To our Readers: Life provides numerous lessons, many pleasant and some quite frustrating. Based on that diverse instruction, we often find ourselves pondering how much we should invest solely for our maturation and what amount we can fairly give to others to enrich their lives. Since 2010, the South Philly Review, as the chief editorial portion of its Fall Guide, has been honoring classes of difference makers, filling the sections with accounts of individuals who have realized

that in aiding residents’ paths, they are also improving their personal journeys. We all know how important chasing paper is during these turbulent financial times, and, yes, many difference makers over the years have received salaries for their efforts, but their stories have proven that they consider themselves truly rich for the depth of their relationships, and the same is true for the volunteers whom we have commended. No matter a person’s title, economic status or geography, we have found that South Philly is teeming with

heroes. This year’s nominations gave us a plethora of reasons to smile and shed tears, as the collection of submissions included joyous revelations and heartfelt tales of defeating obstacles. Staff Writer Bill Chenevert, intern Mark McCormick, freelancers Michael Carey and Joseph Angelo Fontanazza and I had a wonderful time interviewing and writing about our latest batch of do-gooders, whose stories begin on page 8. In fact, these tales proved so compelling that I found myself inspired to write a list of the 10 people who have had the biggest effect on my life. That bit of self-promotion appears on page 6. In my tenure at the Review, which comComment at southphillyreview.com/opinion B y Ti n a G a r c e a u menced in May 2010, I have had the pleasure of chronicling dozens of the publication’s difference maker picks and have come to count a few of them as very close friends from whom I draw strength and encouragement. Nobody among us can ever think that life is a one-man or one-woman operation. We all need people in our corners, folks to offer nudges if we need them and pushes in the right direction if we find ourselves at crossroads. I have certainly considered myself fortunate to have read all of these stories within this very special issue, and we hope that all of you find yourselves wanting to forge or strengthen friendships with our selections. We all enter this world as needy citizens, and as we acquire autonomy, it becomes easy to think we can solve everything with just enough motivation and persistence. Part of our maturation process involves realizing that sort of bravado has extreme limitations. When you falter, please resist the urge to surrender to the chaos, as difference maker Aleida Garcia advises.

e have a desired case of difference maker fever at the South Philly Review because of our main Fall Guide component, so I felt compelled to acknowledge the 10 people who have best helped to shape my life. I have walked this earth (well, I crawled on it for a bit, too) for 36-and-a-half years, so I have had many chances to revel in interactions with wonderful individuals, and, fortunately, I have listened to their wisdom more often than not. Now that I really think about my existence, I realize I could probably write at least four or five supplemental lists to accompany this one. That tells me that no matter what troubles vex me, I must deem myself blessed. In his beautiful poem “Ulysses,� Alfred Tennyson stated “I am a part of all that I have met.� Through this list, I want to tweak his reasoning and say everyone I have met has become a part of me, and I am very thankful these figures have given me focus and fortitude.

I am an early riser, but as a 20-year-old junior, I preferred staying away from 8:30 a.m. classes and remember dreading my first session with him. Seventy-five minutes later, I concluded that if the school were to offer a 3 a.m. class with him, I would be the first registrant.

continuously inspire the couple. “We love the diversity and all the children. That’s probably the two things [that inspire us most],� she explained. “There are so many kids that are eager to get involved in a cleanup or a painting [project]. We’ve been able to attract more children to help than adults.� The movie nights they organize go far beyond a Disney classic or black-andwhite flick from the 1950s. “Anything when you can see something else’s perspective is powerful. Everyone needs to buy into how powerful diversity is otherwise you have neighbors against neighbors,� Allen said. “Anything that we do we need to make sure that it’s inclusive. Often it’s the children who are translating but we certainly have diverse events and attendance,� she added, saying that every good deed cannot be overshadowed by litter problems or issues with vandals or illegal activity. “When we have something 0`]]YS /ZZS\ O\R ;Obb ;WUZW]`S positive in the park it kind of kicks out the ost Philadelphians who invest their negative.� time and volunteer efforts into a park live right nearby.

for the civic.� Soon enough, Berger was an integral part of the civic helping neighbors connect to meetings and events with digital communication. “I’d always been interested in zoning and how it all fits in together. [And] how the residents can be active and have a choice without being politicians and making sure that everything is beneficial to the residents and businesses,� he says, and has been on the board of his civic for five years. Much of his work, as an at-large board member, has been technology-focused, and he’s worked with many residents who are intimidated by email and Facebook. “If I have my laptop with me [I’ll bring it out] to pull up their accounts and do what I need to do to make sure they remain connected,� he said. “I find it to be very rewarding. It’s the only aspect where I volunteer with helping regularly,� he added, even as he and his wife are expecting a baby boy tomorrow. He’s helped to celebrate the civic’s community garden at Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., and with their annual bowling fundraiser at St. Monica Lanes, 1601 W. Shunk St. He thinks the latter has been getting more and more successful due to the constant advertising and digital communications efforts, which he says has produced larger turnouts every year. But at every event EPX puts on, Berger’s there setting up tables and cleaning up when it’s all over, a board member duty he takes pretty seriously. “It’s part of lending a helping hand and being involved in something that I think is really successful,� he revealed. “And it does a lot of good.�

t takes true dedication and hard work to make something great come about. Being coaches for a local organization known as “Don’t Shoot...

For the past five years, the two longtime residents of Philadelphia have spent their time working with the “Don’t Shoot� youth as well as the boys and girls in the local neighborhood.

Seeing such guidance and dedication to the youth is something that is needed so much more not just in the local area, but also around the world. With this in mind, it is beyond a doubt that these two men deserve recognition for putting their needs behind for a while, to focus on those more important, the children.

Thanks to the yearly basketball camps, consistent practices, and the guidance of these two coaches, the team has struck success, earning many trophies in the Ivan Pick Brown fun day basketball tournament. President of “Don’t Shoot... I want a Future� Ella Best, who is also a 2012 South Philly Review Difference Maker, claims that even on days when they are personally struggling, the men couldn’t back away. “There were days when they both were not up to the task, but they went just to keep the boys and girls off the streets for a couple hours,� Best said. “They both believe that children should play and have fun, it is important for them to smile and be happy.� Even after long practice days, the

or the past 15 years, Shawn Brown has helped build young teenagers character and values on the football field and in the classroom. Resident of the 1900 block of South Second Street currently works as a seventh grade teacher at Maritime Academy Charter School, where he has been since 2006. In 2000, the father of Brenna, 14, and Abigail, 12, started coaching football for Our Lady of Mount Carmel. But he didn’t take the position just for his love of football; it was for helping his players to build character and learn values for decisions off the field. “It gives kids another avenue,� the 42-year-old said. “We want to help them out with life situations.� Brown’s career path didn’t work how he planned after graduating from Rowan University in 1995, where he played as quarterback on the football team, with a degree in communications. His initial goal was to land a job in radio or television broadcast, but he was offered a job as a pre-school teacher after graduating. “The field was so competitive that I

realized it just wasn’t working out,� the Pennsport dweller said. “That’s where my career change took path.� Since then, he fell in love with teaching children and hasn’t looked back. A year later in 1998, he left to join Transfiguration of Our Lord, where he taught math and science to teenagers. In 2004, he received his master’s degree in elementary education from Temple University. Rumors became rampant in ’13 that the Edward O’Malley Athletic Association’s softball team was shutting down after the commissioner stepped down. “All I wanted to do was stop the rumors of there being no softball, so I said, ‘Listen, I’ll take over,’� Brown recalled of his enthusiasm for the program at 144 Moore St. “I wanted to make sure the girls in the neighborhood had something to do.� This past summer, with the help of the community, Brown and EOM were able to raise $25,000 to fundraise a trip to Florida for the softball team to play in the Wide World of Sports Little League of World Series 12-and-under competition. “My wife [Megan] has been extremely supportive of me; she is fantastic� Brown said. “Without my family’s support, this would be really tough. My kids and my parents included.� Brown believes helping teach kids in class and in sports helps them shape their future, and with his tireless work, aiding at least one child is worth all his trouble. “It’s more than just coaching and football, it’s how you behave and build your character.�

he feeling of bitterness could work to destroy even the highest of aspirations, but if any person reserved the right to hold resentment for his life’s tribulations, it would be Simon “One Punch� Carr. He lost both parents before he turned six years old, parting with his father on the day of his birth, and saw his mother succumb to the agony of being a widow; she would die soon after. To help to channel his anger from a troubled past, a family member would bring a young Simon to Marian Anderson Recreation Center, 740 S. 17th St. Boxing would become “One Punch’s� muse as he would fight to earn a spot on the USA Boxing team heading into the Olympics.

A cruel twist of fate derailed those plans, as he was sentenced to seven-and-a-half to 15 years on a controversial reopened murder case that would be reviewed shortly after an initial self-defense ruling. With every passing day of solitude, the Grays Ferry native could have grown colder, but that was not the story of his life that Carr wanted to be remembered by. He first started by working to overcome the grief of losing his parents. “You need a tenacity at that point, you’re forced in a dark tunnel,� he said. “You don’t have the time, but you’re just trying to find the light. You don’t have the time to look back.� His renewed purpose, along with restarting his boxing career, would be to become the role model that he never had while growing up and that would start with multiple business ventures like Punchline clothing and philanthropic undertakings highlighted by a hip hop based intuitive. “I mentor and manage a few artists, [and] one of them is a kid by the way of South Philadelphia named the Punchline Kid," the difference maker said. “A kid with a troubled past, he has a talent but nobody knew what his talent was. I took him under my wing, and now we are on a national school tour battling violence and bullying.� Through all of the events and purposes that “One Punch� holds dear, he has become the true definition of a difference maker, as he is revered by the people in his community. “It’s a great feeling (to be recognized),� he exclaimed. “I would not change it for anything in the world, I could have been anywhere or been a non-positive, person but taking a 360 (degree) turnaround and being positive is one of the greatest gifts that you can give a person.�

or the past 18 years, Jody Della Barba has been restructuring Girard Estate one block at a time. The 61-year-old has resided in the cherished neighborhood since she was threeyears-old. The 2500 block of South 18th Street resident has been as a member of the Girard Estate Area Residents civic group since 1992, and since ’98, has held the position of president. Her duties on the neighborhood board include preserving parks, reconstructing sidewalks, creating events, and ensuring neighborhood safety. In 2009, the Columbus Day Parade, one of Girard Estates biggest events of the year, was cut due to low funding. With help from former City Council president Anna Verna, and Peter Ciarrocchi, owner of Chickie’s & Pete’s, they formed the 1492 Society, which is the board that now funds the majority of the expenses for the neighborhood’s annual celebration. “The mayor started charging money that was never charged before,� Della Barba said. “It was always a city parade. With the help of Congressman [Bob] Brady, he started the tradition fund when we had to cancel. It wasn’t just me, it was a bunch of people who helped.� Della Barba has maintained connections with state representatives and councilmen to help to improve the area, with Brady, who paid for $17,000 worth or funds for trash cleanup for the Columbus Day Parade, and Second District Councilman Kenyatta Johnson, who originally promised to donate $50,000, and came

back with approximately $350,000, as big benefactors. “It was a gift from Heaven,� Della Barba said of the latter contribution. G.E.A.R. has also built a relationship with St. Monica’s, 2422 S. 17th St., where Della Barba attended school growing up. The local Roman Catholic church hosts neighborhood meetings for important issues and with the help of the civic, which helps bring children to clean parks in the neighborhood. “The park and St. Monica’s are essential places. It’s not treated as a religious place, it’s like a community center,� Della Barba said. “The kids come and help clean up the parks, and we hold festivals there. We all work hand-in-hand.� Next spring, Della Barba plans to repave sidewalks surrounding public parks and schools to ensure the safety of children and local residents. She also hopes to bring in new shops around Oregon Avenue to bring in more revenue to the neighborhood. “The people are wonderful and the schools are wonderful,� she said. “It’s a unique and historic neighborhood in South Philadelphia. Where I live is the greatest place in the world.�

s far as enthusiasm for one’s block, neighborhood, school catchment and city, Jennifer Devor’s blend of optimism is contagious. And though it all started in Lake Hiawatha, NJ with her mother as an example, her local leadership began when she matriculated at the University of the Arts College of Media and Communications and caught the Philly activist bug. The six-year resident of the 1500 block of South Carlisle Street has been volunteering and working in several arenas of civic leadership and shows no signs of slowing down. “I have this empowering and yet overwhelming life philosophy of ‘If not you, then who?’ If I see a challenge or an opportunity that will positively affect the people I love, the people of my community, then I have to take it,� she said. Devor’s the board secretary for Diversified Community Services, a board member of Neighbors Invested in Childs Elementary (NICE), a committee person in the 36th ward of the 37th voting division, and a block captain in her neck of Point Breeze. Diversified is especially near and dear to her, saying they “provide leader-

ad he not felt a calling to the priesthood, Rev. John Deegan, rather than having OSA after his name to signify his allegiance to the Order of St. Augustine, would have penned DDS on business cards and correspondence. Deciding to leave tending to teeth to others, he elected to lead individuals to God’s light, with the last 11 years going toward strengthening struggling locals through the Augustinian Defenders of the Rights of the Poor. “The face of poverty is diverse, and it’s of the utmost importance never to stigmatize and always to recognize the dignity of everyone and the beauty of every creation of God,� the 80-year-old said from his brainchild’s headquarters within St. Edmond’s parish, 2130 S. 21st St. ADROP has conducted operations through the West Passyunk site for two years, with Deegan citing its creation as a direct response to Catholicism’s fundamental option for the poor principle. Dealing with working families in need of corporeal and spiritual comfort, it has benefited more than 1,000 clans through Deegan and a committed collection of volunteers. “The Church calls for dedication to the human family, and we all need to become educated on that and cease judgments over a person’s or a group’s misfortune,� the priest, an alumnus of Villanova University and director of the justice and peace office for the province of Saint Thomas of Villanova, said of holding hope for an increase in compassion and companionship. “In Philadelphia, because of its Augustinian heritage, that need becomes

As for NICE, she said she “heard all these terrible rumors about Philly public schools, but then [when I] actually knew these kids who went to G.W. Childs, it just didn’t add up. The right story wasn’t being told about our schools.� Everyone wants to help the school, and the help comes from every possible neighborhood demographic. As a committee person, a role she went for after a yearlong political fellowship at the Center for Progressive Leadership, she does her best to educate and mobilize voters so that they can enact change. “If enough people come out and demand change, it will happen. And you demand that change with your vote,� she said. She eagerly puts together the Devor Report with her voting picks and reasoning every year, and it’s grown from something she gives to her friends to a 200-deep newsletter readership. As block captain, she argues that she’s just the formal head of block teamwork and that everyone does the work – she’s just the city’s liason for things like permitting and 311 accountability. “This is our home, not just our physical house but the block, the division, the Point Breeze neighborhood,� she stressed. @Sd 8]V\ 2SSUO\ “It’s really wonderful.�

Highly conscious of the call to connect with one’s neighbor no matter that person’s possessions or problems, the religious figure, who next year will mark 55 years as a priest and promoter of saintly interactions among people regardless of their religious allegiance, believes everyone has difference maker potential if positivity can outperform its negative nemesis. “The hills can be steep sometimes,� Deegan said. “For what’s at stake, though, we must persevere.�

ikely a product of her own North Carolina upbringing, surrounded by a family full of compassion for animals in Durham, Lindsay Duggan is the go-to consultant in her part of Point Breeze for all things related to rescuing and fostering dogs. The four-year resident of the 1400 block of South 17th Street is what her nominator calls a “powerhouse of information on shelters.� She’s been a dog walker, teaching herbalist, and independent business owner for years, but her unofficial life’s work is fostering, rehabilitating and getting abandoned dogs adopted. “Dogs have been a lot of my life for a

long time,� she said with a round belly, about to embark on her third trimester with a baby girl due Jan. 7. She works regularly with the Philly Pac K-9 Enrichment Center at 17th and McKean streets that specializes in obedience, socialization, behavioral and general dog training with the aim of readying stray and abused dogs for adoption. She has many awfully sad stories to tell about fosters she’s seen come and go, often in her own home, but maintains that even the folks at Animal Control (who do a lot of euthanizing) do really important work. “You become not numb to things but things don’t surprise me anymore. It sucks,� she admitted. She’s seen dogs chained up, bleeding and left in empty lots, as well as dogs that’ve been adopted multiple times and abandoned for repeatedly biting their adoptees. “We have a problem in Philly, but you can’t save them all,� she says, and credits Animal Control, the SPCA and PAWS for giving it their best: “They try really hard to get everyone adopted.� She’s also seen great and uplifting success stories, like a little yorkie that was running around Girard Estate, groomed and cared for, seemingly the survivor of a deceased owner who loved her extensively. The dog was quickly adopted by another elderly woman who was looking for a lap dog. She passionately defends pitbulls, who often get a bad rap for aggressive behaviors, but explains that it’s often behavior born out of fear that gets them a bad rap. “It’s not that they’re aggressive animals, but if they’re scared, that’s where people think dogs are mean – it’s just fear,� she explained. “They learn how to handle it, and they learn that you’re an advocate for them.�

n March 26, 1990, Deborah Francis entered the Philadelphia Police workforce. Twenty-five years later, on Feb. 9, 2015, she was promoted to Captain of the 17th Philadelphia Police District, 1201 S. 20th St., which oversees parts of South Philadelphia neighborhoods such as Point Breeze. Before working here, Francis served the 4th Philadelphia Police District and was the Commanding Officer of the Recruiting Unit for the whole city of Philadelphia. “This is a team environment in this district,� Francis said. “I have so many officers here that are constantly engaging in the community every day. I’m always out in the community, and I love interacting with people. I can’t just sit behind a desk.� The Northeast Philly resident’s desire to go into policing originated from her role model, her father. Francis’s patriarch was a Philadelphia Police Officer while she was growing up, and she would worry every night shift he worked for his safety, but knew whatever he was doing was for the benefit of making Philadelphia a safer city. “I always admired him as to what he was doing,� Francis said. “Just by him being an officer and knowing that he was helping kids was how my image of it all was. I wanted to be someone who brought change or positive influence to help the image that this community has seen.� At the beginning of the school year, Francis and the Community Relations Team donated school supplies for children at Chester A. Arthur, Edwin M. Stanton and George W. Childs schools. She be-

He reports that 65 percent of his business is from the 19147 zip and another 20 or so from 19146 and 19148. For 13 years he’s watched those zips grow and helped folks towards home ownership. “It’s been super fun and exciting to see the changes,� he said, “which are all good in my opinion – I think it’s great.� He also owns several places that he rents in East Passyunk Crossing: two at Seventh and Tasker streets; one on South Beulah Street; one at Fourth and Fitzwater streets; plus one at 21st and Federal streets. His work brings him to nearly every neighborhood registered community organization south of South Street. “I’ve been to every and any neighborhood association [meeting] at some point because it’s part of my job,� he says, namely the East Passyunk Crossing civic from where he received his nomination. Part of his nomination applauded his work with the Philadelphia Gay Men’s Chorus, an organization where he’s vice president and whom he helped to rescue from dire financial straits with a nowiconic fundraising event. “We all worked hard and it became the Fall Ball Masquerade fundraiser, and this year it’s at the Loewes Hotel,� he said. The Philadelphia Gay News-winning event for Best Gay Fundraiser takes place on Oct. 17 and Democratic mayoral candidate Jim Kenney is the event’s honorary co-chair. “[Kenney] and [First District Councilman Mark] Squilla have been great friends that have been there every year,� the Queen Village resident said. “It’s been 2SP]`O 4`O\QWa a life-saver for the chorus.�

You don’t realize how important school is until you’re out.� As Captain, she has goals to bring together a community of equality and shared values. Her dream is to decrease crime in her district, promote education, and steer conversation regarding economical class and build an area where families can all feel equally rich. “It’s unfortunate in policing that the tension through different shooting incidents across the country has now put a negative umbrella under us. But it’s our job to go out there and show them it’s not just policing,� Francis said. “If I can just be that person who has that small voice and gives people value, then I will be that person. Everybody should feel value.�

hile it may not be a documented statistic, South Philadelphia seems to have the highest amount of happy pets in the city from the sheepish, pink sweater wearing pitbulls to the snarling Chihuahuas snapping at ankles; the demand to keep these pets healthy may be high, but Dr. Christina Fuoco and Whole Animal Gym, 611 S. 2nd St., is up to the task no matter species or size. Fuoco opened WAG in 2010 after earning a B.A. in French at the University of Notre Dame, a VMD (Veterinariae Medicinae Doctoris) from the University of Pennsylvania and then working with private practices such as Pittman Animal Hospital and Queen Village Animal Hospital. Fuoco speaks of her time as a general practitioner glowingly although she has her very own practice now. “Being a general practitioner in veterinary medicine is a great experience,� the resident of the 900 block of South 10th Street said. “You get to meet a wide variety of people and get to help a lot of different pets in different situations. It was a very good background for me.� Although the Notre Dame alumna was happy working with the private practices, opening WAG offered her a new opportu-

nity to focus more on quality of life and pain management aspects of her profession while adopting an Eastern World philosophy to veterinary medicine. “I starting doing veterinary acupuncture in 2003 and some research at the same time that would go with physical therapy,� Fuoco said. “I found that the two are really amazing in what they can do for veterinary patients. Then I got my training in rehab, which is what we call physical therapy in the veterinary world, which brought me to open up WAG.� The doctor’s diverse knowledge in veterinary medicine helps make WAG a truly unmatched resource for South Philly’s pet owners and the first of its kind animal rehabilitation center in the area offering hydrotherapy, acupuncture, LASER and ultrasound treatments. While her expertise in a wide assortment of areas distinguishes the Queen Village-situated site, her caring attitude for every patient that she comes in contact with makes her a great doctor. “(The most rewarding thing) is to see animals feel better and how much better that makes pet owners feel. They are part of the family and when they aren’t feeling well or hurting, everybody in the family is affected so if we can make that four-legged family member feel better that just keeps the whole family happy.�

many others, she could have succumbed to dire circumstances, but “surrender� has never received much use in her vocabulary, so she has summoned her memories and might to combat homicide’s hold on our city and nation. “Chaos can’t win, no matter the severity of your pain,� the East Passyunk Crossing resident said of her healing process. “I feel that when you have a cross to bear, lift it up.� With “advocate� also among her classifications, due to activism work here and in Florida, the Cuban-born figure has spent the last eight-and-a-half months promoting means to deal with and ultimately quell homicides, notably through a podcast and justiceforalexnow.com.

eople can flex their vocabulary muscles and load sentences with lengthy words to explain their consideration for their communities, but Frank Genzano, of the 2600 block of South Colorado Street, prefers to be blunt when briefing anyone on his motivation. “It’s nice to be nice,� the 40-year-old said of his enthusiasm for spreading positivity, the biggest example of which comes through his presidency of the Melrose Civic Association. “I want to spot needs and make my neighborhood as communal as possible.� Genzano enjoyed the genesis of his duties to others as a West Passyunk-reared boy, with adulthood yielding the key to perpetual progress. “The best way to give back to the community is by staying here,� the husband to Andrea and father of Nicholas and Marisa said. “I had chances to leave here for career purposes, but this is my home, and I’m dedicated to strengthening it.� Locals residing between Oregon Avenue and Wolf Street between Broad and 19th streets reap the rewards of his regard for their situations, with the third-year civic association, which he helped to found, especially concerned for crestfallen denizens. Their plight and potential inspire Genzano to encourage the suppression of sadness and the rise of respect. “Deep down, everyone needs some sort of support,� he said. “Through our registered community organization, we recognize that and do our best to touch lives.� Bonds with Toys for Tots and the Salvation Army have meant less taxing holiday seasons for two downtrodden families.

mong other swipes, millennials often face criticism as self-serving figures bent on bellowing their stances on various topics minus much experience to back their beliefs. At only 24, Lily Goodspeed is gathering an abundance of evidence to support their claim that each individual can contribute to the cultivation

of a community, with outreach coordinator duties for Scout Ltd.’s Building Bok endeavor helping her to further residents’ already robust awareness of and affinity for their neighborhoods. “I’m just one piece of a giant mosaic of people looking to foster change,� the resident of the 1100 block of Ellsworth Street said within the former Edward Bok Technical High School, 1901 S. Ninth St., through which she looks to attract nonprofit organizations and community entities to offer the historic institution new life. “It’s been great to interact with so many South Philadelphians in my mission to know the soul of the city.� Holding that residents possess a real sense of ownership of their environs, Goodspeed started to intensify her comprehension of their allegiance Sept. 1, joining the Scout team following fulfilling AmeriCorps VISTA duties at Southwark School, 1835 S. Ninth St. The Passyunk Square inhabitant considers South Philly’s diversity a delightful characteristic and finds that even with so many different cultures, everyone can gain when recognizing and appreciating common ground. “Generosity, compassion, and encouragement, these help communities to thrive,� Goodspeed, who last month documented the tales of locals and Bok alumni through Scout’s StoryCorps initiative, said. “People are really proud of their neighborhoods, and we know the significance of this space. That’s why we want its redevelopment to reflect that though the school is gone, education and growth can still occur.� Proud to represent the millennial set, the Brown University product also campaigns for sound policies on land use, public space and transportation as a 5th Square board member. Also the author of a guide to inspire citizens to assist their local schools, she certainly counters naysayers who would opine that her generation knows little about being true contributors, but that fact and difference maker recognition cannot hinder her humility. “I’m no different from anyone else working for a community organization,� she said. “I just want to continue to help people.�

n account of her Catholic faith, Kim Milano believes God puts people in one’s path for a reason, so when a June 29 doctor’s appointment placed her in the presence of a woman and her two children, including a boy using a walker, she knew learning of their situation and assisting with their difficulties must become her mission. With more than three months elapsed since she went out on a whim and took an interest in their lives, the individuals and their patriarch have become terrific friends to the Packer Park inhabitant, husband Mark and their offspring. “They like to call me an angel, but I’m just someone who felt I could relieve them of some of their burden,� Milano said of the Puerto Rican residents of North Philly. “Because of the connection that we’ve struck, I consider them a part of my family.� Having sought first the help of the doctor’s office and then a social worker, she reveled in early August when establishing contact with the brood. Acting immediately, Milano, though not interested in accepting the divine title from the beneficiaries, has displayed divine diligence in spearheading efforts to secure a car, school supplies, uniforms and a computer for the foursome and in helping the boy to celebrate his birthday last month. “We all have a bunch of responsibilities,� the 47-year-old, who works as support for

her maker. The Indiana native and Purdue University-educated trailblazer has been overcoming odds since enrolling at Purdue University at 15. She made her way from Chicago to Philadelphia in 1982 when she was working in labor relations with Consolidated Rails. But labor wasn’t the only arena where she’d go on to make waves. Namely, she helped developed an affirmative action policy at the University of Pennsylvania when she specialized in human resources. After that groundbreaking work, she was invited to work in public safety and used that momentum to achieve another first. “While I was doing that [work at Penn], I was asked to put some public safety programs together for a couple companies, and I told myself that if I can do that for them, then I can do that for myself,� she said. “So I opened up a security company for myself.� That was a private detective agency, which would become the first womanowned and the first African Americanled organization of its kind in the state of Pennsylvania. “I had not known at the time that there were no minority or woman owners of a private detective agency in the state until the District Attorney’s office told me when I had to go over for clearance. I was just amazed,� she admitted. More recently, the resident of 11th and Bainbridge streets has spearheaded a work readiness and culinary training organization that prepares 18-year-olds and older for work in restaurants, bakeries and other food service jobs. “You have a lot of people who want to jumpstart their lives again, and you’re able to help them with that,� she says of the work that takes place in her church, the New Hope Temple, 711 S. 12th St. “Several of my students have opened bakeries.

s the Producing Artistic Director of InterAct Theatre Company, Seth Rozin does more than direct and guide plays to production. He mentors, encourages and even houses actors in his Italian Market house in an effort to diversify the city’s pool of theater talent. His nomination came from a recent SPR Lifestyles subject, Bi Jean Ngo, an Asian-

American performer who has relied on Rozin for guidance throughout her career and in the development of her own group, PAPA (Philadelphia Asian Performing Artists). The InterAct leader has been on the 900 block of Kimball Street for almost exactly 15 years, and he couldn’t be happier about it. “I love it. It’s the best investment, and not just financially, [it’s been] one of the best decisions of my life,� Rozin says of his move from Center City to the Bella Vista staple of diverse food and cultures. “I love my block and my neighbors and what I’m close to. Ethnically, racially, class, there’s all these old families who’ve been here forever and now all these new people of all different kinds moving in – it’s just a lovely blend.� His company’s led the charge for a new hub of theater in the city at the Drake Hotel on Spruce Street, which will house his and four other theater companies and become a hub for theater-makers as a social space as well. But his own home’s seen barbecues, play readings and many visiting artists over the past 15 years. “I think the number is now 19 people that have stayed at my house. Overwhelmingly they’ve been actors, more often than not actors of a particular ethnic type that we don’t have enough of in Philly,� he said. The actors get to know his neighbors and often he’s asked “Hey, when’s so-and-so coming back? They see my neighbors more than I do.� He’s put a great deal of effort into making structural changes to his home to ensure that visitors have their own bathroom and access to a kitchen. In its 28th season, InterAct’s artistic missions are decidedly progressive, but not necessarily in the way one would think. Rozin says he’s committed to providing his often liberal audiences with thought-provoking work that challenges assumptions that liberalism is the right way to think. “Why do we accept one thing so automatically and go completely ballistic about something else?� he asked. “That’s what I’m really interested in – trying to poke at the assumptions we make.�

ing a degree in Vocal Performance per the University of the Arts, and a lifetime of spectacular singing showcases, Difference Maker Regina Smith is guaranteed a legacy cemented in Philadelphia’s collective consciousness, but her goal is not for personal recollection; it is to make every person she passes feel remembered. Smith’s desire to touch the lives of any whom she encounters was created early in life by tagging along with her grandparents’ volunteer work. “Every Saturday, we would go out to different churches in West Philly...we would help pass out utensils to homeless people and people who are down on their luck, and we helped make a meal for them.� For a six-year old to be schooled so early on life’s hard knocks it could be frightening, though her grandparents cultivated a lesson that young Regina would take into adulthood. “My grandparents, they were older but they taught me to be open minded. Sometimes old people could be very set in their ways, but they were very liberal about being there for people and not judging.� That teaching of a judgement-free zone constructed by her elders gave the resident of the 900 block of South 21st Street the mental fortitude always to be a listening ear when needed. “Some of the stories you hear would be horrific, but you take them in your heart pray for them and always remember that no person wants to be forgotten,� Smith said. In those same conditions that forged her loving personality also developed a powerful but unsure voice. “We would fold napkins and stuff like that while they were getting the food ready, and someone would say sing a song... My Grandmother would push me

because I am shy but when I would sing they would see this energy and zeal. Then I would go back to my Grandparents like ‘Ok, I can do this’.� The blending of her background in performance and philanthropy helped grant her the opportunities to work with an impressive assortment of causes past and present. Smith helped lend an assisting hand to Philadelphia Block Captains and also Youth Aid Councilors educating the community in STD prevention. The South Philadelphia resident’s heart, though, is what keepd her striving to achieve and help while she additionally stuns with her vocal mastery.

very weekend morning for the last two years, Nina Spagnoli leaves an open schedule to devote her time to the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society, an animal shelter that fosters abandoned and stray dogs and cats to care for them and ensure they have a stable home to be raised and loved. Her normal duties include cleaning cat cages and knitting blankets to keep them warm at night. “They can’t talk to you and tell you what’s wrong,� Spagnoli said. “I know that when I’m helping them it makes me feel really good.� Spagnoli has had an enduring love for animals her entire life. As a child, she had two cats, and has always felt animals have been a vital part of her identity. Over the course of her volunteering tenure, the 29-year-old has adopted a handful of cats to take care of at home while being a part of PAWS. Her most recent adoption in June 2014 is Boo, an 8-year-old cat who was found as a stray and was rescued and sent to PAWS. “He’s scared of everything,� Spagnoli said. “I have another dog, and they’re like

a legal service company and who strengthens the home and school association at the Girard Academic Music Program, 2136 W. Ritner St., said. “However, we have to focus on being less selfish; after all, life is about giving, not getting.� In keeping with that contention, Milano welcomes the quartet and a translator to her home each week, with the connection between her descendants and the family’s children and the sincerity of the exchanges furthering her desire to add even more brightness to the one-time strangers’ lives. “It’s been a real family effort to handle everything, and I’d say my four children and husband are huge helpers in reminding people that giving of oneself is truly receiving.� With more efforts on the horizon, including pondering holiday enjoyment, each correspondence between the two households excites the difference maker, who again called on her belief system to explain her attraction to empowering the ever-improving strangers-turned-loved ones. “I had to do this,� Milano, who set up gofundme.com/LoveforLuis to help her new friends, said. “God put this in my heart, and I love the generosity that everyone has shared in helping me to help them.�

:?<<;H;D9; C7A;HI best friends, it’s so weird. I just wish they could all have a home.� The 2900 block of South Franklin Street resident has lived in South Philadelphia her entire life, and has worked full-time at Jefferson University Hospital since 2013. She always tries her best to be eco-friendly and sustainable by traveling around the city with her bike as much as possible to reduce air pollution. Spagnoli works with cats that have a bit more feisty behavior than most of the others. By working with them, her plan is to aid them to become friendlier around potential adopters so they feel comfortable and can eventually find a new home. Her inspiring dream, however, is to open an adoption center for abandoned animals in Philadelphia. “Shelters in Philadelphia euthanize a lot, and they usually just put an animal down just because of lack of faith if it isn’t adopted or fostered,� Spagnoli said. “From then on I just wanted to make my own rescue one day or even a shelter. I always felt I was always going to be emotionally attached with them, but I know that I’m helping them.�

he instinct to help others is often instilled at a young age and with extensive tutelage from 2015 Difference Maker Rebecca Wanner, her son, Joaquin, will surely continue with his mother’s philanthropic spirt from his presence at her assortment of volunteer efforts. The resident of Seventh and Wolf streets has been a vital part of the Friends of Mifflin Square Park since joining the coalition three years ago. “Friends of Mifflin Square is an allvolunteer group that basically organizes clean-ups to beautify the park and organize events taking place in the park,� Wanner said. While she plays a vital role in the group’s forefront activities in the park, she also assists in the behind-the-scenes

workings around the recreational site, Sixth and Ritner streets. “My role is trying to get grants from places like the Fairmount Park Conservancy for some of the events and activities that we have in the park and then also planning the activities that we have.� No matter the volunteer venture that Wanner is participating in, the one constant is the quality time that she spends with her son to make everything that much more rewarding with the teachings that he receives, even if aging has made him slightly more rambunctious. “When he was younger, it was pretty easy to have him but now that he is four, he has a hard time sitting through meetings,� she said. He may not have fun at the meeting, but I want him to be a part of something. Then he has fun at the events�. Colleagues often call the duo inseparable, and a look into her past as a school teacher makes apparent that her intelligence and motherly instincts shine. She had eight years of teaching experience at Youth Build Charter School, North Philadelphia Community High School, and as a reading instructor at the Center for Literacy. While she is not currently teaching, Wanner volunteers at Francis Key Elementary, 2230 S. Eighth St., to aid her comunity school wherever she is needed, especially with her superior skills in grant writing.

As a devoted husband of 37 years to wife Margie and a proud father, he emphasizes the importance of family in his daily dealings, with the welfare of children a motivating factor for his pledge to the playground, which he noted will receive alterations beginning next month. “These kids nowadays need more help than we ever did,� West said. “I want them to be safe here. Frankly, I want everyone happy when entering.� As an Eagles season ticket holder for more than 40 years, he loves being a part of a fervent flock of fans, and though Lincoln Financial Field offers an immense share of sheer joy, Burke is his true nest. “I just do my part,� he said of receiving Difference Makers distinction. “Knowing I’m helping is enough for me.�

better and as a shining example of what public recreation should be.� The Northeast Philly dweller last month celebrated 14 years as a City employee, with more than half of his tenure going toward assisting children ages five through 14 in excelling as hockey players. Their motivation has meant much to the overseer, whose enthusiasm for molding young lives comes from his father, Pete, a retired Parks & Recreation staffer. “I joke that I was hired for my leadership skills and not my hockey ability,� Tomasetti said of his local employment, as he has never been much of a puck-heavy practitioner. “I have really come to appreciate the sport, though, especially because of the great friendships that I have made here and the awesome families who have walked through the door.� As temperatures tumble, plenty of youths will warm their hearts by interacting with Tomasetti, who would love to give them more peers through his yearning to welcome those as old as 18 to the rink, one of five City-operated spaces. “We’re concerned with people over profits,� the leader said of Rizzo’s lowcost opportunities. “We want for parents and kids to be as happy coming here as we are to be here for them.� Blessed to have an amazing advisory council and staff, Tomasetti sees his honor as a reflection of their diligence, too. “I’m touched to be among the difference makers,� he said. “However, like everyone here, I’m ‘we-centric’ and not ‘I-centric.’�

ometimes there are bumps in the road, dear reader, in this chemo thing. I wound up with a blood clot in the neck area that is somehow related to the port in my chest. My wife noticed the swelling. (Note to Stephen Colbert, a devout Catholic who rejects idea that we all have a guardian angel sitting on our shoulder. Uncle Nunzi says I have had one for 51 years. My wife. Thankfully, she is alive and does not sit on my shoulder.) The nurse practitioner confirms my beloved’s diagnosis. I am quickly hustled off for an ultrasound again confirming the estimation. I will be self-injecting a blood thinner for the next four to six months (the clot itself will disappear in a week). Watching me inject during a recent visit, Uncle Nunzi remarked I looked as if I were enjoying the process too much. He calls me “Frankie Machine,� which was the much underrated role Frank Sinatra played as a heroin addict in the Otto Preminger film “The Man with the Golden Arm.� I can attest self-injection is not a form of self-love. It’s occurred to me our entire body politic needs a kind of blood thinner to dissolve its log jam. The only thing both sides agree on in Washington and in Harrisburg is that nothing gets done. In Harrisburg, Gov. Tom Wolf has shown his creative ideas come to a grinding halt when it comes to our antiquated state liquor stores. As part of any compromise on the budget, he is being asked to privatize the State’s liquor stores. Instead, Wolf offers a public-private approach that resembles a stage coach with the front end of an Edsel. Privatize the State liquor stores, and call the Republicans’ bluff on raising taxes on fracking for fracking’s sake. We witnessed a weeping John Boehner announce he will resign as the Speaker of the House at the end of October. He is one of those guys who unabashedly like their bronzer and liquor maybe a little too much, and has been cursed with the tear ducts of Dick Vermeil. He is also a guy who used to be willing to cut a deal. Boehner had to get in bed with the nutty carnivores of his party to get his job, and alas, they ate him alive. The inmates, also known as the Tea Party, fully funded by self-interested billionaires, are running the asylum. There

is no injection powerful enough, except maybe another defeat in the presidential election in 2016, to dissolve the clot that has afflicted the GOP. The Papal Visit is being assessed in terms of whether it was a win or a loss for Philadelphia. The city receives more appreciation from its visitors than from its citizens, and that needs consideration when digesting the visit’s positives and negatives. As one who defended the right to criticize the over-the-top security measures prior to the pontiff’s stay, I find myself dismayed over Mayor Michael Nutter’s attempt to blame the media for the much-lower-thananticipated turnout. He relied on the politician’s favorite bromide in apologizing for the profanity - the likelihood of getting rebuked by dear old mom. The media did not ridiculously overestimate the size of the expected turnout of 1 to 1.5 million. The media also did not force ticket-holding folks to wait four to five hours only to find out the Pope’s mass ended before they received access. It wasn’t the media that shut down bus service and bridges or pleaded with Center City restaurants to stay open for non-existent customers. Only the Negadelphians cannot see the overall success of the visit. Philadelphia received a showcase via national television, and visitors found it to be a friendly, warm, open city, rather than the hostile environment previously portrayed. We have our flaws, but tough as this is to swallow, Philadelphia is a great city. Get used to it. Pope Francis didn’t prevent the negative feelings, he plain overcame them, though I accept his explanation he did not endorse the political positions of Kim Davis. Religious freedom is not the issue with Ms. Davis; her failure to perform her sworn duty is. The private meeting with the Pope was bound to send the wrong message. Pope Francis is the positive injection we need. His presence could be compared to the uplift we get during the Christmas holidays every year. He cannot right all of his Church’s wrongs, but he did shine a brief light in the tunnel to show there just might be a way out. I worry that like Christmas, the Pope’s message will have a brief shelf life. The most successful injections must be done periodically or the benefits are negated, and the clot returns. Treat others as we would treat ourselves. Realize we are the stewards of the earth and must reverse climate change or perish. Practice tolerance for our differences. Know we do not have to ditch capitalism to help the most poor among us. Peace. +(* Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

Once you return the completed certiďŹ cate to the South Philly Review ofďŹ ce, you will be automatically entered into a drawing where you have the chance to win a SPR prize pack including tickets to local attractions and events! CertiďŹ cates are only $15 and are on sale now at the South Philly Review ofďŹ ce located at 12th & Porter Sts.. A portion of all ticket sales will beneďŹ t local area schools.

ne who fritters mismanages resources such as time and opportunity, but someone who makes fritters will never have to worry if he or she has improperly used precious minutes. Kathleen Valle, of the 2600 block of Dudley Street, has consistently sent this publication outstanding options, and she strikes again with a recipe for Ricotta Fritters, an option sure to have readers lauding themselves for fitting the preparation process into their schedules. The Grays Ferry inhabitant knows quite well about South Philadelphians’ love of ricotta, so she generously includes one-and-a-half cups of the goodie in this concoction. Perhaps reminding herself that residents also combine ricotta and chocolate chips together in cannoli, she suggested adding the dairy delight to the mix. +(*

utumn arrived two weeks ago and with it came a spate of new restaurant openings. British, Montrealstyle bistro, Greek/Cypriot, FrenchNorth African and all-American cuisines will dazzle out taste buds as the cool weather brings hearty appetites. Chef Sam Jacobson recently opened Stargazy, 1838 E. Passyunk Ave. It features meat pies, both savory and sweet. I enjoyed steak and kidney pie in London and wondered why no one served this warming dish in Philadelphia. A side of mash comes with the savory pies, which are topped with parsley sauce. The delights may contain lamb, or there might be a vegetarian version. Sausage rolls are also on order. Desserts feature sticky toffee pudding and the classic Eton mess, which includes meringues, raspberries or strawberries and whipped cream topping. I have not been to Stargazy yet, but I hope Jacobson sells HP Sauce. About 10 years ago, Chef Konstantinos Pitsillides opened Kanella in Washington Square. This BYOB quickly became a popular spot for those who craved the kinds of dishes served in Greek homes. Kanella, which means cinnamon in Greek, has moved to larger quarters at 757 S. Front St. and now has a liquor license. I hope some of my favorite dishes such as first-rate grilled octopus, savory Greek meatballs, assorted vegetables, stuffed peppers, rich oxtail stew, grilled leg of rabbit and lamb kofta will be featured at the new location. Chef Andy Tessier will take us to Montreal, one of my favorite dining cities. His restaurant, Coeur, just opened at 824 S. Eighth St. on the site of the former James and The Mildred. Coeur, which means heart in French, features a rotisserie oven so I know a whole roast chicken can warm us up on a cool autumn evening. Fresh autumn vegetables will keep vegetarians happy as well. Poutine is a classic Montreal bistro appetizer prepared with French fries, covered in gravy and topped with cheese curds. I hope the restaurant will serve Montreal smoked meat. It is the Canadian version of pastrami, but the smoky flavor is unique. The focus of Coeur will be on craft beer and wine, although the restaurant has a full bar.

delphia Taproom, 1509 Mifflin St., and American Sardine Bar, 1800 Federal St., will open the Hungry Pigeon, 743 S. Fourth St. The logo is adorable; it features a pigeon with a bib tied around its neck. Although the menu is not online yet, the site will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. A focus will be on fresh made-inhouse pastries and coffee to wake us up. Dinner will be family-style. Warm comforting American fare will be served, including pigeon, which I ate in England. I am sure Schroeder will have the perfect hand in preparing a dish that may become a classic. Chef Joncarl Lachman will switich his focus from the foods of the Netherlands and Belgium to France and North Africa when he opens Neuf, 943 S. Ninth St. Neuf means nine in French, thus the location is on 9th Street. Neuf has a full liquor license.The cuisine is very different from the fare he expertly serves at Noord, 1046 Tasker St. Lamb and goat will probably take pride of place here, as these are staples in the dishes of Morocco. Tagines, the famous rich hearty stews prepared with chicken or lamb and assorted vegetables, eggplant dishes, fresh figs and almonds most probably will put in appearances. As I write this, I am getting hungry for b’stilla, a classic pigeon pie from Morocco. It is prepared with pigeon (or chicken thighs), onions, saffron, garlic, minced parsley, almonds and other ingredients, which are cooked down and encased in phyllo. The pie is dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar after it is removed piping hot from the oven. I hope Lachman has it on the menu. +(* Comment on this restaurant or review at southphillyreview.com/food-and-drink/reviews.

n affinity for family has always proven the foremost factor in helping Vanessa Flacco to craft her culinary identity. With Italian heritage as the unrivaled instructor in affirming food as a bonding agent, she has made meal preparation her professional obsession, and come Oct. 14, the 36-year-old will celebrate the official opening of Don Quixote Tapas & Things, 526 S. Fourth St. “Growing up with great cooks, I was always in a kitchen, and I learned that eating could be such an educational experience,� she said from her Queen Village establishment. “There’s the sharing of food, of course, but there’s conversation, too, and I wanted a spot that would have that comfortable, welcoming feeling to it.� The New Jersey inhabitant noted she has consistently worked in the City of Brotherly Love and confessed an attraction to its allure as a cultural and culinary heavyweight. Its diversity inspired her menu, where one can find an interesting Spanish influence, which she also acknowledges through the name of the space, an homage to the titular character in Miguel de Cervantes’ 17th-century classic. “I want to be able to serve everybody, and I think with these options, especially our small plates items, people can find something enjoyable and feel at ease, which is something I’ve always liked feeling when gathering with my relatives,� Flacco said. With training from Baltimore National College, the proprietor has yearned to have her caring nature come through in her creations, with diners from the location’s soft opening particularly enjoying her Albondigas. “Some people were just speechless because of the flavors,� she said of the meatball dish that appears on the hot tapas section with eight other choices. “The albordigas are pretty much what I’m about

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): You have been struggling with some difficult tasks, so seriously consider hiring someone to perform the heaviest or more expert jobs. That way you can catch up with a backlog of work. Lucky number: 103.

f

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): A friend’s or partner’s moodiness is making your life miserable. If attempts to bring cheer do not succeed fairly quickly, find something more pleasant to do. Be realistic about a relationship that no longer makes you happy. Lucky number: 454.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): A friend or paramour is set to start a new creative pastime but will not want your involvement. You feel like an onlooker, as this is one of those hobbies the person will share with fellow enthusiasts. Do not worry, as the novelty will soon wear off. Lucky number: 257.

h

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): Getting the hang of some innovative work changes will take time, but they will ultimately make life easier for you. Your willingness to accept novelty will make a favorable impression on the boss. Lucky number: 584.

A

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): At times you are flush with cash, at others you have little to spare. It seems a law of life that money arrives through one door and goes out through another almost immediately. Lucky number: 085.

S

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): It pays to monitor events from behind the scenes. Keep your plans to yourself, or you will part with all gained progress. A rival will be quick to snatch

Rose Calabrese

(nee Locante), Passed away quietly September 24, 2015 in Sun City Center, Florida. Rose is preceded in death by her parents, Gabriele and Giulia Locante; husband Joseph; brothers Agillio (Josephine), Antillio (Perina) and Fiore (Amelia); sister, Virginia Piccone (Jack); her daughters in-law Catherine and Kimberly. A parishioner of Annunciation BVM Church, Rose was an active member of Sodality dedicating her time to prayer and works of charity. Rose was also a member of the South Philadelphia Older Adult Center where she loved to play bingo and pokeno. When Rose was not at the church or center, the family home was always a warm place to sit and socialize. The aromas from the kitchen enticed family and friends especially on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day where the door was always open and the central gathering place. She loved her South Philly. Rose is survived by her sons Carmen and Vincent (Eleanor) and daughter, Julia Brennan (Richard), twelve grandchildren, nine great grandchildren and her many loving nephews and nieces as well as grand nephews and nieces. Rose will be dearly missed by all but we smile knowing she is in heaven encouraging those with her to “mangia, mangia.� Visitation and Funeral Saturday, October 10th 9am with mass to begin at 10am. Annunciation B.V.M. Church, 10th and Dickinson, Philadelphia. Int. SS Peter and Paul

illiam Gahagan, who for more than 35 years served as a boy scout leader for Troop 147, headquartered at 18th and Wolf streets, passed away Sept. 30. Residing on the 2600 block of South Hicks Street at the time of his death, Mr. Gahagan proved instrumental in the organization’s role in strengthening the lives of local youngsters, with the entity’s 100th anniversary celebration in April as his most recent triumph. “He was very practical and thoughtful,� scoutmaster Chris Menna, a 2011 South Philly Review Difference Maker, said of the fallen figure, whom he met in 1980. “With Bill, it was always obvious that everything had to be about the kids. He loved interacting with them and helping them to form their value systems and to believe in what they could be in life.� Mr. Gahagan’s family said contributions in his memory can go to doctorswithoutborders.org. --- By Joseph Myers +(* Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/briefs.
