Scientists announce progress against Phorid fly scourge

By Chris Barber Contributing Writer

A team of scientists from Pennsylvania State University that is working with local mushroom growers is making progress in the battle with the Phorid fly scourge.

Phorids have been aggravating homeowners and devastating mushroom crops in the southern Chester County area since the major control pesticide, diazinon, was banned for use on the fungus by the Environmental Protection Agency in 2012.

On Jan 28, State Rep Christina Sappey, who represents the 158th district, held a virtual meeting to share information about recent work on the problem.

During that meeting, the scientists reported results of a fairly successful advancement, which on one farm has come close to eliminating the flies entirely.

Presenting during the virtual meeting were Penn State Mushroom Pest Research Team members Mike Wolfin, Tom Baker and Nina Jenkins; local legislators state Sen.

Carolyn Comitta (D-19) of West Chester, state Rep. Craig Williams (R-160) of Glen Mills, and state Rep. John Lawrence (R-13) of West Grove. Pennsylvania Secretary of Agriculture Russ Redding also presented an overview of the problem at the state level.

The positive innovation was the topic of much of the meeting, that involves an electrostatic window screen infused with an approved insecticide that kills the flies as they go through the grid both coming in and going out during their life spans.

Wolfin, an insect behaviorist ecologist, spoke at length about how he researched and developed the screen, as well as how it works.

Wolfin has been compiling data since he began the project in 2017.

He said he began the project by learning about the behavior of the flies –where they are born, what they eat, how they breed and where they travel. He referenced the behavior of the flies, noting that their numbers increased dramatically in 2012 when the

After several weeks of further discussions with emergency services professionals at two fire companies that serve their constituency, the Kennett Township Board of Supervisors reaffirmed at their Feb. 3 online meeting a motion made a month before that will make Longwood Fire Company the township’s single-source provider of advanced life support (ALS) and basic life support (BLS) beginning on March 1. This will be a one-year agreement.

Under the guidelines of the agreement, Longwood, which is the current EMS provider for the eastern portion of the township – the area east of Bayard Road – will become the sole provider of EMS services in the area of the township that is west of Bayard Road. Longwood will be operating two advanced life support mobile intensive care unit (ALS MICU) vehicles, two BLS ambulances and one ALS chase car. In reaching the decision, the township follows the recommendation of a 2016 study created by the Regional Fire and EMS

Avon Grove grad helps take THON to new heights

The Penn State Dance Marathon provides muchneeded support to children and families impacted by childhood cancer. When this year’s event takes place Feb. 19 to 21, Lindsay Traino, a graduate of Avon Grove High School, will be one of its key organizers

By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer

Lindsay Traino, a 2017 graduate of Avon Grove High School and a native of Avondale, has been making an impact in the lives of children and families affected by childhood cancer through her work as a volunteer for the Penn State Dance Marathon.

Popularly known as THON, this event is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world, and has raised $180 million for the fight against childhood cancers through the years.

Lindsay was well aware of the mission of THON and of its importance when she arrived on the Penn State campus as a freshman.

“I got involved right away,” she said. Leading up to the 2021 THON, Traino, now a college senior, is serving as an “OPPerations Director,” and has a leadership role in planning the event. Her responsibilities include supporting the 21 “OPPerations Captains” as well as its 750 committee members. Together,

Oxford police now equipped with body cameras

By Betsy Brewer Brantner Contributing Writer

Oxford Borough Police Chief Sam Iacono told Oxford Borough Council at the meeting on Monday night, “Oxford Borough police are now equipped with body cameras and an in-car video. We have finished training for both. When officers hit the streets, body cams will be located on the officer’s chest. We will be fine-tuning it, but expect to be 100 percent by next month.”

Iacono added, “We have been very busy this month. Our new scheduling software is up and running. Our CRIMEWATCH program, which is free, is also online and available for the com-

munity or anyone to hook into.”

Officer Chris Coverly gave council a briefing on the program saying, “this a free resource available to the Oxford community and the surrounding area. You can sign up at: www.oxfordboropd.org.”

Flyers, in English and Spanish, were also distributed throughout the community. Notifications can be received either by email or participants can receive mobile notifications by downloading an app.

The police department also welcomed two new part-time police officers: Karlianna Eller and Jacob Williams. Eller was formerly at Lincoln University and Coatesville and Williams

was at Parkesburg. Both officers said they are anxious to start to work for Oxford.

Oxford police also received $3,000 in grant money by working in partnership with Chester County. The money will be used to purchase drug-testing equipment.

The department also received, through federal funds, $19,000 worth of COVID-19 equipment, including a standup thermometer.

Iacono did report that one officer will be off for eight to twelve weeks due to an off-the-job injury.

Council also approved a motion to authorize the notice for the conditional-use hearing on the application of Daniel B. Neff to operate

a physical therapy clinic at 46 S. 3rd St. Neff has purchased the building, which is the site of the former Rite Aid. The hearing is scheduled for March 1.

Council member Dick Winchester questioned whether this would also have to go before the Historic Architecture Review Board and was told by the solicitor that it would.

Public works director John Schaible told council that the N. 2nd Street water main project is nearly completed. Council approved a payment to B.P. Patterson in the amount of $126,972.

Paving and re-trenching will be done when weather permits.

Schaible explained that the current weather is wreaking

havoc on the streets. “The constant freezing and thawing causes the road surface to loosen. We will need to do paving work in the very near future,” he said. Besides the snow removal and salting that Public Works has done, Schaible told Ccuncil that Public Works has cleared nearly three-fourths of a mile of sidewalk in the borough. Council did receive clarification from the borough solicitor regarding snow emergencies. Schaible also explained that the community has been permitted to park free in the parking garage during snow emergencies or in order to allow the borough to plow parking areas and streets.

EMS provider...

Commission that called for the township to explore the possibility of moving to a one-source provider of EMS and ambulance services – east and west of Bayard Road.

The path the township took to arrive at the final decision began in earnest last fall, and has been paved with opinions and disagreements between the supervisors. It reached its zenith at the board’s Dec. 2, 2020 online meeting, when after four hours of back-and-forth verbal tussles, the board voted 2-1 to approve the contract with Longwood – but delay its starting time until March 1.

Board Chairman Dr. Richard Leff and board Vice Chair Whitney Hoffman voted in favor of the motion and subsequently the delay, while supervisor Scudder Stevens voted against the motion entirely.

The reasoning behind the delay was to allow the Kennett Fire Company –who had been providing EMS support to the western portion of the township west of Bayard Road – time to resubmit a proposal no later than Jan. 20, which would be considered by the board. Soon after the vote to delay the final decision was reached, Hoffman and township Manager Eden Ratliff conducted joint and

they work to maintain a safe and healthy environment for Four Diamonds Families and student volunteers at all pre-THON events, as well as during THON weekend.

The event is typically held at the Bryce Jordan Center in State College, Pa., but of course the COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated some adjustments—for the safety of THON volunteers, Four Diamonds families, and all supporters, the 2021 THON weekend will take place virtually from Feb. 19 to 21.

Lindsay said that she’s very proud of what they’ve been able to plan, despite the limitations imposed by the health crisis.

THON weekend will consist of performance groups, Four Diamonds family speakers, and annual favorites such as a pep rally, headlining artists, the kids talent and fashion show,

individual meetings with both companies, in order to potentially create a budget for a two-tier EMS delivery partnership model between the two companies.

The results found that the model would not be efficient, the argument of which was reflected in two letters sent by Ratliff to Kennett Fire Company chief Bruce Mitchell, deputy chief Steve Melton and vice president Gina Puoci.

Ratliff’s Jan. 21 letter indicated that the company did not formally provide a proposal to the township on or before the Jan. 20 deadline.

“Accordingly, and consistent with the Fire, Rescue, and Ambulance Services Agreement executed by the Board of Supervisors on January 4, 2021, all first due Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support coverage will be assigned to Longwood Fire Company effective March 1, 2021,” Ratliff wrote.

Subsequently, the township then received a letter dated Jan. 27 from the Kennett Fire Company that proposed an EMS hybrid

model that would use one MICU, a BLS ambulance and an ALS chase car –at a projected savings of $45,425 to the township.

“It is our stance that this hybrid model provides less expensive and more optimal coverage to the region,” the letter stated.

A second letter from Ratliff to the company on Jan. 28 further informed them that the fire company’s proposal was issued seven days past the deadline, and stated that it did not include a “comprehensive operational strategy for deployment” of the model.

Hoffman and Ratliff met with representatives of the company on Jan. 29 for a three-hour meeting.

Stevens objects again

Just as he had demonstrated during the Dec. 2 meeting – that was highlighted by a 90-minute argument that vehemently opposed giving exclusive EMS coverage rights to Longwood -- Stevens again voiced his displeasure on Feb. 3. He suggested that the decision had not taken

family hour, and more. In keeping with THON tradition, the event will still be 46 hours long. Dancers will only be asked to stand for part of this time with designated rest hours between midnight and 6 a.m., in order to ensure each individual dancer’s safety. Dancers will be challenged to complete a

set of tasks from home to show their support for the Four Diamonds families.

The recording of all events for the livestream will follow all the COVID-19 guidelines that have been set in place by Penn State University, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and the local government.

with the 2-1 decision, reached by the board in December. sion may result in Kennett Square Borough dropping out of the six-member Regional Fire and EMS Commission, which may lead to the dissolution of the Commission;

While the Longwood proposal suggests a savings of $29,000 for the township, Kennett’s proposal would save $45,000, he said.

Stevens then reeled off several points, arguing that

• given the new agreement, township residents would be spending $400 more per each EMS visit from Longwood than from Kennett;

• that because there would be little chance for a Longwood “chase car” to be stationed at the Kennett Fire Company, it would result in a longer response time for Longwood to answer EMS calls;

• that the township’s deci-

• that personnel, human relations or quality of service concerns were never raised by either Hoffman or Ratliff during negotiations with Kennett Fire and EMS, and

• that the six-month discussion that ultimately ended in the township’s agreement with Longwood has been about saving the township money, especially given that Kennett’s proposal is “less expensive and less disruptive.”

Stevens then called for the postponement of the deci-

sion until Kennett Fire and EMS has had an opportunity to respond to Ratliff’s letter. Hoffman opposed Stevens’ suggestion.

“Number one, we have sat down and we’ve talked to them in person since [the letter was sent], so therefore your point is not well taken,” she responded to Stevens. “Number two, we have already made a decision when we voted at our previous meeting, so this is not about postponing any decision. The decision has already been made, right?”

“It’s not right, Whitney, it can be changed,” Stevens replied. “Don’t ask me, ‘Right?’ when I don’t agree with you.”

Hoffman further explained one detail that supported her decision.

Lindsay, who majors in middle level mathematics education with a minor in special education, said that she is excited to help the THON organization grow and improve, even in the face of challenges this year, as it pushes forward in the fight against childhood cancer. She talked about how students from many different backgrounds and experiences come together to improve the lives of those fighting hard to beat childhood cancer.

“It’s nice to see college students involved in something that is bigger than them,” she said. “They all come into it with huge hearts.”

She shared a favorite memory of being involved with THON.

“Last year, at the Family Carnival, my co-captains and I played duck-duckgoose with a few kids in the middle of the gym,” she said. “It went on for the longest time because these kids did not want to stop playing. It was such a magical moment to watch these kids each get a turn to chase us and watch them smile as we were tagged and sent to the picklepot. To anyone watching it probably seemed like another silly game, but getting to connect with those

kids and watch them laugh and play was a very special moment for me.”

Lindsay said that she really became aware of the impact that childhood cancer can have on a family back when she was still in middle school and she read the blog of a local mother who had a child who was battling cancer.

“I remember being really affected by that,” she said.

Participating in THON for four years has deepened her commitment to helping others. While she completes her studies at Penn State, she will continue to work on initiatives that will help the organization improve moving forward, such as making THON a zero-waste organization.

In the future, when she’s a teacher, she would like to serve as a miniTHON advisor or maybe help a school launch a mini-THON program if it doesn’t already have one. She definitely wants to continue to help with the mission of THON.

“This organization will definitely be with me forever,” she said.

“One of the major problems we have is the way that the Kennett Fire Company is doing their staffing,” she said. “They are using people from their EMS service to staff the fire trucks during the day, because they don’t have a lot of volunteers during the day -- the busiest time for EMS service overall, with the highest utilization rate.

“Right when we need ambulances the most, Kennett Fire is pulling those folks off to go work on the fire trucks,” Hoffman added. “So there are fewer ambulances available, because they don’t have enough adequate staffing. They are working toward paid fire staff, but until that gets done, I think that there are people in the western part of Kennett Township who are put at risk for there not being any people on the ambulance at the Kennett Fire Company when there is a fire call.”

Stevens responded to Hoffman and Ratliff by saying that he considered “it most unfortunate” that he was not included in additional meetings with the Kennett Fire Company, and called the lack of communication “reprehensible.”

“Nobody passed that word on to me,” he said. “I am the one that has taken the front point on fire and EMS, and I am one of the co-makers of [the Regional Fire and EMS Commission]. I am deeply involved, as you all know, and nobody tells me that you had a meeting, that you talked about it, that they had answered your letter orally as opposed to in writing, and that Whitney has a written a letter that I don’t get a copy of, but it relates to what we are talking about.”

Stevens then accused Ratliff of “moving the goal posts at this late hour,” as well as addressing “quality

of service” in discussions with the Kennett Fire Company but not doing the same in talks with the Longwood Fire Company.

“I don’t agree that we’re moving the goal posts, and I am not engaging in any conversation about quality of service,” Ratliff said. “I have said many times that there are great providers at both companies.”

Leff summarized the decision by saying that while the decision to use a onesource provider of EMS service to the township may or may not be a perfect solution, “I know that it’s an improvement over what we have,” he said.

Stevens then responded to Leff.

“While all of you have been talking, I have had a running dialogue with various people from Kennett Fire and EMS, and they all agree that what is being presented is not what was

discussed -- it was not the way it went down,” he told Leff. “Your recounting of the history that you were not a part of is not accurate, and your interpretation of it, in my view, is inaccurate.

“We’ll know in another year, may be a year and a half, whether your wisdom is well-founded,” Stevens added. “It is what it is, but there are a lot of lives on the line, however, and that’s what disturbs me greatly. What this started out to be was a savings in money, and it turns out that it was not a savings in money. It’s a whole lot of other things.”

Referring to the Kennett Fire Company, Stevens said, “You have a lot of lives who are employed here and live here, and they’re going to be moved out of what they are doing and will have to go find something else. It’s going to have an impact on a whole lot of things, and I don’t think we have a real

Fulton Bank donates to the Oxford Area School District’s elementary school strings program

Fulton Bank recently presented a donation to the Oxford Area School District’s elementary school strings program.

The $5,000 donation was made through the Oxford Educational Foundation (OEF) and the state Educational Investment Tax Credit Program (EITCP), which

is designed to encourage banks and other business institutions to support education by providing tax credits based on the amount of gifts made to Pennsylvania schools.

Now in its second year, the strings component expands the district’s band curriculum to an orchestra program with the addition

of violin, cello and bass instruction in grades three and four. The strings program was established with support from the Oxford Educational Foundation, and is designed to expand to additional grade levels in the future.

“Where many school districts are cutting back in the arts, Oxford Area School

District has always kept the arts on the forefront, and programs like the EITCP help make that possible,” said OEF executive director Dr. Raymond Fischer. For over a decade, OEF has served as a state-approved Educational Improvement Organization, making the foundation eligible for gifts through EITCP.

clear view of the number of dominoes that are going to get bumped over in this process.”

Supervisor proposes formation of regional EMS unit

In a prepared statement, Hoffman called on both fire companies to work with the Regional Fire and EMS Commission in considering the idea of forming a joint regional EMS company that would consolidate ambulance services in a more efficient model, which would be used by both Longwood and Kennett.

Such an agency, she said, “will provide us with the high-quality services we need, while achieving regional cost savings through ‘back office’ efficiencies, and eliminating the duplication of emergency

response vehicles which add additional expenses to taxpayers throughout the region. Emergency response vehicles and the need to outfit them properly is very expensive, and the unnecessary duplication of equipment has perhaps led to spending of tax dollars less than efficiently in the past due to our historical choices and set up.

“In these times, when so many people are in pain economically and more aware of the importance of good health and cautious spending of every dollar, we hope our decision, which may be a disappointment to some, will spur the cooperation and community-minded spirit of everyone to create the system we really need, to benefit everyone in our region for years to come.”

Phorid fly...

Continued from Page 1A

Environmental Protection Agency no longer allowed the renewal of the diazinon label for mushrooms.

Early on, he determined that these insects, which devastate crops and annoy homeowners, are born and feed exclusively on mycelium in the mushroom houses. Mycelia are the fine, white filaments that form networks on the mushroom-growing beds and are analogous to the roots of the mushrooms themselves.

It is there that they spend several weeks progressing from eggs to larvae, growing and feeding and harming the coming crop. When they become adult flies, they exit the mushroom-growing rooms, seeking light and to mate.

It is during this departure from their birthplace into the outside that their swarms are often blown to neighborhoods and, because they like moisture and high places, often find their way into people’s bathrooms and other areas of the homes.

At this point, Wolfin addressed the concerns of homeowners about the dangers of phorid flies. He said he wants people to know that at least three myths have been proven to be false: Phorids don’t eat or grow any place except mycelium, they don’t sting, and they don’t spread disease. They are, however, a big concern for homeowners when they invade a house or neighborhood. It was with the comings and goings of the phorids to and from the mushroom houses that led Wolfin to develop his fly-killing screen.

He constructed lighted electrostatic screens on which he applied the allowed insecticide EcoVia.

In the case of the SherRockee Farm in Upper Oxford, where he conducted much of his research, each mushroom house has one upper level vent into which he placed the screens. Simultaneously, he trained some of the harvesting staff to monitor the screens and apply the EcoVia on a regular basis.

During the first try, the phorids did not seem to be

reduced after intervals of several days of application. However, when the insecticide was applied every day, there was a substantial diminution to the point where the farm became almost free of the flies.

Hector Martinez, who is in charge of monitoring the screens at Sher-Rockee Farm, said, “They don’t come back.”

Wolfin said the success of the program has prompted several other mushroom farms, notably Phillips and Brownstone, to begin trying it soon.

One “negative” about the screens, he said, is that each mushroom farm is different: the architecture, the protocols, and the layouts. So, whereas Sher-Rockee has one vent per house at the upper level, other farms may have houses with several vents per house at different levels. In effect, there is no unified method for installation.

Secretary Redding, in his overview of the topic, said that while the elimination of the flies in the mushroom houses is important, there is also the responsibility of the Department of Agriculture

tion and years of service to the Borough.

Council also accepted the resignation of the tax collector, Joy Davis. Davis has also served the Borough for many years. Council will be looking for a new tax collector to fill the remaining term which ends this year.

If anyone is interested in either of these positions they should contact interim borough manager Arlene Harrison at the borough hall

to address the homeowners who are invaded by the flies.

This sentiment was seconded by Williams, who said some of his constituents are desperate to rid their homes of phorids. “They tell me ‘They’re in my baby’s eyes and in our food,’” he said.

Williams added to all who were tuned into the presentation that he is eager to hear from people with the problem so he can advocate for them at the state level for financial support to keep fighting the scourge.

Lawrence said he can attest to the problem of phorids in southern Chester County because he was personally affected by them in his office.

When Wolfin was asked about research into the problems with flies in residential dwellings, he said there has not been home or neighborhood research. However, he added, if the flies are eliminated from the mushroom houses, where they hatch, eat and then die in the screen on the way out to mate, then the numbers will likewise go down in homes.

public safety team moves to renovated space in the International Cultural Center

Lincoln University’s public safety team has moved to a new, renovated 5,200-square-foot space on the campus.

The Department of Public Safety’s 20 uniformed officers and eight security officers moved to the first-floor suite in the International Cultural Center on Dec. 10, 2020.

The suite provides the department with individual work areas for shift supervisors and a larger duty room for meetings and training. Prior to the temporary

space that the department had been in for 5 years, Public Safety was housed in Azikiwe-Nkrumah Hall, which is under renovation and will house the Division of Institutional Advancement when complete later this year.

The move aligns with the vision in the 2020 Campus Master Plan and is part of the university’s commitment to investing in infrastructure to provide a world-class education and learning environment.

Lincoln University’s

department of Public Safety led by Chief Marc R. Partee is customerfocused, student-centered organization tasked with the primary responsibility for safety on the main campus. The university’s Philadelphia location is patrolled by trained security officers who are employed by an outside agency who work in collaboration with building officials, Lincoln University’s Department of Public Safety, and the Philadelphia Police Department.

The International Cultural Center, commonly called the ICC, opened in fall 2009 and is home to the president’s office, human resources, special events, the switchboard operator and Board of Trustees offices. The $26.1 million 60,000-square-foot facility includes a state-of-the-art 1,040-seat auditorium for the performing arts.

‘I’m really blessed to do this’

Quarterback Tom Brady feels pretty good this week after winning the Super Bowl, but in this corner of the world it was Philadelphia Eagles’ QB Jalen Hurts who scored a touchdown with a wonderful act of generosity to help a 7-year-old boy in Nottingham who is battling cancer.

A video of Hurts visiting with Erick and his family went viral after the quarterback reached out to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a pediatric cancer charity dedicated to funding research that will lead to cures for childhood cancers.

In the Youtube video, Liz Scott, the co-executive director at the foundation, explained that they were able to connect Hurts with a family in Nottingham.

Hurts, who just completed his rookie season with the Eagles, went to visit Erick and his family to spend time with the young boy and give them a special gift. During the visit, Erick presented Hurts with a special drawing. Hurts signed a jersey and a football. The quarterback played with the boy and his four younger siblings. They even threw the football around in the yard.

Then came the game-winning play as Hurts presented Erick’s mother, Amanda, with a check for $30,000 for the family to use toward a new home.

“I’m really blessed to do this,” Hurts said in the clip. “A moment like this for me, just going in there and meeting everybody, it was fun. I think what amazes me most is how the kids don’t even realize maybe what they’re dealing with, the circumstances they’re in. They’re just happy to be living.”

As they played catch, the football player told the boy how strong and courageous he was in this fight against cancer. Hurts said that his teammates would like to meet him.

The quarterback also talked about how he always wanted to work with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, which is committed to supporting families with children who are battling cancer. The origins of the pediatric cancer charity can be traced to when Liz and Jay Scott’s daughter, Alex, held her first childhood cancer fundraiser by setting up a lemonade stand in the front yard of their Connecticut home. Alex was just four years old at the time. She was battling neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer, but continued to hold fundraisers to help others. By the time she passed away in 2004, Alex had raised over $1 million. She also inspired a legacy of hope that one day there will be cures for childhood cancers. The foundation works toward that goal.

Hurts said that he will always remember the family’s reaction to the gift and the time he spent playing with Erick and his siblings.

“He gave me a nice picture. I really appreciate that. I want to hang that up in my locker as soon as I get back. I’m happy. They’re happy. I’m sending them nothing but blessings moving forward. Today was a great day.”

Letter to the Editor

A letter of thanks to New Garden Township for library support

Letter to the Editor:

On behalf of the Kennett Library and Resource Center Board of Trustees, sincere thanks are extended to the New Garden Township Board of Supervisors for their commitment toward the building of our community’s new library.

A contribution of $500,000 toward that construction effort, to be made in installments over five years, was recently approved through a unanimous vote of the township’s Board of Supervisors. That

support is very much appreciated, and builds upon the ongoing support of township residents who, in 2017, approved a tax referendum dedicated to the operational costs of the library.

On the evening that the Board of Supervisors made their decision regarding a contribution for the construction project, a number of township residents spoke up in support of the library, and the request regarding the new building, and their participation in this effort is also very much appreciated.

joined with other municipalities in our library’s service area to make a commitment toward the construction of a new library that will be ADAcompliant, state-of-the-art in meeting information and resource demands of the 21st century, and that will provide a safe and welcoming community center for all of us, and for generations to come.

The excellent coverage of this project by the Chester County Press is also appreciated. Make no mistake about it. This is a big deal

for our community, with groundbreaking expected this summer, and the opening of the new Kennett Library and Resource Center expected at the conclusion of 2022. And don’t forget, the library is open, with COVID protocols in place, and our outstanding library staff is ready to meet your library needs.

Respectfully submitted and with thanks.

By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer

The story of how Chester County artist and musician Nicole Zell started her Conjure Jewelry line last year began not by what was happening, but by what was not happening.

For the past decade, Zell has made her mark and most of her living as a solo singer-songwriter and a member of the alternative rock band American Wolves (now THRILLCHASER).

As the calendar turned to 2020, she was living a ten-minute train ride from downtown Philadelphia, and her career in music was dotted with recording sessions, songwriting, video production and live performances with the band.

When playing solo, Zell embraced a seemingly never-ending tour of clubs, coffee houses, wineries and restaurants – a “Have Stage, Will Travel” troubadour with heartfelt lyrics and a voice like an angel. Then the pandemic came in March, and the world of live performing went on immediate shut down, and the gigs that had fortified Zell suddenly dried up.

“Last year changed so much for so many people, and for me that meant no live shows,” said Zell, 26, who grew up in rural Honey Brook. “I was quarantined inside an apartment that was so close to the music scene and art and social events, and suddenly everything was quiet. I thought, ‘Why am I stuck here when I can be stuck in nature?’ I realized that I was missing life in the country. As the pandemic continued, I felt the need to move away from the modern rat race.”

New home, new business

Last spring, Zell began looking for a home in the Chester County countryside -- preferably a small home on a working farm. The process took about nine months, but last December, she moved to a farm on the outskirts of Coatesville. During that time of isolation, another part of her life made the pivot as well -- a new business called Conjure Jewelry that she started last March.

Zell’s interest in turning stones into necklaces and earrings seemed to spring out of the ground beneath her childhood, one inspired by the fact that her father was, in her words, a “rock hound.”

“He loved hiking and mountains and rocks and geology,” she said. “He’s the kind of guy who,

In the Spotlight

Conjure Jewelry: Sustainable, ethical and magical

if you ask him about any random rock on the ground, he’s able to identify it. Everywhere in our basement, there were boxes and boxes of gems and crystals, and he would often walk up to farmers and large property owners and ask if he could look through the fields to find arrowheads.

“For years I would make fun of him, and years later, I have turned into the same rock weirdo,” she said. As the pandemic continued to take away the stages and venues and performances that had become so defining for her, Zell began to find herself transitioning in a more personal way. In short, she went “minimal” and “sustainable,” in an effort to live a simpler lifestyle. She tore through her closet and removed environmentally-unfriendly “fast fashion” clothing. She then altered the means by which she was obtaining her food and her household supplies, and soon, Zell began to look at how she was beginning to operate Conjure Jewelry.

Searching for -and finding -a sustainable supplier

She needed stones, but they had to be the right kind of stones.

“I realized that if I was only going to buy materials that are ethically made and sourced, then I needed to do the same for my own business,” Zell said. “I began to do a lot of research about the reality behind how and where these beautiful treasures are actually obtained, which is usually through unethical and unfriendly methods.

“Unfortunately, much of the mining industry is widely unregulated, so I began to put it out to the universe to find me an environmentally-responsible supplier and drop it in my lap.”

Zell posted a call for the right kind of supplier on the social media page for the rock and gemstone industry. Soon after, she

received a response from Rodrigo Delgado Haro of Crystals from Peru, an ethical, sustainable mining company based in the majestic Andes Mountains of Peru.

Together with his business partner Paco Solano Santiago, Haro has been part of local community cultivation projects such as instituting rural credit programs, reforestation efforts, and the establishment of potable water systems.

With the assistance of native llamas, the company’s miners – who themselves live and work in the rugged terrain of the South American country -- gather specimens that are located in fields, in stone walls and in area mines, with very little impact to the environment. In exchange for their all-year work, the miners receive a fair profit due to their province abiding by a low tax system in order to promote employment and benefit the community.

“Rodrigo and I began to build an online rapport over the next several months, and as I began to learn more about their story, our partnership grew from there,” Zell said. “We have Facetime shopping appointments, and weeks later, these incredible stones and crystals arrive at my studio, untouched.”

Working from her home workshop, Zell takes the shipments she orders from Crystals from Peru and using delicate drill tools, she creates pendulums, necklaces and earrings made of clear quartz, smoky quartz, citrine, and amethyst. In an effort to reuse and reduce waste, the hardware used in the making of the jewelry is either vintage or repurposed, and its eco-friendly packaging consists of jewelry card holders which are hand-created from recycled cardboard, package cushioning alternatives such as corrugated cardboard and recyclable and biodegradable EcoEnclose mailers.

Through Etsy, Zell has already made close to 100 online sales of

her jewelry, and hopes to expand her marketing reach post-pandemic with appearances at small- and large-scale artisan festivals, as well as shops throughout Philadelphia and Chester County.

‘A vessel’

If there is a mission attached to the work she is doing with Conjure Jewelry, Zell said that it can be found in the three words that make up the company’s slogan: Sustainable. Ethical, Magical.

“It is important for me to know that whoever purchases my jewelry understands where the stones they now wear

come from, and that their purchase has made a positive impact on the environment and not a negative one,” she said.

“By purchasing this jewelry, I also want them to know that they are supporting the company’s mission, which then supports the people of Peru, and allows them to build their infrastructure and other sustainable goals they have.

“These stones I am blessed to be able to make into jewelry have been here so much longer than we have, and I look at my purpose as simply to be a vessel for them. We are all conduits to everything in nature, and we’re here just to be good stewards.”

RELLA MURR BATES

Rella Murr Bates passed away peacefully in her sleep on Jan. 26 at the age of 94. Rella was born a Tennessee farm girl with brothers David and Curtis, and sisters Connie and Alene. An ethic of hard work, persistence and grit were instilled in her from these early years of helping out her parents, David and Beulah, on the farm.

Recruited out of high school, she began her employment at the now historic, Oak Ridge Power Plant where, unbeknownst to her, she was an integral part of the Manhattan Project to help build “the bomb.”

During her time there, a young Alan Bates had arrived to also work on The Project in a different capacity, working at Union Carbide, while also completing his masters degree from MIT. That’s where destiny stepped in, when they met and began dating.

On one fateful day in the winter, a few months after they began to date, Rella had a bad fall on the ice on the way to see a local football game and had a bad cut on her head. Rushed to the emergency room, and after getting stitches, Alan then realized that he wanted to take care of her for the rest of her life. He proposed then and there.

Married in 1951, their first child, Stephanie, came along two years later, followed by their son, Douglas.

Rella and Alan shared 69 years of wedded bliss.

After Alan was hired at Atlas Chemical, they moved to Wilmington, Del., which is where they raised their family. They later moved to Hockessin, Del. and, finally to Jenner’s Pond Retirement Community in West Grove in 1999.

Rella had an avid interest in gardening, growing not only decorative plants, but an extensive vegetable garden, cooking (no one could compare with Rella’s down-home, from-the-heart cooking), and sewing (making a lot of her and her daughter’s clothes), and took great pride in decorating the house for the holidays, and gatherings with family and friends. Christmas was her favorite time of the year for that. Her other passions were dance, bowling, yoga, and tai chi. She and Alan also loved ballroom dancing.

When they moved to Jenners Pond, she began doing volunteer work at Jennersville Hospital, and helped create, with her husband, a beautiful nature walking trail there for all to enjoy, which is her legacy to this day.

One of her greatest joys was seeing and hearing the gifts of music that her two children gave her, as they both are professional entertainers.

Besides her two children being her pride and joy, she was very close to and loved spending time with her grandchildren, Cambia and Cody, and her little great-granddaughter, who bears her name, little Rella.

All these elements of a beautiful life, well and fully lived, don’t begin to paint the picture of the essence of who Rella was. She lit up the lives of all who knew her with her zest for life, her beautiful smile and infectious laugh, her all-embracing spirit, and most of all, her very large heart. Heaven is now a far richer place with her there.

Due to Covid-19 concerns, for now, there will be no remembrance services. An announcement will be shared should that change.

If you wish to make a gift in her name, the family is very grateful to Willow Tree Hospice for their care of Rella. Also, Salvation Army is one of her favorite charities, as is the Macular Degeneration Society.

Stu was born in Bath, ME, raised in Wiscasset, ME, and graduated from Wiscasset High School. He enlisted in the Coast Guard after a year at Washington State Teachers College. He always said the only good thing that came from his time in college was meeting the love of his life, Jeannette.

Stu loved traveling and was always looking forward to their next big vacation. As a member of the New Castle Irish Society, he enjoyed set and ceili dancing, going as far as Ireland for dancing. He also loved eating out and trying new restaurants. Following in his father’s footsteps, he became a 33rd degree Mason.

In his retirement, he developed a love of gardening, especially growing potatoes. He was an avid collector, and enjoyed researching and seeking out rare coins, banks and pocket watches.

Stu is survived by his wife, Jeannette (Lepage), daughters Suellen Glover and Jennifer Miller (David Aksim), and three grandchildren, Brandon Glover, Ella Glover, and Zoe Aksim. He is also survived by a brother and five sisters, Ralph Gross II, Helen Amazene, Rita Melville, Jean West, Jane Albert and Donna Lester.

PAUL FRANCIS LYON

Paul (Bud) Lyon, 67, of Kirkwood, passed away on Feb. 3 after a lengthy battle with renal cancer. He was born in Philadelphia on June 3, 1953 to the late Paul J. and Florence Lyon. Throughout his life, he always strived to be a friend to everyone and positively touched the lives of all who met him. With his time and talent, he selflessly served friends, family, and complete strangers willfully and often. He is especially remembered by all who met him for his generosity, strong handshake, sparkling eyes, big smile, and loud mouth. All who knew him, even tangentially, have at least a few good memories and Bud stories.

He attended Monsignor Bonner High School. While there he met the love of his life, Kathleen, when they were 14 at the Bonner Christmas Dance. They were married in 1972, raised three beautiful children, and recently celebrated their 48th wedding anniversary in October 2020. Bud was employed for 36 years by Philadelphia Electric, now Exelon Corporation, as a lead maintenance technician/pipe fitter. He was a jack-of-all-trades and an extremely hard worker with a strong work ethic, a trait that he instilled in his children. He retired in 2008, but continued to assist during Exelon’s outages, while enjoying a much-deserved retirement with Kathleen and his family to its absolute fullest.

Bud enjoyed all manner of sports. In his younger years he could be found surfing, playing softball, skiing, bowling, and golfing. While he continued to especially enjoy golf throughout his life, he eventually found a passion for boating and fishing. He was extremely proud to be a member (and former president) of the Strathmere Fishing and Environmental Club (SFEC) in New Jersey.

While Bud had many hobbies and interests, he especially loved his family and often reveled in their interests as well. He was always heavily involved in their activities by wearing many hats throughout their lives including coach, volunteer, handyman, cook, cheerleader, therapist, and philosopher.

He is survived by his wife, Kath and their three children: Tia Hashinger (Shaun) of Quarryville, Pa.; Dr. Kari Kelly (Chris) of Port St. Lucie, Fla; and P. Jason Lyon of Pequea, Pa. Also surviving are four grandchildren: Tianna, Kiera, Paige and Charlotte. He is also survived by his brother, Peter Lyon (Kate) of Washington, and two sisters, Sister Denise Lyon, IHM of Baltimore, Md.; and Margie Lyon (John) of Havertown, Pa. Along with Janie Barton and Claudia Potter whom he loved as a daughter and granddaughter. He will also be forever remembered by his numerous nieces, nephews, extended family, and dear friends.

Due to current COVID restrictions, a private family service will be held within the next week. However, we all know that is not nearly enough to celebrate the life of a man with Bud’s stature; so we are planning on celebrating his life the way he deserves, with his extended family and friends, at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to Strathmere Fishing and Environmental Club (SFEC) by mail to PO Box 77 Strathmere, N.J. 08248 or visit strathmerefishing.org or The American Cancer Society. Arrangements are being handled by the Edward L. Collins, Jr. Funeral Home, Inc. (www.elcollinsfuneralhome.com).

BISHOP JOHN HAMILTON

Bishop John Hamilton went home to be with the Lord on Jan. 31. He passed away at his home in Oxford with his loving wife Helen Hamilton by his side. He was 95. Bishop Hamilton was born Oct. 11, 1925 in Clifton, N.C., the son of Zollie Hamilton and had one sibling.

At the age of 16, he moved to Oxford from West Jefferson, N.C. and worked on Mrs. Garrett’s farm on Chrome Road until 1953. He later held various positions in the mushroom business and was promoted to a truck driver.

Bishop Hamilton was ordained as a minister and became an Elder of Reed’s AMUP Methodist Church in Northeast, Md. He also served as a deacon and as an associate pastor in a church in Philadelphia for two years, but returned to Oxford to continue his ministry where he started Faith Tabernacle Church in 1982.

In 1979, he preached his trial sermon at the Allen AME Church in Oxford that focused on St. John 14: 1-6.

On Feb. 5, 1982, he completed his adult basic education classes at Avon Grove School District and was listed as one of the top students in the class.

He was the pastor and founder of Faith Tabernacle Church in Oxford. The Church originally started in his home with Wednesday night Bible study, and later the original members decided to search for a building because the Lord was moving mightily in expanding the congregation. He came in contact with Mr. David, a person that was part of the Oxford Grange Hall, and he allowed him to rent the hall on Sundays for services.

Soon the building was for sale. Bishop talked to the committee to purchase the building and God moved and it has been and will continue to be a blessing to all who
