Name It<br />
…by Kitty Maiden<br />
There are so many veteran<br />
groups and organizations in<br />
our area that contribute to the<br />
well-being of our veterans.<br />
A couple of years ago, a Stand Down<br />
was begun to assist the homeless veterans<br />
in our area. The Stand Down is<br />
a one-day event involving community<br />
leaders who offer their services and area<br />
veterans organizations, churches, etc.<br />
help by making donations of food and<br />
needed supplies.<br />
Efforts have been made to locate a<br />
place for the homeless to live on the<br />
East Coast of Florida.<br />
Recently, in conversation with a<br />
lady who sings with Company G, I<br />
learned that her son, who visited this<br />
summer, lives in New England and is<br />
responsible for a home devoted to<br />
helping give homeless veterans the<br />
help they need in all facets of life. The<br />
non-profit organization behind it is<br />
called Veterans, Inc. and covers several<br />
New England states. It is devoted<br />
to providing free room and board to<br />
homeless veterans for a year. While<br />
there, they eat well, sleep well, and<br />
are helped to find a job and turn their<br />
lives around. It has to be very rewarding<br />
to help the homeless find their way.<br />
From the History of how it all began:<br />
“In 1990, a small ‘band of brothers,’<br />
Vietnam veterans, alarmed at seeing<br />
their fellow veterans living in alleys<br />
and under bridges, incorporated Veterans,<br />
Inc. (then the Central Massachusetts<br />
Shelter for Homeless Veterans).<br />
In October 1991, the group received<br />
the keys to the historic Massachusetts<br />
National Guard Armory from the Commonwealth<br />
of Massachusetts with a contract<br />
to lease the building for a dollar<br />
per year. Abandoned for about 12 years,<br />
the building had been condemned and<br />
was slated for demolition. In four months,<br />
the veterans collected $17,000 in cash<br />
donations, and with the help of volunteers,<br />
including labor unions, completed<br />
$250,000 worth of renovations. As the<br />
first years passed, Veterans, Inc. repaired<br />
the building a little at a time. Most of<br />
the work was performed by the residents<br />
and volunteers. An estimated $6<br />
million in volunteer and donated services<br />
has been invested over the past<br />
24 years to rescue the historic building<br />
and expand services for veterans.<br />
In 1993, Lt. Colonel Vincent J. Perrone<br />
was named president of the organization,<br />
a position he still holds today.”<br />
Colonel Perrone recruited two lifelong<br />
friends and they took the fledgling<br />
organization from $100,000 in debt<br />
to operating in the black in less than a<br />
year. They expanded the agency’s focus<br />
to include veterans of all eras.<br />
“There are over 2,100 communitybased<br />
homeless veteran service providers<br />
across the country and many<br />
other homeless assistance programs that<br />
have demonstrated impressive success<br />
reaching homeless veterans. These groups<br />
are most successful when they work in<br />
collaboration with federal, state, and<br />
local government agencies; other homeless<br />
providers; and veteran service organizations.<br />
Veterans who participate in<br />
these programs have a higher chance<br />
of becoming tax-paying, productive<br />
citizens again.”<br />

Pyle’s New Historical Novel—Cuban Roots<br />
Attorney Michael A. Pyle,<br />
of Pyle, Dellinger & Duz,<br />
PLLC has published his<br />
second historical novel,<br />
Cuban Roots, after about 25 years of<br />
work. If you’d like to learn something<br />
about Cuban history and the<br />
current living situation, in a work<br />
of fiction rather than a history book,<br />
you should like it. The novel addresses<br />
family, social, cultural, racial,<br />
medical, and legal issues. You probably<br />
know that former dictator Fulgencio<br />
Batista lived in Daytona<br />
Beach in the 40s, which results in<br />
the Cuban characters coming to<br />
visit him.<br />
The book is available on Amazon<br />
as a paper book and an e-book<br />
for Kindle, and Pyle will sell paper<br />
copies at signing events. A talk and<br />
signing event will be held at DeLand<br />
Regional Library, 130 East Howry<br />
Ave., Deland, Florida on <strong>September</strong><br />
25 at 1 P.M. An additional talk<br />

It doesn’t seem balanced to say that<br />
we’re thankful that God saved our<br />
area from Hurricane Dorian or bypassed<br />
us during any calamity for<br />
that matter. Someone, somewhere, this time<br />
the Bahamas, suffers mightily from the ravaging<br />
monster ‘canes.’ So, it is with mixed<br />
emotions that we say: Thank You that our<br />
neighbors are safe and our property intact.<br />
Some riders of the wind consider every<br />
storm a ho-hum event unless it’s the Big<br />
One. You know, the One that someday will<br />
wipe out everything along the coast and send<br />
water all the way to I-95. There were moments<br />
when even the most stoic stormers thought<br />
Dorian might be it, but he turned out to be<br />
Dorian the Borian for this area.<br />
Store shelves were typically empty because<br />
you all know how we are: we can’t<br />
survive a hurricane without bread, water,<br />
flashlights, batteries, appropriate spirits, cat<br />
sand, plastic bags, chips, cookies, and reservations<br />
at a motel in a galaxy far away just<br />
in case.<br />
Everyone has their own unique plan of<br />
action and reaction. Some people pack a bag<br />
at the beginning of hurricane season; just in<br />
case they have to make a run for it. After all<br />
we only get a warning a ten days out, sometimes<br />
more. As soon as a cloud moves off<br />
the coast of Africa, some ambitious reporter<br />
is standing at the beach approach screaming<br />
about potential surge. This is particularly amusing<br />
when beach strollers can be seen in the<br />
background or an occasional volleyball bops<br />
the reporter in his head.<br />
Fatalists give up any rush to escape. ‘If<br />
it’s your time it’s your time,’ they blissfully<br />
relate as they pour more bottled water. Do<br />
they really mean that? As a philosophy, probably.<br />
In reality I wonder? Those who choose<br />
to wave bye-bye on a barrier island that’s<br />
under mandatory evacuation might be pushing<br />
their luck.<br />
So far, GAG and I and cat, of course have<br />
stayed through every hurricane; twenty-one<br />
years in our first floor condo facing the Big<br />
Thing Out There. We’re never without a Plan.<br />
Plan A: We drop the shutters and hope for<br />
the best. Plan B: move to the stairwell if<br />
condo windows break. Plan C: climb the<br />
stairs if the water rises; five floors up should<br />
do it. Plan D: there is no plan D. We, and<br />
millions of other Floridians, knew when we<br />
moved to a skinny piece of coquina and sand<br />
surrounded by an ocean, a Gulf, and drained<br />
by a north flowing river, that we had signed<br />
on to terror with the deed.<br />
To survive a hurricane, stay calm, double-check<br />
supplies, and triple-check the To-<br />
Do List. Have pockets full of money and<br />
next of kin contacts sealed in a waterproof<br />
container. Relax, you’ve got this.<br />
Dorian-Roarian was super-hyped with<br />
more spaghetti strings than an Italian restaurant.<br />
When he finally ambled along the coast,<br />
we were boarded and bored. We slept through<br />
her huff and puff. No shattered windows like<br />
Irma. The power stayed on, the clocks kept<br />
time. Miracle of miracles. Thanks FPL and<br />
hundreds of others in support.<br />
Within a few hours the sun came out, the<br />
seas calmed, the metal detectors hummed, the<br />
Borian Dorian<br />
Happy<br />
Talk<br />
…by George & Peggy Goldtrap<br />
dogs walked. We thought the atmospheric<br />
regurgitation had passed but we were wrong.<br />
The Plagues began and we had no Moses.<br />
Wads of love-bugs swarmed on screens<br />
and blackened and blocked our doorways<br />
for their afternoon delight. We offered them<br />
a cigarette and a glass of wine, but they died<br />
before the cork popped.<br />
The last Plague was personal. Our food<br />
chain was disrupted. Not only were store<br />
shelves sparse, but restaurants were menu<br />
challenged. A soon-to-open mid-Florida<br />
chain was hosting a fundraiser for Bahamas<br />
Relief. Great idea, we could fulfill a mission<br />
and fill our bellies. No! The food sold out by<br />
2 P.M. The fundraiser was a huge success,<br />
though we had to find our dinner elsewhere.<br />
Storms bring out the best in people. For a<br />
short while, everyone says ‘Good Luck. Stay<br />
Safe. Let us hear from you as soon as possible.<br />
We have some extra board, we’ll share.’<br />
Humor reigns supreme as people paint notes<br />
or cartoons on plywood laughing off impending<br />
doom. Cars loaded with people,<br />
pets, and paraphernalia pass by but not without<br />
a honk or a wave. GAG and I found a<br />
downtown Daytona house boarded with<br />
standard window shutters and a surfboard.<br />
Guess the owner wanted to be ready in case<br />
the river rose. People in crisis definitely adopt<br />
the attitude that ‘we’re all in this together.’<br />
Somewhere in the Atlantic, at this very<br />
moment, some cloud-watcher is calculating<br />
the possibility that the latest system might<br />
have a chance….blah, blah. We know the drill<br />
and we still love Florida.<br />
We’re certain that there will be another<br />
invasion, dislocation, relocation, tension,<br />
stress. There will be another time when we<br />
lock the door of our home, for what may be<br />
the last time. It’s never a good feeling.<br />
Three cheers for all of us. We’ve earned<br />
another survivor t-shirt. We, all of us, live to<br />
fight another day. With our war stories,<br />
stashes of supplies, videos and photos to<br />
prove our heroics, life returns to normal in<br />
little Florida communites, where nothin’<br />
much is goin’ on and that’s just the way we<br />
like it. One more thought ‘til next time, not<br />
that it really matters, but: Why is it a hurricane<br />
and not a him-icane? Discuss!
What’s In The Stars<br />
For The Week Of <strong>September</strong> 23<br />
Aries (March 21 to April 19) Changing<br />
your mind doesn’t come easily for<br />
Lambs, who place a high value on commitment.<br />
New facts might persuade you<br />
to rethink your situation.<br />
Taurus (April <strong>20</strong> to May <strong>20</strong>) This is<br />
a good time to put that fine Bovine’s<br />
eye for beauty to work in redecorating<br />
your home or workplace. Don’t forget to<br />
indulge yourself in some personal time.<br />
Gemini (May 21 to June <strong>20</strong>) Your<br />
sense of loyalty to someone who asks for<br />
your help is commendable. Make sure<br />
there are no information gaps that should<br />
be filled in before you move too far.<br />
Cancer (June 21 to July 22) Don’t let<br />
difficult people raise the Crab’s ire<br />
levels. Avoid them if you can. If not,<br />
resist telling them off, even if you think<br />
they deserve it.<br />
LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Your suspicions<br />
about a colleague might be on<br />
the mark. You also could be misreading<br />
the signals. Do some checking before<br />
jumping to conclusions.<br />
VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Take<br />
some time out from your many tasks<br />
and see if someone might be trying to<br />
reach out to you. You could be surprised<br />
to learn who it is.<br />
Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might<br />
want to do more investigating before<br />
taking on a new commitment. Later<br />
would not be the time to try to fill in any<br />
gaps in what you need to know about it.<br />
Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A new<br />
opportunity should be carefully studied.<br />
It may offer some of the things you’ve<br />
been looking for or contain possibilities<br />
you never considered. Check it out.<br />
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You<br />
might have to work harder to get people<br />
to listen to what you have to say.<br />
If you stay with it, you could start to<br />
get your message out to many.<br />
Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Although<br />
family matters again take up a<br />
big chunk of the Goat’s time, also offers<br />
a chance to explore a new career move<br />
you’d been contemplating for a while.<br />
Aquarius (Jan. <strong>20</strong> to Feb. 18) Applying<br />
your practicality (what does it offer<br />
me?) and your creativity (how can I improve<br />
on it?) could provide sound reasons<br />
for seriously considering that offer.<br />
Pisces (Feb. 19 to March <strong>20</strong>) The<br />
single set will find that keeping their<br />
romantic aspirations on high gives Cupid<br />
a better target. Paired Pisces will find<br />
that helps reinforce their relationships.<br />

Special to Seniors Today<br />
Each year, thousands of educators,<br />
caregivers, health and aging professionals,<br />
and older adults across<br />
the country focus their efforts on<br />
one goal: preventing falls. That’s why the<br />
National Council on Aging (NCOA) and<br />
the Falls Free ® Initiative celebrate Falls<br />
Prevention Awareness Day on <strong>September</strong> 23.<br />
Falls are a leading cause of injury for<br />
people aged 65 and older, but they are not<br />
an inevitable part of aging. Most falls can<br />
be prevented—and you have the power to<br />
reduce your risk. Exercising, managing your<br />
medications, having your vision checked,<br />
and making your living environment safer<br />
are all steps you can take to prevent a fall.<br />
To promote greater awareness and understanding<br />
here are 10 common myths—and<br />
the reality—about older adult falls:<br />
Myth 1: Falling happens to other people,<br />
not to me.<br />
Reality: Many people think, “It won’t<br />
happen to me.” The truth is that 1 in 4<br />
older adults fall every year in the U.S.<br />
Myth 2: Falling is something normal<br />
that happens as you get older.<br />
Reality: Falling is not a normal part of<br />
aging. Strength and balance exercises,<br />
managing your medications, having your<br />
vision checked, and making your living<br />
environment safer are all steps you can<br />
take to prevent a fall.<br />
Myth 3: If I limit my activity, I won’t fall.<br />
Reality: Some people believe that the<br />
best way to prevent falls is to stay at home<br />
and limit activity. Not true. Performing physical<br />
activities will actually help you stay independent,<br />
as your strength and range of<br />
motion benefit from remaining active. Social<br />
activities are also good for your overall health.<br />
Myth 4: As long as I stay at home, I<br />
can avoid falling.<br />
Reality: Over half of all falls take place<br />
at home. Inspect your home for fall risks.<br />
Fix simple but serious hazards such as clutter,<br />
throw rugs, and poor lighting. Make simple<br />
home modifications, such as adding grab<br />
bars in the bathroom, a second handrail on<br />
stairs, and non-slip paint on outdoor steps.<br />
Myth 5: Muscle strength and flexibility<br />
can’t be regained.<br />
Reality: While we do lose muscle as we<br />
age, exercise can partially restore strength<br />
and flexibility. It’s never too late to start<br />
an exercise program. Even if you’ve been a<br />
couch potato your whole life, becoming active<br />
now will benefit you in many ways—including<br />
protection from falls.<br />
Myth 6: Taking medication doesn't<br />
increase my risk of falling.<br />
Reality: Taking any medication may<br />
increase your risk of falling. Medications<br />
affect people in many different ways and<br />
can sometimes make you dizzy or sleepy.<br />
Be careful when starting a new medication.<br />
Talk to your health care provider about<br />
potential side effects or interactions.<br />
Myth 7: I don’t need to get my vision<br />
checked every year.<br />
<strong>September</strong> 23, <strong>20</strong>19<br />
Reality: Vision is another key risk factor<br />
for falls. Aging is associated with some<br />
forms of vision loss that increase risk of<br />
falling and injury. People with vision<br />
problems are more than twice as likely to<br />
fall as those without visual impairment.<br />
Have your eyes checked at least once a<br />
year and update your eyeglasses. For those<br />
with low vision there are programs and<br />
assistive devices that can help. Ask your<br />
optometrist for a referral.<br />
Myth 8: Using a walker or cane will<br />
make me more dependent.<br />
Reality: Walking aids are very important<br />
in helping many older adults maintain<br />
or improve their mobility. However, make<br />
sure you use these devices safely. Have a<br />
physical therapist fit the walker or cane to<br />
you and instruct you in its safe use.<br />
Myth 9: I don’t need to talk to family<br />
members or my health care provider if I’m<br />
concerned about my risk of falling. I don’t<br />
want to alarm them, and I want to keep my<br />
independence.<br />
Reality: Fall prevention is a team<br />
effort. Bring it up with your doctor, family,<br />
and anyone else who is in a position to<br />
help. They want to help you maintain your<br />
mobility and reduce your risk of falling.<br />
Myth 10: I don’t need to talk to my parent,<br />
spouse, or other older adult if I’m concerned<br />
about their risk of falling. It will hurt<br />
their feelings, and it’s none of my business.<br />
Reality: Let them know about your concerns<br />
and offer support to help them maintain<br />
the highest degree of independence<br />
possible. There are many things you can do,<br />
including removing hazards in the home,<br />
finding a fall prevention program in the community,<br />
or setting up a vision exam.<br />

Have you ever heard your dog<br />
suddenly yelp? One second they<br />
are perfectly fine and then they<br />
let out a loud yelp. Of course,<br />
the first thing the owner asks is, ‘what happened<br />
or what did you do?’ Too bad dogs<br />
can’t talk to tell us what is hurting them.<br />
We need to become an exploratory investigator<br />
to determine the cause of the pain.<br />
Dogs love chasing each other, playing<br />
fetch, or racing around at full speed, twisting<br />
and turning as they run. Play is a good way<br />
for dogs to get rid of excess energy, but it’s<br />
also how they can pick up an injury. Some of<br />
the most common injuries can sideline your<br />
pet, or at least slow them down a bit.<br />
Soft Tissue Injuries: Soft tissues are the<br />
tendons, muscles, and ligaments. Common<br />
soft tissue injuries are sprains and strains.<br />
Quick turns or stops, leaping, or jumping off<br />
or over something can pull a muscle, stretch<br />
a tendon, or tear a ligament. Just jumping off<br />
the couch or bed can cause an injury. We may<br />
think of dogs as being athletic and surefooted,<br />
but accidents happen in the blink of<br />
an eye. Whenever your dog is racing around<br />
the yard chasing a ball or another dog, or<br />
training for a dog sport, there’s always the<br />
potential for a soft tissue injury.<br />
If you notice your pet limping, that’s a<br />
sure sign something is wrong. It could be<br />
nothing more than a rock caught between<br />
his toes or paw pads, but it could also be a<br />
soft tissue injury. If you’ve checked his feet<br />
and don’t find any cuts or anything else that<br />
could be causing him to limp, it’s best to<br />
have your vet check him out. Many strains<br />
and sprains are minor and can be cared for<br />
by limiting activity, but some can be serious<br />
and require medical attention.<br />
A cut is called a laceration, and scrapes<br />
are abrasions. Lacerations are caused by<br />
sharp objects like broken glass, jagged metal<br />
edges, a dog’s toenails, or anything that can<br />
cut through the skin or flesh. Lacerations can<br />
have a clean and neat edge or be jagged and<br />
dirty, depending on what caused the injury.<br />
Abrasions are caused by sliding on or being<br />
pulled on a rough surface like cement, rocks,<br />
or even sand. Bite wounds are obviously<br />
caused by other dogs, cats, or wild animals.<br />
Eye Injuries: Dogs can’t put up their<br />
paws to protect the eyes like we can, and it’s<br />
not uncommon for them to get sand or dirt<br />
in their eye. Canines that ride in the bed of<br />
a truck or stick their head out the car window<br />
risk getting bugs or small rocks blown<br />
into their eyes. Dogs can get a scratch on<br />
the cornea from fighting or playing with<br />
another dog or cat, or accidentally scratch<br />
their eye pawing at it, or running through<br />
high grass, weeds, or brush. If you notice a<br />
change in your dog’s eyes such as redness,<br />
one pupil larger than the other one, excessive<br />
tearing, squinting, rapid blinking, inflammation,<br />
or swelling, call your vet.<br />
Mouth Injuries: Dog owners unknowingly<br />
contribute to mouth injuries by encouraging<br />
a dog to play with or chew on sticks.<br />
Sticks can splinter and be swallowed, become<br />
embedded in the mouth, or the stick can be<br />
rammed into the back of the mouth when<br />
the dog is running. Uncooked bones can get<br />
lodged in the throat, caught on a tooth, or<br />
splinter. Most injuries happen during fights<br />
or when licking sharp objects like can lids<br />
which cut their tongue. Dogs that chase bees<br />
or other stinging insects are at risk of being<br />
stung, and snake bites can occur on the mouth<br />
or other areas of the body. Many snakes in<br />
Florida are poisonous and can be fatal to a<br />
dog, so watch your dog when they are out and<br />
about. As always, adopt, don’t shop.<br />

Scammers Of All Kinds<br />
As fall looms, it’s a good time<br />
to remind everyone to watch<br />
out for criminals who prey<br />
on homeowners during hurricane<br />
season—they may try to defraud<br />
you of your money for tree or roof work<br />
you didn’t solicit.<br />
Some scammers also call residents, pretending<br />
to be someone they’re not, and<br />
manipulate or intimidate victims into buying<br />
gift or money cards the scammers can<br />
use to steal your money.<br />
Law enforcement agencies throughout<br />
Florida are even becoming victims of something<br />
called spoofing—imposter scams made<br />
possible using equipment that allows one<br />
phone number to appear to be another number.<br />
It’s a technological step up from the<br />
scam involving callers that appear to be<br />
from the IRS. These scams work by intimidating<br />
residents into thinking law enforcement<br />
is calling to say you owe them money<br />
or you risk arrest. Don’t fall for these calls.<br />
It’s not how we operate. The best advice is<br />
not to answer a call you don’t recognize.<br />
We are so fortunate that Hurricane<br />
Dorian blew by us with little impact. Don’t<br />
let your guard down—there are thieves who<br />
will target innocent people by taking their<br />
money and never returning to do work.<br />
One example of that is Russell Bannister,<br />
a shyster who called himself the “Hurricane<br />
Handyman.” He targeted people in Daytona<br />
Beach, Edgewater, and Ormond Beach,<br />
offering to pressure wash, paint, or fix an<br />
appliance, taking money and doing nothing.<br />
From The<br />
Sheriff<br />
…Volusia County<br />
Sheriff Chitwood<br />
We arrested him recently on a slew of<br />
charges for stealing from and exploiting<br />
residents. He’s in jail where he belongs.<br />
Unfortunately, others are taking his place.<br />
You can take steps to protect yourself and<br />
avoid becoming a victim of these con artists.<br />
If you’re approached by people offering to<br />
perform services you didn’t solicit, don’t fall<br />
for it. Just call 911 if it’s an emergency. Call<br />
the Sheriff’s Office non-emergency number<br />
and let us know at 386.248.1777.<br />
Scam artists pose as utility workers,<br />
handymen or women, tree trimmers, pressure<br />
washer, even charity workers. They may<br />
sound very believable. Unfortunately, many<br />
have been active in Volusia County.<br />
Before hiring someone to do yardwork<br />
or preparation for the next storm, you can<br />
verify your contractor's license online at:<br />
myfloridalicense.com or for general<br />
handyman work that doesn't require a license,<br />
check Sunbiz.org and/or the Better Business<br />
Bureau at bbb.org<br />
We want everyone to stay safe and alert<br />
as we enjoy our beautiful community and<br />
count our blessings, especially this hurricane<br />
season. If you need us, call 911 in an<br />
emergency or our non-emergency number<br />
and we’re happy to help.<br />

(on the peninsula)<br />
The following weeks would be a<br />
blur filled with long work days<br />
and lonely nights. Each night<br />
Marci would sit in her room<br />
alone looking out the window and longing<br />
to see her son again. She could feel the bitterness<br />
starting to build and the more she<br />
thought about the day she was forced away<br />
from the Dalton farm the harder she felt<br />
her heart becoming.<br />
She poured her efforts into her work,<br />
determined to use her job as an outlet for all<br />
of her frustrations. Her boss loved her work<br />
ethic and was the benefactor of all of her<br />
pinned up frustration.<br />
In six months Marci became the assistant<br />
head bookkeeper with six women working<br />
under her. Her 12 to 15 hour working<br />
days were reaping benefits, at least for her<br />
employer. However, the toll on her was cutting<br />
a deep riff in her soul. She no longer<br />
had time to go out with her friends and over<br />
the following year saw many of them get<br />
engaged and get married.<br />
Still a young women, Marci had no time<br />
for such trivial things as dating and especially<br />
men. Most nights after she would<br />
return to the boarding house she would go<br />
straight, to her room and lay across the bed<br />
and fall asleep, only to wake up still dressed<br />
from the day before during the night.<br />
Chipley and the Dalton’s would grow<br />
further and further from her mind as she<br />
continued to push those thoughts away.<br />
What she couldn’t push away were the<br />
thoughts of Isaiah, Jr. and not being able<br />
to watch him grow up.<br />
A year passed. Then one Saturday afternoon,<br />
after a morning of working, she<br />
decided she would go back to Chipley.<br />
She went to the boarding house, packed<br />
a bag, and headed to the train station.<br />
At the station she marched up to the<br />
ticket counter. “I need a ticket to Chipley,<br />
Florida,” she told the agent when he walked<br />
up to the counter.<br />
“I’m sorry ma’am, but the bridge of the<br />
Okaloosa River is shut down until Monday,”<br />
He told her.<br />
For the first time in months Marci cried.<br />
She sat down on a bench next to the tracks<br />
and starred down the rails.<br />
It took several hours for her to gain her<br />
composure back. Fate had stepped in keeping<br />
her from making that trip and fate was<br />
not finished with her.<br />
That evening as she sat in her room allowing<br />
the grief she had felt at the train depot<br />
to overwhelm her. The sounds from outside<br />
slowly filled the room. They were the sounds<br />
of the city that she had grown accustomed to<br />
and for some unusual reason had a calming<br />
effect on her as she sat listening. The city<br />
was now her new normal like the sounds of<br />
the farm had been before. Those sounds she<br />
began to realize were now a part of her life.<br />
Instead of her usual trip to the factory<br />
on a Sunday morning to work she decided<br />
to take a much needed day off.<br />
There was a small church a few blocks<br />
from the boarding house. Marci decided<br />
maybe it was time to visit the little church.<br />
The Dalton’s had taken her to church<br />
many times, but she never felt that she had<br />
Winding<br />
Roads<br />

a home in their church. Once she left Chipley<br />
she did not give church much thought.<br />
She walked the few blocks to the church.<br />
She stood near the front entrance for a few<br />
minutes debating on whether to go inside.<br />
As she stood trying to make her mind up a<br />
young lady about her age walked up to her.<br />
“We would love to have you visit with<br />
us this morning,” the woman said.<br />
Marci turned in her direction when she<br />
spoke and smiled and nodded her head.<br />
“Good, you can sit with me and my<br />
friends,” the woman said.<br />
Reluctantly Marci entered the church<br />
following the woman to one of the pews<br />
where three other women were sitting.<br />
Like the Dalton’s church the service<br />
opened with a prayer, a few hymns, and<br />
finally the preacher stood up to speak.<br />
There was something different about this<br />
church. There were a few folks dressed in<br />
their Sunday best much like the Dalton’s<br />
church. There was a difference she noticed<br />
because many of the men were dressed in<br />
work clothes, they were clean and pressed,<br />
but not fancy by any means. The majority of<br />
the women were dressed in simple dresses<br />
with very little flare to them and the children<br />
who sat quietly with their parents were clean,<br />
but wore everyday clothes.<br />
The preacher’s first words startled her<br />
out of her observations. He too was different<br />
she noticed, no long black robe<br />
with a collar, instead he had on a business<br />
suit much like the men in her office wore.<br />
It was nothing fancy just a black suit,<br />
white shirt, and a black tie. He was a tall<br />
lanky man with grey hair receding back from<br />
his forehead. He towered above the pulpit<br />
and leaned forward each time he spoke. She<br />
did not pay much attention to what he was<br />
saying. It sounded a lot like other preachers<br />
she had heard before.<br />
He read a few scriptures and then stepped<br />
away from the pulpit.<br />
“I had a sermon prepared for today, but<br />
for some reason I have these thoughts on<br />
my heart,” he said.<br />
His comment caught Marci’s attention. “I<br />
wonder what he is going to say,” she thought.<br />
“I know there are folks in this congregation<br />
today that are facing serious trials<br />
and tribulations,” he started.<br />
“How could he know what is going on<br />
in my life,” Marci said to herself.<br />
“You see you are not alone, God is here<br />
with you today and always,” he continued.<br />
As Marci sat and listened to him she<br />
assumed he was talking to her.<br />
“In many ways we are all broken by<br />
what life has thrown at us,” he said.<br />
Marci was sure he was looking straight<br />
at her when he made that comment.<br />
That sermon would be the beginning a<br />
change in Marci’s life, especially what he<br />
said at the end.<br />

Justice For Ponce Rally<br />
Special to Seniors Today<br />
On October 1, <strong>20</strong>18, Ponce's<br />
Law became a statewide<br />
law in Florida, allowing<br />
for harsher punishment for<br />
animal abusers and the ability for the<br />
courts to ban an abuser from owning<br />
or having contact with animals. Debbie<br />
Darino spearheaded Ponce's Law and<br />
with the help of Ponce Inlet’s Chief<br />
Frank Fabrizio and bill sponsors Representative<br />
Tom Leek and Senator Greg<br />
Steube, it became law.<br />
Ironically, on October 1. <strong>20</strong>19, one<br />
year later, and again on National Black<br />
Dog Day, the Justice for Ponce group<br />
will be holding a rally in front of the<br />
Criminal Justice Center located at 251<br />
N. Ridgewood Avenue, Daytona Beach.<br />
The rally is set to begin at 8:30 A.M.<br />
until 11 A.M. The purpose of the rally<br />
is to continue to push for punishment<br />
for the horrific killing of Ponce, a nine<br />
month old lab pup, who was brutally<br />
murdered in April, <strong>20</strong>17. The case is<br />
still an active criminal case in the<br />
judicial system.<br />
The case started out with an appeal<br />
of the judge's ruling on the defense's<br />
motion to suppress evidence. The appellate<br />
court ruled that exigent circumstances<br />
did apply and the police were<br />
justified when they went in to the home.<br />
Directly after the ruling the defense<br />
attorney filed a notice with the Supreme<br />
Court which was shot down and denied.<br />
The case is now back in the lower courts<br />
to continue. October 1 is the first pretrial<br />
conference that is set in the case since<br />
returning to the lower court.<br />
The Justice for Ponce group was<br />
also formed in support of punishment<br />
for the heinous murder of Ponce. There<br />
are currently 10,000 members and the<br />
online petition has over 109,906 signatures<br />
from Florida, all over the country,<br />
and international. The group regularly<br />
rallies for every court event as a show<br />
of support for punishment to Ponce's<br />
killer. You are invited to join the rally<br />
and show your support.<br />

It Is All Happening At<br />
Holy Cross Lutheran Church<br />
724 Big Tree Road • South Daytona
One in four divorces are granted<br />
to those who are fifty years of<br />
age or older, hence the name<br />
“gray divorce.” For those who<br />
pursue a gray divorce, the subject of dividing<br />
income and assets can be difficult. In<br />
legal circles these issues are referred to as<br />
alimony and equitable distribution. Both<br />
alimony and equitable distribution are<br />
governed by Florida statutes and previous<br />
judicial decisions.<br />
Traditionally, alimony is based on one<br />
spouses need and the other’s ability to pay.<br />
Equitable distribution is a division of marital<br />
assets and debts that have accrued during<br />
the parties marriage. Alimony and<br />
equitable distribution become more complicated<br />
when a court has to consider a<br />
spouse’s pension, social security, and voluntary<br />
unemployment.<br />
Although people are living and working<br />
later in life, there is still an expectation that<br />
one or both spouses will eventually retire<br />
or cut back on their career and the income<br />
that the couple traditionally received to<br />
support their life style will also diminish<br />
or vanish.<br />
Baby boomers are signing up for social<br />
security faster than any other age group.<br />
Despite rules governing how much money<br />
a person will receive from social security,<br />
couples often divorce without inquiring if<br />
they can benefit from their spouse’s social<br />
security, their veterans benefits, and what<br />
events that may preclude them from benefiting<br />
from their own or their spouse’s<br />
government benefits.<br />
The Gray Divorce<br />
Protect What<br />
Matters<br />
…by Linda Carley<br />
Bonuses, stock options, and pensions will<br />
also be considered marital assets if they are<br />
commingled into a joint account or are<br />
accrued during the time of the marriage.<br />
The same is true for individual retirement<br />
accounts (IRAs) and 401k accounts. The<br />
division of a qualified retirement account<br />
such as a pension requires a separate order<br />
from the court referred to as a qualified<br />
domestic relations order (QDRO) which<br />
will need to be approved by both the company’s<br />
benefits provider and the court.<br />
Monies from an inheritance may also<br />
play a significant part in equitable distribution<br />
and alimony decisions. If monies<br />
from an inheritance are commingled into<br />
a joint account, they are likely to be considered<br />
marital assets which will be divided<br />
equally at the time of a divorce.<br />
If you are in your fifties and sixties and<br />
are contemplating divorce, seek advice from<br />
an attorney who understands divorce and<br />
how financial benefits such as social security,<br />
pension, and retirement will impact your<br />
divorce and your future financial security.<br />
Linda Carley is an attorney, former<br />
circuit judge and mediator who practices<br />
estate planning, probate, and family law.<br />
She is also the author of ‘Divorce Made<br />
Simple, The Ultimate Guide’ which may be<br />
purchased in paperback or as an ebook<br />

Antiques<br />
Lawn Sprinkler<br />
Decorators and gardening columnists<br />
are reporting that the latest<br />
look for a garden includes<br />
furnishings to make it look like<br />
an indoor room. Chairs, tables, rugs, cushions,<br />
statues, urns, fountains, hanging decorations,<br />
fancy birdhouses, and even gnomes<br />
and fake animals are half-hidden in the<br />
flowers. One vintage garden piece that has<br />
not been copied is the figural sprinkler, the<br />
piece that attaches to the hose and stands<br />
on the grass to water the yard.<br />
Companies made the first figural sprinklers<br />
in about 1910, and by the 19<strong>20</strong>s and<br />
’30s there were many manufacturers with<br />
similar ideas. Iron sprinklers shaped like<br />
animals, birds, people, and frogs were made.<br />
Firestone made flat cut-out metal figures<br />
holding hoses that turned as the lawn was<br />
watered. These were copied in wood and<br />
painted in school shop classes. By the<br />
1940s, Bakelite and other colorful plastics<br />
were used, and shapes were modern boxes<br />
or balls. One was a huge orange sunflower.<br />
Today, there is a tall pole that turns to<br />
send a spray that looks like a flower.<br />
Figural iron sprinklers are now considered<br />
folk art and sell for thousands of dollars.<br />
The others still are inexpensive garden art.<br />

Q: Are cereal boxes still a popular collectible?<br />

in the 1960s and seeing<br />
a display of flattened<br />
boxes for sale<br />
at an an-tiques show.<br />
A: Advertising<br />
collectors have been<br />
buying round oatmeal<br />
boxes since the<br />
1940s. About 1910<br />
to 1930, Kellogg put<br />
games and stories<br />
to be cut out on the<br />
back of boxes. The<br />
rectangular boxes did not attract much<br />
attention until Wheaties began picturing<br />
athletes on boxes in 1935. It was the<br />
Breakfast of Champions, and there was a<br />
premium that could be cut from the box.<br />
By the 1940s, small pin-back buttons picturing<br />
comic characters were included with<br />
the cereal. Soon, other toys were included<br />
and were pictured and mentioned on the box.<br />
It was the 1960s that pushed cereal-box<br />
collecting, and soon there were books about<br />
it and boxes were sold at most antique flea<br />
markets. Many were destroyed when the<br />
Mickey Mouse mask or other toy was cut<br />
out. The most expensive today are the full<br />
flattened boxes of the 1950s and 1960s.<br />
Some sell for over $100.<br />
