Survivors of domestic violence run short on money to get to work, take their children to doctor appointments or get to their hearings. Cards can be mailed to P.O. Box 67, Tarentum PA 15084 or delivered from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays to the office at 500 E. Eighth Ave., Tarentum.
Alice Newton turned 100 having a great hair day.
She still makes her weekly hair appointments in Leechburg and was coiffed and ready to usher in triple digits on Friday.
Relaxing by the fire in her rural Gilpin home, Alice chimed in on her new centenarian status.
“I”ll tell ya, it doesn’t feel any different,” she said. “To celebrate, be with family … that’s the number one.”
Newton lives with her daughter-in-law, Patty Newton, on 100-plus acres that once served as a family weekend destination. She planned on enjoying a glass of wine, pizza and cake for her birthday supper.
