Officials: Know Beach Rules Before You Go
By Bob Vosseller BELMAR – People are heading back to the beach but Monmouth officials want to make sure as summer approaches that they are aware of what the new rules are. The Mon mouth Cou nt y Boa rd of Chosen Freeholders outlined the r ules
during a recent press conference in Belmar where they advised residents and visitors planning on heading to the beach this summer to “Know Before You Go.” T h e C ou nt y wa s lauded by Gov. Phil Murphy for its proactive planning which emphasizes the im-
portance of beachgoers researching badge sales and park ing i n for mat ion before traveling to their destination. Shore municipalities h ave b eg u n i mple me nt i ng new r u le s a nd r eg u lat ion s a s the Garden State continues to f latten the curve of the corona-

Officials Call For In-Person Graduations
By Bob Vosseller HOWELL –Township Mayor Theresa Berger wanted to see students have an in-person graduation ceremony, especially those Howell students who will also graduate from Freehold Regional High School District. The mayor recently began a petition which as of May 27 had 1,200 signatures by residents. She thanked those residents on her Mayor’s Facebook page saying “as a mayor and having a medical degree, I argued that we can do this safely and responsibly. Thank you to everyone who joined me in calling the Governor’s Office and our Monmouth legislators every day in pushing for this and I am glad it has happened.” Gov. Phil Murphy announced during his May 26 daily press briefing concerning COVID-19 pandemic conditions in the state, that as of July 6, live graduation ceremonies could take place with social distancing guidelines that were sent to school districts the following day. Berger said in a video posted to her page on May 27 that “we have great news. All graduations will occur after July 6. Those will be in person. Any before, will have to be virtual. High School and grad school graduations will occur. They will maintain social distancing and there might be multiple ceremonies.” She added that ceremonies for those of kindergarten up to early grade school will not occur. “I hope parents understand. After July 6, there will be no indoor graduation ceremonies only outdoor. There will be multiple ceremonies depending on the amount of students and the amount of students that can fit with faculty in the outdoor venue. “There will be a minimal amount of staffing to make sure that proper social distancing is enforced. Caps, gowns and diplomas those will be sent to your homes if they haven’t already,” Mayor Berger said. The mayor said that if you can not get them sent home “you can pick them up and call the schools. You can get them but you have (Graduation - See Page 2)

Graduation:
Continued From Page 1 to maintain proper social distancing to get your caps, gowns and diplomas. “All guidelines must be enforced and we know that the school district will have all the officials that need to be there, police, health, OEM, anyone else that needs to be there will be to ensure that everything will be safe and fun for you and your family,” the mayor added. Mayor Berger concluded saying, “so, kids, parents we did it. We got through. We worked hard. Thank you for working with me. This was amazing. I look forward to doing more things with everyone out there. Howell, happy graduation!” The governor stressed during his initial announcement that parents, students and school district staff would need to “comply with social distancing – ensuring the health and safety of all in attendance.” Murphy’s order allowing outdoor graduation ceremonies to be held applies to middle school and high school graduations, as well as colleges/universities. Specific guidance was released by the
state Department of Education and the Secretary of Higher Education. That guidance allows for multiple graduation ceremonies at different times or spread across multiple days for instances where graduating classes are “too large to accommodate a crowd within the restrictions in place for outdoor gatherings,” Gov. Murphy said. Gov. Murphy said, “our goal is to ensure our students are given the sendoffs they richly deserve. We want them to celebrate and to be celebrated by their families, friends and educators who helped get them there, but do so safely.” School districts will have to develop a plan to show how they will adapt their ceremony to meet the health guidelines and restrictions issued by the DOE for their live event. Some districts may elect to retain their plans of a virtual graduation noting that some students, parents and speakers may not be able to attend a live one during the summer due to vacations or other family plans. As Mayor Berger noted, districts would also have the option to hold virtual and live ceremonies at different times.
Beach:

He added, “new policies like this that will be in place this summer make it critical for visitors to research their destination to ensure a smooth trip to our part of the Jersey Shore.” “We would like everyone to enjoy the beach season, but please follow the rules that have been put in place to ensure everyone’s safety,” said Belmar Mayor Mark Walsifer. “In Belmar, we will be selling daily beach badges. If sections of our beach become overpopulated, patrons will be directed to other areas of the beach so social distancing can be achieved,” the mayor added. Tourism visitation to Monmouth County in 2019 reached 8.8 million, ranking the County as the fifth most visited county in New Jersey for the year. “Our small business community is the backbone of our economy,” Arnone said. “More importantly, they’re employing our friends, neighbors and residents. It’s especially important to give them our support during this tough time.” He added, “I know they’re working hard to ensure their businesses are safe for their employees and customers. The Board of Chosen Freeholders will continue to work closely with our mayors and small businesses with the goal of getting our economy back on track.” For more infor mation about Shore municipalities rules and regulations for summer 2020, go to visitmonmouth.com.

Protest:
Continued From Page 1 cities. However, there have also been many peaceful protests. “Due to the recent event of the murder of George Floyd, we have assembled this peaceful protest to stand in solidarity with the people of Minneapolis, Denver, Louisville, Los Angeles, and anywhere else that has experienced police brutality,” Hubner said. Hubner who is going into his junior year of college added, “I got tired of seeing what has been going on in the world and tired of seeing people in my community not doing anything about what is going on so I decided it would be good to have a peaceful protest. This is very last minute but all yesterday I was rallying to get people to come and since the virus is still here we still need to social distance so I’ve been setting up places along the sidewalk six feet apart marked with duct tape so we can all peacefully protest and not have to worry about contracting the virus.” Gustaveo Lagoes also of Howell, knew Hubner since Middle School. “He contacted me on short notice about setting up a protest.” Lagoes had helped with a similar protest staged at the same location about two years ago. “We were getting tired of not taking any action so we decided to come out today and show our support for George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement,” Lagoes said. A township police officer did brief ly stop by and provided a friendly reminder to be careful when entering the crosswalk and intersection for traveling cars. Many honked their horns and cheered in support throughout the afternoon. A few of the protestors were hesitant to provide their names for this story. Aisha Battle said that while she and others were wearing their masks for safety reasons and also to protect their identity that “at the end of the day everyone can take their masks off and no one will even know you were here. When I go home, I have no mask. This is who I am every day. I don’t get to go home and take a mask off and act like this never happened.” “I’m a single parent and it is difficult seeing this repetitive behavior of aggression of officers. At the same time as a community we need to stop making excuses and justifying the behavior,” Battle said. She added, “as a community I think we need to begin to understand that we are all in this together and a lot of white people don’t help the situation when they deny the fact of what is happening. We have to stop saying we are all one race, the human race. The truth is we are all different. We have to accept those differences and understand those differences because then we can start to understand each other.” “By me acknowledging that there are white, black, Asian people doesn’t make me a racist. It means I am able to use my eyes and see that we are all from
different backgrounds. When you begin to have that conversation, you begin to have a better understanding and officers will know how to deal with people in a different manner rather than thinking everyone should conform to one size fits all. We need to respect each other’s differences,” Battle said. Malik Ali came from Brooklyn N.Y. and has family in the area. He was not only a participant in the rally but was also documenting it. He learned about the protest by having seen it while driving. “I think that the society we live in has never healed from the 30s, the 40s, the 50s, and a lot of those inhuman thoughts, demonic thoughts that white supremacy had in the 40s - they never healed from that,” Ali said. “It has just been passed on from generation to generation so when you see something like what happened the other day - that is the result of someone who has so much hatred and fear in him of another human being because of his complexion. That was a display of the anger and was so out of control even knowing he was being fi lmed, he still couldn’t control himself,” Ali added. “There has to be some form of healing on both sides because we as black people are still traumatized from slavery so we need healing but those seeds of the forefathers of those oppressors they need to be healed. You can’t have a world of injustice, a world of inhuman people and white supremacy and then one day you say, okay, here is the Civil Rights Bill everything is okay, let’s move forward.” Ali said that it was evident that there was “a mental, spir it ual, emotional wound from the oppressor. In his mind there was damage there so to say there is a Civil Rights movement, we don’t do this anymore but that wound is still there emotionally.” He added, “ that is why in 2020 we are still in the condition we are in because there was never any healing put in place.” Laurie Martin is an area resident who found out at 1 p.m. that a rally was going on. “I’ve been devasted by the current events and I fail to understand why the police weren’t charged the minute the video came out. I am here to express my outrage. It is better than crying on the couch.” Martin added regarding the numerous rioting occurring in cities across the countries that “it is horrible and could have been avoided had those officers been charged when that video became available to all of us. No one would be rioting. We wouldn’t be standing here if they weren’t immediately arrested. There are many good police officers. More good than bad but the bad need to be held accountable and right away.” Payton Mckiney, a high school senior of Freehold Township drew a picture of George Floyd and was holding it during the rally. “I am actually selling the portraits and 100% of the proceeds are going to the cause. I wanted to come out here today and support the cause so I showed up and it is nice seeing everyone here supporting it.”

Monmouth Welcomes Summer In A Different Way From The Desk Of The
Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone I hope everyone had a safe, happy and healthy Memorial Day Weekend. While Memorial Day usually signals the beginning of the summer season, let us not forget the true meaning of this solemn day. As we observed Memorial Day and remembered those who made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting our nation’s freedoms, I couldn’t help but thin k about our youth – our future generation. During nor mal times, st udents would be in school sitting in their classrooms with their peers lear ning all about Memorial Day and what it means.
They would be learning how soldiers from decades – centuries – past defended our great nation and how those 50 stars and 13 stripes are the most treasured and beautiful symbol of democracy and freedom in the world. They would maybe even learn the story of valor and sacrifice made by a fallen soldier who once lived nearby or in their home state. They would be in class learning why it is so important we gather together on this day, year after year, to remember those who served their country bravely. W hile they’re not i n school, it is my hope that
their parents are teaching them just how important it is to remember – not just on Memorial Day– but every day. I hope parents are telling them that honoring those lost and those currently serving is something that should be honored always. Although it’s unfortunate we could not provide the proper ceremonies and gat he r i ngs we u su al ly would to honor our heroes, it did not stop us from taking time to remember. To remember those fallen, those they left behind and those who are currently in harm’s way. God bless them and God bless America. Speaking of Memorial Day, most of our Monmouth County beaches officially opened this weekend. I would like to thank our shore town Mayors for their hard work over the past few weeks working with the County to formulate
plans to open our beaches and boardwalks. It was a pleasure to see most people adhering to the social distancing, safety protocols and town guidelines that are in place. Additionally, the County launched the “Know Before You Go” initiative last week at our Summer Press Conference in Belmar. This initiative emphasizes the importance of beachgoers researching badge sales and parking information before traveling to their destination. Due to social distancing protocols in place, the beach you may have enjoyed in the past may not be selling daily badges or they may only be selling badges online. New policies like this that will be in place this summer make it critical for visitors to research their destination to ensure a smooth trip to our part of the Jersey Shore.
For more infor mation about Shore municipalities rules and regulations for summer 2020, go to visitmonmouth.com. I look forward to continuing to work with our shore mayors as we ascend into summer and assist them with whatever they may need. On a separate note, last week I hosted another conference call with representatives from our chambers of commerce all around Monmouth County. During this call we discussed their concerns and plans they have for reopening our businesses, such as outdoor dining options. Additionally, we discussed the CARES Act funding as well as the allocation of the County’s Community Development Block Grant funds. I want to thank our chambers for all they are doing to assist our businesses. I look forward to continuing to work together as a team to reopen our busi-
nesses in a safe manner for employees and customers. In addition to advocating for reopening of our businesses, I have spent the past several weeks lobbying very hard for our high schools seniors to be able to have their graduation ceremonies outside. I am pleased to inform you that Governor Murphy has announced that outdoor graduation ceremonies that comply with social distancing guidelines are able to take place starting July 6th. This is a very special milestone in our children’s lives and I am glad they will be able to celebrate appropriately. Lastly, let us remember those we have lost during this crisis, those fighting and all of our first responders, health care workers and all other essential employees who continue to work during this difficult time. We will get through this together.
Resolution To Forgive Superstorm Sandy Federal Relief Aid Passes In Committee Capitol Comments Senator Jim Holzapfel 10th Legislative District, Serving Toms River
TRENTON - A concurrent resolution sponsored by Senator Jim Holzapfel and Assemblymen Greg McGuckin and John Catalano (all R-10) urging the President and Congress to enact legislation forgiving certain community disaster loans issued after Superstorm Sandy h a s pa sse d t he Se n at e Com mu nit y and Urban Affairs Committee. SCR111 echoes Congressman Chris Smith’s federal legislation, H.R. 6454, a bill that would mandate the
forg ive ne s s of ce r t a i n community disaster loans secured by New Jersey municipalities from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to help with Superstorm Sandy recovery. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the lawmakers agree with Congressman Smith’s effort to help the State’s residents and businesses during the pandemic. This federal resolution would have a profound impact throughout New Jersey in helping stabilize
the economy, and would provide much needed support to the citizens of the State in the fight against COVID-19. “We are pleased to see t h i s bi l l p a s s t h r ou g h c om m it t e e br i ng i ng it one step closer to helping our residents during this difficult financial time,” stated Senator Holzapfel. “In 2012, our district was one of the hardest hit by Superstorm Sandy. While I have no doubt we will recover from this pandemic and come back stronger than before, we must provide some relief to our residents at this time.” Recently, FEM A has begun to press New Jersey municipalities to start repaying the loans given out to residents and businesses to help the State’s
post-Superstor m Sandy recovery. This mandatory repayment would have a devastating effect throughout the State, as these demands come at a time when New Jersey is struggling to fight COVID-19, the legislators said. The payments on the community disaster loans were originally allowed to be paid back slowly over time, with the possibility of forgiveness. “It’s been almost eight years since Superstor m Sandy and our residents are still feeling the fi nancial impact of that natural disaster,” added Assemblyman McGuckin. “Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of our residents are out
of work and many small businesses are either partially or completely shut down. Repaying this debt to FEMA is nearly impossible at a time li ke this. Our legislation urges Congress and the President to forgive these loans and begin to get our state’s economy back on track.” Currently, New Jersey residents who were granted loans under the “Small Business Act” now face the possibility they may be prohibited from receiving further disaster relief aid during the COVID-19 pandemic since any new grant issued may be counted as a duplicate benefit. The bill also addresses the lingering duplication of benefit problem by removing the
receipt of small business loans as a disqualifier for people who sought or received federal money to help them recover in the wake of Superstorm Sandy. “We agree with Congressman Smith’s proposal to forgive loans and ensure that small businesses in our state can apply for federal relief without the fear of being excluded,” concluded Assemblyman Catalano. “These are unprecedented times and we feel federal loans issued after Superstorm Sandy can and should be forgiven. In order to get our economy running again, it starts with small businesses and their employees who deserve better.”

Understanding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome By: Jessica Abraham, OT, Certified Hand Therapist, Toms River Location
Have you ever woken up with a sensation of pins and needles in your fingers? Do you find that you are dropping objects more frequently? If you answered yes to those questions, then you may be experiencing symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) often starts as a general sensation of aching or weakness throughout the wrist and hand and can lead to numbness and tingling into your fingers. An increase in symptoms can be experienced as the condition progresses and may start to have an impact on your daily activities. Evidence suggests that 3% of women and 2% of men will experience carpal tunnel symptoms in their lifetime and the average age of onset is 55 or older. To begin, let’s discuss the anatomy of the carpal tunnel. There is a small, internal space on the palm side of the wrist and this space is called the carpal tunnel. The top or roof of the carpal tunnel is formed by a ligament that runs across the wrist. The median nerve and several flexor tendons run through this tunnel. The median nerve is responsible for providing sensation to the thumb, index, middle, and half of the ring finger. Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by excess pressure being applied to the median nerve at the wrist level. The extra pressure on the nerve can decrease the nerve’s ability to send its signal to the fingers causing a sensation of pins and needles. You can think of the median nerve as a garden hose; when you step on a hose the flow of water is decreased and when the pressure is taken off, the water can flow freely. This is the same concept with the median nerve and the extra pressure that can occur in the carpal tunnel. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: • Tingling/Numbness in the palm side of your thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers. You will not feel these symptoms in the small finger with carpal tunnel syndrome. This often occurs during prolonged gripping activities such as holding a phone or newspaper or can occur at night. Many people often wake up with the sensation of numbness in their hand and find themselves ‘shaking out’ their hand for relief. • Weakness throughout the hand and fingers. People often report feeling clumsy or will frequently drop objects.
• Pain that radiates from the wrist down into the hand or travels up the forearm toward the shoulder. CAUSES AND RISK FACTORS: The exact cause of CTS is typically unknown. Compression or pressure on the median nerve can happen in several ways including: • Repetitive use of hand and fingers • Keeping the wrist in a bent position for a prolonged period of time • Inflammation of the tendons that run through the carpal tunnel • Water retention • Pregnancy Research has shown that conditions such as arthritis, wrist fractures, or dislocations may cause the carpal tunnel to narrow. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, individuals with metabolic conditions, such as diabetes, are at higher risk for CTS. Women are three times more likely to experience carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms than men and it rarely affects children. According to the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, in severe cases of carpal tunnel syndrome, numbness can be permanent and there may be a loss in the muscle mass at the base of the thumb. TREATMENT OPTIONS: There are several treatment options for CTS including occupational therapy. An occupational therapist is a skilled health professional who will evaluate your condition and how the symptoms are impacting your ability to complete your daily activities. Some treatment options include: • Wrist splinting to provide support and keep the wrist straight to reduce pressure being applied to the median nerve. Wrist splints are typically worn at night to bed to reduce symptoms that may interfere with sleep. • Activity modification techniques to continue to participate in daily and recreational activities without increasing CTS symptoms. • Stretching and strengthening exercises to help reduce pain and improve grip strength and function of the hand. An occupational therapist will be able to design and implement a
treatment program to assist in alleviating your symptoms. Corticosteroid injections, non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs, and use of vitamins such as B6, may also be used in conjunction with therapy to help reduce symptoms. If conservative treatment is not successful in alleviating symptoms, carpal tunnel surgery has proven successful in alleviating CTS symptoms. Carpal tunnel syndrome can have a significant impact on all aspects of your daily routine. Early diagnosis is important to prevent irreversible damage to the median nerve and prevent you from participating in your daily activities. At All-Care Physical Therapy, our Hand Therapist specializes in the treatment of carpal tunnel and other hand disorders. Contact your physician if you are experiencing these symptoms and ask if an Occupational Therapist at All-Care can help. OT Hand Therapy is practiced in Toms River, Jackson, and Whiting locations!

Chase Leads To Drug Arrest
By Chris Lundy HOWELL – A man attempting to get a prescription drug with a fraudulent prescription was arrested after he fled from a pharmacy, police said. The incident happened around noon on May 24 at Future Pharmacy on Route 9. An employee called police, saying that a customer was using what appeared to be a fake prescription to get prescription grade cough syrup. He gave police a description of the customer. The customer, later identified as Walter Capellan, 25, of The Bronx, N.Y., was spotted by Patrolman William Brooks. After a brief exchange, Capellan fled from the store, according to the police. Capellan went into the back of a Jeep Grand Cherokee near the 7-Eleven. The officer told the people inside not to drive away. Capellan then fled on foot while Brooks stayed with the two people in the vehicle. Additional units responded to the area to catch the suspect. He was found in the area of 1300 Route 9 South.

of The Bronx and Genesis Duarte, 23, of Philadelphia. There was a smell of marijuana, police said, and the vehicle was searched. This uncovered several burnt marijuana cigarettes, a small package of marijuana, and a glass pipe. There were also two baby bottles, one of which had a syrupy substance which was consistent with the cough medication that was requested at the pharmacy. There were also ten credit cards which appear to be either stolen or fraudulent. Capellan was charged with Obtaining a Controlled Dangerous Substance by Fraud, Obstruction, and Possession of Controlled Dangerous Substance (marijuana). Cruz was charged with Conspiracy to Obtain CDS by Fraud, Possession of Controlled Dangerous Substance (marijuana), and Driving While Suspended. Cruz had an outstanding warrant by Clifton municipal court. Duarte was charged with Conspiracy to Obtain CDS by Fraud, Possession of Controlled Dangerous Substance (marijuana), and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia (pipe). Charges are merely accusations until proven in a court of law. The Jeep was impounded.

Former Mayor Patterson Recalls More Of Howell’s History
By Howell Heritage Historical Society Member Ann Malsbury This is the second installment of the memories of former Mayor Charles W. Patterson regarding the rich history of Howell Township. “As I look back, Howell Township had many small villages. The one nearest to where I live is now Adelphia, formerly Turkey, and before that Blue Ball. Today we look at Adelphia as a nice
country village. I also think of it as an active business center, early 1900-1925. The following names and businesses I knew: • John Conine; harness shop, Post Office • Charles Bearmore; grocery store • George Irons; wheelwright • Jeremiah Stillwell; blacksmith • Robert Kohler; shoe maker
• William Boud; blacksmith • Henry Lewis; bakery • Thomas Roe; blacksmith • Dan Pittenger; barber • Claytons; funeral home • Robert Morris; groceries & dry goods store • Joe Errickson; horse sales stable • George Hall; grocery store Methodist Church
About one mile east of my home, [located] on the corner of Fairfield Road & County Road 524 was a small grocery store operated by Howard Borden. At the rear of the store on Fairfield Road was a blacksmith shop. Jack Heyer was the smithy. A short distance further east on 524 where the Howell Township Library and Municipal Court is today (editor’s note-now the VFW building) there was a small country store managed by John T. Reid, a Civil War veteran. He was later appointed post master of the Ardena Post Office by John Wanamaker, Post Master General of the United States of America. This area which had been called Fairfield included the Fairfield Baptist Church and in 1921 the church was renamed Ardena Baptist Church. On the opposite side of the road next to the former State Police Barracks now where the Howell Township Board of Education has it’s central offices (now the Howell Food Pantry), stood a blacksmith shop operated by John Megill. I have written about the people and the area that I was familiar with. Charles W. Patterson and dated Feb. 1, 1979.
Toll Increase, Toms River Parkway Changes Proposed By Chris Lundy TRENTON – The Turnpike Authority issued a plan to increase tolls throughout the Garden State Parkway and New Jersey Turnpike which will include improvements in Ocean County and beyond. The tolls will increase by 27 percent on the Parkway and 36 percent on the Turnpike for passenger vehicles. Commercial vehicles will see an increase as well. The tolls are expected to go into effect Sept. 13. In Ocean County, the Barnegat toll will increase from $1.50 to $1.90 and the Toms River toll will increase from 75 cents to 95 cents. The tolls on the ramps in Waretown, Lacey, Berkeley, Lakewood and Brick will increase from 50 cents to 65 cents. The tolls will help pay for improvement projects throughout these two roads. Locally, there is a proposed change to Parkway miles 80-83, in Toms River and South Toms River. The Authority said four continuous lanes in each direction are needed between Interchanges 80 and 83 “to accommodate future traffic demands.” Full left and right shoulders will also be added. This project is expected to cost $75 million. Projects throughout the state are digital message boards ($80 million); a paving program ($550 million); lighting ($50 million); replacing underground storage tanks with aboveground ones ($10 million); medians ($35 million); fiberoptic lines ($100 million); ramp widening ($20 million); software and hardware ($400 million); a system to tell trucks if they are too tall for an overpass ($25 million); fixing/replacing 18 bridges/decks ($2.86 billion); drainage pipe replacement ($250 million); and many improvements to specific areas. Comments about the capital plan and the proposed changes to the toll schedule may be submitted by email to NJTAPublicComments@njta.com or sent to Executive Director, New Jersey Turnpike Authority, 1 Turnpike Plaza, P.O. Box 5042, Woodbridge, NJ, 07095.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.
Inside The Law Reviewing Your Estate Planning Documents In Light Of The Coronavirus By: Marc S. Galella, Esq., and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates With the coronavirus in the headlines today, a lot of clients are asking whether they need to update their Estate Planning documents which include Last Wills and Testaments, Powers of Attorney and Living Wills. In general, Estate Planning documents do not have to be revised because of age. Rather, they need to be revised when they no longer do what you need them to do. As important as it is to have these Estate Planning documents, it is equally important to keep them up to date. For example, are the persons who you named to inherit under you will still the persons that you want to inherit? Do you still want all of your children to inherit equally if you made gifts to one of your children during your lifetime? Did you provide for a trust for the benefit of your then minor children and they are now all over the age of 18 years? Do the persons that you named in your Will as the Executor still have the ability to perform the tasks associated with being an Executor? Do you have grandchildren that you want to name in your Will? If those grandchildren are under the age of 18 years, do you want their inheritance held by another person until they reach the age of 18, or maybe even older? Do you have a beneficiary who is receiving government assistance that would be disqualified by receiving an inheritance from you? Do you have a Power of Attorney? If so, do the persons named in the Power of Attorney still have the capability to perform the functions as your Attorney in Fact?
Robert C. Shea Esq.
Marc S. Galella Esq.
Does your Power of Attorney list alternates in case the persons you named to act for you are not capable of acting on your behalf? If you have a Living Will, have you looked at it recently to make sure the decisions you previously made as to life sustaining treatment are still what you want now. Has there been any change in your medical condition that is different now as opposed to when you made you Living Will? Are the persons you named in your Living Will as your Health Care Representatives still the persons that you want? Are they capability of acting in that capacity? We normally suggest that you take out your Estate Planning documents once a year and read them over to make sure that those documents still do what you remember that they did and what you need them to do now. However, in this time of medical concerns, it is a good idea to review your documents now to make sure you are protected in the event that you should become ill. We further suggest that you read your Estate Planning documents whenever there is a major event in your life such as a birth, death, divorce, change in financial status (you or your beneficiaries) or a change in mental capacity. The attorneys of R. C. Shea and Associates have over 100 years of combined experience in reviewing and preparing Estate Planning documents. Please call us to go over your Estate Planning needs.
Our clients’ success is our greatest reward. 732-505-1212 • RCSHEA.COM

Live Talk Radio! On Air and Online “I love the show! I wake up every morning with you.” - Jill, Bricktown
“LOVE THE SHOW!” - Anne, Lakewood
Let me start with I’m not really a bug lover, or a tree hugger type of person. But I don’t see the need to kill certain creatures just because they got lost and found their way into my home. I will try to trap and free certain things, depending on how big they are. But the moths are creating marital stress. Sam is skittish about doing bug removal, but the agreement we had when we got married in the state of Florida, was that he would deal with all cockroaches and spiders, if I would deal with the snakes and mice. While there have been tense stares over the past 22 years of marriage, I will vouch for his ability to perfectly execute his husbandly tasks, lol! Nothing was discussed about the moths. Apparently, this is my new fulltime job. We live in Colorado where every spring, there’s a situation! The migration of moths begins here and in Kansas, and f lies over our state, westward. You can try to chase moths out of your house, but this takes patience. Find one on your window, and put a cup over him, and then slide a sheet of paper between the cup and the glass. Very carefully lift this, and free the moth outside. There’s one aggressive sucker is in my bathroom so I decided to make my own moth repellant spray. The essential oils can be purchased anywhere. Try my formula for a moth spray and spritz it in your closet, your bedroom or
kitchen, or anywhere, and it will repel them from coming into that specific area. It will scare away most bugs for that matter! Spray every few hours. Adjust the scent to your liking. For example, add less eucalyptus and more lavender if you find my formula too zingy for you. Don’t spray it directly on your clothes. Moth Repellant Spray Water 4 ounces Essential oil of Cedar - 20 - 30 drops Essential oil of Lavender - 10 - 20 drops Essential oil of Peppermint - 5 - 10 drops Essential oil of Eucalyptus - 10 - 20 drops Optional: Citronella Essential Oil - 5 drops Directions: Pour water into the spray bottle and add the essential oils. If you don’t like the scent, add something to it that you do like, such as Wild Orange or Lemon essential oil. Spray as desired into the room, or window sills, door frames and areas where you see a moth. In closing, there are many ways to get rid of moths. You definitely don’t want these things laying eggs in your home because when they hatch, you’ll be faced with a big infestation. They can’t live more than a few days without feeding on plants or leaves. Another idea is to buy fresh rosemary or thyme herb, and bundle it, and lay it in the closet, or the bathroom because the moths won’t like that and they’ll stay away. For that matter, you can add those two essential oils to your moth spritzer.

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE CentraState Medical Center Reinstates Services As COVID-19 Cases Decline
FREEHOLD — In accordance with directives from the New Jersey Department of Health and Governor Phil Murphy, CentraState Medical Center began reinstating surgeries and invasive procedures on May 26. Such surgeries had been previously suspended due to COVID-19. The suspension of these surgeries and procedures preserved the medical center’s capacity to handle the surge of COVID-19 cases, which peaked in mid-April. Many key services have remained open, including the emergency department, labor and delivery, radiology, the Women’s Health Center, the laboratory, cardiac diagnostics, the MS Center, and cancer services. “We are open, safe and ready,� John T. Gribbin, president and CEO of CentraState Healthcare System said.. “Many people have delayed or avoided getting the care they need for fear of exposure to COVID-19 or because elective services have been temporarily unavailable.� Gribbin added, “we want to assure the community that we have implemented stringent safety precautions throughout our facilities and that they should prioritize health over any fears they may have.� He added that anyone who needs emergency care should not delay. Anyone who shows signs of a heart attack, stroke or who has been seriously injured should call 9-1-1 to get the care they need before it is too late. In addition, those with chronic conditions such as diabetes or hypertension should maintain contact with their healthcare providers to ensure they are staying healthy to prevent further complications.
Plans in place to protect patients, visitors and employees include the following—please check the CentraState website here for frequent updates on all of these policies: ¡ Entrance points will be limited and every person who enters a CentraState facility will be screened for temperature and symptoms. • Visitor restrictions will still be in place. The following patients will be allowed to have one visitor accompany them: delivering mothers, end of life patients, pediatric, surgery and outpatient surgery patients. Accompanying visitor must be asymptomatic. • Plexiglass and other physical barriers have been installed in registration/information areas as needed. • Patient care and waiting spaces in all departments have been reconfigured to maintain physical distancing. • Universal masking of employees, patients and visitors will continue • Intensified cleaning, disinfection and ventilation will continue, including the use of ultraviolet light technology that kills pathogens on surfaces. • COVID-19 patients will be cared for in limited, isolated areas away from other patients. • Virtual options for care will continue as possible. “We know it has been a stressful time waiting for a surgery, diagnostic test or treatment, and taking care of those health needs is important. We are incredibly appreciative of the community’s support during this challenging period, and are looking forward to providing the compassionate, quality care we have always been known for,â€? Gribbin added.
