Parents sue schools
over ground toxins
LAWSUIT SEEKS
PUBLIC HEARING
BEFORE MORGAN
HILL SCHOOL
BOARD
Staff Report
A coalition of parents is
suing the Morgan Hill
Unified School Board
of Education, seeking a
public hearing to address
removal of toxins at a pro-
posed new school site.
The school board “has
refused to even discuss
the matter,” said Chris-
tina Hildebrand,
president and founder
of A Voice for Choice
Advocacy, in a statement
released last month.
“Naturally, this has
parents and local resi-
dents concerned. Fears of
a cover-up, and the sim-
ple need for the commu-
nity to be able to air their
concerns and get some
answers, has motivated
the coalition to take the
district to court,” she said
in the statement.
Hildebrand contends
that state law and the dis-
trict’s own bylaws require
the district to agendize
items upon a request of
the public.
The request concerns
the ‘Borello site’ in Mor-
gan Hill, a proposed
school site that is con-
taminated with the pes-
ticide Dieldrin. In 1987,
the U.S. Environmen-
tal Protection Agency
banned Dieldrin for all
uses. Dieldrin has been
linked to health prob-
lems such as Parkin-
son’s, breast cancer, and
immune, reproductive,
and nervous system dam-
age. It is also an endo-
crine disruptor, severely
hurting the development
of boys.
The Morgan Hill dis-
trict recently authorized
$1.68 million to clean up
the site by digging it up
and hauling off the con-
taminated soil.
In their suit, the par-
ents say they want to know
why the district made this
expenditure, and assert
that this method could
expose surrounding com-
munities to contamina-
tion from airborne dust.
“Bioremediation would
be significantly less costly
and would not create
the same adverse health
impacts on the commu-
nity,” said Hildebrand.
“This is an issue of pro-
found concern,” she said
in a statement. “In the
very least, parents and
neighbors have a right to
know what their children
and their bodies will be
exposed to–and how the
district is spending tax-
payer money. Why won’t
they hold a public hear-
ing? What do they have
to hide?”
The lawsuit, A Voice
for Choice Advocacy v.
Morgan Hill Unified Dis-
trict Board of Education,
was filed in Santa Clara
County Superior Court.
Sanctuary case is over
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION
AGREES TO AVOID FIGHT
WITH CALIFORNIA
Jaqueline McCool
Reporter
Five days after taking the oath of
office in 2017, President Donald
Trump signed an executive order
that would have suspended feder-
al funding for cities and counties
across the US, including Santa Clara
County, that had declared them-
selves legal sanctuaries to protect
undocumented immigrants from ar-
rest by federal agencies.
Santa Clara County and San
Francisco County sued the new
administration over the President’s
executive order, and on Aug. 1 2019,
the Ninth District Court of Appeals
in California ruled that the fund-
ing could not be withheld in Cali-
fornia, and declared Trump’s order
unconstitutional.
The county had said that if the
order had been successful, the
county would have lost $1.7 billion
in federal funds, or 35 percent of its
annual revenue.
In the final order of the federal
appeals court, which dismissed the
Trump administration order “with-
out prejudice,” the federal govern-
ment and the two counties agreed
that the case would not be pur-
sued any further in California, but
added in the agreement that the rul-
ing would not prevent the President
from pursuing the order in other
states.
So-called “sanctuary city” laws
have been a topic of debate within
the county and the federal govern-
ment. In February 2019 a Santa
Clara county resident, Bambi Lar-
son, was murdered by an undocu-
mented immigrant just days after he
had been released from a county jail.
This incident sparked the county
to reconsider its policies, but ulti-
mately maintained its sanctuary
ordinances.
Santa Clara County Supervisor
Mike Wasserman said previously at
an event in Gilroy that the county

The accident stalled two

complied with Immigration and
Custom Enforcement (ICE) seeking
to arrest individuals in the county’s
custody when the agency followed a
specific protocol.
Wasserman said if ICE offered a
judge’s warrant, individuals would
be turned over to the agency, but
said the county does not respond to
ICE detainers, which are not judi-
cial warrants.
The county released a statement
regarding the court decision, declar-
ing it a victory for California and the
county.
“The county’s immigrant pop-
ulation and diversity only make us
stronger, and we are proud to stand
firm against threats to local health
and safety services, even when they
come from the sitting President of
the United States,” said Santa Clara
County Supervisor Dave Cortese
in the statement. The final order
“affirms the county’s litigation strat-
egy to hold the Trump administra-
tion accountable for its conduct,”
he said.

The list of items under CPUC purview is

In addition to the above, the CPUC regulates

But wait, there’s more.
Last year, the CPUC stepped in to
intervene in wildfire prevention, high-speed
rail, the electrification of transportation lines,
the electric grid, battery storage on that grid,
emergency preparedness, clean energy for
disadvantaged communities, broadband
access for rural communities and water on the
Monterey Peninsula.
Given that laundry list of responsibilities,
it is difficult to fathom that the CPUC it was
created by voters in 1911 as a way to check the
power of railroad monopolies.
Over time–thanks particularly to decades
of our elected officials passing off politically
tricky issues–the CPUC has grown into a
catchall for the state’s thorniest problems.
With an annual budget of $1.6 billion,
the commission employs more than 1,300
people and continues to grow each year. It
has become the largest and most powerful
regulating agency in the state, bar none.

OPINION
FROM THE WEB
Low-income housing
near DePaul, St. Louise
Are those who have commented negatively really
against low-income housing for the disabled
and medically fragile (right next to medical
facilities)? Or did they just not read the article?
I assume that if the county is looking into
building this housing, they would go through
all proper channels before doing so. I support
affordable housing next to medical facilities for
the disabled and medically fragile. It’s a great
idea. Transportation to medical appointments is
a big issue for the disabled and medically fragile.
Often this population can't drive, and they rely
on assistance from others. I love the idea of the
low-income housing for those who can't afford or
don't qualify for a setting like Westmont. I hope
this idea sees more development; it’s something
we need in our community.

Apparently reading the actual article is a
thing of the past. People just read part of the
headline and jump into the comments now.
For disabled and medically fragile people who
are low income, it’s a perfect arrangement for

What is
PUBLIC Public Safety Power Shutoff

SAFETY
or PSPS is a precautionary safety
measure that may proactively turn off
power lines when extreme fire danger
conditions are forecast. We will do

POWER
this to reduce wildfire risks and keep
our customers safe.
To receive important outage alerts,
update your contact information at
pge.com/mywildfirealerts.

SHUTOFF?

What criteria does PG&E consider when calling a PSPS?

No single factor will initiate a Public Safety Power Shutoff as each situation is unique.
The factors we generally consider include:
■ A Red Flag Warning declared by the National Weather Service
■ Forecasts of strong winds and wind gusts
■ Low humidity levels
■ Critically dry vegetation that could fuel a wildfire
■ And on-the-ground, real-time observations from PG&E field crews

In the interest of public safety, we continue to update and refine our criteria and
protocols on an ongoing basis.

How will I know if a PSPS has been called in my

neighborhood?
“PG&E” refers to Pacific Gas and Electric Company, a subsidiary of PG&E Corporation. ©2019 Pacific Gas and Electric Company. All rights reserved. Paid for by PG&E shareholders.

Because extreme weather threats can change quickly, our goal is to provide notice through phone calls,
emails and text messages to customers 48 hours in advance, again at 24 hours and again just prior to
turning off the power for safety. Updates will also be shared through social media, local news, radio
and pge.com until the time power is restored. To receive important outage alerts, update your contact
information at pge.com/mywildfirealerts.

How can I prepare for a PSPS?

We advise you to think in advance about your family’s needs and how you might be impacted in
the event of a power shutoff — or for any emergency.

■ Do you have a personal safety plan for all members of your family, including pets?

■ If you own a generator, is it ready to operate safely?

■ Do you know how to open your garage door manually?

■ D
o you have cash and a full tank of gas, in the event ATMs and gas stations
are unavailable?

■ Are your mobile phones fully charged?

at the groundbreaking ceremony.
Extending 13 miles from Buena Vista
Avenue in Gilroy to just beyond Llagas Road
within the City of Morgan Hill, the project is
designed to protect hundreds of properties
susceptible to flooding during storm events.
The planning and design effort required the
acquisition of approximately 150 parcels and
resource agency permit negotiations, as well
as consultations with the local community.
“Like many of you, I vividly remem-
ber the aftermath of some of the major
flooding incidents in Morgan Hill over the
years,” said John L. Varela, Valley Water
board representative for District 1 and a
longtime resident of Morgan Hill, “I want
to say thank you to Santa Clara County vot-
ers for approving Measure B.”
The Clean, Safe Creeks project is a
partnership with the US Army Corps of
Engineers and the state to plan, design
and construct improvements along 13.9
miles of channel. The project extends
from Buena Vista Avenue to Wright Ave-
nue, including West Little Llagas Creek in
downtown Morgan Hill.
The federally authorized preferred proj-
ect is designed to protect the urban area
of Morgan Hill from a 1 percent (or 100-
year) flood, and reduce the frequency of
flooding in surrounding areas. Construc-
tion includes channel modifications and
replacement of road crossings.
The water district continues to work
with Congress to aggressively pursue
additional federal funds needed to com-
plete the project. In 2012, project lim-
its were extended 2,700 feet upstream to
Llagas Road to address public concerns.
Phase 1 construction was approved in
May by the Valley Water District’s board
of directors. Construction of Phase 1 was
scheduled to begin Tuesday, Sep. 3. Work
for this phase consists of channel widening
and deepening, instream improvements
for wildlife and habitat, and revegetation.
The project will be constructed in two
phases, with each phase having specific

2000 Measure A VTA delivers transportation solutions critical to the vitality, prosperity
Fiscal Year 2018 and quality of life for all who live, work, study or play in Santa Clara
County.
In November 2000, Santa Clara County voters approved Measure A,
a 30-year half-cent sales tax devoted to specific public transit capital
improvement projects and operations. Tax collection began in
mid-2006, making FY 2018 the 12th year of the 30-year program.

2000 Measure A
Citizens Watchdog
Committee Finding
Santa Clara County voters entrusted the Citizens Watchdog
Committee (CWC), comprised of fellow community members, with
overseeing Measure A expenditures to ensure sales tax dollars are
spent as intended by the ballot. After thorough and careful consider-
ation:
It is the conclusion of the CWC that, for the period of FY 2018,
2000 Measure A tax dollars were spent in accordance with the
intent of the measure.

FY 2018 Key • Extending BART to the Silicon Valley cities of Milpitas, San Jose
Accomplishments and Santa Clara. Construction for the two stations and parking
structures for BART Silicon Valley Phase I was completed and
systems integration testing is underway. Revenue service is
projected by the end of 2019. In FY 2018, the VTA Board of
Directors certified Phase II’s Subsequent Environmental Impact
Report, approved a single-bore tunneling methodology, and
approved two station options: Downtown San Jose West and
Diridon Station North. Phase II also received a Record of Decision
from the Federal Transit Administration, the first required step to
seek federal funding.
• Improving Bus Service in Major Corridors. The Alum Rock Santa
Clara Bus Rapid Transit had its first complete year of operation in
FY 2018. Curb side shelters will be installed to enhance customer
experience.
• Extending Light Rail from Downtown San Jose to the East Valley.
Final engineering was advanced for the Eastridge to BART
Regional Connector Project (EBRC) in FY 2018. The supplemental
environmental report incorporating aerial alignment and express-
way geometry improvements was adopted in June 2019.

FRIENDLY YET INTENSE GHOST Robert The Ghost Guerrero fights Jerry Thomas on the undercard of the Errol Spence Jr.-Shawn

GUERRERO
LOOKS TO GO
3-0 SINCE
UNRETIRING
emanuel lee
Sports Editor
The Ghost is back. Last Novem-
ber, Robert “The Ghost” Guer-
rero released a statement that he
was coming out of retirement to
resume his boxing career. Out of
action for 18 months, the lifelong
Gilroy resident has gone 2-0 in
his second act and fights Jerry
Thomas in a 10-round match on
the undercard of the Errol Spen-
to hear it from them. They’re not
a bunch of yes-men—they’ll tell
it to me straight. They’ll tell me
what I need to hear.”
Guerrero trained for a cou-
ple of months before finalizing
his decision. When Guerrero first
had the itch to come out of retire-
ment, he told Casey, ‘My body
is feeling great and I’m feeling
young again. I think I want to
make another run at this.’ Casey
was hesitant at first, noting she
didn’t like the fights her hus-
band were involved in over the
last several years, which included
a third-round knockout loss—the
only one of his career—to Omar
Figueroa Jr. on July 15, 2017.
It was the proud Gilroyan’s
Robert Eliason

ce Jr.-Shawn Porter FOX pay per
view event on Sept. 28 at the Sta-
ples Center in Los Angeles.
“I see myself breaking him
down later in the fight,” the
36-year-old Guerrero said in an
interview inside Pound 4 Pound
Sports Fitness, the gym owned
by Ruben Guerrero, Robert’s
father. “He throws punches at
weird angles, and overall he has
a weird style. He’s a good fighter,
and it’s going to take some time
to break him down. I’ll have to
do it behind a sharp jab and use
my footwork to slide in and out
and hit him at different angles.”
Guerrero had just finished
a 5-mile run when he sat down
with a reporter, and he was
jovial, upbeat and relaxed. He
seemed calm and at peace with
his decision to come out of
retirement, especially since he
received the support of his entire
boxing/management team and
the most important person of
all—his wife, Casey.
“Everyone could’ve said yes
and if she said no, it was going to
be a no-go,” said Guerrero (35-6-
1), whose storied career includes
winning world titles as a feath-
erweight and junior lightweight,
plus interim belts at lightweight
and welterweight. “I had my team
assess me and give it to me raw. If
fourth loss in six fights, and a
couple of days after that defeat,
Guerrero announced his retire-
ment. Prior to the Figueroa fight,
Guerrero was also involved in
what ESPN.com boxing writer
Dan Rafael wrote as a “brutal
slugfest” with Yoshihiro Kamegai.
Even in defeating Kamegai by
decision, Guerrero suffered some
heavy, heavy damage.
“Casey told me she didn’t like
to see the type of fights I had been
fighting,” Guerrero said. “I told
her, ‘I’ll tell you what. I’ll make a
deal with you. Come take a look
at me (train and spar) and if you
say it’s a no, it’s a no.’ She watched
me and said, ‘Wow, you look
great. You look different and you
look alive. You’re boxing.’”
That last statement reverber-
ated with Guerrero, who said he
had morphed from a dynamic
and shifty boxer to a fighter who
in an act of machismo slugged it
out with fighters who were nat-
urally heavier than he was. If
Guerrero came out of retirement,
he told himself and his team that
he would come back a different
boxer. The positive was Guer-
rero didn’t have to reinvent him-
self; he said he just had to return
to the approach that earned him
multiple world titles in a couple
of different weight classes.
THE SWEET SCIENCE Robert The Ghost Guerrero spars at Pound 4 Pound Fitness in preparation for his
upcoming fight with Jerry Thomas. Guerrero looks to go 3-0 since coming out of retirement last November.

things that earned him one of
the best nicknames in the his-
tory of sports—The Ghost. Guer-
rero said as he started moving
up in weight classes—he started
his career at 122 pounds—he
developed a different mental-
ity, that, while exciting to fight
fans, probably proved more det-
rimental to his career.
“I was just trying to act like
this big, bad bully guy in the
ring,” he said. “The higher I got
in weight, the more I tried to
show what I could do (power-
wise). My boxing skills, the foot-
work, hand speed and move-
ment—everything went out the
door. My attitude was, ‘I’ll take
your punch, let’s see if you can
take mine’ And at the welter-
weight (147 pounds) division,
you can’t do that. These guys
would pick me apart.”
Guerrero was 9 when received
his nickname from local trainer
Rick Mello, who was watching
one of Guerrero’s sparring ses-
sions. As he rose up the junior
and amateur ranks, Guerrero
was known for his ability to move
in and out and dodge punches—
befuddling his opponents—and
on some occasions he might have
even let his opponents know they
weren’t connecting.
According to Guerrero, one
day Mello said, ‘He’s like a ghost,’
and the name stuck immedi-
ately. For Guerrero to reach his
goal in the second act of his
career—fighting for a world title
belt—he’ll have to display all of
the skills that earned him the
moniker, The Ghost.
Guerrero said his fundamen-
tal boxing skills eroded as he
engaged in more slugfests, and
he plans on going back to the
basics. Work the jab. Stay on the
outside. Be light on his feet. Con-
stantly move. When Guerrero
retired in July 2017, he said he
made a somewhat rash decision.
“I just had a lot of issues going
on at the time, and I needed to
step away from boxing,” he said.
“I had some battles in not putting
God first as much as I should
even though I knew I should. At
the same time, we’re all human
and we all slip, whether you real-
ize it or not. Retirement was kind
of premature.”
So the question remains,
when you’re Robert Guerrero,
when you’ve literally done it
all—win world championships,
go a full 12 rounds with arguably
the greatest boxer of all time in
Floyd Mayweather Jr. and max-
imize your God-given talent and
abilities—why come back?
With the recent deaths of
two boxers in the news and
the evidence that repetitive head
trauma leads to Chronic Trau-
matic Encephalopathy (CTE)—
a progressive degenerative dis-
ease of the brain where patients
experience myriad cognitive and
behavioral problems and even-
tually progressive dementia—
a professional boxer like Guer-
rero has to ask himself, ‘When is
enough enough?’

Resident of Hollister. Born
in San Jose to Jack & Mary
Turturici. Graduated from
Campbell High School in 1938.
Attended San Jose State College
for one year then enrolled at
O’Connor School of Nursing,
graduating in 1942. While at
nursing school she was awarded
from the U.S. Public Service with the Meritorius Service Medal
for her contribution as an instructor for members of the U.S.
Cadet Nursing Corp during war time. Upon graduation she
married her high school sweetheart Paul who was now in the
army. A union that lasted forty years with endless memories.
In 1950, the family moved to Hollister where Paul farmed
and she continued in nursing. After forty years of nursing
she retired in 1982. She continued with her education and

regularly and considered the members of the church as her
second family.
Joan wouldn’t leave the house without her hair done
and dressed stylishly (the New Yorker in her!). She always
had a smile for you. She would always tell us (her kids) to
“have a nice day…. make it a better day for somebody else”
when we left the house. This was something she never
stopped saying to us till her last days.
Joan was widowed in 2011 when her husband of
53 years passed. She was the proud and loving mother
of Douglas (Cindy), Christine (John Mittlestead), Karen
Minteer and Steven. She was grandmother to nine

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
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 may call
800-758-8052 for information
regarding the trustee's sale
or visit this Internet Web site
www.homesearch.com for
information regarding the sale
of this property, using the file
number assigned to this case

about postponements that
are very short in duration or

SHUTOFF?
What criteria does PG&E consider when calling a PSPS?

“PG&E” refers to Pacific Gas and Electric Company, a subsidiary of PG&E Corporation. ©2019 Pacific Gas and Electric Company. All rights
No single factor will initiate a Public Safety Power Shutoff as each situation is unique. The factors we generally consider include:
■ A Red Flag Warning declared by the National Weather Service
■ Forecasts of strong winds and wind gusts
■ Low humidity levels
■ Critically dry vegetation that could fuel a wildfire
■ And on-the-ground, real-time observations from PG&E field crews

In the interest of public safety, we continue to update and refine our criteria and protocols on an ongoing basis.
How will I know if a PSPS has been called in my neighborhood?
Because extreme weather threats can change quickly, our goal is to provide notice through phone calls, emails and text
messages to customers 48 hours in advance, again at 24 hours and again just prior to turning off the power for safety. Updates
will also be shared through social media, local news, radio and pge.com until the time power is restored. To receive important
outage alerts, update your contact information at pge.com/mywildfirealerts.

How can I prepare for a PSPS?

We advise you to think in advance about your family’s needs and how you might be impacted in the event of a power shutoff — or for any emergency.

GARLIC
FOR GILROYGilroy native, now living in
Alaska, crafts glass garlic bulbs
for shooting victims’ relief
BY WALLACE BAINE

T
he echoes of the Gilroy Gar-
lic Festival shooting sounded
all over the world. And that in-
cludes far-away Skagway, Alas-
ka where at least one local
resident proudly sports a tattoo of a garlic bulb.
His name is Spencer Silva, and he’s a pro-
fessional glass artist who works at Jewell Gar-
dens in Skagway, nicknamed the “Garden City
of Alaska.” He’s also a native of Gilroy.
At Jewell, the main attractions are flowers
and glass sculptures. It’s the home of Garden
City Glassworks, a public glassblowing studio
open to anyone. Silva helps people make their
own Christmas ornaments in glass, and does
some production work in glassblowing as well.
Now, in solidarity with the town where he
grew up, Silva is offering up his own hand-
made glass garlic bulbs, with net proceeds
going to the Gilroy Foundation to help the
town heal from the shooting.
“I definitely have garlic in my blood,” said
Silva in a phone interview from Alaska. ➝ 6

FOUNDATION HELP Spencer Silva sold more than $1,000 worth

of glass garlic bulbs on the first day they were offered.

The glass bulbs come in pure
white, or white with a purple
base. They are in size somewhere
between a standard bulb of garlic
and a bulb of elephant garlic. They
sell for $60 a piece with another
$15 for shipping. And they are
selling quite well. The first day he
offered them for sale, he brought in
more than $1,000.

parents on behalf of the GHS cross
country and track teams. Even well
after high school, the Garlic Festi-
val was where Silva reunited with
old friends each summer.
“It’s always played a big role
in my life,” he said of the festival.
“Up until the last four years or so, I
went every year.”
Then came July 28. Silva was
camping in Canada’s Yukon Terri-

Kelley, South Valley Junior High,
Gilroy High’s class of 2006. He is the
son of Art and Cathy Silva, veteran
teachers and coaches at Gilroy High.
As a child, young Spencer vis-
ited the Garlic Festival every year,
and as a teen he worked in a gar-
lic-bread booth managed by his
6
tory at the time (Skagway is about
a half hour’s drive from the Cana-
dian border). He was out of cell
phone range, but once back in civi-
lization, he got a text from a friend
informing him of the shooting. His
parents had been at the festival
that day. ➝ 6

GARLIC FOR GILROY 6
WORKING FOR GOOD Spencer Silva is using his glassblowing skills to help
support those affected by the Gilroy Garlic Festival shooting.
“I called my parents; no one was
picking up,” he said. “I called my
siblings, family friends. It was
about an hour or hour and a half
later when I finally heard from
them. They were fine. But it was
very stressful.”
The shooting was on his mind
the following week when he was
called on to create a series of glass
vegetables—tomatoes, turnips,
pumpkins, etc.—for centerpieces at
a special dinner at Jewell Gardens.
“I had been wanting to make
glass garlic bulbs for a couple of
years,” he said. “But I never did.”
Making the other glass vegetables
inspired him. He went to the glass-
blowing studio and created some
garlic bulbs.
“They turned out fantastic,” he
said. “I thought immediately, ‘I
should do something with this.’”
That something was selling
them as a means to raise money
for the Gilroy Foundation. He took
a few photos, posted them online
and “suddenly, it just started blow-
ing up.”
Silva has been a glass artist for
about nine years, having started as an
undergrad at Cal State Chico and con-
tinued on with Bullseye Glass in Port-
land. He said that the glass garlic is a
natural response to an unnatural act.
“I just couldn’t believe it,” he
said of the shooting. “It’s the Gar-
lic Festival. Why would something
like that happen there? It’s just
families coming together to eat
food and check out some art and
music. I never could see why some-
thing like that could happen at the
Garlic Festival. It was unbelievable
to me. It broke my heart.”
These days, he said, the glass
bulbs are still selling well, and that
the Gilroy Unified School District
has put in a big order.
“I’m just glad I’m able to give
something back,” he said.

for Gilroy” glass art, visit garlicfor-

 ON SENIORS
Healing after tragedy
BE KIND Family, faith and acts of kindness are powerful healers.
I
Seniors share t seems like barely a day
goes by before we read of
ways of coping
yet another tragedy in our
community, state or coun-
try. As people wonder why
with adversity and wonder how to heal, I turned to
our seniors here at Live Oak Adult
SEPTEMBER 6, 2019
By CHERYL HUGUENOR Day Services to hear their views.
Over the years we have met
countless seniors at this center who
have experienced grief, violence,
wartime combat, racism, and loss
of every kind. I am always amazed
by the stories they tell, and mar-
vel at their equanimity in the face
14 of adversity. How did they manage
to go on? The same coping mech-
anisms are mentioned over and
over: family, faith and the kindness
of others, even strangers.
Barbara tells of a childhood acci-
dent that left her burned and hos-
pitalized for months on end. She
remembers what seemed like end-
less pain and loneliness, and says
that it was the kindness of hospi-
tal volunteers who visited and com-
forted her that helped her heal the
most.
“They didn’t know me at all, but
they could sense that I needed their
presence,” she said. “Ever since then
I have tried to pay them back by
always being kind to someone else.”
Other seniors here have survived
the deaths of their children, some-
times even very young children, expe-
riences I can barely fathom. It is their
reliance on other family members
for support, and their spiritual faith
that they credit with allowing them
to even want to get out of bed in the
face of such grief. And we have seen
an increase in the number of retired
military seniors who remain trauma-
tized by their experiences in battle.
One man was a prisoner of war who
escaped imminent death. They often
do not want to discuss the past, but
visibly rely on the presence of their
families and other veterans.
When I listen to their stories
of loss and heartache, I marvel at
their emotional strength. I some-
times credit them with almost
superhuman strength. Yet they see
themselves as ordinary, and their
experiences as no worse than oth-
ers had to bear. They see the com-
mon humanity of each member
of the community, an attitude of
“we’re all in this together.” It is
what spurs Barbara to pass along
the kindness she received when she
needed it most.
In each newspaper article about
violence there is always a line or
two about someone who stepped
forward to help. Our first respond-
ers are incredibly brave and appre-
ciated. So, too, are the “ordinary”
people in the community who
reach out to the grief-stricken and
the traumatized.
Our Live Oak seniors have felt
that kindness themselves over the
years and now they hope to inspire
each of us to follow their exam-
ple and pay it back by being kind
to someone else. Family, faith,
and acts of kindness are powerful
healers.

vices in Gilroy. For information,

New tasting room and more
winery news By LAURA NESS
C
hange is ever afoot
here in wine coun-
try. TASS has depart-
ed the shared tasting
room called Blended, and Medeiros
Family will do the same on Oct. 6,
leaving La Vie Dansante dancing
solo. Says TASS owner Ron Mos-
ley, “Both of us just ran into better
opportunities.”
Ted and Tammie Medeiros of
Medeiros Family Wines are headed
up to Fair Play, where they pur-
chased the former Single Leaf
Winery. It’s 20 acres, with seven
planted to vines, plus a home and
tasting room.
“We wanted to stay here in the
Valley, but the economics just don’t
work,” Ted Medeiros said. “I had
hoped to retire up there someday, but
now retirement is null and void.”

 GARDENING
Reptiles can be useful
GARDEN RESIDENT Local reptiles will feed on ants, beetles, wasps and other garden pests.
R
Lizards, snakes eptiles in gardens? Let’s
hope so!
feed on garden
You may see a liz-
ard scurrying for cover
under your lettuces, or a snake
pests slithering across your strawberry
patch, but what are they doing in
SEPTEMBER 6, 2019
By KATE RUSSELL your garden? Are they pests or
helpers? And what’s the difference
between reptiles and amphibians?
Reptiles and amphibians are
both cold-blooded. If you want to
attract reptiles and amphibians to
your garden, this is helpful infor-
mation. The difference between
16 reptiles and amphibians is seen
in their skin. Reptiles have dry,
scaly skin, while amphibians have
smooth, moist skin. Also, amphib-
ians start their lives in water,
breathing through gills, while rep-
tiles do not.
The reptile clan includes liz-
ards, snakes and turtles. Most rep-
tiles hatch from eggs, while some
give live birth. Reptiles shed their
skin as they grow, so you may find
signs of a resident lizard, even if it
is too shy to let you catch it out in
the open.
Most reptiles are carnivores or
insectivores, though there are a
few exceptions. This is what makes
(most of ) them so useful in the
garden. Local reptiles will feed on
aphids, ants, beetles, flies, wasps,
grasshoppers, slugs and snails,
smaller reptiles, baby voles, mice
and rats, sowbugs, earwigs and
practically anything else they can
grab, including beneficial spiders
and worms.
Creating habitat for native rep-
tiles in or near your garden is an
easy way to limit pest populations
without any chemicals or effort on
your part. Just be sure that you do
not release an invasive pet reptile
into your yard; it is against the law
and can lead to serious problems.
In California, native lizards may
not be captured or sold, so you can’t
buy them. What you can do is cre-
ate a welcoming habitat. Sooner or
later, they will find it.
Use these tips to provide healthy
habitat for reptiles and their prey:
install native grasses, groundcov-
ers and nectar- or berry-producing
plants; mulch; leave leaf litter on
the ground; allow vines or creepers
to grow up fences; provide a vari-
ety of sun and shade; provide rocks,
logs and large pieces of bark as hid-
ing and sunning locations; provide
fresh, clean water in a protected
spot; avoid using chemical fertiliz-
ers, pesticides and snail bait; and
keep cats indoors.
Nearly all reptiles found in
this area are harmless, with the
exception of rattlesnakes, Mexican
bearded lizards, gila monsters and
a handful of others. Since rep-
tiles are mostly shy, conflicts are
rare. Creating habitat for these
elusive garden helpers is a great
way to cut back on your work-
load, while increasing biodiversity
in your garden.
