Did You Know?
Founded in 1902, the history of Ingram borough goes back to 1752, when
the land was part of Chartiers Township. A grand jury granted a petition
to incorporate Ingram as a borough in 1902, and it was named after
Thomas Ingram who owned much of the land.

“The weather outside is frightful....”
Yes, we are seeing the early stages of winter
here in our neighborhood. The cold, the wind, the
snow, and the ice are reminders, for many, of the
hazards and discomfort of this cold weather
season.
While I, for one, enjoy my annual countdown
to spring once the first day of winter is official, I
also know that many others out there appreciate
and relish the opportunity to ski, sled-ride, ice
skate, and make a good old-fashioned snowman.
Whether it’s the cold winter weather or the
hope of an early spring, we need to appreciate what we have. During this
season of gratitude, as the Thanksgiving holiday kicks off this special time
of the year, let’s be sure we help others who do not have it as fortunate.
While our weather outside might be frightful, the devastation in the
Phillippines from the tsunami reminds us, once again, of how fortunate we
are to have what we have. You can help those in the Phillippines, where
the weather is truly frightful, by making a simple $10 or more donation to
the American Red Cross. Simply text the word “redcross” to the number,
90999, and your cell phone carrier will automatically add a $10 donation to
your bill.
Enjoy the holidays!

As this year comes to an end, we here at Allegheny West Magazine would
like to express our appreciation for the continued support and readership
of this publication. We realize we exist because of the relationship we have
with the communities we serve, this allows us to continue bringing you
stories about local people and organizations we find unique and interesting.
In this issue, we tell the story of a local organization, Global Links, in
Greentree, that works with many area hospitals to get perfectly good
medical surplus to those who need it most in countries such as Haiti and
the Dominican Republic. We share more news of your neighbors that
we’ve received during the fall. As in every edition of this magazine, you
will find plenty of good and useful news and
informational items inside.
We look forward to bringing you stories about
people making a difference in your community

NEW SUPPORT GROUP
FORMING FOR AT-HOME MOMS
LIHEAP APPLICATIONS
AVAILABLE FOR HEATING BILLS
The MOMS Club of Pittsburgh West hosted a chapter kickoff event
at the Shawnee Pavilion at Settlers Ridge Cabin Park this fall.
“With so many mothers working outside the home, it can be
extremely hard for stay-at-home mothers to meet each other and
network,” said Brandi Hugar, founder and president of the new local
group. “The MOMS Club allows at-home mothers, including those
who have home-based businesses, or who work part time but are home
with their children during the day, to get together in a supportive
atmosphere.”
What makes the group unique - aside from being the only international nonprofit organization specifically for at-home mothers - is the
wide range of activities allowed under the MOMS Club banner, Hugar
noted.
“For example, we’re going to have monthly member socials and
meetings with interesting speakers and topics for discussions, outings
around town and playdates for mothers and their children, a monthly
moms night out, holiday and seasonal activities and crafts, and service
projects benefiting needy children in the community,” she explained.
Because the MOMS Club is a support group specifically for the
mother-at-home, all meetings are held during the day, and mothers may
bring children to anything the club does.
“We believe that a woman shouldn’t feel isolated just because she
has children,” she continues.
All at-home mothers and children in the Robinson, Moon, and
surrounding airport areas are welcome at MOMS Club activities. For
more information, email momsclubpghwest@gmail.com, or visit
www.momsclubpghwest.org.
Applications for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program
(LIHEAP) are now being accepted. The federally funded program offers
low-income residents assistance in the form of crisis grants as well as cash
grants, sent directly to the utility company.
Individuals earning 150 percent of the federal poverty level are eligible
for assistance through LIHEAP. That translates to $17,235 for one
person, $23,265 for a family of two, $29,295 for a family of three,
$35,325 for a family of four, and $41,355 for a family of five.
State Senator Matt Smith urges people to contact his office at (412)
262-2260 for an application and assistance filling it out. Applications may
also be submitted online at www.compass.state.pa.us or through the
county assistance office.
NEW DENTIST JOINS STAFF
A new associate has joined the team of Dr. Judy
DiSanti, DMD. Lindsay Jodon, a native of eastern
Pennsylvania, moved to Pittsburgh in 2001, where
she earned her bachelor’s of science degree in
biology. She continued on to dental school and
graduated in 2009 from the University of
Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine.
SPC’S COMMUTE INFO
PROGRAM SEEKS VANPOOLERS
Are you or someone you know interested in vanpooling? The Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission’s CommuteInfo program is currently
looking for riders for a vanpool that travels from the Weirton, West
Virginia area with stops at the Imperial Park and Ride lot and the Oakland/
Lawrenceville area. Riders would arrive for work by 7:20 a.m. and leave
work by 4:40 p.m. There are other vanpool and carpool groups for
additional commuting locations and times.
If you want to sit back and let someone else drive, contact
CommuteInfo for more information at 1 (888) 819-6110 or visit
www.commuteinfo.org.
The SPC CommuteInfo® program is designed to increase the number of
people who travel to work or school by transit, carpool, vanpool, or
bikepool. CommuteInfo operates the region’s carpool and vanpool
program. Over 1,200 commuters a day ride in a CommuteInfo carpool or
vanpool. The goal is for commuters living, working, or attending school
within the 10-county SPC region (including Allegheny, Armstrong,
Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Greene, Indiana, Lawrence, Washington, and
Westmoreland counties) to choose ridesharing at least twice a week.

CLEARVIEW A 2013 TOP WORKPLACE
Clearview Federal Credit Union has been
recognized as a 2013 Top Workplace in the
Greater Pittsburgh area by the Pittsburgh PostGazette.
The Top Workplaces program was set up to
recognize companies that have a great workplace
and to encourage all organizations to improve the
quality of their workplace, according to the
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Clearview President/CEO Mark Brennan said,
“Clearview’s recognition is due to the dedication
and commitment of our workforce and the
employees’ desire to assist and improve the
personal financial condition of our members and
employees.”
A survey known as WorkPlaceDynamics was
used to analyze the responses of participating
companies employing 31,270 people in the region.
Any organization with more than 50 employees in
the Greater Pittsburgh area was eligible to
participate and provide its employees with a 25question survey. Companies were divided into
large, mid-sized, and small categories for separate
rankings.
MONTOUR STUDENTS
HONORED FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE
Two Montour students were among those
honored for their community service on
September 28 at the annual Bishop’s Tea at
St. Paul Seminary.
The Bishop's Tea is one of a series of events
leading up to the Medallion Ball, where the St.
Lucy's Auxiliary to the Blind honors candidates
by presenting them with the Joan of Arc
Medallion. The funds raised by the ball are used
to help the visually impaired at the Blind and
Vision Rehabilitation Services of Pittsburgh in
Homestead.
Bishop’s Tea Chair Roseanne Wholey says that
the mission of Auxiliary is to encourage and
inspire a lifetime commitment to volunteer service
in young women. This year, 107 candidates will
be presented from various sections of the city, all
of whom have completed a minimum of 150 hours
of volunteer service helping those in need.
Among those honored at this year’s Bishop Tea
were Montour students Emma Minsinger and
Emilie VanDyke.
YOUTH COMPETES IN
EQUESTRIAN COMPETITION
Eliana Davin, a third grade student at Burkett
Elementary, competed in her first equestrian

Eliana and her horse, Butter Me Up, were
awarded Horse On Course Hunter Jump Show

Did you know that airlines are offering more flights and more passenger seats at Pittsburgh International Airport than last year? That’s right, the number of flights are up and many of the aircraft are larger
now, so that means more seats!
New air service announcements include American Airlines upgrading its aircraft to the E175 on its
Pittsburgh-Chicago route and launching new daily nonstop flights from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles.
Southwest added new service to Nashville in September. Delta Airlines will add Saturday only nonstop
service from Pittsburgh to two Caribbean destinations, Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, and Nassau,
Bahamas on December 21.

The Allegheny County Airport Authority has received favorable ratings on its airport
revenue bonds by numerous rating agencies, including Fitch, Standard & Poor’s, and
Moody’s. These ratings reflect a long-term improved and stable financial outlook.
“I think this is a successful result based upon recent events such as the lease
agreement for gas drilling at the airport. The ratings agency recognized that Pittsburgh
has been successful in converting from a hub to a market where most begin and end
their trips here,” said David Minnotte, Chairman, Allegheny County Airport Authority.
The higher bond rating is a result of the Authority’s new lease agreement with
CONSOL Energy for oil and gas drilling rights on airport property.

Pittsburgh International Airport now has the Zipcar, a
car-rental service with five vehicles for rent at either $8.25
per hour or $65 per day.
Zipcar is the leader for cars on demand by taking the
simple concept of car sharing to new heights. They are
very popular because they are easy to reserve on line
with 24/7 access to thousands of cars around the globe.
And, they contribute to a greener environment due to
fewer cars, less congestion, and less pollution.
The vehicles are available in the Avis lot. Reserve a
Zipcar at zipcar.com.

STORY AND PHOTO
BY DOUG HUGHEY
The Mall at Robinson’s “Unofficial” Mayor
ABOVE: Harry and friends (counter clockwise): Shirley Nadeja, Bob Wagner, Pat Wagner, Genevieve Kiefer, Kay Sherbondy, Gerry Safko, Kenny
Safko, Bob Nadeja, and center, Harry Sherbondy.
In 2003, after Harry Sherbondy retired from 31 years of
teaching at West Allegheny School District, he took up a seat
next to a Starbucks in the center of The Mall at Robinson with
his wife, Kay. Sitting at a table in the mall’s central thoroughfare,
the couple got to know the mall’s regulars, many of whom were
seniors, including World War II veterans.
Ten years later, the former history and psychology teacher has
an official seat stamped with his name and a group of about 20
friends who stop and convene at Starbucks on any given day.
Taking up residence at the cafe area’s couches and tables, they
tell jokes, share stories and YouTube videos, jibe each other,
and celebrate birthdays and milestones.
“It’s through him that everyone started getting together,” says
Pat Wagner about Harry, who regularly visits with her husband,
Bob.
Recently, the group celebrated the final day of work for
Genevieve Kiefer, a mall customer relations associate who
worked in the adjacent mall information booth. Just like with
many of the group’s occasions, it was celebrated with cake.
Harry says that for a while, their numbers were up to 20, but
that in recent years they’ve lost a few who passed on, five of
whom were war veterans. Before he started teaching, Harry, too,
served in the military, in the Special Forces, and as a paratrooper in
the 82nd Airborne Division. He attended Fort Monmouth, and for
a time was a member at the 171st Air Refueling Wing in Moon. In
addition to teaching at West Allegheny, he also coached wrestling
for 13 years, spent 27 years heading up the school’s summer paint
crew, and ran the football clock for 25 years.
For a long time, Harry joked with mall manager Beth Edwards
that his seat should have his name stamped on it. In lieu of his
72nd birthday, Beth gave the go-ahead, and Harry’s request was
granted.
“We joked about his designated seating at the mall for so long,
that I decided he finally deserved to have an official seat,” says
Beth. “He is the mall mayor who has brought together tenants and
shoppers, as well as a very close group of friends.”
She says they’ve celebrated numerous birthdays, anniversaries,
and other occasions over the years, and become good friends.
According to Beth, Kay makes a delectable German chocolate
cake, but only once a year on Harry’s birthday.

PENNSBURY GETS NEW MANAGER
ABOVE: Renee Fremer has taken over the reins of managing Pennsbury
Village from Irv Foreman, who filled the role for 26 years.
This past June, Pennsbury Village, the tiny borough of condos
nestled in between Robinson Township and Rosslyn Farms, got a new
manager.
It was the first time in almost three decades that the borough, which
split from Robinson in the late 1970s following a bitter dispute over
sewage treatment fees, had someone else overseeing the municipality.
The former manger, Irv Foreman, filled that role for 26 years. The
manager immediately following him lasted two weeks.
Now sitting in the Pennsbury manager’s chair every Tuesday and
Thursday is Renee Fremer. A former Pennsbury resident herself,
Maureen, or Renee as her friends call her, retired a few years ago from
PPG’s purchasing department. Before that, she worked at EIMCO,
which gave her experience in the one field that allows Pennsbury to
remain its own, independent borough: wastewater treatment.
“When our guys talk about aerators and clarifiers, I know what
they’re talking about,” she says.
Pennsbury contracts with Carnegie for its police, fire, and animal
control, but otherwise handles its own maintenance, including snow and
trash removal, as well as tax collection and sewage treatment. Irv says
the borough of 500 condo units and 807 residents contains a mix of
people, from young couples to seniors, and that people feel comfortable approaching the borough office in such a small community.
For Renee’s part, she says she enjoys, among other things, playing
referee between neighbors. Irv points out her accounting background
also qualifies her to oversee the borough's finances. Before studying
accounting, Renee was studying as a concert pianist in college, a
discipline she says made her very detail oriented.
“She’s a really good appointment for a lot of different reasons,” says
Irv.
NORTHWEST SAVINGS BANK INVESTS IN CHILDRENS’ CREATIVITY AT FOCUS ON RENEWAL
Focus On Renewal (FOR) has received a $15,000 charitable donation from
Northwest Savings Bank through the Educational Improvement Tax Credit
(EITC) Program of the Pennsylvania Department of Community and
Economic Development (DCED). Under the program, FOR’s Father Ryan
Arts Center is approved as an Educational Improvement Organization (EIO),
qualifying the agency to receive donations.
Focus On Renewal will apply Northwest Savings Bank’s contribution to
support arts education classes and workshops for children at the Father
Ryan Arts Center. Children, youth, and teens from the economically
disadvantaged Sto-Rox community will be encouraged to participate in the
many classes and workshops offered year-round at the arts center.
Greg Quinlan, executive director of Focus On Renewal, said, “We're so
grateful to Northwest Savings Bank for supporting kids' creativity in this
community. This remarkable gift helps the Father Ryan Arts Center offer
affordable arts classes that engage and enrich children and families.”
Eric Dalton, manager of the bank office that serves the McKees Rocks and
surrounding communities, said, “At Northwest Savings Bank, we call
ourselves the bank where people make the difference, but it’s a true pleasure
for us to be able to support Focus on Renewal. They and their programs will
truly make a difference to the Sto-Rox community and we’re proud to be able ABOVE: Eric Dalton, manager of Northwest Savings Bank in McKees
Rocks, presents a check to F.O.R.’s executive director, Greg Quinlan.
to help.”
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.

If you find yourself in need of physical therapy due to an injury
or condition, there are several things that you should keep in mind
when choosing a treatment location. First, and most importantly,
realize that you do get to choose where you want to attend
physical therapy. Spend the time to research physical therapy
locations. Here are several suggestions for questions to ask your
physical therapist to ensure that you are in a clinic that is the best
fit for you:
1. :LOO\RXUHFHLYHRQHRQRQHLQGLYLGXDOL]HGFDUHDWSK\VLFDO
WKHUDS\" As a patient, you are unique and so are your physical
therapy needs. You should receive high-quality care in a location
where you and your treatment are not being juggled with numerous other patients by one therapist.
2. :KDWW\SHRIWUDLQLQJGRHV\RXU37KDYH" Not only does this
include the schooling that your PT has received, but also what
type of additional, specialized training your PT has completed.
The more education your PT has received, the more effective
treatment options they can offer during your rehabilitation process.
3. :KDWLVWKHHQYLURQPHQWRIWKH37FOLQLF" If you are attending
physical therapy, it is likely that you are experiencing pain. While
attending physical therapy may not always be an ideal situation; a
fun, relaxed, peaceful environment will help to ease any stress and
anxiety that often accompanies a painful injury. Feel free to ask
plenty of questions about what to expect and take the time to look
around and observe how the patients and staff are working together
to obtain optimal outcomes.
Patient care is individualized and will likely include some form
of manual therapy, many types which have required advanced
training that therapists have successfully completed. These
techniques include ASTYM, ART, Kinesio Taping, and Vestibular
Rehabilitation, and other specialized techniques.

Too early to think about New Year’s resolutions? No way! Not
if you want to be successful. Too often, those resolutions fall
by the wayside not long after the ball drops in Times Square. If
those resolutions are health related, the holiday season has
already created all sorts of challenges. With proper planning
and a determined spirit, we can be ready to meet those New
Year’s resolutions with great resolve. Do not think that on
January 1 you will just start with your healthy lifestyle. For
goals to be reached, a plan must be set. An effective exercise
program and a healthy diet won’t just happen. Think it through,
do some research, maybe even hire the services of an expert.
Keep in mind: a good plan does not have to be all or nothing. A
good plan allows for the lows as well as the highs, and includes
things that you like and will not find to be a great burden. An
effective exercise will be progressive, challenging, and fit into
your lifestyle. A healthy diet will include foods you like and are
accessible. Neither one has to be excessively time consuming if,
as I already said, you make and keep to a plan. And a good plan
starts with an assessment of your current lifestyle. How active/
sedentary have you been for the past year? What exercise have
you tried and found not to be for you? What is your eating
style? Where are you making mistakes in your diet? What
trendy diets have you tried for a short time just to find that you
can’t stick to it?
If you would like to make living a healthier lifestyle your New
Year’s resolution, now is the time to start planning…for success!
