Fond farewell set for Jim Mayo Editor's note: This appeared origi- nally in an internal publication of Baptist Health. As its first Administrator and now President, Jim Mayo shepherded Baptist' Medical Center Nassau through a remarkable transition in 17 years from a modest county hospital acquired by Baptist Health in 1994, to a state-of-thc-arl community hospital '(hat rias ~;i ned praise and accolades far beyond Amelia 0 Island. The hospital received national recognition for. its accomplishments in 2002 when Modern Healthcare magazine named Baptist Nassau one. of the Mayo nation's Top 100 Hospitals (and amnongthe top 20 forhospitals under 100 beds). Three years later, Baptist Nassau earned kudos as the first com- munity hospital in Florida to fully con- r t to electronic medical records. The staff has since earned Magnettm cer- tification, the Emergency Department is a certified Chest Pain Center, and with a decade arid a half of building projects that culminated in the opening of the Berkman Building in 2009, just about. the entire hospital has been expanded and rebuilt. "The transformation at Baptist Nassau speaks volumes about Jim Mayo's leadership," says Hugh Greene, president and CEO, Baptist Health. "While much could be said about Jim's contributions through the years, his relationships with people have been key to his success. Jim has developed and nurtured relationships within the hospital community and health system, and certainly across the community. His commitment to people has been so vital to all he has done to fulfill our health care mission and ministry in Nassau County." With his casual, encouraging lead- ership style, Mayo brought out the best in the hospital staff. He persuad- ed numerous specialty physicians to move or expand their practices into Nassau County, and by actively par- ticipating on the boards of a long list of public and nonprofit boards, he kept the hospital in sync with the commu- nity's spirit and changing needs.

Mercer City Clerk City of Fernandina Beach, FL CITY Continued from lA the property, but bank repre- sentatives told her it was not their responsibility. The fore- closure action of the property, she said, is not through the local branch of the bank, but at the headquarters in California. Mayor Susan Steger said during a commission discus- sion Nov. 15 it was "not that costly" for the city to take care of the weeds around the prop- erty, and that code enforcement should talk to representatives at the local Bank of America branch because "it's an embar- rassment." Forstrom said she had tried MAYO Continuedfrom 1A minister. This clearly influenced his vision of Baptist Nassau as a true "healing environment" offering top quality services .with the warm, welcoming, neighborly feel that has become the hospital's trademark. "We made a pledge in 1994 talking to the local bank branch, but representatives there told her that they don't handle such matters. "This is the first (bank fore- closure) that has not been coop- erative," Forstrom said at the meeting. "It's a lengthy process, but (usually) eventually I get something. They will not cooperate. The property has been vacant for about three years." According to City Attorney Tammi Bach, the city has a "first lien" on the property, which means if the lien is not paid, the city can take the prop- erty from Bank of America after a title search. that whatever we did, we would do as well or better than anybody else. We've always striven to reach that level," he says.

PERRY News-Leader Ellie and Jeff Weisfeld met at and graduated from the pres- tigious Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y. Jeff also received his bach- elor's degree in hotel restau-. rant management from Florida International University. He ran restaurants and country clubs for awhile, and then operated a successful liquor store in Baltimore, Md., for 20 years. After searching up and down the East Coast from Maine to Florida for a new destination, the Weisfelds and their daugh- ter Leah moved to Fernandina two years ago on the recom- mendation of friends and opened The Pecan Roll Bakery four months ago. The family loves their new community, saying it is a great location to live and work. The small-town feel offers the Weisfelds the opportunity to really connect and workwith their customers, whom they refer to as guests. They believe taking requests and adapting to wants helps make theirs a real neighborhood bakery. "Being in a small town com- munity gives us the ability to adapt to the requests and needs of our guests. We are happy to, work with people to offer what they would like. We are happy to take requests for seasonal-'or other specialties. Many of the delicious items that we offer were guest requests that we tried out and were popular, so they joined our regular menu." Only real, wholesome ingre- dients such as eggs, milk, but- ter, flour, sugar and cream are, used in Pecan Roll baking. "We don't use mixes or: pre- made desserts, We create all of our breads and pastries our'- selves, preserving the process- es of a true bakery. We are not corifined by the menu rstr'ic- tions of a chain or lfranchiis-e. and are able to add variety to our offerings., which is more fun for our staff as well as our - guests," said Weisleld Among the tasty treats avail- able are specialty sweet rolls. muffins. scones, a variety of breads, cookies, cakes, tortes. sweet and savory pies. great coffee and more.

HOTELS & RESORTS --NEWS LEADER amelia ISlanci pjIantdaon Nassat Uuinrtiu ]\tcrrb Say no to "bullies' So why is the banner headline not about the banner ("Banner draws official scrutiny," Nov. 18)? It is the same reason we have headlines about candidate's birth certificates these stories are political distractions that keep citizens angry; suspicious and distracted from the important issues that affect their lives in the community. Do all of us believe that political candidates should abide by the campaign sign and banner rules? I would hope so, but there were apparent sign vio- lations all along the campaign trail., A Nov. 21 "Voice of the People" letter object- ing to being held to the 3-minute citizen speaking limit expresses her frustration with the commis- sion's procedures, but does not give a-full picture of the event. For those of us who viewed the exchange, she repeatedly ignored signals to end her speech .at the 3-minute mark and then marched to the back,of the room sputtering obscenities Her speech was followed by an attor- ney who supported "her reading" of the City Code questioning the banner, forging to the podi-" um He had not signed up to speak (also an estab- lished commission procedure) and was blatant- ly disrespectful to the commission, the audience and the city attorney, who based her response upon the First Amendment to 'the U.S.. Constitution in answer to his attacks of illegality. Certainly his behavior would not becondoned by most legal professionals. Watching these citizens who parade their allegiance to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights bullying the commission was, at best, distasteful'. Although this campaign for commission has E many contentious issues, some citizens have crossed the line of civility and returned to the polit-, ical bulling that has historically been tolerated as part of our city's culture. N6, bullying is not lim- ited to children arid teenagers who attempt to , assert power and influence over others in nega- five and destructive ways, it is alive here and growing in our local political arena. , So what is political bullying? Bullies are demeaning toward their victims and rely on name- calling and. physical posturing to assert domi- nance. Bullies manipulate others by asking them to give up their values for political gain. Bullies threaten and harass their victims with derogato-, ry phone calls and scream at them in parking lots. Bullies refuse to hear more than one side, their own. All of these behaviors have been seen in this Campaign. Sadly our bullying citizens are a political model for our community's youth. After all bullying is on television and in the newspaper: it's in the homes of the bullies and on our streets. We need to step back and think about what we are teaching our, children about citizenship and civility. I Ultimately, the appropriateness of the banner display may be determined in our courts (at our. expense) where rules of civility do apply. So what's in the banner headline? It isa signal that some citizens want to keep voters angry and . distracted from the real issues of our city while they promote pettiness and their personal, power and political agendas.

Jack Tanis Fernandina Beach Walkingthe dog Lastvweekend I took my small dog to the. beach for a pleasant stroll. Once arriving over the walkover, we found an abandoned chair with a broken arm and sat down to enjoy the ocean. Soon a lady with a brown pit bull came-walking by and suddenly the dog turned around toward us, broke off the leash and attacked mydog and myself. Finally, after jumping out of the chair and holding my pet high in the air, she managed to get her dog back on, the leash. Being a little non- plussed by the surprise of the attack, I took a parting shot at the lady who had offered no apol- ogy for the incident. Her response to my exple- tive was, "You need to watch your language ' My call to 911, unbeknownst to me at the time, ended up at a Jacksonville call center When the responder asked about my location, I gave her the number of the beach access and nearest street intersection. Since the person .that answered had not identified where the 911 call had ended up, I assumed she would know my , location. She was clueless and I had to explain that I was on Amelia Island in Fernandina Beach. She then told me they were referring the call to Nassau County. I said no, the location was in Fernandina Beach and they needed to call the Fernandina Beach Police Department. Finally I was able to relate my experience to a local law . enforcement agency that promptly dispatched two vehicles to the scene. Of course after 25 minutes there was no one to.be found. My personal suggestion is that for a local 911,situation you dial 277-7342. After you get the recording, push I or 0 and you will be con- nected to a local police dispatcher that will imme- diately respond to your emergency. My other suggestion to those of us who have non-aggressive dogs that enjoy our beautiful beaches, obey the leash laws and be wary of strangers with .pit bulls or other .approaching,'i threatening animals.

City commission candidates: Why I deserve your vote New leadership with Coming full circle: " proven management skills BY JOHN ELWELL In these challenging economic times, we need new leadership on the city commission a commissioner with the proven management skills necessary.to address present fiscal realities without diminishing our city's prospects for a prosperous future. I have 37 years of business and executive experience making diffi-. cult decisions for major companies with budgets exceeding $100 mil- lion, including Rayonier Inc. I have dov'nsized several companies to increase organizational efficiency and reduce spending, earning a rep- . station for being tough but fair. I decided to enter the race for commissioner .because I was surprised by some financial deci- sions being.made at City Hall; I saw a "disconnect" between what taxpayers want and what.they believe is happening. Since no other candidate . brings my proven leadership skills to the table, I believe my private-sector business background can add value to the public decision-making .' process. For the foreseeable future, tax revenues will continue to erode due to lower property values. Elwell Therefore, government expenditures need. to be reduced now. increasing taxes and/or millage rates is not the answer. We need a commissioner with real business, experience who understands the negative effects that public financial decisions can have on local businesses, as well as on citizens facing . their own difficult financial issues. Accordingly, if elected, I plan to promote the following strategies: Set fiscally, responsible, well-defined financial guidelines for each city departnient bascd on current realilie. Cost-etticient mea-sures employed in business can and should be applied to city government. Call for a.ine-item review to achieve a balanced operating budget within the General Fund that is communicated clearly to the city's citi- zen's. Suppoi t ballot initiatives fi major capital commitments. A strate- gic plan for the city is essential, but the projects and finding need to have taxpayer input and voter approval l. S.I have been successful in business because I am a constructive and -innovative problem solver who listens to all sides of an issue and then focuses on solutions. In this community, that means listening to voters as well as to my fellow commissioners. . Equally important, I have a deep love for this city. M Ay position with Rayonier brought me to Fernandina Beach nearly 14 years ago. Except for a four-year buine,ies move back to,Texas, the Elwell family settled in Fernandina by enthusiastic choice. My wife, Mary, is a mid- dle-school teacher at St.'Michael's Academy, and I volunteer at the school. Our youngest daughter is on the FBHS Swim Team,,and in the summer I volunteer with her other swim team, the Fernandina Stingrays. A9 a father of three and a former high school teacher, I have been extremely active in sports, drama and band activities over the years. Sask you, the voter, to support me, John Campbell Elwell for City Commissioner, Group 3, based on my qualifications and what I can bring to the city of Fer nandinia Beach. . S' ~ a llorsrTea 5ry will host a debate between city commission candidates John Elwell and Sarah Pelican from 6 30- 8.30 p.m. Thursday at City Hall, 204 Ash St The program will be moderated by the Nassau Patriots and will consist of questions pre- . pared by the hosts as well as those submitted by the audience. The runoff city election is Dec. 13 I.J VIEWPOINT/BANo ROBERTS FER Ifyouthinl 7 t ust a piece of history and onime observa- 1 tions- Let me preface this writing by say- ing I arm not opposed to natural gas. _ ,J Going back some 50 years, in 1961 1 owned the Ocean View Motel and the Putt Putt Golf Course. One Sunday evening. Commissioner E J "Tironjiy" Jh n son came by the Putt Putt to tell rme of a concern he had' with his fellow city commissioners Iwas presi-. dent of the Fernandina Beach Jaycees at the time: Jimmy told me of the plan-s by the other four commissioners to go to Atlanta the follow- ing Tuesdav to sign an agreement to borrow over a million dollars from the Housing and Home Finance Agency to run a natural gas line from Miarianna to Fernandina Beach. The justification for doing this came as the -result of a prspectu s compiled by a consult- Sing firm, Harry Hendon, Assoc.. Included in their report was an income to the city .of . $35,000 from FPU. The only problem FPU changed their mind and went to JEA for -power. Harry Hendon, Assoc., knew this but didn't take that amount from their income pro- jections. It should be noted that Harry Hendon was only going to be paid if their prospectus showed the project to be profitable. The com- mission, knowing this, was still going ahead with the loan signing. ' I felt this was important enough to have Commissioner Johnson attend our next meet- ing, which was the following evening. The Jaycees decided that some action need- ed to be taken, so the next morning I sent a telegram to the Housing and Home Finance Agency threatening to sue the city if they did- n't get a revised prospectus. The HHFA told the commissioners to go home and straighten out their problems. Needless to say they were not too pleased with our actions. The Jaycees decided to do some homework of our own. The city was proposing to sell nat- ural gas at one-half cent per therm less than the bottled gas companies. We went to the bottled gas companies, ask- ing what they planned to do in the way of com- peting because their customers would be he customer base for the city. service and citizenship BY SARAH PELICAN Reflecting upon why I chose to run for city commissioner. I1 iou-.. nized three key principles that have defined the past 30 years of rny life: service to others, commitment to community and fiscal riesponsi ability. As a young woman I worked for the U.S. Air Force as a budget offi- cer with the 627th Military Airlift Support Squadron. In that capacity I was responsible for managing precious resources in the form of mnil- lions in taxpayer dollars. Exercising fiscal discipline became second nature and easily translated into my everyday way of life. It was while , working there I met my husband. John. and we soon began our family and moved to the United States. Raising a young family required many of the same skills and discipline developed while work- ing with the Air Force. In the same way ivhat I care- fully managed finite resources as a budget officer, I had to exercise equal discipline in keeping food on the table and our children provided for. E . While my boys were in school I recognized I could do more as a parent by becoming involved Pelican in their schools and church:. volunteered three days a week at ihele school and taught Sunday school classes at our family's parish. As the boys grew older and required less of my time and energy. I chose to focus those resources on the larger community. I volunleerd for Mott Childreh's Hospilal at the University of Michigan, meeting with grieving and conceal ned families in the pediatric intensive cal c unit as their children were being cared for This led to me being offered a job within the neonatal intensive care unit in addition to nmy volunteer work.. In September 2003, my husband and I arrived for a long weekend at Elizabeth Pointe Lodge to celebrate bur 20th wedding anniversary. We left as owners of a property in the city of Fernandina Beach and the knowledge this was where we wanted to spend the rest of our lives We .chose this community because, like many others, we fell in love with the uniqueness of the environment.' its old world charm and small town values. I quickly got involved in the community once again, developing friendships from the- First Coast Shag Club and working part-time at the Elizabeth Pointe Lodge. I also began observing the workings of the local government and the unique issues facing (lh community by attending both city and county commission meeting's. My constancy as a layman participant, speaking out when necessary, guAranteed recog. nation in both city and county chambers. More importantly, the deci- sion by the current cornmission to press forward with new debt against the popular will made it imperative for me to seek a seat on the commission I firmly believe successful cities rely on a blend of thriving busi- ness. quality of life. a sense of community and strong leadership to foas- ter a better environment fitr all. With that in mind, like so many citi,:. across this great nation. Fernandina Beach now faces serious issue- under historically unprecedented economic circumstances. I pledge to engage these challenges and not avoid them. I pledge to listen to you. the citizens of Fernandina Beach. and not talk at you, or 0 act against your will I pledge- to be guided by the principles.of service to others, commitment to community and fiscal responsibility. I pledge to treat your m.ney as if it i.; mn own and to make sound financial dci-;, sions for sion to run for city omilmnisikroner was a natural culmination of my experience of serving others and a strong commitment to civic involve- ment. I pledge to each of you to spend these next three years working tit elessly on yourhbehalf f1,r the betterment of Fernandina Beach and welcome your involvement and support in this endeavor, N\JD[ IN,,\ BEACH Voters are mad now... .I might be well to point S0fouit that at that time an eight-inch, line was pro- posed, but to service either S.., of the mills, a 12-inch line was necessary A 12-inch , line was deemed cost pro- .' hibitive The bottled gas compa- nies assured us they Roberts weren't about to lose cus- tomers. They were going to ' compete. Some time later a city election was held. The Jaycees decided to use the occasion to hold a strawvote on the natural gas issue We built a voting stand just north on Second Street, across from City Hall, where voting was held at that time. ' The vote was overwhelmingly against the natural gas proposal, and soon after the com- mission abandoned the idea. With the "look back in history" over, let's look at the "Forward" funding mechanism the city is committing to: the first is on the backs of local residents in the form of a surcharge on our utility bills. This is the only assured source of revenue the lending institutions can bank on to pay back the loan. The other two include FPU's natural gas line, which won't even be completed until late next year, with an unknown revenue stream, from which the city could draw from in the form of a franchise fee. The other source is from the CRA, which is dependent on area property valties escalating, which have been dormant for some time and are not expected to rise any time soon. With these two revenue streams question- able at best, guess who gets to pay the cost of the note? Mr. and Mrs. Local Resident! The local resident is the only guarantee the city has that the note will be paid. The commission apparently could care less. One of the proponents of the Forward (on the back of local residents) Fernandina pro- posal mentioned hundreds of thousands of hours spent on these plans. It's a shame the concerned people didn't bother to spend a few hours considering a way to fund such, other With these two revenue streams questionable at best. guess 'who gets to pay the cost ofthe note? The local resident is the only guarantee the city has that the note will be paid. than the way chosen; .. I made a suggestion recently about selling some vacant available land before the city sells it all to pay the exorbitant legal faces at the airport. Possibly it makes too much sense to be pursued. Now to the commission Commissioner Tim Poynter has voted to extend Alachua Street, therefore increasing traffic by his place of business This is an obvi- ous conflict of interest. Maybe something can be done about that.' In all my almost 60 years-here, I;have never seen an incumbent so soundly defeated over: what is considered a one-issue race. It is often said, the true test of an individual is how they react to adversity. An honorable loser would. have. accepted defeat by recommending that the "Forward" issue be tabled until the new. commissioners take office. So much for honor- able. The arrogance of the losers is as much 'as saying, "So you did trounce us at the polls. We're going to shove it down your throats,. anyway." I don't know about Eric Childers, but I thought Susan Steger had more class. A ,, majority vote doesn't mean anything to them. They know best!. - Newly elected Commissioner Charlie Corbett supports stopping the "Forward" action now, and so does candidate Sarah Pelican. One more vote and we can bring some reason to this. A message to next year's incumbents: If you think the voters are mad now, just wait until next year's city election. The next step forward is Dec. 13..

And home again, I just couldn't get my energy back. Besides, there were many days of nor'easter winds, exceptional high tides, it was too cold I had all kinds of excuses not to wake up at dawn to walk the beach. But one day I dragged my comfortable body out of our'. cozy bed and when Bucko went to open up Fort Clinch State Park, I finally, at long last, went for a dawn walk. It turns out that this was just what I needed. First off, I saw lots of old friends on the beach that I had missed, some human, and some canine, all familiar names and faces to me after my many years of dawn beach-walking.

As I walked along the shore- line, I found my regular avian friends, the solitary willets poking in the sand, and their smaller sandpiper cousins scurrying away at my approach. On a temporary island of sand, separated by two furrows of water, a group of seagulls rested, unboth- ered by the early morning passersby like me, who, the gulls knew, would not wade across the streams to bother them. The sand itself was full of life. As each small wave receded, bubbles in the wet sand revealed the presence of hidden clams and whelks and other assorted mollusks. Had I wanted to I could have dug them up to see what was there, but no, this time, this day, was just for.-walking. Out at sea, the view, was delightful too. Set against the rosy-colored dawn a local shrimp boat plied its trade while a faster powerboat passed by to parts unknown. As I watched the boats I was attracted to the splashes of water, and before long I noticed a group of bottlenose dolphins enjoying their own ocean feasts nearby.

V CROSSWORD/SUDOKU PEOPLE & PLACES PETS WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 30. 2011 NEWS-LEADER / FERNANDINA BEACii, FL Tis the season for tours aboard the Holly Trolley One never knows what they imay end up doing when they grow up!. Most of us have found that our lives and work have taken us down paths we never expected or planned for. David Edwards, owner of Amelia Island Trolley, certainly never thought he would run a trolley busi- ness on Amelia Island when he was growing up in Atlanta. , Edwards' family ran the famously successful Edwards Pie Company. When his father decided to sell the company it was time to find some- thing to do. After running an island lawn care service for many years, Edwards unexpectedly stumbled on a new and very different business.' It was prom time on Amelia Island and Edwards' daughter and friends decided to rent the .island tr oller for their sell- ior prom. They had ,a great time and when it turned out Sthe business was .., for sale, Edwards and his wife Ellen h' thought it would be a fun and interest- ing business to get FROM into. As they say, TIIE careful what you wish for. Yes, it has PORCH been a fun business but full of chal- Dickie lenges: A ro One of the first Anderson things on the agen- da was the purchase of two elegant white t, 1.-. -. for weddings and spe- cial occasions. The original trolley, Polly, had some health issues and has been in and out of trolley hospi- tal. Amelia Island Trolley offers a popular daily tour of the historic dis- trict and a ghost tour on Friday nights. A trolley tour with Edwards is a treat as he relates local history and his own fascinating stories of life on the island he loves. With several trolleys in their fleet, they are able to offer transportation and shuttles for weddings, corporate events, parties and even pub crawls. The trolleys are ready, willing and able to venture out and take peo- ple to the many interesting destina- tions in the area including White Oak Conservation Center, our island lighthouse, Kingsley Plantation and, even, to Jaguar games. The trolleys offer transportation for many special outings offered by The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island. "Ellen and I love working with the Amelia Island Museum of History," Edwards shared. "We will be transporting folks who will enjoy this year's Holiday Home Tour Dec. 2 and 3. We are really excited about something new this year, the Holly Trolley. Last year our family had fun decorating a trolley with holiday lights and putting on Christmas music and traveling around the island to see the light displays. This year we are offering the same fun experience to groups of 15 or more and will end up at the Florida House Inn for a holiday libation. Folks are welcome to bring their own refresh- ment of choice on the Holly Trolley. We already have lots of groups booked!" So who was the most exciting trolley passenger? Grinning, Edwards shared, "Probably Hershel Walker. What a nice guy. I got to see him when he played for Georgia and they won the National Championship. Can't,beat that if you are a Georgia fan!"

Poynter moved to Fernandina from Cincinnati in 1999 and opened Cafe Karibo while also working in pharmaceutical sales. His difficulties working with the city prior to opening the cafe led Poynter to enter local politics. Poynter discussed issues the city commission is currently tackling, including Forward Fernandina, the open- ing of Alachua onto Front Street and the potential for the pur- chase of the downtown post office building. The Fernandina Beach Rotary Club meets every Wednesday from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Florida House Inn.

He oversees the city's two fire stations, 10 fire-rescue personnel and life- guards. He noted that more than 80 percent of city fire- rescue calls are for medical emergencies, so every team is staffed by a licensed paramedic and the necessary equipment to provide advance life support. The depart- ment also works closely with county fire-rescue so that a team is on scene for fires in nine minutes or less, with a five minute or less response time for medical emergen- cies. The Fernandina Beach Rotary Club meets every Wednesday from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Florida House Inn. For information visit www.fernandinabeachro- taryclub.org.

World AIDS Day is celebrated around the world each year on Dec. 1. As one of the most recognized international health days, it is a key opportunity to raise awareness of the impact of AIDS and to celebrate victories such as increased access to treatment and prevention serv- ices. This year's theme, Getting, to Zero, calls for a continued vision to reduce the number of new HIV infections to zero. HIV/AIDS has had a devastating. effect on communities, with over 1 million per- sons currently infected. "Our community must not sit by in silence, but instead remember and inspire hope until a cure is found," said \the Rev. Mary Kendrick Moore, pastor of New Vision. A section of the AIDS Memorial Quilt will be on display before and after the service. Founded in 1987, the AIDS Memorial Quilt is the largest ongoing community arts project in the world and servess as both a poignant memorial and a powerful tool for increasing community awareness in the prevention, of new HIV infections. Each block of quilt measures approximately 12 feet square, and typical- ly consists of eight individual three-foot by six-foot panels sewn together. LJ~ I SUBMITTED Jane Lindberg views a panel of The AIDS Memorial Quilt displayed at New Vision Congregational Church. Virtually every one of the more than 40,000 colorful panels that make up the quilt memorializes the life of a person lost to AIDS., 'This is an incredible opportunity for us to be able to display the quilt in our sanctuary," said Justin Bell, New Vision member and a local chapter representa- tive for the AIDS Memorial Quilt.
