VOC man displays true patriotic spirit
John Cornelius
works for disabled
veterans in hospital
By Lu Stitt
LARSON NEWSPAPERS
The patriotic holidays
have begun and so has John
Cornelius.
Each year the 90-plus-year-
old Cornelius puts together a
campaign around the patriotic
holidays to raise money that
will go to help the disabled
veterans at the Bob Stump
Veterans Affairs Medical
Center in Prescott. Normally
Cornelius starts his campaign
on the Fourth of July. This
year, at the suggestion of Jake
Weber, Cornelius is ,hosting a
veterans event on Memorial
Day weekend, Sunday and
Monday, May 30 and 31.
"Maybe by starting earlier
we'll raise more money. Our
goal is $25,000, and I think
we'll do it," the always posi-
tive Cornelius said. "You can't

said, who was fortunate to
have escaped being wounded
in action.
Five years ago when
Cornelius started his campaign,
there were 360 disabled
veterans in the Prescott
hospital. Today there are more
than 2,800 in-patient veterans
there, Cornelius said. He visits
the hospital and the veterans
there several times a year.
"Most of our disabled
veterans are well decorated in
addition to the Purple Heart.
They had the courage to step
out and do what was necessary
in battle," Cornelius said.
At the hospital, the veterans
receive a lot of services such as
greeters, a guest shuttle, news-
papers, flowers, treats of fresh
fruit and popcorn, welcome
kits, birthday surprises and
flowers as part of the Guest
Services Program which began
in 1994. The program applies
hotel-type amenities and
services to the hospital setting.
'Now, I don't do all of this by
myself. A lot of people help me
out, like Dave Johnson. He'll be
there in his Uncle Sam outfit and
Ed Lajala is helping. People have
been extremely generous. We
all should be for our veterans.
They're the ones who made
sure we have our freedoms,"
Cornelius, who always wears a
flag pin on his shirt collar, said.
The Memorial Day event
, will begin around l p.m. each
day. Cornelius is also looking
for a volunteer or two to help
him set up and carry some of
the equipment he needs. He
will also be putting on a similar
event Sunday, July 4.
"I'm getting pretty old and
can use the help," Cornelius
said and grinned. "So can the
veterans."
Winners of the raffle will
be announced Tuesday, Dec. 7

Day. ~

the Village of Oak Creek. There
will be displays and posters,
including two for the two trips
offered as raffle prizes.
Among the other 58 prizes
are dinners to local restaurants,
golf at a number of courses in
Sedona and the Verde Valley,
stays at resorts and various
other gift certificates and
prizes. Tickets are $10 apiece
or three for $25. Cornelius will
sell tickets at the Memorial
Day event.
"This is the first time I've
done something on Memorial
Day, but it is a day to remember
our veterans, especially our
fallen veterans," Cornelius
said. "It's a sacred day to all
war veterans, remembering
their brethren who gave the
ultimate sacrifice for our
freedom."
Cornelius said too often the
disabled veterans get forgotten.
He wants to do what he can to
ensure someone remembers
them.
"When I was in the infamtry,
I'd see guys get shot and carrried
away. I often wondered what
happened to them," Cornelius

ASSISTANCE WITH GROOMING
Health limitations or depression may require at-home seniors to need help maintaining their
personal hygiene and appearance, and a Personal Care Attendant can assist. Bathing should be a
regular routine. Hair washing may be done in the home, or the Caregiver may take the senior to
the barber shop or salon for a regular appointment. Women may like to have makeup applied. The
Personal Care Attendant can make sure senior clients keep their fingernails and toenails filed. Also,
they will encourage twice-a-day tooth brushing and proper care of dentures. These procedures help
maintain proper health and promote a sense of dignity and self-worth!
Whether you need support in the home, hospital, a long-term care facility, or another residence,
ResCare HorheCare can help. Since 1975, we have provided service that helps individuals
maximize their independence and quality of life. We look forward to learning what we can do for
you or someone you love.
ES. We offer a OneTouch emergency pendant connected to 24/7 Telecare for an exceptional value
of $29.99 per month. No installation fee! Please contact our office for more information or to
schedule a FREE in-home health assessment by one of our Care Coordinators.

Presented By
At meeting May 11, the
Sedona City Council discussed
a resolution limiting future
extensions of the wastewater
collection system through
Wednesday, Dec. 31, 2014.
Two issues necessitated
this discussion. First of all,
commitments for sewer service
in areas having sewer mains
were about 1.63 million gallons
per day. These areas include all
those in the city that currently
have sewer availability and
have been connected, or will
be connected upon build-out
of the parcel, including the
recently constructed Chapel
area sewer mains.
The second factor was the
recent discovery that current
wastewater strengths seem to
be higher than assumed for
design of the, plant. At the
City Council meeting, Charles
Mosley, public works director,
noted that the capacity of the
plant is estimated to be around
1.6 mgd based upon the sewer
plant's ability to manage treated
wastewater flows. Because the
wastewater strength appears
to be higher than assumed in
the plant's design about 10
years ago, the plant treatment
capacity is estimated at 1.5
mgd rather the initial design
capacity of 2.0 mgd.
In light of this, the city
cannot state that it has plant
capacity to manage flows from
further new extensions of
the sewer system. It can only
state that it has capacity to
manage flows from any parcel
with sewer availability that is
currently connected or will be
connected upon building on
the property.
Some areas of the city have
not had city sewer mains
extended to them. Although the
City Council did not approve
the resolution limiting sewer
extensions, Arizona state regu-
lations do not allow city staff
to approve further extension
of the sewer main system until
the plant capacity issues are
resolved pr until the city makes
arrangements with Arizona
Department of Environmental
Quality to allow extensions
in spite of the city's current
level of commitments. This
was noted during the Council's
discussion of the issue.
There is no moratorium
regarding provision of sewer
service for parcels within
Sedona. The manner in which
the sewer service is provided
depends upon where the parcel
is located. Parcels in areas
having sewer mains adjacent
to the parcel may be able to
connect to the main upon
development. This is done by
constructing a sewer lateral,
which connects a building to a
sewer main.
Parcels that do not have
sewer mains adjacent to them
or are in areas not having sewer
availability may construct on-
site sewer systems, but the city
will not extend a new sewer
main adjacent to their property
until the capacity at the plant is
increased or arrangements with
ADEQ are approved.
Anyone having questions
regarding whether a sewer main
serves a parcel may contact the
city of'Sedona Public Works
Department at 204-7411.
