State no longer
charges for
veterans death
certificates
Freeholder Deputy Director
Edward McDonnell wants all veterans and their families to know
that the state will no longer
charge for veterans death certificates.
Normally, the state charges
families $25 to obtain a death certificate. Under the new law, deceased veterans legal representatives, estate executors or family
members wont have to pay that
fee, although they would still
need to pay for additional copies
or expedited shipping.
Our Veterans Affairs Office
can assist veterans and their families with this benefit, and works
to provide greater access to all of
the programs these men and
women have earned through
their service to our country, said
McDonnell, liaison to the Camden County Office of Veterans Affairs. The Veterans Affairs Office has been recognized for the
outstanding work they do for our
military. Providing this service is
just a small way to say thank you
to the proud veterans who have
served our nation.
The Camden County Office of
Veterans Affairs can provide information on other veterans
services, including burial benefits, funeral honor guards and the
Camden County Veterans Cemetery at Harleigh. For more information, call the Camden County
Office of Veterans Affairs at 1-800464-VETS (8387).

violently assassinated.
Through the 1980s, controversy surrounded the idea of a Martin Luther King
Day. While many petitioned the president
to make Jan. 15 a federal legal holiday, others still opposed the idea. Finally, in 1986,
President Ronald Reagan declared the
third Monday in January a federal legal
holiday, commemorating Dr. Martin
Luther King's birthday.
"I have a dream that my four children
will one day live in a nation where they
will not be judged by the color of their skin
but by the content of their character "
We should live this dream in tribute to
Dr. King.

weeks, the vaccine will help the
body fight off the flu.
Be vigilant about hand washing, as there is no such thing as
too much hand washing during
flu season. Lather up for 20 to 30
seconds before rinsing with
warm/hot water.
Sneeze into tissues when
available and discard after one
use. Otherwise, sneeze into a
shoulder or elbow.
Attempt to limit touching the
facial area. Viruses already on a
persons hands hands can enter
their body through the eyes, nose
and mouth.
Attempt to avoid those who
are already coughing or sneezing,
and postpone visits with those
specifically known to already
have the flu.
If all else fails, and sickness
starts or the flu is contracted, Virtua advises to avoid other people
and stay home from work or
school so that others are not infected.

The cameras come at a time
when police departments across
the nation have be dealing with
questions regarding the possible
use of excessive force in high profile cases, such as the shooting of
Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo.
Digital Allys website markets
the cameras as allowing police departments to record video and
optional audio from your own
point of view wherever you need
it and helping them protect
your job and department and increasing the rate and speed of
convictions.
Spellman said the hope is that
what is happening in Ferguson
and other places can be avoided
in Voorhees with cameras on
every officer accurately recording events as they unfold, which
could save the township money
on lawsuits. He also said there
was no question about police
body cameras being the future.
With a camera, theres no second-guessing what happened,
Spellman said.
