one hundred and seventh year, number 22

Dear Editor:
We moved to Claremont from Glendora three years ago. Before that, both
my wife and I worked for years in her
business and my private practice in
Claremont. Im thinking about this
tonight after two glasses of wine, so Im
more openly nostalgic than usual.
What a community we have here in
Claremont! The Claremont COURIER
helps underwrite this dimension of our
lives that we mostly take for granted.
On the occasion of the death of a dog,
Im prodded to write this letter of gratitude. Lucy, a Golden Retriever who
lived on Sixth Street, died this week.
Lucy was a wonderful dog, as are many
dogs, but Lucy became a Claremont canine. Syd and Jan walked with Lucy
every day and people all around town
said, Hello, Lucy.
Syd put a note on Facebook, that social medium that invades our lives sometimes positivelya few photos and comments about Lucy. In response, from
what Ive been told, they got 70 (Yes!
Seventy) comments from people in
Claremont who knew Lucy and Syd and
Jan.
Anyone who has lost someone while
being known and loved in a community
can cherish this experience. To have people out of the blue express their care,
love, empathy and support when a member of our community, our society, goes
onward, makes the best medicine for our
grief, even our good grief. Lew Ellenhorns death is a good example and the
COURIER expressed our goodbye to
Lew beautifully.
Heres to Claremont! Were so blessed
to be here with you all. Keep on caring
for one another, expressing your love
and empathy with one another, and
please appreciate the community weve

all helped develop and enjoy.


Of course, community means there are
ways of handling conflict and differences. Conflict and differences are constant dynamics of any family, community
and society.Weve got what it takes to
maintain these processes. What a place to
live! Thank you for being Claremont, a
City of Trees and people who care.

Pomonas Museum of Art


Dear Editor:
I am an art historian at Pomona College, but not involved with the planning
of the new art museum. As an architectural historian, I fully support this project. Machado and Silvetti are a worldclass architectural firm, who will
contribute a magnificent new museum to
the campus and city.
The preliminary plans are in scale with
the site at College and Bonita and just
right as a link between town and gown.
First Street and College isolates the museum from both the academic core of the
Colleges and the Village. Preliminary
drawings and models provide an exciting
new addition to town and gown, which
gives the museum the capacity to have
major shows with required temperature
and humidity controls.
In the preliminary plans, Renwick
House on this incomplete urban block
will be part of the museum or else this
historic Victorian building will be relocated to a site where it will be used more
than it has been in the last half-century.
Machado and Silvetti are already well
into the urban and campus context,
which addresses all concerns raised.

City council approves rate hike to sanitation fees

laremonters will be
forced to dip into their
wallets as the city
council adopts an ordinance increasing sanitation and street
sweeping rates effective July 1.
A recent evaluation and eight-year
budget projection of Claremonts Sanitation Fund conducted by city staff determined current fees are inadequate and
increases are necessary to sustain operations and address vehicle replacement
reserve requirements.
Sanitation rates for trash and recycling services will increase by three percent, or 61 cents to 93 cents per month
for an average residential customer. A
single-family residence with one 35-gallon refuse container, one 90-gallon recycling container and one 90-gallon green
waste container will now pay $21.04.
Valet automated container service, favored by many Claremont property

owners, will cost $22.80 per month for


the first three containers.
I own 10 units and Im one of the
oldest continuous users, said Ray
Fowler of the valet service. This has always been a tremendous asset.
The city of Claremont will continue
to provide sanitation service in-house,
utilizing its fleet of 24 vehicleseight
residential trucks, four commercial
trucks, three roll-off trucks and nine
miscellaneous support vehicleswith
vehicle replacements paid by the Sanitation Fund. Two diesel engine residential
trucks will be replaced this year with
CNG equivalents at an estimated cost of
$656,830.
Along with sanitation rates, residents
will also see a 10 percent increase, or 34
cents per month for the average residential customer, on their street sweeping
bill. According to city records, street
sweeping fees have not increased since
July 1, 1994 and the boost is necessary,
as the Consumer Price Index in the local
area has increased by 58 percent, mak-

ing the current fees inadequate to cover


the cost of service.
The approved fee increases fall in line
with the two to three percent annual increase recommended by the Sanitation
Ad Hoc Committee and is projected to
bring an additional $189,176 to the Sanitation Fund.
The city is required to cover all of its
expenses for sanitation services through
fees. The new rates are designed to produce the minimum revenue needed to
cover projected operating costs, including direct operating expenses, administrative costs, compliance with state and
federal regulation requirements and
equipment repairs and replacements.
The citys reserve policy requires that
the Sanitation Fund set aside a minimum of 15 percent of annual expenditures for vehicle and equipment replacement. While the Sanitation Fund is
expected to dip below the reserve minimum between 2015 and 2020, city staff
noted annual expenditures would be reduced by approximately $500,000 be-

ginning in 2020, as the outstanding loan


on the city yard facility will be fully repaid.
A written notice of a public hearing
advising residents of the proposed increases was sent to all Claremont property owners and current customers the
week of April 6.
Residents were given the opportunity
to submit a written protest against the
proposed increases, but the opposition
came up short. The city received only
1,193 of the required 4,986 protests
needed to constitute a majority in opposition to the proposed rate increases.
Had more residents filed their opposition with the city, council members
would have been prevented from approving the rate increases and inflationary adjustments.
For information on street sweeping
and sanitation fees, visit the citys website at www.ci.claremont.ca.us

Community services director enters resignation

laremonts Community Services


Director Kathleen Trepa will be
heading to the city of Goleta outside Santa Barbara, after accepting the
deputy city manager position.
Ms. Trepa came to Claremont in 2012 after a more
than 20-year career with the city of San Marcos. She
replaced the citys previous human and community
services director Michele McNeill, who left Claremont after just six months.
Pat Malloy will once again serve as interim director, a position he held until December of 2010 when,
under a struggling budget, the city cut the director of
community services position entirely. Mr. Malloy had
worked for more than 30 years for the city of Arcadia.
In April of 2010, Mr. Malloy went before the community services commission to express his concern

that outsourcing services like trash collection would


leave the department gutted.
If we lose the solid waste program, theres nobody
left in the department, Mr. Malloy said. Weve got a
monstrous, beautiful facility down there with just a
few people around. Right now in the administrative
building, there are six of us occupying the building
with over half the building empty. I mean, its like a
ghost town.
At the time, community service commissioners
were also worried that the shift from using city employees to outsourcing services would impact Claremonts image of a well-maintained and attractive city.
Commissioners and city staff mulled over downsizing
to a more traditional public works department or dissolving the department altogether, with staff and functions being shifted to other departments like human
services and engineering.
Instead, the city of Claremont combined the human

and community services departments, with Ms. Trepa


at the helm. The departments were split up again last
summer after the city hired Anne Turner as its director of human services.
Mr. Malloy currently receives about $145,000 a
year from CalPERS from the city of Arcadia. A state
mandate is in place to limit the number of hours
worked by any employee receiving CalPERS to no
more than 960 hours per fiscal year. Mr. Malloys pay
scale for the part-time, interim position with Claremont was not included in the council agenda packet.
His payscale will be obtained from the city by the
COURIER when it becomes available.
The Claremont City Council approved Mr. Malloys appointment on Tuesday, May 26. He will begin
work on Monday, June 8. Ms. Trepas last day is
Thursday, June 4.

Claremont makes third offer for water system purchase

he dance for ownership


of the Claremont water
system resumed Tuesday, with the city transmitting
an updated offer to Golden
State Water Company to purchase its water delivery system
and assets for $56,335,000.

This is the third appraisal and offer


made to the private, investor-owned
company that serves water to residents
and business owners in Claremont.
Since the last offer of $55,094,000
in October of 2013, Golden State Water

has increased rates and revenues, said


City Manager Tony Ramos. The offer
made to Golden State Water is based on
a comprehensive and detailed property
description and is for the current fair
market value of the utility system.
The offer was updated as part of the
citys eminent domain case against
Golden State Water Company. At a motion for judgment hearing on April 30,
2015, the court ordered the city to
amend its complaint within 60 days and
to include an updated offer letter to
Golden State Water. Before submitting
a new offer, the city directed its appraiser to update the valuation, taking
into account changes in the system

since the last appraisal in 2013.


The updated offer made by the city is
based on information contained in the
latest annual report filed by Golden
State for the Claremont District for December 31, 2014. The offer also contains a more detailed description of the
Claremont water system. The water
system services all of Claremont, as
well as small portions of the cities of
Montclair, Pomona and Upland, and a
small adjacent area of unincorporated
Los Angeles County.
Golden State Water Company held a
public hearing on rates and conservation on Thursday, May 28 at El Roble
auditorium. A report on the results of

that meeting will be published in the


COURIER next week.
Golden State began the current ratesetting process in July 2014 when they
applied for an order to decrease water
service rates by 0.50 percent in 2016,
only to increase rates by 3.21 percent in
2017; and increase rates again by 3.12
percent in 2018.
Mayor Corey Calaycay, Councilman
Joe Lyons and City Manager Tony
Ramos will travel to San Francisco next
month to testify in the Golden State
Water CPUC rate case on June 4.
The COURIER will continue to update residents on the details.

Administrators roll up shirtsleeves, ACE test of empathy

here is a Native American proverb


that insists you cant judge a person until you have walked a mile
in their moccasins. With this in mind, a
number of CUSD administrators and
board members took to Claremont campuses on Wednesday, ready to follow in
the footsteps of the districts classified
staff.

The effort was part of a program called ACE (Appreciating Classified Employees) sponsored by the
California School Employees Association. The Claremont Unified School District was one of 10 districts
selected out of 700 to participate in the springtime
event.
ACE, which coincides with Classified School Employee Week, was initiated in 2007. It uses job shadowing to highlight the contributions of classified
school employees like food service workers, secretaries, para-educators and groundskeepers. Its a way
to salute the work of classified employees and promote understanding between staff and administration, according to the CSEA website.
Superintendent Jim Elsasser took part in the program, heading to Danbury Elementary School. With
its population of orthopedically handicapped and
medically fragile students, Danbury is dependent on
the constant assistance of its 20 or so para-educators
or special education aides. The district head became
one of these aides for the morning, interacting with
the children in Sarah Estradas first- and second-grade
class.
Mr. Elsasser, all 6-foot-6-inches of him, hunkered
down, interacting with students with disabilities like
cerebral palsy, which can hit kids with varying degrees of severity.
Some of the children were in the midst of an art
project, coloring a picture of maracasusing fingercrayons or an aides hand-on-hand assistanceas part
of the classrooms focus on Mexico for the schools
Multi-Cultural Day. Others, including 9-year-old
Sean Tmouh, were working on computer-assisted
projects.
Sean, who proudly admits to being a bit of a
geek, said computer work is what he loves best at
Danbury. When hes home, his technology use turns
from work to play, with his current favorite video
game being Assassins Creed: Brotherhood.

school year was the annual rock-climbing experience

CUSD Superintentent Jim Elsasser paid a special visit to Danbury School Wednesday, lending a hand in the
classroom as part of a new Appreciating Classified Employees (ACE) program to support the distrcit's classified staff. Here, Mr. Elsasser works with student Maci Jones and teacher Amy Weiler during classroom activities. ACE uses job shadowing to highlight the contributions of classified school employees like food service workers, secretaries, para-educators and groundskeepers.

provided by No Limits. The organization, founded by


paraplegic rock-climber Mark Wellman, allows even
the most severely disabled kids to ascend a rock-studded 25-foot wall with the help of adaptive equipment
such as a special belt, harness and pull-up bar.
I got to free-climb, Emily said of the peak experience held recently at Danbury. When we got to
the top, we rang the bell.
Whether students are literally or metaphorically
climbing mountains to get past their challenges, there
are always para-educators on hand to help the students day go smoothly.
Basically they make it all happentaking kids to
the bathroom for their hygiene needs, getting them
fed, moving them from place-to-place. Principal
Steve Hamilton said. Theyre in the classroom giving directions, often working hand-over-hand because, with many students, you have to hold their
hand to help them engage in an activity.
Like other ACE participants, Mr. Elsasser was on
duty with his small charges from 11:45 a.m. to 1 p.m.
It was a short time, but it was enough to provide a
taste of the kind of support para-educators provide to
disabled students in Claremont. Its something the administrator already appreciates, Mr. Hamilton said,
because Mr. Elsassera notably hands-on superintendentpays regular visits to the campus.
The superintendent is doing a great job. Thats really him, Mr. Hamilton said, indicating Mr. Elsasser
as he sat side-by-side with one of the pint-sized students. Hes not doing a role right now. Hes got so
much empathy.
Of course, the job shadowing was about appreciating classified employees like the three aides in Ms.
Estradas class, not administrators. One of these,
LaShondae Hughes, is a new addition to Danbury this
year, though she has worked with disabled people for
many years. She paused a moment from her work,
helping a girl with a developmental disability complete her art project, to weigh in on what drew her to
the job.
I love working with people of all ages and with all

needs, she said. I find it fulfilling.


Every once in a while, someone finds working with
students for whom nearly every task is a challenge to
be too wrenching. There have been a few would-be
staffers who have left in tears, Mr. Hamilton said.
Most people who come to Danbury, however, have
the ability to not only sympathize with the children
but to celebrate their step-by-step progress. Its common for a para-educator to stay at the school for 10 or
even 20 years.
Michelle Martinez, known as Ms. Michelle to her
students, is one of these veterans, having been at Danbury for 17 years. I stay here because of my love for
the children, she said. They make my heart big.
Rosie Bister, head of CUSDs classified staff
union, has been a champion of bringing the ACE program to the district. In general, Claremont administrators are good listeners who understand the importance
of all the hard work undertaken by support staff, she
said.
But when they see it firsthand, it makes the employees feel valued and understood for what they do,
she said. Thats important.
Sixteen district leaders in all shadowed classified
employees, including school board members David
Nemer and Hilary LaConte, who followed IT user
support analyst Dave Lawson and proctor and mail
handler Joe Gonzales, respectively.
For Mr. Hamilton, every day is a reminder of the
need for classified staff, especially his team of paraeducators. Their help is particularly crucial since a recent reorganization in area special education has
brought 15 new students to Danbury, bringing the
total school population to 85 kids. The newcomers
are, in general, more severely disabled than most of
the students.
Dont tell the teachers, but this place would fall
apart without the aides, he said.

Tutti Frutti

by Mellissa Martinez

he variety of fruit that once thrived


in Claremont and surrounding
areas left its mark in names such as
Orange County, the grapevine and
Pomona, a city that derived its name from
the goddess of fruit. One of the wonderful
things about living in such a fertile area is
that we can enjoy fresh fruit throughout
the year.
I know exactly where I can pick an orange, lemon,
pear, banana, plum, strawberry or grapefruit for immediate pleasure. Appropriately, the word fruit came
to English via French from the Latin frctus and earlier fru, meaning to enjoy.
Initially, fruit referred to actual fruit as well as all
profits from the soil, such as vegetables, nuts, grains
and acorns. Because of this, there was a strong connection between the fruit and profit as in, fruit of
ones labor. As an example, the related Latin adjective
frugi meant economical or useful. When combined
with the suffix al, the word frugal emerged to refer
to a person who is careful or sparing in the use of
foods and goods. Other fruit related words include
fruition, fruitful and fructose.

LEX
IN THE

CITY
A less obvious connection to fruit is mellow. Although the origin of the word is still uncertain, its
meaning comes from the juicy inside of ripe fruit. In
Old English, melwe soft, sweet, juicy, referred to the
inside of ripe fruit. The idea that as fruit ripens, it softens and is made mellow was used for people in the
1500s. Shakespeare, for example, wrote in Henry VI
Call him my king by whom mine elder Brother...was
done to death...even in the Downfall of his mellowed
years.
Satire also comes from fruit. The Indo-European
root *sa to satisfy led to English satisfy, asset,
satisfaction and saturate. In Classical Latin, a lanx
satura was a full (and satisfying) dish containing a
medley variety of fruits. Satura, for short, became
satira, which shifted in meaning from a fruit medley
to a prose medley. The writing typically focused on

various topics, often negatively. By the time satire


made its way to French, it described a poem in which
immorality or foolishness of others was ridiculed or
denounced.
Before the 1600s, the word apple was used to describe all types of fruit. A tomato was called a loveapple; cucumbers were earth-apples; and in some
regions, oranges are still referred to as golden apples.
The Latin pomum apple led to pomade, as the original recipe for the ointment included mashed apples.
The French grenade pomegranate is a short version
of the Latin pomum granatum, literally apple with
many seeds. The English-adopted grenade, a small
explosive shell, derives its name from the French
grenade because the fragmenting bomb looks like the
multi-seeded fruit.
Another god-related fruit word is tantalize. This
word comes from Greek Tantalos, king of Phrygia,
who was punished in the afterlife by being made to
stand in a river up to his chin, under branches laden
with fruits that withdrew from his reach each time he
tried to pick one.
Thankfully, the fate of Tantalos is not likely for the
frugivores, or fruit eaters, who live in Claremont.
My trees are still brimming with oranges and if I walk
down the street, I can see apples, plums and pomegranates all beginning to mellow.

iPads in the classroom

Dear Editor:
I am writing in response to YouYoung Kangs viewpoint in the May 22
COURIER and her opinion about technology integration in CUSD.
I should start by saying that I am a
Claremont High technology integrator
teacher. I respect our districts vision
and leadership in many areas, including
the integration of technology in the
classroom.
Taking state and federal assessments
online isnt a choice that Claremont or
any other district chose, but is rather a
requirement. The superintendent did
not want to spend a great deal of money
on testing equipment that would be
wheeled out just once a year, but
thoughtfully looked at many options of
how to best integrate technology into
the classroom of CUSD students with
devices that could also be used in statemandated testing.
The tech ed department, staffed with
some of the brightest and most innovative teachers and administrators I have
had the pleasure of working with in my
30- plus years as a teacher, looked at
many models and platforms and did

READERS COMMENTS

their homework before settling on the


iPad as our tool. I am a bit confused
about the authors complaint about creativity. The iPad allows for fantastic
multimedia presentations via iMovie,
brilliant presentations via Keynote,
many different infographic apps to create digital posters, apps such as Notability that allow students to annotate
texts, exercises and more.
I have been fortunate to be a technology integrator teacher of English
Learner students at CHS, and am able
to have them use iPads in instruction,
use bilingual dictionary apps, use
Adobe Voice to record audio, collaborate on projects via GoogleDrive and so
much more.
Professor Kang could visit one of the
technology integrator classrooms to see
first-hand the creativity that our students experience every day.
While we dont have the luxury of
rejecting the testing regime as the author suggests, I applaud our district for
letting student work, creativity and instruction drive our technology choices.

I have to disagree with her that the iPad


is an expensive toy; its a powerful and
engaging tool in the hands of a teacher
with the proper training and support of
the district.
I, too, have a child in CUSD, and he
has had the pleasure of terrific instruction from fine teachers, enhanced and
amplified by the thoughtful use of
iPads with specific applications only
possible with the iPad.

Stop the Super PACs

Dear Editor:
The explosive growth of Super PACs
is a major outgrowth of the Supreme
Courts decision in Citizens United, and
it is undermining the integrity and effectiveness of our nations anti-corruption campaign finance laws.
Super PACs raise and spend unlimited amounts and serve as vehicles for
donors and candidates to bypass the
contribution limits that apply to a candidates campaignlimits enacted by

Congress to prevent corruption.


Its time to close this loophole that is
letting too much big money into our
elections. Tell your Representative to
cosponsor and support HR 425, the
Stop Super PAC Candidate Coordination Act introduced by Representatives
David Price and Chris Van Hollen.
Since coordinated expenditures are
treated by law as in-kind contributions
to the candidate, new and effective coordination rules would bring Super
PACs back into the contribution limit
system and help protect against corruption of public officials.
Congress can fix this. Stand up today
and urge your representative to
strengthen coordination rules and stop
Super PACS from evading the law.
As a practical matter, Super PACs are
sidestepping the law that is intended to
block huge and corrupting campaign
contributions. Its time to establish realworld, common-sense definitions of corruption and close this massive loophole.
Help us stop big money by telling
your representative to cosponsor and
support HR 425 today!

Carey Steele

OBITUARIES

Loving wife, mother and grandmother


Mamie Carey Steele, a longtime Claremont resident, died peacefully on Friday, May 22, 2015. She was 85.
She was born in Shreveport, Louisiana
on December 13, 1929. Carey, as she
was called, moved with her family to
California where she attended Hollywood
High School and then UCLA. She returned to Louisiana for a short period and
continued schooling at Louisiana State
University. She loved college sports, especially her alma maters teams, and followed the Bruins and Tigers year in and
year out.
She met her husband Jack while working a summer job in Los Angeles. They
moved around for four years while he was
in the Air Force and then returned to California when Jack became a salesman with
Rockwell Tool. They moved to Claremont

in 1961 and opened up their own business,


J&S Industrial Tool in Pomona.
Mrs. Steele was known to her friends
and acquaintances as a compassionate,
generous and helpful person. She was a
member of the Pomona Womens Optimist Club for 30 years, participating in
fundraising activities and events for both
the womens and mens organizations.
She was also a very involved parent and
was active in the PTA at Sumner, El
Roble and Claremont High, where her
children Judy and Bob attended. She was
a troop mother with Boy Scout troop 402
until the point where Bob attained the
rank of Eagle Scout. She was similarly
involved with Bluebirds and Girl Scouts
with Judy.
Living in Claremont, their house had a
reputation as the place where all the kids

played, and Mrs. Steele could be counted


on to have enough popsicles to go
around, no matter how large the crowd.
Carey and Jack lived in Claremont from
1961 until 2006, when they moved to
Apple Valley to be nearer to their son.
Mrs. Steele is preceded in death by
her husband, Jack, and all five of her
brothers and sisters. She is survived by
her daughter, Judy Steele Morgan, and by
her son and daughter-in-law, Bob and
Cheri Steele. She also leaves grandchildren Brian Steele, Megan Wright (Mike),
Summer Muir (Robert) and Sean Morgan
as well as great-grandchildren Connor
Muir and Kaitlyn Carey Steele.
She will be buried in Claremonts Oak
Park Cemetery, next to her husband Jack.
Graveside services will be held today,

Marty Gottuso

OBITUARIES

Entrepreneur, veteran, loving patriarch


Mario Marty Gottuso Sr., a longtime Claremont resident, died on May
22, 2015. He was 92.
He was born in 1922 in Utica, New
York to Vincent Gottuso, a Pentecostal
minister, and his wife Evangeline, both
of whose parents immigrated to the
United States from Sicily, Italy in the
early 1900s. The eldest of 10 children,
he spent his early years growing up on
the family farm.
Marty loved school and, as he
claimed, was always the teachers pet.
However, he had to leave school at age
15 during the Great Depression. He
worked laying linoleum, refinishing
furniture and at any other job he could
find to contribute to his familys financial needs. Unfortunately, he never returned to finish high school. Yet he
thrived well beyond any education,
spending most of his career in the furniture and real estate industries.
Mr. Gottuso proudly served in the
US Army Air Corps during World War
II. In the summer of 1945 he married
Josephine, whom he met a number of
years previously through the marriage
matching of both of their parents.
They were married for 45 years until
her death in 1990. Shortly after their
wedding, the couple headed west to
California, living in Los Angeles and
Alhambra. When Marty and Jo moved

to Pomona in the mid-1950s, they began attending the Pomona First Baptist
Church where they were longtime
members. They settled in Claremont in
1962, where Mr. Gottuso remained until the year after his wifes passing,
when he moved to Upland.
Mr. Gottuso was known as an exceptional salesperson. It was often said he
could sell someone anything, if he had
enough time to work with them. He
owned Manor House Furniture on Holt
Avenue in Pomona for many years.
After closing his furniture store in

1971 he became a realtor, beginning


with a tenure with Herbert Hawkins in
Pomona followed by a position as sales
manager with Gene Hart Realty in
Claremont and Pomona. Marty and Jo
eventually became the owners of Century 21 Gene Hart Realty.
As the owner, Mr. Gottuso continued
working in sales and advertising until
retiring at a year no one really knows,
because he continued to do advertising
for the company for many years. With
his cheerful disposition and positive attitude, he also maintained his role as encourager and cheerleader for the realtors.
Mr. Gottuso loved playing the piano,
which he learned by ear, and was the
life of any party. He was energetic and
personable, always keeping the person
he was talking to the priority of the
conversation. He was very free with
hugs and kisses on the cheeks of those
he knew for a long time and even people he just met.
In the final weeks and days prior to
his passing, he was considerate with
those caring for him, rarely complained
and often dressed up so he felt he was
participating in the day. He was still
able to talk about world events and ask
how each person in the family was doing, and continued to give advice. He
received wonderful hospice care in his
home through VNA and lived his final

days gracefully and with dignity.


Marty loved his family and seemed
to keep living for another family milestone, whether it was a graduation,
wedding or other significant event.
People were amazed at his age, as he
always looked and acted much
younger. He truly enjoyed life and will
be missed by all who knew him.
He is survived by his sons and daughters-in-law, Vincent and Debbie Gottuso
and Mario Jr. and Robin Gottuso, and
his daughter Lorraine Lorie Anderson; his grandchildren Kimberly, Mario
Joshua, Brian and his wife Kathy,
Nicole and her husband Andrew Gulotta, and Justin and his wife Ann as
well as great-grandchildren Logan and
Macey.
Mr. Gottuso also leaves his loving
companion Edith Terwilliger, who for
more than 24 years was like a second
mother to his children, as well as his
brothers John and Nick Gottuso, his sister Rose Gottuso and numerous nieces,
nephews and cousins.
Services for Mr. Gottuso will be held
on Saturday, June 6 at 2:30 p.m. at the
Church of Our Heritage at Forest Lawn
Covina Hills, located at 21300 Via
Verde Drive in Covina. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations
be made in Marty Gottusos honor to
Pomona First Baptist Church.

Claremont
Mayor
Corey
Calaycay
gives Ruth
Pitt a hug
after presenting her
with a certificate in
recognition
of her 100
birthday recently during a party
for her in
Claremont.

Centenarian celebrates good genes, good friends

hile some Claremont seniors are


considering assisted
living, Ruth Pitt has mastered
the art of unassisted living.
Maintaining her independence
for the past 100 years, this centenarian has a passion for life
that doesnt show any signs of
slowing down.
On May 21, 1915, Ruth Elizabeth was
born in Cornwell, New York, the only
daughter of Elizabeth Tyner. As a young
child, she moved around the country to
New York, Massachusetts, Washington
DC and California as her mother found
work as a stenographer.
In 1935, Ruth found herself in Washington and began working as a file clerk
for National Geographic. A co-worker
introduced her to Bernard Pitt, a young
army man whom she would marry and
build her life. Mr. Pitt served during
World War II and was the sole survivor
in his troop during the Battle of the
Bulge. Following an injury during the
battle, Mr. Pitt retired and took on a career as an attorney for the government
a career that had the newlyweds traveling
the world.
The couple lived in Korea and then
the Philippines in the late 1950s and it
was here where she met young Bernie, a
son born to a co-worker of her husband
who was given his namesake. Having no
children of her own, Ms. Pitt was quite
taken with the boy and maintained a relationship with the family following her

return to the US, later sponsoring Bernie


to come to California for college at the
age of 24. He attended Citrus College
until transferring to Cal Poly where he
majored in hospitality.
Thats why he loves big parties, Ms.
Pitt says with a smile. Hes a very considerate person and he has a lovely family with two beautiful children. I love
them all very much.
Following Mr. Pitts passing, Ms. Pitt
and her mother moved to Claremont in
1967. She worked at the Claremont Colleges as a secretary and has lived in the
same home for nearly five decades.
I was fortunate to get a job at the
Colleges and I stayed there for about 20

years, says Ms. Pitt.


Following her retirement, Ms. Pitt became active in the Claremont community. She worked for Habitat for Humanity and was one of the founding
members of Active Claremont.
I had the great honor of picking up
trash off the freeway, she says.
Shed been a member of the Rancho
Santa Ana Botanic Garden for more than
15 years where she helped maintain the
grounds, pruning bushes and keeping the
gardens nice and neat. She was also active in the La Verne Trail Trekkers, joining the group at 80 years old and hiking
the local trails. She made and has maintained many dear friendships from those

experiences.
Unlike many people her age, Ms. Pitt
remains independent, maintaining her
residence with the occasional help of
nearby friends and family. She shops
weekly at Trader Joes, visits with
friends and attributes her vitality to good
genes.
My mother was 95 and her sister
lived to 102. Longevity runs in my family. At least on the female side, she
says.
On Sunday, May 17, Ms. Pitts family
and friends gathered at Blaisdell Park to
celebrate the centenarian. At a shindig,
organized by her son Bernie, she and her
30 guests dined al fresco, enjoying hamburgers, apple pie and lemonade under
the mature sycamore trees while listening to vintage tunes sung by barbershop
quartet Preferred Blend.
A penny-farthing bicycle and its rider
served as additional entertainment, as
did an oversized front-page print of the
Washington Post newspaper dated May
21, 1915.
Mayor Corey Calaycay, a friend of
Ms. Pitt for nearly 25 years, also joined
in the festivities and presented the guest
of honor with a certificate from the city
of Claremont commemorating her milestone birthday.
A birthday cake followed, complete
with 100 candles, with the mayor leading guests in a resounding rendition of
Happy Birthday.
Its such a lovely day, said Ms. Pitt.
Ive got good family and good friends.
Im lucky to have such a life.
Happy 100th birthday Ruth!

softball team is having a
stellar year. The Gauls
took first place in their league
with an impressive 15-3 record,
and followed up on Thursday
with a 9-0 rout of visiting Rio
Hondo Prep in the first round of
the CIF tournament.

The shutout was anchored by junior


Keely Marquez who pitched seven innings,
giving up four runs while striking out four
batters. Other top performances came from
freshman Thea Kirkpatrick, who had two
hits, two runs, four RBIs and a tripleall

HIGH SCHOOL ROUND-UP

CHS SWIMMING FINALS


Medalists in the Palomares League
Finals included junior Samantha Duran,
who was third in the 100-meter fly,
fourth in the 500-freestyle and third in
the 200-medley relay. Sophomore Katrina Strash took second in the 50freestyle, fifth in the 100-freestyle and
third in the 200-medley relay.
Freshman Emily Marks took fourth
in the 100-backstroke and third in the
200-medley relay, while senior Morgan
Stockham took third in the 200-medley.
Strash was awarded Palomares All
League Team for the 50-freestyle,
while setting a new Palomares League
meet record in the prelims at 24.7. She
broke her own record at the finals at
24.6, but wasout-touched for first, according to her father Jon Strash.
For the boys, sophomore Ben Eagleton took third in the 50-freestyle at
22.67.

In the CIF prelims, Strash scored in


the top 10 in the 50-free and set a new
personal record of 24.5. Samantha
Duran made the top 13 in prelims in the
100-fly while getting her best time for
the season, 57.86. Both girls made the
finals but were unable tocompete due
to a mishap with entries.

CIF TRACK FINALS


Claremont High School boys track
team placed 22nd and the girls placed
23rd during the CIF Southern Section
Division II finals last weekend at Cerritos College in Norwalk.
Claremonts top performance came
from Jonah Ross, who placed third in
the 1600-meter race, while the top girls
performance came from Brittney Duquette who took sixth in the 400-meter
and Annie Boos, who also took sixth in
the 800-meter.
Ira Clark Donovan, Robinson
Thomas Beck and Duy Tran-Sampson
took home fifth in the 4 x 100 relay,
while Kylie Robinson, Kyra Tisopulos,

this from just three at-bats. Junior Hailey


Arteaga literally batted 1000 by getting three
hits for three at-bats and scoring three runs.
Sophomore Jessica Renfrew had three
hits including two doubles and a triple, netting one run and three RBIs. Rounding out
the scoring were Sarah Renfrew, Alejandra
Butcher and Elise Morris, who each had one
hit and one run.
Kirkpatrick also deserves credit for 11
putouts at first base, while Marquez had
five outs, two assists and combined for a
double play.
Webb lost in the second round of the CIF
tournament to Sierra Canyon, ending their
season. The team of just 11 girls has no
seniors, which bodes well for their continued success next year.

Boos and Duquette got a seventh-place


finish in the 4 x 400-meter relay.

CMS mens tennis take


nationals
After 34 years and back-to-back
losses in the national title match in
2013 and 2014, the number-one ranked
Claremont-Mudd-Scripps mens tennis
team is bringing the national championship trophy back to Claremont, according to Christopher Watts of CMC.
CMS soundly defeated Middlebury 50 in the national title match of the 2015
NCAA Division III Mens Tennis
Championships on May 20 in Mason,
Ohio. For the Stags, its the second national title in program history. The other,
a tie, was in 1981. CMS Athletics has
now won three team national championships as an athletic program, two for
mens tennis (1981 and 2015) and one
for mens swimming (NAIA, 1967).
Its been a long road, said senior
Warren Wood (CMC) after the match.

Ohio.

Liam McNair, 13, won a state championship in the juvenile A category during the California Judo Invitational
Tournament recently in Cerritos. The El
Roble seventh grade student has been
taking judo lessons for nine years at the
San Gabriel Japanese Community Center. His sister Eileen McNair, who is

Sustainability, new ideas take center stage at conference

four-day global conference titled


Seizing an Alternative: Toward
an Ecological Civilization will be
held on Thursday, June 4 through Sunday,
June 7 at Bridges Auditorium. The event
runs all day each day, beginning at 9 a.m.
This inaugural event of the Pando Populus organization will feature up to 1,000 presenters in over 80 areas
of specialty. Plenery speakers include Bill McKibben,
Vandana Shiva, Sheri Liao, Wes Jackson, Herman Daly
and John B. Cobb, Jr.
The conference is organized around the idea that
there is an alternative to modern industrial life, and that
in order to avoid catastrophic conditions we must seize
an alternative way of thinking and living. That alternative is an ecological worldview.
For many years, pockets of activity have organized
to reduce climate change, save endangered species,
limit ocean acidification, curb poverty, cap the influence of financial markets, bring about democratic accountability, reduce militarism, etc. What the founders
of Pando Populus and like-minded thinkers believe is
missing is a new paradigm that integrates these various
concerns and activities and sets them in the context of a
broader vision.
Mr. Cobb is an American theologian, philosopher
and environmentalist who cofounded Claremonts Center for Process Studies as well as Pando Populus, a
nonprofit that aims to create an ecological civilization. He has authored more than 50 books, including
the groundbreaking 1971 work Is It Too Late? A The-

to participate in the Seizing an Alternative conference.

ology of Ecology, which argued for the relevance of


religious thought in approaching the environmental crisis. Mr. Cobb is also founder and president of the Institute for Postmodern Development of China.
Mr. McKibben is an environmental activist and bestselling author of such books as Eearth: Making a Life
on a Tough New Planet and Oil and Honey: The Education of an Unlikely Activist. Ms. Shiva is also a
fierce advocate for the environment and an opponent of
globalization who has authored books like Making
Peace with Earth and Earth Democracy: Justice,
Sustainability, and Peace.
Ms. Liao is an activist, journalist and documentary
producer whose works are credited with advancing the
Chinese environmental movement. Featured as one of

Time magazines Heroes of the Environment in 2009,


she promotes a life of harmony through reduced consumption and decreased use of harmful practices in
daily lives.
Mr. Jackson is founder of The Land Institute, a nonprofit organization dedicated to sustainable agriculture
based in Salina, Kansas. The Institutes goal is to develop an agricultural system based on perennial crops
that has the ecological stability of the prairie and grain
yield comparable to that from annual crops.
The author of books like Ecological Economics:
Principles and Applications, Mr. Daly was senior
economist in the environmental department of the
World Bank, where he helped develop policy guidelines related to sustainable development.
Seizing an Alternative unites the 10th International
Whitehead Conference and the 9th International Conference on Ecological Civilization. The free lecture series schedule is Bill McKibben on June 4 at 7 p.m.;
John Cobb on June 5 at 9 a.m.; Vandana Shiva on June
5 at 7 p.m.; Herman Daly on June 6 at 9 a.m.; Sheri
Liao on June 6 at 7 p.m.; and Wes Jackson on June 7 at
9 a.m.
The week-long conference has a $29 Saturday option to meet some of the conference participants. To

resources, you should be aware that the same

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF ROSE A. TORCIVIA
Case No. BP162556
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors,
contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both,
of ROSE A. TORCIVIA
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has
been filed by Maria C. Torcivia in the Superior
Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE
re-quests that Maria C. Torcivia be appointed as
personal representative to administer the estate
of the decedent.
THE PETITION requests authority
to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will
allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the
personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived
notice or consented to the proposed action.) The
independent administration authority will be
granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the
court should not grant the authority.
A HEARING on the petition will be
held on June 19, 2015 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 29
located at 111 N. Hill St., Los Angeles, CA 90012.
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of
the petition, you should appear at the hearing and
state your objections or file written objections
with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a
contin-gent creditor of the decedent, you must
file your claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by the
court within the later of either (1) four months
from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2)
60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of
the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a creditor.
You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file
kept by the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the
filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in
Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is availa-ble from the court
clerk.

assessments on the parcels described below will have
been defaulted five or more years, or, in the case of
nonresidential commercial property, property on
which a nuisance abatement lien has been recorded,
or that can serve the public benefit by providing
housing or services directly related to low-income
persons when three or more years have elapsed, and
a request has been made by a city, county, city and
county, or nonprofit organization that property, will
become subject to the Tax Collector's power to sell.
The parcels listed will become subject to the Tax Collector's power to sell on July 1, 2015, at 12:01 a.m.,
by operation of law. The Tax Collector will record a
power to sell unless the property taxes are paid in full
or an installment plan of redemption is initiated, as
provided by law prior to 5:00 p.m., on June 30, 2015.
The right to initiate an installment plan terminates on
June 30, 2015. Thereafter, the only option to prevent
the sale of the property at public auction is by paying
the taxes in full.
The right of redemption survives the property becoming subject to the power to sell, but it terminates
at 5:00 p.m. on the last business day before the scheduled auction of the property by the Tax Collector.
The Treasurer and Tax Collector's Office will furnish, upon request, information concerning payment
in full or initiating an installment plan of redemption.
Requests must be made to Joseph Kelly, Treasurer
and Tax Collector, County of Los Angeles, 225 North
Hill Street, First Floor Lobby, Los Angeles, California 90012. For more information, please visit our
website at ttc.lacounty.gov.
The amount to redeem, in dollars and cents, is set
forth opposite its parcel number. This amount includes all defaulted taxes, penalties, and fees that
have accrued from the date of tax-default to the date
of June 30, 2015.
I certify, under penalty of perjury, that the foregoing
is true and correct. Dated this 30th day of April, 2015.

prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiarys bid at said sale may include all or part
of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee
will accept a cashiers check drawn on a state or
national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal
credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal
savings and loan association, savings association
or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the
California Financial Code and authorized to do

return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. 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 recorder's 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 the property. 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

CITY OF CLAREMONT
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
PROPOSED SOLAR PERMITTING
ORDINANCE
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that the City
Council will hold a public hearing to consider
amendments to the Claremont Municipal Code pertaining to the solar panel permitting process within
the City of Claremont. The hearing will be held on
Tuesday, June 9, 2015, at 7:00 p.m., in the City
Council Chamber, 225 W. Second Street, at which
time all interested persons are invited to appear and
be heard.
Section 65850.5(a) of the California Government
Code provides that it is the policy of the State of California to promote and encourage the installation and
use of solar energy systems by limiting obstacles to
their use, and by minimizing the permitting costs of
such systems. In furtherance of that objective, Section 65850.5(g)(1) of the California Government
Code, requires that, on or before September 30,
2015, every city in California must adopt an ordinance that expedites and streamlines the permitting
process for residential rooftop solar energy systems.
The ordinance encourages the installation of solar
energy systems by removing unreasonable barriers,
minimizing costs to property owners and the City of
Claremont, and expanding the ability of property
owners to install solar energy systems. The ordinance allows the City of Claremont to achieve these
goals by streamlining the permitting process of small
residential rooftop solar energy systems.
NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN, that the Director
of Community Development has determined that
this matter is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections
15061(b)(3) on the basis that the amendments do not
have the potential for causing a significant effect on
the environment. Therefore, no further environmental review is necessary.
A copy of the proposed ordinance will be available
for review on the Citys web site, or by contacting
Building Official Jeff Baughman, at jbaughman@ci.claremont.ca.us, Copies of this information are also available at the City Hall public counter,
the Claremont Public Library, Alexander Hughes
Community Center, and the Youth Activity Center
In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities
Act of 1990, any person with a disability who requires a modification or accommodation in order to
participate in a City meeting should contact the City
Clerk at 909/399 5461 VOICE or 1-800/735-2929

I can't say enough about Mason's easy-going professionalism. I have


worked with many real estate agentsbuying and selling a homesome
good and some not so good, but Mason stands above the rest. Although a
busy agent, he made us feel like we were his only clients. It is obvious that
Mason takes pride in his work and helped us through what has usually
been a very stressful process. We were always informed, updated and met
personally when needed. There was never pressure, unnecessary stress or
unanswered questions. I will recommend everyone I know to Mason!
