BUSINESSES

DID YOU KNOW? Car buyers may find some great deals by using offered rebates.

Rebates can take place at any time of the year. Dealers typically use rebates in order to clear out a particular model year. Rebates may also be offered through the manufacturer. Dealerships may sell a vehicle for less when certain incentives are applied.

Shoppers can rely on Edmunds. com to search for rebates and incentives by vehicle make and geographic location.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE Rental potential and the local labor force: Location is a significant factor to consider when investing in real estate, but recent shifts in how and where people work could change the real estate investment landscape. A 2020 Gartner, Inc., survey of more than 300 financial executives and leaders in the finance industry found that roughly 25 percent will move at least one out of every five of their on-site workers to permanently remote positions in the years ahead. Economists note that this shift to remote working could be among the more lasting trends to emerge from the pandemic. Before investing in real estate, prospective investors should examine local trends to see if more and more locals are working remotely, and whether or not that’s affecting the market for rentals.

MARY SCHEFFER MOTHER’S DAY WRITING CONTEST WINNER “Having a mom like ours has been an adventure! From our cross-country vacations in the car as a family to our school functions, church activities and holiday parties, mom was always there for us. She instilled a pride in being part of our family as well as a confidence in developing friendships outside the family. She enjoyed participating in everythingg that she could. But even with all of these excitingg things in our life, one of my favorite memories is of a summer day when my dad would come home from workk and we would all relax and swim in our pool together and afterwards we would enjoy mom’s delicious meatballs and pasta. Even though she is now 89 going on 90 soon she is still managing to serve up her famous pasta dinner to many of us with an extraa helping of love on the side! Happy Mother’s Day, Mom, Grandma dma and Great Grandma. We love you.”

The tradition of Mother’s Day in the United States dates back more than a century to 1908, when West Virginia native Anna Jarvis held a memorial service to honor her mother, who had passed away three years earlier, and all mothers in Grafton, West Virginia. Mother’s Day would ultimately become a national holiday in the United States in 1914, thanks in large part to Jarvis’ campaigning. As Jarvis, who never married and never had children of her own, grew old, she criticized Mother’s Day as overly commercial, even trying to have it removed from the calendar. Those efforts failed, and Mother’s Day remains popular now, more than 100 years after the idea for it was conceived.

Hire a sitter for young kids.

Although Mother’s Day is a chance for the entire family to spend time together, the main goal is to ensure Mom’s comfort and happiness. If very young children are in tow, she may not be able to relax and enjoy her meal. Infants will need to be fed, and toddlers may be easily distracted. Have a sitter watch little ones when adults are dining out, and then Mom can enjoy time with the kids when she returns home for more celebrating.

Gas pump handles

SPONSORED BY

Why is it that most gas pump handles don’t have the little hook that catches the handle so that the pump continues to fill your car without you having to hold the handle? Spring is finally upon us, but during the Winter months I actually seek out the pumps (and I know where they are) that have this handle hook!

Once you have the handle ‘hooked,’ you can return to the warmth and safety of your car until your tank is full. So simple an idea ... and why do you need my zip code and bonus card number and want to know if I want a car wash... a waste of my time.

r e t h g i r B There are good people out there!

I wrote a check to give to my child’s teacher. I don’t know whether it fell out of her pocket on the bike ride to school, in front of the school, in the school, or in the garbage with scrap paper as she thought it had, but thank you to whatever good human put it in my mailbox. It’s not a large sum of money, but anyone could’ve written cash and cashed it. Instead, it was put in my mailbox carefully. Thank you! We all need a little reminder that there are good people and this was mine for today.

Enjoy your breakfast We were out to eat at a smaller, local restaurant for breakfast this past weekend when a large group coming in needed a few of the tables together. While they were in the process of moving things around a older couple came in to eat and was told they didn’t have a table to seat them. That’s when a younger couple sitting at a table in the middle offered up their available 2 seats to the older couple to all enjoy breakfast together. Truly a sweet sentiment.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like basic kindness doesn’t exist around here anymore? I’ve noticed lately that so many parents seem to avoid eye contact, rarely say hello, or even acknowledge each other - and I’m genuinely curious why. No smiles, no ‘excuse me,’ no ‘thank you.’ It feels cold and honestly, it’s sad.

I’m not posting this to point fingers or judge anyone - life is busy and we all have our moments. Our kids are watching. They see how we treat each other. But we can do better for each other and for our children.

Have you felt this too? How can we help bring back a bit more kindness and warmth into our day-to-day interactions?

Bring back the kindness

“My mom, who passed away in 2021, loved carnations. So for Mother’s Day, I would always get her a bouquet of them. Whenever I see carnations I think of her & her love for them.”

–Michele G. Mother — that was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries. ~T. DeWitt Talmage

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. The two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

THIS SPRING, IT’S ALL ABOUT THAT BASS FISHING -AND YOUR BASIC GEAR BRING THE EXTRAS. This could include a life vest, cooler or, if you happen to be a smokeless tobacco user, a portable spittoon like those offered by Flasr. The Atlantabased company prides itself on c reating the first-of-its-kind portable spittoon that is small enough to fit in your pocket and carry along w herever you go -w hether it’s fishing on a lake or hunting in a blind. Its advanced closing mechanism ensures that it stays securely closed, eliminating the risk of spills and leaks.

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Dry Cough Persisting for a Decade Might Indicate Asthma DEAR DR. ROACH: I have a dry cough that’s been going on for about 13-14 years. I’m a healthy 62-year-old and read that it is called “cough variant asthma.” I would like to know more about this but can’t really find anything about it, except that it will eventually get worse if it’s not treated. I was checked twice in the past 15 years for asthma, and I wasn’t diagnosed. However, I’ve not been diagnosed with any acid reflux or postnasal drip. -- D.S. ANSWER:Although most people think that asthma causes wheezing, cough is a very common symptom of asthma. You’ve named the two other most common causes of chronic cough: acid reflux and postnasal drip. It can be tricky to make these diagnoses.

Very often, primary care doctors will do a “therapeutic trial” that involves a short-term prescription to see if there is improvement. For acid reflux, it might be an H2 blocker like famotidine (Pepcid), which acts faster than a proton-pump inhibitor like omeprazole. This is often faster, easier, and much less expensive than a diagnostic test like a 24-hour pH monitor (the gold-standard diagnostic test).

Similarly, a physician might give a trial of asthma medication (such as a bronchodilator like albuterol) to see if it stops the cough, rather than immediately testing a person’s pulmonary function with a trial of bronchodilators -- a standard diagnostic test for asthma. Sometimes a pulmonologist will order a “methacholine challenge test” where an airway irritant is given at very low doses to see if it will trigger an asthma response in the lung. Postnasal drip can sometimes be confirmed by a physical exam, but a fiberoptic laryngoscopy is seldom necessary to make the diagnosis.

When therapeutic trials are not helpful, diagnostic tests become necessary. I personally order lung testing before and after bronchodilators on all patients with suspected asthma, as the tests give important information beyond a diagnosis. Lung testing can be used to follow the course of the disease and identify whether there may be a separate problem in addition to asthma.

COMMON TRIGGERS FOR HEADACHES Allergies: The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology notes that there are occasions when allergies can contribute to headaches. For example, individuals with rhinitis, often referred to as “hay fever,” can experience headaches that may result from sinus disease in and around the nasal passages. Individuals who feel their headaches could be a byproduct of allergies can consult with an allergist for tips on how to treat their allergies and potentially reduce the frequency of their headaches.

Protect yourself against

CO M M O N S C A M S Imagine getting a call from someone claiming a close family member is in trouble and needs money right now. Perhaps the voice sounds like the person themself asking for help.

Or the person identifies as an IRS agent and informs you that you are criminally liable for unpaid tax debts.

Maybe it is someone who found you through an online dating or friendship website and wants to visit you in person but is having financial difficulties.

Or it’s the Social Security Administration with an identity theft alert.

Maybe it’s an email or phone call offering you a can’t-miss investment opportunity.

Perhaps the caller or email congratulates you on winning a grand prize.

Perhaps a text message informs you of a package needing delivery confirmation.

Or you log into a website and a pop-up warns you that your identity has been found on the dark web and is being used for criminal purposes.

Perhaps a warning tells you your system has a virus and urges you to call a toll-free number or click a link for tech support.

Unfortunately, all these scenarios and more are becoming increasingly commonplace in today’s digital world. Scammers are experts at playing with your mind and preying on your emotional vulnerabilities. They create a sense of urgency, whether over the phone, online, or through text and email. They want you to act fast without thinking. They use fear to scare you into believing something bad will happen if you don’t pay. They act like they’re in charge to make you think you have to do what they say. And some promise easy money or try to make you think they are in love with you.

All are lies to manipulate you to send money, reveal personal information, or both. If you are pressured to take immediate action without thinking it over or talking with someone else, including an attorney, it is a scam.

One of the most common scams today involves the purchase of gift cards, although providing personal information such as social security numbers and dates of birth or wiring money are also prevalent. Real companies and government agencies will never ask you to pay with gift cards. Only scammers will tell you to buy a gift card and give them the numbers off the back of the card. No matter what they say, that’s a scam. If you are buying a gift card for any reason other than physically giving it to someone in real life, it is a scam.

Gift cards are like cash for scammers. It is almost impossible to track gift cards after they have been redeemed. Once a scammer has the card’s info, they quickly turn it into money.

It is also nearly impossible to get your money back, which makes gift cards the perfect tool for scammers to get away with stealing. Even if you’re careful, you might still get tricked.

If you think you’ve been scammed, act fast. The sooner you act, the better your chances of getting your money back.

If the scam involves gift cards, call the company that issued the gift card. Tell them what happened. They might be able to freeze the card or refund your money. Look for the company’s

contact number on the back of the card or online. If the scam involves wiring funds or providing personal information, contact your bank, wire service provider, or credit card issuer immediately to report the fraud and stop any further activity.

In every event, report the scam to your local police and file a report with the Federal Trade Commission at https:// reportfraud.ftc.gov. You may also want to contact the three major credit bureaus to place an alert on your file and freeze the opening of any new credit accounts at https://www. annualcreditreport.com/protectYourIdentity.action.

Save everything related to the scam, including e-mails, texts, receipts, and gift card numbers. Write down everything you remember about the scammer. The more evidence you have, the better, as it will help the police and the gift card company with their investigation.

Paw’s CorNer

By Sam Mazotta

Willow our newly adopted Mini Aussie, has quickly become a beloved part of our family.

She fits right in with our adventurous lifestyle - whether it’s hiking, swimming, canoeing on the Finger Lakes, or camping deep in the wilderness, she’s always ready to explore the great outdoors. She loves this beautiful region just as much as we do!

Caring for your pets in the warmer weather DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Spring is here, and summer is just around the corner. Can you please remind people that leaving pets in a hot car is a deadly mistake? -- Carol in Syracuse, New York DEAR CAROL: Absolutely. Folks, even if the weather outside is just warm -- not hot -- the inside of your car can become extremely hot when it’s parked in the sun. Even with the windows cracked a bit, the temperature can still rise by 20, 30 and 40 degrees higher than the outside air temperature. So, if it’s a balmy 65 degrees outside, the interior of your car can reach 105 degrees or higher -- enough to cause heat injury or death for a pet.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT GREYHOUNDS

That’s why 31 U.S. states now have laws banning pets in parked cars. It’s why police and even private citizens, in some areas, can smash a car window to save a pet. And it’s why pet owners who leave their animal in a parked car may face fines and, in some states, prison. Those laws do not make exceptions for cars that are left running to keep the air conditioning on. If the car stalls or has an automatic switch-off, the interior will heat up dramatically even on a cloudy day.

Greyhounds are very fast. Some retired racing greyhounds can hit speeds as high as 45 miles per hour. While they only achieve such speeds for very short periods of time, that’s still pretty fast.

Send us a photo! and a brief write-up of your pet and we’ll feature it!

So, as we roll into the warm spring months, it’s important to have a plan for your pet if you need to take them along for

Long nails can be painful for dogs. The experts in holistic care at Dogs Naturally Magazine say that long nails that will come in contact with hard ground can push back up into the nail bed and cause discomfort. Long nails also may cause the toes to twist. Most dogs require their nails be trimmed every two weeks. This time period may be extended if the dog goes for long walks frequently.

FROM OUR READERS:

“All my memories with my mom were favorites, as far back as I can remember. The shopping trips, lunches, our out-of-town ventures, and just hanging out to have each other’s company and our talks. Even on the last day of her life—even though I could tell that she had passed—I knew she was still with me. It was just her and I together.

So maybe that is (or was) my favorite, but lifelong sad memory.”

Grow, grow, grow your own veggies Nothing beats the flavor of fresh-picked fruits and vegetables, but growing your own food benefits more than just your taste buds! Here are a few more great reasons to start a vegetable garden of your own or a community garden: • Eating just-picked ripened vegetables from your garden lets you enjoy peak nutritional value over food that has been harvested, shipped and distributed to a grocery store.

• Gardening promotes functional fitness through movement. It also treats your body to fresh air and Vitamin D from the sunlight.

• Growing your own food reduces use of fossil fuels traditionally needed to transport produce from farms to grocers.

Getting started is as easy as picking an area that receives at least six hours of daylight exposure, whether it’s a plot of earth or a raised planter box. Find out what grows well in your area by talking to neighbors or vendors at your local farmers’ market, then start small with something you really enjoy eating!

All-Natural Strategies to Safely Protect Fruits and Vegetables • Plant gardens in raised beds. Raised beds can eliminate some garden infiltration by small critters that come up and under from the ground, such as rabbits, gophers, groundhogs, slugs, and some other crawling pests.

• Prepare homemade insecticide. The environmental information site Treehugger provides information on making a homemade insecticide from vegetable oil and a mild soap. Use one cup of oil with one tablespoon of soap (such as Dr Bronner’s castile soap). Add this mixture to one quart of water in a spray bottle. This concoction can eradicate aphids, mites, thrips, and more by coating insects’ bodies and effectively suffocating them. Soap-and-water sprays or even neem oil sprays work similarly.

• Sprinkle diatomaceous earth. Diatomaceous earth, commonly known as DE, is an abrasive powder comprised of fossilized algae diatoms. It’s commonly used as a filter medium in swimming pools, but also makes an effective pesticide. The material’s abrasive and absorbent qualities draw moisture out of insects, essentially dehydrating them to death. DE can be sprinkled around the base of plants, but will need to be reapplied after rain and watering.

• Space out plants. Tightly planted crops create a breeding ground for fungal diseases and also provide hiding spots and warmth for pests. Leaving room between plants can help avoid these issues, according to Gardening Channel.

• Use row covers or garden mesh. Many plants can be covered all year long as long as the covers are lifted during flowering if the crops depend on pollination by bees.

Veggiemesh® is a cover that can be laid over plants.

• Interplant crops in the garden. Interplanting is a technique that involves alternating crops, herbs and flowers to confuse the pests so they have a difficult time finding what they want to eat. Alternate rows of vegetables with herbs and flowers that appeal to beneficial insects.

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel

* On May 12, 1925, a Philadelphia radio station broadcasts the first all-star radio program featuring film actors and actresses. Sound films had not yet debuted, and it marked the first time that most listeners had heard the voices of film stars like Lillian Gish and Marion Davies. * On May 13, 1956, Gene Autry’s musical variety show, “Gene Autry’s Melody Ranch,” airs its final broadcast after 16 years. The show featured short skits about cowboys and rustlers, along with musical numbers by Autry, “America’s singing cowboy.” * On May 17, 1792, a group of 24 traders gather in lower Manhattan to work out the regulations of the speculative market. The result was the Buttonwood Agreement, a two-sentence contract that gave birth to the New York Stock Exchange.

STATISTICS SHOW JUST HOW BIG SMALL BUSINESS IS Small businesses and happiness might be linked.

DID YOU KNOW? According to the Alzheimer’s Association, people with a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s disease are more likely to develop the disease than those who do not have a first-degree relative with Alzheimer’s. In addition, those who have more than one firstdegree relative with Alzheimer’s are at an even greater risk of getting Alzheimer’s. Though family history is not necessary for an individual to develop Alzheimer’s, the AA notes that researchers have identified hereditary Alzheimer’s genes. For example, researchers estimate that between 40 and 65 percent of people diagnosed with Alzheimer’s have the APOE-e4 gene. APOE-e4 is characterized as a risk gene because it increases the likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s but does not guarantee it will happen.

The gene is inherited from a parent, and people who inherit two copies of APOE-e4 from their mother and father have a higher risk for Alzheimer’s than those who inherit one copy of the gene from their mother or father. The AA also notes that researchers have found deterministic genes that cause Alzheimer’s. However, these genes are rare and have only been found in a few hundred families across the globe, accounting for 1 percent or less of all Alzheimer’s cases.

Convenience versus safety sometimes it’s impossible to have both when it comes to tech devices.

There are more smart devices than we could have imagined 10 years ago, and every day brings something new. We have smart door locks, thermostats, refrigerators, indoor and outdoor security cameras, televisions, cellphones, light bulbs, speakers and wall plugs.

Whether it’s data breaches, surveillance, intrusions, hijack of your device or outright cyber attacks and theft of your information, smart devices can make you vulnerable if they are hacked.

Take smart thermostats, for example. Those smart gadgets track all kinds of things about you. Scariest of all is that they keep track of when you leave home and when you come back, information that a thief would like to have.

If you want a smart device, be sure you understand the downside and the risks. Keep the software updated, use strong passwords and understand the settings, especially on any device with a camera or microphone. Your smart television speakers could work in the reverse and capture the sounds in the room, for example.

Before you buy a smart device, or to learn more about devices you might already have, go online to search for “dangers of smart devices.”

If you want news about all things tech, you can do no better than Kim Komando. Sign up, and several times a week you’ll get an email newsletter packed with tech news. A lot of what she has to say concerns safety, how to avoid scams and what tech items to buy or avoid. I’ve subscribed for many years and know that she honors privacy preference settings and doesn’t sell names or email addresses. If you want to give it a try, go online to www.

Pizza continues to remain a popular comfort food and go-to staple for quick, family-friendly meals. Statistics Brain reports that 93 percent of Americans eat at least one piece of pizza per month. Five billion pizzas are sold worldwide each year, and the United States accounts for three billion of those pizzas. The average person will eat 46 slices of pizza each year. The world can thank Raffaele Esposito for creating the first pizza that resembled the pizza the world knows today. Esposito created the pizza for Italy’s Queen Margherita when she visited Naples in 1889. The crust was garnished with tomatoes, mozzarella and basil to represent the national colors of Italy: red, white and green.

(585) 728-2100 UNDERSTANDING LIFE INSURANCE When choosing coverage, you will no doubt be asked if you prefer term insurance or permanent insurance. Term insurance is the least expensive life insurance, and such policies only last for a predetermined number of years. Men and women may purchase life insurance policies if they only want life insurance until they retire or until their children reach adulthood.

Permanent insurance is more expensive and will last from the moment you purchase the policy until your death. Many people choose permanent life insurance policies so the money their beneficiaries receive upon their death can be used to pay estate taxes. In addition, there is an investment component to permanent insurance policies, as a portion of the premiums on such policies is invested (policies will spell out how the money is invested) and allowed to grow tax-free so long as the policy is open. Term insurance only provides protection with no investments.

Dorothy R. “Dottie” (Freese) Musgrove April 23, 2025 Dorothy R. “Dottie” (Freese) Musgrove, age 91, passed away peacefully on April 23, 2025, with her loving daughters by her side. Dottie was born and grew up in the town of Gates, New York. She moved to southern California (Hollywood) in 1956 where she became a fashion model for three years for Kathleen Peck Studio, which was located in the Capitol Records building in Hollywood. Dottie met and married Lloyd Bachtelle and had three daughters, Rochelle, Danielle and Michelle. Dottie returned to Rochester in 1967 with her daughters and became quite interested in dogs. Dottie owned and raised Keeshond dogs that were trained in both obedience and show for many years, with one of them recognized in the top 10 in the nation of the Keeshond breed. One of Dottie’s proudest moments was competing and showing her dog at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show at Madison Square Gardens, earning enough points to qualify her dog as an American and Canadian Champion. Dottie worked her entire life, beginning with her early years at Rochester Products, school bus driving for Gates-Chili and Naples Central Schools, and waitressing.

Dottie then went into business for herself as a professional dog groomer as owner and operator of The Tail Waggon Mobile Dog Grooming for over 25 years. Dottie then helped run and manage Rocky’s Pizza for several years. In her later years, Dottie continued her love of animals, becoming a home pet sitter throughout upstate New York. Dottie was a member of the Keeshond Club of Canada, the Keeshond Club of America, Rochester Dog Obedience Training Club, Hometown Animal Rescue Program (HARP) in Wayland, NY, Red Hat Society of Wayland, GENESEE VALLEY PENNY SAVER

and The Golden Agers. Dottie loved dancing! She was also proud of her military family as she proudly displayed them on her front door next to her patriotic wall. But Dottie will best be remembered by her love of playing Euchre, where she learned to play at a young age by her parents, and then passed on the love of the game to her daughters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Up until the time of her death, Dottie traveled three times a week to play in Euchre tournaments in and around the surrounding communities where she was best known as “Euchre Dottie” by her Euchre friends. At every family gathering, you could count on playing Euchre…a tradition that Dottie’s family will honor and continue in her legacy. Dottie was predeceased by her parents, Hugo and Lenna (Tracy) Freese; brother and sister-in-law, Donald (Buz) and Jeanette Freese; grandson, Adam Guzman, and long-time partner Joseph “Papa” Conte. Dottie is survived by her daughters, Rochelle Bachtelle, Danielle ( JR) Guzman and Michelle (AW) Tomlin; grandchildren, Jim (May) Clawson, David (Destiny) Clawson, Chris (Aimee) Clawson, Nick (Caitlin) Clawson, PJ (Taylor) Sulli, Olivia (Brandon) Hall, Daniel (Ilyce) Guzman, Cassie ( Joe) Freitas, Sam Caifano and Hallie Caifano; great-grandchildren, Luke, Trent, Brandon, David, Colton, Damian, Norah, Sophia, Bailey, Aria, Natalie and Jackson, along with several nieces, nephews and cousins. The family would like to thank Home Health Care for the unwavering personal care and support provided to Mom in her last years by Ashley, her nursing aide. Mom thought the world of her. There will be no prior calling hours. Dottie will be laid to rest at a private family graveside service. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a contribution in Dottie’s memory to the Wayland-Cohocton Animal Shelter, Hearthside Cats of Cohocton, or an animal shelter of your choice.

passages&memoriams David J. “Wishbone” Wolf April 26, 2025 David J. “Wishbone” Wolf, aged 86 and a lifelong resident of Dansville, passed away on Saturday, April 26, 2025, at the Livingston County Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Mt. Morris where he had been a resident for the past month.

Dave was born October 27, 1938, in Dansville the son of the late Charles W. and Alice L. (Smith) Wolf Sr. He graduated from Dansville Central School in the Class of 1958. David served as a Sargent in the U.S. Army.

He served on active duty from 1961 – 1963 and then as a reservist from 1963 – 1967 during the Vietnam War. In his younger years he had been employed at the former Star Market in Dansville until their closing. After that he was employed by Wilmorite Corp at Marketplace Mall as a supervisor until his retirement. David was very active in the Dansville Community as a volunteer in the Fire Department. He joined the Union Hose Co. No. 1 in October 1959, serving there for over 65 years, and he was a charter member of the Dansville Ambulance Company. Through the years, he served in all the line officer’s positions of the fire company including Chief of the Dansville Fire Department from 1978 – 1980. He also served as president and a trustee of the Union Hose Co. After that, he continued his active fire service with the Livingston Co. Firefighter’s Assoc., where he was not only a member but continued his service as a past president. He was also a member of the Western New York Fireman’s Association, where he previously served on the EMS Committee, as president in 1994, and as past president. David, in his commitment to the fire service, served as

a trustee from Western New York to The Fireman’s Assoc. of the State of New York for the Fireman’s Home on the Hudson from 2008-2018, where he served for 10 dedicated years. He was also a member of the Livingston County Fire Chief ’s Assoc. and the New York State Chief ’s Assoc. Along with years of service on the former Livingston County Fire Advisory Board, David was also a member of the Daniel Goho Post #87 of the American Legion. David also enjoyed several trips to Germany in celebration of Oktoberfest.

He was predeceased by three brothers: John Wolf, Charles (Sharon) Wolf, Jr and Ronald Wolf; and two sisters Helen (Tom) Pilon and Linda (Ronald) Johnson. He was a beloved uncle, cherished by his many nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews.

As per David’s wishes, there will not be any prior calling hours. A graveside fireman’s service will be held on Thursday, May 29, 2025, at 11:00 AM in Greenmount Cemetery, followed by full military honors.

Following the ceremony at the cemetery, there will be a celebration of life in honor of David at the Dansville Moose Club, Main St. Dansville.

Family and friends are welcome to attend.

Those who wish to make a contribution in David Wolf ’s memory can send it to the Dansville Fire Department, Inc., PO Box 401 or the Union Hose Co. No.1, PO Box 84, both of Dansville, NY 14437.

passages&memoriams Evelyn Laura (Pfuntner) Rowe April 29, 2025 Wayland: Evelyn made her Heavenly Journey on Tuesday, April 29, 2025 at age 94. She passed peacefully at home surrounded by her loving family.

Evelyn was born on October 10, 1930, in Dansville, NY, to the late Raymond and Ruby (Snyder) Pfuntner. She was a remarkably courageous woman. Evelyn dedicated her life to her family with strength, kindness and a loving heart. Some of her favorite joys were to sing, draw and recite her impromptu poems, which she shared with her family and friends to the very end.

With joy and pride, Evelyn provided care to others through her work in healthcare at Sonyea, the VA in Bath, NY, and Lifeline Home Care through Noyes Memorial Hospital. After retirement, she compassionately served the elderly and disabled by providing pedicures and manicures well into her 80s. She firmly believed, “Use it or lose it!” - hence her long life.

Evelyn’s life was marked by devotion to family and a love for simple joys. She treasured time spent riding the backroads with her children and grandchildren taking them on grand adventures, often stopping to pick wild apples prepared with a knife and a salt shaker. Many days were prepped with a picnic basket filled with sandwiches, songs and stories to share. She also made time for her siblings, nieces and nephews and her many friends. Her love was abundant and unconditional, and she was deeply loved in return.

In addition to her parents, Evelyn was predeceased by her husband, Harry J. Rowe; her companion, Francis J. Charland; her siblings Marjorie Irene Nenci, Mary Louise Clark, Shirley Marie Carnell, Ruth (Boots) Anna

Francis, Walter Henry Pfuntner and Arthur Raymond (Buddy) Pfuntner; and her children Linda Lee Turner, Mildred Arlene Rowe, Kathie Evelyn (Rowe) Sleight and Randy Nelson Rowe.

She is survived by her children: Donald Arthur Rowe (Susie) of Rochester; Donna Lee (Rowe) Howe ( James) of South Dansville; Harriet Ella (Rowe) Sleggs (Kermit) of Conesus; Harry Jay Rowe (Dawn) of Dansville; Ruby Lynn (Rowe) Hawxhurst (Kevin) of Nunda; Marcia Louise (Rowe) Smalt (Randy) of Avoca; and Deborah Sue (Rowe) Sanders of Dansville; along with over one hundred (100) grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren, all of whom she cherished with her heart and soul. Evelyn is also survived by her siblings, Caroline (Linnie) Mulley (Frank) and Raymond John (RJ) Pfuntner (Linda). In keeping with Evelyn’s wishes, services will be held privately.

Evelyn’s Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, May 18 from 1pm until 4pm at the Moose Lodge in Dansville, NY. Friends and family are welcome to come and share their memories and joys of knowing such a magnificent woman. Memorial contributions in honor of Evelyn may be made to CareFirst Hospice at 3805 Meads Creek Road, Painted Post, NY 14870 or Haskinsville Wesleyan Church at 8727 Haskinsville Road, Cohocton, NY 14826.

Evelyn lived an incredible life full of love, service and adventure. Now she is free living eternal life in Heaven with a God that she had faith in all her living days. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. She will be missed.

Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the Walter E. Baird & Sons Funeral Home in Wayland.

WHAT IS A WILL? The online financial resource Investopedia notes that wills are legally enforceable documents that dictate how people want their affairs handled and assets allocated in the wake of their deaths.

Wills should include a host of information, including who a person wants to assume guardianship of their minor-aged children should they pass away. This is especially important information to include in a will, as surviving relatives may have to go to court to contest guardianship if parents do not dictate who they want to serve as guardians in their wills.

FINDING WORK AFTER 50 Unemployment isn’t easy for anyone, regardless of their age. But unemployed men and women over 50 may find it especially difficult to find work.

Whether it’s a byproduct of age-related discrimination or any of a host of additional variables, jobless older workers often struggle to find work. In a 2016 analysis of government figures, the Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis at the New School estimated that the jobless rate for workers 55 and older in August of 2016, six years after the Great Recession, was nearly 9 percent. At the time, the national jobless rate hovered around 5 percent.

Unemployed men and women over 50 who are struggling to find work can consider the following strategies as they look to rejoin the workforce.

Revisit your résumé. Unemployed men and women over 50 have no doubt updated their résumés to reflect their most recent professional experience.

But they may need to trim some of the fat in regard to their work life 10 or more years ago. Today’s hiring managers may only be concerned with recent experience that illustrates skillsets that are relevant to today’s jobs.

Men and women over 50 may consider their experience from 20 years ago invaluable, but if that experience does not meet the specific needs of the jobs they’re now seeking, then they should remove it from their résumés so hiring managers can quickly access the more relevant information from their work histories.

Embrace 21st century job hunting. Finding a job in the second decade of the 21st century is unlike job hunting in decades prior, and wholly different from how men and women over 50 looked for jobs upon beginning their professional lives. Networking can mean the difference between unemployment and landing a job. Go to job fairs attended by hiring managers and join professional organizations that host events where professionals in your field can gather.

Turn your age into a positive. Men and women over 50 should accept the likelihood that their new managers and/or hiring managers will be younger than them. When interviewing for a job, men and women over 50 should make an effort to showcase their enthusiasm about working with and learning from younger colleagues, while also noting their desire to commit long-term to a company. Some hiring managers may surprise older applicants, viewing them as potentially more reliable than younger workers simply looking to gain some experience in a particular industry before moving on to the next opportunity.

Make use of your existing down time. Another strategy unemployed men and women over 50 can try as they look for work is to make better use of their existing downtime. Enrolling in online courses can give prospective employers the impression that applicants over 50 are both tech-savvy and willing to learn new things. Each of those things can help men and women over 50 overcome any unjustified, tech-related stigmas that hiring managers may attach to older job candidates.

Finding work after 50 is not always easy, and job seekers may need to adjust their approach before they can get back in the workforce.
