hen responding to a fire, every second matters. Fires can double in size every 30 seconds, making a quick, efficient response imperative to keeping residents safe and limiting property damage. Facility managers are not always available during an incident, and the fire’s site may contain limited roadway access, blocked entries, or additional security measures, which can increase response time and pose significant dangers to first responders. To assist firefighters and better protect residents and businesses, Goodyear is utilizing field-based geospatial information systems (GIS) data collection. “Picture in the middle of the night, we get a call out to a commercial structure, and we have a fire happening,” said Bryan
Duell, Goodyear Fire Department battalion chief. “With GIS, we’re able to identify all the different attributes that we need to for firefighter safety and fire protection, and for the safety of the customers and the business. “We’re able to access that information, and see it like we’ve been there before, even if we haven’t. It’s all standard information that we would utilize in the Valley with our brothers and sisters responding there from any city that comes into our town.” GIS mapping enables all emergency response personnel to digitally capture location information using Esri ArcGIS Field Maps, collect and update preincident plans in real time, and deploy them digitally within the emergency response vehicles that are shared among responders in var-

This helps save time and reduces data entry redundancy, and provides a common operating picture across West Valley safety organizations. This preplanning allows public safety departments to work smarter and establish consistency that increases situational awareness, reduces errors and sets expectations for all responders. Preplanning also helps public safety personnel develop a better understanding of the community, including its strengths and challenges. It assists with the creation of community outreach plans and develops more accurate training exercises. GIS mapping information is also shared with other departments in Goodyear, including the Goodyear Police Department.
Prior to deploying a map-based, field data collection system, preplans were hand-drawn and then digitally recreated over a period of many years, with some degree of standardization and completeness. This information was then printed on a map and carried in binders within the emergency response vehicles. A complete digital collection of site characterizations includes the location of utility shutoffs; access to buildings, gates, fences, hydrants and water supply; exterior wall construction, occupancy type; roof construction; details on ceilings, attics and basements; interior configuration and storage; fire protection systems; hazardous chemicals; and environmental constraints. Goodyear already has GIS mapping in place for 70% of all commercial structures in the city, with the ultimate goal of 100%. “We’re proud to be leading the way in keeping our residents, business own-
ers and firefighters safe,” Duell said. “The information is captured and currently being uploaded into the Phoenix system where we prioritize those with the highest risk first and to the medium and then to the low-risk occupancies. And this is an ongoing process as everybody has been growing so much. We have new buildings, new firefighters, new attributes, all those things can be updated in real time, and they can be brought back into the system for anybody who’s responding, they’ll have the most up to date information for the city of Goodyear.” In the next 12 months, Goodyear plans to train all public safety personnel in the use of field-based GIS application to collect additional preincident information for all 90 highrisk locations and 55 medium-risk locations in the city, and update the digital maps available in emergency response vehicles through the Metro 911 system.

Carbon monoxide can be a silent killer this winter
N
BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF
ow that winter has officially arrived and overnight lows mean switching the thermostat to the heat setting, emergency department doctors at Abrazo Health hospitals say it’s a good time to keep a few household safety tips in mind. Carbon monoxide and space heaters are two culprits of home heating-related emergencies, according to Dr. Brian Hess, medical director of emergency services at Abrazo Health hospitals. Carbon monoxide poisoning, often from improper home heating, sends as many as 20,000 people a year to the emergency room in the United States. Installing a carbon monoxide detector can warn you if dangerous levels of the gas are in your home, he said. Batteries should be changed twice a year, a good rule of thumb is replace them the same time as your smoke detector batteries. Carbon monoxide poisoning happens because the gas is invisible and odorless. As you breathe the fumes, the gas begins to build up in your body and can cause sudden illness or death. The most common symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting, chest pain and confusion. While everyone is at risk, some are more sensitive than others, such as infants and the elderly. People with heart disease, breathing problems or anemia are also more susceptible to carbon monoxide sickness. Here are some ways you can stay safe and warm this winter:
Use proper ventilation BESTOF

Gas ranges, ovens and kerosene heaters that are not properly ventilated can leak carbon monoxide into your home. For example, appliances such as water heaters, should vent in an upward direction to the outside of the house. And if you smell an odor from a gas appliance, it may be leaking carbon monoxide.
Make safe heating decisions Only buy gas equipment that has the seal of a national testing agency, such as Underwriters’ Laboratories (UL). The following are tips to keep in mind
Dr. Brian Hess, medical director of emergency services at Abrazo Health hospitals. (Photo courtesy of Abrazo Health)
for heating and cooking: • Don’t use a gas range or oven to heat your house. • Charcoal or hibachi grills, lanterns and portable camping stoves are not appropriate for inside use. • Never use a generator inside your home, basement, garage or carport. • Make sure your fireplace flue and chimney are properly connected, in good working order and are not blocked. Blockage can cause carbon monoxide to build up in your home. • Perform a seasonal check on all gas appliances to make sure that they are in good working order.
Remember car and truck safety Never idle your car or truck in the garage with the door closed, and if the garage is attached to the house, don’t idle even with the garage door open. It’s a good idea to have the exhaust system checked each year to make sure that carbon monoxide doesn’t leak into your car.
Suspect carbon monoxide poisoning? Carbon monoxide can be fatal without prompt treatment. If you suspect someone has carbon monoxide poisoning, call 911. You also should open the doors and windows to provide fresh air to the area. Turn off any heaters, gas ranges or other combustion appliances and leave the home.

Litchfield Park solves, reduces crime with Flock Safety
BY LAUREN SERRATO
West Valley View Staff Writer
L
itchfield Park is seeing success in preventing and solving crime by deploying Flock Safety Automated License Plate Reading cameras across the city. Flock Safety’s technology is utilized in more than 1,500 cities across the country to help communities and law enforcement reduce crime by up to 70%. “We are a technology company that builds hardware and writes software for neighborhoods, businesses and law enforcement to capture the objective evidence needed to investigate and ultimately solve crime,” said Josh Thomas, Flock vice president of marketing. “We actually manufacture the hardware ourselves, we build cameras and audio detection devices. We have machine learning engineers that interpret all of the evidence, and then we deliver it to the right person at the right time. So, whether it’s a patrol officer in their vehicle, or their cellphones, or if it’s a
neighborhood that needs to download footage and give it to a detective or if it’s a city councilmember who wants to audit everything and see how this system is being used and what are the searches that are being performed in their jurisdiction. We have built the software behind all the hardware as well.” Litchfield Park installed more than 30 Flock Safety ALPR cameras for proactive and reactive crime fighting. The ALPR network delivers Hot List alerts, a real-time notification that a vehicle associated with a wanted suspect in a state or national crime database has passed a camera. Hot List alerts also help law enforcement locate missing persons in cases of Amber and Silver alerts. “Our mission is to eliminate crime,” Thomas said. “It’s going to take a lot of work to get there, but that is our North Star. We want to increase the clearance rate to 100% and therefore reduce the overall crime rate. That is our ultimate goal here.”

The Avondale Police Department, which Litchfield Park contracts with to provide law enforcement services, have received over 70 Hot List alerts from the Flock system since July. The Flock Safety cameras have helped Avondale Police Department’s Litchfield Park Patrol Team identify an armed robbery suspect vehicle, locate missing persons and recover stolen license plates. “The Flock Safety system has been a tremendous asset to our Litchfield Park patrol team by helping iden- Flock Safety’s technology is utilized in over 1,500 cities tify wanted vehicles, thus across the country, including Litchfield Park, to help helping keep our Litchfield communities and law enforcement reduce crime by up Park community safer,” said to 70%.

And half of violent crimes go unsolved. No. 1 reason why all these crimes go unsolved is not because people don’t care and aren’t trying, it’s because they don’t have evidence. So, this works. We are solving a couple hundred crimes literally every single day around the country.”

BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF
ith locations in Goodyear, Glendale and Sun City West, FirstBank has shown double-digit growth in assets, deposits and income in the third quarter over totals from the same period last year. Across FirstBank’s Arizona branches, assets grew by 14.3% from $975.9 million to $1.1 billion compared to the same period last year. Arizona loans increased by 15.7% from $925.1 million to $1.1 billion, and deposits increased by 41.5%, also surpassing the $1 billion mark. “FirstBank in Arizona delivered a strong performance during the third quarter, and I am grateful to our customers, employees, and community members who have continued to show us trust during this growth,” said Humphrey Shin, FirstBank Phoenix Market president. “Maintaining that trust and commitment will continue to be a motivating factor for us as we look to finish the year strong.” This quarter, FirstBank officials said its nonprofit, One Tree Planted, result-
ed in 50,000 trees planted across Arizona, Colorado and California between June 1 and Aug. 31. They planted trees for every FirstBank Bloom Package opened. Additionally, FirstBank strengthened its relationship with the Phoenix Mercury by presenting a $5,000 scholarship, with the help of Sophie Cunningham, to a local student for college education. FirstBank’s assets across all markets at the end of September grew to $27.4 billion, up 16.3% from the same period in 2020, and total deposits jumped to $25.1 billion, exceeding last year’s third-quarter deposits by an even 20%. Net income grew by 29.6% year-overyear to $222.5 million, while net loans grew 4.4% year-over-year to $13.5 billion. “Banking for good isn’t just a slogan for us, it’s a sincere motivation,” said FirstBank CEO Jim Reuter. “We’ve been pleased to help our community navigate the turbulence of the pandemic and look forward to coming out the other side stronger than before.”

It’s easy to see the damage to your car after an accident, but the damage to your body may remain hidden. As a doctor who has treated 100’s of whiplash patients I can tell you that whiplash-pain is different from other types of neck pain. After a whiplash injury, many patients develop long lasting pain that often spreads throughout their body; a condition called Chronic Widespread Pain Syndrome. Research shows nearly 1 out of 2 patients respond poorly to treatment of chronic widespread pain, post-whiplash, resulting in lifelong symptoms. The journal, Pain Physician, reports long term symptoms following a whiplash are due to abnormal pain processing in the brain. Other researchers found patients who develop a widespread pain syndrome after an auto accident have abnormal function in their inner ear. More alarming, many of the routine tests used to evaluate whiplash patients are normal in those patients who go on to develop lifelong symptoms. Have you been in an accident? Several simple tests can help you to determine if you are at risk for long term problems. Call us today at 623.547.4727 and I’ll help you find out. ~ George W. Kukurin DC DACAN

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Party of denial Editor: A favorite tactic of totalitarian political systems is to deny the obvious. In this case, the Democratic Party and its leadership continue to tell Americans not to believe their lying eyes and ears. Parents are told that CRT is not being taught in their schools even though at school board meetings they learn about all the hateful, divisive, racist tenets of CRT that are part of their children’s curriculum. And when state legislators try to ban CRT from school curriculums, they are fiercely opposed by teachers unions for something that supposedly doesn’t exist. According to the president, inflation is not serious and will soon go away, except in the meantime, cost of basic necessities are up by 25% or more. Not to worry though, a multitrillion-dollar spending bill will somehow reduce inflation instead of actually increasing it. Increasing violence in cities is really not a problem and not the result of decreasing police forces but simply overstated and over reported. The shameful retreat from Afghanistan was a huge success according to President Biden, even though images of Afghans desperately clinging to departing planes and American soldiers being murdered was not relevant. There is no border crisis even though close to 2 million illegals will have crossed our southern border this year. We now have an administration who cannot be trusted and willing accomplices in the liberal media who will never hold them accountable. Igor Shpudejko Goodyear

Editor: To the young man who dropped his car engine on Sundance Park Way: I
have retrieved a piece of that engine and I’m hoping it’s a key piece of the engine because you are not getting it back. There are many residents living in this retirement community who are tired of wearing earplugs. We don’t all wear hearing aids. The motorcycles and cars that you soup up to impress your captive audience have jolted us out of bed many, too many times to count but we are not impressed. The ear-spitting problem on Sundance Parkway has always been a problem, but since the pandemic, it has really taken on a malicious note of intent. I saw you wearing a mask and it wasn’t for the pandemic. It was to protect yourself from all the gas fumes.

Just head to Cuba Editor:
The espousal propagated by the Marxists is a diatribe of ideology purporting truth but in essence demonstrates it never works. Look at Venezuela and Zimbabwe as two perfect examples of what equity defines. Both countries were exporting goods that caused them to flourish.
But because rulers that believe that socialistic equity was the way to go. Venezuela raised taxes to run social programs promoting socialist equity with swelling promises of a greater life. Soon those who were working and paying the overwhelming taxes could no longer support government spending. Producers of goods had to abandon their businesses because the economy faltered. Inflation blossomed to levels where their dollars were printed in the tens of thousands and worth a U.S. penny. Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe took all farm property away from the British promoting socialist equity and made them the people’s farms. Soon the farms became idle. No one was able to repair the machinery used for planting and harvesting. So it sat and rusted. Their currency rapidly became worthless because of inflation. Their currency inflated to the point they were printing bills that were in the billions of dollars. It is virtually worthless. For a U.S. dime, I bought a Z$40 billion and $1 billion note as a souvenir when I was in Zimbabwe. So, you can see the consequences of government spending by printing more money to pay for these grandiose
promises of building a better life. You will not find CRT in school programs, but you will find socialistic equity being taught and CRT is a part of equity. I would recommend that anyone who wants to flee socialistic countries like Cuba can come to America and those that want to live under socialism can go to Cuba. Les Armstrong Goodyear

E
arly on in your relationship, she confessed a semi-startling fact. While she had visited China as a little girl and walked along the Great Wall, never once had she been to New York City. To her, the metropolis back east seemed like a gleaming trophy to life made large. Broadway, Times Square, the Statue of Liberty. Skyscrapers and a chance to stride up Fifth Avenue in spike heels, like Carrie in “Sex and the City.” To you, the city was home once, the backdrop for a million childhood memories: a piping hot slice of pizza dripping with cheese, a walk around the Central Park reservoir, the concrete stoop fronting the old red brick apartment in Queens, the Garden for a Knicks game, a knish purchased from a street vendor and painted in brown mustard. She dreamed aloud. You egged it on, and thus a trip was born. New York at Christmastime and for New Year’s Eve. Plane tickets were purchased, hotel, theater and dinner reservations were made. And then Omicron showed up, which is exactly America’s luck in 2021. The spiking pandemic gives rise to a question, one that feels a little bit like some bad “Hamlet,” given that vacation issues are a decidedly first-world problem to have in the midst of global affliction. To go or not to go? To get on that jetliner, which departs tonight, or to cancel our plans and instead spend Christmas watching “Miracle on 34th Street,” instead of living it? Some background: We have both been vaccinated three times, and thus have been maximally protected against the dread virus. We are both in good health. We both understand that New York City will still be there next month, next year, next vacation, or the one after that.
And yet making the trip still feels tempting, especially when you run the numbers in your head. Last week in New York City, the infection rate among all 8 million residents was 193 infections for every 100,000 people. That’s a tenth of a percentage point chance of getting sick – and the infection rate for the vaccinated is half as much. This year in New York, COVID-19 has claimed one life for every 200,000 vaccinated residents. Put another way, I’d have a better chance of getting a hole in one (12,500 to 1) or being killed by lightning (1 in 138,849, according to the National Safety Council). Then again, to quote Jim Carrey as Lloyd Christmas from “Dumb and Dumber,” “So you’re saying there’s a chance?” Life is a series of calculated risks. Some of us have decided not to get vaccinated. Other people continue to avoid indoor gatherings and to wear masks while they’re outside walking their dogs. There are those of us who smoke despite the threat of lung cancer, others who would never think of wearing a motorcycle helmet because they like to feel like a badass. One of my buddies went skydiving last year. I turned down the invitation, saying I avoid optional danger in all forms, including jumping out of perfectly functional airplanes. But now here I am, contemplating risking my life for a hot dog with sauerkraut from Gray’s Papaya and the opportunity to show a pretty girl with a huge heart the Tyrannosaurus Rex exhibit at the Museum of Natural History. What would you do: Throw caution to the wind and live your life? Or give Omicron a wide berth and avoid New York literally like the plague? One thing’s for sure. If I go and end up in intensive care or dead, everyone who read this column and thought “tsk, tsk” sure will have one last chance to say “I told you so.” David Leibowitz has called the Valley home since 1995.

Tis the week before New Year’s, and for better or worse — The words of this column are written in verse. Campaigns are concocted, plans are made for the air, as politicians hope to show how much they know and they care. The voters are struggling, no names have been mentioned as thanks to inflation, folks can’t pay for attention! Mom was pacing the floor; Dad had joined her there…wishing they could print money right out of thin air! Then on the TV, they heard such a clatter, they both turned to watch and see what was the matter. On the screen was a show from the news folks of cable,

He drove home his message, laying it on thick, spreading the notion the viewers were sick. “First COVID, then Delta and Omicron, too! I bet there’s a mutation that’s coming for you!!” “Now, Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson… Forget “gain of function…” I’ll just redefine it! “From a bat cave to the lab…no, not a Wuhan market stall… you paid for it…paid for it…paid for it all!” As the outrage grew louder, the viewers grew mad, so convinced were they that this short doctor was bad… And fiercer and fiercer their outrage grew… at the leftist networks and the small doctor. too!
And then, in a twinkling, it all went “Poof!” As Hollywood actors acted out their “proof…” So skillful were they, their scripts turned folks around… And Dr. Fauci was able to scale the rebound! He was dressed all in white, from his toe to his head, But why did this doctor seem to delight in the dread? Therapeutics? He denied folks…and with that he was fine… As if he were saying that “your fate is mine!” Oh, how he loved it! His demeanor so merry… As if he determined which poor souls would be buried. His creepy old mouth was set firm in a smirk… How could anyone deny that this doc was a jerk?

New Avondale business hopes to improve human health BY LAUREN SERRATO
West Valley View Staff Writer
O
nePointOne has developed the most advanced indoor farming system in the world in San Jose, according to its owners. Combining proprietary robotics, analytics and plant-cultivation technology, OPO grows a wide variety of fruits and vegetables using 99% less land and water, with zero soil, pesticides or heavy metals. Now, leaving the market in California, brothers and co-owners Sam and John Bertram are relocating their business to Avondale with the mission to fundamentally rethink how plants are grown, utilized and optimized. “OnePointOne develops automated indoor plant production technology, it’s a bit of a mouthful,” Sam Bertram joked. “Vertical farming is another way to describe it. But essentially, we developed technology to produce plants indoors. We develop the ability to produce the plants at the highest quality, we develop the technology to automate the production of plants, both from a software perspective and a hardware perspective. We develop technology to grow the highest quality plants possible inside.” By selling and licensing farms, OPO can become the platform upon which the world’s plants are grown. OPO’s mission is to build the world’s largest network of automated indoor farms to nourish and heal 1.1 billion people. OPO has a farm in San Jose, and another, an 80,000-square-foot warehouse under construction in Avondale. The Bertram brothers said they recognized a major problem in the world and decided they wanted to be part of the solution. “I’m a mere mortal, and my brother and myself have been keenly aware of our mortality, obviously for our whole lives, and we thought since we are so fortunate, we’ve been given many blessings and we’ve worked hard for many more, we want to direct our efforts toward making the greatest difference in the shortest period of time,” Sam Bertram said. Once realizing one of the world’s greatest problems is poor nutrition, the

brothers joined forces to help combat the statistics. “About 821 million people don’t get enough food and 2.2 billion people get too much of the wrong stuff,” Sam said. “That’s the No. 1 problem and the No. 2 problem is poor access to medicine. “Plants are a solution to both. Once we discovered that and we discovered the issues that surround traditional farming the way we currently grow plants, we started to realize that there’s got to be a better way or that we must develop a better way to cultivate plants.” Using robots and artificial intelligence, OnePointOne grows plants indoors away from nature’s unpredictability. Its plants grow without soil or sunlight, replaced with high-precision irrigation and illumination systems. Inside an 80,000-square-foot warehouse, cleanrooms, each the size of a house, cultivate millions of plants tended by a fleet of autonomous robots responsible for inspecting and moving the plants. Humans monitor the farms from 750 miles away and ensure only the highest yields and qualities the plants can possibly express. “The concept of growing plants inside of warehouses has been around

54-acre industrial logistics park planned in Buckeye SVN Desert Commercial Advisors completed the sale of an approximately 54-acre industrial development site in Buckeye at the southeast corner of Southern Avenue and Rainbow Road within the Buckeye Rail Corridor. The property was acquired from KWC Motorsports LLC, for $6.525 million by Buckeye 54 LLC, a joint venture formed by Contour Real Estate and Shopoff Realty Investments, both California-based real estate investment and development firms. The joint venture plans to build a logistics park encompassing two warehouses totaling 900,000 square feet. The deal had been in escrow for sev-
en months as Contour worked through infrastructure issues with the city of Buckeye. Additionally, Contour RealEstate has 77 acres in Buckeye closing this year for another large warehouse and manufacturing project totaling 1.2 million square feet. “The area will experience explosive growth over the next decade as more and more development continues,” said Chief Executive Officer David Daneshforooz. Paul Borgesen and Dylan Sproul of SVN Desert Commercial Advisors negotiated the transaction on behalf of the buyer. “It was a pleasure to work with both buyer and seller in this successful transaction. It’s exciting to work on projects that will add large employment bases and accelerate economic growth in our Phoenix Metro area,” Borgesen said.

Once we develop this technology, we can start to proliferate the technology around the world. Our goal is to provide 1.1 billion people with the foods and medicines that will nourish and heal them.” Since the start of OPO in 2017, the brothers said they’ve focused on developing the technology to drop the price production. Sam refers to the Avondale location as the company’s “model home,” adding that it will show people what they’re capable of. Following the opening of the Avondale facility, eventually OPO will sell those farms around the world for a wide variety of purposes. “We did a nationwide search and went city by city and had a look at all of the

parameters that mattered to us, cost of labor of construction, cost of living, cost of electricity,” Sam said. “One of the most important things we found was working with the government. We really see the power of government, we see the power of our technology, we want to combine those powers and after having many conversations with the state of Arizona and more particularly the city of Avondale, we knew that we could work very closely with that organization to grow this business as quickly as possible.” Looking forward to the growth of his business, Sam said he’s most excited about helping people and improving their lives. “We have a genuine built-in opportunity to make a huge difference to people’s lives, not just a minor difference, and that’s what I’m excited about,” he said. “That’s what gets me up every day… we can facilitate businesses with their plant production needs, and in the end, make the lives of human beings better, meaningfully without harming the environment. That’s what has me pumped.” OPO will host an exclusive event at the Arizona farm in April to unveil its technology to the community.

or those who live in Arizona and bleed Cardinal red, there are a handful of names that are synonymous with the team. Former quarterback Kurt Warner is one of them. Released on Christmas Day, “American Underdog: The Kurt Warner Story” covers the Super Bowl winner’s backstory. It takes a deep dive into Warner’s life before he joined the St. Louis Rams and the beginning of his NFL career. “American Underdog” tells the inspirational true story of Warner (Zachary Levi), who went from a stock boy at a grocery store to a two-time NFL MVP, Super Bowl champion, and Hall of Fame quarterback. The film centers on Warner’s years of challenges and setbacks that could have derailed his aspirations to become an NFL player. It seemed out of reach until he meets his future wife, Brenda (Anna Paquin), and receives encouragement from his family, coaches and teammates. Warner attended college at the University of Northern Iowa and went undrafted. He tried out for the Green Bay Packers but landed with the Arena Football League’s Iowa Barnstormers. Following that stint, Warner made his way back to the NFL finding a home in St. Louis with the Rams, where he would eventually lead the team to a Super Bowl. The American gambling company FanDuel offered fans the chance to meet Warner and Levi at WestWorld of Scottsdale in early December. “With the movie coming out with Kurt Warner, there is a lot of interest in that movie and it made a lot of sense to bring him along for this,” said Jeff Forvour, FanDuel marketing director.
“He and Zach were more than happy to come down and do this with us, which was really cool.” Levi — who previously starred in “Shazam” and TV’s “Chuck” — called the Warner role remarkable. “I was watching his story go down in real time, back in ’99, 2000,” Levi said. “And I think, like most of the country or at least anyone in the country who was paying attention, I was so blown away and inspired by it.” Warner hadn’t previously met Levi, but he was curious as to how he would work out. “I don’t know anything about acting cause these guys do a great job, but you always feel like you want the person on the screen to be authentic,” Warner said. “You want people to see them and go, man, I really buy into that.” But it didn’t take long for worries to fade. “Once I got to know Zach, I thought he was going to do a great job with it because it’s true to who he is, on top of his great acting skills,” Warner said. “Without a doubt, I’m extremely happy with how it played out.” Those who are hoping to see Warner don a Cardinals uniform in the movie will, unfortunately, be disappointed as the film stops during his time at the Rams. “The Cardinals’ years are in that second chapter, such a special chapter for me,” Warner said. “But, it just seems like this is the right time to stop this movie and where it’s going to inspire people and how it’s going to connect with people.” Levi made a quick joke about it. “The sequel, ‘American Underdog: Electric Boogaloo,’ is going to just blow people’s minds,” Levi said with a laugh referring to the 1984 breakdancing movie. “It’s going to be you (Warner) and Larry Fitzgerald breaking. You have no idea.”

Buckeye wedding, events venue reopens after 10 years BY LAUREN SERRATO

Located on South Jackrabbit Trail, Nardini Manor hosts weddings and events following a decade-long closure. (Photo by Cassandra Tomei)
ardini Manor, known as the “jewel of the West,” has reopened for weddings and events after a decade-long closure. The picturesque, white two-story home is visible driving south of Jackrabbit Road off the I-10 just before Hickman’s Egg Co. on the east side of the road. The venue welcomed the return of guests this year and has 25 events booked for 2022. “It would just be so sad if there was never a wedding here again,” said Christa Esquibel, Nardini Manor events manager. “This place is totally built for weddings. It’s made for those magical days. It’s magical. Sometimes you feel like you’re not even in Buckeye, let alone Ar-
izona. This place really has that ability.” Nardini Manor, located at 5601 S. Jackrabbit Trail, was established by the Rev. Ralph H. and Edna Fields in 1910, the same year the nearby Arizona Eastern Railway tracks were being laid. The home took two years to construct and was finalized the same year Arizona became a state, 1912. Thomas and Kay Nardini restored the home in 1975, adding the north and south wings of the house, manicured hedges — including a maze — gardens, fountains, sculptures and other elements throughout the property. In 1990, a fire severely damaged the interior. After losing his wife, Thomas sold the property in 1991 to a local couple, Rodger and Tana Wrublik.

Venue...continued from page 17 After an 11-month restoration, Nardini Manor was reborn. Esquibel said they tried to incorporate authentic period elements, including the 1910 wood fl ooring that was salvaged from the nearby Liberty School building. The manor closed to the public for 10 years so the couple could focus on their family. The Wrubliks then decided to bring on Esquibel in hopes of hosting a farmers market. However, Esquibel said she had bigger plans for the venue. “They approached me to do a farmers market here and I asked them if I could go ahead and bring weddings back and they were pretty excited to see that happen,” she said. “It’s been a really great response so far. I think people are really excited not only because it’s a private and lush wedding venue, it’s also very green and gardenesque. People are excited about that, but also because it’s in the West Valley and there really are not as many venues in the West Valley.” Esquibel added that she looks forward to the venue’s future, especially as the city continues to grow and more people are attracted farther west.
Originally finished in 1912, Nardini Manor has had a slew of owners who have continually restored or added onto the property. Owners Rodger and Tana Wrublik hired events manager, Christa Esquibel to bring back events to the venue. (Photo by Cassandra Tomei)
“Now that Buckeye is one of the biggest and fastest-growing cities in Arizona, or even the country, it’s just pretty awesome to be able to bring it back now that there’s been so much growth around and it’s a lot closer for people now,” she said. Nardini Manor has a Disneyland or “Alice in Wonderland” vibe. Esquibel said there’s one element that sets the venue apart. “I love it all but the maze is probably the most unique part,” she said. “You’re not really going to find a maze
that’s not made out of corn in a lot of other places. So it’s really cool that it stays green year round and it’s just a fun element that just makes your wedding unique. I came to an event here, a wedding, when I was in seventh grade, and I’ve remembered it my whole life because I don’t think you can go to a wedding with a maze and not remember that.” Looking toward the new year and the future of the Nardini Manor, Esquibel said she wants to bring her farm animals to the venue. Above all, she said she’s

excited to be part of its growth and further success. “I just want to keep having weddings and events and corporate parties and proms and things like that here because I’ve always loved doing events and unique things, holiday events and stuff like that. I hope we are booked out every weekend from now until when I want to retire,” she said. The Nardini Manor’s tours are by appointment only.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. The two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

he Tolleson Public Library will kick off 2022 by offering teenagers a new Manga Club, focusing on comics and graphic novels from Japan. The new program, which begins Wednesday, Jan. 12, will assist the library’s efforts to launch its library on wheels. The traditional bookmobile is parked outside in the front parking lot of the library, located next to Tolleson Union High School. “They actually don’t even have a library on campus right now because of construction and renovation,” said Lila Garza, library coordinator. “We’ve been trying to set up and be able to

provide them with as many library services as we can.” After noticing the growing popularity and frequent requests about Manga, the library’s bookmobile clerk, Humberto “Chip” Nieto, came up with the idea to create a club dedicated specifically to the genre. “We knew that it was a popular genre just in terms of our circulation statistics, it’s always been pretty popular for young adult readers here in the library,” Garza said. “But when trying to figure out a teen program that would give them an opportunity to interact, we figured Manga would be a good place to start since it is something that they request anyways.

physical materials to take home in order to engage their creativity, so that it’s not just kind of passively talking about books, but it’s also giving them the opportunity to make things artistically.” Aside from getting teens involved in their public library, Garza said programs like this are important because of the pandemic and the restrictions it’s had on kids’ ability to interact. “The teens do need an opportunity to connect with the library and to connect with each other,” she said. “It’s been a hard year because of COVID and just having that space and having that opportunity for them to kind of hang out with each other and just be able to talk about something that they like I think is really important.” Nieto added there’s already been positive feedback and excitement for the new club. “Their excitement, their passion, it is contagious and so I’m very excited for their own excitement,” he said. Prior to the pandemic, Garza said the library was always filled with high school students, but she admits the initial struggle her team has faced to try to accommodate the teens while staying safe and healthy. “The teens would come right over to the library when the school day was done and they would hang out here, pick up books, type and print school assignments, meet up with each other to work on projects or just hang out on the computers or play board games,” Garza said. “We were definitely a hub but once COVID happened and we were not having people physically in the library, it was really, really difficult to reach the teens in a virtual space.”
After several attempts to reach teens failed, Garza said their saving grace was the library on wheels. The large truck is equipped with a full collection of books, Wi-Fi and audio-visual capabilities. Garza said the truck offers most of what kids can find inside the library, but in mobile form. “Once we got the library on wheels, that’s when things really changed for us because it gave us the opportunity to serve them all of the usual kinds of library services, but to be able to do it outside and to do it in a way that was safe and to do it in a way that was Humberto “Chip” Nieto is the bookmobile very visible and accessible to clerk and the creator of the library’s Manga them,” she said.

Christopher Keeton
Christopher "Scott" Keeton of Surprise, AZ, passed away unexpectedly on November 9, 2021 at the age of 55. He is preceded in death by his parents Dennis and Gloria Keeton and his uncle James L. Keeton (End of Watch, February 5, 1971). He is survived by his wife of 33 years Glennys "Glenn" and their son, Kristopher (fiancée Erica). Scott grew up in Holbrook and moved to Phoenix where he graduated from Bourgade Catholic High School. He received his Criminal Justice Law Certificate from Glendale Community College. Scott started his law enforcement career with the Avondale Police Department as a reserve in 1989. He then moved on to Tolleson Police Department for three years before rejoining Avondale, this time as a full time officer. Scott served in many capacities for Avondale including Detective, FTO, DARE, Teen Police Academy, and Avondale Police Explorers. He was also a School Resource Office for Westview High School, Littleton Elementary School and Underdown Jr. High School where he was also a basketball coach. Scott retired from Avondale in 2008. After retiring from Avondale, Scott worked for Maricopa County Judicial Branch Security Department as a Sergeant for South Court Tower. He also worked weekends at Guns Plus where he was able to enjoy his hobby, his love for guns. There is so much more to be said about Scott. To sum it up, he had a fierce love for his family and genuinely cared for all of his friends as well as everyone he met and aided throughout his time here. We love him dearly and he will truly be missed. A Celebration of Life memorial service will be held for Scott on Thursday, January 13, 2022 at 5:30 PM at West Resthaven Funeral Home, 6450 West Northern Avenue, Glendale, AZ 85301.
