Deeply rooted - Chautauqua Region Community Foundation
D e e p l y r o o t e d Annual Report 2007 A man does not plant a tree for himself, he plants it for posterity. Alexander Smith any times as we travel in the Chautauqua Region, we fail to see the beauty surrounding us. We take the grandeur of the landscape, Chautauqua Lake, and our distinct seasons for granted. The many and varied trees that dot the landscape are part of the splendor of our environs. These trees perpetually provide value to our neighborhoods, streets, and highways by adding beauty and helping the environment. M 2 Trees are at the “root” of a project underwritten several years ago by the Board of Directors of the Community Foundation. As the City of Jamestown Urban Design Plan process was taking shape, the Foundation looked for a project that could make a long-term difference—a project that would be a part of the skyline of the City. The Foundation decided to plant trees. In partnership with the City of Jamestown, the Foundation investigated the need for more trees—trees in locations that would complement the Urban Design Plan. The North Main Street/Route 60 corridor, which serves as the north side entrance to the City, was identified as an area that would benefit from additional trees. The Foundation also partnered with Love Elementary School to plant trees on streets adjacent to the school. These trees, which will enrich the landscape and help create a lasting image of the City, are representative of what the Community Foundation stands for in the Chautauqua Region. Similar to a tree that started with a seed, sprouted, and became firmly rooted as it grew, the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation and its many charitable funds all started from “seed” money, which sprouted, become deeply rooted, and grew. It will continue to gain strength and offer financial assistance to the Chautauqua Region through a vast number of programs now and in the future. As you read this annual report, consider the value of a tree to the natural beauty and environment of our area. At the same time, think about the value of the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation to the strength, stability and beauty of our community. 2 Chautauqua Region Community Foundation • Enriching the Quality of Life in the Chautauqua Region since 1978 The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn. Ralph Waldo Emerson DEEPLY ROOTED : Webster’s Dictionary defines “deeply” as “extending far downward from the outer surface.” “Rooted” is defined as “an underground part of a plant body that functions as a means of anchorage and support.” When used together, these words describe something that provides support and stability due to its penetration far below the surface. The Chautauqua Region Community Foundation seeks, through its mission and actions, to be an entity that is deeply rooted in the community. In 1978, the founding members established the Community Foundation as an anchor of strength and stability for charitable action in our community. Their work has been nurtured by all who have followed. During the past 29 years, the mission of “enriching the quality of life in the Chautauqua Region,” has resonated with and been supported by thousands of donors. In 2007, 2,270 donors made gifts totaling $2,667,000.00 to a wide variety of charitable purposes. As part of this generosity, 30 new endowment funds were established, taking the total number of funds administered by the Foundation to 479. These funds provide the means to award grants and scholarships and to provide support wherever it is most needed. Our desire to maintain and strengthen our ability to serve as a charitable anchor led to the creation of the Legacy Society at the Foundation. The Legacy Society honors those individuals who have made the decision to provide a planned gift for their favorite charitable purpose at the end of their lives. The Legacy Society recognizes and thanks those donors during their lifetimes. Their dedication to worthwhile causes is an inspiration and encouragement to all. Their philanthropy will enrich the community for generations to come. On behalf of the Board of Directors and staff, we thank each of you for years of generous support. It has allowed us be become the “Deeply Rooted” anchor reaching far below the surface of the Chautauqua Region. Lyman A.

The Lynn Foundation Fund was established in 2006 by the members of the Lynn family. The original contribution to this fund was made possible through the ongoing profitability of the family-owned business, Allied Fire Protection Systems. By the year 2000, Allied had become one of the larger fire protection sprinkler contractors in the state. The Lynn Foundation Fund was established by the current owners who are Charles Lynn, Christopher Lynn, Scott Lynn, and Gary Lynn. This fund was inspired by an incident in 1969. At that time, MRC/TRW, a local bearing manufacturer, provided Gary Lynn with a scholarship, even though he was not a high school star pupil. Due to their investment in him, he has always had the desire to give back to others. Planned Gift Information—www.crcfgift.org • Phone: 716.661.3390 11 D O N O R S Mr. and Mrs. Gary R.

Walrod Veteran’s Van Fund 2 William A. and Ruth B. Walrod Kennedy Library Fund William A. and Ruth B. Walrod This past year marks the passing of two premier Community Foundation and community advocates, William A. and Ruth B. Walrod of Kennedy, New York. Mrs. Walrod graduated from Alfred University with a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Masters of Education degree. She highly valued the importance of acquiring an education and felt the first step to that goal was to support local students in attending Jamestown Community College. The Ruth Benson Walrod Scholarship Fund provides scholarships for Frewsburg Central School graduating seniors entering Jamestown Community College. Mr. Walrod, a graduate of Empire State College, Jamestown Community College and Jamestown Business College was a veteran of World War II. From 1970–1985, he served as the Veteran Service Officer for Chautauqua County in the Jamestown office. Among many community organizations, Mr. Walrod was a member of the American Legion Ira Lou Spring Post 149 and the Veterans of Foreign Wars John W. Tiffany Post 53. In 1991, he established the William A. Walrod Veteran’s Van Fund. This fund provides transportation assistance for needy veterans to Veteran Administration facilities. Together, they founded the William A. and Ruth B. Walrod Kennedy Library Fund. This fund will forever provide yearly income to the Kennedy Library. The legacy of Mr. and Mrs. Walrod is inspirational and reflects those aspects of life which were important to them. 18 Hospice Fund Stanley A. Weeks/Robert H.

Frucella Memorial Scholarship Fund Criteria: To assist graduating high school student(s) from Bethel Baptist, Jamestown, Falconer, Southwestern, Frewsburg, Maple Grove or Panama majoring in education with a 3.0 or better G.P.A. who are hardworking and demonstrate active church involvement. Stephanie A. Frucella was born in Jamestown on October 7, 1979. She was the daughter of Robert J. and Kathleen M. Barry Frucella. Her smile was bright, warm and inviting. It was no wonder that children were attracted to her. Her dedication to children was implicit, as a 4th grade teacher in Maryland and later in Florida. Children were central to who she was. She once told her family that “…there are so many children who have never had anyone in their lives who they can trust; it is so important as a teacher to be that person for them….taking a personal interest in each student is so important…” She did take that interest. She was very committed to her “children.” Her deep faith gave strength to her family, as the tragic details of her death on February 3, 2008, were learned. She was a devout Christian. While living in Jamestown, she was a communicant at St. James Catholic Church, as well as a Eucharistic Minister.

It addresses the root causes of lake problems by partnering with landowners, governments, businesses and organizations to conserve, augment and restore the natural watershed. The Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy’s highest priority initiative is to preserve Chautauqua Lake’s few remaining natural shore land habitat sites. In December of 2007, the Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy established an endowment fund with monies from a generous bequest from Nancy Ericson. The purpose of the Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy Endowment Fund is to ensure financial stability for land conservation and watershed education programs in perpetuity. This fund gives members of the Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy an opportunity to make gifts through their wills, life insurance policies, charitable gift annuities or other donations to support Conservancy programs for decades beyond their lifetime.

Stephen R. Pangborn and William A. Hayes were young men who struggled with a form of cancer known as Rhabdomyosarcoma. This cancer is a highly malignant, fast-growing tumor that is seen primarily in the younger population. After continued treatment, both Stephen and Willie, ultimately, lost their battles. Stephen was 17, and Willie was 18. Michael Taylor, Jamestown resident, City Council member and founder of the fund, also had his own battle with Rhabdomyosarcoma which he was able to overcome. Due to the shared adversity, an unbreakable link was formed between these three individuals. In honor and memory of the inspiration, friendship and legacy left behind by Stephen Pangborn and Willie Hayes, Michael Taylor established “The Stephen Pangborn & Willie Hayes Memorial Cancer Fund.” Stephen Pangborn Willie Hayes Herron Scholarship Fund Betty C.

Meagan Lee Danielson, 26, died on May 10, 2004, in Utah, the result of injuries sustained in an automobile accident. When Meagan was a student at Southwestern High School, one of her passions was participation in the varsity competition cheerleading squad. Her participation with the squad also aided in her development, where she learned the true meaning of dedication, and hard work. Based on this passion, Meagan’s friends and family established the “Meagan Lee Memorial Scholarship Fund” at the Community Foundation. Meagan Lee Danielson This fund will serve to remember Meagan forever, while assisting senior members of Southwestern’s competition cheerleading squad who demonstrate the same positive attitude, leadership, energy, determination, and inspiration that Meagan exuded. Meagan Lee Danielson was loving, kind, and had a way of lighting up a room. This new scholarship will reflect that light on all Southwestern students who benefit in her name, while remembering her for the truly good person she was. 24 Chautauqua Region Community Foundation • Enriching the Quality of Life in the Chautauqua Region since 1978 FUNDS William “Gus” Erickson The John Edward McLaughlin Family C. Jeffrey Bloomquist William “Gus” Erickson Memorial Scholarship Fund John Edward McLaughlin Family Fund C. Jeffrey Bloomquist History Scholarship Fund Criteria: To assist graduating high school senior(s) from Panama Central School who are pursuing majors in business. Criteria: Financial assistance to projects that demonstrate a direct benefit to Randolph, N.Y. and scholarships benefiting Randolph High School graduating seniors. Criteria: To assist a student majoring in History. Priority given to American History. William “Gus” Erickson loved Panama, both the community and the school. He loved teaching, loved his students; and they loved him back. He went the extra mile for his students and taught not only academics but “life.” He felt that getting a good education in whatever field chosen was important. He was a 1943 graduate of Jamestown High School, a 1950 graduate of Grove City College, and earned his Master’s degree from Syracuse University in 1970. Mr. Erickson made learning fun. Throughout the years, students have sought him out for his sage advice. Emily Runge, Peggy Erickson-Lamb and Martha Young, Mr. Erickson’s daughters, established this fund to forever carry on their father’s legacy. John Edward McLaughlin was a life-long resident of Randolph, N.Y. (1913-2001). Along with his wife, he owned and operated the Cain Oil Company in East Randolph for over 20 years. Later, also in Randolph, he was employed as a mechanic for Harold Garris Garage and Randolph Motors. He was a communicant of St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church in Randolph. His son, Patrick Joseph McLaughlin of the Randolph Manor, survived him and died in 2006. The John Edward McLaughlin Family Fund was established at the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation through a bequest from the estate of the McLaughlin family. This fund is designated to provide financial assistance to religious and non-religious charitable activities and scholarships in Randolph, N.Y. C. Jeffrey Bloomquist was born and raised in Jamestown. He graduated from Jamestown High School in 1968 and attended JCC before being drafted in the United States Army. While in the Army, Bloomquist served in Vietnam as a field medic. Abraham Lincoln Impersonator C. Jeffrey Bloomquist has been a friend of the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation for years. Jeff brings a personality that garners smiles, laughs and good conversation. Aside from being a Civil War buff and a Lincoln historian, for the past 25 years he has been working for the American Cancer Society. His reason for his untiring dedication to the Cancer Society is two-fold: (1) He lives to help others. (2) He, himself, is a cancer survivor. However, it is never about him but always others. His legacy, through the C. Jeffrey Bloomquist History Scholarship Fund, will serve to benefit the community.

Robert Bootey III Scholarship Fund David W. Love Memorial Scholarship Fund “…There’s nothing you can know that can’t be known. Nothing you can see that isn’t shown, Nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be. It’s easy. All you need is love, all you need is love, All you need is love, love, love is all you need.” John Lennon & Paul McCartney A life built around law, service, community and family, E. Robert (Bob) Bootey III served each of those commitments faithfully and with unending dedication. Born in 1918, he was the third generation of Bootey lawyers to practice in the Jamestown area. Graduating from Lakewood High School in 1936 and Randolph-Macon College in 1940, he then received his LL.B. and J. D. from Albany Law School. From the earliest days in his education, he was captivated by law and the judicial process. It became a rewarding and productive lifetime career, ending shortly before his death in 2004. E. Robert (Bob) Bootey III Bob Bootey served in various capacities with the Town of Busti and the Village of Lakewood, including sitting on village or town boards, serving as legal counsel and advisor as well as fairly serving and assisting all members of his community. He held the elected office of Busti Town Justice for over 30 years. Additionally, he had served as Village Attorney for the Villages of Celoron and Lakewood. In addition to his love of law, community service and politics, Bob was a consummate sports fan. As long as there was competition, he enjoyed participating in and observing sports activities. Bob Bootey never passed up an opportunity to attend a game in which one of his children or grandchildren were participating. There was always time for his family. His granddaughter, Julie, put it best when it came to his kids, saying, “It seemed like every time I would visit, he was doing something with a contract or legal document. But the second I would walk in, it was all about me.” In life, he was passionate about law. and wanted only to practice law as a profession. That passion, his dedication to community and his great love of family were only surpassed by his integrity. The Bootey family has established the E. Robert Bootey III Scholarship Fund in his memory, so that desiring students may have the opportunity to pursue a law career. It was his hope and his family’s dream that the scholarship recipients will find the same passion, love and integrity both in law and in life. David W. Love, 19, unexpectedly passed away on March 2, 2008. Born with a birth defect, he fought for his life. After two surgeries which permanently corrected his birth defect, he beat the odds. He grew up to be an inquisitive little boy who delighted his family, friends and even strangers with his love of history, music, humor, movies and video games. He was a sensitive individual who developed strong friendships and watched over those who were lucky enough to know him. David’s father recalled “the curly-haired boy with the flawless blue eyes” was always giving of himself in little unspoken ways which endeared him to others. As a transplant donor and through the David W. Love Memorial Scholarship, his giving lives on. With his love of music, he participated in many of the programs Jamestown High School offered. His talent as an actor will live on in the memory of those who saw him perform in the JHS’s musicals from 2000-2004. As a JHS Marching and Concert Band member, as well as a member and an officer of the A’Cappella Choir, he shared the multigenerational language of song and music with others. He loved life; when he wasn’t laughing and listening to music, he was learning. David was a scholar in the truest sense of the word. His conviction to history and politics offered a complementary approach to past and present aspects of human activity, enabling him to set contemporary political problems in their historical perspective. David was a 2006 graduate of Jamestown High School, receiving the DAR History Award and the Ben Spitale Memorial Scholarship. The E. Robert Bootey III Scholarship Fund was established to assist Graduate student(s), with financial need, enrolled in an accredited law school. The David W. Love Memorial Scholarship Fund has been established to provide scholarships for students who are graduating from Jamestown High School who exhibit the greatest passion in the study of history and political science.
