A Minute with The Mayor Page 8

By ED PANY Mr. Michael Haberle was reared in Nazareth, graduating from Nazareth High School in 1978, where he was co-captain on the Nazareth High School football team that won the 1977 Colonial League Championship.

He played both halfback and line backer. The team was coached by Jim Evanko. Mike also played centerfield for the baseball team.

Michael’s first job was with Highway Materials operating a loader, earning five dollars an hour. His cement career started two years later when he joined his brother Phillip at Lone Star Cement, starting in the labor department and later in the pack house as kiln burner.

In 1994 Essroc purchased Lone Star and Mr. Haberle joined the maintenance team where he works today, saying, “We have an 18-man maintenance team working throughout the plant, quarry and the grinding mills at plant #5, the old Lone Star plant. We attempt to have the plant operate in a safe and efficient manner.”

The excellent supervisors are Jack Santo, a 40-year veteran employee and Brian Jones. Two of the old-timers who shared their

knowledge with Michael are Les Taschner and George Reenock, former Northampton High School grads.

Each morning there is a brief safety meeting when various safety issues are discussed. MSHA, the federal safety agency, also conducts annual safety seminars at the plant.

Michael said, “I enjoy the physical and challenging aspects of my job. I have worked with many good employees in my 39 years at the plant.”

During his tenure at the plant, ownership has changed from Lone Star to Essroc in 1994 and then to Lehigh Heidelberg in 2017. A dedicated cement worker, he is a highly skilled and experienced employee.

Mr. Haberle has been married to the former Kerry Hand for 33 years. They are proud of son Ryan, a Lehigh employee, daughter Cailyn, stepdaughters Nicholle and Krista, and three grandchildren. Michael enjoys watching the Philadelphia Eagles and NASCAR. The Haberles reside in Nazareth. We wish Michael and all our Lehigh friends continued success at the Nazareth plant.

East Allen supervisors send letters of concern to Keystone Cement

By KERI LINDENMUTH After some East Allen Township residents received letters from Keystone Cement asking questions about their well integrity, concern has been high. Some residents approached East Allen supervisors at previous meetings to express their fears about well water drawdowns. It was later re-

vealed that Keystone is modifying its permits to drill deeper into the earth.

During their meeting on September 26, East Allen supervisors announced that letters of concern were sent to Keystone’s manager and environmental director, as well as the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental

Protection, the Bethlehem Water Department, and the Bath Water Authority. These letters ask representatives of Keystone and the DEP to hold a meeting with residents to answer questions about the drilling and permitting application.

Around 65 homes are in the zone of impact and guaranteed

to be de-watered. Hanover Engineering has assigned a geologist to review the plan.

Supervisors urged residents to call the DEP with any concerns or complaints, which will become official notes in the permit review.

“The more people that call and complain [the better],” said Supervisor Mark Schwartz.

Supervisors expressed concern for residents who have not been notified by Keystone.

TED’S ROOFING

“They know nothing about this,” said engineer James Milot.

Even though it is the responsibility of Keystone to notify residents of the news, the township also agreed to notify residents in the area of impact.

In other news, the township received a grant award to relocate the traffic signal mast arm at Hanoverville and Airport Roads.

This follows several incidents of tractor trailers hitting the signal in the southeast quadrant.

Video detection will also be added.

The township will be working with Telco Inc., pending concurrence with PennDOT.

of the Attorney General, the program offers an anonymous resource to students, teachers and community members through which they may report behavior perceived as threatening to an individual or a school entity.

The idea behind the Safe2Say program is simple—it is that our communities and schools are safer when everyone has the tools to identify and report suspicious behavior. By equipping everyone with these tools and encouraging them to “say something” before it is too late, we have the capability to help prevent innumerable incidences of violence and tragedy.

Since January 2019, more than

23,490 reports have been filed to the state attorney general’s office.

In addition to potential threats, the program received reports of issues such as bullying, anxiety, depression and suicide. The program’s confidential nature makes reporting suspicious behavior easier than ever before. Upon receiving an anonymous tip, the Safe2Say Something crisis center mobilizes to review, assess and process each unique report.

Marcia Hahn is dedicated to making our schools a safer, more secure environment for children to learn and grow, and am proud to recognize Safe2Say Something Week.

Summer Lunch Program 2019 results

Submitted by JEFF GEHRIS The Summer Lunch Program began its eighth year of operation this summer on June 12 and ended Aug. 23. There were 407 volunteer participants each week, Monday through Friday, during the 11-week program and each volunteer served between three and three and a half hours each day.

The volunteers came from 13 different churches or organizations in the Nazareth School District area. The volunteers prepared, bagged and distributed 4,075 lunches this summer.

The main emphasis for the Summer Lunch Program is to provide a free lunch for those children and youth who received

free or reduced lunches during the school year.

A secondary emphasis is for the seniors living in our area who live on a limited income. I am pleased to say that both the main and secondary emphases’ have been met.

The Nazareth Ministerium thanks all who have given their time to volunteer for this worthy program and to all the churches, organizations, businesses and individuals who have donated resources toward the Summer Lunch Program. Donations can be made to the Nazareth Ministerium and mailed to P.O. Box 315, Nazareth, PA 18064-0315.

All donations are acknowledged by mail upon receipt.

Drexel Heights water pressure Upgrades slated for spring 2020

By KERI LINDENMUTH After years of waiting, Allen Township residents in Drexel Heights will finally receive water pressure upgrades from the City of Bethlehem Water Department.

Township Manager Ilene Eckhart made the announcement during the board of supervisors meeting on Tuesday, September 24. She said permitting would be completed in the winter, with construction scheduled for spring and summer 2020.

Some supervisors expressed concerns about the timeline, since the City of Bethlehem will need approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to dig beneath a nearby creek.

The water line has been pushed away from Howertown Park.

Supervisor and Fire Chief Dale Hassler also requested that a fire hydrant be installed at Short Lane. Extra pressure, he said, will help with hydrant flow.

“I am glad to see that we are finally going to get those people [water pressure],” said Supervisor Bruce Frack.

Supervisor Larry Oberly was more hesitant.

“I do not want to count anything until those pipes are hooked up,” he said.

In other news, supervisors continued to discuss yard waste collection concerns. They will be exploring the costs and benefits

of curbside yard waste collection.

Supervisor Gerald Montanari asked that the township get prices for every option of yard waste collection available, from weekly to monthly to annually.

“Let us not fall into the same [issue] as the garbage [contract],” he warned.

While supervisors promised to research the issue, they stressed that they are not promising to adopt anything at this time.

Supervisors also discussed their concerns about the rear fire lane at the future Rockefeller warehouse site. The fire lane is currently made of gravel, making it difficult for fire trucks to access the property’s four rear doors.

Hassler asked that supervisors request the fire lane be made of macadam. He said he wants this requirement on all warehouse plans moving forward.

Solicitor Lincoln Treadwell said the request could legally be made to Rockefeller due to “safety, stability, and winter maintenance” concerns.

A letter will be drafted and sent to the developer.

Finally, supervisors approved the planting of meadow seed on the property of the Kreidersville Covered Bridge. The cost of the herbicide, meadow seed, and treatment is $3,895. Application of the seed will begin this fall, filling the area with lush natural plants and flowers.

Grow UR Biz Vote for new Leadership

The Green Bay Packers had the worst record in their 39-year history. The locker room was split with the offense and defense blaming each other for their losses.

The players liked their coach but he had no leadership skills.

The players were running the team and then…

The executive committee of the Packers looked to Vince Lombardi who was the fiery offensive mastermind of the champion team, the New York Giants.

The executive team of the Packers had the votes even though many members were against Lombardi. Twenty-six members voted for him and he won the vote. When Lombardi traveled to Green Bay in February to sign his contract, he outlined his football philosophy to the board: “A power offense built around the running game; a 4–3 defense; players who are in shape and will listen to what I say. If they don’t, they’ll be gone.” “I want it understood,” Lombardi told the shareholders, “I’m in complete command here.

I expect full cooperation from you. In return, you will get full cooperation from me. I’ve never been associated with a loser, and I don’t expect to be now.”

True to his word, he sent 16 prima donnas packing, including trading the Packers’ best receiver to the Cleveland Browns for three players who would become defensive stalwarts. Lombardi was a terrific judge of talent. He brought out the best in those same players who went on

to become Hall of Famers including Bart Starr, Forrest Gregg, Paul Hornung, Ray Nitschke, Jim Ringo and Jim Taylor, as well as future All-Pros Jerry Kramer, Ron Kramer, Max McGee, Bill Forester and Dan Currie.

“I’m going to find 36 men who have the pride to make any sacrifice to win. There are such men. If they’re not here, I will get them. If you’re not one, you might as well leave right now.”

In business, when you are on a losing team, some recognize it, some deny it and some know what needs to be done to win.

The leader/president/chairman plays the most significant role in change. Some people only change when staying the same becomes way too difficult.

Here are six ways to implement change on a losing team 1. First and foremost, find a new leader with strong skills.

2. Learn from the past don’t dwell on it.

3. Take risks, greatness is not possible without it.

4. Sometimes team members who cannot embrace the future must go.

5. Leaders need to surround themselves with people who get them and their vision.

6. You need votes to make significant change.

“Perfection is not attainable,” Lombardi believed, “but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.” The 1959 Packers finished 7–5 and Lombardi was named Coach of the Year. Lombardi led the team to five NFL Championships in seven years and won two Super Bowls in 1966 and 1967. Today, millions of people worldwide view the Super Bowl, and the winner of that game is always awarded the Lombardi Trophy.

Leadership matters, change is impossible without leadership, at the end of the day every vote counts. *Greg Bustin

Stories From My Heart

by Cynthia Snyder-DeLuca An Angel Here, An Angel There

I believe in angels. I believe in heavenly angels, and I think in earthly angels. I believe that heavenly angels are sent by God to remind us of his neverending love and to watch over us. I believe that earthly angels were created by God as an extension of His love to help us with our daily lives.

Heavenly angels...

I believe that heavenly angels are closer than we think. I believe they walk with us every day and are always ready to help us. We might not be able to see them, but they are there.

I have been thinking a lot about the heavenly angels, especially with all the school shootings, the innocent men, women, and children caught in the line of fire in their hometowns, and those who have died from drug overdoses, not to mention all those who passed from illnesses or those who no longer had the will to live.

My heart is heavy for all the beautiful families grieving the loss of their loved ones. Sometimes when I close my eyes, I picture an army of beautiful heavenly angels, holding precious souls close to their hearts as they start their journey to heaven. I can almost hear them singing softly as each soul and angel fly high, reaching heaven's gates.

Through the gates, rainbows abound, flowers more vibrant than we could ever imagine, birds singing and love and happiness flows. A place where there is no pain, and everyone is safe and loved. There the heavenly angels wait for their next assignment. They wait patiently with love while watching over our loved ones Continued on page 11

Lehigh Hanson Set to acquire Keystone Cement In $151 million Deal

by HOME NEWS STAFF In a press release sent out Friday, Sept. 27, HeidelBergCement of Germany announced that its North American subsidiary, Lehigh Hanson Inc., has entered into an agreement to purchase Keystone Cement. The plant has a capacity of 1.1 million tons of cement per year. With a purchase price of $151 million, it is equivalent of about $137 per ton of cement.

"The acquisition of one of the most modern and environmentally sustainable cement facilities in the United States will further help Lehigh Hanson reduce its carbon footprint by safely substituting alternative fuels for tradi-

tional fossil fuels such as coal. In addition, we anticipate a number of operational efficiencies as a result of this transaction,” said HeidelbergCement Chairman of the Managing Board Dr. Bernd

Please remember, the opinions shared on this column - are solely mine, not of the administration of the Borough of Bath or The Home News.

There have been many changes in our Borough in the past few years and we look forward to only positive results from them. First, a new municipal building - an older building - reconstructed by 90 percent volunteer efforts. We are so incredibly proud of our building and have made it available to many organizations throughout the Lehigh Valley and beyond, to use for various meetings and semi-

nars. Secondly, the Bath Museum - another amazing project done by many dedicated volunteers, is housed in the new municipal building. The memories of "time gone by" adorn the walls of Council Chambers, with photos of those who came before us - an integral part in the formation of our Borough. The museum is open every third Saturday of the month and appointments are recommended for school or group visits to the museum.

Along with change, comes the more difficult portion of the "workings" of the Borough - the ordinances. The definition of "Ordinance” is: a piece of legislation enacted by a municipal authority. Since we don't have a local police department and now rely on the police services of the PA State Police (since July 2018) we, as a municipality, must enforce our ordinances. There has also been some frustration and confusion for a few. While some believe that some “changes” or "laws" sprung up overnight - it is certainly untrue. Many laws being debated recently have actually been in place for many years. The enforcement and treatment of local ordinances in years past gave the impression that certain actions were permissible, when in fact they may violate local law. Some examples of this would be adherence of 2-hour parking zones or obtaining a zoning permit prior to erecting a fence or shed. Many laws have remained the same, but now we are taking a more proactive approach with enforcement.

Lastly, as we stated before we began our police services with PSP we as a municipality are monitoring PSP on a daily basis. I remind everyone - the health, welfare and safety of every single resident and business owner of this Borough is first and foremost.

I continue to be so very proud of our Borough…and, realize there is so much more to be done here.

I urge you to assist - by voicing your concerns, asking questions, or offering constructive criticism, which will enable us to evolve and adapt to our rapidly changing surroundings. Remember - we're all in this together.

Lastly, there are many events coming up this month…stay tuned here in The Home News; on the calendar of the Borough website; and, on the Borough of Bath Facebook page.

on display. All of his quilts are intricately hand-stitched, the length between each stich precise. He learned to quilt from his grandmother at the age of nine, Schrantz said. Nearly seven decades later, he continues to bring to life the tradition his grandmother taught him.

Schrantz did not expect the popularity of the quilt show to grow as it has over the past several years. This year’s show gained more visitors in its first few hours than the event did in its entire first year. She is looking forward to a fifth quilt show in 2020.

“That we are even at year four

blew me out of the water,” she says.

She also has plans for a possible textile show, which she anticipates will be an even larger exhibit of hand-sewn items continuing to tell stories of family, tradition, and love.

Monocacy School 1907/1908

East Allen schools reunion-come and share Memories and photos Submitted by LINDA KORTZ Did you, your parents, or siblings attend one of the East Allen Township schools? Did you or a relative teach in these schools? Then you are invited to a schools reunion on Sunday, Oct. 27 from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Wolf Academy, 6600 Jacksonville Road, just off Rt. 512 south of Bath.

The Governor Wolf Historical Society is sponsoring this get together to give everyone a chance to reminisce and share their memories of the schools, teachers, and classmates. Everyone is encouraged to bring photos, schoolbooks, report cards, schoolwork, or any other documents that they have for show and tell.

The East Allen Township School District had five schools – the Monocacy School on Jacksonville Road, the Knauss School on Rt. 329 (now the township municipal building), the Steinmetz School on Colony Drive, the Union School on Rt. 248, and the Oxford (or Snyder) School at St. Peter’s Church.

The last three were oneroom schools that were sold in 1947 and are now residences.

After these schools closed, East Allen students in first through sixth grade attended the threeroom Monocacy School or the two-room Knauss School.

With consolidation and the establishment of the Northampton Area School District, the last two schools closed around 1962.

George Wolf, the seventh Governor of Pennsylvania, was educated in the 1700s Academy on the campus of The Governor Wolf Historical Society. Built by the ScotsIrish and PA Germans in the 1700s, they wanted their sons to have a better education.

In 1834, Governor Wolf was able to sign the Public School Act. All children in Pennsylva-

Local writer releases children’s Book on acceptance, family, and A lovable spider named Earl

by KERI LINDENMUTH When local writer Erin Rafanello Ferguson found live spiders in her family’s freshly cut Christmas tree, the idea for her children’s book was born.

“I named one of the spiders Earl and my family and I laughed about him all Christmas season long,” Ferguson says.

She soon drafted “Earl: The Christmas Tree Spider,” which tells the story of Earl the spider as he journeys from the forest to find a loving new home at Christmastime.

Ferguson sent her manuscript to over 50 publications.

After more than a year of anticipation and re-writing, Ferguson was close to giving up…until she received a big acceptance envelope from her current publisher. “[I] knew my journey as an author was about to begin,” she says.

Ferguson had never anticipated writing a children’s book. In fact, the local writer who has made a career covering arts and entertainment in the Lehigh Valley wanted to initially write a crime novel.

“But once this story presented itself to me, I started thinking about the joy children bring to us,” she explains.

Like Earl, Ferguson says there are far too many children searching for a loving home and family.

“Knowing that our country has so many children in foster care that are looking for…a loving home and a family to accept them as one of their own is simply heartbreaking,” she says.

With the publication of her book, Ferguson hopes to collaborate with Lehigh Valley Families Together to bring the area’s foster children joy during the holidays.

She wants the children who read her book to learn about hope, love, acceptance, and family.

“I hope they give the love they receive away to others as well,” she adds.

Ferguson says Earl’s adventure is far from over, with plenty of inspiration and encouragement from her children.

“I’m hoping to follow Earl on his journey through the holidays,” she says. “My daughter keeps talking about Earl’s friend Pete, so we shall see where that takes us.”

“Earl: The Christmas Tree Spider” is currently available at barnesandnoble.com and amazon.com. Ferguson

will be holding three book readings and signings: December 1 at Barnes & Noble in Center Valley at 10:30 a.m. (with a special appearance by Mr. and Mrs. Claus), December 7 at the Moravian Book Shop from 4 until 6 p.m., and December 21 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 4445 Southmont Way in Easton. Ferguson will also be at Camp Cake in Nazareth on December 7 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. where she will host a book reading, and afterwards children will be able to decorate cupcakes with little Earls and festive décor. Tickets will be available on Eventbrite.

“I love the holidays,” she says. “If I can spread positive messages for our children to grow up on…then I am really winning…we all are.”

Earthly angels...

We see earthly angels every day. I believe that God created ordinary men, women, and children to help us when our hearts are broken, and when we need someone to talk to, or when we just need a helping hand. Earthly angels always seem to show up at just the right time. They are the ones who knock on doors, the ones who know just when to call, and the ones who are always ready to listen. They are the ones that hug and the ones that encourage; the ones who will walk alongside those who need them.

Earthly angels are there when their hurting family or friends need hot meals or rides to doctor appointments.

They are the ones who sit with

&

a sick friend or wait patiently with those expecting news, whether good or bad. They are the givers of hope to those facing all kinds of life issues.

Sometimes, earth angels can be someone we meet just once, but make a significant change in our lives. They are the ones that smile and say, "Hello" when we least expect it. They may not even realize they are brought into our lives for a reason. But still, they show up.

Sometimes, earth angels are lifelong friends who God richly blessed us with. Friends who we know will always be there waiting, encouraging, and going that extra mile. God knew what he was doing when he created his angels. He made sure to create two kinds, heavenly and earthy; both to help those in need, both filled with compassion, hope, and love.

An angel here and an angel there, both beautiful gifts from God.

The Fatal Choice

Two Africans were paddling their dugout down the peaceful waters of the beautiful, blue Zambezi River. Suddenly there was a heavy thud and the dugout shook violently causing both men to lose their balance and fall into the water. Then a vicious crocodile surfaced. Both of the paddlers, now struggling in the water, knew they were facing death. One of the men remembered a village elder’s advice that if he were ever in a crocodile-infested river, he should swim under water, against the current, as the crocodile always looks downstream for his prey. This he did, and after some strenuous swimming he safely got to shore. The other man thought he would make better time if he swam with the current. Nearing the shore he touched bottom and quickly ran for the bank. He almost made it--but not quite.

The bloodthirsty reptile had been following him, and just a few feet from the shore it caught his leg and dragged him under water. That was the last the man was ever seen.

This is the mistake many are making with respect to their soul’s destiny. They are going with the current, taking the way of least resistance. In the end they will discover it has been a fatal choice. The Bible says, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” (Proverbs 14:12). God’s ways are often incomprehensible to our finite, human minds. God says, “as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts” (Isaiah 55:9). This is why the prophet Isaiah said, “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon” (v.7). God’s way of salvation is Jesus Christ. There is no other way (see www.naog.ws/theway.htm).

If you will admit your need of salvation, confess your sins to God, and receive Jesus into your heart by faith, you will be saved!

PORK & SAUERKRAUT DINNER

Upper Nazareth Police Host crisis Management Seminar

Submitted by MARK HERMAN On Sept. 24 the Upper Nazareth Police hosted an eight-hour training seminar on crisis management for school-based incidents. The training was provided by the Rural Domestic Preparedness Consortium and the University of Findlay. This training is certified by the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency-FEMA. The focus of this course is to educate and partner rural law enforcement, first responders, and the local school system. This class is designed to educate first responders and school staff on the elements that would allow for an effective response to a school-based emergency. Typically, rural schools, law enforcement, and other emergency responders are limited in resources.

It is therefore imperative that all the potentially affected parties collaborate on planning, preparing, communicating, responding, and recovering from the schoolbased incident. The safety and security of our community and our schools is important to everyone. Some of the topics presented included: Incident planning and preparedness, incident response, vulnerability assessment, and incident defusing and debriefing. By the conclusion of the day those in attendance were better prepared to effectively respond to a school-based incident. Those in attendance included: local school administrators and staff, school police, 911 dispatchers, ems personnel, local emergency management, and local law enforcement.

October 3-9, 2019 17

Members of the following organizations attended this training: Upper Nazareth Police, Nazareth Area School Police, Washington Township Police, Bushkill Township Police, Bangor Borough Police, Lower Saucon Police, Whitehall Township Police, Northampton County Emergency Management (911), Nazareth Area School District, Whitehall School District and Saint Janes School.

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual

by DR. GLENN CLEARIE, DC

Suddenly In Focus Crisis.

We all experience it or will while we are alive. It’s just that simple and it’s just that upsetting. I have yet to find someone that has been immune from all things human. Have you? In this week’s column I am looking to journey with you a bit as we discover together what may be a part of life that we really want no part of. This might not be an easy one for any of us.

Let me ask you, what are you currently struggling with? What have you struggled with in the past?

Do you have any idea what you may go through in the future? Much of what has blindsided me personally I wouldn’t have been able to predict nor foresee with absolute clarity-yet it did present itself as a major circumstance in my life.

The aftermath of which has been and can be brutal. Am I making sense? Does what I have said touch you in any way?

I have a dear friend that to this day he uses the phrase: “It’s time to circle the wagons…again.” I get the meaning behind that all too well. My mentor, who is over 91 years old, taught me much over many decades. One of the most powerful concepts he has taught and ingrained in me (and demonstrated to me for more than fifty years)

is to “stay at the top of the pendulum.” We try and try yet by golly, it’s difficult.

Looking back I can say that as crisis was taking place I went through various stages and emotional “variability” if you will; denial, anger, grief, frustration, loneliness, confusion, bitterness, and resentment come to mind. I would like to feel that I have moved on to a better place of contentment, happiness, understanding, forgiveness and all that but again, darn it, being human can be a challenge at times.

Never once have I shaken my fist at God for any of it.

In fact, these circumstances have driven me involuntarily to my knees and candidly lying prostrate on the floor. No other place I needed or wanted to be but right there. That’s where life and meaning of it takes on a whole new dimension.

Where the rubber hits the road, so to speak.

What have you learned or garnered from it all I wonder? There has to be some sort of take away from each Continued on page 20

LET’S GET SPOOKY

Continued from page 18

and every situation you have been in. A teaching moment on the physical, emotional or spiritual level. There has been for me each and every time.

I do not ask these flippantly.

What I see as a common theme across my experiences is that when faced with something of great magnitude, the real meaning of life, the truly important aspects of life, suddenly comes into a clear focus. The rest just dissipates.

At this very moment I find myself walking through another unforeseen and unprecedented circumstance that is really not much fun. I am trying to be polite as I say that. I have absolutely no idea how to take the lead on this. However, I do know, Who, with a capital W, does. I bet that you yourself may be or probably are going through, or just coming through something or another that is grinding and challenging you.

I remind myself this is not my first pony show. By merely glancing in the mirror and seeing my father looking back (as well as more gray hair), I know that this, these concerns will be in the past one day. I, like you, just need to breathe in….and….breathe out.

Through whatever is coming your way I encourage you to face it. I care about you so much, even if I don’t know you personally, that I am rooting for you. I say this because if the years have taught me anything it’s that at the end of the day, it’s love for one another that matters.

My best to you.
