Good Work | The Walk to End Alzheimer’s takes place Oct. 10 (opens the original)
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 having a busy year | Good Work (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Humboldt County Search and Rescue helps sheriff’s departments locate, rescue, and recover missing people. They also assist in disasters and emergencies. As the organization’s website points out, with 2.3 million acres of mostly rugged terrain, we live and play in a beautiful place but at times things go wrong.

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
Good Work | ‘The sky’s the limit’ for the Eureka Theater (opens the original)
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. But the needs of the building aren’t the heart of the story, Gregg says. He serves as president of the board of the
