Vol. 67, NO. 14
M
emorial Day was called Decora-
tion Day in my house and it al-
ways meant a trip to White Haven.
White Haven is where my dad grew up
on a little farm just outside of town. Its
also where most of the people he loved are
buried.
But love wasnt a word Dad threw around
much. And if he felt it on Decoration Day
as he stood at the graves of his mom, dad,
brothers, sister, aunts and uncles, he never
said it.
Come to think of it, Im not sure Dad
went to the grave sites at all. If he did, he
surely did not linger.
No, for Dad, Decoration Day in White
Haven had more to do with the American
Legion, located just across the street from
the cemetery.
While some girl from the local high
school belted out the national anthem to start
the service, Dad would be belting back shots
and beers with Uncle Johnny and their boy-
hood chums at the Legion bar.
Dad and Uncle Johnny were a pair. They
were the closest of the Ackerman brothers
and enjoyed each others company im-
mensely.
Uncle Johnny always reminded me of
Humphrey Bogart both in looks and voice,
especially when he laughed.
He was Dads older brother. He never left
White Haven.
Uncle Johnny used to claim that if he
wasnt dead by the time he turned 50, hed
hire someone to shoot him. Half a century
is long enough for anybody to live, hed
say.
Turned out he made it past 50 but still
died way too young. And he didnt have to
spend money on a marksman. The unfltered
Camels did the job.
The whole clan would wind up at a cook-
out in Uncle Johnnys and Aunt Charlottes
backyard Decoration Day afternoon and
later make an obligatory visit to Great Aunt
Violets.
Dad and Uncle Johnny were afraid of
Aunt Violet, or so it seemed to me. I could
tell by the way they tapped the ashes of
their cigarettes into the cuffs of their pants
in Aunt Violets neat-as-a-pin living room
rather than trouble her for an ash tray. And
by the way they placed their beer bottles on
the foor next to their feet for fear of leaving
a ring on her well-waxed table tops.
The highlight of the morning service at
the cemetery was the reading of the honor
roll. Another high school kid would play
taps and someone would read the name of
each and every White Haven boy who gave
his life in the line of duty.
Mom would gather us up and make us
stand almost at attention for this, which was
okay with me because I knew Id get to hear
my own name and it always made me proud.
Edward Ackerman was one of two of my
dads brothers killed in World War II. I still
have his Purple Heart which Dad gave to me
when my grandmother died.
Aunt Shirley, Dads sister and the baby
of the family, always cried at the mention of
her fallen brothers.
Which is just another reason, I suspect,
that Dad and Uncle Johnny stayed at the
bar. Aunt Shirleys tears would have forced
them to think thoughts theyd just as soon
not think. Their only defense against Aunt
Shirleys emotions would have been to make
fun of her and that would have ruined the
whole day.
The Decoration Day trip to White Haven
I remember most made me want to cry, too,
but for a different reason.
In 1961, I could have been the poster boy
for puberty, starting to fnd girls more inter-
esting than baseball and not quite knowing
what to do about it. Girls made me do things
I wasnt proud of, like dancing in the aisles
of the American Theater during the movie
Twist Around the Clock with Chubby
Checker. Thank God there were no cell
phones with video capabilities nor Facebook
back then.
Chubby Checker wore shoes that laced
on the sides and we came to call them twist
shoes. I begged my mother for a pair for
Easter and she gave in. The problem was
that they didnt have my size at the Triangle
Shoe Store in Pittston. So I insisted the
ones a half-size too small ft perfectly and
mom against her better judgment went
along.
The frst time I wore them for any length
of time was that Decoration Day and riding
home from White Haven in the rear seat of
Dads 9-passenger Chevy Impala station
wagon, I learned the high cost of being cool.
My feet throbbed like the bass drum in the
White Haven school marching band.
Since turning to Mom and risking an I
told you so, was out of the question, I suf-
fered in silence. Slipping them off was not
an option either for that would have raised
questions I preferred not to answer.
But pain did not stop me from wearing
those shoes every chance I got.
There was nothing like having a pretty
girl sitting next to me in home room point to
my feet and exclaim, Wow, twist shoes!
To which I would casually respond:
What? These? Oh, yeah, I guess thats what
they call them.
I did mention puberty, didnt I?

OBrien down, considering recount
Trailing by 9 votes to Alexandra Kokura for Dem nod in magisterial judge race
JOE HEALEY/THE SUNDAY DISPATCH
Alexandra Kokura hugs her godfather, Jerry Mancinelli, election night at the Dupont VFW.
Kokura is a ahead of James Red OBrien by 9 votes for the Democratic nomination for magis-
terial district judge.
Not so fast.
Thats what former Luzerne
County Recorder of Deeds James
Red OBrien said after losing
the Democratic nomination for the
Pittston area magisterial district
judge seat to Alexandra Kokura by
eight votes Tuesday night.
Eight votes is eight votes,
OBrien, 44, said. We still may
have a win there after everything is
counted.
With all of the districts 21 pre-
cincts reporting on the
Democratic side, Kokura
received 1,365 votes and
OBrien received 1,357. Gi-
rard Jerry Mecadon came
in third with 1,283.
The offcial tally on Fri-
day added one vote to
Kokuras tally, putting her
at nine votes ahead. The
Friday count included ma-
chine votes, provisional
ballots, absentee ballots
and write-ins.
OBrien asked for an au-
dit of votes in Hughestown
and Dupont after receiving
reports of calibration is-
sues.
OBrien said he was not
satifed with some of the
explainations he received
on how voting machines
are calibrated and how the
votes on a malfunctioning
machine are switched out.
I have to do some re-
search and weigh my op-
tions, OBrien said. Im not sure
yet if Ill ask for an (offcial) re-
count.
The Luzerne County Election
Board will certifed Tuesdays votes
at a meeting scheduled for Wednes-
day.
OBrien said hes going to wait to
concede. Hes going to wait for the
offcial count and is considering a
request for a recount.
I heard there was a problem with
a voting machine in Hughestown, so
theres that, OBrien said. Well
see what happens.
Mecadon secured the Republican
nomination with 286 votes to Koku-
ras 260. OBrien received 132.
The magisterial district judge seat
was vacated when Fred Pierantoni
became a Luzerne County judge.
The winners of the Democratic and
Republican nomination will square
off in the Nov. 5 General Election.
Other candidates who cross-
fled are Arthur Bobbouine, Len
Sanguedolce and Mark Singer, all
of Pittston. Jeffrey C. Kulick, of
Hughestown, and Quiana
Murphy Lehman, of Du-
pont, appeared on the Dem-
ocratic ballot only.
Votes for the remaining
candidates on the Demo-
cratic ticket are as follows:
Singer received 453 votes,
Sanguedolce received 446,
Bobbouine received 368,
Lehman received 202 and
Kulick received 113. Of
the remaining candidates
on the Republican side,
Bobbouine received 128
votes, Singer received 93
votes and Sanguedolce re-
ceived 63 votes.
Kokura, 30, of Dupont,
gathered with a group of
about 30 red-shirted sup-
porters at the Dupont
VFW. She was reluctant to
acknowledge her win un-
til she had a fnal number
from Luzerne County.
I tried to knock on ev-
ery door and meet as many
people as possible to get
our message out, she said. And
that message was Im going to work
hard, 100 percent, every day for this
community.
Mecadon, 48, of Jenkins Town-
ship, and his supporters gathered at
the Knights of Columbus Hall on
Main Street in Pittston.
It would have been nice to win
on both sides, but were happy to
be in the dance, he said. It was a
hard-fought, well-run campaign by
everyone. I thank my supporters
and now Im looking toward the fall
campaign.
The magisterial district recently
became signifcantly larger. Earlier
By JOE HEALEY

I have to
do some
research
and weigh
my options.
Im not
sure yet if
Ill ask for
an (ofcial)
recount.

This coming July, COLTS will
implement the second and nal
part of our Fare Increase that was
adopted in 2012. We want our riders
to be prepared well in advance of the
increase.
Prior to 2012, COLTS had not raised
fares in more than 15 years. These
are COLTS current bus fares, pass
and ticket prices along with the
increases that will become effective
on Monday, July 1, 2013.
Please visit www.coltsbus.com
or call (570) 346-2061 with any
questions.
In the race for four seats on the
Pittston Area School Board, Marty
Quinn, of Hughestown, was the top
vote getter on both the Democratic
and Republican ballots. Quinn gar-
nered 2,908 Democratic votes and
470 Republican.
Rounding out the Democratic
ballot will be John Adonizio, of
Hughestown, who received 2,507
votes, Bruce Knick, of Dupont,
with 2,470 and R. Kent Bratlee, of
Avoca with 2,271. Vito Quaglia,
of Jenkins Township, Roseanne
Ricotta, of Hughestown, and Mari-
lyn Starna, of Pittston Township,
were unsuccessful in obtaining a
Democratic nomination.
Rounding out the Republican
ballot will be Starna with 464
votes, Ricotta with 459 votes and
Knick with 439 votes. Bratlee was
unsuccessful in obtaining a Repub-
lican nomination.
Quinn and Adonizio previously
served on the board. Starna, Knick
and Bratlee are incumbents and
Ricotta and Quaglia are newcom-
ers.
Quinn, Knick, Bratlee and Ricot-
ta ran as a teamcalled Patriots First.
Big issues facing the district
include increased security in the
wake of the Sandy Hook shooting,
keeping up with technology and a
$2 million budget shortfall which is
looming in the district but could be
acted on before any new members
take offce in December. Also on
the table is the closure of the Benja-
min Franklin Kindergarten Center
in Dupont.
The district has a new adminis-
tration in place. Its superintendent,
George Cosgrove, and assistant
superintendent, Jack Lussi, both re-
tired last year and, as a cost-saving
measure, Dr. Michael Garzella was
hired to essentially replace them
both. Also, the districts principal
of curriculum, Dr. Janet Donovan,
was moved to a building principal
position at the Intermediate Center.
One incumbent, Bob Linskey
Jr., did not seek a second term on
the board, instead opting to run for
supervisor in Jenkins Township. He
was defeated in that bid. Five other
board members terms are not yet
expired. They are Board President
Charlie Sciandra, Anthony Guar-
glia, Joe Kelly, Richard Gorzkows-
ki and John Donahue.
Wyoming Area
Across the river in Wyoming
Area, current board president John
Bolin was the top vote getter on the
Democratic ballot (1,167 votes)
and Jerry Stofko was the top vote
getter on the Republican side (613
votes) in the race for four seats.
Rounding out the Democratic
ballot was Jerry Stofko with 1,162,
incumbent, John Marianacci with
1,033 and Nick DeAngelo with
811.
Failing to earn a Democratic nod
was Toni Valenti with 760 votes,
Kimberly A. Yochem with 625,
John Paul Bonin with 490, Michael
J. Brown with 445 and Ree Ree De-
luca with 384.
Rounding out the Republican
ballot was Bolin with 526 votes,
Yochem with 488 and Marianacci
with 439. Failing to secure a GOP
nomination was Valenti with 424,
Bonin with 411, DeAngelo with
364, Brown with 332 and Deluca
with 200.
With Bolin, Stofko and Mari-
anacci all garnering nominations on
both sides, the race will likely come
down to Yochem versus DeAngelo
in November.
Two of the four incumbents, Gil
Dominick and Frank Casarella, did
not seek re-election.
Bolin and Marianacci, who have
been on the board since 2005, ran
as a team. Former board members
Valenti and DeAngelo, who lost the
last election by a hair, ran as a team.
And the three newcomers from Ex-
eter Township, Bonin, Yochem and
Brown, ran as a team. DeLuca and
Stofko ran independently.
Each candidate said the lack of a
teachers contract is the biggest is-
sue in the district.
The four winners in Novem-
ber will make up the next board,
joining current members Estelle
Campenni, Deanna Farrell, Mary
Louise Degnan, Elizabeth Gober-
Mangan and Carl Yorina Jr.

Duponts VFW, American Legion and AMVETS pay respect
Memorial Day celebration frst
began with the war dead placed
front and center. The holidays orig-
inal name, Decoration Day, came
from the days main activity: leav-
ing fowers and fags at cemeteries.
But also the last Monday in May
has come to mark the unoffcial be-
ginning of summer, with parades
doused in red, white and blue,
cookouts in the backyard and trips
to the local campgrounds flling the
long weekend.
For Duponts VFW Post 4909,
American Legion Post 657 and the
AMVETS Post 189 members, the
central event is to pay respect and
remember the fallen. Post members
have begun one their busiest months
with placement of over 600 fags at
local cemeteries, selling poppies,
the symbol of Memorial Day.
But their main focus is carrying
on the tradition of setting up the
display of 60 crosses which bear
the names of all Dupont residenst
who gave their lives in the line of
duty. This display is located on the
Memorial Lawn in front of the Du-
pont Municipal Building on Chest-
nut Street and the site of the days
celebrations following the parade.
This tradition began over 20
years ago when George Legezdh,
former Dupont mayor, police chief
and veteran, wanted to fnd a way
to commemorate DupontS fallen
soldiers. He came up with the idea
of making white wooden crosses
with the name of each of Duponts
deceased war heroes and placing
them in front of the monument
adjacent the municipal building.
On Memorial Day, the ceremony
included the reading of each name
followed by the toll of a bell after
each name is announced.
Legezdh passed away in 2009
but his time-honored idea contin-
ues through the help of the mem-
bers of the VFW, American Legion
and AMVETS. This year, Bernard
McDonald, commander of AM-
VETS 189, and Gerard Guranri,
AMVETS Adjutant Post 189, had
the honor of placing the commem-
orative crosses.
Duponts memorial celebrations
will be held on Monday, May 27
beginning with Post members and
veterans conducting services at
both Holy Mother of Sorrows and
Sacred Heart of Jesus cemeteries.
The parade will begin at 10:30 a.m.
starting at the VFW Post on Main
Street and continuing to the mu-
nicipal building on Chestnut Street
where services will be conducted
at the Memorial Lawn. All are in-
vited to attend the morning services
and the parade. After the services,
all are invited to the VFW Post for
refreshments and the children are
invited for hot dogs and soda at the
Dupont Hose Company.

Pittston to combat discrimination
Its an effort to make Pittston
more welcoming.
Thats why City Council will
vote to form a city Human Rela-
tions Commission at a special
meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday. The
new group will investigate allega-
tions of discrimination in employ-
ment, housing and other areas in
Pittston.
According to a draft of the ordi-
nance, all residents of Pittston, no
matter race, color, sex, religion,
ancestry, nationality, sexual orien-
tation and gender identity, marriage
and familial status, age, mental or
physical disability, will be given
equal opportunities for employ-
ment, housing and the use of public
services.
Former mayor Michael Lombaro
said the city is taking a progressive
approach.
A lack of understanding results
in fear, he said. The face of the
city is changing and if we dont
recognize that change, we cant
respond to our constituents. Its a
philosophical shift.
The commission will consist of
7 to 15 members, always an odd
number, who shall serve overlap-
ping terms of three years each.
Members will be appointed by
City Council. The commission
may elect three, nonvoting mem-
bers to broaden the diversity of the
group. Members shall be residents
of Pittston or individuals who work
full time within the city. No mem-
ber may hold offce in any political
party.
No salary will be offered to
members, but expenses will be
paid when approved by council.
Paid staff may be hired to assist in
the performance of the duties of the
commission. Council must approve
the hiring.
Council will appoint a chair-
person. That person will be re-
sponsible for setting meetings,
coordinating with the Pittston City
administrator regarding complaints
and responses.
Councilman Michael Lombardo
said the NEPA Rainbow Alliance
approached the city about enacting
such an ordinance.
Its just common sense, he
said. Were just giving everybody
an equal opportunity.
The alliance acts as an advocate
of the areas lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender and allied community.
The Rainbow Alliance and
Equality Pennsylvania applaud the
City of Pittston, the frst municipal-
ity in Luzerne County to protect its
citizens and workers from discrim-
ination, said John Dawe, execu-
tive director of the NEPARainbow
Alliance and a board member of
Equality Pennsylvania.
It is surprising that elsewhere in
Luzerne County and Pennsylvania
it is legal to fre someone fromtheir
job, deny them housing and restrict
their access to public accommoda-
tions because of their sexual orien-
tation, gender identity and expres-
sion, Dawe said. We hope that
someday soon, LGBT Pennsylva-
nians can all be protected by such
laws.
There is currently legislation un-
der consideration in Harrisburg that
would amend the state Human Re-
lations Act to include protections
based on sexual orientation and
gender identity/expression. The act
already protects based on other cri-
teria, including race, ethnicity and
other categories, Dawe said.
According to Pittstons pro-
posed ordinance, an individual
who claims to be aggrieved by an
unlawful practice may fle a com-
plaint with the city administrator or
the chairperson of the commission.
After a complaint is fled, it will
be reviewed by the commission
and the target of the complainer
will be notifed and given 60 days
to respond. A fact-fnding confer-
ence will be scheduled and the ac-
cused and the accuser may present
evidence to a commissioner. If the
issue is not resolved, the commis-
sioner will prepare a summary and
an opinion. The Commission will
then meet and accept or reject the
fnding by public vote.
If the commission adopts an
expanded procedure format and
a conclusion is not reached in the
fact-fnding conference, an investi-
gation will occur. The commission
will then determine if any other ac-
tions are needed.
A person found in violation of
the ordinance, depending on the
situation, could be required to pay
back pay or damages according
to the state Human Relations Act,
emotional distress damages, exem-
plary damages, reasonable attor-
neys fees and court costs.
Councilman Lombardo said
Pittston is trying to foster a more
welcoming atmosphere.
We want to get people to move
into the city, buy property here, buy
a house here, patronize our busi-
nesses, he said. We thought that
by fostering a more welcoming at-
titude, it would help us do that.

WHAT TO DO WHENA
FAMILY MEMBER DIES
A client, who is also my close
friend, called this week to inform
me that his mother had died.
Confused by grief, he was under
the impression that he had to call
a lawyer to check the contents of
his mothers safe deposit box to
retrieve her life insurance policy.
I advised him to wait until several
days after the funeral, when he
should then call me to begin the
administration of the estate. I
explained that the funeral director
didnt expect payment immediately,
and that there would be enough
time for us to liquidate moms
assets and pay all of her bills.
What should you do when a
family member dies? Take time to
grieve. Then, once things slowly
begin to fall back into place, call
your attorney and let him or her
worry about the legal details. Your
time should be devoted to more
important matters, such as pulling
things back together for you and
your family.
Ive been helping families
administer estates since 1982, and
Id be glad to be of service to yours.
PA passes preliminary $43.1 million spending plan
The Pittston Area School Board
passed a preliminary 2013-2014
school year budget during Thurs-
day nights monthly meeting.
The tentative budget assumes a
$421,997 shortfall with an antici-
pated $43,183,436 in expenditures,
but only $42,761,439 in revenues.
Furthermore, the proposed bud-
get would feature an increase in the
property rate taxes from the current
rate of 13.4246 mills to 13.7333
mills and the closure of the Benja-
min Franklin Kindergarten Center
in Dupont.
By contrast, the districts 2012-
2013 school year budget called for
$41,479,521 in revenues but it is
anticipated that the school year will
end with $42,342,228 in expenses.
It is estimated that $226,000 in
salary, maintenance and utility ex-
penses will be saved with the clo-
sure of the Kindergarten Center.
Al Melone, a fnancial consultant
contracted by the district, noted that
this budget could look drastically
different from what is fnally ad-
opted in July or August of this year.
He also noted that the defcit,
although troublesome, is charac-
teristic of national trends in school
funding.
He did however warn district
offcials to effectively prepare to
eliminate future debt increases in
order to avoid being labeled a dis-
tressed school district.
All school board members pres-
ent at the meeting voted to accept
the preliminary budget.
Board members Marilyn Starna
and Joseph Kelly were absent from
the meeting.
Board President Charles Scian-
dra, upon voting for acceptance, ad-
vised all members to look for ways
to increase funding so as to close
out the debt and potentially avoid
the tax increase.
One such measure may have been
put into effect following Melones
budget presentation. The board
voted to extend the districts busing
contract with Pace Transportation
for an additional fve years.
Although exact fgures were not
given, Pace estimates that $60,000
each year can be saved under the
proposed expansion. This estimate
was not included in the budget, as
the measure had not been passed
when Melone was making budget
preparations.
Board member Robert Linskey,
who supported the contract exten-
sion, but preferred a three year term
to fve, cast the sole opposition vote.
Kent Bratlee abstained. The dis-
trict also hopes to save money by
having some cyber schooled stu-
dents utilize Pittston Areas cyber
curriculum.
Melone estimates that the district
currently pays $700,000 in tuition
each year to other school districts.
Superintendent Michael Garzella
has regularly emphasized the im-
portance of improving district cy-
ber-schooling abilities as a means
to better serve the community and
save the district money.
He estimates that roughly 85 stu-
dents leave the district for out of
district cyber schools and charter
schools, but he is confdent that that
fgure will be signifcantly reduced
in the coming school years.

Pittston Areas Education Im-
provement Organization (PAEIO)
on Thursday will host area busi-
nesses in an information session
to promote the benefts of contrib-
uting to their organization in ex-
change for substantial tax credits.
The presentation will give busi-
ness leaders an overview on how
they could beneft from tax credits,
how they can apply and what types
of projects the contributions will
fund.
Basically, its a way for us to
provide more opportunities to the
kids because all the money goes to
them. Pittston Area School Dis-
trict Superintendent Dr. Michael
Garzella said.
This is a
great way for us
to do that and
without burden-
ing the taxpay-
ers.
By contribut-
ing to the pro-
gram, businesses
would receive
a tax credit equal to 75 percent of
its donation or up to a maximum of
$750,000 per taxable year. If that
organization agrees to duplicate
a donation over two consecutive
years, the credit increases to 90 per-
cent of the contribution made.
Those contributions go directly
towards new and innovative proj-
ects within the school district that
would provide students and teach-
ers with the most up-to-date re-
sources and learning tools.
To meet approval from the Penn-
sylvania Department of Commu-
nity & Economic Development, the
projects are required to be innova-
tive in nature and beyond the scale
of any other projects the district is
currently implementing.
Our focus right now is really on
bringing technology into the class-
room and providing kids with por-
table devices, Garzella said.
The projects we submitted this
year are related to individualized
instructions for kids and innovating
digital concepts in the classroom.
Those concepts can focus on
anything from reading/literacy to
mathematics or science.
Though the foundation has al-
ready been in existence for some
time, Garzella said it got off the
ground recently when the school
board was exploring additional
sources of funding.
Right now, the way education
has been cut the past few years, any
revenue source is one we need to
explore and grow so we can main-
tain education, he said.
Its really a win for the busi-
nesses, its the win for our school
district and its a win for our kids.
A2003 amendment to the Public
School Code allowed authorization
to award tax credits to businesses
which donated to approved educa-
tional improvement organizations,
a status PAEIO achieved when they
were offcially recognized as a non-
proft under Section 501(c)(3) of
the Internal Revenue Code.
Theyre recognized within the
commonwealth as an Educational
Improvement Organization by the
Pennsylvania Department of Com-
munity & Economic Development,
which will have a representative on
hand to answer questions following
Thursdays session.
The presentation will begin at 8
a.m. and is open to the public.

Votes of
condence
Many people, from pundits to persons
on the street, are wringing their hands over
a lack of candidates for municipal offces.
Whats the world coming to? we say. Is this
democracy the way it was meant to be?
Well, no. Qualifed people willing to run
for offce makes for good government. Its
hard to throw the bums out when no one
is willing to take the bums place.
But perhaps theres another side to the
story. Perhaps the elected offcials are
doing such a fne job that theres no point
in trying to oust them. Sounds simplistic,
we know, perhaps even naive, but when
we look at the local municipalities where
mayoral candidates ran unopposed we see
towns that, for the most part, are running
smoothly, keeping costs down, and gener-
ally doing a good job in these diffcult
economic times.
So, while we could point to Avoca,
Dupont, Duryea, Exeter, Hughestown, West
Pittston, Wyoming and West Wyoming and
say voters did not have a choice, maybe
just maybe, the voters made an excellent
choice in the past by electing, respectively,
Bob Mullen, Dan Lello, Keith Moss,
Wayne Quick, Tony Denisco, Bob Boyer
and Joseph Herbert, and are quite content
to see them continue in offce. Just sayin.
Then theres Pittston City where in-
cumbent Mayor Jason Klush did have a
challenge in the Democrat Primary from
Gene Rooney.
Klushs resounding victory (72 percent
to 27 percent) indicates that he, too, has the
confdence of his constituents. And why
should he not? Pittston City, especially
Main Street, is the talk of Northeastern
Pennsylvania. And while Klush is the frst
to admit he cannot take the credit, he has
proven wise enough to continue to lead in
the model of his immediate predecessors.
That said, Rooney deserves a shout out.
He knew it was an uphill battle when he
entered the race and he knew hed have
precious little campaign funds. But he
entered the arena, ran a door-to-door grass-
roots campaign, and acquitted himself well.
Campaigns always bring rhetoric that
can leave hard feelings, but we hope Gene
Rooney has a future as part of a team work-
ing toward a better Pittston. He is an en-
thusiastic guy with a lot of vision and a lot
of talent. He is leaving the tavern business
to go into investigative work (for which he
has an impressive resume) but heres hop-
ing he still has time for public service.
YOUR SPACE
Students arent the only ones looking forward to summer vacation. Soon, school buses, too, will be able to sleep late - unlike in this photo
taken by Dispatch photographer Bill Tarutis on a cold winter morning as buses sat warming up at the Yatesville Bus Company on the Pittston
By-Pass wanting to be all toasty for the students they would soon he gathering to bring to school.
School busses look forward to summer vacation, too

In the city
Supervisor candidate wants to set record straight
For the past few weeks, Jenkins Township Supervisor Joe Zelonis
has been telling anyone who would listen that I was a liar. Joe
even told people who did not want to listen that I was a liar.
I found out on election night that Joe apparently was calling me
a liar because I had said publicly that fellow Township Supervisor
Coreen Milazzo had voted to raise property taxes by 50% over the
past three years. Joe said that was just not true.
Well, Joe, the 2013 millage is set at 1.5 mills. In 2010, the
Jenkins Township millage was 1.0 mill. I checked my bills. Simple
math says that is a 50% tax increase in three years. Yes, a 50% tax
increase for all property owners including seniors.
I wont call you a liar, Joe. I just need to set the record straight.

Memorial Day inspires local poet
It is a day like no other,
when we remember the passing of ones child, father or mother.
These memories and thoughts are always with us,
when they each gave us love, happiness, or a blissful fuss.
Their time spent here on earth,
left us with a wonderful memory and lots of mirth.
Monuments are created all over the world for us to see,
to honor each person that might be you or me.
These feelings and moments of sorrow,
are here today and also for tomorrow.
We are taught there is a heaven above,
and if we are good on earth, then we will soar high like a dove
Our families and friends will again get together,
like birds of a feather.
As we take time to remember loved ones at each site,
our thoughts and love for each person will be like the sun
above-so bright.

An error in two pieces
S
ummers almost here, and so begins my sea-
sonal, catatonic walk through every bathing
suit department this side of the Susquehanna.
Its my version of Groundhog Day: same thing every,
single year.
But, this year, I lost a few ounces, and have been
Pilate-sizing myself into a ftter imaginary image of
myself, so I thought Id try something truly scandal-
ous: a two piece!
Afew days ago, as I was leafng through the Lands
End catalog, I said, aloud: (a mistake), I think
mamas going to try a two piece bathing suit this
summer!
There was, of course, a suffocating blanket of
silence. This is never a positive sign. I know where
I stand with all the degenerates in this family when
they extol their unasked opinions; but silence can be
lethal.
What?! I squawked: Its not like Im the size
of an emu! I mean, Im no Amy Winehouse, God
knows, but Im not monstrous, either!Am I?
Everyone stared.
Finally, my 18 year-old offered this proclamation:
Mom, Im totally vetoing that idea. You are wayyyy
too old. The over/under age for a two piece is, like,
40. And you havent seen that number in 10 years!
I was astounded that 1. He actually had an opinion
about anything I wore and 2. He thought he had veto
power over anything I wore. Deluded child.
I was miffed and turned into
a 3rd grader. Well, too bad.
Im getting a two piece. I AM!
SO THERE!
He and his brother left the
room among whispers of:
insane! Old ladies should NEVER wear a two piece!
She better not swim anywhere with meSo embar-
rassing
Ingrates.
I looked to my Pilates friends for affrmation.
They assured me I can sport one, no problem! They
encouraged the purchase, in fact! Thats all I needed
to hear. (Although, en route to the mall, I did contem-
plate briefy that this would be the only answer they
could offer. They certainly werent going to devastate
me and tell me I couldnt wear a two piece). Damn.
Well, Im pretending they meant it.
So, off I ventured, wandering between racks upon
racks upon racks of bathing suits. It wasnt fun, espe-
cially since I didnt see many women under 25 fip-
ping through the tiny hangers. See, the problem for
me is multi-faceted: I have one boob, a C-section scar
that rivals the San Andreas Fault and stretch marks
that can be mistaken for a road map of Jim Thorpe.
It was a challenge. If a top sort-of ft, the bottoms
resembled dental foss and a Band-Aid. If the bottoms
ft, the top made my chest look like a lop-sided avo-
cado. Some suits made me resemble a stuffed piata,
others hid nothing. And I mean nothing.

Food safety steps for
successful community meals
M
emorial Day weekend offcially begins
the summer celebrations. Everywhere
you look, folks are raising money for
community events. Most usually involve selling
food. The USDAgives seven food safety steps for
successful community meals. Here they are:
Plan ahead Make sure the location meets
your needs. Be sure you have enough oven,
stovetop, refrigerator, freezer and work space. If
there isnt enough equipment, change the menu
to ft the location or fnd another location. Find out if theres a source of
clean water. If not, bring water for preparation and cleaning.
Store and prepare food safely - Refrigerate or freeze perishable food
within two hours of shopping or preparing; 1 hour when the temperature
is above 90 degrees F. So, if there isnt ample refrigeration, then serve a
non-perishable food. For instance, instead of selling potato salad, sell a
tossed green salad with a canned three bean salad.
Find separate preparation areas in the work space for raw and cooked
food. Have certain volunteers working with raw meat and others working
with rolls and salads, otherwise known as ready-to-eat foods.
Separate cooking and serving utensils for raw and ready-to-eat foods.
Never place cooked food back on the same plate or cutting board that
held raw food.
Wash cutting boards, dishes, utensils and work surfaces frequently with
hot, soapy water. If there isnt hot water available, choose disposable.
Everyone needs to wash hands with soap and warm water for at least
20 seconds before and after handling food and after using the bathroom
or leaving the food stand and returning for volunteer work.
Cook food to safe minimum internal temperatures its the only way
to tell if harmful bacteria are destroyed.
Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature of raw
meats. Cook meats to these internal temperatures: ground beef 160
degrees, poultry breasts, legs and halves 165 degrees and casseroles 165
degrees. Check temperature in several places to be sure food is cooked to
a safe minimum internal temperature.
Never partially cook food for fnishing later because you increase the
risk of bacterial growth.
Transport food safely Keep hot food hot. Keep cold food Ccold.
If volunteers bring food to be sold, that food should be keep cold in a
cooler with ice packs, then if need be, reheat to 165 degrees. Or if serving
hot, keep at or above 140 degrees F. Wrap well and place in an insulated
container.
Keep food out of the danger zone (40-140 degrees F) - Keep hot

Finally, like a beacon in the
night! I found the perfect suit. The
top masqueraded my boobs well
enough to pass as a matched set
and the bottoms came up as high
as they needed to without looking
like my Gramma Jiuntas big, old,
tarp-like panties.
In this electronic, instant age,
we dont wait until were home to
show everyone what we bought.
No sir. We take a photo with our
phone, send it to everyone we
know and wait on the miniscule,
corner bench of a very dirty and
drafty dressing room for their
response.
The opinions were varied. Anne,
my boss/friend was positive. She
encouraged me to go for it. But,
she knows if she hurts my feelings
shell have to medicate me in order
to get any work out of me the fol-
lowing day. She is very smart.
I texted my daughter and pon-
dered; Does this look ridiculous
on me? Her stinging, effusive
response? YES!
Sigh. Next, I tried my sister who
chirped; Its not that it looks bad
on you, per se, but the color is just
awful. That was her way of say-
ing I looked like a watermelon.
I bought it anyway.
I tried it on immediately upon
returning home and stupidly asked
my son what he thought. He cov-
ered his mouth and I dont know
if he was laughing or masking
the impending spewing of vomit.
He shook his head sadly: Oh
Maria. I just thinkuhmaybe a
one-piece is a better look for you.
And he scurried away so I couldnt
hit him with the box of Bounce I
aimed at his head.
Oh, hes right. The lights in
that dressing room were so dim;
I purposely ignored the faws that
became glaringly magnifed in my
own mirror. Even my knees looked
baggier once I got home. Some
women of a certain age can wear
a two piece bathing suit: Christie
Brinkley, Madonna, even Cher
but not me. I cant do it; I cant
pull the trigger on this look. Its
tootoofagrant. So back it
goes.
Theres an old movie called
The Enchanted Cottage. In it, a
couple, one homely, one disfg-
ured, meet in a magical cottage and
they become transformed, but only
in each others eyes. They morph
into beautiful specimens of human
beings, or each others perception
of themselves.
I need an enchanted cottage. I
need dim lighting. I need, sadly, a
sturdy one piece bathing suit with
matching caftan and burka. I need
my 20s back. Otherwise, Im an
emu.

HECK
Exeter Borough to issue citations
to households without refuse stickers
Exeter Borough is reminding res-
idents and businesses that citations
will be issued to those who have
not yet purchased refuse stickers. A
citation plus $250 will be owed for
the refuse sticker.
Residents are advised to follow
the recycling calendar by reading
all information carefully. It has been
noted residents are placing bushes
and tree limbs curbside without cut-
ting them into tied 3-foot lengths.
In the future, cuttings not prop-
erly bundled and cut will not be re-
moved. Yard waste placed in bags
will not be taken and residents are
reminded that yellow containers are
not used for yard waste or refuse.
Yellow bins are only for recycla-
bles.
Residents are required to pur-
chase trash cans and containers
in which to place refuse and yard
waste.
Each household should only
have one or at the most two re-
cycling bins and only one or two
newspaper/junk mail bins with lids.
For more information on refuse
collection, call Lynda at 654-3001
Ext 2.
For more information about re-
cycling, call Karen at 654-0933.

HAPPY & SAFE MEMORIAL DAY
WEEKEND TO ALL!
Barbeque styles have been intermixing for years and
regions in the USA hold their own tastes. The Carolinas
and Northeast use vinegar based or mustard in their
sauces. Texas prefers hotter and spicier flavors using
brown sugar in their marinades. Southwestern states
add hot peppers to their rubs for another spicy kick.
Florida and Hawaii use fruit juices to make their sauces
more sweet tasting. Lastly, in the Midwest, barbeques
incorporate more tomato or molasses based sauces.

First-term Pittston Mayor Jason
Klush will lead the city for another
four years after handily defeating
bar own Gene Rooney in Tuesdays
Primary Election.
Its nice to have the support of
the people, Klush said. Its a sign
theyre happy with whats going
on.
He said hes looking
forward to four more
years.
We hope to continue
the progress downtown
and help reinvigorate the
neighborhoods, Klush
said.
Rooney said this is
likely his last venture into politics.
Im not a politician. He said run-
ning for mayor was a learning ex-
perience and he was grateful for all
the support he received and to the
people who encouraged him.
I learned a lot about the whos
who and the wheres where,
Rooney said. I met a lot of nice
people along the way and learned
about their concerns.
After the sale of his bar, Rooneys
Irish Pub, is fnalized, he plans to
go into private investigation work.
A Republican write-in effort by
resident Donald Yatko failed. Only
76 write-in votes were cast, short of
the 100 needed to get on that ballot.
Klush received 887 votes or 72
percent, to Rooneys 323 votes, or
27 percent.
City activist Barb Zangre was
unable to earn one of the two avail-
able seats on Pittston City
Council. Incumbent Mi-
chael Lombardo and former
Councilman Ken Bangs won
the two seats. Lombardo re-
ceived 923 votes, Bangs
received 576 and Zangre re-
ceived 388.
Democrat City Controller
Chris Latona, who ran unop-
posed for re-election, received 917
votes. This is the last time his seat
will be on the ballot as the home
rule measure passed last year elimi-
nates the position.
AVOCABOROUGH
In Avoca, Democratic Mayor
Bob Mullen ran unopposed and
earned another term. Council seats
in Avoca represent separate wards.
In Ward 1, Democrat Tom Fritz
ran unopposed and earned a seat.
In Ward 2, Democrats Thomas
Goul and John D. Boone each won
a seat. In Ward 3, Maryann Tigue
won a four-year seat on council and
Joseph Satkowski won a two-year
seat. Democrat Therese Wrubel ran
unopposed for tax collector.
DUPONT BOROUGH
In Dupont, unopposed Demo-
cratic Mayor Dan Lello won anoth-
er term. Four candidates were seek-
ing three 4-year slots on council.
Winners were Mark Kowalczyk
with 414 votes, Stanley Knick Jr.
with 399 votes and Bernard J. Zie-
linski with 366 votes. Paul Hou-
dyshell was the lowvote getter with
235 votes and did not win a seat.
Pina Hansen won a two-year term.
Democrat Joy Tetlak-Adelstein ran
unopposed for tax collector after
longtime offcial William Billy
Elko decided not to run.

In Duryea, longtime Democratic
Mayor Keith Moss ran unopposed
and won another term. Eight resi-
dents sought four seats on council.
Winning seats were Mike McGlynn

with 447 votes and Audrey Collier
Marcinko with 410 votes. Unsuc-
cessful candidates were Sean Shay
with 386 votes, Valerie A. Olsze-

BILL TARUTIS PHOTOS/FOR THE SUNDAY DISPATCH
Haleigh Zurek waits to be dunked, again, at Relay for Life.
Annual American Cancer
Society Relay for Life staged
at PAS Trippi Stadium
T
he culmination of a seven
month planning process
came to life last Saturday
as students, supporters and
survivors joined together to stomp
out cancer one step at a time.
33 teams of over 450 participants
took to the track at Pittston Area
High Schools Char-
ley Trippi Stadium in
Yatesville to support
the fght against can-
cer in the American
Cancer Societys an-
nual Relay for Life.
An organized,
overnight fundrais-
ing walk, the Relay
for Life has been a
staple of the American
Cancer Societys fun-
draising efforts since
the very frst team
relay raised $33,000
for cancer research in
1986.
Today, the event brings together
teams of patients, survivors and sup-
porters to take turns walking around
a track. Walkers/runners are asked
to have a member of their team on
the track at all times as a symbol that
cancer never rests.
Event Chair and Pittston Area
Senior Anthony Capozucca said
that since last years event, students
havent rested either.
We had seven committee mem-
bers last year, Capozucca said. We
had over 40 this year.
And hopefully with that success,
we can make more people aware of
the seriousness of cancer and join
the battle against it.
The community and the com-
mittee and everyone in-
volved really stepped
up, he said.
But Capozucca is part
of a committee unlike
most others involved with
the Relay.
With the exception of
faculty advisor Amanda
Karaffa and Lori Anne
Fontanella, an income
development representa-
tive from the American
Cancer Society, the event
was put on solely by the
students.
Beginning in October,
the student committee
formed and developed Colors of
Cancer teams, with each team don-
ning a color which represents a type
of cancer. Some of nicknames in-
cluded Stop the War in My Rack,
Ovarian-portant Cause and Blad-
der Blasters.
Additionally, the committee

is so impres-

this event is
the youth. The
kids did every-

sought out speakers, cancer survi-
vors and sponsorships.
The thing that is so impressive
about this event is the youth, Fon-
tanella said. The kids did every-
thing.
They went out on their own and
raised over $3,000 dollars in spon-
sorships for the event, she said.
Its just amazing to see high
school students supporting it the
way they are, Karaffa said.
Sharing the fght within her own
family, Karaffa said cancer is an is-
sue that anyone from any walk of
life can relate to.
No matter where you look,
everybody is affected and knows
somebody who has or has had can-
cer, Karaffa said. We just want to
be able to have a day where we can
bring awareness to the fght.
As of Tuesday, the event had
raised $44,153 and counting eas-
ily eclipsing the original goal of
$26,000.
Those dollars help to fund can-
cer research and numerous patient
service programs including the
American Cancer Societys Hope
Lodge, which gives patients and
their caregivers a place to stay
when their treatments may be in
another city.
But that wasnt the only goal that
was eclipsed. The planning com-
mittee ended up with 33 teams,
seven more than they hoped. They
also were able to arrange to bring
four more cancer survivors to the
event than originally planned.
His frst year participating in the
Relay, junior Jonathon Kamor said
the response from his fellow stu-
dents has been unbelievable.
It seems like it might be a lost
cause but when you see all these
people theyre dedicated, Kamor
said. Its great to see.
Asked if he plans to participate
against next year, Kamor didnt
hesitate.
Absolutely, he said.

HI GH SCHOOL BASEBAL L
Patriots press top seed to fnal out
Wyoming Area also eliminated after enjoying 5-0 lead against Abington
Wyoming Area split with a pair
of recent state champions.
PittstonArea, as the lowest-seed-
ed team still in action, pressed the
current top seed into the fnal in-
ning.
Both the Warriors and Patriots
were eliminated from the District
2 Class AAA baseball semifnals
in tense semifnal games Thursday
after putting together impressive
offensive efforts to get through the
semifnals Tuesday.
It took a huge inning by 2009
state champion Abington Heights
and a clutch defensive play in the
fnal inning by top-seeded Valley
View to bring the local high school
baseball season to an end.
Abington Heights 9
Wyoming Area 7
Wyoming Area fell victim
to nine-run inning by Abington
Heights, but still battled back to
make things tense for the Comets
late.
The Warriors, who let a 5-0 lead
get away, rallied to score twice in
the sixth inning and put two men
on base in the bottomof the seventh
before having their season come to
an end.
We never gave up, Wyoming
Area coach Chick Andrewscavage
said. We were going until the last
inning when we got two guys on
with two out.
Abington Heights reached the f-
nal with a big fourth inning. It was
their time, Andrewscavage said.
The rest of the game, they only
had one hit.
Kevin Elwell had a double and
triple during the inning and Dante
Pasqualichio followed him each
time with RBI singles. Elwell
scored and drove in a run in each of
his at-bats in the inning. J
osh Slocum started it with a dou-
ble, then Elwell and Pasqualichio
followed.
The frst six Abington Heights
batters reached base to knock out
two Wyoming Area pitchers.
Theres nothing you can say
about it, Andrewscavage said.
If our kids didnt play well, that
would be another thing, but they
just hit every spot on the feld.
Wyoming Area took a 5-0 lead
in the third inning on just two hits.
Nick OBrien had an RBI single for
one of his three hits in the game and
Bart Chupka followed the second
hit batsman of the inning by deliv-
ering a three-run double.
OBrien and Eric Walkowiak
had back-to-back, two-out singles
in the sixth and scored on an error.
Abington Heights side-arm pitcher
Dave Manasek fought through a
complete game, striking out 11
while allowing six hits, three walks
and three earned runs.
Our kids hit the ball well, An-
drewscavage said. That pitcher
was tough, coming from under-
neath at times.
Zach Lopatka gave up two hits
and just an unearned run as the last
of three pitchers in the ffth inning
then kept the Comets hitless over
the fnal three innings.
The loss ended a season in which
Wyoming Area fell a game short of
frst place in Division 2 of the Wyo-
ming Valley Conference and a win
short of the district championship
game.
We seemed to hover around
the .500 mark at the beginning of
the season, then they started to be-
lieve, Andrewscavage said. They
always worked hard.
Wyoming Area fnished 11-6.
Valley View 3
Pittston Area 1
Right felder Pat Houlihan made
a running catch before colliding
with the fence on a potential game-
tying blast by Josh Razvillas in the
seventh inning Thursday, allowing
Valley View to hang on for a 3-1
win over Pittston Area.
Pittston Area coach Paul Zaffuto
said he thought Razvillas might
have produced a go-ahead, three-
run homer while the ball was in
the air. Even if the ball fell in at
the fence, the Patriots would have
likely tied it.
The 12
th
-seeded Patriots, who
managed two earlier district wins,
came on strong against pitcher Col-
lin Ferguson, who had held them
hitless through four innings.
Errors cost Pittston Area as
pitcher Matt Mott yielded just one
earned run while throwing a six-
hitter.
Felix Mascelli had a single and
double to lead the Pittston Area of-
fense. Cody Rowan drove in the
only run in the top of the sixth in-
ning. Valley View took a 2-0 lead
when its frst two batters, Liam
Callejas and Connor Kranick,
scored. Kranick fnished 2-for-3
with two runs.
Pittston Area fnished 6-12.
Wyoming Area 10
Berwick 4
Zack Lopatka and Joe Gaveno-
nis drove in four runs each Tuesday
when Wyoming Area pounded host
Berwick, 10-4, in the quarterfnals.
The sixth-seededWarriors scored
in each of the frst four innings to
take a 10-2 lead on the third-seeded
Bulldogs, who won a state champi-
Patriot senior Nick Bolka races home during the 8-run 5th inning against Crestwood.

als in both of his individual
events this weekend in the

110 hurdles.
His 14.97 seconds was
good enough to be one of
16 to reach Saturday morn-
ings semifnals. Making
the fnals in the event, how-
ever, required a better effort,
which DEliseo was able to
produce.
A14.45 was the ffth-best
time in the semifnals, mov-
ing DEliseo into the fnals.
By then, DEliseo had al-
ready locked up his spot in
the 300-meter hurdles fnals.
During the only round of
qualifying Friday afternoon,
DEliseo won his heat. The
District 2 record-holder in
the event won the heat in
40.21 seconds, clinching
the state berth. The time
made DEliseo the last seed
among eight fnalists.

were in the last set of feld
event qualifers Saturday af-
ternoon.
Both are seniors who
were also part of the War-
riors baseball team that

take fourth place.
OBrien was 16

onship in 2008.
Berwick is always one of the
class programs in our area, An-
drewscavage said. They have a
tough team and we went down
there and scored four innings in a
row.
After not allowing a hit in the
frst round against GAR, Berwick
had trouble with Wyoming Area
from the start.
Lopatka fnished 3-for-4.
OBrien, who had a triple, and
Jordan Zezza each added two
hits and scored twice. Walkowiak
drove in three runs.
Gavenonis hit a home run.
Jake Granteed went the distance.
He gave up 11 hits, but limited Ber-
wick to four runs by striking out
seven while walking three.
Pittston Area 11
Crestwood 10
Jordan Houseman singled to start
the bottom of the ffth inning, then
doubled for the last of fve straight
hits that powered an eight-run
comeback in the inning and carried
Pittston Area past Crestwood, 11-
10, in the quarterfnals Tuesday.
Crestwood had just stretched its
lead to 8-3 with four runs in the top
of the inning.
I have confdence in all of
my teammates, no matter what,
Houseman said. We just executed
our coachs plan.
Three infeld errors by the Com-
ets gave the Patriots a chance. Then
the hits started. Michael Delaney,
Pat McGinty, Razvillas and Mott
provided consecutive singles.
Then, Houseman added his two-
run double.
Mott became the winning pitcher
after getting two outs in the ffth in-
ning. That put him in the batting
order for his frst plate appearance
of the season.
He took batting practice all
season, Zaffuto said. That was
his frst at-bat of the season and he
was kind of looking at me like are
you going to take me out? I said
no buddy, you were smashing it in
practice. Its your time. Go ahead.
Justin Glasgow added another
timely performance, working the
fnal two innings for the save.
That allowed Mott to work the
district semifnal with top pitcher
Michael Schwab exhausted after
starting the Crestwood game. Raz-
villas, Houseman and Delaney all
fnished 3-for-4.
Razvillas scored twice and
drove in three runs. Delaney scored
twice. McGinty added two hits.

Cuz theyre Steelers fans
Retired Pittsburgh Steelers on hand for re-opening of bar destroyed by fire
Cuzs Susquehanna Avenue Bar & Grille in Exeter had
been operational less than two years when the Pittsburgh
Steelers-themed business owned by Francesco Stuppino
and Maureen Noone was destroyed by fre on April 30,
2012.
A gleaming new Steelers bar opened Thursday, May 9
next door to the fre site.
Though among the memorabilia lost in the fre were au-
tographed photos and jerseys of former Steelers Jerome
Bettis, Jack Ham, Mean Joe Greene and Rod Woodson,
Western PA native Joe Montana and the late Pittsburgh
Pirates star Roberto Clemente, Stuppino, with the help of
the Steelers largest fan club, the Steel City Mafa, has re-
built his memorabilia collection.
Among the displays are three seats from the Steelers
old home, Three Rivers Stadium; one of 53 lockers from
the vistors locker room with game-worn jerseys hanging
inside; one of six commemorative Super Bowl helmets
signed by Ben Roethlisberger; a Heinz Ward autographed
jersey - and thats just the tip of a black and gold iceberg.
Most of the art, including the Steeler swirl motif on
the outside wall and the Pittsburgh skylines inside the
rest rooms, were created by Pittston artist Bob Stretch
Lewis.
Stuppino and Noone scheduled two grand opening dur-
ing the weekends of May 17, 18 and 19 and 24, 25, 26
with retired Steelers visiting. Retired Steelers Chris Hoke
and Ronin Cole were at Cuzs on May 17 whil Yancey
Thigpen and J.T. Thomas were there on May 18 and Jason
Gildon visited on May 19.
Greg LLoyd, Andy Russell and Louie Lipps were
scheduled for Saturday and Dwayne Woodruff is expec-
tred to be on hand today, May 26.

PEEKING INTO
THE PAST
With Judy Minsavage
Pittston cop nds
missing purse,
called hero in 59
Question #1:
In 1949, in what in-
novation was Greater
Pittston called a leader?
1949 64 YEARS
AGO
In preparation of Me-
morial Day, grass was sown and hedges
were planted around the World War Vet-
erans Monument at Pittston City Hall,
The beautication project was assisted
by local nurseryman Henry Hall.
Quick-thinking members of the Sun-
day Dispatch newsroom would come
up with a rhyming weather banner each
Sunday. The Sunday before Memorial
Day 1949, the weather banner cleverly
stated, Cloudy and warmer is the fore-
cast today. The same holds true for Me-
morial Day.
1959 54 YEARS AGO
Pittston City police ofcer Andy Sch-
evets was often a guy whom residents
didnt like to see approaching, since it
was his job to tag illegally-parked au-
tomobiles. However, to one woman,
he was a hero. After realizing shed left
her purse on a Pittston City bus and not
knowing where to turn, a woman un-
identied in a Sunday Dispatch article ,
called the police station to ask for help.
Shevets was assigned the case. He stud-
ied the bus schedule and gured when
the bus would arrive back in Pittston.
When the bus returned from its daily
route, Shevets found the purse with its
contents intact and returned it to the
grateful woman.
The Wyoming Boosters, a club sup-
porting athletics at Wyoming High
School, wanted to have a presence in
the boroughs Memorial Day event.
What better way than to have a queen
and her court riding in decorated con-
vertibles for the clubs very rst entry
into the parade. Betty Godlewicz was
named Miss Wyoming Booster. She and
her court Margie Sapiego, Mary Ann
Savitsky, Rita Shura and Dorothy
Koslock were 1958 graduates of Wyo-
ming High School and, during their
senior year, aided the club at football
games.
1969 44 YEARS AGO
Student Council presidents Mary
Claire Finnerty, of St. Johns High
School, Michael Butera, of Wyoming
Area and Charles Bechtold, of Pittston
Area, appeared on the front page of the
Sunday Dispatch in a photograph taken
on the River Common in West Pittston.
The Dispatch was the rst newspaper
in the area to use duo-tone to pro-
cess the color photograph showing the
students in front of a bank of colorful
cherry blossom trees. Dispatch press-
men Carl Rhodes Jr., James Spot
ODonnell and William A. Watson Jr.
did the plate making and press work for
the photograph taken by Ken Feeney.
Airman First Class Jerome J. Bil-
lick, of Duryea, received the Meritori-
ous Service award as an aircraft mainte-
nance mechanic while assigned to the
311th Special Operations Squadron. It
was noted that Billicks performance
contributed to the success of the mis-
sions of the Air Force in Southeast Asia.
In Vietnam, the 311th ew cargo and
passengers in support of I and II Corps.
In addition, the unit ew are, com-
munications cover, air evacuation and
search and rescue missions for downed
aircraft.
1979 34 Years Ago
An $8,000 Morris Scholarship spon-
sored by the William T. Morris Foun-
dation was presented to Wyoming Area

Pittston. Ranking in the top 10% of his
class Tomaszewski planned to attend
Kings College. WilliamThomas Morris
was born in West Pittston on July 20,
1884. He was an ofcer in many compa-
nies in the United States and England
but locally served as vice president

THE HEART OF TOWN
At West Side Auto motorists ll up
on gasoline and community spirit
Mornings at West Side Auto
provide much more than the op-
portunity for area residents to ll
their cars with fuel.
They provide owner Ron Git-
kos with the chance to help folks
start their day on a positive note.
Ron is such a beautiful per-
son, said Isabel Parry, stopping
by early on a recent morning.
He has a wonderful smile and a
great attitude.
Its a sentiment expressed by
many. So much so that West Side
Auto, located in the geographic
center or heart of West Pittston,
can be considered the heart of
the town in a variety of ways.
Gitkos embodies the sense of
community and of giving back.
He believes area residents have
given himthe opportunity to suc-
ceed since the business opened
in 1973 when he was just out
of the service, and in the same
spirit he gives back to those who
support him.
As the commander of the DeP-
rimo American Legion Post, Git-
kos is the driving force behind
the Memorial Day parade held
in honor of Lieutenant Jeffrey
DePrimo, killed in Afghanistan
in service to his country. Gitkos
is DePrimos uncle.
He also sponsors Vettes for
Vets, an annual event which
raises funds for area veterans and
provides Corvette afcionados
the opportunity to show off their
vehicles. As a Corvette owner
By GERI GIBBONS

Ron is such a beautiful person. He has a wonderful
smile and a great attitude.

himself, Gitkos, who is also a licensed
airplane pilot and airplane owner, espe-
cially enjoys the time with other Cor-
vette owners.
Its really just a chance for neighbors
to come together and to enjoy each
catching up, he said.
Rosemary Gitkos, Rons wife, is espe-
cially proud of the outreach provided
by the service station and by her family.
We are especially proud of the an-
nual scholarship we provide to a senior
at Wyoming Area, she said.
Rosemary also recalls many young
people who were employed part-time
there throughout high school, many
who went on to become doctors and
lawyers, many serving the community.
Gitkos daughter, Keriann, recalls
the assistance to the community the
station provided during the ooding of
2011. Many needed water, food or the
use of the bathroom. Many also needed
a word of hope and encouragement -
the Gitkos family provided all of that.
Pat Sammon and granddaughter,
Lilly, who live nearby and are regular
visitors at the station, value that sense
of family. Lilly is especially fond of
employee Camille OKeefe, calling the
kiosk from which she pumps gas Ca-
milles little house and looks forward
to her daily visits.
Ron is one of the true unsung he-
roes in our midst, Pat Sammon said.
His service station probably is the
center point of our town but only be-
cause of Ron and his generous com-
munity spirit. He hosts school groups
fundraising car washes, has an annual
car show for the veterans, aptly named
Vettes for Vets.
Ron organizes the annual Memo-
rial Day parade and also nds time to
teach religious education at Immacu-
late Conception Church. And he keeps
the legacy and bravery of his nephew,
Lt. Jeffrey DePrimo, who was killed in
action in Afganistan.
Sammon continued, But his nest
hour was during the ooding caused
by Tropical StormLee, back in Septem-
ber of 11. Ron and his wife, Rosie, kept
the station open around the clock for
weeks and provided free food and wa-
ter, clean bathrooms and telephone ser-
vice for ood victims and those helping
out.
His station became the fueling sta-
tion and command post for the Na-
tional Guard, Red Cross and Salvation
Army. Ron was at his station almost
continuously, certainly for the rst few
days. When his parish, Immaculate
Conception Church, began preparing
cooked dinners for ood victims and
helpers, good old Ron and Rosie made
house calls to deliver food to those who
couldnt make it to the church.
The Gitkos family treasures past
memories while looking to the future.
Keriann and her anc, Kaz Vermac,
both work at the service center and
dont see that changing.
As yet another customer arrives
to ll up, Keriann smiled and said,
Thats Denise. Shes making the cook-
ies for my bridal shower.
That is the sense of community and
family that keeps customers coming
back smiling.

Chris Schultz, Pat Flannery,
Edythe Walsh, Bill Murphy,
Bill Watson Sr and Stanley
Serino, captain. In 1979, after

gar Store were held under the
lights at a West Pittston sta-
dium, making Greater Pittston
the rst in the area to offer the

Bank donates to Pittston
Librarys capital campaign
Ofcials of the Pittston

addition of 5,175 square feet
that will house the Childrens
Wing (Cosgrove Annex) and a
new Community Conference
Meeting Room that will hold
125 people.
This donation represents part
of the ve-year, $5,000 pledge
by the bank and represents an
important component of com-
munity support for the con-
struction of the addition which
is scheduled to start before
the end of this calendar year.
The bank is a key part of
community life and supports
the role that the library plays
and will continue to play in
coming years, said Barbara
Quinn, chair of the library
board of trustees.
Library Anne Hogya stated,
This donation is a signicant
part of sustaining the library
as it seeks to grow through
the addition and adds valuable
services for youngsters and
adults.
The campaign is co-chaired
by Pat Solano and Tom Tigue,
Greater Pittston leaders well
known for their services to the
community and for their back-
ing of projects such as the
library expansion. The
Campaign Committee includes
27 community-minded citizens
who have lent their talent to
enhancing the $1.3 million
goal. Howard J. Grossman is
the fund aising director.

WAC sets last day of school for June 11
Soon the special place that once was
the St. John the Baptist Church, school,
convent, rectory, library, and the Mon-
signor Super Sports Center will be
marked with a special monument when
a memorial marker is placed near the
site of St. Johns Church.
Were you one of the thousands of stu-
dents who attended St. Johns School?
Were you baptized, married, conrmed
in St. Johns Church? Were you a par-
ent, grandparent or friend who at-
tended a basketball game or play in St.
Johns Athletic Center?
Then you will want to be aware of
the monument that will be dedicated
to all the Slovak people, priests and
nuns who had a positive effect through-
out the area.
The memorial marker will consist of
a granite cross centered between two
black granite stones. One stone will
have a picture of the church and one
will have a picture of the school. Con-
tributors names and dedication date
will be on the back of the market.
Also noted will be the founding site
of the PA Slovak, Roman, and Greek
Catholic Unionin 1893. This union was
a fraternal designed to help and assist
the many Slovak immigrants who la-
bored in the mines. The Pennsylvania
Slovak Union is now incorporated with
the First Catholic Slovak union.
Dedication is planned for June 23
and 24, the Feast of St. John the Bap-
tist.
For any additional information, do-
nation names or to make a donation,
