How Can You Leave The Legacy You Desire?

You may not see it in the greeting card section of your local drugstore, but August is “What Will Be Your Legacy Month.” So it’s a good time to think about the type of legacy you’d like to leave.

Of course, “legacy” can mean many things. In the broadest sense, your legacy is how you will be remembered by your loved ones, friends and the communities to which you belong. On a practical level, establishing your legacy means providing your family and the charitable organizations you support with the resources you’d like them to have.

And that means you may need to take the following actions: create your plans, communicate your wishes and review and update your documents.

Let’s take a quick look at all these steps: • Create your plans. You will want to work with your legal professional, and possibly your tax and financial professionals, too, to draft the plans needed to fulfill your legacy wishes. These plans may include drafting a will, living trust, health care directive, power of attorney and other documents.

The groundbreaking ceremony for Town Branch Commons is July 2 at 10 am at Charles Young Park. Town Branch Commons will be a strip of Bluegrass running through downtown Lexington, roughly following the path of Town Branch, Lexington’s first water source. It will link the city’s two major trails, Town Branch Trail and the Legacy Trail, giving 22 miles of uninterrupted trail.

Ideally, you want these plans to do more than just convey where you want your money to go – you want to impart, to the next generation, a sense of the effort that went into building the wealth they receive. Without such an appreciation, your heirs may be less than rigorous in retaining the tangible legacies you’ve left them.

• Communicate your wishes. It’s important to communicate your legacyrelated wishes to your family members as early as possible. By doing so, you can hopefully avoid unpleasant surprises and hurt feelings when it’s time for your estate to be settled – and you’ll also let people know what tasks, if any, they need to perform. For example, if you’re choosing a family member to be the executor of your estate, or if you’re giving someone power of attorney over your financial or healthrelated matters, they should be prepared.

• Update your documents. During your life, you may well experience any number of changes – new marriage, new children, opening a family business, and so on. You need to make sure your legal documents and financial accounts reflect these changes. For example, if you’ve remarried, you may want to change the beneficiary designations on your IRA, 401(k) and other retirement accounts – if left untouched, these designations may even supersede the instructions left in your will. And the directions in life chosen by your grown children may also dictatechanges in your will or living trust. In any case, it’s a good idea to review all your legacy-

related documents periodically, and update them as needed.

In addition to taking the above steps, you also need to protect the financial resources that go into your legacy. So, when you retire and begin taking funds from your IRA, 401(k) and other retirement accounts, make sure your withdrawal rate is sufficient for your living expenses, but not so high that it eventually jeopardizes the amounts you planned to leave to your family or to your preferred charities. A financial professional can help you determine the withdrawal rate appropriate for your situation.

With careful planning, and by making the right moves, you can create the type of legacy you desire – one that can benefit your loved ones far into the future.

NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS The Hamburg YMCA held a Dedication Ceremony for its new Outdoor Pavilion.

The new 4,000-square-foot outdoor pavilion was built to provide shelter and shade to YMCA summer camp participants. Several summer campers gave a performance of their hit camp song “Going on a Lion Hunt” at the ceremony. Everyone in attendance sang and danced along with the campers.

“YMCA summer camp now has the facilities needed to better serve children and their families for years to come,” said David Martorano president and CEO of the YMCA of Central Kentucky. “We are honored to recognize the Kloiber Foundation for such an

impactful gift and aligning to our focus to give all children access to summer activities keeping their minds and bodies learning and growing during out of school time.”

When asked what his motivations were for pursuing these projects, David Kloiber, the president of the Kloiber Foundation, said growing up, his parents always wanted him and his three younger brothers to be a part of different programs and/or camps, “It didn’t matter what we were doing, it was just always keeping us involved. I felt very strongly that those types of programs helped shape who I was.” Because of this his family chose to focus the efforts of the Foundation on educational and extracurricular activities for kids.

EAT YOUR VEGETABLES!

undisturbed, for about 5 minutes. When they started to caramelize just a bit, I turned the vegetables over, shook the skillet to settle them down into the oil, and let them go for another 5 minutes before adding 1/4 cup of the chili sauce.

After cranking the heat to medium high, I let the chili sauce reduce until the carrots and radishes were draped in a light spicy sweet glaze.

WHAT GROWS TOGETHER, GOES TOGETHER

By Tom Yates

C

ome summer, I long for the smell of my grandmother’s floral cotton dresses. Almost threadbare from wear, they smelled of lavender, love, and hard work. Worn beneath mismatched aprons and adorned with large patchwork pockets, those faded cotton dresses were the summer uniforms she donned to take care of the homestead and tend to the garden. Just steps from the back door and enclosed with barbed wire fencing covered in grape vines to keep the cattle at bay, the garden always needed tending. Apple trees edged the garden like watchtowers, providing shade from the sun and respite from the heat.

aprons (the tools of her trade), my grandmother methodically worked the rows of the garden, filling her pockets with whatever was ripe for the picking.

When she wasn’t gathering, she was cooking. Her fried green tomatoes and marinated cucumbers were the stuff of dreams. When the corn rolled in, her fresh pan-fried corn could make farm hands weep. That said, there were times when she drowned boiled carrots in off-brand margarine, obliterated summer squash before smothering them in black pepper, and hammered green beans until they became one with her bacon grease. Either too young to care or too naive to know better, I loved every single bite. Like a good farm boy, I ate my vegetables. I adored my vegetables. I still do. And while I don’t boil them to death these days, I still enjoy a bit of heat and char.

Pan Roasted Chili Glazed Carrots And Radishes.

Heat.

Not my grandmother’s heavy handed back pepper.

Although every summer day seemed like high season on the farm, midsummer upped the garden ante. Warm sunkissed tomatoes hung heavy from their vines or dropped to the ground begging to be gathered, sliced, salted, and eaten. Greens beans always needed snapping. Carrots and onions had to be pulled. All the while, endless meandering vines of summer squash and cucumbers twisted their way through everything. Gardening. Country work.

Hard work. Armed with her curious

After blooming 1 tablespoon smoked paprika in 2 tablespoons unsalted butter over a medium flame, I added 3/4 cup Cacklin’ Hen hot pepper sauce, 1/4 cup local honey, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. When the honey melted into the sweetened buttery hot sauce, I pulled it from the heat and set it aside.

The roots of the matter: What grows together goes together.

Even banged up with dirt and soil, French breakfast radishes are stunners.

Tossed in salads or swiped through butter with a dab of salt, raw radishes

bring peppery spice to the party. When cooked, they transform into sweet translucent jewels with surprisingly mild turnip-like undertones. I simply snipped the greens off a hearty large bunch of farmers market French radishes, gave them a quick wash, and set them aside.

Bunched up as stubs or bundled up as slender beauties, locally gown tender sweet carrots have no comparison.

Beauty plays second fiddle to taste.

Without much fuss, I sliced the carrot tops from 1 pound pencil thin carrots from the farmers market. Leaving the fragile skins intact, I gently rinsed the unpeeled carrots, and set them aside.

I pulled the skillet from the heat, splashed the vegetables with fresh lemon juice, and hit them with kosher salt before finishing with Mercer County micro greens, pea shoots, and the reserved fresh radishes.

Painted with blistered spice, the earthy sweetness of the tender carrots and cooked radishes tempered the muted fire of the brick colored glaze.

While the greens added pokes of freshness, the perky raw radishes provided bright peppery crunch.

My grandmother knew her way around a cast iron skillet. Most farm folks did and still do. Count me in. These days, they might seem old fashioned in the age of sous vide and high performance cookware, but they’ve endured for a reason. They’re workhorses. For the lucky few, our hand-me-down cast iron skillets are tangible tactile legacies seasoned with time and love.

After sliding a large cast iron skillet over a medium high flame, I add 2 tablespoons bacon grease (from my stash) and 1 tablespoon butter. Just before the butter took on color, I tumbled the carrots and radishes (reserving a few radishes) into the pan and let them rip,

I still have one of my grandmother’s tattered aprons. And I store bacon fat in the fridge.

And like a good urban farm boy, I eat my vegetables.

IT’S A HORSE, OF COURSE PRESTON MADDEN EXPLAINS THE STREETS OF HAMBURG

BY JOSHUA CAUDILL

W

hether you attended every leg of the recent Triple Crown of horse racing, or simply sipped a mint julep on the first Saturday in May and watched a little Derby coverage on TV — you know that all eyes have been on the horse industry and Justify this summer. Ever since he broke the “Curse of Apollo” and remained undefeated, he has captured the hearts of Kentuckians everywhere.

Justify is not only the 13th Triple Crown winner, he is the first undefeated winner since Seattle Slew. It’s an excitement that racing fans didn’t expect to experience so quickly after American Pharoah finally became “the one” in 2015 to break the 37-year Triple Crown drought.

Lexington now occupies a unique place in history with the only two living Triple Crown champs — American Pharoah and Justify — making their homes here. We’ve visited both of them in recent weeks, and they are — in a word — magic.

It remains to be seen whether Justify will follow in American Pharoah’s footsteps and bring home the Grand Slam (Derby, Preakness, Belmont, and Breeders’ Cup). If he does, he

couldn’t have chosen a more perfect year, as the Breeders’ Cup will return to Churchill Downs in November.

Can a Justify Boulevard be far behind with a horse like this to inspire those empowered to ink the names across our green street signs?

W

hen you live in the horse capital of the world, it’s understood that your city occupies a unique position in the equine landscape. It isn’t just thoroughbreds of course. The annual Junior

“Money is only the symbol of success — not to be confused with success itself.”

League Horse Show (the first leg of the American Saddlebred Triple Crown) will relocate to its new home at the Kentucky Horse Park later this month, and is expected to draw as many as 30,000 visitors. The Rolex 3 Day Event and High Hope Steeplechase enjoy worldwide reputations at the Kentucky Horse Park; polo matches are a popular part of Lexington’s culture (and have even been played in the center of downtown); the two very different Keeneland and Red Mile tracks both call Lexington home. And the world came calling on the bluegrass when the 2010 World Equestrian Games were hosted here, with attendance estimated at half a million.

And if you’ve so much as turned right on red in Lexington, odds are, you’ve had an encounter with this history, however peripheral.

It’s a sign — a literal, green sign — of how much we love our horses here.

You don’t have to be a racing enthusiast to notice how many of our streets are named after famous racehorses (unless maybe you thought Man O’ War was all about the jellyfish).

N Preston Madden

o one is more qualified to explain the origins of Hamburg’s street names than Preston Madden, the legendary 80-something retired horseman who once sat on Man O’War as a child.

Characterizing him as “the greatest horse that ever lived,” he still recalls the time that Man O’ War’s groom “Will Harbut picked me up and put me on.”

Madden is heir to one of the most prominent families of horse racing. His grandfather John E. Madden bought the yearling, Hamburg, for $1,200 in 1896. He parlayed Hamburg’s winnings and sale into the purchase of the farm and breeding operation that would become Hamburg Place along Winchester Road.

Today, Sir Barton Way is the primary Hamburg artery between Winchester Road and Man O’War. (When Hamburg Journal opened 15 years ago, Sir Barton was sparsely populated and served as everyone’s favorite fast shortcut to connect to downtown via Winchester Road. Times have changed.)

The first Triple Crown winner, Sir Barton, was bred at Hamburg Place.

So were four more Derby winners, and four Belmont Stakes winners.

Breeding five Kentucky Derby winners, four Belmont Stakes winners and the first Triple Crown winner, John E. Madden’s legacy was set, but not complete. It was his grandson, Preston Madden, who went on to win big at the races and even bigger in real estate.

But, he explains, “Money is only the symbol of success — not to be confused with success itself.”

He says, “Before this end of the farm

was developed, I was extremely busy breeding horses. I had 100 horses on the farm, so my son [Patrick] did the actual [Hamburg] development and my wife, Anita, named the streets. I think she did a hell of a job. My grandfather bred over 100 stakes winners. She had a list of 100-plus stakes winners —Sir Barton, first Triple Crown winner, and Alysheba were the obvious choices so she took from all of his stakes winners and my stakes winners.”

T

he Maddens transformed Hamburg Place into the thriving commercial corridor that it is today, but Preston always knew he still wanted to carry on the family tradition. Even in grade school, he told his classmates that he wanted to breed a Kentucky Derby winner.

Wanting desperately to bring back the garland of roses, a feat that Hamburg Place had not experienced since Flying Ebony won the Derby in 1925, Preston took his chances with Vegas Vic in 1971 and Kentuckian in 1972. Vegas Vic finished sixth, Kentuckian finished 10th. And then came Alysheba.

“Alysheba made my life,” Preston says.

Preston had bred Alysheba and sold him as a yearling to Dorothy and Pam Scharbauer for $500,000. And in 1987, Preston would get his third chance at a Derby winner when Alysheba walked into the starting gate at Churchill Downs.

At the top of the stretch, Alysheba’s legs buckled after colliding with Bet Twice and it looked like Preston’s quest would end up in disappointment yet again. But Alysheba and jockey Chris McCarron recovered and made a last ditch run for the finish, edging out Bet Twice for the win. Preston and Anita, watching the race from a balcony overlooking the track, were riveted.

HAMBURGJOURNAL.COM

July 2018 | 13 One painting is impossible to miss, centered over the receptionist’s desk and illuminated by lamps that serve as spotlights—a painting of Alysheba winning the Kentucky Derby under the Twin Spires.

Bust of John E. Madden in Hamburg “My wife was on my right. It became clear before the finish line that Alysheba was going to win,” Preston said. “This is the third time we’ve run in the Derby and I had been trying to win this race all my life, so when people ask me what were my thoughts when he crossed the finish line, I tell them the true story.

One hundred yards out, my wife took her left arm and put it around my neck and pulled my head down” and planted such a kiss on him that he could barely even see the finish line. The memory makes him smile to this day (even if it briefly obscured his view).

After exiting the Winners’ Circle, the Maddens were in the Director’s Room when a girl who attended grade school with Preston walked in and proclaimed, “I want everyone in here to know that when we were in the third grade, Preston Madden told me he was going to be a Kentucky Derby winner.”

“You think my wife was happy because [this classmate] remembered me? Hell no, she didn’t like it at all,” he says, laughing at the memory.

S

itting in his Hamburg office today on Sir Barton, Madden is happy to tell the story behind every image on the walls — Sir Barton, Old Rosebud, Man O’War, Hamburg, and Pink Pigeon are just a few of the familiar names pictured in paintings and photographs.

Between the gallery of fine art, the burnished wood, and the open bar, it feels classic and reminiscent of an episode of Mad Men, if Don Draper were a horse racing legend.

That moment was everything to him.

Whether it was the kiss from Anita or the emotion of taking the roses for Hamburg Place that made that moment most special, he doesn’t know. And although he hasn’t been to the Derby in nearly 30 years and he just follows the sport from afar, he still has the legacy and memory he built both in Hamburg and in horse racing. It’s been two decades since an epic Anita Madden Derby Party has been hosted in Hamburg, but no one has forgotten. It was Preston who suggested one year’s theme, “The Diamond As Big As The Ritz,” an homage to the fact that one of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Princeton classmates was Madden’s father.

“I’ve been lucky as hell,” he reflects, “and I think it’s important to understand that luck is a big factor particularly in the horse business.”

“There were expectations for me to do things and I was lucky enough to be able to accomplish those, but the year that Alysheba was foaled, there were roughly 36,000 registered foals, but how many Kentucky Derby winners are there? I’ve been lucky and God’s been good to me and I’ve had some fun and I’m going to have some more fun.”
