COVID-19 mobile app coming to UCSB By MITCHELL WHITE NEWS-PRESS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

COVID-19? Apparently there’s an app for that, too. At least that is what is being examined at UCSB as, starting Monday, the university will become one of five campuses to join California COVID Notify, a pilot program of a smartphonebased COVID-19 exposure notification system. The program is a collaboration between the University of California and the state to assess use of the technology on a voluntary basis as a means of reducing the spread of the coronavirus. The opt-in system, which uses Google/Apple Exposure Notification technology on smartphones, is designed to supplement existing contact tracing protocols to further help limit the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. It will become available statewide in December, according to officials. UCSB faculty, staff and students will receive a campus-wide memo Monday that will include a link to instructions for opting in to the notification system. One of the major goals of the pilot program is to determine whether using the new smartphone technology can encourage users to respond to a high-risk exposure more quickly by self-isolating and receiving additional clinical resources, which are viewed as key steps to mitigating the transmission of COVID-19. The technology uses Bluetooth to enable those who use the system to receive automatic smartphone notifications of potential exposure to other enrolled users who are subsequently diagnosed with

COVID-19, regardless of whether the users know each other. “This system is beneficial for two reasons,” Dr. Laura Polito, medical director of UCSB’s COVID-19 Response Team and associate medical director at Student Health, said in a statement. “First, if you keep the app running, it will notify you if you have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, even if you don’t know that person. So, if you were in a restaurant, out exercising or in a social situation and were close enough to someone to be exposed to COVID-19, the app will notify you.

Volunteers packed various household items into care packages destined for U.S. military personnel at the Veterans Memorial Hall in Solvang on Friday.

By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

During a chilly Friday morning in Solvang, nearly 20 volunteers for We Support the Troops, Inc. gathered at the Solvang Veterans Memorial Hall again to pack up food and supplies and ship the boxes to troops overseas. The nonprofit has been mailing out boxes every month since 2004, and the Christmas/Holiday packing Friday morning marked the final packing of 2020. The volunteers will pick back up again in 2021. This month, the volunteers packed and mailed 187 boxes with various items inside. While last year’s Christmas packing total reached 244, COVID-19 restrictions impacted the capabilities of the organization. Packages are sent to soldiers in a combat outpost or a forward operating base, because they don’t have access to a base exchange. “Some of them are reduced to eating just meals ready to eat,” Pat Sullivan, an organizer of the packing, told the News-Press. “So they depend on us for hygiene, particularly the women, because they are not well supplied at all.” Ms. Sullivan herself served 26 years in the Air Force and understands the soldiers’ need for basic necessities of life, personal hygiene items and educational materials not available in the field.

The Santa Maria Museum of Flight has added former Santa Maria Fairpark CEO Richard Persons to its board of directors in an effort to increase the museum’s number of outdoor events amid the COVID-19 pandemic. In a press release, the museum’s CEO Esmeralda Mendoza remarked that she and other museum leaders are doubtful that the Museum of Flight will be able to revert back to the way it operated before COVID-19, so Mr. Persons’ experience with event planning will be helpful in finding a new direction for events. “We’re thrilled to have Rich join our board because he has so much knowledge of planning and production of all types of events,” she said. Mr. Persons left the Santa Maria Fairpark in order to spare the organization the cost of paying his salary, its highest expense, at a time it wasn’t able to make money from hosting events. After retiring, he joined the Santa Maria Museum of Flight’s board to help it with planning new events that will fit pandemic conditions. Mr. Persons himself is a flying enthusiast who has his own aircraft and is a founding member

Santa Barbara Symphony violinists Jessica Guideri and Elizabeth Hedman, cellist Trevor Handy, and violist Erik Rynearson performed “Beethoven’s Opus 18, No. 4 in C minor� during a taping of the symphony’s next virtual concert at the Music Academy of the West’s Hahn Hall.

By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

This year marks the 250th birthday of renowned classical composer Ludwig van Beethoven. The Santa Barbara Symphony is celebrating the occasion with the next date of its 2020-2021 season, “Beethoven @ 250.� Pre-recorded live for virtual streaming rather than before a live, in-person audience to comply with COVID-19 restrictions, the symphony’s performance will be livestreamed at 7 p.m. on Nov. 21 and 3 p.m. Nov. 22. It will include Beethoven renditions from a string quartet consisting of violinist and Symphony concertmaster Jessica Guideri, violinist Elizabeth Hedman, violist Erik Rynearson, and cellist Trevor Handy. The News-Press sat in on the program’s taping Friday morning at the Music Academy of the West’s

a Music Academy of the West Alumna and a Chrisman Studio Artist for Opera Santa Barbara’s 2019-2020 season. Virtual tickets for “Beethoven @ 250� cost $43 per household with a series subscription that provides a link to view the livestream and re-watch the program for up to 30 days after the initial broadcast. A pre-show program, featuring behind-the-scenes interviews, will be shown 30 minutes before both the Nov. 21 and 22 shows. As was the case with the 20202021 season’s first virtual concert “Cabaret with Kabaretti,� DUO Catering is once again offering a Symphony-inspired dinner menu and signature cocktail that viewers can order for delivery or takeout during the broadcast. “Beethoven @ 250� tickets can be purchased online at thesymphony.org.

Hahn Hall and watched the four musicians run through takes of “Beethoven’s Opus 18, No. 4 in C minor.� Some takes were abruptly stopped after a few musical phrases the players thought were unsatisfactory. Each time the quartet played a complete take, they conversed with one another about passages that needed improving before moving on to the next take. If they needed an opinion other than their own, they sought the advice of Santa Barbara Symphony personnel manager Ryan Sweeney, who sat in the auditorium and listened for errors as he eyed the musicians’ charts on a tablet. According to a press release, next weekend’s livestream will also include guest performances from artists such as pianist Robert Koenig, who serves as the chair of the UCSB Department of Music, and vocal soprano Julia Metzler,

Continued from Page A1 around other people who you don’t know but who also subscribe to the app, the app will notify them for you. This allows people to find out about the exposure sooner and get tested sooner than they might otherwise.� Dr. Mary Ferris, the campus’s COVID-19 clinical advisor, said the new tracking app has the potential to “greatly enhance� efforts to identify close contacts from confirmed COVID-19 cases. “Besides being extremely accurate about the contacts, it also provides confidentiality in the notifications, which is a barrier we have encountered frequently when trying to identify close contacts,� she said. “If we can encourage widespread adoption of the app, it will be most effective and greatly help us find the contacts early in order to advise them on quarantine to prevent further spread of the disease,� she continued. “Just a single case of COVID-19 can result in widespread disease transmission and even death, so this is a noble effort we all should support.� The technology employs Bluetooth to communicate with other Bluetooth-enabled devices nearby — such as the smartphones of people seated near you in a restaurant or standing in line at a grocery store. When a person joins the notification system, the user’s phone broadcasts a random identification number to other phones in the area. When phones come within six feet of each other, they log one another’s respective ID’s — but with no reference or attachment to names or locations. If a user of the notification system is diagnosed with COVID-19, that individual can enter a key code indicating a positive test result. This in turn will generate anonymous alerts to other notification system users based on their respective exposures — proximity and length of time — to that individual. As part of the privacy-first approach, users decide whether they want to share a verified positive test result with the app and determine whether they want to share that with other users. “It neither gathers nor sends any personal information,� Dr. Polito said. “The university doesn’t know if you have the app unless you choose to share that information. It’s also important to know it does not replace case management and contact tracing, so it is still vital to the mitigation of the spread of

By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The two-year effort by the Santa Barbara Vintners Association to form a Wine Business Improvement District, funded by a 1% sales assessment on all Directto-Consumer sales in the county, was officially dropped on Oct. 29. The BID was advertised by the association as a way to provide funding for Santa Barbara County wine, winery and vineyard promotions. All DTC sales that incur state sales tax, including wine, tasting fees, merchandise, food, events and wine clubs would have had a 1% tax on them. The concept met opposition from more than 85 local wineries and tasting rooms. Forty-five of those were in Lompoc alone, and the Lompoc City Council unanimously rejected the BID, voting 5-0 during its meeting on Oct. 20. However, what ultimately pulled the plug from the BID was a letter from the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association. The letter informed the Vintners Association of their two concerns with the idea: that it is a sales tax and it is unconstitutional. The letter, obtained by the News-Press, states that the BID violates Proposition 26, specifically citing that there is no way to be sure that every winery is seeing increased sales worth the same or more than their payments or that increased sales are attributable to the charges, and that benefits are not direct to the payer. “The new system the Vintners Association seeks is obviously a sales tax collection system,� the letter read. “It wishes the county government had a sales tax collection system it could use, recognizes that none exists because sales tax collection is a state function, and then asks the county to intrude into state territory to create a new countyrun system to collect its proposed Wine BID sales tax.� Sent on Sept. 30, the letter pointed out that the BID would require two-thirds voter approval, not just majority winery approval under Proposition 26 “Because the judiciary interprets the Constitution, there is no guarantee that the Legislature’s interpretation will stand up in court,� the letter stated. “Such a case would be one of first impression.� Alison Laslett, CEO and board member of the Santa Barbara Vintners Association, told the News-Press the letter “ultimately

made the decision� to drop the efforts for the BID. “We were not in a position to survive a lawsuit if it were to come to that,� she said. “I think that we did a really good and comprehensive job in developing the BID and the structure of it, listening to the vintners according to what they wanted or asked us to accommodate and we were making progress. “But at the end of the day, with potential legal action coming, that was not going to be something we could sustain.� The letter from the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association was reviewed by legal counsel and BID expert consultants, and according to Ms. Laslett, they calculated a 90% chance of a lawsuit being filed. In a statement on the HJTA letter, the Vintners Association stood by their legal basis supporting the BID. “Notwithstanding the weak legal arguments in the letter, the Association was advised that these letters typically result in a lawsuit being filed on the grounds cited in the letter,� the statement read. “We’re not going to pursue a mandatory approach at this point,� Ms. Laslett continued. “We’ll continue to do the work that we have always done and we’ll keep the organization a voluntary organization.� She added that she’s now interested in moving on from this issue and that “while people disagreed with the BID as a funding source, they don’t disagree that the industry needs to work together and then they’ll be more effective.� Doug Margerum, the owner

of Margerum Wine Company, was one of the supporters of the BID, and told the News-Press, “It became quite obvious when they filed a lawsuit that we were going to create a horrible dynamic within the Vintners Association. “It didn’t work because there was very, very vocal opposition to it, and you have to find out from them what the real opposition was,â€? Mr. Margerum said. “I think some of it is just no tax is a good tax, ever.â€? He added that he thought the actual plan was “terrific,â€? and not an unusual plan, either. “With the vocal people against the BID, I admire their passion, but I said (in an email), ‘I will join your group if you tell me what your plan is to promote Santa Barbara County wine,’ and I sent it to all the leadership of the group, all friends of mine.... No response,â€? Mr. Margerum said. David deLaski, owner of Solminer Wine Company, was one of the leading opposing voices and helped write a letter that was sent to around 300 wineries on behalf of a coalition of wineries opposing the BID when the idea was announced. In addition, he asked for a raise of hands of those who wouldn’t agree to the BID, and heard back from 85 wineries in opposition to the 1% sales tax, and “that in itself showed that there just wasn’t quite a consensus here,â€? he said. “It became necessary to ask for a raise of hands to see who was going to actually say, ‘Yes, we actually oppose this because it’s not fair,’â€? Mr. deLaski told the News-Press. He also said that he believes no one threatened a lawsuit. “There’s a difference between a threat and threaten. I know of no one who threatened a lawsuit,â€? Mr. deLaski continued. “The county never received and approved a master plan for the BID, so there was no way to even file a lawsuit. It never materialized. “It was a fairly boilerplate response by Jarvis that they send to potential BIDs that are trying to assess tax-like fees.â€? In the end, Mr. deLaski said that he and his coalition are happy to support a fair and equitable way to promote Santa Barbara County, including options like a grape tax. “There were just so many issues‌ that we had to really bring to the surface and show the leadership of the association that, look, these are real problems that can’t be ignored, and if you actually managed to get the county to approve this, it would continue to be problematic,â€? he said. “I think they finally listened.â€? email: gmccormick@newspress.com

here’s nothing fake about the setting for the movie, “A Very Charming Christmas Town,” a holiday movie showing on the Lifetime channel through Jan. 3. It actually was filmed in Solvang last December during the annual Julefest celebration. “The scenes of the Christmas tree lighting and the parade

were done during the actual events, and businesses like The Mole Hole gift shop, Ingeborg’s Danish Chocolates and Mortensen’s Danish Bakery have starring roles in the movie,” said Daniel Lahr, film liaison for the Solvang Conference and Visitors Bureau. He was contacted in the summer of 2019 by Autumn Federici, producer, and Jake Helgren, writer/director, of the movie which stars Natalie Hall and Jon Prescott.

Natalie plays the role of city girl Aubrey Lang, a lifestyle blogger, who is assigned to write a travel story about the most Christmassy town in the United States. When she arrives in Solvang, she thinks it is nothing but a tourist trap and plans to write a critical review about the town which has gained a nationwide reputation for being what it is. But Jon Prescott as Sawyer Larsen, a handsome shop owner, shows her the town, she starts

to feel the magic of Solvang’s Christmas spirit. “When Autumn and Jake came to Solvang, I gave them a tour of the city, and since I was also special events coordinator for Julefest for three years, I also told them about the various holiday festivities. They became very excited about making a Christmas movie in Solvang,” said Mr. Lahr, who ended up playing a small role in the movie as the husband of Ms. Federici, Please see charming on A7

the producer who is also an actress. “They don’t call it a cameo role. I was a featured extra,� he said with a chuckle. As executive director of the Central Coast Film Society, Mr. Lahr was helpful in rounding up several hundred extras to fill the background of the busy streets of Solvang. “I used my social media contacts to find them. Some are from Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo. They were very excited, and many of them have their name in the film credits, which is very unusual,� said Mr. Lahr, who grew up in Solvang, graduated from Santa Ynez Valley Union High School in 2001 and earned his bachelor of fine arts degree at the Academy of Art University in

San Francisco. After working on projects in the Los Angeles area, he returned to the Central Coast in 2017 with his wife, Amberly Lahr, and their two young children, Amelia, 5, and Jeremiah, 3, who now live in Arroyo Grande. “As a 10th generation Californian, I can’t say enough nice things about the production company. They captured my love and passion for Solvang in the movie. They kept what is the true essence of the community,� said Mr. Lahr. He is also hoping that the movie will attract visitors to the town which depends heavily on tourism and was hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. “According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lifetime Christmas movies will get at least one million views for each film,� said Mr. Lahr. email: mmcmahon@newspress.com

Sustainability in Practice Rodney’s Vineyard achieves rigorous certification By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

T

he Fess Parker family’s estate vineyard, Rodney’s, has been recognized by third-party certifier Sustainability in Practice for meeting rigorous standards of environmental protection and preservation. The announcement comes at the end of the 20th anniversary for the family’s Epiphany label, which sources much of the fruit for its wines from Rodney’s Vineyard. “As a family owned and operated business, good stewardship of our natural resources is embedded in everything we do,� said Eli Parker, owner. “When we launched Epiphany 20 years ago, it was a celebration of the grapes from our family estate -— Rhone varietals that thrived in the microclimate of Foxen Canyon -— so becoming SIP Certified feels like a great way to honor our original vision.� SIP Certified is a rigorous sustainable vineyard, winery and wine certification with strict, non-negotiable standards based on science and expert input, independent verification, transparency and absence of conflict of interest. Certification addresses the three P’s of Sustainability — People, Planet, Prosperity — ensuring that both natural and

human resources are protected. Meeting the standards requires a measurable, holistic set of practices addressing habitat, water, energy, soil, recycling, air quality, packaging, pest management, social equity and business management. “Achievements such as SIP Certified are fantastic recognition of what that stewardship means, not just to our customers, but to our suppliers and staff as well,� added owner Ashley ParkerSnider. “After more than 30 years on the home ranch in Los Olivos, we welcome the opportunity to celebrate what sustainability in practice looks like for the long term.� The multiyear certification initiative was led by winery president Tim Snider, head winemaker Blair Fox and associate winemaker Tyler Eck. The winemaking team, together with Coastal Vineyard Care, pursued the following practices that earned the SIP Certified seal of approval: Irrigation is only applied based on the needs of the vines as determined by visual inspection as well as soil and plant-based

monitoring sensors. The biological health of the soil is cultivated by introducing beneficial ground cover to deliver nutrients naturally. Natural soil management prevents erosion, restores nutrients and reduces need for human intervention. On Rodney’s Vineyard, owl boxes are placed throughout the vineyards to promote biodiversity and so that the owls will hunt the gophers and ground squirrels that damage the vines by eating their roots. In addition to providing safe and fair working conditions, Fess Parker Winery offers competitive employee wages and benefits, including a profit sharing program distributed across all divisions of the organization. The winery is also committed to the team’s professional growth, with development opportunities from “tailgate meetings� on the vineyard to certifications through GuildSomm and the Court of Master Sommeliers. “SIP Certified represents how it all comes together for us under the Fess Parker family portfolio,� said Ms. Parker-Snider. “We are committed to making the best wines we can, for as long as we can — and as a generational business, that means thinking about our natural resources generationally, as well.� email: mmcmahon@news-press. com

SANTA BARBARA — Next month, Peoples’ Self-Help Housing will open Heath House, a restored historic property on Sola Street. According to a press release, the historic house used to be an AIDS hospice. PSHH purchased the building earlier this year and renovated it.

HOROSCOPE LIBRA — Your mind is full of wonderful thoughts today, Libra. You might consider spending the day meditating, doing some volunteer work, or turning your inspiration into an artistic project of some kind. Your intuition is especially high, so you might tune in more acutely than usual to the thoughts and feelings of others. Take a few minutes during the day to be alone with your thoughts. You will probably benefit from it. SCORPIO — A desire to be creative could have you experimenting with various kinds of artistic disciplines, perhaps in connection with computers, Scorpio. At some point today you could be in the right place at the right time, receiving just the right help from someone who can point you in whatever direction you want to go. Ambitious plans could fill your head and keep your mind buzzing. Make a list! It might help. SAGITTARIUS — Artistic inspiration could come from deep within at some point today, perhaps even from a dream or vision. You’re likely to have a lot of energy to pour into creativity right now, Sagittarius, and if you work hard and don’t lose sight of the business side of the arts, you could move forward. Don’t be surprised if you suddenly meet the right person to give you the right advice! CAPRICORN — Today you might toy with the idea of publishing, exhibiting, or otherwise making public whatever creative innovations you’ve been working on, Capricorn. Spiritual information could come your way from afar, perhaps through friends or a group with which you’re affiliated. Inspiration of all kinds could pop in and out of your head, so it might be best to write down your thoughts. AQUARIUS — Inspiration in various contexts could fill your mind today, Aquarius. Opportunities to advance your artistic or spiritual interests could come your way, perhaps through advice given by a new acquaintance. You could also be in the right place at the right time to get a lucky break. You’re likely to feel especially romantic and sexy. You might want to celebrate your good fortune by getting together with your partner. PISCES — Social events with artistically or spiritually inclined people could have you feeling especially inspired, Pisces, and looking forward to the future in whatever discipline interests you. You’re also likely to be feeling especially romantic and sexy. You will want to schedule time alone with that special someone in your life. If you aren’t currently involved, you could meet someone special today.

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.

Westmont men’s basketball looking for a new look Warriors’ schedule released, tonight’s home opener canceled due to COVID-19 By GERRY FALL NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

It is returning a number of standout players from last season’s highly successful team, but for the Westmont men’s basketball team and its first-year head coach Landon Boucher, they are looking for a new identity. It helps that Boucher, a former head coach at San Marcos High, is entering his first season — taking over for longtime coach John Moore. “That’s been our thing, how do we make this year feel new and not repetitive?� Boucher said. “I think the guys have found newness in the practices we’ve had. If we can continue to make it feel like it’s different and not the same thing, I think we can stay out of complacency.� The daily mentality and approach is something Boucher stresses. “We go to practice every single day and try to replicate the atmosphere, the effort, the focus and the mentality that you would if you’re playing in a national championship game,� he said. “I think that we’ve made a discussion of, ‘Hey, if we show up and treat every day like it’s an NBA Game 7 or a national title game, that will flow results.’ We haven’t talked about end goals. We’re taking it one day at a time and I think it’s a good year to do that.� This year’s team motto is “all-in.� “That’s a motto that Jordan Spaschak and the team came up with last year,� Boucher said. “All-in is just saying, ‘You’re all-in for the team. The team comes first and you’re putting your team before yourself. The team’s success is the most important.’� Boucher has been impressed with his team’s ability to stay “all-in� despite the uncertainty surrounding the team’s 202021 schedule and potential to complete a full season. “I’ve been really impressed with our team being mentally and physically zoned in in practice when we don’t quite know what the year will look like,� Boucher said. “We have a few games on the schedule, but we’re still waiting on the NAIA to make decisions. You would think that would dictate focus and effort in practice, but it hasn’t. “Maybe that’s because we went like eight months without playing basketball. That could be it, but I think that these

COURTESY PHOTOS

Above left, Westmont senior Abram Carrasco led the Warriors last season in scoring (18.9 points per game), assists (4.8 per game) and averaged 4.1 rebounds. Above right, senior Hunter Sipe also averaged double digits for Westmont last season, scoring 11.4 points per game. He finished second on the team in rebounding (6.2 per game) and assists (3.5 per game).

guys are doing a good job of finding newness in today and feeling like it’s a gift to be on the court, even if it’s just five-onfive in practice playing against your own team. I think it’s been awesome. We have a veteran crew on our team and I think we’re only going to get older and more veteran-like in the year to come.� The Warriors’ current veteran crew gained valuable experience in 201920, when Westmont won its first Golden State Athletic Conference regular season championship since 2012-13 and earned the second seed in the Liston Bracket of the NAIA National Tournament before it was ultimately canceled due to COVID-19. Finishing first last season, however, doesn’t translate to this season’s preseason GSAC poll. Despite winning the conference title and finishing last year ranked seventh in the final NAIA Coaches’ Poll, the Warriors find themselves picked to finish third in the conference in 2020-21 and are only receiving votes in the NAIA Preseason Coaches’ Poll. Boucher said initially missing out on the top-25 could actually help his team, much as it did last year, when Westmont was picked to finish sixth in the GSAC

and was not featured in the top-25 national rankings going into the season. “I think we’re still being overlooked, which is adding motivation for us as well,� Boucher said. “I don’t talk about it with the players at all because they’re old enough and they’re wise enough as players and humans, to take offense to that and use that as motivation. “We also know that the first ranking is always subjective and not objective. It’s based on opinions and not performance, so frankly I don’t really care what happens in the first poll, but it definitely is there and we feel it. We’re not taking a ton of stock in it, but we’re trying to use it for a good. I think that we’ve done that so far and I’m looking forward to seeing what lies ahead and hopefully we will be able to play some of those teams in the top-25.� The team not only returns four starters from a season ago, but also players who averaged double figures in scoring. Seniors Abram Carrasco (18.9 points per game) and Hunter Sipe (11.4 ppg) will be joined by junior Cade Roth (10.5 ppg) and sophomore Jared Brown (11.3 ppg). Carrasco, the reigning GSAC Player of the Year and an NAIA First Team All-

American, led the Warriors last year in scoring and assists (4.8 assists per game), while also averaging 4.1 rebounds per game. Heading into the 2020-21 season, Carrasco was selected as a Preseason AllAmerican by Basketball Times. Sipe also ranked third on the team last year in scoring, rebounding (5.7 per game) and steals (41). Roth, who missed nine games last season due to injury, still finished second on the team in rebounding (6.2 rpg) and assists (3.5 apg), while also shooting 50% from 3-point range. Brown started every single game last season and led the team in steals (44) as a freshman. The Warriors return six other players — seniors Gyse Hulsebosch and Tristan Lloyd, juniors Tyler Austin and Josiah Esselstrom, and sophomores Noah Fernando and Solomon Davis — who contributed significantly to last season’s success. The Warriors were set to open the season tonight against Saint Katherine, though the game was postponed on Friday after a Saint Katherine player tested positive for COVID-19. The two teams are hoping to reschedule the game at some point in the near future.

Saint Katherine was unable to play its scheduled game against Vanguard on Wednesday due to a positive test result. There are only three other games currently scheduled for certain on Westmont’s schedule – away games against NCAA Division I opponents Cal State Northridge (Nov. 25) and Pacific (Dec. 4), as well as a home game on Dec. 12 vs. Antelope Valley. The Warriors are awaiting on decisions to be made at both the national and conference levels before filling out the rest of their schedule. In filling out its schedule, Westmont will only play against teams who will be testing for COVID-19 prior to all athletic contests. Westmont, who is ranked third in the NAIA by Basketball Times, will look to extend its program-record streak of six-straight national tournament appearances. The Warriors will also hope to win the GSAC regular season title for a second-straight year for the first time in program history. Due to COVID-19 precautions, no fans will be admitted to games until further notice. email: mwhite@newspress.com

‘We as a country need to let our veterans know that they’re always in our hearts’ TROOPS

Continued from Page A1 hygiene products, toothbrushes/ floss/toothpaste, Q-tips, flashlights and batteries, instant hand and foot warmers, slippers, T-shirts, boot socks, towels, canned goods and non-perishables, soccer balls, colored pencils, laundry detergent, ziploc bags, DVD movies, board games, books and magazines. Ruth Kunkle was among the volunteers helping pack, and has been involved in We Support the Troops, Inc. for a number of years. Her husband, Jim Kunkle, was a P-38 fighter pilot who fought German Luftwaffe over Nazioccupied Europe. He earned a Distinguished Service Cross (one step below the Medal of Honor) for downing an enemy aircraft as he was shot down during a dogfight. Now, he’s widely known in the Valley for his heroism and for meeting notable public figures such as Paul Allen, the cofounder of Microsoft, and President Donald Trump. “I have a special place in my heart for veterans,” Mrs. Kunkle told the News-Press. “I think that we as a country need to let our veterans know that they’re always in our hearts. “This is especially true at Christmas. We have veterans overseas that never even get a letter, much less a package.” Kay Reid was another volunteer at the Christmas packing. “I just love being able to do a little something, so anything we can do,” she told the News-Press. To donate to We Support the Troops, Inc. and help send supplies overseas to soldiers who need it, visit https://www.wesupport-the-troops.org. Volunteers prefer mailed checks, as donating actual items can make the job of packaging and fitting everything inside the boxes difficult. In addition, there are some restricted items such as pork products and aerosol

products. Donations can be mailed to: P.O. Box 915, Santa Ynez, CA, 93460. Each package that gets delivered has a letter inside from We Support the Troops, Inc. “So many of our countrymen and women seem very removed from the war,” it reads. “We know that you who are taking the battle to the enemy make our secure life possible… What you do may not be obvious to some, but it is to those who wish to destroy us.”

A group of 187 USPS boxes filled with everyday household items destined for U.S. military personnel stationed all around the world are ready to be shipped out at the Veterans Memorial Hall in Solvang.

BRAVO, Roseanna Marie (Casper)

Roseanna Marie (Casper) Bravo, 78 of Santa Barbara, CA passed away on 11/03/20 after a brief battle with cancer. Roseanna was born in Wilmington, DE on July 28, 1942, daughter of the late Anthony and Inez (Ciaffi) Casper. She was retired from Robinson’s where she worked for 30 years. Roseanna was a longtime (over 50 years) member of the Santa Barbara Loyal Order of the Moose Lodge. She loved her soap operas (back in the day!), astrology, thrift store shopping and time spent with family and friends. Roseanna will be lovingly remembered by her daughters; Gina (Martin) Bell, Deanna (David) Hearth and Nicole Armstrong, her grandchildren; Angelina Bernal and Hayden Armstrong; her sisters, Frances Freid and Mary Anne (Francis) Leski, and her nieces and nephews. Her husband, Alexander Bravo, her brothers, Ronald and Norman Casper, and sister Lillian McFarland predeceased her. In keeping with the wishes of Roseanna there will be no funeral services. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to St. Jude or the American Cancer Society in Roseanna’s name. There is something about losing a mother (grandmother) that is permanent and inexpressible - a wound that will never quite heal.

MARSANGO, Frances Dianne Frances Marsango passed away on October 16th, 2020 at Alto Lucero now called Channel Islands Post Acute at the age of 87. She had her last diet coke and passed shortly after. Frances will be remembered for the love she had for her grandchildren. She spent many an hour watching them when they were young and the family needed help watching them. Frances had a love for gardening and her animals. She had a green thumb. Her countless animals were birds, cats and dogs. She always had one, two or all three at once. She is pictured with her loved Parrot named Rover. Frances was preceded in death by husband Vincent Marsango, son Rick Marsango and grandson Brian Marsango Reginato. Frances is survived by her two sons and their wives, Steven & Cheryl Marsango and Dino & Rosemary Marsango and her stepson Richie Durbiano as well as her 4 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren.

PLACK, Erika Erika Plack passed away as peacefully as she lived on October 10, 2020 in the presence of her children, while residing at Belmont Village of Burbank. Erika, the youngest of four children was born in Hollywood, California on March 20, 1929, the first day of spring. Erika is survived by her children Heidi Matthews, Peter Edwards, Jeff Edwards, Anni Atkinson, Tony Edwards, 12 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. Erika and her family moved to Santa Barbara in 1930 where she attended Santa Barbara High School and Santa Barbara City College. She became an X-ray Technician at Cottage Hospital, and married Peter Edwards on December 2, 1950. They raised 5 children while living on Las Tunas Road in the foothills of Santa Barbara. On August 23, 1986 Erika married Alvin Plack and as Erika liked to say, “I lived happily ever after.” Erika and Al traveled for many years together while remaining involved in their many activities. She was an avid backpacker, baker and tennis player. Erika was a member of the Santa Barbara Art Association and served as its president in 1980. She was best known for her oil landscape paintings and exhibited her paintings at the De Silva Gallery and the Arlington Gallery. Erika was one of the founding seven members of the Oak Group who painted landscapes along the California coast as well as the Channel Islands. The Oak group raised money for the Nature Conservancy with art shows portraying the vanishing landscapes in the Santa Barbara area. Erika also enjoyed lifetime friendships with her high school sorority friends. Her greatest joys were her children and her garden. She would spend countless hours nurturing a beautiful garden at her home in Santa Barbara. In her last five years she enjoyed many Sundays visiting the La Canada Descanso Gardens. Erika’s humor and joy for life will be greatly missed.

HERSMAN, David R. My beloved husband of 59 years left me on November 8 to join our Lord and Savior in Heaven. He was born in Youngstown, Ohio on September 2, 1938 to Ralph and Teresa (Schwellinger) Hersman. His loving baby sister, Kathryn was born in 1942. After graduating High School he joined the Army; then spent a short time working in the steel mills. He grew tired of that very quickly. He came to California in 1959 and vowed to never live where a palm tree could not grow. He went to work for the telephone company where he met his future wife, LaDene. We moved to Santa Barbara where we started our family by welcoming a daughter, Kathleen. Dave applied to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff ’s department and was hired as a Deputy in 1963. He at last found his dream job. He attended every school and class that was offered and excelled in all of them. When he had enough tenure, he took the Detective’s test. He got the promotion and was off and running. At this time, we moved to Solvang where we welcomed our second child, a son we named Mark. As time went on, he progressed through the ranks. He made Sergeant, Lieutenant, and ultimately, Commander. He attended the FBI academy and taught criminal law at Allan Hancock College for five years. Upon his retirement, he was honored by notables from President Clinton, the FBI, Santa Maria Police Department and Guadalupe Police Department. The honors that meant the most to him were the ones given by his colleagues and co-workers. He felt that he had worked thirty-five years for the finest department in the land. After his retirement in 1998, he enjoyed fellowship with his longtime friends, Kent Doyle, Tom Gee, Norm Horsley and others. They could be seen playing disc golf in Waller Park and then having coffee at the “A” Street Cafe. Dave and LaDene were long time members of Lutheran Church of Our Savior where they enjoyed doing volunteer duties and building wonderful memories of fellowship with their church family. Dave was preceded in death by his Mom and Dad and sister, Kathryn. He is survived by his wife LaDene; son, Mark (Amy) Hersman; daughter Kathy Grimm (Donald Grimm Jr.); grandchildren, Rob Lester, Jake Lester, Matt Lester, and Audrey Hersman; and his brother-in-law Don Hawkins. He is also survived by step granddaughter Jessica Gray (Jordan) and step grandson Donald Grimm III (Kendra) and one step great grandson, Julian Gray. Due to the Covid 19 virus, there will be no funeral. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Good Samaritan Shelter or any charity of choice would be appreciated.
