Briana is Anthony’s daughter and said he is a great role model for the community.
“Everybody knows him,” she said. “He’s a softball coach, he works
for the bus yard all the kids know him on the bus.”
Anthony’s other daughter Desiree Gon- zalez said he left a last- ing impression on her life as well. “He taught me how to ride a bike, and I have the proof on my knee,” said Gonza- lez. “He’s also a wonder- ful grandfather, we love him very much."

The Garden Check- list is filled with tips and tricks for local garden- ers who wish to keep their greenery, flowers, and herbs looking beau- tiful all year long.
June days are the lon- gest of the year, so now is the perfect time to take advantage of the extra hours in your garden.
Tasks for this time of year include, check- ing drip irrigation lines and emitters for leaks or clogs and adjust to pro- vide adequate moisture.
Thin fruit on stone and pome fruit trees.
Spider mites can be discouraged by rinsing dust from foliage.
Stake tall, weak-
stemmed flowers. When pruning, re-
member to cut spent canes to the ground af- ter harvesting berries. Attach new canes to the trellis for next year’s crop. Prune azaleas, ca- mellias and hydrangeas after bloom.
When fertilizing, re- member to reduce or eliminate fertilizer for landscape trees and shrubs, unless used to remedy nutrient defi- ciencies.
Do not feed plants if water stressed.
Limit planting during hot weather, as newly installed plants require frequent irrigation while root systems become es- tablished.
Enjoy now perennials:
Lily-of-the-Nile (Agapan- thus), aster, fibrous bego- nia (Begonia semperflo- rens).
Bulbs, corms, tubers: giant allium (Allium), canna. Trees, shrubs, vines: abelia, flowering maple (Abutilon).
Fruits and vegetables: fuji apple, apricot, beans, eggplant.
Things to ponder, adjust lawn mower set- ting to cut lawn higher. Setmowerto21⁄2to3 inches for tall fescue, 3⁄4 inches to 1 inch for com- mon bermuda, and 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 inches for hybrid ber- muda.
Use less toxic insec- ticidal products such as insecticidal soaps or neem oil. Drought tip: This year’s rainfall was
less than normal, deep- rooted trees and shrubs may have depleted soil moisture in their root zones.
Slow, deep irrigation once or twice a week during the heat of sum- mer can provide suffi- cient water and partially replenish soil moisture.
