    Good Work | The Walk to End Alzheimer’s takes place Oct. 10 (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    This column feels more personal than most because my father, who just turned 90, suffers from dementia. While he hasn’t been specifically diagnosed, we’re pretty sure it’s Alzheimer’s. I’m the child who lives too far away to be actively helpful, so I try to be supportive from afar while my mom, also pushing 90, and my sister serve as dad’s caregivers. He remains himself in many ways, but sans most of his memories and with a world that grows ever smaller. For years, Alzheimer’s was something of a

    Humboldt County Search and Rescue helps sheriff’s departments locate, rescue, and recover missing people. They also assist in disasters and emergencies.

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    She might not describe herself this way, but I’d say Susan Benoit finds herself on a crusade … a nice crusade. She serves as spearhead of the Redwood Coast Reading Alliance, an online information and resource clearinghouse for families, educators and physicians in Humboldt County who are interested in learning more about reading and dyslexia. Knowing that rural communities have few resources for people who struggle to read, Susan and her colleague, Stephanie Strasser, created their website to of

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Gregg Foster and I are standing at the edge of the balcony inside the spacious Eureka Theater. She’s a grand old lady, built during the heyday of American moviegoing by a man named Mann. George Mann built several theaters, including others in Arcata and Fortuna. When the lights are down, she’s beautiful. When the lights are on, as they are now, you can see that she needs some work.
