Island of civilityDear Editor:

I could be wrong.But the first time I heard the descrip-

tion, referring to Claremont, "Island ofcivility in a sea of slobs," was more than40 years ago in the old COURIER officeon Harvard Avenue in the Village.

Martin Weinberger, the late, great edi-tor of the COURIER, recounted to methen that certain anonymous wags hadcoined the saying in an earlier genera-tion. I did not get the impression thatthe pithy aphorism was Martin's, as hewas always quick to attribute whatneeded attribution and was ornery

enough to have taken pride in the state-ment were it his of which to be proud.Yes, Mr. Valentine has dredged up a

chestnut, if you will, from over 40years ago.

With just a tad more effort, perhaps hemight be able to recite what juicy stuffRichard Nixon (not a crook) had to sayabout our good Congressman JerryVoorhis in 1946. Inquiring minds here inthe Athens of the Inland Empire wouldlike to know.

A memory is a terrible thing to waste.I could be wrong.

Curves for WomenDear Editor,

It is a great loss to Claremont thatCurves for Women has been squeezed

out of business by practices of the cen-tral corporation. As a regular attendeefor 13 years, I witnessed managementthat produced a community center forwomen in Claremont. Hours were

adapted to accommodate everyone, fromothers who came in after their childrewere off to school to women whosework schedules only allowed exercisetime in the early morning or late after-noon and early evening.

Encouragement and direction inhealthy dieting were offered. New ap-proaches such as Zumba were includedMusic and conversation were constantcompanions. Women from Curves rec-ognized each other all about town be-cause of our half-hours of exercisetogether. All this came about because osuperlative management and staff.

It is sad that the controlling corporatbody of Curves has been losing its sensof mission in the United States. ThanksDana and Dianne and all who improvethe lives of women via Curves.

Political cultureDear Editor,

Thank you for the Almanac. It is atimely and refreshing antidote to thenegative letters that have appeared in thCOURIER lately.

It is clear that Michael Valentine andJoe Farrell dislike the political culture oClaremont, and they take it very personally. Of course, it is unpleasant to be in

the political minority, but no one has amonopoly on that experience of frustration. We've all been there.

Mr. Farrell's opponents on measureCL certainly suffered the agony of de-feat in 2010. And many of us in Clare-mont have endured several decadeswithout any acceptable congressmen ostate legislators. Presidents, governorsand city council members have been amixed lot. That's politics: win some,lose some.

Sometimes it gets personal. Mr. Far-rell is offended by Peter Weinberger'ssuggestion that Mr. Valentine couldmove to another city if life in Claremonis so intolerable to him. In response, M

Farrell launches a grossly insensitivecounterattack, which indicates a stun-ning lack of cognizance that Peter Weibergers comment is perfectlyreasonable, and understandable, in lighof Mr. Valentine's criticism of Mr. Weinberger's father, who died last July. Thatis not an insignificant detail.

Ironically, Mr. Farrell considers himself a significant victim of unfair treat-ment, possibly because so many people

in Claremont tend to disagree with his politics, anddon't want to vote for him.

Mr. Farrell's approach to public discourse might bepart of the problem. In his tirade against what he per-ceives as a locally prevalent love it or leave it atti-tude, Mr. Farrell equates disgruntled Claremonterswith women suffragettes, blacks in the South duringthe 1960s, anti-war protesters and gays. This stretchfor common cause is absurdly over the top, as well ashypocritical. Conservative politicians, such as Mr.Farrell, have historically rejected the political aspira-tions of each of those groups. Most Claremont votersknow that, and are not so easily fooled.

Are people who disagree with Mr. Farrell automat-ically snobs for expressing opinions, as he implies?There are snobs, and slobs, everywhere, but is thatreally so important? The substance of political debatematters more than superficial labels. In any case, sin-cere thanks to the COURIER for continuing to pro-vide a public forum for all views.

Raising city speed limitsDear Editor,

Having recently relocated to Claremont, and toRadcliffe between Indian Hill and Mills in particular,I am very concerned about the city's plan to raise thespeed limit on this stretch of road, and not just for myfamily's safety. Speeds traveled along this roadwayare excessive. So far, we have not seen one ticket is-

sued. Many people and especially children and fami-lies use this street to walk and bike to and from

Cahuilla and Chaparral parks and Chaparral Schooland the high school. Changing the limit on this streetwould not help slow traffic and would likely encour-age faster driving for some.

The reason speeds are so high is likely due to sev-eral things including street width, lack of speed limitsignage and lack of enforcement. Where cars do slowdown is midblock where the 25 mph speed limit signis posted. Another is the severe bend in the road.

Both the bend and the proxim-ity to the schools and parks in thearea are enough to allow a vari-ance to the state guideline. Inci-dentally, many state guidelinesare ignored by local municipali-ties. I have to wonder why thisone, created decades ago andmostly for highways, is all of asudden being taken so seriously.Furthermore, since the 210 con-struction, Radcliffe and Scrippsare an alternative to the better-pa-trolled Baseline, for commutersexiting the freeway. The bottomline is that raising the speed limit does not help andmore likely will put our families at further risk.

There are other solutions that will protect both mo-torists and pedestrians. For instance, there are similarstretches of street near parks and schools in SouthPasadena where we lived before this, and rather thanraise the speed limit where cars were driving too fast,the city installed traffic-slowing measures, evenshared bike lanes, to help ensure the safety of cityresidents. Claremont is a similarly family-orientedsmall town, whose residents pride themselves on thecity's walkability and public safety. Why aren't we

doing the same? Increasing speed limits to conformto state guidelinesdespite any real state pressureto conform, and despite any proof that tickets arebeing fought and dismissed by the courts, seems negligent at best, and is a waste of tax payer dollars andstaff time. Do the right thing, don't conform to out-dated and dangerous guidelines.

Trip down memory laneDear Editor:

I have really enjoyed your coverage of the city. Ilove the COURIER. I probably saved this becausemy neighbors were in the pictures. My last highschool graduate was in 2011. Ive enjoyed your pic-tures from the past this summer. I thought youdenjoy this very timely group of kindergartners pic-tured in the paper in 1999. I found a few recent gradin the bunch last seen on the CHS theater stages.

CUSD board has record-quick meeting, discusses new management position

READERS COMMENTS

The Thursday, August 9 meeting ofthe Claremont Unified School Dis-trict Board of Education adjourned

in record time.Only a handful of community members filed into the

air conditioned board room at the gatherings 6:30 p.m.start time. And with no public comments or presenta-tions from student council members, they headed backout into the evening heat at 7:30 p.m.

Much on the agenda was routine.Waivers were requested for a number of Claremont

High School students over the age of 16 who have takenthe required 2 years of physical education, but haventpassed the state-designated physical fitness test (PFT)administered to all 9th graders. Achievement of the fit-ness standard is based upon a score falling in theHealthy Fitness Zone in 5 out of 6 fitness areas.

Senate Bills 78 and 601 require that students con-tinue to take PE until they pass the test. The boardokayed a waiver from further PE requirements for 55CHS students who may have physical issues that makepassing the test a challenge, allowing room in their

schedules for courses like English, math, science, so-cial science, foreign language or arts.

The board granted another waiver, also routine, ex-empting Danbury Elementary School and CommunityDay School from an education code requiring eachschool site to have a council with a specificprincipal/teacher/parent/student ratio.

Pursuant to Education Code 52852, an elementaryschool council must feature at least 10 members, in-cluding the principal, 3 teachers and one other schoolemployee, and 5 parents or community members. Atthe secondary level, the school must have 12 councilmembers, including the principal, 3 teachers and 2 otherschool employees, 3 students and 3 parents or commu-

nity members. Because it can be difficult for a smallerschool to maintain a council of this size, the legislationallows waivers for sites with less than 120 students whoshare a common school site or curriculum.

With the waiver approved, Danbury and CommunityDay will continue with their practice of sharing a com-

bined council with the schools to which they are ad-joined, Sumner Elementary and San Antonio HighSchool, respectively. By state mandate, they must re-turn to the board every 2 years to request the waiver.

The school board also voted to approve new job de-scriptions created by the districts Human Resourcesdepartment after a recent review to ensure language de-scribing management positions aligns with current du-ties and job functions.

For the position of Principal, San Antonio HighSchool and Community Day School, the rewrite in-volved a slight tweak of the title, which used to readPrincipal, Alternative Education, San Antonio HighSchool and Community Day. Another new description,however, involved an entirely new position, that of Co-ordinator of Service Center and Custodial Services.

The person in this position would be directly re-sponsible to Rick Cota, who is executive director of theService Center as well as of Nutrition Services. It wasnoted the Service Center, which Mr. Cota used to runwith the help of 4 employees, is down to one employee.Money for a new custodial employee was allotted forthe last school year, but the position remained unfilledwhile Mr. Cota determined what kind of employeewould best fill district needs, noted Lisa Shoemaker, as-sistant superintendent of business services.

With the start of the new school year approaching onWednesday, August 29, Human Resources plans to putthe word out about the position immediately, a plan thathad board member Sam Mowbray expressing someconcern. He said he would prefer to move forward onhiring for this new position after the November elec-

tion, since so much with regards to state funding fschools hinges on the passage of Governor JerrBrowns tax initiative. After making sure no one woube hired without board approval, Mr. Mowbray addehis consent to the approval of the job description.

The next meeting of the CUSD Board of Educatio

will be held on Wednesday, August 22 at 6:30 p.m.Sarah [email protected]

San Antonia Community Hospital (SACH) wasranked in the top 50 of all California hospitals lastmonth for superior patient safety. The Upland-basedhospital was given the prestigious honor by Con-sumer Reports, the largest independent consumer ratings organization.

For the first time, Consumer Reports rated hospi-tals on a 100-point scale based on 6 patient safetymeasures. The information was based on the latestavailable data from various government and inde-pendent sources.

Examples of measures SACH has put into place include a recently implemented hospital-wide electronmedical record system, which improves patient safetby increasing efficiency and streamlining communi-cation between members of the healthcare team.

The safety of our patients is paramount, and wecontinually work to improve our safety measures anthe quality of care our patients receive, said Harris Koenig, president and chief executive officer ofSACH. Our physicians and clinicians work togetheto develop safety initiatives, set specific goals and utlize best practices. We have worked for years to de-velop this culture of safety.

The board of Claremont Heritagehad no idea how fitting the titleHot Tequila Nightsa benefit sup-

porting the preservation of Padua Hills

Theatrewould turn out to be. HeldWednesday on one of the hottest nights ofthe summer, with the mariachi playingand the tequila flowing, it couldnt bemore perfectly tailored, or the eveningscelebration more appropriate.

A small crowd gathered at the Padua Hills court-yard amid a welcome breeze to take part in theevening fundraiser. Sponsored by Claremont Her-itage, the event aimed to ensure the story of the leg-endary theater is not soon forgotten.

Its nice to be able to use the space and kind ofbring the life back to it, said Claremont Heritage Ex-ecutive Director David Shearer. The building is nowmainly used for private events. This is another way tohave it available for the public to see and at the sametime help preserve the building even more.

It was an evening reminiscent of the theatersglory days, with the low rumble of cheerful chatterand merry click-of-the-heels of the folklorico dancersin their multi-hued dresses drifting through the nightair. It wasnt so long ago that this same enchantmentfilled the citys beloved playhouse.

The Padua Hills Theatre was established in the late1920s on land owned by Bess and Herman Garner ofPadua Hills, Inc. The theater played into the Garnersvision of building a hillside community centered on thearts. The playhouse was known not only for the theatri-cal endeavors of The Claremont Players, a thespiangroup of which the Garners were members, but also for

the Padua Hills dancers and the rich Mexican-Ameri-can culture fostered by the employees of the theater.

The theater is noted for its contribution to the enter-tainment field, but also for the dignity and cultural prideit brought to the Mexican people living in California,wrote the late Claremont historian Judy Wright.

What better way to celebrate that rich artistic andcultural history than through partaking in the art oftequila, noted attendee Alicia Cerrillos.

Tequila is the heart of Mexico, according to MsCerrillos, co-owner of Agave Girls, who provided thevenings selection of artisan tequilas. Its a big par

of the Mexican culture and connects perfectly with the event.The drink was a definite draw for Margaret Horstmeyer, a tequila

lover from Idaho in town visiting friend Patty DeWet, a former Clare-mont resident.

I love the smoothness, Ms. Horstmeyer, said sampling a selection.It was a walk down memory lane for Ms. DeWet, who returned to

the theater for the first time since her Claremont childhood. She fondlyremembers riding her horse as a young girl in the Padua hillside, whichlooked a lot different back then...there were hardly any houses. Shenoted that the theater today is just as beautiful as I remember.

The Padua Hills Theatre is nestled at the front of Ms. DeWetsmemories of Padua Hills. It was where she tried gazpachoatomato-based, vegetable soup served chilledfor the first time.Though no longer living in Claremont, Ms. DeWet wanted to supportClaremont Heritages endeavors in order to allow others to havememories of the theater, like hers, for years to come.

Its a beautiful place and it would be nice to allow other people tocontinue to come and enjoy it, Ms. DeWet said.

Though the theater went dark in the early 1970s, it is the hope ofMr. Shearer that continued repairs and additions to the building willhelp its purpose remain strong. A couple projects envisioned includeadding iron-wrought fixtures similar to ones previously adhered tothe buildings walls, and constructing an exterior fountain. A waterline was added when the theater was first built, but for an unknownreason the fountain was never installed.

We will put that in based on the original plan, using vintage tilesfrom Mexico, Mr. Shearer said. Its going to look exactly as itwould have looked if installed when the building was first built.

With continued work, Mr. Shearer hopes the Padua Hills Theatrecan remain a Claremont destination for years to come.

Its important for us to celebrate some of the restoration projectsthat have been successful here in Claremont and continue to preservethem for people to enjoy, he said. These events allow the commu-nity to participate in that process as well.

London has weather. I often stoodat my window or on the street and

just watched the weather enter,move and change from one extreme tothe other. Living here in southern Cali-fornia, I am used to what you see iswhat you get for the day. In London, thechanges happen almost every minute.

One dresses to shed as the day progresses, or to addon. Clouds drift by or gallop at a ferocious speed.Their colors range from white to gray to black inalmost the blink of an eye. A raincoat is a fashionstatement. Umbrellas must not only keep one dry butwithstand windy gusts and for one not used tocarrying an umbrella, I nearly always left mine eitherat home, in a cab or at an unremembered somewhere.

I came to London this year on the fourteenth ofJune, a summer month, as it was already warming uphere in Claremont. There in London it was cool andwet much of the time and the fashion police were

busily checking out the boots, jackets and raincoats.

For me, it was perfect weather as I positively droopin the hot weather, but locals were not happy.

I was visiting London and my good friends on myyearly pilgrimage of pleasure as well as to find all thespecial pieces I use in my jewelry. This was also theyear we celebrated the memory of a dear friend whohad recently passed away with a 90th birthday partyand a memorial gathering. This visit was built aroundthose 2 happenings. It was very satisfying to connectwith old and new friends who had known my friend,Leah, and share our personal experiences, sing anddance, remembering the joy she brought to all of us.

I am especially lucky. I rent a flat from a dearfriend right in the center of London, close toeverything on foot, by bus or by underground. Thereare plenty of coffee bars near by, a good grocerystore, restaurants, small shops and 3 museums within

walking distance. Walking a bitfurther brings one to lovely delisfilled with exotic foods, bakeries,

bookstores and all the bars onecould crave. The street is quiet and the flat is smalland complete and has become my second home.

My days were structured around friendships andantiques and flea markets. For antiques, I have myfavorite markets and can spend hours poking aboutthe stalls looking for just the right find for my jewelryremakes. I have been doing this for years and, luckily,many of the same people still sit in the same places.They chat among themselves and are as entertainingas what they have placed on the tables. Prices are

higher and many of the pieces are no longer as old asthey once were.

On Mondays, Covent Gardens Jubilee Hall is anantique paradise and this year I went twice. OnSaturdays, Portobello Road is jammed-packed withtourists looking for a treasure. A jumble of languagescan be heard, and one is pushed and shoved becausethe area did not expand to accommodate the

population increase.Never mind, it is great fun and full of high

expectations. Along one side are all the shops andsmall antique malls filled with tiny booths, each filledwith hidden treasures just ready to be discovered. Infront of these shops are tables filled with sellers, andacross the street are covered stalls filled with otherthings, usually not so old and of less interest to me

but stimulating to the eye.

Towards the bottom of the road are the stallsselling cheap clothing and tourist souvenirs, andthen comes the market and ready-food booths fillewith wonderful smells and lovely fresh fruits and

vegetables. I also spend one morning at the KemptoRace Track antiques fair that is held on a Tuesday,

twice a month. This is comprised of one very largeinterior space and an outdoor space, all filled withsellers of wonderful surprises. One always hopes fono rain on these days as the outside has many greatthings to see.

London is a city of many changes (as is every placreally) but the changes here seem to be visible at afaster pace. The faces of the people and theirlanguages have become totally international. Thechoices of food has opened up not only to variety anglobal appeal but to freshness and local availability. trip to the local supermarket can entertain me forhours and for most every commodity there is a widerange of choic, with an emphasis on spices, herbs,greens, cheeses and the tastiest fruits in season. Ialways overspend and overbuy, having very littlecontrol over myself when it comes to food.

I was, however, saddened to see that many of thewonderful television programs no longer exist andmore of the familiar American programs have inchedtheir way into the TV menu than ever before. Ofcourse, British TV is still British TV; it just felt like had gone on a diet and I missed programs that I hadfound tantalizing.

This has been Londons year. The Queens JubileeWimbledon Tennis and the Olympics.

The have been lots of festivities and local streetgatherings where Londoners celebrate with happy

block parties, the streets and houses decorated infestive buntings. I missed a lot of this, having arrived

just a tad late, but could still feel the buzz in the air. did have one of the best fish and chip plates I haveever had, and this brought me back to celebrate the

pleasure of the traditional London that I remember.

If it wasnt for all the practice, exercise and competition, I would love to be in the next Olympics.

Between his work as registered

principal and partner in aninvestment advisory firm and his

role as president of the Claremont Unified

School District Board of Education, youwould think Jeff Stark doesnt have muchtime for reading.

In fact, he is a bit of a bookworm, devouring fareranging from money-savvy publications to historicalnonfiction to the occasional thriller.

The poet, essayist and playwright Ishmael Reed oncewrote, One of the joys of reading is the ability to pluginto the shared wisdom of mankind.

Since receiving an iPad for Fathers Day, Mr. Starkhas been plugging into this intellectual legacy via a new,electronic format. He had been coveting the touch-screen computer because it seemed perfect for his

business. Surprisingly, it has proved perfect for thebusiness of reading.

I can instantaneously go from one book to another,he marveled. Im reading like crazy.

War of the wordsLately, Mr. Stark has been on a military history binge,

reading books like Eric Greitens memoir, The Heartand the Fist: The education of a humanitarian, themaking of a Navy SEAL, and Unbroken: A WorldWar II Story of Survival, Resilience, andRedemptionby Laura Hillenbrand.

Unbroken is the best-selling true story of LouisZamperini, an Olympic runner-turned-bombardier who,after his bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean in 1943,survived a remarkable 47 days on a raft before beingcaptured by the Japanese. After more than 2 years in

brutal prison camps, he returned home a haunted man,attempting to drink away the painful memories.

In 1949, Mr. Zamperini attended a crusade led byevangelist Billy Graham and became a born-againChristian. The epiphany led Mr. Zamperini to becomea motivational speaker and to forgive his captors, evenserving as a torchbearer in the 1998 Nagano Olympics.

Mr. Stark has also used his iPad to pore overBand ofBrothers: E Company 506th Regiment, 101stAirborne from Normandy to Hitlers Eagles Nest,which Steven Spielberg turned into a popular 10-partminiseries. Author Stephen E. Ambrose served as the1999 commencement speaker for Claremont McKennaCollege.

What all these books are about are tremendoussurvival storiesacts of courage that go beyond what

most people can endure, Mr. Stark said. Theressomething unique about their personalities that allowsthem to go through these experiences. Its a tremendousexample of the human spirit.

Suicidal surfers, murderous celebritiesMr. Stark has enjoyed reading about another kind of

couragethe sheer, devil-may-care audacity of theextreme sportsmanin The Wave: In Pursuit of theRogues, Freaks and Giants of the Ocean.

He has an old-fashioned hard copy of the 2010 bookby Susan Casey, which documents the largest and mostdestructive waves in existence and those who aspire toride them. Ms. Casey introduces readers to the unusualtribe thatfollowing in the footsteps of LairdHamilton, the first surfer to board rogue waves of 70and 80 feettravels the globe in search of the perfect100-foot wave.

Its a fascinating study of water, that asks, Why isit an anxiety-provoking thing for some people, and forother people, their whole lives revolve around it? Mr.Stark related.

While he isnt one of these arguably suicidal surfers,Mr. Stark is fond of hanging 10. He noted there was a

board in his car. Whenever possible, he heads for theSan Onofre area to unwind via some surfing.

When channel surfing, Mr. Stark may switch to a newprogram when he comes across conservative Fox News

commentator Bill OReilly, because he finds many poinof philosophical disagreement. Giving credit where it due, though, he says he has enjoyed Mr. OReillyKilling Lincoln: The Shocking Assassination thChanged America Forever.

Mr. Booth, described in the book promo as charismatic ladies man and impenitent racist, wasfamous stage actor as well as a Confederasympathizer when he took aim at the 16th president the United States.

Its almost like Tom Cruise murdering the presidentmarveled Mr. Stark. He had that type of fame.

Not everything he reads is a lesson in history or earscience. Mr. Stark whiles away his day dealing wifinances and spends a considerable amount of timclicking through items on Yahoo Finance or thumbinthrough publications likeInvestors Business Dailythe Wall Street Journal.

When I get home, I dont want to read about theconomy or companiesI want to get away from thathe said. Reading is an escape.

When Mr. Stark wants to get away from it all, h

gravitates to adventuresome stories like Dan Brownnovels (The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons) anRobert Ludlums series following secret agent JasoBourne.

He does such a good job of pulling all these pieceof history into his books, Mr. Stark said of Mr. BrowIve been to these places and seen these markers, sits interesting.

While he enjoys a good yarn, Mr. Stark really admirstrong writing. He finds himself reading ErneHemingways works like The Old Man and the Seagain and again. They are always a source of wonde

I find his style really interesting. He says so mucwith few words. How do you do that? Mr. Stark sai

before venturing his own answer: Rewriting anrewriting.

Its notable that the president of the CUSD boa

wasnt much of a reader as a kid. He was more intsports. The passion for the written word would comlater.

With new innovations, the lure of books is onbecoming stronger. Mr. Stark loves the fact that hdoesnt need a nightlight on read on his iPad. His wifwho used to beg him to end his marathon readinsessions, is likely pretty pleased too.

I was sneaking around, he said. Now I can realate into the night.

Longtime Claremont resident MarvinAlan Crayton, Sr. died at his Montclairhome on April 10, 2012 following sev-eral years of declining health. He was 87.

Born January 5, 1925 in Atlanta,Georgia, Mr. Crayton was the second

son of Emmett and Bertha Crayton. Inaddition to his older brother Vernon, hehad 2 younger siblings, twins Jeromeand Jacqueline. Mr. Craytons father wasfrom Sparta, Georgia and his mother,was a direct descendent of the ReverendRichard Allen, a founder of the AfricanMethodist Episcopal (AME) Church.The Craytons raised their children in theAME Church in Atlanta.

Growing up in the segregated South,Mr. Crayton experienced his share ofracial intolerance. His father was ashort-order cook and the partial ownerof a caf that was located across fromthe capitol building and frequented by

politicians like Eugene Talmadge, a

Georgia governor and later a US sena-tor known for his segregationist views.As a boy, Mr. Crayton helped out at therestaurant after school and during thesummer, but his family was not allowedto sit down and eat at the restaurant be-cause of their skin color.

Mr. Crayton graduated from BookerT. Washington High School at the age of16 in 1941, followed by a year at Mor-ris Brown College. In the wake of the

bombing of Pearl Harbor, his brotherVernon joined the United States Navyand in 1943, Mr. Crayton followed suit,

achieving the rank of Pharmacists Mate2nd Class. He was among the firstAfrican Americans to complete trainingto serve as a medic in the Navy, and hegraduated with distinctionin the top10 percent of his class. After service in

the Pacific Theater during WWII, hewas honorably discharged in 1946.

Following a Navy mentor who inpeacetime taught medicine at CreightonUniversity in Omaha, Nebraska, Mr.Crayton resumed his studies at the JesuitUniversity. He converted to RomanCatholicism before matriculating toOmaha University (later the Universityof Nebraska at Omaha), and maintaineda deep spirituality for the rest of his life.

While working full-time and still astudent, Mr. Crayton fell in love withKathleen Willis, also a student inOmaha. Ms. Willis was white and, at thetime, the state of Nebraska did not rec-ognize interracial marriage, so the cou-

ple traveled to Minnesota to get married.Their first child, Jacqueline, was born in1952, followed a year and a half later bytheir second daughter, Cathleen.

Mr. Crayton graduated from UNO in1955 with a dual bachelors and mastersdegree in the social sciences. Crayton, ashis friends and colleagues called him,also joined the Omega Psi Phi fraternity.Mr. Crayton had a knack for staying intouch and, throughout his life, kept upfriendships formed at UNO and duringhis high school days in Atlanta.

After the dissolution of his marriage,

Mr. Crayton relocated to Los Angeleswith his daughters and became a coun-selor at the Los Angeles County Juve-nile Hall Eastlake facility. Thus begannearly 30 years with the County of LosAngeles Probation Department in vari-

ous ascending capacities. He earned therespect of colleagues for his work withthe minor probationers entrusted to hisguidance.

Also, upon his arrival in Los Angeles,another opportunity surfaced: he met thelove of his life, Barbara Jean Yancey.The couple, who would have celebratedtheir 54th wedding anniversary this pastJuly, enjoyed a marriage marked by loveand commitment. Mr. Crayton and hisfamily moved to Pomona in 1960 and,within a couple of years, welcomed athird child, Marvin, Jr. Mr. Crayton,who awoke his children by enjoiningthem, military-style, to rise and shine,could be stern at times, according to his

daughter Cathleen.One of his sayings that he used to tell

usand Im sure this was his philoso-phy as a probation officer when he dealtwith kids who had gone astraywasIts hard but its fair, she recalled.

Mr. Crayton had a playful side, how-ever. He loved to take his children onoutings to the movies or the planetar-ium, and strived to impress on them theimportance of not taking themselves tooseriously. He had silly nicknames for hiskids, including Nutface for the girls,and sometimes softened his advice bydelivering it in the form of funny,rhyming ditties.

In 1971, the family moved to Clare-

mont. An avid swimmer, Mr. Craytonsfirst move in his new town was to builda swimming pool. When not splashing

around, he enjoyed watching sports oTV, especially football, and cultivatinflowers like roses and tulips in his wekept garden. He made time for regulget-togethers with friends, includinhosting summer barbecues and annu

Christmas parties, and was active in thcommunity, coaching football and sering on various boards and councils.

Mr. Crayton retired from the Probtion Department in 1986. He enjoyed hfree time, taking weekend trips to LVegas with his wife and golfing with hson, while remaining engaged locally the Pomona Valley.

As the years passed and disease tooits toll, Mr. Crayton did not always reognize those closest to him, but his family shared that his zest for life still oftcame through.

We all recognized his sense of joy life and his gratitude during those yeaof suffering, his daughter Cathleen sai

His physical presence will be missegreatly, but he will never be far frothose who knew him and love him.

Mr. Crayton is survived by his wifBarbara; by his daughters, Jacqueliand Cathleen; by his son, Marvin, Jr.; bhis grandchildren, Flynn, Bryan, Hillaand Camille; by his great grandchildreXavier and Nevaeh; by his sister-in-lawCorine; by his nieces, Brenda, GloriMia and Gabrielle; by his nephewCraig and Vernon Jr., and by numerocolleagues and friends.

Marvin Crayton is interred at tRiverside National Cemetery. A Maof Remembrance will be held at OLady of the Assumption Church on Sa

Claremont COURIER/Saturday, August 11, 2012 1

To Roslyn Farkas, a res-ident of ClaremontManor, happiness is

about learning to become im-mersed in the little surpriseslife hands to you: a painting in

a museum, a blooming flower,construction along a roadway.Ms. Farkas rang in her 90th birthday

with friends and family Tuesday amidthe product of this mantraa gallery ofMs. Farkas professional photos and po-etry over the last 41 years on exhibit atthe Manor.

Her approach may seem simplistic, aseries of shots of her kitchen table overthe years or the progression of a houserestoration in the 1980s, but its the bigger

picture that makes these images speak;its the story of a Claremont woman andher little joys immortalized in print.

It helps provide me with a sense of be-longing, like I am a part of the physical

world, Ms. Farkas reflected. I give my-self a sense of being a part of nature bycapturing its beauty.

Her philosophy has been one of inspi-ration for her children, who foster fondmemories of their mother and her larger-than-life spirit of creativity.

She finds beauty in everything, saiddaughter Lynn Dasteel-Klarman, refer-encing a series of photos on display of

pipes along Foothill Boulevard.

And some of Ms. Farkas favoritepieces are as simple as just thata piperunning along a well-traveled highway ora worn-down home going through the

process of restoration: It makes me feela part of the process, she said, reflectingon her series titled Restoration of aPomona home in various stages of repair.

Her ability to find the artistic in every-day objects and activities is what her chil-dren have come to know and love abouttheir mother and late father.

She and my dad would try anythingand everything in the arts, and she is avoracious reader, reflected daughterBarbara Carlson, a teacher at OakmontElementary.

Ms. Carlson continues to cherish manyfond childhood memories of delving intoher own creative pursuits, supported byher parents, and holds their many trips tothe Huntington Library near and dear toher heart.

Though always having a mind inclinedtoward artistic pursuits, Ms. Farkas,

working since age 14, says she was notable to fully embrace her calling untilmuch later on in life.

I always enjoyed art, but never par-ticipated in it, she said. Photographywas my first chance to become immersedin this new world.

Her multitude of photos might suggestotherwise, but Ms. Farkas didnt pick upa camera until later on in life. Her hus-

band presented her with a 35-millimeter

point-and-shoot in the summer of 1971,as a gift before she left home to study lan-guage in Cuernavaca, Mexico

I was so excited, she said, recallingsnapping away at anything she could findto take a picture of. The fervor continuedwhen she returned home to Claremont,and hasnt stopped since. Though she ex-

perimented with different types of cam-eras in the years following, she mainlystuck to her beloved point-and-shoot

It was easy to use: simple, no filter, nonothin, she explained.

Her attempts to try another style ofphotography with a Chinon camera cameto a halt when it was stolen out of herVolkswagen van in Santa Monica. Afterthat I went right back to my point-and-shoot, she laughed.

A resident of Claremont for more than50 years, her city has provided a wealthof opportunities for the eager photogra-

pher. A former Claremont Colleges em-ployee, one of her proud moments wassnapping shots of Pitzer Colleges Elder-

hostel festivities, printed in an April 1980edition of the COURIER.

I loved living in a college town andthoroughly enjoyed the excitement oflearning and the accessibility it provides,she said.

When she was not at the colleges, sheloved capturing her favorite moments inthe comforts of her San Jose home. Onesuch image, titled The Red Flowers,captures a single red blossom illuminated

from the sunshine peering through a cutained dining room window.

It brings me back, said friend of mothan 40 years Phoebie DeVille, lookinat another photo of Ms. Farkas dininroom table, where she recalls manymorning get-together over coffee. Hand her husband would tell the funnie

stories.Seeing her friends artwork on displa

and the many memories associated felike a fitting tribute to Ms. Farkas 9years of life, shared Ms. DeVille.

Its very unifying, she said. It makall the years hang together nicely.

Though now living at the Manor, MFarkas continues to pursue her creati

passions and share them with othewhether through her photography or leaing the Manors poetry group. Her oureach was palpable, as family and friencrowded into the multi-purpose roofrom all chapters of Ms. Farkas life.

She is just so loved, Ms. Carlsosaid.

For Ms. Farkas, the birthday exhibitiobrought with it a renewed sense of pupose and accomplishment, surrounded bthe people she adores and some of thmore cherished memories of her life. Shexpects many more memories to come

It helps me feel excited to keegoing, she smiled.
