PARSIPPANY — At a meeting held at Parsippany-Troy Hills Municipal Building on Monday, September 24, Mayor Michael Soriano presented a proclamation to Parsippanong Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), proclaiming the week of September 17 to September 23 “Constitution Week.”
Members of Parsippanong Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution attended the presentation.
Daughters of the American Revolution organization was founded in 1890 with the simple mission of promoting historic preservation, education and patriotism. These timeless, overarching principles keep the DAR strong and vitally relevant in this ever-changing world.
This nonprofit, nonpolitical volunteer women’s service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history and securing America’s future through better education consists of over 185,000 members in 3,000 chapters across the world. These vibrant, active women are the heart of the organization.
The grassroots work of DAR volunteers promotes the organization’s objectives of historic preservation, education and patriotism.
The Parsippanong Chapter was organized in the Parsippany-Troy Hills area on October 4, 1912, with Ruth E. Tichenor Fairchild (Mrs. Vandyke), Organizing Regent.
The Loantaka Chapter, which covered the areas of Chatham, Florham Park and Madison, New Jersey, was organized in 1927, with Jane Wilson Graham Ridley (Mrs. Joseph) as Organizing Regent. The Chapter was named for the original native Americans who lived in the vicinity.
Reflecting the abundant waters in the area, both names are native American names, one meaning “creek’ and the other, “place of two rivers.”
Past achievements of the Loantaka Chapter include their support of efforts to make Jockey Hollow a national memorial park, and participation in the celebration of the National Parks bicentennial in 1972. The Parsippanong Chapter sponsored Memorial Day Services at the Parsippany Presbyterian Church Cemetery where there are 84
Revolutionary War graves.

TRENTON — Governor Phil Murphy and New Jersey Democratic State Committee Chairman John Currie join Democratic leaders from across the state including Lt. Governor Sheila Oliver, First Lady Tammy Murphy and Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg in denouncing disparaging comments made by Rep. Leonard Lance (R-7). Lance was caught on tape saying he “tends not to believe” Dr. Ford’s allegations she was sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
STATEMENT
“We find it appalling that Congressman Lance would prejudge Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and refuse to even listen to her testimony before publicly declaring that he does not believe her. Dr. Ford has shown an incredible degree of courage in coming forward to tell her story, and Congressman Lance’s unwillingness to consider her testimony shows how little respect he has for survivors of sexual assault and for all women. Congressman Lance should be ashamed of himself and he owes an apology to his constituents, to sexual assault survivors and to women all over the country who are inspired by Dr. Ford’s strength and bravery.”

First Lady Tammy Murphy, Lieutenant Governor Sheila Oliver and Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg have also denounced Lance’s comments.
“Not only should everyone who has a serious allegation be heard, but the ongoing legitimacy of our Supreme Court hinges upon the handling of this hearing,” said First Lady Tammy Murphy. “I believe Dr. Ford — she is compelling, credible and an unwilling participant here who is stepping up and performing a heroic feat of civic duty. Sadly, even before Dr. Ford testified today, Congressman Lance dismissed Dr. Ford’s credibility and said he doesn’t believe her. Congressman Lance’s time is up, and it’s time for new leadership in Congress. That’s why I’m supporting Tom Malinowski, a fighter for women’s rights, and a person who would take the honorable steps to absolutely ensure a citizen is heard, and a proper investigation would follow.”
“Sexual assault is the most traumatic experience any woman could be forced to live with and questioning the credibility of a victim is simply unacceptable,” said Lieutenant Governor Sheila Oliver. “The nation watched as Dr. Ford provided hours of emotional testimony today detailing Judge Kavanaugh’s attack on her so he could be held accountable for his actions and ensure the next judge appointed to the Supreme Court will protect the values of all Americans. Congressman Lance’s attempt to further humiliate Dr. Ford is intolerable and not representative of New Jersey values. It is clear we need new leadership in the Seventh Congressional District to protect and defend the rights of women.”
“It doesn’t surprise me that Congressman Leonard Lance is falling in lock step with the good old boy’s club of his Republican party on Judge Kavanaugh. He said he ‘tends not believe the charges.’ How much more outrageous can it get?” said Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg. “He already formed an opinion without hearing her testimony! Dr. Ford is a courageous and brave young woman — She has chosen to come forward, disrupt her family, her life, her privacy and her safety to recount these traumatic events in front of Congress. These comments from Leonard Lance are irresponsible and wreak with partisanship without any regard for the survivor of a sexual assault — this is exactly why he should not be representing us in Congress. This is why we need Tom Malinowski. And we need him NOW! “

PEQUANNOCK — Morris County Prosecutor Fredric M. Knapp announces that on September 28, defendant Keith Enlow, 36, Pequannock, was sentenced to four years in New Jersey State Prison and ordered to pay full restitution by the Honorable Thomas J. Critchley, J.S.C. on one count of second-degree theft by deception.
This investigation was conducted by the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office Financial Crimes Unit. The case came to the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office as an allegation of the theft of
$472,000.00 from the victim.
The defendant, a former registered representative at a brokerage in Passaic County, convinced the victim to move her money into an online brokerage account where the defendant claimed he would manage the funds for the victim’s benefit.
After the money was moved, Enlow withdrew approximately $9,400.00 each month to pay for his own personal expenses. He also transferred money into accounts under his own name, in which he conducted highly speculative losing trades.
As a result of Enlow’s losing trades and the withdrawal of the victim’s money for his own benefit, the victim suffered a loss of $472,000.00 within approximately 18 months.
Supervising Assistant Prosecutor Michael Rappa represented the State at the sentencing. Prosecutor Knapp wishes to thank the Financial Crimes Unit of the Specialized Crimes Division in the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office for their successful investigation and prosecution of the defendant.

PARSIPPANY — John Guest USA, Inc. has completed their move to 20 East Halsey Road. Employees, executive and local dignitaries celebrated with a ribbon cutting on Friday, September 28.
The plumbing and industrial products manufacturer relocated its operations to the Parsippany industrial/flex property from Fairfield, in an expansion play, according to Colliers International. The building consists of 60,600 square feet.
Frank Cahill, Vice Chairman Parsippany-Troy Economic Development Advisory Committee presents a “Welcome Plaque” to the management of John Guest. Pictured is Sean McClenaghan, Mayor Michael Soriano, David Bullion, Frank Cahill and Parsippany-Troy Hills Economic Development Advisory Committee member Mr. Steve MandelEmployees, executives and local dignitaries gather around to cut the ribbon at John GuestMayor Michael Soriano greeting some of the new employees located in Parsippany
Colliers’ John Donnelly, based in the global commercial real estate services firm’s Parsippany office, represented John Guest USA in orchestrating the long-term lease. Thomas Consiglio and Scott Peck from Resource Realty served as brokers for property owner GTJ REIT.
According to Donnelly, John Guest USA’s growth in the plumbing market required an expanded space, driving the Northern New Jersey search for a new headquarters location. “The property at 20 East Halsey Road met these specifications beautifully, offering a large multi-purpose space, building signage and visibility from I-287. GTJ Management recently renovated the building – raising the roof, upgrading the power and sprinkler systems, and updating the landscaping program. That proactive move played a big part in securing John Guest USA’s commitment.”
Additionally, the property offers a generous, 15,000-square-foot office component, extra parking capacity and future building expansion potential. Donnelly noted that these features will enable his client to grow in place. John Guest, the manufacturer of push-fit fittings, valves, PEX pipe and LLDPE tubing completed their move recently.

TRENTON — The Assembly voted to allow the prosecution of chaperones who sexually assault minors in their care when the crimes are committed outside of New Jersey. The legislation is sponsored by Assemblywoman Holly Schepisi.
Two Paramus Catholic High School teachers were indicted for multiple acts of sexual misconduct involving three 17-year-old female students on a school-sponsored trip to Germany in 2011. A trial court and an appellate court ruled the men could be prosecuted because they assumed responsibility for the students in New Jersey. The teachers appealed to the New Jersey Supreme Court which ruled the state does not have jurisdiction to prosecute against sexual misconduct if it occurred outside the state even if it were a school chaperone.
“The three victims and their families were denied justice because the law as written is ambiguous,” said Schepisi (R-Bergen). “Two lower courts ruled the case could proceed and even the Supreme Court, in overruling the other two, said its decision ‘may be unsettling.’ Clearly, the law needs to be amended to better protect minors.”
The bill (A-1013) amends state statute granting state jurisdiction for sexual assault crimes committed outside of New Jersey when an individual has supervisory power over a minor.
“It’s outrageous that school employees accused of sexual assault with students who were entrusted to their supervision on a field trip got off scott free because the alleged crime occurred in another country,” concluded Schepisi. “Let’s ensure that anyone who commits a similar crime, under similar circumstances, especially with minors, will be prosecuted and tried.”
TRENTON — The Assembly unanimously approved a resolution designating September as Brain Aneurysm Awareness Month. Assemblywoman Holly Schepisi, the measure’s sponsor, survived a craniotomy and clipping to repair a potentially fatal brain aneurysm in May 2015.
“While falling asleep one evening I heard what sounded like a gunshot going off inside my head,” said Schepisi describing the cerebral attack. “Right then and there I should have gone to the hospital. Instead, I Googled it. Everything that came up pointed to a brain aneurysm, but it also said I would be incapacitated or dead. So I figured it wasn’t an aneurysm and went back to bed.”
Schepisi ignored some lingering symptoms for two more days before she realized something was seriously wrong.
“I had been feeling a little off and having some strange manifestations. I was in my car, and I felt my whole body going haywire,” said Schepisi. “I thought I was having a stroke so I drove myself straight to the emergency room.”
Within half an hour she was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. An initial attempt to fix the aneurysm through an angiogram and coiling was not possible. As a result she ultimately had surgery known as a craniotomy and clipping to repair part of the blood vessel that was dangerously close to rupturing.
Brain aneurysm ruptures occur approximately 40,000 times annually in the U.S. They are fatal almost half the time, and many more victims die of complications in the first six months. Brain aneurysms kill almost a half-million people each year worldwide.
“I was exceptionally lucky. I’m still alive without lifelong deficits, where a lot of others are not,” said Schepisi. “That’s why I am an advocate now. I want to make people aware of the signs and symptoms of brain aneurysms so they know what not to ignore. Identifying risk factors combined with early intervention is key to survival.”
That advocacy includes the resolution passed today in the Assembly.
“We can save lives by teaching people about the dangers of brain aneurysms and what to look out for,” Schepisi said. “From talking with people about my experience, everybody seems to know the warning signs and symptoms for heart attacks, strokes and cancer. People aren’t as aware of brain aneurysms, yet each year we have 40,000 people who end up with a ruptured aneurysm. The numbers are significant.”
The most common signs and symptoms of a ruptured aneurysm include: A sudden, severe headache often described as the “worst headache” ever experienced, nausea and vomiting, stiff neck, blurred or double vision, sensitivity to light, seizure, a drooping eyelid, numbness of one side of the face, dilated pupil, loss of consciousness and/or confusion.
“These are danger signs I should not have ignored,” Schepisi said. “Brain Awareness Month will spread the word so more people know how to spot this silent killer.”
