Livingston Mom Holds Very Successful Diaper Drive

W

By Steve Sears ith a young son nearing his first birthday, Livingston’s Sara Franks certainly experienced the need for diapers in 2021. In the fall, she turned her heart towards helping others by starting a Diaper Drive for The Apostles’ House in Newark, New Jersey. “We’re super, super excited by the response that it’s getting,” Franks said in November, when the number of collected diapers had hit 20,000. And she had additional good news during this interview. “Hello Bello, which is a diaper company founded by Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard…they got word of the effort. They are donating 140 packs of diapers directly, and they shared the drive last night on their Instagram, which is really amazing. So, we’re hoping that that helps to get the word out even more.” The diapers that have filled the Franks home have been donated to The Apostles’ House, a non-profit whose mission is (courtesy of their website), “devoted to providing comprehensive social services to homeless women and children and individuals or families at risk of homelessness in Newark and Essex County, New Jersey.” Franks, 33, had planned on holding the drive until Thanksgiving, but then extended it to the end of the year. She will happily accept donations beyond the new year as well. The Apostles’ House also accepts donations directly from the public. Franks, who is able to have a supply of diapers and formula for her young son, realized that there are others not so fortunate. Therefore, she set a calendar reminder continued on page 2

continued from front page for herself to plan and set up her holiday season endeavor. “I figured diapers were something that everyone can relate to,” Franks says. “It’s been tremendous, and I think a lot of people can identify with all the supplies that go towards taking care of a kid.” Franks also adds that the timing for her Diaper Drive was made more relevant due to COVID-19. “It was sort of interesting, because we had our son during the pandemic. Obviously, during that time, families had been really hit hard, from a financial perspective with job losses and so forth, and costs had also gone up for products that are manufactured with certain material, like diapers. So, it was sort of an interesting time for the effort as well.” Franks and her husband tapped their entire network of family and friends, and their many colleagues shared news of the Diaper Drive on social media. Franks adds, “I can say a lot of attention and support has come from the local area. I’ve shared the details on multiple Facebook groups for local families and moms in particular,

and that’s been really well received. We’ve also gotten some great local media coverage, and I think that’s also helped to rally folks locally.” Franks also mentions that, when she opens all the different packages received via her Amazon page, gift messages are sometimes enclosed with the diapers. “When we get packages from people that we don’t know the names of, that kind of goes to show the strength of storytelling in the area. People really want to participate.” Franks also cites that there are folks who have embraced her idea and started diaper drives of their own. “I have a mom friend in New York City who activated something similar for another organization, and another family is looking into starting something in the Philadelphia area. My hope is that people contribute to this cause and help with diapers for The Apostles’ House, but that they also are inspired to give back to other organizations and other communities across the country, whether that’s diapers or otherwise.”

I Remember Dad: The Ghost of the White-Tailed Pony

By Richard Mabey Jr. have been all so reluctant to write about this little chapter of my dad’s life. Well, not so much just of my dad’s life, but of a legend, a most haunting and eerie legacy of the Mabey family. As most of you know, my dad was born and raised in the home that his father built at the end of Mabey Lane. There was once a large, open meadow lying between the home at the end of Mabey Lane and the old Mabey Homestead facing Route 202. My grandfather crowned this beautiful open field as “Earl’s Meadow.” For it was the very land upon which Grandpa’s brother, Earl Mabey, was planning on building a home upon, when he came home from fighting in World War I. Sadly, Great Uncle Earl was killed in action in France. Growing up in Lincoln Park, my dad and his brothers had a most wonderful blessing in their childhood. They owned a pony! How the pony came to be the prideful property of my dad and his brothers had many legacies to it. My grandfather often told the story that his eldest son, Bud, had won the pony in a poker game. My cousins and I would sit at Grandpa’s feet, as he would tell this story, complete with animation and dramatic voice flexion. This story would always infuriate my grandmother because she was dead set against gambling.

Then there was a legendary story that Grandpa simply bought the pony from one his cousins who lived along the Mabey Lane in Towaco. Still another, more haunting and eerie family legacy, is that one day the pony simply walked out from the woods at the end of Mabey Lane and took a strong liking to my dad and his brothers. Everything in my heart and soul tells me that the story that Grandpa simply purchased the pony from one of his cousins, is the core truth. Here is where the story takes on a most eerie and haunting twist. My great grandmother, Dora Mabey, owned and managed a little ice cream parlor at the corner of Route 202 and Mabey Lane. In 1959, Dad added on a few rooms to the old ice cream parlor, and it became the home of his brother Dave and wife Sue, and their two children, young Dave, and Kathy. Sadly, the “Little House” as everyone called it, no longer stands. Great Grandma Dora would often fondly talk about the white-tailed pony. I remember as a young child, sitting on the front porch of the old Mabey Homestead, with my sister and my cousins. My great grandmother would tell us about the white-tailed pony. How she simply loved that little pony and how it would walk up Mabey Lane, on its own, two or three times a day to get the

gift of a carrot from her. Sadly, the pony passed away in 1944. My grandmother, Bertha Storms Mabey, often said that the pony simply died of a broken heart. That it missed my dad and his brother, Edward, so very much while they were away, serving their country during World War II. Grandpa simply accounted for the precious pony’s passing to old age. For nobody really knew how old the pony really was. At any rate, here is where the story gets to be a bit of a Twilight Zone tale. Great Grandma Dora often told the story that she would be sitting on the front porch of her ice cream parlor, and she would hear the distinct cadence of the pony walking up Mabey Lane, even after the beloved pony passed away. Even my dad hinted that after he came home from World War II, from time to time, he heard the clip clop of his endearing white-tailed pony walking up Mabey Lane. And, yes, even my grandfather told stories that he had also heard the clip clop sound of the ghost of the family pony, walking up Mabey Lane. From the time I was 10 years old till I was about 13, my pals and I would often sleep out in my backyard, along Mabey Lane, during the summer months. I don’t know if it was just my vivid imagination, but I did

continued from page 6 falling deeply into sleep. Some of my buddies also attested to hearing the sound of the ghostly pony’s hoofs, in the midst of the summer nights. Is it possible that a pony’s love for its family, brought its specter form back from the grave? Can the love between an animal and a person ever be limited? Does love ever die? Who among us can say for certain, that there is not an ethereal world that lies between earth and Heaven’s Gate? I really don’t know the answers. But I do know that my family truly loved the white-tailed pony. That it brought great joy to all of their lives. Hold dear and true the faith of a life beyond this physical world. Try to see life as a most unlimited thing that cannot be boxed in, in any way, shape, or form. Love knows no limitations. It is a force, an essence, a spirit that abounds in heart, mind, and soul. For love has infinite possibilities. Can science really understand the wonders, the power, the infinite possibilities of the loving heart? Is there a tie between people and animals that will never be truly, fully understood by the human mind? For truly, love is the greatest gift a person can give to another living being.

Livingston Entrepreneur Pens Children’s Book

By Evan Wechman any Livingston residents might not recognize their neighbor Barry Farber when they pass him on the street. However, Farber is a best-selling author, sales trainer, and a radio show host among other things. This serial entrepreneur who has been living in Livingston for about 25 years started his career going business to business selling copiers. He did not know at the time he would be writing a children’s book in the future. In the book titled “The Adventures of Little Billy in Search of The Magic Tree,” Farber made incredible strides in sharing the lessons to success in life through various animals. The main character, Billy, while interacting with colorful characters such as Bosco the Bear is exposed to positive character traits. Such traits served Farber well in his professional career helping businesses acquire sales and keeping customers happy. This gave the Livingston author a strong desire to share his teachings to children in an engaging and thoughtful manner. During the process of creating the book, Farber wanted to incorporate attributes into animals so he would not come across as “preaching “ to the children. Rather, he wanted to be more “subtle” and have his

readers grow close to the animals and learn the lessons in a fun way. Farber has noted the adventure which Little Billy undertakes to find the magic tree is often compared to the classic story of Dorothy in “The Wizard of Oz.” Such high compliments have helped make Farber’s children’s book debut a success. Farber’s desire to enrich learning for himself and others can be traced back to a class called “Learning Techniques” he took at County College of Morris which studied the best ways for the mind to work. He was so fascinated by the class that he committed himself to learning many different subjects and helping as many people as possible. Even when he was just selling copiers as a young adult, he made sure to learn about the mechanics of the machines and followed up with his clients even on nights and weekends. “I love to help people,” said Farber. Despite such humble beginnings, Farber absorbed himself in helping others learn how to succeed in business because “the most important thing in the world is that what you are selling has value.” Farber believes he has brought value to the children and parents who read his book. Though he admits he was not a frequent reader as a child, it is something he has undertaken and wants kids to be exposed to as well. “I do know that reading to a child can

do amazing things and a child’s imagination comes alive when they are exposed to engaging books,” Farber says. Since “The Adventures of Little Billy” has had so much success in reaching students, it is in the process of being adapted into a television series where it can reach a wider audience who can learn from the lessons of the book. The author is also touched that many teachers are reading these books with children who have learning disabilities because the animals are so relatable. Readers learn to be courageous, look on the inside of people, and many more valuable teachings. Signed copies of the book are available at

the Ritz Diner in Livingston and The Original Pancake House in Caldwell. Through word of mouth, the list of places to find a copy is growing. Interested people can also go to www.shopmagictree.com and www.barryfarber.com to find out more about the book and order a signed copy. One of the great lessons in Farber’s book is about never giving up on your goals and he wants children to know they can achieve great things if they are determined. A verse from the book sums this up as Little Billy was told “never give up on a dream that could be, and you shall reach the magic tree.”

Modern Acupuncture Florham Park, NJ Makes Lives Better

odern Acupuncture® expedited strategies to adapt to the nation’s immediate needs in the healthcare sector. As the entire nation comes together to heal from the health, economic, and emotional impacts of the pandemic; they refocused to meet the new requirements of their patients, communities, and owner-operated clinics across the U.S. The company is planning awareness campaigns to appeal to a wider audience. The health crisis that swept the nation has been an eye-opener for Americans who are now researching and seeking ways to take charge of their healthcare in a proactive manner. “Our top priority has always been to make lives better through the benefits of acupuncture. Now, we are embracing the importance of health education for self-care while being advocates for our families, friends, businesses and communities” said Matt Hale, Modern Acupuncture’s Co-Founder and CEO. “Each decision we make moving forward is guided by health experts as well as our patients’ feedback and we are adjusting how we operate as needs, concerns and safety protocols continue to evolve. It will be a fluid process as we all learn, grow, and

heal together.” The company launched a pharmaceutical grade supplement line, working closely with world-renowned doctors of Chinese Medicine and western medical doctors to source the highest quality herbs, vitamins and extracts based on the latest research and efficacy outcomes. The proprietary formulas, made exclusively for Modern Acupuncture, address sleep (Modern Sleep) and fatigue (Modern Recharge), pain and inflammation (Modern Relief), stress (Modern Zen), wellness (Modern Hemp), and immune support (Modern Immune). There are no hidden fillers and each option is nonGMO, gluten and soy-free, and vegetarian. “We had been working on the formulations for close to a year, but put all resources into the launch of the nutraceutical line because people need options to support and prioritize their health needs now,” said Dr. Steve Gubernick, Co-Founder and Chief Clinical Officer. “The pharmaceutical grade supplements, especially when combined with regular acupuncture treatments, help naturally aid the immune system and combat stress, sleep issues, pain and all the emotional and physical ailments that arise from the entire country dealing with the short and long term effects of the health

crisis.” Acupuncture has been in the news with China reporting the 2,500-year-old practice, along with Chinese herbs, being used as one of the successful treatments being implemented to help patients heal from the effects of COVID-19. According to the World Health Organization, acupuncture is an all-natural, holistic treatment clinically proven to alleviate chronic pain, relieve stress, and treat various diseases and conditions. Celebrating 50 Years

“We recognize that these are very challenging times, but if we work together, we will rise even stronger,” stated Hale, who says the clinics provided nearly 1 million treatments to date. “Our goal is to be a trusted healthcare provider with an unwavering dedication to our mission while being recognized for our ability to grow and adapt in order to serve at an even higher level.” Please check modacu.com for specific clinic information.

limit their online social circles to individuals they know well and want to stay in touch with, and that can serve as a good measuring stick when deciding whether or not to accept a friend request. • Avoid sharing personal information. Seniors are no doubt aware that they should never share especially personal information, such as their Social Security number. However, seniors also should hesitate to share personal information like vacation plans. Seniors who post about upcoming trips could return home to find they’ve been victimized by criminals who scoured their social media accounts and learned when they were going to be away. A good rule of thumb is to keep personal information private and limit posts to information that is not overly specific or sensitive. • Recognize the threat posed by scammers. Social media platforms have had varying degrees of success in regard to keeping their sites scam-free. But scammers find a way, and users must take steps to avoid being victimized. Never click on a link within a post from someone you don’t know and avoid anyone soliciting donations through social media platforms. Seniors are engaging with social media more than ever. Such engagement requires seniors to be mindful of the many ways to protect their privacy when spending time online.

eniors might not be the demographic individuals initially associate with social media. However, Pew Research notes that seniors’ social media usage has been steadily rising for a number of years, proving that individuals 65 and over are not techaverse. Pew data from 2019 indicates that 46 percent of individuals 65 and older use Facebook. Social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram can be a great way to stay connected with family and friends and stay up-to-date on community events. But social media usage is not without risks, especially in regard to users’ safety. Seniors without much social media experience can heed these safety tips as they navigate popular platforms and discover all they have to offer. • Examine your account settings. Social media users can control their privacy settings so they can decide who can (and can’t) view their online activity. Each platform is different, but profiles set to public generally allow anyone to view individuals’ activity, so seniors should set their profiles to private to limit access to their information. • Be mindful of your social media social circle. It’s easy to make virtual friends via social media, but seniors should be mindful of who they accept as online friends. Carefully consider each friend request and decide just how big or small you want your social media community to be. Many individuals prefer to

NJ residents scramble to get last Walking Liberty Rolls NEW JERSEY - Once New Jersey residents got wind that New Jersey State Restricted Bank Rolls filled with Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s were being handed over, there was a mad dash to get them. That’s because some of these U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins are already worth hundreds in collector value. “It’s like a run on the banks. The phones are ringing off the hook. That’s because everyone is trying to get them before they’re all gone,” according to officials at the National Mint and Treasury who say they can barely keep up with all the orders. In fact, they had to impose a strict limit of 4 New Jersey State Restricted Bank Rolls. So, if you get the chance to get your hands on these State Restricted Bank Rolls you better hurry because hundreds of New Jersey residents already have and you don’t want to miss out. You see, the U.S. Gov’t stopped mint-

ing these Silver Walking Liberties in 1947 and there can never be any more which makes them extremely collectible. And here’s the best part. The rolls are unsearched so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value. That’s why at just the $39 state minimum set by National Mint and Treasury it’s a deal too good to pass up. But you better hurry because these New Jersey State Restricted Bank Rolls are the only ones known to exist and New Jersey residents are grabbing them up as fast as they can. That’s because they make amazing gifts for children, grandchildren and loved ones. Just imagine the look on their face when you hand them one of the State Restricted Rolls — they’ll tell everyone they know what you did for them.

■ GOT ‘EM: Residents all across New Jersey who get their hands on these State Restricted Silver Walking Liberty Bank Rolls are definitely showing them off. That’s because they are the only ones known to exist. And here’s the best part, these Bank Rolls are loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberty coins some dating back to the early 1900’s and worth up to 100 times their face value so everyone wants them.

Last State Restricted Silver Walking Liberty Bank Rolls go to New Jersey residents New Jersey residents get first dibs on last remaining Bank Rolls loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for the next 2 days STATE DISTRIBUTION: A strict limit of 4 State Restricted Bank Rolls per NJ resident has been imposed NEW JERSEY - “It’s a miracle these State Restricted Bank Rolls even exist. That’s why Hotline Operators are bracing for the flood of calls,” said Laura Lynne, U.S. Coin and Currency Director for the National Mint and Treasury. For the next 2 days the last remaining State of New Jersey Restricted Bank Rolls loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties are actually being handed over to New Jersey residents who call the State Toll-Free Hotlines listed in today’s newspaper publication. “National Mint and Treasury recently spoke with its Chief Professional Numismatist who said ‘Very few people have ever actually seen one of these rarely seen Silver Walking Liberties issued by the U.S. Gov’t back in the early 1900’s. But to actually find them sealed away in State Restricted Bank Rolls is like finding buried treasure. So anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Bank Rolls had better hold on to them,’” Lynne said. “Now that the State of New Jersey Restricted Bank Rolls are being offered up we won’t be surprised if thousands of New Jersey residents claim the maximum limit

allowed of 4 Bank Rolls per resident before they’re all gone,” said Lynne. “That’s because after the Bank Rolls were loaded with 15 rarely seen Silver Walking Liberties, each verified to meet a minimum collector grade of very good or above, the dates and mint marks of the U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars sealed away inside the State of New Jersey Restricted Bank Rolls have never been searched. But, we do know that some of these coins date clear back to the early 1900’s and are worth up to 100 times their face value, so there is no telling what New Jersey residents will find until they sort through all the coins,” Lynne went on to say. And here’s the best part. If you are a resident of the state of New Jersey you cover only the $39 per coin state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury, that’s fifteen rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties worth up to 100 times their face value for just $585 which is a real steal because non state residents must pay $118 per coin which totals $1,770 if any coins remain after the 2-day deadline. The only thing New Jersey residents need to do is call the State Toll-Free Hotlines printed in today’s newspaper publication before the 2-day order deadline ends. “Rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins like these are highly sought after, but we’ve never seen anything like this before. According to The Official Red Book, a Guide Book of United States Coins many Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars are now worth $40 - $825 each in collector value,” Lynne said. “We’re guessing thousands of New Jersey residents will be taking the maximum limit of 4 Bank Rolls because they make such amazing gifts for any occasion for children, parents, grandparents, friends and loved ones,” Lynne continued. “We know the phones will be ringing off the hook. That’s why hundreds of Hotline Operators are standing by to answer the phones beginning at 8:30 am this morning. We’re going to do our best, but with just 2 days to answer all the calls it won’t be easy. So make sure to tell everyone to keep calling if all lines are busy. We’ll do our best to answer them all.” Lynne said. The only thing readers of today’s newspaper publication need to do is make sure they are a resident of the state of New Jersey and call the National Toll-Free Hotlines before the 2-day deadline ends midnight tomorrow. ■

HOW TO CLAIM THE LAST STATE RESTRICTED BANK ROLLS FACTS:

If you are a New Jersey State Resident read the important information below about claiming the State Silver Bank Rolls, then call the State Toll-Free Hotline at 8:30 am: 1-800-979-3771 EXT: RWB3516

Are these Silver Walking Liberties worth more than other half dollars:

Yes. These U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties were minted in the early 1900’s and will never be minted again. That makes them extremely collectible. The vast majority of half dollars minted after 1970 have no silver content at all and these Walking Liberties were one of the last silver coins minted for circulation. That’s why many of them now command hundreds in collector value so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

How much are State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls worth:

It’s impossible to say, but some of these U.S Gov’t issued Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s are worth up to 100 times the face value and there are 15 in each Bank Roll so you better hurry if you want to get your hands on them. Collector values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees. But we do know they are the only New Jersey State Silver Bank Rolls known to exist and Walking Liberties are highly collectible so anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Silver Bank Rolls should hold onto them because there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

Why are so many New Jersey residents claiming them:

Because they are the only State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls known to exist and everyone wants their share. Each Bank Roll contains a whopping 15 Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value. Best of all New Jersey residents are guaranteed to get them for the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty for the next two days.

How do I get the State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls:

New Jersey residents are authorized to claim up to the limit of 4 State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls by calling the State Toll Free Hotline at 1-800-979-3771 Ext. RWB3516 starting at precisely 8:30 am this morning. Everyone who does is getting the only State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls known to exist. That’s a full Bank Roll containing 15 Silver Walking Liberties from the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for just the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty, which is just $585 for the full Bank Rolls and that’s a real steal because non state residents are not permitted to call before 5 pm tomorrow and must pay $1,770 for each New Jersey State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Roll if any remain.

A New Year’s Day Story

F

By Richard Mabey Jr. rom the days of my early childhood on through my senior year of high school, we would always spend a good portion of New Year’s Day at my maternal grandparents’ home in Boonton. The home was a two-story, yellow brick farmhouse that proudly stood on the 600 block of Boonton Avenue. A stone wall proudly stood on the edge of the entire front yard, just about a foot from the sidewalk. It was a most majestic stone wall with a level, concrete top. I so dearly remember the big feasts of New Year’s Day at my maternal grandparents’ home. My mom was the youngest of nine children. The house would abound with aunts and uncles and cousins. It was a joyous time, a time of innocence. It was a time when most people still had black and white television sets, there were no microwave ovens, no laptop computers, and no cell phones. Grandma, Mom, my sister Patti, my aunts, and my girl cousins would all somehow manage to fit into Grandma’s kitchen and would be busy cooking the big New Year’s Day feast. The men would be huddled around Grandpa’s little black and white television set, watching football games. I know how chauvinist this all sounds, but it was just the way it was back in the 1950’s and 1960’s. The timing of the feast was always a bit of a puzzling thing to me. We would all eat at about 3:00 in the afternoon. So, the big feast was either a late lunch or an early supper, depending upon how you looked at it. Grandpa Kemmerer and I had a most wonderful and magical bond. We were both drummers. I had started playing the

drums when I was in fourth grade. I was in my school band from fourth grade on through all of my time at Boonton High School. Through the years, I had quite a few of drum teachers and band leaders. But, I learned the most about the art of being a fine percussionist from my Grandpa K. There comes a moment in time, in everyone’s life, when they look at the things, the places, then nooks and crannies that they have looked at a million and one times, but in one solitary moment see in an entirely different array of colors, meanings, and abounding depth. Such a moment came to me when I was 14 years old and in my freshman year at Boonton High School. Unbeknown to me, Grandpa K had gone to a football game at Boonton High, with a few of his fellow volunteer firemen. Grandpa saw me play the big bass drum during the half-time show. It was in the midst of New Year’s Day of 1968, that Grandpa K shared a sacred moment with me. It was New Year’s Day 1968. As Grandpa K sat in his easy chair, surrounded by his sons, sons-in-law, and grandchildren, he took a look at his watch. The football game on the old black and white television had mostly everyone hypnotized. “Well, here it is two o’clock in the afternoon. I better check on old Mickey,” Grandpa announced to everyone. Old Mickey was Grandpa’s beloved beagle, who had a most elaborate pen and doghouse in Grandpa’s backyard. I remember this moment all so well. Grandpa unceremoniously arose from his comfortable chair, walked into the continued on page 15

My grandfather, Edmund C. Kemmerer, and myself when I was a boy, standing on the sidewalk, just outside of the old Kemmerer Homestead on Boonton Avenue.

A New Year’s Day Story... continued from page 14 kitchen, and came out with a big aluminum bowl, filled with dry dog food. Grandpa looked down at the dry dog food as if it were tea leaves left at the bottom of a teacup, filled with fortune telling properties. “Richie, you wanna help me feed Old Mickey?” Grandpa called out to me. “Sure thing, Grandpa,” I responded. Grandpa and I put our coats on, walked out the side door of the old Kemmerer Homestead and began the walk down the gravel driveway to Old Mickey’s doghouse. I think that Old Mickey had the most elaborate setup that any dog could ever imagine. It was a large, gated area, with a big shed in one corner of the gated area. Grandpa had cut out a little doorway for Old Mickey to come in and out of the shed. A piece of canvas hung over the little opening, so that the cold air would not intrude upon the warmth inside Old Mickey’s walk-in doghouse. Old Mickey’s tail wildly wagged as he saw Grandpa and I walk down the driveway. Grandpa opened up the gate door, we walked into Old Mickey’s domain. Dear Old Mickey jumped wildly onto Grandpa, until Grandpa put down the metal bowl and Old Mickey begin eating his early supper. Grandpa petted Old Mickey, then began walking to Old Mickey’s shed. I followed my beloved grandfather. To my surprise, Grandpa grabbed a big, oversized bass drum mallet. He looked at the drum mallet with a certain sad reflection pouring from his eyes. The big, pot belly stove in the middle of the shed, warmed us both.

“Richie, I’ve had this old bass drum mallet more years than I can recall. I want you to have it,” Grandpa gently told me. I was lost for words. I could tell that the old bass mallet meant a lot to my dear grandfather. I thanked my grandfather for the endearing gift. I held the drum mallet in my hand, holding back my tears. For I knew, deep in my heart that my grandfather had just passed on something to me that he dearly cherished. As we walked out of the shed, Grandpa heartily petted Old Mickey. We walked out of Old Mickey’s big, gated area and began our walk up the long driveway to the side door of the endearing Kemmerer Homestead. Smoke ascended from the brick chimney atop the roof of the yellow brick home. “You’re a good drummer,” Grandpa said to me. Holding back my tears, I clenched the handle of Grandpa’s precious bass drum mallet with my right hand. “Thank you, Grandpa,” I simply replied. Over 50 years have come and gone since that wonderful, memorable New Year’s Day of 1968. Now at 68, I return in memory to that little, modest home atop Boonton Avenue. I would give everything I own to go back in time, for just one hour, to relive those precious and endearing memories. Richard Mabey Jr. is a freelance writer.

NJ Starz: Carol Blazejowski Hometown: Cranford, NJ

T

By Steve Sears he year was 1997, and Carol Blazejowski, often referred to as “The Blaze” by many basketball fans, had landed her dream job. The New York Liberty of the Women’s National Basketball Association needed a Vice-President and General Manager, and Blazejowski got the call. She was happy to be back at Madison Square Garden, where she’d played perhaps her greatest game. On March 6, 1977, 20 years earlier, while a member of then-Montclair State College, she torched Queens College by scoring a still-collegiate record for the famous arena of 52 points. “What I do remember was how blessed and where fate really takes you,” Blazejowski says. “You never know where your life’s going to go. In 1977, I’m playing in the Garden in front of 12,000 people - the most ever seeing women’s basketball game - and then, many years later, now I’m running a women’s professional basketball team whose home court is at the Garden.” A double blessing for a great player who has lived her life and career with a humble determination. Blazejowski grew up with an older sister on the south side of Cranford. Her sister wanted nothing to do with sports, while her younger sibling would rewrite basketball record books. “My love for sports started at an early age. There were only boys in my neighborhood, so I was the neighborhood tomboy, and learned how to play football and baseball and stickball, all before I really touched a basketball.” A gym teacher while she was in fifth grade saw her potential and said to her, ‘I think you’re really going to enjoy the sport of basketball,’ and introduced her to the game. “From the moment I touched it (a basketball), it really was love at first sight. The passion started immediately. I would dribble my ball or ride my bike down to this little side continued on page 19

continued from page 18 street not far from my home, and either work out there by myself and just shoot, and play if people came. But I always got the quizzical looks. Back then in the day, girls didn’t play sports. It was taboo.” In an era where women’s sports was not embraced and little or no leagues existed, Blazejowski didn’t let it deter her. “I just continued to play because I loved it so much, and really felt at peace on a basketball court. I would fantasize about someday playing on a high school team, someday getting a college scholarship, playing in the Olympics, and beyond.” Cranford High School had no girl’s basketball team until Blazejowski’s senior year in 1974. When she threatened to join the boy’s team, a girl’s team was established. The team finished 19 -1, their only loss being in the state title game. Blazejowski that season scored 638 points and averaged 31.9 points and 17 rebounds per game. Montclair State was next for Blazejowski, where she was an All-American her sophomore through senior seasons. “No scholarships, and we were middle to low income, so I had to go to a college that was close to where I grew up, and ended up at Montclair,” she says. The team competed well on the state level, and eventually elevated to national level recognition. “We got a few players in there and we ended up on the national landscape and the top 20,” Blazejowski recalls. “And of course, media started following us then, and then we were traveling all around to play top 20 schools that had full women’s college scholarships. We had nothing - but we were still competing with them. When we got really good my last two years, my junior and senior year, we had great opportunities to travel to really great places, playing at the Palestra, playing at Madison Square Garden. And then, of course, I had my signature game on that March 6, 1977 at the Garden.” In her junior year, Blazejowski averaged almost 34 points per game, and in her senior campaign, almost 39, she winning the initial

Wade Trophy as the top women’s collegiate player in the nation. She was certainly in the spotlight, but felt no pressure at all those last two seasons. “I thrive on pressure,” she says. “I’m challenged by pressure. Believe it or not, Montclair State was always the underdog. I had a committed group of teammates that just complemented me so well. The coaching staff was phenomenal. And so, when we went into battle, we were a united group. And I never felt like I was in this by myself.” As Blazejowski’s senior year was approaching its end, Montclair State played in the first ever Women’s NCAA Final Four. “You played two games, so if you lost in the first round and we played UCLA in the first round, lost to them - you came back and played a consolation round,” Blazejowski explains. She scored 40 in the loss to UCLA, and her final collegiate game was an overtime win against Wayland Baptist in the consolation contest, she tallying 44 points. She concluded her MSC years with a total of 3,199 points and an average of 31.7 points per game. Blazejowski next had a commitment to make the 1980 Olympics team. “That started in 1978,” she says. “I didn’t play for those two years because I was committed to my Olympic pursuit. I traveled extensively with the team and competed. I was driven since I had failed in my attempt in the ‘76 Olympics; I was more determined that nothing was going to stand in my way.” She made the team and was named captain, but never saw action. The United States boycotted the 1980 games. However, Blazejowski and the USA team did score a Gold medal at the 1979 World University Games. Blazejowski turned pro in 1980, signing a three-year contract with the New Jersey Gems of the Women’s Basketball League. “There was a lot of hype about me playing,” she says. “I mean, I was a little kid growing up, never thinking I would ever see the day that I’d be doing something I love and getting paid for it, and that was playing basketball.

continued from page 19 was great because it was in New Jersey and I was geographically in the right place around my family support group.” Blazejowski’s three-year deal, the largest in the history of the WBL, was also for the biggest amount, $150,000. “That was all big news, and it was exciting. I was able to continue to play, get paid - at least for a moment or two. Of course, then they had some financial issues, and we played to empty arenas, and most often the travel was interesting. They did their best, but we didn’t have what the WNBA has today.” Devoid of sponsors, big money owners, and television coverage, the WBL folded after her first season of play. “We didn’t have any of those things, but for me, I played for the love of the game, and it was a wonderful, great experience for me.” Her playing career now officially over, Blazejowski worked for Adidas as a promotional and sales rep. “I was still connected with the game,” she says, “and then I went to work for six years at the NBA League office. I was Director of Licensing and that was a wonderful career change for me, but again, still even closer to basketball at the highest level, and I had the opportunity to work with incredible executives and David Stern.” Then came her time with the WNBA, where she initially served as the league’s Di-

rector of Basketball Development, and shortly afterwards her 1997 – 2010 tenure with the New York Liberty, she first a VP and GM, then Sr. Vice-President and, eventually, President. In 2011, Blazejowski returned to her college alma mater, working in administration. Blazejowski, 65, now runs Blaze Hoop Crew, educating youngsters in the proper way to play the game she loves. “My passion is basketball, and I believe that I can now make an impact,” she says. “I work on the grassroots level, introducing the correct fundamentals of the game at an early age. I teach them how to play the game. It’s not about just getting your own; it’s about making others better. It’s about when you have like I did at Montclair State, and many other teams that I’ve played on: a committed group, and all the pieces fit together and complement one another. It’s a thing of beauty to watch.” Carol Blazejowski, a member of 10 Hall of Fames (among them the James A. Naismith National Basketball Hall of Fame, the National Polish American Sports Hall of Fame, the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, and the New Jersey Hall of Fame) has had a rewarding life. “I’ve thought about it many times,” she says while reflecting. “How blessed I was to have these opportunities and to fit all of these great memories to be a part of my life. It was just a fabulous, fabulous adventure.”

Q

5 Benefits of Weighted Blankets, Including Better Sleep

uality sleep is essential to good health, but daily life - the stresses of work and family, too much screen time, caffeine or alcohol - disrupts our body’s natural sleep cycle. One tool to promote better sleep is a weighted blanket, but the benefits go beyond sleep. Here are five benefits weighted blankets provide: 1. Helps you fall asleep faster - Most people know what it’s like to toss and turn at night just waiting to fall asleep. According to the National Sleep Foundation, it should take 10-20 minutes to fall asleep. If it takes you more time than that there are steps you can take like adding a weighted blanket to your bedtime routine. 2. Helps you stay asleep longer - The CDC says adults should get between seven and nine hours of sleep each night. If you’re in need of more restful slumber, a product like a Tranquility weighted blanket and its calming pressure can help you sleep more soundly with fewer bouts of restlessness so you wake feeling more rested. 3. Enhances relaxation - Weighted blankets offer deep touch pressure, a sensory experience like a soothing hug, which works to relax the nervous system and creates a feeling of calm so you can rest more com-

fortably. A weighted blanket isn’t just for bedtime - it can be used to create a more relaxing experience when you’re winding down on the couch or even on a Zoom call. “Research shows that weighted blankets can help with better relaxation and sleep, two things that are critical to overall health,” says wellness expert Jamie Hess of NYCfitfam. “It’s important to take care of yourself, both mentally and physically and I’ve found adding a Tranquility weighted blanket to my daily routine helps me reclaim my calm.” 4. Provides comfort - Many Americans experience stress and anxiety with daily life, and since the onset of COVID-19, more Americans than ever are experiencing these emotions. If someone you know is going through a rough patch, giving the soothing comfort of a weighted blanket can be a thoughtful and personal way to show you care. 5. Makes a thoughtful gift for giving - A weighted blanket can make a great gift for anyone in your life, especially when people may not be gathering like they typically do. Cozy Tranquility weighted blankets are an affordable gift option for everyone on your list. If you have been on the fence about trying a weighted blanket, these are some reasons to consider this soothing, sleep-inducing comfort. (BPT)
