Cold War icon moving to VFW Post #2801

This one is just right!

Memorial brick sales to help maintain park

By Paul DelGuidice For The Villa Park Independent

The Villa Park VFW Post #2801 will soon have a new monument on its grounds at 39 E. St. Charles Rd. The NikeAjax missile, which for years was on display at Cortesi Veterans Park, will be moved to the Post. A memorial to Veterans will take the place of the iconic Cold War anti-missile’s spot at Cortesi. “We at the Post are pleased to welcome this display,” said Post Quartermaster Thomas G. Forbes. The redesign of the park is scheduled to begin in the next few weeks, with plans calling for new bicycle and pedestrian pats on both the east and west side. The Great Western Station (The Depot), which is located just north of the park, will also get a remodeling. New windows, doors and two ADA-compliant restrooms will be installed to create an open

The renovated park will feature a flag pole at the south end surrounded by a 21-inch high ‘seat wall’ and columns dedicated to veterans of the various Military branches as well as those who are missing in action. The current south sidewalk will be relocated to better serve the memorial. Engraved paver bricks with the names of veterans will be incorporated into this path. “This memorial will recognize our veterans, all our veterans,” said Past Commander Dennis Geiseman during the Board meeting where Trustees approved the Cortesi Park plans.

Dash 5K at Willowbrook High School in Villa Park. Funds raised will be used toward assisting families financially while seeking treatment for their children as well as advocacy efforts to raise awareness on the symptoms of PANDAS/ PANS. Continuing her efforts to educate her constituents about the rare pediatric autoimmune response triggered by a strep infection, State Rep. Deb Con-

roy, D-Villa, partnered with local parents to sponsor the 5K Dash on Sunday, October 4. “It is inspiring to see so many community members come out and support this important cause,” Conroy said. “It has been a rewarding journey to work with these local moms, and I look forward to continuing to fight so that no other families have to go through the hardships of not having a proper diagnosis for their child.” Conroy has worked with area moms, Kate Drury and Wendy Nawara, who organized the 5K and recently passed legislation that created a volunteer advisory council for PANDAS/PANS in Illinois. The 5K brought together runners and their families to raise funds for the cause, a local nonprofit that works to

build awareness and provide support to families struggling with the medical and financial hardships. Cullerton promotes early detection of PANDAS “I’m proud to see our community come together to raise awareness for such a worthy cause,” State Senator Tom Cullerton (D-Villa Park) said. “As a father of three young boys, I understand the importance of educating medical professionals and the general public on the symptoms caused by PANDAS. Events like this are important to raise awareness and secure resources to ensure our children don’t suffer.” Pediatric Autoimmune Neu-

tion Co. of Chicago submitted the lowest responsible bid, in the amount of $133,484. The Board approved this bid at their Monday, Sept. 28 meeting.

ELMHURST — Elmhurst Hospital has awarded its 2015 EMS (Emergency Medical Services) “Run of the Year” to members of the Lombard Fire Department and Oakbrook Terrace Fire Protection District for their efforts in rescuing a man in January who was found outside on a driveway, unconscious and suffering from a severe case of hypothermia.

Thank you for the goldfish, I think T his is an open letter to the Carnival Guy who “awarded” my kid with a goldfish at the local fair this past summer. What can I say? Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it. Everyone knows that nurturing, feeding and otherwise sustaining any and all household pets (including goldfish, salamanders and tree frogs) is at the top of every mom’s job description. We live to de-poop the fish tank. But back to that fateful day. I innocently sent my kid to the carnival thinking maybe he’d come home with a bellyful of corn dogs or mini donuts. Instead and he marched into the house with a clear plastic bag filled with water and a goldfish (not necessarily in that order). He was beaming – my son, not the fish. To say he likes critters is an understatement. Coming home with a goldfish?

Jill Pertler

SLICES OF LIFE

It was his lucky day! I wasn’t feeling the love. I’d sworn off fish as pets years ago, after three large tanks and many births, deaths and countless instances of parents eating their young. Fish can be complicated, barbaric beings. That said, our current situation seemed simple enough for fish aficionados like us. We could deal with just one tiny fish. How much could he eat and poop? Problem was, our situation was about to multiply. My kid is a critter magnet, and the apple doesn’t fall far

from the tree. I’m a bit of a sucker for them myself. It seems other moms don’t share my weakness. A few of my son’s friends also won fish at the carnival but they knew better than to take them home. Before long, a second carnival “prize” showed up at our doorstep. And then another. And another. Apparently other moms have mastered the word, “No,” better than me. That is how we went from zero goldfish to four in less than an hour. I’ve seen fish multiply before, but never like this. We looked for a larger bowl. We put in some rocks and de-chlorinated water. We tried to make the tank homey for our new pets. It took some effort, but we got the four musketeers settled in their new habitat and I remained optimistic that our fish situation was a temporary one. I figured they’d be belly up and ready for the flusher in

short order. How healthy could four carnival goldfishes be? In a word: Very. Apparently carnival life is a great start for goldfish. One might think they would be squished together in large numbers in small tanks all swishing and swashing as the carnival travels from one town to another. Our goldfish flourish with swishing and swashing. They’ve completed the twoplus hour car trip with us to the lake three times now and we haven’t drowned a single one. It’s been a couple of months, and our fish are thriving. I feed them twice a day. When I do, they congregate at the top of the water in anticipation of their goldfish flakes. I don’t want to brag, but as goldfish go, I think they are at the top of the intelligence meter. They have voracious appetites and are growing bigger. In short, they show no sign

Frank Lloyd Wright day trip I first met Cindy several years ago when I hosted her for a weekend at the start of her exchange program. She ended up being placed with a host family outside of Chicago and went to college at a community college there for her one year in America. Since the locale turned out be relatively close, I hired Cindy to be my assistant one day a week doing organizational duties for me. Mainly we took day trips so I could show her the glorious Midwest. We are now forever friends and she comes back every year as she fell head over heels in love with Chicago. At the ripe age of 26, she has traveled extensively, some trips with friends or family, some solo. Her love of travel and love of learning make her a wonderful houseguest. Cindy knows more about Chicago than many natives. She knows more about a lot of things than many people, or at least me. This past weekend we offered availability to do anything and go anywhere with her. She has

Kelly Simmons COLUMNIST

studied Frank Lloyd Wright (and American architecture in general) so we traipsed up to Spring Green, Wisconsin to tour Taliesin, Frank’s home and studio. Taliesin (pronounced Tally – ESS – in) is on land where Frank grew up, on the Wisconsin river, set on the hillside with a view to make you sigh as if you’ve seen Heaven on earth. Taliesin is a Welsh word meaning “shining brow” and that is where he placed his dwelling, as if it is part of the jutting sandstone bluffs. The top of the hill, the crown, is not built upon. Frank liked his architecture to be organic, seeming part of the environment. He used local woods and stone, and kept his color scheme true to natural tones of the area. Even

at his farm there, he had only certain chickens, cows and pigs to match his color palette. We toured the 600-acre estate and the 21,000 square foot home (37,000 square feet if you include the courtyards) along with his school that still houses and teaches graduate level architecture students. Fascinating and inspiring, I still would never have commissioned Frank to build a home for me. His ceilings are too low. A fabulous day was spent in Wisconsin taking in Frank, the scenery, and cheese curds. I fancy architecture and am a bit of an information junkie, but not a devotee of any one thing or person. I appreciate people like Cindy who are walking fact factories. Frank designed nearly 500 homes and buildings in his long career. He narrowed down a list of 38 that he really loved and only 21 of his creations boast a red tile with his initials signifying his stamp of approval. Imagine our delight the next day when we were able to show

Cindy the Laurent House in our hometown of Rockford, IL and read that it made Frank’s list of his fave 38. And imagine our surprise when we discovered it has the signature red tile at the entry door. I may not be a wealth of deep information but I do love to provide a lovely experience for guests and find things that light them up. My thanks to Frank and the Laurent House board for making a German gal (and this American gal) very happy. Lessons I learned include there is always something new to explore and appreciate, and there are always treasures under one’s nose that we may not discover until someone else comes along to stir our interest. To that, I give my own stamp of approval. Kelly Epperson Simmons has built houses of cards, sticks, and still loves dollhouses.

So that is why I’m writing today. It is because of you, Carnival Guy, that we are in our current situation. We owe our good fortune to you (as do Goldy et al.) and for that I send a weary, albeit wet, “Thanks.” The fish have sort of grown on us and I guess we’ll keep them. As for next year and your carnival, we may have to take a pass. I think my kid will be busy that day – changing the water in the fish tank.

St. Pius part of national bully prevention campaign and events to inspire students to share aspects of their faith with one another. Time will be spent this school year educating students and staff on how to recognize behavior that is unkind and hurtful, and how to come up with alternative behaviors.

At an all-school assembly, the St. Pius X principal and assistant principal signed an anti-bullying pledge for the school, pictured here.

St. Pius X School kicked off its anti-bullying campaign on October 1. All the students, including the girl pictured, wrote messages of kindness on yellow ribbons, which were then hung around the outside of the school.

Students will learn to be an “upstander” not a “bystander,” as a demonstration of faith and values by showing respect for others, treating others with dignity and performing ran-

dom acts of kindness. The campaign kicked off on October 1 at the school with all the students writing messages of kindness on yellow ribbons which were then

What you think you know about Social Security may be totally wrong much they’ll be eligible to receive, and when they can start drawing benefits without penalty. The survey, by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (MassMutual), included a true/false quiz about Social Security facts. Just 28 percent of those surveyed scored a passing grade, and only one person out of the 1,500 polled was able to answer all survey questions correctly. The survey results illustrated a 186149

(BPT) — Americans may have faith in the Social Security system, but many still don’t really understand how it works. That’s a key take-away from a recent survey of Americans’ knowledge of Social Security retirement benefits. While 63 percent of respondents said they do believe Social Security benefits will be available to them when they retire, many were confused about who qualifies for benefits, how

significant lack of knowledge about Social Security, including: • Although 75 percent of those surveyed thought being an American citizen is a requirement to receive Social Security retirement benefits, this is not the case. Noncitizens lawfully living in the U.S., and who have permission to work here, can obtain a Social Security number, pay into the Social Security system and draw benefits. • More than seven in 10 respondents mistakenly thought that 65 is the age when everyone can begin drawing full retirement benefits. Actually, your full retirement age depends on what year you were born. • Fifty-five percent of those surveyed incorrectly believed they could continue working during retirement while collecting full Social Security benefits, regardless of their age. If you work during retirement, but have not yet reached your full retirement age, your Social Security benefits may be reduced if you earn too much. Once you reach full retirement age, those withheld benefits will be repaid over your lifetime. “Perhaps the greatest Social Security deficit in this country is the

lack of education around the retirement benefits of the program,” says Michael R. Fanning, executive vice president, U.S. Insurance Group, MassMutual. “With millions of Americans nearing retirement each year, many may be at risk of underutilizing a critical component of their retirement income stream.” Still, some good news emerged from the survey. Americans seem aware that Social Security should be only one component of their overall retirement savings plan. Just 39 percent said they expected to rely more on Social Security than their personal savings or income during retirement, and just 15 percent expected to rely solely on Social Security. You can test your Social Security knowledge by taking the MassMutual quiz. Here are some Social Security facts to help improve your knowledge: • No single filing strategy works for everyone filing for Social Security benefits; there are just too many variables. For example, a married couple may have hundreds of options for filing for Social Security retirement benefits.

• Americans are living longer. It’s no longer sufficient to plan for just 10 years of retirement. You may well need savings and income to carry you for three decades or longer. • While Social Security can be an important component of your retirement plan, you need to have other income as well. Under- or overvaluing your Social Security retirement benefits could keep you from getting a true picture of your retirement savings plans. A qualified financial professional can better help you understand how Social Security fits into your personal situation.

Edward-Elmhurst launches new website, EEHealth.org

NAPERVILLE AND ELMHURST – As part of the next phase of its “Healthy Driven” initiative, Edward-Elmhurst Health has introduced a new website – EEHealth.org – to provide patients and visitors with information about the system’s services, programs, classes and locations.Race car driver Danica Patrick, who will serve through early 2016 as the system’s “Healthy Driven” spokesperson, is prominently featured on several pages of EEHealth.org. Other highlights of the new website include Healthy Driven blogs, an easy-to-use “Find a Doctor” search function, ER Wait Times and Edward-Elmhurst’s HealthAware screenings, which are free, five-minute tests to determine a person’s risk for diseases or disorders.Tens of thousands have taken the HealthAware screenings since they began in 2009, with thousands seeking and receiving additional testing and treatment after they were found at-risk. The Edward-Elmhurst HealthAware Center includes assessments for addiction, anxiety, breast cancer, depression, diabetes, heart disease, lung cancer, sleep disorders and stroke.“What makes EEHealth.org unique is the opportunity it provides in so many ways for people to get engaged in and take charge of their own health,” says Pam Davis, System CEO, Edward-Elmhurst Health. “Edward-Elmhurst Health is a leader in prevention and wellness, and we’re determined to motivate as many people as possible to join

Continued from previous page us in that effort.”In addition to the new website, Edward-Elmhurst is beginning another round of “Healthy Driven” marketing and advertising featuring Patrick that will focus on disease prevention and health screenings. The new campaign will include TV and radio commercials, newspaper and magazine ads, billboards, online advertising, direct marketing and social media.“In many cases when it comes to our health, we don’t get the equivalent of a “check engine” warning that we get in our vehicles,” says Patrick, who will be a guest blogger on EEHealth.org. “But, with tools like the HealthAware screenings, Edward-Elmhurst Health has ways to identify and address health risks before they become serious.”Edward-Elmhurst Health, which began its “Healthy Driven” program in late 2014, includes Edward Hospital, Elmhurst Hospital and Linden Oaks Behavioral Health. The system, created in 2013 following the merger of Edward Hospital and Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare, has more than 50 outpatient locations across a service area of 1.7 million residents in the west and southwest suburbs of Chicago, 7,400 employees and 1,900 physicians on staff.

they go in for a physical exam or have a medical event. In fact, a third of Americans who have AFib are still undiagnosed, noted a 2015 report from the American Heart Association. Early diagnosis and treatment is key Early detection of AFib is critical to reduce unnecessary medical visits and prevent serious complications. However, AFib can occur intermittently or without symptoms, making it difficult to detect and diagnose. If a physician suspects AFib, they will typically conduct a physical examination and heartmonitoring tests. Traditional heart monitoring methods include an electrocardiogram (ECG) to measure the timing and duration of each electrical signal of the heart. New advancements in technology such as wireless, long-term, continuous cardiac monitors have significantly improved how AFib is diagnosed and managed. For example, iRhythm’s ZIO Service with a biosensor patch has the ability to monitor and store

patients’ heartbeats for up to 14 days, catching any hard to detect events that may be missed with older technology. The long-term continuous monitoring allows physicians to rule in, or even rule out, the diagnosis and characterization of AFib and potentially eliminating the need for further testing and resulting in faster treatment. Talk to your doctor While AFib may not sound

surgery. People who are overweight, have high blood pressure, lung or thyroid issues or are under a lot of stress may also have an increased risk for AFib. Additionally, the risk for AFib increases with age, especially after 60. There is also a genetic component to AFib, so if someone in the family has it, the more likely the next generation will have it too. Without treatment, AFib can lead to serious health consequences, including: * Heart failure * Stroke * Fatigue * Shortness of breath What are the symptoms of AFib? Each year, millions of patients see physicians because they feel heart palpitations or report their heart is racing, quivering or fluttering, which are the most common symptoms of AFib. Other signs may include general fatigue, dizziness, shortness of breath, anxiety or weakness. However, some people with “silent” AFib have no symptoms at all and their condition is only detected when

(BPT) — An estimated 2.7 million Americans suffer from atrial fibrillation (AFib), an irregular heartbeat and the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia, according to the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Surprisingly, many people do not feel any symptoms until they are suffering from complications of AFib such as heart failure or stroke. September is Atrial Fibrillation Awareness Month. Take the time to understand your risk for AFib, and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment. One out of every four strokes in the United States is a result of AFib, according to the American Heart Association. Patients who experience a stroke caused by AFib are twice as likely to be severely disabled, a 1996 Framingham Study found. Stroke prevention and heart failure prevention are primary treatment goals in AFib. Who is at risk for AFib? There are a number of risk factors associated with AFib, including existing heart conditions, prior heart attack or recent heart

IC Catholic Prep girls volleyball team defeats ACC, St. Edward Koch racks up 25 kills in two victories; Reardon records triple-double By Mike Miazga Correspondent

The IC Catholic Prep girls volleyball team put a rough patch of play squarely behind it with a pair of recent Metro Suburban Conference West Division victories. IC downed Elgin St. Edward and Aurora Central Catholic to move to 15-7 overall and 6-3 in

conference play. “We’ve started to put things back together,” said IC Catholic Prep coach Nancy D’Amore. “The girls are playing well. It’s a focus thing. The girls have refocused their energy back into the team, into the gym and into our goals. Practice has been more intense, which has really helped. In matches we are attacking more efficiently and we’re starting to find open spots on the floor instead of just swinging. We’re doing a better job of creating points. That’s what we needed. Our defense always has been solid. We just needed to find a

Glenbard South (5-2, 3-0) at IC Catholic Prep (6-1, 3-0) When: Friday, 7 p.m. Where: Lewis Stadium at Plunkett Athletic Complex, Elmhurst Last week: Glenbard South 42, Aurora Central 0; IC Catholic Prep 40, Wheaton Academy 10 Last year: Glenbard South 28, IC Catholic Prep 14 Outlook: First place in the Metro Suburban Conference West Division is on the line in this matchup. IC Catholic Prep punched its playoff ticket with its sixth win of the season last week. The Knights will encoun-

ter a Glenbard South team that has been the ruler of the roost in the MSC for many years. The Raiders are 5-2 this year, but have only two wins against team’s with winning records. Glenbard South’s losses were in its first two non-conference games to Addison Trail and Glenbard East. In comparing two common opponents, Glenbard South beat Wheaton Academy 55-14 (IC Catholic Prep won 40-10) and Aurora Central 42-0 (IC Catholic Prep beat ACC 41-7). In other words, this should be a real good football game.

way to score points sooner.” The Knights have received strong recent play from the likes of captains Claudia Koch, Tess Reardon and Kerry Mulligan. “Kerry has been super consistent at playing at a high level in the back row,” said D’Amore. “It helps to have someone back there who is so consistent and producing. There are no big highs or lows with her. She’s been a huge help. Claudia and Tess both are taking a lot of swings. We’ve made some adjustments offen-

sively and they are paying off.” Katie Hendricks also has been a force of late in the middle. “Katie is finding her feet in the middle,” said D’Amore. “She had five kills against Aurora Central and had some key blocks at very critical times that took the momentum away from the other side.” In a 25-15, 25-23 win over St. Edward, Koch had 12 kills, two blocks and five digs. Reardon had eight kills, nine assists, nine digs and four aces. Mul-

ligan had 10 digs, one ace and two assists. Giana Curran had 11 digs and one ace.Molly Fahey had 12 assists and five digs and Hendricks had three kills. In a 23-25, 25-14, 25-17 win against ACC, Reardon had 13 kills, 2 aces, 11 digs and 15 assists in recording a triple-double (double digits in three statistical categories). Koch had 13 kills and 10 digs. Hendricks had five kills and two blocks, while Mulligan had 13 digs and two aces.

Coach (Scott) Forcash and I are extremely proud of this group. We knew going in the competition we were going to face. Our athletes hung in there over their rounds, not giving in in the least. “All of our six golfers shot the same or bettered

their round from the front to the back nine, which is a testament to their perseverance and as a coach this is one of the foundations we preach.” Walker noted Willowbrook returns three varsity golfers and 14 golfers from the frosh-soph team for next year. “The outlook is very bright for our future,” he said.

Week 8 Preview

Wheaton Academy (4-3, 0-3) at Fenton (2-5, 0-3) When: Friday, 7:15 p.m. Where: Fenton High School, Bensenville Last week: IC Catholic Prep 40, Wheaton Academy 10; Riverside-Brookfield 25, Fenton 0 Last year: Wheaton Academy 24, Fenton 14 Outlook: Both teams in this matchup are looking for their first conference win of the season.

Wheaton Academy started the year with a 4-0 record, but only one of those victories was against a team with a winning record (Milwaukee Bradley Tech). The two teams do share a common non-conference opponent in Walther Christian. Wheaton Academy won that game 39-14, while Fenton defeated Walther by a 41-8 count.

The scene: It’s 2015 and a regret-filled Napoleon is exploring the land now known as Iowa. Kayaking, stomping grapes, cycling and savoring local cuisine, Napoleon learns first-hand what he lost in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. As other travelers meet Napoleon they excitedly exclaim “This is Iowa!” A remorseful Napoleon replies with a “Yep.” “Our mission is to grow the state’s economy by attracting travelers who spend money at our attractions, lodging facilities, restaurants, stores and more,” said Shawna Lode, Iowa Tourism Office manager. “Just as Iowa offers unexpected destinations, Napoleon delivers our messaging in an unexpected way, cutting through the clutter and making more of an impact on potential travelers.” Nearly a dozen different Iowa locations are featured in the ads including wineries, iconic landmarks, parks and waterways and great restaurants. As prospective travelers are enticed by Napoleon’s hijinks at these locations, they will be directed to visit traveliowa.com to plan their own Iowa getaway. All of the ads can be viewed at traveliowa.com/thisisiowa.

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin’s 16 million acres of forests will soon transform from bright green to vibrant seasonal hues, and travelers can use the Travel Wisconsin Fall Color Report to find the best fall color and plan their getaway. With more than 25,000 views so far, the award-winning report has seen a steady increase in website traffic since July, nearly two months earlier than last year’s Fall Color Report. The report, which officially launched on TravelWisconsin.com, offers an interactive map with links to nearby events, lodging and dining; local travel tips, such as scenic drives and seasonal activities; and the ability to share, tag and rate photos. Fall foliage fans interested in tracking the state’s changing color can access the report from their mobile device to make travel decisions on the go, or text “WI Fall” to 468311 to receive alerts. Visitors can also sign up to have the Fall Color Report emailed to them every Thursday in time to make weekend plans.
