City handles 12 water main breaks early Friday morning Reportedly caused by draining of north water tower for inspection

By Dee Longfellow

FOR THE ELMHURST INDEPENDENT

According to a release issued by the City of Elmhurst, a water main broke on Friday, June 17 at 12:30 a.m., which apparently led to 11 more breaks throughout the northern part of the City, affecting some 200 residents and business customers in the vicinity. The breaks reportedly happened after crews took the water tower at Armitage and Walnut out of

service for inspection.

The water tower at Armitage and Walnut near Berens Park was scheduled to be painted, the City said. In order to complete the project, the water needed to be drained from the tower so it could be inspected internally before bids could be requested for the painting.

The first water main break reportedly took place on Larch Avenue.

The city’s automated pumping system saw the break as high water flow, so it turned other pumps on, which increased pressure in the water system and caused 11 more water main breaks around the northern part of Elmhurst. City staff respond-

ed and manually regulated the water system pressure.

The City hand-delivered red notices to homes and properties where water would be turned off. It was determined that a city-wide boil order was not required.

By 12:30 p.m. on Friday, just 12 hours later, four of the water main

break repairs had been completed.

Three city crews as well as contractors continued to work on the remaining breaks for the rest of the day. All systems were reportedly working by Friday evening.

This means keys, bags, purses, wallets, etc. placed on the front passenger seat or in the back in full view. Even if they contain no valuables, seeing items like that may encourage a thief to take a chance that they do.

• A victim in the 300 block of N. Elm Ave. went to the police station to report that someone had entered her unlocked vehicle sometime overnight between the above dates and removed an unspecified amount of cash from the center console. The victim’s husband thought his un-

Three 2016 graduates of York High School have been named recipients of the Mary K. Steffens Foundation’s Distinguished Service Award (DSA).

Jacob Evans, Lucie Gleason and Joshua Hovance were cited for their exceptional academic, service and leadership records, but in particular for their volunteer work in the fight against cancer. The Foundation is an Elmhurst-based organization whose work supports cancer research and cancer survivors and their caregiv-

ers.

Each award recipient receives a college scholarship of $2000, renewable for an additional $1000 in their second year of study. All three had real life experiences that motivated them to volunteer their time promoting cancer awareness and fundraising. Each was primarily involved with the York All Youth Relay Committee supporting the American Cancer Society’s annual Elmhurst Relay for Life and other YAY events.

Jacob Evans was motivated to volunteer in the fight against cancer when his best friend’s mother died of the disease. He has been active on the York All Youth Relay Committee for four years and co-founded The All Night Fighters Relay for

Correction

There is an error in the article on page 1 of today’s Independent about the water main breaks that took place last Friday, June 17. The story says the water tower was drained, but it was NOT drained, it was taken off line. This information was explained

The three were acknowledged during the American Cancer Society’s Elmhurst Relay for Life, which took place on Friday, June 16 at Berens Park.

Since the establishment of these awards in 2009, the Foundation has provided $55,000 in scholarship money to deserving students.

Advocates for performing arts center plan first fundraiser Event at Flight 112 to include Grand Prize raffle for Bears tickets

The Elmhurst Centre for Performing Arts, a new initiative to build a multi-stage venue in downtown Elmhurst, announces its first social and fundraising event—a summer Patio Party and Open House, to be held at Flight 112 Wine Bar & Restaurant.

On Wednesday, July 13, friends, supporters, and performing arts enthusiasts are invited to join ECPA anytime between 5 pm and 8 pm, where architectural renderings of the new arts building will be unveiled.

“While the facility is still in its planning stages,” said Jeff Budgell, ECPA Board President. “We hope that the artistic renderings and detailed blueprints will inspire the El-

mhurst community. Once everyone sees what’s possible, we’re confident residents, the business community, and city leadership will get behind the project.”

With food plus a wine & beer tasting, a highlight of the evening will be ECPA’s first fundraising raffle – with a Grand Prize of four Club level tickets to see the Chicago Bears in the fall. The tickets, donated by Elmhurst business owners Doug and Cindy Peterson, include parking and have a total value of $1200.

Other prizes include tickets to the Elmhurst Symphony Orchestra, Drury Lane Theatre, Chicago’s Stage 773 (in the Belmont theater district), and many more. The raffle

city,” said ECPA Board member Laura Michaud. “We are thrilled to partner with Flight 112, whose generous support will make the Patio Picnic a fundraising success.”

The popular downtown venue will host the party on its outdoor patio, flowing into the indoor spaces where architectural designs will be available for viewing. There will also be live music provided by local performers.

ECPA was recently granted funding for a feasibility and financial impact study by the Arts & Business Council of Chicago and is now taking giant steps toward achieving its goals.

“It’s amazing how quickly every-

thing is coming together,” Michaud said. “We have experienced nothing but support and encouragement from the community, local businesses, and city leaders. All are signs that the time is now for the performing arts in Elmhurst. The picture couldn’t be brighter.”

A portion of the proceeds supports ECPA. Grand Prize Raffle Tickets are available online for $10 per ticket or six for $50. All raffle tickets are eligible to win all prizes.

Independent’s My Teacher Is Best essay contest concludes Winners from Sandburg, ICGS; Honorable Mention for ‘loquacious’

By Dee Longfellow FOR THE ELMHURST INDEPENDENT

This year, two winners -- one in Middle School, one in Elementary -- have been selected from those who submitted an essay for the Elmhurst Independent’s annual “My Teacher Is The Best” essay contest. One student was given Honorable Mention.

First Place – Middle School Kaylee Schaner It’s a difficult decision every year, as many essays are good, but the one that stood above the rest was from Kaylee Schaner, a 7th grader at Sandburg whose teacher was Miss Iazzetto. Kaylee submitted the top essay, mentioning that Miss Iazzetto often gives up her own lunch hour to help Kaylee become a better writer; has served as a great role model for Kaylee who wants to be a teacher herself one day; and, that the skills Kaylee has learned from Miss Izaaetto has helped her in her other classes as well as prepared her for her upcoming high school years. Recognizing those things makes Kaylee rise above the herd in terms of her writing as well as her observation and recognition of how things happening right now are shaping her future – in high school and beyond.

Kaylee, if the teaching thing doesn’t work out, good writers and alert observers are always needed in the field of journalism!

Kaylee Schaner Sandburg, 7th grade Miss Iazzetto “My Teacher is the Best because… … she cares so much about teaching and challenging us to be better students and citizens. “Miss I” has given up lunch hours to spend time with me this year helping me become a better writer.

I want to be a teacher someday and she is a great role model for how I want to teach and work with my students. She is not easy on us but that is okay. She is helping us be successful in her class now and preparing us for when we get to high school. It makes me feel good when I do well in her class because I know that

I have to work hard to earn good grades.

She really shows she cares for all of us in how she works with us and takes the time to help when we need it. That makes me want to do better in all my classes and really show just how well I can do in school. I’m so glad that I was put in Miss Iazzetto’s class this year because I know I’m a better reader and writer now thanks to her and that also means I’m better in all my other classes! I know I’ll always remember her from Sandburg and also later when I start thinking about how I can be a great teacher. I even write down notes for myself now about things she does in class that I want to make sure I do someday because I think they really help us to learn better. She’s just really good at being a teacher and she’s really helped me this year. She truly is the BEST!” First Place – Grade School Graziella Narcisi Because Kaylee is in middle school, a winner from the grade schools was also selected. At ICGS, 3rd grader Graziella Narcisi nominated her teacher Ms. Vokac.

Graziella said Mrs. Vokac was very clear with instructions, used the whiteboards/smartboards to provide examples, and that she set up an election process complete with campaigns, which led to Graziella’s election to the office of Vice President of her class.

Most of all, Graziella noted that Ms. Vokac always smiles and “really likes to teach our class.” It’s wonderful for a teacher to love her work, but to do it in such a way that the students clearly notice it – even as young as 3rd grade – is pretty remarkable. It demonstrates how Ms. Vokac was viewed by her students not only as a teacher but also as a “real person.” That is a skill very few have.

Graziella Narcisi ICGS, 3rd grade Ms. Vokac My Teacher is the Best because…

“The reason I picked Ms. Vokac is because she encourages me to do better.

She is a very nice and not confusing. She is very clear with her instructions. For example, she writes on the white board or smart board examples of how to do our work. She always has a smile on her face. She really likes to teach our class.

The reason I know this is because she takes time to make sure we understand what we are doing. She is a great home-

room teacher. Every first Friday of the month, she sets up a classroom store. We get paid for doing our jobs. Some of our jobs include feeding the fish, put mail in the mailboxes and door holder. She knows what she is doing by teaching us how to work. We also set up an election back in December. We had a campaign and an election. This taught me a lot. I am now the Vice President of the class.

I really love going to school because it is fun and I am learning so much. Thank you Ms. Vokac for all you do! I typed this in purple because it is Ms. Vokac’s favorite color!”

Honorable Mention: Kelsey Wojtalewicz ICGS, 5th grade Mrs. Pedote And finally, Honorable Mention goes to ICGS 5th grader Kelsey Wojtalewicz for using the word “loquacious” in her nomination of her teacher Mrs. Pedote.

“Even thought she thinks we are super loquacious, she still is very nice to all of us.”

It’s unclear if that was a vocabulary word that week, from a Word-A-Day calendar, or if it’s ingrained in Kelsey’s day-to-day conversation, but it sent a certain editor of one local community newspaper off to dictionary.com to learn its meaning!

To spare our readers the same, loquacious is an adjective meaning: 1. talking or tending to talk much or freely; talkative; chattering; babbling; garrulous.

Ex.: “a loquacious dinner guest.”

2. Characterized by excessive talk; wordy.

Ex.: “easily the most loquacious play of the season.”

See what you can learn by reading your local newspaper? From a 5th grader no less!

What happens next?

School has adjourned for the summer but the Independent will still bring its readers a feature story about the two first place winners and their teachers in a later issue. Miss Iazzetto and Ms. Vokac will receive dinner for two in downtown Elmhurst at a restaurant of their choosing.

Mrs. Pedote will receive a congratulatory letter from the Elmhurst Independent.

The Independent’s “My Teacher Is The Best” essay contest will be offered again next spring.

DiCianni given Government Integrity Award State Crime Commission recognizes his advocacy for autism

Pete DiCianni, a member of the DuPage County Board (Dist. 2), was honored with the 2016 Government Integrity Award by the Illinois State Crime Commission for his advocacy as a state leader and for people with autism.

DiCianni has been an active and vocal advocate for autism, traveling back and forth to Springfield to meet with legislative leaders to convince them to pass legislation to make sure autism spectrum disorders are covered by insurance. In 2008, Brianna’s Law, named for his daughter, was passed to insure autism as a medical condition. His initiatives have gone on to become law in other states. At this time, 44 states have similar laws for insuring autism as Illinois

does.

In 2011 while Mayor of Elmhurst, DiCianni supported James’ Law after James O’Brien, a young non-verbal child with autism, who had gone missing. As a member of DuPage County’s 9-1-1 executive board, he tested technology and later lobbied for legislation that would allow for GPS bracelets for persons with cognitive challenges including autism, Down Syndrome, Alzheimer’s and dementia.

DiCianni serves as Chairman of the Illinois Autism Task Force, which is the policy advisory group to the Governor and the Illinois legislature.

His name is on the November ballot for U.S. Congress-IL (8th District).

“It has been my pleasure to advocate for our most vulnerable people, children and the elderly,” he said. “My service has always been dedicated to being the voice for those who often do not have one. By giving families the tools to keep their loved ones safe and have access to treatment to help them recover or live with their challenges.”

Buying cars for our daughter over the years

Not valid with any other offer. Expires 7/31/16.

JILL PERTLER Contributor

pushed her feet against the cement, “driving” away from us, laughing with a new sense of freedom.

Her second car was a little red convertible. We bought it when she wasn’t yet old enough for kindergarten. She saved most of the money for it herself - from birthdays and other gifts. Pretty good for a preschooler. This second gem had an operational foot pedal and was battery-powered – a pretty gutsy parental move on our part.

She learned to press the pedal to make the car go. It even had a

reverse option and it was amazing how quickly she became proficient at backing up and maneuvering in tight spaces. As her parents, we were impressed (of course we were). She delighted in giving her little brother rides up and down the driveway, enjoying an independence not yet experienced.

Her third car was cute as a bug and her favorite color – yellow. It required a valid driver’s license, registration and gasoline. Footpower was no longer enough. She was 16, or in the words of her little brother, “almost a grown-up.” She continued to delight in giving her brothers rides – to exotic and exciting places that reached far beyond the driveway and most often served ice cream or French fries.

It was an independence not previously experienced.

Her fourth car was purchased by her own volition and the cute

yellow bug was passed down to a younger (and much taller, longlegged) brother. (We’re still not sure how he fits.) With her purchase, she learned about tax and license fees, along with loan rates, monthly payments, insurance, deductibles, comprehensive and collision – all responsibilities she hadn’t experienced before. She caught on to the new vocabulary words and terminology almost as quickly as she learned to maneuver in reverse when she was in kindergarten.

She still gives her brothers rides sometimes, but for the most part they drive themselves where they need to go. Like her, they are “almost grown-ups.”

Since she was 2, she’s been driving. And in a sense, driving away.

It’s how things are meant to be.

That’s the master plan, anyway; to have them become “almost grown-

ups,” or at least grown up enough to leave and pay their own car insurance and find the independence they’ve been moving toward since they first crawled, or walked or peddled away on their own.

As she backs down the driveway and heads out on the big highway called life we know, although bittersweet, things are as they should be.

And when she comes back to visit, which we are counting on, it will not be bitter at all – only sweet. So. Very. Sweet.

Kind of like riding in a brand new convertible for the very first time.

I remember the day we bought her first car. It was promoted as being the best-selling vehicle in the U.S. that year and came complete with a flashy red body and a yellow roof. We brought it home and it sat on the driveway prinstinely clean, with that new car smell and all. It was a cute little coupe, with room for just two – passenger and driver. In a word, cozy.

There wasn’t any horsepower to speak of. More like foot power, Flintstone-style. She could barely see over the steering wheel and her feet could just reach the ground to push the little plastic car along the driveway.

The car was for our daughter.

She was 2 years old. It was a toy, but it gave her an independence not yet experienced. She loved opening and shutting the door and it was amazing how quickly she mastered the steering wheel. She

Life-long resident brings Guaranteed Rate to town Hangs on to a bit of Elmhurst history

By Dee Longfellow FOR THE ELMHURST INDEPENDENT

It’s one of the biggest decisions we make in our entire life. And yet, some people stumble through the unfamiliar process on their own.

“Buying a house is not only a big decision, it’s usually the biggest investment people make in their lives.”

Those are the words of John Noldan, owner of Guaranteed Rate, a mortgage service company that recently moved into a space on Adelaide Street, across the street from The Snuggery and the Adelaide parking deck.

“Because buying a home is such a major event, we like to make the process smooth and comfortable for clients,” he told the Independent in an exclusive interview.

Not only does Guaranteed Rate find the best possible rate and terms for your mortgage, but also Noldan and his staff of employees will take you through every step of the process, explaining along the way who all the players are, what the costs are and where all the fees go. From the initial decision all the way to closing, Noldan offers homebuyers assistance and, with so many skilled people right in the office including an in-house underwriter and closer, he can move the process along more quickly than most companies can – some in as little as two weeks.

His deep roots in Elmhurst brought him to open his state-of-theart office here. Nolden was born and raised here, graduated from York High School, and has always had a fondness for the community.

“Most of my business has always been in this area so it only made sense to place our offices here,” he said. “Also, let’s face it, Elmhurst is the ideal place in terms of location.”

His customers are realtors and lenders such as banks, as well as individual homebuyers. Because he loves helping people, Noldan naturally enjoys handling the service end of the mortgage process for his customers and clients.

“We want to be the local lender with the best rates, best service and lowest possible costs,” he said. “We keep customers updated along the way, so the process is seamless. We walk the clients through every step, we’ll even go to the closing with you.”

It’s such a priority to Noldan that in 2015, he was named the #1 loan officer in the State of Illinois in Customer Service & Satisfaction. It was just one of several awards Noldan has received over the years.

Unconventional office includes pool table, bar If you have the occasion to visit Noldan’s office, brace yourself for a space that’s a bit unconventional for a mortgage office – or any office for that matter.

While the reception area and offices are typical, as you move through the space you find yourself in comfortable casual surroundings that include a full bar and a pool table, along with big soft upholstered chairs, rather than typical waiting room furniture found in most places.

“Sometimes people laugh when they see the bar, but the fact is, I do a lot of entertaining in my business of realtors and other business professionals,” he said. Noldan recently held a grand opening of the office, which drew a great number of realtors and other Elmhurst business leaders.

The space is open for community groups and meetings, Noldan said.

Anyone who is interested can call (630) 290-6251.

Community involvement is nothing for new, since he has been the chairman of the Annie Ryan Fun Run for the past several years, noting this was the Run’s last year.

“Other events, other fun runs are happening in the name of other young people in town, so we thought it was the right time to have it end,” said Noldan, who happens to be Jim Ryan’s nephew.

He is also an Executive Board member for Catholics Charities among other endeavors. He holds his own boxing event at Drury Lane and a golf outing. Noldan has also been involved in several charity efforts in north Elmhurst in the Churchville School neighborhood.

More about the iconic building The building truly is an icon of the community, having been home to Press Publications, the original publishers of the Elmhurst Press, for almost 100 years. With that significant history, Noldan kept the large doors that led into the newspaper’s vault, so they are a focal point in his office.

“I think they’re great and they hold on to a little bit of Elmhurst history,” he said. “I’m proud to have them in here.”

Pictured is John Noldan, an Elmhurst resident for his entire life, who just opened Guaranteed Rate, a new mortgage service company that prides itself on individual personal service through every step of the home-buying process.

New orthodontist serves Elmhurst well Takes over practice of Dr. Lang after his sudden passing

By Marisa Mancini FOR THE ELMHURST INDEPENDENT

Dr. Milan Doshi, a New York native with an Illinois connection, has taken over Dr. Richard Lang’s practice after Dr. Lang’s sudden passing in February 2015.

His impressive credentials include an undergraduate degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and a degree in dentistry from the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Doshi and his wife, Rutvi, met in Boston while was he doing his dental residency at Tufts University and she was in optometry school. Rutvi is originally from Hoffman Estates and attended the University of Illi-

nois. The couple had been considering moving back to the Chicago area for a few years.

Dr. Doshi heard from a colleague in Glen Ellyn about Dr. Lang’s practice becoming available. He flew out the very next week and decided to make the move.

Although he bought the practice in May 2015, he did not move here until September. The transition was a bit complicated as his wife was pregnant and he had an established eight-year practice in Boston. For three months, he flew to Elmhurst every Wednesday to see patients.

He saw his Boston patients the remaining weekdays. He credits Dr. Lang’s staff, all of whom stayed on as Dr. Doshi’s staff, for facilitating the transition.

Dr. Doshi has the same office space and staff as Dr. Lang, but has made many changes to reflect his unique style of practice. His main priorities are patient comfort, exceptional care and an overall posi-

tive experience. He has been overwhelmed by the friendly, family oriented people he has met in Elmhurst and has enjoyed participating in community events including the pizza tasting fundraiser at York High School.

During his lunch break, Dr. Doshi enjoys walking through downtown Elmhurst.

His favorite destinations include Courageous Bakery and Brain Freeze. He and his wife are the proud parents on their 9-month-old

daughter, Neeva. They rent a home in Downers Grove, but plan to move to Elmhurst. His hobbies include running and golf. He is also football and basketball fan, though probably not for Chicago teams. We can work on that.

BEWSF continues scholarship tradition in Elmhurst Awards monetary prizes to four students

The Brian E. Wagner Scholarship Fund (BEWSF) is in its 5th annual year of awarding monetary aid to emerging young leaders in Elmhurst.

Brian Edwin Wagner’s untimely passing in 1993 at the age of 16 was the inspiration behind the organization. His story and commitment to excellence is remembered in the lives of the deserving recipients who have diligently served and represented Elmhurst during their high school experience.

The 2015-2016 recipients have been definitive exam-

ples of: perseverance, reliability and compassion.

BEWSF Exec Administrator Tracey Degnan awarded the scholarship to Rosie Moll at York High School’s academic awards night.

“This scholarship is a blessing to me and my family,” Rosie said upon receiving the award. “I intend to continue serving my community through volunteerism while I’m at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida. I will major in business administration and minor in marketing.”

At Immaculate Conception High School, BEWSF Directors, Dan Gibbons and Brian Doherty granted scholarships to Clare Ryan and Claudia Koch.

Author, historian Tim Samuelson coming to Historical Museum June 26 New exhibit is based on Samuelson’s extensive collection of Popeil and Ronco products

As Tim Samuelson readily admits in the preface to his book But Wait, There’s More! The Irresistible Appeal and Spiel of Ronco and Popeil (Rizzoli International Publications, 2002), when he first became fascinated with collecting those handy, helpful products that are the hallmark of the Ronco and Popeil names, he was inclined to keep his fascination to himself.

Perhaps plastic gadgets with “OMatic” in their names could be considered a bit low-brow and might make people reconsider his reputation as a respected author, architectural historian, and the official cultural historian of Chicago.

But that concern didn’t stop Samuelson from embarking on a collecting journey through garage sales, resale shops, and online auctions seeking all things emblazoned with the name Ronco or Popeil. The result is a vast array of Veg-O-Matics, Chop-O-Matics, Inside-the-Shell

Egg Scramblers and so many more—the same products that have occupied space in America’s cupboards for decades.

It would seem Samuelson is not the only one who finds it hard to resist the Tim Samuelson allure of these welldesigned gizmos.

Samuelson’s fascination led to the publication of the 2002 book, and now his collection and book are showcased in a new exhibit at the Elmhurst History Museum, also entitled But Wait, There’s More!, which will be open from June 14 through Sept. 18.

To share insights on his fascinating personal collection and some of the interesting things he learned as he researched the Popeil/Ronco story, Mr. Samuelson will present a lecture at the Elmhurst His-

tory Museum at 2 p.m. Sunday, June 26. A book signing will follow the talk, and a few copies of But Wait, There’s More! will be available for purchase. The program is free, and no reservations are required.

The presentation takes place in the Elmhurst History Museum’s Education Center, located at 120 E. Park Ave. in Elmhurst.

Limited on-site parking is available. Before and after the talk, participants are invited to check out the But Wait, There’s More! exhibit in the Glos Mansion. The museum is open on June 26 from 1-5 p.m. Admission is free.

Please note: this program was incorrectly listed as taking place on July 26 in the museum’s printed calendar.

Women Who Care choose LeGere Foundation for donation

By Dee Longfellow FOR THE ELMHURST INDEPENDENT

The group known as 100+ Women Who Care recently presented The Annie LeGere Foundation with the group’s quarterly donation. The group chose to support the Foundation’s efforts to promote allergy awareness and to provide Epipens and training for their use to first responders and schools.

“Having the privilege and resources to be members of this fine organization, it is our responsibility to connect 100+ Women Who Care with those in the Elmhurst community who are attempting to change lives,” said Bev Krohn, who along with Ann Palumbo, presented the funds to the Annie LeGere Foundation at a recent meeting. “The Annie LeGere Foundation is doing just that, so it made sense to advocate on their behalf. We are thrilled that the group recognized this. “ Shelly LeGere, founder of the nonprofit group, updated those gathered at Wilder Park about the Annie LeGere Law, which would give state and local police permission to carry and administer Epipens. The effort to pass the legislation was spearheaded

by Illinois State Senator Chris Nybo, who represents Elmhurst.

“Receiving the 100 + Women Who Care donation for my beautiful Annie’s foundation really was such an honor,” she said.

County officials participate in Bike to Work Week In an effort to promote a healthy lifestyle and clean environment, DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin, county employees and several community bicycle enthusiasts rode their bikes to work Tuesday in honor of Bike to Work Week.

“We are fortunate to have an abundance of forest preserves and biking trails in DuPage County that have a positive impact on our quality of life,” Cronin said. “Not only is bicycling good for our bodies and the environment, but it provides a unique opportunity to explore our community.”

The DuPage and City of Elmhurst officials biked from Elmhurst to the DuPage County Government Complex in Wheaton. They were joined members of bicycle groups and environmental organizations.

DuPage County website features software that allows bicyclists to map the safest route between two destinations, among its 500 miles of bikeways and trails, with point-by-point directions.

Go Bike software and other electronic mapping resources can be accessed at dupageco.org/bikeways/.

DuPage Convalescent Center named for Judge Ken Moy Was first-ever Asian-American elected to county government in state

On Tuesday, June 14, the DuPage County Board voted to name the County’s Convalescent Center in honor of former County Board member Kenneth Moy, citing his decades of service as a barrier-breaking elected DuPage County Board member and as a member of the 18th Circuit Court.

Ken Moy became the first AsianAmerican elected to county government in the state of Illinois when he won a seat on the DuPage County Board in 1984. He won re-election to the Board in 1988 and 1994. During that time, he also served as a DuPage Forest Preserve Commissioner. He then served as a member of the 18th Circuit Court for 11 years from 1996 to his retirement in 2007.

On May 10, Judge Moy announced he was making a $2 million gift to the Convalescent Center, prompted by his “deep desire to help seniors and disabled adults,” related to his own experience with his wife, who is battling Alzheimer’s disease. Moy said he hoped his legacy inspires others to pursue community service.

“I am grateful to the County Board and to the community for honoring me in this way,” he said. “My hope is to influence others and make life in Du-

Page County better for all residents, especially those like my wife, who need our support as they battle difficult medical conditions.”

“Ken Moy’s life is an example of the impact one person can have in their community,” said County Board Chairman Dan Cronin. “He is determined to serve the public long after he is gone. We salute his life, his work and his community devotion.”

Jim Healy, District 5 County Board Member said in making the motion to rename the Center, “I am confident Ken Moy’s legacy will be to inspire people to become involved in our community,” said District 5 County Board member Jim Healy. “We are pleased to honor this public servant who paved the way for so many.”

The DuPage Convalescent Center has been in operation since 1888, providing quality care to elderly and disabled residents. Approximately 75 percent of its residents receive Medicaid funding. The DCC Foundation was established in 1993 to provide support and supplemental funding to improve the quality of life for Convalescent Center residents.

She even helped create some Cubs fans when she lived in California and regularly watched the games with friends. Now, with Cubs Checking, even Rose’s bank account can show her love for her team!

Business briefs HHS awards $4+ million to expand dental coverage in Illinois Last week, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Sylvia M. Burwell announced $4,374,999 in funding to support 12 health centers in Illinois. The funding will increase access to integrated oral health care services and improve oral health outcomes for Health Center Program patients. Nationwide, today’s announcement includes nearly $156 million in funding to support 420 health centers in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. This funding enables health centers to expand integrated oral health care services and increase the number of patients served.

With these awards from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), health centers across the country will increase their oral health service capacity by hiring approximately 1,600 new dentists, dental hygienists, assistants, aides, and technicians to treat nearly 785,000 new patients.

York announces new varsity coach hirings Dukes welcome five new head coaches to fold for 2016-2017 school year

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

York High School will have several new faces on the varsity coaching front this coming school year.

Maggie Ely is the school’s new head girls basketball coach. She replaces John Constable.

Lauren DeAngelis is the new head girls cross-country coach. She replaces Annette Schulte, who retired from teaching at the end of the recent school year.

Keegan Kilrea is the new head girls track coach, replacing the retired Schulte, who coached both cross country and track at York.

Mike DiNovo is the new head wrestling coach. He replaces longtime coach Terry Clarke, who retired from the head coaching position.

Olivia Wolicki is the new head cheerleading coach. She replaces Dena Poulos.

York athletic director Rob Wagner announced the head softball coaching position recently was posted.

Former coach Jenna Nolan stepped down from that position earlier this month to spend more time with her family. Nolan was part of a recent regime as either a head coach or assistant coach that produced five regional titles in a row.

The Independent will have profiles on these new coaches throughout the summer months.

York summer baseball team enjoying strong participation numbers

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

York baseball coach Dave Kalal has no shortage of players to watch this summer.

Kalal noted he has 32 players on the summer roster. “We have a lot of kids out, which is good,” he said.

“It’s great that the interest is there.

Half these kids already have pitched and everybody has received at-bats and has played the field. We are seeing a lot of everything. We are seeing what guys can and cannot do.”

Kalal and his staff are particularly fond of the summer season.

“Our coaching staff likes summer

league,” he said. “It gives us the chance to see what kids can do in certain situations and how they react. Are they better coming into the game as a reliever or do they do better as a starting pitcher? We need role players in the spring. We need courtesy runners, pinch runners, kids who can go in and play defense or put down a sacrifice bunt.

Those are components of a successful team. We have good numbers at the varsity level and good ones at the sophomore level. Everybody is getting the opportunity to show what they can do.”

Through late last week York was

3-4 in summer competition. York lost to Wheaton North twice, split with Willowbrook, split with Benet Academy and defeated Leyden in a single game.

“We’ve been down a couple games this summer and have battled back,” said Kalal. “Our offensive approach has been good and guys are moving runners over, hitting behind the runner and with less than two outs moving runners over. We’re making contact and putting the ball in play and we’re being aggressive and trying to get 90 feet closer to home.”

York is young on the mound this summer. “We have a few senior

pitchers who had a lot of appearances this spring. Right now we’re looking for guys who can get us varsity innings next spring,” said Kalal.

“We’re looking for consistent strike throwers who can get outs. It’s great to see 16 pitchers already get an opportunity in seven summer games.

Some of them already have multiple appearances. It comes down to throwing strikes and getting outs.”

Will Dvorak appeared in 13 games on the mound this spring and returns, along with the likes of Burke Corcoran (9 spring appearances) and Nick Lee (9 appearances). Austin Gelsomino also returns

to the staff after logging varsity innings this spring.

“We’re running guys out there almost every inning or every other inning,” said Kalal. “Our pitchers are getting a lot of opportunities.”

Kalal cited strong recent contributions from transfer student Andrew Dardurff (junior-to-be center fielder from Northridge College Prep), Scott Tucker and Lee. “Andrew has been a pleasant surprise for us,” he said. “Scott Tucker has thrown a couple innings after missing the spring with a wrist in-

jury. It’s nice to see him get out there and compete. Nick Lee is hitting the ball well. He had 85 at-bats this spring and has made some good adjustments this summer. He’s putting the bat on the ball consistently and not trying to do too much.”

York was scheduled to play Downers Grove North, Downers Grove South and Leyden earlier this week.

“The kids have been hustling and putting the bat on the ball and advancing the runners,” said Kalal.

“We’re doing the little things. We’re kind of letting the dogs loose this summer and seeing what everybody can do. We talk about creating interest in your ability and not disinterest and playing with no fear. That’s what they are trying to do.”

Elmhurst Lacrosse success continues

League’s Kings of Spring tournament another major success

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

Lacrosse is one of the fastestgrowing sports for kids in the country.

And that growth can be felt in Elmhurst. Elmhurst Lacrosse reported it again has enjoyed an increase in participation this year.

“It keeps growing every year,” Elmhurst Lacrosse’s Bob Duwa said. “More kids are coming out for the sport. We’re getting kids coming from hockey and baseball who want to give it a shot.”

Elmhurst Lacrosse held its annual Kings of Spring tournament, which is a season ending event for the league and features Elmhurst Lacrosse age-level teams playing each other for the right to be called Kings of Spring at a particular age level in the league.

“We have a Stanley Cup-like trophy for each age group and the names of the kids are engraved on it,” said Duwa. “My son plays travel lacrosse and says this tournament is the most fun one because he gets to play with his buddies.”

Kings of Spring encompasses much more than just the age-level tournaments. There is the annual coaches vs. all-stars game. “As one might suspect, the all-stars won,” said Duwa.

This is the sixth year of the tournament, which also features a fastest shot competition, a wall-ball competition and trash-can lacrosse where the goal is an actual trash can.

“In order for kids to get tickets to participate in the events they needed to bring food to give to a local

food pantry,” said Duwa. “We had a huge drive and ended up collecting a lot of food.”

A coaches vs. coaches game also was held and York boys’ lacrosse coach Don Canfield was a guest player.

“Kids loved seeing coach Canfield out there,” said Duwa. “One of our initiatives is to get kids to play at York. The York program is growing as well.”

The Panthers were crowned Elmhurst Lacrosse U9 champions.

The Saints were the U11 winners, while the Lords won the U13 title in overtime. The Dukes were the U15 winners. The all-stars defeated the coaches in overtime.

At the U11 level, Blake Reiger and Zack Parisi tied for first place in the fastest shot competition at 60 miles per hour. Charlie Specht was second at 55 MPH, while John Renier was third at 54 MPH. At U13, Josh Temple won the fastest shot at 75 MPH. Troy Walker was second at 71 MPH and Liam Gecsey was third at 69 MPH. At U15, Jack Callahan was first at 79 MPH. Quinn Egeland was second at 75 MPH and Luke Ruspert was third at 74 MPH. ELMHURST LACROSSE/BOB DUWA PHOTOS Elmhurst Independent At U11 for most wall balls, Reiger was first with 46. Jimmy Elmhurst Lacrosse player Blake Rieger runs the offense during a game earlier this season. Elmhurst Casey took second at 45 and Danny Lacrosse once again has enjoyed a prosperous year with growth in participation numbers and in its Kings of Spring annual tournament.

Wagner was third at 40.

Ryder Maston had the most wall balls at U13 with 47. Sean Leahy was second with 46 and Chase McNeill was third with 42.

Luc Plaisted was first in wall balls at U15 with 39. Egeland was second with 37 and Brian Kelley was third with 30.

Timothy Christian boys basketball team finishes strong at Braidwood Trojans win final three games of shootout

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

Things didn’t start out the greatest for the Timothy Christian boys basketball team at the recent Braidwood shootout at Reed-Custer High School.

The Trojans lost their first two games, but came back on the final day to win all three of their games and leave the event with positives to ponder.

“We lost the second game by two points and I don’t know if we should have lost that one,” said Timothy Christian coach Jack LeGrand. “But

the guys came back and won the last three games.”

Timothy also has been playing in leagues at Riverside-Brookfield and Westmont. “It’s been a summer that has been packed full,” said LeGrand. “Between camps and playing games, we’re going Tuesday through Saturday and we’re playing some good competition. At R-B, we’ve had a good summer so far.”

And LeGrand is seeing his team take steps forward. “The guys are showing flashes and playing very good basketball,” he said. “We have good chemistry and the kids share the ball well. The problem is trying to get consistency the entire game.”

LeGrand said one big boost has been the sophomore class that will be juniors this fall. “The juniors who were sophomores had a lot of success at the lower level,” he said.

“It’s been fun watching them get acclimated to the bigger-school pace of varsity basketball. In our first game you saw that ‘eyes in headlights look’, but that’s long gone now. They are getting better every day.”

Timothy has been led this summer by senior captain Joey Davidson. “Joey is our leader and captain and is having a great summer so far,” said LeGrand. “He was a good leader for us last year.”

The Trojans also have been bolstered by the play of Jonny Strube and Trayvon Williams. “Both of them have played very well,” said LeGrand, who also lauded the contributions of returning seniors Nick Tameling and Jon Hoekstra.

Juniors-to-be Brandon Orange and Ty Merrick have come out strong this summer. “Brandon is 6-5 and has a real nice touch around the basket,” said LeGrand. “Ty also has been playing very good basketball.

He has a nice feel for the game. He sees the floor very well and does a lot of intangible things.”

Other contributors this summer include Michael Thomas, Michael Martens, Nick Huisman and Jimmy Allen. “Michael Thomas is playing good basketball,” said LeGrand.

“Michael Martens was on the state soccer team and is a good guard for us who has played good minutes. The interesting thing is we have some height. Brandon is 6-5, Nick Huisman is 6-4/6-5 and Nick

Tameling is 6-3 and is a strong kid.

Theses kids have big bodies and are able to do some things for us and help us on the glass.”

Allen is a three-sport athlete for the Trojans. “Jimmy is very athletic and plays the three sports, so he’s only been with us a couple days,” said LeGrand. “He’s a piece to the puzzle for us as well.”

Timothy had shootouts on its remaining schedule at Westmont and Willowbrook. The Trojans also are wrapping up play in the R-B league.

“We are making progress,” said LeGrand. “And that starts with seeing more consistency. If we can be more consistent we can take the next step. We definitely are improved.”

York girls lacrosse team enjoys York softball places another productive season Dukes advanced

Dukes finish 2016 season with 16 victories

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

The York softball team most certainly had success once again this spring.

The Dukes won 16 games and brought home the school’s fifth regional title in a row.

And among that team success was an equal amount of individual acumen. York places Abby Solem, Amanda Karnatz, Gabby Magnifico and Katherine Karnatz on the all-West Suburban Conference Silver Division team.

Amanda Karnatz led the team with a .472 batting average. Solem hit .349 and was second on the team with 27 RBI. Magnifico hit .386 and belted a team-best eight homers to go with 35 RBI. Katherine Karnatz, just a freshman, hit .430 with 21 RBI and 33 runs scored. She led York in runs.

Kyra Kroll hit .390 with 26 runs scored and 25 RBI. York also received key contributions from the pitching trio of Julia Derkowski, Andrea Meager and Lauren Wojick.

“Our pitchers were young this year and they hung in there,” said former York coach Jenna Nolan, who stepped down as coach earlier this month. “They went up against some pretty tough teams and got some great experience. All three should be back and they all should be ready to go in the future.”

Nolan was thrilled with how the season unfolded. “Especially with having so many young kids up with us,” she said. “We definitely had a successful season. We won our fifth regional in a row, which was huge. We fell a little short in the sectional. From beginning to end the girls worked well together. The older and younger kids learned so much from each other, which was nice to see.”

Nolan also liked how hard her team played. “They never gave up, especially in that sectional game,” she said. “We were down seven runs in the first inning and the girls did not hang their heads. They are smart softball players and they chipped away. We just couldn’t catch up enough. They kept on fighting. It’s a group that worked very hard in practice and games and worked hard on their own time as well.”

York graduated Solem, Amanda Karnatz, Annie Mundle, Sarah Maciejewski and Magnifico.

“The team will definitely miss having those seniors with them,” Nolan said. “They did a great job as leaders on the varsity. A lot of them have been on the varsity since they were freshmen and sophomores. They taught the younger kids a lot and hopefully the younger kids learned a lot.”

to state final eight for second year in a row

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

The York girls lacrosse team was once again elite this spring.

The Dukes advanced all the way to the IHSWLA final eight teams for the second year in a row.

“We had another really great season,” said York coach Ryan Walz.

“We ended up still being ranked fifth or sixth in the state and all our losses were to teams that finished in

honorable-mention accolades.

“We had a lot of talent. Unfortunately it’s a lot of talent that graduated,” said Walz. “We knew we had a good group coming back. Next year we know we will lose those players, but we still have some very good lacrosse players in the program.”

Beyond talent, Walz points to one other key factor in the team’s success.

“We had team chemistry and great unity,” he said. “There was a lot of camaraderie with these girls.

They got along so well together and always worked really well together. We enjoyed practices together and being around each other. They pushed each other hard and respond-

the final four at the state tournament.

We felt great about that. We are right there, but we haven’t been able to crack that top four yet. We’re working on that.”

York finished the season 20-4.

The Dukes lost twice to Hinsdale Central and once each to Loyola Academy and Maine South. “That’s three teams in the final four,” said Walz. “We played our best throughout the season.”

Emma Baubly, Lauren Anderson, Zoe Lawless, Emily Siegenthaler and Hannah Fleckenstein were named to the all-West Suburban Conference team. Katie Toohey was an at-large all-conference selection.

Baubly, Anderson, Lawless, Siegenthaler, Fleckenstein, Toohey and Ellie Grubbs all earned all-state

ed to those challenges.”

Walz said many goals were accomplished throughout the season. “We set goals and accomplished almost every one we set,” he said. “We wanted to make the Elite Eight and beat our rivals Oak Park-River Forest and Montini and we did that. We knew it would be a huge challenge to make the final four. We were close, but we struggled a little with Maine South. Overall, it was another fantastic season.”

Lawless led the team in goals and ended up third in the state in points and fourth in goals. Lawless is part of a returning group for next season that also includes Siegenthaler and Grubbs.

Walz lauded the contributions of this year’s senior class.

“We are losing some strong girls who will be big losses,” he said. “Some of these girls played varsity for four years.

They’ve done a lot since freshman year. Their freshman year we won five games. We won 20 this year. They improved a ton every year. We had some great senior leaders in this group.”

Walz remembers the first year he started the program at York he had 30 girls. This year that number ballooned to 94 girls.

“The program has grown so much,” he said. “This is the first time we’ve had four teams with a varsity, a JV and two freshman teams. It’s been really great. We’re hoping for another big turnout at summer camp in a few weeks.

Lacrosse continues to grow. It’s going to be an official IHSA sport in two years. There are a lot of reasons for the growth. Girls see it as a fun game. The big thing is we want to get young kids started as early as possible instead of learning as freshmen. It’s starting to happen a little earlier now. I think good things are in the future here. The growth has been great.”

Going to extremes

The Elmhurst Extreme 10U baseball team won the All Star Ballpark Heaven Memorial Day Tournament in Dubuque, Iowa over the holiday weekend. The squad beat the Crystal Lake Bulldogs in the championship game by an 8-3 count. The Extreme honed their winning ways during the Infield Relay Challenge and the Home Run Derby Contest at the tournament skills competition before the main event. The skills competition was held at the Field of Dreams in Dyersville on May 28.

Who are the Zoroastrians?

According to the information provided to the Independent, Zoroastrians have long-served as bridge builders in interfaith dialogue as they see from their own faith, traditions of truth, righteousness, charity, beneficence and respect for creation reflected in traditions of the religions of both the occident and the orient.

Founded circa 1500 BCE, Zoroastrianism is credited to be one of the oldest monotheistic religion, influencing post-exilic Judaism, which adopted some Zoroastrian beliefs such as the ultimate victory of good over evil and the resurrection of souls. These percepts were then transmitted through Judaism to Christianity, and later to Islam. Zoroastrianism flourished as the imperial religion of three Persian empires, those of the Achaemenians, Parthians and Sassanians, and was the dominant religion from Turkey, and eastward to China during those times. North America’s Zoroastrian community includes those who arrived from the Indian subcontinent, known as Parsis, and those who came directly from Iran seeking religious freedom.
