Goleta to provide more COVID-19 relief
Folk & Tribal Arts Marketplace features RoHo Goods
Council sends letter of support of new Central Coast region By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
More COVID-19 relief and financial assistance will be provided to small businesses and individuals in Goleta. The Goleta City Council authorized the city manager to allocate funds for the following: up to $15,000 to rental assistance and working with homeless service providers; $200,000 from the General Fund for immediate COVID-19 relief efforts; $100,000 for the Memorandum of Understanding between the cIty of Goleta and the Santa Barbara Foundation; $50,000 toward the United Way’s Low-Income Individual Assistance Program; and $50,000 toward an emergency rental assistance program for tenants who earn up to 80% of the area median income. “There’s been a lot of talk about the next 20 years and it occurs to me that for a lot of our residents, and particularly for people who
are small business owners, they’re just trying to figure out what they’re going to do for the next 20 days,” Council member James Kyriaco said in the council’s special meeting on Thursday. The motion passed by a 4-1 vote, with Council member Roger Aceves as the one dissenting vote. “We just spent over two hours talking about what dire financial need we are in,” he said. “We need revenue. I am not questioning these programs, I am not questioning that we have extreme needs… “One, we can’t afford it, and two, we’re not being strategic.” Mr. Aceves said he believes all communities should be rowing the same boat and working together. In response, Mr. Kyriaco said, “We have a little bit of a different viewpoint about whether we can afford to do it versus whether we can afford not to do it.” Mayor Pro Tempore Kyle Richards supported the motion, Please see GOLETA on A8

RoHo Goods made its debut at the Folk & Tribal Arts Marketplace at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History on Friday.
By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
Another pop-up shop made its debut at the Folk & Tribal Arts Marketplace, this time bringing a slice of Africa to Santa Barbara. RoHo Goods partners with talented artisan groups all across Kenya who create intricate, colorful products such as beaded leather sandals, cowhide bags, African beaded jewelry, Binga baskets, reusable gift bags made out of African fabrics, keychains, coin purses and more. While each product is unique and handmade, there’s more to RoHo than the material things. RoHo staff is currently working with 400 Kenyan artisans, 95% of which are women, and they ensure fair pay for the work the artisans do and send their children to quality schools in the area. The idea for RoHo was a result of Caleigh Hernandez falling in love with a pair of sandals. She moved to East Africa after college and worked for several nonprofits in Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. “I was ready to move back to the states,

but I saw that there were really beautiful products coming out of this area that needed a little bit of tweaking quality control wise and color adjustments in order to make them more feasible for a Western market,” RoHo Founder and CEO Ms. Hernandez told the News-Press. “Then I realized these people weren’t getting paid particularly well for the work they were doing. “So, it’s our commitment to support our artisans in that way and ensure they’re receiving what they deserve.” Ms. Hernandez and her team provided the artisans a 50% increase in wages above industry standard, and continue to provide scholarships for their children. This is RoHo’s fourth year at the Folk & Tribal Arts Marketplace, and Ms. Hernandez said it’s their favorite event every year. However, COVID-19 threw a wrench into business. “It’s been an incredibly tough year for small business, that’s for sure,” the founder said. “We had to get pretty creative because a number of our products were not able to get shipped from Kenya when Kenya initially closed its borders, which meant that a lot of Please see market on A8

Largest commercial sale in downtown area By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
The property at 1001 State St. currently occupied by Amazon has been sold to London-based investment firm Global Mutual in what was the largest true commercial property sale ever in the downtown Santa Barbara commercial business district. According to a press release, Radius Commercial Real Estate partnered with CBRE to sell the property, which was listed at $38.4 million and sold close to the asking price. Radius executive vice president Austin Herlihy told the News-Press that his company teamed up with CBRE to give the property international exposure. The team that sold the property consisted of Mr. Herlihy, his Radius colleague Chris Parker, and CBRE’s Dan Riley, Austin Wolitarsky, and Simon Mattox. Mr. Herlihy told the News-Press that he and his team got more than 10 offers for the property and more than 100 interested parties.
He explained the high level of interest, “I think we did a great job marketing the property and selecting the buyer for our client. However, an asset like this, in this location sells itself.” The building is 48,564 square feet and was formerly occupied by the department store Saks Fifth Avenue. Between 2018 and 2019, the property underwent a massive $20 million renovation to turn it into creative office space for current tenant Amazon. In the press release, Mr. Herlihy called the property’s sale “a real statement of confidence in the local economy despite the pandemic.” He added, “It’s no secret the downtown corridor has taken some hits over the past few years, but we’re continuing to see the positive signs of renewal and movement that will bring State Street back to a high level of prominence and vitality.” email: jgrega@newspress.com

Sullivan Goss 12th annual sale features work of local artists By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

n a year gone topsy-turvy, one tradition has held fast at Sullivan Goss-An American Gallery on East Anapamu Street: the 12th annual “100 GRAND” exhibition and sale, featuring 108 quality works of art for $1,000 or less.

ARIES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; You may find that things are much lighter than they were the past couple days, Aries. This is a good time to let your physical body take a rest and let your mind and fantasy world take over. Take a hot bath and soak for a while. Relax your brain and detach from your duties and obligations. Tread lightly and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry so much about what you need to do tomorrow. Concentrate on today. TAURUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A large weight should lift from your shoulders today, Taurus. The air has started to clear, and the winds of communication have started blowing again. Listen closely to the buzz in the air. You can learn a lot by tuning into other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fantasies. Make sure you keep an open mind and open heart. Discuss your latest achievements. You will have something important to learn. GEMINI â&#x20AC;&#x201D; People may be abrasive today, Gemini, but you will find after careful assessment that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean any harm. More than likely they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully informed. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re acting on misinformation. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely to be a cloudy haze in the air. Everyone will have an opinion on the best way to go about tackling an issue. Rely on your own cunning to cut to the core of the problem. CANCER â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t criticize the situation until youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come up with a better solution, Cancer. Be creative. You can accomplish much if you approach the situation confidently. Pessimism wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help find a solution. Relax and let your intuition guide you. Feel free to speak with confidence and strength. Perhaps the most fanciful-sounding answers will be the most ingenious solutions. LEO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t criticize the situation until youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come up with a better solution, Cancer. Be creative. You can accomplish much if you approach the situation confidently. Pessimism wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help find a solution. Relax and let your intuition guide you. Feel free to speak with confidence and strength. Perhaps the most fanciful-sounding answers will be the most ingenious solutions. VIRGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Your emotions are soaring, Virgo, and you should feel free to indulge in your greatest fantasies. Take a break from reality for a while. Let your inner child play. You should enjoy a greater self-confidence that you can use effectively to influence other people. Beware of anyone who asks you to make a solid +*#!2 +1$)"$commitment today. They may not
exactly have your well-being in mind. LIBRA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reward yourself with two desserts today, Libra. Take a bubble bath. Share your fantasies with others and express yourself fully. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like you have to say yes to every favor that is asked of you. Save some of that nurturing energy for yourself. Feel free to help others in need, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it at the expense of your emotional and physical bank account. SCORPIO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The weightiness of the past few days seems to be lifting. You will find a slight breeze building that will help fuel your fire, Scorpio. By building a solid foundation, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve created a reliable launching pad from which to take off. Communicate what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned with others. Allow your opinion to be heard. A great deal of useful information will be exchanged. SAGITTARIUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Now that you have a solid grip on your situation, unexpected things may come along that change the rules again, Sagittarius. It may feel like the chair you just got comfortable in has suddenly been pulled out from under you. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get angry. Just realize that this is probably a sign that you need to move on. Keep things new and exciting. Share your thoughts and ideas with others. CAPRICORN â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Use gadgets and electronic devices to make life easier today, Capricorn. Why take the time to chop food by hand when you can use the food processor? Realize that there is most likely an easier way to tackle any task. If something seems too hard, ask for advice how to do the job more quickly and efficiently. Information exchange will play a big role in your day. AQUARIUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Be careful of the information that comes your way today, Aquarius. People may make unwarranted claims and false accusations. The day has a dreamy, innovative quality to it that asks you to venture out on a limb. If all your chores are taken care of, feel free to go exploring mentally or physically. Just make sure that you take things with a grain of salt when conversing with others. PISCES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Maintain an air of detachment, Pisces. Feel free to delve into your fantasy world and let your emotions carry you to another realm. Today is one of those days when you might come up with a new invention that could become the next must-have item for every kitchen in the country. Let your imagination take you away. Share your lighthearted mood with others.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Everyâ&#x20AC;Żnumber in the codeword grid is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;codeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 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.

Gauchos struggle in second half in loss to Cal Baptist
Gauchos aim to remain unbeaten with rematch at Loyola By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER
UCSB takes its first road trip of the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball season today, although it will be going over familiar territory. The Gauchos (3-0), who beat Loyola Marymount (2-3) 69-58 on Sunday, will play the Lions in a rematch at 2 p.m. at Gersten Pavilion in Westchester. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to have mental toughness and be locked into a game plan to beat someone twice,â&#x20AC;? senior guard JaQuori McLaughlin said. He sat out the season opener with a mild muscle strain but played 37 minutes in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against LMU. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I worked on my conditioning over the summer and I feel I can do whatever coach wants me to do,â&#x20AC;? McLaughlin said. His 19-point performance against the Lions improved his season average to 14.0. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also handing out 6.0 assists per game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;JaQuori is a big-time talent,â&#x20AC;? UCSB coach Joe Pasternack said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His ability to not only score but to make the right read in a situation is what makes him so special.â&#x20AC;? The Gauchos have also gotten a potent one-two punch up front with 6-9 junior Amadou Sow (16.0 points) and 6-10 Miles Norris (11.7). â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was our first real test of the season,â&#x20AC;? Norris said of the Lions.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a good team, and now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get ready to play against them again on Saturday.â&#x20AC;? UCSB had to out-shoot LMU 48% to 30.5% to overcome the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 46-27 dominance of the backboards. LMU rebounded 24 of its own misses. Its two beefiest players got the Lionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s share, with both recording double-doubles. Senior Eli Scott (6-5, 232 pounds) had 31 points and eight offensive rebounds (12 total) while sophomore Keli Leaupepe (6-6, 248) added 14 points and 11 rebounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This guy Eli Scott is a monster,â&#x20AC;? Pasternack said of the returning AllWCC first-team guard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to figure out what to do with him. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a mental advantage on us.â&#x20AC;? LMU struggled to make its outside shots at the Thunderdome, sinking just 1-for-14 from the three-point line. The Lions do have a pair of accomplished three-point threats in 6-2 junior guard Joe Quintana (42.9%, 11.4 points per game), and 6-7 wing man Dameane Douglas (41.7%, 11.0), who was a WCC All-Freshman Team pick last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already played a Big 10 team (Minnesota) twice, they beat a Southern Utah team that swept Montana â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the best team in the Big Sky â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and they beat Long Beach State by 20-something points,â&#x20AC;? Pasternack said of the Lions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hitting their stride right now whereas that game was our first test.

made 12-of-15 shots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tyler Austin and Tristan (Lloyd) both played well off the bench,â&#x20AC;? Boucher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ajay (Singh) had a great second half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can say that we have the same team as last year, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re such a different team in many aspects. Having Jordan Spaschak and Justin Bessard move on, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still trying to figure it out, like many teams are, with so few games.â&#x20AC;? The Warriors, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had two futures also canceled, are not scheduled to play again until its Golden State Athletic Conference home opener against Vanguard on Jan. 9. School officials are looking to schedule another game before then, however.
For 20 minutes of Friday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s UCSB womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball home opener against California Baptist, things looked promising for the Gauchos. Then came the second half. Behind 26 points from center Caitlyn Harper and 17 from point guard Ane Olaeta, the Lancers stormed past UCSB for a 85-75 non-conference victory at the Thunderdome. Cal Baptist improved to 6-0 while UC Santa Barbara dropped to 0-2 following Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 102-45 loss at No. 11 UCLA. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make enough shots and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to guard,â&#x20AC;? UCSB coach Bonnie Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a game of runs and they made the last run and we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t answer it. But there were a lot of good things, a lot of really good things. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Defensively, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be better. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to lock people up and play better position defense.â&#x20AC;? One positive for the Gauchos was the play of redshirt senior guard Doris Jones. The Oakland native poured in a team-high 23 points â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which included 17 in the first half. Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; performance in the first half, especially in the second quarter, helped the Gauchos overcome a 12-point deficit to lead 36-35 at the break. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a playmaker,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a capable 3-point shooter, obviously, and a good midrange (game) and can get to the rim. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to see her get more in rhythm and play more comfortably and with more confidence.â&#x20AC;? Senior point guard Danae Miller also had a strong game with 20 points, which included going 5-for-15 from 3-point range. UCSB finished with 10 3s in the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You make 10 3-pointers, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to win the game,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to practice more, we need to practice more. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be good to get four (days) next week, which will be good.â&#x20AC;? Cal Baptist scored 50 second-half points and finished shooting 50% (31-62), which included 10 of 29 from beyond the arc. UCSB finished at 38% (28 of 73), which included a 10-for-28 performance from 3-point range. Henrickson pointed out how tough Harper was to guard on the outside for Gaucho center Natalia Bruening and on the inside for guard Lauren Lee when Bruening was on the bench with foul trouble. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nat couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guard her at the 3-point line and Lauren couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guard her in front of the rim,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that Lauren couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guard her, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mismatch for her. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to pressure the ball. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing the ball handler with our hands down. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A huge part of post defense is ball pressure... Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming one pass and in, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fair to either Lauren or Nat, but especially Lauren, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mismatch for her (against the bigger Harper).â&#x20AC;? UCSB returns to action Friday at home against Santa Clara. Tipoff is scheduled for 5 p.m.

KENNETH SONG / NEWS-PRESS
Senior guard JaQuori McLaughlin, who sparked UCSBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 11-point basketball victory on Sunday over Loyola Marymount with 19 points and six assists, will lead the Gauchos into todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rematch at the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Gersten Pavilion.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, Saturday will be much more difficult, playing the same team twice.â&#x20AC;? Although the sample size and size of the first two opponents were both small, the Gauchos rank among the national team leaders in eight categories. In spite of Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game, that even includes rebound margin, where they rate 10th at plus-15.7. UCSB is also first in both assists per game (24.7) and assist-toturnover ratio (2.55), second in scoring margin (49.7 points), fifth in field-goal percentage (58.2%), sixth in scoring offense (94.7 points per game), 11th in field-goal percentage
defense (33.9%) and 13th in scoring defense (55.0). Their bench has been productive, with two sophomore transfers scoring double figures: 6-4 guard Josh Pierre-Louis (11.0) and 6-3 guard Ajare Sanni (10.0). Robinson Idehen, a 6-10 senior, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t far behind at 8.3 points with a team-best 8.0 rebounds per game. The Gauchos figure they need all hands on deck to beat LMU again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re an aggressive team,â&#x20AC;? Norris said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to respond to that.â&#x20AC;? email: mpatton@newspress.com
Westmont falls after sending thriller into two overtimes By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER
New Westmont College basketball coach Landon Boucher had his debut delayed by nearly a month with five canceled games, but the Warriors gave him some extra time on Friday. The Warriors hit game-tying shots at the end of both regulation and the first overtime before succumbing to Concordia College of Irvine, 10199, in double overtime at Murchison Gym. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud of our guys for never giving up,â&#x20AC;? Boucher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Concordia is a really good defensive basketball team, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud of our guys for scoring 99 against a team like that, even if it was two overtimes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really athletic and
12-of-25 shooting, put the game into a second overtime, 92-92, by stealing an inbounds pass and scoring with nine seconds on the clock. He also had six steals and four assists. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He never gave up,â&#x20AC;? Boucher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bram had a 6-foot-8 guy on him the whole game, but he found ways to get into the key and make plays.â&#x20AC;? But Concordia led throughout the second overtime. Carrasco got the Warriors within a point, at 9897, by getting a goal-tending call on his driving shot. The visitors pulled away, however, by making 3-of-4 free throws in the next 26 seconds to go with a Westmont turnover. Ajay Singhâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tip-in at the buzzer left Westmont two points short. Singh finished with 27 points, 23 of which came after the first half. He

we found ways to find open guys for shots. I anticipated it being a close game like this, which is why I scheduled this game.â&#x20AC;? Boucher, a Westmont graduate who earned his masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree at Concordia, has taken over from longtime coach John Moore. The COVID-19 pandemic, however, has kept the Warriors off the court except for an exhibition game against Cal State Northridge. Cade Roth sent the game into the first overtime, 79-79, by beating the shot clock with a long three-pointer. He finished with 15 points and a team-high eight rebounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was clutch, but I expect Cade to make big plays like that,â&#x20AC;? Boucher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that good.â&#x20AC;? Abram Carrasco, the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading scorer with 31 points on

‘The council goes on record supporting separating us from Los Angeles County’ GOLETA
Continued from Page A1 but added that he wishes more can be provided for the residents and businesses. “I’m always struck by the totals,” he said. “When I see that $50,000 in emergency rental assistance with awards totaling up to $500 each, that’s only 10 people we’re going to help with that. Maybe more, but still, it does feel like our impact is small.” In other news, the council unanimously voted to authorize Mayor Paula Perotte to send a letter of support to Gov. Gavin Newsom of the County Board of Supervisors’ request to remove Santa Barbara, San Luis Obisop and Ventura counties from the Southern California region and create a new and separate Central Coast region for the regional stay at home orders. “I think we take our direction from county health,” Mr. Aceves said. “They’re the ones that are charged with monitoring and keeping us safe and it would be in line for us to respond now. “The bottom line is the council goes on record supporting separating us from Los Angeles County.” Mr. Richards expressed
similar sentiments. “I’m very swayed by the fact that it’s our public health officers that have written this letter and I really do put a lot of credence into our Public Health Department and our team that’s looking out for the community,” he said. Members of the council did express proceeding with caution, however, saying that they don’t want to reopen too quickly and cause a spike in cases or open the door to residents of other counties such as Los Angeles to travel to Santa Barbara to escape the shutdowns. Lastly, the council unanimously authorized the transfer of funds currently set aside in reserves for CalPERS unfunded accrued liability in the amount of $170,000 and OPEB unfunded accrued liability in the amount of $333,500 to the city’s Section 115 Trust. They also directed staff to pursue new revenue and debt financing options, return with a CIP Funding Plan, further analyze Unassigned Fund Balance and return with a recommendation for a CIP project funding reserve level. email: gmccormick@newspress.com

Team hand sewed thousands of masks, supported artisans with profits market
Continued from Page A1 our artisans were food insecure.” Approximately 1,500 Kenyans were food insecure as a result of COVID-19, so RoHo had to brainstorm ways to help without any products to sell. Luckily, the demand for handmade, stylish face masks got higher and higher by the day.
Ms. Hernandez and her team hand sewed thousands of masks here in the U.S. and sold them for $15 a piece, with profits supporting the artisans. They successfully kept those same 1,500 Kenyans food secure for nearly four months in the worst of the pandemic. The Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History purchased well over 100 of the handmade masks as well and sold them to its customers.
“We’re just grateful to have this continued partnership,” Ms. Hernandez said. “It was amazing we were able to support each other.” Now, RoHo can get things shipped again and business is picking back up for the holidays. The pop-up will be open through Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the museum’s courtyard. Customers can also browse the collection online and order from there, at rohogoods.com. According to RoHo’s mission, customers who buy its products are making a social impact,
empowering women and advancing education, rather than simply buying a beaded necklace or a pair of shoes. “Our customers are people who understand all our products are handmade, they’re unique, and they see that as a benefit,” Ms. Hernandez said. “We have a book of all our different artisan groups, because we really want you to see and know the faces behind our products. “It just makes Kenya seem a little closer.” email: gmccormick@newspress.com

LOCAL FIVE-DAY FORECAST BOYAN, Norman J. Norman J. Boyan was born on April 11, 1922 in the Bronx, N.Y. He died peacefully at home in Santa Barbara, CA on December 2, 2020. He was a wonderful husband and a devoted father, grandfather and great grandfather. Norman was an accomplished educator, a warm and caring friend, and a skilled athlete who enjoyed baseball, basketball, golf, and cycling. He was a regular participant in exercise activities at the Valle Verde Senior Living Community, well into his 90s. A great storyteller with a wealth of tales, he had an amazing memory, an infectious laugh, and an outgoing and warm-hearted personality, with a smile always dancing around his mouth as he spun his stories. He was a man of great integrity, patient and kind, who truly enjoyed life and his family. Both of Norman’s parents were deaf and did not speak, making it all the more remarkable that he grew up to become such a learned and erudite man. His parents were of Italian heritage on his mother’s side and Irish on his father’s side. He was schooled in the Bronx and Mount Vernon, NY, graduating from A.B. Davis High School in 1938 (at age 16) where he was very active in sports and student activities. He attended Bates College in Lewiston, Maine, where he met his future wife, Priscilla, who was also attending Bates. At Bates he was active in student government and sports, Editor of the school paper, and was chosen for Phi Beta Kappa. He joined the Army in 1943 but still graduated with a BA in History and Government and married Priscilla that same year. He received his commission as 2nd Lt. in September 1944 and his oldest son, Stephen, now deceased, was born at Boca Raton, Florida, Air Base while he was on active duty. He spent his service years at bases in the U.S. and after discharge in January 1946, he entered graduate study at Harvard University, receiving an MA in History in 1947 and an Ed.D. in Educational Administration in 1951. Norman spent 44 years in education, from 1946 to his retirement in 1990, including positions as research assistant, high school instructor, Assistant Principal at Mineola High School and Principal of the Wheatley School (both on Long Island, NY), Director of Student Teaching and Internship at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Associate Professor at Stanford University. From 1967-1969 he worked in the-then U.S. Office of Education as Director of Educational Laboratories, and from 1969 until 1980 he was Dean of the Graduate School of Education at the University of California at Santa Barbara, retiring from UCSB as Professor of Education Emeritus in 1990. He was very involved in educational literature, serving as contributor to and editor of many publications, including the first Handbook of Research on Educational Administration, published in 1988. His professional activities included several stints as visiting professor or visiting scholar at schools around the US and around the world, and consultant and accreditation services to a large number of school districts, colleges and universities. He leaves two sons (Craig and Corydon), two marvelous daughters-in-law (Barbara and Debra), four wonderful grandchildren (Ivy, Omar, Haley, and Andrew), four great grandchildren (LaJune, Aria, Chalandra and Josephine), and a close niece (Keren). He was predeceased by his wife, Priscilla, his son Stephen and his daughter Patricia. Norman’s life embodied the essence of the American dream, celebrating the central importance of love, family and hard work. He and his wife Priscilla enjoyed a long, beautiful and well-lived life. They met more than 80 years ago, and spent 77 years as loving husband and wife. When she passed in November he followed her almost immediately, with only 12 days separating their departures. They are together again, as they always were, a beautiful love story for the ages.
FOSS, Mary Ann (Byron) April 23, 1935 – November 25, 2020
Mary Ann was born April 23, 1935 in Chicago, Illinois and on November 25, 2020 God called for her and the angels quickly swooped her up to Heaven. She attended Santa Barbara High School where, at the age of 17, she met Gates Bradbury Foss, the love of her life. They were married on February 13, 1955. And so began a life dedicated to her husband, six children who adored her and numerous foster children. She was also an amazing mother to her daughters-in-law who were so incredibly fortunate to have her and to her grandchildren she was the epitome of what it means to be a grandmother. Mary Ann was a beautiful soul and a strong woman of faith in Jesus Christ, who set the ultimate example of how to love. She was a mother to all who were blessed to know her. Later in life she enjoyed an extensive career in real estate, where she made many lifelong friends and was “MA” to all. Mary Ann is survived by her loving husband of 65 years, Gates Bradbury Foss and their children and grandchildren Gib (Briana and Alexa), James and Stacey, Scot and Jill (Gavin and Camryn), Jeff and Harmony (Jordan, Ashlyn and Rhodes), Merideth and Mike Broadley (Emily), and Bridget (Zachary), as well as bonus children and grandchildren Fernando and Heather Gonzales (Max, Jillian and Matteo), John and Tina Blakeman, and Sharlene Mullen.

CORDERO, Margaret Thersa Bilotta
Margaret Thersa Bilotta Cordero was born in Queens, New York on March 8th, 1932 and passed way peacefully in her sleep at her Santa Barbara home on November 22nd 2020, with her beloved husband (and high school sweetheart) Leonard and daughter Patti by her side. Margaret was a Wife, Mother, Aunt, Grandma and Great Grandma. She came to Santa Barbara in 1940 via station wagon with her parents and 3 siblings when she was 8 years old – and she never left! Margaret attended Hardy Elementary school, La Cumbre Jr. High and Santa Barbara High School class of 1949. She never missed a class reunion. Once a Don always a Don. While in high school she worked at Harwins Jewelry Store and did a short stint with the SB school district cafeteria before becoming a full-time mom to her 2 children, Lenny and Patti. She was a wonderful mother, but she was best known as everyone’s Aunt Margaret. She was the best sun worshipper ever and loved going to Hendry’s Beach with the locals. She enjoyed going to concerts in the park for music and was always the first one out on the dance floor! Fiesta was one of her favorites in Santa Barbara were she always enjoyed the parade but, don’t break the cascarones eggs in her hair, and the best was dancing away at Jill’s Place afterwards. She was a world traveler with her husband Leonard, brother Joe and his wife Peggy along with many other friends and family. Margaret was an avid bowler, she enjoyed poker night with her family and enjoyed trips to Las Vegas and Laughlin. The one thing she did consistently was camping! The whole family would go religiously every summer to Lake Nacimiento. All the Super Bowl parties and Sunday dinners with her Italian pasta which she so enjoyed cooking for everyone will be amiss without her. She never missed a birthday, anyone’s, as sending a card was her favorite part. Oh, how she enjoyed her Andre Champagne, back in the day! She loved puttering with her potted outside plants and she had over 100 of them. She loved her fire in the fireplace, all year round! She never missed a sporting event for her Grandchildren; she was their number one fan. And her highlight in the late ‘50s was meeting and being photographed with Elvis Presley who told her “I like your hair” she never changed her hair style after that and wore her pony-tail proudly from then on. Margaret is preceded in death by her parents Joseph Bilotta Sr., Margaret Renga Bilotta, sister Justine Pykor and brother Joseph Bilotta. Margaret is survived by her husband of 68+ years Leonard Cordero, son Lenny Cordero (wife Christine) daughter Patti Sell, brother Bob Bilotta, grandchildren: Ashleigh (fiancé Lance), Justin, Zachary, Cody (fiancé Jessica) great-grandchildren: Cooper and Carter and grand-dog: Fresita. There are also numerous nieces, nephews and loads of cousins. Until we can celebrate Margaret’s life together – feel free to pour yourself your favorite beverage, go outside in the sunshine, hoist said drink and DANCE! Margaret will be beside you smiling and dancing! No services are planned at this time.
