And that ain’t easy in today’s fractured society. Here in Malden, we remember and we cherish friendships made and friendships to be made. Mike Hardiman is a retired Malden Constable on Patrol and a stone cold Maldonian – somebody I have always admired. He and his compadres meet on Friday mornings at Franny’s in Maplewood Square (thank the deity of your choice for a place like Franny’s) to solve not only Malden’s problems, not only the world’s problems, but to also bust each other’s beans as only old friends can. With that said, take it away Mike: “Getting together with a 50+ Job seekers May 1 – Interview Strategies May 15 – Interview Practice June 5 – Thinking Outside the Box June 12 – Marketing Plan The Library is excited to congroup of Malden High graduates that span 5 decades, with the exception of Lenny Iovino’s son who shows up every now and then, a youngster in his 40s, and is taking a picture of us if we can all stand still for a moment. The MC graduates haven’t showed up yet, but just after the picture was taken Bob McCarthy showed up. He graduated from MHS in 1973 and was an outstanding hockey player. The oldest member of the group is sitting at the head of the table, and is local legend, Bill Dempsey, he’s 99 and shows no sign of slowing down. I think the youngest member of the group is Dave Caiazzo, he has got his back to the camera and is talking to Sal ‘Butch’ Genetti. It’s a week before Christmas. Nobody’s talking about anything too serious this morning, just laughing a lot, and ribbing each other. Telling funny stories about each other in a good-natured way. Wishing each other Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, or just Happy Holidays. And next Friday it’ll be Happy New Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/Advocate.news.ma tinue off ering this program and encourages anyone interested to attend. Call the Malden Public Library with questions at 781324-0218; ask for Marita. Year wishes and after the new year, we can work on Martin Luther King’s holiday. And then we can look forward to Valentine’s Day. It just goes on and on. My favorite holiday is the 4th of July. Warm weather, fi reworks, cookouts, and swimming either in a lake or the ocean or a river on a hot day. That’s my cuppa tea. Just so everybody doesn’t think it’s an all-male group, we do have women members, they are all out doing last minute shopping (insert smiley face).
