The LHHIA Photo Contest deadline is April 30, 2016 and it’s never too early to start taking photos of life in La Habra Heights. View contest details at LHHIA.com. Several photos from the contest were used on the covers of Heights Life in 2015. We hope you will participate this year. I have come to the end of my term as your Mayor, and I just wanted to say it has been an honor and a privilege to serve you, and to represent our city. If you attended some of the monthly “Coffee with the Mayor” get-togethers, I hope you enjoyed the opportunity to discuss issues of concern to you. I will continue to serve as your City Councilman and always be available to hear your concerns. We have seven more Veterans honored in this issue on pages 10 to 12. I want to thank everyone who submitted pictures and stories to make the Veteran tribute possible. Roads Workshop/Committee: On January 9 a special City Council meeting was held and focused mainly on roads. Representatives from the Bucknam Group and NBS gave presentations on how the Pavement Management Plan (PMP) was prepared and what would be required to bring our roads back to a recommended maintenance level. Although the report was still in draft form, it gave us an idea of what the costs would be over a 5-year period. We also heard about how assessment amounts would be determined if we decide on a new assessment district. Residents were able to ask questions and make comments - this information will be vital to the Council as we consider how to move forward. The meeting can be viewed on the City website and on Channel 3. At the Council Meeting on January 14, the Council decided to form a Roads Committee. This committee will be made up of 10 residents and all meetings will be open to the public. If you are interested in being on the committee, call City Hall at (562) 694-6302 ASAP and get information on how to apply. I hope 2016 started off well for you and that it will be a truly great year. Thank You, Vicki Cooke, Heights Life Editor President’s Pen We hope you enjoyed your holiday season – at least as much as those who attended LHHIA’s Community Christmas Gathering at the Park. We had a wonderful group of children and adults who were able to take some fun photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus, do some sing-a-longs with Ernie Hernandez, make holiday crafts, enjoy a continental breakfast and simply enjoy an opportunity to celebrate Christmas in the Heights with other residents. Please see page 9 for pictures. Rain Barrels: On January 9, residents that signed up for the subsidized rain barrels picked up 167 barrels at The Park. If you are interested in ordering barrels, please call City Hall and let them know. Mark your calendar for the annual Easter Egg Hunt at The Park on Saturday, March 19, 2016 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Face painting, petting zoo, pony rides, an Easter egg hunt and an opportunity to take a picture with the Easter Bunny. Bring your children, grandchildren, friends and a camera. The event is free but we ask that you bring one bag of individually wrapped candy per child. Storm Drains: If you see a city storm drain blocked with debris or otherwise not functioning, please report the location to Lori Askew, our new Public Works Director, at 562-694-6302 or email PublicWorks@lhhcity.org. We are excited about the calendar of events planned for 2016 and hope this is the year you will get involved in LHHIA. Please contact me at Preslhhia@gmail.com if you are interested.

Jane Noltensmeier CalBRE # 01440983 Buying a home not only impacts the homeowner’s financial situation, it also impacts the local and national economies. Since 2016 is an election year there’s no doubt the economy, and housing’s role within it, will be a hot topic in the news. 2014 The 24% year over year increase in the number of homes sold in La Habra Heights generated an increase of over $14 million spent on homes in our city during 2015. New neighbors equals a stronger local economy. 2015 Data from CRMLS The BIGGEST Name in Real Estate 714.932.2403 • soldbyjane.realtor 8 There was a great turnout of Heights residents at the Community Christmas Gathering. Children and adults alike were excited to see Santa and Mrs. Claus arrive on the fire truck, make crafts, sing Christmas Carols with guitarist Ernie Hernandez, take pictures and dance with Santa and Mrs. Claus. Many thanks to Co-Chairs Carmen Miller and Romalyn Litchfield and the many volunteers who made this event possible. Boxes of new toys were collected and given to Sonora High School for their Annual Spotlight on Heights Veterans Kathi Cotariu Taverney Kathi Cotariu Taverney grew up in a military family. Her dad was a “China Marine” in the ‘30s and eventually became a Navy pilot. Her mother ran off and joined the Navy at the age of 19, towards the end of WWII. Kathi thought the Navy would be her choice but was swayed by the Marine recruiters who showed up at Santa Clara University. She was sworn in to the Reserves and went to Woman Officer Candidate School. When she graduated from Santa Clara, she was commissioned and sworn in by her father. Before reporting for active duty, Kathi met (and later married) Capt. Tom “Tav” Taverney at the Officer’s Club at the Naval Air Station at Moffett Field. Kathi started her Marine career as the Assistant Post Exchange Officer at the Marine Corps Development and Education Command, Quantico, VA. The couple requested to be stationed together but were unsuccessful. At the time, military women were not permitted to remain on active duty when they became mothers so before the birth of their first son, Kathi resigned her commission and moved back to California. Kathy became a high school teacher in the Norwalk-La Mirada Unified School District where she taught Spanish at Norwalk High for nearly 20 years. She and her students sent several hundred Care Packages to deployed military personnel. Currently, Kathi volunteers at the USO at Ontario Airport, manning a hospitality lounge for traveling service members. She quilts and is currently working on her Doctoral Dissertation. The Taverneys moved to the Heights in 2002. Thomas D. “Tav” Taverney Tom “Tav” Taverney with his grandson, Jarred, at his retirement party Thomas D. “Tav” Taverney was born in New York to an immigrant family. Sadly, his father died when Tav was 9 years old. His mother had to work several jobs to keep the family together, and he and his brother delivered newspapers to help out. They realized early that the only way out of poverty was to get a good education. Tav attended Newark College of Engineering for a year before accepting an appointment to the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. He graduated from the Academy in 1968 with a degree in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering. During Tav’s Air Force career, he worked in the field of rocket and satellite design, control and communication. He left active duty after 10 years and continued in the defense aerospace industry concurrently with his Air Force Reserve commitments. In 2002, he was called back to active duty in the Air Force. He served several tours of duty in support of the War on Terror, and also served in Qatar, Bahrain, and Iraq. His final assignment was that of Vice Commander of Air Force Space Command in Colorado Springs. Tav retired from the Air Force in 2006 with the rank of Major General. He continues to work as Senior Vice President of Leidos, and is responsible for building intelligence, reconnaissance, and surveillance satellites. He has several “pieces of hardware” in orbit right now. In his spare time, he plays golf at Los Coyotes Country Club and spends quality time with his grandsons. 10 Thank You for Your Service! Dr. Robert C. Sharp Dr. Robert C. Sharp graduated from Temple University Medical School in Philadelphia in 1962. He attended Boot Camp at Camp Pendleton in 1963 and was commissioned as a Navy Officer attached to the Marines. He served as a doctor for eight years from 1962-1970. He was stationed in Okinawa before being sent to Vietnam where he spent one tour in 1965 as a Field Medical Surgeon. He had earned the rank of Lieutenant Commander when he resigned his commission in 1970. He completed his residency in the Navy and went on to become the Head of Pediatrics at Long Beach Naval Hospital. He established a pediatric practice in La Habra and Brea where he has practiced for 45 years. Dr. Sharp moved to the Heights in 1970 and raised five beautiful daughters here. Michael L. Higgins Michael L. Higgins served in the U.S. Navy from 1968 to 1972 during the Vietnam War. He completed Boot Camp in San Diego, California and was stationed in Pensacola Naval Air Station in Florida and at the Combat Camera Group at Coronado Naval Base. He served as a Combat Cameraman. Michael had earned the rank of Petty Officer 2nd Class at the time of his honorable discharge. Mr. Higgins was the editor of Heights Life from 2009 to 2013 and is the current Mayor on the City Council. Michael and Pam moved to the Heights in 1989 and raised their two daughters here. Michael Higgins (right) at his graduation from Boot Camp John A. Smith John A. Smith joined the U.S. Army at age 17 straight out of high school. He served from 1964 to 1967 and was stationed in Germany (3rd Armored Division) and then in Di An, Vietnam (1st Engineer Battalion of the 1st Infantry Division – the Big Red One) where he was assigned to constructing airstrips. John was a recipient of the Purple Heart when wounded in action during enemy fire in a battle near Tay Ninh City in War Zone C and received the Vietnam Campaign medal when he was honorably discharged with the rank of E-5. John is a highway road building contractor and has also built 11 homes in La Habra Heights. He served for 16 years on our Roads Committee from 1985 to 2001. He and his son own an asphalt plant in Downey and John plays tournament poker for fun. Marguerite and John Smith have lived in La Habra Heights since 1980. 11 Glenn J. Sheppard Glenn Sheppard was inducted into the U.S. Army in Los Angeles and served from 1969 to 1971. He completed basic and advanced training at Ft. Ord, CA (now CSU Monterey). He was assigned to the Americal Division’s 198th Brigade, 5th Battalion/46th Infantry Regiment. He patrolled the mountains and jungle west of Chu Lai, South Vietnam (aka I Corps). He was awarded a CIB and Bronze Star. When honorably discharged at Ft. Lewis, WA, he had earned the rank of Sergeant. Glenn and Floretta Sheppard have lived in the Heights for 24 years. Robert T. Lee Robert Lee graduated from California State University, Long Beach with a degree in Mechanical Engineering before enlisting in the U.S. Army in 1971. After completing Basic Training at Ford Ord in Monterey Bay, the Army put to use his engineering background at the Yuma Proving Ground where he used NDT (non-destructive testing) on different types of artillery and ammunition. When honorably discharged in 1973, he had earned the rank of Specialist 4. Bob works at Schaffer Grinding in Montebello, a family-owned business specializing in surface, rotary and belt grinding of all types of metals for all types of industries.

Protect tender plants and bring in the pets. We had some rain last month, and hopefully this El Niño won’t cause too much damage, but be ready: clear your rain gutters and drainage areas. • • While you’re outside, why not plant some red, pink, and white flowers for your sweetheart for a lasting St. Valentine’s Day bouquet! Carnations, cineraria, cyclamen, gaillardia, Iceland poppies, pansies, primrose and viola will add a touch of spring and provide a nibble for beneficial insects and humming birds. And check out our new “Monarch Park” butterfly garden at City Hall! Plant one inch or more above the soil line because the plant/tree will settle. Use the recommended amendment and a slow-release fertilizer. Larger trees will need to be staked. Use two stakes, with the trunk in the center, and use the ties around the stakes and not on the trunk. (NOTE: Using ties on the tree trunk could cause “girdling” and choke off water and nutrient flow) Camellias Camellias bloom this month! If you want to plant camellias, visit the garden center while they are blooming so you can choose the plants that appeal to you. Plan a field trip: delight in the camellia displays at Descanso Garden in La Cañada, Huntington Library in San Marino, and Nuccio’s Nursery in Altadena (bring your check book for Nuccio’s). Spring Vegetables Good fortune: we can grow vegetables all year ‘round. Easy-growing, cool season vegetables to plant are: broccoli, Brussel sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage, carrots, endive, leeks, and lettuce (try a few varieties). Lima beans, mustard greens, peas, potatoes, early tomatoes and Swiss chard. Sow seeds indoors for: beets, celery, green onions, shallots, spinach and radish. Evergreen herbs can be planted any time of the year (lavender, rosemary, sage and thyme). Keep camellias flowering with a light application of camellia/azalea fertilizer. Clean up any leaf litter and old blooms. Camellias will survive better with NO mulch. They are susceptible to root rot and bacteria, which can infect the blooms. Keeping the soil clear will help reduce problems. You can get a jump-start for spring herbs by sowing seed indoors: caraway, chervil, chives, cilantro, dill, fennel and parsley. Camellia flowers come in shades of pink, red, white and cream and some are variegated or striped. There are some that even have a scent! Check out Camellia sasanqua, Camellia oleifera and Camellia hiemalis hybrids for scented flowers. Bare Root Planting Rain Showers! Put in bare root plants early this month to help them grow a good root system: artichoke, asparagus, berry brambles, rhubarb and strawberries. Remember: dormant fruit trees, ornamental trees, and roses need to be planted in early February. Muddy boots and raincoats may be this month’s garden attire. A boot scraper and a good doormat will help in reducing those little (or big) muddy footprints from appearing in the house. Apply mulch wherever you can, including a deep layer over those pesky mud holes. Mulching will cut down on the weeds that will soon be popping up everywhere. Bare Root Planting Tips: • Soak the roots in water over night before planting and remove leaves and cross branches. HAPPY ST. VALENTINE’S DAY! Beverley can help with your questions: beverleylepak@yahoo.com 13 Twin Girls Born to Heights Residents On November 25, 2015, proud parents Primo and Melba Castro welcomed Julia Kennedy Castro, 6.4 lbs. and 20 inches long, and Lourdes Carter Castro, 5 lbs. and 17 inches long. The twins join their sisters, 6-year-old Madison Eva and 3-yearold Sofia Taylor. (All have a U.S. president in their name!) So far, the twins have exhibited differing personality traits. Julia is the more active and hungrier of the two. Lourdes is calm and inquisitive and loves special attention. The parents have been sleep deprived, but contend that sleep is overrated. The Castros moved to the Heights six years ago and look forward to introducing the twins to our rural lifestyle in the coming years. Crystal Myers & C.K.
