Joanne and Bill
Henneberger
Celebrate 60
Years of Marriage !
Written by Rhonda Singer
I couldnt help but notice Bill and
Joanne as they entered the Senior
Center to attend EGO Clubs
Christmas Party on Monday evening,
December 17th. Joanne was stunning
in her ivory satin Wedding Gown, the
same dress she wore on their wedding
day 60 years ago (pictured above),
and still fits her perfectly! And Bill, so
handsome, escorting her in his elegant
tucks! What is the secret to keeping
you two together for so many years , I
asked. The reply came quickly from
both, each speaking of the other with
endearing affirmation, I am still in love
with him and I with her. He is a
wonderful man, and she is a wonderful
woman. Bill added, We are a very
close family and always have been.

Joanne
and I do everything together, and also
with our two sons, Bill III and Todd,
now in their 50s. They are proud of
their children and their families, two
grandchildren, and also two great
grandchildren. In fact, their sons and
daughter-in-laws had a beautiful
anniversary party for them at the
Ramada Inn, Fireside in Hagerstown,
and their eight-year old great
grandson, Louie, played the violin for
the guests. His last song was The
Anniversary Song . He practiced all
summer so that it would be a special
tribute to his great grandparents!
Bill graduated from Dickinson College
in Pennsylvania, and he spent 38 years
in management for Woolworth
Department Store. Joanne graduated
from Harrisburg School of Nursing, and
is now retired, after working in several
different hospitals in the region over
the years.
She and Bill really enjoy the water, and
spent many years boating, swimming,
and water skiing on the Chesapeake
Bay. In fact, Bill water skied until the
age of 75! Joanne said she gave it up
just a little sooner. However, they now
reside on the Potomac River, in a
beautiful river front property, and still
enjoy swimming every day possible.
The couple are honorary members of
the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary,
members of the Bedington Methodist
Church, and have been attending EGO
(Enjoy Growing Older) for about 15
years now. They really enjoy the
fellowship and friendships they have
made.
Bill is also a talented musician. He
played the saxophone professionally
back in his college years, and has
entertained the EGO Club on occasion
too. He said he has a large repertoire
of songs, but plays no tunes written
after 1948.
What a delight they are together and it
was certainly an honor to visit with
them and experience their positive
spirit of enthusiasm and zest for life!
Happy 60th Anniversary to the
Hennebergers and wishing
you many more!

BSS receives $10,000 gift
Rob Abruzzino, Finance and Facility Manager at Berkeley
Senior Services, accepts a $10,000 check from Anne Kyker, the
niece of the late Charlotte Butts, from her aunts estate.
Although Charlotte never utilized any services from the Senior
Center, she worked as a nurse at the VA Medical Hospital taking
care of patients for more than 35 years. She truly understood the
importance of seniors having support and assistance when
needed.
Anne explained that as Charlottes health began to deteriorate
the hardest obstacle her loved one faced was getting to and from
medical appointments and running her errands. Her family
decided the best place the money could be utilized was with the
Transportation and Senior Support Departments. Her niece
commented she just wanted to give her money and have it used
in a wise way. Anne also commented, friends and family often
used her (Charlottes) car to take her where she needed to go
and that they hoped her money would help seniors in our
community.
If you would like more information on how to give to Berkeley
Senior Services, or would like to volunteer, please contact Amy
Orndoff at 304-263-8873 Ext. 130.

up for lunch before 9:30 am.

Eat Protein -
Preserve Your
Muscles!
The average American needs 10-35% of
total calories, or about 50-100 grams of
protein per day. A rule to calculate
protein requirements is 0.8 g of protein
per kilogram of body weight or about 64
g of protein for a 175 pound person.
Recent research suggests that a slightly
higher amount of protein (1-1.5 g/kg of
body weight) may be beneficial for older
adults, in whom the bodys muscle mass
begins to be depleted slowly over time.
This may be due to both physical
inactivity and consuming inadequate
amounts of protein. Protein helps
muscles to maintain strength and
integrity.
The typical American tends to consume
most of the daily protein at dinner and
less for breakfast and lunch. Recent
research suggests that the timing of
protein may be a key for maintaining
muscle mass in older adults. New
recommendations from the National
Dairy Council suggest consuming 30g of
protein at every meal.
Not only does the quantity of protein
matter, but so does the quality of protein.
Whey protein, or the protein found in
dairy products, may be especially helpful
in promoting muscle protein synthesis in
older adults.
Low-fat milk, cheese, and yogurt are
good sources of whey. Whey is
beneficial to older adults because it is an
abundant source of the branched chain
amino acid, leucine.

Celebrating 17 Years!
Supporting Families in Adult Caregiving
bssads1@berkeleyseniorservices.org
Program Manager:
Kathy McIntyre, BSW, LSW (15+) Ext. 114
Activities Coordinator:
Katherine Donovan (5+) Ext. 118
Activities Assistants:
Dale Bradfield (10+), Jackie Galbraith, Deana Keplinger (5+),

Gloria Simmons, and Kathleen Teter.
Adult Day Services provides family caregivers with respite
(a break from the constancy of care attention to rest, take
care of errands, or do what they need to refuel their physical
and emotional energies).
While they do so, their assisted adult loved one receives
safe, supervised assistance with activities they enjoy as well,
and personal care if needed. They can join the congregate
program at the Senior Center or we can come to them at
home.
Family caregivers also are provided with free information
and referral services, care counseling and support groups,
and educational trainings.
A caregiver resource library of books, videos, and
computer access is provided as well as a modest lending
closet of durable supplies.
Our trained and experienced team of staff and volunteers
are dedicated to providing care and assistance as they would
their own family member, many of whom have been or are
family caregivers themselves.
Theres a little known ritual we have during our monthly
staff meeting. On occasion, when a person we have cared
for passes away, we light a candle during the meeting and
share our memories of that participant as a way of putting
closure to our experience and to honor the one for whom we
cared (both physically and emotionally).
If you are a family caregiver who needs a bit of a break in
caregiving each month or each week, or if you would like
your assisted loved one to benefit from meaningful activities
and socialization, give us a call or stop by for more
information.
Dear Mrs. McIntyre,
My 92 year old mother, Evelyn Butts, has been attending
Adult Day Services for the last several months. She loves
coming and I enjoy bringing her. As her caregiver, I
appreciate the respite time, and of course, its so gratifying to
see Mother make new friends, enjoy the wonderful staff,
volunteers and the variety of ADS activities. As a relatively
new caregiver, I enjoy the ADS library and the many classes
you continue to offer.
Honestly, I cannot say enough about the wonderful ADS
Program. All the staff and volunteers are extremely friendly,
very professional and so compassionate. As the Program
Manager, you are to be commended.
Berkeley County is very fortunate to have the Senior
Center and the many services provided area seniors.
THANK YOU so very much!!!
Sincerely yours,
Barbara Horner

LIVING TO THE AGE OF 96! By Mary Murphy
I have lived to be 96. I have had a good life
and God has blessed me in so many ways. In
1936, I married the man of my dreams,
Vincent Miller. We were together for 42 years
before he passed away. We had two sons,
seven grandchildren, eight great-
grandchildren, eight great-great-grandchildren,
and I am about to receive the first child of my
fifth generation, a baby boy.
I was born in 1916. Woodrow Wilson was
President. I have seen seventeen presidents
come and go. I feel that it is a privilege to still
be able to walk into a polling place and cast
my vote to be counted!
I still do my own housework, but it seems to
take longer now because I have to stop
between chores to take a break. When I can
get up in the morning, set my feet on the floor,
and prepare myself a cup of coffee, I know it
will be a good day. I have collected many
friends along the way, and I enjoy keeping in
touch with them. I am blessed to have good
neighbors.
I have a sister, Wilma Seyse, who lives in a
nursing home in Blacksburg, Virginia. This
past July, I had the opportunity to spend a
couple of days with her when she celebrated
her 100th birthday! We talked about how we
would cut out paper dolls, and how we would
make our own Christmas trimmings because
we didnt have enough money to buy them.
We laughed about how we were known as the
original coal-miners daughters. When Wilma
was interviewed by a reporter about turning
100, she told him she wants to stick around to
see her baby sister (me) turn 100 too! Good
thinking!
When I retired from Corning, I married
Bernard Murphy who I had known since we
attended grade school together at Mingo
School. Since both of us were retired, we did
a lot of traveling. We took a cruise to
Bermuda for our honeymoon. Since then we
have taken many bus trips through many of
the United States, including the state of
Alaska. I have also visited several European
countries, the Philippine Islands, and Australia.
It was interesting to see the many sites and
learn about the many cultures. I have made a
scrapbook of each trip Ive taken. Someday
when I get old, Ill sit down to look at them
and recall the many beautiful memories.
For now, I want to enjoy Mother Nature
while I can before Father Time takes it
away. Mary Murphy
Julie Andrews
Special Birthday
Tribute
To commemorate her birthday, actress/
vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special
appearance at Manhattans Radio City
Music Hall for the benefit of the AARP.
One of the musical numbers she
performed was My Favorite Things
from the legendary movie Sound of
Music. Ms. Andrews received a
standing ovation from the crowd that
lasted over four minutes and repeated
encores. Here are the lyrics she used:
(Sing it!)
Maalox and nose drops and needles for
knitting,
Walkers and handrails and new dental
fittings,
Bundles of magazines tied up in string,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Cadillacs and cataracts, and hearing aids
and glasses,
Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in
glasses,
Pacemakers, golf cars and porches with
swings,
When the pipes leak,
When the bones creak,
When the knees go bad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I dont feel so bad.
Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for
bunions,
No spicy hot food or food cooked with
onions,
Bathrobes and heating pads and hot
meals they bring,
Back pain, confused brains and no need
for sinnin,
Thin bones and fractures and hair that is
thinnin,
And we wont mention our short
shrunken frames,
When we remember our favorite things.
When the joints ache,
When the hips break,
When the eyes grow dim,
Then I remember the great life Ive had,
And then I dont feel so bad.
Enjoy a meal with us

Those Days and These Days
By Donald G. Raney
Good Morning. Hey, Ive
got a Song in My Heart.
Remember that old song? Have the lyrics of
some old song from the past got stuck in your
mind and you found yourself humming or
singing bits and pieces for days on end? How
about, That Old Black Magic? Or maybe,
Red Roses for a Blue Lady, or a favorite
from WW11, Dont Sit Under the Apple
Tree?
I Had a Song in My Heart last
month that had me humming for a week. The
song was, Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That
Cigarette . You may ask. What brought that
on? So glad you asked. I was at my
neighborhood grocery store standing in the
express lane with a box of Cheerios. I was
kind of day dreaming until I heard the register
clerk ask the lady in front of me for over
$250.00. Whoa! That woke me up. How
could one small plastic bag of groceries cost
so much? So, being of a curious (nosey)
nature I asked the clerk, What in the world
could one buy in the express lane that would
cost so much?
Without batting an eye, she replied
that the bag contained four cartons of
cigarettes. I was aghast. That was over fifty
bucks a carton. I was stunned--fifty bucks for
one carton of smokies! You folks that read
these articles on a regular basis know that I
live in a time warp. In my mind I was still
back in Those Days when I was working at
Stripers Grocery and we sold a pack of
Lucky Strikes or Chesterfields for a dime or
fifteen cents. Youre probably thinking,
Where have you been living, under a rock?
Not really, but smoking cigarettes isnt a large
part of my life.
This little episode brought Smoke,
Smoke, Smoke That Cigarette to mind and I
began to reminisce about Those Days. For
starters, most men smoked in Those Days.
The men generally stopped by the store to
pick up milk and bread before going home.
For whatever reason, the men ditched their
cigs outside on the ground. Except if the butt
was fairly long, and then it would be snuffed
out and tucked away in a pocket to be smoked
later on.
Now, good folks, if you are one of the
super sanitary persons of todays society, you
may want to skip over the next few paragraphs.
But, in Those Days, dirt existed. Anyhow, a
fairly large group of kids got on the school bus
at the store. The cigarette butts that the men
tossed on the ground were fair game for the
older boys. When I say, Older Boys, these
were still kids, seventh and eighth graders.
These older boys would scrounge
around for the longest and most promising butts
that were on the ground. Finding a v-shaped
twig to hold the butt, they would light it up and
pass it around so all could get a few puffs. If
the butt was fairly short, they would use a safety
pin to hold it and generously share it with their
buddies. We younger kids would stand around
in awe as they puffed away. The girls would
turn their heads and pretend this wasnt really
happening. How could anyone pick up a butt
from the ground and smoke it? Ugh!
We all experimented with smoking at
one time or another. But, there was no smoking
allowed at our house--period. To smoke, or
even smell like smoke, brought punishment that
was swift, sure, and severe. We were
admonished over and over that smoking stunted
your growth. Smoking turned your teeth black
and they fell out. Smoking turned your fingers
yellow, and horror of horrors, smoking gave you
consumption (whatever that was), and you died
a horrible death. For me that settled the
smoking issue, but I still had to experiment.
These experiments had to take place in
the fall for it required mature material. I tried
corn silk. It had to be old and black. To put it
in a newspaper did not work. The paper caught
fire and about burned my eye brows off. Next,
there was a weed that we called Indian tobacco.
It had a large seed pod that held lots of little
black seeds. I skipped the newspaper and tried
putting the seed in brown paper. This burned
with a fine red ash, but only one puff and it was
like sucking on battery acid.
My final experimentation was with a
weed that we called a Skeleton weed. When
mature it was hollow, about the size of a pencil,
grey in color, and smoldered with a nice red
ash. This seemed to have the most potential.
Not. This had to be the most pungent,
unpleasant taste known to man and caused a
paroxysm of choking, wheezing, and
weeping. So dear reader, Ive been there,
done that, and please dont try this at home.
I know that my older brothers were not
innocent bystanders. They did their own
thing. The evidence was very plain. Like
many families in Those Days, we had a
little house down a long path. One of my
older brothers, Dennis, was doing his own
research and inadvertently set the privy on
fire. Fortunately there was about two feet of
snow on the ground so quick and diligent
work saved the day, or rather the privy.
Here is the final verdict. I dont
smoke, and never will. I dont want my teeth
to turn black and I certainly dont want to get
consumption. My friend, the Apostle Paul,
puts it more clearly. He says that our bodies
are the temple of the Holy Spirit and we are
not to do anything to this body that would not
glorify God.
This article is dedicated to my late wife, Joie,
who was my best critic and proofreader. God
bless us all and Maranatha.

IN-HOME CARE
A STORY OF SUCCESS!
Submitted by Shirley Hunzberry
Berkeley Senior Services Homemaker Aide, Susan Twigg,
has provided in-home care for Megan and Andrew Reinholt since
they began the program in 2008.
Andrew is a paraplegic/amputee and wheelchair bound.
However, this does not stop him from MANUALLY wheeling
himself almost anywhere. His wife Megan is blind from
Glaucoma and currently waiting on prosthesis (glass eye), after a
failed corneal transplant to help restore vision in her left eye.
Neither of them allows these disabilities to keep them from
what they enjoy. Megan, who has a calming personality, takes
care of their pet cat, Shadow, and Andrew is responsible for
vacuuming their apartment.
Both Andrew and Megan are grateful that Susan is there to
help with bathing and household chores. Susan shares a
connection to the couple and commented The Reinholts are
like family to me. Since my son is in Arizona, I think of them
as my own kids.
While the struggles this couple face may devastate some, the
Reinharts persevere on a daily basis, not letting their disabilities
stop them from living. With the daily assistance from Susan and
the support from BSS, this couple is able to remain in their own
home.
Above: May you have a healthy and prosperous
year! From the In-Home Care Staff at Berkeley
Senior Services. L-R Shirley Huntzberry, Teri

What Makes Cigarettes
So Dangerous?
Cigarettes contain more than 4,000 chemicals, at least 400 of
which are considered toxic or poisonous. This includes
substances such as nicotine, tar, benzene, methanol, acetylene,
carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, formaldehyde, arsenic,
acetone, DDT, cyanide and ammonia. Nicotine is addictive,
which gets smokers hooked on cigarettes. It creates a feeling of
pleasantness by affecting the brain and the nervous system. In
this way it is just like any other drug, such as heroin or cocaine.
How Harmful Can it Really Be?
Cigarettes are known to be the cause of at least 25 serious
diseases and 11 different types of cancer. According to surveys,
about 45-3 million or nearly 20 percent of adults in the United
States are smokers, and smoking is responsible for at least
438,000 deaths every year. Smoking can cause chronic lung and
pulmonary diseases, heart diseases, stroke, aneurysms, leukemia,
cataracts and pneumonia and can lead to bladder, esophageal,
lung, oral, throat, cervical, kidney, stomach and pancreatic
cancers.
Risks of Passive Smoking
People who smoke not only put themselves but also their loved
ones in danger as well. Passive smoking is just as harmful.
Smoking during pregnancy can result in miscarriage, premature
delivery or still birth. Children of smokers often suffer from
health problems caused by second-hand smoke, such as middle
ear infections, breathing problems and chronic bronchitis and
asthma. According to a study, smoking has cost Americans
about $193 billion in one year; and this includes not just the cost
of the pack, but also the cost of time wasted and health costs.
Is It Just Cigarettes?
These harmful effects are linked to tobacco, so cigarettes, cigars,
pipes, chewing tobacco, snuff and even exotic forms such as
kreteks, bidis, hookahs and flavored sheeshas are just as
dangerous. Studies show menthol cigarettes are more
dangerous, as the pleasant effects of menthol induce the smokers
to inhale deeper and keep the smoke in their lungs longer and
also makes it hard for them to quit. The only ways to avoid the
harmful effects of smoking and tobacco use is not to start or to
quit and to take measures to avoid second-hand smoke as well.
Help for Quitting
A number of ways to quit are available, including nicotine gums and
patches, nicotine-replacement therapy, drugs designed to control the
immediate symptoms of quitting and support groups. Quitting will also
show immediate benefits, such as improved appetite, better taste function
and lung function and circulation improvement, and will lead to a
lowered risk of heart and lung diseases and cancer in the long run.
If you are a smoker and would like to kick the habit in 2013--look on the
internet under Smoking Cessation programs and classes in your
community. Start the New Year off with clean lungs and air, and best of
all, better health for yourself and others!
