Maldden alld a Vol. 29, No. 19 den AADD -FREEM alden is starting to look at steps and strategies for reopening the city and the local economy. Councillor-at-Large Stephen Winslow presented a chart of properties owned by the city and open to the public during a joint meeting of the Public Safety and Public Property Committees this week. Winslow suggested that councillors could consider recommendations for relaxing some restrictions and preparing the city for a “new normal” in the age of COVID-19. Gov. Charlie Baker has announced that Monday, May 18, is the start date for cautiously reopening the state according to a plan with four phases that includes remaining vigilant about public health data. “We should anticipate some relaxation of restrictions in this phase,” said Winslow. “It’s a good time to think about how we move forward.” Members of the two committees discussed the possibility of reopening some city parks with www.advocatenews.net City looks ahead to a gradual reopening By Barbara Taormina fencing to keep kids off the playgrounds. Thy also talked about temporarily eliminating parking lanes on major roads so that residents will have more room while walking. “I’ve gotten a number of emails from across the city from residents who have asked for more space on public streets for social distancing,” said Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley, who suggested temporarily eliminating parking on one side of Main Street. “It’s crucial that we give people a safe way and enough space to walk around,” he added. Winslow, who was particularly concerned about transportation, said other cities are expediting the creation of bicycle lanes and express bus lanes to accommodate commuters who will eventually return to work.

CTE CAT AT Published Every Friday 617-387-2200 By Steve Freker W hen it became apparent that the COVID-19 pandemic was going to rob members of this year’s high school senior class of many of their traditions, city and school offi cials across the region teamed up to come up with ways to honor and recognize those Class of 2020 students. This week, over 600 seniors who either attend Malden High School, the two other high schools in the city – Malden Catholic or Mystic Valley Regional Charter School – and other schools outside the city, such as Northeast Metro Tech and Bishop Fenwick, received some well-deserved recognition. Through the eff orts of the City of Malden, the Malden City Council and Malden School Committee and others, individual, customized signs featuring color photos and names for every local senior resident or senior from a Malden-based high school are being delivered to their home. They can be displayed either as traditional lawn signs or in windows at the respective homes. Honoring vets with a living memorial A By Barbara Taormina few years ago, Thomas Marcinowski read a story in National Geographic about an underwater memorial where people combined the ashes of recently lost loved ones with markers and stones to create a reef which would stand as a lasting tribute to family members and friends. Marcinowski was inspired by the idea which honored those who died and, at the same time, gave them a fi nal role in helping to rehabilitate a marine ecosystem. He also saw a unique opportunity to honor recently deceased vets. Marcinowski recast the idea and launched Veterans Memorial Reef, a 160-acre site located fi ve miles off the coast of Carolina Beach/Wrightsville Beach in North Carolina where he plans to place the fi rst sections of the VETS | SEE PAGE 6 Malden Mayor Gary Christenson, who also serves as chairman of the Malden School Committee, said the idea was originated by City Council President Jadeane Sica (Ward 8), whose son, John Bernbaum, is a graduating senior at Bishop Fenwick High School in Peabody. “With school being closed for the rest of the year, it’s more important than ever to support our seE Friday, May 15, 2020 Signs of the times: Malden seniors get their due with memento signs SIGNS, SIGNS EVERYWHERE: All Malden high school senior residents or those who attend Malden-based high schools were honored with signs.

But third-year Malden High School “go” for a traditional, outdoor Graduation Ceremony, on the fi eld at Macdonald Stadium on Pearl Street. And the ceremonial “cap tossing” may have to be nixed for this year, depending on what guidelines are in place at the time, of course. “They have lost so much this year, their fi nal year of high school, due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” Mastrangelo told The Advocate. “We just want to make sure that our seniors do not miss out on one of the biggest highlights of their lives.” All high schools in this area have cancelled either traditional “on the fi eld” or, for others, indoor graduation exercises due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

She stressed the importance of understanding what the community wants, and how trends in commuting might change over the next years. “We don’t want the public to get the impression that this is a covert way of getting this done,” said Linehan, adding that it’s a way to accommodate residents making lifestyle and behavioral changes to protect their health. In addition to a limited reopening of parks, Winslow suggested that the councillors recommend reopening the community garden with requirements for face masks, gloves and social distancing. Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy said she had helped garden manager Julie Mangan with a letter to Public Health Director Chris Webb and Emergency Management Director Glenn Cronin outlining parameters for a safe reopening of the garden. Murphy complimented Winslow for outlining areas and ideas to consider but added that the council should not be issuing an order to reopen the garden and should instead be asking people with the most knowledge about what’s going on in our city to weigh in. “One of the things that’s missing here is the key people,” she said. “We need to work together, not separately as a council, on how we move forward.” Winslow, however, said that the city doesn’t have the same resources as Boston or the state. “The challenge is we don’t have a transportation director and Chris Webb is just one person,” he said. “The spirit of this is to make recommendations that we can prioritize.” “We should pick some CURBSIDE TAKEOUT Call In Your Order: 781-629-3798 Hours: Thursday 2:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. Friday 2:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. Saturday 2:00 p.m. - 8;00 p.m. Sunday 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. The Marina Clambake Available to Go!

But the recommendations suggested by members of the two committees would involve other city departments, boards and offi cials. Committee members suggested a task force which could review proposals, recommendations and the challenges involved. Winslow said he would reach out to Maria Luise, Mayor Gary Christenson’s Special Assistant, to discuss steps for reopening the city. Kevin O'Connor Earns Spot on the Ballot, Despite Career Politician's Attempts to Keep Challengers Off R epublican Candidate for U.S Senate Kevin O'Connor announced this week that his campaign has surpassed the required signature threshold to get on the ballot. KOC for Senate volunteers and campaign staff worked tirelessly in the face of a daunting challenge due to Covid-19. When the Beacon Hill power brokers refused to align the signature requirements with the public health needs, O’Connor successfully led a bipartisan group of candidates in an historic lawsuit before the Supreme Judicial Court. His legal victory cut the signature requirements for all candidates in half and allowed candidates — for the fi rst time — to submit electronic signatures. "We are pleased to announce that our campaign has officially surpassed the certifi ed signature threshold needed to get on the ballot,” said O’Connor. “For weeks, career politicians in the legislature ignored the obvious health implications of the petition signature collection process during the coronavirus outbreak in order to guard their personal power, and it took a Supreme Judicial Court ruling to address their deliberate failure.” O’Connor continued, “It is a testament to hard work and common sense of those who care about democracy, the law, and the health and welfare of our citizenry that there will be an election in November for United States Senate. Now, we take our next steps to challenge the same self-serving, do-nothing, status quo in Washington.” The O’Connor signature drive proved to be a model for statewide outreach and collaboration. The O’Connor campaign coordinated with more than 30 diff erent campaigns across the state and received signatures from all 14 counties and more than 300 towns. His successful signature effort shows how O’Connor will lead as our next US Senator: Stand up for what is right, off er commonsense solutions, and work tirelessly for victory

The reef will be built with 2000-pound concrete domes, or markers, with holes on all sides to allow fish and water to flow in and out. Families can mix their loved one’s ashes into the concrete or place then in an urn inside the dome. Each marker will have a nameplate, and families can add personal touches, such as statuettes, inscribed messages or handprints. The markers will be lowered about 40 feet down and placed on the ocean floor where, Marcinowski said, they will begin boosting marine life by accelerating the growth of coral and forming a reef that will provide a habitat for thousands of species of fish and sea creatures. In a sense, veterans will live on as part of a dynamic marine ecosystem. “I am trying to do something to give back to vets,” said Marcinowski. “I want to make sure they are recognized for eternity.” It’s no surprise that Marcinowski decided to create a memorial reef specifically to honor veterans. A Malden native, he grew up in the neighborhood behind the Moose Lodge on the east side of the city. A member of the Malden High Class of 1987, Marcinowski knew early on he was headed for the U.S. Air Force. His accounting teacher told him that he was wasting his life by joining the military. She tried to sell him on a career with spreadsheets and ledgers, but Marcinowski wasn’t having any of it. “I was able to enlist in the Air Force with my parents’ permission when I was 16 in a program known as Delayed Entry Program,” he said, adding that his family’s finances made college an unlikely prospect.

Marcinowski transferred to the Air Force Reserves, earned a degree as a physician’s assistant and joined the North Carolina Army National Guard. He was called back into service during the early days of Operation Iraqi Freedom and served with the infantry as a battalion aid surgeon.

The Veterans Memorial Reef Foundations plan to let colleges and universities use the reef to study marine biology. The Veterans Memorial Reef will be built with concrete domes or markers that commemorate the life and service of individual veterans. (Courtesy Photos) Marcinowski founded the nonprofit Veterans Memorial Reef Foundation last May and has since been working with friends Joe Irrera and Alex Cupernall to put all the pieces of the project in place. “We put a lot of sweat and tears into this,” he said. “We want to do good and give something back.” Although Marcinowski said every veteran who served honorably should be recognized, he is particularly concerned about homeless vets who may not have family to arrange funerals and memorials. “No vet should go unrecognized,” he added. “If you wore boots, you have family.” Unlike cemeteries, which can be cold and unwelcoming, the hope is the reef will be a living memorial not just for marine life, but also for families and friends. Marcinowski said there is a military tradition of cracking open a beer at a buddy’s gravesite and pouring it into the ground to share and remember. He said he can see that same tradition playing out from the deck of a boat. Eventually, he hopes, there will be opportunities for diving, snorkeling and fishing tournaments. The Veterans Memorial Reef website will include the names and short biographies of each vet along with their military awards. Marcinowski looks forward to providing that information and teaching civilians about the meaning and importance of military awards. While the cost of laying a loved one to rest within the reef is about $4,000, considerably less than a traditional funeral, the foundation is raising money to help veterans who cannot afford it and also to cover some of the many other expenses involved in operating and maintaining the project.

Page 8 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 Fateful decision: Michael Jordan’s 1994 foray into pro baseball had a ripple effect Malden’s Cappuccio had a long pro career, but it may have taken a different path Following is Part One of two-part series telling the story of how a decision by the greatest player in NBA history, Michael Jordan , may very well have influenced the professional baseball fate of Malden High School’s greatest athlete, Carmine Cappuccio. By Steve Freker here has been plenty of discussion and reminiscing about the time the NBA’s greatest player left three world title rings behind, 25 years ago, to embark on a career in a second sport. Those of us who know local sports history are aware of an unspoken ”what might have been” connected to that choice. The greatest-ever NBAer’s choice may have had a direct, ripple effect on the professional career of another greatest ever, Malden High School legend Carmine Cappuccio. A baseball star on three different stages, in high school, college and at times, on the pro level, Cappuccio played professional baseball longer than anyone from Malden ever: nine seasons, over 800 games, more than 3,400 plate appearances and 77 homers, including over 200 games at the Triple-A level – one step from the big leagues, but a big step not eventually taken. Jordan shocked the world in 1994 When Michael Jordan shocked the world for the second time in four months on February 7, 1994, and announced he was coming out of retirement to T currences earlier. Well, the tremors from this announcement traveled nearly 2,000 miles north of the White Sox spring training site in Sarasota, Fla. – all the way to Malden, Mass. Cappuccio a three-sport star at Malden High A 1988 MHS graduate and three-sport All-Scholastic (baseball, basketball, football), the lanky, 6-4 Cappuccio is considered by many as the best and most successful athlete in Malden High School history. Cappuccio’s football team Carmine Cappuccio, Malden High Class of 1988, played for the South Bend White Sox in his professional debut for the Chicago White Sox organization in 1992. (Courtesy Photo) take a swing at a professional baseball career, it was seismic. It made LeBron James’ “The Decision,” when he dumped Cleveland for the first time to run off to Miami in 2010, look like a runof-the-mill TMZ snippet. Jordan’s foray into the world of pro baseball was back in the news all this past week due to the wildly popular, 10-part ESPN In his second season of professional baseball, Malden native Carmine Cappuccio played for the Sarasota White Sox in Single-A ball to start the season. (Courtesy Photo) introspective on his life and career, The Last Dance. The latest installment delved into Jordan’s choice to leave basketball behind and move on to another sport. NBA fans, particularly those in Chicago, were already still shell-shocked from Jordan’s previous news missile, which he launched one day shy of four months earlier. On October 6, 1993, he told the world he was retiring from the Chicago Bulls at the age of 31, after winning the previous three consecutive NBA World Championships. Baseball announcement out of left field The baseball announcement came out of left field, figuratively, but the stature of Jordan in the sports world – there was no one even close at the time – gave his choice instant credibility. It’s Michael Jordan, he can do anything! It certainly did not hurt that NBA legend Michael Jordan shocked the world when in October 1993 (above) he announced he was retiring from basketball, just months after leading the Chicago Bulls to their third straight World Championship. Four months and a day later, in February 1994, he did it again when he announced he would be pursuing a career in professional baseball. (Courtesy Photo) two other larger-than-life sports celebrities were in the midst of a highly successful two-sport career: Bo Jackson of “Bo Knows EVERYTHING” fame (football until 1990; baseball until 1994) and Deion “Prime Time” Sanders. In fact, at the very time Jordan made his baseball bombshell, Jackson was a member of the Chicago White Sox organization. They would end up being in spring training together two weeks later. There were plenty of skeptics when this was front-page news, and lots of sports fans were intrigued by the novelty of the news, regarding the hands-down most well-known athlete in the world. Scratch that, most famous person in the world. Then spring training started and Jordan was settling into his new role and toward the end of the month-long session, it was made known that Jordan, who had been toiling as outfielder, was going to be assigned to start the season with the Birmingham Barons, the White Sox Double-A affiliate in Alabama. What? Double-A? Unheard of! No player with such a dearth of experience as Jordan, despite his expected appeal for ticket sales and every other dollar that could be squeezed out of his choice, would start their career as high as Double-A. But he did. We talked about seismic ocwas considered one of the best ever seen at Pearl Street Stadium in the 1986-1988 seasons, where he established new receiving and scoring records for a season and a career, still holding them to this day. As a 6-4 shooting guard, he bombed away for 40 three-pointers in 1987-88, a school record. In baseball, he graduated as top Golden Tornado in pitching wins and owning every single-season and career record conceivable. His senior year, shortly after registering 50 hits and knocking in 51 runs in just 23 games, Cappuccio was awarded The Boston Globe’s inaugural award as the top male athlete in the state of Massachusetts. A stellar collegiate career followed. Baseball paid for his college education at national power Rollins College in Winter Park, Fla., where he set every hitting record and was a three-time NCAA Division II All-American selectee, first team. A freak knee injury running down to first base, legging out a single, in the first inning of the first game of his junior year, in the spring of 1991, sidelined him for the entire season after undergoing ACL repair surgery. Still, despite the injury, Cappuccio was drafted in the 30th round of the Major League Baseball selection by the Chicago White Sox.

Malden High is one of the only schools in the area actively planning on holding a traditional, on the field graduation ceremony at this time, for the approximately 400 members of its graduating class. “We are already planning how we will conduct the graduation, fully recognizing that we will be meeting all safety and health guidance in place at the time, whether it is locally, state or CDC-based,” Mastrangelo said. “We are anticipating appropriate physical distancing on the field for the graduates and staff and a very limited attendance policy overall.” “Basically, anyone attending will have to be immediate family members, and even still we will be limiting those numbers to stay within safety and health guidelines, which we expect to be in place in August,” Mastrangelo added, “and physical distancing measures will be in place in the stands at the stadium as well.” In addition to the plans for a “live,” outdoor graduation ceremony, Mastrangelo said, other plans to recognize his Class of 2020 senior class have also been completed or lie ahead. On Wednesday, the MHS principal said close to 100 members of the school’s staff, both teachers and others, combined to fan out across the city of Malden and place lawn signs in front of the homes of Malden seniors. (See separate story.) Later this month, Malden High’s Class of 2020 will be honored once again, this time by an enthusiastic, car-honking, multi-vehicle parade – all around the city – led by MHS teachers and administrators driving by in their own vehicles, with the goal of passing by every senior class member’s home across Malden. “We are going to hand out the traditional caps and gowns a couple of days before the event, and we are asking the seniors to come out in front of their homes so we can honor them as we drive by,” Mastrangelo said. “It should be a lot of fun and they really deserve this. They have been through so much and have had too much taken away from them due to the pandemic, all unexpectedly.” The MHS Class of 2020 Senior Shout-out Parade is planned for Sunday, May 31, the original Malden High graduation date. Once again, Mastrangelo said, he got “a tremendous response” in a call for volunteers for the parade event. “It is really simple: They love the kids they teach, and they really miss them, and I am sure the feeling is mutual. This is a way to see them again and at their best.” Mastrangelo said he communicates with the members of his senior class online frequently, usually twice a week or more, since school buildings were closed March 13 and remote learning began shortly after that. “The kids are excited, they appreciate the fact that we are trying to recognize them and their accomplishments as high school graduates as best as we can,” he said. Mastrangelo said he and his staff were grateful for the support he has received for all of the ideas that are coming to fruition from Malden Public Schools Superintendent John Oteri, Mayor Gary Christenson and members of the Malden School Committee and City Council. He added that Malden Police Chief Kevin Molis and Fire Chief Bill Sullivan have also supported plans for the parade and offered to provide vehicles to ride along with the “motorcade.” “It's another moment we can share with our students and their families and we are really looking forward to it,” the Malden High principal said.

Page 10 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 SIGNS | FROM PAGE 1 spent two days preparing and then distributing over 400 individual signs to seniors’ homes. In addition to the customized “Senior Salute” signs, close to 100 MHS educators and staff members also banded together Wednesday and delivered Spring Sports signs for seniors who had lost their opportunity to compete this past spring when school sports were cancelled due to COVID-19. The Spring Sports shout-out signs, many of which included action shots of seniors competing in their various sports of baseball, softball, track, lacrosse, crew or volleyball, were put together through the efforts of Malden Public Schools Director of Athletics Charlie Conefrey. “We really felt badly for out senior athletes who missed out on the opportunity to compete this spring and represent their school and community,” Conefrey said. “This was a great way to acknowledge the time and comMALDEN HIGH HONOREE: Senior Sean Lightbody’s Claremont Street home in the Linden neighborhood featured this sign on Wednesday.

On Tuesday we sorted out the many signs by Wards in the city of Malden and got all the addresses cross-checked,” Mastrangelo explained, noting the assistance he received from MHS Administrative Assistants Leanne Glennon, Barbara Scibelli and Judie Sullivan in that task. “Then on Wednesday we had READY TO GO: Over 400 signs were distributed to Malden High School graduates-to-be, some of whom were also honored as spring student-athletes. nearly 100 teachers and paraprofessionals drive through the parking lot beside the school and collected packages of signs to deliver across the community,” Mastrangelo said. “It went smooth and it was just awesome to see. Our teachers and staff care so much for our students, and this was a way they could express it to them.” The MHS principal said that within a couple of hours after the deliveries were made, he had already received dozens of messages from his seniors. “They were thrilled with the signs and so appreciative of all that they received,” he said. “We are very grateful to the mayor and other elected officials who were behind this effort.” UNPACKING: It was a big undertaking on “Delivery Day” Wednesday, and taking part were Elisee Pompilus, left, and Malden Public Schools Director of Athletics Charlie Conefrey, right.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 Page 11 April showers bring May Mother’s Day flowers Maria Trinchese, Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy and Aryssa and Lori Ardai distributed 71 flowers at Roland Graham Housing for the Elderly (Forestdale) on Friday for Mother’s Day. By Tara Vocino T hrough the continued generosity of Encore Boston Harbor and Bread of Life, approximately 200 Malden mothers and grandmothers throughout the city were surprised to receive flowers, just in time for Mother’s Day last Sunday. Bread of Life notified Mayor Gary Christenson and City Council members of the plant donations, and they invited city leaders to distribute them in their wards. Plants were also provided to Bread of Life and Young Women’s Christian Association clients. Last Friday, City Council President Jadeane Sica, Councillor-at-Large Craig Spadafora, Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy, Ward 1 Councillor Peg Crowe and Ward 3 Councillor Amanda Linehan, along with a crew of their volunteers, placed plants at the seniors’ doors of Forestdale Park Assisted Living, Forestdale Senior Housing, Salem Towers, the Robinson Cuticura Building and Dexter House. The councillors also then delivered plants to seniors in their wards. All plants contained a “Happy Mother’s Day note” that included the sponsors. “It was a pleasure to bring some joy to people who have been cooped up in their houses for so long,” said Murphy, who visited Roland Graham Housing for the Elderly (Forestdale). “Many residents opened their doors and thanked us as we left the flowers.” —Tara Vocino may be reached at printjournalist1@gmail.com.

Page 12 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 After weeks of delays, City Council approves rental assistance program By Barbara Taormina fter several weeks of delays, the City Council voted unanimously to approve three projects to support aff ordable housing and housing assistance programs recommended by the Community Preservation Committee. The Malden Redevelopment A Authority will receive $250,000 for a rental assistance program which is also being funded with $500,000 of Community Development Block Grant COVID-19 money. Action for Boston Community Development will receive $100,000 for its Secure Start program, which will provide funding for Malden renters who need help paying a security deposit. Bread of Life will receive $512,000 to support its Under One roof project, which will include a kitchen, dining room, food pantry and 14 units of affordable housing for homeless individuals and veterans. The Community Preservation Committee also recommended allocating $225,000 for the rehabilitation of Trafton Park. The council voted late last year to approve that funding so that the city could meet the deadline for applying for a state grant.

DeCRISTOFARO Register of Probate May 15, 2020 Social isolation hits close to home for older adults and families S ocial isolation, also known as the Loneliness Epidemic, is a prevalent concern for the nearly 290,000 older adults living in the state of Massachusetts. A 2020 report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services shows that 28 percent of elders live alone in the community. Now, with the COVID-19 pandemic changing people’s day-to-day lives and the ways in which they interact with others, our society must realize that isolation among residents ages 65 and older is at an all-time high. In their many interactions with seniors, Mystic Valley Elder Services (MVES) care managers and nurses, along with Meals on Wheels drivers, have discovered that loneliness and isolation is a prevalent condition. The recent report mentioned above states that loneliness can increase infl ammation, heart disease, memory disorders, mental health conditions and higher death rates. Factors that add to isolation include the inevitable losses of spouse, family members and friends over time. In addition, physical limitations and a lack of transportation reduce seniors’ mobility outside the home. “Seniors are at a huge risk for social isolation,” said MVES RN Susan Doherty. “There can be many reasons for social isolation and not just during this pandemic. Some older adults might not have family, might be estranged from their family, might not be as technologically savvy as younger folks, and might rely on transportation or Adult Day Health in order to socialize, both of which are not running at this time.” Social isolation can aff ect everything – from mental health to nutrition to mobility. Doherty said, “I was with a daughter of a consumer who has been self-quarantining from her father due to COVID-19 exposure.

However, because those two projects were not listed on the council’s docket, councillors voted to wait until their next meeting to vote on the recommendations. At one point, Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy suggested waiting to vote on all the Community Preservation Committee’s recommendations. “I am in full agreement with all of these; this is a wonderful use of Community Preservation Act funds,” she said, adding that the approval of the projects is something worth celebrating. Murphy suggested putting off the vote until the next full City Council meeting when people are watching and recording and when residents have an opportunity to voice the support. “All of the city can see their 1 percent real estate tax is going for such wonderful projects,” she said. Murphy also pointed out that, according to council rules, only emergency measures can be voted on at Committee of the Whole meetings, which is what this week’s meeting was. “We’ve been talking about transparency and doing things correctly,” she said. The three projects approved this week were originally on the docket for the council’s meeting on April 21, but councillors opted to delay that vote because of timing problems with setting and publishing the meeting agenda and because of a reluctance to suspend rules that require a public hearing on the projects. The council decided to move forward and approve the three projects focusing particularly on rental assistance, which several councillors, including City Council President Jadeane Sica, characterized as an emergency measure despite the month-long delay. Last year, the council approved $637,000 in funding for eight community preservation projects. Spending on the six projects recommended this year is $1.28 million, which leaves a balance of $529,000 to roll over for next year and a new round of project proposals.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 Page 13 HERO | FROM PAGE 2 off their kids in the middle of Salem Street was not as egregious as I once thought. The jaywalkers in the Square – how I wish they would return. Quickly. Bumper to bumper traffic from Auburn Street to Main – you are forgiven. The MBTA morning bus drivers who cut me off at least twice a week, you are also forgiven! I want to see City Clerk Greg Lucey walking out of Dunkin’ Donuts on Main Street in early morning as he heads to his office. I need to see Mayor Gary strolling through the Square keeping his pledge to eradicate litter in our lifetime. It would be such a pleasure to see Paul “Hurricane” Haven sitting early morning on his perch in the Square slow drawing on a smoke and holding that coffee cup close. I look forward during the day to checking into Facebook to see how others are coping. My day is made when Cathy Leblanc posts yet another meme that brings a smile to my face. Seeing pictures of my twoyear-old grandson, Jack, angrily throwing his Easter basket down a flight of stairs! He is so cute when he gets angry! Videos of grandchildren Christian, Lola and two-month-old Lana again in real time – priceless. Facebook a joy since I discovered the “unfollow” feature! Eliminating all those sour individuals out there has been a godsend. No more inane, foolish and downright idiotic political rants by old and new friends alike. All those “pompous pipsqueaks” – as Dr. Zachary Smith would call them – I unfollowed them! Felt good, too. Insert a great big smiley face emoji. Back in real life I sit and wait for my daily dose of “comfort TV.” His name: Andrew Cuomo! Where have you been my whole life! Such class. Such dignity. Such confidence. Such a mensch! He makes these dark days a little easier to navigate; America’s Governor, for sure. Let’s have a Ballantine Ale together some day, my friend. I’ve been deep diving YouTube TV also. Did you know that Audie Murphy starred in a mid-fifty’s western called “Whispering Smith?!” Neither did I. He plays a police officer in late 1860’s Denver. If you do not know who Audie Murphy is, please Google him. We throw the word “legend” and “hero” around these days until it is virtually meaningless. Meet Audie Murphy, real-life superhero. I am “Naked City” binge-watching also. Saw a wicked cool one last week with a very young Dustin Hoffman playing a stick-up man who gets shot by a guy impersonating a cop. In episode 34 of season 4, Law & Order’s Steven Hill starred in “Barefoot on a Bed of Coals” as a NYPD wannabe/imposter. It did not turn out well for him. Not your cup of tea? I searched and found “The Battle of Maldon” on YouTube. Twelve minutes, thirty-two fascinating seconds of the Viking invasion in 991 AD of the town in England for which Malden was named. Okay, I’ll stop at this point. “This is the end, beautiful friend; this is the end, my only friend, the end...” Our first Zoom session went swimmingly well. Niece Dorothy (Levine) held our hands, guiding us through 21st century technology; unthinkable when these eight participants were her very same age. Not our fault we grew up with eight-track cassettes and vinyl records. It went so well it is now a Friday night ritual (hopefully, for not much longer though). Super of Cems Jimmy “Stinger” Cahill, Rec Director Joe Levine, Jack Freker, Greg “Son of Paul” Phaneuf, Tony “Mr. Grease Pole” Della Gatta, Sal “Sonny” Trioli, Paul “Hoss” Condon, Billy Settemio and myself made like a normal Friday night at the Italian American Citizen’s Club and for an hour or so enjoyed that old-time campground camaraderie, busting chops just like the old days. I miss those slugs! Ya know, seeing people in person? Even the ones that annoy you from time to time. Who else wants even the annoying ones back in their lives!? Raises hand. Next week we’re trying to recruit City of Malden Controller Chuckie “Superstar” Ranaghan. His wit, wisdom and that special way he needles his pal Stinger we all miss since they locked the doors on us at the IACC. Postscript 1: Hang in there, Malden. Stay inside! Keep washing your hands! Stay strong! Before you know it, we’ll be chowing on steak tips with salad (with that great P.S.S. salad dressing) as Paul Solano greets us at the door at Pearl Street Station. Before you know it, Jackie Bouley & Douglas Tran will be charming you at All Season’s Table as you enjoy the jazz combo and a cosmo at the bar. Before you know it, summer will be upon us. We’ll cautiously watch this horror show disappear in the rearview mirror humming the Jerry Mungo classic “Summertime” – “In the summertime when the weather is hot “You can stretch right up and touch the sky “When the weather’s fine “You got women, you got women on your mind “Have a drink, have a drive “Go out and see what you can find.” Postscript 2: Thank you once again to the everyday heroes we so take for granted: Officers like Trent Headley, George MacKay and Kevin Killion; healthcare workers; Cataldo Ambulance; firefighters like Martin Cahill, Jimmy Connelly and Lenny Dunn; the folks who stock the shelves, serve us meals.

May 15, 2020 Changes To Required Minimum Distribution Rules T he Secure Act (Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement) may very well have the largest impact on retirement accounts since the passage of the Pension Protection Act in 2006. Although the Secure Act did away with the IRA stretch provisions that allowed beneficiaries to stretch out distributions from the IRA account over their lifetimes, it also increased the age at which IRA account holders are required to take out minimum distributions (RMD’s). Section 114 of the Act increases the age at which an IRA owner or participant in an employer-sponsored retirement plan must begin taking RMD’s from 70 ½ to 72. Participants in 401(k), 403(b) and similar Non-IRAbased employer-sponsored plans will still be able to delay taking RMD’s provided they are still working and meet the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(9). The new required beginning date for taking RMD’s is now April 1st following the year in which the IRA owner reaches age 72. If you choose to take an RMD in the following year on or before April 1st , you will still have to take another RMD in that same year representing the age 73 RMD. This would double up your RMD for that particular year possibly putting you in a higher income tax bracket. Therefore, it might not be to your advantage to defer taking your RMD in the year you actually turn age 72. You might also get hit with IRMAA (Income Related Monthly Adjustment Amount) thereby increasing the amount of your monthly Medicare Part A premium. For anyone that actually turned 70 ½ in 2019, the RMD’s still need to be taken in 2020 if not already taken in 2019. The Secure Act does not allow those individuals to delay RMD’s until age 72. The life expectancy tables have not changed under the Secure Act. These are the tables used to determine the amount of the RMD to be taken each year. Some individuals may wish to take more out of their IRA accounts than the RMD’s. Why? For Estate/Medicaid planning in order to transfer assets to children. Parents may also be in a low tax bracket so taking more money out of IRA accounts now might make sense. Income tax rates could increase with future changes in the tax law. Someone has to pay the income taxes on IRA distributions. Sometimes it makes more sense for the IRA owner to pay the tax and not the children. Asset protection is always a consideration as maybe older Americans are very concerned about nursing home placement and do not have long-term care insurance. They are looking to transfer assets out of their name sooner than later. Joseph D. Cataldo is an estate planning/elder law attorney, Certified Public Accountant, registered investment advisor, AICPA Personal Financial Specialist and holds a masters degree in taxation.

According to Dodge, he has stated many times that MVES is something to be proud of and is appreciative that she has checked in with him so many times to keep tabs on his status. The consumer is also very happy with his Meals on Wheels driver and his commitment to bringing meals as well as his smiling face adding to his day. “He expressed that the check-ins have made him feel important and not alone. He said he feels like he is in jail because there are two people in his building who have tested positive for COVID-19 and he does not want to leave his apartment. But, the daily delivery and a friendly voice on the phone have made a positive impact,” said Dodge. While there are several resources for family caregivers impacted by the pandemic, the various crises being faced by family caregivers and their loved ones dramatically varies.

May 15, 2020 pandemic has put much more stress on caregivers, who now need to shift gears to provide services and take care of loved ones in different ways, such as telephone calls, “driveway visits,” visits where the individuals are divided by a window, or using telehealth instead of home visits. “The impact social distancing has had on the ways people memorialize their loved ones and friends is tough. Gatherings are limited or nonexistent, and families coping with a loss might be feeling an added layer of grief at not being able to celebrate the life of their loved one as they could have in a pre-pandemic world,” said MVES Caregiver Support Coordinator Kathy Learned. The mother of MVES RN Linda Kalogeris was a consumer living in Kalogeris’s home before going to Prospect House Assisted Living & Memory Care in Revere for respite care following a fall and broken bone. “With the onset of the pandemic, my mother has been on lockdown in her room for several weeks and unable to receive visiting nurse services or go to routine doctors’ appointments,” said Kalogeris. “I am worried about my mother’s growing depression and isolation. I often stand outside my mother’s facility to wave through the window.” “It has become very evident about the high occurrence of loneliness that many older adults experience in their daily lives, and has been magnified with COVID-19’s social and physical distancing,” said MVES RN Patricia Hansen. “The majority of seniors and those living with disabilities are estranged from their family and friends, or have no family or friends to speak to or interact with. Most of the time their only connection to someone who cares about them is through MVES. A caring voice on the other end of the phone or a smile and wave from a Meals on Wheels driver are critical.” New Social Engagement Program To address this issue, MVES will launch a new service in early summer called the Social Engagement Program, which will provide focused intervention on the poor health and wellness outcomes linked to loneliness and social isolation, a problem that is impacting older adults in epidemic proportions. “After hearing from volunteers and staff in the field, our community partners, and from consumers themselves, we discovered that older adults are feeling increasingly disconnected and in need of more social support. We decided to take steps to address this problem,” said MVES Director of Community Programs Lauren Reid. The Social Engagement Program will connect to MVES consumers through supports that could include the following: the Friendly Visitor Program, in which the consumer receives home visits that focus on in-person socialization and companionship (this will only be done safely and carefully in this time of the pandemic); the Telephone Reassurance Program, in which a volunteer calls an isolated individual and provides social contact and friendly conversation; and/or an Email Correspondence for online engagement with others via technology. Trained and carefully screened volunteers will provide the visits, calls and emails. “This social engagement intervention will supplement the consumer’s home care services, resulting in a comprehensive care plan that supports an improved quality of life and a safe independence,” said Reid. MVES is playing an important role in the community to combat the effects of social isolation in those valued clients it serves.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 Page 15 aavvyvy S avy niororeniioor io by Jim Miller Do Pneumonia Vaccines Protect Seniors from Coronavirus? D Pi V i Dear Savvy Senior, Do currently off ered vaccines against pneumonia provide seniors any protection against the coronavirus disease? I’ve always been bad about getting vaccinated, but this coronavirus pandemic is causing me to change my thinking. Pro-Vax Patty Dear Patty, This is a great question. Because the coronavirus (COVID-19) attacks the lungs and respiratory system, many readers have asked whether the pneumonia vaccines, which are administered to millions of patients each year, might protect someone if they contract the coronavirus. But unfortunately, the answer is no. Vaccines against pneumonia, such as pneumococcal vaccine and Haemophilus infl uenza type B vaccine, do not provide protection against the new coronavirus. This virus is so new and diff erent that it needs its own vaccine. Researchers are in the process of rapidly developing a vaccine again st COVID-19, but it is expected to take at least a year before it’s ready. Having said that, you should also know that there are several other important vaccines the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that all seniors should get up to date on after the coronavirus pandemic dies down. Here’s a rundown of what they are, when you should get them, and how they’re covered by Medicare. Flu vaccine: While annual fl u shots are recommended each fall to everyone, they are very important for older adults to get because seniors have a much greater risk of developing dangerous fl u complications. According to the CDC, last year up to 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died because of the fl u – most of whom were age 65 and older. To improve your chances of escaping the seasonal fl u, this September or October consider a vaccine specifi cally designed for people 65 and older. The Fluzone High Dose or FLUAD are the two options that provide extra protection beyond what a standard fl u shot off ers. And all fl u shots are covered under Medicare Part B. Pneumococcal vaccine: As previously stated, this vaccine protects against pneumonia, which hospitalizes around 250,000 Americans and kills about 50,000 each year. It’s recommended that all seniors, 65 or older, get two separate vaccines – PCV13 (Prevnar 13) and PPSV23 (Pneumovax 23). Both vaccines, which are administered one year apart, protect against diff erent strains of the bacteria to provide maximum protection. Medicare Part B covers both shots if they are taken at least a year apart. Shingles vaccine: Caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox, shingles is a painful, blistering skin rash that aff ects more than 1 million Americans every year. All people over age 50 should get the new Shingrix vaccine, which is given in two doses, two to six months apart. Even if you’ve already had shingles, you should still get this vaccination because reoccurring cases are possible. The CDC also recommends that anyone previously vaccinated with Zostavax be revaccinated with Shingrix because it’s signifi cantly more eff ective. All Medicare Part D prescription drug plans cover shingles vaccinations, but coverage amounts, and reimbursement rules vary depending on where the shot is given. Check your plan. Tdap vaccine: A one-time dose of the Tdap vaccine, which covers tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis (whooping cough) is recommended to all adults. If you’ve already had a Tdap shot, you should get a tetanus-diphtheria (Td) booster shot every 10 years. All Medicare Part D prescription drug plans cover these vaccinations. Other vaccinations: Depending on your health conditions, preferences, age and future travel schedule, the CDC off ers a “What Vaccines Do You Need?” quiz at www2.CDC.gov/nip/ adultimmsched to help you determine what additional vaccines may be appropriate for you. You should also talk to your doctor during your next visit about which vaccinations you should get. To locate a site that offers any of these vaccines, visit VaccineFinder.org and type in your location. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

Page 18 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 15, 2020 DECISION | FROM PAGE 8 time in college baseball, and projected as a top three rounds pick in June 1991. The White Sox still wanted him but did have much to offer financially for the 30th round so Cappuccio continued his rehabilitation and went to earn an economics degree and play and graduate his senior year. A ninth-round draft choice by ChiSox Fully recovered, another banner year for Cappuccio came his senior year at Rollins, with a virtually unprecedented third NCAA All-American selection and another shot at the draft. The White Sox came knocking again, selecting him in the 9th round, with the 251st overall pick. It was the highest a Malden resident had ever been drafted by a Major League Baseball franchise and the first MLB draftee from Malden in ages. A professional baseball career awaited and Cappuccio hit the ground running, and being a polished college star at age 22, he was assigned to the Short Season Single-A South Bend (Ind.) White Sox, in the Midwest League, in the shadow of “Touchdown Jesus,” the home of Notre Dame. There were not one, but two angles to the team Cappuccio grew up rooting for, the Boston Red Sox, that season. First, his first-ever pro baseball manager was none other than Terry “Tito” Francona, who was in his first coaching gig to boot. The other Sox angle was when Hall of Famer Carlton Fisk, then with the White Sox, showed up one day during that 1992 season in South Bend on a rehab stint. He proceeded to hit a home run in the first of three games he played, his first minor league round-tripper since 1971. Cappuccio was doing fine in his pro debut season. He was leading the South Bend Sox in hitting as the season was winding down, at a .291 clip in a platooning role in the outfield and at designated hitter. In early August, he was shipped further east to the Utica (N.Y.) Blue Sox, along with teammate and future 17-year major leaguer Mike Cameron, to bolster their REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BUYER1 Yu, Ricky Artemenko, Iuliia Jin, Jieying Cohen, William Bonanno, Michael M Higgins-Cassidy, Austen J Price, Amanda T Blagden, Margo Toomey, Kevin M Deweese, Cristina E Goodrich, Scott Toomey, Lila D SAUGUS BUYER2 Yu, Jackie SELLER1 Zhou, Susanna Atkins, Sheila P Bordonaro, Joseph F Bisi, Carlos R Artemenko-Palma, Iuliia Segreve, Brian Fuccione, James A SELLER2 Mei, Dennis Atkins, James J Segreve, Sean Fuccione, Vanessa 98 West Border Road RT Purbrick, John A Gottschalk, Gary G Lewis, Melissa K bench for a playoff run. After an offseason working out in the Malden area with renowned hitting instructor Walt Hriniak, Cappuccio went off to his first spring with Chicago in February 1993 in Sarasota. He showed enough to be placed on the High Single-A roster of the Sarasota White Sox, but after a slow start which saw him slip under .200, he was placed back in South Bend with the newly named Silver Hawks and a new manager, Tony Franklin. Big season at South Bend for slugger Cappuccio thrived that season, establishing himself as an up-and-coming hitting prospect helping lead South Bend to a Midwest League Championship. He hit .305 with four homers and 52 RBIs in 101 games. He was among the team leaders in extra base hits (26 doubles, 6 triples) and led all everyday players in OPS (.813). Cappuccio was key man in a strong outfield contingent which included the likes of Cameron and another future major leaguer, Jimmy Hurst, who hit 20 home runs that season. The next season, in spring of 1994, looked like it could be a big one as to moving up the Chicago White Sox baseball ladder...for all three prospects.
