Pablo Rocha, 32, of Malden, pleaded guilty to one count of bank fraud. U.S. Senior District Court Judge Timothy S. Hillman scheduled sentencing for Nov. 16, 2023. Rocha was charged on June 26, 2023. Between July 2022 and December 2022, Rocha worked as a bank teller supervisor at a federally insured bank in Massachusetts. Rocha used his access to the bank’s vault to steal cash. Rocha then covered his tracks by writing false entries in the bank’s records and by processing fake transactions in the bank’s electronic records system to make it appear that the cash had been shipped to the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, July 28, 2023 Page 3 ~ Malden Musings ~ “Happy Birthday 104 Jack Garrity“ By Peter Levine E very once in a while, you meet a human being who blows away all expectations. That happened to yours truly recently, me walking away a better person for the encounter. Yes, that encounter fell into my lap, thanks to a friend, after I sat down with one of the “Greatest Generation,” 104 years young (July 26) World War II vet and retired City of Malden Fire Chief Jack Garrity. It was the pleasure of a lifetime meeting a real-life American hero and Malden superstar. I have a feeling that Jack might wince at that description; from what I have learned over time, real-life heroes, like Jack, are extremely modest. Cutting to the chase, as the cliche goes, they just don’t make them like “Smiling Jack” Garrity any longer – that’s for sure. I met with Jack, two of his lovely daughters, June and Lorri, and an old friend of the family, former CEO of the Highland Cafe Dave Angelo, at Jack’s current residence in North Reading. Jack wears his humility/modesty on his sleeve. Still sharp as a tack, we bantered back and forth for over an hour; we could have gone on longer; Jack didn’t tire – I did! His long, remarkable existence, by any measure, was/is a lesson in a life well lived; his family, the foundation. Daughter Lorri related how... “He has always been our moral compass and is the greatest dad in the world. He worked hard his entire life, motivated by his love of family, the fi re department, and his country. Couldn’t be prouder of him.” Jack’s dad Alexander had a huge impact in his life (I promised Jack I would try not to make this article about his father – insert smiley face). A beloved Malden police offi cer in the 1920s (retired in 1953), he was a role model for his son and instilled in him not only important life lessons but many of the intangibles that made Jack the man of honor he grew into. On a side note, Police Commissioner Salvatore Gennetti is a friend of Jack and was close with his dad. Butchie confi rmed to me everything Jack had told me about his father. He was genuinely loved by all. Butchie, by the way, in a show of friendship was gifted by Alex his police belt that he wore as a patrolman policing the streets of old Faulkner and Suff olk Square. Alex was revered by the large Jewish population (he even spoke a little Yiddish, I was told) for his honesty ANGELO’S A FULL SERVICE 1978-2023 Celebrating 45 Years in Business!

I guess ya gotta start with his war record. After graduating Malden High in 1938 and after the attack on Pearl Harbor (already a member of the Malden Fire Dept. in 1941), he enlisted and served with the Army’s 14th Flying Tigers. While in the Pacifi c, he served as a radio operator, a mechanic and a gunner on B-25s fl ying in over 50 combat missions over India, Burma, China and the air off ensive over Japan! Think about that for a moment. Fifty missions!! He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal (with oak leaf cluster), fi ve Bronze Battle Stars, the Good Conduct Medal, a Victory Medal, the Asiatic-Pacifi c Ribbon and the American Theater Ribbon! Holy cow! Audie Murphy ain’t got nothing on our Jack Thomas Garrity! Amazing! Miscellaneous takeaways from my sit down with Jack: 1. As far as his longevity goes, I jokingly suggested to him with fl ying over 50 combat missions in World War II and working for the fire department for over 40 years in (mostly) pre-Urban Renewal Malden that possibly “luck” might have come into play at some point in time. He adroitly commented, concurring, “better lucky than good, Peter.” Love it, Mr. G! 2. I knew I was “In Like Flynn” when we both agreed that Chuckin‘ Charlie O’Rourke may have been Malden’s GOAT. I caught Jack by surprise when I told him I was a big fan of Charlie and knew all about his high school, college and pro careers. Jack remarked something to the eff ect that if “you know who Charlie O’Rourke is, you’re an okay Joe in my book.” Made my day.

One Saugus High School grad had that great fortune. John Antonopoulos, a 1970 SHS Graduate, who is more commonly referred to around the world as Johnny A., did and continues to do so, 50 years later! Over the course of his career, Johnny has performed as both a solo artist and a member of other bands. Some notable bands he has been a member of were the Peter Wolf Band (J. Geils frontman) and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band The Yardbirds. The name “Johnny A.” might not be mainstream, but there’s no doubt it’s synonymous with guitar. Bitten at an early age by the desire to perform like his idols (Clapton, Beck and Page), he never relented. A devotee of the 1960s British Invasion, it gave him a goal. By the 1970s, he was performing throughout the New England area, drawing attention from established musicians, like Derek & The Dominos’ keyboardist Bobby Whitlock and Creedence Clearwater Revival’s Doug Clifford. All this is to say that Johnny A. has the chops, and that’s not to mention his prolific solo career. Spanning three full-length albums, Johnny A. has earned a Grammy Award nomination, the honor of Boston Music Awards, “Blues Artist of the Year 2010,” and a spot in the revered Boston Music Hall of Fame. With all this said, it will be like old-home week, as Johny A. takes the stage with special guest Myke Scavone, of The Yardbirds, joining.

Marenghi’s conduct was “despicable,” acting U.S. Attorney Joshua Levy said in a statement. “Domestic violence is a truly haunting reality that is far too pervasive in our society. At its core, that is what the prosecution of Mr. Marenghi was all about,” he said. “He was looking to engage in the most extreme form of domestic violence by plotting the murder of his wife.” Authorities began investigating in January 2021 when a witness went to law enforcement and reported that Marenghi had complained about the restraining order and asked for assistance in killing his wife, prosecutors said. Federal investigators directed that person to introduce Marenghi to an undercover agent posing as a contract Massimo Marenghi, 57, a Malden resident, was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for conspiring to hire a hit man to kill his wife.

The Malden man met with the agent in Portsmouth, N.H., discussed a price of $10,000, provided the agent with a photo of his wife's home and explained how to evade surveillance cameras.

The event culminated at noon with Grooversity Boston’s Drumline, aNova Brazil, leading a 400-kidstrong parade along the shore to the lifeguarded swimming area, where they cooled off with a big splash into the waters of Constitution Beach. “This event was designed and voted on by East Boston kids as part of our participatory budgeting process in this year’s Better Beaches Program” said Save the Harbor Better Beaches Director Maya Smith. “This program is a democratic process where community members decide how part of a budget is spent, allowing them to vote on and pitch their own events.” “Any opportunity to shift power into the hands of the people of Boston makes a positive impact among our constituents,” said Senator Lydia Edwards, who is Vice Chair of the Metropolitan Beaches Commission (MBC). “Our community members share ownership of so many incredible beaches, so it is exciting to create programming that empowers people to harness that ownership and directly select events that reflect them.” “This fantastic annual event directly addresses the feedback we heard on how we can make these spectacular public places more equitable and welcoming to everyone,” said Representative Adrian Madaro, who is an MBC Co-Chair. “Plus it’s so fun to see all the kids out on the beach after all our work towards more accessible, clean, and safe beaches.” “We couldn’t do events and programs like this without the sustained and generous support of our partners and funders, especially the Healey/Driscoll Administration and the Department of Conservation and Recreation,” said Save The Harbor/ Save The Bay Executive Director Chris Mancini. “We’re so grateful, too for our incredible donors at Liberty Mutual Foundation, Coca-Cola Company, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Eastern Salt Company, Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, JetBlue, John Hancock Financial Services, Massport, the Mass Cultural Council, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, and the National Grid Foundation, and of course the hundreds of individual donors who support us every year.” Mancini went on to acknowledge donors Alexandria, Amazon, Bay State Cruise Company, BXP–Atlantic Wharf, City of J& • Reliable Mowing Service • Spring & Fall Cleanups • Mulch & Edging • Sod or Seed Lawns • Shrub Planting & Trimming • Water & Sewer Repairs Joe Pierotti, Jr. IDiiL Learning Center and Save the Harbor/Save the Bay’s partners from JetBlue are shown at the annual Beach Bash in Constitution Beach.

Page 14 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, July 28, 2023 MUSINGS | FROM PAGE 3 CASH VALUE LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES ration of the five year look back period. If the policies are paid up with no more required premiums to be paid, the life insurance policies can be transferred to an irrevocable trust as well in order to commence the five year look back period. Keep in mind that since term f applying for MassHealth it is important to realize that MassHealth will count the cash value in a whole life, universal life or variable universal life insurance policy if the face value of the policy is greater than $1,500. This is important as the community spouse can have no more than $148,620 in countable assets and the nursing home spouse can only have $2,000 or less in countable assets in order to be eligible for MassHealth longterm care benefits. If the community spouse has two cash value life insurance policies and each has a face value of $800, then the total face value would exceed $1,500 thereby rendering the cash value of both policies a countable asset. If the cash value policies are I owned by the spouse applying for MassHealth benefits, ownership of the policies can be transferred to the community spouse in order to reduce the nursing home spouse’s countable assets to less than $2,000. There is no disqualifying transfer when one spouse transfers countable assets to the other spouse. However, the community spouse’s total countable assets cannot exceed $148,620, including the total cash value of all of the life insurance policies. An advanced planning strategy might be to transfer ownership of the policies to the children in order to commence the five year look back period. Each of your children could also be the beneficiary of each life insurance policy. This will serve to remove the countable asset out of the name(s) of the parent(s) when you feel confident neither of the parents will be applying for MassHealth benefits prior to the expiinsurance policies have no cash value, they are not countable assets for MassHealth eligibility purposes. The community spouse would certainly want to make sure that the children are named the beneficiaries of the life insurance policy and not the spouse who is entering a nursing home who is either applying for MassHealth benefits or who is already on MassHealth. Another option would be for the community spouse to name his or her estate as the beneficiary of the life insurance policies (cash value or term) and include a testamentary trust provision in his or her Will that would provide discretionary distributions of income and principal for the nursing home spouse. Assets in such a testamentary trust would not be a countable asset for MassHealth purposes and income and principal distributions would serve to provide supplemental benefits to the nursing home spouse that would not be provided by MassHealth or any other governmental programs. With advanced planning, you can transfer ownership of any life insurance policy to an irrevocable trust in order to remove the policy from the countable resource pool. Five years after such a transfer, the cash value in any life insurance policy will no longer be countable. If the insured were to die, the death benefit would be paid to the Trust and the surviving spouse would be entitled to the income generated from the investment of the life insurance proceeds, but not be entitled to receive any principal. It is always good to review your life insurance policies in order to determine if any advanced planning strategies should be employed. Joseph D.

Picked up pieces while sitting and listening...Jack remembers, like it was yesterday, that terrible night in 1972 when the Centre Methodist burned down; cites his cutting the firefighter work week down to 42 hours from 84 hours as one of his greatest accomplishments; he loved the job and the camaraderie he shared with fellow firefighters; the Highland Cafe was his favorite restaurant, and Dave (Angelo) met future wife Donna by chance one night when she came into the Highland with Jack’s daughter Lorri. 4. And finally, possibly my favorite takeaway from my sit down with Jack was his philosophy on life and longevity; one of life’s simplest perhaps, but for many, the hardest to actually apply: “Everything in moderation and enjoy every day.” Bam! He continued – I am paraphrasing a bit – also musing that “worrying” just ain’t worth it. That life has its ups and downs, they will also pass (Jack a George Harrison fan?). “Enjoy the moment” is what I’ll always remember. Thank you for that, sir. I put the call out to Facebook for “Friends of Jack” to wish him a happy birthday. I was flooded with well-wishers – over 75 before I submitted this article. Here are but a few... • Beth Lowenstein: “HBD Chief! My dad worked with you on the MFD and my sister Rie and I went to school with your daughter June. Enjoy your special day.” • Rick J. Wilson: “I worked for Chief Garrity when I was in high school. Just the nicest human I can remember. HBD to you Chief.” • Retired Firefighter Jimmy McGonagle: “HBD Chief Garrity!” • Retired Firefighter Mike Craven: “My dad was on the MFD FESTIVAL | FROM PAGE 12 tistic excellence. Patrons can anticipate top-tier talent and a celebration of the performing arts that will leave a lasting impression.

HBD Chief!” • Ward 1 Councillor Peg Crowe: “HBD Chief Garrity!” • Amanda Boyle Grazioso: “HBD from the entire Boyle family!” • Steve Jesi: “Happiest 104th birthday Chief Garrity! The Barnes Ave neighborhood was always safe when you were around. God bless you.” • Former Ward 3 Councillor Paul DiPietro: “HBD Chief! Fond memories of Brother Garrity, from the 19 Claremont St DiPietro’s.” • Marty Keane: “HBD Chief! Hope to visit you soon!” • Robin Farren: “Gentleman Jack, happy 104th BD to Lorri‘s sweet father! Always a delightful fellow. You’ve done well Mr. Garrity.” • Barbara Mcglinchy: “Happy birthday from Barbara and Kevin Mcglinchy!” • Cliff Jacobs: “HBD Chief Garrity, you were always a fair man. 104 – my Lord, what staying power! God bless you, Chief!” As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character Columbo would say, “Just one more thing, sir” – retired Malden Police Chief Kevin Molis at times may come off like Sergeant Joe Friday (“just the facts, ma’am”), but don’t let that particular facade fool ya; he’s another Maldonian with as much compassion as all outdoors – one who never fails to deliver, straight fire from his heart and soul. His reverence for those that came before us, for those that made a difference in our lives, is legendary. Thank you, Chief, for these thoughtful and heartfelt words: “growing up in Malden you would most often hang around with kids whose dads were cops or firemen. Chief Garrity was one of them. He was someone who we all respected as an American and Malden icon for his service to our counyoung artists with a platform to express themselves and grow in their craft,” says Greater Boston Stage Company Education Associate Autumn Blazon-Brown. “We are incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication these young actors have put into their performances, and we can’t wait to share their talents with you!” All tickets are $25.

He carried himself as a dedicated, highly competent professional and he did it with a quiet and dignified humility. He is a living American and Malden story, and I am happy that it has been a lengthy story of 104 years which I hope has many more pages…” Postscript 1: At this point, much to my regret, I must stop babbling. With only 1,500 words allotted each week, I am almost at my limit. With that said, let’s hear from a good friend of Jack’s, the Honorable Mayor of Malden, Gary Christenson: “they say that everyone changes over time, but I would have to say that one exception is Jack Garrity. Each time I go to visit him, I marvel that at 104 years old we continue to have the best discussions about everything from WWII to the Malden High School Golden Tornadoes. Speaking of which, I like to think that it was Jack’s well wishes just before last year’s football game at Fenway Park that propelled the team to the big win. Our motto is ‘Strong Past, Proud Future’ and if there is anyone that is indicative of that motto, it’s Jack Garrity. Happy birthday, my friend!” Postscript 2: Jack, I sincerely hope you had a wonderful birthday and that you enjoyed my humble tribute. It was love at first sight when we met – and we will meet again soon, my friend. With that said: “Happy trails to you, till we meet again, some trails are happy ones, others are blue, It’s the way you ride the trail that counts, here’s a happy one for you.” Happy trails Jack, till we meet again. —Peter is a longtime Malden resident and a regular contributor to The Malden Advocate.

Chuha Clerk July 28, August 4, 2023 aavvyvy S avy avvy S oiorenniioor nior by Jim Miller Tips and Tools for Coping with Vision Loss Dear Savvy Senior, Can you recommend some good resources for seniors with vision loss? My husband was recently diagnosed with macular degeneration, which has deteriorated his central vision, and he’s become very discouraged. Worried Wife Dear Worried, I’m very sorry to hear about your husband’s eye condition. Unfortunately, there are about 20 million Americans living with macular degeneration today. Over time, this progressive disease can rob people of their central vision, making everyday tasks like driving a car, reading a magazine or watching television extremely challenging. Here are some tips and resources that can help. Low Vision Help If your husband hasn’t already done so, he needs to see a low-vision specialist for a comprehensive examination. Low-vision specialists are ophthalmologist or optometrist with additional credentials or specialization in low vision testing, diagnosis, and treatment. A low vision exam, which is much diff erent from a typical eye exam, will explore how your husband’s eye condition is aff ecting his day-to-day life, how he’s adapting emotionally and prescribe solutions to help him regain as much day-to-day functioning as possible. Your next step is to get your husband to a nearby vision rehabilitation service. These services, which are run by state or nonprofi t organizations, or private eye care clinics, help people with all types of uncorrectable vision impairments. Most state and nonprofi t services are free or low-cost, while private clinics typically charge a fee or may accept Medicare. While vision rehabilitation does not restore lost sight, it does help people maximize their existing sight, or, if they have no vision, it can equip them with techniques and tools to help them maintain an independent lifestyle. Services include counseling, along with training on how to perform daily living tasks with low vision, and how to use visual and adaptive devices and assistive technologies that can help improve quality of life. They also off er guidance for adapting your home that will make it safer and easier for your husband to maneuver and can help him locate low-vision support groups. Some agencies will even send their specialist out to work with him in the comfort of your own home. To fi nd a vision rehabilitation service near you ask your husband’s eye doctor for a referral, or you can locate services yourself by calling the American Printing House (APH) Connect Center at 800-232-5463. Online Tools Another convenient place to get help for your husband is online at VisionAware (VisionAware.org). This free website that’s part of the APH Connect Center is specifi cally designed for older adults new to vision loss. It provides information on eye diseases and disorders, along with dozens of practical tips, information and instructional videos on living with vision loss. These include concepts for adapting your home to make it easier to navigate, techniques for traveling safely outside the home, and various tips on how to manage things like fi nances, medications, and other tasks such as cooking, cleaning, grooming, reading, writing, doing hobbies and more. VisionAware also provides a comprehensive list of more than 2,000 low vision agencies and organizations across the country that’s searchable by state or category. Another terrifi c low vision resource that’s available to your husband is Hadley (Hadley.edu), which is a nonprofi t organization and partner of the National Eye Institute and the National Eye Health Education Program. Hadley off ers online discussion groups, audio podcasts and dozens of free online workshop videos to help empower the blind and visually impaired. With Hadley, your husband will learn new ways to do things that have become more diffi cult due to his vision loss and connect him with a network of peers who understand what he’s going through. 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.
