Amphitheater Night
Monkees Tribute starts at 8 tonight
The Missing Links, a tribute to the 1960s rock band and TV
show “The Monkees,” will be featured at 8 tonight, Aug. 25, at the
Amphitheater.
The show is sponsored in part by Miracle Ear.
Donations of pet supplies for the Seal Beach Animal Care Center
will be accepted. The no-kill shelter especially needs quart- and
gallon-size Ziplock bags, trash bags, six-percent chlorine bleach,
hand sanitizer, Wheat Scoop cat litter, dog and cat food and dog toys,
especially ones that squeak. Cash and checks are also welcome. Visit
the SBACC website for its full wish list at www.sbacc.org/wish-list/.
The Missing Links will perform the Monkees top ten hits including: “I’m a Believer,” “I’m Not Your Stepping Stone,” “Valleri,”
“Last Train to Clarksville” and “Daydream Believer.” The band also
performs classic rock songs from 1954-2004, including music from
legendary rock icons like The Beatles, Elvis, Rolling Stones and the
Doors, among others.
John Lennon once called the Monkees the “Marx Brothers” of
rock, and the Missing Links authentically capture the madcap antics
of the original band.
Davy Jones, portrayed by actor Daniel Steven Lopez, is the founding member of the Missing Links. An award-winning actor, writer,
and musician, Danny has appeared in several theater productions,
television shows and motion pictures.
Micky Dolenz is played by singer Ricky Cosentino on the drums.
He has toured all over the world performing with War, Ambrosia,
Gary Wright, The Commodores, Cool and the Gang, and Earth Wind
and Fire. Ricky is also a successful song writer, penning jingles for
movies and television.
Peter Tork is played by classically trained pianist Tommy Cosentino. A multi-talented keyboardist and bassist, Tommy is the band’s
musical director. He has performed with REO Speedwagon, Kool
and the Gang, and Earth, Wind and Fire.
Mike Nesmith is played by guitar virtuoso Cary Park, a founding member of the rock-country group Boy Howdy. Cary and the
band released three CDs for CMT/TNN, and he has a string of top
10 singles. One of L.A.’s top session guitar players, Cary has toured
and recorded with five-time Grammy winner Bruce Hornsby and
has also worked with Jimmy Messina (Loggins and Messina) and
Randy Meisner (Eagles).
The show is part of the 2016 Leisure World Amphitheater season
now underway with free entertainment every Thursday night until
Sept. 8. Shows start at 8 p.m. until next week when they will begin
at 7:30 p.m.
Residents are welcome to come early to buy dinner from Koffel’s food truck or ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery. Or bring a
picnic for pre-show dining.

The Los Alamitos City Council and the City of Los Alamitos,
home to the best Women’s Olympic Water Polo team in the world,
proudly congratulate the U.S.A. Women’s Olympic Water Polo team.
It made history as the first women’s team to win back-to-back gold
medals at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.
Women’s water polo also earned the first team gold for the U.S.
in the Rio Games.
It defeated Italy 12-5 in a show of domination for a team that
won its second Olympic gold medal in a row. The Americans, also
the reigning world champions, outscored their Rio opponents 73-32,
extending their winning streak to 22 straight games and their 2016
record to 42-2.
When Women’s Water Polo competition was first introduced
as an Olympic sport in 2000, Team USA won its first silver medal.
Over the next two Olympics, the women brought home the bronze
in 2004, silver in 2008, and finally, a gold in 2012.
Los Alamitos has been home to the USA Women’s Water Polo
Team since 1998.
The collaboration between the City of Los Alamitos, USA Water
Polo and the Joint Forces Training Base has proven to be a successful one over the years.
The U.S. has now won a medal in all five Olympics where women
have played water polo.

Senior Patriots for Peace
Peace vigil Aug. 31 to
focus on fracking issue
All are invited to join a peace vigil sponsored by Senior Patriots
for Peace on Aug. 31 from 5-6:30 p.m. on the sidewalk along Seal
Beach Boulevard in front of Leisure World. The focus this month
will be against fracking.
According to “Food and Water Watch,” on May 27, federal agencies lifted the moratorium on offshore fracking and acidizing in the
Santa Barbara Channel, and a permit has already been approved for
acid fracking to start on Aug. 15.
Oil companies have fracked offshore wells hundreds of times
in the ocean near California’s coast, from Seal Beach to the Santa
Barbara Channel.
Studies have shown that at least 10 chemicals routinely used in
offshore fracking operations can be lethal to marine animals, including birds, fish, sea lions and dolphins.
Many others are known carcinogens and damage immune and
nervous systems. Fracking also produces high levels of benzene, a
hazardous chemical, in the air causing pollution as far as seven miles
away from the well.
The chances of these chemicals spilling into local waterways
is high, considering the track record of fracking and other extreme
extraction operations.
Senior Patriots for Peace agrees with the scientific facts that

PERSPECTIVES
Safety First
Scavenging is crime, safety concern
by Eloy Gomez
Safety and Emergency
Coordinator
Scavenging is the act of unauthorized persons
going through recycling or refuse containers,
whether the containers are located on Mutual or
GRF property.
Like illegal dumping, scavenging is a crime
and is taken very seriously. Every year, scavengers
steal thousands of dollars in recyclables from trash
containers which makes recycling programs less Eloy Gomez
efficient. Seal Beach Municipal Code 6.20.130
prohibits unauthorized removal from containers. The Seal Beach
Police Department will issue citations and prosecute violators.
In addition scavengers could be injured when trying to reach for
items in the containers or when walking over glass or other sharp
objects in the large containers.
To help stop this crime, the GRF encourages anyone who encounters a scavenging incident to report it. If you observe someone

Joy Reed
GRF Director
by
A few short years ago my beloved husband of
42 years died unexpectedly. I was an officer on the
board of directors in my mutual and understood
mutual policies, but I did not know what steps I
needed to take when my husband died.
Grief dulled and clouded my thinking and I had
no roadmap to follow. I had questions.
What agencies do I need to contact? Do I need to Joy Reed
contact Leisure World? What do I do next? Am I forgetting something?
I had many questions and felt overwhelmed.
When I was elected to the GRF board of directors one top priority
was to produce a packet that would help shareholders and families
that have lost a loved one in Leisure World.
My voice was heard and the mutual administration committee
formed a subcommittee. I was the chair of that committee along
with GRF Director Kathy Rapp and GRF Director Paula Snowden.
Together we embarked on putting together a simple packet that
includes checklists and information to provide the much-needed
guidance for families that experience the death of a family member
in our community.
The bereavement workbook provides a step-by-step format on
how to maneuver through the first few days after a loss and how to
plan ahead.
We recognized that LW is unique and family members could be

Proposition 64, the California
Marijuana Legalization Initiative, gives voters the choice of
whether or not to legalize adult
use of marijuana and hemp. If
passed, the state would enact
certain sales and cultivation taxes
on marijuana, California’s largest cash crop. The taxes would
raise funds for such purposes as
law enforcement, drug education,
and youth programs. Local areas
would also be able to regulate
and tax.
Proposition 56, the Cigarette
Tax to Fund Healthcare, Tobacco
Use Prevention, Research and
Law Enforcement initiative is
a Constitutional Amendment
and Statute. It would increase
cigarette tax by $2 per pack. A
same tax would also be imposed
on other tobacco products. The
funds raised from these taxes
would be used mostly to bolster
existing healthcare programs as
well as such areas as prevention,
medical research and law enforcement. Revenues would not
be funneled to the general fund,
but would be handled separately.

potluck lunch
Lunch with a Doctor at the Health Care Center will be held at
noon on Wednesday, Aug. 31. The topic by Dr. Sanat Patel will be
“Your Thyroid and How to Keep it Healthy.”
Nearly 6 percent of the U.S. population, or 12.2 million people,
have thyroid disease. The thyroid is essential for each cell in the
body to work right. When the thyroid isn’t working correctly, it can
cause body functions to slow down. Some thyroid conditions are
hard to detect because they mimic other diseases, such as dementia
or depression.
This event is open to all residents and is part of a monthly series.
Every month, the community is invited to learn about a health
topic over a complimentary breakfast or lunch. Seating is limited,
and reservations are required.
For more information and to register, call the HCC at 795-6204.
Grief Support Group
Program begins on Sept.13
Leisure World residents are invited to join a 10-week grief support group, sponsored by Pathways, from 10-11:30 a.m. beginning
Sept. 13. The series continues through Nov. 5.
Many residents who have participated in the last two groups have
found the experience to be helpful and supportive.
One of the best ways to deal with grief is to be surrounded by a
supportive community.
The support programs provide a safe place to process feelings
with others who have experienced the death of a loved one.
Each week a new topic will be introduced.
For more information about the free program or any other support
services, contact Cindy Tostado, Golden Rain Foundation member

NSGA
Seniors benefit from taking
part in organized leagues
The National Senior Games
Association (NSGA) represents
one of the most noteworthy senior
sports leagues, as well as the largest multi-sport games for older
adults in the world.
Formed in 1985, the NSGA is
a nonprofit organization committed to encouraging senior citizens
to live a healthy lifestyle.
Anyone over 50 is allowed to
participate.
The games are held biannually and feature 19 events,
including archery, cycling and
swimming.
The 2015 games last summer,
lured more than 2,000 attendees.
The benefits of senior sports
leagues are numerous.
Exercise improves not just
physical health, but also mental
and emotional health.
There are many positive impacts on seniors who participate
in organized sports leagues.
The physical benefits of taking
part in sports are among the most
obvious, but are also among the
most notable.
A 2014 Danish study found
that men between the ages of 6375 reaped many physical benefits
from engaging in soccer training
two hours per week for a year over
those of the same age who did not.
These benefits included increased oxygen intake and better
performance.
Additionally, exercise also
helps with weight control and
heart health, and is even linked
to increasing longevity of life.
Participating in sports leagues
also helps to combat feelings of
isolation and low self-value that
often arise in old age.
Participation in team or individual sports have proven to
increase self-esteem.

Eckart Preu is new conductor Anniversary dance
Following a two-year search
that brought nine guest conductors to the stage of the Long Beach
Performing Arts Center, Long
Beach Symphony announced last
week that it has selected Eckart
Preu (rhymes with “joy”) to take
the helm. He has a three-year
contract beginning with the 201718 season.
Maestro Preu says he decided
to accept the position with Long
Beach Symphony “because of
its pure excellence, an excellence that extends not only to the
amazing quality of its musicians,
but also to the excellence in how
its staff and volunteers run the
organization.”
Maestro Preu will serve as
music director designate during
the 2016-17 season, returning
to Long Beach to conduct the
Symphony Concerts for Young
People on Feb. 1 and 2 for over
12,000 Long Beach Unified 4th
and 5th graders. That week, he will also
conduct Berlioz’s magnificent
Symphonie fantastique and SaintSaens’ Danse macabre as well as
Dukas’ classic, “The Sorcerer’s
Apprentice” at the Feb. 4 Classical concert at the Long Beach
Performing Arts Center, Terrace
Theater. Tickets will go on sale Sept.
10. Maestro Preu will continue
to serve as music director of the
Spokane Symphony but will step
down from his current position
with the Stamford Symphony
next year.
Commencing in the 20172018 season, he will take on his
full time music director position,
and will program and conduct all
six Classical series concerts, all
youth concerts and one POPS!
concert annually.
Maestro Preu’s philosophy
on classical music complements
the demographic make-up and
cultural vibrancy of the Long
Beach community.
Paralleling the Symphony’s
current efforts to reach out to
diverse segments of the city with
its Sounds and Spaces program,
Maestro Preu believes that classical music can be accessible and
enjoyable for everyone.
Preu was born in Erfurt, a
town that was part of the German
Democratic Republic (East Germany). He and his older brother
grew up with a musically-inclined
father who started them on music
lessons early in life. At age 10, they were enrolled
in the Dresdner Kreuzchor
(Dresden Boys’ Choir), one of
the world’s oldest and most famous boys’ choirs and boarding
schools.
He earned a master’s degree in
conducting from the Hochschule
fuer Musik in Weimar.
In 1996, Preu won the National
Conducting Competition of the
German Academic Exchange
Service, which afforded him the
opportunity to come to the United
States for graduate studies at the
Hartt School of Music in Connecticut. Karlton Residential Care

Community Karaoke
Four members celebrate birthdays
Banjo player Jim Jones has been at it for over 65 years
The Leisure World Dixieland Jazz Band will perform
its next concert at 6:30 p.m. on
Oct. 5 in Clubhouse 4.
Banjo player Jim Jones has
been playing with the band for
over five years.
He often sings, but his true
claim to fame is his humor.
He’s a true raconteur and historian on all the Dixieland tunes.
The audience appreciates him
sharing his knowledge and
his storytelling to bring the
music’s rich history alive.
Jones has been playing the
banjo for over 65 years. He
also plays regularly in other
bands.
There was an excellent
turnout at the band’s last performance. It played in tribute to band
co-founder Don Hodges, who
recently died. As a special
treat, Luis Schillaci, the other
co-founder who hasn’t been
able to play with the band in
a while, made an appearance. Everyone was happy to
hear him on the trumpet again.

Last week, Community Karaoke held a big birthday celebration
for four members: Byong and Yong Choi, Doris Edwards and Ellie
Menteer. There was lots of cake and congratulations. Vickie Van Ert
sang “Sixteen Candles,” changing the lyrics to “93 candles” in honor
of her mother’s birthday. Byong Choi sang “Yesterday When I Was
Young” for him and his wife.
First-time singers were Diane
Choi, doing a nice “Changing
Partners”; Raul Cadillo, who sang
a peppy “Everyday”; and Susan
Kelleghan, who sang “The Rose.”
Everyone got a nice welcome of
applause.
Some others taking the stage
were Bob Barnum, who sang
“Pretty Woman”; Linn Atkinson,
“A Certain Smile”; Carolyn Mottola, “Walk In The Garden”; Tino

Gertie Burin hosted the second annual Neighborhood Day Party
for residents of Mutual 6. It was even more successful than last
year’s picnic.
She was also celebrating her 77th birthday and 77 guests attended
the event. Burin provided tables with umbrellas and all were decorated with lovely centerpieces. Home-cooked dishes brought to the
potluck by guests filled three long tables. Grillmaster John Coultrop
roasted the hot dogs to perfection.
Burin expressed a special thank you to Kaye Huff and the Hui O
Hula dancers who entertained with their traditional dancing. Many
guests joined the group and had their first hula lesson. It was lots of
fun and added to the celebration. The Hui O Hula ladies frequently
perform for many of the organizations in Leisure World, however,
this was the first time they appeared for a mutual party that was not
held in a clubhouse.
Frank Destra performed his comic karaoke routine, which was
enjoyed by all. Phillip No and Sam Yim serenaded the guests with
their guitars and sang in English and Korean.
This was a wonderful way to meet new neighbors and make new
friends. Burin challenges other mutuals to hold their own potlucks
to foster friendship and camaraderie within the community.

STORIES: CELEBRATING AMERICA’S WILDERNESS
Cindy Gannon, circa 1940s, Sequoia National Park
Jumping Jojo Weingart shows off the Delicate Arch
in 2013.
Crater Lake Historic Ranger presents a talk to visitors
at the Rim of Crater Lake, Keith Kelsay’s favorite.
Pauline Siler’s grandkids at Yosemite.
We were very comfortable. In case of rain, we had a
tarp to protect us.
The next morning, when we got our grub box down,
we saw that a package of nuts was completely empty and
the center of my loaf of bread was gone.
Those little creatures had carried all that food away
in their mouths as we slept.
The only way they could have gotten to the food box
was by way of our bed posts and under the bed slats.
I caught a golden trout the next day.
Cindy Gannon
Sequoia National Park
A trip to see the giant redwoods in Sequoia National
Park in the 1940s was a wonderful family outing. Driving the car through the “Fallen Tunnel” log on Crescent
Meadow Road was so exciting for a 6-year-old.
A giant sequoia fell across the Crescent Meadow Road
in late 1937 as a result of “natural causes,” according to
the National Park Service. The following summer, a tunnel was cut through the fallen log as a visitor attraction.
When it fell, the tree stood 275 feet high and was 21 feet
in diameter at the base. The tree’s age probably exceeded
2,000 years.
As I remember, dad would pack up the 1949 Ford with
mother and I for a trip to General Grant Forest not far from
our home in Tulare, California. Dad would bring along
the big old cast iron skillet and cook breakfast. I can still
smell it to this day.
Keith Kelsay
Crater Lake, 1948
Crater Lake National Park is my favorite memory as
my father worked there for several years during my high
school years. We lived at the park for two summers, and
my mother, sister and I commuted from Klamath Falls
in the winter.
We left Friday evening bundled up under a tarp in the
back of a government pickup that could handle the heavy
snow. Snow piled so high that I could walk outside my
attic window. This is where I learned to ski.
One summer, I captured a tiny bear cub who wandered into a trash can outside our back door. Mama bear
immediately came over and sent the cub up the nearest
tree with a good swat. It would not have been nearly as
much fun if she had charged the door instead of the cub.
Jay Young
Yosemite National Park
My nickname as a kid was “the Yosemite Kid” because it was my favorite national park. I spent the first
40 years of my life going to Yosemite in the summer. I
worked at Camp Curry as a soda jerk for six summers
while going to high school and college. I even helped
push over the fire fall from time to time.
There is something in your heart that speaks to the
beauty of nature.
Yosemite did that for me.
I’ve hiked almost every John Muir trail and been to the
top of Half Dome five times. I started going to Yosemite
as a young boy in the 1930s with my parents and many
cousins. We would camp along the Merced River sideby-side while blocking off a large portion of the river
by hanging blankets at the back of our camps. I am sure
that is why blocking access to the river was later banned.
We would spend a month camping, hiking, rafting,
fishing and having fun with all my cousins.
My dad was a minister and would preach one or two
Sundays at the chapel by the old village store.
During World War II, gasoline was rationed. You
normally got an “A” sticker but if you did a lot driving
with your job, you could get a “C” sticker, which gave
you more gas. My dad was a minister and got a “C”
sticker, which gave us enough gas to drive to Yosemite
during the summer.
My dad felt guilty driving that far with camping gear
piled on top and bikes on the front and back bumpers of
our 38 Nash. There were no freeways in those days. We
drove on back roads at night from Southern California
through Bakersfield and Fresno—there were no
freeways in those days—so no one would see us
going camping. We would arrive in Yosemite about
5 in the morning. That was good because we could
find better spots on the river as people were packing up to leave.
I got married in 1953, and, of course, we spent
our honeymoon in Yosemite, followed by 28 years
of going there with my family. Finally my wife said
there are other places in the world that are beautiful
and insisted we start traveling.
Since then, we have been to 88 countries, taken
16 cruises and driven our motorhomes over 360,000
miles across the country and through Canada and
Mexico. We do get back to Yosemite once in a
while. Our family returned there this summer to
celebrate my 85th birthday with dinner at the famed
Ahwahnee Hotel.

Arches National Park
My favorite National Parks are mostly in Utah.
NEWS
Kate Pedigo cooking with cast iron at Yellowstone.
I like Delicate Arch at Arches National Park the best
because when I was there in 2009 in the heat of the summer, I was dehydrated and almost fainted. A park ranger
showed up—out of nowhere—and gave me some water.
She was so friendly and caring that her worksite is now
my favorite.
For those who have never visited, Delicate Arch is
the most recognizable arch in Arches National Park, and
perhaps anywhere in the world.
It also happens to be located along one of the most
dynamic hiking trails within Arches National Park. More
than 480 feet above the parking lot and trailhead in the
valley below, Delicate Arch is hidden in a bowl at the
top of one of the park’s famous sandstone fins.
Barbara Houck
Yosemite
In 1957, my husband, Roy, and I owned a used grey
1952 Cadillac convertible. I really loved that car and sure
wish I had it now.
One September, at the opening of deer season, we went
hunting and camped near Dead Man’s Creek, just off the
395 near Mammoth, where we met more of Roy’s family.
They were wilderness lovers, so there were no tents, just
sleeping bags on a thick mattress of pine needles.
We did not have any luck finding any deer, and decided
to go over Tioga Pass to Yosemite National Park. I fell
in love with scenery on that road, and made many trips
years later over the same road.
When we arrived at the entrance to the park, the
rangers identified us as hunters, and wired up our guns
for the time we were in Yosemite. They also told us that
when we camped at night, we should put the top down
on the convertible, as the bears had a habit of ripping
the tops to get at food.
When we got down to Yosemite Valley, we found a
campsite, and parked the car with the top down. We were
able to enjoy the fire falls that night. Hot embers of red
bark fir were released from the top of Glacier Point to
fall 3,000 feet down to resemble a glowing waterfall. It
was discontinued in 1968, because it was not a natural
occurrence, and more obviously now, a fire hazard.
At the campground everyone settled in for the night
in their sleeping bags. (We didn’t have the nice pine
needle mattresses, and the ground was a bit hard, but
we managed).
About midnight we were awakened by a ruckus. It
seems the bears were visiting. My companions all slept
in their underwear, but I preferred PJs. So when the
disturbance came, I was the one elected to go turn on
the lights in the Cadillac to see if we could see what was
happening. I rushed over to the car, got in, and turned
on the headlights. Right in front of the car about 10 feet
away was a bear happily ripping apart a cooler. He also
had found a can of beans. With one swat of his paw, he
smashed the can and was eating the beans. Needless to
say, I wasn’t moving.
After a while, people and rangers started banging on
trash lids and cans, to scare the bears away. It worked,
and gradually, they all went on their way. Needless to
say, there wasn’t much more sleep that night, and we
were up early to head back home.
Pauline Siler
Yosemite
Our family spent Thanksgiving in Yosemite for
several years. One year my oldest son proposed to his
wife.One summer my youngest son climbed to the top
of Nevada Falls to propose, and on my 80th birthday in
November, they put me up at the Ahwahnee Hotel, and
the entire family—sons, daughters, in-laws and grandchildren—joined together for a celebration. It’s probably
the last time every family member will be together. What
a special time we had.

Anderson, Ruth
Nov. 18, 1921 – Aug. 13, 2016
Ruth Anderson went to be
with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on
Aug. 13, 2016.
She was surrounded by her
family in her
home and was
three months
shy of her 95th
birthday.
Ruth was
born and raised
in Manhattan Beach, California,
and was the fifth of six children
born to Albert and Elizabeth Pettitt, who migrated from England
by way of Canada in 1920.
Ruth was an early member
of the Orthodox Presbyterian
Church and remained a member
until her death. She was a wonderful mother and advisor to her
children. She brought them up
in the way of the Lord and lived
a God-centered Christian life by
example. She was an inspiration
and a source of wisdom to those
who knew her well. She was “a
child of the king.”
Ruth retired from Northrop
Aircraft after many years of
service. She spent her later years
as a resident of Leisure World in
Seal Beach.
For over four years of her life,
Ruth had a live-in caregiver, Aida
Albos, who tirelessly devoted her
time and energy in taking great
care of her. Thank you to Aida,
and her husband Tag, for showing so much love and care over
the years.
Ruth is survived by her three
children, Elizabeth (John) Novinger of Cypress, California;
John (Terry) Anderson of San
Diego, California; Gregory
Anderson of Cypress, California. She also leaves behind
seven grandchildren and 10 greatgrandchildren.
•••
Coffee, Patrick
1928- 2016

15, 2016, at home in Seal Beach.
He was 88.
He was
born on March
16, 1928, in
Florida.
Patrick
was a husband,
father, teacher,
musician, actor, author, and
artist. He will be greatly missed.
Patrick is survived by his
wife, Gao Wa; his son, Robert,
two daughters, Dwinelle and
Vivian; 10 grandchildren and 11
great-grandchildren.
He was predeceased by his
daughter Mary.
The OBITUARIES deadline is 4 p.m.,
