is Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women of our armed forces who made the ultimate sacrifice. Today and always, we express our deepest gratitude for the heroes who gave everything so we could live in peace and liberty.
Across Western New York, Civil War monuments stand in small-town squares, often overlooked in daily life. In Le Roy, the Soldiers’ Monument at Trigon Park was erected in 1901 to honor Civil War dead and later expanded to include names from other conflicts. In Avon, a striking obelisk dedicated in 1877 remains the centerpiece of Memorial Day activities. These monuments were paid for by the public, nickel by nickel, bake sale by bake sale, making them community-built testaments of gratitude. Featuring these monuments in Memorial Day observances connects today’s generation with those who built them.
INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT MEMORIAL DAY
Freed slaves played a role in the establishment of Memorial Day. The American Civil War is the deadliest military conflict in American history, as the Union and the Confederacy each suffered more than 800,000 casualties by the time the war ended in 1865. According to History.com, as the war drew to a close, hundreds of Union soldiers who were being held as prisoners of war died and were buried in a mass grave in a Confederate prison camp in South Carolina. After the Confederate surrender, more than 1,000 now-freed slaves honored those recentlydeceasedUnionsoldiersduring a ceremony in which they sang hymns and distributed flowers. The ceremony was dedicated to the fallen soldiers and served as a precursor to what is now celebrated as Memorial Day.

Lawns and gardens can often benefit from the laying of mulch. Mulch serves various purposes in lawns and gardens, and many experienced lawn and garden enthusiasts lay mulch to ensure their properties make it through spring, summer and fall unscathed.
First-time homeowners with little or no landscaping experience may not understand the benefits of mulch, which can be used to strengthen soil and protect properties from the elements.

* On May 24, 1935, the Cincinnati Reds beat the Philadelphia Phillies 2-1 in Major League Baseball’s first-ever night game, played under recently installed lights at Crosley Field in Cincinnati. The game drew 25,000 fans as President Franklin D. Roosevelt symbolically switched on the lights from Washington, D.C.
BEAT THE TRAVEL CROWDS THIS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND
Avoid peak travel times. The easiest way to find yourself stuck in Memorial Day traffic is to hit the road during peak travel times. Many people have embraced the “leave early” trend to holiday weekend travel, so the roads may be busier than drivers would expect on Thursday afternoon and evening. If it’s possible, drivers can hit the road prior to 3 p.m. Thursday. If work and kids’ school schedules make that impossible, delay your departure until late Thursday night or before the sun rises on Friday morning. Late at night or very early in the morning might not make for the most accommodating travel time, but roads tend to be the least congested at these times.

Though no one knows the true origin of the first scavenger hunts, which evolved from folk games, Elsa Maxwell has been credited with the creation and popularization of the scavenger hunt in the 1930s. Elsa Maxwell was dubbed “hostess with the mostest” and had an affinity for throwing luxurious and entertaining parties. She often organized scavenger hunts for the guests that involved roaming around town, seeking objects from a list.

Not Everyone Who Has Artery Blockages Requires Surgery
DEAR DR. ROACH: I have HIV and pulmonary hypertension. I was part of a research study, and a scan found blockages of about 50% in my carotid arteries. I’ve never had any symptoms or a stroke. Do I need to have surgery? -- V.P.
ANSWER: In general, screening for blockages in the carotid arteries that provide blood flow to the brain is not recommended, but occasionally, I do see people who get the diagnosis made as part of a study or as a result of a diagnostic test that was performed for some other reason. Screening means that there are no present symptoms, and the management of asymptomatic blockages is different from symptomatic ones. Not everybody with blockages needs surgical intervention. Guidelines recommend against surgery in people with no symptoms who have less than 70% stenosis. Only when the blockage is greater than 70% is surgery considered.
Medical treatment is effective at reducing the risk of a stroke and includes a high dose of a potent statin agent, aspirin, the careful control of high blood pressure and diabetes (if appropriate), quitting smoking, a healthy diet (such as Mediterraneanstyle), regular exercise, and weight reduction in some people.
HIV itself increases the risk of stroke by about 40% compared to people without HIV, so it is appropriate to be more aggressive at reducing risk factors.This is similar to what we see in people with chronic inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, who have a higher heart disease and stroke risk than what would be expected based on their other risk factors.
Your HIV provider may wish to consult an expert in cardiovascular disease prevention to help you reduce your stroke risk, although many HIV experts are also skilled primary care doctors themselves. Keeping HIV under control (ideally with no detectable virus) may help reduce inflammation and consequently bring down the additional risk of heart attack and stroke associated with HIV.
DEAR DR. ROACH: My spouse is frustrated by a nagging case of plantar fasciitis. It’s been continuing for five or six months now. No amount of stretching, icing or resting seems to help. They are considering using a plantar fasciitis sock device that holds the foot in a specific position to provide relief. I am wondering if you could provide any other suggestions on how to reduce or eliminate this problem. -- M.R.
ANSWER: Plantar fasciitis is among the most common causes of foot pain, with nearly 1% of people complaining of plantar fasciitis pain during the previous month. Inflammation and pain most commonly occur at the bottom of the foot, just in front of the heel. The pain is often worst during the first step in the morning. Rest and cushioned shoes or heel pads are helpful for most people. I am cautious about recommending stretching, especially when the pain is severe, as overdoing stretching can make things worse.Still,most people find stretching to be of benefit. When symptoms do not get resolved with conservative management, I refer patients to a podiatrist. Some people just take a long time to heal, but 80% are better within a year. When conservative measures have failed to bring relief, your spouse’s podiatrist might consider an injection of a steroid.

WARRIOR SALUTE:
Transitional Housing Offers Local Veterans Healing and Community
BY KATRINA M. RANDALL
“As veterans, there used to be a stigma attached to opening up about things we’ve seen and things we’ve been through. Recently, it has been more acceptable to open up about our feelings, and that’s where the healing begins.”
JIM STAMPFER
Safe places for homeless veterans throughout Western New York and the United States are critically lacking, especially withnearly47,000acrossthecountry,accordingtoVolunteers of America Upstate New York. is deficit is one reason why Warrior Salute Veteran Services was launched in 2010. Since then, the Webster-based nonprofit has offered a safe place for veterans to get the support they need.
Providing transitional housing through Nucor House on Embury Rd. as well as individual case management, Warrior Salute Veteran Services helps veterans struggling with substance misuse or mental health concerns such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) transition back into their community.
Jim Stampfer, a U.S. Army veteran and Warrior Salute’s program manager, says, “Transitional housing for homeless veterans is a dire need. ere are times when I’ve had up to 15 veterans on our waitlist.”
e nonprofit provides veterans with a safe place, at no cost, so they can work on their recovery and focus on transitioning to successful, independent living. Warrior Salute can help up to 14 veterans a month and up to 30 veterans a year, Stampfer says. In addition to providing case management and transportation, the organization partners with other veteran resources in the Rochester area.
According to the Salute the Troops Foundation, “Housing stability is crucial in the overall well-being and successful reintegration of veterans into civilian life.” Without it, they’re at a higher risk of substance misuse issues and struggles with mental health.
Without the organization and Nucor House, Neil, a veteran spotlighted by the organization on social media, wouldn’t be where he is today. “ is house means freedom and peace,” he says in a video account of his journey from addiction to recovery. Nucor House (named a er its benefactor Nucor Steel) is a fully furnished, sober-living house offering all-inclusive supportive housing services for veterans, which includes food and transportation. Also vital to recovery, the organization’s programming offers community.

resources, it also means sponsored trips, visits from school children with the intent to bring joy, fun times at Buffalo Bills Training Camp, and other community-oriented activities.
Stampfer says, “Being a veteran myself, I have plenty of the same experiences and a shared language that helps establish trust amongst the veterans in our program. Veterans that leave our program have gone on to purchase their own homes. We have veterans that go on to peer support for other veterans in the same situation. e biggest impact is that many of our veterans that leave can now manage their mental health.”
As Memorial Day approaches, recognizing our nation’s veterans who died in service, May is also Mental Health Awareness Month and Military Appreciation Month. Combined, it’s a month that’s especially vital to spreading awareness about veterans a er they return from service. Stampfer says, “As a veteran working in a field where I assist veterans with PTSD, TBI, anxiety, depression, and MST, it cannot be understated how important it is that we continue to advocate for resources. We also need veterans to step forward and ask for help when needed.”
As a Penfield resident and voice for veterans in his community, Stampfer will be the guest speaker at the Town of Penfield’s Memorial Day Ceremony of

June is PTSD Awareness Month. Stampfer says, “As veterans, there used to be a stigma attached to opening up about things we’ve seen and things we’ve been through. Recently, it has been more acceptable to open up about our feelings, and that’s where the healing begins.” With Warrior Salute and other organizations like it, veterans receive the support they need to thrive post-service.

Should indoor cats wear flea collars?
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: At my cat’s last veterinary visit, it was recommended that she wear a flea collar or get a monthly flea treatment. “Belle” is a completely indoor cat and has never had fleas. Why do I need to prevent her from getting them? -- Carla G., Gulf Shores, Alabama
DEAR CARLA: While it seems totally reasonable to not treat Belle for fleas, there is always a risk of getting them. This is the same logic behind routine vaccinations -- it’s unlikely that an indoor cat will be exposed to rabies, but there is always a chance.
I’ll give you a personal example. Last fall, I took care of a friend’s dog for a few weeks while they were away dealing with a family emergency. On the first day, I noticed that “Kerry” was chewing on his tail and his hair was almost gone at the base of his tail. I knew right away that he had fleas, and a visual check confirmed it. All of my pets are treated for fleas, even though my cat stays indoors. With my friend’s permission, I treated Kerry with a topical flea treatment and kept him separated from the other pets for a few days until no live fleas could be found in his fur. I also monitored all my pets for fleas during his visit.
I hadn’t planned on Kerry arriving with fleas, but his owner had forgotten to give him his monthly flea treatment for a couple of months. This unplanned situation could have been a real problem for me and my pets.
There’s an old saying that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” and that is certainly the case with fleas, which can be hard to eliminate from your home once they get a foothold. There are many options today -- not just collars -- to prevent fleas from getting on your cat. Talk to your vet about the treatment they recommend for Belle.
Do your part. If you’re traveling by air, confirm everything you’ll need to get through security and onto the plane as quickly as possible. Make sure passports and other forms of identification are current. Pack bags wisely so there are no surprises at check-in time. The more details you tend to in advance of your departure, the less stressful your travel day will be.

Retirement: Now at?
Some of us are new to retirement and the questions quickly become: Now what? What do I do with my days? Do I continue to set the alarm for the same time in the mornings?
If you planned in detail for your retirement and have a long list of things you intend to do, you know where to begin.
But the questions about what to do with our retired days can be poignant for those who perhaps didn’t have a choice about retirement. Maybe there were health considerations. Maybe there were expectations of retirement upon reaching a certain age in a certain career. But for whatever reason, here’s retirement, ready or not. Now what?
Start with a piece of paper and a pen. Make a list, the longer the better, of every interest you have. Ideally, somewhere on that list are the makings of worthwhile activities that are physical, social and mental.
Here are some random possibilities: explore photography, teach swimming at the YMCA, write a novel, knit or crochet hats and mittens for the local Santa fund next winter, create a family scrapbook with genealogy information and photos for the next generation, play pickleball at the rec center, become a Citizen Scientist (see CitizenScience.gov), join a walking group, take a pottery class with a grandchild.
Level: Beginner
Then there are the all-important brain-stretcher activities: learn to play piano or guitar (or brush up on old skills), take a college course, play chess online, take a computer class to upgrade your skills, learn a language online (see Duolingo.com), read a book a week or start a book club.
My personal list includes dogs at the animal shelter.There are lots of dogs who need to be taken on adventure walking afternoons to pick up their spirits. I can do that a few times a week.

Act of Kindness
Recently, while dining at T’s Restaurant in Webster for breakfast, I had to help my husband sit down in the booth, and cut his pancakes and bacon for him. He has some disabilities. When we finished, the waitress came by and said that we were all set regarding the bill. I looked at her, puzzled, and she told us that another patron had noticed how I had cared for my husband, and paid our bill! We were so taken aback by that gesture. Our deepest gratitude and thanks to that kind soul. May God bless you!

Auction Never Paid for My Goods
An auctioneer came to my home and told me he could sell all the things I had to sell, giving me 75% of the money he received and he’d keep only 25% for himself. I said good. He seemed like a decent man. October 2024, he loaded a large trailer with all my stuff, including a bedroom with all the furniture. They were in my garage about four hours taking everything they could. To this day, I haven’t gotten anything from him. I do have pictures of all the stuff they took. I don’t know what to do at this time. Do not trust anyone who comes to your house telling you they want to auction off your goods as they did mine. Be aware and beware.

GET A HANDLE ON WORK-RELATED STRESS
Take more time off. According to the “State of American Vacation 2016” report from Project: Time Off, American workers failed to use 658 million vacation days in 2015. Vacation is not just a time to get away, but a valuable, effective way for workers to recharge. The APA notes that avoiding the negative effects of chronic stress and burnout requires workers to take time away to replenish and return to their pre-stress level of functioning. Taking time off to disconnect from work and avoid thinking about work can be just what workers need to overcome their work-related stress. And plenty of workers have the time to take off; they just need to take it.

NETWORKING
STRATEGIES FOR THE DIGITAL AGE
Personalize your connections. The days of sharing a post-work drink with a colleague may be over. But networking in the digital age need not be impersonal. When using professional networking sites such as LinkedIn, personalize the messages you send to other professionals when inviting them to join your network. Use the message to briefly introduce yourself and explain your connection before explaining why you want the person to become part of your network. Welcome any questions and warmly thank them for their time. This personal touch can make you stand out in a digital sea of people, many of whom simply want to add other professionals to their network without necessarily making genuine connections.
