Harvey student named one of five Bank of America Student Leaders in Chicago Harvey resident and Thornton Township High School graduate Margaret Gonzalez has been recognized as a 2024 Bank of America Student Leader.

Margaret is deeply committed to multiple community service initiatives that created significant impact in her community.

Throughout her time in high school, Margaret was an active volunteer with Feed My Starving Child, Restoration Ministries, Dolton Back to School Fest, Shirley Drewenski Christmas Celebration, and more. She served as the student board president for Hands Across Harvey, a local rally dedicated to drawing awareness to an uptick in violence in the South Suburbs. In this role, Margaret leveraged her dual-language skills to plan the event, which drew thousands of participants, communicating with government officials and ensuring the event was successful in bridging communication gaps and encouraging inclusivity.

Margaret also held a significant leadership position during her time at Thornton Township, serving as the President of the Student Board of Education in District 205. This role, which she secured through an election among her peers, earned her the responsibility of both representing her peers and those across the district. Serving in this capacity has enabled her to create positive change in her community and ensure student voices are heard and amplified in multiple venues across the South Suburbs.

In recent months, Margaret has turned her attention toward food security, where she is leveraging resources in her International Baccalaureate program to address the lack of grocery stores in nearby communities, widely recognized as some of the nation’s starkest food deserts. She is actively confronting the issue by conducting quantitative studies to identify the best options for store

Real Estate Questions & Answers CATHY & JIM HIGGINS Question: I have been thinking about selling real estate. Do you love selling homes?

Answer: We love our job. It is a hard job, because there is no pay unless you sell a home. But as we drive around our neighborhood during the holidays and see the children playing, smell the aroma of an American barbeque and hear the sounds of summer, we are even prouder of what we do because we helped someone find their dream home here!

As we approach our nation’s birthday, here is something we thought we would share.

Beautiful lyrics from a classic American country song.

I’ve traveled all around this country.

In my time I thought I’d seen it all.

But today I took a detour down a back road, Through a little town whose name I can’t recall.

There were old men on benches playing checkers.

Children playing hopscotch on the square.

And high above a statue of an unknown soldier, Old glory was waving in the air.

Suddenly I realized what I’d too long forgotten.

Chill rose up like mountains on my skin.

Overcome with a feeling, I knew I was seeing, America all over again I knew the stop would throw me off my schedule, But I parked around behind the Five and Dime.

There’s something about a small town in the Summer, Like a Norman Rockwell picture back in time.

Kids were courting at the Rexall soda fountain, Like we did before they built the shopping mall.

I saw so many reasons why I love this country, You know some things never really change at all.

As I left the two-lane road, And pulled back on that super high way.

I thought of what I’d seen back in that town.

And it hit me like a freight train, That a stone’s throw from the fast lane, America is still safe and sound.

Talk to your family about wealth transfer SUBMITTED BY PATRICK ZAMKIN Are you anticipating an inheritance someday? If so, you may want to discuss it with your parents or other family members who may be leaving you the assets — because early, open communication will benefit everyone involved.

However, many people are reluctant to have these conversations. More than a third of Americans do not plan on discussing a transfer of wealth with their families, according to a recent study by Edward Jones in partnership with NEXT 360 Partners and Morning Consult. And the same study found that only about a quarter of Americans have actually discussed generational wealth transfer with their families.

Perhaps this low level of communication is not surprising — clearly, talking about wealth transfer and estate plans can be emotional. But having these discussions is important, for several reasons: • Strengthening family bonds – Generational wealth transfer shouldn’t be seen simply as a transactional event. By discussing your parents’ plans and wishes, and your own expectations, you can build a sense of unity and shared purpose. And you can develop a common philosophy about how your family’s legacy goals will be carried forward through the succeeding generations.

• Avoiding unpleasant surprises – If you or other family members are expecting a certain inheritance and things turn out differently, disappointment and bad feelings may occur. But this can be avoided by having a discussion beforehand that clearly outlines your parents’ intentions. You still may not agree with them, but at least you’ll know what to expect — and you won’t make the mistake of acting in advance on any assumptions about what you’ll inherit.

• Developing appropriate strategies – Passing on wealth to a new generation as part of an overall estate plan can be more complex than you might think. Are your parents using tax-smart strategies? Would they benefit from establishing a living trust? Are the beneficiary designations on their retirement accounts and life insurance policies accurate

and up to date? If you suspect your parents may not have properly addressed these issues, you may want to bring up the benefits of working with an estate-planning attorney and a tax advisor.

• Protecting against incapacitation – Many people go through their senior years with few, if any, physical or mental impairments.

But there are no guarantees. If one or both of your parents were to become incapacitated and unable to handle their financial affairs, it could cause serious problems with their wealth transfer and estate-planning goals.

But if you can discuss your parents’ plans with them while they are healthy and alert, you can encourage them to take the proper steps, such as reviewing outdated estateplanning documents and designating you or another family member as power of attorney to make health care and financial decisions on their behalf should they become incapacitated.

While the benefits of having wealthtransfer and estate-planning discussions are clear, starting the conversations can be tricky. You need to show that you want to initiate these talks because you’re concerned that proper plans need to be in place and understood by everyone involved. If you have a good relationship with your parents, you should be able to start these conversations, but you’ll still need to be sensitive when bringing up the subject.

One final word: Estate plans can take some time to develop — so, the sooner you have these discussions, the better.

Edward Jones, its employees and financial advisors are not estate planners and cannot provide tax or legal advice. You should consult your estate-planning attorney or qualified tax advisor regarding your situation.

RICHARD ZEKVELD Happy Fourth of July.

Today, I thank God for the USA. I thank God for the ideals of God-given human dignity, rights, and freedoms, articulated in our founding documents. I thank God for how those ideals have borne fruit in our nation’s history. I thank God for those throughout our nation’s history that have held our nation accountable to those ideals, particularly when we do not live up to those ideals or apply them consistently to all people. I thank God for those who have laid their lives on the line and even given their lives defending our rights and freedoms.

I also thank God that, as a U.S. citizen, I am primarily a citizen of the Kingdom of God, as one redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus and, through faith, brought under his rule. I share this citizenship with millions of people from every tongue, tribe, and nation around the globe, who also happen to be citizens of many different countries.

King Jesus calls us to be faithful citizens – in fact, the best citizens – of our earthly country for the God’s glory and the good of others. When Jeremiah prophesied God’s messages to God’s people, they were scattered throughout the Babylonian empire, in different cities and territories. In Jeremiah 29:7, God says to his people, “Seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.”

Tomorrow, July 4, is an opportunity to “seek the welfare” of South Holland and our country at our annual “Prayer at the Gates” prayer time. Come to any Village of South Holland entrance from 8:00-8:30 am to offer up prepared prayers for our village and nation.

Speaking Of Seniors

HAVE A SAFE SPECTACULAR 4TH OF JULY

by Janice R Newman This July 4th marks the 248th anniversary of the United States of America’s independence from Britain. It’s a day filled with family gatherings, barbecues, picnics, family reunions, and outdoor neighborhood festivals that end with the sky filled with spectacular fireworks displays. As we enjoy an exciting time with family and friends, it’s a pleasure to have fun celebrations, but also to have a safe celebration.

Community fireworks displays are the safest way to celebrate, enjoy the sky show, and stay safe. Consumer Fireworks are illegal in Illinois and come with penalties of large fines.

Numerous signage around the suburbs warns of fines for violations and the dangers of fireworks use. Dangers can happen from fires and bodily injuries. Last year around 3 am, an uncontrolled fire started in my neighbor’s garbage cans and spread to their fence, along with the unused discarded fireworks being ejected from the debris hitting their neighbor’s house. The fire department had to extinguish the fire.

Thankfully no one was hurt, and the damage was not extensive. However, even sparklers and non-consumer fireworks can ignite a fire if not discarded properly. Supervising children with sparklers, following instructions, and keeping a bucket of water or garden hose nearby in case of fire or malfunction is a good way to stay safe.

Drink responsibly and know your limits.

Overindulgence can lead to impaired judgment and risky behavior. Eat before and while drinking, pace yourself, choose non-alcoholic options, and don’t overdrink. Designate a sober driver or use alternative ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft. Plan and order your ride in advance. Public transportation may potentially be available depending on the time. Or consider staying overnight with family and friends after the celebration. This way the celebration can continue the next day. If you’ve been drinking

any amount, don’t risk driving. It’s not worth the risk, stay safe.

Food safety is important while cooking and serving over the holiday. When we’re so busy enjoying ourselves, we overlook food safety which create foodborne illness from food being left out for hours. To enjoy your meals without worry keep perishable foods such as meats, salads, and dairy products refrigerated, in a cooler with plenty of ice or ice packs, and out of the sun. Food can go bad within one hour in hot weather being left out. Cook food thoroughly with the appropriate internal temperature to kill harmful bacteria. Use a thermometer. Wash hands, along with cleaning and sanitizing all areas in contact with food.

Taking extra steps with food safety can protect everyone.

Lastly, prepare for emergencies by having a first aid kit nearby for minor injuries or emergencies, and extra water bottles for hydration. Keep a water hose nearby in case of fire from grilling. Keep pets on leashes to ensure they don’t get out of the yard or stray into the street. Pets can also create tripping hazards or react with anxiety from the fireworks noise.

Keep your pets safe by placing them in a crate or safe inside.

Celebrating the Fourth of July is a tradition filled with joy, family, and activities. Prepare for the event with safety in mind. Observe fireworks displays responsibly, practice food safety, stay hydrated, avoid drinking and driving, keep pets safe, along with protecting yourself and loved ones from injuries while enjoying and celebrating a spectacular beautiful day.

The Bill Was Correct!

WOODROW WILCOX On June 27, 2024, I got a letter from a client in the north side of Hammond, Indiana. I checked the bill and responded that day. With some editing to protect her privacy, here is the letter that I sent to the client.

You sent to me a bill from an ambulance company to check for you. The date of service was 05/23/2024 and the bill total was $65. It was seven miles at $5 per mile for a total of $35 plus a general charge of $30.

You wrote notes to me to complain about this bill. One note said, “HELP! My insurance always paid in the past!” Another note said, “Dear Senior Care: I took the hospital ambulance home. But always in the past, ambulance bill was paid. I mailed this form back to the ambulance company with my insurance policy number. But then, I got this second bill!”

I phoned your insurance company to check on this despite the fact that I had a good idea about the results. The ambulance company never filed the claim with Medicare and your insurance company never got a claim from Medicare or the ambulance company. Here is why.

Medicare never pays for MEDICAR services. Apparently, you were well enough that you did not require the use of an ambulance. You were well enough that you only needed a MEDICAR – a non-emergency and non-life support ride to get you from the hospital to your home. Medicare never pays for such non-emergency services.

For years, in my articles, I have chastised both hospitals and ambulance companies

for charging senior patients for taking them home with ambulance services instead of MEDICAR services. If the drive to your home had been billed at the ambulance rate, it would have cost over $1000 unless we fought it to get the MEDICAR rate of only $65. I suggest that you thank your lucky stars that you got the smaller bill. Because Medicare will not pay on this bill. Neither will your insurance company because you bought a “Medicare supplement” policy. That pays only when Medicare approves the claim.

It looks like my past articles about hospitals and ambulance companies recklessly over charging seniors for ambulance services when only MEDICAR services were needed finally succeeded in the case of one senior – YOU. The help that I gave this client was FREE OF CHARGE. When one of our senior citizen clients does not understand a bill, we take time to review and explain it without charging the client anything. If your insurance agent or agency does not give this high level of customer service, why not switch to one that does – like our agency.

Note: Woodrow Wilcox is the senior medical bill case worker at Senior Care Insurance Services in Merrillville, Indiana.

He has saved clients of that firm over three million dollars by fighting mistakes and fraud in the Medicare system. Also, Wilcox wrote the book SOLVING MEDICARE PROBLEM$ which is available through book stores or online.

CELEBRATE THE FORTH RESPONSIBLY!

Illinois apple orchard succeeds over insect, weather challenges Two wagonloads of specialty growers were guided through rows of apples at Jonamac Orchard and learned how this year’s crop was saved from frost damage.

The U-pick orchard, part of a 105-acre family-owned farm in DeKalb County, consists of more than 20,000 trees growing more than 30 varieties of apples.

Spychal and McArtor family members shared some apple-growing challenges and triumphs June 6 at the Summer Horticulture Field Day organized by the Illinois State Horticultural Society.

When temperatures at the DeKalb County farm drop to 29 degrees for an hour, the orchard can lose 10% of the apple crop, said Mike Spychal, one of Jonamac’s owners.

And if the temperature falls to 25 degrees, crop loss can grow to 90%.

Raising the temperature by 4 degrees matters. “It’s the difference between having a season or not,” Spychal said.

The orchard invested in two frost machines — basically a helicopter blade on a tall tower — and used them twice this year.

Each cost $40,000.

But saving the crop required more than machines alone; manual labor was also needed.

Workers place barrels with wood from pruning trees among the rows of apple trees that create heat for the frost machines to distribute. The team must light 180 fires throughout the orchard, often about midnight.

And frost isn’t the only challenge for the orchard.

Jenna Spychal, Mike’s wife, and the granddaughter of founders Jerry and Mary Lynn McArtor, is leading the orchard’s fight against codling moths, whose larvae can tunnel fruit and produce “wormy” apples.

“It’s the first time we tried mating disruption,” she said. She demonstrated how she puts the disrupter on the trees with a long pole, tree by tree.

The Jonamac team also uses a trap system. By monitoring the traps, they also know when the threshold has been reached to spray, said Kaci Athey, University of Illinois entomologist and assistant professor.

While the family could control frost damage, trees in one part of the orchard showed signs of winter damage, several to the point of dying.

Mohammad Babadoost, a plant pathologist and U of I professor, said he has seen more winter damage problems in central and northern Illinois in the past several years.

When the tree’s vascular system suffers from winter damage, the tree is more susceptible to fungi, he said.

“It’s beyond a pathology problem. We need more research on why this is happening,” Babadoost said. “It’s complex.”

Mike Spychal said the dead and dying trees will be removed and drainage improved in that area before replanting.

Babadoost praised the management of Jonamac Orchard.

“This is one of the cleanest orchards, disease-wise, in Illinois,” the pathologist said.

This story was distributed through a cooperative project between Illinois Farm Bureau and the Illinois Press Association.

Giannoulias Awards State Grants to Combat Carjackings, Car Thefts Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias announced today more than $11 million in new grants to assist law enforcement agencies throughout the state in protecting against the surge in carjackings and vehicle thefts.

The Illinois Vehicle Hijacking and Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention and Insurance Verification Council, which Giannoulias’ office oversees, distributed grants to six law enforcement agencies that can start using the funds July 1. To fund the grants, the insurance industry provides $1 for every passenger vehicle it insures to the Secretary of State’s Office.

“These grants are a matter of public safety and provide our law enforcement agencies with the personnel, tools and tech resources they need to help safeguard residents from the rise of violent carjackings and car thefts,” Giannoulias said. “For many of us, our vehicle serves as a lifeline. We depend on it for work, running errands, shuttling our kids around to practices and camps and visiting loved ones. To have it stolen can have terrible consequences for families and upend their lives. This taskforce plays a critical role by ensuring local, state, and federal law enforcement officers must work together to address these crimes.”

“To stop crime you have to solve crime – and to solve crime you have to have resources,” said Illinois State Police Director Brendan F. Kelly. “This grant funding will allow the Illinois State Police to focus additional resources on catching those committing vehicle thefts, hijackings and other related violent crimes.”

“The Illinois Statewide Auto Theft Task Force (ISATT) would like to thank Secretary Giannoulias for his unwavering support in the fight against vehicular hijacking, catalytic converter theft, and vehicle theft,” said Illinois Secretary of State Police Lieutenant and Director of ISATT Adam Broshous. “His support has aided in the recovery of thousands of stolen vehicles and the prevented theft of untold thousands more. As vehicle crimes are often associated with violent crimes, these grants are making an impact on keeping our communities safer.”

“The Chicago Police Department is grateful for the generous grant provided by Secretary Giannoulias through the Vehicle Hijacking and Motor Vehicle Theft and Insurance Verification Council,” said Chicago Police Department Deputy Chief of Detectives Kevin Bruno. “The funds will be instrumental in advancing our auto theft and vehicle hijacking efforts, which focus on theft prevention, stolen vehicle recovery and the prosecution of offenders.”

“The Tri-County Auto Theft Task Force would like to thank the Illinois Secretary of State and the Illinois Vehicle Hijacking and Motor Vehicle Theft and Insurance Verification Council for their continued support,” said Tri-County Auto Theft Task Force Director Zach Johnston. “With their funding we are able to continue our mission in combating auto theft related crimes. ” Law enforcement agencies can use the awards for salaries and benefits for personnel assigned to vehicle theft prevention units,

vehicles, computers, vehicle tracking devices, GPS data, evidence kits, body cameras and drones for aerial vehicle searches.

The grant funding enabled law enforcement agencies to expand access to dedicated vehicle theft investigators and prosecutors at their local state’s attorney office. Law enforcement can use the money to hire dedicated auditors to verify scrap shops and body shops are not using stolen parts or metal.

The additional funding has also enabled law enforcement agencies to work collaboratively with federal and local units to address instances of title fraud and investigate cases of fraudulent vehicle identification numbers (VIN) before vehicles can be resold or recover vehicles fraudulently sold.

Grant funding has also been used to expand operations to address cargo theft, where vehicles such as semitrucks are stolen for their goods. One task force recovered a stolen trailer containing medical supplies.

The Council’s prevention efforts have more than halved annual theft rates since 1991 from more than 75,000 stolen vehicles to less than 30,000 in 2021. While crime rates have surged in recent years due to economic disruption caused by the pandemic, the rates are still nowhere near what they were when the Council was created.

In 2022, the most recent vehicle theft data, there were 38,649 thefts statewide, an increase of more than 10,000 cases compared to the year prior. More than 22,000 of the thefts occurred in Chicago that year, where thefts doubled compared to 2021.

Videos demonstrating how to steal certain car models have gained popularity in recent years, making it easier for those trying to steal a vehicle, the Council’s 2023 report found.

Tri-County Auto Theft Task Force (TCAT), City of Joliet $2,269,500 Illinois Statewide Auto Theft Task Force (ISATT)* $3,376,815 Chicago Major Auto Theft Investigations Unit (CMATI), Chicago Police Department* $1,407,963 Metro East Auto Theft Task Force (MEATTF), St. Clair County Sheriff’s Department $2,438,954 Greater Peoria Auto Crimes Task Force (GPACT), Peoria Police Department $1,501,100 Expressway Safety Enforcement Group (ESEG), Illinois State Police $676,978 Total $11,671,310 *Issued as one grant.

From 2019 to 2022, the Council issued $24 million in grants and recovered $92 million worth of stolen vehicles, meaning the return on investment for stolen vehicle recovery is $4 for every $1 spent on grant funding.

The 11 members of the Council are dedicated to finding the best strategies to prevent carjackings, vehicle theft and recyclable metal theft.

Steel Caucus Voices Concerns of Potential Trade Status Change for Vietnam Washington, DC – 37 Bipartisan Members of the Congressional Steel Caucus, led by Vice Chairman Frank J. Mrvan and Chairman Rick Crawford (AR-01, sent a letter to the Secretary of Commerce, Gina Raimondo, expressing concern about the department’s reconsideration of Vietnam’s non-market economy (NME) status in U.S. antidumping proceedings.

As the letter points out, Vietnam remains a top-down, government-controlled economy. The country practices steel dumping by flooding the U.S. with heavily subsidized steel in violation of international trade standards, which harms domestic production. Vietnam is also known to be a platform for Chinese steel to circumvent U.S. trade remedy orders. This malicious behavior should not be rewarded by a beneficial change of status.

In October, the Department of Commerce announced that it would begin reviewing Vietnam’s NME status. This announcement came shortly after Vietnam filed an official request to be considered a market economy. Commerce has 270 days to complete the review, which should occur in mid-July.

The letter is supported by the following groups: United Steel Workers (USW), Committee on Pipe and Tube Imports (CPTI), Steel Manufacturers Association (SMA), American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI), Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA),

Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM), and the Steel Tank Institute/Steel Plate Fabricators Association (STI/SPFA).

Vice Chairman Mrvan stated, “The livelihoods of steelworkers and their families are dependent upon the full and fair enforcement of our U.S. trade laws, and we must do all we can to hold bad actors around the world accountable for unfair trade practices. As Vice Chairman of the Congressional Steel Caucus, I look forward to continuing to partner with all my colleagues to ensure that workers in steel-producing communities throughout our nation can compete on a level playing field.”

Chairman Crawford stated, “Vietnam has been injuring the American steel industry for years through unfair trade practices.

Our government has a duty to protect American businesses and workers, and the Department of Commerce must reject Vietnam’s request. To grant Vietnam market economy status would be rewarding bad behavior and is a thumb in the eye to American steel.”

Philip K. Bell, President of the Steel Manufacturers Association, stated, “The SMA applauds the Congressional Steel Caucus for highlighting the devastating effect that granting Vietnam market economy status would have on American workers and American steel production. America’s industrial might relies on fair trade. If countries such as Vietnam, which has turned into
