“ALL THAT HAS OFFENDED ME, I FORGIVE. WITHIN AND WITHOUT, I FORGIVE. THINGS PAST, THINGS PRESENT, THINGS FUTURE, I FORGIVE. I FORGIVE EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY WHO CAN POSSIBLY NEED FORGIVENESS OF THE PAST OR PRESENT. I FORGIVE POSITIVELY EVERYONE. I AM FREE AND THEY ARE FREE, TOO. ALL THINGS ARE CLEARED UP BETWEEN US NOW AND FOREVER.”

Car Show Tonight!

Thanks for a great Car Show everyone!!

The New York Mets celebrated Jackie Robinson Day by honoring his widow, 101-year-old Rachel Robinson, with flowers before their game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Mets legends Carlos Mendoza, Mookie Wilson, and Butch Huskey presented the flowers. Players wore No. 42 in tribute to Robinson's legacy.

Sarah Simpkins, at 102, fulfilled her lifelong dream of earning a college degree from Brightpoint Community College in Chester, Virginia, alongside her proud granddaughter, Halimah Shepherd-Crawford. Despite early challenges, including becoming a mother at 20, Ms. Sarah persevered, raising 12 children while never giving up on her education.

It is our extreme pleasure to introduce Frankford Township’s 2024 Citizen of the Year, Carol Decker, pictured with her son Clint.

When you think about people and nature you are automatically reminded that our Citizen of the year is a nationally acclaimed wildlife artist, conservationist, and educator. Among many of her accolades she was chosen to represent the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area and Delaware National Scenic River for the White House. She designed and painted two White House ornaments for the Blue Room Christmas Tree in 2007. She has six collector plates with the Bradford Exchange Plate Series. She had won the Maryland Black Bear Conservation Stamp design contest. She has been featured as the cover artist for magazines such as New Jersey Outdoors and Sussex County Journal. She has been featured as a keynote speaker at wildlife events and has been chosen the Best Local Artist in Sussex County several years in a row.

As a self-taught artist she began painting at the age of 12. Since 1995 to the present time, she has been involved as a philanthropic partner for many efforts in the community, and has donated to several local charities. Also, adding to her lengthy resume, she had a key role and was part of the renovation committee for the Richards Building at the Sussex County State Fair.

Here is a direct quote from our winner: “I see paintings everywhere, margins, boundaries, edges and frames, light shadow, the touch of a feather, a leaf or a reflection in a pool or stream. I see the glory of nature and its wildlife every day, a gift to me and I strive to reproduce it as my gift to you.

She is truly a treasure to so many. Her artwork will be featured at the New Jersey State Fair, and if you need to reach her you can find her on Facebook.
