Botelho won’t return as supe SUPERVISOR FOR AROMAS AND SJB SAYS HE WON’T SEEK RE-ELECTION Jaqueline McCool Reporter

Erik Chalhoub

Anthony Botelho, vice chairperson of the San Benito County Board of Supervisors, said he is not seeking re-election after 15 years on the job.

Botelho first won election to District 2 in 2004, after serving on the county planning commission, farm bureau, resource conservation district and chamber of commerce.

Botelho said he decided to leave public service so he could spend more time with his wife and family. He told the Free Lance that he wanted to give another candidate ample time to launch a campaign to take his seat, up for grabs in 2020.

District 2 covers Aromas, San Juan Bautista, Union Road Corridor and Mission Oaks.

Botelho said he’ll be close to 60 when his term is

HONORING THE FALLEN The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9242 Honor Guard salutes veterans buried at Calvary Cemetery on May 27.

Citizens pay tribute HUNDREDS HONOR FALLEN SOLDIERS ON MEMORIAL DAY Erik Chalhoub

Business Editor

Over the course of the country’s more than 240-year history, roughly 1.3 million Americans have died as casualties of war.

Memorial Day, observed on the last Monday of May, offers a chance to reflect on those who died defending this country.

On May 27 in Hollister, hundreds paid tribute to fallen soldiers during a ceremony hosted by the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9242 and American Legion Post 69 in front of the Veterans Memorial Building.

Memorial Day observance began after the Civil War and became an official federal holiday in 1971. But the day, which is unofficially designated as the beginning of summer, has become overshadowed by sales, barbecues and other get-togethers that miss the true purpose of

Memorial Day, said Assemblymember Robert Rivas, who was a guest speaker at the ceremony.

“This is a day to remember incredible sacrifice and authentic heroism,” said Rivas, a Democrat whose 30th District includes San Benito County. “Today we remember the men and women who died for us, who sacrificed absolutely everything.”

The ceremony included a 21-gun salute by the VFW Post 9242 Honor Guard. Before the ceremony, the VFW Honor

Guard visited the IOOF and Calvary cemeteries to pay homage to the veterans buried there.

Bernie Ramirez, captain of the Honor Guard, said its members all knew soldiers who were killed in action, “We are here to honor our fallen heroes,” he added.

Dale Barnes, who served in Vietnam as a sergeant with the Marines, said he knew a number of people buried at Calvary Cemetery, “We come here not only to honor people we went to school with, but also our fathers.”

Reporter

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra is accusing the Trump administration of “trying to exact political retribution” by pulling federal funds from the state’s High-Speed Rail project.

In a lawsuit filed May 21 in US District Court in San Francisco by the state of California against the Federal Railroad Administration and the US Department of Transportation, Becerra is seeking to prevent the withdrawal of nearly $1 billion in federal funding California’s High-Speed Rail project.

The lawsuit follows the Federal Railroad Administration's accusation last week that California’s rail authority “failed to make reasonable progress on the project.”

In its complaint, the state seeks declaratory and injunctive relief and charges that the federal government’s decision to pull the grant agreement “was precipitated by President [Donald] Trump’s overt hostility to California, its challenge to his border wall initiatives, and what he called the ‘green disaster’ high-speed rail project.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom threatened the legal action after the May 16 announcement pulling the federal funds. “Just as we have seen from the Trump administration’s attacks on our clean air standards, our immigrant communities and in countless other areas, the Trump administration is trying to exact political retribution on our state,” said Newsom.

“This is California’s money, appropriated by Congress, and we will vigorously defend it in court.”

In the lawsuit filing, Becerra cited Trump’s history of animosity toward the state as the reason he ordered the end of federal support for the $79 billion project.

The lawsuit mentioned that the state rail authority’s long relationship with the Federal Railroad Administration took a turn for the worse with Trump

STALLED IN TRACKS? Elimination of federal aid jeopardizes plans for High-Speed Rail, shown here in artist’s conception. administration. “In the last year … the FRA has stopped cooperating on the project, including refusing to process important environmental clearances, and to count hundreds of millions of dollars in state-funded expenditures toward California’s obligation to provide matching funds under the grant,” Becerra wrote in the complaint.

The complaint continued: “On Feb. 19, 2019—one day after California and 15 other states filed suit to invalidate President Trump’s declaration of emergency at the southern border—President Trump tweeted that the suit was led by California, ‘the state that has wasted billions of dollars on their out of control Fast Train, with no hope of completion.’ One minute later, he tweeted that the “failed Fast Train project in California . . . is hundreds of times more expensive than the desperately needed Wall.” Later that same day, in a curt, three-page letter, the FRA abruptly notified the authority of its intent to terminate the grant agreement.”

The two plaintiffs identified in the case are the state of California and the High-Speed Rail Authority. There are four defendants named in the complaint: the US Department of Transportation, DOT Secretary Elaine Chao, the Federal Railroad Administration and FRA Administrator Ronald Batory.

The complaint warns the loss of federal funding could cripple the project and portions of California’s economy. “FRA’s sudden decision to terminate the grant in violation of its own procedures and policies was arbitrary and capricious, an abuse of discretion, and contrary to law, and threatens to wreak significant economic damage on the Central Valley and the state,” Becerra wrote.

If the state were to obtain an injunction, the existing agreement between the Federal Railroad Administration and the High-speed Rail Authority would remain in effect until the lawsuit is resolved.

The High-Speed Rail project has been in the works since 1993, with California voters passing Proposition 1A in 2008 to authorize $9.95 billion in general obligation bonds for the project. The highspeed rail has never been fully funded.

In February, Newsom said in his State of the State address that he would be directing the authority to shift focus to the Central Valley line. This was addressed in the authority’s 2019 project update report along with the possibility that federal funding would be pulled from the project.

In addition to the $929 million the railroad administration has pulled, it also threatened to take back the $2.5 billion in federal funding already given to the project.

Farmers can build housing RIVAS INTRODUCED BILL TO EASE CONSTRUCTION OF FARM HOMES

Anthony Botelho

Botelho is optimistic about future

Staff Report

The state Assembly on March 24 approved legislation introduced by Assemblymember Robert Rivas that aims to make is easier for farmers to build family-friendly housing for farmworkers.

Submitted photo

The bill won with bipartisan support on a 59-11 vote in the Assembly, and will now be heard in the state Senate.

“California’s housing shortage has been particularly tough on farmworkers and their families,” said Rivas, a Hollister Democrat, in a statement. “As the grandson of a farmworker, I grew up in farmworker housing myself. I know how critical it is that the farmworkers who help feed us and contribute to our state’s economy have a safe and decent place to call home. AB 1783 provides farmworkers and their children an opportunity for a better life.”

Rivas, a Democrat from Hollister, represents the 30th Assembly District, which includes Gilroy, Hollister, Morgan Hill and San Juan Bautista.

The Farmworker Housing Act of 2019 creates a new streamlined process for farmers to partner with non-profit organizations to build high-quality farmworker housing on agricultural land. It sets quality standards to ensure that the new housing is “dignified and family-friendly,” and puts safeguards in place to protect the environment. The state’s financial support of farmworker housing will be focused on family-oriented projects rather than the

federal temporary guest worker program.

“I applaud my fellow Assembly leaders for their support of this bill and their commitment to addressing the critical lack of affordable housing in rural areas,” Rivas continued. “I look forward to [the bill] moving through the state Senate so we may begin to alleviate the overcrowding in farmworker housing and provide

farmworkers and their families the relief they desperately need.

“This bill is an important step forward, but it is just the beginning,” Rivas said, adding that it “lays the foundation for future legislation that will provide additional resources to build highquality farmworker housing.

Agricultural workers deserve a safe and decent place to live, just like every other Californian.”

Civil rights icon Dolores Huerta was on hand for the vote and praised the effort to build housing for California’s farmworkers. “I applaud Assemblyman Rivas for taking a bold stand to protect our farmworkers,” Huerta said. “He is right: Our farmworker communities are facing a humanitarian crisis. [This bill] can serve as the foundation of a broad movement to build housing for our workers.”

over, and with that he wants to take a new direction in his life.

“Being a supervisor is very demanding,” said Botelho. “Even from the time I started, the job has changed. I love every minute of it, but I think it’s time for maybe somebody step in.”

Board Chairman Mark Medina has worked with Botelho for nearly three years as a supervisor. Medina said he’ll miss working with Botelho and appreciated Botelho’s expertise. “I use him as a wealth of knowledge,” said Medina.

He added he admired that he and Botelho could have “constructive conflict.”

Medina said. “We can agree or disagree and walk away as friends.”

Botelho has some advice for whoever takes his position as supervisor. He said it was important to give “110 percent every day.”

“I am very optimistic for the future of the county,” said Botelho. “I think we’re far better off than where we were a few years ago, but I think there’s still a lot of work to do.”

State harasses journalists

L

et’s assume, hypothetically, that an independent journalist working in Washington somehow obtained a confidential FBI report on the death of a prominent Trump administration official that described its lurid circumstances, including the presence of a woman not his wife and the use of illegal drugs that caused, or at least contributed to, his demise.

Let’s also assume that the Justice Department responded to the disclosure by raiding the journalist’s home and confiscating computers and other tools of his trade, hoping to learn who leaked the report.

Democratic politicians and civil libertarians would erupt in outrage at a heavyhanded government act intended to discourage journalists from delving into areas that officialdom considered off-limits.

So where is that outrage about the San Francisco Police Department’s May 10 assault on journalist Bryan Carmody, who had obtained a police report about the death of San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Adachi under exactly those unbecoming circumstances?

Carmody sold the information to three San Francisco television stations, which is how freelance journalists make their livings, and it obviously tarnished the image of Adachi, who had been something of a heroic figure to those in the city’s left-leaning political culture.

They assumed that someone in the police department had leaked the report to Carmody to damage Adachi’s reputation in retaliation for his many battles with cops in court.

Whatever the motive, no one disputes the accuracy of the report. However, police were under political pressure to find the leaker and felt justified in conducting a paramilitary raid on Carmody’s home—the kind usually associated with gun-toting suspects.

In the aftermath, San Francisco Mayor London Breed, among others, contended that it was fully justified. She said police “went through the appropriate legal process to request a search warrant, which was approved by two judges.”

More than a week later, after the state’s

news media had condemned the action, Breed backtracked a little. She said that although she wanted a “thorough investigation” into the leak, “I am not okay with police raids on reporters. We need to do better.”

“However,” she added, “two judges issued the search warrant, and I have to believe that the judges’ decision was legal and warranted, and therefore so was the search. Whether or not the search was legal, warranted and appropriate, however, is another question. … And the more we learn, the less appropriate it looks to me.”

It was the sort of wishy-washy, have-itboth-ways positioning that makes ordinary citizens despise politicians.

Fortunately, not all city officials were as ambivalent. Supervisors Hillary Ronen, Aaron Peskin and Matt Haney criticized the raid, the latter calling it a “direct attack” on journalists.

District Attorney George Gascón was also critical.

What happened to Carmody is reminiscent of what happened when UC-Berkeley’s Investigative Reporting Program used California’s Public Records Act to obtain nearly 12,000 names of law enforcement officers or applicants who had committed crimes ranging from shoplifting to murder.

Those convictions themselves are matters of public record, and the compilation came via a PRA request from the Commission on Police Officer Standards and Training (POST).

Although a new law requires records of police misconduct to be made public, state Attorney General Xavier Becerra threatened legal, or even criminal, action against the Investigative Reporting Program.

Becerra demanded that the records be returned or destroyed, saying they shouldn’t have been released, and warned that “unauthorized receipt or possession” of the data is a misdemeanor.

We’ve come to expect harassment and even intimidation of journalists in places like Vladimir Putin’s Russia or Nicolas Maduro’s Venezuela, but in supposedly enlightened and liberal California?

All Animals Rescue & Friends is partnering with Finding Rover, a free service that uses patented facial recognition technology to help reunite lost dogs and cats with their families.

AARF is partnering with Finding Rover and will be sharing information about this exciting venture at Paws in the Park. Finding Rover is a free service that uses patented facial recognition technology to help reunite lost dogs and cats with their families.

Jenifer Lepow and Gwen Dorcich, co-founders of AARF, will be at Paws in the Park and would love to share information on this new partnership.

Because of AARF’s active presence helping to reunite lost and found pets in our community, when they find a pet, they will be able to snap a photo and use the technology of the Finding Rover app to help find the owner; the same applies if someone in our community loses a pet. This is another tool, in addition to getting your pets microchipped, that can help reunite pets with their families.

Additionally, people looking to adopt can see the dogs and cats that are available for adoption with AARF. AARF pets are all microchipped before they are adopted, and with their new partnership with Finding Rover, every dog and cat will also be pre-registered in the Finding Rover database.

Once the pet is adopted, the pet’s record can be automatically transferred to the adopters’ Finding Rover account as soon as the person who has taken the pet home registers with the email address on file. If that dog or cat ever gets lost in the future, using Finding Rover’s facial recognition will make bringing that pet back home a snap.

We highly encourage everyone to register with a personal Finding Rover account by going to FindingRover.com. It just takes a minute to help bring your pet home faster, and it's completely free!

This will only work if everyone is on board, so please join with AARF and get connected to the Finding Rover community.

Murder suspect Christopher Larios, who is accused of killing Raul De La Rosa in 2014, will next appear at San Benito County Courthouse May 30. The hearing is scheduled as a preliminary examination setting, according to Judge Steven R. Sanders.

Larios, 32, of Hollister, remains in custody in lieu of $1.05 million bail on a felony charge of murder, with an enhancement for the use of a firearm. He appeared for a brief hearing May 23 at the courthouse in downtown Hollister, handcuffed and wearing a jailissued jumpsuit.

Larios is accused of shooting and killing De La Rosa Dec. 23, 2014 on the 2000 block of Scenic Circle in southeast Hollister, according to police.

Police arrested Larios when he entered

the Hollister police station April 21, 2019, and told officers he wanted to make a statement about the 2014 murder. Detectives interviewed Larios extensively. Based on that interview, officers arrested Larios on suspicion of killing De La Rosa.

Police had previously ruled de la Rosa's death a homicide, but had not arrested or identified a suspect or suspects until Larios made his statement April 21. Officers have not released any details about Larios' motive or events leading up to the 2014 murder.

Residents of the neighborhood contacted May 23 said they were vaguely aware of the 2014 murder, but did not know anything about the victim or suspect, or the circumstances surrounding the crime. Two residents said the home where the

The suspect who allegedly shot and killed 19-yearold Ariana Zendejas in 2014 and hid out in Mexico the next four years will not face a jury trial until after June 13.

Jose Antonio Barajas appeared briefly for a hearing at San Benito County Courthouse May 23. Judge Steven R. Sanders delayed the hearing, which was scheduled as a trial setting session, to June 13.

Barajas is charged with murder and other felonies in relation to the shooting death of Zendejas on Aug. 1, 2014. Barajas was a passenger in a vehicle chasing another car

that had four occupants, including the male driver with whom Barajas had previously been feuding.

Zendejas was a passenger in the back seat of the vehicle that Barajas was chasing.

Barajas opened fire with a handgun on the victims' vehicle near B and West streets, hitting Zendejas with at least one of the bullets, according to police. The driver of the victims' vehicle drove Zendejas to Hazel Hawkins Hospital, where police responded shortly after the shooting. Zendejas was pronounced dead later that evening.

Barajas fled the area with the two occupants of the vehicle he was traveling in, and later left the country, according to police. He was arrested July 12, 2018, in Guadalajara, Mexico in

relation to the Hollister shooting. He was deported from Mexico and flown to San Jose, where he was transferred to the San Benito County Jail. Barajas remains in local custody as he awaits trial.

Barajas is also charged with three counts of attempted murder, kidnapping and shooting at an occupied motor vehicle. The charges were filed after an April 15 preliminary hearing, in which four Hollister police officers testified about their investigation into the 2014 shooting.

The charges against Barajas also include "special allegations" for his use of a firearm in the crime, according to court documents. If convicted, Barajas faces life in prison.

FRESNO SERVES UP FIRST ANNUAL GARLIC FESTIVAL

RUIZ, MUÑOZ RECEIVE $550 EACH

Jaqueline McCool Reporter

Is there room in the garlic game for two California cities? Fresno is coming after Gilroy’s garlic crown.

Gilroy’s official city motto is “The City with the Spice for Life” and it proudly proclaims itself “Garlic Capital of the World,” but there’s another city now claiming ownership of the cloves.

On May 28, the city of Fresno hosted its first-ever Garlic Festival, and is calling itself “the true Garlic Capital of the United States.”

“Attention Garlic Lovers! Are you ready for Fresno’s own Garlic Festival?” the California Fresh Farmers Market Association boasts on the event’s Facebook page. “Join the California Fresh Farmers Market Association for the inaugural and soon-to-be annual Fresno Garlic Festival!! Enjoy an evening celebrating the world’s most addictive spice—garlic!” “be a part of history— our taking back the crown as the ‘garlic capital of the United States! Fresno IS the true garlic capital of the United States— not Gilroy. Fresno County grows many times more garlic than any other county in the United States. It’s a fact!”

Gilroy has branded itself on the special spice, hosting the three-day Garlic Festival in late July for the last 40 years.

Peter De Young, executive director of the California Fresh Farmers Market Association and the founder of the Fresno Garlic Festival, promises the Fresno festival is not meant to rival Gilroy’s historic garlic weekend.

De Young believes there’s enough of a garlic craving to support two festivals in the state. He said he’s been a fan of the Gilroy festival and

COMPETITION HEATS UP Fresno is all fired up to claim ‘Garlic City’ mantle from Gilroy, which hosts its annual festival, shown here, in July. wants to bring the same energy to the residents of Fresno.

“We’re not looking to step on anyone’s toes,” said De Young. “We’re not looking to belittle Gilroy.”

The Gilroy Garlic Festival has been designated the World’s Largest Garlic Festival in the Guinness Book of World Records. Bryan Bowe, director of the Gilroy Garlic Festival, said last year’s attendance was 80,000.

Bowe shared De Young’s sentiment, that there is enough garlic love to go around. “I think the more communities that are celebrating garlic, the better. I’m glad that Fresno is spicing things up,” said Bowe.

Ken Christopher, executive vice president of Christopher Ranch, didn’t mince words when defending Gilroy’s standing as the Garlic City.

Christopher Ranch processes and

ships 100 million pounds of garlic annually.

“Christopher Ranch is the country’s largest garlic grower,” said Christopher.

“At any given time, Gilroy, California is home to the North American continent’s largest home for garlic.” He said he wished the Fresh Farmers Market Association had reached out to Christopher Ranch to do cross marketing and hoped that Fresno would in the future if its festival continues.

In an interview, Christopher said Fresno’s festival is “cute, but it’s not necessarily close to anything we’re doing.”

De Young said Fresno didn’t want to cause a stink with its new festival.

“We’re just looking to create our own event and our own sale,” said De Young.”I think there’s plenty of garlic eaters to sustain two garlic festivals, if not more, later down the road.”

San Benito High School juniors Melissa Ruiz and Isabel Muñoz got a jumpstart on their college fund as the two Visual and Performing Arts students earned $550 scholarships through the California Teachers Association's 2018-2019 César E. Chávez Memorial Education Awards Program.

Art teacher Tracey Torres’ students also received award certificates and earned high praise for their creative entrees.

Ruiz created what Torres called “an amazing artwork that demonstrates an understanding of the vision and guiding principles by which César E. Chávez lived his life.”

Munoz, the teacher noted, “eloquently spoke to the nature of how she and her Raza follow the same principles of César E. Chávez, through nonviolence, self determination, social justice for farmworkers, human and civil rights, teamwork and collaboration, empowerment to the disenfranchised, and innovation and education for all students of color.”

Muñoz’s winning essay and Ruiz’s winning

Isabel Munoz artwork will be put on display in the CTA Headquarters Building in Burlingame. Additionally, CTA intends to publish an article about the award recipients in a future issue of “California Educator.”

“I am extremely proud of my two first-generation Mexican-American students who took the time and effort to document their history onto both written and pictorial storytelling,” Torres said.

Commencement June 7

San Benito High School’s 124th annual commencement ceremony will honor its Class of 2019 at 8:30am June 7 on the new multi-use fields of the 1220 Monterey St. campus.

Marguerite Maze Middle School’s eighth-grade promotion ceremony will be held at 3pm June 4.

A TRUE BALER Dominique Monteon had a tremendous career at San Benito High, culminating with a three-run home run against Watsonville in the CCS Division I playoff semifinals. Monteon, who could be counted upon to deliver her best, will play at the University of North Carolina next year.

A title run cut short SAN BENITO’S SEASON IS DONE AFTER LOSS IN CCS SEMIFINALS emanuel lee Sports Editor

Robert Eliason

It was a heartbreaking end to the season for the San Benito High softball team, which suffered a 5-4 loss to league rival Watsonville last in the Central Coast Section Division I semifinals.

The Wildcatz scored the gamewinning run with one out in the bottom of the seven inning to seal the Balers’ fate.

“That was a hard loss,” Haybalers coach Andrew Barragan said. “Because we got up early against a very good pitcher but couldn’t hold it. The seniors took it really hard. They got a taste last year of losing in the (CCS) championship game (to Gilroy), and they wanted this one bad.”

San Benito jumped on Watsonville pitcher and Division I commit Jessica Rodriguez, scoring three runs in the top of the first inning. Gia Felice and Drew Barragan produced singles before Dominique Monteon blasted a three-run home run to center field.

“We actually hit Jessica pretty good,” Barragan said. “But they got three in the bottom of the first and it was a whole new ballgame.”

Drew Barragan accounted for the team’s final run with a solo home run in the fifth inning, her third home run in as many games.

“Three home runs in three playoff games, I haven’t seen that in a while,” Andrew Barragan said. “I wasn’t expecting her to hit the way she did for the whole season. Overall, she had the highest average on the team and the most hits. It’s incredible the way she handled herself

(coming here as a Monte Vista Christian-transfer).”

The Balers, who last won a CCS title in 2016, will graduate several key players, including Monteon, Amber Rodriguez and Alyssa Ito—three Division I signees. However, as is the case in most years, San Benito looks to reload instead of rebuild. The Balers are projected to return Drew Barragan and Julia Woeste, and the improvement they make as pitchers will be the determining factors in the team’s success in 2020.

“I think next year our pitching will be incredible,” Barragan said.

Simply put, the Balers have lacked a truly dominant ace the last couple of years, and it’s no coincidence they haven’t won a section championship in that span. If Barragan or Woeste can develop into a bona-fide shutdown pitcher, San Benito will have the goods to make a legitimate championship run next season. That’s because plenty of solid hitters and position players return, including a terrific freshmen class that should be even better as sophomores.

Felice provided a potent presence at the leadoff spot, and had a high on-base percentage.

Fellow freshmen Gianna Perez, Angelic Diaz, Seryna Esparza and Shanelle Cavazos all had an impact at some point in the season. Perez was the backup catcher to Rodriguez, and possesses a srong arm.

“We expect some big things from her and all of them next year,” Andrew Barragan said.

Diaz can play the outfield or infield, Cavazos played first and third base and Esparza first base and right field.

“I’m glad the freshmen got to see that CCS championship type run,” Barragan said. “I assured them next year we’ll be back here again because the freshmen class will be that much better. All

RISING STANDOUT Gia Felice had a terrific freshman season for the Balers, who saw their season end in the CCS Division I playoff semifinals to Watsonville. Felice was a playmaker both offensively and defensively. of those freshmen play high caliber travel ball, so they’ll be ready to rock and roll next season.”

San Benito also returns third baseman Kaiya Dickens, who will be a junior next season.

Barragan said he was proud of Dickens for turning things around after starting the season 0-for-12.

“She nailed it down the second half of the season,” he said.

“I’m proud of the way she battled and how the entire team battled.”

Dickens, Monteon, Barragan and Ariel Mendez—another key senior—combined for eight of the team’s 10 hits against Watsonville. Barragan was pleased in how the players continued

to grind through practices and competed in games.

“We battled and had a good run,” he said. “We’ll meet to turn everything in and go over everything. I’ll talk with them individually to see how the season went and what I need them to work on over the summer and the expectations they’ll have to work hard and come back stronger next season.”

BASEBALL

The Balers saw their season end unceremoniously at the hands of Mitty, as they fell 15-5 in an Open Division semifinal game that was called in the fifth inning due the mercy rule. All six San Benito

pitchers gave up runs as Mitty scored at least two runs in every inning. Aidan Shaw led the Balers with a single and triple, but that was the extent of the positives as San Benito suffered one of its worst losses in playoff history.

The Balers actually led for a brief moment when they scored two runs in the top of the first inning, highlighted by Shaw’s triple. However, Mitty answered with three in the bottom half and took off from there. San Benito graduates two of its top three pitchers, but will return Jackson Pace along with six position players to try to make another run for a league and CCS title next season.

A teacher 1st and competitor 2nd HOLLISTER’S MARK PREADER WINS A GOLD AND THREE BRONZE MEDALS FOR TEAM USA AT WORLD ALL STYLES CHAMPIONSHIP emanuel lee Sports Editor

Higher purpose

“Competing has never been my main focus,” he said. “I don’t compete for personal honor or glory—I compete for my students. I’m all about them. I’m a teacher first and they are what matters to me. If I can inspire them, that means more than anything else.”

Preader’s effort and performance certainly proved to be an inspiration. Preader, who competed in the 40-plus male age division, took gold in the traditional Kobudo forms and bronze in traditional empty hands forms, Sino Vietnamese weapons forms (brown/black belt), and weapons forms hard (brown/black belt).

“I didn’t expect to go to Portugal and win a world championship,” he said.

“That was the last thing that was on my mind.

Even though I didn’t have expectations to win, I still

had the mindset to do the best I could.”

Preader acknowledged there was great satisfaction and pride in him being able to bring home four medals, but he said the relationships that were built and the camaraderie of Team USA was the most meaningful thing to come out of the competition.

“The friendships I made with people, and the team bonding like family almost instantly meant more for me on a personal level (than winning),” he said. “Martial arts is about family and friendships. My school is not a karate school—it’s a martial arts community.

When people get involved, it drives you to do your best.

I will always cherish the time in Portugal as a memorable experience.”

Preader’s primary disciplines include Jeet Kune Do and Kali martial arts.

There are dozens of different disciplines in MMA, most of which the general public are unfamiliar with. Kubodo refers to traditional Japanese weapons like nunchucks and the bo staff. In Portugal, Preader used a weapon called a Kama, a traditional farming implement similar to a sickle that is used for reaping crops.

“Kubodo Japanese farm tools were made into weapons many years ago, and over time those evolved to be used in competitions,” Preader said.

The Hard style category is more karate based, while soft is more kung fu style.

Competing in four events displayed Preader’s versatility; however, he was most proud of his performance in the traditional

Submitted

Mark Preader didn’t get into mixed martial arts (MMA) for sheer competition—he started tae kwon do at age 14 because he was being bullied. After a couple of years practicing martial arts, the bullying subsided.

“I was picked on a lot,” said Preader, who was raised in Morgan Hill, graduated from Live Oak High in 1995 and is the owner of Enterprise Academy of Martial Arts in Hollister. “I had friends taking martial arts at the time, and I didn’t know anything about it at all, no clue. I just went in and signed up without watching a class and instantly fell in love with it. I was never an active kid, so martial arts was the first time I did anything active of note.

“The fact I got a lot more confident resulted in being bullied a lot less.

They tend to pick on people who are not confident.

I didn’t get in fights, which is a good thing and one of the reasons why I’m so huge in (the) anti-bullying (movement). I feel it’s an epidemic and hopefully kids can understand if they do stand up for themselves, they can get past it.”

Preader’s response underscores his essential mindset when it comes to practicing MMA in that he doesn’t do it just for

himself—he does it for all of his students—to show them what is possible through hard work, discipline and focus. Preader, who was a member of Team USA competing in the World All-Styles Championship Martial Arts Tournament in Portugal last month, earned a gold and three bronze medals in his first competition in 19 years.

The long layoff from competition wasn’t a coincidence. The 41-year-old Preader never got into MMA to win medals or victories; rather, he developed a passion for the sport to inspire and give hope to himself and then spread that hope and joy to others.

CHAMP Mark Preader won gold in Kubodo forms at the All Styles World Championship.

Kobudo forms division because he didn’t have a chance to train for it.

Adjusting on the fly

“In the other divisions I trained a lot longer because I had an idea what I had to do,” he said. “But in the Kubodo weapon, you essentially get over there and find out what you’ll be doing. With the help of (Team USA assistant coach) Greg (Garcia), I had to piece together the form and had a week to prepare for it.”

Garcia was the one who invited Preader to be on the team in February 2018,

which gave Preader ample time to prepare himself mentally and physically for the competition. Garcia and Preader are longtime friends, but Preader had no idea the invitation was coming.

“It came out of the blue,” he said. “I hadn’t competed since 2000, but I was given this opportunity and figured why not go for it.”

Preader, who teaches classes Monday through Friday at his studio which is located at 351 Tres Pinos Road, credited Russ Rocchi as being instrumental in his development over the years.

“Russ was my main instructor,” he said. “I have a lot of teachers to thank because through their teaching they gave me a strong enough base to go to Portugal and adapt. … I felt honored to be a part of Team USA.” Preader’s Enterprise Academy of Martial Arts teaches Tae Kwon Do, kickboxing, Brazilian JiuJitsu, Eskrima, Arnis and Kali. The academy also teaches Jeet Kune Do, which is the only martial arts studio on the Central Coast that is authorized to teach Bruce Lee’s form of martial arts.

MAY 14, 1939 – MAY 12, 2019

J

osephine Rose passed away in Hollister, California on May 25th, 2019 at the age of 97 years. Funeral services will be held at Grunnagle-Ament-Nelson Funeral Home on Saturday, June 8th at 11:00 a.m. Visit www.grunnagle.com for full obituary and condolences

MARK HILTON ASHFORD DECEMBER 27, 1953 – MAY 18, 2019

M

ark Hilton Ashford of Gilroy, CA died peacefully on May 18, 2019.

Mark was born to Calvin and Peggy Ashford on December 27, 1953 in Santa Ana, CA. We will forever remember his many talents.

He was an artist, an actor, a poet, a mechanic and one heck of a bass player.

He was loved by his family and friends and will be missed dearly.

G

eorge Earl Ekberg passed away suddenly on Mother’s Day, May 12, 2019 two days short of his 80th birthday. He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Jacqueline Roberta (Hilleary) Ekberg; his siblings Janis (Ekberg) Harral, Garland Ekberg and Geraldine ‘Bugz’ (Ekberg) Kammeyer; his children James Derek Marshall, Georgiana Leola (Ekberg) Bluhm, Michael David Marshall and Hilleary Asenthe Ekberg; his grandchildren Amanda (Bluhm) Rommel, Alexis Bluhm, Ashley Bluhm and Austin Bluhm; and guardian to Elizabeth ‘Betty Ann’ Ann Groux. He is preceded in death by his parents William Earl Ekberg and Glady Juanita (Simpson) Ekberg; his daughter Robin Donnell Marshall; and his grandson Brodie James Scott Ekberg.

George was born to William Earl and Gladys Juanita Ekberg in Ketchum, Oklahoma. A few year later the Ekberg’s moved to Caldwell Idaho where they lived for about 7 years before moving to Springfield Oregon, where George graduated from Springfield High School. During high school George enjoyed wrestling, pole vaulting, track and field, singing in his high school choir, fishing, hunting and getting into trouble with his best friend Richard ‘Butch’ Morten. Together George and Butch enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserves and where stationed together in the 2nd 155 MM Gun Battery in Eugene Oregon. George achieved the rank of Corporal before being honorably discharged.

While stationed at Camp Pendleton, he was introduced to his first wife Barbara Walton. They were married in 1963 and moved to San Jose when George left the Marine Corps and two years later welcomed their daughter Georgiana Leola Ekberg into their family.

ALAN S. TRAVASSO Private cremation with private family inurnment Black Cooper Sander Funeral Home. sanderfhcares.com

In 1971, while working as a baker in San Jose, George meet and fell in love with Jacqueline and in 1972 he married Jackie in a small family ceremony at their house on Cree Drive. George not just married Jackie but also became the step father to her beautiful children James Derek Marshall, Michael David Marshall and Robin Donnell Marshal, which he raised as his own. In 1975 they welcomed their youngest child Hilleary Asenthe Ekberg into their Brady Bunch Family.

In 1977, George and Jackie moved their clan to Gilroy, in the house that would be known as “The Ranch” to the family. George and his family raised horses, pigs, rabbits and chickens and he worked multiple jobs to support his family. In 1981 George was hired as the Baker for the Flying Lady restaurant in Morgan Hill, where he became close friends with Irv Perch and his family. All his surviving children at one point or another worked at the restaurant in one capacity or another, but his most trusted co-worker was James’ Best Friend Jon Michael Cicairos, who became very close with George and learned a lot of life lessons from him and who George and Jackie treated as their other ‘son’.

George was an active member of the San Jose & Gilroy communities and helped coach many young athletes to learn the games of baseball, softball, golf and yes even bowling. He enjoyed going square dancing, bowling, golf, singing, coaching, fishing and working on the ranch. He was also a social butterfly and no matter where he went in town, he would run into someone he knew and strike up a conversation about their family or golf, much to the chagrin of his children, who would arrive home some days with George already knowing what they had done. He loved to watch golf on Sundays and loved to pull out his guitar and just sing at any gathering. George spent his final years retired from work and enjoying his family when they would come and visit him and Jackie at the ranch.

Services for George will be 3:00 pm on May 26, 2019 at Habing Family Funeral Home located at 129 4th Street, Gilroy CA 95020. All are also welcomed to attend the gathering at the family ranch shortly after the services to commemorate George’s life.
