A Riverside Senior's Christmas Wish: Non-Skid socks, a Warm Robe, Someone Who Remembered

Jennifer Lesher still thinks about the veteran with the cats. He had no family, and he spent most of his days inside his apartment with them for company. So when Lesher's team came by, they brought a stack of festively wrapped presents. They set up a small Christmas tree in his living room and decorated it, and they didn't forget a few treats for the cats. It was, he told them afterward, one of the best Christmases he'd had in a long time, not only because someone had thought of him but because someone had thought of his cats, too.

At the same time, she was caring for her husband, who was in hospice care in their living room. She managed both, alone, until she mentioned it to the staff at the Janet Goeske Center. They connected her with someone who cleared the plumbing that same day.

Incumbent Frank Figueroa takes lead in Coachella mayor's race

Coachella Mayor Frank Figueroa has taken a narrow lead in his race to win a full term, according to the latest election results posted Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 11. Councilmember Denise Delgado, who is one of Figueroa's challengers, had been leading until the updated results released by the Riverside County Registrar of Voters. Delgado was in second place in the latest count, just 67 votes behind Figueroa. Jesus "Kino" Gonzalez was in third, 77 votes behind Delgado. The fourth candidate, Francisco Molina, was in a distant last place, more than 1,000 votes behind Gonzalez. Even if she does not win the mayor's seat, Delgado will remain on the council, where her term runs until 2028. Figueroa, however, will not because his council term ends in December 2026. The registrar said 193,500 vote-by-mail ballots and 11,000 conditional voter registration ballots remained to be counted countywide. It did not release a breakdown by city, but about 1% of the county's registered voters live in Coachella. Although he is the incumbent in the race, Figueroa has served as the city's mayor for less than seven months. The council voted to appoint him earlier this year to replace longtime mayor Steven Hernandez, who resigned in
