Vogler O nly 137 registered Saugus voters showed up at the Saugus Public Library’s Community Room during six days of In-Person Early Voting in August (24-30) for last month’s state primary election. The library voter turnout for the presidential primary during six days of In-Person Early Voting (Feb. 24-March 1) for this year’s Presidential Primary was twice as good. But the 272 voters it drew was just a fraction of the town’s 22,154 registered voters. “I think In-Person Early Voting for the primaries is a waste,” Saugus Town Clerk Ellen Joyce Schena said as her offi ce staff and team of part-time election workers prepared for another dozen days of In-Person Early voting for this year’s Presidential Election. “The primaries don’t draw a lot of people anyway. I think you should either have In-Person Early Voting or Early Voting by Mail. Nobody comes out for the primaries. You don’t really need two of them for the primaries,” she said. A vast majority of Saugus voters will still wait for the Nov. CAMPAIGN | SEE PAGE 2 Brenton H.

The clinic is open to Saugus residents only, according to CAMPAIGN | FROM PAGE 1 5 Presidential Election. But with a hotly contested presidential race this year, there’s enough on the ballot to stir great interest among town voters who choose to exercise their early In-Person Voting rights tomorrow – 18 days before the election. Voting will take place from a press release issued by the town manager’s office. “The latest Pfizer COVID-19 booster and seasonal flu vaccine will be available, at no charge to residents. Free COVID-19 tests will also be available for residents. Walkins are welcome for the clinic.

Residents can also call Saugus Director of Public Health Fralick at 781-231-4120 with any questions about the clinic. Saugus Town Clerk Schena noted that from a financial standpoint In-Person voting can cost more per voter than voting absentee or Early Mailin Voting. “Election workers make $15 an hour. Three people work 8-hour days for six days and there’s over-time for the regular staff,” Schena said. “There’s also building maintenance before and after the voting period in the library. Police officers may be called in to work a detail on Saturdays,” she said. The state does give some money back to communities for municipal costs related to In-Person Early voting, according to Schena. Schena said there’s also a situation in which voters may vote absentee in addition to In-Person Early Voting, which is usually caught by a system of checks and balances, but the task of finding duplicate votes does contribute to increased resources, Schena said. Many more citizens who don’t vote on Election Day are inclined to vote by Mailin Early Voting and Absentee voting than by In-Person Early Voting, according to Schena. “Last month, we mailed out close to 4,000 Early Voting and Absentee mail-in ballots, and we got back just under 1,600,” Schena said. “For the March Presidential Primary, we mailed out about 3,700 ballots and got back just under 1,600 back,” she said. Schena said that she has no problem with the In-Person Early Voting process for general or presidential elections. She recalled that initially in 2016, In-Person Early Voting lasted only a week and had more restrictions in place. “COVID changed all of that in 2020,” Schena said. “It went to two weeks with fewer restrictions.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, OCTObEr 18, 2024 Page 3 Saugus Historical Society World War ii Commemoration continues with stories from Saugonians who recalled personal experiences By Laura Eisner T he October meeting of the Saugus Historical Society was a continuation of the commemoration of World War II that was started with our April meeting. Jack Klecker, a Navy veteran from a more recent period, spoke about some of the contributions of the Navy to the successful outcome of World War II and brought a model of a Navy ship to show the audience. He also spoke about one particular Naval offi cer, John Howard Currant, who had an interesting history, earning a medal from Russia while serving in the U.S. Navy! Currant was not born in Saugus but he graduated from Saugus High School, living with his grandmother in East Saugus at that time. His actions during the war saved many Russian and U.S. sailors, which is the reason he was recognized by both nations. He was the uncle of Arlene Decareau, who attended the meeting with her husband Eugene Decareau.

Page 4 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, OCTObEr 18, 2024 What makes the “Orange Glow” go? Carl Spencer, who participated in all 22 Halloween seasons, cites a dedicated corps of volunteers who work with First Congregational Church to keep a town tradition going By Mark E. Vogler T he guy they call the point man of this year’s “Pumpkin Patch” in Saugus Center has spent countless hours over the past 22 years, volunteering his efforts to help make the sale of pumpkins and other good trucked in from Navajo Reservation in Farmington, N.M., a Saugus Center tradition. But Carl Spencer is modest when he talks about his ongoing role. “I’ve only been involved the last five or six years as the coordinator,” Spencer said in an interview this week as he helped his brother Brenton close down “the Patch” for the night on the lawn of First Congregational Church. “Other years, I helped – all 22 of them – just not running it. A lot of people who volunteered over the years have helped make this what it is,” he said. If there is one person who deserves special credit, he said, it’s his sister, Audrie Spencer, who now lives in Haverhill. “She’s the one who started it. She tried to do it as a fund-raiser [for First Congregational Church],” Spencer said, recalling how she learned about a program called Pumpkin Patch USA, which coordinates the destination of the pumpkins from the Navajo Reservation to communities all over the country. “She happened to see the information. She thought it was a good idea. And it was. Twenty-two years later, it’s become a tradition.” A second shipment of 1,600 large pumpkins arrived last weekend (Oct. 12). In addition, seven boxes containing 300 to 350 pumpkins apiece. “We had students from the High School and some of the Charter School kids helping us out,” Spencer said. “If you count those little ones, that’s 3,000 pumpkins total we received. Now we’ve got to try to sell them all,” he said. The church and the Navajo Reservation both benefit from the sale of pumpkins. But the agreement the church has with Pumpkin Patch USA won’t allow the sale of any pumpkins after Halloween, according to Spencer. “If there are any leftover on Nov. 1st, we will put a sign out that says ‘free pumpkins,’” he said. “There will be people who come by who have animals. They will either feed the animals or use the pumpkins for something else,” he said. “The smaller ones are good for cooking – you make pies and pumpkin bread or whatever. But you wouldn’t want to eat the big ones. The animals like them. The squirrels love them,” he said. What makes the “Pumpkin Patch” so special? “We got a lot of people coming back year after year who tell us that they wait specifically for these pumpkins to arrive,” Spencer said. “We had a guy a week ago from North Andover who used to live in Saugus come down with his kids to buy a pumpkin. A lot of Saugus people and people from neighboring towns keep coming back,” he said. “We got a lot of people just passing through. We got some people from Germany a couple of years ago who stopped and asked what we were doing. And we get people from Japan and South East Asia who’ve never even seen a pumpkin.” The vast number of visGerry D’Ambrosio Attorney-at-Law Is Your Estate in Order?

What began as a fund-raiser for the church’s Youth Group has continued to flourish as somewhat of a communitywide autumn attraction. Pumpkin sales have also helped fund the annual Danny Panico Memorial Scholarship Award. Panico, a longtime church member and Pumpkin Patch worker, died in 2017, and the scholarship is meant to honor his contributions. Local residents say if you hang around the “Pumpkin Patch” long enough, the spirit will move you. For some folks who travel great distances to get here, it’s a spur of the moment experience that they want to be a part of. “A few years ago, we had a truck driver from out-ofstate – the same truck driver who delivered the pumpkins – gave $100 to the church,” Spencer recalled. As long as First Congregational Church is around, Spencer figures, the great pumpkin tradition of Saugus will live on. The Annual Pumpkin Patch will run through Halloween, Oct. 31. Pumpkins of all sizes are displayed on the church lawn and will be available for purchase every day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Volunteers are also needed to help staff the various shifts for the selling of pumpkins. If interested, please contact Carl Spencer at 781-233-9196 or just stop by and sign up.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, OCTObEr 18, 2024 Page 5 A different Dunkin’ shop struck by motor vehicle, but business survives a shutdown By Mark E. Vogler A 55-year-old Lynn man has lost his privilege to drive indefinitely after his Ford pickup truck struck the Dunkin’ building at 35 Lincoln Ave. last Friday (Oct. 11) “Upon investigation, that driver was unable to explain to officers how he had driven into the building [and] as a result he was issued a citation for negligent operation,” the Saugus Police Department said in a press release about the accident, which occurred shortly after noon. “In addition, the driver was reported to the RMV as an immediate threat. As a result of that report, he will lose his right to operate a motor vehicle pending a hearing,” the statement said. The driver, who was not named, will appear at Lynn District Court sometime in the next few months, according to Saugus Police Chief Michael Ricciardelli. The chief said there is nothing additional to report at this time about the traffic citation the man faces. This is the second time in the past six months that a motor vehicle has struck one of the town’s local Dunkin’ shops. The Dunkin’ shop at 42 Hamilton St. finally opened recently – just days before the Lincoln Avenue crash – after being closed since April. Last Friday’s crash caused a HISTORICAL | FROM PAGE 3 fected by what was occurring in Europe and Asia, and sometimes close to our own shores. Several members of the faculty and many graduates left to fight or to work in war-related industries. Several members of the audience shared stories of their own relatives who fought in World War II. The Historical Society plans to pick up the World War II story again in the spring, sharing more stories of Saugonians who were involved.

Page 8 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, OCTObEr 18, 2024 ~ Saugus High School Sachems Weekly Sports roundup ~ By Dom Nicastro SAUGUS GIRLS SOCCER TEAM PICKS UP ANOTHER TWO WINS The Saugus High School girls soccer team continued its standout season, currently boasting an 11-1-2 record under fi rst-year Head Coach April Martinez. Ranked as one of the top teams in Massachusetts Division 3 (No. 6 out of 68 teams), Martinez’s squad has impressed on both ends of the fi eld, consistently competing at a high level. Martinez refl ected on the team’s recent 4-2 win over Bishop Fenwick, a game that held personal significance. “Saugus and Fenwick have always been rivalries, more so now because I used to coach there and had those girls for four years,” she said. The game, which was tied 2-2 with less than fi ve minutes to play, saw the Sewell sisters – Shawn and Shalyn – play key roles in securing the victory. Shawn Sewell scored the go-ahead goal with an assist from Shalyn, and minutes later, Shalyn found her sister again for a header to clinch the win. The game also served as a fundraiser for cancer research, a cause close to Martinez’s heart. The eff ort resonated with the team and the community, bringing awareness to breast cancer research. “I reached out to Mass General Hospital, the cancer If We Happen To Meet By Accident ...

Madison Botta led the way with a hat trick and two assists, while Shawn Sewell added two goals, and Shalyn Sewell contributed a goal and two assists. Danica Schena had one assist. Martinez gave her second-string players signifi cant time in the second half. Looking ahead, Martinez knows the importance of her team’s upcoming matches. They are now trying to secure the highest seed possible in the postseason. “We have Peabody, which is always a big match. They also tied Danvers, so that’s going to be a big match for us,” she said. While the offensive firepower of players like Botta and the Sewell sisters garners attention, Martinez is quick to credit her defense. “We wouldn’t be as successful as we are without my back four,” she said, highlighting the leadership of captain Layla Manderson, who, “in my opinion, is probably one of the strongest defenders in the league.” Martinez also pointed out the contributions of sophomore center TIRED OUT | FROM PAGE 7 fi lled and the tires kept coming,” he said. This week, Brazis laid out a plan he hopes will allow for back Maria Garcia and wing defenders Liliana Hernandez and Ashley Resendez, noting how well the group has jelled this season. As Saugus gears up for the fi nal stretch of the regular season, Martinez remains confi dent in her team’s ability to compete at a high level. “Everybody has been contributing to the points this year, which is great,” she said, emphasizing the depth and versatility of her roster. With only four games remaining before the postseason, Saugus is positioning itself as a strong contender in Division 3. “Peabody and St. Mary’s will be good preps for the tournament,” Martinez said, noting that the competition will only intensify as they approach the playoff s.

SAUGUS HIGH SCHOOL HALL OF FAME INDUCTION CEREMONY There will be a Saugus High School Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Saturday, November 2 at 6:00pm at Saugus struggles in 21-0 loss to Salem as off ensive woes continue By Dom Nicastro T he Saugus High School football team couldn’t finish off drives in a 21-0 loss to Salem at home on Thursday, Oct. 10. It was a game where their defense made key stops but the offense struggled to capitalize. The shutout dropped Saugus to 1-4 on the season, while Salem improved to 3-2 after the Northeastern Conference matchup. The Sachems started freshman Eli Fialho at quarterback, making his varsity debut. Head Coach Steve Cummings explained the decision to move Jordan Rodriguez, normally the starting quarterback, to receiver in order to leverage his athleticism in other ways. “Jordan’s a really good athlete, and with him at quarterback, he was always in the teeth of the defense,” Cummings said. “We thought we could get him some easier touches at receiver, where he could use his athleticism and fantastic hands. So we went with Eli at quarterback, and I think he did well for his fi rst game.” Fialho showed some promise, connecting with Jay Arnett on a nice crossing route early on and scrambling for a fi rst down to keep a drive alive. The freshman almost connected on some deeper throws that could have changed the complexion of the game. “Eli made some nice throws and missed a couple of deep balls by just inches,” Cummings said. “We’re literally talking inches away from touchdowns. It’s just part of the growing pains of having a young quarterback out there, but he throws the ball well, and he’s making strides every week.” Despite the off ensive struggles, Saugus’ defense kept them in the game. Cody Munafo was instrumental in the fi rst half, making back-to-back big plays to force a turnover on downs, including a 7-yard tackle for loss and a sack. Ryan Shea was a standout in the secondary, coming up with two interceptions that gave Saugus much-needed opportunities. “Ryan is such a ball hawk at safety,” Cummings said. “He reads the game so well and breaks on the ball quickly. He almost had a third interception, but he collided with another defender at the last second. He’s been rock solid for us all year.” Salem’s off ense, led by running back Alvin Laurent, broke through in the second quarter with an 11-yard touchdown run, giving the Witches a 7-0 lead at halftime. Saugus had its chances, including after Shea’s second interception set them up at the Salem 41 with 28 seconds left. But the Sachems couldn’t convert, leaving them scoreless at the break. The Witches extended their lead in the third quarter when Laurent scored his second touchdown of the night on an 8-yard run, putting Salem up 14-0.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, OCTObEr 18, 2024 Page 11 Saugus Gardens in the Fall Here’s what’s blooming in town this week to make your walks more enjoyable By Laura Eisener T he flower show at the Topsfield Fair had two different displays in the Garden Club hallway section of the flower barn – one set of flower arrangements and plant entries was judged on the Friday the fair opened and displayed until Tuesday evening, while the second set of displays was judged on Wednesday morning and shown until the fair ended Monday night. Some members of the Saugus Garden Club displayed native plants from their garden in the latter display and were thrilled to find they won awards. A common witch hazel (Hamamelis virginiana) sprig from a shrub in my garden was entered in the Garden Club’s competition and won first prize! Donna Manoogian won two awards for stems of native plants she entered from her garden: second prize for a goldenrod (Solidago sp.) and third prize for her butterfly weed (Asclepias sp.) seed pods. The common witch hazel is the last native shrub to bloom in our area, with four-petalled yellow flowers blooming any time from September to early December, depending on weather. Its foliage also turns a bright yellow and steals the show until the leaves fall, then the small yellow blossoms become very noticeable on the bare twigs. In damp areas at Breakheart, many of these shrubs are in bloom. New Guinea impatiens (Impatiens hawkeri) are annuals that bloom late into the fall, usually until a killing frost. Back in 1994 one of my clients had some that bloomed until November 22 when plummeting temperatures and an early snowstorm put an end to them. Some other annuals, such as marigolds (Tagetes spp.), also can keep blooming despite cooling temperatures until the air temperatures reach 32 degrees Fahrenheit. One of the latest garden plants to bloom in fall is white snakeroot (Ageratina altissima ‘Chocolate’, formerly known as Eupatorium rugosum ‘Chocolate’) because of its brownish foliage during the summer, which gradually turns greener in fall. The small flower heads are white and provide an intriguing contrast against the darker leaves. The common name snakeroot refers to the old belief that the plant could cure snakebite venom. However, another common name, fall poison, seems closer to the fact since parts of this plant are poisonous if eaten. It is blooming beautifully in Dee LeMay’s garden now, managing to stand out among all the vivid colors of fall leaves and annual flowers that surround it at this season. Irises are generally not thought of as fall bloomers since we most often see irises blooming near Memorial Day. However, some Common witch hazel from a shrub in Saugus blooms in the floral exhibit at the Topsfield Fair. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) cultivars can bloom again in fall if the conditions are right. One of the most consistent rebloomers is ‘Immortality’ (Iris germanica ‘Immortality’), which can rebloom around Columbus Day or later. Its white flowers are slightly fragrant, a breath of spring near the close of the gardening year. Fall color is nearing its peak in our area. Maples continue to glow in bright reds and oranges, especially red maple (Acer rubrum) and sugar maple (Acer saccharum). Both are native to New England woods. Red maples are popular as street trees as they are fairly tolerant of road salt. In early New England, sugar maples were among the most popular street trees in rural areas, but as road surfaces were changed from dirt and gravel to asphalt pavement, deicing chemicals and salts required to prevent winter skidding made it impossible for sugar maples to thrive close to the roads. Honey locusts (Gleditsia triacJack Skelly, Zero the dog and friends enjoy the fall weather near the Saugus River. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) anthos) are glowing bright yellow in many locations around town. They were very popular street trees in the 1970s to 1990s largely because of their compound leaves with tiny leaflets, which minimized the necessity of raking in the fall. Honey locusts can be found in Saugus Center along Central Street, at Donna Mano o gian ’s prize-winning butterfly weed and goldenrod traveled back to Saugus from the Topsfield Fair in style. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) Dee LeMay’s ‘Chocolate’ Eupatorium is a perennial treat for the late October Garden – blooming along with colorful annual New Guinea impatiens.

(Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) the Senior Center and in many parking lots of Route 1 businesses. For a time, it was almost the only tree species considered for urban areas, but in recent decades planners have realized that diversity is better and are trying to use a greater variety of tree species. Too many of one species planted close together encourages the spread of disease and insects, The threat of mosquito and tick-borne diseases has decreased as the weather cools, so people can throw on an extra sweater and go on their walks with a bit more confidence or finish up their garden chores before the ground freezes. The fall foliage adds so much to the autumn scenery around town, along with the scarecrows, pumpkins and other “fall-oween” decorations seen around town. Beware of the skeletons and zombies sprouting from the ground, ghosts oozing through the windows, giant green hands waiting to pounce, witches who can’t wait to put a spell on you and all the other spooky things that have appeared in local gardens! Some of these can best be viewed in the daylight, while others have a more dramatic presence at night, with lights that can’t fully be appreciated until after dark. Last night’s full moon was the hunter’s moon, also this year’s biggest and brightest of the supermoons. It will still look very close to full tonight, so it is worth an evening walk, especially if you missed it last night.

Page 12 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, OCTObEr 18, 2024 The Sounds of Saugus By Mark E. Vogler Good morning, Saugus Just in time for the finest parts of the fall season! The second floor auditorium at Town Hall looked brand spanking new when I checked it out late Tuesday afternoon. The door was open just wide enough where I could get a good look at the new paint, and the floors that were buffed up were nice and shiny. Just in time to host the Board of Selectmen’s meeting that was scheduled there for last night. And just in time for next Wednesday’s (Oct. 23) free COVID-19/Flu Vaccine Clinic scheduled from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. To tell you the truth, even with the chairs and tables still stacked up on the stage or on the floor immediately outside the auditorium, I’ve never seen the place looking this great. Now, after making the auditorium aesthetically pleasing, all the town has to do is get an audible sound system installed so the acoustics of the chamber are enhanced, too. Stay tuned. Parental Misconduct at Serino Stadium It’s just too bad that a small group of adults from Saugus and Salem who were attending a Saugus Youth Football game on Oct. 6 spoiled things for the two teams of kids and their coaches who were competing Food Pantry notes The Saugus United Parish Food Pantry will be open today (Friday, Oct. 18) from 9:30-11 a.m. at 50 Essex St. in the basement of Cliftondale Congregational Church.

It’s also too bad that the incident once again sparked TV and radio coverage that sullied Saugus’ reputation and public image. I’d wager to say that the childish and bratty behavior of adults at a youth sporting event happens in practically every community in Massachusetts. The Saugus incident won’t be the first or last time it happens in Saugus or anyplace else. It gets me thinking about the similar misconduct I observed when I managed a youth league LET THE PROS HANDLE IT! ™ Say “NO” to Cleaning Out Your Gutters. baseball team of kids from ages 10 to 12 during the summer of my senior year in High School in Swansea, Mass., and the first two years of my college experience at UMass Amherst. I remember keeping a diary of the numerous transgressions by parents that I observed, transforming it into a term paper for a Sociology Class at UMass and later handing it to a sportswriter for The Spectator, a weekly newspaper that was published in the neighboring town of Somerset. The young sportswriter used the recycled college term paper as the basis of a mini-expose on parental misconduct by grownups at Swansea Little League events.

In my three years of managing the Tigers in the Minor League branch of the Swansea Little League, I witnessed some outrageous behavior of parents who lost sight of the ideals and purpose of youth baseball – to promote physical fitness, good sportsmanship and teamwork among the young athletes. In too many unfortunate cases, youth baseball in my hometown became an outlet for adults to fulfill their sports fantasies through the lives of their kids. I’m sure it goes on in any community. Parents get carried away emotionally over a kid’s game. They take it too seriously and bad things happen. Bad things, like fighting the parents of their kids’ rival in the stands, like what happened at Serino Stadium. Saugus 4-1-1 gearing up for 2025 Selectman Corinne Riley, who was the driving force behind a nifty program that helps newcomers to Saugus – as well as old-timers – get better acquainted with their community, said she regrets that “Saugus 4-1-1” didn’t happen this fall after successful Saturdays at the Saugus Middle-High School over the past two years. “The Saugus 4-1-1 Committee would like everyone to know that the Saugus 4-1-1 event will be taking place, but will be held in March 2025,” Selectman Riley said in a recent announcement. “Invitations to all new residents as well as non-profits will be mailed out in January. We are looking forward to having this wonderful event for new residents as well as those who have been here for years to learn what Saugus has to offer! More detailed information will be coming soon,” she said. Stay tuned for updates on “Saugus 4-1-1.” Legion Breakfasts today The American Legion Post 210 has begun its 2024-25 breakfast season.

Just go to Medicare’s Plan Finder Tool at Medicare.gov/fi nd-aplan. You can do a general search on the right side of the page, under the title “Continue without logging in.” If you wish to save your drugs and pharmacy information, you can log into or create your Medicare account on the left side of the page. Next, type in your ZIP code and choose the type of coverage you’re looking for, enter the drugs you take, choose the pharmacies you use, and indicate whether you are interested in a mail order option. The plan fi nder will then display results for plans in your area. Be aware that a plan may not cover all the drugs you take, but it may cover alternatives. It will also tell you if the plan has a deductible and how much the monthly premium is. Initially, the plans will be sorted by “lowest drug + premium costs.” This is the closest estimate to what you may pay out of pocket for your Part D coverage for the year. You can select “plan details” to fi nd out more specifi cs about coverage, including any coverage restrictions that might apply to your drugs. Before enrolling, it is a good idea to call the plan directly to confirm any information you read on plan fi nder, as information may not be completely up to date. If you need help, you can call Medicare at 800-633-4227 and they can do this for you over the phone. Or contact your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP), which provides free unbiased Medicare counseling. To fi nd a local SHIP counselor call 877-839-2675 or see ShipHelp.org. Any changes to coverage you make will take eff ect Jan. 1, 2025. If you take no action during open enrollment, your current coverage will continue next year. Extra Help If you’re lower-income and having a hard time paying your medication costs, you may be eligible for Medicare’s “Extra Help” program. This is a federal low-income subsidy that helps pay Part D premiums, deductibles and copayments. To be eligible, your annual income must be under $22,590 or $30,660 for married couples living together, and your assets (not counting your home, personal possessions, vehicles, life insurance policies or burial expenses) must be below $17,220 or $34,360 for married couples. For more information or to apply, call Social Security at 800-772-1213 or visit SSA.gov/medicare/partd-extra-help. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

HOSSACK SJC CASE T his was a Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) case decided in April of this year regarding words used in the Last Will and Testament of Heather Hossack. In this case, the testator, Heather Hossack used the words in a devise to her mother “if she survives me”. the SJC in this case took the position that the phrase “if she survives me”, together with other provisions in her Will, demonstrated, as a matter of law, the testator’s intent to avoid application of the anti-lapse statute under Mass General Laws, Chapter 190B, Section 2-603, which provides that where a devisee falls within a class of specific familial relatives of the testator and where the devisee predeceases the testator, the devise does not lapse but falls to the living issue of the predeceased devisee. The anti-lapse statute is based on a judgment about the typical testator’s probable intent to preserve the devise for the predeceased devisee’s lineal descendants, thereby keeping the devise in the family. A testator can avoid the default presumption by indicating a contrary intention shown by the terms of the Will. This case presented the question of whether a testator’s choice to make a fell into the residuary estate thereby rightfully belonging to Thomas Gibney. He was a caretaker neighbor of Heather and her health care agent. The SJC found that Heather Hossack intended to avoid the anti-lapse statute by including the words “if she survives me”. A devise, other than a redevise to an individual “if she survives me”, demonstrates a contrary intention to avoid the application of the anti-lapse statute. The SJC in this case answered this question in the positive, and the devise then fell into the residuary clause of the Will. Thomas Gibney was the residuary beneficiary of the Will and he therefore was entitled to the devise. Heather left cash assets to her 85 year-old mother, Ethel Wyman, “if she survives me”. Ethel died before Heather. Heather’s brother John Hossack filed the action in court claiming that he should have received the cash assets as a lineal descendant of his mother Ethel Wyman. The SJC found that the devise of the cash assets to Ethel Wyman lapsed and the cash assets siduary devise, that fails for any reason becomes part of the residuary estate. When a Will imposes no survivorship condition or alternate disposition on a devise if the devisee predeceases the testator, there is no indication in the terms of the Will that the testator contemplated the possibility that the devisee might predecease her. As such, the anti-lapse statute fills in the testator’s missing intent with a presumption against disinheritance of certain lineal descendants, allowing the devisee’s living issue (i.e. children or grandchildren) to take in the devisee’s stead. Courts will always review the Will as a whole in order to determine the testator’s intent. That is precisely how the SJC decided this very important case. Joseph D.
