A volunteer driven community program has been activein Northwest New Jersey for the past two years. Called the
Life Book Writing Project, it matches volunteers with com-
munity members who wish to record their life experiences.
The program is free of charge and aims to capture ones his-
tory by having volunteers conduct oral interviews with sen-
iors and transcribing them into a bound Life Book.
Our older seniors have lived through some of the most
dramatic events in world history. To lose that firsthand
account of history would be wasting a valuable resource
that we would never get back says Nancy Hess, Director of
Skylands RSVP, a Rockaway based volunteer resource cen-
ter. RSVP is part of a national program sponsored locally byNORWESCAP, a community action program active in
Northwest New Jersey
The interviewers, using digital voice recorders loaned to
them by the organization, are trained in interviewing skills
and in working with older adults. The next training for vol-
unteer interviewers/writers is scheduled in Morris County.
The training provides the volunteers with questions to ask
as well as tips for active listening. Each completed book is
presented as a gift to the senior.
Some give these memoirs to family members, others
plan to donate them to the local library or historical society,
and some just want to hold onto them as a reminder of theirlife. One recipient was so pleased with the result that he
considered self publishing his Life Book. Amazing histori-
cal stories are locked into the memories of many of our sen-
iors. Its especially wonderful when these are unlocked
for family and friends. Not too long ago a grateful recipient
wrote a letter to the volunteer after the completion of the
Life Book. The note read in part: I want you to know how
Senior Memoirs Tell Wonderful Storiesmuch I appreciated your help and guidance with my biog-
raphy. You made a mostly uneventful life book more inter-
esting than it was. It will not make it to the NY Times Best
Seller List, but it will make it into the hearts of an apprecia-
tive family, friends and me.Training for new volunteers who want to put their inter-
viewing, writing and editing skills to use in the community
will take place at Skylands RSVP's office in Rockaway. For
more information about the program, or to sign up for the
training class, please call Stan Gabay at 973-784-4900 ext.

On July 27th 2013 we will be hosting our 4th Annual Automotive Magic CustomerAppreciation Party celebrating our 10th year in the business.This year we are very happy to be a part of a nationwide program called "Wheels to
Prosper." This program awards a fully serviced car to a worthy and deserving person cho-sen from the local community. Recommendations are taken for individuals that are local-ly active in community service and then one lucky individual is chosen from those sug-gestions. They receive a late model car that has been fully inspected and repaired as need-ed.
Our car giveaway will take place at our annual customer appreciation day on July
27th, 2013. We'll be doing clambakes, horseshoe tosses, games, tons of food, live
music and many more fun activities down at our shop. See you there!
Did you know that on average mostvehicles will lose up to 15% of their
refrigerant gas each year? Muchof this loss occurs when yourAC system has not been used for extended periods
of time, such as over the winter.So if your automobile does NOT feel cold enough,then it may need some routinemaintenance, such as recharging therefrigerant, normally a very simple and easy
item to take care of. Give us a call to set up atime and well be happy to take a look.

the first New Jersey premiere running September 27th
through October 27th, Fridays at 7:30PM, Saturdays and
Sunday matinees at 4:00PM. The production is based on
the Oscar winning DreamWorks film that started it all
with book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire and music
by Jeanine Tesori. The show brings the hilarious story of
everyone's favorite ogre to dazzling new life on the stage.
In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly
when an unseemly ogre not a handsome prince
shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a donkey
who won't shut up, a bad guy with a SHORT temper, a
cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale
misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a realhero. Luckily, there's one on hand...and his name is Shrek.
Full of all-new songs, great dancing and breathtaking
scenery, SHREK THE MUSICAL is part romance, part
twisted fairy tale and all irreverent fun for everyone!

HUBIE HARTZEL by Susan Rowan Masters graces the
Palace stage, running February 7th through March 2nd,
Fridays at 7:30PM, Saturday and Sunday matinees at
4:00PM. This story is about the perils of life in fifth grade.
Humor helps to lighten this radio-style entertainment for
all ages as Hubie deals with his problems. Hes failing
school, hes stuck with an impossible older sister, his
beloved family cat is sick, and hes the target of Ralph
Marruci, class bully. But he has an escape daydreaming.He imagines himself a prizefighter and draws caricatures
in class of his teachers, family and friends. Everyone, that
is, but the new art teacherhe has a crush on her!
Unfortunately, Hubies attempts at coping with life back-
fire, and he winds up in more trouble than before. When
the perfect plan for revenge on Marruci blows up in his
face, Hubie finds the courage to stand up to the bully and
do the right thing.
The final main stage show of the season and second
New Jersey premiere is KNUFFLE BUNNY: A CAU-
TIONARY MUSICAL running April 18th through May
18th, Saturday and Sunday matinees at 4:00PM and a spe-cial opening night performance on Friday, April 18th at
7:30PM. The story: girl loves stuffed animal. Girl loses
beloved animal. Girl fights to get animal back. But throw
adventure, song and dancing laundry into the mix and you
get an instant children's classic! Six-time Emmy Award
winner Mo Willems teams up with Grammy Awardwin-
ning composer Michael Silversher to create this heart-
warming and hilarious musical. Based on the beloved
Caldecott Honorwinning picture book, KNUFFLE
BUNNY: A CAUTIONARY MUSICAL follows Trixie, her
father, and her favorite stuffed bunny on a trip to the laun-
dromat. The trip brings wonder, excitement and joy to the
lively toddler, until she realizes she has left her Knuffle
Bunny back at the laundromat. Trixie does everything in
her power to make her father understand the emergency,
but her father fails to see the issue at hand. This brilliant
true-to-life tale is the epitome of children's theatre, the
story itself already proclaimed a "kid favorite." The perfect
show for a family-friendly outing, KNUFFLE BUNNY: A
CAUTIONARY MUSICAL offers a great opportunity to
showcase wacky characters and outrageous technical
designs.

Today we have the great fortune to
still have an up close and personalview of the family lifestyle of
Thomas Edison. Many of the familys per-
sonal letters, records and diaries have been
preserved and even scanned, categorized
and electronically archived by the dedicated
Thomas Edison Papers Project team at
Rutgers University (edison.rutgers.edu).
The other curators of his home and home
furnishings have come under the care of
professional National Park Service ranger
curators. The NPS West Orange Glenmont
home has also received great private com-munity support from The Friends of
Thomas Edison (foedison.org) to preserve
the artifacts that belong to Edisons person-
al family history. Time has lost the local
West Orange, NJ residents that would give
firsthand accounts of social interactions by
the Edison family. However, there is a
wealth of family items left behind that we
can still sense the spirit and personality of
Thomas Edison, Mina Edison and their
three children growing up in the West
Orange estate home. Todays Thomas
Edison admirers want to peer into the per-
sonal history of his family life along with
the history of his great inventions.What these personal articles have ren-
dered was that the Edison Family enjoyed
using prank toys on their guests and igniting
small explosives for entertainment. The
NPS curators have helped present the fun
mischievous side of the Edison Family by
displaying these items to the public. Mina
Edison supported these activities for her
family in the late 1890s. She added the
Electric Thriller to the Christmas Toy list.
The Electric Thriller was an electric shock
toy. The park curators have showcased thisitem as part of the Christmas Holiday exhib-
it collection.
Thomas Edison had a legendary child-
hood history for accidentally exploding
things such as - vacant train cars and the
family basement room from his novice
chemistry experiments. This continued into
his adulthood when he attempted to invent a
gun-powder powered engine for a helicop-
ter. It became a scrapped project when this
invention exploded inside his factory lab.
Still, his dangerous reputation with explo-
Thomas Edison The Dad -Allowed Electric Shock Toys And Home Fireworks
sives did not deter him for having his own
familys stash of fireworks for the July 4th
celebration which he stated was his favoriteholiday. Madeline, Charles and Theodore
were Edisons younger children from his
second wife Mina. They got to have memo-
rable childhoods at the Glenmont estate
home and a chance to enjoy their fathers
orchestrated firework celebrations both at
the Glenmont home and their retreat home
in Fort Myers, Florida. Found in the Edison
archives of household bills is the July 1893firework purchase of: "two dozen packages
of Electric Torp., one Dragons Nest, one
Devil Among the Tailor, one Surprise Box,
one Floral Fount(ain), one (dozen) Rockets,

kids did not only have cool parents that
bought fireworks, they had a dad who also
invented a few celebratory explosive items
in his lab for the family. The ones that their
dad made had a bigger bang to them.

Louis Picone of Succasunna is hoping
to get to Hawaii, not necessarily for
the beaches, luaus, volcanoes and
palm trees, but to visit the birthplace of
President Barack Obama.Picone, 42, has visited most of the birth
places of the 43 presidents of the United
States, as part of his research in his first
published book Where the Presidents Are
Born: The History and Preservation of the
Presidential Birthplaces. The 192-page
soft cover book was published Oct. 28,
2012 by Schiffer Publishing in Atglen, Pa.
Since most of the presidents were born
on the East Coast, Picone did not have to
travel more than a couple of days at a time
to get the information he needed. But to getto Obamas birth site, travel is much more
extensive.
I havent gotten there yet, says Picone.
Hes the furthest.
An Information Technology manager at
Express Scripts in Franklin Lakes, Picone
knew he always wanted to write a book. He
stumbled across the idea of the presidential
birth places in 2008 during his trip to Ohio.
I was actually travelling to Louisville,
Kentucky to go to a Beatles festival,
explains Picone. My oldest son Vincent at
the time was five and he just started liking
Beatles music so I thought this would be a
fun road trip. I also brought my parents and
my oldest niece Danielle. Our road trip
took us through Ohio where we visited all
of the presidential birthplaces. He discov-ered that there were seven presidents born
in Ohio.
After the Beatles festival we then went
to Abraham Lincoln's birthplace in
Hodgenville, Kentucky, says Picone. The
story of the log cabin where he was born is
one of the most fascinating stories of them
all!
After his trip, Picone says it got me
thinking about their birth places and how I
wanted to visit all of them. By birthplace I
mean the home they were born in. In somecases this was the home they grew up in, but
in other cases they moved out when they
were young or they were born in a home
other than their family home. For those
presidents born in a hospital (Carter,
Clinton, Bush II, and Obama) I write about
the hospital as well as their first home.
Being born in a home rather than in the
hospital was the norm years ago, says
Picone. Carter was born in 1924 and the
only reason he wasn't born at home was that
his mother was a nurse at the hospital and
the doctors figured if she had her baby at the
hospital she would recover quicker and
therefore not be out of work as long.
Nowadays home births are very rare, but
before the twentieth century it was the
norm.Finding the actual birth place was not
always easy, especially for the less popular
presidents.
Some were easy to find; some were
harder to find, says Picone. They werent
these big popular tourist sites. So many of
them have really interesting stories. A lot
of the birth sites were recreated after they
became president.
What started out as a hobby for one
year visiting birthplaces, grew into a book-
worth of information. Picone sent one chap-ter of his book idea- the chapter on Grover
Cleveland - the 22nd and 24th president and
only president born in New Jersey - to
Schiffer Publishing, which then gave him a
six month deadline to finish the book.
Although there were 43 presidents,
Picone included an additional chapter on
Jefferson Davis who was elected president
of the Confederate States of America from
1861 to 1865.
In each of the 44 chapters, Picone pro-
vides vital birthplace information such as
location, how long the president lived in the
home, style of the home, if its still in exis-
tence, if there is a replica, how its commem-
orated, if its open to the public, cost;
address/directions; what you will find there
today; History of the home - starting back
from the native Indians and first settlers, the
history of the property owners, when the
home was built, previous owners, other his-

torical events that occurred at the home.
Picone also writes about what happened to
the home after the birth, whether it burned
down, got different owners, destroyed or
moved; Preservation - The story about how
it was preserved whether it be a recreation
site, the original home or an historic mark-er. For Franklin Pierce, his birthplace was
submerged beneath a lake when a nearby
river was dammed in 1926.
He also includes visitor information and
personal experiences.
Picone groups the book into three differ-
ent sections: the Colonial Presidents which
includes the first 15 presidents who were
born on the East Coast; Westward
Expansion, or 15 presidents who lived more
out west; and From Sea to Shiny Sea, or
more Central America to the middle of theU.S.
Described as non-fiction, historical and a
travel book, Picone says his book can be
used for teaching purposes and is currently
in 40 college libraries.
Besides having a fascination with these
gentlemen, Picone says they all disserve
respect and their birthplaces should be cele-
brated and preserved. I really think people
should care about the Presidential birth-
places because there has been a lot of inter-
esting and quirky stories related to thePresidential birthplaces that most people
dont know. I didnt either until I started my
research.
For instance, the first Thanksgiving was
celebrated at William Henry Harrison's
birthplace Berkeley Plantation in 1619,
two years before the
Pilgrims celebrated
the "first"Thanksgiving in
Massachusetts, says
Picone. Wyatt
Earp's cousin once
lived in Harry S
Truman's birthplace.
He sold souvenir post-
cards and various other
Wyatt Earp and
Harry S. Truman
novelties and if a visitor
spent fifty cents, heshowed them the birth
room for free. William
McKinley's birthplace
was cut in half, with one
side going on display in a
nearby amusement park
and the other rented for office space. They
were later reunited and turned into a muse-
um, however after a few years the museum
went under and the home was abandoned.
In the depression, hobos used the home for
shelter until it burnt to the ground in 1937.These are just a few of the fascinating sto-
ries associated with the Presidential
Birthplaces.
Picones fascination with the presidents
continues as he
writes his second
book on where the
presidents died.
Hoping to havethis one complet-
ed by 2015,
Picone is trying
to include infor-
mation on where
they died, where
the funeral was
held, where
they were
buried, and if
they were
reburied.A 1992
graduate of
R i d e r
U nive r s i t y
with a degree in
computer science, Picone says I always did
enjoy writing. I always felt I wanted to
write a book and I knew I had one in me. I
love the research, the interviewing. I
enjoyed visiting the sites. Some of his
work was like detective work.
Picone got his information from 600sources and other books; old newspapers
from the 1800s and early 1900s; the
National Park Service; and historical publi-
cations.
A highlight from his writing the book
was meeting Jimmy Carter. Picone had been
visiting Carters birth place in Plains, Ga.,
when he discovered that Carter still lives
there and the entire town was turned into theJimmy Carter National Historical Site by
the National Park Service. While there,
Picone went to his church and in comes
Jimmy Carter who is still an active mem-
ber.
He sat there for his service, says
Picone. I met him and his wife Rosalynn. I
got to talk to him for five minutes. I told
him I was writing the book. He told me
about his boyhood home and where it was
located. They even took a photo together.
That was my favorite birthplace.Although he works full time, is married
and is the father of two boys, Picone says I
squeeze it in whenever I can sneak down to
the basement to write for 45 minutes. If
there is something you really like to do you
will find the time to do it.

History and Preservation of the Presidential
Birthplaces is available online through
Wal-Mart, Target, Barnes & Noble and
Amazon, as well as at some Barnes &
Noble stores in Clifton, Paramus andPrinceton. Cost is $30.

Barbie received her
name because she is
just a doll!
Barbie is a friendly pup
who loves hanging out with
people & she loves playingwith other dogs. This affec-
tionate pup is easy going &
sweet. With her unique
look it's hard to tell what
breed she is mixed with, but
we do know she is 100%
sweetness.
Barbie is about 1 year
old & weighs about 35
pounds. She has a gorgeous
face with some white on it
& a redish-tan color softcoat on her body.
Barbie is in a foster
home in NJ after being
found as a stay in NC. She
was taken to an over popu-
lated shelter and when
FHDR found out what a doll
she is, we brought her to NJ.
Within minutes of meeting
Barbie, she won our hearts!
In her foster home, she
gets to go on walks and play
Barbie Wants A New Home!
with the foster's dogs. She
is enjoying yummy treats &
good food and she even gets
to sleep on a comfy bed. Her
foster family thinks she is a
special girl!
If you have a furever
home for this pet, please e-
mail FureverHomeRescue
@att.net and request an
adoption application.

What a cutie
Donnie is! With
his melting eyes,
floppy ears, soft fur and del-
icate body, who could resist
him!Donnie is a playful and
happy puppy with a sweet
personality. He is living in a
foster home in NJ after
being rescued from an over
crowded shelter in NC. He
is about 14-16 weeks old,
weighs about 20-25 pounds
and his foster family thinks
he is amazing.
Donnie likes running
around the yard playingwith toys and playing with
other dogs. You can see him
in the video playing with his
friend Oscar (who is up for
adoption) and the foster's
dog Cookie. They have lots
of fun playing together!
Donnie's foster family
says "Donnie loves being
with people and likes to sit
with you and cuddle. He is a
genuine cuddle bug. Donnie
sleeps through the night
without having an accident
and he is doing great with
house training. We think
Donnie would make a won-
derful family dog!"
Even though he is having
fun in his foster home.
Donnie would really love a
family of his own. He
would make a wonderful
friend.
