Did You Know?
At one time, Coraopolis had four bowling allies, three movie theatres, and a
roller skating rink called Druga’s. The Nissan car dealership sits on the spot
where Druga’s once was located.

WMC, AHN FORM ALLIANCE
TO ADVANCE LOCAL HEART CARE
Weirton Medical Center (WMC) and the Pittsburgh-based Allegheny
Health Network have announced a strategic alliance that will significantly
improve the delivery of high quality, comprehensive heart care services to
residents of Weirton and its neighboring communities through greater
collaboration between cardiologists and cardiac surgeons at each system.
WMC has also entered an exclusive agreement with Vardhan Reddy, MD,
FRCS, FACC, one of the region’s preeminent cardiac surgeons, for the
coordination of cardiovascular disease care at the hospital. Under his
direction at WMC, patients from the Weirton area who require heart
surgery and other advanced cardiovascular care will now have seamless
access to those services at Allegheny Health Network’s Cardiovascular
Institute.
“This alliance will guarantee an unmatched continuum of high quality care
for local heart patients. Together with our team of outstanding WMC
cardiologists, including Dr. Stanley Mannino and Dr. Cherian John, we will
determine the best course of treatment for each patient, taking advantage of
WMC’s terrific interventional cardiology services and giving patients who
require more invasive surgical and advanced cardiovascular care the
opportunity to transition to Allegheny Health Network in Pittsburgh,” said
Dr. Reddy.
The healthcare providers of Allegheny Health Network have a long and
distinguished history of providing state-of-the-art cardiovascular disease
care. At West Penn Hospital, that includes comprehensive cardiac surgery
capabilities such as heart bypass and valve replacement, pacemaker and
defibrillator implantation, and complex peripheral vascular procedures.
The hospital recently invested $10 million in facility improvements and
technological upgrades to its Cardiovascular Institute.
WMC Director of Communications Kelli McCoy said the hospital will
also provide important support services to make the surgical experience in
Pittsburgh as convenient as possible, including luxury transportation to and
from the city.
McCoy said WMC is planning to further expand the reach of its services
with the opening of new offices in both Imperial and Robinson Township
in the near future. The goal is to provide more healthcare options to those
currently under-served along the Route 22/30 Corridor between Weirton
and Pittsburgh.
"We are very excited about what the future holds for WMC and the
patients we care for,” she said.

Hair Salon to Sponsor Wigs for Kids Donation Day
Michael's Hairloft Spa and Tanning in Moon Township will
host Wigs for Kids Donation Day on Sunday, February 23
from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The salon is located at 5990 University
Boulevard, Moon Township.
Sue Brandt, a Crescent Township resident who works at
Michael’s Hairloft as a hair designer, decided to coordinate the
event.
She said, “I have a place in my heart for the children in this
world that need to feel like themselves in a time of illness. I
have been a hair designer for over 20 years, and have been
touched by some of my friends and neighbors’ children that
have fought their battles in the past years. They learn to be
strong at a young age.”
Sue said that over the years she has sent many hair and
monetary donations to Wigs for Kids and other donation
centers.
Wigs for Kids (www.wigsforkids.org) was started years ago
by hairdresser Jeffery Paul and his niece, who asked him for
help when she found out she had her battle to fight. He
started the center because of her and his love for his niece
and other children going through the same thing.
On February 23, the hair designers and staff are volunteering
their time to measure and cut the donated hair, and shape it
into a bob for free. They will gather all the hair and mail it to the
proper donation companies.
Sue stressed, “We will not turn down anyone that will donate
their hair for the cause. The hair must be clean and knot free
when they arrive, and we will take hair as short as nine inches
and with color (Wigs for Kids requires 12-inch donations) for
other companies.”
During the event, there will be basket drawings and refreshments.
Additionally, there is a coin donation box at the reception area
everyday for those that can not donate any hair and would love
to help Wigs for Kids. The coin box will offset the process of
making the wigs.
Michael Coyne, owner of Michael’s Hairloft, is a Burgettstown
resident and has owned and operated his salon for the past 20
years.
Sue said she is indebted to Michael for his guidance and
support while she coordinates this event. She said he is also
helping with the refreshments and basket giveaways.
For more information, contact Sue at Michael’s Hairloft,
(412) 262-3331.

STORY AND PHOTO
BY PAT JENNETTE
6WLOO0HHWLQJ$IWHU
<HDUV
Sixteen members of the original class of 1942 from Coraopolis
High School still meet every other month for lunch. They laugh,
tell stories, reminisce, share each other’s lives, and realize how
fortunate they are to still be together after all these years.
They went off to the war, leaving some on the battlefield. They
were in all branches of the military. The girls back home worked in
plants supplying the war effort. One even welded an LST landing
craft that arrived in Normandy. Another was an Army nurse.
Every one of the men who still meet with the group served in
World War II.
They are a patriotic group, having experienced all that World
War II brought to both their homeland and abroad.
With that, Margie Garland, 90, calls her class part of the
“greatest generation.”
With the war over, this class moved on to the next stage of their
lives. One, Ollie LePore, brought home his “war bride.” All who
married never divorced. Some are still married, 66 years later.
$OOHJKHQ\:HVW0DJD]LQH-DQXDU\)HEUXDU\
Most of them continue to live out their lives in the Moon or
Coraopolis communities.
Over time, the old Coraopolis High School was converted into
apartments for seniors. Three of their classmates made their old
alma mater their home, where they still reside.
The class met formally on a regular basis until their 65th reunion.
John Hankowsky was instrumental in keeping the group together
for as long as they did, explained Margie.
Dorothy Walzak said, “We started our own reunion group after
the class decided not to do it anymore because it was getting
more difficult.”
Every other month since then, they have met for lunch or dinner.
Half of their class of 136 students has passed on. Of the remaining
members, 18 still meet.
And the stories they have to tell are as remarkable as the fact
that this class still meets.
World War II is underway
Gas Rationing of 3 gallons per week
Minimum draft age lowered from 21 to 18
26 countries agree to create the United Nations
Car makers switch from making cars to making war materials
“White Christmas” with Bing Crosby debuts
Average annual wages were $1,880
Average cost of a new house was $3,770
Average price for a new car was $960
War Bonds were introduced, raising $13 billion
“How Green Was My Valley” is the Academy Award’s Best Picture
Daylight Savings Time goes into effect
Bob Pfaub and Jack Blackhurst were born on the exact same
day, April 11, 1924. They married sisters Jackie and Phyllis
respectively, on the exact same day in a joint marriage ceremony
on April 13, 1947. The two couples have been married for 66
years.
Ollie LePore enlisted in the Air Force, and served three years in
England. While there, he met Jean, a vocalist in a dance band. He
brought his English war bride back to the states, and they have
been happily married, also for 66 years.
Mike Garofalo was drafted in 1943, and worked in the Army
Medical Division. A lifelong Moon resident, he married, and
raised four children, who have given him seven grandchildren.
Marion Bradford made bandages and hospital favors as part of
the Coraopolis Cot Club during the war, while Marie Goss and
Margie Garland worked for Dravo. Marie, who also served for a
period of time as the secretary for Coraopolis Borough, was an air
raid warden.
She explained, “I had an arm band and a helmet to wear that
identified me as a warden, in case we had to seek shelter.”
The members recall many happy times during what was
considered a subdued era in American history.
Margie recalls how they got to watch the LSTs launch. She said
emphatically, “We’ll never forget the war and we survived the
flood.”
Despite their world being turned upside down when the war
started, said Marion, “We attended USO dances with the sailors
on Neville Island, and enjoyed times at the service clubs.”
They recall that there were four bowling alleys in Coraopolis,
three movie theatres, and Druga’s Roller Rink.
The YMCA would hold Tri Hi Y dances on Friday nights.
It was safe to walk the streets, and walk to and from school.
They didn’t have school buses.
Kids found work at the movie theatres, while the larger
employers, including Standard Steel, Consolidated Glass, and
J&L Steel, employed many of their parents.
Coraopolis was vibrant back then, some of the members
recalled, with a population of about 18,000. Today, the borough
has about 4,800 residents.
After the war, Bob explained that the economy boomed again.
Cars and televisions were produced en masse. Ollie remembers
he bought a four-door Plymouth for $1,900.
Technology wasn’t yet on the horizon for this class of 1942.
The closest they came to experiencing technology was when
they listened to Perry Como sing on the radio at 7 p.m. in the
evening.
Today, Bob uses a computer for word processing and e-mail.
Marie has one, too, which she uses primarily for research.
Technology has allowed them to reminisce about the past by
enjoying old movies on the Turner Classic cable station.
Margie said, “We still stay active with the food pantry, clubs,
meals on wheels, and church activities. We visit our neighbors
and keep an eye on them.”
Ollie goes to Cornell High School, where he is learning more
about woodworking in their woodshop.
Bob and his wife, Jackie, still serve as Sunday school teachers
at Union Presbyterian Church in Robinson.
“Half of us are still here, and for that, we are grateful. We don’t
complain. We have all suffered personal loss of some sort, and
we are devoted to each other and care for each other,” she
explained.
“We will continue to meet until the last person stands,”
Margie said.

More Ways to
Conserve Water at Home
Shorten your shower by a
minute or two, and you'll save up
to 150 gallons of water a month.
Upgrade your older toilets with
newer water-efficient models.
Adjust your lawn mower to a
higher setting. A taller lawn
shades the roots and holds soil
moisture better.
When cleaning out fish tanks,
give the nutrient-rich water to your
plants.
When running a bath, plug the
tub before turning the water on,
then adjust the temperature as the
tub fills.
Designate one glass for your
drinking water each day, or refill a
water bottle. This will cut down on
the number of glasses to wash.
Make sure there are watersaving aerators on all of your
faucets.
At home, or when staying in a
hotel, re-use your towels.
Don't use your toilet as an
ashtray or wastebasket. Every time
you flush a cigarette butt, facial
tissue, or other small bit of trash,
five to seven gallons of water are
wasted.
Insulate your water pipes with
pre-slit foam pipe insulation.
You'll get hot water faster, and thus
avoid wasting water while it heats
up.

WA Workcamp Applications Coming In;
Countdown to Community Event Begins
Applications from residents in
need of home repairs are coming
in with more frequency;
donations are starting to flow in
to help pay for the paint and
wood and nails and supplies
needed to make the repairs a
reality. More than 400 young
people and their adult leaders have paid their way and made reservations
to travel from all parts of America to spend a week here in June to
undertake what is shaping up to be the largest home renovation community service project to ever occur in the airport suburbs of Allegheny
County.
Called West Allegheny Workcamp, the project has recently combined
resources with the Heroes Supporting Heroes effort launched by John
Lee, who recently completed his military tour of duty in Afghanistan.
The idea to bring the two efforts together stemmed from the similarity
of both organizations’ efforts.
HSH helps repair homes of military veterans and the elderly throughout
the year; while WAW is a one-week effort to undertake 75-80 local home
repair projects simultaneously.
The West Allegheny Workcamp project was hatched by Jeff Lutz and
Don Steward of Crossroads Church in North Fayette. The project is
being coordinated under the auspices of Group Workcamps, a longtime
mission camp organization that operates similar events across the United
$OOHJKHQ\:HVW0DJD]LQH-DQXDU\)HEUXDU\
States each summer.
To date, 100 applications
have been received from area
residents. These are individuals and families who are
elderly, disabled, or facing
financial, physical, and other
difficulties.
Eligible repair projects may include porch repair and construction, step
repair, interior/exterior painting, weatherization, wheelchair ramp repair
and construction, mobile home skirting, and porch roof repairs.
The youths and their leaders will set up their temporary “home” inside
West Allegheny Middle School, where they will eat and sleep during the
week of June 22-28. Each day, small groups of teens and their leaders will
fan out across the region to undertake home repair projects for area
residents.
The West Allegheny Ministerial Association (WAMA), a nonprofit
501(c)(3) organization, has agreed to serve as the fiscal sponsor, so that
donations to the Workcamp through WAMA are tax-deductible.
A lot of work needs to be done between now and June 2014. Volunteers
are needed to help with serving food each day or running errands.
Donations are needed to purchase the supplies to repair the homes.
Anyone with a desire to work on a team, to help raise funds, or to
coordinate a part of West Allegheny Workcamp, is welcome to contact
Don Steward by e-mail, dlsteward@westaworkcamp.org.
To learn more, visit www.westaworkcamp.org.
Imagine a group of almost 500 teens, with their leaders, arriving in the West Allegheny community all at once, to spend a week of their summer
vacation helping our residents and making their lives better. Imagine the impact such a community-wide project would make on those young
people and the recipients of their good deeds. And all at no cost to any resident! During the week of June 22-28, 2014, the West Allegheny
community will be a sea of young volunteers who will spread out across the neighborhoods to help the elderly, disabled, and those facing
financial, physical, and other difficulties fix or clean up their homes. Many applications (below) are needed, as well as donations. A few hours of
time during that week, and other small tasks anyone can do also are welcomed.

MUSTIO AND SMITH BRING HOME
CRITICAL FUNDING TO JUMP START AREA PROJECTS
Continuing to build on their bipartisan partnership, Rep. Mark
Mustio and Sen. Matt Smith recently announced that they have
successfully secured the funding necessary to move the following
community improvement projects forward.
Findlay Township Water Line Upgrade
The Commonwealth Financing Authority has approved a $1.5 million
grant to go directly toward the construction of the Findlay Township
water line project. This includes the replacement and extension of the
existing eight-inch pipe with a 16-inch water transmission line to serve
recent and future development in the Allegheny County airport
corridor.
“This is a major first step toward bringing necessary infrastructure
upgrades to fruition, which would help create an estimated 10,000 jobs
and $4 billion into the regional economy at the project’s completion,”
Smith said.
As a member of the Allegheny County Airport Authority, Smith
worked with Mustio to build support for the project with key
stakeholders in Harrisburg. The total project is estimated to cost $3.8
million. The Findlay Township Municipal Authority has applied for
federal assistance for the remainder of the funds needed to complete the
project.
“When this water line infrastructure is complete, it will ensure that
those light manufacturing and distribution companies that look to
locate in Findlay Township will have a reliable water supply,” Mustio
said. “This good news will further solidify Findlay Township as a
center for economic development in southwestern Pennsylvania.”
North Fayette Township Community Center
North Fayette Township has received a $164,000 grant from the
Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic
Development’s Greenways, Trails and Recreation Program to begin the
construction of a new community center in Donaldson Park.
“This new community center will be the centerpiece for the existing
baseball, soccer, and football fields, the playground, and the dog park,”
Mustio said. He added, “Donaldson Park also has an amphitheater and
a walking/jogging trail. The addition of a new community center will
ease the burden on various township groups looking for space to hold
educational, business, and fitness-related opportunities for area
residents. “
North Fayette Township has already committed to providing a dollarfor-dollar local match to state investments to begin construction on this
project.
“This facility will help North Fayette address the needs of its growing
number of residents and add to its attractiveness as a community,” Smith
said. “I was impressed with the plan’s focus on the diverse community
needs and the township’s cooperation with the school district.”
Pittsburgh Botanic Garden
Finally, the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden (PBG) has received $214,635 in
funding from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic
Development (DCED) through the Act 13 Marcellus Shale Funds for
Forest Stories Trail. The funds will go directly toward the renovation of
2,500 feet of new trails and also renovate approximately one-half mile of
existing trail. All renovated trails will be brought into compliance with the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Natural play areas have also been planned for and installed along the
trails so that children and their families can more fully enjoy the
experience of being in nature.
“As the first major regional asset to be created in the Pittsburgh region
in more than a decade, the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden will positively
impact economic development, job creation, and marketing opportunities
throughout area,” Mustio said. “This vital, new public attraction will
serve the people of our 10-county region as well as visitors from across
the nation and around the world.”
Located in Collier and North Fayette Townships, just seven miles from
the center of Pittsburgh and a similar distance from the Pittsburgh
International Airport, the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden has been recognized
as a first-day attraction by Visit Pittsburgh.
Operated as a public-private partnership, the garden site is made up of
over 460 acres and is leased from Allegheny County for 99 years at the
cost of $1 per year. All funding is for ready-to-go projects.
“As a member of the Garden’s board, I can attest that the Forest Stories
Trail project will add to the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden’s position as a
regional asset and will offer educational opportunities to students of all
levels,” Smith said. “With funding for this shovel-ready project in place,
we are also primed to see the immediate economic benefits of the
project.”

SMITH HONORED WITH ACHIEVA AWARD
State Senator Matt Smith was
recognized last month for his
legislative and constituent
service efforts supporting
individuals with physical and
intellectual disabilities.
Smith was presented the
“Excellence in Legislation” award
at ACHIEVA’s annual Awards of
Excellence event at the Sheraton
Station Square Hotel in
Pittsburgh. The regional
nonprofit advocates for and
provides services and support to
individuals with disabilities and
their families.
“This award is truly an honor
and a reminder that there is more
work to be done,” Smith said.
Smith was one of 12 award
winners in 11 categories
recognizing extraordinary
contributions of individuals and
organizations.
ABOVE: Sen. Matt Smith, center, with ACHIEVA board chair
It was noted during the
William Lestitian, Esq., CPA, and ACHIEVA president and CEO
Marsha Blanco.
ceremony that Smith’s efforts
spanned his tenure in the Senate
and as a member of the House of Representatives where he advocated for and supported policy and
investment supporting mental health, intellectual disability, and early intervention services.
During his acceptance remarks, Smith cited his recent experience visiting their pallet manufacturing
facility in Bridgeville in May.
“I was able to see firsthand the importance of the facility from an economic standpoint as well as
the impact ACHIEVA has on its employees and the community,” Smith said.
“As a regional leader in providing individuals with disabilities and their families with comprehensive
support throughout their lives, ACHIEVA is also the go-to organization for honest insight and vital
feedback on state policies and programs,” Smith added.
