Upcoming Events in October, November
Will Help Stock Shelves, Feed Hungry
By J.D. O’Gara
One in six people in Massachusetts
has food insecurity,
according to Susan Dietrich,
director of the Medway Village
Food Pantry, which, for a small location
open just once a week (Saturday
mornings, from 9-10 a.m.)
inside Medway Village Church
at 170 Village Street, is making a
difference. On average, this little
food pantry, which shares a small
space with The Good Shepherd
Nursery School, distributes about
65,000 pounds of food each year,
and a third of that comes from
community members, local businesses
and food drives. Two of
those community drives are coming
up.
On October 13, for example,
Team Rice will set up a small
table outside The Muffin House
to take donations for the food
pantry.
“Some people donate goods,
but they prefer money as they
can actually get a lot more with
their connection to the Greater
Boston Food Bank – more than
we would be able to get. Anyone
who donates gets a ticket for a
free small hot or iced coffee, just
as a thank you, and maybe (the
food pantry) will get increased
awareness,” says Kristen Rice,
of Team Rice, which consists of
four family members. Last year
she says, they brainstormed on
ways to give back to the community.

continued from page 1
Prokes has directed four other
shows, including The Memorandum,
about Vaclav Havel, back
at Emmanuel College, musical
Precious Bane, in Needham last
year, and this past January, Assassins,
with music and lyrics by
Stephen Sondheim based on a
book by John Weidman. Following
Theatre Group of Millis’ The
Odd Couple, Prokes will also direct
Dracula, The Bloody Truth, at the
Milford Performing Arts Center
in December.
Bobby McCall, of Burlington,
who will play “Felix,” met
director Mark Prokes when they
were both students at Emmanuel
College. He has been acting his
whole life, but really became serious
in high school and college.
“I like playing annoying characters,”
says McCall, who played
in two productions of The 25th
Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,
as lead Chip Talantino both
times and has worked with the
Theatre Group of Millis once,
last year, for a production of Almost
Maine. “I like being the high
strung one and getting to do
the silly stuff that makes people
laugh.”
Peter Themistocles, of Millis,
who will play Oscar in the production,
is excited about the role,
specifically, he says, “Because
Oscar is completely opposite of
who I am. I am Felix Unger,” he
laughs, “so, Oscar, for me, is a
huge acting challenge. It’s going
to be hard for me to litter the
stage and throw those cigarette
butts down!”
Themistocles began acting
back at Framingham South
High School, and he credits his
two daughters, Olivia and Emily
with leading his way back to the
world of theatre as an adult.
“I wanted to get invested back
in theatre with my daughters –
they were trying for Wizard of Oz
– so I did, and (the theatre group)
took a big risk and gave me the
Tin Man, and I got hooked.” A
year later, Themistocles would
land a role as the mute king,
Sextimus, in Millis’ production
of Once upon a Mattress, and later,
as Harry McAphee in Bye Bye,
Birdie with the group. Breaking
out, Themistocles took on a role
as “Schmendiman” in Picasso at
the Lapin Agile, with The Center
for the Arts in Natick (TCAN),
and a couple months ago, he
played “Mr. Kirby” in a Milford
Theatre production of You Can’t

Millis drew actors from neighboring
towns by advertising on
local casting sites, including Your

This November’s production
of Neil Simon’s The Odd Couple,

Dedication and Innovation
Make Quality Cleaners Top Notch
By Dave Pasquantonio
Quality Cleaners, located at
969 Main Street in the heart of
Millis, has been a mainstay in
town for decades. Quay Vuong
bought the business in spring of
2017 and has grown to love the
community as much as the community
loves his service.
Drop-off is easy. When customers
bring in their clothes,
the team affixes a tiny bar-code
sticker to each garment in an
inconspicuous place. The team
tracks each item during its stay
and assembles it along with all of
the other items in the customer’s
order for pickup. Customers
even get an automated text letting
them know that their items
are ready. Technology is key at
Quality Cleaners.
After the drop-off, the team
sorts the garments. Those to
be dry cleaned go in one spot,
items to be hand washed go in
another, and so on. Even “bleeders”—usually
the pieces of clothing
that are red—are separated.
Rush jobs and items that can wait
a few extra days get their own
spots, too.
Quay and his team look to the
garment’s care tag for the initial
sort. “I don’t like to go rogue,”
he says. But sometimes consumers
remove the tags—or, as Quay
has found a few times, sometimes
the care tags are incorrect—and
that’s where experience kicks in.
Knowing how fabrics react to his
machines, his additives, and his
processes is another reason why
customers trust their items with
Quay Vuong takes pride in his business, Quality Cleaners, located in
Millis, and enjoys providing cutting-edge, detail-oriented service to a
community he has grown to love.
Quay and his team.
Dry cleaning isn’t done dry—
clothes are soaked in a solvent
instead of in water. It’s the best
way to get rid of oils, plus some
garments can be harmed by
cleaning them water. At Quality
Cleaners, the days of using
perchloroethylene—“perc”—for
dry cleaning are long gone. Instead,
Quay uses hydrocarbon,
a leading-edge additive that’s
safe, good for delicate items, and
excellent at removing oils and
stains. However, it also increases
the need for pre-spotting—treating
spots and stains before the
cleaning.
Quay has a dozen or so bottles
of pre-cleaning stain removal
formulations to treat even the
harshest of stains—we’re talking
things difficult stains like salad
oil, grease, and tar.

“We thought Medway Village
Food Pantry would be a perfect
community group to align
with,” says Rice. “We’ve lived in
Medway pretty much our entire
lives – I have a sixth or seventh
generation niece and nephew.
We chose the Muffin House
(because) they’ve been great in
partnering with us in offering
free coffee for any donations. It
gives the food pantry a lot more
exposure and makes it accessible
for people stopping by who might
not know much about the food
pantry. We were definitely happy
with it last year.”
The Medway Village Food
Pantry also partners with the

expected to seek outside donations
to sustain its operations.
Community events that have
been critical to the food pantry
are the Medway Boy Scouts and
Cub Scouts’ Scouting for Food
events, in partnership with Star
Market of Medway. The Boy
Scouts conducted their event in
June, and next month, November
3rd, the Medway Cub Scouts will
follow suit outside the Shaw’s supermarket.
Although Medway residents
comprise a plurality (39%) of the
Medway Village Food Pantry’s
clientele, “we serve all residents
of Massachusetts,” says Dietrich.
From July 1, 2017 through June
30, 2018, this food pantry served
5,169 people from 33 towns
in Massachusetts. After Medway
(39%), those people hailed
from Milford (20%), Bellingham
(12%) and Millis (9%), and the
remaining 20% came from 29
other towns, ranging from Framingham
& Franklin to Upton &
Whitinsville.
Although
several pantry
clients receive
SNAP benefits,
many aren’t eligible.
Dietrich
points to a recent
survey that
says 47% of
people who are
food insecure
do not meet income
guidelines
for SNAP.
“Particularly
in this area of
the country,
where cost of
living is so high,
we have clients
who aren’t eligible
(for SNAP),
but they still
can’t feed their
family of four,
five or six. We have families with
four kids who take care of Mom
and Dad. The last day of each
month, we are mobbed. Their
funds have run out. One of the
things we talk to people about is
how to stretch (the food),” says
Dietrich.
In total, around 15% of the
population the Medway Village
Food Pantry sees are seniors;
28% are children, and the rest
are adults aged 18-65.
Dietrich says reasons fueling
the need for the pantry vary.
“Some of it is cost of living,
some job loss, illness in the family,
death of a provider –
housing costs especially, rent
keeps going up and up. We actually
have people come in asking
if we’ve heard of places for
rent. People are getting priced
out of places affordable to live.
We have people who say, ‘I just
got evicted. I stayed in my car last
night,’” she says.
Dietrich laments that at times,
the need is greater than the space

will allow.
“It’s a challenge for sure,” she
says. In fact, Dietrich’s son, Liam,
recently designed new shelving
at the pantry for his Eagle Scout
project, in order to allow more efficient
use of the space.
Despite an ever-present need,
says Dietrich, “We’re very fortunate,
we feel very supported by
this community, and by the business
community.” The Medway
Shaw’s and The Muffin House,
for example, provide regular donations
of food.
Both Medway food pantries
also do accept food donations.
“Sometimes, donations people
will leave for us – they’ll clean
out their own food pantry and
will give us food that is three, four
or five years old, or items that are
dented or damaged,” says Dietrich.
Liam Dietrich worked with
Paul Galante, of the Medway
Food Pantry, to put together a
“DONATE” guideline sheet for
food donations, which accompanies
this article.
Those who come to the food
pantry for help will not only find
food, they will encounter much
needed compassion from the
25-40 volunteers who run the
pantry, about 15 of whom are
there on a given Saturday morning.
“I firmly believe everyone
who walks in the door should feel
respected, kindness, supported,”
says Dietrich. “We’ll connect
them with resources as we can –
social workers, the senior center.
We get maybe 15, 20 minutes
with them, but we want to make
sure they consider us a resource. I
really don’t know a lot of people
who feel good about needing to
rely on someone else for something
as basic as their food. The
hardest thing is walking in the
door the first time.”

says. “There can be several components
in that one stain: coffee,
a sugar, a dairy product. Many
off-the-shelf spot removers can’t
handle those stains.”
Other items are wet
cleaned—washed in detergents,
additives, and specialized machinery.
Still others, most notably
button-down shirts, are destined
for the laundry. And some garments
are washed individually by
hand with specialized additives
and a lot of care and time.
Some of the machines at
Quality Cleaners are among the
best in the business. Quay says
that his BÖWE M26 dry cleaner
machine is “the Rolls Royce of
dry cleaning machines,” and he
loves his Sankosha presses.
So, why bring your clothes
to a cleaner, when much of the
work could be done at home if
one has the time and the desire?
Take ironing. It’s a relatively
simple task—you haul out the
board, plug in the iron, select a
heat setting, and iron away. But it
can take forever, and some items
are too big to iron at home (plus
it’s really hard to get that snappy
pants crease like the dry cleaner
provides).
Instead of ironing at home,
one can take advantage of Quality
Cleaners’ experience, equipment,
and technique. They
use a press system with a slight
vacuum in the ironing board that
keeps the garment from moving.
Quay and his team know when
to apply steam, when to apply
heat, and when to let the garment
cool (that’s how they get
that snappy pants crease!)
Quay works constantly to
improve his business’s efficiency.
For example, existing customers
can drop off their items in about
thirty seconds, saving them a
few minutes with each visit. He
also took a hard look at all of the
store’s functions and relocated
some to decrease time spent
going from station to station.
He’s tweaked some of his formulations,
like enzyme ingesters,
to lessen the physical impact on
garments and extend their life.
Back to that question: why
bring your clothes to Quality
Cleaners?
Because they’re dedicated,
they innovate, they save you
time, and they can extend the
life of your garments. Plus, your
clothes will look way better than
after you do them yourself.
Quality Cleaners is open
Monday through Friday from 7
a.m. to 7 p.m., and on Saturdays
from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They offer
free pickup and delivery and also
provide alterations. Give them

McDonald grew up in upstate
New York in a family of teachers
and nurses.
“I knew at a young age this
profession was what I wanted to
do,” says McDonald, who double
majored in Psychology and Special
Education at Hobart & William
Smith College.
Loving every practicum she
did, McDonald went on to graduate
school at BC, mastering in
Curriculum and Instruction and
student teaching a second-grade
class there. She taught as an art
teacher, a first-grade teacher and
a Kindergarten teacher for over a
decade, receiving her Certificate
of Graduate Study and finding
she loved the leadership role.
“I love to problem solve, to
help people get to a better version
of themselves, and myself, too, so
we can have a better impact on
students,” says McDonald.
McDonald served for two
years as assistant principal and
for another two years as principal
of the large James W. Hennigan
School in Jamaica Plain, followed
by seven years as principal of the
smaller Philbrick Elementary
School in Roslindale.
“It was a very diverse population,
but a smaller school,” says
McDonald.
The principal found herself
living in Hopkinton after she got
married, and after having her
twins in 2016, landed a position
she loved as an assistant principal
at an elementary school in
Ashland before applying for the
Medway position.
“I feel like all my experiences
have led me to be here,” says
McDonald, who says her new
position is everything she’d been
looking for, from elementary
grade Spanish, a strong readers
and writers workshop, and a
strong commitment in the district
to work on social and emotional
learning.
“I loved the sense of community
from this school,” says
McDonald, who says McGovern
struck her as “a special place,
where people really cared about
each other.
I think that one part of my job
is to bring the (McGovern) community
together, to help families
feel connected to our family and

our school, and that this is a
place they see themselves, and
another really important job
is to recognize the great work
educators are doing and to
celebrate that great work and
help them grow in their professional
growth trajectory.” Most
importantly, says McGovern,
her job “is to be a champion of
little people.
I’ve always been drawn to
this age. It’s where my heart
is. We have the youngest kids
in this district, and they better
leave here loving school. You
are working with the youngest
of students, who come in not
knowing how to hold a pencil,
or read numbers or letters, who
learn how to be a kind friend
and leave a different person.
It truly takes a very talented
teacher to work at this grade
level.”
John Murray, Principal,
Medway High School
New Medway High School
Principal Murray grew up in
Hyde Park, attending Boston
Latin High School.
“I knew I wanted to be a
teacher pretty early on,” says
the married father of two and
Walpole resident, who, as a firstgeneration
college student, completed
his degree in History and
Education at Bridgewater State
College.
After college, he got a student
teaching position in Brockton.
“I loved it,” says Murray. “It
was a huge school – 4,500 students.
I really loved teaching kids
who needed doors opened to
them, who looked for role models
and some sort of mentorship.”
His student teaching position led
to a job where he’d take on after
school projects, provide MCAS
support at night, act as an advisor
to clubs and oversee work
programs for kids.
“Finding multiple opportunities
to help kids was where my
passion lay,” says Murray, who
quickly pursued and got his masters
and then leadership certificate,
also from Bridgewater.
Although he had anticipated
staying at Bridgewater, Murray
encountered an opportunity to
become Assistant Principal in
Dedham, where he served for
seven years, later becoming Associate
Principal at Lexington
High School.
“I have been able to see a wide
spectrum of experiences,” says
Murray. “Every kid has needs, it
doesn’t matter where you grow
up. Kids will show you on the surface
what they want you to know,
but if you dig, they will show you
what you need to know.”
Murray says that as a school,
“It’s our responsibility to make
sure we recalibrate what the definition
of success is for students.
It isn’t necessarily taking as many
AP’s as possible, or going to the
top-brand schools. It’s (working)
with adults and parents to find
ways to create a path toward your
own passion and goals.”
In Medway, says Murray, he
sees opportunity for everyone.
“I’m trying to create a community
of learners for our students,
but also for our adults.
We’re all in this together,” says
Murray, who’s hoping to build
relationships. “I think it starts
with building trust and showing
that you care about one another
– that our teachers are building
relationships with students to
know that this is a safe place to be
a learner. And so the first couple
of weeks have been really about
building those relationships, before
diving into the curriculum.
If you start that base of relationship
and really care, kids will
open up to the education you’re
providing.”
Students, for example, may
not like science, but if they like
the teacher and know the teacher
cares about them, they will work
harder. Rather than shut down,
Murray hopes to foster teacherstudent
relationships that make
students feel valued.
In Lexington, Murray noticed
a large amount of stress among
students, and he took an initiative
of “positivity and happiness,
finding ways to take the temperature
down for kids and building
spirit.” He played music in hallways
on certain days and incorporated
a “flex block” during the
day for all students, so that they
could design and get the support
they needed.
“The tactic was to build it in
for everyone,” says Murray. “No
one’s missing out on anything, it’s
not recess, it’s not break time. It’s
an opportunity to get what you
need.”
As an administrator, says
Murray, he sees student voice as
important as core values.
“Ask for student feedback on
what they want and need,” says
Murray. “Tailor education to
where they are.”

Jim Kane, Director of Facilities,
Medway Public Schools
Jim Kane, a South Boston native,
comes to Medway Public
Schools from the town of Natick,
where he managed both town
and school properties. The married
father of three, who lives in
Franklin, has a BA in Construction
Management from Wentworth
and a MS in Facilities
Management from Mass Maritime
Academy. Prior to his position
in Natick for three years,
he worked as a facilities director
with Rogerson Communities in
Boston for eight years.
Kane’s work, he says, is often
“off the radar,” and that’s fine
with him.
“We’re kind of like a silent
department,” he says, providing
a safe, clean and well-maintained
environment that conducive to
kids having the best experience.
“People usually don’t think of us
until there’s something not working.”
“As facilities management,
we’re in charge of the daily operations
of all the physical plants,
cleaning, heating, cooling, energy
conservation measures, school
facility rentals,” says Kane.
“I’m in charge of the cleaning,
routine repair, utilities expenses
and usage in the four schools –
635,000 square feet.”
Kane says he’s still assessing
the needs of the facilities, that
have a mix of renovations and
additions, as well as getting to
know his staff of twelve.
Kane says that in coming to
this position, “I wasn’t trying to
leave Natick as much as I was
trying to come to Medway. The
main driver was I had an opportunity
to work in a smaller
town, where I believe a lot of my
experience and education can
really impact a positive change,
have a positive effect. The town
is exciting to work for, expanding
and growing for the better,
and attracting younger families.
It really drew me in. I’m very interested
to work in a place I can
make a change, and I like the
idea of working closer to home.”
Kane was impressed with
Medway’s team and support
structure, and, he says, his challenge
is to do more on a budget.
“My goal is to make sure students,
visitors and parents that
come to school each and every
day have a safe, welcoming atmosphere
to be able to achieve
and learn in this district – a setting
where parents feel proud to
be able to send their kids. My
challenge, every day, is to always
put students first, and to help
strengthen and develop my staff
and my team, to make sure everything
is working together and
make sure the staff feels well supported
with proper equipment,
tools and knowledge to do the
job effectively.”
Communication is a key component
of this, says Kane, who
hopes to foster relationships with
other town officials to keep everything
running smoothly. He
also encourages feedback about

Craig Juelis, Principal, Medway
Middle School
Craig Juelis wants to empower
his students. The father of two
tells them, “You always want to
be the one making choices, not
having the choice made for you.”
He hopes to teach them strategies
along the way and steps that
they can take to achieve the success
moving forward.
“Middle schoolers are at that
position where they still have
that wide range of ability, interests,
eagerness to try and learn
different things. The great thing,
at this point, is they branch off
and may tap into something they
haven’t necessarily known about
themselves. We’re trying to give
them the support structure to
allow them to take those risks,
while at the same time (teaching
them) to deal with social nuances
and social/emotional learning.”
Juelis comes to Medway from
North Attleboro, where he most
recently served as Middle School
principal, having also served as
High School Principal and Middle
School Assistant Principal
for the town. Originally a social
studies teacher both in New Jersey
and then in Mansfield, from
1998 to 2007, Juelis, who was educated
at Union College in New
York, first moved into administration
as Assistant Principal in
Blackstone/Millville.
“I think as kids get closer to
high school, you start to see an
interesting shift. It’s learning how
to develop from a 5th grader to
an 8th grader, in terms of being
more independent, more responsible.
As simple as writing homework
down every night, learning
how to study, how to take a test,
then you have the content piece
added to it.”
In addition to needing support
in learning strategies, middle
school, children are experiencing
new social and emotional
dynamics, “getting to be more
of an adult; you get wise to the
world,” says Juelis.
“The great part of middle
school is you’re not dealing with
everyone at the same time doing
the same thing,” says Juelis. He
likens this age’s development to
a bridge.
“Kids all over the bridge are
becoming independent learners
and thinkers. The challenge is
how you get everyone to that end
path. I’ve always heard the saying
middle school doesn’t count,
but my retort to that is – when
you go to high school, and it does
count, do you want to be prepared,
or is that when you want
to start learning these strategies?
Or, do you already want to have
a couple of strategies down?”
Juelis talks of teacher teams
providing a support structure for
students, with blended and personal
learning, where students
can show they understand materials
in a choice of ways.
The educator loves “seeing
the kids at the end, seeing kids
as 6th graders to high school,
seeing how they’ve transformed
over time. I almost like seeing
them say, ‘I can’t do this,’ and
then seeing them at the end say,
‘I did this. I did it with help, but
I did this.’
Every day, says Juelis, he sees
staff interacting with kids at different
levels. “The best part of
every day is having those constant
interactions and moments
you can see the kids with that
proverbial light bulb, where (staff)
see that positive impact they can
have on students. I look at (my
role) as trying to provide that
experience for teachers and students
so that they want to come
to school because of the different
relationships they have and the
learning that’s going on.”

Cataract Surgery-The Laser Revolution Closer to Home
By Roger M. Kaldawy, M.D.,
Milford Franklin Eye Center
What is a cataract and
what is cataract surgery?
A cataract is a common condition
in which the normally clear
lens of the eye becomes progressively
cloudy. When light passes
through a clear lens, the light
can focus to a point, creating a
clear view. When light passes
through a cataract, the light gets
distorted, creating a blurred view.
Compared to vision with a clear
lens, your vision with a cataract
may look fuzzy, and colors might
be muted. These visual disturbances
from cataracts are progressive,
and when they become
bothersome or limit your daily
activities, it’s time to consider
treatment. Treatment for cataracts
involves surgery to remove
the cataract and replace it with
Optical
Shop
On-Site
an intraocular lens implant. It is
the most common surgical procedure
in the US and around the
world and is considered to be
an extremely successful and safe
procedure.
What is laser cataract
surgery?
Many of the steps of cataract
surgery are traditionally performed
using handheld tools.
Now, they can be completed with
the precision of a laser. Using
the Catalys Precision Laser System,
your surgeon can offer you
unprecedented accuracy and
customization in your cataract
surgery procedure. Your surgeon
can use the laser to create
a circular openiang for accessing
and removing the cataract. Clinical
studies have shown that this
opening is more accurate when
performed with the laser than

what is achievable by hand. The
laser then softens and breaks up
the hard cataract into tiny pieces,
allowing for gentler, easier cataract
removal. Depending on your
pre-operative vision and desired
visual result, your surgeon may
recommend a tailored treatment
plan that could include creating
ultra-precise laser incisions
in the cornea and a specific lens
implant type (e.g. The Symfony
or Restor multifocal lens for near
and far vision). This tailored
treatment may reduce your need
for glasses or contact lenses after
surgery.
What are the benefits of
laser cataract surgery?
• A highly customized treatment
using advanced 3D

• A treatment with little or no
discomfort

The opportunity to receive

which may reduce the need for
glasses or contacts after surgery
Am I a suitable candidate
for laser cataract
surgery?
In our experience, most cataract
patients are suitable patients
for laser cataract surgery. Your
doctor and his/her support staff
will discuss your candidacy in
more detail during your cataract
evaluation exam.
How long has the
procedure been
performed?
Thousands of procedures
have been successfully performed
using the Catalys Precision Laser
System, and lasers have been
used in eye procedures for decades.
Catalys laser represents
the new standard in precision
laser cataract surgery and was
FDA cleared in 2011.
How does the laser work?
What is it doing to my
eye?
Every eye has a unique size
and shape. Prior to treatment,
the Catalys Precision Laser
System scans your eye making
a precise 3D map of relevant
structures. This process enables
your surgeon to create a highly
customized treatment plan that
is tailored for your eye. The
laser then focuses light to create
precise incisions exactly where
intended. The laser makes the
incisions in a matter of seconds.
You should experience little, if
any, discomfort.
What will I feel?
You can expect little or no discomfort
during your treatment.
During the laser portion, patients
describe seeing kaleidoscope of
lights and slight pressure only.
How long does the
procedure take?
You can expect to be at the
surgery center for 2 hours. You
will be in the procedure room for
10 to 12 minutes. The 3D imaging
and laser portion of the treatment
only takes a few minutes.
How is your center
different from other
cataract surgery centers?
Catalys laser cataract surgery
is all about better precision,
more safety and excellent outcomes.
Across the country, only
a small number of specialized
lasers are available and in use.
At Milford Franklin Eye Center,
Dr. Kaldawy was the first to offer
bladeless laser cataract surgery in
the area and among the first in
New England. We are proud to
bring this technology to the area.
The top 5 teaching hospitals in
the Nation offer bladeless laser
cataract surgery. We offer the
same. We use one of the 2 femtosecond
lasers currently used by
Mass Eye and Ear Infirmary –
the same laser used by the best
of the best. We perform the procedure
in a state-of-the-art center
in Milford and closer to home.
With this center available to you
here in your backyard, there is no
reason whatsoever to travel hours
to have cataract surgery. If your
eye provider is still recommending
you travel miles away to have
cataract surgery, we are available
for a second opinion! We implant
high quality premium lenses,
with correction for distance, near
and everything in between. With
the Symfony and Restor implants,
astigmatism is no longer
a problem. Our percentage of
complications and infections is
one of the lowest in the Nation
and is measured by independent
sources. 100% of the surgeries
are performed under topical anesthesia,
so only drops, no need
for shots and their risks and no
need for stitches. We are proud
to offer excellence in cataract surgery
with world class outcomes
and here is the great news: Here,
in Milford, and closer to home
than ever before!

of Community VNA in Attleboro
seeks to reduce barriers to
dental care by holding two free
dental screening clinics per year.
The fall clinic will be held Saturday,
October 20, 2018 from
8:45 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Harmony
Adult Day Health Center, 725A
Myles Standish Boulevard in
Taunton. Seniors age 60 or over
may schedule an appointment
for a free dental screening by
calling (774) 203-1326. Appointments
are open to seniors living
in Massachusetts.
Clinic participants will receive
a dental screening exam and will
have the opportunity to discuss
the findings with the dentist in
the clinic’s relaxed, friendly setting.
Dentists from the area, including
Dr. Donald Pierce, of
Attleboro Falls Family Dentistry,
volunteer, to examine patients for
problems with their teeth, gums,
and dentures.
Participants will also be
screened for oral cancers and
have the opportunity to receive
free denture cleaning and labeling
provided by students from
the Bristol Community College’s
Dental Hygiene program. Students
will also offer tips and answer
questions about good oral
hygiene. All students are under
the supervision of their instructor
as they participate in the screening
clinic.
Nutritional information will
be provided about food choices
to those experiencing chewing
problems, dry mouth, medication
interactions, and other concerns.
It is the mission of the Elder
Dental Program to support oral
health needs and provide education
for seniors. According to
the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC), studies
link oral infections with diabetes,
heart disease, and stroke. Most
oral diseases are preventable.
During the screening participants

MAKE YOU HAPPY?
For women looking for
straighter, smoother hair,
Thermafuse Amino Cuticle
Smoothing Treatment provides
an effective treatment that
is independently lab-tested
to be formaldehyde-free and
keratin-free. The treatment
infuses amino acids deep
into the hair cuticle to make
uncontrollable, wavy, or frizzy
hair more manageable, shinier,
and smoother for three to five
months. After washing the hair
with an anti-residue shampoo,
hair is divided into sections
and the smoothing treatment
is carefully applied. Once the
treated tresses are combed and
carefully blown dry, the hair is
again sectioned and flat-ironed
to seal in the results. Treated
hair is then shampooed,
conditioned, and styled as
desired. Hair emerges with a
smooth, finished look that looks
and feels fantastic.
We offer several additional
straightening services: Brazilian

Your Home Could Be Your
Greatest Asset. Protect It.
Here’s the good news: Property
values continue to rebound
after the Great Recession. In
fact, Zillow.com reports that, as
of August 31, 2017, the median
home value in the U.S. stood at
$201,900—an increase of 6.9%
in just one year.
So what’s the bad news? In
2013, the last year for which there
are statistics, home mortgage
debt was the largest household
liability, representing between
two-thirds and three-quarters of
total household debt.1
Given these statistics, it’s easy
to see why so many new homeowners
are eager to purchase
mortgage insurance from their
lenders. That way, if something
tragic happens, they can be sure
that the lenders will be paid in
full and that their families will
retain ownership of this valuable
asset.
Be sure to consider all the options.
It’s important, however,
for homeowners to realize that
there are other ways to protect
the lifestyle and wealth of their
families. Personally owned life
insurance, for example, can perform
many of the same functions
as mortgage insurance, but
it offers greater flexibility. That’s
because life insurance gives your
beneficiaries the freedom to determine
how the death benefit
will be spent. Let’s take a look at
why that might be important.
You—and your loved ones—
may want greater flexibility.
While your family can always
use the death benefit to retire the
mortgage, there may be more immediate
financial needs. With life
insurance, they have the option
of using the money to pay medical
bills, cover funeral expenses,
or simply keep the household up
and running in your absence. It
may also make sense for your
loved ones to pay down the mortgage
over time, so they can use
the insurance proceeds for other
purposes and take advantage of
the mortgage interest deduction.
What’s more, personally owned
life insurance is portable, so as
long as your policy remains in
good standing, you will remain
covered—no matter where you
live or how many times you
move.
Of course, most people don’t
buy a home simply for its value—
but now, more than ever, that is
an important consideration. If
your home—and any equity you
have built up—represents your
largest financial asset, be sure to
weigh all your options and take
whatever steps you can to protect
it. No matter what you decide to
do, there’s a good chance that
you—and your loved ones—will
sleep better for it.

Dean College Ranks
Among the Top Best
Regional Colleges
Dean College, a private, residential
college located in Franklin,
Massachusetts, has been
ranked 23nd in the 2019 U.S.
News & World Report for the Best
Regional Colleges, North category.
Additionally, Dean placed
12th in this category for Best
Value Schools.
This is the eighth consecutive
year that Dean College has
received the Best College honor
and 3rd consecutive year for Best
Value.
“We are thrilled to be recognized
by U.S. News and our peer
institutions once again this year,”
said Dr. Paula M. Rooney, Dean
College President. “It signals
the overall strength of Dean’s
academic experience and the
emphasis we place on student
success.”
U.S. News & World Report is
a multi-platform, publisher of
news and information. The U.S.
News ranking system for the Best
Regional Colleges rests on two
pillars. The formula uses quantitative
measures that education
experts have proposed as reliable
indicators of academic quality,
and it is based on research
of what matters in education,
including: graduation rate performance,
academic reputation,
and financial selectivity among
others.
This year’s ranking is a testament
to The Dean Difference – the
hands-on and engaging faculty &
staff, strong academic support,
valuable internships, and real-life
workforce preparation that Dean
College provides.

beginning Thursday, October
25 through Sunday, October
28, 2018.
Inspired by the French playwright
Molière’s original 1671
play, Les Fourberies de Scapin,
Frank Dunlop and Jim Dale
have heightened Molière’s comedy
with slapstick and burlesque,
resulting in a story of the most
engaging nonsense. Set in contemporary
Naples, Italy, two
sons, two daughters, and two
fathers find themselves mixed
up in the crafty Scapino’s plot to
solve romantic problems faced
by two of his friends. A fasttalking,
quick-thinking scamp,
Scapino cleverly manipulates and
cajoles everyone into doing what
he intends them to do.
The Dean College production
of Scapino! will take place in the
Main Stage in the Campus Center
at Dean College, 109 West
Central Street, Franklin at 7:30

If These Stones Could Talk
Prospect Hill Cemetery Tour Brings
Past Alive in Millis
By J.D. O’Gara
Stephen Main has worked for the town of Millis since
1984, caring for Prospect Hill Cemetery, which hails back
to the 1700s, when Millis was known as East Medway.
“I come up here every day and there’s always something
to do,” says Main, who fondly remembers the man
who taught him his job – John Joyce -- and what he knew
about the people laid to rest at Prospect Hill.
This month, in the spirit of All Hallow’s Eve, Main
invites strollers along for an oral history of what he’s
learned during his years caring for the location.
Steve Main will lead a Cemetery Stroll at Prospect Hill
Cemetery in Millis on October 13th. For details, contact the
Millis Recreation Department either at the town website,
www.millis.org or at (508) 376-7053.
The entrance to the cemetery climbs a hill, known as
Emerson Hill, says Main. Emerson, the founder of Emerson
College, is buried in the cemetery, and Emerson Farm
sat in majesty at the bottom of the hill.
“I have an old drawing and couple pictures of Emerson
Hill,” says Main. “It was a huge, beautiful farm.”
The drawing of the immense farmhouse, in fact shows
a large area with no trees around, quite different from
today. “They used all of the wood,” says Main.
Emerson’s memorial once sported brass candles,
which were retrieved and placed for safe keeping at Emerson
College by Emerson’s descendants. “I’ve been told
at night, the moon would reflect off these candles and
they’d glow, and Emerson’s widow could look up and see
them.”
The candles are now in the archives at Emerson College,
and Emerson’s descendants had written a letter in
March, 1988, inviting John Joyce to come to see them
there. Sadly, Joyce had passed away the month before,
says Main.
Main explains a plaque in the wall at the top of the
hill, near the shed. Arthur Ware’s family place the plaque
in the wall, next to two rosebushes, which, unfortunately,
did not survive. At one time, Joyce and Main planted
bushes there in an effort to honor the spirit of the plaque;
the rosebushes lived for awhile, but, as Main puts it, they
need care to survive, and it’s all he can do to carefully
keep up with mowing and weedwhacking, so right now,
the area remains rose-free.
The oldest headstone in the cemetery dates back to
about 1724, says Main, and he can show you where it is.
Main can also tell you about the stone for former Massachusetts
Governor Christian Herter, as well as an archway
Where are the roses? Ask Steve Main, on the Cemetery
Stroll at Prospect Hill Cemetery in Millis.
that local lore says was made with a piece of the Blarney
stone, a piece that is always cold to the touch.
Prospect Hill’s caretaker also points to a large rock
dated 1714, where East Medway’s first church was located.
“That’s how they used to bury people, too, where the
churches were located,” says Main. In fact, he says, Prospect
Hill was the site of three churches over the course
of time, with the final church, Church of Christ, having
been moved to its current site to make way for the railroad.
If you’d like to take a trip back into time and explore
this historic site and Millis history, join the Cemetery
Stroll on October 13th, at noon (park over at Richardson’s
Pond on Curve Street). This program will display
some of the local influences that helped form Millis that
are buried here in this cemetery. Registration is required
through the Millis Recreation Department
at http://www.millis.org/Pages/MillisMA_Recreation/index,
or (508) 376-7053, and the cost is $10 per
adult and $5 for seniors.

Medway Native Copeland to Coach Mustangs’ Boys Hoop Team
By KEN HAMWEY, Staff
Sports Writer
This position requires
prospecting new businesses
and handling all aspects
of account management
in the full sales
cycle.
Local Town Pages is searching for a
Full Time/Part-Time
Advertising Account Manager
REQUIREMENTS:
• Must have minimum of 1 year of Advertising Sales Experience
• Must be in the Metro-West Area
• Bachelors Degree preferred however, will consider experience
• Microsoft Office Proficient
• Must have means of transportation
to meet with clients as needed.
With success as a jayvee coach
under his belt, Medway native
Eric Copeland stands poised
for success as the boys’ varsity
basketball coach.
Eric Copeland’s Medway
roots run deep.
A native of Medway, he
played basketball and soccer at
Medway High, graduated in
1992, then returned to coach
freshman and jayvee basketball
for the Mustangs after earning
his degree in criminal justice at
Western New England College
in Springfield. Married and the
father of three, the 44-year-old
Franklin police detective still lives
in town.
All those links to Medway are
impressive, but it’s his 20 years of
sub-varsity coaching experience
that no doubt landed him in the
driver’s seat when he interviewed
for the Mustangs’ varsity boys’
basketball job. Copeland will succeed
Jason Rojee, who stepped
down to devote more time to his
family. Rojee, however, will continue
to coach the varsity girls’
soccer team.
Copeland coached the Medway
frosh squad for three years,
and he’s coached the jayvees on
two separate occasions for a total
of five seasons. He also spent 12
years in Franklin’s basketball program
— six as a freshman coach,
five as a varsity assistant and
last year as the Panthers’ jayvee
coach.
Taking the reins of a varsity
program seems like a good fit
for Copeland and for Medway
High. When he last coached the
jayvees at Medway (2014-2017),
his teams experienced three winning
seasons, one of which was
an undefeated campaign.
“I’ve learned a lot from some
terrific coaches,’’ Copeland said.
“It’s not all about winning when
coaching freshmen and jayvees
— it’s about developing talent.
I strived to develop kids to be a
positive part of a program’s philosophy.
As a sub-varsity coach,
it’s important to get players to
buy into a team-first concept and
to build positive relationships.’’
Copeland has had some topnotch
mentors who’ve influenced
and sharpened his coaching
acumen. He’s worked for Don
Grimes and Rojee at Medway,

Work from Home Available
• House Accounts •
Please email your resume to
Lori Koller at lorikoller@localtownpages.com
and at Franklin he labored for
Dean O’Connor and CJ Neely.
His coach at Western New England,
Brett Bishop, was also a
plus.
“I played for Paul Carroll at
Medway and he gave me my
first coaching job,’’ Copeland
recalled. “That was as Medway’s
freshman coach in 1996,
just after I got out of college. All
the coaches I’ve worked for are
top-notch. Dean O’Connor at
Franklin taught me that time and
commitment are the key ingredients
for success, and Jason built a
winning program at Medway by
stressing fundamentals.’’
Copeland also has a solid
grip on other aspects that lead
to winning. “My goals are for
our program to be respected for
our work ethic and the type of
kids we have,’’ he said. “I also
want to build a strong relationship
with the youth program in
town. Competing for the Tri Valley
League Small Division title
is another objective along with
qualifying for the tourney.’’
Copeland’s teams will have a
specific on-court style that will
stress defense. “We’ll take pride
in our ability to defend,’’ he emphasized.
“I also like to fast-break
and be up-tempo on offense.
We’ll attack the basket and be
sound in our shot selection.’’
Being in the trenches with five
top-caliber coaches helped Copeland
to develop some definite
strengths. He ran practices, and
he was part of planning sessions
and scouting assignments. Some
of his strengths include preparation,
organization, employing
strategy and having a sharp basketball
IQ.
“My coaching philosophy
is about building positive relationships,
helping players reach
their potential and enjoying their
athletic experience,’’ Copeland
noted. “If those things occur,
then winning will follow. Winning
is the by-product of players
taking a team-first approach to
the game.’’
Copeland knows that competing
in the TVL means “there’ll
be no easy nights.’’ He views
Norton and Dedham as strong
squads in the small division and
he sees Bellingham as an improved
group. Dover-Sherborn
and Millis are no cakewalks
either, labeling them as “wellcoached
and hard-working.’’
Copeland will have five returnees
who got their share of
playing time last year. They include
juniors Drew Plunkett
(point guard), Kyle Regan (wing),
and Ryan Johnston (forward),
and seniors Jack Hadigan (center)
and Tim Uzoegbu (forward).
“These kids will be part of our
nucleus, based on their play last
year and their work in summer
league,’’ Copeland said. “Our
core group should be deep and
well-rounded.’’
And, the new coach will have
a pair of well-rounded assistants.
Shane Jackson will be the varsity
assistant and Steve Linehan is the
jayvee coach.
When Copeland played at
Medway, he earned TVL all-star
honors as a senior in basketball,
and he competed as a midfielder
in soccer, playing on the 1991
state championship team. He
was a captain in both sports.
“What I admired most about
playing at Medway was the way
our coaches treated us,’’ Copeland
said. “Paul Carroll and Wes
Truscott cared about all their
players and they built positive relationships.’’
At Western New England
College, Copeland played four
years of varsity basketball, starting
for 2½ years at point guard.
He was a captain twice for the
Golden Bears.
Copeland was a leader then
and he’s ready to lead again —
this time as a varsity coach. “We
want our players to learn valuable
life lessons from sports,’’ he
said. “Like overcoming adversity
and being respectful. Other good
lessons are developing a strong
work ethic, commitment, being a
good teammate and setting goals.
Family responsibility should also
be in the mix.’’
Copeland hasn’t coached a
varsity game yet but chances are
good that Medway High’s basketball
program will continue
to be formidable and successful.
The Eric Copeland era gets
underway on Dec. 14 when the
Mustangs host Norwood.

New Locale, New Coach for Millis Golf
By Christopher Tremblay,
Staff Sports Writer
When Glen Ellen Country
Club closed, the Millis golf team
lost their coach, who was also the
golf pro at the country club, and
Athletic Director Chuck Grant
was forced to scramble to find a
Coach for the upcoming season
as well as a new golf course to
call home.
The golf team will now share
Holliston’s Pinecrest Golf Club
with Holliston and Ashland High
School. Although Glen Ellen was
in town and accessible for the
golfers, many of the athletes were
already playing at Pinecrest due
to the affordable cost to a high
school golfer.
Lance Benham, a science
teacher in the Millis school system
for the last 11 years was
named the first-time coach to
take over the golf team this fall.
Growing up in Northern Vermont,
Benham enjoyed playing
golf, although his high school did
not have a team. He was a member
of the local country club and
played as much golf as he could
during the nights and on weekends.
“Since the birth of my two
daughters, my golf had becaome
limited,” the new coach said. “I
am glad to have the opportunity
to get back on the course and
coach this fine group of young
adults that is the Millis golf
team.”
On the links, Benham will be
looking to senior captain Peter
Sanchioni to help him lead the
team. The senior captain has
been looking good so far in practices
shooting in the mid 40’s
over nine holes and will probably
be the team’s number four golfer.
In addition to setting a good example
for the rest of the team,
Benham is also looking for his
captain to mentor the younger
players as needed.
Battling it out for the top two
posts will be juniors Ryan Brooks
and TJ Hourigan, who both
shoot in the low 40’s. Hourigan
has a better long game, while
Brooks is a good fairway shooter
and chipper.
Following either Hourigan or
Brooks in the number three spot
will be Thomas Hill, Jonathan
Leduc will be at five, Jake Costa,
Mike Govani and Josh Berman
will be tee off sixth, seventh and
eighth respectively. According
to Benham, three through eight
pretty much all have about the
same skill level and on any given
day the five athletes can bounce
between the spots.
Senior Tyler Gelasco, who
would have seen some course action,
was lost for the season when
he injured his shoulder.
“As a first-year coach, I want
to guys to be professional on
the course and set the standard.
That’s how we do it – small
school, big family” the Coach
said. “I will be coaching athletes
of all different levels of the sport
and am hoping that each and
every one of them gets better by
the end of the year.”
For the most part, the Millis
athletes know what they are
doing on the course as the come
from families who play golf on a
regular basis. On the other hand,
those on the practice squad, are
younger and will need some
coaching.
As for competing in the Tri
Valley League Benham does not
have a clue what to expect this
season.
“I’ve never done this (coaching)
before, but I do see us pulling
out 6 or 7 wins,” Benham said.
“It’s going to be tough, and we
are not going to be competitive
against towns that have junior
varsity programs. We just have
our varsity team and a limited
practice squad so that puts us at
a disadvantage.”
Disadvantage or not, the Millis
golfers are looking to take to
the golf course and perform at
their best while improving their
games as the season progresses
and, who knows? They may
even go above and beyond their
coach’s expectations.
Millis High’s golf team will now share Holliston’s Pinecrest Golf Club
with Holliston and Ashland High Schools, now that it has lost its former
location of Glen Ellen Country Club. They also begin this year with a
first-time coach, Lance Benham.

MERIT Haunted Hayride
Saturday, October 27
Proceeds to benefit Millis Educational
Resource Initiative Team (M.E.R.I.T.)
The Millis Educational
Resource Initiative Team
(M.E.R.I.T.) will be hosting their
Annual Haunted Hayride at
Tangerini’s Spring Street Farm in
Millis on Saturday, October 27st
from 4:30 – 10 p.m.. For fifteen
years, this annual family friendly
event is MERIT’s top fundraiser
of the year and helps provide the
funds awarded to grant recipients
from all three Millis public
schools every year.
Cost for the event is $10/person.
The spooky meter will be
low from 4:30 – 6:30 for families
with young children looking to
enjoy a fun hayride around the
fields of Tangerini’s Farm. Please
note, though lower on the spooky
scale, characters will be dressed
in costume, so please use parental
discretion. After 6:30, the spooky
meter is turned up a notch and
a lot of scares and fun are to be
found at all our Scary Stations.
Refreshments will be available
for purchase. Tickets will be on
sale at Tangerini’s and Roche
Bros. after the first of October.
We will also have special ticket
sale dates on Saturday, October
13th and 20th at the Millis

and tickets typically sell out, so be
sure to get them before the event!
“The MERIT Haunted Hayride
at Tangerini’s Farm is a
great school-community, familyoriented
event that is our biggest
fundraiser of the year. The
field station volunteers are Millis
teachers, coaches, and parents
that have a lot of fun scaring
the Hayride participants while
MERIT volunteers offer concessions
for purchase in the greenhouse.
It has been wonderful to
work with the Tangerini’s year
after year. It is the perfect location
and we are very grateful for
this partnership!” says Theresa
Mahoney, MERIT President.
The Millis Resource Initiatives
Team is a non-profit, state
chartered local education fund.
Founded in 1991 and run by volunteers
(Millis residents) MERIT
solicits funds for innovative, curriculum-based
programs not typically
funded within the regular
school budgets. Nearly $300,000
has been granted to enhance the
Millis School System curriculum
since 1991. MERIT has additional
fundraisers throughout
the year and is always looking for
personal donations, volunteers or
corporate sponsors.
During the 2017-2018 school
year we were able to fund over
$45,000 to grant recipients and
fund exciting initiatives such as
robotics programs and digital
learning tools for classrooms–
including Osmo and Blue Bots,
flexible seating, reading initiative
programs, aquaponics labs, film
equipment, the start of a virtual
reality lab at all three schools and
funds to begin the High School
Engineering Program – just to
name a few! We would not be
able to do these things without
community support.

get 20 almost-new ones. Also,
it’s a terrific way to support the
library.”

used by the library for new materials,
museum passes, and programs.

box is located at the bottom

Client Testimonial to Robin & Mark Spangenberg:
“We have the house of our dreams because of Robin and Mark. We showed up at an open house that they
were hosting just to check a place out, fell in love, and now it is ours. Robin and Mark are a tour de force of
real estate. We ended up using them to sell our house as well as using their suggestions for inspection, real
estate lawyer and mortgage broker.......they (and their allies) were all incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.”
– Stapels Family, Millis
