After all, she thought so much of you that she entrusted you with the eternal care of many of her favorite possessions.
Decluttering experts will tell you that the hardest items to get rid of are those with which you have an emotional connection. Those passed into your hands from loving relatives are the hardest of them all.
But, just as preserving your family history is a deliberate and selective process, the same discretion should be used in parsing your aunt's items. Sorting through them should be an affirming and joyous process, but it's important that each item be assigned a proper home.
As a chronicler of your family history, you'll want to keep those items which evoke memories of key personal events or with which you have a strong connection (emphasis on strong). Incorporate them into your own work by noting the stories behind the items.
Other familiar items can be given to other family members or friends as you deem appropriate. Some items will not be familiar to you at all, or may be damaged. If you don't understand its significance, get rid of it. If you just can't bear to toss it, share it with others who may understand its importance and let them make the call.
By sorting and evaluating, you'll be able to put your aunt's life into a perspective that adds richness to your own personal history.

A personal letter, that is. Not a letter of complaint. Not a thank you note. Not a Christmas letter. And not an electronic one.
A real, honest-to-goodness, pen-to-paper retelling of details of your life to be stuffed into a paper envelope, adorned with a stamp and sent by what is known today as snail mail to its recipient.
Chances are, it's been a while. That's a shame. There was a time not so very long ago when letter-writing was a major means of communication. Certainly mail call was one of the few pleasures for many of us who spent extended periods of time away from our loved ones while serving our country in the pre-Internet age.
Caches of letters have proved to be invaluable assets in constructing many a family history. They fill in gaps of missing knowledge, stir memories and often reflect an eloquence too-often missing in a hastily dashed e-mail.
One question we should be asking ourselves as preservers of our own family histories is what kind of record are we leaving for our descendents? Have we done as good a job at documenting our lives as our ancestors?
For scientists, the electronic age has already created some serious problems.
As American Institute of Physics historian Spencer Weart notes: "We have paper from 2000 BC, but we can't read the first e-mail ever sent. We have the data, and the magnetic tape – but the format is lost."
Take some time to revive this lost art. Slow down long enough to dash off a personal note to someone you love. Put it in an envelope, put on a stamp (you don't even have to lick them anymore!) and send it on its way.
For some tips on writing a personal letter, you can read Kym Moore's The Art of Personal Letter Writing: 7 Basic Elements or buy Shirley Ann Parker's book, What Shall I Write? Personal Letters For All Occasions.

Family histories are different. Their relevance is easier to understand with connections to people we actually know or have at least heard about from those people who are closest to us. One of the fascinations of delving into one's past is that, for better or worse, you don't know where your path will lead.
Family history is made up of the personal histories of people within a family. It's a close cousin to genealogy. Genealogy is a hobby dedicated to creating a family tree; family histories put some leaves on that tree by telling the stories of the people who populate its branches. Blogging guru Mike Sansone, a self-described "conversation conductor" who moved his home base from Des Moines to Omaha a few years back, once described family history to me as adding the fruit to a family tree. I really like that description. After all, the stories of our ancestors nourish us and give us the sustenance of our family legacies.
In my own family, it is said that my maternal grandmother's bloodlines lead back to a pre-Civil War-era vice president, John C. Breckenridge. Another branch of the Breckenridge family tree is said to lead to one of my favorite singers of the rock 'n' roll era, Grace Slick of the Jefferson Airplane. That makes us distant cousins. Very distant.
Sometimes your family history research takes you to darker places. For instance, there's ample evidence that at least one of my ancestors may have been a slave owner.
One story making the rounds gives a tip on how to deal with the black sheep of your family. When a family historian discovered that a relative had been publicly hanged, he wrote about the incident: "He died during a public ceremony, when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed beneath him."
What about you? What surprises have you found in your family's history?

In case you're not familiar with the term, it's commonly used in social media to describe some sort of post about one's past. It usually involves sharing of a cherished photo or story about a meaningful event from someone's personal history.
That's pretty much what I did every day in my career as a personal historian. I helped people preserve for future generations those important moments from their lives. It should come as no surprise that researching family history is the No. 2 hobby (behind gardening) in the United States.
Preserving personal history 1) is a huge reward with zero risk, and 2) anyone can do it. You don't have to be a great writer to jot down your memories and someone out there wants to read whatever you have to say. There's no reason to be intimidated by the prospect of sharing what you already know with an audience that's eager to hear about it.
One of the most common rationalizations I hear from people for not preserving their own family history is that "My family isn't all that interesting."
Are you sure?
Truth is, most families have a very interesting history and just don't realize it. For one thing, most of us grow up hearing the same family stories over and over again. For us, they're nothing special. To someone else, however, those stories can be spellbinding.
In my own family, an uncle carried around in his family history the story of his grandfather serving time in a Danish prison. One of his sisters, my mother. who shared the same family history, was unaware of this part of family lore until my uncle casually mentioned it at a family gathering. Perplexed, she asked him why he hadn't mentioned it before. His reply: "I thought everybody knew that story."
How many family stories are lost because they aren't shared, even with their closest relatives?
It's never too late to get started.
Don Crowdis, a resident of Toronto, began writing his "Don to Earth" blog when he was 93 years old. Crowdis wrote his blog posts by longhand at his kitchen table, then mailed them to New Brunswick where a family member typed them and posted them. Crowdis, who died in 2011, just short of his 98th birthday, created a devoted readership with his recollections of a lengthy and colorful family history and claimed the title of "the world's oldest blogger."

Sometime between the fall of 1948 and the spring of 1949, my Dad - Walter B. Lehmer - handed Clerk No. 3 at Peoples Department Store in Council Bluffs, Iowa, a dollar bill as payment for six screw anchors. Dad - better known to family and longtime friends as Jack - then pocketed his two cents change and returned to his new home at 420 N. 28th Street.
I know the details of the transaction because I have the receipt, one of several dozen receipts we found in an old Iowa Clothes Shop box when we moved Mom and Dad from that 28th Street home to an apartment in 2008. Mom died after just six weeks in the apartment; Dad lasted five years longer before dying on Jan. 5, 2014, at the age of 93.
Dad wasn't a pack rat but he did keep meticulous records of things that were important to him. That would include the construction of his own house, which Dad not only oversaw as his own contractor; he also recruited virtually every able-bodied family member to take part.
I'm sure that included his dad, Harry, and brother, Calvin, and I'm absolutely certain it included members of my mother's side of the family. My grandfather Jens C. Andersen, a cabinetmaker from Denmark, undoubtedly was a key member of that team, as was my uncle, Lyle Cody, a much-respected electrician in the area. Even my uncle, Richard Andersen, remembers laying sub-flooring "at a diagonal" as a 14-year-old.
But no one was more crucial to the team than Mom. Dad was working "second trick" (4 p.m. to midnight) at the railroad in those days so he would drive nails halfway during the day and Mom would finish them up at night. Plus, Mom had two young children to contend with, a rambunctious three-year-old and another who didn't reach his first birthday until February 1949.
It was the expanding family that created the necessity of a new home in the first place. Dad's first house was a hand-me-down from his grandfather at 2619 Sixth Avenue in Council Bluffs. When Dad took ownership, the Sixth Avenue house didn't even have a furnace. Dad fixed that, but it still wasn't suitable for an up-and-coming modern young family in the late 1940s. So he plunked down $600 for the 28th street lot and started construction.
Dad hired people to grade and escavate the site and to do foundation work, including installing some basic plumbing. Then the family took over.
There must have been some pressure to get things buttoned down before winter set in since our family would live in the basement until the rest of the house was finished, which pressed well into the spring of '49.
Dad spread the business around, engaging just about every company in the home construction business. He bought lumber and trim from Cohoe, Johnson Cashway, Platner, Joyce and Crawford. Besides Uncle Lyle, he had electrical work done by Square Deal Electric, Joos Electric and Wack Electic. There are also receipts from Hanusa, Bogardus, Hoagland and Beno's - all big names around Council Bluffs back in the day.
Dad even drew on his Union Pacific connection, buying a couple of truckloads of wood salvaged from old boxcars for a mere $6. While Dad was likely pleased with the purchase price of the wood that would eventually provide the sub-flooring, he was likely rankled that he had to pay twice as much - a full $12 - just to have the wood delivered.
We know from the receipts that Dad paid Ben Schneider to do plaster work, W.C. Turner did some grading, Melvin Pierce did some cement finishing and that Jim Deal - a neighbor of my Grandma Lehmer - cashed several checks for doing what was noted as "labor." He must have been good. Stanley Dofner was paid $5 for a load of cinders, probably for the driveway, which sounds like a pretty good deal.
It's all right there in the box of receipts. On Nov. 2, 1949, Dad tallied it all up. The total at that point was $4,691.41, including the $600 he paid for the lot. I don't know if that was the final total for the house he built, but I'm still impressed that a young man not yet in his 30s would tackle such a task. I suspect, however, that many of his contemporaries, raised in the Great Depression and tempered by the global devastation of World War II, might not see it as such a big deal.
When a person builds a house, it's a commitment to a project without end. Although we lived in the basement that first winter, the basement was pretty much unfinished for the 60 years Dad and Mom lived there. The attic was unfinished, too, until 1961 when Dad finished a room upstairs for me as a 16th birthday gift. It would be another year or two, though, before he added heating ductwork to the room, meaning I spent many winter nights sleeping on the floor in the living room.
My brothers Dave, Ron and I logged many hours on that floor on hot summer nights in the 1950s as our window air conditioner was capable of cooling just half of the main floor of the house. So Mom tacked up an old chenille bedspread to contain the cool air in the living room and their bed room.
Dad and I had a fairly contentious relationship in my younger years. It's understandable given that I was the first-born child of parents who were themselves first-born. We were all learning as we went and, as part of the first post-WWII generation, my world view was much different from those upon whose shoulders I was carried. By the time I left home for good, I truly realized and appreciated how much my parents had done for me.
It's easy to overlook the daily influences of a parent. How they petition the city to ban parking on a busy street where their children play. How they spring for pricey wall-to-wall carpeting to cover burns on a beautiful hardwood floor caused by careless childplay with matches. How they stand up for a kid whose new tennis shoes are stolen from a school locker. How they build a new porch designed to provide shelter for the family dog. How they assume coaching duties in a sport they don't understand just so their child can play.
Yes, Dad did all that, and more. Like taking cheese sandwiches to work every night while working odd hours just to provide for his family. Like taking responsibility for a laundry tub full of "fancy" mice after his oldest son takes off for military service. Like forgiving another son who had the misfortune of having the entirety of the family movie collection stolen while at work. (Mom even found humor in that situation, quipping "Imagine the guy that stole the movies, instead of seeing pornography, having to watch a young man sipping fake tea at a tea party with his three young sons while sitting in a closet.")
Mom and Dad were teetotalers, except for a brief time late in their lives when they tried wine because they read that it was good for their health. Turns out they didn't like it at all. Nevertheless, when I turned 21 and was still living at home, they let me have hard liquor in my room. They let me smoke, too, although it must have stunk up the house. (I never allowed smoking in my own home after kicking the habit as an adult.)
Dad ended pretty high up in his railroad job and for a time was part of the Union Pacific staff. He was an expert in cleaning up derailments, which kept him on-call. He traveled quite a bit, which he hated, but it was cool to know that people thought enough of his advice to ring him up. His most interesting duty (I think) was the time he was the railroad's escort on a private train belonging to Howard Hughes. The trip involved a middle of the night stop near Las Vegas, removal of a man by ambulance, and a tense meeting with reporters in Los Angeles. I love the story, but Dad hated that situation, too.
Dad was a devoted employee, so much so that he turned down a post-war job in the oilfields of Southern California near where I was born so that Mom could show off her new baby to family back in Iowa. I often wonder what would have happened had he stayed in California, but I'm eternally grateful that he turned down the general car foreman job in Green River, Wyoming, just before my senior year in high school.
It was something of a shock to me when Dad announced that he was retiring from the railroad at age 60. He had given 40 years to Union Pacific and had no real hobbies, outside of photography, which he pursued intently during the 1960s and early 1970s. He dabbled at woodworking and considered model railroading. He played some golf and rode bikes with Mom, but most of his retirement years were spent just hanging with Mom.
They attended Seabee reunions, did a lot of country music jamming (Mom on fiddle; Dad on dobro) and were South Texas snowbirds in the winter. They provided RAGBRAI support for me and my kids and spent most weekday mornings sharing breakfast with a wide assortment of friends.
When the house became too much work, Mom and Dad moved. Six weeks later, Mom died. In September 2012, my brother, Ron, died. Dad followed on January 5 and our family of six (my brother, John, died as an infant in 1952), has been trimmed to two - me and my younger brother, Dave.
Although I joke about it, it's a sobering thought to think that I'm now the patriarch of my family. That's a role previously assigned to old men, like my great grandfathers, grandfathers and Dad. And, as you can read here, Dad left some mighty big shoes to fill. I'm proud that he was my Dad. I loved him ... and I will miss him.
There are few occasions that bring family together better than Thanksgiving. This famous Norman Rockwell illustration was first published in 1943 yet still represents the Thanksgiving ideal for many of us.
My own family Thanksgiving tradition is really a patchwork quilt of traditions. I don't have one single, over-riding memory of the holiday but rather many snippets, almost all involving family.
As a youngster, we spent most of our Thanksgivings at my Grandma Lehmer's. I confess to not remembering this until I started sorting through slides that my Dad shot of various Thanksgiving gatherings. There it is, in vivid Ektachrome - the main table loaded with Thanksgiving goodies and we kids - my brothers and cousins - assembled at card tables scattered around the dining room and living room, carrying out our own particular brands of mischief. My brothers seemed to have better memories of this than me, but Dad's photos were a big help to me.
I suspect that Dad's November 22 birthday had something to do with his mother assuming the role of Thanksgiving Cook in Chief. Although I didn't appreciate it at the time, she was a marvelous cook.
After I joined the Air Force just before Thanksgiving 1968, it would be several years before I enjoyed a Thanksgiving dinner with my larger family again. I spent Thanksgiving of 1968 in a mess hall in the early days of basic training. A year later, I celebrated the holiday with a bunch of fellow junior officers in Champaign, Ill., followed by a game of touch football.
For our first Thanksgiving together as a married couple, Linda and I celebrated at the Vacaville, Calif., apartment of some Air Force friends from Detroit and for the first time in my life I ate a roasted capon instead of turkey on Thanksgiving.
After moving back to Iowa, Linda and I celebrated most Thanksgivings in our own home, generally with our own growing brood, sometimes with other relatives. Sometimes we ate at other relative's homes. Since moving from the extended family headquarters in the Omaha-Council Bluffs area, we've focused on making Thanksgiving a welcoming holiday in our Urbandale home, especially with our three children.
But, of course, kids grow up and move away and old traditions give way to new ones. Bret and Claudia now regularly entertain friends and Claudia's family in their Silver Spring, Md., home on Thanksgiving. Aaron and Rana will probably enjoy the day with friends in their Oakland, Calif., home, although vegetarian Aaron will probably insist on some Tofurkey, a turkey substitute that falls well short, in my estimation.
That leaves daughter Meghan, who this year has invited us to enjoy a free-range turkey in her Urbandale home with her husband, Paul, and son, Evan.
So, even though my Thanksgivings have been all over the place, they have one thing in common - good friends and family - and isn't that the best you can get from any tradition?
I can't say that I'm surprised. I saw some of the promo ads for it and it looked like a real stinker. There are lots of those around today but there are lots of really good shows, too. In my lifetime, I've spent way too many hours in front of the TV, which leads me to my point ...
People of my generation, people who grew up with Milton Berle, Jack Benny, the Firestone Hour and Friday Night Fights, can often measure their life history by the TV shows that were popular at the time. Oh Susannah? I thought Gale Storm was awfully cute. Cimarron City? That cowboy is married to Dinah Shore, the "See the USA in your Chevrolet" girl? No way! Liberace? Something's not right with that guy.
If rock and roll is the soundtrack of our lives, TV has to be the video equivalent.
People in my parents' generation had the Great Depression and World War II. Earlier generations had similar big events in their personal histories, tales of hardship, immigration and, occasionally, triumph.
But they didn't have television. If you're telling the story of anyone who came of age after the mid-20th century, don't forget to ask them about television. You might be surprised at how important it was in their lives.
But this year's birthday will be a little more lonely than those of recent years. This year I won't be getting a call from my brother, Ron.
For the better part of the past 30-some years, ever since a job shift put 120 miles between us, I could count on a birthday call from Ron. "Whatcha doin'?" he'd ask "Not much," I'd say and we'd begin sharing what was going on in our lives. Work. Kids. Spouses. Mom and Dad. Pretty innocuous stuff by just about any measure except the immeasurable Thinking Of You scale.
I never asked but I'd like to think Ron enjoyed those brief calls as much as I did. I'll never get the chance to ask now. Ron died last month after a lengthy battle with complications stemming from his exposure to Agent Orange while serving his country in the U.S. Navy some 45 years ago.
He was my brother for more than 64 years so I know quite a few stories about "Horizontal Ronald," some I could even repeat in a forum such as this. There was the time he fell victim to someone else's regurgitated spinach, the BB shot fired dead-center on a bedroom mirror, an ill-fated copper mining excursion in our basement, professional-style wrestling in our living room and the time a bicycle chain snapped some 15 miles from home and a team effort was required to tow a neighbor friend back to town.
Of course we shared these stories, and more, whenever we got together, usually 3-4 times a year. But truth be known, Ron was closer to our other surviving brother (brother Johnnie died at 5 months of age in 1952), Dave. I left home for good when Ron and Dave were in high school together. Since they had more shared interests and both remained in or near our hometown of Council Bluffs, it's only natural that they stayed close over the years.
Thus Dave shared some of his recollections of Ron at a memorial service. Anyone who knew Ron would agree with the description of him as a big teddy bear capable of lovingly smothering mere mortals in one of his bear hugs. Ron was a big man in a family of big men. At 6-4, I'm the runt of the group. Ron was a good 2-3 inches taller than me with broad shoulders and a sweet disposition. I've often told people that he's the most selfless person I've ever known. Not an ounce of ego spoiled Ron.
Dave told of the time he and Ron rode the bus to a movie with Mom when they were youngsters. Both were paper carriers who always had a pocketful of rubber bands. As they waited for the bus to return them home, it was only natural that they break into a rubber band fight, ducking and dodging around Mom while firing at each other. This caught the eye of a Council Bluffs policeman who drove to the curb and asked, "Ma'aam, are these boys bothering you?" Without batting an eye, Mom replied: "Yes, officer. But they're mine."
But, even with our long family history together, I learned some new things about Ron at the memorial service.
From his pastor, I learned that Ron once built a downstairs bedroom for the pastor's daughter since "a girl needs her own room." From Dave and Ron's son, Jason, I learned that Ron not only knew the artist, title and year of just about every rock song from his youth, he could also sing along with the lyrics and with a decent - but loud - voice. I had no idea.
The photo I've used with this post is one of my favorites of Ron. The sheer joy of living that Ron exhibited throughout his life is evident in this photo, I think. I put up a few more pictures of Ron on my Facebook page. Check out my photo tribute to Ron.
So, I may not be treated to the sound of Ron's voice with a birthday call this year, but he'll never be far from my thoughts.
Jessie (age 57) is recovering from a lengthy hospital stay for a sore back and has yet to return to her job at Kilpatrick's Department store in Omaha. Her husband Harry (age 60, who she refers to as Daddy), a boilermaker's helper at Union Pacific Railroad in Omaha, was recently hospitalized with a serious illness.
Other people mentioned this week include Harry and Jessie's daughter, Agnes Grosvenor (37), who lives across the street with her husband, Jack Grosvenor (40) and their three children – Judy (18), Linda (16) and Jackie (4). Another daughter Phyllis (35) lives in Pasadena California, with her husband, Don Lidikay (42). Also mentioned are their oldest son, Walter (referred to as Jack or Jack L., age 38), his wife Elsie (36), Harry's brother Warren (64), Harry and Jessie's youngest child, Calvin (30), Miss Morton (Harry's nurse) and many of their friends.
July 1, 1959 (Wednesday)
"Daddy is so weak. Several times he had weak spells – sweating, fast pulse. I stayed in his room all nite, made a bed on 3 chairs, dozed some. … Miss Morton came in, looked at him, told me to use the other bed as long as no one is in it. I hate to. The night nurse asked me why I didn't. … Jack L. was here for a while. Daddy got his intravenous. Agnes left 3:30, Daddy woke up. Jack L. asked how are you. Daddy said 'Alright,' so weakly, just a whisper. He has tried to kiss me several times."
July 2, 1959 (Thursday)
"This is the saddest day of my life. My Harry went to his heavenly home. I can't even write. He passed away at 5:43 p.m. He went so easy so God has answered all our prayers. That has been my every prayer – that he would be merciful, make it easy for him. Jack, Agnes, Calvin & Opal were there most all day. The boys went to work, not knowing it was so soon. Agnes, Mr. Greiss and Linda was with us. Jack G. came in, Jack L. just when he drew his last breath. I got to hold him in my arms to the last, and then I hated to leave him. Part of me has gone with my darling, if I could have gone along with him."
July 3, 1959 (Friday)
"Almost 11 p.m. I am going to stay with Agnes again. Thot Phyllis might get home, not until Sunday morning. We went up to Meyer Funeral Home 9:30, made arrangements for funeral. The children all went with me. We have decided on Monday, 2 p.m. Calvin and Opal came and cleaned my house all over. Calvin was so good, scrubbed and waxed kitchen floor. I can't think, everything is so hazy. We took Daddy's clothes up to funeral home, we got to see him tonight. He looks so good. We are surprised because he had lost so much weight. He looks so natural, almost a smile, so peaceful. We have his glasses on, that looks so natural. We went up for about 2 hours, stayed. I still hate to leave him. I am so tired, sleepy. My legs have a funny feeling. I slept good last night, hope I do tonite. When I woke up this morning, it came to me. Daddy is gone."
July 4, 1959 (Saturday)
"10:25 p.m. I am staying with Agnes again. All of us went up to funeral home, Ray came up. I just can't leave my darling. I sat by his side tonite, thinking back 40 years ago this summer when we first met, our good times we had thru our marriage. As years passed, the children came along, our happiness, hard times, troubles, all brought us closer together. The sickness, death of loved ones, always each other to lean upon. So God has certainly blessed us, even tho we may not have deserved it at times. So now God has taken my loved one home and I am left alone. I know he will take care of me as he has these past weeks. The children have been with me all day. Phyllis should be in about 4 o'clock, we are going after her about 6:30. Calvin is 30 years old today. Rained during the night."
July 5, 1959 (Sunday)
"Another day. So lonely without my darling. We went over to the Union Station, got Phyllis. She has to leave Monday nite, would love to have her stay longer. Agnes doesn't feel good. Everyone is so tired and weary. The neighbors have been so thoughtful and our friends, bringing in food. We all went to funeral home again, stayed until 9 p.m. So hard to leave. I want to go, be with my Daddy so much. I still feel if God will take me home, I am ready. Phyllis will be with me tonite. Charlie & Eva Taylor came down after we left Meyers Chapel. Mr. & Mrs. Steve Buck. It was late. We appreciate their calling."
July 6, 1959 (Monday)
"This was a sad day, such a heart-breaking one. We laid our Daddy to rest. It was so hard, no one will ever know until they experience it. My heart is so heavy and burdened. Oh dear God, help me, give me strength to go on. I just hope the Lord will call me home. I had a Western Union draft from Warren for $10. I can use it any way I want. May use it for myself. I am short of money. I have $17.60 for cancer fund. Doris & Roy Smelser came this eve, Don & Emma Lou McMullen, Donna Thompsen & daughter from North Bend. Daddy's check came, it had to be returned. I needed it badly. I was sick thru the nite, have done fine until now so thank God for it all."

Grota out as Delafield city assessor
Magnan hired without city seeking bids
City of Delafield - For the fourth time in 15 years, the Common Council has changed city assessors, and this time it cost the taxpayers some money.
After a closed session Monday night, the Common Council approved a mutual termination agreement between the city and Grota Appraisals of Menomonee Falls.
The council agreed to pay Grota $9,300 to terminate the four-year contract, which was not scheduled to expire until Dec. 31, 2013.
"It is the intent of the parties that only positive experiences involving the contractual relationship between Grota and the city will be provided to any person making inquiry with either the city or Grota," according to the contract.
Mayor Ed McAleer provided an uncharacteristic "no comment" when asked why the city paid to terminate the contract a year early.
"We want to go in another direction," he added.
He said Magnan Assessment Service of Waukesha has been hired for one year at a fee of about $29,376.
City officials acknowledged they did not seek proposals from other assessing services before hiring Magnan.
"I don't recall ever seeking an RFP (request for proposal) for an assessor. Besides both myself and (City Clerk) Gina (Gresch) have had previous experiences with the Magnan that were positive," McAleer added.
Mike Grota could not be reached for comment and did not respond to a telephone message from Lake Country Publications.
Magnan served as the city assessor in the early to mid-1990s during McAleer's first tenure as mayor. Magnan was replaced in 1997 by National Appraisals of Milwaukee. National Appraisals were replaced in 2004 by Accurate Appraisals of Menasha during Mayor Paul Craig's administration.
Shortly after McAleer became mayor again, Grota replaced Accurate Appraisals.
McAleer said Grota was hired by the city because it submitted the lowest fee during a request for proposals process.

AGENDA: Last chance to register before July 8-9 show.
ISPO: Shanghai trade show runs July 2 - 4.
Details on Industry Insight.
Surf Expo started Thursday, and it's a good thing there are still two more days of the show. There are a massive amount of booths to get through, and I barely made it out of the surf section.
The crowd was fairly steady throughout the day and rose by late afternoon. Attendance was up 39% on the first day of the show vs. the first day last January, Surf Expo said.
For many retailers, this show is their most important show of the year.
"This show has been the main show for a lot of people for a lot of years," said Yehuda Azoulay of Padre Island in Texas who owns Que Padre and Extreme, two large beach and surf shops in the area.
He said he can only come for a day and a half this year, but it's all business during his stay. "When I come here, I come to buy," he said adding that it's the same way for many retailers at the show.
I ran into several retailers at the show, including Tom Brown of 17th Street, Ben Murphy from Bird Rock Surf Shop, Coco Tihanyi of Surf Diva, and Bobby Abdel of Jack's.
I also saw some interesting new shoe categories from brands, new materials, and some innovative technology in wetsuit and waterproof apparel.
I'll have more stories and pictures coming soon.
See our slide show, above, for photos of Day 1.

Felicidad Y Perpetua
by Fanny Lu
Released: Nov 2011
Label: Universal Music Latino
Fanny Lu has always mixed Colombian pop-folklorico (cumbia, vallenato) with killer hooks and beats, but now she's got that formula down to a science. Like the split personality photo of Lu on its cover, Felicidad is at once slick and friendly. Lead single "Fanfarrón" gestures toward the sunny acoustics of her big hit "No Te Pido Flores," but beyond that, Lu gets adventurous: "Ni Loca" layers electro-cumbia with ska-ish horns and Latin pop licks; "Te Amo, Te Amo" samples "Funkytown"; and the quirky, reggaeton-laced cumbia funk of "Don Juan" shows just how effervescently Lu can sell her formula.

*We're not sure why the expansion download doesn't work sometimes.The solution mostly it involves retrying a bunch. Jumping between "restore purchase" and "buy expansion" will eventually get you the expansion. During the "waiting for a response from the store" phase, it shouldn't take more than a minute or two so if it takes longer than that... cancel and switch to the other option. Sorry for the trouble. I wish I knew a better way to fix this. Thanks for playing!

Astro Frontier
On the far side of the galaxy, a new planet has been discovered! Lead an expedition through the depths of space to be the first to colonize the planet. Manage resources and keep your crew happy, assembling your fleet as you build new ships such as the bubbly Manufacturing Ship or the combat-ready Stingers. Speed is key when trying for the high score, but beware of space pirates looking to end your journey once and for all! Blast off on a turn based sci-fi adventure in Astro Frontier!
What is Astro Frontier?
Astro Frontier is a turn based casual resource management simulation that was inspired by the classic Oregon Trail game we enjoyed as kids, as well as Euro-Style Board Games like Agricola and Battlestar Galactica. Astro Frontier, like Oregon Trail, is a game about traveling to a far away destination but with resource balancing mechanics derived from Battlestar Galactica and a scoring system learned from Agricola, all wrapped up and presented as a deep-sea-themed deep-space sci-fi adventure that will have you crossing a vast ocean of stars to make it your destination.

What are people saying about Astro Frontier?
"Like Oregon Trail but in outer space. Only slightly less dysentery though." - a Google User
"Turn based space strategy with elements of rock paper scissors, Homeworld, and FTL." - a Google User
"Astro Frontier is a game that might appeal to folks feening for Oregon Trail, except that this adventure takes place a few feet higher in the air, and there is much less flux to contend with. Thankfully." - androidrundown.com [Overall score: 8.25 out of 10]

Customer Reviews
Used to love it...
I used to love looking at this app and reading the stories. The older version (pre 2013) was so much better anyway. The forced viewing of advertisements every time I want to read a story or even scroll through pictures is enough to make me delete this app and write this review. No updates to this app since November 2013, so obviously no one cares about it being current anymore. First downloaded this app when it had just come out, now I'm extremely disappointed. Either fix the issues or delete it altogether.
I had this app about a year ago & forgot to reinstall it in my new iphone. After installing it this week, I was disappointed & confused. The format itself is horrible. Almost every time I click to expand the story, it sends me off to a random website link, or shuts down, or takes me to an unrelated story. So frustrating. What's the point of an update if the user experience isn't even as good as the previous version?
Don't waste your time
This app is a complete waste of time. Half the time my app won't even open, period. When it does open you are randomly taken to another browser window without your permission. INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING! Plus, it's no longer clear which article is a video before you click on it. There used to be a camera icon on the vids, sometimes I don't want to watch a video.

Diane by Diane von Furstenberg
I'd imagine that a challenge for a perfumer working on a mainstream release in an identifiable genre, with mindless briefs, insufficient budgets and vague/contradictory restrictions ('We want a big cotton-candy perfume like X and Y, but classier, edgier and, you know, not really so cotton candyish. And it should read as exclusive and expensive but, you know, not really cost anything.') is can you manage to make a good perfume?
