Children remember ‘knowledgeable’ father
Inside This Week

Glendale Star Executive Editor
Brian Peters loved to learn. If his children, wife or friends needed anything, he could figure out how to do it. “If he wanted to do something, he could learn by trial and error,” said his daughter, Jessica. “He was a hands-on learner. We know him as someone who literally knew how to do everything. “He didn’t go to college. He didn’t get the opportunity to pursue a traditional extended education.”

The Peters family is mourning the death of 56-year-old Brian, who lived in Peoria. He and his passenger, 47-year-old Jason Chapman of Phoenix, died in April during a one-vehicle crash in Moab, Utah. According to a press release, Brian and Chapman completed “Devil’s Crack” and exited their vehicle to assist others with the obstacle. They returned to the Jeep, and witnesses said they heard a loud “pop” before the vehicle rolled backward toward a cliff and tumbled over the edge, according SEE PETERS PAGE 3

WESTMARC hosts annual economic summit
Endangered jaguar cubs born at West Valley zoo
BY LAUREN SERRATO Glendale Star Staff Writer
Each year, the Western Maricopa Coalition hosts the Economic Development Summit. Amid the coronavirus, it was only fitting that this year’s summit was titled “2021: A Year of Transition. What’s on the Horizon for the West Valley?” The expert speakers shed light on how to manage one’s workforce in this new environment and how to adapt to changes in various West Valley industries. Peoria Mayor Cathy Carlat kicked off the event with a virtual welcome and announced Peoria was voted the No. 1 city in Arizona to live, work and play. “We recognize that the long-term viability of our city is dependent upon our

commitment to economic development and helping our community, as well as our region, realize the fullest potential,” Carlat said. In what could have been a four-hour conference about how businesses and industries have struggled during the pandemic, the focus remained on the West Valley’s new way of doing business and managing work teams. Arizona Coyotes President and CEO Xavier Gutierrez was the opening speaker. Gutierrez explained how his team had to adapt to the pandemic and how Glendale rallied behind him. One of the biggest challenges, Gutierrez admitted, was deciding how to keep the fanbase happy and safe during COVID-19.

“Our No. 1 goal in bringing fans back was to create an experience in which they felt safe, they felt they could be there and enjoy it and enjoy it with their families, enjoy it with their children, with their loved ones. And I think that was something that we felt very, very strongly about, that we did accomplish that. We were able to open up as soon as the season commenced for the 2020-21 season which was in January, and it was a sprint,” he said. Gutierrez acknowledged the challenges his organization, as well as the entire West Valley, have faced in the last year but said he’s confident for the future of both. “My family, my wife, my son, this is where we live.

to ABC 4 in Salt Lake City. “We didn’t get any information from the police,” said Jessica’s brother, Brian Jr., of Goodyear. “He was with a big off-roading group out there. The police didn’t know a ton about what happened.” Jessica said her father rebuilt a mid1960s Jeep and enjoyed off-roading. Born in Dearborn, Michigan, to a Catholic family, Brian worked as an electrician for 10 years in the Navy, where he was exposed to a variety of tasks. Brian Jr. said his dad was a “great guy” who loved his grandchildren. “He was the type of person who would be there for you — no questions asked,” Brian Jr. said. “He might give you a hard time, bust your chops.” For example, when Brian Jr.’s wife was moving back from San Diego, where she was stationed in the Army, his father volunteered to drive there and transport her property to Arizona. “He wanted to do things for people and help them,” Brian Jr. said. “At the funeral, everybody’s stories were about him mentoring people and coaching people. He had this way about him that everyone gravitated to.” The mother of two daughters, Jessica said her dad was not only a father to her, but he stepped into the role for her 13-year-old daughter. “She doesn’t have a dad,” Jessica said. “He left when she was 6 months

old. My dad did all those things. She never missed a father-daughter dance because of my dad. He stepped up and was there for her. “That was his granddaughter. He spoiled her, and we would get in fights about how he needed to not spoil her as much. He said, ‘I’m her grandpa. I can do what I want.’” Brian Jr. recalled his mom, Laura, telling him that his dad wasn’t about grand gestures.
“Here’s a little example: His last text to my mom before he died was about my son,” he said. He wanted to make sure the pool was warm enough for his grandson. “I think it’s important to point out — I do think it’s very important — there are a lot of little things you take for granted,” he said. “My sister, my mom, our kids and I were always priorities for him.” So was learning. “To drive the point home, I always said he could read a book on how to build a nuclear bomb and do it,” Brian Jr. said. “His dad was somewhat handy and did craft things. He just cultivated it over time.”

Deadly street racing outruns efforts to combat it BY ZOHA TUNIO Cronkite News
Ramon Angel Carrasco and his girlfriend were driving home from a Scottsdale bakery in a white BMW in August 2019 when Robert J. Foster pulled up next to them in a light blue Lamborghini. According to a witness account provided to police, Carrasco and Foster revved their engines at a red light on Hayden Road before heading north, and within seconds they were traveling more than 100 mph. Meanwhile, Cynthia Ann Fisher was driving south on the same stretch of Hayden. The 68-year-old hairdresser had just left the grocery store and was planning to make breakfast the next morning for a new roommate, said Leah Stenzel, her friend and boss. Fisher was turning left onto Williams Drive when Carrasco’s BMW struck the passenger side of her black Camry, propelling her car 160 feet from the impact, according to police records. Fisher, who
was a minute from her home, was declared dead at the scene. Carrasco and his girlfriend, Jaymi Lynn Chagolla, suffered minor injuries. Carrasco told police he had nothing to do with the Lamborghini and refused to speak further without an attorney present, but Chagolla confirmed what multiple witnesses who called police had reported. “Yes, we did a pull against a Lamborghini,” she said when police asked whether the cars were racing. For days, Stenzel didn’t know her friend had been killed. After Fisher missed three consecutive shifts at the salon and medspa, Stenzel went to her house and learned the news from Fisher’s neighbors. She left behind two sons and a granddaughter. Carrasco, now 24, and Foster, now 61, face murder and other felony charges in the crash, but despite witness statements and Chagolla’s confirmation to police, neither driver faces charges for street
racing. Chagolla was not charged with any crime. Fisher is among at least five people in the Phoenix area killed in street racing accidents since 2019, according to analysis of law enforcement documents from Valley agencies. In February 2020, Felix Cardoza, 18, died when he struck a concrete retaining wall on State Route 51. In November 2020, Nicholas Meath, 21, raced against Cameron Groom, now 28, before his car collided with a pillar at a resort in Scottsdale. Meath died at the scene. And in January 2021, Alejandro Bautista, 20, was racing another vehicle in Phoenix before he hit a pedestrian, Cesar Santos, 31, who died from the impact. Earlier this month, Andrew David Friedlander, 34, was charged with manslaughter after a suspected street racing incident which ended when his vehicle crashed into a Jeep driven by Charissa Coleman, 28, who was killed. Despite the danger, some drivers say illegal street racing is a part of their lives they’re not willing to give up. Eric Rodriguez’s eyes light up when he talks about his car and how street racing is a release like no other. “For some people, it really is an adrenaline rush,” the Phoenix resident said. “And that’s what gets people addicted. That’s what got me addicted.” City and state officials have responded by forming special task forces and increasing penalties for street racing, including higher fines and lengthier vehicle impounds. However, a review of incident reports and court records shows law enforcement agencies in Maricopa and Pima counties handle this deadly crime differently, which may undercut their efforts to combat it.
A statewide priority
Law enforcement officials say street racing is not a new phenomenon, but things changed in 2019. Phoenix police determined the problem had “size and organization,” said Sgt. Joseph Mills, who leads the department’s street racing task force. Police in West Phoenix received complaints about racing, particularly near 39th Avenue and Indian School Road.
Arizona state Sen. Paul Boyer introduced Senate Bill 1533, which, if enacted, would impose higher fines and penalties for street racers and a seven-day impoundment of vehicles. “If it’s your vehicle and you’re committing this dangerous criminal act, then I do think there has to be consequences,” the Glendale Republican said. (Photo courtesy of Paul Boyer)
Investigation led police to discover gatherings where hundreds of cars would take over private parking lots, warehouses and intersections, Mills said. Phoenix police set up its task force in November 2019 and sought additional funding from the state. That’s when the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety realized the problem was statewide. Over the past year, Director Alberto Gutier said his office has given enforcement agencies hundreds of thousands of dollars to disrupt street racing activity and enforce state laws. Highway safety office documents show Phoenix police received grants for more than $200,000 to combat street racing from January 2020 to January 2021. This year, Scottsdale police got $110,000, and Tucson police received $30,000, according to officials and statements from each agency. The departments used most of that money to pay for officer overtime associated with the efforts. In Phoenix alone, police last year received more than 1,000,911 calls related to street racing and made more than 160 arrests, according to police data. Although Mills said street racing in Phoenix has been rising for several years, SEE RACING PAGE 7

RACING FROM PAGE 6
police in Scottsdale and Tucson said the COVID-19 pandemic might have helped racing incidents proliferate, attributing the rise to boredom and less traffic. In Tucson, police received significantly more public complaints in 2020 about street racing than in any previous year, Lt. Robert Garza said.
Different approaches to deterrence
Combating the problem is complicated by inconsistent enforcement across the Valley, and penalties may not necessarily deter racers. State law defines street racing as “a race, speed competition or contest, drag race or acceleration contest, test of physical endurance or exhibition of speed or acceleration or for the purpose of making a speed record on a street or highway.” It’s a misdemeanor, with fines beginning at $250 and sentences of up to six months in jail for the first offense and rising to $500 — and more jail time — for subsequent offenses. If a second offense comes within two years of the first, the charge is a Class 6 felony. The more common charge, criminal speed, is a lesser misdemeanor and can lead to a sentence of up to 30 days in jail. Scottsdale police Lt. Chris DiPiazza said officers use their discretion and often ticket racers for speeding because the racing statute can be hard to prove. “Excessive speed is pretty simple,” he said. “If you have them on radar visual that they’re doing 100 miles an hour, it’s a lot easier to prove that case. It takes less resources.” In the crash that killed Foster, Carrasco and Foster were charged with multiple felonies, including second-degree murder and aggravated assault with a dangerous instrument. Foster is also charged with leaving the scene of a fatal accident. But neither was cited for violating the street racing statute. Melvin McDonald, Foster’s attorney, said misdemeanors such as street racing usually aren’t a factor when felony charges are involved. Daniel South, chief criminal deputy at the Pima County Attorney’s Office, said it’s difficult to determine how many lives have been lost to street racing when law enforcement agencies don’t recommend misdemeanor charges as part of fatal collision prosecutions.

Cynthia Fisher, 68, a mother and grandmother, died Aug. 3, 2019, when her black Camry was struck by a white BMW.

ment takes a different approach, leaning on language in the state statute that allows law enforcement to cite not just drivers but passengers, too. In January, Pima County sheriff’s deputies spotted a large gathering on Swan and Los Reales roads, a known location for street racing in Tucson. Officers in a plane monitored activity until deputies could arrive. Swan Road was blocked, cars were stopped and 34 arrests for street racing were made. Both drivers and passengers were cited. Some cities are looking at strengthening their ordinances and lengthening the amount of time they impound vehicles for those charged with street racing. City attorneys are reviewing Tucson’s ordinance to specify how long law enforcement can impound vehicles. In March, Phoenix approved an ordinance that imposes a $600 fine and allows police to impound or immobilize for 30 days any vehicle found in violation of the street racing or reckless driving statutes. “This ordinance shows street safety is a top concern of this council, and we will
continue to take steps to keeping our residents safe,” said Betty Guardado, who represents District 5 on the city council. Police are also encouraging drivers to race legally at tracks like Tucson Dragway, which closed to the general public because of the pandemic but has reopened in the past few months as restrictions have begun to ease. “We’re trying to partner with (the dragway), not necessarily to promote the business by any means but just to let people know that there are legal ways and legal avenues that you can go so that doesn’t put the community at risk,” Garza said. Karlie Tuttle, 16, grew up in the racing scene in the Phoenix area and competes as part of her family’s racing organization, 6Sixty Race Family. In March, she beat her friend Christian Paulauskis in her second race at the legal raceway Tucson Dragway. “Some (racers) just don’t come to the track because they feel like it’s fake,” she said. “It’s still the same type of racing, but it’s in a better environment.” Sgt. Donald Hess of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office is among those

who believe tougher penalties, such as extended vehicle impounds, would help bring the numbers down. “You take their pride and possession, the vehicle that they’re doing this with, and impound it,” Hess said. “That’s a start, you know. You put them out of business while you got their car impounded.” Garza agreed that losing their car for a long period of time could deter racers. Many “don’t necessarily care about getting a citation, even a criminal citation, for that matter,” he said, but losing their car is another matter. At the state level, state Sen. Paul Boyer, R-Glendale, proposed a bill this year to increase penalties for street racing. Senate Bill 1533, which would impose higher fines and a statewide seven-day impoundment for vehicles, is awaiting passage in the House. “If it’s your vehicle and you’re committing this dangerous criminal act, then I do think there has to be consequences,” Boyer said. Gutier, with the highway safety office, said he hopes Boyer’s bill becomes law. “We need to do something that’s more drastic,” he said, “so people understand the dangers of street racing.” After failing to reach a plea deal, Carrasco is awaiting trial. Police located Foster 12 days after the accident, near his home. He told police he was in the area of the accident that night but said he had turned off Hayden Road before the collision. Each driver has pleaded not guilty, according to court records. Stenzel, Fisher’s friend and employer, said she encountered two cars racing earlier this year, weaving in and out of traffic at speeds significantly higher than the limit, while her 18-year-old daughter sat in the passenger seat of her car. “It gave me the greatest anxiety, and I was so pissed because, you know, you remember how Cindi died and it’s just so senseless,” Stenzel said, referring to Fisher by her nickname. “I just don’t understand it.” Aydalí Campa, Sarah Suwalsky and Kenneth Quayle contributed to this story.

To be embedded, not just for you, as elected officials or the nonprofit community, but to young people and to the business community.” The rest of the conference was separated into three panels, each with a focus on ways to benefit the West Valley during the pandemic. The panel topics included returning to work post-pandemic, trends in employment, and growing West Valley industries and the area’s opportunities. Various speakers focused on the cities they represented, including Goodyear City Manager Julie Karins, who honed in on its growth. “We’ve learned a lot about ourselves, and there’s a lot of things that we can take into the future. Goodyear continues to grow. We did not slow down during the pandemic, so we had to manage this on top of the incredible growth that we already have going on
in our community,” Karins said, adding that, now more than ever, “it’s a great time to be in Goodyear.” In each panel, the consensus was clear that the West Valley is destined for continued growth, making it an exciting time for businesses and residents. Bobbie Mastracci, the designated broker and principal with Phoenix West Commercial LLC, stuck to the hockey theme in honor of Gutierrez, stating, “The West Valley is where the puck is going.” For the future, Chris Camacho, president and CEO of the Greater Phoenix Economic Council, said the West Valley can expect more developments as the population continues to grow and industries continue to develop strategies to be successful during the pandemic. “What’s been announced in the last few months, or even in the last six months, unparalleled level of capital investment,” Camacho said. “What’s coming in the next 12 months is going to be unlike anything we’ve ever seen, and I think the history of our state.” Info: westmarc.com

Glendale airport awarded $1.4 million for repairs BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration awarded Glendale Municipal Airport $1.4 million to rehabilitate 3,500 feet of the existing southern portion of taxiway A pavement to extend its useful life and enhance safety by minimizing foreign object debris. In total, the department gave $898.9 million in infrastructure and safety projects through the FY 2021 Airport Improvement Program. This includes $113.50 million in American Rescue Plan Act funding to award all grants at a 100% federal share. “Investing in our nation’s infrastructure is how our country helped spark an aviation industry that now supports millions of jobs,” said U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg. “These Airport Improvement Program grants will help modernize America’s airports and ensure that our air transportation system remains the safest and most efficient in the world.” Grant projects funded through the Airport Improvement Program promote safety, efficiency, environmental stewardship, infrastructure and security at the nation’s airports. The announcement includes 488 grants to 447 airports in 49 states and American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands and Puerto Rico. “These grants represent the legacy and vital role of airport infrastructure grant programs in helping the air transportation system operate safely,” said FAA Administrator Steve Dickson. “Investing in our nation’s infrastructure through AIP grants is a cornerstone of our commitment to safety.” Examples of airports receiving grants for projects in this round include: • Van Nuys, California, more than $18.9 million: to resurface and seal the pavement for the airport’s primary runway 16R/34L. This project will extend the useful life of the runway pavement. Van Nuys airport is one of the busiest general aviation airports in the United States in
terms of aircraft operations. Work is scheduled to begin in February 2022 and be completed in November 2022. • Bradley International, Windsor Locks, Connecticut, almost $11.3 million: for reconstructing the taxiway S and to bring the connector taxiways to current federal design standards. • Denver International, nearly $26.7 million: to rehabilitate the pavement and lighting systems on runway 16L/34R to enhance safe airfield operations during low-visibility conditions and to rehabilitate a taxiway. • Valdosta Regional, Georgia, nearly $5.7 million: to rehabilitate 8,000 feet of runway 17/35 maintaining the structural integrity of the pavement and minimize foreign object debris. Additionally, this project enhances safety by removing vegetation obstructions from the runway 35 approach and departure paths. • Scott AFB/MidAmerica, Belleville, Illinois, more than $12.6 million: for expanding the terminal building to accommodate existing passenger demand and meet security and American with Disabilities Act requirements. The airport has seen an increase in enplanements from 20,000 in 2015 to more than 150,000 in 2018. The security checkpoint is being relocated to the first floor of the terminal and expanded by an additional lane to meet Transportation Security Administration design requirements. • Frederick Municipal, Frederick, Maryland, more than $4.8 million: for extending runway 05/23 to meet the operational needs of the airport. Additionally, this project relocates the parallel taxiway to meet federal design standards for separation between runways and taxiways. The Airport Improvement Program receives approximately $3.2 billion in congressional funding each year. The FAA will award more than 1,500 grants this year.

Cardinals announce regular season schedule
BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF The Arizona Cardinals Football Club has announced its 2021 regular season schedule, presented by SeatGeek. The schedule includes three nationally televised, prime-time games during the regular season and another in the preseason. Each of those four games will be played at State Farm Stadium. The prime-time regular season games are a Thursday night home tilt versus Green Bay on Oct. 28, a Monday night visit from the Rams on Dec. 13, and a Saturday night matchup with the Colts that marks just the third alltime Christmas game for the Cardinals (1995 and 2010). Three prime-time home games is the most ever for the Cardinals in a regular season (also in 1995, 1999, 2015 and 2016). The 2021 regular season will be the league’s first since expanding to 17 games. The NFL had played a 16-game slate since 1978 and before that had a 14-game regular season from 1961-77. Other than traditional home and away games against the NFC West, the Cards take on the AFC South (Houston, Indianapolis, Jacksonville and Tennessee) and the NFC North (Chicago, Detroit, Green Bay and Minnesota). The 2021 season is the team’s 16th at State Farm Stadium, where the Cardinals have created one of the NFL’s best home-field advantages. Single-game tickets for Cardinals home games are now available by visiting azcardinals.com/gametix.
Regular season schedule Week 1 at Tennessee (Sept. 12): For the first time since 1997 at Cincinatti, the Cardinals will open the season on the road against an AFC team. New Cards cornerback Malcolm Butler faces the team with which he spent the last three seasons. It will be the 12th alltime meeting between the clubs (Arizona leads 7-4).
Week 2 versus Minnesota (Sept. 19): The Cards face the Vikings for the 10th time in 16 years, this time in the home opener, which is good, as the home team has won the last seven contests in the series. Cornerback Patrick Peterson returns to State Farm Stadium, where he starred for 10 years with the Cardinals.
Week 3 at Jacksonville (Sept. 26): Arizona plays in Jacksonville for the first time since earning a victory there in 2013. The Jags are led by new head coach Urban Meyer and rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who — like Kyler Murray in 2019 — was the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL Draft last month. Week 4 at LA Rams (Oct. 3): The Cards play their first divisional game when they travel to the site of this year’s Super Bowl, SoFi Stadium. Matthew Stafford — who faced the Cards eight times as the Lions quarterback and was 3-4-1 — takes on Arizona for the first time with his new squad. Week 5 versus San Francisco (Oct. 10): It’s back-to-back division games for the Cards, this time at home versus San Francisco, where they have an 8-7 series edge. San Francisco will be back as visitors after hosting three games at State Farm Stadium last season due to COVID-19 restrictions in California. Week 6 at Cleveland (Oct. 17): This game was added when the regular season expanded to 17 games. The Cards are looking for their fifth straight win over the Browns. The most recent came in a 2019 showdown of Oklahoma Heisman winners when Kyler Murray topped Baker Mayfield in Arizona. Week 7 versus Houston (Oct. 24): Arizona stars DeAndre Hopkins and J.J. Watt — who combined to earn
nine Pro Bowl selections in Houston — face their former team for the first time when the Texans come to Arizona. It’s just the fifth all-time meeting; the home team has won each previous (two per side).
Week 8 versus Green Bay (Oct. 28): The Packers come to town for a nationally televised Thursday night game. It’s Green Bay’s first visit to State Farm Stadium since the unforgettable Divisional Playoff game in 2016 that Arizona won on Larry Fitzgerald’s touchdown in overtime after an Aaron Rodgers Hail Mary. Week 9 at San Francisco (Nov. 7): It’s just the third NFC West matchup of the year for Arizona but the second against the 49ers. This time the Cards travel to Levi’s Stadium, where they have won five of the last six contests played there and are 5-2 overall. Week 10 versus Carolina (Nov. 14): The Cards and Panthers meet for their 16th regular season game ever and the seventh time in the last nine years, including postseason. The teams have split the last four meetings in Arizona. Week 11 at Seattle (Nov. 21): Arizona heads to Seattle with a 4-2 record in its last six visits to Lumen Field. The Cards have more wins there (eight) than any other NFL team since the venue opened in 2002. Since 2013, the Seahawks are 3-5 at home versus Arizona and 42-14 against the rest of the NFL. Week 12 bye: The Cards have had a later bye week just one time: 1991, when it fell in Week 14 (Dec. 1) Week 13 at Chicago (Dec. 5): The only original franchises remaining from the NFL’s founding in 1920 renew their rivalry when the Cards and Bears meet for the 92nd time. The Cards return to
Soldier Field — the NFL’s oldest venue — for the first time since earning a 48-23 win there in 2015.
Week 14 versus LA Rams (Dec. 13): Monday Night Football returns to State Farm Stadium when the Rams come to town for an NFC West showdown. It will be the Cards’ 28th all-time appearance on MNF. Their most recent was a year ago in Dallas, when they earned a 38-10 win over the Cowboys. Week 15 at Detroit (Dec. 19): The Cards head to Motown to face the Lions for the 16th time since 2002 realignment (Arizona’s most against any nondivisional foe in that span). They will see new Lions head coach Dan Campbell and familiar face quarterback Jared Goff, formerly of the Rams. Week 16 versus Indianapolis (Dec. 25): On a Christmas Saturday night at State Farm Stadium, the Cards host the Colts in a game that will air nationally on NFL Network. Arizona has won the last two versus Indy, including a 40-11 victory in the Colts’ last visit to Arizona in 2013. Week 17 at Dallas (Jan. 2): Kyler Murray returns to AT&T Stadium, where he has a perfect 7-0 record (NFL, college and high school). One of them was Arizona’s 38-10 win on MNF in 2020. A victory this season would be Arizona’s third straight road win over Dallas, its longest such streak since 1961-64. Week 18 versus Seattle (Jan. 9): The Cards close the regular season versus Seattle for the sixth time since 2008 and fourth time at home. Last year’s Seahawks game at State Farm Stadium was a thrilling 37-34 Cardinals win in overtime on Sunday Night Football that also came a week after playing at Dallas.

Dog adoptions teach a lesson about humanity BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Glendale Star Columnist
Early in my newspaper career, I worked at a New Jersey tabloid where the publisher was a man of few words, most of them insulting and frequently shouted at top volume. He was easy to make angry, and I did so one afternoon upon returning from the scene of a row house fire in Trenton. Most of a city block had gone up in flames, the fire spreading from home to home via a connected attic. Dozens of families were homeless, and firefighters had suffered serious smoke inhalation, but fortunately no one had been killed. Still, per the publisher, I had missed the most critical detail of all. “Any dogs killed?” he demanded. “People love dogs more than people.” That was how I ended up back at the scene of a massive blaze, inquiring about canine calamities. The publisher seemed visibly disappointed that none
of the now-homeless families’ dogs had been barbecued. “People love dogs,” he assured us during our afternoon news meeting. “Anything about dogs they’ll read.” That lesson crossed my mind a few weeks ago as I was driving home from Ruff Road, a Phoenix-based dog rescue. There, the shelter’s owner, a sweet woman named Anne, had totally seen me coming. I had driven over to meet Lucy, an eightpound bedraggled ball of fur who resembled a cross between a Yorkie, a Chihuahua and an old rust-and-brown throw rug. “I’ll go grab her,” said Anne. “And I’ll bring her bestie, too. Ethel.” The dog has a best friend? “Oh yes. They grew up together, they’re inseparable.” Anne paused – possibly for dramatic effect. “But I’m sure they’ll be fine apart if you only want Lucy.” This was how I ended up adopting
two dogs. They’re 3 years old, with Ethel — a reddish 12-pound mix of rat terrier, cocker spaniel and Chihuahua — serving as muscle, while Lucy appears to be the brains of the operation. Meaning Lucy’s the one who bops open the door to the closet so Ethel can fetch a Nike for a joint chewfest. They’ve settled right in running my house, too. Back in the day, I enjoyed laying on the couch to watch golf on the weekends. They’ve decided I’m restricted to one cushion now, while they reserve the other two for naps and wrestling matches. Did I mention watching golf sitting up is more relaxing than it looks? The girls also have decided that I spend too much time sleeping and my face needs additional moisturizing. Most days, the face licking starts at about 3:45 a.m., but that’s OK. Did I mention I get a lot of work done early and under cover of darkness? We’ve all learned quite a bit over the past couple of months. For example,
having lived alone for a few years, I’d forgotten that French fries are meant to be shared equally. I’ve also finally learned never to leave my socks on the floor or anywhere within 6 inches of the ground. Also, it’s unwise to leave the front door cracked while you fetch the mail or grab DoorDash off the porch — unless you’re gung-ho to practice barefoot sprints up and down the street while the neighbor kids laugh at you. I needed the cardio anyway. And so what if all my golf shoes have bite marks now, and someone attempted to install a second doggie door by chewing through some wallboard, and someone stole the last slice of pizza off the coffee table and dragged it into the bedroom? All of it is a very small price to pay. My old publisher was right. People, or at least this person, really do love dogs more than people.
policy, most Arizonans couldn’t even access unpaid family leave at their jobs. That leaves working families behind — for some it means they are unable to pay rent, make car payments, afford an education or put food on the table. That’s simply unacceptable. That’s why I introduced HB 2756. It’s time for our state’s laws to reflect our state’s workers’ needs. We need a sustainable paid leave policy in place so that families and businesses are never scrambling for piecemeal solutions
when illness strikes, a serious family caregiving need arises, or a new child is born or adopted. And now, President Biden has proposed a paid family and medical leave plan so you can access these protections no matter where you live or who you work for. Too often, women are held back when a family needs help. Taking them out of the workplace has ripples across the economy, as we’ve seen over the past year. In Arizona, women make up 47% of the workforce and 28% of small-business owners. Those women’s wages support their households, with 73% of Black mothers, 46% of white mothers, 49% of Latina mothers and 45%
of AAPI mothers being their family’s breadwinner. By the end of 2020, Arizona’s labor force had lost 19,000 workers, and nearly five times as many women were unemployed compared to one year earlier. Paid leave and care policies have the potential to help the economy grow as much as 5% by bringing women’s labor force participation rates in the United States up to levels in other countries. Without paid leave, we’re leaving a chunk of the economy on the table. Arizona also has an aging population — 1 in 5 workers is at least 55 years old. Older workers naturally need more medical care and have more serious is-

HB 2756 aims to introduce sustainable paid leave BY STATE REP. CÉSAR CHÁVEZ Legislative District 29
As our country begins to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, our government needs to take big steps to help our Arizonan families stand back up stronger than ever while also ensuring our economy doesn’t falter and leave families out in the cold. It has never made sense that a worker needs to go into work when sick, that a new parent needs to leave a newborn to return to work, that a son can’t take care of an older mother who is sick. We have the opportunity to finally change that and pass a national paid leave policy. Even before the pandemic exacerbated the failures of not having a paid leave

‘Frosted Flake’ feels the chill BY JD HAYWORTH
Glendale Star Columnist
You’ve heard the old joke about the minister who uses the invocation he delivers at a political banquet as both a warning and a teaching moment: “Oh Lord, make our words sweet, for one day we may have to eat them!” This is not that type of column, though it offers a form of confession. Despite that anecdotal admonition, the sweetest words of tongue, pen, or word processor are simply these: “Told you so!” Your not-so-humble columnist refers you to an essay he authored two years ago that predicted an incoming U.S. senator from Utah would emulate the curious conduct of a departing one from Arizona: https://bit.ly/33G0pyM No gift of prophecy was needed; Mitt Romney offered ample notice that he fully intended to become the gray-templed version of Jeff Flake. If anything, Romney has eclipsed the obnoxiousness of the now-retired Flake — and that’s saying something. Speaking of saying something, that’s one of the main sources of revenue for Arizona’s “one-term wonder.” Flake now enjoys financial recompense from organizations such as CBS News whenever the “journalists” there need a comment criticizing the Republican Party. Add to that a board position with an Arizona-based national homebuilder, and Jeff can say with his ever-present smirk, that advocating cheap labor and open borders is good for the economy — at least for the economic conditions of the Flake family. While the financial windfall may take the sting out of the 18% approval rating that prompted Flake’s flight-instead-of-fight in a campaign for reelection, how should we regard Romney’s current conduct? What motivates Mitt these days? Willard Mitt Romney is not motivated by money, because he’s already made a boatload. Planning and executing corporate takeovers, exporting jobs overseas, and shrinking the domestic job market helped fatten Mitt’s wallet to the point that he even put some of his dough in offshore accounts, mirroring the commerce he sent elsewhere.
And elsewhere is where Mitt Romney wants to be. Specifically at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, in a big White House. He denies such intentions, but “follow your dreams” is the obligatory advice dispensed at high school and college commencements, and it’s something that Romney finds tough to reject — especially when one such dream has been realized. Mitt made no effort to mask his delight at Donald Trump’s departure from the executive mansion. Indeed, Romney must feel it is some sort of cosmic retribution directly for his own benefit. How else to explain his self-centered response to fellow Utah Republicans, who booed him lustily when he tried to defend his two votes for Trump’s impeachment and asserted that he “wasn’t a fan of our last president’s character issues.” Taking umbrage at their catcalls and hostility, Romney asked the assembled multitude, “Aren’t you embarrassed?” Apparently, plenty of Utah party activists are embarrassed by Mitt’s actions in the Senate. Though a censure resolution against Romney failed by 87 votes out of 1,509 cast at the recent state convention, two Republican county organizations have censured their junior senator. It may eventually dawn on Romney that the “Flake-iness” he has employed is not doing him any favors. If he is intent on remaining in public office, Romney must use these next two years to rehabilitate himself in the eyes of conservative activists within Utah’s GOP. Failing that, Mitt Romney in 2024 may discover what Jeff Flake did in 2018 — that he doesn’t have a prayer.

sues arise. If our state continues to fail to prescribe policy to help them, these older workers and their families continue to suffer at a growing rate. I represent one of the most impoverished districts in the state of Arizona. My constituents have not had the luxury of staying home and working virtually, because they are essential workers. They work in warehouses, construction, landscaping. They are the reason why our economy has stayed afloat during the pandemic. A lack of paid leave policy reflects a lack of recognizing a worker’s humanity. Without planning for the reality that
workers will get sick, need to care for an ill family member or have a child, our government is both failing Arizona families and businesses. Enacting such policy lets families, businesses and the economy as a whole have a realistic plan in place to catch workers and their families. Enacting paid leave boosts our families and boosts our economy. In Arizona, we have the chance to push for a national paid leave policy that helps Arizonans and all Americans so that a new child, an ailing parent or finding yourself ill doesn’t put your livelihood on the line.

READER’S VIEWPOINT LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Bonds are mutual beneficial partnerships
Editor: On Nov. 6, 2016, Pendergast district voters successfully passed a bond election for $59.9 million. The election passed because our community believes in us, and for that, we’re grateful beyond measure. As stewards of our taxpayers’ money, it is critical to ensure we are being transparent and accountable for these funds and their expenditure. Many of our district buildings are aging and must be upgraded for health and safety standards to be met as well as to ensure high-quality teaching and learning environments. Our team conducted a rigorous needs assessment to determine what were the priorities of the district and to take in consideration the impact of the loss of more than $15 million over the past six years in capital revenue due to state budget reductions. The reality is the state budget has been significantly reduced so that districts are not receiving the funds for improvements they used to, so school districts, such as Pendergast, must go to the voters to ask for their support. A district bond works much like a home loan or corporate bond. The basic purpose is to allow the borrower to spend money right away and then pay it back over time. Bonds are usually used to fund capital improvement projects, or “brick and mortar.” Before a bond is submitted to our voters for approval, a committee consisting of Pendergast staff and community leaders conducts a needs assessment and seeks input on proposed projects prior to making a recommendation to the governing board. At the Feb. 23 Pendergast Governing Board meeting, Joanne Fimbres, our chief financial officer, and her operations team gave a presentation detailing the accountability on how the bond
dollars have been spent thus far. Ms. Fimbres presented in great detail about the expenditures and improvements, including the following: • New roofing projects at all 12 schools and district office buildings. • Interior and exterior painting of facilities and flooring. • Water fountain upgrades to meet new standards. • Restroom remodels. • Lighting, HVAC work and replacements, energy management controls and duct work replacement. • Fire alarms, security cameras, districtwide radios and intercom systems, playground improvements, landscape improvements, parking lot resurfacing and fencing. • New classroom construction, administrative, lobby and security office remodels. • Bus replacement and maintenance vehicles. • Districtwide technology including laptops, Chromebooks and data center upgrades. • Furniture and equipment and district copiers. Pendergast district prides itself in financial transparency and accountability and is grateful for your support. We are continuing to assess our future needs to further the work that has been started. We will ensure our facilities meet health and safety standards and our students have the tools they need to be successful in their future endeavors. Our mission, “Empowering Excellence and Success,” is directly tied to each of our students, staff, families and the communities we serve. It is our fervent hope to show our stakeholders that their investment in the district is a mutually beneficial partnership that improves not only our facilities but also the communities we serve. Dr. Jennifer Cruz Acting Superintendent Pendergast Elementary School District

Keller Williams Realty hires West USA agent BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Formerly of West USA in Peoria, real estate agent Rebecca Durfey joined Keller Williams Realty in Glendale. The $50 million in volume producer strives to give her clients an “exceptional experience” when they are buying and selling. Durfey spent 20 years with West USA and has kind words for her former brokerage. “They always let me do my own thing, and that’s worked well for a long time,” Durfey said. “I’ve never felt it necessary to make a switch until I realized I’ve accomplished as much
as I can at West USA, and I needed to finally embrace Keller Williams’ offerings to help me grow and serve my clients even better.” When Durfey started in real estate 20 years ago, she thought she’d be doing well if she could close five deals a year. In 2020, she closed more than 100 — all as a single agent with one licensed assistant, Sherri Dastrup. Through the years, Durfey has taken a deep dive into the Keller Williams by forming relationships with KW agents and leaders, following executive chairman of the board Gary Keller’s communications and teachings, reading
Keller’s books and attending several of the company’s events. Now, she is taking the natural next step for her career, with her clients’ best interests at heart. “This move is not about the dollar. It’s not about production or numbers. For me, this is about partnering with a company that can help me continue to exceed my clients’ expectations,” Durfey said. Now that she’s made the transition to Keller Williams, her goal is to build upon her business by implementing the proven technology solutions, systems and processes.
“Because I’m Type A and motivated by efficiency, I’m anticipating a more streamlined, high-performance operation,” Durfey said. With the support she will get from Keller Williams, she hopes to increase her bandwidth by adding new team members and reaching the next level of success, which she always measures through the lens of client satisfaction. “I already know how to buy and sell a home. What I love is this idea of personal growth and education and a better understanding of the business side of things: creating a team of proficient people,” Durfey added.
BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF The Arizona Coyotes Foundation, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona and Sharecare are launching a small business spotlight that will highlight five Arizona-based small businesses during the 2021-22 NHL season. The initiative’s goal is to increase the exposure of small businesses in the Valley. Supporting small businesses is one of the main objectives of the Arizona Coyotes Foundation and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona. To participate in the program, businesses must apply at arizonacoyotes. com/smallbusiness. The submission deadline is June 11. Businesses must be headquartered in Arizona and employ two to 50 employees. They cannot be a 501(c)(3). Applicants will be selected based on commitment to customers, concern for
the health and wellness of employees, community service, diversity and inclusion. The five selected businesses will receive a $2,000 check toward a health and wellness initiative of its choice. The grant is provided by a combination of funds provided by the Coyotes and Sharecare, a health and wellness platform that promotes healthy lifestyles. “This is a very important program for us,” said Coyotes President and CEO Xavier A. Gutierrez. “We are thrilled to team up with our incredible partner in Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona and continue our longstanding relationship with them, not just as a corporate partner but as a community partner,” Gutierrez said. “We both are aligned when it comes to embracing our responsibility to being a community leader. It is also im-

They will also be featured in a 2021-22 Arizona Coyotes gameday spotlight, which also includes a 12-person suite for a Coyotes game. The dates for the winners will be set when the 2021-22 NHL schedule is released.

House hunting moves fast these days. The average number of days a listing is on the market in Maricopa County dropped to 28.7 days from 34 last month as prices continue to climb. According to the Cromford Report, 56% of sales closed in Maricopa County during April sold for an amount over the listing price, up from 50% of March sales. April saw 415 MLS listing sales closed in Glendale and 420 in Peoria. Today, there are 179 active and available listings (not counting properties already under contract or pending close of escrow) in MLS in Glendale and 143 active listings in Peoria. That’s 43% of one month’s inventory in Glendale, up from 23.5% in March, and 34% of one month’s inventory in Peoria, up from 27%. Today’s Maricopa County inventory is 47% of April’s closed sales, up from 39.9% in March. The number of showings in the $200,000 to $299,000 range dropped 13.6% in Peoria and 18.6% in Glendale. Not all showings are scheduled through ShowingTime, so actual numbers are typically higher but unlikely to make up for the drop in this range. According to ShowingTime, the platform Realtors use to schedule most of the MLS showings, showings of Peoria listings in the $300,000 to $399,999 range averaged 20.13 showings per listing, and Peoria traffic in the $200,000 to $299,999 range averaged 25.51 showings per listing. In Glendale, homes in the $300,000 to $399,999 range averaged 16.86 showings per listings, and in the $200,000 to $299,999, the average was 28.67 showings per listing. According to Freddie Mac, mortgage rates are continuing to decline. As of May 14, reported weekly national mortgage rates average 2.94% for a 30year fixed, 2.26% for a 15-year fixed rate, and 2.59% for a five-year ARM. FHA buyers in Maricopa County paid a minimum of $205,000 for a
detached home with three bedrooms and two baths in April, and that was paid in Glendale. Peoria FHA buyers paid a minimum of $290,000. Conventional financing buyers saw minimums of $208,500 in Maricopa County, $240,000 in Peoria and $270,00 in Glendale. Maricopa County VA buyers paid a minimum of $242,500, Peoria VA buyers paid $260,000, and Glendale VA buyers saw a 16% jump in their minimum to $332,000. According to MLS statistics, 75% of Maricopa County buyers financed their purchases in April, up slightly from March. Conventional financing made up 75% of those sales, FHA financing 9.5%, VA financing 5.2%, and the remaining sales used other financing methods. For the week ending April 25, only 3% of Maricopa County sellers contributed to their buyers’ closing costs. If your finances need to pick up a little speed, know that you are not alone. If you’re a homeowner, contact your lender to see what programs they are offering.

Mogollon brings the ‘universal language’ to the stage BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Glendale Star Executive Editor
Duane Moore said he feels he hasn’t worked a day in his life. Moore loves everything about the music business — and has since he co-founded Mogollon in 1979. “I love it so much,” Moore said. “I enjoy the people and the music. I love music. I really haven’t done anything else. There’s work involved just like anything else.” Named after Moore’s residence at the Mogollon Rim, the band is a high-energy four piece that plays rock and, specifically, old country. “I don’t like the stuff that’s out,” Moore said. “We play from Waylon to Willie to Hank Williams to Johnny Cash to Lynyrd Skynyrd to Pink Floyd. We play all the good classic rock. “I play fiddle on stage, too. That works out well for a lot of cool Alabama songs.” Music is “huge” for Moore, who is joined in the band by guitarist Guy Koplitz of Chandler, bassist/producer Bryan Kuban of Scottsdale, and drummer Jon Kinsey of Mesa. If Moore feels depressed, everything lifts when he picks up his guitar, strums a few chords and writes a song. “It comes full circle,” Moore said. “It’s the universal language.” That language is shared at gigs like those at Murphy Park in Glendale on May 21 and We-Ko-Pa Casino on June 18 and July 16. “Sharing is an amazing thing,” Moore said. “I don’t use an iPad for

the lyrics. If I need to look at the lyrics when I’m on stage, I don’t want to sing it. I don’t believe I’m getting the points across. “The mechanics should be secondary so I can feel what I’m singing. I think people feel that more than they understand that. We’re in the business of selling emotions. It’s a very emotionally driven industry, and that’s what we do. It’s cool when people come up and say, ‘I just had the time of my life’ or ‘My wife and I have been married x number of years. We met at your concert.’” When the audience is involved, Moore said, it creates an energy, the synergy that’s “pretty powerful.” “It’s not performer-audience,” he
said. “The audience is part of us. It’s cool when you reach a pinnacle. It’s just crazy cool, getting out into the audience with my fiddle and running around. We just like to have fun with them. They love it.” Music has helped Moore through tough times. His brother and sister passed away at 31 and 43, respectively, of complications of neurofibromatosis, a rare, inherited disorder that results in benign tumors of the nerves and other parts of the body. “I hope to retire from music one day and move back to my roots,” he said. “My best friends — my brother and sister — are interred there. “They died pretty young, but every-
The Glendale
body has a sad story. I’m a mountain boy. I moved down here because it was a good, central location.” The COVID-19 pandemic has been productive for Moore. He took the time to reinvent himself and retool his approach to the music side of music. “I’m doing extremely well by myself,” he said. “I’ve never played so many single gigs. Not everybody was out of work. Our industry was beat up. Restaurants, musicians and bands were beat up bad. “Anytime I get on stage, I thank my audience profusely. Over the years, I’ve been playing a lot of great places all over the world. I’ve taken my music to exotic places. All those years prior to COVID, I took music for granted. You don’t know what you have until it’s taken away from you. Now I drink every moment like water. I absorb it. I tell the audience that story, and I thank each and every one of them.”

Endangered jaguar cubs born at Wildlife World Zoo BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park recently announced the births of one melanistic and two spotted endangered jaguar cubs. The Wildlife World staff is hand-raising the cubs. The cubs have bottles of formula several times a day, and over the next few weeks, they will begin the transition to include meat in their diet. Jaguars are the largest feline in the world and rank third in size behind lions and tigers. Males can grow to about 200 pounds and are known to have the strongest bite of any feline species. Their stocky build helps them climb with ease in their preferred rainforest habitat, enabling them to stalk and ambush prey. A sizable fraction of the population is black with black spots. Jaguars have an extensive range throughout Central and South America and were once found throughout the desert Southwest, including Arizona. Recent sightings of a male in Arizona make that jaguar the only known one
of its kind in the United States. Jaguars, an endangered species, face an uncertain future because of habitat loss and fragmentation. Many are killed because of increasing human-animal conflicts over space and resources. Habitat loss and degradation along with increased poaching remain the biggest threats to the feline’s survival. With more than 600 species and 6,000 animals on display, there are always new arrivals at Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park. Other babies on display include baby warthogs, tapir, giraffe, baby sable antelope, endangered addax, Arabian oryx and other youngsters throughout the 100-acre park.
The park is a USDA-licensed, private institution, accredited by the Zoological Association of America and the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks & Aquariums. Wildlife World Zoo does not use tax dollars to build or operate its facility.
Wildlife World’s keepers and veterinarians have raised dozens of species of wild and endangered animals over the past quarter century. Wildlife World strives to maximize genetic diversity in the zoological population with its breeding programs.

Remote appearances for evictions become permanent BY JUDGE GERALD A. WILLIAMS North Valley Justice of the Peace
Even though our front doors have remained largely closed, courts have remained open. Many, if not most, appearances are being done either over the phone or by a video link. In Maricopa County, residential eviction actions have largely been conducted in a conference call format. Gov. Doug Ducey recently signed Senate Bill 1322 into law. It creates a new statute, A.R.S. § 22-206, that authorizes landlords, tenants, attorneys and witnesses to appear at the first court date for a residential eviction action “by using a telephone or video conference connection.” To participate remotely rather than in person, advance written notice to the court is required. The new law does not define either the format or deadline for that notice, but there will likely be a court rule to clarify those issues. My best guess is that sending an email to the court will fulfill the notice require-
ment. If the case is set for a trial, the judge has the option of requiring everyone to appear in person. Courts in Maricopa County are moving toward an online platform called Court Connect. It is somewhat similar to Microsoft Teams. It allows all participants to see each other and to share documents and exhibits. There are obviously advantages and disadvantages to appearing remotely. Nothing is as good as having everyone in the same room. However, remote appearances increase access to justice because they can solve transportation problems and allow people to take
less time off work. Prior to COVID-19, I conducted garnishment hearings, default hearings and civil pretrial conferences by telephone because our courthouse is often nowhere near the people who need to access it. (Yes, the courthouse for Anthem and for Desert Hills is actually in Surprise.) While I look forward to seeing people in the courtroom again on a regular basis, all judges will soon have the additional option of conducting cases remotely. Maybe participating in the equivalent of a Zoom call
for your traffic ticket is not how you envisioned your day in court, but it is nice to have that option. Judge Gerald A. Williams is the justice of the peace for the North Valley Justice Court. The court’s jurisdiction includes parts of Anthem, Desert Hills, Glendale and Phoenix.

When is enough ever going to be enough? In today’s world, almost everyone is looking for perfection. Perfection seekers seek the perfect partner, perfect job, perfect life, perfect government, perfect environment, the perfect identity, the perfect society, the perfect everything. Even though perfection seekers think and act from the ends of the bell-shaped curve, they set the bar of perfection for everyone else, too. The problem is they expect everybody else to comply with what they or their perfect focus group is seeking. There is nothing wrong with desiring to make things better, but demanding perfection in everything makes one’s trivial pursuit a trivial pursuit. Why? Because there will never be enough perfection in what they want. Enter the cancel culture. Good things, taken to extremes, can become bad things, quickly and destructively. This story might be something the perfection seekers might consider. A friend asked a man why he never married. The man replied, “Well, I guess I just never met the right woman. I guess I was looking for the perfect girl.” “Oh, come on now,” said the friend. “Surely you have met at least one girl that you wanted to marry.” “Yes, there was a special girl once. She was the

only perfect girl that I ever met. She was just the right everything. She was the perfect girl for me.” “Well, why didn’t you marry her?” asked the friend. He replied, “She was looking for the perfect man.” Perfection seeking works both ways. There was once a man named Solomon in the Bible. He pursued life to the fullest, and he could do it. He was the wealthiest man on earth. He could buy anything and do anything he wanted. He was an extreme person with extreme excesses in life and thought in every way. He started a quest to find contentment and meaning in life. He sought to find new sources of significance, identity and security. He thought he would find perfection in something or someone other than God. Even though God gave him massive resources, God was not enough. God seemed so old-fashioned and out of date.

God. Next, he sought to find fulfillment in nature and the environment. “I made gardens and parks for myself. I made ponds of water for myself from which to irrigate a forest of growing trees.” He was going green, thinking that it would fill the void inside him. Green is a good thing, but green taken to an extreme can become a bad thing. Green issues, taken to extremes, often become political, personal and toxic to the people demanding them. Often, they consider themselves more virtuous than others and then disdain anyone who is not as extreme or “perfect” as they are. And because there will never be enough, it sours others who have environmental concerns, hurting the cause more than helping the cause. Solomon’s subsequent trivial pursuit was trying to be the most prominent and wealthiest businessman in the world. In verses seven to eight, he said, “Also I possessed flocks and herds larger than all who preceded me. I collected silver and gold and the treasures of kings and provinces.” He displaced the Amazon and Facebook of his time and became the top unicorn. He was the latest, the greatest, SEE DELPH PAGE 21

His recollections about his perfection quest are recorded in Ecclesiastes, Chapter 2, for us to glean. In verse three, Solomon said, “I explored with my heart how to stimulate my body with wine … and how to take hold of folly.” Heaps of people do that. Excessive alcohol, drugs, uppers, downers, stimulants and the like will never heal life’s wounds or give meaningful answers to life. Why? There will never be enough highs. The problem with extreme highs is that you have extreme lows, and the following highs need to be higher than the last high. In verse four, Solomon says, “I enlarged my works. I built houses for myself and planted in them all kinds of trees.” He tried better homes and gardens to see if life was about owning the most expensive house on the block. That way, he could see and be seen. Maybe he even would be mentioned on one of those Hollywood celebrity shows. It was a quick fix for a short time, and then off he went, looking for another newfound source of significance and security. The problem was not in the houses and trees. The problem was in Solomon. He was trying to fill his Godshaped void with something other than

the biggest, the best. To Solomon, this was like backing up the Titanic and running over the iceberg again. Then Solomon tried every kind of sex and excess pleasure in verse eight. “I provided male and female singers and the pleasures of men — many concubines.” If sex made people content, the world would shine like the sun. But, as the song says in the movie “The Greatest Showman,” “There will be never enough for me.” Nope, after a while, that was toxic and empty, too. Finally, Solomon became the most famous and wealthy man who ever lived from the beginning of history. Not even this could satisfy his search for significance and security. When was enough ever going to be enough? Happiness, contentment, perfection and the real meaning of life were like a greased pig to Solomon. Every time he thought he caught the pig, it squirmed right out of his arms. Sound familiar? Eventually, Solomon had an “aha” moment. He realized all his trivial pursuits were “vanity and striving after wind.” He got it. The only thing that could ever fill

the God-shaped void inside him is God. He says it this way, “…fear God and keep His commandments because this applies to every person.” Ecclesiastes 12:13. Solomon’s conclusion applies to us also. Finally, and thankfully, enough became enough. I think that greased pig just got caught. Our takeaway? Good things, taken to extremes, will eventually become bad things that end up hurting your cause more than helping your cause. Pursue excellence, not perfection. Otherwise, you’ll end up in the perfect storm you created. Ed Delph is Phoenix native who lives in the North Valley. Since 1980, he has pastored three churches in the Valley.

Barbie pop-up truck rolling into Glendale BY ANNIKA TOMLIN
Glendale Star Staff Writer
In fall 2019, Mattel celebrated Barbie’s 60th anniversary by sending an independently licensed ’80s and ’90s Barbie-themed Mercedes Sprinter across the country on the Barbie Totally Throwback Tour. The pop-up truck pulls into Arrowhead Towne Center from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, May 29. “The Barbie Throwback Tour is its own unique experience,” said Hannie Peng, Barbie truck operations manager. “It has its own trendy, retro-inspired Barbie apparel and accessories, and it’s for fans of all ages to enjoy all across the country.” Peng is charged with the logistics, marketing and routing. “We as of now have visited over 30 cities,” Peng said. “We are looking to visit a lot more. “We obviously had to stop for part of 2020, so that really pushed our schedule around, but we’re not looking to stop anytime soon — hopefully. I can’t really say how many more cities but hopefully a lot more.” The truck boasts fun merch like airbrushed denim jackets, Polaroid cameras, iridescent vinyl fanny packs and cosmetic bags. Among the top sellers are embroidered denim jackets and the patch sets, according to Peng. “People love our patch sets to put onto their other clothing,” Peng said. “We have both iron-on and stick-on ones so they can work on all materials.” The denim jacket comes in kids and adult sizes. “These (jackets) are all meant to be a little bit oversized,” Peng said. “If you normally wear a large/extra large, you could wear a small/medium if you wanted it to be a little bit more fitted.” The outdoor mobile pop-up will

also sell exclusive Barbie embroidered caps, T-shirts, iridescent vinyl “boombox” tote bags and “cassette tape” wallets. Other top-selling items include the pink Barbie thermal bottle and iridescent fanny pack. Merchandise will be available to purchase from the pop-up truck by credit card only. Pieces range from $12 to $75. “I think the hardest part (about this tour) is probably seeing where fans are in the country,” Peng said. “We’re going into this pretty blind, but luckily we have had a really great experience everywhere that we have gone — but you never know. “We’re going out to different places without really knowing what kind of reception we are going to get. It is always hard. We’re not a ticketed event. We just show up and let people know that we are in that area. It’s really up to them whether they want to come and see us.” One of Peng’s favorite parts of the tour is seeing people come dressed up when they visit the truck.
“(I love) seeing all the fans around the country and seeing how many Barbie fans there really are,” Peng said. “People bring their dolls to take pictures with the truck. A lot of times we see people dressed up like their dolls, which is amazing.” To provide a safe experience for all guests, social distancing stickers will be used every 6 feet. Staff will wear masks and gloves inside the Barbie truck, counters and payment readers will be wiped down every 30 minutes, hand sanitizer will be provided and contactless/cashless transactions will be available. Guests who have a cough or fever should stay home.

OBITUARIES
Cherie (Woods) Donovan
Cherie Donovan (nee: Woods), age 88, of Phoenix, AZ passed on May 1, 2021. She was born on January 31, 1933 at the “old” St. Joseph’s Hospital on Phoenix and spent her first three years in Phoenix with her family. Her father was transferred to Glendale with the telephone company, for a couple years. After two years in Glendale, the family built a small home on “F” Street just off Lateral 59 (now 59th Ave. and Gardenia) Now a part of the Glendale Caitlin Court historic district. Cherie was the youngest of three children to Forest and Ruby Woods. Beverly (Hugh) was the oldest and Evelyn (Sexton) was the middle child. Glendale was a small mostly agricultural community in the 30’s 40’s and 50’s. The town was officially one square mile in size for many of those years. All the neighbors knew each other and all the kids were friends and had loads of fun. These were tough times, but Glendale was a long way away for the Depression and World War II, but the depression and make due years of the war stuck with Cherie for the rest of her life. Cherie and her sisters were very close to her grandparents and spent many a Sunday in Phoenix and some of their summers with them, way over in Phoenix. Cherie would follow her sister Evelyn to Glendale Grammar School. After a couple weeks the school said to Cherie’s mom, if she wants to go to school so bad, let her stay and so she was enrolled in the first grade a year early. She loved school and was a good student. Cherie attended and graduated from Glendale High school in 1950. Cherie remained friends with many of her Glendale and school friends for the rest of her life. She loved attending Glendale High School reunions and everything about Glendale. She was always a Glendale girl even though she lived in Phoenix for 65 years of her life. Her parents and sisters remained Glendale families so there were many a family events and activities in Glendale all her life. After High School she attended Lamson Business College. In 1953 she met her soon to be husband at Barrows Furniture Company and were married in 1955. Due to company policy she left Barrows after they became a couple. When their son Greg was born, A WORD ABOUT OBITUARIES

she became a fulltime mom and remained a homemaker the rest of her life. Cherie became quit a tennis player in the 70’s and 80’s and was a regular at the Phoenix Tennis center for years. Until her first bought with breast cancer. Cherie was a two-time breast cancer survivor and a serious heart attack survivor. Her demise was heart failure and Bone cancer. Cherie loved to talk as anyone who ever knew her or spent time with her well knew. She never met a stranger. She never ran out of conversation. She also loved her yard, where she would rather be than ever doing inside chores or housekeeping. Plainly said, she would rather be doing any type of yard work, plants and flowers than most anything else. Going out of her way to see a plant or how someone’s yard was doing was not an uncommon thing to do. She seemed to know the name of every plant and tree around even though she had no formal education in that field. Her nemesis in life was “weeds in the yard.” At Easter this past April, even with failing health, her son teased her and said they were going to spend the day pulling weeds in his yard, her reply was “I would love that.” Cherie is survived by her son Greg Donovan (Barbara) former Mary, granddaughters Teresa Donovan and Colleen Donovan, Sister Evelyn Sexton (passed May 9, 2021). Many nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews. An Aunt, Joy Logan. She loved them all. Much thanks to all the family who took her to appointments, called her regularly and picking her up for Sunday Dinner. She was predeceased by her parents Forest and Ruby Woods. Sister Beverly (Hugh), Husband Fred, and many other family members. Brothers-in-law and sisters–in-law of both the Woods and Donovan families. A special Thanks to Spring Valley Assisted Living and Hospice of Hope for her last few months. They were wonderful to her.
