THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 3, 2025 Page 5 The Great Santa Debate! A major debat e occurred during a holiday party hosted by Mystic Valley Elder Services (MVES) at 630 Salem St. in Malden. Who is older, Santa Claus or resident Frank Cali?! Frank is 100 and a half years old, but isn’t Santa a good deal older? Residents had a good time debating the question with some good-natured teasing! Santa (aka resident Walter Clark) visits 630 Salem St. every year during several holiday events coordinated by MVES and the Malden Housing Authority.

With each of the 23,000 breaths your lungs take daily, they perform essential work to support overall health. Whether you’re managing asthma, quitting smoking, or simply looking to keep your lungs strong, here are some tips from the American Lung Association in Massachusetts to start the year right. 1. Get Regular Check-ups. Regular check-ups help prevent diseases, even when you are feeling well. This is especially true for lung disease, which sometimes goes undetected until it’s serious. During a check-up, your healthcare provider will listen to your breathing and you should share any concerns you may have. 2. Quit Smoking:The American Lung Association encourages people who smoke, vape or use tobacco to resolve to begin their quit journey in 2025 and provides tips and resources at Lung.org/ quit-smoking or call the LungHelpRESOLUTION | SEE PAGE 14 SABATINO/MASTROCOLA INSURANCE AGENCY 519 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 Auto * Home * Boat * Renter * Condo * Life * Multi-Policy Discounts * Commercial 10% Discounts * Registry Service Also Available Sabatino Insurance is proud to welcome the loyal customers of ALWAYS READY TO SERVE YOU: Our Staff are, Emma Davidson, Jeimy Sanchez, Josephine Leone, Marie D’Amore, Rocco Longo, Z’andre Lopez, Anthony DiPierro, Darius Goudreau, Laurette Murphy, Danielle Goudreau and Tina Davidson.
