Spring gleaning

Local high school students collecting, donating excess produce to those in need By MITCHELL WHITE NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

s the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County ramps up operations to serve those in need during the COVID-19 pandemic, food delivery has taken top priority. With this in mind, Santa Barbara High students Andrew Douglas and Noach Wood learned that local fruit trees were overflowing, and gleaning took a back seat. Enter Teen Glean, a community service program focused on collecting excess produce from trees and delivering them to the local Foodbank or other organizations — free of charge. On Thursday, Andrew and Noach were joined by San Marcos High sophomore Henry Jessup as the boys visited the local office for the Teddy Bear Cancer Foundation, pulling up in a pickup truck with a full truck bed of avocados, oranges and grapefruits. The students carried countless boxes of produce into the secondfloor office building on upper State Street, which will be put towards the TBCF’s Mother’s Day fruit drive. Over the past three weeks, Andrew and Noach have been making stops at local residences

equipped with a truck, ladders and some much-needed manpower to gather up whatever they could. Whether it’s a neighbor with a few trees in their backyard, commercial locations that are closed due to the pandemic, or even local avocado orchards — every little bit makes a difference, said Noach. Both Dons credited their parents for kickstarting the program, though the boy’s hard work has helped turn it into something much bigger than they anticipated. “We kind of came up with it together,” Andrew said. “(Our parents) really pushed us to start and to do something while we’re in this quarantine instead of just sitting around. “We heard about all these people who weren’t getting food, and how the Foodbank — they weren’t being able to pick anything because all their time was going to deliveries.” After being able to count their clients on one hand during the initial rollout, the boys are now serving some 40 people as they visit two to three locations a day to collect the fruit. The program has not only been able to keep them busy while schooling has gone remote for the remainder of the year, but also opened their eyes to those who are less fortunate. In addition to

Thursday’s delivery, the boys have delivered produce to the homeless at Pershing Park. “We obviously wanted to do something that helped people out, especially because it’s a hard time for a lot of people,” Andrew said. Added Noach, “And we just feel good about it. You don’t feel good just staying home and playing video games all day. It makes you feel fulfilled.” As the program was developed, Noach and Andrew considered growing their own garden in their backyards to distribute. “But people needed food now and that was going to be a threemonth project,” Andrew said. “This would just get a lot more.” Tessa Boyce, volunteer coordinator for the TBCF, was at the office Thursday to accept the donation. Due to the pandemic, the organization has been thinking of new ways to engage volunteers. The organization posted on Facebook last week about developing a fruit drive, and Noach and Andrew quickly reached out. “I had been thinking about doing a fruit drive, and with it being Mother’s Day on Sunday, I thought it would be a perfect way to get people involved in the community,” she said. “We’ve got flowers donated as well, and Girl Scout cookies. It’s all coming together.”

The organization is planning to donate packages to 40 families in the Tri-Counties— from Santa Maria to Oxnard — this weekend. “It’s just a really easy way to support families in our community who have a child going through a pediatric cancer diagnosis,” she said. “We have a lot of newly diagnosed families within the last month, so especially being able to help those families has felt good.” Ms. Boyce, who was diagnosed with brain cancer eight years ago, has been with the TBCF since October 2017. After relocating to Santa Barbara from Colorado, she recalled initially finding it tough to meet people and get involved in the community. All that changed when she found the TBCF. “When I found Teddy Bear, it completely changed my life,” said Ms. Boyce, who has been in remission for the past seven years. “I feel connected to the community, and now I can’t imagine the fact that I didn’t like Santa Barbara.” Those interested in a gleaning can call or text the team at 805455-8987 to set up a visit. The group is also accepting donations through the Santa Barbara Bucket Brigade. To donate, visit www. sbbucketbrigade.org. email: mwhite@newspress.com

Nordstrom ends Paseo Nuevo era Nordstrom at Paseo Nuevo will close permanently by August. The news was confirmed Thursday by the store’s corporate headquarters in Seattle. The company issued this statement.: “Our goal is to best position ourselves to serve customers in each market where we operate. “Because of the impacts COVID-19 has had on our business, we need to take a critical look at the physical footprint of our stores to determine which we will continue to operate.

“To respond to the impacts of COVID-19 and ensure we’re able to continue serving customers well into the future, we will be closing 16 of our fleet of full-line stores, including Nordstrom Tyler, Nordstrom Santa Barbara Paseo Nuevo and Nordstrom Montclair Place. We selected these 16 stores based on a variety of factors, including the unique needs of the market, the current state of our business and real estate agreements.” Nordstrom has been an anchor at Paseo Nuevo for three decades. —Dave Mason

he Santa Barbara County Public Health Department held its first day of COVID19 testing at Earl Warren Showgrounds Thursday, expanding upon its first testing site that opened on Tuesday at Santa Maria Fairpark. A third testing site in Lompoc will be added Saturday at the Anderson Recreation Center. One-hundred and thirty-two people, the two sites’ maximum appointment capacity, were booked for testing at both

locations Thursday, between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Conducted by contractor OptumServe, the sites’ COVID-19 tests entail swabbing the inside of an individual’s nose and have a turnaround time of between 48 and 72 hours. OptumServe’s tests are diagnostic tests for COVID-19, rather than antibody tests that detect whether someone has been infected with the coronavirus in the past.

More than 20 years after they first opened, Chuckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Waterfront Grill and The Endless Summer Bar CafĂŠ are permanently closed. On the morning of April 30 the waterfront restaurant announced its closure with a farewell post on its Instagram account. The post read, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is with heavy hearts that we announce we have closed our doors for good. Thank you for your constant support. The memories will never be forgotten.â&#x20AC;? Despite the current economic chaos due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the prospect of Chuckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Endless Summer ceasing operation dates back to before the outbreak. According to the agenda of a March 24 Santa Barbara City Council meeting in which assignment of the restaurantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lease to a new operator was the first item, Chuckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Endless Summer co-owner Steve Hyslop informed the Waterfront Department of his desire to sell the establishment in August 2019.

Beautiful Porto And surrounding wine regions

By BETH BASTIAN SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-PRESS

Editor’s note: This is the second of two parts about Ms. Bastian’s trip to Portugal.

don’t think it is an exaggeration to say, Porto is a must-stop while in Portugal. A bustling and historic city, a thriving cultural hub and full of treasures. For many, their first stop will be to visit the gorgeous Sao Bento train station. The station’s entrance provides a breathtaking scene of floor to ceiling details of azulejo, the beautiful blue tiles that decorate the city. Remember how I mentioned my love of bookstores? Livraria Lello and its red colored gothic design has found fame as one of the most beautiful bookshops in the world, and was one of the key inspirations for J.K. Rowling and her book series, Harry Potter. After some touring, I was excited to start sipping the Port wine this city is known for and

headed across the Douro river to the town of Gaia. Just a fiveminute taxi ride from historic Porto center, Gaia is considered the “Real Port Wine town.” Here you’ll find the beautifully perched, Yeatman Hotel and the perfect balcony to start your tasting. Another option is to savor Port from one of several Port houses located along the river, in water-front caves and tasting rooms.   From Porto, most travelers will head into the Douro Valley, but I was determined to discover a wine region lesser known and off the beaten path. With this in mind, I headed south and inland towards the Alentejo region. Alentejo is relatively unknown to tourists — not for long, I’m sure — and this region is producing some outstanding wines. The area is dominated by red varieties however, and their whites are definitely starting to gain ground. As you drive through the Alentejo, you are struck by the pastoral scenes and there’s no better luxury “farm” stay then

the Sao Lourenco Do Barrocal. Here, you’ll be surrounded by ancient oaks and olive groves, be able to soak in a natural rockformed pool, and enjoy farm to table cooking with local wine pairings. After my stop at Sao Lourenco, I started making my way west, passing through the small town of Sao Pedro do Corval, known for its old tradition in pottery. Looking for a new set of dinnerware? This is the place for artisanal craftsmanship at great prices. Just make sure you leave room in your suitcase! My last stop in the region was the architectural luxury retreat, L’AND Vineyards Hotel. My sleek “sky suite” had a retractable roof to gaze at the stars, a soaking tub that could fit a party of four, and a real wood burning fireplace on my private patio. I had the pleasure of meeting with the owner of L’AND, Jose de Sousa Cunhal Sendim, who shared his passion for contemporary architecture, sustainable practices, and their custom wine production. Any

guests’ stay here will leave them with a memorable unique experience feeling recharged and refreshed.  From the L’AND hotel, it was an easy one-hour’s drive to the Lisbon international airport, and I was sad to leave with so much more of the country to explore. Next on my list? Southern Portugal, specifically Comporta, and the coast down through the Algarve. Stay tuned.

Grandma playing favorites

Elizabeth Caruso named Santa Barbara Bowl Performing Arts Teacher of the Year By PAUL GONZALEZ NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

lizabeth Caruso has always loved music, but growing up she never thought she’d enter the “family business” and become a teacher. Years later, on April 29, the Santa Barbara County Education Office named Ms. Caruso the 2021 Santa Barbara Bowl Performing Arts Teacher of the Year. She directs the 50-student Monroe Elementary School choir for grades four through six. Ms. Caruso recalled that she was “painfully shy” in her youth and that music was the creative outlet that allowed her to express herself as a student in school. “I would hardly ever raise my hand to speak, but in music class, my instruments spoke for me,” Ms. Caruso said. “I was always very musical. I was one of those kids that was constantly humming even at the dinner table, I’d get looks from my older brothers, ‘Stop humming, just eat your dinner,’ ” Ms. Caruso said. Her parents provided her with private music lessons, and she became so adept at the double bass that her elementary school music teacher ran out of things to teach her. “When I was in elementary school, I was getting so good at the double bass — that’s the giant cello — that my elementary music teacher said, ‘Well, you’re getting better than me. Is there something else you want to learn how to play?’ and I said, ‘Well, I want to learn to play guitar,’ and it turns out that he was a guitar major, that was his main instrument. “And so whereas I just wanted to play rock and roll, he saw my ability and talent, and he taught me classical guitar and jazz guitar, which is what I really excelled at,” Ms. Caruso said. She started learning the guitar in the fifth grade and eventually double-majored in both classical guitar and double bass as an undergrad at Long Island University. She attended the university on a full scholarship. “In music class, my instruments spoke for me. I didn’t really didn’t want to go into teaching because I was so shy until my junior year of high school,” Ms. Caruso said. “The band director had me become the drum major of the high school marching band. I had the baton, I had the sequin outfit, and that’s where everything changed. That leadership quality just bloomed out of me because

“I’m just so engaged and engaging in the classroom,” said Elizabeth Caruso, named the Santa Barbara Bowl Performing Arts Teacher of the Year. “It’s what I am meant to do, it’s when I’m my freest to be myself,”

it was leadership in an area that I was so comfortable with,” Ms. Caruso said. Her parents and two brothers are all teachers. They joke that teaching has become the family business. Ms. Caruso said her students continue to bring that leadership, charisma and passion for music out of her every school day. She said other teachers notice that her personality comes out when she’s in front of her students. “I’ve been told that my everyday adult persona is very different from my teaching persona. I’m just so engaged and engaging in the classroom. It’s what I am meant to do, it’s when I’m my freest to be myself,” Ms. Caruso said. Ms. Caruso has been teaching for 13 years. She started the Monroe Elementary School choir three years ago. Monroe Elementary School is the only school in the Santa Barbara Unified School district with a choir that meets during the school day. “It’s an equality issue. Several of our families don’t have cars and rely on bus transportation, so they wouldn’t be able to participate if they had to get to

school before or get picked up after,” Ms. Caruso said. She directs the choir based on standards for a professional ensemble and teaches techniques like harmony, diction, blending and balance. “We sing standard choral repertoire and then also throw in some pop for fun, occasionally choreography, but even when we sing pop, it’s artistically done. The kids are there singing with good support, they’re singing in tune, they’re using correct technique,” Ms. Caruso said. The students sing everything from traditional Swahili songs to pop hits by Meghan Trainor. “I’ve had the students from kindergarten, some of them even pre-K. I’ve developed a sense of trust and community with them, and when they come, they know that they’re part of a family. Getting the notes right, that’s just a minor detail. After that, it comes naturally,” Ms. Caruso said. “That transformation and inclusion of all students has just been an incredible thing to watch grow at our school.” email: pgonzalez@newspress.com

Fab Five to be joining Westmont volleyball By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

he start of the fall sports season may be up in the air because of the COVID19 pandemic, but Westmont College has already gotten a good jump in the sport of women’s volleyball. Coach Ruth McGolpin, who guided the Warriors to a secondplace finish at last year’s NAIA National Championships, has added five recruits for next season: Jessie Terlizzi of Scottsdale, Ariz.; Phoebe Minch of Fountain Valley; Emma Galloway of San Diego; Lilian Reininga of Leawood, Kan., and Jordan Cusator of Clovis. Westmont has scheduled its alumni game for Aug. 15 at 4 p.m. and its regular season for Aug. 19 against Corban University with a 7 p.m. start at Murchison Gym. Terlizzi led her region in kills in back-to-back seasons while playing for Scottsdale’s Notre Dame Preparatory High. She was also a three-time pick to the AllRegion First Team. She had more than 1,000 kills during her prep career and also won a national title in 2017 with her club team, Revolution Volleyball Academy, while being named tournament MVP. “Jessie is our first six-foot outside hitter since I have been a coach here,” McGolpin said. “She has a good arm swing and a big block, but what I like most about her is her spirit, determination and passion to win.” Minch was a first-team pick to the All-CIF Southern Section Division 3 squad for Fountain Valley High. She also led the Seal Beach Volleyball Club to a top-five

ranking in Southern California and top-20 national ranking during her six years on its roster. “Phoebe is a six-player rotation outside hitter with tremendous skill in the front and back row,” McGolpin said. “Her demeanor on and off the court is quiet, but she has a steady and smart confidence when she plays that will make her a threat at the net.” Galloway will join her sister, Hali, on next year’s Westmont roster. She was selected three times to her all-league first team as a setter while playing for San Diego’s Tri-City Christian High. She also played 10 years with the SoCal Volleyball Club. “Emma is a natural setter with amazing technique,” McGolpin said. “Her sets flow from her hands, and she makes good moves to the ball. She will be a quiet leader and has an amazing work ethic.” Reininga led Kansas’ Blue Valley North High to the top-

five state rankings three straight years. She also competed for the MAVS Volleyball Club, receiving All-Tournament selection as a defender from Prep Volleyball. “Lilian is a true defensive specialist,” McGolpin said. “She anticipates well on defense, is a steady passer, and has a tough jump float serve.” Cusator received the “Program Builder” Award at Clovis North High while leading it to a 10-0 season in the Tri-River Athletic Conference. She also qualified for Junior Nationals with the So Cal Juniors club team. “Jordan is an opposite hitter with a heavy and strong arm,” McGolpin said. “She can rip the ball and will be a solid block for us.” Westmont will be bidding for an unprecedented fifth consecutive trip to the NAIA National Tournament next year. email: mpatton@newspress.com

CODEWORD PUZZLE

SUDOKU

“What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?” — Vincent Van Gogh

HOROSCOPE Horoscope.com Friday, May 8, 2020 ARIES — It’s time to elevate your sense of self, Aries. You’re just as good as anyone else, so why don’t you believe it? The problem is that you’re very sensitive about having an ego. Even though you know everyone has an ego, you punish yourself for the existence of your own! This is a noble idea, but it doesn’t do you any good. You’ll never be perfect and neither will anyone else. The human experience is about change and growth, not perfection. TAURUS — Today your intellectual and expressive abilities should receive a boost from the planets. It’s an excellent time to organize your thoughts about presenting a project to a possible collaborator, engage in trade, or write. In terms of your private life, it’s also a good time to examine the latest events, certain aspects of which are still partially misunderstood. GEMINI — Overall, the forecast for today is fairly good. The aspects seem to favor figuring out the meaning of all that’s transpired over the past several weeks. It’s an opportunity for you to take a leisurely look at the distance you’ve covered moving toward your goals. Since it’s an auspicious day for social activities, why not get on a video chat or start a text thread with friends and discuss the latest events with them? CANCER — Have you felt somewhat lost for the past few days? The fog may lift today and enable you to situate yourself at last. You’re probably eager to settle a question that has nagged at you and interfered with your judgment. However, you should be patient, especially if it has to do with emotional matters. Try to understand, but don’t take immediate action. You’ll be more objective beginning tomorrow. LEO —You may have been feeling somewhat disillusioned. Perhaps you lost sight of your goals or misplaced your faith in yourself. You’ll feel some relief beginning today. This is an opportunity to end what has been a somewhat apathetic and moody phase and begin a new one that’s based on work and meditation. As you can imagine, this new phase will be much more fulfilling! VIRGO — You might be tempted to settle certain matters by radical means. The visionary part of you means you’re painfully aware of the world’s wrongs. You see no reason not to take action to correct them. But the forces in play are so powerful that you can’t expect to institute a new order in one day. If you have an emotional question to resolve, it would be better to

wait a few days before making a decision. LIBRA — Today will be fairly calm in terms of outside events, but your inner world is likely to be in a rush of activity. Today you wish you could find the solution to your heartaches as well as your career predicaments. You’d like to achieve some supreme understanding of the events that took place over the past month. First, you must force your brain to slow down. Haste makes waste, as you know! SCORPIO — You have a lot of thinking to do about your professional goals, Scorpio. You’ll go over the elements to see if there isn’t some way to approach things differently. Are there new paths you could try or ways to improve things? Your mind will go a thousand miles a minute today. Those who interact with you may be totally exhausted by the end of the day because of all the questions you ask! SAGITTARIUS —Have you felt somewhat lost for the past few days? The fog may lift today and enable you to situate yourself at last. You’re probably eager to settle a question that has nagged at you and interfered with your judgment. However, you should be patient, especially if it has to do with emotional matters. Try to understand, but don’t take immediate action. You’ll be more objective beginning tomorrow. CAPRICORN — This is a good moment to adapt your logic and reason to reality, Capricorn. If you don’t, you’re going to run into some intellectual problems. Everyone knows that you are a wealth of new ideas, but unless you have plans to be a novelist, link these ideas to practical matters. The “pie in the sky” thinking that you engage in isn’t particularly useful to the issues at hand that need your immediate attention. AQUARIUS — It’s going to be a little difficult talking to you today, Aquarius. You, who can be easily influenced by others, will be listening to and criticizing everything that people say. Nothing emotional or vague is going to get into your head. It’s as if you’ve installed an extremely fine filter that lets in only what you allow. While people respect your expertise, please take care not to patronize or talk down to them. PISCES — Have you been reviewing your family history lately, Pisces? Of special interest is your cultural background. What educational, social, and religious environment were you born into? What are their values? In the end, do you feel a strong affinity with them now or are those views different from the ones you hold? These are interesting avenues of thought for you today.

PUZZLE

5-8-20

5 — 8

Friday, May 8, 2020

INSTRUCTIONS Fill in the grid so every row, every column and every 3-by-3 grid contains the digits 1 through 9. that means that no number is repeated in any row, column or box. Sudoku puzzles appear on the Diversions page Monday-Saturday and on the crossword solutions page in Sunday’s Life section.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Helping children during COVID-19

HARGIS, Wanda Lucile Wanda Lucile Hargis, 92, passed away on February 18, 2020 after a short illness.

Local psychiatrist shares conflict tips for families stuck at home By CHRISTIAN WHITTLE NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

r. Don MacMannis has seen a shift in common problems young children are experiencing. Co-director of the Family Therapy Institute of Santa Barbara and a psychologist specializing in the treatment of children ages 2 through 12 and families, Dr. Mac has seen a rise in referrals for anxiety among his clients. Unfortunately during the coronavirus pandemic, a time when anxiety is rampant, Dr. Mac is unable to see clients in his office due to social distancing measures. “There’s no way for parents to even have a zoom session because they’ve got to deal with their kids, they can’t get a baby-sitter,” said Dr. Mac. “It’s kind of a perfect storm of challenges for families right now, and it’s a time when they particularly need some hope and some tools to sort of get along with each other right now.” To help families that may be feeling cooped up and having a difficult time dealing with conflict, Dr. Mac has put together some advice and tools to handle emotions based on his years of research and experience that he hopes will be useful during the pandemic. “During these tough times everybody’s really really struggling, especially families,” said Dr. Mac. “Kids are sometimes at each other’s throats. They’re taking out their frustrations on each other, so this is just one form of how it is that

parents can provide their kids with tools so that they can handle their feelings.” A guiding principle for Dr. Mac’s advice is that feelings want to come out. “We know from family research that repressing or holding feelings in gives us all kinds of health problems, it challenges our relationships, things can store up and then they can spill out later in ways that are beyond our control,” explained Dr. Mac. This can often manifest itself in family members taking their anxieties and frustrations out on each other. The key is to identify the underlying issue, Dr. Mac told the News-Press. Often the solution for a lot of these types of conflicts is to know that when we feel understood, our emotional brain settles down. “I feel heard. I feel understood. I’m going to have a better day. I’m going to feel better about myself, feel better about the relationship, and feel better about the other person who’s understanding me. People get caught in solving the problem rather than the feelings,” said Dr. Mac. Dr. Mac gave the example of parents dealing with fighting children by giving them rules, like letting each child take a turn with the remote control at a time. “That’s trying to solve the problem, but the underlying problem can often be they had trouble with sharing the bathroom that morning or one kid woke up the other kid and now he’s grumpy. There’s any number of interactional things that can happen where upsets build up. Resentments, fears or feelings

hurt,” said Dr. Mac. To help deal with this conflict, Dr. Mac shared what he calls the “Repair Kit”, a step-by-step guide to dealing with conflict. Person 1 starts as speaker and Person 2, the listener. Siblings should sit face-to-face so that their knees are almost touching. The speaker should avoid using words like you “always”, “never” and “every time” because these words increase defensiveness. It’s also recommended that the listener take frequent deep breaths to avoid becoming upset and reactive. To start, Person 1 will share with Person 2 the following: Express a genuine appreciation toward the other. Express, to let go of, one upsetting matter concerning the other. Express a desire about what you want in connection with the upset. After Person 1 completes the activity, reverse the flow so that Person 2 becomes the speaker and Person 1 becomes the listener. After a few rounds of going back and forth, a strong conclusion to the process is to share apologies with each other and share a hug or high five. “This tool that we developed is a way to have kids instead of hitting each other, being mean, withdrawing, all kinds of things, to be able to talk things out. Sit down and talk stuff out and be able to feel better then about the relationship,” said Dr. Mac. Dr. Mac describes the process as “clearing the slate”. “What we know is that when feelings build up, I’m less likely to be nice to you, but if I can tell you

what made me mad when you did thus and such to me, well then OK! Now we can play together again,” said Dr. Mac. As an award-winning songwriter as well, Dr. Mac also shared two songs to help kids learn the lesson while being entertained. “There’s a real benefit to being able to hear uplifting songs that convey a message, and they can all share that,” said Dr. Mac. Interested parents can download “Talk it out” and “In the Same Boat” at https:// happykidssongs.com/2-free-songs/. The exercise isn’t just useful for children, and Dr. Mac recommends that couples who may feel anxiety or resentment building up between them during quarantine should give it a go themselves. “We’re all in the same boat, so getting you back just means it comes back at me,” said Dr. Mac. Aside from a good diet, exercise and sleep, Dr. Mac said an important thing to keep in mind while dealing with stress and anxiety is that you can’t keep it from your family. Try as you might, your underlying feelings will affect those around you. “They can’t do it. This is science. They’re doing measures of levels of stress in people connected to the levels of stress in others around them. We literally live in a sea of influence where if we can focus on how I can heal myself and how I can bring out the best in other people, that’s the key to having healthy long-term relationships,” said Dr. Mac. email: cwhittle@newspress.com

n recognition of Nurses Week, local nurses from Lompoc Valley Medical Center, the Comprehensive Care Center and all Lompoc Health sites have come together to donate a total of $3,000 to the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County. The check was presented to Foodbank Development Manager Laurel Alcantar on Wednesday. According to Chief Nursing Officer Yvette Cope, each $1 donation enables the food bank to feed up to eight people in the community. In making the donation, nurses across the area wanted to make their appreciation known for all the help from the local community, including donations such as Personal Protective Equipment, signs in yards, produce, food, wine, letters and more.

Wanda met her future husband Daniel B. Hargis when she drove a church group to the Rose parade. On the way down to the parade, Dan rode in the back seat. However, on the return trip he rode in the front seat. They were married in June 1956 and three boys quickly followed, Jerry in 1957, Jeff in 1958 and Joel in 1962. Wanda returned to teaching when Joel started kindergarten in 1967. Wanda had to take early retirement in 1984 due to severe hearing loss in both ears. After Dan retired, they decided to sell their Goleta home and start a new life of retirement in the Quail Meadows community of Santa Maria. A new community with new neighbors of all about the same age and varied backgrounds meant a whole new life of friends, social activities and travel. Some of the highlights of their travel was a three-week trip to Australia and New Zealand. They also had a lengthy cruise on the Rhine and other rivers in Europe. Wanda was preceded in death by her parents Charles and Edith Dooling, brother Bob, husband Daniel and son Joel. Wanda is survived by her oldest son Jerry (Evelyn), her son Jeff and her niece Lorri Kirker (Randy) along with her grandson Garrett and many step-grandchildren. Daughter-in-law Evelyn said Wanda was the best mother-in-law ever. Evelyn often said she hoped she could relate to her own relatives the way Wanda did with hers. Evelyn often used the phrase “WWWD.” What would Wanda do? No services are planned at this time. However, donations can be made to any local animal shelter in Wanda’s name. She had a special place in her heart for all of the furry friends she had over her life.

“We have such an amazing and compassionate community – unlike any other that we’ve been a part of,” Ms. Cope said. “Our nurses are proud and honored to give this donation to feed so many.” Through this pandemic, the Foodbank has been able to provide a slew of help. Ms. Alcantar said the Foodbank has provided community members more than 2.3 million pounds of healthy groceries and fresh produce since March 9, twice as much food as the same period in 2019. Additionally, the Foodbank has completed 10,000 home deliveries to seniors in need countywide. “The generous funds that they have raised for the Foodbank will allow us to continue adapting to the expanded need our communities face as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,” Ms. Alcantar said. email: jmercado@newspress.com
