Richard John Duszewski

Richard John Duszewski passed away on Friday, Sept. 3, 2021 at Kingston Rehab and Nursing Center. Richard was raised in the Honey Pot section of Nanticoke. He lived in Newport Twp. until he moved to Mountain Top in 2018 to reside with his daughter Colleen.

Born in 1927, he was the son of the late Koztek and Lottie (Grodzicki) Duszewski. During World War II, at the age 17, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy, joining his five brothers already serving in the military. He served as a gunner aboard the USS Eldorado and participated in the battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa.

When he returned home from the Navy, he began his career in the mining industry. Employed by (Biscontini) Glen Nan Coal Co., he started as a mine laborer and progressed to miner, bratticeman, fireboss and his final post as mine foreman. Richard was very proud of the fact that no miner’s life was lost under his 20+ years watch as mine foreman. He then accepted a position with the U.S. Department of Labor, Mine Safety and Health Administration as an underground mine inspector. He was later appointed to the position of U.S. special criminal investigator and held that position until his retirement in 1993. He was a member of St. Faustina’s Church, Nanticoke.

He was preceded in death by his wife of 54 years, Marion Powell in 2001; sisters, Alfreda Holton and Jeannie Warke; and brothers, Edward Dushefski, John, Stanley, Chester and Cashmire Grodzicki. Richard was the last of his generation. He was also preceded in death by his son-in-law, Leo Kaskel Jr.

Surviving are his daughters, Colleen Kaskel, Mountain Top; and Patricia Partash and her husband, Thomas “Tim,” Woodland; grandchildren, Lee Ann Kaskel, Mountain Top; Christine Henke and her husband, Jason, Kingsley; Kimberlee Mushinsky and her husband, Bernard “BJ,” Wilkes-Barre Twp.;…

UNAMI monitors hate speech against female candidates in Iraq’s elections

ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) –The United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) and civil society groups have received reports of politically motivated gender-based violence and hate speech against women running in Iraq’s elections, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for UNAMI said on Tuesday.

In a press conference held in Baghdad, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert outlined steps UNAMI will take to ensure that the upcoming Iraqi elections, scheduled to take place on October 10, are free and fair. 

Female candidates face increasing levels of hate speech, violence, and blackmail intended to force them to withdraw their candidacy. 

“We are working with civil society organizations to monitor and report political gender-based violence and hate speech against female candidates,” Hennis-Plasschaert said.

UNAMI is also providing small grants to local non-governmental organizations to provide voter education to first-time voters. 

The organization will also send 130 international experts to observe the electoral process “in advance” and “on election day.”

“The UN is deploying a much bigger team to support the elections,” Hennis-Plasschaert said. “In effect, this is one of the UN’s largest electro-technical assistances worldwide with five times as many UN personnel as in 2018.”

Despite some political parties boycotting the elections, UNAMI “believes that they have the potential to be different from elections in 2018.”

In October, over 3,000 candidates will vie for 329 parliamentary seats.

The UN diplomat also highlighted a few new electoral measures that Iraqi election authorities had put in place. As part of these new measures, a citizens’ electronic voter card will be confiscated and disabled for 72 hours after they cast their vote to prevent any “misuse”, Hennis-Plasschaert explained.

“Mobile phones and cameras, will this time not be allowed inside voting booths,” she added.

4 storm-related deaths reported in Philadelphia suburbs

MILFORD TWP., Pennsylvania (WPVI) — Four deaths have been reported so far in the Philadelphia suburbs after severe weather hit the region on Wednesday.

The victims include a man who drowned after his car went into a creek, while a woman was killed when a tree fell on her home.

POLICE ID MAN KILLED IN BUCKS COUNTY

A 65-year-old man is dead after he drowned inside his vehicle after it went into the Unami Creek in Milford Twp., Bucks County.

The victim was identified as Donald Allen Bauer of Perkiomenville.

Troopers and firefighters arrived to try and retrieve the vehicle but, police say, conditions were too severe and the search was postponed at 11:30 p.m.

A passenger in the car, a 54-year-old woman also of Perkiomenville, was able to get out of the vehicle.

At about 6 a.m. Thursday, police, firefighters and a water team returned to the scene and found Bauer’s body inside the vehicle.

The Bucks County coroner determined the cause of death to be drowning.

3 DEATHS IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY

Three people were killed in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania after severe storms from Ida hit the region on Wednesday.

“I am extremely sad to report there are currently three storm-related fatalities being investigated by the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office,” Montgomery County Commissioner Dr. Val Arkoosh said in a press briefing Thursday morning.

Action News has confirmed that a woman was killed in Upper Dublin Township after a tree came down onto a home. The woman has not been identified.

Investigators from the National Weather Service said an EF-2 tornado with winds up to 130 mph was confirmed in the area.

Its track was from the Ft. Washington area to Horsham, Pa.

No further details have been released about the other victims.

“We will have further details on those once they become available. I want to extend my deepest…
