POULSBO — The annual North Kitsap School District Festival of the Arts is a way for students to really “get their creative juices flowing,” seventhgrader Izzy Poole said. Poole is one of many students who will have their work shown during the festival, which includes students from every school in the district. Poole is one of the fashion students at Kingston Middle School who are working on a fashion show for the festival, making artistic clothes out of garbage bags. “In the art show, we’re going to put them on, we’re going to walk across the stage and then we’re going to have my friend Heidi (Lenz) over here talking about the dresses while we’re walking across the stage,” Poole said. The festival will also include other performances like choirs, drummers, acrobatics, guitarists, dance and more. It will feature fiber arts, paintings and drawings, pottery, a “make and take” section, a community papier-mache project and more. This year, it will be from 5-8 See FESTIVAL, Page A12

LITTLE BOSTON — Samuel White, a member of the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe, joined the Port Gamble
S’Klallam Police Department as chief of police on Oct. 22. He’s spent 12 years in law enforcement, including serving as police chief in Neah Bay for the Makah Nation. He was director of the Public Safety Department and spent almost four years there. Most recently, he spent about four years with the Suquamish Police
Department as a sergeant. Recently, White talked to the North Kitsap Herald about his new job and his goals for the department. Herald: Can you tell me about your department — number of officers, type of equipment, etc.? White: It’s a total of 10. That includes the chief and
the support specialist, one sergeant and one lieutenant. The rest are patrol. Right now, it’s a small, small agency, so our living space … is very limited. We’ve got very good patrol cars. We operate on the standard equipment that every other law enforcement See Q&A, Page A12

Elementary students build underwater vehicles By MICHELLE BEAHM
Poulsbo Elementary students Ellie Lewis, Kailey Hawkins and Madison Weiler adjust the buoyancy of their ROV.
mbeahm@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — Fifthgraders at Poulsbo Elementary School had a unique opportunity for hands-on learning. With the help of their teacher Mike Hickam and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard engineer and education outreach coordinator Corinne Beach, the class designed and built Remote Operated Vehicles, or ROVs, for underwater use. “It’s all about engineering and next-generation science standards, which really emphasize engineering,” Hickam said. The students worked on designing their underwater ROVs in teams, then built them out of PVC pipe, three engines and batteries. On April 15, they tested the vehicles for neutral buoyancy; on April 16, they took their ROVs to the Puget Sound Navy Museum in Bremerton, where they put their ROVs through an obstacle course, including tasks such as picking items up from the bottom

of the pool and navigating through squares. Hickam said, “It’s been about real life and seeing how the science and the engineering happens in the real world. “We had someone here yesterday that actually works for the Navy and what their job is is to go out and purchase underwater remote vehicles for
the Navy, and he said that the process we’re going through is the exact same process that the Navy uses to build and purchase underwater remote vehicles, so it’s very true to real life.” Hickam said one of the benefits of projects like these is the hands-on, reallife experience. “You can learn all the

science out of a book and that’s great,” he said, “but to see it in action and to be
able to actually go through the engineering project to be able to design something, and then try it and see how it works and make changes … (is) powerful.” Beach has participated in projects like this with “several elementary schools,” as well as middle and high schools. She also felt handson learning opportunities were important for the students. “Here, they’re seeing it, they’re doing it and they’re immersed in it,” Beach said, “so the understanding and the learning, I think, is

much better.” Hickam said the students get this opportunity because of a Department of Defense grant, which enables the school district to have a science leadership team to oversee science education. This helps the school district get in front of the new standards for science education. Community response, he added, has “been very positive.” “The parents are thankful that the students are able to go through this process,” he said. “The students are so excited. They’ve been looking forward to this and they really get how the science comes into play. “They’re going to remember this for the rest of their lives.”

IN OUR OPINION
Relay For Life: Making strides against cancer R
elay For Life of North Kitsap begins at 6 p.m. July 10 and continues into July 11, at North Kitsap Stadium, 1780 NE Hostmark St., Poulsbo. Every year, this event raises tens of thousands of dollars for the American Cancer Society. As you read this, 20 teams of North Kitsap people like you are raising money in a variety of ways for Relay For Life. And you are making a difference. Thanks in part to funds raised by Relay For Life events nationwide, the American Cancer Society has spent more than $4 billion in research for a cure and has about $500 million in research grants in effect today. The result: In 1946, 25 percent of cancer patients lived at least five years after diagnosis; today, that rate is 60 percent. According to the American Cancer Society, nearly 14 million people in the U.S. who have had cancer will celebrate birthdays this year — thanks to progress in early detection and treatment. Money by Relay For Life supports local services, as well as research leading to cures and improved quality of life. Money raised pays for hotel discounts for people who must travel for treatment. Money raised supports Look Good Feel Good, which helps women being treated for cancer learn special cosmetic techniques to manage the appearance-related side effects of cancer and its treatment. Money raised supports Road to Recovery, which provides rides to and from treatment for patients who do not have a ride or are unable to drive themselves.

U
nited Way of Kitsap County has been making an impact and a difference in our community since 1937. We have helped to support local organizations working on housing, homelessness, child care, support for seniors and feeding the hungry, along with myriad other needed services. We have collaborated with local organizations and helped to impact thousands of lives year after year. Supporting the safety net of services has been and is important, yet the number of people needing services continues to grow. As with many areas of the country, United Way of Kitsap County found it necessary to adapt to changing times. In 2010, United Way helped to organize the Kitsap Community Health Priorities, or KCHP, inviting organizations, businesses and government leaders, educators, medical professionals, citizens and the Navy to participate in the process to determine the most pressing, critical issues facing our community. That is the reason United Way’s Board
MY VIEW By RICH PETERSON of Directors has used the KCHP results to develop a strategic plan that focuses on early education, health, housing and homelessness as the key community-driven issues needing laser-like focus. This is a big shift and, when closely examined, it takes us back to our roots: community impact. Early education, health, housing and homelessness came up in the final phase of KCHP in September 2014 as the most important issues in our community. If we are to have an impact on and reduce the levels of poverty, we must begin by ensuring that our children at all levels of the economic scale are ready to enter kindergarten. Education is the single best solution to ending the cycle of poverty in families. Education is the key to good health, good jobs, good housing and a good life. We are working and will continue to work with other corporate and nonprofit organi-

We also partner with the foundation and the Suquamish Tribe in our work with the Gates Foundation to build community philanthropy, working with several community organizations on stemming Adverse Childhood Experiences and building resiliency in our children for the future. All of this work is aimed at addressing the root causes of systemic problems rather than treating the symptoms. Our intention is not to provide direct service or to duplicate or compete with any other efforts already in place. We will be at the table as a funder and we will leverage our resources and relationships to bring the community together on priority issues through KCHP. Through KCHP, we will analyze key community data to determine root causes of issues and, alongside our partners, will strategize and align with the issues.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR If we want a cure, we must invest There are more than 100,000 Washingtonians living with Alzheimer’s disease, with more than 300,000 caregivers. For the past 16 years, I have volunteered to facilitate caregiver support groups in the cities where I lived, which included Loveland, Colorado, and Bremerton. I have seen first-hand how Alzheimer’s disease affects not only the person, but every member
of their families, friends and even the healthcare system. As a clinical pharmacist, I am disappointed in how little progress we have made over the course of the past few decades toward finding a successful way to delay or eliminate this long-term disease. In addition to being the sixth-leading cause of death, Alzheimer’s is also the most expensive disease in the nation, costing families and taxpayers a total of $226 billion in 2015. That number will grow to $1.1
trillion in 2050, potentially bankrupting Medicare in the process. Just a few weeks ago, more than 1,000 advocates from all 50 states attended the Alzheimer’s Association Advocacy Forum in Washington, D.C., where they met with our members of Congress and requested immediate action on Alzheimer’s disease. I want to thank Rep. Derek Kilmer for agreeing to send a letter to the Appropriations Committee in support of $300 million more for Alzheimer’s
research in fiscal 2016 and for cosponsoring the HOPE for Alzheimer’s Act (H.R. 1559/S. 857) that will provide critical care planning to people newly-diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I hope we can count on Sens. Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray to support increasing Alzheimer’s research funding by $300 million. We must simultaneously support the families currently facing this disease. I urge both senators to cosponsor the HOPE for Alzheimer’s Act. Concerned citizens
should contact senators Cantwell and Murray and ask that they join Rep. Kilmer in support of this crucial Alzheimer’s funding. Visit alz.org/advocacy to get involved with the fight against Alzheimer’s. GAIL BOSCH Bremerton

Continued from page A4 solve critical issues. Here is a story to illustrate why we need to change our focus: A villager is walking by the river early one morning and sees a baby floating down the river. Horrified, the villager races into the water, grabs the baby and brings the baby to shore. The baby is fine. Relieved, the villager sees another baby floating
down the water. Soon the entire village comes running to the river to rescue as many babies as they can before the water carries them away. But the babies keep on coming because no one is going upstream to put a stop to the ogre throwing the babies into the water in the first place. United Way needs to gather a contingent of villagers to go upstream and stop the ogre! We are faced with complex issues, access to quality early learning,
childhood obesity, affordable housing, homelessness and good jobs. KCHP helps us identify what’s important and we need your help in the process. We know that the recession and slow recovery has affected the level of charitable giving, but it is time to take a laser-like focus and address these issues. As a community, we need to come together to help move the needle on these core issues and make Kitsap County a better place to live. We want

Many have known the luxury of a spa pedicure, but could a pedicure actually have health benefits too?
Proper nail care is essential in preventing ingrown toenails. Regular pedicures can help prevent nail disease and foot odor. Exfoliation, or the sloughing off of dead skin cells, prevents cells from accumulating and causing painful bunions or corns. Massage moisturizes the newly exfoliated skin, promotes circulation and soothes tired aching calves and feet. Let’s face it; taking time out to pamper our feet can reduce stress. Gone are the days when this kind of foot care was a luxury only for the ladies who lunch.

pin this life of service and dedication — and those years look very good on Morrow. She was lucky enough to have the powerful example of two kind and loving parents who thought of others first. “Even when times were hard, my parents cared for their workers on the farm like they were family,” she said. She was raised in a home where generosity and concern for the common good was taught and expressed through action. These values have guided her throughout her life. She didn’t start out imagining herself in public life — she is just the kind of person that sees a problem as an opportunity to make things better and does her part. For example, as she and her husband began their family, they wanted

here was a time when child-protection laws required the abused child be removed from the home. A traumatic situation became worse for the confused, scared child who then lost any stability he or she once had. Today, the perpetrator is removed and the child can remain. This is just one of the ways that Ardis Morrow has had a hand in making the world trustworthy for our children. Throughout her 90 years, Morrow has consistently been a voice for the voiceless. She has rarely considered her own contentment and comfort because she is too busy making life better for others, dedicating her life to education, public policy and ending the plague of domestic violence.

Continued from page A6 the best education possible for their children, and they knew that one way to do that was to get involved. She worked vigorously to improve standards and make schools a priority for all legislators and local leaders. “Education is the key for everything,” Morrow said, “and I didn’t mind reminding newly elected leaders of this.” She served for several years on the North Kitsap School Board. As her children entered high school, Morrow began to work in the realestate profession, spending over 20 years as an agent, broker and agency owner. She is also a long-standing member in the League of Women Voters and served as a Port of Kingston commissioner. She had a passion for art, and served as an art docent for more than 35 years. She and her husband Burton travelled extensively, which she believes truly broadened
her life view. “Much of my education during those years was learning about people and different ways of life through travel.” But it was a personal tragedy that in many ways has defined Morrow and her life mission. The loss of her 3-year-old great-grandnephew Eli, who died in 1986 when he was fatally beaten by his father, moved Morrow to a personal campaign to stop similar deaths. “I wanted to understand more about people, how someone could do that to a child. Then I asked, why can’t we protect people in danger, how do we elect people to do something about this? How do we create a world where this kind of violence never happens?” Morrow would go on to testify in front of the Legislature, having a hand in changing many laws, social-service procedures and training for social workers. She worked with local authorities to create local transitional housing for vic-
tims of domestic violence, called Eli’s Place, and is working on increasing that capacity with the creation of Morrow Manor. “As long as hundreds are turned away every month because we don’t have room, I’ll keep working on increasing housing options and awareness about this growing problem.” As a longtime member of Poulsbo Rotary, Morrow has been able to enlist the help of the club. “The Rotary has been a catalyst in getting the word out and identifying tangible ways to help,” she said. It was a member of the Rotary who donated the acreage upon which the planned Morrow Manor will be built, eight units of transitional housing for victims of domestic violence that will be constructed and staffed thanks to Rotary’s support. Her focus upon the wellbeing of others surely must be a key to the long and healthy life of this vibrant, energetic community warrior. Through her example and her hard

Bill Austin and Ardis Morrow have devoted decades of their lives to serving the community. Steve Garfein / Contributed work, our community is safer and can look towards a future where victims will be safe as well. “I just want all children to have a happy life like I had. Education and awareness are the keys to that. There is much left to do, but we are making so much progress.” It is that view — that we should never stop trying; that the power of one becomes the power
of many — that inspires all those who are lucky enough to share some time with Ardis Morrow. Her unique mixture of passionate community activism and light-hearted humor helps her amass an army of helpers whenever she puts out the call. She hopes that she can be a spark to bring about lasting change and wants everyone to know they can be too.

Continued from page A7 small child, “often waking up in air raid shelters,” so used to the sounds of war that he could sleep right through them. The image of London burning has never left him. “I remember even at that early age the sounds of Doodlebugs (V1 flying bombs) and the images of flames from burning buildings in the distance, making the night sky red,” Austin said. When the war was over, Austin and his family lived a normal life in post-war England. Leaving grammar school at 15, his first job was as a sign writer/ painter. He entered into a seven-year apprenticeship
“I remember the images of flames from burning buildings in the distance, making the night sky red.” — Bill Austin, remembering when his hometown, London, was bombed during World War II
with a goal of learning how “to make a store front look so inviting that it sucks people in.” He learned later that his great-uncle was a master sign painter, going on to create signs for Queen Victoria and even painting the Lord’s Prayer on the back of a sixpence, a small coin. Another great-uncle
immigrated to Canada and would become a famous builder in Hamilton, Ontario. These two skill sets would play pivotal roles in Austin’s life later on. Even when Austin joined the British Army in the 1950s, he was immediately put to work as a regimental sign maker. “I remember painting gold leafs on the guns for the Queen’s coronation.” Upon his return from the service, Austin heard that Canada needed good sign makers. Being close to his aunt and uncle in the area prompted his decision to follow that call, and he immediately got work making $1.75 an hour. Later, another call reached Austin , but this time it was to make signs

in Seattle, and for $4.75 an hour. He jumped at the chance and remembers crossing the Aurora Bridge when he first arrived and saw a big metal thing reaching into the sky, half constructed. He would find out later he was watching the Space Needle being built. Years later, in 1971, Austin knew it was time to branch out and find another community that was a perfect blend of small town and business opportunity. He found that in Poulsbo, and opened a restaurant with an English friend that featured the fare of their homeland. It was called the Poulsbo Inn and harkened back to the pubs so prevalent in England. That business venture did not end well, with a falling out with the business partner that ultimately caused the restaurant to fail. That prompted a dark, difficult time in the life of Bill Austin. “I remember while all
“I love building things. And I will continue to do what I do as long as I can, to better our community.” — Bill Austin
this was happening, I was walking in the rain, with no car, no house, no idea of what was next.” It was in that hard time that Austin decided a change would do him good. He began focusing on building and opened the Austin Sign Company in 1974. The projects started rolling, with Austin creating structures that would include the Aroy Dy Thai restaurant, the Austin Towers complex with its waterfall, the Kvelstad Pavilion — now AustinKvelstad Pavilion — on the waterfront, and Nelson Park. In the years that fol-
lowed, Austin worked tirelessly on one project after another, all the while donating his money when needed, volunteering his time to help local charities, hanging with a group of long-time friends and watching Poulsbo grow. It all seems very natural to Austin — “I like to buy old buildings and make them better. I enjoy it so much, it doesn’t feel like work. I guess you could say my life is my hobby — I love building things. And I will continue to do what I do as long as I can, to better our community.” Poulsbo is indelibly engraved with the dedication and creative spirit of this amazing, special man, and his legacy is assured.

OULSBO — After 20 years, the owner of Poulsbo’s specialty kitchen shop has decided to close. “I did it to prove I could do it,” Sharon Lucas, owner of Kitchen Karousel, said of why she opened the shop two decades ago. “I can’t tell you who told me that I couldn’t do it, but he did and I was set to prove him wrong.” She was 45 years old then. “I guess you could call it an empty-nest job. Both my kids were grown and my husband was retired. It was a good opportunity to do something new and earn some extra money.” Sharon and her husband Paul traveled to many exotic locations during his time in the Navy before settling in Poulsbo in 1987. They had ventured to Italy, Japan, Hawaii and both coasts of the U.S., experiencing a wide variety of different cuisines. When asked if she was

Kitchen Karousel, a unique cookery boutique with “kitchenware from around the world,” is located at 18846 NE Front St., downtown. The site was once the Five Swans gift shop owned by Marion Sluys, then became Scoops ice cream parlor. In 1995, Sharon began her business by renting the back of the shop. “It wasn’t until Scoops closed down in 1997 that Kitchen Karousel took over the location complete-

Local anglers set up trio of festivities celebrating fishing BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
When it comes to protecting the environment, the first thing that comes to mind is probably not fishing. Fishing, it would seem, and protecting nature, are not copacetic endeavors. But they can be. It really depends on who’s doing the fishing, Chris Taylor said. Taylor is president of the Kitsap-Olympic Peninsulas chapter of Trout Unlimited, a national fly fishing promotion and conservation advocacy group dedicated to fish habitat restoration and youth environmental education. Trout Unlimited will host three fly-fishing events on Bainbridge Island in the coming weeks heralding the start of prime fishing season and spreading awareness of their ongoing local restoration projects.
Above: Trout Unlimited is a conservation group dedicated to fish habitat restoration on the local, state and national level, including many projects in this region. Above, the annual Youth Fly Fishing Expo is scheduled 1-4 p.m. May 3 at the pond at Battle Point Park, Bainbridge Island. Chris Taylor / Contributed The events include the only screening of films in the 2015 Fly Fishing Film Tour on this side of Puget Sound — 7 p.m. May 2 at Island Center Hall.
The original and preeminent exhibition of fly-fishing cinema, “The F3T” is a one-of-a-kind experience. Each year, people who love fish and fishing gather at

premieres to watch films from around the world. This year’s festival will showcase 11 short films made in the last year highlighting the joys of fly fishing, Taylor said. “They’re beautifully shot,” he said. “The visuals are gorgeous.” Since its inception in 2007, F3T has grown in attendance each year, reaching nearly 50,000 anglers across North America last season.

Taylor said Trout Unlimited will rent a large popcorn machine for the festival, which will be the perfect place for anglers of all experience levels to come together and swap fish stories. Tickets are now on sale. General admission is $20 per person. Visit www. thef3t.com to purchase. Discounted tickets are also available; the price is $17 locally at Peninsula Outfitters (Poulsbo) and Wildernest (Bainbridge Island). All proceeds from the event will benefit: ■ Casting for Recovery, an organization that seeks to enhance the quality of life of women with breast cancer through a program that combines cancer education and peer support with the therapeutic sport of fly fishing through organized retreats. ■ Local Trout Unlimited wild steelhead and salmon habitat restoration projects. “We’ve got a lot of restoration projects going right now and we need to raise money to make those happen,” Taylor said, explaining that the organization primarily engages in projects to restore wild steelhead and salmon runs and recover spawning habitats. “We reconnect broken waterways where, maybe, culverts have gone in,” he said. “Ultimately, we like to See FLYFISHING, Page A11
Ex-Mariner Moyer will visit Kitsap for event POULSBO — Former Seattle Mariner pitcher Jamie Moyer and his wife Karen will be the keynote speakers for the 15th annual Celebration of Philanthropy, 5:30 p.m. May 15 at the Bremerton Conference Center.

“It’s all about creating that connection so they can become the stewards of tomorrow.” — Chris Taylor, Trout Unlimited
This one’s all about the kids, Taylor said. “One of the things we want to do is dispel the myth that fly fishing is highly technical and elitist,” he said. “It’s neither.” In addition to promoting the sport as a healthy outdoor activity, Taylor said, the expo gives experienced anglers a chance to share
their love of nature and the outdoors with children who may otherwise not get such experiences. “One of the greatest things about this expo is we’re trying to help kids connect with nature,” he said. “A lot of them are young and they’ve never connected because they’ve been connected to their
Page A11
screens. “That’s one of the big goals. We’re worried that a lot of the stewards of today are going to get older and can’t really help.” Given the chance and a proper introduction, Taylor said, most kids really enjoy fishing and the older anglers aspire to “help them feel the rush of
connecting with that fish through a line.” Fishing helps them learn about bugs, fish and other animals and how the ecosystem works together because they’ve seen it in action. “And then we teach them how to take care of the environment,” especially sustainable fishing practices,
Taylor said. “It’s all about creating that connection so they can become the stewards of tomorrow.” To learn more about Trout Unlimited and its ongoing restoration projects and upcoming events, visit www.kop.tu.org.

Festival
Continued from page A1 p.m. April 29 at Kingston Middle School. Admission is free. The location changes every year, said Kingston Middle School art teacher Diane Stewart. “As art teachers, we get an opportunity to really be the leader of it for a year,” Stewart said, “which is kind of exciting. Kind of exciting and a little nerve wracking.” Since this is Stewart’s year to be “the head honcho,” she added a unique feature to the festival: an Empty Bowls drive. “It’s about a 25- to 30-year(old) thing, where artists make bowls and donate
Q&A
Continued from page A1 agencies operate with here, as far as personal protective equipment for each officer’s standard equipment. Herald: What are some of the challenges you confront in providing law enforcement on the reservation? White: One of the challenges is, like all law enforcement agencies, 2 percent of the people cause 90 percent of the problems. [And] the jurisdiction is limited … If [suspects] go out to another jurisdictional area, it makes it harder to track people down. The casino adds another element of trouble as well, with the amount of traffic. It adds a different realm of security and enforcement.

them, and then people will fill them with soup or salad or whatever the people decide, and then the people get to keep the bowls,” Stewart said. The bowls are “sold” for donations; the proceeds go to charity. At the Festival of the Arts, the bowls will be filled with ice cream, and the donations — $10 is suggested, but Stewart said people can donate more if they want — will go to ShareNet, a food bank and thrift store in Kingston. The donations are taxdeductible. “I wanted to make sure that I gave a clear message to my art students that I think art can make a real difference in the world,” Stewart said, “so whenever artists take their time
and donate pieces of artwork and then give the money away, I think that’s a very important message — that art really can save the world, like the bumper sticker says.” But the festival benefits more than ShareNet. It also benefits students. “I think that we see a lot of athletes shining and we get to see a lot of people have a way to celebrate their uniqueness,” Stewart said, “and I think the Festival of the Arts really brings out a lot of kids that might be overlooked, and so I think it really gives some kids an opportunity to seriously shine.” Lenz said, “It shows (students) teamwork, working with others, getting ideas from all sorts of places and
it just boosts their creativity and their social life.” Poole added, “It’s fun for people to look at their friends’ art.” Participating students have the chance to win prizes. Each art teacher chooses six or seven pieces of art to “win,” and Superintendent Patty Page picks an elementary, middle and high school piece of art to buy and display at the district administration building for a year. Autumn Hale, a seventh-grader at Kingston Middle School, participated in last year’s festival and received one of the prizes. “It made me feel like I had accomplished something,” Hale said, “because I had made a vessel and when I won the award,
it just, it felt amazing to win, and my whole family’s proud of me because of it.” Stewart said, “everybody has a right to have their art be seen, no matter what level they’re at. “I think that people are really happy that we’ve done this sort of thing. It’s just nice to see people so
excited.” For more information about the Festival of the Arts, visit the district website, www.nkschools.org. For more information about the Empty Bowls Project, visit www.emptybowls.net.
All in all, it’s just the same as other law enforcement agencies. Just some of it is more confined and makes it more visible, I guess, in the eyes of the community, so sometimes problems appear bigger than they actually are. Herald: In what cases do Port Gamble S’Klallam police respond off-reservation, and do you foresee any opportunities for your department to contribute to law enforcement and public protection outside reservation boundaries, through a county mutual aid agreement or cross-deputization? White: Where we’re at right now [is] we need to establish [a] mutual aid [agreement] with Kitsap County. If we had to respond to emergency incidents, we will if we have to, but it is better to have
established mutual aid. Maybe down the road, with full staff — two positions are vacant — and the agency is running like I’d want it to, maybe we can establish further aid. Right now, it’s not anywhere near it, because I’m not up to full staff right now and I haven’t hit the training levels that we would need in order to do that. Right now, all our officers are not only statebut federal-certified. Getting to that point of being able to venture on to that next phase — mutual aid — after all that is established, then you can discuss cross commission. And there’s a lot of hurdles and issues to discuss before you ever even consider it — what the Tribe is willing to open up to, risk vs. reward [and] is it worth it? I don’t even want to discuss it at this point in time, until I’ve
got certain things in place. Herald: What do you feel about the general public’s understanding of your department — do people understand Tribal police authority? — and how do you plan on improving that understanding? White: I think the local community that we provide services to understands it very, very clearly. I think people outside the area don’t understand it as clearly as the local community does. The community we provide services to understands our authority, understands our services. The things we can do to improve it, there’s a lot. One, public information releases, which is very similar to reporting to newspapers, and expanding community education. Herald: What are your future goals for the depart-
ment? White: First goal I have to establish is, I’ve got to get up to full staff, have every officer trained through the basic police academy, which primarily focuses on federal law; through the equivalency academy, which primarily focuses on state law; and Washington State Tribal Officer certification. With that, it’s one of the bigger steps toward cross commission and mutual aid. It opens you up to more audits, but it’s a good step to go toward. Second phase is to get all the equipment replaced. Hopefully, if we get the 2015 Cops Grant, life will be great. If we get it, it re-outfits officers head to toe — new equipment, new vehicles. It would make the world a much easier place. If we don’t get it, then we’re looking at a very systematic
approach to replacing out their personal protective gear — uniforms, Tasers, etc. It’s going to be a much longer road to that endeavor. We’re already working on joint operations with the Suquamish Police Department. At this point, it’s at the training level; we’re working on assisting each other, joint training with them and joint community operations, such as the RAD (Rape Aggression Defense) program. Then I can finally look at cross commission and look at the pros and cons [of that] with the Tribal Council. But there’s a lot of issues with even venturing toward that goal. But I’ll establish legwork, so if we want to decide that, we can approach it.

It will be hard, but I’m ready to start a new chapter.
Ruth Fullerton Brown April 4, 1922-April 6, 2015 Ruth Brown passed away peacefully on April 6 in Vancouver, WA, where she had been lovingly tended by her oldest granddaughter, Julie Able. She was born in Cosmopolis, WA, to Dale and Ada Fullerton, 2nd of 12 children. The family later moved to Port Gable where she grew up. Ruth graduated from North Kitsap Union High School where she was a cheerleader, member of National Honor Society, on the yearbook staff, and in choir. She met Don Brown who was working at the mill in Port Gamble, and they married in the Episcopal Church in October 1940. The newlyweds lived briefly in Seattle before moving to Seaside, OR, and later to Sweet Home, OR. In 1951, the Browns moved to Eugene, OR, which became their permanent home. Ruth worked for many years at the University of Oregon, retiring in 1985. She and Don enjoyed the Oregon coast and trips to other parts of the country, including the east coast and Hawaii. She cared for Don throughout a more-than 10-year period of decline until his death. Ruth is remembered for being a caring and involved mother, grandmother, and friend; her generosity, her tireless energy, impeccable housekeeping, wonderful baking/candy making/gardening/vegetables. Her concern and caring for all her family and friends was apparent in that she never failed to send birthday cards to everyone she knew, prepare food for anyone who was ill, or help problem-solve when there was need. Ruth was preceded in death by husband Don in 1998, brothers Dale, Edwin, John, Thomas, Bob, Ray and sisters June and Esther. She is survived by sisters Margaret, Bette, Mary; daughters Judie Kasnick of Poulsbo and Susan (Glen) Bowden of Rogue River, OR; grandchildren Julie (Chris) Able, Kari Schibler, Laurie Hillenbrand, Chris Schibler, Tiffany Schibler, Michael Snelson and Dan (Rachel) Snelson; 6 great grandchildren and 3 great-great-grandchildren. She was moved from the family home in Eugene in 2011 to be near her granddaughter Julie in Vancouver. At her request, there will be no formal service. Family will gather to scatter ashes at the Oregon Coast and in Port Gamble at a later date. Remembrances may be made to Trinity United Methodist Church, 440 Maxwell Rd., Eugene, OR 97404.

“There are multiple reasons,” she explained when pondering the closure. “The Internet is killing us. Sometimes we spend 45 minutes talking about a product to a customer, they get all the information about it and leave to purchase it for a lower price online.” However, most importantly, Lucas said, “I’m 66 years old. I want to do something different.” She’s looking forward to spending more time with

James Nelson January 1, 1935 - April 7, 2015 James “Jim” Everett Nelson, 80, of Kingston, WA succumbed to renal-cell carcinoma at Martha & Mary’s in Poulsbo on April 7th, 2015 surrounded by his family. James was born January 1, 1935 in Hitterdal, Minnesota to William and Lucille (Wahl) Nelson. James had an older brother named Lester. James’ father worked for the telephone company. Following work, the family moved to Detroit Lakes and then Robbinsdale before settling in the Seattle area in 1948. James went to Lincoln High School and graduated from there in 1952. After high school, James attended the University of Washington for a year, and then he transferred to Concordia College in Minnesota joining his brother, Lester. James played on Concordia’s ice hockey team, and he graduated in 1957. After college, James enlisted in the Army. He joined the reserves and was honorably discharged as “Captain” after 13 years’ service. In 1960, James got a job at Boeing. He worked his way up the corporate latter from “Storekeeper” to “Senior Supervisor” and remained there during a large company layoff. On March 3, 1962 he married Yutta (Polster) Nelson from Germany. Together, they bought, managed, and sold real estate. They also had two children, who they raised in Issaquah, WA. James retired from Boeing after 37 years, and James and Yutta built their own home on Gamble Bay. Though James and Yutta did their share of traveling, they would often joke that their favorite place to visit was “home.” James was a good provider and a loving father and grandfather. He was known for his sense of humor, integrity, and a high level of personal responsibility. James was described by those who knew him as: supportive, spiritual, and “a class act.” May he rest in peace. James is survived by: his mother, Lucille Kane (98); his wife of 53 years, Yutta Nelson; their two children, John and Robin Nelson; two grandchildren, Adelle (12) and Julian (10); his brother, Les Nelson; his sister, Laurie Kane; one niece and two nephews; and his best friend, Donald Ross. James was preceded in death by his father, William Nelson. A direct burial for James Everett Nelson was held on April 14th at Stone Chapel, 22272 Foss Road NE, Poulsbo, WA 98370. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the American Cancer Society: 1-800-227-2345. TRIBUTE Paid Notice

Karousel has been a part of Poulsbo’s community. “You can’t get rich in downtown Poulsbo, but it’s been fun,” Lucas said, adding, “The best way to keep a successful business downtown is to be honest with your customers, pay your bills on time and never close on Mondays.” Nikki McCann, an employee of Kitchen Karousel for nearly eight years, said, “It’s a lot of hard work. But I’ve been so fortunate to have had
such great employees. I don’t really think about how long I’ve worked here, I’ve enjoyed it so much.” The business’ lease will end in August, but Lucas hopes the inventory will be long gone by then. “The faster we sell out, the better. We made our last order of product in January, so now is the time to get your deals.” Kitchen Karousel is open 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.
Yvonne Klein January 18, 1921 - April 14, 2015 Yvonne (Bonnie) Monica Reader Klein, 94, went to be with her Lord on April 14, 2015 after a full and bountiful life. Bonnie was born to Peter J Reader and Christine Bertha Shockman, on January 18, 1921 in Bismark, North Dakota. She graduated from Berlin High School in 1938. She met Jake Klein when they both worked at Puget Sound Naval shipyard as sheet metal workers. Bonnie married Jacob Lawrence Earl Klein, son of George Klein and Martha Bernadine Hedberg, on 20 Jun 1944 in Queen of Angels, Port Angeles, WA. After being married they lived in Port Angeles, Bremerton, Poulsbo, Suquamish. Bonnie moved back to Poulsbo in 2000. Jacob was born on 28 Nov 1917 in Pierre, SD. He died on 29 Feb 1964 in Suquamish, Kitsap County, WA Bonnie and Jake had nine children: Sandra Dianne (Steve) Smith, James Daniel (Sandy) Klein, Christine Yvonne Parks, Joanne Marie Klein, Nancy Martha (Lane) Guin, Patrick Joseph (Marnie) Klein, Rebecca Lynn (Frank) Salazar, Frances Elizabeth (Pete) Mckenzie and John Lawrence Klein Bonnie, number eleven of sixteen children, was preceded in passing by 10 older siblings: Irene, Dorothy, Myrle, Marjorie, Marie, Peter, Paul, Donald, Caroline and Collette. She is survived by her five younger siblings, Mary, Patricia, Annabelle (Anne) Charles (Chad) and Donna Mae. Bonnie was a member of St. Olaf’s Catholic Church as well as: St. Catherine Society, Red Hat Club, Kingston Senior Center and Eagles. She also enjoyed an occasional game of golf and RV’ing in her quieter years. Bonnie’s favorite activities were gardening, making braided rugs and assembling jigsaw puzzles. She always had something growing in her garden or a warm place in her house. Her favorite flowers were rhododendrons, begonias, dahlias and fushias. Her rugs were almost famous in that they are spread all over Washington, Oregon, Alaska and Colorado, but mostly to relatives. She was also a master dill pickle canner and jam maker. Her real love and devotion was to her family. Bonnie not only had nine children, she had 25 Grandchildren and 38 great grandchildren. There was never anything more important than her family and nothing that could stand in her way of ensuring they all had great advice. A memorial service is scheduled at St Olaf’s Church on April 27 at 11:00 a.m., 18943 Caldert Ave, Poulsbo, WA. Service arrangements are being handled by Cook Family Funeral Home, 163 Wyatt Way, Bainbridge Island, WA 98130, phone 206-842-2692 Www.cookfamilyfuneralhome.com (Please go to the site above and sign the Guestbook for Yvonne Monica Klein In lieu of flowers you may consider a donation to St Jude’s Children Hospital or a charity of your choice.

Volunteering is a healthy choice in A retirement
BY REBECCA PIRTLE Special to Kitsap Week
fter the icing on the retirement cake is all eaten, you may feel the need to add value and service back into your life to lighten the time on your hands, stay physically and mentally active and pass
on your wisdom to those who’d welcome it. Volunteering in the new millennium has richness and variety that enlivens retirees, offering them the opportunity to socialize while giving back, and learn about their community and environment while broadening horizons they thought stopped
growing decades ago. Besides bringing professional skills to grass-roots efforts or a seasoned perspective to new initiatives, volunteering is a healthy choice in retirement — and one that helps Kitsap County focus clearly on its vision: to be known for its natural beauty, safe and healthy communities,
educational resources, high-quality government, dynamic economy and community spirit. In 2014, 3,400 citizens volunteered in Kitsap County departments, contributing nearly 165,000 hours. That’s an added value to county services of almost $4.4 million and contributes to the cost effectiveness of government operations while improving the quality of life here. Following is a brief listing of some of the current opportunities available. Many more can be found on the Kitsap County website at www.kitsapgov. com/volunteer. For help in paring down a good fit for your lifestyle, contact Kitsap County Volunteer Services directly at 360337-4650 or rpirtle@co.kit sap.wa.us. ■ Citizens On Patrol (COPS): Working See VOLUNTEER, Page 2

Continued from page 1 with the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office, volunteers are offered training that readies them to educate and interact with the public and serve as the eyes and ears of law enforcement. They assist with traffic control, handicap parking enforcement, vacation checks, abandoned vehicles and neighborhood watch programs. ■ Veterans’ Treatment Court Mentors: This new program matches veterans with other veterans who are in recovery from substance abuse and avoiding
Friday, April 24, 2015 jail by participating in an alternative to incarceration. Veterans with honorable discharges serve as mentors to help program participants stay on track and make positive changes in their lives. ■ Juvenile Department: Volunteers speak up for abused and neglected children within the court system, serve on citizen advisory boards, work as mentors, assist probation officers, help troubled youth find alternatives to court hearings and more. ■ Long-Term Care Ombudsmen: Volunteers serve as advocates for residents of nursing homes,
assisted-living facilities and adult family homes to ensure a high quality of care and respect. Ombudsmen regularly visit facilities, investigating and resolving concerns of residents by working with families and facility staff. ■ State Health Insurance Benefits Advisers: Volunteers are trained through the Washington state Office of the Insurance Commissioner to educate, assist and advocate for consumers about their rights and options with health care benefits and insurance so they can make informed decisions and navigate new regulations. ■ Naturalists and Park Stewards: The thousands of acres of Kitsap County parkland — and the forests, shorelines, streams and user groups that inhabit them — rely on volunteers to maintain and improve amenities. Volunteers are welcome to drop in for one-day work parties, join in longer-term planning and projects or enroll in classes to get educated and then serve as citizen scientists.

TSUNAMI SALE In August the Lemon Creek Glacier breathes turpitude and silt. It drips, abacus of present worth, counting days I loved the potato-faced fisherman whose hands held me like a net, who sailed to Dutch Harbor and set his anchor there. I heard he married Arbutus, a woman who, men say, eats salmon hearts to flush her breast with fire. I suppose the clutter comes with the house, doublewide tabernacle I am never going to sell. The tide passes through. I hear it come — igneous shift, sovereign rumble of another quake, and plant my legs as though I am at sea.

Maryhill Winery sits atop basalt cliffs overlooking the Columbia River. Andy Perdue / Great Northwest Wine
Maryhill Winery rises to top in Pacific Northwest NW WINES W hen Maryhill Winery opened 14 years ago, the Washington wine industry was much different. Maryhill was one of the first 125 wineries open in the state when owners Craig and Vicki Leuthold launched their winery near the remote community of Goldendale. Today, there are more than 800. The Leutholds, while maintaining their Spokane home, opened Maryhill by offering just a few hundred cases of wine with hopes of attracting visitors from Portland, Seattle, Spokane and Boise. Today, Maryhill is one of Washington’s largest wineries, producing about 100,000 cases annually and providing for more than 70,000 visitors. For these and many other good reasons, Maryhill Winery is being honored as Wine Press Northwest magazine’s 2015 Pacific Northwest Winery of the Year. Richard Batchelor is Maryhill’s fourth winemaker, having arrived in 2009 and helping the winery grow in quality and quantity. This year, he expects to bottle as many as 60 different wines. Many of these are available only to Maryhill’s wine club members and those who come to the winery and visit the Leutholds’ special reserve tasting room — the only place where Maryhill’s Vineyard Series wines are poured.
By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
The Leutholds, with a residence above the winery, have built something stunning on basalt cliffs above the Columbia River. Their tasting room looks out over the eastern Columbia Gorge, with Mount Hood rising in the distance. Adjacent to the winery is Maryhill’s 4,000-seat amphitheater, where top-name acts come to perform at summer concerts. (This year, there is no concert series because of highway improvements being made near Maryhill.) Nearby is the famous and eclectic Maryhill Museum of Art, as well as the Stonehenge replica that serves as a World War I memorial to soldiers
from Klickitat County (it was the first World War I memorial in the United States). Perhaps the biggest success of one of the Northwest’s most accomplished wine producers is the Winemaker’s Red, a $12 red blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Franc that makes up about half of Maryhill’s production. And it isn’t just an inexpensive wine. Two years ago, it won best of class at the prestigious 6 Nations Wine Challenge in Australia. Here are four Maryhill wines we’ve tasted recently. Look for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the winery directly. ■ Maryhill Winery 2012 Proprietor’s Reserve Syrah, See WINES, Page 8

Gluten-free artisan bread in five minutes a day L
et me just start off by saying I am one happy Gluten-Free Foodie! My wish came true this year when Zoë François and Jeff Hertzberg, M.D. created their fifth and newest book: “Gluten-Free Artisan Bread In Five Minutes A Day.” The entire book is gluten-free with 90 new, easy and scrumptious recipes, all made with gluten-free flours. It is no surprise that I love this cookbook because it includes everything I ever dreamed about enjoying again and more. The recipes include Peasant Loaves, Flatbreads, Pizzas, Enriched Gluten-Free
GLUTEN FREE FOODIES By LISA GARZA Breads, and Pastries. It is so easy to follow the recipes once you mix the Master Mix — the possibilities are endless. The hardest part for me was choosing which recipe I wanted to make: soft pretzels, bialys, beignets, cinnamon rolls, naan, pita — oh my! Which one?! I chose an old favorite that I haven’t had in years, gluten-free English muffins. When I was a kid, we used to toast our English muffins in place of buns for our hamburgers. We would

Wines
Continued from page 7 Columbia Valley, $25: Winemaker Richard Batchelor’s 2012 wines are stunning, as this Syrah reveals. It opens with aromas of chocolate-covered blueberry, black licorice, vanilla extract and rose hips. On the palate, it is mouth-filling yet balanced, thanks to flavors of blueberry and black licorice backed by fine-grained tannins. This won a gold medal at the Great Northwest Wine Competition in March.
a nice crispy helping of plain, old-fashioned, lightly salted potato chips. Mmm … I can’t wait! “Gluten-Free Artisan Bread in Five Minutes A Day” recipes are so easy and I have to say that it was love at first bite. I must make one little confession: when the first English muffin was done, I was beyond excited to smother it with butter and raspberry jam that I did not stop to think, “Take a picture!” So sorry, but you will just have to get this new cookbook and make them for yourself, friends and family. I highly recommend giving the gift of “Gluten-
Free Artisan Bread In Five Minutes A Day.” I suggest an add-on gift certificate to your local kitchen or restaurant supply shop for the measuring bin for the dough to rise in, and maybe a special silicone spoon/spatula or a large cooling rack. Maybe a gift certificate for Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free products. This book is perfect for the beginner to gluten-free baking because it includes information about gluten-free flours, techniques and simply detailed instructions for the recipes. It really is easy to make gluten-free treats everyday, thanks to Zoë and Jeff.
Excuse me while I dash off to a special luncheon; my deliciousness awaits at home in front of the fireplace. Salud! Lisa — A special thanks to Zoë François, Jeff Hertzberg MD and Thomas Dunne Books for sending me a copy of “Gluten-Free Artisan Bread In Five Minutes A Day” cookbook to review. My thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not influenced by the gift. I have been a big fan of theirs since their first book and plan to continue as they create more delectable gluten-free recipes.

This won a gold medal at the Great Northwest Wine Competition in March. (14.9 percent alcohol.) ■ Maryhill Winery
2013 Winemaker’s White, Columbia Valley, $12: This is a delicious blend of Pinot Gris, Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc that opens with clean, bright and straight-forward aromas with nice notes of pear and Golden Delicious apple with touches of tangerine, butter and lemon oil.

cocoa powder along with blackberry, dark raspberry and crushed herbs.

aroundkitsap BAINBRIDGE ISLAND REVIEW Bainbridge teachers make plans to join statewide strike: Bainbridge teachers may join other educators from across the state in a one-day walkout to protest the Legislature’s inadequate funding of public schools. David Layton, a language arts/American studies teacher at Bainbridge High and the president of the Bainbridge Island Education Association, the union that represents teachers in the Bainbridge school district, said April 22 that the union has set a vote on the oneday strike for April 27. If the walkout is authorized by the union’s membership, Bainbridge teachers will participate in a one-day work stoppage on May 1. The single-day strike is not directed at the Bainbridge school district or local officials, Layton said. “The first thing that we clearly want to say is, obviously, none of this is directed
at our local community,” he said. “We’re blessed to have lived here, and how much they have always put kids first.” Teachers plan to minimize any disruption by returning to school immediately after the walkout. The state has admitted in court filings that it has underfunded basic education, Layton said, and should be spending nearly $3,000 more per child this year. For Bainbridge, that means “$9 million for this district alone,” he said. “Can you imagine what we could do with class sizes, program development and professional development if we had full funding?” Layton asked. “It would be such a different experience for kids and teachers.” — BainbridgeReview.com

Friday, April 24, 2015 afternoon of April 10. He left having had his wallet stolen by a man on what police believe was a meth-fueled rampage. Bremerton Police arrested Steven Myers, 34, after he reportedly entered Bank of America “speaking gibberish” and then began punching computers and attacking customers. On April 13, Myers was charged with possession of meth and second degree malicious mischief. Bail was set at $50,000. Martin, the public works director for the City of Bremerton, was one of the customers attacked by Myers. “I think the reason he got interested in me was because I mouthed to one of the tellers ‘call 911,’ ” Martin said. “The kid (Myers) came over to me and darn if he didn’t punch me in the shoulder.” Myers chased Martin around an island counter, but then lost interest and went after another customer, Martin said. That customer tripped and fell and Myers punched him in the head, Martin said. Myers again chased Martin, eventually kicking
him in the “backside,” striking Martin’s wallet and knocking it onto the floor. Myers took the wallet and exited the building. Martin’s wallet was later returned to him. “I think that everybody did the right thing in trying to get away from him,” Martin said. “I’m very glad everyone was OK.” — BremertonPatriot.com
CENTRAL KITSAP REPORTER Man airlifted after crashing car into tree: A Bremerton man was airlifted
to Harborview Medical Center after he crashed his car into a tree in a parking lot April 18. According to the Washington State Patrol, Jonathan L. Baker, 21, of Bremerton, was in a white 2008 Chevrolet Impala that was stopped in the right lane of travel of northbound State Route 303 south of NE Furneys Lane. A passerby concerned about Baker’s welfare approached his vehicle and tapped on the driver side window. Baker appeared to regain consciousness, the WSP report stated, and pressed

down on the gas pedal. The vehicle then jumped the curb and went over a sidewalk and a small uphill embankment. The vehicle then struck a tree and came to rest in the Fred Meyer parking lot. The vehicle was totaled. Baker was wearing a seatbelt. It is not known if drugs or alcohol were a factor. The cause of the crash is under investigation. — CentralKitsapReporter. com See AROUND, Page 16

NORTH KITSAP HERALD Q&A with Port Gamble S’Klallam Police Chief Samuel White: Samuel White, a member of the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe, joined the Port Gamble S’Klallam Police Department as chief of police on Oct. 22. He’s spent 12 years in law enforcement, including serving as police chief for
Friday, April 24, 2015 the Makah Nation in Neah Bay. He was director of the Makah Nation’s Public Safety Department and spent almost four years there. Most recently, he spent about four years with the Suquamish Police Department as a sergeant. Recently, White talked to the North Kitsap Herald about his new job and his goals for the department. “First goal I have to establish is, I’ve got to get up to full staff, have every officer trained through the basic police academy, which
primarily focuses on federal law; through the equivalency academy, which primarily focuses on state laws; and Washington State Tribal Officer certification. With that, it’s one of the bigger steps toward cross commission and mutual aid ... “Second phase is to get all the equipment replaced. Hopefully, if we get the 2015 Cops Grant, life will be great. If we get it, it re-outfits officers head to toe — new equipment, new vehicles. It would make the world a much easier place ...

Community of Friends My mother came from a very large close-knit family.
Every summer she organized our family reunion consisting of her sisters, brothers, and their children. She would cook wonderful meals and the kitchen would fill the house with wonderful aromas. Dad would keep everyone entertained and keep the family all laughing. Mom no longer hosts the reunions since Dad had passed away. Her siblings now take turns having those family gatherings and picks mom up to take her to them. At the last gathering she looked extremely tired. I noticed that her frame was much smaller and was a bit more withdrawn. After speaking with the uncles and aunts we thought it would be best if we found her a new home where others could keep her company and occupied throughout the days. Somewhere that would take care of her the same way she had taken care of us all those years. We did not just want anyplace to be her home but a place where she had activities, warmth, care and most importantly love. We decided that Liberty Shores & Harbor House in Poulsbo would be the new home that would be perfect for mom. Liberty Shores & Harbor House is a trusted and deficiency free senior care provider specializing in assisted living and memory care. They offer the finest care, given by the most committed staff.

Conference includes workshops to educate seniors Topics: Emergency management, finances, medication By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
P
articipants in this year’s Older Americans Conference will be able to learn about a number of topics from the conference speakers. If emergency preparedness is a concern for you, listen to Susan May and Peter Apgar of the Kitsap County Department of Emergency Management. They’ll talk about the biggest dangers in our area. “Everybody knows about earthquakes,” May said. “And if they’re prepared for that, then they’ll have enough rations handy to make it through a couple of hours without power, or the typical two-day snow storm.” What’s needed for an earthquake kit will be discussed, including food and water for five to seven days, emergency sources of light, first aid needs and other things. “Many people who have been in the area for a while are prepared because they’ve been through at least one earthquake,” she said. “They know the hazards of living in the Pacific Northwest. But if you’re new to the area, you may not have a good feel for what’s needed.” Everything for an emergency kit, for a short power outage to a devastating earthquake, will be discussed. “What we really try to stress is don’t ever have an empty refrigerator or cupboard,” she said. “There are things that
you can always have around that will be needed when the power goes out.” Back-up food and water supplies are important, as is a source of light so you can sit and read your book until the lights come back on. It’s all about being as comfortable and safe as possible. May has been with the county emergency management department for eight years and has a background in health and emergency preparedness. She is the department’s public educator and public information officer. Apgar is a community educator with the Department of Emergency Management. He began volunteer work with KCDEM in 1993 as a ham radio operator supporting the county’s Alternate Communication System with emergency communications in Kitsap hospitals. In 2001, he retired from Lockheed Martin after working as an electrical engineer for 31 years on submarine navigation systems. In 2003, KCDEM invited him to attend a FEMA-sponsored Community Emergency Response Team training at Emmitsburg, Maryland. Shortly after that training, he helped compose a new curriculum for the county’s Kitsap Practices Responsible Emergency Preparedness program that covers personal and family emergency preparedness with an introduction to neighborhood preparedness. More recently, the program was expanded to include Map Your Neighborhood sessions that organize neighbors to help each other in times of disaster. Apgar has conducted numerous training sessions with community groups of
all types throughout the county. Each session is free and is designed for the group being addressed. For information or to schedule a presentation session, call 360-307-5870 or go to www.kitsapdem.org. In addition to what supplies to have on hand, the talk will cover why communication sources fail during emergencies and what can be done and why it’s important to keep copies of important papers where they can be accessed. “Even such things as your homeowners insurance policy and all the passwords to various accounts,” May said. “These are typically things that you’ll need right away once the threat has passed and you’re trying to get your life back in order.” Other speakers include Todd Tidball, who will speak about “Navigating the Next Adventure: Managing Your Money in Retirement.” He is with Edward Jones Financial in Poulsbo and an expert in helping seniors with planning for their financial future. Tidball is active in Poulsbo and is a past chairman of the Poulsbo Rotary Foundation auction. He also is active in the Poulsbo Historical Society and volunteered with its fundraising auction. He has a bachelor’s degree in business administration and management from Greenville College. Tidball qualified for the firm’s 2013 Financial Advisor Leaders Conference that recognizes financial advisers who are among the leaders in the financialservices firm. He was one of 793 financial advisers who qualified from the firm’s nearly 12,000 financial advisers. Speaker Nicholas Wyatt will talk about medication management. According to Wyatt, medication-relat-
ed problems are common, costly, and often preventable in older adults. Studies estimate that approximately 25 percent of medication-related problems in the primary care setting are preventable. Most of these medication-related problems occur during the medication ordering and monitoring stages of patient care, he said. In 2001, the total estimated cost nationally, related to potentially inappropriate medications, was $7.2 billion. Wyatt’s presentation will address how patients of all ages can reduce their risk of experiencing medication-related problems. “Patients will gain a better understanding of what medication therapy management is and how this simple process can reduce their risk of medication related problems,” he said. “We will also discuss specific medications that have been identified as being potentially inappropriate and what tools can be used to evaluate one’s risk of experiencing medication-related problems.” So, are you at risk for medicationrelated problems? You may be at more risk than you realize. Listen in to find out. Wyatt obtained his doctor of pharmacy degree at the University of Washington School of Pharmacy in 2008 and currently works as the clinical pharmacy manager at Harrison Medical Center. Another speaker, Richard Tizzano, will host a workshop on “Getting Your Legal Affairs in Order,” and how to plan for the economics of nursing care and assisted living. Turn to page 20 to find out more about Tizzano. See conference schedule on page 23.

Aging Council is helping seniors get their needs met By LESLIE KELLY

T
hey serve as advisers. But they’ve all encountered their own unique issues navigating the needs of seniors. They are the Advisory Council to the Kitsap County Division of Aging and Long Term Care, the local Area Agency on Aging. Among them is Al Pinkham, the current chairman of the council. Pinkham spent 24 years in the Navy and following that served three terms on the board of the Peninsula Community Health Services. He then decided to join the advisory council for the area agency on aging. As chairman, he said he is dedicated to hearing the concerns of seniors and caregivers to seniors and the aging population and working to meet those needs. “When I finished my terms on the community health board, I said ‘What else can I do to help the senior population?’ ” he said. “Then I found this group.” After two years on the council, he’s seen some things that Kitsap County is doing well to serve its senior population. And he’s seen things that need work. “We have a great amount of services available here,” he said. “But we need to get that message out to more people.” That’s why he’s planning on taking the council meetings on the road to senior centers throughout the county, in order to hear first-hand what problems seniors are having, whether it be with accessing health care, transportation, or getting services in their homes. “Transportation is a big issue,” he said. “What good is having places where seniors can get the care they need if they physically can’t get there?”
Another big issue for seniors is that many of them don’t want to ask for help. “There’s a strong resistance to asking for help,” he said. “Some seniors think of it as welfare. But the fact is that the programs are being paid for with tax dollars and these seniors have worked all their lives and paid into taxes for years and years. Just like with Medicare and Social Security, they’ve earned the help.” Council member Mari Van Court, who joined the council in January, found her way to the council after being the designated caregiver for three relatives. “As a family nursing practitioner, I thought I knew what I was doing,” she said. “But I was completely blindsided by all that was involved.” The combination of legal paperwork, the enormity of the finances and navigating the health care system was overwhelming to her. And it consumed her 24-7. So she sought out a support network for caregivers and found that with the county’s Division of Aging Caregivers Support Program. “They saved my life,” she said. “Now I want to get the message out to other caregivers.” Van Court sees a need for better transitions from hospital to nursing care and back home for seniors. She’s hoping to be able to work on making that happen. She thinks the county makes good support services available to caregivers and wants caregivers to know what’s available to them when they need help. Council member Michaelene Manion had experience working with the disability network, having had a disabled son. She also helped her mother through a number of strokes and dementia in the 1990s. “I saw so many people who needed

help that they weren’t getting,” she said. “I decided I wanted to fight for those who don’t have a voice.” Manion has been on the council since 2009. She points to things such as dental care and vision care that need addressing. She is working along with the other council members to gather information and make sure “Olympia and the others with the power to fund programs” know what’s lacking. Kitsap County is doing many things right, such a planning for the future, council members said. Statistically, by 2020, one in four residents will be over the age of 60. “The county is planning well and seeking our advice on long range issues for the aging population,” said Van Court. Pinkham said as far as funding goes, aging issues may not be the priority now, but both the state and the U.S. Congress are paying attention. “They know what’s coming (with an aging population),” he said. “They understand the costs of health care at the end of life and they’re looking for ways to reduce those costs. It’s a hard discussion, but it has to happen.” Such things are Advance Health Care Directives help, he added. Another concern of the council is loneliness and isolation among the aging population. Reaching out to seniors is crucial. “So many elderly are lonely and they won’t ask for help,” Pinkham said. “But with the work of the agency and the council, we’re improving that. We’re trying to get the word out that help is available. There’s information out there and problems can be solved.” One way, he said, is the Senior Information & Assistance line, 360 3375700, or the 2-1-1 telephone resource number. Another is to go to your local senior center. Not only are there activities there to keep seniors from being lonely, but there are resources to help with a variety of issues as well.

There’s plenty of new offerings at Liberty Shores From new furnishings and carpet, to new programs for residents, Liberty Shores is home away from home By LESLIE KELLY

hat’s on your play list? Don’t be surprised if that’s the question you’re asked when you visit Liberty Shores Senior Living and Harbor House Memory Care Community in Poulsbo. That’s because the staff at the community has just begun an innovative new music program for residents who have Alzheimer’s or memory issues. Based on a recent national Internet video called “Alive Inside,” Liberty Shores social worker Tarah Threde gained permission to begin a pilot program of personalized music for some residents. “It’s aimed at the residents who don’t talk or engage,” Threde said. “We meet with their family members and get an idea of the kinds of music they once enjoyed. Then we load it on an iPod and using earphones, we let the resident listen to their personalized music.” With one resident who is in her 80s and has severe Alzheimer’s, the results were immediate, she said. “She’s someone who rarely opened her eyes or looked up,” Threde said. “She never smiled. But once she heard the classical music that her husband brought in for us to play, she lifted her head. And then she began to smile.” The music enters the brain through a portion of the brain that is the last to be affected by dementia, Threde said. “There’s a science behind it,” she said. Threde and others at Liberty Shores are now working to expand the program to other residents -- those with memory loss and anyone else who wants to participate. They plan to work with resident’s families and build up their music library. “It takes some time, because we have to meet with families to get a resident’s play list, then download or record it on an iPod, and then get ear-
Liberty Shores Senior Living and Harbor House Memory Care Community in Poulsbo has many services for seniors who are looking for a place to call home. Leslie Kelly photo phones,” she said. Kay Pursey, director of marketing for Liberty Shores, said the husband of the Alzheimer’s resident was so thrilled to see his wife react to the music. “He hadn’t been able to reach her very often,” Pursey said. “It meant so much to him. “Music sooths the soul.” Liberty Shores and Harbor House opened in 1996 due to a need for elder care residential homes in the Poulsbo area. It is licensed for 112 beds and has 58 apartments and 46 units for memory care. Liberty Shores features private apartments ranging from studios to two bedrooms. Residents are invited to furnish their places with their own belongings and treasures. There is 24-hour on-site licensed nursing care to provide a wide range of medical care services. Residents receive three daily meals served restaurant-style including a variety of regular and specialized diets.

There’s transportation for shopping, scheduled medical appointments and recreational outings. Full-time social workers are on staff to provide emotional and interpersonal support to residents, and to keep families apprised of the residents’ needs.
Two activity professionals coordinate an array of recreational programs that are offered every day. The community has maid and laundry services and various recreation and exercise areas. If a resident is in the mood for a make-over, there are on-site beauty salon and manicure services. A 24-hour snack bar is stocked with nutritious snacks and drinks for selfservice access. And a respite stay option is available in a furnished apartment for short-term residency. At Liberty Shores, there is a monthto-month rental agreement with no buy in requirements. The center is locally owned and managed by Northwest Care. Specialized care options include: • Vacation coverage: Vacation stays can range from a number of days to a few weeks offering care and supervision while the caregiver is away on a business trip or vacation. • Hospital discharge: Offering posthospitalization stay in a furnished apartment with all the assisted living services needed as part of a successful transition from hospital to home. • Trial stay: Use a short term guest stay to give the community a testdrive. • Hospice care: Liberty Shores fully embraces the Hospice concept of dignity and comfort offering extensive assisted living support services under cooperation with a local Hospice pro-
vider. Harbor House Memory Care is located adjacent to Liberty Shores and offers comfortable private and semiprivate rooms which are furnished or can be furnished with residents’ personal belongings. Harbor House has three floors and offers security in housing and health care to aid in residents’ comfort and ensure their health and safety. It is designed to maintain the resident’s independence and focuses on comfort and familiarity. Residents are encouraged to bring along family photos and there is a common area with “memory stations” that encourage individual and group activities. Renovations are underway to include a community room which will include a coffee bistro and large-screen TV. Activities include board games, Bible studies, exercise classes and day trips and outings. Outside, there is a courtyard that features gardens where residents can grown their own flowers and vegetables. Harbor House Alzheimer’s Community also offers daycare and respite care for all stages of dementia patients. And as in years past, the Liberty Shores and Harbor House received a Superior State Survey Inspection in 2014, something it has garnered for the past 13 years. For that, a team of state licensers spend several days checking compliance in all aspects of medical care, emotional well-being, psychological support, activities, dining services, diets, laundry services, physicians’ orders, personnel files, staff training and more. “We are proud of our team for receiving another perfect survey,” said Pursey. Pursey and others at Liberty Shores and Harbor House invite anyone to come out and tour the center. There’s even a complimentary lunch if you time your visit right. Liberty Shores is located at 19360 Viking Ave. NW, Poulsbo. Call 360-7795533 for more information. Find out more at www.libertyshores.com.

Kitsap Computing Seniors: Helping each other learn more By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
I
f it hadn’t been for that garage sale back in 2008, Betty Sarachene might never have met Karen and Warren Beauchene. It was there that the three got started talking computers. And now, seven years later, Betty and Karen are leading the Kitsap Computing Seniors. “They noticed the empty computer box my iMac came in that was in my garage,” said Sarachene. “We just got to talking and pretty soon they’re telling me about this computer group for seniors.” The group, Kitsap Computing Seniors, has been around for more than 20 years. It was started by Silverdale resident Rampton Harvey, who wrote a letter to the editor asking if there were other seniors who wanted to learn about computers. After receiving 27 responses, he formed the group. Today, the group has more than 240 members who range in age
from 35 to in their 80s. The average age is 65 to 70. “Anyone is welcome,” Sarachene said. “But most of our members are retired and have time on their hands.” The group has a monthly membership meeting where they have a speaker and a potluck afterward. About 100 members show up for that. Speakers include experts on doing taxes online, finding your newspaper online, or librarians from the Kitsap Regional Library who talk about what library resources are online. The group also offers classes in computers, computer labs, special interest groups such as the Mac group, on-call computer technicians to help members with issues that come up, and the New Horizons group which takes in used computers and revamps them for use by members or students in the area that are in need of a computer. Both desktop computers and laptops are restored.
Computer classes are offered at the Silverdale Goodwill store and at Mountain View Middle School in Bremerton. Sessions for practicing and using computers are offered at Mountain View as well as at the Sylvan Way Branch of the KRL in east Bremerton and at Goodwill. Monthly general membership meetings are on the third Monday of each month at 10 a.m. at the Silverdale Community Center, 9729 Silverdale Way, although they are looking for a new location due to the pending closure of the community center. Dues are only $20 a year and with that comes a monthly newsletter and the ability to use oncall computer help when needed. Karen and Betty say many of the folks who join the group just want to be able to email their grandchildren and use Facebook. “Some of them also Skype with their family who live away,” Sarachene said. “They just want to keep up with what’s out there in the computer world.”
Both Betty and Karen are pretty hip when it comes to computers and do their bill paying online, as well as shopping and researching genealogy. “I take a lot of photographs, so I use Photoshop a lot,” Betty said. “And I email a lot and play games on the computer,” Karen added. They both have iPads and use those for a game called “Words with Friends” which is a competitive Scrabble game where they play each other, “with spellcheck,” Betty added. There’s really only one thing that they haven’t updated, they both said. “That’s my flip phone,” Betty said. “I love it. It makes calls and takes calls. And texts. That’s all I need.” Karen and her husband have been members of Computing Seniors since 2005. They found the group at the Sylvan Way branch library.
“We just happened to be at the library and stumbled on to them,” she said. “We went to the Mac meeting and the rest is history.” The Beauchenes moved to Poulsbo from California after retirement. She was a librarian and he was a mechanical supervisor for United Airlines. They have a daughter in Seattle. Sarachene, too, landed in Poulsbo after retiring. Computing Seniors’ members are great at helping each other with new technology, they say. And members love to socialize. “That’s a part of it, too,” Beauchene said. “We have some great potlucks.” The nonprofit group relies on membership dues and donations to fund their work. Anyone interested in joining should go to www. KitsapComputingSeniors.org to download an application, or write to P.O. Box 3166, Silverdale, WA 98383.

AAA course teaches driving like a pro, even after 55 By LESLIE KELLY
I
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
t’s that age-old argument — when should older drivers quit driving? At what age is it not “safe” to continue behind the wheel?
Those questions are ones that Mary and Danny Lilleness have heard many times. As operators of AAA Driving Improvement Program, the Lillenesses know the answers aren’t simple. “There’s no set rule,” Mary Lilleness said. “It all depends on the driver. We’ve got a gentleman over on Mercer Island who’s 106 and still driving. He does I-5 and 405 and I-90 without any problems.” In 1986, the Washington State Legislature passed a law authorizing insurance companies to give discounts to drivers age 55 and over if they successfully completed a safe driving course. That’s when the Lillenesses began teaching the class for the AAA of Washington. In any given year, they teach 50 classes throughout western Washington with anywhere from 25 to 65 seniors attending each class. Topics in the class include how to use your eyes to gather information while driv-
ing; what the environment, traffic situations and other drivers are telling you; making decisions about the speed you should travel; maintaining safe distance around your vehicle; what can come up and how to deal with emergencies; keeping your vehicle in good operating condition; making responsible decisions about drinking and driving; and emotions, preventing road rage, fatigue and drowsy driving, distractions, the aging process and effects of medications. The one-day course costs $18 for AAA members and $25 for non-members. Additionally, Danny will give private driving instructions behind-the-wheel for seniors at $250 and up for 60 to 90 minutes. Completion of the one day course gives the senior a letter to present to his or her insurance company for discounted premiums. Seniors also can get a letter to verify their ability to drive to give to a requesting physician or family member. Danny has been a professional driving instructor in Washington since 1977, teaching both teens and adults. He’s taught for AAA since 1987. He’s also conducted safedriving programs for the U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Agriculture,
Puget Sound Energy, Weyerhaeuser, Seattle University staff and a number of hospitals in King County. “By the time lunch rolls around, we’re all friends,” Danny said of the people who take his class. “My goal is to get them to think about their driving while they’re driving.” Older drivers are, for the most part, very good drivers, he said. “Younger drivers always think older drivers drive too slow,” he said. “But that’s not really the case. They’re cautious and they’ve had lots of experience behind the wheel and that makes them better at driving than younger folks.” According to Mary, the classes are fun and sometimes include a lively discussion of how to handle any given situation. “We had a lady wondering about what to do when she’s driving the speed limit in the slow lane and someone is tailgating her,” Lilleness said. “In that case, the tailgater wants you to move lanes because he doesn’t want to move lanes. But actually, the woman who asked the question is in the right and doesn’t need to move.” How to act in these situations and how to avoid road rage is a topic in the class.
Another question often asked is what about driving slow in the fast lane, she said. “Stay to the right, unless you are passing,” she said. “The left lane is not a lane of travel for someone who is driving the speed limit.” Mary said recently she had a call from a woman who had concerns about her aging parents and whether they should still be driving. “She called from out of state,” Mary said. “I sent her the information about the class and told her to have them come.” Additionally, she suggested that the woman’s parents take a behind-the-wheel class from her husband, who could then better assess whether they are still safe drivers. With America aging, Mary said safe driving courses are becoming more popular all the time. “Let’s face it, we’re all getting older,” she said. “It never hurts to have a refresher course. It’s been awhile since high school when we all took driver’s ed.” To find a class, go to www.aaawa.com/ trafficsafety/driverimprovement, or call 206243-3564.

Anderson Denture & Dental marks 20 years of service Having a dental and denture clinic all in one location has been one reason why they’ve seen success in their business By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
I
f it had not of been for Bruce and Wanda Anderson being invited to visit friends in Sequim back in 1995, Anderson Denture & Dental Center might never have come to Poulsbo. “We came out for a visit,” Wanda Anderson said. “We rented a car and drove more than 3,000 miles throughout Washington state. When we drove through Poulsbo, Bruce said ‘We’re home.’ ” Bruce is of Norwegian ancestry. His grandparents immigrated to the U.S. and Bruce says he still remembers his grandmother speaking Norwegian, telling stories of seeing the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The Andersons found Poulsbo to be charming and friendly. On that same trip, they drove past a building that was under construction and stopped to talk to the owner. “Right then, we knew this would be our office,” Wanda said. And today, 20 years later, they are in the same location They are very proud of their dental office and think their “patient centered” orientation has been their success. Having a denturist and a dentist on staff offers quality care and convenience for the denture patients. Wanda’s sincerity was apparent when she said they are careful to discuss the treatment with the patients for both those patients needing general dental services and those needing a partial or denture. “Patient education is imperative,” she said. “We discuss everything with the patient all along the way.” Although the materials for fabricating dentures have changed during the past 20 years, Bruce prides himself on the fact that he still makes every set of dentures with his own hands.
Bruce and Wanda Anderson have been in business at the Anderson Denture & Dental Center in Poulsbo for 20 years. Retirement may be around the corner. Staff photo “I believe in making each individual denture by hand,” he said. “He likes the feel of doing it himself, a denture is his artistic canvass,” Wanda

said. Science in the industry has created better materials to work with,” Bruce said. “The materials have improved greatly allowing the denture or partial denture to look more natural, youthful and alive.” Anderson received his bachelor’s degree from Covenant College, Chattanooga, Tennessee; and earned his denturitry diploma from George Brown College. He studied for his denturitry certification at the University of Florida School of Dentistry, Idaho State University and the American Denturist Academy. Anderson got his interest in dentures from his father who was a “mechanical dentist,” an individual who did general dentistry as well as the laboratory work fabricating appliances. Bruce worked the summers and between his high school and college semesters in his father’s lab learning the process of making dentures. “My dad was a master and the skills he taught me have proved invaluable,” Bruce said. One of the unique things about Anderson Denture & Dental Center is the longevity of its staff. Wanda noted that most staff have been with them 10 years or more. Dr. Martin Messah came to the practice in 2013.
“We’re like family here,” she said. “We really work well together.” Bruce Anderson said he and Dr. Messah work well together because they respect each other. “Our relationship is fantastic and the patient gets the best of both worlds,” Bruce said. They emphasize patient confidence and say they achieve that through educating patients as work progresses on their dental needs. Wanda and Bruce were college sweethearts. “I was from the south and he was from Boston,” Wanda said. “I was a cheerleader and I was cheering ‘Get the Ball ya’ll, Get the Ball.’ Bruce tells the story that he asked his friend, “Who is that and what’s she saying?” He had not heard a southern accent much. Although no firm retirement date has been set, Bruce just celebrated his 73rd birthday. In retirement, he plans to keep up with his hobbies — his 1951 Mexicali Maroon Ford Victoria, one of seven cars he’s rebuilt, and his passion for flintlock black powder rifles. “I’m looking forward to his retirement,” Wanda said. “But if he has his way, he’ll still be here working when he’s 100. He loves work and especially enjoys the stories and adventures told by his older patients.” ABOUT THE STAFF Dr. Messah obtained his DDS at the University of California, San Francisco and completed a one-year internship at Ohio State in oral maxillofacial surgery. He has done missionary work in Haiti with the Christian Medical & Dental Association team. Wanda is the office manager at the center. Minjee Fitzpatrick and Elaine Bowen are dental assistants. Vickie Thacker is the insurance specialist assisting patients. The office is at 19410 8th Ave. NE, Suite 102, Poulsbo, 360-779-1566. Among the work they do as well as full and partial dentures is general dental needs, crowns, restoration, emergency care, denture relines and repairs. They accept most insurance and they have payment plans.

& Long Term Care
We want to share this message about safe Medication Management Elders and Medication
People age 65 and older consume more prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) medicines than any other age group. Older people tend to have more long-term, chronic illnesses – such as arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease – than do younger people. Because they may have a number of diseases or disabilities at the same time, it is common for older people to take many different drugs. This may be riskier for older adults, especially when several medicines are used at one time. Taking different medicines is not always easy to do right. It may be hard to remember what each medicine is for, how you should take it and when you should take it. Working with your pharmacist and healthcare provider in addition to taking charge of your own understanding or ensuring a caregiver assists you as needed can help provide a safe and effective means to ensure compliance with a medicine routine and avoid many of the complications from taking multiple medications. • Develop a medication management form to keep track of both prescription and over the counter (OTC) medicines. Be sure to include the physicians name, dosage and times of day to take it. A copy is also given to the family caregiver. • Check labels and all written information to make sure it is for the correct person and the correct directions. • Check expiration dates and properly dispose of expired medications. • Notify physician immediately if any problems occur.
• Watch for any interaction and notify physician if any occur. • Ensure physicians and your phamacist reviews medication and the medication management form regularly. • Establish reminders to ensure all dosages are taken appropriately and in compliance with physicians’ orders. When patients, caregivers, doctors and pharmacists function as a team, medication-related problems can be avoided, contributing to better outcomes and improved daily functioning. Here are some tips for managing medication use:
Understand the medication
Find out as much as possible about every medication: the name, dosage, frequency and side effects. Understand why it has been prescribed, and ask the doctor to write down instructions for its use.
Follow the directions
Following the directions of the medication is imperative to ensure safety. Read all instructions carefully. Dispense only the recommended dosage at one time and finish the entire prescription if instructed. There may be foods or drinks to avoid while taking the medicine. Or the medicine may have to be taken with food or a whole glass of water.
Have complete medical records
Make sure to provide complete medical records to your loved one’s health care providers. Medical history records should contain surgeries, immunizations, allergies and family health history (i.e. diabetes, colon cancer). Records can be sent by a previous provider if needed.

A gift for your family: defining your end-of-life choices By BETTY HERMAN
Martha & Mary Outreach Coordinator
A
s outreach coordinator for Martha & Mary, I begin most of my talks about end of life decisions by handing out a 9-inch by 12-inch white envelopes to each participant. With a brightly colored marker, I instruct participants to address the envelope with “To:” and “From.” Inside this envelope, they will be placing a great gift. What is this gift? It is directions for decision making on saving your life, or care when life is ending.
you take to the pharmacist, which is signed by the doctor telling the pharmacist that it is OK to dispense a particular medicine. The POLST form tells the EMTs what they can and can’t do if you are unconscious and can’t make decisions for yourself. There are many guides to help direct your thinking about short and long term health care. One tool is the Five Wishes Document. (Five Wishes is a trademark name and program of Aging with Dignity. For more information go to www.agingwithdignity.org or call 850-681-2010.)
It’s a gift because anyone who you’ve selected to be responsible for carrying out your end-of-life decisions needs to have the information that is unique to you so they will represent your wishes. Simply put, you wouldn’t ask anyone to make care decisions without telling them what you want.
Most of the time I find that few people are prepared.
Families who have muddled through, guessed at or argued about care of a loved one will affirm how important it is to have these directions. The person you are asking to make care decision for you is known as a health care agent.
Sometimes people put off writing things down because they know they will most likely want to make changes down the road.
One of the documents your health care agent will want is a a Physician’s Order for Life Sustaining Treatment, or POLST. It is important to have a detailed Health Care Directive. This document outlines choices many people make and allows you to add or delete your individual choices on issues such as the kind of medical treatment you want or don’t want; pain management and possible side effects on mental clarity; how you want people to treat you; and what you want your loved ones to know. The document provides a form for appointing a health care agent, along with a backup person. Once completed, the form must be witnessed by two people. The POLST gives immediate information to the Emergency Medical Technicians when 911 is called. This is a bright green form that is in your home, usually on the refrigerator, that paramedics will refer to until your health care agent arrives or is contacted. The POLST must be discussed with and signed by your physician to be legal. It is just like the prescription
They haven’t had “the conversation” about end of life decisions because either their doctor won’t initiate it, or the kids bring it up and they reject it, or they bring it up and the kids reject it. It’s emotional.
It’s important to remember to update your information with your health care agent and as life circumstances change. Updates can be done at anytime. Making sure you’ve specified what you want is crucial. It can always be changed later if needed. In selecting a health care agent, to whom you will be addressing the envelope, choose someone who will be able to say that it is time to end your life if needed. Choose someone who will be able to handle the family dynamics. That person must be 18 years old or older, who clearly understands your wishes, and who can be assertive, should the need arise. It cannot be your physician or anyone affiliated with a health care facility where you are a patient at the time you sign your advance directive. Other documents that are essential are a financial will that dictates what will happen to your stuff, who will inherit the what portion of your money, what will happen to real property, who gets which pieces of jewelry, etc. It is important that this document be drawn up with the advice of a lawyer and sometimes a financial advisor, too.
There are legal and tax implications to divesting your assets and getting good advice is critical to minimizing the paperwork and potential family conflicts after one dies. A third document you want in the envelope is a list of current accounts and such things as user names and passwords for bank accounts. It is important that this be kept up to date and include the location of documents such as wills and insurance policies. In taking control of your end-of-life decisions, everyone should have a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care, the Physician’s Order for Life Sustaining Treatment, a Health Care Directive, and a financial will that have been reviewed by an attorney, signed, notarized, and are on file with an attorney, with copies in the hands of your health care agent. If your Health Care Agent is different than the executor of your estate, then you may want to keep your financial will separate from the POLST and Living Will.
Copies of Five Wishes are available from most Hospice locations and online. Other resources include “My Personal Planner,” by Margie Jenkins; “You only Die Once,” by Margie Jenkins, and “Grandma’s Yellow Pie Plate” by Marlene S. Sturn, which addresses decisions about who gets what and how to avoid conflict.

The Lyric: It’s hearing’s latest technological marvel By PENINSULA HEARING
A
new year is well under way and with it an exciting adventure for those of us at Peninsula Hearing. We are now offering a new and different concept in hearing care called the Lyric. Lyric has been around for a few years, however Dr. Megan Nightingale at Peninsula Hearing in Poulsbo is the first hearing professional on the peninsula to offer Lyric. The Lyric concept is one similar to extended wear contact lenses for the eye. Lyric is still the only “extended wear” hearing device available. The concept centers on a very small device (about the size of a pinto bean) that is placed deep in the ear canal within about 4 millimeters of the ear drum. The device stays put in the
Megan Nightingale is an expert in hearing and has recently introduced the Lyric concept to what her practice offers to its patients. Contributed photo
canal until the battery dies which can be up to 4 months. The device is then taken out of the ear canal by a trained pro-
fessional and a new one placed back in the canal. The device is designed to be worn 24 hours a day — seven
days a week. While the thought of a traditional hearing aid being worn 24/7 is not very pleasant, Lyric when properly placed in the ear canal can hardly be felt. The mechanics of the Lyric is surrounded by a spongy material that allows moisture to escape and the ear canal to breathe which is very important for ear canal health. The advantage of having a hearing device placed so close to the ear drum is that the sound is very natural because not as much amplification is needed as with a traditional device. Also, by virtue of the placement of Lyric the brain can take advantage of the ear’s natural background noise fighting capabilities. Lyric is very convenient for the user as well. One does not have to change batteries or take the device on and off the ear. The device
can be adjusted for volume and turned into what is called “sleep mode” for nighttime use by using a magnet tool. Lyric is sold on a subscription basis for one, two or three years at a time. The makers of Lyric and Dr. Nightingale do state that Lyric is clearly not for everyone. There are some people who cannot have anything in their ear canal and some whose hearing issues are so great that it is beyond the amplification ability of the device. “For the people who have tried it and liked it however, it is a miracle — they rave about it,” Dr. Nightingale said. If you are interested in learning more, please give us a call for a complimentary evaluation and demonstration. Call 360697-3061 or 800-540-8698 to set an appointment.

With a bit of time and effort, seniors can get fit Fitness trainer says you’re never too old to begin a program to get in shape and add years to your life By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
W
hen Ron Canfield was a boy, he’d be the one organizing relays around the cul de sac where he grew up. In high school, he was an athlete, running track and playing basketball. So it’s no wonder that now, just shy of 59 years old, he’s a personal trainer, working through the YMCA in Bremerton and Silverdale. And one of his specialties is working with anyone age 60 and older, making sure that if they’re starting on a fitness routine, it is something that’s safe for them and matches their skill level. “It’s just very rewarding to see people achieve their fitness goals,” Canfield said. “Just the look on their faces when they complete something that they didn’t think they could do.” For Canfield, fitness was something he just did as part of high school and college athletics. In his early 20s, he kept that up. But then his career got busy. As a nuclear chief testing engineer at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, he worked long hours and in his 30s, he began to notice that he wasn’t feeling very well. “I just knew I wasn’t feeling as good as I could,” he said. “So I decided to get fit.” He’d pack his gym bag in the morning and put it in the car as he headed off to work. Then, when it was quitting time, he’d head to the gym. “I knew if I went home to change clothes, I wouldn’t leave again,” he said. “So I tricked myself into going straight from work to the gym.” And his co-workers knew it too. “I was on call a lot,” he said. “So my co-workers knew that if I didn’t answer a call, I’d get with them when I was done with my workout.” His workout routine included cardio, weights and an abs class. Soon the instructor saw how hard he was working and asked him to substitute teach the class.
Exercise is an important part of overall health and wellness. Contributed photo Once Canfield retired in 2011, he decided to get certified as a fitness instructor and personal trainer. “The certification process meant a lot of studying and testing,” he said. “But as an engineer, I had to re-certify every two years, so I was use to studying.” Today, he trains clients through the YMCA which contracts with Sound Fitness for personal trainers. Each of them are their own independent businesses with their own licenses and fees, but they have access to all the equipment at the YMCA. When working with a client, Canfield does a complete assessment of the client’s personal goals, needs and desires, and identifies any health issues or physical limitations. He then uses that information to develop a training plan specify to that client. If needed, a physician’s clearance is sought. Each program will include upper body work, lower body work and an all-body workout with no weight equipment, but using resistance. The workouts also include warm ups, and stretching. “If someone has been inactive for a long time, there are very simple exercises that can get them on to a path to better health and fitness,” he said. “Walking is a great start.” Other options for beginners, he said, include chair jogging, marching in
place, followed by wall push-ups, and then chair squats. At the next level, the exercises can include jumping jacks, jogging in place, regular pushups, bicep curls using armbands or dumbbells, and then squats and walking lunges. For those who want to try exercising on their own, Canfield suggests the 10-Minute Total Body Breakthrough, by author Sean Foy. “This is a great book that gives options from beginners to advanced, utilizing a 10-minute principle, progressing over time,” he said. It includes four minutes of simple cardio, three minutes of resistance exercise, two minutes of core exercise and one minute of stretching. Working with a personal trainer can be about $60 per session, but as Canfield said, the more sessions you buy upfront, the more the cost goes down. He also offers a partner program where two clients work with him at the same time and share the hourly cost. “The buddy system is great because
the participants keep each other enthused,” he said. “Sometimes if they see their partner doing something, it can motivate them to work toward that goal, too.” And, if clients don’t have a spouse or friend who wants to work out, Canfield can pair clients up. He’s seen clients in their 60s lose up to 40 pounds in six to nine months. “Once they begin to get active, they also begin to look at what they’re eating,” he said. “They want to get healthy. They begin to eat better and move more. And most of them stay active and maintain that weight loss.” Whether working out at the Y, another fitness club, or at home, Canfield encourages seniors to find a form of exercise that they like and that includes cardio and weight-resistance exercises. “It’s all about getting the blood pumping,” he said. “It’s all about feeling better and enjoying life.” To contact him, email rcanfield@ ymcakc.org.

Center offers non-invasive skin cancer treatment A diagnosis of skin cancer no longer means having to have surgery; new radiation techniques are being used locally By PENINSULA CANCER CENTER STAFF
A
s Pacific Northwesterners, we all anticipate the arrival of warmer weather. But with our beloved sunshine comes the damaging effects of UV rays. One in six people will develop skin cancer in their lifetime, with over one million cases annually in the U.S., and the most common cases are non-melanoma skin cancers, basal and squamous cell cancers. With extensive exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays, skin cancer may just be a matter of time for many people. Surgery is the most common treatment for most skin cancers but it often has cosmetic and recovery issues for patients. Recent technological breakthroughs have made low-intensity radiation a compelling alternative to surgery for certain types of skin cancer. In those cases, radiation treatment offers a cure rate of 90-97 percent, which is comparable to surgery, with excellent cosmetic results and without any recovery time. As you might already know, Peninsula Cancer Center in Poulsbo has been providing first-class radiation treatment to our community since 2009. Peninsula Cancer Center is now offering an innovative, noninvasive form of radiation treatment for the most common kinds of skin cancers. This technology uses a miniature x-ray tube that emits very low intensity radiation, penetrating only just below the skin. This treatment is particularly effective for skin cancers that occur on the nose, on the ears, around the eyes, or other areas where surgery often generates cosmetic problems. It is also ideal for people who are not candidates for surgery (e.g., those with diabetes or on blood thinners). The technology used for this treatment is called Xoft and comprehensive information is available at xoftinc.com. During treatment, a small applicator that looks like a wand is placed directly against the skin. Treatment is painless and lasts about three to four minutes. Just eight
The staff at Peninsula Cancer Center in Poulsbo applies a non-invasive technique for treating skin cancer to a patient in the clinic. It includes a low-intensity radiation which is an alternative to surgery. Contributed photo treatments over four weeks are usually adequate for most non-melanoma skin cancers. At the completion of treatment, the treated area of skin is slightly reddened like sunburn and may peel. Other than temporary irritation limited to the area treated, there are no other side effects. Xoft technology is particularly effective for: • Cancers in areas that raise cosmetic concerns, (i.e., face, nose, ears, or eyes). • Patients with recurrent skin cancers that were already treated with surgery. • Those for whom surgery could be risky (e.g., diabetics or on blood-thinners). • People who prefer non-invasive treatments to invasive options like surgery. • Cases where radiation treatment after surgery helps improve the outcomes. The doctors at Peninsula Cancer Center have already treated nearly a hundred patients using the Xoft technology with excellent outcomes. Patients prefer this treatment over surgery for their skin cancer for both the cosmetic result and the fact that it’s painless with minimal recovery. Dr. Berit Madsen, co-founder of Peninsula Cancer Center, has been
very pleased with the feedback she has received from patients. “They often tell me that they wish they had this treatment rather than surgery for their previous skin cancers and will not do surgery again for any future skin cancers,” she said. “The dermatologists in the area who have referred patients to PCC for this treatment are also impressed with the excellent outcomes and the patient satisfaction.” This type of radiation treatment for
non-melanoma skin cancers has been approved by the FDA and is covered by Medicare. Private insurers would require pre-authorization. To learn more about this breakthrough, non-invasive treatment for most common skin cancers, go to www.peninsulacancercenter.com, or make an appointment with Dr. Madsen, Dr. Foxlee or Dr. Hsi at 360697-8000.

He’s able to help you plan for the costs of future care It’s important to talk about the options and the ‘what ifs’ when thinking about your future health care needs By LESLIE KELLY

ichard Tizzano would be the first person to tell you that he stumbled into his work as a life care and estate attorney. In fact, it was when he was trying to negotiate his father’s journey to old age that he became very aware of what all was involved. “When it came time for my father to go to a nursing home in 1998, I realized there was a whole jungle out there that I knew nothing about,” Tizzano said. “And I found it hard to get good information.” Tizzano is an attorney at Sherrard McGonagle Tizzano with offices in Poulsbo and on Bainbridge Island. He is a 1992 graduate of the University of Puget Sound School of Law and practiced law in California before moving to Poulsbo. At that time, his father was in an independent living facility in Tacoma. But when the time came that he couldn’t be on his own, Tizzano began researching places for his father in Poulsbo, and decided on Martha & Mary. “It was great,” he said. “I could walk over on my lunch hour and visit with him.” His father died in 2000. But Tizzano’s dedication to helping others who need to plan for their futures has lived on. He gives two seminars monthly throughout Kitsap County that highlight the need for seniors to plan ahead of time how they will physically and financially care for themselves as they age. “There’s a hurdle people have to get over,” he said. “And that’s coming in the door, whether it’s here for a private conversation or just attending a seminar. It’s natural. Nobody wants to think about getting older. But they need to.” He tells a story about a man who came into his office a few years ago and asked what he should do about long-term care

I could have saved you all the money you’ve spent.” The reality is, he said, in situations like that, the law allows a transfer of assets to a spouse which, in turn, allows the spouse that needs nursing care to have it covered by Medicare or Medicaid, depending on their age. “The rules are set up so that the well spouse doesn’t become destitute,” he said. The most common concern he sees from elder clients is how can they get long term nursing care if needed and still preserve their assets. “Usually there is a way,” he said. “You have to sit down and make plans

She’s definitely a numbers gal ... and wants to help From bank statements to tax forms, Marilee Hageman knows it all — and she can help you get organized By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
T
o Marilee Hageman, there’s nothing like a stack of messy papers, bank statements and receipts. “I’m kind of like a forensic bookkeeper, or a numbers detective,” Hageman said. “I love to reconcile accounts to the penny.” Hageman, who lives in Kingston, recently retired from the world of professional accounting, but has a consulting business of her own where she’ll take on projects for individuals and small businesses. Among her talents are processing cash receipts and accounts payable, preparing monthly financial reports, reconciling bank accounts, preparing payroll, preparing quarterly sales tax returns and B&O taxes, implementing computer accounting programs and updating employee handbooks. She charges a base rate of $40 an hour and is just beginning to build her client list. A Seattle native, she began working as a bookkeeper in San Francisco in the mid-1960s. She didn’t have a college degree, but she’d been a bookkeeper for her father’s company in Seattle. “I was making $290 a month and my good friend, who had moved to San Francisco, told me jobs there were paying $400 a month. So I went.” One of her first jobs was for Walter
After a career in accounting, Marilee Hageman of Kingston has put her knowledge to work and offers her services to seniors who need help with all that paperwork. Leslie Kelly photo Landor, a well-known packing company executive. “He had an old ferry boat he moved from Seattle to Pier 5 in San Francisco,” she said. “That’s where his office was. We just got use to the rocking back and forth with the waves. Sometimes stuff would just slide off our desks. The chairs would float across the room and the file cabinet drawers would swing open.” As she out grew a job, she’d move on to another one that was more challenging. She stayed working in California until 2000 when she moved to New York where she worked for an architectural firm in Manhattan as its bookkeeper. She moved up to a position as a controller, and then went to work for an accounting company where she added human resource skills to her repertoire. She eventually moved back to
California to care for her aging mother and. in 2007, moved back to the Seattle area. “I didn’t want to live in Seattle,” she said. “I thought Port Orchard sounded like a great place. But I’d never been there.” She began looking for house and ended up falling in love with a condo in Kingston. Soon she went back to work as an accountant for William Boeing Jr., who just died in January. She oversaw his personal accounts and his business interests until last October, a job that included a two- to three- hour commute each way. “I’d get on the bus in Kingston at 6 in the morning and go to Bainbridge Island and take the ferry to downtown Seattle to the office,” she said. “And every night I’d do that in reverse.” After four years of that commute, she
decided to stay home and find clients on her own. One of the most challenging jobs she’s had as an independent consultant was helping a friend with years and boxes of business papers. “Her husband was a general contractor,” Hageman said. “He died very suddenly and she was left with 10 years of paperwork and and 10 years of tax returns that hadn’t been filed.” It took Hageman about four months to reconstruct everything. “Bank statements are like the skeleton,” she said. “They’ll tell you what you don’t know. It’s all about tearing it all apart and then putting it back together so it makes sense.” Today, she has just a handful of clients and is building her business slowly. She’s experienced in QuickBooks Pro, Excel and Word. She’ll work on location or out of her home. She hopes to be able to offer services to seniors — volunteering if needed — just to help them out. Many times, seniors aren’t able, due to health or other reasons, to keep up with their mail, their bills and their bank statements, she said. “I want to help them out when I can,” she said. “I love numbers that much.” But she’s not all business. Hageman has many talents. She’s a member of the women’s singing group Lyrica in Port Orchard and also travels with that group. She knits and sews and just recently made smocks for the students at her grandson’s day care. She has a daughter who lives in Massachusetts and a new granddaughter as well. “I’m not all left-brained,” she said. “I have a creative side, too.” To reach Hageman, call 360-509-2306, or email her at gotnumberz@gmail.com.
Have some time? Try volunteering with Foster Grandparents Are you on a limited budget? Are you over 55 years of age? Are you willing to spend 20 hours a week helping children in a classroom? Then you might want to consider joining the Foster Grandparent Program. A Foster Grandparent is someone who serves in a classroom, under the teachers’ guidance, helping needy kids. You
might read, sing, tell stories, do crafts, help socialize or have fun in many other ways. You receive a meal each day, are reimbursed for your transportation, and receive a small stipend for serving. The benefits are threefold: you get to contribute to your community in a meaningful way, the teacher gets some additional help in the classroom and, most
importantly, children get some much needed guidance and positive attention. “Grandma Sue B.” expressed the feelings of many of the Foster Grandparents when she said, “I’d go insane if I had to sit at home all day long. I couldn’t bear to be away from my kids.” Her “kids” are the ones she helps and watches as they grow into young adults.
“Grandma Sandy” helps newborn babies and their parents. Although the monthly stipend does help with expenses, she said she loves what she does so much that she would pay the school for the privilege of coming to work.

He’s putting on the miles, literally, as he keeps fit For Robert Jones, there’s no sitting still when there’s always another bicycle race to ride in or outdoor trail to explore By LESLIE KELLY

N
o one can accuse Robert Jones of standing still. In fact, he hardly ever does. The 65-year-old Indianola resident is up most weekdays by 4:30 a.m. and at his spin class at 5:30 a.m. If he feels like it, he sticks around for another cycling class at 6:15 a.m. Then he lifts weights at the gym. On Saturdays and Sundays he often takes a nice outdoor bike ride of some 25 to 50 miles. “I like to say that you shouldn’t stop moving, or else someone will think you’re dead,” Jones quipped. “For me, being fit and being active is a way to not

“I stayed pretty fit until I was about 50,” he said. “It was when my friends gave me a surprise birthday party when I turned 50 that I looked at myself and thought I was really looking old.” For the previous six years he’d had more of an office job, as director of operations at Heronswood, the nursery that his husband, Dan Hinkley, owned. “I’d been sitting a lot and it showed,” he said. “I’d gained about 10 or 15 pounds and I didn’t like that.” At that time, in 2006, the nursery was sold and Jones found himself without a job. He saw Dan going off to a spin class every morning, but just didn’t think that was for him. “When he said spin, I thought it was something like weaving,” he said. “When he told me what it was, I just thought it was something trendy.” But toward the end of that year, he decided to take better control of his life and tried spinning. “It just stuck,” Jones said. “I found out I loved it.” In the first month, with also watching what he ate, be lost 15 pounds. He began to feel better and fitness has been a part of his day ever since. After about a year of doing the indoor spin classes, he decided to branch out. He bought a bike and began biking with Dan. “I wondered if I could do that,” he
said. “I hadn’t been on a real bike in a long while.” Soon he was riding 20 to 30 miles every weekend. He found his husband’s speed to be too leisurely, so he began riding with other friends. And within several months, he rode the STP — Seattle to Portland race, 200 miles in two days. Two years later, he rode that same race in one day. Because biking requires core body strength, Jones works all muscle groups, especially the upper body, with weights in the gym. He thinks biking and staying fit is what’s kept him from being sick and having to go see the doctor. “Health care costs are so high,” he said. “I like to try to not invoke the health care system at all. When you’re fit you can actually reduce your dependence on health care.” And, for the most part, he’s done that. In all the years he’s been riding, he’s only taken one major spill last December. “I crashed into a biker in front of me,” he said. “ I had sore joints, but nothing broken.” Then, a few weeks ago, he had another minor crash. “Neither of those were a reason not to go out,” he said. “Safety is important. But by being in reasonable shape and by being careful, I’m not concerned about falls.” Falling at an older age means more chance of injury and a longer recovery time, he added, and that’s another reason to build your strength up in the first place. While he likes speed, he doesn’t consider himself anything of a dare devil. And he says others should pick a fitness routine that they like. “If you do something you really like, you’ll keep at it,” he said. “Back between 2006 and 2010, I was running a lot. But I have decided that’s not ideal for me as I grow older.” So, he said, he sticks to cycling. He’s still working part time as an architect and takes on a couple of projects at a time. He and Dan have also opened another nursery named Windcliff. “When I’m not working or riding, I’m taking care of my portion of the nursery and garden,” he said. “I don’t think retirement is a concept I understand.”
