Sheriff Pohlmann guest speaker at Leadership St. Bernard

A Stronger, More Reliable Grid Coming to St. Bernard Parish

SBVFC Recognized at the State Capitol

St. Bernard Sheriff James Pohlmann was among several guest speakers who attended a Leadership St. Bernard class titled “Par-ish Perspectives” held June 4 at the Maumus Center in Arabi.

Other guest speakers included: St. Bernard District Attorney Perry Nicosia, St. Bernard Fire Chief Thomas Stone and St. Ber-nard Parish Hospital Chief Executive Officer Kim Keene.

Leadership St. Bernard, now in its sixth year, is a program de-signed to educate and engage citizens in identifying needs, re-sources, and opportunities for St. Bernard Parish as a way to mo-tivate and increase the awareness of potential leaders.

Throughout the year, the course covers a wide array of topics including regional perspectives, quality of life issues, culture and tourism, diversity, education, industry, economic and community development and governmental affairs.

Entergy Louisiana crews soon will be working in St. Bernard Parish to help improve the area’s electrical grid reliability.

The $5 million project centers on installing new utility poles and a newly constructed feeder line along Judge Perez Drive between Munster Drive and the Highway 46 extension. “It’s important to work with all our business partners to continue striving to not only enhance our quality of life but improve overall safety for the res-idents of St. Bernard Parish,” said Parish President Guy Mcinn-is. “We appreciate Entergy’s commitment to improving services for our residents.” The grid-hardening efforts will improve overall electrical reliability in the Violet, Poydras, Toca, Kenilworth, Verret, Reggio, Woodlake, Delacroix, Florissant, Hopedale, Yscloskey and Shell Beach areas.

“This work is just one step in Entergy Louisiana’s long-term grid modernization efforts that will offer new technologies to improve customer experience and meet customers’ evolving needs,” said Gary Bazile, senior manager, metro customer service. “This is as much an investment in our grid as it is in our community. We want to ensure that we are doing all we can to keep the power running in homes and businesses in the area.”

The upgrades are expected to take approximately six months, beginning in June, with an estimated completion time of Novem-ber pending no unforeseen issues.

The St. Bernard Volunteers for Family and Community, Inc. (SB-VFC) were recognized at the State Capitol by the Louisiana House of Representatives on St. Bernard Day for their dedicated service and contributions to various deserving St. Bernard organizations.

Two Years StrongerYesterday marked the two year anniversary of the Congressional

Baseball Game practice shooting. As I look back on that day, I still have a lot of emotions, but I have a lot of special feelings for the friends, the heroes, the miracles, and all of you who prayed, who just said, ‘Even if we don’t know this guy, we’re praying for him and we want him to get better.’ And I am better; I keep getting better every day.

Making Progress on a Long-Term Reauthorization of NFIPThis week, the House Financial Services Committee unanimously

voted to advance the National Flood Insurance Program Reautho-rization Act of 2019 out of committee. After 12 short-term exten-sions, many of which passed mere hours or days before the pro-gram would have lapsed, it is long past time for Congress to pass a long-term reauthorization of the National Flood Insurance Program. Families and businesses across the country that rely on NFIP de-serve this stability.

The bill that passed unanimously by the Financial Services Com-mittee achieves some very important reforms. It prioritizes mitiga-tion and improves the mapping process. It includes common sense affordability measures like allowing monthly payments and protect-ing people’s rates if they choose to go to a private plan but want to come back to NFIP at a later date. It eliminates costly surcharges for policyholders. It doesn’t include any rate or fee hikes on policy-holders. And importantly, it reauthorizes the program for five years.

The fact that Republicans and Democrats in the House have been able to come together in a bipartisan fashion to move forward on a bill that provides long-term certainty for policyholders and makes key reforms is a significant accomplishment, and I applaud Chairwoman Waters and Ranking Member McHenry for leading the charge.

Combating Democrats' March Toward ImpeachmentEarlier this week, Democrats voted to pass H.Res. 430, the Pres-

idential Harassment Resolution, which authorizes Speaker Nan-cy Pelosi to initiate or intervene in judicial proceedings to enforce certain subpoenas. Democrats clearly won’t be deterred from im-peachment and will authorize any means for Congressional com-mittees to harass President Trump. This vote is an unprecedented consolidation of power. Speaker Pelosi will have authority to bypass the traditional House subpoena process and bring President Trump and administration officials to court on behalf of the entire House. Members deserve a voice in these matters.

The American people aren’t interested in mock impeachment hearings or relitigating witch hunts. We have a southern border cri-sis to address, a domestic economy to strengthen, and national security threats abroad to stabilize. Speaker Pelosi’s rhetoric about putting the President in jail is irresponsible, as is her leadership team’s talk of initiating impeachment without evidence to justify it. Democrats need to do their job and focus on improving the every-day lives of all Americans.

It is an honor to represent you in Congress. For more information please visit my website, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook pages.

God Bless, Steve Scalise, House Majority Whip

New Orleans Walmart Stores and Sam’s Clubs To Raise Money For Children’s Hospital New Orlean

All New Orleans Walmart stores and Sam’s Clubs kick off this year’s Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN Hospitals) fund-raising campaign to help treat local children who are sick or injured. All money raised during the New Orleans CMN Hospitals campaign directly benefits Children’s Hospital New Orleans to fund critical treatments, pediatric medical equipment, research and charitable care. The Walmart - Sam’s Club CMN Hospitals campaign runs from June 10 through July 7.

“Year after year, we are delighted to see our associates and cus-tomers band together to help CMN Hospitals provide funds for children in need,” said Lacey McGuire, Walmart market manager for New Orleans. “Due to their unwavering passion and dedication to the cause, Children’s Hospital New Orleans can ensure the chil-dren of our community will receive the best possible medical care.”

To date, Walmart and Sam’s Club associates, members and cus-tomers in New Orleans have raised more than $6 million for Chil-dren’s Hospital New Orleans, most of it one dollar at a time. On a national level, Walmart and Sam’s Club have raised more than $1 billion for CMN Hospitals; according to Engaged for Good, this is largest cash amount ever raised by one company for a nonprofit in North America.

The need is staggering – 62 children enter a Children’s Miracle Network hospital for treatment every minute. Helping these chil-dren is easy, here’s how to participate:

• Donate $1 or more at the checkout lane or self-checkout of any New Orleans Walmart store or Sam’s Club

• Spread the word and encourage others to support the CMN Hospitals campaign via social media with custom CMN Gifs and the hashtag #HelpKidsLiveBetter

Through the leadership of Sam Walton, Walmart and Sam’s Club joined the CMN Hospitals fundraising family in 1987. This annual fundraising campaign supports Walmart’s core belief of leveraging the company’s strength to give back to local communities.

Historical Signing Between Nunez & Delgado

Paris Road Clean Up Project

Monday, June 17, 2019, Nunez Community College (Nunez) and Delgado Community College (DCC) entered into an agree-ment establishing a transferable pathway for Nunez students to transfer coursework and complete an Associate of Applied Sci-ence in Veterinary Technology, Associate of Applied Science in Respiratory Technology or an Associate of Applied Science in Ra-diologic Technology and for DCC students to transfer coursework to complete Associate of Applied Science in Process Technolo-gy or Associate of Applied Science in Aerospace Manufacturing Technology.

St. Bernard Parish Government and the St. Bernard Parish Sheriff’s Office partnered to clean up Paris Road from the parish line to Virtue Street in Chalmette.

Parish President Guy McInnis stated “this project is part of a parish wide effort to remove debris and trash on parish high-ways and canals.” The clean-up project was coordinated by Par-ish President Guy McInnis, Sheriff James Pohlmann and Road Manager Louis Pomes. Parish Government workers and Sheriff’s Office trustees cleaned the parish right-of-ways on the east and west sides of Paris Road. The project included trash and debris removal, grass cutting, tree trimming, and street sweeping. Crews also cleaned ditches and drainage canal along the thoroughfare.

“I am happy to partner with President McInnis and his staff to beautify a major entrance to our parish,” said Sheriff James Pohl-mann. President McInnis would like to encourage business own-ers and residents to continue taking pride in the community by helping keep our Parish clean.

KIWANIS KORNER

Submitted by Michael Chutz The St. Bernard Kiwanis Club Meeting on May 21, 2019 had St.

Bernard Parish Sheriff's Office Sergeant Chris Scheeler and Cap-tain Stephen Ingargiola with the Special Operation and Training Division. Both men are bomb disposal certified through the FBI.

They spoke on the history of the Bomb Squad, the robot and some of the projects they have worked on. This is an incredible resource the St. Bernard Sheriff's Office has which impressed all in atten-dance at the meeting knowing that all the major training, retraining and the robot is paid by the federal government. Thank you SBSO for all that you do for St. Bernard Parish and Louisiana. God bless those who serve others.

Thomas Perrin RicheThomas “Tom” Perrin Riche passed away on

Tuesday, June 4, 2019 at the age of 56. He was the middle of three sons born to the late Claude Ber-nard Riche and Kay Lynn Connor Riche of Violet, Louisiana. He is survived by his brothers and sis-ter-in-law, Stephen Gerard, Christopher Connor, and Jamie Marie. His youngest sibling, Claudia, died in infancy from the complications of her pre-mature birth. Tom is mourned by a large extended family of aunts, uncles, and cousins as well as a

circle of friends that extends from St. Bernard to Covington and all the way to Montana and Washington State!

Tom was a simple, sincerely religious man who loved Jesus, the Blessed Mother and his Catholic faith, cared deeply, and did his best to understand a world that often frustrated him with its complexity. As a youngster, he enjoyed watching pro wrestling and football with his dad and brothers, Sunday dinners at Grandmother’s, and taking in the Mardi Gras parades. After six years of hard work, Tom earned his high school diploma from Chalmette High School and received a standing ovation from his graduating class.

Life after Katrina was harder for Tom; the storm dispersed many of the people he knew and destroyed many of the places he had built his routines around. He never fully recovered the support systems and pat-tern of activities he had before the storm. On a more positive note, the experiences Tom had after Katrina awakened a love of travel that would lead him to Helena, Montana and Seattle, Washington and even all the way to Venice, Rome, and the Vatican.

Although Tom was very frugal, he had a soft spot for hard luck stories, doing what he could for people who hit tough times. He was also quietly generous to charities that touched his heart. Throughout his life, Tom prayed every day, said the Rosary daily, attended Mass every Sunday and sometimes another two or three times a week. His loved ones are confident that he was spiritually prepared for his death and that he has been welcomed into heaven by his parents, family, and all the loved ones who have gone before.

Relatives and friends were invited to attend a visitation held at St. Bernard Memorial Funeral Home, 701 W. Virtue St., Chalmette, LA on Saturday, June 15, 2019 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Praying of the Rosary began at 12:30 p.m. followed by a funeral Mass at 1:00 p.m. He was laid to rest in St. Bernard Memorial Gardens.

day, June 12, 2019 at the age of 88. Beloved wife of the late William “Bill” Henry Wyatt. Loving moth-er of Paul P. Wyatt, Michael A. Wyatt (Cindy) and William D. Wyatt.

Gloria was born on June 3, 1931 in Mobile, AL and was an avid Al-abama Crimson Tide fan. While she was very much a lady and never cursed she did enjoy gambling and playing slots with dad. She was always up for a trip to Vegas baby! She leaves great memories for us to cherish especially her ability to burn pork chops. Gloria will be forever remembered and deeply missed by her family, friends and all of those whose lives she touched.

Nell Jobe RussellNell Jobe Russell passed away peacefully at her

home on Wednesday, June 12, 2019 at the age of 85. Her final days were spent surrounded by fam-ily and friends that she had touched in some way throughout her life.

She was the cherished wife of 65 years to James Vaskil Russell. Loving mother of Rich-ard Gordan Russell (Debbie), Randall Tracy Rus-sell, Reagan Scott Russell (Crystal), Jamie Alexis Russell Harrison (William “Mickey”) and the late

Robin Arlene Russell. Daughter of the late Roy Jobe and Jewel Smith Jobe. Sister of the late Jewel Texialene Jobe Robinson, Virginia Fay Jobe Mathews and Louis Valton Jobe.

Nell was born in Sulphur Springs, TX and was a longtime resident of St. Bernard Parish.

She was well loved and will be deeply missed by her family and by all those whose lives she touched.

Relatives and friends were invited to attend a visitation held at Chal-mette Church Of Christ, 200 De La Ronde Dr., Chalmette, LA on Tues-day, June 18, 2019 from 9:30a.m. to 11:30 a.m., followed by a funeral service in Nell’s memory that began at 11:30 a.m. She was laid to rest in Restlawn Memorial Park, Avondale, LA.

St. Bernard Sheriff's Office Junior Deputy Academy kicks off fifth year

The St. Bernard Sheriff’s Of-fice Junior Deputy Academy kicked off the fifth year of its annual summer program on June 4, Sheriff James Pohl-mann said.

Formed in 2015, the Junior Deputy Academy is open to children ages 10 to 13 who re-side in St. Bernard Parish.

Patterned after the Sheriff’s Office Citizens Police Acade-my for adults, the program is

designed to foster community pride and self esteem, while teaching youngsters about the various aspects of law enforce-ment.

The Academy, which runs two days a week through July 11, will include a visit to St. Bernard Parish Prison, fire-arms safety instruction at a lo-cal shooting range, basic first aid and CPR instruction and demonstrations with some of

the department’s state-of-the-art equipment. A graduation ceremony also will be held July 17.

During Week 1, Junior Depu-ty Academy participants spent time with deputies from the Field Operations Bureau's Pa-trol and Traffic Divisions, as well as the Special Investigations Division's Narcotics Division and Drug Abuse Resistance Education officers.

St. Bernard Sheriff James Pohlmann speaks with Junior Deputy Academy participants on June 4 during the opening session of this year’s program.

Cpl. Terry Meyer, of the Field Operations Bureau's Traffic Divi-sion, shows Junior Deputy Academy participants how loud his motorcycle sounds.
