‘A little taste of Fiesta’

‘Bigger than life’ Iconic social writer Beverley Jackson leaves behind her legacy of adventure By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Vibrant Montecito resident Beverley Jackson knew how to tell a story. In fact, she was revered for her comical accounts about meeting celebrities and movie stars in the 1970s and ’80s. The adventurous writer and traveler documented those years and the social scene of Santa Barbara in the News-Press for 25 years. Often referred to as the doyenne of the city, Ms. Jackson was very involved in her community, from working on committees to throwing parties with hundreds of people in attendance. The beloved resident died

Thursday morning from natural causes. She was 91. The writer with an active life developed a strong admiration for Chinese culture, becoming an expert and adamantly researching and collecting Chinese clothing and art. One of her most famous books, titled “Splendid Slippers: A Thousand Years of an Erotic Tradition,” went into great detail about the former practice of binding the feet of Chinese girls. She wrote seven books, and her “By the Way” column featured numerous big names, such as Montecito chef Julia Child, Ollie Carey and Florence Chadwick. Ms. Jackson, a Los Angeles native, grew up in Beverly Hills and was an avid traveler, visiting Please see jackson on A2

Mariana Contreras greets customers who ordered food at the Our Lady of Guadalupe mercado in Santa Barbara on Saturday.

Our Lady of Guadalupe serves up authentic Mexican cuisine to celebrate Fiesta By JORGE MERCADO NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The line outside the Our Lady of Guadalupe mercado wasn’t quite as big as in years past, but people from across the city of Santa Barbara were still as eager as ever to pick up and enjoy their authentic Mexican food they’ve come to expect during the week of Fiesta. “It’s definitely strange and different. The ambiance is different. Normally there is music blasting and people having a good time,” Mariana Contreras, office manager at the parish, told the News-Press. “But hey, we’re making the best of it and trying to help everybody have that spirit that they always have and keep them cheerful and happy.” In a normal year, the Old Spanish Days celebration would peak during the final Saturday of the annual event drawing hundreds to the Eastside church. Every year, the parish hosts a Fiesta mercado, featuring tons of games, live music, raffles and, of course, traditional Mexican cuisine. Due to the current pandemic, however, the Fiesta event could not go on as planned. For a while, the church didn’t think it would be able to sell food either. “There was a good chance that this wasn’t going to happen,” Ms. Contreras said. “And then at the last minute, because we’re waiting on some to see if we could actually do it, we found out that we could, so we scrambled as fast as we could to get what we have now.” And what Our Lady of Guadalupe recreated was a success. “It obviously isn’t going to be the same as past years, but it’s

Beverley Jackson, known as a legend of Santa Barbara who threw large parties and wrote about the social scene of the city during the 1970s and ‘80s, died early Thursday morning from natural causes. She was 91.

Latest COVID science discussed during webinar been busy all day. We’ve been going through people left and right,” Ms. Contreras said. “And we’ve been really lucky that most people have been really patient with us and really kind.” Ms. Contreras added that it was a bit more hectic in the kitchen this year, as the amount of volunteers allowed at one time were limited due to the coronavirus. Still, she was thankful for everyone who was able to make the event happen. “We’re definitely really grateful for all our volunteers. I mean, it’s been hard because it had to be a limited amount, but we are super grateful and very blessed to have the people that we asked to help

out,” Mr. Contreras said. Normally, the church would hold the annual event from Friday through Sunday, but with the church holding mass outside on Sunday’s now, the event concluded Saturday this year. The annual Fiesta mercado accounts for nearly 60% of the parish’s yearly revenue, according to Erika J. García, business manager for the church, as all proceeds from auctions, food, drink, and other vendors goes directly toward maintenance and service of the church. And, while the church won’t be making as much as in years past, they are still appreciative for the business they received during

these three days. “It is something that is really needed, because we depend on this income, especially, because we use it for all of the ordinary expenses so this was a really, really important thing to do. We’re glad that we’re able to do this, even though is on an infinite smaller scale, but at least we’re able to sell and make a little bit of money,” Ms. García said. The menu of years past was cut down significantly, with the church only offering pozole, birria, tamales and tortas. But, people still came out in droves to pick up their pre-orders or order upon arrival. “We just wanted to find some Please see FIESTA on A4

The UCSB Economic Forecast Project, hosted by Dr. Peter Rupert, held another webinar on Thursday, with a big focus on the latest science regarding the novel coronavirus. Dr. Lynn Fitzgibbons, an infectious disease expert from Cottage Health, was invited to speak at the webinar and provided plenty of insight on COVID-19 data and how people are critically analyzing it. “Data remains critically important now and it’s going to really inform both population level, as well as individual level decisions, I think for the long term with regards to this,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. She said that looking at just case

count numbers is not an effective way to view the virus. The reason being is that every county, every city even, is administering tests to different people. A more objective metric, according to Dr. Fitzgibbons, would be looking at hospitalizations. And, even more objective, would be deaths. “We are delayed perhaps by two weeks or three weeks (with hospitalizations). And then, of course, if we’re following deaths, tragically that may be the most objective metric of all, and indeed probably is, that of course is a very, very late metric that is far too down the road for our health officials,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. Despite this, she said that hospitalizations are her preferred metric to analyze this pandemic. Please see webinar on A4

igh school athletic directors may feel like quoting Shakespeare as they size up their COVID-delayed world. They are now in the winter of their discontent. Cramming more than nine months of sports into a fivemonth calendar that now starts in December has presented daunting challenges in all corners of Santa Barbara County. “I would have never imagined or prepared for this situation,” said Abe Jahadhmy, who’s entering his 17th year as the A.D. at San Marcos High School. But Jahadhmy could also quote another British icon, Winston Churchill, while describing the collaborative response of the county’s team of rivals. This will be their finest hour. “I am so proud of my colleagues for stepping in, being so cooperative and caring for all the students by doing everything possible to make this into a positive situation,” he said. Pat Cooney, who’s starting his 11th year as A.D. at Carpinteria High, said they’d been steeled for this difficult time by dealing with such recent disasters as the Thomas Fire and the Montecito debris flow. “The CHS Warriors have survived fire, floods, drought, incredible winds and the passing of pillars in the community,” he pointed out. “Each required adjustments and the support of many. “Luckily, CHS has a staff of great coaches, a supportive administration and passionate members of the athletics community. It’s going to take an incredible team effort to successfully navigate the uncharted waters of COVID-19.” Charting contests, and even practices, has become a logistical nightmare for Cooney and his colleagues. The boys and girls teams in the sports of water polo, volleyball, golf and tennis normally compete at different times of the year, but they’ll have to play concurrently in 2021. That creates a dilemma for a coach like Mark Walsh, who heads up the water polo programs for both genders at Santa Barbara High. Brian “Chuckie” Roth coaches only girls water polo at San Marcos, but he also runs both the women’s water polo and

On to the ‘ship Foresters advance to NBC World Series championship game By MITCHELL WHITE NEWS-PRESS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

WICHITA, Kan. — The Santa Barbara Foresters have certainly earned a chance to add another trophy to the case. Santa Barbara (29-4) defeated top-seeded Cheney, Kan. Diamond Dawgs 5-1 on Saturday at Eck Stadium, advancing to the National Baseball Congress World Series championship game on Monday night. With the win, the Foresters will now look to clinch their eighth NBC World Series title. As has been the case since arriving in Wichita last week, Santa Barbara was powered by pitching on Saturday. Coming off a combined no-hitter on Thursday, the Foresters’ arms were again impressive on the mound. Kyle Luckham picked up the win, tossing 5 2/3 innings of scoreless baseball. He allowed just two hits and struck out four while not issuing a walk. Caden Monke and Sean Mullen did not allow a run in relief, while Peyton Palette allowed the only run of the contest in the ninth. The two-out, run scoring double by the Dawgs marked the only run the Foresters’ staff has allowed in three World Series contests. Santa Barbara’s offense was powered by

varsity contests played back-to back. “It’s definitely been a process, but I think as a league we’ve been doing a good job of understanding the complexities at each school and how to make sure we’re doing what’s best for the studentathletes.” The problem is magnified, however, at smaller schools such Please see SPORTS on A5

Casey Dykstra, who joined the team as a pitcher but has since been roaming the outfield for the Foresters. Dykstra tallied three hits and drove in three, while Ryan Holgate added a pair of hits. Santa Barbara registered just six hits in the game, including only one hit from the top half of its lineup. “It’s a different guy who steps up and gets it done,” said Santa Barbara coach Bill Pintard following the win. “That’s the sign of a great team.” Pintard described his team’s approach in Wichita as “very business-like,” praising his assistant coaches and players for rising to the occasion. Jace Jung opened the scoring for the Foresters in the bottom of the first. He drilled a double to right field, advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored when the throw went into left field. Sean McLain led off the second inning with a walk, advanced to second on a wild pitch and scored on a RBI single from Dykstra to make it 2-0. Pintard said it was important for his team to get out to an early lead. “We didn’t want them to get any kind of momentum,” Pintard said. “They had fans, they’re from out here… we couldn’t let them get any momentum.”

Santa Barbara added a pair in the fourth, as Noah Cardenas scored on a passed ball to make it 3-0, before Dykstra struck again — this time with a RBI triple — to make it 4-0. Dykstra’s RBI single in the sixth made it 5-0 before Jackson Glenn’s run-scoring double in the final inning got the Dawgs on the board. Perhaps the most important part about Saturday’s victory is that now Santa Barbara has to be defeated twice in order to be eliminated from the World Series. “If we had lost, we would have had to play three more games and go undefeated,” Pintard said. “I think we had the pitching to do it, but that’s what would have had to happen.” The Foresters will take on the winner of the Hutchinson, Kan. Monarchs and Houston, Tex. Express contest on Monday night. The team has one goal in mind, the skipper said. “I know we’re going to play hard, and we’re going to play to win,” he said. “We didn’t come all the way out here to sightsee, we came out here to win a championship.” Monday’s game is tentatively scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m. PST. The game will be streamed live on the NBC World Series’ YouTube channel. email: mwhite@newspress.com

The menu of years past was cut down significantly, with the church only offering pozole, birria, tamales and tortas, but people still came out in droves to pick up their pre-orders. The annual Fiesta Mercado accounts for nearly 60% of the church’s yearly revenue.

Customers have a chance to ‘get a little of that Fiesta spirit’ FIESTa

Continued from Page A1 things that were simple to do, not that simple, but were also hits. Tamales, tortas and pozole are all big hits and we also wanted to have different kinds of meat also not just pork,” Ms. García said. According to Ms. García, they sold more than 5,000 tamales throughout the weekend, about 400 tortas and they even sold out of the pozole on their first day Thursday. “We have heard a lot of good things and, for people, at least this is something that they were looking forward to and at least they were able to kind of taste a little taste of Fiesta,” Ms. García

said. “And if we could make a couple of people happy, a couple of families, it’s worth it.” The staff made a lot of people happy, including Brent Lindstrom, of San Roque. Mr. Lindstrom has been coming to the church for years during this time, and has always enjoyed the cuisine. “We come down here every year, sometimes two or three times just to eat the best food in town. They have the best tamales, a great crowd, so we heard it was open, so we came down,” Mr. Lindstrom said. While his favorite items were not on the menu this year, Mr. Lindstrom said he was still just excited to get the tamales and “get

a little of that Fiesta spirit.” Doug McFarling, of Santa Barbara, also came down to Nopal Street once he knew that the church was still serving food. “I mean the food here, it’s been our favorite every year since we discovered it. It’s authentic and the people are so friendly and we enjoy supporting the local community. It’s awesome,” Mr. McFarling said. “The food is always excellent so I’m glad they’re doing it. I’m glad they’re able to raise some money this year, but it’s different circumstances.” Mr. McFarling added that he has been coming to the church during the week of Fiesta since he was in his early 20s. He is now over 50 and brings his kids.

“I missed the sound and the music and the kids dancing and the games,” Mr. McFarling said. While he’s disappointed that the event could not happen this year, he understands that it is the right call given the circumstances. He also added that this might make next year’s festivities even better, should they occur. “I think people will have a certain amount of pent up interest and excitement for things like this here as well as at the Mission and the courthouse and De la Guerra Plaza and so yeah I think people will be extra excited and fired up,” Mr. McFarling said.

‘I’m now seeing some signal that a plateau may be underway’ webinar

Continued from Page A1

“I like to think that hospitalization data, while it is certainly delayed from an index event, is really perhaps the most accurate and closest to real time metric that we have, that is objective and reliable and reflective of our community’s condition,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. Looking at Santa Barbara County data, she said that both hospitalizations and Intensive Care Unit numbers rose during June and July, both of which may soon plateau. “I think that I’m now seeing some signal that a plateau may be underway at least looking at... the hospitalization data,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. While those are possibly stabilizing, she added that we are seeing the effects of the spike on the county’s current death count. In the month of July, Santa Barbara County announced 28 deaths. Currently the county has reported 69 deaths. “We are now feeling the true effect of that in our day-over-day, week-over-week number of deaths here in our state,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. She also discussed the quarantine period someone is put in after finding out they are COVID-19 positive. People who are positive, on average, feel symptoms within five days of contracting the virus, however, “the likelihood of getting infectious virus from someone declines after

symptoms begin.” As studies have continued, doctors have noticed that people who have mild or no symptoms have no more infectious virus, or virus they will pass to others, after 10 days. In patients who have to go to the hospital, their infectious virus runs about 15 to 18 days. An important note, however, is that even if these people have no more infectious virus after 20 days, they can still have the RNA from the virus for up to 12 weeks and test PCR (polymerase chain reaction) positive. “The PCR in these patients who have recovered can remain persistently or intermittently positive. And just to corroborate this, there was a study that looked at 285 people who were persistently positive, many weeks out they were still positive and 126 of them are actually in that category we’ve heard anecdotes about where people thought well they’ve been reinfected they have it again, they have more symptoms and they’re PCR positive,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. “What they found was there wasn’t a single new infection amongst these people who were persistently positive weeks out again, just emphasizing this idea that even if people are PCR positive weeks after they have this virus, they do not seem to be infectious.” This is why the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention no longer recommends retesting people 10 to 14 days after infection because “they’re no longer infectious, but they may still have a positive PCR.” There are also no new studies showing how

long antibodies last nor their effectiveness, which is why those tests are not recommended. “While it may be interesting for them or their physician, it should not dictate whether or not that person is, for example, put in a frontline position and exposed to the public or not,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said. “I will just emphasize that for most people with COVID-19 illness, isolation and precautions can generally be discontinued 10 days after symptom onset with resolution of fever for 24 hours and improvement of their other symptoms.” Additionally, she shared a new study that had just come out Thursday, which discussed whether or not people who were asymptomatic could spread the disease. According to the data, both those who had symptoms and those who did not had the same amount of viral load that could be spread. As a result they would still be “highly infectious.” That’s where masks come in and help possibly curb that spread. Dr. Fitzgibbons cited a local case study about two Missouri hairdressers who were infected with COVID-19 and, over an eight-day period, interacted with 139 customers. “Of these 139 client, there were no transmissions, and so the authors of the article from the (CDC) proposed that a universal face covering clearly made a difference,” Dr. Fitzgibbons said.

‘We are all eager to make things work so kids can have their sports again’ SPORTS

Continued from Page A3 as Carpinteria where coaches double up in more sports. “It remains to be seen whether we can build a plan for them to continue or if we have to hire new coaches,â€? Cooney said. “The situation could force some tough decisions for those that coach and some real change in the makeup of the staff.â€? Santa Ynez A.D. Ashley Coelho is putting a lot on the plate of one of her own coaches: Ashley Coelho. She serves as the head varsity coach for track and field and also assists the girls basketball team. She even coaches the wide receivers and defensive backs on the Pirates’ junior varsity football team. “Spring season is going to be very busy for me, but if I’m busy that means kids are playing sports which is a huge positive,â€? Coelho said. “As of now, I plan to coach all three sports this year, like I did last year. “We are all eager to make things work so kids can have their sports again. This will benefit their physical, mental and emotional well-being.â€? The calendar change creates issues even for those who coach just one sport. “They’re going to have to adjust their work and home calendars to fit the new calendar,â€? Bishop Diego A.D. Aaron Skinner said. “This year’s mantra is going to be something regarding flexibility‌ not only from an injury-prevention standpoint given the long break that these athletes have had from competition, but also from a coach’s, athlete’s and family’s perspective.â€? Practices and even a few contests will begin just before Christmas break in some sports. Volleyball will be the first to start, with the boys opening play on Dec. 12 and the girls on Dec. 19.

Football workouts can begin on Dec. 14 with the first Friday night games set for Jan. 8 (Lompoc will open on Thursday, Jan. 7). “For football specifically, each individual needs 10 practice days before he can compete in a scrimmage or a game,� Skinner pointed out. “If they have plans to travel for a long period of time during the holidays, they may not be eligible to play in the first scrimmage or game.� Spring sports will bring their own set of challenges, especially with transportation. “We’ll have upwards of 18 sports competing at that time and getting them to all of their away contests can be a little head-scratching at times,� Heil said. “As we approach scheduling the league contests, we’ll need to utilize as many days of the week as we can to help alleviate transportation issues. “We also need to be cognizant of the fact that we won’t be the only school needing transportation.� Multiple-sport athletes will face some tough decisions now that their seasons are either overlapping or being played concurrently. Although it affects more athletes at smaller schools, it will also have repercussions at bigger schools. “Keep in mind that the Channel League schools up north are smaller than Santa Barbara,� Jahadhmy said. “It’s a guessing game right now if they can field some sports or lower-level teams. “The schedule will probably keep changing as we get the actual numbers.� He is encouraging his coaches to allow their athletes to play two sports at the same time “if they can work it out.� Those who get to play two sports will still face time-management issues, Cooney said. “CIF maintains the rule that any athlete is allowed a maximum of 18 hours of training per week for all high school sports including

clubs outside of school,� he pointed out. All schools will be dealing with overcrowded athletic facilities, although Carpinteria faces the most complicated situation. The school is just starting a $4.5 million makeover of its gymnasium, and it won’t be completed until next year. The project will include remodeled locker rooms, restrooms and showers, as well as new bleachers, scoreboards, backboards, technology and lighting. “We will borrow Carpinteria Middle School in the meantime, which will put serious constraints on the availability of gym time,� Cooney said. “The Citrus Coast League proposed playing boys and girls matches on the same day which would force start times of 1:30 p.m. “Tennis courts face similar issues with daylight. We also use the Carpinteria City Pool for practices and games so finding a workable balance for girls and boys programs

along with the community programs will be quite a task.� Field space during the spring will be at a premium at all schools with football, track and field, soccer, lacrosse, baseball and softball all being played at the same time. “In the spring, I can see — other than track practice — the stadiums only used for games,� Jahadhmy said. “We are looking at renting gyms, fields and using local junior high and elementary school fields.�

But the timing couldn’t have been better for the recent completion of Santa Barbara’s Peabody Stadium, as well as the turf-field installations at Lompoc and Santa Ynez. All of the Channel League’s stadiums now have artificial surfaces, making them available for maximum use. “That could prove critical come the months of February, March and April, with rain as a possibility,� Heil said. “But space in general will be at a premium for us.

“We’re going to need to be creative when it comes to practices knowing that our stadium could be used four days a week for games.� But the toughest change of all, Jahadhmy said, is that the situation is “ever-changing.� “We get prepared for a certain situation, then it changes a week or day later,� he said. He’s just hoping they’ll have a vaccine for that come winter.

gUEST OPINION

War to destabilize and destroy America

T

here is an old saying in politics that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” Hence, America finds itself in the throes of an insurrection by way of an unholy and disparate alliance of anarchists, socialists and globalists taking aim at faith, family and country. What is at stake is nothing less than the fate of America. Regarding faith, Princeton professor Robert George published “Solzhenitsyn’s Prophecy,” relating to a speech at Harvard by the internationally renowned victim and critic of Russian communist tyranny, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Professor George recalls that Solzhenitsyn spoke at a time when “Anti-Americanism was flourishing both abroad and at home. Many Americans — particularly young Americans — had lost faith in their country, its institutions, its principles, its culture, its traditions, its way of life. Some proposed communism as a superior system; many suggested what came to be known as ‘moral equivalency’ between American democracy and Soviet communism.” George continues that “Solzhenitsyn viewed the West’s

That is, aggression, as the fruit of the free enterprise and the nuclear materialism, consumerism, family were made for one another. self-indulgent individualism, On the other end of the spectrum, emotivism, and narcissism — in in the absence of tribes and clans, a word, the immorality — into or the nuclear family construct, which we had allowed ourselves the social order comes undone to sink. Solzhenitsyn by way of isolated and warned America and the fragmented individuals West that we had become (Antifa) who drift until too focused on rights and they drown in sea of needed to refocus on nihilism and narcissism, obligations.” ala, Solzhenitsyn’s He concluded that this prophecy, marking the is what happens when a end of their civilization. nation forgets God.

These rights imply obligations to God and fellow citizens, resulting in a free people who are the embodiment of a civil society. Conversely, totalitarian governments rely on propaganda rather than truth, and force versus freedom. That is because the ideology they proffer doesn’t work, nor does it make sense, as it runs counter to human nature and common sense. Karl Marx prescribed the following: “Take away the heritage of a people and they are easily persuaded” and “Keep people from their history and they are easily controlled” and finally, to tie all this up together in a nice little bundle, Marx also wrote “My object in life is to dethrone God and destroy capitalism.” Control and destroy by way of attacking and undermining heritage, history, capitalism and faith in God.

Extremists use BLM for radical agenda

‘B

lack Lives Matter” started as a protest against members of the police, centered on the killing of George Floyd in police custody. As it gained attention and momentum, it was hijacked by black and white extremists to fund and pursue a much more radical, national agenda. For evidence, we must take careful notice of the words of the most powerful people who are now leading the charge. A prominent leader of the “Black Lives Matter” organization is Greater New York area president, Hawk Newsome. In an interview, he gave this description of the objectives of the BLM organization. “If the U.S. does not give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it.” He added, “Violence is sometimes

necessary.” He went on: “I Many millions of immigrants want black liberation and of all races and ethnicities black sovereignty, by any from the 20th century and means necessary”. their now-adult children had We cannot ignore his no connections with slavery, words. “Sovereignty” is: “The nor do they consider they have attainment of supreme power benefited from it. or authority” or, “Supreme As politicians around the and independent power or country cave-in to coercion, authority in government BLM demands grow.

If a civil conflict occurs, it will not be a war of opposing military armies. This will be a conflict of opposing beliefs, opposing cultures, opposing racial groups, opposing age groups and opposing definitions of civil rights. This will be a war of propaganda and coercion, demonstrations, riots, anarchy, violence and destruction in the streets. This is not only a black American movement. White Americans are active participants in achieving the goals for transformation of American society. The actions for dismantling American society, start with defunding or dissolution of police forces. Please see agenda on A7

letters to the news-press Let’s listen to each other

B

onnie Donovan’s Trumpian chirping in the July 19 News Press (“Let’s talk truth about COVID-19, BLM, City Council”), much like my brief diatribe in response, contributes little to the thoughtful reconciliation required to lift America out of the mindless morass it’s mired in, thanks, in no small measure, to the intractable Daves and Bonnies of the world. Things won’t be getting better until we really begin listening to each other. Hopefully, Jim Hightower’s words of wisdom will lighten the load for Ms. Donovan. “Yeah, white men just don’t have any power these days. Unless you count Wall Street, corporate boardrooms, the Supreme Court, the Forbes List of the 400 richest Americans, nearly all legislative bodies, most courts, RNC convention delegates, university trustees, big foundations, the church hierarchy and Fox News.” Dave Moore Carpinteria

We need the Electoral College

I

could not disagree more with Frank Sanitate (“Our democracy could use some reform,” Voices, June 28). His scheme to abolish the Senate and Electoral College would be a disaster. The reason our forefathers created the Electoral College was to prevent larger, more populous states from disempowering states with a lower population. Do you really want New York and California to run the country without serious opposition? This would no doubt be a Democrat dream come true until by some twist of fate a conservative majority emerged in which case they wouldn’t like it. No thank you! Mr. Sanitate’s proposals would effectively disenfranchise 48 states leaving them with little or no power. This is short-sighted, cynical and at heart a power grab. Nathan Post Santa Barbara

Government programs turn blacks into an underclass

A

re blacks any better off after the last five months of protesting and civil unrest? Of course not. Violence in most major cities has nearly doubled since the tragic death of George Floyd. The biggest problem facing blacks in America is not inequality, or systemic racism, or

even our less-than-perfect justice system. Government programs have proved to be ineffective and even destructive to the blacks. A permanent underclass has been created due to overzealous government largess. One program alone — Aid to Families with Dependent Children — has nearly destroyed the black family. Nearly 75% of black children today are born without the benefit of a father in the home. Children raised in fatherless homes are far more likely to grow up poor, drop out of school, use drugs and eventually engage in criminal behavior. The Left has created a grievance industry that blames white racism for every lack of good minority outcome. Using identity politics, they have been highly successful in creating a tyrannical conformity onto much of society. Disagree with them and their new orthodoxy, and you’re a racist, sexist or a Nazi. Most, including our institutions, just conform to avoid the accusation. We currently practice a paternalistic treatment of blacks, a system that treats them as victims who need big government programs to assist them and protect them from the dominant white racist society. Sadly, many blacks have accepted this version of America, but blacks do not need to be treated as victims. They need the individual pride that comes from raising a family and providing for it. They need meaningful and rewarding work by competing in the labor force. Until the coronavirus hit in March of this year, the black unemployment number was at an all-time low of 5%. We need a government that can provide an economic environment that can quickly reproduce that achievement. John Hammerel Santa Barbara

Initiative would help schools, critical services

A

s Gov. Newsom and local officials chart a “new normal” for California, we’re all facing tighter budgets. With unprecedented budget shortfalls looming, we cannot afford to make devastating cuts to critical services like education and public healthcare. That’s especially true in communities of color where there’ve been decades of disinvestment. We need bold solutions that invest in all Californians. We need the Schools & Communities First initiative. This measure, which qualified for the November ballot after garnering 1.7 million signatures of support, will reclaim $12 billion a year for schools and critical

services, like public hospitals and fighting homelessness, by closing corporate tax loopholes. For decades, a fraction of California’s largest corporations and wealthiest investors have gamed the system while we lose out on critical resources. Schools & Communities First closes those loopholes while protecting homeowners and renters, small businesses, and agriculture from any changes. Our analysis shows that 94% of the revenue would come from only 10% of the most under-assessed commercial and industrial properties in the state – meaning a fraction of California’s largest corporations would finally pay their fair share. We can’t afford corporate tax loopholes at the expense of our schools and communities anymore. Pam Flynt Tambo Vice President Administration League of Women Voters of Santa Barbara

Fearless Grandmothers lack specific solutions

I

n the July 26 News-Press, there was an article about The Society of Fearless Grandmothers (“Climate justice takes center stage in shoe strike”). They want to work on climate change. Of course, the first thing they want to get rid of is fossil fuel. They lined their shoes up on the steps of the Santa Barbara County Administration building. Those shoes are made from petroleum products as well as their clothes, food and things they use daily. If you criticize something, you should have a solution. If you don’t, then you are part of the problem. Where is their list of things they do to protect the environment? The Indians made their clothes from natural materials. They used tar on the beach to caulk their boats. The swabs used to test COVID-19 are made of spun polyester, a by-product of fossil fuels. Also, California could use the revenue from oil production. China is doing far more to destroy the environment and climate than California. I challenge these grandmothers to come up with a list of things that we as the general public can do that will really make a change! The elected officials cannot come up with solving the homeless problems or how to revitalize the downtown area. How could you think they could solve the climate problem? Kika Hutchings Carpenteria

It is time for all of us to make our voices heard agenda

Continued from Page A6

But their objectives go much further. The greater aim is the formation of a socialist state in America, achieved through social disorder that will lead, eventually, to an authoritarian socialist regime. Think about socialist dictatorships in Venezuela, in Cuba. Think about China, a Communist Party dictatorship, where 1.2 billion people are under constant observation

and control by the central government that uses social media, facial recognition and a nationwide social credits system, to determine an individual’s standing and future prospects, controlled by their level of obedience to the government. There is a silent majority of all ethnic and racial groups in America, who do not want a breakdown of society. Nor a greater collapse in the economy than is already occurring. Nor dissolution of local police

departments, the last line of defense against anarchy. Nor defunding of the military. Nor social divisiveness pitting neighbor against neighbor. Nor violence, destruction and death in the streets. Nor growing militancy exemplified by armed militias appearing on streets. Nor the imposition of radical socialism. It is time for all of us to make our voices heard to make elected officials stand up for our interests and protect the nation from descending into conflict and chaos.

SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS

DAWSON, Edwin Allister

Completing nearly 90 years on this earth, Edwin Allister Dawson passed quietly on Friday, July 24th at home in Santa Barbara, CA, surrounded by his loving family. Edwin was born on October 4th, 1930 in Santa Monica, California to Gordon Warren and Margaret Mary Dawson. Edwin was the eldest of four children, followed by his sisters Margaret, Barbara and Kathleen. Edwin graduated from Saint Monica’s High School in Santa Monica and from the University of San Francisco in 1952 where he was a proud team member of the famed 1951 undefeated Dons Football team. After graduation from college, Edwin served as a commissioned officer in the Army during the Korean conflict, serving most of his duty in Japan. Following his service tour, Edwin attended UCLA while studying in the School of Engineering. While at UCLA Edwin met his future wife Judith Anne McKone and they were married by Monsignor O’Flaherty at Saint Monica’s Catholic Church on June 7th, 1957. In 1959, Judith and Edwin settled on the hill in Santa Barbara where the raised their three sons, James Gregory, Daniel Warren and Brian Edwin. Edwin worked for four companies in Santa Barbara, but his favorite companies were American Machine & Foundry and Santa Barbara Research Center, where he worked for 27 years as a Senior Contracts Administrator. Edwin is survived by his wife Judith; son Gregory, his wife Shelly, grandchildren Keileen Patricia and Jameson Mathew; son Daniel, his wife Sandy, grandchildren Taylor Valdivia and Jason James; and son Brian and his wife Vickie, grandchildren Marlena Eve, Gus Lars and Cora Sandrine. His sister Margaret having passed before him, Edwin is survived by his two sisters, Barbara and Kathleen. In keeping with his request, there will be no memorable services. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Our World Underwater Scholarship Society (OWUSS), a foundation created by his lifelong friend Glen Egstrom.

MOORE, Charles D. “Doc”

Charles D. “Doc” Moore, PE, rose from this earthly home to his heavenly home on July 4, 2020. A longtime resident of the Santa Ynez Valley, Doc loved the Valley, and all its God given beauty, spending most of his last years at the home he loved so very much, in the care of his wife, Nancy, whom he loved even more. Born on a farm near Anniston, AL, on October 26, 1940 to Lewis and Lois Moore, Doc’s pioneering work in aeronautics helped send men to the moon and rovers to Mars; he and Nancy would eventually circumnavigate the planet in their own travels. The second of six kids, Doc would go on to advanced degrees from Jacksonville State University and USC. At Jacksonville, he noticed a good looking new gal on campus and announced to a classmate that “I’m going to marry that girl” before he even knew her name was Nancy. In 1965, Doc was invited to work in Huntsville, AL alongside Werner Von Braun on the static firing of the Saturn 5 rocket, and in a sad turn of events, Boeing would bring Doc to Cape Canaveral to join the investigation into the fire which killed the crew of the Apollo 1 mission. After the successful launch of the next Saturn mission, Martin Marrietta asked Doc to come to California to work with the Titan and Peacekeeper programs at Vandenberg AFB. Foreseeing the collapse of the USSR and massive defense budgets, Doc was on the team that would ultimately merge Lockheed and Martin and go after new endeavors, such as the high-speed trains of England, Europe, and Japan. By the ‘90s, Doc was working on programs ranging from Mars Rover to Starlight satellites. Doc retired from aerospace in his late 50s, and he soon launched a second career working with the wranglers at the Alisal Guest Ranch. Working for minimum wage and green fees, he loved teaching kids to fish and became a favorite of visiting celebrities because he simply treated them like ‘normal’ people. His family laughed and knew that, in fact, Doc simply had no clue who they were. A lifelong Alabama football fan and former Eagle scout, Doc had many interests outside of aerospace. When his family was young, he loaded and unloaded the station wagon a thousand times for beach, ski, camping, and vacation road trips. Requests for pit stops were inevitably met with the words, “got to keep mooching,” Doc-speak for ‘oh no, we’re not stopping.’ Easter hunts were “egg-offs,” and by dawn of Thanksgiving day, the Christmas albums were blasting. He loved life and he loved people. He was fun, intelligent, principled, and a great Christian man who set an example for the rest of us. A constant volunteer until he was sidelined by a stroke in 2007, Doc worked with Rotary and Kiwanis clubs in Littleton, CO and Solvang, CA, and served many years as an elder, deacon, and board member of SYV Presbyterian Church and SYV Preschool. He was especially proud of his last bit of service, his appointment to the Selective Service board by President Obama. Doc will be so greatly missed by his wife of 56 years, Nancy, and his sons, Michael Moore of San Francisco and Stephen Moore of Rocklin, CA. He leaves two grandchildren, Matthew Moore and Savannah Moore, both of Roseville, CA. Doc had five brothers and sisters all of Alabama. Harlie (deceased ), Doyle(Jenny), Geraldine(Mike), Charlotte(Donnie), Mike L.( Patti), and many well-loved nieces and nephews. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to honor Doc’s memory may contribute to the Friendship House of Solvang, the Santa Ynez Valley Presbyterian Church, or the charity of your choice. Because of the Covid virus, a private family memorial service was held at his home.

PAUL, George

1928 - 2020 George was born Nov. 16th, 1928 in a German Village in Romania, known as Gross-Alisch. He was the third child of Stefan and Sara Schuller Paul, having two older siblings, brother Stefan and sister Sara. The Pauls were farmers and were ethnic Germans whose ancestors established the small town 800 years prior and retained their German language and customs. During WWII, George and his childhood friend saw the Russian Army coming over the hills toward their town; fearing they would be captured they were able to race after and hop on a fleeing villager’s wagon as the horses that were pulling the wagon galloped by. At 15 years old, on foot, with no jacket and just the clothes on his back, he traveled with the other evacuees from other villages. They eventually all jammed into train cattle cars, fleeing to Hungary. For 6 weeks they all endured poor conditions, starvation and constant strafing by fighter planes. They eventually arrived in Linz, Austria, around his 16th Birthday. Unfortunately George would never see his parents again and couldn’t return to his village. His family was trapped in Romania after the war ended. It was closed off to the outside world when the Communists took over. His family lived a very poor and dreary life under communist rule until they were allowed to immigrate to Germany after the collapse the USSR in the mid nineteen eighties. He lived in Austria for 10 years before immigrating to Canada with a suitcase, $60, and didn’t speak the language. There he found work on a farm doing back-breaking work picking tobacco. He met his future wife Elwira Neumann who lived in Michigan and was visiting Canada. They were married in Canada in 1957 and settled in Detroit. They moved to Santa Barbara, California in 1963 with their two boys to eventually settle in Goleta, CA in 1965. George worked for Val’s Painting and Drywall as the superintendent for 25 years before he retired in 1988. He lived a very full life. His hardships during the war never affected his positive outlook, and to live life in the present. The beloved “Opa”(as he was known to his grandchildren) was an amazing active presence in their lives. He was a fun and extraordinary grandfather in ordinary daily excursions with the four grandkids. They have great memories of him whether he was taking them to the airport to watch the planes take off, going to Goleta beach or trips to Anna’s Bakery. Hiking, bike riding and gardening were his passions. His incredible health provided him the means to hike in our nearby mountains including some of the trails that lead up to the top of Camino Cielo. He rode his bike frequently well into his late 80s. He had a green thumb when it came to growing his vegetable garden and fruit trees. Music & dancing were a part of his life too; in fact, it was at a dance years after his divorce where he met Bobbie Piatt. Bobbie was his love and partner for 18 years They shared a vibrant relationship, had mutual respect for each other and enjoyed traveling on many trips all over the world. George was excited the day he became a citizen in the 1960s, and he was very proud to be an American and thought it was a privilege to to live in USA. He overcame his handicap of coming here with practically nothing, and not speaking the language with hard work, never complaining or expecting a handout to live the American dream. The family members will greatly miss him, he was deeply loved, and fostered many memories of laughter with him, along with his treasured influence on our lives, and fascinating stories of his homeland that we know as our family heritage. George was close to his family in Europe, and kept in contact with relatives by phone and travel visits in later years, and his sons continue these valuable family relationships. The Gross-Alisch village church by his childhood home rang the bells in honor of his passing, to which we are deeply touched by this beautiful arrangement to honor his 91 years of life.

SCHAAP, Gail Ann

MAC DONALD, William Richard, Jr. “Bill” On Friday, July 31st due to complications of dementia, the veil parted, and Bill crossed over to eternal life in the Love that was the Source of his own life. He died at home surrounded by his beloved family. Bill was appropriately born on the Feast of All Saints, November 1, 1941 in Pittsburgh, PA to Bertha Marie Mosurak and William Richard MacDonald, Sr. At the age of 13 he began working in drugstores and worked his way through Pharmacy School at Duquesne University. In his second year of Pharmacy School he met the love of his life, Alice Flecker. Four years later on July 10, 1965 they were married and moved to Chicago where Bill had been recruited to work for Walgreens. In 1968 he purchased Woodland Pharmacy in the Downers Grove Medical Center where he met his dear friend, Dr. Ronald Lorenzini through whom he and Alice would adopt their three children, Jim in 1971, Brian in 1972, and Heather in 1975. And the circle of family began to grow larger. In the bitter cold winter of 1977 they decided to move west where the climate was milder. A good friend suggested Santa Barbara. They made the trip to Santa Barbara, found a home and a job for Bill, returned to Chicago, sold the house and the business and in July moved the family to Santa Barbara. Bill bought Federal Drug in 1985. It was here that he began to fulfill his dream of a “Community Pharmacy.” The Federal Drug Family became Bill’s home away from home. He loved helping people and personal care and service were the hallmark of his life as a pharmacist. Bill loved that he has served five generations of families here in Santa Barbara. He didn’t make a distinction between work and play. Somehow, they both went together for him. He was a strong force of nature. He was confident, knew what he wanted and how to get it, which usually involved hard work. If he saw a potential in you he was relentless until you saw it in yourself. If you were hurting and he said everything was going to be ok, you knew it would be. Family was at the center of life’s meaning for him. He continually drew the circle of family larger with each new person he encountered. He was a lifelong Catholic and drew his inspiration from the life of Jesus whose inclusive model of love of others knew no boundaries. The only poem he remembered from his school days and liked to recite was one by Edwin Markham, “Outwitted.” He drew a circle that shut me out — Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout. But Love and I had the wit to win: We drew a circle that took him in! That is what his Faith was all about, a Love that draws the circle big enough to include everyone as family. Bill was preceded in death by his mother and father, and his two sisters, Mary E. and Pat. He is survived by his beloved wife of 55 years, Alice and by his sons Jim and Brian MacDonald and his daughter Heather MacDonald and the countless numbers that were family to him including his faithful canine companions, Toby and Timmy. Special thanks Dr. Robert Wright for his personal care and compassionate concern, to Dr. Alex Koper and Dr. Philip Delio, and to Assisted Home Hospice of Santa Barbara, especially Judy Darin. Special thanks also to Betty Calderon and Maria Arroyo who sat with him in the early stages and to Daniza Martinez who helped care for him in his final days. Burial will be private. A celebration of life will take place at a later date to be announced. Donations in his memory may be made to Hillside House, 1235 Veronica Springs Rd, Santa Barbara, CA 93105, or The Father Virgil Cordano, OFM Living Memory Fund at Mission Santa Barbara, 2201 Laguna St. Santa Barbara Ca. 93105

Gail Ann Schaap, 60, (nee’ Benson), adored and beloved wife of Tony Schaap for 36 years, passed away August 2nd at their home in Rancho Mirage, CA, after a courageous and valiant five-year battle with cancer. Born August 17, 1959 in Chicago, the youngest of four siblings, Gail grew up in Park Ridge, IL, before following her brother out to Santa Barbara, CA, at the adventurous age of eighteen. She was the delight and joy of the family: full of happiness, kindness, and loveliness. She had many friends and admirers and was voted “Most Beautiful” her senior year at Maine South High School, but she was equally loved for her inner beauty, wit and personality. She was one of the most caring people you would ever meet in life; she was unforgettable, and she is very deeply missed. Gail worked at Westmont College when she moved to Santa Barbara, and met a soccer player from the Netherlands, Tony Schaap. They fell in love and were married in May 1984, enjoying all the benefits of a SoCal lifestyle and eventually settling in Goleta, where they lived until May of this year. Gail also worked for fifteen years at Mission Industries of Santa Barbara, in an administration position. Her most rewarding and fulfilling role, however, was to become a Golden Retriever Mother, and over the years, raise five rambunctious puppies, in succession: Coco, Augie, Chester, Tula and Karlee. Gail is preceded in death by her parents, Paul and Beth Benson, and nephew, Chad Wilson. She is survived by her husband, Tony Schaap; sister-in-law, Jeannette (Rolf) Voorraad; two sisters; Joan (Gary) Jonland, and Holly Benson; a brother, Jonathan (Shelley) Benson; five nieces: Kristin (Clint) Fannin; Kathryn (Adam) Frost; Isabelle and Ingrid Jonland, and Jillian Benson (Jon Beyreuther); two nephews: Joe (Emily) Benson, and Mike (Christine) Benson; fourteen grand-nieces and nephews, and her faithful companion and dog, Karlee. The Celebration of Life for Gail is postponed due to the current national health directives; however, it will be announced as soon as there is no further threat to the safety and well being of family, friends and loved ones. Much love and appreciation to All who have reached out to Tony and family during this time. We want to thank all the doctors of Ridley-Tree Cancer Center for their devoted service to Gail. Memorial donations may be sent to: Cancer Foundation of Santa Barbara 601 W. Junipero Street Santa Barbara, CA 93105

DORIS J GILMAN

Sylvia Brickley Weller

Love, hugs and kisses, Gordon & family

1925 – 2020

Long-time Santa Barbara resident and mother of Mark Paul Brickley, Elizabeth (Betsy) Read Brickley-Adams, mother-in-law of Patrick T. Adams, and grandmother of Jackson Adams and Sturdy Adams, has died of natural causes. Sylvia’s paternal grandparents were Elsa Meyer and Heinrich Volkmann, she a concert pianist and he a transportation chief for the German rail system, honored by Kaiser Wilhelm, the last king of Germany, for his achievements. Her maternal grandparents, Frederick Nash Read of Virginia and Louise Ludlow Bryant of Ludlow, Kentucky, were descended from early families of this country. Her parents were Dorothy Read and Erich Volkmann. Her father was graduated from the University of Heidelberg and emigrated before the two World Wars. Sylvia attended Katherine Gibbs and held positions at Brown University, The Ringling Hotel in Sarasota, The American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and J. Walter Thompson in New York City. She married Paul Brickley of Minnesota, and their children were born in Rochester, where Dr. Brickley was a member of the Mayo Clinic Staff. In 1954 the family moved to Santa Barbara, and Dr. Brickley affiliated with the Sansum Clinic in the practice of Ophthalmology. Following her husband’s death, Sylvia attended City College and UCSB, graduating with honors in English in 1971. She joined Arthur Bromfield’s real estate office in Montecito (Sears) and combined real estate sales, travel and writing, and had a great life, by her own admission. In 1990 she married LeRoy Weller and lived on the beach in Carpinteria until his death in 2000. Together they cruised the globe. She was active in several community organizations including the Junior League and the Lobero Theater and three local private clubs. She enjoyed bridge and three reading clubs, and the rich variety of arts this community offers. With a Pat McClure-led group at All Saints by the Sea, she explored evolving trends in Christian theology as it responds to advances in neurology and physics. If she were writing this herself (she is) she would say that among the many gifts of this life, her loving children Elizabeth (Betsy) and Mark, grandsons Jackson and Sturdy, son-in-law Patrick, and those friends who helped her laugh and who nurtured her spirit top the list. So long, all dear ones, “I wait at the Gate.” In lieu of flowers, All Saints-by-the-Sea, The Lobero Theater, Sansum Clinic Research, and City College were part of her life. She was interested in a book fund for single mothers at City College, which the Foundation for SBCC’s CARE program supports.

Dr. Thomas William Hamilton Jr. peacefully passed away surrounded by his family on Thursday, July 30th, while listening to his favorite Frank Sinatra songs. Tom fought a courageous six-year battle with cancer. Tom was born in June of 1938 and raised in Evansville, Indiana along with his three brothers and three sisters. He graduated from Mater Dei High School as a standout athlete in both football and basketball. He later went on to play basketball for the University of Evansville Purple Aces – a team that won the NCAA Division II Championship in 1960. Tom would often be found sporting his Purple Aces apparel to support his Alma Mater. He earned his Medical Degree from Indiana University School of Medicine and became a Family Physician in 1970. That year, Tom and his former wife (Judith Smith) and their children moved to California where he completed his Residency at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. In 1985, he and his partners joined forces with Sansum Clinic where he would practice for the remainder of his career. In that same year, Tom married his current wife Jennifer Allen Hamilton. After 44 years of practicing medicine, Tom retired in 2014. His work was truly rewarding; he had the pleasure of treating multiple generations and watching his young patients grow up and start families of their own. Tom had an innate passion for helping others. Family was Tom’s top priority, both his immediate and extended family. He regularly traveled back to Evansville, Indiana to attend annual family reunions and catch up with longtime friends. One of his favorite things to do back home was to go to the Horse Races at Ellis Park with his brothers and sisters. Tom was an avid reader and well versed in many areas including medicine, spirituality and religion, nutrition, world history and biographies. You would think he read plenty of card playing books with the number of games he always seemed to effortlessly win against his family and friends. His passion for sports was eternal and contagious. He loved to share and teach this passion with his children, attending nearly every game. Raised as a religious man, he found joy and community in being a member of Santa Barbara Hope Church. You could find him wearing a bright blue shirt and an infectious smile, handing out name tags as the ‘Church Greeter’ on Sunday mornings. It is incredible to reflect on how many lives Tom impacted in a positive way; he had this way of making others want to be a better version of themselves. Tom had a genuine love for life and he sure did it right.

George is preceded in death by his father Stephan & mother Sara, brother Stephan (Stipins), sister Sara (Ziri). George is survived by his son Gerhard and wife Eva, his son Robert and wife Kim, and his Grandchildren, Brandon, Ryan, Joshua, and Renee.

Tom was preceded in death by his mother Thelma and sister Betty. He is survived by his siblings Bob, Allen, John, Margaret and Judy. Tom is survived by his loving wife of 34 years Jennifer, his four children Michael (daughter in-law Nancy), Angela, Matthew, Evan, and three granddaughters – Austin, Jordan and Madison.

His passing was on March 25th, however the circumstances of the COVID pandemic afforded only a very small gathering of immediate family at a graveside service. The farewell ceremony included a very personal eulogy from a family pastor who had met George previously. It was a beautiful service highlighting George’s life story, and where the song “I Could Only Imagine” was sung accompanied by a guitar. I know all who would have liked to have been there did not have a chance to attend, please know we heard how special the many people were in his life. You blessed him and he felt it... and we appreciate your hearts. We raise a smile to our loved one, who will always be remembered for his energy, jovial attitude, and kindness he spread to all. A memorial will be planned for a later date. For more information on the memorial e-mail gp642@ hotmail.com. Or you may call 805 683-1635 and leave a message.

With a heart full of compassion and kindness, Tom’s presence will be deeply missed by all those fortunate enough to know him. We would like to give a special thank you to Doctors Newman, Ransohoff and Suh for all of their help along the way. We would also like to thank the Hospice Team for all their support and assistance. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to The Ridley-Tree Cancer Center: Cfsb.org/giving-to-cfsb/ Celebration of Life to be announced at a later date.

Dedicated to helping others

Lindsey Leonard talks about leading the California Central Coast chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

L

indsey Leonard is excited about leading a team of angels. That’s how she describes the staff and volunteers with the California Central Coast chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association. Ms. Leonard is the chapter’s new executive director. “I was very attracted to working for this organization because the cause is so critical,” she told the News-Press last week at the chapter’s headquarters in Santa Barbara. “Right now, the number of Alzheimer’s cases across the U.S. is 5.8 million. That number is projected to increase to 16 million by 2050.” Ms. Leonard said the California Central Coast chapter is serving an estimated 2,800-plus families in Santa Barbara, Ventura and San Luis Obispo counties. “I’m very proud of the work that the dedicated staff at the Alzheimer’s Association do,” Ms. Leonard said. “They are in many ways angels.” And Ms. Leonard, the former executive director of the Santa Barbara-based Teddy Bear Cancer Foundation, stressed that the Alzheimer’s chapter is continuing its programs at 100% of their level despite the COVID19 pandemic. Support groups and other services are being offered online, and this year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s will take place in a modified form that will avoid large gatherings in one location. “There is no decline in the number of families that we are reaching and helping,” Ms. Leonard said. “The chapter has done a number of things, including providing virtual counseling and virtual support groups for our families.” She noted caregivers can log on for online support and that families can call a 24/7 hotline to obtain resources and get information. “We’re working remotely,” she added as she talked to the NewsPress during her first visit to the chapter’s headquarters on Chapala Street. The Santa Cruz native earned her bachelor’s in sociology in 2000 at UCSB. Afterward, she knew she wanted to help nonprofits. “Since I was pretty young, I always had a feeling that we should help others,” Ms. Leonard said. “I was really interested in helping children. I wanted to become a teacher originally as well as a social worker. I do have a teaching credential as well. I’ve never used it, but I have it.” After UCSB, Ms. Leonard worked from 2000 to 2009 for the United Boys and Girls Clubs of Santa Barbara County, then served as vice president of operations for the Boys and Girls Club of Santa Clara Valley in Ventura County. After that, she became the development director for the Santa Barbara Channelkeeper, an environmental organization. From 2012 to this summer, she served as the Teddy Bear Cancer Foundation’s executive director. In addition to her bachelor’s degree, she earned her master’s in education with an emphasis on organizational leadership in 2008 at National University, based in La Jolla. Ms. Leonard has used her education and experience to help others, and she sees the importance of doing so during the COVID-19 pandemic. “The Alzheimer’s Association supports a predominantly elderly population and their families,” Ms. Leonard said. “They are more vulnerable, now more than ever, during COVID-19.” She said that makes today an important time to increase the association’s visibility and strengthen its program to meet growing needs. Ms. Leonard noted that more than 59,000 residents and workers have died nationally from COVID-19 at nursing homes and other long-term care communities. She said the

“I’m very proud of the work that the dedicated staff at the Alzheimer’s Association do,” said Lindsey Leonard, the new executive director of the Alzheimer’s Association’s California Central Coast chapter. The plastic flowers behind Ms. Leonard represent various groups who participate annually in the association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Blue is the symbol for people who have Alzheimer’s or dementia; purple is for those who have loved a loved one to the disease; yellow is for those supporting or caring for someone with Alzheimer’s; and orange is for those who support the cause and a vision of a world without Alzheimer’s.

At left, the Promise Flower Garden faces on East Beach as participants in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s go along Cabrillo Boulevard. This year because of COVID-19, the Alzheimer’s Association is avoiding large gatherings and is encouraging people instead to walk in the neighborhood or area of their choice. Above, Assemblymember Monique Limón, D-Santa Barbara, holds the white Promise Flower, which represents the future first survivor of Alzheimer’s, as she leads the charge during the Walk to End Alzheimer’s.

Alzheimer’s Association is urging state and federal policymakers to implement new solutions addressing immediate and long-term issues affecting care facilities during the pandemic. As always, the California Central Coast chapter is working to help caregivers, families and patients. “Our goal is not only to provide resources to our families but help connect them with others through our (virtual) support groups, so they have the tools to care for their loved ones,” she said.

She discussed the plans for this year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s. The five walks include two in Santa Barbara County: Oct. 3 in Santa Maria and Nov. 7 in Santa Barbara, but in a modified manner because of COVID-19. Instead of walkers gathering in a single location, participants can walk wherever they want. “They might step outside their front door and walk in their neighborhood,” Ms. Leonard said. “They could be walking downtown. They could be walking on trails.”

She said the goal this year is to raise $750,000. “Our goal is not only to raise critical funds to further our mission, but also to be able to raise awareness,” Ms. Leonard said. “Our walkers will still be able to do this by putting on their purple shirt (the Alzheimer’s Association’s official color) and posting on social media that they are engaged in this activity. “The walk is everywhere, and we are really excited about it.” email: dmason@newspress.com

FYI The Alzheimer’s Association’s California Central Coast chapter is continuing to provide all of its usual services during the COVID-19 pandemic. The difference is that the work is being done remotely and through online platforms. And this year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s will take place in the neighborhood or area of your choice on Oct. 3 in Santa Maria and Nov. 7 in Santa Barbara. To sign up as a participant, team captain or sponsor, contact Executive Director Lindsey Leonard at lmleonard@ alz.org or go to alz.org/cacentral coast.

SOLUTION ON D3

HOROSCOPE ARIES — There could be a spat with a friend or social group this week. A difference in values or opinions could cause a falling out. A difference in values or opinions could cause a falling out. TAURUS —Ready to shine this week? You might want to make something public or perhaps promote an idea or message on social media. If so, be prepared for something unexpected to happen as a result. GEMINI — You could be a tad disillusioned this week as the truth about something you believe in gets shattered. An insight or a leading conversation could help you see things as they really are CANCER — There could be a tendency to make impulsive decisions this week, and since this influence is rather volatile, that is something you want to avoid. LEO — This week an event, conversation, or encounter could intensify feelings concerning a current issue. This might not be the best time for making wise decisions because there could be a tendency to act on the spur of the moment. VIRGO — You might need to be flexible at the start of the week because your plans may be disrupted. Just as you thought everything was going well, an unexpected opportunity, call, or piece of information could change everything. LIBRA — Things might be jogging along pleasantly enough this week when out of the blue an attraction could drive you crazy. An encounter could throw your usual routines into disarray. SCORPIO — You and another may not see eye to eye. It might take until the end of the week before you feel ready to reach out and make amends. SAGITTARIUS — You might be eager to reach out for something different that can take you out of your comfort zone. You could run into a friend or get an unexpected offer that leads to a discovery you might want to take advantage of. CAPRICORN — This week you could find it hard to communicate with someone and this might leave them wondering what’s up. Be the one to reach out and talk, and your relationship may be back to normal fairly soon. AQUARIUS — Have you been worried about something? The start of the week could find you ruminating on something without coming to any firm conclusions. Let it go. The answer could show up when your mind is occupied with something else. PISCES — This week could be a call to rethink your agenda. If you’ve been using a lot of mental energy, this may be a call to give it a rest. This is particularly the case if your mind is racing and you find it difficult to get to sleep at night.

How to play Codeword Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great test of 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 you off. 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.

ear Abby: I dated the perfect man for two years. When he asked me to marry him, I had to say yes. He was kind, gentle, attentive, easygoing, full of dreams, great sense of humor, an excellent provider and sexually the best. Three months after our perfect wedding, it all began to unravel. I learned he is bipolar with manic episodes. He has been married three times before me and always lost interest in sex. He says he may be attracted to men, then tells me he’s not sure. He also isn’t as good handling his financial affairs as he led me to believe. I’m 58, and he’s 59. How could I not have had a clue about any of this? I sold my house to move into the parsonage with him. After repeatedly Abigail being lied to, Van Buren misinformed or left out of the loop all together, I am now couch-surfing, mainly at my exhusband’s house. I feel tired and broken — no income, no home, no respect and no hope of him getting it together. I would appreciate any advice or counsel. All I have figured out is to start over and remain single as he is my third husband. — Third Time Around Dear T.T.A.: You will feel less tired and broken after you have consulted a lawyer about helping you get out of this fraudulent marriage. And while you’re at it, you and your lawyer should bring this to the attention of the church council or whoever holds the lease on that parsonage. I am sure they will be very interested in what you have to say about the leader of their flock. Dear Abby: When I started dating my husband, “Ralph,� 22 years ago, I made it very clear that I would NEVER move to his hometown, which is six hours away. Even though it may seem selfish, my wish was to be near my family. Our relationship progressed anyway. We’ve been married for 15 years, live in my hometown, and have three little boys. Ralph is 42, homesick and wants us to move back home now to be around his parents because he’s lived around my parents for 15 years. I told him my intentions were made crystal clear before we got married and I wasn’t moving. His response was, “So you were worth moving for, but I’m not?� There are other reasons for my not wanting to move there, but the bottom line is that I wish he had been true to himself before deciding to marry me. I think it’s a bit late to be playing this game. I’d like your thoughts, and please give it to me straight. — Staying Put Dear Staying: OK, here they are. I think your husband has a valid point. Marriage is supposed to be about compromise, and for the last 15 years he has lived in your community. I wish you had shared what your other reasons for being against moving are, because they might have influenced my opinion. But from where I sit, I think you owe it to Ralph to give it a try. Perhaps you and your family could rent out the home you’re living in and rent a place in his hometown for a year. That way, if you can’t adjust, you would be able to move back near your own family, which appears to be your first priority.

Son-in-law drinks his way through family vacations

ear Carolyn: My husband and I have owned a cabin since our children were small, and we have entertained their friends and had wonderful family times there. Now adults with children of their own, they love coming to the cabin still, and all three generations value the family time we have there. One of our sons-in-law enjoys going over to the neighbors’ — who we are very friendly with — and drinking with them for hours during the day, and then again in the night until the wee hours. Then he’ll sleep until late the next morning. That is not what we had in mind for our “family cabin� and I resent him doing this. My husband does not want me to say anything to him, as my husband is a peacekeeper. My husband and our daughter ski together early every morning and it is the highlight of my husband’s summer to be able to do that with our daughter. Saying something to the son-in-law may jeopardize that. Our daughter joins her husband at the neighbors at times, but is usually tending to their children while he is off doing his thing. What is your opinion of this situation? —- Anonymous Anonymous: My opinion is that your daughter either has or might soon have a significant problem to face, if her husband’s drinking hops the boundaries of a few sessions at the cabin. And if that’s true, then she will need the security of her parents’ customs more than ever. Assuming no larger alcohol issue, you present a clear side-by-side comparison of the possible costs of your options, which I hope you have the strength to evaluate with everyone’s needs in mind:

TONIGHT

Say nothing, and the potential cost is the ongoing resentment you feel at the son-in-law’s ... disregard for family time? long absences from child care? binge-drinking? while a guest in your home. Say something, and the potential cost is your husband’s precious tradition with your daughter. This will expose one of my biases, but I can’t imagine choosing to ease my irritation by taking away something a loved one builds his life around. Frustration can be managed internally — by lowering expectations, for example. It’s unfortunate it comes at an emotional cost to you, I am not minimizing that — but why are we on this Earth if not for this kind of joy, this living, in-the-moment nostalgia of a shared touchstone with a grown child? Why else do we put up with flossing and taxes and self-indulgent sons-inlaw? You can address both peril and priorities in one gesture — if you can master your own feelings, and if you and your daughter have this kind of intimacy — by asking her whether this is problem drinking or just a cabin release. Big ifs. You need to be ready to take no and yes for an answer, since both come with burdens. You need to be ready for her to bristle at the intrusion, which is why the emotional groundwork is so important. It needs to be credible that you’re not judging and will defer to her on this. If you can’t pull that off — I’m not judging here, either — then butting out is your best option. It’s your cabin but it’s her marriage. When in doubt, stepping back is the way to stay close.

Here comes the fog June gloom extends into August By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

N

ever mind that it’s summer. During mornings last week, gloom turned August into “Fogest.â€? Fog rolled in and blanketed Santa Barbara County, from the Cold Spring Canyon Bridge on State Route 154 to Stearns Wharf in Santa Barbara. You could see the fog burn dramatically above Cabrillo Boulevard. This year, the usual June gloom overcast extended into August, and the morning gloom could be seen and felt, especially if you stepped into the Pacific Ocean. The water off the beaches was in the mid-60s. But by Friday, conditions had changed a bit, and the day began with sunshine. The best news is that conditions won’t get too hot. The forecast calls for today’s high to be 67 in Santa Barbara. Never mind that it’s summer. email: dmason@newspress.com Â
