Showell Elementary School has won a State of Delaware award for exceptional student performance, based on improvement on standardized testing.The award comes with an $8,000 cash prize for additional educational resources for “recognition” schools, according to the state Department of Education. North Georgetown Elementary School was also recognized by the State for its support for special student populations. “We are overjoyed at having two of our schools honored as State Recognition Schools,” said Indian River School District Superintendent Jay Owens. “As superintendent, it’s always gratifying to have your schools recognized as being among the best in the state. I want to commend Phillip C. Showell Principal Christy Kerr and North Georgetown Principal Sarah Green and their staff for their tireless dedication to our students. Honors such as these are not possible without a tremendous amount of hard work and commitment from a gifted group of educators.” “We are very excited,” Kerr said. “The State has assessed our scores, and our staff See SHOWELL page 6

South Bethany reduces homeowner parking passes to two By Mike Smith Staff Reporter The South Bethany Town Council this week voted to reduce property owner parking passes from four per property to two, to address issues with beach parking. There are only 115 parking spaces at the South Bethany beach, and more than 2,600 parking passes were sold last year, resulting in $51,000 in revenue to the Town, according to Council Treasurer Randy Bartholomew. The new ordinance, as voted upon at the council meeting on Nov. 9, may mean a loss of about $16,000 in parking revenue, per the financial projection. However, sales of replacement passes could “bring us back to break-even for budget purposes,” ac-

cording to the treasurer. “The Town of South Bethany has amended Ordinance 211-23 and updated Chapter 94-6 of the town code parking permit system, to reduce the number of seasonal parking passes from four to a maximum of two per property,” noted Mayor Tim Saxton in introducing the motion. “We passed the ordinance to reduce parking passes from four to two for property owners,” Saxton said later. Visitors may still purchase a nonrefundable day parking pass for $20 at the kiosk outside of town hall at 402 Evergreen. Debate about the parking pass reduction ensued during the council meeting last Thursday. The original motion was brought by Councilman

Bob Biciocchi. “Let’s not let the perfect get in the way of the good,” he said at the meeting, about adjusting the parking supply and demand. The council member also addressed parking pass replacement issues, with residents and property owners able to purchase a single replacement pass per season. Saxton expressed concern for property owners who rent their homes and use real estate services to rent them. “Are we also going to limit the Realtors to one pass?” he inquired. Fewer than 20 percent of property owners in South Bethany are fulltime residents, according to the Town’s comprehensive plan. There are 748 properties in South Bethany, and 110 owners are listed as full-

time residents. The town council discussed a price of $200, as recommended by the Town’s finance team, for a replacement parking pass — the face value to have full-season parking access at the beach. “That $200 pricing is a little low for the market value,” said Saxton.

South Bethany saying ‘no’ to pot Like most of the area’s coastal towns, South Bethany also intends to create a prohibition on marijuana sales and use in public places, in response to a state law enacted this year that permits recreational use and possession of marijuana by adults 21 or older, and sets a framework for cultivation and sale of marijuana for recreational use. Marijuana may still be used in private within town limits, as authorized by the State. Dewey Beach banned marijuana sales within its town limits in June, with Bethany Beach and Rehoboth Beach following in August. The Town of Ocean View and Town of Fenwick Island passed bans in October. The Delaware Marijuana Control Act — the bill state legislators passed this spring to create a framework for the marijuana industry to distribute marijuana, does allow municipalities to prohibit marijuana sales, cultivation and product manufacturing within their limits. Saxton announced the first reading for Ordinance 212-23 to amend Chapters 84 and 145, prohibiting licensure of marijuana establishments, as well as businesses of marijuana cultivation, manufacturing, testing and sales. South Bethany had received public comment on the issue over the summer. “I refer you to the state law that allows municipalities to opt out on marijuana sales, cultivation, production and manufacturing,” said Saxton. “That should provide you with the answers,” as to how local governments can limit a state law within their jurisdictions. “The second and final reading of the South Bethany ban is in December, at the next council meeting,” he added.

SBPD updates South Bethany Police Chief Jason Lovins reported on “updates to the public information” capabilities of the police department. He said that the Town has stood-up a new Facebook account under “South Bethany Police Department” and has a companion Instagram account, @SVPD928. See SOUTH BETHANY page 10

Briggs King Continued from page A61 When she decided to run for office in 2009, it was due to a desire to serve, she said. “Whether in student government in school or because I was raised in a family that was politically active, I always that desire to serve. And so the opportunity came, and I took that opportunity.” In announcing her resignation, she stated she is “ready to embark on my next challenge and change that will allow me to explore, learn and better serve my community.” During the 2023 legislative ses-

sion, she served on committees including Joint Finance, Appropriations, Health & Human Development, Corrections, Judiciary, Public Safety & Homeland Security, Transportation and Veterans Affairs. In the legislature, her assignments have included workers’ compensation reform, wage reform and financial literacy. She served on the Structural Revenue Review Task Force, Mental Health Task Force, Educational Funding Task Force and Retired Employee Benefits Task Force. She has been part of the effort to address the opioid epidemic and sponsored legislation known as Aiden’s Law, in response to the September 2015 death of 8-month-old

Aiden Hundley. He was born with symptoms consistent with prenatal drug exposure and reportedly died at the hands of his parents, who were later convicted in connection with is death. Briggs King helped with bipartisan legislation to protect infants who have been exposed to illegal drugs and alcohol during the mother’s pregnancy. Briggs King and her husband, Stanley King, have two sons, Jared and Justin, and six grandchildren, who live near her and who were pleased to learn she would be home more now that she has resigned from the legislature.

Millville menorah to be moved to town hall property By Kerin Magill Staff Reporter The placement of a menorah — a candle holder used in the Jewish observance of Hanukkah — on Millville town property, followed by its removal, caused concern among some town residents this week. A brief statement Tuesday night by Mayor Ronald Belinko — in which Belinko referred to a “misunderstanding” about a menorah placed at Evans Park and then removed — was the only comment he made about the situation during the regular town council meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 14. “Rest assured the menorah will be placed at Town Hall within the next few days, in time for the holiday season. That’s to clear up any misconception that’s present out there,” Belinko said. After the meeting, Belinko told the Coastal Point that a menorah had been placed at Evans Park but was then removed, when it was decided that the lighting at the park was not sufficient to properly display the menorah. Belinko said the menorah would be placed on the lawn at Millville Town Hall, where it can be properly

lighted. He also said that to his knowledge, Millville is the only area town that displays a menorah during the holidays. This year, those of the Jewish faith celebrate Hanukkah from Thursday, Dec. 7, to Friday, Dec. 15. Hanukkah is a celebration of the victory of the Maccabees, Jewish freedom fighters, over Greek occupiers in the year 139 B.C.E. Following the recapture of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, the fighters found enough oil to burn for one day, but it miraculously burned for eight days — enough to last until they could find more. The menorah is a central part of the Hanukkah celebration, with celebrants adding another flame each night until all are lighted together. The issue gained the attention of residents of the Bishop’s Landing community, where a note about it was posted on a neighborhood social media page. The notice on Town Square — which differed from Belinko’s explanation because it said the menorah had been taken down from town hall — urged residents to contact Belinko or Deputy Mayor Sharon Brienza about the removal of the menorah. No residents in attendance at the

town council meeting, which lasted less than 20 minutes, commented on the menorah removal, or any other town issues.

Yuletide festival, Hudson’s Reserve on the agenda Millville will hold its Yuletide festival at Evans Park on Saturday, Dec. 2. The day will start with a Holiday Artisan Craft Show at 10 a.m. in the Community Center. Outdoor activities will begin at 3 p.m. with ornament- and s’mores-making activities, hot chocolate, music, food and a visit from Santa. The annual tree-lighting will be held at dusk. In other business, the town council voted 4-0 on Tuesday to grant a twoyear extension to Christopher at Millville LLC to begin construction of Hudson’s Reserve. A representative of the company told the council that delays in approvals from the state Department of Transportation have kept the company from moving forward with plans to build the 124-home development, which will be located at Pepper’s Corner Road and Route 17 (Roxana Road). The next Millville Town Council meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 28, at 7 p.m.

Showell Continued from page 1 has worked very hard since the students were back in class. We offered before- and after-school tutoring, summer-school support and high-quality instruction in the classroom.” Math scores went up because of “excellent math interventionists, our Bridges math curriculum and math language learning.” Kerr said the elementary school also did a pilot project with the State to look at math interventions post-COVID and bring student performance up. P.C. Showell, located in Selbyville, has about 300 students in kindergarten through fifth grade with a 50-percent minority-student population. Students score 57 percent above proficiency in math, according to national scores maintained by U.S. News & World Report.The teacher-to-student ratio at the school is about one teacher to every 12 students. Delaware Secretary of Education Mark Holodick commended and recognized 16 schools from across the state for their growth and progress on Nov. 1, in three categories. Awards were given for Exceptional Student Performance and Growth on the state’s assessment for Grades 3-8, Academic Growth and Closing the Achievement Gap between student groups on the Grade 3-8 assessment, or Excellence in Serving Special Populations, where multilingual learners showed exceptional

world experiences,” Kerr said. She described a year-long pilot program with the Delaware Center for the Inland Bays to go beyond coastal clean-ups and apply STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) learning to work they are doing at the James Farm Ecological Preserve. “We extended the CIB work to a yearlong program,” said Kerr, “focusing on the Marine Debris project,” through which students in Grades 3-5 are able to spend qual-

ity time at James Farm. “Our students are learning how we impact the watershed.” The 13 schools that are named 2023 Recognition Schools will receive an $8,000 award, a certificate and a banner to hang in their building.Three schools are being recognized as Schools of Continued Excellence and will also receive a certificate and a banner. “We want our students to become even more excited about school and to do their very best,” said Kerr.

Cops & Goblins again declared a success in Ocean View By Susan Canfora Staff Reporter Ocean View’s annual Halloween celebration, Cops & Goblins — celebrated on Oct. 28 this year at John West Park — was pronounced a success this week by the town council, whose members praised OVPD Capt. Heath Hall, who organized it. During the Tuesday, Nov. 14, town council meeting, Mayor John Reddington said he heard 3,000 people attended this year’s event, but Hall said he didn’t have an exact count. The Rita’s Ice truck gave away about 2,500 cups of flavored ice, and the event also distributed 130 pizzas, 400 hotdogs, 250 hamburgers and six coolers filled with cans of soda and water — all free to those attending — which were gone within 90 minutes after the event began at 1 p.m. It ran until 4 p.m. Hall said there weren’t any complaints except about difficulty parking. “We are trying to make it smoother for next year,” he told the council. Reddington asked about amusement rides at the event, and Hall said the police department rented an additional mechanical ride this year. “They are a big expenditure, but it also makes it more of a carnival atmosphere. It is an expense to the Town. As long as you keep supporting it, I’ll keep organizing it. … I don’t know of any other festivals in this area that have the mechanical rides we have here. Of course, we have a little petting zoo. Barn Hill Preserve came out and brought a couple animals, and the pony rides are a big hit, too,” Hall said. “As coordinator, you’re doing a great job,” Reddington said. Councilman Stephen Cobb said he

talked to attendees who were in Rehoboth Beach for the Seawitch Festival that day but left and drove to Ocean View so they didn’t miss Cops & Goblins. “It has a great reputation. It’s a big draw for the eastern part of the county,” Cobb said. Town Manager Carol Houck also commended Hall, saying he and the police department “did a wonderful job” and that the event “went extremely smoothly and is something that is highly valued for our community.”

Town manager’s report At Houck’s recommendation, the council this week unanimously agreed to spend $68,422 to purchase a new Gilette natural gas generator for the Town’s administration building on Central Avenue. Houck said the generator the Town currently has, fueled by propane, was making loud noises on Nov. 6 — so loud that nearby residents called to complain. A problem with the fuel supply was detected. Houck recommended replacing that generator with a new, natural gas generator that is expected to last 20 to 25 years and will still function in case of a storm or other emergency. The cost, including the generator, installation and step-down regulator is $65,580, plus the conversion cost, for a total of $68,422. Houck said funds are in the Town’s budget and will leave a balance of $1.2 million. She said she expects the new generator to be installed in January or February of 2024, in coordination with Chesapeake Utilities.

Town hall to be polling place

Town employees honored

Ocean View Town Hall on West Avenue will be a polling place in 2024, Houck announced on Tuesday. She said not all Ocean View residents will vote there, and exact locations will be provided by the Department of Elections to individual voters.

Town planner Jill Oliver and accountant Shawanda Garrison were honored by the council for fulfilling the mission of Extra Mile America. Reddington read a proclamation proclaiming Nov. 14 as Extra Mile Day and urging “each individual in the community to take time on this day to not only go the extra mile in his or her own life, but to also acknowledge all those who are inspirational in their efforts and commitment to make their organizations, families, community, country or world a better place.” He honored Garrison for exemplifying goals of Extra Mile Day by creating positive change within the Town’s organization “such that her engagement and management of the town’s accounting programs has helped to ensure the Town receives an unmodified opinion from our outside auditors” — the highest rating a local government can achieve. Reddington honored Oliver for maintaining a high level of service to the community as planner, and for her attention to detail and considerate approach to “working through issues and reaching reasonable decisions benefits our community, as well as her department.”

Canceling December meeting recommended Houck recommended canceling the December town council meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 12, because there are no pending recommendations that council is required to vote on.

Blood Bank event to be scheduled The Blood Bank of Delmarva will be in Ocean View collecting blood donations in February 2024, Houck reported. The exact date hasn’t yet been announced, but the drive is considered important because there has been a shortage, and towns have been asked to assist, she said.

Millsboro PD’s Jones honored for DUI arrests By Susan Canfora Staff Reporter Millsboro Police Department PFC Bryan Jones was honored recently by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) for making several drivingunder-the-influence (DUI) arrests in 2022. Jones, who joined the police department two years ago, received a certificate at a luncheon at the Hyatt in Dewey Beach on Nov. 2. Millsboro Police Chief Brian Calloway said MADD, in conjunction with State Farm, asked police chiefs statewide to nominate officers “that have done a great job with DUIs, and he certainly has.” Jones, 30 — who, with his wife, has two children — said he had training to detect those driving under the influence

of alcohol while he was in the police academy. “You’re going out and you are stopping vehicles that you see swerving, crossing the line, riding around with no headlights on. It’s being proactive,” he said. He received a certificate from MADD, as well as a pin to wear on his uniform. “It was an honor to receive them. It’s important to get these drivers off the street, because they could be putting themselves in danger and putting others in danger. I don’t want my children to be the victims, for sure. I don’t want anybody to be the victim. I know how I feel about my kids and what if it would happen to my children? So even if I can get them off the street that night, hopefully, it changes for the rest of their lives. If you just save one life, for me, that’s important,” Jones said. Calloway credited Jones for “doing a really good job.” “He certainly is becoming very proficient at DUI arrests, and we wanted to be sure he was recognized for it. Naturally, DUIs are still a problem. I’m glad they are bringing the awards back to recognize these officers,” Calloway said. MADD hadn’t honored officers for DUI arrests in about 20 years.

County unveils Kitchen Incubator By Susan Canfora Staff Reporter Sussex County’s new, 1,800square-foot Kitchen Incubator, a fully-equipped work and storage space for entrepreneurs to rent as they start small businesses selling homemade items, formally opened this week, to the delight of business owners including Jessica and Lee Williamson. The Milton couple perfected a recipe for key lime pie — which will be for sale at Parsons Farms beginning Thursday this week — and said they wouldn’t have been able to start Coastal Key Lime Pie if it hadn’t been for the Kitchen Incubator. The brainchild of Bill Pfaff, Director of Sussex County Economic Development, the kitchen, located on the campus of Delaware Technical Community College, has six stoves, warmers, large commercial mixers, stand-up mixers, dishwasher, sinks, refrigerator, walk-in freezer and wet and dry storage for rent. “Food-preneurs,” as Pfaff calls them, can rent the kitchen for $25 to $30 per hour and also rent storage space. Formerly a snack bar on campus, the kitchen cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to build. The county and state governments equally funded it. “What we are doing is, we’re giving these food-preneurs — and that’s what I like to call them — the opportunity to test an idea they have. Or maybe there is a farmer who wants to do a product or a caterer

who does not have access to a commercial-grade kitchen to come in and set up their business. And we offer assistance from branding to marketing to food costing to helping an individual work through the steps of being successful,” said Pfaff, who conceived of the idea. Retired after more than 30 years of running the University of Delaware’s Small Business Development Center, he said he “worked with businesses, existing and potential, at the university, helping them develop business plans and the No. 1 hurdle they had was trying to find a space where they could make their products and take them to market.” “A lot of them start off part time

and grow it into a full-time business. To be able to find a commercial kitchen to lease was virtually impossible. They would use fire halls, churches. They would rent restaurants at night. It was very hard to find the space,” Pfaff told Coastal Point. The Kitchen Incubator provides everything from wares to towels and trash removal, he said. Without the Kitchen Incubator, the Williamsons’ pie business wouldn’t have been possible, Mrs. Williamson said. “We were making the pies out of our home and we needed an incubator to get our license. We love key lime pie and we could not find a

good key lime pie in the area. We tried our recipes on our family and friends and they would give us feedback over two years. We perfected our recipe and we started researching how we could get this out to more people in Sussex County,” she said. The couple makes a buttery graham cracker crust and adds a little coconut to it and the filling is “a really nice balance between tart creaminess and sweet and I think that sets us apart,” Mrs. Williamson said. It is topped with fresh whipped cream “but the most important ingredient is love,” her husband added. Whole pies cost about $30 and five-inch pies cost $9 and $13.

Lovins said there will be a “Ring camera initiative which will be helpful for learning local traffic and highway information, and for details on coastal flooding, as long as you have the Ring application.” Residents do not need to have Ring cameras installed in order to view the app. “You will know what is going on in town, whether you are a resident or non-resident, and you don’t need to have a camera, because Ring has a neighborhood feature.” He announced that SBPD Cpl. Shaun Baldasano “has been activated by the Delaware Air National Guard and deployed to the Middle East for military operations. His deployment is estimated to last eight months. Cliff Ader has two more classes to attend for his reciprocity training and is scheduled to take the COPT exam on Jan. 8, 2024,” Lovins said. “Upon successfully completing the COPT exam, he will be sworn in as a full-time SBPD police officer. This will bring the department staffing to six full-time and one part-time officer. We are still accepting applications for the vacant position,” said Lovins.

He asked the council members to complete the planning form created by the strategic planning task force. “Ask your committees what they wish to see.” Councilwoman Chris Keefe, who serves on the strategic planning team, also asked for more input. “We are starting with the council because we want to vet everything by you,” she said. “A brainstorm means to bring all your ideas.” “Nothing is off the table,” said Saxton of the creative brainstorming process. “Of course, you may wish to consider whether or not we can pay for it!”

An academic triumph to be proud of at Showell Phillip C. Showell Elementary School was recently recognized for exceptional student performance, based on improvement on standardized testing. The award comes with an $8,000 prize for additional educational resources. These kinds of gains are vital as teachers and administrators, as well as students and parents, continue to overcome challenges lingering from the COVID-19 pandemic.

As Showell Principal Christy Kerr, noted, “We offered before and afterschool tutoring, summer school support, and high-quality instruction in the classroom. Math scores went up because of excellent math interventionists, our Bridges math curriculum and math language learning.” Kerr said the elementary school also did a pilot project with the State to look at math interventions post-COVID and bring student per-

formance up. “Honors such as these are not possible without a tremendous amount of hard work and commitment from a gifted group of educators,” IRSD Superintendent Jay Owens recognized. That hard work and commitment should be recognized, and regularly, and it’s nice to see state education officials rewarding these schools. They get a round of applause from us as well.

Letters to the Editor Fenwick committee urges opposition to wind farms Editor: Please note Nov. 20 on your calendars as an important deadline for sending comments to the Bureau of Ocean Energy (BOEM) regarding proposals for the US Wind Marwin and Momentum Wind offshore wind projects: While it may be difficult for individuals to make their voices heard, BOEM’s hearing does provide an official forum for everyone to express opinions. As such, we urge you to record your opposition for a proposed project that will essentially destroy Delaware’s marine environment and coastal communities. (To access the BOEM site, go to https://www.regulations.gov; search for Docket No BOEM-2023-0050; Click on Comment button; Enter information, Click on Submit Comment.) Fenwick Island’s Environmental Committee opposes the use of the “clean energy” mantra by industrial forces that will destroy our coastal area’s human and natural environment. In addition, we oppose the unacceptable US Wind Marwin and Momentum Wind offshore wind projects due to the proven negative impact of these plans on endangered species, environmental damage to marine life, adverse effects to the

fishing industry, and increased risks to national security and maritime safety. While we understand BOEM is under considerable political and investor pressure to approve offshore wind projects, these proposed plans do not meet what the National Environmental Quality Act (NEPA) requires of an EIS. As briefly summarized below, there is a long list of deficiencies that require additional review effort: • Wind farm sales and development by foreign countries endanger U.S. national security. • Major negative impacts exist in the DEIS for commercial fishing and navigation. • New studies are needed to determine economic/business losses for tourism and recreation as the original studies by the University of Delaware (Parsons and Firestone) are flawed. Plus, cables will have an adverse impact on the horseshoe crab reserve, which needs protection for medical research.The increased size of turbines will also lead to unintended consequences for marine life, shore visibility and safe vessel operations. • The endangered North Atlantic right whale (NARW) and other marine life are at risk of extinction due to construction and other operational noises. It is our understanding that the wind industry will be allowed a capricious “kill quotient” if BOEM approves this project.

From additional studies we have reviewed, these turbines will have no measurable influence on improving climate change; CO2 emissions will front load the carbon cost; wind power has no battery storage; irreversible environmental damage will alter the marine environment; and forever chemicals (PFOAs) will be resuspended via cable installations.

Reader: Delaware shouldn’t be shortchanged on wind farms Editor: Much has been written about the proposed offshore wind farm.There are clearly enough questions about this project to warrant at least a pause until these questions are fully and completely answered. That being said, there is a good chance

that (ultimately) this project will move forward. It is understood that the federal government owns the rights to the offshore areas being utilized for this project. What is not understood is how this energy can be made to come ashore in Delaware and yet credited to the state of Maryland. What will be done if and when the time comes for Delaware to pursue offshore wind energy? Will Delaware be allowed to bring our energy ashore in Ocean City? How will that work? If the State of Maryland wants to pursue offshore wind energy, then that energy needs to come ashore in Maryland. Delaware should not be made to bear the consequences of this venture. To our elected officials: Should this project continue on its current path, most likely the worst thing Delaware could do is accept a one-time (compensation) payment. Any such agreement to bring energy ashore should generate a continuous income stream for the State of Delaware. This agreement also needs to include escalation clauses tied to the volume of energy coming ashore, as well as reflecting the current (and future) value of such energy. Anything less than such an agreement shortchanges Delaware. David Moeller Millville

struction workers outside of her home. During the argument, Espinoza-Saldivar allegedly knocked a drink out of his ex-wife’s hands before getting back into his van and speeding toward the three construction workers standing by the deck. The three men, police said, attempted to jump out of the way as the van approached; however, one of the men was struck by the van and pinned against the deck. The 44-year-old man was flown by DSP Trooper 2 helicopter to an area trauma hospital for serious injuries, police said. No other injuries were reported, they noted. Two children were on the deck when the incident occurred, and two additional children came outside when they heard the yelling, police added. While taking Espinoza-Saldivar

into custody, troopers said, they observed signs of impairment and smelled an odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from his breath. Troopers said they located a small bottle of whiskey in Espinoza-Saldivar’s jacket pocket during a search incident to arrest. Espinoza-Saldivar was taken to DSP Troop 4 in Georgetown, where was charged with: Possession of a Deadly Weapon During the Commission of a Felony (a felony), four felony counts of Reckless Endangering First Degree, Vehicular Assault Second Degree, three counts of Endangering the Welfare of a Child, Driving a Vehicle Under the Influence, Driving While Revoked and Offensive Touching.

The Delaware State Police this week arrested a 40-year-old Selbyvillearea man on a felony charge of reckless endangering and additional criminal charges following a vehicular assault that occurred Saturday morning in Frankford. According to the DSP, on Nov. 11, around 9:44 a.m., troopers responded to a residence on the 35300 block of Cape Lane in Frankford for a report of a man struck by a white work van. Troopers arrived at the scene and took the driver of the van — identified as Moises Espinoza-Saldivar, 40, of Selbyville — into custody without incident, they reported. In the ensuing investigation, troopers said, they learned Espinoza-Saldivar had allegedly confronted his ex-wife after he saw her talking to con-

Delaware State Police this week were investigating a single-vehicle crash that killed a Frankford-area woman. Police said that, on Tuesday, Nov. 7, around 1:30 p.m., a 2018 Chevrolet Trax was traveling northbound on Dupont Boulevard (Route 113) approaching Frankford Avenue. For unknown reasons, they said, the vehicle traveled off the east edge of the road

and struck the side of a house. The driver, Irene Owen, 75, of Frankford, was transported to an area hospital, police said, where she died from her injuries later that night. The crash did not result in any injuries to the residents of the home, police noted. The roadway remained open during the crash investigation. The Delaware State Police Troop 7

Collision Reconstruction Unit continued this week to investigate the collision. Troopers are asking anyone who witnessed this collision to contact SCpl. R. Albert by calling (302) 703-3266. Information may also be provided by sending a private Facebook message to the Delaware State Police or contacting Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800847-3333.

Mountaire Farms has signed a letter of intent with Nagel Farm Service to purchase three grain elevators on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, company officials announced this week. The grain facilities, located in Preston, Cordova and Wye Mills, Md., are key locations for farmers on the MidShore, representatives said. Nagel Farm Service will retain their trucking, hardware and crop insurance businesses. “Our intention is to operate these facilities with the same level of exceptional service that local farmers have come to expect from Nagel Farms,” said

Rex Holstein, vice president of agribusiness for Mountaire Farms. “At Mountaire, we are a family-owned company just like the Nagels, and we share similar values. We appreciate how they’ve managed their business through the years, and we can’t wait to continue that legacy.” Over the coming weeks, subject to satisfactory due diligence, Mountaire will finalize the purchase and work with employees on transitioning their employment, benefits, and seniority to Mountaire, representatives said. Mountaire currently owns nine grain elevators on Delmarva and three feed

mills. “The Nagel family and our team of trusted employees will continue to work together serving the farm community with the same level of care we have for nearly 80 years,” family representatives said. “We are proud of the strong bond we have with our loyal customers and look forward to improving these relationships through unparalleled service. Mountaire as an organization is an excellent fit with Nagel Farm Service, as we both operate from two critical principles: (1) prioritizing faith and (2) providing exceptional service to the farmer.”

AAA: 55.4M Americans expected to travel over Thanksgiving weekend AAA projects 55.4 million travelers will head 50 miles or more from home over the Thanksgiving holiday travel period (Wednesday, Nov. 22, to Sunday, Nov. 26). This year’s Thanksgiving forecast is an increase of 2.3 percent over last year and marks the third-highest Thanksgiving forecast since AAA began tracking holiday travel in 2000. The top two years were 2005 and 2019, respectively. “For many Americans, Thanksgiving and travel go hand in hand, and this holiday, we expect more people on the roads, skies, and seas compared to 2022,” said Paula Twidale, senior vice president of AAA Travel. “Travel demand has been strong all year, and AAA’s Thanksgiving forecast reflects that continued desire to get away and spend time with loved ones.” Most Thanksgiving travelers will drive to their destinations. AAA projects 49.1 million Americans will get behind the wheel, an increase of 1.7 percent compared to 2022. Drivers could be paying less for gas than last Thanksgiving, when the national average was $3.58. This year, the national average peaked in mid-August at $3.87 and has been coming down since, despite global tensions causing ripples through the oil market. AAA expects 4.7 million people will fly over Thanksgiving, an increase of 6.6 percent compared to 2022 and the highest number of Thanksgiving air travelers since 2005. Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving are the busiest air travel days ahead of the holiday and the most expensive. While Sunday is typically the busiest day to return home, AAA data shows Monday is also a popular day to fly back after Thanksgiving. The number of people traveling by cruise, bus and train over Thanksgiving is up nearly 11 percent over last year. AAA expects 1.55 million travelers will head out of town using these other modes of transportation, which took a huge hit during the pandemic but have rebounded nicely, they said. “The cruise industry, in particular, has made a remarkable comeback,” Twidale added. “Thanksgiving cruises are mostly sold out, with many travelers looking to spend the holiday at sea.”

Best/worst times to drive INRIX, a provider of transportation data and insights, expects Wednesday, Nov. 22, to be the busiest day on the roads during the Thanksgiving holiday travel period, with average travel times as high as 80 percent over normal in some metro areas. INRIX recommends leaving in the morning or after 6 p.m. to avoid the heaviest holiday congestion. “The day before Thanksgiving is notoriously one of the most congested days on our roadways. Travelers should be prepared for long delays, especially in and around major metros,” said Bob Pishue, transportation analyst at INRIX. “Knowing when and where See AAA page 23

The less-talked-about effects of breast cancer treatment By Robert Donati, PT, CLT Aquacare Physical Therapy When we talk about breast cancer, we may think about pink ribbons, or about the testing leading to diagnosis, staging, radiation, chemotherapy and surgical procedures. However, while breast cancer is a life-changing diagnosis, often the biggest changes in patients’ lives don’t come until after treatment. Some of the side effects of “curing the cancer” are radiation burns, cording and secondary lymphedema, or lymphedema caused by trauma to tissue.

Injury following breast cancer treatment Radiation is the use of X-rays and other high-energy rays to kill or destroy abnormal cells. It can cause damage to normal cells, in addition to killing the cancer cells.This results in radiation burns, causing pain and also decreased tissue elasticity when healing occurs.The treatment is skin care and gentle rangeof-motion exercises, including stretching and scar releases to increase the tissue pliability and increase functional motion for the extremity. Muscle cording is another possible side effect from the treatment of breast cancer. It usually can start in a very short period of time after the surgery. Cording — also known as axillary web syndrome (AWS) — is a side effect of having lymph nodes removed as a result of breast cancer. A cord, or web of cords, develops under the skin on the inside of your arm.This cording leads to tightness, which can extend from the scar site down the arm to the elbow and in some cases, across the forearm. In extreme cases, it can also spread from the axilla to the chest wall.

The treatment is usually performed by a physical or occupational therapist who specializes in the treatment of post operative patients. Your therapist may start treatment by gently trying to release the cord by pulling on the tissue of the outstretched arm and working from the axilla to the wrist. Sometimes when the treatment works, patients will feel a snapping in the tissue as it is released. Performing gentle stretches immediately after the surgery can reduce the possibility of cording occurring. Secondary lymphedema is the most problematic side effect of breast cancer surgical intervention.This is the accumulation of protein rich fluid in the tissue of the traumatized area and can occur in any area of the body including the head, neck, arms, legs, genitals and trunk. Approximately 30 percent of patients will develop lymphedema though the statistics range from 2 to 83 percent incidence of an adverse occurrence.There are no diagnostic tests that check for lymphedema, so the only way to be diagnosed is through a complete medical history, physical exam, and review of risk factors for lymphedema. Some risk factors include treatment history, having an active cancer diagnosis, or having experienced trauma to the body part at risk for lymphedema.

Symptoms of undiagnosed lymphedema Often, lymphedema goes undiagnosed because symptoms can be so mild that the patients do not report them to their surgeon. Some of those symptoms include: • Heaviness • Tightness • Firmness • Pain/aching/soreness • Numbness

• Tingling • Stiffness • Limb fatigue or limb weakness. There are four stages of lymphedema: • Stage 0 is characterized by a limb that is normal but has decreased lymphatic flow. • Stage 1 is denoted by swelling that resolves with elevation of the limb. • Stage 2 has pitting edema that does not resolve with elevation. • Stage 3 is categorized by changes in the skin including hyperpigmentation, hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, papillomatosis, lymphorrhea and/or elephantitis. The “gold standard” of treatment for lymphedema is complete decongestive therapy (CDT). This treatment plan consists of skin care, education, manual lymph drainage, multilayer gradient compression wraps, decongestive exercises, and vasopneumatic compression pumps for the affected extremity or body part. Treatment usually occurs in two phases. During the first phase, patients work with a certified lymphedema therapist at a physical therapy practice. Then, Phase 2 allows the patient to continue treatment at home through exercises, compression garments, massage or other techniques to keep the lymphedema swelling under control. While lymphedema can be managed

through physical therapy and management techniques, there are surgical options. These can include vascular lymph node transfer, where the physician will take a healthy lymph node and place it in the problematic area. A second option is lymphovenous bypass, when the surgeon connects lymphatic vessels to nearby small veins. One benefit of this procedure is it can be performed as an outpatient, and has minimal incisions and blood loss. A third, more-invasive, option is the Charles procedure, where skin is removed and grafted into the affected areas to repair them. There are many other issues that can result from the surgical or non-surgical treatments for breast cancer, but know that you are not alone. Your physical or occupational therapist will be with you every step of the way to help you recover from your surgery and advance on the road to recovery from breast cancer.

Southern Delaware Chorale has selected two high-school students to be this year’s recipients of the Lee Mitchell Scholarship. The Lee Mitchell Scholarship was begun through an endowment given by the family of pianist and composer Lee Mitchell, who was commissioned by former Director of the Chorale, Richard Eckerd, to compose an oratorio entitled, “Delaware: A Secular Oratorio,” which premiered in April 1996. The scholarship is designed to encourage high school singers to participate in community choral singing. Winners of the scholarship are determined through an audition and are awarded the opportunity to sing with the Southern Delaware Chorale, given vocal lessons for the year, their concert attire is provided for them and they are featured soloists at one of the Chorales three yearly concerts. This year’s recipients include Gina Garcia Perez, who is a student at Indian River High School, and sings soprano with Southern Delaware Chorale. She has been singing for nine years and has been involved in many different choirs throughout her school years, including River Rhythms Acapella Choir and TriMusic Honor Society Choir Group. In addition, she sings with her community church, Our Lady of Guadalupe. Through her scholarship, she is studying privately with Denise Adkins, former music teacher in the Indian River School District. Her future plans include going to the University of Delaware to major in finance and to minor in Music. She hopes to join the choral groups offered at UD to keep up with her passion for music which she enjoys sharing with her family and friends. Her desire is to go into real estate while continuing to look for ways to keep singing as a major focus in her life. The second Lee Mitchel Scholar, Caliana Velasquez, also sings soprano with Southern Delaware Chorale. She attends Sussex Technical High School, where she sings in the Concert Choir as well as the Chamber Ensemble. Besides singing, she enjoys sketching and other visual arts, swimming, traveling and Karaoke. She is currently her high school’s Color Guard Captain and is part of the marching band. Caliana is studying voice with Sarah Cambidge, with whom she enjoys singing opera as well as classical and Broadway music. Her future plans include obtaining a license in Cosmetology from Sussex Tech and then going on to college to pursue music and musical theatre. Her desire is to become an educator or director while continuing to perform. Southern Delaware Chorale is very proud of these two young ladies and are very happy to assist them in their current musical endeavors while helping them prepare for their future musical pursuits.

Daisey wins Water Tech Talent Award By Mike Smith Staff Reporter Andrew Daisey of Millsboro, a member of the Daisey’s Well Drilling family, has won a $1,500 college scholarship from Goulds Water Technology — a water pump manufacturing company. The Goulds Professional Dealers Association announced the awards in late October after reviewing student applications, judged on academic achievement, volunteer work and school leadership.

Daisey’s Well Drilling donated $1,500 itself to the Stars & Stripes community fireworks and patriotic celebrations hosted by the Greater Millsboro Area Chamber of Commerce. Andrew Daisey represents his family business at community events. He is also a talented singer and has appeared at numerous church-oriented celebrations and concerts in the area. “At Goulds Water Technology, we understand the importance of education,” said Jen Manswell, demand general manager for residential

Through GDPA, we support our members and their students on their path to success.” Daisey’s Well Drilling was founded in the 1940s and drills wells for local homeowners and businesses. Michael Daisey, Andrew Daisey’s father, and his mother, Barbara, are the

current owners of the well-drilling business. “We treat each project like our own and maintain excellent workmanship every time,” said the Daisey family in a statement. “With Daisey Wells, you can rest assured that your water well system uses only quality materials every time. These include Goulds Pumps, of which we are authorized dealers.” Xylem is a global water technology company with more than 22,000 employees and total revenue of more than $7.3 billion last year.

Lifestyle Local veterans honored for their service at VFW ceremony By Kerin Magill Staff Reporter This year’s Veterans Day ceremony at VFW Post 7234 in Ocean View featured a special ceremony honoring 10 area veterans with handmade quilts. During the Quilts of Valor presentation on Saturday, Nov. 11, each honoree was called up and wrapped in their quilt, then congratulated by post officials. Quilts of Valor ceremonies range from small ceremonies with just family and friends to larger gatherings. On Saturday, the VFW dining hall held a standing-room-only crowd as the honorees received their quilts. Each quilt bore a different arrangement of patches, with red, white and blue designs on fields of white. The Quilts of Valor organization was founded in 2003 by Seaford resident Catherine Roberts, a quilter whose son was deployed to Iraq. Motivated to find a way to comfort wounded veterans, she began the organization as a way to promote healing. Since then, Quilts of Valor has awarded quilts to more than 360,000 service members and veterans, each of whom has been nominated for the honor by a friend or family member. Saturday, Quilts of Valor were awarded to: • James N. Harding, U.S. Navy, Vietnam; • Gregory Albertson, U.S. Navy, Mid-East Operations; • Michael Tuckman, U.S. Army, Vietnam; • Edward Nazarian, U.S. Army, Korea; • Rodney Williams, U.S. Air Force, Vietnam; • Richard Barnes, U.S. Navy, Desert Storm and U.S. Army, Afghanistan; • William Inman, U.S. Army, Vietnam; • Anne Andrews, U.S. Navy, Iraq; • Darin McCann, U.S. Marines, Desert Storm; and • Denise Wagoner, U.S. Air Force, Desert Storm. As each came forward during the emotional ceremony, a summary of their service was given while they were wrapped in their quilts. Then, still wrapped in their quilts, each one stepped across the front of the VFW banquet room, receiving hugs and handshakes from post officials. Representing the Quilts of Valor organization, Dana Mason challenged the

audience to “think about doing more” to honor veterans and service members in their community. “Your attendance today is a good start,” Mason said. “It shows the veterans present — not just those who are receiving quilts — that you appreciate that they served, and that you took the time to attend, and to honor them at this service,” she said. She urged the audience to nominate a veteran they know to receive a Quilt of Valor “to join us in our mission to cover service members and veterans touched by war, in a warm and healing Quilt of Valor.” Mason said members of the post could talk to post officers about nominating others. She also said anyone could nominate a veteran or service

member through the organization’s website, at www.QOVF.org. “Let’s all work to make sure that we are honoring all who served,” Mason said.

Fred Dylla, Lewes resident and Executive Director Emeritus of the American Institute of Physics, will present “Oppenheimer: The Man, the Movie, and the Book,” a multimedia discussion highlighting Robert Oppenheimer’s career and Dylla’s personal experience working with Oppenheimer’s colleagues, on Friday, Nov. 17, at 5 p.m. at the Lewes Public Library, 111 Adams Avenue in Lewes. The accomplishments and tribulations of one of the 20th Century’s most famous physicists, Robert Oppenheimer, were in the spotlight this past summer with the release of Christopher Nolan’s epic film, “Oppenheimer,” inspired by the acclaimed biography “American Prometheus,” by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin. In this engaging and personal presentation, Dylla will show historical photos while describing the arc of Oppenheimer’s career, from physics researcher to head of the Manhattan Project, to government scientific advisor and head of the Institute of advanced Study at Princeton. Dylla will also reflect on the impact Oppenheimer had on his career — and on generations of scientists in the US.

“I had the privilege of knowing and learning from some of Oppenheimer’s Manhattan Project colleagues during my studies of physics at MIT,” said Dylla. “Over my 50-year career, led by his and his colleagues’ public service example, physicists continue to contribute to research that benefits the nation and world.” The event will be moderated by Linda Dylla, a physics science writer who served as a communications director for several Department of Energy national laboratories. Seating is limited, and registration is required. To register, visit the library’s website at lewes.lib.de.us or call (302) 645-2733.

High Tide opens new church building in Dagsboro By Susan Canfora Staff Reporter Coastal Point • Submitted

When it was decided the church would be called High Tide, it was with the power of God in mind, and proximity to the sea. “Tanya read Psalm 93, which is the passage we used in naming the church. Tanya called it High Tide. God is mightier than the breakers, or waves,” explained the Rev. Andrew Ehlers, church pastor explained, referring to his late wife. “After reading that passage, Tanya said, ‘Do you know this area revolves around the water? And we want to teach people that God is mightier than the water.’ So that’s how she came up with the name.” he said. Tanya Ehlers died in January, after a 38-month battle with Stage IV colon cancer. She was 50 years old, an admirable fighter and mother of four who insisted on attending church despite her illness and dedicated herself to the children’s ministry. Now a single parent, the Rev. Ehlers is raising two college students and caring for the two younger children at home. “I am just trying to tread water,” he said quietly during a recent conversation with the Coastal Point, recalling that the church was started more than 20 years ago in the couple’s living room, with a dozen believers, and over the years grew to a congregation of 500. Within a few months after being organized, 40 people had joined, and they moved services to Lord Baltimore Elementary School in Ocean View, where they stayed two years before choosing the Roxana Fire Hall, where they were for eight years. Next, they met at John M. Clayton Elementary School in Frankford for five years, then returned to Roxana Fire Hall in 2019 — until last week’s grand opening of the new church building at 28000 Nine Foot Road in Dagsboro. “It took a long time to get a new church built. Somebody donated the land to us, and the sitework cost close to $1 million. It just took time. We just kept meeting and renting places. The Lord kind of provided along the way. Our grand opening was neat. There were 832 people there at two services that morning,” Ehlers said. He is assisted by the Rev. Chris Hardy. The new building, with a contemporary look, baptistry and giant state-of-the-art screen in the center, holds 411 people — an impressively higher number than the handful who See HIGH TIDE page 42

High Tide Continued from page 41 first assembled. The size of the congregation grew because of the focus on the next generation and a strong children’s ministry, for babies to high school students, Ehlers said. “A lot of churches in the area don’t have that. They don’t have a lot for younger people. Then another crowd of people who came here were those who are retired. They have a lot of extra time, and they want to stay involved. We got them involved in the children’s ministry, in our pantry ministry that feeds 80 people every two weeks. A lot of people help out,” he said. “My wife was the catalyst for the children’s ministry. She poured her life and soul into teaching kids the Bible. She said, ‘This building is not about a person. It’s not about pastoring. It’s not about me. It’s about hearing the message of Jesus.’ It was pretty powerful. Before she died, she encouraged us all to continue. My 13-year-old son Drew played piano on stage with a band at the grandopening service,” he said. His daughters, 20-year-old Raychel, 19-year-old Camryn and 16year-old Leilani, worked with youngsters in the new building their mother never got to see completed. Ehlers refuses to take credit for the success of the church but is quick to praise his wife — who, he said, was open about her illness and what she endured. “That was a testimony to her strength. She was amazing. She kept her faith through all of this,” her husband said, adding he is sometimes asked if God didn’t care enough about her to spare her life and if he’s angry at God. “Jesus died on the cross. If he did-

What is greater than cancer is that Jesus restored our relationship with God. … If I hadn’t had my faith, there would be no hope about my wife’s death. It deepened our faith as a family and as individuals. It gives you hope. “That is what gets you through it — your faith that God hasn’t abandoned you. He doesn’t promise that all the problems will go away. He does promise us he will be with us,” Ehlers said. There was a time, he said, when he believed the pastor was the

biggest draw when the faithful are searching for a church, but he read a study that found newcomers decide if they’ll return within the first five minutes. “If they feel welcome, if everybody is nice to them and they feel safe, they will come back,” he said, adding that everyone is welcome to casual, contemporary services at 9 and 10:30 a.m. on Sundays at High Tide, a Baptist affiliate. “It’s a team effort, honestly. It’s not about one person or just the preaching. And you know what they say when you’re giving a sermon: If you can’t be good, don’t be long,” he

joked. “It’s been a conglomeration of everything. It has become family, too. When my wife was diagnosed, we did four trial medicines at different hospitals. … We flew to Houston 17 times. “Our church family just loved us. They sent meals. They raised money on GoFundMe to pay for our travel expenses. … They covered 100 percent of all of our expenses. “It’s just amazing. They really have loved us.”

Delaware Day celebrated at Old Christ Church The Maj. Nathaniel Mitchell Chapter (MNM) of the NSDAR, along with the Delaware Daughters of the American Revolution, National Sons of the American Revolution (NSSAR) and Children of the American Revolution (CAR), celebrated Delaware Day with a wreath-laying ceremony on Nov. 12 at Old Christ Church in Laurel, followed by a Delaware Day ceremony. Delaware proclaimed Dec. 7 as Delaware Day in 1933, in honor of that day in 1787 when Delaware became the first state to ratify the U.S. Constitution, thus making Delaware the first state in the new nation. The ceremony included speakers Carol Evans, state chaplain and regent of the Maj. Nathaniel Mitchell Chapter,

NSDAR; Barbara Seningen, Delaware state regent, NSDAR; Larry Josefowski, Delaware state first vice president, NSSAR; Dennis Schrader Esq., Delaware State president, NSSAR; Harper Hudson, Delaware state chaplain, NSCAR, who provided the invocation; and David Hudson, who provided the sermon. That was preceded by the Diamond Daughters singing “Faith of Our Fathers.” Following the ceremony, the CAR laid a wreath on Mitchell’s gravesite at Old Christ Church, and a tour of Rosemont included a brief history of the historical sites by Ned Fowler. Mitchell was governor of Delaware from 1805 to 1808. Born in Laurel in 1752, he served as a delegate to the Continental Congress in 1786 to 1788. Old Christ Church was constructed in 1772 and is one of the few remaining unaltered wooden structures of its age and type in the United States. His homestead, Rosemont, is Laurel’s oldest home, dating to 1769. NSDAR is a non-profit nonpolitical women’s service organization dedicated to promoting historic preservation, education, patriotism and honoring the patriots of the Revolutionary War.

Operation Ramp It Up installs ramp for local veteran

VWF Post 7234 in Ocean View recently coordinated the installation of an ambulatory ramp for a local veteran, Vincent Glass, through the non-profit organization Operation Ramp It Up, which raises funds from corporate sponsors to cover the cost of the aluminum ramps for U.S. military veterans in need. Jeff Ringel, committee chairman for the VFW post, noted that, to date, Operation Ramp It Up has installed ambulatory ramps in all 50 states. The ramp installed at Glass’ residence was provided by Bob’s Discount Furniture. Volunteer installers were store managers from Bob’s Discount stores located in the Philadelphia region, including Kate McLain (May’s Landing, N.J.) Co-Ko Parker (Cherry Hill, N.J.), Ken Floyd (Wilmington), Shawn Thomas (Dover), Javier Medina (Dover) and Judey Troy (Philadelphia regional manager). Glass was also presented with a Flag of Valor plaque, provided by Flags of Valor, a veteran-owned business employing more than 70 veterans. FOV provides veteran-designed and -crafted goods from this generation to pass onto the next. Part of their fundamental beliefs, representatives said, is “Our time in service may end but our commitment to serving and helping those in need did not.” Its lifetime contribution to other veteran and law-enforcement charities totals more than $1.5 million. Find out more by looking for @flagsofvalor. VFW Post 7234 identified Glass for the Operation Ramp It Up program via its Help-a-Vet program. Post Commander James Jensen said the Help-a-Vet program actively seeks out veterans in the Sussex County area to determine what assisSee RAMP page 47

largest VFW Post in Delaware, with more than 2,000 registered members. The VFW Auxiliary Post is the largest VFW auxiliary in the country, with more than 4,000 members. In 2022, Post 7234 was awarded the National Community Post of the Year Award. Those knowing of any veteran needing assistance can contact the Post at (302) 539-9981, leave a mes-

sage and a Post representative will contact them. Glass served in the U.S. Navy from 1968 to 1974. While in the service, he was assigned to the U.S.S. Newport News (CA-148) and completed tours to the Mediterranean Sea, Caribbean Sea and North Atlantic Ocean. “Following a recent stroke,” Post representatives said, “Mr. Glass’ mo-

bility was greatly diminished. He commented that the new ramp has greatly enhanced his mobility and his quality of life. His sister, who was present at this presentation, was extremely happy with the ramp and commented that both the Operation Ramp It Up ramp and Flags of Valor plaque were the nicest things anyone has done for their family.”

“There are a lot of folks in need — many are homeless — and the HLFM hopes to fill the pantries for a few weeks with this extra Food Drive,” organizers said. The food pantries requested certain non-perishables, including spaghetti sauce, pasta, peanut butter, jams and jellies, canned fruits/vegetables/soups, boxed cereal, powdered or shelf-stable milk, rice and beans. “Please honor the HLFM’s mission and the health needs of folk who use the food pantries by providing healthy foods,” they requested. Diapers, menstrual hygiene products and laundry detergent are also badly needed. Pantries are always looking for fresh produce, meat, eggs and dairy, so customers are also being urged to purchase fresh food at the market for this Food Drive and drop them off at the HLFM Food Drive table near the HLFM Infor-

mation Tent. Shelf-stable items may be dropped off at the same table or at the entrance from Savannah Road or the bus parking lot. It is also the last Saturday to purchase yams, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, rapini, collard greens, persimmons, oysters, crabmeat, fresh sage sausage for stuffing, mushrooms, pies and all the fixins’ for Thanksgiving. Dittmar Family Farms and Mahon River Farm will not only have preordered turkeys for pick-up, but also extra turkeys for sale until they run out. Mahon River Farm will also have some boneless skinless turkey breast and turkey legs quarters — come early for these. There are also apples, and market offerings using fall ingredients such as apple and pear jellies, jams and chutneys, soups, fresh juices, kombucha, apple cider, apple cider doughnuts and pastries. It’s also time to buy freerange chicken, beef and pork to freeze for the winter. The HLFM plans to open the 2024 Saturday Market on May 4 at George H.P. Smith Park. Parking is limited, so customers should walk or bike to the market if able. For those who must drive to the market, there is parking in the school bus parking lot, including accessible parking. There is also parking on Savannah Road and Sussex Drive. The HLFM website www.historiclewesfarmersmarket.org lists all vendors, their contact information, and whether or not they take pre-orders. For pre-orders, the customer may pick up at the vendor tent in the market. Customers can sign up to receive the market’s newsletter on the HLFM website. The market’s newsletters list demos, what each farmer/producer is bringing to each Saturday market, upcoming events and more. It is a way to stay in touch with the market for news about delivery/pick-up from market farmers/producers over the winter and more. Customers may also email info@historiclewesfarmersmarket.org and ask to be added to the list. The Market accepts SNAP and matches up to $20 per market, per customer.

Wine, Food & Music Festival raises $25K for local non-profits Creative Coastal Connections Corp, the founding organization for the Southern Delaware Wine, Food & Music Festival, announced this week that the bulk of the funds raised from this year’s event — $23,000 — went to Headstart/Early Headstart, an initiative of Children & Families First (CFF). This year’s festival was a major success, organizers said, raising $25,000 for local Sussex County charities. The eighth annual festival took place on Sept. 16 at Nassau Valley Vineyards in Lewes, and featured food from local restaurants, a variety of wines, cocktails and craft beers, and music from local performers. Festival attendees also had the opportunity to test their wine expertise at the blind wine tasting, try the wine pull and participate in the silent auction. “Ninety percent of a child’s brain development occurs before they enter kindergarten,” said CFF Communications & Engagement Manager Laura Bartus. “That means, even prior to delays caused by the pandemic, low-income, high-needs children were at a significant disadvantage. “This funding means much more than just support for our programs.

Knights of Columbus St. Ann’s Parish Council donates coats for kids Tabletop Tree St. Ann’s Knights of Columbus Council 16771 has distributed nearly 200 warm winter coats throughout the community this year as part of the national Knights of Columbus Coats for Kids program, which has distributed more than a million coats over the years, giving the gift of warmth to children in need throughout the United States and Canada. Locally, the St. Ann’s Council distributed coats to children and families at Lighthouse for Broken Wings, Selbyville Middle School and John M. Clayton Elementary School, and at events sponsored St. Vincent de Paul and the St. Ann’s Religious Education team at St. Ann’s Catholic Church in Bethany Beach and Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church near

Frankford. “We have been participating in the national Coats for Kids program for about five years now and through the generosity of the members of our council and their fundraising efforts and the donation of time by our Brother Knights, we have distributed nearly 750 coats to kids in need,” said Grand Knight Tom McElroy. “Seeing the smiles on the faces of the kids and the families, who get to pick out a coat of their choosing, lets us know how important this program is to local families in need.” The Knights of Columbus is a family-oriented Catholic fraternal organization devoted to works of charity and volunteer service. They raise funds through various community events and

donate the net proceeds to worthy causes. During its fiscal year that ended June 30, the St. Ann’s Council raised more than $40,000 that supported local programs for the homeless, individuals with intellectual disabilities, injured veterans and first-responders, Justin’s Beach House, St. Ann’s parish and nearby pregnancy support centers, in addition to the Coats for Kids program. Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to men 18 or older who are practical (that is, practicing) Catholics in union with the Holy See. For information on joining the Knights of Columbus, contact local Membership Director Steve Van Meter at svanmeter77@gmail.com.

Workshop offered The Inland Bays Garden Center will offer a tabletop tree workshop on Friday, Dec. 8, from 1:30 to 3 p.m., with floral designer Alison Webb. Participants will create a decorated miniature tabletop Christmas tree of cut evergreens (primarily boxwood), and other natural seasonal additions that will last through out the holiday season. Webb will assist them in building the tree, which she said is a perfect gift for shut-ins or folks with a small space. Webb was inducted into the American Institute of Floral Designers (AIFD) in 1985 while working and living in Baltimore. Upon retirement from the floral industry, she moved to the Maryland/Delaware coast and has transitioned her floral love into plants — particularly natives. She has worked with Inland Bays Garden Center for five years. Participants can feel free to bring their own miniature holiday decorations to enhance their design. Sharp clippers and a paring knife are a must for this adult-only class. Refreshments will be provided. The class is limited to eight participants and costs $60.

Obituaries Patricia Evelyn ‘Ms. Pat’ Belle It is with great sorrow that her family announced this week the passing of their beloved Patricia Evelyn Belle, known by most as “Ms. Pat.” Although sudden, her death was peaceful. Born the youngest daughter of Rosa Lee Bell and Brooks Bell Jr., in Manhattan, N.Y. The family relocated to New Haven, Conn., and that’s where she and her lifelong partner, Nathaniel Robinson Sr., raised their family before moving to Delaware in 2004. Her most recent employment was at Polo Ralph Lauren for several years, where she formed loving bonds with her coworkers and bosses alike. She made those types of bonds and friendships everywhere she went. She loved, more than anything, spending time with her family — especially her grandchildren — sharing a special relationship with Brooks Doron Belle, her oldest grandson. She was an avid New York Yankees fan, and she enjoyed watching them play. Belle was preceded in death by her parents Rosa Lee and Brooks Bell Jr.; her brother Willie Thompson; and her eldest son, Johnnie Lee Belle. She leaves to mourn her partner of 37 years, Nathaniel Robinson Sr.; her daughter Deloris Hamlet of New Haven, Conn.; Yemana Belle (and Mindy) of Lewes, Del.; sons Darrell Belle (and Shana) of Seaford, Del., and Nathaniel Robinson Jr. (and Jessica) of Ellendale, Del.; her sister Phyllis Scott, and brothers Johnny Moore, Darrell B. Belle, Robert L. Belle and Glenn C.M. Belle, all of Delaware, Billy Thompson of North Carolina, and Kenny Thompson of Virginia. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-nieces and -nephews and cousins. Her homegoing service will be held at 11 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 17, 2023, at Trinity Holiness Church, 34640 Delaware Ave., Frankford, Del., where the viewing will be from 10 to 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made directly to the family.

D. Joseph ‘Joe’ Lane, 88 D. Joseph “Joe” Lane — husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, lifelong lover of people — passed away on Tuesday, Nov. 7, 2023, at home in Bethany Beach, Del., where he and his beloved wife, Dorothy, had lived for the last 30 years. He was 88 years old. He was born Jan. 18, 1935, to his Irish immigrant parents, Mary (O’Sullivan) Lane and Patrick Lane, on Allison Street in northwest Washington, D.C. Lane graduated from Gonzaga College High School in 1953. After serving in the U.S. Army, he graduated from Georgetown University and began a lifelong career with IBM, which took his family to Denver, Colo., before returning the family to Maryland, where they settled in Montgomery Village, Md. Joe and his wife, Dorothy S. (Rogers) Lane, lived in “the Village” for 18 years before retiring to Bethany Beach While living in Montgomery Village, he was an active member of St. Rose of Lima Parish and its “Team X” small faith community. He raised

tens of thousands of dollars through his famous VIP dance, which benefited St. Rose’s social concerns ministry. After retiring to Bethany, he continued his civic and charitable work, often with St. Ann’s Catholic Church. He spent countless hours organizing the annual “Very Important Charities” dance benefiting St. Vincent De Paul, Joanne’s Book Giveaway Project and Rise to Hunger organizations. He served as chairman of the town’s annual Fourth of July parade, worked with Meals on Wheels, local library fundraising, the parish Men’s Club and Voice of the Faithful. Friends will also cherish memories of the large-group trips he organized over 20 years to visit numerous places on four continents. Lane simply loved sports — coaching, playing and watching. He enjoyed (a cold beer after) playing tennis, basketball, and tolerated jogging to try to keep up with Dorothy. He coached basketball and was president of the I-270 Youth Basketball league. In Bethany, he played tennis and was active with Bayside Tennis. He was a true “people person” and will be dearly missed by family and a large circle of friends. Among favorite memories are his affectionate roasts, which he presented as public proclamations that always began

with, “Whereas…” “Joe loved life and loved us all — so very well. We will always be grateful and we will always miss him.” Lane was preceded in death by his daughter Mary, in 2007. He is survived by his loving wife of 63 years, Dorothy S. (Rogers) Lane; his children Daniel (and Karen), Patrick (and Claire), Anne-Marie Smith (and Raghu Raghavan), son-in-law David Schwartz, Matthew (and Jane Kim) and Brendan (and Bonnie). He is also survived by 14 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. A funeral mass was to be held at St. Ann’s in Bethany Beach, Del., on Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2023. A wake was planned at De Vol Funeral Home in Gaithersburg, Md., on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023, from 2 to 4 p.m., and burial at Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Silver Spring, Md., on Friday, Nov. 17, 2023, at 11:30 a.m. In lieu of flowers, the family requested donations to Gonzaga College High School or St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Ann’s Catholic Church in Bethany Beach.

Great Performances (12) WCPB 9:30 p.m. In November of 1623, the first comprehensive collection of the plays by William Shakespeare arrived at the bookshop of a London publisher — ultimately saving 18 plays from being lost. New York’s Public Theater performs pieces of Shakespeare’s work.

SATURDAY Kennedy (45) HIST 8 p.m. This premiere examines the remarkable life, enduring legacy and leadership of President John F. Kennedy during his formative years (1917-1940), including his time in school, his relationship with his family and his early interests in history and politics. Saturday Night Live (11) WBAL 11:30 p.m. Live from the Rockefeller Center in New York, a hilarious ensemble of regulars, including Colin Jost and Chloe Troast, are joined by a weekly celebrity host and a musical performance as they perform sketches and shorts in front of a studio audience.

SUNDAY Austin City Limits (12) WCPB 5 a.m. Rock superstars Foo Fighters return to ACL for the third time, bringing their signature soul-baring rock and roll via a performance that includes songs such as “Times Like These,” “My Hero,” “The Best of You” and many others behind singer Dave Grohl.

Chandler tops 1K rushing yards as playoff-bound IR wins fourth straight Defensively, senior linebacker Collin King made eight stops to reach the 100tackle plateau for the season. “DurIng the off-season, Jayvion set a 1,000-rushing-yard goal for himself,” said Townsend. “He did everything necessary to accomplish his goal. I am proud of him. “Last season, Collin was our leading tackler,” added the coach. “I knew coming into this season that he would be a tough player on defense. To reach 100 tackles in a single season is a great accomplishment for him.”

Indian River running back Jayvion Chandler scores a touchdown as First State Military Academy defensive back De’Jere Johnson arrives late on the play. Chandler rushed for 118 yards and scored two touchdowns on Thursday, Nov. 9. The Indians won the game 28-6. By Mike Stern Staff Reporter They’ve turned the corner. The Indian River High School football program has transitioned into a perennial winner. They became the first Indians team since 2014 to win four straight games with a workmanlike 28-6 Senior Night victory over visiting First State Military Academy on Thursday, Nov. 9. The triumph capped the program’s best regular-season won-lost record since 2012, when that year’s 9-3 squad earned a DIAA state playoff berth. “It feels great to have made the play-

offs the last three years,” said head coach Phil Townsend. “A lot of work goes into this from the coaching staff, and it is exciting to see what the guys can do each week. The players have bought into the process, and this is a testament to their dedication. “The previous years’ football teams set the mold,” added the coach. “And these guys are following that example. That includes being in the weight room all summer long, being a part of our 7on-7 initiative, and participation in spring football. If our student athletes continue to put in the work, then success will follow.” The triumph strengthened the Class

1A playoff seeding for Indian River, which finished the regular season at 5-2 in District 2 competition and 7-3 overall. The No. 4 seeded Indians will make their third straight DIAA playoff appearance beginning at home against No. 5 seed Brandywine (4-3) this Saturday, Nov. 18, at the IRHS stadium in Dagsboro. The opening kickoff is scheduled for 5 p.m. The winner of that game advances to the state semifinals the weekend of Nov. 24-25. Junior tailback Jayvion Chandler led another dominant performance by the IR offense by eclipsing the 1,000-rushing-yard mark for the season, with 118 yards and two TD runs on 20 carries.

For the fourth straight week, the Indians jumped out to a sizable first-half lead. Sophomore tailback Darnell Stokes capped the offense’s opening drive by reaching the end zone from 24 yards out, his ninth rushing TD of the season. Chandler made it 14-0 with a 1-yard scoring burst later in the opening quarter. The Bulldogs (6-4 overall, 4-3 in District 2 competition) cut their deficit to 14-6 in the second quarter on a brilliant 25-yard halfback pass from senior Javier Floyd to wide receiver Damier Bryan. The FSMA freshman outleaped two rival defensive backs to make the catch in the end zone. The Indians, who allowed just one touchdown for the third straight game, shut down the explosive FSMA offense for the remainder of the game. For the game, they allowed 189 total yards of offense, just 35 of them on the ground. Senior Bryce Johnson led IR with 10 tackles, while seniors King and Austin Grise added eight stops apiece. Freshman Ty Weber chipped in with seven more tackles. And seniors Rashad Hopkins and Tyz’Juan Jurado recorded a quarterback sack and picked off an FSMA pass, respectively. “We gave up a trick play in the first half that allowed them to stay in the game,” said Townsend. “In the third quarter, we wore them down and put 14 unanswered points on the board.” Indian River added insurance with a pair of third-quarter touchdowns. Sophomore quarterback Dylan Grise connected with Stokes for a 28-yard TD See FOOTBALL page 72

Brynn Crandell wins third straight DIAA state cross-country title By Mike Stern Staff Reporter The finish couldn’t have been scripted any better. Senior cross-country sensation Brynn Crandell put a brilliant exclamation point on her outstanding Indian River High School career on Saturday, Nov. 11. Crandell ran an impressive 18:20.90 at the 2023 DIAA state cross-country tournament in Brandywine Creek State Park in Wilmington to edge her closest competitor. Tatnall School sophomore Abby Downin finished second, with a time of 18:49.90. The 2023 state championship was the third of Crandell’s heralded career. She intends to commit to the University of Delaware in Wilmington, where she will study and run cross-country as well as indoor and outdoor track. “This season really couldn’t have gone or ended better,” said Crandell. “Running these times and placing the way I have this season has been really rewarding. Our state’s crosscountry performances are really advancing. Being able to stay in the top of the pack is very difficult, because

Senior/Football The hard-hitting senior middle linebacker reached the 100tackle plateau for the season after making eight stops in the Indians’ 28-6 victory over Class 1A, District 2 rival First State Military Academy last Thursday, Nov. 9. King finished the regular season right at 100 tackles, 82 of them on solo stops. He also forced a fumble and made four tackles for lost yardage.

a 18:49.1 to win her second state title. As a sophomore in 2021, she ran a 19:37.0 in rainy weather. Crandell admitted that this particular title was especially rewarding, due to all the work that she put in this past summer. “Training and cross-training for hours every day as a lifeguard at Middlesex Beach was difficult in addition to working a full-time job on the beach,” she said. “But I really think all that work I put in was the reason for my success. It just instilled a confidence that if I put my mind to something, I can accomplish anything.” Crandell admitted that she put more of an emphasis on easy mileage during the week this fall. “About 80 percent of the mileage I do during any week is at a conversational pace, and the other 20 percent is where I get speed from,” she said. “These miles are where I’m going at my race pace or faster, to build speed endurance. I never did this in the past, and I used to just think that more speed makes you faster. In reality, it’s less speed and strength training — something I have started to

incorporate since the spring track season. “In addition to actual training, my mindset has also played a huge role in my performance,” added Crandell. “I try to enter every race with confidence and be able to know how I will react to anything that could be thrown at me. But I realize that every race is only one part of a lifelong running career. And one bad performance is just that — one bad performance — and it doesn’t define me.” Crandell will race this coming weekend at the Nike NXR regional competition in Cary, N.C. She also will compete the weekend of Nov. 25 at the Footlocker race in Boston, Mass.

Salute to the IRHS Seniors Tyre battled everywhere on the volleyball court By Mike Stern Staff Reporter She gritted her teeth. Using her 5-foot-5 build, she took on the opponent’s behemoths and contributed every way she could in proximity to the volleyball net. When her presence was required on the Indians’ back line, senior girls’ volleyball standout Alisa Tyre was a whirling dervish of a performer. Tyre went into a headlong dive whenever the situation required a determined dig and raced into open spaces in pursuit of the descending volleyball. She also contributed assists and kill shots — anything to

help her team rally into the playoffs. “Alisa was our most versatile player,” said Indian River High School girls’ volleyball head coach Mark Gibson. “She did what was needed because she has a great head for the game.” Tyre was one of the key driving forces that enabled the Indians to catch fire in mid-season. She helped her team win their last five straight matches to finish the regular season at 8-7 and notch the program’s sixth DIAA postseason trip in the last seven seasons. The Indians lost their openinground playoff match, 3-1, to host Concord on Nov. 1. Tyre contributed

five kills and four digs as IR lost the first, second and fourth sets to its Wilmington-based opponent. She finished her senior campaign as the Indians third-best producer, with 72 kills, 92 digs and 27 service aces. Tyre wholeheartedly adjusted her game to fit the team’s needs after it lost two key starters mid-season. “I think given the circumstances of having to adapt to different lineups because of injuries, our overall play was good,” said Tyre, an outside hitter. “Being a part of this team has presented its ups and downs.

He has succeeded, and helped us succeed, despite all of the trials and tribulations of being the new head coach of our team.” She also credits those who have motivated and inspired her during her two-year IR varsity career. “My mom, Jessica, has been my No. 1 supporter throughout my volleyball career,” said Tyre. “And one of my teachers, Kelsea Dell, is always there for me when I need advice on how to communicate with someone or solve a problem. Last but not least, IR assistant coach Jay Clark was my first travel coach when I started playing in seventh grade. He never gave up on me and always gave me a positive outlook on things, and convinced me to never back down from a challenge.” Tyre will begin studying at West Virginia University in Morgantown, W.Va., beginning next fall. She will pursue a degree in exercise science and hopes to participate in the university’s athletic training program.

Gibson is named new IR boys’ basketball head coach By Mike Stern Staff Reporter Youth will be served. There will be little, if any, generation gap for the Indian River High School boys’ basketball players. They will certainly identify with their new head coach. Jason Gibson, a 2023 graduate of Towson University, in Towson, Md., was recently hired as the Indians’ new boys’ basketball head coach. “I am super-excited to take on this role as head coach,” said Gibson, who will turn 23 on Nov. 21. “I understand the privilege that comes with coaching young people, and I look forward to teaching my athletes what winning basketball looks like.” The native of Severna Park, Md., admitted that he will not be one to display histrionics or raise his voice during games. “I am not a big screamer,” he said. “I would much rather call my player over and explain his mistake. That will help him avoid making the same mistake again. I want my players to be

able to take life lessons from their basketball experiences and use them in the future. That makes learning from your mistakes bigger than just basketball.” Gibson brings an impressive basketball IQ from his recent high school and collegiate playing experiences. He proudly admits that he has been coached by several outstanding mentors, including Eric Singletary at Sidwell Friends High School, Towson head coach Pat Skerry, and Mike Jones at Dematha basketball camps and at the Capital Classic all-star game. “And there were others who have great reputations from whom I have learned,” said Gibson. “They’ve all helped me learn how to be a good leader throughout my entire playing career. I understand the intangibles that a coach should possess.” Gibson will also be one of the youngest head mentors in Delaware. He graduated from Towson University last May with a degree in psychology. He was a standout 6-foot-1 shooting guard for the Tigers, an

NCAA Division I member of the Coastal Athletic Association. Gibson played in only three games as a senior after sustaining a season-ending back injury. As a junior in 2021-2022, he emerged as one of Towson’s primary three-point threats, helping the Tigers win the CAA regular-season title and earn a berth in the National Invitation Tournament. He finished among the conference’s top seven for three-point shooting percentage and long-distance field goals per game. As a sophomore in 2020-2021, Gibson was one of the Tigers’ primary guards, averaging 9.6 points and 1.8 assists per game. He finished the season with 154 points and 28 assists, and was second on the team with 24 three-point field goals and 28 assists. As a freshman in 2019-2020, Gibson started Towson’s final 19 games and was named to the All-CAA Rookie Team after averaging 8.4 points, 2.1 assists and 0.7 steals per game. Gibson, who will be assisted by holdover Kirk Lawder, replaces Devin Mann, who led the Indians to an impressive 16-6 record and a playoff berth last season. The Indians defeated Lake Forest in the opening round before losing to Howard Vo-Tech in the second round.

Indian River High School golf stalwart Sarah Lydic has earned plaudits and kudos for her achievements on the golf course. The senior standout is also the latest Indians’ student-athlete to walk the path between the Dagsboro institution and an NCAA Division I school. She officially signed her commitment form to study and play women’s golf at Wake Forest University on Wednesday, Nov. 8. As a Sussex Academy freshman in 2021, Lydic won the DIAA state golf championship. She followed that with a pair of consecutive fourth-place finishes in the state tourney as a sophomore and a junior. In between those two achievements, she transferred to Indian River High School prior to her junior year and earned Academic All Henlopen Conference and High School High Honor Roll kudos. Lydic continues the march from IR to Division I schools that previously included softball player Brandi Mitchell at Fairleigh Dickinson College in Madison, N.J., and soccer star Jordan Illian at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, S.C.

Dukes named new IR girls’ basketball head coach By Mike Stern Staff Reporter

lopen Conference. Dukes has coached the girls’ basketball team at Sussex Central High School in Georgetown for the past 17 years. “My coaching philosophy is to promote desire, dedication and discipline,” said Dukes, who has also coached boys’ basketball, football and baseball. “I have been teaching this since I started in this profession. No matter what life brings, this is the foundation of you as a person to determine how successful you can make it. You have to be able to adapt, and you have to be able to communicate and motivate.” Dukes, who will be assisted by third-year assistant coach Taylor Pritchett (Sussex Central High School, Class of 2015) and first-year mentor Chloe Diestel, has mixed emotions as he assumes control of the Indians’ helm. “When you have served more than 20 years at one location — Sussex Central High — it’s a long time, no matter what you are doing,” said Dukes. “However, I am really excited to work with the young ladies at Indian River High. They seem to have accepted me and the staff into their home, and they are working hard. They are very coachable.”

The plan is to build a strong girls’ basketball program at Indian River High School. “Our expectations are high, but we need buy-in from the young ladies at Indian River High,” said Ron Dukes, who was recently named the new head coach for the IRHS girls’ basketball team. “Most of the school’s girls’ programs have good numbers of student-athletes participating in their sports. We want the same for basketball. We can turn the corner with leadership and a winning mentality, and those are both here. We need to bring that to the court.” Dukes replaces Roger Clay, who was the girls’ head coach for the last three years, from the 2020-202l through 2022-2023 seasons. Clay’s first team won a DIAA playoff game, 38-21 over Milford, before losing to Mt. Pleasant, 61-23. The 40-year veteran coach is no stranger to the Indians or the HenCoastal Point • Mike Stern

Exposure Continued from page 10 woman driving an Acura MDX drove through the front of the store and nearly out the back of it.The driver was charged with reckless driving as a result of the accident, according to Fenwick Island police. Tim Collins said this week that his employee — who was pinned under the car and suffered burns — was released from the hospital last week and is doing well. “She’s out, she’s recovering, and she has to go back weekly for treatments,” Collins said of the employee. “Her attitude is good,” he said of the 67-year-old woman. “We’ve communicated with her several times, and she seems to be doing well.” The customer — a 75-year-old woman who Collins said was one of four in the store at the time of the accident — received only minor injuries, he said. Collins was able to reopen the store about two weeks after the Oct. 6 accident, even though the southern end of the store remains closed to the public. A temporary partition has been built to close off the damaged area. That area, he said, “remains as it is,” until he gets clearance from his insurance company to begin repairing the approximately 1,500-square-foot area that was damaged when the car tore through the store. “We were allowed to totally clean it out — meaning all the debris, broken fixtures, inventory that was ruined… Even things you don’t think about: Christmas displays, holiday displays — all of that stuff was in our stockroom,” in the damaged southern end of the building. “What you see now when you go into the damaged area — basically what you see now is pretty much a cleared-out area, but you see some very significant structural [damage].There’s things hanging from the ceiling, there’s beams that are busted in

half that are hanging out of a wall — that type of thing.” Collins said the temporary wall “is done in a way that [customers] don’t really realize that there’s another 1,000 square feet behind that wall.” “We just submitted an estimate for the reconstruction to the insurance company, and we’re waiting to hear back. I think once we get the OK, hopefully, on that, we’ll start scheduling repairs. “I’m hoping that this is all going to be completed by March or April of ’24.That’s the plan right now,” Collins said. “For me or my family, when you walk in that area, it’s depressing, but the public doesn’t see that,” since the store seems to be “pretty much back to operating normally,” he said. “That’s a positive thing.” “The major loss was inventory and fixtures,” Collins said, including about 200 to 300 pieces of fall clothing and 400 to 500 pieces of summer-wear that had been put on sale. “All of that was lost — it was just ground under all the debris and the glass and the splinters and so forth.” Having to wait to clean things up was frustrating, Collins said, “But it’s part of the process,” required by the insurance company. With more than 50 years of experience in the clothing industry, he said, “You’re very attached to your inventory. You just stand there and you go, ‘My God — how are we going to deal with this,’” he said. As he waits to begin the reconstruction process on the 20-year-old building, Collins acknowledged that “it could have been so much worse,” in terms of injuries to those in the building, as well as the driver of the car, and to the building itself — particularly if the car had gone through the center of the building, rather than the southern end. He said he and his family remain grateful to the support of those who have come in to shop since the accident, as well as those who have “rolled up their sleeves” in the aftermath and offered to help in other ways.
