The CastersInformation regarding the article: “Fromfriends over the pond,” COURIER, July 17.Dear Editor:

Doris and Edward Caster were mem-bers of the Scripps raculty for manyyears. Doris Caster was director of theScripps Chorus and her husband EdwardCaster was a professor of biology andpsychology. They were both killed, I be-lieve, in 1958, as a result of an automo-bile crash. They were on their way to acollege “Surprise Day” event out oftown with several students as passengersin their car, when they were struck by atruck as they were turning onto Moun-tain Avenue from Arrow Highway. Dr.Caster died instantly and his wife a fewhours later. I believe the students lived.

People in the college community wereovercome with shock, grief and disbeliefas the Casters had been a vital part of ourlives. It is nice to think that a memorialbench that they contributed exists inEngland! Perhaps Scripps or theCOURIER could establish a site wherefunds might be donated to replace theold bench. Diane Divelbess

Scripps alumnaClass of 1957

Caster benchesDear Editor:

In the July 17 COURIER, you askedfor information on the Casters. Jay Ed-ward Caster taught biological sciences atScripps from 1935 until 1960. Doris Bu-riff Caster was director of the ScrippsCollege Choir from 1936 until 1960.They were killed in an automobile acci-dent in March 1960.

In those days, Scripps observed a Sur-

prise Day each spring when the entirecommunity skipped classes for a day andwent on an outing to the desert, beach orother informal destination. The Castersand three student passengers, who wereunhurt, were part of a caravan headingout to the desert.

It appears that the benches in Dorch-ester-on-Thames were in memory of theCasters, so someone must have giventhem after March 1960. They had nochildren, so the donor could have been aformer student or other friends who wereinvolved in the upkeep of the cathedralthere. The Casters lived in Padua Hillsand, living in Claremont for so manyyears, no doubt had many friends as wellas decades of Scripps alumnae who re-membered them Judy Harvey Sahak

Holding on Dear Editor:

It is very sad to drive around the citywhich I have lived for almost 40 yearsand look at the yards that I rememberwith lush grass turned into gravel pitswith weeds—excuse me, gorgeous suc-culents. I am trying to hang on to mygrass and don’t want to feel guilty aboutit. I will do whatever it takes to keep myinvestment in my lawn.

Droughts come and go, and I can re-member the canyon by my home beingblessed with a huge waterfall some yearsago after heavy rains for three weeks.Now, it is a drain pipe. However, I canhope that El Niño will come this winterand maybe my lawn will be saved with abelt from nature. Jacqueline Mahoney

On Tuesday evening,hundreds of Clare-monters, joined by

residents from neighboring ar-eas, descended on MemorialPark for National Night Out.The weather was gracious con-sidering the recent heat wave,with temperatures cooling tothe 70s and accompanied by agentle breeze.

Attendees had the chance to minglewith friends and, in the case of youngerguests, tire themselves out on the play-ground equipment. Then, come dusk, thecrowd settled back to enjoy an al frescoscreening of the animated family movieBig Hero 6.

The event was sponsored by the Clare-mont Police Department, marking the cul-minating event in its annual SummerMovies in the Park series. Per usual, CPDsupplied tickets in advance for the bignight—550 in all—to residents cravingsome fresh-made grub from the In-In-Outburger truck.

Along with numerous representativesof Claremont police, there was a boothpresented by Keeping Good in OurNeighborhood. Founded by Claremontresident Betty Crocker, KGNH is a neigh-borhood watch movement that espouses acommitment to “vigilant kindness.” In thecase of National Night Out, that kindnessincluded free KGNH T-shirts.

National Night Out isn’t just a local af-fair. It’s a country-wide campaign by theNational Association of Town Watch, anetwork of law enforcement agencies,neighborhood watch groups and crimeprevention associations. Its aim, accordingto the NATW website, is to “enhance therelationship between neighbors and lawenforcement while bringing back a truesense of community.”

Bringing the police together with thecommunities they patrol is especially im-

portant in today’s climate, where isolatedinstances of racial profiling and excessiveforce by a few officers have, among somepeople, engendered suspicion and evenhostility towards police personnel.

“The overall message is that there needsto be transparency throughout law en-forcement, and that it’s important to buildrelationships with the people we serve,”Claremont Police Sergeant Robert Rauch-fuss said.

Of course, Sgt. Rauchfuss—who hasbeen with the CPD since 1996—has a

leg-up in that respect. He says “it’s awe-some” working in Claremont because hegrew up here, attending local schools likeEl Roble and Claremont High. “It’s nice togo back and visit my old teachers,” hesaid.

He’s proud of the efficiency of theClaremont Police Department, which inthe previous week had arrested three bur-glars along with recovering their victims’property.

Kim Sink, who teaches at Condit Ele-mentary School, spent Tuesday evening

the way she spends school days, sur-rounded by kids. When the COURIERstopped by her network of blankets, shewas handing out snacks and glow neck-laces to her children, 7-year-old Sophiaand 5-year-old Dominic, as well as herfriends’ kids, Kannon and Chase Walterand Ryan McCallister, who are 6, 4 and 5,respectively.

Ms. Sink appreciates the safe atmos-phere of Claremont as well as the tight-knit community. Having lived in the City

‘Night Out’ unites community, local law enforcement

The annual event is an opportunity for citizens to interact with law enforcement in an open house environment.Mr. Demonaco was enjoying the night air with friends from Purpose Church and Flood Church, where he leads a youthgroup. City Councilmember Sam Pedroza, behind McGruff, makes his way to the food truck.

Forbes recently released its eighth an-nual ranking of America’s Top Col-leges, and Pomona College has

nabbed the No. 1 spot. The designation marks the first time a southern Cali-

fornia school has topped the list. Williams College,Forbes’ top pick last year, was bumped down to No. 2,followed by Stanford, Princeton and Yale at numbersthree, four and five, respectively.

Forbes rates schools on a return-on-investment scale,awarding points for “low debt, high graduation rates,student satisfaction and career success.”

Forbes notes some trends among its top-rankingschools, including low student/faculty ratios (8:1 atPomona College) and high retention rates. The schoolsare all quite venerable, with 1887-founded Pomona Col-lege being the youngest.

Among the local liberal arts college’s specific draws,Forbes cites the fact that 57 percent of freshmen receivegrants averaging almost $40,000. That’s certainly a plusat a campus where the annual cost of attendance aver-

ages $62,632. Another positive is the proximity and access

Pomona’s 1,610 students have to the other undergradu-ate institutions in the Claremont Colleges consortium.The Forbes profile notes that around 80 percent of

Pomona students have taken a class at a neighboring col-lege.

Pomona sophomore Marisol Diaz discussed on hercollege choice in a recent ABC7.com interview. “A lotof students here got accepted to Ivy League schools. Weapplied. We thought about them. They were options forus, but Pomona just fit us better,” she said.

Striving students pay attention to Forbes’ list, soPomona College President David Oxtoby has warnedthe admissions staff that they may receive more appli-cations next year.

In a KPCC interview, Mr. Oxtoby was asked how thecollege managed to shoulder its way to the top of therankings.

“There’s a recognition of quality of our education, thefinancial resources that we provide for financial aid foraccessibility and affordability and the outcomes that ourstudents are going on to do amazing things,” Mr. Ox-toby said. “I don’t think that changed dramatically thisyear, but maybe just enough to push us to No. 1.”

of Trees since she was three, she constantly encounterspeople she’s known for years. “His mom and I went tokindergarten together,” she said, indicating Ryan.

Ms. Sink has been a kindergarten teacher since 2000and, though some view teaching the youngest of school-children as a challenge, she relishes the job. “I love thekids,” she said. “To me, it’s so important to start themoff with a good foundation. That’s where I want to be.”

Seventeen-year-old Mackenzi Lamott has a numberof interests. The senior has earned a spot on ClaremontHigh School’s all-girls choir and competed with Clare-mont’s Goltz Judo. What the teen really wants, though,is to be in law enforcement.

To that aim, Mackenzi recently became an Explorerwith the Claremont Police Department, where she willlearn about police work by taking ride-alongs with of-ficers and helping with the department’s communityevents. Mackenzi also lent her pipes to National NightOut, delivering a stirring a capella version of “The StarSpangled Banner” before the movie started.

After polishing off their burgers, Don and VaniaChavez and their kids, Nathalia, 10, and Nathan, 14,spoke to the COURIER about what brought them to thepark and to the city in general.

Seven years ago Mr. Chavez, an IT worker with the ElMonte School District, and Ms. Chavez, a nurse in Nor-walk, were looking for a place to buy a house. He saidClaremont was the perfect fit because of its fine schooldistrict. “We also love the trees and the way it’s college-oriented and family-oriented,” Ms. Chavez added.

The family gets out to the city’s summer concerts andmovies as often as possible. “It’s great to catch up witheveryone, because during summer break we don’t oftenget to see the families from school,” Ms. Chavez said.

Nathalia, who says she likes Claremont “because it’squiet,” attends Mountain View Elementary. Nathan willbe a sophomore at CHS and is a linebacker with the jun-ior varsity football team. Luckily, the team features“cool guys,” because five days a week this summer, theyoung athletes lift in the CHS weight room from 8:45to 11 a.m. and return for practice from 3 to 6 p.m.

Speaking of cool guys, Kiwanian Bob Fagg and hiswife Sonja Stump, who were manning Kiwanis’ icecream booth, wanted to give a shout out to the manygenerous Claremonters. These include Tony and Gudu

Husson, brothers and co-owners of the local fro-yochain 21 Choices. For more than 20 years, the Hussonshave donated frozen yogurt to be sold by Kiwanis dur-ing Concerts in the Park and for the Fourth of July cel-ebration.

“They are so important to this town in so manyways,” Mr. Fagg said.

He and Ms. Stump are likewise important, lendingsweat equity to the efforts of Kiwanis and helping co-ordinate the efforts of the Village Marketing Group,among other endeavors.

“We are passionate about volunteering, but we are justcogs in the wheel,” Mr. Fagg said. “My heroes are reg-ular people doing good things.”

The COURIER staff also welcomes this kind of com-munity event, because it gives readers a chance to share

feedback about local coverage.Two National Night Out attendees, who preferred to

remain nameless, even engaged in some gentle ribbing.In recent months, the COURIER has found itself in pos-session of a “drone” camera, making it possible to cap-ture images with a bird’s-eye view. Our enthusiasm forthe new technology has not gone unnoticed.

“We’ve got a drinking game. We take a shot everytime there’s a drone picture on the cover of theCOURIER,” one man said. “We also take a shot when-ever there’s a photo of [city council member] Sam Pe-droza in the paper,” his buddy quipped.

Both types of photo-ops are in evidence in this issueof the paper, so bottoms-up, gentlemen.

Claremont High School’s footballcoach Coco Jarin has been on thejob for six months, however, he

has yet to see his team testedin an actual game. That willall change this month whenthe Pack travels to Chino in a pre-seasonscrimmage against Don Lugo on the 21st,followed the next week with a home gameagainst El Rancho.

Coach Jarin has been an assistant coach for over 30years, but he has had to adjust a bit to the job of run-ning his own program.

“Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it,”he said recently following practice at CHS. “Being anassistant for 34 years, you’re really enjoying being afootball coach, and not really recognizing all of thehats a head coach puts on. You really don’t appreciateit ‘til you have to go get fitted for all of those hats.”

One of those hats involves selecting the players whowill start for the Pack this season and motivating play-ers to make that cut.

“Our mission statement, our mantra, is to create abetter version of ourselves every step of our lives. Soif we’re not elevating, then we are right where wewere yesterday,” he said. “The kids are embracing thatand trying to make that happen.”

Coach Jarin took over after the retirement of long-

time coach Mike Collins, who had a pretty good yearin 2014 with an overall record of 6-5 including win-ning all four home games. However, the Pack had dis-appointing results in 2013, winning only one game, sothe program certainly has some challenges.

“If you are a competitive person then challengesare exciting,” he said. “When you know you’ve got togo up against El Rancho, then play Glendora and atough Ayala team after opening up against Bonita,there is no relaxing. You’ve got to go to work, and thekids recognize that.”

Claremont has a new quarterback in senior RainePohaku Kaheaku-Paiva, a transfer student fromPaloma Valley High School in Menifee. Last year, hehad some impressive stats including 132 completionsfor 218 attempts, 14 touchdown passes and 1437 totalyards averaging 133 yards per game.

Returning from last year is multiple-sport standoutjunior Duy Tran-Sampson, who will anchor the Pack’srunning game at tailback. Tran-Sampson, who alsoperformed well on the track team, was on the secondteam all-state last year.

“Without a doubt, our tailback is one of the bestrunning backs in California,” said Coach Jarin.

On defense, sophomore Solomon Tuliaupupu—a

six-foot-three, 225 pound linebacker—is already beinglooked at by Pack 12 scouts, according to Coach Jarin.

“We’re going to make some noise. I think this foot-ball team has a lot to prove. They work real hard and arenot taking anything for granted. They’re definitely ateam that wants to earn it and have the respect of theirpeers on the football field,” he said. “If the ball bounceswell for us, we are going to have a good season.”

It turned out that Emma was taking usthe long way. What should have beena 17-minute trip ended up taking 45

minutes. There were an awful lot of rightand left turns, coming one right after theother, and we found ourselves driving onthe same roads and the same highwayseveral times. After a while, Reginaldjoined in but he basically gave the samedirections.

Not to worry, though. My two friends and I had leftearly, so we weren’t late. Instead of being super-earlyand perhaps rude, we were right on time. What’s more,all those right turns and left turns were quite lovely,bringing us down quiet roads lined with beautiful treesand charming cottages or through golden fields dottedwith livestock and storybook barns. Each turn waslovelier than the last, and seeing the same roads sev-eral times was no problem.

Even the highway was attractive, more like a ver-dant main road rolling over the hills than a state thor-oughfare, easy on the eyes during our repeat jaunts onit. But there was a problem—we were lost. We had noidea how to get to where we were going and weregoing around in circles. It was hard not to panic, espe-cially with the phones and GPS guides—affectionatelydubbed Emma and Reginald, the latter of whom is abit more bossy, only giving directions without thestreet names (“Now turn right”)—losing their connec-tion or running out of power.

It turns out that Grass Valley and Nevada City,mashing up seamlessly along Highway 49 in therolling foothills northeast of Sacramento, are an aw-fully nice place to get lost, go in circles and evenpanic. For the last five or six years, I have been goingto Grass Valley in mid-July to camp at a music festivalat the Nevada County Fairgrounds. But it has beenmany more years since I took time to explore these“Gold Country” towns. And, ironically, I saw more oftheir neighborhoods on this misguided outing.

That’s the best thing about trips: the unexpected ad-ventures when we see things that people don’t usuallysee, even when they spend time on a visit. That andmeeting people and making new friends. My friendsand I were enjoying both; we were on our way to visitsomeone I had met a week earlier at a meeting in

Marin County.It just so happened that my friends and I would be

attending the music festival in Grass Valley. So wewould be in his neighborhood (his neck of the woods)for a visit before heading back to Claremont via LakeTahoe and Bishop. These sorts of unexpected side tripsand stops are another bonus in traveling.

An additional bonus in this side trip was how it pro-vided another view of Claremont. Yes, this little jaunt,getting lost and driving in circles in Grass Valley andNevada City, opened a new window into our fair littlecity for me.

It made me appreciate Claremont even more andrecognize how fair, how attractive, how beautiful andlovely our little city is. We always like to say howwonderful and unique Claremont is, but it turns outthat’s more than wishful thinking or civic pride.

As I learned not long before this trip and mentionedin my last column, Claremont has been named byTheCultuTrip.com, a travel website, as one of the 10most beautiful towns on the west coast. That’s not all,though. In this list, it is one of four—only four—townsin California. The other four include, yes, NevadaCity, as well as Cambria and Mendocino.

Think about it. Claremont is seen, by at least some,to be as fair and charming as these lovely getawayspots. Is there any one of us who wouldn’t jump at thechance to spend a week, a weekend or even a night inCambria or Mendocino? Most of us savor a day spentin one of these idyllic burgs, especially when theyaren’t so crowded. The same goes for Nevada City,though it may not be as well-known.

So Claremont is now seen, or increasingly seen, asa charming, picturesque town, a getaway spot right upthere with Cambria and Mendocino and the beautifulGold Country. Is this surprising? Is this a shock? Per-haps. It certainly got a “wow!” out of me. But maybeit shouldn’t be.

After all, my last column‚the one in which I men-tioned the list on TheCultureTrip.com, was all abouthow Claremont is like one big park, ideal for a sum-mer afternoon or evening respite. Not only are there an

impressive number of city parks, there are the Col-leges with all their park-like acres. Even with the fad-ing lawns in this unprecedented summer of drought,they still offer a peaceful escape, complete with theirnoted trees. Indeed, Claremont’s trees and urban forestwas a major factor in the website’s citation.

And there are plenty of stories about people gettingout and enjoying Claremont and its urban forest, not tomention its cultural opportunities and its unique shopsand restaurants. In the same edition of the COURIER,there was not only an article about another new restau-rant in town but a feature on the Claremont Senior Bi-cycle Group. Sponsored by the super-active ClaremontSenior Program—yet another stand-out in this com-munity—the group plans and leads regular weeklyrides on our pleasant streets. Longer rides furtherafield are also on the schedule but, as Angela Baileypoints out in the article, “There is no better place to bea cyclist than the City of Trees. With over 30 linearmiles of bicycle infrastructure and organizationsgeared towards all ages and cycling skill levels, Clare-mont—which has been designated as a bike-friendlycity by the League of American Cyclists—is a havenfor cyclists.”

It turns out that, with all our trees, this is actually ahealthier town. According to a study published in Sci-entific Reports analyzing two sets of data fromToronto, adding 10 trees to a street can make a resi-dent feel seven years younger. Furthermore, the studyfound that residents on streets with a higher density oftrees are less likely to have cardio-metabolic condi-tions such as hypertension, obesity and diabetes.

“Trees remove pollutants from the air, so it could bethe cleaner air, or it could be that adding more trees ona street encourages people to get outside and exercisemore,” said Marc Berman, director of the Environ-mental Neuroscience Laboratory at the University ofChicago and the senior author of the paper. “Or itcould be that the environment is more beautiful, andthat contributes to health.”

We should be pretty darn healthy here with morethan 24,000 trees. That’s right, there are over 24,000trees in Claremont and, in a project carried out by stu-dents in Pomona College professor Char Miller’s Envi-ronmental Analysis 190 class, they are all “mapped”online. For information on any of the trees lining Clare-mont’s streets or in its parks and other public places,visit claremontsurbanarboretum.wordpress.com.

I wonder if Nevada City can beat that.

Inland Valley Daily Bulletincolumnist David Allen, aClaremont resident, re-

cently posted on Facebook thatthe Special Olympics WorldGames had a picture of hosttown Claremont on its websitethat didn’t look much like theClaremont we all know.

The picture shows a view from the hillsoverlooking the city, a university and a largebody of water. It was taken from Claremont,but from the Claremont neighborhood ofBerkeley, California. The university is notone of the Claremont Colleges, but UCBerkeley. And the large body of water is notthe swamp that once occupied Pilgrim Place,but the San Francisco Bay.

Evidently, an enthusiastic website devel-oper for the Special Olympics searched fora picture of Claremont and the view ofBerkeley was found and posted. When youclick the link for the “Official ClaremontWebsite,” it does take you to the much drier“City of Trees.”

Yet, the mistaken identity on the websiteis not without a connection between theClaremont neighborhood of Berkeley andthe city of Claremont.

The “father” of Claremont, Henry AustinPalmer, had lived in the Claremont area ofBerkeley prior to coming to southern Cali-fornia in 1882. The northeast portion of ourClaremont, known as Piedmont Mesa, wasso named by Mr. Palmer. According to for-mer Claremont resident Ruth Breslin, whoresponded to the Facebook post and cur-rently lives in Berkeley, Mr. Palmer lived onPiedmont Avenue in Berkeley, directlyacross from where the university footballstadium is now located.

Mr. Palmer was responsible for much ofwhat has become Claremont. He assisted inthe incorporation of the Pomona Land andWater Company and the Pomona Bank,serving as president of both. He convincedthe Santa Fe Railroad to build its routethrough northern Pomona, making it possi-ble for Claremont to be founded. The rail-road had been looking at a southerly route,near what is currently San Bernardino Roadin Pomona or a northern route near BaseLine Road. Mr. Palmer suggested that if theSanta Fe built between the two, it could es-tablish several new towns.

The Pomona Land and Water Companysold its holdings in northern Pomona to thePacific Land Improvement Company. Itsmajor stockholder, C.W. Smith of Kansas,was the first vice president of the Santa FeRailroad. Mr. Palmer also sold some of his

property and home, El Alisal, which is nowMemorial Park, to the Pacific Land Im-provement Company. Pacific Land plottedthe new town on 365 acres it owned and onsome 65 acres owned by Mr. Palmer.

In February of 1887, the PomonaProgress newspaper noted the sale: “A largeplaza will be in the center of town. The SB& LA RR [later purchased by Santa Fe] is togo through the lower portion of the town. Aname has not been selected. Among thoseproposed are North Pomona, Alisal, ClaraVista, Corona, Springfield, Claremont, etc.”

Within a month, the name Claremont hadbeen selected. In March of 1887, theProgress reported, “Claremont is the nameof the new town on the San Bernardino andLos Angeles Railroad.”

The article reported that “The townsite isbeautifully located on a mesa, some 1200feet above the level of the sea, and at pres-ent is covered with a vast grove ofsycamores. A large gang of brush cuttersare at work—cleaning the land of all the un-dergrowth and trees which will be in the wayof streets, avenues and parks.”

In her book, Claremont, a Pictorial His-tory, Judy Wright explains that “There is lit-tle documentation but there are several leg-ends or stories about how Claremont wasnamed.”

Ms. Wright notes that a director of theland company was from Claremont, NewHampshire. Another possibility was that theSanta Fe directors preferred Claremont be-cause it was more familiar than many of theSpanish names submitted. Ultimately, Ms.Wright believed that Mr. Palmer suggestedClaremont as a nod to Berkeley. But, as shestated, “All or part of these stories may betrue, but it is interesting to examine what

documentation does exist.”In a 1907 letter to Frank Wheeler, a

prominent Claremont real estate developerand the father of State Route 30, Mr. Palmerwrote:

“When a name for the townsite came tobe chosen, I was consulted but knew thechoice would ultimately be made in Boston.They had cautiously offered to give it myname, but I advocated a Spanish name, as awide range of choice could be had, eachexpressive, and pertinent and withal musical.The result was, I submitted a list of about ahalf dozen names, each expressive of thegrand view of the Sierra (Madre). And as Igave it in, it was asked if there was no Eng-lish name that nearly or practically carriedthe same idea. I therefore added the name‘Claremont,’ calling attention to the fact thatit was a somewhat strained definition of theidea ‘a clear view of the mountains.’ Whenaction was taken in Boston, scant consider-ation was given to my Spanish suggestions,but Claremont was seized upon by one ofthe officials as a compliance with my sug-gestion—also stating that he had lived in ornear Claremont, New Hampshire—and sothe name was given in his honor.”

Claremont could easily have becomePalmer or Alisal or any of the other namesHenry Palmer submitted to the Santa Fe di-rectors. However, it was Claremont he sub-mitted and was selected by the directors.All evidence suggests that name could onlyhave come from his association with hisformer neighborhood in Berkeley.

unteer docent, she enjoyed giving tours tochildren and marching in the ClaremontFourth of July parade with other Gardenvolunteers. She retired from volunteeringat the RSABG after 20-plus years of serv-ice with the special honor of Nature In-terpreter Emerita.

ping coupons with zeal and buying qual-ity products only at deep discounts. Shewas upbeat and energetic about life, mak-ing a hobby of “liking” Facebook photosof her new granddaughter. Most impor-tant to her was being a mother. Her chil-dren are forever grateful for theinnumerable hours she spent on southern

Virginia “Jeanie” Helen Sheahan, a longtime resi-dent of La Verne and Claremont, died on July 27,2015, surrounded by her family. She was 71.

She was born on Christmas day, 1943 in Chicago,Illinois to James W. and Phyllis Dohm Sheahan. Herfamily moved to California in 1947, settling in Alham-bra where Jeanie lived for 20 years, attending St.Stephen Martyr elementary school in nearby MontereyPark followed by San Gabriel Mission High School.

Ms. Sheahan moved to Claremont in the early ‘80sand fell in love with the town, its thoughtful architec-ture and rich history. She loved poring through oldphotographs showing the City of Trees in a bygoneera.

She developed a passion for music and theater at ayoung age, performing in high school and becoming amember of the La Verne vocal group A Special Com-pany. Ms. Sheahan had a particular affinity for musi-cal theater, playing in the Gallery Theatre’s produc-tion of Fiddler on the Roof and in Arise Theatre’sMeet Me in St. Louis.

Over the years, she enjoyed heading to Los Angelesto take in performances like Phantom of the Opera.One of her favorite memories was the time she trav-eled to Chicago to visit her favorite aunt, Rita DohmBuelens—who will turn 100 this September—and,while there, caught a production of Wicked.

Closer to home, she was a regular guest at Clare-mont’s Candlelight Pavilion dinner theater, with fa-vorite shows being the perennial classics Music Manand South Pacific. Ms. Sheahan was an art afi-cionado as well. After taking classes in creatingstained glass, she made many lovely pieces for herfriends and family.

Spending time outdoors was another of Jeanie’spastimes. She was an avid gardener, who never met aflower she didn’t like, and delighted in visiting thebeautifully landscaped grounds of the Huntington Li-brary. She could regularly be seeing strolling aroundClaremont, generally wearing headphones becauseshe liked to listen to books on tape as she walked. Aregular at the Claremont Library, Ms. Sheahan gravi-tated towards thrillers, with Stephen King being hergo-to author, as well as books about science, astron-omy and space exploration.

Jeanie was a civic volunteer throughout her life.She volunteered her time and talent with the RedCross, travelling to Mississippi after Hurricane Kat-rina. She was also a volunteer with Habitat for Hu-manity and a lifelong supporter of St. Jude’s Hospitaland World Vision.

Jeanie was an employee of Perkin Elmer Aerospacefor many years, and then a secretary for the La VernePolice Department. Her most important job, though,was her role as a loving mother, grandmother, sister,aunt and friend. Her love of family was particularlyevident during the holidays, when she threw largedinner parties for relatives.

“I think what I’ll miss most about her is the way shewould always burst into song,” her daughter Janetsaid.

Ms. Sheahan is survived by her four siblings, JimSheahan, MaryBeth Sheahan Panton and her husbandNeil Panton, Tom Sheahan, and Catherine SheahanSahu and her husband Ranajit Sahu; by her four chil-dren, Janet Major Beyke and her husband MichaelBeyke, Nancy Major and her husband Steve Mejia,Andrew Major, and John Major and his wife BrandyFlores. She also leaves her seven grandchildren,Phillip, Aaron, Claire, Charlotte, Adam, Jackson andStella, her great-grandchildren Amelia and Finneganand many other close family members.
