Life’s challenges are meant to teach us. By Janna Slye Sierra Bonita PR
E
aston Thomas is a delightful boy who brightens up any room he walks into. Like most first-graders, he loves sports, outdoor activities, and playing with friends. He is affectionately referred to as “cool Easton” by his teacher, upon Easton’s request. He is also a six-year-old who happens to be defying many odds. Easton has a rare genetic disorder called Hunter’s Syndrome or MPS II. His body lacks an enzyme that helps break down long chain sugars called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the body. These sugars or GAGs build up over time in all of the cells in his body causing multiple organ complications and failures. These GAGs also build up in the brain causing neurological problems. However, Easton is currently involved in a seemingly successful medical trial that replaces the enzyme he lacks. The missing enzyme is inserted directly into his spinal canal which allows the enzyme to cross the blood brain barrier (there is also an intravenous enzyme replacement treatment but it does not cross the blood brain barrier). Not only is this procedure halting the progression of Easton’s disease but improving his condition. Easton is able to
Mrs. Creamer and Easton Thomas
participate in his first grade classroom with other services provided as needed. Easton is considered a medical miracle and his mom states that “he has exceeded typical expectations by leaps and bounds.” Mrs. Melissa Thomas recognizes the significance of Easton’s enzyme replacement therapy in achieving some remarkable milestones but also acknowledges the efforts of his first grade teacher as an enormous contribution to his success. Easton was assigned to Mrs. Erin Creamer’s first grade class. Many blessing have been associated with his placement in this amazing classroom. When Mrs. Creamer realized she had a student with such a rare medical condition and unique challenges, she chose to be informed. With her characteristic assertiveness and tenacity, she wrangled an entire team of school and district specialists together to

collectively discuss Easton and ensure he receive all the necessary services available. While Easton’s school team includes extraordinary experts, Mrs. Creamer is the driving force behind this outstanding team. Mrs. Thomas says “the work and dedication of Mrs. Creamer really blows me away. She has taken it upon herself to learn about the disease and find resources that I didn’t even know about.” She also states “I know that the clinical trial Easton is involved in is making medical history and the work Mrs. Creamer is doing with him is helping to accomplish many great things.” Sierra Bonita is fortunate to have such an incredible teacher and just as lucky to have this remarkable student!

Walk for Wishes, Bless Lives
By Anthony Bowden Sage Creek Elementary
As part of Red Ribbon week, the students of Sage Creek Elementary learned about doing good instead of drugs. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has personal significance to Mrs. Burr, the principal of Sage Creek, who has a son that had a wish granted. “I saw the power of a wish lift my son and our family. I now serve as an ambassador for Make-AWish and the Kids for Wish Kids Program. I have witnessed the lives of students blessed by the opportunity to sacrifice for the good of another child,” said Mrs. Burr. On Wednesday, Oct. 10th at the Walk for Wishes Assembly, students met four-year-old Brianna who suffers from leukemia and consented to be her wish granter. Sage Creek students led by the student council pledged to give up one recess a day during Red Ribbon Week of Oct. 15-19th and instead walk for

a wish. Pledge envelopes based on donations per miles walked poured back into the school. Students cheerfully and with great devotion could be seen all week walking round and round the field, while the swings and playground remained empty. With a surprise visit from Captain America and Superman dubbing them super heroes at an ending celebration assembly, the students learned that their walking efforts had paid off, raising over $3,500 to grant

Brianna’s wish. Throughout Red Ribbon Week, the students decorated drug free sacks for Reams, chalked the sidewalks with drug-free messages, wore dragon red ribbons, and walked for wishes! Brianna and her family will come back to share with the students again after her wish to go to Disneyworld comes true. Students will then get to see the joy they have brought to a little girl and her family by their sacrifice!

“We Can Do Hard Things”
H
at’s off to our Second Grade Students and their teachers, Sheri Jensen, Christine Jones, Jeanmarie Andersen, Kelsey Foster and Karlee Hansen. They welcomed their students with the theme “We
Can Do Hard Things” . Then they put them right to work and proved it! Sheri Jensen reported on the event as follows: “We walked from Mapleton Elementary School to Whiting Campground, which is approximately 7 miles total. It was a very warm day which made for a long, hot walk! I am happy to report that alll the students and parents that left with us in the morning, came home with us in the afternoon.” While at Whiting Campground they had lunch and then participated in four different science rotations. Students looked for rocks, leaves, and signs of animals and textures in nature. All Second Grade children returned knowing that they could do hard things, and on top of all that they had a great time! The following picture is Mrs. Jeanmarie Andersens Second Grade class getting ready for the 7 mile trek. Second Graders “Can Do Hard Things” --Ginnie Snyder Mapleton Elementary School

He quoted Benjamin Franklin, who said, “The Constitution and Freedom doesn’t work unless you have a virtuous society”, followed by quoting John Adams who said, “You have to have a moral and religious society for The Constitution and Freedom to work.” Paul continued to speak about freedom and that we all need to influence intellectually what happens in Washington.

onnie, Nina and I are going to boldly go where many have gone before – alone, but we intend to take you with us on our journey of preparedness. If at first it is kicking and screaming, that’s ok, we’ve raised children. What we are hoping for is that you really won’t notice that you have changed your thought process until after you have adopted a new way of looking at food storage and preparedness. We are hoping to show you that with a few small changes, a bunch of new ideas (that are easy and very reasonable) you won’t want to go back to your old ways. In making these small changes you will wake up some day and really like being prepared, it will be kind of like the day that your child discovers that he/she/it DOES like broccoli (the most perfect vegetable on the face
http://wp.me/p2Ghli-9q
of the earth – I’m a mom, I know these things, now quit complaining and eat!) Something that may have seemed distasteful at first is now welcomed and enjoyed. The three of us look at food storage a little differently than most people. We don’t think that the world is coming to an end and we don’t want to live off the grid. What we do want is to be a part of our community, but we also want to be able to take care of our families – especially during difficult times. We believe that for the majority of people the crisis that they will go through will be closer to home: loss of jobs, a downturn in the economy, too much debt, poor health and a variety of other problems. Yes, there will be community wide disasters too, you hear about them daily in the news, but being prepared for either
situation will do nothing less than give you the confidence and ability to face any problem head on and overcome challenges. We don’t want you to be afraid of the future – we want you to prepare for it and enjoy the journey and the process of getting there – and staying there. Being prepared, in all aspects of your life, for a disaster, personal, community or national is the best way to maintain peace of mind. It doesn’t mean that the disaster won’t come, but it will make it more manageable. One of my favorite sayings is: Knowledge is Power. I’m going to provide you with knowledge to empower you during a crisis, of any kind, large or small. [Article truncated see second link above.]
abstract, or title office, examined every recorded document at the county recorder’s office. Reproducing every document, they assembled them in what was known as an Abstract of Title. These abstracts would get to be several inches thick. The seller of the property would take his abstract to the title office, which would add only the necessary copies of documents to bring the ownership history of the property current. They would then give an abstractor’s opinion as to the condition of the title, ownership, liens, easements, mineral rights, etc. For further assurance as to the condition of the title, the buyer would often seek out the opinion of an attorney skilled in real estate law. After these two opinions the buyer could then be assured that everything was in order for them to receive a clear and clean title to the property.
In the early days of my real estate career most abstract companies were selling title insurance as well as providing abstracts. However, that insurance often cost more than bringing an abstract to date. The title companies saw an opportunity to take the abstracts out of circulation. If the abstract was relinquished to the title company, they would issue title insurance for a discounted premium. As a result of their efforts the old abstracts are nearly obsolete and are not an acceptable method of assuring the new owner of a clean and marketable title. I often pull out an old abstract that I have in my possession to show new agents what title insurance has replaced. It makes an interesting and educational read. Until next time keep smiling.

ear Mothergoose, Shopping for birthday presents seems so contrived! When I went to get something for my daughter’s birthday, I couldn’t think of a thing she needed. All the stuff I thought she might like was meaningless and too cheaply made to waste money on. I know all about trying to put a little thought into it, knowing she’s into Hello Kitty and all that, but it just seems like there ought to be a better way than just buying someone something because it is their special day. But you can’t not give your child birthday presents, can you?
Dear Birthday Presents, Unfortunately, in our society, not giving your child birthday presents would indeed be viewed as bordering on abuse. More so because of emotional damage that would be done when her friends came and asked, “What did you get for your birthday?” and she had to reply, “Nothing. My folks don’t really love me all that much.” It’s kind of too bad that the measure of love, in one form, consists of giving a child stuff. That seems to be the social opinion anyway. What if we could re-train our kids’ thinking so that they wouldn’t feel deprived for not getting stuff on their birthday? How would it be if parents could ignore all the requirements society places on us and do a person’s special day the way that would truly be special? Perhaps this could include surprising her in the school lunchroom with a homemade cake, (hoping the school’s sprinkler system is not
sensitive to birthday cake smoke.) Maybe we could take that child for a bike ride to play on the bridge over the waterless creek and be lucky enough to be there when the water began it’s first run in the spring. Perhaps just take the birthday girl out to attempt to bury the wriggly dog in a pile of leaves. Could we take some quiet time and read the latest Brandon Mull novel? Would a note full of memories and love be more touching than the latest action figure or PS2 game? With a world so full of materialism and the latest gadgets, would it revolutionize the way we think to consider Birthday Presence gift enough? We could be the generation to consider making the radical change. Think about it. How would it be? To share your memories of Birthday Presence, please write to mothergoose911@yahoo.com

hat is Title Insurance? I am often asked that question. Title insurance is protection against loss arising from problems connected to the title of your property. Before you purchased your home, other owners went before you. Even a newly constructed home has had land patents on it, beginning in the 1800’s in Utah. Prior to the modern title issuance policy, buyers would usually receive an Abstract of Title. The

THANKSGIVING TIME
This is a time of year to be thankful for the things we have and even for the things we don’t have. We live in a beautiful country and our area is just the same. Thanksgiving isn’t about the turkey, the football, or anything material. It’s about family, its about being grateful for the things that we have. Let’s spend a little while pondering about the blessings we have. Take a few minutes each day to reflect upon the blessings in your life. Be present, wherever you are. Give Time.

unky Fermata is pleased to share their 75 years of combined musical performance experience with you at the Sunday Concert Series on Sunday, November 18th at 5 pm. The performance is sponsored by the Springville Arts Commission and is free to the public. The performance will be at the Springville Art Museum in the Grand Gallery. They are a quartet of the Barbershop Harmony Society, a national organization that has promoted Barbershop Quartet singing for 75 years. It’s a uniquely American music form. Funky Fermata is an integral part of the Utah Valley Chapter’s choir, the Skyline Chorus. As with all respectable quartets, Funky Fermata consists of four fine gentlemen, Monte Kano, Gavin Lowry, Dallin Hill, and Daniel Hicken. Hailing
from up and down the Wasatch Front, they’re proud to represent their communities. Their repertoire varies from classic Barbershop to modern music from the Beatles and even some Disney favorites. In their time as a quartet, they’ve been featured in short documentaries, music videos, and at venues up and down the Wasatch. Monte Kano is the Lead. Hailing from the Greater Salt Lake Area, Monte is a recent convert to Barbershop, and has jumped in with both feet, making a splash locally, regionally, and in international competitions! When he’s not setting out a beautiful melody, he’s running IT. Gavin Lowry is the Bass. Orem-based programmer by day, he brings the bass harmonies to life, and builds the foundation for the chords. Gavin has sung barbershop all around the West, and has been involved in local, regional, and
international competitions. Dallin Hill is the Baritone. He precisely fills every chord and gives the harmony to make it ring. When he’s not filling in the chords, he’s caring for patients as a registered nurse for IHC or finishing the basement in his Lehi home. Daniel Hicken is the Tenor, singing notes that sometimes only dogs can hear. When he’s not hovering in the musical stratosphere, Daniel is working for a local certification company and settling into his new home of Eagle Mountain. Contact them at funkyfermata@gmail.com. Next month, the Utah Valley Hand Bell Ringers will perform at our annual Christmas Concert on Sunday, December 16th at 4:30 pm at the Museum. This year we have a special treat as they will be joined by the Sage Creek Chime Choir, a group of elementary students who are aspiring bell ringers.

On
Friday, Saturday, and Monday November 26, 27, and 29 at the Hobble Creek Golf Course Timberwolf Grill Charlie & Amy Wolf and others involved provided a charitable event for the community. Serve Daily Staff went to the event twice and enjoyed the delicious gourmet buffet. There were delicious desserts, an open fire and smores outside, and a silent auction with many gifts donated from local business. On Monday, I ran into Little Red Riding Hood and Granny/Wolf (Joshua Westover and his wife). Coming next month, a more detailed article about this event, how much money was raised, and provide a couple more pictures and one of the novelty sized check written out to the Food & Care Coalition. The goal of raising $2,000 was well surpassed. These are the types of events we need to bring our community together and support one another. Thanks, SERVE DAILY

Whet Your Palate in Spanish Fork! You’ll plan your next visit while eating your last bite!

hen you leave a restaurant feeling satisfied, that’s a good thing. When you leave wanting to return, that’s even better. Jaxies leaves you feeling satisfied and planning your next visit. It’s that good. Roger and Dee Fullerton opened Jaxies in Spanish Fork nearly five years ago. Dee has been in the food industry for many years and the two decided to do “something different.” That something different hasn’t been easy but they’ve persevered and have wonderful loyal customers. It’s easy to become one after just one visit to the fun, eclectic café. We chose a variety of paninis, wraps, salads and croissant sandwiches. Don’t miss weekend evenings when they serve succulent prime rib. At the end of our meal we struggled to pick a favorite. Each item is made fresh and some are Dee’s secret recipes like the dip. Locals have held contests to try to re-create it but to no avail. I asked Roger what most customers order. He pointed to a menu with orange dots, indicating customers’ favorites – there were a lot of dots. Jaxies Jalapeno Chicken Panini is a high demand item. If you don’t like the heat of jalapenos, don’t let this sandwich panic you. It has a jalapeno artichoke spread, so there’s just the right amount of heat, not a sweat-dripping-down-

S.F. Main Street completed
S
panish Fork (Oct. 12, 2012) — Spanish Fork business owners and city leaders celebrated the reopening of Spanish Fork’s Main Street at a ribbon cutting ceremony today. “Spanish Fork is open for business,” Spanish Fork Mayor Wayne Anderson said. “We now have a brand new interchange — a gateway to our city — and a newly widened Main Street that will improve access to businesses while keeping up with the traffic demands of our growing community.” The city widened and repaved Main Street from 1000 North to 1400 North, and the Main Street crossing under I-15 was widened and improved as part of the Utah Department of Transportation’s Utah County I-15 Corridor Expansion (I-15 CORE). In addition, construction crews on the I-15 CORE project are near completion of the Spanish Fork interchange. The new interchange combines the old interchanges at U.S. Highway 6 and Spanish Fork Main Street, with new flyover ramps and traffic signals designed to improve traffic flow and enhance safety for drivers.
Construction work on the interchange will continue through December, with periodic night ramps closures. UDOT worked in close coordination with Spanish Fork officials throughout construction to address the needs of the community, UDOT Region 3 Director Shane Marshall said. “The new interchange improves mobility not only for Spanish Fork, but for the entire region,” Marsall said. “UDOT will continue to work together with Spanish Fork City officials to address the needs of the community.” Spanish Fork City recently completed another reconstruction project nearby with the widening and repaving of 1000 North. The upgrades were necessary to accommodate growth and increased traffic between Main Street and U.S. 6. “This new interchange makes it so much easier to travel between Main Street and I-15,” Anderson said. “Whether for getting on or off the freeway or traveling under it, the new Main Street is going to be a great benefit for businesses.” - UDOT LEIGH DETHMAN Public Relations Manager

The Museum on the Move By Lauren Negus Mrs. Hadlock’s class 4th grade and Julia Murray Art City Elementary
The Museum on the Move (MoM), presented by the Museum of Natural History, visited the Fourth-grade classes of Art City Elementary School on October 1, 2012. The purpose of the MoM is so classes can look through microscopes and learn about fossilized skulls and feathers as well as rocks and other related items. In one class room the students learned about Utah animals. There were two science labs; one lab you guessed if a skull was from an herbivore, omnivore, or a meat eater. The second lab we used the microscopes to look at all different kinds of animals. Lauren said, “It was very cool and fun because we had the opportunity to learn and I love to learn and have fun, we learned a lot about really cool things about Utah animals everything was different. “ As per the MoM website these are the classes in which they offer: Rocks and minerals: Learn methods of identifying

and classifying rocks and minerals. Compare sediment samples and record and make inferences based on your observations. Utah Animals: Adaptations and Classification: Discover adaptations of Utah animals by studying physical specimens such as skulls and feathers from the Museum. Devise your own classification methods and record your data. Fossils: Evidence of Utah’s Past: Discover different types of fossils by examining specimens from the Museum’s collections. Explore what Utah looked like in distant ages and infer what fossils tell us about our state’s past. The Great Salt Lake: Uniquely Utah: Observe some of the unique adapta-
tions that plants and animals living in the habitats that make up the Great Salt Lake ecosystem have to survive. Make inferences based on observations and record your data. MoM uses highly engaging Museum specimens and practices inquiry-based instruction. MoM is made available to all public schools within the state of Utah at no charge. Funding is provided by the Utah State Legislature and by the Utah State Office of Education’s Informal Science Education Enhancement (iSEE) fund. (Quoted from http://www.nhmu.utah.edu/ mom)

History of Utah State Mental Hospital By Janina Chilton Utah State Hospital
T
he existence of mental illness is not a new one. It has probably existed as long as mankind, but the ways we perceive it and treat it have varied with time and place. In the early years of frontier Utah, the primary responsibility for the care of the mentally ill fell to the immediate family. It wasn’t until the 1860’s and the coming of the railroad to Utah that society became more complex and interwoven, and the mentally ill not only affected the immediate family unit, but also the neighbors and the larger society. It became a community problem. The Territory’s first public facility for the mentally ill was initially recommended by Salt Lake City and then funded and managed by the City. It opened in 1869 and was located near the mouth of Emigration Canyon, records show that it consisted of strong cells for violent people and small rooms for the rest. Salt Lake City managed the asylum until 1876 when it was leased to Dr. Seymour B. Young, a nephew of Brigham Young. When the Territorial Asylum open in 1885, Dr. Young’s faculty was closed and the seventeen patients housed at that facility were transferred to the new asylum. With the rapidly increasing population, the need for a larger facility was being felt. Over the years, several governors recommended the building of a territorial insane asylum. Governor George Woods, in a speech to the legislature on January 9, 1872 remarked, “We ought to have an asylum for the insane. Humanity requires it. There is

Ginny’s Genealogical Gems
By Ginny Ackerson Springville Resident
S
ome people think that the only records created at death are the death certificate and the obituary. Not so!! This is a brief summary of some of the most common records created at death. Death certificates or records of death are official records created by civil authorities and are a relatively new phenomenon. Most states did not start accurate death records until the early 1900’s. Most American probate records are created on a county or city level though there are some regional probate districts. These records mainly consist of wills, executor appointments, inventories of estates, and distribution of property and guardianship records. Wills are valuable because of the wealth of information provided about family relationships, their residences, possible ages, dates, and locations of land in their possession. A majority of the time the executor was a legatee and mentioned in the will and appointed by the testator. Will contests and heir proofs can be extremely valuable to the researcher as both name all living (and sometimes deceased heirs if they left children) and all
testimony relating to the contest or right to inherit. The courts appoint guardians if the deceased had minor children. Guardians were generally the living spouse of the deceased or another close family member. After death each estate is inventoried by court appointed persons, usually three in number. Often this is the only probate document filed for a person. When there is an estate sale, a list of each item bought, the price paid and the name of the person buying the item is listed. In older documents, the assignment of the widow’s portion of the estate for her lifetime was
called the dower. This paper mentions the full name of the wife. Accounts and final settlements are the complete listings of debts, disbursements and remaining assets of the estate filed with the court. Distribution documents can be wonderful sources of information as they list each person inheriting from the estate, their current address and their relationship to the deceased. Burial records include church, sexton’s, funeral home, tombstone and casket maker’s records. Newspapers can be search for obituaries, death notices and articles concerning the death. Coroners records include coroner’s and medical examiner’s reports along with autopsy reports. These also include the “bodies in transit” certificates created when bodies were moved from one jurisdiction to another.

no public institution where these poor unfortunates can be kept. I should fail my duty were I to omit to urge you to take such steps immediately as will meet this great public want.” Responding to public pressure, in 1880 territorial legislators finally passed legislation that officially established the Utah Territorial Insane Asylum. A team of men were designated to begin looking for a suitable location. A number of areas were considered including the old statehouse, located in Fillmore. The building had been abandoned for a new statehouse in Salt Lake City. The team finally settled on a remote swamp in Provo, which was located several blocks east of the city’s trash dump. Besides being located
far from the city center, the site also had its own water supply. The intention was that the institution was to be as self-supporting as possible and far from the rest of society. The Territory’s insane asylum opened its doors on July 15, 1885, and was to remain Utah’s only facility for mentally ill patients for the next 85 years. In the late 1960’s, the Community Mental Health Act was initiated, which supported community treatment rather than hospitalization. By the 1980’s, eleven-community mental health centers had been organized that serve clients from across the State. The Hospital serves a role in the continuum of care for those needing mental health services.

S
pringville, Utah, (Oct. 29, 2012)— The National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) today announced that Synergy from Merit Academy High School has made it to the semi-finals round of this year’s SchoolJam USA, a national teen battle of the bands aimed at encouraging teens to play music and support their school music programs. Starting Nov. 1 through Nov. 30, fans can vote daily for Synergy along with several other teen bands from across the U.S. at www.schooljamusa.com. The band that gains the most votes will automatically receive $1,000 for their school music education program. If Synergy ranks among the top eight overall scores, determined by the public vote and a panel of music judges, they will proceed to the finals round where they will compete live against seven other bands in front of a judges panel of music professionals and hundreds of fans. The finals will be held during the NAMM Show, one of the largest musical products exhibitions in the world, on Saturday, Jan. 26, 2013, in Downtown Disney located in Anaheim, California.
Reinforcing the competition’s mission to encourage active music making among teenagers, all of the eight finalist bands will receive prize money to purchase new gear for their band from a local NAMM Member music retailer of their choice, as well as additional funding for their school music programs. The winning band will also travel to Europe next year to perform at the 2013 SchoolJam Germany finals in Frankfurt.

Tammy Tolley makes quilts. She makes hundreds of quilts that are different sizes, colors, patterns, and designs, but she doesn’t do it to make money. Tammy makes quilts so that she can serve and love people in need. Just three weeks ago, Tammy came to Merit’s ASK class, with some quilts that needed to be tied and shared some of her experiences with making quilts. Tammy learned how to make quilts from watching mother, and was able to assist her in making the quilts or at least tying them, at age 12. Tammy then started to make quilts on her own, and learned new things with every quilt. Her mother didn’t just teach Tammy how to make quilts, but also gave her a reason for making them. Tammy said that her mother would always make quilts for people in need, and Tammy has carried on that family tradition ever since. Tammy has many interesting stories that she shared with us while visiting our class. One of these stories
was especially inspiring. A couple years ago, Tammy got the feeling to make a quilt for one of her friends, even though she didn’t know why. Tammy got together with a group of women and they personalized this quilt to show how much they cared for their friend and neighbor. On the day Tammy delivered the quilt, her friend told her that her son-in-law had unexpectedly passed away, and how much that quilt meant to her during her time of mourning. This story is just one of many heart warming experiences Tammy has facilitated with her quilts. Tammy says that each quilt symbolizes warmth and love. Along with her quilts,
Tammy usually includes a note that encourages the person to wrap themselves in the quilt and remember that the warmth represents how much they are loved and cared for. During the time that Tammy Tolley visited our class, we helped her tie 22 quilts. Some of those quilts went to disabled veterans and others to those in need in Zimbabwe. Not only did we have a lot of fun, but we also felt a great sense of satisfaction as we finished each quilt. We found joy in serving and witnessed the positive difference one person can make, one quilt at a time.

hat makes you want to SCREAM? In October Miss Murdock’s class at Art City Elementary, Springville, wrote about what makes them want to scream. The students studied The Scream by Edvard Munch and used similar colors, lines and movement to create their own watercolors. Using a Digital camera their picture was taken, while re-creating that famous scream face.
Students then wrote about what makes them scream and published their writing in the school computer lab. Students were able to include photography, water coloring and writing as well as using their computer and typewriting skills. These works of art are displayed outside McKell Murdock’s third-grade classroom and making all of us at Art City wonder what we would “scream” about.
