A few years back he and his family moved to Morton, Pa where he continued to serve as the captain of the Morton Rutledge Volunteer Fire Department.

Michael Malinowski Sr.

On Monday evening, Dec. 2 Malinowski responded to the report of trees and wires down just after 8 p.m. in Nether Providence, Pa. Following the call, Malinowski reported to officers that he was feeling ill, according to the

DelcoTimes

“He was running the duty engine Monday night when they came back he let some of the crew know he wasn’t feeling well,” said Morton Rutledge Fire Chief Don Holstein. “He went to work the next morning, had tightness in his chest and was taken to the hospital where he died.”

Malinowski\’s wife, Melissa Anne posted on her Facebook page,

“My world came crashing down when Michael Malinowski unexpectedly passed away,” she posted on his Facebook page Wednesday.

I keep wishing we would all wake up from this nightmare. Please keep me, the kids, his mom, his sister, and the rest of his family in your thoughts. I love and miss you so much.”

Malinowski had been with the fire company for five years after being a firefighter in Gloucester City, N.J. Holstein said he was promoted to captain in the past two years.

“You’d walk in and he was the guy who was always there,” Holstein said. “He was all about helping others, either in community or helping friend. If you needed someone one to help you move he was there, an outstanding individual.” reported the

DelcoTimes

Holstein said Malinowski was involved in numerous aspects of the fire company from being on the board of directors to training, fund raising and running the website. \”There wasn’t anything you asked that he wouldn’t get done.\”

Since his death the American flag at the fire station on Alfa Terrace has been flying at half staff and black bunting is wrapped on the trucks as Holstein and his 25- 30 fellow firefighters came to gripes with losing one of their own.

Gloucester City Battalion Chief Pat Hagan said, \”Michael was a dedicated volunteer firefighter for the city of Gloucester City for 19 years. He gave his all to serving the residents of our community and our fire department. He will be missed not only by his friends in Gloucester City but also by those he served with in Morton, Pa. Our prayers and condolences are with his family.\”

Hagan said some members of the Gloucester City Fire Department will travel to Morton, Pa for the services.

\”We are very saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Firefighter Malinowski,\” said Gloucester City Mayor Dan Spencer.

Delaware County Department of Emergency Services Executive Director Timothy Boyce said his office was informed of Malinowski’s death and notified state officials.

Boyce said there is a window of coverage for first responders that may have had a medical event while on duty pending an investigation.

Census Bureau has Increased Pay for Positions in Camden County

Camden City, NJ)(December 2019)– The United States Census Bureau is continuing to recruit and hire individuals from hard-to-count communities for the 2020

Census. In response to the continued demand for workers in our area, the Bureau recently announced an increase to the minimum hourly rate for census positions in Camden County, from $16.50 to $17.50, and is paying over $20 an hour for certain positions.

Some communities have historically been more difficult to count than others, including those with large populations of those living in poverty, the homeless, children, and racial and ethnic minorities. The Bureau is prioritizing hiring members of these communities to help collect Census data in the neighborhoods they know.

“You know your friends and neighbors better than anyone, and that’s why we need you as a Census taker in your community,” said Freeholder Carmen Rodriguez, liaison to the Department of Health and Human Services. “Census jobs are temporary, flexible, and excellent for anyone who needs extra income or is looking to supplement their paycheck after work. This is a great opportunity to support your community while adding to your income.”

Recruiting sessions will be held at two locations in Camden City on Dec. 12, to assist interested applicants in understanding the work that is available and helping them to apply for positions.

The following locations will host recruiting sessions in hard-to-count areas, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.:

Puerto Rican Unity for Progress (PRUP)

Address:

818 S Broadway, Camden, NJ 08103

Phone:

(856) 541-1418

Additional info:

Bilingual staff will be on site to assist Spanish-speaking/Latino applicants.

Youthbuild Housing Authority Camden City (HACC)

Address:

1700 Federal St, Camden, NJ 08105

Phone:

(856) 756-0241

Staff at all branches of the Camden County Library System, as well as the Camden County One-Stop Center, are also available to assist interested applicants during regular operating hours.

“The Census dictates the size of our community’s representation in Congress and the level of funding we will be appropriated for social services and other projects,” Rodriguez said. “An accurate count is critical to ensuring that we are given the resources we need.”

In preparation for the 2020 Census, the Census Bureau is recruiting more than 400,000 part-time workers across the country, and as many as 3,000 in Camden County, to help collect census data in their communities.

Most openings are for census taker positions. These individuals conduct in-person follow-ups with households that have not completed their questionnaires in order to make sure they are counted.

Census jobs in Camden County pay an hourly rate of $17.50 and offer flexible hours that can include evenings and weekends. The community is especially in need of individuals who speak Spanish and other non-English languages to work with the diverse community in the City.

The Census Bureau is already accepting applications for these positions and encourages prospective applicants to apply as early as possible, so they don’t miss their opportunity.

Census employees must be 18 years or older and have a valid Social Security number, among additional requirements. More information regarding pay, hours, and requirements are available by visiting

https://2020census.gov/en/jobs/job-details.html

For more information regarding participation in the 2020 Census, how to respond to the Census questionnaire, and why every response is critical, residents are encouraged to visit

Rutgers-Camden took a 32-29 lead into the break, but Baruch came out in the second half and scored the first four points on a layup by Bajrami and a layup by freshman guard Sean Donnellan. That gave the Bearcats their first lead of the night, 33-32. The lead changed hands four more times and the score was tied twice

before a three-pointer by Bajrami gave Baruch the lead for good, 49-46, and sparked a seven-point Bearcat run. Bajrami had five points in that sequence.

Baruch took a double-digit lead at 61-50 on a layup by Donnellan and kept the margin in double figures the rest of the way, with the biggest margin coming at 71-56.

Bajrami shot 12-for-17 from the floor, including 4-for-8 from three-point range, and also led the Bearcats with seven rebounds and a game-high five steals. Donnellan added 14 points for the visitors.

Senior forward

Isaac Destin

paced the Scarlet Raptors with 17 points and a game-high 11 rebounds for a double-double. He also added six assists to tie teammate

Arian Azemi,

a junior guard, for game-high honors.

Azemi finished with 16 points and nine boards, while

Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital

Prestigious designation awarded by Watson Health national benchmark series

Camden City, NJ — Virtua Health is proud to announce the inclusion of Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital on Watson Health’s list of 2020 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals. The list is based on an annual study identifying hospitals that

demonstrate the highest performance in hospital cardiovascular services.

The 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals designation is part of Watson Health 100 Top Hospitals® program, which uses objective public data and proprietary analytics to evaluate hospital and health system performance. The ranking of cardiovascular programs is based on the measurement of hospital outcomes and the calculation of a composite score for certain cardiovascular admissions. The evaluation is respected for its independence and integrity in the industry.

According to Watson Health, “The 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals study identifies U.S. hospitals that have achieved the highest performance on a balanced scorecard of performance measures. This year, based on comparisons between the study winners and a peer group of similar hospitals that were not winners, we found that our study winners delivered better outcomes while operating more efficiently and at a lower cost.”

“It is extremely gratifying to be recognized as a top cardiovascular hospital—and the only one in New Jersey,” said Hans Bauer, MD, Chief, Division of Cardiology; Chairman, Department of Medicine at Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital. “The excellence of our cardiovascular program is a direct result of our team’s outstanding medical expertise and exceptionally caring nature. We want to assure our patients that we are continuing to work toward even greater improvements in cardiovascular medicine and that we are always committed to their health and well-being.”

Virtua Health President and CEO Dennis W. Pullin, FACHE, agrees, “Recognition like this reinforces the patient-centric and accountable care we strive for each day at Virtua Health. I applaud the cardiovascular group for its teamwork, continuous learning, and ongoing pursuit of excellence.”

Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital has often been recognized for its programs and services. Previously, the hospital was designated as a Truven Health 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospital (prior to Watson Health’s purchase of Truven). In November 2019, the hospital received the highest ranking, an A, in the Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade report.

Kathleen C. Del Vecchio of Sewell formerly of Fairview

On December 6, 2019, Kathleen C. Del Vecchio (nee Duffy) of Sewell, NJ (formerly of the Fairview section of Camden) passed away surrounded by her loving family. Kathy or “Kath IRISH” (as she was known by all of her family & friends) is survived by

Kathleen C. Del Vecchio

the “love of her life”, her husband, Robert “Bach” Del Vecchio. Kathy & Bach were married on September 14, 1968 and recently celebrated their 51

Anniversary. In addition, Kathy is survived by her children, Anthony (Tatiana) Del Vecchio, Christopher (Kellie) Del Vecchio and Michelle (Scott) Frampton; her grandchildren: Christopher Del Vecchio, Jr., Emily Del Vecchio, Nicholas Del Vecchio, Joelle Del Vecchio, Tyler Frampton and Ava Del Vecchio; her sisters: Rosemarie Stanton, Peggy Carty & Mary Bocchino. Kathy is pre-deceased by her mother & father: Joseph M. Duffy & Mary Higgins Duffy Gallagher, her step-father, John Gallagher and her brother, Joseph Duffy. Aunt “Kassie/Aunt Kaffy” is survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Kathy Del Vecchio grew up in Collingswood & Fairview and graduated from Camden High School in 1966. She loved being part of Camden High Avalanche Majorette Team. A few years later, Kathy worked as part of the secretarial pool at Penn Mutual in Philadelphia, PA and Cooper Hospital, in Camden, NJ. Upon starting a family with Bach, they resided in Oaklyn, NJ and planted strong roots in Fairview, from 1973-1999. In that time, Kathy was a member of the St. Joan of Arc PTA & SJOA Carnival Committee and for many years, the Office Secretary at St. Joan of Arc School, in Fairview. In addition, Kathy was a big part of the Fairview Athletic Association, Organizations of Fairview and the Fairview Little League Ladies Auxiliary, serving as President for several years. It goes without saying that all of the “Fairview Kids” were a big part of her life… and everybody called her “Mom or Mrs. D.” Whether it was coaching basketball or softball, working the refreshment stand and SJOA Carnival… Kathy loved every minute. And, of course, Kathy loved attending the many Camden High Reunions, Fundraising Socials (dancing to 60’s & 70s music), and the many Fairview Reunions and luncheons.

Kathy was very proud of the life she built with “her Bach” and equally proud of the lives her children have created. In addition, Kathy never missed an opportunity to boast about her grandchildren. Ranging in ages from Nineteen (19) to four (4) years old, Kathy loved attending her grandkids’ school events and athletics. Kathy was always one to a send a little note or card (a.k.a. her “smiles from across the miles”) to her children, grandchildren, relatives and friends. The messages always seemed to come at just the right time. Kathy Del Vecchio was loved by many and touched the lives of so many more. She will be missed.

Relatives & Friends are welcomed to attend a visitation on December 14, 2019 at 9AM to 12PM at GARDNER FUNERAL HOME, RUNNEMEDE. Memorial service at 12PM also at the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, donations in Kathy’s honor are encouraged to a choice of your favorite charity.

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia Expands CAPP+ Program

PHILADELPHIA PA–Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) is proud to announce a partnership with

The Enterprise Center

, in conjunction with Philadelphia Housing Development Corporation (PHDC), to build the number of licensed contractors in Philadelphia and expand CHOP’s

Community Asthma Prevention Program Plus Home Repairs (CAPP+) initiative.

This effort will offer training and resources to local contractors interested in scaling up their business and create economic opportunity for minority contractors as the partners build a pipeline of PHDC-approved contractors for CAPP+.

CHOP, in partnership with PHDC, launched the CAPP+ Home Repairs Program in 2018. The program addresses the impact of unhealthy housing on pediatric asthma outcomes in West Philadelphia neighborhoods, where asthma affects approximately one out of four children. CAPP+ expands the focus of CHOP’s award-winning

CAPP program

to include home repairs aiming to further reduce asthma-related emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations by removing asthma triggers in the home.

“To-date, CAPP+’s pilot program has successfully renovated 10 homes with plans underway to renovate another 29 homes within the first phase of our program. We are confident that by helping to build the supply of qualified contractors in Philadelphia, we will be able to complete even more renovations,” said Peter Grollman, Senior Vice President for External Affairs at CHOP. “In the pilot phase of the program, the average time from clinician referral to the program to final home inspection was 111 days. With our new Enterprise Center partnership and scaled up workforce, we anticipate reducing this time dramatically so that families can get into renovated homes faster, with less disruption to their daily lives.”

“The Enterprise Center is partnering with CHOP’s CAPP+ program to provide technical assistance to participating construction and construction-related businesses remediating and repairing homes to fight asthma,” said Seulky McInneshin, PhD, Executive Vice President, The Enterprise Center. “We will provide resources to help contractors achieve all of the requirements needed to make them eligible to compete for PHDC jobs, including support to obtain a contactors license, offering classes in lead containment during repairs and opportunities to boost insurance coverage.”

“The Enterprise Center will funnel contractors through to PHDC and track metrics for 5 years to watch how the businesses grow,” added McInneshin.

“With the CAPP+ Program, we’ve created the need for a construction market that didn’t exist a year ago, and we need more qualified contractors in the pipeline,” said David S. Thomas, President & CEO, PHDC. “This is the ideal opportunity for someone who wants to grow their business; we are looking for trade specialists, as well.”

After successfully meeting all of the requirements for a PHDC job, the companies can also become certified as a women/minority-owned business, and be eligible to bid on additional construction opportunities throughout the city.

CAPP+ is a component of

Healthier Together

, CHOP’s umbrella initiative that focuses on some of the most pressing health and economic needs in neighborhoods surrounding the hospital’s campus.
