Another Virtual Business Forum to Be Held This Week As the impact of COVID-19 on local businesses quickly became a reality just over a week ago, Mayor Liz Lempert reached out to James Steward, director of Princeton University Art Museum and a board member of the Princeton Merchants Association (PMA), for ideas. How could small- and mid-sized businesses manage throughout the crisis? The conversation resulted in the first Virtual Princeton Business Forum, held last Thursday and “attended” by some 82 interested parties, via Zoom. The conversation, which was led by Steward, will be repeated this Thursday, March 26 at 10 a.m., with a representative from the New Jersey Economic Development Authority on hand to answer question about loans, financing, and technical assistance. The virtual gathering is presented by the PMA, and is open to members and nonmembers. “I knew that step one was to create an opportunity for people to come together sooner rather than later,” said Steward, who will host the second event. “The pace with which this crisis has unfolded was leaving people feeling isolated and frightened and alone. And that includes the business community.” Among those who posed questions and comments during the first forum were proprietors of Labyrinth Books, Casa Aziz, Princeton Garden Theatre, Jammin’ Crepes, Bella Boutique, Homestead Princeton, and Thomas Sweet. Marco Cucchi, who owns Thomas Sweet, said concerns about the health of his employees led him to close all four of the ice cream café’s locations, in the hopes that they could get a jump on securing unemployment compensation. Jack Morrison, PMA president and owner of the JM Group’s five restaurants, offered to be a resource on the employee question, having established a Go Fund Me account for his workers. Lempert spoke about the princetoncovid.org website that has been established as a one-stop source during the crisis. “People want to help the business community,” she said. “This group should channel that.” Commenting on whether people are following social distantancing, she said, “We’re counting on the worst actor to be behaving in the best way possible.” Continued on Page 10

Health Officer: “Not Out of the Woods Yet” “I’m proud of Princeton for its first full week of dedicated social distancing, but we are not out of the woods yet,” said Princeton Health Officer Jeff Grosser in Tuesday’s COVID-19 Update. The Princeton Health Department (PHD) announced an additional positive case in Princeton on Tuesday, which brings the total to 10. The latest case is a Princeton University student, who is currently in isolation on campus. The PHD is investigating the source of the infection and who the individual may have come into close contact with. Princeton Mayor Liz Lempert warned that current statistics probably understate the magnitude of the epidemic. “It is important to understand that the prevalence of coronavirus in the community is likely to be significantly higher than these numbers indicate,” she said. “It is vitally important for everyone to be heeding the governor’s order to stay at home whenever possible, and to practice social distancing when leaving your house.” She continued, “Slowing the rate of spread will help give our medical system and first responders the much needed time to gear up to treat people who fall sick and help control the volume of people who will be needing care.” In his daily COVID-19 press briefing

Tuesday, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy delivered what he called “a sobering report.” He announced the largest single-day increase in deaths with 17 new deaths from coronavirus, bringing the total in the state to 44. There are now at least 3,675 coronavirus total cases in New Jersey, a one-day increase of 846. New Jersey ranks second in the nation after New York for the number of cases. In delivering the daily update on the princetoncovid.org website, Grosser urged a focus on preventing the spread

of the virus to the most vulnerable populations and on preparing for the possibility of a hospital surge. “Those are the individuals who should be central to our efforts. We need continued community support to reap the benefits of reducing disease transmission through the coronavirus.” He continued, stressing the importance of social distancing “to break the chains of transmission and slow the number of people who become sick.” He noted that the vast majority of deaths Continued on Page 7

Community Partners Adapt, Team Up To Increase Resiliency and Preparedness Sustainable Princeton (SP), since its founding in 2012, has been working to combat climate change and prepare the Princeton community for extreme weather events, like hurricanes. This one isn’t a hurricane, but it turns out that building community resiliency is a good idea for many different reasons, and the Princeton Climate Action Plan (CAP), despite its specific focus on climate crises, is helping Princeton in its struggle against the spreading coronavirus. “Many of the resiliency actions the plan includes help Princeton’s preparations for

all emergencies,” SP Executive Director Molly Jones wrote in an email. “The further the community as a whole is along in its essential preparedness, the more we relieve demand on our social and emergency services. This allows these departments to better assist our most vulnerable community members.” In a press release last week, SP emphasized ”the paralyzing impact that COVID-19 (coronavirus) is having on all of us,” and added, “As every hour brings concerning news from our region and the Continued on Page 10

Princeton Nursery School Reaches Out, and the Community Responds After Princeton Nursery School closed its doors on March 16 to prevent the spread of t he coronav irus (COVID-19), staff and supporters knew they had to spring into action. The 91-year-old preschool on Leigh Avenue provides its young students with two daily meals and a snack. In many cases, their families fall below the federal

poverty line, making those meals essential. The day the school closed, students were sent home with ShopRite gift cards and two weeks’ worth of food provided by Send Hunger Packing Princeton. But Rose Wong, the school’s executive director, knew it was only a temporary stopgap. “Over 50 percent of our parents have either lost their jobs or had their hours slashed, so they’re really struggling,” she said on Monday. “We want to make sure we are still here for them.”

The school immediately reached out to the community for help through email and social media, quickly raising $20,000. And today, March 25, at 2 p.m., The Meeting House restaurant on Witherspoon Street will be providing meals for the school to distribute to its families. The children will also receive more Send Hunger Packing bags, as well as packets of activities and art supplies. For those families who live in the Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood, The Meeting House is a convenient walk away. But not all of the student body is local. “More than 50 percent of our families don’t live in Princeton. They’re in Lawrence, Plainsboro, Ewing, Hamilton, and Trenton, and there are not as many resources readily available to them in those areas,” said Wong. “We’re kind of like a support line for those families, and we want to let them know we are still able to suppor t them.” Another obstacle is the fact that many families don’t have access to the internet, limiting communication to telephone or text. “We’re working with the teachers to keep the kids connected,” said Wong. “In the packets that the children are getting with art supplies, crayons, and worksheets, there are letters from their teacher so that they are keeping in touch.” For those parents who are not fluent in English, the school is helping them complete forms for emergency assistance through the Princeton Human Serv ices Depar tment. “A nd we’re trying to get information for parents who live in

other towns,” said Wong. “We’re constantly calling our families.” Wong spoke to one parent, a single mother, who has temporarily lost her job and has no transportation to get to the food market. Wong got in her car, went to the store, and delivered the groceries to the woman. “I think our message all along is that for 91 years, we have been a par t of the fabr ic of the Pr inceton Community,” said Dr. Danielle Betsen, president of the Princeton Nursery School Board of Trustees. “I am so thankful that the community has overwhelmingly supported us so we can continue to help those families that need us. We are closed for now, but our work continues to help them Continued on Next Page

Suppers Program Announces Matching Gift Challenge

Our Children Are Hungry - We Need Your Help PNS Hunger Prevention Gift Card Appeal Please help the food insecure families at Princeton Nursery School during this uncertain time. While it is a lot to ask as we all urgently take measures to protect ourselves and others during this national pandemic, these vulnerable families need us now more than ever. Some of our PNS families are unable to work with business closures and social distancing regulations. Some have lost their jobs and much needed income all together. With our school closed due to the Coronavirus outbreak, we are unable to provide our families in need with an education, child care, wellness education language assistance, or economic support. Most importantly, we are unable to provide a lifeline to food for these families. We are asking for donations to provide supermarket gift cards to those families. Any amount is eagerly welcomed with gratitude.

In memory of its founder Dorothy Mullen, who died on March 15, the Suppers Program has been given a Matching Gift Challenge of $500,000. Every donation made in memory of Mullen will go towards this challenge and securing a home for Suppers. For years, Mullen had been running two dozen programs every month from her home in Princeton. She encouraged people to share their health challenges, talk about their food experiments, embrace their missteps, and celebrate their successes. Her desire to enable people to find their path to vibrant health was achieved by holding meetings where participants would meet, cook, eat, and learn together in a safe and friendly environment. When Mullen was diagnosed with lung cancer last year, Suppers secured a temporary space at The Blawenburg Café in Skillman. Now, the organization is in search of a home where signature meetings and workshops can continue, a garden can be planted, and a long-term gathering place can be secured. To donate, make checks payable to: The Suppers Programs, 211 North Harrison Street, Suite A4, Princeton, NJ 08540 or visit thesuppersprograms.org.

But I have been doing everything I can to keep busy — cleaning cabinets, doing laundry, picture organizing, and a lot of reading.

They are taking wonderful care of all of the residents there, but not being able to go be with him is the hardest part.” —Wendy Jolley, Princeton

from COVID-19 have been those age 60 and above. More than three-quarters of the deaths in Italy, which has the highest number of fatalities, have been people age 70 and older. He went on to point out that South Korea and Singapore have been successful at controlling the spread of the disease through “active approaches to ensure that the elderly don’t become infected.” Assisted living facilities and nursing homes are being closely monitored, Grosser said, and “these facilities are receiving priority access to testing when necessary. Seniors in communities outside of care facilities also need to be closely watched,” he added. “Older citizens may need assistance and support to help with food and obtaining

necessities,” he said. “They also need to access information about protective measures. Priority resources and attention to the population most likely to produce the greatest number of severe illnesses has the best chance of prevent ing t he overwhelming hospital surge we are seeing in parts of Italy and we are anticipating to happen in parts of the U.S.” Municipal officials are taking measures to address such a surge by preparing for additional patient beds a nd temp orar y hospit a l structures. “Municipal officials are actively working with county, regional, state, and federal authorities to prepare for this potential need,” said Grosser. “We need to push the message: If it’s not essential, stay home. But if your neighbor needs something, help them out,” he said.

The American Red Cross now faces a severe blood shortage due to an unprecedented number of blood drive cancellations in response to the coronavirus outbreak. Healthy individuals are needed now to donate to help patients counting on lifesaving blood. Indiv iduals can schedule an appointment to give blood with the Red Cross by visiting RedCrossBlood.org, using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, calling (800) RED-CROSS, or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device. According to the American Red Cross, as the coronavirus pandemic has grown here in the U.S., blood drive cancellations have grown at an alarming rate. To date, nearly 2,700 Red Cross blood dr ives have been —Donald Gilpin canceled across the country due to concerns about congregating at workplaces, college campuses, and schools amidst the coronavirus outbreak. These cancellations have resulted in some 86,000 fewer blood donations. More than 80 percent of the blood the Red Cross collects comes from drives held at locations of this type. Here in the region that includes Southeastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, 156 blood drives have been canceled, resulting in 5,533 fewer blood donations. The Red Cross is adding appointment slots at donation centers and expanding capacity at many communit y blood dr ives across the country over the

nors to give. The Red Cross expects the number of cancellations to continue to increase, which is causing heightened concern for blood collection organizations and hospitals across the countr y. This blood shortage could impact patients who need surgery, victims of car accidents, and other emergencies, or patients suffering from cancer. “In our experience, the American public comes together to support those in need during times of shortage and that suppor t is needed now more than ever during this unprecedented public health crisis,” said Chris Hrouda, president, Red Cross Biomedical Services. “Unfortunately, when people stop donating blood, it forces doctors to make hard choices about patient care, which is why we need those who are healthy and well to roll up a sleeve and give the gift of life.” “We know that people want to help, but they may be hesitant to visit a blood drive during this time,” continued Hrouda. “We want to assure the public that blood donation is a safe process, and we have put additional precautions in place at our blood drives and donation centers to protect all who come out.” The Red Cross has implemented new measures to ensure blood drives and donation centers are even safer for donors and staff, including checking the temperature of staff and donors before entering a drive to make sure they are healthy;

as throughout the donation process; spacing beds, where possible, to follow social distancing practices between blood donors; and increasing enhanced disinfecting of surfaces and equipment. At each blood drive and donation center, Red Cross employees already follow thorough safety protocols to help prevent the spread of any type of infection, including wearing gloves and changing gloves with each donor; rout inely w iping down donor-touched areas; using sterile collection sets for every donation; and preparing the arm for donation with an aseptic scrub. There is no data or evidence that this coronavirus can be transmitted by blood transfusion, and there have been no reported cases of transfusion transmission for any respiratory virus including this coronavirus worldwide. “Volunteer donors are the unsung heroes for patients in need of lifesaving blood transf usions. If you are healthy, feeling well and eligible to give, please schedule an appointment to give now,” said Hrouda. Donors can also save up to 15 minutes at the blood drive by completing a RapidPass. Wit h Rapid Pass, donors complete the pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of donation, from a mobile device or computer. To complete a RapidPass, follow the instructions at redcrossblood.org/rapidpass or use the donor app at redcrossblood.org.

YWCA Princeton has announced that Melissa White is the new director of its Breast Cancer Resource Center (BCRC). The Breast Cancer Resource Center provides free support services for Mercer Count y women throughout any and every stage of their breast cancer journey. This includes a transportation and companionship program that brings women to and from treatment, fitness and wellness classes, a wig boutique and prosthesis fitting, and more. As the former support services coordinator for the BCRC, White is already well acquainted with the mission of YWCA Princeton, and the women and families they serve. Y WCA Pr inceton CEO Judy Hutton said, “Melissa has always been a team player, and now she is a team leader. She’s been critical in the administration of daily services provided by the BCRC as well as in the planning and execution of large events and fundraisers.” White, an eight-year cancer survivor herself, said, “I am excited to be the new director of the Breast Cancer Resource Center. The legacy of the women before me is an incredible groundwork for what we are doing today and for what we have planned for the future of the BCRC.”

2020 Census Count Has Big Impact; Help Shape the Future of Princeton “Shape your future. Start here,” reads the United States 2020 Census website, and Census Day is just one week away on April 1. The results from the 2020 census will be used to direct billions of dollars in federal funds to local communities for schools, roads, health clinics, and other public services; to help communities prepare to meet transportation and emergency readiness needs; and to determine the number of seats in Congress and the state legislature. “It’s going to have lots of impact in our community for the next 10 years,” said Princeton Councilwoman and Complete Count Committee (CCC) Chair Leticia Fraga. “For all of our organizations that need funding, we will be able to provide more if we have an accurate count. We know there has been an undercount in the past.” To ensure that Princeton counts all its residents this time and receives all the funding that is due, Princeton Council passed a resolution in October 2019 to create the CCC. The YMCA subsequently received a grant from the Princeton Area Community Foundation to help ensure that hard-to-count populations — the undocumented, communities of color, and young children — are included in Princeton’s 2020 count. The census, a count of every person who lives in the country, has been conducted every 10 years since 1790 and is mandated by the U.S. Constitution.

“The most important message,” said Fraga, “is to let every single individual know that they count, and we want to make sure that they are counted, and we need their help to do that.” Fraga pointed out that census counts determine what funds and grants Princeton is eligible for, as well as school lunches, the district’s representation in the state government, and how many seats in Congress each state gets. “In 2010 we basically left quite a bit of resources on the table,” said Princeton YMCA CEO Kate Bech, noting that many Princeton residents were not included in the count. The YMCA and CCC are planning programming, possibly including a video available in multiple languages with step-by-step instructions on how to complete the census. They had planned information sessions through March, as the census questionnaires arrived at people’s homes, as well as a number of events and programs in April to reach out to hard-to-count communities. “We have information sessions ready to go,” said Bech, “but everything had to stop with the coronavirus pandemic. The good news is that when we get the green light we can rev up fast.” Individuals’ responses to the census are required by law, and answers are kept completely conf ident ial. There is no citizenship question on the 2020 census. The form takes less than 10 minutes on average to complete.

Fraga urged Princeton residents to respond by April 1 either online, by phone, or by mail. She noted that after April 1 census bureau interviewers would be coming to homes that hadn’t responded. “For me, that’s part of the challenge in reaching our immigrant community,” said Fraga. “We’ve been conducting ‘know your rights’ workshops, and you don’t have to open the door unless the person has a warrant.” She added, “So if you don’t want someone coming to your door, respond to the census by April 1.” Mayor Liz Lempert joined the chorus of community members who are eager to see an accurate count in Princeton so that the town receives its full allotment of funding and representation. “We are encouraging all residents to fill out their census forms,” she said. “They should have received them in the mail some time over the past week. Having a complete count is important for many reasons, including ensuring our community receives its fair share of federal funding.” —Donald Gilpin

The Meeting House is also partnering with Share My Meals www.sharemymeals.org and Princeton Nursery School https://princetonnurseryschool.org 277 Witherspoon Street • Princeton, NJ • 609.436.7891


When Isabelle Lambotte founded Share My Meals to help Princeton’s food insecure last January, she never imagined the organization would be scrambling to provide meals due to a fastspreading global pandemic. Since COVID-19 arrived in Princeton, that is exactly what volunteers at the small nonprofit are doing. Share My Meals works with local restaurants, corporations, universities, and suppliers to provide excess inventory to those facing difficulties putting food on the table. Currently, restaurants The Meeting House and Mezzaluna, both on Witherspoon Street, and The Blue Bear, in Princeton Shopping Center, are partnering with the organization while the crisis continues. Lambotte knows restaurants that have managed to continue paying some staff won’t be able to do so indefinitely. As a result, the organization is raising money to keep the program going. “We are expecting this, as it is, to last less than two weeks,” she said. “So my idea is to go ahead with these partners by raising money to cover the cost of staff and goods. It would be a win-win, because we could supply the food and they could continue to pay a limited part of their staff.” The Meeting House normally employs a staff of more than 50. Now limited to takeout and delivery, the eatery is currently

operating with a staff of five. Since joining w ith Share My Meals last week, the restaurant has been providing trays of healthful food, each of which feeds a family of five, to local residents registered with the program. On Tuesday, 15 trays were being prepared, to feed a total of 75. “O u r i n i t i a l t h o u g h t , when the crisis star ted, was to feed our staff,” said Amanda Maher, who owns the restaurant with her husband, Amar Guatam. “Then Amar said, wouldn’t it be great if there’s some organization that we could cook meals for? We had been introduced to Share My Meals during Restaurant Week, so we emailed them. And we’ve gone from there.” The Meeting House is also providing trays for Princeton Nursery School, as well as the restaurant staff. “Our chef is really great at keeping costs down, and using things up creatively,” said Guatam. Lambotte founded Share My Meals after working at a mobile food pantry for many years. The supply of food wasn’t steady, leading her to start her own venture. Before COVID-19 closed Princeton University, the Tiger Inn eating club was providing the nonprofit with meals for about 60 to 80 people, three times a week. “Now, the situation has changed,” Lambotte said. “Our major donors, like Princeton University, have

stopped activity. But we have received a very good reaction from the restaurants. We don’t deliver them directly now, instead we ask the people to go and pick the meals up at the times that are assigned.” T h e p ar t n er s h ip w it h res taurants is new and may need adjustment. “We have to see how it works,” said Lambotte. “If we raise enough money, we can ask for 200 meals every day. I think working with these three restaurants is a good start.” For The Meeting House, which has only been open since November, partnering with Share My Meals has opened up an opportunity to connect further with the community. “It feels like the right thing to do, and we’re in a fortunate situation where we can help,” said Guatam. “There is a civic responsibility to get involved and do what we can.” Lambotte has contacted some corporations about obtaining support. In addition to funds, the organization needs more volunteers. “I think what we are doing is kind of unique,” she said. “It’s very local. We know exactly what we have to do. We have a personal relationship with the people we are helping. And it allows people to keep working and keep their role in society.” Visit sharemymeals.org for more information. —Anne Levin

Community Foundation Creates Relief Fund

The Princeton Area Comm u n it y Fou n d at ion has assembled a coalition of funders to create a COVID-19 Relief and Recovery Fund to help support nonprofits working with the most vulnerable residents in Mercer County and the surrounding region. The Fund has $1 million in contr ibutions to date, including $250,000 each from the Community Foundation, Bet t y Wold Johnson, and the George H. and Estelle M. Sands Foundation. “We know that many of our local residents were already dealing with financial hardships before the unprecedented coronavirus crisis hit New Jersey,” said Jeffrey M. Vega, president and CEO of the Princeton Area Community Foundation, which will host the Fund. “Each day we are learning about more adverse impact as a result of the outbreak. So, although we have received $1 million in donations to date, we anticipate the continuing needs in our community will be much greater, and we encourage others to join us in this funding effort.” Founding supporters of the Fund also include The Bunbury Fund at the Community Foundation, NJM Insurance Group, The Burke Foundation, and the Fund for Women and Girls at the Communit y Foundation, and other individual donors. “We are pleased we are able to quickly help our community during this national emergency, when our

most vulnerable neighbors are experiencing stress and hardship, with no sense of when the crisis will abate,” said Betsy Sands, a trustee of the Sands Foundation. “I hope that other philanthropists in our community will join us in providing funding for this essential support during these difficult and uncertain times.” Children, families, and seniors in low-income communities from the region are projected to face the most immediate and longterm struggles because of food and housing insecurity, reduced or lost income, health issues, and childcare needs related to school closures. “This pandemic is unprecedented, and we must come together as a community to help those most in need,” said Anthony “Skip” Cimino, board chair of the Community Foundation. “We expect that the needs in our region will quickly change as this virus spreads, and we’re prepared to respond to them. We are grateful for donations from our founding supporters, and we ask that more private foundations, philanthropists, and corporations join us, as we

work together to try to mitigate the damage caused by this virus.” The Fund is designed to be flexible and nimble, so grants can quickly be directed to nonprofit service prov iders. S ome of t he funding will be earmarked to help nonprofits during the immediacy of this crisis, while other grants will focus on the long-term recovery in the aftermath. Community Foundation staff is communicating with government leaders, private foundations, and nonprofit organizations to assess local needs and to coordinate with other funders during this crisis. The grant application process will be announced soon. The Community Foundation created the fund because nonprofits are facing significant economic hardships as a result of this crisis and will need philanthropic dollars in addition to the funding expected to be provided by local and state government. The Community Foundation welcomes gifts from individual donors at any time to support neighbors in need. Visit pacf.org.

Local Nonprofit Turns to Restaurants To Provide Meals For Food Insecure

world, the need for building our resiliency and preparations for crises is now more clear than ever.” Noting that she and SP are not the principal leaders of the community-wide response to the crisis, Jones emphasized the importance of partnerships among multiple organizations and leaders. “The executive directors of many different groups are being amazingly supportive of each other and really pulling together to do what they can to get the safety nets, the suppor t net works in place to minimize the impact of this as much as possible.” She continued, “Much of our community’s resiliency is tied to our strength in working together and supporting each other. Princeton’s nonprofit, government, and business leaders are working together to support our community’s needs, with particular focus on those with food insecurity and other vulnerabilities.” Jones mentioned in particular Drew Dyson of the Princeton Senior Resource Center and Melissa Urias of Princeton’s Human Resource Department, who have been leading a coordinated effort to support seniors. She also pointed out that the Princeton Public Library, Princeton Public Schools, and the municipal government have come together to combine COVID-19 resources and guidance through a new website, princetoncovid.org. The Neighborhood Buddy program, led by Princeton Council President David Cohen, has also provided valuable support for residents.

“All of these actions are testaments to the strong resiliency fabric woven by thoughtful leadership aligning our resources for the betterment of the community,” Jones added. “We continue to focus on the most vulnerable people who are home alone or have a health reason that is magnifying their need to quarantine. We’re concerned about their mental health as well as their physical health.” She went on to discuss the economic hardship that the pandemic is creating for many in Princeton, as businesses shut down and workers lose their jobs. “There are so many communit y members who are facing the financial burden of this experience. It is going to have horrific ramifications and is going to impact their ability to meet their basic needs, to have food and the basic means to provide for rent.” Encouraging Pr inceton residents to embrace resilience strategies defined by the CAP, Jones pointed out specific actions community members could take to help prepare for whatever challenges might come. She noted the importance of Pr inceton Prepares, a program funded by the Health Impact Project, Pew Charitable Trusts, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, to help residents be better prepared for emergencies. It includes the Extra Assistance Registry, which helps emergency responders serve residents who find it difficult to help themselves in the event of a major disaster. Individuals should register if t hey live alone ; have a hearing, visual, or

cognitive impairment; require mobility assistance; rely on supplemental oxygen or refrigerated medication; or have limited English skills. Emergency Services knows basic information about the vulnerabilities of the approximately 70 Princeton residents who have registered already, and is able to reach out to them to check on their status. Princeton Prepares has also updated its contact list in the Emergency Operation Plan, a confidential plan overseen by the Department of Emergency and Safety Services. Princeton Prepares’ materials, including emergency communications, are provided in Spanish as well as Mandarin. “We still have a long way to go to communicate with all residents, but recognizing this need is a positive first step towards progress,” Jones said. —Donald Gilpin

Virtual Business Forum continued from page one

In an email this week, Lempert said of the forum, “From the municipal government side, we wanted to hear about what more we could be doing to help out businesses and their employees, and connect them to available resources. And we wanted to hear directly from the business owners about their immediate concerns. The meeting also gave merchants a chance to ask questions of our health officer and to hear from each other about their plans.” S te w a r d s a i d h e w a s pleased with the fact that more than 80 people chose to participate in the forum. “I was not super optimistic about getting the word out, so I think 82 was a robust nu mber,” he said. “A nd it went well. There was a lovely degree of human compassion, and enough participants to talk about their pain and be a community.” “The town/gown thing can sometimes get in the way,” he continued, referring to relations between the University and the municipality. “But here, that didn’t seem to be the case.” A few days before the business forum, the Arts Council of Princeton and the Princeton Senior Resource Center helped convene a similar meeting with executive directors of some of the town’s nonprofits. “COV ID -19 is a health crisis, but it is also an economic crisis,” Lempert said. “We need to be thinking now about how we can best support our local businesses and position ourselves as a community so that when we

Message to the Princeton Community from Mayor Liz Lempert

To the Editor: This has been another challenging and heartbreaking week. Your daily life has undoubtedly been upended by coronavirus, and you are likely making painful economic and personal sacrifices in the interest of public health. We know from the experience in other countries that staying at home and practicing social distancing will work. They are our best existing tools to slow the spread of this disease. “Flattening the curve” is necessary to give our first responders and medical care system the time they need to gear up to deal with the incoming volume of sick people, and to give our scientists the time, hopefully, to invent an effective treatment. The next few weeks are going to put our patience to the test. Everyone should prepare themselves for what the experts tell us is going to happen: even though we are at home, washing our hands, keeping our distance, watching our favorite businesses close, losing our jobs, not going to school or work, and not visiting with friends, the number of cases in Princeton is going to go up. The number of cases is likely to go up exponentially during this time. This is for a number of reasons: 1) more testing kits and testing facilities are coming online. More tests will produce more confirmed cases; 2) coronavirus is extremely contagious and has been spreading in our community. Recent research (www.nih.gov/news-events/ news-releases/new-coronavirus-stable-hours-surfaces) from a team of scientists including those at Princeton University has shown that the virus can live in the air and on surfaces for hours; and 3) the virus can lay dormant for up to two weeks before making you sick. We should not expect to see any evidence of our collective sacrifice until after more than two weeks of staying at home and practicing social distancing. We must have faith that our efforts are working even when we will not immediately be seeing results. While this pandemic is like nothing we’ve ever experienced as a country, like other challenges it has brought out the best in the Princeton community. I am especially thankful this week to our entire municipal team, our Health Department led by Jeff Grosser, our Board of Health led by George DiFerdinando, our first responder team led by Chief Sutter, the Princeton Public Library, especially the new Executive Director Jennifer Podolsky, Tim Quinn, and the entire team putting together the princetoncovid.org site, the front-line workers at our grocery and drug stores, and everyone who has stepped forward to help deliver food, run errands, and donate money and supplies. We are all in this together, and we will all pull through together. LIZ LEMPERT Mayor

To the Editor: As we honored Albert Einstein on his birthday recently, let us remember his commitment and work as an activist for the rights of African Americans. He was also a friendly presence in our historically African American Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood at a time when Princeton still segregated its schools, restaurants, and other places of business. In 1937 when Marian Anderson, the worldrenowned opera star, performed at McCarter Theatre, she was refused a room at the Nassau Inn. Einstein invited her to stay with his family and they remained close friends. As early as 1931 Einstein was an advocate for racial justice, backing a campaign to defend the Scottsboro Boys, Alabama African American teenagers falsely accused of rape. In 1946 Einstein and Princeton native Paul Robeson, international performer and human rights activist, worked together on a federal anti-lynching campaign. Einstein continued to invite Robeson to Princeton, publicly supporting him through Robeson’s difficult blacklisted years. Einstein’s speech in 1946 at historically black college, Lincoln University, is known for his labeling racism as a “disease of white people.” As well he was a strong supporter of the NAACP and its founder W.E. B Dubois. Einstein’s willingness to be a character witness for Dubois after he was indicted by the government as a “foreign agent” influenced the judge to dismiss the case. In January 1946, Einstein published an essay, “The Negro Question,” in Pageant magazine. Here is an excerpt from that essay: “There is, however, a somber point in the social outlook of Americans. Their sense of equality and human dignity is mainly limited to men of white skins. Even among these there are prejudices of which I as a Jew am clearly conscious; but they are unimportant in comparison with the attitude of the “Whites” toward their fellow-citizens of darker complexion, particularly toward Negroes… I can escape the feeling of complicity in it only by speaking out…Your ancestors dragged these black people from their homes by force; and in the white man’s quest for wealth and an easy life they have been ruthlessly suppressed and exploited, degraded into slavery. The modern prejudice against Negroes is the result of the desire to maintain this unworthy condition.” This excerpt and the other above details about Einstein’s activism are from: www.livescience.com/50051-alberteinstein-civil-rights.html. Another resource for exploring Einstein’s racial justice work as well as his close relationships with members of Princeton’s African American community is Fred Jerome and Rodger Taylor’s book Einstein on Race and Racism. These relationships are also revealed in Kathryn

In Time of Crisis, Concern Should Be For Community, Not Ourselves

To the Editor: In an earlier crisis, FDR said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” How disappointing and sad it is to walk through a supermarket and realize the extent of hoarding, when we should be concerned instead about the welfare of our entire community and not ourselves.

Supporting Mark Freda to Ensure Competence, Compassion, Communication

To the Editor: In a time that is unlike any other in my 68 years of age (and 17 of those years living in Princeton), conversations with friends and neighbors turn again and again to the subject of leadership. I’m grateful for the leadership of our current elected officials, and I support strongly the bid of Mark Freda to succeed Liz Lempert as mayor of Princeton. My family and I have known Mark for close to a decade, but in a nonpolitical context. Our acquaintance came about because of our joint involvement in aiding a family in crisis. His willingness to give of his time and expertise impressed me, but his integrity and judgment made me especially glad to have the opportunity to work with him in some small way. Since those first meetings, I have followed the other work that Mark has done for Princeton, which is partly documented, but also partly behind the scenes conducted in a self-effacing manner. That latter aspect is characteristic of Mark and reminds me of the old saying that a person may do an immense deal of good, if they do not care who gets the credit for it. At this time, local politics may not be at the forefront of our concerns, but supporting Mark Freda to be the next mayor of Princeton is a way of ensuring again that at times like this our elected officials are competent, compassionate, and communicative.

Fraga Works “Tirelessly to Address Issues of Social Inequity” in Society

To the Editor: We write in strong support of the candidacy of Leticia Fraga for Princeton Council. As a member of Council Leticia has worked tirelessly to address issues of social inequity that exist in our society, including in our town. She has worked on behalf of providing a quality public education for the children of Princeton and for housing that is affordable for all economic levels of our society, including seniors who want to age in place. Leticia’s voice has been an important one on issues of civil rights and the status of Princeton as a welcoming community. Her experience leads her to recognize the need for a vibrant downtown, and she leads the municipality’s Economic Development Committee. We ask you to join us in supporting the leadership and unique voice of Leticia Fraga for Princeton Council. RUTH AND BERNIE MILLER Governors Lane

Suggesting a Property Tax Cut To Aid Princeton Residents

To the Editor: Now that governments have imposed total shutdowns to slow the COVID-19 virus infection rate, let us pray that we will have bought enough time for our health care system. But the economic consequence to the country may well be apocalyptic. The Federal government is racing to fund a rescue package up to $4 trillion. That amount may equal 30 percent of the GDP! But even at that amount the Feds can’t do it all. What can we do for ourselves at the local level? The biggest pending liquidity squeeze to all Princeton residents at this critical moment is our forthcoming quarterly property tax payments. Princeton municipality should immediately declare a 25 percent across-the-board reduction on all property tax payments until further notice. Assuming an average quarterly payment of $4,000, a 25 percent payment reduction would keep $1,000 in the hands of each resident. What a support that would provide to Princeton’s suddenly jobless families, fixed income seniors, and landlords. The Princeton Council should take this up immediately, as urgently as Congress is trying to pass its massive relief package and the governor is issuing his emergency executive orders.

Extending Thanks to Public Works Department for New Signs, Rail

To the Editor: At the last two monthly meetings of the Princeton Bicycle Advisory Committee, I brought up the need for some missing street signs and a guide rail to be installed. Those signs mentioned were: a four-way intersection sign on Jefferson Road going downhill before the Terhune Road intersection; a stop ahead sign on Herrontown Road going towards River Road; a three-way intersection sign on Mt. Lucas Road going north before Poor Farm Road; replace the three-way intersection sign that mysteriously disappeared on Mt. Lucas Road going south before Poor Farm Road; a guide rail on Mt. Lucas Road going north between Campbell Woods and Poor Farm to prevent drivers and cyclists from landing in the ditch; and perhaps a controversial sign — a no left turn sign from Ewing Street onto State

Road during rush hours. Town Engineer Deanna Stockton was able to help my, make that everyone’s, cause by addressing these concerns with the Department of Public Works (DPW). The first three signs mentioned were installed in less than two weeks! I feel overjoyed by the promptness of the DPW to my request. The term Vision Zero is now a part of everyday conversation among planers, engineers, police officers, and government officials. It refers to improving the conditions on the roads so that there will be less likelihood of accidents taking place instead of trying to change the behavior of the drivers. When the road conditions improve, there will be less likelihood of drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians being the victims of accidents. Now if only NJDOT would support the recommendations of Ms. Stockton and Montgomery’s engineer to fix the intersection of Route 206 at Cherry Valley Road/Princeton Avenue. Accidents are not inevitable unless no steps to improve road conditions are taken. The DPW understands what I am talking about and I want to thank them again for proceeding so rapidly to remedy the problems referred to. I want to encourage your readership to contact Town Hall if you either agree that the other actions requested are needed to improve public safety, or you know about situations that I am unaware of that need remediation.

Ways to Support Local Businesses, Nonprofits That Are Temporarily Shut Down

To the Editor: In addition to all the other worries on my mind right now about COVID-19, I’m worried about the local businesses and nonprofits in town that have had to temporarily shut down due to the outbreak. I was pleasantly surprised to find that there are easy ways to help support them, even while practicing social distancing. Many restaurants are offering curbside pickup, more local retailers than you might think have online ordering, and local nonprofits make it easy to donate or get a membership online. My wife and I decided to commit to make at least three purchases from a local business or nonprofit every week until COVID-19 is under control and stores can reopen again. If we all do the same, we can help keep Princeton’s small businesses and nonprofits going through this crisis. So far, we’ve renewed our Garden Theatre memberships, placed online orders from Labyrinth and Small World Coffee, and we’re planning to get Friday night takeout from a local restaurant. Here are some ideas: Curbside pickup for one or two meals a week - not just sit-down restaurants, but also casual restaurants that might depend on foot traffic from downtown workers who are currently at home. Getting a nice takeout meal is also a nice change of pace from the sometimes monotonous life at home. Online donations and memberships to nonprofits like the Garden Theatre, McCarter, ACP, etc. If you’re having trouble getting staples at the grocery store, order coffee beans and ground coffee from Small World Coffee, or schedule a delivery of bread or pastries from Lillipies. If you’re cooking more at home and need kitchen supplies, order online from Miya and Kitchen Kapers. Order books from Labyrinth online or over the phone, if you’re looking for something to pass the time.

Buy gift cards from restaurants and shops you want to visit once the immediate danger has passed. Palmer Square’s website has a list of the creative options that their tenants are offering right now, like pickup from The Bent Spoon’s back door, or stores that support online or phone ordering, etc. Committing to regularly help local organizations and businesses can be a way to take a positive action every day, and can reduce the stress, anxiety and fear we’re all feeling right now. The municipal government has also put together a list of businesses that are open: princetoncovid.org/whatsopen/list-of-whats-open/. Please join us in making this commitment! We will all get through this together. BILL ATKINS Mount Lucas Road

Book/Film REViEW

Social Distancing in “Babylon Berlin” and Sylvia Beach’s Paris

“M

eanwhile, here we are, with America hanging from a cliff that looms larger every day” — so ended a “Cliffhangers and Character” column about escaping into films and series television thrillers like Stranger Things, Ozark, and Babylon Berlin. That was in August 2018. At the time, after binge-watching the first two seasons of Netflix’s sensational German import about Berlin in its racy late-twenties, pre-Third-Reich heyday, I called it one of the best shows of the year. Now, when the whole world seems to be hanging from a cliff, my wife and I have just survived the recently released third season of Babylon Berlin. “Released?” — imagine a maddened bull charging out of the gate of the Weimar past. Grab it by the horns and off you go. As with the first two seasons, your bond with the show, your ballast, is a charismatic couple: the damaged, unrelenting Bogart-in-a-Trilbyhat police inspector Gereon Rath (Volker Bruch) and the spunky, savvy, charmingly undaunted Charlotte Ritter (Liv Lisa Fries), plus stunning visuals, epic musical sequences in arena-sized cabarets, and cliffhangers to die for, but nothing equals riding the bull of season three in the pandemic present. “It is a bit of a mess,” my shaken wife said as the season finale clawed, shrieked, howled, knifed, bled, drugged, and crossdressed itself to a close. Only something this outrageously improbable and fascinatingly visual could hold its own in times like these. As New York Magazine’s “Vulture” Kathryn VanArendonk says, “it’s the kind of show you get to the end of, and then desperately need to talk about with every single person you see for the next week.” Not much chance of that these days, at least not in person. But here we are. Given the current statewide stay-at-home and “non-essential” services decree, I’ve been asking myself what could possibly make a column on books and film and music “essential.” In the past decade, I’ve written about subjects ranging from Shakespeare and Chopin to Sandy Denny against the backdrop of emergencies personal, local, and worldwide, such as superstorms, floods, power outages, and terrorist events. If nothing else, living on the edge forces you to take stock of your purpose in life, what you do, what you give, what you take, what you need to survive, what’s essential and what isn’t. Writing these columns, it’s most often a question of sharing and celebrating something: saying read this book, see this series, listen to this music.

From Berlin to Paris For a must-see show like Babylon Berlin, you can go to Netflix or else to YouTube for a preview via the spectacular cabaret number, Zu Asche zu Staub (To Ash, To Dust). For the book I’m recommending, it’s not that easy. There’s a copy of Sylvia Beach’s Shakespeare and Company (Bison Books) in the library’s Princeton Collection, but the library’s closed. Plenty of copies are available online for anywhere from a few dollars to $200 for the original Harcourt and Brace edition (pictured here). Why this particular book at this particular time? For one thing, the author’s life has a profound everyday connection to the library. Her roots are in Princeton, between the cemetery, where she’s buried, and Sylvia Beach Way, the drive behind the library where until the recent past patrons dropped off books and parents dropped off and picked up their children. One of the charms of Charlotte in Babylon Berlin is her spirited pursuit of her dream to be the first woman detective on the Berlin police force. Sylvia Beach’s dream was to live in Paris and open a bookstore and lendi n g l i b r a r y. F i f te e n years ago this month, the main gallery at Firestone Library was transformed into a replica of Shakespeare and Company, with the Bard presiding over the exhibit as he presided over the actual bookshop at 12 Rue l’Odéon, its patron saint, his face on the signboard hanging in front. Hemingway’s Sylvia In A Moveable Feast, the better-known Paris memoir featured in last week’s column, Ernest Hemingway describes his first view of Shakespeare and Company, “a warm, cheerful place with a big stove in winter, tables and shelves of books” and “photographs of famous writers both dead and living. The photographs all looked like snapshots and even the dead writers looked as though they had really been alive.” He also offers this portrait of the owner: “Sylvia had a lively, sharply sculptured face, brown eyes that were as alive as a small animal’s and as gay as a young girl’s, and wavy brown hair that was brushed back from her fine forehead and cut thick below her ears and at the line of

the collar of the brown velvet jacket she wore. She had pretty legs and she was kind, cheerful, and interested, and loved to make jokes and gossip. No one that I ever knew was nicer to me.” Paris and Princeton Recalling the rue l’Odéon, Sylvia mentions a theater at the end of the street that reminded her of “Colonial houses in Princeton,” where her father was the minister of the First Presbyterian Church from 1906 to 1923. When she decided to turn her dream of a Paris bookshop into a reality, she sent the following cable home to her mother: “Opening bookshop in Paris. Please send money.” Her mother sent all her savings. Half a century ago, when I first read Shakespeare and Company, I had no interest in the author’s Princeton connection. My focus was on the relationship between Sylvia Beach and James Joyce, and her portrait of the author, surely one of the most accurate, and adoring, on record. Her courage in taking on a project as massively demanding as the publication of Ulysses still deserves to be celebrated by anyone who loves books and bookstores. So, in respect of the “we’re all in this together” in spite of social distancing idea, I’ll mention some highlights of the Princeton side of the story. In fact, the whole Beach family had moved to Princeton from Paris, where her father had taken them when Sylvia was 14. He’d been asked to take charge of Students’ Atelier Reunions in Montparnasse, to see that American students “came under home influence.” After “Father gave a sensible talk,” some of the “most brilliant singers of the time ... gave their services to this work.” Other performers included Pablo Casals and Loïe Fuller, a dancer whose reputation for spectacle reminded me of the excitement of the dancers in the crowd and on the stage in the cabaret scenes in Babylon Berlin. Beach makes the most of the contrast between “a stumpy, rather plain girl from Chicago wearing glasses, the schoolmarm type,” who came to the Atelier “not to dance but to talk about her dancing,” particularly regarding the lighting system. “She was

dancing at the Moulin Rouge at the time ... and making a sensation. When you saw her there, the stoutish woman you knew as Loïe Fuller was transformed. With two outstretched sticks, she manipulated five hundred metres of swirling stuff, flames enveloped her, and she was consumed. Finally, all that remained were a few ashes” — my cue for another plug for the “To Ash, To Dust” scene as a preview of Babylon Berlin. Au Chat Noir An amusing vignette of Paris night life surprising Princeton involves Sylvia’s beautiful sister Cyprian, who “couldn’t stroll around Paris without being pestered by some follower or other,” and was “immediately recognized by little boys as ‘Belles Mirettes,’ a character in a serial film called ‘Judex,’ shown in weekly episodes all over Paris.” It helps to know this detail to appreciate Beach’s anecdote about the hot Sunday morning at the First Presbyterian Church in Princeton when Cyprian sat down in the Beach family’s front pew and opened a large fan decorated with a black cat and the name of a famous cabaret in Paris, Au Chat Noir.” Library Place Given the location of Sylvia Beach Way, the most revealing detail in her account of Princeton (“with its trees and birds ... more a leafy, flowery park than a town”) comes after she notes that the family settled down in the Colonial parsonage on Library Place,” wondering, “Did the name influence my choice of a career in the book business?” Germans in Paris abylon Berlin has apparently been confirmed for a fourth season set in Berlin in 1933. Berlin came to Paris, in effect, with the German occupation. Though Shakespeare and Company eventually surfaced and survived after the war, the store was forced to “disappear” during the occupation. When Sylvia refused to sell a German officer a copy of James Joyce’s Finnegan’s Wake, he was furious and told her they were coming that same day to confiscate “everything.” With the help of friends, she took down all the photographs and carried them with the books in clothes baskets to a vacant apartment on the third floor. She even had a carpenter dismantle the shelves while a house painter painted out the name Shakespeare and Company. By the time the Germans came back there was nothing left to take. —Stuart Mitchner

� Phone number a group of affluent Trentonian women. In 1902, The Old Barracks Association (OBA) was founded entirely by women living in the Trenton area with the goal of preserving the historic structure. These women were from well-connected families and as such, were expected to be involved in the local community and pursue philanthropic projects. Despite their personal stories not always fitting the early 20th century ideal of womanhood, many of the founding members of the OBA were staunchly op posed to the idea of women having the right to vote. This exhibit aims to explore their story and reasons for supporting the anti-suffrage movement. The Old Barracks Museum invites everyone to visit barracks.org/whenwomenvote to learn more about the history of the anti-suffrage movement, the Old Barracks Association, and Trenton.

Zimmerli Art Museum Offers Virtual Tours

“During earlier periods of influenza and tuberculosis, parents entertained their children with craf ts and pantomimes if you recall the plays produced by the March sisters in Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women,” he said. “Today, digital technology allows us to do so much more. The Zimmerli Art Museum is pleased to provide lessons, craft activities, and pure visual enjoyment to all of our followers. We’re doing our part to help the community stay healthy in both body and mind.” For more information, visit zimmerlimuseum.rutgers.edu.

Responding to coronavirus quarantines nationwide, many museums are turning to technology to fill the void. Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers–New Brunswick is taking it a step further with online demonstrations to help keep children and adults productive during this period of uncertainty. Google Arts and Culture has partnered with more than 2,500 museums and galleries around the world to offer virtual tours of their spaces. Some of the options include New York’s Museum of Modern Art and Amsterdam’s Van Gogh Museum. “We shared a virtual tour of the “Everyday Soviet” exhibit on Instagram and

the response has been very positive,” said Amanda Potter, the Zimmerli’s art education curator. “We’re going to continue to share more exhibits this way, as well as permanent galleries, and we plan to post more frequently on all social media platforms to offer different ways that both adults and children can be productive and maybe even be introduced or dive deeper into art.” The staff at Zimmerli is sharing downloadable coloring pages from their permanent galleries so children whose schools have closed can share in some activities during this down time. At a time when more people are working remotely and schools are closing, there is an opportunity to provide art education in new ways,

staff so we’re doing this to supply ideas to families who need things to do and stay creative, but also to take care of those who freelance at Zimmerli so they can continue to do what they love virtually,” Potter said. Thomas Sokowlowski, director at the Zimmerli, said that besides helping to keep people from going stir-crazy, art can clear the mind. Just as thousands flocked to city parks during the late Victorian period to escape smoky conditions, the same is true — then and now — for museums, which provide zones of tranquility in harsh and troubling times.

look back at what Bob Ross, the late painter and TV host, did by sharing art demonstrations on television, so the community could follow along. Zimmerli’s tutorials will come from Nabila Dadabhoy, an MFA graduate from the Mason Gross School of the Arts, who will teach kids and adults at varying skill levels how to use materials found at home for art projects. They are also sharing content from other Rutgers artists, as well as outside artists, like Mo Willems, so children can follow along with activities. “If we remember what Bob Ross did, there has always been some form of art activity we could follow along and use our creativity to get through difficult times. This ZIMMERLI GOES VIRTUAL: The Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers–New Brunswick, currently closed is an opportunity to get children engaged, but it’s also a to the public, is now offering virtual tours and online demonstrations, along with downloadable way to take care of part-time coloring pages from their permanent galleries to help keep children occupied at home.

Princeton Speech-Language & Learning Center Helps Develop Communication and Social Skills

S

aying it plainly, expressing yourself clearly — in a word, communicating. The basis of our daily interaction with others, and the source of so many problems when it goes wrong.

IT’S NEW To Us

Helping those with speech, language, and learning disorders is the specialty of Princeton Speech-Language & Learning Center (PSLLC), newly located at 615 Executive Drive in Montgomery Commons. Founded in 1985 by Terri Rossman, it is now owned by Clinical Director Marcie C. Fountaine, M.S., CCC-SLP and Director of Business Operations Carole Drury. Both owners had worked with Terri Rossman, and, as Carole Drury points out, “Marcie and I really wanted to keep Terri’s vision alive.” PSLLC Vision That vision focuses on helping individuals of all ages (particularly children and young adults) develop essential speech, language, and social skills. “We specialize in comprehensive speech-language a n d p s ych o - e d u c at ion a l evaluations as well as social learning groups, executive function therapy, and individual and group speechlanguage therapy,” explains Drury. “Parents turn to PSLLC because research has shown that effective speech-language therapy and academic and psychological support at the right time can greatly improve a child’s chances of success in school and in life.” “While we provide a wide array of services, we often treat students with autism spectrum disorders, receptive and expressive language

delays, articulation difficulties, literacy weaknesses, and executive functioning difficulties,” adds Fountaine. To help clients, PSLLC offers a licensed staff of seven speech-language pathologists, a learning consultant, and a clinical psycholo gist, all of whom are highly trained with advanced or ter minal ( highest in the field) degrees. Whether clients are coping with delayed speech, a lisp or stutter, problems with understanding and communicating, difficulty with executive function (decisionmaking ), social thinking issues, or autism and other conditions, PSLLC offers a range of therapies to help students overcome these challenges. Extensive Evaluation A var iet y of met hods, techniques, and strategies are utilized, including group classes, individual therapy, and a range of computerbased learning programs. The focus for the youngest children often emphasizes play, such as learning vocabulary with toys. “We offer exceptional therapeutic interventions and extensive evaluation reports for students of all ages, with varying degrees of language, learning, and/or social-emotional challenges,” observes Fountaine. “Our social communication groups are highly sought after to provide students with the ability to navigate the often complex social world of today. Our clinicians are highly trained to utilize the social thinking curriculum established by Michelle Garcia Winner.” Clients, who are of ten referred by physicians or teachers, come to PSLLC from all over the area and beyond, and usually attend classes once or twice a week, determined by the situation. Sessions range from 30 to 60 minutes, de-

pending on age and severity of the disorder. The spacious new location offers a first floor setting for psychology, executive function, and social classes, and upstairs rooms for speech and language classes. “Duration of therapy depends on the severity of the communication disorder,” notes Fountaine. “Some students come for six months, and others may require our services for longer periods of time.” Both Drury and Fountaine are proud of the help PSLLC offers clients, and their success rate is very encouraging. Positive Connections “The entire staff at PSLLC stays up-to-date with current trends in therapy to provide the most effective, evidencebased therapeutic approaches,” says Fountaine. “The field of speech-language pathology is incredibly rewarding work. We build positive connections with families and provide services that enhance a child’s ability to express their thoughts and ideas and improve their ability to interact with peers.” Adds Drury, “We view our clients like family, and it is incredibly satisfying to witness their progress. I love the kids! When someone who has been non-verbal comes in and says, ‘Hi, Ms. Carole!,’ it makes me so happy. I love our clients and seeing them progress. And I love our staff. They are so dedicated to helping everyone.” Both owners look forward to expanding PSLLC’s innovative services and treatments to help even more people, and to continue to make an important difference in their lives. PSLLC is open Monday t h roug h T hu r s day 9 : 30 a.m. to 7 p.m. For further information, call (609) 9247080, and visit the website: www.psllcnj.com. —Jean Stratton

CLEAR COMMUNICATION: “We are very encouraged with our ability to help people. We really try to be as personal as we can be to reach every individual. Each person is very important to us. We don’t believe that the ‘one size fits all’ approach works, so we tailor our therapies to maximize each individual’s strengths to overcome his or her challenges.” Carole Drury, left, director of business operations, and Marcie C. Fountaine, M.S., CCC-SLP, clinical director of Princeton Speech-Language & Learning Center, look forward to helping more people improve their communication skills.

of all ages need consistency, says Dr. Sam Knee, a pediatric sleep specialist at The Children’s Hospital at Saint Peter’s University Hospital. Adults and kids can benefit from these tips for a better night’s sleep: go to bed at the same time every day; do not exercise too close to bedtime; do not eat a heavy meal at least two hours before sleep; limit screen time

Sleep is an important tool for managing life’s stressors in the age of coronavirus’ upended schedules. Studies already show that children and adults do not get enough sleep, especially restful sleep. They also point to the fact that a good night’s sleep is key to good health. Lack of sleep puts individuals at risk for conditions such as cardiac arrhythmias, diabetes, and stroke, and can make some irritable and forgetful. Sleep is essential for your mind and body. It keeps you alert and helps cement memories. It is thought to contribute to a healthy immune system and is also tied

Tiger Men’s Lax Showed Togetherness, Skill, Saddened as 5-0 Season Halted by COVID-19

F

or Matt Madalon, making a deep postseason run as a senior goalie with the Roanoke College men’s lacrosse team in 2006 stands as a highlight of his life. “I remember my senior spring; every day I think about it,” said Madalon. “I have a such a wonderful memory of making a Final Four run with my Roanoke buddies. We lost to Salisbury but I remember everything.” This spring, Princeton University men’s lacrosse head coach Madalon was hoping to see players enjoy a similar experience as the Tigers had started 5-0, beating perennial powers University of Virginia and Johns Hopkins on the way to getting ranked No. 3 nationally in the Inside Lacrosse media poll. So when the rest of the 2020 season was canceled earlier this month due to the COVID-19 outbreak and his players were deprived of seeing how far they could have gone this spring, Madalon felt their pain. “It was heartbreaking, there was a bunch of sobbing,” said Madalon, recalling the team meeting held after the announcement of the decision to cancel the rest of the campaign. “The guys were really sad and heartbroken. Guys weren’t sure how to feel, everyone was just so sad. It is just such an abrupt end; devastation, shock was most of it.” In reflecting on what his team accomplished before that abrupt end, Madalon was most proud of the togetherness exhibited by the players. “We were just really happy that we had the time to accomplish what we did; god forbid this happened a little while ago and we would not

have even been given the season and it would be a different story,” said Madalon. “What was so special for us and what we really wanted to try to bottle was the love for one another that our guys had. It was a team that truly enjoyed being together and hanging out together and spending all of their time together and working together. You work your tail off as a coach behind the scenes to hope that you get guys to develop that.” Before the Tigers even took the field to start regular season action, Madalon sensed something special about the 2020 squad. “We never got ourselves prepared physically, mentally to make that early run and I think that is what was so impressive about our group,” said Madalon. “We did things a little differently and our senior leadership really owned the offseason just a little differently. We have always had great senior classes but with this one as we worked our way through December and January, it just felt a little different.” Madalon won’t soon forget his Class of 2020. “The seniors are awesome, all of these guys are all great,” said Madalon, whose senior group included such battletested performers as Michael Sowers, Connor McCarthy, Arman Medghalchi, Phillip Robertson, Nick Bauer, Jon Levine, and David Sturtz. “These guys have played a lot of valuable minutes. I am heartbroken for those guys because for me it is so important to know when that last time you put on the jersey, even if it is in a conference semifinal game. You know if you win, you get one more but if you lose, you know it could be your last.

Even if you are 0-13 and it is the final regular season game, you know that it is your last. That is a hard pill for me to swallow for our seniors.” It is an especially hard pill to swallow for superstar attacker Sowers, the program’s all-time scoring leader with 302 points on 121 goals and 181 assists who had already tallied 47 points (16 goals, 31 assists) in 2020 to mark himself as a frontrunner for the Tewaaraton Award, given to the top player in college lacrosse. “Of course we are sad for him, but I can’t be more sad for him than I am for any of the other guys,” said Madalon. “He is such a good kid and he is such a great representation of a Princeton student athlete. He plays the right way, he lives his life the right way. He does the right things on the field, he does the right things off the field. That is what makes me sad. He brought our team together; he is obviously such a big person in the sport of lacrosse but it never felt like that in our locker room.” With the NCAA having announced that eligibility relief is appropriate for all Division I student-athletes who participated in spring sports, Madalon is hoping that Sowers and his classmates may get the chance to return to the field for Princeton.

“I feel for our sophomores, I feel for our juniors, I feel for all of these guys, and the freshmen only got five games,” said Madalon. “This is their life with their families from traveling around and putting all of this into it. There are a lot of people that want to see this through so there are a lot of folks that want to come back and finish their senior year. The Ivy League has to figure this out quickly — how they can help not only the seniors, but how they can help all of their student athletes maintain and have their true experience at Princeton. These kids didn’t come here to graduate in another jersey, they came here to graduate in orange and black.” While not being able to finish the 2020 season is painful, Madalon believes his players can gain some valuable perspective from having the game taken away from them. “We all wanted to see this year through and have them gain so much more experience,” said Madalon. “This experience alone will help you cherish things; there is so much to be learned and gained from this. I hope we don’t have harder times ahead. In terms of the foundational piece, it will go back to what the seniors did over December and January, showing the program how to work and how to prepare to put yourself in a position to be 5-0.” In the meantime, Madalon,

Youthful PU Women’s Lax Showed Growth Before Season Canceled Due to Coronavirus Featuring a number of freshmen and sophomores in its lineup, the Princeton University women’s lacrosse team experienced some ups and downs in the early stages of the 2020 campaign. But with Princeton sitting at 3-2 and heading in the right direction, its progress came to a halt when the season was canceled earlier this month due to the COVID-19 outbreak. For Princeton head coach Chris Sailer, it was agonizing to see her young squad not get the chance to keep growing. “You feel sick to your stomach, you feel so sorry, it is such an abrupt end for the team that is really just getting going,” said Sailer, whose team was ranked 15th nationally in the final Inside Lacrosse media poll. “We met with them as soon as we could get them all together the first day. Of course that was very emotional, a lot of tears and disbelief; just kids really distraught with all of them looking forward to this season and knowing that they weren’t going to get a chance to continue competing. I think that was the first emotion.” Although those emotions were strong, Sailer concurred with the reasoning behind the cancellation. “I totally agree with the decision that was made,” said Sailer. “It was hard that first day when we were the only Division I conference to cancel. You kind of knew that the dominoes were going to fall the more you read and learned about the situation. It is something that had to happen. It is a very serious situation and as disappointed as we are, we know that this is bigger than us. We have to do our part to help the community.” Sailer feels particularly sad for her quartet of seniors — Tess D’Orsi, Annie Cory, Maddie Staczek, and Katie

Reilly. “You are sorry for your seniors and everything that they have worked for,” said Sailer. “It is their last year, their last season, and their chance to go for their fourth straight Ivy championship, to have their Senior Day, turn in their theses, jump into the fountain, and do all of things in a senior spring. I felt tremendously sad for them.” While the program’s Class of 2020 won’t get to savor those spring traditions, they are leaving a special legacy. “They were just an amazing group of young women; they came in with their No. 1 goal to really create a familyoriented culture on the team and to work on that across all grades and classes,” said Sailer. “As bonded as Princeton teams have been in the past, I think that this group had something special and unique. Although we had some bumps early, we were growing because we were so, so young. We had played the full year without Tess, who had just been cleared [from injury] when we got the news the season was canceled.” The program’s youth movement figures to pay dividends down the road as the roster this spring included nine freshmen and nine sophomores. “We are definitely excited about the group we have coming back,” added Sailer. “There are a lot of young kids who got experience, whether that was in practice or game time. They are still going to be young next year and we have a great class coming in as well. It is exciting to think that we are going to continue to build that depth in our program over time. We feel like we do have a lot of young talent and the players who were juniors this year are a very strong group.” Although Princeton didn’t produce its strongest

Specialists

performance in what turned out to be its season finale as it fell 18-12 at No. 5 Stony Brook on March 8, digging a 7-0 hole in the early stages of the contest, Sailer sees positives coming out of that setback. “We are all leaving after the Stony Brook game knowing that we really didn’t play our best and let them take that game to us even though we fought until the end,” said Sailer. “That first seven minutes of the game are going to sting, they are going to sit with us. In some ways that is a good thing, it is a motivator for us to work and not take anything for granted and try to use the time away really productively in terms of lacrosse.” Sailer is confident that her players will be productive as they work from home. “They are athletes, they know how to stay fit,” said Sailer. “We want them to get stronger. That is one message we are sending them home with. We have to see how this all plays out but continuing to stay fit, strong, and work on their skills while they are away at home, that is pretty much a given. We do plan to stay in good touch with them and they will stay in good touch with each other, whether we are sending them videos to watch or giving them ideas of things they can be working on. We want to keep that connections as best we can.” As for Sailer, she plans to use the downtime to go outside the box in preparing for next season. “It is perplexing, coaching is a 24/7, 365-day job; you have a couple of weeks in the summer, a couple of weeks around the holidays but other than that, it is draining,” said Sailer. “It is a grind. This might give us all time for a little bit of a pause, more reflection, and to think about new ideas you have for your program.” —Bill Alden

Last week, versatile midfielder Currier was selected with the No. 1 pick of the Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) 2020 entry draft. Currier was chosen by the expansion Waterdogs of the PLL, a league that sees its franchises play in venues around the country as opposed to having a home city. The 2020 PLL season would be the second in the league’s history after a successful debut a year ago. The entry draft was for professional players who were not previously on PLL rosters. Currier, a 6’0, 180-pound native of Peterborough, Ontario, has played his entire outdoor professional career with the Denver Outlaws of Major League Lacrosse, and helped the Outlaws to an MLL title in 2018.

Sparked by Senior Zammit’s Skill, Leadership, PHS Girls’ Hockey Earned Some Memorable Wins While the Princeton High girls’ hockey team took its lumps this winter, it produced a game to remember in its finale. Playing in the consolation contest of the Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic (WIHLMA) Miran Division playoffs, PHS defeated Holton Arms (Md.) 3-1 on February 16 as senior star Victoria Zammit scored three goals and senior goalie Ella Chauder made 11 saves. “It was a good game; Victoria wanted to go out on a high note, she wanted to get those goals,” said Tiger head coach Christian Herzog, whose team posted a final record of 4-14. “The girls were very excited.” With PHS having gone winless in the 2018-19 season, Herzog was excited by the fighting spirit he saw from his players this winter. “They don’t take an excuse, it is let’s be relentless,” said Herzog, whose team defeated Holton Arms twice on

the season and also earned wins over Randolph High and Newark East Side. “We are down four goals, we have to be relentless.” Senior captain Zammit’s relentless play and inspirational leadership set the tone as she tallied 45 points on 34 goals and 11 assists this winter on the way to earning First-Team All-Miran honors. “She is a Type A personality; it is I have got to get this, I have got to get that,” said Herzog of Zammit, who also made the WIHLMA AllAcademic Team, was selected as the PHS team MVP, and ended her high school career with 158 points (112 goals, 46 assists). “I have got to put it all on my shoulders, which is why she wears the ‘C’ on her chest. Honestly, she is the best captain I have ever had as far as leadership, especially in those games like Randolph and East Side. She doesn’t need to get nine goals against those teams; to me

VICTOR VICTORIA: Princeton High girls’ hockey player Victoria Zammit brings the puck up the ice in a game this past winter. Senior star Zammit ended her PHS career on a high note, scoring three goals as the Tigers defeated Holton Arms (Md.) 3-1 in a consolation contest of the Women’s Interscholastic Hockey League of the Mid-Atlantic (WIHLMA) Miran Division playoffs. Zammit tallied 45 points on 34 goals and 11 assists this winter as she earned First-Team All-Miran honors and was named team MVP.

that shows her level of character.” Goalie Chauder showed character as she took up the challenging position as a freshman and ended up making 1,135 career saves with a save percentage of .756. “Four years ago we had no goalie and this girl had zero experience as far as goalie,” said Herzog, noting that Chauder made 202 saves this winter with a save percentage of .774. “She had zero experience in ice hockey, other than saying her dad was from Canada. She was definitely a personality; I am glad that she stuck through.” The calming personality of senior Lydia Cohen helped keep PHS on an even keel. “Cohen was an assistant captain, she is a voice of reason,” said Herzog of Cohen, who was the team’s recipient of the league’s Harry RulonMiller Sportsmanship Award. “She is all smiles all of the time and is consistently there. She doesn’t miss a beat as far as practice. She is dedicated.” Showing dedication, two other seniors, Morgan Swanke and Grace Cooke, made an impact in their final campaign with the program. “Swanke came on strong at the end,” said Herzog. “Against East Side, Victoria wins the face-off, goes to Swanke and boom she put it right in. She also got a goal after that. Our Captains’ Award went to Grace.” Herzog believes he has a strong foundation in place with a core of young performers. “I have like 10, 11 sophomores and I had one freshman in Catie Samaan,” said Herzog, pointing out that sophomore newcomer goalie Jadie Tome got the team’s Rookie of the Year Award, sophomore Emma Traylor was named as the Most Improved Player, and junior Olivia Benevento earned the Head, Heart, Hustle award. “I like where I am at, I would like to draw in some more talent.” With the program having a history of welcoming a range of skill levels, Herzog focuses on pushing his players to get the most of their talent. “I always feel like I have to be the guy to say ‘girls, it is all right. I am not going to yell at you for falling. But if you are not willing to try, now I have a problem,’” said Herzog. “They have always aspired to that kind of attitude.” —Bill Alden

HiTOPS has sent a letter to participants in their annual half marathon saying that the 2020 race, which is scheduled for October 25, remains on the schedule. “As a runner myself, I share your feeling of loss, having trained through the winter for a spring season that has now been canceled,” wrote Courtney Newman. “As the race director of the most important fundraising event of the year for HiTOPS, I share your concern for the many important nonprofits that rely on races and us runners to generate essential income.

I want to assure you that, at this time, we are full steam ahead for the 2020 HiTOPS Princeton Half Marathon.” In the event that the race is canceled, all participants will be provided the option to complete it as a virtual participant or defer to the 2021 event. “It is my hope that you will join us in registering for the 2020 HiTOPS Princeton Half today,” the letter continues. “The revenue that we, runners, bring to HiTOPS in the months leading up to the race is critical to the services that HiTOPS provides for youth. The funds allow them to foster strong and healthy young people of all identities by providing inclusive and youth-informed sex education and LGBTQ+ support throughout New Jersey. This support is now happening virtually and is more important than ever as some of our most vulnerable have never been so isolated.” The letter concludes, “To end on a positive note, how about all those people sharing our running routes because their gyms are closed? I can’t help but hope that good to come out of bad is that our community of runners will grow exponentially. Please join me in sharing about the HiTOPS Princeton Half with our new friends. Let’s invite them to join us in having a goal and something to look forward to.” For more information, visit hitops.org.

Joy Louise Wagner Saville Joy Louise Wagner Savi l l e , 8 3, b e l ov e d w i fe , mother, grandmother, and friend, died Tuesday, March 10, 2020 in Skillman, NJ. The cause was progressive supranuclear palsy. Joy was born September 10, 1936, to the late Benjamin William Wagner and Jennie Louise Oltman Wagner in Clatonia, Nebraska. Though she trained as a nurse at Lincoln General Hospital in the 1950s, it was through fine art and textiles

that she found her life’s true expression beginning in the early 1970s. Joy produced a body of work comprising dozens of abstract expressionist textile ar t works with roots in quilting and the patterns and techniques of Seminole patchwork. Her art was the subject of many solo and group exhibitions around the world, and pieces can be seen in the permanent collections of the International Quilt Study Center & Museum in Lincoln, Ne-

feelings of connection, interaction, and recognition that happen in the moments when time stands still, moments that often occur when I am focused on my work; I am centered, but very much aware, as if in meditation. The energy of this stillness encircles me. It is this contradiction between the quietness of the moment and my awareness of the change implied by the existence of the moment, that fuels the creation of the work.” Joy was a dedicated member of NOHO Gallery in Manhattan, Friends of Fiber Art International, Surface Design Association, and the Textile Study Group of New York. She enjoyed the rewards and challenges of a robust cohort of visual artists, with whom she enjoyed great friendship and camaraderie. In addition to making art, she enjoyed teaching creative processes and her craft. Joy was the youngest of five children, Junior Donald (1928-2011), Robert Dale “Bob” (1930-2011), Janice Margery Ann (b. 1931), and Roland Gene (1933-2018). Joy’s parents owned one of two grocery stores in town. In 1943, the Wagner family moved to Lincoln where Ben began work with Gamble and Robinson, a fruit and vegetable company. Joy attended primary through high school in Lincoln. She was very involved in music, was the Lincoln High School drum majorette and sang in the Lincoln High School Women’s Octet. Joy attended the University of Nebraska for one year and then went to nursing school at Lincoln General Hospital where she graduated in

1957. She was a member of Alpha Chi Omega. Joy remained lifelong friends with her childhood neighbors, school friends, and nursing school friends. Joy met Dudley Albert S av i l le (1933 –20 0 6 ) i n 1958. They were married March 7, 1959, in Lincoln, Nebraska, and moved to California where Dudley worked for Standard Oil Company, then to Ann Arbor, Michigan, where their first child, Dudley Alexander (Alex) was born in 1964. At this time, Joy was an assistant head nurse in the adolescent psychiatric ward at the University of Michigan Hospital. They returned to California in 1965, where their second child, Andrea Louise, was born in 1967 in San Rafael. In 1968, Dudley was hired by Princeton University to teach in the Department of Chemical Engineering. Joy worked as a registered nurse at the Princeton Medical Center in the coronary care unit until she began working as an artist. She was a devoted member of Nassau Presby-

terian Church in Princeton, where she found a spiritual community and an extended family that nurtured her throughout her life. Joy was predeceased by her husband of 47 years, Dudley, and her brothers Don Wagner, Bob Wagner, and Roland Wagner. She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Alex and Amy Saville, of Highland Park, New Jersey; and their sons, Liam and Graham; her daughter and son-in-law, Andrea and Stephen White, of Great Barrington, Massachusetts, and their son, Aidan; her sister, Janice West of Centerville, Ohio.; and many loved nieces and nephews. A memor ial ser v ice is scheduled for 11 a.m. Saturday, July 18, 2020, at Nassau Presbyterian Church, 61 Nassau Street, Princeton, New Jersey. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to: CurePSP 1216 Broadway, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10001; (443) 578 -5670 ; ht tps ://w w w. psp.org.

braska; the American Craft Museum in New York; and T he Newark Museum in Newark, New Jersey; among other private personal and corporate collections. Joy began creating textile art in the early 1970s when she left her nursing career after deciding not to return to school to become a doctor. As a young girl, she had watched her mother sew all of her children’s clothes. Her mother used to make suits for Joy and Joy’s sister, Janice, by using a suit their brot hers had outg row n, transferring the buttons to the left side, and using the trousers to make a skirt. Joy made her first dress at age seven and a half. In 1975, after attending a workshop on Seminole patchwork, Joy began sewing and piecing fabric together. Years later, she recounted a moment of great inspiration: “I was working in my studio one day trying to decide what I could do with this technique and my young daughter, Andrea, suggested ‘Why don’t you just keep cutting it up?’” This brought a new discovery and dimension to Joy’s work. She developed her own creative system of color and pattern which became her trademark. Joy’s work embodied her attempts, as noted in the book Contemporary Quilt Art by Kate Lenkowsky, “to capture and convey abstractly and through color the sensations evoked by encounters w it h nat ure. The surfaces are from a multitude of tiny patches of silk, cotton, and linen that ‘shimmer like brushstrokes in an Impressionist painting.’ ” In 2013, she wrote that “My work expresses

Obituaries Continued from Preceding Page

Robert Aresty Robert Aresty, 79, of Princeton, NJ, passed away on March 21, 2020 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. Robert, known to many as Bob, Spike, and “Unkie” was born in 1940 in Chicago to Julian and Esther Aresty, and grew up in Trenton, NJ. He was a proud graduate of the Lawrenceville School and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, where he endowed the Aresty Scholars program to provide financial support for undergraduates, and was a member of the Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity. He was the founder and president of Solar Energy Corp., known as Solec, a pioneering manufacturer of energy-efficient building materials based in Ewing, NJ. Active in national solar energy organizations, he was a passionate advocate for energy efficiency. Robert is survived by his partner Aleta Wolfe of Garrison, NY, and her daughter, Sophia Ryzy-Ryski; sister Jane Silverman of Princeton; nephew Jake Silverman (Katie) of New York; niece Rachel Robinson (Alex) of Austin, TX; niece Sarah Blaugrund (Jeff),

of Alford, MA; seven grandnieces and nephews; and many cousins, friends and co-workers. Robert loved spending time at his house and on his boat in Loveladies on the Jersey Shore, driving Corvettes, skiing, and reading Barron’s, among many passions. He loved his monthly opera subscription and his dinners and parties at the Institute for Advanced Study. He was a devoted member of his weekly breakfast club which met at a bagel shop in Lawrenceville. In the words of his close cousin Neil Aresty, “Robert had a zest for life, was stubborn as a mule and yet, at times, as sentimental as anyone I’ve ever known. May his memory be for a blessing.” He had a wide circle of friends from many walks of life and took pleasure in mentoring and advising his family members, his interns, and many others. Because of coronavirus restrictions, Robert will be laid to rest at a private graveside service. A Memorial Service will be planned for a later date.

Herbert W. Bilsky Herbert W. Bilsky, 97, of Lawrenceville, passed away on March 16, 2020 after a long and rewarding life. Born in New York City to Samuel and Esther Bilsky, he spent his early years growing up in the Bronx. He served proudly in the U.S. Army during World War II in the Pacific. He attended City College of New York and attained a master’s degree in mechanical engineering from Columbia University following the war. Early in his career Herb invented the first re-chargeable

battery while working for Sonotone. In the early 1960s he moved his family from Mount Vernon, NY, to Lawrenceville and continued his professional career in engineering at RCA and GE/Lockheed in Hightstown. While there he worked on many groundbreaking aerospace projects including the first satellites which provide us today with communications and weather forecasting, several deep space missions, and the Mars explorers. Previously Herb had worked for Culter Hammer. Many aspects of his technical contributions to the aerospace industry are documented in the Princeton University Library collections. He shall be remembered for these professional accomplishments, his famous signature moustache, his dry wit, and his fierce independence. Herb was also a devoted fan of the NY Yankees and NY Giants. He is predeceased by his parents, his wife Barbara (Eisenberg), his sister Hilda (Siegel), and brother Norman. He leaves his beloved children Steven, and Joan (Williams), his grandchildren John Williams, David and Daniel Bilsky, and greatgrandson, Liam Williams. Due to coronavirus precautions, funeral services were held privately on Wednesday, March 18 at Riverside Cemetery in Saddle Brook, NJ. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (TASK) or a charity of your choice. Funeral arrangements are by Orland’s Ewing Memorial Chapel. To leave condolences for the family visit orlandsmemorialchapel.com.
