Recognized as a true icon in Malden city government, both during her tenure and to this day, she served as City Clerk and chair of the Board of Registrar of Voters for 33 years – from 1984 until her retirement in 2017 – the longest serving keeper of those posts in municipal history.

Rodrigues assured the Councillors that all those whose personal information was compromised in the attack were getting extensive follow-up safety assistance and that no reports of any malfeasance with any type of fraud to the Malden municipal employees had been reported to date. “It’s an ongoing investigation and we are very much on top of it,” Rodrigues said.

Page 2 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, March 17, 2023 Malden Reads Book Discussion with Mayor T he Malden Public Library and Malden Reads invite you to join Mayor Gary Christenson to discuss this year’s book selection, “They Called Us Enemy” by George Takei. The discussion will take place on Thursday, March 23, from 7-8 p.m. in the beautiful art galleries at the Malden Public Library. Light refreshments will be served. “They Called Us Enemy” is the memoir of “Star Trek” actor/author/activist George Takei, detailing his childhood when his family was deported to a Japanese-American internment camp, first in Santa Ana, Calif., and then moved to various camps throughout the West. Takei pivots between showing through his child’s eyes the emotionally staggering is how Takei’s father maintained his faith in the democratic system while the larger government failed him. “They Called Us Enemy” is Gary Christenson Mayor years in internment with expressing his later, more adult understanding of how deeply his parents suff ered during and after their imprisonment. Just as the fi rst graphic novel that Malden Reads has selected in its 13 years, and the use of the graphic novel is particularly effective for this story. Drawn in a straightforward style (and entirely kid-friendly), the pictures convey the sorrow and frustration of the characters honestly and directly. The picture of a sobbing parent or an enraged protester gets to the heart of Takei’s story, and Takei’s family consistently conveys pride and dignity despite the unfairness of their treatment. Malden Reads is a community reading organization run by residents in collaboration with the Malden Public Library and Urban Media Arts. Each season, we invite the city of Malden, Mass., to read a selected book and participate in a program of events, projects and community initiatives centered around the themes of the book. We look forward to having you join Mayor Christenson and the Malden community to discuss this book and share your thoughts about this important phase of American history.

A s you know, Saint Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, which is the start of spring in my book. Coming from an Irish family, Saint Patrick’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. Not only do I enjoy the free-fl owing revelry, but it is also a chance to reconnect with an integral part of my Irish culture and upbringing. There is nothing quite like marching in a parade to the entrancing sound of bagpipes. In fact, my very fi rst memory after being elected to the City Council was marching up Main Street behind the bagpipe corps for Veterans and Armistice Day. It was at that moment that I fully comprehended the importance of celebrating multiculturalism. Particularly in a diverse community like Malden! Irish culture holds an important place in American society. It represents both a story of repression and that of the underdog success story in American politics. For centuries, Irish immigrants have come to the United States in hopes of fi nding a better life. In fact, according to the Library of Congress “between 1820 and 1860, the Irish constituted over one third of all immigrants to the United States [and] in the 1840s, they comprised nearly half of all immigrants to this nation.” Anti-immigrant policies and discrimination made life unnecessarily diffi cult for those recent arrivals.

The Malden IT director explained that Malden has a robust protection system using Artifi cial Intelligence (AI) that is stronger and more protective from cyberattacks than systems in many communities nearby and around Massachusetts. “We were prepared for this type of attack and we will continue with post-incident steps when the next one comes,” Rodrigues said. “It is not if the next attempt comes, it is when,” he added. The cyberattack shut down nearly all of the city’s Informational Technology (IT) systems for a period of time on January 25, including internet access and municipal telephones, in addition to other IT programs city employees use to perform necessary tasks on a daily basis. While the City of Malden’s telephone system and email communication availability were restored quickly, municipal employees still had limited access to some city IT internal systems. An incident response team comprised of City of Malden police assets assigned to the FBI and their counterparts in the State Police and Secret Service cyber-crime units collected digital forensic data and assess scope of any potential data breach. More information on Director Rodrigues’ presentation will appear in next week’s Advocate. Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley is shown with his late father, Bobby O’Malley, and mother, Frances O’Malley. closures stating that “Irish need not apply.” This story of repression is not unique to the Irish. Generations of immigrants to America have faced and continue to face the same discrimination. Embracing diff erent cultures brings many benefi ts to American society as a whole. Here in Malden, residents have an ever-expanding option for high quality cuisines from all across the globe. We are truly so lucky to live in a multicultural community. Are you hungry for Irish pub food? Head on down to Hugh O’Neill’s for some Guinness beef stew or fi sh and chips. Would you rather Thai food? Take a short walk over to Crying Thaiger on Ferry Street. Caribbean food? Pop on over to the Island right next door. I could go on and on about the options. My advice is to come on down to Malden Center, walk around and explore! Now, for those of you who knew my dad – Bobby O’Malley – from his times hanging at the Irish American or the Italian American Citizens Club (Yes, he was allowed to join as a non-voting member because he was married to my Sicilian Mom), you know he loved food. My Dad enjoyed all kinds of food and loved that he married into a big Italian family because the wine and food never ran out. I am so thankful to my Mom and Dad for bringing me up in a family that embraced and celebrated diff erent people and cultures. It is said that embracing diff erent cultures can lead to greater empathy and respect for others. When we are exposed to diff erent cultures, we are forced to confront our own biases and assumptions. By learning about and appreciating other cultures, we can develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for the humanity and dignity of all people. I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment! So, on this Saint Patrick’s Day, I ask that you spend some time with your family, friends and neighbors and raise a glass to those who have come before and those who have yet to arrive! And may your home always be too small to hold all your friends! Sláinte! Ryan O’Malley City Councillor Ward Four Sen.

However, it was not the cake that brought John joy. It was the company and we were treated to some great conversation. Mr. Picardi considers Malden his forever home, even though he left Malden High School to enter the military along with his brothers and many friends. There is so much more to this story, but ‘you had to be there’ to understand! He told us many stories that day. He is a veteran of the D-Day landings at Normandy and served in other military theaters around the Globe during World War II. Even at 98, his memory is solid and the accounts he gave about his travels and war stories were better than anything you could read about in a history book. Speaking of books, he authored Profile For Love “A story of reality so shocking that it’s unimaginably true” – I believe this lead as he told us some stories that were horrifying, but we saw that it was important for him to tell us and that we listened. His first wife passed away from cancer, but he found love again and asked his new wife, Sue, if she would move back to the home he loved in Malden. She told me “of course I said yes, that is what he wanted” and she loves it here too! John is still active in local politics and asked us many questions at the same time he was showing us war memorabilia – his energy is amazing. Mr. Picardi has attended and spoke at a recent Planning Board Meeting and Maplewood Square Committee Meetings regarding the expansion of MVRCS fighting to keep Maplewood Square the homey place he remembers. This is probably why he is known to his friends as “Mr. Maplewood” – a wonderful resident who cares deeply about the City of Malden.

Levine t is said in Malden (State of the City) Musings... • Innovative, clever and wicked good were just some of the accolades being thrown around after the Malden State of the City Address debuted. Mayor Gary Christenson’s informative and witty parody of Saturday Night Live – “Malden Night Live” – lit up the interweb with MHS I ninth-grader Henry Lam stealing the show. • The 63-minute livestream event (watch it, you’ll like it!) had many highs with G Man having a ball poking fun at himself. His attempt to banish winter – “Can’t win ’em all” – was balanced with more mayoral statements, such as “Our strength as a community shows in everything we do.” Well played, Mayor Gary. • “Mayor Henry” Lam nailed his Need a hall for your special event?

He rocked his mini-Mayor suit and delivered his lines impeccably. Well done, young man. • I was impressed with the 286 lead water service lines replaced and the 38 Malden streets repaved. That’s great progress. Malden on the move! • Nobody works harder than the mayor and his staff – notably Addiction Recovery Resource Specialist Paul (Bella’s dad) Hammersley – at addressing the scourge of substance abuse disorder. The Bridge Recovery Center, partnering with Malden Cares and Malden Overcoming Addiction, has seen a 30% decline in overdoses and a 50% decrease in overdose deaths in the past two years. Amazing stats! Staff ed by an amazing group of selfl ess people. • Made my day to hear that the gift that keeps on giving aka the ARPA Funds will once again scholarship gift graduating seniors in Malden another grand and be used to upgrade my (former) home away from home, the only park that really matters, Devir. • I was also impressed with Building Inspector Nelson Miller in Inspectional Services, who is just killing it over there at 215 Pleasant St. They’ve streamlined the permit ordering process, making it much more effi - cient and “easy peasy” to acquire a building permit. That’s good news! Thank you, Mr. Miller. • Citizens of Malden lost (through retirement) two local giants who worked for the city they loved and grew up in.

I make no bones with my admiration for most everything that this administration has accomplished. A staff that lives and breathes Malden, from the Mayor all the way down the line, these individuals care. Nobody mails it in, especially hizzoner. Skeptical? Next Malden social event you see the mayor attend – whether it be a high school game, a senior event, a 4th of July celebration – check out who the last man standing is. Correct – Mayor Christenson. When most of us are bailing for comfortable recliners, hizzoner burns the midnight oil making sure the lights are off and the last picture has been taken (that’s a joke, son). No pretending. His heart and soul immersed in the job he loves so. • After watching this video, good luck to whomever throws their hat into this year’s mayoral race. Uphill battle for sure – trying to communicate to (voting) Maldonians why change is necessary when change isn’t necessarily a better option. That ain’t an easy sell. Ask Joe Kennedy III. He challenged Ed Markey for his senate seat last time round and could not articulate very well to the voting public why they should elect him over Eddie – how electing him would make their lives better. Tough sell, indeed. Picked up pieces while reading the Malden Sun-Times from April 5, 1973... “MiniMaxMessage – Bargain Classifi ed Corner”: • “Greetings from Hawaii! Donna, I love you so much that I hope me, and you stay together forever. I plan on coming home in a while so me and you can be happy again. Your marine boyfriend – Dennis.” • “Cottage for rent in Falmouth – July & August – $110 per week – 387-4202. Families only.” • “1971 Super Beetle V.W. One owner.

I now have Harper – left fi eld batting fi rst, Aparicio – shortstop batting second, Yaz – fi rst base batting third, Cepeda – DH batting fourth, Smith – center fi eld batting fi fth, Petrocelli – third base batting sixth, Fisk catching batting seventh, Evans – right fi eld batting eighth, and Griffi n – second base batting ninth.” • In Steve Clooney’s “Sport Scope”: a discussion centered around high school hockey and Junior A hockey – “For example, wouldn’t a Matty Marden or a

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, March 17, 2023 Page 7 George Hughes rather play an extended schedule, more professional rules, with a greater chance of getting into professional hockey, should that be their life calling.” My note: who remembers those two hockey studs? Matty went on to win a national championship with B.U. and to this day looks like he could still lace them up! • The Boston Arena will remain as the home base for GBL hockey operations in 1974. • Catcher Carl Byron will be lost to the MHS baseball team for the entire season, suff ering an appendicitis attack a couple of weeks before. • George Hughes is an offi cial ‘Face in the Crowd’ as he had that honor bestowed upon him by Sports Illustrated the week prior. • Fancy threads will be the order of the day on April 16, when the MHS Baseball squad debut their new double-knit uniforms. The uniforms are white with blue and gold-lined numbers. The caps are blue with gold visors. White cleats are being contemplated. • John O’Brien in his “Musings” column whomped numbers players upside the head: “As Robert Mitchum and Peter Boyle portray Eddie Coyle and his friends on fi lm the real Eddie Coyle’s of the world shoot it out in South Boston, supported by fi fty cents here and a dollar there contributed by people everywhere who play the number.” • This was a paid advertisement about 2" square placed on the front page: “Information wanted – did or did not one of our City Councilors escalate a parking violation of his automobile in the bus stop in front of Jordan Marsh into an arrest incident last Thursday, February 15th? The police don’t want to talk about it. Anybody having information on this matter should contact the Malden SunTimes at 321-4010.” • You could rent a Pinto at Econo-Car of Malden for $6 a day or 8 cents a mile. • According to Clark Drug at 200 Salem St., “Passover isn’t only matzo balls and a delicious assortment of over 30 varieties are available for sale.” As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character ‘Columbo’ would say, “Just one more thing, sir” – speaking of Senator Ed Markey, here’s a great story told by an old Y Rat, Richie Giannattasio: “Ed spent a great deal of time being fed by my parents at our Grace St house when he was in law school in the early 70’s. His girlfriend at the time lived in my parent’s house. One election day in the early 1990’s, after I had taken over the Grace St. home, Ed was walking up to the Glenwood School to work the polls. He had a small entourage and was wearing a suit, tie, and dress shoes. He saw me, along with my young sons, Richard, Michael, and David, playing hoop in the driveway. He walked in; called for the ball; and swished a 25-foot shot. He turned around, threw both hands in the air, and proceeded up the street. “A few years later, he did the exact same thing at a Y event. He was walking through the old gym, dressed in a suit, on his way to the pool area. He took a quick left onto the court; called for the ball; and hit a half-court shot. Then he proceeded to throw his hands up and immediately left. “As an aside, all 4 of my boys played HS basketball. Two of them were captains. Maybe Ed had an infl uence on them...because you know it wasn’t my Y ball background!” Postscript 1: Richie uses self-deprecating humor in his assessment of his hoop skills. Richie was as good as anybody at the old Y. Being a Y Rat, he knew where every dead spot in the gym was. Postscript 2: “Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you got til it’s gone?” Hard to believe it’s been 48 years this June that Richie’s little sister Andrea passed away.

Upon her father’s death, her mother returned the family to her native Malden. She attended Browne Junior High and Malden High School and graduated from UMass Boston, magna cum laude, with a B.A. in economics. Anderson worked for several years as a legislative aide to former state Rep. John C. McNeil (D-Malden) and was appointed City Clerk of Malden by the City Council in 1984, taking over for the well-known Joe Croken, who had also served many years in the post. She was City Clerk and chair of the Board of Registrar of Voters until her retirement in 2017, serving alongside five Malden mayors and several dozen city councillors. She helped and mentored three of her successors in the City Clerk's Office. After her retirement, Anderson continued to serve her community professionally, working on a variety of city issues, including the municipal charter, traffic codes and ordinances, serving as municipal hearing officer and managing Freedom of Information Act requests. City Council President Murphy noted how Anderson continued to offer her depth of knowledge and expertise in city government, even after her retirement. “This is who she was, a person who gave of herself to help others and make sure the city she loved prospered,” Councillor Murphy said. “Her presence and guidance will be missed beyond words, but her legacy will live on in the heart of our city.” Anderson was an avid quilter and in recent years a birdwatcher, particularly in California’s Central Valley, where her husband, Jim Chiavelli, worked for the University of California. From their home in Merced, Calif., they explored the West Coast, with particular fondness for mid-century modern furniture, used bookstores, interesting gin and fresh seafood. In addition to her husband, Jim Chiavelli, to whom she had been married since 1990, she is survived by her daughters, Emily Anderson Chiavelli and Margaret Celestia Chiavelli; two sisters, Judith Randall of Lynnfield and Lillian Burbank of Maine; a nephew, Jay Sears, and three nieces, Rachael Anderson, Victoria Gordon and Alexis Burbank; her in-laws, James F. and Mary Chiavelli of Nashua, N.H.; and many cousins, great-nieces and great-nephews, along with her longtime “second family,” the Malloys/McInerneys. She was also the sister of the late Robert Anderson. A memorial service will be held at 6 p.m. on Friday, March 24, at Weir MacCuish Family Funeral Home (144 Salem St., Malden), with visiting hours from 3 to 6 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family requests to please consider a donation to the Malden Public Library (26 Salem St., Malden MA 02148) in Karen’s name to support the library archives. City Councillor, Karen was there to guide me through the freshman years.” “Malden has truly lost a legend when it comes to public service,” said Mayor Gary Christenson. “I worked with Karen as a member of the School Committee, City Council and as Mayor and the one thing that was consistent throughout was that when you needed an idea or an understanding of a complex issue, Karen was the one we called.” “Even after she retired, we were still going to her because

Page 10 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, March 17, 2023 Malden’s Municipal Language Access Provision Expands, Improves City's coordinator gives update to City Council; cites data obtained from new City Hall multilingual phone line By Steve Freker fi rst language is not English. On Tuesday night, the coorL ook at any list, poll or data set available, and the same answer is evident: Malden is one of the most diverse communities in Massachusetts. That designation was proven by the granddaddy of all data – the U.S. Census – which showed that for the fi rst time in its nearly 400-year history, Malden is offi cially a “minority-majority” city. Nearly half of Malden's now 66,000-plus (and growing) residents were born in a country other than the United States. That is why Mayor Gary Christenson and the Malden City Council teamed up to take the issue of language diversity and bring it to the forefront about one year ago. A tiered plan to tackle language diversity and make accessibility to municipal departments and resources one of the city’s highest priorities was put into place, using federal grant money. The Council approved a $350,000 expenditure in a multiyear approach to “bring City Hall to the people,” particularly its residents whose dinator hired to lead this push, Elena Martinez, gave the Councillors a positive update fi lled with progress on the plan they approved. Call ‘I Speak’ for language access The overlying message to Malden residents of any language, origin country or culture is now: Call this number – 617-865-2273. This program, called “I Speak,” connects any caller, speaking any language, to a City Hall-connected live interpreter who will fi rst ask the caller what help they need – in the language with which they are most comfortable speaking. The interpreter will then stay on the line with the caller, should the caller be speaking a language other than English, and connect them to the appropriate department in City Hall. The interpreter will also take the call to the Police, Fire and School Department if needed. Further, the interpreter from Rosetta Languages, a Malden-based translation company, will stay on the line and help plan a callback to the caller, to resolve the reason for the call. Martinez said this breakthrough language access line, which is not available in many communities in Massachusetts, has proven to be an extremely valuable asset to Malden residents. Data accumulation from language line is key It has also been valuable to the city in accumulating data from actual residents in need of services. The data can be used in a lot of ways, she explained, particularly in determining where people in need of language access live, which languages they need to be able to speak freely and how they need assistance. “The top three language access requests have been in Portuguese, Spanish and Arabic,” Martinez said, “and the top reasons they are calling is that they are looking for help with housing issues like rent or eviction. They also are asking how they can fi nd a job, due to some lanElena Martinez, Malden’s Language Access Coordinator, on Tuesday night delivered a detailed presentation to the Malden City Council after approximately one year of overseeing a new municipal initiative toward language access to services for Malden residents. (Advocate Photo) guage barrier issues.” This data matched the numbers apparent in the latest 2020 Census, which showed Malden’s Hispanic-Latino-South American population as the fastest-growing since the last Census, with the numbers of the Arabic population right behind them, percentagewise. “It is all about opening up lines of communication and expanding the outreach eff orts of every city department to service our residents, some of them who need help the most,” Martinez told the Councillors. “The multilingual line [at City Hall] receives many calls every day. Every call is handled, and the caller is directed where they want to go to ask about a city service or for help.” According to the city’s website, where the language access line is listed on the website (www.cityofmalden.org) under “Services,” it is defi ned: “The City Hall Language Access Line will connect all callers, via interpreter, to all municipal services and opportunities. It is a free service for the community to reach out to City Hall and ask questions about services, voting, to register complaints, etc.” Information on specifi c city Wards being put together Martinez said that in addition to compiling data that can be broken down to use in future decision-making about language access, she and her assistants are in the process of sifting the data to create folders for each of the city’s eight wards to further identify trends and provide information for the city councillors and city departments. “We intend on partnering with each one of the city councillors. When you are meeting with your ward you will have Call 617-865-2273 to reach “I Speak” – the Malden City Hall Language Access Line – and access all municipal departments in any language the caller designates with the free assistance of a live interpreter. better idea of which particular area and neighborhood has needs and what those needs are,” said Martinez, who also noted that the city is still hiring Language Ambassadors to assist in this process. “I can’t believe how much you’ve accomplished in one year,” said Councillor-at-Large Carey McDonald, who noted the success of the fi rst language-based Town Hall recently, this one centered on Mandarin and Cantonese-speaking Malden residents. McDonald also pointed to the eff orts of State Representative Steve Ultrino, who helped this city in securing language translating headsets the Councillors and others were able to use during that Town Hall. “This is laying the foundation for a broader goal of helping our residents who need language access engage in the civic life and decision-making in the city.” Ward 6 Councillor Stephen Winslow agreed with McDonald. “We have important issues like transportation and housing, among others that we make as a Council,” Winslow said. “We have to reach the broadest amount of the community we can. Meeting people where they are is critical.” “We are being called upon to shape our community. We always have to adapt to our residents,” Winslow added. ‘Helpful initiative to bridge communities’ “This is a really helpful initiative to bridge communities like ours,” Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley said. “There are lots of people who would like to participate and help with language access.” O’Malley referenced the Plain Language Act of 2010, which specifies that Massachusetts communities must write municipal forms and applications in a manner that is easier translatable. “All of the ‘whereases’ LANGUAGE | SEE PAGE 20

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, March 17, 2023 Page 11 At Linden STEAM Academy, music makes the world sound better Malden Public Schools fi rst-year music educator ‘pays forward’ her passion to students in new Music Club By Steve Freker J udith Albert says she has had a passion for music and all that it off ers for as long as she can remember. A fi rst-year Music Educator at Malden’s Linden STEAM Academy, she is already passing along her zeal for the musical arts to her young students. Albert is ready, willing and able to “pay it forward” when it comes to instilling a love of music and sound to her Linden K-4 music students. She said she fi nds the Malden Public Schools a rich environment for teaching and learning. “These students are so enthusiastic about music, and I love working with them,” Albert said during an afterschool Music Club she was hosting at the school for students in grades Kindergarten to Grade 2. The Linden Music Club also includes students in Grades 3 and 4, and the two groups switch off every Monday afternoon, for an hour-long session after school. Fell in love with music as a young girl When Albert was a student herself in the greater Miami, Fla., region, she fell in love with music as a young girl, in both performing on musical instruments – the piano in particular – and singing. She both played the piano and sang in her church, growing up, as well as performing informally in other diff erent venues. The year before graduation, she got lucky, due to the kindness and ingenuity of a passionate music teacher she was fortunate to take classes with in her high school years. This was the same teacher who “basically gave me all of my piano lessons for free. My family could not have afforded the going rate for lessons, and we were so blessed to have been treated so generously by Mr. Davis.” Albert said the Everglades High School teacher’s largesse continued the summer before her senior year of high school. “My teacher loaded up a bunch of us who wanted to pursue music studies in college into a passenger van and we went on a tour of Florida colleges,” Albert recalled. “We checked out many great colleges and had one goal in mind – to try and get a scholarship. Myself and others were successful and my college career began.” Grateful for the assistance she received in college search “It would not have happened 425r Broadway, Saugus Located adjacent to Kohls Plaza Route 1 South in Saugus at the intersection of Walnut St. We are on MBTA Bus Route 429 781-231-1111 ‘BOOMWHACKER’ CREW: Manning the tubular percussion Boomwhackers are kindergarten class members of Linden STEAM Academy’s Music Club.

We collected 20 interviews, more than 50 photos, and fi ve videos and compiled them in both physical and digital form to create a timeless collection of these moments.

So it happened, and the result is the MTEC “Positivity Pole” – just brimming with messaging that is soothing to the soul like “Care” “Peaceful” and “Be Kind.” The pole is located adjacent to the MTEC site, which is inside the Malden Senior Center at 7 Washington St. Shown in the smaller group shot, from left to right, are MTEC members Allison Yu ,Juliana Lin, Ben Rosa and Zhi Zhu.

Malden High’s Junior Varieties 2023 show rocks the house ‘Nightmare on Salem Street’ delivers a night full of superb acts, including NEDLAM vs. ‘Freddy’ showdown By Steve Freker W ho knew it would take Malden High School’s one and only NEDLAM to do what – count ’em – nine feature films and one television series could not: Cancel Freddy Krueger. The winner (and still champion) MHS mascot’s knockout of the iconic slasher film icon, right there on the Jenkins Auditorium stage during the Class of 2023’s Junior Varieties show, was just one highlight of a night full of superb acts. This year’s show, with the theme title “Nightmare on Salem Street,” was a takeoff on the classic “...on Elm Street” franchise and did not disappoint, drawing rave reviews from many following the two performances, one each last Friday and Saturday evenings. From the spot-on “Freddy” role played in full Krueger-like costume by Malden High junior Rodrigo Oliveira to a delightfully diverse compilation of acts, ranging from individual vocal and instrumental expressions to several fantastic, authentic costumed dance ensembles, the show impressed from start to finish. There was even a four-piece rock band, “Betta Fish,” which performed a splendid cover of “R U Mine?” by the Arctic Monkeys, as well as a “boom-bastic” drum battle that actually had two full drum sets facing each other, snare-to-snare, and the two rival drummers hammering away at each other. The several dance ensembles and another showstopping performance by the heralded A.O. Step Team added so much to the night’s show.

Vences also played the role of NEDLAM, in full lion suit costume, who emerged as the night’s biggest hero when he defeated “Freddy” in the brief bout, KO-ing Kruger with a potent one-two set of punches. Malden High’s Junior Varieties, which is one of the longest continuous high school-based variety shows of its kind in the nation, was the 83rd in a series which started in 1939. It is traditionally put on by the reigning Junior Class, this year by the Class of 2024. While it once featured only members of the Junior Class, a number of years ago a change was introduced whereby students of any of Malden High’s four classes were allowed to perform. Two shows were held over this past weekend, both evening times on Friday and Saturday at the historic Thornton Jenkins Auditorium, named after the first-ever MHS principal. Malden High’s present-day Principal Chris Mastrangelo spared no praise for this year’s show, his fifth while serving in the school’s top post due to one COVID-necessary postponement in his tenure. “It is simply amazing the levels of talent creativity possessed by our MHS students,” Principal Mastrangelo said. “The kids’ performances were outstanding, the execution of the show was flawless, the students in the audience were respectful and enthusiastic in their response and support of all the acts. It was pretty much a perfect night.” “It was one of the best Junior Varieties I have attended,” the MHS Principal, who has been at the school since the earlyto-mid 2000s, said. Mastrangelo praised the combined efforts of the Junior Class of 2024, its members and Class Advisors – Jess Webber, Shannon Votaw and Kristen Kirby – for such a fantastic T he two most popular youth basketball leagues in the city finished the season with gusto on Saturday with two well played, closely battled championship games.

In their message to all involved in the 2023 Junior Varieties, which included close to 150, including performers and behind-the-scenes crew, the three advisors wrote in a letter included in the evening’s printed program, “To the Class of 2024: It has been a pleasure working with you all over the past year. Nothing (we have undertaken together) is as big as Junior Varieties. “Countless hours have been put in by many, so thank you to all the students that have dedicated their time and talent to put on a successful show. We are so proud of you!” ter hosted leagues for over 200 players on 16 teams in grades 3-8 at the Sam Fishman Fieldhouse at the Salemwood K-8 School. Many more players, boys and girls, took part in weekly Saturday morning instructional basketball work, bringing the total to over 300 young basketball players in grades K-8, supervised by the Malden Rec staff of Coordinator Joe Levine, Assistant Coordinator Laura Perez and Site Coordinator Michael Boyd. A solid staff of volunteers, many from the Malden High School boys’ and girls’ basketball teams, also helped make the seasons run smoothly. On Championship Saturday, in a close, 16-13 final, the Villanova team defeated St John’s for the Arthur P. Boyle League crown, in the league for boys and girls in Grades 4, 5 and 6. Villanova finished atop the regular season standings at 7-0 and then went 2-0 in the playoffs to finish unbeaten at 9-0 overall for the season. Villanova was coached by Kyriah Marcelin and Princeton Mathurin and included Mason Campos, Sully Connolly, Zyir Delva-Allen, Jahdia Fletcher, Andrew Mark, Michael Menard, Kyle Morano, Gabirelle Nettey, Mia Nguyen, Ramon Ostalaza, Jacob Peng, Mariana Rinaldi and Thomas Sewell.

All of the schools made time for guest speaker MOA Vice President Dana Brown, who asked all students and staff for their support in ending the stigma attached to substance use disorder. MPS Communications Specialist & Building Security staffer Steve Freker was also at each school, capturing in pictures the efforts of the students and staff in making this a powerful Malden Stop the Stigma Day. Malden Police were also at each school, signifying the support they provide for MOA and the MPS throughout the year. MOA Board members Linda Cochran and Paul Bell represented the organization throughout the day. March 8, 2023, was also proclaimed as Malden Stop the Stigma Day by Mayor Gary Christenson in a videotaped presentation held at City Hall. His proclamation highlighted the efforts of MOA since its inception nearly 10 years ago. Using social media as a platform, community activists, first responders, citizens and nonprofit groups across Malden promoted the day with the hashtag #MaldenStopTheStigma. Many posted pictures showing the blue ribbons they wore to support the cause. Malden Overcoming Addiction (MOA) is a community partner whose mission is to connect the community with addiction support and recovery services, remove the stigma of addiction and fight to eliminate overdose fatalities in Malden and surrounding communities. The annual MOA “Stop the Stigma Day” is about “leveraging the collective power of Malden’s community to bring attention to the stigma surrounding Malden Catholic High School Forestdale School Wall MOA’s VP, Dana Brown, speaks at the Salemwood School. addiction.” The stigma associated with drug use prevents many from seeking the help, whether emotionally or physically, that they require.

Fortunately, there are a number of government programs and other tips that may be able to help you monetarily while you care for your dad. Here are some options to explore. Medicaid Assistance All 50 states and the District of Columbia off er self-directed Medicaid services for long-term care. These programs let states grant waivers that allow income-qualifi ed individuals to manage their own long-term home-care services. In some states, that can include hiring a family member to provide care. Benefi ts, coverage, eligibility and rules diff er from state to state. Program names also vary. What’s called “consumer directed care” in one state, may be called “participant-directed services,” “inhome supportive services” or “cash and counseling” in another. Contact your state Medicaid program to ask about its options or to start the sign-up process. Veterans Benefi ts If your dad is a military veteran, there are several diff erent VA programs he may be eligible for that provide fi nancial assistance to family caregivers, including: • Veteran-Directed Care: Available in most states, this program provides a needs-based monthly budget for long-term care services. (VA.gov/geriatrics/pages/Veteran-Directed_Care.asp) • Aid & Attendance or Housebound benefi ts: These programs provide a monthly payment to veterans and survivors who receive a VA pension and who either need assistance with activities of daily living (i.e., bathing, dressing, going to the bathroom), or are housebound. (VA.gov/pension/aid-attendance-housebound) • Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers: This provides a monthly stipend to family members who serve as caregivers for veterans who need assistance with daily living activities because of an injury or illness sustained in the line of duty. (Caregiver.va.gov/support/support_benefi ts.asp) Other Options If your dad has some savings or other assets, discuss the possibility of him paying you for the care you provide, or talk to your siblings to see if they can chip in. If they agree, consider drafting a short-written contract that details the terms of your work and payment arrangements, so everyone involved knows what to expect. A contract will also help avoid potential problems should your dad ever need to apply for Medicaid for nursing home care. Also, check to see if your dad has any long-term care insurance that covers in-home care. If he does, in some cases those benefi ts may be used to pay you. Tax Breaks There are also tax credits and deductions you may be eligible for as your dad’s caregiver that can help. For example, if your dad lives with you and you’re paying at least half of his living expenses, and his gross income was less than $4,400 (in 2022) not counting his Social Security, you can claim him as a dependent on your taxes and get a $500 tax credit. If you can’t claim him as a dependent, you may still be able to get a tax deduction if you’re paying more than half his living expenses including medical and long-term care costs, and they exceed 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income. You can include your own medical expenses in calculating the total. To see which medical expenses you can deduct, see IRS Publication 502 at IRS.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p502.pdf. Or, if you’re paying for in-home care or adult day care for your dad so you can work, you might qualify for the Dependent Care Tax Credit which can be worth as much as $1,050. To claim this credit, you’ll need to fi ll out IRS Form 2441 (IRS.gov/pub/irs-pdf/ f2441.pdf) when you fi le your federal return. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

At Linden ‘It’s been wonderful’ So far, as the school year approaches the “home stretch,” she told the Malden Advocate, “It’s been wonderful!” Recently, when the Linden administration, headed up by Principal Rafael Garcia, decided to ask the educators if any would like to host a club or other extracurricular activity after school, Albert said, “I jumped at the chance.” She added, “I was already thinking about off ering some LANGUAGE | FROM PAGE 10 and ‘therefores’ are a trouble to translate. Language access is very important to me,” O’Malley added, noting that he believes funding could be accessed to provide more language access around City Hall, particularly in building signage and similar improvements. City Council President Barbara sort of extra activity for our students after school, if I got the permission, and then Mr. Garcia made the announcement about the clubs. It was exactly what I had wanted to do.” In a recent Music Club session, a spirited group of mostly kindergarteners were using a set of Boomwhackers and complementary drums, which allowed the students to play along to music on a guided big screen by tapping the right color sequence in front of them. Some hit the color circles with their tubular percussion Boomwhackers, while others were positioned on hand drums, using their fi ngers and palms to thump along with the rhythm. Murphy (Ward 5) joined all the councillors as she thanked Martinez for the informative presentation. “I’ve been calling you ‘The Missing Link’ with the knowledge you have on what’s going on in the city and the data you have in your possession,” Murphy said. “We look forward to more updates [on language access] so we can further help with the issues aff ecting our constituency.” “We make sure everyone uses both of them [Boomwhackers and drums] to get the full percussion experience and hear and see all the sounds.” Judging by the smiles – and the intensity – exhibited by the Music Club kindergarten kids, they were getting some valuable skill development while learning sound and sight recognition during the exercise. “I have gotten so much help and support in the years that I really needed it. I would really like to do the same for my own students,” said Albert, who noted she is now working on her Doctorate of Musical Arts (DMA) degree. “This is the right place to do that, here in Malden.” CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING Advocate Call now! 617-387-2200 advertise on the web at www.advocatenews.net Common Name CRIMSON KING MAPLE CALLERY PEAR NORWAY MAPLE LITTLELEAF LINDEN CRIMSON KING MAPLE OBJECTIONS TO THE REMOVAL OF ANY TREE(S) MUST BE RECEIVED IN WRITING BY THE TREE WARDEN AT THE ABOVE LISTED ADDRESS PRIOR TO OR AT THE TREE HEARING.

In addition to her husband, Jim Chiavelli, to whom she had been married since 1990, she is survived by her daughters, Emily Anderson Chiavelli and Margaret Celestia Chiavelli; two sisters, Judith Randall of Lynnfi eld and Lillian Burbank of Maine; a nephew, Jay Sears, and three nieces, Rachael Anderson, Victoria Gordon and Alexis Burbank; her in-laws, James F. and Mary Chiavelli of Nashua, N.H.; and many cousins, great-nieces and -nephews, along with her longtime “second family”, the Malloys/McInerneys. She was also the sister of the late Robert Anderson. A memorial service will be held at 6 p.m. Friday, March 24, at Weir MacCuish Funeral Home, 144 Salem St., Malden, with visiting hours from 3 to 6 p.m. In lieu of fl owers, please consider a donation to the Malden Public Library, 26 Salem St., Malden MA 02148, in Karen’s name to support the library archives.
