Barbara Tellefson refused to take “no” for an answer. Known for her tenacity and energy, the Santa Barbara County hero reached for seemingly impossible goals. And she succeeded. Her efforts over the years meant everything to everyone from low-income families to those affected by disasters such as the Montecito debris flow and Thomas Fire. Her determination led her to found Unity Shoppe, a nonprofit that has helped struggling families to put food on their table and clothes on their back. Her vision led to a nonprofit known for treating people with dignity and allowing them to choose what they needed. Ms. Tellefson died Sunday from a terminal illness. The Santa Barbara resident, who was the Unity Shoppe founder, president and director of operations, was 84. And it’s safe to say there was no one like her. “There will never be another Barbara Tellefson in our town,” said Jelinda Devorzon, the 2019 Santa Barbara Woman of the Year and an advocate for Unity Shoppe, in a statement Tuesday. “She was a force of nature, but not one that ever sought the spotlight. “Instead she poured all of her energies into working behind the scenes, enabling Unity Shoppe to grow and develop a physical footprint where our community’s low-income families, seniors, the disabled and disaster victims could receive a broad range of services when experiencing a crisis event,” Ms. Devorzon said. Tom Reed, the Unity Shoppe executive director, praised Ms. Tellefson for her great legacy in a statement Tuesday. “Unity Shoppe’s Board of Directors, management team and staff intend to keep the doors of Unity Shoppe wide open and its services free of charge to Santa Barbara residents in need for

years to come, which was her final wish.” Ms. Tellefson impressed many people in the community including News-Press CoPublishers Wendy McCaw and Arthur von Wiesenberger. “The memory of Barbara and her love for the community is something we will always treasure,” they said Tuesday. Montecito singer Kenny Loggins worked with Ms. Tellefson in starting and promoting the longtime nonprofit. “I knew her for 37 years,” Mr. Loggins told the News-Press Tuesday. “Without her, there wouldn’t have been a Unity Shoppe. It was really her vision.” Mr. Loggins said he helped Ms. Tellefson to raise Unity Shoppe’s profile and gave her computers in the beginning to help her keep track of the people she was serving. But the singer stressed that Unity Shoppe was Ms. Tellefson’s vision. “It was really Barbara all the way,” Mr. Loggins said. “We had a board of directors for a period of time, and there were things that they considered to be impossible. But because of her vision and her tenacity, she just kept going, and she made things happen including buying the buildings that housed Unity. “She was just an incredibly generous, loving person,” he said. “That’s the Barbara I knew.” Mr. Loggins said Ms. Tellefson was determined to reach her goals. “She didn’t want people to tell her ‘no.’ I think that’s the nature of people in her position who make things happen, especially in that kind of area where things that have been done before seem impossible to those without that vision.” Mr. Loggins praised Ms. Tellefson for her vision of arranging Unity Shoppe as a store where people pick up, at no cost to them, what they feel they need — as opposed to others making those decisions for them. He said that vision was more efficient and more respectful of

people’s dignity. Ms. Tellefson elaborated on Unity Shoppe’s philosophy in a 2018 News-Press interview after the tragic Montecito debris flow. People affected by disasters need time to figure out what they need, and that’s where Unity Shoppe comes in, Ms. Tellefson said. “Most people are not going to ask for very much until they process everything.” In a 2019 News-Press interview, Ms. Tellefson explained how her empathy for others came from personal experience. She said that as a single mother, she received services from various groups but didn’t feel fully independent or understood. She said she wanted to give people a voice so they could take care of their own families. “I wanted them to be the heroes, not us,” Ms. Tellefson said. “Giving is very complicated,” she explained. “Giving is not about making you feel good. It’s about making the person you want to help feel good. We need to do what’s best for the whole.” Ms. Tellefson understood that there would always be people affected by temporary crises and in need of help, said Pat Hitchcock, director of donor relations at Unity Shoppe. “Particularly in the last year, she was intent on making sure Unity Shoppe would be able to sustain its current and future operation of critical programs in a stable and debt-free manner.” During the COVID-19 pandemic, Ms. Tellefeson worked to help residents, especially after 25,000 hourly wage residents lost their jobs and were desperate for groceries to survive. She found a way to manage the need for free, nutritious groceries in a safe manner, and Unity Shoppe on Tuesday reported it was prepared to safely feed thousands of more residents throughout 2021. Each year, Unity Shoppe serves around 20,000 people who are referred by more than 300 nonprofits. It operates its grocery and

La Paloma Café officially opens Former site of Paradise Café returns to its roots By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

“Without her, there wouldn’t have been a Unity Shoppe. It was really her vision,” said Montecito singer Kenny Loggins, who worked with Barbara Tellefson to promote Unity Shoppe.

The grand opening of La Paloma Café on the corner of Anacapa and Ortega streets officially took place on Tuesday. After the closure of Paradise Café, a classic American restaurant that sat in that spot for 37 years, Acme Hospitality brought it back in hopes of returning to Santa Barbara’s culinary history. The legendary neon sign will again glow, reading “La Paloma Café,” and the institution will be a tribute to the cuisine of the Californios, early California settlers who incorporated Spanish and Mexican influences into indigenous ingredients cooked over fire.

The menu reflects the past and present of the region in honor of the age of the ranchero. The Café uses barbecue traditions of Santa Maria along with inspiration from Baja from the mid-1800s, including fiestas put on by vaqueros who ran the local cattle ranches. Executive Chef Jeremy Tummel will lead the café’s culinary team. Chef Tummel is well-known throughout the Central Coast from his time at Wine Cask, Bacara Resort & Spa, Pebble Beach Company, the Rosewood Miramar Beach, Santa Barbara City College Culinary Academy and The Bear and Star in Los Olivos. He’s a third-generation Santa Barbara native and part Chumash Please see la paloma on A7

The center also has seasonal shops and a “Work, Learn & Earn” volunteer training program for young adults and the disabled. At 1207-09 State St., Unity operates programs such as Job Smart for adults in need of interview clothes and employment support. Unity Shoppe is currently in need of $5.5 million to complete the establishment of its physical imprint. Before her passing, Ms. Tellefson made a final pledge of the first $500,000 toward the goal. Mr. Loggins said the goal is to pay Unity Shoppe’s mortgage and secure its future. Residents who would like to honor Ms. Tellefson’s pledge can make donations at www. unityshoppe.org or by calling Ms. Hitchcock at 805-979-9511.

The six military bases selected as candidate locations for the U.S. Space Command headquarters were announced on Nov. 19 by the Department of the Air Force, and none of them included Vandenberg Air Force Base in Lompoc. The six finalists included: Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado; Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico; Patrick Air Force Base in Florida; Redstone Army Airfield in Alabama; Joint Base San Antonio in Texas; and Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska, according to national media reports. Although Vandenberg was originally a top three finalist for the headquarters, the reason behind the decision to nix Vandenberg has not yet been revealed. Ann Stefanek, the chief of Air Force media operations, told the News-Press that the evaluation criteria were organized into four factors to compare all nominated communities and inform the down-select decision for candidate locations.

Those four factors include: mission related, “assessment of the community’s available qualified workforce, proximity to mutually supporting space entities, ability to meet emergency requirements and proximity to a regional airport”; infrastructure capacity, “assessment of proposed location’s ability to support infrastructure requirements to include facility and parking space, communications bandwidth and redundancy, energy resilience, Anti-Terrorism/ Force Protection, security requirements, and an assessment of the nearest Department of Defense installation’s ability to provide medical support, childcare, military housing, and transportation”; community support, “assessment of the degree to which a nominating location supports military families as measured by the quality of schools, professional licensure portability, cost of living, housing affordability, and access to military/veteran support programs”; and costs to the Air Force, “assessment of the one-time infrastructure and transportations costs, area Please see vafb on A8

Continued from Page A3 art spanning 2,500 years from all seven continents and tells the story of grit and perseverance of women in the arts while celebrating their incredible artistic talents. “Bill and I are delighted to select the nurses of Northwell Health as the first beneficiaries of Nurse Heroes and the ‘Women Who Dared’ collection for their legacy of contributions to the communities they serve and the distinguished service provided by their frontline healthcare and nursing professionals during the COVID crisis,” said Ms. Nicholson. “About 90% of the world’s nurses are women. There is an urgency to supporting our nurses and their families as we face a rapidly accelerating shortage of nurses around the world. If nothing changes, within three years we will have about 1 million fewer nurses than we need in the United States and 2 million fewer than needed in Europe, and it’s a similar story in countries everywhere.” Northwell Health is one of the largest healthcare providers in

the U.S. and the largest in New York. During the COVID-19 crisis, Northwell Health has been at the epicenter, providing medical care to more than 100,000 COVID patients with the support of a team of 77,000 employees, including over 3,300 physicians and 20,000 nurses. “Nurses are the lifeblood of the medical community. Their compassion, dedication and empathy are critical to helping our sickest and most vulnerable heal,” said Michael Dowling, president and CEO of Northwell Health. “Yet we are currently facing a shortage of nurses in the United States. This is a crisis we must address now, and funds raised from the Nurse Heroes concert will go toward continuing education scholarships for nurses and future nurses.”

“Together we can change the future. With this concert, we will help NurseHeroes.org fund programs,” said Emilo Estefan, the Grammy winner producing the “Nurse Heroes Live!” Concert.

Chester

hester has lost weight and is now displaying feats of athleticism. The 10-year-old tabby is awaiting adoption through Animal Shelter Assistance Program in Goleta. A favorite of the shelter staff, Chester has had the nickname of “Double Deuce” because he weighed 22 pounds when he arrived. He’s now on a diet and can be proud of his slimmer profile. And Chester loves attention. He rewards signs of love with big purrs and kneading with his big paws. Like many of the ASAP cats during the pandemic, Chester may move to a foster home but remains available for adoption. For an adoption application

&RQFHSWLV 3X]]OHV 'LVW E\ .LQJ )HDWXUHV 6\QGLFDWH ,QF

ARIES — Sticks and stones may break your bones, but names will never hurt you, Aries. The problem with the energy today is that there may be some sticks and stones tossed in your direction. Be on the lookout for such objects. There are powerful forces operating that are charged with emotional aggression. War may break out if you aren’t careful. Try to maintain the peace. TAURUS — Emotionally, things might get rather tense for you as others tend to demonstrate a selfish attitude, Taurus. Selfishness doesn’t always have to be considered a negative. Sometimes it’s healthy and necessary to take a more selfcentered stance. You need to take care of yourself at all times. So, don’t try to pick a fight when other people also demonstrate this behavior. GEMINI — You might be stirred by the energy present in the air today, Gemini. Put on your armor and get ready to do battle. Others may cower when they look out their window and see what’s going on outside, but you want to jump into the fray. Strong, aggressive emotions are the weapons of the day, and everybody knows that you have quite an arsenal in this department. CANCER — Move in for the touchdown today, Cancer, and don’t stop until you succeed. Don’t let other people’s insecurities become yours. Have confidence in yourself and the way you behave around others. Just because someone else feels sad doesn’t mean you have to, just to make them feel better. The best thing you can do in this situation is turn it around by exhibiting sheer happiness. LEO — Now is the perfect time to say something to someone that you’ve been meaning to say for quite some time, Leo. Get it out in the open. Keeping it inside will only eat away at you. Stop worrying about the consequences and make the move. Today is the time to be bold and aggressive. Other people might respond in a similar fashion, so if you dish it out, be prepared to take it. VIRGO — Your opinions might be the topic of conversation all day, Virgo. You have a very strong will and you aren’t afraid to express it. Today you will get that chance. Feel free to enlighten others with your tremendous wealth of knowledge. Take control of the conversation and accept the mental challenge of trying to win +*#!2 +1$)"$ other people over to your side.

CODEWORD PUZZLE %\ 'DYH *UHHQ

HOROSCOPE Whether you’re successful or not, you will have fun trying. LIBRA — Your sensitive heart may be sparked by anger today, Libra. Don’t be afraid of hurting other people’s feelings. You’d be doing yourself and others a disservice by not revealing the true scope of your emotions. The other parties involved may not have all the facts necessary to make the most educated decision. Aid in this process by revealing your perspective. SCORPIO — You might feel a great deal of physical power on a day like today, Scorpio. If someone asks you to come help move a couch, you’re likely to be able to pick up the whole thing by yourself. Don’t sell yourself short. You have more internal strength than you reveal to others. There’s no need to hide it any longer. Feel free to make use of this great power you possess. SAGITTARIUS — The ship is headed out, so you’d better hop on board, Sagittarius. People aren’t apt to be too sympathetic to your emotional sob story today, so keep it under wraps. Whining will get you kicked off the boat altogether. Today’s energy is teaching you to toughen up. Don’t take it personally. Realize that there are important lessons we all need to learn. One of them is to know when to be silent. CAPRICORN — You’ll want to jump into action today, Capricorn. Feel free to order others around for a change and delegate. An aggressive approach is exactly what’s called for, and you have the ability to deliver the goods. Trying to do everything yourself may seem like a great idea at first, but you’re better off enlisting help so others can feel involved and you can concentrate on doing a better job on fewer tasks. AQUARIUS — Guard your heart today, Aquarius, for it’s a prime target of the abrasive words flying around. Your sensitive nature feels alone and vulnerable in this harsh atmosphere, so you might be better off just staying in bed. If you decide to go out, make sure to bring your arsenal. Use your sensitivity to your advantage. Scope out your weaknesses so you’re able to use your energy most efficiently. PISCES — We need to have more people like you in places of power, Pisces. And don’t feel like it’s out of the question. Today’s astrological weather is helping you find the confidence and physical strength you need to boost your leadership abilities. This is the time to take control of the situation. You can do it!

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.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call, (800) 758-8052 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site, www.homesearch.com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 9948-4955. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Three games canceled as UCSB women’s coach tests positive for COVID-19 By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

UCSB has canceled its first three women’s basketball games of this season after learning that one of its coaches tested positive for COVID-19. The Gauchos, who had three players including AllAmerica center Ila Lane opt out of the season because of the coronavirus, were to play

their opener on Saturday at the University of San Diego. UCSB was also forced to scratch its home opener of Dec. 3 against Pepperdine and its Dec. 8 contest at UCLA. A university statement said that, “Per university protocol, the coaching staff will quarantine for 14 days and will resume in-person activity when it is deemed safe by medical professionals.” The coach who tested positive

was not identified. The Gauchos’ only other nonconference game is scheduled for 5 p.m on Dec. 11 at the Thunderdome against Cal Baptist. A university spokesperson said “schedule adjustments will be announced at a later date.” UCSB hasn’t played a women’s basketball game since its lastsecond victory at Hawaii in last year’s regular-season finale. The Gauchos, who had won five of

their last six games, were seeded No. 2 for the Big West Conference Tournament when the event was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Lane, a 6-foot-4 freshman, was a big part of UCSB’s fast finish. She ranked first in the nation in rebound average (13.0 per game) and 18th in field-goal percentage (57.6%). She also led the Gauchos in scoring (15.3 points per game) to earn Big West

Freshman of the Year and FirstTeam honors. Also opting out for this year are redshirt freshman guard RyAnne Walters and redshirt sophomore guard Kiana Vierra. “We said from the beginning we would support and respect every player’s decision regarding returning to campus or staying home,” coach Bonnie Henrickson said. The NCAA announced earlier

Santa Maria nurse places second on ‘Jeopardy!’ By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Emily Brogren, a registered nurse from Santa Maria, competed on Thursday night’s episode of “Jeopardy!” and placed second. Andy Wood, the reigning winner, placed first again. His total going into the Final Jeopardy was $19,000, and Ms. Brogren’s was $13,600. She had 15 correct answers and one incorrect. The episode was filmed prior to the death of iconic “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek. He hosted the show for 37 years, since its debut on syndicated television.

Mr. Trebek died Nov. 8 after a battle with Stage Four pancreatic cancer. The last episode he hosted will air Dec. 25. “Jeopardy!” announced the show’s first interim host Monday: Ken Jennings. He won $4,522,700 over the course of 75 games (which means he won 74 games consecutively), four tournaments and a challenge. During Jeopardy’s IBM Challenge in 2011, he beat Brad Rutter but lost to a computer named Watson. There was a recent push by fans to make LeVar Burton, “Reading Rainbow” host and engineer Geordi La Forge on “Star Trek: the Next Generation.” A Change.org petition has gathered over 105,000 signatures.

Mr. Burton shared a link to the petition in a tweet saying, “Even if nothing comes from it, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate all y’alls love and support!” “Jeopardy!” has a weekly audience of 24 million viewers and is the top-rated quiz show on television. It is produced by Sony Pictures Television and distributed by CBS. It holds the Guinness World Record for receiving the most Emmy Awards presented to a TV game show, and it was honored with a Peabody Award for “celebrating and rewarding knowledge.” For more information, visit Jeopardy.com. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Community Health Centers of the Central Coast awarded CenCal Health has recognized Community Health Centers of the Central Coast as the top federally qualified health center and the Del Valle clinic in Santa Maria as the top family practice. Dr. Jeffery S. Kaplan of Santa Maria is the top pediatrics provider, and Dr. Eric Levy of Santa Maria is named top internal medicine provider. Both earned their titles for two consecutive years. Other local providers recognized are Lompoc Health, Dr. Himat Tank in Santa Maria, Jackson Medical Group in Santa Barbara and Goleta, Santa Barbara Neighborhood Clinics and the Santa Barbara Public Health Department. CenCal Health, the publicly sponsored Medi-Cal health plan for Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties, awards local physicians and healthcare centers annually through its Primary Care Providers Incentive Top Performer Awards.

awards during a time when CenCal Health members and all people need their healthcare institutions to do the right thing at the right time,” said Dr. Steve Clarke, CHC medical director. “Nowhere was this truer than at our Del Valle Clinic.” A few days into the state lockdown, CHC predicted that Northwestern Santa Maria would become the COVID-19 epicenter for Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties. Staff members created a viral evaluation center in a large part of the clinic and outfitted volunteers in personal protective equipment. “Ever since, the Del Valle Clinic has tirelessly cared for thousands of panicked patients in a prompt, effective and culturally honoring manner,” he said. CHC’s history goes back to 1978 when it set up practice in a small Nipomo office with seven employees and a part-time, volunteer doctor. Now, it employs over 800 people in 31 clinics, providing over 450,000 appointments annually. It serves a variety with an emphasis on underserved populations, like the homeless, migrant and seasonal farm workers and publichousing residents. Its clinics include family practice, pediatrics, internal medicine and OB/GYN physicians. It also employs dentists, optometrists, chiropractors, dietitians and more. “On behalf of everyone at CenCal Health, I would like to congratulate all our PCP Top Performers. We deeply appreciate the quality care that our PCP partners give to our valuable members,” said Terri Howell, CenCal Health provider services director. “CenCal Health is dedicated to improving the health of the most vulnerable and underserved people in our communities, and we cannot care for our members without our trusted provider partnerships.” — Annelise Hanshaw conductor, Paolo Bortolussi, flute, and Corey Hamm, piano.

the best stories yet. “Last year, she had a good shot at becoming a league champion (in swimming). But COVID hit and we didn’t have that opportunity.” Amberger earned awards in water polo for best defensive player in 2019 and for most improved player last season. “My freshman year, we had a really good goalie, Sophie Trumbull,” she said. “Watching her, she was just amazing.” Roth’s tutelage also accelerated her development. “He is an amazing coach,” Amberger said. “He’s really dedicated and he’ll take time out of his day for you, going to tournaments with us on Monday nights and driving us back at like 12 at night. “It makes you really want to work hard for him. That’s what really brings our team up — everybody working for each other.” That included the injured Christian, who’s now playing for Fresno State. “She really stepped up and coached me at games, at practices, and I wouldn’t be where I was without her having my back the whole time,” Amberger said. “She was really amazing last year even though she couldn’t play. She stuck around and really helped me out.” She was named to the all-tournament team at the Santa Barbara Tournament of Champions, an event that attracts Southern California’s top teams. Amberger was also the standard bearer of an aquatics program that produced CIF-SS Academic Team Championships in swimming in 2018-19 and water polo in 2019-20. She plans to continue playing water polo next year at Pomona College. “Our whole team is pretty smart,” she said. “We can talk about things and act upon them quickly. A play can be drawn up quickly and we’ll understand it. “That always helps, just being around these really amazing young women who are all superbrilliant, both in the water and out of the water. It’s fun being in classes with them, working on stuff together, and then we come to practice and work some more together.” email: mpatton@newspress.com

‘It’s been a very smooth launch’

Amberger stepped up to the head of the class for San Marcos water polo San Marcos High girls water polo needed a quick fix last year when star goalkeeper Riley Christian suffered a season-ending injury. But they did have a quick learner to replace her in Zosia Amberger. Amberger, whose play helped the Royals reach the semifinals of last year’s CIF-Southern Section Division 1 championships, has been honored by the Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table as this year’s Scholar-Athlete of the Year from San Marcos. “At the beginning, she was maybe a little bit more of a learner,” coach Chuckie Roth said, “but she became an asset to our team, and we were able to change the things we did because of what she did in the cage. “She’s an amazing young girl in and out of the classroom — a more amazing person and leader to our team. She’s an active participant in everything she does.” And the senior goalie is involved in plenty of activities. Amberger, the daughter of Jerry Amberger and Natasha Chamberlain, has led San Marcos to Channel League championships in both swimming and water polo. Her versatility took her to second-place finishes in her age group at both the 2017 Santa Barbara Triathlon and the 2019 Malibu Triathlon. She is involved in San Marcos’ Accelerated Academic Program for Leadership and Enrichment Academy, serving as its community drives chairperson. She’s also the marketing chairperson for the campus’ Habitat for Humanity Club. She volunteers for the Teddy Bear Cancer Foundation’s Holiday Party Drive and as an exhibit interpreter and science communication liaison for the Santa Barbara Sea Center. Amberger has earned a grade-point average of 4.84 in such Advanced Placement courses as literature, physics, government, macroeconomics, and calculus-based physics. She’s won the California Seal of Biliteracy as well as academic honors from both the National Honor Society and the California Interscholastic Federation. She is also a two-time USA Water Polo Academic All-American Soccer was her main sport until achy knees drew her toward the aquatic sports in which her younger sister, Mia, was participating. “I started playing water polo in seventh and eighth grades, and it was kind of for fun,” Amberger said. “When I started high school, I didn’t know anybody on the team because I didn’t play club, and I wasn’t sure what was going on. “But all the seniors were super-nice my freshman year. They were really welcoming. They brought me in and kind of showed me what the program and water polo were all about. I fell in love with it, and it made me want to work harder each year.” She established herself as a sophomore and MVP of the junior varsity swim team when she qualified for the varsity’s CIF-SS Division 2 Championships. She was part of a San Marcos relay team that placed sixth in the 200 medley relay. It was the coming-out party for someone that Roth first saw “walk onto the pool deck as a timid, young graduate of the eighth grade… I was wondering where she was going to sit in this program.” “I’ve coached at San Marcos for 17 years,” Roth continued, “and I’d say she has become one of

Indian. “I feel really great about it,” Chef Tummel told the News-Press. “It’s been a very smooth launch. The team’s great, I love the food, the restaurant is beautiful — everything just feels really, really positive and I couldn’t be happier right now.” He added that he hopes there won’t be any further closures in Santa Barbara due to COVID-19. “I’m very impressed with Acme’s courage throughout this whole adventure,” he said. “It’s been kind of a rollercoaster of uncertainty, and at one point they had the decision to pull the plug or move forward and they chose to move forward and be 100% invested. “I feel that we’re taking all our precautions and that we’re safe here,” Chef Tummel said. “We have lots of outdoor dining… Between the outdoor dining and the takeout menu program, I think we’ll be OK and we’ll weather the storm.” General Manager Christy Guzman oversees the front of house operations at La Paloma, and has experience hosting, bussing, running and serving at places such as The Mandarin Oriental Miami, Conrad Miami and Waldorf Astoria Park City. She’s also held leadership roles at The Peninsula Beverly Hills, The Carlyle in New York City and Rosewood Washington, D.C. She comes from the opening general manager position at Caruso’s for the Rosewood Miramar Beach in Montecito. The featured food items at the new café include: Oak Grilled Nopales with red onion, cotija cheese, radish, corn, jicama, avocado and lemon dressing; Vegetable Pozole Verde with organic hominy, green chiletomatillo, oregano, cabbage, sweet onion and radish; Santa Maria Style Angus Tri-Tip with Santa Maria salsa, horseradish, and BBQ pinquito beans; Santa Barbara Mission Rotisserie Chicken with lemon peel, rosemary, pink peppercorn apple sauce and rotisserie potatoes; and Capirotada “bread pudding” — a beloved specialty of the original La Paloma Café — with golden raisins, almonds, Jack cheese, cream and date syrup. In addition, pescatarian and vegetarian options are available on the menu, along with support for local purveyors. The beverage program also features many classics, but with new twists. Some of the featured drinks include: the Paloma with layered elements of ginger-infused blanco tequila, bitterness from Aperol and champagne simple; the Chido Sangria; the Hibiscus Margarita, a classic margarita inspired by the hibiscus bush in front of the Café; and the Single Village Fix, with a rich pineapple taste and the mezcal smoke with a hint of agave. The wine list focuses on wines from the New World, with both local and far away selections, and wines from Spanish-speaking countries. The interior and exterior of La Paloma was designed by a local, Stephanie Greene Fuller, and Acme’s Sherry Villanueva to reflect the historical lifestyle of the Santa Barbara ranchero. The café boasts rich oak floors and tables, warm white walls and castiron details, along with the mural commissioned in 1940 by Jennie Luera, which was restored by local artist Jeffrey Skyles. Bar stools purchased by Ms. Luera in 1938 still line the bar, upholstered in cowhide, along with holophane and vaseline shade lighting from the early 1900s illuminating the bar. An extended garden patio outdoors allows for social distancing. Acme Hospitality hopes La Paloma Café will pay homage to the restaurant’s stories past, retain its familiar old-school vibe and celebrate its long history serving Santa Barbara. Dinner reservations and take-out are available from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. (to accommodate the recent 10 p.m. curfew) Thursday through Monday.

He fell in love with wine while working in fine dining restaurants in San Diego while he studied at San Diego State University. He took a few winemaking classes and was mentored by Kenneth Juhasz, Pali’s consulting winemaker. For over a decade, he has led the production at Pali Wine Company, Tower 15 Winery and Neighborhood Winery. He oversees the farming operations at Pali, as well. Ms. Liberati and Mr. Fogelman started making wine after a trip to France in 2008. The only problem was that they lived in a walkup apartment in West Hollywood. They bought Cabernet grapes from Napa and Sonoma, crushed them in the shade of their carport before bringing them into the dining room to ferment. They pressed them into wine in the kitchen and stored it in their makeshift cellar — the bedroom, kept at 60 degrees. In 2011, they fermented Pinot Noir and loved the result.

wouldn’t claim to insist that Vandenberg would ultimately succeed, but we found it a little odd that the original basing selection process resulted in Vandenberg being in the top three and then when two states complained, Florida and Texas, the process was redone.” Mr. Hackleman said that while he hasn’t seen how Vandenberg and the surrounding area ranks to other locations or the criteria to determine the best candidate, he said he thinks the process could have been politicized. “The Space Command is something President Trump created through executive authority, and I don’t know anything about these things, but I do know that California has sometimes been at odds with the president’s administration,” Mr. Hackleman said. “So the presence of that, and I would almost call it a crowned jewel achievement from the Department of Defense’s perspective, may not be something he would want in California.” However, Mr. Hackleman doesn’t think the push to land the headquarters at Vandenberg is over quite yet. He said he is confident Vandenberg will get a “thorough relook.” “I think anything can happen. From my perspective, it’s not

over yet,” he said. “We have the strong support from Congressman Carbajal, Sen. Feinstein and Vice President-elect Harris. “Keep in mind that the permanent location won’t be happening until 2026, so with the decision in 2021, that should be under the next administration, and in any event, there will be plenty of opportunity over the course of the next year for this to be looked at again,” Mr. Hackleman said. “There will at least have to be discussion of why Vandenberg’s no longer in the top three.” Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, issued a statement to the News-Press, saying he is “disappointed and surprised” that Vandenberg was removed from the list of finalists. “In fact, given our state’s leadership in aerospace engineering and innovation, I’m alarmed that there is not a single California base in the final six contenders,” Rep. Carbajal said. “I’m working with federal and local partners to understand the criteria this decision was based on, and whether it was an objective process or politically motivated. “If this is simply another attempt by the Trump Administration to bully California, that is unacceptable and I

will encourage the incoming Administration to reconsider,” he said. “This isn’t over, and I will continue to make the case that there is no better place than Vandenberg to serve as home to U.S. Space Command.” Lompoc Mayor Jenelle Osborne told the News-Press that despite the removal of Vandenberg from the short list, the collaborative nomination process was “just the beginning of our ability to advocate for the Central Coast.” “It highlights why we were the best choice for the U.S.’s newest military branch headquarters as well as the amazing region where we all proudly live and work,” Mayor Osborne said. “I am confident Vandenberg Air Force Base, Lompoc, and the surrounding communities will still be a vital part of Space Command’s mission and look forward to expanding and supporting those opportunities.” The U.S. Space Command will remain at its provisional headquarters at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado until the new facilities are built in what will likely take up to six years. Approximately 1,400 military and civilian personnel will work at the future headquarters. email: gmccormick@newspress.com

Staff hopeful cub can be reintroduced to parents successfully LION CUB

Continued from Page A2 into the lion holding area so she can be near her parents. Dr. Barnes said fully reintroducing Pauline to her parents after being separated from them in the hospital will be a challenge, even more so than usual because Pauline is Felicia’s first cub. “The likelihood of success is not as good with an inexperienced mother,” Dr. Barnes said. Dr. Barnes stated in the release that Felicia bonded very quickly with Ralph, who arrived at the zoo in May. Pairing the two lions was recommended by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums as part of its Species Survival Plan for maintaining a sustainable population of lions in North America. “As lion populations have been steadily declining in the wild, we’re proud to be a part of the conservation efforts of these majestic animals and to know that these lions are a successful breeding pair,” Dr. Barnes said. If Pauline is able to be fully reintroduced immediately, it would only be to her mother as reintroducing her to a fullygrown male lion could be very dangerous. Being parent-reared is the best possible option for a lion cub, so Dr. Barnes and the zoo’s animal care staff will attempt to reintroduce Pauline to Felicia once the cub is well enough. However, in the event that Felicia doesn’t take Pauline back, zoo staff will hand-rear the cub in close proximity to the mother. While they’ll be

On November 17, 2020 after waging a 24-year battle with brain tumors, Donnette L. Schoepke of Stevensville Mt, passed away. Surrounded in her final hours by her loving husband of 41 and a half years, her loving son Morgan, and her ever faithful Border Collie, Callie, In April of 2017 she was told she had 7-8 months to live, as all attempts to kill, or slow down the growth of her current brain tumor had failed. She informed the doctor that she intended to live to celebrate her 50th wedding anniversary, and that she would live longer than 8 months. She lived another 3 1/2 years, but in the end, succumbed to her tumor. She put up a great fight, avoided self-pity and chose to make the best of all her days, maintaining a positive attitude throughout her ordeal, and never giving up hope. She would always tell others, to “Live for today, for tomorrow is promised to no one.” She was beautiful, smart, funny, loved being around people, and dedicated her life to her son and husband. She was a hard worker, who loved animals, and spent numerous hours working with her dogs over the years. People would always comment on how well trained, and well behaved her dogs were. Donnette also had a love of flowers, and gardening. She loved landscaping and over the years, landscaped 3 different homes she lived in. Her favorite flowers were Peonies, Tulips, and Daffodils, and her current home is awash with them in spring. Donnette also had a strong sense of community and was active in the Stevensville school system. She volunteered for over 22 years touching the lives of many students at the school. She also served on the Board of Directors of the Stevensville Community Foundation, was active with the Stevensville PTA, and was a member of the Stevensville Garden Club. Donnette was born May 9, 1957 in Santa Barbara, Calif, to Donna and Carson Kittle, the 3rd child in a family that would eventually grow to 5 children. Shortly after her birth, her parents moved north to Goleta, Calif, and that is where Donnette grew up. Donnette attended Isla Vista Elementary School, Goleta Valley Jr. High School, and Dos Pueblos High School. Upon graduation from high school in 1975, Donnette attended Santa Barbara City College for 2 years and attained her AA degree. While a freshman in high school Donnette met and fell in love with the love of her life, Steven Schoepke. They started dating in August of 1972, and were married in Santa Barbara on May 5, 1979 and spent the next 41 and a half years together. After they were married, they moved to Redmond, WA to be closer to the seaports Steven was sailing out of. Their son Morgan was born in Redmond, Wa in 1984. In 1991 the family moved to Stevensville, Mt. In 1992 the construction of their dream home on Sunset Bench in Stevensville, was completed. Donnette enjoyed the views their new home provided them. She always said it had the best views in the valley of Bitterroot Mountains to the west, and the Sapphire Mountains to the east. She loved Montana. Donnette is preceded in death by her beloved mother Donna Kittle, and father Carson Kittle of Goleta Calif. She is survived by her husband Steven Schoepke of Stevensville, Mt., son, Morgan (Irena Kosarev) of Co Springs, brothers, Stephan (N.J. Covell), Gary (Sheila Atkinson), Brian (Kris Koart), all of Goleta, Ca.; sister Bonnie, of Olympia, Wa.; grandchildren, Logan, and Finely, brother- and sister-in-law, Rudy ( Helyn Inglema) of Homer, Ak, and many loving and caring nieces, nephews and cousins. Donnette requested no services but did want friends and family to gather in a celebration of her life, sometime in the future. Plans for a celebration of Donnette’s life will be announced at a later date. One will take place in Stevensville, Montana, and the other one in Santa Barbara, Ca. Our sincere appreciation goes to all those who assisted in the care of Donnette during her last 7 months here at home. In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made to Marcus Daly Hospice Services. Condolences may be left for the family at www.dalyleachchapel.com.

In 1949, Earl enrolled in the accounting program at the University of Utah, and the following year he married his best friend’s sister, Shirla Malstrom. Earl excelled in his studies, taking 16-20 units while working 50+ hours per week. Upon completing his degree, he joined the Los Angeles office of Arthur Andersen, where he became known for his insightful estate/gift planning and personal integrity. Earl and Shirla had two children before her death in 1968. In 1969, Earl married Merrilyn Hawkins, who had a son. Three years and a baby later, Earl and Merrilyn moved the “yours, mine, and ours” family of six to Santa Barbara so he could better serve his clients there. In 1981, Earl bought the Santa Barbara office from Arthur Andersen and established the present-day accounting firm of Damitz, Brooks, Nightingale, Turner & Morrisset. During those early years in Santa Barbara, Earl and Merrilyn were blessed with two more sons. Earl influenced many individuals and organizations through both his professional and volunteer work. While serving on the board of directors for United Way of Santa Barbara County in the 1970s, Earl proposed and helped develop its first planned giving program. Brigham Young University and BYU-Hawaii also benefitted from his expertise in charitable giving. In 1974, BYU President Dallin H. Oaks acknowledged Earl’s service with the prestigious President’s Award. An active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Earl served as a stake missionary, seventies group leader, young men leader, ward executive secretary, and member of the California Ventura Mission presidency. He also enjoyed participating in his sons’ scouting activities. Hiking, canoe building, river rafting: you name it, Earl did it. Playing golf with his kids was another favorite pastime—even his daughter got her own set of clubs before she was twelve. The family took many trips together, but Earl and Merrilyn’s true home away from home was Laie, Hawaii. In addition to serving an LDS mission at the Polynesian Cultural Center, they regularly attended an annual week-long tax institute on the Island. Wanting to share their love for Polynesia with their posterity, Earl and Merrilyn generously facilitated the entire group gathering in Laie for the 30th Annual Damitz Family Reunion in 2017. Earl Damitz was, above all else, a family man. Perhaps his greatest achievement was the way he put his family first, evidenced by his coming home like clockwork for family dinner, even in the middle of tax season. The fact that his family has always loved to spend time with each other--and looks forward to the day when they all can be together again--may be Earl’s most lasting and cherished legacy. Earl is survived by his wife, Merrilyn Damitz, and five children: Shauna (Scott) Barrick, Earl, Jr. “Ed” (Jane) Damitz, John (Tiffany) Damitz, David (Carrie) Damitz, and Daniel (Christine) Damitz, seventeen grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents; his first wife, Shirla; his brother, LeRoy; and his son, Jason. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that gifts be made in memory of Earl Damitz to the Endowment for United Way of Santa Barbara County, which Earl spearheaded in the 1970s. (www.unitedwaysb.org) between Fri., July 5 thru Mon., July 8, the deadline is Wed., July 3 at 12 noon

SCHOEPKE, Donnette

separated, Pauline and her parents will still be able to see of each other. Dr. Barnes explained that this is important because lion cubs who are hand-raised by humans without any connection with other adult or cub lions tend to end up with behavioral issues when they grow up. Should reintroducing Pauline to Felicia immediately not be possible, Pauline would be raised in proximity of her parents and within sight of them, but not physically connected within the enclosure. With this arrangement, zoo staff will monitor how Pauline’s parents respond to the cub. While reintroducing a cub to its mother first is the usual course of action, Dr. Barnes said there actually are sometimes instances where the father responds better to the cub. “There have been situations where the male has actually been the better case for reintroduction than the female,” she said. Whichever parent is the better one for a delayed reintroduction, Pauline will not be reintroduced to them until she has grown to between 3 to 6 years of age. For now, the primary concern of zoo staff is for Pauline to continue gaining strength and putting on weight. According to the press release, the cub and her mother will be “behind the scenes” for approximately eight weeks before making their official public debut, viewing information for which will be announced when it becomes available.
