They blew up the 8th Street
Bridge Thursday.
Actually, they blew it down.
Technically, it was imploded.
But anyway you say it, the
111-year-old span is gone and I,
for one, am glad.
Not because I didnt like the
8th Street Bridge. Just the op-
posite. Im glad its gone be-
cause I loved it. And I couldnt
bear to see it standing all dark
and rusted and forlorn-looking
right next to the brand, spank-
ing new one. Now I wont have
to.
I felt the same way about the
original Yankee Stadium as I
walked past it on my way to a
game at the new stadium two
summers ago. I had thought the
original park was gone. I wasnt
prepared to see it standing there
with tears in its eyes. Check
that, the tears were in mine.
This is wrong, I kept think-
ing, as I attempted to keep my
head down. The House that
Ruth Built deserves better. It
should not have to endure our
gaping stares.
Ultimately, however, I just
could not turn away. I stopped
and took a good, long, sad look
and the thing that struck me
and the thing I will remember
forever is that Yankee Stadium,
incredibly, seemed small. Not at
all the majestic wonder I expe-
rienced at my first Major
League game when Mickey
Mantle still patrolled center-
field.
Christians call burying the
dead a Corporal Work of Mer-
cy and, gazing upon the unbur-
ied dead of Yankee Stadium
and the 8th Street Bridge tells
you why. The dead, even the
inanimate dead, deserve a de-
cent burial.
Just as I was not prepared to
see a dead Yankee Stadium, so
too was I not prepared for the
dead 8th Street Bridge. In fact,
I was all too quick to disregard
it. And I paid a price.
The day I heard the new span
linking Wyoming Borough and
the Port Blanchard section of
Jenkins Township was open for
traffic, my wife and I were out
and about on the West Side and
I got the bright idea of taking
the long way home so we could
drive over the new bridge. Huge
mistake. I had callously not
considered what seeing the old
bridge, so close when driving
on the new one you sensed you
could reach out and touch it,
would do to me emotionally.
Just as with Yankee Stadium I
didnt want to look but knew I
had to.
The drive may have taken a
minute, if that, but it seemed
much longer. On the other side,
I sped northward along the river
with my eyes affixed to the
road and pronounced, I will
never come this way again
while that poor bridge is still
standing.
Thinking a suitable mourning
period had elapsed, I violated
my edict once to give someone
a ride home and wound up
regretting it. The 8th Street
Bridge gave me a look of how
could you? and for the remain-
ing several months I put a lot of
extra miles on my car making
sure it didnt happen again.
It was the least I could do for
an old, faithful friend.
Everyone who grew up
around here knows the 8th
Street Bridge as the ultimate
driving test, a rite of passage to
be conquered at the tender
age of 16 if ever you were to
call yourself a driver. The
bridge was always barely wide
enough for two cars to pass
safely and when I was a teen
the surface was not pavement
but metal creating a sense, true
or not, of driving on ice. Tra-
versing it behind the wheel for
the first time was harrowing.
And yet invigorating. And all
those who accomplished it
know what I mean.
But one of my most memora-
ble experiences with the bridge
came before I was old enough
to drive. My buddy, Joe Leone
and I, perhaps sophomores in
high school at the time, decided
to walk to a Pittston High foot-
ball game in Wyoming and that
meant crossing the bridge on
foot. It was about three-and-a-
half miles each way and by the
time we got back to Pittston we
felt as heroic as anyone who
had played in the game.
Thirty years later, in far bet-
ter shape at 45 than I was at 15,
I ran over that bridge regularly.
It was the half-way point of a
six-mile loop that started and
ended at the Pittston YMCA.
Perhaps my most striking
memory of the 8th Street
Bridge, however, came on the
night of June 22, 1972. My best
bud at the time, Danny Loren-
zini, and I were out on the
town. I was driving and in the
middle of the bridge as we
headed to his home in Exeter,
Danny blurted, Oh, my God,
Eddie, look at the river!
The next morning, the Flood
of 1972 was in full glory and I
didnt see Danny again for three
days. Ive always suspected we
were the last ones to cross the
8th Street Bridge that night.
Look at me, will you, sharing
memories of the departed the
way people always do at funer-
als. Thanks for letting me.

It sounded like blasts from a
double-barreled shotgun.
Bang-bang.
Then, before the crowdthat as-
sembled on River Road to watch
the demolition could catch its
breath and cheer, the steel truss-
es that held the old Eighth Street
Bridge aloft for 111 years hit the
Susquehanna.
Well, half of them anyway.
At 12:04 p.m. Thursday, dem-
olition crews from the Pennsyl-
vania Department of Transporta-
tion demolished the Jenkins
Township side of the Eighth
Street bridge, which links the
township with Wyoming.
I was shocked. (It was) my
first bridge explosion, said
Evan Herbert, of Taylor, one of
about 200 who gathered in front
of Brews Brothers on River
Road to watch the demolition.
It was like a shotgun; two
blasts, his mother, Diane Herb-
ert added.
Crews actually used three sets
of charges to take down the
bridge 200 pounds of dynamite
in all but the first two blasts
were the most audible. They se-
vered the road surface first from
the Jenkins Township embank-
ment and then a split-second lat-
er at the center, between the mid-

Theres a running gag that if you live
in Greater Pittston long enough youll
wind up being related to everyone.
What makes it funny is that so many
of us can relate, pun intended and ap-
propriate. Family reunions around here
draw massive crowds.
Thats whywe all get a little uneasyat
the sound of the word nepotism. Its
risky business to point a finger when,
down the road, fingers may be pointing
at you.
Thats also why the question being
asked of Pittston Area School Board
member Bob Linskey right now is a
fair one. Its being asked bluntly by a
letter writer on this page and quietly by
just about everyone else.
Linskey, a minority board member
since his first election, has questioned
many a hiring at Pittston Area, so his
daughters being named to a summer
teaching position, while only tempora-
ry and without a vote from her father,
who abstained, has raised eyebrows.
Unfortunately, the person hurt most
in these situations is the relative hired.
We wish Bob Linskeys daughter no ill-
will and feel sorry for her that she is in
this position.
Wed be surprised if she is not a fine
person and an excellent teacher.
We just think Bob owes everyone an
explanation.
A fair
question
Talkis cheapandsome things never change at PittstonArea no
matter who is in the majority.
At a recent board meeting the board hired Bob Linskeys
daughter as a part-time summer school teacher at 32 bucks an
hour.
Go figure.
Sure Linskey abstained, but seven board members voted to put
his daughter on. Bruce Knick was absent.
And, I have to admit I became nauseated for a couple reasons.
First, lets drop back in time when Linskey ran two years ago
against Joe Oliveris ticket. Remember the debate with Linskey
and Oliveri at my kitchen table? When asked his position on nep-
otism, Linskey responded, I have a real problem with blatant
nepotism.
Mr. Linksey, Ive got news for you, nepotism is nepotism. Its
kinda like being a little bit pregnant.
When I pressed him further during the debate asking what he
would do if his daughter applied for a position, he said, Its a
hypothetical I dont want to get in to. Hmmm. I wonder why?
He also said, She (Linskeys daughter) said, dad I wont ever
apply for a job at Pittston Area.
Next, Imevenmore disappointedwithRichGorzkowski. You
see, this past election, Gorzkowski took a No Nepotism
Pledge with fellow independent candidates Tony Tuttle and
BobLampman. The SundayDispatchwent as far as singingtheir
praises in their editorial the Sunday before election.
Like I said talk is cheap.
Im hoping to see Bob Lampman at the next meeting taking
Linskey and Gorzkowski to task. Put both these guys on the hot
seat like he did with Joe Oliveri and company.
Now, I know exactly those who are supportive of Linskey are
going to say hey its only a fewhours a day for a couple weeks.
Or, no one else applied; she was most qualified; whats the big
deal?
I wonder if the 30 applicants who were listed on the agenda
this month who applied for a job wouldve liked to make 32
bucks an hour for just a couple of weeks?
Joe Valenti
Says nepotism is alive and well at Pittston Area
OUR OPINION
Its said the best things in live are free
and thats true.
But dont expect to be fed.
That is, of course, unless you attend the
annual parking lot picnic today at the First
Baptist Church, Pittston, (noon to 3) or
the second annual Picnic in the Park
next Saturday at Hughestowns Robert
Yaple Park (noon to 5).
Both events offer free food and a prom-
ise a lot of fun.
The Hughestown picnic even includes
free pony rides for the kids.
They both offer something else free of
charge: fellowship. And that might be the
best part of all.
Try to attend.
Price is right

Theyve been around for more
than a decade, but chances are
you havent heard of them.
Theyve played Bonnaroo, All
Good, Telluride Bluegrass Fes-
tival and numerous other festiv-
als, but you might have over-
looked them. But one listen to
the crafty music of Kalamazoo
Michigans own Greensky Blue-
grass and its easy to see why the
band has been getting a ton of
much-deserved recognition after
being one of the hardest touring
acts of the last decade.
When they formed in late
2000, the bluegrass scene was
probably the farthest thing from
being accepted into the main-
stream, but Greensky Bluegrass
Paul Hoffman, Dave Bruzza,
Michael Bont, Anders Beck and
Mike Devol stuck with its pas-
sion and toured relentlessly until
2006 when the outfit was pro-
pelled into the national scene by
winning the Telluride Bluegrass
Festival Band Competition.
Through those kind of acco-
lades, and with some help from
bluegrass being a part of other
media, the band has been riding
high on the recent resurgence of
the genre, which many people
like to call newgrass.
Theres been a couple move-
ments in bluegrass and newgrass
that have helped it gain popular-
itylike whenDuelingBanjos
was in Deliverance. Stuff like
that which helped get the move-
ment into the mainstream,
Hoffman said. I think in other
ways, it was better to be part of a
new genre and play to a niche.
Once you get in front of the right
people, they all tell each other
and you can formyour own com-
munity. What the bands do to
branch outside the niche and get
people from other genres, or
whatever youwant tocall it, is re-
ally interesting, and sort of sep-
arates bands. We might pull in
Grateful Dead fans because we
play some of their music. We
might pull in some passionate
bluegrass fans because we have a
great banjo player. Or we could
pull in folk fans because of mine
or Daves style of songwriting.
They might not even like banjos
or dobros; they like the words.
Either way, its cool with us.
After spending more than a
decade as a touringwarhorse, the
band has helped garner attention
by playing some of the more
popular music festivals in the
country. Along with its multiple
appearances at Telluride, the
band has played numerous oth-
ers including the All Good Fes-
tival in West Virginia, and this
years edition of Bonnaroo,
where they played three different
sets in one day.
Festivals can be a big part of
that too, he said. This weekend
for example, at the GreyFoxMu-
sic Festival, is pretty focused on
bluegrass and our style of instru-
mentation. They do a schedule
thats more progressive through-
out the day. Earlier in the day,
youll get the old-timey blue-
grass and folk music. Then it
gets more rock and roll as the
night goes on. Were the closing
act the first two nights, so thats
where weve moved one step far-
ther awayfromthe bluegrass side
of that festival. On the flipside, at
All Good, if the schedule has
been confirmed, Im sure there
wont be more than one banjo
there at time, maybe two (laugh).
Im not sure if were there the
same day as Yonder Mountain
String Band, or anyone else who
would have a banjo. Were on the
opposite side there. And that bal-
ance of the two is whats really
important to us. We like both
sides and we like drawing people
in from various proponents.
During the festivals, the band
has met many other bluegrass
and string bands who have been
working to help the newgrass
scene blossom. It may come as
no surprise, but Hoffman re-
members playing a gig with a
certain string band fromWilkes-
Barre.
Weve actually played with
Cabinet before, he said. We
played a show with them a cou-
ple of years ago, somewhere in
Pennsylvania. It might have been
their hometown.
For a band known for its long
and jammy live shows, recording
studio albums could seem a bit
challenging. While Hoffman ad-
mits there are some difficulties
doing the live-to-studio transi-
tion, this Fall, the band plans to
release its latest effort Hand-
guns, which he says will feature
some road-tested material and
newunheard tracks which show-
case the bands musical evolu-
tion.
This one is actually self-pro-
duced, which was really excit-
ing, he said. We were in a dif-
ferent studio environment then
weve been in in the
pastTheres a couple songs on
there that people havent heard
that much, and a couple they
havent heard at all. There are
some challenges there and we
did record one tune that I wrote
quite a while ago. It was de-
signed to be more of a live explo-

If you are planning a trip to your local farmers market, here are a
fewtips to help you get the most out of your trip fromColorado State
University Cooperative Extension.
Go early. For the best selection and quality, go when the market
first opens.
Browse before buying. Do an initial walk through of the market
to see what is available. Take time to sample and compare the of-
ferings of different vendors, and ask when foods were picked.
Try not to over-buy. Rather than purchasing more food than you
likely can consume, plan to visit your farmers market more often so
that you can purchase and eat food while it is the freshest.
Try something new. Delicious new fruits and vegetables not
available at corporate supermarkets often can be found at farmers
markets. Try to buy one new item each time you go.
Make it a family affair. Take your kids when you go. Farmers
markets offer a great waytolearnhowfoodis grownandwhat it looks
like in its just picked shape. Let your child pick one or two fruits or
vegetables they would like to try.
Plan to go straight home fromthe farmers market. Leaving fresh
produce in a hot car can wilt it. If you cant head directly home, bring
a cooler to help preserve the more delicate items.
Wash your hands and produce before you take a bite. If you plan
toeat that peachor plumyoujust bought before gettinghome, be sure
to find a place to wash it first.
One of the finest and lowcalorie foods found at the market is sum-
mer squash. Here is a squash recipe fromSquash the Garden Hero.
If you would like a copy of the Extension publication, call or email
our office at 825-1701 or mre2@psu.edu.

dle two of the bridges four seg-
ments. A third blast then de-
stroyed the support pier beneath
the pair of already collapsing
bridge sections.
The bridge segments landed
on a concrete causeway crews
constructed beneath and slightly
upriver of the bridge to catch the
structure. The explosive charges
were set to cause the bridge to
roll upriver, away from the new
Eighth Street Bridge that stands
only feet downriver of the old
structure, PennDOT District 4
spokesman James May said. The
new bridge sustained no appar-
ent damage.
The explosives fired about a
minute before they were sched-
uled to go off, taking away the
crowds chance to chant a final
countdown for the bridge, but
otherwise the demolition ap-
peared to have gone off without a
hitch, May said.
PennDOT constructed a $23
million replacement that opened
at the end of March because the
original bridge was determined
to be structurally deficient and
had a limited load capacity. The
metal supports of the old bridge
will be recycled, May said.
The reason the bridge is being
demolished in segments is that a
causeway could not be built un-
der the entire bridge without
damming the river, May said.
PennDOT plans to demolish the
rest of the bridge in about a
month.
The old bridge was built in
1900, eight years before the Ford
Motor Co. began producing the
Model T and cars became more
prevalent. With a roadway only
19 feet, 5 inches wide from curb
to curb, no turning lanes and lim-
ited sightlines at the intersection
with River Road, the old bridge
clearly wasnt designed with
modern automobiles in mind.

Question #1
Eighteen-year-old
Joe Nardone of
Wilford Street, Pitt-
ston, placed some-
thing in a paper bag
for safekeeping stating
he would one day show
the contents to his grandchildren. What
was it?
1954 57 Years Ago
Mrs. James Redington of Pittston
took the finest Irish Linen and made a
handkerchief edged with delicate nylon
thread crocheted in lovers knots. After
completing the project, she sent the
finery to Senator Joseph McCarthy in
Washington D.C. Mrs. Redington had
been following the Army-McCarthy
hearings on TV and was impressed with
the Senators lovely wife.
Upon receipt, the embattled senator
sent Mrs. Redington a thank you note
stating, I shall take this home with me
tonight to give to her and know she will
appreciate your thoughtfulness.
The senators letter was written on the
Committee of Government Operations
stationery, of which he was chairman.
Senator Joseph R. McCarthys now
famous hearings charging Communist
activity in various American agencies
and industries was brought to national
attention when televised. McCarthys
power declined sharply after that and the
Senate voted to condemn him a few
months later. Historians credit American
Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) for
their decision to broadcast the hearings
live, the only station to do so.
The Pittston School District initiated a
new phase to their third consecutive year
of supervised playground programs.
Edward Venzel, music instructor at
Pittston High School, was set to instruct
youngsters on various musical instru-
ments over the summer at the high
school. The popularity of the play-
ground program spurred the school
board to sponsor the activities. Instruc-
tors at the various parks were Ralph V.
Toole and Marie Campenni, Upper
Pittston; James V. Duffy and Mary
Eagen, Jefferson; James Giardina and
Veronica Namotka, Gilmartin; John
Loughney and Mae McAndrew, Sulli-
van; Arthur OMalley and Margaret
Mary Hennigan, Flemming; Francis
G. McNulty and Alice Frederick, Al-
lardyce and Ann Mitchell and Joseph
Sobeski, Oregon.
Summer Sale Prices at Penneys in
Pittston showed boys denim jeans and
mens work shirts, $1.00. Rosedale
Dress Shop advertised dresses for $3.88
and Kaplan Brothers on South Main
offered skirts and pajamas $1.99
1964 47 Years Ago
Exeter native George Mihai, brother
of Mrs. Frank Wascalus also of Exeter,
was so moved by the assassination of
President John Kennedy he created an
oil painting titled Eternal Light and
sent it to the Kennedy family. The sea-
scape shows a likeness of the president
over a lighthouse. The painting depicts
the American flag at half-mast, storm
clouds and waters portraying the oceans.
A weathervane atop the lighthouse takes
the form of a cross. George used the
Lighthouse at Stratford Point Connecti-
cut as his subject. To read the history
and view photos of this historic light-
house go to www.lighthouse.cc/strat-
ford. Mihai received a note of apprecia-
tion from the Kennedy family.
A mooing cow was how residents
described the sound of the fire alarm
atop Pittston City Hall. There was dis-
cussion regarding the replacement of the
outdated compressor system that created
the sound, but cost would dictate wheth-
er a new electric siren or a compressor
replacement would be installed. There
were concerns as to the amount of vibra-
tion created in the building each time
the gong-type sound blasted assembling
firefighters. The original system was
installed on the building in 1930 under
Mayor Kenneth English after Exeter
residents complained of the fire alarm
sounding from the steam whistle at the
Exeter Colliery for every Pittston fire.
Dupont Mayor Joseph Troynacki
found himself in the middle of the coal-
oil battle regarding the newly construct-
ed municipal building. The buildings
plans called for oil heat, but members of
the United Mine Workers District 1 and
retired pensioned miners filed a protest.
Borough council members voted to
change plans to heat the building with
coal, but the mayor switched back to oil,
having two storage tanks installed at the
location.

sive Stanton Power Plant structure
along the Sullivan Trail in Harding was
systematically dismantled. The plant
operated by Scranton Electric Company
went into operation in 1927 and employ-
ed over 175 men.
The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post
1227 in Duryea celebrated its golden
anniversary with a dinner and ceremony
commemorating the event. Commander
Michael Tetlak received a golden anni-
versary award from Dan Kulick, district
junior vice-commander. Mr. and Mrs.
John Waters, Mr and Mrs. Michael
Tetlak, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Witkowski,
Sharon Tanner, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley
Turkos, Mayor Edward Joseph and
Judge Edwin Kosik were some of those
attending the gala. Started in 1924, the
Post 1227 is located on Stephenson
Street.
The Sunday Dispatch Inquiring Pho-
tographer asked Pittston baseball fans:
If you were managing the struggling
Phillies in their 1974 pennant drive,
what would you do differently?
Don Doyle of Pittston answered, I
would sell the bull-pen and buy vitamin
pills for Lonberg and Carlton.
Dominick Morreale said, I would
play Bill Robinson every day.
Jimmy Limongelli said, I would get
a new pitching coach.
Michael Sobeski added, I would
make my mother the umpire.
Question #2
In May of this year, what did the Phil-
lies do to capture the nostalgia of the
1974 season?
1984 27 Years Ago
Walter and Marita Murphy and their
children Austin, Kelly and Mark of
West Pittston, were vacationing on the
Canadian side of Niagara Falls, and
could not imagine that they would
somehow have a brush with Falls histo-
ry. A day before, a Canadian stuntman
of Czechoslovakian decent, Karel Sou-
cek, plunged in a barrel over the falls
making him one of 21 people who in-
tentionally tried the feat. The Murphys,
staying at the same hotel, recognized the
bruised daredevil, received his auto-
graph, and joined him for breakfast.
Six months later, Soucek attempted to
repeat the feat at the Houston Astro-
dome by dropping himself, inside a
wooden barrel, 180 ft. into a 10-foot
pool of water. Unfortunately, the barrel
hit the edge of the pool and Soucek
succumbed to injuries. Buried in Drum-
mond Hill Cemetery at Niagara Falls,
his tombstone reads, It is not whether
you fail or triumph, its that you keep
your word and at least try.
In December of 1944, Avoca native
Joe Makar was taken prisoner by the
German army during the Battle of Bas-
tione. Living through deplorable condi-
tions and seeing many of his fellow
soldiers die, he remained steadfast. The
38th Infantry Division freed him and
fellow prisoners the following year from
the Brunswick Camp. In 1984, Makar
started a local chapter of the American
Ex-Prisoners of War after learning about
the national group in sessions at the VA.
Today Fred C. Searles of Wyoming
heads the Ex-prisoners of War Keystone
Chapter of Northeast Pennsylvania.
1994 17 Years Ago
After a 15-year hiatus, members of St.
Roccos Boy Scout Troop 303, Gino
DAngelo, assistant senior patrol leader;
John Cotter; Rich Kossuth, assistant
scoutmaster; Jerry Prawdzik Sr., troop
committee; Sean Burke, Jerry Prawd-
zik Jr., Allan Azaravich, troop commit-
tee; Steven Azaravich, Charles Venna-
rini, senior patrol leader; L.A. Sangue-
dolce, scoutmaster and Bill Burke as-
sistant scoutmaster completed a four-day
canoe trip along the Susquehanna River.
Starting in Barton, New York, the troop
traveled approximately 100 miles.
The city parking normally accommo-
dated the Pittston Farmers Market but
needed renovating during the summer of
1984. Paul Cooper owner of Coopers
Waterfront Seafood Restaurant came to
the rescue and offered his restaurant
parking lot for the popular weekly event.
Answer #1
Joe Nardone placed the hair of his
freshly cut five-month-old beard in a
paper bag to keep for old times sake
commemorating the Pittston Centennial.
The week long event in July of 1954
ended with members of the Brothers of
the Brush visiting their local barber-
shops to remove the beards the men
grew in celebration of the citys birthday.
Answer #2
The Philadelphia Phillies donned their
1974 powder blue road uniforms to play
opposite the Atlanta Braves at the 2011
Civil Rights Game on May 15, 2011.
Both teams commemorated the day
Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruths career
home run record by hitting his 715th on
April 8, 1974.
A positive attitude may not solve all
your problems, but it will annoy enough
people to make it worth the effort.

ratory song, and deciding what
the appropriate thing to do in the
studio was challenging. I think
thats the hardest thing to do to
figure out what serves the song
best. Its a long song on the re-
cord. Its like twelve minutes, so
we didnt do that good of a job
editing stuff out (laugh).
As much as the band is cele-
brating the completion of the
new album, its geared up to do
what it does best, and hit the road
for some festivals and theater
shows, like its upcoming stop at
the Mauch Chunk Opera House
in Jim Thorpe on Friday.
Weve got a real wide array of
people coming out from all over
the place. All different fans
weve started to collect, Hoff-
man said. Ive heard really good
things about the theater were
playing in next Friday. Being on
the right stage with the right
sounds certainly helps set the
mood right for having some fun
withthe music. Weve beenplay-
ing a couple gigs here and there,
but have beensort of takinga rest
at home. So were rested and
ready to play some music. Athe-
ater showin the middle of festiv-
al gigs is fun because we get to
do what we want to do. Its our
thing; we have more control over
the environment, so were look-
ing forward to itWeve heard
really good things about that
place and are looking forward to
playing there.
Greensky Bluegrass will be
performing at the Mauch Chunk
Opera House in Jim Thorpe this
Friday at 8 p.m. For more info,

Several hundred people, most-
ly from Greater Pittston, attend-
ed the funeral service Friday for
CaptainFredR. DemechJr., U.S.
Navy (Retired) at Arlington Na-
tional Cemetery, Washington,
D.C.
Among those in attendance
was Avoca native Fred Gedrich,
a resident of Washington, who
said Capt. Demechs burial ser-
vice took place several feet away
from where Dale Kridlo, like
Demech a Greater Pittstonian,
who was killed in Afghanistan in
November, is buried.
A resident of Moosic, Capt.
Demech passed away peacefully
after a valiantly fought battle
with cancer on March 11, 2011.
He was born June 1, 1940, in
Taylor, a son of the late Fred and
Minnie Uritz Demech.
He graduated from Pittston
High School, Wilkes College,
the Naval War College and the
National War College. He was
commissioned as Ensign in1962
and served in the Navy for more
than 27 years, retiring in 1989.
He was a career cryptologist and
a qualified Surface Warfare Of-
ficer.
As a Navy Captain and Presi-
dential Appointee, Capt. De-
mech twice served as the Exec-
utive Director for the Presidents
Foreign Intelligence Advisory
Board in the White House. For
this service, Capt. Demech was
awarded the nations highest
peacetime military decoration,
The Defense Distinguished Ser-
vice Medal.
For two years, Capt. Demech
was Commanding Officer of the
Navys largest cryptologic base,
a 1,000 person overseas facility.
This command won the coveted
Travis Trophy that identified it
as the top communications site
in the Department of Defense
during 1984. For this service,
Capt. Demech was awarded the
Legion of Merit. Other Navy as-
signments included Executive
Assistant to three senior flag of-
ficers, Research and Technical
Officer onboard two ships, and
both Operations and Executive
Officer at several shore stations.
For 19 years, Capt. Demech
was employed by the TRW and
Northrop Grumman Corpora-
tions. For seven years he served
as director for two different busi-
ness units. Prior to his retirement
in 2008, he managed the compa-
nys Special Work and Travel
Programthat provided for the se-
curity, safety and health for per-
sonnel all over the world.
As an active member of the
many communities where he re-
sided, Capt. Demech led a city
Cable TVCommission and Rec-
reation Task Force, served on the
Board of Directors of a county
Volunteer Association, and the
Wilkes University Alumni Asso-
ciation where he also was the
First Vice President, served as a
church elder, was Vice President
of a Homeowners Association,
and was the Public Affairs
Chairman for the National
Cryptologic Museum Founda-
tion. He was a member of Amer-
ican Legion Post 1188 in Minoo-
ka.
Surviving are his wife of 47
years, Janet, Moosic; daughter
Lesley DAndrea and husband,
Robert, Doylestown; grandsons,
Kevin and Brian DAndrea; sis-
ter, Carolyn Salvaggio, Forty
Fort.
Capt. Demech maintained that
his most satisfying experience in
the Navy and the business world
was dealing with people. He was
a positive influence to countless
individuals and his shipmates
and friends were very dear to
him. He was a loving husband,
father, grandfather and friend.
A memorial service was held
March 19, at the Second Presby-
terian Church, Pittston.

WE CARRYALL MAKES &MODELS
One byone theylinedupas the
Wyoming Valley Band played
patriotic melodies nearby. Hand
after hand was extended, and
with a smile and a nod, Dr. Jo-
seph Mattioli gladly, but uncom-
fortably, accepted the praise be-
ing heaped upon him and his
wife, Rose.
On Monday, Independence
Day, more than 300 people gath-
ered on the grounds of the histor-
ic Wyoming Monument to com-
memorate the Battle of Wyom-
ing, which took place 233 years
ago.
Many come every year; some
came this year just to see the
Mattiolis and the 66-foot, 6-
inch-tall monument that their
generous donation of $100,000
helped to restore during the past
year.
Gloria Blandina, of Wyoming,
has been to the annual event 35
times. Before leaving on Mon-
day, she went up to the stage at
the front of the large tent giving
shelter to those gathered from
the sweltering sun and extended
her hand and personal thanks to
the Mattiolis.
Its very, very gracious of him
to do this for the community,
Blandina said after her few sec-
onds with the owners of Pocono
International Raceway in Long
Pond. What a great, great gift he
gave to all of us.
On Aug. 3, 2008, lightning
struck the monument. The strike
moved the top two rows of stones
at least two inches, damaged the
joints on the monuments cap
and blew out a small chunk of
concrete. A plaque listing the
names of survivors of the Battle
of Wyoming sustained a crack
from top to bottom along the
right side, running through the
last names of 14 of the men, from
Ensign Daniel Downing down to
Pvt. Cherrick Westbrook.
Immediately after the strike,
the community rallied around
the monument and held fun-
draisers tobeginraisingthe more
than $125,000 needed to repair
the towns cherished treasure.
But more than a year after the
damage was done, only one-fifth
of the needed funds was raised.
Then Joseph Mattioli read a sto-
ryinThe Times Leader about the
efforts to restore the monument
and made a call to the storys au-
thor, Bill OBoyle.
The reporter helped arrange a
meeting among monument asso-
ciation officials; the boroughs
mayor, Bob Boyer ; and the Mat-
tiolis at the couples Long Pond
home on July 12, 2010. Mattioli
wrote a check for $100,000 and
handed it to the group. The resto-
ration could begin.
Throughout Mondays more
than two-hour program, speak-
ers praised the Mattiolis and
their generosity. The couple, he
seated in a wheelchair, she in a
folding chair by his side, wiped
away tears as they heard how
much their donation was appre-
ciated.
It was nice, Joseph Mattioli
said after the program. They re-
ally outdid themselves with a
beautiful program.
Though he had never been to
the annual commemoration be-
fore Monday, he said growing up
in Old Forge, he would drive
down Route11and past the mon-
ument on his travels. He said that
when he read about what had
happened and how the commu-
nity was trying to raise funds, he
felt he could help.
I was lucky to make a lot of
money. These are the types of
things I like to support, Mattioli
said.
While the money given by the
Mattioli family was key in get-
ting the project the funds neces-
sary to begin, the work by Ma-
sonry Preservation Services of
Berwick ensured the monument
was restored and in a state that it
would remain for generations
more to appreciate.
The Mattiolis actions touched
many of those gathered Monday
and elicited praise from Bob Pa-
volonis, 65, of Wyoming.
Theyve got kind hearts.
Theyre wonderful people.
Thats what you call voluntarily
sharing your wealth, said Pavo-
lonis, who said the large turnout
was probably due to a combina-
tion of the restoration of the
monument itself and people

wanting to make sure the Mattio-
lis knew how much their dona-
tion meant.
Usually theres empty seats,
but not this time, Pavolonis
said.
Among those who said he
came for the first time Monday
was Bill Sullivan, 38, of West
Wyoming.
After hearing about it and
reading about it the past two
years, I knew this was a big deal
and I felt like I needed to be
here, Sullivan said.
Even those who have been to
the ceremonies dozens of times
noted the difference in this years
event.
Frank E.P. Conyngham, presi-
dent of the Wyoming Commem-
orative Association, said Sunday
night was like Christmas Eve for
him. He said he was filled with
anticipation and excitement for
the event to begin.
The Wyoming Monument
honors the more than 170 Con-
necticut settlers who were killed
by Tories and Iroquois Indians
on July 3, 1778, in the Battle of
Wyoming. The remains of those
killedwere foundina mass grave
in May 1832 and reburied where
the monument stands. The mon-
uments construction began in
July 1833 and was suspended
due to a lack of funds when the
monument reached 20 feet. Con-
struction resumed in 1841 when
the Ladies Luzerne Monumental
Association, which became the
Wyoming Monument Associ-
Wyoming Monument Association President Marcella Starr, front,
and Wyoming Mayor Robert Boyer sing the national anthem.

Membership registration for June 2011 through June 2012 for the
Wyoming Ambulance is now in the second month of the sub-
scription drive. Only 31% of the residents have responded at this
time. Anyone who has not returned their subscription will receive
a reminder in the next few weeks. Those residents who do not
subscribe to the membership allow themselves to be billed for
ambulance services. This billing can result in several hundred
dollars as opposed to the subscription rate. Over the last few
years, the membership subscription drive for the Wyoming Ambu-
lance has continued to drop which is making it financially difficult
to continue providing this service to Wyoming residents. If more
residents continue to not subscribe Wyoming Hose Company #1
may be forced to close the ambulance operation.
Pictured are fund drive chairman Kirk Carey and co-chairman
John Marianacci.

It took over a week to decide, but a
championwas finallycrownedinthe John
A. Allan Tournament at Fox Hill Country
Club on Monday.
The team of Don Crossin and Bill
Briggs completed their round on Monday
with a 7-under 65 to win the annual tour-
nament over the team of John Mulhern
and Len Coleman, who finished with a
68.
The two teams were back out on the
course Monday to complete the last 13
holes of a special playoff that was inter-
rupted by rain on Sunday.
The playoff was necessary after the two
teams finished three days of play tied over
a week ago.
On June 26, both teams finished at 14-
under par inthe better-ball stroke playfor-
mat. After three playoff holes, neither
team converted on its potential match-
winning putts and the match was called
due to darkness.
The teams returned to the course Sun-
day, but had to quit after five holes due to
rain.

Bill Briggs cannot believe his
20-foot putt did not sink as it
sat on the rim of the cup.
Sunday's rain made it impos-
sible to finish. The match was

Bassler Equipment won both
of its matches this week and tied
Blandina Apartments for the
regular season first-half title.
Thanks toplayof Joe Zambetti
Sr. and Harold Kiesinger, there
will be a one-game playoff with
Blandina Apartments at the con-
clusion of the regular season to
determine the title. The Bassler
Boys are Phil Bosha, Joe Zam-
betti Sr., Henry Korpusik and
Harold Kiesinger.
The winner of each half is giv-
en a place in the finals once the
playoffs begin. The points that
are accumulated during play in
each half are used as tie breakers
for all places except first. It was
the points that gave Atlas Realty
the final playoff spot over Old
Forge Chiropractic and JetSurge
Power Cleaning.
Also another brilliant per-
formance was turned in by "Mr.
Consistent" Ralph Campanella.
With all places being so hotly
contested, the second half of play
should be quite interesting.

OBITUARIES
Michael
Mirch, 95, of
Avoca, died
July 6, 2011 at
the home of
his caretaker
and daughter Jean Kiesinger.
Born in 1915 in Troy, NY, he
was the son of the late Eli and
Vuka (Lasko) Mirch. For most
of his adult life, he worked in
the construction and coal
mining industries. He was em-
ployed by Kaminski Brothers
in Pittston Township for many
years. His work ethic was so
strong and his passion for work
so deep, that he reluctantly re-
tired his position as a drag-line
operator at the age of 85.
However, no passion sur-
passed the bond he shared with
his beloved wife, Gladys.
Those who knew Mike and
Gladys admired and were in-
spired by their relationship of
72 years a relationship de-
fined by mutual respect, deep
care and the beautiful sense of
delight they found in each oth-
er. They genuinely lived to
serve each other and this sense
of "service" was obvious in
things as simple as the daily
slice of homemade apple pie
that Gladys lovingly served
Mike, andthings as complexas
Mikes tireless care for Gladys
as she approached her own
death.
Mikes calmand steady pres-
ence was a source of stability
for Gladys as she made her de-
scent into the darkness of Alz-
heimers disease. He played a
central role in her caretaking
until her death. Testament to
the love they shared is the fact
that Mike was the only face
and voice she recognized into
the final days of her life. And
like many couples that share a
deep, abiding love, Mikes
physical decline began shortly
following his wifes death.
Mike and Gladys were always
a quiet refuge for each other,
and to imagine them now re-
united is of great solace to
those that knew and loved
them.
He thoroughly enjoyed his
grand and great-grandchildren
and had a keen interest in their
lives. His daily visits with Jack
and Emma, two of his great-
grandchildren, brought him
great joy in his final years.
Mike died in the home of his
daughter, Jean, who gave her
father the greatest gift a child
can offer: a space of comfort
and calm within which to live
out the remaining days of a ve-
ry rich, full and vibrant life. In
the two years that he resided in
her home, they shared an in-
timacy that can only arise be-
tween two people who seek to
more deeply know each other.
He often referred to Jean as
his "right hand" and he died
with her seated beside him.
Those who knew and loved
Mike can take solace in the
knowledge that he left this
world in much the same way he
lived his life; surrounded by
family and with tremendous
grace, dignity and abiding
calm.
He was also preceded in
death by his brothers, Samand
John Mirch.
He is survived by his son, Ri-
chard Mirch, and his wife, Ro-
sann, of Hancock, NY; daugh-
ter, Ethel Panek, and her hus-
band, Marty, of Moscow, and
daughter, Jean Kiesinger and
her husband, Bill, of Avoca; 11
grandchildren, 20 great-grand-
children and several nieces and
nephews.
A Mass of Christian Burial
will be held Monday at noon at
St. Patricks RC Church,
Church St., Long Eddy, NY.
Friends may call Sunday from
2 to 5 p.m. at Kiesinger Funer-
al Services, 255 McAlpine St.,

The Misericordia University
Nursing Department recently
held a pinning ceremony in
Lemmond Theater in Walsh
Hall to honor 31 undergraduate
nursing students in the tradi-
tional Bachelor of Science in
Nursing program who gradu-
ated May 21 at the 85th annual
Commencement ceremony.
Undergraduate nursing stu-
dents who completed the pro-
gram receive the Misericordia
University Nursing Pin, a sym-
bol of achievement in the nurs-
ing profession. Family and
friends attended the ceremony,
which also featured Father Do-
nald Williams, university chap-
lain, blessing the pins and nurs-
es reciting the international
pledge and prayer for nurses.
Misericordia University of-
fers three undergraduate nurs-
ing programs: traditional, full-
time nursing students; part-
time accelerated evening pro-
gram for adult students; and for
registered nurse students the
RN to BSN Expressway Pro-
gram. The undergraduate nurs-
ing programs are designed to
meet the special educational
and scheduling needs of adult
and traditional students and all
lead to the Bachelor of Science
in Nursing (BSN) degree.
Misericordia University is
the most senior nursing pro-
gram in Northeastern Pennsyl-
vania. MU offers undergradu-
ate and graduate nursing pro-
grams for traditional and non-

programs are also designed to
meet the special needs of cur-
rent BSN registered nurses who
desire an advanced practice
specialization in family nurse
practitioner or clinical nurse
specialization. Clinical nurse
specialization students may fur-
ther choose to focus in adult
health nursing or the health of

subspecialty in nursing admin-
istration or nursing education.
