum’s future is one that must be decided by council due to a reversionary clause. It was not and cannot be decided by public vote or referendum.
Rodite suggested bringing different forms of entertainment into the market, including musicians, bands and antique cars to increase the turnout at the Farmers’ Market. The market has previously brought in local bands such as Celtic Adventure to add to the
events, moves which Rodite said “added to the experience.” Other ideas included reaching out to the Northampton Area School District to get students involved in vending and other facets of the market, cross-promoting the Atlas Museum along with the Farmers’ Market and

VETERANS DAY 2016 IN MEMORY AND HONOR… During the past year, we have had the privilege of serving the families of Veterans. We are honored to be of service to them in their time of need, just as their loved one was there in our time of need. On Veteran’s Day, we pay tribute to those who served our country in the name of Freedom, the same Freedom that allows us to serve them. Our prayers are with all the Veterans, their families, and with the brave men and women serving our country today. We also wish to thank those from our area’s veteran service groups who volunteer their time in honor guards and firing squads bestowing the greatest honor for their deceased comrades. John R.

Your Children Need You Around my home I fancy myself as a sage of sorts, filled with much wisdom and discernment and always willing to share said fanciful knowledge with my growing children. When my children were much younger, I would boldly assert each morning that I was leaving to go “slay some dragons.” My tie was magical, I wore X-ray glasses, and of course, my shoe had a hidden phone in it. They would clap and cheer and send me on my way. My arrival home was welcomed with the usual ritual of bending down on my knee to take turns catching my girls who would run at me with reckless abandon and a little boy closing the rear, lifting them up into the air. Life was good then; it still is, just different. Nowadays the conversation has

Perhaps change their diet, assist with exercise programs, educate on all the situational possibilities, and allow them to roll their own dice. On occasion, as you might expect, the situation necessitated disciplinary action ranging from simple grounding, taking Continued on page 4

much more God feels for all of us. It is mind blowing if you ponder it. Just this week my eldest called me from college, concerned over a few things. She is trying to balance her work and school, concerned over an upcoming test, and how she mistakenly parked her vehicle where she shouldn’t have, and it was towed with an enormous fine. I listened, all the while biting on my lip to keep quiet. I told her she never should have left Neverland. She laughed through her tears. We talked for a time and while I wouldn’t want to bore anyone with the details, suffice to say that at the end, before we parted ways, I told her that I loved her, I was so proud of her that she belonged to me. I also told her, “Today is a good day to have a good day. Now go slay your dragons.” She let out a small roar and giggled. It’s a good life. My best to you.

Yes, they have climbed the mountain, found me sitting on my perch, and waited the greying wolf ’s advice, ruling, and more. I truly wish it were that easy. The gist of this all is that your family needs your input. We are going to get it wrong sometimes, perhaps a lot more than just sometimes. Yet our children need to know that we love them unconditionally, that they are honored, and we as parents desire good things for them. From my perspective, and above all else, they need to know who they are and to whom they belong. If they know that, then I can send them out into this chaotic world knowing they do not go alone. I feel strongly about a father’s role in the family. The presence or lack thereof can make or break Continued from page 1 generations.

at the get-go as something they [are] concerned about.” Also on the agenda for the night was the motion to adopt amendments to the borough’s Snow and Ice Control Policy, which would put in place new plowing and spreading procedures for trucks, and new snow recovery plans. The 2017 annual budget and the 2017 schedule of fees were also passed, while an ordinance retaining the borough’s real estate tax for 2017 was also adopted. In his report, Emilio DeNisi, Borough Fire Chief, urged residents to remember to change the batteries in their smoke alarms, something that should be done every time the clocks are changed. Borough Manager Bradford Flynn also made note that residents will be able to pay their sanitation bills online in 2017. They will be able to set up an online account where they can pay quickly. The borough is also working to implement a check platform online so residents can conveniently pay their sanitation bill online with a check. Finally, Mayor Fiorella Mirabito encouraged residents to participate in this year’s Greenlight a Vet. On Veteran’s Day night, residents can show their support for our nation’s veterans by lighting their porch with a green light bulb.

Additionally, representatives from Omega Homes went before council to notify them of their plan to connect with the borough’s sewer system.

unit inside the hospital, while others placed toys one-by-one in cribs set up in the parking lot. Some children who were well enough to step outside into the crisp autumn air with their parents joined the festivities in the parking lot. Toys are used to brighten the smiles of children who must be hospitalized during the holiday season. Each year the friends and riding companions of the late Tucker Stuart celebrate his life and memory by organizing Tucker’s Toy Run. Stuart, an avid motorcyclist, died in a motorcycle accident in 2011. The event was organized by Rick Nauman, to honor his friend’s memory.

Humble Gratefulness
Gratefulness springs from humility—ingratitude from pride. The dictionary defines gratefulness as "appreciation of benefits received." Gratefulness is recognizing the benefits which God and others have provided. The grateful person feels a great sense of unworthiness, "I have so much more than I deserve," which reveals a humble heart, but the ungrateful person feels, "I deserve so much more than I have," which exposes a proud heart. It was the beautiful character trait of humble gratefulness that so attracted Boaz to Ruth in Ruth 2:10, "Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in thine eyes, that thou shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger?" A grateful heart is conscious of God and others, while an ungrateful person is self-centered. Grateful people see the needs of others, but ungrateful people tend to focus on "my need," "my feelings," "my hurts," "my desires," "how I have been treated, neglected, failed, or wounded." An ungrateful person is proud—full of himself; his whole world revolves around himself. He seldom pauses to consider the needs and feelings of others. Haman is an example of this in Esther 6:6, "And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, to whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?" As a result of this preoccupation with self, ungrateful people are typically "graspy" and demanding, bent on gratifying themselves. On the other hand, grateful people are free to be "giving," loving, and caring, with a desire to bless others. Humility is the catalyst for a grateful heart from which flows thanksgiving!

Jake from State Farm “Good morning, I’m Jake the Chef, just like Jake from State Farm. How are you?” “I’m good, you?” “I’m blessed and I hope I can bless you today. How can I serve you today? I have omelets, eggs any way, I have crab, mushrooms, spinach, bacon, salmon, sausage and more.” “I’ll have a crab, mushroom and spinach omelet.” “Ma‘am, would you like it cooked medium or well done?” “I’d like it well done.” “So, how is your day going?” “Good, thanks, you?” “I love my job and I love to make people smile, it doesn’t get better than that. Your omelet is ready.” “Thanks!” Then, when it slowed down he walked over and said, “How’s the omelet, is there anything else I can get you? By the way, I tried something new with the bacon. I have found that people like bacon three ways - nice and crispy - medium well done and somewhat undercooked. So I arranged the bacon from crispy to somewhat undercooked. What do you think of that?” Well, I like crispy so I really liked that, something simple becomes something special as I watch the crowd loving the way he set up the bacon. Every single person who came in got the exact same treatment. “Hi, I’m Jake I prepared this food for you, you know like Jake, from State Farm.”
What a guy. I left a nice tip in his tip jar and told him I appreciated his friendliness, not to mention the delicious omelet.
What can small businesses learn from Jake, like Jake from State Farm?
1.
You can’t fake this- he was sincere.
2.
He truly became a mini rock star with the crowd with his bacon presentation.
3.
Everyone he encountered left feeling valued.
4. His perkiness was conta-
gious.
5.
His attentiveness made you feel like you were his only customer.
6.
He was not only attentive, but a great chef, too.
7.
He recovered nicely from getting yelled at right in the middle of his performance. I forgot to mention that the
bowls of veggies, meats and cheese were pristine. Suddenly, the other woman working with him pulled him in the back room to scold him. I could barely hear it but I’m thinking she may have been jealous of the way customers were reacting to him. When he came out of the room he was clearly shook up. I said, “Chef Jake, like Jake from State Farm, thank you for your friendliness and your ability to share your cooking skills. You are a breath of fresh air.” Whether it’s Jake from State Farm or Chef Jake, both are memorable and leave a lasting impression.

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip Another sign that Christmas is fast approaching – the Governor Wolf Historical Society’s first house for their December tour was in the paper last week. It was the Daransky home. Don’t know where it’s located, but it looks very close to the Wolf Academy style. So, more will follow as they usually have six or seven homes that weren’t shown before. The year sure has flown by fast, probably no faster than other years. But it seems that way, the older you get. . . . Boy, did I get that wrong on the managers of the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians last week. I know it was late when I penned it, but even Elmira knew better when she saw it later. Congrats to the Cubs for winning their first World Series since 1908, and it was Joe Maddon, the manager originally from Hazleton and a Lafayette College grad, who led the team on to victory. Cleveland’s Indians lost the Series after a three to one lead in games. I know I was sticking for them earlier in the American League playoffs ‘cause Terry Francona was a past manager for the Phillies, but that ended when they played the Cubs, who deserved it after winning 103 regular season National League games. That seventh game was a gem to remember!! . . . . Ed Pany’s column on Chapman Quarries was, too. The borough fathers oughta pin it on their meeting room wall. . . . There was a really nice event over in Northampton this past Saturday, when bikers gathered at the Tri-Boro Sportsmen’s Club with loads of toys and went all the way over to St. Luke’s Hospital in Fountain Hill to deliver ‘em to sick kids who might not be getting home for Christmas. It was called Tucker’s Toy Run, named in honor of the life of Tucker Stuart. It was the sixth time the bikers have done it. Hats off to all of ‘em!! . . . .I finally found out why we didn’t have any elec-
tric most of the day last Monday. Seems like a trucker didn’t lower his dump section and it dragged a bunch of wires down. It reminded me of the time years ago when the same thing happened in Bath and the truck caught the railroad bridge just outside of town and it came down on him and killed him. . . .Ye Ed tells me that the old-time picture in last week’s paper looks an awful lot like his parents’ stationery store that they had on west Main Street in town. . . . Presidential candidates are winding down in a flurry of rallies tonight (Monday), so we’ll see who voters picked on Tuesday. . . .I hear Willard Kulp was in the hospital for some ailment, but is home now recovering. Glad to hear that. . . . Sorry, Jen, Ye Ed’s not gonna wear his South Carolina T-shirt. Too cold. Wait ‘till spring or summer. . . .Nothing like good, hot soup on a cold day. I hear one local guy had his mouth watering for the home-made clam chowder that the Emmaus Lions have, and also the chicken corn chowder that the folks at Bushkill Methodist Church had on Saturday. Only thing is he waited too long, and missed out on both of ‘em as they were sold out! . . . .Elmira wants me to beat a few rugs before I go out and rake leaves so they don’t get dusty again. Have a great week, and let’s hope our country survives all that went on at election campaigning. See ya!

$18,000 on the township’s current loader for the 2013 loader. The overall consensus was that the loader with over 7,000 hours was too much of a risk for the
township to take on and that the value of the 2013 loader was too good to pass up. Vice Chairman Daniel Piorkowski was hesitant to move forward, calling for further research into the matter, but with winter months looming ahead, Gable and Tashner moved to pur-

chase the 2013 loader at a price of $121,000. In other business, Tashner noted that heaters were purchased for the public works garage, and that the installation of the third heater was currently ongoing. The Klecknersville Rangers Volunteer Fire Company reported that there were 24 fire calls in October with 195 man hours recorded as well as 44 ambulance calls with 176 man hours recorded. The board also motioned to allocate funds to the Land Preservation Board for two projects, which plan to preserve a total 32 acres of land. Solicitor David Backenstoe said he was amending the Open Space Plan, Act 115 of 2013 to expand upon the purposes of which funds can be used in regard to open space projects. Backenstoe also said he has drafted an ordinance lifting the ban which prohibited members of the Environmental Advisory Council and Land Preservation Board from serving on both committees. The Board of Supervisors recently approved the matter due to declining involvement in both boards. Residents of Glase Road addressed the board, calling for maintenance to their street, which they say has been neglected for a long period of time. The board said they had previously allocated their resources toward East Best Road, which they believed needed repairs more. Piorkowski said more can be done to address issues with roads, including calling special meetings to assess what areas need attention. The next Moore Township Board of Supervisors meeting will be held on Tuesday, Dec. 6 at 7 p.m.

“It’s a Wonderful Life” at Northampton Area High School Submitted by ERICA BELOVICH Based on Frank Capra’s classic film, Doug Rand’s adaptation of “It’s a Wonderful Life” remains true to its beloved origins. Starring veteran NHS senior actor Nick Longenbach in the role of George Bailey, made famous by Jimmy Stewart, with fellow senior Maya Costanzo starring as his wife Mary, this year’s NHS Theatre Company’s fall produc-
tion promises to be an audience favorite. The story follows disillusioned George Bailey, as his guardian angel Clarence helps him learn the true value of his ordinary existence. The play brings back all of your favorite characters, from Bert the cop to Ernie the cab driver, to the beloved Uncle Billy and Mr. Martini with his brood of children and even the goat. The play

Submitted by KATHLEEN UNGER The Class of 1956 of NAHS held its 60th class reunion at Green Pond Country Club on Wednesday, Oct. 19 with 36 classmates attending. Together with spouses, a total of 58 attended the affair. We enjoyed a lovely luncheon and had plenty of time to reminisce about our days in school. We remembered our teachers, especially Elizabeth Sloat, Jake Knecht, Jumbo Kostenbader, Squeeky Felver, Guy Kump and Quentin Zell. It’s hard to believe it has been 60 years since we strolled the halls of Nazareth Area High
School. The Class of 1956 had the distinction of being the first class to graduate from the “new” senior high school building. We started the classes on October 3, 1955 because construction of the new building was not completed by the proposed starting date of September 7. The gym was unfinished so sporting events were delayed until the second semester. We carried our lunch for the first semester because the cafeteria was not ready for food preparation. There were no after school sports that year because the fields were unfinished. We ducked under ladders, walked around scaffolding and tolerated the smell of new paint for most of the first

It was a chance to pay a special tribute not only to the Northampton County soldiers who returned from Vietnam, but also to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice (Pennsylvania lost 3,147 soldiers in Vietnam) and the many other local Vietnam War veterans who have departed this world over the past several decades. Assistance With Heating The state’s Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program is now accepting applications for home heating assistance grants. LIHEAP is a federally-funded program that helps individuals and families pay their heating bills through home heating energy assistance grants. It also provides crisis grants to help in the event of an emergency or if a resident is in danger of losing his
three months. We grew up in an innocent time before television, penicillin, frozen foods, Xerox, contact lenses, Frisbees and “the pill.” We did not know about drugs, computers, CDs, RVs or SUVs. We were before computer dating, daycare centers, group therapy, gay rights and nursing homes. We never heard of tape decks, artificial hearts, yogurt or guys wearing earrings. We could buy things for five and ten cents at G.C. Murphy’s 5&10 store. The corner drugstore sold ice cream for a nickel and for five cents, you could make a phone call, buy a Coke or enough stamps to mail a letter. or her heat due to broken equipment, lack of fuel or termination of utility service. The income eligibility guidelines for LIHEAP are set at 150 percent of the federal poverty level income. For an individual, the income limit is $17,820; for a couple, the limit is $24,030; and for a family of four, it is $36,450. Residents may apply for LIHEAP online or by contacting the Northampton County Assistance Office at 610-250-1700. For additional information or to apply online, please visit www. RepHahn.com, and go to "Shopping for Energy" on the left navigation bar. Medicare Part D Assistance – The open enrollment period for prescription drug coverage under Medicare Part D runs until Wednesday, Dec. 7. A representative from the Northampton County Area Agency on Aging will visit my Bushkill Township district office every Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., beginning this Tuesday and running until Tuesday, Dec. 6. The representative will help Medicare beneficiaries understand their insurance benefits and coverage, compare Medicare prescription drug plans, and complete the Part D application.

Governor Wolf Historical Society Christmas House Tour
Fairman Home Submitted by BARBARA WIEMANN When the homeowners bought their home in October 2006, they were excited about moving in. They knew the house was old, but how old was left to be determined. During renovations they uncovered building techniques from the 1700s; clay and horsehair still hold most of this place together. They started renovations in the summer kitchen (which is now an office), replacing the roof, which was completely gone, and rebuilding the walk-in fireplace that was crumbling. From that point, they have been working on one room at a time, doing most of the work themselves with the help of a good friend who is a ma-
son. They have removed dry wall to expose the logs and removed carpeting to show the beautiful hardwood floors. Completely moving the kitchen to another part of the house gave the homeowners a larger cooking area. Many of their friends and family thought they were crazy to take on such a job…but they wouldn’t trade this house for a mansion. From sitting on the front porch, to listening to the owls and running water of the Bushkill, to having a campfire in the back yard, they love it all. They have always wanted to live on a little farm and now they have it even though at many times they share this home with the “old residents from the past.”
Truck accident knocked Out power to hundreds by HOME NEWS STAFF A dump truck knocked down utility poles and wires early Monday morning, October 31 that left almost 1,600 customers without electrical power for most of the day. Unknowingly, the driver had not closed the dump bed and it caught the wires along Rt. 512 at about 6:30 a.m. Poles and wires were ripped down, along with transformers. Rt. 512 was closed for an extended period of time between Dell Road and Community Drive, while Met-Ed workmen could make repairs.
Met-Ed said that an estimated 962 customers were affected by the power outage in Moore Township, 375 in Bushkill Township, and 26 in Bath at 8:30 a.m. and more than 1,600 by 11 a.m. Power went on and off during the day, and a Home News writer couldn’t use his computer until 2:45 p.m. Another Moore Township man said his power was off until almost 5 p.m. The driver was not identified, but no one was hurt in the crash, according to the Northampton County emergency dispatch supervisor.

director of music ministries at the Lutheran Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, will present an organ recital. The two churches are but five minutes of each other, making it easy to enjoy both events.
National Museum of Industrial History To celebrate Veteran’s Day with Special exhibit and programming submitted by GLENN KOEHLER Join the National Museum of Industrial History in celebrating Veteran’s Day weekend with a special exhibit and companion programming honoring our veterans and the workers of Bethlehem Steel. November 2016 marks the 75th Anniversary of the Bethlehem plant of Bethlehem Steel Corporation receiving an “E” for Excellence Award from the U.S. Navy for the plant's efforts in war-related production. Significantly, the Bethlehem plant received this award prior to the formal US entry into World War II, which was already ongoing in other parts of the world. The award was highly recognized at the plant in 1941 with a major “E” pennant award ceremony, parade, and presentation of an “E” award lapel pin to every BSC employee in Bethlehem. The “E” for Excellence Award Exhibit will feature an original “E” pennant, the “E” award lapel pin, the original program from the award ceremony as well as various photographs and ephemera related to the award and Bethlehem Steel’s role in World War II. In addition to the special exhibit, on Friday the museum will host a lecture with author and historian Don Young discussing the wartime production at the Bethlehem Steel plant as well as a film screening of Shipways, an original 1945 16mm film about Bethlehem Steel’s ship-
building division with National Railway Historical Society Film Archivist, Mitch Dakelman. On Saturday, families will be able to participate in a special family workshop and create their own “E” pennant and participate in a WWII artifact show and tell.

Something new along the D&L Trail Submitted by NANCY THATCHER If you are heading out for a brisk fall walk or bike ride, look for the informative signs that
Lehigh Township Rails to Trails has recently installed along the Delaware and Lehigh Rail Trail. They can be found along the trail between Slatington and the Cove
Road Trailhead. One has been placed by the refurbished concrete phone booth and the other nearby, by the remains of the 3 Mile Dam. Both signs use pho-
tos and text to tell local history relating to the railroads and canal that ran along the river. Learn what the use of the phone booths
was. Have you ever seen any other booths along former railroad beds? The 3 Mile Dam, like many others that once spanned the Lehigh River, had more than one purpose. Do you know what they were? We are always looking for people who enjoy the outdoors to join our group and participate in our activities. Our next meeting at the Lehigh Township Municipal Building will be the third Thursday in January at 7 p.m. For additional information, visit our Facebook page or call 610-7670676.
Happy Veterans Day!
