Ross Farnsworth and the roots 

of Sunland Springs Village 

By Ed Leahy 

It’s been 50 

years now since 

Joe Farnsworth 

and his youngest 

child, Ross, started 

down a path 

that led to the 

building of over 

10,000 homes, 

with 1,000 or so 

more in the offing 

at SSV, and 

four communities 

the size of 

lots of America’s 

small towns. At 

the beginning of 

their adventure, 

however, this 

outcome was 

anything but assured. 

For one thing, for many years Joe Farnsworth was in the car 

business. In the 1920’s he sold General Motors products in Mexico 

until Mexican political problems caused him to leave. He returned 

to Mesa where he opened up a car dealership which he operated 

until business was depleted by The Great Depression. Like many 

Americans of that time, he had to find another line of work. He 

found it as a public health inspector for Maricopa County, a job 

that got him around the area, a fact that later proved useful to him 

and his son Ross. 

As for a young Ross, he also started his adult life on a different 

road. He’d been a football player in High School and later played 

one year at Arizona State. An LDS mission kept him from playing 

longer. Ross ultimately graduated from ASU with a degree in 

General Studies and Political Science and then a Masters in Public 

Education. For two years, until the pivotal year of 1959, he taught 

at Mesa High School. 

It was also in the late 50’s that Joe Farnsworth was struck by 

the growth beginning to stir in the area. So, by now in his 60’s, 

he bought some land and built a few houses. Meanwhile, in the 

West Valley a man name Ben Schlipher had an idea for a new kind 

of community, a retirement community. He called it Youngtown 

and even got some national publicity on the “Today Show” hosted 

by Dave Garroway. Intrigued by the possibilities Schlipher created 

with Youngstown, Joe and Ross Farnsworth sold some stock, 

raising capital to create another community for retirees which 

they named Dreamland Villa. They called it Dreamland because 

Joe’s wife Annie’s favorite song was “I’ll meet you tonight in 

Dreamland.” 

Arizona was beginning to develop in 1959, but it was still 

mostly farmland and a far cry from where it is today. In fact, 

the road leading to Dreamland was a dirt one and some in Mesa 

wondered why the Farnsworths were building their development 

“way out there.” Then the competition suddenly got tougher. 

Del Webb, a much bigger and more famous player, entered the 

market and Ross thought their fledgling Farnsworth venture was 

finished for sure. 

Not one to fold his tent easily, Ross bought some outdoor 

advertising on the road to the new Del Webb site urging people to 

“See Dreamland before you decide.” The advertising helped and 

instead Farnsworth Development was off to the races. But that 

advertising wasn’t all that made the Farnsworth venture succeed. 

Neither Joe nor Ross were experts in the field -- so they took their 

direction from their customers. Unlike Del Webb, Farnsworth was 

willing to tailor the houses they built to suit their buyers’ wishes. 

In fact, if you had the plans, they’d even build you a custom house. 

Del Webb, on the other hand, took the more assembly line, efficiency 

first approach and built houses that buyers had to take just 

as they were offered. But that wasn’t all. A preferred Farnsworth 

building method was block construction. In practical terms over 

the long run, block construction is more durable and, with added 

insulation, more energy efficient -- a feature important in a climate 

that demands keeping a house cool in summer and forward looking 

in a now increasingly energy-conscious America. As time moved 

on, Farnsworth homes kept adapting to the market and today are 

pre-wired for cable and the computer age. But simply building 

better houses doesn’t create a community. That takes recreational 

facilities. 

Once again Farnsworth followed the directives of its customers. 

At Dreamland, their buyers were into shuffleboard, swimming 

and golf. So Ross Farnsworth provided facilities for them. As time 

moved on, buyers expressed a wider range of preferences. Once 

again Farnsworth listened and added more facilities. At Sunland 

Village homeowners wanted tennis courts included in the mix. 

Residents of Sunland Village East wanted all the above and a place 

to play softball. Today, here at Sunland Springs Village, we enjoy 

a wide range of activities and now a Softball Field considered by 

many as the finest in the East Valley. And that’s not all. The SSV 

HOA has encouraged a high level of community volunteership, a 

full compliment of clubs and homeowner committees topped off by 

an Advisory Board of committee chairs that help keep Farnsworth 

management focused on the needs of the homeowners. 

It’s a long road Ross Farnsworth traveled from 1959 to 2009, 

Farnsworth Development’s 50th year in business. By any measure 

Joe and Ross’s dreams have been more than realized and that 

happened due to the necessary application of a simple principle 

-- pay attention to the needs and wants of your customers. That 

way, instead of selling houses to passive consumers, you turn many 

thousands of buyers into collaborators who help make your project 

live and keep your community abreast of the times.

Facilities 

and Services

Every summer we take advantage of the off season quiet time to undertake larger maintenance 

projects. We’ve already gotten off to a good start this summer. 

Crushed Granite Top Dressing 

For three years running we have replenished the crushed granite in the landscaped areas 

of the Master Association. When landscaping is first installed, the newly applied crushed 

granite looks great. Over the years, however, weather and foot traffic cause the fines to get 

buried and the surface begins to look sparse. We are on a program to apply 100 tons of ½- 

inch granite per year until all of the oldest areas are replenished. 

Two years ago we covered the Springwood median from Baseline to Mendoza. Last 

year we did most of the common area around the recreation center. This year we completed 

the recreation center area and completed the Springwood median from Mendoza to Navarro. 

We also put granite along the golf course on the west side of Springwood from Baseline to 

Kilarea. Our landscaper had enough left over to go about 70 feet along Baseline east from the 

monument sign. This project was paid for from the Sunland Springs Village Reserve Fund. 

Spa Grouting 

We replaced the grouting in the spa. That’s the strip of grouting between the top tile and 

the pool deck, and you can’t see it unless you are in the spa. The job was done by Terry, our 

maintenance man, with a great deal of assistance from homeowner Pete Crocenzi. 

Shuffleboard Resurfacing 

The shuffleboards have been resurfaced. The boards are about 10 years old, and they were 

due for resurfacing. The timing couldn’t be better because Sunland Springs Village is hosting the 

Western Shuffleboard Association Team Tournament in November 2009. Hosting this tournament 

is quite an honor. Over 400 shufflers from several states and Canada will participate.

CREDIT CARDS: THE NEW RULES 

Consumers cheer. Banks complain. 

provided by Kevin Humphrey 

With the stroke of a pen on May 22, President 

Obama authorized major changes to the 

way American credit card issuers do business. 

In the President’s view, these are 

“common-sense reforms designed to protect 

consumers.” 1 Consumer advocates are rejoicing, 

but banks are already contending that 

the reforms might be bad for cardholders in 

the long term. 

Here is a rundown of the notable changes 

within the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility 

and Disclosure Act (CARD). Some 

of these changes will happen in 2010; others 

will occur within 90 days. 2 

No surprise interest rate increases. If your 

credit card company wants to hike interest 

rates, it will now have to inform you at least 

45 days beforehand and tell you why in writing. 

3 

New restrictions on retroactive rate increases. 

Under the new law, the interest 

rate on an existing balance cannot increase 

unless the customer is more than 60 days 

behind on a payment. Get this, though: even 

if that happens, the credit card company will 

have to restore the prior, lower interest rate 

if you pay the minimum balance on time for 

the six months that follow. 3 

Statements mailed 21 days in advance. The 

new rules say that your monthly bill has to 

be mailed to you by the credit card company 

at least 21 days prior to the payment due 

date. 2 

Pay before 5:00pm EST and you are on 

time. That’s right: all credit card payments 

made before 5:00pm Eastern Standard Time 

will be considered paid on that day. If your 

payment due date falls on a holiday, a weekend, 

or any day on which the credit card 

issuer is closed for business, your payment 

cannot be subject to late fees. 2 

You can choose to attack the highest interest 

rates. Do you pay different rates for 

different kinds of credit card transactions? 

Under the new law, you will be able to apply 

any payment above the minimum to your 

highest-rate balance. 2 

More protection for teens and young 

adults. The new legislation bars companies 

from issuing cards to most people under age 

21. Those younger than 21 will only be able 

to use a credit card under one of the following 

conditions: 

 

They can prove they have the means to 

pay the debt (or their parent or guardian 

promises to pay it off if they default) 

 

They are emancipated minors 

They are designated secondary cardholders 

on a parent or legal guardian’s account. 2,4 

No exploitation of college students. College 

-age Americans will still be able to get 

credit, but within reason. Account limits will 

be either 20% of their annual income or 

$500, whichever is greater. So this market 

will grow less attractive for credit card companies. 

2 

An end to universal default. If you make a 

late payment to one credit card issuer, other 

issuers will not be able to hike your rate as a 

consequence. 2 

Cardholder permission for over-limit fees. 

Credit card companies now have to get your 

OK before they can process a transaction 

that would put your account over its limit. 2 

Why are credit card companies crying? Cut 

out all the nickel-and-diming, and credit 

card issuers will be left with lower revenues. 

So where are they going to get the money 

back? Think reduced rewards for cardholders. 

Think new and inventive annual fees. 

Edward Yingling, president and CEO of the 

American Bankers Association, fears that 

now “less credit will be available generally, 

which means some consumers and small businesses 

will not be able to obtain credit cards 

at all, particularly younger people and startup 

small businesses.” But Sen. Chris Dodd (D- 

Conn.), the driver behind CARD in Congress, 

thinks such claims sound “a little like 

Chicken Little.” 5

REVISED VOICE POLICY 

Effective March 19, 2009 

The Editorial Board of the VOICE has met to re-evaluate its 

Editorial Policy. We determined that we needed to be firm in our 

requirements for submission of material for all upcoming issues. 

Because of high traffic during the season, space in the VOICE 

becomes limited. This can necessitate reducing the size of articles; 

our current limit is 350 words. Space limitations may require cutting 

an article; therefore it should be written with the most important 

information at the beginning so it can be cut from the bottom up. 

Articles are due in the Activities Office by Noon on the due date; 

it is preferred that they be submitted by email to voice@ssvhoa.com 

with the subject including the word VOICE and a Microsoft Word 

2003 or earlier file attached. Submitting a Word file will eliminate 

retyping errors. Please include the full name of the person writing the article 

plus a telephone contact number for our questions. Any photos to be included with an 

article should be submitted separately in a .jpg format and not be embedded in the article; 

this ensures clarity of the picture. 

Deadlines are going to mean just that, a deadline. NO MATERIAL RECEIVED 

AFTER THE PUBLISHED DEADLINE WILL BE ACCEPTED. If material will not 

be available at the deadline or there are any unanticipated changes, the Editorial Board 

must be notified with the expected due date. This information should also be addressed 

by email to voice@ssvhoa.com. Further, NO ADDITIONS will be accepted after the 

material has been given to the publisher. These rules are to assure that we have a finished 

paper on schedule.

VILLAGE VOICE OF HOPE 

Pastor Milt 

A commentary of 

our present generation 

might read like a news 

headline, “Stress Related 

Factor the Cause”. The 

truth of the matter is we 

find a reason for anything 

we do in a negative form 

and blame it on stress. 

The most operative 

word available and at the 

tip of our tongues is the 

word “stress”. Stress has 

a negative reactive force 

behind it. Mr. Webster 

defines stress as being 

“a force that strains or 

deforms”. Pressure and 

tension, mental or physical, 

appears to enter our 

lives at varied seasons of 

life with great force and 

often brings deformity. 

The good news, not read 

in any headline but packed 

with release and contentment, 

is that God is eager 

to give you His operative 

instrument of peace. Words 

spoken to us by the Son of 

God are a powerful guide 

and gift of assurance and 

are found in the Gospel of 

John 14:27: “Peace I leave 

with you; my peace I give 

you. I do not give to you as 

the world gives. Do not let 

your hearts be troubled and 

do not be afraid.” To that I 

say a hearty “Amen.” 

Peace is the release 

of stress. Stress forges 

its way into our spirit and 

mind which affects our 

bodies. Is it any wonder 

there is so much pain and 

ill health? Stress deforms 

and strains emotions, wills 

and purposes. Proverbs, a 

gathering of real life realities, 

reads in 14:30: “A 

heart at peace gives life to 

the body, but envy (and 

stress) rots the bones.” 

Well said and a truthful 

result of allowing stress 

that comes from envy and 

strife. The peace Jesus 

offers is not what the 

world offers. His peace 

is within you, a force that 

removes stress. 

You are welcome to 

attend Springs Chapel 

Worship every Sunday 

at 9 AM in the beautiful 

Springs Auditorium. 

Messages and music of 

the Prince of Peace are 

faithfully taught and experienced 

in worship. 

Join your neighbors and 

friends and be blessed 

with peace.

Computer Club 

Jane E. Harrel, President • 

Jane.harrel1@cox.net 

We are in the midst of summer 

and the hot weather, but 

inside the Superstition Room 

it’s cool, both temperature-wise 

and subject-wise. We had a 

great presentation from Allen 

Schaeffer on the SSVHOA 

website and from Greg Lutz on 

financial dealings on the web. 

Now we can all go forth and 

multiply our millions. 

This month Dick Simmon 

is bringing us two sessions 

using Mac Computers. He 

will be demonstrating how a 

Mac works, showing some 

videos and other features of a 

Macintosh computer. Then we 

will show side by side usage 

of a Mac and the Vista operating 

systems. No, it won’t be 

“dueling computers;” it will 

just give you an idea of what 

each computer can do, the 

accessibility and speed. No 

judgments will be made. 

In July Jane Harrel will 

demonstrate Word, Email, Excel 

and/or File Management. 

That means: How to make 

folders, name documents, 

retrieve documents and attach 

to emails. August will be too 

hot to think, but we’ll come 

up with something – you just 

wait and see. 

Don’t forget in September 

we have scheduled a 

“picnic,” including a field 

trip to Phoenix-Mesa Gateway 

Airport with lunch following. 

We’ll carpool from 

the Activities Office, have 

a guided tour of the airport 

from a bus and then lunch in 

the little deli there. Sounds 

like fun, so stay tuned for 

more information. 

Summers are a great time 

to come and get to know us in 

the Computer Club because 

no dues are collected or attendance 

taken. We don’t even 

have business meetings. We 

just have fun and you will 

learn lots. So if you aren’t currently 

a member of the Computer 

Club, come to a meeting 

and give us a test drive. 

REMEMBER: We meet 

the first and third Wednesdays 

through September at 10 AM 

in the Superstition Room. 

Softball Spotlight 

Linda “Scooter” Granzow, Coordinator of Team Promotion, SSV Softball Club 

Welcome to June; it’s officially summer now and the heat is on! The SSV Softball Club has 

already wound down most scheduled activities for the season. We still want to remind our fans/supporters 

that the Softball Club continues sales of soda pop and snacks at all Thursday evening Bingo 

games, beginning when Auditorium doors open around 5:30 PM and ending after intermission. 

Proceeds raised for the Softball Club treasury are used toward Softball Field upkeep and 

team(s) equipment, etc. Your generous assistance to make our varied fundraisers successful 

is greatly appreciated throughout the year! 

Speaking of fundraisers, next season we plan to reprise our now-legendary series of Pancake 

Breakfasts and our annual Hamburger Feast. To properly thank the SSV community at 

large, we will also conduct our third annual Community Fun Day in November 2009. Stay 

tuned for all of the pertinent details as we approach our autumn season. 

Thanks to the following additional members of the Softball Club Board, re-elected in 

March (besides yours truly): Dave Chase, Shirl Sutor and Paul Hensley (groundskeeper – a 

BIG job!). Our past presidents Dick Paulin and Rex Smith also deserve a commendation, as

Clubs and Activities / From the Board 

Karaoke Party! 

Monica Rae Stein 

We saw lots of cowboy 

hats and boots at our 

May 8 Karaoke Party as 

we gave tribute to country 

music. Pat Wohland, 

along with Joe and Kathy 

Fellhauer, did a bang-up 

job with the decorations. 

We celebrated our May 

birthdays and introduced 

our new sound system. 

Dan Radeka started the 

evening with “I’m so 

Lonesome” followed by 

Ivan and Monica Rae 

Stein singing “My Maria” 

and “Oklahoma Swing.” 

The girls wanted to “Feel 

Like a Woman” and the 

guys sang “All My Ex’s 

Live in Texas.” Dan enticed 

Kathy Mitchell to 

duo on “Somewhere Out 

There” and Lyn Mineo 

and Ronnie Cohen sang 

“Ring of Fire.” Newcomer 

Mary Williams 

and Monica harmonized 

on “Tennessee Waltz” to 

the delight of the dancers. 

Dan sang about “The 

Gambler” and was joined 

by John Herr for “Hey 

Good Lookin’.” Lyn, 

Kathy and Judi Ofelt sang 

about “Mr. Sandman” 

and Ivan and Ronnie 

said they “Should’ve 

Been a Cowboy.” 

Wayne Havelka was 

a “Boy Named Sue” 

and Bud West and John 

sang “Bye Bye Love.” 

Jim Wysoski gave us 

“He’ll Have to Go” and 

Doris Havelka and Judi 

were “Walkin’ After 

Midnight.” Ivan entertained 

with “I Love 

this Bar” and Doris, Ronnie 

and Judi with “These 

Boots Are Made for Walking.” 

Judi made quite a 

picture wearing Wayne’s 

boots! Bud sang “After 

the Lovin’” and was 

joined by John for “All I 

Have to Do is Dream.” 

We had great participation 

from our cowgirls 

who gave us “Delta 

Dawn,” “Mommas Don’t 

Let Your Babies Grow 

Up to be Cowboys” and 

“Paper Roses.” The cowboys 

sang “Dang Me” 

and “Make the World Go 

Away.” Kathy couldn’t 

find her salt as she joined 

Dan, Ivan, Monica, Mary 

and Jim for “Margaritaville.” 

Mary and Jan 

Jelley sang “Take Me 

Home Country Roads” 

and Jan was joined by 

Bud for “Your Cheatin’ 

Heart.” Our next party is 

June 5 from 7 - 9 PM in 

the Superstition Room. 

The theme is rock and 

roll. We’ll be singing 

those juke box favorites. 

Admission is only $1. 

Bring your own drinks 

and a snack to share.

Village Homeowners 

Association 

Monthly Meeting 

April 28, 2009 

Auditorium 

The meeting was called to order John Lippert at 9:45 a.m. 

after distributing a copy of the Master Association financial 

report for the period ended March 31, 2009, to the audience. 

He introduced Jeff Decker, Chairman of the HOA Advisory 

Board and Vice President of Farnsworth Homes, and Jane 

Harrel as recording secretary. 

In reviewing the financial report, Mr. Lippert highlighted 

the Cox Revenue Share received of $13,823, which exceeds 

the budgeted amount by $2,000. He also pointed out that the 

Janitorial expenses were more than budget but this expense 

should decrease during the summer months. He also pointed 

out that there was a problem with termites in the Springs Card 

room and bees were swarming twice at the auditorium entrance 

and had to be eliminated. 

A homeowner reported scum accumulating above the 

water line in the large pool and wondered what could be 

done. Mr. Lippert stated that spring break and the increase 

number of visitors always causes a problem. This tile has 

been cleaned for several years by the morning aerobics group. 

Terry changes the water in the spa every week. 

Mr. Lippert also stated that the Mixed Doubles Tennis 

Tournament held here was very well run by the Tennis Club. 

He also noted that the Pool Monitoring Committee of Joanne 

Chapin and Myra Lillie was doing a good job and made for 

a quiet spring break. 

In November there will be the Western States Shuffleboard 

Tournament here, and it is expected that 400 shufflers 

from all Western United States and Canada will be here. 

Twelve of the 16 courts are being resurfaced the other four 

were done last year, so the area will be in great shape. A 

second sunscreen will be added as well. 

Other improvements in the sports facilities include a new 

sunscreen in the tennis courts paid for by the Tennis Club; a 

concrete pad behind the dugouts at the softball field; Karaoke 

purchased some new equipment that was approved (it will be 

put into use on May 8th as reported by Dan Radeka). Four 

new air fresheners were installed in the fitness center; supposed 

to be odorless and neutralize the air. Mr. Lippert extolled the 

abilities of the volunteer workers here in the Village and the 

work they do, such as regrouting the tile at the spa and fixing 

a leak found in the dishwasher in the auditorium kitchen. 

With regard to sales of new homes, Mr. Decker stated that 

they are slow but steady with a couple each month. We should 

be able to reach our goal of 50 this year, he stated. 

In response to questions from the audience, Mr. Decker 

noted that the infrastructure was in at the corner of Signal Butte 

and Baseline, but he didn’t know if Walgreen’s had applied 

for their building permit. He has tried to contact the owners 

of the self-storage units at Guadalupe and Signal Butte, but 

no response. There no information on when the stoplight will 

be working at that same corner. 

There being no further business to come before the Association, 

the meeting adjourned at 10:03 a.m. 

Respectfully submitted, Jane E. Harrel, Recording Secretary

65 Year Old Grandmother Ends 

Frustration With Dentures… 

Experiences Sheer Joy of Gorgeous Strong Teeth, 

and Re-Ignites Her Marriage 

Phyllis Hicks had been hiding 

something. This busy grandmother ran the 

family business while taking care of her 

grandkids. On the outside, it looked like she 

“had it all”, she was struggling with an ever 

increasingly frustrating problem that plagued 

her for 20 years. 

Phyllis had lost her teeth at the early age of 45. This caused her to be 

confined to the limitations of dentures. Not being able to eat the foods that she 

treasured and loved. 

Through time and nature, Phyllis had lost most of the bone that she 

was relying on to support those dentures. Due to the fact that her dentures no 

longer fit, she was constantly suffering from excessive rubbing and sores. Her 

deepest fear that her teeth might pop out at any moment was paralyzing her in 

social settings. 

The “Miraculous” Solution that Most Seniors Have Zero Clue About 

Fortunately for Phyllis, startling advancements in dentistry provided 

her with options that weren’t available for her in the past 20 years. Now, 

Phyllis is laughing, smiling, and enjoying those grandchildren with the 

confidence and pleasure she desires. Her friends now admire her new 

beauty… and some have actually admitted gossiping about what plastic 

surgery she had done. After all, “she is looking 10 years younger! 

Phyllis Got Her Life Back 

At this point, you may be wondering …

Solution, Too?
