The Spirit of Josh Fund

Thanks to The Spirit of Josh Fund, our kids now have a new way to make memories
outdoors.
The Spirit of Josh Fund was created in honor of Josh Zbytniewski, a young man
remembered for his kindness, adventurous heart, and free spirit. This fund supports
recreational and outdoor activities for the children at The House.
We’re proud to share our brand-new outdoor play area at our Utica Foster Care
building located at 17 Herkimer Road. It’s a space where children and families can
enjoy time together during visits, soak up the sunshine, and build happy memories
in a safe, welcoming environment.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support this beautiful legacy.

New Hartford Author T.W. Hawkins Releases
Mystery Novel to Honor Daughter’s Legacy

Local author and retired Remington Arms engineer T.W. Hawkins has released his
debut novel, The Last Leaves of October, a gripping murder mystery set in the heart
of the Mohawk Valley. But beyond the suspenseful story lies a powerful mission:
proceeds from the book will benefit the Jaime Marie Hawkins George Foundation,
which provides financial assistance to families affected by suicide loss.
The book follows the story of Charlie Dietz, a man wrongfully imprisoned for
murder, and Tom, a small-town newspaper editor determined to uncover the truth.
Rich with local landmarks and small-town intrigue, the novel pays tribute to the
community Hawkins calls home.
The novel was completed long before the tragic suicide of Hawkins’s daughter,
Jaime, in 2022. Publishing the book became a way to honor her memory and help
others experiencing unimaginable loss.
“Writing this book was a personal milestone,” Hawkins says. “Releasing it now—
with the opportunity to help other grieving families—makes it meaningful in ways
I never could have imagined.”
The Last Leaves of October is available on Amazon. Community members are
invited to support the book and the Foundation through purchase, donation, or
helping spread the word.
