Local nail and hair salons start working outdoors

Restaurants support decision to close West Victoria Street By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

A customer receives nail service under the canopy of SB Nail Bar’s new outdoor setup. Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Monday that some personal care facilities can reopen and conduct service outside.

The Santa Barbara City Council decided to close West Victoria Street from State Street to Chapala Street to allow the Public Market and other restaurants on that block to expand their services outdoors. On Tuesday, restaurant owners praised that decision during the City Council meeting. The decision was made at the beginning of the week, and the city is hoping to have the street closed by the end of the week until the foreseeable future, according to city officials. This closure follows that of State Street’s notable closure at the end of May, which allowed for restaurants to move tables and chairs outdoors to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and allow for social distancing. Marge Cafarelli, the owner of the Public Market, said she wanted to extend a “heartfelt thank you” to the city administration for getting it closed. “I think it will be a win-win for all of the restaurants on West Victoria,” she said. “As you know, we’re in a very difficult time, and being able to add additional seating into the street will really be a lifeline.” The owner of Scarlett Begonia, Krista Fooks, also called in to voice her support of the street closure. “Closing the street and letting us safely expand without traffic would be instrumental for my business and everybody on my block,” she said. “We want to provide a place where people feel safe with their families.” Mitchell Sjerven, owner of another restaurant, Bouchon,

“I think it will be a win-win for all of the restaurants on West Victoria.” Marge Cafarelli, Public Market owner suggested the closure become permanent. “I think the vast majority of Santa Barbarans I’ve spoken with are very in favor of this,” he said. During Tuesday’s council meeting, the City Attorney’s office also gave a presentation on the civilian police review systems, where John Doimas, the assistant city attorney, outlined the background of these systems, their general functions, benefits and goals, existing practices and recommendations. He introduced four common oversight models of these review systems: investigation-focused, review-focused, auditor/monitorfocused and a hybrid model. The attorney’s office recommended to “direct the city attorney and other city staff designated by council to conduct informational public workshops in conjunction with representative community groups to gather community feedback on civilian police review needs and concerns; and provide direction for other future actions as council may deem appropriate.” The City Council hopes the review board will increase police accountability and transparency, build trust, eliminate bias, deter Please see council on A2

Goleta city council votes for continuance on general plan amendment for 625 Dara Road By JORGE MERCADO NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

“It’s not like before, but it’s better than nothing,” said Quan Nguyen of SB Nail Bar.

By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Employees of SB Nail Bar were hard at work giving manicures and pedicures outside their location on Tuesday morning, having already responded to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s announcement that some personal care facilities can reopen. This came just on the heels of the governor’s announcement last week that indoor operations at restaurants, bars, barbershops, and nail salons had to cease amid a spike in COVID-19 cases. Under the new guidelines, facilities giving personal care services like haircuts, nail services, and massages can provide their services outside so long as they conform to local regulations and zoning rules. SB Nail Bar moved its care services outdoors under 10by-10 canopies last week when the governor gave his reclosing orders, according to manager

SB Nail Bar first opened for outdoor service last week when Gov. Gavin Newsom gave orders for personal care facilities to cease indoor operations, but the City of Santa Barbara told them to stop and that a Board of Cosmetology permit was required.

Quan Nguyen, but was informed by the city of Santa Barbara that performing outdoor care services required a permit from the State of California’s Board of Barbering & Cosmetology. On Monday, the city informed Mr. Nguyen that he could reopen the nail bar again for outdoor

services so long as he followed the required guidelines. The manager remarked that although SB Nail Bar’s first attempt at moving its services outside was shut down, the business still “planned ahead” for moving outside again. Open well before other beauty service establishments on State

Street, SB Nail Bar has wasted no time in getting business back up and running. Mr. Nguyen said the governor’s new announcement made him and his employees feel “relieved.” “It’s not like before, but it’s better than nothing,” he said. Please see salons on A8

The Goleta City Council voted unanimously on Tuesday for a continuance on the agenda item regarding a consideration of initiation of a general plan amendment for 625 Dara Road in Goleta. On February 22 of this year, Hersel Mikaelian, the property owner/applicant, submitted a request for the initiation of a GPA. Mr. Mikaelian stated Tuesday that his goal would be to facilitate a senior care facility project with approximately 150-170 beds and associated amenities on the entire site. Currently, the property is divided into 13 parcels, which would be merged into one lot to then be used for the senior care facility project. The council was only voting to approve initiation requests to study a change to the land use designation, not to approve the building of a senior care facility. “I started this project four years ago. I was part of your council last November 5 and you mentioned that we need senior

care desperately and there was some talk about my property. … I followed direction and I have been working with your staff, and I’m only hoping that you see that I am not here for the project. I’m here for an investigation for all of us,” Mr. Mikaelian said. “That is his passion, he wants to build a senior care facility. He wants his property used for that purpose. Even if he doesn’t own it, he would be willing to commit to that, an enforceable deed restriction that the city could hold and hold the property to that limitation,” Mr. Mikaelian’s council added. Councilmember Stuart Kasdin was the original member who requested a continuance for a later date, saying there were still a lot of questions he had before he felt comfortable putting this to a vote. “This has been going since 1977. I’m 70 years old. I don’t know how long you want to think about this, but I may not be around. I appreciate what you’re trying to do. And if you need more time, I’m happy to give you more time,” Mr. Mikaelian said Please see GOLETA on A8

True-life adventure Book to Action program features book about lost cat, homeless man By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

‘S

trays: A Lost Cat, a Homeless Man and Their Journey Across America,” a true story by Britt Collins, is the centerpiece for the second annual Book to Action program that continues through Aug. 21 at Goleta and Santa Ynez Valley libraries. “ ‘Strays’ describes the incredible journey of Michael King, a homeless man living in Portland, Ore., who befriends a lost cat he names Tabor,” said Allison Gray, director of the Goleta Valley Library. “As the two travel across several states and overcome many challenges together, they form a healing bond that speaks to the special connection that we share with our animal companions and the impact that rescuing an animal can have in a person’s life.” In celebration of the theme, the libraries are offering a variety of virtual programs for all ages throughout July and August. To kick off the program, patrons who participate in the libraries’ Sidewalk Service receive a color-your-own-cat bookmark in their paper bags at pick-up with a link to the website to view the full schedule of events. “Weekly programming includes pet-themed craft workshops, book discussions, adoptionthemed storytimes in English and Spanish, presentations by expert community panelists and even an author spotlight visit from Britt Collins herself,” said Ms. Gray. “Ms. Collins lives in London, but is planning to be in Los Angeles in August so we’ll be very lucky to have an event with her.” All of the Book to Action programs will be accessible virtually through GoToMeeting, Facebook and YouTube. Goleta, Buellton and Solvang patrons can borrow the book, and everyone in the Black Gold System can borrow the e-book and e-audiobooks from Overdrive.

Meditative path

The Labyrinth Trail is a hidden treasure on top of UCSB’s Lagoon Island. The News-Press stumbled onto the labyrinth recently and followed the entire path to the center without stepping over any rocks. That required going around all the circles and took a few minutes. But there was a sense of victory at the end, as well as a sense of peace from the surroundings. The trail was dedicated in 2011 and resulted from the vision and generosity of Carol Greer, who retired in 2000 as director of Counseling and Career Services. There was also the campus sponsorship of Student Affairs. For more information, go to gradpost.ucsb.edu. DAVE MASON/NEWS-PRESS PHOTOS

his response to your simple request indicates that any accommodation you asked of him would likely be met with the same reaction. Dear Abby: My 63-yearold husband refuses to cut his hair. It is gray and thinning and is now longer than mine. Even when it’s clean it looks dirty. I was raised to take pride in my appearance. If I say anything about it, he thinks it’s funny, or the other extreme, that I am picking on him. He’s not a rock star or a young lad. Please help. — Neat and Clean in California Dear Neat and Clean: I’ll try. Your mistake is making his problem (poor grooming) your problem. Continue to take pride in your appearance, and if he prefers to look like an old hippie, let him. Neither you nor I can change him, and because his tresses are thinning, the problem may resolve itself. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www. DearAbby.com or P.O.

Grandma seeks ways to cut grandsons’ gaming

ear Carolyn: My grandsons, 6 and 9, are addicted to video games. If they’re not playing them, they’re asking when they can. If I cut them off, they ask to go home, where limits are not usually enforced. There’s one exception: They love to swim, as do I. They belong to a beautiful neighborhood pool, but their mom has told me I can’t take them there except at her invitation, and I’m not allowed to ask or take them to my own club pool. She and her husband say I’m not respecting their boundaries but I feel like I’ve been hogtied. Can you suggest a solution? — Hogtied Hogtied: “No.” It’s timeless. Said with pleasant conviction, it’s door-closing, window-opening, attitude-changing. No to video games past the allotted time, and no to their going home to play them. Then what will the boys do? Complain, push, mope. It’ll be miserable for a while. But if you stand pleasantly firm on your pleasant “no” of conviction, eventually they will get the message their preferred method of timekilling is not available to them no matter how hard they lobby for it, and their brains will get to work on figuring out the next method. Success at this creates more work for you, of course, which is part of why the pull to gaming is so hard to resist. Games absorb kids into an immobilized state where their guardians need only to feed them occasionally. Once you say no and create a vacuum where this massive pastime used to be, you will have to fill it with opportunities for them to use the time productively or at least non-destructively. You’re in my generation-ish, I assume, and didn’t grow up with the hours-of-gaming option, so you learned firsthand there are two general paths kids can go on when presented with complete idleness: creativity or mayhem. Even for the ones who find creativity on their own — tinkering, reading, imaginatively playing — you still must at least stand sentry at the mayhem gate. It’s work, especially if there isn’t an active neighborhoodful of kids out there ready to absorb them (a much rarer thing than it used to be — for demographic reasons, not just because they’re all zonked out in game caves themselves). Wow I’m old today. Anyway. I’ve stuck to your part in this alone, because the answer there is universal and up to you, but there’s room for discussion with the kids’ parents, too. Ask for a sit-down, say you pushed against the pool ban not to challenge their boundaries, but because it’s the one thing you know of that gets the boys

off screens without a fight. (Right?) So it was desperation, not disrespect. Then ask for their help in figuring out alternatives. Can they suggest other things the kids enjoy when screen time is up? Parks, hobbies, games, sports? Is there something these parents have wanted the kids to try, learn, attend that you could help make happen? Is there a reason for the pool restriction that could be addressed to their satisfaction? If it’s a safety concern, for example, would they agree to having a second adult helper with you? Short version: Present yourself as an eager deputy in rearing these children on the parents’ terms — a deputy who needs maybe an idea or two for getting the job done without outsourcing so much of it to PlayStation. If they say just let them game, then, OK. They want the free babysitting and the control. So you figure it out yourself, for the boys’ sake, or drop your end of the rope. Just have this squarely in mind throughout: You’re there not to prove yourself right; you’re there to help. My unscientific personal research says all parents want the latter people in their lives — and can spot the former in anyone in any form from any distance and with a bottomless well of resentment. “Help me help your family”: Make that the only agenda you’ve got.

ARIES — You might surprise a few people with your words and actions, which could seem out of character for you, Aries. Don’t be surprised if you don’t think or act like your normal self. There is a streak of the oddball inside you that wants to have its day in the spotlight. Let that part of you shine through by wearing your plaid pants with a polka dot shirt and furry orange hat. Wear bright, expressive colors that show off your willingness to stand out in a crowd. TAURUS — You could feel like a giant wrecking ball that’s anxious to break down existing structures. Perhaps you’re upset about a new development in your town, the country’s political system, or the power structure within your home. Regardless of the exact reason, you’re certain that change needs to happen in order to make progress. Often one must tear down an existing structure before a better one can be built. GEMINI — Keep pen and paper close by, Gemini, and have the number of the patent office on hand. You’re apt to come up with some original ideas that could be revolutionary. You’re likely be more intrigued by gadgets and electronic devices than usual. You have the power to make cunning observations about how things work. You may end up with a brilliant idea on how to improve the efficiency of an appliance in your house. CANCER — You may have endless ideas streaming through your head but little patience to see any of them through to the end, Cancer. Perhaps you’re so busy jumping from one thought to the next that you don’t take any of them far enough to know whether or not they’re worth pursuing. Write thoughts down as they come to you, and go over them later when your mind is in a quieter state. LEO — It’s OK to change your opinion, Leo. You may pride yourself on being the solid one who always has an answer or knows exactly where to go. You may look upon others as flaky, indecisive, or fickle. It’s important that you not shut down your thinking after making a decision about something. Keep your mind open to changes that occur around you and maybe you’ll have a change of heart. VIRGO — You may feel a strong need to express your individuality, Virgo. You don’t want to blend into the herd, unseen as you walk down the street. You want to be the sheep with the blue wool, the person skipping instead of walking. Find a place or group that lets you be yourself and not worry about what other people think about your style. Your originality is inspiring. Don’t +*#!2 +1$)"$ squelch it.

HOROSCOPE LIBRA — Going with the flow may not necessarily appeal to you today, Libra. This is one time when you may want to be the fish swimming upstream while the school heads downstream. Feel free to go your own way regardless of what others have to say about it. You may get pressured by your loved ones to act a certain way or go somewhere special. Don’t do these things just to please them. Do what pleases you. SCORPIO — There are a few emotional surprises coming your way, Scorpio. You might act a certain way under normal circumstances, but today you’re apt to take a completely different route. Perhaps you don’t know why you suddenly feel comfortable about a situation that you’d normally be quite skeptical about. Nevertheless, this feeling is possible. Don’t bother questioning your emotions. Simply roll with whatever circumstances come your way. You’ll open many doors for yourself. SAGITTARIUS — You’re apt to need emotional freedom, Sagittarius. Perhaps you sense that you’re being coerced or manipulated into feeling a certain way and feel trapped in the situation. If you can distance yourself, you’re likely to see that you’re indeed getting caught up in someone else’s drama. Right now it’s imperative that you find an outlet where you can express yourself freely without feeling like you have to act a particular way. CAPRICORN — Take inventory of your habits and behaviors, Capricorn. Look to certain patterns and note the ones that do and don’t work for you. You’ll more than likely feel an urge to break free from repetition and create new paths that allow for other opportunities to come along. You may not even be consciously aware that in many ways you’re beating a dead horse. Don’t continue to waste your energy on paths that go nowhere. AQUARIUS — You may feel smothered by certain individuals and loved ones who hang on you like barnacles on a rock, Aquarius. You’re a big part of their emotional support system and they rely on you for strength. Today, however, you could get frustrated by this extra weight. You’ll more than likely want to rip those barnacles off in order to give you more breathing room. Freedom from others’ emotional baggage is the key for today. PISCES — You may end up scaring people with your dramatic, emotional outbursts, Pisces. Your behavior is likely to be erratic. The smallest things could set you off on a crazy tirade. The root of these issues probably has to do with a need to be loved, and you feel like others don’t give you the attention you think you deserve. Try not to let your happiness depend so much on others’ actions. The most important love is self-love.

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.

Habitat for Humanity closes Goleta retail space By PAUL GONZALEZ NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Habitat for Humanity of southern Santa Barbara County (Habitat Santa Barbara) has closed its retail space ReStore to focus on its affordable housing efforts. According to a Tuesday news release, Habitat Santa Barbara closed the store located at 6860 Cortona Dr. in Goleta to minimize “financial losses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.” The ReStore opened in 2012 and provided the community with an opportunity to donate and buy new and gently used items. ReStore’s inventory included appliances, furniture, and home decorations. ReStore first shutdown operations in March because of state guidelines aimed at flattening the COVID-19 curve. The store will host a clearance sale from Aug. 6 to Aug. 16 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. All items will be on sale, including the fixtures. Customers are responsible for delivery and purchases must be made in cash. The ReStore is no longer accepting donations. Habitat Santa Barbara encouraged prospective donors to give items to

other local nonprofits. The ReStore clearance sale will be conducted with COVID-19 health and safety guidelines in place. Shoppers must wear masks and gloves to enter the ReStore building. “Closing the ReStore has been a difficult decision, but it will allow us to provide a deeper focus on our mission delivery. We do this by building new homes and selling them at an affordable mortgage, as well as repairing homes to aid individuals with health and safety (issues), allowing people to stay in their homes longer,” a Habitat Santa Barbara statement read. “This pivot will allow our 20-

year history to continue so that we can keep building homes, communities, and hope,” the statement read. Habitat for Humanity ReStores are available in San Luis Obispo and Ventura. Habitat Santa Barbara was founded in 2000 to provide resources for individuals and families to build and improve “a place to call home.” “We work towards our vision by building strength, stability, and self-reliance in partnership with community members in need of decent and affordable housing,” a Habitat Santa Barbara statement read.

The organization provides home improvement educational programs on the finances of home ownership. “Our home repair programs allow for community members to live in a healthy and safe home, which is more important than ever,” the report read. It continued that the repair program allows seniors to age in their home. Habitat Santa Barbara has built 22 new homes for 84 people, including 42 children, and helped build and repair 150 homes across the South County. Habitat Santa Barbara officials stressed that only ReStore is closing, not the whole Santa Barbara chapter. According to the statement, there are no current plans to reopen ReStore, but Habitat Santa Barbara did not completely rule out a return. “We will continue to assess the feasibility of re-opening the ReStore at a later date. The high cost of suitable retail space, coupled with the uncertainty around social distancing measures, will be big factors in that decision,” the statement read.

Aceves: ‘At the end of the day, we’re not approving this’ GOLETA

Continued from Page A1 after Mr. Kasdin spoke. Mayor Pro Tempore Kyle Richards and Councilmember Roger Aceves staunchly opposed the request and both were set to vote no on the adoption. “Given the information that we have and the deliberation and this discussion, I’m inclined not to support this because I don’t think that this is the appropriate land use designation for this parcel,”

Pro Temp Richards said. “At the end of the day, we’re not approving this … so, if we are going to postpone this, I would hope that we do it with a date certain, that you have all the questions that you want out there so staff can come back. I think the owner deserves a response from us, other than let’s wait to see what research tells us,” Mr. Acevas said. Mayor Paula Perotte added that it wouldn’t be fair to keep Mr. Mikaelian waiting, as there’s also a possibility the council would not

have all its questions answered in the allotted time anyway. Mr. Kasdin countered back, saying that it is in everyone’s best interest to at least fully explore the idea. “He’s waited 40 years. The idea that he’s eager to see a rejection now (doesn’t make sense) when it means a lot to him. I wouldn’t say we owe it to him to fully explore the issue and fully explore the context, but I would suspect that he would rather have us have complete information and a full understanding of the implications

of his request,” Mr. Kasdin said. Mr. Kasdin, who also received support from council member James Kyriaco for a continuance, also made it clear that he did not want a continuance as a form of killing the project, but rather to genuinely collect more information. After a bit more conversation, it was Mr. Mikaelian who requested a postponement until October. The council then voted unanimously to accept his request. email: jmercado@newspress.com

State Street promenade ‘makes it so much more pleasurable’ salons

Continued from Page A1 As she was getting a manicure, a Santa Barbara woman who just chose to give her first name, Sonia, called SB Nail Bar’s outdoor setup “amazing.” She remarked that hair and nail salons being able to move some of their services outdoors is not only a great boom for the aesthetic and beauty industry, but a change that greatly enhances the outdoor vibe of the State Street promenade. Sonia added that she is yet another name to add to the list of local residents who hope the temporary promenade setup on State Street turns permanent. Since social distancing is currently the norm, she feels the feeling of connectedness it brings is especially needed now. “It makes it so much more pleasurable … You get to see people, you don’t feel so distanced,” she said. Palm Springs resident Rebecca Alcorn was also at SB Nail Bar on Tuesday morning and as she received a pedicure was also taking notes for how to move her salon Visions Organic Hair Studio outdoors. Ms. Alcorn came up to Santa Barbara yesterday to relax for a day after her hair salon was forced to close for a second time. She and her friend went to State Street after hearing it was the best place in town to go shopping, and they happened upon SB Nail Bar. Seeing the nail salon’s outdoor setup was a revelation for her.

“As soon as we saw this nail salon we thought, ‘Oh my god, here it is, they’ve got the right idea,’” she said. Ms. Alcorn said she will be back in Palm Springs tomorrow to open her outdoor salon. Though hair salons that meet the necessary local criteria for moving outdoors are now free to do so, The Barbershop at 1233 State St. won’t be open for a couple of days. In an interview with the News-Press, owner Jorge Salgado said that he is awaiting approval from the county of Santa Barbara to move barber chairs onto the sidewalk outside his shop. Mr. Salgado did this without authorization last week when Gov. Newsom announced that hair salons had to cease indoor operations. However, that didn’t last long. As the News-Press reported, 24 hours after he and his employees started giving haircuts outdoors, Mr. Salgado was greeted by a member of the Santa Barbara City Attorney’s Office who told him he had to get a permit from the Board of Cosmetology to move his shop’s services outside. Though the new guidelines permit qualifying businesses to reopen now, Mr. Salgado is taking a few days to play it safe by confirming permission with the county to ensure he can cut hair outdoors with no further complications. Putting a couple of barber chairs on the sidewalk outside his shop will only sustain Mr. Salgado’s business and the owner said the arrangement “is not going to pay the bills.”

He expects that setting up chairs outside and putting them back inside at the end of the day will both respectively take an hour, losing him time that could be spent with clients. Though he likes the idea of cutting hair outside, it’s a bit more labor intensive than he originally thought it would be. “It’s going to be a little more work than all of us anticipated,” he said. In the outdoor barber chairs, Mr. Salgado and his employees will only be providing haircuts, no color or chemical services. The latter are conducted by the Victorian Salon that operates at the back of the barbershop space. Mr. Salgado lamented that COVID-19 pandemic will likely mark the end of The Barbershop and Victorian Salon sharing the same space. The salon’s head aesthetician might be leaving soon for somewhere she can actually conduct business amid the pandemic. “I might have just lost her because she needs to work and she’s thinking about going a different route with business,” Mr. Salgado said. Though having to conduct business outdoors has no shortage of challenges, Mr. Salgado is grateful that it’s even an option, and for that he thanks Santa Barbara. “Not all the counties have this great weather, so I feel for the people in L.A., and inland. It’s going to be too hot for them to work outside,” he said. email: jgrega@newspress.com

Campbell leads Foresters to resounding win over Bakersfield By GERRY FALL NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

If the Bakersfield Braves see the Santa Barbara Foresters again, it will be too soon. At least from the Braves’ perspective. Oklahoma State freshman right-hander Justin Campbell was brilliant on the mound and Matt McLain drove in three runs from the leadoff spot to lift the Foresters to a 13-0 win on Tuesday night at Pershing Park. Santa Barbara’s victory was its second against Bakersfield this summer. The Foresters embarrassed the Braves, 35-2, at Pershing Park on July 4. Campbell enjoyed his finest outing this summer with Santa Barbara. The 6-foot-5, 230-pound righty struckout 14 batters in six innings of work to earn the win. Campbell allowed just one hit, a single by Jacob Ruley to open the game, and he walked just one. At the plate, McLain led the Foresters’ attack by going 4-for6 with three runs batted in. The talented UCLA shortstop put the finishing touches on Santa Barbara’s eight-run seventh inning with a three-run homer to center field. It was McLain’s fourth home run of the summer. At the bottom of the Santa Barbara lineup, Omar Veloz, batting eighth in the lineup,

Born on Christmas Day in 1924, Betty Leigh was the beloved daughter of Mary Margaret Duvall Sumner of New Orleans, LA and James Lester Moran of White Plains, NY. She graduated from Barnard College on D-Day June 6, 1944, attended Columbia Law School, and finished her Juris Doctorate at the University of Arizona. While she was practicing law as a title company attorney in Tucson, Betty Leigh met the love of her life, C.R. Fuentes, at early morning Mass. They married in November 1960 and had 43 happy years together. Daughters Maureen and Noël became their vocation. Faith was life and air for her, exemplified by her 25 years of dedicated teaching of Catholic religious education, ministering to the homebound, and joyfully attending daily Mass. Devoted to the Blessed Mother, her rosary was never far from her hands. Betty Leigh was known for her loving manner, contagious smile, and witty jokes. Always looking out for others, she would take food, make phone calls, and invite for holidays anyone who needed to be reminded of how much they are loved by God. She was a grace and a gift to so many people and will be deeply missed by her loving and grateful family and many friends. She leaves daughters Maureen Espinoza (Fernando) and Noël Fuentes, and granddaughters Megan Leigh, Lisa Ann, and Michelle Elizabeth, each of whom bears their grandmother’s name. Contributions in her memory can be made to The “Elizabeth Fuentes Religious Education for Children Scholarship” at San Roque Church, 325 Argonne Circle, Santa Barbara, CA 93105.

LANGE, Louise Maria 1945 – 2020 Louise Maria Lange, 75, of Chico, died peacefully at home on July 13, 2020, in the company of dear friends. Louise was born April 6, 1945, in Sedalia, MO, to Paul Gerhardt Lange and Frances Louise Donaldson Lange. As a young adult, Louise lived in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

The couple returned to the United States in 1982, and settled in Santa Barbara, CA, where Louise assisted her husband in real estate. They lived there for 27 years. At 50, Louise learned to drum and played at many local events. In 2009, they retired to Chico, CA, where they joined the local music culture and made many friends. In 2016, Richard preceded Louise in death. Louise leaves behind a cousin, Greg Lange (Leslie), of Jackson, CA; brother-in-law Harry Moore of British Columbia, Canada; and nephew-in-law Wesley Moore (Kim) of Alberta, Canada.

finished 2-for-3 with four runs batted in. Incoming UCSB freshman player Nick Oakley, a former Santa Barbara High standout, also had a productive night for the Foresters. Oakley delivered a two-run pinch-hit single in Santa Barbara’s eight-run seventh, and he had a hit in his next atbat to finish 2-for-2. Not to be outdone by any of his teammates, University of Oklahoma freshman third baseman Peyton Graham reached base in all five of his plate appearances on Tuesday. Grahan finished 2-for-2 with two runs batted in and two runs scored. It was Santa Barbara’s sixth win in its last seven games. The Foresters are 16-3 this season.
