By Bob Vosseller JACKSON - As Memorial Day will not be observed this year with parades or live ceremonies, many residents are being urged to remember veterans and those lost and impacted by war during that solemn day.

There are those veterans, however, that need to be remembered every day. The Lt. Dennis W.

Zilinski, II Memorial Fund in New Jersey is bringing awareness to a rise in suicides by veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Fund has launched a mental health awareness campaign for them.

The Memorial Fund was founded in memory of Lt. Dennis Zilinski, of Mid-

Teachers Appreciation Day Goes Online

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON – Teacher Appreciation Day couldn’t be observed in the usual way thanks to the conditions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic but remote learning didn’t prevent parent teacher groups and students from joining forces to express their gratitude.

With the school buildings remaining closed for the duration of the current school year, Teacher Appreciation Day was observed virtually. Several township schools created videos that combined music, messages and students holding up signs of thanks for their educators.

At the ELMS Elemen-

tary School, students showed their love for their teachers with a video that was introduced

by PTN President Laura Spencer.

Spencer declared that the PTN had taken over the school’s morning message and declared, “today is a very special day because it is Teacher Appreciation Day. We

wish we were at school right now at our annual luncheon and gift raffle all set up for you. We are all thankful for our wonderful teachers at ELMS.” She added that the teachers always “go above and beyond their commitment to their students.

You have all stepped up to the challenge of remote

learning in an amazing way.”

Spencer shared a Dr. Seuss-inspired poem: “I will teach you in a room.

I will teach you now on Zoom. I will teach you in a house. I will teach you with my mouse. I will teach you here or there.

I will teach you because I care.”

Development Issues Bring Officials Under Fire

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON - Township Officials found themselves under a text attack by residents who watched the latest council meeting conducted through Zoom.

The governing body faced some criticism once they announced that they were seeking to repeal two town ordinances.

While ordinance 04-17 banned dormitories anywhere in the Township as a permitted use, that ordinance was redundant because dormitories were not a permitted use in the first place, officials said.

The second ordinance, 03-17, eliminated certain Jackson zones from permitting schools. Both of the these motions would now put “the ordinances back to where they were in 2017 with respect to certain zones,” Township Attorney Gregory McGuckin said.

Vice Council President Alex Sauickie, Councilman Andrew Kern, and Councilman Martin Flemming voted to repeal the ordinances while Councilman Ken Bressi abstained.

New Park Rules Set Mayor Vs. Governor

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON – In a case of the mayor versus the governor, there is a strong disagreement about how the Gov. Phil Murphy is interpreting a plan that would reactivate some activities in township parks and recreation areas.

Mayor Michael Reina asked acting Council President Alex Sauickie to read a statement in his absence during a May 12 council meeting. “It is certainly no secret that I feel Gov. Murphy has gone too far with aspects of his executive orders.

In one area the jurisdiction falls to the Jackson municipality and that is our parks and recreation.”

Reina’ statement added that provided that social distancing is observed, that park facilities and playgrounds could be open with parents remaining in their vehicles “for such activities” in regards to children’s athletic activities.

“Fields for soccer, lacrosse, baseball, softball (with no scrimmaging and no spectators on the field or sidelines) will be allowed,” the mayor said (Governor - See Page 17)

Continued From Page 1 a well-known advocate for veterans with PTSD and a motivational speaker for the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office. He openly spoke about his attempted suicide several years ago in an effort to help others cope.

“Support systems are critical for veterans who struggle with PTSD. Telling them they can’t leave their homes, see their friends, go to work, exercise at the gym, and do all the things that help keep them sane is pure torture,” she added.

Zilinski noted that, “they are left with nothing but their own thoughts, which unfortunately, can lead to a downward spiral of depression, anxiety, and fear. Having a service dog can help bring security and comfort to their lives.”

Combat Army Veteran William Rommel, a father of four from Brick who also suffers from PTSD, said his service dog, Rio, a great Dane/labrador mix was a lifesaver. Rommel tried to end his life twice after he returned from Iraq.

“My service dog saved my life. Rio has given me purpose. His minimum needs are met by me. He pulls me out of the dark and has taught me how to love,” Rommel said.

“Now, the pandemic has us all (veterans with PTSD) on edge. It’s definitely a trigger. I had been going to group therapy every week which was helping my PTSD. We’ve been trying to do it on Zoom, but it’s just not cutting it. I’m grateful to have Rio to calm me.”

Rommell added, “When I’m getting anxious and my heart rate goes up, he places his paw on my chest reminding me to calm down. He also helps keep people away from me and my family with the social distancing. It stresses me right now when people come too close.”

Fellow combat Veteran David Crenshaw of

Teachers:

Continued From Page 1 “Thank you, ELMS teachers, for all the care you have shown our students, today and always.

Enjoy your day and know we are thinking of you,” Spencer said.

The video featured the school’s quote of the day which Emily, a 3rd grade student recited, “To teach is to touch a life forever!”

Principal Michael Burgos and Vice Principal Shawn Levinson were also featured in the video.

“Behind me is ELMS Elementary. It is just a pile of bricks. Why? Because it is not filled with all the amazing people that come here on a daily basis,” Levinson said.

“We miss all you teachers and we want to use this time to say thank you,” Burgos said. “Thank you to all our teachers for doing such an amazing job taking care of our kids and taking care of each other during this remote learning time and always throughout the year. There isn’t enough time to underscore the work each and every one of you do every day so from the bottom of our hearts on behalf of Mr. Levinson and I have a great Teacher Appreciation Day.” Giana, another 3rd greater added that the video was made as a thank you, “to all you super awesome teachers. We appreciate all your hard work.

We miss you.”

A similar video was created at the Switlik Elementary School which had a collaboration between PTN members and students to create a visual love letter to the school’s teachers.

Kearny says the pandemic restrictions created the “perfect storm” for his PTSD to intensify.

Crenshaw said, “Three weeks ago, my brother passed away suddenly. COVID-19 didn’t allow my family and me to grieve, as we were not permitted to have a service. It brought me right back to losing my mother four years ago. Death is a trigger for me after witnessing so much carnage during combat.”

“What helped me emerge from the darkness was my service dog, Doc, a black Labrador/German Short Hair Pointer mix. Doc tried desperately to get me back to normal. Eventually he succeeded.

I don’t know how I would have fared through this quarantine without him,” Crenshaw said.

Zilinski said she wanted veterans suffering from PTSD to know “the Zilinski Memorial Fund is here to help them receive that lifeline and connect them to other resources. Anyone struggling with PTSD or any mental health issues is urged to call 1-800-273-TALK (8255).”

To date, the Memorial Fund has sponsored more than 100 service dogs at a sponsorship of $15,000 per service dog. She added, veterans with PTSD interested in a service dog are encouraged to e-mail the Lt. Dennis W. Zilinski, II Memorial Fund at runwithdennis@yahoo.com.

The Memorial Fund provides scholarships to students at Lt. Zilinski’s alma mater, Christian Brothers Academy and Trinity Hall High School, both in New Jersey. By providing these scholarships, the Memorial Fund invests in the future of high school students who embody the leadership qualities and community spirit of Lt. Zilinski.

Zilinski said, “to help us raise awareness about all the good we do, follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube. Donations may be sent to: Lt. Dennis W. Zilinski, II Memorial Fund, P.O. Box 124, Adelphia, NJ 07710 or made online at runwithdennis.org.

“Thank you teachers,” students of Switlik said as they held up signs expressing gratitude to the various teachers of the school.

The students are shown saying “I miss you” and referencing their own teachers. “We can’t wait to get back to school.”

The song “Over the Rainbow” is played in the background to set a magical tone to the video production.

Not to be outdone the students and PTN of the Goetz School developed their own video which also featured students holding up signs with message of thanks to their teachers in an all musical production.

The students of Howard C. Johnson Elementary School put their messages of thanks to music with students holding up signs of thanks and expressing how much they missed their teachers and being in school.

Video creation has also been used for some other creative endeavors such as District Occupational Therapist Gina Palumbo’s sensor walk that combines lessons with outside physical activity. In the video a student is shown reciting the alphabet while walking and doing various exercises like jumping jacks, and broad jumps while following a special path.

Holman School students are seen taking part in a Tuesday Tik Tok video that mixes music with exercise and dancing.

A variety of video projects are available for viewing at the school district’s website for the enjoyment of the students, parents, teachers and staff along with the whole community at jacksonsd.org/Page/13145

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY F EATURED L ETTER Raise The Flags To Full Staff I implore the Governors of the states who have lowered the American Flag and State flags to half-staff to please order the flags back to full staff.

While our Governors have the authority to order State and the National flags to half-staff they should be aware that the flag of our Nation is never lowered to half-mast indefinitely or more than 30 days. Our flag is never lowered during a battle, we mourn and honor when the battle is over.

To put this into perspective; on Memorial Day, a day we as a nation honor all those who fought and died in our nations wars, we only half mast our flag in tribute for a period from sunrise to noon at which time the flag is returned smartly to full staff where it remains until sunset. This rather brief one day significant honor is all we allow to those who served and died in our nations wars.

The lowering of our flag is sacred and has specific limits, purpose and meaning to all those who have served.

Its use must not be abused.

When the order is received to lower the flag to half mast, depending on the purpose for the lowering, specified periods of mourning and honoring times are mandated and will be carried out accordingly.

I feel the ordered lowering of both National and State flags in tribute to the dead from coronavirus, is and was premature at this time because it does not merit nor honor all who will eventually die, as well as those who are

still presently serving to defeat this terrible pandemic.

It’s been more than 45 days and we’re still in the thick of it so when does the flag return to full staff?

For those who disagree and feel that the victims of this pandemic should be honored now by lowering the flag; thought should be given to a more fitting time after we have won this battle, and after we are well on our way to restore the country back to normal; so that all the heroes and fallen can be properly honored and accounted for.

We didn’t raise half-staff fl ags on Iwo Jima or at the World Trade Center disaster; we chose the highest place where all could see who we are, what we’re made of and what we stand for.

Truth is, right now is the best time to raise our flags with pride from every home, building, edifice, school, and high lofty place so it can be seen to wave freely as it should to motivate and inspire all those who are “continuing to serve and fall” in this civil battle; and to reassure all of us that we are really in this together and will defeat this unseen scourge with unity, dignity, strength and American determination.

American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Veterans, and all Military Service Organizations, where are you on this? Speak up tell the Governors to raise our flag back to full staff.

Lt. Edward Sere FDNY Ret. Manchester

Letters To The Editor Has There Been Progress In Helping Homeless?

Progress is defi ned as a gradual betterment, a forward or onward movement as to an objective or goal. To understand and appreciate progress, it is necessary to reflect on where we started, to see what changes we have made along the way to accomplish the goal of advancement. For most of us, we all seek progress, to better our lives and the lives of the people around us. Simply put, we seek to leave the world in a better place then we found it.

In applying the concept of progress to the homeless in Ocean County, we need to reflect on the past ten to fifteen years. Between 2005 and 2014, the homeless issue in Ocean County was making national headlines because of an area in Lakewood referred to as Tent City.

Tent City shined a bright light on Ocean County’s glaring lack of a permanent shelter for the homeless. During its time, Tent City became the County’s makeshift, non-sponsored shelter, as hundreds of people from various municipalities in Ocean County travelled to the woods off Cedarbridge Avenue to seek food, warmth and a place to rest. In 2014, Tent City was closed down.

Today, fifteen years after the start of Tent City, the question remains as to what progress we have made in Ocean County in providing shelter to the homeless? In 2020, there still is no permanent shelter for those in need in our county.

Tent City has now been replaced by Tent Towns, many smaller homeless encampments spread throughout the woods of municipalities all over Ocean County.

Certainly there has been some progress in the past 15 years. We have achieved brief periods of success with the advancement of the Code Blue program, which

Letters To any The Editor opens warming shelters municipality here in that never see the light of when the temperature dips below freezing. But the Code Blue program also demonstrates the need for a permanent year-round facility in Ocean County. In Toms River alone this year, 193 different individuals sought shelter in our Code Blue program. How many more people does it take to demonstrate the need for real progress?

Sometimes when municipalities and counties are resistant to change, the law steps in to mandate change that leads to progress. Such was the case just last year in Boise, Idaho, where the federal courts ruled in the case of Martin v. City of Boise, 920 F.3d 584, 616 (2019) that the Eighth Amendment prohibits criminal penalties against homeless individuals for sitting, sleeping or lying outside on public property, when they cannot obtain shelter.

One of the homeless plaintiffs in the Martin case was a woman named Janet Bell.

Ms. Bell suffered from mental and physical illnesses. She had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, learning disabilities and hepatitis. The Boise police gave her a citation for putting a bedroll in the woods to sleep. She pled guilty and was given a thirty-day suspended jail sentence.

In response to Ms. Bell’s challenge to her conviction, the federal court ruled that “so long as there is a greater number of homeless individuals in a jurisdiction than the number of available beds in shelters, the jurisdiction cannot prosecute homeless individuals for involuntarily sitting, lying and sleeping in public. That is, as long as there is no option of sleeping indoors, the government cannot criminalize indigent, homeless people for sleeping outdoors, on public property, on the false premise they had a choice in the matter.”

One might argue that the city of Boise was in a better position to defend itself than

Ocean County, as Boise had at least three shelters at the time of Ms. Bell’s prosecution. The shelters were just at full capacity. What are Ocean County and its municipalities going to say to the courts when inevitably a homeless individual steps up to challenge a prosecution of a local ordinance or statute for sleeping in public after the ruling in the Martin case?

Before the law mandates progress here, the County and our municipalities should work together to achieve progress. Most municipalities in Ocean County are probably unaware of the case from Boise, Idaho, but you can be certain that the advocates for those suffering from chronic homelessness are aware of it. We can achieve progress without the need for a Court mandating it first, and in doing so, we will have bettered our lives and the lives of the people around us.

Deaths Of Liberties There have been over 1,354,000 American war deaths through 2019 - including almost 500,000 during the Civil War. Over one million, three hundred fifty-four thousand Americans died during war to obtain in some cases (Revolutionary War, Civil War) and protect/preserve our precious freedoms and liberties.

None of these people went to war to die; they went to war to live - live in a free country with individual liberties.

They (and their surviving families) sacrificed much for freedom and liberty.

According to the CDC, each year approximately 600,000+ little babies are killed in the womb at the hands of doctors. It’s not talked about much and seemingly not of concern to the masses, but the fact remains - that’s an awful lot of little beating hearts

day on this earth. More than 600,000. Killed. Per year.

Every year. (Even more in previous years.)

The very same CDC reports that 48,816 people died from COVID-19 as of 5:49 p.m. April 24, 2020. I am saddened by the deaths of 48,816 from COVID-19 and feel for the loss of those who the dead have left behind. Some of the dead were old - and certainly had every right to live for as long as possible. Some were in poor health due to poor genetics and/or poor choices and/or poor habits - and certainly had every right to live for as long as possible.

There have been 48,816 deaths and fear has altered the balance between the power of the government and the power of the people in, of all places, the United States of America while 600,000 innocent deaths (annually) barely rates a conversation anymore.

Not counting some 258,000 Confederate soldiers who died in the Civil War, over 1,000,000 men and women thought so much of our freedoms and liberties that they not only risked their lives - but sacrificed their lives for the United States of America to be the land of the free and the home of the brave. 48,000 deaths have caused us to lose more freedoms and more liberties in a shorter amount of time, for a greater duration than any of us can ever remember, save perhaps for the brief period immediately after 9-11-01.

In the past month have we been as brave as our history claims us to be? Are we as free as our history has earned us to be?

The 48,000 deaths has altered, in a bad way, our freedoms and our individual liberties so much and so fast that at least a million who served must be rolling over in their graves! God help the United States of America.

Health Centers Get $1.4M in Additional Funds To Test Residents From The Desk Of

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Andy Kim (NJ-03) and Congressman Frank Pallone (NJ-06) introduced the Security After Sandy Act, a bill that would forgive debt owed to the federal government by municipalities and homeowners recovering from Superstorm Sandy. Senator Menendez will introduce a companion bill in the Senate.

“New Jersey is recovering from two crises right now; the impact of COVID-19 on our state and the lingering effects of Superstorm Sandy. It’s time we took action to help our local mayors and homeowners to give them a fighting chance to stay on their feet during these historically tough times,” said Congressman Kim. “I want to thank Chairman Pallone,

impact of the coronavirus with expanded testing, said Rep. Chris Smith (NJ-04).

“The grants will help Ocean Health Initiatives (OHI) and the Center for Health Education, Medicine and Dentistry (CHEMED) located in Lakewood - which

has the highest number of COVID-19 cases in Ocean County - expand capacity to test for COVID-19,” said Smith (NJ-04), who spoke on the floor in support of quick passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act. “Our community health centers are at ground zero across America in the battle to slow and contain COVID-19.

“I am proud to have worked several years ago to win the critical federal designation for both of these Federally

Qualified Healthcare Centers (FQHC),” Smith said.

“Congress passed CARES to get aid into the hands of health providers like these FQHCs as quickly as possible.”

Smith said the funding awarded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Grant Service Office - comes from the comprehensive, bipartisan $2 trillion stimulus to help communities devastated by the coronavirus pan-

demic, a bill which Smith strongly supported and was signed into law by President Trump March 27.

The CARES Act funding announced today provides Expanding Capacity for Coronavirus Testing (ECT) grants in the amount of $575,404 to Ocean Health Initiatives in Lakewood and $819,484 to the Lakewood Resource and Referral Center.

Since the COVID-19 outbreak, three rounds of federal funding have now delivered a total of $4,039,336

Kim, Pallone And Menendez Introduce Bill To Help Superstorm Sandy Recovery Senator Menendez and our local officials throughout Ocean County who have all come together to craft this important bill. I know together, we’ll fight to give our neighbors the relief they need.”

“Our communities and residents faced extraordinary financial strain as a result of Superstorm Sandy’s devastation. The coronavirus pandemic has only exacerbated the economic outlook for many of our communities that are still working to recover from Sandy’s destruction. The Security After Sandy Act will forgive Community Disaster Loans still owed by towns from Superstorm Sandy and provide relief for families facing ‘clawbacks’ for government aid received

during the disaster,” said C ong r e s sm a n Pa l lone.

“This fi nancial relief will go a long way to help hardworking New Jersey families who are still recovering from Sandy and to aid our municipalities who are facing budget shortfalls as they provide critical services to New Jerseyans during the pandemic.”

“As New Jerseyans and the communities they call home struggle to flatten the curve and fight this pandemic, the last thing they should have to worry about is facing federal government clawbacks from the assistance they needed to recover from a previous natural disaster like Superstorm Sandy,” said Sen. Menendez. “With expenses soaring to combat COVID-19 and revenues

drying up due to the necessary emergency shutdown orders, communities need to prioritize their limited resources to keeping their residents safe and maintaining essential services.

It’s equally unconscionable for the federal government to claw back millions in aid from Sandy survivors still struggling to rebuild their lives as unemployment skyrockets and the economy falling deeper into recession. The least the federal government can do at this trying time is to alleviate this unnecessary to burden to returning life back to normal.”

The Security After Sandy

Act provides direct relief to communities by forgiving all Community Disaster Loans (CDLs) from January 1, 2006 to January 1, 2020, which includes all Sandy loans. The CDL program supports local governments with significant tax and other major revenue losses after major disasters. While the program provided critical emergency support for many communities after Sandy, the loan recipients are being asked to pay back those loans at a time when localities are projecting extraordinarily steep revenue declines due to constricted economic activity as a result of COVID-19.

to these critical healthcare centers: $1,848,236 in emergency funding to OHI, and $2,191,100 to CHEMED. In a previous round of CARES Act funding announced in April, OHI received $1,178,900 grant, and CHEMED received $819,484. In March, funding from the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2020 provided $83,256 for OHI and $82,932 for CHEMED for treatment and prevention measures.

The bill would also help New Jersey homeowners forced to pay back aid that was disbursed in the aftermath of Sandy, by stopping any further recoupment efforts for debt owed to the federal government in relation to Sandy and other major declared disasters between 2006 and 2020. These recoupment efforts, also known as “clawbacks”, have blindsided many, because it was under the federal government’s own recommendation that many New Jersey residents applied for loans and benefits offered by various federal programs without clear guidance on repayment terms and contingencies.

Development: Continued From Page 1

A public hearing regarding these ordinances has been scheduled for the council’s May 26 meeting.

Sauickie explained the ordinances that were to be repealed were redundant from a legislative standpoint. He stressed that “whether the ordinance is there or not, the same type of procedures need to be followed.�

Those sentiments were echoed by McGuckin who gave further explanation as to why the 2017 ordinances were considered redundant.

One resident sent in a question asking the council to define what a dormitory was. The answer is that according to the 2017 ordinance, it is defined as any building, or portion of a building, that has been designed or converted to contain living quarters which are provided as residences or for overnight sleeping for individuals or groups, operated as an accessory use to a school, college, university, boarding school, convent, monastery, nonprofit educational institution, religious order or other use.

McGuckin responded to another resident’s question that anyone seeking to build a structure with a dormitory “would have to seek a variance and go before the zoning board and meet the burden of proof under the statutes.�

The council has been meeting in a livestreamed Zoom meeting format due to the COVID-19 pandemic which includes restrictions on public gatherings. That is expected to continue into next month.

A number of residents observing the meeting used their ability to comment to express their disappointment and anger over the repeal of both ordinances at a time when they cannot physically attend a council meeting. Many suggested that since the ordinances were deemed redundant, that their repeal could have been brought up at a later time when physical meetings were possible. “We want to make sure we give everyone a voice and that your voice is heard,� Township Business Administrator Terence Wall said during the May 12 session. He also spoke to

McGuckin during the meeting to get a recommendation on how to address what could be defined as inflammatory statements going into the record and what discretion Wall had as the technical moderator of the meeting.

Resident Denise Garner asked, “is this the growth machine theory where business, cultural and government needs growth control bureaucracies, for campaign contributions and influence that a developer has interest and control of the zoning process in obtaining zoning decisions?�

Sauickie responded, “we try to strike a balance between bringing smart business into town and keep traďŹƒc away from residential areas. We are pro-business because it helps keep residents’ taxes down.â€?

He added that “we want to strike a balance to that and protect the environment that is Jackson.� Sauickie pointed to the governing body’s recent passage of a soil sampling permit ordinance concerning its commitment to protecting the environment. “It passed unanimously.�

Resident Jeff Nemeth said, “you are making up the public input response as you go along.

Every question should be answered period verifying the unconstitutional way this forum is to tax paying residents.�

Wall also found himself in the position of having to verify the identity of some of those who wanted to utilize the chat function to post questions and comments, some of which were said to be inappropriate.

For example, there was one situation in which two people were logged in as basically the same name. “The challenge of this technology is that you want to be truly transparent and have a full voice for all the folks but in this instance, have a representation from one your residents that her name is used basically being spoofed,�

Wall said.

Wall added that he had filtered out questions that were not appropriate and that there were pauses to also verify if those listed were in fact residents.

Other resident complaints regarded the sound quality during portions of the meeting.

TRENTON – Gov. Phil Murphy and New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission Chief Administrator Sue Fulton announced additional extensions to driver license registrations and inspection expiration dates in their continuing efforts to mitigate COVID-19 and safeguard public health.

Effective immediately, the following documents if expired between March 13 and May 31 have been extended to July 31. Documents expiring June 30, are extended to months to Aug. 31, and those expiring July 31 are extended to Sept. 30.

All standard driver licenses including driver permits and non-standard IDs, privately owned and commercial registrations, vehicle inspections, disabled veteran placards, and temporary tags. “Extending the expirations further is the right move for our agencies are closed to the public as we work to stamp out the threat of COVID-19 together,�

Fulton said. “We continue to encourage eligible customers to renew their license and registrations online at NJMMVC.GOV. Get it done online now if you are able,�

Fulton said. “We anticipate volumes will spike once

we reopen and we reach the end of these extensions.� “Our job is to serve customers in the most efficient way possible and one way we can do that is by steering people to our expanded list of online services.,�

Fulton said.

By law Fulton has the authority to extend the expiration dates when a state of emergency has been declared. Gov. Murphy extended the state of emergency and public health emergency on May 6 as part of the state’s coordinated COVID-19 response.

On March 13, the NJMVC initially announced two months of extensions for licenses, registrations, and inspection stickers expiring in March, April, and May, deadlines now being pushed back. The NJMVC encourages customers to utilize online services which have been expanded during the COVID-19 crisis.

In most cases customers can renew a license, replace lost licenses, change an address, renew a registration, and complete registrations through the NJMVC’s online services portal.

Customers should also check NJMVC.GOV for the latest information and updates.

Man Assaults, Spits On Officers In Bizarre Series Of Events

By Chris Lundy JACKSON – Police reported that a man shopping in Dollar General became unruly, touching other people in the store, and eventually had a string of behaviors where he lied to, assaulted, and tried to get away from police.

The incident started the evening of May 18.

A man, later identified as Marquise Cadet, 26, of Lakewood, had taken his face mask off while shopping in the store. Employees said they told him to put it back on. He refused and allegedly began purposely touching other customers in the store.

Police Officers Matthew Jamison, Ryan Gladysz and Jody Benecke responded to the store. They brought him outside to talk to him. They reported that he refused to give his name, claiming he didn’t have to, and that he was from another state and didn’t have any ID on him.

The officers informed him he was being detained and needed to provide identification.

He allegedly turned around and placed his hands behind his back and told the officers to arrest him. When they tried to put handcuffs on him, he pulled away and ran. The officers chased him down and a struggle ensued.

Cadet also allegedly refused to cooperate,

DISPLACED FROM YOUR JOB?

and struggled when they tried to put him in the police vehicle. At headquarters, Cadet allegedly yelled profanities at police while threatening to assault them. He spit into Officer Jamison’s face and claimed he had COVID-19.

While placed in a holding cell, he allegedly used the mattress to cover the camera and flooded the cell with the toilet. He was then moved to another room, where he continued to curse at officers, cough on officers, and spit all over the room. “For unknown reasons, he then disrobed and took his clothes off and sat in the room naked,” police said.

During transport to the Ocean County Jail, Cadet was able to free himself from a transport belt in the patrol vehicle. Officers had to remove him from the vehicle, and he struggled with them again.

Cadet was ultimately charged with obstruction, resisting arrest, hindering apprehension, 4th degree aggravated assault (throwing bodily fluids at law enforcement officers while in performance of their duties) and 2nd degree terroristic threats (made during a state of emergency). These charges are merely accusations until proven in a court of law.

The cell block was disinfected after the incident.

Staying Strong & Connected With The Ocean County YMCA TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County YMCA in Toms River, which is now celebrating its 50th Anniversary, addresses COVID-19 health concerns by offering virtual programming and new #StayingWithUs initiative.

“At the Y, we are committed to ensuring social distancing does not become social isolation,” said Peter Rosario, President and CEO of the Ocean County YMCA. “During these unprecedented times, we have created virtual content through Zoom, YouTube and Facebook Live to continue engaging with members and promote healthy living.

You can also update your Facebook profile image with our new profile frame to let everyone know that you’re #StayingWithUs.” The Ocean County YMCA has also increased phone outreach initiatives to protect the wellbeing of its most vulnerable members. “By continuing to promote healthy living and social connectedness, we are impacting the future by ensuring continued positive outcomes for preventing things such as senior isolation,” said Rosario.

Carol, a member of the Ocean County YMCA, recently said, “You have no idea what it means to us that we can still see each other’s faces. We need to thank you so much for thinking and caring for all of us in this creative way.”

The Ocean County YMCA is offering virtual classes such as yoga, fitness classes, story time and book/crochet club. Those interested can take part in the Ocean County YMCA’s virtual programming by visiting ocymca. org or the Ocean County YMCA’s Facebook page (@OCYMCA). “We would like to ex-

tend our gratitude to the Grunin Foundation for providing us with access to Zoom accounts so that we are able to offer virtual programming to the community,” said Rosario.

The Ocean County YMCA is also creating specific content to promote physical activity, and S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) projects among youth at a time when they too are lacking their normal educational structure, physical activity and social supports. “Developing activities and exercise for children and families to share is changing outcomes and creating new ways to educate and promote fitness at home,” said Michael P. Ritacco, Board of Directors Chair of the Ocean County YMCA. The Ocean County YMCA is continuing its ongoing partnership with Fulfill (formerly the Food Bank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties), and the YMCA staff is packaging and distributing meals to those experiencing food insecurity. “The number of requests for Crisis Relief Boxes have doubled in one week,” Ritacco said. “This allows the YMCA to provide a safety net for its community’s most vulnerable populations.”

Looking to the future, the Ocean County YMCA will continue to work to advance its cause and strengthen the community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. “The Y is committed to bringing strength to our community in good times and bad,” said Rosario. “Together, we are stronger!”

The Jackson based attraction will be returning to standalone, drive-through format allowing visitors to enjoy its 1,200 exotic animals that include babbons, bears and lions, while allowing for proper social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON─ Looking for some adventure during the current COVID-19 quarantine?

Six Flags Great Adventure recently announced that it will soon open its Safari adventure as a drive-through experience.

This announcement follows New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy’s executive order permitting drive-through events implementing social distancing guidelines.

Six Flags Great Adventure’s Safari operated as a self-drive-through experience from 1974 through 2012 but in 2013, Great Adventure began offering guided truck tours of the Safari.

Returning to a standalone, drive-through format will allow guests to enjoy the Safari’s 1,200 exotic animals from the privacy and safety of their own vehicles, while allowing for proper social distancing.

The theme park is currently finalizing new safety procedures to protect guests, team members, and animals. To prevent over-

crowding, the Safari experience will require advance registration using Six Flags’ new online reservation system.

Once the opening date is confirmed, the reservation system will be activated to allow members, season pass holders, and single-day ticket holders to make reservations at sixflags.com/reserve.

All tickets must be purchased online and in advance. Sales will not be available at the gate, and guests without advance reservations will not be allowed to enter.

Per state, local, and federal guidelines regarding COVID-19, the theme park and waterpark will remain closed until further notice.

Six Flags Great Adventure & Safari and Hurrican Harbor Communications Manager Kristin Fitzgerald said that “for 58 years, Six Flags has entertained millions of families with world-class coasters, themed rides, thrilling water parks, and unique attractions.”

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE OCC To Be Virtual Through Summer

TOMS RIVER - Ocean County College is providing high quality, affordable, remote instruction in all classes during the mandated campus closure and will continue for as long as necessary, according to a statement by College President Jon H. Larson, Ph.D. All classes will be delivered remotely through August 31, 2020. Thereafter, OCC is prepared to offer in the fall semester both remote instruction and limited, select courses on campus that require laboratory experiences, including Nursing and STEM disciplines, with the approval of New Jersey’s Office of the Secretary of Higher Education.

Under the guidance of epidemiological scientists and the terms of all State and Federal executive orders, College officials are currently developing a plan to partially open the campus for in-person instruction. The reopening plan will include specific, strictly-enforced requirements for social distancing, wearing personal protective equipment, and other reasonable measures to protect our students, faculty, staff, and their families from COVID-19 infection.

We anticipate that many students, and their parents as well, will not wish to risk exposure by close contact in traditional classroom and dormitory settings and will opt for the world-class instruction for which Ocean County College has been ranked nationally as a top-ten leader. We

recommend that students and families consider either the option of limited on-campus instruction in some disciplines or, the safest option, remote instruction from OCC. As you make enrollment decisions, we urge you to consider the cost, convenience, and quality advantages of enrolling at OCC, where annual tuition, including most fees and all books, will average $5,250. Compare that to Rutgers University, where the 2020 annual tuition is estimated at $15,407, excluding books and living expenses.

We ask, “Why pay more for remote instruction?”

Why not enroll at the most well prepared, highest quality remote instruction college in New Jersey, Ocean County College.

All of OCC’s credits transfer to all in-state universities and most out-of-state universities.

After completing an Associate Degree, students are guaranteed by State law to be admitted to any public New Jersey university as a junior.

Graduates also have the option of remaining on the OCC campus to complete a Bachelor’s Degree at Kean University or transferring to one of our many partner universities, some of which allow students to complete three years at OCC and one year online. All of these options are surprisingly affordable and can make a debt-free Bachelor’s Degree a reality for OCC graduates.

Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)

Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.

The New Normal According To Dr. Izzy New Jersey is continuing to identify new cases of COVID-19 but our “curve” will continue to f latten but the virus will remain with us for at least the remainder of the year. In my opinion, the “new normal” will include a) social distancing, b) continued use of wearing a mask, c) frequent hand washing, and d) no more hugs for a while. Telepractice will become increasing popular in all medical fields, including hearing healthcare. Remote programming of hearing aids has been available for several years, but in my opinion, the majority of our patients calling our offices cannot benefit from remote programming. During this pandemic, due to the frequent use of wearing a mask, dozens have “lost” their hearing instruments or broke a receiver wire. Many other patients have a “dead” hearing aid and the only way to fix it is to send it back to the manufacturer. Remote programming would be a complete waste of time in these instances. We have continued to offer “curbside services” and/or drop off services at our Toms River office.

This concierge ser vice is cr itical during this time of uncertainty as well as the increased importance of communication with family and friends.

As our offices begin to transition to

opening again, the “new normal” will require us to scan temperatures, ask patients specif ic questions related to covid-19 symptoms, stagger appointments so there’s no more than two patients in our office at the same time and allow extra time to disinfect all areas once the patient has left.

This “new normal” will significantly limit the total number of patients we can see but it’s absolutely critical to follow these procedures at least for the remainder of the year.

For over 30 years, Garden State Hearing & Balance Center is here to help anyone who is suffering from hearing loss and/or can’t communicate with their loved ones because they’re hearing aid stopped working.

In these times of social isolation, it’s imperative that we communicate with our loved ones. We need that connection for psychosocial and cognitive support.

If you need our help, please call us at 732-818-3610. We will be re-opening very soon!

Please stay healthy, stay home, practice social distancing and I promise you there will be a bright light at the end of the tunnel.

All the Best!

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Popular Medications Are Derived From Plants

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

willow, which was (and still is) the natural pain killer hidden within the white willow tree’s bark. The active ingredient that acts as medicine is called salicin. When you use the herb, the salicin gets metabolized in your body to form salicylic acid which is even stronger.

There is another compelling story I can share with you about digoxin. This compound naturally occurs in the Foxglove plant (Digitalis purpurea). Centuries ago, people used to put these plant chemicals on the tip of their arrowheads in order to kill people.

Quinine is derived from a plant. From quinine we get hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) which may be useful for certain patients with COVID-19, depending on when it is given, and the dose. The Cinchona tree in Peru gave us quinine.

Paclitaxel (Taxol) is the most popular chemotherapy drugs for ovarian, esophageal, breast cancer, lung cancer, Kaposi sarcoma, cervical cancer, pancreatic cancer and others. It is derived from the beautiful Pacific Yew tree.

And finally, we should talk about cocaine.

This was used by the Incas 3,500 years ago to produce anesthesia. It came from the Coca plant (Erythroxylon coca) and was widely available. Hard to believe! There was a time and place before some of us were born, when natural compounds from plants were widely used in our food, beverages and pharmacies.

Older pharmacists don’t even recognize the big stores today with drive-up windows! It is so very different than those apothecaries that used Mother Earth’s original medications, not the mass-produced synthetic ones.

Most people believe that medications are synthetic substances that the FDA has approved for the clinical treatment of disorders, without realizing they were derived from a plant. Thousands of FDA-approved medications began as natural plants and flowers!

You may not realize this, but no morphing and patenting is necessary… the natural plants actually provided what humans needed for eons. Only recently have we begun to turn them into patented chemicals by altering their original form. But their original form is available as herbal medicine, and sold in health food stores nationwide. Maybe not in all cases like morphine, but certainly in thousands of examples.

The beautiful opium plant ultimately led to powerful natural analgesics (think of opium, codeine and morphine) that scientists took to a lab and chemically morphed into patentable (but more potent and addictive) synthetic “opiates” the most infamous of which is oxycodone.

But again, the raw material that was sourced originally from the Earth provided good medicine to begin with.

Another example is penicillin which was derived from a fungus growing on an agar plate which was accidentally left out on the laboratory counter. The mold was quite visible to scientists. The mold of penicillin had killed the bacteria that was growing on the agar plate. In other words, many antibiotics are fungus based, and they can kill bacteria.

Before drug companies made a bazillion dollars with aspirin, we did have white

Gov: Non-Essential Retail Can Open For Curbside

By Chris Lundy JERSEY SHORE – Due to social distancing slowing the spread of COVID-19, Gov. Phil Murphy announced that retail businesses will be able to open up again for curbside pick-up only.

“We can get small businesses up and running in a way that protects both workers and customers,” he said in his press conference on May 13.

No customers will be allowed inside stores, but shops can open for curbside pick-up, he said, effective immediately.

“We have been able to take these steps today because of the work you’ve done over the last eight weeks,” the governor said to the public.

Millions of people have heeded the rules to social distance, and that has slowed the spread of the novel coronavirus to a more manageable level. This has allowed businesses to begin to open up again, even if in a diminished capacity.

In order to get to this stage, the numbers of infected had to be driven down. “Public health creates economic health and data determines dates,” he said.

In the near future, the governor said he expects that hospitals will be able to start doing elective

surgery again.

Gatherings By Car The governor continued to clear up that gatherings of people in their vehicles is allowed as long as certain precautions are followed.

Namely, if people are parked, they have to park six feet apart. If that’s not possible, the cars have to have their windows, doors and convertible tops closed (unless there’s a medical reason).

This means that church services and drive-in movies are allowed as long as people don’t get out of their vehicles, he said.

A previous statement by State Police Col. Patrick Callahan made it seem that all drive-by graduations, sometimes called “wave parades,” were not allowed. Callahan has since explained that these are allowed, but people gathering together for graduates is not.

Construction Sites Additionally, construction can resume as long as certain safeguards are in place: Staggering work hours and breaks to prevent overcrowding Requiring face coverings Prohibiting non-essential visitors Ensuring proper sanitation

Governor Sets Guidelines For Beach Openings

By Chris Lundy JERSEY SHORE – As the shore slowly starts to re-open, beaches have remained one of the biggest question marks.

Gov. Phil Murphy has eased some restrictions in the state recently, but some are still in place.

He issued guidelines for how beaches should open. These guidelines apply to municipal beaches as well as private ones.

The guidelines seem centered around making sure that people are still socially distancing as well as possible. This includes six feet “demarcations” in certain areas.

Every beach will have admission limited so that people can still go without being right next to one another. A maximum capacity will be set.

No special events will be allowed.

While the beaches are open, other adjacent recreation will be closed, including playgrounds, rides, arcades, games, water fountains, picnic areas and water play equipment.

Sanitation regimens will also be required.

These guidelines will be publicized to make sure residents and tourists know about them, to make sure there won’t be any surprises when someone comes to a beach expecting it to be business as usual.

Several beaches, such as the municipal ones in Toms River, Berkeley, Brick and Point Pleasant Beach have already announced their localized guidelines.

“As a recipient of excellent care at All-Care, I am highly recommending them to anyone who needs physical therapy. I found the staff very knowledgeable, efficient, friendly, and caring.”

“Basketball courts will be open however no basketball games will be played,” Reina’s statement added.

That was the plan and it would have included all teams having to abide by social distancing guidelines and a limit to the number of those participating to 10 or less.

No camps, contact drills, clinics or training would be permitted. There would be no balls or equipment allowed as it would be for “strengthening and conditioning purposes” according to the mayor.

The mayor reported the plan to the governor’s office along with the plan which included that it involved a use permit per team and per field as to avoid a “free for all” situation.

Two days after the council meeting during the Governor’s daily press conference Chief Counsel Mat Platkin shot down that plan remarking that it ran contrary to Executive Order 133.

That order permits golf courses and county and state parks to be open and requires municipal parks to follow the same restrictions as county and state parks and that does not include sports.

Platkin said that this information had been communicated to Jackson and that “we will follow up if they have any questions.”

Gov. Murphy added, “sports is not okay.”

It didn’t take long for the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office to notify Mayor Reina on behalf of the state Attorney General’s Office that the outlined plan would be in non-compliance with the restrictions of the executive order.

This did not please Reina who expressed on radio stations and other news media that the governor was picking and choosing how to interpret the Executive Orders.

Reina said Murphy did the same with small businesses and other situations throughout the state.

“It’s insanity,” Reina said. He called for the governor to resign saying he was on a “power trip.”

The Mayor noted that small business owners have been hit hard by the restrictions and some were in danger of losing their homes, cars and places of operation because they could not reopen.

The Mayor said in an interview on 101.5 radio that he was mad and felt disrespected.

“You took away the one pleasure we were offering the children during a bad time for them to get out…”

Reina said that while he acknowledges that

The Jackson Times, May 23, 2020, Page 17 Murphy is the governor that “everybody is on a power trip syndrome and now you’re enjoying yours. You took it away from the kids. Now I take it personal.”

The mayor said that while no one wants to see anyone including children contract the coronavirus that the township’s plan would not involve interaction or contact while in the park. He compared it to a visit to a supermarket or a trip to Walmart.

Reina has served as mayor since 2008 and this has not been the first criticism he’s had with the governor. He also criticized Murphy for his handling of the COVID-19 crisis regarding deaths that occurred at nursing homes, which account for about half of all coronavirus deaths.

The mayor said he mourns those who died from the virus and said his job was to see to the interests of the 58,000 Jackson residents that he was elected to serve.

Reina said that Jackson and other communities use every safeguard that the state can maintain and Jackson used Murphy’s guidelines to develop the now rejected plan.

Mayor Reina also expressed anger over hearing from State Police Superintendent Col. Patrick Callahan that drive-by celebrations should not be participated in reference to the executive orders of the governor.

The superintendent did clarify that drive by activities were permitted so long as there were not gatherings that accompanied the drive by parades.

Reina also accused the governor of crossing the line in his handling of the pandemic and determining how people should live.

“The Bill of Rights is above your pay grade.

Resign.”

Gov. Murphy responded that he never meant that the state was above the Bill of Rights, but that what was being done was to save lives and that the state would continue to that while respecting the Constitution.

Reina has vowed to contact the U.S. Attorney General William Barr, who has stated would investigate states use of executive orders during the current health crisis, to let President Donald Trump know what is happening in the Garden State.

The mayor also noted that the governor’s executive orders have resulted in the cancellation of Memorial Day parades, fireworks and Independence Day activities.

Reina has stated that despite the objections, the township’s plan to allow youth teams to use Jackson parks by Memorial Day weekend would be moving ahead and that any organized team who wishes to participate in the guidelines set forth by Gov. Murphy to enter a township park or recreational area would be welcome to do so.

Cash Collections Resume On Turnpike & Parkway NEW JERSEY – Cash collections have resumed on the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway. They were suspended on March 24 due to COVID-19.

Toll collectors have returned to the booths with personal protective equipment. They will be wearing gloves, face masks and plastic face shields. Drivers who intend to

pay with cash are encouraged to wear face masks as they travel through the toll lanes.

The coin lanes on Parkway entry and exit ramps have also reopened. Drivers who have traveled on the Turnpike or Parkway since cash collections were suspended are reminded to pay the amount due by the date listed on their toll-by-mail invoices to avoid being charged an administrative fee.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law Commercial Rent Payments And The Coronavirus

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By: Marc S. Galella, Esq., and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates Many commercial tenants are asking whether they are excused from making rent payments if the tenant’s business has been impacted or shut down by as a result of the coronavirus. In particular, they are asking whether a force majeure clause often found in commercial leases, excuses the tenant from having to pay rent. A force majeure clause in commercial leases generally relieve the performance of a party because of an unforeseeable circumstance beyond the control of the parties to the lease which causes a party not to be able to perform under the lease. The term “force majeu re” usu ally mea ns a n event that could not have been reasonably anticipated, or which, if anticipated, could not be controlled. Force majeure clauses are added to leases to excuse a party’s performance under the lease in cases of natural disasters or “acts of God,” such as hurricanes, f loods, earthquakes, etc.

The answer to this question depends on the terms of the commercial lease.

Does the lease contain a force majeure clause? If so, does the clause specifically address the issue as to the payment of rent. In many, if not most, force majeure clauses the obligation to pay rent is not forgiven in the case of an event that is beyond the control of the parties. Thus, the commercial lease must be reviewed to see whether it contains a force majeure clause and what is excused or not excused under that clause.

New Jersey courts h a v e t r a d i t i o n a l l y Marc S. Galella Esq. been very reluctant to allow force majeure clauses to excuse the perfor mance of one party to a commercial lease and especially to excuse the payment of rent under the lease. Courts look to see whether the event should have been anticipated by the parties and addressed in the lease. Not all unforeseen events are subject to the force majeure clause.

The lease would need to be reviewed as to whether the shutdown of a business by the government is an event that is covered by the force majeure clause.

In addition, the coronavirus may not be considered an “act of God” if a court determines if it should have been foreseen in the drafting of the lease.

As you can see, there is no definite answer to the question of whether a force majeure clause excuse the non-payment of rent by a tenant. Tenants and landlords should consult with their attorneys to review their commercial leases and determine whether the lease contains a force majeure clause and, if so, whether the force majeure excuses the payment of rent by the tenant. If the payment of rent is excused, what are the terms for the non-payment of rent?

Please note that the discussion above pertains only to commercial leases.

Force majeure clauses are not typically found in residential leases.

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE County Officials Urge Residents To Remember Veterans On Memorial Day

By Bob Vosseller TOMS RIVER – There will be no parades, no solemn ceremonies with flags at half-staff or the playing of Taps in the background during Memorial Day programs this year.

Like everything else this spring, Memorial Day will be a casualty of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic but regardless of the lack of public gatherings, the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders are urging residents to remember the nation’s fallen veterans on Memorial Day. Freeholder Gerry P. Little, who serves as liaison to the Veterans Service Bureau in the county said, “the long Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of the summer season, but it is also a time to honor the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the defense of our freedoms.”

Memorial Day is typically celebrated throughout the county with gatherings at local parks, where uniformed veterans from local posts join elected officials and residents in memorializing the county’s honored dead.

“While we cannot gather together, each of us can reflect on our veterans and honor them in our own way. Ocean County never forgets its veterans and has held numerous ceremonies honoring those who fought from the Civil War through the ongoing War on Terror,” Little added.

Little said, “we are thankful for their sacrifices. We pray for them and their families as we pray for all of our men and women in harm’s way. And we know, that thanks to their bravery, America will remain a shining beacon of freedom and liberty.”

Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari asked residents to also remember the men and women now serving on the frontlines. “As we enjoy the warm weather and time with our families, let’s take a moment and think of those Americans serving in uniform today.”

Vicari said. “they are the heroes from our local towns, volunteering to protect our homes and our loved ones.”

Memorial Day was first held following the Civil War, to honor those who perished in America’s bloodiest conflict. After World War I, the day was changed in tribute to all of the nation’s fallen heroes.

In the century since World War I, more than 626,000 Americans have lost their lives fighting America’s wars. More than 82,000 Americans also remain unaccounted for or missing in action from those conflicts.

“While we cannot gather together, each of us can reflect on our veterans and honor them in our own way,” said Little, who is liaison to the Ocean County Veterans Service Bureau.

Little said Ocean County “never forgets” its veterans and has held numerous ceremonies honoring those who fought from the Civil War through the ongoing War on Terror.

“We are thankful for their sacrifices. We pray for them and their families as we pray for all of our men and women in harm’s way.

And we know, that thanks to their bravery, America will remain a shining beacon of freedom and liberty,” Little said.

Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari asked residents to also remember the men and women now serving on the frontlines.

“As we enjoy the warm weather and time with our families, let’s take a moment and think of those Americans serving in uniform today,” Vicari said. “They are the heroes from our local towns, volunteering to protect our homes and our loved ones.”

BUSINESS PROFILE DeGRAFF FUNERAL HOME Compassionate • Respectful • Flexible

DeGraff Lakehurst Funeral Home, Inc. 119 Union Avenue, Lakehurst, N.J. 08733 732-657-7868 Sherry T. DeGraff, Mgr. N.J. No. 3921 degrafffuneralhome@msn.com

DeGraff Lakehurst Funeral Home is family owned and operated. Founded

by Donald & Wanda DeGraff in 1979 in historic downtown Lakehurst. The building itself has a funeral history dating back to the early 1900’s. “Our father was the type of person who was so very compassionate and caring,” said Sherry DeGraff, Manager. “He was an entrepreneur, involved in a number of businesses, but his love was always for the funeral industry.”

DeGraff’s mother Wanda is still alive and “still our boss, even if she won’t admit it,” said DeGraff, and her father, Donald passed away in 2004.

Growing up with the funeral business surrounding her, DeGraff said she learned from an early age how to treat customers in their time of need. “You handle people in the same way you would want your own family handled, “said DeGraff. “You have to be a good listener, have a lot of compassion and be very flexible.

While the core values – compassion, respect and flexibility – have not changed for the DeGraff family, the trends in the funeral business have.

Years back, cremations were rare and some religious affiliations did not hold them in high favor. In 1990 the DeGraff family saw the future trends were leaning toward cremation, as a result, their daughter Sherry opened DeGraff Cremation Service offering a wide variety of cremation service options. The move towards more cremation represents the largest shift in the funeral industry. In fact, many consumers believe the cremation

itself is performed at the individual funeral home or cremation service they hired. This is not correct.

Crematories are owned by cemeteries. Most people are surprised when they hear that. Many people are unaware that cremation must be authorized by a spouse or blood kin under New Jersey State Law. This can cause undue stress for people who do not have a spouse or family.

In 2004, New Jersey law provides for the des- DeGraff Lakehurst Funeral Home has been family-owned and operated at 119 Union Avenue, ignation of an individual Lakehurst since 1979.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of may 23 - may 29

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your week ahead could include a profusion of confusion.

Be alert to potential hackers or phishing scams, and don’t click on email links or give out personal information. Reassure any loved ones who have doubts.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Apologize if you make a mistake or commit some slip-up.

If you and loved ones can agree to disagree, your week to come will run more smoothly. Don’t go on a spending spree thinking it will solve a problem.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Someone may tell you only what you want to hear. Check the facts twice before embarking on new enterprises in the upcoming week. Someone who is demanding or is dealing with an emotional issue could drain your energy.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You or a family member could be subject to online tricks, misleading offers or false advertising. Change your passwords and update your security applications so that you can rest easy in the week ahead.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You might not recognize which people have your best interests at heart.

Any skepticism may prevent you from making an advantageous choice. As this week unfolds, focus on being responsible as well as reasonable.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Get it while you can. If you ask for forgiveness or assistance, your wish might be fulfilled. Don’t be surprised if you find hidden strings attached to a purchase or investment in the week ahead that changes your mind.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Your social life could be at a low point. If you become bored or restless, your imagination might go into overdrive.

Wishful thinking could cause you to be misled by someone in the week ahead, so be alert for tricks.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Rein in any roving desire for romance. Keep your money in your pocket and your mind sharp. In the week to come, make decisions based on facts and don’t rely on others to guide your hand.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll run fewer risks if your cash and credit card remain safely tucked away in your wallet. Avoid making an issue of someone’s hedging during the week ahead to preserve the tranquility of a valued relationship.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are probably feeling good about yourself and welcome some new activities as this week begins to unfold, but remain aware of your fiscal and social responsibilities. Take advantage of a chance for fun that costs little.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You may see evidence of your need to work harder as this week unfolds. It might be pointed out that you have not always made the most of your time. Put a hold on major expenditures until you are more comfortable.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Out of sight, out of mind. This is a good week to maintain a low profile and steer clear of misunderstandings. Your intuition could be less accurate than usual in the upcoming week, and you may want to be out of the loop in social situations.
