PHOTO BY RUDY GARGIONI As a show of appreciation, a “Thank You” cake was delivered to the Florence Police Department by Coast Jewler owner Liz Breon last week. “As I enter my 10th year of business in Florence, I look at all the blessings of liv- ing here. For a single business woman, feeling safe ranks way up there,” said Breon. “Many of the officers wave as they drive by on Bay Street, and the code enforcement officer has been very professional and always kind. As the world seems to spin into craziness, Florence is a great place to be. Again, a special thanks to our fine police department.” From left are: Local baker Kay Robertson, Police Chief Turner, Officer Merriweather, Liz Breon and Officer Pitcher. Mayor proclaims Prostate Cancer Awareness Month At the Aug. 15 Florence City Council meeting, Mayor Joe Henry proclaimed September as Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in the City of Florence. In presenting the proclama- tion to Us TOO Florence facilitator Bob Horney, Henry shared the following informa- tion: • Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed non- skin cancer in men and the second leading cause of can- cer death in men. In 2016, approximately 180,890 men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate can- cer (2,490 in Oregon) and about 26,120 men will lose their lives to this disease (410 in Oregon). • Men will seldom experi- ence any symptoms when diagnosed at the most curable stage. Five-year survival rates are nearly 100 percent when diagnosed with localized or regional disease, but it drops to only 28 percent among men diagnosed with metastatic dis- ease.
