School Security Officer, Higher Ed Center Bills Pass

By Guy Leonard Staff Writer

In the waning hours of the 2018 Maryland General Assembly, local legislators were able to help push through a bill that calls for major enhancements to school security across the state and provides about $40 million to make that happen. They were also able to resurrect and pass a bill that just days before had seemed doomed to failure that will allow the merger of the Southern Maryland Higher Education Center in the University System of Maryland. Sen. Steve Waugh said putting the merger back on track took much negotiating with Sen. President Thomas V. “Mike” Miller, who had many reservations about the takeover. Funding for the much-anticipated autonomous engineering building at the higher education center, known as the third building, was still out of this year’s budget, though, at least until next year, Waugh said. “It is bittersweet,” Waugh said of the last-minute success paired with disappointment. The school safety legislation – SB 1265 – called for each school system to develop behavioral assessment teams to look for any threats posed by students. It also requires each school system to

appoint a school safety coordinator and work with their local law enforcement agencies to establish police presence or response plans for their schools. Waugh said, in essence, that counties must provide a school resource officer in every school or provide a guaranteed response time to a school in time of crisis. The bill was the product of the devastating school shooting in Parkland Fla. that claimed 17 lives in February, Waugh said, but the recent fatal shooting at Great Mills High School provided even more impetus to get the bill passed. It passed the Senate by a 43-1 vote and by a 138-0 vote in the House of Delegates. “It lent extra urgency to it and made it all the more necessary,” Waugh said. “We are leading the nation in school safety. “We have the most comprehensive and integrated plan. This is a very actionoriented school safety bill.” Gov. Larry Hogan signed SB1265, and 113 other bills, into law Tuesday. “No mom or dad should ever have to worry when they send their kids off to school whether their son or daughter is going to come home safely,” Hogan said. “I want to thank legislators on both sides of the aisle for coming together and working with us to make our schools safer.”

For the higher education center merger, amendments to the bill mandated the chancellor of the university system have the College Park campus be responsible for the direct oversight of the California campus and that the chancellor would appoint the executive director for the newly merged higher education center. The amended bill also calls for the university system and the state’s Department of Budget and Management to submit a joint report on the “capital needs of the Southern Maryland Higher Educa-

The county’s legislative delegation delivered on most of the ambitious 22-item legislative package submitted to them by the county commissioners. The most contentious bill was the one that added $50 million to the county’s bonding authority. That bill will allow the county to proceed with a new county office building at the site of the old armory at the Armory Square project in Prince Frederick. The commissioners voted 3-2 to support that project. Delegate Mark Fisher (R: 27-C) opposed the project and introduced a revised bill for only $7 million that removed the county office building. Fisher originally had Del. Michel Jackson (D: 27B) siding with him. Del. Gerald Clark (R: 29C) subsequently got Jackson to go along with him and the bill passed with the support of the majority of the county’s House delegation. Also successfully navigating through the legislative process were two bond bills -- $100,000 for the North Beach Volunteer Fire Department and $75,000 for the East-John Youth Center Pools. Both proposals will be incorporated into the state’s capital budget. Also passing the legislature was a bill

to increase the salaries of the county’s elected officials. The bill increases the salaries of the sheriff, county commissioners and county treasurer for those elected to the positions in the November election. One bill that did not make it out of committee would have given the county commissioners a say in post-employment benefits and compensation for the superintendent of schools. Another bill that failed to make it out of committee was Delegate Fisher’s proposal to exempt some personal property from taxation. Another bill that failed was the request to create an Instant Bingo License in the county. That bill stalled in the House Ways and Means Committee. A bill request submitted by the county commissioners after the rest of the legislative package would have prohibited humane organizations from going on properties and seizing animals in cruelty investigations, instead leaving that authority solely in the hands of the county’s animal control officers. The request was submitted too late to have a bill introduced this year. dickmyers@countytimes.net

Extra Monies Approved Appeals Board Upholds for School Security Zoning Administrator’s Board Funds $2 million for Schools to Match Decision

By Dick Myers Editor

The Calvert County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) has officially budgeted an extra $2 million in this fiscal year for school safety measures. The vote on the motion accepting the budget adjustment was unanimous. The monies will come from the county’s fund balance. As part of the motion, the BOCC reiterated that they want to sit down with the Board of Education (BOE) to develop a list of specific projects for the extra funding. The decision also assumes the BOE will match the grant for additional security measures. The school board, which has been under fire over the security issue, had a special work session scheduled for Wednesday, April 11 at 6 p.m. after press deadline. At its last meeting, the majority of the school board failed to second a motion by member Kelly McConkey to arm school safety officers. The failure to act prompted a citizen rally in front of

the school’s administrative offices. Commissioner President Evan Slaughenhoupt, Jr. noted that the $2 million county commitment should be spent for “physical improvements.” He said that the arming of school and police personnel in schools is part of the governor’s safety measure that was signed into law on Tuesday, April 10 (see separate story in this issue). Slaughenhoupt said the county should make sure it doesn’t duplicate the state effort. Slaughenhoupt also insisted that the school board wasn’t being given a “blank check” on how to spend the monies. Commissioner Mike Hart said his priority was: “Doors have to be done at elementary schools. Anything else would be careless.” Director of General Services Wilson Freeland said his department could quickly mobilize to do some of the work that would be included in the $2 million funding. “We are available to shorten the construction process,” he explained. dickmyers@counytimes.net

Case Involved Land in Ag Preservation District

Calvert County Board of Appeals (l to r) Chairman Daniel Baker, Jr., member Susan Hance-Wells and alternate Marcia Claggett at the April 5 meeting.

By Dick Myers Editor The Calvert County Board of Appeals has sided with a county zoning administrator’s decision in a case involving land in the Agricultural Preservation District (APD). Jimmie Smith of Back Creek Enterprises, LLC had appealed the decision of Zoning Administrator Beth Cook denying building permits for the five platted lots on the 76-acre tract of land on Sollers Wharf Road in Lusby, Smith purchased the property in 2015. His attorney Lawrence Taub argued that his client had purchased five lots of record and each lot was entitled to a building permit. Apparently, someone in the county planning office incorrectly told Smith before he purchased the property he could have five building permits. Taub read sections of the county zoning ordinance that did not discriminate among the various zoning categories in granting the rights for a lot of record, including the Farm and Forest District in which the property is included. Associate County Attorney Pamela Lucas argued that the property had been voluntarily put into an Agricultural Preservation District by the property’s former owner and thus the rights argued by Taub were forfeited. Appeals board member Susan Hance-Wells noted that the history of the APD districts clearly limited them to one house per 25 acres for the first 75 acres and no more thereafter, plus one bonus for an existing home. Even properties of 500 acres could only have three lots. Cook’s decision, dated June 19, 2017 said there were no buildable lots on the property and that it would have to

be resubdivided for building lots to be created. Cook told The County Times after the hearing that there was really only one lot at stake because Smith was ultimately entitled to four homes on the property including an existing one. During the hearing former planning director Greg Bowen testified on the history of agricultural preservation in the county; he was one of the architects of the county’s landmark policy. “I had the pleasure of seeing the program from its incubation,” he noted. The previous owner had transferred development rights from the property after it was put in an APD. Bowen said once that happened, then the APD became a permanent overlay district and the rules of that district apply. Taub argued in his closing statement that the zoning ordinance did not make the distinction for buildable lots in any district. “It applies across the board,” he said. But the appeals board unanimously voted to side with Cook’s in her decision. Before the case was actually heard, there was an extensive discussion as to whether the board had authority over the case. Lucas argued that the appeal wasn’t filed within the required 30 days from Cook’s June 18, 2017 decision. Taub argued that was not the final decision, which he said came in a letter dated November 15, 2017. The board decided to give broad latitude in hearing the case. Smith can appeal the board’s decision to the circuit court within 30 days of the decision at the April 5 hearing. Alternate Marcia Claggett sat in on the case because board member John Ward recused himself. dickmyers@countytimes.net

Nuclear Power Plant Gets a Gold Star Federal Regulators Say Plant ‘Operated Safely’

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant.

By Dick Myers Editor “Operated safely and in a manner that preserved the public health and safety and protected the environment.” That’s how the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) summarizes the operation of the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant. In a letter to Exelon Generation Company, LLC, the plant operator, NRC’s Acting Branch Chief of the Division of Reactor Projects Michelle Catts said the inspection findings for 2017 have “very low safety significance’ or are “within expected range.” The NRC categorizes those two parameters as “green,” as opposed to yellow or red, which are much more serious. Catts and other NRC officials were on hand April 4

at Springhill Suites in Prince Frederick for an open house to inform the public of the plant’s record. No formal presentation was given and only a smattering of citizens showed up. On hand to answer questions were the NRC’s resident inspectors at the plant, Rodney Clagg, who lives in St. Mary’s County and Christopher Roettgen, who lives in Calvert. Also in attendance was Exelon’s Calvert Cliffs Plant Manager Todd Tierney. The plant’s 2017 operation was not unblemished – there were two issues reported that fell within that “green” range or were not considered significant safety issues. But they still were issues that needed to be addressed by the plant operator, according to the NRC officials. Those two issues were officially described as: • Inadequate assessment of fire brigade performance during an announced fire drill, and • Exercise of enforcement discretion for pressurized safety valve found out of tolerance. Clagg explained that announced and unannounced fire drills are conducted and plant teams critique how things went. Clagg also observed the announced drill that was the subject of the violation. The issue, Clagg said, was that the evaluation team didn’t accurately report what happened during the drill. One failure was the fire brigade did not use the proper type of fire suppressant (foam). Clagg said the plant did an assessment based on receiving the reported issue findings and have submitted it to the NRC; that now is under review.

Feedback Sought on Land Conservation, Outdoor Recreation Plan

The Calvert County Department of Parks & Recreation announces the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will hold interactive public meetings to solicit public comment and feedback on the Maryland Land Preservation and Recreation Plan. Topics discussed during the sessions will cover amenities and services for boating, camping, fishing, hiking and hunting. DNR staff will focus on gathering comments about the state’s outdoor activities to complement results obtained from the Maryland Land Preservation and Recreation Plan Survey, which will remain open until May. Citizens are encouraged to fill out the survey, attend the information sessions and provide feedback to have their opinions considered in the plan. The information sessions will be held Wednesday, April 18, 2018, at Jefferson Patterson Park & Museum located at 10515 Mackall Road in St. Leonard. The first session will begin at 1 p.m. followed by a second session at 6 p.m. More information about DNR and the upcoming information sessions is available on their website. Visit the Calvert County Government website at www.co.cal.md.us for updates. Like us on Facebook. Press Release from Calvert County Government

Roettgen explained the second issue to The County Times. He said each reactor has two safety valves. When one reactor was taken off line for a routine outage, testing revealed that one of the two safety values was not operating properly. It was replaced before the unit was put back on line and the defective valve was repaired. Roettgen said the problem was such that it would have been difficult to uncover except during an outage. He said the problem was such that it did not even rise to the level of getting a “green” rating. Tierney said the company works closely with the NRC and its inspectors to correct any reported problems and hopefully to anticipate them before they become an issue. “We try to respond before that,” he insisted. According to the summary data sheet supplied with the 2017 report for Calvert Cliffs, NRC says they have a comprehensive program of inspections for commercial nuclear power plants. “Generally. inspectors verify the organizational structure, operator qualifications, design, maintenance, fuel handling, and environmental and radiation protection programs are adequate ad col with NRC safety requirements.” The NRC report of 2017 inspections included 49 during the year at the Calvert Cliffs plant that generated the two issues for the plant last year. dickmyers@countytimes.net

Straight Talk on Straight Teeth

BY: JEFF TOMCSIK Orthodontic braces and clear aligners such as Invisalign® are not just for straightening teeth and making your smile look better. In fact, a highly trained and skilled dentist will use orthodontic treatment to improve the function of the teeth which will result in a healthier, longer-lasting smile. While good looking teeth are attractive, the purpose of your teeth is to chew food. When teeth are misaligned, they can slowly damage opposing teeth during the chewing process. When they are in proper alignment, teeth break down the food they are chewing without damaging each other. To help illustrate the point, think of a well working pair of scissors. When in good alignment the two blades come together and meet at a very precise point that makes them excellent at cutting paper. On the other hand, imagine one of the scissor blades had a slight bend or a ding in the metal. This imperfection would surely affect the scissor’s ability to cut as well as when it was in perfect alignment. If the one blade is bent away from the other, there will be a gap between the points of contact that cause the cutting action. The result would likely be a failure

to cut effectively or efficiently. If the bend in the one blade is toward the other, it would cause the blades to scrape each other, making cutting difficult. More importantly to note, the blades scraping each other slowly destroy the cutting surface of both blades. These same principles can be applied to your teeth. In any area of the mouth where your opposing teeth do not meet when you perform a chewing motion (meaning there is a space between the top and opposing-bottom tooth in any area of your mouth when your jaw is closed), like the scissor in the first scenario, it is rendered ineffective in the chewing process. On the other hand, if there are any teeth that are colliding with their opposing teeth, they are likely causing trauma to each other and slowly wearing down the enamel surface and eventually the tooth structure. This will likely lead to greater risk of decay and eventually risk the tooth’s overall vitality. Many people who have ongoing problems with decay or pain despite their efforts to keep their teeth clean, might be suffering from malocclusion issues that are causing the ongoing dental problems. The good

news is that orthodontics may be a solution to these problems, and a straighter, more beautiful smile is a bonus to the treatment, not the reason for the treatment. If you’re like most adults, the thought of braces is unnerving. Years in metal brackets and sharp wires is no-one’s idea of a good time. If these thoughts are keeping you away from approaching your dentist about a straighter, more beautiful, better functioning, healthier smile, consider a clear aligner option such as Invisalign®. Invisalign® is a clear, removeable retainer that may achieve the same results as traditional braces in less time. The fact that aligners are removeable means you can take them out whenever you eat. This makes eating more comfortable and cleaner as you will not have to worry about food particles being stuck in your braces. They also allow you to easily clean your teeth, where braces with wires make flossing and thorough brushing more difficult. The material used by Invisalign® is by far superior to all other aligners on the market. Not only is it the most invisible, it is also the fastest working material, meaning you will reach your desired outcome in a fraction

of the time to other safe orthodontic options. Finally, with Invisalign® technology, your dentist can take a scan of your mouth and show you virtually what your results will look like, from the improved esthetics of your smile profile to the benefits of improving any occlusion issues that may be causing damage to your teeth. The next time you go to your dentist, ask them if they are Invisalign® certified. Ask them if they can provide a virtual, digital smile makeover with the use of an iTero® scanner so that you can see your likely outcome. Also ask them if you have any occlusion issues during chewing and if orthodontics is right for you. One of the biggest barriers to getting orthodontic treatment dentists hear the most is that it costs too much. Before you allow money to get between you and a healthy, beautiful smile, think about the amount of money you spent on your last car. That car will likely not be in your life ten years from now. The cost of braces or Invisalign® is a fraction of the cost of that car, and the results will last you a lifetime!

it first became operational said there was “never one [air station] with the far reaching importance of Pax River.” Hammond, speaking to assembled Navy personnel and command staff as well as past base commanders, called the work done at the base “an amazing feat.” Hammond praised the work of the 22,000-person work force as the foundation of the base’s achievements throughout the years. “The fabric of Pax River NAS… is the people,” Hammond said, adding that Webster Field in St. Inigoes, was an integral part of the work done at Pax River. “Webster Field is an absolute power house for systems development,” said Hammond. Though the base has undergone many changes in over the past 75 years, from being home to squadrons to being more civilian and defense contractor oriented, it never lost one vital component to its mission. “We never lost our ability to build things,” Hammond said. “It’s an amazing thing.” Rear Adm. Dean Peters, Program Executive Officer for AIR ASW, Assault & Special Mission Programs, PEO(A), said the base has been responsible for many of the Navy’s continued advances technologically since World War II. “It changed the destiny of a rural community,” Peters said. “Pax River is the engine to ensure the fleet has the latest technology. “It’s a tremendous responsibility.”

Stabbing Defendant Lusby House Fire Sentenced in Lusby Ruled Accidental Murder By Guy Leonard Staff Writer

A Chesapeake Beach man was sentenced to 25 years in prison Apr. 6 for his part in a stabbing attack against two men at a large brawl that broke out in Lusby last year where one of the victims died. Jamarr Jefferson, 28, was said to have been part of a large group of people that arrived at the home of Darrell Savoy on Rope Knot Road on September 10 to take part in a melee in which he had his twin brother, Lamarr Jefferson, assaulted both Devaughn Savoy and Javonte Darnell Willett with knives. Willet was hospitalized but survived his injuries; but Devaughn Savoy, 29, later died of his wounds at Calvert Memorial Hospital. In the aftermath of the melee sheriff’s deputies found several pieces of evidence, mostly blood, including a Chevrolet Tahoe SUV in the drive way with blood evidence inside. Darrell Savoy, the owner of the residence where the fatal brawl took place, was said to have put a shotgun in the Tahoe and throw a spent shell into the

nearby woods following the altercation. Darrell Savoy told police that he was on his phone Sept. 10 when three vehicles, a sedan and two SUVs, came to his house to start an altercation. There were perhaps 12 to 15 in them, police reports stated, including women and children. Darrell Savoy said the altercation began when a woman punched him in the head; police said he was not much more forthcoming in the investigation beyond saying he was attacked and that the other Savoy and Willett had been stabbed. When interviewed at the hospital, Willett told Calvert sheriff’s detectives that the Jefferson brothers had been the ones to attack him and Devaughn Savoy. Jefferson also received another 10 years for committing assault in the altercation, as well as 10 years for assaulting an inmate in jail, though both sentences will run concurrent with the murder sentence. Jefferson’s brother Lamarr pleaded guilty to assault in March connected to the attack on Willet. guyleonard@countytimes.net

By Guy Leonard Staff Writer Maryland State Fire Marshals say that a house in the Chesapeake Ranch Estates destroyed by fire was due to smoking materials that were improperly discarded. The fire broke out April 9 on Golden West Way in Lusby at about 1:47 p.m. and took 50 firefighters from the

Solomons Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad just 10 minutes to the extinguish. The structure was a one-and-a-half story wood framed home; investigators estimated the loss at $170,000 between the home and its contents. One occupant was injured in the fire, as were two firefighters; they were treated and released with non-life threatening injuries. The fire was discovered by neighbors on the back deck of the structure; the occupant tried to extinguish the flame but failed. The family has been displaced from the destroyed home but is being assisted by the American Red Cross, according to fire marshals. guyleonard@countytimes.net

Two High Schools to Pets of the Week View Mock Crashes Meet Allie!

With the assistance of the Calvert Alliance Against Substance Abuse (CAASA), Maryland State Police, Chesapeake Region Safety Council, and several local volunteer emergency responders, mock crashes will be conducted at the hgh schools in Calvert County. The next two are scheduled for Huntingtown High School on Thursday April 12th and Patuxent High School on Monday April 23rd. These mock crashes are being conducted as a continuing education program geared toward reducing the traffic fatalities, particularly those involving young persons. These tragedies continue to be the leading cause of death amongst young people. Sheriff Mike Evans stated, “We have taken a lot of steps to reduce these numbers, but we need to continue to do more.” He added, “Education helps because most of these

incidents are preventable.” These events take a huge commitment from numerous members of the community. In addition to those already mentioned, the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank Chips Towing, APlus Towing, Huntingtown Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue personnel, Solomons Volunteer Rescue Squad and Fire Department, Calvert County Public Schools, Calvert County Government, including the Control Center and Media Relations, Impact Research, Inc, Rausch Funeral Home, Huntingtown High School, PADDD (Positive Alternatives to Dangerous and Destructive Decisions), and Patuxent High School Drama Students.

It’s Distracted Driving Awareness Month

April is designated as Distracted Driving Awareness Month by the National Safety Council. Distracted driving is any activity that diverts a driver’s attention away from the primary task of driving. Sheriff Mike Evans has initiated several educational and enforcement initiatives in various locations of the county. In 2015 Maryland experienced 108 distracted driving fatal crashes. The Sheriff added, “Our goal will always remain to have zero traffic related deaths in Calvert County.” Distracted driving safety tips include:

• All drivers are encouraged to only use cell phones after safely pulling over. • If you are drowsy, pull off of the road. • Limit the number of passengers, as well as the level of activity inside the vehicle • Avoid eating while driving. • Do your multi-tasking outside of the car Maryland law prohibits the use of a handheld cell phone and texting while driving. Specifically, the law states, “A driver of a motor vehicle that is in motion may not use the driver’s hands to use a handheld telephone other than to initiate or terminate a wireless telephone

She is 8 years old and is a very affectionate, friendly cat. She will take a little time to warm up to you but once she does she loves to jump in your lap to be petted. Her favorite spot is her foster mom’s lap. She also loves to sleep with her foster mom. She lives with other cats and gets along just fine with them. She would do well being the only pet also. She was adopted out as a kitten but her family could no longer keep her so they turned her into Tri County Shelter. They could have contacted us and we would have taken her back. Fortunately she has a microchip so the folks at Tri County Shelter called Feral Cat Rescue and she came back to us. She is fully vetted. You can meet her on Saturdays and Sundays at the Petco in California from 10:30 to 3, you can fill out an application and email to diane@feralcatrescuemd.org. If you know about cats outside, please contact us to borrow a trap so we can get the cats spayed or neutered. Help us reduce the number of cats being euthanized every month at Tri County Shelter by considering this a community problem and your responsibility to help solve the problem. It does cost tax payers about $100 per cat that goes thru the shelter doors. Let’s continue to reduce this number by spaying and neutering community cats. Thanks, Feral Cat Rescue

WW II Veteran To Celebrate 100 Years

Col. Robert E. Berry

By Guy Leonard Staff Writer Retired U.S. Army Col. Robert E. Berry lives a quiet life in Lusby. He doesn’t usually talk much about his past; but it’s anything but ordinary. 100 years old on Apr. 6, Berry is one of the few remaining veterans who can say they landed on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day in World War II. He was drafted into the Army in March of 1941, nine months before the attack on Pearl Harbor to serve in graves

registration. “I stayed in Europe until the end of the war,” said Berry. Before being drafted he worked in a large funeral home in Philadelphia, PA, so he was used to working with the dead. His services would soon be needed on a grand scale; his assignment was to catalogue the dead and create temporary cemeteries for them. His first was on the beaches of Normandy when he came in on the 13th wave at Omaha Beach, one of the most heavily engaged of all the landing sites. “There were bodies all over the place,” Berry told The County Times. Though he was in graves registration, he shared in the same danger that day as all the other troops trying to make it off the beach. “Everybody knew they could get it, get shot,” Berry said. “I just hoped I would get it in the head. “Everybody was being shot at, you bet.” Berry saw many soldiers who had lost limbs and suffered badly before dying and at least wanted a quick death if it came for him. A month after the invasion and as the

LOCAL ADVERTISING IS MORE POWERFUL THAN EVER.

Allies pushed the Germans back across France, Berry, an officer in charge of his own platoon, had to go back to the beaches and dig up the remains of soldiers, marked by a simple wooden plank in the sand, and move them up to a permanent site. That cemetery is the Normandy site seen in the movie Saving Private Ryan; Berry said he was only able to watch that movie once, it was so close to the real experience. Though he was busy listing the dead and establishing and maintaining cemeteries, there were no guarantees the enemy would not counterattack near his position. He was lightly equipped but kept his helmet and M-1 carbine close. It was tough working around so much death but he and his men kept it together, he said. “It gets to you after a while,” Berry said. “But you plug along. “It’s a job that had to be done.” After the war he was out of the Army for a short time but was called back to active duty in Washington, D.C. in the effort to bring home some of the dead from the European Theatre. Families could choose to have their soldier’s remains brought home or they could choose to leave them at rest across the Atlantic Ocean; soldiers who came from foreign countries to fight for the United States could also be sent to their homelands at their family’s request, Berry said. Five years later, Berry found himself serving in the Korean War in Kokura, Japan, again cataloguing the dead. This time, dead soldiers, sailors, ma-

rines and airmen were taken to Japan and flown back to the U.S., he said. “They weren’t going to have any more cemeteries overseas this time,” Berry said. “None.” In this war, he oversaw laboratory work with forensic specialists to identify the American dead; sometimes they were found together on the battlefield, their bones mingled with those of their North Korean and Chinese enemies. By 1964 he was out of the military, avoiding the Vietnam War entirely. America suffered much in World War II and Korea, Berry said, but the military was unified in getting the job done for each conflict. “Everybody just wanted to help out as much as they could,” Berry said of serving in those times. Despite having seen and being a part of so much of the 20th century’s history, Berry is nonplussed about turning 100 years old. “I really haven’t paid any attention to it,” Berry, a Wilmington, Del. native said. “It’s more of a big deal to everybody else than it is to me.” He has little advice for people who want to live as long as possible, but he remembered his doctor’s admonishment from 50 years ago to “eat like a king for breakfast, eat like a prince for lunch and eat like a pauper for dinner.” Other than that, Berry said, it’s all up to fate. “I always say it’s the luck of the draw,” he said guyleonard@countytimes.net

Organ Donors Give the Ultimate Gift – Life April is National Donate Life Month

Joy McCarthy, of Huntingtown, knew her husband, Kris, was an organ donor. They had discussed it. In 2012, at age 45, the father of three young children died suddenly of a massive heart attack. Joy McCarthy honored her husband’s wishes. “It is hard at that moment when you’ve just lost a loved one,” said McCarthy, “but it was a great comfort in the sad days that followed to know his beautiful blue eyes are helping two people to see and his tissue is helping someone else to walk.” McCarthy got a thank you note from the woman whose husband received tissue to help rebuild his foot. “It means a lot to me to know that part of him is still going strong,” said McCarthy, who serves on the Donor Council at CalvertHealth Medical Center where she works as a physical therapist. For Krista and Jeff French, of Mechanicsville, organ donation has a different meaning. “My husband’s life was saved by a 23-year-old man when he received a heart transplant on March, 19, 2015. [The donor’s] parents did not know [their son] was designated as a donor but they are so proud of him for making that kind and generous decision,” said French. “We celebrate [the date of the transplant] every year,” she said. “Because of that young man my husband got to see our daughter graduate high school and go on to college. He got to hold his son’s first child.”

At one of her husband’s checkups, French recorded her husband’s heartbeat and put the tape into a blessing bear as a gift to the parents of his donor. “They carry it with them all the time,” she said. The donor’s father told French, that his son’s “heart lives and gives love every day.” As a Donate Life ambassador, French said she attends community events to share her family’s story on the importance of organ donation in order for others to make an informed decision. She also supports people who are waiting for a transplant like a sixyear-old girl who is waiting for a liver and a local man who needs a kidney. Promoting Organ and Tissue Donor Awareness Every 10 minutes a name is added to the national organ transplant waiting list. More than 123,000 men, women and children currently need lifesaving organ transplants. More common are tissue transplants with more than 1 million transplants— including bone, cornea, heart valve, skin, tendon and vein—performed nationally each year. These tissue transplants contribute to restoring vision, healing burn victims and helping individuals with neurological and orthopedic conditions. One tissue donor has the potential to enhance the lives of 50 people. CalvertHealth Medical Center Coordinator for Organ Donation Rebecca

Organ donor Kris McCarthy pictured here on vacation with wife, Joy, and children, from left, Carly, Cole and Carson.

Lee is working to bring awareness of the need for tissue and organ donation. Lee said CalvertHealth partners with the Living Legacy Foundation to provide education about tissue and organ donation to the local community through its mobile health center, urgent care facilities, physician practices and special events held during “Donate Life Month” in April. “Our Donor Council consists of staff members throughout the hospital who have a passion to learn and educate others on donation. Many of them have

personal stories that have touched their own lives,” Lee said. To become an organ and tissue donor, register online at www. donatelifemaryland.org or sign up through the Motor Vehicle Administration when you applying or renewing your driver’s license, and, share your intentions with your family and loved ones.

Financial Literacy Tips For Children and Grandchildren

The end of the school year is about three months away. All parents and grandparents worry that three months without school will put their children and grandchildren behind the learning curve. That certainly doesn’t have to be the case. This summer, how about teaching your children and grandchildren about finance? How can you start teaching your children and grandchildren? Here are three tips. Explain what money is and how it works. Unfortunately, many children hear only negative comments about money from overhearing what their parents say. This can easily turn into a fear about money, specifically not having “enough”. If this fear is coupled with ignorance about how money works, the child will not have the confidence to tackle money issues. Your goal is to give your child or grandchild the confidence to learn about money. Money should be explained in objective terms— what is it? How does it work? What do those pennies mean? How do the pennies turn into dollars? A simple way of teaching about money is to start in the grocery store. If you give your child or grandchild a dollar, for example, and ask them to buy some fruit with the dollar, they will quickly understand how the money is used to purchase food. Take a field trip to the grocery store letting the child handle some money and pay for groceries at the checkout. You will be amazed at how helpful grocery store clerks, managers and others will be when they

know you are trying to give children confidence about money. All of us know how important it is to teach children about money. Teach your children and grandchildren that people have to earn money to live. I recall one incident in my childhood that left a lasting impression on me. I was about 5 or 6 and took a grape in the grocery store and promptly ate it. My father saw me and explained I had stolen that grape from the employees of the store; that employees had to earn money for their families and I had taken their money by stealing something they could no longer sell. My father made me take one penny, find the store manager, apologize for stealing the grape and offer to pay the penny to the store and its employees—all by myself. Needless to say, I did what my father asked, in tears and with great fear, and I never forgot the lesson. I couldn’t wait until my own child made the same mistake so I could repeat the lesson. He did and I did. Somehow we need to teach children and grandchildren what money means in the context of other people and their families. Get creative with the concept of savings. Savings is a harder concept for younger children and grandchildren. They need to see their savings in the form of one or more piggybanks. Using a piggybank for small children and a checking account for older children will teach saving as a concept. But saving in a vacuum will not generate excitement among children. Setting goals for expenditures and

saving for those goals will teach budgeting. Using more than one piggybank for different purposes can help even young children learn how to budget. By setting aside some money in the “spending” piggybank and other money in the “sharing” or “saving” piggybanks, children can learn to allocate money to various purposes. With older children, opening a checking account and a savings account is a major step towards maturity. Guide the older child through the process. However you approach the subject, you are the primary teacher for your children and grandchildren and it is never too early to start them on good money habits. Enjoy your summer with the children and help them learn more about finance while doing so. JOIN ANDREA BADDOUR ON APRIL 18TH AT 11AM AT OUR OFFICE IN NORTH BEACH TO LEARN ABOUT ESTATE PLANNING.

In Remembrance Deborah Jane (Byerly) Shukert

Deborah Jane (Byerly) Shukert, 61, passed away peacefully in her sleep on April 8, 2018 after a two and a half year battle with throat and head cancer. Deborah was born December 12, 1956 in Rantoul, Illinois to Robert Shukert and Patricia Whitaker. She was employed in health insurance customer service for most of her life. She truly enjoyed helping people, and always went above and beyond to do so. She grew up and spent some of her later years in Omaha, Nebraska until moving back to Maryland to be with her family. She loved spending as much time with family as possible, especially at holiday gatherings. Her friends were very important to her and some of her best friends were those from her childhood. The distance didn’t matter to the friendship. She loved getting the most out of life, especially by going to concerts and enjoying the Chesapeake Bay. When she was diagnosed with cancer Deborah told the doctors to do everything they possibly could for her. She fought

through multiple rounds of chemo and radiation until the very end. She did not want to leave this life and all the fun she was having in it. Deborah was preceded in death by her brother Doug Shukert. She is survived by her beloved children Jason Byerly of Crownsville, MD, Alicia Walsh and her husband John, and Garrett Byerly, all of Berlin, MD; her grandchildren, whom she loved dearly, Veronica (Daniel), Blaine, Evelyn and Will, and great-grandchildren Christopher and Owen. She is also survived by her father Robert (Mary) Shukert of Davenport, FL, her mother Patricia Whitaker of Dodge, NE, siblings Betsy (Matt) Hood of Dodge, Tom (Mickie) Shukert of Hughesville, MD, and Gerry (Kim) Shukert of San Diego, CA, and by many special nieces, nephews and friends. Deborah has donated her body to science. She wanted the following known: “I lived, loved, laughed and left. Thank you everyone for the wonderful life.” A visitation will be held Sunday April 15 from 1-2 PM at Rausch Funeral Home, 8325 Mt. Harmony Lane, Owings, MD, where a celebration of life service will be held at 2:00 P.M., followed by a reception at Trader’s restaurant in Chesapeake Beach.
