| 7617 | Hubert W. Vogelmann, a Vermont biologist whose compelling documentation of the effects of acid rain in the Green Mountains died early Friday at Respite House in Williston. Wife: Marie A. (Folk). --------- JERICHO - Hubert W. "Hub" Vogelmann, 84, of Jericho, passed away peacefully on Oct. 11, 2013, in the Vermont Respite House in Williston, after a decline stemming from congestive heart failure. Hub was born Nov. 13, 1928, in Buffalo, N.Y., to Carl and Martha Vogelmann. At 17, he graduated early from high school and showed his adventurous spirit by sailing on a post-W.W.II Victory ship though the minefields in the Baltic Sea to deliver cattle to war-torn Poland, a program that is known today as the Heifer Project. Hub received a B.S. from Heidelberg College in 1950, then a M.S. (1951) and Ph.D. (1955) from the University of Michigan. He moved to Vermont in 1955 to begin his 36-year tenure as a professor at the University of Vermont, serving 16 years as Chair of the Botany Department. Always dedicated to the cause of education, Hub inspired scores of students and was delighted by the frequent remark, "I took your course!" His roles as educator and conservationist extended well beyond the university campus. He founded the Field Naturalist program, which is unique in its integration of science, fieldwork, critical thinking and public communications to produce leaders in environmental policy, land stewardship, research, conservation and education. His research led him on many adventures that included collecting medicinal plants in the upper Amazon Basin, conducting research on cloud rain forests in Mexico, and hitchhiking on planes in the Arctic to study tundra. Hub is well known for his research on Camels Hump that brought national attention to the issue of acid rain and contributed to air-quality legislation. In 2000, he was honored by the dedication of the Hub Vogelmann Research Natural Area at Camels Hump State Park. Hub also led conservation efforts to preserve Vermont's ridgelines and mountaintops, contributing to the creation of Vermont's Act 250, a landmark law that has preserved Vermont's scenic quality. Hub co-founded the Vermont chapter of The Nature Conservancy, which has preserved over 183,000 acres of native habitats in Vermont, many of which where identified through his research in Vermont and the region. One of these areas was Shelburne Pond, which remained at the top of Hub's list of favorite natural areas with its diverse communities, wetlands and limestone cliffs. He served on numerous environmental boards, both state and national, including The Conservation Fund, The Nature Conservancy, Shelburne Farms, Vermont Natural Resources Council, and the Governor's Advisory Board under Governor Howard Dean. Hub was inducted as a Fellow of Vermont Academy of Arts and Sciences (1987), and he received numerous other awards such as: the prestigious Environmental Merit Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (1983); was named Vermonter of the Year by the Sunday Rutland Herald and the Sunday Times Argus (1985); received an honorary degree from the University of Vermont (2006); a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Center for Research on Vermont (2009); and the Vermont Natural Resources Council's Peter Zilliacus Award (2010) for environmental citizenship. Throughout his life, Hub loved to fish, garden, and farm, and he was a beekeeper for 73 years. He was a consummate observer of the natural world and, in his retirement years, he shared his life and observations of nature in essays that were published in his 2011 book, "On Schillhammer Road: the life of a botanist." Hub is survived by his brother, Stewart Vogelmann; sons, Tom and wife, Mary Neighbours, Jim and wife, Ann, and Andy; grandchildren, Scott Vogelmann, Connie Vogelmann, and Alice Hall and husband, Tom; and his dear companion, Mary Jane Dickerson. He lived with Marie Folk Vogelmann, his wife of 49 years, in a farmhouse on Schillhammer Road in Jericho, until her untimely passing in 1999. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, Oct. 19, 2013, at 1 p.m. in the Ira Allen Chapel on the University of Vermont campus with a reception following in the Billings Center.

| 7625 | I arrived on this earth October 3, 1950 and today, January 19, 2017, my worldly journey has come to an end. I have been blessed in so many ways throughout my lifetime. Blessed with a family of two beautiful, sincere, loving children. My heart, Andrea (Giambattista) Stevens; and my strength, Serofino Agostino Giambattista. A son-in-law that I could not ask more from, Gordon Stevens. My loving grandson, Blake Serafino Stevens; loving parents, Serofino 'Sam' and Martha (Marinucci) Giambattista; and brother, Anthony (Kathy) Giambattista. Dearest in-laws, Marie (late Louis) Filicetti; Gloria (Chris) Stanz, Gilda Bonnevie, late Marcia (Stephen) Urbaniak; uncle and aunt, Robert (Elaine) Marinucci; nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins and many wonderful, longtime and new friends; as well as my best bud, Travis. Lastly, but most importantly, my wife, Patricia (Filicetti) Giambattista. A woman with a heart like gold and as big as this universe, a woman who thinks of everyone else before herself. A woman who became a caregiver to me after my diagnoses, who epitomizes the very word caregiver. If not for my wonderful Patricia, my worldly journey would not have lasted this long. Where I worked or what I did for a living is not important. What is important is who I was, how I walked through this worldly life. Believe me, I made many mistakes, but I tried to learn from them all, hopefully I did. I loved with all of my being, I adored loyalty and the truth. I loved without conditions, the only way to true love. I also learned that love will die without respect as it's companion. You need both for a loving relationship of any and all kinds. For me, this was my life's most important lesson, love plus respect, without conditions equals a beautiful lifetime with inner peace. I leave you with this, "My lung cancer was a true blessing for me. Without it, I would not have the relationship I have with my God, and I would have not found the peace, happiness and contentment that I have. These last 68 months since my diagnoses have been the best times of my life". I also want you all to know that we will see each other again, I look forward to it, in a much better place, where there is no sorrow, no pain, no hurt, only wholeness. Where all are so happy and healthy. Please follow and live in HIS word, accept Jesus, give your heart and soul to HIM. As I embrace my Lord I wait for you all patiently with a smile. Remember always, God's Got This. See you in the New Jerusalem.... 1 Corinthians 2:7-9. Family and friends are invited to a Celebration of Sam's life on Saturday, February 18th at 11 AM at Creekside Assembly of God Church, 2625 Tonawanda Creek Road, Amherst, NY, with Pastor Charles Pezzino officiating.

| 7628 | I ran across this today in the History of Clarence. ALBERT ZURBRICK was born on August 17, 1859 in the Town of Cheektowaga. IN 1874, his father Phillipp Zurbrick, erected the first flour mill in Cheektowaga and it was while working with his father that Albert learned all the details of milling. On May 18, 1892 he married Maltilda Sommer of Cheektowaga. They had five children, Anges M., Ella D., Ansley A., Emily H., and Isabel (Outlaw) Zurbrick. In 1900, Mr. Zuerbrick moved to Clarence Center and built a mill of his own where he not only dealt in grain and flour but did custom grinding for this section of the county. In 1920, he sold his mill to John Ebersole. Cheektowaga is the first suburb east of Buffalo, Erie Co. NY Cheektowaga is pronounced Chicktowaga by the natives. The old Ebersole mill as we knew it was active when we moved to Clarence Center 44 years ago and wen through some changes including a restaurant then was torn down perhaps 10 years ago for a housing development.

The Niagara river took a ton of at least two lives yesterday when Harold Jagow, 17, and his brother, Benjamin Jagow, 18, both of Jagow road, town of Wheatfield, were drowned while swimming at Sandy Beach, on Grand Island in the upper river. Reports that another swimmer of the group at the beach was missing were not confirmed. The body of the younger brother was recovered about 9 last night, some 400 feet out in the river from the point where he had been swimming and search is being today continued for the second body. Accompanied by three cousins, the two youths went to the beach about 3 p. m. yesterday. and shortly after they had entered the water became separated from the others. With a crowd of some 50 or 60 persons at the small beach, they were not seen by their cousins again, the others assuming that the pair was somewhere in the crowd, which was agitated by wind and rain, which descended at intervals. Finally, about 6 p. m.. their attempts to become reunited with the pair disclosing that they were not in the crowd the cousins raised an alarm and the customs border patrol was notified. One woman in the crowd revealed that she had seen one of the boys go down in the deep water a short distance from the shore but had assumed at the time that he was merely diving. Meanwhile rumor spread that three other swimmers were missing but two of these were later discovered inland under a tree where they had protected themselves from the storm. Whether a third person was actually missing could not be determined. Neither of the brothers could swim a stroke, members of the family said today.
