Raytown’s Landmark Drug Store Turns 75
Fans On Their Feet To The Very End Of The Royals Miracle Season
By Charlotte Belger Raytown Historical Society On Halloween, October 31, 2014, Fox’s Drug Store will celebrate its 75th Anniversary at the northeast corner of Raytown Road and 63rd Street. As a family owned and operated business, this milestone is almost unheard of in today’s world. Francis Thomas Fox started his
By George Michaud Royals pitching was superb in Game 7 of The World Series but San Francisco had the star pitcher in Madison Bumgarner who retired all hitters he faced coming into the game in the 5th inning, striking out the side and passed a record held by Curt Schilling for thirteen years of 48 and 2/3 innings without anyone scoring. That wasn’t the end for Bumgarner. He kept up his scoreless pitching throughout the final pitch in the bottom of the 9th when Alex Gordon came real close to tying the game up 3 to 3 but it turned out to be a triple instead. The fans were on their feet looking for another Royals miracle with a walk-off win but it just wasn’t meant to be. Our Kansas City Royals gave it all they had and for the 2014 season has been the greatest baseball entertainment for this city since 1985, so “Thank You” to all The Kansas City Royals’ players for all you gave us this year. We know you tried. We know you wanted it but sometimes fate just isn’t in the cards.

PreveyCare Pilots Health Care System In Raytown By Diane Krizek Editor Would you be able to provide first responders with the prescriptions and medical history of your spouse should they collapse on the floor unconscious? I couldn’t. When my husband collapsed in our kitchen several years ago, I dialed 911 and within minutes my home was filled with at least 8 first responders from EMS, Fire and Police. EMS’ first question was, “What medications is he on?” I could not tell them and had to send one of them to the bathroom where my husband kept his prescription drugs. While taking my husband’s vital signs, EMS began asking rapid fire questions about his medical history, most of which I could recall. This information was of course critical to providing my husband the appropriate emergency medical treatment. But, what if he had collapsed on the street and I wasn’t there with him?
PreveyCare LLC was developed out of desire to improve preventive care and offer a printed and online health record for seniors and Medi-
care recipients in the Kansas City metro area that can be easily accessed by emergency personnel and medical professionals. But the pa-
tient remains in complete control of who can access their health record which is HIPAA and HITECH compliant. The service is free to Medicare recipients who are eligible for Medicare Annual Wellness Visits and costs a nominal fee for those who are not. PreveyCare was conceived by Chuck Smith and Dave Wilson of Raytown, Missouri. Smith, a RN BSN with over 20 years of emergency medical experience, had seen too many cases of patients showing up in ER who could not recall their prescriptions, medical history and didn’t know their family health history. “When patients were incapable of communicating, their family members could not answer my questions or were unavailable,” said Smith. Wilson brings to the table his experience in business development, education and community support. He’s made a presentation
to the Council of Aging. Bowen and Temple Heights apartments have agreed to promote the service to their residents. Doug Jonesi, Director of Raytown EMS is looking forward to using the service. The process begins with the patient meeting with a PreveyCare nurse practitioner, doctor or navigator to assist in building the health record and at the same time identifying preventive care services that the patient is eligible for under Medicare. Meetings will be conducted in the patient’s independent and assisted living homes and skilled nursing centers. Patients who don’t live in senior housing also have the option of visiting the PreveyCare clinic which is managed by Dr. Robert J. Cantor, a long time Raytown resident who has years of experience in general medicine, pediatrics, emergency medicine, urgent care and occupa-

The Raytown School District celebrated the groundbreaking of the new Raytown South High School stadium on October 28, 2014. School board members, high school staff, teachers, students and members of the community gathered on the edge of the field for this long awaited occasion. Dr. Allan Markley opened the ceremony followed by Dr. Kristie Collins-Delarber, Michael Katz, Dr. Kevin Overfelt and Dr. Travis Hux. “After 50 years, Raytown South will have its own stadium thanks to students, parents and the community for passing the bond issue back in April 2013 to make this day a reality and preserving our tradition of excellence,” said Markley. He reminded attendees that it was during his second year as superintendent
that two football games were played during rainy nights at Chittwood Stadium rendering the field completely unusable and that was why the school board voted to install turf on both high school fields, an investment they have never regretted. Dr. Kristie Collins-Delarber, school board president, remarked that everyone in the community is excited but there is mixed reactions from past graduates who ask “Why not sooner?” She quoted one alumni who said, “Raytown South should be able to play on its own turf both figuratively and physically.” Michael Katz of ACI Boland Architects expressed excitement about the school district letting his firm be part of the project which has taken months of meetings with the community and district to get to this point.

Twenty-five years later, her own two daughters were regularly taken to the soda fountain by their grandfather, Albert Oetting. Jean Campbell Greene remembers her date for the Junior Senior Prom in 1947 was made when a group of

For over seven decades, the business owners, civic leaders and old friends have gathered at Fox’s Drug Store lunch counter for breakfast, lunch, ice cream or coffee.
It was “the” place to learn of each day’s news, learn about what was going on in the City Government and to make business deals. Fox’s was the touchstone for all things “Raytown.” That feeling of “Coming Home” may be the essence of the success of the little drug store that Francis and Wandella began all those years ago.

Board To Consider New Smoke Shop Restrictions By Mallory Ragon The Raytown Board of Aldermen will be pursuing stricter regulations for the sale of tobacco and drug paraphernalia within city limits. Alderman Pat Ertz had suggested previously that the board consider such regula-
tions and led a roundtable discussion of the issue at the aldermen’s October 23 session. After discussions with the city prosecutor and city attorney, Ertz learned that glass pipes (often used for smoking marijuana or other illegal substances) and other
such items cannot be legally banned, but they can be restricted to places of sale where 75% or more of revenue is generated by tobacco sales. The city can also restrict the number of such shops within city limits. The aldermen emphasized that the board is not looking to
target anyone who is currently in business in the city, but to potentially limit additional shops interested in opening their doors in Raytown. Alderman Josh Greene made it clear he likely wouldn’t support a restriction on the number of shops
themselves, preferring instead to let the free market to dictate how many businesses open, but there was overwhelming consensus from the board to investigate potential measures they can take to limit sales to places out of sight of children—like gas stations and general con-
venience stores. “The idea is to make Raytown a more inviting place to live,” Ertz said. Joe Willerth, city attorney, will prepare proposals for the board’s consideration, likely to be reviewed by the end of the year.
Neighborhood Revitalization Presentation To Board By Mallory Ragon John Benson, development and public affairs director, gave an overview presentation of neighborhood revitalization tools to the board of aldermen Thursday night. He reviewed some of the city’s challenges and existing tools for neighborhood revitalization before briefing the board on some new and
potential tools to be used in the future. Some of the biggest hurdles the city is facing include codes violations, lost property tax revenue and the ongoing cost to the city for property maintenance (as in the case with abandoned properties). Raytown has relied on code enforcement and programs like the neighborhood stabilization program (which is feder-
ally funded through Housing Urban Development) and dangerous housing abatement (which, since it was adopted by the city in 2009, has allowed for the demolition of 7 homes). But such tools are often superficial fixes and don’t address underlying problems of ongoing maintenance of buildings and structures throughout the city. The city hopes to take
Man Found In Parking Lot Identified
The man found shot by Raytown Police in the parking lot of a shopping center in the 5200 block of Blue Ridge Boulevard on Friday night, October 24, 2014. The man who later died at an area hospital has been identified as Monteario Hogan, 22 years old, of Kansas City, Missouri. Responding to reports
of gunshots, police found the wounded man, who appeared to be in his 20s, in the parking lot at 5200 Blue Ridge Blvd. The Raytown Police are actively investigating the incident, and there are no persons of interest in custody. Anyone with information is asked to call the Tips Hotline at 816-474-TIPS.
advantage of the Missouri Abandoned Housing Act, a program that could be a good alternative to the city’s dangerous building abatement process. It allows the city to work with nonprofit organizations like the Builders Development Corporation (BDC) to petition courts for the transfer of ownership of abandoned properties to the city. The Missouri Neighborhood Preservation
Act is another state-level program the city is looking at. The program provides tax credits as an incentive for the rehabilitation or construction of owner-occupied homes in income-based designated areas. The department is also considering a partnership with Truman Heritage Habitat for Humanity. Their A Brush With Kindness program is a minor home re-
pairs program that assists primarily lower income homeowners maintain their property through supplies, equipment and volunteers. Benson also assured the board that they’re always looking for additional tools and programs to help in neighborhood revitalization efforts and encouraged them to look for more initiatives in 2015.
Talk Raytown Launched On KCXL On October 23, 2014, the Raytown-Brooking Eagle launched “Talk Raytown”, a new radio show on KCXL that will air Thursdays at noon on KCXL 1140 AM and 102.9 FM. The one-hour show will be moderated by Mike Hull and will cover people, places, businesses and events in Raytown, adding another dimension of coverage to enhance the print news. The Raytown Area Cham-
ber of Commerce will have a weekly segment on the show but being a chamber member is not a criteria for the show. Many new businesses will be featured as is done in the newspaper. Radio provides the opportunity for listeners to call in with questions during show segments. The first show opened with an introductory interview of Diane Krizek, editor of the Eagle, and Vicki Turnbow, Chamber president.
Guests included Loretha Hayden of Lufti’s Fried Fish and Chamber Chair, Mark Smith of Dick Smith Ford and Chamber Chair Elect, Jeff HIrst of Four Points by Sheraton at KC Sports Complex and Carmen Cerra of Weatherproof Roofing & Exterior.

Raytown To Find $80K To Keep Super Splash Open By Mallory Ragon The board of aldermen approved the 2015 park board budget at their October 23 session; after some careful consideration of Super Splash USA’s future the approved budget includes keeping the park open next year. The board had already approved the city’s budget with exception of
the parks budget, pending a decision on whether to close Super Splash next summer. The aging water park is due for a number of updates and repairs to remain operational. While the park saw increased revenue and attendance this summer, as well as a renewed focus on marketing efforts, it has continued costing the city each
year and does not generate a profit. The park board’s proposed budget includes a request for a cost-share agreement with the city to match park funds in the amount of $80,000 to prepare Super Splash for its 2015 season. With the department’s budget approved, the city will now be tasked with finding the additional funding and
amending the budget accordingly. Mayor David Bower echoed comments made by some of the aldermen that Super Splash is an important piece of the Raytown community and reluctance to see it close. “This is a very important decision for us to make,” Bower said. “If it closes in 2015, there’s a good chance
it does not open ever again.” Bower went on to encourage the board to approve the budget and the decision to keep the park open. “This is a real issue within our control,” he said. “I think we should be approving this with the intent to find $80,000.” Alderman Janet Em-
erson had the only vote against approval of the budget. Many of the aldermen hesitated before casting their votes; Aldermen Charlotte Melson and Bill Van Buskirk both passed in the initial vote roll call but ultimately voted in favor. Aldermen Jason Greene and Joe Creamer were absent from the meeting.
Raytown Three Trails Kiwanis Installs New Officers “A Year of Success in Service”
On October 9, 2014, the Raytown Three Trails Kiwanis Club held its annual installation of new officers. The new officers Brenda Gustafson, President; Elaine Schulze, Past President; John Benson, Vice President; Mary Lee Skitek, Secretary; Carrie West, Treasurer; at-large board mem-
bers, Martha Cockerell and Darryl Pitts were installed by Lt. District Govenor Gary Logan. Many thanks were extended to our outgoing President Elaine Schulze for her vision and tireless efforts to change the lives of children in our community. “I’m excited for our new year,” said Brenda Guststafson, new club president. “ We have many new ideas for helping the children in our
community.” During the installation ceremony, the club reflected on the 100th anniversary of Kiwanis this year. The club has taken to heart the role of servant leaders and our mission; “Focusing on changing the world by serving children, one child and one community at a time.” The local club empowers school students from elementary to college by teaching leader-
ship through service, strong moral character, life skills and improving self-esteem to others through programs, such as the Key Club for high school age, Builders Club for middle school and Kiwanis Terrific Kids for elementary. This year the club will sponsor three Raytown High School students for student leadership camp as well as sponsoring college scholarships for our high school
seniors. A few of the club’s service projects include Pumpkins On Parade, Teen Moms Club, Mothers Day Project (donating items for REAP that are not covered by WIC) Parents As Teachers, Relay for Life, Young Child Priority, Raytown School Foundation, Summer Lunch Program, Boys and Girls Club. Raytown Project Grad (both high schools). Cave Springs
Historic Site and Nature Trail and Embracing Education. Funds are raised for these projects through our Annual Golf Tournament and our Annual Trivia Night. Raytown Three Trails Kiwanis meets twice a month at noon at the UMB Bank on Raytown Road. For more information, visit http://moark4. com/raytown/
Second White Oak Sewer Change Order Approved By Mallory Ragon The board of aldermen has approved a second change order to the White Oak West sanitary sewer improvement project. The $3.1 million project has incurred some extra costs, leading the public works department to request about $53,000 in ad-
ditional funds. The funds are needed for rusted storm sewers that needed replacing as well as an unexpected sewer conflict that required relocation. There were also two homes that had service lines all the way across 83rd Street, which was unrealized at the project’s start. The department acknowl-
edged that some of these issues should have been known and budgeted for before construction began, but that some costs simply could not have been anticipated. The board also approved nearly $13,000 in additional funding in March in order to replace a manhole and reinforce a culvert. At that time,
the department admitted that more change orders may be requested, though it could not be foreseen how many or when. At the board’s October 23 session, the department asked the aldermen to be prepared to see at least one more change order—and perhaps more—before the project is completed.
Mayor Pro Tem Steve Mock thanked the residents of 83rd Street for their patience with the project, while Aldermen Michael Lightfoot, Bill Van Buskirk and Mock inquired about the manhole covers on 83rd, which they say are that are too low to drive across at the posted speed limit. The pub-
lic works department has agreed to investigate those issues further and ensure correction from the contractor as needed. The change order was approved with a unanimous vote from the board. Aldermen Joe Creamer and Jason Greene were absent from the meeting.

OPINION
A Great Talent’s Struggle in a Tough Business Part I
Letters to the editor Opposing Amendment 3 When Missouri voters go to the polls on November 4, they will see the long list of bullet points that are Amendment 3. A “yes” vote would amend the state constitution to affect teachers in all aspects of their job. School boards and administrators’ and teachers’ organizations are united in opposition to these changes. These groups think Amendment 3 is a bad idea. They are recommending a “no” vote. There are many reasons to vote “no” on this amendment. There is no need to have the state constitution amended to control what a teacher does in the classroom. School boards, superintendents, and principals already monitor curriculum and make sure the teacher is following the approved plan. The teacher is evaluated on whether s/he is teaching from this plan. The students are tested over the material the teacher presented during the school year by a variety of methods. Teachers test over lessons and units. They give comprehensive tests. Standardized tests are given by computer. Missouri already mandates a test in the spring to determine how each student, school, and district is progressing toward its goals. Those test results are published on TV, in the local papers, and online. These tests are doing their job in evaluating the students and teacher. They are effective but they cost money. We do not need more money spent on more testing. These extra tests could cost the state $1 billion. We need more money spent to fully fund the schools with the money promised by the legislature. Then schools Thanks to good people Events happen because of good people and over the past 5 years it has made Pumpkins on Parade better every year.

could fully implement educational programs. To base a teacher’s job on any one test is totally unfair. There are too many circumstances that affect tests besides student knowledge. Is the student sick? tired? anxious when taking tests? All these factors and more can skew test performance. School districts already have a procedure in place to hire and fire teachers. The school board, administration, and teacher groups have collaborated on these methods. The state does not need to be involved in whether an individual teacher continues to teach or is released. Amendment 3 has been sponsored by St. Louis billionaire Rex Sinquefield. He is against public school education. He has spent about $2 million to get Amendment 3 on the ballot. Both MSTA and MNEA, leading teacher groups, say this is a one-size-fits-all approach to education that would be costly to local districts and would create more standardized testing. Teachers, administrators, and local school boards should continue to determine what is taught in their districts. They can meet individual student’s needs. Students do not need to spend valuable education time preparing for more testing. School boards can spend money on needed programs not more tests. Administrators and teachers can work together to make changes needed in education rather than have these changes in the hands of the Missouri legislature. Please join me in voting NO on Amendment 3 on November 4. Carol Settergren, a Raytown retired teacher food.

So true is the case of many good and great talents. There is plenty of good talent to go around. Great talent, now that’s a different thing altogether. Greatness doesn’t guarantee a talent success, nor proper recognition or lots of money. After many years working with literally hundreds if not thousands of talents, I, for one, don’t find it hard to believe, that after so many disappointments over such a long time in one’s quest, some just plain decide to give up and pursue other endeavors. In some cases, I would agree wholeheartedly that they made the right decision. However, with RONNIE TURSO, this is not the case. He’s so far above the average great talent, and I still
believe he’s got a really good chance of doing many more wonderful things creatively in his life. Never quit, never give up your dream. Those words have been spoken by many of those late comers in the industry who became superstars after they were 50. In an exclusive phone interview Turso says “I had a wonderful Mom who was the go-getter Theater-Mom”. She took little Ronnie to auditions everywhere “but was not the bothersome type Mom that some are when he was working different engagements”, said Turso. I did personally meet and know her. Both parents were very supportive of his career in show-biz or the music industry. Ronnie’s Dad was a dairy driver delivering milk for some thirty years and worked hard supporting the family. Turso is a native New Yorker, born in Woodside, a New York Mets Fan and at the ripe old age of eight was
Jason Offutt Sitting near the back row of pews at church (are protestants even allowed to sit near the front?) the congregation burst into song because the program told us to. Otherwise we just sit there and try
not to make eye contact. The hymn bothered me. Is that wrong? It wasn’t the message, nor the melody. It wasn’t even that the song had too many verses (some hymns can last as long as a sermon). It was because of a simple, easily avoidable grammatical error that made me nearly shout during church, which I’m told is frowned upon because it’s not in the program. I might be able to handle this misuse of the English language if it was a one-time deal, but it was in the refrain. The refrain. The composer used “I” when he should have used “me.” Yeah, I’m that person. My grandmother was an
English teacher, so growing up the use of language was something I had to pay more attention to than silly things like math. That kind of attention turned me into someone who’s not very much fun to talk with at parties. Or at the grocery store. Standing in a grocery store checkout line one day, perusing magazine headlines like “Kim and Kanye are Space
Aliens from the Moons of Jupiter” (which I don’t doubt in the slightest), and “Sandra Bullock Channels Nostradamus; the End is Near,” I noticed a handmade cardboard sign on the credit card reader. It read, “This Machine is Broke.” Really? Broke? So, this device that is con-

He got various private parties to work as an entertainer for a while and worked a talent night at the well-known “Ye Little Club” in Beverly Hills one night a week to show off his wares.

Public Notice advertising plays a unique role both in American history and in the process by which this country’s democracy is preserved. Its one premise is that people must be informed if they are to govern themselves competently. Public Notice advertising first came into being with the Congress of 1792. That body, recognizing its responsibility to the people, required the Postmaster General to advertise for bids for the construction of new post offices. From that inauspicious beginning to the publication requirements in federal, state and local laws today, government officials have come more and more to understand their obligations to inform the public through Public Notice advertising. Newspapers over the years have been the vehicle by which these obligations have been fulfilled. They will continue to be as long as the public demands that it be informed frequently and by the best means possible.

Rosie’s Café, Local Breakfast Meeting Place For Nineteen Years
By George Michaud
Rosie’s Café is definitely a family. As you enter, one already feels at home by the way you’re greeted, either by Rosie herself, Nikol or Sharon Allison, a Raytown resident. Sharon has been a waitress with Rosie for over fifteen years now and loves every minute of it. Her smile and terrific service indicates that without anyone saying a word. Real family feeling. Rosie Whitehead, the owner tells me, “I opened on June 05, 1995”, as she pointed to a flyer right above my booth on the wall put there on opening day. Her main cook Richard Brazeal at right of photo and Jack Golladay has been a cook there for fifteen years, seen on left in photo. Chris has been bus-

Dr. Ben Carson, a retired pediatric neurosurgeon, now author and commentator, has a list of distinctions as long as my arm including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award, for establishment with his wife of reading rooms with books, bean bag chairs and scholarships for America’s youth. These reading rooms are now present in all 50 states. His 2013 book “America the Beautiful’ is rich in American history and as a father and grandfather he is vitally interested in protecting our life and liberties in accordance with the Ten Commandments handed down from God, our Heavenly Father to his servant Moses. As election time nears we have God fearing servants who are likewise interested in serving our country through public offices. We have Jacob Turk, a candidate for U.S. representative 5th district. With his presence at the Dr. Ben Carson lecture he demonstrated his conviction of the principles of life, liberty and religious freedom we currently enjoy through his service as a U.S. Marine Veteran, a family man, and an

Rosie herself. She is there every day working just like everyone else. As Rosie says, “it’s my way of keeping track of everything and saving as well”. It’s her policy to be open from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays and closed on Sundays and Mondays. “This way, everyone has a life beyond their job,” she said. Rosie has one son by the name of A.J. who is an IT expert for the local Commerce Bank and she’s very proud of him. “I tried to get him interested in the restaurant business but it just wasn’t his thing”, she said. She is overjoyed by the new member of her family, her 16-month old granddaughter whose name is Zephie Rose, named after Rosie. After I ordered my mush-

Theatre in America does not mean “the craft.” Tell that to an editor and they’ll laugh at you, then make you change the word to theater. • PIN number is repetitious.

One very large round table up front seats approximately 12 was occupied by all the older gentleman having their morning breakfast, sipping on coffee and talking about the Royals, the World Series, the Chiefs and other important business. Obviously, this is the place to hang out and just enjoy each other’s company each morning.

Everyone gets refills over and over and they talk about it all the time. The special they post on the chalkboard for this morning was Corned Beef Hash with eggs and toast for $5.25. Every morning there is a different one posted and their lunch special for today was Yankee Pot Roast with carrots, boiled potatoes and green beans served with a roll and butter. The rolls are always home made at Rosie’s. The food is delicious, well presented and plenty of it for everyone. Restrooms are clean. Service is very fast by all three servers other than

Raytown Fisherman Experiences A Muskie Fishing Dream By Diane Krizek Editor
with that guide, and I caught a total of six muskies in that time.” Most of the muskies were caught in 9 to 20 feet of water with a large spinnerbait called Cowgirl and a topwater lure called Pacemaker. Fall is the season for fishing the cold water muskie, a sport fish and not a prize eater like the Walleye. Spader goes fishing every chance he gets. He usually makes two trips to Devils
In late September, Ken Spader fished for muskies with guide, Jason Hamernick, on Lake Miltona in Minnesota. He caught and released seven muskies within just three days that measured from 38 to 52 inches long, an amazing feat! “That was the trip of a lifetime,” Spader said. “This was the fourth year I had fished
Lake in North Dakota to fish for northern pike and walleye and has had good luck at Mille Lacs Lake with guide Erin McCoy. Then there’s the family lake house in the Ozarks where he recently fished for white bass. Spader, a graduate of Center High School, moved to Raytown in 1978. “I’ve been fishing since I was six years old and am grateful to my Dad for teaching me how to enjoy the outdoors.”
This is no “fish that got away” story. Here are a few of Ken Spader’s photos of his amazing muskie catch.

“Better heart, brain, and joint benefits WITHOUT the fishy after taste!”
Say Goodbye to Bad Cholesterol, Joint Pain, Mood Swings, & Brain Fog in 30 Days or Less!
Say the ‘MaGiC WorD’ & reCeive a Box oF thiS CLiniCaLLy teSteD ForMuLa - Free! ‘Super Human’ Fish Oil! Ivy league physicians affiliated with Yale University believe their patented 4:1 ratio of EPA/DHA omega-3s are the future of fattyacid therapy and deliver almost ‘super human’ results. Prevention Pharmaceuticals, the makers of Omax3 ® Ultra Pure TM , have decided to giveaway 1,000 boxes in a massive initiative to get consumers to try it. “We believe one dose of this high performance 1.5g of omega-3 will change your opinion of fish oil with the dramatic results,” says Terry Tormey, CEO of Prevention Pharmaceuticals. Ultra Pure Formula Equals Safety Some supplements may contain more than just omega-3. And some of that "extra" content you could do without, such as saturated fats, including unwanted omega-6 fatty acids, and toxins like mercury, lead, and PCBs commonly found in fish.
Freezer Test Proves Purity Omax3® was shown in lab tests to be 91% pure, free of bad fats and toxins. You can prove this by freezing your own fish oil. Put a pill of your store bought brand of omega3 in the freezer overnight. Then put Omax3® Ultra PureTM in the freezer overnight. The difference is clear. The store bought brand will be cloudy, even a solid white. This is caused by the bad fats and toxins solidifying, which your body doesn’t need. Omax3 ® will remain clear, which equals safety and effectiveness. Fewer Pills Better Results The patented delivery system gives you 1.5g per serving in just two easy to swallow liquid gel capsules, compared to the 6-12 you would need to take of a store bought formula. This means fewer pills equals greater results, you can feel. Pharmaceutical Strength You now get the extreme health benefits you deserve and at the lowest possible price and without the fish burps!
If you’re worried about cholesterol, painful joints, poor memory, or mood swings, this formula will help or you don’t pay for it. Doctor Recommended “As a neurosurgeon I stand behind the breakthrough of the 4:1 ratio of EPA/DHA that makes up Omax3®. It’s simply the most effective. The pharmaceutically-activated molecule maximizes absorption. Personally, I use Omax3® to keep my joints pain free as I still run marathons at age 74. I notice the mental boost. It’s your best anti-aging weapon because it protects your heart, brain, and joints all in one pill.”
Say THE magic wORDS & iT’S FREE! Say: “No fish burps” and you can try Omax3® FREE! (just cover shipping fee) Free Book for readers of this paper! With your first order of the Risk Free Supply you’ll receive an absolutely free copy of Dr. Maroon’s book, Fish Oil – The Natural AntiInflammatory. (a $19.95 value) Free Vitamin D, Too! Be one of the first 500 callers and receive a free supply of High Potency Vitamin D. This pharmaceutical-grade formula comes in a tiny tablet delivering the maximum daily dose of vitamin D to help with immune function, calcium absorption, and cell regeneration. It’s included free, and is yours to keep no matter what you decide. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
