BEACON | FROM Page 18 Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of August 23-27, the House met for a total of 35 minutes while the Senate met for a total of seven minutes. Mon.

She attended Revere Schools & was an alumna of Revere High School, Class of 1961. While a student at Revere High School, she worked parttime in her Mom & Dad’s Restaurant, “The Prospect Grill” in Revere. Mr. & Mrs. Fay (Edward C. & Mabel E. (Bunnell) Fay operated the restaurant for nearly 20 years. Virginia was a “Dynamic Personality”, waiting on tables, cleaning & yes, sometimes asked to horn her cooking skills. The restaurant was a landmark within Revere. Virginia moved on & sought waitress positions locally at the “Barn Deli” Restaurant. Then after falling in love with Carl E. LeClair, Sr. & the advent of a large family of 6, she became a stay at home “Mom” until the youngest was of age. Then she returned to the work force, part-time & multi skilled. Both, Virginia & Carl had a proud & stalwart association with their church, St. Anthony of Padua Church of Revere, for many, many years. She was a devotee of the game of “Bingo” & suddenly found herself “in charge” & also a “senior caller” for over 200 anxious senior players. Only Virginia could handle such a feat. Liturgically, she was appointed lector & was dedicated to that position at St. Anthony’s. Virginia also worked for over 20 years at the Vertuccio & Smith, Home for Funerals, helping with maintaining the interior of the funeral home, which she took great pride in. Besides her beloved husband of 59 years, Carl E. LeClair, Sr., she is the devoted mother of Carl E. LeClair, Jr. & his fi ancé, Denise A. Killoren of Stoneham, Rosanne E. Frongillo & her husband, Vincent of Saugus, Marie V. Fronduto of Lynn & Michael A. Fronduto of New Hampshire, April J. DeLuca & her partner, Christine MacInnally of Lynn, Derek A. LeClair of Revere & the late Cheryl A. Ferragamo. Thirteen proud & faithful grandchildren also survive Virginia as well as 5 great grandchildren and one on the way. She is the dear sister of Diane Crowley & her late husband, Michael of Marshfield, Donald Chapman & his wife, Myrna of Summerside, P. E. I., Canada & the late Grace E. Cutillo & her late husband, Frank R., the late Edward C. “Eddie” Fay, Jr. & his surviving wife, Dolores Fay of Allenstown, N.H. & the late Joseph E. Fay & his late wife Lillian. Virginia is also lovingly survived by her closest friends, Dottie “Missy” Bernstein & her husband, Stephen of Saugus & Lorraine Todisco & Joann Giannino, both of Revere. Many caring nieces, nephews, grandnieces & grandnephews also survive Virginia as well as an uncountable number of extended family & friends. In lieu of flowers, remembrances may be made to the Rose Ferron Foundation of Rhode Island, 339 Arnold St., Woonsocket, RI 02895. The Rose Ferron Foundation of R.I., is very special to the LeClair Family, as they have spent many years of fundraising & prayer times for this most worthy cause.
