Emmy Award-winningvocalist Nancy James willperform next month to helpraise money for scholar-ship funds at Elder and Se-ton High Schools.

James, a longtime WestSider who lives in GreenTownship, has been a famil-iar face and voice through-out the Tristate since hercareer was launched threedecades ago on the “BobBraun Show.”

and the Middletown Sym-phony, in a salute to Rose-mary Clooney.

The benefit concert be-gins at 8 p.m. Saturday,Sept. 1, in the Seton Perfor-mance Hall, 3901 GlenwayAve., Price Hill.

“This show is a musicallove letter to RosemaryClooney,” James said.

“It tells the story of herlife and her music.”

She said she and DeLe-one started performing thesalute to Clooney about ayear ago, and they’veplayed to sold out venues inKentucky and Ohio. This isthe first time the show isbeing presented on theWest Side, James said.

“It’s always so much funto perform at home on theWest Side,” she said.

Proceeds from the showwill go directly to The Da-vid Allen Scholarship at El-der and The Sister LorettaMarie Auer MemorialScholarship at Seton.

James said she and Al-

used to bring Elder’s gleeclub to perform on the“Bob Braun Show” aroundChristmas time.

“I think the world ofhim,” James said.

“Dave is the music manon the West Side, and hegives so much back to thecommunity.

“I wanted to make surethe scholarship continuesand allows more studentsan opportunity to be underhis tutelage,” she said.

The show lasts about 90minutes, and she said pho-tos of Clooney will scrollacross the large projectionscreen as she and DeLeoneperform.

James said pianist SteveSchmidt, trombonist BillGemmer, guitarist BradMeyers and bass playerMike Scharfe, who touredwith Clooney, will accom-pany her and DeLeone onstage.

She said she hopes peo-ple pack the performancehall in support of the schol-arship funds, and that theyenjoy the concert.

“It’s a wonderful piecethat has its own set of legs,”James said.

Ed Flick has weighedand tallied pull tabs fromaluminum cans for nearlynine years.

Every couple of months,after he’s weighed andfilled several jars withtabs, he drives up to theRonald McDonald Houseand donates the tabs to thecharitable organization.

He’s made the trip nu-merous times over the pastseveral years, but the onehe made in early July wasespecially satisfying.

The load of tabs thePrice Hill-Western HillsKiwanis Club memberturned in last monthmarked the club’s donationof one million tabs to theRonald McDonald HouseCharities of Greater Cin-cinnati.

“We started collectingin September 2003,” saidFlick, a Cleves resident.

“Our goal was to get onemillion. It took us a while,but we made it.

“I couldn’t wait to getback and tell the club,” hesaid.

Flick said the RonaldMcDonald House turns thetabs in for cash and usesthe money to help providefamilies with a home awayfrom home while their chil-dren are hospitalized atCincinnati Children’s Hos-pital Medical Center.

Tonya Pate, spokes-woman for the Ronald Mc-Donald House, said the or-ganization raised $16,500 in2010 from its tab collectionprogram, and in 2011 theyset a record by earning$19,000.

Flick said he isn’t surewhere he read or heard

about the Ronald McDon-ald House’s tab recyclingprogram, but he said whenhe presented the idea tocollect tabs to the club ev-eryone agreed to pitch in.

Every Tuesday the clubmeets, members bring inbags of pull tabs from allvarieties of aluminumcans. The Women’s Con-nection in Price Hill hasalso been a big contributor .

He said it takes 1,552tabs to equal 1 pound oftabs. Since the club startedcollecting he said they’veturned in 645 pounds oftabs to the Ronald McDon-ald House. And now thatthey have reached theirone million goal he saidthey’ve decided to try tocollect 1 million more.

“Hopefully it goes a lit-tle faster this time,” Flicksaid.

Thanks a million, KiwanisBy Kurt [email protected]

Her parents had theirdoubts as well.

“When they called totell me, my mom thoughtit was a scam and didn’twant to give me thephone,” Maucher said.“Now she’s pretty excit-ed.”

Edith Lefever, hermom, admits suspicionwas her first reaction.

“You can’t hardly be-lieve it,” Lefever said.“It’s like winning the lot-tery or something. Theyare paying for every-thing.”

The pair don’t knowwhat events they will beseeing, but both said theywould love to see diving orgymnastics. Mom saysshe would love to see acastle and the changing ofthe guard.

Maucher has flown toWashington, D.C. but hermom is not as well-trav-eled. “I have never flown

CHEVIOT — Folks who haven’tbeen to the Cheviot MemorialFieldhouse in a while may notrecognize it the next time theyvisit.

The baseball fields and otheramenities at the Fieldhouse havebeen completely renovated cour-tesy of the Reds CommunityFund and Procter & GambleNorth America Marketing.

Roughly 425 volunteers fromP&G and the Reds CommunityFund scattered about the parkThursday, Aug. 2, to upgrade thefacilities as part of the Reds Com-munity Fund’s 2012 Home FieldMakeover project.

Preparation work for the reno-vation began earlier this springwith support from the CincinnatiReds field vendors and membersof the Reds grounds crew.

The three baseball diamondsat the Fieldhouse, including themain field featuring the historicgrandstands, received infieldrestorations, new fencing andbackstops, field grading, fieldleveling and new infield dirt andgrass. The grandstand, whichdates back to the 1930s, had itsseating repaired and received anew roof and a fresh coat of paint.

“It’s incredible,” said CheviotMayor Samuel Keller.

“The Reds Community Fundand P&G will be able to do morefor the city of Cheviot in one day

than we’ve been able to do in thelast 20 years.”

Volunteers who turned out forthe day-long project installednew pitchers mounds, batter box-es, dugout benches and bases.They also set up a new play-ground behind the CheviotBranch Library and painted theinside of the Cheviot MemorialBuilding.

Charley Frank, executive di-rector of the Reds CommunityFund, said the organization haspartnered with P&G for its HomeField Makeover program for thepast three years, and the projecthas evolved to become muchmore than the makeover of abaseball field.

When they look for sites to

renovate as part of the project,Frank said they look for a placesthat will have a significant im-pact on the community when therestoration is completed.

He said the history of theFieldhouse, its heavy use by bothyouth and adult athletic groupsand the fact it serves as a center-piece for community eventsmade it perfect for this year’smakeover.

“I was here for about five min-utes when I realized this wasprobably the best project wecould do in a decade,” he said.

“It’s fantastic.”Volunteering for the project

was particularly special for P&Gemployee Emily Osterkamp - shelives in Cheviot.

She said she’s been to theFieldhouse many times to watchher nieces’ and nephews’ games,and she said it’s really cool shecould help bring the fields back togood shape.

“I think it’s great I’m able to beout here to give back to my com-munity,” she said.

Keller said words can’t ex-press how grateful the city is forthe more than $250,000 the RedsCommunity Fund and P&G putinto the project, and that figuredoesn’t even include the volun-teer hours.

“Without the generous sup-port from the Reds and P&G, aproject of this magnitude wouldnot be possible,” he said.

SetonThe Saints return a solid core

of players from last year’s squadand will be under the directionof new coach Glenn Wauligman.

Sophomore Maggie Walrothreturns and takes over the No. 1singles position. Walroth placedsecond at sectionals and quali-fied for districts in doubles lastseason.

“Maggie was the runner-up inthe MET (tournament) at 16 andunder and is a real solid player,”Wauligman said. “She should doreally well this season.”

Three returning seniors areNicole Nie, Melanie Autenrieband Anna Stagge. Nie and Auten-rieb played No. 1 doubles lastseason, but Wauligman isn’tquite sure where they will playthis season yet.

“We have a solid nucleus,”Wauligman said. “We have a sol-id pack after losing four seniors,but have four returning varsityplayers.”

The Saints will get some helpfrom a group of girls who were apart of the junior varsity team

last season, including Waulig-man’s daughter Macy, who was13-6 and played No. 1 singles lastseason on JV. In addition, seniorEmily Hoffmeyer, who playedNo. 3 singles for the junior varsi-ty team, will join the varsitysquad this year.

Even with the loss oftheir top two runners froma year ago, the Panthers re-turn an experienced groupin 2012 with seven of theirtop eight runners being ju-niors or seniors.

Seniors Jake Fields,Kevin Laiveling, AdamLipps and Jeremy Ries-

kamp will lead the squad.Laiveling and Lipps are theco-captains for 2012.

“We need to developsome front runners,” coachSteven Spencer said, “but(we) should have good com-petition for our top sevenspots.”

Russo enters his 30th sea-son leading the Lancers insomewhat unfamiliar terri-tory.

After finishing third inthe Greater CatholicLeague South, fourth in theDivision I district and ninthin its 25th consecutive re-gional appearance – to saynothing of sending DrewMichael to state as an indi-vidual – La Salle faces a re-building year.

“For the first time inmaybe 20 years, this is not aseason where we reload,but it’s truly a rebuildingyear for us,” Russo said.“It’s a year we’re going to

have to be patient develop-ing our younger guys andchallenging our older guysto run the best they can.”

The Lancers have a sol-id foundation on which tobegin rebuilding. SeniorJake McNamara was thirdin the GCL last season.Classmate Zach Stross wasa top-five runner for theLancers before injury kepthim out of the district andregional meets. Junior Ste-phen Babcock was the sev-enth man most of last sea-son.

Senior Ryan McPhillipand juniors Andy Corneliusand Adam Kluesner shouldchallenge for the varsityrotation, along with sopho-mores Devon Schuermanand Simon Weyer. Fresh-men Brad Annaken and

Patrick Crase could crackthe top seven, with class-mates Nate Leinhart andJason Handley addingsome depth.

their top two runners froma year ago. Senior BlakeMeyer finished 33rd in thestate last year and coachJoe Zeinner expects bigthings again this season.

They return three solidplayers in junior HannahSmith and Kristina andElizabeth Staley, all whomwill play singles. Elizabethwill start the season at theNo. 1 position, while Kristi-na, the lone senior on theteam, will be at No. 2 andSmith at No. 3. Elizabeth, ajunior, has held on to theNo.1position since she wasa freshman.

“She is solid and worksreally hard,” second-yearcoach Mary Beth Wiegmansaid about Elizabeth. “Sheplays a lot of summer tour-naments and is seriousabout her game. She is verycommitted.”

Behind the three, Wieg-man said her team is inex-perienced but having fun.

“A lot of the girls arejust learning,” she said.“They are great kids whoare working hard andlearning. I have a lot ofgirls with differentstrengths and weaknesses,

so I am still trying to figurethings out.”

Oak HillsThere is a lot riding on

the performance of theHighlanders’ doubles play-ers. With senior Emma Wil-helmus and sophomoreMadison Thomas in the No.1and 2 singles positions, re-spectively, and AbigailRembold in the No. 3 posi-tion, coach Tom Cormanlikes where he stands as faras singles go.

“I’m optimistic becauseI think our first three sin-

gles will be pretty good,” hesaid. “It’s going to dependon how our doubles per-form.”

They get the season un-derway Aug. 14 at Milford.

TaylorUnder first-year coach

Travis Glacken, the YellowJackets return two seniorsin Lizzy Puck and KirstinKempf. “I believe we canput together a good, com-petitive top seven,” Glack-en said. “That is all I cansay.” The Yellow Jacketsstart Aug. 14 at Ross.

Senior Ross Frondorfis right on Meyer’s heels,according Zeinner, and isjust as hungry to get tostate as a senior. Alongwith senior Mitch Bis-choff, their goal is to takethe entire Highlanderteam to the state meet thisseason.

The Lady Highlanderswill run out a young teamin 2012, led by sophomoreB’s Frondorf, juniorCourtney Wiesman andfreshman Sydney Kil-gore.

“They are really hardworkers,” coach ShellieHageman said. “B’s playson the soccer team as wellso during the summer sheis doing double duty alongwith basketball condition-ing. Courtney is very con-sistent and reliable andboth have put in a lot ofmiles this summer.”

The one to keep youreye on is Kilgore, who willstart the season as the No.1 runner for Hageman’ssquad. She won the Great-er Miami Conference andthe city championship asan eighth-grader and wassecond at the middleschool state champion-ships.

“She is a very talentedrunner,” Hageman said.“She ran under 12 minutesin the two mile and I lookfor her as a top10 contend-er in the state as a fresh-men.”

Mother of MercyThe Bobcats’ top run-

ner Emma Hatch is backfor her junior year, after

becoming the youngestBobcat to qualify for statelast year. After playingbasketball the past twoseasons, she has decidedto dedicate 100 percent ofher time to cross countrythis year.

Including Hatch, theBobcats return six of theirtop seven runners from ayear ago. Two other run-ners who coach Scott Rid-der expects to make a bigimpact are Melina Art-mayer and CourtneyKurzhals.

SetonThe Saints’ coach could

not be reached for com-ment, but the team lost itstop runner Anna Pace tograduation. According totheir 2012-13 roster, theyreturn three All-GirlsGreater CincinnatiLeague selections in sen-iors Shelby Fritsch andEmily Heine, and juniorAbby Pace.

The Saints get the sea-son underway Aug. 24 atthe Moeller Primetime In-vitational.

TaylorThe Yellow Jackets and

coach Carrie Stecher re-turn three runners in sen-iors Spencer Craig andAlex Griffin along withsophomore Chad Mason.

“All three had greattrack seasons,” Stechersaid. “Hopefully it cantranslate into the (crosscountry) season.”

The girls team, alsocoached by Stecher, re-turns regional qualifierMcKenzie McDaniel.

“I’m hoping this yearshe can go to state, thatwould be awesome,”Stecher said. “She is run-ning faster than she everhas before.”

CINCINNATI — The Se-ton Saints return three var-sity golfers from their 2011squad, but will look to fillthe void left by Molly Ar-nold and Sarah Banfill whograduated.

“We are going to missthem,” coach Peggy Kortesaid. “They were very con-sistent and excellent golf-ers.”

Seniors Andrea Toth,Sarah Macke and EmilieMattei, along with juniorCorrine Dutenberg, are ex-pected to lead the Saints in2012.

The Saints have been onthe brink of breakingthrough the past two sea-sons. In 2010, they misseddistricts by three strokes,and went 13-2 in 2011 butdidn’t play their best at sec-

tionals and failed to make itback to districts.

“Our goal is to get pastdistricts and we are eventalking state,” Korte said.“We have to or why elsewould you be playing?”

Korte increased the off-season training to betterprepare her squad by goingthrough a lot of lessons,mainly with things playerscould do around theirhouses before the weatherbroke . Once spring hit, hergirls got out on the courseand many took part in theCincinnati Women’s GolfAssociation tournamentsto play against some quali-ty competition.

“Seton golf has reallycome a long way,” Kortesaid. “We are so close, so wedecided to go full force thiswinter and start early andget the girls thinking golf.It’s kind of like what thepowerhouse schools do andhopefully we achieve whatwe want to achieve.”

In March of 2001, EileenMallory, then the director ofthe Covedale library, began abook club at the Covedalelibrary. She immediately andunreservedly included myhusband, Robert, and me in thegroup by selecting books thatwere available in audio formatand by making sure we had aride to the monthly book club.

Eileen also wanted to in-clude people who typicallyread books in print and whohad to drive their own carsrather than being chauffeured.Agreeing with Eileen that weshould include sighted peoplein the book club was a toughdecision to make given theirbeing so challenged in so manyways.

People who are blind tend tobe more resourceful, morecapable, more intelligent,kinder, more patient, moreunderstanding, and, of course,

much better looking than theirsighted counterparts are. But,Eileen, being one of thosesighted people herself, said weshould be charitable and real-ize that they cannot help whothey are.

Well, Robert and I, thoughsuperior in most ways to oursighted counterparts, agreedwith Eileen that they should beincluded in the Covedale BookClub. After all, we should givethem the opportunity to broad-en their narrow horizons andlearn from us. Maybe, includ-ing people who are sighted inthe book club would have somebenefits for us as well.

The Covedale Book Club isnow in its 11th year, and wehave read a wide variety ofauthors including Anne Tyler,Pat Conroy, Ken Follett, BillBryson, Sue Monk Kidd, andJodi Picoult. No doubt we alllearned a lot from one another

in our dis-cussions, inpart, becauseof our diversi-ty.

If peoplewho are blindor who haveother dis-abilities aremissing fromyour book

club, prayer group, card club,or any group to which youbelong; maybe someone veryimportant is missing fromyour club or group.

From the Covedale BookClub’s very beginning, Eileenwelcomed and included Robertand me in every way. She se-lected book titles that werealso always available in audioformat. She made sure we hada ride to and from the bookclub each month and madesure we were included in the

discussion. Robert and I can-not thank Eileen enough forthe feeling of inclusion wehave felt as members as theCovedale Book Club for 11years.

If you believe certain state-ments in this article such asthat people who are blind aremore capable, more patient,more intelligent; you definitelydo have very important peoplemissing from your clubs andgroups. We are pretty muchthe same as other people areexcept that we have a fewdifferent circumstances withwhich to cope, a fact that givesus some advantages and somedisadvantages.

Of course, the fact that weare much better looking thansighted people are cannot bedenied!

The Bottoms is an old neigh-borhood that started at PublicLanding and went up to SixthStreet. It also took in WalnutStreet east to the foot of MountAdams. It is where Cincinnatibegan.

Cincinnati’s progress wasslow until 1811 when the steam-boat started landing there. Acollection of warehouses, man-ufacturing plants, and retailstores, hotels, railroad sta-tions, churches and saloonsresulted.

By 1900 mechanized trans-portation caused rich people tomove from the crowded,smelly city to the suburbs.That left poor people and im-migrants from Lebanon, Ire-

land, Japan,China, Ger-many andItaly. Therewere manyhistoric build-ings, likePennsylvaniaRailroadStation, Spen-cer HouseHotel, PearlStreet Market

and the many tenements build-ings.

The residents were veryreligious and there were manychurches, mostly Catholic. Thelargest was the St. Xaviercomplex on Sycamore betweenSixth and Seventh. It contained

a church, a grade school, acommercial school for girls,Notre Dame Academy, XavierHigh School, and Xavier Uni-versity.

There were three Irishchurches: the Church of theAtonement stood on both Thirdand Fourth streets; St. Thomasstood on Sycamore Street atCuts Alley; Sacred Heart, theItalian church, now in CampWashington, was at Sixth andBroadway.

St. Anthony of Padua, theLebanese church, now on Vic-tory Parkway, was on ThirdStreet. St. Philomena, a Ger-man church, was located onPearl Street until the steeplefell on the candy store. Then it

moved to Third Street.Besides the Catholic

churches there was the Pente-costal Church on Third Street,the Methodist Church on PearlStreet, the A.M.E. Allen Tem-ple on Sycamore, and WesleyChapel on Fifth Street. TheChrist Church on east FourthStreet is the only one left.

Children were safe in thebottoms. The gatekeeper at theTaft’s house watched out forthem. They could go to theEmery Theater at CentralParkway and Walnut to re-hearse and act in operettas.

You paid off your mortgage,but there is still a lien on yourproperty.

There seems to be a rash ofthis happening nowadays. Aftera recent board meeting, a fellowboard member came over to meand asked if I would check therecorder’s office records, to seeif a local bank had filed a mort-gage release on his church’sproperty since they had paid offtheir mortgage some monthsback.

After checking the HamiltonCounty Recorder’s Office rec-ords, I noted when the mortgagewas filed, but no release hadbeen filed. I informed my fellowboard member of my findingand suggested he contact hischurch’s bank where they hadpaid off their mortgage.

I have had two other individ-uals contact me this past yearwith similar circumstances. Onehad refinanced their homewhere the closing agent sent thepayoff up to their previousmortgage company, which failedto file a release. The secondindividual had paid off theirmortgage and their mortgagecompany never filed a release oftheir mortgage.

Under Section 5301.36 “Entryof Satisfaction,” the mortgagecompany has 90 days from thedate of the satisfaction of aresidential mortgage to recordthe satisfaction in the countyrecorder’s office, and pay any

fees required.If the mort-

gage companyfails to comply,the mortgagormay recover, ina civil action,damages of$250.

The record-er’s office isprobably one of

the least known about offices,yet one of the most importantcounty offices. Without the workof the county recorder in re-cording, organizing and safekeeping all documents in a com-petent and legal manner, itwould be nearly impossible topurchase land and be assured ofa clear title or to lend moneywith land as security.

If you would like to check ona payoff, the Hamilton CountyRecorder’s Office is at 138 E.Court St., Room 205, Cincinnati,OH 45202.

You may wish to check ourwebsiterecordersoffice.hamilton-co.org,before coming downtown forpreliminary document informa-tion. You may have to visit theoffice to see the document im-age though. Copies of the docu-ments are available for $2 perpage when assisted, and 25 centsself service.

In early spring, weplanted red and Yukongold baking potatoes. It

has beenfun diggingup “buriedtreasure,”especiallyfor thelittle ones.They arealwayssurprisedto see somany pota-toes come

from one plant. And inspite of the heat, potatoesare one crop that havegrown really well. Today Imade a batch of potatopancakes to go along withour bacon and eggs. Andour corn is finally in aftermonths of loving carefrom my husband, Frank.We grow Silver Queen andlike to eat it simply withbutter and salt. Our grand-son, Luke, loves it withmayo and hot sauce - gofigure!

Rita’s potatopancakes

Adding baking sodagives these a bit of a lift. Ifyou like, use frozen shred-ded hash browns, thawedand drained very well.

5-6 cups shredded potatoes,drained very well

1 yellow onion, minced fine2 eggs, lightly beaten2 teaspoons salt1 teaspoon pepper3-4 tablespoons flour1 teaspoon baking soda

Mix potatoes with onionand eggs. Stir in season-ings, flour and soda. Heat¼-inch oil in skillet overmedium-high heat. Makemounds of potatoes in

skillet and flatten. Cookuntil golden brown on bothsides and cooked through.

Blue Ribbonchocolate zucchinibread/cake

I get lots of requestsfor this when zucchiniseason is in. For Marilyn,an Eastgate reader, andLawrence, a Kentuckyreader, this is in my “Reci-pe Hall of Fame.” A crossbetween bread and cake. Aversion of this won firstprize at our fair -it’s thatgood.

1½ cups shredded zucchini(squeeze moisture outbefore measuring)

1 cup flour½ cup unsweetened good

quality cocoa, sifted1 teaspoon baking soda¼ teaspoon baking powder¼ teaspoon salt1½ teaspoons cinnamon or

less if you like¼ teaspoon allspice½ cup canola oil½ cup sugar½ cup light brown sugar (if

all you have is dark, that’sokay)

2 large eggs1-2 teaspoons vanilla¾ to 1 cup semi-sweet

chocolate chips (mini

chips are nice)

Preheat oven to 350.Spray 9-inch by 5-inch loafpan. Set aside shreddedzucchini. Whisk togetherflour, cocoa, baking soda,baking powder, salt, cinna-mon and allspice. Setaside. Beat oil, sugars,eggs and vanilla until wellblended, and fold in zuc-chini. Add flour mixture,mixing just until com-bined. Fold in chips. Bakeuntil toothpick inserteddeep in center comes outclean, 55 to 65 minutes.Cool 10 minutes on wirerack, then remove.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

In this recipe, measurecocoa, then sift. If a recipesays “sifted cocoa pow-der,” etc., then sift beforemeasuring.

Easy no-silkmicrowaved corn inhusk

I first heard about thislast year. Polly Campbelljust wrote about it, so Itried this method. Itworks, though I still like toboil my corn with a bit ofhoney added to water.Anyway, leave corn un-husked, and for each earmicrowave on high 4 min-utes or so. Corn will behot, so be careful. Cut offbottom, grab top andshake corn out vertically.It will be clean with nosilk!

vory. Thanks to all in-cluding Christy, Kim B.,Francy J., Grace K., CarolF., Pam C., Susan B., CarolW., Melanie F., Jan B. andWanda D., among others.Recipes goes way back tothe ‘70s!

DELHI TOWNSHIP —Quick thinking at the Del-shire Swim Club helpedrescue a man July 25.

Brian Stolze of DelhiTownship was swimming atthe club with his 12-year-old son Cody when he suf-fered a seizure while in thewater.

The quick action by hisson, three lifeguards and anurse helped save his life.

Around 3 p.m., Briansuffered the seizure whilein the water. To the life-guards and some others atthe pool, it looked for a sec-ond like horseplay.

“I was in the chair and Ithought it was wrestling,”said lifeguard JackieRaabe, 16, of Bridgetown.“But then I saw his eyeswere back into his head.”

Raabe also noticed thatCody was holding his dad’shead above the water.

At that time anotherlifeguard Johnny Eby, 16,ran to call paramedics, andMark Lamping, 16, ran toget a backboard.

Then a nurse at the pooljumped in.

“I just happened to behere and do what any nursewould do,” said Jill McNa-mare of Bridgetown. “Thelittle boy (Cody) did anawesome job to keep hishead up. The lifeguardswere quick to act in gettinghim out of the water. Hewas on a backboard and outof the water in a few min-utes.”

McNamare said it ap-peared Brian swallowed alot of water, and she couldhear gurgling. He had bluelips and was combative atfirst, but after about five

minutes he could followsimple commands.

“The lifeguards had ex-cellent training. They dideverything they were sup-posed to do,” she said.

Another swimmer, Da-vid Baldrick of Delhi Town-ship, said Cody saved hisfather.

“The kid, in all honesty,without him, it could havebeen worse.

“It almost brought me totears.”

Sheryl Stolze, a DelshireSwim Club board memberwho was working at theclub, is Brian’s sister-in-law and Cody’s aunt. “(Co-dy) did an incredible job

first, and the lifeguards didan awesome job.

“Just to see the quick ac-tion and quick thinking wasgreat,” she said. “Theywere truly amazing.”

Lifeguard Eby said thiswas not the first time he’shad to act quickly. He wasworking once when a mandove into the shallow endand knocked himself out.For Raabe, it was her first“full-out save.” Both havebeen lifeguards for twoyears.

Brian was doing finelate Thursday afternoon,according to Stolze. He wasbeing kept at the hospitalfor observation.

Neighborhood com-munity garden leaders inWalnut Hills, College Hilland Over-the-Rhineagreed to host and main-tain AARP Giving Gar-dens through a grantprocess inspired by Wal-nut Hills’ resident La-Donna Pope.

Pope sparked the idealast summer when shetold AARP about her ef-forts in Walnut Hills.

The garden providesexercise and social en-gagement, says Pope, butshe also donates extravegetables to help feedneighbors. AARP Ohiosought to build upon theidea and connected withWesley Community Ser-vices.

In return for hostingthe giving gardens,AARP members providevolunteer labor to install/prep the giving gardensand the necessary ma-

terials, including lumber,soil, and tools.

The garden, in part-nership with PleasantHill Academy, includesthree AARP Giving Gar-dens and only will pro-vide tomatoes for thisfirst year.

Other gardens willprovide a different arrayof vegetables. The part-nership between WesleyCommunity Services,AARP Ohio and the localcommunity gardens is amulti-year effort, withhopes to expand in 2013 toinclude more participat-ing community gardens.

Katy Samuels said peo-ple constantly tell her andher brother, Scott Berding,they made a great move bystarting their business.

The West Side brotherand sister team foundedMemories of Loved Ones, asmall business specializingin creating commemora-tive collages and displaysfor funerals, weddings, an-niversaries, graduationsand other milestone cele-brations.

“We feel we offer a veryunique service,” said Sam-uels, who grew up in DelhiTownship and now lives inGreen Township.

The idea for their busi-ness was inspired by afriend of theirs who theymiss very much, she said.

Samuels and Berdingworked together in the in-formation technology fieldfor many years, and in July2004 their friend and col-league, Keith Noble, diedsuddenly while on vacationwith his family. Samuelssaid she and her brother de-cided the best way to honortheir friend was to orga-nize a memorial golf outingand raise money for chari-ty.

She said they borrowedthe poster boards used atNoble’s funeral that fea-tured photographs chroni-cling his life and displayedthem near the registrationtable at the inaugural out-ing. The display was verypopular at the outing, andshe said everyone enjoyedlooking at all the photos ofhim. They brought theposter boards back for thesecond and third annual

outings, and they were themost popular feature at theoutings each year, she said.

Prior to the fourth annu-al outing, Samuels saidthey contacted Noble’swife to get the posterboards, but they were mis-placed when she moved to anew home. So, Samuelscontacted Noble’s sisterand borrowed as many pho-tos of him as she could tocreate digital scrapbookpages to display at the out-ing.

For the next fewmonths, she said peoplewere telling them left andright how beautiful the dis-play was.

“The feedback we re-ceived was so great,” Sam-uels said. “We began won-dering if there was anyone

who was offering this typeof service to grieving fam-ilies.”

She said when theycouldn’t find any, Memo-ries of Loved Ones wasborn.

They started the familybusiness in 2010, and havecontinually worked to im-prove their process and ex-pand their services.

Samuels said they meetface-to-face with everyfamily who requires theirservices, design personaland memorable collagesand displays and have themprofessionally framed sothey can be cherished foryears to come.

“It’s all about going theextra mile and making itpersonal. Our service setsus apart,” she said.

“Our goal is to not onlydesign something fantas-tic, but also give themsomething they can hangon their walls forever.”

Utilizing an RVequipped with computersand scanning equipment,she said they can drive to acustomer’s home and con-vert their favorite photo-graphs to digital images ina matter of hours, ensuringthe photos are not lost ordamaged.

In addition to funerals,she said they’ve designeddisplays for graduations,weddings, anniversaries,family reunions and corpo-rate events. They can alsocreate photo books andDVD slide shows.

As a way to give back tothe community, the busi-
