Barbara T. Evans enjoys pre-
paring meals, especially for
family and friends who enjoy
eating. She especially likes to
prepare full course dinners,
including appetizer, entree and
dessert.
Kept busy by her duties as a
minor judiciary court adminis-
trator for District Justice Earl
Gregory, whose offices are in
Shavertown, Barbara solves
meal preparation by using a
crockpot — ‘‘the greatest” to
save time. ‘Put the food in
before you leave for work, set it
at low, and when you come
home, dinner is just about ready
to serve,” said Barbara.
Barbara resides in Shavertown
with one of her children, Barbara
Anne. Her son, Corporal Mat-
thew Evans, is stationed with the
U.S. Army at Fort Irwin, Calif.;
daughter, Jean, resides in Shav-
ertown; daughter, Carol Honko
and son-in-law, Tony, live in
Clearfield, Pa. with their two
children, Tony and Tracy; and
her daughter, Chris and her hus-
band, Bob Moran, reside in
Mahanoy City with their daugh-
ter, Katie.
Barbara goes to visit her chil-
dren whenever possible. She and
her daughter, Barbara Anne,
also enjoy traveling and have
been to Florida and New Mexico
during the past several years.
In her leisure time, Barbara T.
likes to crochet afghans for her
children and also does a lot of
crafts. Recently, she has been
making hoop wall hangings for
the various members of her
people
family.
Barbara T. is also very active
in Gate of Heaven Church. She is
a lector, and also is a member of
the Altar and Rosary Guild. She
is also coordinator for the Light
of Christ Prayer Group.
Recently, Barbara has been
trying various recipes in her new
microwave and in the near
future plans to enroll in a class
to learn how to prepare various
gourmet foods.
The recipes Barbara shares
with Post readers this week are
favorites of her’s and her family.
The Crock Pot Vegetable Beef
Soup is a favorite of Barbara’s.
She said she makes a different
kind of soup at least once a
week. The Banana Bread is a
favorite of the entire family and
the Poached Fish is easy to
prepare and make a very tasty
entree for family or friends. The
Fresh Fruit Cup recipe is made
by Barbara every time the entire
family is together or whenever
she is asked to bring something
to a covered dish or buffet type
luncheon.

Theresa Weidman opened her
Unisex Salon located on Memorial
Highway, Dallas, in September of
1985.
A resident of the Harveys Lake.
area, for three years she traveled to
West Pittston every day where she
had opened a hair care salon. Tired
of the daily trip, Theresa decided
the time had come to open a salon
closer to home so when she found
the location in the new building on
center of Dallas, she opened ‘Ther-
esa Weidman’s Unisex Salon’ where
she provides hair and skin care
services for the entire family - men,
women and children. :
Theresa and her assistant, Kathy
Miller, of the Centermoreland area,
do manicures, facials, perms, color-
ing and hair stylings. The salon is
open Tuesday through Saturday by
appointment or walk-in. The salon is
also open evening by appointment.
Theresa, a native of Elysburg and
later a resident of Eimira, N.Y.,
always wanted to be a beautician so
when the opportunity presented
itself seven years ago, she decided
to enroll in a school in New York.
Following graduation from the cos-
metology school, Theresa passed
her state examinations in New York
then passed the Pennsylvania exam-
ination for her manager’s license.
She likes being among people and
thoroughly enjoys her new career.
Theresa keeps well-informed of the
newest - styles and products and
attends numerous seminars and
workshops each year. She attends
those held in Pittsburgh, New York
and Hershey as well as various
local ones.
Theresa has a daughter who is
married and lives in Elmira, N.Y.,
and a son who just returned home
after serving five years in the U.S.
Army, three of those years in Ger-
many.
Specializing in perms and correct-
ing hair, Theresa’s favorite prod-
ucts are Nexxus and Sabastian.
Before she opens the salon in the
morning, Theresa also does Home
Health, working with persons who
are recuperating at home, usually

Social Security Manager
Do you receive Social Security or
supplemental security income (SSI)
disability checks? If so, by law your
case must be reviewed periodically
to make sure you continue to meet
all requirements for benefits.
How often your case is reviewed
depends on the nature and severity
of your impairment, the likelihood
for improvement, and other factors.
Your case could be reviewed as
early as six months after entitle-
ment if you have a severe but short-
term impairment that is expected to
improve. If your impairment is
more progressive or less likely to
get better, you case may be
reviewed as infrequently as every
five to seven years.
Major reforms in 1984 greatly
improved and streamlined the
review process. New rules and pro-
cedures ensure that the process is
more responsive and fair to disa-
bled people. There will be greater
uniformity in disability decisions at
levels nationwide.
A key change is the new medical
improvement review standard.
Your benefits generally will con-
tinue unless there is substantial
evidence that your impairment has
improved and you can do substan-
tial gainful work. There are some
exceptions but they will apply in
relatively few instances.
After you get a written notice,
someone will interview you in
person or by phone. He or she will
explain the review process and your
appeal and other rights. You will be
asked how your impairment now
keeps you from working and about
medical treatment and any work
activity since the latest decision.
Your case then will be’ reviewed
by an agency in your State that
makes disability decisions on behalf
of the Social Security Administra-
tion. The people there will request
medical reports from sources that
treated you. If that evidence does
not contain enough information, you
may be asked to take a special
examination or test at Government
expense. It is your responsibility to
cooperate fully and promptly if con-
tacted because the sooner all
needed information is obtained, the
sooner a decision can be made.
You will be notified in writing
when a decision has been made. If
you still meet all requirements,
benefits will continue. If the notice
states you are no longer entitled to
disability benefits, it will explain
why. If you agree with the decision,
you will receive checks for the
decision month and for two months
after that.
If you do not agree with the
decision, you have 60 days to file a
written request for a reconsidera-
tion with the Social ‘Security office.
You have a right to meet face-to-
face with a decisionmaker to
explain in person why you feel you
are still disabled. Also, you can
submit new evidence or information
and have witnesses present.
In addition, you can have your
benefits continued through a deci-
sion by an administrative law judge
if you request this within 10 days
after getting the notice. If your
appeal is unsuccessful, though, you
will be asked to repay the benefits
you have received unless a waiver
is granted.
(For more information about disa-
bility reviews, contact the local
Social Security office. The people
there will be glad to answer any
questions you have.)
