Thomas Gorham

Thomas (Tommy) Alfred Gorham passed away April 25, 2012 at his home, surrounded by his family. Tommy is survived by his loving

wife Judy, daughters Pat and Debbie, son James, fi ve grandchildren, fi ve great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild. He is preceded in death

Th omas ‘Tommy’ Alfred Gorhamby his son Jerrell. Tommy and Judy adored and cared for their children and were adored and cared for in turn. Tommy was the sixth of the 11 children of Pat and Mollie Gorham. He is preceded in death by sisters Mary McKee and Barbara West, brothers Patrick (Patsy), Phillip (Pinky), George (Pete)

and James (Jimmy). He is survived by sisters Loretta Haggberg and Patricia Brown; brothers John (Jackie) and Daniel (Danny) Gorham and many, many nieces and nephews. Tommy spent his younger years caring for and riding his horses. After high school, Tommy spent two years in the US Army after which he went to work for Magma Copper, retiring in 1985. He soon went to work for Pinal County in Facilities Maintenance where he spent 10 years and once again retired. In his spare time, Tommy was always either a horseman or a race car driver. He wrangled cattle, maintained fences and

windmills for friends and ranchers Billy Martin - JF, Manny Ruiz - 4R, and Milford Taylor - TU; then during racing season he worked on and drove his jalopy - # 18, at the Wheat Fields race track. He mentored his nephew Michael McKee on the racing circuit, starting him out with box cars and graduating to stock cars. Tommy also enjoyed a time when he played softball and bowled with the Top Hat team. THAT was a sight to behold! When Tommy became a family man he hung up his spurs and his driving gloves and his family was his priority. For the last few years of his full life Tommy was the “ne ighborhood watch”

from his front yard bench with his can of Bud (shh) and his Camel cigarettes; and an armchair TV fan of NASCAR and Rodeo. We are so happy that Tommy was able to celebrate Arizona First Families at this year’s Apache Leap Days Parade on the “covered wagon”. Rosary and Mass of Christian Burial was held at St Francis Church on Tuesday May 1, 2012 with interment following in the Gorham Plot at Fairview Cemetery, Superior. You will be missed,

Tommy. An Online Guestbook can be signed at www.superiorfuneral.com.

Editor, Superior Sun: Our town leaders, Mayor and Council Members, you better wake up about major issues that our community are facing. I know a majority of the Town Council has ties to Resolution Copper Company, but, you need to address vital issues that this company will be causing. I have in the past, addressed the water issues, even though the former Mayor did get Arizona Water Company to speak about the future water supply availability; but at what cost? Arizona Water never mentioned the price we will be paying for water. They guarantee water, but, is the water going to be affordable? Resolution Copper is willing to spend money to lock up water supplies for the future; also, they own water wells in the same area that Superior draws its supply. By the way, did any of our elected officials protest the Arizona Water rate increase on the behalf of the Town? The second issue: Did you know that Resolution Copper is buying up land along Highway 60, near Gonzales Pass, for their future tailings (mine waste). Remember it took BHP 19 years to clean up the contamination due to a tailing spill? But, more so, our community has been exposed to the tailing mine waste, especially the dust from the tailings, for over 60-plus years. Resolution Copper is bragging about the huge production of copper. They did not mention the huge contamination waste dump. Resolution Copper states that the ore body is as large as Picket Post Mountain. So will be the mine waste, once the

copper is extracted. It is going to be a nice way to greet our travelers on Highway 60, with a huge tailing pile at the foot of the Tonto National Forest. This leads to another question about what Resolution Copper is doing, behind the scenes. Our State officials seem to think this is ok. Why? Because they are planning to bypass Superior, with the expansion and realignment of Highway 60. The proposal is to bypass the Superior and Miami-Globe area. The Miami and Globe people are opposed to this plan; but where is Superior? All the mines are along Highway 60, and are pushing for this bypass to keep the highway off their ore bodies; especially, Resolution Copper. I asked the former Mayor and he said R.O.C. would support the town on the position it took on Highway 60. I reminded the former Mayor that he was not in office any more. To the new Mayor and Council: What is your position? There is indication that the ore body is huge and goes under Highway 60. Mayor and Council, wake up before it is too late. Ask Resolution Copper to lay out their plan of operations. Resolution Copper keeps making excuses that they cannot move on the planning of the mine without the land exchange being completed. They have a plan: they just will not tell you. A company of this size, after spending millions and millions of dollars , after all these years, does have a plan, as they acquire water

and lands for their operation. You need to ask the tough questions and demand answers. Mayor, you said you would ask questions, but, I have not heard one question, other than you saying we need the mine operation. Has any one of you, Mayor or Council Members, been working on the lands that the Town lost with the new bill that was passed in the U.S. House of Representatives and which is now in the Senate? Did you forget? Just like the Council, forgetting to give the town employees their raises as promised. Get those high-price Town Attorneys to work on it. As I mentioned, a majority of you in the Town Council have conflicts of interest with Resolution Copper, because of family members working for or for companies associated with R.C.C., and that includes you, Mayor. Let us not repeat the past, where Magma Copper controlled the Town Government and School Board. To the residents, start calling your Mayor and Council Members and demand them to ask the tough questions, concerning our water supplies and quality, our air quality, the environmental impacts of mine waste and the Highway 60 bypass. By the way, I have not heard any answers to my questions concerning Town operations. I appreciate all the people of Superior and Resolution Copper employees who have supplied me with vital information concerning our town in exposing the truth. Mayor and Resolution Copper, in your own words:

By Rev. Dennis Van GorpFamily Life Christian Center John 11:9,10 “A man who walks by day will not stumble, for he sees by this world’s light. It is when he walks by night that he stumbles, for he has no light.” From Psalm 119:105 we read, “Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

The Bible refers to those who do not know the Lord as a people who live in darkness. The gospel is the light that shines into that darkness allowing us to correctly follow what God has planned for us to do. The word, ‘lamp,’ in Psalm 119, does not refer to a modern day portable mega lantern that is

capable of lighting up the road for a mile in front of us. It is a small, hand held oil lamp that only cuts the darkness enough to see the next step or two. Walking the road then becomes a step of faith, where we trust that the path ahead is safe to travel. It is not normal for God to show us our entire life’s pathway. He asks

Pastor’s Cornerus to follow, as He leads us a step at a time. If we knew the entire route, we would naturally rely on our own ideas and strengths, rather than on His infinite wisdom and loving guidance. On our own, we look to astrologers, horoscopes and fortune tellers to decipher the future for

us. In the Scriptures, God warns about those who seek opinions, guidance and knowledge that are not from Him, they have chosen a very dangerous path in life. Their outcome and destiny are not what is desired. Instead, He gives us His Word, easy to read and easy to understand; full

of truth, love, direction and instruction. The knowledge we find there will keep us safe on our journey through this life and into the next one. Read it, believe it and practice it. The Lord will honor you with blessing and success. Let the light of God’s Holy Word shine in and through your life.

FLORENCE – The Pinal County Public Health District is holding its monthly Diabetes Education classes in May. This month’s classes will deal with depression and stress issues diabetics may come across in their battle

with the disease. Stress related to diabetes can affect blood glucose levels when a diabetic fails to take good care of themselves by watching what they eat. Stress hormones can also contribute to a rise in blood

glucose levels. Studies have shown that female diabetics are more likely to suffer from depression while fighting the disease. Diabetes Education Program Coordinator

May’s Diabetes education class covers depression and stress issues for diabetics

Editor, Superior Sun: OK, so, here is my letter to the Editor: A few months ago, I moved back to Superior after being gone for oh so long. Everyday, I wake is a brand new day, handed to me by my creator … The majestic power of the mountains, sharply striking the eye with it’s beauty and stealing your next breath, as if it were for the very first time. Taking walks up to the leap to look down, reminiscing of days long and gone away ... My beloved neighbors and their noteworthy influence on my life: serene are the memories, so awakening are my senses, I share with you today: Where did all the butterflies go? Have you ever had one of those days where your mind just seemed to wander and, before you knew it, you were somewhere else? This recently happened to me, bringing with it a vision of pure emotion and sensation, striking colors of blue, yellow, orange, red and green, flowing randomly through my mind, evolving into light silhouettes of beautiful butterflies! Slowly remembering how they’d flutter into groups of three. There were none so amazing as the ones from the days of my youth, across the street, in the garden of my elderly and much adored neighbors: the Vogels. The Vogels had a charming red brick house and a fragrant, and aesthetic, garden in their front and back yards, that could easily be sighted from the street. Everyone who passed heir home would slow down to take a deep breath, for it would be perfumed by the barrage of flowers, and its beauty would release your mind and transform into wonderment, until you left eye’s view of their yard. Mrs. Vogel was very much like the garden where she exerted much labor. Her inner beauty shone out of her like the sun,

Letter to the Editor: Remembering Superiorapproaching the horizon at the beginning of each day. Arizona is known for the great beauty of its sunset, but, rarely spoken of are its sunrises. The sun rises over the mountains, so forcefully, its piercing rays of sunlight scorch your eyes and brings with it the heat that evolves into a new and bright day: a day with new blooms, foliage, and a fresh flutter of bursting color to pull you in and take you away. Away … away, from a life that sometimes seemed so complicated, and simplified to a calmness and serenity through the beauty of color. A gift offering pleasure to the eye. God’s love shining through the labor of my new neighbors, who will reside in my heart … forever .. the Vogels. Mrs. Vogel was bitten by a something of the earth bug, which rendered her ill and she, eventually, was called to God’s side. Mr. Vogel followed, not long after; and, with them, their garden was no longer, and the butterflies far gone. In my heart, I harbor the desire to create the garden once sowed by the Vogels. Their labor of lover in God’s creations cannot be

so easily sown. I don’t know if I have been called upon to create the beauty that attracted their flutter; but, I pray., every day, to find the flurry of fluttering butterflies .. in my flowers. In fond memory of the Vogels ... It’s now the hands of my mother that have sown the beauty of flowers, and comfort of her love, that I wake to .. under the scenic mountains, residing below; and the memories live on. Memories and the loss of my cousin and friend, drive me to stay and replay our lives in the 70’s past, and tribute to the man and a time. Let’s put on the rewind: I can still hear the sound of the crowd cheering and slowly coming into view, as the drum and piano note strike simultaneously with the dribble of the ball, the song ‘Benny and the Jets’. Zeroing in on the player, ball in hand, dribbling and driving his way through the opposing team. Black wavy hair, skin dark and big brown eyes, with the hint of a black mustache and goatee – all 5’11” of him – he scores again, to the cheering of the crowd in the song,

at the same time seeing the crowd in the stands cheering him on as he is lining up another layup to victory! Game over: exultant, Benny wearing black wife beater, accompanied by a burgundy button down left open, showing his shiny silver St. Christopher medal, and black dress pants stepping up his signature strut down the dark sidewalk of town, smoking solo in celebration of his conquest. Benny entering the Los Reyes Club as ‘Benny & the Jets’ continues to play. He is adorned with high-fives by all his compadres, and hugged by todas los chicas as he struts his way down the hallway to the dance. As the song concludes, Benny enters the dance and someone shouts out, “Hora le Benny & the Jets!” A row of polished chrome cars surged by splashes of soapy water; rinsed and blow-dried, shining and sparkling their way to the end of the line. Pulling over, side by side, each getting out of their cars, with shammy on shoulder, whipping it out and sliding it onto bumper, hood and

trunk completely dry, with strides of the shammy soaking up each drop of water, preventing all streaking. One by one, the line of newly washed and waxed low-rider cars crank on, a deep rev of their engines slowly lifts and hops hydraulics simultaneously shaking the last of the water drops from the weekly wash. As the last car commences, the first car leads the parade as each car follows. It’s dusk. The beginning of darkness or the dim part of twilight. The subdued light, just after sunset. Penetrating through the serenity of silence enters the echo of engines, accompanied by sounds of hydraulics announcing their arrival onto the main street of town. The square headlights of a black 1977 Monte Carlo, at the head of the lineup of low-rider cars, emerging one by one, each with their own brilliance of color, highly polished chrome, rolling designer rims with clean white walls and some spinners. The convoy of recently washed and waxed cruisers

halt at the light facing North, on the intersection .. stay stopped, still yet, for one last parade to honor and to mourn … It was in his honor that there was one last cruise of low-rider cars familia, 1974 Basketball Championship fellow players, 1975 Baseball Championship fellow players, coaches and his friends, all to play their respects for my primo. In my heart, he stays my forever friend, Benny Alonzo. Inspiring are the people of Superior; touching are the moments and sharing the moments of grief that brings us closer together as friends and as a community. I hold dear this town that I am from, and many are the people past and present. In God’s name, we serve each other. Once again, I am a part of the town where my heart belongs. Also, a working part, offering services that are healthy and soothing for all of the town’s residents; giving back, in a peaceful manner, as being here gives back to me. Thoughtfully, /s/ Kathleen (Sobey) Akers

By Mila Lira After a rash of graffiti hit the streets of Superior, town officials contacted the Pinal County Graffiti Task Force to help clean up the sprayed on mess. The tagging occurred at Town Hall, the Little League Field, the Football

Field and several private businesses. Last Wednesday the graffiti task force, armed with fresh paint, paint brushes and inmate labor, took care of the majority of the tagging that had been placed on both public and private property. The

task force is a joint project sponsored by the Pinal County Attorney’s Office and the Pinal County Sheriff’s office. The County Attorney’s office provides the paint while the sheriff’s office provides inmate labor, supervision, work truck and other

supplies. Warren Edwards the Graffiti Task Force manager explained that he carries white, tan and grey paint in the task force truck. At times they can match the paint of

the structure but if they can’t property owners can at least have the graffiti covered up and then they can color match as needed. A property owner must sign that permission is granted for the graffiti to be covered. Pinal County residents who have had their property tagged or have

seen graffiti on public places can call the Pinal County Graffiti Hotline at 520-866-5145 and leave a message for Edwards. Edwards explained that they are usually able to respond within a week to requests left on the hotline. There is no cost to the property owner to have the graffiti covered.

On Saturday, May 12, the Town of Superior along with many community partners will host the first Fairview Cemetery Cleanup. This event, which organizers are hoping will become an annual event, will allow everyone to come together as a community to help clean the gravesites of their families and friends as a well as the cemetery grounds. The community work day will begin at 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Town of Superior will be providing lunch, and drinks for those volunteering at the cemetery. Those planning on participating should bring weed eaters, blowers, and yard tools such as pruners, saws, rakes and shovels if they have them. There will be a limited amount of tools available during the work day. It is also recommended that participants wear long pants, long sleeve shirts, sturdy shoes, gloves and sunscreen. With Mother’s Day, Memorial Day and Father’s Day coming soon, this is a great way to honor those laid to rest in our cemetery and clean up our community. For additional questions, please contact Town Hall at 520-689-5752.

PCSO to honor fallen at Peace Officer’s Memorial Each year between 140 and 160 Peace Officers are killed serving in the line of duty in the Untied States and their families are left to pick up the pieces. Since 1962, our Nation has celebrated the lives of these fine men and women, each year, during National Police Week. During the month of May, across the nation, state and local governments recognize the sacrifices these men and women have made during their

annual Peace Officer Memorial Services. On May 10, 2012, Sheriff Paul Babeu and the entire Pinal County Sheriff’s Office staff invites all law enforcement officers, family and friends, members of the community and media to attend a memorial service that will begin at 7 p.m. Attendees are asked to arrive by 6:30 p.m. to allow for an on-time start. The service will take place at the Peace Officer’s

Memorial outside the Sheriff’s Office located at 971 N Jason Lopez Circle, Florence, AZ 85132. Sheriff Paul Babeu stated, “It is important to celebrate the lives of all fallen officers, Heroes, in our communities and pay tribute to their service and sacrifice. These events provide an opportunity

for law enforcement and the community to express our heartfelt appreciation to the officers who have sacrificed themselves for us and to honor them, their families, friends and colleagues. I invite each of you to join us in remembering and recognizing our Heroes during this year’s service.”

Boyce Thompson Arboretum returns to the summer schedule May 1; for the next four months daily hours are 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. Guided weekend nature walks are included with $9 daily admission ($4.50 ages 5-12), and Saturday May 5 is the

season debut Dragonfly Walk. Dragonflies are fascinating creatures, with a rich heritage of folklore and fables that vary greatly from culture to culture. European cultures tend to see dragonflies as dangerous or even deadly;

Arboretum features the ‘Dragonfly Whisperer’ May 5Asian and Native American cultures see them as signs of good luck and longevity. The truth about dragonflies is far more interesting than any fable: they have six legs, but can’t walk; they have incredible vision, but are deaf; they outlasted the dinosaurs and are still going strong today. In addition, recent discoveries by Mesa resident Prof. James Walker reveal dragonflies bathe in flight by plunging

into the water, sometimes as many as six times in a row. How do they dry off after such a bath? Easy, they spin head over heels at 1,000 rpm while still in flight! Saturday, May 5, you’ll see a variety of ‘Odonates’ during the season debut Dragonfly Walk at Boyce Thompson Arboretum starting at 8:30 a.m.; following the guided tour Prof. Walker (‘The Dragonfly Whisperer’)

Jim Walker, Dragon Whisperer

will present a lively lecture, slideshow about dragonflies, complete with slow-motion videos of dragonflies bathing and ‘spin-drying.’ He’ll even share tips on how to coax a dragonfly to perch on your finger.

By Betsy Quinn The April 18 Superior School Board meeting featured a comprehensive presentation on the Energy Efficiency Project at Superior High and JFK Elementary schools that is nearing completion. The presentation was given by Joe Papa of AMERESCO. Board member Cyndi Benson called the presentation “a grand finale” to showcase the item-by- item the benefits to SUSD. The benefits include:• A Better Learning Environment• Lower Utility Costs• Financial Stability (refinancing of existing Bond debt)• Lower Capital Funding Requirements• Reduced Maintenance Budget• Improved Infrastructure• Opportunity for Policy Changes• Better Environmental

Stewardship Papa began by telling the Board that this type of project has shown time and time again that student test scores will go up by offering a better learning environment in the classroom. The JFK School lighting and ventilation systems received a complete overhaul. The lighting in the school is now electronically automatically controlled and classrooms have skylights that allow natural outside lighting and sunshine into the classrooms. Project Manager Russell Kennedy told the Board that when the project began it was discovered that 14 of the high efficiency air handling units located above ceiling panels were out and hardly anyone knew the units were there nor were the units being maintained. The project included overhauling, cleaning, and tying the

Superior School Board spotlights solar Air Handling Units into the new electronic master controls. The maintenance staff is now able to monitor and maintain the units. The result is that the Air Handling Units are now much more efficient and the air quality is greatly improved. The ceiling of the JFK School Multi-Purpose Room was insulated at the top. This will provide efficient heating, lighting and noise reduction. In addition to the new lighting for the Superior Memorial Football Field, the Stadium will have a new LED lighting system for the scoreboard and the system has a wireless universal control board that can also run the scoreboard in the gym. A new speaker system will also be in place in time for 2012 Graduation. The schools also have a new full color Marquee Board to display information and events. In the School Bus Barn, a mobile Tire Saver Unit will allow maintenance staff to use nitrogen instead of compressed air in the school bus tires. This will

result in longer tire life and more efficient operation of the school buses. Papa told the Board that there is a 15 year warranty on all the new components that it is user friendly in the event service is needed. During the course of the project AMERESCO assisted in helping refinance the existing school bond debt, resulting in a savings of $128,000 to the taxpayers of Superior. The SUSD will have the option to purchase execute a Power purchase agreement through the risk pool in order to obtain future power and utilities at lower rates. “Before this project,” Papa said, “You were reacting to maintenance costs. Now with the capital improvements you will be spending less, enjoy greater financial stability with the Bond refinance, and experience stable utility costs with substantial savings over the next 15 to 20 years.” Papa says the Board will also have the option to adopt carbon neutrality guidelines and be proactive about sustainability and

environmentally friendly energy use. That is something that will be passed along to the kids and their families as well. He added that most school district wish they could do that and told the Board. “You are out in front,” he said. Papa said that the he could not say enough about SUSD Board, the Town of Superior and the JFK/Superior High School staff who helped make this project possible.Papa added that this project is a model for other schools. The Board told Papa that they are very grateful and thanked AMERESCO for all the extra perks that came with the project. The project originally came about after the School Board was faced with the dilemma on of replacing the lighting on the football field two years ago. high winds took down a set of lights at the Football field. The School Board was informed by their insurance carrier that not only could the downed lights not be repaired, but that the lighting for the

entire field was in danger of falling. The insurance carrier required the District to take down all of the lights at the field a a cost of $15,000, which was paid by the Arizona School Faculty Board and the insurance carrier. Even worse there was no solution or funding to replace the lighting and the district was forced to endure a full year with no lighting on the football field. Going green turned out to be the answer. The Energy Efficiency grant from AMERSCO provided all new energy efficient lighting, new marquee board, and a new scoreboard. Even better the grant covered the full cost of the solar powered and energy efficient lighting. The district will save 20 percent on utility bills, money which will be put back into the M&O budget. The schools now have more lighting at a lower cost overall to the district. For further reading about Arizona schools going green with solar lighting check out http://tinyurl.com/cxvzmg7.

By Betsy Quinn The Superior Town Council recently voted in favor of implementing a Corrective Action Plan in regarding the recent Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) inspection of the Superior Solid Waste Transfer Station. Following a March 1,2012 ADEQ inspection of the Solid Waste Transfer Station operated by Orion Recycling, 14 points were identified by ADEQ that must be addressed in order to continue operations at the site. The issues cite record keeping, disposal of batteries and solid waste and used oil management. The Town is now facing possible ADEQ sanctions and fines and the recommendation is to close the Transfer station. The Certificate of Insurance for the operator of the Station, Orion Recycling, was

Superior Council adopts corrective plan to clean up transfer station; site remains closed for now

canceled on February 26, 2012. In February of 2012 Superior Town Council voted against renewing the contract with Larry Jochai of Orion Recycling, but allowed Orion to continue operating month to month basis. The contract had expired in the summer of 2011 and was not renewed due to the conditions at the facility and the fact that the Certificate of Insurance had been canceled. Council had previously been working with Jochai, who indicated he was working on correcting the problems. In other business during the meeting, Interim Town Clerk Rita Wentzel reported that outstanding progress has been made on reducing the bills owed by the Town. In December, the Town of Superior was $300,000 in arrears. Today that amount has been reduced to less than $84,297. Wentzel reported that the lower Town revenues over the summer months will present new challenges if progress on the shortfall is to continue. Wentzel advised that the Town payroll is currently $40,00 every two weeks currently and that the town is now within 30 days of being current on outstanding bills. Council was informed that Town vehicles are in need of maintenance including the Loader, Bucket Truck and Street Sweeper. Wentzel says the Town is almost keeping up, but lower summer revenues and upcoming spending must be considered carefully to continue to make progress on Town finances. Wentzel reported that Town staff is cutting back expenses and waiting on purchases. Wentzel additionally reported that 13 applications were received for the open job posting at the Senior Center. Five candidates will be interviewed and

the position should be filled by Wednesday, April 25. The posted Volunteer Community Recreation position received no applications and remains posted through April 27. During Council Comments, Mayor Jayme Valenzuela stated that he believes the Council is doing things the way they should be done and noted that the Town staff is working very hard during a difficult situation, commenting “keep up the good work” to the staff. Valenzuela commended the contributions of the staff and added that the staff is wearing many hats during tough times, and offered encouraging words saying ‘we’re gonna get there.’ Valenzuela noted that some of the biggest issues facing the town sell newspapers and said he had addressed the Chamber of Commerce earlier in the week concerning the cost of the recall election and other issues. Valenzuela stated that the total cost of the election was about $3,000 with $2,200 spent on the election and $800 to the County Recorder. Valenzuela was setting the record straight in response to a recent Letter to the Editor published in The Superior Sun in which a local resident claimed the cost was over $8,000 and questioned the Town’s hiring process. Valenzuela added that the Town is going through appropriate hiring processes taking anywhere from 13 to 20 applications for posted Town positions and all the full time positions posted had been filled. The Mayor encouraged anyone who does not know the Town hiring processes to talk with Wentzel at Town Hall. Valenzuela says Wentzel is available to the public on a day to day basis for anyone with questions or wishing to find out more about the hiring process.
