15-20-minute presentation

The Northwest Neigh-
borhood plan is a response
to a proposed upscale,

east of Shady Oak Lane.
In order for that area to be

Letters to the editor

Festival Foods isnt Hometown
An open question for the
City Planning Commission and
Council.
Do you really think that Vero-
na needs another supermarket?
Do you really think that Festi-
val Foods is going to support
the community the way that
three generations of the Miller
family have given back to the
community? I find that hard to
believe.
They want to build in Home-
town Circle. What part of this is
hometown? When you go down
fast food lane, you are at the
food pantry. This leaves me to
believe that you no longer need
to purchase groceries.
Change is constant, but not
always for the best. This is the
last true mom and pop business.
Please do not let Festival
Foods use Hometown in the
naming of the store.

Ask the Verona
PHYSICAL THERAPY
Q. I have been exercising consistently after a rotator cuff surgery 6 months ago, but still
cant seem to move my shoulder all the way. Why does it feel like the range and strength
are still limited?
A. The muscles and tissues of the shoulder, cervical and scapular regions have a complex nature,
with some muscles working as stabilizers at times and becoming prime movers at other times.
You may need a more extensive exercise program that incorporates different forms of exercise in
order to gain more strength and range of motion. The lack of mobility and strength is more likely,
Susan Armstrong, MPT however, related to the fact that the tissues in the operated shoulder are not able to fully lengthen
Physical Therapist due to scar tissue, inflammation or chronic alignment issues. You will not be able to regain full
range or strength unless the muscles and tissues are able to gain full mobility. Manual treatment,
the use of modalities, and a specific exercise program with a trained Physical Therapist will allow
for the maximum return of the function of your shoulder, even at this point in your recovery
process. Contact Stellar Rehab at 608-845-2100 for more information.

Q. Is it more beneficial for athletes to get a massage the
day before or after an event?
A. The best answer for athletes is to do both, however if asked to
pick one I would say it is better for athletes to receive massage as
soon after their event as possible. Post Event Massage Therapy
helps facilitate and shorten the recovery process. It helps keep

DC, CCEP BCMT, CSCS the muscles infused with oxygenated and nutrient rich blood;
this keeps the muscles from becoming knotted and stiff, which
allows you to be less sore and tight the days following your event. The exception to this choice depends
on how you are feeling the days before your event. Should you feel like your legs are heavy or your body
is generally tight from training then I would recommend a pre-event massage so that you can get your legs
refreshed and the muscles loosened so that you can go into your event feeling the best you can possibly feel.

DENTIST
Q. Should my child wear a mouth guard during sports?
A. Absolutely, Yes! It may seem obvious that soft athletic guards can and do
protect the teeth from direct injury, but guards can protect in other ways as well.
Studies have clearly shown that athletic guards can reduce risk of concussions in
contact sports and reduce jaw fractures. A partial list of sports that participants
should wear athletic guards include: football, soccer, basketball, lacrosse, hockey,
rugby, water polo, martial arts, boxing, mountain biking, wrestling, weight lifting
Dr. James Sands, DDS and skate boarding.
Often with a collision, fall or blow (such as an elbow) to the head or jaw, the lower
jaw can be suddenly thrust against the upper teeth. This action can cause joint
injury, jaw fractures and concussions. This same action can cause massive teeth
fractures that can be protected by the shock absorption of the mouth guard.

INVESTMENTS
Q. Why Shouldnt I Let My Investments Take a Vacation?
A. Its summer again time for many of us to take a break. But you never want
your investments to go on vacation. So, how do you keep your portfolio working
hard all year long? For starters, make sure you own a sufficient amount of growth-
oriented investments. If you have too many investment vehicles that offer little risk but
also little growth potential, you may have trouble making progress toward your goals.
Next, review your progress at least once a year. Over time, the performance of different
investments within your portfolio could cause it to drift in ways that are unfavorable
Brendon Diers, AAMS to you or cause you to take on too much risk. Finally, dont look for shortcuts. True
investment success typically requires patience, persistence and the resilience to continue
Financial Advisor
investing even during market downturns. You need to establish your goals and keep them
constantly in mind as you invest. Hopefully, you will enjoy a pleasant vacation sometime
this summer. But your investment portfolio shouldnt take time off.

THE CARING CENTER
Q. How can I be sure my kids have a great summer?
A. Dont over plan/over schedule. Summer should be a
mix of fun family activities and relaxation after a busy school
year. If your children are old enough, have a discussion
around the supper table about everyones favorite things
about summer. Make a short list of the top favorites and then
try to include those things over the course of the summer. Leave room for spontaneity
and relaxation too and everyone should be happy!

REAL ESTATE
Q. What is the difference between a stand alone condo and a single family home?
A. A stand alone condo is built just like a traditional home. It doesnt share any walls
with neighboring condo units, and most people wouldnt know that it was not just a
traditional single family home. The primary difference though, is the fact that the land
is shared with several other owners. Ill use a home we recently listed in Belleville as
an example. There are 6 houses and one duplex that all share one parcel of land, and
because the land is shared, the houses are setup as a condo association. In this instance,
each home owner is responsible for the maintenance of their own home (interior and
Keith & Kinsey Schulz exterior), and the association is responsible for the maintenance of the lawn, snow
Real Estate Team removal, and the shared driveway. This differs from a traditional condo that has shared
walls where the association commonly maintains the exterior. In some instances,
properties are setup as stand alone condos because it allows the developer to put more
homes in a smaller acreage. Another common scenario in northern Wisconsin is old
lakefront resort properties that have converted the cabins to condos.

HEATING/COOLING
Q. How efficient is my air conditioner, and should I consider
replacing it?
A. The efficiency of your air conditioner is based on its SEER rating and
how well it has been maintained. Air conditioners that are 15 years old or
more probably fall into the 6-8 SEER rating range. A new 13-16 SEER
air conditioner could give you savings in the 35-60% range over your
existing unit. Even air conditioners installed as little as 5 years ago could

in addition to energy savings may justify replacing even these units. For

SENIOR CARE
Q. Why is Care At Home So Popular?
A. Elder care from Comfort Keepers helps elders live safely in their homes. Americas elder
population is growing as the Baby Boomer generation ages. With this comes a new desire to
maintain independence rather than receive care in a nursing home or other long-term facility.
According to the AARP, nine out of ten members polled state that it is very important to extremely
important to have access to services that will allow elders to live independently within their own
homes for as long as possible.
Thanks to home based elder care, this desire is absolutely attainable. Elder care providers such as

the next several years.
With modern advancements in technology and healthcare, new options for receiving care become more prominent and
accessible to elders.
With cost benefits as well as benefits to elders overall well-being, it is no surprise that the popularity of elder care has
grown exponentially. Recognizing these things, it demonstrates that the value of comfort and independence is priceless.

ATTORNEYS
Q. Are private campgrounds liable?
A. The best thing about summer is warmer weather, lakes and camping! Under
the Recreational Immunity Act, a private campground, owner or operator is
immune from civil liability for acts related to camping at a private campground if
a person is injured or killed on the premises. This immunity protection under the
Act, is because the camper has entered into the risk of camping and does so at his
or her own risk rather than at the risk or liability of the campground owner. The
immunity is not available if the person that seeks immunity intentionally causes
Attorney
injury or death, or has a willful wanton disregard for safety or reckless disregard
Gail Groy for safety. The campground does have responsibility to post warnings of danger
of conditions known to them. If you go camping this summer, be safe and be vigilant and most of all be
careful. This is a recreational activity that you partake in at your own risk of injury!

Ellen A. Maurer
Dorothy Ellen Allbeck
Maurer died June 11, 2017
of congestive heart failure
caused by chemo in 1995.
She was born May 28,
1941, the daughter of Frank
and Winifred (Manning)
Allbeck of Millville, Pa. She
grew up on a multi-purpose
farm that has been in her
family for seven generations,
183 years, since 1834.
In 1959, she graduated
from Millville Area Joint
High School. During her
youth she had raised Her-
eford beef cattle as a 4-H
project and used the proceeds
to help pay her tuition in
1959 at Penn State Univer-
sity, planning to study ani-
mal husbandry so she could
run a ranch out West, as she
was a big fan of Zane Grey
Westerns. Instead, she stud-
ied agricultural journalism,
which propelled her into a
career as teacher, writer, edi-
tor, photographer and inter-
national science communica-
tions consultant.
Penn State brought many
life-changing experiences.
Most important, she met
Arthur James Maurer, Penn
States Mr. Agriculture,
who was a judge for a Miss
Agriculture contest that she
won. He scheduled many
meetings for the two of
them to plan the next years
contest!
In 1962, Ellen also was
among 1,000 youth cho-
sen for President Kennedys
summer Students in Govern-
ment Program in Washing-
ton D.C., where she interned
with the USDAs Motion Pic-
ture Service. As part of the
internship, the 14 journalism
students were invited to Ken-
nedys press conferences in
the State Department and the
Rose Garden.
Graduation from Penn
State in 1963 brought more
adventures when she was
selected for a six-month 4-H
International Farm Youth
Exchange program to Pana-
ma. She brought back excit-
ing experiences of horse rac-
es, scorpions in her bed, bull
riding, aggressive Romeos,
and a Canal Zone War as
well as a lifelong passion for
international experiences.

passed into Gods heaven to
be reunited with husband,
Edgar, on Tuesday, June 13,
2017, due to complications
of Alzheimers. Thank you
to Four Winds Lodge/Mem-
ory Care Unit and Heartland
Palliative Care nurses, doc-
tors and staff for your uncon-
ditional love and care for
Clara.
Clara was born Sept. 10,
1924 at home in Primrose
township to Alfred & Anna
(Goebeli) Lehnherr, Sr. She
graduated from Primrose
Center Grade School, Mount
Horeb High School/MATC
and Madison Academy of
Ellen Maurer
In 1964, Rutgers University
hired her as the first female
4-H agent in Hunterdon
County, N.J., beginning a
41-year career in the land
grant university system.
On June 26, 1966, she
married Art Maurer and
joined him in Ithaca, N.Y.
at Cornell University, where
she helped teach a feature
writing class. From 1968 to
1970, a Cornell/Ford Foun-
dation grant took them to
the Philippines, where Ellen
wrote radio farm news and
edited textbooks while Art
conducted his Ph.D. research
in food and poultry science.
While there, she gave birth
to their daughter, Minda, on
Dec. 24, 1969.
In 1970, Ellen and Art
moved to Madison to careers
at the UW-Madisons Col-
lege of Agricultural and Life
Sciences, Art as a professor
and Ellen as a publications
editor in the Department of
Agricultural Journalism. She
specialized in working with
difficult authors, drawing
on her charm, patience and
persistence as well as her
editorial skills.
That year they moved into
their Verona home. On Jan.
24, 1974, their son Brant
was born. In 1978 she began
teaching courses in news and
feature writing. During that
time, Ellen and Art worked
together on a Wisconsin/
Nicaragua Partners of the
Americas educational project
for poultry farmers in Nica-
ragua that included writing a
book in English, Spanish and
Miskito, as well as helping
to build an educational radio
station. The project served
as the basis for Ellens M.S.
degree from the University,
Cosmetology. Her early
years were spent as a nanny
for several prominent doc-
tors families in the Maple
Bluff/Shorewood Hills areas.
She met the love of her
life, Edgar B. Lingard, and
was united in marriage on
Jan. 20, 1943. They were
married for 65 years. She and
Edgar worked in Madison
before moving to the family
farm in Springdale township.
Clara was a homemaker/
mother and later went back
to school to be a cosmetolo-
gist/instructor. She worked
for Leonard Shore Salons in
Madison, sharing her skills in
competitions in Milwaukee
and Minneapolis; MyLadys
Beauty Shop, Mount Horeb;
and Dane County Home
West beauty shop, Verona.
She belonged to several cos-
metology memberships from
student, stylist, manager and
instructor.
She belonged to the
McPherson PTA, Zwing-
li UCC and Salem Guilds.
Later she got her real estate
broker license along with her
husband, Edgar. She loved to
golf, travel and play with her
granddaughter. She was the
Obituaries
Ellen Maurer
which she earned in 1981.
Art and Ellen remained
involved in the Wisconsin/
Nicaragua Partners of Amer-
ica program for the rest of
their lives.
In 1984, they returned to
the Philippines when Ellen
was offered a visiting editor
position at the International
Rice Research Institute. She
produced an award-winning
annual report and taught
writing and other commu-
nications skills to IRRI
researchers.
Back in Madison, Ellen
resumed teaching but also
continued her international
work. From 1986 for four
years, between semesters,
she traveled to Liberia, Ivo-
ry Coast, Senegal and Sierra
Leone to interview scientists
and photograph their work
to produce annual reports for
the West Africa Rice Devel-
opment Association. In 1990,
The Gambias Secretary of
Agriculture invited her to
produce a publication on
their agricultural research.
From 1991 to 1995, Ellen
served as communications
director of a USAID-funded
global Environmental Policy
and Training project, where
she produced more than 50
publications for distribution
to governments through-
out the world. In 1996, she
became the communications
director for the UW Land
Tenure Center planning ways
to reach developing coun-
tries about land issues. She
worked as a science writer/
editor/photographer in 14
countries.
In 1995, she returned to
the College of Agricultural
and Life Sciences as a senior
university relations specialist
life of the party, still had time
to hold down the farm and
have a hot meal on the table
when day was done.
She is survived by her
daughter, Patricia (Kenny)
Anderson of Verona; grand-
daughter, Ginger of Verona;
step-granddaughter, Samone
Anderson of Scandinavia,
Wis.; three step-great-grand-
children, Lynnette (and
step great-great-grandchild,
Anthony of Texas), Sgt.
Ricardo Cody Anderson
of Verona and Rosey Ander-
son Sanchez of Iola; a special
goddaughter, Diana (Steve)
Halverson and their daugh-
ters, Aleta and Brianna. Clara
is also survived by several
nieces, nephews, other rela-
tives and friends.
She was preceded in death
by her husband, Edgar (May
25, 2008), her parents; broth-
ers, Alfred Jr. and Ernest
(Cecilia); sisters, Mary
(John) Luthi and Klara Lehn-
herr (age 3) who passed at
Ellis Island, New York.
Clara will always be
remembered for her feisty
attitude letting nothing put
her down. Not even total
paralysis from polio in 1952
to develop information cam-
paigns for the college, pro-
spective students, alumni,
stakeholders and the gener-
al public. She loved brain-
storming new ideas for news
stories, events, exhibits and
publications. She excelled at
the job, which she continued
until her retirement in 2005.
She received many awards
for her work, including her
international profession-
al groups highest award
in 1996, the International
Award of Excellence. She
also received the Colleges
Academic Staff Service
Award in 2005. During these
years she was a 4-H lead-
er and a Girl Scout leader
simultaneously for eight
years.
The mid-1990s brought
two life-shattering events. In
1995 she was diagnosed with
breast cancer. In 1998, after
32 years of marriage, Art
Maurer died suddenly from
cardiac arrest.
In the 1970s, Ellen and
Art had joined a gourmet
group that also included Pat
and Ken Pippert. Ellen and
Pat had chemo at the same
time, but Pat died in 1995.
Eight years later, Ellen and
Ken discovered sparks! They
were married May 10, 2003.
Together, Ellen and Ken
enjoyed Februarys in Florida,
a hot air balloon ride, travel
in Spain, Portugal and Ger-
many, and a week at a villa
in Tuscany with the gourmet
group. In addition to hosting
and visiting their six children
and 11 grandchildren, they
volunteered at Sugar Creek
Elementary School in Vero-
na, gardened at home and
spent much of their summers
canoeing, hiking and fishing
at their lake cottage in Onei-
da County.
Ellen also authored three
books on family histo-
ry, Allbeck Genealogy,
Snicklefritz and Adven-
ture in Panama. She also
taught a Reminiscence Writ-
ing PLATO class at Capitol
Lakes retirement center for
11 years and joined a Deans
committee to record the his-
tory of the College of Agri-
cultural and Life Science.
Ellen is survived by daugh-
ter, Minda Maurer of McFar-
land and son Brant Maurer
with the help of chiroprac-
tic Dr. C. S Gonstead. In
her spare time, she took
care of her granddaughter,
tended her flower/vegetable
gardens, played softball for
Pabst Farms girls softball
team (known for her special
lefty bunting/batting style),
golfing and caring for others
when they needed it. Edgar
always called her Tuffy for
her 52 stature.
Funeral services were held
Saturday, June 17, 2017,
at Salem United Church of
Christ, 507 Mark Dr., Vero-
na, with the Rev. Dr. Mark
Yurs officiating. A lunch was
held at the church following
burial at the Verona Ceme-
tery. Visitation was Friday,
