Lori Gifford approached the milk refrigerator at the back of a King Soopers Marketplace in Parker and scanned the empty shelves that once held a variety of products, looking for organic milk to no avail.

The King Soopers at 117761 Cottonwood Drive was bustling with shoppers stocking up on food March 13. Entire aisles of products were decimated as workers carried cardboard boxes up and down walkways to replenish what they could.

“The panic is here, and that’s what we have to deal with now,” Gifford said. “They exited Douglas County Schools now, so we have to plan for family being home and eating.”

Grocery stores and supermarkets throughout the Denver metro area were quickly running out of certain products, including toilet paper, hand sanitizer and cleansing wipes.

The South Restaurant heading for 50th birthday Mexican, American eatery has been fixture in Englewood since 1970

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Back when Jerry Sturm was a professional football player — which included a stint at guard with the Denver Broncos from 1961 to 1966 — players needed a source of income during the offseason. Sturm had owned a bar on West Colfax Avenue called the End Zone, where he gained an appreciation for customer service.

Sturm wanted to be in the food business and took over a small auto garage that is now home to The South Restaurant at 3535 S. Huron St. in Englewood. With help from other players and friends who showed up with hammers, nails and beer, the garage was transformed into the Mexican and American restaurant that Sturm opened on May 1, 1970.

“They built Cinderella City faster than Jerry could (The South Restaurant),” said Deborah Sturm, Sturm’s wife and co-owner of The South Restaurant. She said it took Sturm, who is currently in memory care, three years to remodel the property.

Deborah Sturm, co-owner of The South Restaurant, poses for a photo inside the restaurant. The South Restaurant has been in Englewood at 3535 S. Huron St. since 1970 and is celebrating its 50th anniversary on May 4. The restaurant specializes in Mexican and American food.

JOSEPH RIOS Fast-forward 50 years later from its opening day, and The South

Restaurant is still serving up its house specialty quesorito — a large burrito that is smothered in cheese and red chili and has ground seasoned beef, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes — as well as other dishes and drinks.

Much of the restaurant’s décor pays homage to the Broncos, the team that named Sturm to its alltime Top 100 Team last year. “(The South Restaurant) is definitely a legacy, and we try not to change our décor very much because we want it to have the same feel and same vibe,” said Deborah.

She said the restaurant refreshes with new paint and carpet and tries to stay current, but it wants its customers to feel like they are still in the same place they were 10 or 20 years ago.

“I think our motto has always been ‘Today is the most important day.’ It is not about what happened last week or last year, but it is about the quality of not only our product, but our service of today and what we are doing today,” said Deborah. “(Sturm) always kept high standards, and we have high expectations from all of our employees. We have a lot of pride.”

Deborah credits The South Restaurant’s longevity to its food that is made fresh daily, customers, and employees who have worked at the restaurant for decades like Laurinda Lovelace.

She has worked as a server at The South Restaurant for nearly 32

years and said Deborah and Sturm have always treated their employees well. Lovelace said when Sturm was around the restaurant, people would come to see him, and he would hand out autographed pictures from his playing days.

“I’ve seen families grow up over the years there, and their kids having kids. We get a lot of regulars that have been coming in forever — a lot of them have been, practically since (The South Restaurant) has been open,” said Lovelace. “It is kind of like a family type of thing there.”

The South Restaurant plans to celebrate its 50th anniversary on May 4 when it will roll out its original 1970 menu with 1970 prices. That menu will include its quesorito and other combination plates. Its margaritas and draft beers will also have 1970 prices.

Deborah said in the coming months, the restaurant will take down its mural of former Broncos quarterbacks John Elway and Peyton Manning in favor of a mural of Sturm, created by Robin Munro.

“When you consider the average lifespan of a restaurant is five years, this is quite a milestone!

That’s why this 50-year anniversary is so special,” said Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce Executive Director David Carroll.

“You don’t do that by just being an outstanding dining establishment, but like The South, you are also a perfect gathering place.”

‘This will get worse before it gets better’ Governor gives update on ‘community spread’ of COVID-19 as case numbers climb

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A day after Gov. Jared Polis declared a state of emergency in response to the spread of COVID-19 — the disease caused by a widespread coronavirus — the number of confirmed cases nearly doubled, and Polis announced guidelines for K-12 school closures and travel to Colorado’s mountain towns.

“At this point, we can confirm community spread in the high country of Colorado, and while we’re still investigating and have not confirmed community spread in the Denver metro area, we are treatPolis ing it as if it is already occurring,” Polis said at a March 11 news conference.

Community spread can mean cases and outbreaks in areas where people became infected and the source is unknown. When it’s more widespread, it means cases and outbreaks in many communities where the virus is spread between people.

Also on March 11, the World Health Organization — the United Nations health agency — classified COVID-19 as a pandemic, which means an outbreak of illness with sustained transmission, or spread, on more than one continent.

By the end of last week, Colorado had dozens of presumptive positive cases of COVID-19, and hundreds had been tested.

In the metro area, there were multiple presumptive positive cases in Adams, Arapahoe, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties.

Generally, cases are being referred

WHAT IS CORONAVIRUS? Coronavirus is a family of viruses named for the microscopic view of crownlike spikes on their surfaces, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

These viruses can cause the common cold or more severe diseases such as SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) and MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome), which have seen outbreaks in the past, according to the CDC. COVID-19 — standing for “coronavirus disease 2019” — first appeared in late 2019 in Wuhan, China.

Symptoms of COVID-19 can include fever, cough and breathing trouble. Most people develop only mild symptoms, according to Denver Public Health. But according to the CDC, some — usually those with severe underlying health conditions or older adults — develop more serious symptoms, including pneumonia, which can be fatal.

Technically, COVID-19 is caused by a virus named SARS-CoV-2. to as presumptive positive because initial testing is done at the state level, and results will be confirmed by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC. “We are likely on the verge of a tipping point where we will see more community spread,” Polis said at the news conference, where he also noted, “This will get worse before it gets better.”

But he also emphasized the role everyday citizens have in mitigating the spread and putting others first in the face of disruptions to daily life.

“This is really a test of our Colorado character,” Polis said.

Polis announced guidance for all K-12 school districts in the state, outlining closures if they have a student or staff member who is infected.

One COVID-19 case at a school would trigger a closure for at least 72 hours to disinfect the building. For schools with three cases within a 30day period, closure is required for a minimum of 14 days. If three schools in a district have cases within a 30-day SEE POLIS, P5

Tri-County health director has respiratory illness John Douglas takes precautions but opts against COVID-19 test

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When local officials from the TriCounty Health Department’s jurisdiction — which serves more than 1.5 million people — gathered in Douglas County and livestreamed a “virtual town hall” about the COVID-19 pandemic, there was one notable absence.

John Douglas, Tri-County’s executive director, joined by Skype from his home while other public health officials sat in front of cameras in the Douglas County commissioners’ hearing room.

The head of Colorado’s largest health department was sick with a respiratory illness on March 11.

He chose to practice what he’s been preaching during the COVID-19 outbreak by staying home while ill and avoiding spreading germs to others.

No, he doesn’t know if he is sick with COVID-19.

Douglas has not been tested for the novel coronavirus sweeping the globe because testing, he said, is still limited.

“If testing was easy and widely available, I would probably get tested to help me understand how long I

A screenshot from the virtual town hall held by Tri-County Health Department and its counties shows Executive Director John Douglas participating by Skype from his home.

COURTESY PHOTO should self-isolate and because I am very curious,” Douglas said by email.

“However, while we are doing our best to help support broader access, testing is still limited, and I don’t want to compete for testing resources for those with a great need to know.”

who has traveled to high-risk areas, has a known exposure to someone with COVID-19, or has a greater chance of exposing a vulnerable population, such as health care workers.

As of March 13, Douglas was still at home, isolating himself and “acting as though I am potentially contagious with something.” He’ll do so until he feels better, and is taking precautions around his healthy family members, he said.

Testing capabilities were in the spotlight on March 13 as Gov. Jared Polis held a news conference where he spoke at length about the state’s progress in testing people for COVID-19 and the need for more testing in Colorado and across the nation.

“We need to dramatically increase our testing capacity. Frankly, we needed to dramatically increase our testing capacity months ago,” Polis said.

Polis said he expressed his frustrations to Vice President Mike Pence, and added that he believes a lack of early action in Washington to set up mass testing capabilities “has hampered our ability to avoid mass disruption to our lives and economy.”

Polis characterized testing as a crucial step in providing epidemiologists more information on the virus and a clearer picture of the virus’s spread in the state. It also helps inform people who are infected, and makes sure they know what to do.

The state’s capacity for testing has increased recently. Private labs are now able to offer COVID-19 tests and the state now has two drive-through testing labs. But demand is high.

Colorado’s first drive-up testing lab in Lowry closed early on March 12 because of high volume. The center served more than 650 people in two days. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment announced March 12 it would determine the best cut-off in a lengthy line of

cars with occupants waiting three or more hours to be seen. Those waiting in line but not served on March 12 would have priority the following day.

At the time of Polis’ March 13 news conference, the lab had not reopened because of inclement weather. Still, the governor had activated the National Guard, from which medics are conducting training to administer tests around the state. Training was underway March 13. The state announced later on March 13 it would reopen the drive-through center at a new location — the Denver Coliseum — on March 14.

Pitkin County opened a mobile lab that was operational March 13, Polis said.

The governor urged Colorado residents to stay aware of the latest COVID-19 updates. The virus will continue to spread, he said, and most people will know someone who becomes infected. He also stressed the need to avoid panic and stay calm.

The majority of cases will remain mild and most people will experience minor symptoms. Stopping COVID-19’s spread is important to protect vulnerable populations and to prevent the healthcare system from growing overwhelmed, he said.

Anyone who has symptoms of COVID-19 is encouraged to call his or her doctor first for guidance on how to manage their illness. A doctor’s note is required for the drive-through testing centers and people should not seek testing without first consulting their health care provider.

Those who have been tested should stay home until they receive results.

Anyone whose test is positive needs to stay home at least two weeks, Polis said.

“We want to continue to push the federal government as well as the private-sector partners to scale up testing,” Polis said. “Aggressive and sustained testing is a powerful tool for fighting the virus.”

Governor declares state of emergency

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Gov. Jared Polis declared a state of emergency in response to the spread of COVID-19, the disease caused by a widespread coronavirus, as the number of cases in Colorado continued to grow on March 10.

“Our administration’s response will be guided by the science and lessons learned from the countries and states that this virus arrived in first,” Polis said in a statement. “We will continue to be proactive and working around the clock to protect public health and safety with an eye towards preventing the need for more drastic measures that result in social disruption.”

The World Health Organization — the United Nations health agency — on March 11 classified COVID-19 as a pandemic, which means an outbreak of illness with sustained transmission, or spread, on more than one continent.

The emergency declaration gives Polis broad temporary powers, and he is acting to protect those who are most vulnerable to the virus, said Conor Cahill, the governor’s press secretary.

Polis directed the Colorado

Department of Labor and Employment to make emergency rules to ensure workers in foodhandling, hospitality, child care, health care and education receive paid sick leave if they exhibit flu-like symptoms and have to miss work awaiting testing results for COVID-19, according to a governor’s office news release.

For workers who test positive and lack access to paid leave, Polis directed the Labor Department to identify other support, such as access to unemployment insurance.

That’s an especially important step for those who work with older people and those with underlying health issues, who are all considered vulnerable populations amid the spread of COVID-19, according to the state.

“When those workers lack access to paid sick leave, it poses a great risk to our ability to protect the public,” the governor’s office said in a release.

Polis also directed the Colorado Department of Revenue to temporarily allow those over the age of 65 to extend their driver’s licenses online to avoid having to gather at DMVs. The declaration also allows Colorado to request more federal funding to respond to COVID-19.

ACTIONS YOU CAN TAKE If you have symptoms of COVID-19, first call a health care provider, clinic or hospital. The provider will give instructions on whether you need to be tested and on where to go to for care and testing.

If instructed to seek care, follow the precautionary advice of the medical provider before going into any health facility, the state advises.

Certain people are at higher risk of getting very sick from COVID-19, including older adults, especially those over 80; and those with chronic medical conditions such as heart, lung or kidney disease. Older adults who have chronic medical conditions are at the highest risk.

Illness can be severe and require hospitalization, but most individuals recover by resting, drinking plenty of liquids, and taking pain- and feverreducing medications, according to the state.

Other advice from public health officials: • Stay home if you are sick.

• Wash your hands thoroughly and frequently for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.

• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces such as desks, phones, doorknobs and rails.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.

period, all schools in the district are required to close for a minimum of 14 days.

The University of Colorado-Boulder announced it would transition to online classes for the rest of the semester, starting March 16, due to COVID-19 concerns. Metropolitan State University of Denver is moving classes online

by March 30, as is Colorado State University on March 25.

The state is also limiting visitation to senior facilities, announcing incoming rules regarding nursing homes and senior-care facilities.

Some groups are at higher risk of getting very sick or dying from COVID-19, including those over age 60 — especially people over 80 years old — as well as people with chronic medical conditions.

“Young, healthy people should take the proper precautions so they don’t perhaps fatally (impact) vulnerable populations,” Polis said.

The governor also advised that that older people and those with underlying health conditions should avoid travel to the high country and refrain from attending large gatherings.

Polis also highlighted sporting events as among the public gatherings that should take measures to prevent spread of the virus. To that end, the Colorado High School Activities Association announced it would limit the number of people attending state basketball tournament games last week, before ultimately canceling the remainder of the tournament after several girls games had been played on March 12. CHSAA also suspended all spring sports and activities through April 6.

Guidance will also be issued on protecting staff and people in custody at Colorado’s 24/7 facilities, such as correctional facilities, Polis said.

Funding Longevity is Hard.

There is a Solution!

by Kathy Muni

A

ccording to a recent survey of seniors, 80% were concerned about their ability to age-in-place due to the cost. Sixty percent have less than $10,000 in savings (including investments and retirement plans), and debt among seniors has never been higher. Nearly half of homeowners ages 65–79 carry a mortgage.

In addition, seniors are living longer than previous generations and funding longevity can be hard. However, there is a smart way to afford retirement, and live without a monthly mortgage payment* with a reverse mortgage from Silver Leaf Mortgage.

To qualify for a government-insured reverse mortgage at least one borrower must be 62 or older, the home must be your primary residence, and you should have 30–60% equity. A reverse mortgage can be used to eliminate your monthly mortgage payment, which can be a real burden if you’re on a fixed income. A reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan, meaning even if your home loses value due to a market downturn, you or your heirs can never be “under water.”

Just to clarify, you are the only one who owns your home and its equity. The bank does not. The reverse mortgage is not repaid until the last borrower leaves the home.

We all want to live a long, healthy, independent life. With a reverse mortgage in place, aging-in-place is possible! Call me today to see if a reverse mortgage can help you fund your retirement.

canned goods quickly emptied over the course of one day, March 13.

Bryant Nguyen, of Centennial, said the COVID-19 outbreak has affected his day-to-day life. Instead of going to his gym, he works out from home. He stocked up on frozen foods to eat later.

“It’s definitely affecting all aspects of life,” Nguyen said. “It’s been pretty comprehensive. Just trying to stay safe, wash hands. Purell and Lysol wipes are hard to come by, but we’re trying to get our hands on that.”

One King Soopers customer service representative said the store ran out of toilet paper the morning of March 13 and did not anticipate restocking until the next truck arrived the following night.

A Target representative said the store had been out of toilet paper since about an hour after opening and recommended people get to the store early if they want to buy the item.

Walmart announced March 10 on its corporate website that it will work to stay stocked and keep prices fair. The store will be diverting certain products to areas most in need of replenished inventory.

The largest private employer in the United States, Walmart is also taking measures to protect its employees.

Workers are asked to stay home if sick and the store will provide pay options and support if a worker is diagnosed with COVID-19.

Major supermarket outlets, like Walmart, King Soopers and Target, have all authorized managers to decide on a consumer limit on certain products. Items like bottled water and toilet paper are available on an item-percustomer limit.

Bonnie Lee, a mother of seven from Elbert County, said she expects her older kids to come home if the spread of the virus continues because they may not be as prepared as their mother.

“I’m just going to get groceries while I can and I’m going to go home and wait it out,” Lee said. “And put my trust in Jesus.”

Kevin Donovan, of Englewood, said he wishes people would be more considerate of their neighbors when shopping during this stressful time.

“We live in an individualistic society, where everybody is out for themselves,” said Donovan, who was shopping for produce March 13 at the King Soopers at 3495 S. University Blvd. “I would like to see more of a community approach.

Josh Shepard, assistant manager of the same Englewood King Soopers where Donovan was shopping, said the day was “absolutely nuts,” listing numerous items the store was out of or that were almost gone, including meat, water, frozen foods and, of course, toilet paper. He also brought light to what many store workers are going through during the recent shopping frenzy.

“I live out in Aurora, so I have not been able to see my family a lot, because I am here,” said Shepard, adding that he gets one day a week off. “But making money is what I have to do.”

Suspension of spring sports prompts mixed reactions The Colorado High School Activities Association has made the tough decision to confront the COVID-19 pandemic and has suspended all spring activities and sports games and practices through April 6.

This decision was effective March 13. The situation will be monitored and evaluated with key decisionmakers from around the state to determine when, or if, to resume the spring season, CHSAA said in a news release.

The decision has sparked mixed reactions.

Cherry Creek baseball coach Marc Johnson and his team were scheduled to play in a tournament this month in Arizona, but it was called off when the school district canceled all out-of-state travel.

He has no idea how to make up for three weeks of lost time in getting a

team ready to play on April 6.

“That’s a great question,” said Johnson. “I don’t know. We will have to figure out something. The kids, they obviously want to play, but they understand. We’ll see what they say April 6.

“I give CHSAA credit that they at least said you are shut off until April 6 and we will re-evaluate. A lot of these colleges, they just shut down.

“My personal feeling is the country is overreacting, but we’ll see.

I understand they don’t want it to become something unbelievable, but it comes across like everybody should quarantine themselves. I know economically this is going to do some serious damage.”

Losing three weeks will make it tough to reschedule games.

“I’m all over the board,” said Douglas County Athletic Director Jeff Gardella when asked for a reaction.

“For the kids to be starting their

ARTISANS

seasons, training and then go three weeks without training because they can’t practice and then to resume any of the sports — what does that do for injuries and what does that do to our schedules? We will never be able to make up all these games that were scheduled. What does that do to playoffs, RPI (rankings) all of that stuff ? It’s just crazy.”

Gardella has questions about why spring sports — with all but boys swimming played outdoors — is considered exposed.

“The part I struggle with is, we go to school every day with 2,000, 3,000 kids, but we can’t go out and have a baseball game in the open air with 100 fans. How is that putting our kids more at risk than going to school with 2,000, 3,000 kids every day? I get the indoor stuff where there are packed venues — but when you are outside with the natural air and not big crowds? It is what it is, and we just have to deal with it.”

OF

The night of March 12, most school districts across the metro area, including the Douglas County School District, announced they would be having extended spring breaks, keeping students out of school for at least an additional week.

Larry Bull, athletic director for the Cherry Creek School District, applauds the CHSAA decision to wait until April 6 but says many people do not agree.

“I’m glad that it has been postponed to evaluate and see what happens,” said Bull. “I think there is a lot of unknown and I think there is a lot of information that is going to be coming. I’m glad we didn’t come out and say were cancelling everything.

“With that being said, everybody has to realize that yes, we may resume or we may be done for the rest of the year. I know some people are supporting the suspension 100 percent and there are people that are really upset about it.”

Colorado Legislature to shut down for at least two weeks State lawmakers decide to pause while awaiting coronavirus developments

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As Colorado’s number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 rose to 131 — and amid the state’s first death due to the disease — the state Legislature will shut down until at least March 30.

Lawmakers will pass a resolution by the end of March 14 to adjourn for roughly two weeks, state House Democrats spokesman Jarrett Freedman confirmed on March 13.

The Capitol will still be open, but staff suspended tourists earlier in the week of March 9, Freedman said.

School districts, high school sports, libraries, recreation centers and some large gatherings in the Denver metro area have all temporarily shut down, been canceled or were postponed amid the spread of COVID-19, the disease caused by a widespread coronavirus.

Generally, cases are being referred to as “presumptive positive” because initial testing is done at the state level, and results will be confirmed

Laws will not be getting passed at the Capitol until at least March 30. by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC. The state was likely on “the verge

of a tipping point” where it will see more widespread person-to-person transmission of the illness, Gov.

Jared Polis said at a March 11 news conference.

The Legislature has yet to finish work on some of its highest-profile bills, including the annual state budget and the “Colorado option” — Democrats’ proposal for a health insurance plan that is offered by private insurers but designed by the state. The Legislature was about halfway through its regular session, the four-month period of the year in which it passes laws.

“It’s a bit unclear whether or not the session can be extended past (early) May,” Freedman said, noting that there are legal questions surrounding that possibility. Lawmakers plan to ask the Colorado Supreme Court to clarify.

All bills still on the table will remain in place until the Legislature reconvenes, Freedman said. The recess may be extended if coronavirus concerns are serious enough, he said.

The decision to shut down was made by both Republicans and Democrats after the Legislature’s consultation with public health officials.

“House and Senate leaders have been talking throughout the day collaboratively to arrive at this pathway forward,” said Freedman, who described the decision as bipartisan.

Children’s Hospital responds to COVID-19 Hospital implements visitation restrictions, new travel/illness screenings STAFF REPORT

As the number of COVID-19 cases grows in the state, Children’s Hospital Colorado has implemented visitation restrictions and travel/illness screenings, according to a news release.

Families of patients at Children’s may identify up to four caregivers, ages 18 or older, who will be allowed to visit. Only two visitors are allowed at a time.

Parents who must bring in their child for an emergency visit are asked to avoid bringing in additional family members. Limiting the number of visitors to the hospital is one way to limit the spread of illness and keep everyone safe, the release said.

Patients and families also might see doctors and nurses wearing masks and protective equipment. Some of the masks fit over the head and look almost like an astronaut helmet.

Staff members wearing the protective equipment can provide the same level of care, according to the news release.

Parents of children with symptoms that could be coronavirus are asked not to go unannounced to a doctor’s of-

fice, emergency department, hospital or medical facility. Instead, they are asked to call the child’s doctor or the hospital’s ParentSmart Healthline at 720-777-0123 to get guidance about the right course of action.

In addition, patients are being asked not to come to emergency or urgent care locations unless they are experiencing a medical emergency or are directed to go there by a doctor. This is to help limit the spread of illness in the community, and to allow emergency departments to care for patients with the most critical needs first.

For information about COVID-19 and potential exposure information, call CO-Help at 303-389-1687 or 1-877462-2911 for answers in both English and Spanish.

Children’s Hospital Colorado offers a number of resources for families.

VOICES When difficult times create easy decisions

eople make new decisions based on new information.

And sometimes, what we think are difficult decisions to make as we face a trying or challenging time, become much easier to make when we receive the right information and new data.

For the past few weeks, individuals, businesses of all sizes, organizations and schools have all wrestled with difWINNING ficult decisions. Do WORDS I travel? Do I go to work? Do we restrict our people from coming to work? Do we place a ban on company travel? Do we cancel events and conferences? Do we not attend those events or conferences?

Michael Norton Those are all behavior-based decisions. Should we or shouldn’t we do or attend something? Just within the past two weeks many were still trying to minimize the outbreak or impact of the coronavirus.

While some closings and events were

H

March 19, 2020M

canceled and people had no choice or decision to make about going somewhere or doing something like showing up to work or attending class, others still pressed on and went to concerts, conferences, work, and other events and gatherings where many people were together. They still made the decision to shake hands, give hugs, and live and work as they always did.

And these behavior-based decisions were sometimes made because people believed they had to do what they needed to do in order to survive and provide for their families. These were difficult decisions for many people, and they were difficult decisions made in the face of a difficult situation.

Then there was new information.

Those behavior-based decisions were replaced with belief-based and knowledge-based decisions. The spread of the virus became a pandemic. The stock market went into a free fall. This all became very real for those who chose not to believe. Those of us who moved forward with our daily behaviors and work patterns now found ourselves making much easier decisions.

It’s time to stay home, it’s time to keep a safe distance, it’s time to wash our

hands more than we have ever washed them before. It’s time to let make better decisions for ourselves, our neighbors, and our businesses.

Here’s another belief-based decision we can make. It may seem harder for some and easier for others. We need to make the decision to maintain our mind, our body, and our spirit. In this difficult time, we need to make the easy decision to stay positive in every aspect of our lives. Our behaviorbased decisions will now look and sound like this: I can work remotely and still be productive; I can use more virtual technology and not get on airplanes for a little while; I can keep learning and complete my classes online if I need to; and I can probably survive emotionally without giving out handshakes and hugs for a while.

Staying positive in a seemingly negative situation is a decision. And to do that we need to make sure that we are making new decisions based on new information and making certain that the information is coming from a reliable source. And there are other things we can do like choosing to do more reading of books we have been meaning to read; listening to uplifting and posi-

tive podcasts; spending time in prayer, meditation, or silence; eating healthier; maintaining some level of exercise at home even if we can’t go to the gym.

As we sit here today, there are restrictions and conditions we are forced to live with. And many of those restrictions and conditions were difficult decisions made by government agencies. They were made to try and protect us to the best of their ability. Even if it means economic hardships for a while.

And for us it comes down to the decision we will make, and how we choose to handle this and respond to it.

So how about you? Are you making new decisions based on new information? Are you making the decision to take care of your mind, body, and spirit during this difficult time? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@ tramazing.com, and when we realize that difficult situations could create easier decisions that keep more of us all healthy, it really will be a better than good week.

Michael Norton is the grateful CEO of Tramazing.com, a personal and professional coach, and a consultant, trainer, encourager and motivator to businesses of all sizes.

When life gives you moisture, make the moist of it

eadline: “Celebrity swears by moisturizer.”

Tell me: Who swears by a moisturizer?

What exactly is a moisturizer?

Is here a man alive who can say the word “moisturizer” with a straight face? My father never said the word “moisturizer.”

Like father like son.

You’re not going to QUIET hear me say “moisDESPERATION turizer.”

I’m one of the lucky ones. My father didn’t work at a moisturizer factory.

If he had worked at a moisturizer factory, I’d have to say “moisturizer factory” whenever I was asked Craig Marshall where my father worked.

Smith Maybe there are other jobs a father could have that his son would hate to admit to.

fusers.”

“What?”

“You know? Those little pine trees you hang from the rear view mirror.”

A moisturizer is a lotion or cream that prevents dry skin.

So does St. Louis. Ever been there?

Dry skin in St. Louis is an impossibility.

Could you live there? I couldn’t. It would be double trouble for a curmudgeon. Walk out at dawn to pick the morning paper off the driveway and watch rivulets of human dew run down your arms and splash on the daily. No thanks.

Is moisturizer sold in Missouri?

I don’t swear by anything because I don’t swear. I leave that to others.

There’s plenty of it already.

Oh, I might swear when I’m alone, but never in public.

Swearing is so commonplace in films that your kids can hear the brunt of it in just about anything that’s made these days.

Remember one of Rhett’s last words to Scarlett? That was a big deal in 1939.

Not now.

Swearing is easy. One word in particular gets used as a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, and floor polish.

It is used so often it has no meaning.

Just like maraschino cherries.

If you have ever wondered where maraschino cherries come from, I’m here to tell you.

They come from the Marasca region in coastal Croatia.

If you have ever wondered where Croatia is, I’m here to tell you.

It borders Slovenia.

I only know where Croatia is; I don’t know where Slovenia is.

In another month or two, you’ll hear someone say, “We need the moisture.”

Then, after it rains, you’ll hear someone say, “We needed the moisture.”

Observations like this should be felonious.

Along with, “Hot enough for you?”

And the broken-record kid at the checkout stand who says, “Have a nice day” to everyone who comes through.

He says it in the same, flat tone of

The celebrity who swears by her moisturizer is well known. She has a brother in the business as well, although his star doesn’t shine as brightly.

My sister outshined me in high school by a mile. She was a goldenhaired cheerleader. Say no more.

Boys opened doors for her. Teachers opened doors for her. The principal opened doors for her.

Senior living communities taking extra precautions Facilities in south metro area look to reduce residents’ risk of contracting COVID-19

BY NICK PUCKETT AND ELLIOTT WENZLER STAFF WRITERS

Senior living facilities throughout the south metro area are taking extra precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, a virus that can bring serious health complications for older adults.

For the most part, visiting hours have been limited and events canceled. Facilities are upping their cleaning and disinfecting efforts and reminding staff to be aware of respiratory and flu-like symptoms.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states it is extra important for people in vulnerable groups to take action to reduce the risk of contracting the disease caused by a coronavirus, COVID-19.

People with heart disease, diabetes and lung disease are also at higher risk of becoming severely sick from this illness.

MorningStar Senior Living, Wind Crest retirement community and Brookdale Senior Living have posted messages to residents and their families on their respective websites about the preventative measures being taken and reminders to take steps to help curb the spread of the virus.

These and other senior living facilities in the area are focusing on prevention and containment. Their actions include sending informational letters out to residents and their families, additional training for staff, stocking up on disinfectant and cleaning supplies, boosted cleaning frequency and posted extra signage throughout the facility.

MorningStar — which has locations throughout the metro area, including in Lone Tree, Parker and Centennial — will limit resident outings and visiting hours and has canceled all large-scale events and outside entertainers.

“We believe these protocols are a wise and necessary part of protecting the populations we serve. We ask you to partner with us for the sake of our seniors,” MorningStar CEO Ken Jaeger states on the facility’s website.

Wind Crest, in Highlands Ranch,

stated it is taking “unprecedented action” in response to the virus.

“Although we have no reported cases, we are acting with an abundance of caution and taking every precautionary measure necessary, consistent with CDC guidelines, in response to this serious public health concern,” Wind Crest spokesperson Courtney Benhoff stated in a March 12 email.

Wind Crest stated it will be screening visitors prior to entry to the facility. It is also temporarily suspending all large on-campus sales events and activities that include outside groups. Non-essential business travel for employees has been canceled.

303-222-8811 is working again, thanks to a Texas phone fanatic

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Does the phone number 303-222-8811 sound familiar? Longtime residents of the Denver area may recognize it as one of the city’s old-time and temperature numbers.

Disconnected since the 1990s, the line recently came back to life thanks to John Lochridge, a Texas telecom engineer on a mission to resurrect the nation’s time and temperature lines.

“It’s something from childhood,” Lochridge said. “For many people, the time and temperature was the first number they learned to call.”

Lochridge has reinstated hundreds of lines around the country over the past several years. He begins with research, he said. He sometimes finds former time and temp lines listed in old phone books and road atlases, but others come from community Facebook groups.

Then, it’s a matter of working with phone companies to obtain the rights to the phone number itself, many of which have been disconnected for years. Finally, Lochridge uses his engineering and computer programming skills to connect the line to an automated recording that reads the time and local temperature. Some lines also read a weather forecast from the National Weather Service.

He said a woman in New Mexico recently dialed one of his newly acquired lines, simply for the sake of punching in the old numbers she dialed so often as a kid. Lochridge hadn’t yet attached the line to a recording, so it rang to his personal phone.

“I told her what I was doing, and she said she didn’t know why, but it just made her so happy,” Lochridge said.

Time and temperature lines date back to the early days of telephony, Lochridge said.

People used to call operators to get the right time to set their clocks, which bothered phone companies

Another of Denver’s old time and temperature lines is back in service, thanks to Texas telecom engineer John Lochridge.

COURTESY PHOTO because the calls were taking up operator time but didn’t generate revenue. For a time, phone companies hired employees specifically to stare at a clock and read the time out loud all day.

Eventually, companies developed automated lines that connected to a mechanical device that announced the time and temperature off of a series of electromagnetic drums. As the 20th century progressed, time and temperature numbers proliferated. Many were operated by phone companies, but others were run by local banks.

“Before the internet, and especially before television, it was the best way to accurately set your clocks,”

Lochridge said.

In Denver, 303-222-8811 belonged to the Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company, which became US West in 1991. The line was unceremoniously decommissioned sometime in the 1990s, and US West became Qwest, now CenturyLink.

The line joins another old Denver time and temp line that Lochridge restored: 303-844-4444. The Denver Post also operates the Weatherline Forecast Service at 303-337-2500.

“I hope it brings joy to people’s lives,” Lochridge said. “We try to offer hope, too. On Sunday I include a Scripture reading in the calls. I want to offer more than memories. A little hope for the future, too.”

Though religion and tastes are changing, old instruments still command awe

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

O

utside Trinity United Methodist Church in downtown Denver, the din of the city roars.

But inside the old church, a stone anachronism in a canyon of steel and glass, there is silence.

Organist Norm Sutphin walks into the cavernous sanctuary, lit only by the glow of sunshine through stained glass. He sits at a bench at the center of the altar, towered over by organ pipes stretching three stories high. He flips a switch, and a breath of air cuts the silence, just slightly.

Sutphin begins to play, and the sanctuary is suddenly alive with the majesty of Bach’s Prelude and Fugue in D Minor, the low notes rattling hymnals in the pews.

“This instrument can rouse emotions in the soul like few other things,” Sutphin said. “I appreciate its beauty, and I respect its power.”

The pipe organ is one of the largest in Denver, and perhaps the oldest. Built in 1888, it consists of 4,275 pipes in 82 sections. The smallest are just inches long. The tallest, low C, is 32 feet.

The Roosevelt organ, which Sutphin calls “one of the monuments of organ building in the West,” is one of many mighty pipe organs scattered around the Denver metro area.

But, Sutphin said, as traditional religious denominations and traditional church music decline, he is part of a diminishing family of organists who still command the power of the

world’s largest musical instruments.

“I work very hard to make sure my performances are tight,” said Sutphin, who practices up to six days a week in preparation for Sunday. “It means a lot to people.”

Organs in history They still mean a lot to Rick Morel, a third-generation pipe organ builder and repairman. Morel is one of three remaining members of Morel and Associates, one of few remaining pipe organ repair shops in the Mountain West.

In an aging warehouse in north Denver, Morel cleans, tunes and repairs pipe organs, using decades-old tools, many of which are handmade.

Pipe organs are marvels of engineering, Morel said.

“The people who designed these were as smart as any computer engineer designing microchips today,” he said. “They can make so many sounds.

No other single instrument has so much range.”

Developed in the 17th century, pipe organs were originally hand-pumped, and larger ones required multiple people working bellows to keep them playing, Morel said. The Industrial Revolution introduced organs powered by electric air blowers.

Pipe organs were once a staple of American life, Morel said.

“In the silent film era, any theater worth its salt had a pipe organ.

Beyond a soundtrack of mood music, they could make so many sound effects: boat horns, sirens, even waves and pounding surf.”

The early 20th century saw an explosion of similar instruments, including automatic organs that even included banjos, violins and other instruments played mechanically.

Denver had some legendary organs.

The old City Auditorium, which today is part of the Denver Center for Performing Arts, was home to a colossal, four-story organ. The City of Denver employed a “city organist” who gave recitals as often as seven days a week some summers.

ORGANS FROM PAGE 17

The Phipps Mansion in Denver’s Belcaro neighborhood featured an automatic organ in the basement that could be controlled by switches throughout the house, and could play a variety of contemporary and classic tunes.

The advent of talking movies, the Great Depression and metal rationing during World War II spelled a downturn for pipe organs, but pent-up demand and a surge of suburban church building in the postwar years meant an explosion in the organ market. It would prove to be the last.

“Tastes in church music are changing, and they have been for a while,” Morel said. “We haven’t built an organ since the 1990s. A lot of the old churches are on hard times, and organs can be expensive to maintain.”

Morel said he’s got two or three restoration jobs left, and then it’s probably time to close up the multigenerational business.

“We can’t find anyone who wants to take it over,” Morel said. “This is a labor of love. You don’t do it to get rich. And if you’re not willing to run out in a blizzard to do an emergency repair on Christmas Eve, then you’re not living up to the standards we hold ourselves to.”

around a pipe organ performance, and a contemporary service built around modern music. Zehnder also leads several choirs and handbell choruses.

“I’m a pastor’s son, and when contemporary music came along in the 1970s, it seemed so wrong to me,” Zehnder said. “But time and again in the Scripture, we see passages about making joyous music to celebrate God.

We read about drums, cymbals, harps and trumpets. Martin Luther said, ‘Next to the word of God, I give music the highest praise.’”

Zehnder sees the organ as a bridge to the church’s past, and a way to preserve hymns that date to medieval times.

Diversion Records, Map Of Historically Irrigated Lands, Method of Analysis. Applicant may rely on the summaries of records of actual diversions of the Lupton Bottom Ditch water rights attached as Exhibit B to this application.

Applicant will use a farm by farm analysis to determine the historical consumptive use of the Changed Portion of the Subject Water Rights.

12. Proposed Change: Aurora Water only proposes to change the Changed Portion of the Subject Water Rights used to irrigate the nine farms. Aurora Water does not seek to change the Subject Water Rights historically diverted and used by the LBDC and LMDC shareholders pursuant to the water delivery functions, operations and historical water allocation practices of the two mutual ditch companies. Aurora Water will divert the Subject Water Rights through the same river headgates through which the respective water rights have historically been diverted. 12.1. Change to Alternate Types of Use for Changed Portion of the Subject Water Rights. In addition to use for agricultural irrigation on the historically irrigated lands, Aurora Water seeks to add the following uses: Municipal, domestic, agricultural, energy production, manufacturing, mechanical and industrial purposes including, but not limited to: fire protection, irrigation, commercial, recreation, fish and wildlife propagation, reservoir evaporation replacement, creation and maintenance of wetlands, maintenance of storage reserves, stock watering, reclamation, revegetation, dust suppression, water treatment and supply, wastewater treatment, storage for such uses, and use as a supply or substitute supply for augmentation, replacement, exchanges decreed or to be decreed, and substitute supply plans. All uses include reuse and successive reuse to extinction for the above purposes, or disposition of effluent for the above purposes. 12.2. Change to alternate places of use: In addition to use on the historically irrigated lands, which may continue for a time after the entry of this change Decree, Aurora Water seeks to add the following place of use for the Changed Portion of the Subject Water Rights: Aurora Water’s current and future service areas served by its municipal water supply and water reuse systems, including areas served by its connections with other systems, and by any current or future water supply contracts or obligations of Aurora Water. Aurora Water may also use the water to meet its replacement or delivery obligations in Water Division 1. Aurora Water's service area has changed from time to time and will continue to do so. 12.3. Change from Direct Flow to Direct Flow or Storage: After diversion and prior to initial use by Aurora Water, water diverted pursuant to the Changed Portion of the Subject Water Rights may be stored at any of the locations set forth below in 12.3.1. Such water may be delivered to storage by means of the use of natural stream channels, component facilities of Aurora Water’s South Platte diversion and conveyance system in which Aurora is the owner or in privity with the owner, component facilities of Aurora Water’s Prairie Waters System, and/or any points of diversion authorized in the respective decrees for those storage structures including, but not limited to, the points of diversion listed in 12.3.1.1 through 12.3.1.15 below. Reusable effluent or return flows resulting from the initial use for the changed uses of the historical consumptive use component of the water diverted pursuant to the Changed Portion of the Subject Water Rights may be stored in any reservoir Aurora Water is authorized to use. 12.3.1.

The following proposed Aurora Water storage locations are in existing or planned reservoirs that are both decreed and undecreed. Aurora Water shall not use any reservoir for storage until it has a legal right to use the land or structure associated with the reservoir. 12.3.1.1. Gilcrest Reservoir.

Some Information About Hot Tubs & COVID-19 from Master Spas We are living in a time of uncertainty. The news is alarming, and it feels like the world is changing by the minute. But we need to find some calm during the storm. Your Master Spas hot tub or swim spa can be that safe haven.

According to the CDC, there is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine) of hot tubs and swim spas should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.

A hot tub can be a way for you to disconnect from the 24-hour news cycle, relieve stress, reduce your anxiety, and connect with the people you love most.

Always: Follow the water guidelines in your owner’s manual. The concentration of active ingredients in spa chemicals varies by manufacturer, so always consult chemical manufacturer’s instructions.

Safe Haven The reach of the COVID-19 pandemic is far and wide. Schools are closed, employees are working from home, and public places are closed. Our daily Your Master Spas Product and the Coronavirus lives have been interrupted as health leaders — in the Maintaining the water quality of your hot tub or United States and around the world — work to control swim spa is essential to enjoying the health benefits. the virus.

• Spend time with family. School closures and workfrom-home policies can mean the entire family is working in close quarters. Get some fresh air and take a mental break from reports and get some fresh air. Stream a fun playlist through the Fusion Air speakers or play some hot tub games.

• Tame the tension. You might feel the stress creeping up … right to your shoulders. Take some time for much needed self care and treat yourself to a spa massage — in your Master Spas hot tub or swim spa.

• Sleep easier. It might be hard to turn off your mind and relax enough to get a good night’s rest. Using a hot tub for 20 minutes at the end of the day has been shown to help you fall asleep more quickly and improve sleep quality.

At Master Spas, we treat our customers like family.
