Sel Richard Staff writer Three intrepid souls who saved a motorist from his burning car were honored at the Rescue Fire Department last week. Scott and Veronica Morrison and Jacob Hathaway are the reason Ray Jerrett is alive. In August 2019 Jerrett careened off the road into a rock near the intersection of Deer Valley and Rough Ridge roads. Within minutes flames were licking the crumpled metal, pinning a semi-conscious Jerrett into a burning cage. “Somebody just hit a tree,” Scott recalled telling his wife. He and his wife Veronica were watching television that night when he heard the crash. “She jumped in the truck with me and we gassed it up the hill. We came up around the corner at Rough Ridge (and) there it was.” Veronica called 911 as Scott leapt over a barbed-wire fence toward a car quickly succumbing to a growing blaze.
he Veterans Day Drive-by Caravan that began at the El Dorado Hills Estates Senior Center, continued onto five other senior communities throughout El Dorado County and ended at the El Dorado County Veterans Monument in Placerville brought smiles and cheers to local veterans, their families and friends last week. “The purpose of the drive-by caravan is to drive by the senior communities where several veterans are living and let them know ■

CRIB NOTES by Julie Samrick
OUR COMPLIMENTARY SERVICES:
Look to the people
M
y husband and I have split political beliefs, which might be a head-scratcher to some because he and I are a great match. I understand from our life experiences why we have different politics and we both have learned to not only accept, but to even appreciate those differences. Our conversations about politics are rich, sometimes heated, but always respectful. We are each other’s weathervane for what the other side thinks. Because of this, as my kids get older it has become evident that they have been exposed to both sides of political issues and for this I am very proud as a parent. Like most Americans, I have been gripped to the news during the 2020 election. The unbelievably close, razor-thin margins in the electorate are a reminder that it’s important to vote and that our two-party political system is healthy for democracy. But instead of being viewed as a positive, an opportunity to learn from the other 50% of Americans who have different visions for our country, increasingly both halves want to see a one-party country. Instead of dialogue, many dismiss the “other side” as not being as intelligent or even moral. It seems there will be no rest until the other side comes to its senses and joins the other, leaving Americans ragged, exhausted and bruised. There were a lot of exclamations and shock as early results came, mostly that it wasn’t the landslide victory for Biden many people predicted. The essence of the shock was: How could the pollsters have been so wrong (yet again)? And, how could so many people have supported Trump?
• Hearing Assessment** & Video Otoscopy • Cleanings, Repairs & Adjustments • 45-Day Risk-Free Trial** • Financing & Flexible Payment Options Available
The people had spoken. What were we going to do about it? I held my breath, growing hopeful that instead of being dismissed, real dialogue might come once tensions simmered. But the next morning I saw posts on social media that made me realize we will remain on the same hamster wheel of disconnect. I noticed some Biden supporters deleted their accounts because they were so disgusted. Assumptions flew, dismissing the 70 million people who voted for Trump as people in an abusive relationship. And we wonder why people aren’t honest with pollsters? We need to stop dismissing people who don’t agree with us. We won’t make inroads until we start talking with one another and not over social media or text. We shouldn’t all be the same. We should have a two-party system. We can see our division as an opportunity to learn and to grow. The national media has failed miserably in showing our human complexities. One journalist got it right. On Nov. 4 New York Times columnist David Brooks wrote, “The voters reminded us yet again that the other side is not going away … They know more about their own lives than we do in our information bubbles … Our job in the media is to capture reality so that when reality voices itself, people aren’t surprised.” Because of the way things are presented to us in simplistic terms, many Americans have one-dimensional attitudes about people who think differently than they do, despite, ironically, living in one of the ■

GUEST COLUMN by Ted Gaines
s the media focuses overwhelmingly on the drawn-out presidential election, we shouldn’t ignore the defeat of Prop. 15, a massively consequential outcome for Californians. Even in this most liberal state, where sales taxes, income taxes and gas taxes march ever upward, Prop. 15’s loss shows that Prop. 13 taxpayer protections remain important, popular and necessary. Once again, Prop. 13’s deep roots proved tough to tear out. Prop. 15 was the latest of many attempts to dismantle the state’s most famous taxpayer reform. Prop. 15 would have eliminated a key business property protection by subjecting these properties to reassessments at least every three years, exposing them to massive tax increases far above the 2% cap guaranteed by Prop. 13. It would have gutted the agricultural industry by requiring reassessments of barns, silos, processing facilities, mature fruit and nut trees and other property that currently falls under Prop. 13’s protections. Small business owners with “triple net” leases, already reeling from COVID, would have faced a wave of property tax increases as they look to rebound. California’s business climate is already terrible — it has earned CEO Magazine’s worst place to do business “honor” for a decade straight — and Prop. 15 would have certainly made it worse. But besides avoiding the direct damage Prop. 15 would have inflicted on business, its Election Day defeat is important for the precedent it continues. Prop. 13 is the most important tax law in California and must be defended completely. Voters sent yet

another signal that it cannot be weakened. It can’t be torn down piece-by-piece. It can’t be carved up for special exemptions supposedly aimed only at big business. Voters know that once Prop. 13 suffers a single chip in its exterior then the entire pillar is primed for collapse. This time it was big (and small) businesses in the crosshairs, but next election cycle it will be homes worth more than $2 million, then homes worth $1 million, then assessments every 20 years, then they will be coming after your home. A Prop. 13 patchwork of gradually shrinking exclusions would soon exist only as a memory. I’ve spent nearly two decades in public service as a taxpayer advocate and champion of Prop. 13. The law is a savior for overtaxed Californians. It’s saved homeowners and business property owners billions over the past 42 years and provided them with a stable, predictable bill every year, allowing for planning and budgeting and eliminating the tax spikes the led to closed storefronts and seniors losing their homes in the 1970s. Prop. 13’s enduring effectiveness is what makes it a constant target. A check on taxes is also a check on government growth and a boon for the economy. Defeating Prop. 15 will keep more than $11 billion a year out of government slush funds and in the pockets of business owners who can use it to expand, invest and hire more employees. That is critical as California businesses scramble to stay alive and rebuild out of the ■

New memorials dedicated at future veterans park site Sel Richard Staff writer The skies were blue and bright as crowds gathered to honor veterans at a Promontory Park Veterans Day dedication event. U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Robert Leon (ret.) welcomed community members to the unveiling of the new First Responders and Veterans memorials at the future site of the 1.2-acre Veterans Memorial Park in El Dorado Hills. On the brisk morning Leon expressed gratitude for the numerous contributors to the memorial project, including the Rotary Club of El Dorado Hills, EDH Promise Foundation as well as El Dorado Hills Community Services District board and staff. As the El Dorado Hills Fire Department Honor Guard ceremoniously performed the posting of colors, young and old stood silently in respect for the men and women who have served and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. The dual memorials are the culmination of an Eagle Scout project by Boy Scout Troop 645 members Ian Koopman and John Reimer, both freshmen at University of Nevada, Reno, and Oak Ridge High School senior Alex Wolff. Koopman created the First Responders Memorial, a project that originally began as a bronze plaque to be installed at the EDHCSD pavilion. “Thank you everyone for coming to this monumental occasion, pun intended,” Koopman quipped, going on to explain that his purpose for the memorial was to recognize first responders for keeping the community safe. “To all first responders, thank you.” Reimer spoke of the American flag as an important
symbol in his life. “I’m just extremely grateful that I and these other Scouts have had the opportunity to kick start this Veterans Memorial Park,” he said, acknowledging those who helped him along the way, in particular with the permitting required to construct a flagpole next to two nearby power lines. “It’s quite a bit harder than you would think,” Reimer admitted. Along with creating the Veterans Monument, Wolff helped his fellow Scouts with the construction of the pathway access. “Missing time with your family, holidays and birthdays, facing the hardships of war and the willingness to sacrifice yourself and your brave brothers and sisters is truly the most brave and selfless act one can do and I cannot be more thankful,” he said. “I know it’s not much compared to your sacrifice, but I hope it can be a place to reflect and feel appreciated by our community.” EDH Fire Chief Maurice Johnson presented the three Scouts with official EDH Fire patches and fire chief’s coins. CSD Board President Ben Paulsen, who said his father served two tours of duty in Vietnam with the Army, was excited about the dedication as well as the future park, conveying appreciation for the many veterans in attendance. “I’ve just always admired what that’s given him and his discipline in his life,” he said. “This monument is a small but important sign of our community’s desire to recognize and remember our veterans,” said EDH Promise Foundation president Allan Priest. “These young men are a great example of how our youngest generation can help us all remember to appreciate those who have valiantly served our great nation.” “This means a lot to me,” U.S. Army Sgt. Simon Huber said of those congregated to

we care and thank them for their service,” said Kathy Hatten, community outreach director for Visiting Angels Home Care, which organized the Veterans Day event. Visiting Angels led the parade followed by the National Guard Humvee, vintage military vehicles, American Legion Harley Bike Riders, the Cameron Park Corvette Club and more; the Vista Del Lago Fishing Club towed a boat. In addition, “Mail Call” packets that consisted of thank you letters written by school and community groups were delivered to each veteran along with a challenge coin. Fred Tillich, manager of El Dorado Hills Estates retirement living facility, said he has 14 resident veterans. “This generation really represents what the
United States and patriotism means to us,” Tillich said during the parade. “We need to remember to treat them with respect and be grateful.” Al Johnson served 11 months in Vietnam as a bomber pilot. “I shot down a Chinese MiG-17,” he shared, choking up as he remembered his fellow soldiers. “It’s really touching. I lost a lot of friends.” Linda Bayless served more than 30 years as a medic on a plane, a firefighter and a dispatcher, and she spent several years in the Philippines. “Being a veteran is a great honor,” she said. “One way we can all come together (is) to honor our veterans.” “Even amid this pandemic we were able to honor our veterans and had a fabulous turn out,” added Brandy Wobschall, client care Manager for visiting Angels Home Care. “We did not want COVID to
keep us from honoring our heroes so with the help of our community we were able to coordinate a safe and socially distant Veterans Day Caravan. “Our caravan of nearly 40 vehicles, visited five different senior communities with more than 200 veterans in El Dorado County, which has the highest per capita of veterans in any county in California,” she added. “Our community really came through and helped us with our Letters of Gratitude campaign and pulled out all the stops. We received hundreds of letters from schools, community groups and private citizens that we were able to distribute to our veterans and they really enjoyed reading them. “We truly love our veterans,” she concluded. “We love to celebrate them and learn from them too.”
