TORIAL
In Key West, Kindness Is Everywhere
I have been in the market for
a bicycle. Usually, I will ride my
husband’s three-wheeler (I found it
at a yard sale five years ago) beside
Summer, our 7-year-old daughter. Or
lately, I have been running beside her
while she pedals along; poor Summer
rides snail-slow when this happens.
Last week, we browsed the shelves
of the local bike shops and Kmart
looking for a suitable choice for my
new wheels, but none sang to me.
Over the weekend, Travis and I
had the pleasure of taking photos
and attending the Love Fund Ball at
the Westin. (See pictures of the event
inside this issue.) And, the lockerroom-speech local entrepreneur,
writer, and former president of the
Philadelphia 76ers, Pat Croce, gave
was one of the best guest-speaker
speeches I’ve ever heard.
While looking through the
lavish donations from Key West’s
best shops and hotels to the Love
Fund’s extravagant silent auction,
there it was, the most beautiful pink
bike with a roomy white basket
(my camera fit in it perfectly), the
daintiest little bell and big comfy
looking seat. The silent auction
was about to close and I quickly
contemplated the buy. I sat on the
seat, perfect fit. I wrote my name on
the list and kept a wary eye on my
bid.
As I have written before, Key
West is one of the most generous
cities in the world. Each week there
is a fund-raiser, benefit, charity, or
kids event. And each week there is
a silent auction, raffle, free food and
Download our
Mobile App
drinks -- and it is all donated by the
people in this amazing and giving
community.
Around the same silent auction
table, a couple of Key West’s most
generous people watched over a
couple of their own bids, so I thought.
At last, the bids closed. I was the
proud new owner of a beautiful pink
beach cruiser donated by Key West
Bike Shop to the Love Fund Ball. I
was so happy with my new purchase,
not only because I really, really liked
the bike, but also because now the
money I was spending on the bike
was going to a great local cause. I took
the bike for a quick spin down the
Westin’s hallway ringing the bell, then
sent Travis out to our car to grab our
checkbook.
When he returned, I pranced
over to the table to pay for my new
bike and two other things on which
I had bid. I was told $20. Umm, that
needs another zero and make the two
a three. Nope, someone has already
paid for the bike for you. You just owe
$20 for the other two items. WHAT!
I knew who it was as I ran over, and
the kind-hearted parties pleaded the
fifth. I am very thankful for their
generosity.
Summer and I spent the weekend
exploring the island, and she was
happy to go much faster than snailpace. Now, it’s our time to pay it
forward.
Stay colorful, Key West.

Bank Celebrates Fall Semester at
FKCC
Remembering Regina and
Charlie Robinson
By Bob Russell
In July, two of our favorite locals,
husband and wife, died only 17 days
apart. Charlie and Regina Robinson
were both well-known guests at
local restaurants.
Charlie, who died on
July 11, was also a wellknown businessman. He
was best known from Mel
and Charlie’s Amoco and
Car Wash, The Bicycle
Center and Keys Moped and
Scooter on Truman Avenue
across from CVS with the
huge American flag he was
so proud to display.
Regina, who died on July
28, had moved to the Keys
in 1985, where she became
an avid fisher-woman and
patron of the Sugarloaf
Lodge. She loved playing
bingo at Miccosukee.
A wonderful server at
the lodge and the former
Raimondo’s Italian
Restaurant in Cudjoe, she
was an awesome cook and
loved entertaining family
and friends.
True friends to everyone who
knew them, they are both sorely
missed and loved.
First State Bank of the Florida
Keys supported Florida Keys
Community College’s observance of
the fall semester at the college’s Key
West campus.
The event featured educational
expos, a barbecue and vendors.
The bank had a booth at the
event with free giveaways for the
students and faculty and three gift
card prizes.
First State Bank’s Lauren Mongelli and Yeleini Valle present two of the prizes to local FKCC
students.

A Tribute to the Cutter Ingham
Photos by Mark Allen
Built in 1936, the Coast Guard
cutter Ingham was launched at the
Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, In the
early years, it operated out of Seattle,
patrolling the Bering Sea. In 1940,
it was assigned to the Neutrality
Patrol in the Atlantic. In 1941, it
performed 31 convoys in the
North Atlantic and sank U-Boat
626, later performing convoys to
the Mediterranean and Africa.
In 1944, the Ingham was
reassigned to the Pacific and
served as a command ship in
the 7th Fleet. After World War II, it
later served in Vietnam, earning two
Presidential Unit Citations.
In 1985, the Ingham became
the oldest active-duty and
most decorated Naval vessel
serving the United States. It was
decommissioned in 1988 after 52
year of service.
The ship is open Monday through
Saturday until 4 p.m. in the Truman
Annex waterfront at the foot of
Southard Street.

An Unforgettable Day to Remember
By Chris Belland
It amazes me to think that this past
Saturday was the 30th Annual Day To
Remember. The first time we did this,
I brought my second oldest child who
was then 7. Today, he has two children, 7 and 12. My, how time flies!
For those of you not familiar with
A Day To Remember, it was started
by our company, Old Town Trolley, in
1994, as an idea of one of our CAST
members, Laura Butler. The idea was
that many of our seniors who have
lived in Key West and have known one
another their whole lives are now separated in convalescent homes, nursing
homes and retirement centers.
Friends they grew up with and
knew as kids simply do not get to see
one another that much anymore. We
thought it would be a glorious idea to
have this one event every year, at which
they have an opportunity to see one
another and be honored and entertained as the builders of our city. It is
something our company is proud of,
even more so because we have managed to do it through good times and
bad for 30 years.
We took lots of pictures and I do
not know if they will be included in
this edition of Conch Color, but I hope
so. Just in case, let me at least tell you a
little about the day.
First of all, as we have been for
several years, we were hosted by the
Doubletree Grand Key Resort through
the help of manager Michael Knowles.
Thanks, Mike. We were able to reinstitute the tradition of the Red Shawl
Ladies of years ago by recruiting three
teachers from Poinciana Elementary
School, Dawn Albury, Vickie Curry
and Kim Wiedner. Boy Scout Troops
573 and 578 served a Cuban Conch
lunch of pulled pork, black beans, yellow rice and plantains while we were
entertained by the Blessed Community
Choral Group.
It was good to see
the leaders of tomorrow
serving the leaders of
yesterday. George Fernandez was there with the
butterflies from the Key
West Butterfly and Nature
Conservatory. Duane
Scott (a.k.a. Bongo), an
island-looking steel drum
player who I didn’t learn
until that very day is from
Connecticut, played island
music while the famous
Smegdley, who retired
from performing at the
sunset celebration but
came out for this event,
flitted around making
balloon hearts, hats and
all manner of animals and birds to the
delight of the audience.
A big part of the day is always the
contests for oldest man (Raphael),
oldest woman (Edith), person with
the most children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren (not suprisingly,
Edith again) and the person whose
birthday it was or closest to the date (a
Mrs. Henderson.)
The event was roundly attended
by our city leaders, including mayor
Cates and commissioners Rossi,
Wardlow, Yaniz and Lopez, who were
invited to lead the crowd in singing
“Happy Birthday” to Mrs. Henderson.
We even had Bookie Henriquez, his
wife Judy and the new assistant city
manager, Greg Veliz.
As in several years past, Howard
Livingston performed his sing-along
songs from John Denver and old favorites like “She’ll Be Coming Round
the Mountain.” Everybody joined
in a jam session, including “Bongo”
(the steel drummer from Connecticut), Clayton Lopez and several other
members of the Blessed Community
Choir. They sent everybody home on a
high toe-tapping note. Howard asked
the audience, “How many of you woke
up on an island today?” Of course,
everyone raised their hands, which
inspired the island’s troubadour to
sing his signature song, “I’m Living on
Island Time,” as everyone joined in.
The day was dedicated to Isabelle
Thornton, our perennial Red Shawl
Lady who died this past year, and Marina Mosher, the wife of our partner,
Moe Mosher. We were all reminded
that while we are here for only a short
time, the important thing is the mark
we leave behind. I asked the audience
if they had a good time and if they will
come back next year.
Everyone raised their hand.
