King and Queen of the Local ‘Monarchy’ Husband-and-Wife Team Work to Preserve Butterfly Population

By Lori Van Ingen “Find something you’re passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it.” – Julia Child East Lampeter Township seniors Philip and Lindy Malin have done exactly that. When they were married 33 years ago, the Malins knew they were exact opposites and had nothing in common. At that time, Philip was a proofreader for scientific publications and Lindy was director of therapies in a nursing home. If they asked each other how their day was, they knew neither would understand what the other was saying. So they decided to find something they could do together each year of their marriage. They would go to the library and find books about a particular subject, learn about it, and try it out. They called it their “Anniversary Project.” “It’s a good way for couples to stay together,” Lindy, 60, said. please see MONARCHY page 26

Together, Philip and Lindy Malin founded Malins Monarchy, where they raise and release up to 2,000 monarch butterflies each year.

Art and Antiques by Dr. Lori

Flowers Speak Volumes in Fine Art Lori Verderame istory has produced some famous artists who were also avid gardeners. For instance, Impressionist painter Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926) and his colleague, Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1911), tended flower and herb gardens at their famous artist colony of Argenteuil, France, in the early 1870s. At Monet’s home in Giverny, France, the artist enlisted the aid of fellow gardeners to care for his famous water lily pond, which was the subject for his paintings from the early 1890s until his death in 1926. A few years ago, one of Monet’s famed water lily oil-on-canvas paintings, dated 1917, sold for $24.7 million. Imogen Cunningham and Georgia O’Keeffe, of the famous early Modernist art circle active in California and New York, both were gardeners who brought their love of flowers and plants into their

In these paintings, tulips would be depicted in a Delft vase along with carnations, iris, hibiscus, zinnias, dahlias, and roses, even if the various flowers bloomed at different times of the year. The preeminent female Dutch baroque artist of this brand of still-life painting, Rachel Ruysch, painted an oil composition of Honeysuckle and Other Flowers in a Blue Glass Vase that sold for $690,600 at auction. The color of particular flowers offers special meaning when found in flower gardens. For example, lilies, white in color, are associated with the Virgin Mary, purity, and chastity. They are the flower of choice at Easter Sunday and on the feast day of the Virgin Mary. Deep-orange, dark-red, and gold chrysanthemums were brought from China to Marseilles, France, in 1789 and

were hybridized in many forms. In Asia, mums are held in high esteem and associated with long life. One of the best-known paintings of these blooms is Edgar Degas’ Woman with Chrysanthemums from 1865 in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The Dutch were charmed by carnations and often included them in watercolor albums documenting botanical examples. The carnation signified faithful love in marriage. Dutch masters, including Rembrandt, painted these and other flowers in wedding portraits of brides and grooms. Carnations are also carved into

Dutch-style corner linen cupboards of hardwoods. These cupboards were traditional gifts to newlyweds setting up housekeeping. On today’s market, the Old Master paintings are worth far more than the antique Dutch cupboards.

May 2015

Breakfast in Bed Theodore Rickard y the time our offspring had grown into young adults, Mother’s Day had become— well, almost perfunctory. There was no ill intent in this; it was just how things worked out. That Sunday in May got squashed between graduations and baseball season. With academic progress, there were no more ceramic handprints or construction-paper hearts on paper pastry doilies. Hallmark took over from the kindergarten teacher. As our daughters grew into little women and our sons into large young men, the advent of adulthood and full-time jobs turned Mother’s Day into a tableful at the local pancake restaurant. Here it was up to the oldest sister to divide up the check. She exercised an imperious assessment technique that squelched any arguments about parity. One of her brothers claimed it was very similar to the way the IRS operated with recalcitrant tax payers. Earlier, however, Mother’s Day breakfast had been a major occasion and much more complicated. And I’m sure it is colored pale rose by the passage of time. Neither of us parents has any idea where the children—before the teens set in—got the idea that breakfast in bed was an integral part of the Mother’s Day occasion. I’ll bet it came from one of those old, nauseatingly perky-happy-family TV shows with their benignly saccharine lovey-ness. These depictions gave us a disturbing sense of total parental inadequacy when faced with our own contentiously tight-knit brood. We knew we shouldn’t feel that way,

but we did anyhow. “I hate crumbs in the bedding,” the mother admitted once in an undertone whispered only to me. “Crumbs make me itch.” Parents, however, and especially mothers, learn to face these trials with courage and forbearance—and a remarkable ability to feign delight. Down in the kitchen, the breakfast-makers—then grades K through 10—would become deeply

involved in jurisdictional disputes, to say nothing of what can only be considered, as kindly as possible, to be procedural “issues.” Coffee grounds, for example, go into a little paper basket thing before the water percolates through them— as age 10 would explain loudly to anybody who would listen, and nobody did—and a dollop of butter beforehand allows eggs to be removed as integral units after frying. Her brother had learned this along with vulgar noises in a scouting overnight. Toast is no problem, since any determined 8year-old can always try again. In the midst of these learning experiences, one of the girls—her culinary competence disparaged by an older sister—stalks off the scene and plops herself down in front of the TV to watch a documentary on

the Battle of the Bulge with the sound turned up to highest-it-willgo. Breakfast is readied without her, and she will sulk just long enough for the food to get cold before rejoining her siblings on the breakfast parade up to the parental bedroom. Having flunked out as bearer of the sugar bowl, the youngest is reassigned the napkin to carry, and he drops that halfway as he stomps up each step. Back in the kitchen, the dog has lapped up most of the sugar and some spilled orange juice and followed the children. She retrieves the napkin and, convinced that this is some sort of newly invented game, refuses to give it up until it is adequately saliva-gummed and tooth-marked, found flavorless, and she’s bored with it. She then stands on the staircase landing and barks—almost loud enough to drown out the shrieking carnage of World War II still being broadcast on the floor below. “Oh, what a lovely surprise!” says Mother. Nobody contradicts her. And the once-sulker steps forward to pour the coffee, spilling hardly any at all on the eggs, where it is neatly absorbed by the toast anyway. “And you made breakfast all by yourselves!” Mother carols in a voice of silver bells. She avoids looking at me over the heads of our children. The breakfast may be inedibly cold, but the room is warm—warm as toast. A collection of Ted Rickard’s family-fun essays is titled Anything Worth Knowing I Learned from the Grandkids. It is now available in paperback on Amazon.com.

Coffee, Tea May Benefit Mental Health A cup of coffee or tea helps many people wake up in the morning, but they may also have health benefits later in life, according to recent research reported in Scientific American. One project by the National

50plus SeniorNews •

Institutes of Health studied the relationship between different kinds of beverages and depression and found that coffee consumption was associated with slightly lower rates of self-reported depression. A Chinese study found that

adults who drink tea on a regular basis had a smaller risk of depression. Other research suggests that caffeine may play a role in preventing cognitive decline, but the evidence remains inconclusive. www.50plusSeniorNewsPA.com

Salute to a Veteran

He Gulped Hard When a Million Dollars Spilled Onto the Wharf Robert D. Wilcox t the time, Louis Bibri was a lieutenant JG aboard the USS Gold Star, a supply ship the Navy used in World War II to haul supplies to ships across the southwest Pacific. In this case, the “supplies” also included payroll for thousands of sailors, and Bibri had recently been named supply officer for the ship. That made him responsible for all the cargo, including those dollars that had been lifted by a crane and were to be deposited on the ship’s deck. They were, that is, until the crane operator whacked the side of the ship just hard enough to jostle the money off the pallet that was carrying them and spread them all across the wharf. What happened then? “Well,” Bibri says, “we sure didn’t need any help in gathering up the money. But it took a quick phone call from me to the MPs to make sure the money didn’t walk

extensively, with light armament added. For many months thereafter, she made regular stops at Australian ports between Melbourne and Fremantle. Since it was expected that Japan would soon invade the Australian mainland, the Gold Star carried provisions and ammunition, as well as Australian troops and their equipment, to many Australian port cities. When Bibri came aboard in 1943, the ship would load up with all kinds of food, from bananas to Spam, all kinds of ammo, fuel … and only occasionally money. “You name it, we had it,” Bibri says. “We’d typically steam to a port like New Guinea, then distribute everything among the ships the Navy’s 7th Fleet had directed to come there to be supplied. As our troops drove the Japanese out of the eastern side of the Philippines, we often went there, too.”

He remembers how colorful it was to be anchored in one of the many ports and have so many small boats from other Navy ships converging on them to pick up needed supplies. “At times, there would be 75 to 100 boats, all jockeying for position as they closed on our ship to pick up the supplies they needed,” he says. As they traveled from port to port, they were often convoyed by Navy destroyers. But apparently they were valued more while heading toward ports than when returning to Australia, since Bibri remembers a time when, returning from the Philippines, the destroyers simply left behind his 12-knot ship, while the destroyers hustled on ahead to Darwin. In January 1945, the Gold Star was reconverted as flagship for commander, Service Squadron Nine, and made trips to Leyte in the Philippines and Hollandia. Also she sailed to such exotic ports as Biak, Morotai, Tawi-Tawi and Zamboanga. She arrived at Manila in September 1945 after three years and nine months of service entirely in the forward areas, sometimes protected in convoy, but more often sailing unescorted. She was reported sunk by the Japanese five different times: off Guam, in the Sulu Sea, off Makassar, in the Australian Bight, and finally in Bass Strait. In 21 years of service, the ship had never returned to the U.S., making her unique among naval vessels. Before the war, Bibri had graduated from Grove City College in Grove City,

Pa., with a BA in business administration and a major in accounting. He worked as an accountant for U.S. Steel in a position that was free from the draft. Nevertheless, he volunteered for the Navy in June 1943 and was admitted as an ensign. When his Navy hitch ended in April 1946, he returned to civilian life and was quickly hired by Armstrong Cork Company (now Armstrong World Industries) as an accountant at their plant in Fulton, N.Y. He rose there to become assistant controller before being assigned to their Lancaster plant. He soon became the Lancaster Floor Plant’s personnel and labor relations manager. In 1963, he became Armstrong’s general manager, industrial relations, and then director, employee relations, for the company, with its plants throughout the U.S. and overseas. He became a vice president in 1972. He retired from Armstrong in January 1983 and now lives quietly at a Lancaster County retirement community. When asked what he best recalls about his Navy days, he says, “Beside that chance to make lifelong friends of many wonderful shipmates, I would have to say it was the chance to become as familiar with the Southwest Pacific’s many islands as most of us are with the cities of Pennsylvania. It was an experience I’ll never forget.” Colonel Wilcox flew a B-17 bomber in Europe in World War II.

CARON

from page 6

“I wasn’t used to dancing in ballet shoes for six to eight hours a day,” she said. “And when I arrived in America, I had mononucleosis and was undernourished having lived through World War II and food shortages. So I was very anemic.” Throughout the ’50s, Caron appeared in other musicals, including Daddy Long Legs with Fred Astaire. “Fred and Gene came from different eras,” she noted. “Fred danced on his toes and barely touched the ground—an elegant, fluid dancer. Gene’s dancing was very athletic.” Astaire’s wife, ill from lung cancer, died during production. “He would bury his head in a towel and cry,” Caron remembered. “Fred loved the film, which had a lot of youth and joy, so I think it helped him through a very bad time.”

Caron continued to work in film and TV into the ’90s but says, “I was hitting 60 and beginning to think my career was over, so I embarked on a new venture.” Proving you are never too old to start a new chapter in life, she purchased and renovated an old building by the river just outside Paris, turning it into a successful bed and breakfast. “I managed it for about 15 years until the economy crashed.” Today, Caron hopes for more roles but remains realistic. “I’m not aiming for any Academy Awards. It just gives me a great deal of pleasure to keep working.”

Report Names Fastest-Growing Counties in Pennsylvania The U.S. Census Bureau reported recently on where the heaviest population growth in Pennsylvania was concentrated last year. The fastestgrowing county in Pennsylvania between July 1, 2013, and July 1, 2014, was Cumberland County, whose population rose 1 percent over the period. Cumberland County was followed by Chester County (0.64 percent), Lancaster County (0.60 percent), Lehigh County (0.577 percent), and Snyder County (0.573 percent).

With respect to numerical growth, Philadelphia County added 4,245 people over the period, more than any other county in the state. It was followed by Chester County, which grew by 3,284 people; Lancaster County, 3,198; Montgomery County, 3,025; and Cumberland County, 2,494. Philadelphia County is the most populous county in Pennsylvania, with 1,560,297 residents, followed by Allegheny County and Montgomery County.

This information is based on annual population estimates for each of the nation’s counties, county equivalents,

metropolitan statistical areas, and micropolitan statistical areas since the 2010 Census and up to July 1, 2014.

Older But Not Wiser

How Could They Do This?! Sy Rosen ince my daughter and son-in-law both work, my wife, Wanda, and I babysat our granddaughter, Summer, three times a week from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. On an average day, a toddler walks about 2.5 miles and has to be picked up 93 times (about the same number of times I pick up a fork). Babysitting our 20-month-old granddaughter was grueling, backbreaking, demanding work, and Wanda and I came home each day exhausted. Recently, our daughter, Ann, put Summer in daycare, and we no longer have to babysit. And, of course, our reaction was: “We miss Summer! We hate it! We’ve been demoted! How could they do this to us?!” And our next reaction, of course, was for Wanda and me to blame each other: Me: “You shouldn’t have complained so much about how hard it was.”

Wanda: “I never complained.” Me: “You groaned a lot.” Wanda: “I only groaned after you groaned.” Me (incredulous): “So I was the first groaner?” Wanda: “I’m glad you finally admit it.” After this ridiculous argument, which we both realized Wanda started (OK, I realized that), I asked Ann why she put Summer in daycare—did she not think we were doing a good job? Ann said it had nothing to do with us; we’ll still see Summer on the weekends, but some scientific studies have shown that it’s very stimulating for toddlers to have interaction with other children their own age. To which I scientifically replied, “Phooey.”

I told Ann about the scientific research done by the Grandparents United Association of America that clearly states that toddlers who are cared for by their grandparents have a greater chance to become geniuses. Unfortunately, Ann couldn’t find that study (because I haven’t written it yet). Wanda and I then decided to handle the situation like two mature adults and band together against the daycare center. I mean, what did we know about this evil place anyway? Sure, it had 420,000 “likes” on Facebook, but that could be a fluke. And sure, it got an A rating, but it didn’t get an A+. (They don’t give out A+ ratings, but I still felt justified in holding that against them.) And sure, they have music appreciation, art classes, dance parties,

and field trips to museums, but could that match the pillow forts that Wanda and I built for Summer? I think not. And—can you believe this?—they sent home daily progress reports telling how well Summer socialized and learned. Talk about putting pressure on a little kid. Our progress reports were if Summer made a “number one” or a “number two.” However, just when we were going to go full force against this daycare facility, something happened that changed our minds. They sent home a progress report stating that because of Summer’s abilities, she was being moved up to a slightly older group. Any place that realizes Summer is a genius has got be very astute, perceptive, and knowledgeable and has our full support. OK, the progress report didn’t exactly say “genius.” But grandparents know how to read between the lines.

Age Can Cause Swallowing Disorder

Nearly 40 percent of Americans 60 and older are living with a swallowing disorder known as dysphagia. Although it is a major health problem associated with aging, it has been unknown whether the condition is a natural part of healthy aging or if it is caused by an age-related disease that has yet to be diagnosed, such as Parkinson’s disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Following a recent study, researchers at the University of Missouri have established a model that identifies aging as a key factor in the development of dysphagia, which may lead to new therapeutic treatments. “As people age, and especially once they’re 50 and older, their ability to swallow quickly and safely deteriorates with each advancing decade,” said Teresa Lever, Ph.D., assistant professor of otolaryngology at the MU School of Medicine and lead author of the study. “For years, we haven’t known why. Through our research with mice, we now know this disorder can occur naturally and independent of another disease. Our next step is to study this model to determine why age-related dysphagia, also called presbyphagia, occurs and

identify ways to prevent it.” Individuals with presbyphagia generally experience slow, delayed, and uncoordinated swallowing that compromises airway function. This puts older individuals at risk for developing life-threatening malnutrition and aspiration pneumonia, which is caused when food or saliva is breathed into the lungs or airways. These risks are increased when an individual has an existing health condition, such as a neurodegenerative disease, head and neck cancer, or a major surgery. The researchers found that healthy aging mice develop symptoms of swallowing impairment that closely resemble the impairments seen in older adults: generally slowed swallowing function, impaired tongue function, larger size of the amount swallowed, and an increase in the time it takes liquid to travel through the throat to the stomach. “We’re about to change the landscape of dysphagia intervention,” Lever said. “Though more research is needed, this knowledge sets the stage for us to study ways to prevent, delay, or potentially reverse swallowing disorders using new therapies.”

The first year, because Lindy was a church musician, they picked music. It didn’t work out very well because “Lindy is the musical genius and I can’t hold a tune in a basket,” Philip, 55, said. The second year, they tried pottery because Philip had taken a course in pottery in college. “But I don’t like mud under my nails,” Lindy said. That was when they decided that their anniversary project should be something neither one of them knew anything about. They explored many subjects, from snowflakes to stained glass. From golf to angels. From Americana to carving fruits and vegetables. The couple finds that some projects don’t work out well for them, so they don’t continue on with it after their yearpursuit is over. Golf is one of those. “‘Do you mind if we play through?’ was a phrase we heard a lot,” Philip said. But their 1996 project has become a passion for the Malins that they will never let go. For that project, Philip suggested something he had seen one day growing up: A car with a box of butterflies in the back had driven into an open field to release them. The monarch butterfly piqued both of their interests, and the couple decided to learn as much about them as they possibly could. That summer, they found six monarch caterpillars feeding on milkweed plants beside a highway exit near their home. They named them King, Queen, Emperor, Empress, Prince, and Princess. Also avid photographers, the Malins photographed every step of the monarchs’ life cycle. They have since selfpublished a book about monarchs using those photos as they had found no other book that accurately portrays every aspect of the monarch butterfly. “As we read, watched, and learned as much as we could about these unique

The Malins also hope to present their own TED Talk—one of a set of global conferences on scientific, cultural, and academic topics—on the monarch butterfly’s story, called “Monarch Milkweed Meadows.” Currently, they are finalists for this year’s TEDxLancaster, an independently organized local event. “I’m a show-and-tell kind of person,” Lindy said. “Some of our favorite moments now include the looks of amazement when people see how tiny the chrysalis is that full-grown butterflies came from.” Other highlights include showing people the monarch eggs on milkweed leaves and “frass,” the scientific term for caterpillar excrement, as well as seeing people’s eyes cross as a monarch lands on their noses. Everyone also loves to try on glasses that show them how monarchs see, Philip said. The Malins are excited that the federal government has recently authorized spending $3.2 million to study the preservation of monarch butterflies. However, Philip said, “We don’t want them to be named as an endangered species.” If that were to be the case, no one would be allowed to touch them, and they would no longer be able to do their presentations, nor could they farm out tanks of monarchs to schools and doctors’ offices to raise and release. Instead, the Malins want to encourage as many people as possible to plant milkweed in their gardens and give the monarchs more places to lay their eggs. “We want to be the Johnny Appleseed of milkweed,” Philip said. “It’s not a project we’re going to give up.” Malins Monarchy can be reached for more information at malins@comcast.net.

The Way I See It

Things We No Longer Need Mike Clark couple of months ago, I was chatting with a friend about a motorcycle engine she listed for sale. I asked where the rest of the bike was. She said her husband put a new engine in it, and they wanted to get rid of the old engine, which was still in good running condition. They got tired of the thing sitting around in the garage. I told her I was just curious about the listing. I certainly had no need for a motor as my motorcycle days were long over. I didn’t think they were, but my wife declared otherwise; therefore, it must be true. Each time I stumble, trip, fall, or have a close call while mowing the grass or driving the car, she points out the folly of me riding anything with two wheels and a powerful engine. “You’d be horribly mangled, or worse, within days of getting one,” my wife tells me. I tell her I’m already horribly mangled, and worse, as it is. But that whole thing is a different story for another day. My friend went on to tell me how many other things she and her husband

www.50plusSeniorNewsPA.com

have sitting around the garage and the house that they no longer have a use for. It’s time to start clearing out, she said. That got me thinking about all the things my wife and I have accumulated over the years that I now consider “junk.” OK, much of the stuff is not really junk. We have a lot of things that are still useful—at least to someone. But we sure haven’t used any of it in years. So, why do we keep it? My friend suggested that it might be because neither one of us had much as kids. She came from a large family, and anything she could call her own was treasured. I went to Milton Hershey School, and I had no treasure to take with me when I entered; anything I needed was provided by the school. When I graduated, I was

given a hundred bucks and a suitcase with some clothes in it. It was much more than I started with, and I was glad to have it. So yes, maybe we tend to cling to things, regardless of their present value to us, because we just like having lots of things to call our own. I think the biggest reason, though, is that gathering and hoarding stuff is universally inherent. Our ancestors were hunters and gathers, after all. Gathering and hoarding was necessary for survival back then. But now? Maybe we haven’t evolved completely. Oh, there are those rare people who adhere to a strict minimalist philosophy or are feng shui fanatics. They don’t share our compulsion to own and squirrel away things. I’m suspicious of those

folks. It is cult-like thinking, as far as I’m concerned. I realize I’ll probably never again use most of the things I have tossed aside. However, as soon as I sell some of it, or give it to some charity, I’ll suddenly need it. It has happened before, I tell you. Nevertheless, I know I must make some tough decisions and start clearing out the things I no longer need, even if I think it might come back to haunt me. Then I told my wife I was going to start clearing out the garage. I had to start somewhere, I said. She wanted to know why I was starting there when my workshop and tool shed were in greater need of a purge. I told her I needed to make room for a motorcycle. That, as they say, is when the fight started. Mike Clark writes a regular column for The Globe Leader newspaper in New Wilmington, Pa.

Deal Me In By Mark Pilarski

Only Nostradamus Can Predict When a Machine is Due to Hit Dear Mark: You mentioned that a slot machine might be programmed to return 88 percent of the wagered money back in wins. My question: Is there a selected timeframe (daily, monthly, life of the machine) or a specific amount (every 100, 10,000 pulls) for this 88 percent return to happen? – Richard B. Because a random number generator selects all of the symbols arbitrarily, nobody, and that includes the casino owners, knows the whereabouts of where the machine is in its payout cycle. What the programming does tell the house is that after millions and millions of decisions, X amount of money will be won by the casino and lost by the players. Using your 88 percent return as an example, all the slot manager does is order a quarter machine with that hold percentage from the manufacturer, and over a “period of time,” that quarter

machine is going to pay back to the gamblers 12 percent of the total amount wagered. As to your question, Richard—what is that period of time?—figure approximately 10 million yanks of the handle, which is typically the number the slot maker has determined it would take for that particular machine to achieve that overall 12 percent hold calculation. Prior to those 10 million spins, the machine will go through incalculable hot and cold cycles, but as the slot closes in on that 10 million-yank mark, it’s going to hold pretty darn close to that 12 percent payout mark. Dear Mark: What is the house edge on the game Free Bet Blackjack? I know

it is helped by the push of a 22, but the free bet option is nice. – David G. Using a more simplified basic strategy than regular blackjack, the house edge on Free Bet Blackjack is approximately 1 percent. Because I did a Q&A on this game in 2014, allow me, David, to direct you to my website (http://markpilarski.com) and have you search “Is Free Bet Blackjack Really a Freebie?” for a complete analysis on this variant of blackjack. Dear Mark: I was playing blackjack where someone was continuously splitting face cards. Most everyone was giving her a lot of crap. Finally, the

SATURDAY

MAY 16th 10 AM -6 PM

On Memorial Day, we honor men and women who died while courageously serving in the U.S. military. We also recognize active-duty service members, especially those who have been wounded. Cities and towns across the United States host Memorial Day parades to thank our service members and their families for their sacrifices. Policymakers put into place laws and benefits to protect our heroes and their families. For example, Social Security provides survivors, disability, retirement, and Medicare benefits. Not only does Social Security have benefits to protect veterans, but we also provide family benefits to protect service members’ dependents. Widows, widowers, and their dependent children may be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits. You can learn more about Social Security survivors benefits at www.socialsecurity .gov/survivors. Wounded military service members can also receive expedited processing of their disability claims. For example, Social Security will provide expedited processing of disability claims filed by veterans who have a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) compensation rating of 100 percent permanent and total (P&T). Depending on the situation, some

family members of military personnel, including dependent children and, in some cases, spouses, may be eligible to receive benefits. You can get answers to commonly asked questions and find useful information about the application process at www.socialsecurity.gov/ woundedwarriors. Service members can also receive Social Security as well as military retirement benefits. The good news is that your military retirement benefit doesn’t reduce your Social Security retirement benefit. Learn more about Social Security retirement benefits at www.socialsecurity. gov/retirement. You may also want to visit the Military Service page of our Retirement Planner, available at www.socialsecurity.gov/retire2/veterans.htm. Service members are also eligible for Medicare at age 65. If you have health insurance from the Department of Veterans Affairs, or under the TRICARE or CHAMPVA programs, your health benefits may change, or end, when you become eligible for Medicare. Learn more about Medicare benefits at www.socialsecurity.gov/medicare. In acknowledgement of those who died for our country, those who served, and those who serve today, we at Social Security honor and thank you. John Johnston is a Social Security public affairs specialist.

Take a Moment of Remembrance this Memorial Day To ensure the sacrifices of America’s fallen heroes are never forgotten, in December 2000, the U.S. Congress passed and the president signed into law “The National Moment of Remembrance Act,” P.L. 106-579, creating the White House Commission on the National Moment of Remembrance. The commission’s charter is to “encourage the people of the United States to give something back to their country, which provides them so much freedom and opportunity” by encouraging www.50plusSeniorNewsPA.com

and coordinating commemorations in the United States of Memorial Day and the National Moment of Remembrance. The National Moment of Remembrance encourages all Americans to pause wherever they are at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day for a minute of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the nation. As Moment of Remembrance founder Carmella LaSpada states: “It’s a way we can all help put the memorial back in Memorial Day.”
