Memorial Day History Explains Origins Of National Holiday

hree years after the Civil War ended, on May 5, 1868, the head of an organization of Union veterans — the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) — established Decoration Day as a time for the nation to decorate the graves of the war dead with flowers. Maj. Gen. John A. Logan declared that Decoration Day should be observed on May 30. It is believed that date was chosen because flowers would be in bloom all over the country. The first large observance was held that year at Arlington National Cemetery, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C. The ceremonies centered around the mourning-draped veranda of the Arlington mansion, once the home of Gen. Robert E. Lee. Various Washington officials, including Gen. and Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant, presided over the ceremo-

nies. After speeches, children from the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Orphan Home and members of the GAR made their way through the cemetery, strewing flowers on both Union and Confederate graves, reciting prayers and singing hymns. Local Observances Claim To Be First Local springtime tributes to the Civil War dead already had been held in various places. One of the first occurred in Columbus, Miss., April 25, 1866, when a group of women visited a cemetery to decorate the graves of Confederate soldiers who had fallen in battle at Shiloh. Nearby were the graves of Union soldiers, neglected because they were the enemy. Disturbed at the sight of the bare graves, the women placed some of their flowers on those graves, as well. Today, cities in the north and the south claim to be the birthplace of Memorial Day

in 1866. Both Macon and Columbus, Ga., claim the title, as well as Richmond, Va. The village of Boalsburg, Pa., claims it began there two years earlier. A stone in a Carbondale, Ill., cemetery carries the statement that the first Decoration Day ceremony took place there on April 29, 1866. Carbondale was the wartime home of Gen. Logan. Approximately 25 places have been named in connection with the origin of Memorial Day, many of them in the South where most of the war dead were buried. Official Birthplace Declared In 1966, congress and President Lyndon Johnson declared Waterloo, N.Y., the “birthplace” of Memorial Day. There, a ceremony on May 5, 1866, honored local veterans who had fought in the Civil War. Businesses closed and residents flew flags at half-staff. Supporters of Waterloo’s claim say

earlier observances in other places were informal, not community-wide or onetime events. By the end of the 19th century, Memorial Day ceremonies were being held on May 30 throughout the nation. State legislatures passed proclamations designating the day, and the Army and Navy adopted regulations for proper observance at their facilities. It was not until after World War I, however, that the day was expanded to honor those who have died in all American wars. In 1971, Memorial Day was declared a national holiday by an act of Congress, though it is still often called Decoration Day. It was then also placed on the last Monday in May, as were some other federal holidays.

Memorial Day History... continued from front page forgotten as a people the cost of a free and undivided republic.” The crowd attending the first Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery was approximately the same size as those that attend today’s observance, about 5,000 people. Then, as now, small American flags were placed on each grave — a tradition followed at many national cemeteries today. In recent years, the custom has grown in many families to decorate the graves of all departed loved ones. The origins of special services to honor those who die in war can be found in antiquity. The Athenian leader Pericles offered a

tribute to the fallen heroes of the Peloponnesian War more than 24 centuries ago that could be applied today to the 1.1 million Americans who have died in the nation’s wars: “Not only are they commemorated by columns and inscriptions, but there dwells also an unwritten memorial of them, graven not on stone but in the hearts of men.” To ensure the sacrifices of America’s fallen heroes are never forgotten, in December 2000, the U.S. Congress passed and the president signed into law “The National Moment of Remembrance Act,” P.L. 106-579, creating the White House Commission on the National Moment of Remembrance. The commis-

sion’s charter is to “encourage the people of the United States to give something back to their country, which provides them so much freedom and opportunity” by encouraging and coordinating commemorations in the United States of Memorial Day and the National Moment of Remembrance. The National Moment of Remembrance encourages all Americans to pause wherever they are at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day for a minute of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the nation. As Moment of Remembrance founder Carmella LaSpada states: “It’s a way we can all help put the memorial back in Memorial Day.”

County Residents Turn In Hundreds Of Medications In National Initiative

ome came with overflowing bags; others with one prescription bottle. No matter the quantity, Morris County residents recently turned in 724 pounds of unused and unwanted medications during Prescription Drug TakeBack Day, a nationwide initiative to safely dispose of unneeded medication. A total of 372 pounds was turned in at three locations run by the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office under the direction of Prosecutor Fredric M. Knapp in Morris Township, Morris Plains and Randolph. Some 166 pounds of drugs were disposed at the Morris Plains location, 148 pounds in Randolph and 58 in Morris Township. Drugs turned in at other county

locations run by municipal police departments brought the overall Morris County total to 724 pounds. National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day is a creation of the Drug Enforcement Administration of the U.S. Justice Department. It offers the public a convenient and safe way to dispose of unneeded drugs and to raise awareness of the opioid epidemic. The program enables individuals to turn in expired prescriptions and over-thecounter medications into secure drop boxes. The method is a safe, convenient and responsible way to dispose of drugs. The collected medication gets incinerated by the DEA. Another take-back day will be scheduled in the

fall. The initiative not only gave people a chance to clean out their medicine cabinets, it got unneeded drugs out of circulation and lessened the risk of addiction. Prosecutor Knapp said, “This program has proven to be an effective method for the appropriate discarding of unused and unwanted medications. Curbing the abuse of medications not only benefits individuals, but benefits society as a whole.” “We appreciate the efforts of the prosecutor and his staff and local police departments to organize this effective program,’’ said Morris County Freeholder Tom Mastrangelo, the county governing board’s liaison

on law and public safety issues. “Getting these drugs out of circulation means there is less chance of them falling into the wrong hands.’’ Knapp and Morris County Prosecutor’s Office Chief

of Investigations John R. Speirs offered thanks to Morris County Sheriff James Gannon, Morris Plains Police Chief Jason A. Kohn, Morris Township Police Chief John McGuinness and Randolph Police Chief

David Stokoe for their departments’ participation in this program. For more information, contact Public Information Officer Fred Snowflack at pressinquiry@co.morris. nj.us or at (973) 829-8159.

Stoney Brook Community Farm Now Open

By Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta new farm in Hanover Township will give local residents the opportunity to grow fresh, local produce. There was a ribbon cutting for the new Stoney Brook Community Farm set to be held on Sat., May 13. “Everything is brand new,” said Denise Brennan, superintendent of Recreation and Park Administration of the Stoney Brook Community Farm and Garden. She explained that there are 140 plots which are 4x16 feet, designed in a grid. “There are water hydrants for residents to use, a garden shed for them

to use, or they can bring their own,” Brennan said. “There’s a site for a pavilion, a learning area for the schools. Four plots are reserved for schools, four plots are reserved for seniors and disabled, with raised beds. Towards the back of the farm there’s a compost area.” Growing season is from May to the end of October and it’s a $50 fee to purchase a plot. Brennan said that there will be a meeting for everyone who purchased a plot, with a master gardener who will go over the rules. “They can get plots and start gardening now,” said Brennan. “The weather’s been so bad, it’s put us behind. It’s been very muddy.”

There are various reasons why locals would want to purchase a lot. Brennan said, “Some people don’t have any sun to garden. Lots of condos don’t have yards. It’s a slice of heaven here, if they are looking to garden. It’s going to be a nice addition to the community.” So far, less than half of the plots are sold, but Brennan feels that once the word gets out, the plots will “sell out.” The community garden came to be thanks to a grant in the amount of $20,000 from the National Institute of Health, which provided for seed money and the township designated area of land off Jefferson Road. Brennan said, “The mayor was really interest-

ed in having a community garden. We have a program called ‘The Mayor’s Wellness Campaign’ for residents of all ages. It’s a healthy activity. At the end of the season we had a garden-to-table event prepared with a meal from the gar-

den. It’s part of the healthy living campaign.” In addition to the grant money, the Rotary Club donated shovels and wheelbarrows for everybody’s use; and woodchips were donated by Greenwood Trees.

“Eat your cookie and keep your waistline too!”

Last year the basic work was done, setting up the garden. Now it’s fenced and they are doing the different touches. “The idea is that a community is only as healthy as its residents,” said Brencontinued on page 9

bring those memories to the digital era- they can be lost forever and certainly not duplicated for more than one family member to own. Legacy Maker is the trusted handler who packages up memories like these or helps the client do it themselves, to get them to a memory factory so specialized technicians can clean, image and duplicate these memories in to digital format. Legacy Maker helps to make sure they’re safely returned to the client, along with a DVD copy and -even better- a private online account to allow access anytime from any mobile device or computer- forever. The best part is how families are sharing how they rediscover lost trea-

sures and find tremendous joy sharing them with loved ones. Just last year, Legacy Republic added a beautiful, premium Keepsakes collection. This is a special platform inside the personal Family Legacy account that allows the client to choose any images, to have them printed on high quality canvases, mini photo books, cubes and more. “We call it “life as art” because bringing those legacy moments into your décor is a wonderful way to celebrate a relationship not just in the virtual world, but in your home or work space!” There are three opportunities to engage with Legacy Republic. May brings an extra special opportuni-

ty to join this business and earn not only income from meaningful work, but have a chance to earn a free trip to California for an annual convention called a “Reunion.” The second way to get involved is by having a few friends get together to share some fun legacy moments with each other and give them the chance to

start their own legacy. It’s an hour of meaningful time together, with a reduced rate or even free to the organizer. Last option, become a customer today and start a Family Legacy account, to have and share- forever! Open Mon.-Fri., 9 a.m.3 p.m.; call 973-801-7091 for an appointment; visit. www.photofunkris.com.

Basketball Event Brings Entertaining Night And Profit To WPHS

By Cheryl Conway ans who attend Whippany Park High School sporting events may be in for a new treat with the renovation of a new snack stand at the football field. Proceeds from a recent Harlem Wizards event at the school are earmarked to redo the schools Snack House. More like a basketball show, the Harlem Wizards’ games have been raising funds for schools and nonprofits, while entertaining, competing and performing tricks since 1962 Sponsored by the Whippany Park Booster Club, the Harlem Wizards visited Whippany Park High School on April 7, attracting almost 600 students, teachers and families in the

area. The last time the Harlem Wizards came to play at the school was four years ago, according to Carol Flanagan, Booster Club president. Flanagan helped chair this year’s event along with Sharon Ferraiuolo, co-president of the booster club. Whether or not anyone was paying attention to the game, the evening was quite entertaining when the Harlem Wizards competed against their opposing team made up of teachers from the local schools including Whippany Park High School, Memorial Jr. School and Salem Dr. School, as well as our Police Chief Mark Roddy, says Flanagan. Tickets cost $20 for adults and $15 for students,

raising more than $12,000, says Flanagan. Plans are “to redo our snack house,” says Flanagan, with estimated renovation costs to be about $15,000. “It has not be renovated in over 15 years,” explains Flanagan. “We still have the original equipment. The building was built in 1969

and not much has changed. The Booster Club will be renovating the entire snack house with all new cabinets, counter tops and appliances. The snack shack is on our newly renovated football field at 165 Whippany Road, Whippany. We offer drinks, candy, pretzels, hot foods and now we will be able to offer much

more.” Besides the money that was raised, a good time was shared by those who attended. “We all loved it, we all had a great time!” says Flanagan. She enjoyed most, “watching all the kids come on the court and take part in the event.”

The Booster Club is appreciative to all who helped make the event a success. “Thank you to all who helped our event,” says Flanagan, who “would like to thank The Whippany Fire Dept., and the Cedar Knolls EMT’s for coming out to help keep our event safe. Also a huge thank you to all who donated to our event.”

degree in fine arts with a focus on videography and photography and a minor in psychology from Rutgers University as well as a master’s degree in art therapy from Pratt Institute, New York City. The idea was hatched when a young mother in a neighboring community died of lung cancer, leaving behind a husband and children under the age of five. “It struck me, as a mother of young kids, that these kids would never know the sound of their mom’s voice,’’ Glass says. “They’d never know advice she had to share. I thought, ‘what if I could help people leave a piece of themselves behind?’’’

She then reached out to a friend who had lost his mother when he was young. What did he think of the idea? He said it would have been a wonderful thing to have and he wished he’d had something like that to remember his mother by, she recalled. A few calls to area hospitals, hospices, nursing homes in the Millburn area, and Memories Live began. That was more than six years ago. Now a full-time job for Glass, most of the work gets done while her two children are in school, during evenings and on weekends. When she first began, she handed subjects a 20page questionnaire, though

people told her it was a bit too much. “Now I have one page of questions for them,’’ she says. “I have all those other questions in my head, so it’s not so overwhelming.’’ Her clients’ average age is 55, and the youngest subject she’s filmed was 22 years old. “I really only offer this to adults,’’ she says, noting that it is most valuable to those who are leaving behind very young family members. “It’s for the child who didn’t’ get to know their parents,’’ she says. “They may see parts of their parents in themselves that they might not have been able to see, a dimple, the way they like their coffee; it will hopefully fill some kind of void, preserve a memory. Those of us who are so blessed to have our loved ones here take it for granted.’’ July will mark her seventh year in business. To date, she’s filmed more than 130 individuals. The only requirement is for a subject to have a life-limiting, terminal illness. “I don’t ask for a doctor’s note,’’ she says. “I just go with ‘”honesty is the best policy.’’’ Glass said she’s willing to travel anywhere within a two-hour radius of her Millburn home. She funds her enterprise through grants, donations and an annual fundraiser, which took place last month. There is

no charge for her service. When she sits down with a subject, usually in their home, the conversation is wide-ranging. “We’ll start talking about grandparents, memories of grandparents,’’ Glass explains. “Then, we’ll talk about their childhood, fond memories, schooling, college and advice for high school, advice for them to share about college, about your first job interview. We touch on every stage of life. Then, I’ll ask them about what makes them, them – favorite foods, season, music, holiday - all the things that mold them into who they are.’’ Glass then spends hours combining the interview footage with music and family photos, creating a meaningful movie. The final product is delivered to the family in DVD format. The job can be at times painful and emotionally draining, she admits. “It affects me if I’m

sitting across the camera from someone my age who has kids my kids’ age,’’ she says. “But, I walk into these people’s homes as a stranger and I leave as a friend. It’s really rewarding, and people are so grateful that the good outweighs the bad.’’ Glass is hoping to acquire some funding through a contest she entered with a local Keller Williams Real Estate Agency, which is offering to donate proceeds from their 100th home sale to a local charity. Twelve non-profits are competing for $20,000 in prize money, to be divided among the top vote getters in an online contest. To vote for Memories Live, visit sueadler. com. Anyone interested in having a movie made, should call 646-245-1698; email Glass at Kerry. glass@memorieslive.org; or visit the website, www. memorieslive.org.

The Best Time To Plant A Tree Was 20 Years Ago, The Next Best Time Is Now

lanting a tree is a lifelong investment. How well this investment grows depends on the type of tree selected and the planting location, the care provided during planting, and the follow-up care after planting. Getting your new tree off to a healthy start will help the tree mature to its full size and ensures it will provide environmental, economic, and social benefits throughout its lifetime. When to Plant Ideally, trees are planted during the dormant season – in the fall after leaf drop or in early spring before budbreak. Weather conditions are cool and allow plants to establish roots in the new location before spring rains and summer heat stimulate new top growth. Healthy balled and burlapped or container trees, however, can be planted throughout the growing season if given appropriate care. Planting Stress Balled and burlapped trees lose a significant portion of their root system when dug at the nursery. As a result, trees com-

monly exhibit what is known as “transplant shock.” Transplant shock is a state of slowed growth and reduced vitality following transplanting. Container trees may also experience transplant shock, particularly if they have circling or kinked roots that must be cut. Proper site preparation, careful handling to prevent further root damage, and good follow-up care reduces transplant shock and promotes faster recovery. Right Tree – Right Place Planning before planting can help ensure that the right tree is planted in the right place. Proper tree selection and placement enhance your property value and prevent costly maintenance trimming and damage to your home. Please contact our Certified Arborist’s at Greenwood Tree and Lawn to discuss which tree and placement is best for your property Mulching Mulches are materials placed over the soil surface to maintain moisture and improve soil conditions. Mulching is one of the most beneficial acts a homeowner can

do for the health of a tree. However, improper mulching materials and practices may have little, or even negative, impact on the trees in your landscape. Greenwood Tree and Lawn is a Hanover, family owned tree and turf care firm with New Jersey Certified Tree Experts and licensed pesticide technicians on staff

to help with any of your planting, tree and turf care needs. The Dubee, Woytas families and their many dedicated employees have taken care of the trees and lawns for their many North Jersey customers for 47 years.

County Officials Get Wheels Rolling To Halt Drug Addiction

By Cheryl Conway new initiative launched in Morris County last month is bringing services directly to local individuals struggling with addiction. The Morris County Sheriff’s Office Community Services Unit, in partnership with the Morris County Department of Human Services, the Mental Health Association of Morris County, Morris County Prevention is Key and its Center for Addiction Recovery Education and Success, launched Hope One Mobile Recovery Access Center on Mon., April 3, at the Morristown Green. Hope One, a white van traveling to different locations twice weekly throughout the county, is serving as a mobile recovery access center to provide critical support for those addicted to drugs. As a means to address the rise in opioid related deaths, the goal of Hope One is to help prevent drug overdoses and deaths in Morris County, especially to individuals who are alone and do not know

where to run for help. “I compare it to the model of the book mobile,” explains Morris County Sheriff James M. Gannon. “We are providing services into the community,” to those of all ages “who are at risk, have no place to go, have no support.” Gannon came up with the idea for Hope One while meeting with individuals in 2016 during his campaign for sheriff. “I spoke to the people in the community and one of their top concerns was the opioid epidemic. It affects all ages. It’s not an issue that just affects children; it’s an issue that affects everyone,” with fatalities ages 17 to 79 in Morris County, says Gannon. “I said let’s take it on the road,” says Gannon. “I have a vehicle; take off police marks; let’s bring services to the people.” The priority areas include “at risk populations” such as the homeless, soup kitchens and “places where people are known” to be using opioids, says Gannon. The vehicle, which previously had been used for

tactical operations, “looks like an old bread truck,” describes Gannon. It is a white van with purple ribbon. “Purple is for recovery,” says Gannon. “We go out with a few folks in plain clothes, licensed clinician, certified peer recovery specialist, someone whose walked the walk;” who is closer to the problem, can speak with people, can offer them one on one. “Our belief in recovery begins with conversation,” says Gannon. With that in mind, a licensed clinician and a certified peer recovery specialist is staffing the Hope One center. “These individuals understand the needs of those who suffer from addiction and they will be best equipped to deal one on one with members of our communities,” the press release states. Hope One staff will have pre-established services and available beds at various treatment centers for potential clients. The team will be equipped to connect the client with the appropriate services and/or facility and arrange for im-

mediate transportation. “I’m not here to take you to jail,” says Gannon. “I’m here to take you to the road to recovery. This is about getting those struggling with addiction off the street, and immediately connected with services, with the goal of returning them to be productive members of society and drug free. What makes this program unique is that the Hope One mobile recovery access center services are client driven. We travel to the client; they do not come to us. In addition, we are removing many of the barriers, which often times prevent our people, as well as family members, the ability to get the necessary help and into rehab. It is all about Hope.”

The Hope One mobile recovery access center is equipped with various resources and pre-established connections to critical services including treatment, recovery support and behavioral health, according to a press release. On board is food, coffee, a charging station and cell phone chargers, says Gannon. Since its first trip on April 3, Hope One has contacted 250 people and has placed seven in treatment centers in Morris County and beyond, says Gannon. The van goes out for five hours a day on Mondays and Thursdays to all cities in the county. “These are cold calls; we go out into the commu-

nity without knowing anyone,” says Gannon. “If it’s quiet we’ll move to another location.” The cost to run this program is about $300,000, says Gannon. Officials submitted a grant to the Federal Bureau of Justice. Until then, Hope One is being paid for by money seized from Morris County drug dealers through the Drug Forfeiture program. “Drug dealers are paying for drug users,” says Gannon. The numbers of opioid related deaths are up considerably this year as compared to this same time in 2016, Gannon confirms. During the first three months this year in Morris continued on page 15

continued from page 14 County, there were 24 fatal opioid overdoses, compared to nine in the first quarter of 2016, says Gannon. In addition, during the first quarter of 2017, Narcan was administered by the police in Morris County 45 times, compared to 122 times in the calendar year of 2016, according to the press release. CARES is offering free Narcan kits and training to the public on the Hope One vehicle. People on site are being trained to save a life, explains Gannon. This could be a family member or friend of an addict. “They are getting kits and learning how to use it,” he says. Hope One is an affective program, Gannon says.

“The difference is this. “It’s wonderful to have hotlines; it’s great to have programs,” but difficult for those who have an addiction to navigate, to call a hotline or find a website for help. “It’s very difficult for someone suffering an addiction,” says Gannon. “We are coming on location and providing these services, as long as the person is willing to take that first step, those willing to get treatment. We go to them, we don’t wait for them to come to us.” Gannon says the program is successful so far because of all its supporters. “The support that I’ve received from Morris County Adminstrators, Department of Human Services, Chief of Police As-

sociation, CARES, that’s why it’s so successful.” The Morris County prosecutor, “he recognized opioids as a disease.” Louis A. Schwarz, president and CEO of the Mental Health Association of Morris County, says “Hope One is truly a unique partnership between law enforcement and the addiction and mental health communities in truly addressing the deadly problem of drug abuse in our community. We are looking forward to serving people where they are: on the streets, in shelters, in motels, and in other places where people are drinking and drugging.” Morris County Prosecutor Fredric Knapp says, “The cost in human lives has been devastating due to the ongoing heroin and opi-

oid epidemic. The Morris County Prosecutor’s Office has been at the forefront educating the public as well as employing traditional law enforcement efforts with our municipal, county, state and federal partners in battling this scourge. We must now, even more importantly focus our efforts on destigmatizing addiction and providing treatment for those plagued by this disease. The recovery coach program we are embarking upon is focused on that urgent need. The efforts of Sheriff Gannon are commendable in this unique approach battling addiction.” Peer Recovery Specialist Alton Robinson said, “This is a win-win for all involved. Never in Morris County has there been such

an innovative initiative to give individuals the opportunity to be heard and have access to services they otherwise would not have had. We are offering individuals hope!” If a person in need of services sees the vehicle, Gannon says “flag us down. Call the sheriff’s office if you want us to come to you: 973-285-6600. Hope

One welcomes anyone affected by addiction and behavioral health to look out for the truck. The folks requiring services will be brought to a treatment facility or program, and not jail. We’re here for you,” stated Gannon. For further information on CARES, contact 973625-1143.

Celebrate 100 Years With Hildale Park Presbyterian Church

By Dawn M. Chiossi ildale Park Presbyterian Church in Cedar Knolls will be celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. One hundred years- the idea is almost too much to comprehend- every second of that time is filled with a myriad of events, people, news and doings. These can be life changing as in the case of technology or research; or they can be historic, or just ordinary, intriguing details. The passage of time affects everything, even towns and buildings. No matter what the outcome, all of them make up the fabric that makes up a tapestry for an amazing life. They all make their own stories. One hundred years ago, the surroundings of Hildale Park Presbyterian Church were quite different than it is today. Like much of the area, and many areas of New Jersey, the land was mostly trees and fields. The land was naked and undeveloped. Ridgedale Ave., where the church now stands, was simply a dirt road. Historically, amazingly, the church was originally a small chapel purchased from the Sears Catalog for $400. The land was donated by George Hild; he also donated the land for the Cedar Knolls Fire Department located across the street. A group of optimistic residents and vacationers

changed all that. Envisioning good things about the village’s future, they founded the church itself. From a tiny chapel, to the amazing place of worship it is today, the folks from the Hildale Park Presbyterian Church are elated to have a centennial celebration and everyone is invited. According to Pastor Ross Lang of Hildale, he is excited to be participating in such a momentous event. Lang is a relatively new edition to the church, having been there for more than a year. “It is interesting to be on the cusp of an event like this,” he enthuses. “We are all so excited.” Personable and friendly, Lang is eager to share what he knows regarding the 100 year celebration. Lang tells an intriguing story about one of the oldest members of the church who had recently passed away. “She actually remembers talking to the founder George Hild himself,” he says. Hild was born in 1866. As everyone knows, with all great birthdays and anniversaries, it is always best to keep celebrating. Hildale’s will be no different as it will be celebrating 100 years with a series of events throughout the year. The celebration is already underway and many people were thrilled to have enjoyed the free concert featuring master Jazz pianist and native of Morris-

town Rio Clemente, known as the Bishop of Jazz, who has served as music director for the Generations of Jazz Program of the New Jersey Jazz Society. Other delights slated so far for Hildale’s historic 100 year milestone include a petting zoo, games, food trucks, a dunk tank and so much more. As Lang teases, “Hildale’s celebration is going to be in the spirit of 100 years ago.” In speaking to Lang, he tells an interesting story about how when the church first came into being in 1917, the folks at Hildale had a carnival featuring rides to raise awareness about the town, and he hopes the same for this year’s celebration. He is excited about acquiring a picture of George Hild. Lang shares that they did not have one, and the members of the Fire Department across the street graciously gave him one, as Hild was the first fire chief of the town. Lang praises the committee of the church involved with this centennial celebration. “We have all sorts of generational lines in the church,” he remarks. “People from 80 years old to 14 are involved. It really is a group effort,” he says proudly. In addition to the celebration which is slated for July 15, there also is a prayer service set to be held

on Sun., July 16. According to Lang, this will be a “time to remember those who passed away who are significant in a person’s life

and to have the chance to pray and put the focus on doing mission work for the community.” This great event is open

to all. For further information or details, call Hildale Park Presbyterian Church at 973-539-1152.

More Than A Century Later, Electric Cars Come Full Circle At Thomas Edison National Park

By Jennifer Walkup brand new electric car charging station opened at Thomas Edison National Park in West Orange on April 19. More than a century after inventor Thomas Edison parked his own 1914 Detroit Electric car at his factory on Main Street, a new technological innovation was implemented with the installation of this electric car charging station. This project was made possible by a partnership between the National Park Service, the National Park Foundation, the US Energy Department and BMW. One hundred electric charging stations will be installed in national parks throughout the country. “The partnership between The National Park Service, National Park Foundation, BMW, and the Department of Energy made this possible,” said Thomas Ross, National Park Service superintendent. “This will allow electric cars to travel to and around national parks.” The partnership aims to get more electric vehicles into national parks, rather than relegating electric vehicles to urban areas where charge stations are more easily accessible. This project fosters electric vehicle travel and will raise awareness about electric vehicle technology and plug-in electric vehicles for millions of park visitors. This project will reduce air pollution in national parks and gateway communities. “We are interested in supporting both electric cars as well as having a

positive impact on the environment,” said Ross. “Having the charging stations in the parks will support that. Some parks are many miles of roadways. At this time, we do not have the infrastructure to support electric vehicles in those places. This will change that.” The electric vehicle charging station in West Orange is located in the laboratory complex’s visitor parking area. The program’s first charging station installation was chosen for the Thomas Edison National Park because of Edison’s inventive nature and his work with electric cars. “We were proud to launch the national program here in West Orange,” said Ross. “We have two level-two charging stations at the laboratory complex on Main Street. There is a great historical connection. Thomas Edison was very interested in electric cars. It really has come full circle.” In the mid-1890s, Edison worked on an electric storage battery for use in electric cars. The park has three of his electric cars in its collection, two Detroit electric vehicles from 1913 and a loco mobile from 1905 which was converted from steam to electric. At Glenmont, Edison’s home, which is also open to visitors, Edison’s own original car charging station resides in the garage. This charging station was built by Edison in 1904. “We want to offer the charging station to visitors of the park but also to our community in West Orange,” said Ross. “We worked closely with the

town and with the West Orange environmental committee as well.” Most stations are two to three miles away in Montclair and near Turtleback Zoo. This new charging station is right in the center of town on Main Street and also near route 280. Courtesy of BMW, the charging station at the Thomas Edison site will operate for free for the first six months. The program will continue to add electric car charging stations throughout national parks during the next two years. They will determine where to install the charging stations based on the strength and proximity of local electric car markets, the location of other nearby charging stations, as well as various considerations regarding the landscape of the parks. This partnership supports the National Park Foundation’s Centennial Campaign for America’s National Parks which aims to strengthen and enhance the future of America’s natural, historical and cultural treasures for the next 100 years. The mission aspires to do so by protecting America’s treasured places, connecting everyone from all backgrounds with the country’s incomparable natural landscapes, rich history, vibrant culture, as well as inspiring lifelong relationships with national parks, and creating the next great generation of park visitors and stewards. The NPS is responsible for the stewardship of America’s natural treasures and historic sites. Innovation, entrepreneurship and

technology are key parts of its mission and story. Modern transportation produces emissions that affect clear skies and scenic views and make it challenging for the NPS to fulfill its mission to preserve natural, historic, and cultural resources unimpaired for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations. The NPS has more than 20,000 employees that care for America’s 417 national parks. The National Park Foundation is the charity and philanthropic arm of

the NPS. This nonprofit foundation aims to protect the more than 84 million acres of national parks through conservation and preservation. The NPS has worked with The US Department of energy on this and other projects in support of the DOE’s Clean cities program by supporting local actions to reduce energy, emissions and petroleum use in transportation. The benefits of these projects will be far reaching for the nation. Visitors of The Thomas

Edison National Historical Park will be able to view the new charging station along with the large variety of other offerings at the park. The site preserves the last and largest of Edison’s laboratories, home of the perfected phonograph, motion pictures and the nickel-iron alkaline storage battery. The museum collection has more than 400,000 artifacts including Edison products, laboratory equipment, and personal belongings of the Edisons.

Local Priest Accomplishes “More Than Expected” In 50 Years

By Stefanie Sears ather Louis Caputo is celebrating his 50th anniversary as a priest, also known as the Golden Jubilee. Caputo is currently stationed at the Vocationist Fathers in Florham Park since the development’s 1988 conception. He also is a parochial vicar at St. Nicholas Roman Catholic Church in Palisades Park, where he has reinstated the Vocationist Apostles of Universal Sanctification and the Friends of Father Justin’s groups. Caputo, who grew up in Naples, Italy, entered the Vocationary seminary there at age 12 in September 1953. His inspiration to join the priesthood was rooted in the lack of priests at his parish St. Bartolomeo in Italy. According Caputo, joining the seminary at such a young

age was very common at the time. “Everybody was flocking to the seminaries after grammar school, which went up to fifth grade in Italy in the small town villages,” Caputo explains of his childhood, “So to go to higher education, one either went to the seminary or to find lodging in the larger city. But I wanted to be a priest even before that. I felt that people were complaining. The people felt the need for a priest. Maybe that’s when it started, when I was maybe 9 or 10 years old. I saw it as a need. There’s somebody missing in town without the priest. There are many small towns that really can’t have a priest all to themselves.” Caputo made his religious vows in October 1959 and began his theological studies at the Pontifical University of St. Luigi. He

completed his lyceum undergraduate studies in 1962 and then came to America in 1965 where he again completed his studies at the Seminary of the Third Order Regular of the Franciscan Fathers in Loreto, Pa., in 1967. Finally, he was ordained at the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Newark on May 27, 1967. Caputo has accomplished much throughout his 50-year career, especially involving education. While serving as a parochial vicar at St. James in Penns Grove, he studied at Glassboro State College, now Rowan University, and received his Masters in Education in 1971. He then proceeded to teach languages in secondary schools. In Penns Grove he taught Italian and Spanish and in Carney’s Point he taught Spanish and Latin. He continues his use of multiple languages now-

adays by celebrating Mass in English, Italian, and Portuguese. Caputo spent a good portion of his life serving 27 years in Newark. In August 1973 he was transferred to Our Lady of Perpetual Help. He also continued teaching, this time English as a Second Language at Webster Junior High School, and worked in the Diaconate Program for the Archdiocese. But it was St. Michael’s where he had most of his memorable experiences. In 1977, Our Lady of Perpetual Help was merged with St. Michael’s and Father Louis was appointed parish Treasurer Director and school principal. About a decade later in June 1989 he was elected as St. Michael’s pastor. Wanting to improve St. Michael’s, under his pastorship they added to the school a third floor, which eventually consisted of benefits such as a large library, a computer lab, and music, to help increase the student body, bought property along Broadway to build a big parking lot for the church, and also renovated the rectory in 1995 by expanding it and building new offices, chapel, and the parish hall. “They were wonderful years. I loved them all,” says Caputo. “We had plenty of opportunities there. The community really boomed because the Spanish were flocking there. Certainly it was one of the most active parishes in the Archdiocese. We brought the school to a population of 650 in 2000. It was 250 in 1977.” His additional achievements include when he was an U.S. Army chaplain from

1974 to 1994 and retired as lieutenant colonel. He has received various awards for this honor. On July 29, 2000, he was named the Superior General of the Society of Divine Vocations and served this position for two six-year terms. “We believe that life is a vocation,” Caputo explains about the Vocationist Fathers, “Vocation is what you do out of love. And usually we say that the successful person makes a job or profession of vocation. If you can do out of love what you do to make a living, you will be successful. Everybody has a vocation to life, to faith, and to holiness. My goal is to help people to discover their calling in life and help them to follow it.” This means taking this idea internationally. In 1985, Caputo began plans to start a vocationist mission in Africa and officially installed it in Nigeria in 1991. He was also in charge of the mission in India from 1996 to 2000. Other missions he sprouted are in Colombia, Madagascar, Indonesia, Chile, Ecuador, Indonesia, the Philippines, and the United Kingdom, among others. Of all of these, India is his favorite “because of the simplicity and the goodness of the people, the devotion to faith, and their honesty.” After his run as Superior General, he transferred to Rome to aide the Vocationist Fathers there. But of all of these, what does he believe is his greatest legacy? Caputo points at a painting of Blessed Father Justin Russolillo hanging on the wall. “Father Justin,” he

says, “Blessed Father Justin. He’s my inspiration and my social strength. He was the founder of our congregation. He was alive when I joined, so I lived two years in the same house with him before he died.” Russolillo was the founder the Society of Divine Vocations and Caputo had met him at the Vocationary all those years ago. Caputo was actually Russolillo’s fourth successor as Superior General of the congregation. “If I had to look at my accomplishments, the greatest has been publishing all of his writings,” Caputo says. “I published 26 volumes of his writings in Italian and then six, seven volumes that I translated and published in English.” “Presiding over his beatification, the stage before sainthood, was I think the highlight of my priesthood,” continues Caputo. “Preparing and running the beatification ceremony was really something extraordinary of something you have known.” Having had such a fulfilled life, what is next on Caputo’s list? “I have accomplished much more than I expected,” he answers, “Honestly I am thankful that I am 76 years old and am still kicking. I’m still surviving and still happy and thankful to be around.”
