Weavers ply their craft during a workshop in Fair Oaks. Examples will be on display this weekend.

Luther Findley, 55, hooks up food for his wife, Claire, 59, at their foreclosed Fair Oaks home. Claire is in the late stages of ALS. Bank of America recently said they can stay in the home until her death.

Volunteers offer liquids to runners heading through Fair Oaks Village. Race officials reported that conditions were nearly perfect, with temperatures in the 30s and 40s and virtually no wind.

Luther Findley, on a speaker phone, pleads with a Bank of America representative Dec. 9 for an extension on eviction from the Fair Oaks home he has shared with his wife, Claire, since 1996. "My wife is a quadriplegic, and I have no place to move her," Luther explains. Claire is terminally ill with ALS – amyotrophic lateral sclerosis – and wants to die at home. BofA agreed last week not to evict Luther until after Claire's death.
