Middle School held their annual
Veterans Day Celebration. It was aday where students honored, remembered
and celebrated those who served our coun-
try. Students had the opportunity to meet
with veterans whose service ranged from
WWII to present day. Event coordinator
Doreen Madalian continued These class-
room visits gave RMSstudents an insight
beyond a history book lesson but more
importantly gave students a chance to say
"thank-you" to those Veterans for all they
have done. The middle school sidewalks
were lined with American flags and yellowribbons were tied to the trees near the build-
ing. We began day the with Taps played
over the loud speaker as Veterans saluted
the flag. From there Veterans joined class-rooms and students rotated through (3) 30
minute question&answer sessions with dif-
ferent veterans. Guests from Joint Bases
McGuire/Ft Dix/Lakehurst and Picatinney
Arsenal were in attendance as well as our
own Family Veterans. Additionally some of
our students were able to Skype
Afghanistan, speaking with Major Mike
Hill, and all students wrote thank-you let-
ters/cards to veterans. Brunch concluded
the celebration. PTO Moms and Dads made
our brunch possible through their generous
donations.

of John Yarrington and the choir of FirstUnited Methodist Church in Little Rock. Wehave sung with the chancel choir at FirstUnited Methodist Church of Newton for 14
years. The sad part about performing togeth-er is that, while we always had leading rolesin shows, we rarely played opposite eachother as love interests because the tenor usu-ally gets the soprano, not the alto! saidKathleen Meredith.
A father-daughter duo will be taking thesoprano and bass soloist parts. For MollyYoung, this will be the third time that shehas done the Messiah with her father, theRev. David Young.
I always have a great time performingwith my dad. He has a wonderful way of
bringing humor to any situation and I neverget stressed out when he's on-stage with me.I grew up listening to my parents singingtogether all the time, and they've alwaysbeen a huge inspiration to me as a musi-cian, said Young
Currently living in Maryland, Youngperforms as a soloist and chamber musician.Solo appearances include Mozart'sRequiem, Vivaldi's Gloria, Charpentier'sMesse de Minuit and Bernstein's ChichesterPsalms. She can also be heard on theGrammy-nominated recording of Brahms'
Ein deutsches Requiem produced by theMiami-based ensemble Seraphic Fire withthe Professional Choral Institute. She has
performed with the Concert Artists ofBaltimore, The Washington Chorus,Peabody Opera Theatre and the AmericanOpera Theatre, most recently as the title rolein the world premiere of the staged version
of Melissa Dunphys Gonzales Cantata. Sheholds degrees in voice and early music fromWestern Michigan University and thePeabody Institute of the Johns HopkinsUniversity, where she studied with sopranoPhyllis Bryn-Julson. Young sings for theprofessional choirs of the Basilica of theNational Shrine of the ImmaculateConception and the National Cathedral inWashington, DC.
Her father is pastor of the FirstPresbyterian Church in Newton. DavidYoungs musical background includes a
Bachelor of Music in vocal performancefrom The College of Wooster in Wooster,Ohio, and a Master of Music in vocal per-formance from The University of Maryland,College Park. In addition to recitals andconcerts, David Young has also had leadingroles in musicals such as Jekyll and Hyde,The Secret Garden, South Pacific, and Manof LaMancha.
Another family that loves to sing togeth-er is the Iliffs. Both singers in the choir atFirst United Methodist Church in Newton,John Iliff and grandson Thatcher Iliff will
also be together in the Messiah. John Iliffwill be in the choir, while Thatcher Iliff willbe in the choir and solo on The Trumpet
Messiah...Shall Sound.
I have always had a passion for singingand have auditioned for various shows likeThe X Factor, American Idol, and The Voice.I was voted class vocalist in high school
(Newton High School) . I have performed inmany plays throughout the years, including,but not limited to,,Maximus in A FunnyThing Happened on the Way To The Forum(Sussex County Community College), Samin The Wedding Singer (Sussex CountyCommunity College), Danny in Grease (TheTheater Company in Hoboken), and TheWolf in Into The Woods (County College of
Morris). I sing with my church choir period-ically. I played trumpet for six years andhave recently been trying to teach myselfguitar and piano, said Thatcher Iliff.
He also shared that he loves singing with
his grandfather, .My grandfather is a hugerole model in my life and time spent withhim is always fun.
And so, the choir and soloists are readyand the program must go on Sunday,January 26th at 4:30pm. The First UnitedMethodist Church of Newton is handi-capped accessible and a free will offeringwill be taken.

They say that pictures
tell a story. The
images in Carol
Barrys banners certainly do
that. However, unlike the
traditional types of banners
which are fabric, these are
paintings. Barry, a Byram
resident and a retired Mt.
Olive Township art teacher,
has created works which
recall stories from the Bible
as well as works which
challenge people to think
about the world and faith.
Barry will be showing and
talking about her works at a
fundraising dinner on
February 1st at 5pm at
Stanhope United Methodist
Church at #2 Route 183
Main Street in Netcong.
Tickets are $5 per person
and can be obtained through
program coordinator Sharon
Rosequist at 973-527-4927
or the church office at 973-
347-0247. Funds raised will
benefit the church.
Local Artist to Show Works at Church Fundraiser
During the February 1st art program, Byram artist Carol Barrywill share the inspiration behind her "gifts" work.
The banners that Carol
Barry paints are a beautiful
pictorial rendition of the
Bible. They are absolutely
beautiful, and each one isvery unique. Each time you
look at them, you notice
something that you did not
see before, and they are
very thought- provoking.
She is a very talented
artist, said Rosequist, a
Netcong resident.
Barry has been painting
banners for about 20 years.
She was inspired by the art-
work shed seen in smallchurches and cathedrals
around the world. She saw
the inspiration that artwork
can give others and wanted
to do something for her
church, the First
Presbyterian Church of
Stanhope. What resulted
was a series of banners
done on a type and size of
paper that makes it easily
portable. Encouraged byothers, she has started to
show her work at other
churches.
Barry will be showing
two of her most recent

works at the fundraising dinner: What
Gifts Are in Your Hands? and a pictorial
walk through the Old and New Testament.
[What Gifts Are In Your Hands] leads
to a discussion about all the gifts God gives
to each one of us, said Barry. [The one
depicting] a walk through the old and new
testaments - starts with the trinity taking
part in creation. It includes some of the
major stories that I also have in two other
paintings, but also highlights many other
events. It ends with the New Jerusalem,"
shared Barry.
I set the painting up, discuss the inspira-
tion for the theme and the design, and then
go through the images. I usually get ques-
tions and comments during and afterwards.
I love sharing my work and especially enjoy
their reactions. I have not aggressively
sought places to go, but God is opening
doors. I rather leave it to Him, Barry said.
A question Carol Barry frequent hears is,
how long did it take you to do that?
Local Artist...Looking at Barrys artwork, it is not surpris-
ing that people ask, though the answer may
be more surprising.
The thought process takes the most
time, said Barry. She notes that it may
take up to a year for an idea to become fully
formed in her mind, though the actual paint-
ing takes far less time. Barry doesnt work
from sketches; the paintings themselves
form concretely in her mind.
While enjoying Barrys works and the
dinner, those attending will also be helping
the Stanhope United Methodist Church.
The funds raised will go to the general
account of the church to help it with its
everyday operating expenses. However, the
funds are not the only benefit.
The Rev. Tom Kinter, pastor of the
church, shared, A fundraiser like this event
helps the church in a couple of ways beyond
just raising funds. It is a time of fellowship
and invitation for the community and
church to come together. So, we always
have good food at church events. We have
time to just to be with people. [Its] a great
time for the community to join the church in
a relaxed setting and to get to know one
another.

er trouble. In the end, Hubie finds the
courage to stand up to the bully and do the
right thing-your whole family will cheer
him on! The Growing Stage is bringing
Hubie's daydreams alive through the use of
state-of-the art film techniques, while his
real-life struggles are brought to life on our

Now that the holidays are over it is
time to rebalance your stuff.
January tends to be a low-key
month for most people. This lends itself to
starting off the New Year right by givingproper closure to the holidays.
Holiday Dcor Items - Before putting
away your holiday decorations, take a criti-
cal look at what items you love and which
ones you continually pack up for the next
year but do not use. Donate or toss the items
that have not been used in 2 years. Pack up
and label the items you plan to keep, num-
ber the boxes and keep a list of: box num-
bers, contents and storage locations to refer-
ence next year.Returns - Keep a bag or bin in your car
with your post-holiday returns (including
gift receipts).
Gift Cards - Gift cards often go unused
because of being forgotten or lost after the
holidays. Keep them in a plastic zip lock
Getting Organized After the Holidayspouch in your purse or car for easy access
when you are out and about.
In with the New, Out with the Old -
Assess the new items you have received and
take a critical look at your existing items.Decide which of your older items can be
gotten rid of through donating, re-gifting,
etc.
Thank you notes The holiday gift-
receiving season is a great time for kids to
learn about being thankful and polite. It is
an opportunity for them to learn to write
thank you notes for the gifts they receive.
Take advantage of the relative calm of
January by finishing off your holidays in an
organized manner use this time to
regroup after the holidays and start your
2014 off right.

Did you know that the fair market rentfor a two-bedroom apartment inMorris County is $1,289 per month?
In order to afford this apartment, a householdwould need to earn over $51,000 per year. Atthe New Jersey minimum wage of $7.25 anhour- thats 135 hours per week, 52 weeks ayear!
The cost of housing and the severelyreduced job market is turning homelessnessinto a reality for more New Jersey familiesevery single day.
Often homelessness is associated witholder people or people with drug or alcoholabuse problems. However the average age ofa homeless person in the United States is six
years old.According to a study done by the UnitedWay in Morris County the poverty rate -income of $20,000 or less for a family of four- is 4 percent. However $60,000 is the mini-mum annual salary required for family of 4 toafford the basics of self-sufficiency: housing,child care, food, transportation, and healthcare
Households with incomes in the middle ofthat range are considered Asset Limited,Income Constrained, Employed (ALICE).They are working individuals and/or familieswith an annual income of between $20,000and $60,000; not enough to be financiallyself-sufficient. In this economy many ALICEhouseholds are walking a financial tightrope,

T
he Morris County
Sheriff's Office is
considered a special-ty organization which pro-
vides services to all munici-
palities in the county - and it
does so with expertise and
efficiency.
Undersheriff Richard A.
Wall, Bureau of Law
Enforcement, and other
officials from the sheriff's
office met with the
Morristown News last
month, offering an insidelook at the impressive facil-
ity that they run. This story
is the second in an ongoing
series about the Morris
County Sheriff's Office, and
it highlights the Emergency
Services section of the sher-
iff's office.
Undersheriff Wall
offered a tour of the Barbara
Ridder-Irwin K-9 Facility to
start with, and it proved tobe quite clean and comfort-
able for their dogs. The
facility is equipped with
special training equipment
for the dogs, as well as aheated housing area with
heavy duty safety fencing.
Wall said the original
facility was built with no
taxpayer dollars, and Sgt.
Mark Chiarolanza said the
K-9 unit has seven officials,
with an eighth serving our
country in Afghanistan.
Ridder-Irwin, a Harding
Township resident, donated
$80,000 toward the project,and others donated services
and/or materials toward the
construction of the facility,
including Paul Cullen
Plumbing, John Crimi, and
Greg Spitzer, and Walter
Morris.
The dogs will live
healthy, long lives in this
top-notch facility, and they
will be ready for their work
out in the field. They will
provide a great service to
the county by sniffing out
drugs, explosives, and fire
accelerants, and help offi-
cials secure many situationswhich would otherwise be
even more dangerous with-
out the help of their dogs.
The K-9 facility was
designed with the best prac-
tices kept in mind - many of
which were suggested by
"Seeing Eye" of Morris
Township. The K-9 facility
features an air circulation
system which keeps their
living quarters clean and inbetter condition than per-
haps what many homeown-
ers can offer to their dogs,
and it also features small
doors at one end of their
pens that allow dogs to get
outside for fresh air.
Officials can easily clean
these pens and hose down
floors when the dogs are let
outside.
In the end, the K-9 dogs
get first-class treatment so
they can be at their best for
their work in the field.
Next, Chief WarrantOfficer Howard Ryan
offered a tour of the
Evidence Processing
Facility, and adjoining lab,
where intricate work is done
on crime scene materials
and evidence. Sheriff
Edward V. Rochford called
Ryan one of the greatest
crime scene investigators in
the northeast.
Ryan and his team of
experts determine results
associated with everything
from bullet fragments, fin-
gerprints, DNA samples,blood samples, and much
more. Ryan also serves as
an educator for law enforce-
ment officials around the
nation.
This is a great benefit to
Morris County municipali-
ties, which can send their
officers to class "in county"
- instead of having to pay
for airfare and lodging so
officers can attend class on
the west coast or in the
south, for instance. Police
chiefs in Morris County
municipalities also do not"lose" their officers for, say,
a week, because they had to
travel a long distance for
such a class.
Ryan said the Morris
County facility is state-of-
the-art, and the top-notch
equipment and intricate
processes that are the norm
here, could certainly be
equally baffling and impres-
sive both at the same time to

an individual not familiar with this line of
work.
Det. Jamie Rae offered insight on the
Mobile Command Center and the Mobile
Crime Lab, which provide sheriff's officeofficials with a safe, excellent communica-
tion network and portable crime lab while
out in the field. The Mobile Crime Lab was
funded by a grant from Homeland Security,
and allows sheriff's office officials to
process evidence quickly and effectively in
the most pressing emergency situations.
Doug Laird, who will be commander of
the bomb squad unit come March,
explained how their technical equipment
helps them effectively process bomb
threats, suspicious packages, and muchmore. A super-heavy-duty "containment
vessel" allows the squad to remotely deto-
nate a bomb inside it and even sample any
harmful chemicals it would otherwise emit
freely into the air.
As with all facets of the sheriff's office,
officials go through intense training to per-
form these duties in the field at an expert
level. Indeed, the Sheriff's Emergency
Response Team also secures hostage situa-
tions, and performs high-angle rescues, just
to give a few more examples of their work.Det. Sgt. Phil DiGavero explained the
process of organizing, securing and protect-
ing every piece of evidence that enters the
evidence management facility. He demon-
strated how the state-of-the-art computer
network and manual processes ensure that
each piece of evidence is documented, pro-
tected and ready for official access - andonly under the most secure conditions.
Det. Sgt. Michael Puzio offered insight
on the different types of warrants that the
sheriff's office will process, adding that offi-
cials in this division are out on the beat as
well a great deal of the time. Countless tel-
evision shows have mimicked the work
done for real in this and other divisions of
the sheriff's office.
"We are the enforcement end of the war-
rants," he said.
Next, a tour of the Legal ServicesDivision was offered. This division serves
legal documents, such as summons which
initiate a lawsuit. Official court documents
are overseen and enforced within this divi-
sion of the sheriff's office.
Det. Phillip Mangiafridda, offered a final
glimpse of some of the operations within
the sheriff's office: he demonstrated the
benefits of the "Faro" scanner, which can
scan and provide a superb video document
of a crime scene.
The scanner is secured in a chosen cor-
ner of a room, for instance, and it will cre-
ate a high-definition visual account of this
Morris County Sheriff's Office...continued from page 16 crime scene.
When the scanner is, for instance,
secured then in the opposite end of the
room, it will complete its visual account of
the crime scene.
Law enforcement officials will now havea superior and comprehensive 3-D video
document of a crime scene - one which they
can now "move through" and "view" from
any imaginable angle. This technology aids
officials in solving some of the most trou-
bling cases - murders, suicides, and aggra-
vated assaults.
In last month's tour of the sheriff's office
facilities, it is evident that all if its officials
are impressed with Sheriff Rochford's high
standards, thorough ways, and his desire to
constantly improve. Rochford himself islikewise impressed with their specific areas
of expertise and is proud to have officials
with the strongest of qualifications.
Be on the lookout for additional stories
on the Morris County Sheriff's Office.

ticipation that is not available in a traditional shelter setting.Family promise volunteers and their families open their con-gregations, schedules, wallets and their hearts to the familiesbeing served.
For Crystal, finding Family Promises was a life changing
event. We had no place to live, she said. Thats a hard truthto accept, especially for a parent. For Crystal, a single motherwith two infants and pregnant with a third, the move into theFamily Promise of Morris County Emergency ShelterProgram was not only a place for her family to live but also aplace for them to thrive.
Crystal became homeless after her grandparents were nolonger able to continue to helping her and her growing fami-ly. After coming to Family Promise, staff and volunteers pro-vided her with financial literacy education, support in com-pleting her high school equivalency diploma, and help sortingout all those issues that come with motherhood. I didntknow theyd do that, she said. I thought it was just a placeto sleep.
Crystal began working full time while living in the shelter.In addition, she completed her GED program and received herhigh school equivalency diploma. Equipped with some newlife skills, enjoying the sense of accomplishment that comesfrom achieving ones goals and dreams, and benefiting fromthe on-going support of Family Promise, Crystal is now look-ing to further her education. Just recently, she began theprocess of enrolling in nursing school.
What sets Family Promises apart and what Crystal discov-ered is that its not just a place to sleep its a place to begin anew life.
Like Crystal, many of the Family Promise success storiescan be linked back to its volunteers, people like Lance and
Nancy Kraai and a group of other volunteers that included ateacher and some young mothers with small children. All ofthese volunteers worked with Crystal for 18 months to helpher develop new skill sets which would allow her to thriveindependently. The group focused key areas, such as generallife, financial and, just as importantly, parenting skills.Crystal has been on her own since she was 14, explainedLance. She never had the chance to learn parenting within afamily. Its hard to learn discipline with children when younever had any. What is proper discipline for a 1-year-old, a 5-year-old?
Nancy said that, as a child, Crystal saw her sister removedfrom their home by state authorities. In her young mind,
Crystal concluded that her sister was taken because she criedtoo much. As a mother, he said, Crystal was determined that itwould not happen to her children and she did whatever shecould to stop them from crying. Working with the Adopt-a-Family volunteers, Crystal learned how to discipline in loveas a parent, said Nancy. She is an awesome mom she justneeded some help.
Since leaving the Emergency Shelter Program, Crystalsdays are filled with her new job caring for an elderly personand getting her children to school and day care. It was a boostfor my confidence, she said of her time at Family Promise.That was hard for me, I didnt have confidence. It is still hardfor me. But Crystal didnt leave the shelter alone. Family
Promises Community Support Program staff still supportsher efforts to move forward. I tell people that my time in theemergency shelter was good for me and my children, shesaid. My children had clothes, toys and had new people tomeet. The shelter for a woman my age with children is a safeplace to live.
Now 25, Crystal said there was one very important lessonshe learned while at Family Promise: I have big plans for myfamily, she said. I realized that when I am 30 or 40, I wouldnot be able to live the way I was living. Family Promise is somuch more than a place to sleep: it is a home base, a safe placefor children, a place where parents can stop a moment andbreathe, assess lifes challenges and opportunities, and make a
plan for the future; it is a community of supporters, teachers

Finding A Different Way... and friends.According to the Annual Homelessness Assessment
Report the top five contributing factors to homelessness(AHAR 2011) are a lost job/cannot find work: 34.7 percent;eviction: 34.2 percent; housing costs too high: 28.5 percent;relationship/family breakup or death: 23.8 percent; domesticviolence: 17.8 percent.
Often people are blindsided by one of these events andthey need time, sometimes a lot of time to get back on theirfeet. Family Promise of Morris County allows its families tostay in the shelter for as long as they need to get back on theirfeet. For some that may be a couple of weeks; for others, sixmonths or a year. Many traditional shelters have time limitsthat can force families to find other temporary shelter beforeaccumulating enough resources or completing the necessaryeducation and training to obtain gainful employment andindependent housing. By not imposing a hard line time limiton residents Family Promise is able to ensure that families arewell prepared and in a position to secure a permanent place inthe community.
Families in crisis need time to develop the skills to navi-
gate the trauma of homelessness and begin the transition from
poverty to long term self-sufficiency. This involves thingsmost people may take for granted, such as obtaining basic ID,developing resources like a support system, and most impor-tantly feeling as if they are worthy of success, said ExecutiveDirector, Joann Bjornson. Family Promise of Morris Countyfocuses on the families resilience and natural strengths to cre-ate individual goal plans that empower everyone with oppor-tunities and choices.
Family Promise of Morris County is a non-sectarian, not-for-profit organization dedicated to ending the crisis of home-lessness faced by Morris County families by partnering withother public and private agencies, religious congregations andcommunity volunteers to provide shelter, case managementand mentoring services leading to self-sufficiency.
Family Promise of Morris County values community vol-unteers and relationships. Anyone wishing to offer time utiliz-ing their skills and interests, volunteer as a family, or to sup-port long term self-sufficiency for local families with a finan-cial contribution, may contact Joann Bjornson, ExecutiveDirector, at 973.998.0820 or [email protected]

On February 1st, from 10am to 4pm,the word on eveyones lips in theMeeting Hall in Olde Layfayette
Village will be lace. It is the 29th annual
Lace Day, presented by the Lost Art Lacers ofNorth Jersey. For many people, lace is some-thing that you buy from the store, readymade,and add to items such as handkerchiefs, wed-ding gowns, and valentines to give them aspecial look. However, the lacers are keepingalive the tradition of making handmade lace.And, through Lace Day demonstrations, exhi-bitions, try me tables and workshops, theywill be sharing that tradition with childrenand adults.( Workshops will be held onFebruary 2nd as well as the 1st. Pre-registra-tion is needed for all workshops. See the links
at http://www.lostartlacers.org/events.htmfor details.) Lace making supplies may alsobe purchased at the event. The event is opento the public. Olde Lafayette village is locat-ed at the intersections of Routes 15 and 94 inLafayette.
There are many varieties of lace and manyuses for it as will be seen on Lace Day,through the work and efforts of members ofthe Lost Art Lacers of North Jersey.
Dotty Wolfe, of Stanhope, has createdpieces of jewelry and embellished collarswith her lace. Wolfe got into lacemaking at
the encouragement of a neighbor who was alacemaker and wanted to keep the tradition
alive. Wolfe has done that and quite well.She has won many ribbons at the New JerseyState Fair for her work. Much of what shedoes is tatting. Tatting is a lace made by loop-ing and knotting thread on a small hand shut-tle.
A lacemaker for about 35 years, Lee Dalyof Newton will be a jack-of-all trades on Lace
An original lace tulip design by Lee Daly of

Candy gets eaten and flowers will die. But a love song
in ones ears will linger in ones heart and carry on.
The Morris Music Men- Morris Countys premier barber-
shop harmony chorus- will be singing quartets in celebra-
tion of Valentines Day. Each February the non-profit group
offers Singing Valentines as a way to raise funds.
On Thursday, Feb. 13, and Friday, Feb, 15, men from the
chorus will be singing love songs at any location through-
out Morris County. For $50, a quartet of men decked out in
tuxedos will serenade sweethearts, office staffers or clientsat work, home, restaurants, or just about anywhere in
beautiful four-part harmony. The package includes a beau-
tiful long-stemmed red rose and a special Valentines Day
card.
Singing Valentines are a unique way to say I care! as
stated in a press release. Customers will not only be send-
ing love through song but will be helping to support the old
barbershop style of singing.
This is one of our major fundraisers, says Terry Scullin
of Morristown, president of The Morris Music Men. All
proceeds are allocated to the non-profit organization to pay
for expenses such as hall rental and director fees.Its a style of singing that we are trying to preserve and
perpetuate, says Scullin, 73. Trying to keep that sound
alive is important to all of us. Songs are delivered in four-
part harmony- tenor, lead, baritone and base- acapella, bar-
bershop style.
The Morris Music Men chorus and its affiliated quartets
are part of the international 30,000-member Barbershop
Harmony Society. About 20 men throughout Morris County
meet weekly to rehearse. Most of the men are 60 years old
or older; the youngest member is a recent college graduate.
For the Valentines fundraiser, about 12 of the men from
the group will be split up into quartets and travel through-out the county to deliver Singing Valentines. Each group
will be singing two simple love songs: Let Me Call You
Sweetheart and Heart of My Heart.
Those songs were selected because every barber-shop-
per in the world knows those songs, Scullin says.
Last year, Scullin recalls traveling more than 200 miles
to sing quartets for the Valentines fundraiser. As a group,
there were 35 requests for Singing Valentines, of which
Scullin performed 16 of them.
We can be out from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., says Scullin, who
has been singing Valentines with the group since 2005. It is
a huge amount of fun doing this, and it raises money to
Capture Your Valentine With Love Songs By Quartet Singerskeep the chorus going.
Its a little scary at first, says Scullin, singing with
three different guys. But once he hears the applause and
sees the expression on his customers face,, his time singing
is worth every song.
One of his Valentine gigs that stole his heart was a 97-
year old woman who bought a singing Valentine for her 92-
year old companion. Each lost their spouse and met each
other at a senior exercise class, describes Scullin. While his
quartet was singing to them, the companions just held each
others hand and looked at each other.
All of this is so much fun, says Scullin, who sings
tenor. Its a great, great fun thing to do. Ive always loved
music but never been able to play anything. Im a klutz
when it came to playing piano or guitar. But using vocals is
different. Its just such a joy to sing; to sing in front of oth-
ers and get applause, even learning the music. Its just a
great deal of fun. You are with a bunch of wonderful people
sharing a hobby.
The Morris Music Men is currently one of the finalists in
the Morristowns Got Talent Contest. It is one of 16 final-
ists out of 70 acts that will be performing at the Mayo
Performing Arts Center in late February.

Other performances have been at local
assisted living places, The Cliffs in East
Orange, Morris View Nursing Home. In
August, the group gets together with other
chorus groups and sings at the SomersetPatriots Baseball Game.
Another big fundraiser hosted by Morris
Music Men is an annual concert in October
at Drew University Concert Hall.
Scullin has been singing in the group
since 2002, when he retired as a copy writer
for BBDO Advertising agency in New
York. His participation stems from the love
of singing.
There are very few of us that are profes-
sional singers, says Scullin. I sing in the
shower and sing along with the radio.Other members of the chorus have sung in
their church choirs or in high school or col-
lege.
We are all amateurs but we all enjoy
singing and acapella harmony, he says.
Most of the members cant even read music,
says Scullin, so they learn through tapes and
CDs with words and listening rather than
reading music.
Scullin has also branched off and per-
forms in a separate organized quartet, The
Four Old Parts, which is open for bookings
to sing at birthday parties, senior or libraryevents. Call 973-540-1648to inquire.
To reserve a Singing Valentine or for
more information, call 973-625-2842; or
email svdavid.sipple @gmail.com.
Deadline to order is Tuesday, Feb. 11, at 9
p.m.
The chorus meets Tuesday evenings at
Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Chatham
and always welcomes new singers. No
experience necessary; free singing lessons
are provided. Learn more atwww.morris-
musicmen.org.Funding has been made possible in part
from the Arts Council of the Morris Area
through the New Jersey State Council on
the Arts/Department of State, a Partner
Agency of the National Endowment for the
Arts.

Day, managing the event, teaching and demo-ing. Winner of many ribbons at the SussexCounty Farm & Horse Show including theMiriam Forbes Award for Excellence inLacemaking( twice), Daly will be showing
her original design of a tulip and demonstrat-ing bobbin lace and needle lace.
Bobbin lace, also called pillow lace, isworked with bobbins which are wound withthread. Pairs of bobbins make stitches on apattern called a pricking and pins are insertedinto the pricking to hold the stitch until thelacemaker gets further along. The pins arethen pulled out and the design stays. Bobbinlace had also been called bone lace becausethe bobbins used to be made from bone,explained lacer Pat Morris of Franklin.
Also, exhibiting bobbin lace will be Clara
Eastby of Franklin and Mary McGuinness ofDenville. A ribbon winner at past state fairs,Eastby will be showing a Tonder bobbin lacebookmark and Schneeberger silhouettes ofGerman Smokers. McGuinness will beexhibiting some pieces and demonstrating aTorchon bobbin lace pattern. She has wonribbons at the New Jersey State Fair for thelast two years and the Miriam Forbes Awardfor Excellence in Lacemaking in 2008 andagain in 2013
For those who want to try at a hand at it,workshops will be available for children and
adults to be introduced to the art of lace mak-ing. In addition to Lee, others who will beteaching include Morris and Barbara Saltern.
Saltern, from Nazareth, Pennsylvania, whowill be teaching an adult beginners class, hasbeen making lace for almost 20 years andreceived the best of show award a number ofyears ago at the Blue Valley Fair and wonthird place twice at the International
Organization of Lace, Inc. convention,Morris will be teaching a childrens work-
shop (choice of making a bracelet or book-mark) and an adult class.
Flanders, Schneeburger, and Tonder maysounds like town names, but they are alsonames of types of bobbin lace. Morris will beteaching all of them at the adult class.
All three originated in the same geo-graphic area. Flanders is a beautiful designthat looks like wicker caning and uses eightpair of bobbins to form the stitch.Schneeburger comes from a German area and
is a tape lace that uses six to ten pair of bob-bins. Tonder is a Danish point ground lacewhich uses very fine thread. Tonder, an oldtown in the western part of Denmark, hadbeen a seaport on the North Sea, sharedMorris, whos been a lacer for 35 years.
Like many of the lacers, Morris gets moreout of her craft than a pretty piece of lace.
I love making lace. It is so relaxing and Ilove demonstrating lace, the wonder andamazement in the eyes of the visitors[on LaceDay] is rewarding she said.
