“Intelligence plus character—that is the goal of true education.” Martin Luther King, Jr. said that. Of all the jewels of wisdom he left us, this is the one I call upon most often, and it has never felt more fitting than in this issue where education meets philanthropy. Among these pages you will meet some of the most accomplished and inspiring young people who are using all of the knowledge they have aquired both in the classroom and in life to stimulate positive change in their community. Narrowing down the impressive list of nominees for our first ever New Voices of Philanthropy was a difficult yet rewarding task, and we must thank our partners at Community Foundation of Louisville, the great stewards of nonprofits in Kentucky, for guiding us through the process. Perhaps most exciting for me through this process was the opportunity to learn about charitable organizations of which I was formerly not aware, like Mahogany Foster and Young Authors Greenhouse, but also to be reminded of the importance and impact of more familiar nonprofits, like Backside Learning Center, Petrino Family Foundation and Muhammad Ali Center. It was a delight to get to know the young honorees who represent these organizations and I know you will enjoy reading their stories of passion and dedication. Through our partnership with Community Foundation of Louisville, we were able to award our New Voices of Philanthropy each with a grant for $1,000 to be used for their respective organizations. I would be remiss if I did not give a printed ovation to our presenting sponsor of this event Delta Dental of Kentucky, an incredibly generous company that Louisville is lucky to claim as our own. Delta Dental has been “making smiles happen” all over this city in highly effective ways, and their belief and support in this program brings an enourmous smile to my face. Thank you. And congratulations to our first ever New Voices of Philanthropy, and their younger counterparts, the Future Voices of Philanthropy. It is my hope that your ability to serve your organization is amplified by a connection that may be made with our readers through this recognition, creating a ripple effect of good that was started by you. May your intelligence and character continue to make an impact on the community we call home.

T
he Voice-Tribune features, follows and photographs Louisville’s nonprofit organizations every week of the year; but this week, we decided to recognize five young professionals between the age of 21 and 35 who are making a difference in creative and inclusive ways. These ambitious individuals use their time, talent and treasure for worthy local organizations and, perhaps most importantly, they use their voices to advocate for those who often are not empowered to do so for themselves. Our call for nominations was met with an enthusiastic response and resulted in the nomination of commendable candidates. In a city as innovative and compassionate as ours, there is no shortage of qualified people hoping to leave the world a better place than how they found it. However, the five honorees chosen display impressive initiative and leadership when it comes to contributing to the organization they represent. As the first ever class of New Voices of Philanthropy they will each receive a $1,000 grant to be given to their chosen nonprofit. They are the voices for established nonprofits of which you are very familiar and for lesser known charitable organizations that are only getting started. In uncovering and honoring these new voices, we are grateful for the partnership and leadership provided by Community

Foundation of Louisville, the largest charitable foundation in Kentucky. The incredible impact their work has on the state is unparalleled, and their efforts on behalf of nonprofits in the Bluegrass assure that organizations like the ones highlighted here can thrive in their desire to provide needed funds and do important work. We are proud to recognize and honor the New Voices of Philanthropy: Ozair Shariff with Muhammad Ali Center, Hannah Rose Neuhauser with Young Authors Greenhouse, Kelsey Petrino Scott with Petrino Family Foundation, Zakiya Lacy with Mahogany Foster and Cathy Shircliff with Backside Learning Center. Keep reading for a bonus feature on our Future Voices of Philanthropy, two young individuals who, though not within the age requirement of 21-35, are worthy of recognition no less. We have no doubt Alex McGrath and Jake Latts will find themselves among these pages to be recognized again in the future as they grow their involvement with the nonprofit community. We salute their exemplary passion for philanthropy at such a young age. It is our hope that these stories open your eyes to the important charities represented, and may the efforts of these young humanitarians inspire you to find your own way to fulfill a need or to contribute to and improve the community around you.

Kelsey Petrino Scott PETRINO FAMILY FOUNDATION
W
Photo by Jacob Zimmer
hen Bobby Petrino returned to University of Louisville football in 2014, his playbook included a charge toward helping the city where he found fame as a coaching powerhouse. He promptly established the Petrino Family Foundation with his elder daughter, Kelsey Petrino-Scott, at the helm as executive director. In just two years, the foundation has paid out to the populace in far more than monetary provisions; rather, this is a concerted endowment to lift up individuals and groups in the community that lifted up and cheered for Petrino. “It started when we all moved back here,” says Kelsey. “My parents had given a donation to the children’s hospital when they were here before to build a new family center for NICU patients. When they came back, they wanted to get involved with the hospital again, but instead of doing a one-time thing, they sat down and came up with the idea of starting a foundation that could do more. A couple months after that, my dad called me and asked what I planned to do with my life. He told me that he had started a foundation and asked me if I would run it for him.” Since that time, Kelsey has taken Petrino Family Foundation to a level they never imagined they could achieve, raising almost a million dollars to benefit the city of Louisville. As the only paid employee, her obligations are numerous and the administrative overhead is kept to a minimum. “I do everything,” she says. “I’m an event planner and an office manager. I do have a lot of great volunteers and board members, including some attorneys to help with the legal side and a CPA. I go out and visit charities, which is probably my favorite part of the job—to find the various organizations that are doing stuff to help affect the community as well as singular families and children, and try to raise funds to pass on.” Petrino Family Foundation is one of the most recognizable charities in the city right now, not because of the famous name it bears, but because of the work of Kelsey. She recently launched the Love Louisville campaign through the foundation aimed to spread love in the city by building alliances, creating pride and inspiring compassion. In addition to the popular tailgate parties that precede every football game and their Annual Spring Classic Golf Tournament, the Foundation will launch a new event in February at Churchill Downs called “A Night of X’s & O’s”—a Valentine-themed dinner that will feature UofL coaches breaking down football for their guests. For information on this and other PFF events, visit petrinofamilyfoundation.org Note: Following our selection of New Voices of Philanthropy, Kelsey Petrino-Scott was admitted to the hospital after exhibiting early labor symptoms. The unexpected emergency delivery of her third child corresponded with the group photo for the honorees and is why Kelsey is not represented on this week’s cover. We are pleased to announce the arrival of Anissa James to Kelsey and the Scott family, and we wish them all the best as Anissa continues to grow in the NICU. Portions of Kelsey’s story are from a previous Voice-Tribune feature on the Petrino Family Foundation written by Kellie Doligale.

O Ozair Shariff MUHAMMAD ALI CENTER
W
hen the Mayor of Louisville specifically asks you as a young professional to get behind and support an organization, chances are, you follow through. Attorney Ozair Shariff did exactly that in 2012 when Mayor Fischer encouraged him to meet with Donald Lassere, the newly appointed President and Chief Executive Officer of Muhammad Ali Center. “I had lunch with Donald and soon afterward he recommended me as a candidate for the Board of Directors at the Ali Center. Membership on distinguished boards in the city was not new territory for Ozair, who serves on the Board of Trustees at Speed Art Museum, the Board of Doctors and Lawyers for Kids, Board of Directors at Pendennis Club and the Community Leadership Council for the Falls of the Ohio. But, as with everything he does in life, Ozair became fully committed to Muhammad Ali Center. He is currently a member of the curation, education and exhibits committee and is the chair of the collection committee. “As you can imagine,” he explains, “following the death of Muhammad Ali in June of last year, there was a sharp uptake in donations at the museum. It is our job to be good stewards of that money. The lifeblood of the organization is the daily programming that takes place there.” This year, Ozair also served on the selection committee for the prestigious Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Awards. “The Ali Center and its mission attract very high caliber nominees. It was an honor to be a part of that early process of selecting the young and phenomenal individuals that correspond with the six core principles that Muhammad Ali made part of his life.” Ozair shares that the easiest example of how the Muhammad Ali Center has impacted others internationally and locally in our community was when it became the epicenter of the global outpouring of support, admiration, sorrow and grief following the death of The Greatest. “It was great to see the diversity of those coming into the Center and paying homage on a daily basis for weeks and months after his passing. It was a very spiritual time for the city.” Ozair acknowledges that although Ali is heralded for his accomplishments in the ring, he will be most remembered for what he accomplished after boxing. “His legacy is his commitment to humanity regardless of race and religion and his message that everyone should be treated with respect.” Ozair says he is awe-inspired each time he is in the Ali Center and hopes to educate the community that it is more than a museum. “There is a lot of great programming for school-age children. I would encourage them to take regular visits to the Ali Center to experience all it has to offer. It really is a jewel for the city. Each time I visit, I am reminded that I can do more to achieve personal greatness.” Ozair grew up in the Louisville area in Southern Indiana and attended Indiana University for both his undergraduate and law degrees. After participating in Teach for America in St. Louis for a few years, he returned to Louisville to practice law at Stites & Harbison, where he practices corporate and healthcare law.

H Hannah Rose Neuhauser YOUNG AUTHORS GREENHOUSE
H
annah Rose Neuhauser believed in the mission of Young Authors Greenhouse so strongly that when she first heard of 826michigan, the nonprofit on which it is based, she walked away from her full-time position as a preschool teacher and hopped in her car to move to Ann Arbor to take an unpaid internship with the organization. Luckily, they were able to offer her a two-year AmeriCorps VISTA position, and thus began her passion for growing the imaginations of students through writing. The original 826michigan was founded by novelist Dave Eggers, who believed that the world would be a better place if there were more teachers and increased opportunity for oneon-one mentorship. When Hannah Rose returned to her hometown of Louisville, she heard of someone locally who was trying to start a similar nonprofit and reached out immediately to be a part of it. With a mission to inspire students ages 6 to 18 from under-resourced communities, Young Authors Greenhouse is a new organization that is growing quickly thanks, in large part, to the volunteer efforts of Hannah Rose. Her passion and commitment run so deep that she even turned down acceptance into graduate school in order to volunteer her time to establish the nonprofit. Hannah Rose shares that there is nothing more rewarding than seeing minds open and pencils move. “We really believe in the transformational power of individual adult attention,” she explains. “We believe that having caring, engaged adults listening and encouraging helps students become motivated to work hard. We believe that writing helps develop habits of the mind such as confidence, persistence and mindfulness. We believe that we all have a story to tell, and it is important to create the space for young people to tell their story and to amplify their voices. It’s not just about becoming a better writer—it’s about becoming a better thinker, a more thoughtful human.” As the volunteer manager of programming and volunteer outreach, her role is to write curriculum for the writing programs; instruct classes of students; recruit volunteers through outreach with universities, other nonprofits and community centers; train and manage volunteers and lead communication on social media. In this role, Hanna Rose dedicates at least 30 hours a week to these efforts. But to this young writer who believes “words are everything,” the rewards are rich. She shares, “I’m proud when I hear a student say they are proud of their work and excited to share it, because honestly, that’s the best ending to any story. And it wouldn’t happen without volunteers, dedicated to sitting with students, validating their ideas and asking, ‘Well, what’s next?’ or saying, ‘You are really thinking like a writer! I’m really impressed.’ Seeing students realize that their voices matter is beautiful.” In her nomination, Hannah Rose was described as “the heart of the organization” for her advocacy to publish an inclusivity statement on the organization’s website and for advancing students’ voices and their need to express their unique opinions as young people. With a program she developed that explores themes of community, culture, place and identity and how these things intersect, she encourages students, many of whom are children of immigrant families, to celebrate their cultures and share the richness of their experiences with others. Hannah Rose encourages the community to get behind Young Authors Greenhouse by volunteering or donating, saying, “Whether it’s helping make origami forest creatures for a day or working with students for a semester, we have lots of different opportunities to make an impact.” A sold out solo acoustic performance by Jim James with special guest Dave Eggers is scheduled at Clifton Center on November 17 to benefit Young Authors Greenhouse.

Z Zakiya Lacy MAHOGANY FOSTER
Z
akiya Lacy is the founder and president of Mahogany Foster, a nonprofit whose mission is to break the barriers of underprivileged youth and bridge the gap to help them become successful adults. Like many in Louisville, Zakiya felt burdened by the increased violence in West Louisville. But unlike most others, she vowed to do something about it. Zakiya’s dream was to establish a community center in the most underserved area of the city, so she started to research the proposition and began by canvassing the streets and questioning the teens she encountered, all the while bracing herself for a wish list she could not fulfill – a pool or a basketball court. She was surprised to discover that the requests were simpler than that – they needed a free lunch program. “I realized we needed more than just a community center,” she recalls. “We needed something that could provide the social life skills that some of us take for granted every day.” Mahogany Foster was established in 2015 with three friends in Zakiya’s living room, and until their fundraising efforts began, was supported through her personal income. “I knew nothing about starting or running a nonprofit, but I had a lot of passion and so I gathered people from different walks of life and developed our board,” she shares. One of the first efforts for Mahogany Foster was a back-to-school kickoff held at 40th and Vermont. “The area was surrounded by condemned businesses and boarded up houses,” Zakiya describes. The goal was to provide a hot meal the day before school and additionally she rallied volunteers to set up hair cutting stations, paint fingernails or provide any service that would make the children feel good about themselves as they embarked upon a new year. “We had such a big turnout that we ran out of paper products, so I went around the corner to a Family Dollar store to restock. I ran into a mom who was standing at the checkout with her child and she had six folders, some deodorant and some paper towels. When she got to the register she didn’t have enough money to pay so she went to put the paper towels back. I was able to tell that mom to put it all back because everything she was getting ready to buy – all necessities – we were providing around the corner for free.” In addition to meal giveaways, and events for underprivileged youth, Mahogany Foster recently acquired a home in the South Louisville Government Center where they provide mentorship consistently to 15 girls ages 10 to 15. “Consistency and stability are important to these girls,” she explains. “I have mentored a 14-year-old heroin addict who was living with her elderly grandmother because her parents were addicted to drugs, and was I able to witness her turn her life over to God.” The mother of three young girls herself, Zakiya credits her daughters as the driving force behind everything she does, and says they also help her stay in tune to the needs of today’s youth. While Mahogany Foster is her full-time passion, she also opened a food truck called Scoops in August that is rooted in a spirit of service, “I’m so passionate about youth that I even tie my business into my nonprofit. I want to give them a chance through Scoops to be job-ready and to teach them essential skills that they can take out into the workforce to pursue their dreams.” Zakiya is currently looking for donations and volunteers for a Thanksgiving dinner to be held November 20 at 1st and Broadway under the overpass and is hard at work planning their first gala to be held in March. You can stay updated on ways to get involved at mahoganyfoster.org.

C Cathy Shircliff BACKSIDE LEARNING CENTER
C
athy Shircliff is one of those people you ask to take the lead when you want to get things done. She has a brain for development, a heart for service and the list of nonprofit organizations for which she has assumed a leadership role could fill a book that might be published by the company she heads, Shircliff Publishing. Yes, she is one of the Kentucky Humane Society’s most active advocates, both as a hands-on volunteer and as an integral part of the success of their fundraiser, Tuxes & Tails Gala. Indeed, you may find her at a Friends of the Zoo Board meeting, Kentucky Derby Museum Gala committee meeting or even helping to plan a fashion show for the Younger Woman’s Club. But, it is her work with the Backside Learning Center that has earned her recognition as one of this year’s New Voices of Philanthropy. “I was potty trained at Churchill Downs,” Cathy laughs when describing her family’s lifelong passion for horses. “I may get lost in a car, but I can get you wherever you want to go at the track and can probably get you there in a freight elevator.” She started volunteering for Backside Learning Center in college. “As somebody who was very interested in speaking Spanish, Latin American people and horses, it seemed like a good fit. After graduation from Georgetown in Washington D.C. and upon obtaining her master’s degree in nonprofit management at UofL, Cathy joined the Board and currently serves as the development resources chair. Cathy cares deeply and sincerely about improving the lives of the track workers at Churchill Downs and likens them to the unsung heroes of other industries. She explains, “The way I describe it is when you think of a movie, everyone applauds the actors, directors and sometimes producers. That is like the horses, jockeys and trainers in racing. You don’t always think about the people who make the movie happen. What about the sound guy and the lighting grip? The people who work on the backside are the ones who are taking care of the horses—walking them, grooming them. They are there every single day taking care of every need of the horses and trainers.” She says the English as a Second Language program is the biggest the Center offers because “it changes the language barrier and gives track workers more access to education and opportunities.” Also of note is the after school program which provides homework assistance to students as well as special family programs for the adults. “These kids go to school like everyone else, but when they come home, it’s difficult for their parents to help with homework if they don’t speak the language.” Cathy continues, “While they are receiving tutoring services, we’ve offered programs from a sun safety course by American Cancer Society to bringing in a chef to give a healthy cooking class. Some just need help with basic social services like translating their phone bill or help with medical needs or basic government services.” This year, Cathy will co-chair the Backside Learning Center’s 11th annual signature fundraiser, Benefit for the Backside: A Day at the Races, formerly known as Ladies Day at the Races. The day of food, fun and racing will take place on Friday, November 17 and will support the Learning Center’s mission to provide educational and social services to the equine workers and families at Churchill Downs.

Jake Latts LOUISVILLE’S GOT TALENT
J
ake Latts started Louisville’s Got Talent for his bar mitzvah project in 2013, and in just four years the spectacular show has raised over $25,000. Jake has been participating in local theater since he was a child, and now as a junior at Kentucky Country Day School, he’s preparing for college and hopes to make a career out of his passion for performing. The annual competition that Jake started raises funds for CenterStage Acting Out, a program that takes live theatrical productions into schools and community centers throughout the region. “I wanted to do something with the arts for my project because that’s a huge part of my life,” he says. “The goal of it is to reach kids through the arts who might not be financially able to experience them otherwise.” The Acting Out troupe is made up of professional actors and theater producers who present high-quality productions for students of all ages. They bring all of their own props, costumes and other essentials to the school, and the plays they perform vary based on the age of their audience. They also lead discussions or “talk backs” after each play and provide activities and lesson plans, all of which comply with Common Core Standards, to go along with their performances. Acting Out gives students the chance to experience theater at no cost and without the need for a field trip or a parent’s permission. The competition that supports these efforts happens in the spring of each year. Jake says his favorite part of the competition is the audition process, which begins this coming year on February 11 from 3 to 6 p.m. Around 100 children audition each year, but the judges have to narrow it down to just 20, a difficult task given how very talented so many of them are. Anyone between the ages of 6 and 18 can try out, and cash prizes are given out to the winners. Awards are given to one contestant age 6-12, one 13-18, one grand prize winner and one people’s choice winner with cash prizes ranging from $100-400. When he’s not managing the competition, Jake keeps a overwhelmingly full schedule. In addition to his school work at KCD, he juggles piano, voice and guitar lessons and regularly participates in theatrical shows around town. He can be seen in the upcoming production of Agatha Christie’s “The Mousetrap” at his school next month. Thankfully he can rely on co-chairs Lenae Price and Anne Ensign-Urteaga and help from Marketing Director Ben Goldenberg to make Louisville’s Got Talent happen. Members of the community who would like to help Jake and the CenterStage team can do so by donating to or sponsoring the event through their website. You can also help by sending any talented children you know to auditions and going to watch the show at CenterStage on March 25.

Alex McGrath THE INVISIBLE WOUND PROJECT
M
ost college freshmen worry exclusively about passing their classes, making friends and adjusting to college life. Alex McGrath and his partners, however, took it upon themselves to start a nonprofit, the Invisible Wound Project, during their freshman year. The organization brings students to the fight against childhood toxic stress through mentorship, advocacy and education. After just one year, they have already made incredible progress and are excited to see their efforts effect change in Louisville. Alex, a dual English and Philosophy major who is minoring in Spanish, met his colleagues Praneeth Goli and Zachary Fowler at UofL freshman orientation in the summer of 2016. They and a few other students arrived late and crossed paths in the parking lot, where they ended up talking and getting situated as roommates for the night. As they got to know one another, they all realized they had a common interest in social entrepreneurship and psychology. After their time together, they eventually had the idea to start a non-profit and began the early planning stages. Initially, the mission of IWP was to create a preventative program to eliminate childhood toxic stress within the city. But since they lacked both the expertise and the platform to do this, they altered their mission to its current state. IWP currently works with Big Brothers Big Sisters to send mentors and mentees on fun outings around the city. They’re still in the pilot phase of this program with just 20 volunteers, but they hope to put a plan in place to triple their impact on childhood toxic stress over the next three years. IWP’s approach to helping the community and solving the problem of childhood toxic stress revolves around involving students in their work. “There’s a clear gap in engagement of college students, specifically within Louisville,” says Alex. “They’re not getting as involved in this landscape as they could, and since they’re the next generation of leaders, we want to cultivate their abilities now in the landscape of childhood toxic stress.” What exactly is childhood toxic stress? Alex describes it as being synonymous with adversity, neglect and abuse, ranging from exposure to alcoholism to divorce and other stressful events. Without adult guidance or intervention, these stressful experiences can have profound impacts on a children’s development and lead them to making problematic decisions. For those who want to learn more about the issue, Alex and his team have done their research. The IWP website has a thorough and clear explanation plus a great deal of analysis of childhood toxic stress. As for Alex’s future plans, he hopes to earn a dual masters in business administration and a master’s degree in public policy. IWP has only been up and running for a year, but Alex and his partners know that the best is yet to come. He recently had the opportunity to participate in the Clinton Global Initiative Conference in Boston, where he presented IWP’s prospective plan and shared their mission with a number of Harvard students and professors. Now, they’re looking forward to sharing it with the local community and gaining the support and interest of Louisvillians. For those who wish to donate or get involved with IWP, visit theiwp.org. VT

Benefit the Backside
B
ackside Learning Center at Churchill Downs is presenting this 11th annual fundraiser on November 17. This is no ordinary day at the track, however, as guests will also enjoy a luncheon and spectacular silent auction. To learn more about this great event and the valuable cause that its proceeds will go toward, we spoke with Backside Learning Center’s Executive Director Sherry Stanley.
BENEFIT THE BACKSIDE: A DAY AT THE RACES Churchill Downs, Millionaires Row 6 Friday, November 17 starting at noon benefitforthebackside.org
Congratulations on 11 successful years of Benefit for the Backside! How has this fundraiser evolved over the years? The event started out as a gathering of jockeys’ wives and other supporters in a one of the jockey suites. After growing in size each year as “Ladies Day at the Races” it was moved to Millionaires Row 6, with attendance at 380 people in 2016. This is our largest annual fundraiser, and this will be our first year as a totally co-ed event, rebranded as “Benefit for the Backside: A Day at the Races.” This year, we expect over 400 guests!
What can guests expect from this year’s Day at the Races? The event will feature a delicious luncheon, watching the day’s races, of course, as well as a large silent auction with many exclusive experiences related to Churchill Downs and horse racing. We will also have a wine pull, bourbon raffle and a photography exhibition of black and white photos taken by 20
Backside Learning Center students which will be for sale at the event - all while supporting services and programs for backside workers who make racing possible!
Why is the Backside Learning Center vital to equine workers and their families as well as the community at large? We provide an array of services and educational programming, available free of charge to the population of 1,000 workers on the backside of Churchill Downs race track as well as their families. Due to the unique demands of working in the industry, it is necessary to offer customized programming that accommodate their schedules and life circumstances. Our goal is to build community and enrich the lives of equine workers and their families at Churchill Downs. There are hundreds of families here who are permanent members of our community, so any support provided to them, such as English classes, homework help, art, music and anything that improves quality of life is going to have positive ripple effects in our entire community.
Where can tickets for this fantastic event be purchased? Tickets can be ordered at benefitforthebackside.org or call us at 502.634.6543 for more information on volunteering, sponsoring or donating to the event. VT 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

hortly after opening CycleBar, the St. Matthews boutique cycling studio in December, my husband, Fred, casually told me, “Pilates is next.” I looked at him and said, “I beg your pardon?” Well, that’s the short version of how the So-Calbased Club Pilates made its Louisville debut in August. After months of due diligence, we felt Louisville was primed for another boutique fitness concept and based on our experience and research, we could tell the timing was perfect for a specialized pilates studio. Personally, we were excited to launch a studio to lengthen and tone our healthy but somewhat flabby bodies. I was healthy but felt “skinny fat.”
A CASE STUDY Fred had taken Pilates classes in his twenties but at the time, he was still fit and strong from playing competitive soccer and tennis. Pilates’ selling point of “injury prevention” or “skeletal alignment” didn’t really resonate with him back then. His preferred training regimen when he wasn’t playing a sport was running. In 2009 at his first (and last) annual Thanksgiving family touch-football game, Fred ruptured his left achilles. A few years later, after numerous physical therapy sessions, he got back out on the tennis court and quickly developed severe tendinitis. These issues flared up regularly but could be managed with a lot of before-and-after stretching, ice and the occasional dry needling session. Could he go 100 percent? No, not even close. Could he regularly enjoy fitness and kicking the soccer ball around with our young children? Yes, but with stiffness and some pain. And Fred is only 40 years old. Club Pilates was finished in August and Fred jumped in as a practice client for our instructors while they tested out the new class formats. I was pleasantly surprised when he kept returning to the studio three to four times
22
weekly. He even surprised himself by saying, “I haven’t moved this well since college.” Pilates was all he wanted to talk about. A game changer. Fred shared specifically what has changed for him in the past eight weeks: Golf • Hitting the ball 10-15 yards farther. • Swing feels smoother, hitting through the ball better. • Range of motion is greater through shoulders and back. • Stiffness and pain? Gone. • Conclusion: easy power. Spin Class • Monitor showed a 10-12% increase in power after 10 consecutive months. • Left calf and ankle stiffness and pain? Gone. • Left knee pain? Gone. • Conclusion: easy power. Why was all of this happening? “A powerful muscle is a flexible muscle; an elongated muscle,” Fred said. “Most people, (myself included until recently) don’t realize how much leg power comes from 1) a strong core, and 2) strong and flexible hips and ankles. On the flip side, people don’t realize how taxing it is on your knees, ankles and the ligaments around them when your hips and ankles are tight and weak. A strong core supports your entire body. When your core is week, you compensate by over using your spine and back muscles.” He added, “The evidence is pretty clear that the degree to which Pilates is helping me build strength and flexibility has a tremendously positive impact on my well-being.” Fred is not alone. Daily, one of the 50 male clients at the Pilates studio will stop by the desk to share, “I can’t tell you how much better I feel playing (fill-in-the-blank) sport or doing (fillin-the-blank) activity.” Pilates just helps men do life easier and more powerfully.

ntil recently, shoppers looking to purchase specific luxury cosmetics products would have to drive to Indianapolis, Cincinnati or Nashville. But now, consumers of Jo Malone London, Tom Ford and La Mer need look no further than Dillard’s at Mall St. Matthews where counters for each of the highly coveted products opened in early October. One could argue that any of those items were always only a click away online, but you’d be missing out on the experience and service that go beyond transactional. Joe Hubrich, luxury business manager of the three brands, says the launch of these products to the Kentucky market will introduce the Louisville shopper, specifically the Dillard’s client, to a new level of luxury living. “When we talk about Jo Malone London, Tom Ford or La Mer, we’re really going beyond the mere ingredients of a product,” Hubrich shares. “We’re talking about creating a feeling within the spirt of a woman or a man.” La Mer is inspired by the oceanic world and heralded by some of the world’s most beautiful people (Jennifer Lopez has publicly claimed to use Crème De La Mer on her entire body). Beyond the famed skin care component, La Mer at Dillard’s offers the entire line of makeup and brushes as well as the full counter experience which boasts six complimentary services. “We are not here to help a customer just pick out a product,” Hubrich assures. “We want to introduce you to a new lifestyle. When you invest in something, there is an expectation of results that it needs to meet for us. The La Mer promise is that in just three days you will notice a difference with any of the products based 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

on what the expert prescribes for your skin condition.” A formula based on fermented nutrient-rich sea kelp, La Mer is also noted for its ethical development practices and “putting back into the world what it takes.” Hubrich elaborates, “Something else that the luxury consumer appreciates about this brand is the artisanal component. Each product is hand crafted, perfectly placed in their container and closed by hand.” Jo Malone London has that same highly personalized nature. “Generosity” is the word Hubrich uses to describe the popular fragrance brand. “It is about the gift of giving,” he explains. “Each customer is creating their own memory. I have clients who layer five to seven fragrances to build their custom scent and it gets more interesting by the number.” Hubrich describes a Jo Malone London fragrance as the final detail and most important style staple. “It completes every outfit,” he clarifies. It’s like aromatherapy because it helps me go into my day feeling more confident.” Body lotions, body oils and shower gels are available to help you deepen your scent, but the key to this brand is to mix and match smells to create your personal playful scent. The enticing and delicious fragrances extend into a home line of candles and diffusers that make perfect holiday gifts for anyone on your list. (Princess Kate burned the orange blossom candle throughout her wedding.) “You’ll be treated to a Vitamin E scrub with a hand and arm massage,” Hubrich describes of the Jo Malone London experience. “Then there is the art of wrapping with this beautiful candy wrapped bow around a box that no one ever wants to throw away. It’s all perfectly packaged in a bag that makes
a statement of itself and creates that same nuanced memory.” Similarly, the Tom Ford counter experience, with signature fragrances and a lipstick line of over 70 colors, is a customized practice. Each fragrance, Hubrich says, is designed
with a particular person in mind. “I start by asking every Tom Ford customer, ‘What statement do you want to make?’ because you cannot avoid making a statement in Tom Ford.” Dalal Brooks has worked in cosmetics at Dillard’s for over 13 years and now, as the cosmetics manager, has seen an evolution of the customer that she believes these luxury brands will address. “The free-gift-with-purchase is old news now,” she says. “Sophisticated shoppers are looking for something beyond clerking to a more pampered, top-of-the-line service. We want to make sure they understand the product and that they have a good experience beyond the purchase.” While all three counters are fully operational now, December 2 will mark the official grand opening of the three luxury brands. A ribbon cutting at 6 p.m. will include champagne and caviar until 8 p.m. Celebrity makeup artists with Tom Ford and skin specialists with La Mer will be on hand for services and consultations while live music and complementary hand and arm massages will be enjoyed at Jo Malone London. It will be an event that fully celebrates luxury in Louisville. VT 27

hosts, witches and creepy crawlers share a home (at least for a few weeks) with glam-to-the-max décor in Rebecca and Paul Cox’s Georgian Revival home. They’re a couple who would be happy if Halloween were a monthly, not merely an annual, holiday. Such Halloween enthusiasts they are, they were married two years ago on October 31. Choosing Halloween for their nuptials wasn’t a surprise to people who knew them well and remembered their first date was for the Zombie Walk, Bardstown Road’s unofficial kick-off to Halloween. “We’re serious when we need to be, but we’re really silly most of the time,” says Rebecca, adding that she and her husband call each other Boo. The nickname isn’t seasonal. They’re Boos all year. The Coxes, who own TheraPlace, a pediatric out-patient therapy clinic, dress their house in high Halloween style. Orange and brown, two of the most popular colors for Halloween, have added significance to Paul. They are the colors of DeSales High School, where he was a student and where the Paul B. Cox Stadium is named after him. “A little Halloween is sprinkled everywhere in the house,” says Rebecca. “People give me Halloween decorations for my birthday, which is October 15, and I have been collecting them for years so I just want to display all of them.” Neighborhood children can’t resist trick or treating at the Cox’s, where the outside of the home is spooked out with zombies, a tombstone, skulls staked in the ground and a ghost. The younger ones are often startled when they come upon the display and need to be reassured that it’s a faux tableau… hmm, or is it? Any fears they have are allayed when Rebecca and Paul, sometimes outfitted in jack-o-lantern sweatshirts and funny hats, hand out Halloween treats. Paul had owned the house a few years before he and Rebecca were married and undertook an extensive interior design project with Barry Wooley and Jacqui Smith of Barry Wooley Designs. The design team fused luxuriousness with casual comfort, a combination that provides an intriguing canvas for any holiday décor, particularly that of Halloween. 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

“This is the most glamorous room,” says Rebecca about the “front room” that has a Cartier-wallpapered ceiling, a stunning centerpiece of an overhead light fixture and wall lights that are works of art above two gold chests. Small changes easily announce each season. Orange and red sequined pillows and a copper throw state that fall has arrived. Not usually a flamboyant person, Rebecca unveils humorous flamboyance with her fireplace mantel Halloween decorations. A mere glance isn’t enough to take in all the details such as a black candelabra with white candles that drip “blood” when they burn. A shiny skull, an owl, a ghost, cobwebs and sparkly mini black, white and orange pumpkins whisper “look at me next” even though you haven’t had your fill of orange and black leaves in a gold vase, a vampire blood bottle with fangs, a creepy bride and groom and a spider that hangs over the edge of the mantel. “It’s Halloween on steroids, but very tasteful,” Rebecca laughs with a slight hint of wickedness. 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

A ghost sits behind the desk in the home office that was converted from a dining room. Pick up the handle of the old-fashion phone to hear a spine-tingling voice say, “Look behind you. I’m coming for you.” When Rebecca reluctantly puts away the Halloween decorations, a Persian rug regains its rightful place as a focal piece. “It was one of our first purchases. Every time I look at it I see new colors,” she says. Its blend of colors is complemented by any season’s accouterments, including the autumnal floral arrangements that remain through Thanksgiving. Halloween was waiting to happen in the kitchen, where
there are orange elements, such as a bowl and rug. To the bowl, Rebecca added a skull that sings and moves. Next to it are black ghosts, orange candles, a bat and a cobweb table runner. Nearby are spider plates that were wedding gifts, black Waterford crystal Champagne wedding flutes, skull barware and skeleton glasses. No room in the house is off limits to family and friends, but the family room has its own magnetism, with a gray color scheme that pops with color and mixed metals. “We pushed the boundaries with color,” says Jacqui, singling out a peacock blue ottoman. That boundary leap was a major deviation for Paul, who Rebecca calls the

“Tan Man” for his usual gravitation to what he clearly considers a range of tan. “Rebecca and Paul are the fun ones, the hostess and host of the year,” adds Jacqui. “So, we designed the room to have an abundance of seating and fabrics that hold up and wear well.” Rare would be the guest who doesn’t remark on the organic, antique brass chandelier with tumbled quartz accents or the vintage French poster the Coxes purchased in Key West, where they often visit and own rental property. Placed on the room’s Mid-Century credenza is a pumpkin bedecked with a witch’s hat, a crow, a gourd for a nose, pheasant feathers and a centipede. Even when Halloween decorations are hidden away until the next year, the Coxes celebrate when they sit on the sofa and look through a book of photographs from their Halloween-themed wedding reception at the Henry Clay. It was an affair of ingenious creativity and elegant bewitchment, with fit-for-Hollywood red lighting and dazzling embellishments. Guests were invited to come in costume or choose one of the many that were provided at four Halloween stations. On display in the front room is a photograph of Paul and his nephew dressed as zombies. Written on the frame are the words, “Memories fill our heart with happiness.” The irony of those words next to the photograph isn’t easy to ignore, but they have another level of meaning to Rebecca, who says of her husband and her marriage, “Our chemistry and personalities mesh so well. Seriously, Paul makes my heart happy.” VT

Moore is Huge Key to Trinity’s Success
T
he Trinity Shamrocks have not lost a game since November 20, 2015. In nearly two years, the team has run the table and is in position to win back-toback state championships. It has been pure dominance to say the least, winning 25 straight games, and not letting the foot off the gas one bit. During their winning streak, Trinity has averaged 34.7 points a game while only allowing 8.5 points to Rondale Moore their opponents, including 11 shut out victories. It is as though the Shamrocks are the high school version of the NFL’s defending Superbowl champs New England Patriots and Coach Bob Beatty is a mastermind sharing similarities to Patriots’ Coach Bill Belichick. It is clear that Trinity is sitting on the football throne in the state of Kentucky. Opponents have bowed down to them in their majesty and they’re not getting lackadaisical as the kings of high school football. A huge key to their success this season has been senior wide receiver Rondale Moore. He likens his game to Antonio Brown of the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 5-foot-9, 174-pound speedy receiver - who runs a 40-yard dash in 4.33 seconds - might be right on. “Stature, speed and IQ and the way we play the game,” Moore says. “Whether that be taking punts or lining up to get linebackers one-on-one with you. So I think he is a very comparable pelayer.” Moore committed to Texas over the summer, but has made sure he leaves his mark as a Shamrock before he becomes a Longhorn. This season he has 72 receptions, 901 yards and 7 touchdowns. He has been Trinity’s greatest offensive weapon by far. When asked about the role he plays on the team, he says, “It goes deeper than just football. I am like a big brother to the younger guys and they look up to me for support when we’re down.”

Rondale was a transfer student from New Albany High School going into his junior year, but it didn’t take him long to become the big name on campus come his senior year. But Coach Beatty has helped him to “stay grounded” he says. When offered scholarships from schools like Louisville, Kentucky, Ohio State, Ole Miss and Penn State, it can be easy to get distracted. “When I came in, I had a few offers and then my recruitment blew up,” Moore adds. “But not one time do I recall Coach ever speaking about it or letting me off the hook because of that. He has always been a very tough guy and made sure I was grounded in my play.” In his two years at Trinity, Moore says Coach Beatty built his confidence, but he still wants to increase his football IQ as he gets ready for college. “The coaches and I will be speaking about that as soon as the season is over,” he explains. “I want to learn everything I can, like the nature of the game and how to improve in my blocking. I feel like that can set me apart.” When he is not on the field, he can often be found watching film of other players and scouting reports in order to learn as much as possible. In doing so, Moore has already built a strong bond with his future coach, Tom Herman. “Coach Herman watches football all the time, so if I’m watching football or have a question I can always call him or ask him or my trainer and my family because they all know football,” Moore says. There is a bright road ahead for this gifted young man, but he has one last task in front of him: going out as a state champion. When it is all said and done, he wants others to know, “Football doesn’t define me, so I don’t want to be remembered as a good football player. I want to be looked at as someone who gave back to my community whether that be through service hours, helping kids with homework or becoming a state champion with my teammates.” VT 31

The Speed’s Art Detectives Brings Exploration to the Classroom Story and photos by Remy Sisk
A
lthough museum field trips are nearly integral to elementary education, the Speed Art Museum is doing things a little bit differently by reversing the model and bringing art into schools. Through the Art Detectives program, students in the Kentuckiana area get to experience the wonder of the Speed’s immense collection inside their very own classrooms. Art Detectives first began in 2013 when the museum closed for renovation “as a way to stay engaged with the community and specifically with schools in the area,” recounts Speed Art Museum Teaching Programs Coordinator Amber Thieneman. “So they curated these crates based on what was in the education collection and started going out to schools, and then it’s continued ever since.” Thieneman works with schools to schedule times when two teaching fellows can come into the classroom and lead sessions of exploration. Schools can choose from six different crates. “We have culture-specific crates like Discover Africa, Discover Europe, Discover Kentucky and Discover Native American Cultures,” she explained at a recent visit to a classroom. “And then the crate that they’re seeing today is Who We Are and What We Make, and we also have a STEAM crate, which is science, technology, engineering, art and math – that one’s new this year.” The teaching fellows work with the students as they are broken into small groups and exam-
32
ine different pieces from within the crates. The students consider such questions as what the object is made of and why it was made while they closely study the artwork they’re holding in their hands. This process fulfills Art Detectives’ central goal of developing three skills within the students: observation, collaboration and problem solving. “I love being able to get in the classroom and see the effect that it has on students and the questions that they ask,” Thieneman exudes, “and also to see them explore the works and be able to hold things in their hands that they might not have the opportunity to do in the museum. I think it’s very important because it is a hands-on program and it opens that door while exploring works of art and being able to see things differently. And hopefully, it also encourages students to come visit the museum.” Thieneman looks forward to developing new crates and building upon existing ones while also strengthening the Speed’s relationship with area schools and the greater community. Literally putting art in the hands of children creates a learning and exploring process unlike any other and allows children an unparalleled – and educationally significant – opportunity. “I think it opens up a door for them to see other cultures and be exposed to things that they may not be exposed to in their community,” she maintains, “and also allows and encourages them to ask questions so that it then opens their minds to all of these new things.” VT 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

If you’ve been contemplating trying something new or are simply looking for a more interesting way to fill your time than watching Netflix, we may have your answer. This week, we’ve compiled five great resources around town that can help you expand your horizons and keep your mind sharp.

t this point in the school year, the only thing kids are thinking about is how many days are left until Christmas break. Instead of letting them retreat to their rooms to space out, give your little rascals something to look forward to with these easy and fun cereal bars. Since the majority of the work is measuring and stirring, let them help you out in the kitchen and use the afternoon as a learning experience for the both of you. This way, you get the bonding time that you desire, and they get a scrumptious after-school snack. 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Glass Magic By Carla Sue Broecker Photos courtesy of Centre College
T
here are only a few world renowned living glass-blowing artists and the last week in October, two of them, Stephen Rolfe Powell and Lino Tagliapietra held a spectacular demonstration of their art at Centre College in Danville. With students and admirers perched on benches and stools or standing on tiptoes to get a better view, they gathered in the Corning Corhart Phillips Lighting Hot Glass Studio on Centre’s campus. Powell has a national, if not world-wide reputation for his work. Born in Birmingham, Alabama he received his B.A. in painting and ceramics at Centre and earned an MFA in Ceramics at LSU. He first experienced glass blowing while at LSU. In 1983 he joined Centre’s faculty to teach ceramics and sculpture. Over the next ten years, he built a glass studio and founded Centre’s glass program as well as designed a state-of-the-art studio as part of Centre’s new Visual Arts Center in 1998. Born in 1934 on the island of Murano, Italy, Lino Tagliapietra became a master glass blower in his early 20s and was granted that title in the 1950s. He worked for many prestigious glass companies until the 1990s when he became a free practicing artist of glass. His work is prominently featured in the world’s leading museums including the De Young Museum of San Francisco, the Victoria and Albert in London and the Metropolitan Museum of New York, as well as numerous galleries and private collections. His relationship with Centre College is unique, and his visit this past week represents his sixth time spent with Stephen Powell and his students and admirers. In 2000, Lino served as a Humana Distinguished Professor at Centre. The PBS documentary “Lino Tagliapietra: Maestro of Glass” was produced by Stephen Powell and filmed on campus. At Centre’s 2004 commencement Lino received an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters along with Sandra Day O’Connor. David and Pam Ray invited husband Brad and me to accompany them to Danville for the last of four
Lino demonstrations on a very cold Sunday morning. We met at the Rays’ farm in Simpsonville and took the trip with David at the wheel. Perhaps not known, the Ray family’s business is Carl Ray Nursery and they have been responsible for planting some wonderful trees on Centre’s beautiful campus. Armed with heavy jackets, gloves and even earmuffs, we were lucky enough to find seats on the aluminum bleachers facing five red-hot furnaces that heated the glass, but not the audience. The garage-like doors on both sides of the studio were wide open with a considerable breeze so the audience was happy to have dressed warmly for the occasion. With no fanfare at all, Lino and Stephen along with many of Lino’s staff from Italy and Stephen’s staff and students entered the room and began the creation of a wonderful piece. A little nub of glass began to grow with many firings and additions of pieces of colored glass. It is impossible to explain all of the working of this process. You have to have been there. The saddest part of all was when it was finished it was grabbed up by Stephen’s huge “oven mittens” and swept off so fast to a cooling oven to temper it for a number of days, we didn’t get a picture of the finished product. Lacking proof of what we saw, take my word, it was a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime experience. VT

Business Briefs To submit your business brief email circulation@redpinmedia.com YEW DELL BOTANICAL GARDENS RECEIVES $4 MILLION ANONYMOUS GIFT Yew Dell Botanical Gardens is excited to announce that the organization has recently received a $4 million anonymous gift. The funds are earmarked to support Yew Dell’s ongoing mission of promoting sustainable gardening and landscape planting in the region. “This gift will allow Yew Dell to identify new and more sustainable plants, hire staff and build a commercial nursery operation,” explained Executive Director Paul Cappiello. “The commercial nursery operation will allow us to introduce the best plants from our breeding and evaluation work into the market and help us develop an ongoing revenue stream to support Yew Dell’s research, conservation and education work,” he added. An important part of the goal of the planned commercial operation is to reduce the negative impacts of exotic invasive plant species, provide excellent ornamental plants for regional gardens and landscapes and to promote plants that require fewer external inputs such as fertilizer and pesticides. A portion of the gift will provide $500,000 for infrastructure work to build the facilities needed for propagation and production of superior landscape and garden plants. The remaining funds will go into Yew Dell’s endowment to provide funds for staff and operating needs for the developing nursery. Yew Dell Botanical Gardens was established in 2002. In the past 15 years Yew Dell has raised approximately $20 million (not including this most recent $4 million gift) to acquire the former Theodore Klein Nursery property and develop it into a 60-acre botanical garden. In that time, thousands of plants have been collected and evaluated from across Kentucky and around the world. Yew Dell has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places, was listed by Horticulture Magazine as one of the Top 10 Destinations Gardens in the U.S. and three of Yew Dell’s capital construction projects have garnered highest design honors from the American Institute of Architects. WOODFORD RESERVE PARTNERS WITH CHURCHILL DOWNS TO BECOME NEW PRESENTING SPONSOR OF THE KENTUCKY DERBY Churchill Downs Incorporated and Brown-Forman Corporation recently announced a five-year agreement through which Brown-Forman’s Woodford Reserve bourbon will be the presenting sponsor of the Kentucky Derby. Beginning with its 144th running on Saturday, May 5, 2018 at Churchill Downs Racetrack, the $2 million classic race for 3-year-old Thoroughbreds and one of America’s premier sports and entertainment events will be known as the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve. America’s oldest continuously-held sports event with a history that dates to 1875, the Kentucky Derby will be nationally televised by NBC Sports. Terms of the presenting sponsor agreement between Churchill Downs and Brown-Forman were not released. The Kentucky Derby presenting partnership strengthens long-standing ties between a pair of institutions with strong international brands and deep roots in their home city. The corporate headquarters of both CDI and Brown-Forman are located in Louisville and their respective histories share similar historic timelines as each was founded in Louisville only a few years apart. Brown-Forman traces its history in the city to its founding in 1870, while the first Kentucky Derby was the highlight of the inaugural racing meet in 1875 at the Louisville Jockey Club, the racetrack that later became known as Churchill Downs. “Brown-Forman has been an incredible partner of our company for more than 30 years and it is extremely gratifying to expand our relationship with this agreement to

establish its Woodford Reserve bourbon as the presenting sponsor of the Kentucky Derby,” said Bill Carstanjen, Chief Executive Officer of CDI. “Our companies share Kentucky as their birthplace and each has developed brands that have achieved international success and earned reputations for excellence. The Kentucky Derby and Churchill Downs have recorded significant growth in recent years and we’re confident that the expansion of our ongoing partnership with Brown-Forman is an important step in the continued growth of the Kentucky Derby as a premier international entertainment event.” “We are thrilled to be making this announcement and look forward to furthering our relationship with the Kentucky Derby and Churchill Downs,” said Paul Varga, BrownForman, Chief Executive Officer. “The Kentucky Derby is a legendary horse race with a premier sports experience and we believe putting together two of Kentucky’s finest – Woodford Reserve and the Kentucky Derby – is a natural fit. We couldn’t be more excited to be an integral part of the celebration that is the Kentucky Derby.” The business relationship between Brown-Forman and Churchill Downs has a history of more than three decades and has included several partnerships. Woodford Reserve has been the “Official Bourbon of the Kentucky Derby” since 1999 and also becomes the presenting sponsor of the Road to the Kentucky Derby, the points series of 35 designated prep races that determines the participants in the maximum field of 20 horses that will compete in each year’s race. In announcing Brown-Forman’s new role as the presenting sponsor of the Kentucky Derby, Carstanjen thanked CDI’s outgoing Kentucky Derby presenting sponsor for its partnership efforts.

“The creation of a presenting sponsor was an important step in the ongoing growth of the Kentucky Derby, and we deeply appreciate the support of Yum! Brands for more than a decade in that groundbreaking role,” Carstanjen said. “We’re proud to have been the first-ever presenting sponsor of the ‘greatest two minutes in sports’ for more than a decade and have the greatest respect for Churchill Downs,” said Greg Creed, Chief Executive Officer of Yum! Brands. “The initial focus of our sponsorship in 2006 was to leverage the Kentucky Derby’s global TV audience to build awareness with individual investors who knew our wellknown restaurant brands but not Yum!. Since then, Yum!’s visibility has grown significantly and we’ve shifted our marketing focus to our brands. We’re pleased to pass the torch to Brown-Forman, another Louisville original.” LOUISVILLE WOMEN’S TENNIS TEAM CROWNED NATIONAL CO-CHAMPIONS AT USTA LEAGUE ADULT 40 & OVER 4.5+ NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS The women’s tennis team from Louisville representing the USTA Southern Section was declared co-champions along with a team from Tampa, Florida at the USTA League 40 and over 4.5 + Women’s National Championships held at the Mobile Tennis Center in Mobile, Alabama.

Katy Christopherson
CHRISTOPHERSON, KATY Katy Christopherson, 96, passed away on October 23, 2017 after thoroughly enjoying and making use of almost every minute of her 96 trips around the sun. She was preceded in death by her husband of 74 years, William M. Christopherson, and her parents Rosie and Pat Donley. Katy was born on July 8, 1921 in Hiram, Ohio where she attended Hiram College 22 years after her parents completed their academic training there. Given the Depression, Katy took her first job offer as the librarian at City Hospital of Akron, Ohio. Fortunately, they maintained a basic collection of medical texts and journals and there she met Dr. Christopherson (Chris), an intern who still managed to spend a lot of time in the library chatting up the librarian. They married and while Chris served as a Battalion surgeon in the European Theatre of War, Katy worked at the Akron War Housing Office, then the U.S. Navy Offices of Goodyear Aircraft. After the war while Chris returned for a two-year residency, Katy worked in the Business & Labor Division of the Akron Public Library University. In 1948, Chris joined the Department of Pathology of Louisville’s School of Medicine and Katy plunged into the League of Women Voters, where she served as president of the Louisville League
(1958-1960) and the Kentucky League (1960-1962). In 1964, she became a director of the League of Women Voters of the United States and served as first vice president from 1966-1975. Simultaneously, she served as secretary of the League’s Education Fund (19641966) and then as a trustee until 1970. Katy was also trustee of the League of Women Voters Overseas Education Fund from 1964 to 1968, a director from 1968 to 1970 and finally president from 1970-1976. She thoroughly enjoyed her work with the fund as she focused on helping women (particularly in Latin America) organize themselves to solve their problems and overcome barriers to their full participation in the social, political and economic lives of their societies. Katy’s governmental interests resulted in a variety of assignments from 1956-60; the Health & Welfare Council’s (Secretary), Louisville Geriatric Center (President), Citizens Advocate Center (Director), Citizens Metropolitan Planning Council (Director), Overseas Development Council (Director), and as a Member of the National Committee on U.S. China Relation where she served as a director from 1971 to 2012 and served as board secretary and chairman of membership from 1973 to 2007. During her tenure with the Committee she was instrumental in helping to arrange President Richard Nixon’s breakthrough diplomatic trip to China. Separately, at the request of the governor, Katy worked on the Campaign Funding Advisory Committee which resulted in the state’s office supervising campaign finance. In 1970, she served on a Jefferson County Improvement Committee focusing on ethics in local government. At the logical end of her civic career, Katy’ interests turned to quilt making and as was her way, served on the Board of the Organization of Louisville Nimble Thimbles and of the Kentucky Heritage Quilt Society. As a Director of the National Quilting Association, Katy was responsible for the quilt judge’s certification program.

From this long list of accomplishments, honors and activities (which we parred down!), it is obvious that Katy loved life and people loved Katy. Besides her superior intellect, Katy was also known for her non-judgmental nature; her passion for recycling; her love of flowers (orchids in particular); her one woman mission to keep the post office in business by refusing to adopt email; sending newspaper clippings to all her loved ones on subjects she knew they would find of interest; her love of Christmas and giving gifts and most of all for her love for her son, Walter, his wife Catherine and her precious grandchildren, Emma and Will (who lovingly referred to her as Bemama which she later figured out meant Big Mama); her sons from other mothers, Robin Muir and Richard Hopkins, and her best friend, Monica Orr. Visitation was held from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday at her son’s residence. Finally, she was so very thankful for the care and love of all the staff at Treyton Oak Towers requesting that in lieu of flowers remembrances can be made to the Treyton Oak Employees Christmas fund. As she remarked recently, her headstone should read that “She left unfinished.”
RINEHART, ANN SMITH Ann Smith Rinehart, 99, passed away peacefully on October 24, 2017 at the Episcopal Church Home in Louisville. She was preceded in death by her parents Azzie, Easterling Kemp and James Smith, and by the love of her life, Hudson B. Rinehart. Ann was born on November 21, 1917 in Carriere, Mississippi, then moved to and was raised in Bogalusa, Louisiana. She graduated from The Elizabeth Sullivan Memorial School of Nursing. She served our country as an Army Lieutenant where she met Lieutenant Hudson Rinehart in basic training. Ann served as a hospital nurse during World War II in the South Pacific in New Guinea and the Philippines. She also worked
for many years at Norton Hospital as a Licensed Social Worker. Ann belonged to Owl Creek Country Club and was an avid golfer, a founding member of St. Mark United Methodist Church, a founding member of the Compass Club and a member of PEO.
Ann Smith Rinehart
Left to cherish her memory are her children, Betty Radmacher, Barbara Plenge (Steve) and Diane Book; grandchildren, Kelly Pugh (Tom), Kara Smart (John), Kent Plenge, Sarah Banta (Robert), B. Frank Radmacher IV, Rachael Ward (Matt) and Peter Book; great-grandchildren, Andrew and Grace Smart, Elizabeth Pugh and Hayden, Brynn and Sloane Banta. Ann led by example by being a great wife, mother and by working outside of the home. She loved her family, friends, golf, baking, gardening and having fun! Her faith was a big part of her life, and she lived by it every day. The family would like to express their gratitude to the staff of the Episcopal Church Home for their exemplary care and kindness. The funeral service was held Saturday, October 28 at 1 p.m. at St. Mark United Methodist Church, 4611 Lowe Road. A private graveside service was held. In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy may be made in Ann’s honor to the Episcopal Church Home, St. Mark United Methodist Church or the PEO Educational Fund. 1 1 . 0 2 . 2 0 1 7 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

pets of the week Meet Taylor, a bright-eyed tortoiseshell cat looking for a new family. Taylor recently experienced some stressful situations at home, lost half her body weight and had a reaction to fleas that affected her skin and caused her hair to thin drastically. The vets at KHS are confident that her fur will grow back, but it may take some time and - most importantly - will require lots of love. Taylor is as affectionate as ever and is always ready for a well-deserved head rub or back scratch. Her previous owner said that Taylor does well with other felines and is generally a social cat. Taylor is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on shots. Meet her today at the Hikes Point Feeders Supply, 3079 Breckenridge Lane. Meet Heidi! A petite, nine-year-old Dachshund mix with a zest for life. Heidi’s previous owners could no longer care for her, and now she’s on the lookout for a family she can spend the rest of her days with. Heidi may be nine-years-old, but this active girl loves taking long walks, playing with her squeaky toys, and training with her staff friends at the shelter. One thing the staff has been working on with her since her return is getting her reacquainted with men. Heidi has learned so much since her arrival at KHS, so we have no doubt this is something she could overcome with time. She knows how to sit, stay and will even come when you call for her. The only thing she can’t seem to do is make friends with the other dogs. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a loving and intelligent nature, please come visit Heidi today. Heidi is spayed, micro-chipped and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Come meet Heidi today at the Pewee Valley Feeders Supply, 12406 La Grange Road. For more on Heidi or any of our adoptable pets, please call 502-366-3355 or visit kyhumane.org.
