The former and longtime business banker not only has a passion for public service, for years he’s taken action coordinating business mixers, sponsoring a number of events (including the Who’s Who Awards Dinner), volunteering at food drives, and advocating on behalf of small businesses to get them the essential resources they need to be successful in the city. “Albert is a pillar in the Rialto community. The seniors at I-HElp IE Serving Seniors are so indebted to him. He’s been instrumental to the success of the organization for many years,” said Maricela Soliz Ferguson, I-HElp IE Serving Seniors. When asked what his favorite small business or organization in Rialto is, Calderon lit up and quickly responded with I-HElp IE Hunter took photos with his dad David Hunter, the Board of Education, RUSD Superintendent Dr. Cuauhtémoc Avila, Milor High School Principal Kyla Griffin, Jeremy Whisman, Milor High School teacher, and Phillip Black, Manhood Project founder, before taking his seat next to the Board members. The 17-year-old has three sisters and lives with his parents, David and Togetta Hunter in the City of Rialto.

The awards ceremony was emceed by Rialto Unified School District Communications/Media Services Agent Syeda Jafri and featured Keynote Speaker Dr. Daniel Walker. “We have accomplished a lot over the past year: defeating Donald Trump, defeating Governor Gavin Newsom's recall, electing President Joe Biden and the first woman of color Vice President Kamala Harris. Despite these successes, the last administration showed me how imperative it is to ensure our voice is heard on every level,” said Rialto Democratic Club President Daphne A. Hawkins. For more information, visit rialtodemocrats.org. phere. “Milor High School was just a better fit for me,” he said. “It’s a smaller campus, and I needed that close family atmosphere.” While Hunter has already achieved great success in his final year of high school, he also has an eye on the future. After high school, Hunter plans to follow in his father’s footsteps and enlist in the United States Marine Corps. Hunter’s future aspiration is to start his own business in commercial websites.

Aguilar introduces bipar tisan bill to honor
R
for mer Rep. Jer r y L ewis
ep. Pete Aguilar introduced the Jerry Lewis VA Clinic Act, legislation to rename the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Loma Linda VA clinic in Redlands after former Congressman and San Bernardino County native Jerry Lewis, who passed away earlier this year. Lewis served as Chairman of the Veterans Affairs, Housing and Urban Development and Independent Agencies Appropriations Subcommittee before serving as the Chairman of the full House Committee on Appropriations, where he helped secure billions of dollars in federal investments for the VA. “Jerry Lewis was a giant in our community and dedicated his life and career to serving San Bernardino County. As a member and eventual Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, Jerry was a vocal advocate for federal investment into our region, and never stopped fighting for veterans’ access to the highest quality health care and services. I’m proud to introduce this legislation to memorialize and honor Congressman Lewis for his lifetime of dedicated service,” said Aguilar. Rep. Ken Calvert, who served in Congress with Jerry Lewis, is an original cosponsor of the bill. Both Aguilar and Calvert serve on the House Appropriations Committee, the committee responsible for providing funding for federal agencies and programs. “Throughout his distinguished career in public service, my friend Jerry Lewis worked tirelessly for those he represented, especially our veterans, and I believe it’s a

I want to thank my Inland Empire colleague, Rep. Aguilar, for sponsoring this bill and working with me to recognize the lasting impact Jerry Lewis had on our region, state and country,” said Rep. Calvert. In response to the news of the bill’s introduction, the Lewis family shared the following statement:
“Jerry spent his life advocating for our community, and we’re thrilled to see him honored in this way. We’re grateful to all of his former colleagues in the House of Representatives for helping preserve his legacy of service here in San Bernardino County and continue his great work on behalf of our Veterans.” The Jerry Lewis VA Clinic Act is now pending before the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs.

Tumultuous 2020 provides inspiration to Redlands ar tist John Andrews By Eric Sandoval
R
edlands rock artist John Andrews released his 4track EP All Saints this past April on all music platforms. “I got the inspiration for this album from the personal challenges of the pandemic, as well as seeing what society has had to go through over the past year,” shared Andrews. Andrews’ first track, What Makes You So Sure?, sets the mood for the album with a catchy hook throughout the song. The theme of doubt is apparent, and the hook reinforces that feeling of having self-doubt. “I wrote the hook on a piece of paper, then I sat on it for a little and thought of the lyrical themes to go with it. As I wrote it out, I developed the idea of how a doubtful frame of mind can be lonely,” said Andrews. Andrews’ next song, Cracked, is focused on the challenges that come with mental health. In the opening line Andrews says, “All is good inside my mind”, but throughout the track it’s clear
there must be some soul searching to truly reach that feat. “In Cracked, I focus on the idea that for me everything is fine, but it isn’t. Sometimes you must lose your mind to gain it,” explained Andrews. His third track, Along for the Ride, has a bluesy theme that focuses on a tumultuous 2020. “This song has more urgency and speaks on how people don’t think for themselves, they just line up on one side and that’s it, we don’t treat each other the same,” shared Andrews. His title track and final song off the EP is All Saints. This song has an important meaning of working to be better and truly completes the theme of this EP. “The song was written years ago, a priest once told me that even saints are sinners, they just keep trying to be better. This song has an important message that we just need to keep working to be better,” explained Andrews. Andrews credits his inspiration for this project to what was hap-
pening in 2020, and feels this project is better than anything he’s done before because the inspiration wasn’t money or fame, but simply to express his feelings. “I haven’t made music since 2015, but after staying home and seeing what was going on in the world, I got that itch and inspiration again,” said Andrews. In his first project since 2015, Andrews captures a lot of what 2020 was and how a lot of society is dealing with the fallout. “When I was sequencing the songs out, they followed a common trend, which is a response to what we all endured in 2020. My last two tracks focus on us rising above to be our best and not feed into hate,” shared Andrews. All Saints captures the feeling of 2020 but doesn’t allow the listener to fall victim to a negative feeling, instead Andrews preaches the power of creating positive change. All Saints EP is available on all music platforms and the music video for the title track, All Saints can be found on Youtube.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may
be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 833-561-0243 for regarding the information trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site WWW.SALES.BDFGROUP.COM for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 00000008887572. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an "eligible tenant buyer," you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an "eligible bidder", you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 833-561-0243, or visit this internet website WWW.SALES.BDFGROUP.CO M using the file number assigned to this case 00000008887572 to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale. If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

San Ber nardino Symphony receives largest gift in its histor y
I
n its most compelling sign of resurgence since beginning to emerge from the COVID pandemic, the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra has received the largest gift in its history: $2 million. The donation, from the Paramo family, places the funds directly into the orchestra’s endowment. “We were overwhelmed with the generosity of this donation,” said orchestra board president Dean McVay, adding, “a gift like this will make it possible for us to positively impact more people than ever before.” Along with its 93-year history of orchestral music-making, the
Symphony is known for its collaborations with local schools, colleges, and community organizations to ensure unhindered access to the arts for all. They regularly perform free annual concerts for over 3,000 Inland Empire students. Even during the pandemic shutdown, they were able to provide a full digital concert as a gift to the entire San Bernardino City Unified School District. The $2 million boost to the endowment is exactly the scale of gift the orchestra has long sought as the cornerstone of a new endowment campaign. An endowment is money kept in perpetuity, kicking off investment income
each year used to offset operating costs. Gifts of this size are unusual for regional orchestras. The $2 million gift is the largest in dollar terms the San Bernardino Symphony has ever received, even outpacing a generous $1 million dollar bequest by former Board member Frank Plash in 2007. The gift has already been paid to the orchestra, and comes with no conditions for spending it on specific activities, said McVay. As part of the Symphony’s established endowment, this gift will provide an additional $100,000 each year to augment ticket income and annual giving to cover
an operating budget that will be roughly $1 million this upcoming season. “This gift is a major vote of confidence in the musicians of the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra, our incredible board and staff, and in the direction we’re moving as we expand the size, scope, and community outreach of this organization,” said Music Director Anthony Parnther. Orchestra piccoloist Kathleen Dyer, chair of the musician members’ committee, said the “gift is so uplifting because it means our work matters, that the arts matter.”
“I think this amazingly generous gift recognizes that what the PHOTO RICARDO TOMBOC SBSO contributes to art and culFrom left: Orchestra Board President Dean McVay, SBSO Executive Director Dr. Anne Viricel, ture throughout the Inland Empire is something worth valuing,” and Music Director Anthony Parnther.
added San Bernardino Symphony executive director Dr. Anne Viricel. Symphony leadership is now working toward expanding the endowment further and has each pledged to include the organization in its own long-term planning. “We cannot ask others to help sustain our future if we are not willing to do so ourselves,” added McVay, “and the Symphony has been in my personal long-term plan for many years.” Concluded Parnther, “Our job as an orchestra is to create beauty and share it with our community. This gift makes it possible to enrich the city of San Bernardino and the Inland Empire even further. The future is tremendously exciting for the San Bernardino Symphony.”
