2 President’s Message MAY 2018
I want to notify you of the passing of board member, Dottie Pope. She was a strong force in moving Four Colonies forward in difficult decisions she was able to contribute to. She will be missed.
Thanks for attending the annual meeting. We were able to reseat 3 existing board members working on important projects. Welcome back Ann Schenke, Sara Hurley, Stefanie Weishaar. We also welcomed two new members: Dale Thomas and Amy Guion. They are already assigned to committees and ready to go.
I hope you were able to make it to the Annual Easter Egg hunt at Clubhouse 1 on March 31st. Darlene Lindsey did an amazing job of organizing a great party. She and her army filled and hid 300 eggs full of candy and money. It is a big undertaking and Darlene makes it look simple. Thanks, Darlene for all your hard work.
Also special thanks to Jim Lindsey, Shannon Gibson, and her children Sean and Conner Gibson, Jennifer Lindsey and Mike Gray. Additional help was provided by Sara Hurley, Marty Sprinkle, Dawn Harmon. A special visit by our favorite Easter Bunny aka David McKibben was appreciated. Thanks to those who took a chance on the weather and came out to make it another special event.
The next event will be a Community Garage Sale. The weekend of June 1, June 2, and June 3.
Thanks for your support so we can continue to host events for our homeowners.
Linda Khan-McKibben Four Colonies President —————————————————————————————————————————————
Board Member, Dottie Pope, passed away April 4, 2018. Dottie served on the Board from 2010 to 2013 and 2015 to 2018. Dottie chaired the Architectural Control Committee and the Paint Committee. We will miss her very much. Four Colonies was fortunate to have benefited from her leadership and experience.
DOTTIE POPE
Dorothy (Dottie) Pope passed away April 4, 2018, after a long battle with cancer. She was born Dorothy Khachadoorian, September 1934, in Albany, New York to full blooded Armenian parents. She attended Emma Willard School and went on to complete her Master’s Degree in Comparative Literature at Boston University.
Dottie lived in and around the Kansas City area for most of her life where her three sons were born. She was lucky enough to relocate to Australia where she had the opportunity to work as a TV commentator. After returning to the U.S. She resumed TV commentary for a station in Topeka. She worked in Kansas City for a government health insurance company and The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. She returned to school and earned a Masters Degree in Social Work, and worked for Kansas City Hospice.
One of Dottie’s passions was Art, and over the years, she attended classes at the Kansas City Art Institute and Johnson County Community college where she became an expert in clay sculpture.
She loved to love, loved and adored her family, companion Don and friends. She cared about the community and delighted in making art. She traveled the world with joy and curiosity. As a social worker she was always working for the underdog. She loved to cook, garden, read, fish, learn new skills, and develop her talents. Giving was more important than receiving. She cherished diversity, was a mentor and was mentored by many. She loved to work, play, love, and laugh.
She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.

Thank you for choosing Republic Waste for your yard waste recycling needs. We appreciate your business and look forward to a great year.
All items must be packaged in paper lawn waste bags or tied into 18’ x 36” bundles.
Route Service begins at 7:00 a.m. Please make sure all items are easily accessible from the street.
We only pickup natural yard waste including grass, leaves, tree limbs, flower or garden plants (without their pots), walnuts, apples, Christmas trees (6’ or less), etc. All materials collected are taken to a licensed compost facility. This recycling facility does not allow for ANY trash, landscape, or construction materials. If bags contain trash or foreign material they will have to be left at the curb. Any plastic inside your bag will be considered trash and not picked up. We do NOT collect animal waste. Please tie brush securely with rope or twine – not wire. Mark bundles of thorns for the driver’s safety. Christmas Trees are the only items that do not require bagging or bundling. We will accept Christmas trees up to 6’ in length, if larger please cut in half.
Maximum item weight is 50 pounds. Do not use plastic tape on paper bags since it is not biodegradable. We suggest that you bundle or use boxes for small brush, wood or items that would easily break a bag during removal. We ask you to not use cans for your waste.

FOUR SALES MARCH 23-APRIL 25 Per Heartland MLS, 4 four Colonies properties went under contract for sale during this period: A 3 bedroom 2.5 bath Chalet two-story with double garage, listed at $185,000, sold first day on the market ,as did a free-standing Garden View home 4 bedroom 2.5 bath Bristol plan side-to-side split level, listed at $800,000. A 2 bedroom 2.5 bath two-story with single detached garage, listed at $130,000 ,sold second day on the market. The fourth sale, a 2 bedroom plus den end unit ranch with basement and single detached garage, listed at $145,000, sold in 16 days. Also, the sale of a 2 bedroom 2.5 bath Garden Villa ranch reported in the April Clarion fell through, but sold again quickly. It was listed at $179,000. NO INVENTORY That's correct, not one single Four Colonies property is listed for sale in Heartland MLS, as the Clarion goes to press! HAVE YOUR HOUSING NEEDS CHANGED? Contemplating selling? Now may be the perfect time. Prices are up, and Four Colonies properties, as you can see, are selling very, very quickly. Buyers are waiting! Real estate agents are calling me asking when I will be listing this or that floor plan or a property in such and such a price range. Needless to say, it will be my pleasure to market and sell your Four Colonies home and locate and negotiate to purchase the new home of your dreams. Have your needs or wants changed? Would you like something smaller or larger, or bedroom (s) on the main level, laundry on the main level? Call me for a free market analysis of your home's value or an update of Four Colonies properties that come on the market before the June issue of the Clarion.
Have a Happy and Safe Memorial Day Weekend!

Service Electric Company offers top efficiency furnaces and air conditioner systems with the best warranties in
the industry at the best installed prices. How do we do it? Our low overhead cost means lower cost to you. Do
you just need a repair on your existing system? I have over 39 years experience in HVAC service, repairs, and
new installations and my service work generally is about half the cost of our competitors. Ask for a free
estimate. Need a second opinion? I hear about this all the time. A well respected and well known HVAC service
company will tell you, “ Your system is not repairable and you need a new air conditioner or furnace.” Often
times it turns out that all you need is a $20.00 part. I’ll give you the real reason that you’re A/C or furnace isn’t
working.

Faucets & Toilets & Sump Pumps
