obituaries

As the holiday season has a lit-

tle more than a week remain-

ing, we want to take this op-

portunity to thank everyone who has

stepped up to help those in need. This

time of year usually brings out the

best in people. Judging from the num-

ber of announcements we receivedfrom our readers regarding donation

drives, it looks like this year was no ex-

ception.

In the past, specific tragedies – such

as Hurricane Sandy a few years ago –

created an immediate need in many

communities. But even though this

area was lucky enough to avoid such a

circumstance this year, there is still a

big need.

Food banks are still low on food and

supplies. The same can be said for

those groups that help with clothing,

and even toys for children.

Over the past few weeks, we have

had the pleasure of publishing stories

about efforts to lend a hand. Like al-

ways, there were the usual Toys for Tot

drives and more. We don’t keep a for-

mal count of the number of holiday

fundraising event stories we publish

from year to year, but it certainly

seemed that, in 2015, there were many.

So, we thank those individuals and

groups who organized these efforts.

And, on behalf of them, we also thank

everyone who picked up an extra can

of non-perishable food, an additionalbag of dog food, one more toy and

more. To all of those who reached a lit-

tle deeper into their wallets this year to

help out, your generosity truly made a

difference.

As you wrap up your holiday shop-

ping for this year, try to lend one final

helping hand to those in need.

We wish everyone a happy holiday

season!

in our opinion

Happy holidays! A ‘thank you’ to ev eryone who helped to brighten the season for those in need

Stepping up

Thank you to everyone who lent a helpinghand to those in need this holiday season.But giving shouldn’t stop just because theholidays are over. Tell us about your dona-tion drive throughout the year,and we’ll share it with the rest of thecommunity.

orating with others. After the as-sembly, students learned and in-teracted with code in their com-puter class.

“Computers are everywhereand their usage will only contin-ue to grow … STEM is very im-portant in our schools. There area lot of activities for all levels. Wewanted to start at the elementarylevel, laying the foundation.Those who are inspired at anearly age will continue to do it,”computer teacher Mark Ambrosi-no said.

The Hour of Code is a globalevent during Computer ScienceWeek, Dec. 7 to 11, where millionsof children from around the

world complete coding activitiesto engage students and promotecomputer science in schools. TheHour of Code shows children thatcoding isn’t a scary experienceand anyone can do it.

“We want students to get thecomputer to do what they want itto do, not what others have donefor them. Many people are afraidof computers, but they are justtools. If you learn how they workand control them, you can reallypush your imagination,” Am-brosino said.

MTPS decided to host Hour of Code in its elementary schools

last year because STEM is heldvery highly in the district.

During the assembly, parentsEric Mauger and Dr. Joanne

Broder Sumerson talked aboutthe importance of computer sci-ence in career fields and life, aswell as stepping away from thecomputer or “unplugging.”

For the week, students learnedabout plugged and unplugged ac-tivities. Students used Code.org tomanipulate well-known charac-ters from Minecraft and StarWars using codes to complete dif-ferent tasks.

“(Coding) is great. I like learn-ing about code … It’s good toknow because you use it a lot inschool and in life,” third graderTyler Mark said.

Unplugged activities were inthe students’ challenge classeswhere students had to collaborateand solve puzzles and gameswithout a computer. Studentsused pencil and paper as well ascommunicated with each other toaccomplish those tasks.

“It is important to unplug be-cause you need your sleep and to

get stronger,” third grader AnnaLeGrazie said.

“It is important to learn aboutcomputers and also when to walkaway. (Students) need to learn tocollaborate and talk, not lose thatvaluable skill,” Ambrosino said.

Students will continue to learnand use coding throughout De-cember.

The biggest thing Ambrosinohopes students take away fromlearning coding and other com-puter and technology skills isconfidence. He feels being confi-dence is very rewarding.

“I hope when they look at achallenge, they’ll see it as not dif-ficult, but a journey to grow andbe stronger. It is an awesome feel-ing. When they are strugglingand then finally figure out how todo it, they get excited and feelgood about it. I want them to seethat they can do this,” Ambrosinosaid.

However, this year was extraspecial, as the MCH had a fire inNovember that damaged the atticand affected other parts of thebuilding, causing it to be tem-porarily closed. It wasn’t longafter, the MCH received an over-whelming amount of support andwas able to get a lot of its facili-ties running again.

During the MCH Tree LightingCelebration, Board PresidentGeorge Schulmann and MCH Ex-ecutive Director Brad Kenneythanked those who helped duringand after the fire, and residentsfor helping and being supportiveof the town’s historic building.

“I’d like to thank everyone forbeing here in celebration of theholiday season, the CommunityHouse and the saving of the Com-munity House from the fire,”Kenney said.

“This is what this building hereis for, serving the community. Andwithout you, this building would-

n’t be here,” Schulmann said.The Sun came to the MCH Tree

Lighting Celebration to ask resi-dents their thoughts on the tradi-tion as well as their own holiday

traditions.All around, residents really

loved the MCH Tree Lighting Cel-ebration. They felt it’s a great andwonderful tradition that brings

the community together and getsthem in the holiday spirit.

“It starts the season. With theMoorestown Holiday Parade onSaturday and the tree lighting, itgets the kids really in the spirit,”Michelle Sullivan said.

“It’s a wonderful event that re-ally brings the community to-gether,” Ann Chardo said.

Residents were happy the MCHheld the lighting despite the fire.The amount of support by peopleshowed the dedication and en-durance of the MCH and the com-munity.

“It shows the perseverance of the town and the support theMCH has and the town has in gen-eral,” Sullivan said.

“I think the turnout shows howappreciative people are that it did-n’t burn down,” Missy Roth said.

Newlyweds Ben and LeahSmith said it was their first timeattending the tree lighting.They’ve always done the annual

Moorestown Lions Club HolidayParade, held on Dec. 5 this year,and learned about the tree light-ing, so they decided to come andcheck it out. Leah grew up in a

town where they don’t have anysuch holiday events, so for her,the Moorestown holiday eventsare special and exciting.

“I grew up in a town where we

didn’t do anything, and when Istarted dating him (Ben), I starteddoing the parade. I think I gotmore excited for it than he did,”Leah said.

The Smith’s holiday traditionsinclude the Moorestown HolidayParade, Philadelphia’s Macy’sCharles Dickens and light show,and, now, the MCH Tree LightingCelebration.

Many residents have differenttraditions, but all spoke aboutspending time with family andcelebrating together.

“(It’s about) celebrating withfamily, eating, drinking and beingmerry,” Faith Tarangelo said. “Ilove seeing all of the decorationsand kids’ faces on Christmas daywhen they open their presents.”

According to Schulmann, peo-ple have been asking how theycan help the MCH. He recom-mended visiting the Facebookpage or its restoration campaignat www.ourcommunityhouse.com

and donating there.“I can promise you that this

building will come back stronger,better and more beautiful thanever,” Schulmann said.

However, that didn’t stop ITAVNJfrom keeping up its volunteering,as members helped the Hermanfamily in their time of need aswell as still held the group’smonthly meeting on Dec. 9.

Irwin leaves behind a legacy of life, love and volunteerism thatcan’t be stopped.

Irwin wasn’t known as a talker,as Trudi, Irwin’s wife, was knownfor that. But he was known for hislove for animals, his ability to fix

anything, his crafting, sense of humor and his volunteering.

“He was fun, always had a joke… he was busy doing his wood-working and fixing all of thethings I break,” Trudi said with alaugh.

Irwin was a veteran of WWII.At the age of 19, he was draftedinto the Army. He was with theArmy for three years, in the heatof the battle in Germany andFrance. When he came back, he

met Trudi on a blind date andspent the then-grand sum of $20on their first date. From the firstdate, Trudi knew he was different

than the other men she had datedbefore.

“There was a feeling of greatcomfort with him. He was so gen-

tle, sweet and kind,” Trudi said.Irwin got his degree in engi-neering from Syracuse Universi-ty. With his degree, he and Trudimoved all over the east coast as heworked in mechanical and aero-space engineering with compa-nies such as Boeing and GE. Theyfinally settled in Moorestown,where Irwin was working just be-fore his retirement at 67.

Irwin and Trudi were all aboutvolunteerism from the start.Trudi grew up in a household of

volunteers and kept up that tradi-tion. The couple volunteered to-gether with schools, theaters, ani-mals, children and other organi-zations.

They started their own volun-teer organization, ITAVNJ, in2011 along with a group of Moorestown neighbors. ITAVNJ,part of the Village to Village Net-work, started with just $600 and adream to help those in need.Since then, it has expanded and

held fundraisers that allowed it toadd adjacent areas to ITAVNJ,such as Cinnaminson, Delran,Hainesport, Maple Shade and Mt.

Laurel.The group’s mission is to help

elderly and disabled neighbors of any age, and returning veterans,

remain safely and independentlyin their own homes by providingfree support services such asgoing out for groceries and run-ning errands; visiting, calling orreading to the visually impaired;giving caretakers a break; anddriving clients to local doctors, li-braries and stores.

What makes ITAVNJ unique isvolunteers and clients arematched so a personal connectionand relationship can be created,rather than having a different

person each time.“We match up a client with a

volunteer, who meet once a weekand eventually become friends,”Trudi said.

Volunteers do not provide serv-ices such as giving or dispensingmedication to clients, cleaningthe household or premises or giv-ing personal care and bathing.

Due to Irwin’s passing, ITAVNJis in need of a president. Trudiasks anyone who is interested in

holding the position of presidentto please reach out to her.ITAVNJ is also always in need

of volunteers. New volunteers areinvited to an hour-long trainingsession held each month with asocial worker from PrincetonHouse Behavioral Health inMoorestown, Jennifer Gio-vainazzi, and her assistant, LeilaFinklea.

“We don’t want this work to notcontinue. So we need to find peo-ple,” Trudi said.

Anyone who can’t volunteer,but is interested in helping theHermans and ITAVNJ, tax de-ductible donations in honor of Irwin can made out to It Takes aVillage NJ and sent to the organi-zation’s treasurer, Wini Gaskell,208 Paul Drive, Moorestown.

For further information aboutITAVNJ, to refer a new client or tovolunteer, go to www.itavnj.org,email [email protected] or call (856) 396-5783. You canalso check out the national organ-ization, the Village to Village Net-work, at www.vtvnetwork.org.
