Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Ceremony More Inclusive This Year

ARLINGTON, VA For the first time in nearly 100 years, and as part of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Centennial Commemoration, the public will be able to walk on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Plaza and lay flowers in front of the Tomb on November 9-10. The flower ceremony will start at 8 a.m. November 9 with representatives from the Crow

Nation placing flowers at the Tomb. They will recite a prayer in honor of Chief Plenty Coups, who served as a scout for the U.S. Army. Invited by President Warren Harding, Chief Plenty Coups was the sole representative of Native Americans for the dedication of the Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier in 1921. He gave a short speech in his native tongue in honor of the soldier

and the occasion. He placed his war-bonnet and coup stick upon the tomb, which are preserved in a display case in Arlington. For the 100th anniversary of the Tomb, the Chief Plenty Coups Honor Guard is traveling from Montana to Arlington National Cemetery. One of the members of the Chief Plenty See TOMB page 13...

“Ogunquit Spirit of Giving” Collecting for Needy Children OGUNQUIT The Ogunquit Spirit of Giving Committee welcomes all to join in their 17th year of bringing gifts and cheer to needy children throughout the state. Again this year, Spirit of Giving supports the children of two Maine-based organizations: Adoptive and Foster Families of Maine and the Frannie Peabody Center. Adoptive and Foster Families of Maine provides support to families throughout all of the regions of the state. The families all have one thing in common – that they have opened their hearts and homes to children who need loving and safe shelter. Frannie

Peabody Center is Maine’s HIV/ AIDS Service organization. The children affiliated with this program are touched by HIV in some way, whether it be a family member or caregiver with this expensive condition. Ogunquit Spirit of Giving provides gifts to children associated with these programs. In the past, sponsors have purchased, wrapped, and donated specific gifts requested by the children. With an average donation of $50 per child, the group has sponsored 600-650 children in each

schools select through contests or assignments. The ceremony closes with a moment of silence and a retiring of the colors. At Arlington National Cemetery, the Veterans Day National Ceremony is held at 11 a.m., the same time of World War I’s end. It begins with a wreath laying ceremony for the Tomb of the Unknowns and ends with a parade. Further background includes, at the end of World War I hostilities, Germany and the Allies reached an armistice on November 11, 1919 during the 11th hour. The next day, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed Armistice Day, to be filled with solemn pride and reflection for the war’s Veterans. He commissioned celebration with parades and gatherings. The United States Congress did not recognize the ending of World War I until 1926, when it was decided that the anniversary would be officially recognized as a day to remember and thank veterans. Armistice Day was then established on May 13, 1938. At the time, the holiday was only a remembrance of the World War I veterans. After World War II and then the Korean War, this holiday was expanded to include all veterans in 1954.

patch of Maine where they lived along the Penobscot River as theirs. Running down the state like a spine, the river shared its name with the people of the Penobscot Nation, whose ancestral territory included the entire Penobscot watershed, the land upon which the Ames family eventually made their home. The boys’ childhood dreamscape is shattered when a Penobscot teenager sets fire to a shuttered area paper mill on the eve of its possible reopening in an act of defiance seeking to protect the land from further harm. Call it criminal mischief or environmental justice, the fire sets loose a series of long-simmering grievances, ending in a cycle of violence that tears apart the community. A native of Penobscot Bay, Gregory Brown lives in Maine. He is a graduate of the Iowa Writer’s Workshop and winner of the 30 Below Prize from Narrative Magazine. He is the recipient of fellowships from the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference, the Napa Valley Writers’ Conference, the Sewanee Writers’ Conference, and MacDowell.

York Public Library to Host Photography Show in November

Photographs by Annette Brennan (left) and Julee Holcombe (right) to be featured in York Public Library’s exhibit, “Speak, Memory.

YORK A new exhibit of photographs opened at the York Library, entitled “Speak, Memory.” The two photographers, Annette Brennan and Julee Holcombe, engage both memory and photography in very different ways. For some photographers such as Annette Brennan, the truth-telling record of the photograph remains important. The artist’s eye is engaged by the nature of the scene and the patience to wait for the exact moment. Light at just the right time of day, a bird or animal captured just as its pose conveys its essential qualities—photos that capture a fleeting slice of reality and its beauty testify to the photographer’s skill. Taking an opposite tack, Julee Holcombe’s photographic prints are the results of her digital remixing of various components. Her own photographs are taken in far-flung parts of the world; she sometimes borrows

images from artists who practiced in other eras. Some of her digital manipulations deceive the eye while others create the abrupt shifts of a collage. While she hopes to capture the essential qualities of human experience, she does so through meditating on many images, combining them to convey “the complex nature of the human condition.” The results may seem surreal rather than naturalistic. These two artists give us the opportunity to reflect on memory. The naturalistic subject matter preserves the appearance of a bird, a flower, a landscape as we remember it. The photograph triggers memories in the viewer of related scenes and moods. The altered photograph’s task is not to preserve memories but to instigate a chain of associations in the viewer’s mind, akin to the associations our dreams conjure up. These transformed fragments of memories become new ways to remember the world.

Senator Lawrence Receives Community Solar Champion Award ELIOT Senator Mark Lawrence, D-Eliot, joined 24 individuals and organizations across the United States in receiving the 2021 Community Solar Champion Award from the Coalition for Community Solar Access (CCSA). CCSA is a national coalition of businesses and nonprofits working to expand customer choice and access to solar energy. The recipients of the 2021 Community Solar Champion Award were chosen based on their dedication to supporting and expanding community solar programs around the country. Community solar projects serve an important role in expanding the use of renewable energy around Maine. People who use community solar have the opportunity to enjoy equal access to the economic and environmental benefits of solar power without the requirement

of owning a home or living in a single family unit. “I am honored to be named one of CCSA’s Community Solar Champions for 2021,” said Sen. Lawrence. “It is incredibly important that we find practical, sustainable ways for all Mainers to take advantage of the benefits of solar power. Working with CCSA this session to get closer to realizing that goal was an honor.” Lawrence was a cosponsor of Maine’s landmark, bipartisan solar energy legislation in 2019 and leaders on Maine’s Net Energy Billing Legislative Subcommittee. Lawrence is chair of the Joint Standing Committee on Energy, Utilities and Technology. He is serving his sixth nonconsecutive term in the Maine State Senate, representing Senate District 35, which includes the towns of Eliot, Kittery, Ogunquit, South Berwick, York and part of Berwick.

Sevigney-Lyons Receives 2021 Best Places to Work WELLS Sevigney-Lyons Insurance Agency was recently named as one of the 2021 Best Places to Work in Maine. Sevigney-Lyons Insurance Agency is happy to have been selected as a leading place to work in the state of Maine. The agency is one of 100 total organizations to be recognized across the state. Owners, Lucas and Jonathan Sevigney are delighted to have been ranked as the 6th best place to work in the state from the 33 employers to be honored in the small-sized business category (15-49 employees). Best Places to Work in Maine was created in 2006 by the Maine State Council of the Society of Resource Management (MESHRM) and Best Companies Group. The list; which is published annually, recognizes companies who have consistently demonstrated a commitment to an outstanding workplace environment.

Sevigney-Lyons Insurance Agency owners Lucas Sevigney (left) and Jonathan Sevigney (right).

For selection, SevigneyLyons participated in a two-part process.

Seacoast Garden Club Blossoms with Numerous Awards KENNEBUNKPORT The Seacoast Garden Club of Kennebunkport recently received numerous awards for activities the club pursued during the past year, including the Club of Distinction award for “accomplishments in all areas of garden club activities.” Because of its work designing and maintaining seven area gardens, the club also garnered the Kathleen Marty Award for Civic Development. The beds tended by members are located at the monument in Kennebunkport’s Dock Square, the Community House on Temple Street, the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library, the Kennebunkport post office and the Oaks Neck peninsula overlooking the ocean at the intersection of Gooch’s and Middle Beaches. Kennebunk garden locations tended by club members include town hall, along with the Faerie Garden and “Touch and Sniff” garden at the Kennebunk Free Library. The club was also recognized for members’ assistance at the Habitat for Humanity REstore in Kennebunk and for planting and weeding raised garden beds at Habitat homes in the area.

The Stephanie Ann Smith Award for “active garden therapy” was another recognition for the Seacoast Garden Club. Every December club members make and decorate boxwood Christmas trees and each May they create floral May baskets, all of which are then distributed to local health facilities, homebound residents and libraries. Additionally, several members plant and maintain window boxes at the Center (formerly known as the Senior Center) in Kennebunk. These activities are considered “active garden therapy” which clinched this award for the club. Finally, the SCG won second place in the 2020 yearbook awards “for clubs with memberships of 70-99.” The club’s 42 page booklet lists meeting dates, monthly programs, members’ names and addresses along with other key garden club information and photos. The Seacoast Garden Club draws members from Kennebunkport, Kennebunk and surrounding towns. After a year’s hiatus during the pandemic, the club plans to resume monthly meetings for the remainder of 2021 through June, 2022. Anyone interested in

Lives and Legacies Celebrated at Maine State Chamber PORTLAND At its annual dinner meeting on October 28 in Portland, the Maine State Chamber of Commerce celebrated the lives and legacies of two Maine leaders: the late Harold Alfond, philanthropist and Dexter Shoe Company founder; and the late David Flanagan, who most recently served as executive chairman of the Board of Directors of Central Maine Power and AVANGRID, Inc. The evening featured remarks by Governor Janet Mills, a keynote speech by the head of the Harold

Alfond Foundation, video tributes to Alfond and Flanagan, and the debut of the third edition of the chamber’s twice-yearly magazine, OneVoice Maine. In brief remarks at a pre-dinner reception, Governor Mills first thanked the Maine State Chamber and its members for working with her “every step of the way … to save the lives and livelihoods of Maine people” during the pandemic. Gov. Mills reflected on Harold Alfond and David Flanagan, sharing that they were “a vital part of the community of the

State of Maine,” adding the hope that their legacies “inspire thousands more to live those values.” After opening remarks at the dinner by Maine State Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Dana Connors, Maine State Chamber Board Chair Clif Greim of Frosty Hill Consulting made welcoming remarks, saying of Alfond and Flanagan, “Their leadership and vision have left their mark across Maine in countless ways, both big and small, See CHAMBER page 30...

Veteran’s Day Book Talk NORTH BERWICK In November 1945 when Lt. Edward C. Dahlgren stepped off the train in Caribou having survived a combat experience that should have killed him but didn’t, he wore a chest full of medals, carried a heart full of sorrow for his men who never came home, and was faced with the daunting task of finding a way to live a life worthy of his survival. On Tuesday, November 9, author, Dr. Susan Daigneault, will tell the story of her dad’s military life and his struggles with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in WWII.

purify themselves and the things around them, Goes Ahead explained. “The smoke from the smudging is a way of lifting our prayers and good thoughts up to our Creator,” he said. Goes Ahead said he hopes those attending will ask questions and learn about the significant number of Native Americans who served the nation, following Chief Plenty Coups’ example. “Chief Plenty Coups prayed for peace for both races,” he said. “He had a very high level of respect for the warriors laid to rest in Arlington. I hope that others learn the role that Natives have played and still play in the Armed Forces. From that early time, the Native people have enlisted, joined and

fought for this country. I hope that strengthens our bond with non-Natives.” “It is overwhelming in the sense that my patriotism in my service to this country and to the U.S. flag itself means so much to me,” he said. “To know I’ll be in the presence of all these fallen warriors, that will be an honor. My love and devotion to this country is overwhelming.” To learn more, view the Chief Plenty Coups Honor Guard on Facebook at www. facebook.com/pages/category/ nonprofit-organization/chief -plenty-coups-honor-guard-1007 98398941183/.

Adornment Exhibit Explores Tattoos, Clothing and Jewelry

KENNEBUNK The Brick Store Museum, 117 Main Street, Kennebunk, explores three forms of adornment in its new exhibitions, covering everything from tattoos to clothing and jewelry. The trio of exhibitions, which opened in early October, run through the end of December and are open every day except Mondays. The exhibitions include “The Changing Silhouette,” which showcases the Museum’s collection of historic clothing (both men’s and women’s) to discuss changing societal styles and shapes over time; “All That Sparkles: From the Museum’s Jewelry Collection” features pieces that once adorned historic Kennebunk citizens, from engagement rings

to necklaces and even military decorations. The third exhibit in the trio, “Stories in Ink: The History & Modern Art of Tattooing” recounts the history of the practice of tattooing then transitions into studying the artwork of current artists throughout York and Cumberland counties. All three exhibitions study the human practice of adornment through engaging activities, lively artifacts and discussion around how we decorate ourselves through history. The Museum is open six days per week (closed only Mondays), and offers free admission to everyone on Tuesdays. More information can be found at www.brickstoremuseum.org.

Matilda, a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence, and telekinetic powers, is unloved by her self-involved parents, who barely spend time with her. Her Headmistress, Mrs. Trunchbull, also mistreats her, but armed with a vivid imagination, Matilda finds solace in stacks of library books.

Holy Spirit Parish to Help Area Seniors with “Puzzle Project” WELLS In an effort to help elderly community members in area assisted-living facilities, middle school students at Holy Spirit Parish in Kennebunk and Wells will be collecting puzzles, particularly 100-300 piece count, at St. Mary Church, 236 Eldridge Road, Wells and St. Martha Church, 30 Portland Road, Kennebunk, on November 6-7. “The benefits of jigsaw puzzles for senior citizens are well documented,” said Carolyn Houston, director of faith formation at the parish. “Working on a jigsaw puzzle activates several cognitive functions in a senior citizen’s brain.” The middle schoolers will man baskets in the narthexes of both churches to collect the puzzles, which can be dropped off before, during, or after any parish Mass this weekend: Sat-

urday at 4 p.m., Sunday at 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. in Wells, and Saturday at 4 p.m., and Sunday at 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. in Kennebunk. “Because we know how frustrating it is to try to put together a puzzle that doesn’t have all of the pieces, the middle schoolers are asking for new or gently used puzzles that have all of the pieces,” said Houston. In addition to being a beautiful act of service, the students know what a difference the project can make for recipients. “Puzzles provide stress relief, assist with concentration, and improve motor skills,” said Houston. “We are so grateful for any contributions that parishioners and community members can make.” For more information, call 207-646-5605 or email carolyn. houston@portlanddiocese.org.

~ Ask The Computer Lady ~

Dear Computer Lady, I just purchased a new Windows 10 computer and found Bluetooth turned on without my consent. I want a secure machine and don’t use Bluetooth. It’s turned off now, but I want to delete this service since I never use it. How do I delete it completely? Thanks, Angie Dear Angie, Bluetooth is made up of two components. First is a hardware component, usually a chip on the motherboard, or an external USB device. Second is the bluetooth software. Bluetooth is commonly used to share data between devices. Some common uses are, wireless speakers, wireless keyboard and/or mouse, a wireless headset, some printers, and even a selfie stick. If you have a cordless phone in your house, it is most likely using bluetooth technology. You have already turned bluetooth off on your computer, which is great if you are not using it, but to delete the service completely you would need to remove the hardware chip and that might not be possible since it is probably a component on your motherboard. The next best option would probably be to open the device manager on your computer, right-click on the blue-

tooth device and click “Disable Device”. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, Is there a way to copy my messages from someone that emailed me in Outlook? I saved them to OneNote ,but I cant copy them to a flash drive. I hope you can help, Thanks Billy Dear Billy, There are a couple of ways you can save these messages. First, you can export the page in OneNote to the flash drive. 1. Open OneNote to the page you want to export. 2. Click “File” in the menu bar, then click “Export”. 3. Click to select what you want to export, either Page, Section, or the entire notebook. 4. Click to select the format you want to export in. PDF is probably a good choice for most situations. 5. Click the “Export” button. 6. In the next dialog box, select the location you want to save the messages to, in your case it would be the flash drive, and click the “Save” button. Saving them from Outlook depends on what version of Outlook you are using, I can’t tell from your email if you are using Outlook.com or Outlook that is part of Microsoft Office. If you are using the web interface (Outlook.com) I don’t see a way to save an email to your flash drive, but you could

WASHINGTON, D.C. The Office of U.S. Senator Angus King (I-ME) recently released the October edition of Senator King’s “Inside Maine” podcast, featuring a timely discussion on the threats that cyberattacks pose to Americans’ day-to-day activities and how to identify and avoid disinformation online. Senator King was joined by Peter Warren Singer, a cyberdefense strategist, a fellow at New America, and a bestselling author; they discuss the serious national security concerns of our increasingly interconnected world. Senator King is a leading voice on cybersecurity issues in the Senate and co-chairs the Cyberspace Solarium Commission (CSC), an ongoing bipartisan effort that published a comprehensive report on America’s cyberspace posture, and secured 25 cybersecurity recommendations in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2021.

“America is fortunate to be one of the most connected countries in the world, unfortunately this has also meant we’re asymmetrically vulnerable to cyberthreats,” said Senator King. “As I discussed with Peter Warren Singer on this month’s episode of Inside Maine, everything from the phones in our pockets to oil and gas pipelines are being targeted by bad actors, and we need to respond accordingly. We have made progress on these threats in recent years, but a full response requires a whole-of-government approach, partnership with the private sector, and increased awareness from all Americans. Peter is one of the most thoughtful, knowledgeable, and frank voices on the serious challenges of the 21st century, and it was a true pleasure to talk to him about what we’re up against and how best to defend ourselves.” Peter Warren Singer is a strategist, former government consultant, and author, current-

Please help, Carol Dear Carol, There is no “Save” button in OneNote because everything you put in your notebook is automatically saved. Not only is it automatically saved, but if you have saved the notebook in OneDrive, it is automatically synced between devices. I love this feature because it means that I can type up an outline in OneNote on my desktop computer, and it is instantly available on my phone, tablet and laptop computer when I get to class.

ly employed at the New America Foundation. Singer is best known for his work in the defense sector in various agencies and operational environments, including a period serving on the Obama Campaign’s defense policy task force, as well as authoring literature on pressing defense issues currently used by the U.S. Armed Forces. His research focuses on the intersection of technology and changing conflict. Singer was described in the Wall Street Journal as “the premier futurist in the national-security environment.” Singer has been named by the Smithsonian as one of the nation’s 100 leading innovators, by Defense News as one of the 100 most influential people in defense issues, by Foreign Policy to their Top 100 Global Thinkers List. He also wrote the opening page of the Cyberspace Solarium Commission’s recent report, a fiction piece titled “A Warning from Tomorrow.” The CSC was established by statute in the 2019 NDAA, officially launched in April 2019, and will continue to execute its statutory mission through December 2021 – most recently announcing its “progress report” with 75 percent of its recommendations either having become policy or nearly there. The Commissioner convenes nearly every Monday that Congress is in session, and its staff has conducted more than 400 engagements, drawing upon the expertise of corporate leaders, federal, state and local officials, academics, and cybersecurity experts. The meetings and the ensuing report sought to strengthen America’s posture in cyberspace and identify opportunities to improve our national preparedness to defend ourselves against cyberattacks.

FINANCE & CAREER Fair Chance in Employment Labor Law in Effect

AUGUSTA Multiple updates to Maine labor law went into effect on Monday, October 18, including ‘An Act Relating to Fair Chance in Employment.’ This new law prohibits employers from inquiring about an individual’s criminal history on an initial employment application and from stating in employment advertisements that an individual with a criminal history may not apply.

An employer may inquire about a prospective employee’s criminal history during an interview or once the prospective employee has been determined otherwise qualified for the position. If an employer inquires about a prospective employee’s criminal record, the prospective employee, if still eligible for the position under applicable federal or state law, must be afforded an opportunity to explain the information and the circumstances regarding any convic-

tions, including post-conviction rehabilitation. There are exceptions if a background check is required or if it would be inappropriate for an individual with a certain criminal history to apply. The Maine CareerCenters have a universal application that employers can use either as their actual application or as an example when creating their own. More information about this and other labor law updates can be found at www.

$139M for Businesses & Workers

LEWISTON Governor Janet Mills announced the Maine Jobs & Recovery Plan’s first investments in Maine people, small businesses, and workforce, including $20 million for a new small business grant program, $39 million to help lower monthly health insurance premiums, and $80 million to replenish the Maine Unemployment Trust fund and mitigate tax hikes for small businesses. The $139 million in investments come on the first day that the legislation enacting the Governor’s plan takes effect, reflecting the Governor’s commitment to delivering immediate support for Maine’s small businesses and workers as the state continues to battle the pandemic and its impact on Maine’s economy. The Maine Jobs & Recovery Plan is the Governor’s plan, approved by the Legislature, to invest nearly $1 billion in American Rescue Plan funds to achieve three goals: immediate economic recovery from the pandemic; long-term

economic growth for Maine; and infrastructure revitalization. It draws heavily on recommendations from the Governor’s Economic Recovery Committee and the State’s 10-Year Economic Development Strategy, transforming them into real action to improve the lives of Maine people and strengthen the economy. The Governor announced that her Administration is launching the Maine Jobs & Recovery Small Business Grant Program. The Maine Department of Economic and Community Development is putting forward $5 million of the $20 million allocated to the program in total for grants targeted at supporting capital intensive businesses that still need immediate short-term help to sustain operations. More specifically, the $5 million will be put towards expense-based grant relief to help businesses and non-profits with significant expenses related to loans and interest they incurred in order to sustain operations. The loans must be in deferral as a direct result of the pandemic and

the business must demonstrate at least 20 percent lost revenue in the year 2021. Applications for the program will open November 1. The remaining $15 million will then be made available in April 2022 in order for businesses and non-profits to easily utilize tax returns to demonstrate financial impact of the pandemic on their businesses and, therefore, qualify for a funding based on need. This approach – stabilizing businesses most in need now followed by larger grants later on – was developed by DECD in conjunction with the business community. This new program comes on top of the more than $273 million the Administration has already provided in Federal support to 5,224 businesses and nonprofits during the pandemic. For more information about the Small Business Health Insurance Premium Relief Program, go to www.maine.gov.

MDOL works to connect employers and job seekers who experience barriers to finding employment, such as justice-involved individuals. The department works collaboratively with the Maine Department of Corrections (DOC) to help individuals currently and formerly incarcerated and those on probation to prepare for jobs through preemployment skillsbased learning, connections to employers, and CareerCenter support services. In recent years the DOL and DOC have co-hosted events for employers inside correctional facilities, with the goal of providing a better understanding of justice involvement, how to hire incarcerated individuals through work release programs, and about bonding and tax credits for hiring those post release. The Work Opportunity Tax Credit Program is a federal tax credit that offers a tax incentive for private sector businesses to hire individuals from targeted

groups that have consistently faced significant barriers to employment. If interested, call the MDOL at 207-623-7981 and ask to speak with the WOTC Coordinator. TTY users call Maine Relay 711. The Federal Bonding Program was designed to provide insurance for employers to reduce any perceived financial risk of hiring someone. There are no out of pocket expenses for the employer because bonds are provided free of charge and carry a $0 deductible. There is also no cost to the job applicant. For more detailed information and eligibility requirements, visit the Federal Bonding Program website at www.bonds4jobs.com or contact your local CareerCenter, such as York County CareerCenter in Springvale at 207-324-5460.

Spain has collaborated with over a dozen artists who share his passion to fight breast cancer. “They have all given us a special piece they have created for the INSPIRE show and are helping us in our efforts to raise money,” he said. Many of the artists have been personally touched by the disease including Peter Sheppard whose mother is currently battling breast cancer. In addition to fundraising, Spain is urging people to get screened for cancer. Due to the pandemic, 41% of Americans delayed medical care including their annual cancer screenings. Even before the pandemic, only 63% of women were up to date on their annual mammograms. Studies showed that Black women are 40% more likely to die of breast cancer than White women.

Expressions of Gratitude Lift Spirits While people feel stressed during holiday season, a dose of gratitude could be the boost families need to lift spirits, according to Jill Walls, a Ball State University professor. “Gratitude is a sincere expression of thankfulness and appreciation,” said Walls, professor of early childhood youth and family studies in Teachers College. “When we step into a grateful mindset, it increases our positive perceptions of our lives.” Researchers report a coned 281,500 women and 2,800 men in the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and an estimated 44,100 will die from the disease this year. In Maine, 1,430 women will be diagnosed this year, and 190 will die from the disease. For the first time ever, breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide among women.

nection between gratitude and higher levels of happiness, life satisfaction, and health for people of all ages, including those with pre-existing health conditions, Walls notes. “It literally uplifts our mood, which can strengthen our immune system, among other benefits,” she said. “It feels good to be appreciated; a genuine expression of gratitude can motivate future behavior and enhance relationships.” Walls has several suggestions to cultivate gratitude this holiday season: Write letters: Children and adults can send letters of gratitude to family and friends. There’s something special about receiving a handwritten note of appreciation. If children are too young to write, ask them to draw a picture to symbolize their gratitude. Start a gratitude journal: Even if what a person writes is not shared with other people, expressing gratitude in written form generates a positive mindset. Reading notes of gratitude can lift your mood. Gratitude calendar: For each day of the month, record one thing you are thankful for. This is an easy activity that families can do together. Think positively: Simply take time to think about what you are grateful for, which shifts our mindset to a positive place. Just say it: Although you might say the words “thank you” often, don’t underestimate the value of verbally expressing gratitude. Be specific about what you are thankful for to let the person know why they are valued and appreciated. “As we are approaching the season of giving thanks, families can be intentional about incorporating gratitude into their daily lives and holiday traditions,” Walls said.

David Alan Coggins, 92 WELLS – David Alan Coggins passed away on October 5, 2021 at the Sedgewood Commons Nursing Home in Falmouth after a period of declining health. He was born in Pittsfield, MA, on August 12, 1929 to Wallace and Alice Chandler Coggins who were originally from Maine. He was about ten years old when they moved to Martha’s Vineyard, MA, where his family owned and operated a Ben Franklin store. He attended Suffolk University and Bentley University in Massachusetts, majoring in accounting and finance.

Dave was a military veteran who served in both the Korean and Vietnam wars. He worked at the Coast Guard Supply Center in Brooklyn, NY, until his retirement in 1989. In 1991 he moved with his wife and son to Wells. Dave loved his family, his country, and was an avid sports fan. He had five siblings, Benjamin, Robert, Dana, Beverly, and Barbara, all who predeceased him. He is survived by his wife Mary and son Jeffrey Alan Coggins, his remaining in-laws, and many nieces and nephews. A memorial service will be held on Martha’s Vineyard at a later date. • • • • • • • • • •

As my friend Todd Van Beck recently wrote in an article: Flowers are sent to funerals for several reasons. Flowers are a means of expression. It is often difficult for those mourning a death to put feelings into words. Flowers are a visual expression of love, sympathy, and respect. They are a way of lending support and sharing the burden of grief. In addition to sending flowers to the funeral, there is a growing trend to send flowers to the home of the bereaved after the service. Some people also send flowers to the church in memory of the deceased. Flowers create a background of warmth and beauty which adds to the dignity and consolation of the service. Those who have attended services where there were no flowers have noted that something was

missing – that the funeral was depressing. The funeral meets the bereaved’s need for support. Death throws people into despair and depression by separating them from one who has provided love, companionship, and security. The funeral and customs provide the means by which those close to them can give their support and share their suffering. The funeral period provides for the expression of sorrow. Only through talking about the past can the bereaved person realize the extent of the relationship with the deceased, and accept the loss and suffering. Only through weeping and talking to good listeners can they release their grief and feelings of guilt and hostility. Experts in grief therapy believe that it can be expressed best through rites, rituals, and ceremonies. The ceremony deals primarily with intellectual concepts and doesn’t fully engage the

In addition, Ted is survived by his sisters, Laura Ann Baker of Gardner, MA, and Rita Ellen Coughlin and her husband Bill of Clinton, MA; and his brother Chris Wilson of Gresham, OR, and his fiancé Lori Christian. He also leaves his sister-in-law Stephanie Deveau of Framingham, MA, and dear friend Sr. Jacquelyn McCarthy of Newton, MA, along with many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

to York Beach, where they had vacationed regularly throughout the years. Never being one to retire, Ted worked many years for The Stage Neck Inn and Starkey Ford, both located in York. They eventually moved to Wells, where he finally retired. In 2015, he and Estelle moved in with their oldest daughter. Ted was a passionate sports fan and loved all his Boston teams. He was an avid runner and participated in many races throughout New England, including seven Boston Marathons in the 1980s. His love of running and fitness continued through the years, and he was a fixture on Mile Road in Wells alongside his friend Joe Taranova. Ted is survived by his loving wife, Estelle. He was the devoted father of Laureen Wilson of Biddeford, Diane Barnum and her husband Steven of Wells, Gary and his wife Susan, of Vancouver, WA, and Gregory and his partner David Nadeau of Kennebunk, He was the beloved grandfather (“Boompa”) to Kimberly (Barnum) Woods and her husband Benjamin of South Berwick, Keri (Barnum) Rinaldi and her husband Fernando of Lyman, Rebecca (Wilson) Kramer and her husband Ben of Greenwood, MO, Christianna (Wilson) Ferguson and her husband Shawn of Vancouver, WA, and Charlotte Wilson of

There are three points to be stressed, finally, in connection with the tradition of funeral flowers. First, the role of flowers are both symbolic and aesthetic. They add great value to the richness and meaning of the ritual. Second, flowers represent sympathy extended to the bereaved. Third, flowers are sent to both the living and the dead. They are sent to the living as comfort and as tokens of respect for the deceased. We, at the JS Pelkey & Son and the Bernier Funeral Homes, hold the value of the work our local florists do in very high regard. We always encourage the families we serve to contact a local florist directly. Certainly there are national floral outlets that can be reached with a simple Google search but, honestly, the quality of these products are often substandard. Simply click the “Send Flowers” tab on our website and you will be directed to our list of trusted florists. Please call us about any questions with which we may help.

...WILSON from page 22 In lieu of flowers, the family wishes any donations to be made to Bethany Healthcare Center, 97 Bethany Road, Framingham, MA 01702, or www. bethanyhealthcare.org. • • • • • • • • • •

Mary G. Wyman, 89 NORTH BERWICK – Mary G. (Chick) (Edson) Wyman went to be with her Lord and Savior peacefully on November 1, 2021, with her son by her side. She was born December 10, 1931, in Casco, daughter of Floyd and Ruth (Chute) Chick, and a 1950 graduate of Casco High School. She married George Edson in 1950, raising their three children in Casco. Mary was a wonderful home-

maker and talented seamstress. She and George were members of the Spur’s Corner Church in Otisfield where she was a pianist. After the death of her husband George in 1987, Mary met her second husband Donald Wyman in 1988, relocating to North Berwick. Mary was a member of the Bethel Christian Church in North Berwick for 30 years where she also played the piano. Mary was a true and digni-

fied lady who loved her family and her church. She enjoyed her flower gardens and appreciated a good book. She and Don loved their camping trips to Naples and fall trips to Dolly Copp Campground in the White Mountains. Mary loved traveling, scenic drives, and she could give directions to just about anywhere. In 2019, she moved to Ashton Gardens Senior Living in Portland where she made many wonderful friends, including Robert Gale, the special gentleman that lived next door. She was predeceased by her first husband George Edson in 1987; stepdaughter Donna (Wyman) Stewart in 1992; sister Margaret Oakes in 2018; second husband Donald L. Wyman in 2018; and son Richard Edson in 2021. Surviving are her daughter Nancy Leighton and her husband Gary of Williamsburg,

VA; son Robert Edson and his wife Pamela of Gray; brother Daniel Chick and his wife Patty of Gray; daughter-in-law Roberta Edson of Bradenton, FL; 10 grandchildren, Jerred, Kerrie, Daniel, Cressi, Kate, Matthew, Andrew, Rachel, David, and Amy; 11 great-grandchildren; two great-great grandchildren; brothers- and sisters-in-law, William Wyman, Charles and Carol Kezar, and Sherry Johnson, all of North Berwick, and Kenneth Wyman of Wells. The family is especially grateful to Bethilda Knudsen of Westbrook for her kindness and support. She and Mary loved each other like sisters. Funeral services will be held Saturday, November 6 at 11 a.m. at the Bethel Christian Church, 129 Lower Main Street, North Berwick. Private burial will be Monday, November 8 in the Tenney Hill Cemetery in

Casco. Friends who wish may contribute to either the Bethel Christian Church Sunday School Program, P.O. Box 537, North Berwick, ME 03906, or donate online to Our Daily Bread Devotional Ministry at http://donations.ourdailybread.org. Arrangements are entrusted to the Johnson Funeral Home in North Berwick where condolences may be expressed at www. johnsonfuneralhomeme.com.

application and once approved, you’ll be invited to meet the kitties that would be a good match for you.

~ Pets ~ Safe Haven Humane Society WELLS Happy November to everyone! We had a scarier time than usual this Halloween when we found our store’s garage/receiving area flooded. It seems the cracked cement floor couldn’t prevent the water from seeping in. We weren’t the only ones who had flooding and some even lost power. This brings to mind to be mindful of seasonal changes and what can happen to all of us, in-

cluding the creatures we love. Soon the ground will freeze and we’ll see more strays roaming, looking for winter housing under porches, in barns, culverts and even holes under sheds. Please be alert to any signs of strays looking hungry or desperate, and please don’t ignore their needs. Which leads us to Athena. This young, black kitty was found by the side of a road. This kitty was friendly, could be picked up,

KENNEBUNK May we introduce you, to Abbie! Abbie (14) and her sister Lillie (13) came to AWS earlier this fall. They love spending time together and taking slow romps in the woods. Every leaf is a joy to discover and must be sniffed, investigated and sometimes even rolled in! As they are in their golden years, they are looking for a quiet and peaceful home. Most importantly they must find a home together. Please visit www.animalwelfaresociety.org/ adoption/dogs/ to learn more about this special pair. Check out the other dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, mice, and guinea pigs we also have! We hope you find as joy in every leaf and every moment, like our sweet Abbie does.

appeared healthy and in good condition, but was not microchipped. Despite attempts to find her owner she remained unclaimed and was brought to Safe Haven. Athena has been very sweet, less than a year old, shy with strangers at first but once she’s comfortable, you can pick her up and pet her. She’s enjoying sharing a room with several younger kitties so she seems to like other cats. We have no idea if she was abandoned or lost but we want to make sure the rest of her life story is a happy one. Athena was not spayed, and luckily is not pregnant. This week, she’ll be getting her needed surgery and will be ready to adopt in a couple weeks. We’re starting the search for her forever home early, so she doesn’t have to wait an extra day to find happiness. If you or someone you know has a quiet, loving family life that could welcome Athena, please call 207-646-1611. Our thrift/vintage and

~ Classifieds & News ~ Remembering Yesterday’s Heroes

By J. G. Fabiano The school day started like all school days are supposed to start. The bell rings and everyone is asked to stand to recite the “Pledge of Allegiance”. Every year fewer students stand and most recite nothing. Recently I even noticed that many of my students don’t even bother standing. I have to ask them to stand in order to honor the men and women of our nation who lost their lives in order to give us what we have today. The other day a young woman told me that I had no right to ask her to stand. She told me that she was a pacifist and that any inference to nationalism should not be respected. The class became quiet wondering how I would react to this newest of rebellions over what I believe is supposed to be right. I didn’t become angry. I only became quiet. After a few

moments I told my class to listen to a story that I was told when I was very young. It concerned a man and a war. The class stayed quiet and attentive realizing that what I was about to tell them was important to me and could be important to them. Even the young woman who began the rebellion decided that it was important to let me speak. I started out by describing a young man who was a fine athlete. He was a varsity football and basketball captain at the University of Vermont. In 1941, he played second base for Montpelier in the Northern League that was considered part of the minor league of major league baseball. In high school sports writers chose him for the All New England basketball team in 1940 and he had been picked for the All Conference football team the year before. He had the world by its butt. But, then World War II exploded on our nation and like most other young men and women of that time, he decided to defend his country. He became a radioman for the United States Navy and he covered a lot of territory. This was happening to a young man

who did not get out of New England. His first trip took him to Casablanca and Gibraltar. Off Gibraltar his ship and convoy were scheduled for England loaded with phosphorus. This trip took him into the North Sea that was full of German U-boats but was protected by Allied destroyers. During the journey his ship lost the convoy in the upper North Sea and was spotted by a German scout. Everyone on board thought the war had ended for them when a patrol of Royal Air Force fighter planes guided them back to the convoy. They made it to London where he promptly ran into his first air raid. The ship then went into the Mediterranean Sea unloading munitions and other war supplies at Gila and Sciglotti. Sciglotti was still littered with German and Italian dead, mostly Italian. Booby traps were everywhere. The favorite booby trap of the enemy was the German Luger. When picked up they exploded killing anyone and everyone who was near. Enemy snipers were everywhere and in the town the enemy disguised themselves as natives trying to lure the servicemen to their death. Everyone in my room was now intently listening to my story. They also seemed a bit perplexed because they did not understand how I knew this particular story so well. The ship now filled with American soldiers headed toward a place called Salerno. Everyone aboard knew that

action was soon to be experienced. Halfway there the news came over the ship’s radio that Italy had surrendered. That night planes swarmed over in the blackness heading toward the Gulf of Salerno. Whether friend or enemy no one knew. In the early morning the ship traveled up the Gulf of Salerno. It streamed along the instep of the Italian boot and headed toward a long gentle curve of the beach. Naples was a short hike to the northwest with Rome a step above in the same direction. Then it happened. Looking out at the ocean, our hero watched a plane overhead. He then noticed a flaming dart leave the plane. It whistled down and hit the ship in front of his literally splitting it in two. Men shouted and waved in the water. Some floated silently. Many went down with the ship. Small rescue crafts picked up as many as they could. In the white sands the Germans were waiting. Word came back to the ship that the battle was going badly. The Americans were being driven back toward the beach. Many on the ship were handed guns and told to go ashore in an attempt to turn the tide. The enemy was counter-attacking and wedging their way toward the sea. On the ship everyone was told to get up steam and be ready to pull out at a half-hour’s notice. Pale faced men spoke grimly of another Dunkirk. A huge flight of bombers came out of the morning sun. They were American. The air force began to carry the ball. All of the men on the ship cheered as they heard the planes drop their bombs on the German positions. The bombing of these positions was evening up

the fight. That night the enemy started going after the cruisers. Our hero on watch saw a flaming plane, its pilot fighting for control, falls toward his ship. It came close enough to make him crouch on the deck and it hit the water beneath him with a hissing roar. During that same night the British battleship, The Rodney, steamed into the harbor and immediately pounded the German positions on shore. The British army also came in from the south to help out the Americans. Finally word came out of the hills that the attack was holding its own. The last of the available reinforcements were sent in. The Luttwaffe then threw the last of its furry at the ships in the gulf. These same ships were firing at anything that flew. American transport planes dropped paratroops behind the German lines. The sound of the fighting started to dwindle. Tired men shook themselves and tried to piece their thought together. The Salerno area was starting to become quiet. The ship finally left the beaches of Salerno Bay with wounded and with survivors of the battle that had just taken place. Everyone on board attempted to catch up on their sleep. The ship was also tired like its crew with its plates bent and bombs exhausted. But, she was still seaworthy and headed for home. Most on board can’t get enough sleep. When they are not sleeping they just sit around and listen to the quiet. Our hero will never forget the memories of See HEROES page 30...

~ Sports & News ~ and friend of David Flanagan’s, who served on the Harold Alfond Foundation Board of Trustees. In his remarks, Powell also reflected on Alfond and Flanagan, saying “As seemingly different as these two men were, they shared two fundamental passions: they loved to give, and they loved to get things done. They both shared a life-long commitment to giving, be it commerce, public service, or philanthropy. They gave for the good of their neighbors, their towns, their state, and especially for those least advantaged – the little guy, they would say. And getting things done was their forte.” The chamber also presented the third edition of its twice-yearly magazine, OneVoice Maine. The edition, along with a video tribute, centers on Harold Alfond’s leadership and philanthropic contributions to Maine. It includes a message from U.S. Senator Susan Collins; stories of appreciation from many recipients of Alfond’s generosity; and the transformative effect his philanthropic investments in health care, education, Maine youth, and Maine communities have had throughout the state. A second video presented at the dinner paid tribute to David Flanagan, who lost his battle with cancer on October 13. In the video, Maine State Cham-

ber President Dana Connors shared recent interviews with several prominent Maine leaders including U.S. Senators Collins and Angus King, Governor Mills, former Governors Joseph Brennan and John Baldacci, and others, about Flanagan’s impact on them professionally and personally and his lasting impact on Maine. Connors also met with David Flanagan and his wife, Kaye, at their Manchester home in early September. Excerpts from their conversation are included in the video. Kaye Flanagan, who made brief remarks at the event, and Susan Alfond, daughter of Harold Alfond, each accepted the Maine State Chamber’s highest recognition, the Dirigo Award, on behalf of David Flanagan and Harold Alfond. Since 2016, the chamber has presented the award to individuals or organizations whose leadership and commitment to economic growth in Maine is exceptional. The award is named after Maine’s motto, “Dirigo,” Latin for “I Lead.” A video recording of the evening’s program and both video tributes are available at www. mainechamber.org/am2021.html.

...HEROES from page 28 his time at Salerno Bay. His most vivid memory will always be the faces of American soldiers, his friends and neighbors, smiling as they went into action and possible death. He calls it courage in the face of hopelessness. Our hero will always remember these things. How could he ever forget them? At the end of the story, my class was very quiet. The young woman who professed peace by refusing to recite “The Pledge of Allegiance” broke the silence by asking me how I knew so much about this man. I smiled and told her that he was my father. After that time none of my students ...HEALTH from page 21 Maine Department of Health and Human Services to supporting the health of our state’s children and families.” The Maine Department of Health and Human Services serves approximately one-third of the people of Maine, providing health care and social service support to children, families, the elderly, the disabled, people with mental illness or substance use disorders, and those living below the poverty level.
