High School Students From Lincoln Park Recognized For Artistic Talent

By Stefanie Sears uite a few Boonton High School students from Lincoln Park have gained recognition for their fine artwork lately. Their honors focus on accomplishments in both visual arts and photography for local art shows and contests. Mayo Performing Arts Center (MPAC) in Morristown held its annual Program Book Art Cover Contest, which received entries from more than 70 Morris County middle and high school students. The idea was to follow the “Imagine! Discover! Create! Celebrate MPAC and the Arts” theme. Senior Hubert Deiparine and freshman Jaylene Combs were among those announced as winners at the reception on February 28 held in the “Art Upstairs Gallery.” Deiparine’s design depicting a man singing into a microphone is featured on the Mayo Performing Arts Center Season 2016-2017 Issue 5 Program Book and Combs’s color drawing of a girl standing onstage dressed in a blue gown facing musical notes and happy/sad theater masks is featured on the Fall 2017 Family Program Book cover. Entries are also seen in the Mayo Per-

forming Arts Center April 2017 Issue 4 Program Book and were displayed in MPAC’s “Art Upstairs Gallery” from March 1-14. Continuing the artistic successes in Morristown, multiple pieces created by Boonton High School junior Shayna Canning, including her acrylic “Enigma,” were accepted into the 29th Annual High School Student Art Show, sponsored by the Blackwell Center for the Arts. Her work, along with the others, were exhibited in the Morris County Courthouse Atrium Gallery from March 27-April 28. Currently, Canning is working at a professional level on her newest piece, “Dog in Boonton.” As for photography, Jacki Insel achieved third prize for her participation in the 31st Annual Invitational Competition, sponsored by the Mt. Olive High School National Art Honor Society. A reception was held at MOHS on Feb. 7. Victor Eftimoski received a blue ribbon at a reception held at William Paterson University’s Power Art Gallery on Feb. 4 for his photo that was included in the annual ARTSTART art exhibit, sponsored by the Department of Art at William Paterson Uni-

versity. Eftimoski’s digital photo “Victory” also won an Honorable Mention for the 29th Annual High School Student Art Show and like Canning, his work was also displayed in the exhibit. “I am very proud of our Fine Arts Department,” says Boonton High School Principal Jason Klebez. “Ms. Kraa and Ms. Oliveri put in a tremendous amount of time with our students and constantly look for venues to display their work. Our students have won many distinguished awards for their artwork and I could not be happier for them and our teachers.” Hubert Deiparine shows off his winning playbill design.

Summer Camp Options Abound

ummer camp is a beloved tradition in many families. Many parents of young children fondly recall spending their summers at summer camp, where they made lifelong friends and learned the finer points of roasting marshmallows and competing in three-legged sack races. Parents looking for the right summer camp for their kids will soon discover there are various types of summer camps, each offering youngsters something different. The following are some of the summer camp options parents can expect to encounter as they search for the right camper for their kids.

Day camp Day camps are not overnight camps, which means kids will return home each night rather than sleep over at camp. Day camps typically offer many of the activities people have come to associate with camps, including crafts, sports and even day-trips to experience local culture or attractions. Many day camps are coed, and counselors typically live within the community. Faith-based camp Faith-based camps offer many of the same activities as more traditional summer camps, but do so while simultaneously offering campers the opportunity to celebrate and further ex-

plore their religious beliefs. Some faith-based camps may focus heavily on religion, incorporating faith into daily camp activities, while others may be more subtle with regard to integrating religious beliefs and lessons into camp activities. Sports camps Some summer camps focus on a particular sport, catering to young athletes who want to further develop their athletic talents. Sports camps may feature guest lectures and lessons from notable local athletes and coaches, while some camps may provide instruction from current and/or former professional athletes. Some sports camps are overnight,

Linda D’Amico’s Academy of Dance 574 Newark Pompton Tpke. Pompton Plains

while others are day camps. Parents of children with special needs can still send their kids to summer camp, as there are many camps that cater to such youngsters. Special needs camps

may cater to campers who are blind, deaf, learning disabled, or mentally or physically disabled. Staff at special needs camps typically undergoes extensive training, which helps to

calm some of the fears parents may have about leaving their special needs children at camp. Facilities at special needs camps are often built to accommodate the specific needs of campers.

DeGray Mosser, Former Business Owner And World War II Veteran, Dies At 98

eGray Mosser, Sr., 98, formerly of Wayne and Pequannock, a World War II Navy veteran and former service station owner who once worked as a motorcycle stunt rider, died April 10 in his Cumming, Ga., home. Mr. Mosser, who was also known as “Lucky Kelly,” “Butch,” “Bomber,” and “Monk,” was born to Charles Laurence Mosser and Iva May Myers Mosser in Newark with the assistance of a German midwife. Later, his family lived in the Preakness section of Wayne, before moving when he was four years old to Pequannock Township, where he completed grade school through eighth

grade. The Mosser brothers called themselves the “river rats” when they used to play and camp along the Pequannock River. Mr. Mosser showed a fondness for daredevil pursuits during his earlier years. He once worked as an Indian motorcycle stunt rider – stage name “Lucky Kelly from Hollywood, Calif.,” – in Kotchman’s Cavalcade of Thrills in the late 1930s and early 1940s. He was also injured in an explosion while working at a munitions factory in northern New Jersey during the late 1930s or early 1940s. Mr. Mosser was drafted into the military during World War II and served in the U.S. Navy as a machinist’s mate-third class, from 1944 to 1946. Shortly before the start of his active duty, he married his sweetheart, Sylvia Bunton. Mr. Mosser served on the following U.S. Navy vessels and stations: NRS, Newark, NTS, Bainbridge, Md.; USS Merrimack, RS, South Annex, NOB, Northern Va.; and PSC, Lido Beach, Long Island, N.Y. He participated in the European, African,

Middle Eastern Area, American Theater, and Philippine liberation and was awarded the Victory Ribbon, Commendation Ribbon and the Asiatic Pacific Ribbon with five stars. Mr. Mosser lived in Norfolk, Va., for a short time while he was in the Navy. He and his wife later lived in Wayne, Haskell, and Midvale (Wanaque), where they raised four children. They escaped the cold and snow of New Jersey for Winter Garden, Fla., during the winter of 1948. Syliva died in 1977. He operated several service stations during the 1960s, including an Esso station in Midvale, two Dean service stations in Haskell, and one on Hamburg Turnpike in Bloomingdale. Mr. Mosser later worked as an operating engineer, retiring from the International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 825. Mr. Mosser married Frances Bialy in 1982. They lived in Wanaque and had three daughters. They lived in New Port Richey, Fla., during the late 1980s and early 1990s, and later lived

in Spring Hill, Fla. Frances died in 2002. He lived with his daughters in Ouray, Colo. Naples, Fla.; and Pompton Lakes, from 2008 through 2012. He moved to Tuscany Villa of Naples, Fla., in 2012, and later to Gracemont Senior Living in Cumming, Ga. in 2014. Mr. Mosser is survived by his daughters, Melinda Fink, Aleta Zanes, Mona Lee Mosser, Mary Elizabeth Dowell, Katherine Geraldine Mosser and Megan Borden; 13 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. A military burial with a flag ceremony took place April 24 at Georgia National Cemetery, Canton, Ga.

In Loving Memory Of Charlotte

n April 22, 2017, we lost a beautiful wife, mother, friend and nurse to a sudden illness. Charlotte Garcia Mazzo, 55, of Montville, passed away suddenly at Morristown Memorial Hospital in Morristown, surrounded by family and friends. I never believed in love at first sight until I saw my wife 25 years ago at a Christening. I bugged my friends for six months until they agreed to set up me up on a date with her. We fell in love and dated for several years before we got married. We were fortunate enough to have 25 great years together and have two wonderful children, Princess and Chancellor.

ING OPENON O S

Charlotte worked tirelessly and selflessly as a caring and nurturing nurse. Despite suffering through painful rheumatoid arthritis every day, she showed up to work no matter what. She took care of countless patients during the last days of their lives with the same care she would show towards her own children and family. She touched the lives of so many and left an extraordinary legacy. My wife was always happy and laughing. She would light up any room she walked into whether it was her patient’s room or a friend’s home. If you were talking to Charlotte, she always made you feel like you were the most important person in the world to her.

he Lake Hopatcong Foundation is seeking the community’s votes to win up to $100,000 in funding to purchase a 40foot, custom built, covered pontoon boat to be used as a floating classroom. The classroom will be used for aquatic education for all districts in Morris County. It will hold full classes of students and other groups. The foundation is trying to win a grant from A Community Thrives, USA Today Network’s nationwide philanthropic program.

The program enables communities to act on ideas that improve the people, organizations, government and businesses around them. County residents can vote daily from through May 12 at www.lakehopatcongfoundation.org/vote. “This is a terrific educational concept that could be valuable to school districts throughout Morris County,’’ said Morris County Freeholder Kathy DeFillippo. “I urge county residents to support the concept by voting for it.’’

How To Find A Comfortable Crate For Your Dog

any trainers and veterinarians recommend that dog owners buy dog crates as soon as possible after buying or adopting a dog. A pet owner’s choice of crate can go a long way toward ensuring the dog reacts positively to the crate. The Association of Professional Dog Trainers recommends the use of crates for puppies and dogs as a short-term training tool and as a safety precaution throughout the dog’s life. Crates can be invaluable in house training young dogs and helping to curtail destructive behavior, such as chewing. As more people

Dr. Matthew Krupnick, D.V.M.

travel with their pets, crates also provide a safe and convenient confinement option in the car, on an airplane and in pet-friendly hotel rooms. Crates also offer a cozy spot dogs can call their

own. Crates can feed dogs’ need for security. When used correctly, and not as punishment for a dog, crates can serve as comforting retreats for dogs when they need alone time. Where to buy? Crates can be purchased at most pet supply retailers, and they also are available at many department stores, hardware stores and online retailers. Pet owners who desire certain materials or have special requirements of their dog crates probably can find the biggest selection at pet supply stores. What size to get? It is important to consider the size of the dog

when purchasing a crate. The crate shouldn’t be too big nor too small. Choose a crate in which the dog can sit up straight without banging its head on the top of the crate. Dogs also should be able to turn around with ease and lie down on their sides with paws extended. Many pet owners make the mistake of getting a larger crate than is necessary. Dogs do not like to soil in their sleeping areas, but crates that are too large may encourage pooches to use one end as a bathroom and the other as a sleeping area, and ultimately that can make dogs less enthusiastic about crates. Also,

591 Newark Pompton Turnpike Pompton Plains, NJ

crates that are too large will not provide the feeling of security dogs crave. According to Labrador Training HQ, measure the dog while he is standing upright from nose to the base of the tail. Add five to six inches to this measurement, and that will be an ideal length for the crate. Also measure the dog while he is sitting upright. Again, add a few inches to the measurement, and this will be the minimum height of the crate. What about a growing puppy? Some owners prefer to upgrade crates as their dogs grow. Budget-conscious

pet owners can buy a larger crate and then use a divider to size it down for puppy use. The divider can be moved as necessary when the puppy grows. What are the different crate materials? Crates come in plastic, metal wire, wood, and nylon or another fabric material. Each has its own share of advantages and disadvantages. Wire crates are what many people envision in a crate, and such crates are among the most popular because they procontinued on next page

However, some dog owners feel wire crates bear too close a resemblance to cages. Fabric crates can be cozy and light, but dogs that are prone to scratching

and tearing may be able to escape them easily. Plastic crates can be more private, and wood crates can be customized to fit with the décor of the house. Pet owners should shop around to find which crate best fits the needs of their dogs. If crates will remain in the home, a more attrac-

tive crate may be a priority. If the crate will be used for travel, something lighter and more portable may be the best fit. Crates can be handy tools for dog owners, as crates provide a safe environment for dogs when owners aren’t home and can make great places for

Did You Know?

he word “prom” is short for “promenade dance,” an annual formal dance held for high school students, typically those in their junior and senior years. While the term “prom” might not be used across the globe, schools in many countries host similar dances for high school-aged students on the cusp of moving on to college. In the United Kingdom, proms did not become popular until very

host school proms, which range from relatively informal gatherings to more extravagant affairs. In South Africa, students may attend a Matric Dance, which commemorates their final year matriculating in their high schools. German high school students celebrate their graduations rather informally, and such celebrations may even include some lighthearted mocking of their teachers.

Prior to the 21st century, secondary school students in the UK might have attended formal dances at the onset of summer to celebrate the end of a school term, while students old enough to be finishing secondary school might have attended a “Leavers Ball” to commemorate that milestone in their life.

by Frank Minutolo he Coach is a new column that will be run monthly for business owners and individuals working for companies who want to continue learning so they can advance their careers. The publishers believe that independent businesses are one of the most important factors in our country’s job growth and economic success. Some of the areas we will be covering in this column are: Problem Solving, Goal Setting, Increasing Sales, Motivation, Time Management, etc. If you have an area you would like addressed or have a question now you can ask Frank Minutolo, The Coach, by emailing him at tsg973@ aol.com. The topic for to-

day is Problem Solving. Problem solving- must be written and not verbal. We have a specific approach to problem solving that I would like to share with you. When there is a problem it is important to be specific. Anyone in the company claiming there is a problem needs to follow this procedure in detail. What is the problem? Explain with specifics. The most important step in problem solving is defining the problem properly. This is the most critical step. The problem must be clearly defined and oftentimes doing this leads to the resolution. In defining the problem we should explore all possible causes of the problem. Do not just list the

symptoms but look deeply for the “root cause” of the problem. This oftentimes requires a detailed analysis of the situation. How does it affect our business? Does it have a material effect on our business? How? Is it something that is a personal annoyance to you as opposed to a business problem? Can we quantify it? How do we measure it? What is the dollar impact? If it’s time we are talking about, how much time? Once you have done this then we expect you to explore solutions and list them. Don’t stop at one but list all the possible solutions you can think of. Do not jump to an obvious conclusion. Take time to list

all possible solutions. Once this is done you can then determine which are the best solutions for the problem at hand. Final step: Which solution would you recommend and why? How to implement solu-

Summer Vacation Without Breaking The Bank

hen setting your family budget, often the first thing that gets slashed is the summer vacation. However, if you plan ahead, you can find simple ways to save and keep your vacation on the calendar. Here are a few ideas. Flexible location. Some-

times you just want to get away to recharge and the location isn’t the biggest factor. If your heart isn’t set on a specific city, find a location that offers substantial savings over popular tourist destinations. Avoid airport parking. Have a friend or family member drop you off for

your flight. If you know people who live near the airport, ask if you can park your car at their home during your vacation. Look for hotels that offer “park and fly” packages that may save you some money. Get creative about flying. Many metro areas have a number of airport options.

ver watched people playing games of chance and wondered how to do it? On Dec. 2, take a chance to learn at a Casino Night at Temple Beth Tikvah, Wayne.

The event is an opportunity to learn from casino professionals and not feel intimidated. There will be special rates for early sign ups, lots of special prizes and delicious food catered by the Brownstone.

Friends and their families are invited to have fun or celebrate a special occasion. For more information, call Alice Osur at 201-6571647.

Find out if choosing a less popular airport will give you a price break. The day and time you fly can also save you money. Consider choosing to fly on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Saturday. You may even find savings by choosing a flight time between 5 and 7 a.m. or after 8 p.m. Experiment with one-way ticket options to see if you can find a better deal. Stay with relatives. You don’t have to spend your entire vacation with relatives, but enjoying their hospitality for a night or two can do wonders for your vacation budget. Eat for less. Stock your carry-on bag with solid snacks to avoid high-priced snacks on the plane. When

priced at $33 for adults, and $24 for children. The picnic package includes bleacher seats and 90 minutes of unlimited hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, side dishes and dessert. Ticketholders also receive unlimited beverages until the seventh inning. The picnic starts at 6:30 p.m. and the first pitch is

thrown at 7:05 p.m. ShamRock School of Music students will kick off the game between the Jackals and the Ottawa Champions with the singing of the national anthem. To sign up, visit the Parks and Recreation office in Pompton Plains. For more information, call 973835-5700, ext.158.

Mangeri has been involved with scouting since the third grade. He has served as his troop’s chaplain aide and assistant senior patrol leader. He is currently the troop’s senior patrol leader and has been awarded the Arrow

Pompton Plains Teen Earns Eagle Scout Rank

of Light Award. Mangeri passed his board of review on Feb. 6 A volunteer junior firefighter with Pequannock Fire Company #1 for the past year, Mangeri wanted to help the department in its mission to help the community. He created a S.C.B.A. Confidence Course, which has since been further modified to include wiring and piping and the department last trained with the equipment a few weeks ago.

He is currently a junior in the Morris County Law and Public Safety Academy. He has lettered in swimming with the Pequannock Township High School team three times and plans to continue on the team. He plans to attend Ramapo College this fall, where he will be completing his senior year of high school and his freshman year of college concurrently. He hopes to earn a business degree at Ramapo and

have a career in law enforcement. One of Mangeri’s greatest scout honors was being able to take part in the laying of the wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Washington, D.C., this past fall. In his spare time, Mangeri enjoys his high school church community, camping, fishing, hunting, swimming and boating, photography and spending time with friends and family.

Millburn Woman Records Testimonies Of Terminally Ill To Pass On Memories To Loved Ones

By Ann Marie Barron erry Glass of Millburn spends most of her days piecing together priceless memories for others to leave behind. Through her brainchild, Memories Live, a not-forprofit enterprise she runs independently in Millburn, she helps terminally ill people capture their experiences, personalities and wisdom through custom-made movies they can pass on to their loved ones. “It’s an opportunity for them to leave a piece of themselves behind, to share their personal history and family history and tell about what made them into who they are,’’ says Glass, 44, who holds a bachelor’s 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.

Kids In Pequannock Township Are Cooking Up Some Healthy, Creative Meals

By Dawn M Chiossi ooking is much more than an important life skill. Everyone, regardless of gender, man or woman, even kids can enjoy cooking. Gone are the days when people scream at children to get away from the stove, or to put the knife down. Gone are the days where adults look down at a young person, thinking that they are just underfoot in the kitchen and have to be shooed away. Young people like to cook, as evidenced by popular food competition shows on television. They can be quite good at it. The chil- FREE Lawn dren of today are exposed to all kinds of food, healthy food, food of all textures and flavors, food from other countries and cultures.

With this understanding, Pequannock Township Parks and Recreation Department is running a program called Kids in The Kitchen. The Kids in the Kitchen Program is the brainchild of resident and business owner, Heidi Robak, who has been facilitating the program for about five years. Enthusiastic and artistic, Robak runs several various programs all over in differing towns, all creative and stemming from nature. In fact, she is so well known for some of her programs, she quips that [some people] call me the Fairy Lady.” When asked how she Care Tips came up with the idea of kids in the kitchen cooking, she states that she simply gears her ideas to what the kids want.

“I did a baking class, and the kids loved it,” she states. “So I just designed a class [based on their feedback.]” It is a well known fact that the earlier that a child is exposed to cooking and its delights, they will care about the food they are preparing and eating. The earlier they begin, the better they will be at preparing meals, being empowered in making their food choices, and caring about where their food comes from. Preparing a meal made with a person’s own hands, spending his or her own time and talents and energies, is an investment in a child’s future. “This is a wonderful way for children to develop self-esteem,” says Robak. “They learn independence and how to be self-suffi-

cient.” Cooking is fun and can be educational too. In creating a meal, a child can let his imagination soar. Cooking is not only an artistic endeavor; a person also uses measurements and sense of science in cooking. In creating a meal, the cook must

discern taste, what flavors and textures go together, and much more. When cooking, kids will learn to trust their own palates and judgments. In a world where obesity is a huge problem, when people know what they put into their food, that trans-

lates into healthier food, better food, and more economical food as well, not to mention tasty. “In the program we prepare and cook healthy food,” says Robak. “Foods like salmon and asparagus, and so much more. The kids continued on page 19

Robak has already thought of that. “These are foods that kids can cook in an hour,” she beams. With the Kids in the Kitchen Program, children of various ages can enjoy cooking and baking classes. In addition, the children of the program work in

conjunction with the Farmers’ Market in Pequannock. “Fresh food is best,” Robak says. With the Kids in the Kitchen Program, the children learn so much. Not only about cooking and baking and preparing food, according to Robak they lean essential skills such as etiquette in the kitchen. Program Coordinator of the Pequannock Township Parks and Recreation De-

partment, Amy Dempsey, states that the program has been going on for several years and is quite popular. “It’s great,” she says. Dempsey, who started her position in January, says that the Kids in the Kitchen program is slated to take place every spring and fall. Kids in the Kitchen is held at the Senior House for a variety of ages. The spring program began April 25 and lasts until May 23. It is held on Tuesdays for children 4-6 years old from 4 p.m. to 5:50 p.m., and for kids from 7 to 10 years old from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. For further information or details, call the Pequannock Township Recreation Department at 973-8355700.
