Farewell Long-time resident, Bill McCracken (LaPaloma), passed away in October. An Army Veteran, Bill was very active in the community with Disabled American Veterans, Knights of Columbus and Kiwanis organizations. His wonderful smile will be missed. He is survived by his beautiful wife, Suzie Vong, 5 children, 8 grandchildren, 2 great grandchil-dren, 1 brother and 3 sisters. May our dear neighbor friend rest in His Love and Eternal Peace.


The holiday season will soon be here ~ thefts and burglaries typically increase during this time as we are more hurried, harried and distracted. Although we are living in the lowest crime area of all of Hillsborough County, here are simple tips as a reminder from Community Resource Deputy Jeff Merry and our Committee for safe holiday shopping:

>>> As purse snatchings are most common this time of year, try to go without a purse at all. Keep wallet contents in a zipped or buttoned pocket. If you must carry a purse, use one that can be strapped tightly and worn on the front.

>>> Stay aware while leaving your locked car and returning. Thieves may follow you, looking for an opportunity to strike. If possible, shop with a buddy. If you must shop alone, especially at night, and you feel uneasy about walking to your car, request that a store employee escort you to your vehicle (Beall’s Department Store has been offering this ser-vice for years).

>>> There is a trend now where Amazon trucks are being followed and deliveries are being watched. Beware of “porch pirates”. If you are expecting packages, keep an eye out for your delivery.

So, please follow these safety tips, just be aware of your surroundings.

On behalf of our Community Resource Deputy Jeff Merry and the Community Security Committee Members, have a happy and safe holiday season with family and friends! ~ Russ Safford/Tom Rose
