THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Page 3 District plans audit of special education By Barbara Taormina T he School Committee unanimously supported Ward 7 committee member Michelle Luong’s call for an audit of services for all special education students in 2019 through 2020. “My concern has been, although we have tried to deliver services the best we could under the current circumstances, we have some special education students who have not received services,” said Luong adding there have been some inconsistencies across the district. Luong said she had spoken with families with special needs students who have requested services but have not been contacted by the district. “I would like this audit to prevent us from having children falling deeply through the cracks,” said Luong. “I think we need to start this summer and do a complete audit of special education services per student and see what services they did receive and what services they did not.” Fellow school committee member Adam Weldai said Luong had been communicating with families with special education students throughout the district. “She’s been helping folks in all wards, not just Ward 7,” said Weldai. “I’m thankful that she took his on.” vicesand to look at where we can do better for students who are being educated,” added Spadafora. Luong praised the district’s special education teachers who she said go above and beyond for their students. She said the problem seems to be communication with the administration. She added she was particularly worried about parents and guardians who did not know how to go about accessing services for their children. Luong said she was hopMichelle Luong School Committee Member Ward 3 committee member Jen Spadafora said the audit would give school leaders a chance to look at everything within the district’s special education program, including costly outof-district placements. “I think we need to look at what we are providing,” said Spadafora. “The last thing we want is for families who are upset with the services, or lack thereof, and want to push for out-of-district placements that are going to cost a lot of money.” But Spadafora said even more important than the money is having students educated in the city where they live with their peers. “I think it’s important that we look at this audit to make sure we are providing sering for a report on special education services at the committee’s fi rst meeting in the fall. She said the report would need to be detailed and include input from families. “We need to poll parents and see exactly what services their child received,” she said adding that she wanted to prevent a 30 percent response from families. Luong said a full audit will give the committee a clear picture of special education services. “From there, we can say what the plan is to fi x it, because we are clearly going to see some defi cits,” she said adding that she hopes the problem is limited to a handful of cases. Superintendent John Oteri said an audit could be done over the summer and that he would update Luong on results. 505 Broadway Everett, MA 02149 Tel: 617-387-1120 www.gkdental.com • Family Dentistry • Crowns • Bridges • Veneers/Lumineers • Dental Implants • All on 4 Dental Implants • Emergency Dentist • Kid Friendly Dentist • Root Canals • Dentures • Invisalign Braces • Snap On Smile • Teeth Whitening We are the smile care experts for your entire family AUTOTECH 1989 SINCE Is your vehicle ready for the Summer Season?!!

I have the best co-workers and I love what I do. Here we are, distanced from our consumers and each other, but as an agency we’re stronger than ever. I’m so proud of us.” Todisco’s nominator had this to say about her: “Katie is someone who strives to do everything she can to benefit the older adults in her care as well as other consumers served by MVES. Through the many years she has worked here, I have noted that she is very thoughtful and thorough in her approaches to serving people in need. Katie is a very creative person and quietly, without seeking fanfare, will go the extra mile to make certain all avenues are explored in her advocacy for the needs of her consumers. She clearly brings a positive energy and commitment to her job and goes above and beyond in carrying out her daily tasks.” The spotlight award is given to a MVES employee who has gone above and beyond typical job expectations, provided outstanding customer service, or performed distinctive achievements that impact the employee’s department and MVES.

The food boxes, which contain hot dogs, sausages and sausage patties or chicken, are free to the recipients, so it is a form of “food pantry” provided to Massachusetts by the USDA. The initial delivery took place last week at the Stoneham Council on Aging, where 100 boxes were dropped off. Council on Aging Director Maureen Canova and her staff will be delivering these boxes to those older adults in need in the Stoneham community.

Levine I t is said in Malden: today, tomorrow and yesterday...” Fifteen years ago, Malden/ Medford funnyman John Pinette was living large, so to speak. The year 2005 saw him “kill it” touring the country as Edna Turnblad in “Hairspray.” Critics and fans loved it. John was also riding high with his one-hour comedy special “John Pinette: More Than a Woman” as well as his newly released DVD, “I Say Nay Nay.” For those Maldonians that may be unaware, John was one of those “observational comedians” who, aptly, appeared in the very last episode of “Seinfeld.” John had a beautiful soul and left many grief-stricken friends and family members, at the tender age of 50 dying from a pulmonary embolism. You are not forgotten, big guy. If you’ve driven down Seaview Ave. recently, you surely have noticed the outstanding makeover 45 Seaview has been receiving. Feels as though they’ve been working on it since the Obama administration, but it is worth every minute they’ve put into it.

Thank you to whoever is responsible for rehabbing this property. Taking into account the historical significance of this gorgeous link to Malden’s past for another generation to admire. It’s relentless. Word came via The late Mike Walsh proudly wearing his “Parts Unknown” game shirt.

We found a small Mexican restaurant with a bar and a dining room; we chose the dining room so we could reflect on our day. As we waited for drinks, I heard the flame, a flicker at first and then soon we were caught in the middle of an inferno of piano mixed with what appeared to be some incoherent ‘frantic mania.’ I instantly knew who, and what I was hearing (based on descriptions/legend) It has to be Preacher Jack! I confirmed this with the waiter and then approached this thin, long piano prodigy with arms made of wire and introduced and explained we had mutual friends. That meeting spawned what I would call a friendship that culminated in a recording session arranged by Gina who at the time was running a premiere studio that happened to have a SWEET Steinway Baby Grande.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Page 7 BUDGET | FROM PAGE 1 Debbie DeMaria threw a tiny wrench into the budget process with five proposed cuts that would have saved the city $113,500. “I believe each and every line item needs review,” said DeMaria. And while she acknowledged her proposed cuts were relatively small, she added that “many crumbs make a cake.” DeMaria proposed cutting $52,743 for salaries for part-time staff at the Senior Center. She said the salaries are paid through a grant and should not be in the budget. She also proposed cutting $13,260 for a youth activities counselor at the Malden Teen Enrichment Center since the position is not going to be fi lled. DeMaria also proposed cutting the Police Department’s line item for gasoline from $100,000 to $80,000 and reducing the $50,000 allocated for bullet-proof vests to $25,000. And she called for cutting the $5,000 budgeted for prisoner meals down to $2,500. The only cut that won any support from the Finance Committee was the proposal to reduce the Police Department’s funding for gas. It was briefl y discussed and rejected by the committee. The other proposed cuts died on the fl oor for lack of a second. Controller Chuck Ranaghan said the grant that pays salaries for Senior Center staff is being used to fund three fulltime employees, and cutting the money for part-time workers would mean adding funding for the full-time employees to the budget. Committee members also had questions about the shelflife of bullet-proof vests and the requirement to provide meals to prisoners. “I’m not saying I wouldn’t vote for these cuts, but if I do, it will be in September,” said Condon Ward 7 Councillor Neal Anderson also said he felt the council should wait to hear from the state about local aid. “We’ve all been getting letters about defunding the police,” said Anderson, who added that the Malden Police Department seems to be in good shape. “I do hope we can work with the police on shifting responsibilities and stop sending them on calls that have the potential to escalate when someone with a badge and a gun shows up to confront a member of the community,” said Anderson, adding that the police should not have to respond to calls that ask them to chase kids out of city parks. The Finance Committee recommended the full council approve the budget proposal, which they did on a 10-1 vote, with DeMaria voting against it.

On Monday, MHS principal Chris Mastrangelo made a formal proposal to rename the Pathways Program the “Ron Janowicz House.” “Over his 42 years in education he has been a champion for all students, particularly students who had significant roadblocks in their lives,” Mastrangelo said of Janowicz, in making his request. “Mr. J would do whatever it took to see that kids were successful.” “He would meet them in their houses, the library, a coffee shop, or the hospital. He created after school hours to meet the needs of the kids,” Mastrangelo added. “His positive outlook on life is contagious and the genuine care for his students is evident.” To measure the size of the honor proposed for the outgoing Janowicz, the existing four houses at MHS are named Boyle, Brunelli, Holland and Jenkins. Boyle House named for Arthur P. Boyle The Boyle House is named in honor of former longtime headmaster Arthur P. Boyle, who led the school from the end of the 1960s through the early 1980s, as well as leading the boys’ basketball team to a pair of state titles. The newest MHS building bears his name as well. The Brunelli House is named for Donald Brunelli, a former teacher, department head, coach and class advisor, who died suddenly at age 41 back in 1993. The oldest-standing MHS building bears his name as well. Holland House is named for Marguerite Holland, an influential Malden School Committee member from the 1950s through the early 1970s and mother of former Superintendent of Schools Dr. George Holland. Jenkins House (and the Jenkins Auditorium) are named for Thornton Jenkins, the longest-serving MHS principal in school history, at the helm 28 years (and parts of two World Wars), from 1915-1943. Malden Superintendent of Schools John Oteri also had high praise for Janowicz at Monday’s meeting. “Personally, in my 30 years in the field of education, Ron Janowicz is one of the top two or three people I have met who has worked with students to the level of effectiveness he has had,” Supt. Oteri said. “He [Janowicz] will be an incredibly difficult act to follow. His name is synonymous with the Pathways Program. His dedication, patience and passion for our students is nothing short of inspiring,” Supt. Oteri added. Janowicz came to the Malden schools in 1982 after four years as a special education teacher and sports coach in New Hampshire. He was hired to design and develop the Malden High School Alternative Program. After 10 years of leading the program, then housed off-site of MHS on Jackson Street in Malden Square, he moved on to create the transitions program at Malden High School, which he ran until 2010. In 2010 the Pathways Program began at Malden High School under Janowicz’s direction. A long reach of influence for Janowicz MHS principal Mastrangelo told the members of the sheer reach of Janowicz’s influence of his nearly four decades with the Malden Public Schools. “During his time in Malden [Janowicz] has worked with thousands of students. He remembers their names, their stories, their disappointments and their accomplishments,” Mastrangelo said. “Countless numbers of students have earned their diplomas because of his efforts and support. He has served as a mentor for all students, teachers and administrators. Beyond that, he has PATHWAYS | SEE PAGE 12 Summer is Here!

After winding through the city, the caravan stopped at the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) in Malden, where Malden Education Association President Deb Gesualdo, Teacher Jessica Gold Boots and MTA President Merrie Najimy taped the MTA list of demands for reopening and reimaging public schools. Those demands include full funding of the Student Opportunity Act, which promised to increase state educational aid to districts with high percentages of low-income students and English language learners. The MTA is also calling for more teachers and staff with a priority on recruiting and hiring educators of color. There is also a demand to eliminate MCAS testing and ensure that curriculum is actively antiracist, inclusive and representative of the school community’s values.

Gone before we could give them a proper “so long friends.” You may or may not have known these two fine young men, Danny “Mr. Mal’s Market” Moore and Mike “Mr. Signor Pizza” Walsh, but they were an important/vital slice of the fabric of Malden/Green St. Park life. The community as a whole, I really should say. Both so large in the hearts and minds of their many friends. “Parts Unknown!” A time and a place. The playing fields were their second home. Days were long; the nights, even longer. We never wanted for 10 to play a game of hoop, 18 for a pick-up game of baseball/softball, or a pair of Converse Chuck Taylors “hot” off the press! Most times a cooler stuffed with Schlitz sitting close by! Moyer and Wally will always be part of that time and space. Those of us of “a certain age” can still see them vividly in our mind’s eye. That place we yearn to revisit, for just one day. Not saying that Malden of today ain’t the bomb, but Malden in that hazy, crazy past inside our heads was a wicked special place to be.

A fully safe school means a place where the whole child is encouraged to learn and grow,” said Gold Boots. At the beginning of June, School Business Manager Toni Mertz presented a level-funded budget that is the same amount as last year. However, to cover the new fiscal year’s negotiated raises and other contractual obligations, some cuts were made to balance the budget. The original proposal called for cutting three administrative positions, 13 part-time positions and six support-staff members and defunding 26 unfilled positions as well as trimming back the allocation for maintenance and operations. This week , Spadafo - ra thanked everyone who worked on the budget, especially Mertz, who was able to tweak the original budget proposal and restore seven positions. Bonnie Littlejohn’s part-time job providing classroom support at the Beebe School was not one of them. During the public hearing, Littlejohn asked the School Committee to consider reinstating the support staff if funding becomes available. “It holds much value for the children,” said Littlejohn, adding that support staff recognize and help students who need additional academic support. Several Malden High teachers told the School Committee that eliminating an unfilled school adjustment counselor position at the high school would be a significant loss for students. “The work they do is integral to the comings and goings of our students,” said Malden High School Teacher Chris Giordano. “The position is essential to our students’ success.” Elizabeth Gibbons, who also teaches at Malden High, said the social/emotional well-being of students has been disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the nationwide demand to end systemic racism following the murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer. “That social/ emotional wellbeing is as important as academic success,” said Gibbons. “Students need an adult they can trust and go to.” Spadafora said the School Committee has consistently approved resources and staff to support students’ social/ emotional well-being. “If the money is there in August or September, we would look to fund social/emotional support positions,” she said. School Committee Member Adam Weldai also acknowledged the importance of school adjustment counselors and social/emotional support for students. “The biggest priority for us was making sure that people who were employed stay employed,” said Weldai. “When we see more funding coming in, that’s at the top of the priority list.” The Budget Subcommittee expects to be back crunching numbers in the fall when the district learns how much aid Malden schools can expect from the state and whether positions can be reinstated or more cuts will be needed.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Page 11 Volunteers still needed at Bread of Life to distribute food to neighbors D espite the economy opening up more and more, Bread of Life (BOL) saw the highest number of families ever accessing its Malden food pantry on June 19: 186 families served in two hours. Prior to that, the need for the pantry had peaked at 185 families at the end of April during the height of the pandemic. With the need for food continuing, so is the need for volunteers. “Since the onset of the pandemic, Bread of Life has benefitted from an outpouring of volunteers from the community,” said BOL Executive Director Gabriella Snyder Stelmack, “But the good news that more and more people are returning to work means that we are losing great volunteers.” Among those still struggling with food insecurity are those waiting to be called back to work, those waiting for unemployment benefits, families self-isolating with the virus, and elderly and disabled residents.

Many expressed the desire to help those in need, saying things like • “I’m not working. School is closed until September. I want to help others in need.” • “I want to make a positive difference. Bread of Life has been doing this as long as I remember.” • “I’m in a position where I am able to do something meaningful to help others.” • “I’ve always worked in social service. It’s part of who I am.” • A teenaged boy who has been volunteering with the pantry for two years said, “I like being part of a team doing good things.” • Many BOL volunteers over the years first came to BOL when they needed help, as this volunteer recalled: “When I struggled to make ends meet a few years ago, Bread of Life kept me and my family afloat. Now I get to do the same for others.” According to BOL Pantry Coordinator McKay Russo, the pantry has been offering as many as 186 free food orders during its twice-weekly distribution. Each contains a minimum of four bags, nearly 40 pounds of quality food – double what the pantry was doing before COVID-19. BOL initiated in March a free grocery delivery service to seniors, disabled and residents who need to self-isolate. Volunteers have delivered to over 500 households in 10 communities. Volunteer Karen Buck said, “Now I benefit from meeting other dedicated people and learning new skills. I am hooked!” Feagley noted: “Although Bread of Life’s income has grown, it has not doubled. The pandemic hit just as they were ramping up their ‘Under One Roof’ capital campaign. The goals are to develop the 54 Eastern Avenue site to include a commercial kitchen, dining room/multi-service hall, storage for food and supplies, walk-in cooler and freezer, and offices. The development includes partnering with the nonprofit Metro North Housing Inc. to build affordable efficiency apartments to house 14 single women and men leaving homelessness.” Katie summed it up best: “I want to give hope.” Feagley commented: “We are living in and through challenging times. Jobs disappear. Schools close. Bills go unpaid. People choose between paying full rent or buying food. Lives can fall apart. Much seems hopeless.

Page 12 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Mystic Valley Regional Charter School first in Mass. to cancel football season First school in state to punt away season, despite opener still three months away By Steve Freker A Malden school has become the first in Massachusetts to punt away its football season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They were the very first charter school to put down roots in the greater Boston community, over 20 years ago, when the doors swung open on Laurel Street at the former Maplewood Elementary School. Since then the Mystic Valley Regional Charter School has had plenty of other firsts. The latest one came in midMarch when Mystic Valley became the first school in the state to announce a cancellation of classes due to the coronavirus. That announcement was made way back on March 5, a full week before a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO), and 11 days ahead of Governor Baker's order closing all schools in Mass. until at least early April. First school in state to cancel football This week it happened again when it was learned that the Mystic Valley administration canceled the upcoming football season, the first of over 300 high school teams in all of Massachusetts to do so, citing concerns over COVID-19. According to news reports published online, a statement released by Mystic Valley Superintendent Alexander Dan cited a survey conducted this spring "showed only 16 parents of players who particiPATHWAYS | FROM PAGE 8 served as an inspiration; he is what a teacher is supposed to be.” In addition to assisting Mastrangelo in forwarding the naming request to the School Committee, Supt. Oteri also said the administration is also considering a pated in the school’s football program last year felt comfortable making a commitment to varsity football for the fall season." This led to the administration’s decision to cancel the season and work toward creating a non-contact alternative for Mystic Valley athletes, according to the statement.According to reports, the school distributed a letter to student-athletes via social media announcing the decision to cut football for 2020, despite the season-opening kickoff being about three months away. Move is made before any MIAA decisions Also, the move was made in advance of any guidance for fall sports emanating from the overseer of high school athletics, the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA). High school athletic directors and principals have been anxiously awaiting news from the MIAA regarding football and fall sports in general, before deciding on how to proceed. No other school in Massachusetts had announced any decisions on fall sports to date, Mystic Valley being the first. Behind the scenes, a number of athletic directors and fall coaches have speculated about the potential risks of fall sports like football and soccer and the close contact involved with both, in practices and games. Cross country teams and their close group running has also been cited as a potenrecommendation of the Barr Foundation to create a House Principal’s position to oversee the Pathways and PACE programs. Janowicz had supervised them as a program manager. To that end, Supt. Oteri said, the program manager position has been posted as a one-year, interim position, with the intention of the TIME OUT: Mystic Valley football coach Danny Kelly and last year's Eagle football captains.

Another fall sport is girls’ volleyball, played in close quarters and indoors. Mystic Valley second-year head coach Danny Kelly was he was surprised and disheartened by the decision to cancel the season this early, in June. In an online report, the Eagles coach said he found out Saturday, but had to keep it to himself until school families were informed. new House Principal position, hopefully, being in place for the 2021-22 academic year. “In every sense of the word, he [Janowicz] is an angel on earth. He leads with his heart and at all times treat students and their families with respect,” Supt. Oteri said, “and always with a smile.” Season taken away three months in advance “It’s one thing if the MIAA said there was no season, we’d be OK with that. But to have this taken away from them when the season is still three months away was tough," Coach Kelly told a Boston newspaper in an online report.“We were just getting ready to start our offseason conditioning program. Then I have to tell them that their tribute than to officially rename the Pathways Program to The Ron Janowicz House,” Mastrangelo said. “His name should be a reminder to all that enter Malden High School of what the concept of educating the whole child should be.” After School Committee “I can think of no better Members Adam Weldai and season was over, it was taken away from them. It was not an easy thing to do, especially for the seniors." If Mystic Valley's decision proves to be a harbinger of what is to come and fall sports becomes a casualty of the coronavirus, it would become a painful, one-two punch to high school sports, following the cancellation of spring sports season, announced in late April. Jennifer Spadafora joined in expressing their own accolades for Janowicz, Weldai’s motion to send the request to the Policy Subcommittee for review was approved unanimously. The request will be discussed in September when the subcommittee meets next.

The Golden Tornado Club was first formed in the late 1950s by Roy Finn and a number of others. It was revived in the early 1980s and in the late 1990s and early 2000s, under the leadership of successive presidents Harry Chiasson and Domenic Fermano, the club began awarding scholarships to deserving senior student-athletes. Since the scholarship element began with the Golden Tornado Club, nearly 300 scholarships have been awarded, totaling over $200,000 for the recipients. “This scholarship program would not be possible if not for the generosity of our Golden Tornado members, through their dues and donations, and the support of our sponsors,” said Golden Tornado Club Malden High School Baseball and Track standout Ezra Kruckenberg, left, who was awarded the Bob Rotondi Scholarship, and Ishmael Sylus, right, the recipient of the William and Mary Hampton Scholarship, receive their checks from Athletic Director Charlie Conefrey.

Juneteenth dates back to June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news that the Civil War had ended and enslaved people were freed. In 2007, Massachusetts became the 25th state to recognize Juneteenth Freedom Day as a holiday. For information, visit https://www.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Page 15 Nonprofit tribute site Mourningamerica.org grows to 7,500+ COVID-19 victims With spikes reported around the country, grassroots site has become a solace for families suffering losses from COVID-19 W Site allows families, friends to post free obits, photos and messages of loved ones who have died “This is a disheartening ith the nation’s death t ol l app r oaching 130,000 victims of COVID-19, a public that has largely been trapped indoors has grappled with ways to honor those who have died from COVID-19. The nonprofit tribute site www. mourningamerica.org is one of the first to provide that opportunity, and since its recent launch it has added more than 7,500 victims, which sadly include 250 healthcare workers and 54 couples. The site, a self-funded effort by South Carolina couple Dermot Jevens and Rebecca Heiss, is the only tribute platform that allows people to add their own obituaries, photos and memories of loved ones. Also, visitors to the site can search and find victims already added and leave their own messages. trend,” said Jevens. “Every time our numbers go up, it’s a reminder of another soul we have lost. Rebecca and I take solace in the fact that MourningAmerica.org is providing a way for mourners to grieve when they can’t do so in person because of social distancing. When the site hit 7,500 victims, it was a reminder that we have a long way to go and the number is going to increase.” “We designed mourningamerica.org as a way for people to honor the victims, and it has become so much more: a cathartic experience to express love and loss for families and friends that have come from this virus,” said Heiss. “We get a pit in our stomach every time we see the numbers increase, but it also reminds us more people are finding us and finding use for us.” Unlike traditional obituaries that appear in newspapers and online, victim profiles on mourningamerica.org are free to post to anyone in the United States. (Note: Editors at the site verify each passing and the information included.) People can simply go onto the site and click “Share Their Story” and add details about their loved one, or add info to existing stories. Mourningamerica.org, whose tagline is “More Than Just a Number,” was created by Jevens and Heiss as a way to honor the lives lost from the virus. Neither have backgrounds in tech, web building or fighting infectious diseases. The project was a labor of love borne from the heart. “People are suffering great losses while being isolated MAPC releases town-by-town data on housing assistance needed due to COVID-19 financial crisis T he Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC), a regional planning agency in Boston, has released municipal-level estimates of the housing assistance that might be needed in Massachusetts due to COVID-19, and it paints a dire picture of how much financial help may be required to keep thousands of Massachusetts residents housed once the state eviction moratorium and federal CARES Act benefits expire later this summer. A temporary boost of $600 per week in unemployment benefits will expire on July 30, and a statewide eviction moratorium is set to end on August 18. Once those stop-gap measures end, research by MAPC shows, nearly every city and town in Massachusetts will be facing a great need for housing assistance come late summer. “Almost no community will be exempt from a substantial need for housing assistance once CARES Act supplements and the eviction moratorium expire,” said MAPC Socioeconomic Analyst Sarah Philbrick, a lead author of the research. “Considering this data doesn’t include undocumented workers or self-employed workers who have filed, it’s likely these estimates underestimate need, although that also depends on how many workers return to work over the next few months. Cities and towns would do well to start planning for the impacts now, or they may see large numbers of vulnerable residents displaced by evictions or foreclosure.” This latest analysis is the newest in a series of MAPC reports on the statewide housing insecurity implications of widespread layoffs. Past reports looked at the gap between unemployment assistance and projected housing need in the early weeks of the pandemic, followed by a deeper dive into the demographics of impacted households and large-scale impacts of unemployment at the industry level. Estimates of needed housing assistance are determined by four main factors: population of each city or town, its unemployment rate, its cost of housing, and pre-COVID occupations and wages. The three largest cities in the state – Boston, Worcester and Springfield – have some of the largest total need of housing assisfrom their family and friends at a vulnerable time,” said Jevens. “They need an outlet to express their feelings and honor those who have passed.” “MourningAmerica.org is our way of giving people a voice at a time when they need it most,” said Heiss. “People are trapped at home, unable to be with their loved ones, and are now experiencing profound loss. We hope this platform allows them a much-needed way to share their feelings and honor the victims of this deadly disease.” Jevens is a board-certified veterinary surgeon and entrepreneur who currently serves as Treasurer/ Secretary for the American Animal Hospital Association. Previously, he was Senior Vice President, Collaboration and Innovation, for Compassion-First Pet Hospitals, where he was responsible for culture development, all specialty recruiting and innovation at a 41-hospital specialty and ER network. Jevens also served as founder/CEO of Upstate Veterinary Specialists, a multi-specialty animal hospital with locations in Greenville, S.C., and Asheville, N.C. Heiss, Ph.D. is founder and CEO of Icueity, a mobile application that focuses on building self-awareness (available in June). Her new book, “Instinct,” will hit the shelves in 2021.

Some of the state’s smallest communities, like Gosnold, Petersham and Phillipston, have very high rates of unemployment compared to their population, while other communities that have extremely high housing costs – such as Wellesley, Weston, Dover and Sherborn – rank among the highest average dollar amount needed in assistance per household. “As the state slowly begins to reopen, some parts of the economy may rebound and there could be a drop in unemployment need,” said Philbrick. “Nevertheless, we hope our research is helpful as cities and towns try to get their arms around the extent of the potential housing and financial insecurity facing their residents in the months ahead, and as they plan for recovery and neighborhood stability.” MAPC will continue to make regular updates to their ongoing analyses of the impact of COVID-19 on the region’s housing and economy. New test available to determine protective immunity to COVID-19 A RCpoint Labs, the diagnostic testing lab franchise with nearly 100 locations across the United Staes, is partnering with Ethos Laboratories to bring a brand-new test to market that measures protective immunity to COVID-19. Tru-Immune by Ethos Laboratories is the first Surrogate Viral Neutralization Test (sVNT) to evaluate COVID-19 protective immunity in the United States. Unlike other tests currently on the market, Tru-Immune detects the presence and magnitude of neutralizing antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus (which causes COVID-19) that could prevent future infection. “This test will provide personalized information that has not been available before,” said ARCpoint Franchise Group CEO John Constantine. “This is the first test that can give you an indication of how effective your antibodies are at fighting COVID-19. We are excited about what this means for individuals, and the value it provides as they make decisions about returning to work and other activities safely and with confidence. ARCpoint Labs is proud to be the first national network of collection sites for Tru-Immune as we roll this out.” According to a recent article published by Johns Hopkins University, neutralization assays are the “gold standard” for determining if a patient has effective antibodies and protective immunity against SARSCoV-2. “Tru-Immune is the first test to evaluate protective immunity to the SARS-CoV-2 virus that does not require the use of live virus, cell culture or even pseudovirus,” said Ethos Research and Development’s Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Joshua Gunn. “These significant innovations allow us to process samples in less than three hours, compared to viral neutralization tests that can take three to five days to produce results.” Blood tests capable of detecting anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies have flooded the market, but none can measure the viral neutralizing capacity of these antibodies. “If test reTEST | SEE PAGE 19

Page 16 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 avy nior avvyvavvy S oreniioor coronavirus? Hypertensive Helen Dear Helen, If you have high blood pressure, you defi nitely need to take extra care to protect yourself during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Research shows that people with hypertension are more susceptible to getting COVID-19, are more likely to develop severe symptoms if they do get sick, and are more likely to die from the infection, especially if they’re older. High Risk Links A weaker immune system is the key reason people with high blood pressure and other health problems are at higher risk for coronavirus. Long-term health conditions and aging weaken the immune system so it’s less able to fi ght off the virus. Nearly two-thirds of Americans over 60 have high blood pressure. Another concern that has been circulating, but was put to rest last month, were theories that the medications that are commonly prescribed to treat high blood pressure – ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) – could make patients more vulnerable to contracting COVID-19, and more susceptible to severe illness if they did become infected. But new research published in The New England Journal of Medicine last month found no risk linked to these medications. COVID Complications While pneumonia is the most common complication of the virus, it can also damage the cardiovascular system. That’s why people with high blood pressure, heart disease, and heart failure are at risk. High blood pressure damages arteries and reduces the fl ow of blood to your heart. That means your heart has to work harder to pump enough blood. Over time, this extra work can weaken your heart to the point where it can’t pump as much oxygen-rich blood to your body. Coronavirus can also damage the heart directly, which can be especially risky if your heart is already weakened by the eff ects of high blood pressure. The virus may cause infl ammation of the heart muscle, which makes it harder for the heart to pump. If you also have plaque buildup in your arteries, the virus may make those plaques more likely to break apart and cause a heart attack. Studies have shown that people with heart disease who get a respiratory illness like the fl u or earlier types of coronavirus are at higher risk for a heart attack. What to Do? While everyone needs to take precautions to prevent coronavirus, people with high blood pressure and other health conditions need to be extra careful. The best way to avoid getting sick is to stay home as much as you can. If you have to go out, wear a mask and keep at least 6 feet away from other people. And every time you come home, wash your hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds. Also, clean and disinfect all frequently touched surfaces like cell phones, countertops and doorknobs. The CDC also recommends that you have enough medicine on hand to treat high blood pressure and other health conditions. And stock up on over-the-counter medicines to treat a fever and other symptoms if you get sick. While a coronavirus vaccine isn’t available yet, you should stay up to date on your other important vaccines. The pneumococcal vaccines – Prevnar 13 and Pneumovax 23 – will prevent you from catching pneumonia on top of coronavirus. Also get a fl u shot in September or early October. Its symptoms are easy to confuse with coronavirus, which could make it harder for doctors to diagnose you if you do get sick. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

This Form is much simpler than the initial forgiveness loan application. This will not only streamline the process for the PPP borrowers, but also for the lenders that served as the intermediary between the SBA and the borrower. The lender is the one that has to actually approve the forgiveness loan application. In order to be eligible to complete Form 3508EZ, borrowers must meet the following criteria: 1. The borrower is self-employed and has no employees; or 2. Did not reduce the salaries or wages of their employees by more than 25% and did not reduce the number of hours of their employees; or 3. Experienced reductions in business activity as a result of health directives related to COVID-19 and did not reduce the salaries or wages of their employees by more than 25%.

Page 18 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Beacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen THE HOUSE AND SENATE: The House and Senate continued to hold remote sessions with just a few members in the chambers to avoid spreading the COVID-19. Most members watched and listened to the debate from their home or business office through their computers and voted via phone. Beacon Hill Roll Call records local senators’ votes on roll calls from the week of June 15-19. There were no roll calls in the House last week. EXPAND VOTING (S 2755) Senate 40-0, approved a bill that would provide registered voters three options to cast a ballot in the September 1 primary and November 3 general election including extended early voting periods, voting in-person on Election Day and votingby-mail. The House has already approved its own version of the bill. Last week, a six-member conference committee made up of three senators and three representatives was appointed to hammer out a compromise version that would pass both branches. The Senate measure requires an application for a voter to request an early voting ballot for the September 1 primary election to be mailed by Secretary of State Bill Galvin to all registered voters by July 15, 2020. Galvin will then mail a separate application to vote by mail in the General Election along with the voter booklet sent out in the fall. Another key provision allows early voting for the September 1 primary to take place from Saturday, August 22 through Friday, August 28. Early voting for the November 3 general election would be available from Tuesday, October 17 to Friday, October 30. The measure also expands absentee voting by allowing any person taking precautions related to COVID-19 to vote absentee via secure drop boxes that will provide a sanitary drop-off method. Other provisions impose safety measures to be taken at the polls to prevent the spread of the virus to voters and poll workers; allow cities and towns to count vote totals prior to Election Day, provide pre-addressed envelopes for voters to return their applications for an early ballot; requires Secretary Galvin’s office to create an online portal by October 1, 2020 to take some burden off the city and town clerk’s offices and make it as easy as possible for people to apply for General Election early voting ballots electronically. “Our goal with this legislation was to make it easier for people to exercise their fundamental democratic right to vote during these unprecedented times,” said Sen. Barry Finegold (D-Andover), the Senate chair of the Election Laws Committee. “This is the first time in the history of the commonwealth that we are offering early voting for primaries, sending out applications to vote by mail and counting ballots after Election Day.” MassVOTE Executive Director Cheryl Clyburn Crawford said while the organization is disappointed that voters will not automatically receive ballots this fall, she applauds the Senate for passing the legislation. “This Fall’s elections will undoubtedly prove challenging,” said Crawford. “Nevertheless, we believe the Senate bill passed today will provide local election officials the tools they need to run our elections this fall, while allowing voters to cast their ballot in a safe, secure manner.” “The elections bill passed today is a historic step that dramatically increases voting access in our commonwealth,” said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “This bill would allow voters, for the first time, to cast ballots by mail, vote early and safely vote in person— allowing residents to safely exercise their important right to vote during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Senate has always championed greater participation in our democracy, and I am proud that ideas we’ve originated over the years are contained in this bill.” (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Sen. Jason Lewis Yes MORE DETAILS ON ENSURING SAFE AND ACCESSIBLE ELECTIONS (S 2755) Senate 16-23, rejected an amendment that would replace a provision in the bill that requires Secretary Galvin, in conjunction with the Department of Public Health, to establish regulations requiring public health safeguards at early voting sites and polling places. The safeguards include requiring the distancing of voters and election officers, frequent use of sanitizers, appropriate clothing and the use of marking pens. The amendment includes many more specific details and ultimately allows cities and towns to make the final decision on what safeguards it wants to impose. The amendment includes requiring Galvin to provide comprehensive guidance to municipalities on designing polling locations to ensure six-foot physical distancing throughout the voting process; proper signage in and outside of the polling site; implement curbside voting for voters with physical or health limitations; establish a statewide volunteer portal so that all municipalities have adequate poll workers; planning for volunteer poll worker shortages and outreach, recruitment, and training of additional and reserve poll workers to ensure that the burden of administering the in-person election does not fall on older and vulnerable poll workers at greater risk to COVID-19. Another key detailed provision requires the guidance to include protection of poll workers with personal protective equipment, adequate access to cleaning supplies throughout the day, access to hand-washing and bathrooms with adequate soap, water and disposable paper towels and other public health measures to protect poll workers and voters from the spread of coronavirus. “I filed this amendment to ensure that our city and town clerks and their staffs, voting registrars, and voters are as safe as possible, at the election polls,” said Sen. Jamie Eldridge (D-Acton), the sponsor of the amendment. “While voting by mail will surely increase as a result of the Legislature’s actions in this bill, if we truly consider voting as a right, the state should be providing as much guidance, personal protection equipment, enforcement of physical distancing, and no-contact options for people to vote this fall … [The] pandemic has already resulted in challenges for cities and towns to find more election volunteers [and] this volunteer portal will also better support our municipal election clerks.” “[The bill itself] covered the majority of the concerns raised in [Sen. Eldridge’s amendment] … but in broader terms,” said Election Laws Committee chair Sen. Barry Finegold (D-Andover) who was leading the charge for the bill. He noted that he already had commitments from Galvin to implement the rest of Eldridge’s amendment that was not in the bill. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Jason Lewis No UNIFORM EARLY VOTING/ ABSENTEE BALLOT APPLICATIONS (H 2755) Senate 14-25, rejected an amendment that would standardize early voting/absentee ballot applications, ballots and permits including voter indication of early voting or absentee voting on applications to track non-voter-specific rates of early voting and absentee voting. “A uniform application and ballot would help to eliminate voter confusion and reduce processing inefficiencies and unintentional errors that could lead to potentially invalid ballots,” said the amendment’s sponsor Sen. Diana DiZoglio (D-Methuen.) “Clerks in my district have faced the issue of whether a ballot should count because the voter received or submitted the wrong type of ballot. No one’s vote should be excludible on account of a mistake in form. This amendment makes an investment in our electoral system that can reduce costs in the long run, by simplifying the process for requesting, receiving and returning ballots. With the financial burden the pandemic has imposed on the commonwealth, we must think outside the box and make investments that will provide reduced cost returns.” “I support options to limit confusion for voters and our clerks,” said Finegold who opposed the amendment. “However, there are different legal requirements for absentee voting and early voting by mail, which is why two separate applications are standard.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Jason Lewis No PROCESSING OF ABSENTEE BALLOTS (S 2755) Senate 10-29, rejected an amendment that would require absentee ballots only be processed during the normal hours of operation of the city or town hall and that a member of the board of registrars in the city or town representing the two leading political parties be notified about the time and location of the processing and be permitted to observe. “The purpose of this amendment is to create more safeguards around the expansion of absentee voting and the processing of absentee ballots during this election cycle,” said the amendment’s sponsor Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton). “I believe that it is necessary to add these layers of additional protection to minimize the risk of fraud and abuse with election ballots.” “I respect and understand what Sen. Fattman was trying to do with this amendment,” said Sen. Finegold. “Unfortunately, it is too prescriptive for what we are trying to do with this legislation. We’ve spoken with Secretary Galvin and are confident that his regulations will provide an opportunity for public observation.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Jason Lewis No VOTING BY MAIL APPLICATIONS (S 2755) Senate 39-0 approved an amendment to a section of the bill that requires Secretary Galvin to include early voting by mail applications with the voter information booklet that gets sent to every Bay State household in the fall. The amendment guarantees that the cover or exterior envelope of the voter booklet will clearly state that voting by mail applications are included inside, and that the booklets and applications will be mailed to households by October 5. It also requires that any vote by a select board or city or town council to relocate regular polling places be both public and recorded and directs the secretary of state to conduct a public awareness campaign to promote the new voting options included in the bill. “I’m proud that the Senate unanimously adopted my amendment … in a bipartisan show of support for eq

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 26, 2020 Page 19 uity and education when it comes to ballot access and vote by mail,” said Sen. Becca Rausch (D-Needham). “This amendment … enhances voter education and outreach promotes government transparency. “We know that historically, Black and Latinx voters rely on in-person polling places, and that changes to those locations, especially at the last minute, have a disproportionate impact on voters of color,” continued Rausch. “Thanks to my amendment, if city and town officials vote to relocate regular polling places, the votes must be both public and recorded. This is a crucial change for government transparency—if our local elected officials are going to make these changes just weeks before an election, it’s critical that they stand up and own their votes.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment). Sen. Jason Lewis Yes HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK'S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week.

More studies will be required to better understand how long the protective antibody response lasts in recovered patients, and this information will be key for developing effective vaccine strategies. “Behind the scenes, we’re all geeking out about the science involved in this test,” said Constantine. “But we’re most excited about how this information will help with vaccine developstituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed.

This marks the second sales tax holiday held under the new law signed by Governor Charlie Baker in 2018 that made the weekend an annual occurrence. “The annual sales tax holiday is an opportunity for us to support small businesses and consumers, and this year, it’s a great way to support our economy that’s been impacted by COVID-19,” said Governor Baker. “This pandemic has created enormous challenges for the Commonwealth’s small businesses, and the sales tax– free weekend is one way that we can encourage more economic activity to help Main Street businesses and local economies.” “As the Commonwealth continues its phased reopening process, we recognize that many small businesses continue to face difficulties,” said Lt. Governor Karyn Polito. “We are proud that our Administration worked with the Legislature to enact legislation making the sales tax holiday permanent and look forward to this year’s tax-free weekend and the economic activity that will come with it.” “We are proud to continREAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BUYER1 Kidd, Thomas J Chen, Li-Yang Fabros-Ruiz, Florentino Mayer, Elana A Yang, Chunjian Roca, Gamaliel J BUYER2 Gopilan, Jenna R Huang, Pei-Jung Aguado-Ruiz, Juanita SELLER1 Rideout, Kenneth Reynolds, Tricia L Kehtrmanesh, Ashkan Carvalho-Jose, Brian Zhang, Ju Rivers Edge Properties SELLER2 Rideout, Leslie Xiang, Minzhi ue supporting local businesses and consumers as we work with our colleagues in the Legislature to navigate the evolving COVID-19 environment while adhering to public health guidelines,” said Secretary for Administration and Finance Michael Heffernan. “The upcoming sales tax holiday will be an opportunity for people throughout Massachusetts to help support local companies and generate much-needed economic activity.” ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Divison Docket No. MI20P1189EA Estate of: Pauline Helen Giglio Also Known As: Pauline H.
