Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Dept. has a computer-generated program
called “Are You OK?” (RUOK). It is a computer-generated call intended for
senior citizens (over 55) and disabled persons who live alone and could
benefit from a daily check. A computer will generate a call each morning,
at about the same time and the participant chooses a time frame.
A voice will ask, “Are you OK?” After this, all they have to do is hang up
the phone. If the participant goes out of town or leaves the residence for
any time, you just temporarily un-subscribe and re-subscribe when you
return. If the call goes unanswered, the computer will call back 3 times at
15-minute intervals. If there is still no answer, the Sheriff will dispatch a
deputy or the local police. They will have with them a print out of information
on the person that is not responding to the calls. This program was
established by FBC Sheriff Milton Wright, Commissioner’s Court and Ken
Whitt (FBC Sheriff’s Citizens Academy Alumni Assoc.) in 1998. Many police
chiefs in the county are also participating in the program and will proceed
with the welfare check for citizens of their community. To request more
information or to enroll in this free and very beneficial program, please
call the Sheriff’s Dept. at 281-341-4704.

Mother’s Day...May 13, 2018
Mother’s Day History and Fun Facts
Did you know that more phone calls are made on
Mother’s Day than on any other day of the year?
In fact, phone traffic has been known to spike by
nearly 40% on this holiday honoring motherhood.
It’s a traditional holiday that is observed
throughout the world in different ways. In the
U.S., mothers are most typically presented with
flowers, cards and other gifts. (Though in 2016,
about 55% of consumers took Mom out.) But
since this is common knowledge, we wanted to
go one step further and learn why Mother’s Day
exists at all. Here’s what we learned.
The History of Mother’s Day in America
The American version of Mother’s Day was first
celebrated in 1908. It became an official holiday
just 6 years later in 1914. Anna Jarvis is credited
with creating the U.S. holiday and leading the
charge to have it officially added to the national
calendar. She first conceived of the idea after the
death of her mother, Anna Reeves Jarvis, in 1905.
The story goes like this:
• With financial backing from John Wanamaker
- owner of the famous department store chain
- she organized the first-ever celebration at a
Methodist Church in Grafton, WV in May 1908. She
wanted to recognize the sacrifices that mothers
make for their children.
• On that same day, thousands also attended a
Mother’s Day event at a Wanamaker’s in Philadelphia.
• Building on the success of that first Mother’s Day
event, Jarvis began a 6-year campaign to have it
added to the national calendar. She argued that
American holidays were biased towards male
achievements.
• By 1912 Mother’s Day had been widely adopted
at the state and local levels.
• In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed a
measure officially establishing the 2 nd Sunday
in May as Mother’s Day.
• Jarvis’ vision for Mother’s Day was a day of personal
celebration. To her, the day involved wearing
a white carnation in honor of mothers and visiting
one’s mother or attending a church service.
• Florists, greeting card companies and other
retailers had other plans though and by 1920
Jarvis was fully disillusioned by what the holiday
had become, going so far as to openly campaign
against all Mother’s Day profiteers. She went on
to file lawsuits against groups using the term
“Mother’s Day” and spent most of her personal
wealth in legal fees.
• After pushing for 6 years to make the day official,
Jarvis eventually disowned the holiday
and actively lobbied to have it removed from
the American calendar. This effort of course was
unsuccessful
Early Mother’s Day Incarnations
While Anna Jarvis is credited with the official
creation of the holiday, her mother - Anna Reeves
Jarvis - is known for having founded “Mother’s
Day Work Clubs” back in the 1860’s. The goal of
these clubs was to teach local women how to
properly care for their children…a tradition that
is still in existence today with local Moms groups!
Another similar effort aimed at united and celebrating
mothers included Julia Ward Howe’s
“Mother’s Day Proclamation,” a call to action
for mothers to unite in promoting world peace.
Howe later campaigned for a Mother’s Peace Day
to be recognized every June 2 nd . However, none
of these or other efforts in the 1800’s ever caught
on beyond the local level.
Traditional Mother’s Day Celebrations
The primary means of celebrating moms on
Mother’s Day in the U.S. continues to be with
flowers and other gifts. In fact, Anna Jarvis would
be supremely disappointed to learn that it has
become one of the biggest holidays for consumer
spending.
However, the holiday has also been used to
advance feminist causes. For example, in the
1970’s women’s groups were known to use the
attention generated by the holiday to create
awareness for the need for equal rights and
access to childcare.
In many other parts of the world, the timing of
Mother’s Day aligns more closely with the historical
observance of “Mothering Sunday.” Largely a
European tradition, Mothering Sunday fell on the
fourth Sunday in Lent and was originally seen as a
time when the faithful would return home to the
church. Over time, the observance of Mothering
Sunday faded and eventually merged with the
secular traditions associated with the American
Mother’s Day.
Mother’s Day Fun Facts
• About 25% of all flowers purchased throughout
the year are for Mother’s Day
• Carnations are often associated with Mother’s
Day - they are said to be made from the tears’ of
Jesus’ mother Mary when she wept at his feet.
• Pink and red carnations mean that a person’s
mother is living, while white carnations are symbolic
of mothers who have passed away.
• Approximately $21 billion is spent on Mother’s
Day gifts and celebrations.
• In what was formerly Yugoslavia, children
would tie up their mothers on Mother’s Day.
The only way she could get free was to pay them
with treats.
• In Greek mythology, the maternal goddess Rhea
was honored during the spring festivals.
No matter how you observe this holiday, there is
no doubt that our mothers have a great influence
on our lives - not just on Mother’s Day but every
day of the year.

‘CHIP CLINIC
May 5, 2018, 11 AM-2 PM
KCCC at Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming - Richmond
9711 S. Mason Rd, Richmond, Texas
Katy Community ‘Chip Clinic, a local non-profit, volunteer-run organization
is pleased to announce its spring schedule of upcoming events to serve the
needs of Katy-area residents. The organization offers $10 microchipping
for pets with FREE lifetime registration! What is a microchip? A microchip
is a rice-sized transponder that is injected between a pet’s shoulder blades
with a needle. When getting ‘chipped, most animals don’t notice any difference
from when receiving yearly vaccinations. A microchip does NOT
have a GPS locator on it, but as long as the account is kept up-to-date,
its number will be linked to the pet owner’s contact information. The
microchip account is easily accessible online and pet owners can update
as needed and even add pet’s photo and veterinarian info.
Pet owners do not need to live in the same town as these upcoming
events to take advantage of this service, but PLEASE NOTE: cash only and
MUST bring rabies certification paperwork (not just the collar tag) - for
volunteer and attendee safety. There is a limit of two pets per family,
unless pre-approved. Cats should be in a secure carrier and dogs should
be on a no-slip leash (please no retractable leashes).
For more information on these events or to see the upcoming calendar,
please follow the group at: www.facebook.com/KatyCommunityChipClinic/.

Monday May 28, 2018
Memorial Day, as a formal holiday, is an
American holiday. It is celebrated to remember
military service members who have died
in the line of duty. Memorial Day was originally
called Decoration Day, as the holiday
was centered on decorating the graves of
those who had fallen in the Civil War.
HISTORY
There is much debate as to the location
where Memorial Day originated from. Sometime
during the late years of the Civil War
(1861-1865), groups began decorating the
graves of their loved ones who had died in
battle. Depending on the source, there are
perhaps over a dozen locations that claim to
be the town where the practice began being
observed - the birthplace of Memorial Day.
Some of these towns include Columbus,
Mississippi; Macon, Georgia; Richmond,
Virginia; Boalsburg, Pennsylvania and Carbondale,
Illinois.
There is evidence that the tradition could
have started in towns in either the North
or the South. VA.gov states that on April 25,
1866, in Columbus, Mississippi, a local group
of women went to decorate the graves of
Confederate soldiers. They noticed barren
graves of Union soldiers and decided to
place flowers there in remembrance. Another
site, usmemorialday.org, states that a
hymn published in 1867 called “Kneel
Where Our Loved Ones are Sleeping” carried
a dedication “To the Ladies of the South
who are Decorating the Graves of the Confederate
Dead.” Wikipedia says that by 1865
the practice was already widespread in the
North. It is likely that the tradition began in
many locations independently, with many
variations on the same idea. Over time, as
word spread, these traditions could have
expanded from town to town.
In 1866, in a town in New York called Waterloo,
a drugstore owner named Henry Welles
suggested that the town shops close on May
5 th to commemorate the soldiers buried at
Waterloo Cemetery who had died during
the Civil War. Two years later in Waterloo,
on May 5, 1868, General John Logan issued
a declaration that Decoration Day should be
observed nationwide. The declaration said
that May 30 th would be designated as a day
to decorate the graves of “comrades who
died in defense of their country.” According
to History.com, President James Garfield
gave a speech at Arlington National Cemetery
on that day. In 1966, President Lyndon
Johnson and the Congress of the United
States stated that Waterloo was the official
birthplace of Memorial Day and the official
date of origin was May 30, 1868.
In 1882, the name of the holiday was
changed from Decoration Day to Memorial
Day. After World War I, the holiday was
expanded to remember soldiers from all
American Wars. In 1971, Richard Nixon made
Memorial Day a national holiday that was to
be celebrated on the last Monday in May.
MEMORIAL DAY TODAY
Today Memorial Day is celebrated across
the United States. Regardless of where it
originated, it is an important holiday that remembers
those that died for the country and
serves to remind people of the costly price of
war. There are many formal ceremonies that
take place in observance. Most of these are
held in local communities and can be found
by contacting a local Veterans of Foreign
Wars office or local city government agency.
A few traditional events are listed below.
Laying of the wreath at Arlington Cemetery -
Often, the President of the United States will
lay a wreath at Arlington Cemetery on the
annual observance of Memorial Day. This
will usually be accompanied by a speech.
Remembrance and Moments of Silence -
People nationwide participate in parades
and still partake in decorating graves with
wreaths or flowers. Many people will pause
for moments of silence in memoriam.

McQueen, Charles Bronson, James Garner

non-profit organization dedicated to improving
the quality of life for underprivileged, abused

left behind. The scope of our support is limited
only by the availability of resources. Our goal,
the rainbow that we chase, is to leave no
legitimate request for assistance unanswered.

to help a great cause? We are always in need
of volunteers to help throughout the year.
This is a great way for school age kids to get in
community service hours. Do you have gently

any given time. Texas has the highest rate of
homeless youth in the U.S.
StandUp For Kids needs supplies for our

clothing, counseling and a safe environment
for the homeless youth of Houston. If you or

how you can help, visit our website at www.

to communicate encouragement and express
gratitude to those serving in the United States
Armed Forces. Adopt A US Soldier is sustained

what they needed, his response was as follows:
“No requests, just don’t want to be forgotten.”
-LCPL O.J.T. III When registering for Adopt A US
Soldier your involvement can range from writing
letters and sending postcards, to mailing care
packages full of items a soldier may need or
want. Handwritten letters are most important

GARDENING TIPS FOR MAY
Warm weather means our gardens and landscapes are growing
fast. Here are some tasks to keep your landscape beautiful and
productive:
Flowers: Time to plant summer blooming perennials and annuals
including plumbago, zinnias, angelonia, purslane, lobularia, sunflowers,
yellow bells, pride of Barbados, duranta and bat-faced cuphea.
Vegetables: May is a great time to plant, from seed or nursery plants,
okra, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, winter squash, pumpkins, basil,
peppers, lima beans, eggplant, garlic chives and Malabar greens. If
you don’t want to dedicate an area of your yard, consider planting
here and there in your flowerbeds. Edible landscaping is a popular
new trend!
Lawns: Water 1/2 to 1” of irrigation per week. A rain gauge or straight
sided container (such as a tuna fish can) will help you know how long
to run your irrigation system to apply 1/2”.
Weeding: Hand pull or hoe weeds while they are still young or better
yet, maintain a 3” layer of mulch in all vegetable and flowerbeds to
deter weeds from getting a start.
Pruning: Remove spent blooms on spring and summer annuals to
promote new blooms.
Fertilizing: Fertilize flowerbeds and vegetable gardens w/slow
release organic fertilizer.
Water: Deep soakings between rain events is better than frequent
light sprinkling.
Birds: Spring migration continues until mid-May. Clean bird feeders!
Replace water in bird baths to avoid creating mosquito breeding
spots.
