Flora “Dottie” Hinger, 94, of Voorhees

Flora Dorothea “Dottie” Hinger (née Bauscher), passed peacefully on the morning of September 2, 2026, at Brookdale Evesham Senior Living in Vorhees, NJ, at the age of 94. 

She was married for 61 years to John T. “Jack” Hinger, and raised three children with him. Later she decided to attend college, earning a nursing degree at an age well beyond most of her classmates, a challenge she met with eager determination and took well-deserved pride in accomplishing, working for a time as a visiting nurse. She loved nature and music, often harmonizing to her husband’s singing of old standards as they drove on family trips to the shore.

Preceded in death by her parents, Beatrice May Bauscher (née Hughes) and Walter Julius Bauscher; her husband John T. Hinger, Sr. (in 2013); and her brothers Walter Julius Bauscher, Jr. and Glenn Hughes Bauscher. Survived by her children Judith Hinger Hoskins (Darwin), John T. Hinger, Jr., and James D. Hinger (Lorraine); her grandchildren Pamela, Natalie, Kimberly (Ryan), Jacqueline (Daniel), Daniel (Madison), Matthew (Jessie), and Bo; and great grandchildren Aiden, Rylynn, Maddison, Jonathan, Vincent, and Kinsley; also her nieces Tina, Jill, Carol (Hal), Linda, and Dianne (Chris); and nephews David (May), Michael (Michelle), Bob, Don (Karen) and their families. We will all miss her.

Dottie’s memorial service will be private for her family.

DNREC’s Efforts to Save America’s Tiniest Turtle

The turtle squirms, waving its tiny legs and head in the air as if to say, “Put me down!” After a minute, the woman holding it obliges, releasing it into the marsh along with two of its compatriots. One of them scurries into the grass and muck, while the other two just sit there, perhaps unsure of what to do with their freedom. But after a few minutes, they too scramble away to begin a new life in the wetland. In the coming years, they will grow to maturity and hopefully mate, all the while being tracked by dedicated biologists.

Early A.M Standoff in Gloucester City, Suspect Arrested

GLOUCESTER CITY, N.J. — A 39-year-old Gloucester City man is behind bars after police say he doused a Ridgeway Street home and two people inside it with lighter fluid early Thursday, then barricaded himself inside the residence and triggered a roughly two-hour standoff with law enforcement.

Eugene Jackson, of Gloucester City, was taken into custody without incident at about 2:36 a.m., according to the Gloucester City Police Department.

Officers responded to a home in the 600 block of Ridgeway Street around 1 a.m. following reports of a man pouring lighter fluid over the residence and its occupants. By the time police arrived, the two victims had managed to escape the house unharmed, authorities said. Jackson, however, remained inside and refused to come out, police said.

The Science of Finding Cancer Early Just Proved Itself. The Communities That Need It Most Are Ready

By Gary A. Puckrein, PhD

Residents of Houston’s Fifth Ward live adjacent to documented creosote contamination. The neighborhood is ninety-four percent non-Hispanic Black. It is a state-designated cancer cluster. Those who live there do not need a clinical trial to tell them that cancer is coming for their community. They need a way to find it before it’s too late. 

The possibility is no longer theoretical. The NHS-Galleri study — the largest randomized controlled trial of multi-cancer early detection (MCED) ever conducted — demonstrated that a blood test can detect cancer at four times the rate of standard screening alone. Critically, it identified cancers at Stages I and II, when treatment is less invasive, less costly, and far more likely to succeed.
