Bond measure for police station should

be on November ballot
by Peter Weinberger
hile many of us were following the

news of Pomona Colleges bid to build
a new museum of art and move the
Renwick House, two groups were working hard on
familiar bond measures for a Claremont vote. The
looming issue now is whether one or both measures
will be ready in time for the November ballot.
In some respects, the police station ad hoc committee and the
Claremont Unified School District (CUSD) are in the same boat.
Both had floated bond measures to voters before, and both were
soundly defeated. Its clear this time around these groups are trying to learn from previous mistakes, and are focused on getting a
clear picture of the publics mood to pass these important measures.
CUSD seems right on track to file a $58 million bond by the July
26 deadline for a November vote. CUSD leadership has organized
dozens of community meetings to educate (and soft sell) residents,
while getting feedback along the way. This process is a ton of work,
but should also serve as a model for reaching out to the community.
As we reported, with the school board unanimously in favor of
the bond, Claremonters should expect to see a measure on the ballot in 2016.
Given the cost, logistics and varied public opinion for a new police station, producing a revamped, lower-cost bond measure is a
difficult task. But there is public concern over the pace of the
progress. Some have said the time has already passed to make the
November ballot, given the slow movement of the committee so
far. Its also been difficult to get all ad hoc members in attendance
at meetings. The last meetings were held on April 20 and June 1,
with the next one not scheduled until June 29.
Why is November so important? The economy. Although one
can always say the US economy should be better, judging from the
feedback we get from business owners and residents, I can personally say the Claremont economy is quite healthy. We have made
huge progress getting through the recession, the city budget is in
good shape, the housing market remains strong, and the Village (especially the west side) has seen solid growth over the past few years
with more to come.
After November, a new president will take over, with many feel-
ing angst no matter who is elected. And there are some signs the
economy is slowing down. My point is strike while the economy
is on strong footing and voters are more likely to approve capital
expenditures.
Even though Claremont said no to the police station bond last
year, theres a clear understanding the department needs a new
building. The situation is critical. Its a priority for many people like
myself, who really want to vote yes for our police department.
So what can be done to not only give voters a bond they will approve, but to get the measure on the ballot in time? The frequency
of the ad hoc meeting schedule clearly needs to be increased, and
I encourage the committee to look at ways to make that happen.
But another key element rests in the hands of the Claremont Colleges. During the discussions about moving the Renwick House,
many people talked about the importance of town and gown relations and how the Colleges contribute to the overall good of the
community.
At the request of the city, the Claremont University Consortium,
representing the Claremont Colleges, said they would donate $1
million toward the new police station. That is a generous offer and
one that should not be ignored. But its not enough. In fact, its not
nearly enough.
If the Claremont Colleges donated closer to $10 million, this
would not only help fast-track getting a proposal completed, but
give the ad hoc committee more financial flexibility to create a
measure residents can live with. The good news is, a CUC representative has said publicly that the Colleges are willing to talk. Its
now up to city staff to take quick action to get a fair deal made.
With $10 million in the bank, there will be more voters on board.
It could change the dynamics of everything. This is a chance for
the Claremont Colleges to contribute to a building that will serve
the entire community. Lets show Claremont residents what town
and gown really means.

Ben Harper Grammy award stolen from store, recovered by police
Grammy award belonging to musician Ben Harper was returned after

a Rancho Cucamonga man stole it
from the Folk Music Center on June 2.
The theft occurred just before noon at the shop on the
200 block of Yale Avenue, according to Lt. Mike Ciszek
of the Claremont Police Department. Stacy Gipson, 22,
was arrested after a foot pursuit by police and Folk ZMusic Center employee Jerry OSullivan.
Ellen Harper Verdries, owner of the Folk Music Center and Mr. Harpers mother, told the COURIER that Mr.
Gipson asked to take a picture of the Grammy, which was
sitting on a shelf behind the counter.
The fellow took a photo and lunged across the counter
and grabbed it and ran out of the door, Ms. Harper Verdries said.
Mr. OSullivan immediately chased the suspect, who
ran out the door and up the street through Shelton Park.

Folk Music Center employee Jerry OSullivan chased
down a thief who stole Ben Harpers Grammy award
from the store last Thursday. The Grammy had been
on display at the Village store for over a decade but
has now been moved to an undisclosed location.
POLICE BLOTTER
Wednesday, June 1
While on patrol, Claremont police officers recognized a car theyd seen two
weeks ago, when a subject fled on foot
from police after getting pulled over,
throwing a gun away in the process.
While patrolling near Towne Avenue
and Scripps Drive, police saw the car,
driven by 24-year-old Ivan Mantellino,
according to Lt. Mike Ciszek. Police
pulled the driver over and did a background check on Mr. Mantellino, who
had not been issued a drivers license
and was currently on parole. The officers found methamphetamine and a
stolen firearm in the vehicle. Mr. Mantellino was arrested on charges of being
a felon in possession of a firearm, possession of narcotics and possession of a
stolen firearm. He was transported to
CPD jail.
Thursday, June 2
Stephanie Warren, a 37-year-old
woman who was reported missing after
walking away from the Claremont
Sheltered Care Center, was found on
Thursday afternoon. Ms. Warren re-
turned to the center, a home for developmentally disabled adults on the 300
block of Indian Hill Boulevard, around
1:15 p.m. on her own, according to Lt.
Ciszek. No additional information was
available regarding the incident.

Police are looking for a man who left
Vons without paying for his groceries.
The theft happened just before 9 p.m.,
when the shoplifter entered the store,
filled the cart with around $500 worth
of groceries and left the scene in a gray
Chevy sedan, according to Lt. Ciszek.
The man is described as Caucasian,
around 40 years old, 5-foot-10 and 200
pounds. He was wearing a black shirt,
black and gray shorts and a black and
gray hat. Anyone with information is
urged to contact the Claremont Police
Department at (909) 399-5411.

Claremont police conducted a DUI
checkpoint at the intersection of
Foothill Boulevard and Dartmouth Avenue Thursday night. During the checkpoint, which lasted from 7 p.m. to 1
a.m., officers netted six arrests for vari-
leges on the north corner of Bonita and College, Mr.

OSullivan said. He looked really panicked, like he was
scrambling.
Officers eventually found Mr. Gipson and arrested
him. He initially gave a false ID, and was arrested for
grand theft, giving false information to a police officer and
for three outstanding warrants, according to Lt. Ciszek.
The Grammy was later found in a black trash bag, still
in good condition, and was returned to the music shop.
I have to say, it was an emotional moment for me,
Ms. Harper Verdries said.
Mr. OSullivan said customers have asked to look at or
take pictures of the Grammy, although its not a regular
occurance.
I didnt put it in [Mr. Gipsons] hands, I had it on the
counter and I was close to him but he just lunged, he said.
Mr. OSullivan said that Mr. Harper arrived at the
shop after the incident and picked up the Grammy. A picture of the trophy will be placed in the spot where the
award once stood.

ous charges, including driving with a

suspended license, warrants and possession of drugs or paraphernalia, according to Lt. Ciszek. No arrests were made
for DUI. In all, 1,035 cars were
screened. Another checkpoint is scheduled to take place at an undisclosed location on Friday, June 10.
Friday, June 3
Kekoa Estrada, 22, collided with a
stopped vehicle at the intersection of
Indian Hill Boulevard and San Jose Avenue around 9 p.m. When police arrived, Mr. Estrada admitted to police
that he was huffing an unknown inhalant at the time of the accident. Mr.
Estrada, a La Puente resident, was arrested for DUI and was transported to
CPD jail, where he was held for detox
and released.
Sunday, June 5
An apparently impatient driver repeatedly rammed the back bumper of a
car in front of him while waiting in a
drive-thru at McDonalds. Just before 3
a.m. at the Chevron/McDonalds on the
800 block of south Indian Hill Boulevard, a gray Toyota Corolla driven by
26-year-old Franklin Iraheta of Pomona
played bumper cars with a green Chevy

Cavalier in the drive thru lane, according to Lt. Ciszek. When officers arrived
and witnessed the incident, they
quickly determined Mr. Iraheta was
drunk. He was arrested for driving
under the influence and battery and was
transported to CPD jail.

One relationship crashed and burned
near the intersection of Bonita and
Mountain Avenues. Sherri Angster, 50,
of La Verne followed her ex-girlfriends
car and rammed her vehicle with her
pickup truck. Before the crash, the victim noticed she was being followed and
pulled into a parking lot, where Ms.
Angster tried to block her from backing
out of a parking space. The victim managed to drive away, with Ms. Angster
following, and entered an apartment
complex, where Ms. Angster reportedly
rammed her car, according to Lt.
Ciszek.
Ms. Angster fled the scene, but was
apprehended by police around 9:30
p.m. She was arrested for assault with a
deadly weapon and was transported to
CPD jail. No injuries were reported in
the altercation.

EDUCATION
CHS grads return to their elementary school, providing inspiration

Theres a saying: You cant go home again.
While it may often hold true, this wasnt the case on
Tuesday when a delegation of Claremont High School
seniors, all Mountain View alums, stopped by the elementary school just two days before their graduation.
The Mountain View kids, seated in chairs lining the
pathway in front of the school, held their hands out to
give high and low fives to the eight members of the
Wolfpack, who officially turned their tassels on Thursday evening.
The idea behind the visit was to provide inspiration
for the younger students while allowing the seniors to
acknowledge where it all started.
Fourth grade teacher Heather Stradley, who has
taught for nearly 20 years at Mountain View, was particularly edified to see the returning students.
CHS track makes a

mark in state meet
or the first time since 2013, Claremont High School track and field
competed in the State Championships, sending three athletes to the elite
competition.
Sophomore Cameron Kading brought home a
first-place trophy in the Paralympic 100-meter
sprint, which was a very proud moment for his
coach, Veronica Amarasekara. It was the first time
the state meet has included Paralympic events, so it
was particularly rewarding to get a first place.
It kind of blends both of my jobs, said coach
Amarasekara, who is a special education teacher at
Danbury.
The meet, which is held at Veterans Stadium in
Clovis, runs for two days with the prelims on Friday
and the finals on Saturday.
Annie Boos ran her second- and third-fastest
times during the 1600-meter event. Her times were
good enough to achieve seventh place, which unfortunately, was one place short of a podium appearance.
Ryan Renken got 13th place in a very fast 3200meter race. The junior will almost certainly beat his
own best times next season and will be a top contender in cross-country as well.
This was a great way to cap a great season, said
Coach Amarasekara.
Also at the state meet was her daughter Didi
Amarasekara, who ran the 300-meter hurdles. It
was the best race of her high school career. She was
just two-tenths of a second from qualifying [for finals], said coach Amarasekara. Didi graduated this
year from Etiwanda High and will attend University
of California of Riverside in fall.
It was a nice reward for Coach Amarasekara to see
both her daughter and three Claremont runners compete at the state level, because she very nearly quit
years ago when her son started at Etiwanda High
School. She said a member of the Claremont team
that year talked her out of quitting by saying she
could cheer for her son during his races, and go back
to coaching the team when he finished (Claremont
was in the same league as Etiwanda back then).
Beginning almost immediately, Coach Amarasekara will start her season as a heptathlete in
masters track and field. She has been competing for
17 years, which is not without some hardships due
to injuries she suffered in a car accident in the early
90s.

The beard
by Debbie Carini
hen my son was little, he used to

sit in the tub and make a beard
out of bubble bath.
Hed daub the bubbles around his chin, up his cheeks

and across his upper lip, then smile and shout, Look at
me, Im Santa! Or an old man, or a gnome. I couldnt
imagine that the carrot-topped toddler with the soapy grin
would grow up to be a young man who would sport ginger-toned facial hair and actually look a lot like the young
Kris Kringle in the 1970 stop-motion animated TV special, Santa Claus is Comin to Town.
Last month, he graduated from the University of Puget
Sound in Tacoma, Washington, and in celebration of that
event, eight of us (two grandmas, one grandpa, two
cousins, a sister, a mom and a dad) gathered in a rented
home on a bay in Gig Harbor.
The grandpa was the first to grumble about the beard:
You need to get rid of that thing. You look like youve
been stranded in the mountains.
Then the grandma from Florida chimed in: Are you
going to graduate like that?!
Its a funny thing when your little boy is suddenly a
bearded man standing before youyou wonder where all
the years went.

Its so easy to remember pushing a tuft of that red hair
out of his eyes while he sat on the couch and watched
Barney, seriously sucking his thumb and breathing into

was amazed by the highheeled shoes. Last weekend

at the baccalaureate service
for Claremont and San Antonio
High School graduates, many
young women wore high-heeled
shoes. There was a time when
women in my circle did not
wear heels as a matter of feminist principle. But times change.
The young women and men at the
Claremont Interfaith Council-sponsored
baccalaureate service looked poised and
confident, even sophisticated. I remembered my own high school graduation in
southeastern Wisconsin over 40 years ago.
I do not believe that my classmates and I
were quite so poised, confident or sophisticated. Yet appearances can be deceiving.
Venturing into the great unknown may
stir anxiety in even the most centered and
ing front teeth whose pants required an inner elastic

waist to stay put? And where was the pre-teen in a jacket
and tie who self-confidently approached young ladies
much taller than him for a dance at cotillion?
In truth, I knew all those iterations of that boy were
standing right before me, in the handsome young man
taking all the abuse about his ginger-toned facial hair.
He is kind and loving, curious about the world and
ready to take on challenges much larger than term papers
and final exams. Maybe the beard just made him look too
much like a man, and thats a shocking thing to grandparents. And even to parents.
Theres a melancholy to knowing that you will probably never again be shredding the white part of zucchini
surreptitiously into a pancake so that a vitamin or two will
register in his blood stream. But, by the same token,
there is much to look forward to. And as he accepted his
diploma on graduation day, under cloudy northwestern
skies, his future looked bright and, his face even
brighterthe beard was gone.
A new man was emerging under the mortarboard and
tassel, ready for the next adventure. His smile gave me all
the confidence in him I needed. I know hell be just fine.

were a few butterflies fluttering in the
stomachs of the graduatesfeelings possibly shared by their families and friends
as well.
At their best, religious traditions help us
move into the unknown with grace and
trust. Religious traditions also help us
shape the future into which we move.
Prophetic voices from many religious traditions remind us there is room for improvement in how society is organized.
We can learn to share. We can learn to take
turns. We can do our part to institutionalize kindness.
Seeing the bright faces of the high
school graduates held special meaning for
me because at the end of this month, I am
retiring from full-time parish ministry. I
am a woman wearing comfortable shoes
as I step back while others are stepping

forward, some of them wearing high
heels. The call to ministry, the call to be of
service, will continue to guide me. However, ministry and service will look different and will occur at a different pace.
Graduates are heading into their unknown. Retirees are heading into our unknown. We offer diverse blessings to the
world. The sensitive among us receive diverse blessings. Whether younger or older,
we have contributions to make and bounty
to receive. Many things could be said
about our imperfect world, and we may
not agree on diagnosis or cure. We can
agree on this, however: Our world is
multigenerational. We live among people
of all ages.
Wisdom does not automatically accrue
to those who are older. Yet the words of
Unitarian minister Kenneth Patton ring

true to my ears, Every year requires more
courage to live productively, uncompromising, committed, relentlessly hopeful.
The courage of age is sublime idiocy: the
less hope we have for ultimate victory,
successful revolutions, the more courage
we must muster. We correct mistakes before we make them, sloughing chit-chat.
Having done many things, we know the
few things worth doing. Wisdom is salvage, an economy and style learned in
living. If we recover small energies, the
last years can be the best.
May our shoes fit the occasion and the
religious task at hand. May they be steeltoed shoes when appropriate. And may
they be dancing shoes often.
Rev. Ann Schranz is the outgoing president
of the Claremont Interfaith Council and is
retiring from Monte Vista Unitarian Universalist Congregation.
Claremont Heritage
Dear Editor:
I am deeply grateful to the men and
women who put in countless hours organizing and presenting activities throughout the year on behalf of our beautiful
city. I realize serving on community committees is often a thankless job and I, for
one, would like to remedy that right now.
I have so enjoyed the guided walks,
home tours, evening affairs and articles in
the COURIER titled From the Files of
Claremont Heritage.
Primarily, however, I appreciate your
effort in the pursuit of preserving what is
unique and special about Claremont. In
many ways, the result of your efforts reflect the heart and soul of Claremont.
I appreciate knowing we have an organization that considers, and does its best,
to protect our history and the ambience of
our fine city. I applaud the connections you
help create from past to present and present to future. Thank you, Claremont Heritage, for you are truly good stewards of
this special place we call home.

Not that transparent

Dear Editor:
The readers comment from Ms.
Conard DesMarais in last weeks
COURIER regarding The war on trees
illustrates processes being used by the city
manager that have the outward appearance of being arbitrary and capricious.
It seems that city money has been used
to remove healthy trees while numerous
unhealthy or dead trees within the city are
being ignored ...because there isnt
enough money in the budget. [telephone
quote from city staffer].
There are several trees in Claremont
that are in bad shape. Some have disease,
READERS COMMENTS
some have been starved of water and have

died, others just look pitiful because they
seem to have more dead limbs than live.
Yet given these obvious and sometimes
dangerous problems, priority has been
given to removing or pruning healthy
trees? The policy for making these determinations is not transparent.
Is there a written rationale for making
these decisions? If so, is it being adhered
to? Furthermore, if the budget cannot take
care of the existing problems then how can
we justify paying tens of thousands of
dollars to the city manager as a bonus
beyond his regular salary?

Our changing landscape

Dear Editor:
The sky has not fallen! Life in Claremont will continue! writes Mr. Don
Fisher in his June 3 letter, echoing sentiments no doubt shared by other Pomona
College zone change supporters. It is understandable, I suppose, that supporters
of the zone change would wish us not to
reflect upon what has transpired, and just
to move along.
As it has been stated repeatedly, the issue with Pomona Colleges requested (and
regrettably, granted) zone change was
never about having a museum or not having a museum. Though Pomona College
tried its hardest to portray it as such. The
debate was only ever about an appropriate
location.
As a point of clarification, and hopefully honest reflection, this zone change issue has much broader and more serious
implications than just the transitory con-
troversy over a simple museum location.

The issue involves our city administrations respect, or lack of respect, for our
communitys own self-defined vision for
our Village.
It involves not only our communitys
decades-long, multi-faceted efforts to craft
our planning and regulatory documents
the general plan, municipal code and Village Design Planbut also the citys adherence to them in any particular
circumstance.
Looking forward, one must ask, what
confidence can any one of us have in the
outcome of any future issue, if our own approved and accepted documents can be
brushed aside and ignored, on the fly, to
suit the whim of the day? We should all be
sobered by the ramifications of un-moored
governance.

Come blow your horn

Dear Editor:
Heres something for everyone to consider before the Gold Line starts rolling
into Claremont, bringing with it, additional noise. According to the Insurance
Institute for Highway Safety, there were
7,654 fatalities in automobile intersections
in the United States in 2014. Conversely,
Operation Lifesaver Inc. (oli.org) reports
there were just 262 fatalities in railroad
crossings during that same period. Clearly,
blowing a horn four times before entering
an intersection is effective at saving lives.
So I ask, why stop at just railroad crossings? This month, lets all follow suit in
our cars and make Claremont roads the
safest in the country. Surely, if blowing a
horn provides an incremental benefit to
blinking red lights, bells and crossing

gates, wouldnt it be even more effective
without all those safety features?
So, the next time you are in your car
navigating through the pedestrian-filled
intersections in the Village on Sunday
morning, remember...long, long, short,
long.

SB 1107
Dear Editor:
The California senate will soon consider SB 1107, a bill to remove the 28year-old ban on public financing of campaigns that keeps our state and local
governments from finding innovative
ways to approach campaign regulation.
This bill does not establish a public financing program or require any government to offer public financing. It merely
provides an option for innovation, including voluntary programs like those already
in place in six charter cities.
Other provisions of the bill work to
combat corruption and undue influence
by banning foreign money from California state and local candidate elections and
requiring public officials convicted of corruption to donate their unspent campaign
funds to the general fund.
The League of Women Voters has long
worked to promote maximum citizen participation in the political process and combat public cynicism about government.
SB 1107 will create flexibility for local
governments to explore public financing
options that increase voter participation,
restore public trust and strengthen our representative democracy. Urge your senator
to support this valuable bill.

VP Advocacy, LWV of the
Claremont Area
Collaboration is the key to student success

by Susan Keith, president, Citrus Community College District Board of Trustees
s Claremonts representative on the Citrus

Community College
District Board of Trustees, I was
delighted to welcome several
K-12 educators to a special forum held at Citrus College earlier this spring.
Representatives from the Claremont
Unified School District joined other local
board of education members, superintendents, high school principals and
school administrators for an informative
morning of communication and collaboration. The main topic of discussion was
Californias new College and Career Access Pathways Partnerships Act, or AB
288, authored by our own Assemblymember Chris Holden.
AB 288, which was signed into law in
2015 and became effective in January
2016, authorizes California Community
College districts to enter into formal partnership agreements with local school districts to expand access to concurrent enrollment opportunities for high school
students.
The innovative new law builds upon existing dual enrollment efforts and makes
important statutory changes that will enable students from all backgrounds to have
early access to college preparation.
The implementation of the College and
Career Access Pathways Partnership Act
was a victory for Citrus College. Understanding that effective relationships with
our K-12 partners is a crucial factor in increasing the numbers of students who
complete their higher education goals,
members of the college community
joined my fellow board members and
myself in actively advocating for the
laws passage.
In fact, my high school-age granddaughter and I personally met with Senator Carol Liu of the 26th Senate District
and discussed the benefits of dual en-
VIEWPOINT
rollment just days before the bills passage.

The reason why Citrus College was so
passionate about AB 288 is because of the
many ways it will benefit the students we
serve. By beginning a career pathway
during high school, students can complete their college studies sooner. In some
cases, it may even be possible to earn a
degree or certificate at the same time that
high school is completed. This will save
high school students the cost of future
college fees and other related expenses
while also better preparing them for college success.
AB 288 is an exciting development for
the states education system, and I am
looking forward to seeing its results.
While there are numerous strategies that
have been identified as having significant positive effects on graduation rates,
one of the most effective of these is dual

enrollment.
As a College of Completion, Citrus
College believes that AB 288 will help the
college build upon its success, while saving students and the state time, money,
and scarce educational resources.
American industrialist Henry Ford
once said, Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, and
working together is success. While the
K-12 and community college systems
serve different age groups, they share a
similar mission: to provide students with
the highest level of education possible so
that they may have fulfilling personal
lives, responsible civic involvement and
successful careers.
In the months and years ahead, Citrus
College will build upon the work that
was begun at our recent K-14 Education
Forum. I have no doubt that our collective
commitment, passion, and knowledge
will increase student success rates
throughout the region.
Dorotha Todd Ellis
OBITUARIES
Caring mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend

Dorotha Todd Ellis, a longtime Glendora and Claremont resident, died on
May 23, 2016. She was 90.
She was born in Prairie Home, Missouri on April 23, 1926 to James Arthur
Odil and Florence Boehm Odil. She had
seven brothers and sisters: James, Leola,
Ruth, Clara, Emmet, Harry and William.
Dorotha married William Todd in 1945
in Boonville, Missouri and had two
daughters born in Boonville, Stephanie
in 1946 and Penni-Lu in 1947.
The family moved to California in
1949 and they added a son, Timothy,
born in 1950. They settled in Claremont,
where the children attended elementary
school, El Roble Intermediate School
and Claremont High School. No matter
where any of them have ever gone,
Claremont has always been home.
After a divorce at age 40, she worked

in a doctors officeher very first job
everthen at JC Penney in the personnel department and finally at Golden
State San Wa Bank, retiring in 1991 as
vice president in charge of personnel.
She found love again and married Fred
Ellis in 1997, but sadly he died in 1999.
In her retirement, she enjoyed sewing,
decorating, socializing with her girlfriends and spending time with her
grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Ms. Ellis leaves a legacy not only
through her children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren but through the values she modeled. The included the importance of friendships (especially
girlfriends!) and the satisfaction of being
productive and creative, especially in
needle arts. These values are appreciated
and carried on by her daughter, granddaughters and great-granddaughters.

Dorothas daughter, Stephanie Todd
Newlon, preceded her in death by one
week. She is survived by her daughter

Stephanie Ann Todd Newlon

Innovative teacher, devoted grandmother
Stephanie Ann Todd Newlon, a longtime Claremont resident, died on Sunday,
May 15, 2016. She was 70.
She was born on March 18, 1946 in
Boonville, Missouri to William M. Todd
and Dorotha Florence Odil Todd. She
lived in Boonville until the age of 4, when
her family moved out west to California.

She had a sister, Penni-Lu, who is one
year younger, and a brother, Timothy
William, who is four years younger. The
family settled in Claremont in 1950.
Young Stephanie attended Claremont
elementary schools, El Roble Intermediate
School and Claremont High School,

where she excelled as a straight-A student. With her father, she rode and showed
Tennessee Walking horses and owned a
champion show horse named Go Miss
Stately, of whom she was very proud.
She attended college at the University of
Redlands and graduated from the University of La Verne with a bachelors degree
and a teaching credential.
In 1965, she met Brint Newlon in a
Shakespeare class at ULV. They married
on November 19, 1967. They had one
son, Robb, in 1968 and then twin girls,
Ashley and Allison, in 1972. Mrs. Newlon
launched the kindergarten program at
Covina First Baptist Preschool in 1977.
She taught kindergarten there for 10 years
and then taught second grade at Vine Elementary School in West Covina until her
retirement in 2008, collectively teaching
more than 30 years.
Teaching was her passion, which was
truly evident if you ever walked into her
classroom. Mrs. Newlon has blessed hundreds of students with her innovative and
creative teaching methods, demonstrated
by carefully planned dinosaur digs and
dressing up as her favorite book characters. Before it was even popular, she recognized that there were different styles of
learners, and she treated every student as
an individual with individual needs. She
will be remembered as a compassionate,
caring and loving teacher.
Mrs. Newlon co-authored two books
for Scholastic, Reading Response Activities andQuick and Creative Literature
Response Activities, and traveled
throughout California sharing her ideas
and lessons at conferences. She was
awarded Teacher of the Year for West
Covina Unified School District in 19901991. In addition to all her professional accomplishments, her greatest desire was to
be a mother, which she did very well. She
was also an amazing grandmother and
spent nearly every day with her grandchildren.
In her retirement, Mrs. Newlon enjoyed
volunteering at her grandchildrens school,
Condit Elementary, crafting and spending

time with her husband, children and
grandchildren. She loved the ocean and
enjoyed vacationing at the beach with her
family.
Stephanie and Brint were married
nearly 49 years. They were the best of
friends and rarely spent time apart.
Throughout Stephanies illness, she always remained positive and she never
complained.
Stephanie truly exemplified what it
meant to be a loving spouse, mother,
grandmother, daughter, sister and aunt,
her loved ones shared. She taught her
family many very important life lessons,
two of which were dont sweat the small
stuff and to cherish family and friends. She
will be deeply missed.
Her mother, Dorotha Ellis, died just
eight days after Stephanie died. She is
survived by her husband, Brintnel R.
Newlon IV; by her son, Brintnel R.
Newlon V; by her daughter, Ashley
Newlon-Trujillo, her husband David and
their children Hannah and David; and by
her daughter Allison Newlon Burton and
her sons Cameron and Jake. She is also
survived by her sister, Penni-Lu Todd
Hansen, and her husband Ken, by her
brother, Timothy Todd, and his wife
Georgie, and by numerous nieces and
nephews.
In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully requests donations in Stephanies
name to The Michael J. Fox Foundation
for Parkinsons Research.

OBITUARIES
Veteran, counselor, family man

Kenneth Alden Green, a former resident of Claremont, died on May 30,
2016 in Coeur dAlene, Idaho. He was
92.
He was born on March 28, 1924 in
Sacramento to the Reverend Chester E.
Green and Wenonah Davis Green. He
was educated in Redlands, graduating
from Redlands High School in 1948.
Mr. Green was in the US Army during
World War II in a medical unit, serving
in the China-Burma-India Theater. Upon
his return from the war, he married
Kathryn Marti on June 23, 1946 in Redlands, in a ceremony officiated by Mr.
Greens father. The couple moved to
northern California, where he continued
his education at the University of California, Berkeley and earned a bachelors

degree in psychology in 1948 and a Masters of Social Work in 1950.
Returning to southern California, Mr.
Green began his counseling career at the
Sierra Madre Lodge for Alcoholism and
the Family Counseling Service of Los
Angeles. He then served seven years as
an assistant supervisor of the Los Angeles County Conciliation Court. In 1965,
he joined the faculty of California Polytechnic State University, Pomona as coordinator of the social service program
and was later appointed dean of counseling and testing. Mr. Green authored and
taught the Parent Effectiveness Training
Program for the national YMCA.

Ken believed all relationships are improved by self-examination. In 1979,
noted journalist and fellow Claremont
resident Louie Robinson interviewed
him for an Ebony magazine article,
How to Cope with People You Dislike.
Its been said that we love someone
because of how they make us feel, but I
think we also dislike people because of
how they make us feel, Mr. Green
noted. He urged readers to look for the
root of their aversion, particularly when
the person in question lacks any obvious
odious qualities. For example, you might
feel inept around someone because they
are so socially graceful.
In counseling, when people confront
why they dont like a person they frequently come to terms with their own
discomfort, he said. Rather than evaluating or making a judgment about the
other person, they realize the real problem lies with themselves.
After retirement from Cal Poly, Mr.
Green directed a peer counseling program at Claremont Community Senior
Services. He joined the Senior Biking
Club and the Senior Computer Club. An
avid birdwatcher, he was a member of
the Pomona Valley chapter of the National Audubon Society. In 2006, Ken
and Kathryn moved to Coeur dAlene,
Idaho. He was an enthusiastic golfer,
playing at age 90 in a Coeur dAlene
league and with family members.
He is survived by his wife of 70 years,
Kathryn Marti Green; daughters Susan

Green of Charlotte, North Carolina and
Nancy Harper of Coeur dAlene, Idaho;
daughter and son-in-law, Patty and Joe
Bordelon of Coeur dAlene; grandson
Matt Coopersmith of Portland, Oregon;
granddaughters Renee and Andrea Bordelon of Coeur dAlene and Leslie Coopersmith of Twin Falls, Idaho; and
great-grandchildren Mikayla, Sarah and
Jakob Adams of Twin Falls, Idaho.
A family gathering to celebrate Kens
life will be held at a later date. Interment
will be at Hillside Memorial Cemetery
in Redlands.
Mary Ann Barkey

Mary Ann Barkey, a longtime Claremont resident best known for her involvement with Oak Park Cemetery
and Claremont Heritage, died at home
from complications of COPD on Friday, June 3, 2016. She was 81.
A memorial service is being planned

for July, with the details still to be finalized. A full account of Ms. Barkeys
life will appear in a future edition of
the COURIER.

Taste buds help Tamale Guy find true calling
red Castellon will never forget the

moment he tasted a real Mexican
tamale for the first time.
The restaurateur, who is originally from Honduras, was

floored by the deliciousness and simplicity of the ingredients, which differed from the tamales of his native
country.
I loved it. I fell in love with it, he said.
Mr. Castellon is the guy behind The Tamale Guy, a
fast-casual restaurant that is quickly gaining in popularity since opening on Foothill Boulevard in Claremont this
spring.
Mr. Castellon, who has held a number of odd jobs since
opening the restaurant chain in 2009, started making
tamales for the masa-loving masses a few years back at
farmers markets across the Inland Valley, from Redlands
to San Bernardino and even as far south as Temecula.
We did farmers markets for many years, and people
were asking where can we find the tamales if not at the
farmers market, Mr. Castellon said. So we found that
place in Montclair.
The Montclair location was a success, and Mr. Castellon noticed a need for tamales in the City of Trees.
I thought this could be something good where people
could just come in and order tamales, he said. So thats
what made me think you know, maybe a tamale shop
would be great.
Since the shop opened, Mr. Castellon says, the response Claremonters has been positive.
People here in Claremont have been very supportive,
very friendly and very welcoming. Its been an awesome experience, he said. So far, weve been open a
month, but I didnt expect this, really.

ABOVE: Fred Castellon recently opened a second
Tamale Guy restaurant on Foothill Boulevard in
Claremont. He started out selling tamales at farmers markets and opened his first restaurant in
Montclair a few years ago. ATLEFT: Mr. Castellons
sister Diana Brunet caramelizes sugar to make flan.
The process to make a full batch of tamales can be time

consumingthe masa is prepared and stuffed, along
with the other ingredients such as chorizo and chiles, into
a cornhusk. The husk is then wrapped in paper and
steamed in a tower that cooks dozens of tamales at a time.
Mr. Castellon claims his locations make an average of
8,000 to 10,000 tamales a week. During the holidays,
when tamale season is in full swing, that number balloons
to 60,000-70,000 tamales.
I have a system here. I have an assembly line, he
joked.
That assembly line comes in the form of his dedicated employees, many of who are his relatives. One
could call this business a family affair, a notion that Mr.
Castellon touts as important to the survival of his restaurants.
Ive surrounded myself with an awesome team, my
family and close friends that I trust, that are very supportive and work really hard, he said. Thats the key to
success, because they have the passion I do and they all

pitch in and do great.
The new Claremont location is unique in that it doesnt just serve tamalesits a full-fledged Latin restaurant,
complete with burritos, empanadas and tacos.
Mr. Castellon is also famous for his rice, a delicious
cilantro-based side dish that you must taste to believe. He
says its his own special recipe.
A lot of Mexican restaurants have the same Mexican
rice, the same pinto beans, he said. I try to make something different. Its still rice, but it tastes a little different.
Desserts are also made in-house, such as a sweet and
creamy flan and arroz con leche, which is a Mexican rice
pudding.
Since arriving to the United States in 1985, Mr. Castellon has worked several jobs, including managing a
Dennys and a Cocos. As he moves forward with his own
business, he feels like hes found his niche in his adopted
country.
I did many things, but for some reason the restaurant
business has been something easy for me, he said. It
doesnt feel like a job.
The Tamale Guy is located at 956 W. Foothill Blvd. in
Claremont.

CHS Baccalaureate stresses importance of faith

celebration.
Attendance at the event, a longstanding annual tradition, was optional for students. Held at Claremont United
Church of Christ in advance of Thursdays graduation
ceremony, it was sponsored by Claremonts Interfaith
Council.
The pews were full as the Reverend Ann Schranz, of
the Monte Vista Unitarian Universalist Congregation,
presented her call to worship.
Whatever your religious belief, it can be expressed
freely. It might be expressed in certain traditions, she
said, assuring speakers that the gathered crowd would
take no offense. Come, lets worship.
A number of students then took to the front of the
church as they talked, and in some cases sang about the
faith that will sustain them as they move out of high
school and into the world.
CHS senior Nancy Jung said she draws strength from
the words uttered by Jesus Christ as he comforted his disciples on the eve of his crucifixion. My peace I give to
you, she said, quoting from the book of John. I do not
give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be
troubled; do not be afraid.
Nancy considers the passage incredibly profound.
Jesus peace is the kind of peace that can only come
when someone who cares for you says everything will
be alright, she said.
Senior Kevin Beck, who spoke before Nancy, drew
some laughs when he shared that as a stereotypical
Catholic, I have never actually read the Bible. Though
the statement likely carried a touch of hyperbole, he
shared that he took some time to consult the Bible in advance of his address.
He discovered wisdom in the book of Sirach, which
he paraphrased and which he feels is appropriate as he
and his cohorts set forth on lifes journey: Dont desert
your friends. Dont be jealous. And ask godly people
over for dinner.
Kevin encouraged his classmates to appreciate their
life just as it is, and to maintain their old ties as they forge
new ones. He also urged the teens to listen to their elders. When youre having trouble, he opined, you can generally find someone who has gone through the same

thing and has some helpful advice.

Brooke Safely, who belongs to the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints, spoke of how she lost confidence when first starting at CHS as older students
poked fun at the newbies.
She said she was helped by a concept fostered among
LDS girls. I am a daughter of God, she repeated to herself. It was a powerful idea that restored her shattered selfimage.
Talks were interspersed with songs from sacred traditions, including music performed by the CHS Chamber
Singers and Leonard Cohens secular hymn, Hallelujah.
Among the presentations underscoring the solemnity
of the students culmination was a blessing delivered by
Temple Beth Israel Cantor Paul Buch. He asked students
to face their parents and family, who have sustained
them throughout their school years, following his traditional three-part Jewish blessing with the words May
this be your will.
He changed things up a bit by prefacing each of his
blessings with words of wisdom by legendary pugilist
Muhammed Ali, quotes like this one: Friendship is the
hardest thing in the world to explain. Its not something
you learn in school. But if you havent learned the meaning of friendship, you really havent learned anything.
In her baccalaureate address, Reverend Karen Sapio,
pastor at Claremont Presbyterian Church, stressed the
unity of the worlds religions and of the worlds literature.
She noted that every story, whether sacred or secular, carries one of two themes: someone goes on a journey, or
a stranger comes to town.
She strengthened her point with examples from the
Koran, the Hindu Ramayana and the Bible. She also
highlighted a story sacred to lovers of the fantasy genre,
The Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R Tolkien.
Ms. Sapio shared a quote expressed by the hobbit
Samwise to his diminutive but brave companion Frodo
as they set out for the edge of the world. Sam observes
that if he takes one more step, it will be the furthest he
has ever traveled from the home.
Frodo replies by quoting his beloved Uncle Bilbo. Its
a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You
step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's
no knowing where you might be swept off to.
As the students go out their metaphorical doors, Ms.

Sapio urged them to take their journey

as pilgrims, not as tourists. A tourists
object is to travel to a new place and return home edified but much as they
were before, short of some pleasurable
memories and a bag of souvenirs. A
pilgrim, by contrast, is open to experiences that may lead them in yet another
new directionand may even change
them forever.
My hope and my prayer is that you
will go on your journey not as a tourist
but as a pilgrim, she said.
Ms. Sapios words made an impression on Austin Foster, who will head to
Arizona State University in the fall.
I like the part about going on a
strange journey, or a stranger coming to
town, he said. The idea of being a pilgrim is that as you go and learn new
things, you adapt more and get a deeper
understanding that way.
Sarah Torribio
storribio@claremont-courier.com
As a student at CHS, Eve was involved in various clubs and activities

such as the Gender Sexual Alliance
(GSA) Club as well as the Young Democrats Club, while still managing to
excel academically, earning a fantastic
GPA. She is looking forward to her future at Bennington College and especially all the school has to offer her.
There was a lot of pressure to only
apply to well-known or prestigious
schools, which definitely have their
merits, but I found a more self-directed
and less traditional school would be a
better fit for me, Eve said.
At Bennington, Eve will be studying
psychology and public policy, noting
that her interest in these fields was derived from the IB psychology class at
CHS taught by Natalie Sieg. She looks
forward to different job experiences
that come from studying these topics,
and would like to achieve a position at
a nonprofit organization and make a
living while working in this position.
Eve believes that Bennington will be
especially helpful in finding her dream
job, as the school builds in a term for
students to work or intern at various
companies.
While at CHS, Eve has made a multitude of memories, many of which
stem from her involvement in the IB
program. Whether it was cruising
through her homework or preparing for
some of IBs most brutal exams, she

found joy in her classes, especially
from the wonderful teachers and students that she interacted with every
day. It was from teachers such as Jennifer Gomez, Beth Bodnar and Natalie
Sieg that Eve learned the most. She
will likely carry their lessons with her
as she enters college.
Aside from the IB program, Eve will
also remember some moments of embarrassment she experienced while at
CHS.
When completing a homework assignment in Mr. [Levi] Siegs class, I
wrote a really stupid answer to one of
the questions and turned the paper in,
Eve said. Soon after, Mr. Sieg called
me to his desk and asked if I was
pulling his leg and testing if he was actually reading the answers. I wasnt. I
just didnt know the answer to the
question.
If Eve could change one thing about
CHS, it would be the system in general
and what aspects of school people believe to be the most important. She believes that from the moment students
get into high school they are immediately overwhelmed with thoughts about
college and the future. She argues that
the stress involved with getting the best
grade or SAT score is extremely damaging to students as a whole and takes
away from the overall learning experi-
ence. Although this is a problem, Eve

still believes in the teachers at CHS and
their ability to turn each class into a
valuable learning experience.
One of Eves most memorable accomplishments at CHS comes from her
involvement in the GSA club as the
vice president, and her contribution to
the effort to establish a gender-neutral
bathroom on campus. Eve regards this
as one of her highest achievements during her high school career, and is happy
that she was able to make a lasting difference on campus. Eve really cares
about the wellbeing of her fellow classmates, and cares about the people she
interacts with every day.
I have so much love for everybody, Eve said. I didnt think that I
would be so sad to leave. We have definitely had our struggles, but I am really
going to miss people that I am parting
ways with.
Eve has enjoyed her time at CHS and
is looking forward to her future at Bennington and beyond. She is proud of
what she has accomplished as a part of
the IB program and numerous other
clubs on campus.
Although high school did not come
without struggle for Eve, she was able
to achieve many of her goals and has
ultimately left her legacy on CHS as
the Class of 2016 Salutatorian.

CITY NEWS
City, Golden State go head-to-head next week in court
he trial to determine control over

the Claremont water system is set
to begin on Monday, June 13.
The proceedings will be the citys golden opportunity to convince Los Angeles Superior Court Judge
Richard Fruin that it has the standing to claim eminent domain over the system, which is currently operated by Golden State Water Company (GSW).
City Manager Tony Ramos is confident that the
judge will rule in the citys favor.
Our attorney will present a very well-documented
case that the city has the right to take over the system, he said.
Attorneys from Best, Best and Kreiger, including
Ken MacVey and John Holloway, will be representing Claremont at the trial.
The impetus for the acquisition was repeated rate
applications by GSW that saw Claremonts water
rates dramatically increase over the years. According
to the city, Claremont pays an exorbitantly higher
amount for their water than neighboring cities.
Golden State has long contended that the water
system is not for sale and has refused formal requests
for purchase from the city. The company has called
into the question the necessity of the water takeover
at all.
The trial is expected to last several weeks, according to a release from the city, and both sides will present expert witnesses arguing for and against the
acquisition of the system.
Claremont Public Information Officer Bevin Handel explained that municipal control over the water
system is favorable, as opposed to a private company,

because of the potential ease of access and input from
Claremont residents, as well as incorporation with the
citys sustainability plans.
I believe it is in the best interest of the public that
this belongs in municipal ownership, she said.
An opening 39-page brief filed by the city ahead of
the June 13 trial outlines a number of reasons why
they should take over the system, including high rates
from GSW, mismanagement of the system by GSW
and what the city says are unsafe operations of the
system.
A specific point of contention the city has against
Golden State is a surcharge called the water revenue
adjustment mechanism (WRAM), which the city describes as a charge added to customers bills if their
water usage falls below the companys target. The
city says it was implemented to keep GSW in the
black as Claremonters work toward sustainability and
reduce water usage.
I dont know any other business thats guaranteed
a profit when they dont project correctly, Ms. Handel said.
Golden State filed its own 183-page brief on May
27 claiming, in part, that its not necessary for Claremont to take over a water system that has been operated by GSW since 1929.
Now the city wants to take the Claremont water
system, by the power of eminent domain, in order to
provide the same water from the same wells through
the same pipes to the same residents and businesses
that Golden State serves, the brief outlines. The
most basic question to be resolved in this court trial is
simple: is it necessary for the city to do so? The an-
swer to that question should be a resounding no.

GSW also claims that residents will not see their
water rates fall under municipal control.
To the contrary, the debt load that Claremont will
be forced to take on to purchase the system assures
that those in Claremont will actually be paying higher
rates for the same water, the brief states.
Ms. Handel noted that, the water system currently
generates sufficient revenue to support an acquisition
price of up to $80 million, without raising existing
rates. The actual rates wont be determined until the
city takes over managing the system.
The move to acquire the system received overwhelming voter approval72 percent in favorin
November 2014 through Measure W, which approved
up to $135 million in bonds for the potential purchase. A lawsuit formally claiming eminent domain
was filed on December 9, 2014.
The system includes 11,000 service connections
and 19 wells, transmission lines, booster stations,
pressure regulating valves and reservoirs across
Claremont, as well as parts of Upland and unincorporated Los Angeles County.
An agreement with the city of La Verne was
reached in October 2015 outlining that Claremonts
neighbor to the west would operate the system,
should the city succeed in taking it over.
Representatives for Golden State Water did not respond to a request for comment as of press time.
Opening statements for the trial will take place at
the Los Angeles Superior Court at 8:30 a.m. in department 15.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are
considering bidding on this property lien, you should
understand that there are risks involved in bidding at
a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not
on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a
trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to
free and clear ownership of the property. You should
also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be
a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all
liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you
can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size
of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by
contacting the county recorders office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a
fee for this information. If you consult either of these
resources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on
this property.
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid
less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the
time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the
total debt
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date
shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or
more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or
a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California
Civil Code. The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements be made available to you
and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present
at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date
has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you

duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled
sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone

to verify postponement information is to attend the

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you
are considering bidding on this property lien, you
should understand that there are risks involved in
bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on
a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically
entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the
highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien
being auctioned off, before you can receive clear
title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorders office or a title insurance
company, either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender

highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the
property. You should also be aware that the lien
being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you
