Pequannock Historical Society Saves Slice Of History By Preserving Martin Berry House

5 p.m. and 10 p.m., Pizza One in Wayne will donate 10 percent of each purchase to the preservation effort when customers mention the Martin Berry House. “The plan is to make this a place for the community,” said Ed Englebart of the Pequannock Township Historic Preservation Commission, “a museum and a place for lectures and events.” The six bedroom house was built as early as 1720, according to HMR Architects, the firm hired by the township to study the property and help design a plan to prepare it for public use.

By Nicole Greco he Martin Berry House sits on the corner of Route 23 and Jackson Road in Pequannock Township and was built there decades before the Declaration of Independence. This past January, at the behest of a group of dedicated residents, the township purchased the property for preservation. Now the plans are laid to transform the house into a museum and community space, and the Pequannock Township Historical Society is raising funds to start the fix-up. On April 11, between

It was originally situated on more than 300 acres and was built by Martin Berry, a member of one of the first families to settle in Pequannock. It was designed in Dutch Colonial style, complete with a gambrel roof, wide floor boards, Colonial-era window glass, and seven fireplaces with interior chimneys. Engelbart

said the house was built in a way that would protect the owners in the event of an attack from members of the Lenape tribe. “At one point there were 14 people living in this house,” said Engelbart, “the owner’s family and their servants.” Civil War hero James Evans owned the house

during the 1800’s. According to the U.S. Army Center of Military History, Evans received a Medal of Honor because he “went out in front of the line under a fierce fire and, in the face of the rapidly advancing enemy, rescued the regimental flag with which the color bearer had fallen. After returning from war,

Engelbart says Evans settled in Pequannock where he served in a number of civic leadership positions including a stint as justice of the peace. Over the years, and 12 families later, the house is in remarkably good condition. According to Engelbart, previous owners had continued on page 2

For years, “she opened her home to Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops” to learn about Pequannock’s past. The township purchased the home for $350,000- half of which was a grant from the Morris County Historic Preservation Trust Fund.

The Pequannock Township Historical Society is holding fundraisers, like the proceeds from Pizza One, to raise capital for transforming the house into a destination for visitors. To do so, they’ll need to look into re-plastering and making sure building access is compliant with the Americans with Disabili-

Easy Ways To Keep Your Dog’s Ears Healthy

any dog owners never give a second thought to the health of their dogs’ ears. Unless Fido isn’t answering the dinner bell, pet owners may fail to recognize signs that man’s best friend is dealing with ear trouble. Though it’s easily overlooked, maintaining a dog’s ears is something owners must do throughout their four-legged friend’s life. Such maintenance is simple, and owners who remember to make it a part of their dog’s grooming routine can help ensure their

Dr. Matthew Krupnick, D.V.M.

dog stays clean and healthy for years to come. Why must I prioritize ear maintenance for my dog? The anatomy of dogs’ ears is reason enough for

dog owners to make ear maintenance part of the grooming routine they have for their pets. The inner ears of dogs are curvy and provide many spots for bacteria, parasites and yeast to hide and grow. The winding nature of dogs’ inner ears also can make it difficult to expel any debris that enters the ear canal, and trapped debris can cause infection. What are some signs that suggest my dog’s ears aren’t up to snuff? Much like their owners, dogs may suffer from wax buildup in their ears. But unlike humans, dogs

who have wax buildup in their ears may be coping with microscopic ear mites, which can infect dogs’ inner and external ear canals and lead to infection if left untreated. Ear mites can be difficult to see, but the presence of a black or brown waxy secretion may be indicative of ear mites. Dogs with ear mites may also rub or scratch their ears excessively, and that behavior can lead to ruptured blood vessels within the dog’s ear flap, which will look swollen and cause the dog considerable pain.

591 Newark Pompton Turnpike Pompton Plains, NJ

Other signs that dogs may be having problems with their ears include redness in and around the ear, swelling, crusty skin, and hair loss. Any of the aforementioned symptoms should be brought to the attention of a veterinarian immediately. How can I protect my dog from ear troubles? Simple and routine maintenance is often enough to safeguard dogs from ear troubles. Apply a cotton ball dampened with hydrogen peroxide or mineral oil to dirty areas of dogs’ inner ears. The skin

inside dogs’ inner ears is delicate, so be gentle when cleaning such areas, even asking your veterinarian to show you the proper technique if you are concerned you might hurt the animal. Some dogs, not unlike some dog owners, may grow hair in their ears. While the hair is relatively harmless, it’s still a good idea to discuss its growth with your veterinarian, who can teach you how to remove the hair or even let continued on next page

you know if the hair needs to be removed at all. It’s important that dog owners do not clean their dog’s ears too often. The skin inside dogs’ ears is very sensitive, so over cleaning the ears can cause irritation. When cleaning dogs’ ears, dog owners should never insert anything inside their dogs’ ear canals. Dog owners who let their dogs go swimming

from time to time should dry the dogs’ ears immediately after they get out of the water. Make sure ears are as dry as possible before letting Fido run off, as wet ears can cause infection and irritation. Ears may not be the first thing dog owners think of when trying to protect their pets from potentially painful health problems. But ear maintenance should be a part of every dog owner’s dog-grooming routine.

FINANCIAL News!

What is the Perfect Investment for My Retirement Portfolio

his is a question I hear all the time. “Mark, cut to the chase and tell me what you would do with this portfolio if it were your money”. This question, also heard by me all the time, reminds me of a question my wife once asked my surgeon after my quintuple bypass in 2010, that she put in charge of my case over all the other 168 doctors that weren’t effectively communicating amongst themselves to get me well after I was in pretty bad shape and barely alive. She said this: “Doc, if that were your wife dying over there, and you were compelled to save her and have her return to health, what would you immediately do to rescue her from danger and restore her to health?” I was “that close” to the end, readers and no one, in my wife Terry’s mind was caring, concerned or motivated enough to save her dying husband. She was told over and over, “buy the box – he’s not going to make it!” She realized I had but one chance, one shred of hope, if properly managed, to regain consciousness and survive that horrific ordeal. If missed, she would be returning home alone. Fortunately, her quick thinking and “take charge” attitude saved my life, her hus-

band, best friend and the father of her 4 children. Let’s compare this true story to that of your personal financial situation by asking you a simple question, “How many opportunities do you have for a secure retirement?” You work your entire life to accumulate a nest egg and in one day your working income is severed! Whether from an accident, a choice made by you or a choice made by others; on that day you will become dependent on the PAST fruits of your labor and the percentage of it you directed to your very own financial future and the rate of return it received! Your life and lifestyle will be dictated in direct proportion to: First, the amount of savings and investments you’ve scoured away for this day and second, the decisions regarding the positioning of your portfolio to produce a sustainable (hopefully guaranteed*) joint lifetime income with principal access, coupled with a legacy plan for your children. It’s just that simple. Make a poor decision or two and your income and resulting lifestyle may be skewered forever. Therefore, to answer my own question, “How many opportunities do you have for a secure

retirement?” For most of us, the answer is just ONE! Coupled with Social Security and perhaps a pension, your portfolio is basically your only alternative source for an income stream that in my opinion, should not be taken for granted. Quite the contrary; it may be the most critical, vitally important financial decision you’ll ever make. Think of your portfolio as your “spouse” for a moment and you desire her company and involvement in your life for as long as you live. She can’t die, be compromised and must be safely protected from all kinds of risk. What would you do differently, how would you position her assets, what would be your risk tolerance, your dependency level on her performance and frequency of use? I strive for principal, portfolio and income protection with guarantees* to last the rest of your and

your spouse’s lifetime. There is no one perfect investment for your retirement portfolio, but there may be a perfect plan for your retirement. Part of that plan would include the opportunity for liquidity, tax advantages, death benefits, income for life, offer the potential for growth, asset protection from law suits, the incredible financial burden of a long-term care stay with the addition of legal documents providing guidance and leadership during periods of incapacitation, sickness and/ or death. My personal plan back in 2010, included these legal documents naming my wife to be in charge of my health, my daughter as successor and my sister as contingent successor; they were given control of my financial affairs too. In my opinion, financial management is only one aspect of a properly structured retirement program, it must

contain a legal plan of action as well, in addition to a properly funded legacy plan. Fortunately, my legacy plan, though ready, did not need to go into effect back in 2010; I hope not to test those waters for many decades yet to come, but it is spring loaded and ready to jump into action. Are you equally prepared? Is your legacy plan set, your retirement plan loaded to produce indefinite sustainable income? Are you protected from the costs of a health trial, a long-term care incident, a lawsuit, either you or your spouse living too long or dying too soon? And what about inflation compromising your purchasing power over your retirement, are you prepared for that too? I encourage you to sit down with your financial professional/advisor to put these items on the very front burner. If you don’t have a relationship with a qualified advisor, please check me out online and in person. Call for a no obligation appointment to experience a high level of concern, caring and competence from a 35 year veteran of this industry and located in your back yard. I challenge you to challenge me to create a financial plan as unique as you are. Come to our educational workshops

and bring your spouse and a friend. Our Social Security educational workshops are being held April 18th and the 20th 6:30 – 8:00pm.

Common Audit Red Flags - What Attracts The IRS

or handwritten taxpayers, preparing their tax return isn’t the problem. It’s the fear of an audit. Audits are fairly uncommon, but the IRS may notice your tax return if certain red flags are present. Here are some of the common audit red flags to help you prepare for the possibility of your return being reviewed. High-income earners. In 2015, 0.8 percent of all individual tax returns were

audited, but among taxpayers with income of $1 million to $5 million, the audit rate jumped to 8.42 percent. Taxpayers with income of $10 million or more have about a onein-three chance of hearing from a tax auditor. Making or receiving alimony payments. Alimony payments are taxable income to the recipient and deductible by the payer, but divorced spouses sometimes fail to use the same

numbers. For that reason, the IRS matches deductions taken by the payer to income reported by the recipient. Differences could mean one or both of the spouses are selected for an audit. Having an undisclosed foreign bank account. Taxpayers with balances in foreign accounts that total more than $10,000 during the year must file FinCEN Form 114, commonly referred to as an FBAR. In-

Walk To Cure Lupus

upus, an autoimmune disorder, affects 1.5 million people in the U.S. That is one in every 200 people,

ternational banks are now required to report U.S. account holdings to the IRS, so failure to file an FBAR could result in severe penalties and possibly an audit. Claiming big deductions. The IRS tracks statistical data, such as average charitable contributions at every income level and average amounts of other common deductions. Taxpayers who claim above-average deductions might be asked to provide receipts to substantiate those amounts. Business or hobby. If you have a Schedule C in your tax return and it shows a loss, be prepared for a review. The IRS knows many

“businesses” are actually hobbies because they lack a profit motive. Be prepared if this describes one of your business activities.

pring is here, which means it’s time for throwing memorable celebrations for friends and family. Whether you are hosting an Easter brunch or attending a spring picnic, you can make these occasions unforgettable with a few fun and festive additions.

Stock up on a variety of paints, glitter, dye, stencils, and textured fabric, and let imaginations run

wild. Plan for your Easter egg hunt to take place outdoors, but have an indoor back-up in case the weather does not cooperate. Make sure to take all the ages of participants into account when deciding where to hide eggs! Sweet Treats Anyone with a sweet tooth knows that Easter and delicious treats go hand in hand, so pay extra attention to this essential element of your party. A candy buffet invites guests to try an assortment of treats. To satisfy everyone’s taste buds,

offer milk and dark chocolates, lollypops, springtime truffles and sour bunnies. Stick with go-to candy makers like See’s Candies, which uses high-quality ingredients and is one of the few remaining candy makers that ages its chocolate -- a process that imparts a smoother, mellower flavor and elevates the overall taste experience, making it a great option for Easter entertaining. Spruce Up Take an opportunity to spring clean your home before your gathering. A new season and knowing guests

will be coming over can be great motivators for sprucing up your home. For décor, gather flowers to create colorful centerpieces, including tulips and Easter lilies. Use brightly colored tablecloths and runners, scattering confetti and small sweet treats on tables for a special touch. Easter Basket Whether crafting Easter baskets or looking for a gift to take to your host, candy is always a great choice. No matter what your basket or gift budget is, treats can be found in a

aster is the perfect occasion to enjoy a glass of wine and share a meal with family and friends. If you are looking for a delicious wine pairing this holiday, consider a classic red variety like Cabernet Sauvignon. Bold and spicy with luscious black fruits and a full body, Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect choice for your Easter meal. In particular, Cabernet Sauvignons from the Rutherford section of Napa Valley are known for their exquisite power, balance, and concentration of fruit. They pair beautifully

Lamb Chops and Red Wine: A Perfect Easter Pairing with all manner of foods. A great option this holiday is 2014 Sequoia Grove Winery Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (SRP $39.99), which features aromas of black cherries and blackberry, followed by cinnamon and a touch of black pepper. Firm tannins and deep dark berry flavors provide an elegant accompaniment to a traditional Easter meal, including sharp cheeses, roasted vegetables, and this simple preparation of lamb chops: Ingredients: (Serves 4 people) • 1 lb. lamb chops • 3 tablespoons of olive oil

• 1 sprig of rosemary • Squeeze of lemon • Salt and pepper to taste Method: • Prepare the chops, eliminating any excess fat and beat with a meat tenderizer. Lay the chops in a pan, salt and pepper to taste on both sides. Drizzle with olive oil, squeeze of lemon and flavor with chopped garlic and fresh rosemary. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the chops to marinate. • Heat a cast iron plate and cook the chops over a flame for around four minutes on each side. When cooked, serve piping hot

with side dishes and a glass of Sequoia Grove Cabernet Sauvignon.

NCJW Hosts Author Of A Holocaust Survivor’s Story Of Survival

be Peck is the only living Holocaust survivor of an entire town in Poland. He is the only person left in this world who can provide a firsthand account of the atrocities committed by the Nazis against his family, friends and contemporaries. Maya Ross, the author of “Abe-vs-Adolf: The True Story of Holocaust Survivor Abe Peck,” will recount his astonishing story of survival at the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), West Morris Section’s Personal Giving Thank-You Brunch on Sun., April 30, beginning at 10 a.m., at a private home in Denville. The event is open to everyone who makes a donation to the NCJW, West Morris Section’s Personal Giving campaign. Donations may be made by contacting Dorothy Cohen at dorothy_irvingcohen@ msn.com. Personal Giving is coordinated by Dorothy Cohen of Denville and Anne Gorman of Rockaway. Before Nazi Germany targeted European Jews for persecution and then ultimately annihilation in its insidious plan called the Final Solution of the Jewish Question, Peck had a wonderful childhood. But in March 1940, at only 15 years old, Peck was snatched from his home and family and forced to spend the next five unimaginably horrific years as a prisoner in Nazi con-

(The average in-state college tuition for New Jersey in 2016) centration camps. Robbed of his teenage years, with no parents to guide or care for him, Abe somehow survived starvation, disease, beatings, shootings, forced labor, death marches and prolonged imprisonment. If asked how he did it, how he defied death by beating the most abysmal of odds, he will simply say that he was lucky. But was it luck, or was it an indomitable will to live? By detailing his firsthand experience of the horrors of discrimination and genocide, through Ross’s book, he fervently hopes that subsequent generations will learn from the past and vow, “Never again.” Ross is a fiction writer

who met Holocaust survivor Peck while serving on the board of a not-for-profit philanthropic organization. She was so fascinated by his tale of courage and survival that she set out to write his true life story. Her talk at the NCJW, West Morris Section’s Personal Giving Thank-you Brunch promises to be eminently memorable. The National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) is a grassroots organization of volunteers and advocates who turn progressive ideals into action.

hether you are building a new house or making upgrades on a current home, there is a lot to consider when it comes to flooring. It’s important to keep in mind that the choices available have changed in recent years. Here are some things to know. Choose Style When people choose flooring products, they may be ruling out a large swath of options because of the associations they have with specific materials. For example, you may not associate vinyl with luxury but new products on the market are redefining vinyl flooring, offering fashion-forward high-quality products in

striking elegant designs. Ensure Durability If you love the look of traditional hardwood floors, consider all of your options. New vinyl technologies are allowing homeowners to get the same elegant style engineered to withstand the wear and tear to which wood is susceptible. For example, Mohawk SolidTech, a luxury vinyl tile, has a thick, rigid construction and planks that look and feel just like real hardwood, but are designed to resist scratches, scuffs and indentation, and maintain stability under heat and temperature change. The planks also fit together to create an impenetrable lock so that the floors remain waterproof and odor-

free. Consider Maintenance Make sure the flooring you opt for is easy to clean and requires very little maintenance. If you have pets, you may want to consider getting extra protection with a special warranty designed for pet owners, such as Mohawk’s All Pet Protection and Warranty, which covers all pets and all accidents. More information can be found at MohawkFlooring.com. Before making flooring decisions, get savvy and weigh all your current options. These days, it is possible to find flooring products that combine style, durability and low maintenance. (StatePoint)

Smart Kitchen Upgrade Ideas To Help You Save Time

ost home cooks want the flexibility of preparing complicated meals with ease and convenience. However, even those with a deft culinary hand may be limited by their tools, space and appliances. Smartly outfitting your kitchen can help you jump meal preparation hurdles, particularly if you are someone who is inclined to prepare multi-course meals. Consider space-saving appliances with versatile functionality that can do more than one job at a time. Just as you can multitask, so should your kitchen appliances. Experts point out that it all boils down to the capabilities of your oven range. When pressed for time, you may have compromised on cooking times or tem-

perature, leaving dishes to suffer through over- or under-cooking. Home chefs with this problem should consider upgrading to a double oven range, which would allow you to cook multiple dishes at separate temperatures. Consider the flexibility of being able to bake cookies in convection mode at 350 degrees while simultaneously broiling chicken, all in one unit. If you do plan to make this upgrade, consider your needs and options. For example, if an electric connection is the only option for cooking, consider Verona’s 36 inch fully electric double oven range, which offers cooking performance one might not expect from a fully electric range. Also available in dual fuel and all gas options, the Verona double oven ranges are ful-

ly equipped with two easily programmed multi-function ovens and provide multiple cooking modes, including baking, defrosting and broiling. When form is just as important as function, consider ILVE’s larger double oven range options in 40, 48 and 60 inch sizes. All sizes feature two multi-function ovens and added multi-tasking tools such as a rotisserie and warming drawer. Cooktop options such as a French top and removable griddle give even more flexibility to ambitious home cooks. With a dual oven range, you may find that a separate built-in oven becomes unnecessary, freeing up valuable cabinet space and valuable dollars for other useful chef’s tools and supplies.

Weed Prevention Tips For Lawn Care

he old saying goes that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” If you’re new to caring for a lawn, you may not know that this is especially true when it comes to your yard. If left untreated, weeds can weaken or even destroy a healthy stand of grass. These simple lawn care tips, courtesy of Bayer Advanced lawn and garden expert Lance Walheim, can help you ward off weeds and enjoy healthy, green grass year-round. Start with the basics. Grow turf that is so thick and strong, weeds can’t find an inch to take root by watering and fertilizing properly. Watering too much or too little encourages weeds. Water deeply (6-8 inches) and allow the lawn to partially dry before you water again. Before fertilizing, read the label carefully to ensure that you have the correct timing. You may also want to conduct a soil test so you know you’re applying the correct blend of nutrients for the soil quality in your region. Local cooperative

extension offices are useful resources to help you get started. Also beware of bare spots or parts of the lawn that are not thriving. These areas are an invitation for weeds, so find the cause quickly. Trouble spots can be caused by insects, disease, chemical spills, objects left too long on the grass or broken sprinklers. Once you’ve resolved the issue, re-seed the area with grass seed that matches the rest of your lawn. Mow at the right height. Grass needs to be the right height to combat the growth of weeds. Grass that is too short exposes weed seeds to sunlight and promotes germination. Ideal blade height varies depending on grass type, time of year and growing conditions, but the most important thing is to never remove more than one-third of the leaf surface at any one time. In general, cool-season grass, like fescue or Kentucky bluegrass, or grasses in shade grow best when maintained at a taller height, approximately 2 1/2-4 inches. If you have warm-season grass, including zoysia and

Bermudagrass, maintain it between 1-3 inches. Get tools to help. Specialized tools and products make it easier to remove weeds. A simple garden hoe can do wonders with young seedlings, and dandelion weeders are perfectly designed to remove deep-rooted dandelions. You can also reduce manual labor by treating your lawn with a time-saving selective herbicide product like Bayer Advanced Season Long Weed Control for Lawns, which controls broadleaf lawn weeds like dandelions and clovers. This herbicide not only kills the weeds you can see, but prevents new weeds from growing for up to 6 months. Plus, it’s rainproof in just 1 hour, which is perfect for rainy spring months. It is not for sale, use or distribution in New York. Be sure to read product labels carefully to understand what weeds will be killed or prevented.

This is important to keep in mind when determining how much home you can afford. Prospective homebuyers concerned about down payments should also be aware that there are nearly 2,500 homeownership programs across the country that can help with down payment and closing costs, and an estimated 87 percent of U.S. homes are eligible for one or more of these programs, according to research by DownPayment Resource. The down payment program benefit most frequently found is about $10,000, making

of your savings and leave you with no financial reserves, it’s probably not in your best interest. What’s more, you can cancel your PMI once you’ve built equity of 20 percent in your home.

Don’t assume the dream of homeownership is beyond your reach. Get savvy! There are numerous programs and products available that can help you afford your down payment and beyond. (StatePoint)
