Santa and Mrs. Claus wave to the cameras at Anza Civic Improvement League’s annual holiday event Saturday, Dec. 17.

Diane Seiker VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The Anza Civic Improvement League (ACIL) transformed Anza’s Little Red Schoolhouse into a magical headquarters for a Christmas celebration for both children and adults Saturday, Dec. 17. The event was held from 4-6 p.m.

Santa and Mrs. Claus were the guests of honor, while balloon artist GeriLyn Mellin of Ballooner Nooner created balloon animals and Anza resident Cherish Wade oversaw ornament decorating activities. Children had the opportunity to tell Santa how good they had been all year and inform him of their gift wishes. Mrs. Claus passed out candy canes and hugs.

Organized by ACIL member Bud Elmore and his troop of industrious elves, the event was a huge success.

It was a warm and festive community get together.

Children both young and old had the opportunity to decorate salt dough cookie cut ornaments.

Cherish Wade assisted the children and clear-coated the ornaments to keep them beautiful for years

to come. These ornaments were used to decorate the live Christmas tree set up in the schoolhouse.

Mellin captivated the little ones with her fascinating balloon twisting skills, creating reindeer, mermaids, tigers, flowers and more.

From The Heart volunteers, local churches and groups make Christmas bright for over 400 area children Jodi Thomas ANZAEDITOR@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Ten Christmases after their first Gift Giveaway, From the Heart Women’s Christian Ministries are still making Christmas bright for area families.

Christmas is generally a magical time for most children they dream at Christmastime of what they want and may find under the Christmas tree with great anticipation. But for many families finding themselves in the throes of hard times during such seasonal events as going back to school and Christmas can fill parents and children with worry and despair. Seeing this need, 10 years ago, in the midst of her own personal grief after her son’s tragic passing, FTH’s Founder Linda Hart

The Amphibian and Reptile Atlas contains information from both the San Diego Natural History Museum’s herpetology database and over 17,000 citizen science observations and counting, thanks to their adoption of iNaturalist.org.

People can learn how to participate and what’s been learned so far.

After an indoor morning presentation and lunch at the research center, the class will head into the field for hands-on practice using the app for a park project to record sightings of the endangered elephant tree near the Elephant Tree Trail just north of Fish Creek. Students come prepared for an afternoon in the field.

All participants must download the iNaturalist app and set up an account before the start of this class.

Please contact Briana Puzzo at 760767-0446 ext. 1004 for assistance.

The hike level is easy; only a few miles of off-trail walking will be involved. Bring lunch, smartphone or tablet with iNaturalist downloaded, water, sun protection, good walking

ESSAYISTS from page A-1 members, according to Robert Cobb VFW Post Commander.

The VFW and Auxiliary members took time out Dec. 7 to honor the military men and women who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor.

Meanwhile the VFW is in the process of collecting items to be auctioned off during a December silent auction. The date for the auction has yet to be decided, Cobb said. Already donated is a wine basket, antique jewelry and other items. Donations for the auction are welcome and can be dropped off at the VFW Hall at 59011 Bailey Road in Anza.

On December 31, the post will host a New Years’ Eve party from 6 p.m. to midnight. Karaoke starts at 7 p.m. Members can bring their

shoes and snacks.

The class will be held at the Steele Burnand Anza-Borrego Desert Research Center, 401 Tilting T Drive, in Borrego Springs from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The class costs $35 for the public and $25 for foundation members.

Instructor, Hollingsworth has had a life-long interest in the diversity of amphibians and reptiles. He received his B.S. in 1988 and M.S. in 1995 from San Diego State University and his doctorate in 1999 from Loma Linda University. His research focuses on the systematics and biogeography of amphibians and reptiles of the Southwest, including the Baja California peninsula and its associated islands.

He is responsible for the care and maintenance of Museum’s 78,000 amphibian and reptile research specimens and regularly teaches as an adjunct professor at San Diego State University.

Recently, he launched the Amphibian and Reptile Atlas of Peninsular California. The goal of the new atlas is to combine both museum collection data and observations from citizen scientists to help better understand the biodiversity of our region. The atlas is a binational effort covering southern California to the tip of Baja California. With the creation of a user-friendly website, getting access to biodiversity data are greatly simplified. This access includes the Museum’s herpetology database and digital images of specimens in the collection. Citizen scientists have already contributed over 11,000 observations through the adoption of the iNaturalist.org platform.

Eagle-eyed volunteers counted 11 bald eagles in the Inland Empire

LaReina Van Sant, Forest Service Biological Science technician, lines up her telescope on a bald eagle she spotted sitting in a pine tree across Lake Hemet during a bald eagle count in the San Bernardino National Forest Saturday, Dec. 10.

Tony Ault photos

SAN BERNARDINO – The first bald eagle count of the winter was conducted by local, federal and state biologists and citizen scientists around several lakes in southern California Saturday, Dec. 10. Several dozen bald eagles typically spend their winter vacations around southern California’s lakes, adding to a few resident nesting bald eagles that stay year-round.

A total of 11 bald eagles (seven adults and four subadults/juveniles) were observed by 101 eagle-eyed observers during the one-hour count period Saturday morning. Bald eagles acquire the full white head and tail in their fifth year. Until then, they have different plumages of brown and white.

Locally, 15 participants watched the pair of adult eagles at Lake Hemet. Ken Kietzer, a senior environmental scientist at Lake Perris State Recreation Area, reported two adult bald eagles observed by 28 people. Kathy Williams from Silverwood State Recreation Area reported that a beautiful outing was had by their 12 eagle counters but, unfortunately no eagles showed up.

Six participants scanned the skies at Lake Arrowhead, spotting two adult bald eagles. Forty participants helped with the census at Big Bear Lake where five eagles (one adult and four subadults) were counted.

The count coordinators from the Forest Service and State Recreation Areas would like to thank those participants for their dedication in getting up early and participating in the eagle censuses this winter.

The success of the eagle counts is entirely dependent on the citizen scientists.

The next bald eagle counts are scheduled for Jan. 14, Feb. 11 and March 11. All the counts are held on Saturday mornings and no experience is needed. There is no sign-up for those wishing to assist with the counts. Those interested should show up at the designated time and location, dress warmly, bring binoculars and a watch.

Counting eagles is fun, easy, and only takes a couple of hours.

Participants meet at 8 a.m. (or 8:30 a.m. for Lake Hemet) for coordination and instructions. They are at

their observation sites from 9-10 a.m. and then return to turn in the observation forms.

Who can you trust to help you with your Medical Insurance Needs?

TesTimonial “We never realized how much difference it would mean to have the right medical group on your side. My husband is on Medicare and the ‘Medical Group’ he was with was stringing him along for over a year concerning his health issues. Egregious things kept happening and we were more than frustrated. I suggested we talk to Charise about what we were experiencing. I thought perhaps she would know what we should do. When my husband shared what was going on with Charise she took the matter seriously and moved into action; she even made phone calls to his current medical group to see if we could get some satisfaction. After getting nowhere herself she checked out the groups rating. She discovered their customer care rating was so bad they were in danger of losing their insurance companies that subscribe patients to them. She promptly found my husband a new group with excellent ratings. Come this last January 2016 for the first time someone took my husband’s cardiac Arrhythmia and other issues seriously. He was sent to an excellent Cardiologist who promptly sent him to a Superb Electrophysiologist who found what the problem was.

Surgery was scheduled and using an ablation technique, the Electrophysiologist was able to fix his arrhythmia. My husband is doing much better and I believe her caring ways helped to save his quality and quantity of life. The right insurance group is important and having a knowledgeable caring person like Charise on your side is invaluable.” - The Thomas’

Thimble Club has a new meeting place Jodi Thomas ANZAEDITOR@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The Thimble Club at 104 years old is the oldest club in the area started by local women. Sadly, over recent years, membership has gone down as members have either aged out or moved away.

With very little new growth in membership the group has decided to move from their historic meeting place at the Anza Community Hall to Valley Gospel’s Fellowship Hall.

This choice will save them fundraising dollars so they can continue their philanthropic work which focuses on helping other community groups such as 4-H, the Boy Scouts, scholarship funds, Citizens Patrol Lions Club and more. They also create and donate lap quilts for the VA annually.

The move was an emotional choice as Thimble Club members have cared for the Anza Commu-

nity Hall for decades, some even have family members who helped built it.

The monthly meeting and luncheons are still held on the first Thursday of each month at 11:30 a.m. Lunch cost $5 and often a special speaker comes to meeting.

Supervisors vote to defer salary increases for 2 years RIVERSIDE – Riverside County supervisors voted Tuesday, Dec. 13, to freeze their salaries for the next two years to demonstrate support for salary caps at all levels of county government.

“Recognizing the economic conditions of the county, the Board of Supervisors proposes to defer any salary increases from Dec. 31, 2016, through Dec. 31, 2018,” according to a statement posted to the board’s policy agenda by Supervisor Marion Ashley.

During the Dec. 13 board meeting, Ashley expressed sensitivity to public criticism about pay hikes.

It was reported in November that board members were in line to receive a 1.36 percent increase in pay, retroactive to July 1.

Neither Ashley nor his colleagues commented on the decision to put off any further salary adjustments until the end of 2018. Supervisor John

Benoit was absent for health reasons and did not join in the 4-0 vote.

Supervisors salaries are based on a formula that fixes the rate at 80 percent of the amounts paid to Superior Court judges. Salaries are adjusted every four years.

Ashley, Benoit and fellow Supervisors John Tavaglione and Chuck Washington are paid $153,289 annually.

Supervisor Kevin Jeffries, who was elected in 2012 on a plank of refusing all salary increases for the duration of his time in office, earns $143,031 yearly.

Board members also receive health care coverage and vehicle allowances.

The county is in the early stages of negotiating contracts with several unions and the board is seeking to hold down costs by freezing cost of living adjustments and merit pay bonuses for employees.

“I’m very impressed that it came together like it did,” ACIL vice president Ken Ogren said. “It’s time to let people know the Old Schoolhouse and the park are there for the community to enjoy.”

Ogren said he wanted to give, “A great big shoutout to Bud Elmore and his crew of elves who made this such a memorable night for the children, young and old.”

“The Schoolhouse was decorated to the max and it looked wonderful,” he said. “Also, a huge thank you to all who made those delicious cookies. And of course what would it be without Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus. I would also like to thank Eli Higgins and Lori Sutton for their help and participation in the event. Most of all, this would never have been a successful event without the participation of our local children and the parents who brought them. We are looking forward to next year’s event already.”

Bud Elmore was also appreciative of the help the group received.

“We couldn’t have done this without the following persons and probably many more: Tabatha Dawes and her children, Karen and Robert Mcleod, Debbie and Pat Vesey, Cherish Wade, Michele Arvig, Steve Tidwell, Pat Whittle, Mark Oldar, Jeff Volmer, Lorraine and Buddy Elmore and everyone else who I didn’t get names of and the town of Anza,” he said. “All remaining homemade cookies and some hot chocolate mix was donated to our firefighters at Anza station 29.”

The ACIL would like to invite all the children who helped decorate the Christmas tree at this event to come back to the park at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 14, 2017, to help plant the Christmas tree. For more information, please contact Elmore at (951) 581-4409 or Ogren at (619) 417-0125.

Bobcats running back Randy Lopez earns Bob Stangel Award

Hamilton High School Football Coach Keith Moorman stands with this year’s Hemet Sportsman’s Club Bob Stangel Football award winner Randy Lopez. Lopez was a high-scoring running back for the Bobcats.

Randy Lopez, Hamilton High School Football teams outstanding senior running back and safety may be small in frame put has helped

lead his team in touchdowns during the past four years with the Bobcats.

Nobody is prouder of his achievements than Hamilton Bobcats football coach Keith Moorman and his mother, Catalina Lopez.

His outstanding achievements on

the football team are only equaled by his 3.5 average GPA. His skill on the Bobcats team over the past four years has not gone unnoticed and Dec. 3 he was presented an award as a finalist for the coveted Bob Stangel Football Award by the Hemet Sportsman’s Club in Hemet.

He was selected by members of the Sportsman’s Club as the most outstanding senior football player at Hamilton High School.

The Hemet Sportsman’s Club at the Hidden Hacienda is made up many former area high school and college football greats and coaches.

The club members, who sometimes act at scouts for local colleges and universities, watched the 5 foot 135 pound running back on many occasions leave the Bobcat’s opponents far back on the field and fly through the goalposts for a Bobcat touchdown.

Lopez may not have been aware of the Sportsman Clubs scouting during the Hamilton games. The former athletes in the Sportsman Club go to all the major high school events including football, baseball,

basketball and volleyball to name a few. The members evaluate the many players on the teams and their performances and nominate the best of the athletes for the Bob Stangel awards. The top senior football player of the seven high schools, including the private schools in the Hemet Unified School District are then selected for a Bob Stangel award.

Stengel, a special guest at the fourth football awards banquet Dec. 3, was the Mt. San Jacinto College football coach for more than 20 years. Many of the 50 or more Sportsman Club athletes were coached by him when they were at the college. The club decided to create the Bob Stagel Awards in his honor. The awards often come with a scholarship to help the young players attend college or a trade school.

“I really can’t remember how many touchdowns I made,” said a shy and modest young man in a telephone interview. While he still has until May to graduate he has applied to a number of colleges and universities but is not necessarily

Tom Firth elected to AEC Board of Directors Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Anza Electric Cooperative announced Tom Firth, well-known Anza resident and horseman, has won the election for the open AEC Board of Directors at large seat.

Firth replaces Paul Elmore, a longtime board member who was killed in a motorcycle accident in July.

The election was held during November after ballots were sent out to the more that 4,000 AEC members and counted Dec. 9. A total of 499 votes were cast with seven qualified

nominees listed.

The Ballot Box, an independent election processor, provided the following results of the election.

Firth received 206 votes to win the seat. The other candidates included Ed Wall with 63 votes; Megan Haley, 54; Merl Johnson, 52; Anita Knoppel and John Sheehan with 45 votes each; and Robert Hepler with 34.

Firth is a longtime resident of Anza and has been active in many community activities but is best known for his contributions and help with the Redshank Riders, an

looking for a football scholarship and wants to study engineering his first love. His best pick would be Cal State Long Beach.

“I do love football,” he said, “especially the intensity and getting ready for it.” And to the Sportsman’s Club says he is ready to achieve on the field and in the classroom.

“I feel honored,” said Lopez after receiving his award. “There are so many great athletes on our team…

I guess it pays to be fast.”

No less proud of her son is mother Catalina. “I am absolutely proud of him. I have never had a problem with him. He is well liked by everybody.”

She credits Pastor Blake Booth of Valley Gospel Church, his Leadership program, and Hamilton High Coach Mo Chacon with helping young Lopez with his high school sports and study achievements.

Lopez, who will graduate in May, tells the younger Hamilton High students, “Try out for football. It’s great,” words Coach Moorman likes to hear.

State plan seeks to make water conservation a way of life SACRAMENTO - Working to make water conservation a way of life, state agencies have released a draft plan for achieving long-term efficient water use and meeting drought preparedness goals that reflect California’s diverse climate, landscape and demographic conditions.

“Californians rose to the challenge during this historic drought and recognized that conservation is critical in the face of an uncertain future. This plan is about harnessing the creativity and innovation that Californians have shown during the driest years in state history and making water conservation a way of life in the years ahead,” California Department of Water Resources Director Mark Cowin said. “This plan will help make permanent changes to water use so California is better prepared for whatever the future brings.”

The new plan’s fundamental premise is that efficient water use helps all of California better prepare for longer and more severe droughts caused by climate change.

California recently suffered the driest four years in state history, with only average rainfall last year, and 75 percent of the state remains in severe drought conditions.

Meanwhile, a new report from the University of California Los Angeles projects that the Sierra Nevada snowpack — one of California’s largest sources of water supply—is likely to drop 50 percent by the end of the century due to climate change.

Recognizing these risks and many others, today’s plan seeks permanent changes to water use that boost efficiency and prepare for more limited water supplies. These practices will help achieve a top priority in the governor’s Water Action Plan to “Make Conservation a California Way of Life.”

The plan builds on the success of mandatory water restrictions

during California’s severe drought and develops long-term water conservation measures that will ensure all communities have sufficient water supplies. These activities will ensure farmers plan and prepare for severe drought and permanently bans wasteful practices like hosing off sidewalks and driveways.

“The last few years provided the wake-up call of all wake-up calls that water is precious and not to be taken for granted,” Felicia Marcus, chairwoman of the State Water Resources Control Board, said. “Californians rose to the occasion collectively during the drought. We can build on that success and now prepare for a more unpredictable and disruptive future marked by a changing climate – and do it equitably and cost effectively.”

The plan represents a shift from statewide mandates to a set of conservation standards applied based on local circumstances, including population, temperature, leaks, and types of commercial and industrial use. For example, communities in hotter and drier climate zones will receive irrigation allowances that reflect evaporation levels.

Key water conservation efforts included in the plan include a permanent bans on wasteful practices, such as hosing driveways and excessively watering lawns; technical assistance and financial incentives for water suppliers to implement leak prevention, detection and repair programs; collecting information about innovative water conservation and water loss detection and control technologies; requiring agricultural water suppliers to quantify water use in their service areas and describe measures to increase water use efficiency; full compliance with water use targets for urban water suppliers by 2025 and planning and preparing for continued and future drought and water shortages.

Some of the actions described in the draft plan will require working

with the legislature on new and expanded state authority, while others can be implemented under existing authorities. All recommendations aim to achieve the main objectives of the governor’s Executive Order B-37- 16 to use water more wisely, to eliminate water waste, to strengthen local drought resilience and to improve agricultural water use efficiency and drought planning.

In addition to taking action to implement this long-term water conservation plan, state agencies recognize the reality that most of California potentially faces a sixth year of historic drought.

Therefore, in January the state water board will also consider whether it must extend its existing emergency water conservation regulations, as required by Governor Brown’s recent executive order. The state water board has already taken action to maintain mandatory reductions in communities that could not verify they have enough water supplies to withstand three more years of severe drought.

The plan, entitled “Making Water Conservation a California Way of Life, Implementing Executive Order B-37-16,” is the result of extensive community and stakeholder engagement across California. The plan was prepared by the Department of Water Resources, the State Water Resources Control Board, the Public Utilities Commission, Department of Food and Agriculture and the Energy Commission. For more information on the development of the draft plan, visit www.water. ca.gov/wateruseefficiency/conservation/#_blank.

The state encourages the public to submit comments on the draft plan. Comments should be submitted to wue@water.ca.gov no later than Dec.19, 2016. Public comments will be posted at www.water.ca.gov/ wateruseefficiency/conservation/ comments.cfm.

He said he took down nine diseased cottonwoods on this property in LRE, with this tree being the biggest and most difficult since it leaned toward the house on the property. Brown removed the tree in sections from the top down with the aid of a 40-foot lift since a fence and a well tank were also things to be considered.

completely legalizing marijuana for recreational use as well. Whether my reader views this as good or bad, the fact still remains that without a new amendment to the Constitution this issue remains a state issue.

States’ refusal to implement the Real ID Act, passed in 2005, which established new federal standards for state-issued driver’s licenses, is a form of nullification as well.

When enough states say no, the feds back away. In 2013, nine State Sheriffs’ Associations put the Executive and Legislative Branches on notice that they support the traditional interpretation of the 2nd Amendment of the Bill of Rights and 336 elected county sheriffs inferred that they would protect their people on this issue— even against federal agents coming into their counties. Barack Obama and the Justice Department backed away.

The use of marijuana, and the ID Act are not within the scope of enumerated powers and thus belong to the states. President Obama’s reinterpretation of the second Amendment rightfully was ignored by the states. Health, education and marriage, or anything remotely like unto them, cannot be found in the Constitution as federal powers and thus, as per Amendment 10, remain state functions only—regardless of what five rogue justices on the Supreme Court may rule. Any other interpretation would lead the federal government to legislate anything

it wished, end federalism (dual government), and in time destroy all the other checks and balances in the Constitution.

Now California is using the doctrine of nullification to defy federal law on immigration, as it rules itself a sanctuary state. The problem is immigration is clearly constitutionally left to the federal government alone. Article I, Section 8, Clause 4 gives the federal government the right, “To establish a uniform Rule of Naturalization.” It has and thus states cannot defy it. Moreover, eight of the 18 clauses listed as the powers of Congress deal with national security and border security defines even the existence of a nation. The Constitution puts an end to the issue in Article 6: “This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; … shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.”

reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

So states can refuse to obey federal law and should do so to keep the federal government from absorbing the jurisdiction left to them, “powers not delegated” to the federal government. Remember our Founders created a system of dual governance between the states and the federal government with neither being master or slave.

Founding Fathers Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton were each especially vocal with respect to states having the authority to “Just Say No!” to federal law not enumerated. Such was used in 1798 in the Kentucky and Virginia Resolves, in 1832 in the Nullification Crisis in South Carolina, and more successfully with the northern states, especially Wisconsin, in 1854 over the highly unconstitutional Fugitive Slave Act. More recently the 10th Amendment, and resulting Doctrine of Nullification, first strongly implied in the Constitution and then more firmly stated in the 10th Amendment, is being used by states to prevent the federal government’s overreach of enumerated powers.

Thirty states and the District of Columbia currently have laws legalizing marijuana in some form, usually medical, openly defying federal law and on Nov. 8, California, Massachusetts, and Nevada joined Alaska, Oregon, Washington and Colorado

A Christmas stolen Mallard Fudd SPECIAL TO ANZA VALLEY OUTLOOK

Years ago, in Anza, California, my wife and I had a small business. In those days having a small business in Anza was a tough proposition, It was hard to get and build an inventory as everything had to come from “off the Hill” undoubtedly the worst time was in the winter. Trade slowed down, taxes were due and then off course there was the thought of how are we going to buy for the kids and loved ones at Christmas?

On this particular year, we had had a great summer of sales and had been able to save some money it was going to be the best Christmas in years and we were very excited to be able to do it. So, about a month before Christmas we jumped into the car an went off the hill. We spent the entire day shopping and had the car loaded with gifts. We were heading home and remembered that we had forgotten to get one important gift so we stopped at a mall that was on

CHRISTMAS from page A-1 came up will the idea to start a nonprofit that would invite and involve of all the area church ladies. She hoped that FTH would become a vehicle for the community to come together to do something tangible and make a difference in the lives of its neediest children.

Ten years later, they are well organized with two annual rummage sales, an annual holiday dinner and monthly luncheons that fund their yearly endeavors. Since its conception in 2006 the group has yearly hosted a Back to School event in August providing backpacks stuffed with school supplies, new shoes and a haircut. In the spring, they choose two college bound seniors to receive a laptop. The group also awards a scholarship to an outgoing senior. One of their largest endeavors every year is the FTH Christmas Gift Giveaway.

The group also puts on a Christmas Party for all area children as well.

The Christmas Gift Giveaway involves great pre-planning. This year’s Christmas Gift Giveaway is headed up by FTH’s new President Christi James assisted by Wanda Crawford. Around September, the word goes out to local churches and area organizations to see who is able to participate. Then the local schools and churches give FTH a list of pre-picked families. Each child gets a choice of two presents; a want and a need. All that information is then transformed onto individual cutout red paper angels.

The angels then are passed out to the participating groups whose members have a chance to pick which angel wishes they would like to fulfill.

On Dec. 15, the FTH ladies were still going strong and in the middle

the way home and went in to get the last gift.

Walking out of the mall and into the parking lot we were figuring out where we had parked the car. I went to the aisle where it had been parked but it wasn’t there. Maybe I had picked the wrong aisle? So, we began searching for our car. After about 30 minutes of searching the terrible truth struck us. Our car had been stolen and with all our Christmas in it. I ran back into the mall and found a security officer and told him what had happened and he called the police.

We sat outside the mall, my wife in tears when it had finally sunk in. We called a friend in Anza and he was kind enough to come and give us a ride home. Empty. Betrayed, heartbroken we sat in our home for the next two days. One the third day we got a call from the police, they had found our car.

We went down to the impound lot and had to pay to get it released.

When I got into the car I found that the steering column had been hit with something and the ignition of organizing the Christmas Giveaway event to be held that night at 6 p.m. at the Shepard of the Valley Lutheran Church where families picked up their gift bags.

Tammy Marana and Wanda Crawford have been involved since FTH’s start.

“I thank God I can give back to others,” said Marana when asked about her longevity with the group.

Crawford said what she loves about FTH is the chance to be “Giving back to the community and those that are less fortunate.”

Marilyn Smith joined in 2007 soon after her husband died in 2006, to meet people and to get herself out of the house.

“I love FTH because I can give back to the community,” she said.

Newcomers like Marta Spencer and Marie Ghysels heard about FTH when Christi James visited their Sacred Heart’s Women’s Guild and shared what FTH was all about which inspired the group to get involved.

Shepard of the Valley Lutheran Church Pastor Doug Francik will soon will be retiring. His wife Earlene, who just retired from teaching kindergarten at Grace Lutheran in Escondido where the couple lives, were on hand helping the FTH ladies. This will be their last opportunity to do so as the couple plans to move in June to the Midwest to live closer to their children.

“This is my last year and this has been just a wonderful experience for me as a pastor to be able to watch the giving from this community to all these children,” Pastor Doug said. “What a blessing From The Heart is! I thank the Lord for them and their group.”

This year 12 groups participated in gift giving; Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Anza Valley Christian

removed, I started it with a screwdriver thinking “that is how he started it.” There was still the odor of the man’s sweat in the car as he had labored to break the ignition.

Of course, everything was gone, even my coat that I had left in the car. We drove home. Christmas was gone and it was the middle of winter and just before Christmas and tax time the absolutely worst time of the year for business. We finally got around to discussing what was missing. All the gifts, my coat and even some Christian music that was in the car. If you’re going to be a thief why steal Christian music? We decided that there was no real option but to have a Christmas dinner and gather with our family. That after all was what was important. Still we felt not only robbed but somehow violated.

We went on for several days in a gloom, but trying to feel better.

Business was historically nonexistent and a couple of more days passed. Then two weeks before Christmas the phone rang, first in the morning then again in the

afternoon. Two jobs had come in and miracle of miracles both need the work to be done immediately.

Both were good paying jobs and both wanted to pay cash as soon as they were done. Working very hard we finished both jobs and got paid for them a week before Christmas.

We jumped into our stolen car and went shopping.

We were able to replace our entire Christmas exactly, including the last gift and I was even able to buy a new coat and get the car fixed. This of course gave us a lot to think about. We had always tried to be good hard working people and Christians but was that the reason? It didn’t seem so being a Christian doesn’t prevent bad things from happening. We finally decided that although a thief had stolen our children’s gifts that even if they sold them to others eventually those gifts would probably end up in the hands of children, it just made sense. And the Christian music? Thrown away?

Making sure the presents get in the right family’s bag are Becca James, GeriLynn Mellin and Sally Bayless.

Fellowship, Valley Gospel Chapel, Emerging Love Fellowship, Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church, Calvary Chapel High Country, Living Hope Fellowship, Hamilton High School and Hamilton K-8, TOPS, Rancho Chapel and Lake Hemet Campground. More than 160 families were helped this year during Christmastime and approximately 425-plus children received gifts. FTH truly touches lives; each one on an individual basis -one child at a time.

FTH leadership wants said new members are always welcome.

Their fundraising luncheons are held at Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church on the second Saturday of month at noon, lunch is $5. Each meeting hosts a special speaker, usually from the community. Their first meeting of the year is scheduled for Jan. 14, 2017, and the special speaker will be Food for the Faithful’s Esther Barragan.

Food for the Faithful is a local food pantry so bring a can of food for their food drive.

Young Maddie James goes through the Families Christmas list.

CASE #: INP 1600898 1. To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both of SHIRLEY JEAN MEEHAN. 2. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Shawnn Lee Balzer in the Superior Court of California, County of Riverside.

3. The Petition for Probate requests that Shawnn Lee Balzer be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

5. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Ace. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

6. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 1-11-17 Time: 8:45A.M. Dept. 1-A Address of court: 46-200 Oasis St., Indio, CA 92201 7. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

8. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the person representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

9. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (Form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
