A ‘ZOOper’ reopening No more ‘lion’ around, the zoo is open again

Council also reviews rate increases for solid waste services

NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Ralph, Felicia and Twiga are ready to make new friends. As the Santa Barbara Zoo’s long-awaited reopening finally arrives, the general public can now meet the two new lions and baby giraffe. Visitors saw the new animals when the zoo reopened to everyone Tuesday. Residents and tourists alike were quick to hop on ticket sales online, resulting in a sold-out first day back. Facing many guidelines that required big adjustments, the zoo has been working on its plan to reopen since March. Needless to say, smiles were present under the masks. “ ‘Excited’ is an understatement,” said Rich Block, the zoo’s president and CEO. “We are thrilled. It’s a big deal and we’re up to it.” One of the largest changes the zoo made was requiring online reservations for both paid guests and zoo members, closing off the site to walk-in guests. In addition, guests have a 90-minute limit to spend admiring the animals, a measure enforced to limit foot traffic. Now, guests are only permitted to walk a one-way path through the zoo, with white arrows indicating where to go. The zoo also provides a number at the door where guests text “WELCOME,” and they receive a text including visiting information, a map of the zoo with the updated path, the link for train tickets and the membership application. Signs all around the park remind guests to use their “Meerkat Manners,” including wearing masks, staying 6 feet away from other “flocks” and sanitizing. After a soft opening for members only the past few days, the CEO said this allowed staff to identify areas that needed tightening up to prepare them for this day. “Staff that was a little apprehensive about having more people at the site are actually reengaged and really excited they see guests again,” said Mr. Block. “As I look around and see guests come through, they’re not only respectful of the zoo and this opportunity, but they’re following the guidelines. I see masks everywhere, which is really what we want.” Misty Gray, the zoo’s director of husbandry and welfare, said some animals have also expressed their excitement at the humans’ return, Felicia specifically enjoying the new attention. “Her first time seeing guests here, she did not want to come in,” Ms. Gray said about the lion. “She wanted to stay with the guests.” Please see ZOO on A7

City of SB OKs reduced budget NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Santa Barbara City Council adopted the operating and capital budget for fiscal year 2021 Tuesday, forgoing a salary increase to mitigate the significant deficit the city faces due to COVID-19’s impacts. In a “uniquely challenging year” for city budget staff, the budget unanimously approved by the council reflects efforts to mitigate the citywide revenue losses for FY2021 of $24 million. “This represented about $6.5 million in department reductions to the general fund as well as some labor concessions, some reductions to capital and then use of some reserves as well,” said Interim Finance Director Jennifer Tomaszewski. Finance Committee amendments include general fund revenue assumptions, proposed general fund and enterprise fund fee changes. The approved changes also include the budget reduction plans; staff adjustments, including $35,000 for the Juneteenth celebration; $1.15 million in Measure C funding for the library plaza and a reduction in the pavement project by the matching amount; $25,000 for the Chamber of Commerce; and $50,000 for the Point in Time Count, according to Ms. Tomaszeski. “In addition to the monetary items approved with the budget, there were also several items approved as directives for staff going into next year. There were six items council gave direction to bring back quarterly status updates through the RAFAEL MALDONADO / NEWS-PRESS PHOTOS

The penguins at the Santa Barbara Zoo are eager to see visitors again on the official reopening day.

Retail space reopens for students’ creations By PAUL GONZALEZ NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Coastland is filled with soaps, laser-cut woodwork and other unique handmade trinkets that would look at home in a boutique gift shop or on a social media influencer’s Instagram feed. Tourists and local customers might be surprised to find that the Linden Avenue retail shop’s eclectic inventory is made by Carpinteria High School students. Coastland, which is a quick walk from Carpinteria State Beach at 768 Linden Ave., is a Pro Deo Foundation project that provides an after-school entrepreneurship and business training program for high school

Finance Committee,” said Ms. Tomaszeski. One of the directives was for outside evaluation of plans for the new $80 million police station and how resources are being spent. Council also approved moving parking enforcement from the police department to public works, directed staff to identify funding options for a minimum of four positions related to social work, mental health and/or code enforcement, and directed staff to work with the county on a co-response program. Council also directed staff to reevaluate the special events permitting process managed by the police department and to work with Santa Barbara’s black community on a community center. While the City Council cannot volunteer for pay cuts due to language in the city charter, each member of the council agreed to forego an escalation in pay for FY2021 that is tied to each district’s median income and pledged to reinvest the funds into the city. Also on Tuesday, the council held a public hearing regarding proposed solid waste rate increase of 6.9% for FY2021. “Our Solid Waste Fund reserves have been greatly depleted by covering a rate increase in the Fiscal Year 2018. With the onset of the pandemic, our commercial service reduction has been dramatic and the associated revenues (have been greatly cut). Right now we’re seeing anywhere from a 15% to 20% reduction in those revenues,” said Environmental Please see council on A7

students called Pathways. The Pro Deo Foundation is a nonprofit that works to create pathways for children and youth to flourish. Foundation Executive Director David Roberts said Coastland opened on Nov. 15, 2019, to great success, but had to close in early March because of COVID-19 guidelines. “We moved to Carpinteria with the idea of doing this program with the store. In the process we connected with the high school who had lost their after-school program grant funding. They asked us to take over the afterschool program,” Mr. Roberts said.

‘Each box will have an unusual combination of goods’ treasures

Continued from Page A3

Canvas totes were filled with unique items customized for each client. Now, the clever young woman has come up with another unique idea, which she calls Santa Barbara Treasures Gift Box, a curated collection of local goods.

“Each box will have an unusual combination of goods. It is my way of thanking the community and putting the spotlight on other local businesses that my clients have never seen before,” said Mrs. Brown. Among the 15 vendors contributing items are Pacific Pickle Works, The Riviera Towel Company, Love Your Body Oil, Simple Wealth, Oil Slick Beach

with the dishes. Call me stupid to complain, but he is causing me more work, and I don’t know what to do. This is the second marriage for both of us, and I am trying hard to be a kinder, gentler wife. When my husband washes the dishes, pots and pans, he misses spots, sometimes lots of them. Also, he is impatient and doesn’t want to wait the three minutes it takes for the hot water to get to the kitchen, so he washes in cold water. I tell him I will take care of the dishes, but then he gets upset with me. How do I handle this without hurting his feelings or his pride? — Kinder, Gentler Wife Dear K.G.W.: Sometimes it’s not what we say but how we say it that can hurt someone’s feelings or pride. Tell your husband that you love him and know he wants to do this for you, but, respectfully, his “talents” lie elsewhere. Because he is willing to help, entrust him to the important task of doing the rinsing and/or drying.

ou can bet on Black Jack for a great chat. The gifted conversationalist is awaiting adoption through Animal Shelter Assistance Program in Goleta. Besides being a social butterfly, Black Jack is a 6-year-old shorthair black and white male cat. He’s affectionate and enjoys being the center of attention. He also told ASAP that he hasn’t met a cat toy that he doesn’t like. Like most cats during the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Jack is staying in a foster home but remains available for adoption. Check out www.asapcats.org for adoptable cats, adoption applications and fostering opportunities. Until ASAP reopens to the public, you can contact the nonprofit at info@asapcats.org or 805-683-3368. — Dave Mason

LIFE

SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS

“To find out what one is fitted to do, and to secure an opportunity to do it, is the key to happiness.� — John Dewe

ARIES — Success on all levels is filling your life and making you feel absolutely wonderful, Aries. The downside of this is that you might be a little too conscientious. Are you putting in a lot of extra hours? Be discriminating about this. Don’t work harder than you need to. You could stress yourself out to the point where you tax your strength too much. That won’t get you anywhere. Pace yourself. TAURUS — Hard work, enthusiasm, and dedication are now paying off for you financially, Taurus. New opportunities could be opening up for you to profit from your artistic talents The downside of this is that you might be working so hard that you’re too drained to be creative, even though the inspiration is there. Take a moment to rework your schedule to accomplish the most in the least amount of time. GEMINI — People close to you might be a bit worried about you, Gemini. Too much work might have you feeling a bit less than your usual self, perhaps even a little feverish and headachy. If so, this is a good day to take some time out, stay home, and get some rest. Don’t worry about sabotaging your success. It will continue. Take a break and get back to the helm tomorrow. CANCER — All continues to go well personally and professionally, Cancer. You’re feeling strong and vigorous, but you might find that you’re a bit vague today. Your mind may not have its usual acuity, and you could be easily distracted. This isn’t a good day to start new projects. Try to concentrate on finishing up old tasks and tying up loose ends in order to make this a rewarding day. LEO — Your high from your recent successes could have you wanting to go crazy purchasing luxury items you didn’t feel were practical before, Leo. This is fine as long as you’re discriminating and don’t give in to impulse buying. This also isn’t a good time to overindulge in food and drink. You should definitely enjoy your successes while still making use of your common sense. VIRGO — Not only your own success but that of members of your household could have you on a real emotional high today, Virgo. Your mind is likely to be buzzing with possibilities for future expansion, some of which may not be all that workable. However, you should allow yourself a few flights of fancy. Tomorrow your feet will be back on the ground and you’ll see things in a more practical light. LIBRA — Today may prove to be +*#!2 +1$)"$ one of your busiest in a long time,

Libra. The promise of continuing success could find you spending a lot of time on the phone, sending faxes or emails, or perhaps making a few short trips around the community. You might not be able to reach everyone you hoped to speak to, however. Don’t let this get you down. Just be persistent and you’ll reach them eventually. SCORPIO — Business and financial successes have you feeling happy and satisfied, Scorpio. You’re also looking forward to moving ahead. The downside of this period is that people who aren’t particularly trustworthy could decide to grab your coattails for their own purposes. Some might even ask for loans. Be careful about the ones you choose to assist. They might not be honest with you. Don’t fall for any sob stories. SAGITTARIUS — As your career dreams continue to unfold, Sagittarius, you may find that there is a downside. First, there are new responsibilities and you might doubt your ability to fulfill them. Second, you might find yourself catapulted into the uncomfortable realm of office politics. Don’t let these matters put a damper on your enthusiasm. You have what it takes to fulfill the first concern and the wisdom to avoid the second. Onward and upward. CAPRICORN — Recent spiritual breakthroughs might have you feeling both exhilarated and downcast. Your sensitive side tells you that this is a definite step forward on your spiritual path, but your logical side might cause you to doubt the reality of it. Take comfort in the fact that reality is relative, Capricorn. What you’re sensing is at least valid for you. Then keep moving ahead. AQUARIUS — Many of your personal goals have either been met or are in the process of manifesting, Aquarius. This has you feeling exhilarated. However, others around you might have their hands out. You might be asked to contribute to charities or make personal loans to people you don’t really know. You tend to want to be of assistance wherever you can but be discriminating about helping others right now. Some people may be less than trustworthy. PISCES — More confirmation of career and business success could come your way today, Pisces. You’re probably feeling excited and motivated to keep pushing ahead. You might find, however, that increased responsibilities interfere with your social life and wonder if your friends have forgotten you. They haven’t, but you’ll feel better if you eke out a few hours for friends each week. Remember what they say about all work and no play.

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

Wood products produced with laser-cutter COASTLAND

27, and students began coming back into the shop to create more inventory on June 8. Mr. Roberts said 25 students work at Coastland through the Pathways program. The student team evenly splits 100% of the profits from shop sales. The Pro Deo Foundation covers the shop’s overhead expenses. Before the COVID-19 outbreak, up to 19 students would work in the shop at one time, cutting handmade soap into succulents and starfish, designing wooden plaques and hand painting jewelry. Now a maximum of 15 students can work in the store at once. Mr. Roberts said the foundation implemented social distancing protocols, and the students work on tables outside as much as possible. “Because we were sheltered for so long, we weren’t making any inventory. So when students came back, we were trying to build that inventory up. Weekends in Carp, we see a big influx of people so we’ve been working on a lot of soap, tumblers, can koozies and those kinds of things to get the shop back up to speed,� Mr. Roberts said. He added that once the staff replenish the shop’s inventory, the foundation will help students develop new products. “A lot of them will tell us ‘Here’s the things we want to make’ or ‘I found this cool recipe for soap.’ We’ll talk to them about market, design and we’ll help them through the iterative process. We can help them with the technical side, but it’s all based on their creativity and drive,� Mr. Roberts said. One of those new products is a line of metal rings made of reclaimed spoons. The students cut off the handle and use a tool to bend it into a ring. Mr. Roberts said the rings are a popular new item. “That’s one of the things we’ve had trouble keeping. We’re selling them as soon as we can make them. One of the students

who does this, he found some vintage spoon handles so he’s been doing some cool things with those,� Mr. Roberts said. He said Coastland’s signature wood products are cut with an in-house lasercutter. Students prepare the wood for the cutter with a wood router and sander. Students can even bend thin pieces of engraved wood into cap brims and book covers. “When we were starting out, we wanted to think of things we could do to help students make sellable products. We stumbled upon a laser and started doing the research and decided it was a good investment,� Mr. Roberts said. Students can sign up for six-week shifts. They work in the Coastland shop for four hours per week on average. For more information about Coastland

Continued from Page A1 She said the giraffes and gorillas were a little more hesitant with the returning company, but the animals have overall been very interactive. “We were curious to see how everything was going to work out with all the changes we’ve enacted, but it’s been really great,� Ms. Gray said. “People have been so happy

to be back and so friendly.� Guests of all ages delighted at the new arrivals and old classics: the gibbons, penguins, toucans, vultures, California condors and flamingos. John Ambrose and his wife are zoo connoisseurs and traveled from Fresno for the zoo’s opening day. “We’re happy to be here,� Mr. Ambrose said. “The setting in the zoo is spectacular. This is a zoo that has very natural, wide open spaces for the animals. It’s very, very

nice.� Jon Bryson and his two-year-old, Charley, are Santa Barbara Zoo regulars. Mr. Bryson said his daughter was “over the moon, beating her chest all the way to the gorillas.� “Excitement is definitely in the air,� he said. “The place looks great. It’s clean and crisp. “There’s a little more light and a little more love in the air here at the Santa Barbara Zoo.�

Services Manager Rene Eyerly. The increases are also meant to adjust for the increase to tipping fees in connection with the development of new solid regional waste processing facilities at the Tajiguas landfill and increasing compensation to the city’s contracted hauler by a CPI factor, pursuant to a franchise agreement. An increase of 4.7% is proposed to all customer classes to cover the increases in tipping fees charged by the county. 2.2% of the proposed rate increase would go toward compensating MarBorg Industries for waste collection. “Obviously we would prefer to delay a rate increase if we could, but we have clear contractual obligations to MarBorg and the county,� said Ms. Eyerly. The city is transitioning the processing of commercial recyclables from the MarBorg facility at David Love to a Resource Recovery Center, and the tipping fee is now applied to this tonnage as well, according to Ms. Eyerly. The goal of the Resource Center is to significantly increase the diversion of trash from landfill disposal, extending the life of the landfill and providing a long-term waste management solution for the South Coast. “It’s the largest capital public works project in county history. It’s a state-of-the-art facility, and it will help us achieve our up to 85% diversion,� said Ms. Eyerly. To meet revenue requirements, the county tipping fees for garbage and recycling have increased above the rate of inflation for the last several years. The city used Solid Waste Fund reserves to mitigate the rate increase in FY2018. For FY2019, the city implemented a 12% rate increase, with a 16% rate increase implemented in FY2020. However, rate increases are now necessary to fund the construction of the center as the reserves are depleted. For small residential customers, the proposed rate increase would be $48.90 to $52.37 for one-unit customers and $86.70 to $92.85 for two- to four-unit cart and can service. For five- or more unit residential customers, cart and can service fees would increase from $348.16 to

$368.53, and dumpster service fees would rise 5.85% to $485.94. The Resource Center is scheduled to open early next year. “I know we did receive some letters of protest,� said Mayor Cathy Murillo. “I’m hoping that people will understand that the new facility reduces greenhouse gas emotions, helps us process our discards and our waste, creates energy and that we’re carrying out an environmental project and processing waste and that unfortunately we will have an increase in our rates.� Also, the council unanimously passed a resolution declaring racism a public health crisis and condemning police brutality crafted by city staff and Healing Justice Santa Barbara. The resolution is part of the council’s response to the killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer, and the protests that spread to many cities across the nation condemning and denouncing his death and similar unjustified killings. At the June 2 meeting, many members of the public voiced a need for “all members of our community feel a part of Santa Barbara and feel protected, listened to, and served by their public servants,� according to a city staff report. The resolution indicted everything from slavery and Jim Crow laws to the modern criminal justice system. It also named others fatally shot by officers around the country including Meagan Hockaday, Breonna Taylor and Tony McDade. “We are haunted, too, by the knowledge that these are not isolated events in our country. The number of names and similar experiences is unconscionably long, and an undeniable part of the history of this nation,� read the resolution. In addition to condemning police brutality and declaring racism a public health emergency, the measure resolved to urge the Santa Barbara Police Department to “continue to commit to fair and impartial policing policies, continue to develop and implement comprehensive programs to ensure equitable justice policing practices at all levels of the agency�. Council also directed the City Attorney’s Office to return on July 21 with a presentation on options for establishing an independent civilian police oversight system. email: christianwhittle@newspress.com

Gabe Vincent’s summer ‘Heat-ing’ up Former UCSB star awaits NBA’s July 30 restart and season with Miami By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

The COVID-19 pandemic may have canceled Gabe Vincent’s trip to Tokyo for this summer’s Olympic Games, but the former UCSB star is still taking a shot at some high-stakes basketball. Vincent, a member of the Nigerian National Team, has been in Florida all summer preparing for the July 30 restart of the NBA season as a two-way player with the Miami Heat. Head coach Erik Spoelstra was allowed to resume working with Vincent and the rest of Miami’s players — although just four at time — on Tuesday. “He fits so many of the things

Gabe Vincent, the ninth-leading scorer in UCSB men’s basketball history, is now running around with the NBA’s Miami Heat.

that we like … High character, super-hard work ethic,” Spoelstra said. “He’s developed his game through a lot of sweat and hard work behind the scenes when no one was watching. “We relate to guys like that. We’re fans of his and we’re excited to be able to develop him.” Two-way players normally split their time between the NBA and its feeder system, the G League. The coronavirus, however, has left next month’s NBA restart in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., as the only game in town. What will that mean for Vincent, who turned 24 just 10 days ago? “Still unsure at the moment,” he replied. What was made certain this week is his status as the G League’s Most Improved Player. A website, “Ridiculously Upside,” declared him as such a few weeks ago, and the G League made it official this week in a vote of the league’s coaches and general managers. “The G League has served me well thus far and I think it’s a great tool,” Vincent said. “Moving forward, it gave me the opportunity to be in this position now.” He led the G League in threepointers per game (4.2) while averaging 20.9 points this year during stints with both the Stockton Kings and, after his acquisition by Miami, the Sioux Falls SkyForce. Thumb and hamstring injuries had restricted him to just 24 games during his previous season as a G League

rookie. “Coming into this year, I just wanted to show that I had improved and was playing better,” he said. “I was trying to focus on that, and not necessarily on being called up (to the NBA). But thankfully, I was.” Vincent’s biggest NBA moment so far came on Feb. 5 at the Staples Center when he scored nine points while making a trio of three-pointers during 17.5 minutes of action against the Los Angeles Clippers. “He definitely can fit,” Spoelstra told reporters after that game. “He helps a lot of the actions that we run; they run them in Sioux Falls, obviously. He looks good on those actions on the run. “He has range, but he can shoot on the move. He’s a capable, detailed defender.” Vincent had a successful career at UCSB, ranking ninth on its alltime scoring list with 1,441 points despite missing much of his junior year with a major knee injury. He bounced back during his senior season of 2017-18 to lead the Gauchos to a school-record 23 victories. He earned second-team All-Big West Conference honors while breaking the school record for career three-pointers with 243. Vincent admits, however, that he’s had to adapt to the pro game. “I think I’m definitely a different player than in college,” he said. “The professional game is a lot different — it has different rules and is played at a different pace, with different spacing.” Adam Simon, the Heat’s vice

president of basketball operations, believes Vincent’s game is NBAready. “I think he’s shown an ability to have NBA three-point range,” Simon said. “His game is going to go to another level. “How it’ll translate and how he’ll be able to make it on the Heat, that’s to be determined. But I think everything that we had hoped for when we two-wayed him during the season … I think we’re very pleased.” His game evolved last summer at the FIBA World Cup in China when he helped Nigeria qualify for the Olympics, which will now be played in 2021. Vincent, who was eligible to play for Nigeria since his father was born there, finished as its second-leading scorer with an average of 11.4 points per game. “It was an amazing experience and a long summer — a lot longer than the typical summer for most players,” he said. “It was good for me to compete against different guys who play different styles, and representing a nation put a lot more meaning into it. “It elevated my game in many ways.” Vincent has trained religiously at Miami’s AmericanAirlines Arena ever since the NBA began allowing individual workouts on May 13. He’s remained healthy even though the number of coronavirus cases in Florida topped 100,000 this week. He began daily, NBA-mandated testing for COVID-19 on Tuesday. The Heat plans to bus to Lake

SHAW, Rita Rita Shaw, who lived in Santa Barbara for over forty years, died June 11th at Vista Del Monte Retirement Community. She was 97, and less than a month away from her 98th birthday. A fiercely independent spirit who lifted up everyone she knew with her generosity, Rita, as friends described her, was a “force of nature” with strong affection for those she loved. She cared passionately about her four children and spoke with them almost every day. Rita projected warmth and was always kind and respectful to the greatest and the least who crossed her path. She was especially supportive of the disempowered. Rita loved the underdog. “Do something just for you,” she used to say. She may have seen us all as underdogs! Conversations with Rita were often abbreviated. She didn’t like aimless chit chat. If you didn’t have something to talk about, she would say, “You have my permission to withdraw” or “Are we done now?” and this was as likely to happen in person as on the phone. But even when she expressed herself tersely, it was with sincerity and a light touch of mischievous humor. As she often said, “We’re all in this together,” and with Rita you felt it. She would always be there for you in your hour of need. Rita was born in Leeds, England in 1922. Being a child in the north of England, where the great depression hit hardest, and her later experience of rationing during WWII, gave her a lifelong sense of frugality. In 1933 she moved to Devon, where she was encouraged to moderate her broad Yorkshire dialect to speak with a more socially acceptable accent. In 1939, at age 17, Rita was called to the Home Office to work as a secretary in London for the British Merchant Navy. She was in London during the Blitz when her fellow Brits descended to the Underground every night for protection from the German massed bombing raids. The war experience left her with a deep appreciation of the courage and resilience of her countrymen. She embodied those traits herself throughout her life. Rita was incredibly resilient dealing with both physical and emotional pain. As a fellow countryman put it, “she combined a core of Yorkshire steel with a most profound humanity.” She never complained, preferring to light a candle rather than curse the darkness. Following the allied invasion of Italy, Rita was posted to Algeria where she met her future husband and the father of her children, Norman Shaw, a colonel in the U.S. Army. After the war, Rita came to the U.S. and moved to her husband’s hometown, Lincoln, Nebraska, where she spent the next 25 years. Rita developed life-long friendships and grew to love the stark beauty of the prairie landscape and the Colorado Rockies where she vacationed with her family. They twice travelled to Europe, with four small children, taking long trips in a VW microbus, traveling through the Pyrenees and finally settled for three months on the Balearic island of Ibiza. Eventually the marriage broke down and Rita joined the few courageous women of that generation who chose to get a divorce. She raised her four children alone, attended their sporting events and worked two, sometimes three jobs, to make ends meet. Rita believed in her own capabilities. She asked Cliff ’s Notes’ if she could write the booklet for D.H. Lawrence’s, Sons and Lovers. “Only college graduates write those” was the answer. She replied, “Just try me.” She set up her typewriter in the middle of the living room amidst her children. Fifty-five years later, Cliff ’s Notes’ Sons and Lovers is still in publication. Not bad for a girl who left school at 16. She got into TV through her voluntary work with the Junior League, created a TV talk show, and then produced and hosted many successful programs with KOLN TV. Perhaps her most ground-breaking production was with penitentiary convicts, The Prisoner Speaks, where Rita interviewed prisoners with the same unsparing and generous attention she gave everyone else. For Rita, they were people first, prisoners second, and the program was a landmark in local TV. At this time, she also supported a gay friend, prominent in the community, to overcome the cruel ostracism to which he was subjected. In 1972 Rita married Al Rung, Vice President of Burlington Northern Railroad, and moved to Minnesota, where she was hired by KTCA, the PBS affiliate of the Twin Cities. Rita became a director of many successful TV programs, serving as on-air moderator for most of them. An admirer of her work at KTCA put it plainly, “Rita was a legend.” She made a difference. In 1980, Rita and Al (now retired), moved to Santa Barbara where her son had enrolled in graduate school at UCSB. Rita and Al started a business, Great Days, that sold commemorative scrolls of news events on the day people were born. The business took off, and they lived in an apartment overlooking Leadbetter Beach, where Rita continued to live after Al died. She loved having her apartment filled with her children and grandchildren each summer. Although running a successful business demanded much of her energy, Rita still found time to serve on the S.B. Library Board, join Women Against Gun Violence, Hospice, The Monday Group, the Unitarian Church, and virtually any group that worked for equal rights and against violence. She was an avid movie goer, sometimes even demanding a refund if she deemed the movie was not worth seeing, and she got her refunds! Rita loved listening to people’s stories and asked irreverent questions with a twinkle in her eye. She could be trusted with one’s deepest secrets. She heard countless confessions and did not impose sanctimonious moralities on anyone. People felt they could safely tell Rita anything if they spoke with an authentic voice. Rita loved to sing and could recite many of the Romantic poets by heart. She also loved to dance and took lessons for years at Arthur Murray Dance Studio. She took risks and loved to travel, often visiting her younger daughter in the mountains of northern New Hampshire, and her sons in Massachusetts. Rita made trips all over the world, visiting her daughter Leslie, including a week in Tripoli, Libya during the time of Gaddafi. She also visited Japan, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and spent time in Spain and Mexico in language immersion programs. She would sleep on a floor, put up with any kind of food in a restaurant, caring more about the working conditions of the servers. After Rita lost her driver’s license in 2014, she moved to Vista Del Monte. She loved to be teased, playfully insulted, and loved to give it back. At VDM, Rita was involved in the ukulele group, Vista Voices, a play reading group and she loved to sit in the library reading the New York Times from where she would call us to talk about current events. She remained avidly interested in the world and recently reminded us all to “wear your mask.” Even in these last months, in conversations, Rita did not miss a thing. Rita often used to say “When I’m dead, I don’t want a memorial service with people saying maudlin things about me, going on about how wonderful I was. Forget it. Just go out and have a good time. Live your life.” That is surely what Rita did. She lived her life with a full heart and adventurous spirit. Like her beloved Brits during the Blitz, she was tough, resolute, and humane. She was a model for how to live. She will be never be forgotten by anyone who knew her, and she will be sorely missed. An English relative said, “Her inner humanity and compassion illuminated her entire being” and as someone at Vista Del Monte put it, “All human beings should be like Rita.” Rita is survived by her daughter Leslie Corcos and husband, Robin, Gregory Shaw, Christie Shaw-Doran and husband, Ched, Cameron Shaw and wife, Carol, eight grandchildren and eleven great grandchildren.
