JNEWS: Andy Murphy (1947) http://www.dailyfreeman.com/site/news.cfm? 04/10/2007 *** begin quote *** Andrew J. Murphy III, 86, the city’s superintendent of recreation from 1948 to 1976, died Sunday after a long illness. “He left his mark on generations of kids, from kids in the city’s parks programs, to those who played ball in the various programs he started, to the college students who were playground counselors,” Dr. Nasser Habeeb, a prominent Kingston oral surgeon, said of Murphy’s passing. Habeeb, 61, served summers under
Murphy longer than most, through high school, college and dental school.
Assigned to “We were young. We made mistakes,” Habeeb said. “I never heard him raise his voice, yell at anybody. He’d explain how to do it right and that would be that.” Habeeb credited Murphy with bringing diversity to the city’s recreation programs. “He treated everybody the same, whether you were a doctor’s kid, lawyer’s kid, poor kid, black or white, boy or girl. He was way ahead of his time in that sense. The changes in society people were talking about in the ’80s, he was doing in the ’50s and ’60s.” Former Kingston Recreation Commission Chairman Ronald Woods, who worked with Murphy for most of his 28-year tenure, credited the ex-Marine officer with expanding the city’s programs from two or three parks to all 10 parks. “He had a special feeling for Murphy established programs in baseball, basketball and football for city youngsters, set up adult programs in slow-pitch softball and beach volleyball. “People marvel at the great athletes we’ve had at Woods said Murphy seldom had much of a budget to work with at the Recreation Department, “so he’d go out and raise it himself. It was pretty hard for most people to say ‘no’ to Andy Murphy,” he said. Murphy and his wife June of 61 years, had seven children, six of whom survive. June Murphy died two months ago. “He always made his plans around his family,” former
Freeman Sports Editor Ed Palladino remembered. “He
hated Murphy, a three-sport star athlete at “That’s all Andy ever wanted to talk about, Notre Dame football, the Yankees and politics,” Palladino said. Murphy ran for “They said he was the most popular man in town, but it was probably too late to run for mayor,” Habeeb said. Palladino remembered Murphy, as others did, as the most helpful of men. “When I got to town in 1958, one of the first things I did was introduce myself to Andy Murphy, since I was going to be writing about local sports,” he said. “Andy treated me like a father, took me around, introduced me to everyone. He was always my best friend in this city.” Current recreation Superintendent Kevin Gilfeather, appointed in 1996, recalled how years after
he retired, Murphy, a graduate of “He didn’t have to do that. He did it because he cared about those people,” Gilfeather said. “Believe me, it was mutual.” There is a plaque dedicated to Murphy at Dietz Stadium
where he served as stadium director for several years after he retired, but
none at the Gilfeather called that an oversight that needs to be corrected, “particularly from this department because of the legacy he left us, not just for the workers, but for all the community to enjoy.” *** end quote *** # # # {MikeMcE reports: Dear John, I believe that Andy is a member of the Class of 1947.

From: Vincent M. Cramer [1968] John, This is a sad way to start the day. As you mentioned, in the Fanny Farmer building we were put in alphabetical pens. Most of the guys that I knew well have names beginning with C and D. However, I looked at the '68 yearbook to see if I would recognize John Grant. I did, but I really don't have a personal recollection of him. I only remember that he was as Irish as Irish could be. As you said, "this strikes home" and that was the effect this announcement had on me. Reading the words in John's obituary made me realize how great the guys were in our class. I don't remember meeting one guy that wasn't a great guy to hang around with. Last Saturday, my daughter was married (to a guy from In my welcoming toast the topic that I chose was "Create Memories."

From: Kevin Moore [1980] Dear CIC, I would like to
share with you and our fellow Jaspers some good news which occurred during
this past Holy Week for those of us involved with the pro-life movement. Two 24 hour prayer vigils were held in
front of abortion businesses from 12:00pm Good Friday to 12:00pm Holy
Saturday, one in Brooklyn, and one in Kevin Moore ‘80 {JR: Each one of us has to do what we feel is right. I’m not sure if “abortion capital of the world” is a correct label. And, I don’t think we should ever force our beliefs on people. That being said, we certain can try to sway people over to our way of thinking. Recently on the tv show House on Fox5 in NYC, they had an espisode where the writers lifted that “tiny hand photo” and put it in their story line. After being grasped by the “tiny hand” the lead doc changed calling the fetus to “him”. Maybe we need more wins like that to worm into people’s minds that they are more than a parasitic lump. Maybe we can change “the laws” to stand silent on the issue and allow people to find their own answers. (It does strike me befuddled to call what the gooferment does as a “law”. Diktat maybe. Gravity, now that’s a “law”.) No thanks need for Jasper Jottings; it’s a hobby. Thanks for writing in. It gets lonely here in the editor’s office when there’s nothing to “print”. } |

The following are just a few of the industry leaders who have made a difference in the industry and continue to do so as innovators, savvy business people or savvy marketers. Their contributions to the industry offer examples that others can follow to advance the cause of fitness in this era of obesity. {Extraneous Deleted} Ken Germano, founder, Operation Fit Kids Ken Germano remembers flipping
through muscle magazines as a teenager in The former president of the American Council for Exercise spent more than two decades in the corporate sector of the fitness industry, including a stint at manufacturer Life Fitness. While working at Life Fitness, his company received daily requests from the California Boys and Girls Club for extra Life Cycles. The company obliged when it could, but eventually, Germano decided to help children on a larger scale by starting Operation Fit Kids, which provides used fitness equipment to schools. To get support for his program, he enlisted the help of Arnold Schwarzenneger and set up a meeting with the actor and politician to discuss his idea. “He patted me on the chest and said, ‘It’s a wonderful idea, Ken. We’ll support you but the challenge is all yours,’” Germano says. Germano went on to launch the program,
in which health clubs donate used fitness equipment to schools and receive a
tax benefit for the charitable donations. Upon the donation of his first 300
pieces of equipment, Germano remembers spending

JBlogger: Christine Gianino (2008) http://quasimodo86.livejournal.com/288708.html Current mood: hopeful L.O.V.E. Mexico — please help me fundraise! This June, I’m participating in my very first service
trip. I, along with about a dozen other I’m really excited to go on this trip and help the community through our work. I’m already counting on it to be somewhat of a life-altering experience. However, the only obstacle to my participation is the money. As a team, we need to fundraise $13,000. I personally am responsible for raising approximately $980. So far, I’ve raised about $100 — from my parents. And they’re not going to give me any more. :( It’s okay… I still love them. If you can help me out at all, even if it’s just a dollar, please donate! You can do this in one of two ways: 1. Mail a check, made out to
Write my name (Christine Gianino) as the subject of the check. All donations are tax-deductible! # # # {JR: If everyone sends a buck, she’ll have her goal. And, the funny part is she’ll never know how it happened. } |
