hats worse than being the guy who hits a six-
inch deep pothole going 50? Worse is being
the guy in charge of fixing them. All of them.
By tomorrow.
That guy in Vineland is Bob Garcia, the frank and
lively director of public works, whos also, incidentally,
in charge of plowing the snow. (Another job people are
always happy with.)
No matter. Garcia is a Vietnam combat veteran and
long-time road department employee who doesn't
seem prone to self-doubt. (His bearing reminded me of
the Incredible Hulk and hes only about five-seven.)
During my 90-minute visit, he responded to four radio
requests, three phone calls, and seven knocks on his door.
From the interactions I assessed that hes way in charge.
He made an analogy between fixing potholes and
capping teeth.
First you cut out all the debris in the hole during
base prep work, then put in some temporary cold
patch, which works in any weather. Smooth it and
tamp it down with shovels. (They also run it over with
a truck and the analogy breaks down some there.)
When conditions are right, you go back and apply a
permanent hot patch.
If that doesnt work, you go back and use concrete,
kind of like setting an implant. The concrete fix is a
new technique and Garcia used it the first time at
Chestnut and West avenues after traditional methods
didnt work.
We fixed a big one there and then I returned the
next day and the hole was back, he said. So we used
the tough stuff; we have to think outside the box now.
Garcia cited the age of many roads in the city as an
aggravating factor in his efforts to defeat the pothole
army. He said you can expect a road to last 10 to 15

Mirror Imagery
Landis short story offers parallels between the setting in Mexico and
Landis vision of Vineland.
W
hen Charles K. Landis
adjusted historical facts
surrounding the protago-
nist of his 1894 short story
Carabajal, The Jew A Legend of
Monterey Mexico, he not only facilitated
the narratives flow but also established
an uncanny kinship between himself and
his subject.
Landis credits the success of
Carabajals New Leon settlement to the
principles applied in building the colony.
If we examine these guidelines found in
the alleged source manuscripts discussed
in the Appendix, we discover they include
agricultural and manufacturing develop-
ment, the educational and the aesthet-
ic, the establishment of free libraries,
and wide and spacious roads planted
with rows of beautiful trees of different
varieties so that they can attract birds
which are essential in the cultivation of
fruits by destroying insect enemies.
Houses, were told, should be set back a
certain distance from the roadside, and
thus afford room for flowers and shrub-
bery. And it is stipulated that the founder
should provide access to markets for the
sale of agricultural and manufactured
products and see that the inexperienced
colonists should not fall into the hands of
dishonest consigners or commission men,
and in this way be robbed of their toil.
Interestingly, in Landiss written
account of his founding of Vineland, he
tells us that the development of the best
of schools and different industries was
part of the design and that, for agricultur-
al concerns, I wanted land more suitable
to fruit than to grain. In addition to
eventually establishing a free library,
Vineland would create roads like Landis,
Chestnut and Park Avenues to be 100 feet
wideall lined with a double row of
shade trees. Homes were to be set
backat least twenty-five feet in order to
afford room for flowers and shrubbery
and shade trees should be planted along
the entire frontto afford a harbor for
birds, which I regard as all important as
against insect enemies in the fruit coun-
try. Train access to Philadelphia was
available for farmers and manufacturers
from the start, but a short-lived local
enterprise was also established to connect
Vineland with New York City.
As for consigners and commission
men, a February 23, 1891 Landis journal
entry reads: Sent my law to the Governor
for the protection of the farmers and fruit
growers from being defrauded. On
October 18, 1895, a year after the publica-
tion of Carabajal, he writes: I have
endeavored to protect the farmers against
the robberies of the Commission men and
many of our local politicians are commis-
sion men. This largely accounts for it. I
have also endeavored to establish a public
market. The shop-keepers, green grocers
are opposed to and many are local politi-
cians so that upon the whole they have
decreed that I am a dangerous character.
The parallels cannot be coincidental
and, even with additional details and reg-
ulations added to serve the Mexican cul-
ture, the tale becomes a sort of allegory of
Vinelands founding. Louis Harap, in his
book The Image of the Jew in American
Literature: From Early Republic to Mass
Immigration, comments on the direct
connection between the New Spain
colony and the city Landis established in
1861: Landis quotes from what he says is
Carabajals manuscript, in which the aims
of the colony were set forth, much as
Landis himself had done for Vineland.
The venture, says the manuscript, should
not be in a mere mercantile spirit, but
rather more in a parental spirit.
Development of the colony should be
both agricultural and industrial, educa-
tional and aesthetic. There should be free
libraries, lectures, intellectual entertain-
ments, dancing, calisthenics, and music.
Indeed, the likeness between the princi-
ples attributed to Carabajal and those that
governed Landiss conception of
Vineland is unmistakable.
If we choose to read the short story as
allegory or parable, the connections
might paint Landis as a misunderstood
visionary and a threat to local politicians.
Landis was forced to watch as his power
was stripped and his role diminished so
that, by the 1990s, his unflagging work for
the betterment of Vineland was void of
town support.
Word has it that Landiss short story
may be republished. If thats the case, the
new edition will be the first in 120 years.
If it happens, you might want to grab a
copy, read it and determine for yourself
how much of Landis might exist in the
figure of Carabajal. I

Does and Donts
{ BY PAUL J. DOE, FORMER EDITOR, CUMBERLAND NEWS }
Reilly
Remembered
I
still buy the Philadelphia Inquirer
every Sunday. But these days I buy
it for the crosswords.
There was a time though, through
the 80s and into the 90s, when I bought
the Inquirer because it was probably the
best paper in the country.
It seemed every day, and certainly
always on Sunday, I would read something
in that paper and say, wish Id written
that.
I thought of that last week when I got
the news that Fran Reilly had passed.
Fran was what those of us who labor
over prose call a wordsmith. Thats an
invented word some clever wordsmith
came up with to distinguish those people
who work with words the same way some
craftsmen worked with gold or silver.
That was the gift that Fran had; take a
pile of words and make a reader mad or
glad or just scratch their head and wonder.
He and I rarely saw eye to eye on any-
thing particularly politics but I would
still often find myself reading his column
and wishing Id written that.
He just had that rare knack of-putting
the right words in the right places.
A little known fact about Frans writing
career is that it started at my old newspa-
per, the Cumberland News.
As I recall, a mutual friend introduced
the two of us after Fran returned from the
West Coast.
The friend suggested that we might be
able to help one another out. Fran was
looking for work and I was looking for
salespeople.
As it turned out Fran wasnt interested
in selling, but he was looking to reestab-
lish himself in the area.
At the time I had a couple of local writ-
ers, Marvin Pearl and John Serra, but I
always believed there was room for more.
Fran came up with the name for the
column, Wryly Writ, and as I remember,
actually might have copyrighted it.
I think I may have wanted him to call it
the Life of Reilly or something equally
benign.
The column was a big hit right from
the start, because it did exactly what good
columns are supposed to do: it got people
talking and thinking.
Particularly his bastard column.
Old timers might remember that column.
It sure did get people talking.
They called a special meeting of the
city council to discuss it and there was
even some talk of picketing the
Cumberland News offices in protest.
I dont have the Cumberland News
archives (nobody does, actually), but as I
recall the column, it was about the fact
that Cumberland County was leading the
state in a couple of not-very-nice statistics:
teen pregnancy and high-school dropouts.
Fran used the word bastard about a
hundred times in the column to make a
point.
Some people got it, but a lot didnt.
Like I said, there was talk of picketing
and boycotting the paper and lots of
unkind words were spoken.
Fran never backed down.
People took a closer look at the column
and read it the way it was intended.
And the problem went away.
He probably couldnt have written that
column today and, truth be told, I proba-
bly wouldnt have the guts to print it.
But those were simpler times.
Actually, the only bad thing that result-
ed from that column, was that Fran
became such a popular writer that the
local daily hired him away from me.
Fran handled that with class though.
He told me when they approached him
and told me what they offered him.
He even and this is the class part
asked me what I thought he should do.
I told him if they made me that same
offer Id take it.
Fran and I never really had a falling
out, but when he was running then-Mayor
Barses campaign in 2004 and I was run-
ning the campaign of (now) Mayor
Bermudez, I released a story to the papers
about an expensive public relations lunch
Fran hosted at the Citys expense.
That was the last time Fran and I
spoke.
Over the years I would see him at
events but wed only nod at one another.
I just wish Id told him how much I
liked some not all, but many of his
columns and how often hed made me say,
wish Id written that. I
Francis Reilly passed away on Wednesday,
February 26, 2014. His obituary appears on

Jersey community bank owned by hundreds
of local stockholders, has announced its
2013 earnings. The bank reported a net

commented, It is a pleasure to be able to

time Capital Bank paid a cash dividend, at
which time the bank
had just reached its

dend will be payable
on April 23, 2014 (the
seventh anniversary
of the banks first day
in business) to stock-

Dominic J. Romano, Chairman of the

Vineland Rotary Inducts Two New Members
The Rotary Club of Vineland is bucking the trend of dwindling membership
rolls plaguing service clubs nationwide. At its October 29 membership luncheon,
held at the Ramada of Vineland, two new members were installed, bringing the
clubs membership to 90 strong. The Vineland Club is the second oldest and sec-
ond largest in Rotary District 7640 (southern New Jersey).
Longtime Rotarian Dave Schad recruited new member Antony Thomas, Vice
President of PNC Bank in Vineland. Criag Applebaum recruited Ronald K
Brownlee Sr., President / CEO & Wealth Advisor of RKB Wealth Management Ltd.
powered by LPL Financial.
The induction ceremony was officiated by past President Ted Lane, who
explained that Rotarians provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical
standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. As sig-
nified by the motto Service Above Self, Rotarys main objective is service, both in
the community and in the workplace. Just before swearing in Brownlee and
Thomas, Lane advised them, You will get out of Rotary what you put into it.
The Rotary Club of Vineland meets on Tuesdays, at 12:10 p.m. at the Vineland
Ramada Inn. For more information, visit www.vinelandrotary.com or e-mail the
club at info@vinelandrotary.com.

Dr. Charles Dietzek Expands Vein & Vascular
Board certified vascular surgeon Dr. Charles
Dietzek has been treating patients who suffer
from varicose veins, spider veins and all forms of
venous disease for more than two decades. He
was a faculty member and the Chief of Vascular
Surgery at the University of Medicine and
Dentistry of New Jersey-School of Osteopathic
Medicine until 2005 when he founded his Vein &
Vascular Institute, which just celebrated a mas-
sive expansion and move to a new Voorhees loca-
tion.
As the practice continues to soar, Dr. Dietzek
increased his capacity, doubling the number of
exam rooms, procedure rooms and labs. The
expansion was necessary to keep pace with the
influx of patients seeking his expertise. It also
provides patients much more convenience and
the ability to have their venous issues treated in a
timely manner. In many cases, patients are able
to be treated on the spot and leave with absolutely no downtime.
The Vein & Vascular Institute of Vineland is located at 2950 College Drive and can
be reached by calling 856-309-9777. Visit www.veinvascular.com for more details.
Downtown Vineland { BY GARY HOLLOWAY,
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, VDID / MAINSTREET VINELAND }
I
Did YouKnow...
Kura Thai
A fourth installment of a new series of columns to
familiarize you with downtown businesses invites
us to indulge in Thai cuisine.
D
id you know that downtown
Vineland has a variety of
places to eat that offer food
from a wide range of cultures?
Lets take a look at Kura Thai and Sushi,
at 607 E. Landis Avenue and let owner
Cindy Chen tell you more:
I opened Kura Thai and Sushi in
January of last year. It was called Kawa
Thai and Sushi then just like the similar
restaurant in Millville, which opened in
2008. I worked in that restaurant, but
because of inquiries and requests from cus-
tomers from Vineland who wanted a second
location, I opened my restaurant in
Vineland.
I recently changed the name, but not the
focus on quality food. Our cuisine is pre-
pared with market-fresh meats and vegeta-
bles. Pure vegetable oil is used in the cook-
ing to bring out the true flavor of our dish-
es, which range from traditional to modern
recipes. Japanese and Thai menu items
include appetizers, sushi, as well as chick-
en, beef, pork, curry, and seafood dishes,
and desserts. Some of our popular dishes
include yellow curry chicken, Bangkok
spicy chicken, chicken teriyaki, and Kura
sushi roll.
We serve lunch and dinner and our food
is served in an intimate dining atmosphere
with an ambiance that matches the Eastern
charm of the cuisine. We also offer delivery
service. Our back room, featuring a rear
entrance, is available for business lunches,
private parties, baby showers, and other
functions.
Im happy to have this opportunity in
Vineland and to contribute to making
downtown Vineland a place to come to eat,
have a good time, and enjoy yourself.
Cindy Chen I

years before there are problems, but many
of the citys roads are 40 years old or
more. There have been some significant
repaving projects recently, but the 260
miles of roads here dwarfs any effort to
win the pothole war.
He told me a big reason potholes persist
is that so many are unknown. Other factors
include low temperatures, frozen water
inside the holes, and their locations.
856-794-4250. Call me. Call by 2:30 in
the afternoon and it'll be filled the same
day, unless it's an unusual case, he said.
Garcia tries to approach the problem
scientifically in his quest for the best
materials (currently something called
QPR sticky patch), scheduling of the
work, and follow-up.
It takes a lot of time and a lot of
knowledge and its hard work. Garcia
said. It cant be a guy with a shovel chew-
ing grass standing next to the road.

Department doesnt have to worry about
having a guy with a shovel, chewing grass
or not. It has the
Dura Max, a big,
Transformer-like
piece of equipment
that looks like it
could as easily
knock over a car as
fill a pothole.
Donald Olbrich,
the cordial and
detail-minded
director of public works and property, said
Cumberland is the only county in the state
he knows of deploying the machine, made
by Mississippi-based Dura Patcher.
The process is called spray injection
and with proper temperatures it is a per-
manent repair to potholes, he said. The
actual repair will probably outlast the bal-
ance of the pavement.
Its a one-person operation and he

NOMINATE THE RUTTIEST
Since Laurel Road (near
Giampetro Park) has been paved,
the distinction of being the ruttiest
road in Vineland is open to competi-
tion. In the spirit of the Academy
Awards, my nomination is Becker
Drive, which runs from Maple
Avenue to Oak Road, east of Main
Road.
If you want to nominate a ruttier
road, please email me. A panel of
judges with very old cars will deter-
mine the winner.

For county roads,

likely respond.

operates everything from inside the truck.
He controls air pressure, the generator,
the amount of emulsion and aggregate it
dispenses, right from the drivers seat.
Olbrich added.
Ben Plevinsky, the sole operator of the
device, has filled as many as 90 potholes a
day, according to Olbrich, who also
claimed the patcher has now more than
covered its $180,000 cost and continues to
save taxpayer money in labor and materi-
al. Olbrich has also rented the Dura Max
(and Ben) to some municipalities.
Does the county have the same prob-
lem finding potholes? Yes, but Olbrich
said, in addition to taking calls from the
public, all road department supervisors
have a GPS switch in their cars which,
when activated, marks the location where
they saw a pothole. Theres also an app
anyone can download and use called
report2gov linked to Olbrichs office for
county roads only. (See boxed list below).
The Dura Max, however, cant defy
nature, despite its appearance.
Weve had to go with traditional cold
patch a lot, Olbrich said. With the zero
degree temperatures and our 550 miles of
road, its become and continues to be a
very challenging year. I

WHAT IS A POTHOLE, ANYWAY?
Potholes form slowly from a com-
bination of weather, moisture, and
traffic.
If a small crack forms in the
roadway, water can trickle through
and saturate the ground beneath.
The moist soil freezes, it expands,
pushes upward against the roadbed,
and can cause fissures. As it thaws,
it contracts and sinks, but the
roadbed doesn't, causing voids,
which lead in some cases to
roadbed collapse.
The rapid freeze and thaw cycles
in winters like these, accelerate and
exacerbate the process. (I probably
didn't have to tell you that). The
weight of vehicles passing over the
weakened point does further dam-
age, as do snowplows. Over time,
the road surface will crack and
break apart, sinking enough to open
a hole.
The name originated in England
in the 15th century. Pottery makers
then would take advantage of ruts in
the road carved by wagon wheels by
digging out the clay deposits under-
neath. Teamsters driving wagons
and coaches knew who and what
caused the deep holes and called
them potholes.
(Good, you also learned where
teamster came from.)

Guest Column { BY ROBERT SCARPA, EXECUTIVE
DIRECTOR, CUMBERLAND COUNTY HABITAT FOR HUMANITY }
I
A
s you read this article, 34 stu-
dents and faculty from Cardinal
Stritch University are enjoying
their Spring Break here in
Cumberland County. (Dont worry, they
didnt come with dirty laundry.) They
traveled over 900 miles from their
Milwaukee-based college to come fellow-
ship with us here in Cumberland County.
Who knew that we were such a desired
Spring Break destination?
So why here? Why now? Simply put,
they are here to serve. They, along with
hundreds of other college students across
the nation, choose to forego the tradition-
al Spring Break and participate in Habitat
for Humanitys Collegiate Challenge.
Through the program, college groups trav-
el to host affiliates and spend a week
working on various construction projects
currently underway. This Spring, over
9,000 college students representing more
than 350 schools will visit 135 Habitat
affiliates across America. Since the pro-
gram was created 25 years ago, nore than
200,000 students have participated and
have helped build thousands of homes for
deserving families. These groups help
prove the programs motto that One
Week Can Change a Life Forever.
As it turns out, Cumberland County
has turned out to be quite the desired
location this year. In additional to
Cardinal Stritch University, our affiliate
was selected as the Spring Break location
for Providence College of Rhode Island,
Wilson College, and the University of
Delaware. Together, these schools repre-
sent more than 90 participants and over
3,000 hours of donated labor to help our
affiliate. When you add in the Winter
Break visits we received from Washington
College (MD), St. Anselm College (NH),
and Colgate University (NY), we will have
received over 4,000 hours of volunteer
service from visiting college groups this
year. Not bad Id say. Not bad at all.
So how do we host 90+ college stu-
dents over Spring Break? Good question.
Simple answer, lots of food! It is actually a
bit more complicated than that, although
yes, they do tend to eat a lot. It works as
follows: Each student makes a donation to
our organization to participate in the trip.
Some colleges help offset the cost of the
trip, but the students are primarily
responsible for raising the funds to travel
here. In exchange, they receive a place to
stay and three meals a day. We also try to
provide some local entertainment for the
groups as part of their visitkaraoke night
at Fuel House Coffee Co., a night of bil-
liards at Q-Ball, a visit to our local YMCA
(the hot tub seems to be pretty popular for
our guests), visits to area waterparks, and
evening jaunts to the Atlantic City board-
walk or Philadelphia for an authentic
Philly cheesesteak are some past forms of
entertainment we have provided. Who
knows, perhaps a night at the drive-in
would be an opportunity for our visitors
who have never seen such a venue.
The positive effect left by these groups
this Spring will surpass the boundaries of
our affiliate. Dont get me wrong, building
houses they will do, but it is our hope to
connect these amazing students, and their
volunteer service, to other needy causes in
our own backyard. Visiting students can
expect to learn a bit more about
Hurricane Sandy first-hand when they
spend some time working with the Long-
Term Recovery Group based out of the
Bayshore Center in Port Norris. This
group is helping those affected by
Hurricane Sandy along the Delaware Bay.
Much of the national attention (and fund-
ing) never made it down to this area of the
State. We are thankful for the opportunity
to partner with this group to help restore
some sense of normalcy to this area of our
state. We are hopeful that, weather per-
mitting, our visiting groups will also help
prepare the A.J. Meerwald for the 2014
sailing season. We are fortunate to have
New Jerseys Official Tall Ship housed
right here in Cumberland County. Plans
are also underway to help repair
Vinelands First House located at the
Vineland Historical Society. It is relation-
ships such as these that can only strength-
en our community while allowing us to
introduce our visitors to our community
beyond Habitat for Humanity. I

Cold War Relic
AThing of the Past
{ BY ADRIENNE POSSENTI }
A bomb shelter, right here in Vineland?
W
ithout a second glance,
most of us pass by the offi-
cial U.S. fallout shelter sign
bolted to the bricks above a
storefront on Landis Avenue. My husband
Edward pointed the sign out to me when
we were first married, 35 years ago. He said
that was the only one he knew of remaining
on the main street of his hometown. Ed
was born in Vineland and has spent his
entire life here. Although the shelters were
designed to protect occupants from the
radioactive debris of a nuclear explosion,
Eds childhood imagination ran rampant
with worry about atomic bombs. Of major
concern were the living conditions in a fall-
out shelter. He certainly didnt want harm
to come to his family, yet he was insecure
about the complete safety a fallout shelter
might provide. Reading science fiction
comic book stories about nuclear attacks
only helped increase childhood paranoia.
Those under age 40 may not realize
that the United States and other non-com-
munist countries saw the Cold War as a
great threat to world peace, democracy
and security in the two post-World War II
decades. Today, fallout shelters are consid-
ered a relic of the Cold War, a time in his-
tory when the two greatest powers of the
worldthe United States and the Soviet
Unionthreatened to annihilate each
other. Our government encouraged
Americans to build shelters that were well
stocked with everyday supplies necessary
for human existence. It was advised to
remain in the shelter indefinitely if the
bomb was dropped. One of the primary
means of protection from nuclear radiation
was to stay sequestered until radioactive
exposure reached a level that was safe for
human survival.
Fast forward to the 21st century and
Eds 60th birthday when I stopped into
the place of business under the shelter
symbol to inquire about permission to
remove it. It would be a cool surprise
birthday gift to give Ed. He could hang it
outside the door of his man cave, other-
wise known as our garage.
Management said I could have the sign
if I could take it down. With the help of a
school maintenance man friend, Mr.
Rosado, I was confident that soon Ed
would be the proud owner of a vintage fall-
out shelter sign. After work one afternoon
Mr. Rosado and I met at the site. He
brought his stepladder and toolbox. If any-
one could remove that sign, it was Mr.
Rosado. He struggled with the bolts, used
every wrench he had, nothing would
budge. That sign was mounted to with-
stand anything, probably even a nuclear
attack. I left empty-handed.
Recently, I re-visited the place of busi-
ness under the fallout shelter sign to find
out if any changes had occurred to the
basement space. The yellow and black col-
ors of a placard that was once a harbinger
of rescue are now faded into the brick
exterior and seem to disappear.
Inside, I asked to speak to the person in
charge. Maria, Assistant Director of the
facility, was eager to share the information
she knew about the old shelter. To my
delight, she asked if I would like to see the
decommissioned shelter again. This time I
paid close attention to details, although
there are few. The steep wooden steps lead
to a basement that is a cold, dark, dank,
empty, cavernous room. The floor is con-
crete. Walls are constructed of a combina-
tion of red brick, cinder block, and con-
crete and stone, all girded with steel sup-
port beams. Looking up, the bricks that
serve as the bottom of the upstairs floor
are visible and they form the ceiling of the
shelter. Other than pipes, old and new
electrical panels, and a discarded comput-
er monitor, there isnt much to see in the
basement shelter. The atmosphere, though,
has a strong sense of the past.
Maria and I had a long, friendly chat.
She has a Masters Degree in Human
Services from Lincoln University,
Pennsylvania, and has worked in this
Landis Avenue building for 20 years. She is
a New Jersey certified Alcohol and Drug
Counselor. She said the underground space
was converted to a storage area following
the shelters decommission. She doesnt
know when that conversion took place or
when the room was eventually emptied of
its contents. She mentioned that she
remembers several years ago a woman
asked if she could have the sign above the
door. Laughing, I confessed to being that
woman. I told her of my failed attempt at
detachment and how disappointed I was
that the sign was not movable. I

fallout shelter address will be published in

On His Birthday
March 5, 1946April 29, 2010
A loving husband, father, brother, Pop
Pop, friend...
You are sadly missed every day, espe-
cially on your birthday.
Despite the sorrow caused by your
absence, memories of your good humor
still bring smiles to the faces of those

too short.
Youll stay in our hearts and on our minds forever.

In Loving Memory of Michael J. Mesiano
March 9, 1967 January 31, 2011
Miss you, miss you, miss you;
Everything we do echoes with the laughter
And the voice of you.
Youre on every corner, every turn and
twist,
Every old familiar spot whispers
How youre missed.
Michael is loved and missed by
his family and friends,
especially his nephews
Nicholas & Tom, who share
the same birthday, March 9th.
So many great times at the shore with
you, and building things in the chick-
en coop. You made everything an
adventure. Missing you.
Love,
Nicholas
One of the many great moments we
shared. You were more like a brother
to me than an uncle. You will always
be missed.
Love,
Tommy

Francis J. Reilly, 70
Francis Joseph Reilly, 70, passed away
on Wednesday, February 26 with his
wife Bonnie at his side. Born and
raised in Vineland, Fran was a 1961
graduate of Sacred Heart High School
and received his Bachelor of Arts from
St. Josephs University in 1965.
Fran began his business career in
real estate in 1966 and in 1971, estab-
lished his own agency, FJ Reilly Real
Estate. In 1974 he was President of the
Cumberland County Board of Realtors
and served as State Director of the
New Jersey Association of Realtors. He
relocated to Lake Tahoe, Calif., where
he worked as a sports columnist and
later moved to San Diego where he
worked for the San Diego Sockers pro-
fessional soccer club. Returning to
Vineland in 1988, Fran began work as a
political consultant and founded his
own public relations firm, FJ Reilly
Communications, Inc. in 1989.
Active in a variety of community
leadership positions, Fran has served
as Chairman of the Bridgeton Historic
District Commission, Economic
Development Director for the City of
Vineland, and as a board member of
the South Jersey Economic
Development District, Vineland
Downtown Improvement District, the
Vineland Industrial Commission and
the Landis Sewage Authority. He also
proudly served eight years as a mem-
ber of the Cumberland County College
board of trustees including two years
as president. In 1996 Reilly established
his brainchild, the CEO Group, CEO
standing for Community Education
Opportunity. Reillys vision organized
local business owners in a non-profit
corporation to influence government
for the better, mount charitable efforts
and generally improve quality of life.
Business and community involve-
ment aside, Reillys true professional
passion was his writing. Since the early
1990s he has shared his wit, humor
and frequently controversial opinions in
his widely read weekly column Wryly
Writ. In hundreds of columns Reilly
brilliantly shared his views on life, family,
politics and more in the Cumberland
News and Daily Journal, and he relished
meeting his weekly deadline and eagerly
awaiting responses from supporters
and critics alike.
Although known by many solely for
his business and writing, Fran Reilly
was embraced by those closest to him
as a devoted friend, husband, father,
son, brother, grandfather, cousin, uncle.
He is survived by his wife of 20 years,
Bonnie Zappariello-Reilly. Fran and
Bonnie met in the first grade and were
friends through high school and beyond
before reuniting in 1988 and marrying
in 1993. For 50 years he poured out
love and support for his three children,
and he treasured his time as a proud
grandfather to his three grandsons.
Fran was an avid reader and a fan of
blues and jazz, which he often used for
inspiration while writing. He enjoyed
golfing, especially on Sunday mornings,
sparring with his many word game
opponents and rooting for his
Philadelphia sports teams, but no mat-
ter what was occupying his time, he
was always developing and fostering
relationships and looking for ways that
he could help his fellow man.
Fran Reilly was predeceased by his
parents Charles V. Reilly, Sr. and
Donata M. Reilly, and brothers Charles
V. Reilly, Jr. and Thomas A. Reilly.
Survivors include his wife Bonnie
Zappariello-Reilly of Vineland, son and
daughter-in-law Daniel C. and Nancy L.
Reilly of Ledyard CT, daughters Susan
M. Reilly of Kissimmee FL and
Katherine F. Reilly of Portland ME, sis-
ter and brother-in-law Ann Marie and
Vito Fantini of Upper Deerfield
Township, grandsons Jeffrey D. Reilly,
LTJG, USN of Groton CT, Christopher
C. Reilly, LTJG, USN of Kailua HI and
Alexander J. Reilly of Ledyard CT,
nieces and nephews Maria Fantini,
Anthony (Dana) Fantini, Paul (Karen)
Fantini, Barbara (Gary) Schneider,
David Reilly, Stephen (Emily) Reilly,
Sarah Reilly and Amy Jett, many
cousins and eighteen grand-nieces and
nephews.
A Mass of Christian Burial was held
on Monday, March 3 at Christ The
Good Shepherd Parish Church Of
Saint Isidore The Farmer in Vineland.
Afterwards, Reilly was buried at Sacred
Heart Cemetery.
Memorial contributions in memory
of Fran Reilly can be made to: CEO
Group Educational Fund, 700 East
Wood St., Vineland NJ 08360.
Contributions will be used to establish
a CEO Group scholarship in Fran's
memory.

unusual crops like peanuts, okra, and

bread, or a glass of homemade wine.
Kathleen L. Kathy Exel, 57, of
Rosenhayn, passed away on February
3. Born in Bridgeton, she was a life-
long resident of Rosenhayn. Kathy was
a graduate of Vineland High School
and the Cumberland County TEC for

member of the Rosenhayn United

he Greater Vineland Chamber of
Commerce held its General
Membership Luncheon on
Thursday, February 20, at The Greenview
Inn at Eastlyn.
Guest speaker was David Callahan of
Townsquare Media, which he claims is
the third largest media company in the
nation. To start off his presentation, he
provided each business owner with a
page comparing their website with a pos-
sible mobile version. He later noted that
currently, just 10 percent have a mobile
version of their websites. He predicted
this will change, however, since texting is
more effective than e-mail, based on per-
centage response rate.
Townsquare owns mainly radio
stations, but the company realized a
couple years ago that there is
money to be made in websites,
which set them on a new path to
create websites for businesses. With
the rapidly changing technology
that surround us, their offer
includes migrating the product to
the newest and best platform for
no additional charge.
For example, a change that has
occurred in the past few years: It
used to be that your business name was
the most important thing on your web-
site. Now that Google has moved to local
searches, its your physical address.
Describing Facebook
sharing as word of mouth
on steroids, Callahan
noted that 85 percent of
searches are for local busi-
nesses and that for 93 per-
cent of people, the buying
process starts with a search
engine. Nearly 75 percent
search on Google, and 94
percent dont go past the
first page.
Callahan emphasized
building brand recognition even if your
business is on the first page of Google
ranking.
He also discussed reputation manage-
ment. A bad review, he said, can be taken
down only by the person who put it
there, so businesses need to address bad
reviews right away by contacting the
reviewer and offering something in
return for taking the review down. The
key is how you measure up against the
competition, he stressed.
The GVCC thanks sponsors of the
eventComcast, Inspira Health Network,
Marketing American Businesses,
Newfield Bank, and Vineland Municipal
Electric & Water Utility.

The GVCC works on behalf of our

policy that ensures the business commu-
nity has the resources, infrastructure,
and opportunities to keep our regions
economy strong and growing. The
GVCC Legislative Committee wants

lation that may affect your business:
This is a list of bills recently signed into law that may interest you:

GVCC GREEN CORNER
The Chambers Green Initiatives
Committee is focused on educating
our membership on opportunities,
issues and general information regard-
ing environmentally friendly practices.
The Chambers Green Initiatives
Committee would like to know about
green energy and practices your busi-
ness or organization has engaged in
that have helped your company pros-
per. E-mail us at
info@vinelandchamber.org, or call us
at 856-691-7400.
At our recent Green Initiatives
Committee meeting in February, we
discussed the FDAs examination of
antibacterial soaps. These products
contain Triclosan. The committee
thought you may find this interesting:
Triclosan is found in many different
antibacterial and antifungal products
on today's market. It is popular in
hand soaps, face washes, toothpaste
and is sometimes used in Microban
products.Triclosan does not degrade at
a very fast rate and has been found at
the bottom of lakes and in sewage.
Triclosan has been found to kill up
to 99.6 percent of bacterial, even after
hands and body parts have been dried
completely.
Because of statistics like the above,
many individuals are using products
with the ingredient Triclosan, but
recent information shows that
Triclosan may be harmful to more
than just the environment; it may be
harmful to the human body as well
and the USFDA is re-evaluating the
safety of Triclosan in common every-
day products.
According to writer Jake
Richardson (Healthy & Green Living,
Care2.com), Old Spice Deodorant
Stick, Fresh, is rated a 4 on a scale of
1 to 10, indicating a moderate hazard
level (a rating of 10 is the most haz-
ardous). The reason this deodorant is
considered to be hazardous is
because it contains the active ingredi-
ent Triclosan. The USFDA is currently
reviewing Triclosan. Triclosan has
been linked with cancer, abnormalities
with the endocrine system, weakening
of the immune system, birth defects,
uncontrolled cell growth and
unhealthy weight loss.
Most consumers would be sur-
prised to discover that Triclosan can
be found in several products, including
deodorants, antibacterial soaps, tooth-
pastes, cosmetics, children's toys and
other products, personal care prod-
ucts, paints, furniture and more. In
March 2010, the European Union
banned this chemical from all prod-
ucts that come into contact with food,
such as containers and silverware.

Motorsports Park Buys
Field of Dreams Land
In a major development for the
regions off-road enthusiasts, New
Jersey Motorsports Park has made
a land purchase for the planned
Field of Dreams off-road park
from the city of Millville.
We have been working on this
project for so long, and to finally
see if coming to fruition is just a
phenomenal feat and unbelievable
feeling, said Clayton Keeler, Field
of Dreams managing partner. All
of the pieces of the puzzle are
finally coming together and we
are extremely excited to work with
NJMP and create a facility like
none other,
A total of four professionally
designed and built tracks will
make up the facility, to be located
on Buckshutem Road in Millville,
including a smaller course for
younger and inexperienced riders,
and the largest for participants
with the most experience on two
and four wheels.
Among the planned tracks, a
straight rhythm course designed
for amateur riders will set Field of
Dreams apart.
Red Bull recently created a
Straight Rhythm Track for its pro
racers that was simply a half-mile
straightaway; truly innovative to
the sport, Field of Dreams gener-
al manager Richard Schmidt said.
When the team got together and
started discussing the possibility
to create such a track, I made a
major push for it. It will bring
something totally unique to NJMP
Field of Dreams.
The Parks trails system will
feature tighter, narrower areas for
two-wheeled riders and wider
spots for those on four. We want
our trail system to cater to all off-
road participants, said Keeler.
For those who dont own their
own off-road vehicle, a training
and rental center is also included
in Field of Dreams plans.
Although official rates are not
yet finalized, daily practice and
annual membership options are
expected shortly. Racing events,
both professional and amateur, are
also planned.
Brad Scott, NJMP General
Manager/COO, thanked the pub-
lic for their patience and support
throughout the process.

the NJMP Field of Dreams project,

CompleteCare Receives

dard-setting and accrediting body

We strive for the highest quali-
ty care for our patients, said Dr.
